The OCFA Board of Directors have appointed Brian Fennessy to become the Fire Chief of the Orange County Fire Authority. “It is with great pride that the OCFA Board of Directors announce the appointment of Chief Brian Fennessy to the position of Chief of the Orange County Fire Authority said Ed Sachs, Chair of the OCFA Board of Directors.

The OCFA Board of Directors, which includes 23 member cities and the unincorporated areas of the County, are confident that Chief Fennessy will be a great asset to the citizens of Orange County,” Chief Fennessy will effectively begin his duties on April 16, taking over for Patrick McIntosh, who has been serving as interim Fire Chief since September 2017 and ends his service on March 16, 2018. OCFA Assistant Chief Dave Anderson will

Have you been watching the snow pile up outside? Are the gray, cold days wearing you down and making you count the minutes until blue skies and sunshine are the norm? You’re not alone. As much fun as you can have sledding, building snowmen or donning a fashionable scarf, most people at this time of the year start dreaming of sun-filled beaches, flipflops and shorts. No wonder spring break is so popular. Whether you want to bring your family along, get away with a few friends or explore some new, tropical destination, packing up and taking off on an unforgettable spring break vacation is easier and more affordable than you may think. From finding deals to getting there, here is your sixstep guide to a perfect spring break. 1. Get everyone involved. Unless you’re planning a surprise vacation for someone, you want to be sure everyone who is going weighs in and has a say. This is especially important if you’re going on a family trip. Giving your kids the chance to participate in planning and decision-making can help them feel more invested in the trip. For example, while the adults might choose the destination and accommodations, let the kids pick a couple activities to book in advance. Page 4
This will lead to a better experience for everyone. 2. Book early. We’ve all heard the mantra “earlier is better” and generally, that’s true for booking airfare. According to a recent report from Expedia and the Airlines Reporting Corporation, for travel originating in the U.S., you should aim to buy tickets at least 30 days in advance. In other words: You should probably book your spring vacation now. 3. Avoid peak travel times. If you have flexibility in terms of your travel dates, make sure you compare prices for different departure windows. Often spring break travel can have an impact on prices, and leaving a week or two earlier or later can save you money. The same applies for travel during and around the Easter holiday (April 1). Use a site like Expedia.com, which will compare rates from all airlines and often provide suggestions for alternate travel dates that yield lower fares. 4. Bundle to save. Always buy your plane ticket and hotel room together. Why? Because 1) it’s convenient and saves you time and 2) you can save some serious money when you do so. For instance, those who use the popular travel website Expedia to book their vacations save an
The Ladera Ranch News
average of $600 when they bundle their flights and hotel rooms together. Oftentimes, when going to popular resort destinations like Los Cabos or Riviera Maya, the savings are even better, so don’t leave that money on the table. 5. Fly on the right day. As many savvy travelers know, it takes a multipronged approach to find the best deals. Along with booking early and bundling, when you travel plays a big role in the price you pay. According to the same report from Expedia and ARC, booking on a Sunday often yielded the lowest average ticket prices for both economy and premium travel. Furthermore, depending on the
itinerary, travelers departing on Friday may score a lower price. 6. Pack only the essentials. The beautiful thing about a beach vacation is the ability to pack light. Buy your sunscreen once you get to your destination, and opt for flip-flops and lightweight clothing that will all fit in a carry-on bag. Not only will this make life easier when you go to and from the airport, but you’ll save on checked baggage fees as well. An unforgettable spring break vacation for you and your family is more affordable than you think. So stop dreaming and start planning! Sunshine and sand are just a few clicks away! - (BPT)

Pacific Symphony Makes Carnegie Hall Debut in Philip Glass Program Featuring New York Premiere of Orchestra Co-Commission “The Passion of Ramakrishna,” April 21
