UCLA Scientists Discover Why Patients Respond to a Life-Saving Melanoma Drug UCLA researchers have pioneered a new methodology to predict why some patients battling advanced melanoma respond well or not at all to the new breakthrough drug pembrolizumab (Keytruda). The study, led by UCLA Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center members Drs. Paul Tumeh and Antoni Ribas, primary investigator of pembrolizumab, is the first of its kind since the FDA approved the use of Keytruda in September and could lead the way for more effective use of the drug in patients with melanoma and other cancers. A protein known as PD-1 puts the immune system’s brakes on, preventing T cells from attacking cancer cells. Pembrolizumab removes the brake lines, freeing up the immune sysDr. Antoni Ribas (left) and Dr. Paul Tumeh – Photo credit: UCLA Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center -Photo Courtesy of UCLA tem to kill cancer cells. “We’ve had amazing clinical success treating patients with melanoma,” that can select for patients and others are not,” said that are more effective, less patients battling advanced said Tumeh, lead author that are likely to respond to Ribas, professor of he- costly and with fewer side matology and oncology. effects.” melanoma with pembro- of the study and assistant this therapeutic class.” “Our job was to figure “Now, with these results, Over the two-year lizumab.

Rep. Schiff Renews Push for Body Cameras for Law Enforcement On Tuesday Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), a former federal prosecutor who recently urged the Department of Justice to help fund local police departments’ purchase of small body-worn cameras in order to increase transparency, decrease tensions between police and community members, and create a record of events, released the following statement: “Last night, following the decision of a grand jury not to indict the policeman who shot and killed Michael Brown, several buildings were set ablaze and violence again plagued the streets of Ferguson. Brown’s death and this new spate of violence has exposed anew the deep
mistrust between many Americans, particularly those of color, and law enforcement. “I join the family of Michael Brown, the Attorney General, and the President in calling for an end to the violence, and for calm and restraint, both by protestors and police. As the President said late last night, we are a nation of laws and the grand jury’s decision -- whether we agree with it or disagree -was theirs to make. “We cannot undo the past -- we cannot bring Michael back, but we can create a better future for our children and make our streets safer for citizens Please see page 5

Burbank Man Charged with Attempted Murder A 40-year-old man was charged today with trying to kill a Glendale resident in his driveway, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office announced. Deputy-in-Charge Susan Steinfeld said Artyom Martirosyan (dob 2/3/74) of Burbank is facing one felony count each of attempted murder, assault with a firearm and criminal threats in case GA095248. Martirosyan pleaded not guilty to the charges and is scheduled to return on Dec. 8 in Department 1 of the Los Angeles County Superior Court, Burbank Branch. About noon on Nov. 19, Martirosyan approached the victim, a one-time potential business partner, and shot him several times, the prosecutor said. Before leaving, the defendant threatened to kill another victim who witnessed the shooting, the prosecutor added. Martirosyan is being held without bail. If convicted as charged, he faces a possible maximum sentence of life in state prison.
Millions of Illegal Immigrants Now Have a Chance to Live American Dream Last Thursday, in his immigration speech, Obama promised to increase the budget for law enforcement at our Southern border to prevent illegal crossings and to speed up deportation of “those who do cross over.” Additionally, he promised to “make it easier and faster for high-skilled immigrants, graduates and entrepreneurs to stay and contribute to our economy;” however, he emphasized that felons and gang members should not have the chance to take advantage of American life, but rather be deported. Obama asked Congress to get out of its gridlock and work together on this and other topics instead of against
each other. After all, “our history and the facts show that immigrants are a net plus for our economy and our society,” the President added. Sacramento County Sheriff Scott Jones, a proponent of Obama’s immigration measures spoke to the President in a video on YouTube last Wednesday: “Like their American criminal counterparts, they commit murders, sexual assaults, kidnaps, thefts, engage in violent gang activity and murder police officers. The problem I have is I can’t tell which ones are good and which ones are evil, and neither can you. By their very definition, Please see page 4

