Mr. Gulati had never played guitar from this lofty perspective before but it was noisy at his house and he was looking for some peace and quiet. The vantage was also a nice place to take in the sunset, which was quite amazing due in part to tropical moisture that has come into the area lately.

California v. Texas
Dear Editor: Donna Lowe, in her interview with the COURIER published Saturday, September 8, offers as one of her major campaign themes that California must become more business-friendly in order to compete with neighboring states. Ms. Lowe claims that California ranks 50th among states in businessfriendliness. The studies I know of rank California 40th in business-friendliness and 48th in Business Tax Climate. But no matterCalifornia is without doubt way down the list. However, is what is measured by those studies all there is to an evaluation of the quality of life in a state? Surely not. Compare what else is true of Texas (from which Ms. Lowe departed to live in Claremont), which ranks 1st in business-friendliness and very high up the list of low-tax states. The 2011 report Texas on the Brink from the Legislative Study Group in the Texas legislature (Google it to see the entire report) compares Texas to all the other states in many categories of human well-being. In earnings of manufacturing workers, Texas ranks 38th; it is 46th in percentage of residents who see a dentist; lst in the number of executions; 50th in percentage of residents with a high school diploma; near last in SAT scores; 50th in air quality; 50th in water quality; 50th in percent of pregnant women who get prenatal care in the first trimester; 46th in percentage of children living in poverty; and 49th in percentage of people with food insecurity. The account could go on and on. (See Gail Collins recent As Texas Goes... for much more.) Texas is, from the point of view of human flourishing, a failed state. But are they ever businessfriendly! Poor California! Lets become a low-tax, low-service state so that we can become competitive with Texas.

Liu will continue her quest for improving education
n 2000, Senator Carol Liucurrently serving the former 21st Senate Districtmade the switch from teacher to state legislator in order to make a bigger difference in her local school district. Twelve years later, the tireless advocate for education hopes to continue her crusade in the newly-redistricted 25th district, developing relationships and dialogue with her fellow senators despite the difficult political climate.
Q. What drew you to state legislature? A. Education policy. You can only go so far in your local district; the money comes from Sacramento, and its been that way since Prop 13. You have to have a ticket at the table in order to make some changes, and that is the primary thing that drove me to Sacramento. Q. What made you want to go from state assembly to senate? A. Six years is too short. There is no long-term thinking. You know where the bathroom is, but you can hardly get your teeth into long-term public policy. Q. Why are you running for reelection? A. I love working on the policy issues. I love the idea that we can problem-solve these things together. There are many, many things we need to work together on regarding infrastructure, education and dealing with human resources that we have or dont have. I do think all these things are solvable, and Im committed to working on them until I get too tired. Q. What do you consider to be your greatest achievement in the state legislature? A. It all relates to education. The policies and bills I have carried really try to articulate a vision as to where we need to be for our public schools. I chaired the higher education committee when I was in the state assembly and I have sat on the education committee throughout my entire career. My more recent legislation deals with the community colleges. There are about 2 million people in the state of California that attend our community colleges, and 7 percent of them do not obtain an associates degree or transfer to a 4-year school. I carried a piece of legislation that would reward completion rates. Everybody just roared about thatthey were really upset because they did not want to be

