The occasion marked the one-year anniversary of the killing of the 78-yearold former educator and father of Assemblyman Mike Gatto, D-Los Angeles. The elder Gatto was fatally shot Nov. 12, 2013, in his home in the 2800 block of Bright Lane in Silver Lake. The murder remains unsolved and a reward of $50,000 is being offered for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for the death.

Hugo Reid student on 2015 All-American Chess Team
Arcadia 5th grader Joaquin Perkins, who attends Hugo Reid Elementary School, has been named to the 2015 AllAmerica Chess Team. This is his second time being named to this prestigious team. It’s a rather extraordinary honor. They have him listed in the Age 9 category even though he is 10 because their criteria uses ages of January 1st, 2014. “The All-America Chess Team was created in 1987 to honor the very best players ages 18 and under. The team, one of the highest national honors attainable by a young chess player, is selected on the basis of age, rating, and activities during that year, similar to the selection process of 'all conference' sports teams.” Joaquin has won seven national chess championships and competes internationally.

Historic Pasadena Civic Auditorium Exhibition Hall undergoing major renovation for February 2015 opening Another chapter in Pasadena’s great and colorful history will return to life in February, when the historic Pasadena Civic Auditorium Exhibition Hall – or Exhibit Hall “C” as it is known – reopens after last serving as an exhibition hall and ballroom nearly 40 years ago. Constructed in 1931 and opened in February 1932 as part of the original Pasadena Civic Auditorium, the exhibit hall was used for conventions, dances and various exhibits. It was re-purposed as home to the Pasadena Ice Skating Center in 1976. The hall held the ice rink until 2011, when the Pasa-
dena Ice Skating Center moved to a new, standalone facility to the east of the Civic Auditorium. “We’re delighted to bring this historic renovated exhibition hall back on line as part of our overall convention center,” said Michael Ross, chief executive officer of the Pasadena Center Operating Company, which oversees the Pasadena Convention Center, Civic Auditorium and Ice Skating Center. “This major restoration project maintains the building’s celebrated architecture with modern amenities, and it adds to our capacity to host additional and bigger world-class trade
shows, consumer shows, conventions, banquets and other events.” Renovations to the 17,000-square-foot hall began during the summer and are estimated to cost $900,000. The restored exhibition hall is scheduled to reopen on Feb. 9 with a ribbon-cutting ceremony and the Liberty/Conceived concert, a part of MUSE/ IQUE’s Uncorked Series. For more information about the Pasadena Civic Auditorium and Pasadena Convention Center, contact the Pasadena Convention and Visitors Bureau at (800) 307-7977 or visit www.VisitPasadena.com

Driver uninjured after Tuesday collision with canopy at Arcadia Gas Station
Go Metro to College Football Fall is football season and Metro is the smart choice for fans attending USC and UCLA home games. To reach the LA Coliseum, exit the Metro Expo Line at the Expo/Vermont or Expo Park/USC stations. For the Rose Bowl, take the Metro Gold Line to the Memorial Park Station.
Arcadia Firefighters responded to a reported traffic collision with entrapment at 900 W. Duarte Rd in the city limits at approximately 6:53 AM Tuesday morning. First arriving fire units found a Lays Potato Chips Bobtail truck that had struck the canopy of the gas station making it structurally unstable for any public access. Pasadena Fire Departments Urban Search & Rescue was requested to the scene to assist.Traffic to the area was closed for several blocks. No injuries were reported to the driver of the truck, and one gas leak was quickly made static by fire personnel. -Photo by Landon Jensen (www.landonjensen.com)
Yes, it’s true…now EVERYTHING comes in bacon flavor J&D’s Foods is a funny company, really darn funny. They’ve just launched Bacon Moustache Wax among other things! Yes, the world’s first Bacon-scented Moustache Wax is available just in time for November. Like their press release said… ”As always, you’re welcome.” Bacon Moustache Wax combines “two of the most powerful forces in the universe - cured meat and moustaches - into one powerful, gravity-defying wax,” according to founders Justin and Dave. According to this dynamic duo, “Moustaches are a mark of power, distinction and class. They make the wearer more attractive and increase cognitive ability when stroked. People with moustaches are generally very successful in their chosen fields and held in high regard - individuals like Teddy Roosevelt, Salvador Dali, Magnum PI, the Monopoly Man, Lando Calrissian, Ron Burgundy,
Wyatt Earp, and Ulysses S. Grant all attribute their incredible successes to their prominent mouth brows.” That being said, as a vegetarian who has a moustache (Terry Miller)…Bacon would be the last thing I’d want my man hairs to smell like. However, I’m apparently in the minority. Everything is better with bacon, a colleague informs me. “Bacon is the moustache of meats. Its smell is intoxicating, its taste is invigorating, and its versatility is renowned.” And, since we're in the middle of that monthlong charity mustache grow known as Movember, the J&D's folks have pledged a buck from the sale of each tin to the Movember Foundation, which works to raise funds and awareness for men's health issues. Bacon Moustache Wax is available starting last week at www.BaconMakesTheMan.com for $12.99 per tin and for every tin purchased, they will donate $1

to the Movember Foundation for men's health. Developed in partnership with The Seattle Soap Shop (www.SeattleSoapShop.com), Bacon Moustache Wax is handmade in small batches from the highest quality beeswax and petroleum jelly. Both pliable and aromatic, it provides lasting volume and superior moustache control. “So whether you're training for the World Beard & Moustache Championships, are a Mo Bro or impressing that special someone, one thing is for sure - your upper lip will never smell so good," say the guys at J&D Foods. Whatever next?

American Legion Auxiliary Unit & Post 247 honors those who have served There are many ways to honor the ones that have served this great land of ours. This Veterans Day a great big Thank You went out to all local Veterans far and wide. "As one veteran to all, I salute you all! We should honor ourselves' for keeping our flag free and secure," said Richard Zelonis, e-letter@vetfriends.com. For many veterans, our nation was important enough to endure long separations from their families, miss the births of their children, freeze in sub-zero temperatures, bake in wild jungles, lose limbs, and, far too often, lose their lives. Warriors need advocates and that is why The American Legion exists. We are here to serve veterans, their families and our communities. Veterans need each other, but, more importantly, our country needs our veterans. The American Legion Auxiliary Unit 247 in Arcadia provided a survival goody package and grati-
tude card to their local veteran heroes at American Legion post 247. Through the annual poppy program Marian McKinney and Sara ArnettMocco honored our local veterans by creating the Memorial Wall at AL post 247. At the end of WW I, The American Legion adopted the poppy as a symbol of freedom and the blood sacrificed by troops in wartime. The money collected can be used only to help veterans and active service members in need and not for administrated costs. Past Post Commander Scott Sinclair honored those who have served our country "on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month" during the Veterans Day Ceremony at Monrovia Library Park. All were welcomed to attend. Temple City High School marched in the La Palma Veterans Parade. The Boy Scouts retired flags at American Legion post 261.
Other AL events included: American Legion National Vice Commander William Bryant will represent the Legion at the White House during its Veteran Day breakfast, as well as at ceremonies at the Vietnam Memorial Wall. Verna Jones, the new executive director of the Washington office, appeared on C-SPAN to discuss veterans' issues. A group of Legion family members marched in New York City's "America's Parade," while another group marched in the San Diego parade. The American Legion Amateur Radio Club hosted a special on-air tribute. You can show your support for these great men and women by hiring a veteran in your workplace, visiting a VA hospital or donating to a veterans program. Your local Arcadia American Legion thanks you for all your service and support. We are located at 615 E. Live Oak Ave., Arcadia, CA. (626) 445-4822.

