Former No. 2 of LASD Charged With Obstructing Federal Investigation Into Misconduct at County Jails

Paul Tanaka, who was the second in command of the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department, and William Thomas Carey, who oversaw internal criminal investigations at the LASD, have been indicted on obstruction of justice charges for allegedly directing efforts to quash a federal investigation into corruption and civil rights violations by sheriff’s deputies at two downtown jail complexes. A federal grand jury May 13 returned a five-count indictment against Tanaka and Carey, who allegedly participated in a broad conspiracy to obstruct the investigation, a scheme that started when the Sheriff’s Department learned that an inmate at the Men’s Central Jail (MCJ) was an FBI informant. Tanaka and Carey alleg-

edly directed, oversaw, and participated in a conspiracy that last year resulted in the conviction of seven other former LASD deputies. The obstruction of justice case was announced at a news conference by Acting United States Attorney Stephanie Yonekura and FBI Assistant Director in Charge David Bowdich. Tanaka and Carey, both 56, are charged with conspiracy to obstruct justice, and each is named in one count of obstruction of justice. Carey is charged with two counts of making false declarations for perjuring himself last year during the trials of co-conspirators. SEE PG. 18

Lee Baca left his post in January 2014 amidst the federal investigation and the findings of a special commission on jail violence that cited a “failure of leadership” over the jails. While Baca has not been charged with any crime, he did personally “hand pick” Paul Tanaka for the number two position--which leads critics of Baca to believe there is more to this story. – Photo by Terry Miller

And Now for Something Completely Different… The British Are Coming to Sierra Madre June 6 By Terry Miller

Business Profile: knot too shabby P.19

I’ll ‘”borrow” the great line from Monty Python’s ‘Flying Circus’ BBC Television Show: “And now, for something completely different…” because it describes, in one absolutely glorious albeit confusing sentence, what the British Home’s June Faire is all about--something very different, indeed. It’s atypical to every “faire” you might attend in these, the former British colonies. The British Home will be holding its 2015 June Faire on Saturday, June 6, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Don’t miss it, or else! This family-friendly event celebrating “All Things British “is held annually on the first Saturday in June at Sierra Madre’s nonprofit independent and assisted living facility for seniors. In 1920 the British Home was founded by the Daughters of the British Empire and other philanthropic organizations as a retirement home for elderly British immigrants residing in the United States. The British Home later opened its doors to welcome older adults of all nationalities. Today it enjoys a distinct mix of residents from SEE PG. 15

Sierra Madre Middle School Project Manager Resigns By Terry Miller

According to Adam Wolfson (PIO at PUSD) Fraser Thompson, project manager, resigned from the Sierra Madre Middle school building project that seems to have taken an eternity to get to this point. Wolfson assured Sierra Madre Weekly that the school will be open in time for the next school year. The announcement prompted parents to take action via social media. Organize Sierra Madre Schools Facebook page: “We are sorry to report that the district has officially removed Fraser Thompson from his position as Project Manager at the middle school. This means the completion of the middle school will again be delayed. At the Board meeting we asked you to attend, about 20 parents showed up. This was nowhere near enough support to prompt the district to change course. Unfortunately if we want the district to listen we need at least 200 people SEE PG. 15

Terry & Mary Harmon - Owners -

Dear Editor: Please “think outside the box and help prepare our pre-K children through a proven, effective educational program that has been in our community since 1936 and is about to end forever!” As an experienced educator in all levels of education from pre-school through university, I deem it totally unacceptable to allow our “Parent Education/ Mommy & Me” classes in El Monte to disappear. Our Governor and Legislature decided, without consulting the public, that we no longer need to have this program in our communities. Adult Education Schools (the few that still remain) were specifically instructed to no longer fund any “Parent Education” Programs. In our El Monte UHSD Adult School, this program has been in existence since 1936, but now is on its way to the proverbial ash heap. Educators incessantly call for “Class Size Reduction”--One teacher for 20 students to improve academic achievement. Parent Education, by far, has the greatest number of adults per student in any program found anywhere. Our Parent Education Program has an adult to student ratio of ONE ADULT PER CHILD, under the guidance of a well-trained Early Childhood Teacher and Aide. Sideby-side, on Mon., Wed., Fri., for three hours each session, the little ones and their caring adults are prepared for success in Kindergarten and beyond. In my little four-yearold Gabriel’s class of 25, there are not only moms, but also dads, grandfathers, grandmothers, and even a caring neighbor who patiently mentor these little ones, who range in age from two to four years. These pre-Kindergarten

children learn to identify and write their upper case/ lower case ABCs and to write their names correctly. Numbers and counting they master. They learn to pay attention to the teacher and adults, who read them stories, lead them in dancing, and sing songs. With great confidence, before the whole class, these little ones orally share toys and items they bring from home. They work with a host of puzzles, building blocks, dinosaurs, magnets, etc., which promote their physical and mental development. In each class, they are presented with a model to construct, requiring their total focus, careful use of scissors, and glue to recreate the model craft of the day. Nutrition is the word of the day and outside play offers the children multiple opportunities to share playground equipment and learn from peers. Many of the adults and their little ones are English Language Learners and the skills they acquire will last for a life time, guaranteeing success in Kindergarten and beyond. Our El Monte City School District and Mountain View School District have been given a great deal of extra funding. The LCFF (Local Control Funding Formula), according to my research, provides an EXTRA TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS for each child that is an English Language Learner or beneficiary of free/reduced lunch. This is in addition to the already budgeted state funds: a true bonus. This money is supposed to be used to help educate children and their families! What better use for this money than to establish a Parent Education (Caring Adult in the Classroom Program) at every K-8 school site? As a former Kindergarten teacher, from day one, I could automatically identify my new students who had graduated from the Parent Education Program. They entered Kindergarten with confidence, and were wellprepared academically and socially to learn. Additionally, the parents of these children became among the most active parents in elementary, middle school, high school, and college. I urge Dr. Maribel Garcia, Superintendent of our El Monte City Schools and Dr. Lillian French, Superintendent of our Mountain View School District and their “bosses,” the elected School

Who Needs Enemies? By Dorothy Denne When you have friends like mine, you don't need enemies. I say that lovingly when I report that my longtime buddy, George Fasching, announced to just over 200 people that I was wearing my Salvation Army bra. Now, if you read my column recently about the man shopping for his wife, you know that Salvation Army bras “lift up the fallen” as opposed to the Catholic bras that support the masses, the Presbyterian that keep them staunch and upright, or the Lutherans that make mountains out of molehills. We were attending the annual Rotary Salute to Seniors at the Arcadia Community Center and George was the master of ceremo-

nies. This was the 28th year of the event and as George said, "Can you believe it?" Didn’t seem possible. There were several of us sitting in the room who were there 28 years ago. A little more white hair--or, in some cases, no hair. Most of us were a little less sure-of-foot than we were 28 years ago but, at one point, George did a kind of cool soft shoe with one of the young girls of the Orchesis Dance Company from Arcadia High School. He left immediately after the program for physical therapy and heat treatments. I? I came home, pulled off my Salvation Army, and took a nap.

