Seven-Year-Old Sells Lemonade to Thank Local Cops With Box of Donuts

‘Heart Melting Moment,’ Says El Monte PD With all the national media focusing on so many shootings in the nation’s police departments … one young man in El Monte wanted to show his appreciation for the officers who protect his neighborhood. The following was posted on El Monte PD’s Facebook page: “While most kids spend their remaining days of summer salvaging their remaining days of fun, 7-yearold Cruz Acosta ran a lemonade stand yesterday in the 100 degree heat. But the reason why he did this will surprise you. “He spent the entire day in the heat serving up lemonade in order to raise enough money to buy a box of donuts for the men and women of the El Monte Police Department. “His parents said, ‘With all the stuff happening on the news, our son felt compelled to show you all you are appreciated.’ “Well little Cruz did it. He raised enough money to buy us this delicious box! This unexpected surprise happened when he showed up to the station along with mom and dad and this huge pink box! “Thank you Acosta family and thank you Cruz for your support. Your sign of appreciation is humbling and a reminder of why each of our members feels they belong to our community. Thank you again Cruz and family.” Sincerely, - Your El Monte Police Department

This year it seems that every time fire personnel get a fire under control, another one breaks out elsewhere in the state. Just as the San Gabriel Complex fire was resolved, fire broke out in Santa Clarita with the Sand Fire. Now, with that blaze under control, another fire has taken over the headlines, this one in northern California, south of Carmel. The most recent reports indicate that the blaze is now over 33,000 acres in size, has destroyed 68 structures, and has claimed the life of one bulldozer operator.

More than 2,000 homes are threatened by the fire and there are over 5,000 firefighters from throughout the state battling the blaze. Among those battling this fire is an engine company from Monrovia. Monrovia has sent Fire Engine 101 with a four-person strike team to assist in that fire fight. According to City Manager Oliver Chi, the team has been assigned to night operations as a part of the Rana Division. Chi also pointed out that based on the mutual aid agreements, the city will eventually be reimbursed for the personnel costs.

Metro reminds you to pay your fare.

Deputies Interrupt Sierra Madre Burglary One Suspect Apprehended Burglars cut a hole in the roof of Best Buy Drugs in Sierra Madre last week; however deputies quickly nabbed the culprit. LASD Temple Station said deputies found one suspect hiding in a shed, but didn’t know how many accomplices eluded capture. A 911 call reported see-

ing someone break into the pharmacy around 3:40 a.m. at 29 Baldwin Ave. When deputies arrived, a man jumped off the roof and ran. Best Buy Drugs has been burglarized several times in the past couple of years, according to police reports.

Southern California Edison Completes Critical Repairs

Southern California Edison recently completed emergency repair work on an electrical vault below Temple City Boulevard, just south of Las Tunas Drive. A routine inspection revealed that the concrete vault was in danger of collapse, resulting in costly equipment damage and long-term electrical outages.

Because the vault is located in the middle of Temple City Boulevard, the street was reduced to one lane of traffic in each direction for several days while repairs were completed. Edison worked to minimize any impact to its electric customers; and Edison and the city partnered to minimize traffic and other impacts on the community.

Reader Responds to ‘New Arcadia Fire Chief Appointed’ (7/7/16 Issue)

The change is one in a series at city hall over the past year as several longtime administrators have retired. Knowles joined the department as a firefight-

Letter Regarding Mental Illness and Gun Violence

Dear Editor: At the Democratic Convention many speakers spoke about outrageous gun violence. The NRA has control over many politicians in Congress - this must change. However, most of the recent killings have been committed by some mentally ill individuals, including the Connecticut killer, the Aurora, Colorado theater killer, the Virginia Tech killer, and the Charleston killer. Each had mental illness that was not being treated. In Newtown, Conn., there was a state mental

hospital at one time and I assume it has closed. The Sandy Hook, Conn. killer should have been in such a facility. His own mother purchased his guns. Remember the “Unabomber?” A Schizophrenic who received no treatment. The mentally ill released on to the streets cannot care for themselves. They have no medication and often end up homeless. Others are from wealthy families, like the man who attempted to kill Ronald Reagan. Mental illness can strike anyone and medication can help their mental demons and we must encourage our leaders to help fund clinics to help those afflicted if we’re not going to confine them. - S. Johnson SAN GABRIEL

Joseph Polk was born on Nov. 12, 1937 in Swoyersville, Pa. Polk’s parents were American-born children of Polish immigrants. The original family name was Pokrzywnicki, which his father shortened to Polk, before Joe and his brother Donald turned 21-yearsold. Pokl loved sports and played basketball on his high school’s basketball team that won a Pennsylvania state championship. He earned a bachelor’s in business from Rutgers University in New Jersey in 1961, where he enrolled in ROTC and became an officer in the Air Force (AF) after graduating. In the AF, from 1962 to 1970, Joe served as a hospital administrator in Texas, Germany, and North Dakota. Joe was fluent in German, and he wrote that he had a “deep interest in German culture and language,” which others knew included German beer. He considered himself to have been exiled to North Dakota for his last year in the AF, when he told them he would not re-enlist. While in the AF, he married his wife Candace in Texas, earned a master’s from the University of Chicago in December 1965 (after 15 months of a heavy course schedule), and welcomed his son Blair into the world on June 15, 1969, while in North Dakota. After leaving the AF, he moved to Mississippi, the original home state of his wife. From 1970 to 1975, Polk was a senior financial analyst in the comptroller’s office for Xerox’s southern region. He then turned to investment management and advising private clients. His

