NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on 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.

Gregg McClain Director of Planning Hawthorne Press Tribune Pub. 5/8/14 HH-24255 Looking Up By Bob Eklund For the first time an international team of astronomers has measured circular polarization in the bright flash of light from a dying star collapsing to a black hole, giving insight into an event that happened almost 11 billion years ago. Dr. Peter Curran from the Curtin University node of the International Centre for Radio Astronomy Research (ICRAR) was part of the team that observed gamma-ray burst 121024A—a bright flash of light emitted by a dying star collapsing to a black hole—and found a surprising detail in the light they collected. ICRAR is a joint venture between Curtin University and the University of Western Australia. The research was published May 1 in the journal Nature. “Gamma-ray bursts are so powerful that we can see them clearly at extraordinary distances,” Dr. Curran said. “But this one was an unusual case, its light had a strange feature—it was circularly polarized.” If light is polarized it means the waves are moving in a uniform way as they travel—either bouncing up and down or left and right for linear polarization, or in the case of circular polarization, corkscrewing An artist’s idea of what a star might look like as it emits a “gamma burst” just before collapsing.

Dr. Curran said 3D movies make use of circular polarization by feeding a different image to each eye through special glasses, giving the illusion of depth while watching a film. “Most light in the natural world is unpolarized, the waves are bouncing around at random,” he said. “But the light from this gamma-ray burst looked like it was part of a 3D movie—it was about 1,000 times more polarized than we expected. This means that the assumptions we’ve been making about gamma-ray bursts need to be completely reconsidered—assumptions of how electrons are accelerated to the incredible speeds we observe. Our results show that gamma-ray bursts are far more complex than we thought.” Gamma-ray bursts are the brightest objects in the entire universe, only lasting a fraction of a second, but sending out as much energy in that time as the Sun will in its entire life. These bursts are emitted by dying stars collapsing to black holes that form jets of material traveling at over 99.995 percent of the speed of light. “These extreme objects are like super-powered versions of the world’s largest and most powerful particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider, except very far away in space,” Dr. Curran said. “We can use them to study microscopic electrons and how they behave in extreme environments, at a great distance—in this case, 18,500 million light-years away, at a time when the universe was just a fraction of its current age. This is the first time we’ve found circular polarization in the light from a gamma-ray burst, but we think we’ll find it in more bursts in the future, so we can start to pin down what’s actually happening when these bright flashes of energy are released.” •