Mansions in the crosshairs The recent, local uproar regarding newly built, oversized homes and the resulting impact on vintage neighborhoods is not an issue limited to this city. Communities across the country are reacting, mostly negatively, to the proliferation of so-called “McMansions” for a very straightforward reason - they simply do not fit into the nearby areas. That the problem seems to be growing in Monrovia is particularly disturbing, given that in order to construct a new home, one must be torn down. (Vacant land here is non-existent.) Because of the high density of pre-1940s houses within the town, that usually entails the demolition of a vintage home. This alteration of the urban landscape can have profound effects, from changing property values to limiting the creation of new businesses. Monrovia is at a cross-

roads. It can choose to ignore the immediate crisis and assume a “business as usual” posture. As a consequence of that inaction, houses that do not qualify as “potential landmarks” will continue to be relegated to the not worthy pile, ignoring their role as contributors to a potential historic district and to the overall character of the community as a whole. Or Monrovia can make some difficult decisions to reconcile the issue
of property rights versus preservation that is at the heart of the matter. We have been given an inheritance – the architectural heritage of the community. We have the privilege of enjoying it while we are here and a responsibility to leave it better than how we found it after we have left. I sincerely hope we fulfill that obligation.

The City of Sierra Madre raised the water rates for two basic reasons. They said so because the City would have to buy water and that would cost $260.00/per acre foot. They also said that $945,000 of long-term debt was paid for by the water bill income. They also raised the water meter and sewer charges just to make sure that all bases are covered with these increases. The purchase of the water with cash dollars has no basis in fact since the City has not written a check to pay for any water as yet. The truth is the water is acquired by the use of credits that were paid by property taxes going directly to the San Gabriel Metropolitan Water District over many years in the past. Since this is the first time of need,

there are thousands of credits that have accumulated which also covers the water district's operating expenses. The long-term debt is combined with other longterm debt and a wire transfer is made to the Bank of New York Bond Trustee and has been charged to the Administration Department, which is where it should be. The City, as a whole, is the liable party to these many long-term debts and not a particular department of the City. Is the real reason that the City increased the water rates because they first started a conservation program of water use and the people responded for a greater reduction than they were asked to do. This reduced the income to the City by more
than $13M. This is probably the major reason for raising the rates and not simply a socalled water shortage. The truth is, the operating costs of the Water Department have gone down due to not using the water pumps. This results in large savings on electricity and chemical treatments. If the City Government were to be truthful to themselves, then they would cancel one or both of the rate increases of this year and reduce all the other restrictions that they have imposed on the people. Try putting themselves in the position of serving the people at the lowest cost to the customers. TO THY-SELF BE TRUE! Sierra Madre Watchman
Obama no FDR that have burst wasting hundreds of gallons of water in this drought! Obama keeps mentioning finding “common ground.” It does not work. He has to make “deals” like Lyndon Johnson did to get Medicare through. He has to be a “politician” to get things done—make trades.
F.D.R. knew how to do it and he was calm, knew how to talk to the people and was also shrewd. A president has to be clever. He got this country through the depression and vanquished Hitler. Obama seems very likeable but weak. C. Jenson Temple City

Letters to the Editor (Cont.) Not just one day, but a lasting commitment By Susan Shaer and Karen Camper
Let me to first state the obvious. Veterans Day is for those who return from war. Memorial Day is for those who have not survived. Two days to remind us in a multitude of ways how to remember, and also act. Our veterans need us now. On Veterans Day, it’s one day to think hard. What do we contemplate when we launch into war? Do we plan for the seemingly endless painful plight of veterans –their families, friends and communities? Planning for outcomes is common sense. A skydiver won’t fling herself into the air without considering a fall. A doctor does not operate without knowing the patient’s recovery plan. Our federal government invests in education to better education outcomes. Why don’t we plan to pay for the long range costs –physical and
mental – of those we send to war? In not so long ago wars, soldiers died on the fields of battle or were MIA (Missing in Action). Modern battlefield medics provide on the spot medical assistance, so more soldiers return home. Their wounds, however, often last a lifetime. As do the costs. Headlines scream that our recent wars leave vets longing for help. Lines and waiting for health care. Joblessness makes housing an effort for many, leaving them homeless, or living in squalid shelters. Veterans’ families suffer with them, they break apart, or, worse yet, suffer domestic violence and sometimes suicide or worse. This pain is public. Widely known. Our leaders hold that they take us into war with veterans in mind. I have to trust that it’s true. But I ask that they demand
that as we pay for war, we plan and pay for the outcomes we know will follow. Right after the election, Congress may debate and consider an Authorization of Military Force for Iraq and Syria. At the same time, they will possibly consider passing budgets to fund government programs, including an outrageous emergent sum to fund wars which is essentially a slush fund on top of the already mushrooming Pentagon budget. On its face, just that slush fund is outrageous. We already fund the Pentagon; they should not just be on contingency and then ask for billions on top of that to make war. That is especially true if there is not an end to war in sight, and there is no additional funding for the veterans who will come from that war, or wars. Some are trying to recognize what we have
Judy Chu's NRA proposal questioned When President Barack Obama signed a proclamation last month, designating parts of the San Gabriel Mountains as a national monument, Editor Terry Miller asked readers, "What good will it do and how much will it cost?" ("Confusion Mounts Regarding Judy Chu's NRA Proposal," October 23, 2014). In August, Congresswoman Judy Chu asked for -and got -- President Obama to fast-track her bill (HR 4858), designating the San Gabriel Mountains as a National Recreation Area, by using his power of executive order. NRA opponents assailed the
order as "a land grab" and "a surprising bypass of the democratic process." Robert C. Newman II, who finished second to Arnold Schwarzenegger in the Republican primary election in 2006, was among the protesters who filled both sides of the 57 Freeway overpass on October 13, when Obama signed the order at Frank G. Bonelli Park in San Dimas. Holding a hand-lettered sign ("No U.N. Agenda 21"), Newman denounced the proclamation as part of a United Nations plan for "sustainable development," known as Agenda 21.
On November 6, Senator Dianne Feinstein announced that she will introduce legislation next year to establish not one but two national monuments, totaling more than one million acres, in the Mojave Desert -- a proposal likely to infuriate NRA opponents. "If the federal government wants more land," said Elliott Graham, chairman of Voters Against Corruption and Tyranny, "it should sell off its existing land to pay off the national debt, which is nearly eighteen trillion dollars." Les Hammer
Restore quality patient care Dear Editor: According to the CNA, this was a rally to “restore quality patient care” at Huntington. Their unspoken message being Huntington Hospital somehow provides substandard care, because in order to restore something must be lacking; and I’m sure that reasonable people would argue that Huntington provides quality care. If our opinions aren’t sufficient than perhaps the results from the Joint Commission and other hospital assessment agencies (including that of the State of
California) that consistently give Huntington high marks on its care should suffice. This nurse thinks that your readers should know that it was the CNA that successfully defeated legislation that would’ve require all healthcare workers that had direct patient contact to either receive a flu shot or wear a mask during flu season. The CDC estimates that over the past 30 years as few as 3,000 people to as high as about 49,000 people die each year from the flu or complication of the flu compare to 1 per-
son dead from Ebola (having acquired the disease while in Africa). So the CNA sees no urgency in mandating the flu vaccine or simple precautions such as wearing a mask to minimize transmission of the flu, but demands personal protection equipment (PPE) extensive training for all nurses. This nurse wonders where the CNA’s real priorities are in all this. Oh, that’s right---whatever garners them the most press and additional members! Geneviève M. Clavreul, RN, Ph.D.
learned. At least 22 veterans commit suicide each day, according to the Veterans Affairs Department. This adds up to more than 2,000 veterans killing themselves so far this year alone. There is an offer in the Senate with provisions to force the Pentagon to reexamine troops who were discharged for PTSD-related behaviors and expand the number of years to adjust for delayed reactions to time in combat. How to pay for it has stopped the measure in its tracks. Money is always the issue. Backed by the First Lady, Michelle Obama, there is a push to end veteran homelessness by 2015. This will be an even harder pull if we have even more and more veterans to manage. Homelessness obviously affects the whole family, and the ability to be employed. Unemployment for
the post-9/11 veterans is also staggering. As with all these veterans, local communities must be a part of the mix of post combat problems for vets. Providing health care, suicide prevention, domestic dispute consultation, housing, employment and job training often falls to local governments, agencies or non-profits. These can be overwhelming, unexpected and therefore unplanned local expenditures. The Washington Post and the Kaiser Family Foundation poll, survey and report issued in March of this year mapped “A Legacy of Pain and Pride.” Our recent wars must alert us to war’s legacies aptly described in this report. Endless pain, endless financial burdens, the endless downsides to war plus the simultaneous pride in serving our country cannot be ignored. We will always
have patriotic soldiers who will fight for us, and for others. We must, now, on this day, consider the future for our patriotic soldiers who will become veterans who face pain and pride. As we reward them in passing with a “thank you for your service,” and they proudly receive medals, we have an obligation and a commitment to them to plan for that pain and plan to pay for it. Maybe that will stop us from sending more into battle if the legacy is not worth the price. --Susan Shaer is the executive director of WAND, Women’s Action for New Directions, a national women’s peace and security organization that advocate for a sound, safe, sane, smart foreign policy.