Born in Chicago, Illinois, Carol Adaline Ulrich went to high school at Hyde Park High. She married her high school sweetheart, Peter H. Ulrich, on October 21, 1944 in Reno, Nevada. They subsequently moved to Riverside, California in 1945 where her three children were born: Carol Jean (Jeannie), Patricia Diane (Patt) and Peter James (Jim). While living in Riverside, Carol was active in Eden Lutheran Church and was a tireless volunteer at Riverside Community Hospital. In 1963 they moved to Los Angeles County, where she was active at Christ the Shepard Lutheran Church and Lutheran Church of the Cross and lent her considerable volunteering skills to

Arcadia Methodist Hospital. She is survived by her husband of 70

Franchisees in California are one step closer to being treated as the small business owners that they are, and not employees, now that Assemblymember Chris Holden's bill, AB 525, has passed off the Assembly Floor with a bipartisan vote of 54 to 10. The measure, jointly authored with Assembly Speaker Toni Atkins, Assemblymembers Bill Dodd (D-Napa) and Scott Wilk (R-Santa Clarita), now goes to the Senate. AB 525 would provide franchisee small business owners a greater level of protection from having their franchise contract arbitrarily terminated by adopting a "substantial compliance" standard for termination. This standard says franchise owners are making an honest effort to comply with the contract "As a former small business franchise owner, I can tell you that the one-sided nature of a franchise relationship quickly becomes apparent after signing these documents,"

testified Assemblymember Holden. "Right now it's easy for a company to get rid of a franchisee whether they've done anything wrong or not. These small business owners invest substantial time and money into the enter-

There are 11 great-grandchildren and one greatgreat-grandchild. Carol’s sense of humor will be greatly missed but lovingly remembered by all who knew her. In lieu of flowers, the family asked that donations be made in her name to the Arcadia Library Foundation, California Lutheran University, Music Department, or the Salvation Army.

for their families, and employ workers from their communities," said Speaker Atkins. "Unfortunately, loopholes in state law leave individual franchisees vulnerable to unfair practices from large corporations. AB 525 closes those loopholes and helps California franchises keep their doors open." The fear of termination and dissatisfaction with current franchise practices is widespread. In a statewide survey of franchisees, 40% of respondents said they might be terminated based on actions taken that they thought were appropriate for the operation of their business.

11 Critical Home Inspection Traps to be Aware of Weeks Before Listing Your Home for Sale By FLORETTA LAUBER Please send your social announcements and invitations to socialwhirl@beaconmedianews.com

Selmers Feted at Rotary’s Senior of the Year Event Fasching Delivers A Winner In one of the best ever, this year’s Senior Citizen of the Year award ceremony and luncheon, under the direction of Arcadia’s Mr. Show Biz George Fasching, was a TEN. The tasty lunch was planned by George and served by members of the Rotary. Arcadia Rotary Club has sponsored this community event for years in cooperation with the City of Arcadia. Mayor Gary Kovacic presented the congratulatory plaque to Jerry and Doris Selmer, this year’s honorees. Both Selmers are well

known for their devoted years of service to the Arcadia Public Library, serving in multiple offices. This year’s entertainment was a knockout that left me speechless (well almost!) The Orchesis Dance Company (all female juniors and seniors) from Arcadia High School performed dance numbers that would stand up against most Broadway shows. The performances were absolutely professional in presentation, ability, and costumes. I sat at Fasching’s table and enjoyed my visit with Dr.

Philip Wood, who told me of his being sent to Fullerton after 19 years ministering to residents of Arcadia at the Church of the Good Shepherd. He will be missed. Also at our table was former State Senator Bob Margett, who served on the City Council with me back in the ‘70s. Lots of “old memories”… The event is one of Arcadia’s highlights. The full City Council was present along with the Senior Citizen Commission and a full house of seniors who truly enjoyed this salute from the Rotary. PLEASE SEE PG. 10

any of these 11 items could cost you dearly in terms of repair. That’s why it’s critical that you read this report before you list your home. If you wait until the building inspector flags these issues for you, you will almost certainly experience costly delays in the close of your home sale or, worse, turn prospective buyers away altogether. In most cases, you can make a reasonable preinspection yourself if you know what you’re looking for, and knowing what you’re looking for can help you prevent little problems from growing into

costly and unmanageable ones. To help homesellers deal with this issue before their homes are listed, a free report entitled “11 Things You Need to Know to Pass Your Home Inspection” has been compiled which explains the issues involved. To order a FREE Special Report, call toll-free 1-888-300-4632 and enter 1003. You can call any time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Get your free special report NOW to learn how to ensure a home inspection doesn’t cost you the sale of your home.

Mexican Food Fast, Not Phony: El PatrĂłn

(let alone Los Angeles), Mexican restaurants are a dime a dozen. Many are decent, some are worth going back

to, and some are simply “deliciosoâ€? (delicious). El PatrĂłn is the latter. El PatrĂłn has two locations in Altadena. Alex Cortez owns and operates both locations and his family has been in the food business for a long time. This familial tradition to provide excellent Mexican food is on display at El PatrĂłn today. I decided to visit the Lincoln Avenue location on Sunday early afternoon. You could drive right by it if you are not looking for it. Sitting in a commercial shopping center, this location has a

40th Anniversary of Quality Antique Show at the Pasadena Center, May 29, 30, 31

The Pasadena Antique Show and Sale celebrates 40 years at the Pasadena Center. Established in 1975 by Bustamante Enterprises, Inc., this is now Pasadena’s largest and finest event of its kind. The show features rare treasures, antiques, fine art, decorative arts and vintage collectibles on May 29th, 30th, and 31st at the Pasadena Center. Exhibitors must abide by an established code of ethics, one of the highest in the industry, which assures customers can always shop with complete confidence. This is truly, “The Show Worth Waiting For.� The Pasadena Antique Show, open Friday and Saturday 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.

and Sunday 11 to 5. General admission $8, Seniors $5, and Children under 12 are admitted free. The Pasadena Center, 300 East Green Street,

small sit-down dining area where you order at the counter and your food is served to your table sometime later. I

did not have to wait long to feast on “desayunosâ€? (breakfast). Since I made my trip to El PatrĂłn prior to noon, I thought the huevos rancheros was the best pick! The friendly staff served me some fresh pico de gallo with chips to snack on while I waited for my main course. Then, a large oval plate came steaming over to my table. The eggs were cooked so perfectly that the cut of my fork allowed a delicious ooze of yoke to fall onto the tortilla beneath and join with the rice and beans. Everything about this dish hollered out

“authentic Mexican cuisine.â€? Even better, the price for this breakfast (plus an ice-cold orange juice) was not pretentious, and it makes it possible that you could dub El PatrĂłn a weekly hangout for superb Mexican food. As I also noticed, on top of extensive breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus, El PatrĂłn offers specials that sound as good in price as they do in potential taste. I was pleasantly surprised that, even though I had come at perhaps at an unusual time for Sunday diners, there were several people there from all walks of life (enjoying both breakfast and lunch). But, if you do not hear or read about El PatrĂłn, there is a chance you would drive right by with location. So, now that you know – and if you appreciate wellprepared, authentic Mexican food – you will slow down as you drive by, turn into the parking lot, and indulge in Mexican food nirvana. *For more information on El PatrĂłn, go to their website: elpatrononline.com.

