METROPOLITAN GENERAL MANAGER ISSUES STATEMENT ON PROPOSED STATEWIDE OUTDOOR WATER RESTRICTIONS
Jeffrey Kightlinger, general manager of the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California, issues the following statement on proposed outdoor water restrictions approved Tuesday by the State Water Resources Control Board: “Asking all urban areas to implement their own outdoor water restrictions is a tailored, effective next step in managing this drought. Curbing outdoor water use can create the largest savings, particularly during the hot summer months. This is the right next step at the right time. “The state board proposal respects the different local approaches to conservation management and reflects the seriousness of a drought that has yet to end. Metropolitan’s water reserves are adequate for the coming months, but a continued drought will prompt even greater restrictions.” -Photo by Terry Miller
California approves $500 fine for water wasters BY JENNIFER SCHLUETER In January, Governor Jerry Brown asked Californians to reduce their water use by 20% because, for some parts of California, 2013 had been the driest year ever recorded and no relief seemed in sight. However, a recent state board survey shows that the statewide water use in the month of May has increased by 1% compared to the same month of the three previous years. Whereas the May use declined 13% in the SacraPlease see page 4
TITANIUM TOILET SCAM Forestry IN PASADENA FLUSHED Moves OUT BY CITY Into Water
Smuggler concealing cocaine inside surfboard gets 5-year prison term
Apparently somer Pasadena Water and Power (“PWP”) customers have been approached by a company named Titanium Power, an active vendor in Southern California offering toilet replacements at no cost to the resident, according to a memo sent to City Manager Michael Beck. Titanium Power employees make door-to-door visits and line up toilets in neighborhoods throughout the city. The company often misrepresents themselves as “partners” of the city, providing city logos on their flyers and other misleading information in an attempt to coerce residents into replacing their toilets. PWP stresses that it is
A Pomona man arrested in February at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) for attempting to smuggle nearly seven pounds of cocaine out of the U.S. concealed inside a hollowed out surfboard was sentenced Monday to 60 months in federal prison. Jesse Edgardo Herrera, 31, pleaded guilty in May to one coun t of possession with intent to distribute cocaine. Herrera was taken into custody Feb. 26 at LAX by special agents with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI). Herrera’s arrest came after U.S. Customs and Border

Titanium Power has been distributing and installing toilets and then submitting claims for a $200 rebate offered by Metropolitan Water District as part of PWP’s water conservation program. PWP is not responsible for the products provided and installed by Titanium Power. Like with any contractor, PWP encourages residents to obtain multiple quotes, check references, and check product reviews.

Protection (CBP) officers observed irregularities in the surfboard he had checked with his baggage on an outbound Qantas Airlines flight destined for Sydney, Australia. Herrera originally claimed to CBP officers that he was traveling to Australia for vacation. When CBP removed Herrera’s surfboard from its carrying case, they detected a strong smell of fresh lacquer or spray paint. A subsequent physical inspection and an x-ray of the surfboard showed several irregularities. CBP officers then used a saw to cut off the end of the surfboard, exposing four plasPlease see page 6

