articipants in this year’s Summer Youth Academy had six weeks of learning new things as well as traditional things. About 30 young people, ages 12 through 19, stayed busy with field trips, educational activities and cultural workshops. Made possible by Soboba Tribal TANF, the annual SYA program focuses on culture, leadership, higher education, wellness, prevention and community service. This year’s event was from June 17 through July 24 and included 20 youths from Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians with others being from the Cahuilla Band of Indians, the Santa Rosa Band of Cahuilla Indians and the city of Riverside.

Regional Prevention Manager Harold Arres said whether the youths had attended previous academies or if this was their first time, they all had to attend mandatory classes during the first week. These included an anti-bullying workshop, team-building activities and a visit from motivational speaker Joseph Matthews of the Morongo Band of Mission Indians who spoke about building a healthy relationship with the Creator. Field trips for eligible participants included a visit to Catalina Island after a tour of the Aquarium of the Pacific and Queen Mary in Long Beach at the end of June.

Behind the deceitful claims about the benefits of these drugs, the facts reveal a trail of violence and death in their wake

So many brave men and women choose to make the sacrifice to serve our great country, and as a result of their devotion to service often leads to injuries sustained in battle or service and results in a loss of freedom due to these injuries. The Veterans Mobility Project gives back to those that sacrificed so much, by providing a way for these Soldiers to regain some of that freedom. Having the ability to be independent is something we often take for granted. Going outside to enjoy a day at the park or just rolling up to the market without having to rely on someone else can make all the difference in a quality of life that is worth living and feeling the personal satisfaction of being self-sufficient. Pride begins to show in their faces and attitudes as they become accustomed to meeting their personal needs of independence. These men and women of our armed forces have given so much of themselves for our freedom, Veterans Mobility Projects gives some of that freedom back. In 2017, the question was asked, "How do we provide Veterans with mobility issues easier access to the devices they need? Cloverlane Foundation was instrumental in developing the partnership to bring the Veterans Mobility Project to be realized. Gerald Chase of Cloverlane Foundation, Michael Wofford of Empire Mobility and Russell Mills of American Legion Post 53 teamed up to design this project, and it has become successful in assisting the Veterans within the local communities to expedite getting a mobility device that meets their personal needs. From power wheelchairs, power scooters, to

devices tailored to help veterans perform their daily activities. We will also provide a Rollator as a rehabilitation device for a less severely injured veteran. This device will aid the individual and provide stability when walking. It will have brakes, a seat to rest when needed and a storage compartment for personal belongings. Honorably discharged veterans within our local communities are able to apply and obtain the benefits of this program enabling us to provide mobility assistance devices to those in need free of charge with all maintenance included at no cost. This can be accomplished faster than applying through the usual red tape of government agencies. All applications will be evaluated at no cost to determine the need for assistance as well as the type of device from power wheelchairs to lesser devices. The application process is simplified to speed up the approval process so awards can be promptly made. These mobility devices are awarded at public venues as awards to promote the program and grow community support.

n international study released this year documented 36 school shootings and school-related acts of violence committed by people either taking or withdrawing from psychiatric drugs. These resulted in 172 people wounded and 80 killed. One notorious example was Eric Harris who was on the antidepressant Luvox at the time he, along with Dylan Klebold, killed 11 people and then himself in the Columbine school shooting. There are also numerous documented cases of suicide and suicidal thoughts directly related to antidepressants such as Prozac, Paxil, and Zoloft. Tragically, statistics show that prescribing antidepressants is a rampant practice. One in six Americans takes some kind of psychiatric drug—mostly antidepressants. While as a correlation, suicide is currently one of the most common causes of death in America today. WHAT ARE ANTIDEPRESSANTS? Antidepressants are psychiatric drugs that are supposed to handle depression. These include Prozac, Paxil, Celexa, Lexapro, Luvox, Cymbalta, Zoloft, Effexor, and Remeron. They come in multicolored capsules and tablets. THE LETHAL EFFECTS OF ANTIDEPRESANTS Studies have shown that the negative effects of these drugs are diverse and many, including: • Violent thoughts and actions • Agitation

• Suicidal thoughts or suicide • Tremors • Irregular heartbeat • Aggression • Criminal behavior • Confusion and incoherent thoughts • Paranoia • Hallucinations • Psychosis

without them are too unbearable … I need more help getting through this Effexor withdrawal. I’m so depressed that I’ve started cutting my arms, and I’m not even sure why. Also, I hallucinate every few hours and see things—just today I saw blood dripping down my wall.”—Rita

Antidepressants have also been linked to akathisia, which is extreme restlessness and an inability to sit still. The discomfort can be so great that suicide becomes a welcome alternative to feeling this type of agitation. One study found that 14 percent of young people taking an antidepressant became aggressive and even violent. One 12-yearold boy developed violent nightmares about killing his classmates, then being shot himself. These dreams continued to feel “very real,” and he became acutely suicidal until the drug was stopped. This study gave several other examples of extreme and irrational behavior from individuals on these drugs. One man rammed a police officer with his vehicle so he could grab the officer’s gun and shoot himself. Another drowned himself and his two small children in a bathtub, and a boy bludgeoned a close friend for no apparent reason. None had any previous history of violence. Withdrawal symptoms of antidepressants include suicidal thoughts, aggression, anxiety, depression, crying spells, insomnia, dizziness, vomiting, headaches, tremors, and electric “zap” sensations in the brain. One woman, a former addict, relates: “My brain feels like it’s screaming at me to get more of these pills, the feelings I have

DEATH IN DISGUISE People who start taking antidepressants are misled to believe that these will help them cope with problems such as depression, anxiety or other social disorders. But what these poisons really do reveals a very dark picture indeed—and the ultimate betrayal is the lives they take every day. To the pharmaceutical industry, it’s not about individuals or their welfare; it’s about making billions of dollars a year. Yet every statistic represents a mother, a child, a father, a friend or a loved one lost. The problem is not a “mental problem”—it’s a humanity problem. THE SOLUTION The real answer is to get the facts and safeguard yourself and your future by not taking these harmful drugs in the first place. Consult a doctor or look for alternative solutions to handle any condition you may be suffering from. In the final analysis, drugs do more damage than any good. They destroy the body, impair the mind and can take everything from you. Help us educate others and end their destructive grip on our society.

Blue Water Vets Gain Agent Orange Benefits FREDDY GROVES | CONTRIBUTED

It passed! H.R. 299, known as the Blue Water Navy Vietnam Veterans Act of 2019, is now Public Law 116-23. It extends disability benefits to Blue Water Navy veterans who were presumed to be exposed to Agent Orange between Jan. 9, 1962 and May 7, 1975. It will take effect on Jan. 1, 2020 when the VA will begin processing claims. Here are some of the specifics you need to know: If you were on a vessel within 12 nautical miles of the Vietnam or Cambodian coasts, you may be eligible for presumption of exposure. You also may be eligible if you have any of the diseases previously connected with Agent Orange: AL amyloidosis, chloracne or similar acneform disease, chronic B-cell leukemias, diabetes mellitus Type 2, Hodgkin lymphoma, ischemic heart disease, multiple myeloma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, Parkinson's disease, early-onset peripheral neuropathy porphyria cutanea tarda, pros-

tate cancer, respiratory cancers (lung, bronchus, larynx or trachea) and some soft-tissue sarcomas. If you applied for AO disability and were turned down, file again. Eligible survivors should also file. If you're age 85 or older and you are ill, your claims will be processed first. We can thank in part the Institute of Medicine, which was asked years ago to determine whether shipboard veterans could possibly have been exposed to AO, and if so, how. The answer was in the water distillers that converted sea water into water used on the vessel for showers, coffee, laundry, etc. They called it a "plausible pathway of exposure." To determine if you're eligible for benefits, go online to www.va.gov and put Blue Water Veterans in the search box. Look for the first link, titled Agent Orange Exposure in Vietnam Waters (Blue Navy Veterans). You also can contact your Veteran Service Office or call the VA at 800-827-1000. And keep an eye on www.bwnvva.org, the Blue Water Navy Association website.

Early Morning Fire Damages Valle Vista Mobile Home A mobile home was damaged by fire on Tuesday morning in the unincorporated Valle Vista area of Riverside County near Hemet. Firefighters responded to the blaze in the 45000 block of Highway 74 at 12:37 a.m. and located half of the mobile home on fire, according to then Riverside County Fire Department. A knockdown was declared at 12:59 a.m. No injuries were reported and the cause of the fire was under investigation. City News Service

SAN JACINTO

Work Nears Completion on Corridor Connecting San Jacinto and MoVal Nightly closures on Gilman Springs Road connecting Moreno Valley and San Jacinto are no longer necessary, with most of the resurfacing project on a nine-mile stretch of the corridor completed, Riverside County transportation officials announced today. Closures on Gilman Springs from state Route 79 to the Moreno Valley (60) Freeway began on June 3 and continued five nights a week until last week, according to the Transportation & Land Management Agency. Officials said the nighttime shutdowns enabled Watsonville-based Granite Construction Inc. to expedite completion of the $4.69 million Gilman Springs Resurfacing Project, which involved overlaying new asphalt, repairing distressed sections of roadway, upgrading guardrails, replacing rumble stripes, improving shoulder space and reconstructing drains. "These improvements will go a long way making Gilman Springs Road safer, but it is important that motorists remember to drive safely,'' said TLMA spokeswoman Patty Romo. "Don't get distracted, and don't get behind the wheel when impaired. We are partners in making our roads safer.'' Only a small section of roadway now requires improvement, but that will not necessitate full closures -- only temporary single-lane travel under the supervision of road crews, Romo said. During the project, access from the 60 to Gilman Springs was not available between 8 p.m. and 5 a.m., though residents whose properties could only be accessed from Gilman Springs were able to utilize the corridor from Alessandro Boulevard in Moreno Valley. The road was also closed to the south at the junction with Highway 79. A separate $150,000 project on Gilman Springs this month entailed erecting 2-foot-high yellow plastic reflecting devices to serve as traffic dividers on the heavily used artery. The dividers have been placed 50 feet apart in most locations. However, along tight curves, they're be only 25 feet apart, Romo said. Deadly collisions have occurred on the route over the years. In May, a 48-year-old Moreno Valley woman was killed when a motorist illegally crossed two sets of double yellow lines on Gilman Springs to pass a slower vehicle, slamming head-on into the victim's sedan.

firefighters from four engine companies, along with AMR and sheriff ’s deputies, responded to the blaze around 7:45 p.m., after receiving reports of a residential structure fire, Riverside County Fire Department spokesman Rob Roseen explained in an incident report. They were assisted by a Breathing Support Unit and Paramedic Squad. As officials were responding to the scene, they reported heavy smoke and flames billowing from the residence, with area residents trying to put out the flames. “The first arriving engine reported a single family mobile home with working fire,” explained Roseen. Firefighters immediately began an aggressive attack on the fire, and managed to quickly knock down the blaze. “However, one con-

Although witnesses later said the victim was a 78-year-old woman, the person’s name has not been released, pending identification and notification of the victim’s family. Witnesses at the scene later reported that a person, possibly a teenage juvenile who resides near the home, attempted to save the victim. According to witnesses, the minor accessed the residence

through its back yard and kicked open a back door to the home; however, upon entering the residence the would-be, teenage rescuer was pushed back by the intense heat caused by the blaze. Although the home was left heavily damaged and uninhabitable by the fire, there were no reported injuries to other citizens or firefighters, according to Roseen. An arson investigator later responded to the scene to investigate the cause of the deadly blaze, which is still under investigation.

Player ProFIle Damonce Williams PLAYER PROFILE

SJHS’s Possession Reciever

KYLE HEADLEE | STAFF WRITER

his week's Player Profile features Damonce Williams. He is a wide receiver and is entering his junior year at San Jacinto. He has been on Varsity since he was a freshman and a key feature in Coach Galliano's offense. Damonce is a twosport varsity athlete for the Tigers. He is every threat and possesses the kind of natural breakaway speed that throws many defensive backs off guard. Monce has learned not to show his speed right away; he will jog through routes and accelerate out of the break causing defensive players to hesitate and lose their grip on him. Coach Galliano had this to say about him, "Damonce is a hard worker, good route runner with excellent hands. He is his biggest critic; it makes him push harder to become a great WR." Last year Damonce banked in 8 touchdowns, this season

he is hoping to have a break out year and get some college attention. Every practice he is putting in the work and is getting better and better. Damonce's favorite route to run is a post corner, he likes 50/50 balls and competing for those balls. He has been playing football since he was nine years old. Damonce instantly noticed how when he was playing football, he wasn't getting in trouble and decided that he would stick with it. That's his number one thing that he loves about football; it keeps him too busy to mess around. Damonce finished last year's school year with a 3.5 GPA; he is hoping to get that even higher this year. His favorite subject is reading, and he enjoys the quiet time he can spend away from the world. When Damonce isn't playing Football or Basketball, he spends his free time playing video games. He loves to play 2k (NBA basketball video game) and Mad-

den (NFL Football Game). Monce is determined to graduate from college and dreams of going to AU (Arizona University) to major in business. He hopes to launch his own clothing company and successfully start a business empire. Monce is thankful to Coach G for taking a chance on him during his freshman year and never giving upon him. He feels like Coach G has his back and wants to make him proud. Most of all Monce is excited for this upcoming year, and he feels like the Tigers left too much on the table and wants to get back to the championship round to get the chance to show that they deserve that CIF championship ring.

