EMPLOYEES LOCKED IN FREEZER DURING ARCADIA ROBBERY

By Dean LeeA man walked into the restaurant with a semi-automatic handgun late Sunday night and demanded cash from the manager before locking two employees in the freezer and fleeing the scene with a backpack full of money.

As of Monday, Arcadia police officers were still looking for the suspect described as a 20 year old Black male about 5 feet 10 inches tall with a slim build. Reports suggest the suspect was wearing dark clothing, including a hooded jacket and a facemask.

According to local news reports, Arcadia police officers responded to an armed robbery call at 10:31 p.m. after employees from Coco’s Restaurant, 1150 W. Colorado Boulevard, dialed 911 saying they had been robbed.

During the robbery the suspect demanded the restaurant manager fill a backpack with cash before locking two employees in a freezer. The suspect entered through a back door. No customers were in the building at the time. A third employee was unaware of the robbery and no one was hurt.

Anyone with information can call Arcadia Police at (626) 574-5123 or anonymously through “Crime Stoppers” at (800) 222-8477.

COMMANDER DAVE LOERA CHOSEN AS SIERRA MADRE’S 2014 CITIZEN OF THE YEARThe Sierra Madre Chamber of Commerce announced on Thursday the winner of the 2014 Citizen of the Year. By an overwhelming number of ballots cast, Dave Loera, Commander of VFW 3208 was selected.

The announcement came as a complete surprise to Loera who was lured to the Veterans Wall in Memorial Park by VFW colleague Duncan MacGillivray. Known as an extremely punctual man, Loera was there ten minutes early and wasn’t the least bit surprised to see his daughter-in-law Shawna and grandson, 5 year old Lancelot in the park. Nor did he notice members of the Chamber of Commerce Board slowly assembling. In fact, he struck up a regular ‘how are you doing’ conversation with one member. But soon, when he saw his son and daughter and other family members, he was a bit puzzled. When told by Chamber President Ed Chin that he had been nominated and selected as the Citizen of the Year, he was speechless. The site of the presentation was chosen because it would not be difficult to get Dave to the Veteran’s Wall in a moment’s notice. He has worked

and still works diligently to get Sierra Madre residents to submit names and photos to be placed on the wall.

The COTY award is granted to an outstanding Sierra Madrean who is the personification of the town’s spirit of volunteerism during the year, and Dave’s credentials are extensive. In addition to being Commander of VFW Post 3208, he currently serves on the Committee for Congresswoman Judy Chu in the collaboration between the Veteran’s Administration Health Care System and Pasadena City College to establish a Veteran’s Health Center in the San Gabriel Valley. He also serves on Assemblymember Chris Holden’s Veteran’s Advisory Committee. In Sierra Madre it is easier to articulate what Dave has not done than to list the many, many contributions he has made. He was a Reserve Police Officer for the City for 10 years; He has coached T-ball, Little League, Pony Colt Baseball and AYSO soccer. He is currently President of the St. Rita Men’s Club and is Past President of the Sierra Madre Kiwanis Club. He has been instrumental in getting the VFW to support the 4th of July Parade, raise funds for the maintenance of Dapper Field and with replacing the bleachers at Heasley Field. He has served on Sierra Madre’s Utility User’s Tax oversight committee and much more.

The COTY dinner honoring Dave on Saturday, January 31, 2015 in The Sierra Madre Room, 611 E. Sierra Madre Blvd., Sierra Madre, Ca. Reception from 6:00 Dinner at 7:00. Tickets are $30 per person/Tables of 10 $275.00.For more information, please contact the Chamber of Commerce at 626-355-5111. MVNews

Sierra Madre Police BlotterDuring the week of Sunday, December 28th, to Sunday, January 4th, the Sierra Madre Police Department responded to approximately 338 calls for service.

Monday, December 29th At 6:39 am, Sierra Madre police responded to the Sierra Madre City Yard regarding a burglary investigation. Upon arrival, Officers were informed that the location was locked and secured on December 24th, and upon returning that morning, one of the garage door locks was missing. After a walk through was performed, it was determined nothing was missing from the garage. As Officers investigated the area further, they were contacted by another city employee who informed them two other garages had the locks cut off. Further investigation determined scrap metal and copper wiring had been stolen from the facility. The estimated value exceeded $1,000 in property loss. This case has been forwarded to the Detectives Bureau. At 10:38 am, Sierra Madre police responded to the 300 block of North Lima St. to meet a citizen requesting assistance. Upon arrival, the subject informed Officers that beginning back in July, an unknown suspect gained access to her email account and shortly began to change the password to several emails, and social media accounts. The unknown suspect then began deleting her personal social media account. The subject took her computer in to be re-formatted, but the unauthorized access to her accounts continued. On December 22nd, the unknown suspect gained access to her cellphone account and deactivated her service. The subject received several emails and messages from the unknown suspect stating they would wipe her computer clean of all information in January. No demands have been made by the unknown suspect. This case has been forwarded to the Detectives Bureau.

Friday, January 2nd At 7:47 am, Sierra Madre police responded to the 300 block of North Cannon Dr. regarding a vehicle burglary. Officers were informed by the victim that the night prior, he had locked and secured his vehicle at around 9 pm, and the following morning he came out to his vehicle and noticed his driver’s side window had been smashed. The victim informed Officers a briefcase containing various tax paper work, check books, and medication was missing from the vehicle. This case has been forwarded to the Detectives Bureau.

Saturday, January 3rd At 11:45 am, Sierra Madre police responded to the 400 block of West Sierra Madre Blvd. regarding a vehicle burglary. The victim informed Officers that, on December 26th, she came out to her vehicle and noticed several items were missing, and her glove box was left open. Because the victim was on her way out of town, she was unable to report the incident until she returned to town. The victim informed Officers she was unsure if she locked and secured her vehicle. A cell phone car charger, cell phone charger, a cell phone and a duffle bag containing various clothing items were taken from her vehicle. This case has been forwarded to the Detectives Bureau.

Sunday, January 4th At 10:15 am, Sierra Madre police responded to the 200 block of Olivera Lane regarding an attempted residential burglary. Upon arrival, Officers were informed by the victim that at around 9 am, she discovered the guest bedroom window open with the window screen pushed in. Further investigation revealed three of the resident’s gates were unlatched. Officers cleared the house and the victim stated there was no loss of property. The victim is believed to have been home when the incident occurred. This case has been forwarded to the Detectives Bureau.

“Three phrases that sum up Christmas are: Peace on Earth, Good Will to Men,and Batteries Not Included.” Anonymous

Why is it that putting up Christmas decorations, even though they’re the same ones you’ve had for a million years, is so much more fun that taking them down. Also, why is it that the Christmas decorations that seem so few and so light as you take them out of the basement and up the stairs have doubled (like wire hangers) in size and tripled in weight and you can’t remember when on earth you carried all those up, said the Grinch who seems to unearth a bunch more of them every time she turns around. Did you get downtown to look at our Mayor’s Trophy prize winning, “I Think I Can!” float while it was on display in Kersting Court? It looked so great under construction and then as it went by on Channel 5’s telecast. But when we saw it up close and personal…just plain gorgeous. It was such a nice day to be outside and then seeing all the roses, the giraffes, the bear and the sock monkey. Delightful! Saw Rose Princesses Alexi Zate, Britney Stone and Kristine Kuhn looking very cute in their tiaras and jeans selling flowers out by the float to get a head start on next year’s float. Our princesses are not only lovely, but they are nice! We’re a week into the New Year and I’m actually keeping the resolution I made. OK, it’s only a week, but how are you doing with yours? What’s at the top of most people’s resolution list? Lose weight. Yep, year after year, we all want to lose weight. What else do we want to change about ourselves? More exercise? Less TV? More reading? Tackle the World’s Great Books? Meditate? There are so many things we can do to make ourselves crazy trying to remake ourselves.

Exercise. Sigh… I don’t do enough of it and I know it. You probably don’t either. My best walking buddy and I do about half an hour most days, but I know that’s not enough. He would be totally thrilled if I’d bump the walk time up to more, but I’m a terrific excuse maker…It’s cold! It’s hot! But those are really lame and we’d both be better off with just a little more. For years we’ve talked about taking a walk in the evening but there’s something about it getting to be the end of the day when all one really wants to do is get into the jammies and not do anything more difficult than walking into the kitchen for… wait for it… not ice cream…not cookies…no, we want another glass of Trader Joe’s sparkling water. We get to the gym about once a week, which also isn’t enough. The world of serious exercise folks tell us that we need just as much resistance training as we do cardio. Weight training makes for stronger bones and all sorts of good stuff. But you can’t go to the gym till you do something with the bed-head

hair, put some concealer on the bags under the eyes and, for pity’s sake, just a little blush so one doesn’t look dead. The walk – just put on the sweats, the jacket and the shoes and head out the door. This is getting way too close to home! I’m actually going to have to act on this as I’ve written it down. OK, the world is my witness, I’m going to start walking further every time we go out the door. Even if it’s freezing? Yep, even then. Resolved! And so far, so good.Here’s another resolution I made after reading Susan Henderson’s editorial in last week’s paper. If you missed it, here are a few of her thoughts that really struck me: If we want to make society better, we must start with ourselves. How about not making generalizations that disparage people who are different. Consider making a concentrated effort to see people as individuals instead of lumping them in with whatever group is making bad news currently. If we start with ourselves, we can diminish the amount of hatred that permeates the air. Here is her resolution, with which I wholeheartedly agree: Let’s all do better! Let’s start with ourselves, one person at a time. Let’s see if we can make love and respect spread that way. Let’s make 2015 the year when we passionately, as individuals work on real change. “Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me.” Jill Jackson Miller and Sy Miller - 1955. Happy New Year, dear Walking Sierra Madre friends. Hope to see you out and about in 2015. Check out my book page on Amazon.com: Deanne Davis@Amazon.com

Joseph “Joe” Jack Ramsey passed away Dec. 29th, 2014 at Arcadia Methodist Hospital. Joe Ramsey, son of Jack S. Ramsey and Helen L. Ramsey, was a father, a husband, and a friend, loved and respected by many. He was also a musician, a record producer, and a small business owner.

Joe was born at City of Angels Medical Center in Los Angeles. He spent his first three years living in Altadena, then moved to Arcadia, where he attended Dana Middle School, Arcadia High School and Pasadena City College. In the mid-1970s, Joe moved to Sierra Madre where he (mostly) lived until he moved to Monrovia in 2011. Joe’s early jobs were at Licorice Pizza and the Wherehouse, record stores where he could indulge himself with his first great love, music. These jobs were a natural progression following his entry into performing, appearing with bands as early as middle school. Joe went on to perform with numerous bands, including HiFi, Chance, Foul Play, The Item, The Cyclones and many others. His greatest musical success came with The Prime Movers from 1983 to 1988, which was signed to Island Records and toured the UK, opening for Big Country, as well as domestically, and Dread Zeppelin, with whom he performed more than 900 gigs during several world tours. Dread Zeppelin’s first album, Un-Led-Ed, sold a million copies, and the band appeared on television and portrayed themselves in the motion picture National Lampoon’s Last Resort. Ramsey performed under the stage name Severs Ramsey with The Prime Movers and Jah Paul Joh in Dread Zeppelin.