The California Retired Teachers’ Association (CalRTA) has good reason to celebrate Retired Teachers’ Week, November 2-8, this year 2014. This organization has been going strong since its inception and is now celebrating its 85th Anniversary! CalRTA was founded in 1929 (known as CRTA then) through the efforts of Laura Settle, a retired Pasadena educator, with five or six people. Now the state organization numbers over 45,000 members! Although retired from teaching, members of CalRTA stay vital and active.
One major contribution they make is through volunteer service. Many go back to the classroom---not for pay but to volunteer their time and effort. Many are active in community and social organizations that serve the public. According to the CalRTA State Communications and Technology Committee, this past year CalRTA members contributed more than 2.1 million hours of volunteer service, with only 12 percent of the membership reporting their hours. That number translates to $55 million! Besides that, members donated $660,000 in grants to
schools and scholarships to future teachers. Of equal importance is that CalRTA members, like other public employees, give back to their communities and to the state economically through pension spending. According to the National Institute on Retirement Security in its Pensionomics 2014 report, California saw $60.3 billion in federal, state and local tax revenues. Finally, pension spending by retirees, such as teachers, police officers and fire fighters, supported almost 380,000 jobs that paid $20.8 billion in wages and salaries! CalRTA
President Bill Kipp states, “Retired teachers will continue to give back, both economically and through our volunteer service.” Membership in the California Retired Teachers’ Association #71 (SGV) totals 500 members from Arcadia, Sierra Madre, Monrovia., Duarte, El Monte, Temple City and other valley cities. Membership is open to all retired educators, as well as to any others interested in joining this active group. For more information, please call Marietta Watkins at (323) 2580-9615 or Patricia Dietrich at (626) 446-8437.

Veteran's Day celebration
Matthies: Arcadia's first police murder Revisit the tragic day in 1927 when Arcadia police office Albert E. Matthies was shot and killed while on routine patrol.

Monrovia City Council to consider moratorium on demolitions By Susan Motander

Before a packed Council Chambers, the Monrovia City Council agreed to place “putting a moratorium on demolition permits” on their next agenda. City staff advised the council that no action could be taken on the matter at the current Tuesday meeting and that the earliest action could be taken was at the next meeting. The issue was discussed under Council reports and was done as a part of the report of Council Member Tom Adams. Adam initially called for a moratorium of six months, and during the course of comments from the public and the discussion by the council, other time periods---even as long as a year---were also mentioned. The council members each expressed interest in maintaining the character of the community. There were two major areas of concern noted by those speaking in favor of the moratorium: stopping the demolition of homes built prior to 1940, and maintaining the character of various neighborhoods and the community as a whole. There were several suggestions as to how best to do this. The one cited by many (including the city staff) was the completion of the Historic
Survey of Homes, which was last worked on in 2004. Craig Jimenez, the Planning Division Manager, said that the information the city currently has is “more of a database” than an actual survey. Several members from the Monrovia Historic Preservation Group (MOHPG) suggested using volunteers from that group to do some of the labor on completing the survey. Gloria Crudgington, a member of MOPHG and a Community Services Commissioner, noted that in these tight economic times, “public/ private partnership is the way to go.” Other suggestions made including “working harder” to ensure that the style and size of proposed new homes be in keeping with the neighborhood. Coulter Wynn, who spoke in support of a moratorium, suggested that the city institute style guidelines and give incentive points for styles in keeping with a neighborhood with extra points awarded for not building the largest house theoretically possible. Several others spoke out against the influx of larger new houses, relating stories of the corruption of their own neighborhoods. The general tenor of the comments was in favor of saving the older
single-family homes. There were some who pointed out the problems with the suggestions made. Among them was Russell Page who identified himself as a recently retired developer. He noted that, “Just saying ‘Don't buy our houses’ won’t work. The market is starting to boil.” He suggested having professional architects come in to review the homes in the city and designated the ones which should be saved. Another gentleman who identified himself as one who rehabilitates homes said that he had purchased a home in Monrovia in order to “rehab” it and that a moratorium would leave him in financial difficulties. Council Member Becky Shevlin also noted that in preserving the past, we did not want to stifle the city’s economy. By general agreement, the staff will bring back an ordinance to the city council for their approval at the next council meeting, November 17. In his closing remarks on the issue, Adams said that although he as the council member who raised the question of putting a stop on the demolition of houses, the entire council was equally dedicated to preserving the character of the city.
Jane Lynch, Brett Hundley will walk to end epilepsy - Nov. 16 at Rose Bowl The Epilepsy Foundation of Greater Los Angeles, leading the fight to End Epilepsy, will host its annual Walk to End Epilepsy noncompetitive 5k Walk/Run and 1-Mile Stroll. The event will also feature festivities including the Big Brain: a giant, interactive walk-through
inflatable brain, team sign decoration stations, arts and crafts, games, activity booths, food trucks and more. The Walk benefits the more than 360,000 people in California alone who have epilepsy, the world’s most common, serious brain disorder. A seizure can strike anyone at anytime,
and can cause more deaths each year than breast cancer. More than 5,000 participants are expected to convene alongside UCLA Quarterback Brett Hundley, an event spokesperson, Glee’s Darren Criss and Jane Lynch, a vocal advocate of the Foundation.