Pacific Symphony, led by Music Director Carl St.Clair, makes its Carnegie Hall debut in the concluding program of the venue’s seasonlong celebration of the music of Philip Glass. The program explores the influence of Ravi Shankar and Indian aesthetics on Mr. Glass and features the New York premiere of his The Passion of Ramakrishna, a Pacific Symphony co-commission for chorus, soloists, and orchestra that was given its world premiere by Pacific Symphony in 2006. The Pacific Chorale, which sang in the world premiere, will join Pacific Symphony for the performance at Carnegie Hall. The program also includes “Meetings Along the Edge” from Glass/Shankar collaboration Passages and Shankar’s Third Sitar Concerto, featuring the composer’s daughter Anoushka Shankar as soloist. Philip Glass is Carnegie Hall’s 2017-2018 Richard and Barbara Debs Composer’s Chair. The performance takes place at Carnegie Hall’s Stern Auditorium on Saturday, April 21, at 8:00 p.m. Tickets priced $33 to $95 are available from Carnegie Hall by phone at (212) 2477800, online at carnegiehall.org, or in person at the box office. Pacific Symphony was invited to perform by Mr. Glass and Carnegie Hall after decades of championing the composer’s music in Orange County under Mr. St.Clair. The orchestra’s most significant collaboration with Mr. Glass has been The Passion of Ramakrishna, co-commissioned with the Nashville Symphony. The 2006 world premiere of the work by Pacific Symphony and the Pacific Chorale under Mr. St.Clair was part of the opening ceremonies for the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall, where Pacific Symphony is the resident orchestra. The work was revived and recorded live during Pacific Symphony’s 2011 American
Composers Festival, which was dedicated to Mr. Glass and—like the Carnegie Hall program—explored the influence of India’s music and philosophy on his style and artistic thought. The Passion of Ramakrishna is an oratorio-style composition whose namesake, Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa (1836-86), was a revered Bengali mystic and yogi who played a key role in shaping the modern Indian consciousness. As Mr. Glass states in his liner notes for Pacific Symphony’s recording: It would be hard to overestimate the impact that the life, presence and teaching of Sri Ramakrishna had on the formation of the modern India we know today. It was as if the sleeping giant of Indian culture and spirituality—certainly one of the foremost cultures of the ancient world—had been re-awakened and empowered to take its rightful place in modern times. … It is hard to imagine the emergence of India on the world stage without the spark that was provided by Ramakrishna’s brilliance. Perhaps, some may doubt that India—the most populous democracy of our time, brimming with vitality and creativity—could owe so much to one saintly man, long gone, who lived a life of such utter simplicity. Yet I believe that is exactly the case. It has been said that when a great man dies, it is as if all of humanity—and the whole world, for that matter—were witnessing a beautiful, timeless sunset. At that moment “the great matter of life and death” is revealed, if not explained and understood. By bearing witness to that event, perhaps we understand a little better our own mortality, its limits and possibilities. The Passion of Ramakrishna is meant to recount, in this highly abbreviated work, his suffering, death and transfiguration as they took place during the last few
months of his life. The work’s text is drawn from The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna, the principal source for Ramakrishna’s teachings translated into English. To hear Pacific Symphony’s recording on Spotify, click here. The first half of the Carnegie Hall program relates directly to Mr. Glass’s artistic relationship with sitarist Ravi Shankar (1920-2012). The evening opens with “Meetings Along the Edge” from Passages, a 1990 Glass/ Shankar collaboration in which each artist wrote arrangements around themes by the other. “Meetings Along the Edge,” the fifth of the six pieces in Passages, features a mixture of themes by both composers. Passages originally appeared on a Glass/Shankar recording for Atlantic
Records, and Pacific Symphony has recorded “Meetings Along the Edge,” available as an iTunes bonus track to The Passion of Ramakrishna album. Ravi Shankar’s daughter Anoushka Shankar, a celebrated sitarist in her own right, joins Mr. St.Clair and Pacific Symphony in her father’s Third Sitar Concerto. Ms. Shankar gave the work’s world premiere in 2009, performing with the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra at Carnegie Hall. This concerto is one of four that Ravi Shankar composed for sitar and orchestra, and Ms. Shankar has performed these works around the world, with orchestras including the Berlin, London, Los Angeles, and New York Philharmonics.

