By Victoria Talbot Frustrated over unsafe conditions, poor code enforcement, lack of oversight, unresponsive government and overwhelming development, residents in Bel-Air have galvanized to form the Bel-Air Homeowners Alliance to make their voices heard and prevent a tragic accident like the one

on Loma Vista from happening in Bel-Air. Bel-Air is ground zero in the hillsides for developers, residents and City Hall in the wake of the tragic accidents in Beverly Hills that claimed the lives of two LAPD officers on Loma Vista.

Bel-Air Residents Form Homeowners Alliance

By Matt Lopez Republican Elan Carr and Democratic State Sen. Ted Lieu will face off in November for the right to replace retiring Rep. Henry Waxman in representing the 33rd district in congress.

Carr, a gang prosecutor with the L.A. County District Attorney’s

Office, led the predominantly Democratic Westside-South Bay-San Fernando Valley district with 21.5percent of the votes. Lieu followed closely behind with 19 percent of the vote, but picked up a huge endorsement late Thursday afternoon from Waxman himself.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING The Council of the City of Beverly Hills, at its regular meeting to be held on Tuesday, June 17, 2014, at 7:00 p.m., in the Council Chambers of the City Hall, 455 N. Rexford Drive, Beverly Hills, California, will hold a public hearing to consider adoption of:

A RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY O F B E V E R LY H I L L S A M E N D I N G T H E C O M P R E HENSIVE SCHEDULE OF TAXES, FEES & SERVICE CHARGES FOR THE FISCAL YEAR 2014/2015.

The proposed resolution will increase the taxes, fees, and service charges that are charged to the public for the various activities and services as set forth in the schedule for fiscal year 2014/2015. Many of the fees and charges would be adjusted to obtain full-cost recovery. In some cases fees were adjusted by 0.4% based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for November 2013 to reflect the increase in the City’s costs. In other cases, the fees were adjusted to reflect a change in service level, or more equitable distribution of costs, rather than by the CPI. Most fees would become effective on July 1, 2014.

Copies of the proposed Resolution are available for review or purchase in the Office of the City Clerk, Room 290, 455 N. Rexford Drive, and in the Finance Department, 3rd Floor, 455 N. Rexford Drive, Beverly Hills, California. Any interested person may attend the meeting and be heard. Written comments may also be submitted and should be addressed to the City Council, c/o City Clerk, 455 N. Rexford Drive, Beverly Hills, California, 90210. The comments should be received prior to the hearing date. If you need more information, please contact Carolyn Johnson at (310) 285-2459.

Please note that if you challenge the Council's action in regard to this matter in court, you may be limited to raising only those issues you or someone else raised at the public hearing described in this notice, or in written correspondence delivered to the City, either at or prior to the public hearing.

Woman Recovering From Gunshot Wound In Doheny Road Home Invasion Robbery

By Victoria Talbot An elderly woman is recovering from a gunshot wound she sustained when she answered a knock on the door at her home in the 400 block of Doheny Road at about 8:30 p.m. last Friday.

Three masked men forced entry, one brandishing a gun.

“They tied up the victims and subsequently took proper-

ty and fled from the location,” said BHPD Lt. Lincoln Hoshino.

The suspects fled through the front door eastbound on Doheny Road.

The male victim was able to untie himself and call the police who responded within two minutes.

During the robbery the woman who was in her late

70s, was shot in the leg. The wound was not life threatening and the two were transported to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Her husband, who received severe bruising, was admitted for precautionary measures.

The suspects, three white males, were wearing ski masks.

By Victoria Talbot Residents of Trousdale Estates met Wednesday with Councilman Willie Brien, City staff and Senior Partner Steve Brown of Fehr & Peers to hear 32 recommendations from the transportation consultants before the City finalized plans for

the first phase of Zero Tolerance on the hillside areas.

Brien and Vice Mayor Julian Gold are traffic liaisons.