Coach Galliano told his team they have to earn their spot, and this is where they do it. Conditioning is getting better; most of the team is completing drills and runs with gas still left in the tank. From an outside perspective, you can see how the team is starting to gel into a unit together. The team went into full scrimmage mode, (without pads and tackling) but definitely, there was a "Us Vs. Them" mentality when the offense took the field against the defense. The big defensive tackle Sheldon Newton was coming through the offensive line with power and speed right at quarterback Kajiya Hollowayne (who was recently offered a full-ride athletic scholarship to UCLA) In this drill you aren't allowed to touch your quarterback, but that didn't stop Sheldon from engaging in friendly trash talk telling Kajiya, "I woulda smacked you, boy,." Kajiya responded with a smile and an eye roll as to say, "Yeah, I'm sure about that." The intensity only picked up from there. One of the wide receivers ran the wrong route resulting in a defensive interception. Kajiya wasn't happy about that and took control of the scrimmage; he started making reads, getting out of the pocket when under pressure and moved his offense downfield. As good as Kajiya and his offense is, it's the defense I was impressed with this week. Kajiya was always under pressure, and when his receivers caught the ball, they were instantly swallowed up by three or four defenders. The team then transitioned to one on one drills, Wide Receivers vs. Defensive Backs. This is where kids who are trying out for the team make names for themselves and get attention from the coaching staff. Two players constantly lined up against each other and went head to head multiple times, the defensive player intercepted two balls and batted down a hand full, but that didn't stop the wide receiver from getting in his reps. He regularly ran great routes, making strong cuts in and out of his route, and showed excellent hands. Catching balls that were a little high or a little low. The competition between the two of them was great, neither were angry when the other guy won the match-

These week's practices were intense, but Coach Galliano and his staff are trying to make sure his team is ready for when they get pads on in the coming weeks. That's when the physicality of the game reaches a new level, and you find out who is cut out for it and who isn't. Until then, Coach Galliano and his staff are working hard to make sure every player knows the playbook and what they have to do in their position.

e went to South Africa and conquered the best they had to offer. He came home with a championship belt. He has been patiently waiting in the shadows, working on his game, and looking for his next opportunity to strike. That opportunity is here now where he will meet in the cage against Chi Chopper Lewis Perry, a 35-year-old Heavyweight with a 7-0 record fighting out of London. Perry would have a 100% finish ratio, but he has one draw and two no contests (no contests usually result when a fighter breaks a rule that results in the fight-ending). He will travel down to our neck of the woods to face our hometown hero Jared "The Mountain" Vanderaa. This fight is scheduled to take place in Riverside Ca, on August 30th (Venue to be determined) and in essence serves as a number one contender fight. The winner will hope to make a quick jump back into the cage to challenge the Current Heavyweight champ as a stepping stone to get into the UFC and fight in the octagon. Jared is entering this fight with a 9-3 record, but two of those losses where highly questionable decisions that many feel like should have gone his way. His other loss came via submission late in a fight that he

was winning on the scorecards. Jared has a 100% finishing rate with six KO/TKO's and three submissions. He is ready to take this fight anywhere it's going to go. Jared has been in camp for a couple of months training with fighters who are currently on the UFC roster to be ready for this fight. If you ask Jared how he feels going into the fight, he will tell you how confident he currently is. Jared feels like he is 100% a better fighter then he was when he won the EFC Heavyweight title. Jared has been training at Dan Henderson's Athletic Center, Team Quest Athletic Center, and with other various fighters to work on specialties. Jared is ready to take this fight wherever it may go, but he won't take his opponent lightly. He knows that his opponent is known for being very aggressive and an angry fighter. I expect Jared Vanderaa to play it smart, choose his shots, and try to wear his opponent out. One thing Jared prides himself on is his stamina and tenacity to keep fighting until he hears the final bell rings. Tickets go on sale soon, let's show our support for Hemet's fighter Jared Vanderaa and show up to the fight in Riverside. If you have any questions about tickets and venue email me at VCsportsKyle@gmail.com and I’ll email you when there is more information available.

NEWSPAPER LINGO

The newspaper bih’niss and its lingo The language of newspapers and print has a colorful history… and a bright future MARK LENTINE | STAFF WRITER

ar·got /ˈärɡō,ˈärɡət/ noun noun: argot; plural noun: argots the jargon or slang of a particular group or class. jar·gon /ˈjärɡōn,ˈjärɡən/ noun noun: jargon; plural noun: jargon the specialized vocabulary of those in the same work, way of life, etc. Both definitions courtesy of Merriam-Webster online The Oxford English Dictionary (OED) defines a newspaper as, “a printed publication (usually issued daily or weekly) consisting of folded unstapled sheets and containing news, feature articles, advertisements, and correspondence.” By 1649, newspapers, journals and periodically periodicals were collectively referred to as the press according to the OED. This of course comes from the printing press. By the mid-late 1800s, the term press came to refer to journalists in general and by extension, it also came to mean any type of journalistic coverage. The colloquial usage of both the term newsman and journalist came about by the late 17th century, says the OED. By then, a weekly newspaper called the Boston News-Letter “became the first continuously published newspaper in the colonies.” And what if you want to slur a newspaper? (not ours of course), you’d call it a rag. Why? “Cotton was first used with a mixture of silk to make paper called Carta Bombycina. In the 1800s, fiber crops such as flax fibers or cotton from used cloths (rags) were the primary material source. By the turn of the 20th century, most paper was made from wood pulp, but cotton is still used in specialty papers.”-Wikipedia By 1810 according to the OED, if you were a writer for hire, you might be called a hack, and by the 1870s a story you got before a competitor was called a beat or a scoop. What follows is a glossary of newspaper and printing a newspaper terms, both old and new. The newspaper profession may not have always been held to the high journalistic standards we have today (ahem)... but it’s sure been colorful.

A PLACE FOR KIDS…TO BE KIDS

At-risk kids are at home at My City Youth Center MARK LENTINE | STAFF WRITER

t a former school, at-risk youth are working out their souls, their minds, their bodies and their problems... all under the supervision of a caring staff headed by Dan Harris, Executive Director of My City Youth Center, 145 N. Tahquitz Avenue, Hemet. “We were renting a Presbyterian Church, gymnasium, but we moved out of it. In 2013, we bought this abandoned school. We’ve continued to grow. Our next expansion will be an almost-15,000 square foot building the plans of which are being drawn-up now,” says Harris, adding “this has been a community effort from the beginning, and the community helps these kids whenever they need it,” says the Pastor as he points to a magnificently-stocked music room that’s always packed with instruments-and students. “Julio from Harvard Music Exchange has been incredibly kind and helpful.” The school/hang-out/ youth center has a recording studio as well...they just need someone to run it. “It’s ready to go, we just need someone with the know-how,” says Harris. Police, Firefighters, volunteers, and concerned residents meet here every Tuesday for free coffee and donuts at the My City Cafe from 8 am to 11 am to discuss the Center and its mission. City Council member Karlee Meyer attends almost every Tuesday. Left to their own devices, many of these kids would fall through the cracks of society…and the Center uses whatever it can to keep them on a positive path. “We hold dance classes, we hold cooking classes-we have 10 art classes, 8 children per-class...and the kids want more.” Harris says that they’d like to add automotive classes as well, for older students. “We need these kids to learn to dream again,” says Harris who is always shocked when he asks newcomers about their dreams: “The younger kids are always excited-life hasn’t beaten them down yet, which is a good thing. But it’s sad when I ask 20 and 30-something-year-olds, “What do you want to be in the future?” They just look at me. They’ve stopped learning how to dream: they have no hopes, no ambitions. We give that back to them,” says Harris pointing to a wall where children

post their life-goals. “We want to fill this wall with the hopes and dreams of every child that comes here.” The Center is not only helping to fulfill the hopes and dreams of many of the children who enroll here, but it’d also tending to the hopes and dreams of the children they’re carrying. “Teen pregnancy is something we knew we had to address, so we started “The mommy shop.” In this special part of the Center, expectant teen mothers can shop for all their needs. They earn “Mommy bucks” by staying in school, getting good grades, attending mothering classes… and father’s who otherwise may have been absent, are now learning the need for responsibility as well, by earning bucks for many of the same things. “We try and instill personal responsibility for actions that many of these children haven’t learned in their homes,” says Harris, who estimates that mothers spend approximately $600 each month on their newborns. The Center has big plans to go along with its big expansion. “Eventually, we’d like to have a vocational school where young people ages 16 to 30 can learn how to work with their hands, get a job, fill out a resume, and learn proper techniques on how to conduct themselves in a job interview.” It’s a tall order, but My City Youth Center certainly seems up to the task. For those interested in donating their time or talent, contact the My City Youth Center at 951652-0647.

BIBLE WORLD ANSWERS

ithout question, in addition to the schools we attended as we were growing up, the most important institution in our lives is the Church we visited at least once a week. Aside from the aspect of religion, all churches regardless of denomination seek to propagate the same values of goodness to all things living through Ministers who have spent many years studying their craft and whom we trust. We learned to accept, respect and practice the teachings of our chosen church and their representatives because we know they are true and will always guide us on the righteous path. In these modern days, however, churches must compete for the time of their parishioners with so many distractions, not the least of which is Information Technology that has permeated our society everywhere. The question is how can this institution remain engaged vis-à-vis forces pulling in opposite directions? How can the time honored teachings of the church prevail in an environment competing for the attention of the same people but whose message for some is more engaging and easier to understand and digest? Some churches seem to be doing well as they fill large auditoriums with people, bringing in large sums of money to pay for audiovisual presentations, musical groups, expensive guest speakers and the like. Others

still reach out the good old fashioned way in a smaller more humble and familiar setting where the message can be communicated without all the amenities. The method used by the various churches are a result of what works for them in the matter of attracting parishioners. Not all parishioners are the same and happily here in Hemet and San Jacinto there is a setting available for every inclination. In Hemet and San Jacinto, we are blessed with churches of all denominations, some large and some small, that interact with the community in traditional fashion during weekly services and dedicate the rest of the week to outreach activities through food, clothing drives, and others. They minister to the old and infirm, the incarcerated and homeless, they preach the good word to all who will

listen and return many lost lives to an honorable and noble path. Here in Hemet and San Jacinto, we are indeed fortunate in having men and women of the cloth dedicating their entire lives to such a noble calling and by constantly reminding us all of the need to be tolerant and truthful adherents to the Golden Rule. The best metric to measure the quality of life of a community, large or small, is not only by how many restaurants, movie houses, parks and the like exist, but by the number of churches and the manner in which they interface with each other and with the townspeople. Here in Hemet and San Jacinto, I can enthusiastically affirm that our clergy is alive and kicking performing their fundamental mission with energy, love and charity.

Being around children put a smile of true joy on her face. She also enjoyed helping and serving others.

Numerous witnesses and good Samaritans had stopped at the scene and were providing aid and comfort to the downed rider, while keeping the other involved driver calm.

The rider had sustained severe trauma and was bleeding profusely from a serious injury to his right leg and paramedics immediately began evaluating and treating the seriously injured man. He was eventually rushed to an area hospital for further treatment and his current condition was not available as of this publication.

While working at the scene, officials called for the temporary closure of westbound Florida Ave. and all traffic was diverted away from the accident scene. Hemet PD is investigating the cause of the crash and their investigation is ongoing at the scene. Officials have asked for area residents to seek alternate routes until their crash investigation is completed.

Catalina included hiking, snorkeling, kayaking and exploration of nature. It was a SYA highlight for many including Soboba’s Ronald Morillo and Luisa Rivera. “We went to a new island and saw buffalo,” said Rivera, 13. “It was so calm over there.” July 2 found the group working in collaboration with Soboba’s Tribal Environmental Department and Public Works departments for a community clean-up day. Elders signed up if they needed help with items to be hauled away and the youths pitched in. On July 16, they went to the Jr. American Indian Chamber of Commerce Youth EXPO at Agua Caliente Resort in Rancho Mirage. Soboba’s Hattie Arres, 15, enjoyed the cooking segments that were offered on July 11 and thought this year’s participants interacted well with each other and were very friendly. Everyone enjoys a trip to Disneyland but SYA attendees got the bonus of seeing the park as part of the Disney Youth Education Series. The three-hour leadership experience on July 21 enabled them to discover Walt Disney’s secret to making dreams come true. Students learned how to develop their own leadership legacy, become confident in their ability to accomplish goals and be motivated to achieve the impossible.

During the academy’s final week, youths were taught the basics of arrow making with Tony Soares, who had also led a pottery-making workshop the previous week. Caratachea and other adults from the program assisted the youths when and where needed, encouraging them to ask questions as the lessons progressed. Soares has been teaching Native American techniques for about 25 years at many reservations and schools. He has been making pottery and arrowheads since he was very young after making trips to many Southwest museums and ruins with his grandmother and great aunt.

