A little less fat, a little more plant-based food,

Price for Peace: The Story of S. Brian Willson” at 1 p.m. on Sept.
9 in in Clubhouse 4. The film is the story of an ordinary man and
soldier who, driven by his conscience and sense of honor, took a
stand that created unexpected consequences.
Willson and a cast that includes well-known peace activists, draws
connections between Vietnam, Nicaragua and Iraq and shows how
people can overcome the fears that fuel perpetual war.
Producer/director Bo Boudart captures Willson’s story along with
Daniel Ellsberg, Alice Walker, Martin Sheen, Ron Kovic, Cindy
Sheehan and others. The film is narrated by Peter Coyote.
The program was chosen to coincide with the United Nations

will be brief.
Senior Patriots for Peace is dedicated to the promotion of peace
and focus on issues of social justice and the environment.

A close-up of the new continents, which are being fastened
to the frame this week.
From page 1
rust-eaten Leisure World globe
has been a challenging project,
according to David Rudge, the
GRF Physical Property project
coordinator who is overseeing
the work.
About 1,200 feet of rusty
tubing has been replaced
with galvanized sand-blasted
steel. Stretch Solutions LLC
in Corona built a die to form
the exact curve of the globe
and then contoured 70 huge
sheets of galvannealed steel
from which the continents are
being cut.
The crew from Electrolurgy Fabricators, a Santa Ana
tube bending and fabrication
company, spent the last three
weeks cutting continents from
48-by-84-inch sheets.
The work is being done in
front of the globe.
The cost of the project is
about $350,000.
The globe has graced the
entrance of Leisure World
since 1962, when developer
Ross Cortese finished building
a new kind of community just
for senior citizens.

GRF EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

In its simplest sense, transparency in the operations of GRF
means clear, unhindered honesty in the way day to day operations
of GRF are conducted. But it’s more than that. One business dictionary defines transparency as a “lack of hidden agendas or conditions,
accompanied by the availability of full information required for
collaboration, cooperation, and collective decision making.” The
same source describes it as an “essential condition for a free and
open exchange whereby the rules and reasons behind regulatory
measures are fair and clear to all participants.” Meanwhile, another
source defines transparency as “the full, accurate, and timely disclosure of information.”
In other words, transparency is more than simple honesty—much
more.
In all fairness, the first thoughts of the idea of exposing the
internal operations can be a scary thing. Augmenting the daunting
aspect of full exposure are the many and varied perceptions on what
transparent operations truly is.
Let’s look at the basics of community governance:
• Notice to Members. Unless the governing documents require
longer period of notice, members must be given notice of the time
and place of board meetings at least four (4) days prior to the meeting. (Civ. Code §4920(a).) Notice can be given by general delivery
(Civ. Code §4920(c).) Notice, which must include an agenda, may be
given by any of the following methods: Electronic, Mail, Newsletter
or Posted in Common Areas.
GRF not only posts its Board meetings, it also posts all committee meetings, Sub-committee and Ad Hoc Committee meetings.
Meeting schedules are posted in the News as well as on the GRF
web site (www.lwsb.com)
• Board meeting agendas must be posted along with the notice
of meeting. (Civ. Code §4920.) With few exceptions, boards are
not allowed to discuss or take action on any item not on the agenda
(Civil Code §4930(a)).
Full Board agendas are posted in the News and Committee
agendas, including supportive documents, are posted on the GRF
web site. Access to a wealth of information can be gained by going
to www.lwsb.com, clicking on the Golden Rain Foundation tab and
then click documents; for committees, click on Agendas and Minutes
tabs. Then by clicking on any folder, you have access to the agenda,
support materials and meeting minutes.

Sample Screen of Committee Documents
Four years ago, my second
term on the GRF Board, I was
a member of the Recreation
Committee. At
a meeting in
September
2013, the subject of dancing in front of
the stage was
brought up. At
that meeting a
staff member
stated that the
Fire Department said that we
shouldn’t allow dancing in front
because if there was a fire, the
Shareholder/members would
have trouble getting out. That
was later proved not to be a true
statement. At the same meeting
it was brought up that a lot of
handicapped people sat in that
area and the dancers blocked their
view of the stage. The Committee
voted to approve a set of rules for
the Amphitheater, which stated
that dancing was only allowed
on the raised platforms on both
sides of the stage.
Dancing came up again the
next year and the committee suggested that we improve the dance
platforms. Physical Property took
it up and the dance platforms were
improved adding lights and railings. The dancers at that time said
they couldn’t see the stage from
that area. Again it was said only
to allow dancing on the platforms
and not in front. Last year it came
up again and the outcome was
the same.
This year (Aug. 10, 2016) a
new “No Dancing policy” (140950) was approved unanimously
by the Recreation Committee to
be sent to the Aug. 23 full Board
meeting. The GRF Board voted
and the policy was approved with
one (1) no vote.
At this time the policy stands.
At a Sunshine Club meeting
I was speaking at a few months
after the first Recreation Committee meeting I repeated the
information I was told about the
Fire Department. That was not
true but I didn’t know it at the
time. Since I learned the truth I
have never repeated that statement. So I apologize to anyone
who believes I’ve misled them.
I can understand how important dancing is to some people.
Before I broke my ankle many
years ago I also loved to dance.
Part of the Golden Rain budget
is providing a dance every Saturday night for all shareholder/
members who wish to participate
with their friends and neighbors.
I’m sure this isn’t the last we’ve
heard on this subject.
Setting It Straight
The posting of the meeting times and agendas are a call to action. By statute, Shareholder/Members can watch committees and
the Board conduct business. In addition, they can address the board
during the open forum portion of the meeting. This is the same policy
followed by municipalities at city council meetings. The open forum