He explained that this is an effort to find short-term solutions for the immediate future so that projects that have been under a heavy vehicle moratorium can

begin to go back to work. This is the first such meeting; there will be more to create a path for long-term solutions, as well. Ideas will require feedback from the community with more meetings so that the City can see what works and what (see ‘TROUSDALE’ page 16)

Singer Ray J Arrested By Beverly Hills Police

By Victoria Talbot Beverly Hills police arrested rapper Ray J, whose real name is Ray Norwood, Jr. last Friday.

Officers responded to a report of sexual battery at approximately 7:30 p.m. at The Beverly Wilshire Four Seasons where the performer was in-

volved in an altercation in the bar, said BHPD Lt. Lincoln Hoshino.

Officers persuaded Norwood to leave the hotel, but when placed into custody, he kicked out the rear window of a police car. He then spit in the face of one of the officers.

Norwood was charged

with vandalism, resisting arrest and battery on a police officer and held on $20,000 bail. He was released Saturday.

It was alleged he grabbed the buttocks of a female, reports Hoshino, but, ”it was later determined that no sexual battery had occurred and the contact was incidental.”

Beverly Hills Water Rates Could Increase By 2-Percent

By Matt Lopez Beverly Hills residents could once again be looking at more dollars being added to their water utility bill.

The Public Works Commission decided at its May meeting to recommend a 2percent increase on city-wide

water rates to the City Council for the 2014-15 fiscal year.

The City buys its water from the Metropolitan Water District, which, is set to mark up its charge to Beverly Hills for water to five percent in 2014 and around three percent (see ‘WATER RATES’ page 11)

Beverly Hills Unified Hires New Principal, Assistant Principals

Kevin Allen

By Laura Coleman The Beverly Hills Unified Board of Education on Tuesday approved the hire of Kevin Allen to the position of El Rodeo principal beginning July 1. The board also approved the hire of two new assistant principals for Beverly Hills High School: Renee Cobb and Kevin Brown.

“I'm really excited about the great potential that exists at El Rodeo,” said Allen, who is currently the principal of Miraleste (see ‘NEW PRINCIPALS’ page 16)

Beverly Hills Board Of Education Meeting Round-Up BUDGET: The Board of Education considered the first iteration of the 2014-2015 budget. It includes a positive certification, compensation increase considerations, and significant long-term underfunded pension liabilities. The district’s anticipated 2014/15 revenue is $56.7 million. Superintendent Gary Woods said over the next 25 years, the district will be paying $1.5 million annually due to its unfunded liabilities. The final 2013/14 budget (the fiscal year ends on July 1) will be ready in Fall, Woods said.

BELL SCHEDULE The Board of Education unanimously voted to adopt a standardized bell schedule known as “Option 5.” Facets of the schedule include: the total annual instructional minutes are 64,842, weekly teacher contact minutes are 1,370, period lengths are 54 minutes with the exception of Period 7, which is 58 minutes; and eight-minute passing periods.

CAFETERIA/FOOD SERVICE Beverly Hills Unified will rejoin the National School Lunch Program, with all food prepared henceforth by the district’s food services department. Superintendent Gary Woods said “the more traditional model” where the district prepares food in a centralized kitchen environment is intended to: “provide good quality food at a reasonable cost.” Although the food services now operates at a $200,000 deficit, Woods predicted the program could one day operate on a cost-neutral basis.

SIXTH GRADE HONORS MATH The board voted 3-2 to eliminate 6th grade honors level math, taking direction from the district’s Math Department, which characterized the variegated class taught at each of the K-8’s as, “a course by title only.” Superintendent Gary Woods clarified: “The rigor is going to be increasing not decreasing. A lot of formally 7th grade standards and skills and behaviors are now taught in the 6th grade common core standards.”

This unique home is an historic prize; a reminder that modern is not necessarily better. Charming and simple, the attention to details are also seen in the Gamble House, another Greene and Greene in

Pasadena.