I am Mexican American. And, as some readers might relate to, I grew up eating fresh Mexican rice and beans, watching my father eat menudo for breakfast, and making a couple hundred tamales over the Christmas holiday. Nowadays, Mexican food is split into two camps: â&#x20AC;&#x153;fresh-Mexâ&#x20AC;? and authentic Mexican. We all know the corporate leaders of the fresh-Mex craze that supplement Mexican food with white or brown rice and usually offer black beans. This is very different than authentic Mexican food. Yet, both styles possess a similarity: they can be served fast (maybe some quicker than others). The danger of expediently served Mexican food is the potential to sacrifice quality in the process. However, at El PatrĂłn in Altadena, fast meets authentic. The first thing I thought of when I took my first bite of El PatrĂłnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s take on huevos rancheros was that I could not wait to go home, call my father, and tell him I have a new, delicious Mexican restaurant we must try in Altadena. As we know very well, in Southern California

He joined the US Navy and served oversea during the Korean War. After his navy service he worked briefly as an auto mechanic. Then did construction work with his brother Gordon, the two later started the Mountjoy Construction Company. He was married to Earline Winnett until her death in 2009. He has two sons, Michael and Dennis Lee, and one daughter, Judy. Dennis was a member of the California State Assembly, having represented his father's old district from 2000 to 2006.

nia's 29th State Senate district. His political platform fits with that of the conservative wing of the Republican Party: he is prolife, opposes same-sex marriage, and supports both the war in Iraq and possible military intervention in Iran. On September 22, 2006, the Los Angeles Times reported that a statement in his website's biography said he served in the Korean War aboard the USS Missouri was incorrect; ship records later confirmed that he actually served aboard the USS Bremerton. Mountjoy said, "I think it was just something that somebody picked up, it didn’t come from me." However, Feinstein's campaign opined that the error raised enough doubts about Mountjoy’s credibility that Mountjoy was "not qualified to serve the people of California." Mountjoy was defeated by incumbent U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein by a wide margin (59-35 percent) in the general election held on November 7, 2006.

Powerful Empowerment A bi-monthly column

Duel Memberist After my last trip to Sam's, though, they finally have pushed me over the edge. Over the last few months Sam's has been eliminating products that they have carried for years and I expect to be there when I make the trip. The last straw came when I went to buy the first item on my list, a specific brand of hormone-free milk called Horizon. It has been there since I was first made aware of its existence years ago. Then out of the blue, poof, it was gone. Replaced with an off-brand of organic milk that I have never heard of and that I couldn't tell if it was hormone free or not. It was also insanely priced. I just wanted to by some milk, not the entire cow or stock in the dairy! Without getting into specifics, that wasn't the only item missing during this trip and by the time I was checking out, with only half of the things that were on my list, I was fuming. Unfortunately the checker chose to ask the wrong question, "So did you find everything okay Mr. Dunn?" After my negative and highly irritated response I'm sure she didn't ask that question for the rest of the day. So what this means is that I will be going to Costco on my way home from work one day this week. That store is in Alhambra which makes getting there no easy feat. As anyone who lives in the San Gabriel Valley will tell you, driving through Alhambra is like traveling to the 7th circle of Hell. It is the place where all of the worst drivers on the planet go to mingle. At least once I get there I know that I will find the things that I couldn't find at

By Bill Dunn

Most of us have a membership at one of the two major warehouse stores, Sam's Club or Costco. I say most of us based on the absurdly long lines and ridiculous parking we are faced with every time we go there. I have been a member of both for many years. It is a blessing, curse, and sometimes a necessity. While they are competitors, at times I feel like they are working together to force you into the world of duel membership. Most conspiracy theorists believe this to be true and have written major dissertations on it. They are the same people who will talk your ear off about the magic bullet, the fake landing on the moon, and the non-existence of global warming. Not really, but I thought it sounded good. My reason for being a "Duel Memberist" is simple and ascribes to the above mentioned conspiracy. While they do carry many of the same products, there are things that I want that one carries and the other does not. Sure that justifies the need for both, but when they start playing games with the products you expect to be there, it becomes aggravating. Personally, I find myself going to Sam's Club more often. It is geographically more desirable and for most products the prices are better. Costco is more “as the need arises.” Based on recent developments at Sam's, I may have to re-evaluate that balance. Lately Sam's purchasing and merchandising departments have started wreaking havoc with my time and shopping trips there. Costco does it as well; but not as frequently.

Sam's. I will pay a little more for them and it will take me longer to park and check out, but at least I will have the goods. That is, if I can find the products. What I mean by that is that the one shared factor at both places is that their merchandising directors must be direct descendants of the Marquis de Sade. The way that they compulsively move products around the store leads to shear torture for their customers and (from what I am told) the employees who are charged with restocking the shelves. Nothing makes customers more infuriated than to be forced to wander aimlessly around the store searching for something that has been moved from the spot it has been for years because of … who knows why? And, to be perfectly blunt, who cares? Just stop doing it. Newsflash: Most people don't like change. Maybe I am asking too much. I'm only the customer. A customer who is paying for the privilege of shopping at your store, so my needs and desires are probably lower on the totem pole than those of your purchasing and merchandising departments. Or maybe I am just crying over split milk. Bill Dunn has been a published opinion columnist for 15 years.

Leadership Character Can a company’s bottom line be positively influenced by a highly principled leader? A recent article in the Harvard Business Review describing a study by KRW International, a Minneapolis-based leadership consultancy organization, indicates that it can. KRW researchers identified four universal moral character traits: integrity, responsibility, forgiveness and compassion. Through interviews and questionnaires of employees and managers at 84 U.S. companies and nonprofits, the researches asked how consistently their CEOs and management teams demonstrated the traits. In addition, KRW analyzed the financial data of the companies. Findings showed that leaders who demonstrate the four character traits engage in behaviors such as standing up for what’s right, being concerned about the common good, forgiving mistakes and showing empathy. In addition, the average return on asset of these com-

panies was 9.35% over two years. This figure is almost five times as much as those with CEOs and management teams with lower character ratings where the return on asset was reported at 1.93%. If character development is good for both the leader and the bottom line, then what actions can a manager take to develop him or herself? Examples include working with a coach or a mentor, reading self-help books, asking for feedback, going on a retreat, meditating and monitoring one’s stress level.

