California’s law makes water bills of state officials defining water rates and rules public record. Thus, The Center for Investigative Reporting examined their data and found the state’s representatives wasting up to eleven times as much water as the typical California household. Fresno City Councilman Oliver Baines is responsible for this number, using 4,000 gallons a day. After finding out that he had defective sprinklers using 1.24 million gallons of water in 2012, Baines now cut his usage to 149 gallons per day in March of this year. According to NBC, he apologized and admitted to not being “a model of water usage.”
Next to Baines’ wasting due to leaking sprinklers, Mike Soubirous, member of the Riverside City Council, was found to be the biggest water wasting official in the state. His desert home with a “1-acre lot with cascades of flowering shrubs and a weeping willow tree,” as NBC describes it, consumes enough water to serve eight households – more than 1 million gallons a year. Soubirous told NBC that he doesn’t know what to do to conserve water; “sell [his] house to set that example, or just abolish all [of his] shrubs?” In July, Riverside prohibited watering more than four days a week, which Subirous supported. However,
last month he was caught on video running his sprinklers seven consecutive nights. Furthermore, the CIR discovered that more than 50% water agency supervisors consume more water than the state’s average household. Randy Record, chairman of the board of the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California, for example, with more than 1,100 gallons per day in 2013, uses three times as much. While deciding on laws that save water and $500 fines for water wasters, water use among 60 percent of the officials has increased from 2012 to 2013. Please see page 4

Locally shot movie ‘Life Inside Out' - Screens Oct 17 Real Life Local Mom/Son Star in film After a multi-awards journey on the festival circuit, a new film is now having its theatrical debut exclusively in the LA market. Life Inside Out, remarkably big hearted without being corny, was shot primarily in the Pasadena/Monrovia/Highland Park area. Finneas O’Connell, the lead actor, only 17, who equips himself surprisingly well as an actor, singer, songwriter, and musician, begins a recurring role on America’s beloved comedy series “Modern Family”, which will begin to air just about the time the film debuts, as the new next door neighbor and son of Steve Zahn’s character. Maggie Baird co-wrote
the screenplay based on her own experiences as a mom of 2 who had almost forgotten how
much she loved singing and songwriting until it became clear that picking up the guitar again might be the only way to connect with her in-
creasingly distant son. His surprising moral support and musical curiosity led him to learning how to play ultimately write and sing his own songs (many featuring his mom). They harmonize beautifully!! Mothering is not Maggie’s only skill. Aside from co-writing the screenplay for Life Inside Out, she has worked extensively in television appearing in such productions as “The X Files,” “Chicago Hope,” “Six Feet Under,” “Manic,” and countless others. As a singersongwriter, she has released two full length albums and performs her original music in clubs around Los Angeles.

California’s Water Officials Neglect Their Own Laws and Waste Water
Family Members Can Ask Court to Seize Guns from Unstable Loved Ones
Continued from page 1
Trent Orr of the Earthjustice environmental law firm in San Francisco told NBC that officials “should be leading by example, not telling the
little people you regulate that they need to tighten their belts while you proceed as if nothing had happened and in fact use more water.”
On a more positive note and despite water wasters, water usage has dropped 11.5 percent in August compared to the previous year.

By jennifer schlueter After 22-year-old Elliot Rodger went on a shooting rampage this May in Isla Vista killing 6 and wounding 12 more people, officials called, again, for stricter gun control laws. California assemblywomen Nancy Skinner consequently sponsored a bill allowing guns to be seized from mentally ill individuals. The law, which was signed into effect last Tuesday, allows people to demand a court order to temporarily seize guns from family members who pose a threat to the community or themselves. In order to prevent these potentially dangerous individuals from buying firearms, they will also be added to a list. Prior to his planned
shooting, Elliot had legally acquired three guns, and his parents had repeatedly warned police of his unstable condition. California has recognized that “family members are the ones who most acutely understand when their loved ones are in a dangerous situation,” according to the executive director of the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence Josh Horwitz, and thus, has now become the first state of the country to allow them to ask for a court order seizing firearms. In other states only law enforcement officials have the right to do so. Skinner told the New York Times: “This puts California in the leadership on efforts to stop gun violence, and
it gives a very effective tool to law enforcement and families to intervene before a shooting tragedy occurs.” Opponents of the bill argue against it because it would take away the rights of the Second Amendment and is not an adequate measure to prevent mass shootings. According to the NY Times, Gun rights supporter and California assemblyman Tim Donnelly said: “Every one of us wants to prevent a mass shooting. The question is: Would this bill stop that? I don’t believe you can ever stop that with laws. I don’t believe you can legislate evil out of the hearts of men.”