The best example of highstyle Craftsman architecture in Beverly Hills, the home was originally constructed in 1909 for Earle C Anthony, founder of KFI radio. It was sold to actor Norman Kerry and moved to Beverly Hills in 1923.

Encompassing about 3/4 acre, the property includes a formal garden, pool and a detached garage.

The house will be offered in three weeks for $8.995 million to that special buyer who will steward this rich offering for generations to come.

The Name Says It All, Bringing Clients The ‘Luxury Jewelry They Deserve

W

hen they’re looking for fine estate and antique jewelry, custom-designed and created jewelry, and signed pieces by the top names in the business, people turn to Luxury Jewels of Beverly Hills.

In business for more than 20 years, the store has become the goto destination for luxury items by Cartier, Tiffany & Co., Rolex and Patek Philippe.

Those looking for that special piece for can choose from the store’s entire collection including stones, bracelets, pins, necklaces and pendants, earrings, watches, art and antiques and more with items ranging from $200 to more than $1 million.

Peter Sedghi, owner, has developed an international reputation as a buyer and seller of top-quality stones and jewelry; and he travels the world to find them.

He’s been called to Thailand, China and Italy to evaluate rare gems. And his experience and knowledge as a gemologist help him determine if “it’s something we want to buy and design something beautiful around.”

He also has the benefit of growing up in the family business. His parents are brother are in the trade; and his uncle got him involved.

“I love the interesting people I meet and the travel,” says Sedghi who has a background as a professional jazz musician, having played drums and percussion since he was

12. He even toured as part of the band, the Icabods.

Luxury Jewels is also known for it’s custom work. Whether its a ring, necklace, bracelet or anything a client imagines—“If someone comes in with an idea,” says Sedghi, “we can design it, create it from scratch and make it come to life. From designing the piece to cutting the stones, we do it all.”

The store’s designers can also redesign and update family heirlooms to create virtually new pieces.

What sets the store apar t, Sedghi says, are the selection— ”we’ve very picky about what we buy and make”—and as a wholesaler supplying other stores; “we don’t charge ridiculous prices.”

Luxury Jewels has an appraiser on staff for customers who want to sell items; and they also offer highamount collateral loans for people who need money and don’t want to go through a bank. And its not just jewelr y, they also handle collectibles, cars, motorcycles, paintings, antiques and more.

Clients can bring in an item and walk out with a check for $100,000$500,000. “We don’t advertise that so much and keep it low key and confidential for our clients’ privacy,” Sedghi reveals.

The boutique, at its previous location for 10 years, is marking four years at its current site, 203 S. Beverly Dr. For more information, call 310205-0093.

West of trucks as developers take advantage of the absence of regulations on excavation, hauling dirt and concrete through the steep, winding terrain.

One 85,154 sq. ft. project is the poster child for excessive excavation, removing 39,805 cubic yards of dirt from the fragile hillside ecology.

Councilman Paul Koretz appears oblivious to resident’s concerns. Despite dozens of emails with photos of illegally parked personal construction vehicles, residents’ cars being sideswiped by speeding trucks, and a truck accident that blocked egress from Chalon road for hours, Koretz refuses to provide contact numbers for complaints outside business hours though trucks line up to patronize illegally parked food trucks and illegal hauling begins on Friday evening.

Koretz has also repeatedly overruled recommendations by the West L.A. Planning Commission, using Charter Section 245. In one case Koretz overrode a decision to deny a Stone Canyon project a 50-foot height variance, leading to the approval of a 20,000 squarefoot spec home, despite resident’s protests.

As many as 46 trucks staged on Stone Canyon, lining up hours before the 9 a.m. legal start time for hauling. A one-week Stop Work order only temporarily blocked the developer from illegal hauling. Last Friday residents’ videoed trucks going to 944 Airole Way beginning at 5:30 p.m.

Koretz’ Planning Deputy Noah Muhlstein responded, “I have spoken to Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety (LADBS) about the ‘illegal’ work on Airole Way. They said if they are not on site to catch them red handed they cannot [sic] enforce them.”

