he Hemet/San Jacinto Student of the Month program recently recognized seven local high school seniors for demonstrating character, integrity, love of learning, involvement in school activities, athletics and community service. Students were nominated by teachers or other school personnel for making a difference in their home, school and community.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic limitations for public gatherings, the event was held virtually on March 11. About 60 participants logged onto the Zoom meeting where students shared their stories and sponsors and administrators offered their support.

Program founder and meeting facilitator Karena Zermeno also represented one of the sponsors, Altura Credit Union.

Backpacks filled with gifts, a plaque, certificates of recognition and much more were donated by the program’s sponsors and will

be delivered to each recipient. The students were given the opportunity to thank their families and school staff who have supported them and helped them plan their future life goals.

March’s students of the month from Hemet Unified School District schools were Yenifer Aparicio Galindo, Byron Gonzalez, Charlotte Halliday, Devon Martin and Christopher Williams. San Jacinto Unified students were Destiny McKenna and Yailene Perez.

In his opening prayer, San Jacinto Assembly of God Pastor Jeff Johnson reminded everyone that a year ago students were put on a new path they had to learn to navigate in a new way. This was the last monthly meeting of the school year and a Student of the Year celebration to announce scholarship winners from all those previously honored is being planned.

West Valley’s Yenifer Aparicio Galindo was nominated by her Spanish teacher, Antonio Ramos.

She aspires to be a pediatric nurse.

Principal Shannyn Cahoon said in talking to all the senior students,

she has noted a sense of maturity and growth and Yenifer is no exception.

“I’m proud of all of our students and how they have adapted to everything,” she said.

Byron Gonzalez is a standout student at Western Center Academy and was nominated by his Academic Decathlon Coach Rex McDonald. He said Byron received overall high marks as the team’s leader and has a 4.8 GPA with 10 college courses and 11 AP courses to his credit.

“He has been able to create a culture of inclusion and of kindness and has the ability to work through adversity and find those people that are in need and to be a person of support to them,” Executive Director and Principal Paul Bailey said. “It’s pretty incredible to see some of the things that he’s been able to do and the impact that he’s had in building lasting memories for everyone at our school site.”

he Soboba Tribal Member Employment Development Training Program was launched in 2014 and has been successful in meeting its goal of preparing workers to follow their career choice. By investing in its people, the Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians has been able to build a productive workforce that contributes to the social and economic livelihood of its Tribal community.

Gaining valuable experience in a field of interest was the basis behind the establishment of the training program. More than 20 Tribal Members have completed the annual program since it has begun.

This year, four Tribal Members have been placed and are receiving onthe-job training at various departments at the Soboba Reservation and one is pending placement.

Emma Arres is a college student who was seeking real-life work experience. She has worked in nonpaid internships and various jobs on campus but nothing outside of school. She applied for the development program because she saw it as a great opportunity to learn more about Human Resources which is the department where she was assigned. However, she is also invited

to join Soboba Tribal Environmental Department staff when they conduct field work.

“My majors are business administration and environmental science so I thought those would best fit my potential career choice and give me an idea where I want to work after college,” Arres said. “As of right now, I am being trained in the hiring process. I really enjoy what I am doing

and who I am working with.”

While attending college and serving an internship, Arres is working about 12 hours a week at her HR position but expects to devote more hours to it once the spring semester ends.

Ajay Parcero has been working with the Soboba Parks and Recreation Department at its Sports Complex. He enjoys working at the baseball fields there as he grew up playing the game.

“I am an active person and I prefer working outside versus an office job,” he said. “Every day, I learn little tips and tricks from the older guys, so every day is something new with them even if it’s as small as turning off a certain drain.”

With an eventual career goal of becoming a firefighter, whether at the Soboba Fire Station or elsewhere, Parcero said he is learning valuable lessons he can take to any future job. With this being his first job, he hopes to learn the value of hard work and be able to teach others about his job and experience.

