A new mode of “rail” transportation and development is slowly coming into its own that will transform the way peo-ple travel. It’s called MAGLEV. It will be faster, quieter, and environmentally friendly. Unlike existing trains that run on tracks Maglev moves by magnetic

Salvadez Zuniga funeral services held

Artesia City Councilmember Sally Flowers lost her father, Salvador Zuni-ga, on Dec.23, Rosary was held at 4:30 p.m., Dec. 30. at St John of God Catho-lic Church in Norwalk. Burial Services were held at Artesia Cemetery, 11142 East. Artesia Blvd. in Cerritos followed by a reception at the Flower residence.

Salvador Hernandez Zuniga (“Sal” “Chava”) was born on March 6, 1927, in Arlington, California; an area he always referred to as Riverside. He was one of 13 children born to Abraham and Maria de la Luz Zuniga, who eventually made their home in La Habra, CA. They were a family of little means, but a great heart and a caring spirit.

To help make ends meet, Sal left school early in life to work. He labored as a migrant agricultural picker through-out Southern and Central California, working odd jobs during non-harvest times. He eventually settled in the field

Maglev Rail Transportation system moving closer to reality

During a recent Cerritos Optimists meeting , guest speaker and Transportation Consultant Al Perdon discussed proposed new rail lines in the United States using technology known as MAGLEV. These are trains propelled by magnetic levitation that never touch the railroad tracks, resulting in a silent run with speeds between 90 and 300 miles per hour. Germany, Japan and China have working models. The eco-nomics and money-making potential of the system have been called into question.

La Palma Mayor Ralph Rodriguez swears in Police Chief Eric Nunez in front of more than 100 guests at the Jan. 4 ceremony. “I’ve been to a lot of swearing-in cer-emonies, and this is the best one I have ever been to,” said La Palma Police Chief Eric Nunez, tongue firmly planted in cheek, at his own swearing-in ceremony at the La Palma Community Center. “I am blessed to have known so many people, includ-ing four police chiefs, who have groomed me for this position,” said Nunez, who has always been motivated to taking care of others after his father died when Nunez was just four-years-old.

In the past 100 years automobiles re-placed the “horse and buggy” which in turn were replaced by railroad trains for long distance travel. They in turn were

The 2010 Ellsies are out!Annual rating of CCPA shows by The Critic himself.

By Glen Creason

The sputtering economy has demand-ed belt-tightening at almost every level

of society, especially in my household but the heartbeat of culture still beats vi-brantly at the dear Cerritos Center for the Performing Arts.

After eighteen years of checking out shows at the great hall I find each and ev-ery season to be different and wonderful in its own way. This year was no differ-ent despite shorter seasons and a few less shows attended by this reviewer.

To Be or Not to Be…..By Jerry Bernstein

Normally this writer doesn’t write about state and national politics. But the recent announcement that Gover-nor Jerry Brown wants to take a look at Proposition 13 and the property tax limits placed on government when it was enacted in 1978 by a vote of the people has prompted me to comment.

It must be remembered that the people approved Proposition 13 when it became obvious those running the government were not paying attention to the homeowners of California who were

being taxed out of their homes. That was the reason the property tax measure was over-whelmingly approved by the people.

To say the imple-mentation of the property tax limits imposed by its passage is the cause for the state’s financial problems today is not entirely true. The politicians have stated Proposition 13 took away the power of local jurisdictions to tax leaving them dependent on the state to fund schools and local government. What is not mentioned is the other side of the coin. It took away the power to tax homeowners out of their homes.

Instead of listening to the people, Sacramento continued its “business as

usual.” Instead of living within the state’s means, the legislature kept approving programs upon programs that

eventually led the state into continued budget deficits.

The governor is correct that a major overhaul is needed on how the state fis-cally operates.

Proposition 13 needs to be tweaked, but the homeowners need to be pro-tected. Sacramento also needs to put restraints on the placing of propositions on the ballot. To many are placed there without any apparent thought as to whether the state can afford to imple-ment them if it passes. I always thought

that was what the legislature was elected to do. . Then again, if the legislature doesn’t know what it is doing,…….this bring up term limits. There is no ques-tion term limits need to be modified.

I could go on and on, but I don’t think that is necessary. I don’t like taxes anymore than the next person, but if they are necessary to help resolve the state’s continuous budget deficits, fine. But they need to be accompanied by an overhaul of state government. Our schools and colleges cannot be cut back much more without disastrous results to our chil-dren’s education.

Let’s give our newly elected gov-ernor a chance and hope he succeeds where his predecessor failed and let’s hope the legislature does what needs to be done.

As a matter of fact, 2010 held a few of the very best shows and performances I have enjoyed in my lengthy tenure at the Community News.

Some things stay sweetly the same as in the world’s greatest publicist/ press li-aison Lori Levine-Yonan who seems to anticipate like a clairvoyant while pro-ducing spots for the ink-stained wretches such as myself.

There are also old friends who seem never to age such as India Holloway, Tony Erdelji and the dapper house man-ager Alan Strickland.

Once again I found a box office staff overseen by ever-vigilant Nate Chavez and Cristopher Laroco that is nothing short of an all-star team of helpful and personable young people like Daniel Penland and Carla Madrid.