They created the sculpture of an orrery – a model of the solar system that projects through the skylight into the ceiling and forms a sundial on the roof.

The iconic structure meets several other preliminary criterion, however, that the commission unanimously agreed deserves an historic evaluation.

Those criterion include: “It is identified with important events in history, it embodies a distinctive characteristic style, and it represents a notable work and possesses a high degree of aesthetic value.” In addition the property “retains integrity from its period of significance.” The property also “has historic value and is of significant architectural value to the community.” plan for safety, including daily inspections, 30-day permits, 90-day mandatory reviews, detailed haul routes and CHP presence in response to the tragedies on Loma Vista.

The City of Los Angeles, in contrast, lags behind in enforcement of codes that already exist.

“Developers can violate conditions without consequences,” said Fred Rosen, the new president of the Bel Air Homeowners Alliance. “Our councilman and community association have not stepped in, which is why we have created the Bel Air Homeowners Alliance.”

Residents report other violations that include grading without permits, working without permits and speeding through stop signs.

“The City is understaffed and developers take advantage,” he said. “We want to create the proper balance between allowing people to build and a safe, secure community,” he said.

Rosen pointed out that the City considers each project individually. “The City doesn’t review these things as a whole,” he said of the impact of so many enormous projects on the quality of life and infrastructure. “The excavation on Airole Way alone results in 15,000 truck trips,” he said, “and that’s only one development.”

After numerous calls and emails from The Courier, Koretz’ office responded shortly before deadline and refused to answer questions over the phone. They asked for all questions to be emailed.

“Beverly Hills is putting forth a gold standard. We have to see how the City of Los Angeles will respond. Our organization put Koretz on notice of conditions on the hillside. There is real cynicism in the group that he will step up and do the right thing.”

Rosen met with “the highest levels” of LAPD Tuesday to walk the sites and survey violations. “We don’t want to repeat the tragedies of Loma Vista. We don’t want them in Bel Air. We will do whatever it takes with our group’s power, with all the City agencies to make sure it doesn’t happen again,” he said. as Samuel and Diana Hirt, is active in the Jewish community.

Rabbi Mordachai Kirschenbaum of Chabad in the Hills regularly leads a minyan at the home. He found out about the robbery walking up to the couple’s front door the next morning expecting to lead Shabbat services. He had led the evening Shabbat there the night before, leaving the couple’s home at 7:30 p.m.

“They are the nicest, kindest people,” said the rabbi. “Everybody loves them.”

WATER RATES COULD INCREASE BY 2 PERCENT (Continued from page 4)

in 2015, according to the City’s Assistant Director of Finance Noel Marquis.

After raising rates 7 percent two years ago and another 5 percent last year, City staff had previously recommended 3 percent increases each of the next four years, but the City Council determined that could be re-visited on a yearly basis.

Marquis said the City will put about $40 million into the Water Fund in FY 14-15 from all sources of revenue, but that the majority of that will be spent on operating costs such as salary and benefits, chemicals and materials for treating water, contractual obligations with MWD, debt services and Capital Improvement Projects.

After all those expenditures, about $25 million would be remaining, about $23 million of which must be reserved for emergencies, catastrophes and covenant to bond holders.

When all is said and done, Marquis said, the City will have about $3.2 million from the fund available instantly if needed.

Marquis said the two percent increase this year, compared to no increase of the rates, only represents a lit-

that will ripple out to shape their futures.

“Life at Beverly has hopefully given you a sense of direction,” Principal Carter Paysinger told the graduates.

June 6, 2014 | Page 11 tle under $1 million in revenue for the City.

“The 2 percent keeps us whole, keeps us moving forward with a little gain each year,” Marquis said. “To be perfectly honest, we could get by one year without doing it. But then next year this two percent increase would turn into maybe four and a half, or five percent, to catch up.”

The City projects it will pay MWD $11.2 million in 2014, $11.6 million in 2015 and 11.76 million in 2016.