BARRY McGUIRE of “Eve of Destruction” fame to sing in Arcadia July 27 Barry McGuire stepped into the public eye in 1963 on the Andy Williams Show as the gravelly voiced lead singer of The New Christy Minstrels. He launched his musical career with the millionsellers “Green, Green” and “Green Back Dollar.” In 1965, at the heart of the peace movement, McGuire went solo. His growing awareness of social hypocrisy was expressed in his third hit “Eve of Destruction” which echoed around the world as an anthem of the times. Three years later, Barry was cast as the male lead in the original Broadway production of “Hair.” Once again his voice was heard proclaiming the ideals of a radical generation. Dick Clark said, “When world events collide with ‘Rock
THE CAL PHIL CHORALE TAKES CENTER STAGE SATURDAY JULY 26 Magic, Fantasy and Adventure, the third concert of Maestro Victor Vener and his California Philharmonic’s 2014 Summer Season, already has people singing praise for the captivating program that mixes suites of music from The Lion King, Beauty & The Beast and The Little Mermaid along with classical masterpieces such as Dukas’ Sorcerer’s Apprentice and Bach’s Toccata and Fugue. Joining the world class orchestra for the concert is the acclaimed 100-plus memberstrong Cal Phil Chorale, led for the past seven seasons by the multi-talented Chorus Maestra Marya Basaraba. Known as “The Voice of Cal Phil,” Cal Phil Chorale is composed of some of California’s best choral singers, whose beautiful sound is the perfect complement to the rich, sumptuous tones of the California Philharmonic. “I personally select, prepare and deliver the chorus to Maestro Vener as an ‘instrument’! Just as the brass players create a section, as the violins, violas, celli and bass players make up a section; the chorus is section, an instrument that becomes part of the overall ensemble,” said Basaraba, who also operates a private voice studio in Pasadena and serves as the Director of Music Ministries at Grace Lutheran Church and the Choir Director at Temple Akiba, both in Century City, as well as serving as the Resident Chorus Maestra of the Golden State Pops Orchestra among others. “I have a
huge roster of singers who have joined us for previous seasons and many of them start writing to me early in the New Year to inquire about the Cal Phil Chorale. It’s very gratifying to have so many people who plan their summer schedules around the Cal Phil season!” Calling Maestro Vener
“a master of programming,” Basaraba reflects on the opening concert of this season which included a fabulous rendition of the 1812 Overture by Tchaikovsky featuring the Cal Phil Chorale singing in Russian what was originally scored for a cello quartet. “It was absolutely stunning,” said Basaraba. “I was totally enthralled by the whole work and could not have been more thrilled to have prepared the Chorale for this extraordinary arrangement.” This weekend and next, audiences have more opportunities to delight in, and undoubtedly sing along with, the Cal Phil Chorale duringMagic, Fantasy and Adventure on July 26 at Santa Anita Race Track and
August 3 at Walt Disney Concert Hall. In addition to performing songs from Disney favorites Beauty And The Beast, The Lion King and The Little Mermaid, the concert includes a phenomenal arrangement of music from the film, The Mission, in an orchestral suite that features the Chorale. “Cal Phil Chorale Maestra Marya Basaraba is not only a brilliant Chorus Master but a spectacular soloist,” said Maestro Vener. “She and the Chorale are tremendous assets to the California Philharmonic and to creating many memorable moments in our concerts.” “From our first collaboration in 2008, the orchestra has been tremendously acknowledging of this Chorale which I can tell you, is quite uncommon,” continued Basaraba. “The Chorale’s enthusiasm, love and support have been absolutely awesome over the years and never as precious as when I am called to the stage by Victor to share the bow with them either as a solo artist or simply as their Maestra!” Audiences throughout Southern California have options to attend extremely different experiences of Cal Phil’s one-of-a-kind concerts at two iconic venues; every other Saturday evening at Santa Anita Race Track on the infield with the beautiful unobstructed backdrop of the San Gabriel Mountains or Sunday matinees at Los Angeles’ most vaunted music destination, the incomparable Walt Disney Concert Hall.

& Roll,’ you get Barry McGuire.” In the early ‘70s Barry’s life took a new direction. Having found his answer to the “Eve of Destruction, as he describes it, “by stumbling into the Fullness of Truth,” he left Hollywood and set out to do whatever he could to bring about positive change. Barry’s transformation

There’s an astounding music scene in Pasadena but not everyone yet knows about the latest really cool gig which will kick start July 28 at the popular Red White and Bluezz next to Pasadena Playhouse. It is actually a great marriage of musicians and food industry professionals who want a night away- for those in the business to let their hair down, so to speak. The new patio will be open and the band invites area musicians to bring an instrument and jam with some of the top names in the business. Some might call it ‘Smooth Jazz’, others ‘contemporary’ to some ‘Neo Soul..’ But in the blending of Jazz, Funk, R&B and Blues the band Tomorrow’s Forcast likes to think of it as “Groove Music”. “Whatever style we happen to be floating in the music will keep your feet tapping and your ears smiling! We are very fortunate to have a few of LA’s Best session Cats here to groove for YOU ! We invite you to evening of great music that promises to be good to your Earhole!!” Touch Singleton said.