Online Shopping Could Spur Funding for California’s Vital Public Services As California consumers load up online shopping carts this holiday season, they might not realize these purchases are taxed to support vital public services. Online shoppers who are not charged sales tax may owe use tax, which has been imposed on purchases from out-of-state retailers since 1935. Like sales tax, use tax helps fund public safety, education, health care, and more. Use tax is charged on purchases made from out-ofstate retailers on items that are used, stored, or consumed in California. If a buyer makes a taxable purchase (e.g., purchases of books, electronic equipment, and toys) from any out-of-state retailer and is not charged tax, the buyer is responsible for paying use tax. The easiest way to know if you may owe use tax is to review your receipt to see if you were charged sales tax. “The growing popularity of online shopping for the holidays will also be a boon to our state’s economy as retailers nationwide are expected to hire more than 800,000 seasonal workers, and UPS carriers will also double hiring over last year as reported by Fortune Magazine,” said Board of Equalization Chairman Jerome E. Horton. “With more people working, Californians are expected to spend more on holiday purchases, resulting
in more sales and use tax revenue to fund vital public services.” The BOE helps consumers comply with the use tax law on all their online purchases. It is easy to report and pay use tax on the BOE website, or through the BOE’s Mobile App available for Apple and Android devices. Use tax can also be paid on California state income tax forms for which a convenient Use Tax Lookup Table can be used to estimate the amount owed if receipts for the pur-
chases are not available. For other tips on how to comply and avoid penalties, visit: www.boe.ca.gov/sutax/usetax.htm#Personal. Last year, businesses and California residents paid more than $4.6 billion in use tax. However, BOE estimates that more than $1 billion goes unpaid each year, enough to pay the salaries of more than 11,000 teachers or 7,000 police officers. Consumers can find out if they owe use tax by looking at receipts from online purchases to see if sales tax was charged. If not, they
may owe use tax.

Horton is the Fourth District Member of the California State Board of Equalization, representing more than 8.5 million residents in Los Angeles County. He is also the Board of Equalization’s Legislative Committee Chairman. He is the first to serve on the Board of Equalization with over 21 years of experience at the BOE. Horton previously served as an Assembly Member of the California State Assembly from 2000-2006. The five-member California State Board of Equalization (BOE) is a publicly elected tax board. The BOE collects $56 billion annually in taxes and fees supporting state and local government services. It hears business tax appeals, acts as the appellate body for franchise and personal income tax appeals, and serves a significant role in the assessment and administration of property taxes.

Preventing plumbing problems in the kitchen during the Thanksgiving holiday is easy as pie, if cooks know the do’s and don’ts of their drains and garbage disposals. Year in and year out, the Thanksgiving holiday brings a spike in emergency calls to plumbers for malfunctioning garbage disposals and clogged drains. In fact, the day after Thanksgiving is the busiest day of the year for plumbers, seeing a nearly 50% spike in emergency visits. “At Mr. Rooter Plumbing, we want to make this holiday enjoyable for our customers, so we’re available in case a plumbing disaster strikes,” said Mary Kennedy Thompson, president of Mr. Rooter Plumbing. “Our Mr. Rooter plumbing service professionals take a great deal of pride in being a hero for our customers.” With a house full of
family and friends, more leftovers go down the drain. That means an increase in the chance of drains clogging and garbage disposals breaking. After the Thanksgiving feast is cleaned up, it is important for cooks to know what should - and should not - be put down the drain. “Garbage disposals weren’t designed to replace the trash can,” Thompson said. “On top of that, they usually get overworked during the holidays.” While counting your blessings this Thanksgiving, be thankful for these Top 5 Turkey Day Tips from Mr. Rooter Plumbing: Don’t put turkey bones or skin, or potato and onion peels down the garbage disposal. Throw leftovers in the trash or compost pile. Feed waste gradually to prevent overloading the garbage disposal.
Avoid pouring grease down the drain – it will harden on your pipes; wipe off greasy pans before washing. Don’t operate dishwasher if you suspect a problem. It discharges into the disposal. About Mr. Rooter®: Established in 1970, Mr. Rooter is an all-franchised, full-service plumbing and drain cleaning company with approximately 300 franchises worldwide. Recognized by Entrepreneur magazine among its “Franchise 500” and Franchise Times Top 200, Mr. Rooter franchisees provide services to both residential and commercial customers.

ACLU Pipes in on Ferguson Grand Jury Decision
Millions of Illegal Immigrants Now Have a Chance to Live American Dream Continued from page 1
The grand jury in Ferguson, Mo., has declined to indict Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson on charges in the Aug. 9 shooting death of Michael Brown. The following is reaction from Jeffrey Mittman, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Missouri: The grand jury’s decision does not negate the fact that Michael Brown’s tragic death is part of an alarming national trend of officers using excessive force against people of color, often during routine encounters. Yet
in most cases, the officers and police departments are not held accountable. While many officers carry out their jobs with respect for the communities they serve, we must confront the profound disconnect and disrespect that many communities of color experience with their local law enforcement. The ACLU will continue to fight for racial justice. We must end the prevailing policing paradigm where police departments are more like occupying forces, imposing their will to control communities.
This ‘us vs. them’ policing antagonizes communities by casting a blanket of suspicion over entire neighborhoods, often under the guise of preventing crime. To build trust, we need a democratic system of policing where our communities have an equal say in the way their neighborhoods are policed. Collaboration, transparency, and communication between police and communities around the shared goals of equality, fairness, and public safety is the path forward.

