Women’s History Month in March gives us time to reflect not only on the long arc of history but on one’s own personal history. One of my most vivid personal historical moments was at the 2017 Women’s March in D.C., a couple of months after “that” presidential election.

The rally was set to begin at 10 a.m., although many attendees had been at the site since the crack of dawn. It was overcast but not raining. It takes faith to be smooshed together with as many as a million other people, yet the mood was simultaneously joyous and somber. We were all witnessing the dawn of American fascism and not going quietly.

At around 9 a.m., a young, disheveled-looking white man with a huge, heavy backpack elbowed his way into the tightly packed crowd. My dear friend, Georgia Bragg, and I saw him; he gave us big-time creeps!

“Did you see that guy with the backpack?” Georgia asked. I told her yes. Given that he was within steps of me, I said to him, “Excuse me — we’re not supposed to bring large backpacks into this crowd. The organizers clearly specified that.”

He looked at me and said, “I have water purification supplies, and I just got back from Tanzania.” What? Talk about evasive! Gavin de Becker’s bestselling book “The Gift of Fear” discusses all sorts of “red flags” one should act on. We also discuss them in the courses we give at IMPACT Personal Safety. And here was a classic example: Mr. Tanzania gave us information I hadn’t requested — red flag!

This man’s presence bugged us. Georgia said, “I don’t know if I’m making a big deal out of nothing, but I can’t shake my bad feelings about that guy.” I told her, “Our classes teach you not to dismiss those feelings. Mother Nature gave us warning signals, and they are designed to protect us.” So, Georgia worked her way through the crowd (no easy feat) in one direction to find help while I decided to confront the guy directly.

By this time, he’d moved farther into the crowd. I reasoned that if he really was a suicide bomber, I still wasn’t far enough away to avoid the blast, so I might as well be next to him. Before I left, I told someone next to me that I would find security to report a suspicious man. She automatically said, “Does he look Middle Eastern?” (That kneejerk “profiling” response is a column for another time.) “No,” I said. “Middle Western. Like Timothy McVeigh with buck teeth.” And it wasn’t just his teeth that stuck out — his entire presentation and demeanor did, too.

I made my way through the throng by saying something like, “Gotta pee!” which parts the waters in a crowd of women like a hot knife through butter. I found Mr. Backpacker and said, “Your backpack bothers me.” I saw several women standing around him nodding and giving me thumbs up. He was giving other people the willies, too.

“It doesn’t bother me,” he said. Another red flag: He minimized my concern. “What’s in the backpack? You’re not supposed to have them in this crowd,” I repeated. His response this time? “I’m an American citizen.” This was now waving a red flag with sequins on it! More than anything he’d previously said, his response was such a non sequitur that I told him, “That’s it. I’m going to get security.”

This time, I cut through the crowd while yelling, “Security, coming through.” I found two Women’s March volunteers; they followed me back to Mr. Water Purification, and he was as nonresponsive and rude to them as he’d been to me. Meanwhile, Georgia found two fine D.C. police officers — both African American women (yes!) — who practically leaped through the crowd to get to Mr. Potential Bomb Threat. They escorted him away.

We’ll never know what was actually in that backpack. However, the “if you see something, say something” rule was in play, and who knows how that might have ended had we not intervened? As the saying goes, no news is good news. As in, “No bombs exploded at the March in D.C. on Jan. 21, 2017.” And that, my friends, is great news.

The moral of this story? If you notice that you’re trying to talk yourself out of a gut feeling or the hair is standing up on the back of your neck, please do us all a favor and open your mouth instead. You can’t, by sheer will, command the tiny hairs on your neck to stand up; only your early warning system can, so do not override it!

I don’t recommend following my example of directly confronting a “suspect.” I have trained for years in verbal skills and managing my adrenalin in such scenarios. However, there are some strategies that anyone can do, such as saying to someone else, “This doesn’t feel right.” And while I know that friends and some authorities may poo-poo you, don’t help them by initially poo-pooing yourself. Your mouth is always the first and best defense in a crowd or with scary people. Keep talking until someone listens and takes you seriously.

Expanding Health Care

LA County, Pasadena work to build mental health services

In his recent State of the City address, Pasadena Mayor Victor Gordo stressed the need for mental health services. He added a comprehensive outpatient health clinic is desperately needed in Pasadena.

To help expand health care and bring new services to North Pasadena, Los Angeles County Supervisor Kathryn Barger recently introduced a motion that will mobilize the county’s health and mental health departments.

The motion stated that the county’s chief executive office will work with the departments of mental health, health services and public health, along with the city of Pasadena, to identify properties that could be used for both health outpatient services and housing and to develop a funding plan based on the scope, plans and budgets of the acquisition.

“My motion’s goal is to bring tangible health and mental health care solutions to neighborhoods in my district where there is an acute need,” Barger said. “This work has the potential to serve as a model and will be done in lock step with leaders from the city of Pasadena. The first step is to find funding and a physical site where we can co-locate housing, our respective health departments, the county’s mental health professionals and local mental health organizations to fill a service gap. This county-city collaboration will make a big difference in the well-being of many people’s lives.”

The motion was informed by a May 2021 report by the Department of Health Services that identified the North Pasadena region as one of five “high-priority areas” lacking health care access, particularly in the form of outpatient mental health services.

“This is an example of how city and county governments can work together with private hospitals and academia in order to improve the delivery of desperately needed health and mental health services,” Gordo said. “I would like to thank Supervisor Barger for partnering with me and the city of Pasadena and encouraging our partners — Huntington Hospital and Fuller School of Psychology — as we take this important step forward. I look forward to creating an effective and collaborative public-private partnership for the benefit of those with physical and mental health needs which were exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic.”

News Briefs

Pasadena High locked down in response to gun rumors

Pasadena High School and the adjacent Focus Point Academy were placed on lockdown March 14 after a student allegedly brought what was thought to be a firearm on campus, according to Hilda Ramirez Horvath, with Pasadena Unified School District.

As soon as it was reported to staff, school safety protocols were immediately initiated, and the entire campus was placed on lockdown. Students and staff remained in locked classrooms.

Pasadena law enforcement responded immediately and questioned the student who had hidden the supposed weapon, Horvath said.

“A canine unit was brought in, and after a thorough search lasting several hours, police located what they determined to be an airsoft (plastic pellet) gun modeled to look like an actual handgun,” she said.