MOVIE REVIEW

Home Weekly
“Interstellar” is our modern day “2001: A Space Odyssey” There are movies that tell a great story, and there are movies that inspire human imagination. Christopher Nolan’s “Interstellar” is a visually stunning, sci-fi epic that both challenges our current ideas of what is possible and inspires us to reach toward the seemingly impossible. The auteur director and his brother Jonathan (the writing due behind the “Dark Knight Trilogy”) penned “Interstellar” with renowned theoretical physicist Kip Thorne, who served as scientific contributor to the film. The narrative takes us on an odyssey across time and space, through worm holes that deconstruct and redefine our current concepts of gravity and physics, which to this day only Albert Einstein’s equations could in theory explain to us. The film is set some decades into

the future. America’s heartland has regressed back into a dust bowl and most crops have been destroyed, thus the masses cannot be fed. The effects are catastrophic and seem to be irreversible. Enter Cooper (Mathew McConaughey), a former NASA pilot and engineer turned farmer by necessity who lives somewhere in the Midwest amidst one of the last surviving cornfields with his daughter “Murph” (Mackenzie Foy), his son Tom (Timothee Chalamet), and his father, played by John Lithgow. When Cooper and his inquisitive daughter stumble onto a top-secret NASA test site, they are greeted by Cooper’s former colleague Professor Brand (Michael Cain), a theoretical physicist who has devoted his entire life to the mathematics behind high-
speed human space travel. Cooper—along with a team of astronauts played by Anne Hathaway, Wes Bentley, and David Gyasi—is recruited to pilot the Endurance, a new spacecraft that will traverse through a newly discovered worm hold in Saturn’s solar system. This wormhole will propel them to a galaxy many light years away from Earth where a previous space crew has discovered three planets that could be hospitable to humans. The chance that Cooper and his team will return to Earth is a long shot, and if they do return, many years will have passed on Earth, but the astronauts will have remained the same age due to Einstein’s theory that time slows down for any object traveling close to or at the speed of light. This is no doubt Nolan’s most ambi-
tious and monumental project of his career. The visual effects team, the sound team, cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema, and production designer Nathan Crowley should all be lauded for their achievements, which will surely be noted in this year’s Oscar nominations. Admittedly, the story itself might at times be somewhat overly sentimental and certain plot points underdeveloped and clumsily strung together, but the performances and the visuals far outweigh any flaws in storytelling. It's clear that this was more than just a film for Nolan. It's his treatise on the intellectual and emotional reasons for why we should continue to research and invest in space exploration, and on that level he has established himself as a cinematic trailblazer.

dining & entertainment Pasadena Showcase House for the Arts welcomes 25 new provisional members for 2014-15
Meet the Treblemakers! Pasadena Showcase for the Arts (PSHA) welcomes 25 new Provisional Members for 2014-15. Dubbed the Treblemakers by Provisional Chair Marybeth RehmanDittu, the new group represents all the hard work, commitment and dedication required of members. “If you are looking for great meaning in the selection of this Provisional class name, stop now; there is as much depth to this name as a scratch lotto ticket,” jokes Marybeth. “But in all seriousness, we have a wonderful Provisional class this year and are really happy that they are part of our organization.” A play on words, the “Treblemakers” name reflects PSHA’s dedication to music education. The meaning of treble in music refers to high notes and a treble clef is used to notate such notes. The new group is a welcome addition to the all-volunteer organization. PSHA members work tirelessly to produce the annual Pasadena Showcase House of Design whose proceeds go to funding music programs in the community. “We are extremely excited to have this new group of volunteers,” said PSHA President Katherine Watkins. “The backbone of our organization is our members and without their volunteerism and dedication, we would
not be able to achieve the successes we have throughout the years. This Provisional class is our future.” The Provisional Members include: Pasadena residents: Paula Martin Fishbeck, Teresa Peterson, Salpy Pontrelli, Colleen Robertson; San Marino residents: Susan Bermingham, Jeannie Tsai; Altadena residents: Annelise Dachel, Mercedes Victoria Bowie; San Dimas resident: Dewi Slayton; San Gabriel resident: Christy Granieri; Arcadia resident: Randa Keysselitz; Montebello resident: Rosemarie Ribeiro; Los Angeles resident: Holly Lake; Santa Monica resident: Michele Vercoutere; La Canada residents: Hilda Hacobian, Terri Kagawa, Bonnie Marshall, Cynthia Gilbert, Sally Hazen; West Covina resident: Beth Hanson; Glendale residents: Deborah Hudson, Samantha Marlowe, Debann Orfalea, Janis Rosebrook; and Santa Clarita resident: Allison Maginn. The Treblemakers are a diverse group: a lower school director at Polytechnic School, a pre-school teacher, a USC Engemann Student Health Center nurse, an attorney, the president of correspondent banking at Opus Bank, a few proud mothers and happy homemakers, some family business owners, a software support manager, a partner at a law firm, a wedding photogra-
pher, a VP of regional sales at SQAD LLC, a manager for CSC, a career advisor at FIDM, a retired assistant dean of UCLA, an accountant, a world traveler, and an ecstatic empty nester. As Provisional Members, these 25 volunteers will not only staff the Pasadena Showcase House of Design, but will dedicate their time to three music programs supported by PSHA: the Pasadena Showcase House Music Mobile™, in which the Pasadena Conservatory of Music and members of PSHA introduce third-graders throughout the San Gabriel Valley to the instruments and music of an orchestra; the Pasadena Showcase House Youth Concert, to which PSHA invited approximately 4,000 fourthgraders from 50 schools in the San Gabriel Valley to Walt Disney Concert Hall for a special performance by the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra earlier this year; and the Pasadena Showcase House Instrumental Competition in which talented, young musicians, ages 16-24, compete for approximately $30,000 in award monies in theareas of Brass, Strings and Woodwinds, that will take place later this month. The 2015 Showcase House will be open to the public April 19 to May 17, 2015. Tickets to the Showcase House go on sale February 4, 2015. To purchase tickets,

"The transit station and Plaza was designed not only for visitors and those getting off the train, but also to be a focal point for Downtown Arcadia. We want it to be a pleasant and unique space that on its own says 'Arcadia' to both residents and guests.

an active, vibrant community gathering space serving many purposes. The stage, benches, bike racks, signage, landscaping, and public art were placed here to make the site versatile for different uses and activities. In addition to these items, the decorative crosswalks, sidewalk improvements, lighting, canopies attached to the parking structure, and rock garden with drought tolerant landscaping were all 'betterments' to the original design in order to make the Plaza even more special.