Tesoro High School Varsity wins Cheer National Champs
By Lisa Zylstra Tesoro’s High School Varsity Cheer team has earned the National Championship title at the USANationals Competition in Anaheim. After a successful morning performance, the team advanced to finals with three other teams in the Advanced Super Large Varsity Show Cheer Division. Tesoro’s second performance resulted in a 1st place ranking and a National Champion title for the team, which they last won in 2016. “I am so incredibly proud of this team and their ability to perform as well as they did at Nationals,” said Coach Cris Stuart. “This year has been riddled with illness and injuries which required several fairly last minute changes to our routine. Winning Nationals is a true testament to the commitment these athletes have made to our program including yearround practice and training. A special thanks to our four seniors for their contribution – this is a great way for them to end their HS cheer careers.” The 27-member Varsity team is led by Coach Cris Stuart and Assistant Coach Natalie Hammon.
5 i n g r e d i e n t s f o r a p e r f e c t fa m i l y v a c a t i o n It’s hard to believe it, but the kids who were labeled “millennials” have all grown up and started their own families. As this next generation enters the realm of parenthood, many will be thinking about what they want to do and where they want to go for their family vacation. Needless to say, for a young family planning a vacation, things will be a little different than when mom and dad traveled. Now it’s all about the kids, and making memories together. For those who are looking to get away with the family this year, here are some essential ingredients for making a memorable vacation. 1. Be on the lookout for “firsts.” Parenting is a series of milestones and firsts: first steps, first words, first day of school. When you and your family step off the plane or out of the car, get ready, because there’s going to be a whole lot of firsts, and it might be a little overwhelming! Travel to a destination like Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, where from the first step into the ocean to watching dolphins jump through the waves, you can expect some unforgettable moments. 2. Come as you are. When deciding where to go, pick someplace you can be yourself, where you can relax, experience something new and let the kids be kids. Leave everything else at home and enjoy the easy, laid-back beach-loving lifestyle. South Carolina’s iconic Myrtle Beach boasts over 60 miles of sandy beach, boardwalks, amusement parks and over 1,800 restaurants. With so much to offer, all you need to do is show up! 3. Playing is learning. Parents know that their kids learn best when they’re at play. Vacations are a fantastic opportunity for learning through play. Page 8
Minutes away from the ocean at Myrtle Beach is WonderWorks, an amusement park with over 50,000 square feet of entertainment and education, what they call “edu-tainment.” Here kids can learn about natural disasters, space exploration, art, and tire themselves out playing laser tag, tackling an indoor ropes course and much more. 4. Take a day to go explore. Many parents find that one of the truly rewarding parts of traveling with young kids is that their sense of wonder and discovery is contagious. If you found a beautiful beach-side resort, it can be hard to leave. Take even a half day to explore nearby natural wonders, such as those found at Huntington Beach State
The Ladera Ranch News
Park, and you’ll be rewarded with thousands of secluded acres for you and your family to explore. 5. Enjoy the little things. No matter how well you plan, it’s impossible to anticipate all of the small, intimate moments that make a vacation so memorable. Whether it’s a perfect sunset, a newly built sand castle or a bucket full of sand dollars, there are hundreds of little details that await, so be ready! You can choose whatever ingredients you want to put into your next family vacation - sunshine, blue sky, an ocean, sand beaches, plenty of diversions. It only takes a few of these to make memories that will last a lifetime. - (BPT)