The technical crews absolutely outdid themselves in this year, transforming the Center stage into all manner of moods and sets from grand opera to a mining camp. The names remain the same but the magic just gets better with practice by Tom Hamilton, James King and Jeff Thielke along with helpers who make it look easy while it most certainly is not.

As the winds of change have blown through the center the ascendance of Di-ane Cheney to director is great news since that insures the integrity and future of the hall will be top drawer in every way.

As an admirer of the attitude and in-telligence of the box office operation I am anxious to see this same spirit energizing the highest levels at the CCPA. It IS the best theater in Southern California with-out a doubt. I also tip my battered Dodger cap to the Community News who man-aged to bat an impressive average of submission to printing of my opinions. Thank You all!

Without further ado, the 2010 Ell-sies:

E-Folk-Blues: January 15. Keb Mo and Susan Werner proved to be a doubly potent shot of musical talent and power. Keb Mo on his own can fill the hall up with a joyful noise but Werner put this

one over the top with multi-instrumental expertise and rich vocal accompaniment.

E-Dance: February 6. Lula Washing-ton Dance Theater. The Center has be-come one of the top venues for dance in the West and this amazing troupe was the best of the best in this year, especially Ta-mika Washington Miller, the assistant di-rector who is so hands on she performed the most memorable dancing of the night including key segments of the expansive “Ode to the Sixties” that was brimming with color, fluid movement and great mu-sic.

E-World: February 21. The Chief- February 21. The Chief- February 21. The Chieftains. You just cannot go wrong going to see and hear the Chieftains who keep changing their shape but staying true to the Irish core. The fantastic dancing Pi-latske brothers are worth the price of ad-mission alone but this show featured the great Ry Cooder playing with the band on the memorable “Cancion Mixteca.”

E-Classical Combination: February 28 Sarah Chang and Andrew Von Oeyen. Exuding class and magnificent command of the violin and piano they created one of the most delightful afternoons of the year including a dazzling performance of the contemporary composer Christopher Theofanida’s “Fantasy.”

E-Youth Be Served: March 15. Vien-na Boys Choir captivated an enthusiastic crowd of chorale music lovers with one winner after another including the surpris-ing and exquisitely beautiful Leonard Co-hen song “Hallelujah.”

E-Roots: April 3. Beausoleil. The is no cooler sight or sound than this Ameri-can national treasure of a band playing down home Cajun music. Michael Doucet is an icon that leads by having giant tal-ent evidenced in the playing of “Alligator Purse” that transformed Cerritos into the big Easy on this spring night.

E-Swing a ding ding: May 1. John Pizzarelli. The incredibly versatile croon-er-guitarist worked Sinatra-like magic at one of the best shows of the year. Draw-

ABC School Board President Maynard Law presents Grace Hu a plaque in recogni-tion of her $750,000 donation to the Whitney High School Multi-Media Training Facility to be constructed on the school campus. With them is Whitney Principal Patricia Hager. Upon accepting the plaque, Mrs. Hu thanked the board, the Whitney Parents Association and Whitney’s principal for the opportunity to do something for the community.. She said as a mother who raised three children and as a business-woman, she knows the value of education, which she said should be our priority. “This is a great honor, thank you.”

Illegal/unsafe drop-off of schoolchildren could result in hefty citationFrom City News Service

The illegal and unsafe loading and unloading of schoolchildren from cars onto roadways near schools is subject to a citation.

In an effort to improve public safety, a Cerritos ordinance implements a fine for the illegal and unsafe loading and unloading of schoolchildren from cars. A violation of the ordinance is subject to a $25 City fine; additional State and Coun-ty penalties attached to the citation bring the total fine to more than $135.

Near school locations, Cerritos resi-dents and traffic deputies have observed many adults routinely walking their chil-dren across busy streets outside of cross-walks. They have also observed people illegally parking their car, often in the middle of the block, and allowing their child to cross the street. This practice poses a safety risk, especially to young children. Some drivers also block drive-ways and fire hydrants in residential ar-eas while they unload passengers or walk their children to school.

In response to these safety risks, the Cerritos Municipal Code states the fol-lowing:

No driver may stop, park or leave his or her vehicle for the purpose of loading or unloading passengers unless the ve-hicle is legally parked.

No driver may stop, park or leave any vehicle in the roadway across from or adjacent to any public or private school for the purpose of loading or unload-ing anyone attending schools in grades K-12, where in order to reach the school or grounds from the vehicle or reach the vehicle from the school or grounds, it is necessary for a pedestrian to walk across a roadway. This section would be inap-plicable where traffic is controlled by a traffic officer, a school crossing guard, an official traffic control sign or signal, or where there is a marked pedestrian cross-walk that the pedestrian walks on.

When transporting children to and from school, parents are encouraged to park legally and escort their children across the street at a marked crosswalk. For more information, call the Cerritos Community Safety Division at (562) 916-1266.

Crime summaryDec. 27-Jan. 2

The Cerritos Sheriff’s Station report-ed that twenty-nine Part I felony crimes were investigated last week, up by one case over the previous week. Robberies, commercial burglaries, and vehicle bur-glaries increased, as residential burglar-ies, and vehicle thefts decreased. Calls for service handled by patrol deputies also increased from 310 to 321, but this is always anticipated for Holiday week-ends, especially one like New Years. The final 2010 weekly average in calls for service was 297.