“The lockdown was lifted once police confirmed that the threat to students and staff was not credible.”

Pasadena High School Principal Dr. Mathew Kodama is grateful.

“We want to thank our partners in the

Pasadena Police Department for their excellent work and support of our students’ safety during this scenario,” Kodama said.

“We also appreciate the patience and understanding of our parents as our partners in law enforcement completed their work. The safety of our students and community is always our top priority.”

School staff regularly practice lockdown procedures and emergency drills for sheltering in place, Horvath said.

School counselors and administrators were available as needed throughout the week to support students and parents.

Visit Pasadena launches digital marketing campaign

Visit Pasadena has launched an integrated digital marketing campaign, titled “No Rose-Colored Glasses Needed,” to inspire meetings, conventions, events and business travel in Pasadena.

Launched in January of this year, the campaign uses data-driven strategies to reach meetings professionals in target markets across key industry verticals to increase awareness of Pasadena as a premiere meetings destination and to boost midweek occupancy.

“We designed this campaign to ensure

Pasadena is top of mind for meetings industry professionals in a competitive marketplace,” said Kristin McGrath, Visit Pasadena executive director.

“We are proud to showcase how Pasadena really delivers with centrally located hotels and iconic venues that give business travelers a walkable downtown, world-class cultural institutions and a melting pot of culinary experiences.”

Utilizing data from leading travel industry researchers, the “No Rose-Colored

Glasses Needed” campaign targets key audiences through social media, display ads and email marketing. It is also supported by in-person visuals and messaging at lead generating trade shows, such as this month’s PCMA’s Destination Showcase. The Pasadena Convention Center and Civic Auditorium recently had the NAACP Image Awards and AlienCon. “America’s Got Talent” auditions season 18 from March 24 to April 12.

The Future of Music Industry veteran Mary Rahmani leads Moon Projects

For as long as she could remember, Mary Rahmani has been deeply in love with music. She spent her childhood singing in the bathtub, listening to records and playing with her parents’ old cassette player, which she used to experiment with beat and rhythm. The Pasadena native is now leading her own joint venture record label with Republic Records, Moon Projects, and uplifting LA artists.

“I just knew I wanted to be part of this creative space but didn’t quite know what capacity,” Rahmani said. “I didn’t really have aspirations to be a singer or start my own group, even to be a songwriter, but I just knew that I was consumed by music and melody and wanted to be a part of it.

“As I was graduating high school and getting pushed to perhaps have more of a safe career in medicine or in science, I wanted to go into the arts, so I dropped out of college and took a full-time job just to pay my bills. And then I told myself, ‘I’m not going to give up. I need to figure out how to get in this world.’”

In 1999, Rahmani earned a three-month internship at Sony Records. It was her first professional step into LA’s music ecosystem, and to her it “felt like home.”

“I was so ecstatic when I got my first internship with Sony,” she described. “I was a barista. I was taking classes at night, had a full-time job during the day, so I felt validated.”

After her internship, Rahmani worked for EMI Music as an artist development representative, where she submersed herself in LA’s live music scene and began managing local artists like The Airborne Toxic Event. Rahmani then moved to New York City to work in publishing before returning to LA as an artist and marketing manager at Dangerbird Records. Two years later, she accepted an artists and repertoire (A&R) job at Capitol Records.

“It was the first time I had an office. I was like, ‘Oh, my gosh, I’m in this historical building where I used to go dancing across the street.’ (It all came) full circle,” Rahmani said. “Once I left Capitol, I dove into the tech side of things. … I wanted to empower myself and learn more about the music space and where it was going in a digital age.”

In 2018, Rahmani became one of the first hires for TikTok, when there were around 40 employees working in the North Ameri-

can offices. She joined shortly after TikTok owner ByteDance had absorbed social media platform Musical.ly, and described the process as a “whirlwind,” using Google Translate to transfer resources from Chinese to English.

During her near two years at TikTok, Rahmani worked with acclaimed artists like Doja Cat, The Weeknd and Lil Nas X. She quickly recognized how beneficial social media platforms could be for artists, publishers and record labels as she witnessed the evolution of the music industry.

“(The music industry) has definitely intersected with social platforms, and we can’t ignore it,” Rahmani said. “We have to accept that the internet is parallel within music discovery and amplification. … You have to have presence on platforms.

“I love sorting out where the next generation is discovering music, how they’re learning about artists, what they’re drawn to, and then how we can take (lessons) from that and learn to implement strategy for new signings and legacy signings as well.”

After working myriad roles for a diverse collection of music companies, Rahmani decided that she would use her experience in the worlds of short-form video, strategic creative partnerships and cross-platform A&R to empower herself and artists around her. In 2021, Moon Projects was born.

“I just wanted to be able to be in a safe space and help artists feel creative and supported,” Rahmani said. “I love being a part

of music and change. And there are a lot of companies that are doing that and there are so many people that will continue to do so, but I want to be a part of building something on my own.”

Built for the social media era, Moon Projects is a three-pronged creative collective that offers consulting services for record labels, managers, advertisement agencies and influencer agencies, provides a “Creator Curation and Strategy” package that focuses on boosting online engagement and virality on short-form, vertical platforms, and serves as a record label in partnership with Republic Records.

Rahmani’s first signing for Moon Projects was LA-born singer-songwriter Em Beihold, whose song “Numb Little Bug” is certified gold in the United States and platinum in Canada. Rahmani discovered Beihold on TikTok and signed her six months later in 2022.

“We had a bond instantly,” Rahmani said. “I just thought her voice was so stunning. Being at that platform, I could recognize instantly when a song or an artist is going to trend or go viral. And I understand why companies want to sign those moments, but for me, I’ve always loved diamonds in the rough, and the left lane, and getting them more into the mainstream side. I just knew Em’s voice was so fantastic and she had so many songs written. She’s been doing it since she was a child herself.

“I found out later that she’s half Persian. I’m full Persian, first generation, so I felt like it was totally meant to be. … It was just one of those LA ‘La La’ moments.”

Beihold recently performed at the College Football National Championship’s Playoff Playlist Live concert series at BMO Stadium, opening for the Jonas Brothers, and is touring North America with Lewis Capaldi.