Spring has sprung: tips for getting outside to play After being cooped up during one of the l winter, families are eager for warmer weather so they can get outside and play. Research shows that play is an important part of children’s physical, emotional and intellectual development. With spring upon us, now is a great time to make play and outside activity part of your family’s regular routine. Here are some ideas: * Remember, every little bit helps Active play is an important part of keeping families happy and healthy. In fact, childhood obesity increases 29 percent in neighborhoods without a park or playground, according to KaBOOM!, a national non-profit dedicated to ensuring that all children get the balance of active play they need. Instead of driving to your local playground or park, walk or bike, to get in an extra dose of activity. Every little bit helps in keeping your kids growing up strong - physically, emotionally and intellectually. * Keep imagination at the forefront Kids can do anything they put their minds to, and they can keep themselves busy for hours with just their imaginations. Bring that power to your next outdoor adventure by creating a make-believe obstacle course based on their favorite book or movie at your local play area. Get
other kids involved and become the MVP of playtime. * Pledge to be active Staying active on a consistent basis is key to achieving a balanced lifestyle. Let’s Play, a community partnership led by Dr Pepper Snapple Group to get kids and families active, provides a host of tools, places and
inspiration to make play a daily priority. Visit www.LetsPlay.com for a wealth of ideas to incorporate play into your day, and take the Let’s Play Pledge to devote additional playtime each week to your family’s routine. * It’s all about balance Playtime takes a lot of energy, so make sure your kids are armed
with healthy and nutritious nibbles to replenish their growing minds and bodies. Fruits, veggies, applesauce, whole grains and snack-size cheese are great after-play snacks. Make sure kids are also staying hydrated to keep their energy levels up throughout the day.
Renew your look with simple expert style tricks
Spring is the perfect time to renew your look and embrace the easy-breezy feeling of the season. Fortunately, you don’t need to spend hours at the salon or break the bank updating your look. A few expert tips will have you looking as radiant as the spring sunshine so you can turn heads no matter where you go. Expert stylists Teni Panosian and Christine Symonds have created a complete makeup and hair look that is easy to achieve at home with the right tools. “This spring is all about beautiful skin with small pops of color,” says Panosian, YouTube beauty sensation and the voice behind MissMaven. com. “ Beautifully fresh makeup Step 1: Prep your skin with your favorite moisturizer or primer. Then apply a light foundation or BB cream in small circular motions using your brush for an airbrushed effect. Step 2. Apply concealer under the eyes beginning at the inner corner and extending to the outer corner, as well as along the side of your nose. Then, blend out the concealer to create a brightened under-eye area. Step 3. For breakouts or dark spots, dab concealer and use a small stippling motion to blend it out. Then, set it by applying a translucent powder under your eyes and to your T-zone. Step 4. Add warmth by applying bronzer along the hollows of your cheeks, hairline and jawline, and add a pop of pink blush to your cheeks.
Finish the face by adding your favorite highlight powder to the high points of your cheekbones. Step 5. Swipe a peach shadow across your lids up to the crease. Use a blending brush to begin working purple eyeshadow into the outer half of the crease and blend down to the outer corners of the lids. Then, apply a dark brown shadow just at the outer corners of the lids for a little definition. Step 6. Finish with a couple of coats of mascara on the top and bottom lids and a sheer pink gloss on lips. “Complement your new makeup look with soft, effortlessly chic hair,” says celebrity hairstylist Symonds,
who regularly styles red-carpet beauties such as Kaley Cuoco-, Kristen Bell and Ali Larter. “The halfup half-down braided style that I’ve put together has great texture and keeps your hair out of your face on those sunny spring days.” Beautifully fresh hair Step 1: Start by partially blow drying wet hair to remove moisture. Step 2: Finish blow drying with a full round brush, focusing mainly on the ends to create movement. Try a hair brush with cruelty-free synthetic boar hair bristles to create tons of shine. Step 3: Gather the top section of hair and clip it out of the way. Leave enough hair on each side of the head
above the ears to create two small braids. Secure them with an elastic band. Step 4: Drop the top section you previously clipped up and gather all the hair into a low ponytail, leaving out the two side braids. Then bring the two braids together in the back of the head and secure tightly with another small elastic band. Step 5: Undo the low ponytail and the two elastics around the ends of the two small braids (not the one that just secured the braids together). Then pull lightly at the roots of the pulled-back hair on the top of the head to create texture.