One robbery was reported last week. A male suspect entered a retail store in the Towne Center and stole two laptop com-puters on Friday December 31 at 5:35 p.m. The suspect fled outside from an emergency exit and was followed by loss prevention personnel. As the suspect be-gan loading the laptops into a waiting car, the driver exited, displayed a handgun, and threatened employees into retreating. A latent fingerprint was lifted in the store and an ensuing investigation by Cerritos detectives resulted in an arrest and search warrant for the primary suspect and his residence. Property and evidence were recovered after the suspect was arrested. Detectives have sound leads on the sec-ond suspect.

Residential burglaries decreased again from seven the week before to five for this reporting period. Open/unlocked doors or windows were responsible for entry in three cases. Garage door open-ers were removed from vehicles parked

in driveways in the remaining incidents, and used to gain access to the garages and ultimately the residences. Laptop com-puters, currency, jewelry, bicycles, an air compressor, and a hose were stolen. The final 2010 weekly average in residential burglaries was 3.1.

There have been past reports where safes are taken from residences that were easily portable and had not been properly secured. If you choose to use this method of safekeeping property, make sure that the receptacle is firmly bolted into a foun-dation such as concrete, or connected to a structure support where prying it off is impossible. We recommend that you consult with a professional contractor be-fore installation, but suggest that you use a safe deposit box at your banking insti-tution to better protect these vital docu-ments and property.

There were two commercial burglar-ies reported last week. A lock was cut on a storage unit where tools were tak-en and a lock was cut on a storage cage where propane tanks were removed from a closed business. The 2010 weekly av-erage in commercial burglaries ended at 2.2.

Vehicle burglaries increased from three to eight last week. High-volume commercial parking lots were the crime scenes in four of the incidents last week. Six involved SUVs. Laptop computers, cameras, DVD players, a saw, backpacks, Christmas gifts, and a third-row seat from an SUV were stolen. The 2010 weekly average in vehicle burglaries ended 6.8.

Vehicle thefts dropped from seven to four last week. 2010 weekly average in vehicle thefts ended at 4.5.

Dr. Urban on Today’s Dentistry

Dental decay-disease or life style?

As dental students we were taught the skills to repair, extract and

replace teeth afflicted with cavities. It seems like we were always one

step behind the forces that cause decay. We recom-mend brushing twice daily, watch

sugar intake, and seeing your dentist on sugar intake, and seeing your dentist on a regular basis as our way of preventing cavities from forming. Current research suggests this may not be adequate.

Research shows that dental decay is a chronic disease and that it is a result of individual behavioral patterns. We know of 32 types of bacteria that cause cavities. These bacteria thrive when the mouth saliva is acidic or at a low pH level. Behavioral effects range from how sugar is consumed, how effective we brush, how medications alter the mouth, how we respond to bacteria and how we utilize proper home remedies.

Dentists first look at one’s risk of get-ting cavities. I can look at a twenty year old with one or two cavities and confi-dently say their risk is low. What about the 1 year old? Dentists will ask ques-tions and analyze the primary care giver to determine the child’s exposure.

Mothers can transmit oral bacteria to the baby in the first year. If the mother

has a lot of cavities the baby is a high has a lot of cavities the baby is a high risk. We must look at the mother’s be-havior and evaluate the child when the first teeth come popping through.

If the caries risk assessment is high we can do bacteriological tests through cultures that will tell us the levels pres-ent. Treatment of dental disease then becomes individualized to each person depending on the evidence at hand.

I mentioned pH factors for cavities. There is a growing awareness to “con-vert” the pH level to a more neutral level to select against harmful bacterial. There are regimens of toothpastes and mouth rinses designed for short-term use to con-vert the biofilm to a neutral state. Saliva tests can be performed to determine the need for these treatments and to measure their effectiveness.

Recalcification or remineraliza-tion toothpastes (such as Recaldent) are available to harden eroded teeth so fill-ings aren’t required. Fluoride varnishes are recent additions to the dentist’s bag

of tools to resist decay of high-risk teeth. I use these varnishes both in all children and seniors who are prone to root decay.

Xylitol is a sweetener added to some chewing gums. It appears to reduce the biofilm or plaque index thus lowering the decay and gum disease rates. In the past I have not recommended chewing gum due to long term wear on the teeth and jaw joint. Since the addition of xylitol I now prescribe this as an over-the-counter therapeutic.

The challenge is to change dietary behavior and not consume foods that create an acidic mouth. This is especially true for preschool children. Dental decay is unfortunately on the rise in this age group. I will discuss the effect of diet upon the health of the mouth in the fu-ture.

By Lou Kaku

The Artesia-Cerritos Soroptimists held an Open House , Nov. 18 at the home of member, Diana Needham. The gather-ing was attended by 12 members along with seven guests, and allowed members to share their reasons for joining Soropti-mists and discussing the club’s mission. It also afforded guests a chance to be-come acquainted with the members.

Needham provided an elegant yet re-laxed setting where members and guests could mingle and visit, while Ursula Piotrowski coordinated sweets and sa-vories provided by the members. Bever-ages included sodas and fine wine.

Needham gave the official greeting and Co-Presidents Kathy Lovell and Lou Kaku made some brief remarks. Two of the guests were teachers at the Tracy Teen Parent Program, and discussed club’s ongoing support of that program. The best part of the intimate gathering was it allowed all the members to add their comments and gave everyone a chance to visit. As the evening wound to a close, several guests expressed an in-terest in either joining the club or joining us in some of our activities so that they could become better acquainted with So-roptimists and its goals.

