Create Halloween Memories That Will Last a Lifetime Vampires, werewolves and monsters - oh my! No, it’s not the latest Hollywood blockbuster. It’s Halloween. As little ghouls and goblins prepare to emerge into the night to claim their bounty of treats, it’s important to think about ways to help kids enjoy this special evening and create memories that will last for years to come. And, though candy is certainly the treat du jour during Halloween, why not share a spooky and sweet treat with the special kids in your life that will last a lifetime - and won’t rot their little teeth? This Halloween, parents, grandparents and their little ghosts and goblins can participate in a new Halloween activity that can be re-lived every day of the year - reading and recording their voices in Hallmark’s new Recordable Storybook “We’re Not Scared of Anything.” “Research has shown that adults are looking for more ways to spend quality time with the kids in their lives” said Jonathan Bowyer, retail product manager for Hallmark. “Holidays, such as Halloween, are perfect opportunities for families to get together, and Hallmark Recordable Storybooks can help create holiday memories that last forever.” Hallmark Recordable Storybooks

feature an exclusive voice capture technology that records the reader’s voice, which is then captured within the pages of book. When a page is turned, the Recordable Storyboo k automatically plays the text on that page in the reader’s voice. The recording lasts for the life of the Recordable Storybook, and children who “read” the books can listen to their mom, dad, grandparent, aunt, uncle or friend read to them - anytime and anywhere. Most titles in the Recordable Storybook line make great gifts to kids from grown-ups who cannot be present for story time (due to distance or other circumstances). But “We’re Not Scared of Anything,” one of Hallmark’s newest Recordable Storybooks, is intended for two readers - one adult and one child - to read and record together. Though Halloween’s thrills and chills are all in good fun, kids may still be a little scared of things that go bump in the night once the costumes are put away and the candy is all gone. “We’re Not Scared of Anything” is designed to help address and calm these fears by putting the child in the shoes of a pint-sized monster. In the story, Little Monster, whose part is recorded by a child, finds plenty

to be scared of as bedtime approaches. A “monster” under the bed and spooky things that creep make Little Monster too scared to sleep. Luckily, Big Monster, whose part is recorded by an adult, is there to reassure Little Monster that the scary things really aren’t so scary after all. Try recording this story together for a unique bonding experience that will encourage a special child in your life and ease his or her nighttime fears in a fun and playful way. This unique reading experience, perfect for Halloween, can leave kids with a safety blanket of your voice. “We’re Not Scared of Anything” also makes a great Halloween gift alternative for health-conscious parents who want to avoid a trick-ortreating sugar overload, but still give their children something to enjoy. In addition to this spooky delight, eleven other Hallmark Recordable Storybook titles currently are available in Hallmark Gold Crown stores nationwide. The collection features classics nursery rhymes, such as “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star;”

heartwarming original stories, like “All The Ways I Love You;” and, holiday titles, including “Frosty the Snowman” and “The Night Before Christmas.” For more information about Hallmark’s “We’re Not Scared of Anything” Recordable Storybook and other titles in the collection, visit http://www.hallmark.com/recordablestorybooks/

Ensure a Fun and Safe Howl-O-Ween for Your Pet Halloween isn’t just for kids. Pets are joining the festivities too by dressing up in fabulous costumes. But in addition to picking out a costume, pet parents should keep their pet’s safety in mind as well. Here are some safety tips and costume ideas to help ensure you and your pet have a safe and fun holiday. Keep them happy. “Before having pets join in the Halloween fun, it’s important to assess whether your pet will be comfortable participating, or if the festivities will cause undue stress,” says Dr. Simon Starkey, Pet Care Expert at PetSmart. “If you have a young or senior pet, or one that is shy around others, it’s better to give them a quiet space away from all the activity where they’ll feel more comfortable.” Make sure treats are pet friendly. With so many Halloween treats about the home, you want to make sure your dog doesn’t accidentally consume something that could be harmful. Chocolate is particularly tempting for pets, but it can also make them seriously ill. Instead, choose a pet friendly treat to celebrate, such as GREENIES Dental Chews, which also keep pets’ teeth clean and their breath scare-free.