Loovi Herrera chose to participate in the program to get hands-on experience in tribal administration.

She finds the program to be beneficial and is glad it was established.

She is working at Soboba’s Higher Education/Sponsorship Department.

“It helps me build on various skills within my daily duties such as clerical work, event planning, oversight of social media accounts, weekly meetings with Tribal Members and sponsorship vendors and assisting other departments as needed,” Herrera said. “Working with (Higher Education Coordinator) Andrew Vallejos has helped me to realize the type of work ethic I hope to develop because his is impeccable.”

She is taking advantage of all opportunities this program offers and looks forward to helping give back to the community.

“Obtaining this work experience will benefit me in the future because I know that whatever career path I choose there will be an avenue to bring that knowledge and experience back to benefit the tribe,” Herrera said. “I am currently a parttime employee, but I do volunteer extra hours each week just to make sure everything is taken care of.”

Alex Vallejo stays busy working at Soboba’s Public Works Department which covers many areas of service to the reservation including

Each staff member takes their role as a critical responsibility to the lifestyle of all those who live, work and visit the reservation.

“I want to expand my future career with a heavy equipment certification and with this position I will be able to learn from those who currently operate the equipment and hopefully get some time operating it myself,” Vallejo said. “I’ve had the opportunity to work with the water department. I like what they do, and it has sparked my interest in becoming certified in what the Tribe needs me to do to make sure we have clean water.”

He looks forward to getting more practice on heavy equipment and learning best practices when using the different apparatus. He wants to learn more about the reservation and where important landmarks are such as water wells, tanks and emergency shut offs.

To support and monitor tribal employment, the Human Resources Department assists each placing department in identifying and addressing any needs and tracks the Tribal Member’s progress during their 12 months of training, working approximately 20 to 25 hours per week.

“We contact the department and the program participants monthly to monitor progress,” Employee Relations Manager Lynn Saenz said.

“We assist the Tribal Member in learning as many new skills as possible throughout the duration of their assignment. Part of supporting the Tribal Member is working with each of them to identify lessons learned and helping them plan for their next steps after the assignment ends.”

An Individual Work Plan (IWP) is created for each program participant. It includes specific areas in which the department agrees to train them, special duties and tasks to be learned and what knowledge the Tribal Member should have attained once tasks or training have been provided.

“We oversee all elements of this program and serve as the point of communication,” Saenz said. “From initial evaluations to career aptitude assessments and helping Tribal Members build a professional resume, we are with them every step of the way. We also coordinate with the Higher Education Coordinator on any vocational or college-related courses and/or programs that will benefit the participants that are eligible for reimbursement under the Tribal Higher Education Program.”

or the second time this month, American Airlines announced it is adding more new service from Ontario International Airport (ONT), a nonstop flight to North Carolina's Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT) beginning in May. The Fort Worth, Texas-based carrier is already selling tickets for the daily flights from the Inland Empire to Charlotte, a prominent hub in the American's system and gateway to the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast regions.

Service on the new seasonal route begins May 6, continuing through August 16, with the ONT departure scheduled for 9:45 p.m.

A return flight arrives ONT at 8:24 p.m.

American announced earlier this month that it will begin flights

twice a day between ONT and Chicago's O'Hare International Airport in August. The carrier also flies to Phoenix and Dallas-Fort Worth from Terminal 4 at ONT. "We are enormously grateful to American Airlines for showing such confidence in Ontario," said Mark Thorpe, chief executive officer of the Ontario International Airport Authority (OIAA). "We have worked hard throughout the pandemic to be ready for a return to more normal travel routines and, while there is still a way to go, it is encouraging that air carriers are making Ontario a focus of their recovery plans."

American will serve the Charlotte route with Boeing 737-800 aircraft equipped to accommodate 172 passengers with 16 in FirstClass, 30 in Main Cabin Extra and 126 in Main Cabin.