This study indicates that leaders who work on their character (particularly by focusing on integrity, responsibility, forgiveness and compassion) not only become better people, but can also generate better financial outcomes for their organizations.

Stagecraft: a Hidden Gem of a Program Teacher Keith DeLuca begins his course with a lengthy unit on safety, followed by training in the proper use of tools. This is a unique opportunity for students to learn woodworking and for most students this is their first exposure to woodworking tools. The students are taught the proper way to coil cables--a skill that alone can land them a job! By the end of the school year students will have skills that they can add to their resume to qualify them for a job in the industry. Stagecraft students

choose an area in which to specialize such as lighting, set building, sound, audio or costuming. These subgroups overlap when the students help each other in order to complete a job. Leadership skills are developed as returning students mentor those new to the program. Students learn the process of set design through coming up with a plan together, submitting it for input from Mr. DeLuca and AHS Drama Instructor Steven Volpe, then making adjustments according to the feedback they receive.

Rep. Schiff Calls for Immediate Implementation of Positive Train Control Across the Country In the wake of the tragic Amtrak crash in Philadelphia that so far has cost the lives of eight people, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) called for urgent implementation of Positive Train Control (PTC), a predictive collision-avoidance technology which can override an operator to prevent train collisions and save lives. The technology consists of GPS signals and wayside devices that can detect unapproved train movement or trains going too fast with the ability to stop the train remotely. “Even after the Chatsworth crash that killed twenty-five, some in the railroad industry and in Congress have been trying to delay implementation of Positive Train Control across the country, but the tragic Amtrak accident this week reminds us again of the terrible price we pay for delay,” said Rep. Schiff. “While the Amtrak crash is under investigation, a number of experts are saying that PTC could have prevented this accident and many others that have occurred throughout the country. “I was disappointed to see the House Appropriations Committee yesterday reject an amendment by my colleagues to provide funding for PTC in the transportation funding bill, because

this shouldn’t be a partisan issue – we all need to continue working to improve funding for our critical infrastructure, and make sure that PTC is employed nationwide.” In 2008, Rep. Schiff authored legislation – the Rail Collision Prevention Act, which was ultimately included in the Rail Safety Improvement Act – to require all major U.S. railroads to install “positive train control” systems designed to help avoid collisions. These provisions came in response to the 2008 Metrolink-Union Pacific crash in Chatsworth, which killed 25 and injured 135, and a 2005 crash in Glendale where a Metrolink train collided with an automobile that was abandoned on the tracks. That collision killed 11 people and was the deadliest Metrolink crash in its history, until the tragic collision in Chatsworth. Under the Rail Safety Improvement Act, which Schiff helped pass, railroads are required to install the life-saving technology by the end of 2015. However, the Senate Commerce Committee recently approved a bill that would give railroads a five- to-seven year extension. Rail safety experts say a positive train control system could have prevented the Chatsworth and Union Pacific crashes.

Schiff’s 2008 legislation which was signed into law required that: -Require both commuter and passenger railroads and freight train that share a track to implement positive train control systems; -Requires installation of these systems on all other passenger rail lines and rail lines used to transport hazardous materials; and -Authorizes the Secretary of Transportation to assess fines up to $100,000 on rail carriers that fail to comply. The bill also mandated a safety analysis on using cell phones and other devices in the cab of the train and reforms the hours of service rule to ensure that train conductors and other personnel receive adequate rest on the job. Here is how positive train control systems work: Digital communications are combined with Global Positioning System (GPS) technology to monitor train locations and speeds. These systems can detect excessive speed, improperly aligned switches, whether trains are on the wrong track, unauthorized train movements, and whether trains have missed signals to slow or stop. If engineers do not comply with signals, the system automatically brings the trains to a stop.

the Shakespeare Club’s college scholarship grants. The Club will be recognizing and awarding scholarships to eight deserving graduating seniors on May 19th at their annual scholarship luncheon.

Embezzlement Allegations Prompt Azusa Officials to Oversee Little League Fundraiser By Joe Taglieri “There have been serious allegations of embezzlement, and those allegations are being investigated by the Azusa Police Department diligently,” Chief of Police Sam Gonzalez said in an interview. “We hope to identify all those

that are involved and exonerate all those that are not.” Council members voted 3-1 in favor of closely monitoring the league’s fireworks sales after City Manager Troy Butzlaff revoked a permit to conduct this year’s fund-

raiser. The league appealed the permit denial to the council, which approved a compromise allowing Azusa National to conduct its reportedly lucrative annual fireworks sale in early-July under the watch-

ful eye of the city’s finance department. Gonzalez said the investigation is focused on a “person of interest,” but he declined to identify the person by name or position with the league or divulge any other details related to the police probe. In testimony at the council meeting and in a letter to the city manager, the current Azusa National board president identified her predecessor as a central figure in the alleged embezzlement

Department has received a criminal complaint and is currently conducting a criminal investigation into allegations of financial malfeasance related to profits generated from fireworks sales by Azusa National Little League over the past two years,” Butzlaff wrote. “Until this investigation is complete and a determination has been made by the Azusa Police Department whether there has been any financial malfeasance and/or criminal wrongdoing by current or previous members of

In March board members voted unanimously to expel her from the league’s executive panel. “The board gave her 30 days to produce receipts, explain discrepancies and/or repay the alleged monies in question,” wrote Melisa Padovano, the league’s current board president. “When time expired, the board ... contacted the Azusa Police Department on Sunday, April 12, 2015, to open and conduct an investigation. Board members were questioned and all documents relating to all discrepancies were given to the Azusa Police Department.” Marsha Juarez directly preceded Padovano as Azusa National board president, according to a source familiar with the investigation who requested anonymity. Juarez held the position since 2012 until her ouster in March. Several websites describe Juarez as the league’s president, and Azusa National’s website lists Juarez’s phone number and email address on its contact information page. Juarez did not respond to requests for comment. The amount of money from fireworks sales allegedly pilfered from league coffers totals more than $20,000, the source said. According to Gonzalez, police first learned of the embezzlement allegations March 20. In an April 29 letter to Padovano, City Manager Troy Butzlaff spelled out his rationale for denying the popular local league’s permit application. “It has come to my attention that the Azusa Police

your Board of Directors, I believe it is in the public’s interest to deny your application for a fireworks sales permit.” Police Chief Gonzalez displayed a very thick binder that he said contained more than 300 pages of documents pertaining to the embezzlement inquiry. He reported that investigators still had a number of key steps to take before referring the case to the Los Angeles County District Attorney. “This is just a precautionary measure until the investigation is over,” Mayor Pro Tem Edward Alvarez said, summing up the council’s majority position to concerned and at times tearful Little League officials as well as concerned parents and community members in attendance at Azusa Auditorium. Council Member Angel Carrillo did not attend the meeting and did not vote on the matter, while Council Member Uriel Macias cast the dissenting vote. “I want them to continue with the permit but not with the conditions that I think are unfair,” said Macias, whose preference was to allow the Azusa National board to continue managing funds raised from fireworks sales without involving city officials as long as improvements were made to the league’s financial accounting procedures. “I have an issue where the city telling the Little League how to run their operation just as much as I would have with the city telling anybody how to run their business or any nonprofit, for