Mike Gatto Moves to Adjourn the State Assembly in Memory of American Hero Louis Zamperini Assemblyman Mike Gatto (D-Los Angeles) honored the life and legacy of local Hollywood Hills resident Louis Zamperini by moving to adjourn the Assembly floor session in his memory. A World War II prisoner of war survivor, inspirational speaker, and Olympic distance runner, Zamperini was a true American hero. He died of pneumonia on July 2, 2014 at the age of 97. Zamperini lived in Gatto’s 43rd Assembly District. “I got to know Louis Zamperini when we sat next to one another during a flight one evening,” said Gatto. “He was a very memorable guy, and humble and charming despite his in-
credible life story. His tales are burned in my mind.” The child of poor Italian immigrants in Torrance, California, Zamperini became a celebrated runner, representing the United States in the 1936 Berlin Olympics. Later, as a bombardier for the Army Air Corps, Zamperini survived for fortyseven days on a raft in the Pacific Ocean, rescuing two of his crewmates after their plane crashed behind enemy lines. Zamperini survived the ordeal by eating birds, fish, and sharks, only to be captured and tortured as a POW at “Execution Island” in the Japanese-occupied Marshall Islands. Overcoming the continued abuse,
Zamperini survived the war and eventually returned to Japan to offer forgiveness for his tormentors and carry the torch for the 1998 Olympics in Nagano. He leaves behind a son, Luke; a daughter, Cynthia; and a legacy of perseverance that will be memorialized in the feature film Unbroken, directed by Angelina Jolie, which will be released this Christmas. Gatto’s motion to adjourn in memory of Zamperini was published on July 3, 2014. A spoken motion will also be made by Assemblyman Al Muratsuchi (D-Torrance), who represents Zamperini’s hometown, when the legislature returns in August.

California approves water fines mento River area, it rose 8% in coastal Southern California. Felicia Marcus, chairwoman of the State Water Resources Control Board, warned: “People really don’t understand the gravity of the drought, particularly in urban California, where people are hundreds of miles from their water source.” This drought is the third-worst ever recorded and the worst in decades. Therefore, last Tuesday, the state of California has chosen to impose strict fines of up to $500 for over-watering grass, hosing down hard surfaces such as sidewalks and driveways, running fountains that do not recirculate water, or wasting too much water on car washes by using a hose without a nozzle. Marcus explained after the vote: “Our goal here is to light a fire under those who aren’t yet taking the drought seriously. We’re all in this together,” she added. “This is our attempt to say ... this is the least that urban Californians can do.” Starting August 1, the new rules, which have been approved on a 4-0
vote by the State Water Resources Control Board will stay in effect for 270 days, and possibly longer, if the drought continues. According to the Desert Sun, “last week Lake Mead, the nation’s largest reservoir, reached its lowest level since it was filled by Colorado River water in the 1930s. As of Tuesday, the lake surface elevation was at 1,081.60 feet, below the previous record low of 1,081.85 set in 2010.” On Tuesday, the day of the ruling, the University of California Davis released a study, which claims that the impacts of the drought will cost California $2.2 billion and 17,100 jobs. National Geographic illustrates: “According to the UC Davis report, the state’s agricultural sector faces a net water shortage of 1.6 million acre-feet this year, which will cause losses of $810 million in crop revenue and $203 million in lost dairy and other livestock value, plus additional groundwater pumping costs of $454 million. These direct costs to agriculture total $1.5 billion. When the job losses are factored in, the total eco-
nomic impact to the state economy is estimated to be $2.2 billion.” Marcus realized the survey’s reality: “We are facing the worst drought impact that we or our grandparents have ever seen. And, more important, we have no idea when it will end. This drought’s impacts are being felt by communities all over California. Fields are fallowed; communities are running out of water, fish and wildlife will be devastated.” She urges: “The least that urban Californians can do is to not waste water on outdoor uses. It is in their self-interest to conserve more, now, to avoid far more harsh restrictions, if the drought lasts into the future. These regulations are meant to spark awareness of the seriousness of the situation, and could be expanded if the drought wears on and people do not act.” Signs on freeways and the Save our Water campaign among others try to raise awareness to make Californians reduce their water use. Lady Gaga supports the latter and said: “Do your part to save water.”
Glendale Library, Arts, & Culture presents Citizen Tanouye A film by Robert Horsting and Craig Yahata
Citizen Tanouye follows the life-changing journey of eight Torrance High School students who set out to uncover the story of Ted Tanouye, a Japanese American Torrance High School alumnus, World War II hero, and Medal of Honor recipient. As the ethnically diverse group dig in to discover Tanouye ‘ s story they uncover the civil rights abuses suffered by Japanese Americans such as Tanouye’s family during the war years. The students plowed through archival materials , searchedonline, and conducted insightful interviews with war veterans to get to the bottom of what Tanouye and his family experienced. Tech/Sergeant Ted Tanouye died at the age of 24 as a result of wounds received from a mine blast during combat. He was a
member of the renowned 442nd Regimental Combat Team, comprised mostly of Japanese American soldiers. Tanouye’ s valiant act ions earned him the accolades of his fellow soldiers and many posthumously awarded medals, including the Medal of Honor. Tanouye’s family was incarcerated at internment camps with other Japanese-Americans, including confinements at both Jerome War Relocation Center and Rohwer Relocation Center, even as he served and eventually died an American war hero. The students bring Tanouyes story into sharp focus as the relevance of his experiences to their own lives becomes all too apparent. Documentary filmmaker and Glendale resident Robert Horsting produced and co-directed the
film with Craig Yahata. His work on the film germinated from his voluntary participation in the Hanashi Oral History Program of the Go For Broke National Education Center, designed to preserve the legacy of Japanese American soldiers in the US Army during WWII. He was moved by how openly theveterans shared their life experiences and what they had done to prove their loyalty. Original music for the film was composed by Stephen James Taylor. The documentary film Citizen Tanouye will be screened on August 14,2014 at 7:00 pm at the Glendale Central Library, 222 E. Harvard, Glendale. The presentation is free and open to the public.