Keep them safe. If you plan to take your dog around the neighborhood in the evening, make sure they’re properly outfitted. Reflective leashes, collars and ID tags with flashing lights are essential accessories for any pet Halloween costume. Halloween Pet Fun “Choosing a costume for your pet is like choosing a costume for yourself – you want something that reflects your or your pet’s personality,” says author and entertainment expert Kimberly Schlegel Whitman. Here are a few favorites exclusively available at PetSmart: Make your pet a star. If you fancy your pet a rock star, consider dressing them for the part. Check out the Bret Michaels Pets Rock wig. With blonde tresses and a bandana to top it off, your pet will be ready to rock and roll. Classic costumes are spooktacular. For a fantastic costume that also offers safety features, check out the glow-in-the-dark Martha Stewart Pets Black Halloween Skeleton costume. Or, if you love retro, outfit your pet in the Top Paw Plush Sock Monkey costume, which is sure to evoke some “oohs” and “aahs” from witches, goblins, zombies and monsters of all ages.

Halloween Pets Shine No matter what costume you choose, your pet is sure to look their best. Pet parents can show off their frighteningly adorable pets in costume at PetSmart’s annual Howl-O-Ween pet parade on October 20 at your local store or online via the Monster Cute Photo Contest Powered by GREENIES. Submit your

pet’s Monster Cute photo at www. facebook.com/PetSmart between September 10 and October 21 for a chance to win the grand prize, which is valued at more than $10,000. For more tips on pet safety as well as Halloween costumes and events, visit your local PetSmart or www.PetSmart. com.

No tricks here: Treat guests to a hair-raising Halloween experience Whether prepping for trick-ortreaters or hosting a party fit for Frankenstein, turning your home into a haunted house can be fun and easy. With these tips, before you know it, your home will be transformed into the spookiest house on the block. * Create terrifying tombstones. Set the stage before trick-or-treaters even hit the front door. Use wood, cardboard or thick Styrofoam to create tombstones that you can put in your front yard. After cutting out the desired shape, use a matte gray spray paint to cover the surface, and then use black paint to write creative epitaphs such as “Dare to Disturb” or “Happy Haunting.” * Get creative with pumpkins. Everyone enjoys a good jack-olantern, but why not choose to think

outside the box when decorating with pumpkins this year? Instead of carving, try spray painting or using your favorite Halloween candy to decorate pumpkins in fun, spooky patterns. Plus, this is a project that even the littlest witch can enjoy. * Download a haunted playlist. Nothing is quite as spooky as the sound of doors creaking or ghosts shrieking. Put together a haunted playlist that you can listen to while guests arrive, or stick speakers near an open window to entice the nearby trick-or-treaters to stop by for some candy. * Serve spine-chilling treats. Use your free time on Halloween to make these simple but yummy treats designed to look like spiders. Serve them when guests arrive to kick-off the scary festivities. Reese’s(R) Peanut Butter Pumpkin Spiders (6 Servings) Ingredients: 6 Reese’s (R) Peanut Butter Pumpkins 1/4 cup Hershey’s (R) Milk Chocolate Chips Large pretzel twists (2 -1/2 to 3 inches)

The Newport News

12 yellow Reese’s Pieces (R) Candies Directions: Line tray or cookie sheet with wax paper. Remove wrappers from peanut butter pumpkins and place alongside each other on tray leaving 1 inch of space between each peanut butter pumpkin. For each spider, cut 8 matching curved sections from pretzels which will form the legs. Set aside remaining pretzels pieces. Place milk chocolate chips in small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at medium 30 seconds; stir. If necessary,

microwave at medium an additional 10 seconds at a time, stirring after each heating, until chips are melted and smooth when stirred. Transfer to small heavy duty plastic food storage bag. Cut off one corner of bag about 1/4 inch from the tip. Attach pretzel legs and yellow candy “eyes” to spider with melted chocolate; place dot of melted chocolate on each eye. Allow chocolate to set before moving spiders. For more wickedly delicious recipes, visit CelebratewithHersheys. com.