marriage ultimately ended in divorce, after which Polk undertook the care of his only child, Blair, who had special medical needs, and they both moved to Arcadia. In his retirement years, Joe worked part time as circulation manager for these newspapers, and Blair would help deliver papers. Polk was deeply saddened when Blair passed away a couple of years ago. To know Polk was to like him. Always with a great sense of humor, he enjoyed making new friends, particularly women. Women of all ages (including those much younger than him) were attracted to Polk’s sincere friendship and love of music. On the walls of his Arcadia townhouse were countless pictures of a smiling Polk, with a beautiful woman (or two) who had their arms draped around him, often taken by a close friend and local photojournalist who loved to chronicle Polk’s generosity and his exploits that were the envy of men half his age. Always respectful, Polk had a natural charm that women found hard to resist. However, he maintained that there was really only one love in his life, Gloria, with whom he had spent many wonderful

times over the years. Polk had a passion for music, in particular Jazz and Blues. He enjoyed attending outdoor concerts at Cal Phil and other venues, and he was a regular attendee at the Taste of Arcadia, perhaps because of the scantily-clad Brazilian dancing girls who are prominently featured at the event each year. Polk loved to watch the Lakers with friends and he enjoyed socializing with friends at local restaurants and speak-easies. He maintained many close friendships. Politics and history piqued Polk’s interest and he loved a good argument, which he generally won. His wide knowledge and recall of facts were admirable - this, combined with his terrific sense of humor, made Polk not only a force to be reckoned with, but also a sheer delight to be with, whether at Novel Café, Lucky Baldwin’s, Peppers, or BJ’s Steakhouse. Indeed beer (especially Pilsners) was near and dear to Polk’s heart. He was happiest when he was partaking in both music and beer. Many people knew Polk and will cherish memories of his stories, wit, and repartee. Polk became bed-ridden after an attack this past March, and he was transferred to a hospice in Santa Barbara in early April. His good humor and charm carried on even then. He liked the food so he asked the female cook to marry him. He flirted with all the female nurses and attendants. Always agreeable and pleasant, he became one of the staff’s favorite patients. Polk is survived by his brother, Donald Polk, who lives in Santa Barbara.

Floretta Adelaide Keith Lauber passed away peacefully in Arcadia, on Aug. 1, 2016. Born in Sierra Madre on June 18, 1926 to Helen Jewell Keith and Boyd E. Keith, Lauber was predeceased by her husband, Harry Ray Lauber, and brother Boyd Bowman Keith. She is survived by her son, Lawrence K. Lauber, of Prescott, Ariz.; nephew, Craig McClain of Glendora; her precious dog, Kisses; and countless friends and colleagues. A civic leader and community icon, Lauber began her City of Arcadia service in the 1960s as a member of the personnel board and was the first female appointed to Arcadia’s Planning Commission. In 1974, she was the first woman to be elected to the Arcadia City Council, serving as mayor in 1976. Her role in community causes and service organizations is legendary. She was a 55-year member of the Arcadia Woman’s Club, serving as president three times and continuously working to preserve and support the historical clubhouse on First Avenue. In her final days, she commented that when she entered the clubhouse foyer she “felt warm and at home.” Members of the Arcadia Woman’s Club recently placed a memorial bench in the clubhouse garden to celebrate Lauber’s devotion to her beloved Arcadia Woman’s Club. Lauber was the charter president (from 1981 to

1983) of the Alpha Auxiliary of Methodist Hospital and an honorary member of both Arcadia Altrusa and the Arcadia Lions Club. She was a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution, earning its prestigious Historic Preservation Recognition Award in 2014. She was a member of the Assistance League of Arcadia, the Arcadia Community Coordinating Council, and Friends of the Arcadia Public Library. She was a life member of the Arcadia Historical Society, serving as its president from 2001 to 2002, and was an eight-year member of the city’s historical commission, which later became the museum commission. In 2005, Lauber was honored by the Chamber of Commerce as Arcadia’s Citizen of the year, and in 2014 was the recipient of the Arcadia Chinese Association Community Services Award.

A strong supporter of the Gilb Museum of Arcadia Heritage, in 2010 Lauber established and served as president of the Arcadia Historical Museum Foundation and was the leading force in the design, fundraising and building of the Arcadia Museum Education Center which was completed in 2014. To further support and enrich the museum and the museum education center, Lauber founded the Friends of the Arcadia Museum in 2013. For nearly 20 years, Lauber was the social editor for the Beacon Media News, using the byline “Social Whirl,” enjoying immensely the opportunity to give praise and exposure to local organizations and individuals for their community involvement. A viewing will take place on Aug.10, between 4 p.m. and 8 p.m., in the Monroe Room at Douglass & Zook Mortuary, 600 E. Foothill Blvd., Monrovia. Funeral services will be held at the Sierra Madre Congregational Church, 170 W. Sierra Madre Blvd., Sierra Madre, on Aug. 11 at 10 a.m., with burial following at Live Oak Memorial Park in Monrovia. A reception will follow at the Women’s Club of Arcadia, 324 S. First Ave., Arcadia. Donations may be made in Lauber’s honor to the Woman’s Club of Arcadia (PO Box 660861, Arcadia, CA 91066) or the Arcadia Historical Museum Foundation (PO Box 661514, Arcadia, CA 91066).