OSCAR Wrap Up! Oscar weekend arrived so quickly and left like a whirlwind – especially for me - taking clients to the various parties, red carpets and galas. It was a nonstop star-studded weekend leaving a memorable experience. Let us start at the Wardour Studios Hollywood Stars Gala Academy Awards Oscars Viewing party at the new Beverly Hills Waldorf Astoria. It was perfect weather for an outdoor red carpet with many celebrities in attendance. The theme for this inaugural year “Women in Entertainment” paid tribute to those female filmmakers by showing their support for giving them equal standing within the industry. Walking the red carpet into the luxurious resort were Gretchen Rossi (“OC Housewives”), Jesse Metcalfe (“Desperate Housewives”), Janice Dickinson (“The Janice Dickinson Show”), Jimmy Jean Louis (“Joy”), Melia Kreiling (“The Last Tycoon”, “Tyrant”), Erika Alexander (“Get Out”), 2017 Primetime Emmy Award winner Kim Estes (“Dicks”), 2015-2017 Daytime Emmy Award winner Celeste Fianna (“The Bay”), and many more. On the large screens placed around the room, the show started; Jimmy Kimmel began his opening monologue, those in attendance were seated in the beautiful decorated ballroom with dinner provided by Waldorf Astoria’s superstar chef Jean-George. Celebrities attending, as well as others, also received, collectively, over one million units of W1 Coin, the world’s first entertainment backed cryptocurrency, at the Hollywood Stars Gala. www. wardourstudio.com The next party was The City Gala which had a 100-foot outdoor, starstudded red carpet. It was held at Universal Studios in Hollywood where Matthew McConaughey and his wife as well as over 100 celebrities were in attendance. Along with a celebrity poker tournament, a fashion show, live entertainment, dinner, open bar, and a live and online auction hosted by Charity Stars, the night was spectacular as we mingled with celebrities, VIP’s and stars as we found out more about the nine beneficiary charities this event raises money for. The event is for those charities who are at the grass roots level, to help them get started as we all know how hard it is to fund a startup nonprofit. www.citygala.org Inside The Globe Theater, honoree McConaughey received the Inspiration Award, giving a his speech about his work with his foundation “just keep livin” foundation (www.jklivinfoundation.org) was very inspirational as he outlined his involvement and why he and his wife created it. We also were able to preview the trailer of the feature film “Wishman” based on the life of honoree Frank Shankwitz who is the co-founder of Make-A-Wish; who he was given the Hero Award. I was able to chat with Andrew Steele who plays Shankwitz in the movie who told me what an honor it was to portray the man who started it all with just one wish. Christian Ganiere plays Michael the 7-year-old boy with terminal leukemia that inspired Frank to start the Make a Wish Foundation. “It was truly an inspiring evening, as well as being a beautiful celebration of the work founder Ryan Long does throughout the year to prepare our nine beneficiary charities to meet the challenges they face as new entrepreneurs,” said Dale Godboldo, City Gala beneficiary, founder of Project NOW. Last stop of the night was GRIOT Gala Oscar Night After Party: Celebrating Diversity and Inclusion. GRIOT stands for Giving Resources Inspiration and Opportunity to Talent. The inaugural event was held at the restaurant District by Hannah An and honored Casting Director Leah Daniels-Butler and Daphna Ziman, President of Cinémoi North American and founder of Children Uniting Nations for their contributions in the fight for diversity in Hollywood. There was an exciting red carpet hosted with lots of celebrities and media. Inside the restaurant, guests enjoyed a classy Vietnamese cuisine prepared by the 5-star Chef with an open bar sponsored by Marani Vodka, Vault Spirits, and LaVang Wines. Then something funny happen, as the traffic along 3rd street stopped with the arrival of a special guest - “Joe Jackson” – you know – the King of Pop’s dad? The paparazzi went crazy surrounding his black chauffer driven SUV to try and catch his exit from the vehicle and on to the red carpet. Watching from afar, it was fine; however, when I returned to the Hilton Hotel Universal, I decided to sit back and enjoy a cup of hot mint tea and reflect about the evening. Who walks in? Yes, Joe himself – he came in with his entourage, walked right up to me and asked what I was drinking. From there, I was invited to his table where his crew and I talked about family, his son Michael, music and the wonderful evening we just had. It’s all about where you are when opportunity strikes as you never know what magic will happen, especially in Hollywood. Page 12