For residents wondering how or when these rate increases will come to an end, Marquis says the answer isn’t an easy one. Water conservation will obviously lead to a lower bill, but higher water utilization means more revenues for the City, which means more money to put toward the fund and possibly take the burden off the taxpayer. Both options have their downsides.

“It’s really a catch-22 because if you conserve too much, you need to raise your rates to cover fixed costs. The flipside is if you use a lot more water, you get into a situation where you have to start examining finding more storage capacity and things like that,” Marquis said.

Marquis said the matter will likely come before the City Council sometime this month.

Paysinger cited life skills such as discipline, time-management, and responsibility as foundational to being successful in life; and, perhaps most importantly, trusting in yourself.

Congratulations to the BHHS Class of 2014!

Singer Natalia Safran Gets Film Play, Hosts Kurt Lowens, Who Inspired Sharon Farber’s Bestemming, To Narrate Work In Free Concert Music Benefit For At-Risk Students After the unconventional, yet successful funding and release of her debut album, High Noon, resident singer/songwriter Natalia Safran, is seeing success—with her songs in film scores and a burgeoning music career.

Safran, a model, actress and co-owner of Safran Productions (Hours, The Conjuring with her husband Peter Safran), “always loved music and has been singing as long as I can remember.” Trained in opera, she was convinced to record some songs

by her partnerin-music and brother, Mikolaj Mick Jaroszyk.

With an artist profile on the website, Sellaband, akin to Kickstarter, they started collecting money and fans. With a minimum $10 investment (for one CD) fans could invest as much as they wanted. The album rose to the top and they soon had the $50,000 they need to record. “The beauty is, that the site gives acts direct access to fans,” says Safran. She heard from fans from the U.S., Europe, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa.

Say Goodbye, already part of the score for the thriller Mindscape is featured in the new horror film Anna, starting Mark Strong, Taissa Farmiga and Brian Cox, that opens today.

And Safran is already giving back. On Wednesday she hosts a benefit for Music Unites, (www.musicunites.org) a national charity working to raise academic and lifetime achievement for atrisk public school students through the support and creation of music education partnership and programs.

“Empower, Inspire, Unite Kids Through Music” at her home will feature special performances by the Music Unites Jazz Ensemble, The Beginners, Roc Nation Scavenger Hunt, with special guests, DJ Skee, Principal Jons and Renee Cobb.

Farrah Fawcett Foundation Launches Fight Against HPV And Its Cancers

By John L. Seitz It was a medical subject that for years was thought to be strictly taboo—one nobody ever seemed to want to talk about.

However, HPV (Human Papillomavirus) and its more than 26,000-associated anal, cervical, throat, head and neck cancers occurring each year, is very real and has finally been brought it to the fore. The reason: some 79 million Americans are estimated to already be infected with HPV with 14-million more added to those rolls annually.

Among those actively promoting awareness in fighting the spread of HPV and its related Alana Stewart (left) and Dr. Lawrence Piro insist cancers is the Beverly Hillsthe most effective way to fight HPV early on is for based Farrah Fawcett Foundation boys and girls 11-12 to be vaccinated.

receive Gardasil or Cervarix vaccinations.

“These vaccines only require as total of three shots but are extremely safe,” assured Dr. Piro, who warned the vaccine rate in the U.S. is among the lowest of all developed countries with only 33-percent of girls and 7-percent of boys having received it. Both explained that it is extremely easy to contract HPV and, therefore, become at risk for the various HPV-related cancers. Many already affected individuals are unaware they carry the disease.

Dr. Piro further pointed out that current vaccines have proven effective in preventing HPV infections in unexposed individuals, but don’t necessarily protect those already-infected.

“HPV is a critical problem facing the population and is only going to get worse unless we can get people educated about it—and fast,” said Stewart, who has run the foundation for several years. (It’s original inception by Farrah Fawcett was in 2006.)