MONROVIA July 29 At 12:04 a.m., officers were on patrol, heading south on California, when a motorcycle passed them, traveling north on California at a high rate of speed. The officers made a u-turn and drove after the motorcyclist to stop him. A short pursuit ensued onto the 210 Freeway. The motorcyclist exited the freeway at Irwindale Avenue and drove into a gas station at Irwindale Avenue and Foothill. The suspect then exited onto Foothill to make a left turn, but did not see a raised island in the middle of the street. The motorcyclist slammed on his brakes to avoid hitting the island, causing the police car, which was behind him, to collide into his rear tire. The motorcycle toppled over and the suspect ran north, across Foothill. The officers gave chase and apprehended him as he attempted to jump over a wall into a rock quarry. The suspect was found to have a suspended license, warrants for his arrest, stolen checks, and he was driving under the influence of drugs. He was taken to a hospital for a minor cut and complaint of pain to his shoulder, then booked for several felony and misdemeanor charges, as well as the outstanding warrants. July 30

At 7 a.m., an incident of mailbox tampering was reported at an apartment complex in the 300 block of Genoa Avenue. Sometime between midnight and 7 a.m., someone pried open the door to the apartment mailbox. No loss could be substantiated at the time of the report. The investigation is continuing.

At 7:58 a.m., an officer observed a bicyclist commit a vehicle code violation. The officer stopped the subject on the bike and, during the investigation, a syringe was found on his person. The subject was arrested and later issued a citation to appear in court. At 8:31 p.m., an incident of domestic violence was reported in the 1100 block of Sesmas Street. A male subject called police to report his wife was intoxicated and was damaging his property. Officers arrived and learned the wife had slapped and scratched her husband, causing injuries. The wife was arrested for domestic violence and the case will be submitted to the district attorney’s office for filing. Aug. 1

At 3:02 a.m., police responded to the report of a fight in progress involving five to six subjects in the 100 block of West Duarte Road. The subjects had fled the area, several of them in a taxi. An officer located the taxi turning south on Shamrock from Duarte. Several subjects were in the taxi that had been involved in the fight. One subject, who was the victim of battery during the fight, was taken to the hospital for treatment; one was taken into custody for possession of narcotics; and a third subject was arrested for an outstanding warrant. The suspects who committed the battery were not found. The investigation is continuing.

PASADENA

July 27 On July 2, a suspect and a female accomplice entered a music store. The

suspect subsequently stole items from the store and he may be linked to other thefts throughout Southern California. The case was assigned to Detective T. Blanchard and Officer A. Torres, who completed a comprehensive followup investigation. Detective Blanchard and Officer Torres identified the suspect and released a want flyer to their PPD coworkers. On July 27, Suspect Bobadilla was arrested by Officers M. Calderon and C. Prestwich, while on routine patrol. July 30

At 8:20 p.m., Pasadena Police officers responded to the area of Morton and Hammond regarding a shooting. On arrival, officers located a gunshot victim (male, Black, 50s). The victim was uncooperative and did not provide much information to the investigating officers. The victim was transported to Huntington Memorial Hospital. While PPD officers were at the hospital, a second victim (male, Black, 50s) arrived in a private vehicle, also suffering from a gunshot wound. The second victim only provided limited information about the shooting. Both victims are in stable condition. Investigation is ongoing. July 31

At about 7 a.m., Pasadena Police officers responded to the 700 block of South Orange Grove Boulevard regarding a man with a gun. While driving to the location, officers learned the suspect (male, White, 20s) was pointing a semi-automatic pistol at innocent bystanders as he walked along Orange Grove Boulevard. On arrival, PPD officers were ini-

tially unable to locate the suspect; however, he was later located hiding in the bushes in the 300 block of Markham Place. Officers immediately contained the area and attempted to negotiate with the suspect; however, he (the suspect) refused to surrender. Officers could clearly see the suspect was armed with a pistol, which created a dangerous situation for the first responders and the neighbors. Using the department’s Bear-Cat Rescue Vehicle, some neighbors were evacuated out of an abundance of caution. PPD officers continued to talk with the suspect and at the same time, established emergency response teams (ERT) who were equipped with less-lethal devices. The ERT team approached the suspect’s location and deployed a canine team. The suspect was taken into custody without further incident. Fortunately, no gunshots were fired. Pasadena Police officers recovered a fully loaded semi-automatic pistol and following a field show up, the suspect was positively identified (Jordan Creger, male, White, 26). Creger was later transported to a local hospital for medical evaluation.