The evening was deemed a success by all who attended and there was talk of having another Open House in 2011. If you are interested in joining or learning more about the mission of Soroptimist International of Artesia-Cerritos, you can contact Co-President, Lou Kaku, at [email protected].

relations awards, community forums and educational programs that are open to the public.

Some of OC Human Relations ser-vices throughout the year included me-diating 112 cases in the community or courts where one of the parties was a resident of La Palma in 2009-2010.

Also, in collaboration with La Palma police on hate crimes and individuals or community groups on hate incidents, that were not crimes, Ngin said, “We are pleased to report that we did not docu-

ment any hate crimes or incidents in La Palma in 2009.”

Ngin said that 20 La Palma students participated in OCHR’s day of, “Walk in my Shoes” symposiums at UCI and CSU Fullerton, learning respect, tolerance and making a difference in their school and community.

“We helped build a sense of commu-nity with La Palma residents and staff through the “Hate Crime Victim Sup-port.”

Ngin said that by investing in the partnership between cities and OCHR, both are taking positive steps to address challenges that may lie ahead in the fu-ture.

According to Ngin, OCHR is recog-nized as a model for building positive in-tergroup relations through programs like BRIDGES, Mediation and Community Building, and said that they are looking forward to a continued partnership with the city of La Palma as they move for-ward.

“By working together, we can make Orange County and La Palma better places for all people to live and work – by doing so - everyone wins.”

The Cerritos Regional Chamber of Commerce will host the 2011 Miss Cerritos Contest, which will be held on Tuesday, March 22, 2011 from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm at the Cerritos Center for the Performing Arts.

The Miss Cerritos Contest is NOT a pageant. This is a professional develop-ment opportunity for young women. We are looking for professional, outgoing, responsible, articulate young women to represent the Chamber as an Ambassador throughout the year.

The goal of Miss Cerritos is for young women to gain professional networking skills, public speaking and interview

skills, and to make contacts within the Cerritos business community to help fur-ther their professional careers. Women must be a high school graduate or equiva-lent, no older than 27 years old, and live, work, or go to school in Cerritos, or work for a business that is a member of the Cer-ritos Regional Chamber of Commerce.

Women who are interested in partici-pating in the Miss Cerritos Contest should contact the Chamber before the March 1, 2011 Miss Cerritos Orientation Meeting at 562/467-0800. If your business is in-terested in sponsoring a young woman, please contact the Chamber for details.

Hawaiian Gardens gang member wanted for attempted murder

Francisco Nunez, known as “Pancho” is wanted for the attempted murder of his girlfriend. Nunez, who was described as a “Varrio” gang member, poured an ig-nitable liquid on his girlfriend and set her on fire on Jan. 1 at 9:39 p.m. in the 1800 block of Civic Center Drive. The victim sustained 2nd and 3rd degree burns over 60% of her body and is listed in critical condition

Nunez is 31 years old with black hair and brown eyes. He is 5 feet 8 inches and weighs approximately 200 pounds. He has tattoos on his right thigh “BROWN”, left thigh, “PRIDE”.

The public is urged to contact Arson Detective Duncan at (323) 881-7500 if you have any questions or information.

Supporters of Cerritos Mayor Joseph Cho gathered at the opening of his re-election headquarters on the corner of Norwalk Boulevard and 195th Street. Cho thanked them for coming and said he was humbled that Cerritos residents had given him the opportunity to serve them as Mayor of Cerritos. He said Cerritos has not been immune to the worst recession the country has experienced in the last 70 years and tough decisions have had to be made to weather the economic storm, at the same time retaining the high quality services to “our” residents without laying off a single employee. He said, “After much soul searching and deliberations with my family, I have decided to seek re-election to the Cerritos City Council to help tackle the tough challenges facing us in the future.”

Suburban League basketball gets significant makeoverBy Loren Kopff

Varsity boys and girls doubleheaders have been a staple for many high school basketball teams for the longest time but that is going to change for the Suburban League, at least for this season. In a move that is partly based on financial reasons, the varsity squads of the seven-member league will play at the opposite sites, fol-lowing games of their same gender lower level teams.The new format for the league season, which began this past Wednesday, calls for the freshmen/sophomore games to begin at 3:00 p.m., the junior varsity games at 4:30 p.m. and the varsity games at 6:00 p.m. In the past the girls varsity games would start at 5:00 p.m. with the boys tipping off approximately 90 min-utes later. While some league coaches are in favor of the change, others are op-posed to it, even though they know why the change was made.Another reason for the switch was to give the varsity coaches the chance to see his or her lower level teams at the same site. In the past, the varsity girls game would come after the junior varsity girls game. Several league coaches and athletic di-rectors have stated that noting is etched in stone for the 2011-2012 season. Here is what some of the league coaches have said about the new change.Artesia boys head coach Greg Taylor:“I just hope people come to the girls’ games. When I first heard [about the change], that was the first thing I thought. As far as the logistics, I get it. I really don’t have a problem with it. I just feel like the girls’ games might lose a little bit of luster.”Cerritos boys head coach Jonathan Wa-tanabe:“I like being able to see my lower levels play. That’s what we’re trying to build up for our varsity level, especially our pro-gram. We’re going to miss watching our girls play, though. I think that’s going to be a big drawback.” John Glenn boys head coach Darin Elisaldez:“I see both pros and cons to it. I like when the program travels together. We bond and we might get a little sluggish sitting and watching our lower levels but it’s good for us. On the other hand, I love building a rapport with the basket-ball program, both boys and girls. We do a lot of things together and we support each other at alumni games and at single games.”Norwalk boys head coach Jim Webster:“The time doesn’t matter. It’s getting all of our levels to play together. I don’t think it’s set in stone but the principals and athletic directors wanted to try this.