Phantasmically Fun and Frightfully Affordable! Just when you thought it was safe to go backstage…The Festival of Arts and Pageant of the Masters brings a “monster” of a good time to Laguna Beach! Reviving an event from years past, Pageant of the Masters Director Diane Challis Davy presents the Pageant of the Monsters, transforming the Pageant’s backstage into a Haunted House with an artistic twist. The event will take place on October 25, 26, 27 and 31 at the Festival of Arts, from 6 9:30pm. This is the 4th presentation of Pageant of the Monsters. Davy originated the haunted house idea in 1996, it was repeated in 1997 and then again in 2007. This year, the Pageant of the Masters’ creative team of artists and technicians has reunited to resurrect the acclaimed Halloween Haunted House as part of the Pageant of the Masters 80th Anniversary celebration.

Davy reveals, “Over 100 bewitched Pageant of the Masters volunteers will transform into the ghostly passengers of a doomed luxury liner plus other creepy creatures.” She continued, “It’s not your usual haunted house. Guests will be directed through the amphitheater, Pageant workshops and stage, which have been transformed into a series of eerie artistically presented vignettes. It will be a little scary and spooky, but lots of fun for the whole family.” In addition to the haunted house, the Festival of Arts grounds will be filled with ghoulish tricks and treats including: Fortune Tellers Alien Autopsy Pumpkin Printmaking Mask Making Demented Chef Side Show Wandering Zombies Live Music Local art organizations will host

additional activities including spooky face painting with Sawdust Art Festival, ghoulish crafty fun with Art-A-Fair, plus other “spook-tacular” surprises with the Laguna Playhouse. So for those looking for something a little different besides the typical costume party or amusement park haunt, the Pageant of the Monsters is frightfully affordable and offers festivities for everyone to enjoy. ADMISSION & LOCATION Tickets are $15 for adults and $10 for children 12 and under (not recommended for children under 5). Tickets are available online at www.PageantTickets.com or by phone 800-487-3378. No guests in costumes please. On October 31, children 12 and under may come in costume. The event will take place at Festival of Arts, 650 Laguna Canyon Road, Laguna Beach, CA 92651.

Halloween Trick-or-Treating Safety Tips Kids look forward to Halloween for many reasons. They like the dressing up in costumes but the mostly they like it for the candy and treats! Who wouldn’t? Even some adults still like to go our trick or treating. It makes them feel young and happy again. While this section sticks mainly to guidelines for kids, they are just as useful for adults. Some parents like to take first dibs on some of the candy that the kids have picked up during the night. It’s their reward for taking them around from house to house! We suggest that you watch the candy intake when you all get home, too much at one time can lead to stomach aches and indigestion. That includes mom and dad as well! Make your child’s Halloween a memorable holiday and they’ll have good memories that last a lifetime! If you are taking your kids out for the night, dress up as well. Mom and dad should get into Halloween as much as the kids do! Trick or Treating should be one of the great adventures of Halloween for kids! They can get dressed in scary costumes and go door to door, begging “Tricks or Treats!” from neighbors or at the local mall. Lots

of small towns have a Halloween Safe Night at the community center or school so kids can Trickor-Treat safely but going door to door is the stuff of childhood memories! It should be a fun time, without trouble and pain, so following some easy tips can keep your child safe every Halloween. Children should always go out trick or treating accompanied by a responsible adult. If you have a group of kids going, the parents should choose two or three of them to go along and keep an eye on things. Plan a safe route so parents know where their older kids will be at all times. Set a time for their return home. Make sure that your child is old enough and responsible enough to go out by themselves. Make sure that they have a cell phone. Let your children know not to cut through back alleys and fields if they are out alone. Make sure they know to stay in populated areas and not to go off the beaten track. Let them know

to stay in well lighted areas with lots of people around. Explain to them why it can be dangerous for kids not to do this. If they are going out alone, they are old enough to know what can happen to them in a bad situation and how to stop it from happening. Instruct your children not to eat any treats until they bring them home to be examined by you. This way you can check for any problem candy and get the pick of the best stuff! Instruct your child to never go into

the home of a stranger or get into their car. Explain why this is not a god idea and what to do if someone approaches them and tries to talk to them. Make sure your child carries a flashlight, glow stick or has reflective tape on their costume to make them more visible to cars. Let them know that they should stay together as a group if going out to Trick or Treat without an adult.