so that we can get the students in and out and make it more efficient. That is a huge goal of mine. I would like to have a dialogue about what is going on. Q. Speaking of dialogue, you have admitted that our state legislature is now facing its most challenging time. The recession is Q&A taking its toll ELECTION 2012 and partisan politics are not helping. What changes need to be made and how will you make those changes happen if youre re-elected? A. The Republicans are split amongst themselves as to their programs and policies. As we were ending this last session, I had a bill (SB 204) that would sell excess houses on the 710 freeway that the Republican analysis of the bill said to oppose. But the Republican leader Bob Huff came over to me and said, I know the analysis said oppose, but Im going to stand up and support the bill. He knows about the 710 freeway and its history, and he sees that having the money go back to the locals to improve their local highways makes perfect sense rather than going back to the general fund, which the Republican analysis supported. Bob got it and he was able to vote for the bill and carried some other Republican votes. It was a bipartisan thing. Bob and I have a history. We sat on education together, and I gave him a vote on a bill that he carried dealing with Diastat, a syringe administered to kids who have seizures. Because there are not enough nurses at the school site, it gave volunteers the opportunity to administer the Diastat to prevent kids from seizing up. The nurses were adamantly opposed to the bill because they didnt want anybody but themselves administering the Diastat. For me, it came down to the kid suffering a seizure, or the nurses that didnt want the Diastat administered without their OK. I gave Bob the vote because, for me, its about the kid. We are only there for the children. Bob and I have a nice history together but because of term limits, you dont really have the opportunity to get to know your fellow legislature very well. Off-season, we [legislators] have the chance to travel together. People call them junkets, but I call them learning experiences. You get to know each other and your spouses get to know each other and you begin to talk about the things you have in common. All the issues become more human; you understand where people come from. Q. So for you, the key might be getting to know one another beyond party designation? A. Its very tough for [Republicans] from a policy standpoint to be
friendly, and the inability really to sit down and work out some issues because they just cant get over certain ideologies is very difficult. But Im the optimist, and on certain issues we did come together. Though they werent big steps, we did some pension reform together this year and some modification of workers compensation that had bipartisan support. We dont usually fight over education issues. Q. Other than education, what are some of your other focuses if reelected? A. California really needs tax reform. We cant keep on raising taxes and expecting people to pick it up until the state can perform. We are also going to take another look at CEQA reform and pensions. We need to look at efficiency in the way we handle the multitude of issues that face us. We also need to look at the impact of the cuts made to government-provided services. With this great recession we have just come through, we have cut the lifeline to many of the services the state has provided. What kind of impact has that created among people here in California? Dealing with these things might take a couple years. We have to go back and do some cleanup, Im sure we do. There is never a shortage of issues. Q. The Gold Line is another focus of yours. How will you aid its extension despite the current conflicts with funding? A. Getting that Gold Line extended out through Ontario is a priority for me in this district. I havent spoken directly with Congresswoman Judy Chu (running for the 27th Congressional District, including Claremont), but I do know that its a priority for her as well. I would wholeheartedly support giving federal dollars and matching dollars. Q. How will you channel your successes along the way into the new 25th Senate District? A. The redistricting is a real opportunity here to meet new people, to see if there are some commonalities and what things we can work together on. Most important to me is working for the kids. Thats where our future is: giving kids the opportunity to be successful. Thats where we need to be investing our monies. Visit www.carolliu.com for more on Ms. Lius policy and campaign issues.
kept that accountable. The bill was finally successful when we amended it to create a task force to look at how we could move forward and get more student success out of the community college system. The task force came up with 22 recommendations and we have subsequently taken some of those recommendations and are now making them into law. We are putting a lot of pressure on the community college system to change the way they behave to make sure it is student-oriented and to guarantee that people who go into our colleges get out with some kind of degree or certificate or move on with their lives. Changing the behavior [of these institutions] is very difficult, and I have not been very popular with some faculty members, but its not about adults for me. Its about the kids. Its about the students that need the services and need to get focused. Q. Another strong focus of yours is the state colleges, which you have said are the most vulnerable.What makes the state system so vulnerable? A. Of the 3 systems we have, the state colleges are the most vulnerable because they totally depend upon the state for their resources and when the state doesnt have the resources, they really get hit. Q. If re-elected, what is your plan to try and help? A. I had a conversation with the governor, and his main concern is the cost of colleges today and the ability to get out. Why does it take 6 years to get out of the CSU system? It costs the state more money the longer these kids stay in school. We are trying to figure out a way to unplug the system