the team ran into a brick wall in Long Beach Jordan.The Panthers raced out to a 16-5 lead within the first four and a half minutes and cruised to an 82-48 win. It was the worst loss thus far for the Lady Crusad-ers, who would leave the tournament at 6-7 overall.“It’s not a tough one to swallow,” said V.C. head coach Katie Hardeman. “They’re way better than us. If they play us 100 times, they’ll beat us 100 times. We were just working for our small vic-tory. They just had too many weapons.”When the first quarter had concluded, the Panthers were up 25-10 as V.C. con-nected on four of 20 shots from the field. In fact, the Crusaders would not get an-other field goal until the 2:22 mark of the second quarter when senior Jamie Perez scored off a pass from junior Kari Kor-ver.The Lady Crusaders shot 29 percent from the field in the game and Korver led the way with 25 points and five re-bounds. But, despite nailing four shots from beyond the arc, she also missed a high percentage of shots and didn’t even attempt a shot in the third quarter.“She’s a shooter and she’s going to have off nights,” Hardeman said. “It’s tough, too, when you’re the only offense and everyone focuses on you. She gets zero easy shots. They all will be hard, con-tested ones that she has to work hard for.”Perez chipped in with 10 points while senior Jelissa Holder added eight points. As a team, V.C. pulled down only 15 re-bounds and had six steals. V.C. began the tournament on Dec. 27 with a 61-49 loss to Torrance behind Korver’s 27 points. It marked the ninth straight time she had scored at least 20 points in a game.That streak would end the next night in a 65-24 victory over Cerritos. Korver was held to a career-low five points, just the fifth time in her high school career she did not reach double figures.The Lady Crusaders comfortably led 42-7 at the half as all nine players who suited up scored at least one basket with Holder scoring nine points before inter-mission. She ended up leading the team with 15 points and four steals while ju-nior Lianna Tanis recorded a career-high 10 points. Junior Nia Archer grabbed 11 rebounds as the two teams met for the first time since 1997, the last time the Lady Dons were in the Gahr Tourna-ment.“I was a little discouraged in the first game, that we were playing really tenta-tive,” Hardeman said. “I felt like in the next game, they came out a lot more ag-gressively. I felt like the first game was a little bit of a fluke where we hadn’t played in eight days.”V.C. would draw Torrance again on Dec. 30 for third place and fell to the Tartars 65-61 despite a career-high 37 points from Korver and 10 more from Perez. The Lady Crusaders hosted Whittier

Maybe we make some money to help the programs out and not lose money in bas-ketball. But the main thing was seeing all of our levels play [on the same] day.”John Glenn girls head coach Linda Par-ra:“I’m divided. From an administrative standpoint, I understood why they tried to do that change because of trying to cut back on the financial costs that have been occurring in any sport. We started charging for volleyball; we never have charged for volleyball in the past.“I don’t like the fact that we’re playing at 6:00 because I have little kids and I want be ready to go home by 7:30 versus leav-ing by 8:30,” she continued. “It poses its own individual problems. My girls don’t like it.”Norwalk girls head coach Richard Drake:“I’m not in favor of it. I’ve never been in favor of it. The separation-I don’t think is going to be good for any of the schools. I even talked to Vince Nicholson of May-fair and as good as his team is, he said his crowds are going to be way down because these people will go to watch a boys basketball game.“A lot of our crowds in the past would show up at halftime at a girls varsity game to be there for the boys varsity game,” he continued. “That’s where you made your money. They’ve done this because they think they’re going to make more money but you’re only going to have a few loyal parents that will come to [the games]. Crowds are going to be down.”Parra added that she grew up playing with the boys at Mojave High School and would always watch her boys’ teams after her games. She questions if people will still support the girls basketball teams other than the parents. She also thinks that from a financial standpoint, Cerritos and Mayfair will come away as the big winners at the door. Instead of each school charging admission to six varsity league contests, now they will charge for a dozen league games. This league opened with the Ar-tesia boys traveling to Cerritos, the La Mirada boys hosting Mayfair and the Norwalk boys visiting Glenn.