Antonovich honors veterans this Saturday at the 18th annual “Remembering Our Veterans and Their Families” event at Arcadia County Park. A special ceremony will be held at 11 a.m. The family event will include skydivers, flyovers, a “Wall of Remembrance” of veterans (bring copies of photos of your loved ones to place on the Wall), displays of military vehicles and equipment, a children’s area (face painting, arts and crafts, games, entertainment, free popcorn), free vaccinations, free haircuts and manicures, live entertainment, gourmet food trucks, food booths and more.

that matter,” Macias said. “This is a permit process, there are standards, and right now as your city manager I cannot tell you in all good conscience that I can approve a permit based upon the facts that I know to date,” Butzlaff explained in response to Macias’ comments. A number of league officials and community members implored the council to reinstate Azusa National’s fireworks sales permit, noting its importance to the league’s fiscal survival. “They have put checks and balances in order to make sure that this will not happen again,” said Jerry Curcio, who supervises California District 19 for the now international Little League organization based in Willamsport, Pa., that was founded in 1939. Azusa National board member Raquel Castaneda credited fireworks profits with keeping the enrollment fee at $45, which is lower than most youth baseball leagues in the area. “If the fees go up tremendously, that will be something that will be difficult for parents,” she told the council. Enrollment for Azusa National’s 2015 season totals 178 players ages 4-16 including a division for specialneeds children and young adults.

I say, I say, I say….What’s All This Then ? Blimey, It’s the June Faire! Continued from page 1

many different backgrounds in many cities across the United States and United Kingdom. Even though we are divided undeniably by a common language, the British mother tongue will be wellrepresented Saturday June 6 at the Faire but should you need a translator, no worries mate--there’s always someone willing to interpret. The British Home management hopes that you pop by and do a little more than “spend a penny” June 6--public toilets cost a penny in the old days in England. But Blimey (pretty good word to use when you are surprised) you won’t need your brollie as the weather is always perfect for the June Faire. Just make sure you bring lots of that lovely lolly (greenbacks, to you Yanks). If you’re feeling puckish (hungry) fear not, as there is something for everyone. Fancy a nice pickled onion (the absolute best), or how about a sausage roll? Contrary to popular American mythology, English food is far from awful and the beer most certainly is not served warm. Whoever started spreading that nonsensical misinformation should be hanged, drawn and quartered, as well as tarred and feathered (yes, some lovely English medieval traditions do live on in the sometimes-very-dark recesses of the minds of

journalists.) The British Home’s residents meet regularly throughout the year to generate items that are then offered for sale from their own booths at the Faire. You may find Members of the DBE (Daughters of the British Empire), organized into individual Chapters of the DBE from the Western States, sell items from their colorful and often whimsical booths to raise money to benefit The British Home. These booths are also judged for decorations and creativity. The residents look forward to the festive atmosphere of this day, meeting old friends and new, eating traditional British food and having a nice cuppa. English bangers (and mash) are always a favorite, as are the scones, but only if you have some of the Real Devon Clotted Cream atop the mysterious sweet. Traditional dancing and all things British are definitely the order of the day. You’ll find trinkets and treasures from the UK as well. Last year I found a Silver Jubilee plate for a mere pound note (about $2). And, if you’re a book lover, there’s always a great used book selection. The British Home is a non-profit organization well known for outstanding service to senior citizens. The Home’s beautifully landscaped four and a half acres contain five separate cottages, each having its

own lounge, kitchen, and individual en-suite bedrooms. The five cottages combined provide high quality independent living for a total of 37 residents. One cottage is devoted for assisted living for current residents in need of additional attention. If you look a bit dodgy (suspicious) there will be a Bobby (British Policeman) who’ll be on duty at the entrance of the British Home all day to keep out cheeky buggers. One of the most popular Faire features is the Raffle Booth, where tickets may be purchased to enter the $1,000 Grand Prize Raffle. The first, second and third place winners, who need not be present, are announced at the conclusion of the Faire. The British Home is located at 647 Manzanita Avenue in Sierra Madre, in a residential area, with parking along Ramona and Manzanita Avenues, as well as on the side streets.

This case was handled by the same law firm we have, so they should know better. How can the City Manager and the City Attorney justify their statements as being perfectly lawful?

which would not only save a large sum of money, but also get the work done on a timely basis instead of six to ten months for plan-checking. Since the charge to each customer is ten percent for the UUT and fifteen percent for the Franchise fee, then why is the income on the franchise fees only approximately ten percent of the amount shown for the UUT? How much is the income from the water bills? Nothing has been said since the rate increases went into effect. Is anything being spent on repairing the tunnels or water pumps? If not, then when will this maintenance take place? With the continuing drought, it is vitally important for the city to improve the supply and repair any leaks. Since the water meters cost approximately one hundred dollars each and have a life span of ten years or more, why has the meter east doubled? Does reading a meter six times a year really cost that much? What are the people supposed to think of an administration that keeps saying that less than ten million dollars annually goes into the account known as the General Fund, when all the 21 million plus income from all sources goes into the General Fund, and is paid out from that one bank account? There seems to be little evidence of control of spending. There certainly appear to be times when the cash in the bank, including restricted funds, does not cover the spending without dipping into the restricted funds. This is commonly called comingling. The City Council is simply provided information that the administration wants us to hear in the form that they present to us in their point of view. What else can be said, other than we are only given limited information. What does it take to get the whole picture? Who is looking for ways to cut the spending on needless endeavors and when will the City make judgments in favor of the people instead of the pressure group known as "Preserve Sierra Madre"? If that group wants to do something useful, then have them work on bringing back the local business we had in the “good old days." What does it take to right the ship? As the saying goes, "Shape up or ship out!" -Sierra Madre Watchman

to do so. Please help get the word out. If you have a child in or heading to middle school you must be a part of the action. This is a 3 year school and the majority of the original parents have moved on. We need a new group of parents to step up now.

Then, they will require new assignments. Nelson is trying to say that he will supervise the project him-

He will have to slow it down because he will need to be brought up to speed before he can make a decision and then he will not have the time to adequately manage our project along with his present job as Chief of Facilities. “On top of all that, what Nelson really wants is pull all of the current contractors off the projects across the district and install HIS contractors. He talked about this at a meeting that Gretchen and Mikala attended. He announced his

intention to clear house and start over which , in effect will blow up all of the project timelines across the district, not just ours. “PUSD’s newly hired Chief of Facilities, Nelson Cayabyab has announced that he wants to STOP projects and hire new people. He has a history of doing this in another school district. “By the way, the agenda of the Facilities Subcommittee meeting includes firing our inspector and redirecting the funds to San Rafael where Superintendent McDonald’s children attend school.”