In his later years, Joe’s life went full circle, as he went back into the work force selling vinyl records during its recent resurgence in popularity, first at Berdan Records in Monrovia and then partnering with Sean Sprinkel to open Resistor Records, also in Monrovia. But he hadn’t given up performing, organizing a concert at Matt Denny’s in Arcadia that featured many of his old bandmates from both his school days and throughout his career.

In the late 70s, Joe partnered with several friends to open Marquee West, a rock and roll club in Arcadia. In 1983, he opened his own independent record label, Birdcage Records, home to such acts as not only his own Prime Movers and Dread Zeppelin, but artists such as Stan Ridgway, Ron Asheton, and Pietra Wexstun, In Vivo, The Mystery Band and others.

In 2002, Joe met and began dating Allison Koester-Martinez. The two were married, and had two daughters, Mika, 6 and Kaiya Jo, 4. And Joe loved being their daddy…according to Allison: “Joe’s sole passion in life was creating music. He lived and breathed it. After we had our babies, his focus shifted and he only had eyes for them. He still had that musical fire burning in him, but all he wanted was

to make sure these little girls were happy, secure, and loved like crazy.”

Joe is survived by his wife, Allison, his two daughters, Mika and Kaiya Jo, and a sister, Elizabeth Brierty. Members of the family gathered on Jan. 2nd to say goodbye prior to Joe’s cremation at Forest Lawn in Glendale. Plans are in the works for a memorial gathering/concert possibly in February or early March with several bands that Joe had discussed bringing together for a concert. An announcement will be made when the details are worked out, you will be able to find the information on line at the website referenced below.

Joe’s passing was the result of a decade long battle with medical problems consisting of a heart attack, cancer, and a recent stroke. Some of Joe’s legion of friends and fans have created a website to help the family with the bills incurred by these issues, and if you’d like to donate you can do so by visiting www.JoeRamseyFamilyFund.com.

From the website: This fundraiser is initiated and supported by the many people who have known and loved Joe Ramsey and his family over the years. Donations to this fund will go to help defray medical costs as well as funeral expenses, costs of living for Allison and the children, and future needs of the little ones. Submitted by Bill Coburn

Mountain View News Saturday, January 10, 20154

By Dean Lee About a dozen people spoke their minds Monday night during a lengthy special city council meeting centered on the embezzlement of $6.4 million by a former city employee— some called for City Manager Michael Beck to be fired, while others said they will never approve, or give money to, any future project that required public funds. This was the first time the council and staff addressed the issue. Beck and other city staff gave presentations focused on flaws in the city’s accounting practices while councilmember expressed their concerns. “We can implement all the procedures in the world, and I do think we need to change some of our procedures… but the fundamental lack of confidence that we have is… where is the focus on accountability and consequences for not following existing procedures, I haven’t heard reference to that. I think that the real concern that I’m hearing… is a fear that it may have been happening in other departments and accounts as well,” Councilmember Terry Tornek said. “I think the public wants to hear is what level of confidence do we have that this isn’t epidemic within the system… we’ve lost the confidence, we need to rebuild the public’s confidence in our ability to provide service and handle their money.” Councilwoman Margaret McAustin called the city’s accounting system “sloppy.”Before members of the public spoke Council Member Victor Gordo said the city had an obligation to try and recoup some of the money. “This is a tremendous breach

of the public’s trust… I think it’s important that we understand and the circumstances, and from those circumstances I think it’s important that we understand the recovery of those dollars, I think that we ought to be aggressive in recovering those dollars… the city of Pasadena is a victim in this case, and the city of Pasadena has the right as a victim to communicate with the district attorney’s office and insure that the individuals responsible for this are not let off the hook,” he said. Member of the public called for more oversight in the City Manager’s office something McAustin also mentioned. Others called for oversight of other organizations partnered with the city. “I hope when you are talking about all these reforms, all these auditors and all this financial analysis that’s going to go on in the future… I hope it includes all the Operating Companies as well, internally and the external relationships to the city,” said longtime resident Nina Chomsky, Another resident, Brian Weiss, called out Beck to take responsibility. “As long as Mr. Beck sits in that seat, and remains as the city ‘mismanager’ I will personally, and I will encourage my fellow citizens, to oppose any kind of vote that requires taxpayer approval for additional funding in this city, period.” Councilmember Steve Madison called for the creation of an audit oversight board. He also said a third of the total amount of money was taken in the last three years. A city audit completed in November documented that Danny Wooten, a Management

Analyst IV in the Engineering Division of the Public Works Department, allegedly provided as many as 296 potentially fraudulent invoices to the city on behalf of four vendors he was affiliated with for check payments in excess of $6.4 million. The money came from the Underground Utilities Fund that covers the cost of moving overhead power and communications lines underground. Revenues to the Fund come from the underground surtax paid by electric customers. He was arrested Dec. 30. If convicted, Wooten faces up to 28 years in state prison according to the district attorney’s office.

NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory announced Monday that the new project scientist for Mars Rover Curiosity is Ashwin Vasavada, a deputy project scientist for NASA’s Mars Science Laboratory Project since 2004 -- five years before the name Curiosity was chosen for the project’s rover. The project scientist’s role is to coordinate efforts of an international team of nearly 500 scientists operating the rover’s 10 science instruments, planning rover investigations and assessing data from Curiosity. The project scientist also works closely with the JPL-based project manager and rover engineering team to maximize the science while using the rover efficiently and safely. Vasavada succeeds John Grotzinger of the California Institute of Technology, who recently became chair of Caltech’s Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences and remains a member of Curiosity’s science team. Vasavada has helped shepherd the project through development of the spacecraft, selection and integration of the science instruments, selection

of the landing site in Mars’ Gale Crater, activities of Curiosity since its August 2012 landing, and publication of many research findings. “John Grotzinger put his heart and soul into Curiosity for seven years, leaving a legacy of success and scientific achievement,” Vasavada said. “Now I look forward to continuing our expedition to Mars’ ancient past, with a healthy rover and a dedicated and passionate international team. And yes, this is all just incredibly cool.” Researchers are currently using Curiosity to investigate the geological layers at the base of a mountain inside Gale Crater.

Pasadena Area Community College District Board of Trustees member, Linda Wah and Lynell Wiggins, a counselor at Pasadena City College, have been appointed to serve on a California Community Colleges task force charged with developing policies to prepare more students for existing high value jobs and promote job creation with workforce training. Wah, who represents Area 5 of the district, and Wiggins were two of 24 individuals selected by California Community Colleges Chancellor Brice Harris to serve on his Task Force on Workforce, Job Creation, and a Strong Economy. The group will also represent the California Community Colleges, business community, labor groups, public agencies involved in workforce training, K-12 policy, and community-based organizations. Harris said. “The members have an impressive and unique blend of qualifications that will give the task force an informed understanding of the needs, experiences, and capabilities of the business community, academia, and labor organizations.” Two more individuals remain

to be appointed to the task force, which was commissioned in November by the California Community Colleges Board of Governors. The task force will conduct its work in three separate phases. The first phase, which began in December, involves holding meetings with community college practitioners. The second phase will start in February 2015 and involves town hall meetings in regions across the state with elected officials and leaders from business, economic development agencies, K-12, labor, and other community organizations to vet and build on ideas and practices that bring stronger alignment between community colleges and key industry sectors. The final phase involves meetings of the full task force itself. Members will deliberate over information and issues identified at the regional meetings and develop a set of recommendations by the end of summer 2015, which will be proposed for adoption by the Board of Governors. These deliberations will be held at the California Chamber of Commerce office in Sacramento.

Trustee Counselor Appointed To Chancellor’s Task Force

Councilembers, Public, Speak Out Over Scandal

Former Chiefs Welcome New Fire Chief Washington

By Dean Lee On his last day, Dec. 29, with the Pasadena Fire Department, Retiring Fire Chief Calvin Wells passed on vital information to new Fire Chief Bertral Washington. Former city Fire Chief Dennis Downs also welcomed Washington into the department. The two were also on hand to help with the Rose Parade preparation. “We chatted about things that were pertinent to Pasadena so that there’s no down time,” Wells said. “So there is a smooth transition. We shadowed each other for two weeks; I introduced him to some of the key stakeholders throughout the greater Pasadena community, people that he is going to need to be in close contact with.” Downs continued the thought saying, “Your precious assets are your community and your staff, and trying to make sure balance the staff needs with the community needs… to really be able to engage with the community, and care about the community.”

Washington comes to Pasadena from Clark County Nevada, a much larger department Wells said. “I do have experience, not just being fire chief but fire chief in a jurisdiction [including Los Vegas] where there are a lot of special events, there are a lot of things going on,” Washington said. Washington said he planned to follow the experience Downs and Wells have brought to the department. Between the two of them they have over 60 years of fire service. Washington said he adds another 20 years to that. “The fire service always changes, we do so many more things than fighting fires,” he said. “I’m just excited to see what that’s going to bring.” Pasadena Fire Spokesperson, Lisa Derderian said it was a rare occurrence to have two fire chiefs on duty at the same time. “It really is a testament to the city of Pasadena to allow me to come in while the outgoing fire chief is still in place,” Washington said. “That gives us a tremendous opportunity and gives me a great start.”

L.A. County Mayor Michael Antonovich sharply criticized the $240 million dollar cost to implement AB60, authored by Democratic Assemblyman Luis Alejo of Watsonville and signed by Governor Brown, to issue 1.4 million California driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants over the next three years. “Once again, the state has shortchanged the needs of foster children, emancipated foster youth, the mentally ill, and public safety by reallocating funding to a program that provides illegals with driver’s licenses,” said Mayor Antonovich. “The $240 million dollars should be used to enhance programs that serve the needs of the underserved and underprivileged which have been neglected for years by the state.” Implementation of this program will require hiring an additional 900 Department of Motor Vehicle employees. The funding for those employees will not come from the State General Fund; rather AB 60 assumes the cost will be covered by the license applications themselves at $32 a license. However, the DMV is already considering raising the fee for all new drivers’ license from $32 to as $100 to cover the implementation cost of AB 60. “AB 60 is an irresponsible law which provides another incentive to those who break federal immigration laws.” said Mayor Antonovich. “In Los Angeles County alone, children of illegal immigrants born here are receiving over $640 million a year for welfare and food stamps. In addition the cost to provide medical services exceeds $500 million. These costs do not even include those illegal immigrants incarcerated in County jails”. Extremely long waits for scheduled appointments and walk-in appointments have been reported at most DMV offices. Residents living near DMV offices have reported dangerous conditions associated with parking and long lines on residential streets. The impacts of these lines and crowds have caused exasperation from business leaders as well as residents.