The Gladiators bolted out to a 13-4 advantage and led 43-21 at the half behind 18 points from Montana State University-bound Symone Brown. She would score a team-high 30 points on 13 of 26 shooting from the field, the second time this season she has scored at least 30, and also grabbed nine rebounds. Sophomore Jasmine Gates added 13 points and six boards while sophomore Jewelyn Sawyer scored 11 points and pulled down nine rebounds. Junior P.J. King pitched in with 10 points.“It has been totally and completely frus-trating,” said Gahr head coach Al Doro-gusker. “I thought, coming into this sea-son, I had a very, very good team and I don’t see it. I still think we can bring it around but in this tournament, I think we look bad.”Gahr (7-6) began the tournament with a 63-42 romp over another Suburban League school, Norwalk, as the Gladia-tors began the game on a 17-2 run. Nor-walk was able to close the gap to nine points by halftime and trailed 33-24 midway through the third period. Again, it was Brown who led the team with 21 points while Sawyer added 15 points and sophomore Sydney Teodoro, in her first start of the season, scored 11 points.“I love Sydney,” Dorogusker said. “As a stand still shooter, she’s an excellent shooter. If she gets an open three, she’s going to knock it down. Even when she misses, you could see she’s a shooter.”The next day, Gahr tried to stay close to Jordan but ran out of steam in the second half and fell 72-45. The Gladiators trailed by 14 at the intermission but the Panthers opened the second half on an 8-0 run and Gahr was unable to get within 16 points the rest of the way. Brown scored a team-high 28 points while Sawyer had another seven points along with seven rebounds. With Brown and Sawyer doing the ma-jority of the scoring through the first half of the regular season, Gahr has been receiving a lot of help from Gates. Al-though she has only scored 19 points in the tournament, she entered the week as the team’s fourth leading scorer and has reached double figures three times.“You watch her in practice and in skill drills and routine stuff and she’s really a good player,” Dorogusker said. “She has a lot of stuff and comes from a program that ran things very different than our program. I thought she would fit in and

give us 10-12 points a game right away. She is the two-guard for the future for us without any question.”Sawyer was the leading scorer against Gardena with 14 points and 10 rebounds while junior Alii Salone and Teodoro each added 13 points. Brown chipped in with 11 points and six rebounds. Gahr hosted Redondo on Jan. 6 and will visit Downey on Wednesday in the San Ga-briel Valley League opener.Norwalk has been riding an up and down season but when the Lancers defeated Bell 54-42 on Dec. 29, it was the team’s second straight win and just the second time all season it had won consecutive games. Norwalk was rarely tested as it opened a 21-7 lead in the first quarter and led 37-16 at the half as the team was true on 16 field goals.“I think this was the best first half,” said Norwalk head coach Richard Drake. “I think we relaxed in the second half be-cause we had such a big lead which hap-pens pretty much in all sports. As we put the bench [players] in, we kind of slid down a little.”Senior Jazman DeLaRosa posted a ca-reer-high 17 points while sophomore Maiya Griffin-McNair added a career-high 10 points with 13 rebounds, her first high school double-double. Norwalk had 41 rebounds and 11 steals against the Los Angeles City Section foe. In the first game of the tournament, se-nior Giselle Sanchez had a career-high 17 points against Gahr while DeLaRosa added seven points and six rebounds. Against St. Matthias one day later, the Lancers (5-8) were led by Sanchez (eight points) and three players who scored half a dozen points-DeLaRosa and seniors Damonise Martin and Vanessa Ramirez.“I was happy playing Gahr,” Drake said. “I was only down by 10 with four and a half minutes left and we ran out of gas. But I was impressed with the intensity. I felt that we didn’t play to our level.”

Norwalk then capped off the Shootout Division of the tournament with a 36-23 victory over San Pedro as DeLaRosa posted a team-high 11 points. The Lanc-ers hosted John Glenn this past Wednes-day and will visit Bellflower tonight be-fore entertaining Mayfair on Monday and travelling to La Mirada on Wednesday. “I’m an optimist and a pessimist,” Drake said. “I do see us improving [but] I’m not sure which team is going to show up.”Finally, Cerritos put an end to its seven-game losing streak when the Lady Dons knocked off San Pedro 44-32 to open the tournament behind a career-high 16 points from sophomore Deshields Fajar-do. Junior Ashley Juarez added 11 points, six steals and five rebounds and freshman Megan Lou grabbed six rebounds as Cer-ritos played the tournament shorthanded due to injuries. Against V.C., Fajardo led the way with 14 points and five rebounds while Lou scored a team-high 12 points off the bench against Gahr. She also had five rebounds while freshman Taylor Scott scored 10 points. Juarez had seven re-bounds and Fajardo had six assists. Cer-ritos (2-9) capped off the tournament with a 51-22 against St. Matthias behind a career-high 22 points from Juarez and a career-high 14 points from freshman Sta-cy Suzuki. Fajardo also had a big game with 10 points, eight assists, six steals and five rebounds. Cerritos visited Arte-sia this past Wednesday and will go to Glenn on Monday before hosting May-fair on Wednesday.

of construction, becoming a General Contractor. Through his trade, Sal built a house in La Habra for his parents, a house in Artesia for his wife and chil-dren, and a vacation home on the beach in Rosarito Beach, Mexico.

During World War ll, hel served his country in the Army.

In 1955, Sal married Lorraine Mathews and moved to Artesia, CA. Sal was the loving father to four daughters: Janis, Sally, Debbie and Lori. He spent the remainder of his life in Artesia, en-joying hobbies such as playing golf, shooting pool, traveling and restoring vintage trucks.

In 1997 Sal’s wife passed away. He married Maria Dolores Castro in 1999 and spent the remaining years of his life with her.

On Dec. 24, Sal passed away after a seven year battle with Alzheimers. Sal is survived by his wife, Lolis, four daugh-ters, wo son-in-laws, 10 grandchildren, three great grandchildren and six sib-lings.