“It’s been so amazing. I feel like I am reliving my 20s by working with her,” Rahmani said. “Her world has been thrown upside down, too. I don’t think any of us expected her first single to a brand-new JV (joint venture) would go platinum, and it did. It was getting a million streams a day when it first came out. It was insane, and I got to witness the power of Republic Records and how fantastic they’ve been in amplifying her success and her growth. I think now, on her second year, she’s feeling really good in making sure that her next moves are even more strategic and she’s continuing to feel the support of me and the people around her.”

Along with Beihold’s success, Rahmani has also celebrated several recent victories in the other facets of her business.

“I just launched ‘Moon Projects Signings Direct’ through Imperial, which is Republic’s distribution arm, so that’s going to be exciting for me to work with even more developing artists and really help be a part of their career from the beginning,” she said.

“Then I launched my JV with (publishing company) Warner Chappell last year … and that also allows more tools and partners to help evolving artists, getting them with songwriters, producers, and really just giving empowerment and time back to the artist community with guidance that come from my experience.”

Rahmani’s advice to up-and-coming artists is to stay true to what they believe in and what they want to create. Her hope for her own future is to continue to advocate for and work with artists to build on their potential and reach new heights. She hopes that Moon Projects will become known as a place where artists are encouraged to stay authentic.

“As long as you’re creating and taking steps in that direction, you are successful,” Rahmani said.

Rose Bowl News

Rose Bowl Institute hosting luncheon

The Rose Bowl Institute will host its second Women’s Empowerment Networking Luncheon from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Thursday, April 20, at Spieker Field at the Rose Bowl Stadium.

The Women’s Empowerment Networking Luncheon is a free event that will showcase female leadership, confidence and character, hosted by former USWNT player and twotime Olympic gold medalist Julie Foudy.

“It’s my privilege to continue supporting the Rose Bowl Institute and their ongoing programming,” Foudy said.

“Their leadership in this space provides unique value and endless opportunities for our young men and women. This year’s luncheon will continue to instill leadership, ethics, confidence and character-based skills in the mindsets of all the youth who attend.”

The networking luncheon welcomes men and women in high school and college with the opportunity to connect with female leaders from various industries such as aviation, medicine, entertainment and sports. Leaders will be stationed at tables where attendees can converse with them in a casual setting and learn more about their respective career journeys.

As a foundational pillar of the institute’s platform, the annual Women’s Empowerment Symposium is a three-day event specially designed for high school juniors, seniors and college students to learn from female business leaders, athletes, and local and national education leaders under the inspirational brand of the Rose Bowl Stadium.

Due to its popularity, the symposium will continue to resume its three-day program in the fall, in addition to continuing with its annual networking luncheon on the field in April.

“Breaking down stereotypes and pushing the barriers that women may unconsciously create for themselves is our main goal at the Annual Women’s Empowerment Networking Luncheon,” said Lauren Hall, programs director at the Rose Bowl Institute.

“It is the hope that, one day, this may help young students, both men and women, build self-confidence and help provide them with the tools needed to act in the next steps of their education or careers. This two-part program over the course of a year is meant to share knowledge and skills through networking as well as inspire, empower and educate our next generation.”

Organization launches civic literacy project

In its continued effort to champion sportsmanship, leadership and citizenship, the Rose Bowl Institute launched its “Sportsmanship as Citizenship” civic literacy program.

While it will grow to be national in scope, the program launched locally in the Pasadena Unified School District with school appear-

ances at Marshall Fundamental Secondary School and Pasadena High School.

Partnering with the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia, Ready, Set, Gold! in Los Angeles, and coordinating initially with the Pasadena Unified School District, the project sends athletes to high schools to promote the value of sportsmanship and show students the parallels between good sportsmanship and good citizenship. They then leave behind materials and resources from the nonpartisan National Constitution Center for follow-up learning activity.

“The Rose Bowl Stadium has impacted generations in such emotional ways,” said Jens Weiden, chief executive officer/general manager of America’s Stadium. “The Rose Bowl Institute putting athletes in schools in extending that impact into our communities, starting with PUSD, and will deepen the understanding of sportsmanship’s value to all of us as we grow and live our lives.”

The purpose of the program is to interest American youth in becoming good citizens on the field and in their communities. The Rose Bowl Institute seeks to inspire students by facilitating athletes to speak in schools on sportsmanship as citizenship. Athletes have the students’ attention and respect and can get messages across.

John Naber, five-time Olympic medalist and former world swimming record holder, spoke to students at a Marshall School Town Hall, describing the elements of sportsmanship and showing the parallels to the elements of good citizenship. Among those elements for both are fair play (rule of law), respectful competition (respect for the “other”), teamwork (collaboration) and appreciation for the game (understanding the democratic process).

Cody Jones, a paralympian born with cerebral palsy, set records throwing the javelin for the U.S. Paralympian Track and Field team and authored the inspirational children’s book “Henry Makes It on Top.” He spoke on March 1 to Pasadena High School.

Ready, Set, Gold! sponsors Olympic and Paralympic athletes to speak to student populations on pro-social subjects. Under this program’s auspices, it provided two athletes to Pasadena schools to launch this nationwide program.

“This country needs more attention to civic literacy,” said Lauren Hall, program director. “The Rose Bowl Institute is delighted to partner with such luminary organizations in bringing attention to this critical topic to schools, beginning in our hometown, Pasadena. By gaining the students’ attention with inspiring athletes. This session awakens their appetite for learning more about American democracy.”

Jeffrey Rosen, president and chief executive officer of the National Constitution Center, is happy to partner with the institute.

“We are thrilled to partner with the Rose Bowl Institute in this important endeavor to educate American youth on civics via references to sportsmanship,” Rosen said. “Our National Constitution Center materials de-

signed for this program allow students and teachers alike to pursue interests in the Constitution and our rights and responsibilities.”

Joe Normal brings a new energy to the stage

Americana, folk and glam rock artist Joe Normal is a storyteller at heart.

Shaped by his upbringing in a New Jersey factory town, Normal will release his new album, “Public Works,” on Friday, March 24. The video for the song “Small Town Factory” will precede it.

He’s scheduled an album release party for Friday, March 24, at RT Rogers Brewing Co. in Sierra Madre. The album is the follow-up to December’s “Christmas in a Blue-Collar Town.”

Normal said he is constantly doing something with music.

“I’m always working,” he said. “I’ve always got some song that I’m recording, or

I’m making a music video, releasing or promoting. I definitely like to stay creative and keep putting stuff out.”

On “Public Works,” he tried tries to challenge listeners with a variety of sounds. He incorporated the synthesizer, glam rock guitar solos, the harmonica and the mandolin.