“Farrah was fully committed to the struggle against anal cancer which took her own life and other lesser-researched cancers. We are committed to carrying out her legacy through public awareness, prevention and by sponsoring and encouraging cutting-edge research.”

On Getting An 8-Year-Old Over The ‘Back-To-School’ Blues Q. Dear Dr. Fran: I am a single dad. Each September my now 8-year-old son gets anxious about going back to school after summer break.

What can I do to help him make a smoother transition this fall?

Jonathan B. A. Dear Jonathan: Now is an excellent time to ask your question. Advance preparation leads to prevention worth a pound of cure. As summer winds down, back-to-school anxieties are in high gear.

After months of playing, vacationing and spending time at home, it’s completely natural for a young child’s nerves to be on overdrive as the first day of class approaches.

Here are my five tips for parents on helping their children overcome the back-to-school blues while seamlessly easing into the school year.

• Implement a regular bed time and routine 10 days before school starts. This will help your child’s body get into the groove of winding down and waking up at an earlier hour. When school begins, your child’s body, energy and focus will be prepared for school’s physical and mental expectations and demands.

• Talk with your child about what to expect.

Find out their grade level’s schedule. For example: “First, your class will gather on the yard and all the children will say the flag salute, then you will walk to your new classroom,” and so forth.

Include talking about feelings. You might say something like: “You may feel excited or even a little nervous or scared. Those are natural feelings that everyone feels on their first day at school or in a new job.” You want to normalize the experience.

• Include your child in shopping for school supplies. Encourage him to choose his own backpack and lunchbox. Make it personal and specific to your child.

• Visit the school campus with your child before school resumes. If possible, allow her to see her new classroom and play in the schoolyard. Familiarity breeds comfort.

Dr. Fran Walfish Answers Your Questions • Arrange play dates with two or three of your child’s

classmates. Ask the principal for a class roster with contact numbers. If your child can make one or two friends before school starts, he will be so much happier to go to school. This is a sure antidote to school loneliness and feelings of isolation.

In a room packed with residents, Brown read through the recommendations explaining that, “everything was on the table.” A discussion followed as residents chimed in on what they liked and what they didn’t like about the recommendations, such as designated hauling routes, frequent permit renewal, vigorous inspections and weight restrictions.

Brown recommended compression brakes for heavy haul vehicles, despite the noise, and residents agreed.

Smaller trucks, traffic control officers, signage and strict weight limits on construction vehicles were also recommended.

New proposals included off-site parking for construction crews, with 2-3 parking passes per project. Crews would shuttle in to job sites to minimize traffic and parking impacts. He recommended license plate recognition cameras at the en-

trances to determine if trucks are using the streets to pass through in violation of code restrictions. Another recommendation was to create only northbound haul routes for loaded trucks, prohibiting the downhill routes that took the lives of two LAPD officers.

Strategic placement of stop signs, rumble strips, chicanes, and striping could “narrow” streets to slow traffic, as well.

Brown also recommended having the area declared a construction zone to double fines for violations.

Author/entrepreneur Marianne Williamson was fourth with 12.9-percent, public radio host Matt Miller was fifth with 12 percent and Republican Lily Gilani finished sixth with 7percent of the vote.

The 74-year-old Waxmanhas held the seat since 1975.

In the race to replace Zev Yaroslavsky on the L.A. County Board of Supervisors, former state Sen. Sheila Kuehl will take on Bobby Shriver in a November runoff.

Kuehl gained the most

votes in Tuesday’s election, but was short of the 50-percent needed to avoid a runoff with Shriver.

Long Beach Police Chief Jim McDonnell narrowly missed out on the number of votes needed to avoid a runoff, meaning he will go into a November runoff against former Undersheriff Paul Tanaka.

McDonnell was the only outsider among the seven candidates for L.A. County Sheriff.

The department has been under fire over the management of the jail system -- leading to federal indictments.

The Courier endorsed Lieu, Kuehl and McDonnell.