Construction at Wilderness Park halted by LA County
onstruction on the pay parking lot at the Wilderness Park is on hold, awaiting review and approval of the plans from the LA County Flood Control District (LACFCD).
Early last week, the city of Claremont was contacted by a representative from the LACFCD regarding the construction of the new parking lot for the Wilderness Park, claiming it was un-
aware of the construction project, according the city managers report. According to the report, LACFCD requested that the city stop construction until plans can be reviewed by its representatives. City staff was aware that the LACFCD had an easement on the property, however, they were not aware that the LACFCD had authority over construction taking place, as the city had previously gained permission from the landowner, Pomona Valley Protective Agency, to move forward with construction, the report states.
The citys contractor was directed to stop construction until staff met with LACFCD representatives, at which time they explained that they must review and approve all plans for construction projects inside its easement boundaries and issue a construction permit. LACFCD requested that the city submit a formal application to start the review process, which typically takes about a month. As a result of its review, the LACFCD may impose conditions on the design and scope of the construc-
tion of the parking lot. The LACFCD will also require that the city enter into an agreement that, among other things, will indemnify the LACFCD from claims and damages that may result from the parking lot being within their easement area, the city manager explains in his report. Construction cannot resume until the city receives a construction permit from the LACFCD and the agreement between both parties is executed. The north parking lot will remain open until construction resumes.
Just the right fit for Claremonts community development
athleen Trepa first stepped foot in Claremont about 2 years ago, scouting out the city as a potential fit for her college-age daughter. At the time, she didnt know that Claremont would become her own perfect fit.
I thought, This is a community like home to me, said the New England native. I would really like to live and work for this town...and the stars just aligned for me. Ms. Trepa has finally made the move to Claremont as she steps into her post as the citys new director of community CITY and human services, taking up resiSTAFF dence in a Claremont apartment as she settles into her new hometown. Ms. Trepa replaces former director Michele McNeill, who vacated the position last February. In her second week of work, Ms. Trepaa local government guru for more than 20 years has hardly relaxed as she finds herself with a full workload, but she insists its her natural element. Despite her eagerness and expertise, the community services and management aficionado insists she is delving into her new position with a blank slate. Im coming in with no preconceived notions, Ms. Trepa said. I want to come in here and really get to know the issuesget to know the staff and the community. Though impassioned by her industry, working with community development on a local level wasnt the vision she initially had for herself. Ms. Trepa graduated from Boston University with a history degree and every intention of pursuing foreign affairs in Spain. Preparing to take her state department exam, she stumbled into local government work as an intern with the city of San Juan Capistrano. I started to realize that, for most people, their communities, schools, parks and crime rates is really what is most important, Ms. Trepa said. Most people dont think about international or foreign policy. An internship at Capitol Hill following her work in San Juan Capistrano made up her mind for good. I thought, These people [at the state and federal level] are so far removed that they really dont understand what concerns most Americans. Thats how I landed into local government and began working in a lot of different program areas. Ms. Trepa takes up her post in Claremont following a long career with the city of San Marcos. She began working in the San Marcos city managers office in 1989, dabbling in a little bit of everything, from waste management to cable franchise and affordable housing. There was little Ms. Trepa didnt do in terms of community development and community services.
COURIER photo/Steven Felschundneff Kathleen Trepa is the new director of community and human services for the city of Claremont. She came to the city from San Marcos, where she worked intermittently for the last 23 years.
San Marcos has really been my unofficial home off and on for about 23 years, she said. Among her numerous posts within the city of San Marcos, it was her work in helping to write block grants and assisting a group of mobile home renters toward ownership in the late 1990s that left her the most satisfied. In order to access about $1 million in block grant funding from the state, she was required to have 50 percent of those park residents lined up and able to purchase their spaces by midnight on Halloween. I set up shop in their ping-pong room, which served as my loan office for 3 months, Ms. Trepa said. I was working full-time as a single parent, bringing work home, getting the kids in bed, sitting up at the kitchen table. I wasnt even home for Halloween. It was all worth it, she concedes. It was a tremendous effort, but we made the goal and I think I went over by maybe 2 loans...and then I took a 2-week vacation, she laughed. That was probably the biggest push I have ever had to make on behalf of my community. Instead of feeling cramped in an old ping-pong room and bogged down by the stress, Ms. Trepa says she found an outlet for new opportunity. I began to really know these people, Ms. Trepa said. I got invited to potlucks and barbecues and
got to know their families. You are processing their loans for them so you are getting into financials, who lives in their homes and what their issues are, and you really become a part of the fabric of that community. For me, that was the most fulfilling. Ms. Trepa was forced to leave her work with San Marcos for a brief period of time to take over the family business after the sudden passing of her father in 2000. Six years in the private sector proved her passion remained in working with the public. I really liked working with the factory people, but I really wasnt fulfilled by the type of work being driven by making a profit and staying alive, she said. I really missed my community-based work and ended up returning to San Marcos. Ms. Trepa was given the opportunity to return to work with San Marcos and jumped at the chance before making the move to Claremont 6 years later. While brand-new to her post in Claremont, Ms. Trepa has lost no time getting up to date on the issues. She is already diving right into the citys Wilderness Loop parking issues, and eagerly anticipates much more to come. I look forward to becoming really well-versed in the communitys issues and the history, Ms. Trepa said.
Mondays stinky air is gone with the wind
he source of a pungent smell that plagued Southland communities throughout the day Monday was likely a mix of hot air and pollutants trapped in the atmosphere, according to Claremont fire officials.
Investigation continues into the rotten-egg odor that has been reported in communities throughout Los Angeles, Riverside and San Bernardino counties. Fire officials maintain that there is no specific hazard associated with the smell. Claremont firefighters contend that the odor rests in an inversion layer caused by the rising temperatures. An
inversion takes place when a layer of warmer air traps cooler air below it, according to information provided by the Weather Channel blog. As a result, pollutants like smoke or smog are stopped from rising higher into the atmosphere. The air doesnt have anywhere to escape, Bryan Mcilrevey, firefighter and paramedic with Claremont Fire Station 101, explained Monday afternoon. The South Coast Air Quality Management District, whose offices were closed Monday, attributed the sulfur smell to the decaying Salton Sea. The air condition is typically experienced in the Coachella Valley during fall and winter, although the SCAQMD cannot positively identify the source of the scent.
Several factors indicate that the Salton Sea may have been the source of these odors, said Barry Wallerstein, executive officer for the South Coast Air Quality Management District (AQMD), in a press release. However we do not have any definitive evidence to pinpoint the Salton Sea or any other source yet. AQMD deployed field inspectors on Monday to the San Fernando Valley, Long Beach, Colton, San Bernardino, Riverside, Perris, Temecula, Banning, Palm Springs, La Quinta and the Salton Sea in an attempt to locate the source of the odor. The SCAQMD determined 5 factors causing the decay of the Salton Seas. They are: 1) the high salinity of the sea, which is caused by the salt influx
from irrigation runoff (especially Selenium, a sulfur-like element); 2) The high evaporation rate; 3) lack of sea outlet; 4) Inflow of untreated water from Mexico through the New River; and 5) Algae decomposition after a planktonic boom. More from the SCAQMDs findings can be found at www.aqmd.gov/ complain/saltonseaodor.html. The wind should blow the smell out, Mr. Mcilrevey assured the public. Without a formal statement from the SCAQMD, the cause of the odor is still anyones guess. However, as Mr. Mcilrevey projected, the smell did dissipate as the day progressed and the onshore wind picked up.