Although he has released demos in the past through digital distribution, “Public Works” is his first official solo album.

In his songs, he touches on relevant topics like suicide awareness, the criminalization of the homeless, domestic violence and capitalism.

“I’m more like an observer in a way,” he said.

“I see things, and you’ve just got to say something about it and not point a finger. I

Stadium honors George Halas

The Rose Bowl Legacy Foundation added a historical marker to its property honoring football icon and 1919 Rose Bowl Game MVP George Halas.

Donations to the Halas project also support the preservation, protection and enhancement of the future of the Rose Bowl Stadium as a National Historic Landmark.

A Rose Bowl Game Hall of Fame inductee in 2018, the Halas was a three-sport athlete at the University of Illinois, but he played in the 1919 Rose Bowl Game as a member of the Great Lakes Navy. He led the Navy to a 17-0 win over the Mare Island Marines and was named MVP of the game. He scored on a 32-yard touchdown reception and added an interception that he returned for 77 yards — still the longest nonscoring interception return in a Rose Bowl Game.

Following his time in the Navy, Halas founded the Decatur Staleys, an original franchise in the American Professional Football Association in 1920. The Staleys moved to Chicago in 1921 and became the Chicago Bears in 1922, the same year the APFA became known as the NFL. Halas was the player-coach of the Bears through 1928.

In all, he had four separate 10-year stints as the club’s head coach. His 324 wins (including postseason) as a head coach stood as an NFL record until 1993, and his total of six league championships remains tied for the most.

Halas was also a charter inductee to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1963.

The Halas marker is the sixth such educational plaque on the stadium’s property joining historical markers honoring Stadium Architect Myron Hunt and the Home of the Rose Bowl Game (both located on Gate A), Peyton Manning (located at Tunnel 16), coach Eddie Robinson (coming in early 2023) and Fritz Pollard (coming in early 2023).

“The Rose Bowl Stadium has a legacy that stretches worldwide — and that foundation is rooted in the game of college football,” said Dedan Brozino, president of the Rose Bowl Legacy Foundation. “Mr. Halas is undoubtedly a key part of our story here in Pasadena and for generations of football fans. We are excited to educate our visitors and honor his contributions to the game thanks to generous supporters of this project.”

A New Vision Old Town’s newest gallery, The Corridor, makes its debut

FoundrSpace in Old Town Pasadena is not only a coworking space but a community hub of collaboration and artistic expression.

Pasadena’s newest art gallery, The Corridor, on the second floor of FoundrSpace, opened March 10 during ArtNight Pasadena.

The opening exhibit, titled “Prismatic Humans,” features 13 local artists displaying myriad artistic mediums, from painting and sculpture to performance art.

The show runs through Monday, April 10, and the gallery will be open to the public by appointment. At the end of its run, the exhibit will have an additional closing show, which has yet to be announced.

“Our mission is to bring these high-quality artworks, pieces and group exhibits to Pasadena and make them available to the public in a welcoming environment that everyone can enjoy together,” said Edwin Guembes, co-owner and co-founder of FoundrSpace and FoundrVision.

FoundrSpace serves as a coworking space, while FoundrVision is a nonprofit that runs community events and facilitates projects with local creatives within FoundrSpace.

FoundrVision is responsible for the gallery space and puts on cultural program-

don’t want to be an agitator or someone who stirs (expletive) up. As an artist, I have an observation I make of things. I try to put that into songs.”

With the album, he wanted to tell the stories of regular working-class people and to inspire them to pursue what fulfills them.

“It’s about regular people having a dream,” he said.

“A lot of people forget to pursue their dream because they get stuck working and surviving. I just hope I can remind people don’t forget about what your gift is. It’s OK to work and support your family, but don’t forget, if you have a gift, you’ve got to pursue that, too.”

Even though Normal focuses on New Jersey in his music, he has found his music resonates with working people worldwide.

This album is different from other projects because it was completely self-produced by Normal, with some help from a mixer.

“I think of doing a solo album kind of like a potter sitting at the wheel with clay,” Normal said.

“That’s the medium they are working

ming, including visual and performing arts, comedy shows and jazz nights, to name a few. The primary goal is to “support local artists,” Guembes said.

Leo Moleiro, a local artist, creative director and FounderSpace resident artist, is the person behind the project and will serve as a curator for the new gallery.

Moleiro, who has created murals throughout FoundrSpace, wanted to include more community art. After noticing that the second-floor space was underutilized, Moleiro decided an art gallery would be the perfect fit.

Another artist instrumental in the gallery, Alejandro Heiber, also known as BruHa, said, “Everybody involved in the corridor is either first- or second-generation immigrants, so we have that point of view. Many of the artists in his lineup are international artists.”

With the new gallery space, the team wanted to “make a platform for underrepresented artists or communities and emerging artists and use it to host workshops and maybe artists talks and other exhibits to give a platform that other artists may not necessarily get a chance to do with other galleries around the area,” Guembes explained.

The featured artist for the opening show is self-studied, multidisciplinary artist Marinés Adrianza, who uses translucent paints mixed

with, and it’s a singular vision that creates this piece of work. That’s how I approached this album.”

“Public Works” took 16 months, occasionally released singles during that time.

“People don’t go combing the bootleg bins anymore,” Normal said.

“You have to do it in a sly way where they get to discover or find it.”

Normal stands out as an acoustic musician because of his glam rock style. He said listeners really respond to the energy he brings onstage.

“If you have that light, people are drawn in,” he said.

“It’s contagious. You can be playing an acoustic guitar and a harmonica, but people are drawn in because there’s a genuine thing there.”

Normal founded the glam punk rock/pop group the Zeros, which regularly performed on the Sunset Strip. They recorded a theme song for radio host Howard Stern.

Normal has lived in Los Angeles since the 1980s. These days, he splits time between LA and New Jersey.

Most recently, he worked with the rock group the Anytown’rs, who stopped performing together at the start of the pandemic.

He has been a singer-songwriter since the early 2000s, but he has also worked with

The gallery’s first show, “Prismatic Humans,” opened March 10 during ArtNight and will run for the next month.

bands during much of that time.

When Normal went solo for the first time between 1999 and 2009, he partnered with Bobby Flay, providing music for his show “Food Nation.”

He also co-wrote the title track on Sammy Hagar’s “Not 4 Sale” album.