dedicated her life to raising her family and serving her community through many philanthropic activities, including serving as an advisory board member for Optimist Youth Homes & Family Services. She has also enjoyed a forty year career in the real estate industry. On April 15, 2013, John, Karen, their son, son-in-law, grandson and close friends were standing at the finish line of the Boston Marathon to cheer on their daughter when the first of two bombs went off and their lives were changed forever. John was critically injured and endured eleven surgeries in twenty-eight days, spent fourteen days on life support, six weeks in intensive care and months of rehabilitation. The Odom’s were told John might not live, and if he did, he might have brain damage and would most likely never walk again. Fortunately, John survived and during his recovery his goals were to walk again, dance with his wife and play golf. Although paralyzed from the knee down on his left leg, his determination,
the love and support of family and friends and the prayers of thousands of people around the world have all helped him accomplish all of his goals and more. Alfred J. Landegger is the founder and managing partner of the Landegger Baron Law Group located in Encino, California. For more than two decades, the Firm has represented and defended Employers only in all matters related to employment law. As an advocate for Employer rights, Mr. Landegger has fought to restore balance in the law by providing business owners and non-profit organizations with education, prevention training and innovative problem-solving to keep them healthy and profitable.

As a direct result of the association with OYHFS, the Firm grew to appreciate the value and impact that the non-profit world
has on all of us. Today, Landegger Baron counts over 50 non-profits as clients and works hand in hand with them by providing free seminars and workshops, legal services and training, pro-bono work, and of course, participating wherever possible in their fundraising activities.

Announcing the Cali4nia Pass: One Pass, Four Iconic California Mountains California’s ski/snowboard season is less than two months away and there’s already major news coming out of the mountains. Officials at Mammoth Mountain and Bear Mountain/ Snow Summit today announced a new joint pass that will provide unrestricted, seasonlong access to Mammoth Mountain, Bear Mountain, Snow Summit and June Mountains. “This is all about providing the best value we can to California skiers and snowboarders,” said Rusty Gregory, CEO of Mammoth Mountain. “The Cali4nia Pass cuts through the clutter. It is far and away the best product for California skiers and riders as it allows you to ski when you want and where you want,” said Gregory. “This new pass will offer Southern California skiers and snowboarders the best of both worlds; the convenience of Big Bear, plus the big-mountain experience of Mammoth,” says Chris Riddle VP of Marketing at Big Bear Mountain Resorts. “We are extremely happy to announce this unprecedent-
ed partnership which will provide a versatile Season Pass option that will first be available at Hot Dawgz and Hand Rails, our winter kickoff party at Bear Mountain on September 27.” The pass will go on sale Sept. 27 at a preseason price of $689 for a limited time. Mammoth MVP pass holders who’ve already renewed for the upcoming season will automatically be upgraded. Current Bear Mountain/ Snow Summit 2014-15 winter pass holders will have the opportunity to upgrade to the new Cali4nia Pass. In addition to lift access, Cali4nia Pass holders will receive lodging, equipment rental and food discounts at the respective resorts. The $689 price is for adults (age 19-64). Pricing for Youth (1318) $519, Child (5-12) $199 and Senior (65-79) $369. For more information on the pass, visit www.Calif4niaPass.com Earlier today, Mammoth Resorts, LLC announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire Big Bear Mountain Resorts. Big Bear Mountain Resorts includes both Bear Moun-
tain and Snow Summit, the largest and most popular of southern California’s ski and snowboard resorts that host nearly 800,000 winter visits annually. Mammoth Resorts, LLC is affiliated with Mammoth Mountain and June Mountain resorts, located in the Eastern Sierra. The combination of these four iconic California mountain resorts creates diverse and unique offerings of both summer and winter experiences for day trips, weekend getaways and extended vacations. Bear Mountain and Snow Summit, located a short drive from everywhere in southern California, with their full complement of outdoor activities from action sports to first-time family experiences, provide an excellent fit with the world class, big-mountain destination experience offered at Mammoth. Closing is subject to certain conditions, including Big Bear Mountain Resort shareholder approval and transfer of the U.S. Forest Service Permit that permits operations on nearly 1,500 acres of the San Bernardino National Forest.

sary. In great condition, valued at $24,000, the now yellow bike, was green when it was stolen 42 years ago on March 4, 1972. It was taken from the backyard of a police officer’s residence in Charlotte-Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. He passed away on October 7, 2010, nearly four years ago to this day. His oldest son, Edgar Howard Johnson, Jr., is very excited about its return and
said, “My Dad would be tickled to get it back if he was still alive. This is so great; absolutely amazing; so wonderful. I remember my Dad picking me up from school with it one time. When the kids asked me if I was gonna ride on that, I told them I sure am. I miss my Dad so much. We used to talk once every week. He’s with me in my heart. This is like a piece of him is coming back home.”