SIERRA MADRE July 27

At approximately 10:20 a.m. officers were flagged down by a citizen at the corner of Hermosa Avenue and Ramona Avenue. A male cyclist was lying in the street after apparently falling of his bicycle. The Sierra Madre Fire Department responded after victim complained of shoulder pain. The cyclist was transported

to a local hospital for treatment of his injuries. July 29

At about 3 a.m., LASD Deputies responded to an attempted break-in robbery in the 00 block of North Baldwin Avenue. A two-block section of the area was cordoned off while SMPD officers, deputies, and LASD Air Support searched the area, resulting in the apprehension of one suspect, while another suspect is still at large. Case was forwarded to detectives. July 30

Officers responded to the 200 block of North Sunnyside Avenue regarding a report of vandalism. Victim stated that at about 1 p.m., she was informed that a tire on both cars were flat. This is the second time in a few months that suspect(s) have deflated victim’s tires. At 11:10 p.m., a resident called SMPD to report vandalism at a residence in the 500 block of North Hermosa Avenue. Suspect(s) not in the area as officers arrived. Case is under investigation.

ARCADIA

July 26 At about 4:34 p.m., officers responded to Michael Kors, 400 S. Baldwin Ave., regarding a report of fraud that had just occurred. An investigation revealed the suspect made large purchases with fraudulent credit cards. The 28-yearold male from El Monte was arrested and transported to the Arcadia City Jail for booking.

North Woods San Gabriel Celebrates 50 Years

www.WhereMusicMeetsTheSoul.com 888-645-5006 Dinner Seating/Service Available For All Performances

All month long, from Aug. 1 to 31, North Woods is celebrating the milestone of being 50 years old. Founder John Clearman would be pleased to know so many generations have enjoyed what he hoped would be a unique environment for friends and family to relax in and make memories. More memories are sure to be made this month as Clearman’s San Gabriel is giving away six $50 gift certificates during the month. There is also an opportunity drawing for a magnum bottle of their signature wine. “This will be a fun celebration,” says Manager Richard Selvik. “We have developed our own special label wine for diners to enjoy at a “birthday price” and we are offering cocktail specials, including a signature drink called ‘The Woods,’ which will be a great treat for

our customers.” Just one of the things that make North Woods Inn special is that diners are welcome to toss peanut shells on the floor, something never permitted at home. Well, this month, diners will also receive a bag of peanuts to take home. The formula for such success over these 50 years has included the woodsy atmosphere of a snow-topped

hunting lodge. The interior carries that mood through with stacked log walls, mountain scenes in the leaded glass windows, antique chandeliers, and old-time oil paintings. But, there’s nothing stuffy about Clearman’s. This is casual family dining. Long-established restaurants must deliver maximum value and North Woods’ menu

assures families of plenty of choices to satisfy all tastes and ages. From ample appetizers to endless salad and decadent cheese bread, every family has their favorite reason for returning. The lunch and dinner menu is full of top quality steaks, lots of seafood choices (like lobster tail and jumbo shrimp), roasted chicken, and so much more. Lunch sandwiches come with huge sides, making office lunches an event. Speaking of events, as they celebrate their own anniversary, patrons are reminded that birthdays and all celebrations of any size are welcome. Clearman’s North Woods Inn is open from 11:30 a.m. daily and is located just south of Huntington Drive at 7247 Rosemead Blvd. in San Gabriel.

High Point Academy Imagines a Bright Future By may S. ruiz Carved into the foothills of Pasadena is a kindergarten to eighth grade independent school that has consistently provided an outstanding education for its students throughout the past 50 years. High Point Academy (HPA), located on five compact acres on Kinneloa Canyon Road, to this day remains competitive in a market which reputedly boasts some of the most high-achieving educational institutions in the state. HPA was established in October 1965 when three women decided to open a small school for a few children. With Millicent Wilson serving as the first headmaster, it opened on Chester Avenue with 16 pupils; the following year enrollment grew to 50. In 1967 it had 75 students and eight teachers, and another space had to be leased to accommodate third to ninth graders. By 1973 it became clear that their existing site wasn’t big enough for all their students; construction on its present location began shortly thereafter. In 1974 the 15 faculty members welcomed 230 students on their first day of school in this brandnew structure that featured a sports field. School uni-

High Point offers a vast array of subjects, including: math; science; history/social studies; language arts (reading and writing); world languages (Spanish and French); writers’ workshop; technology (coding, robotics, STEAM); visual arts and choral music; instrumental music; daily physical education; library program twice weekly; and a technology class (computer lab) several times a week. - Photos by Debra Snyder

forms were also introduced that year and a $10 donation to the building fund was incorporated into the monthly statements (it continued until 1990). The HPA library was opened and a junior high (seventh and eighth grades) science department was created in 1976. The decade between 1977 and 1987 saw more classroom and building additions, as well as the in-

stallation of computers. When the school observed its 25th anniversary in 1990 it had 312 students, 29 teachers, and three administrators. In 1993 John Higgins was appointed the sixth headmaster. He served in this office for 21 years and oversaw major expansions of the school’s facilities. He also ushered in the age of technology with the installation of