He has shared the stage with iconic bands and artists such as Guns N’ Roses, the Gin Blossoms, Peter Noone, Elliott Smith, L.A. Guns, Tonic, the Dogs D’Amour, Gene Loves Jezebel, Willie Nile and the Smithereens.

The guitar is now Normal’s primary instrument. Growing up playing the piano and drums, Normal was exposed to the likes of David Bowie, T. Rex, Elton John and the Beatles by his five older sisters.

When he was older, he started to discover artists who were strong storytellers, such as Bruce Springsteen and Tom Petty.

Growing up, everyone’s dads worked in factories. His dreams were very much at odds

with the realities he saw in the New Jersey factory town where he was raised.

“I lived in a household where that was informing our future,” Normal said.

“What was my future as a kid who was becoming a musician and an artist, who had a vision to be in a band? That wasn’t really an option. My father was a singer, and my mom appreciated music, so they supported us by allowing me and my brother to have a drum set in the basement. … College was not going to be our path. We were working class. Our family didn’t have the means to put us through college.”

One of his jobs took him inside a factory where they made tin cans.

“It was so fricking loud in there all of the men were going deaf. When you walked in, they gave you a hardhat and a pair of earphones. I’ve seen the insides of the factories, so I know that life. … I’d like to be a voice for those working people,” Normal said.

In the future, the team would like to have monthly rotating free and public shows, including solo and group exhibits. “We like the group exhibit format because we try to be very inclusive in our mission. So having group shows allows us to include many artists,” Guembes said.

The group behind the new gallery wants to connect with local artists, whether novice or experienced, and encourages anyone interested to reach out to get involved.

“We’re just starting out, and we’re happy to collaborate with others,” Heiber said.

SENIOR STORY

Aging With Dignity

How the Pasadena Senior Center supports the most vulnerable

Awise person once said, “Variety is the spice of life,” and Akila Gibbs, Pasadena Senior Center’s executive director, agrees. When asked what a given week might look like at the center, Gibbs paused, saying, “No two weeks are the same.”

Indeed, there is always something exciting happening at the center. Last week, it hosted the celebrated New York Citybased modern dance troupe Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater. Beginning in May, the center will host its annual Pasadena Senior Games, attended by over 1,200 participants, featuring Olympic-style sporting events like track and field, cycling, pickleball, swimming and

“If you cannot get out of your chair or get up and down off the floor, it’s hard to want to age in place. A lot of people want to age at home. … We want people to have a choice. We don’t want them to go to a nursing home if they don’t want to.”

powerlifting.

“Our main objective is that we want seniors to age well with dignity,” Gibbs said. The Pasadena Senior Center has served older adults in Pasadena for over 60 years. As a nonprofit, the center is a minority, and Gibbs estimates that only around 2% of senior centers nationwide occupy a

nonprofit status.

Annually, the center serves around 10,000 seniors and 200 to 300 on any given day, depending on class schedules. The center offers over 30 classes, like Art and Joy of Sewing, qi gong and tai chi, and chair Pilates, along with self-defense and meditation.

Since the pandemic, many classes are now offered both in-person and virtually, allowing those who are immobile or ill to participate.

In addition to classes, the center hosts lunches, events and nearly 20 clubs, including those devoted to running, bridge, needle arts, scrabble, writing and reading.

The center is a haven for many who come for classes and programming and flock to the center to connect with friends, have lunch, or play cards or pool. The center’s lounge is often populated with people relaxing, reading the newspaper, and sipping a hot drink from the coffee bar. “One woman comes every day, and she just puts puzzles together,” Gibbs noted.

On the first Friday of each month, the center partners with a food bank to provide meals to seniors in need and currently has the largest food distribution program for older adults in Southern California.

Seniors comprise one of the most vulnerable populations, with many older adults not receiving proper care or support. The center runs a “telephone reassurance” program that does regular phone check-ins on seniors in the community.

“Over the years, we’ve gotten to know many of these people, so we know when something’s amiss with them. If they don’t answer, we will call the authorities, and on many occasions, we have found people in dire straits,” Gibbs said.

The programming and classes at the center are intentional and feature a two-pronged approach — keeping seniors healthy physically through movement and exercise and mentally to stave off loneliness and “keep

people interested in life and in learning new things,” Gibbs said. Physical activity is especially vital for older adults who experience muscle atrophy at a rapid pace without exercise.

“If you cannot get out of your chair or get up and down off the floor, it’s hard to want to age in place. A lot of people want to age at home. … We want people to have a choice. We don’t want them to go to a nursing home if they don’t want to,” Gibbs explained. As children move away and friends and spouses begin to pass, many seniors experience loneliness and isolation, the health ramification of which is equivalent to smoking almost a pack of cigarettes a day.

At its core, the center means to create a welcoming community to provide seniors with a place to expand their lives and social circle and continue learning about themselves.

“When you come to a place like the Pasadena Senior Center, you meet new friends. You get to learn something you didn’t know before. We have people taking art classes who never thought they could paint, and they find out, to their surprise, that there is an artist living in them. That’s wonderful — seeing people discover new things about themselves and learn new things,” Gibbs explained.

Going for Gold

Pasadena Senior Games set to begin in May

For athlete Sarah Sneider, the Pasadena Senior Games have kept her young.

“You don’t stop playing games when you get old; you get old because you stop playing games,” she said.

Sneider will join more than 1,200 others at this year’s games, which run from Sunday, May 28, to Sunday, July 16. They feature 16 Olympic-style events, including track and field, archery, swimming, tennis, pickleball, disc golf and softball, among others. Registration is open.

The Pasadena Senior Games were founded in 1993 by former Pasadena Senior Center staff member Cynthia Rosedale as part of a national network of sports competitions for adults 50 and older. Pasadena was an early adopter of the games, which began nationally in 1987.

Rosedale was an unwavering advocate for improving the lives of seniors and began countless programs at the senior center. Although she died in 2016, her support continued through her legacy gift to the games, which continues to fund the event.

The sporting events are held throughout the city and beyond, depending on available facilities. Swimming is held at the Rose Bowl Aquatics Center, track and field is at Occidental College in Eagle Rock, and tennis is at the Arcadia Tennis Center.

Unlike the Pasadena Senior Games, a regional event, the National Senior Games are hosted biennially by the National Senior Games Association, which sets the standard for all the senior games, including the state and local competitions.