For his workshop at Soboba, the students were taught how to make big pinch pots using puki bowls, which he said is more of a Pueblo method. “The kids did great; it does take a few tries to learn the language of clay,” said Soares, 50. The Joshua Tree resident has made a movie about paddle and anvil pottery, available on YouTube at TonySoaresNativeClays. For the arrow-making class, some chose to make them out of Carrizo cane or Arrowweed and others chose a more modern material – wooden dowels, which could be painted. While students used sandpaper and other methods to prepare the wood, Soares explained how it was traditionally done, using rocks. “It is amazing when you think of the time, effort and ingenuity that went into making bows and arrows using only natural tools that were available to them back in the day,” Soares said. Andrew Alto, from Santa Rosa, said he really enjoyed all the culture-related activities offered at the academy and enjoyed this year’s SYA better than the one he attended last year. “I like anything that has to do with our culture,” said Alto, 15, as he continued to work on his arrow.

f you are looking for some moral argument around Cannabis then this isn’t the article for you. This article will dig into the pros and cons of investing in the new cannabis marketplace. This has been one of the hottest topics in all forms of media across the nation. Our neighbor to the north is light-years ahead of the U.S. Some liken it to the gold rush era of the Wild West. This market and laws around it move very, very quickly. This can cause confusion and decisions based on false information. From private companies to public, there are numerous ones out there to look at and consider. Investment managers have built portfolios of cannabis companies that are stated to expand diversification and reduce risks. Sectors of the economy expanding into Cannabis include medical, food and beverage, tobacco, security, transportation, processing, automation, real estate, chemical and fertil-

ANDREW F. KOTYUK: CEO and Principal of Alpha Wealth Management LLC. | Courtesy Photo izer, and manufacturing. A new world has opened up and embraced Cannabis as a multi-billion-dollar industry to start. An investor can directly invest in a cannabis company that cultivates, manufactures, and sells its wares. Another option is to indirectly invest in the industry through companies that support cannabis producers. Mentioned earlier, this could be new plastic bags, or the RFID used to track-and-trace

that states require. There is a hub of businesses that are in the business but not in the business. When building a position or selecting a company to invest in it is important to understand that you may already have exposure through an existing position. For example, Constellation Brands (STZ), an alcohol company with operations worldwide that produces brands like Corona, Modelo, and Ballast Point, is in the business. Constellation owns 38% of Canopy Growth, a Canadian Pot Producer. The same is true for many companies. It is hard for them not to push into a new high growth area. After all there are two congressional bills moving through the Hill right now to allow cannabis companies to bank with FDIC institutions and to move it from a Class 1 to a Class 3 drug. With the illegal becoming legal, a new opportunity has arisen and isn’t likely to go up in smoke.

PROFILE IN SERVICE

Corinne Awad believes that her mission is in helping people RUSTY STRAIT | COLUMNIST

hen one is considered for any plaudit as being applauded for dedication to service in the community, it is usually a person over fifty. Corrine Awad defies all of those presumptions. At 42 (she looks about 25) she has packed in a lot of merits and obligations. “I was a military brat,” she says, “but my older sister suffered most of military life. I came along later in my father’s career in the United States Air Force.” Born at the military hospital at Dover, Delaware Air Force base, she later went with her family when her father was transferred to a base in Germany. However, she spent most of her growing up years in Moreno Valley. When her father was transferred from Germany to El Segundo, south

of Los Angeles the family settled into Moreno Valley and her father commuted to El Segundo. “I went to a few different elementary and high schools, but graduated from March Mountain High School in Moreno Valley. I later attended Mount San Jacinto Community College in San Jacinto, where I now live with my husband and five children.” One of her first jobs was with work-study through the college which prepared her for a future in office-related duties. “I worked full time while attending Azusa Pacific University, where I received my Bachelor’s degree in organizational leadership.” She wanted more, however, and in 2016 entered a program at California Baptist University and received a Master’s Degree in public administration. With all this time preparing herself for the fu-

ture, she managed to get married and produce a family of four daughters and a son. “My son came between daughters. Two older and two younger and he turned out pretty good considering all the attention he received from all the females in the home.” She currently holds a position as a government affairs officer for the Department of Waste Resources for the County of Riverside. “We run all the landfills for Riverside County and manage many programs that allows me to be integrated into many communities - for instance, outreach and educational programs to promote reuse and recycling, which offers different classes like composting and information regarding recycling and where it goes and how it is put to use.” She works a great deal with municipal advisory councils. It is amazing all the good that comes from

what most of us would consider trash. So much of recycled materials become useful in so many ways and does not end up in a landfill. “My duties take throughout Riverside County. In fact, this morning, I met with civic leaders down in the desert on some specified programs.” Her first real exposure to what came to be her first love was when she went to work with former Third District Supervisor Jeff Stone of Riverside County. “It was a dream position. I was a legislative assistant in Mr. Stone’s office for ten years, which opened up a wonderful avenue of personal service to the constituents of the Third District.” She would also work for Supervisor Tavilogne in the Second District. “I never realized just how much I was doing and how important my job was until later on.

It is not always something coming from me, but I’m able to work with people that I’ve met through the Supervisor’s office.” She believes that her mission is in helping people who are suffering from red tape or not knowing where to go for assistance.

“I love figuring out how we can help someone or getting problems solved. I have been involved with the Homeless Outreach Team. In one instance, I helped obtain grants to provide for Second District homeless.” In February of this year, she was appointed to the San Jacinto Planning Commission. She is somewhat shy about her contributions and usually refers to them as “learning experiences.” She is far more than just a student. “I have always enjoyed helping others. Much of my after-hours time is dedicated to meetings and assistance to others.” She considers any new obligations as “another opportunity to work for my city and being involved with my community beyond a normal 8 hour day at the office.

SECOND DEBATE

DETROIT

The Latest: Democrats close debate Debate puts Biden’s by focusing on Trump long legislative record in the hot seat AP | CONTRIBUTED

STEVE PEOPLES AND SARA BURNETT | AP

he ideological divisions gripping the Democratic Party intensified on Wednesday as presidential candidates waged an acrimonious battle over health care, immigration and race. Biden, who found himself the target of criticism from nearly half the candidates on the debate stage, was forced to defend his decades-old political record on multiple fronts as other White House hopefuls sought to tear him down. One of his chief rivals, California Sen. Kamala Harris, charged that Biden’s past work with segregationists in the U.S. Senate could have prevented Barack Obama from becoming the nation’s first black president. “Had those segregationists had their way, I would not be a member of the United States Senate, Cory Booker would not be a member of the United States Senate, and Barack Obama would not have been in a position to nominate” Biden to become vice president. When pressed, Biden repeatedly leaned on his relationship with Obama. “We’re talking about things that occurred a long, long time ago,” Biden said. He added: “Everybody’s talking about how terrible I am on these issues. Barack Obama knew who I was.” Biden and Harris also had a spirited exchange over health care, with Harris saying Biden’s plan was too timid and the former vice president saying that the senator’s plan was vague and far too expensive. But it was the discussion of race that marked an escalating rift in the Democratic primary just two weeks after President Donald Trump issued racist calls for four female congresswomen of color to leave the country, even though all of them are American citizens. Over the weekend, Trump again took aim at a prominent congressman of color, charging that “no human being would want to live” in his “rat-infested” Baltimore district, which has a large black community. This is an internal fight many Democrats do not want, fearing that it could alienate some white voters they would like to reclaim from Trump in 2020. For Biden’s struggling competitors, however, they see no better way to undermine his candidacy than raising questions about his commitment to black voters. While Biden took many hits on the stage, there were multiple opponents aiming for Harris as well. Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard tore into Harris’ record as a prosecutor and attorney general in California. Biden, who leads virtually all early polls, is considered the leading moderate onstage. In addition to Harris, Booker and Gabbard, his more progressive

opponents include New York Mayor Bill de Blasio, former Obama administration housing chief Julián Castro, New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, Washington Gov. Jay Inslee and entrepreneur Andrew Yang. The evening opened with a spirited exchange over the future of health care. Biden charged that Harris’ plan would cost taxpayers $3 trillion even after two terms in office and would force middle-class taxes to go up, not down. He said that would put Democrats at a disadvantage against Trump. “You can’t beat President Trump with double talk on this plan,” he said. Harris slapped back that Biden was inaccurate. “The cost of doing nothing is far too expensive,” Harris said. She added: “Your plan does not cover everyone in America.” There were also tense exchanges on immigration that pitted the 76-year-old Biden against a younger slate of more diverse candidates. There were no candidates of color onstage in the first wave Tuesday night. On Wednesday night, there were four. Biden was flanked by Harris on one side and Booker on the other. As Biden greeted Harris onstage moments before the opening statements, he quipped, “Go easy on me, kid.” Biden suggested that some of his rivals favor immigration laws that are far too forgiving. Castro, for example, would decriminalize illegal border crossings. “People should have to get in line. That’s the problem,” Biden charged. Castro shot back: “It looks like one of us has learned the lessons of the past and one has not.” While the first primary votes won’t come for six more months, there is a sense of urgency for the lower-tier candidates to break out. More than half the field could be blocked from the next round of debates altogether — and possibly pushed out of the race — if they fail to reach new polling and fundraising thresholds implemented by the Democratic National Committee. The dire stakes have forced many Democrats to turn against one another in recent weeks. But they also blasted the impact of the Trump administration on American life. Biden said Trump was tearing at the “fabric of America” and highlighted the value of diversity in his opening statement. “Mr. President, this is America,” Biden said of the diverse slate of candidates on stage. Harris also referenced Trump’s divisive presidency. “This becomes a moment we must fight for the best of who we are,” Harris said. “We are better than this.”

he Latest on Wednesday’s Democratic presidential debate (all times local):

10:45 p.m. Democratic presidential candidates are closing their second primary debate by focusing on President Donald Trump. After taking on each other for more than two hours, all 10 candidates have mentioned the Republican president as the real opponent. Former Vice President Joe Biden says the 2020 election is “a battle for the soul of America.” Sen. Kamala Harris calls the president a “predator” and a “coward” and says she’s the ideal nominee to debate him next fall. Sen. Cory Booker says the nation’s “crisis is Donald Trump, but not only Donald Trump.” Booker says beating Trump “is the floor, not the ceiling.” 10:30 p.m. California Sen. Kamala Harris says President Donald Trump “needs to be held accountable” for what she sees as 10 prosecutable offenses in special counsel Robert Mueller’s report on Russian interference in the 2016 election. Harris spoke Wednesday during an impeachment discussion at the Detroit debate. On the trail, the former prosecutor regularly talks about the need to “prosecute the case” against Trump. Former Housing Secretary Julian Castro says the “evidence is plain and clear.” New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker is calling on lawmakers to “begin impeachment proceedings immediately.” New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio is issuing a cautionary note, saying he supports impeachment but elected officials shouldn’t get so wrapped up in the debate they neglect the “people’s business.” 10:25 p.m. New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand is blasting former Vice President Joe Biden for once opposing a decades-old tax credit for working mothers and fathers. Gillibrand is suggesting that meant that Biden opposed women working outside the home. Biden responds, “That was a long time ago.” He says he now supports an $8,000 tax credit for working families. Gillibrand kept pressing, prompting Biden to note that she had previously traveled with him to promote his work supporting equal pay for women. Biden adds of Gillibrand’s seeming change of heart, “I don’t know what’s happening except that you’re now running for president.” Gillibrand says, “I respect you deeply.” But she is asking if Biden believed there was a problem with women working outside the home. Biden says, “I never believed it.” 10:15 p.m. Former Vice President Joe Biden is distancing himself from a trade deal that was a centerpiece of the Obama administration. Biden said on the debate stage in Detroit on Wednesday that he would “renegotiate” the Trans-Pacific Partnership but not simply rejoin the pact “as it was initially put forward.”

President Donald Trump pulled out of the Obama-era deal two years ago. New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio is noting that then-Sen. Biden supported the original NAFTA trade deal, and challenged Biden on a new Trump proposal he termed “NAFTA 2.0.” That led to a back-and-forth with Biden, whom de Blasio has previously called out of touch. “We believe in redemption in this party,” de Blasio said. Biden replied, “Well, I hope you’re part of it.”