Woodcraft Rangers gives kids the tools they need to succeed
Reading is an essential skill to have and creates an abundance of opportunities for younger generations to obtain. With the importance of these tools to acquire, Woodcraft Rangers NVISION programs partner with Curacao Stores to give students at Pacific Elementary the chance to gain and develop their reading skills through the Learn to Read – Read to Learn Program. Every day after school, Woodcraft Rangers’ NVISION club leaders walk students over to the Curacao store in Huntington Park to instruct young kids to learn how to read through various literacy strategies and reading games to keep the students engaged. The Learn to ReadRead to Learn program is developed to engage students in need through motivational activities imbedded into the program to give them confidence and self-esteem to excel. With many parents work-
ing and trying to find time to help their kids develop these skills, Woodcraft Rangers can step in and create that safe and educational environment for the kids to flourish in their academics. The goal is to work towards building the student’s self-esteem and confidence when faced with challenges in order to have them graduate from high school. When families and communities are struggling financially and students are falling behind academically, the need for after school programs are critical. With the Learn to Read-Read to Learn initiative, Woodcraft Rangers helps fill in that struggle and instill academic skills that will help the kids grow. Woodcraft Rangers Chief Executive Officer Chris Johnson says, “Reading is imperative and we engage with our students to give them the best opportunity to succeed. By supporting and giving the kids the

confidence they need, their future will look a lot brighter.” Woodcraft Rangers NVISION offers free afterschool programs that keep kids safe, inspire learning and help working families. Having a strong a history of youth development for over 92 years, Wood-
craft Rangers alumni know the impact the program has had in their lives. Woodcraft Rangers NVISION programs continue to serve over 15,000 kids annually throughout the greater Los Angeles area through after school programs and summer camps.
Experience is the best teacher. That was among the many lessons learned Monday at the Exceptional Minds vocational school for young adults on the autism spectrum, where the pros from Stargate Studios held a seminar on greenscreen compositing for the students here training to become visual effects artists. The Sherman Oaks specialized vocational school is known for its close working relationship with the visual effects industry. Stargate Studios, a fast-paced post-production studio that has worked on features and
television series such as Heroes, CSI, Grey’s Anatomy, and The Walking Dead, has provided both mentorship and on-the-job training for Exceptional Minds students. In June, Stargate Studios hired a young professional (Kevin Titcher) on the spectrum from Exceptional Minds’ first graduating class. More than 750,000 young adults with autism are expected to reach adulthood in the next decade with few job prospects and even fewer vocational training programs to prepare them for meaningful careers.

Boston Marathon tragedy survivor honored by Optimist Youth Homes and Family Services More than $170,000 was raised at the 2014 Mentor Awards Gala to benefit the treatment and education programs for at-risk youth served by Optimist Youth Homes & Family Services.
Held Oct. 23 at a private club in downtown Los Angeles, the evening honored three of Optimist’s major supporters – survivors of the Boston Marathon bombing tragedy John and Karen Odom of
Redondo Beach, and labor attorney and philanthropist Alfred J. Landegger, Esq. of Tarzana. A special Helping Hand Award was given to the Burbank/Magnolia Park Optimist Club. Co-
hosted by CNN’s Michaela Pereira and KTLA’s Chris Schauble, over 275 guests feted the Odoms and Landegger at the dinner and auction. The dinner chair was Carolyn Rodriguez
of City National Bank, last year’s Mentor Award Recipient. The proceeds include $19,000 which was raised through a live auction at the gala and earmarked to support the installation of artificial turf on the agency’s main campus as well as foster parent recruitment. LA County Supervisor Don Knabe presented the Odoms with the Mentor Award and Gary Gitlin, Esq. presented the Humanitarian Award to Landegger.
Founded in 1906, Optimist Youth Homes & Family Services is one of the region’s largest education and treatment centers for juvenile offenders and other at-risk children. It operates residential care facilities for 97 boys on its Highland Park campus, four group homes, a state certified non-public high school, a Charter School for probation and foster youth, multifaceted mental health programs for community youth and families, and a foster care and adoption agency.

Mayfield spikes down Mission Preps CIF hopes
The Mayfield Senior Cubs played their first CIF match against Mission Prep this past Tuesday. Mission Prep had a lengthy travel period of four hours to reach Pasadena, however, they only spent a short 60 minutes on the court, as the Cubs defeated them in 3 games. The Cubs won each match: 25-13, 25-13 and 25-17. The Cubs were dominant in every aspect of their performance on Tuesday night and look forward to tonight's game (Thursday the 13th, 7PM) at home against Valley Christian High School. Valley Christian beat Gahr 3-1 in their first CIF match Tuesday.
South Pasadena Football Team suspended, will not compete in CIF Playoffs South Pasadena’s Tiger football team’s season ended on Friday night even before the game was played, but the students did not know it. The Tigers won their game against La Canada, the latter team’s homecoming, but the results were moot as the game was deemed forfeited because of an alleged violation of CIF rules. This game determined who would receive an automatic berth in the playoffs. La Canada has now received that berth. La Canada’s principal, Ian McFeat, is said to have called South Pasadena’s principal Janet Anderson telling her that the team had violated CIF-SS Blue Book Rule 512 that prohibits photograph-
ing an opponent’s practice session with that opponent’s authorization. The allegation is that Nick Konrad, the brother of South Pasadena coach Marty Konrad, video taped the La Canada team practicing. In a letter sent to parents, Coach Konrad claimed he did not ask his brother to tape the practice nor had he or any member of the coaching staff seen the tape. The letter also explained that Nick Konrad had not coached at South Pasadena for two years and was at the practice session because his own son plays at neighboring St. Francis High School. Coach Konrad said that he did not know that the

game was to be forfeited despite the outcome, although he did not that he was being suspended from coaching at that game. He said he choose not to fight his own suspension since the game was to go on without the students knowing the reason for the suspension. His letter also said that had he known, he would have urged the parents to protest. Apparently the decision that the game was to be forfeited to La Canada was made by the Rio Hondo League principals and not the CIF. There is some question if South Pasadena could have submitted a bid for another berth in the playoff. They have opted not to do so.