To qualify for nationals, competitors must rank in the top four at a state competition. The next set of National Senior Games for which athletes can qualify is in 2025, making the Pasadena Senior Games in 2024 a qualifying year to go to nationals.

Studies have confirmed that physical activity and mental engagement can delay and lessen the effects of aging.

In addition to preventing myriad ailments like coronary heart disease, high blood pressure, colon cancer and diabetes, exercise for older adults also helps with mobility and balance, preventing serious injuries due to falls.

As much as the games motivate seniors to stay active, the event also deconstructs ideas around aging and what is possible after 50.

“It’s important for society to under-

stand that your ability to not only physically do things but to care about going out and being your best self is not something that stops at age 50,” said Annie Laskey, director of events at the Pasadena Senior Center.

“Aging in our current society has not always been looked at positively. There’s a real focus on youth and the young. … Watching a 70-year-old pole vaulting and a 90-year-old running a 5000-meter race along with the 50-year-olds focused on being that person 40 years down the line gives a whole different sensibility to what aging means. It’s a positive image for everybody.”

Participants range from former Olympians and serious athletes chasing world records to newbies who are picking up a sport for fun.

Many competitions, like swimming and track and field, have master and novice categories, like the 25-yard swim and power walking, for those who want to adopt a healthier lifestyle but might not feel ready to enter a more extreme competition.

“The games allow for that kind of expansiveness and inclusiveness for elite athletes and less-experienced competitors,” Laskey said.

While many compete as serious athletes with goals of medaling, most look forward to catching up with old friends.

“The games are just a wonderful opportunity to be motivated to stay fit, and you meet amazing people at the games; they’re like family,” Sneider said.

“When I lost my husband, I was devastated, and staying fit and preparing for the games was extremely helpful. … It’s like a reunion every year when you get back together with the people you compete with in the games. Seeing each other again is something we can look forward to. We’re just happy to be alive and be able to participate.”

Sneider and her son, Rob, who turned 50 this year and will compete in the games for the first time, host the powerlifting event at their gym, Sneiders Family Fitness.

Sneider’s husband, Harry, who died in 2014, was a world-champion powerlifter and began the gym with his wife in 1990. The gym has hosted the powerlifting event since the games started in Pasadena in 1993.

Now 78, Sneider began powerlifting in the senior games when she was 50. Since then, she has branched out to other events like rope climbing, the long jump, cycling, feats of strength, and track and field. During the National Senior Games in Albuquerque in 2019, she won a gold medal in track and field. At past Pasadena Senior Games, she has medaled in rope climbing and the long jump. During this year’s games, Sneider will again compete in powerlifting, the long jump, and the 50- and 100-meter races.

Jeanne Roy, who runs multiple track and field events in the games, learned of the senior games after discovering Julia Hurricane Hawkins, a centenarian track and field star.

The 62-year-old Roy wasn’t an athlete until she began competing in the senior games. During the Palm Desert Senior Games, her most recent competition, Roy took home three gold medals in the 50-, 100- and 200-meter races.

“The games have given me a sense of pride,” Roy said.

“It’s allowed me to push myself physically in a way I never had before. … I was unaware of how much I could do, how hard I could push, and how competitive I could be. … It’s given me insight into my abilities and made me realize that there’s no reason that you know, barring unforeseen circumstances, any of this that should have to stop.

“There are women and men in their ’80s, ’90s and hundreds that I look at, and I’m in awe. The thing is, there’s nothing unique or special about them. They’re just willing to get out there and do what needs to be done to excel in their sport.”

Autonomous Elder Care

Mt. San Antonio Gardens residents relish independence

Mt. San Antonio Gardens should be synonymous with community, according to Denise Stevenson, the director of marketing and outreach for the senior living community in Claremont/Pomona. The first thing people notice when they tour the grounds, she said, is the community’s friendliness and the residents’ dedication.

“Visitors have asked me if I’ve planted or paid people to stand along the way we walk and say hello to them because it seems like everyone is just really friendly,” Stevenson said, laughing. “But everyone at The Gardens is really friendly.”

At Mt. San Antonio Gardens, residents know each other by name, greeting one another as they walk past. The campus is energetic, vibrant and full of seniors eager to be of service to one another.

Stevenson said many of the 500 residents at Mount San Antonio Gardens moved in at a young age. The minimum age for admission to The Gardens is 60, and the majority of their residents live autonomously. Many, Stevenson added, aren’t even fully retired.

Residents tend to be engaged community members and are actively involved in their governance; they play a vital role in what day-to-day life at the Gardens looks like. Stevenson explained that there are six residents who serve on the community’s board of directors, rather than the one voting member more commonly seen at retirement communities.

“I think from the very beginning, our founders wanted to make sure that the people, the community that is living here, was the driving force behind the direction we’re taking. And by giving such a powerful voting option to our residents, we’re ensuring that they have a strong voice and it will be listened to,” Stevenson said.

In addition to the board of directors, all residents at Mt. San Antonio Gardens are part of The Gardens Club, which oversees more than 70 resident volunteer committees, activity groups and board committee groups. That includes committees ranging from finance to party planning.

This elevated level of participation and satisfaction comes from The Gardens’ approach to senior living, which uses what is called the Green House approach to senior living. This approach to elder care hinges upon autonomy, meaningful engagement and the creation of deinstitutionalized living.

The Green House model is an alternative to the stereotypical nursing home environment in which residents live more independently in a homelike environment. This approach has shown a superior quali-

ty of life for residents, better staff ratios, and improved caretaker satisfaction. According to Stevenson, Mt. San Antonio Gardens is the only care facility in California that offers the Green House method of care.

Even though most of their residents are independent, Mt. San Antonio Gardens offers assisted living, memory care, high acuity assisted living and skilled nursing facilities. If incoming residents wish to choose the Life Care Contract, they have unlimited access to those services without a change in their monthly fee.

Other amenities available to residents include a Wellness Center with exercise facilities and massage therapy, a yearround outdoor heated swimming pool, a nine-hole putting green, a salon, cutting and rose gardens, a business center and more.

When residents move into The Gardens, they are moving into their own living space that they have autonomy over. Stevenson said she tells prospective residents not to fall too in love with the photos or any single floor plan because no two units are the same. Many of the past residents, she said, have made their own alterations, and staff is happy to accommodate any changes incoming residents request.

see GARDEN page 18

03.23.23 | PASADENA WEEKLY 17 PW SENIORS
Sioux Bally-Maloof/Contributing photographer Many of the residences at Mt. San Antonio Gardens are stand-alone buildings, like this cottage. They are designed to feel like home, and residents have the freedom to customize their space any way they desire. Residents at Mt. San Antonio Gardens love community and often gather for committee meetings, clubs, events and parties.