Transfers on Death Deed bill
BY LES H COHEN, MUTUAL 15
LEGISLATIVE ADVOCATE EMERITUS/OMBUDSMAN
Gov. Jerry Brown signed into law AB 1779
(Gatto D-Glendale) as Chapter 179 Statutes of
2016 on Aug. 25.
The law, sponsored by Leisure World, is the
equal protection measure to ensure residents (coops) will eventually be included in the recently
enacted law on revocable transfers on death deed
(TODD) (AB 139.)
Previously when reading the provisions of AB
139 it was discovered by the GRF attorneys and concurred in by Legislative Counsel that there are unintended consequences with regards
to Leisure World residents (co-ops) as well as all co-ops statewide.
AB 1779 passed both houses of the Assembly and Senate committees unanimously, with strong support from Senator Moorlach
(R-Costa Mesa), Senator Nguyen (R-Garden Grove ) and Assemblymember Allen (R-Huntington Beach). The Community Associations
and GRF supported the measure.
Residents owe debt of gratitude to author Assemblymember
Mike Gatto who promised to correct the problem.

is recognizing the need to repair the water distribution systems in
its 44 buildings. After hearing Mark Weaver speak at the Historical
Society Meeting, she began thinking it would be a much needed
improvement. “We all realize that improvements cost money so
let us not complain. Thanks to the Mutual 12 president Margaret
Gillon and the board, which do a great job.”

LW Democratic Club
New campaign office opened in Westminster
Leisure World’s Democratic
Club has joined with other clubs
in the area in opening a 2016
Local Campaign Office in the Albertson’s shopping center located
at 6731 Westminster Ave. (on the
northwest corner of Westminster
and Golden West, just north of the
theater and the Baskin-Robbins
Ice Cream Store.)
The office is open every day
from noon-5 p.m. LW Democratic
Club members will staff the office
on Fridays.
Democrats are invited to visit
the office for information about
the upcoming election and to
shop for buttons, signs and other
campaign accessories.
All LW Democrats are invited to the club’s membership
meeting at 1 p.m. on Sept. 20 in
Clubhouse 4 for a discussion of
the propositions on the November
ballot. Copies of the Democratic
Party’s recommendations will be
provided.
Included among the 18 November ballot measures is Proposition 60, the “California Safer
Sex in the Adult Film Industry
Act,” which is intended to
strengthen laws that require
condom use by adult film performers working in California.
It is interesting to note that both
the Democratic and Republican
Parties oppose this proposition.
There is a concern that this will
be expensive, hard to enforce,
and, ironically, could ultimately
be dangerous for sex workers.

From page 4
applies to open (non-executive session) board meetings (Civ. Code
§4925,§5000(b) . This is your opportunity to address the Board.
Committee meetings will normally have two (2) posted comments
periods, and monthly Board meetings allow comment before the
Board takes any actions. Additionally, at many committee meetings,
it is common for the Chairs to also accept Shareholder/Member comments and questions during the committee deliberations.
The thoughts of community are valued; please do note, if you
are not able to attend a committee meeting, all correspondence and
emails are forwarded to the committee for review and consideration.
All Shareholder/Members have a right to know. GRF has expanded
all aspects of open and transparent operations, in many areas exceeding the requirements of the Civil Code. The community deserves to
know the ins and outs of GRF’s operations and we are striving to
enhance communications and provide ample opportunity for you to
share your thoughts.
By involving the community in the governance process of Trust
Property, the Board, as your duly elected officials, gets a better idea
of what our fellow Shareholders/Members actually want or need.
Can each individual’s wants and needs be served? The answer is
No; can the mutual needs representing a majority of the community
be met? The answer is Yes.
Please take the time to review the agendas when posted and, most
importantly when you have a concern on a pending committee action,
the time to address the matter is before the action is taken, not after.