Gabrielino’s Screamin’ Eagles Speech Team Advances to Nationals By jennifer schlueter In March, Gabrielino High School’s Screamin’ Eagles speech team qualified 17 students for the world’s largest academic competition, the National Speech and Debate Association’s 90th annual National Championship Tournament in Dallas this summer. Gabrielino High can be viewed as a successful underdog because of its lower socio-economic status compared to other participating usually-

wealthier schools. Established along with Gabrielino High School, and founded by today’s Principal Sharron Heinrich, Gabrielino’s Screamin’ Eagles have constantly ranked among the top teams nationally for the past decade. The team has grown to be the fourth largest in the nation and ranked as the Top Program in Southern California from 2001 to 2011, in 2013 and 2015. Competitions range

from oral presentations in dramatic, duo, or thematic interpretations, impromptu speaking, expository, to debates and more. Students at Gabrielino join the speech class, an elective led by teacher Derek, often in their freshman year – some with experience from middle school. Current speech team co-captain Jonathan, a senior, said he hoped to overcome his fear of giving presentations by participating. Jonathan's performance partner, junior Giselle, enjoys being in front of people and was inspired by her friends who took speech classes and a show case. Most of their peers were afraid of public speaking before they joined. Funny enough, they fear talking to their class mates rather than a large group of strangers, explains Derek. Highly motivated, Giselle, Jonathan, and the other students often sacrifice after-school time and weekends voluntarily to join competitions. State tournaments offer scholarships worth up to $300, whereas nationwide winners can receive $5,000 to $10,000.

PCC Fundraiser Nets Proceeds of Nearly $1.1 Million for Student Scholarships The Pasadena City College (PCC) Foundation’s first scholarship fundraising gala, “PCC Celebrates Student Success,” held Saturday, May 16, raised record-setting net proceeds of nearly $1.1 million for scholarships to PCC students. Proceeds will underwrite more than 200 additional scholarships every year, increasing the number of annual scholarships by nearly one-third to 850 and scholarship giving to more than $850,000, up from the more than $650,000 in scholarships it now awards annually. More than 500 guests attended the evening event, which was held on the PCC campus. The gala was chaired by Pasadena Area Community College District trustee Bill Thomson and his wife, Carol, and noted Southern California philanthropist Alyce Williamson, co-chair. “‘PCC Celebrates Student Success’ is one of the most successful, if not the most successful, fundrais-

ing events ever held in the San Gabriel Valley,” said John Gregory, PCC Foundation board president. “We are indebted to our supporters whose generosity will help change the future for thousands of PCC students who otherwise could not achieve their dream of a college education.” Every year, PCC students face a shortfall of more than $50 million in financial aid – even with assistance from Pell grants, college district tuition waivers, and work study and student loan programs. Nearly 70 percent of PCC’s 25,000 students need financial assistance to pay for not only tuition but books, supplies, food, housing, transportation and, in some cases, child care. Honorees: The PCC Foundation recognized three major contributors and supporters who have played key roles in supporting the mission of the college and foundation: • Bill and Brenda Galloway – Real estate developers and philanthropists Bill

Galloway, a PCC alumnus, and his wife, Brenda, operate Summit Enterprises, their family-owned residential commercial property investment firm. • The Boone/Fetter Family – MaryLou Boone and her children, Lynda Boone-Fetter (husband Blaine Fetter), Susanne Boone and Nick Boone, as well as her grandchild, Nic Fetter, have made philanthropy a family tradition spanning three generations. • Pasadena Tournament of Roses – PCC’s long relationship with the parade began in 1930, when the college’s marching band became the official Tournament of Roses Honor Band. In 2014, the honor band debuted new uniforms, which were purchased with financial support from the Tournament of Roses. Established in 1983, the nonprofit Tournament of Roses Foundation has awarded more than $2.5 million in grants to more than 170 Pasadena-area community organizations.

Derek notes that a majority of the kids go on to the best colleges or move up to high ranks in the military. Sending them to high-level national competitions with the best students in the country makes the Screamin’ Eagles all very ambitious, self-motivated, and disciplined; they work hard and take pride in their work. Publicly, the team’s success might be measured with trophies, but for teacher Derek, success is defined as advancing the kids’ skills, making them overcome their fears of public speaking, and consistently per-

forming well. Within the last few years, the success of the Screamin’ Eagles has taken them all over the United States. While traveling, Giselle loves the experiences in and outside of the competitions because “you get to learn about your personal strengths as a speaker as well as bond with your team during down time.” Jonathan enjoys making people laugh: “What I consider laughter to be is a moment of genuine happiness. You can be having the worst day but if you laugh, you’re happy, even if it’s only for a split second. So

I think it’s really great to give that to people and be able to make them laugh because it just feels so good to be able to hear a whole crowd laughing because of you.” The team at Gabrielino is special to its members. From it, Giselle learned that “every ounce of progress will accumulate to something great.” They know that their acquired skills will be of great value for them in their future careers. Jonathan says that the speech class is “not easy. But if you keep pushing … trying to improve, you’ll get a lot out of this program. We are here because we chose to be.”

The Pasadena Unified School District (PUSD) will start preliminary testing this month to begin determining the exact age of the faults that pass under the San Rafael Elementary School campus, pending board approval. In 2012 an extensive fault rupture investigation was conducted at the San Rafael School site in preparation for modernization projects under the Measure TT facilities bond. As part of the initial and more extensive testing, it was found that there appeared to be four active earthquake faults on the school property, with an approximately 90% probability for each one existing and being active (exhibiting evidence of seismic activity at some point within the past 11,700 years). With this discovery the board was provided information that the Department of State Ar-

chitect will not allow or approve plans to move forward with any modernization or upgrades on any school facility that is within 50 feet of any earthquake faults. It is important to note that the San Rafael Elementary School site meets Field Act standards, which are more stringent for K-12 public schools than for any other buildings, including homes and businesses. In the wake of the discovery of faults, a 7-11 Surplus Property Advisory Committee was convened in 2014. The committee recognized the strong desire in the community to maintain a school on the San Rafael campus and recommended the continuation of seismic investigation to determine if the identified faults or anomalies are active or not. The preliminary tests that are about to begin are in line with the committee’s primary recommenda-

tion. These tests, which will likely lead to trenching on the school campus, will determine with 99% certainty whether or not the faults are active. Any trenching would be limited to the San Rafael campus and take place during the school’s summer recess. If determined to be inactive, the district would be able to proceed with the modernization of the school. The PUSD Board of Education is scheduled to approve Phase 1 testing and authorize a bid process for Phase 2 trenching at the San Rafael Campus as part of its next regular meeting on May 21, 2015.