Smartboards in every classroom, the launch of a digital library, and the introduction of laptops in junior high. Under Higgins’ charge HPA’s enrollment reached its capacity of 350 students. The staff and faculty grew to about 55 (31 teachers, one librarian, one school counselor, one learning specialist, seven aides and student supervisors; with the rest in administrative capacities). Six-

teen teachers hold master’s degrees and faculty boast an average length of service of 10 years. High Point offers a vast array of subjects, including: math; science; history/social studies; language arts (reading and writing); world languages (Spanish and French); writers’ workshop; technology (coding, robotics, STEAM); visual arts and choral music; instrumental music; daily physical education; library program twice weekly; and a technology class (computer lab) several times a week. After-school enrichment courses are offered every day during the school year with Kindercare for kindergartners and Eagle Club for grades one to eight. Some programs include: bricks 4 kids; chess club; dance; mad science; mathnasium; robotics; STEAM; cub scouts and girl scouts. An after-school musical theatre program is likewise available. Most seventh and eighth graders are in athletic teams and play a variety of sports in five different seasons in the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF). HPA has a middle school placement program designed to help students and families find the perfect fit for them. Graduates matriculate to some of the most highly-se-

lective schools in the Pasadena area including Polytechnic, Flintridge Prep, Mayfield Senior, and Westridge. By the time Higgins retired in 2014, HPA had gained a reputation as one of the best elementary and junior high schools in the area. The sports field was renamed “Higgins Field” to commemorate his enviable legacy. Dr. Timothy Burns was appointed interim headmaster for the 2014-2015 school year. Gary Stern, who in 2015 succeeded Dr. Burns as the eighth headmaster, is charged with ensuring the next half-century measures up to the success of the first five decades. Several events marked his first year, the highlight of which was a “Golden Gala” held in April to celebrate High Point’s anniversary in style. Says Stern, “Sometime in the early part of the 20162017 school year, we will bury a time capsule to be opened in 2041. Students have gathered mementos from the five decades that denoted a noteworthy event of the period. Each student included in this time capsule things that represent who we are today and their dreams and aspirations for the future. They also put in their predictions about how life will change over the next 25 years.” This fall, Stern will unveil HPA’s strategic five-year plan, which outlines what’s ahead. Created in collaboration with the board of trustees, administrators, faculty, staff, parents, and students, he says it will provide a clear path forward to allow High Point to remain true to its mission and core values, and successfully grow and evolve. It was indeed quite an auspicious beginning for Stern. That he came on board during this milestone year for High Point must have been predetermined by fate as he himself celebrated his 50th birthday. And just as he is looking forward to the rest of his productive life, he is likewise eager to lead this singular school to achieve greater significance in the San Gabriel Valley.

Wright begins her assignment Sept. 1. Wright has spent more than a decade working in education, with a focus on special education. Since December 2014, she has worked for the California State Board of Education as an education policy consultant and liaison between the state board and the CDE on a variety of subjects, including special education, child nutrition, foster and homeless youth, and computer science. In 2013 and 2014, she worked as an education programs consultant within CDE’s Special Education Division, serving as a liaison to the advisory commission on special education (ACSE) and consulting on program and policy matters related to California’s Common Core State Standards and accessibility for students with disabilities.

2006 to 2013, and was chair of the advisory commission, from 2009 to 2013. “Kristin brings a wealth of professional and personal experience to this important position as a policy expert, a former special education student teacher, and a mother of a child with disabilities,” Torlakson said. “California’s students with disabilities and their families will find they have an advocate and an ally in Kristin.” Wright’s public service career took a turn with the birth of her middle daughter, Shelby, who has significant intellectual and physical dis-

abilities. Wright, who earned a bachelor’s in sociology from California State University, Sacramento, returned to the university to earn a special education teaching credential and a master’s in special education. She spent the 2008-09 school year as a special education student teacher in the San Juan Unified School District, the Sacramento City Unified School District, and the Twin Rivers Unified School District. From 2010 to 2013, she was a contract consultant providing special education research and other support to organizations that included the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Her work there included researching special education services provided by US charter schools. Wright replaces former Special Education Division Director Fred Balcom, who retired in December. Since December, the division director’s role has been filled on an interim basis by Chris Drouin. A Sacramento native, Wright and her husband, Charles, have three children: Ace, Shelby, and Violet.

Both teams spent months preparing for the Global Round, which tested their knowledge in crime and justice, history, science, literature, the arts, and social studies. The La Salle teams stepped up to the challenge and were awarded numerous team trophies and individual

medals. Most notably, La Salle “Team One” placed second overall, earning the World Scholars Cup and Bettina, Japhet, Noah, and Zach were named Champion Scholars.