Pasadena, CA - Dining, dancing, inspiring entertainment and hard-to-resist auction treasures await guests attending The Frostig Center’s benefit Saturday, February 21 at the Altadena Town & Country Club. Proceeds from the event, “Celebrating the Students of Frostig - Courageous Hearts, Exceptional Potential,” will support the school’s Arts Program and FrostigBeyond, giving young adults the transition support they need for success after high school. Whit Johnson, co-anchor of NBC Southern California’s “Today in LA” will serve as Master of Ceremonies for the evening. Frostig’s music and drama students will perform and long-term Frostig Center board members will be honored for their dedication. The event will also feature an auction of getaways to Napa Valley, Lake Arrowhead and New Mexico, a Florida resort package, artwork, culinary experiences, jewelry and much more. Arts education and transition services play a critical role in teaching students who learn differently the life skills necessary to find success, skills such as self-expression and self-advocacy, awareness of personal strengths and weaknesses, and perseverance. “Every day, starting right at first grade, Frostig School helps students with learning differences develop these crucial qualities so they can reach their full potential,” said Dean Conklin, Frostig’s executive director. “Sometimes success achieving these life skills doesn’t happen during math class. Sometimes language arts doesn’t hold the key either. “For many Frostig students, music, art and drama have unlocked the door to confidence, creativity, and a previously unknown strength,” Conklin said. “Kids who have a hard time talking to others or who find typical academics frustrating suddenly find joy and accomplishment acting and singing in the school play or selling their creations at our annual Evening with the Fine Arts.” The benefit begins at 6 p.m. Saturday, February 21 at the Altadena Town & Country Club, 2290 Country Club Drive in Altadena. Tickets are $150

per person and can be purchased by calling The Frostig Center at 626-791-1255. Funds raised will go to upgrading the lighting and sound equipment, curtains and stage in the school’s performing arts venue. Proceeds with also help provide staff and a dedicated WorkSpace to support Frostig graduates in their post-high school goals. This assistance might include help with college homework, job development or independent living skills. Other students may need community based support at the beginning of a new endeavor, such as navigating a new campus, learning the public transportation system, banking or shopping. There is no mistaking the crucial importance of these kinds of transition support services for students with learning differences. According to a study published by the American Academy of Pediatrics, more than half of all young adults on the autism spectrum are not in school or employed during the two years after high school. Both Frostig’s Arts and Transition programs

aim to teach students with learning differences the tools needed to find their success. And some of those tools just can’t be found in the traditional classroom. A resource for the San Gabriel and Greater Los Angeles communities, The Frostig Center was founded in 1951 by Dr. Marianne Frostig, a pioneer in the study, diagnosis and treatment of learning differences. Its mission is to improve the lives of children with learning differences through an integrated program of research, professional development and community outreach, and the Frostig School. The school offers a full range of academic and support services for children with learning differences (such as dyslexia, dyscalculia, dysgraphia and auditory processing disorders), high-functioning autism and ADHD.

FOOTHILL MWD NOW OFFERING REBATES FOR LARGE RAINWATER TANKS Foothill Municipal Water District (Foothill MWD or District) is pleased to announce the availability of rebates for cisterns. Cisterns are large rainwater harvesting tanks typically used to supplement the water supply for landscape irrigation. They are substantially larger than rain barrels and constructed of durable material, such as reinforced plastic, polyethylene or metal. Foothill MWD collaborated with Hey!Tanks LA and TreePeople to develop the cistern rebate program. The offering of a cistern rebate complements an already existing rain barrel rebate program. The popularity of rain barrel rebates prompted the District to investigate an expansion of rainwater harvesting opportunities. While the rain barrel rebate program provides financial assistance for smaller rain catchment systems, the cistern rebate program will support residents looking to expand their rainwater harvesting capabilities. Rebates will start at $0.15 per gallon for cisterns that are a minimum of 300 gallons up to a maximum of $2,000 per customer. Click here for the rebate application.“Rainwater is a valuable resource that is currently wasted to the ocean when it runs off into the stormwater system,” said Foothill MWD Board President Richard Atwater. Atwater points to the sediment accumulation behind Devil’s Gate Dam as an example of impeding stormwater capture. “Approximately 1.3 million cubic yards of sediment have accumulated behind Devil’s Gate Dam since the Station Fire. This severely reduces the capacity for stormwater capture and recharge into the groundwater basin and ultimately impacts local water supplies. By capturing rainwater in large cisterns, we can at least use the water for our landscapes and reduce demands on imported water.” “This is an exciting program to roll out into the New Year,” stated General Manager Nina Jazmadarian. “Last year the Governor declared a statewide drought emergency in January. As California continues its annual wet season, the cisterns program will support our residents in capturing stormwater to combat the ongoing drought. With the large rainwater tanks, more water can be captured and used for an extended period of time.” Residents are encouraged to read all program requirements and recommendations prior to applying. Please submit completed applications to 4536 Hampton Road, La Cañada Flintridge, CA 91011. If you have any questions, please call 818-790-4036 or email ddrugan@fmwd.com. Rebates will be on a first-come, first-served basis until funds are depleted. Foothill Municipal Water District provides imported water to Crescenta Valley Water District, La Cañada Irrigation District, Mesa Crest Water Company, Valley Water Company, Lincoln Avenue Water Company, Las Flores Water Company and Rubio Cañon Land & Water Association. Kinneloa Irrigation District, another retail agency, takes no water from Foothill.

THE FROSTIG CENTER TO HOST DINNER AND AUCTION TO RAISE MONEY FOR CHILDREN WITH LEARNING DIFFERENCES

ASSEMBLY MAJORITY LEADER HOLDEN’S STATEMENT ON GOVERNOR’S 2015-16 PROPOSED BUDGETPASADENA - “I echo the Governor Brown’s sentiment that ‘self-discipline and real prudence’ are essential to keep our budget balanced and maintain the progress California has seen in the past few years. I thank the Governor for his leadership on the Rainy Day Fund and for following through on his promises to voters by saving $2.4 billion for future economic downturns. This budget includes big gains for public education. I am very pleased to see $7.8 billion in new funding for K-12 education and California’s community colleges. Although I had hoped the Governor would be able to give the University of California a larger budget increase, $120 million in additional funding is significant. The Cal State University system will get a similar amount. I remain committed to making college more affordable. As a former mayor and city councilmember I am pleased to see Governor Brown paying back $533 million to local governments. This money will have a direct benefit to all Californians by improving local services and ensuring local governments can meet their obligations. And, after years of neglect I am glad that Governor Brown is now willing to have a conversation about reinvesting in our state’s infrastructure. I stand ready, willing and able to have that conversation with the Governor and my Legislative colleagues and draft a workable infrastructure plan to rebuild California’s infrastructure, create jobs and put California’s economy on track for sustained growth. The Governor’s proposed budget puts California on solid ground to continue to build up reserves while investing in a growing economy. I look forward to working with the Governor and the Assembly to produce a workable budget.”

ALTADENA, CA. (January 09, 2015) – What if you could help pull a family in a developing country out of extreme poverty by simply shifting your daily cup of coffee or tea to another brand? Turns out, you can. That’s what fair trade is all about – and a dedicated group of Altadena residents wants to make sure there’s plenty of access to fair trade products in town. Their committee—Fair Trade Altadena—is taking steps to declare Altadena a Fair Trade Town. It’s a designation that helps draw attention to local businesses and organizations that offer fair trade products, while raising awareness about the power consumers wield when they choose to buy fair trade. Fair trade ensures consumers that the products they purchase were grown, harvested, crafted and traded in ways that improve lives and protect the environment. “With fair trade there is an understanding that your purchases have more influence than your political vote,” said Lori Webster, co-chair of the committee and Altadena resident. “We all agree that with fair trade you know you’re supporting fair prices, better working conditions, environmental stewardship and brighter futures for the people who make the high-quality products we buy every day.” Fair Trade Altadena (FTA) is a coalition of citizens, community groups and ethical businesses working to increase the availability and use of fair trade products throughout Altadena.

To earn a designation as a Fair Trade Town, the committee has already identified eight retailers that sell Fair Trade products and eight organizations that serve fair trade items at their meetings or offices. In addition, the committee will ask the Town Council to pass a resolution declaring Altadena’s dedication to fair trade practices. Several local retailers in Altadena already carry fair trade products, for example:- Oh Happy Days – Coffee and Chocolate- Hoopla! –Bags and tea- Wishing Well Gift Store – Bags and coin purses- Ralph’s – Ice cream, coffee and tea- Rite Aid – Ice cream and tea- Altadena Community Church – Coffee, tea and chocolate Visit the Fair Trade Altadena website to see a map of these locations. Also, visit Hoopla! at 2591 Fair Oaks

Ave. to sign a petition to make Altadena a Fair Trade Town, or to learn how to be involved with the campaign.

About Fair Trade Altadena Fair Trade Altadena is part of a global movement to normalize fair trade as an institutional practice and consumer preference across 24 countries and on six continents. More than 1,400 communities and thousands of schools and congregations on six continents have joined together to alleviate poverty through fair trade. In fact, our sister city, Pasadena became a Fair Trade Town in 2013.

FAIR TRADE TOWN STATUS IN ALTADENA IS ALMOST COMPLETE

When it comes to ‘Lord of the Rings’ films, there are three important factors they always do well: intelligent plot, complex characters, and very well shot action sequences. However, ‘Battle of the Five Armies’ focuses on latter of the three but does not suffer because of it. Bilbo (Martin Freeman) and the band of dwarves have conquered Smaug (Benedict Cumberbatch) and retaken the mountain. Now they must defend it from the elves, humans, and other dark forces that seek to take over Middle Earth. Like ‘Return of the King’, ‘Battle of the Five Armies’ is basically just one long battle. Most of the main character development and storyline have been explained and this is the massive payoff for the first two Hobbit movies. It is visually stunning, very well acted, and directed as well as any other Peter Jackson ‘Lord of the Rings’ films.

OLD SCHOOL FIST IMPRESSION AND A LOBSTER ROLL TO DIE FORThis past week I finally made it to Old School Eatery, though my final review will have to wait till next week , because my findings were inconclusive because of only sampling two dishes. Spoiler alert: I did enjoy the dish that I had.

Years ago my dad Elmer Dills, would take us all the way up to Oxnard to a little restaurant in the harbor for what he thought were the best Lobster Rolls Sandwiches this side of the Atlantic, a few years back I was in Boston for a wedding and made way to feniel hall, an inside marketplace with shops and restaurants, more like counters I should say, that is where I found a lobster roll sandwich which I thought was the end all. Teamed up with a Boston Beer (not Sam Adams) it was truly a sandwich from heaven.

Circa 2015 , I have driven past by Twohey’s Restaurant on Huntington Dr. if not 1000 times, darn close to it. You know the place the cute sign with the guy with the clothespin on his nose, and the banners of 4th of July specials or Baby Back s now until then all you can eat specials. Sharing a parking lot with In n’ out must be a competitive nightmare or… well I digress. Just never felt like going in, maybe I had a preconceived thought of Marge pouring cold coffee or a patty melt that had seen better days, I know they are locally famous for serving breakfast all day and all night, but I must admit a bowl of fruit for breakfast and I am golden.

Ah but one afternoon I stopped in and as I always try to do if I am at Hustons, Ruth Chris or now Twohey’s it is the bar or counter seating for me, I have to be in the middle of the action. Twohey’s has over 300 items on the menu, a red flag for me!! I think fifty is too many. Upon perusing the menu, hidden on the second column of the sandwich selection was a Lobster roll $12.95, nothing about world famous or house specialty, no fanfare just a brief description of Maine lobster, diced and tossed with celery and house mayo. Could it be? Could something such as this bring back those memories of driving up to Oxnard with my dad, or my trip to Boston. I say Yes! This sandwich if not right on the mark was so close that I have to my best Paul Revere and let all my neighbors know about this sandwich, served with freshly cut potato chips is a winner. Found out that GM Charlie Cristos and family hail from beantown and fact owned Jimmy’s Harbor restaurant and still import the hot dog bun from Boston. Now that is authentic. I was sold the first time having the Twohey’s Lobster Rolls sandwich, but thought I’d take advantage of editor Susan’s generous expense account and go twice, I changed things up a little and had the carrot salad, yes thumbs up. What else can I discover here at Twohey’s? Honcho Jim Cristos tells me that besides all the onion rings being made every morning they make a pretty mean chili. I will return!