President Signs Executive Order Banning Discrimination Against LGBT Workers Rep. Adam Schiff (DCA), vice chair of the Congressional LGBT Equality Caucus (Equality Caucus), released the following statement after President signed an executive order last week prohibiting federal contractors and agencies from discriminating against employees on the bases of sexual orientation and gender identity: “With Republicans still unwilling to bring up the Employment NonDiscrimination Act in the House – despite bipartisan support during passage in the Senate – the President was right to act to protect LGBT workers in the federal government from being discriminated against. We should be using every avenue available to fight discrimination – it’s just the right thing to do. “Nevertheless, this does not free Congress from the responsibility to pass
ENDA and protect all workers from discrimination and we must continue to call for such action, and work to narrow the exemption granted to religious organizations.” Schiff earlier led an effort urging President Obama to issue such an Executive Order. The announcement is an important step towards ending discrimination against LGBT employees and ensuring that they are judged based on the quality of their work and not because of who they are or who they love. The executive order, when implemented, will only protect employees of federal contractors and federal agencies. Schiff is an original cosponsor of the bipartisan Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA), which passed the U.S.
Senate in November 2013. ENDA currently has 205 cosponsors in the U.S. House of Representatives. The Employment NonDiscrimination Act would establish basic protections in the workplace to prevent discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. There are currently only 18 states (including California) and the District of Columbia that prohibit discrimination on bases of sexual orientation and gender identity, and an additional 3 states that prohibit discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation. ENDA would provide a basic level of protection against workplace discrimination in a manner modeled closely on Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and would apply to private employers as well as local, state, and federal government employers.
Schools Chief Torlakson Announces Millions in Grants to Improve Charter Schools Twenty agencies will share $7.5 million in federal grants to develop or improve charter schools in California, State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson announced today as he released the funding results for two grants. “These grants will help districts create high-quality charter schools, and help already successful charter schools share their best practices,” Torlakson said. The $7.5 million in funding is being distributed through two sources: the Public Charter Schools Grant Program Planning and Implementation Grant (Round 2) and the Public Charter Schools Grant Program Dissemination Subgrant. In the Public Charter Schools Grant Program Planning and Implementation Grant (Round 2), 13 school districts and nonprofit agencies will receive $5.4 million in
federal funding. The grants were awarded to agencies that are likely to develop and open highquality charter schools. The grantees were selected based on the quality of their application outlining how they would improve student academic achievement. For the list of grantees, visit the California Department of Education’s (CDE) Funding Results: Public Charter Schools Grant Program Planning and Implementation Grant (Round 2) Web page. In the Public Charter Schools Grant Program Dissemination Subgrants, seven districts and nonprofit agencies are receiving $2.1 million in federal funding. The grants must be used to share their best practices with other schools on how to significantly improve student achievement. The grants were made available to charter schools
that have been serving students for at least three consecutive years, met Academic Performance Index growth targets for at least two of the prior three years, have high levels of parent satisfaction, and demonstrated substantial progress in improving student academic achievement. For the list of grantees, visit the CDE’s Funding Results: Public Charter Schools Grant Program Dissemination Sub-grant Web page. Charter schools are public schools, which can provide instruction in any of the K-12 grades. They are typically created or organized by a group of teachers, parents, or community leaders or by a community-based organization. California became the second state in the nation in 1992 to adopt public charter school legislation, and there are now 1,161 active charter schools in the state.