“When someone is offered a home, they’re invited on campus to tour. We will go through and talk about things they might want to change. … If they want to push a wall out, to the extent we’re able to do that, we will accommodate. We’ve had people add bathrooms and full bedrooms. Someone just remodeled a cottage, and it’s bigger than my house,” Stevenson said jokingly.

Incoming single residents may choose from a range of studios (375 to 470 square feet), one-bedroom apartments (565 to 830 square feet) and one- to two-bedroom cottages (717 to 1,050 square feet). Incoming couples can choose from two-bedroom cottages (1,170 to 1,250) and two-bedroom terrace homes (1,470 square feet to 1,550 square feet).

Even though many of the floor plans available have kitchens, in case the residents are passionate about cooking, The

Gardens offers three meals a day, with food always available in the dining areas. Residents also receive housekeeping, utilities and ground maintenance included in their monthly fees.

One of the most important things, Stevenson emphasized, is the cost of living at Mt. San Antonio Gardens is predictable and fixed upon entry. Residents know exactly how much their monthly fee will be and how much costs will increase if they need additional care, depending on their contract.

“Without the worry of future health care needs and catastrophic costs, or the responsibilities of homeownership, Gardens’ residents can relish their independence and enjoy all the pleasures and comforts of home with more time for the pursuits that matter most to them and the assurance they will receive care, should they need it, for the rest of their lives,” Stevenson said.

CASE NO. 22 STPB 12326 To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both of LURLINE V. BROWN.

A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by Delroy E. Linton and Leroy A. Linton in the Superior Court of California, County of LOS ANGELES.

THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that: Delroy E. Linton and Leroy A. Linton be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

THE PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.)

The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

A HEARING on the petition will be held in this court as follows:

Date: April 11, 2023, Time: 8:30 AM, Dept.: 44, Location: 111 North Hill Street Los Angeles, CA 90012. IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney. IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in

California law. YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code Section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

SUPERIOR COURT OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES

Case No.: 229SCV01630

DONGYI (USA) TRADING GROUP, INC., a California corporation;

Plaintiff, vs. SUNSHINE EDUCATION ACADEMY, a California corporation; WENYING SUN, an individual; and DOES 150, inclusive,

Defendants

COMPLAINT FOR (1) BREACH OF FIDUCIARY DUTY (2) SHAREHOLDER’S DERIVATIVE

ACTION FOR DAMAGES DUE TO BREACH OF FIDUCIARY DUTY (3) ACCOUNTING –REQUEST FOR APPOINTMENT OF RECEIVER

Plaintiff DONGYI (USA)

TRADING GROUP, INC. (hereinafter referred to as “Plaintiff”), in the above-enti tled matter hereby allege the following: THE PARTIES

1. Plaintiff DONGYI (USA) TRADING GROUP, INC. (hereinafter referred to as “Plaintiff” or “Dongyi”) is a California corporation headquartered and doing the business of investment in Los Angeles County. Plaintiff is the 51% shareholder of Defendant SUNSHINE EDUCATION ACADEMY since November 2018.

2. Plaintiff is further informed and believes and hereon alleges that Defendant SUNSHINE EDUCATION ACADEMY (hereinafter referred to as or “Sunshine”) is a California corporation headquartered and doing the child education business Los Angeles County.

3. Plaintiff is informed and believes and hereon alleges that Defendant WENYING SUN (hereinafter referred to as “Sun”) is a resident of Los Angeles County, California. Plaintiff is further informed and believes and hereon alleges that Defendant Sun is a 49% shareholder of Defendant Sunshine since November 2018 and she has been the CEO and the General Manager of of Sunshine.

4. Plaintiff is informed and believes and thereon alleges that the true names and capacities, whether individual, corporate, associate or otherwise, of Defendants Does 1 through 50, inclusive, are unknown to Plaintiff, and therefore sues said Defendants by such fictitious names. Plaintiff will seek leave to amend this Complaint to allege the true names, identities, and capacities of said Defendants when they have been ascertained. Plaintiff is informed and believes, and thereon alleges, that said Defendants are responsible in some manner for the events alleged in this Complaint.

5. At all times mentioned herein, Defendants, and each of them, were the agents, servants, and employees of each of the other Defendants, and at all times mentioned herein, were acting within the scope of said agency and employment, with the consent and ratification of the other Defendants herein. Plaintiff is informed and believes, and thereon alleges that each of the fictitious Defendants is responsible for, and has contributed to, the matters hereinafter related giving rise to the damage suffered by Plaintiff, and Plaintiff therefore alleges each and every cause of action hereinafter set forth

against each such Defendant and asks that their identity, capacity and particulars of the activities of each such Defendant may be incorporated herein by appropriate amendment hereto.

6. ALTER EGO: Plaintiff is informed and believes and therefore alleges that Defendant Sunshine, and at all times herein mentioned, was alter ego of Defendant Sun. Plaintiff is informed and believes, and thereon alleges that there exists, and at all times mentioned herein, a unity of interest and ownership between Defendant Sunshine and Defendant Sun, such that any individuality and separateness between the individual Defendant Sun and the business entity Defendant Sunshine have ceased. Defendant Sun have, at all times, exercised control and dominion over Defendant Sunshine with a disregard for the separate legal status of the entity in an attempt to defraud

Plaintiff. Adherence to the separate existence of Defendant Sunshine as separate entities distinct and separate from Defendant Sun would permit an abuse of the corporate privilege and would sanction fraud and promote injustice.

JURISDICTION AND VANUE

7. This Court is the proper court and this action is properly filed in Los Angeles County because Defendants’ obligations and lability arise therein and Defendants are residents in the County of Los Angeles.

FACTUAL ALLEGATIONS

8. Defendant Sunshine was established in September 2016 in the city of El Monte. Sunshine has been operating a successful child education business in the local community. Sunshine was fully owned by Defendant Sun until November 2018.

9. Plaintiff was established in 2017 and it later determined to invest an education business in Southern California.

In November, 2018, Plaintiff and Defendant Sunshine entered into an Investment Agreement, in which Plaintiff agreed to invest $200,000 in Defendant Sunshine for 51% its shares. Plaintiff duly paid the said investment amount and became the 51% shareholder of Sunshine afterwards.