Men: Do you need that PSA test? Volunteers monitor blood pressure for residents
BY WILLIAM NAFTEL, M.D.
HEALTH CARE CENTER
BY SUSAN MORALES
LOS ALAMITOS MEDICAL
Many patients ask whether
screening for prostate cancer
is necessary. Some have heard
that the prostate-specific antigen
(PSA) blood test is “useless,”
and that routine prostate cancer
screening is no longer recommended.
Actually, the PSA blood test
and the digital rectal exam are
still the best tools available for
detecting prostate cancer before
symptoms appear. And finding
it early increases the chances of
successful treatment.
Prostate cancer is the secondmost common type of cancer
among men in this country. It is
also the second-leading cause of
cancer-related death in American
men.
So why aren’t routine prostate
cancer screenings recommended
any more?
The guidelines changed because the medical field now
knows that most forms of prostate cancer grow very slowly. In
fact, most men who have it do
not die of it.
This means not all prostate
cancers may need aggressive
treatment, like surgery, radiation and chemotherapy. While
prostate cancer may be a serious
condition, the PSA blood test has
Joyce Ingram didn’t have a
medical background when she
signed up six years ago to volunteer at the Health Care Center
on Golden Rain Road. Still, the
retired software engineer quickly
found her niche: providing free
blood pressure screenings inside
the Health Care Center lobby.
Now Joyce has her “regulars”
— Health Care Center patients,
Leisure World residents, visitors
and caregivers who come for the
screenings offered from 9-11:30
a.m. and from 1-3:30 p.m.
Monday-Friday.
She also trains other volunteers how to do it.
The Health Care Center
provides the free blood pressure
screenings as a public service. Ingram and other volunteers record
each reading on a personal card
for the individual to keep. If that
person is a Health Care Center
patient, the reading is also written
down for the primary care team.
And if someone’s blood pressure is high, Ingram does not
hesitate to notify the Health Care
Center staff. A nurse will come
out to the lobby, take the blood
pressure a second time, and assess
the situation.
Ingram remembers twice
when people who came in for
William Naftel, M.D.
led to biopsies and over-treatment
in some men who may not have
needed it.
And that is why several organizations including the American
Urological Association, American Cancer Society and Centers
for Disease Control no longer
recommend routine PSA screenings for all men after a certain age.
But what is right for you?
Before deciding whether or
not to undergo prostate cancer
screening, talk to a doctor about
personal risks.
And ask yourself what you
would do if the results were abSee NAFTEL, page 7

normal. There are many factors
to consider before taking the next
step, which would be a prostate
biopsy:
• How long has the PSA been
elevated? A series of test results
over time may provide more
helpful information.
• Could something other than
cancer be causing an elevated
PSA? An infection or another
prostate problem may influence
the test result.
• Your age and overall health.
After age 75, there may be other
medical conditions to consider
before undergoing surgery, radiation or chemotherapy.
A prostate biopsy is not an
insignificant test, and there is the
possibility of infection. The new
guidelines recommend informed
decision making instead of routine screenings.
Discuss prostate cancer
screening with your doctor. Make
this personal decision based on
all the available information,
including the possible benefits,
risks and limits.
An abnormal PSA test result
may be caused by something
other than prostate cancer, such
as an enlarged prostate or infection. Report any of the following
symptoms to your doctor, so the
cause may be found and treated,
if necessary:
• Difficulty urinating, including a slow or weak stream
• More frequent urination,
especially at night
• Blood in urine
• Loss of bladder control
Board-certified urologist William Naftel, M.D., is in practice at
Coast Urological Medical Group,
where he provides care and surgical treatment for diseases and
conditions of the kidney, bladder,
urinary tract and male reproductive system.
Appointments are available at

The Golden Rain Foundation sponsors a weekly dance on Saturdays from 7-10 p.m. in Clubhouse 1.

The Recreation Department asks residents and their guests attending the GRF Saturday Dances in Clubhouse 1 to cooperate in
adhering to the following rules:
• Do not park on the east side of Clubhouse 1. Parking for the
clubhouse is across Golden Rain Road at the golf course or on Burning Tree Lane.
• Attendees must be out of the clubhouse no later than 10 p.m.
to permit adequate time for the custodian to tear down the setup and
arrange the setup for the following day.
• No announcements are permitted from the stage, except by the
bands.
• Clubhouse lighting and audio visual equipment can only be

