Increasing the Use of Body Worn Cameras, and Improving Community Policing Top of Obama’s Priority List The President has proposed a three-year, $263 million investment package that will: • Increase police officers’ use of body worn cameras • Expand training for law enforcement agencies (LEAs) • Add more resources for police department reform • Multiply the number of cities where the Department of Justice facilitates community and local LEA engagement Part of the proposal is a new Body Worn Camera Partnership Program, which would provide a 50 percent match to states and localities that purchase body worn cameras and requisite storage. In
fact, the proposed $75 million, three-year investment could help purchase 50,000 body worn cameras. As noted in a recent

WWII Flying Tigers Traveling Exhibit to Open at Monterey Park Bruggemeyer Library A traveling exhibit of 200 photographs documenting the history of the World War II “Flying Tigers,” will open on December 2 at the Monterey Park Bruggemeyer Library. The exhibit, which appeared at the Capitol Hill Rayburn Foyer in November, will visit air museums and libraries in Southern California after its first tour at the Monterey Park Bruggemeyer Library. The exhibition is the work of Pedro Chan, Ph.D., a long-time collector and donor of Flying Tigers memorabilia. Growing up in Macau, Chan heard stories about the Flying Tigers, an American fighting squadron of volunteer aviators that inspired him to learn more. “Salute to WWII Flying Tigers in China” is a fulfillment of Chan’s long-time goal to share the Flying Tigers legacy of honor and courage with people of all ages. Army Lieutenant General Claire L. Chennault commanded the Flying Tigers American Volunteer
Groups (AVG), China Air Task Force (CATF) and the Fourteenth Army Air Force (14th AAF) during the World War II campaign to defend China against invading Japanese forces. Chan says it was an honor to have Anna Chennault, widow of LTG Chennault, as an honorary sponsor of the exhibit. The public is invited to view the exhibit December 2-31 during library hours Monday through Sunday. For more information about the exhibit please contact the library at 626307-1368. The Monterey Park Bruggemeyer Library is the city’s public library located at 318 S. Ramona Avenue, Monterey Park, CA 91754. Library hours are Sundays 1-5 p.m.; Mondays and Tuesdays 12-9 p.m.; Wednesdays and Thursdays 10 a.m.-6 p.m.; Fridays and Saturdays 10 a.m.-1 p.m. For more City of Monterey Park news and information visit the city website at www.MontereyPark.ca.gov.

Homeland Security Probe Leads to Arrest of 2 British Subjects Continued from page 1
to illegally distribute the action movie sequel, were questioned and released on bail pending further court hearings in May 2015. Authorities allege the pair stole the film from a cloud-based system before uploading it onto the Internet. The pre-release leak of the movie was viewed hundreds of thousands of times, resulting in a significant financial loss to the companies that produced it, Lionsgate and Millennium Films. The film, featuring Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham and Arnold Schwarzenegger, was scheduled to premiere in U.S. movie theaters Aug. 15. However, sometime around July 25 a high-quality version of the movie appeared on the Internet. “The film and television production indus-
try contribute more than $80 billion a year to the domestic economy and their continued success is vital to the prosperity of the United States,” said Claude Arnold, special agent in charge for HSI Los Angeles. “Internet crooks don’t pay wages or taxes. They don’t fund pensions and healthcare plans. All they do is get rich at the expense of those who do. These arrests should serve as a warning shot across the bow of online pirates that we intend to hold them accountable for their crimes.” “The public needs to be aware that piracy is not a victimless crime,” said the PIPCU’s Detective Chief Inspector Danny Medlycott. “By downloading illegal music, film, TV and books, you are not only expos-
ing your own computer to the risk of viruses and malware, but you are also putting hardworking people’s livelihoods at risk as piracy threatens the security of thousands of jobs in the U.K.’s creative industries.” Last week’s arrests are the latest development in an HSI-led probe that began in late July after a representative for Lionsgate Films alerted HSI special agents about the pre-release leak of The Expendables 3. Investigators stress the probe is ongoing and more arrests are possible. In addition to authorities in the U.K., HSI has received significant assistance with the case from the U.S. Secret Service and the National Cyber-Forensics and Training Alliance in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