Tanaka was the undersheriff – the number two in the LASD – until 2013, and he ran an unsuccessful campaign for sheriff last year. Carey left the LASD after reaching the rank of captain and heading the Internal Criminal Investigations Bureau. The two defendants were well aware of “problem deputies” at the jails, “allegations of rampant abuse of inmates,” and “insufficient internal investigations” into deputy misconduct. But against this backdrop, Tanaka allegedly told deputies assigned to the jails to work in a “gray area” and that he thought that the LASD Internal Affairs Bureau should be reduced from 45 investigators to just one. The scheme to thwart the federal investigation allegedly started when deputies in August 2011 recovered a mobile phone from an inmate in MCJ, linked the phone to the FBI, and determined that the inmate was an informant for the FBI and was cooperating in a federal corruption civil rights investigation. The phone was given to the inmate by a corrupt deputy, who subsequently pleaded guilty to federal bribery charges. Alarmed by the federal investigation, members of the conspiracy, guided by Tanaka and Carey, took affirmative steps to hide the cooperator from the FBI and the United States Marshals Service, which was attempting to bring the inmate to testify before a federal grand jury in response to an order issued by a federal judge. The indictment alleges that as part of the conspiracy, the deputies altered records to make it appear that the cooperator had been released. They then re-booked the inmate under a different name, moved him to secure locations, prohibited FBI access to the informant, and then told the cooperator that he had been abandoned

by the FBI. Over the course of several weeks, members of the conspiracy allegedly sought an order from a Los Angeles Superior Court judge that would have compelled the FBI to turn over information about its investigation to the LASD. After the judge refused to issue the order because he had no jurisdiction over the federal law enforcement agency, and even though it was clear that the FBI was properly acting in the course of a lawful investigation, Tanaka and Carey met to discuss having two sergeants approach the lead FBI case agent. Soon thereafter, the sergeants confronted the agent at her residence in an attempt to intimidate her. The sergeants threatened the agent with arrest and later reiterated this threat to her supervisor, stating that the agent’s arrest was imminent. “As the allegations demonstrate, Tanaka had a large role in institutionalizing certain illegal behavior within the Sheriff’s Department,” said Acting United States Attorney Stephanie Yonekura. “This case also illustrates how leaders who foster and then try to hide a corrupt culture, will be held accountable, just like their subordinates.” The indictment also alleges that Tanaka and Carey oversaw co-conspirators who told fellow deputies not to cooperate in the federal investigation. Members of the conspiracy allegedly engaged in witness tampering by telling fellow deputies that the FBI would lie, threaten, manipulate and blackmail them to obtain information about the Sheriff’s Department. “The allegations in the indictment include coverups, diversionary tactics, retribution and a culture generally reserved for Hollywood scripts,” said David Bowdich, Assistant Director in Charge of the FBI’s Los Angeles Field

Office. “The public held the defendants to the highest standard, but, instead, they spent their time and energy setting a tone which minimized the value of their oath and dishonored the badge they wore.” An indictment contains allegations that a defendant has committed a crime. Every defendant is presumed to be innocent until and unless proven guilty in court. The conspiracy count carries a statutory maximum sentence of five years in federal prison, and the obstruction of justice charges carry a maximum penalty of 10 years. The two false declaration counts against Carey each carry a potential penalty of five years. As a result of this investigation, a total of 21 defendants who held various ranks in the LASD have been charged, including the deputy who took the bribe to smuggle the phone and seven co-conspirators in the scheme to obstruct justice. The investigation into corruption, civil rights abuses, and obstruction of justice related to the Los Angeles County jails is being conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The ACLU of Southern California says indictment indicates LASD has work to do to regain public trust. Executive Director Hector Villagra stated on May 13: “….what is clear is that no one is above the law. Both men have done immeasurable harm to the department’s reputation and undermined public trust in the very agents who are supposed to serve and protect the public. As Chief Justice Earl Warren wisely noted, ‘The police must obey the law while enforcing the law.’ The indictments clearly indicate just how much work the Sheriff’s department has to do to rebuild public’s trust.”

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING BEFORE THE ARCADIA CITY COUNCIL

by amelia favela vard makes it a point to seek and sell only items that have been used. One of the core values of knot too shabby is to encourage customers, who typically range from 25- to 55-year-old women, to tackle the creative task of producing their own oneof-a kind vintage-looking pieces. In order to do this, the business sells specialty paints and supplies, such as Milk pain and Chalk paint. To cater to clients, Rivard offers on-the-phone service for anyone who is unsure on how to use the paint products after purchasing them. knot too shabby offers workshops throughout the month where attendees can create their own rare items with the help of an on-site instructor. Some of the workshops include: Glitter and Glamour, Beer and Brushes, Milkshakes and Milk Paint, and Paint with A Princess birthday parties, to name a few. One of the challenges Rivard faces is being a small business with big business

knot too shabby “knot too shabby” is a vintage home décor and furniture store located in Glendora and Old Town Monrovia. The not-so-shabby business offers its customers the opportunity to not only buy antique-style items, but to create them as well. In addition to selling hardware, refinished furniture, specialty paints and supplies, home décor, and doing customizations, knot too shabby also makes available special workshops that guide attendees into producing their own oneof-a-kind vintage-looking items. Founder and owner Michele Rivard had plans of working in interior design since the age of 12. After retiring as an emergency services manager for the Anaheim Fire Department to start a family, Rivard began collecting and refurbishing abandoned items. “I would take furniture I found at yard sales, or on the side of the road, and after my kids went to bed, I would go in my garage and paint for 2-3 hours,” said Rivard. Shortly after, knot too shabby was born. The founder utilized online resources to sell the restored items, and after four years of working out of her garage, Rivard was able to open her first store in Glendora, CA; the second location in Monrovia came four years later in 2015. Amidst the eclectic items, the underlined themes of knot too shabby are re-purposed, up-cycled, all-natural, hand-made products that are locally produced. Rather than merely having the illusion of being old-fashioned, Ri-

expectations. “I don’t have the fluidity to be able to offer returns or exchanges on stuff because I’m constantly reinvesting back into the store … it’s this constant turn around,” said the owner. As a solution, she and her family-like employees make every effort to educate customers about the business policies. Rivard said the constant goal of knot too shabby is to empower people to have creative minds. ‘They can do this, they can paint, they can be inspired to pick stuff off the side of the road and re-purpose it; we’re here to help.” For workshop info, store locations, and general information, visit the knot too shabby website at www. knottooshabby.net.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction.

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 this property. Note: Because the Beneficiary reserves the right to bid less than the total debt owed, it is possible that at the time of the sale the opening bid may be less than the total debt 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.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. 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, 1-800-2802832 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site, www. auction.com, for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, T.S.# 9462-0959. 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. 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 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.