Opera Club
‘Carmen,’ Part 2, is feature Sept. 12

12, at 1:30 p.m. in Clubhouse 3, Room 3. A synopsis of Part I will
be given before the show starts.
Everyone is invited to attend.
“Carmen” was first performed in 1875 at the Paris Opera Comique. Written in French by the composer Georges Bizet, the opera was at
initially a failure, possibly due to Carmen’s brazen romantic attitude
and her shocking murder on stage.
Some writers have thought this contributed to Bizet’s early death
the same year at age 48.
The National Orchestre de France, conducted by Lorin Maazel, provides the music, and English subtitles are provided.

were recorded by players using
all seven tiles in a single turn,
adding 50 points to their score.
Mark Scott had the words “weighers” and “bloating”; Maria Giegerich “retailer” and “cremated”;
Flo Thompson, “areolae”; Sue
Murphy, “birdies”; and Wanda
Bemben, “grunters.”
Most players consider scores
in the 200s to be good. This
month Larry Edgar posted 441,
391 and 351; Mark Scott had 381
and 360; Flo Thompson, 363; and
Wanda Bemben, 351. Such scores
deserve special mention.
Now that September is here,
the club looks forward to increased attendance and plenty
of high scores. New members
are welcome to join the players.
the game starts on Wednesday
afternoons at 1, 2 and 3 p.m.
Games are played one-on-one

Los Angeles
‘Queen of Angels’ has rich history
When thinking of Los Angeles, show business is the first thing
that usually comes to mind, since it is the land of movie studios, rich
stars, valet parking and shopping on Rodeo Drive.
However, there is also a rich history in the sundrenched city that
stretches from the Pacific Ocean to the downtown skyscrapers and
beyond.
In 1769, Spanish explorer Gaspar de Portola dedicated the new
town Nuestra Senora la Reina de Los Angeles – Our Lady the Queen
of the Angels. Since then, the city has been a colorful melting pot of
humanity and cultures. Wagon trains brought pioneers in the mid1800s, and during the gold rush, local farmers made their fortunes
by supplying hungry prospectors with food.
All were drawn to Los Angeles by dreams of untold riches and
balmy weather. Some succeeded and invested in the growing city,
managing to establish businesses and building the hotels, libraries,
museums and theaters that are an important part of LA’s culture
and history.
The movie industry came to the area in the late 1800s, but it
wasn’t until filmmakers like D. W. Griffith and Cecil B. DeMille
arrived, drawn to the mild climate and long daylight hours, that
Hollywood was born.
Today, Native American and Spanish architecture and cultural
influences sit comfortably alongside the glitz of “Tinseltown” and
the cosmopolitan sophistication of Los Angeles.
For more than 35 years the Los Angeles Conservancy has offered walking tours, special events and other programs to bring Los
Angeles residents and visitors closer to the beautiful buildings and
unique spaces that make Los Angeles County special.
To learn more about the conservancy’s tours, events and projects
visit www.laconservancy.org.
Gerasimos “Gerry” Toumasis
passed away from cancer on Aug.
27, 2016.
Toumasis was born on Jan. 30,
1930, on the island of Kefalonia,
Greece. He married Kyriaky
Tsikalakis in 1960 and lived in
Athens, Greece, where he owned
a shipping company, and worked
as a newspaper writer and political activist.
In 1961, Mr. and Mrs. Toumasis had their first child, Theodosios, who is named after his
grandfather.
The family immigrated to the
United States in 1966 and settled
in Syracuse, New York. Mr. and
Mrs. Toumasis both worked for
men’s suit clothier Learbury, for
the remainder of their careers,
Mrs. Toumasis as a seamstress
and Mr. Toumasis as a shipping
manager.
In 1969, they had their second
child, Peter.
The Toumasis family raised
their sons in Syracuse and were
active in their church and community.
Both sons moved to California
in the 1990s and were joined in
2006 by their parents, who retired
to Leisure World to be closer to
their boys and grandchildren.
Mr. Toumasis is survived by
his wife, Kyriaky, his sons Aki
and Peter, his daughter-in-laws
Julie and Leila, and his granddaughters Kalia and Zoe.
Mr. Toumasis was buried
at Forest Lawn Cemetery in
Cypress, California, on Aug. 31.

• Any advertiser not including a
contractor’s license number can be assumed not to be a licensed contractor
and should not perform jobs costing
in excess of $500. Verify license numbers and scope of work a contractor is
licensed by calling 1-800-321-2752
or at www.cslb.ca.gov.
• Before signing any contract or
beginning any work, contractors
should check with the LW Physical
Property Dept. for a complete list of
requirements.
• Advertisers soliciting to do business
in Leisure World must include their
Seal Beach Business License numbers or other state license numbers
in their ads.
• The News will not knowingly publish any advertisement it deems to be
untruthful or misleading. Complaints
regarding an advertiser must be in
writing and signed to be considered.
