Making Dentistry FunBy Jack Von Bulow, DDS
Jack Von Bulow, DDS, was named Top Den-tist by Pasadena Magazine (2011-2013). Temple City Dental Care is located at 9929 E. Las Tunas Drive, Temple City, CA 91780. Phone him at 626-285-3161 or visit his Web site at www.templecitydental.com.
Back in January, I hung out with a bunch of DDS-types up in beautiful Mill Valley by the Bay. And even though I spent some quality time with some of my cool-est colleagues ever, the trip wasn’t a vacation.
The training we shared revolved around Invisalign orthodontic care. For the most part, those attending
were part of the most effective GP group in the world. And I’ve always believed retaining an element of
child-like curiosity as well as a stubborn dose of imma-turity creates the magic to staying young … although I hope my growing desperation isn’t that obvious. It’s re-ally all about learning.
And the training related successful early airway awareness to growth and develop-ment and the measures dentistry can take to make a difference in quality and length of life … starting early and continuing
Ninety million Americans suffer from Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA); only 10 percent receive care. Only 3 percent manage the disease … that can steal away 15 years of life. And the disease process starts early … as in toddlers.
Turns out, dentists have an opportunity to be gatekeepers and players in managing a deadly insidious disease.
OSA is a condition where the airway is restricted; a blockage behind the tongue
and soft palate effectively stops or inhibits breathing during sleep. And the signs and symptoms as well as the toxic effects begin very early.
Signs and symptoms include snoring, daytime drowsiness, morning headaches, jaw and facial pain, teeth clenching and grinding, and other subtle oral in-dicators that can be screened by dentists. Interceptive appliance care in toddlers can change a life. Adult clear aligner orthodontics can assist in saving a life.
March 6 marked 43 years to the day I saw my Dad die of a heart attack in our living room on an early Satur-day evening I’ll never forget. I know Dad suffered from OSA; today, March 6 happens needlessly way too often.
Ask your dentist about Obstructive Sleep Apnea. If you’ve ever considered remote, do-it-yourself care, it might be time for a deep breath and some serious sec-ond thoughts.
OSA: Not necessarily a silent killer
Chamber member California Institute of Advanced Manage-ment (CiAM), one of the leading experiential-learning based edu-cation institutions in the world, the Best MBA Program of the San Gabriel Valley according to Reader’s Choice Awards, and Southern California’s leading hands-on graduate school, has received a six-year accreditation, the maximum amount allowed, from the WASC Senior College and University Commission (WSCUC).
The accreditation means the educational programs offered at CiAM are widely recognized by institutions of higher learning in the United States, China, India, and the vast majority of western countries.
WSCUC is one of six regional accrediting agencies for public and private schools, colleges and universities, which are autho-
CiAM receives six-year accreditation from WSCUC rized by the U.S. Department of Education.
In addition, WSCUC is wide-ly recognized as a top accrediting body internationally, especially in Asia Pacific regions. The ac-creditation centers upon contin-uous institutional improvement and assures the membership and its constituencies, including the public, that accredited institu-tions are fulfilling their missions in service to their students and the public good.
CiAM started the accredi-tation process in the 2016-17 school year with an initial visit by a WSCUC team and received candidacy in the same school year.
Since that time, CiAM has worked diligently on curriculum development, student learning outcomes and other important school-wide processes to en-hance what is provided to stu-
dents. In September 2018, the WASC
visiting committee, a team of four experienced administrators and academicians (all familiar with experiential-learning based schools), conducted a multi-day examination of CiAM.
They recognized the achieve-ment of the MBA Program and overall operation of the school and viewed CiAM as a quality institution of higher education with many strong features, all of which were designed to help provide quality opportunities to students. WSCUC formally awarded the six-year institu-tional accreditation to CiAM on Dec. 1, 2018.
Jennie Ta, CiAM President and CEO, said, “The entire ac-creditation process was led by Vice President Dr. Eric Mc-

