Soboba Helps Local Families with Turkey Giveaway MIKE HILES | CONTRIBUTED

T

he emphasis was on giving during the recent Soboba Drive-Thru Turkey Giveaways for families struggling with the ability to have a fulfilling Thanksgiving holiday. The Soboba Foundation and the Soboba Casino Resort partnered with the cities, local agencies and school districts of Hemet and San Jacinto to provide more than 2,000 meal boxes to some of its neediest residents.

Soboba Foundation President Dondi Silvas was one of many volunteers at the two events, held on Nov. 20 and Nov. 21. She was thankful for all the other volunteers that showed up to help make both days a huge success.

“For me personally, being able to hand out Thanksgiving dinners to families in our valley has truly been a humbling experience,” she said.

“2020 has been crazy and everyone has experienced difficult times but seeing the gratitude on the faces of families receiving these Thanksgiving dinners was such a blessing. I want to give a special thank you to Soboba’s Sponsorship Coordinator Andrew Vallejos and the Food and Beverage team at the Soboba Casino Resort plus a huge shoutout to Sysco Foods for working diligently on our request to help make Soboba Foundation’s dream a reality.”

cranberry sauce, corn, green beans and gravy. Dinner rolls and bags of cornbread stuffing mix filled out the pre-packaged boxes. Frozen items were delivered to pallets as the event began so that each family also received a 22-pound turkey, a

bag of seasoned mashed potatoes and a pumpkin pie.

Soboba Tribal Council Sergeant at arms Daniel Valdez stayed busy loading meal boxes into trunks and trucks for Hemet families during the four-hour giveaway.

“I love that Soboba gives back as much as it does – it’s great to help out the community,” he said.

Although Vince Record works at SJUSD, he volunteered to work traffic control during HUSD’s drive-thru event. He is the current chairman of Hemet San Jacinto Chamber of Commerce, which supports both districts and businesses within both cities. About five other chamber board members volunteered at both events.

“We appreciate the generosity of Soboba and we are happy to do what we can to help – it’s a worthy cause,” he said.

Miriam Ortiz, a Parent Engagement Specialist at HUSD, said most school sites have parent liaisons who were able to identify their neediest families. Despite distance learning being in place, staff has done what it can to stay in touch with students.

“For people in my type of role, it’s heartbreaking not to be able to connect families to resources,” she said. “That’s why today is so important. We have had to say ‘no’ so many times this year it’s exciting to be able to say ‘yes’ to something for them.”

Ortiz said more than 900 turkey meal boxes were prepared to give out to families with students at

SCE Names Top-10 Cities for Reporting Phone Scams, Urges Vigilance During Holiday Season Southern California Edison is sharing a list of the top-10 cities in its service area for customer-reported utility bill phone scams. Residents in these cities and others may experience an increase in scam attempts during the upcoming holiday season. The warning comes during Utility Scam Awareness Week, Nov.16-20, a campaign by Utilities United Against Scams to raise awareness about the threat posed by scams.

SCE customers report being victimized for nearly $300,000 so far this year by utility bill phone scams. While these and similar scams have existed for decades, the COVID-19 pandemic created widespread opportunities for con artists posing as utility representatives to target unsuspecting customers observing stay-at-home precautions. These attempts to steal money, personal information or both have expanded to include the growing use of mobile payment applications.

SCE’s top-10 cities for reporting utility phone scams this year are: ¡ Fontana ¡ Hemet ¡ Huntington Beach ¡ Irvine ¡ Long Beach ¡ Moreno Valley ¡ Ontario ¡ San Bernardino ¡ Santa Ana ¡ Whittier “Our customers are doing a great job of reporting attempted scams to us, so our company can take steps to help shut down the phone lines these fraudsters use,â€? says Jill Anderson, SCE’s senior vice president of Customer Service.

She added, “When the COVID-19 crisis erupted, SCE quickly suspended service disconnections for nonpayment and waived late fees by request for residential and small business customers, which will continue at least until April 2021. We also want our customers to know that any threat of immediate service disconnection without payment by someone claiming to be from SCE should be recognized as a scam attempt.�

Reports from customers to SCE indicate utility bill scams tend to target the elderly, English learners — or both — and smaller businesses such as hair salons and auto mechanics, many of which have been struggling since the pandemic started.

To avoid becoming a victim of a utility bill scam, customers should know that: ¡SCE does not have a “disconnection department.â€? ¡SCE will never demand an immediate payment with the threat of disconnection. ¡SCE does not accept prepaid cash cards or bitcoins for bill

EMWD and You: Working Together for a Healthy Sewer System EMWD CONTACT | CONTRIBUTED

E

MWD is proud to have the region’s largest wastewater collection system and to help protect public health through the responsible and environmentally sustainable treatment and reuse of wastewater. EMWD and its customers continue to invest in a system that protects public health, the environment and provides long-term benefits to local water supplies, including the expanded use of recycled water for irrigation.

EMWD customers can do their part to protect EMWD’s nearly 2,000 miles of sewer system pipelines – and their own drains on their property – by practicing these habits: • This holiday season, EMWD encourages fami-

lies to responsibly dispose of fats, oils and grease (FOG) that are the byproduct of fatty holiday meals such as turkey, roast beef, and bacon. When FOG cools, it hardens in drain lines and can cause blockages, which can be costly and lead to sewer spills or line breaks in the street. To properly dispose of FOG, customers should pour it into a coffee can or similar container; or let it cool and wipe the pan with paper towels and dispose of it in a waste bin. • Customers should avoid flushing unused medications down drains or toilets.

When medications enter the wastewater collection system, they can end up in recycled water and ultimately in the local groundwater basins. To dispose of unused medications, return them to a pharmacy drop off center

or put them in a bag of kitty litter and into a waste bin, which will deactivate the medications. • Customers should also avoid placing “Flushableâ€? wipes down the toilet. These wipes do not break down like toilet paper and can remain intact for years while submerged in water, causing blockages in the sewer system or damage equipment at wastewater treatment facilities. Such wipes should be disposed of in a waste bin. “EMWD is proud to be a leader in responsible wastewater collection and treatment and in doing its part to protect public health,â€?

EMWD Board President Ron Sullivan said. “Our ability to maintain a healthy sewer system is a partnership with our customers, and we appreciate their

ongoing commitment to do their part in not placing items down the drain that can cause damage to their systems. “We thank all of our customers for their efforts to do their part in being Sewer Smart, including the proper disposal of FOG this holiday season.�

EMWD currently treats more than 46 million gallons of wastewater every day, transforming it into a high-quality recycled water supply. EMWD is proud of its Healthy Sewers efforts and asks our customers to join us in being Sewer Smart on World Toilet Day, throughout the upcoming holiday season, and every day throughout the year.

Fourteen Charged in Alleged Job Training Fraud Scheme MYNEWSLA.COM | CONTRIBUTED

T

hree of 14 defendants accused in a $22 million fraud scheme based on schools in Riverside and Los Angeles where individuals in need of training were enrolled, but rarely if ever attended, are scheduled to be arraigned next week.