Forestry Moves Into Water Management est System land to address concerns about depletion of ground water storage, reduction in stream-flow, loss of ecosystems, saltwater intrusion and changes in ground water quality, as well as impacts of human activities. US Forest Service mission statement …”to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of the Nation’s forests and grasslands to meet the needs of present and future generations” is a laudable role but leaves many of us who depend on ground water as our main source of water to wonder what role Forestry feels it plays in managing and securing that resource for the human arena. Forestry unequivocally believes because the federal government set aside land as the National Forest System, along with a series of laws regarding groundwater and various bodies of water whose source is on their land that NFS is the keeper of groundwater and surface water. At question are states’ rights over water within their borders and regional water regulations and
laws. The NFS Technical Guide points out certain federal laws related to water management that Forestry says

servation & Recovery Act of 1976 (RCRA) – gives EPA the authority to control hazardous waste from “cradle to grave” enforcing generation, transportation, treatment, storage and disposal. Office of Water (OW) within EPA ensures safe drinking water and maintains/ restores … “oceans, watersheds, and their
and wildlife”. OW is charged with oversight of agencies, including Forestry, to establish safe drinking water. 3. Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA or Superfund) – again, EPA is in charge and responsible for clean-up of old hazardous material
contaminated sites and reimbursement to the government for costs involved in the cleanup. Amendments in 1986, known as SARA, gave more responsibility to states and more input from citizens. No specific mention or assigned responsibilities mentioned for Forestry. I found parts of the document a little confusing when it referenced sections I was unable to track down, like: “In addition, judicial doctrine and waterrights case law provides the legal interpretations of Federal and State statutes about usage and management of ground water. The national ground water policy sets out the framework in which ground water resources are to be managed on NFS lands.” There was nothing I could find that once again gave Department of Agriculture or Forestry any control over water or water source, above or below ground. When the Technical Management Guide talks about a national ground water policy the closest to that is NEPA (National

Environmental Policy Act) overseen by EPA and provides: “ … federal agencies [must] integrate environmental values into their decision-making processes by considering the environmental impacts of their proposed actions and reasonable alternatives to those actions. To meet NEPA requirements, federal agencies prepare a detailed statement known as an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). EPA reviews and comments on EISs prepared by other federal agencies, maintains a national filing system for all EISs, and assures that its own actions comply with NEPA.” That seems to me to mean the National Recreation Area legislation and proposed Wild & Scenic River legislation will, under any circumstances, no matter who is designated as “in charge”, have to go through an environmental review process. It also seems the Forestry will be under the gun to go through the permit process when they propose projects within their jurisdiction. Continued from page 3

Smuggler gets 5 years tic packages inside that collectively contained just over three kilograms of cocaine. “Every day, CBP Officers at LAX and around the nation carefully scrutinize travelers who are coming into the country, as well as those who are departing, looking for any indicators that those individuals may be involved with the smuggling of narcotics, currency, or other prohibited items,” said Todd C. Owen, CBP director of field operations in Los Angeles. “This seizure, subsequent investigation and prosecution highlights the fine work that federal border security agencies perform each day, often behind the scenes and unbeknown to the general public.”
CBP officers alerted HSI special agents who responded to the scene and placed Herrera under arrest. HSI’s investigation into the broader circumstances surrounding the smuggling attempt is ongoing. “This case shows yet again the lengths to which smugglers will go in an effort to conceal their contraband,” said Claude Arnold, special agent in charge of HSI Los Angeles. “It also demonstrates that such subterfuge is frequently futile in the face of our joint enforcement efforts.” Authorities estimate the cocaine seized in connection with this smuggling attempt would have sold for more than $750,000 on the street in Australia.