The beauty of nature has been celebrated in different Asian cultures throughout the ages. It is time to create a more eye-pleasing landscape for your house and expe-rience this celebration ev-ery day in your front and backyards.
You may prefer to hire a professional landscape architect.
However, there are some affordable ideas you may consider doing on your own or simply by hiring a gardener.
Many homes have front yards with grass only, which increases your
water bill each month. To conserve water, use drought resistant plants. Your yards deserve much more than grass only; con-trast, drama and colors are necessary for a beautiful landscape.
In large front yards, use rocks, a bouquet of red flowers in an ampho-
ra, build a trellis for roses to climb or install brick and stone edging to out-line the areas of your yard.
To add variation and color, mix low-growing greenery with colorful flowers.
Plant greenery with curved lines instead of straight or strict lines to add some dynamism.
For eye-catching ap-peal, layer plants by plac-ing higher green ones in the back and flowers in the front. Add lighting to emphasize the borders and the walkway to your front door.
Water features are a valuable asset to your gar-den.
Add a fountain, or build any shape by stack-ing stones or bricks on your own.
Everybody needs a bit

of privacy. A garden wall with plants or a trellis can do the job.
If you require more pri-vacy, plant hedges that can grow over time.
Some plants are natu-ral repellants to insects.
Marigolds deter mosqui-tos and aphids.
Try the following plants which are typically used in Asian gardens:
Trees: Japanese maple, Flowering cherry, Gingko and Podocarpus Install brick and stone edging to outline the areas of your yard.
Mix low-growing greenery with colorful flowers. Plant greenery with curved lines instead of straight or strict lines to add some dynamism.
Shrubs: Bamboo, Ca-mellia, Azalea, Pine and Juniper
Groundcovers & pe-rennials: Asiatic jasmine, Star jasmine, Ginger, Ferns, Liriope, Thyme, and Mondo grass.

Money Matters
Scenario: Your father was smart enough to have a trust drafted.
As a result, his proper-ty can pass to you and his other beneficiaries with-out the lengthy and costly process of going to pro-bate court. Now what?
When your father had a trust drafted, he became both the Trustor (trust creator) and the Trustee (the person in charge of the trust).
When he passed away,
Duties of successor trustee are many and should be taken seriously
your father named a suc-cessor trustee (the next person in charge of the trust) to administer the trust. But what are the du-ties of a successor trustee?
The answer: Many. The successor trustee has a fi-
duciary relationship with the beneficiaries, which means the successor trust-ee has a duty to act in the best interest of the named beneficiaries.
This general duty owed to beneficiaries has vari-
ous components. For ex-ample:
1. Duty to Disclose: A successor trustee has a duty to let trust beneficia-ries know when a trust be-comes irrevocable (upon the Trustor’s passing). A successor trustee must disclose a complete copy of the terms of the trust to a trust beneficiary, if re-quested.
2. Duty of Care: A suc-cessor trustee has a duty to follow what the Trustor
stated regarding distribu-tions of income or prin-cipal.
A successor trustee also has a duty not to comingle trust funds with personal funds.
3. Duty of Loyalty: A successor trustee must be unselfish and undivided in his/her loyalty to trust beneficiaries.
A successor trustee must avoid self-dealing by not deriving a personal gain in any way from his/
her administration of the trust. For example, a suc-cessor trustee should not sell a piece of real property to himself/herself at a dis-count solely for the benefit of the successor trustee.
Bottom Line: Being a successor trustee should not be taken lightly.
If you become a suc-cessor trustee, you should consult an attorney to ensure you are compliant with California law as a fiduciary.
This column is the second of a two-part seriesOnce a plan sponsor decides on the preferred option,
it should ask competing plan providers to submit a bid that documents estimated costs in terms of both dollars and basis points as a percent of plan assets on initial and expected ongoing costs.
The most common pitfalls we have seen relate to
accounting for overall plan costs, excessive average mutual fund net expense ratios, costly and opaque rev-enue-sharing arrangements and a lack of thorough un-derstanding of the role of a fiduciary.
Many of the pending lawsuits against plan sponsors have focused on transparency and plan costs – those charged by plan providers – as well as the cost of cer-
tain mutual funds or even particular share classes of mutual funds that make up the investment lineup.
The overall transpar-ency in plan costs is di-rectly related to average mutual fund net expense ratios and revenue-shar-ing arrangements.
The Department of Labor has pushed to in-crease cost transparen-cy with ERISA’s Section 408(b)(2) fee disclosure requirement.
Despite the govern-
ment’s well-intentioned efforts, however, it remains difficult to track overall costs. The most common rev-enue-sharing agreements are 12b-1 fees. A 12b-1 fee is essentially a fund rebate: If Fund A has an expense ratio of 1.25 percent and a 12b-1 fee of 0.25 percent, then the net cost of that fund to the plan would be 1 percent, assuming the 12b-1 fee is fully credited back to the plan to offset other cost components.
A careful evaluation process should result in lower and more transparent plan costs.
When combined with participant education and monitoring of investments in the portfolio, the result-ing plan should improve the likelihood of participants’ meeting their long-term investment goals while at the same time allowing plan sponsors to fulfill their duties in the Department of Labor’s eyes.