ichard Chen, founder of iStringing in Temple City, is truly a master at what he does … quite literally. As a certified Master Racquet Technician with the United States Racquet Stringers Association (USRSA), Chen uses his 20-plus years of expertise to ensure that tennis players, both professional and amateur, hit the courts with the most effective racquets possible. For three years, iStringing has been one of the San Gabriel Valley’s premiere tennis destinations, especially known for its high-quality racquet services. Chen’s path to becoming a master racquet technician and opening his own business is the direct result of his passion for playing the game of tennis. Chen has been an avid tennis player his whole life and when he moved onto college, he desperately wanted to play at the Claremont Club, which is highly respected for its facilities, training programs, and involvement with the United States Tennis Association’s (USTA) professional circuit. Needless to say, membership is quite expensive, but Chen was not going to allow this factor to stop him from playing on those courts. One day a club pro approached him and said, ‘Oh, well why don’t you work in the pro shop? You get free membership and use of all the facilities.” Chen took this advice, ran with it, and never looked back. Initially, he worked at the club parttime, slowly building his expertise, but he eventually decided to take the USRSA certification test and go into business for himself. As a master racquet technician, Chen maintains the highest standards of professionalism and is always up-to-date with all the newest technological advances (USRSA certification requires annual testing/renewal and constantly evolves as new technology is developed). What separates iStringing from the competiAPY* tion is Chen’s dedication to consistency. Whether you are a professional or casual player, Chen strings every racket with the same commitment to precision and care. “Anyone can string a racquet, but it won’t be exactly the same every time. For me it’s all about consistency. I want to make

Once applicants are selected from the waiting list and are deemed eligible, they may transfer to a different Housing Authority or stay within Baldwin Park’s agency. Housing includes singlefamily homes, townhouse, and apartments in which families with vouchers generally pay between 30 to 40 percent of their monthly income for rent.

To apply, a pre-application may be completed online at www.baldwinpark. com or www.waitlistcheck. com/CA2295, using a valid email address. Only 2,000 applications will be chosen for the wait list. The Housing Choice Voucher Program is a federally-funded rental program that assists lowincome families, elderly, and disabled households by providing decent, safe, and sanitary units through rental vouchers. Due to limited funding, submitting a pre-application does not guarantee placement on the waiting list. Pre-applications will be selected using a random lottery system, in which those selected will be placed on the waiting list and be sent a confirmation email within one week of the list closing.

The first half of 2016 was very busy in terms of community preservation. Officers opened 544 cases - a 33 percent increase over the prior year. A contributing factor was overgrown vegetation, as residents laid off their gardeners given last year’s

water conservation efforts, followed by a wet winter. Proactive preservation efforts also yielded reductions in the amount of time it takes to close code enforcement cases - from 22 to 16 days. This success is attributed mainly to cooperative property owners.

Answers to Temple City Street Resurfacing Temple City's Pavement Management Program (PMP) is a document that forms the basis for how Temple City manages the maintenance, repair, and resurfacing of its streets. Below are answers to the most commonly asked questions about the PMP and street resurfacing. - Does the city know about the condition of Temple City’s streets? Yes. In 2013, a consulting firm with expertise in street maintenance prepared the city’s PMP. The PMP looked at the condition of all streets in Temple City at that time and made recommendations for which streets needed to be resurfaced, in addition to what type of resurfacing would be required. The PMP is for general planning purposes only and is not intended to rank or prioritize street resurfacing. The information from the PMP is continuously updated based on field observations by the city engineer. - How does the city de-

cide which streets get resurfaced first? The PMP is used as the basis for making decisions about street resurfacing, but is only one of the factors that are considered. Street resurfacing decisions are also driven by the city’s desire to leverage funding from other projects and to minimize construction impacts and disruptions to the community. When other projects are planned such as pedestrian or bicycle improvements or utility work, the city engineer uses the PMP as a guide to determine what street resurfacing work can be done in conjunction with the other ongoing work. - Based on the PMP, the city knows that most streets need resurfacing: why not do them all now? Street resurfacing is expensive. Depending upon the condition of the street, resurfacing can cost up to several dollars per square foot. The PMP estimated that it would cost about $24.1 million to resurface

all streets in the city at one time to an overall average condition of “excellent,” plus an additional $5.5 million in annual maintenance costs to maintain them at an “excellent” level on average. Maintaining streets in their existing overall average condition of “good” would require about $3 million annually. Currently, the city does not have this funding available. - How are streets resurfaced? How does the city decide which method to use? There are three general types of street resurfacing: slurry seal, cold mill and overlay, and reconstruction. The method used is selected by the city engineer based on the condition of the street. Slurry seal involves spreading a thin coating of asphalt on top of the existing pavement. Slurry prolongs the life of streets that are in “very good” or “good” condition with some cracks and a generally even surface, and is the least expensive form of resurfacing.

Fireworks Enforcement Recap

On July 4, the Sheriff’s Department deployed two two-man patrol units to enforce the city’s fireworks regulations. At the conclusion of their patrols, deputies confiscated 80 pounds of illegal fireworks and issued $6,000 in fines. In preparation for next

year’s dedicated enforcement, deputies have begun documenting “problem locations.” If you would like to report an area or location with known illegal fireworks use, please contact Sergeant Ron Miranda at (626) 292-3353. Added Sheriff patrols, as part of the city’s FY

2016-17 Adopted Budget, a new $20,000 appropriation provides added saturation and directed patrols by the Sheriff’s Department. Deployment of these patrols will occur over the next few months, pending further analysis of the city’s crime trends.