THE JOY OF YOGA

HEALTHY LIFESTYLESTHERE’S NO TIME!

Each new year I ask myself, how can I improve my life? What areas have been neglected? What would I enjoy doing this

year? I always go back to my yoga practice. It’s pure sustenance and gives me the inspiration to do what I want in my life. Along with this self reflection, or Svadhyaya , goes my intentions I have set for the year. It’s an exciting undertaking. But now comes the hard part; time to put the effort, energy, and time into bringing my aspirations to fruition. Yet, about Mid January, my personal time already feels squeezed with work, the kids, and a million other things. It’s easy to sink into the rut of doing life and crossing “spiritual nourishment” off the to-do list. Yet, it’s the very thing that will give me the energy and clarity to be present in my life. Funny that way.

I have mentioned this before, many times, and I always have to reminded. Getting on my mat gives me that vital check-in time that I need. My body receives the movement and exercise it needs while my mind can slow down and settle down. The at-home practice is always available, but nothing beats the group Shakti, or power, from attending class. Expanding my practice is always at the forefront of my intentions. Whether it be through meditation, yoga studies or even through practice of core principle of yoga such as Ahimsa, or non violence. Broadening my self-understanding this way, makes me a better wife, mother, friend, and member of the community. Make the time for your yoga practice, and life will be full and rich! No doubt about it. Come to class even when it feels impossible!

Namaste, Keely Totten

“Discipline is getting yourself to do something you don’t necessarily want to do to achieve a result you really want to get.” –Andy Andrews Most people want to be healthy, want to feel good, want to function well and live a long life. The healthiest and happiest people on the outside have usually done a lot of work on the inside or in private. The discipline it takes to be healthy requires daily choices done consistently for a long time. Many of these choices are not easy. It requires that we have habits, good habits that we rely on to give us the best opportunity to have a healthy state of being. This requires that we take responsibility for our lives. “Learn to love the things that are good for you.” --Dr. Eric Plasker, author The 100 Year Lifestyle If we can discipline ourselves and take responsibility for our lives, we recognize that between stimulus and response we have the ability to respond and this is where our power lies. We discipline ourselves to make choices, good choices and when we practice this discipline we develop habits and these habits develop our true character and this character determines our ultimate results. This discipline frees us to live unencumbered by illness or injury. In regards to our physical health we will make choices in the areas of exercise, nutrition, rest and protecting our spine and nervous system. The question arises are you developing good or bad habits in regards to taking responsibility for

your health? Good habits require discipline and are not easy to put in place but once they are in place they are easy to live with. Bad habits develop when you are not responsible and do not discipline yourself. Therefore bad habits are easy to put in place but hard to live with. When you are in crisis and suffering, the situation requires your utmost attention, you are motivated and desirous to reclaim your health. You will do whatever is required and follow instructions in an admirable fashion. However, as you become stable and relief has been achieved, do you proceed into the critical transition of rehabilitation and regeneration with the same fervor? Do you continue on the path to achieve optimum fitness and achieve lifestyle care? Protecting your spine and nervous system with exercise, nutrition, rest and practicing good posture, and having your spine checked for interference and function is a discipline and practice of top performers whether it be in sports, entertainment, the board room or top performers in any industry. They make chiropractic care part of the health disciplines they practice regularly so their nervous system can function with ease and be well connected. The nervous system controls all the other systems so they are all necessary to build and maintain health. In 2014 make regular chiropractic care part of the disciplines you employ to create great habits, outstanding character and the life you desire and deserve.

Just when I thought I read it all, I read

Homeless Female Veterans Are Facing Eviction and Shelter’s Landlord Evicts Homeless Vets, Kids in recent Pasadena Star News issues. To me, just evicting Veterans and their children would be heartless, but this man (landlord) seems worse. Last November I attended Congresswomen Judy Chu and Grace Napolitano’s Domestic Violence Campaign Culmination Press Conference where I learned that 270 (30 gal. each) large bags of women’s/children’s clothing, school supplies and toys had been collected for distribute to local four shelters. Congresswoman Napolitano also spoke of Almost Home, for homeless female veterans and their children on a temporary basis. I wanted

to learn more because I had some children’s books which I thought would be good to donate. Sometime in mid December, I spoke with Theresa Martinez from Almost Home and she said they had to go to court to avid eviction! I was shocked!Almost Home Transitional Housing was founded by Esperanza Ortega. The house currently used had been an eyesore, badly damaged by squatters. But there were extensive improvements by volunteers from the Home Depot Foundation and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers; the home opened in early 2014. During the year, Home Depot provided an edible garden, a barn, new bathrooms, new floors and a new kitchen with new appliances. IBEW completely rewired the home. Funds from grant money to support veterans paid for work. How could this eviction happen? The homeowner (Shang) says that Ortega missed a $3500 rent payment and didn’t get permission to operate a transitional home. Ms. Ortega said Shang has threatened her with eviction every month after he refused to give her a mailing address for the rent payments. She told me he

would show up for the rent-usually after the due date. Each late payment came with a tacked-on $700 late fee. Ms. Ortega also told me that “Every month he would demand more money. If I didn’t pay, he would put us in for eviction.” She also said payments had been made in cash until November when Ms. Ortega decided to create a record of the payments by only paying with checks. She said Shang refused to accept a check in November and that is when the eviction began.Monday I spoke to Teresa Martinez a former combat medic with the Navy who moved into the facility in August with her chronically ill 15-year-old son. Theresa informed me they were in the process of moving into a hotel, thanks to a kind donor who paying for two weeks’ lodgings. I was heartsick-had seen photos of the home’s interior with bunk beds and even a bassinet. I wondered about their furniture and belongings; much has

been put in storage. (Friends, relatives and student volunteers from Citrus College Veterans Network were helping with the move.) Wednesday I spoke with Esperanza. She told me how the landlord was there and had no remorse. He didn’t even give them time to get everything out. The deputies who had to make sure the eviction was carried out were not happy about the situation after seeing the renovated kitchen with new appliances and kitchen cabinets, donated by Home Depot.(Every year this fine business helps out Veterans such as VFW 2070 in Monrovia-Home Depot remodeled the hall.) I am having a VERY HARD time digesting this whole situation. Ms. Ortega is hosting a FUNDRAISER at 7p.m. January 17th at Azusa‘s VWF Post 8070 for Almost Home and her Montebello-based Veteran resource center, The Hook-up. Anyone interested in directly donating can also do it through GoFundMe at www.gofundme.com/almosthomevethousing.com or by visiting their website at www.almosthomevethousing.com Thank you.

LOOKING FOR A BEST FRIEND??

PET OF THE WEEK Winnie: Animal ID #A4786629

GRAY WOLVES HAPPILY HOWLING, YET AGAIN

Looking For A Best Friend??To start the year off right? Samantha is very sweet terrier mix girl, about 1 year old and weighing 10 pounds. She has medium length white and cream wiry fur that is easy to care for. Samantha loves people and is very friendly and affectionate. She is quite happy in a lap, being petted, or lying quietly by her companion. She will come to you and put her paws on your lap asking for some love. Samantha is a smart girl and has already learned the “sit” and “down” commands. Samantha gets along well with her kennel mate and seems to enjoy socializing with other dogs she has met at the shelter. Samantha has calm, gentle energy. She still needs some leash training, but she enjoys going on a walk and each time she is out she gets a little more comfortable with her harness and leash. She can be a little unsure of herself in new situations, but with a little encouragement, she is fine.

Come in and meet sweet Samantha and see if she would fit into your family. She would be a good companion for an individual, couple or family, and would do well with another dog in the home. She currently resides at the San Gabriel Valley Humane Society located at 851 E. Grand Avenue in San Gabriel with her roommate. We are located off San Gabriel Blvd., north of Mission and south of Las Tunas. To arrange a ‘Meet and Greet’ with Samantha, please stop by

any time from 10:00am to 4:30pm Tuesday thru Sunday. Her adoption fee is $120 which includes her spay surgery, a microchip, first vaccinations and a free wellness check-up at a participating veterinarian. Feel free to call us at (626) 286-1159 for more information on Samantha. See our website at www.sgvhumane.org for information and photos of all our wonderful pets.

Meet Winnie, a sweet little pup who is eager to please! Winnie (A4786629) is a regal 10-month-old tan female Italian Greyhound and Chihuahua mix puppy who was found in West Covina and brought to the Baldwin Park Animal Care Center on December 23rd. Weighing 8 lbs, Winnie is a bit overwhelmed in the busy shelter environment and prefers being carried to walking on a leash at the moment. We expect that once she is out of the shelter and in a home environment she will be more eager to stretch her legs, and will blossom into a fun and loyal companion. Winnie has a long, sleek body, a medium-energy level, and seems to enjoy the company of other dogs. With her soulful face and cooperative disposition, Winnie will be an excellent best friend for either a first-time or experienced pet parent. To watch a video of Winnie, please visit the following link: http://youtu.be/I0x6VhC_1pU To meet Winnie in person, please see her at the

The gray wolf has been an indigenous inhabitant of what we now call North America, since way before Euro-settlers came into residence and began documenting the history of this amazing continent. In that way, I guess we modern-day Americans could say wolves are our predecessors. In fact, the gray wolf has contributed enormously to the human’s success in occupying natural spaces globally, in all areas where they lived before us. When European settlers began to show up on the shores of North America, and proceeded to travel from one side of the continent to the other, the gray wolves and all other wild animals who lived here were forced to migrate and acclimate as necessary, in order to survive and keep their populations in tact. Eventually, as the natural spaces became more occupied by humans, most wolves and many of their wild counterparts were forced completely out of their natural habitats, only to find themselves on the opposite side of a fence, peering over at a new type of animal they’d never before been privy to - domestic pets and livestock. While the new American settlers were going about their business of taking over this continent’s natural landscape and bullying the indigenous people out of their way, they soon realized that the wolves could provide pelts for protection against the elements. And so, the wolf became the new American’s friend and their potential enemy all at the same time. The new-comers considered the wolf valuable for it‘s coat, but it was also a nemesis because of it’s desire and ability to eat their delicious livestock and pets. That is when man’s advantage of having guns and ammunition helped create a natural imbalance for all species involved, and sadly enough, the battle between wolf and human still continues to this day. In recent years, the gray wolf has been revered as friend by some and as foe by others, and I believe that our government is rather stuck in the middle. Unfortunately, many our federal folks are too easily influenced by the color green, and I don’t mean the environmental kind of green. Indeed, some of our elected officials on capital hill are vulnerable to the influences of lobbyists who are willing to pay to get their way on behalf of those who hired and pay them handsomely to pound the pavement for the mission. Fortunately, however, there are some “powers that be” who still maintain a standard of morality, and care about nature’s balance and understand how it effects all of we humans in both the short, and long run. One current “person of power“ who understands and cares about the balance of nature is U.S. District Judge Beryl A. Howell. In fact, she cared enough to use her power to overturn the 2012 decision made by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service that the gray wolves in the Great Lakes region should be removed from the list of protected

endangered species. Last month, Howell made her would-be-but-not clandestine call based on the fact that the federal government had not complied with the Endangered Species Act of 1973 in their 2012 decision. I am so pleased that we still have leaders who pay attention to the details, and care enough to bring important facts to light, and in this case I know it made all animal and nature lovers extremely happy! Kudos to our beloved Judge Howell. Now, let’s get down to the true reality that abides, and can bite when it comes to protecting wildlife in this country. Lobbyists will do and pay anything possible to get their way on capital hill. It’s a fact that most people apparently don’t like to address. I guess it’s because it sounds wrong in a nation that we want to think of as being so strong and morally sound. Well, the truth does bite at times, so let‘s keep it real. The wolves in the Great Lakes Region are protected from hunters and other killers for now, but they still need our support. Soon enough, there will be a swing of the pendulum. There will be more lobbyists snuggling up to our leaders to get what they want to satisfy the other side of the fence. So, those of us who understand and care about what is happening with the wolves and, ultimately, with nature’s balance, need to be vigilant. It takes a nation to save a wolf, so it seems. I beg all of you to please do your part by keeping yourselves informed of current and proposed legislation. Take a moment to contact your elected officials regarding issues of importance, when they arise. Conduct frequent internet searches on what’s happening with wildlife in America, and pay attention to what our leaders are doing on capital hill. I know we Sierra Madreans don’t live near the area immediately affected by this new switch of legislation - Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan (aka: Great Lakes Region) - but we should be supportive of any decision made to protect wild animals on our continent, and globally. We have our own battles to pick here in California, but the same mentality prevails for all states, which is the need to preserve nature’s balance, and all species that play a collective part in keeping it that way.