Manuel Alberto Dimas, 40, of Costa Mesa, Juan Francisco Leal Gonzalez, 52, of Diamond Bar, and Sarvia Ofelia Lopez, 53, of San Diego are each charged with insurance fraud and receiving commissions for recruitment of parties to a fraudulent enterprise.

All are free on their own recognizance. Lopez is scheduled to be arraigned Monday, Gonzalez on Tuesday and Dimas on Wednesday.

Their co-defendants are Karla Mariela Arevalo, 29,

of Fullerton, Estrella Juana Calix, 39, of Sylmar, Mariela Cardenas, 36, of Moreno Valley, Sandy Lissette Flores, 43, of Lakewood, Oswaldo Forero, 65, of Irvine, Jose Luis Gamas, 55, of Pomona, Mauricio Giovanni Hernandez, 46, of Sherman Oaks, Edward Holguin, 36, of Norwalk, Jose Nicasio Lara, 58, of South Gate, Araceli Soto, 38, of Ontario, and Melbe Zepeda, 41, of Bellflower.

According to the District Attorney’s Office, Forero and Zepeda were the principals behind the alleged fraud. They’re each charged with conspiracy and multiple counts of misrepresentation of facts to receive insurance benefits.

The pair are slated to be arraigned in March. The remaining nine defendants are scheduled to be arraigned in December.

Prosecutors allege that Forero and Zepeda estab-

lished two bogus schools — Ryon College in Riverside and Sutech School in Los Angeles — that, on paper, were designed to provide educational opportunities, through classroom and hands-on training, for individuals eligible to receive Supplemental Job Displacement Benefits, covered by workers’ compensation insurance.

Individual vouchers from the program ranged from $6,000 to $10,000, according to the District Attorney’s Office.

Prosecutors said the vouchers were primarily intended for injured workers with disabilities, seeking to return to the job market with fresh skills adaptable to new careers.

Other than Forero and Zepeda, most of the defendants were “cappers,� tasked with recruiting people to sign onto the program, “even if the students

didn’t have the requisite educational background — a high school diploma or equivalent,� according to a statement from the District Attorney’s Office. “The priority of the defendants was to make money using various tactics such as over-billing for laptops and tools, collecting lucrative vouchers for students who never or rarely attended the school, faking admission tests and giving students cash for their vouchers,� the statement said.

The alleged fraud occurred between 2015 and this year, according to the criminal complaint.

A months-long investigation by the California Department of Insurance, California Bureau for Private Post-Secondary Education and the District Attorney’s Office eventually uncovered the alleged scheme.

the Hemet-area schools and that HUSD’s nutrition services staff delivered 50 meal boxes to outlying schools in Idyllwild and Anza.

“We are extremely grateful for the generous donation that we received from the Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians Foundation, our community partners that served as volunteers, and all of the HUSD staff that made this joyful event possible,” she said.

Working with local agencies, the Soboba Foundation was also able to donate meal boxes to needy families that don’t have children attending schools in either district.

Churches and other nonprofits were able to identify people who are struggling and were grateful to be included. Valley Community Pantry Executive Director Jim Lineberger said he was surprised and excited to

receive the complete meal boxes. He said that because of COVID his agency did not receive an expected 175 turkeys, so this donation was a real blessing. He said the 250 meals were primarily given to people whose businesses were affected by COVID, such as cooks, waitresses and waiters currently not able to work.

“Soboba has always been one of the largest supporters of our organization,” Lineberger said. “They always seem to come through when sometimes we feel nothing will happen this year. We love the long partnership and not just what they do for us, but for this entire valley.”

The following day, a drive-thru event was held at San Jacinto High School.

Cars were greeted by SJUSD staff with festive signs as they drove in front of the Soboba Aquatic Center to redeem vouchers provided to the students’ families. The parking lot was set up in an assembly

line fashion, starting with an empty box that was wheeled on a cart to each stop to have one of the “trimmings” added. About 150 volunteers turned out to assist in the process and greet families as they drove through the line while upbeat music played from loudspeakers.

Riverside County Sheriff ’s Captain Leonard Purvis said he felt the giveaways were an excellent way for the communities to come together for something positive.

“I’m so happy to see all the smiles as the vehicles pull up,” he said. “This is the real deal. Soboba doesn’t just donate – they are not shy about getting in and digging deep with everyone chipping in.

There are Tribal Council members here and some from the Soboba Foundation – it’s amazing.”

Soboba Tribal Council Chairman Isaiah Vivanco said last year only turkeys were given away.

“We had this idea that

with everything going on this year, we wanted to make a bigger difference in the community and provide entire Thanksgiving meals,” he said. “We worked in partnership with the cities and school districts like we’ve done in the past – it’s just bigger than before. It’s awesome that we have all this support here.”

Tribal Council Secretary Monica Herrera said she was happy to help out for such a good cause and felt the logistics were well thought out, allowing hundreds of vehicles to move through the lines quickly and efficiently.

“Soboba is always there to help out the community – it’s great,” San Jacinto Deputy City Manager Tom Prill said as he added dinner rolls to the passing meal boxes.

A mom whose child attends an SJUSD school contacted school board member Jasmin Rubio to share her gratitude.

“I was so beyond touched

here are two things people want more than sex and money.

Care to take a gander as to what those could be? Bingo if you came up with “recognition and praise.” That little tidbit comes to us courtesy from one of the most successful business persons of our time - Mary Kay Ash, founder of Mary Kay Cosmetics. So was she right?

The answer to that lies in the success of her business.

Fortune Magazine recognized Mary Kay Inc with inclusion in the 100 best companies to work for in America and Mary Kay herself was acknowledged as “Most Outstanding Woman in Business in the 20th Century” from Lifetime Television; so apparently giving people “recognition and praise” works!

I often hear the phrase “attitude of gratitude” thrown around - especially at this Thanksgiving time of year.

the grocery store when I’m rushed, and I was extremely thankful awhile back when our neighbors trimmed their big tree branches hanging over our side of the fence.

I believe being thankful is a heart condition - the good kind of heart condition - it shows appreciation for another person who did something nice for you. To bad thankfulness becomes the most trendy only in November. We certainly could use a good dose of this heart condition year round.

There’s a fabulous little story found in the Bible that at first glance simply deals with Jesus healing ten lepers. These guys had been segregated from the rest of society and had lost everything - their families, their homes, their businesses.

They call out to Jesus, begging for mercy and healing.

Jesus heals them all, but here’s the clincher - only one healed ex-leper returns to say thank you. One! Uno!!

Some think that people shouldn’t have the need for a ‘thank you,’ but here, even Jesus is looking for an attitude of gratitude. The verse actually tells us this one ex-leper fell down at the feet of Jesus, thanking him. Jesus’ response? “I thought I healed ten men - where are the oth-

er nine?”

Wow! Jesus actually expected thanks from all ten men. My own conclusion is that if Jesus was looking for a ‘thank you’ it must be a big deal.

I personally want to develop an attitude of gratitude with fortitude that gives me latitude for a multitude of gratitude-like behavior without being misconstrued. You might be thinking, “Easy for you to say” but really, walking out a life of thankfulness is not that difficult. It’s really just becoming aware that there are other people in this world who deserve praise, recognition, and thanks!