The vessel is 112 feet long and her main mast rises 89 feet from the water. The ship has appeared in several movies and television shows, most recently Once Upon A Time as Captain
Hook’s ship, Jolly Roger. Hawaiian Chieftain is a steelhulled interpretation of a typical 19th century coastal trader. She specializes in K-12 educational programs. The Grays Harbor Historical Seaport Authority is a not-for-profit, 501(c)(3) public development authority based in Aberdeen, Wash. that owns and operates the tall ships Hawaiian Chieftain and Lady Washington, the Official Ship of the State of Washington. GHHSA provides educational, vocational, recreational and ambassadorial activities and experiences that promote and preserve the maritime history of Grays Harbor, the Pacific Northwest, and our nation while serving the needs of the community.
they are undocumented, untracked, untraced and unaccounted for.” Representative Sam Farr, D-Carmel, calls the plan “a good first step,“ but worries, that “it does not go far enough to protect our local economy by ensuring that the agriculture industry has access to a stable workforce.” Senator Barbara Boxer applauds “President Obama for stepping up and taking bold and constitutional action to bring people out of the shadows, thereby strengthening our economy and keeping families from being torn apart.” She believes that “these steps will increase border security and
hold people accountable by requiring them to undergo background checks and pay taxes.” According to the Los Angeles Times, lots of immigrants from different backgrounds celebrated Obama’s policies. Citlali Gomez, a 34-year-old Mexican immigrant, who has been in the US for 12 years, has always lived in fear of being discovered, told the paper: “We’re going to leave the darkness. We’re going to stop being scared.” She wants “a better live” and is optimistic that she can take up her old profession as a nurse instead of cleaning houses, like she did here. Another immigrant,
27-year-old Martha from El Salvador, no qualifies for relief. “Finally. This means I’m going to be able to get an internship. This means I’m going to be able to get a real job,” the paper quoted her, teary eyed and happy. S.J. Lee, a Korean who stayed in Los Angeles after his tourist visa expired, and founded a family. He tells the LA Times reporter: “The president’s reassurances give us a bit of hope because he’s showing that he cares. He understands this is not an issue affecting just Latinos.” Governor Jerry Brown praised Obama and said that he “stepped up for hardworking families across America.”
Community Unites to Feed Thousands in Need at Union Station Homeless Services’ Annual Dinners-in-the-Park It’s a deeply beloved tradition in Pasadena: each Thanksgiving and Christmas, more than 850 volunteers of all ages – adorned with hair nets, aprons and plastic gloves – lovingly serve turkey with stuffing, green bean casserole, mashed potatoes and pie to those less fortunate in Pasadena’s Central Park. The tradition known as Dinner-in-the-Park began in 1972 when a group of local volunteers organized a free holiday meal to feed homeless and poor people in the community. More than four decades later, Union Station Homeless Service continues to organize the annual meal as an expression of compassion and care for those who otherwise might not see such holiday fare. This year, the tradition
continues. Union Station Homeless Services expects to serve more than 4,000 plates of food, along with the help of volunteers, and key community partners, including Goldstar, Home Street Bank, Tsutayo Ichioka & Satsuki Nakao Charitable Foundation, Super King, Longo Toyoto-Scion-Lexus, Sprouts Famers Market, Centerplate, and the Pasadena Convention Center. This wonderful community event provides thousands of holiday meals and hope for all who attend, including homeless men, women, children, seniors, very low-income families, and those with no place to go during the holidays. “We are so grateful to the caring volunteers who bring warmth and the true
spirit of community to Central Park each year, said Marv Gross, CEO of Union Station Homeless Services. “Their efforts to help us feed thousands of people is truly inspirational!” Volunteer registration for Thanksgiving is now closed, but the agency is still in need of non-perishable food donations. A Wish List of much needed items can be found athttp://unionstationhs.org/?p=3570. The community is invited to drop off these supplies (in the indicated sizes) at 412 S. Raymond. PLEASE NOTE: Due to Health Department regulations, Union Station Homeless Services is no longer able to accept turkey or prepared food donations at the event.