In Beverly Hills, Carr received 377 votes to Lieu’s 220.

Beverly Hills overwhelmingly supported McDonnell with 840 votes – Tanaka received 176.

In the Supervisor race, Beverly Hills supported Kuehl with 527 votes to Shriver’s 469.

SCHOOL IS FUN! Milken Community Schools Wins CIF-Southern Section Shake For Sportsmanship Award A Special Supplement

Milken Community Schools has been recognized for outstanding character and sportsmanship as the recipient of the 32nd annual Kenny Fagans California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) Southern Section “Shake for Sportsmanship” award for the 20132014 school year.

Award recipients are chosen by member schools in their league based on the criteria of participation, enthusiasm, behavior at home and away games, and treatment of opponents and contest officials. Milken competes in the CIF Gold Coast League Delphic Division.

Says Milken athletic director,

Barbara Iversen, “Our athletic administration is so proud of our athletes, coaches and parents for winning the CIF Sportsmanship award this year.

We really stand by our mission statement to groom our student athletes to have sharp minds, kind hearts, and generous souls. They learn to win with humility and lose with grace.”

Senior Sammy Lawrence accepted the award on behalf of Milken at Dodger Stadium before the Dodgers game against the Cincinnati Reds last month.

“It is an honor and a privilege that the Gold Coast League is awarding Milken Community Schools the Gold

Coast League spor tsmanship award. We take our commitment to sportsmanship seriously, which is important as that carries over to each student's approach to life outside of spor ts,” says Lawrence.

As a grades 7-12 college preparator y institution, Milken Community Schools is one of the largest Jewish, independent, coeducational schools in the country.

The school offers rigorous academic exploration and intellectual inquiry built on a foundation of spiritual and ethical practice.

ASTROLOGY

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 6). You give of yourself constantly.

Downtime alone is a positive thing, and use it well. Delve into your own unique psyche. You’re fascinating.

The more you know and love yourself the more you have to offer the world. July features a big purchase.

The family dynamic changes for the better in September. Aries and Libra people adore you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’re emotionally ambitious and filled with courage. It’s the perfect time to pick the issue looming largest in your mind and work on it.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). If you can do a little, do it. It will turn out to be not only better than nothing, but also what inspires and motivates others. You’ll be surprised at who is paying attention.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Nobody is chasing you, so why are you running? Stop. There was a reason you split, but that reason no longer applies. Re-evaluate. There’s something you’d rather be doing than bolting around at top speed.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). It’s better to be social and open-minded than to guard your ideas too closely. So throw your ideas out there. You won’t be sure of how big or small they are until you share and get feedback.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Each story you hear will have a bit of learning inside for you, and the same goes for the stories you tell. This is your favorite way to absorb and process the beautiful world you live in.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Paying homage to other worlds is both respectful and enjoyable. Sure, you don’t belong there permanently. But you applaud and honor another person’s world by participating in it.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

The project you used to approach with sheer will you now approach with intelligence. Is there a smarter way? And here’s an even better question: Is there a wiser way?

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

Look for opportunities to bond.

Small interactions will pay off in ways you might not have considered, and more significant or formal exchanges will have an even more profound impact.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

Coming and going are the same. It’s important to finish strong as it is to start strong. There may be some nervous energy throughout the day, try to channel it toward creating a happy ending or a new beginning.

PISCES (Feb. 19-Mar. 20). Grudges are heavy. Holding on to them makes your way cumbersome. Your heart will be lightest when you honestly can say that there is no one you blame, despise or wish ill.

ARIES (Mar. 21-Apr. 19). The environment isn’t what you said you wanted, but there’s a hidden greatness in it. If you can find things to appreciate in this and articulate that appreciation well, you will come out of this a winner.

TAURUS (Apr. 20-May 20). Lately, you wonder if your’e on the best eating program. Some adjustments could improve your health, but which way would be best? Start the experimental process.