10:05 p.m. Democratic presidential candidates have plenty of theories about why President Donald Trump won the Midwest and how they can take it away from him in 2020. Joe Biden is reminding a Detroit debate audience that he helped implement bills during the Great Recession that helped bail out General Motors. Sen. Cory Booker says Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin were lost because of Russian meddling and Republican suppression of black votes, and Booker says he’d prioritize nonwhite voters to flip those states. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand notes her electoral success in upstate New York to prove she can reach swing voters. Andrew Yang says winning requires making a case to Midwesterners that the growing economy “has left them behind.” 10 p.m. New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand says engaging with climate change will be her top priority if elected president — but the first thing she’ll do if elected is “Clorox the Oval office.” Democratic presidential candidates are largely agreeing on the overall goal of addressing climate change but differing in degrees of urgency. Washington Gov. Jay Inslee says former Vice President Joe Biden’s climate plan doesn’t move the nation fast enough off of fossil fuels. Inslee says “middle-ground solutions like the vice president has proposed ... are not going to save us. Too little, too late is too dangerous.” Biden says he is committed to re-engaging the international community on combating climate change and re-joining the Paris Climate Accord. 9:55 p.m. The Democratic presidential candidates are being asked about water crisis in Flint, Michigan, about 70 miles from where the Detroit debate is occurring. New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio is being asked about children living in his city’s public housing who tested positive for elevated levels of lead in their bloodstream. Flint residents had similar problems, caused by lead in their drinking water. De Blasio says the problem is decades old but declining, and he is vowing to eradicate it. Former Obama administration housing secretary Julián Castro says he’d spend $50 billion to combat lead as a public health threat. Flint’s water crisis was a major issue in Michigan during the 2016 election, when Donald Trump won

the state.

9:50 p.m. Julián Castro is the second Democratic presidential candidate in Wednesday’s debate to explicitly label President Donald Trump a “racist.” The former Obama Cabinet secretary was among several candidates hammering Trump as they sought to stand out on issues of race. Washington Gov. Jay Inslee called Trump a “white nationalist.” Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand says she feels responsibility as “a white woman” to challenge institutional racism. She says it’s not just up to the two leading black candidates, Sens. Kamala Harris and Cory Booker, to talk about race. Sen. Michael Bennet is chiding CNN moderators for asking questions about former Vice President Joe Biden’s position on federally mandated busing in the 1970s when “our schools are as segregated today as they were 50 years ago.” 9:35 p.m. New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker is likening former Vice President Joe Biden’s stance on immigration to that of President Donald Trump. Booker says Biden’s proposal to allow immigrants who attend American universities and earn doctorate degrees to remain in the country for seven years plays into the hands of Republicans. He is comparing it to Trump’s preference for immigrants from countries like Sweden and Norway over immigrants from African and Caribbean nations — which the president referred to as “shithole countries.” Booker says Biden “can’t have it both ways.” He is also telling Biden: “You invoke President Obama more than anybody in this campaign. You can’t do it when it’s convenient and then dodge it when it’s not.” 9:25 p.m. Former Vice President Joe Biden is again defending his lengthy legislative record on criminal justice reform, this time from criticism by New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker. Biden is responding on Wednesday night’s debate stage in Detroit to a critique that his current plan is “inadequate.” He is advocating for more rehabilitative alternatives to incarceration for drug crimes. Booker says Biden’s imprint has been on “every crime bill since the 1970s,” saying little real progress has been made. Biden says “nothing happened” in Newark under Booker’s leadership as mayor following reforms to drug laws. Booker says Biden is trying to shift the focus from himself with “tough-on-crime, phony rhetoric that got a lot of people elected but destroyed communities like mine.” 9:15 p.m. Washington Gov. Jay Inslee is the first candidate on Wednesday’s Democratic presidential debate stage to call President Donald Trump a racist. “We can no longer allow a white nationalist to be in the White House,” Inslee said as candidates debated immigration policy.

MUHAMMAD NAEEM | COLUMNIST

ummer holidays are coming to an end. Soon we’ll hear the collective sigh of relief from all the parents who are running out of ideas to keep their kids entertained. It would be nice to finally be free of the kids for most of the day and to let their teachers have all the fun instead. Kids have their teeth cleaned, their immunizations updated, their hair styled, and have new clothes, along with school supplies, that have taken their parents to the edge of bankruptcy. When it comes to students, there are only two kinds of students. Those that like to study, like to learn new things, and enjoy the whole experience of being in school. They do their homework on time and with diligence. They start their projects early and finish them well ahead of time. Above all, they have developed good study habits that will see them prosper in careers of their choice. Then there are kids like my kids. They are allergic to homework. They consider studying beneath them and spend as little time as possible learning anything new. They spend all of their time playing video games on their cell phones, tablets, computers, Xbox, Playstation, you name it, any kind of gizmo that the tech industry has been kind enough to shove down our throats, they have it, and they use it. Sometimes many of these devices simultaneously. When it comes to teachers, there are two kinds as well. Those that know how to teach, enjoy teaching even though they rarely have a student worthy of their skills, and they spend time with the students to help them understand different concepts. They have the patience to explain, as often as necessary, how to solve problems, and how to comprehend difficult subjects. Then some teachers mostly end up teaching my kids. Most of them are new graduates, with hardly a year or two of experience. They chose to teach not out of passion, but because they

couldn’t decide on anything else. Some end up teaching a subject different from their field of study, like a Biology graduate having to teach Physics. Their favorite tool is Google Chromebook with Google Docs and Google this and that. They think that the best way to teach students is to direct them to a with website a database of problems and let them figure things out for themselves. They expect students, those that don’t even know how to brush their teeth (yes, my kids), to work out complicated concepts like Pythagorean Theorem and Quadratic Equations on their own, using their minds, and using their intelligence, however little as it may be. Talk about being extremely optimistic! I have to give credit to my kids, though. They have figured out very quickly that, on these websites, each wrong answer is immediately followed by the correct solution and if they repeat their exercises long enough, questions start repeating, and they let the website answer its own questions. They score very high on their homework assignments, almost always an A, unless the teacher has specified that all they need is 80% to pass, then as soon as they hit 80%, they stop. When it comes to exams and quizzes, though, they fail miserably. Why? Because the questions don’t repeat so they have no way to “hack” the answers. The worst part about these computer-based studies is that the teacher never knows where exactly is a student struggling. The student is nothing more

than a mere statistic. Well, the students have nothing to worry about, though. Our schools don’t like to fail any students, because it cuts into the funding that they receive from the State. Schools have to show a high success rate and teachers have devised many ingenious ways of making sure that the students pass. For example, giving a 50% score even if the student does not answer the question in the exam, or making the final exam super easy and worth 500 points, so that each and every student scores very high on the final and everyone miraculously passes the class with flying colors. Another criterion that is used to determine the amount of funding for the school is attendance. A lot of students miss classes as a fashion statement. Our school district has come up with the idea of Saturday school, where students show up and all they have to do is to spend a few

THE RICH LOWRY COLUMN

Ilhan Omar Holds America in Contempt RICH LOWRY | COLUMNIST

eto O’Rourke, the losing Texas senator candidate who bootstrapped his way into becoming a losing presidential candidate, had a message for refugees who had come to America: Your new country is a hellhole. The former congressman told a roundtable of refugees and immigrants in Nashville, Tennessee: “This country was founded on white supremacy. And every single institution and structure that we have in this country still reflects the legacy of slavery and segregation and Jim Crow and suppression.” Just in case the newcomers were inclined to believe that they had escaped to the greatest country on Earth, an open, dynamic, generous society that, whatever their struggles now, will afford them opportunities unimaginable back home -- Beto was there to tell them of all

its sins. He had made himself into an instrument of woke assimilation. This is the backdrop of the controversy over Ilhan Omar, the Somali-born leftwing member of Congress whom Donald Trump urged, in particularly noxious tweets, to return to her native country and fix it before presuming to tell us what to do. It’s a mistake, though, to think that Omar is anything other than on her way to total assimilation, only on the terms set out by Beto O’Rourke. American has two assimilation problems. One is immigrants feeling only a tenuous connection to America, and getting isolated in ethnic enclaves. The other is immigrants like Omar -- and some of her second-generation colleagues -- assimilating into the America of identity politics and grievance. They have learned to speak not just English, but the language of oppression.

ing good decisions and being of assistance wherever I can.” A few years ago she was intimately involved when the county shut down the notoriously inadequate Crossroad Encampment in the hills south of Hemet. “People were living in horrible conditions where it was unsafe and unsavory. We provided wrap-around services to those living there. The entire camp was broken up, and my job was to help make sure they were receiving services, not being displaced with nowhere to go. We made sure they had new shelter and counseling.” She spent a lot of her time with the Supervisor’s constituents, visiting senior home parks and making sure they were receiving proper services from the county. “My thing, personally, is that I like to help; giving back to the community that has been so gen-

They understand our system (at least no less than the average officeholder), but hold it in low regard. They know our history, as taught by an instructor cribbing from Howard Zinn. They may be citizens, but they are certainly outraged victims. According to a profile in The Washington Post, Omar felt betrayal immediately upon getting to America. “I arrived at the age of 12 and learned that I was the extreme other,” she explained to The Post, noting bullying when she was in school in Arlington, Virginia, an affluent Washington, D.C. suburb. “I was black. I was Muslim. I also learned I was extremely poor and that the classless America that my father talked about didn’t exist.” Somehow, despite all the depredations, she gained a seat in Congress. Omar doesn’t represent a majority-minority district. She started her elected career, as The Post puts it, by getting

erous with my family and me. I come to realize that I was in a position to assist others and I didn’t want to lose that opportunity. It has always given me a sense of purpose., a sense of reward that monetary compensation does not; especially in such a large county system where people are all too often not sure where to go for help. Maybe they’re getting a run-around or not being given the right answers. That, then, becomes my job. “When I would have calls referred to or get them directly would say, ‘I don’t want you to call anyone else. Let me figure out where you need to go.’ I didn’t want them to have to wait or keep going back and forth. I wanted to do the leg work for them. Jeff would say, ‘Take care of their problem and I would.” That was not only her job, but she was anxious to take on the most difficult cases, “because I could.” As if she didn’t have enough on her palate, in 2017 she accepted an appointment to the

to know “older peace-andjustice hippies.” She attended Black Lives Matter protests, and established relationships with all the left-wing groups in Minneapolis. Omar’s default is to blame America first. She explained that local Somali-Americans attempted to join the Islamic State as a function of “systemic alienation.” She contends that she has met American veterans “who say the most horrendous things, who have complete disregard for life.” And she accuses her congressional colleagues of singling her out for demonization. Anyone who thinks these attitudes are alien to America has never been to a college campus or watched MSNBC. In short, whatever foolhardy things Trump may tweet, Ilhan Omar is not suited to return and fix Somalia, rather to join a segment of the American elite. Rich Lowry is editor of the National Review.

SAN JUAN, PUERTO RICO

Puerto Ricans anxious for new leader amid political crisis DÁNICA COTO | AP

he unprecedented resignation of Puerto Rico’s governor after days of massive island-wide protests has thrown the U.S. territory into a full-blown political crisis. Less than four days before Gov. Ricardo Rosselló steps down, no one knows who will take his place. Justice Secretary Wanda Vázquez, his constitutional successor, said Sunday that she didn’t want the job. The next in line would be Education Secretary Eligio Hernández, a largely unknown bureaucrat with little political experience. Rosselló’s party says it wants him to nominate a successor before he steps down, but Rosselló has said nothing about his plans, time is running out and some on the island are even talking about the need for more federal control over a territory whose finances are already overseen from Washington. Rosselló resigned following nearly two weeks of daily protests in which hundreds of thousands of Puerto Ricans took to the streets, mounted horses and jet skis, organized a twerkathon and came up with other creative ways to demand his ouster. On Monday, protesters were to gather once again, but this time to demand that Vázquez not assume the governorship. Under normal circumstances, Rosselló’s successor would be the territory’s secretary of state, but veteran politician Luis Rivera Marín resigned from that post on July 13 as part of the scandal that toppled the governor. Vázquez, a 59-year-old prosecutor who worked as a district attorney and was later director of the Office for Women’s Rights, does not have widespread support among Puerto Ricans. Many have criticized her for not being aggressive enough in investigating cases involving members of the party that she and Rosselló belong to, and of not prioritizing gender violence as justice secretary. She also has been accused of not pursuing the alleged mismanagement of supplies for victims of Hurricane Maria.

CANNABIS from B1

Take GW Pharmaceuticals (GWPH), a British company known for its multiple sclerosis treatment product Nabiximols, which was the first natural cannabis plant derivative to gain market approval in every country, even ours. Their latest drug treats pediatric seizures. Breakthroughs are happening in every facet. The key is to not jump into any company before you understand what you are buying their price movements. Concerns about the cost of cannabis and related products and where it is headed is a risk. The cost will most like-

Facing a new wave of protests, Vázquez tweeted Sunday that she had no desire to succeed Rosselló. “I have no interest in the governor’s office,” she wrote. “I hope the governor nominates a secretary of state before Aug. 2.” If a secretary of state is not nominated before Rosselló resigns, Vázquez would automatically become the new governor. She would then have the power to nominate a secretary of state, or she could also reject being governor, in which case the constitution states the treasury secretary would be next in line. However, Treasury Secretary Francisco Parés is 31 years old, and the constitution dictates a governor has to be at least 35. In that case, the governorship would go to Hernández, who replaced the former education secretary, Julia Keleher, who resigned in April and was arrested on July 10 on federal corruption charges. She has pleaded not guilty. But Hernández has not been clear on whether he would accept becoming governor. “At this time, this public servant is focused solely and exclusively on the work of the Department of Education,” he told Radio Isla 1320 AM on Monday. A spokesman for Hernandez did not return a message seeking comment. Meanwhile, Puerto Ricans are growing anxious about what the lack of leadership could mean for the island’s political and economic future. “It’s very important that the government have a certain degree of stability, said Luis Rodríguez, a 36-year-old accountant, adding that all political parties should be paying attention to what’s happening. “We’re tired of the various political parties that always climb to power and have let us down a bit and have taken the island to the point where it finds itself right now.” Héctor Luis Acevedo, a university professor and former secretary of state, said both the governor’s party and the main opposition party that he supports, the Popular Democratic Party, have weakened in recent years. He added that new leadership needs to be found ly be driven down and so may be margins as larger producers and market efficiencies occur. This will force consolidations in the industry and sharp barriers to entry too. What I have noticed is there is substantial volatility in pricing of these companies. By being patient, you can pick up what you wish to buy on the dip and you shouldn’t have to wait long to get the opportunity. Pot’s passé and Cannabis is open for business. Andrew F.