Mosquitoes have been around since the dino-saurs, and they will con-tinue to thrive on the plan-et. One way to keep them from biting is to wear insect repellent. Wearing loose light-fitting long-sleeve pants and shirts is highly recommended.
Also make sure there are no tears in your win-dow and door screens. Mosquitoes are small and can fit through even the smallest tears in doors or windows.

Temple City - When you decide to sell your home, setting your asking price is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. Depending on how a buyer is made aware of your home, price is often the first thing he or she sees, and many homes are discarded by prospective buyers as not being in the appropriate price range before they’re even given a chance of showing.Your asking price is often your home’s “first impression,” and if you want to realize the most money you can for your home, it’s imperative that you make a good first impression.This is not as easy as it sounds, and pricing strategy should not be taken lightly. Pricing too high can be as costly to a homeseller as pricing too low. Taking a look at what homes in your neighborhood have sold for is only a small part of the process, and on its own is not nearly enough to help you make the best decision. A recent study, which compiles 10 years of industry research, has resulted in a new special report entitled “Homesellers: How to Get the Price You Want (and Need).” This report will help you understand pricing strategy from three different angles. When taken together, this information will help you price your home to not only sell, but sell for the price you want.To order a FREE Special Report, call toll-free 1-888-300-4632 and enter 3016. You can call any time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Get your free special report NOW to learn how to price your home to your maximum financial advantage.

Public invited to Blue Star Recognition Dinner June 7By monique Weiland
Proceeds from the sale of donations at the Blue Star Banner Yard Sale, May 4, at the Alta Dena Dairy on Las Tunas Drive, will help fill the care packages sent to active military personnel from Temple City wherever they are serving in the world.
In fact, care packages were sent out in time for Easter full of candy, Girl Scout cookies, and other goodies.
Many thanks go out to Frances and Andrea Scorsone, Pat and Richard Wenzel, and the Fox family for their care package donations. Troops so enjoy receiving a box full of treats and love from their hometown.
The Blue Star team received notice that three more courageous Temple Citians have joined the military, ready to put their lives on the line so all of us can enjoy our way of life full of freedom and choices.

mer Recognition Dinner at Temple City Baptist Church.

Inadequate pain manage-ment and opioid overuse has taken a severe toll on the lives of tens of thousands of people in the United States.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Preven-tion (CDC), as many as one in four patients who receive pre-scription opioids long term for non-cancer pain in primary care settings struggles with ad-diction.
Every day, more than 1,000 people are treated in the ER for misusing prescription opioids.
Deaths involving opioids have quadrupled since 1999; in 2014 alone, more than 14,000
people died from overdoses in-volving the drugs. That same year, 2 million people abused or were dependent on opioids.
Beyond the risks of addic-tion and overdose, prescription drugs that numb pain may con-vince a patient that a musculo-skeletal condition is less severe than it is or that it has healed.
This misunderstanding can lead to overexertion and a delay in the healing process … or even permanent injury.
Chiropractic and other con-servative (non-drug) approach-es to pain management can be an important first line of de-fense against pain and addiction caused by the overuse of pre-scription opioid pain medica-tions.
In March 2016, the Centers for Disease Control and Pre-vention released guidelines for prescribing opioids that also promote non-pharmacologic alternatives for the treatment of chronic pain.
In 2015, the Joint Commis-sion, the organization that ac-credits more than 20,000 health care systems in the U.S., includ-ing every major hospital, recog-nized the value of non-drug ap-proaches by adding chiropractic and acupuncture to its pain management standard.
Britton Chiropractic can help with a care plan. Phone 626-447-0497 to make an ap-pointment. Britton Chiropractic accepts HMO, PPO, FSA HRA, Medicare and car accident cases.
Chiropractic and opioid epidemic: rethinking approach to painNew guidelines on low
back pain recommend use of non-drug treatments first

