Friends and acquaintances are invited to attend the gathering, which will be held at the home of Larragoitiy's mother, Leslie Fischer. The address is 28231 Winged Foot Drive in the Sun City commmunity of Menifee. The event will begin at 1 p.m.
Larragoitiy died from gunshot wounds suffered in a confrontation with police outside his home. However, his mother said he was well known to police and had received commendations for his efforts to deter crime in the neighborhood. Circumstances of his death remain under investigation.
"Many others chose to look the other way," Fischer said. "Not Mickey. He spent his last days assisting others for the good."
Larragoitiy was born in 1955 in Long Beach and graduated from Western High School in Anaheim. He worked for years as a cement mason in a trade that dated back to the 1940s in his family.
He is survived by his mother, Leslie Fischer; a son, Jason Larragoitiy of San Clemente; a brother, David Larragoitiy of Vista; and three grandchildren. Burial arrangements are pending.

Job Application Skills - Resume
A resume is one of the key components for you to present to potential employers. It is a summary of your employment history, educational background and competencies to show to the employers that you are an eligible candidate, and then to secure a chance for interview.
Here are some tips of preparing a standard format of a resume. Follow the basic rules and it will greatly reduce the chances of your resume being landed directly to dustbins.
- The content should be precise but able to present enough information as needed by employers. You may use sub-headings to organize your profile in specific sections, such as Summary, Education, Work Experience, Extra-Curricular Activities/Voluntary Involvement and Other Skills. Elaborate with examples, preferably with quantifiable achievement.
- Keep the CV within two A4 pages, to enable the employers to glance your qualifications at ease.
- Avoid too much personal information such as birth dates, marital status, personal health and affiliations. They are usually not important to the job you are applying.
- Use simple English and keep it error free. It is important to make sure your employers to understand what you write. Always check with the correct use of grammar and spelling.
- Remember to keep the descriptions short and straight to the point. You may use bullet statements when appropriate. Make good use of action words in the statement.
- Be honest with your qualifications and achievements. Your credibility would be ruined if the employers discovered you lie through reference checks or actual interview.
- Tailor your resume according to different job posts. Select the relevant experiences, achievements and skills that support your application to the job vacancy.
- Proofread and ask someone you trust to review your resume, to make sure others understand the information you try to present.
- Keep your CV updated from time to time.

Loved the music and the storyline and would easily go and see it again. Day 5 done.

A privately owned dam in Mid-Michigan failed and nearby residents are concerned about the risk of flooding in their neighborhoods.
They want to know who regulates the dam's condition and whether anything can be done to protect their property.
"My concern would be that it would contaminate our drinking water," said Lisa O'Connor.
She is terrified that an overflowed dam near her home may have contaminated her drinking water. Leon Graham doesn't think that drinking water is in danger but he does think this is a huge deal.
"It's going to affect a lot of people," he said.
The dam along the Cass River in Caro has two flood gates, but one failed. These residents want to know why, so they reached out to TV5 to get some answers.
TV5 tried to reach the owners of the dam, but they did not answer.
The Department of Environmental Quality said there is no immediate threat posed from the failure of the dam. In the meantime these residents said although there may be no danger, many will be feeling the impact for quite some time.

Police searched the rest of the neighborhood and eventually found more remains in a dumpster.

Dark Baba (Baba Ganoush, with skin)
Posted on September 2, 2014
Baba Ganoush, or Mutabal, is a dip or spread made with roasted eggplant, olive oil, tahini and lemon. My recipe research and memory from reading gags of cookbooks and cooking magazines over the years yielded little variation on this recipe, and for good reason: it's so good with just those four ingredients. I've also seen cumin included, and of course there's salt and pepper. Read More
Kyoho Grape and Cucumber Relish
Posted on August 31, 2014
Kyoho grapes are softer than your average supermarket grape that is available year round, and more prone to damage. At best they will last a week before fermentation sets in. They are a Concord cross and have a wonderful, heady, jammy aroma. While they have seeds and I normally shy away from seeded grapes, when I first sampled the kyoho this week at my favorite farmer's market I was so smitten I bought some, not caring that I would spend a bit of time slicing and seeding them.

My Perfect Bifteck Haché
Posted on August 27, 2014
It wouldn't be hard for you to guess the first meal I cooked for us upon our return from Oregon and countless meals of baked goods, berries, and hazelnuts, would it? No. A burger. Except I'm calling it Bifteck Haché, a name I quite like, thanks to a suggestion from Fitz. Indeed this was the perfect homecoming dish after a day that began by (1) Being rudely awakened to the sound of police helicopters for 2 hours; (2) the neighborhood cacophony of leaf blowers; (3) then what turned out to be a 2 hour trip to the post office to gather up our held mail, in which the elusive postal window man would periodically disappear and simply, smugly close his door to the line full of increasingly rageful customers, one of whom was yours truly.