Rep. Schiff Renews Push for Body Cameras for Law Enforcement
Opinion Political Dust on Campus
Continued from page 1
and police alike. That will not be an easy task, but a good start would be committing to further diversify our police forces so they are more representative of the communities they police, and equipping officers with body cameras -- cameras that may have put to rest the fevered speculation that has characterized this case, or better yet, avoided the deadly altercation altogether. Schiff, along with other Members of Congress, recently sent a letter to U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder urging the Department of Justice to help fund local police departments’ purchase of small body-
worn cameras. From the letter: “Police departments around the country have begun adopting small body-worn cameras for police officers on patrol. These cameras provide a visual and audio record of interactions with the public, so that in the event of a confrontation or policeinvolved shooting, such as the one that occurred in Ferguson, there is an inalterable record of the events. There are also indications that the presence of body cameras has a civilizing effect on both police officers and the public, resulting in lower incidences of excessive force complaints and deescalating
tense situations before they become violent. Perhaps most importantly, cameras can instill greater trust in police departments on the part of the public they are sworn to protect. In communities with frayed police-community relations, cameras demonstrate a commitment on the part of the local police department to transparency and accountability, while protecting officers from false or frivolous complaints. For all these reasons, the adoption of body cameras has been well received in the jurisdictions that have begun to use them, both by the public and the officers wearing the cameras.”

Since 1993, more than 100 million boys and girls in over 130 countries have experienced God’s love through the power of shoebox gifts from Operation Christmas Child. Samaritan’s Purse (www.samaritanspurse.org/ occ) works with local churches and ministry partners to deliver the gifts via plane, train, boat, car, sled and even horseback in order to share both the life-changing Good News of Jesus Christ as well Christmas gifts that will bless their lives! Pastor Obed Mukanirwa, from the Democratic Republic of the Congo explained: “When the OCC boxes were delivered, dra-
By Carrie Kingston mas, songs, and a short message on Jesus as the greatest gift ever were presented to the children in the presence of a number of their parents. All the spectators were astonished and overjoyed to see how the presents came so far to reach children in another land without the senders even knowing to whom the gifts would be given. I was touched by how this truly shows God’s love.” “Samaritan’s Purse also provides amazing humanitarian efforts around the world,” stated Parent Education Director Anne Bierling. “OCC impressively mobilizes food and supplies during crises around the world such as war, famine, or even the recent ebola outbreak.” Sandy Padgett, LCPC Parent Education Outreach Chair, added: “Participating in Operation Christmas Child gives parents and children an
opportunity to donate items to needy children around the world--and introducing this concept is a great way to emphasize generosity over self indulgence during the Christmas season. “ About LCPC Parent Education If you have a child 0-18, LCPC Parent Education has a class for you!