Do’s and don’ts of dealing with Child Protective Services - Nov. 15 An expert in juvenile dependency cases, Vincent W. Davis, Esq., is meeting with parents to share tips and strategies on how to help their court-appointed attorney get their kids back – sooner. If your children have been removed from the home, this can be a critical time for many parents and families. But, they may be able to avoid missteps and errors in the process by becoming as knowledgeable as
possible about the juvenile dependency system. Per Attorney Davis, “You can’t win, if you don’t know how.” Mr. Davis is rolling out a series of free workshops to help parents learn about the juvenile justice court system, understand procedures and alternatives, conduct their own investigation, ensure the right witnesses are in court, and most importantly, arm them with the information they need to assist their court-
appointed attorney. Mr. Davis will offer guidance, recommend strategy, build confidence and teach parents how to avoid missteps in the legal proceedings that may result in delays in getting the children returned to the home.

A former Compton man suspected by detectives with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department of murdering the mother of his children was returned on Wednesday to Los Angeles to face prosecution after his arrest in Mexico earlier this year, announced Bill Lewis, Assistant Director in Charge of the FBI’s Los Angeles Field Office, and John Scott, Acting Sheriff of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LASD). Juan Bravo Lopez, 52, a former resident of Compton and citizen of Mexico, was arrested in San Vicente, Baja, Mexico, on June 3, 2014, following extradition proceedings in Mexico City, Mexico. According to a federal criminal complaint filed in United States District Court in Los Angeles last year, LASD detectives obtained an arrest warrant for Lopez and
charged him with one count of murder on June 5, 2003, after he was identified as the suspect in the strangulation death of his then-girlfriend and mother of his children. According to the federal complaint, Lopez fled to Mexico with the victim’s three children, two of whom they shared biologically. LASD Detectives learned the whereabouts of the victim’s third child in Mexico shortly after the murder and traveled there to return the child, then eleven years of age, to his family in the United States. In 2013, LASD detectives determined that Lopez had been incarcerated, and subsequently residing, in Mexico, and requested assistance from the FBI’s Fugitive Task Force (FTF) in order to locate and apprehend Lopez. On November 27, 2013, a federal warrant charging Lopez with Unlawful Flight
to Avoid Prosecution (UFAP) was issued in United States District Court in Los Angeles. Following the FTF’s investigation, Lopez was arrested by Mexican police officers working with the FBI’s Legal Attaché in Mexico City, on behalf of the Los Angeles FTF and the LASD. Lopez has remained in custody in Mexico City throughout the extradition process since that time. Mexican authorities, to include the Police Policía Federal Ministerial (PFM) and the Procuraduría General de la República (PGR) assisted in the apprehension and extradition of Lopez. The FBI continues to work with local law enforcement to apprehend violent criminals. Photos and descriptions of many fugitives wanted by the FBI can be found at www.fbi. gov.

a 10-year-old male, who was fondled by the suspect while in the restroom of the “Dave & Buster's.” The victim notified his mother soon after the incident had occurred. The mother chased the suspect as he left the restroom, which alerted the business managers of Dave & Buster's. The managers resumed the chase and caught up with the suspect and detained him. Mall security personnel responded and detained the suspect until
the police arrived. The suspect was identified by the victim and was placed under arrest for a violation of California Penal Code Section –288(a)—Lewd Act with a Child (under 14). The suspect was identified as Kwan Chow, 31-years-old, of Monterey Park. He was transported to the Arcadia City jail for booking and was transferred to the Los Angeles County Inmate Reception Center for housing. Chow’s bail is
currently set at $200,000.00. Through the course of the investigation, detectives have identified an additional 10-year-old male victim who was also fondled in the restroom at Dave & Buster's. Chow has also been identified as the suspect in this case. Detectives are looking for additional victims who may have experienced similar circumstances in or around the men’s bathroom at Dave & Buster's within the recent past.

Referring to the lessthan-brilliant move of said drive-through post boxes on Santa Clara, Arcadia Mayor John Wuo called Arcadia’s postmaster an "idiot" at last week’s city council meeting and ended with this pointed zinger: “Any 6 year-old will know that is wrong.” Whoever was responsible for this absurd bit of planning in Arcadia truly needs their heads examined as we stated last week, and we are not alone.

A provocative independent film, worthy of parents and teens alike, Richard Zelniker’s gritty High School thriller, AS NIGHT COMES is remarkably timely and relevant to the world we live in today while also paying homage to such classics as Clockwork Orange and The Outsiders. Avoiding clichés and filled with a weighty truth, the story is seen through the eyes of angst-filled teenagers struggling to find their identities and place in teen culture, As Night Comes is a powerful, eye-opening, beautifully structured tapestry of images that will hopefully begin a much needed conversation. Featuring a talented ensemble cast of “ones to watch” including Luke Baines (The Ever After), Myko Olivier (Castle), Evanne Friedmann (iCarly), Stacia Hitt (Neighbors) and Jesse Kove (Bunyan), As Night Comes follows troubled new kid, Sean Holloway, who falls in with a group of teenage outcasts called 'The Misfits' and under the wing of its dysfunctional yet charismatic leader, Ricky. On the eve of Halloween, Ricky’s anarchist plan for revenge spirals out of control, culminating in brutal violence, and ultimately Sean’s fight for survival and freedom. Tackling important issues ranging from peer pressure to bullying to domestic abuse, As Night Comes does not rely on horrific violence

and external terror as so many films do, but rather captures the audience’s attention immediately through striking performances and realistic dialogue, never letting go of the viewer. Directed by Richard Zelniker, his intention to illicit raw, deep and honest emotion works, creating almost a documentary experience that hits you with its stark and brutal truth and successfully draws you deep into the world of the characters inner turmoil and brutal conflict. It is not your average teen film, there is a rawness that is reflective of the real world. There is at least one, if not many, moments throughout the film that evokes an emotion, a memory, a pain, that is uniquely personal to the viewer watching. Luke Baines is particularly mesmerizing as the baddest of boys, Ricky. His characterization of a mentally disturbed drug-addled lost and angry soul, lashing out against authority and those that do not follow his lead, keeps you eerily glued to the screen even when you want to look away. Stand out performanc-
es, though there are many throughout the film, also include stars Myko Olivier as Sean, whose good-looking “odd man out” breaks the norm of the awkward-looking outcast and former 2010 Tournament of Roses’ Rose Queen Evanne Friedmann as Sarah, the good-girl love interest of a struggling Sean. Another stand-out in the film? The exceptional production design, lighting and camera work which creatively blend to fill the screen with images that are simultaneously fascinating, haunting, beautiful, repellent and symbolic. As Night Comes also features a captivating soundtrack from Teenage Atari Riot that keeps you thoroughly engaged throughout the movie. Zelniker’s As Night Comes begins its weeklong Los Angeles theatrical release at Laemmle's Music Hall in Beverly Hills on Friday November 14, 2014. Following its theatrical run, As Night Comes will be available via VOD on December 5, 2014. My recommendation: don’t miss it.