This photo taken Feb. 14, 2014, shows certification stickers are affixed to bottles of California olive oil displayed and for sale at the All Things Olive shop in Washington. It's a pressing matter for the tiny U.S olive oil industry. Shoppers are more often pouring European oil _ it's cheaper and viewed as more authentic than the American competition. And that's pitting U.S. producers against importers of the European oil. Some liken the battle to the California wine industry's struggles to gain acceptance decades ago. The tiny California olive industry says European olive oil filling U.S. shelves often is mislabeled and lower grade. They're pushing the federal government to give more scrutiny to imported varieties. One congressman-farmer even goes as far as suggesting labels on imported oil say "extra rancid" rather than extra virgin. Stricter standards might help American producers grab more market share from the dominant Europeans. (AP Photo/Susan Walsh)

Charity calls for government action over winter deaths
Charity Age Cymru is calling for more to be done to prevent people dying during the winter months from cold-related illnesses.
The number of winter deaths rose from 1,260 between December 2011 and March 2012 to 1,900 in the same four months 2012/13.
We know that last winter older people in Wales were more likely to have cut back on their heating and eating than those anywhere else in the UK.
Rising energy prices are likely to mean more people are put in this position again this winter and this, combined with very cold weather, could be very dangerous for many older people.
– Graeme Francis, Age Cymru
The fact that older people in our communities are risking their health because they are afraid to turn up their heat or are going without food is clear evidence that we are failing them. The fact that people actually die in these entirely preventable circumstances is our national shame.

Coal shipments on the Great Lakes totaled 4.1 million net tons in November, an increase of 21 percent compared to a year ago. Shipments were also up nearly 7 compared to the month's 5-year average. Shipments of low-sulfur coal from Superior Midwest Energy Terminal in Superior, Wisconsin, accounted for most of the increase.
Nonetheless, the dredging crisis continued to hamper shipments. Not one coal cargo topped65,000 tons in November, and many were in the 63,000-ton range. If the Great Lakes were dredged to allow for full loads, some vessels would be carrying as much as 71,000 tons each trip, but the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers estimates it needs to remove 17 million cubic yards of sediment system-wide before vessels can utilize 100 percent of their rated capacity. Restoring the Great Lakes navigation system to project dimensions will require more than $200 million from the Harbor Maintenance Trust Fund. The Fund has a surplus of nearly $5 billion, but recent Administrations have not spent the tax-generated Fund for its intended purpose, maintaining the nation's deep-draft ports and waterways.
For the year, the Great Lakes coal trade stands at 36.1 million tons, an increase of 4.3 percent compared to a year ago. Year-to-date, however, the trade is slightly off its 5-year average.

What a difference three months and the threat of a lawsuit can make.
In August, state legislators denied requests by the Utah Democratic Party and The Salt Lake Tribune for documents related to the state's controversial redistricting efforts. The Legislative Records Committee said the records couldn't be released until a $9,250 bill was paid for producing the records.
On Friday afternoon, the Legislature performed what is commonly known as a "data dump." The Legislature placed all 16,000 pages of the redistricting documents online. And lawmakers also dropped their request for money.
House Speaker Becky Lockhart cited the Democratic Party's intention to sue for the documents as a reason for the sudden about-face. She said lawmakers didn't want to spend taxpayer's money defending the case in court.
"The taxpayers have paid for it as of now," Lockhart told Tribune reporter Lee Davidson about the data.
The Legislature's redistricting blog noted that media outlets, including the Tribune, Fox13 and ABC4, also requested the documents, which suggests that there is a public interest in the records.
Funny, but when the Tribune sought the records (lawmakers exempted themselves from having appeals heard before the State Records Committee), legislative lawyers pooh-poohed the idea that the Tribune deserved a fee waiver based on public interest.
"Research for a story by the media should be paid for by the media," said Bryant Howe, an attorney with the Office of Legislative Research and General Counsel, the Legislature's legal adviser. " A government entity should not be used as a taxpayer-funded research service for the media or any other private entity."
But under GRAMA, specifically UCA 63G-2-204(4), journalists are presumed to be acting in the public interest. And, one could argue, redrawing congressional and legislative districts is a matter of public interest, especially when there are charges of gerrymandering being raised.
Meanwhile, journalists and others are reviewing the data to see if, as the Republican-dominated Legislature claims, the records show no sign of wrongdoing in the redistricting process.