10. Because Plaintiff’s owner is currently living in China, after Plaintiff invested Sunshine, Sunshine is, and has been during all relevant period of time, operated, managed and controlled by

Defendant Sun only. Defendant Sun had been the director, officer, manager of Sunshine for all time.

11. In early 2022, Plaintiff requested Defendants, and each of them, to provide certain financial documents of Sunshine because Plaintiff was preparing a non-immigration petition for its owner to enter the United States. However, Defendant Sun had steadfastly refused to produce them. Plaintiff later confronted Defendant Sun for the reason of stonewalling and much to his surprise, Sun admitted that in early 2020, she already closed the schools of Sunshine. She also admitted that she relocated the office of Sunshine and had discharged all the teachers of the school. Sunshine currently has no students at all.

12. Defendants, and each of them, has never informed Plaintiff the they had determined to close the business and to discharge all employees, nor did they obtain any consent from Plaintiff before they determined to do so. In the meantime, however, Defendant Sun has been continuously posting news and articles in social medias reflecting that the school is still operating.

13. Plaintiff also discovered that Defendant Sun owns or manages other entities which does the similar business directly in competition with Sunshine during the time she was the director, officer and manager of Sunshine.

14. Plaintiff then demanded Defendants, and each of them, to produce all financial records of Sunshine and demanded Defendant Sun to disclose all the information about the competing business she owns or manages for the past three years. Until the time this complaint is filed, all Plaintiff’s such demands have been ignored by Defendants, and each of them.

FIRST CAUSE OF AC-

TION (Breach of Fiduciary

Duty) (Against Defendant Sun)

15. Plaintiff incorporates by this reference all allegations of paragraphs 1 – 14, inclusive, above, as though fully set forth.

16. Defendant Sunshine was established in September 2016 in the city of El Monte. Sunshine has been operating a successful child education business in the local community. Sunshine was fully owned by Defendant Sun until November 2018.

17. Plaintiff was established in 2017 and it later determined to invest

an education business in Southern California.

In November, 2018, Plaintiff and Defendant Sunshine entered into an Investment Agreement, in which Plaintiff agreed to invest $200,000 in Defendant Sunshine for 51% its shares. Plaintiff duly paid the said investment amount and became the 51% shareholder of Sunshine afterwards.

18. Because Plaintiff’s owner is currently living in China, after Plaintiff invested Sunshine, Sunshine is, and has been during all relevant period of time, operated, managed and controlled by Defendant Sun only. Defendant Sun had been the director, officer, manager of Sunshine for all time.

19. As a director, officer, and manager of Sunshine, Defendant Sun therefore owns a fiduciary duty to Defendant Sunshine and its majority shareholder, Plaintiff Dongyi.

20. In early 2022, Plaintiff requested Defendants, and each of them, to provide certain financial documents of Sunshine because Plaintiff was preparing a non-immigration petition for its owner to enter the United States. However, Defendant Sun had steadfastly refused to indicated produce them. Plaintiff later confronted Defendant Sun for the reason of stonewalling and much to his surprise Sun admitted that in early 2020, she already closed the schools of Sunshine. She also admitted that she relocated the office of Sunshine and had discharged all the teachers of the school. Sunshine currently has no students at all.

21. Plaintiff also discovered that Defendant Sun owns or manages other entities which does the business directly competing with Sunshine during the time she was the director, officer and manager of Sunshine.

22. Defendant Sun, knowingly acted against Plaintiff’s interests.23. Defendants, and each of them, has never informed Plaintiff the they had determined to close the business and to discharge all employees, nor did they obtain any consent from Plaintiff before they determined to do so. In the meantime, Defendant Sun, has been continuously posting news and articles in social medias reflecting that the school is still operating.

24. As a result of Defendant Sun’s referenced

conduct, Plaintiff was harmed.

25. Defendant Sun, deliberately concealed the facts that she had closed the business of Sunshine and posted fake articles in social media to prevent Plaintiff from knowing such facts. Therefore, Defendants, and each of the, acted willfully, oppressively, maliciously, with conscious disregard of the right of Plaintiff and with the intent to annoy, harass, or injury Plaintiff such that Plaintiff is entitled to a recovery of punitive damages.

SECOND CAUSE OF ACTION

(Shareholder ’s Derivative Action)

(Against all Defendants)

26. Plaintiff incorporates by this reference all allegations of paragraphs 1 – 24, inclusive, above, as though fully set forth.

27. Plaintiff did not make any effort to secure action from Sun to prosecute this action for Sun’s breach of fiduciary duty because any such efforts would have been futile in that Sun is the CEO and manager of Sunshine, and Sun is the person who has and is breaching the fiduciary duty to the detriment of Plaintiff, Sunshine and Sunshine’s creditors.

28. If Plaintiff is successful in this action, a substantial benefit will result to Sunshine, on whose behalf this cause of action is prosecuted, and Plaintiff is entitled to its attorney’s fees and costs incurred herein against Sunshine and Sun in an amount according to proof.

THIRD CAUSE OF ACTION (Accounting) (Against all Defendants)

29. Plaintiff incorporates by this reference all allegations of paragraphs 1 – 28, inclusive, above, as though fully set forth.

30. Plaintiff has demanded an accounting of the profits and expenses earned and incurred by Sunshine and Defendants refused, and continued to fail and refuse to provide a full accounting of such profits and expenses to Plaintiff, without conditions or reservation.

31. Unless a receiver is appointed by the court to take possession of, care for, manage and operate the Sunshine’s business, assets and property, such property and assets are in danger of

being lost, removed, or materially destroyed, in that Defendant Sun is in control of Sunshine’s business and was and is

applying Sunshine’s assets for her own personal use, in excess of her interest in and without proper approval of Sunshine.

PRAYER

WHEREFORE, plaintiff prays judgment against Defendants as follows:

(a) For damages in the amount to be determined according to proof.

(b) Punitive Damage in an excess of jurisdicti onal limits in an amount according to proof. (c) For an court order for appointing a receiver and accounting of the profits and expenses eared and incurred by Defendant Sunshine after November 2018.

(d) For costs of suit herein incurred, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.

(e) Interest as provided by law; and

(f) For such other and further relief as the court may deem proper.

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 this property.