DEBATE from B2

cans have criticized Trump in recent weeks for using Twitter to say four Democratic women in Congress should “go back” to their countries of origin. All four are U.S. citizens, and three were born in the country. 9:10 p.m. Former Vice President Joe Biden and former Obama administration housing secretary Julián Castro are clashing over immigration policy. Castro has promised to make illegally crossing the U.S.-Mexico border punishable by a civil penalty and is repeating that call Wednesday. He says that doesn’t mean endorsing “open borders,” but says some in his party, including some on the debate stage, have “taken the bait” and fallen for a Republican talking point. Biden says he doesn’t support decriminalizing such border crossing. He also says he never heard Castro “talk about any of this while he was secretary.” Castro responds, “It looks like one of us has learned the lessons of the past and one of us hasn’t.” 9 p.m. Joe Biden is criticizing Medicare-forAll backers as he argues in the Democratic presidential debate for his “public option” proposal to expand the Affordable Care Act without ending job-based insurance. Biden is mocking California Sen. Kamala Harris and New York Mayor Bill de Blasio for downplaying the taxpayer costs of their proposals for single-payer government insurance. Biden says he doesn’t “know what kind of math you do in New York” or “in California” as he points to estimates that single-payer insurance could cost about $30 trillion over 10 years. Harris is responding by noting private insurers’ billions of dollars in profits. Single-payer supporters note that their approach would replace Americans’ premium and out-of-pocket costs for private insurance. Harris also insists her pitch would not require middle-class tax increases. 8:55 p.m. Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet is going after California Sen. Kamala Harris on health care, suggesting she hasn’t been up-front about planks of her Medicare for All plan. Bennet is charging that the plan would mean a tax increase for the middle class and outlaw private insurance, and tells Harris that “we need to be honest about what’s in this plan.” Harris released details of her health care plan earlier this week. It would allow private Medicare plans that follow certain federal guidelines, and it would include a tax on household income over $100,000.

hours playing games or doing nothing in particular. They just have to be present for the roll call and that

Harris is accusing Bennet of using “Republican talking points” and is defending her plan by insisting it doesn’t make anything illegal, but rather “separates the employer from health care.” 8:40 p.m. Former Vice President Joe Biden and California Sen. Kamala Harris are clashing over their dueling health care plans during the opening moments of the Democratic presidential debate in Detroit. The pair had a tense exchange during the opening debates last month in Miami — and wasted little time before going at it again Wednesday. Harris says her proposal would extend health insurance to all Americans, while Biden’s would “leave out” almost 10 million. Biden says her plan is too expensive and would cause many people to lose their current, employer-based health insurance. He says Harris isn’t being straight about that, adding, “You can’t beat President Trump with double-talk.” Harris says Biden is “simply inaccurate.” 8:30 p.m. President Donald Trump and some of the leading Democratic presidential candidates are the targets of opening statements at the second night of the Detroit debates. New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio is going after Joe Biden and Kamala Harris for not promising enough change to the country’s structure. Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet says Trump “frankly doesn’t give a damn about your kids or mine.” Harris is repeating her pledge to “prosecute the case” against Trump, while Biden is sticking to his promise to “restore the soul of this country” after four years of Trump. New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker was forced to pause for hecklers shouting “fire Pantaleo,” a reference to the New York City police officer officials opted not to charge in the death of Eric Garner.

www.HSJChronicle.com 8:05 p.m. Night two of Democrats’ second set of presidential primary debates is underway in Detroit, with Joe Biden flanked by Kamala Harris and Cory Booker. The lineup puts the white former vice president between two black senators who have sharply criticized Biden’s record on matters of race. Biden has promised he’ll counter more aggressively than he did in the June debate. Harris hammered Biden in that opening round for opposing federal busing orders issued in the 1970s to desegregate public schools like hers in California. Booker has blasted Biden for helping write a 1994 law blamed for accelerating mass incarceration. Biden could look to highlight Harris’ evolving positions on health care as she argues for a “Medicare for All” plan but insists she won’t raise middle-class taxes to pay for it. 7:55 p.m. Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard is again complaining about what she describes as lopsided allocation of time among candidates at the Democratic presidential debates. In a tweet apparently composed by her sister, Gabbard on Wednesday tweeted that, if the second debate night in Detroit “is as biased/unfair as last night,” then the Democratic National Committee “needs to reconsider CNN hosting future debates.” The tweet from Gabbard says questions were “very biased and lopsided in favor of certain candidates” and says the network “should not be picking winners and losers.” It’s the second time Gabbard has gone after a host network for alleged unfairness. Following the previous round of debates, Gabbard’s sister wrote from the congresswoman’s Twitter account that “it’s clear who MSNBC wants to be president: Elizabeth Warren.”

8:20 p.m. Joe Biden greeted Kamala Harris with a handshake and a smile Wednesday night while asking her to “Go easy on me, kid.” The California senator called Biden by his first name as she smiled in return. Harris is one of the former vice president’s top rivals and sharpest critics. Biden is a 76-year-old white man. Harris is a 54-year-old black woman. Their generational and racial differences were on display last month in the first debate, when Harris hammered Biden for his opposition to federal court-ordered busing in the 1970s as a way to desegregate public schools like Harris’s elementary school in California. Biden has promised to defend his record more forcefully in this debate.

5:10 p.m. Joe Biden knows the attacks will be coming. The question for the former vice president in Wednesday’s Democratic presidential debate will be whether he handles them in a way that restores confidence to his anxious supporters. Biden will be forced to defend his record as nine eager rivals fight to knock him from his front-runner perch in the increasingly combative primary. Biden’s advisers say he expects to face pointed questions about race in particular, having stumbled in the opening debate when confronted by California Sen. Kamala Harris over his record on school integration. The pair will be joined onstage by a second senator of color, Cory Booker of New Jersey, who in recent days seized on Biden’s decades-old support for criminal justice laws that disproportionately hurt minorities.

improves their attendance. Schools get proper funding and everyone lives happily ever after. I remember my professor used to say that schools have so much knowledge because freshmen bring

none with them and graduates take none away when they leave. I never really understood his point until I started working with my kids and saw for myself the state of disarray that our schools seem to be in.

HISTORIC HEMET THEATRE

Bringing the past to life at The Historic Hemet Theatre SUSAN CARRIER | CONTRIBUTED

t has been just six years since the Historic Hemet Theatre took its first halting steps back to life, hoping to revive its rich history of community enrichment and service. Since then, the nonprofit foundation operating the theatre has hosted over 56,000 patrons in more than 700 events and raised over a million dollars in sales and donations. In the year since the purchase of the building was completed, the lobby has been returned to its art deco theme of the 1930s, and the sound, lighting and projection systems have been upgraded to accommodate a wide variety of events. Yet, the surfaced has only been scratched in a project that will

take much more before Hemet’s vintage movie house can reclaim its heritage as the proud centerpiece of the downtown district. John Loomis of Thirtieth Street Architects, the man who designed the Hemet Public Library, has taken on the project, with a creative design plan for the building. Much of the project will entail updating of plumbing and electrical infrastructure, as well as bringing the facility up to modern air conditioning standards and building codes. Enlarged restrooms with handicap access is a top priority as is handicap seating in the auditorium. The exterior will include a recreation of the pointed neon marquee that majestically crowned the theatre in the 1950s Still, much of the theatre will

Gaming megastar leaves Twitch for Mixer JAKE SEINER | AP

ortnite superstar Tyler “Ninja” Blevins has left Twitch and is taking his video game live streams to Microsoft’s Mixer platform, a stunning switch that could have wide-ranging consequences for the rapidly growing industry. Blevins announced his move Thursday , ending a hugely profitable partnership with Twitch, a live streaming giant owned by Amazon. “I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunities Twitch has provided me,” Blevins told The Associated Press. “But as I looked at the next step in my career, I wanted to be somewhere that empowered me to push the boundaries of gaming and achieve bigger goals within the industry. Mixer provides me with more ways to connect with my community.” Blevins has earned millions broadcasting himself playing Fortnite and other video games on Twitch and YouTube. He has over 14 million followers on Twitch, and the platform has hosted many of his pioneering esports moments, including a Fortnite event in March 2018 featuring

rappers Drake and Travis Scott and football player JuJu Smith-Schuster that propelled the game into a fullblown cultural phenomenon. Blevins will host his first Mixer live stream Friday from Lollapalooza, a four-day music festival in Chicago. The 28-year-old has publicly invited Kyle “Bugha” Giersdorf — the 16-year-old who earned $3 million Sunday for winning the inaugural Fortnite World Cup — to join him. Blevins said he will not ac-

tively recruit other gamers to leave their current platform, but if more streamers follow him to Mixer, it could become a legitimate competitor in a market dominated by Twitch. “I want my friends to make their own decisions for what platforms they choose to play on,” Blevins said. “With that being said, I will welcome anyone with open arms who wants to join me.” In a statement to the AP, Twitch said, “We’ve loved watching Ninja on Twitch over the years and are proud of all that he’s accomplished for himself and his family, and the gaming community. We wish him the best of luck in his future endeavors.” Mixer launched in 2016 but hasn’t nearly matched Twitch’s popularity — Microsoft reported 10 million monthly users last year, compared to well over 100 million for Twitch, which launched in 2011. Mixer has been praised for its interface and its management of toxic players, though, and Blevins said he expects to connect to fans with “more interactivity and variety than before”

THE HEMET CAR GUY

How to Repair Car Paint Chips RICHARD PERRY| CONTRIBUTED

Greetings from the Hemet Car Guy, Many vehicles with some age on them have the very common paint chips on the hood. People have asked me, what is the best way to fix paint chips on their own? I recommend Touch up kits. Duplicolor has simple touch up kits that you can buy at your local auto parts store. You can also buy more involved touch-up kits and supplies online. You can buy a kit from Paint Scratch; it comes with a primer, color VIN matched paint, clear, paint thinner and a bottle of rubbing compound. These kits are more expensive and have more steps, but are they worth the extra money and time? And of course you will need some skill at this...so here are the steps: CHECK THE DOOR To ensure getting the correct shade of paint, the paint code for your vehicle needs to be identified. On most modern cars since 1983, this information may be found on a sticker on your door or elsewhere. To be absolutely sure of a match, the paint vendor may also need your VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) that is also on your door sticker and your VIN plate on your dash. PREPARATION Preparation is the key to getting good results. You’ll need very fine 1000-grit, 3M Wet-or-Dry sandpaper, various craft sticks, cotton swabs, splinter tweezers, glue dots, various paper punches. MAKING YOUR SANDERS You want to keep sanding outside the boundary of the chip to a minimum. Use the punches to cutout small sandpaper circles and glue them to the craft sticks and dowels. I found a $1.99 bag of wooden axles that had

a nice rounded end that fit larger chips. WASH YOUR CAR First, wash the car clean of dirt with warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly and dry remove the build-up. Next remove any wax, grease and silicone that will prevent the paint from adhering. Acryli-Clean by Ditzler is available at professional body shop stores. FILL SMALL CHIPS For very small chips, the Duplicolor paint pen was the best choice. The small tip allowed easy filling of the divot. I found it best to fill slightly proud of the surface to allow for shrinkage during drying. Any slight excess can be wet sanded down and then rubbed out. Most stone chips are probably on your hood leading edge. To prevent runs, you’ll find lifting the hood, until the chip is horizontal to the ground, will keep the paint centered while drying. MEDIUM CHIPS For medium size chips, the brush applicator was needed. I first cleaned out loose debris and paint with the sharp tip tweezers. Applying the primer, I applied the primer with the applicator brush as directed. It’s important to read and follow the instructions. Your results may vary depending on your level of skill, materials used, color and type of paint. APPLY THE PAINT After the primer cured, I applied the paint. The result wasn’t too bad from about 6 feet away. Wet sanding, application of the clear, wet sanding again, then rubbing out, improved the result to about 3 feet depending on your eyesight and amount of sunlight. You’ll have to decide how much work you want to invest vs. the ever-diminishing results. LARGE CHIPS After the primer cured, I applied the paint.