25 Great Halloween Decorating Ideas for Ghoulish Fun Spook Your Guests and Get in the Halloween Spirit

By Slate Stone Halloween is a time to get creative. It is a time to have fun and make people smile and laugh with spooky and silly decorations remembered for years to come. Here are 25 ideas to get in the Halloween spirit and have a Spooktacular time. 1. Serve spiced cider in a big plastic pumpkin using a ladle and serving into big orange plastic cups. 2. Make carrot juice for a healthy Halloween treat showing your orange colors. Use black licorice as swizzle sticks. 3. Set up flower vases with no flowers, but just dead twigs and branches you have spray painted black or painted in glow in the dark colors. 4. Hang gummy worms from your ceiling. 5. Buy a can of spider web spray from your local party store and create an elaborate spooky web on your ceiling or in one corner of your house where trick or treaters can view it when you open your door. 6. Build a life size stuffed scarecrow by stuffing jeans and a flannel shirt. Use pantyhose stuffed with polyfill (used to stuff pillows), so the head looks life like and poke in jewelry and safety pins that resemble scary body piercings. Decorate the face with paint. 7. Decorate those unwanted AOL and earthlink CD’s, or buy a cheap spindle of CD roms and glue candy corn to them and attach to fishing line or black ribbon and hang as porch decorations.

8. Paint your nails black with nail polish and make costume jewelry out of glow sticks or black licorice. 9. Make some MP3’s of scary sounds and screams and evil laughter and play the soundtrack to people you know can handle a joke. 10. Make a Halloween wreath by pinning black and orange candy into a Styrofoam wreath form. Hang it on your door entrance. 11. Find the silliest Halloween jokes on the Internet and print them up and read a random kid’s jokes to trick or treaters before

giving them their candy. That will really spoon them when they think they are getting a trick instead of a treat. 12. Fill candy jars with black licorice or black jelly beans and attach plastic glow in the dark spiders, snakes and insects to the lids. 13. Make a Ghoulish Garland or Banner by using black ribbon to tie a long string of plastic spiders or bugs and hang them around the room or around your door entrance. 14. Wear medical gloves and a surgical mask and scrubs decorated with some fake blood, to surprise your Halloween visitors when you answer the door. 15. Fill a room in your house with black and orange helium balloons. 16. Light several black votive candles and dim your lights to create a spooky atmosphere. 17. Make a mask out of googly craft eyes glued to an unwanted mask. It will freak people out seeing so many moving eyes. 18. Use a mini strobe light to flash in a darkened room. 19. Remote control fog machines sell for under $50 at several places on the net. They will create a creepy grave yard feeling and add to your stash of spook capades. 20. Buy a couple of fake and gross body parts at buycostumes. com

Your decoration will surely be unforgettable. 21. Buy fake mice and rats at a gag shop and strategically place them around both the inside and outside of your house to really spook visitors. For added affect you can place some in mousetraps. 22. Go to your dollar store for great bargains on Halloween novelties you can incorporate into your decorating and creation of spooky props. 23. Decorate a hideous wig with nasty things from a gag shop like fake dog poop and worms and fake vomit and little skulls. You’ll be sure to cause a reaction to keep you laughing all night. 24. You can make cupcakes with orange frosting and chocolate sprinkles for garnish, or if you want black icing, the Wilton company makes black icing dye. The way to make black icing is start with dark chocolate icing and stir in the black paste coloring which is made by Wilton and sold in Michaels or Wal-mart. 25. Make monster size foot prints leading up your driveway to your door. You can do this by taking a large sponge (like the kind you use to wash a car), and cut the shape of a shoe or foot bottom and then put some washable paint in an aluminum pan to stamp foot prints into a path.

Working Wardrobes Raises $165,000 at “Blue Jeans & Fast Cars” Fundraiser

The Newport News

Working Wardrobes CEO Founder Jerri Rosen with Ric King and Karen Butera.

Working Wardrobes held its annual “Blue Jeans & Fast Cars” fundraising event at the Marconi Automotive Museum in Tustin where guests engaged in viewing the $30 million dollar rarely-seen exotic and classic car collection.