Here’s to another wonderful win for the wild wolves ~ Love and let live!

Jeff’s Book Picks By Jeff BrownSEAN’S SHAMELESS REVIEWS:

ARTISTS TO WATCH IN 2015

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT

On the Marquee: Notes from the Sierra MadrePlayhouse

James Bay – “Chaos and The Calm” (March 24th, 2015) – British singer/songwriter James Bay is only 24 years

old, but will be making his major label debut in March with “Chaos and The Calm.” The Brighton Institute of Modern Music attendee, Bay has played virtually everywhere that would take him. He steps into the arena with classic influences on his sleeve. A distinctive guitar melody and warm vocals truly put this youngster in a whole new category. Reminiscent of Vance Joy, who went on to have a stellar debut LP this past September. The single, “Hold Back The River” touches upon blues, folk, and pop. Bay’s paints a visceral portrait with sincere lyrics and moving vocals. The true artistry on display is alluring, which makes one genuinely excited for the full-length album in two months. James Bay is shaping up to become the next breakthrough artist for 2015.

George Ezra – “Wanted On Voyage” (January 27th, 2015) – Another British singer/songwriter to watch for in 2015 is George Ezra. “Wanted on Voyage” has already been out in other countries, but here stateside we’ll be graced with the record later this month. Ezra, with his trembling vocals showcases tons of charisma. His single, “Barcelona” is a true gem displaying the singer’s joyous approach to music. In fact, the entire album is brimming with jubilant undertones. Ezra specializes in a laidback, everything-is-going-to-be-okay style in his own craftsmanship. Like the artist above him (Bay), Ezra performs within the soundscape of folk/blues/rock. His magnetic falsettos and sharp songwriting abilities are much pleasure for the listeners’ ears. He will be hitting the road this month with Sam Smith and that kind of exposure alone should

allow Ezra’s overseas momentum carry well into 2015 over here in the U.S. of A.

Night Beds – “Untitled 2015 LP” – Colorado native Winston Yellen performs under the moniker Night Beds. His 2012 debut album, “Country Sleep” was a powerful folk endeavor showcasing his much talent as a both a singer and songwriter. It was a colorful illustration of solitude and loneliness. While the follow up sophomore has officially announced, Night Beds released a new song entitled, “Me Liquor and God.” It’s a brand new sonic direction for the mid twenty-something year old. The song uses wavy snyths to lighten up Yellen’s deeply personal lyrics. If this latest approach is any indication of what the anticipated second LP will sound like, then we’re in store for something tremendously special and unique. “Me Liquor and God” is effective on both the lyrical forefront as well as the musical backdrop. Look for a huge, defining year for Night Beds in 2015.

Gang Of Youths – “Untitled Debut LP 2015” - Australian indie-rockers Gang Of Youths latest single, “Benevolence Riots” is brooding indie rock in the form of something like The National. These dudes don’t even have an LP yet, but they’ve ignited the indie blogosphere with their piercing guitar work, incredibly pure song writing abilities, and lead singer David Leaupepe’s euphonious baritone. While there’s no date announced for their debut record, it will come out sometime in the first half of 2015. Besides their presence at SXSW this past year, they haven’t had much exposure stateside. Little is known of Sydney based group Gang Of Youths, but what I’ve heard thus far, I must say their sound is nothing shy of downright intoxicating. I anticipate Gang of Youths being the must-see band in music festivals throughout the year.

A COLDER WAR by Charles CummingInternationally acclaimed as “a premier writer of espionage thrillers” (USA Today). Cumming returns with MI6 agent Tom Kell in a tour de force that will dazzle readers . A top-ranking Iranian military official is blown up while trying to defect to the West. An investigative journalist is arrested and imprisoned for writing an article critical of the Turkish government. An Iranian nuclear scientist is assassinated on the streets of Tehran. These three incidents, seemingly unrelated, have one crucial link. Each of the three had been recently recruited by Western intelligence, before being removed or killed. Then Paul Wallinger, MI6’s most senior agent in Turkey, dies in a puzzling plane crash. Fearing the worst, MI6 bypasses the usual protocol and brings disgraced agent Tom Kell in from the cold to investigate. Kell soon discovers what Wallinger had already begun to suspect,that there’s a mole somewhere in the Western intelligence, a traitor who has been systematically sabotaging scores of joint intelligence operations in the Middle East.

ASTORIA: JOHN JACOB ASTOR AND THOMAS JEFFERSON’S LOST PACIFIC EMPIRE: A STORY OF WEALTH, AMBITION, AND SURVIVAL by Peter Stark

Astoria is the thrilling, true-adventure tale of the 1810 Astor Expedition, an epic, now forgotten, 3 year journey to forge an American empire on

the Pacific Coast. Peter Stark offers a harrowing saga in which a band of explorers battled nature, starvation, and madness to establish the first American settlement in the Pacific Northwest and opened up what would become the Oregon trail, permanently altering the nation’s landscape and its global standing.Six years after Lewis and Clark began their journey to the Pacific Northwest, two of the Eastern establishment’s leading figures, John Jacob Astor and Thomas Jefferson, turned their sights to founding a colony on the West Coast and transforming the nation into a Pacific trading power. Stark recreates this pivotal moment in American history for the first time for modern readers, drawing on original source material .Unfolding over the course of three years, from 1810 to 1813, Astoria is a tale of high adventure and incredible hardship in the wilderness and at sea. Of the more than one hundred-forty members of the two advance parties that reached the West Coast—one crossing the Rockies, the other rounding Cape Horn—nearly half perished. Though the colony would be short-lived, it opened provincial American eyes to the potential of the Western coast and its founders helped blaze the Oregon Trail.

THE INVENTION OF WINGS: A NOVEL by Sue Monk KiddSue Monk Kidd presents a masterpiece of hope, daring, the quest for freedom, and the desire to have a voice in the world..Hetty “Handful” Grimke, an urban slave in early 19th century Charleston, yearns for life beyond the suffocating walls that enclose her within the wealthy Grimke household. The Grimke’s daughter, Sarah, has known from an early age she is meant to do something large in the world, but she is hemmed in by the limits imposed on women.Kidd’s sweeping novel is set in motion on Sarah’s eleventh birthday, when she is given ownership of 10 year old Handful, who is to be her handmaid. We follow their remarkable journeys over the next 35 years, as both strive for a life of their own, dramatically shaping each other’s destinies and forming a complex relationship marked by guilt, defiance, estrangement and the uneasy ways of love.As the stories build to a riveting climax, Handful will endure loss and sorrow, finding courage and a sense of self in the process. Sarah will experience crushed hopes, betrayal, unrequited love, and ostracism before leaving Charleston to find her place alongside her fearless younger sister, Angelina, as one of the early pioneers in the abolition and women’s rights movements.Inspired by the historical figure of Sarah Grimke.This exquisitely written novel is a triumph of storytelling that looks with unswerving eyes at a devastating wound in American history, through women whose struggles for liberation, empowerment, and expression will leave no reader unmoved.

How are your New Year’s r e s o l u t i o n s going? I set my sights small, and resolved to drink less creamy and

sugary coffee at work. Instead, I mix an aspartame-laden “Crystal Light” knock off with water in a two-liter bottle and sip it throughout the day. Sure, it’s artificial and possibly carcinogenic, but at least it’s gotta be better than sugar with coffee --I mean coffee with sugar. So, I was filling my water bottle from the sink in the break room the other day when the boss burst through the door. “What are you doing?” she asked. Aghast, I sheepishly looked up from the faucet. “Uh, getting water?” “No, no, no!” she said, shaking her head. “Come on,” she motioned toward her office, “Use the ‘Arrowhead’ in there.” I could feel water overflowing from my bottle into the sink, and nodded, “Okay, maybe next time.” I figured, why waste a perfectly good batch of flavored water? Luckily, some small crisis distracted my boss and I was able to retreat to my office with my substandard “faucet water” drink. For a while I wondered if I was the only tap water-drinking employee until last week, when the topic of tap vs. bottled water came up during lunch. “I was a hose drinker as a kid!” one of the senior workers joked with the boss. This prompted a number of us closet hose drinkers to “come out” and admit our tacky-”tap” habits. “Yeah,” one of my coworkers chimed in, “Nothing tastes better than cold water from the hose after

playing outside all day!” A number of us reminisced about our own tap water childhood memories. I don’t know about you, but I never understood the purpose of bottled water. Talk about the antithesis of “green” living! Think about all the plastic used to store bottled water. Then consider the fuel needed to transport it from place to place. THEN consider the fact the most bottled water is drawn from municipal sources, not the babbling brooks of the Sierras, Andes, or any other pristine locale. The waste that goes into producing regular bottled water is bad enough, but then they’ve got to

go and make even smaller bottles of water! What? You or your kid can’t commit to a 12 oz. bottle, so you go for the tiny 6 oz.? Yes, midget water bottles are cute, but really, can cute be justified at the cost of jeopardizing the environment? I understand that there are situations that demand bottled water. Anytime you’re traveling in the third world or a developing nation, by all means, stock up on Dasani or whatever brand you like. During a vacation to Michigan, we stayed at a relative’s house that was situated in the middle of a corn field. The water had an orange tint, and smelled like burning sulfur. I don’t recall whether or not I actually showered in it, but that was one time I was very grateful for a bottle of Arrowhead! So, if you’re traveling, take advantage of our wonderful advances in bottled water. But if you’re torn between filling up at the kitchen sink or paying $1 for a bottle of Dasani, I hope you choose the sink. It’s a heck of a lot cheaper. And remember --what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger!