The result wasn’t too bad from about 6 feet away. Wet sanding, application of the clear, wet sanding again, then rubbing out improved the result to about 3 feet depending on your eyesight and amount of sunlight. You’ll have to decide how much work you want to invest vs. the ever-diminishing results. On larger chips and those that have a rust colony growing, use the splinter tweezers or a fine dental pick to flake off any loose paint. You must be very careful because you can easily turn a small chip into a large one. If you don’t remove the loose paint, the paint will eventually flake off on its own and spoil the repair. REMOVE THE RUST Use CLR or equivalent to dissolve and remove rust. Repeat application until the swab comes up clean. Rinse with Isopropyl Alcohol. If you don’t remove all the rust, the paint won’t properly adhere and the rust will spread under the paint. Our painter told me about Ultra One’s Safest Rust Remover. SAND THE EDGES Carefully sand the edges until “feathered.” You don’t want sharp edges, which will make the repair look more obvious. The curved shape of the wood axle gives a slight depression tapering up to the paint surface. You’ll want to do this “dry” because water will restart the rust process. The wet or dry sandpaper will clog quickly when used dry, but the adhesive dots will make changing sanding circles easy. APPLY LEVERAGE Using the edge of the flat wood sand stick will apply more leverage, but don’t sand too far outward or you’ll sand through the clear coat and make the spot more noticeable. APPLY THE PRIMER Carefully apply the primer from the center outward. You don’t want to go beyond the edge. If you do, use a cotton swab moistened

LET THE PRIMER DRY Let the primer dry to full cure. Depending on temperature, this may take a while. Patience is the key to good results. Budget enough time to let the primer solvent evaporate before covering it with paint. WET SAND Once the primer has dried, you can wet sand it to prepare the primer base for paint. Once again, don’t sand too far from the center or you will sand through the surrounding paint’s clear coat. Sanding through the clear is especially bad if your car is dark-colored or has metallic paint. I used a stronger, water-resistant adhesive for my wet sanding sticks. It’s non-removable, but you won’t need to change sandpaper as often when wet-sanding. I pre-made three sticks with sandpaper circles on each end for a total of 6 wet sanders. STEADY HAND Painting a chip this large with a brush isn’t ever going to give you a factory finish. Steady hands and a sparing amount of paint on the brush worked best. I made the mistake of painting too soon after a second coat of primer. The solvent in the paint began to dissolve the primer and thin swirls of gray mixed into the white. Let dry. ADD CLEAR COAT Repeat wet sanding until smooth. Next, I brushed on some of the supplied clear coat. Like the paint, it is lacquer based, thin and quick drying. In this picture, you can see

with lacquer thinner to quickly wipe up the excess. Keep all the supplies close at hand on a small table. You don’t want to have to go searching and fumbling after a mistake. The paint doesn’t stay liquid for long.

How to Nail the Farmhouse Style in Your Interior Decorating STATEPOINT| CONTRIBUTED more.”

armhouse style is cozy, rustic, charming and eclectic. While creating the vibe in your own home is easy, according to home decorating experts, it requires some attention to detail. Designer, Instagram personality, blogger and business owner Liz Marie Galvan, who recently renovated her 1840s farmhouse, is sharing a few key elements to consider:

NATURAL WOOD ELEMENTS Searching for the perfect table, picture frame, or bookshelf? When in doubt, use natural wood. “Natural wood really evokes that old-time feel. In our home we have wood flooring in every room, but you can also bring in natural wood kitchen cabinets, dressers, trim and so much

REAL ESTATE

Friday |August, 02 - 08 | 2019

To be eco-conscious while nailing the weathered look, consider sourcing locally reclaimed lumber, where possible. You can continue the wood motif by adding shiplap accent walls or even shiplap ceilings to certain rooms. REPLACEMENT WINDOWS “Most people don’t think a lot about windows -- window treatments, yes, but windows...not so much,” points out Galvan. “But windows themselves can be a game-changer. One of the key parts of our renovation was all-new windows with a historically accurate grille pattern, which totally changed the look and feel of the house.” This upgrade not only complemented the historical period of the home’s structure to define the look, it also eliminated the draft she was

experiencing from the old windows that came with the home -- a good reminder that old-school charm does not need to be accompanied by old-school discomfort. While Galvan did hers in white with colonial grilles, other colors, such as black, would also go great in a farmhouse-style home. Keep in mind, there are many elements to consider, and you’ll want the flexibility to customize. This is why Galvan turned to Renewal by Andersen, the full-service custom replacement window division of Andersen. Offering a start-to-finish process, one can select among 49 color combinations, numerous hardware choices and a wide variety of grille patterns and frames -- including a custom-designed option.

The trick is to know when to quit. BUILD UP LAYERS I’m a perfectionist, not a quitter. After a sanity break, I sanded the spot back down to primer with a 360 grit, Wet-or-Dry.

was trimmed to the radius of the stick. After repainting and drying, I wet sanded with 1000 grit. Then I clear coated and wet sanded again. This tedious process slowly built up the new layers of paint to the original surface. USE RUBBING COMPOUND Once the repair is flush to the rest of the paint, take the rubbing compound and polish the area with a clean, cotton cloth. Wash the area to clean off all the rubbing compound, rinse and dry. I would let the repair continue much as possible. Galvan used rustic farmhouse fabrics like grainsack, tobacco baskets, chicken nesters, farmhouse signs, barn wood and more.

The color didn’t match as well as the other VIN matched paint but it was a bargain at around $10. The $90 kit from Paint Scratch was better for larger chips but required a tremendous amount of sweat equity, extra materials, and the learning curve was steep. If you have more money and not the time, it may be better just to have your hood repainted at a paint shop.

BEVERLY HILLS, CA.

Golden Globes group gives $3.8 million in grants JONATHAN LANDRUM JR. | AP

rnold Schwarzenegger said he has a hard time saying anything positive about President Donald Trump when he hosted the Hollywood Foreign Press Association’s annual grants dinner on Wednesday night. The former California governor remembered when he was asked a couple questions about Trump during an interview before being offered to host the star-studded ceremony. He recalled during his opening speech that he had “nothing nice to say about the guy.” The event was held at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel, where more than a dozen film and TV stars helped the group that put on the Golden Globes announce proceeds to 74 film schools and arts organizations. Schwarzenegger said the HFPA’s efforts are important to him and has a special connection with the group because “I am actually foreign.” His remarks come after Trump tweeted that four Democratic congresswomen of color “go back” to countries from “which they came from.” “And I have chosen not to ‘go back to my country’, but stay here, live here and make a difference here,” Schwarzenegger added. “And to me, that is what makes America great.” Renée Zellweger, Taron Egerton, Kerry Washington, Ali Wong, Eva Longoria, James Corden, Sacha Baron Cohen, Justin Hartley and others were among the entertainers who appeared to discuss the charities that benefit from HFPA grants. The celebrity presenters handed out $3.8 million in grants during the hourlong ceremony. Each presenter only spent a few minutes onstage. Regina Hall and Rob Lowe were one of the few presenters who went off script, as both playfully flirted with each other onstage while they announced the grant for The Film Collaborative. The grant would support educational tools and resources for independent filmmakers. “I remember being a young girl, lying in my bed, praying to God that Rob Lowe would be on top of me,” Hall said, prompting the audience to burst into

laughter. “Prayers are answered, which is why we are here tonight.” When Lowe spoke, Hall stepped behind him with a grin. He glanced over his left shoulder at Hall as the audience continued to chuckle. “I’ve been Me Too’d,” Lowe said. “And I like it.” Washington announced a grant to Pen in the Community, which offers journalists workshops to improve news literacy. It’ll also highlight the importance of press freedoms in underserved schools in the Los Angeles area. “In today’s very fraught political climate, it is more important than ever that we have the balance of objectivity and in-depth content of independent journalism to rely on,” the actress said. “Rocketman” star Taron Edgerton, who stood alongside co-star Jamie Bell, presented a gift to several organizations including The Latin America Cinemateca of Los Angeles. Bell spoke about the HFPA’s efforts to humanitarian relief. Director Taika Waititi highlighted the HFPA’s efforts to help women who want to work behind the camera. He said the group is supporting several initiatives including Women in Film, Women Make Moves and Directing Workshop for Women. Julia Butters, who starred in “Once Upon A Time in Hollywood,” introduced “Booksmart” star Beanie Feldstein and actor Ben Platt, who sang a duet. After the performance, Zellweger spoke about her belief in education and higher learning. She announced grants to several schools including UCLA, Los Angeles City College, CalArts, Santa Monica College and Cal State (Fullerton, Dominguez Hills, Long Beach and Northridge). Corden announced a grant to Get Lit, which helps get equipment, production, classroom supplies and stipend for Literary Riot for the first content production studio created and run by filmmakers between the ages of 13 to 23. He also jokingly made a promise about the “disappointing” dessert being served at dinner. “I will pledge right here, right now. And I’m serious. I will fund the dessert for next year,” said Corden, whose statement drew applause.

because of Mixer’s technological abilities — for example, streamers can share their controller with fans, and the chat function has a greater array of features. Blevins also anticipates the deal with Mixer will free him up to do more live events and other non-streaming content. “I love what I do and will still be actively streaming and continuing to interact with my fans,” he said. “With Mixer, I get to further engage with the tools on the platform, which I am excited about.” Within 40 minutes of the announcement, Mixer was the top trending topic on Twitter in the United States, and Ninja’s Mixer page had over 28,000 subscribers. Blevins first emerged in the streaming community eight years ago while playing Halo. After some competitive success with battle royale games H1Z1 and PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, he broke into the mainstream as the face of Fortnite last year. He’s the most followed gamer on Twitch, although his popularity has slowed. He ranked fourth in hours watched on the platform in June, about 6 million hours behind Turner “Tfue” Tenney, according to StreamElements. Blevins routinely broadcasts with other pro gamers, including friends Ben “DrLupo” Lupo, Jack “CouRage” Dunlop and

He’s been criticized for not inviting more female players into his streams, and that intensified when he told Polygon last year that his concern was “if there’s a hint of flirting, that is going to be taken and going to be put on every single video and be clickbait forever.” Blevins married in 2017. Blevins said that at Mixer, “I will do my part to ensure I am helping to create a fun and welcoming community,” and that includes playing with female gamers. “I will play with any gamer who loves gaming as much as I do,” he said. Blevins has famously had his wife, Jessica, manage his business during his gaming career, but he’s

expanded the operation by adding Loaded management group and law firm Loeb & Loeb. That team is banking that Blevins’ immense fan base will follow him to a new platform. Mixer streams online and also via Microsoft’s Xbox consoles, and Fortnite is popular on the Xbox, which should help. Loaded CEO Brandon Freytag believes Blevins’ clout will bring fans to Mixer, calling him “the Michael Jordan of gaming.” “We are working toward Tyler being synonymous in every household, so if you know gaming, you know Tyler,” Freytag said. The move to Mixer is one of a few changes for Blevins this year. He’s also attempting to branch beyond the digital space, starting by authoring three books that will be published later this year, including a how-to on streaming video games and a graphic novel. “It is the ability to achieve bigger goals in gaming and further expand my own personal brand within the industry,” Blevins said.

STRAIT ON

Growing up Hilllbillly - Chapter X A Right of Passage

RUSTY STRAIT | COLUMNIST

t one point my entire family lived up Magazine Holler. Eventually, the name was changed to Gardner Street and then to Garrison Avenue, but it was still Magazine Holler to folks who lived there. A holler is two hills, usually divided by a creek. Sometimes the roads, which run parallel to the stream, are paved. Sometimes they are not. Sometimes the hollers are broad, or they might be narrow. Magazine Holler was very narrow with some houses built along the creek, others up against the sides of the hills. Every year when spring rains came, the creek became a river and some houses would be washed away. Others came roaring down from the hillside, victims of mudslides. Folks either rebuilt or moved. Year after year it happened. That’s just the way it was. On hot summer days, holler boys could be found somewhere around the mouth of the creek where it joined Elk River. A few feet from there old men fished for carp off the cement wall where the sewer emptied into the river. Tall poplar and sycamore trees lined the riverbank. Used automobile tires hung on ropes from high limbs. Young boys took turns, seated in the tires, swinging out over the river where they either dived or simply dropped into the water. All, except Bill and me. Neither of us could swim. My cohorts pled, coaxed and almost slung me out into the river, but I wouldn’t budge. Mama couldn’t swim. She never went near the water. If she ever caught me near Elk River I knew I’d get my ass blistered. Swimming across Elk River became a right of passage. Summer after summer, I watched as kids younger than me stroked their way across Elk River with little or no effort. It seemed so easy. I hated myself for being such a coward. Finally, in mid-June of