DATE OF SALE: 06/19/2014 TIME OF SALE: 10:00 AM PLACE OF SALE: BEHIND THE FOUNTAIN LOCATED IN CIVIC CENTER PLAZA, 400 CIVIC CENTER PLAZA, POMONA CA. STREET ADDRESS and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 165 NORTH SWALL DRIVE #105, BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA 90211 APN#: 4335029-108 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said note(s), advances, under the terms of said Deed of Trust, fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is $514,154.38.

The beneficiary under said Deed of Trust heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a written Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in

the county where the real property is located.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 916-9390772 for information regarding the trustee's sale or visit this Internet Web site www.nationwideposting.com for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case 20130202200102.

Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

Chairman Paula Kent Meehan President & Publisher Marcia Wilson Hobbs ******

Senior Editor John L. Seitz Special Sections Editor Stephen P. Simmons ****** Founding Publisher March Schwartz (Publisher 1965-2004) Clifton S. Smith, Jr. (Publisher 2004-2014)

Rabbi Jacob Pressman Rabbi Jack is taking the week off. His column will return shortly.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

The front page of The Courier says it all. Metro continues to do whatever it wants. From unabated 8 p.m.- 6 a.m. construction to tunneling under BHHS to possibly opening a retail outlet on Rodeo The Courier is proud to be a Education Partner to sell miniature trains and buses, Metro wins.

I recall the cheers and huzzahs when we were told that the great Sen. Joe Lieberman and his law firm were going to champion the BHUSD's cause. Is he still on board? Does he even know he's on board? Certainly the judge's ruling appears to say that our side forgot to show up in court. Do phrases like “much information relied upon by Metro was simply incorrect” mean that the information was false-or that it was a lie- or did they lie- or did they perjure themselves- or what damn it!?

Does the City believe it was denied due process or was it denied due process because.......How sad and tragic an issue so critical to Tuesday's primary results are in and what was the big surprise–the shockingly low voter the future and well being of our wonderful City appears to be in the hands of those who come to gun fights with rubber knives. turnout.

Robert Block Generally the Los Angeles turnout was one of the lowest in history–only 12.4-percent of registered voters actually made the effort to put a stamp on an absentee ballot. Sadly, the well-heeled, well-educated, compassionate, and generous residents of Beverly Hills turnout was only a few percentage points higher – 16.2-percent – which translates to 3,520 voters. How could that be you may ask? It has certainly been a conversation in our newsroom today.

Could it be the lack of competition in contested races? Hardly – there were 18 candidates vying to replace Congressman Henry Waxman. There were 8 candidates to replace Los Angeles Supervisor Zev Yaroslavsky, and 7 candidates to replace Los Angeles County Sheriff Lee Baca – all of whom served honorably for decades, so the winners have a fairly good guarantee of job security. In our newsroom, we are scratching our heads that a fundamental duty of citizenship has been so roundly ignored and hope you will enlighten us through your letters to the Editor.

The Courier has always taken seriously its role as the watchdog of government, but always felt we were in partnership with you in the search for transparent, efficient, cost effective, and responsive government. We try to do our part with articles explaining issues, sometimes criticizing and sometimes laying out alternatives. But it is you who implement by casting your ballot, you are the foundation of democracy–I sincerely hope you will consider your role.

We congratulate those we endorsed–Ted Lieu, Sheila Kuehl, and Jim McDonnell–on their victories. We also note that Beverly Hills' resident Elan Carr was leading the pack in his race. We wish them them all good luck in the next round.

From The Publisher MARCIA WILSON HOBBS

Not knowing the difference between a jack and a lug wrench or where the spare tire is located in my car has always Cartoon for The Courier by Janet Salter stood in the way of my changing a flat tire. The prospect of receiving a fatal jolt of electricity has prevented me from changing a shattered light bulb.

In this regard, there is nothing more compelling than the age old debate over what kind 05/19 400 S. Palm Dr. ($250) 05/19 400 S. Rexford Dr. ($90) 05/25 800 N.