It was a miracle from God that for the last nine months of his life he was able to carry on short conversations, read the newspaper, feed himself and enjoy some of the simple things in life. He never lost his sense of humor.

Sal was a handsome man, a strong man, and a man of few words. Most of all, he was a good man with love for fam-ily and friends. In return he was blessed with much love. He will be missed.

replaced by the airplane that cut travel time from days and weeks to hours. Now there is MAGLEV developed to meet the transportation needs of the 21st century.

The difference between MAGLEV and a conventional train is it does not have a traditional engine that pulls train cars along steel tracks. Maglev engines instead use a magnetic field created by electrified coils in guideway walls along the track that combine to propel it.

The guideway consists of a magne-tized coil running along the track. It re-pels the large magnets on its undercar-riage, allowing the train to levitate above the guideway. Once it is levited, power is supplied to the coils within the guideway walls to create a unique system of mag-netic fields that pull and push Maglev along the guideway.

The electric current supplied to the coils in the guideway walls is constantly alternating to change the polarity of the magnetized coils. This change in polarity causes the magnetic field in front to pull the vehicle forward, while the magnetic field behind it adds more forward thrust.

Maglev trains float on a cushion of air, eliminating friction that allows them to reach unprecedented ground speeds of more than 310 mph, or twice as fast as Amtrak’s fastest commuter train. Ger-many and Japan are both developing maglev train technology and are testing

prototypes of their trains. China has built an 18-mile line in Shanghai from the city to its airport with speeds up to 268 mph, with plans to extend the line.

Orange LineLocal proposals call for a maglev

line, known as the Orange Line that will connect Orange County to Los Angeles. County. China, Germany and Japan are in the first stages of Maglev technology, Perdon, , speaking at a breakfast meeting of the Cerritos Optimist Club, explained unlike other Maglev projects in this country, the Orangeline would be devel-oped using funding from private sources through a $19 billion Public-Private Partnership. It is also a transit-oriented development built around 18 commuter stations spaced approximately six miles apart. It would average 90 mph.

The proposed Orangeline will be ca-pable of carrying both passengers and cargo along a 108-mile corridor and ul-timately would run from Central Orange County through downtown Los Angels and Glendale to the north county cities of Santa Clarita and Palmdale.

The line would run on “abandoned and unused right-of-ways”. Researching the Orangeline is the Orangeline Devel-opment Authority [JPA], a joint pow-ers agency of 14 cities located along its route.

The Orangeline project was derived from maglev feasibility studies conduct-ed by the Southern California Associa-tion of Governments [SCAG] from 1999 to 2002 resulting in that body issuing a call for the formation of joint-powers authorities to develop maglev lines us-ing several routes throughout the region owned by the Union Pacific Railroad, the Orange County Transportation Authority [OCTA] and the Metropolitan Transpor-tation Authority [MTA].

Commuter travel time would also be reduced. A typical 20-mile commute on the Orangeline would take 16 min-

utes with a proposed fare of $18. This compares to a peak fare on the proposed 10-mile 91 expressways of $9.25, plus automobile operating costs that includes gas that is presently averaging $2.27 per gallon [unleaded].

To date, 14 of the 28 cities along the route have joined the Orangeline JPA. They are Artesia, Bell, Bellflower, Cer-ritos, Cudahy, Downey, Glendale, Hun-tington Park, Maywood, Paramount, Santa Clarita, South Gate, Vernon, and the Burbank-Glendale-Pasadena Airport Authority.

Agencies supporting the proposed Orangeline include Caltrans, District 7, Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro), and the Gateway Cities Coun-cil of Government. OCTA controls the former Pacific Electric “Red Car” com-muter railroad right-of-way that is the preferred Orangeline route from Santa Ana into Los Angeles County and runs through Cerritos and Artesia,

Maglev is environmentally sound technology and pollution free and will reduce traffic congestion, enabling riders a stress free ride to work in the shortest period of time.

SUBURBAN LEAGUE GIRLS SOCCER

Artesia makes aresounding statement in Suburban League openerBy Loren Kopff

Sometimes league openers aren’t sup-pose to amount to much as it relates to the rest of the season but this past Wednes-day’s Suburban League girls soccer tilt between Artesia and Cerritos meant a lot for both teams. But when Artesia opened the second half with a vengeance en route to a 5-1 victory, the Pioneers sent a state-ment to the rest of the league.

Artesia (9-2-1 overall, 1-0-0), which has been to the playoffs in consecutive seasons, is trying to prove that they can contend for a league championship in-stead of just a playoff berth. The Lady Dons, who won just two games two sea-sons ago, are trying to turn around their program with Victoria Lathrop in her second season as the head coach.

With the game tied 1-1 at the half, Artesia junior Jasmine Cornejo forward scored twice within the first 10 minutes of the second half and everything went smooth sailing for the Pioneers the rest of the way.

“Yesterday and today, all the girls talked about was how nervous [they were],” said Artesia head coach Octavio Marquez. “I think the jitters kind of got to us today. We got off to a slow start but once we got that first goal, we kind of woke up. Cerritos is a good team; we were just able to finish opportunities that we had.”

Cerritos (4-2-0, 0-1-0) set the tone early in the game as junior midfielder Sarah Pasos, once a Pioneer, hit the right post on the first of four shots in the half for the Lady Dons. Cerritos would domi-nate the majority of the half and in the 31st minute, grabbed a 1-0 lead as senior midfielder Bianca Frontino received a corner kick from Pasos, bounced the ball in front of her and knocked in her team-leading seventh goal of the season.