Tips and tricks for planning the perfect Halloween Planning the perfect Halloween can be pretty spooky, and it’s not just because of the ghosts and ghouls that run from door to door. Coordinating Halloween activities, planning a festive party and pulling off the perfect costume for each family member can be frightening. But with a few technology tricks, you’ll be rewarded with a lot of treats and plenty of fun to make this holiday one to remember. Eerie e-vites set the tone for parties Planning a Halloween party? Email invites are perfectly acceptable for a casual soiree. Send out e-vites a few weeks ahead of time to give friends and family plenty of notice. Be sure to mention that costumes are encouraged, and list any other important details, like if the party is potluck style. The best part of email invites is you’ll receive RSVPs electronically, so you can track responses and get the perfect amount of party supplies for all attendees. And if you have an Outlook.com email account, you can flag RSVPs to the top of your inbox for easy reference, and instantly chat with friends on Facebook, Skype or Gmail to firm up last minute details, right from your inbox.

Scary inbox? Organize email easily If your inbox is a scary sight, it’s time to tap your magic wand for an organization transformation. With Outlook.com, it’s easy to sort through hundreds of messages in a few clicks. You can use the “sweep” feature to get rid of outdated emails you don’t need, like all those costume coupon deals that have expired. Frightful or friendly, find the perfect costume Whether young or old, Halloween is a time to let imaginations run wild and play pretend for the day. Finding the perfect costume for each member of the family can be a difficult and costly process. Track sales from your favorite Halloween supply stores and subscribe to email newsletters to get the latest alerts on costume trends and discounts. After Halloween is over, you can use Outlook.com’s oneclick unsubscribe to get off all those emails lists with little effort.

Access the perfect trick-or-treat schedule Hit the candy motherload and have fun with all the neighborhood kids and parents by plotting your trick-or-treat schedule ahead of time. Upload it to SkyDrive and everyone can access it while en route on any device. Then, all you have to do is get your flashlights, candy bags and giggles ready. Share boo-tiful photos from the day’s festivities Whether you love your smartphone or are a diehard digital camera

guru, there are bound to be plenty of fun photos the group needs to exchange. Use Outlook.com and SkyDrive together to share all your Halloween snaps in one mail - the file size doesn’t matter - and they will arrive in slideshow format! There’s no limit to the number of photos you can share and, since they’re all stored on SkyDrive, you can access them on any device anywhere, anytime. Share with Grandma and Grandpa, or gather the kids and relive the Halloween fun over and over again.

Homemade alternatives to Halloween candy Processed, sugar-packed candies are collected door-to-door every year at Halloween. This year, try a different angle with homemade sweet treats that parents can make with their kids for Halloween. Chef Claire Menck from The Art Institute of Wisconsin loves making ghostly “gorp” wrapped in white parchment paper with her two children. “Gorp is basically granola mixed with your child’s favorite treats like chocolate candies, peanut butter chips, pretzels, gummy bears, etc .,” she says. To make the granola, take oatmeal and toss with your choice of spices, honey and oil. Lay oatmeal on a sheet tray and toast on the lowest heat possible (usually 150 or 200 F). You can add sugar to the granola, but be careful to not add too much sugar as it can make it hard. Parents can also choose to substitute the sugar with agave or maple syrup. Mix the granola with the tasty treats. Take white parchment paper and draw two eyes. Place a scoop of the gorp into the opposite side of the paper and tie up top for spooky gorp. Another of Chef Menck’s favorite treats is dried fruit roll-ups wrapped to look like candy. She recommends using local, seasonal fruit. “We always go apple-picking in the fall

and come back with more than we need; and so we create dried apple treats.” Cut and peel the apples or your choice of fruit beforehand in half-inch slices. Then mix the slices with spices of your choosing such as cinnamon, nutmeg, brown sugar, etc. “Make it a tactile experience for your kids and allow them to mix all the ingredients together, maybe even with their hands,” she says. Lay the apples on an oiled cookie sheet, turn your oven on to the lowest setting and slow bake until dehydrated (about 45 to 90 minutes, depending on preference). Take colorful tissue paper or Halloween-themed paper and place under parchment paper. Once the fruit is dehydrated, place a small amount of the fruit on a 4-by-4-inch parchment paper. Then roll and twist the ends to look like a candy wrapper and tie the ends. You can also use dehydrated berries like cranberries for the fruit roll-up candy. “Chocolate! Can’t have Halloween without the chocolate, chocolate spiders with pretzel legs that is,” says Chef Amy Carter, baking and pastry instructor at The Art Institutes International Minnesota. Begin by lining a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil and spray with cooking spray. Melt chocolate chips of your choosing in the microwave in a