So, while on the topic of Thanksgiving, here are a few intriguing Thanksgiving facts that just may surprise you. Did you know Americans buy more than 244 million turkeys each year for Thanksgiving? But every year there are still leftover, unsold turkeys. In 1953, Swanson came up with a clever way to use these leftovers. They sold them as part of a packaged meal that people could heat up later; we now refer to these as TV dinners. And, just for the record, the day before Thanksgiving is the biggest day for bar and liquor sales in the U.S., ahead of the Su-

SUSAN BECKETT | Courtesy Photo. per Bowl and New Year’s Eve! (What’s up with that?

I think people are probably processing potential ‘family table time’ - just my theory.)

But, in the end, this is still a special day set aside for being thankful and I love how William Ward spells out this delightful heart condition: “Gratitude can transform common days into thanksgivings, turn routine jobs into joy, and change ordinary opportunities into blessings.” And above all, let’s not forget the One from whom all blessings flow.

Psalm 107:1 sums it up perfectly: Give thanks to the Lord for He is good and his love endures forever!” Happy Thanksgiving!!

ut of the clear blue, or maybe not the clear blue, a battle has emerged between 4th District council-elect member Joe Males and former city council candidate, 83-yearold Miguel “Mike” Madrid. There are questions on both sides of this story.

Joe’s 28-year-old son, Nicholas, was murdered on Harvard Street in front of Elite Bar and Lounge.

Nicholas was in Hemet to help celebrate the birthday of his sister, according to Christopher, his brother. The 2016 murder was never solved by Hemet Police Department. To say this has caused untold grief to the Males family is an understatement. Joe, a wellliked guy, active in the community, is the commander of the Hemet American Legion. An attempt was made to contact Hemet Police Chief Eddie Pust to ask about the status of Nicholas Male’s investigation. The public knows very little about Mike Madrid. He seems like a relatively nice guy when you speak with him, albeit somewhat reticent when asked questions.

An interview with Chronicle journalist Rusty Strait appeared in the August 27th paper. Madrid serves as a police volunteer. That may explain why former Police

CITY COUNCIL DISTRICT 4 JOE MALES |

Chief Dave Brown allowed him to use his name as an endorsement in a mailer sent around during the election. We’ll go into that in a few paragraphs. Madrid has served on several local boards.

In a phone interview, Madrid proudly stated that he was self-funding his own campaign.

As it evolved, he found it necessary, like many candidates, to accept contributions. A review of the required forms describing contributions and expenditures reveals an interesting array of contributors. (Form 760 if you want to request a copy from the

Hemet City Clerk). Some of the contributors to Madrid’s campaign fought an expensive and mighty, but unsuccessful battle to unseat incumbent Karlee Meyer from the 1st District city council. Local members of a super pac (political action committee) contributed to Madrid’s campaign in terms of real dollars. Why would a super pac be so interested in having Madrid on the city council?

Madrid had his own idea of how he was going to approach this campaign and what it would take to become the next councilperson for district 4, the vacated seat of incumbent council member Bonnie Wright. Having moved out of state, Wright was no longer eligible to run for city council.

We feel it’s important to let readers know who was at the root of this action. The contributor list reads like a “who’s who” of Hemet, including but not limited to Ken Graff (vice-president Seven Hills Homeowner Association whose wife Diane is on the Measure U Oversight Committee), Eric Gosch, the elusive and out of state Bonnie Wright, Todd Foutz (of the Inland Empire Taxpayers Associations) & Gisela Gosch (to name a few).

Here’s some background on the campaign. There was a “Writ of

Mandamus” (mandate) placed in the case of Kenneth Graff versus The City of Hemet, Clay James (city clerk), Joe Males (candidate for city council), and the County of Riverside. Kenneth Graff. helped with candidate Miguel “Mike” Madrid’s campaign. A mailer was sent out endorsing Madrid by retired Hemet Chief of Police Dave Brown.

Brown’s name appeared in the return address area of the envelope but with Madrid’s home address. That was somewhat questionable. Nowhere on the envelope or the mailer was there any identifying information (as is legally required by the Secretary of State, California) stating this mailer was political or who was paying for it.

Under California’s Political Reform Act, committees must put “paid for by” disclaimers on campaign advertising, including campaign mailers, radio and television ads, telephone robocalls, and electronic media ads. This mailer/ brochure discusses “disclaimer” requirements for committees that purchase advertisements or circulate material supporting or opposing a state or local candidate or ballot measure in California.

Legal action ensued when Graff et al decided Males had not put in his papers in a timely man-

ner. Here’s a general sequence of events following these controversial actions.

Joe Males threw his hat into the ring as a candidate for city council, according to paperwork filed with the city, on August 10, 2020.

Bonnie Wright made a formal declaration that she had erred when she stated that candidates could have an additional 5 days from the initial required filing date of 08/05/2020. That was posted on the City of Hemet website. No one in the city caught her error.

A case was filed and a hearing was set on 10/02/20. A declaration by Priscilla A. Madrid was filed (any relation to candidate Miguel Madrid?) The follow-up date for completion of this case is 11/30/2020. Essentially, the judge agreed with the Males attorney that he was within his rights to file when he did, 08/10/2020.

When it became clear that Males was going to stay on the ballot (since they had already been printed when this action was brought), Graff decided (not on his own, to be sure), that maybe there was another way they could move things along. Now there is a battle brewing over where Males was living when he filed papers

Governor Newsom Announces Launch of California Rebuilding Fund to Help State’s Smallest Businesses Protect their California Dream OFFICE OF GOVERNOR CALIFORNIA | AP NEWS

A

s businesses across the state face challenges brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, Governor Gavin Newsom announced the opening of the California Rebuilding Fund to help impacted small businesses rebuild from the economic crisis and keep local economies strong. This program is built to be a resource in the market for the next year as businesses pivot and recover. The Fund was developed as a result of recommendations from the Governor’s Task Force on Business and Jobs Recovery, which emphasized the need to ensure that this economic recovery is equitable.

“Ensuring small businesses have access to capital will help stimulate economic growth across the state and support entrepreneurs working harder than ever to keep their doors open,” said Governor Newsom. “This public-private partnership will give underserved communities across California access to capital, making for a more inclusive economy.”

The California Rebuilding Fund is a public-private partnership that drives capital from private, philanthropic and public sector resources – including a $25 million anchor commitment and $50 million guarantee allocation from the California Infrastructure and Economic Development Bank (IBank) – to Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs). With this new Fund, California’s CDFIs will be better able to help under-banked small businesses recover and reposition themselves to survive the realities of the COVID-19 marketplace.

“As we work to recover from this recession, one of the most pressing issues we need to confront is the state of our small businesses,” said Scott Wu, Executive Director of IBank. “This unique collaboration will provide affordable capital to community lenders so they can get necessary funds into the hands of small businesses.”