But three minutes before halftime, the Pioneers tied the contest when se-nior midfielder Gaby Zamarripa scored on a free kick from about 25 yards out that snuck through the right side. Artesia would have six more shots than Cerritos in the first half but the second half would be completely one-sided.

“We unfortunately have some linger-ing injuries that I can see popping back up and I think that’s going to be one of the biggest things for this season,” Lath-rop said. “It’s hard when your starting 11 isn’t as healthy as you would like them to be.”

“Before the game we went over the key points that we had to do and we had to shut down [Frontino] and [senior mid-fielder Paige Larkin] and in the first half, they were just killing us,” Marquez said. “Our forwards weren’t receiving the ball too much. They were ball watching too much.”

Five minutes into the second half, Cornejo followed up on an attempt from sophomore forward Carolina Ornelas. Four minutes later, Cornejo scored with the assist coming from freshman mid-fielder Stephanie Flores. Then in the 54th minute, Ornelas retrieved a misplayed ball from the Cerritos goalkeeper and tapped in her 10th tally of the season.

The Lady Dons tried to get back into the game in the 63rd minute but a shot from Pasos barely sailed off to the right. Six minutes after that, Caliz took a hard shot but that was deflected by junior net minder Itzel Gonzalez.

“Today we just didn’t play as a team,” Lathrop said. “We played as individuals and it was very obvious as the second half went along. I give Connie Caliz a lot of credit today. She was up and back all day. I coined her man of the match just

because she didn’t give up.”Cornejo completed the game’s scor-

ing in the 65th minute when she tapped in a loose ball at the right post after a shot from Ornelas bounced off a de-fender. It was Cornejo’s first hat trick of the season and increased her season tally to a dozen. She now has 36 goals in her high school career, good for third place in school history. By the end of the sea-son, she could easily pass Meghan Pasos for second place, who has 50 goals.

“I’ve been here for about 13 years and by far, they are the best combination of forwards we’ve had,” Marquez said of Cornejo and Ornelas. “It’s just nice to have them both.”

The win for the Pioneers was the fifth in the last six meetings with Cerritos but since 1998, Cerritos owns a 17-7-3 mark. The five goals are the most the Pioneers have ever scored against Cerritos and it’s the first league opening win for the hosts since 2005.

“I think they gave us a great glimpse of how they’re going to be for the rest of the season,” Lathrop said. “I think it will be a grudge match when they come back to visit us and hopefully we’ll have our head on straight then.”

Artesia will visit league nemesis La Mirada today and visit Bellflower on Monday. The Pioneers have defeated La Mirada just once in at least the past 26 meetings, that being a forfeit last sea-son. Since 1998, Artesia has scored nine goals against La Mirada. Cerritos travels to Lynwood today in a non-league con-test and goes to John Glenn on Monday. The Lady Dons will host Mayfair on Wednesday.

“We came in definitely feeling like this was going to set the tone for both squads,” Lathrop said. “It definitely gives Artesia a chance to go into La Mirada on Friday and say, ‘hey, we have a win under our belts. Let’s see what we can do’.”

ing from the chairman’s repertoire the big band swung the night away but it was the little known “It’s Sunday” that really took this concert to the top.

E-Orchestra: October 30. Moscow State Orchestra with Jennifer Koh violin. Under the baton of the energetic Pavel Kogan the big and powerful Moscow State Orchestra really expanded the hall musically. Ms. Koh was simply magnifi-cent playing Max Bruch’s “Violin Con-certo No. 1 in g minor” especially on the “allegro energetico” that was energetic and more. Moreover, one of the real heart pounding moments in all of the Cerritos history was the final movement of Mouss-gorky’s “Pictures at an Exhibition” when the Muscovites opened the doors of the “great gate of Kiev," bringing tears of joy to concert-goers eyes.

E-Charm: November 7. Bobby Vin-ton. Singing hits that first hit the airwaves when I was a little nipper the old crooner charmed the full house with an act he has polished or Polished for five decades. When he shouted “Ho Ho!” to the crowd it actually worked like a tonic.

E-Yule: December 3. Tomaseen Fol-ey’s Celtic Christmas. The warm and won-

derful Irish Christmas show featured the ancient craft of storytelling highlighted by excellent folk music. “The Christmas Par-cel” shone like a beautiful ornament when juxtaposed against the work of three fine musicians and one terrific dancer.

E-Performance of the Year: John Williams. The great guitarist presented a near perfect concert showcasing several great Latin-American composers but sur-prisingly the biggest gem in a jewel-box full of them was the African artist Francis Bebey’s “O Bia” that in its simplicity and beauty was unforgettable.

E-Show of the Year. Kris Kristoffer-son. If you thought old Kris was just an actor who dabbles you should have seen this deeply affecting show filled with great songwriting and soul shaking singing. In a night that passed far too quickly his “the Circle from Here to Forever” written to his children provided an unforgettable moment in the annals of the great hall.

Lastly: 2010 proved to be the best year in my life. I was fortunate enough to accomplish my life’s ambition and publish “Los Angeles in Maps” for Riz-zolli International. Check out http://www.laobserved.com/archive/2010/12/la_ob-served_on_kcrw_holid.php.