ing sufficient supplies. They also urged hospital management to cease violating labor rights. Congresswoman Judy Chu, Pasadena City Councilmember Victor Gordo, and other community leaders attended the rally to express support for nurses’ efforts to restore quality patient care at HMH. One of the many concerns was a chaotic period recently at Huntington in which nurses were transitioning to an electronic data base which in turn created a serious delay in patient care. Some nurses said they were intimidated by administration and that they were photographed against their will. Nurses began organizing to affiliate with the California Nurses Association (CNA) this May after a number of their efforts to engage management on patient care issues were rebuffed. Since then, some improvements have been won, but management has begun to engage in “illegal activity in an attempt to thwart unionization attempts.” Managers have interrogated nurses about their organizing activities and threatened loss of support staff and healthcare benefits if the union drive continues. In an effort to demonstrate the need for patient care improvements throughout the hospital, nurses compiled an extensive Patient Care Report highlighting various patient care concerns— most notably chronic unsafe staffing practices. "Like my colleagues, I've always been proud to work at Huntington because it has a reputation for providing quality patient care," said Ann Linck, RN, Maternity. "However, in recent years we've seen hospital management prioritize profits and make decisions that degrade the quality of care delivery." "By raising our collective voice we've already won some improvements here at HMH, but unfortunately management is now trying to intimidate us into silence," said Allysha Almada, RN, Intensive Care. "It is our job as RNs to advocate for patient care so silence is not an option. Our patients deserve safe staffing and adequate supplies, and state law demands it. We are committed to continue organizing until quality care is restored at our hospital."
Congresswoman Judy Chu voiced her concern over the nurses’ plight. -Photo by Terry Miller
Two-day strikes which started Tuesday affected nearly 20,000 registered nurses at 86 Kaiser Permanente hospitals and clinics, a Sutter hospital in Tracy, and Watsonville Community Hospital kicking off a wave of protests at 15 states and the District of Columbia over eroding patient care conditions symbolized by inadequate Ebola safeguards at most U.S. hospitals. Kaiser RNs and nurse practitioners were on strike Tuesday morning in Antioch, Fremont, Fresno, Oakland, Redwood City, Richmond, Roseville, Sacramento, San Francisco, San Jose, San Leandro, San Rafael, Santa Clara, Santa Rosa, South Sacramento, South San Francisco, Stockton, Vacaville, Vallejo, Walnut Creek. Large noon rallies were held at Kaiser Oakland and Kaiser South Sacramento. On Wednesday, November 12, California RNs joined with nurses and allies in 14 other states and the District of Columbia to step up the call for improved safeguards in the face of the deadly Ebola virus. In California, in addition to Kaiser, Sutter Tracy and Watsonville, nurses also be picketed at hospitals that are part of Dignity Health, Sutter, St. Joseph Health System, Memorial Care, and the University of California medical centers. For striking nurses, the failure to secure Ebola safeguards symbolizes what nurses see as a steady erosion in care standards that increasingly put patients as well as nurses and other frontline health workers at risk. “Nurses, who have been willing to stand by the patients whether it's the flu, whether it's Ebola, whether it's cancer, are now being asked to put themselves in harm's way unprotected, un-
guarded," said NNU Executive Director Rose Ann DeMoro, in a press conference announcing the actions. On patient care issues, Kaiser RNs have cited cuts in hospital services at a number of Kaiser hospitals, sharp restrictions on admitting patients for hospital care or early discharge of patients who still need hospitalization. Kaiser RN Katy Roemer told reporters over the weekend that Kaiser nurses are “not seeing the resources we need on a daily basis to provide safe care. We are going out on strike about patient safety issues.” “Our call for a strike speaks loudly and clearly that we want management to stop their stalling in bargaining our first contract, stop the unfair labor practices, and provide the safeguards and resources needed to deliver safe patient care. It's high time to listen to the nurses,” said Sutter Tracy RN Dotty Nygard. On Ebola, what NNU is demanding is the optimal personal protective equipment for nurses and other caregivers who interact with Ebola patients. That means full-body hazmat suits that meet the American Society for Testing and Materials F1670 standard for blood penetration, F1671 standard for viral penetration, and that leave no skin exposed or unprotected, and National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health-approved powered air purifying respirators with an assigned protection factor of at least 50. Second, that all facilities provide continuous, rigorous interactive training for RNs and other health workers who might encounter an Ebola patient, that includes practice putting on and taking off the hazmat suits where some of the greatest risk of infection can occur.

La Salle finished their season last Friday night by falling to Cathedral 71-28. The Lancers have had a tough year in their new division, facing difficult match-ups with wellrespected programs.

Board orders audit of alleged duplicate voter registration and irregularities A motion by Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich, unanimously approved by the Board of Supervisors, directed the Auditor-Controller to review the alleged duplicate voter registrations and other irregularities in the voter rolls and report back to the Board in
30 days on the findings. The request is a direct result of a recent report by KNBC News that identified at least 442, and possibly thousands more, alleged irregularities in the voter role. “Even with the understanding that the process
of updating or correcting voter records is complex, it is still incumbent upon the County to ensure the accuracy of voter registration, while preserving the right of every eligible voter to exercise his or her right to vote,” said Supervisor Antonovich.
A new California Appellate case just published August 8, 2013, “Glaski v. Bank of America”, holds that a homeowner can challenge his lender’s right to foreclose by showing that the Deed of Trust never made it into the securitized trust until after the trust’s closing date. This issue is now squarely before the California Supreme Court in Yvanova v. New Century Mortgage Corp. This is the case in most loans made in the last 12 years. If the bank foreclosed we should be able to get the homeowner money damages and/or the house back. Or a lawsuit could be filed and a court ruling obtained preventing the court from foreclosing. Recently enacted Sections 2924(a)(6) and 2924.19 of California Civil Code provide the same relief to homeowners. It is highly suggested that homeowners take this window of opportunity to get relief before the banks get Congress to close this door with national legislation. Contact us so we can help you.

On Tuesday, Nov. 11, El Monte hosted the City’s annual Veterans Day Ceremony to honor the men, women and their families who sacrificed to serve our nation. “Today, we pay tribute to the veterans who risked their lives around the world to protect our country and the freedom it stands for,” said Councilman Juventino “J” Gomez, a disabled American veteran who served in the U.S. Army from August 1965 to November 1967. The ceremony captured the essence of the City’s dedication to its veterans – a commitment made manifest in its El Monte Veterans Village. Veterans Village is a $12 million, 40-unit comprehensive affordable housing development designed specifically

for homeless veterans. It opened in March as the first facility of its kind in the San Gabriel Valley. The Village includes services to address longstanding veterans’ issues such as health and wellness, job training, family reunification and legal services. “El Monte and its residents stand behind those currently serving and those who have served in the past,
and the city will continue to offer support and shelter to veterans who make their home here,” Gomez said. Tuesday’s Veterans Day Ceremony featured a reading of the Veterans Day poem and the presentation of colors by the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 10218 and the American Legion Post 261. The Mountain View High School Vikings Band performed patriotic selections.