The lenders will offer a standardized loan product with affordable and flexible terms for small businesses with loan sizes of up to $100,000. These loans are meant to be timed and struc-

tured to support businesses that are adapting their business and face upfront or ongoing expenses to operate safely in a postCOVID economy. The Fund will seek to distribute funds equitably across the state.

“We need to leverage the full strength and capacity of public-private partnerships to help the small business sector rebound and preserve the vital jobs they provide,” said Bill Daley, Vice Chairman of Public Affairs for Wells Fargo. “Wells Fargo is pleased to further extend its support to small business recovery through the California Rebuilding Fund, which will unlock new capital and expertise for small business owners, and we hope will help catalyze support for this important initiative in the state.

The California Small Enterprise (CASE) Task Force, a collaborative of individuals and organizations across industries and sectors, is leading the development and implementation of the Fund, which is being arranged by Calvert Impact Capital and will be administered by Kiva Capital Management. The Task Force is comprised of leaders from the

community development sector, national and state-based nonprofit organizations, philanthropic donors and investors, attorneys and others.

“This is a once-in-a-lifetime crisis for small businesses that requires a concerted and collaborative effort to overcome.

The California Rebuilding Fund is the kind of innovative effort we need to help small businesses retool, rebuild, and reopen,” said Laura Tyson, Distinguished Professor of the Graduate School at the UC, Berkeley Haas School of Business who is Co-Chair of Governor Newsom’s Council of Economic Advisers, has been serving on the Governor’s Task Force on Business and Jobs Recovery and has been working on the design and development of the Fund with Professor Adair Morse and UC Berkeley’s Sustainable and Impact Finance initiative. “This is a smart way to leverage private and public resources for maximum impact where it is most needed.”

All interested small business owners can apply for a loan at www.CALoanFund.org, which will collect standard information about their business and match

them with a community lender.

If matched, the lender will assist the business owners with the application and provide free advisory support alongside a network of business support organizations organized by the California Association of Micro Enterprise Opportunity (CAMEO), Small Business Majority, California’s Small Business Development Centers and Women’s Business Centers. The portal will begin accepting applications at 12:00 p.m. PST on Friday, November 20 and can be accessed through the Fund’s website.

The California Rebuilding Fund is just one of the tools available to support small businesses as they work to safely reopen and recover from this public health crisis. Learn more here.

The California Rebuilding Fund is funded with support from IBank and initial private funders including Wells Fargo, First Republic Bank, the Grove Foundation, Kapor Center, the Panta Rhea Foundation and generous individual donors. Community Reinvestment Fund’s Connect2Capital platform is hosting applications at www.

CALoanFund.org.

THE POLITICAL NOTEBOOK From the Democrats of Hemet-San Jacinto

FRAGILE “Democracy’s a very fragile thing. You have to take care of democracy. As soon as you stop being responsible to it and allow it to turn into scare tactics, it’s no longer democracy, is it? It’s something else. It may be an inch away from totalitarianism.” This is a quote of Pulitzer Prize winning Sam Shepard.

“The fabric of democracy is always fragile everywhere because it depends on the will of citizens to protect it, and when they become scared, when it becomes dangerous for them to defend it, it can go very quickly.” This quote is by Margaret Atwood.

We are aware of failed democracies in other countries. As a country, we have tried to establish democracies in other countries, mostly without success. But because our American Democracy has survived for 244 years, we seldom think our democracy as fragile. The recently concluded election cycle clearly demonstrates shows just how fragile our democracy is.

We usually assume that a threat to our democracy would come from outside our country but early in our history, it was understood that a threat could come from within. The first members of Congress developed this simple 14-word oath:

“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support the Constitution of the United States.”

The current oath was enacted in 1884. It reads: “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.” The shenanigans of Donald Trump and his enablers was (and is) an internal threat, a domestic threat to our democracy. They have sought to restrict voting of the people by making it difficult to obtain IDs, by limiting access to voting and ballot drop off locations, by limiting voting days and hours. They tried to knee cap the ability of the U.S Postal Service to deliver ballots on time. Trump has even tried to persuade State lawmakers to disregard the vote of the people and to select alternative electors favorable to Trump to vote in the Electoral College. Fortunately for America, Trump is just not smart enough to pull this off nor are his hand-picked lapdogs and lawyers. A smarter conspirator might have been able to pull off such a coup. It is incumbent that our next Congress take action to strengthen our democracy. We need to make our democracy less fragile.

Dick Gale, President of Hemet-San Jacinto Democrats

DIFFERENT POINT OF VIEW

Fads Come and Fads Go I MUHAMMAD NAEEM | COLUMNIST

am a big fan of fads. For me, fads provide a good study into a culture’s whims and impulses, and highlight where we are psychologically as a nation. Some fads are short-lived even though they spread fast, but some do endure the test of time, if only to lose public enthusiasm slowly. Remember fidget spinners. They took over the country like a Biblical plague of locusts, descended on every counter in stores, and then disappeared, almost the next day. Then there is the Rubik’s Cube. It appeared instantly throughout the world, but has stayed with us in the toy aisles of every major store.

This may show my age, but does anyone remember the Pet Rocks and Cabbage Patch Kids?! These fads were hard to explain. Those of us who fell for them were very passionate about having them, while the rest of us wondered about their sanity. It was hard to explain why they were so popular, yet, one couldn’t resist having them just so we don’t get left out of whatever magic they possessed.

I remember when kids used to wear clothes

with the city. Males is a property owner in Hemet. However, at the time papers were filed, he was living in a leased home in Seven Hills, where he resides. He moved there to assist in family matters.

The argument is that he was not living in the district when he filed papers with the City of Hemet. It sounds like we have a sore loser or worse yet, a group of people that would like to have control over the decisions made by the city council, without actually being responsible for the outcomes.

Males got considerably more votes than Madrid, demonstrating the will of the people. He has a credible background, is a veteran, and a solid citizen of the community with a heart to serve.

He has made himself available to anyone with questions.

Madrid, on the other hand, has been conspicuously unavailable and refused to participate in a “meet the candidates” forum live-streamed by Eddie George and put on by former city council candidate and community activist Stacie Olson, also of Hemet. The livestream took place on Saturday, October 2, 2020, and was videotaped for later viewing on You-

Tube. That video is available on Eddie George’s Hemet Eye News YouTube Channel.

All candidates were extended the opportunity to appear and discuss their desires to run and their plans for Hemet’s future. Madrid was not only invited, he was texted as a reminder and called, not once, but several times. He had stated unequivocally that he felt he would not be treated fairly. All candidates were treated equally and all questions were directed in a fair and impartial manner. Miguel “Mike” Madrid wants to be on the city council but he doesn’t want anyone asking him questions. Being a city council member requires good interpersonal skills with the willingness to engage the public. The voters clearly want new council members that are capable of independent thinking, based on facts and not on dreams. Citizens are tired of unkept promises and an almost bankrupted city.

Voters saw this as an opportunity for a new direction.

The Chronicle is not aware of why this fight is taking place, we can only speculate. We’ve provided you the available facts and can only guess at the motives behind this ongoing stand-off.

with price tags still attached to them and proudly displayed those price tags for others to see. How about fanny packs? I had a friend who was so fashion conscious about fanny packs; it was like a tie for him.