Two local students honored for their writing skills
On March 9, two St. Junipero Serra Catholic (SJSC) students were recognized at the 19th Annual Chapman University Holocaust Art and Writing Contest awards ceremony for their outstanding writing. Each year, SJSC submits one piece of student art and two student essays from eighth-grade students to the contest. Alexandra Hamm’s essay, titled Justice in the Hands of Humanity, and Davin Maas’s essay, titled Blueprint for a Better Society, were selected as the school’s entries in the writing competition. Alexandra and Davin’s essays were chosen as two of the five finalists in the middle school prose category, and Alexandra’s essay went on to be named the winner. More than two hundred fifty middle and high schools-and some 7,000 students--from more than 30 states and 9 countries participated in this year’s contest. This is not the first time the work of SJSC students has been recognized. Each year, two student essays are forwarded to Chapman University for the final round of judging. This is the fourth year in a row that both essays submitted were selected as finalists and that one of those essays went on to place first or second. All winning writing and art is published on the Chapman University website. To have the writing of two current students recognized in a competition of this scope and caliber is extremely exciting for SJSC. It speaks both
to the quality of the students’ work and to the quality of the school’s writing program. The program gives students a strong foundation that not only serves them well today, but will continue to benefit them throughout their high school years and beyond. Here are the names of past finalists and winners: 2015 (This was the 1st year ever that we had any finalists or winners-and all three of our submissions were finalists!) Mary Botros--finalist, middle school art Caitlin Relvas --finalist, middle school art Cameron Martin-- 1st place, middle school prose 2016 Katrina Botros--finalist, middle school art Ian Staff--finalist, middle school prose Sydney Issa--2nd place, middle school prose 2017 Anthony (Speedy) Laster--finalist, middle school prose Lyndsey Issa--1st place, middle school prose Lillia Velau (St. Serra alum)--1st place, high school prose (JSerra High School) 2018 Davin Maas--finalist, middle school prose Alexandra Hamm--1st place, middle school prose

The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 45 DOWNING STREET, LADERA RANCH AREA, CA 92694 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be made without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the Note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said Note(s), advances if any, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, estimated fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligations secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of this Notice of Trustee’s Sale is estimated to be $728,785.85 (Estimated). However, prepayment premiums, accrued interest and advances will increase this figure prior to sale. Beneficiary’s bid at said sale may include all or part of said amount. In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept a cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the California Financial Code and authorized to do business in California, or other such funds as may be acceptable to the Trustee. In the event tender other than cash is accepted, the Trustee may withhold the issuance of the Trustee’s Deed Upon Sale until funds become available to the payee or endorsee as a matter of right. The property offered for sale excludes all funds held on account by the property receiver, if applicable. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. Notice to Potential Bidders If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a Trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a Trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same Lender may hold more than one mortgage or Deed of Trust on the property. Notice to Property Owner The sale date shown on this Notice of Sale may be postponed one or more times by the Mortgagee, Beneficiary, Trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. 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 HomeSearch.com at 800-7588052 for information regarding the Trustee’s Sale or visit the Internet Web site address www.homesearch.com for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, CA08002332-15-1.