3,161-square-foot state-ofthe-art space adjacent to the Metro Gold Line’s future Arcadia Station. As one of six locations in Southern California where USC Eye Institute experts practice, the new Arcadia clinic offers comprehensive eye services, with sub-specialty expertise in glaucoma, cornea and retina care as well as ocular plastic surgery. Staffed to serve the Arcadia community, the clinic’s ophthalmologists also speak Mandarin, Cantonese, Vietnamese, Korean, Hindi, Spanish and German. The grand opening event welcomed 150 people and was hosted by USC Health Senior Vice President and CEO Tom Jackiewicz, Keck School of Medicine of USC Dean Carmen Puliafito, M.D., MBA, and USC Eye Institute Director Rohit Varma, M.D., M.P.H. Arcadia Mayor John Wuo was also there to welcome the clinic. “Keck Medicine of USC is dedicated to bringing our exceptional medical care to the local communities of greater Los Angeles by expanding our clinic locations. We want to be closer to where our patients live,” Jackiewicz said. “Two miles is not a far move, but this new location is closer to the soon-to-be-built Metro station, making it more convenient for the local community to receive great patient care.”

The city of Arcadia, home to the Santa Anita Park racetrack, is predominantly Asian, a population that is more susceptible to high myopia (near-sightedness), myopic retinal degeneration including retinal holes and retinal detachments and narrow angle glaucoma. “We specialize in understanding and treating both the common and the most complex and challenging eye diseases that other eye centers may not be able to manage,” said Varma. “Asian-Americans should pay special consideration to eye conditions such as myopia, narrow angle glaucoma, cataracts, dry eye, diabetic retinopathy, and age-related macular degeneration. We want our community in Arcadia and the surrounding cities to know that we have the expertise in the early diagnosis and treatment of these conditions before they can become blinding.” Varma, who also is professor and chair of the Department of Ophthal-
mology at the Keck School of Medicine of USC, is a glaucoma specialist and has dedicated his career to studying the development of eye diseases in minority populations. He is the principal investigator for multiple National Institutes of Health-funded epidemiological studies, including the Chinese American Eye Study. Other ophthalmologists who will see patients at the Arcadia clinic include Linda Lam, M.D.(retinal diseases); Bibianna Reiser, M.D. (corneal disease, cataract and refractive surgery);Jonathan Song, M.D. (corneal disease, cataract and refractive surgery) and Sandy ZhangNunes, M.D. (oculo-facial plastic surgery). The newly expanded Arcadia clinic becomes the latest location where USC Eye Institute experts practice in Southern California, including: Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, Pasadena, Children’s Hospital Los Angeles and Los Angeles County + USC Medical Center.
Ex-Cake Drummer Sentenced to 15 Years to Life in Prison For Molesting 3-Year-Old Girl A former drummer for the alternative rock band Cake was sentenced today to 15 years to life in state prison for molesting a girl in 2009, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office announced. Los Angeles County
Superior Court Judge Fred Wapner sentenced Peter Ivan McNeal, 48, and ordered him to register as a sex offender for life. In March 2013, jurors found McNeal guilty of one count of oral copulation of a child 10 years
old or younger. Deputy District Attorney Elena Abramson said McNeal molested the girl on Thanksgiving 2009 at a Laurel Canyon home where he was a guest. The case was investigated by the Los Angeles Police Department
district manager of New York. “What better way to celebrate the season than to help Santa and his elves read the thousands and thousands of letters we have on hand.” “Operation Santa has made dreams come true for those in need for 102 years,” added Schnaars. “This is a time to cele-
brate how Postal Service employees, charitable organizations, businesses and others have made a difference in the lives of children coast to coast.” To learn more about the USPS Operation Santa program and to view a list of participating Post Offices, visit usps.com/ holidaynews.