Progress made to resolve residents concerns over complex
ecent dialogue with a Claremont property owner is helping to dispel residential concerns regarding a multi-unit complex proposed for a vacant space at Vista Drive and Indian Hill Boulevard.
Following a meeting held last week, officials from The Olson Company in escrow for the unused plothave been able to find common ground with residents of the adjacent neighborhood despite initial disagreement on the best use for the vacant south Claremont lot. In the wake of news last July that an expanse of 2-story homes in a complex totaling 26 single-family units was proposed for development, residents flooded the City Council Chamber in stark opposition.
We werent anti any development, said Jim Keith, one of the residents. We just wanted to make sure it was quality development. It looks like that is going to happen now. With community input gathered at that first meeting, John Reekstin, senior vice president of The Olson Company, sat down with Mr. Keith and about 30 other residents last week to discuss changes. Chief among initial concerns was the developers proposed rezoning of the lot to accommodate a higher density. Though the developer believed increasing the density makes sense with the surrounding area, residents feel otherwise. Id rather have the occasional coyote walk by than the additional traffic, said resident Adrienne Douglas in an interview following the initial meeting. Ms. Douglas additionally noted that the rest of the neighborhood is comprised of single story homes in contrast to the
2-stories within the proposal. Another residential concern was safety with increased pedestrian activity along Indian Hill, as well as the layout of the complex. Having the garages detached from the homes, for example, seemed inconvenient for potential homeowners, according to Mr. Keith. The layout, with the backside of the homes facing the rest of the neighborhood, seemed likely to isolate complex residents from the rest of the existing neighborhood. It looked to us like place where people wouldnt want to stay for very long, Mr. Keith said. Numerous residents felt likewise. Taking into consideration these concerns, Mr. Reekstin announced the number of units within the complex have been reduced from 26 to 21 with the current zoning remaining the same. Units will now have attached garages, those along Vista Drive will now face
north with front doors facing the street and a wall will be set back along Indian Hill Drive with an entrance. Its important to us to work cooperatively with the neighborhoods and hold public meetings early in the process to gather input and to revise our plans accordingly, said Mr. Reekstin, who is eager to add The Olson Companys second Claremont development. The Orange County-based company has also developed the Village Walk next to the Packing House. With revised plans, Mr. Reekstin hopes to have a new proposal submitted to the city by November. We have wanted to come back and build again in the city of Claremont, he said. There is not a whole lot of home production [in Claremont], and we feel this complex will be very much in demand.
Shopping with mom