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 In Source Logic at 702-659-7766 for information regarding the Trustee’s Sale or visit the Internet Web site address listed below for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, CA08001150-17-1. 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.

S t o r m y w e a t h e r P r e pa r a t i o n s f o r m o r e r a i n 1. CREATE AN EMERGENCY FAMILY PLAN 2. EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN (RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL) 3. PREPARE A DISASTER SUPPLY KIT 4. SANDBAG CONSTRUCTION 5. SANDBAG SUPPLIERS 6. WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT FEDERAL DISASTER ASSISTANCE AND FEDERAL FLOOD INSURANCE 7. IF AN EVACUATION IS ADVISED Discuss what to do about power outages and personal injuries. Draw a floor plan of your home, and mark an escape route from each room. Locate the main electric fuse box, water service main, and natural gas main. Learn how and when to turn these utilities off. Teach all responsible family members. Keep necessary tools near gas and water shut-off valves. Remember, turn off the utilities only if you suspect the lines are damaged or if you are instructed to do so. If you turn the gas off, you will need a professional to turn it back on. Pick one out-of-state and one local friend or reative for family members to call if separated by disaster (it is often easier to call out-of-state than within the affected area). • Post emergency telephone numbers near telephones. • Teach children how and when to call 911, police and fire. • Teach children how to make long distance telephone calls. • Instruct household members to turn on the radio for emergency information. Pick two meeting places: • A place near your home in case of a fire. • A place in your neighborhood in case you cannot return home, • Learn the safest route from your home or job to high, safe ground in case you have to evacuate in a hurry, and be sure to keep your gas tank full!! • Take a basic first aid and CPR class. • Make at itemize list of personal property, including furnishings, clothing and valuables; photograph your home inside and out, which will help settle insurance claims. Keep photos in a safe deposit box. FOR MORE INFORMATION The federal Emergency Management Agency offers free publications on protecting your home and assembling and emergency kit, 1-800-638-6620. El Niño information is available on the agency’s web site: http://www.fema.gov RESIDENTIAL Losses due to flooding can often be cut dramatically by carrying out an effective pre- planned set of actions. The emergency plan may consist primarily of a checklist of things to be done and a little pre-thinki ng about where contents will be moved, who’s going to help, where things will be stored and so on. Among others, items on the emergency “to do “ list might include: • Moving items to be left in the structure to an upper floor or stacked Page 16
on top of each other to put at least some furniture above flood level. • Throwing curtains and drapes up over rods. • Pulling up and removing carpets and rugs. • Motors to be removed from furnace and other equipment located in the low levels of the house. • Unplug equipment that can’t be moved. • Assemble medicine, heirlooms, valuables and other items to be for taking during evacuation. COMMERCIAL Commercial and industrial sites offer the opportunity and need for more detailed planning and sometimes new construction or other preparations to facilitate putting the plan into action when necessary. This may include such things as: • Preparing electrical equipment for quick disconnect. • Preparing equipment for quick evacuation. • Keeping raw materials and products on pallets for quick removal. • Providing means for opening all necessary doors manually in the event of a power outage. Arranging for transportation when needed. • Arranging for storage space when needed. • Keeping on hand all items needed for rapid cleanup and restoration of production. EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN PREPARE A DISASTER SUPPLY KIT • List of important phone numbers (family, physicians, etc.) • Copy of insurance policy. • Credit cards and cash. • An extra set of car keys. • Inexpensive rabbit-ears television antennas to use when cable goes out. • Special items for infants, elderly or disabled family members. • Extra batteries. • Matches. • Clock (wind-up or batteryoperated). • Blankets or sleeping bags. • Scissors. • Plastic garbage bags. • Map of the area. • Clean change of clothes & rain gear. • A supply of non-perishable packaged or canned food and a non-electric can opener. • A first aid kit and prescription medications. • Flashlights and extra bulbs. • Battery-operated lanterns. (Candles and kerosene lanterns are fire hazards.) • Working fire extinguishers . • Battery-operated radio. • Assemble supplies you might need in an evacuation. Store them in an easy-to-carry container such as a backpack or duffel bag. Put aside in a special box in garage. Keep heat-sensitive items inside home and rotate stock throughout season. Batteries can go in refrigerator. WATER Having an ample supply of clean water is a top priority in an emergency. A normally active person needs to drink at least two quarts of water each day, hot environments can