He would not go anywhere without one attached to his waist. How about pogs? Don’t know what pogs are? Shame on you!

One fad that has always boggled my mind is grown men’s tendency to wear their pants halfway down their legs and display their underwear to the public as if it is a medal. They struggle to walk straight, yet the underwear must be showing, along with the assets it is supposed to cover, without shame or disgrace, in front of women and kids, friends and relatives. I can’t fathom the logic behind such a display. Does it really make them look so cool? Yes, I am talking to you, the guys that come to my business with their wife and kids in tow. One meme did explain it to me very clearly: “Easy access for the homies.”

Another equally obnoxious fad I’ve noticed around town is the tendency of some pickup truck owners to put this wall of bright lights on the front of their trucks and blind every driver in front of them or those going in the opposite direction. I am not talking about a bar of LED lights; I am talking about this oval of lights that comes at you like a river. These should be illegal, and we should increase the funding of our police to fight this crime against humanity. I mean, pickup trucks are obnoxious in their own right—I know because my wife owns one— but to equip them with these torture devices is just too much.

Speaking of obnoxious fads: Donald Trump. How many of us that voted for him, now feel ashamed that we supported him for all these years? He was our craze, our fling with the bad boy, which fizzled out

o get to Pachea Trail, I cheat: I toss my bike into the back of the Tundra and drive to the end of San Jacinto Ave. From there it is a short ride to Pachea Trail, where San Jacinto dead-ends. First is to cross Stetson Ave., then follow the street DOWN! It’s all fun and games at first, as I zoom by (by the by: this is much more fun than the other kind of ‘zooming’ going on nowadays). However, soon I reach and turn right on Legend Lane and the ‘fun’ begins.

It is mostly a ‘stand up and pedal with all your might’ ride, with almost no break at all, all the way to the top. You are dimly aware of the flocks of California quail, that the houses and the landscaping and the views are all very good, but that does not mean that you enjoy any of it, because pedaling requires all your energy and attention. Stage One is a straight up rise of about seven minutes, before turning left into Stage Two, a twisting, turning stand up and pedal continuation, before emerging at a slight leveling out of maybe thirty seconds, before beginning the last Stage Three, another stand up and pedal all the way to the end of the pavement, which ends at a dead end, overlooking the valley, as fenced dogs along the way bark at you excitedly. Today, a couple of beautiful Akitas accosted me— from behind a fence, having presumably little else to do all day. It’s always and briefly fun, yet potentially dangerous to fly back down.

The only thing that I can compare it to is riding down a long and large wave at Huntington Beach when I lived there.

At the top, where the road ends in a hill full of boulders, I have a full view of Diamond Valley Lake. Total time, for me (but maybe not for you): between fifteen and seventeen minutes. However . . . should you wish MORE exertion . . . turn around, resist the temptation to fly down back to the bottom and instead, slow down and go up the first right up ANOTHER HILL—it is called Peak St. It is ANOTHER stand up and pedal with all your might scenario! This one is another four or five minutes.

The road ends at a private gate. Total time now:

about twenty-one minutes.

Once, riding my Huffy ten speed (around 1994) I crashed—like all bicycle crashes, it was quite ugly. I had actually slowed down considerably to maybe ten or twelve miles per hour, as I approached the cross-street at the bottom. I didn’t notice the sand. I lost control when I hit the sand and flew off, smacking my head on the street, rolling and sliding on the asphalt, right in front of an elderly, Canadian woman, who showed concern for me. “But you’re all right? But you’re all right, eh?” I was a mess. I had no idea.

“I don’t know”, I said from the ground. “Let’s see . . .” I got up and found that I could walk.

The bicycle was fine! Those Huffy bicycles were tough! So, I rode home. Foolishly, I had not worn a shirt that day and so had slid on the asphalt without one. The result must have looked shocking because I noticed as I rode to my then home in Hemet, that cars would pass me, but the drivers and passengers were sticking out their heads and surveying me. As I rounded the last corner for home, a group of people looked at me. One said, “And he STILL got up!” Another torturous block and I was home. I entered the garage and put away the bicycle. As I walked in, heading for the bathroom, I shouted to my wife, “Don’t look, honey!” She gasped when she saw me. I disrobed, turned on the shower, got in and nearly passed out from the pain. I found later that my head had struck the ground so hard that the collision had cracked my bike helmet to the length of two and a half inches all the way through. That would have been my head.

Should you require, as I do, a complete forty-five-minute workout, you may not go back home or to the truck. Instead, you make a right at the bottom and continue until you reach Pageant St., and make a right. Immediately it is time to stand up and pedal (of course!). This one takes an additional seven minutes to the top of the parking lot. Currently, it is ‘closed’.. In reality it is not closed at all. I have seen workmen improving the parking lot, and the gate has been open, although ‘closed’ to traffic. The workers say nothing to me as I huff and puff my way past them and cross the lot to the top.

Upon reaching the top I initially returned by way of the road leading down to Dartmouth St. However, as that required stopping at the locked gate and walking my bike (and breaking the momentum) around the post, I decided to return the way I came.

It is as exhilarating and fun!

A PROMISED LAND: #1 on Amazons Book Charts, Obamas "A Promised Land" sold nearly 890,000 copies in the U.S. and Canada in its first 24 hours putting it on track to be the best selling presidential memoir in modern history. | Courtesy photo / Wikipedia

and final Harry Potter novel, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," which came out in 2007 and sold more than 8 million copies within 24 hours.

Obama's 768-page memoir, which came out Tuesday and has a list price of $45, had unusually risky timing for a book of such importance to the author, to readers and to the publishing industry. It came out just two weeks after Election Day and could have been overshadowed had the race still been in doubt or perhaps unwanted by distressed Obama fans if President Donald Trump had defeated Democratic nominee Joe Biden. But Biden won and his victory likely renews interest in an era when he was Obama's trusted and popular vice president.

Obama himself acknowledges that he didn't intend for the book, the first of two

planned volumes, to arrive so close to a presidential election or to take nearly four years after he left the White House — months longer than for "My Life" and two years longer than "Decision Points." In the introduction to "A Promised Land," dated August 2020, Obama writes that "the book kept growing in length and scope" as he found he needed more words than expected to capture a given moment — a bind many authors well understand. He was also working under conditions he "didn't fully anticipate," from the pandemic to the Black Lives Matters protests, to, "most troubling of all," how the country's "democracy seems to be teetering on the brink of crisis."

Because of the pandemic, Obama will not go on the all-star arena tour Michelle Obama had for "Becoming."

But he benefits from the attention of any memoir by a former president and by the special attention for Obama, who has the rare stature among politicians of writing his own books and for attracting as much or more attention for how he tells a story than for the story itself.

Obama has already written two acclaimed, million-selling works, "Dreams from My Father" and "The Audacity of Hope, which came out in

ormer President Barack Obama's "A Promised Land" sold nearly 890,000 copies in the U.S. and Canada in its first 24 hours, putting it on track to be the best selling presidential memoir in modern history.