1938, I remember the date, because I had turned fourteen the month before, I decided that me and the river were going to the mat. I would either swim or they’d be dragging the river to find me. Like most teenage boys, I had to be practically dragged out of bed in the morning during summer vacations. We did so much running all day long we simply died at night. Anybody who wonders why teenagers need so much sleep ought to follow them around when they are up and out of the house. Grandma was kind of shocked when I actually got up one Saturday morning in time to join the family for breakfast. “Well, praise the Lord, look who decided to bless us ordinary people with his presence.” “Aww, grandma,” I said. Blanch gave me the old evil eye. She could read me like a book. I could never fool her about anything. But she didn’t say a word in front of grandma. “Are you and Bill goin’ off somewhere today? If you are, you better wear some shoes and I want you home before dark.” Grandma always worried about two things when I took off with Bill. “Put on some shoes and be home before dark.” “I ain’t goin’ nowhere with Bill. I just feel like gettin’ out and, I don’t know. Doin’ somethin’ by myself.” I could tell that Blanch wasn’t buying one word. I downed a big bowl of oatmeal, some toast and a glass of milk and was out of the door. Blanch called after me. “Raymond, what are you up to? No good, I bet.” I took off as fast as my feet could carry me, and never looked back. I had something to do all right. I intended to become a man that day, or die tryin’. Lately, I’d been going alone to the Y.M.C.A. where I learned the basics of swimming and could swim from one end of the pool to the other and back, but that ain’t like crossing no river. I never told anybody about my secret

lessons at the Y. ‘Specially not Bill. He had a big mouth. We lived about a mile away from Elk River. A mile wasn’t nothin’. I walked farther than that to school. Compared to the mighty Kanawha River, it wasn’t more’n a creek. The Elk emptied into the Kanawha which separated the north and south sides of Charleston. I never knew anybody who wanted to challenge the Great Kanawha. Folks used to say that if a boy disappeared he probably tried to swim the Kanawha and got sucked under in the middle. I didn’t really believe that, but then you never know. I made it to the river about eight-thirty. There wasn’t a cloud in the sky. The sun had started to climb. It promised to be a hot day. I sat down on the river bank, took off my shoes and placed them on a rock. Then my socks, stuffing each one into it’s rightful shoe, my shirt and finally my jeans. I wasn’t worried about anybody seeing me. Stuff like that didn’t bother us. Half the guys went into the river naked. I’d never do that. There were a lot of garfish in Elk River and I was afraid one of them might bite off my weenie. I’d heard stories. People laughed, but I wasn’t taking any chances. Down to my underwear, I stepped into the water. I

had to do this, and I had to do it by myself. If I drowned, people would feel sorry for me and cry for “that poor boy.” That’s what they said when a kid died from any kind of accident. “That poor boy.” The river bottom dropped off about ten or fifteen feet out where the creek emptied into the river, so I cautiously waded until the water came up to my chest and my body seemed to lift up and glide forward. The Elk might be a tributary to the widewide Kanawha, but the opposite side looked like ten miles away to me. Stroking and kicking slowly, I continued to move out into the stream. The river seemed not to move. My direction was straight across to the sandbar on the other side. The warm water embraced my body and lulled me into a false sense of security. Without any warning, the water started getting cold and then colder. Something was wrong. How could it be warm in one spot and cold in another? This wasn’t the small pool at the Y. My hands were trembling. Why was the water so cold and why was I beginning to drift downriver? Would I end up in the dreaded Kanawha? Was I gonna drown just like they said? Would Mama cry and tell everybody what a good boy I had been? Would lots of people come to my

funeral? I closed my eyes and began to swim harder. By the time I reached the middle of the river, the water became almost icy. Nobody ever told me that the current in the center of the river was stronger, colder and swifter. No matter the current and the chill, I had come closer to the other side. I couldn’t go back and I was drifting down river awful fast. I just kept stroking harder with my eyes closed and pretty soon the water wasn’t as cold. In the warm shallows of the other side when my feet touched bottom, I crawled up onto the bank and lay there for a long time, trying to get my breath. I began to laugh and cry at the same time. To a very startled bird, I yelled out, “I did it. I did it.” The bird lifted off the rock in a swoop and disappeared. Great. Then a dark cloud formed in my mind. How would I get back? I didn’t think I could do that again. I should have drowned, and they would be saying “poor little boy.” A commanding voice somewhere inside my head intervened. “You better get your sorry butt back across this river because if you don’t your mother is going to beat the tar out of you.” I piddled along the east side of the river for more than an hour before I got up enough courage to

tackle a return trip. I had to swim back. My clothes were on the other side. I sure as hell couldn’t go up on the highway in my skivvies. I could see a disaster coming until I got an idea. Since I’d ended up a good half-block downstream from where I started, what if I moved upstream? That way, maybe I’d come closer to where I started out. Smart decision. By hiking upstream, I didn’t have to swim so hard and the current helped me along so that when I reached the other side I wasn’t so tired. King Kong. That’s who I was. King of the river anyway. I couldn’t wait to surprise Bill with my great accomplishment. The very next day, I showed up early at his house. “C’ mon, I wanna show you somethin’.” “I ain’t had nothin’ to eat yet. So hold your britches.” “That can wait. This is important.” “Ain’t nothin’ more important than eatin’ and I ain’t had no breakfast.” My aunt gave me a suspicious look, but only asked, “You want something to eat, Raymond?” “No, ma’am. I already ate.” I wanted to get down to the River and show off to Bill. Bill wouldn’t budge until he’d eaten enough for two boys his size.

Why an iguana can be your new best friend Iguanas are underrated animals, but they are pretty awesome! DIANA JIMENEZ | STAFF

ome years ago having an exotic animal as a pet became a trend. And because of their calm personality, iguanas are one of the preferred options. Iguanas are reptiles, and they’re family of the crocodiles, and like with them, you should be careful. Iguanas have a temper, and they can quickly get mad. But don’t worry, once you earn its trust, you will have a best friend for life and let’s face it, iguanas are super cool, they’re like little dinosaurs that you can pet. So if you’re thinking about getting an iguana for you, there are some things you should know first. 1. Iguanas grow a lot. An adult iguana can exceed 6ft and weight from 15 to 20 pounds! So if you’re getting one, be sure to have the space needed for it. At first, you must leave it in a terrarium so that it can adapt to you and its surroundings, and the terrarium must be big enough so your iguana can turn around and explore. 2. They live for many years. Iguanas can live up to 20 years or more. This fact is very important because you will have to take care of it all these years, having any pet is a full commitment because they’re living beings that need love and care for all of their lives. 3. ‘We don’t eat meat, thanks’ A lot of people think iguanas eat insects, but they don’t. These reptiles only eat plants, vegetables, and fruits. For their full care, you should buy vitamins and calcium; you can buy these in almost every pet shop. 4. They like it shiny and hot. Like most reptiles, iguanas love the sun and heat. And they must live in a warm area,

their terrarium should be at least 77 ° F, and it should always have lighting. There are different types of lights you can use, but you should talk to a specialist before you get one. 5. They need space and time to trust you. Even if it doesn’t look like, iguanas are social animals with their kind of course. But that’s exactly why you will need to gain their trust. Iguanas take approximately a year to start trusting you, but for this, you will need to make a routine so they can start seeing you every day. And remember, iguanas are not like dogs or cats; they are not cuddlers, so give them space. 6. They can recognize you. Some people don’t realize, but iguanas have excellent eyesight and hearing. They might not be as friendly as a dog, and may not come when you call them, but they can discern different voices and identify their owners. And as you can see, iguanas are sophisticated and complex animals, they need different cares as dogs, cats or any other pet, but if you’re willing to make that commitment, you will earn a best friend for many years. Iguanas are loyal and sometimes funny, you will never get bored with an iguana, and one of the best qualities they have, they won’t pee or poo over you. Iguanas are great companions, don’t bite (but if they get mad they will hit you with their tail), the food an iguana eat is cheap because you can give them things you already buy for yourself, and they’re super chill. If you don’t have the space to have an iguana, there are other options for you. For example, you can get a small gecko or a lizard. However, if an iguana is a pet you want, you must be prepared to give them what they need. Animals are not toys, and they’re not temporary, remember if you’re getting a pet is for their lifetime.

Tips to take great pet pics STATEPOINT | CONTRIBUTED

hether you’re hoping to make your dog an Instagram sensation or you just want a nice portrait for the mantle, you’ve likely discovered pets, in general, can be elusive around cameras. Check out these tips and tricks for getting your fur baby to sit for the camera and look picture perfect, from e-tailer Zulily, creative photographer, Taylor Graham: • After choosing a great location for your shoot, give your pet a few minutes to get comfortable with the new setting. • If you’re shooting outside, situate your pet in a shaded area. Direct sunlight can make your pet look greasy, and distracting shadows can obscure important features. A flat, overcast day makes for the most flattering pet photos. • Get low to your pet’s level and frame the face tightly, focusing on eyes for maximum impact. Remember to photograph the most endearing parts of your pet. Often overlooked, paws and ears can be some of the most expressive and adorable features of your furry friend. • Treats and squeaky toys are a given for getting pets to focus, but make sure you’re using them to your advantage. Hold the toy or treat as close to the lens as possible. This will get your pet’s gaze right where you want it to be. For capturing selfies, try the Sniff & Snap, a debut phone accessory which snaps onto the back of any mobile phone and features a slobber- and dishwasher-safe compartment for your pet’s favorite treat -making it easier to attract a dog, cat or any pet’s attention through the power of smell long enough for totally Insta-worthy portraits. Available for only $7.99 on Zulily, the online retailer also invites pet parents to tag @zulily and share their #smelfie. • Most cameras and camera phones have a “burst mode” that takes many pictures in a row. Later you can select the perfect frame. • Don’t just pose your dog against a white wall. Add flair with accessories that fit your

pet’s personality. For unique pet products at great prices, shop apps like Zulily. To celebrate the “dog days of summer” in August, the app launches two-month long sales (breaking from its traditional 72-hour sales) for pet parents that will help you capture lasting memories of your pooch. In addition to the Sniff & Snap phone accessory, are exclusive sets of day-in-the-life dog accessories curated in five distinct dog personality types, including: the Hiking Hound, the Pampered Pup, the Glamour Pooch, the Hipster Hound and the Dapper Dog. For only $29.99, these exclusive sets represent some of the best deals in retail, and include a special treat (from Bark Brew to Dog Champagne), stylish accessories (from bandanas to bowties), feeding musthaves (like zippered travel or millennial pink bowls), engaging toys (pineapples, avocados, hiking boots) and pampering products (from sunscreen to hydrating butter to cologne). • With easy-to-use smartphone apps like VSCO and Photoshop: Express, you can adjust brightness, color and sharpness to bring a professional quality to images in seconds.

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood Quentin Tarantino’s 9th film is here DIANA JIMENEZ | STAFF

uentin Tarantino is well known for his intriguing way of attracting the attention of the spectators. He has an energetic and focused style in all of his movies; if you ever think in the best cult movies, you will probably think in one of two of him. Tarantino started his independent filmmaker career with Reservoir Dogs, and even if he wasn’t very known back then, he made a great way along. Now he is one of the most beloved directors in Hollywood, and there’s no doubt why critics acclaim all of his movies. For the last few years, the Oscar-winning filmmaker has said that he has plans to take back from directing movies once he releases his 10th film. This new movie

HILLBILLY from B1

When he finally shoved his chair back from the table, I said, “Come on. Let’s go.” “What’s your hurry?” “I told you. I want to show you somethin’.” “Ain’t nothin’ you can show me that’s gonna make me move any faster than I feel like.” “Might as well talk to a brick wall,” I said. “If ’n it was the other way around you be pushin’ me to hurry

called “Once upon a time in Hollywood” is his 9th, and according to The Hollywood Reporter, this movie is “Critics highly praise Tarantino’s love letter to ‘60s L.A.” and the movie all over the world. In this film, Tarantino shows us why he fell in love with the cinema as a kid. It’s stunning, and the cast is impeccable. With top-rated performances as Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, Margot Robbie, and many others, this comedy-drama film sets in Hollywood 1969, where Rick Dalton and his stunt double and best friend Cliff Booth (DiCaprio and Pitt), make their way around the final years of Hollywood’s Golden Age. Margot Robbie plays Sharon Tate a rising star among in Hollywood. Let’s remember that 1969 was the year when the Manson Family committed

their murders, and in the movie, we can take a look at Charles’ and his cult. Though the movie is not focused on these murderers, they play an important role in the film. Once upon a time in Hollywood is perfectly enjoyable, and it has Tarantino’s distinctive clever and a little dark humor. Glamorous, marvelous, and exquisite is how critics have described this Tarantino’s 9th film. Quentin has a unique talent to choose wisely the actors that’ll play on his

movies, and that is why this movie is excellent in any way you see it. It may not be Tarantino’s best movie, but it will surely become one of them. Tarantino is the best example that it doesn’t matter where you come from; you can make your way to the top. Even if some fans are not happy with Tarantino’s choice of retiring after his 10th movie, we all want to see what he can do next, because every film he makes is a masterpiece of its own.

up. Why are you so stubborn?” He didn’t move. When he was finally ready, he said, “Okay, let’s go see your secret.” I wanted to do it in front of him. At the river, we took off our clothes. “So show me your big surprise.” “Follow me.” I started to wade along the edge. Bill fell in behind me. I stopped wading and started swimming. Bill followed, not conscious of what he was doing. Then I said something stupid.