The Ladera Ranch News
double that amount. Children, nursing mothers and ill people will need even more. You will also need water for food preparation and hygiene. Store a total of at least one-gallon per person, per day. You should store at least a two-week supply of water for each member of our family. If supplies run low, never ration water. Drink the amount you need today, and try to find more for tomorrow. You can minimize the amount of water your body needs by reducing activity and staying cool. Store water in sealed, unbreakable containers. Identify the storage date and replace every six months Sandbags The use of sandbags is a simple, but effective, way to prevent or reduce floodwater damage. Properly filled and placed, sandbags can act as a barrier to divert moving water around instead of through buildings. Sandbag construction does not guarantee a watertight seal, but is satisfactory for use in most situations. Sandbags are also used successfully to prevent overtopping of levied streams and for training current flow to specific areas. Untied sandbags are recommended for most situations. Tied sandbags should only be used for special situations when pre-filling and stockpiling may be required for specific purposes such as filling holes, holding objects in position or to form barriers backedby supportive planks. Tied sandbags are generally easier to handle and to stockpile, however sandbag filling operations can generally best be accomplished at or near the placement site and tying of bags would waste valuable time and effort. If the bags are pre-filled at a distant location, due consideration must be given to transportation vehicles and placement site access. The most commonly use bags are untreated burlap sacks available from feed or hardware stores. Empty bags can be stockpiled for emergency use and will be serviceable for several years if properly stored. Filled bags of earth material will deteriorate quickly. A heavy bodied or sandy soil is most desirable for filling sandbags, but any usable material at or near the site has definite advantages. Course sand could leak out through the weave of the bag (to prevent this double bag the material). Gravely or rocky soils are generally poor
choices because of their permeability characteristics. Sandbag barriers can easily be constructed by two people, as most individuals have the physical capabilities to carry or drag a sandbag weighing approximately 30 pounds the use of sandbags is a simple, but effective, way to prevent or reduce floodwater damage. Properly filled and placed, sandbags can act as a barrier to divert moving water around instead of through buildings. Sandbag construction does not guarantee a watertight seal, but is satisfactory for use in most situations. Sandbags are also used successfully to prevent overtopping of levied streams and for training current flow to specific areas. HOW TO FILL A SANDBAG Filling sandbags is a two-person operation: One member of the team should place the empty bag between or slightly in front of widespread feet with arms extended. The throat of the bag is folded to form a collar and held with the hands in a position that will enable the other team member to empty a rounded shovel full of material into the open end. The person holding the sack should be standing with knees slightly flexed and head and face as far away from the action of the shovel as practical. The shoveler should carefully release the rounded shovel full of soil into the throat of the bag. Haste in this operation can result in undue spillage and added work. The use of safety goggles and gloves is desirable and sometimes necessary. For large-scale operations, filling sandbags can be expedited by using bag holding racks, metal funnels, and power loading equipment. However, the special equipment required is not always available during an emergency. Bags should not be filled more than half full or less than onethird their capacity. PLACEMENT Remove any debris from the area where bags are to be placed. Place the l/2-filled bags lengthwise and parallel to the direction of flow. Fold the open end of the unfilled portion of the bag to form a triangle. (If bed bags are used, flatten or fire the tied end.) Place succeeding bags on the folded or fired portion of the previous bag and stamp into place to eliminate voids and form a tight seal.