Bullying and the California Board of Education By Mary Mcnulty Bullying is not a new phenomenon; however the intensity in which it manifests itself is. Every neighborhood has been impacted and California students, parents, and school districts

are creating a united front in an attempt to stop the hate. Efforts began about a decade ago when two San Gabriel families felt firsthand the pain bullying can inflict. A suicide and a severe beating led the families

to hit the streets and initiate a grassroots campaign. Isela and Scott Bowles faced the pelleting of their daughter by rocks at a San Gabriel Middle School. In a 2010 interview they expressed disappointment in the action taken by the

school district. "I'm torn," Isela Bowles said. "A school district that's supposed to protect all the kids was not willing to protect our daughter." As catastrophic as the beating was for the entire community, bullying has

In addition to inflicting physical and psychological abuse, bullying also severely hinders a student’s success in the classroom. - Courtesy photo

led to an even more serious consequence of death. Project 51 was named after the football number of Jeremiah Lasater, a special needs student. In 2008, after being bullied Jeremiah went into the bathroom at Acton High School, pulled the trigger, and committed suicide. "For the last 30 years, the school districts have told us how to raise our kids and the parents have taken the back seat," Lasater said. "The parents are taking back control and the first step is to engage and know everything that's going on at their children's school." Unfortunately bullying is still occurring at a dramatic rate in our neighborhoods. In June 2015, a dispute over a restaurant bill led to a young girl being kicked, beaten, and burnt by cigarettes. The bullies were inhumane. One even stated that the beating should be slowed down so that it would last longer. With such a long and deadly history, the state knew it had to step in and establish guidelines for school districts to deal with bullying. “The long-term effects of bullying, cruelty, bias, and hate-motivated behavior can have a tremendous impact on student success - both for the victims and for the perpetrators,” wrote Jack O’Connell, state superintendent of public instruction. In an effort to educate the communities, the state

has created a number of resources that are directed at specific groups - parents, students, community service agencies, and educators. California has established a number of online resources to help anyone involved in bullying. Students, parents, teachers, and district administrators have dedicated pages to identify and report any instances. A template has been created to document the district’s policy on bullying and the procedure for handling such complaints. The policy states that “A student shall not intimidate, harass, or bully another student through words or actions. Such behavior includes: direct physical contact, such as hitting or shoving; verbal assaults, such as teasing or name-calling; and social isolation or manipulation.” Visit www.cde.ca.gov/ls/ ss/se/samplepolicy.asp, to view the policy. It is apparent the school districts alone have little impact on bullying. Only through working as a coalition with students and parents, can progress be made. The state has provided a number of online resources for the community in an effort to combat this epidemic, available at: www.cde.ca.gov/ls/ss/se/ bullyres.asp. Every student, parent, teacher, and administrator should familiarize themselves with the policies and procedures provided.

y friend is mad as hell and doesn't want to take it anymore, but there isn't much she can do about it. She has once again witnessed humanity’s unwillingness to be humane - she saw two tiny kittens dumped to their destiny. It will not be a happy destiny. Their little lives will be spent in fear and confusion in a large unfriendly, unfamiliar world. These innocents will, each moment, face the likelihood of injury and the certainty of hunger. They will ultimately starve to death, if not killed first by speeding cars or eaten by coyotes. My friend will, of course, continue to search and try to capture. The odds are slim.

Legal Notice Notice of Preparation of a Draft Environmental Impact Report for the Air Resources Board Southern California Consolidation Project and Notice of the Public Scoping Meeting As lead agency, the California Air Resources Board (ARB), with assistance from the Department of General Services – Real Estate Services Division (DGS), will prepare a Draft Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the proposed ARB Southern California Consolidation Project (proposed project). The existing ARB motor vehicle and emissions testing and research facility in El Monte, California, also referred to as the Haagen-Smit Laboratory, began operations in 1971 and no longer meets ARB’s programmatic requirements under current air quality and climate change mandates. Therefore, ARB is proposing to relocate and build a new stateof-the-art testing and research facility on land currently owned by the Regents of the University of California, in Riverside, California. The ownership of this land will be transferred to the State of California at essentially no cost. The proposed project would involve construction of

a new motor vehicle and emissions testing and research facility that would meet today’s work and safety standards and be adequately sized to meet mandated air quality and climate change requirements. ARB published the Notice of Preparation (NOP; 14 CCR 15082) for the proposed project. The purpose of the NOP is to inform responsible and trustee agencies and interested parties that ARB, with assistance from DGS, is preparing a Draft EIR for the proposed project. ARB, as lead agency, is seeking your views on the scope and content of the descriptions of the significant environmental issues and reasonable alternatives and mitigation measures to be explored in the Draft EIR. ARB, in coordination with DGS, will hold a public scoping meeting on Tuesday, August 16, 2016, at 6:00 p.m. at the Center for Environmental Research & Technology, University of California, Riverside, 1084 Columbia Avenue, Riverside, California 92507. The purpose of the scoping meeting is to present information about the proposed project, ARB’s process and timelines, and to solicit input, including written comments, on the scope and content of the Draft EIR. Interested parties, including public agencies, are encouraged to attend the meeting to learn more about the proposed project and the environmental review process, to express any concerns about the proposed project and to offer suggestions regarding the environmental impacts, including any mitigation measures and alternatives. The public scoping meeting information and NOP are posted at the following website: www. dudek.com/SoCalConsolidationCEQA. All scoping comments must be received in writing by September 1, 2016, by 5:00 p.m. (end of the 30-day public scoping period). Please send all comments via mail to: Patricia Kelly, California Department of General Services, RESD, PMDB, c/o Dudek, 605 Third Street, Encinitas, California 92024; OR via email to: SoCalConsolidation@ dudek.com, (subject line: “ARB Southern California Consolidation Project NOP Scoping Comments”). All comments on environmental issues received during the public comment period will be considered and addressed in the Draft EIR, which is anticipated to be available for public review in late 2016.