microwave-safe bowl, and stir every so often to make sure chocolate melts evenly. Add rice cereal or bran twigs, or your favorite crunchy grain and then add to the melted chocolate. Stir the mixture until well combined. Take half of a palm-size of the mixture and place on the baking sheet. Add stick pretzels for legs. Add two marshmallows or white chocolate chips for eyes. “For a creepier spin on your Halloween treats, I recommend truffle eyeballs to liven up a kids’ party,” Chef Carter says. All you need is 8 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate, 1/2 cup of heavy whipping cream and 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter. Heat the cream, pour over the chocolate,

and whisk in the butter until nice and smooth. Pour the mixture in a pan and chill for 2 hours, or -overnight - just long enough to firm it. You can flavor with anything like vanilla, peanut butter or fruit puree. Then take an ice cream scoop or have the kids help by rolling the mixture into small balls with their hands and then roll the balls in powdered sugar. Top off with a chocolate candy and then take red, edible writing gel to make squiggly lines. These creative, make-it-at-hometips are just some fun ideas you can create with your kids as a Halloween project, and then tackle carving the pumpkin.

T.S. No: B543235 CA Unit Code: B Loan No: 104123366/DINH AP #1: 477-102-11 NOTICE OF TRUSTEE’S SALE T.D. SERVICE COMPANY, as duly appointed Trustee under the following described Deed of Trust WILL SELL AT PUBLIC AUCTION TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER FOR CASH (in the forms which are lawful tender in the United States) and/or the cashier’s, certified or other checks specified in Civil Code Section 2924h (payable in full at the time of sale to T.D. Service Company) all right, title and interest conveyed to and now held by it under said Deed of Trust in the property hereinafter described: Trustor: ANTHONY H. DINH Recorded May 29, 2008 as Instr. No. 2008000256799 in Book --- Page --- of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of ORANGE County; CALIFORNIA , pursuant to the Notice of Default and Election to Sell thereunder recorded July 17, 2013 as Instr. No. 2013000429168 in Book --- Page --- of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of ORANGE County CALIFORNIA. YOU ARE IN DEFAULT UNDER A DEED OF TRUST DATED MAY 19, 2007. UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. 12 MYSTIQUE, NEWPORT BEACH, CA 92657 “(If a street address or common designation of property is shown above, no warranty is given as to its completeness or correctness).” Said Sale of property will be made in “as is” condition 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 as in said note provided, advances, if any, 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. Said sale will be held on: NOVEMBER 19, 2013, AT 3:00 P.M. *ON THE FRONT STEPS TO THE ENTRANCE OF THE ORANGE CIVIC CENTER, 300 E. CHAPMAN, ORANGE, CA 92866 At the time of the initial publication of this notice, the total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation secured by the above described Deed of Trust and estimated costs, expenses, and advances is $7,635,510.65. It is possible that at the time of sale the opening bid may be less than the total indebtedness due. 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 (714) 480-5690 or (800) 843-0260 ext 5690 or visit this Internet Web site: http://www.tacforeclosures. com/sales, using the file number assigned to this case B543235 B. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. If the sale is set aside for any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the monies paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee or the Mortgagee’s attorney. Date: October 18, 2013 T.D. SERVICE COMPANY as said Trustee, T.D.

Metropolitan Drive, Suite 400 Orange, CA 92868-0000 The Beneficiary may be attempting to collect a debt and any information obtained may be used for that purpose. If available, the expected opening bid and/or postponement information may be obtained by calling the following telephone number(s) on the day before the sale: (714) 480-5690 or (800) 843-0260 ext 5690 or you may access sales information at http://www.tacforeclosures.com/sales .