The first-day sales, a record for Penguin Random House, includes pre-orders, e-books and audio.

"We are thrilled with the first day sales," said David Drake, publisher of the Penguin Random House imprint Crown. "They reflect the widespread excitement that readers have for President Obama's highly anticipated and extraordinarily written book." The only book by a former White House resident to come close to the early pace of "A Promised Land" is the memoir

by Obama's wife, Michelle Obama, whose "Becoming" sold 725,000 copies in North America its first day and has topped 10 million worldwide since its release in 2018. "Becoming" is still so in demand that Crown, which publishes both Obamas and reportedly paid around $60 million for their books, has yet to release a paperback.

As of midday Wednesday, "A Promised Land" was No. 1 on Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble.com. James Daunt, CEO of Barnes & Noble, said that the superstore chain easily sold more than 50,000 copies its first day and hoped to reach half a million within 10 days. "So far it has been neck and neck with Michelle Obama's book," he said.

By comparison, Bill Clinton's "My Life" sold around 400,000 copies in North America its first day and George W. Bush's "Decision Points" around 220,000, with sales for each memoir currently between 3.5 and 4 million copies. The fastest selling book in memory remains J.K. Rowling's seventh

2006. His new book covers some of the same time period as his previous ones, while continuing his story through the first 2 1/2 years of his presidency and the 2011 killing of Osama bin Laden by the Navy SEALS. Publishers Weekly praised the book as "shot through with memorable turns of phrase," while other reviews were more qualified, calling the book all too reflective of Obama's thoughtful, even-handed style. The New York Times' Jennifer Szalai wrote that the "most audacious thing" about "A Promised Land" is "the beaming portrait" of Obama on the cover. The Washington Post's Carlos Lozada noted that in "domestic policy and foreign affairs, in debates over culture and race, Obama splits differences, clings to the middle ground and trusts in process as much as principle."

"It turns out he is not a 'revolutionary soul' but a reformist one, 'conservative in temperament if not in vision.' Behind those dreams, the audacity and all that promise is a stubborn streak of moderation," Lozada wrote.

Obama's book is the highlight of publishing's holiday season and for some independent bookstores, the potential difference between remaining in business or closing. Publishing sales have been surprisingly stable during the pandemic, but much of the benefit has gone to Amazon.com as readers turned increasingly to online purchases.

The American Booksellers Association, the independent sellers' trade group, has warned that hundreds of stores could go out of business if holiday sales fall short. Kris Kleindienst, co-owner of Left Bank Books in St. Louis, anticipates selling around 1,000 copies by the end of the year, a number which makes "a HUGE difference" for annual revenues, she wrote in an email. Sarah McNally, owner of McNally Jackson Books in Manhattan, said she sold around 600 copies in the first 24 hours, a pace exceeded only by the final Harry Potter book.

"It's not hard to be a bright spot this year, a year when we would have gone out of business without federal aid," McNally said. "But Obama does feel like a savior, as do our customers for buying this from us."

Safe at Home: Care Options Abound for Aging in Place LAKELYN HOGAN | CONTRIBUTED

I

n the COVID-19 pandemic, home has been reinforced as the center of the universe for many of us. It's evolved into our office. It's doubled as our children's classroom. It's transformed into our vacation destination. And it continues to be where we eat, sleep and unwind every day. As the safest place we can be during an ongoing global health crisis, our homes have never been more central to our lives.

For the oldest among us, this is only magnified, as eight out of every 10 COVID-19 deaths reported in the United States have been people 65 and older, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Statistics like these underscore how vital practices such as social distancing and sheltering in place are for older adults.

Fortunately, regardless of the pandemic, home is where most people want

to be as they grow older. In fact, research conducted for Home Instead Inc., finds that 90 percent of older adults hope to age in place at home. But most can't do so without help -- 70 percent of older adults in the 65+ age group will need assistance at some point.

So how can we honor the wishes of older generations in the pandemic, keep them safe, and ensure they receive the care they need?

The good news is that there are more options than ever for care for aging adults.

Outside of the home, options such as retirement villages and senior apartments can provide a great deal of independence, particularly for those who are unable to age within their home. For those with specialized care needs that require higher-acuity care, alternatives such as nursing homes and memory care facilities are worth considering. However, none of these alternatives can provide the flexibility and affordability of home care. Home care

keeps people in the safety of their own homes and offers services that span the spectrum of assistance for older adults -- from transportation and companionship to medication management and around-the-clock care.

If your loved one requires specialized care -- whether rehabilitating from an injury or living with Alzheimer's disease or other dementias -- home care allows for a range of options to match your specific needs. You can work with your provider to figure out the right fit.

If you're caring for a loved one from a distance, home care can provide peace-of-mind by simply having someone visit for a few hours, a couple times a week. Families can work with their provider to determine the appropriate level of care and stay closely connected to stay on top of changing needs. During difficult financial times, a team approach to home caregiving is an especially smart choice. Family mem-

bers, friends, neighbors and providers can divide responsibilities to ensure your loved one is looked after. This is very important for anyone who feels overwhelmed by caring for a relative.

Ask for help! The pandemic has never made the need for a break more apparent among family caregivers.

When considering available care choices, cost is certainly a factor that rises to the top of the list for most. Unfortunately, far too many people assume resources such as Social Security and Medicare will pick up the entire tab. Beyond private pay or self-insurance, which are the most common ways people pay for care, long-term care insurance is a great option and, for those who qualify, Medicaid or Veterans Assistance could help.

Before the pandemic, family caregivers were spending nearly $7,000 per year to care for an aging loved one by reduc-

COVID-19 has only exacerbated the situation. What these people are experiencing underscores the importance of planning ahead.

But the truth is, only half of older adults have taken the time to do so. And the key to choosing the right approach for yourself -- or a family member -- is planning and discussing the alternatives before they're

even needed.

Charlie Brown specials to air on TV, after all, in PBS deal ASSOCIATED PRESS | CONTRIBUTED

T

he “Great Pumpkin” never showed on broadcast television this year, but after a deal with PBS, the Charlie Brown Thanksgiving and Christmas specials will return to the air.

Last month, Apple TV+ became the new home to the beloved Peanuts holiday specials. That sparked an outcry from viewers who were accustomed to annually tuning in on network TV. Apple offered each special to stream for free for a handful of days, but that didn't stop online petitions from gath-

On Wednesday, Apple bowed to the backlash, announcing it had teamed up with PBS for ad-free broadcasts of “A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving” (on Nov. 22) and “A Charlie Brown Christmas” (on Dec. 13).

Both specials will also be available for free during three-day windows on Apple TV+ (Nov. 25-27 for “Thanksgiving” and Dec. 1113 for “Christmas.”) For subscribers, the specials will be available beginning Nov. 18 and Dec. 4, respectively.

When success in school depends on technology at home, low-income students lose out JACQUELINE GARCÍA | CONTRIBUTED

C

ramped in a small garage converted into a studio apartment in Pacoima, Calif., one of the poorest cities in the San Fernando Valley, Carla Hernandez and her three younger siblings try their best to keep up with their classes. Carla, 17, is overwhelmed.