by Debbie Carini
rocery shopping is not a chore for me. Its actually something I enjoy doing. I liken it to some primal need to care for my familyyet instead of hunting a saber-tooth tiger and conking it over the head with a woolly mammoth femur bone, I am armed with my coupons, my savings card and my reusable bags.
When I was a child, I liked to shop with my mom. The market was like traveling through the world: the North Polethe freezer section with its frosty doors and ice-caked boxes of vegetables (not so exciting to me) and tubs of rainbow-colored ice creams and sherbets (of considerable interest to me); the tropicsthe fruit section with bananas, grapes and oranges (and of course, right nearby, horrible-looking and smelly vegetables like brussel sprouts, kale and beets); and what I like to think of as the Midwesta lot of aisles in-between holding the pasta, ketchup, cake mixes and so many other basics, especially cereal boxes loaded with prizes!
Sometimes we got Green Stamps or Blue Chip Stamps as a bonus and those would later have to be licked and pasted down in books that would eventually be traded for snack tray sets or matching plaid luggage or a miniature grandfather clock for the mantle. Almost every time, I got a penny (Im so old!) for the gumball dispenser, or on an extra-special day, a nickel for the machine that held rings and trinkets and bouncy balls. When I became the mom pushing 2 tots through the lanes of sugary cereals and dayglo-colored juice drinks, I started to fully understand my mothers earlier admonishments not to hang on to the cart and pull it in the wrong direction! (In those early years, I liked to think of the cart as a trolley car, and I often clung to the side, causing it to veer violently towards glass mayonnaise jars).
Shopping with children is like trying to do homework with the TV onnearly impossible! How many things did I buy just to secure a moments peace? Yogurt in a plastic tube, juice drinks in aluminum packets (with a straw that was as hard to insert as an IV drip), chewy snacks that looked an awful lot like candy, but were vitamin C enhanced (perhaps, on the conveyer belt in the factory, they came into contact with a jar of vitamin C?). Now that my youngest is safely ensconced in college (well, as safe as you can be when youre posting pictures of yourself and your new friends lying in the middle of a street on Facebook.), Ive taken to shopping with my mom once again. We walk to the neighborhood farmers market on Sunday morning and then head off to the grocery store. We buy nutritious fruits and vegetables, talk about new recipes and share ideas for leftovers and day-old bread. And if we happen to fall under the spell of some incredibly potent new product, we are also there for each other to say, Step away from the spray-on salad dressing. Its what mothers and daughters should do for each other.
His turn on the carousel: Memories of the LA County Fair

by Sarah Torribio
his past weekend, I took my son Alex, 3 1/2, to the Los Angeles County Fair. Accompanied by my parents, who took me to the fair each year when I was a kid, I had an acute sense of the cyclical nature of life.
On the one hand, I could easily have eschewed the annual festivities. Thanks to a recent confluence of events that found me registering, smogging and repairing my car within a 2-day period, I wasnt in the market for $4 soft serve ice cream cones and $5 cotton candy. (Thank God for my parents, with their deeper pockets and preschooler-inspired generosity. As author Alex Haley once wrote, Nobody can do for little children what grandparents do. Grandparents sort of sprinkle stardust over the lives of little children.) This wasnt about practicality. This was about exposing my son to whirling, swirling, neon-lit Ferris wheels and to pungentsmelling, hand-nuzzling farm animalsto a vast panorama of people leaving the recession behind for a few hours to engage in public merriment. It was time for Alex to make some memories. It was 7:30 p.m. when we arrived, and the fun was in full flower as we strolled the Fairplex with Alex ensconced in a rented stroller shaped like a red race car. ($10. Ka-ching!) Everywhere you looked, something interesting, even bordering on the surreal, was underway.