In addition to American, airlines operating at ONT resumed

or initiated new service to five destinations including Atlanta, Chicago (Midway), Houston (Intercontinental and Hobby), Seattle and Mexico City in the second half of 2020 while plans were announced for flights to another nine markets by Spring including Chicago (O'Hare), Honolulu, Las Vegas, Miami, Newark, Orlando, Phoenix, Sacramento and San Francisco. Colombia-based Avianca Airlines will begin service to El Salvador this summer, the first to Central America from the Inland Empire.

Hawaiian Airlines, which will begin service this Wednesday from ONT to Honolulu five days a week, announced it will fly the route seven days a week during the summer.

Ontario airport has been recognized three times since last summer for understanding and meeting the needs of its customers during the pandemic.

been an issue for his family and when the pandemic hit, he took a part-time job at Little Caesars to “step up and help out” because the bills don’t go away just because there is a crisis. Byron has already received many college acceptance letters and plans to major in biology or chemistry and work in the science and health care fields.

Charlotte Halliday of Hamilton High School came to America from Scotland and was able to find a place for herself through band and soccer at school. She wants to become a school therapist after earning her psychology degree.

“While moving onto this next chapter of my life, the idea that one day I will be able to help kids just I have been helped throughout the years keeps me going,” she said. “As a child, I often felt I didn’t fit in and I was very confused by the culture. After coming to Hamilton, I was blessed to be surrounded by teachers who understood that mental health (issues) were to be considered more than teenage angst and that the problems I and many other students are dealing with matter.”

Hemet High School senior Devon Martin was honored for being such a strong self-advocate.

After high school he will be attending RCC and is interested in video game design and development. When students were able to

be on campus in person, Devon was the student leader of the gamer’s club and cooking club.

Hemet High’s Susan Lawler said Devon shared that he had been in a car accident that led to his uncle passing away which piloted him to make changes in his life.

“He shared with me that he’s learned how important it is to stay in contact with his family and friends,” Lawler said. “Devon also has a learning disability and works harder to advocate for his needs, the needs of others and understanding of material. He plans to pay it forward by helping others through difficult times.”

Christopher Williams was Tahquitz High’s choice for March. He has excelled in his school’s Marine Corps Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps, earning the rank of Master Gunnery Sergeant and plans to enlist in the U.S. Marines.

After the death of his mom when he was 11 and moving to Hemet when he started high school, he was grateful to find leadership, love and caring among the military-based program.

“I use everything in my life as a motivation and I’ve learned to expect the unexpected,” he said.

Mountain View honored Destiny McKenna, who has already completed her graduation requirements. Her math teacher, Karin Lee, said Destiny serves as a great example to her peers about what it means to be a scholar. With plans to enter the field of psychology, Destiny hopes to one

day host workshops for young people and continue to better herself.

Yailene Perez was singled out for being an inspirational student and leader at San Jacinto High School, always pushing others to do better. Teaching and mentoring children at her church has led her to pursue a career as a child and adolescent psychiatrist. She has witnessed mental health issues within her own family and among her friends and wants to help others in any way she can.

“I want to help struggling kids find the right way on their path and be a mentor and friend to them as well,” Yailene said. “I’ve seen where childhood pain still affects them, and I want them to have a healthy future.”

Peter Daniels, Director of Community Engagement and Partnerships for Riverside County Office of Education, told the students that although their stories reflected their unique challenges and each possesses their own special and amazing gifts they shared similar qualities such as fearlessness, overcoming obstacles and finding opportunities, resilience, working hard, achievements, responsibility and determination.

Those qualities spell the word forward.

“Keep moving forward, pay it forward and we look forward to learning about your future successes,” Daniels said.

THE LOWRY COLUMN

STRAIT ON

HR1 Voting Proposal Is a Partisan Disgrace RICH LOWRY | COLUMNIST

monsense measure that is now considered tantamount to wielding bully clubs and police dogs.