The Gift of Thanksgiving is to “Keep America Beautiful” and to make “Budget Cut” Obsolete. How can we all keep GCC “Clean and Beautiful” when our campus is constantly bombarded with political dust, thus forming dust bunnies? Students rally, demonstrate, strike, and boycott against educational cuts, yet their pleas sound meaningless to the politicians’ ears. “You cannot reason with a hungry belly; it has no ears”. The United States faced the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression of the 1930’s during the global economic financial meltdown, after 2008. Politicians have surrendered themselves to two words “Budget Cut”, which have decayed in their mouths with a broken record, as we hear it constantly every single fiscal year without any plans of its end and restoration. This gives rise to their action and the meaning to their politics, without knowing how many constitutional values and virtues are being slashed along with it, and how much pain it will cause? We know that politics work with rules and regulations but sadly, “Budget Cut” has temporarily corrupted politicians’ rational minds, and the political dust has blinded their eyesight to fairness. All words have failed to register in the minds of the politicians such as: education or incarceration; higher standard of jobs; educational justice; economy and individual prosperity; inflation; lack of opportunities and mo-
bility; unemployment; foreclosures; rise of crimes; violence; increase of hunger and homelessness among students and families; justice; citizenship; democracy; rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness etc., and most importantly the “American Dream.” Evidently, Zeno of Elea’s advice does not apply to politicians: “Nature has given us one tongue and two ears so that we would listen twice as much as we speak.” How ironic that California suffered one of the highest unemployment rates of the nation 12.6% during the financial meltdown. Whereas, California’s competitive advantage rests in its higher education besides its agriculture. That has once considered a national and worldwide model. Politicians have persuaded themselves that they are doing the right thing by just focusing on the deficit and not realizing that their actions of “Budget Cut” can break bones and cause pain to people. “Words have no bones, but can break bones.” As Plato says, it is “Ignorance” that is “the root and stem of all evil.” The new counterword is “Dust.” All discussions led against “Budget Cut” can’t help to keep GCC “Clean and Beautiful”. If we start at a different end such as dust for striving to “Keep America Beautiful” than we might be able to reverse the damages of “Budget Cut” and bring about the desired improvements in our educational system. Before we move on to “Dust” that is ionized,
polarized, and its particles charged politically, and inviting the Health Department, EPA, and CDC to our campuses, let’s ask from our politicians at Thanksgiving to open up their hearts to receive the thanks and feel the gratitude to all who are contributing to the abundance of their Thanksgiving meal. “I tell you that virtue is not given by money, but that from virtue comes money and every other goods of man, public as well as private”, said Socrates. Gratitude is a virtue and the motivator of behaviors. The key for restoring the budget deficit is not cutting rather having a gratitude heart and accepting the labor and contributions of American people as gifts and return that gift back to them. It is this gift that will be the actual agent of change in our economy and be the bearer of new life to Californians, and help keep GCC, the City of Glendale, and America “Clean and Beautiful”. We are putting ourselves in the hands of the State and giving our labor, time, taxes, and also our thanksgiving-gifts to it. We would like to wait in silence at this Thanksgiving dinner while saying thanks and gratitude, until the State generously returns, with good will, our gifts back to us while stuffing the budget with thanks and gratitude. Happy Thanksgiving to the State of California and Happy Thanksgiving to America!!!!! - Rachel Melikian, Former GCC Woman of the Year

UCLA Scientists Discover Why Patients Respond to a Life-Saving Melanoma Drug
Monrovia’s Vintage Fire Engine: Where the Rubber Meets the Road
Continued from page 1
study, Tumeh and Ribas analyzed 46 patients with advanced melanoma treated with pembrolizumab who had undergone tumor biopsies before and during treatment. They analyzed biopsies of patients and classified them according to whether the patient responded or not to pembrolizumab. In collaboration with fellow Jonsson Cancer Center member, Dr. David Elashoff, adjunct professor of medicine, the information allowed them to develop an algorithm able to predict the likelihood of treatment success or failure.
By susan motander Fifteen additional tumor samples were obtained from patients given pembrolizumab in Paris, France, without Ribas’ team knowing what the clinical outcomes were. After applying their predictive algorithm, Tumeh correctly predicted what would happen in 13 out of the 15 patient cases. Keytruda was the first PD-1 immunotherapy drug approved by the FDA and there are eight others currently in clinical development. Ribas and Tumeh’s findings will help scientists and clinicians develop and correctly prescribe the best treatment for patients with
melanoma and other cancers. “The next big step is to classify the different types of patients that do not respond to treatments so we could modulate the drug to target their tumors,” said Tumeh. The findings are reported online November 26, 2014, ahead of print in the journalNature. This research was supported by Stand Up to Cancer and the National Institute of Health. Additional funding was provided by the UCLA Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center through philanthropy and other sources.
Hillsides Holiday Adopt-A-Family Program Aims to Help 80 Families Last May, the Galvan* family lost its apartment and was homeless for months. Mom Mary, a single mother, works at a minimum wage job to support her three daughters, ages 6, 10, and 12. The family never has enough for basics, such as sturdy shoes for the long 2.5 mile walk home from school each day. The youngest daughter, Alexandra, suffers from anxiety, and finds comfort playing “pretend” Barbies at school every day at recess. Because she doesn’t have a real Barbie, her teacher lets her borrow a stuffed bird, and Alexandra pretends the bird is a Barbie. The Galvan family is one of many throughout Los Angeles County struggling every day to make ends meet. The holidays, far from being joyful, are a depressing reminder that they have no money for presents or for a holiday dinner. Hillsides is hoping to bring holiday cheer to the Galvan family and other families in need through its annual Adopt-A-Family program. The agency has set a goal of providing 80 families with gifts and food for the holiday season, and is reaching out to the community to fulfill this goal. “Without this program, families will not be able to celebrate Christmas or have enough food to feed their family when the children are home from school during the holidays,” said Laura Kelso,
Hillsides director of community resources. “These donations will restore some sense of happiness in the families’ lives, bringing them comfort and joy and, in the case of the Galvan family, hopefully a Barbie.” Community members can choose the size of the family they wish to adopt, ranging from small (1 – 3 people), medium (3 – 5 people), or large (five plus individuals). The cost of adopting each family member is approximately $100. The deadline for adopting and shopping for a family is December 15. To adopt a family, please contact either Kelso at lkelso@hillsides.org or 323254-2274, ext. 1251 or Community Resources Assistant Stephanie Lopez at slopez@ hillsides.org or 323-254-2274, ext. 1258. Donors will receive a family profile, with specific needs and wishes of each family member, and instructions on shopping and
dropping off the items. For more information on adopting a family or for those who would like to support a family but don’t have time to shop, please visit http://www. hillsides.org/content/adoptfamily-holidays. For those unable to commit to adopting a family, Hillsides is also asking for gift cards in increments of $25 to stores such as Food 4 Less, Ralphs, Smart & Final, Walmart, and Vons. Those interested in purchasing gift cards can also contact Kelso or Lopez. Hillsides, headquartered in Pasadena, is a premier provider dedicated to improving the overall wellbeing and functioning of children, youth, and families in need. For more information on Hillsides, please visit www.hillsides.org. *Names and some details have been changed to protect the privacy of the family.