OBITUARIES
Maurice Paul Bertino

Custodian, athlete, theater-lover
Maurice Bertino, a longtime fixture in the Claremont and Mt. Baldy communities, died on July 6, 2012 at Kaiser Permanente Hospital in Hollywood. He was 80. Mr. Bertino was born April 18, 1932 to Joseph and Angelina Bertino, 3 years after the Wall Street Crash heralded the start of the Great Depression. The youngest of 3 children, Mr. Bertino grew up in the tightly-knit Italian community of Guasti, just east of nearby Ontario. With the enactment of prohibition from 1920 to 1933, economic troubles came early to Guasti. In a memorial written for Mr. Bertino, a longtime friend shared that, The elements of struggle in the lives of the grapegrowing Italian families and their children were, for Maurice, offset by the freedom of the open countryside. Mr. Bertinos father operated a service station and garage hed opened in 1924. Now run by Joseph Bertinos grandchildren, Bertinos Automotive Service is still flourishing in Rancho Cucamonga today. While Mr. Bertino did not inherit his fathers passion for automobiles, he was drawn to athletics from an early age, competing on the swim team at Chaffey High School, from which he graduated in 1949. As a teenager, Mr. Bertino also worked at the Mt. Baldy Ski Tows in exchange for free skiingalongside friends Bob Bentley, Larry Upham, Charles Fagg and Harvey Stonepioneering many of the runs at Baldy long before the local ski patrol was organized. In fact, Mr. Bertino is credited with naming the most harrowing ski run on Mt. Baldy. Mr. Stone recounted a day when the youthful band of daredevils hiked up past a run named Bentleys Dream. The run next to it was nearly vertical, as steep as ski runs get, and conditions were icy that day. Mr. Bertino suddenly slipped and half-skied, half-slid out of view. Fearing the worst, his friends skied down after him and found him at the bottom, dazed but still in one piece. From that day forward, the run carried the moniker Bertinos Nightmare, although over the decades the name has been shortened to Nightmare. At 56 and 125 pounds, Mr. Bertino may have been on the smaller side, but he was also wiry and determined. After being drafted into the army during the Korean War in 1952, he was interviewed by a lieutenant at Fort Ord, who asked him what he wanted to do. Mr. Bertino immediately answered that he wanted to be in the Special Forces. Dont you mean Special Services? the lieutenant asked. You look like a tap dancer to me. Mr. Bertino, unfazed by cracks about his size, went on to train in the Special Forces in Fort Bragg, North Carolina, becoming a Green Beret. As it was toward the Fine Arts Pavilion of the Los Angeles County Fair under the direction of Richard Petterson and his wife Alice. Between his love of athletics and his community engagement, Mr. Bertino was often out and about. Katy Hertels father Carl Hertel taught art at Pitzer College, where Mr. Bertino participated in the Thompson Creek Ranch Project among others, and he and Mr. Bertino became longtime friends. She remembers a memorable encounter with Mr. Bertino when he was in his mid-30s and she was perhaps 11. He was coming down the sidewalk doing a handstand on a skateboard, she said, noting that she never forgot the image. Along with Mr. Bertinos worldly undertakings, there was also a kind of tranquil undertone to this life of action, according to his memorial tribute. Mr. Bertino read extensively, delighted in music particularly classical, Brazilian and jazzand never missed tackling the daily Sudoku puzzle in the Los Angeles Times. He built an extensive library of books and records that would serve him well when failing health drew him away from his cherished skiing. Mr. Bertino remained remarkably active into his late 70s. At 65, Mr. Bertino took to the air, becaming a member of the United States Hang Gliding Association, member # 48317. At age 76, he skied Mt. Hood in Oregon and, 2 years ago, a 78-year-old Mr. Bertino hit the slopes of Mountain High with his nephew Charlie Bertino. He did really well, Charlie marveled. He was in super shapehe was Mr. Fitness. In his memorial essay, Mr. Bertinos longtime friend James Cooley emphasized the significance of the day he died. July 6 is not only the Dalai Lamas birthday, he noted, but also the anniversary of the death of 2 of Mr. Bertinos favorite contemporary figures; writer William Faulkner and musician Louis Armstrong both died July 6, in 1962 and 1971, respectively. In another dimension, these Fortean phenomenon might have had some astrological significance. But in our present dimension, they are merely-thought provoking coincidences to help assuage our grief, he wrote. Mr. Bertino is survived by his sister, Alberta Lawton; by his nephews, Charlie and Bud Bertino and Mike and Gary Lawton; by his nieces Julie Stendel, Nancy Foley and Karen Lipton; by a number of grand-nephews and grand-nieces and their children, and by many friends. The run now known simply as Nightmare also lives on in Mt. Baldy, continuing to tempt the bravest of local skiers. Sarah Torribio
end of the war, Mr. Bertino was never sent overseas, but he served 2 years, joining the reserves upon his honorable discharge. Upon his return to civilian life, he stepped back into his skis and, in his 20s, took up gymnastics, a pursuit that increased his capacity as a skier. Mr. Bertino won a number of prizes in downhill skiing competitions and, over the years, hit the slopes in the Grand Tetons, the Canadian and Eastern Rockies, the Cascades and the Sierra Nevadas as well as his beloved Baldy. Along with participation in sports, he was deeply engaged in artistic and intellectual pursuits. Mr. Bertino was a custodian at El Roble Intermediate School from 1974 to 1999, working a nightshift that allowed him time during the day to attend many of the impromptu artistic, literary and musical happenings that enlivened Claremont in the 1970s. In 1964, Mr. Bertino, already a fixture in the Claremont art community, served as the model for a rendering of Christ at the crucifixion, painted by the noted artist James Strombotne, who lived in town from the 1950s to the 1990s after attending Claremont Graduate School. Mr. Bertino was particularly passionate about theater, acting in productions by the Valley Community Theater and serving as a member of the stage crew at UCLA. He also enjoyed a seasonal gig installing exhibits in the