There may be many problems besetting American democracy, but people turning out to vote isn't one of them. Turnout exploded in the 2018 midterms prior to the pandemic and turnout exploded in 2020 during the pandemic, with both Democrats who availed themselves of early voting and Republicans who voted same day showing up in historic numbers.

In response largely to a non-problem, Democrats want to trample on the prerogatives of states to conduct elections, mandating their electoral priorities throughout the land.

States would have no choice but to accept same-day registrations.

People applying for various government programs or for college would be registered automatically. States couldn't turn away the registrations of 16-year-olds, even though they can't legally vote.

States couldn't require voter ID. They couldn't remove inactive voters from the rolls. They couldn't work with other states to try to find duplicate registrations six months prior to an election.

It would be pandemic-era mailin voting forevermore, with no ID or witness signatures required and ballot-harvesting and drop boxes mandatory everywhere.

Felons could no longer be barred from voting. The federal government would pay to train high-school students how to register people to vote and fund "campus voter coordinators," as well as giving colleges grants to register students.

I

t'd be fitting if Democrats undertook a radical procedural step to pass a radical piece of legislation.

That's what the left is pressuring Senate Democrats to do by eliminating, or significantly curtailing, the filibuster to pass HR1, the sweeping voting proposal that is one of the most execrable bills to pass the House in a very long time.

HR1 would federalize the conduct of elections and codify what were supposed to be emergency voting procedures during the pandemic, in frankly partisan legislation sheathed in the rhetoric of "voting rights."

According to advocates of the bill, anything to tighten up or maintain good practices regarding ballot security is "voter suppression" worthy of the old Jim Crow South.

By this way of thinking, Republican efforts at the state level to, say, reduce the days available for early voting -- Iowa is reducing its early-voting period from 29 days to 20 days -- will disenfranchise millions, never mind that deep blue New York State allows only about a week of early voting.

Voter identification laws, a bogeyman of supporters of HR1, were recommended by a 2005 bipartisan commission jointly led

by Jimmy Carter and James Baker, neither of whom will ever be mistaken for Bull Connor. Not too long ago, it was a feature of big bipartisan voting bills to require states to periodically clean up their voter rolls, another com-

RICH LOWRY | Courtesy photo.

To truly bring home that the states are being divested of powers that go back to the founding of the republic, state legislatures would no longer draw congressional districts; instead the task would be taken up by purportedly independent commissions. The FEC would no longer be bipartisan, and sundry provisions would prohibit or chill unwelcome political activity.

That many Democrats say that the filibuster should fall for this bill is a symptom of the fevered state of the party, which despite holding or winning every elected branch of the federal government has conjured out of nothing a vast conspiracy to stop people from voting that allegedly justifies one of the most blatant federal power grabs in memory.

Early voting isn't going away, but there should be protections against potential abuses and voting on Election Day should be encouraged -- it's the most secure and private, and least error-prone, way to vote.

It's a symptom of what a wrecking ball HR1 is that, in the course of mandating the opposite on all counts, it could kneecap both the states and a longstanding Senate procedure in one fell swoop.

THE FRANKEN COLUMN

C'mon, Cuomo F BOB FRANKEN | COLUMNIST

or those of us in Media World, panic-stricken that we would turn into dust without Donald Trump, particularly since Joe Biden is boring us to death, not to worry. There is always someone in public life to entertain us with cheesy sex.

What's the difference between the pervy lounge lizard whose idea of a seductive come-on line is: "Hi, baby. What's your sign?" and the governor of the fourth most populous state? The answer is not much.

Both make most women feel uncomfortable at being treated like a hooker.

It is downright smarmy when that governor, Andrew Cuomo, asks a 25-year-old subordinate if she'd ever been with an older man, meaning if she'd ever gone to bed with a guy 40 years her senior, like Cuomo is. Given the fact that he's the boss, the explanation that he was just being "playful" doesn't cut it, particularly when he has a long-established reputation for mistreating his staff.