Dear Savvy Senior:A coworker was recently telling me about a tax credit she got last year for simply contributing to our company’s 401(k) plan. What can you tell me about this, and who’s eligible?Over 55

Dear Over:It’s called the “retirement saver’s tax credit,” and it’s a frequently overlooked credit that’s available to low and moderate-income individuals and families who make saving for retirement a priority. Here’s how it works. If your contribute to a traditional or Roth IRA, or an employer sponsored plan like a 401(k), 457, 403(b), SEP plan, SIMPLE IRA or other retirement-savings plan, the retirement saver’s tax credit will allow you to claim 10, 20 or 50 percent of your contribution, depending on your income, up to a maximum of $1,000 per person or $2,000 per couple. To qualify, you must also be at least 18 years old and not a full-time student, and were not claimed as a dependent on someone else’s tax return. And your adjusted gross income in 2015 must be $61,000 or less as a married couple filing jointly, $45,750 or less if filing as head of household, or $30,500 or less if you’re a single filer. These income limits are adjusted annually to keep pace with inflation. To get the 50 percent credit, you’ll need to have an income below $18,250 if you’re single, $27,375 if you’re filing as head of household, and $36,500 for couples in 2015. The 20 percent credit rate applies to individuals earning between $18,251 and $19,750; for head of household filers it’s $27,376 to $29,625; and for couples it’s $36,501 to $39,500. And the 10 percent rate is for individuals with an adjusted gross income between $19,751 and $30,500; for head of household filers 29,626 to $45,750; and couples it’s between $39,501 and $60,100.

Double Tax BreakYou also need to know that the retirement saver’s tax credit can be claimed in addition to the tax deduction you get for contributing to your employer’s retirement plan or a traditional IRA.

Here’s an example of how this works. Let’s say you’re married and have an income of $37,000, and your spouse is not working. If you contribute $1,000 to your company’s 401(k) plan, your adjusted gross income would be reduced to $36,000 on your tax return. You would also be able to claim a 50 percent retirement saver’s credit, which is worth $500, for your $1,000 401(k) contribution.

Keep in mind though that this is a tax credit, not a deduction, so it lowers your income tax dollar for dollar. It is, however, a nonrefundable tax credit, which means it cannot reduce the amount of tax owed to less than zero.

How to ClaimTo claim the credit, you will need to fill out Form 8880 (see irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f8880.pdf) and attach it to your 1040, 1040A or 1040NR when you file your tax return. Don’t use the 1040EZ Form. If you think that you would have qualified for the credit in previous years but didn’t claim it, you can file an amended return as far back as 2011 and still get the credits. A 2011 amended return is due by April 15, 2015. See IRS Form 1040X (irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/i1040x.pdf) for instructions on how to file an amended return. And for more information on the retirement saver’s tax credit, see IRS Publication 590 “Individual Retirement Arrangements” (irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p590.pdf). If you don’t have Internet access to see or download these forms, call the IRS at 800-829-3676 and ask them to mail them to you. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O.

FAMILY MATTERS By Marc Garlett

Mountain Views-News Saturday, January 10, 2015

13BUSINESS NEWS & TRENDS

One of the many challenges my wife and I face as parents is simply trying to keep the peace between our children. Our six-year-old son and five-year-old daughter can be the best of friends … and the worst of enemies (often alternating between the two multiple times within the span of just a few minutes). I suppose it’s all part of raising small children, but unfortunately, I see this same scenario play out time after time among adult siblings when a messy estate causes family rifts. And it doesn’t need to be that way. In fact, if handled properly, your estate plan should help bring your children together rather than tear them apart. Here are 10 tips to help prevent your children from fighting over your estate: 1. Talk to children about your estate plan. It may be a difficult discussion to have, but you need to have it. If you find it too difficult, enlist the help of your estate planning attorney to go over the details of your estate plan with your children and answer their questions. In fact, because this is so important I include just such a “family meeting” in every estate plan I put together for my clients. 2. Write your children a letter. If you can’t face a face-to-face discussion (or even if you can), put it in writing with as much detail as you are comfortable providing to your children. You can frame the discussion in general terms and ask for their input. This is a great way to get them invested in ensuring your plan works the way you want it to. 3. Email your children your estate plan summary. Your estate planning attorney will usually provide you with a summary of your estate plan that doesn’t disclose details or actual dollar amounts. Ask your estate planning attorney to copy your children on an email with the summary and ask for their input. 4. For complex estates, consider a mediator. If you have a complicated estate that may include valuable collections or a family business, ask your attorney about bringing in a professional mediator who can meet with you and your children separately to identify any potential issues and then meet with you together to iron out those issues. 5. Use equal treatment. If possible, leave your children an equal inheritance; most family fights result from children being treated unequally. 6. If you establish a trust for children, name each child as a co-trustee of their own trust at a certain age. Choose a reasonable age for when you feel a child will be able to participate in managing their own trust so they can learn about handling an inheritance with the guidance of the main trustee.

7. Consider staggered distributions from a trust. To help a child learn how to manage a substantial inheritance, estate planning experts often advise staggering distributions over a period of time (i.e., age 25, 30, etc.). 8. Provide children with an option to remove or replace the main trustee. Similar to arranged marriages, you never know if children and trustees will make a go of the relationship. Give children limited power to remove and replace a trustee with a different, qualified trustee. 9. Allow children to name their own co-trustee. If your children are competent adults, give them the power to name the independent co-trustee of their trust. 10. Include mediation instructions in your estate plan. Your estate planning attorney can add mediation language so that if a dispute arises, your children will not be tied up in emotionally and financially draining litigation.If you’d like to ensure your estate plan doesn’t lead to a family feud, I’d be happy to sit down with you and help identify the best strategies to provide for and protect the financial security and family harmony of your loved ones.To you family’s health, wealth, and happiness, A local attorney, father, and CASA volunteer (Court Appointed Special Advocate for Children), Marc Garlett is on a mission to help parents protect what they love most.

The other day I received an email that used all caps in a very tiny script font! I needed to read it but it took me forever! OUCH, my aching eyes. With so much content coming at us on mobile devices, it’s important to take it easy on your readers. Choose legible fonts and make them bigger. If email marketing is part of your business and you rely on it to convert sales…make sure it’s easy to read. Do you know what the most legible font is on-line? If you guessed Verdana, you are correct. Arial and Helvetica are also easy to read on screens. Fonts that are typically more legible in print, like Times, tend to

look blurry in the on-line world. Font size matters too. Constant Contact says to stick with 16 point for body copy and 22 point for headline copy. You can still add some flavor with bigger, smaller and fancier fonts here and there. Just don’t over do it. In the end, you want your message to get read. MJ’s business, HUTdogs, offers helpful workshops throughout Southern California and helps business owners and non-profits have success with email and social media marketing.

OUCH… THAT FONT IS PAINFUL!

Many sellers are tempted to list For Sale By Owner (FSBO) because they feel home prices are down and they don’t want to lose one more penny to paying a commission. But with fewer than ten percent of all home sales falling into the FSBO category, it’s a challenging strategy. In personal terms, you’ll have to safeguard your-self against prospects who have not been screened and qualified by a professional. When someone calls to request a showing, note their caller ID and keep a log of visitors. Stash away prescrip-tion medications and valuables before showings, and afterwards check that all your windows and doors are locked. There are also legal considerations for your list-ing and hopefully, your eventual sales contract. Be sure your listing complies with the Fair Hous-ing Act, which prohibits discrimination against buyers. If you’re unfamiliar with escrow and title

insurance, hire a real estate attorney to draft, re-view and record all documents. This economy makes securing a loan difficult, so it’s wise to require a loan pre-approval letter from buyers before accepting any offers. If you really want to get attention, sweeten the pot by offering a two to three percent commission to any agent who brings buyers to you. FSBO is not the easiest route, and many impatient and frustrated sellers end up hiring an agent to make the sale happen.

NASA’S KEPLER MARKS 1,000TH EXOPLANET DISCOVERY

OUT TO PASTOR A Weekly Religion Column by Rev. James Snyder

How many stars like our Sun host planets like our Earth? NASA’s Kepler Space Telescope continuously monitored more than 150,000 stars beyond our solar system, and to date has offered scientists an assortment of more than 4,000 candidate planets for further study—the 1,000th of which was recently verified. Using Kepler data, scientists reached this millenary milestone after validating that eight more candidates spotted by the planet-hunting telescope are, in fact, planets. The Kepler team also has added another 554 candidates to the roll of potential planets, six of which are near-Earth-size and orbit in the habitable zone of stars similar to our Sun. Three of the newly-validated planets are located in their distant suns’ habitable zone, the range of distances from the host star where liquid water might exist on the surface of an orbiting planet. Of the three, two are likely made of rock, like Earth. Two of the newly validated planets, Kepler-438b and Kepler-442b, are less than 1.5 times the diameter of Earth. Kepler-438b, 475 light-years away, is 12 percent bigger than Earth and orbits its star once every 35.2 days. Kepler-442b, 1,100 light-years away, is 33 percent bigger than Earth and orbits its star once every 112 days. “With each new discovery of these small, possibly rocky worlds, our confidence strengthens in the determination of the true frequency of planets like Earth,” said Doug Caldwell, SETI Institute Kepler scientist at NASA’s Ames Research Center at Moffett Field, California. “The day is on the horizon when we’ll know how common temperate, rocky planets like Earth are.”

EVERYTHING NEW GETS OLD TOO SOONI am not one to stay up New Year’s Eve to watch some celebrity drop the ball at Times Square at midnight. All year long I have to put up with people dropping the ball so I’m not going to make a special effort to watch somebody drop another ball.As for the Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage and myself we stayed home

New Year’s Eve and enjoyed our own society. It’s always good to have nothing to do and knowing that nobody will stop by and nobody’s going to call us on the phone. A night with the cell phones quiet is like a night in the forest. Everybody is out celebrating the end of the old year.I think everybody has the right to celebrate in his or her own way.One thing struck both of us as we were reclining and drinking some apple cider tea. Believe me, it’s a rare occasion when the same thought invades both of our thinking space at the same time. She seems to always know what I’m thinking and I never seem to be thinking.She looked at me and said, “Do you know what I’ve been thinking?”Being a husband for as many moons as I have been, I know a trick question when I hear it. Since this is the last night of the old year, how do I know she’s not using it to get in one more trick question?But, it’s the last evening of the old year and so I threw caution to the wind (which actually hit the wall) and walked into her question.“No, what have you been thinking?”“I’ve just been thinking about how fast time flies.” And then she seemed to stare into space.She had a good point there. I’m not sure which airline time travels on but it sure does go fast.While I was musing, which isn’t really that amusing, she then let her thoughts flow.“Everything new seems to get old too soon. Just as soon as you get something new, in no time it becomes old.”I suspect she was thinking of me when she used the word “old.” I didn’t say it, but I wanted to say, “Old is better than dead.” Sometimes it’s best to keep your mouth shut especially when I’m with my wife.I don’t say this too often, but she had a great point there. It’s like when you buy a brand-new automobile at the auto dealer. It’s new when you sign the contract, it’s new when you step into the car and smell the freshness, but as soon as you drive it off the lot it’s an old car.We then started to talk about all the happenings during the past year. Many things happen, some bad, some good. Then, for whatever reason, my wife brought out our old family photo album. Whatever possessed her to do that I’ll never know nor will I ask.We began looking at some of the old pictures, but those old pictures were new when they were taken.When we came to our wedding pictures, I was a little shocked. I didn’t know anybody could look that young. There we were, a beautiful young bride and a somewhat handsome young groom. The only thing we had in common at the time was, we were both young.Looking at those old pictures, particularly of myself, it hardly seems possible that this old geezer staring back at me in the mirror each morning is the same young man in those pictures. Whatever happened to that young man?Then we went through the arrival of children and then grandchildren. They were so young when they were born! Look at them now.As my wife closed the photo album, she asked a very simple question. “I wonder what’s going to happen this New Year?” That sure opens up Pandora’s Box.That’s an excellent question to ponder and only time will tell. Next year at this time we will know the answer to that question.One thought did come to me, but I sure didn’t want to tell her. Certain things a person needs to find out for herself. The only thing I’m sure of for this coming New Year is it I’m going to get a little bit older, whatever that means. I hope it doesn’t mean I get grouchier or anything like that. Of course, I’m probably as grouchy as I’ll ever get or anybody could get. Grouchy gets old real fast. Trust me.For a few moments, we sat in quiet, musing our own thoughts and if she was on the same wavelength as me, she was thinking about how fast our time has gone. You don’t get a second chance to do many things in this life.I’m not one for making New Year’s resolutions, but if I were, I think one New Year’s resolution I would make would be, make sure I take advantage of the time and people I have when I have them. Appreciate each day and each person because it may be the last time.I think David might’ve had some thoughts along this line. “I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread” (Psalm 37:25).I can’t be young again but I can enjoy what God has put in front of me today.