FOOTBALL: The Wolfpacks Craig Myers threw for 3 touchdowns as CHS downed the Walnut Mustangs 27-10 on Friday night for their first win. Coach Mike Collins sent his offense on the field with a different game plan from the week before, preferring to use untested quarterback Myers as a deep passer. He responded with gusto, completing 20 of 26 passes to his receivers. The Mustangs had no answer for wideout Baron Franklin, who caught 10 passes for 150 yards and 2 scores. Josh Ferrer and Joe Davis combined for over 30 tackles in the heart of the Pack defense to hold the Mustangs to only 10 points.

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. Notice is hereby given that RECONTRUST COMPANY, N.A., as duly appointed trustee pursuant to the Deed of Trust executed by MELISSA Y CRUZ AND EDGAR YLAGAN, WIFE AND HUSBAND, dated 04/13/2006 and recorded 4/21/2006, as Instrument No. 06 0876837, in Book , Page , of Official Records in the office of the County Recorder of Los Angeles County, State of California, will sell on 10/04/2012 at 9:00AM, Doubletree Hotel Los Angeles-Norwalk, 13111 Sycamore Drive, Norwalk, CA 90650, Vineyard Ballroom at public auction, to the highest bidder for cash or check as described below, payable in full at time of sale, all right, title, and interest conveyed to and now held by it under said Deed of Trust, in the property situated in said County and State and as more fully described in the above referenced Deed of Trust. The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 1086 SYRACUSE DRIVE, CLAREMONT, CA, 91711. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. The total amount of the unpaid balance with interest thereon of the obligation secured by the property to be sold plus reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is $709,779.45. It is possible that at the time of sale the opening bid may be less than the total indebtedness due. In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept cashier's checks drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state.

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 a 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 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 1-800-281-8219 or visit this Internet Web site www.recontrustco.com, using the file number assigned to this case TS No. 12-0051936.

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.