“Some teachers speak too fast and I can’t follow all the assignments,” she said. “Other times we have trouble with the internet.”

With in-person classes on hold in the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) and many districts across the country due to COVID-19, school is taking place online.

While that poses challenges for children and families at all rungs of the economic ladder, the struggles are magnified for students like Carla and her siblings, Luis, 12, Jessica, 9, and Christian, 7. They don’t have the basic technology they need. They don’t have space and quiet to concentrate on their studies.

Their mother, Cirenia Hernandez, 46, is a street vendor. She usually works afternoons so she can be with her children in the morning and make sure

they’re logging in to school.

She says she understands their frustration but there’s little she can do. She’s not tech-savvy and she doesn’t speak English.

The family cannot afford internet service, but as a high school student, Carla received a hot spot when schools shut down in March. All four children tried to use it to join classes, making the connection agonizingly slow — if it worked at all.

“When they cannot connect to the internet, they can’t attend class and then teachers call me saying my children missed class,” their mother said.

Jessica, a third grader, says she tries to pay attention to her lessons but often is unsuccessful. “I miss going back to regular classes,” she said.

Christian also has difficulty staying focused. Too often, a slow or dropped web connection has given him an excuse to toss aside his tablet for the rest of the school day. His mother said she repeatedly requested help from the school.

Christian finally received a hot spot last month, which has improved connectivity in the household. But the siblings don’t have headphones, so they can’t tune out one another as they try

“If it was up to me I would immediately take them to school,” Cirenia said.

COVID-19 infections in Los Angeles remain above the level the state has set for safely bringing students back to the classroom, and LAUSD has not set a date for reopening schools.

A national survey of 344 high school principals, published in September, documents the enormity of the challenges facing low-income children and the schools that serve

them, as remote instruction has become a way of life. Only 16% of highpoverty schools reported that most students had the technology they needed to switch to remote learning when schools abruptly closed, compared with 48% of low-poverty schools.

In more than one-third of high-poverty schools, almost none of the students had computers or other equipment at home. Nor was school staff equipped for the transition: in only 8% of high-poverty schools did all staff have the tech-

nology necessary to do their jobs remotely. The study, by the UCLA Institute for Democracy, Education and Access, found that 25% of high school students overall — and 67% of students in high-poverty schools — did not keep up with academic work.

The digital divide all but guaranteed inequality in remote learning opportunities, but other issues also have weighed heavily on students during the pandemic. The death of a relative or job loss in the family have led to grief, trauma,

and economic distress. In addition to scrambling to move classrooms online, half of the principals said they provided support to students experiencing insecurity or homelessness, about 77% provided access to mental health counseling, and 43% of principals reported they supported students who experienced death in their families.

“Principals wanted to respond to all of those needs but have limited tools to do that because of the limits on the resources that they have,” said John Rogers, a co-author of the study.

In LAUSD, the biggest needs have been to provide access to virtual classes and to feed students and their families, The district, the second largest in the nation, serves nearly 700,000 students, and more than 80% live at or below the poverty line.

“Like my colleagues from school districts in towns and cities across America, we fed hungry families because others did not,” LAUSD Superintendent Austin Beutner recently said during a briefing. “We redirected scarce funds to buy computers and internet access because children not in classrooms would

How Cannabis Vaporizer Brands Market Products to Young People on Instagram COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY CONTACT | CONTRIBUTED

A

study by Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health researchers examines how cannabis vaporizer brands use Instagram to market their products by employing visuals that may appeal to young people and tagging popular musicians, social media influencers, and cannabis products to expand the brands’ reach. Findings are published in the journal Drug and Alcohol Dependence.

Instagram has over 100 million monthly active users, with 25 percent between the ages of 13 and 24. In the United States in 2018, 72 percent of teenagers ages 13 to 17 said they

used Instagram. Facebook (the company that owns Instagram) prohibits paid advertising of illegal, prescription, or recreational drugs; however, posts to brand pages and profiles, while frequently used for marketing purposes, are not subject to this policy.

The research was overseen by Daniel Giovenco,

PhD, an assistant professor of sociomedical sciences at Columbia Mailman who studies social and environmental determinants of tobacco use disparities.

Torra Spillane, MPH ‘17, a project coordinator in the Department of Sociomedical Sciences, conceptualized and spearheaded this study. Bryce Wong, MPH

‘19, previously a Lerner Center Research Fellow in Sociomedical Sciences, is a co-author.

The researchers performed a content analysis of Instagram posts uploaded between October 2017 and October 2018 by three popular cannabis vaporizer brands: Kandypens (731 posts), G Pen (454

posts), and Pax (71 posts).

Posts had a wide reach, with a total of 467,700 followers across the brands, although reach may be wider as G Pen and Pax had public profiles with no age-verification process at the time of the study.

About a third of posts by the three brands tagged Instagram accounts of social media influencers or other individuals (34.3%); approximately the same portion of posts tagged other companies or their products (31.9%). Musicians (34.6%) and “cannabis influencers” (29.1%)—Instagram users with established relationships with cannabis brands who promote products through the platform—were the most common occupational identities in accounts

tagged.

Two-thirds (68.0%) of posts depict someone using the product, although cannabis was rarely mentioned (8.9%) or depicted (10.0%) in posts. Few posts mention age restrictions (0.3%), health risks (5.2%), or health benefits (0.2%).

Encouragingly, the three companies do not appear to be alluding to unfounded or weakly authenticated health claims about their products or cannabis consumption, a practice often employed by the recreational and medical cannabis industry.

Kandypens’ website claims their products are for aromatherapy purposes, and the researchers found the brand’s In-

VETERANS POST

By Freddy Groves

PURPLE HEART PHONY With snow expected that afternoon, I suspected the veteran crew might not have shown up outside the coffee shop, but there they were, socially distanced around the sidewalk. And they were in the middle of a hot conversation when I stepped up.

The topic was a guy who had potentially faked his military history and worse, had claimed he was a Purple Heart recipient, this time right here at home.

“He’s in our VFW. We took him in.”

“He needs to be brought down, if he’s a liar.”

“So, do I make the call? I’ll be calling in a favor if I do.”

The group took a vote, going around the circle. It was 100% to find out once and for all if their fellow veteran was indeed a liar and a thief.

The main guy slid a phone out of his pocket, stabbed in a number, said a few words, listened and then hung up.

I can’t repeat here his exact angry words, but the summary was: Their friend and fellow veteran had lied. He hadn’t served where he’d claimed he had, hadn’t had the MOS he’d claimed he had, and he certainly had not earned a Purple Heart.

MOS is a code that identifies the job someone has in the military. This particular veteran had worked in supply at a small CONUS base. Unless he’d gotten a paper cut while stocking shelves, he’d never been wounded. Somewhere there was a faked DD-214.

I tossed my coffee cup in the trash and walked away, leaving the group to their collective misery while they explored just how they’d been taken in.

I’d heard the story too many times. Veterans and those who’d never served claiming benefits, medals and admiration they never earned, enjoying a higher-level Priority Group at a Department of Veterans Affairs medical center, telling tall tales.