“Earn your living through your particular gifts, serving the community by doing the things you love, even though it means starting small. Money is the fringe benefit of a job you like.” --- Author unknown

It is not surprising to hear reports that 80% of all “workers” dislike their jobs, and that “jobs” are identified as the single greatest

cause, or contributory factor to sickness or disease in nearly 80% of the people studied. I don’t know how many Sierra Madre workers hate their jobs, but I suspect it is similar to the this study. In a 1973 survey in Massachusetts, a special Department of Health, Education, and Welfare task force reported that the best predictor for heart attack was none of the classic risk factors, but rather, the level of one’s job dissatisfaction (Work in America: Report of a Special Task Force to the Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare, 1973). It is possible that this finding might be related to the observation that heart attacks (in the United States and other Western industrialized nations) cluster on Monday mornings from 8 to 9 a.m., which is the beginning of the work week. [Kolata, 1986; Muller et al., 1987; Rabkin et al., 1980; Thompson et al., 1992]. We’re not sure how scientific such studies can ever really be, but we’re convinced from personal experience, and observation, and interviews, that the so-called workplace, and the human dynamics of the workplace, are a major culprit when it comes to poor health and sickness. There are some of the obvious issues that have been reported excessively. Sitting behind a computer terminal all day, staring at that screen, your hands in one position. The loud noises associated with certain blue-collar jobs. The fumes and toxins associated with some manufacturing jobs and farming jobs. The repetitive and non-thinking nature of so many service-oriented jobs. But beyond these basic points, there is a more fundamental issue to look at. In general, these observations apply to someone who is working for someone else, not the person who owns or runs the business. Why is that? Because it is harder to enjoy a job which is essentially fulfilling someone else’s goals.

WHY DO I DO WHAT I DO EVERY DAY? Do you enjoy your work? No one seriously questions that we ought to perform duty in life, and that these duties are required to earn the medium of exchange for those things we cannot or choose not to make ourselves. But we seem to have taken this to a radical extreme. We recall a cartoon from an anti-automobile magazine. Two men are driving in a car on a gridlock freeway. The cars are not moving. The driver says, “I hate driving, but I need my car to get to work.” The passenger says nothing. In the next panel, the two men are sitting behind computer terminals in a big office, and the first man says, “I hate work, but I need my job to pay for my car.” The cartoon was funny, but insightful into the way we have chosen to think about our world, and the choices that we have come to believe are necessary. That is, if 80% of traditional workplace workers hate their jobs, then that is having a profound effect, hour by hour on their health. Assuming a 40 hour work week, this means (conservatively) that one spends 30 minutes getting ready for work, 30 minutes driving to work, 30 minutes driving home, 30 minutes undressing, and “unwinding.” That equals at least 10 hours a day, for most people, five days a week, with two days “off” to have to do whatever else it is that is important in your life. And if you hate whatever it is that you have devoted 50 hours a week to, you will very likely spend some of your free-time doing things to relax and get-away from what you felt you had to do to “pay the bills.” In other words, your “job” under such circumstances takes even more from your life than just those 40 to 50 hours. In essence, a job that we perform becomes our very life. We identify with that job, whether or not we like it. It is foolhardy in the extreme to not consider “what we do for a living” as being a major contributory factor to our health and well-being.

So, now what? Work is necessary. Work is good. But how do we get to a place where each person is spending the cream of their life promoting their own health and well-being, feeling good about what they are doing, making their own choices? There are many trends in this direction already. Home-schooling is one example where parents want to take-back control of their child’s education from an educational system that seems to have

failed in most cases. And though there are many late night TV schemes you can buy to work at home and be independent, we suggest you switch off the TV and start with yourself. What do you like? What do you like to do? What are you good at? Where would you like to spend a good portion of your day? What skills do you have which can be improved upon, or further developed, so you can turn that interest or skill into a profession? That is how you get started. Let’s go one step further. What is your purpose in life? We are not referring here to everyone’s ultimate purpose in life. We are referring to your individual purpose for embodying on the earth. What is your dharmaic destiny? Have you ever asked yourself: “What did I come here to do?” If you limit your concern only to “ways I can make money,” you might succeed at breaking out of the nine-to-five rat race, but you will not yet have risen to the level of fulfilling your own dharmaic destiny. As long as one is spending the majority of one’s life, time, and Light, at a job that they do not like, it is inevitable that your body rebels, and fights back, and explodes with occasional bouts of sickness, and flus, and colds, and headaches, and disease, until death. Our health in the fullest sense is a factor of what we do, what we think, how we use our emotions and feelings. Yes, “we are what we eat” is true on both a physical and psychic level, though that does not go far enough. Everything we do arises from our thinking. This includes whatever work we choose, whatever life we pursue. Thus, it has also been said that “We are what we think we are,” which is not quite the precision we prefer. We think it is more accurate to say: We are what we think. Finding your optimum daily “work” activity is something that only you can do for you. You have to work at it. You may not hit-upon the all-around ideal best occupation at first, but if you have an attitude of willingness to learn, and a feeling of gratitude that you can actually pursue your own occupation (in many countries of the world today, this is neither legal or practical to do, because of the prevailing political, economic, or social conditions). It can only help to continually take classes at a local college, or even TV classes, and learn more to expand your skills. It can only help to take small business classes (via H&R Block or the Small Business Administrations, or local colleges). We are not in any way suggesting that there is some “magic” in finding the ideal occupation for you. We are simply saying that the very act of seeking your ideal occupation, and working towards it with an uplifting, positive attitude, can have a remarkable influence upon your overall mental and physical health. One of the ways to begin pursuing “self-employment” is to take a large sheet of paper or poster, and vertically list all your skills and talents and interests and work-experience. Then list in the columns to the right all the “pros” of each pursuit, and all the “cons” to each pursuit. At this stage you might eliminate some pursuits because the cons outweigh the pros. In the next column, write how you might actually earn an income from each skill, talent, or interest. Let it be a brainstorm -- you won’t know until you actually get into the field and apply this -- but list whatever possible ways you can determine to earn an income from each item on your list. Next, check off those skills, or talents, or interests which are at a level of competency where you could feasibly go out and begin earning an income. Where possible, such a pursuit can be done with other family members or close friends and associates. Then you must make a decision, and where you know that you do not know something, find out! Call people already engaged in the activities you’d like to pursue. Ask them questions. In most cases, they will be willing to help and answer questions. We again point out that our intent here is not to provide “business advice” or “career planning.” But this is an important area to personally deal with when you’ve decided to take control of your life, and ipso facto, your health. The fact that money permeates our modern life is neither “good” nor “bad,” -- but it is something to be reckoned with. It has been said that arguments over money is the single greatest cause of marriages breaking up, and worry over money is one of the biggest ulcer and cancer causes in anyone who deals with money as a profession (stock broker, investor, commodity broker, etc.). “No man can hope to control his destiny. The best he can hope for is to control himself -- ONE SINGLE ACT AT A TIME. EACH SINGLE ONE of those acts are like bricks in a wall. A wall made of such bricks is a man’s character.” -- Anon. Obviously, there’s a lot more to be said about this – we’ll come back to this in another installment. [Nyerges is the author of “How to Survive Anywhere,” “Squatter in Los Angeles,” and other books.

OPINION Mountain Views-News Saturday, January 10, 2015

“We’re proud of this diversity as Democrats . . . we don’t have to manufacture it as the Republicans will next month . . . by propping up mannequin delegates on the convention floor.”- Mario Cuomo at the 1984 Democratic National Convention A good column brings to mind things that might otherwise have faded from recollection. In Susan’s column last week, she mentioned an acquaintance who’d offered her view that black folks should simply stop wearing hoodies; as they wouldn’t then be as scary to the rest of “us”. This brought to mind a story from a few days ago, that if a Republican Oklahoma state senator has his way, the act itself of wearing a hoodie would

land a $500 fine. You could be busted for simply appearing to be trying to hide your face, but there are exceptions; for religious attire, weather protection, Halloween celebrations and “minstrel troupes”. (Yes, that exception does appear in the language of the bill. Yes, this is the year 2015. And no, you can’t make this stuff up – especially when it concerns Republican legislatures.) In Greg Welborn’s column, he expressed the view that doing away with the corporate income tax would bring economic prosperity to everyone. This brought to mind an article in the current issue of The Atlantic, called “What’s Wrong With Georgia?” It describes how that state’s low-taxes, pro-business, corporate-friendly policies led to the highest unemployment in the nation last fall. As one unemployed machine operator put it, “This may be a good place for companies, but not for people actually looking for work.” 60% of new jobs require college degrees, while only 42% of young adult Georgians have one. With $8 billion in cuts from education over ten years, skyrocketing tuition increases, slashed scholarship programs and cutting unemployment benefits that provided opportunities to train in new skills, corporations are going out-of-state to fill positions. Quoting Wesley Tharpe of the Georgia Budget and Policy Institute, “It’s a misconception that these so-called business-friendly policies are closely related to economic growth. A state’s economy depends on an educated workforce, transportation infrastructure, public safety, reliable street cleaning, and snow removal.” The Atlanta Journal-Constitution titled its editorial, “Ga. has followed GOP playbook to 50th in nation”, referring to Georgia’s rank in per capita transportation funding as well as per capita revenue. It points out that while Republican Gov. Nathan Deal brags about Georgians’ low tax burden, the corollary is that Georgia relies on the federal government for nearly 40% of its budget – the eighth highest level in the country. The editorial reminds, “slashing taxes . . . has been Georgia’s approach to economic growth since the 1870s . . . In effect, we’re applying a 19th century industrial strategy to a 21st century economy, then wondering why it isn’t working. Because it isn’t. By any number of metrics – poverty, income, jobs – we’ve been losing ground for 15 years.” The commentary on the passing of former N.Y. Gov. Mario Cuomo brought to mind a lot of things, including wondering what my wife Mitsuko thought she was getting herself into when, for one of our first “dates” some thirty years ago, I took her to a Walter Mondale campaign rally.Okay, so he wasn’t the most compelling speaker. And he was up against one of the most engaging presidents ever behind a microphone or in front of a camera. Ronald Reagan came across as a well-meaning guy who didn’t “get it”. We had fun with his blaming trees for pollution, and attempt to classify ketchup as a vegetable in school lunches. We also had a fatalistic approach towards the upcoming election. And then, in his keynote address at the 1984 Democratic National Convention, Gov. Cuomo snapped us out of it. He referred to President Reagan’s “amiability” and wondered “maybe, Mr. President, if you asked a woman who had been denied the help she needed to feed her children because you said you needed the money for a tax break for a millionaire or for a missile we couldn’t afford to use.” But he didn’t wonder long, reminding that this “social Darwinism” was “how we were warned it would be”; “Make the rich richer, and what falls from the table will be enough for the middle class and those who are trying desperately to work their way into the middle class.” He asked, “What chance would the Republican candidate have had in 1980 if he had told the American people that he intended to pay for his so-called economic recovery with bankruptcies, unemployment, more homeless, more hungry, and the largest government debt known to humankind?” He reminded us who we’ve been as Democrats “ever since Franklin Roosevelt lifted himself from his wheelchair to lift this nation from its knees”, through “Truman’s NATO and the GI Bill of Rights; Kennedy’s intelligent tax incentives and the Alliance for Progress; Johnson’s civil rights; Carter’s human rights and the nearly miraculous Camp David Peace Accord.” He contrasted with how Republicans “divide the nation into the lucky and the left-out, into the royalty and the rabble . . . and they would call that division recovery.” As for foreign policy, “We give money to Latin American governments that murder nuns, and then we lie about it.” For Lawrence O’Donnell on his MSNBC show, Cuomo’s passing brought to mind the 1994 campaign for re-election as New York’s governor. Republican George Pataki hit hard on Cuomo’s refusal to endorse the death penalty, no matter what the crime. If Cuomo fudged just a little, say to endorse the death penalty in the case of cop killers, he’d probably keep his seat. And he’d be aware that, pragmatically, there wouldn’t be any death penalty carried out in his state, anyway. Mario Cuomo refused to back off his principles, though it cost him the governorship. I wonder how often, if ever, such considerations of principle over pragmatism will be brought to mind in the political battles lying ahead.