The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 304 WEST GRANDVIEW DRIVE, AZUSA, CA 91702 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be made without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the Note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said Note(s), advances if any, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, estimated fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligations secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of this Notice of Trustee’s Sale is estimated to be $342,543.73 (Estimated). However, prepayment premiums, accrued interest and advances will increase this figure prior to sale. Beneficiary’s bid at said sale may include all or part of said amount. In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept a cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the California Financial Code and authorized to do business in California, or other such funds as may be acceptable to the Trustee. In the event tender other than cash is accepted, the Trustee may withhold the issuance of the Trustee’s Deed Upon Sale until funds become available to the payee or endorsee as a matter of right. The property offered for sale excludes all funds held on account by the property receiver, if applicable. 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. 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.

Opinion: Is This the End of Blair Football? By Oliver Cardenas I am a student at Blair High School and I am currently a junior. I have attended Blair since I was a freshman. A fun fact, I have played football all three years and plan to finish playing at Blair. The bad thing is that our sports programs are not very successful and it pains me to say, but our football team is probably the most unsuccessful sports program at Blair. I truly believe that we could turn things around, but it seems that even our principal has given up hope as he has told our coach that he plans to cut the football program from Blair. He plans to cut the team to save money as he believes the school shouldn’t be funding the football program. Another reason he plans to cut it is that it also seems that we don’t have enough players. Personally, I don’t agree with this decision as we have a player who came from another country just to play football in U.S and I feel like it wouldn’t be fair to him. It also wouldn’t be fair to the people that have been shedding blood, sweat, and tears for an opportunity to turn things around at Blair.

It might be sad to say, but this could possibly be the last season for Blair football.

Although times are really bad Blair, football wasn’t always like this. Back then they were used to winning and have two league championships to show. If you were to ask about the Blair Vikings football program, you will probably be met with a laugh; and I don’t blame them. I would be laughing too if I were to play a team

The second response was the same result but added that if we didn’t win games then the morale

that has only won 19 games in 10 years. That means in 10 years we have lost 81 games, which is terrible, and nine of those wins came in 2006. Since then the most we have managed to win is three which was in 2014. After I asked four teammates all the same question “What is your opinion on the principle saying he will

at Blair is going to stay the way it has the last five years. The third said he didn’t mind as the actual sport he likes is soccer so it didn’t seem to bug him. In a way I saved the best for last and I asked my friend who came all the way from Kuwait to play football who said he would move to another school since he came to the U.S to play as he wants to get a

football scholarship. Sadly to say, this may be the last season for Blair football after starting off very successful in the 1960s and a respectable team until the 2000s. Since this could be the last season, I have no doubt in my mind that everyone will pour every ounce of energy every game and honestly I would be happy with that.

sports Jackie Robinson Memorial Highway Clears State Assembly

BeaconMediaNews.com

The California State Assembly recently passed Assemblyman Mike Gatto’s (D - Los Angeles) resolution to name a stretch of Interstate 210 after Brooklyn Dodgers hall of famer and second baseman Jackie Robinson, who was raised in Pasadena, by a 76-0 vote. The measure, joint au-

thored by Assemblyman Chris Holden (D - Pasadena), would create the "Jackie Robinson Memorial Highway,” on Interstate 210, between State Route 2 and Orange Grove Boulevard, a commonly used route to Dodger Stadium for fans coming from the eastern Los Angeles Coun-

ty.

“Jackie Robinson is not only an inspiring figure to us for his accomplishments in athletics, but also as a civil-rights-era trailblazer who advocated for social change,” said Assemblyman Gatto. “His contributions to baseball and society have made an ever-

lasting impression on our nation.” Jackie Robinson is best known for breaking the color barrier in baseball when he debuted with the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947 and for having his number, “42” retired by all of Major League Baseball. But before becoming a big-leagu-

august 4, 2016 - august 10, 2016 | 27

er, Robinson excelled in basketball, football, baseball, and track at John Muir High School and Pasadena City College. He then transferred to the University of California, Los Angeles in 1939, where he became the first Bruin to letter in four sports: baseball, basketball, football, and track.

“It’s only fitting to honor Jackie Robinson by naming this stretch of highway near the home he grew up and lived in,” said Gatto. “The sacrifices and differences he made will always be remembered.” ACR 197 will now head to the California State Senate.