Pasadena Sandwich Company, Pasadena Fire and PUSD help feed over 300 on Thanksgiving By Terry Miller The pace was brisk and the enthusiasm enormous at Pasadena Sandwich Company the Wednesday afternoon before Thanksgiving. The reason: The Fink Family and volunteers from the Fire Dept. (including the outgoing Chief Wells) were busy filling ‘Blessing Bags’ for their guests who will dine at the restaurant on Thanksgiving Day. Over 300 members of some 59 Pasadena Unified School District (PUSD) families who are transitioning from homelessness to self-sufficiency received a free Thanksgiving meal with all the trimmings from the popular Pasadena Sandwich Company on Thanksgiving Day. Pasadena Sandwich Company, in conjunction
with PUSD’s Families in Transition and the Pasadena Fire Department, provided a family-style feast at the restaurant as part of the third annual Thanksgiving ShareA-Meal for PUSD families. The event honors Stephen E. Fink, the co-founder of the Pasadena Sandwich Company who believed that nobody should ever be alone on Thanksgiving. “We are trying to distinguish a part of Pasadena that gets forgotten,” said Meghan Fink, co-owner of the Pasadena Sandwich Company. “No matter what your background is, we want people to feel welcomed on Thanksgiving.” On Wednesday, November 26th, at 3:00 p.m., Pasadena Firefighters and the
Fink family helped prepare food and fill blessing (gift) bags for their Thanksgiving guests. Included in these bags are gift cards, school supplies, hygiene packs and first aid kits. PUSD’s Families in Transition office, which connects homeless and transitional students and their families with appropriate services, is also collecting donations for families in need this holiday season. Donations of canned goods, toys, games, books and grocery gift cards can be dropped off at the Families in Transition Office (Room 127) located at 351 South Hudson Avenue in Pasadena. Contact PUSD Families in Transition at (626) 396-3600 ext. 88252 for more information.

Atkins Tuesday announced the members of the Democratic Caucus leadership team for the 2015-16 Legislative Session. Assemblymember Chris Holden (D-Pasadena) has been appointed Majority Floor Leader. The Majority Floor Leader represents the Speaker on the Assembly Floor and expedites Floor proceedings. Holden previously served as Majority Whip under Speaker Emeritus John A. Pérez,

Assembly Member Holden was first elected in 2012. “I am deeply honored Speaker Atkins appointed me Majority Leader of the California State Assembly. I appreciate her trust in my abilities and desire to do good work for the people of this great state. Progress has been made in balancing our state’s budget, protecting our state’s business climate, and investing in Cali-
fornia’s future through education; however, great challenges await us during the 2015-16 session as California faces underemployment, underperforming schools, and access to affordable housing. I look forward to working with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to improve wage growth, early childhood education, and ensuring that homeownership remains an attainable American Dream.”

Obama’s Priority Increasing Use of Body Worn Cameras Continued from Page 1
Forum (PERF), evidence shows that body worn cameras help strengthen accountability and transparency, and that officers and civilians both act in a more positive manner when they’re aware that a camera is present. The President is planning to create a Task Force on 21st Century Policing, chaired byPhiladelphia Police Commissioner Charles H. Ramsey, who also serves as President of the Major Cities Chiefs Police Association; and Laurie Robinson, professor at George Mason University and former Assistant Attorney General for DOJ’s Office of Justice ProgramsIn August, the President ordered a review of federal funding and programs that help equip state and local
law enforcement agencies (LEAs). Over the course of the review, the White House explored whether existing federal programs: • Provide LEAs with equipment that is appropriate for what their communities need • Ensure that LEAs have adequate policies in place for use of the equipment, and that their personnel are trained and certified on how to use this equipment • Encourage LEAs to employ practices and standards that prevent misuse or abuse of this equipment The final report, released today, finds inconsistencies in how these federal programs are structured, implemented, and audited. The
report also identifies four areas of further focus that could help ensure that these programs help maximize the safety and security of both police officers and their communities: 1. Local community engagement 2. Federal coordination and oversight 3. Training requirements 4. The communitypolicing model In light of this review, President Obama is planning to issue an Executive Order directing relevant agencies to work together and with law enforcement and civil rights and civil liberties organizations to develop specific recommendations within four months.
LCPC Parent Education Contributes to Operation Christmas Child La Canada Flintridge, CA, December 3, 2014Creating great joy for all involved, LCPC Parent Education again collected over 200 Operation Christmas Child (OCC) boxes filled with gifts, personal letters, and love. 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 de-
By Carrie Kingston livered, dramas, 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!