Monrovia’s very first Fire Engine, a 1917 Seagrave Triple, is being meticulously restored by Tired Iron Works largely with funds from an anonymous donor and additional assistance from other members of the community – Photos by Terry Miller
Monrovia’s first Fire Engine, a 1917 Seagrave Triple is being restored by Tired Iron Works largely with funds from an anonymous donor with additional assistance from other members of the community. The vintage engine is now in running order, its body has been restored and repainted and even the seat has been reupholstered. But additional funds are needed for the final restoration including purchasing very special solid rubber tires, not a small expense. For the rubber truly to meet the road, more assistance is needed. The engine is now owned by the Monrovia Firefighters’ Association and no public funds have been used in its purchase and restoration. The engine was first ordered by the city after the largest hotel in town burned down in 1916. It was the top of the line engine in its day, a triple with not just pumping capability (this distinguishes it from a fire truck), but also the ability to carry ladder as well as fight fires with chemicals. The engine served Monrovia for many years before being sold to Flintridge. Subseqtuently it was sold to several other firefighting agencies, each time to a smaller community. Ultimately he (this writer is of the opinion that fire engines are definitely male…explanations upon request) was acquired by the Harrah collection in Reno. Unfortunately, the collection was dissolved upon the death of its founder before this engine was restored.
Form there, Monrovia’s old engine moved from place to place, a tourist attraction called the Ponderosa Ranch, a restaurant and other private hands. Eventually, he was offered for sale to a Monrovia resident. The owner at that time wanted to sell it at once or was going to sell it piece by piece on line. And so a resident of Monrovia bought it and turned to the community for help. Brian Soash of Foothill Towing had it brought “home” at his own expense. For years it waited for someone to restore it. Finally the Firefighters’ Association took over its own aging treasure and enlisted the help of Chris
Kidd of Tired Iron. With the generous donation of hundreds of hours of time and with funds from the community, the restoration has been in process for over a year. The firefighters have been “passing the boot,” the firefighters’ traditional method of raising money, and have seen the total rise in the fire hose meter constructed to measure the progress of that fundraising. A final push for funds is needed to complete the engine. Donations can be sent to “Save the Grave” c/o Tired Iron, 135 East Foothill Blvd., Monrovia. The progress being made can be seen on Facebook at Save the Grave.

In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept a cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the California Financial Code and authorized to do business in California, or other such funds as may be acceptable to the Trustee. In the event tender other than cash is accepted, the Trustee may withhold the issuance of the Trustee’s Deed Upon Sale until funds become available to the payee or endorsee as a matter of right.

clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same Lender may hold more than one mortgage or Deed of Trust on the property.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 714-730-2727 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www.qualityloan.com , using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-14-619815-JP . Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. If the sale is set aside for any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the deposit paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee, or the Mortgagee’s Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holders right’s against the real property only. As required by law, you are hereby notified that a negative credit report reflecting on your credit record may be submitted to a credit report agency if you fail to fulfill the terms of your credit obligations. QUALITY MAY BE CONSIDERED A DEBT COLLECTOR ATTEMPTING TO COLLECT A DEBT AND ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED WILL BE USED FOR THAT PURPOSE.