I opened my big mouth and yelled, “Look at you. You’re swimming.” He panicked and went straight to the bottom. Without thinking, I went down after him. I’d never done anything like that. For Christ’s sake, I could barely swim myself, but be it a miracle or whatever, I found him in the murky water and literally walked on the bottom back to the river bank, pulling bill along beside me. I saved his life, but I didn’t feel like no hero. I could just as well have

caused him to drown. I was so scared I shook like leaves on a tree in a windstorm. We were even. I saved him from drowning, and he rescued me from disaster in the darkest place on earth. Bill went on to be a much better swimmer than I ever would be, having enlisted in the U. S. Navy, where a sailor became an expert swimmer in boot camp. He spent most of World War II aboard the aircraft carrier Enterprise in the South Pacific.

STRAIT ON

The boys in the band RUSTY STRAIT | COLUMNIST

hey call themselves Three Minutes of Playtime, shortened to 3MOP. Unlike many of today’s musical groups their title has a genesis. That’s refreshing. However, they are refreshing in so many other ways. Let’s begin from the beginning. Esai Rodriguez is 17 and is heard on guitar, drums and back-up vocals. Esia is probably the self-proclaimed leader and no one doubts that because stands out with humor and originality as the speaker for the group. Esia is a San Jacinto original and graduated from Tahquitz High where he multi-tasked in the school’s jazz, symphonic and marching bands. Ethan Case is 18, a Hemet native, beats it out on base. He attended Tahquitz with Esai where he played lead trombone with the jazz band. With music in his heart and soul, he welcomed the opportunely to be part of the beat and be part of the MOPS. Patrick Payne, aged 22, the old man of the group is lead vocalist. Born and raised in Hemet he graduated several years ahead of the others was bit part of any school band but had previously been with an earlier band and when MOPS needed a singer he came on board and as he said, “here I am now,” and is he here - in ever since of the word. I’ve listened to a lot of young rock bands in my day but his voice is more than rock. He has what we used to call a “black voice,” which means that he leans to-

THE BOYS: Practicing their next concert | Photo by Rusty Strait ward a blues and jazz style. As some may have called it in the old days, gut-bucket raw blues quality. Carson Ramos, at 15 the baby in the band was born in Westchester and moved to San Jacinto where he is a student. “I’ve played jazz guitar in the jazz band and clarinet in the symphonic band. Last, but far from least, Giovanni Jouregui, 16, stands out on both drums and guitar. Also born in Westminister at the same hospital has Carson although they moved here at separate times and

were not acquainted until his family moved to the San Jacinto Valley, also a TAHQUITZ student. “Carson and I alternate on drums. And we are close friends as all of us are. We’re a tight-knit group.” They all have loose senses of humor and seem to play off each other in a goofy way as brothers might, but when it comes to their music these guys are dead serious. Instead of the name they have chosen for their band they might easily be named “2 MAJORS and 3 MINORS.” What do they call their style?

They’re in agreement on that. “Alternative, Indy Jazz Rock. We’re inspired from an alternative rock sound but we are heavily influenced and inspired by jazz.” Elia explains, “The chords are jazz, the sound rock and the alternative is kind of indy-produced sound.” Carson adds, “We blend different kinds of music together.” I observed that they clearly put forth a sort of melodious, soft jazzy rock and it comes out with a sound I’ve never quite heard before.

Their rock is not harsh, except in a couple of vocals, but they are working on that. You would be surprised at who their primary influences are: Duke Ellington, Pat Matheny, Count Basie Maynard Ferguson and believe it or not, husky-voiced singer and trombonist from the 1930’s Jack Teagarden. Trust me, this group is not age restrictive and for me, most importantly, I understood every word of their lyrics. How many times have your ears been unable to pick out the lyrics of a shout it out rock

singer? Huh? Oh yes they made it clear they’re open for engagements and low and behold I just received a press lease about an hour ago. They will be playing their first professional gig at The Derby Bar and Grill at 2860 West Florida Avenue in Hemet on Friday, August 2nd at 7:30 PM which, Lo and Behold is our date of publication. If you love rock, you will like 3MOP and if you’ve avoided it, maybe this might be your initiation. Just sayin’. rustystrait@gmail.com

Murió niña migrante:

La madre inicia demanda millonaria en contra de la empresa penitenciaria privada CoreCivic NOMAAN MERCHANT | AP

HOUSTON - Una mujer cuya hija de 1 año murió semanas después de ser liberadas de un centro de detención de inmigrantes en Texas presentó una demanda el miércoles contra la compañía privada de prisiones que opera la instalación. Los abogados de Yazmin Juárez están exigiendo $ 40 millones a CoreCivic en la denuncia presentada en un tribunal federal en San Antonio. Es el tercer reclamo legal que presentan relacionado con la muerte de la hija de Yazmin, Mariee, en mayo del año pasado. Las muertes de niños detenidos por agentes fronterizos han llamado la atención nacional al igual que las condiciones en las instalaciones fronterizas, donde en algunos casos decenas de niños se han mantenido juntos a la vez. Yazmin Juárez testificó el 10 de julio ante un panel de la Cámara de Representantes de Estados Unidos mientras se mostraban fotos de Mariee en las pantallas de televisión. Algunos legisladores se

enjugaron las lágrimas mientras hablaba. CoreCivic opera el centro de detención familiar de Inmigración y Control de Aduanas de EE. UU. En Dilley, Texas, la instalación más grande de este tipo. Los abogados de Juárez dicen que CoreCivic permitió que 2,400 camas se pudrieran por las malas condiciones. "No creemos que sea apropiado encarcelar a niños pequeños", dijo Stanton Jones, abogado de Juárez. "Como mínimo, si CoreCivic está ha-

ciendo grandes cantidades de dinero para dirigir una cárcel para niños, hay obligaciones legales que conllevan". Los estados financieros de CoreCivic dicen que obtuvo ingresos de $ 171 millones de dólares en las instalaciones de Dilley el año pasado.

Arrestado por robo DEPARTAMENTO DE POLICIA DE RIVERSIDE | CONTRIBUCIÓN

HEMET - Un hombre de 41 años fue encarcelado el primero de Agosto del año en curso bajo sospecha de una serie de robos en cervecerías, pequeños restaurantes familiares y/u otras empresas familiares en los condados de Riverside y San Diego. Nathan Maynard, ciudadano de Hemet, fue arrestado el viernes en Hemet y recluído en el centro de detención de Vista en el condado de San Diego en relación con el delito, dijo el portavoz de la policía de Oceanside, Tom Bussey. Entre marzo y julio, las autoridades recibieron informes de por lo menos 20 robos comerciales. "Basado en las similitudes de los crímenes y el video de vigilancia

obtenido, los investigadores creían que todos estos casos estaban relacionados '', dijo. El 21 de Julio, Maynard fue arrestado después de que la policía de Oceanside y Riverside lo observaron intentar irrumpir en Weins Brewing en Rancho California Road, Temecula, a través de una ventana. Cuando buscaron su vehículo, encontraron elementos que lo vinculan a varios otros robos en Riverside y San Diego. Fue ingresado en el centro de detención Robert Presley en Riverside pero liberado más tarde ese mismo día después de que pagó la fianza.

CINCINNATI - Lo último sobre la manifestación del presidente Donald Trump en Cincinnati: 7 p.m. Cientos de personas gritan "¡Resiste!" En respuesta a la llamada del megáfono de un orador a "¡Trump Tonto!" En una manifestación a un par de cuadras de la arena donde el presidente Donald Trump estaba celebrando un mitin en Cincinnati. La gente se reunió el jueves en el National Underground Railroad Freedom Center una hora antes de las 7 p.m. en el U.S.Bank Arena. El organizador de base, Richard Asimus, se quejó de que había que mover una manifestación planificada por separado porque la policía

había bloqueado las calles cercanas a la arena. El secretario de la corte demócrata del condado de Hamilton, Aftab Pureval (PYUR'-vawl), que asistió a la manifestación, hizo referencia a un momento en un mitin de Trump hace dos semanas en Carolina del Norte, cuando la multitud gritó: "¡Envíala de regreso!" Sobre una congresista nacida en Somalia de color.

de Maynard fue arrestada ese mismo día en una orden judicial no relacionada. Maynard está recluído en el centro de detención de Vista con una fianza fijada en $ 450,000 dólares. La lectura de cargos está pendiente, programada para las 8:30 a.m. del 8 de agosto en el palacio de justicia de Vista, de acuerdo con los registros de la cárcel.

Mariee estaba gravemente enferma y un día después ingresó en una sala de emergencias. Según los abogados de Juárez, Mariee comenzó a tener síntomas de una enfermedad respiratoria varios días después de ser llevados a Dilley. A medida que su condición empeoró, con una fiebre que alcanzó los 104.2 grados Fahrenheit (40.1 grados Celsius), luego tos y vómitos, sus abogados alegaron que el personal médico de Dilley no la trató adecuadamente y luego la autorizó a viajar. ICE dice que instalaciones como Dilley son más adecuadas que las celdas de la Patrulla Fronteriza para detener a niños. Tienen dormitorios y áreas para que jueguen los niños. El actual director interino de la agencia, Matthew

Albence, dijo al Congreso el año pasado que los centros de detención familiar como Dilley se describen mejor como "más como un campamento de verano". Pero los abogados y defensores han documentado las quejas de otras madres inmigrantes que dicen que sus peticiones de tratamiento médico para sus hijos fueron denegadas. Los abogados de Juárez ya han presentado una demanda legal contra ICE y otras agencias del gobierno de EE. UU. Exigiendo $ 60 millones como precursor de una demanda. También han presentado una demanda de $ 40 millones contra Eloy, Arizona, la ciudad que previamente tenía un acuerdo con ICE para servir como "transferencia" para la financiación de CoreCivic.

TRUMP from E1

do salió de la Casa Blanca para un viaje a Cincinnati el jueves, el presidente republicano también pensó que la senadora de California Kamala Harris "no lo hizo bien". Biden fue criticado por su desempeño deslucido en el primer debate presidencial demócrata en junio en Miami, pero parecía tener su propio miércoles en Detroit cuando fue atacado por los nueve rivales en el escenario con él. Trump dice que Biden "cojeó, pero lo logró". Harris se encontró con algunos de los ataques más difíciles que ha enfrentado desde que se convirtió en candidata. Trump dice que la carrera demócrata se está reduciendo a cuatro o cinco de los más de 20 candidatos para la nominación presidencial del partido. 4:15 p.m. El presidente Donald Trump dice que "preferiría" que sus seguidores no participaran en un canto de "enviarla de regreso" dirigido al representante Ilhan Omar, pero que si lo hacen, los "amará". Trump se distanció a regañadientes del canto después de una manifestación hace dos semanas, que siguió a los tuits racistas que envió contra Omar y otros tres legisladores de color de primer mandato. Trump había sugerido que si no les gustaban los Estados Unidos, deberían regresar a su lugar de origen, a pesar de que los cuatro son ciudadanos estadounidenses. El canto en el mitin de Greenville, Carolina del Norte, generó una condena generalizada. Trump dice que no está

Choque de tráfico fatal MITIN: Donald Trump habla frente a miles de personas en su mitin mientras otros manifestantes levantan la voz en contra de él. | Youtube screenshot seguro de qué hará si los partidarios recuperan el canto en un mitin en Ohio el jueves. Agrega que, independientemente de lo que suceda, su mensaje a los seguidores es: "Los amo". 3:30 pm. Miles de personas han estado en fila horas antes de la manifestación nocturna del presidente Donald Trump en Cincinnati. La enfermera Cynthia Wells dice que había unas 150 personas allí cuando llegó un poco después de las 8 a.m., casi 11 horas antes de la manifestación. La mujer de 63 años asiste a su tercer mitin de Trump, diciendo que le gusta su "energía". Ella no espera escuchar los cánticos de "¡devuélvala!" Sobre una congresista nacida en Somalia de una manifestación en julio en Carolina del Norte porque Trump luego expresó su desaprobación. Ella dice que no participará porque ese no es su mensaje. Robyn McGrail estaba celebrando su 44 aniversario de bodas con su esposo Mike asistiendo a su tercer mitin de Trump. Ella dice que si comienza el canto, probablemente animará porque ama a su país y si "no les gusta Es-

tados Unidos, deberían irse". 12:20 a.m. El último mitin del presidente Donald Trump será una prueba tanto para el candidato como para la multitud. La reunión de Cincinnati el jueves por la noche será la primera de Trump desde que su audiencia cantó "¡Envíala de regreso!" Sobre una congresista nacida en Somalia durante una manifestación en julio en Carolina del Norte, lo que aumenta la posibilidad de una campaña presidencial de 2020 cada vez más peleada en líneas raciales. El canto sobre la congresista demócrata Ilhan Omar de Minnesota por parte de una multitud rugiente de Greenville sacudió a los republicanos. Trump dejó que el canto continuara en el mitin. Desde entonces, ha emitido tweets incendiarios y una serie de ataques contra un veterano congresista afroamericano y su distrito predominantemente negro en Baltimore. Aumentando el drama, la manifestación de Trump vendrá inmediatamente después de dos debates demócratas y tendrá lugar en un contexto de tensión racial a fuego lento en Cincinnati.