The Giggle Fiber business plan is to enable residential customers to receive all of their communications and home entertainment needs from a single Internet connection. “The days of the high priced cable bundle are numbered,” adds Mark Haverkate, Giggle Fiber’s Business Development Director. “Our customers will be able to simultaneously stream multiple HD videos sources while only paying for the video content they actually want. Our job is
to be very reliable, at a low flat rate, with open access to all.” Giggle Fiber operates a retail and demonstration center at 512 S. Myrtle in Old Town Monrovia.

Keeping fitness through the holidays November is here and the holiday season is now in motion. Ready or not, here they come: parties, shopping, decorating, travel, food and more food. While the holidays bring joy, they can also be a stressful and disrupting time of year. Often times folks who have been on a regular exercise schedule get sidetracked and those who have yet to begin one will more than likely put it off until the first of the year. Instead of allowing the holidays to take you completely off of your fitness journey, or waiting until January to begin one, you can take action now that will prepare you for an easier transition into the New Year. Here are a few strategies to help you along the way: 1. Try different activi-
ties and venues until something sticks. It can be a class, coach, personal trainer, mentor, or team, whatever it takes to bring you to a place of adherence. No guilt if you need to restart every week, or every day. If you fail, get up, start again, and keep moving. 2. Keep it simple. Make sure that whatever activity you choose is easy for you to prepare for and is geographically desirable. This ensures that it will more easily fit it into your busy holiday schedule. 3. Make it fun. Maybe you just need to feel good right now, so choose something that you want to do, such as: dance class, yoga, stretching class, Pilates, spin, a simple weekly walk, or a swim. Do whatever entices you to be ac-
tive.
4. No need to go it alone: grab your neighbor, your spouse, your best friend, or find a community that supports your interests. Start to incorporate some fitness, no matter how small, into your schedule now. This will help you to develop a mindset and habit of exercising. It may take you many “starts” to get on track and that is okay! It is better to keep starting over rather than to give up and spend the next two months overeating and underexercising. Imagine finishing 2014 without gaining a pound, and confidently embracing your fitness journey in the New Year. Written by Hope and Stephanie - Certified Personal Trainers – www.MoveYourMountain.com.
Visual Artists Guild to bring attention to Hong Kong's Umbrella Movement Visual Artists Guild's Great Firewall of China Marching Brigade will be represented at the Pasadena Doo-Dah Parade on Saturday, November 15, to bring attention to the Umbrella Movement in support of Hong Kong people's right to vote and to stand for election. In 1997, Hong Kong was returned to China under the Sino-British Joint Declaration of the principle of "One Country Two Systems" whereby Hong Kong would retain its Capitalist system. The chief executive of Hong Kong is currently
elected by 1200 people from different sectors but dominated by the business sectors. It was agreed upon in 2007 by Beijing that by 2017 there will be universal suffrage allowing all of Hong Kong citizens to elect their chief executive; however this August, a White Paper by Beijing indicated that the candidates must be first nominated by a committee of 1200 and Beijing will approve for 2 people who are allowed to run. The people call it Fake Universal Suffrage. The people of Hong

Kong felt they were betrayed. Students started to boycott classes starting on September 22. When Hong Kong police started to use tear gas and pepper spray against the peaceful student protesters, it galvanized the people of Hong Kong to join in the protest. In more than 5 weeks of protests, no one car has been overturned and no one store window has been broken. Dubbed the most civil of civil disobedience, protesters started using umbrellas to protect themselves; thus the Umbrella Movement was born.

Monrovia’s brand new Massage Envy “flooded” after being open just 7 days
Last Saturday morning, opening staff discovered water in the rear section of the beautiful new Massage Envy Spa. It turns out the “sump pump” in the rear parking lot was not operational and water seeped in the emergency exit! Coit was called and arrived quickly to assess the damage and immediately began the cleanup. “The good news,” said Kaitlyn Adams, owner of Massage Envy Spa Monrovia, “is that only seven of our fifteen rooms were affected, so we are still open for business. Clients receiving services cannot even hear the fans running or work being done. Fans can be heard in the Tranquility Room, but it isn’t terrible; sounds like white noise and

none of our clients have minded. We will, however, need to postpone our Grand Opening Celebration which was scheduled for next week, November 13. After conferring with the Chamber, the ribbon cutting will take place next
Thursday as scheduled and a new date will be chosen for the party. We had an excellent report from Coit today (11-5) that the walls will be completely dry by tomorrow so the repair work can begin. We will be fully operational soon!”
Staff training helps save a life at Pasadena Convention Center It was a typical busy day at the Pasadena Convention Center in October when public safety officers Zabrina Patterson and Max Pitpan heard frantic calls for help over their hand-held radios. Without hesitation, Zabrina and Max responded to where one of their co-workers was experiencing a sudden serious medical emergency. At that moment, Patterson and Pitpan relied on their regular training they receive as part of their employment with the Pasadena Center Operating Company. The training provided them with the skills and knowledge to save a life. The two worked in tandem to assess the victim, secure the scene, call paramed-
ics and get the automated external defibrillator operational to treat a possible sudden cardiac arrest. “One of the first paramedics on the scene let us know that Max and Zabrina's actions probably saved their co-worker’s life,” said Peter DeClerk, operations manager for the Pasadena Center Operating Company. “The event staff at PCOC is tasked with responding to accidents and injuries and is trained in CPR AED and First Aid. This is the one training we all hope we never have to use,” he said. “However, we also hope that when the time comes, the training will come back to us and we'll able to handle a lifethreatening emergency. Max
and Zabrina learned firsthand that the training works and that it can save lives in a real world emergency.” Sudden cardiac arrest is a condition in which the heart suddenly and unexpectedly stops beating. When this happens, blood stops flowing to the brain and other vital organs. According to the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, SCA usually causes death if it's not treated within minutes, and each minute of SCA leads to a 10 percent reduction in the probability of survival. Using an AED on a person who is having SCA may save the person's life. For more information, contact the Pasadena Convention (800) 307-7977 or visit www.VisitPasadena.com.

POLICE BLOTTERS mors. Some community members stated they believed there were as many as seven shootings in District 1, 3, and 5, and that the Pasadena Police Department was attempting to conceal the incidents. However, based on information received at the police department, it was determined there were approximately eight calls related to “shots fired” (from October 1 – November 5, 2014) in the concerned areas. Of the eight Calls for Service (CFS) regarding reported “shots fired,” only one was proven to have occurred (evidence collected at the scene). The other seven reports of “shots fired” were unfounded (no evidence or witness statements supporting the report of shot fired). It is not uncommon for misinformation to occur following critical incidents in our community. However, concerned persons may wish to contact the police department (626-744-4241) or use the Crime Mapping program (http://www. crimemapping.com/map/ ca/pasadena) for more information. Markus A.