Laughlin, Associate Vice President Dr. Harish Amar, and myself, but the results couldn’t have been achieved without the active engagement of our entire school staff and community. On be-half of myself and the CiAM Board of Directors, I would like to express our sincerest gratitude to our school community for their dedication and commitment to this accreditation process. To-gether we have achieved a significant milestone in the history of the CiAM. The accreditation by WSCUC, a recognized international authority for school accreditation, is emblematic of the in-novative, dynamic, and student-centered nature of the CiAM’s high educational standards.

For the first time ever, Temple City has two Od-yssey of the Mind teams advancing to the World Finals.
After a season of in-tense competition, 14 Temple City High School students will have the opportunity to compete among top internation-al teams in a tournament that promotes ingenuity and out-of-the-box prob-lem solving.
Temple City Odyssey of the Mind teams raising funds for trip to World FinalsOdyssey of the Mind
(OM) is a creative prob-lem-solving competition for students of all ages. Teams of students select a problem, create a solution, then present their solution in a competition against other teams in the same problem and division.
“I am incredibly proud of what our Odyssey of the Mind students have ac-complished,” said Super-intendent Dr. Kimberly
Fricker. “These kids have gone beyond conventional thinking and are showcas-ing a truly creative mind-set.”
The OM teams earned their spot at the finals by placing in both the LA Ba-sin Regional Tournament and SoCal State Tourna-ment.
OM competitions al-low teams to apply their creativity to solve prob-lems that range from building mechanical de-vices to presenting their own interpretation of lit-erary classics.
Temple City Unified students have competed in the program for the past five years, but this is the first time its teams have qualified to advance to the world stage.
OM Coach Jeanette Johnson credits the suc-cess to a combination of talent and perseverance.
“The students participat-ing are not only solving challenging problems, they are choosing to solve problems with the highest degree of difficulty in the competition.”
More importantly, she said, is that the knowledge acquired in solving these problems translates to real
world skills. “In finding a solution, students are also learning to construct and use tools, work within a budget and adhere to time constraints.”
Temple City OM stu-dents are preparing to compete against 800 teams from across the U.S. and 25 other countries at
the program’s World Fi-nals, May 22-26, at Michi-gan State University.
Due to the sudden and unexpected need to raise funds for the trip, the team has established a Go-FundMe page.

Pets of the Month
Wallie and Cinnamon are a senior bonded pair who came to San Gabriel Humane from an LA City Shelter. They want to be adopted together.
Wallie is a 15-year-old Sharpei mix with a black coat touched by a bit of gray.
He is mellow and com-fortable with people and
enjoys getting attention. Cinnamon is a 10-year-old terrier mix who is less than
half Wallie’s size, but is clearly the dominant dog in their relationship.
Cinnamon also has a calm, easy-going personality and en-joys being with people.
Both dogs enjoy going for walks together and are easy to manage on the leash.
Both qualify for the Senior for Senior Adoption Discount Program and the Buddy System Adoption Program. Their adoption fees include neuter surgery, vaccinations, microchip and a free wellness exam at a participating veterinarian. Visit the San Gabriel Valley Humane Society from 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Tuesday through Sunday, at 851 E. Grand Ave., San Gabriel, CA 91776.
Visit www.sgvhumane.org for information and photos of all the pets. The shelter also provides animal control and licensing services to Temple City and is the friendly, local choice for low cost spay/neuter and vaccination services for your pet.
Wallie and Cinnamon qualify for Senior and Buddy Adoption programs