QUARTERBACKING CONGRESS

I’m not a huge fan of John Boehner. But now that he has both houses of Congress to work with, let’s give him a chance to move the Republican offense down the field to the end zone. After fighting off a challenge to his speakership this week, Boehner has held on to his job as the starting QB of the GOP’s legislative team in Washington. Boehner and his Boys of Winter have a lot of hard work to do for the next two years, on and off the field. But thanks to six years of fumbles by Obama at home and away, and Republican victories in the midterm elections last fall, the GOP is looking like the team to beat in 2016. The Republican position in Congress is stronger than it’s been in decades. Boehner has the largest majority – 246 to 188 – in the House since Truman was president. And the Senate is solidly in Republican hands with a 54-seat majority.It’s now or pretty much never if Republicans hope to retake the Oval Office and reverse the damage done to America by Team Obama. But before QB Boehner even thinks about which legislative play to call first – “Keystone -- 686 Pump F-Stop, on two”? – he and his party need to do some cheerleading for their own team. Boehner has been badly roughed up by everyone since 2011. The liberal media mock him. The conservative media have booed him unmercifully and he was almost sacked by some of his own teammates for being a wimpy conservative or a stooge of Obama.But Boehner and the Republican House he has presided over deserve credit for a miraculous accomplishment that few people, even Republicans, know about.Thanks mostly to the House, Congress has actually reduced federal spending for the last two years. The cuts are nowhere near what they should be -- $3.60 trillion in 2011 to $3.54 trillion in 2012 to $3.45 trillion in 2013. But it’s an important turnaround. It’s the first two consecutive years of federal spending cuts since 1953. Republicans should be tooting their own horn about that spending drop from coast to coast, because the liberal media sure aren’t going to do it.Meanwhile, Boehner’s game plan for the next two years is nothing new or complicated. The people of America want the Congress to work – and get to work. They want it to pass legislation that will create jobs and opportunity for Americans.It’s up to Congress – and QB Boehner -- to make that happen by pushing through laws to kill ObamaCare, cut taxes, cut spending budgets, slash regulations and repeal legislation (like ObamaCare) that harms the economy. If President Obama wants to veto everything a Republican Congress passes, fine.Let him become known as the obstructer in chief. Let Americans see that he’s the one whose policies need to be rejected in 2016. Boehner and his conservative Congress have to be careful, however. They need to approach the Washington political “game” the way Ronald Reagan did. My father looked at the legislative process in Washington like it was a football field.He knew that if you move the ball 10 yards at a time, you’ll eventually get to the end zone and you’ll accomplish something. He knew politics is always a work in progress. It’s the art of negotiation. Boehner and the Republican Congress don’t need to do everything this week or all at once. The worst thing QB Boehner could do is to start throwing a bunch of Hail Mary passes into the end zone. He should move the ball 10 yards at a time. If he plays it right, Republicans will score their TD and win the Super Bowl – the presidency of the United States in 2016.

A WORD FROM A BUCKEYE FANATIC Good-bye and good-riddance to 2014. As we move into 2015,

what can we learn from how 2014 ended and how we’re now “trending” in various areas? Here are a few items to watch:Look for signs of President Barack Obama’s REAL intentions. Not only were the results of the 2014 Congressional elections a “shellacking” for Democrats and Obama, a major paint job -- with four coats of black and blue paint. Now the question is whether Obama intends to spend his remaining two years nurturing compromises where he can get them, or looking for ways to embarrass, check-mate, thwart and weaken the Republicans who’ve spent his term stalemating his agenda, trying to destroy his legacy and demonizing him. By December 2015 who will have had the last laugh?

Will the Tea Party tail continue to wag the Republican dog -- or is the Republican dog now the Tea Party’s tail? There are already signs that House Speaker John Boehner and Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell are headed into a political buzz saw in their dealings with Congress’ most conservative members who favor confrontation, political brinksmanship and power politics over compromise, consensus and bipartisanship. Will Boehner and McConnell prove to be leaders who direct party members on a political path, or fearful followers and panderers obsessed with not losing support?Notoriety means big box office. North Korea and its hacking buddies’ attempt to keep Sony Pictures from releasing the comedy “The Interview” featuring a story involving the assassination of North Korea’s very much alive leader Kim Jong-un utterly backfired. By hacking Sony and allegedly being responsible for making terrorist threats against movie theaters which subsequently pulled the movie, North Korea helped the flick shatter online movie sales records. Add its almost certain release on DVD, cable and overseas showings, and North Korea turned a reportedly lame and inept comedy into...big B.O. Get ready for some studio to announce a movie about a team of Navy Seals assigned force ISIS leaders to eat pork chops. Hollywood may get more daring. Never underestimate Hollywood’s ability to grind out predictable sequels, formula action pix and cookie-cutter kids’ movies. 2014 gave us the film “Birdman,” featuring a comeback-generating performance by Michael Keaton, filmed to make it appear to have been shot in one or a few continuous takes, with an ending that left moviegoers debating and guessing. It started off in limited release and immediately soared, with more theaters quickly added.Acceptance of the quirky film is a sign that Americans don’t only yearn for (God save us) more Adam Sandler movies. Another sign came in early 2015 with the hit release of the film adaptation of Stephen Sondheim’s and James Lapine’s “Into the Woods.” While Sondheim’s famous complex scores that often seem to be fleeing traditional melody may make theatergoer’s swoon, they’re more of an acquired taste to others. The pizza revolution will continue. Pizza remains one of the biggest offenders when it comes to unhealthy fast food. But consumers are now demanding more than just sauce and cheese on crust, and they’re often getting it. Frank Peppe Pizzeria, the 90-year-old top ranked pizzeria from my home city of New Haven, has started to add restaurants in New York and Massachusetts. Pizza Hut revamped its menu with some unusual and often weird new flavors. When I went to Colgate University from 1968-1972, local pizza in the town of Hamilton, New York was terrible to tolerable. Today, Hamilton’s pizza places offer r-e-a-l world class pizza flavor.Will those mistreating women find zero tolerance? 2014 was a bad year for politician and celebrity sex harassers, offenders and exhibitionists in the U.S. and in Canada. Will 2015 end in the definitive implosion of comedian Bill Cosby, who is reportedly hiring private investigators?Can several big corporations stay afloat? Will 2015 end with a big “buh-bye” to the greatly-ailing JC Penny and to Radio Shack?Species going extinct: The Siberian Tiger and 14 other species may be gone by the of the year, mostly due to human negligence or aggression. The black rhino is almost extinct. The Republican RINO is extinct.

Have you ever heard the e x p r e s s i o n “ S o m e t i m e s you just have to go and find your own h a p p i n e s s ! ” , well after s t r u g g l i n g through the horrific events

of this week, I am desperately in need of a little joy. Don’t get me wrong, as I said last week, the world in my bubble is fine. But the world outside gives me much more than a headache, it gives me a true pain in my heart. It makes me fearful of what the world will be like for my children when they get to be my age, or for my grandchildren when they become adults. So rather than letting my fears of what the future holds depress me; rather than worry if we will continue to exercise our ‘freedoms’ irresponsibly and ultimately destroy our way of life, I’ve decided to look to something that gives me hope and joy regardless of the consequences. But before I get to that, I have to go back to something I referenced above. Today I have been absolutely overwhelmed with people voicing their opinions about the horrible situation in Paris. No doubt about it, the tragedy is inexcusable. But as journalists all over decry the actions as an assault on free speech, which it was, we also need to stop and think. Just like those madmen should not have taken the lives of a single person because they were angry or on a crusade, should those cartoons have been printed? Honestly? They were not just cartoons, they were much more than that. They demonstrated a total disrespect for the religious beliefs of millions. Can you imagine if the cartoons had been drawn about Jesus? So when you start your next conversation about the

situation in France, consider how would you feel if your God were depicted by cartoonists in the same way? Yes, we have a right to freedom of expression, but as members of the human race, we also have a responsibility to respect others and their beliefs. And of course, we need to respect human life, even when we don’t agree. Just because you CAN do something doesn’t mean that you should. And just because you have a gun, you just can’t go around killing people who piss you off. We have to stop being so irresponsible when it comes to exercising our rights and realize that we do have to exercise some restraint. Like or not, we have to live together on this earth, or perish. Anyway, that whole situation is why I want to focus on something much more pleasant. As many of you know, not only do I love golf, I love to cook. Well, this Monday night, I am hoping that I can be a part of the kitchen crew that makes a big pot of DUCK SOUP! Yep, that’s right, I’m putting all my energy into helping The Ohio State University whip up a main course made out of the Oregon Ducks for the College National Championships. Now, I do have some friends who are duck lovers, but this will be a level playing field and all I can say to you is that you better ‘bring it’! This game is important to Buckeye fanatics like myself, but also to my Big Ten brothers and sisters! Like any good family we pull together when necessary. It is comforting to know that even my Michigan buddies will be rooting for the Buckeyes! So, taking a break from the troubles of this world, Go Bucks! By the way, when this battle is over, regardless of the outcome, no one will be hurt, nations won’t be destroyed, a few wallets may be empty but economies won’t crumble and at the end of it all, we will shake hands and go on with our lives in peace. Imagine that.