Eventually they get caught, like this phony just did, by people who pay attention to their gut feelings. The Stolen Valor Act would take it from there.

911 GETTING A PARTNER WITH VA CRISIS LINK We all know to call 911 when there’s an emergency -- car crash, burglary, need of an ambulance -- but we’ll soon be getting an additional number.

Starting in the summer of 2022, we’ll also have 988 as a direct line for suicide prevention and mental health crises.

It’s been in the works since last summer, giving telephone companies time to set things up. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, the Department of Veteran Affairs and the North American Numbering Council all have been working together, and this summer the FCC adopted rules to designate this number -- 988.

The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline will still be working at 1-800-273-8255 (1-800-273-TALK).

As different parts of the country come online, those calling the new number will be transferred over to the crisis line, but the old number will continue to work.

Veterans who call either number should press 1 after dialing to reach the Veterans Crisis Line. They also can chat online at www.veteranscrisisline.net or text 838255. There’s also support for the deaf or hard of hearing at TTY 1-800-799-4889.

When you read the nationwide stats, you know how important the crisis lines are. Two years ago, the hotline answered over 2 million calls, averaging over 180,000 calls per month. Chats are used as well, averaging 8,500 per month.

On the Veterans Crisis Line, there is a network of 400 suicide prevention coordinators at VA facilities around the country. After a completed call to the crisis line, within a day, one of those coordinators will hook up with the caller as follow-up.

The support for veterans in crisis is free. The crisis line serves all veterans, service members, National Guard and Reserve, as well as family members and friends. Go online to www.veteranscrisisline.net to see the signs of crisis. Then make the call if needed.

he U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) announced today at least 25,000 more Veterans are now receiving monetary benefits through federally-insured banks and credit unions — mitigating their risk of fraud occurrence.

Prior to the inception of the Veterans Benefits Banking Program (VBBP), established in December 2019, Veterans who did not have bank accounts were only able to receive monetary benefits through pre-paid debit cards or paper checks.

stagram posts had few mentions of cannabis. However, the account frequently tagged users labeling themselves as cannabis influencers, suggesting that brands may indirectly promote themselves for use with cannabis in order to avoid regulatory oversight.

Visual Appeals to Young People Three brands present themselves in different ways. Generally, G Pen posts images of musicians, video games, and youthful models in hip, urban settings. Pax presents upscale domestic images and relatively older models. Kandypens favors a retro “hippie” aesthetic with nearly all of its posts of young women, including sexualized images. (Kandypens requires users to report their age as over 18 to access its posts). Among the brands’ Instagram posts that feature a person, 84 percent depict female users.

“Most cannabis users in the United States are men, so the widespread use of female models may indicate that cannabis vaping companies are attempting to reach to a broader audience, a strategy similar to those historically used by the tobacco industry,” notes Spillane, the study’s lead author.

otherwise have no way to participate in school.”

The district has also developed an initiative, Primary Promise, which provides reading assistance and extra instruction in math and English to students in grades K-2 who need the help.

“The Promise has started with one-on-one tutoring at schools while classes are online, and we’re adding teachers in elementary grades to provide more direct instruction,” Beutner said. “This will allow one teacher to keep working with most of the students in a class while the extra teach-

ministration working diligently to contact Veterans directly by mail and telephone calls to explain the benefits of switching to direct deposit, we are reducing this number,” said VA Secretary Robert Wilkie. “This is important

because Veterans who don’t have an account with direct deposit are at risk for theft, fraud, or high fees when accessing their benefits.”

VA partnered with the Association of Military Banks of America and worked with the Defense Credit Union Council to leverage their consortium of military-friendly financial institutions that cater to service members to enhance the financial services available to VA beneficiaries.

VA will continue to reach out to Veterans without bank accounts or those with limited access to banking services, to let them know — they now have options.

about him. Can we really see his poor behavior, and that of his weird and ridiculous cronies, and feel any sense of pride in picking him as our leader? He and his team are so busy denigrating our system and insulting our fellow citizens, so busy in making us look stupid in the eyes of the world, so busy in

spitting in our faces, that we must feel embarrassed at his feeble and pointless attempts to hang on to power.

Yes, it is time for this fad to go and it will go, come 20th January. I just hope that the next similar fad that comes along, will not take such a heavy toll on our dignity.

Is More Regulation Needed?

The researchers write that Facebook could update its policies to include a mechanism for oversight and regulation of brand-owned pages that market cannabis and related products, including guidelines to protect the public’s health, such as age-gating and information on consumer safety. Many states with recreationally legal cannabis restrict marketing practices including unfounded health claims, promotional activities, and youth targeting, although these rules do not restrict Internet marketing efforts, which might require federal policy action.

Spillane notes, “We’d like to see more research exploring cannabis marketing, including an expanded focus on the diversity of administration methods and substance forms.

A better understanding of brand marketing can help inform relevant policies, educational interventions, and other initiatives that reduce population health risks and promote consumer safety.”

32 to 61 percent. Use is also high among young people, with research finding that almost half (44%) of adolescent cannabis users reporting lifetime cannabis vaping. Another survey found that past 30-day prevalence of cannabis vaping was 14 percent among high school seniors in 2019—a massive 86-percent increase over 2018.

Little research exists on the health effects of vaporizing cannabis, and evidence is mixed. Some experts express concern over high concentrations of THC in cannabis concentrates, dry herb, and other cannabis products that are frequently vaped, along with new additives, solvents, and flavor extracts that are largely unregulated. In 2019, cannabis vaping products, particularly those purchased from informal sources, were linked to an outbreak of lung injuries in the U.S.; vitamin E acetate, a thickening agent added to some THC vaping liquids, is thought to have played a major role. Conversely, vaping cannabis has been associated with fewer respiratory problems and may reduce exposure to smoke-related toxins and carcinogens when compared to smoking.

Background on Vaping Cannabis Vaping cannabis, which involves heating cannabis flower or concentrates to a vapor that users inhale, has recently gained mainstream popularity. Estimates of adults who have ever vaped cannabis range from er or aide can focus on those who might need extra support.”

Academic support is critical, but it is not the only thing that children stuck at home need. The isolation of remote schooling can have significant mental health implications, said Aneesh Chaudhry, a brain health expert with the SoulPhysio Foundation.

When children are cut off from friends and outside activities, they lose out on experiences and interactions that help the brain mature. “A very important part about a child’s development in their brain is being exposed to social connection amongst their peers, playing outside, playing sports games, recess,” Chaudhry said.

The study was supported by a grant from the National Institutes of Health (DP5OD023064). The authors report no conflicts of interest.

He has observed that social isolation has caused trauma and depression in some children. He said it is too early to know the long-term effects of stay-at-home orders and other pandemic restrictions, but patterns will likely become clearer in a year or so as children seek help from mental health professionals. Chaudhry said children in vulnerable, economically precarious environments face the greatest academic and emotional challenges, since parents are often focused more on survival and paying bills.

Cirenia said she understands her children are growing up and need more space. But for now, the garage is all she can offer them.