Opportunities Abound in the Duarte Unified School District by MAY S. RUIZ

in an effort to provide the most enriching academic and learning environment for all their students. The district has the only STEM partnership of its kind with City of Hope, for kindergarten through 12th grade

competitive health industry. Students enrolled in the T.E.A.C.H. Project receive mentoring, job shadowing, and internships offered by City of Hope. Through it, they interact with scientists, healthcare professionals,

Tapped Graduates,” this is just part of their high school experience. Located at the foothills of the San Gabriel Valley, Duarte High School is one of two secondary schools in the Duarte Unified School District. It has a total enrollment of 1,200 students, 90% of whom are minorities; 48% male and 52% female; with a total of 41 teachers. It was recognized as a California Distinguished school in 2007 for its high test scores and academic achievement. Newsweek magazine thrice named it one of the top public high schools in the United States. According to Mark Sims, principal of Duarte High School, the school provides both college and career pathways. There are three college counselors and one Regional Occupation Program (ROP) specialist for the 250 seniors. They offer 12 AP courses and have a graduation rate of 98-99%. Over 80% of Duarte High seniors attend college after graduation -- one of the highest levels in the San Gabriel Valley. It is also the only institution in the area offering an Early College program. Graduates of the 2011-2012 school year were pioneers in getting both a high school diploma and 30 college credits simultaneously from Citrus College. Under the leadership of Dr. Terry Nichols, Superintendent of DUSD, the district continuously looks for opportunities to collaborate with various organizations

students. It also created the first customized version of the Pathways in Technology Early College High School (P-TECH) model in California, which launched during the 2014-2015 school year. Calling it the T.E.A.C.H. Project (Train, Educate, and Accelerate Careers in Healthcare), this academy gives the opportunity for 9th thru 12th grade students to graduate with both a high school diploma and a low (or no) cost Associate in Information in Technology Degree from Citrus College. It equips students with marketable skills to gain employment in the very

and educators who are experts in their field, and students gain the knowledge and experience necessary to build careers in health information technology. Because of the district’s large percentage of underrepresented groups, the T.E.A.C.H. program has been customized to meet their needs and engage their interests. At Duarte High, College Fairs as well as Career Days are held throughout the year. Presenters at these events represent college and career pathways in the Arts, Media and Entertainment; Business/Support Services; Health and Hu-

It isn’t a common occurrence for high schoolers to conduct real-life experiments at a nationally recognized research center. For rising 11th and 12th graders at Duarte High School, “Home of the Shoulder-

man Resources; and Technology and Engineering fields. Some of the companies and organizations that participated in this year’s event include: City of Hope, California Highway Patrol, The Art Institute, Computer Scientists, Ready Pac Foods, and Civil Engineers, to name a few. The district also has a unique mentoring program that matches students with local mentors resulting in long-lasting relationships. Forty-five mentors who are community leaders and business owners provide guidance, support, and encouragement to students who have been identified as needing additional support to seek college and career choices. These mentors meet with their mentees at the Mt. Olive or DHS campuses, and through text, email and video conference. Community partners include Caltech, JPL, USC, APU, L.A. Sheriff’s Dept., Youth Activities League, Foothill Federal Credit Un-

ion, and others. In 2010, the district passed Measure E, a multimillion dollar bond that led to the construction of facilities designed for a 21st century learning environment. The bond provided for modernization projects at all schools including a brand new, state-of-art stadium, cafeteria complex and bio-tech laboratory. According to Jenny Owen, DUSD Chief Communications Officer, every classroom has a Smart Board and each student from 2nd thru 12th grade is provided with a laptop computer to use in class; 7th and 8th graders also take them home. They even provide parents who are not tech-savvy with training on computers and give low-cost internet access and WiFi service to families without, so students can do

their homework. At a time when schools are cutting back on arts classes because of budget cuts, Duarte Unified added 6th grade band programs at every elementary school and expanded secondary arts programs assisted by grants that included the Mr. Holland’s Opus Foundation. At Duarte High, band and choir continue to earn awards in their divisions. Athletically, this year DHS won four league championship titles; the volleyball team competed in the CIF finals; and the school was recognized with two “Coach of the Year” awards. There is so much going on at Duarte Unified School District! With all the opportunities available for the student population, it’s surprising there isn’t a mass migration into the area!

Monrovia Clinches Softball Playoff Berth After Defeating El Monte 4-1 By Vincent Nguyen

Monrovia batter Hunter Alvarez swings during her team’s 4-1 wild-card game win over El Monte on Tuesday, May 19. The victory notched a spot for playoff contention. - Photo by Vincent Nguyen

With the postseason on the line in Tuesday’s wildcard softball game between the Monrovia Wildcats and the El Monte Lions, Monrovia sophomore pitcher Britney Lopez (#24) rose to the occasion and produced six shutout innings to lead the Wildcats to a 4-1 victory over the Lions. Both teams were held at a stalemate until the second inning when the Wildcats outfielder Alyssa Salva (#10) struck one low toward centerfield to bring home shortstop Brooke Mann (#13). Again, both pitchers threw a 1-2-3 inning in the third, before centerfielder Hunter Alvarez (#8) earned the Wildcats another run in the fourth thanks to a single from Samantha Diaz (#23).

The Lions didn’t look all too threatening until the fifth inning, where El Monte finally earned runners on base thanks to two consecutive walks. Until then, Lopez had not allowed a single hit. Coach Guzman was confident his pitcher would get out of a high-pressured situation she was in at the top of the fifth after giving up two consecutive walks. He said she is accustomed of breaking out of intense circumstances, earning her the nickname “Poker Face” from her teammates. Two fly balls and a strikeout closed out the inning, continuing the Monrovia pitcher’s clutch performance for the afternoon. Lopez earned double-digit strikeouts and didn’t allow

a single hit or single run, a streak that would eventually end at the top of the seventh when El Monte’s Naomi Ramirez (#11) singled out toward centerfield. Ramirez would also earn the Lions’ only run of the game with the help of Miranda Hernandez’s (#3) single toward right field. Before that, a pair of runs and a handful of singles in the sixth brought the Wildcats’ tally to four, thanks to scorers Vicky Gutierrez (#2) and Shaniah Bland (#42) who helped the Wildcats closed out the game. Monrovia will face La Quinta High School at 3:15 p.m. on Thursday in the first round of the 2015 CIF Southern Section Softball Playoffs.

Melody Gauthier, Rosemead High School's all-time leading scorer in girls’ basketball with 1,528 points, signed on May 13th to finish her college career at Hope International University in Fullerton, California. Gauthier played her first two years in college at Los Angeles Valley College and helped the team reach the state quarterfinals as a freshman. Gauthier played four years on Rosemead High School varsity for her father Jay Gauthier Sr., Rosemead's all-time winning girls coach with 10 Mission

Valley League titles in 12 years. Melody was named Mission Valley League Most Valuable Player three times, lead the league in scoring her last three years, twice topped the league in assists, and scored a Rosemead girls’ single game record of 39 points in a win against Gabrielino. Gauthier and her Rosemead teammate Sydney Hua, a sophomore guard next season at LA Valley College, both were on Rosemead teams that won every league game all four years they attended Rosemead and graduated in 2013 with Rosemead on

a 56-game league winning streak.