“A Little House Christmas” Brings Nostalgia to Sierra Madre Playhouse Ah-h-h, nostalgia—a hearkening back to the good ol’ days, even if they were before our time. “A Little House Christmas” at the Sierra Madre Playhouse takes us back to a pioneer Christmas that perhaps our great-grandparents might recall, if they were still alive. Yet most of us like to “borrow” those memories: trudging through the forest to find our perfect tree with its snowy branches… stockings hung by the chimney…moonlit sleigh rides…Christmas carols sung ‘round the piano or at children’s pageants…. So that’s where “Little House Christmas” takes us—back, back to visit Laura Ingalls Wilder’s family of her classic “Little House” books. The Ingalls girls, Laura and Mary, are aglow with anticipation of the coming holiday. Friend and relatives gather at their log cabin to enjoy each other and good eats. Some folks are a bit quirky. Uncle George, still traumatized from war, totes his guitar and smiles a lot, but is sparse with words. The girls dread teenage Nellie Oleson’s visit, for she’s mean and uppity. Her mother, too, puts on “cityfolk” airs. Jolie Adamson as Nellie, and Amy Tolsky as Mrs. Oleson both are appropriately snobbish. Amidst the festivities, alas! Thunderclaps announce a torrential storm. Pa braves the downpour to check out the raging river, and finds that the bridge to town has washed away. The girls fret: Will Santa be able to get to them? Pa and Ma worry, too, as they need to get to town for the girls’ presents. Will some kind of miracle happen? How easy it is to slip into yesteryear with the Ingalls family! Their warmth exudes the old-fashioned values of love, hard work, and family closeness. Pamela Daly, as Ma, busies herself cooking on the black kitchen stove. Laura and Mary are exuberantly bouncy girls, played by Hanna Victoria Stock and
Valerie Lohman, respectively. Pa (Eric Charles Jorgensen) is the goodnatured, devoted husband and father. His fiddleplaying, along with Uncle George’s guitar, proves lively tunes for jigs and reels, popular in their time. At first reluctant to dance, Ma finally shows her talents with an almost-defiant blaze of fancy footwork. Lindsey StrandPolyak, musicologist, and Rebecca Lord, musical director, researched rarely heard songs from the Little House books to bring them to this stage. Choreography is by Cheryl Baxter. Lovable, albeit silent, Uncle George (Jim Harnagel) watches the gaiety from the sidelines. Jeff Doba portrays Mr. Edwards as a rather humble, self-effacing but appreciative neighbor. The young men, Nick and Peter, add a youthful romantic touch. Andrew Stock plays Nick, and Fletcher Kamal plays Peter. The entire stage is a huge log cabin designed by Stephen Gifford. Doors are cleverly situated to convey both the indoors and outdoors as actors move from one to the other. A stone fireplace, a picnic table, and wooden chairs all add to the hominess. Be sure to take time for Lisa Wasserman’s foyer exhibit, this time describing the pioneer days in which the
play is set. Emily Chase directs “Little House Christmas,” which was adapted from the Wilder stories by James Deita. Estelle Campbell and Christian Lebano are co-producers. Stage manager is Alexis Robles, with Sara Haddadin assisting. Sara Gray designed the gingham dresses, aprons, and overalls. Lighting design is by Ana Cecilia Martin, and sound by Christopher Moscatiello. “A Little House Christmas” truly is a heartwarming treat for family holiday enjoyment at the Playhouse. It runs weekends through Saturday, Dec. 20, with additional performances Monday and Tuesday, Dec. 22 and 23 at 8 p.m. Curtain time is 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays, and 2:30 for Sunday matinees. The popular “talk-backs” are held after each matinee. Admission is $28 general, $25 for seniors (65+), $18 for youth (12-22) and $15 for children 11 and under. The Playhouse is at 87 W. Sierra Madre Blvd., Sierra Madre. Local eateries and free parking are nearby. For reservations or more information, phone (626) 355-4318, or visit the website, www.sierramadreplayhouse.org for online ticketing. For reservations for groups of 15 or more, phone (626) 836-2125.

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-14-619815JP . 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.