How is it that when a female bigwig runs roughshod over her little-wigs, it's a fatal blow to her ambitions? I'm thinking of Amy Klobuchar, whose presidential candidacy was blown out of the water when word seeped out that she was tough on those under her command, as opposed to Andrew Cuomo the bully.

Bully boy Cuomo is making himself scarce right now, except to appear and insist that he's not going to resign. It ain't going to

happen, he says, and he's given a reasonable chance of weathering his storms. There's also that little thingy where his administration grossly undercounted the number of nursing home deaths at the exact time when Cuomo was burnishing his image as a decisive handler of the COVID-19 plague as it was ravaging his state, certainly compared to that other New Yorker, President Donald Trump, who was making a fool of himself.

Now Cuomo's image is decidedly tarnished.

How the mighty have fallen.

Many in Cuomo's party were promoting him as presidential material, but now many of those same Democrats are calling for his resignation: Bill de Blasio, for instance, the embattled mayor of New York City. (Why is it that in New York, everyone is embattled?) That's hardly a surprise; de Blasio and Cuomo have been waging a ferocious battle of the egos for years.

Other state party heavyweights take a more namby-pamby approach. U.S. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is among those agreeing that the accusations are "troubling," or some such pablum.

Or they recite the mantra that they need to see the results of the independent investigation run by State Attorney General Letitia James.

Cuomo had tried to set up a more insipid probe, but there was such an outcry that he was forced to agree to a more independent, independent investigation.

Meanwhile, Gov. Cuomo is basically out of sight, which is hard to pull off since the pandemic is

A3

Given the #MeToo movement and its well-known unforgiving response to what used to be considered good ol' boy fun, you'd think that we men would have learned a thing or two, particularly someone as prominent as the governor of New York. However, there seems to exist a male hubris where they're too macho to be bothered.

It is really no different than the casting couch that Hollywood producers used.

Whether Andy Cuomo survives as casting couch governor, he will certainly be cut down to size. Perhaps next time some well-known person will think twice before he imposes himself on a female colleague. Then we in fake news biz will have to turn to someone else to get the mindless, smutty stories that we thrive on.

San Jacinto City Council Three Item Meeting RUSTY STRAIT | SENIOR WRITER

C

ompared to Hemet, San Jacinto City Council meetings are brief and to the point. Scheduled from 6:30 to 9:30 PM they were and finished an hour earlier. After the usual preliminaries, invocation and pledge of allegiance Tuesday night’s session was a whiz-bang affair once everybody reported in.

Each council member gave reports on their various committee assignments which is routine at every council meeting. No action is required since they are not on the agenda for action.

With no public input, the meeting proceeded to item one on the agenda; the first item was Adoption of Resolution of Necessity of Acquisition of a Fee Interest in a portion of that Certain Real Property, by Eminent Domain, more particularly described as Assessor Parcel No. 437-190-006, located in the City of San Jacinto, for the Shaver Street Signal Improvement Project, in Riverside County. More aptly described as the intersection of Shave Street and San Jacinto Street.

There was much discussion over the issue since the property owner has not agreed to the offering price for the property. Every council person had something to say, one praising the other for all the efforts, and it came down to the fact that the lawyers would end up either negotiating a deal or possibly going to court. In any event, nothing was resolved except to continue looking into the matter because a stoplight was becoming more necessary every day. There was no mention of previous accidents at the site.

Onto item two: Update 4 to the Local Development Mitigation Fee for funding the preservation of natural ecosystems in accordance with the Western Riverside County Multiple Species Habitat Conservation Plan and LDMF Resolution, all of which sounds like Greek to the taxpayer except it means higher taxes since no fees had been increased since 2004.

They introduced an ordinance titled 21-03 that states: An ordinance of the City Council of the City of San Jacinto to update the local development mitigation fee for funding the preservation of natural ecosystems in accordance with the western Riverside County multiple species habitat conserva-

RUSTY STRAIT | Courtesy photo. tion plan which resulted in the following: A Resolution of the City Council of the City of San Jacinto Amending the Western Riverside County Multiple Species Habitat Conversation Plan Local Development Mitigation Fee Applicable To All Developments in the Plan Area, without specifying what size area that would be.

Came last, Discussion Items: Annual Financial Report, SAS 114 Report and GAS report for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2020. Staff recommends that the City Council receive and file the Annual Financial Report of the City of San Jacinto for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, as well as the SAS 114 Report and the GAS Report. Also, approval of awarded funding to qualified businesses for round 2 of the San Jacinto Small Business Emergency Assistance Grant Program at a cost of $52,500, authorizing the City Manager to administer the individual grants and execute all necessary documents.

Finally, staff recommended and it was approved that the City Council approve and they did, awarded a contract to Kyle Groundwater for professional hydro-geological support services for the development of a new municipal water supply well to be known as “New Grand Well” for an estimated cost of $174,738.

There were no future requests from City Council Staff and the meeting was adjourned. They finished with the ABCs and Numbers of each item; the average citizen often does not understand what is being done and perhaps won’t until they get their tax bills, but then all government agencies at all levels act in the same way.

As they say down home, Get used to it.

Child border crossings surging, straining US facilities BEN FOX AND ELLIOT SPAGAT | AP NEWS

ling them,” Mayorkas said.

Though there have been previous migrant surges, including under Trump, Republicans in Congress say that Biden’s support for new immigration legislation and his decision to allow people to make legal asylum claims have become a magnet for migrants.

At a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing Tuesday, Sen. Jim Inhofe held up a photo of a small crowd of demonstrators in Tijuana, Mexico, wearing matching T-shirts with the words “Biden, Please Let us in” that circulated widely on social media in recent days.

“They’re all coming across the border, they’re coming fast, and they’re wearing Biden T-shirts,” said the Oklahoma Republican.

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy led a delegation of a dozen Republican lawmakers on Monday to the border in Texas and blamed the Biden administration for driving an increase in migrants by actions that include supporting legislation in Congress that would provide a path to citizenship for millions of undocumented people now in the country and halting border wall construction.

“The sad part about all of this is it didn’t have to happen. This crisis was created by the presidential policies of this new administration,” McCarthy said.

Biden pushed back in an interview Tuesday with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos, noting previous surges under Trump and pointing out that his administration has been trying to discourage people from crossing while it works to restore an asylum system undermined by his predecessor. “I heard the other day that they’re coming because they know I’m a nice guy. Yeah, well here’s the deal. They’re not.”

Trump did, in fact, confront a similar surge in 2019 even as he rushed to expand the border

That is our job.”

The number of migrants attempting to cross the border is at the highest level since March 2019, with Mayorkas warning that it is on pace to hit a 20-year peak for the year.

The number of children crossing by themselves, mostly from Central America, appears to be surging in particular in the Rio Grande Valley of South Texas.

The Border Patrol took in 280 there alone on Monday.

The total of 561 unaccompanied minors from Monday offers a snapshot of how quickly conditions have changed along the border. That was up 60% from the daily average in February, one of the officials said. In May 2019, during the last surge, the one-day peak was 370 teens and children.

Children and teens crossing by themselves rose 60% from this January to more than 9,400 in February, according to the most recent statistics released publicly

by U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

The Health and Human Services Department plans to open shelter facilities at Moffett Federal Airfield near San Francisco

and in Pecos, Texas, to handle the flow. It is also looking to expand a facility in Donna, Texas, in the Rio Grande Valley, to hold 2,000.

Also, the Dallas Convention Center is scheduled to begin holding children as early as Wednesday with plans to accommodate up to 3,000. Another makeshift holding center in Midland, Texas, that opened last weekend for 700 children had 485 on Monday.

Some of the increase in adults is due to people who are repeatedly caught after being expelled under the public health order issued last year to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. Other factors include economic upheaval caused by the pandemic and recent hurricanes that worsened living conditions in Central America. Officials say it’s also likely that smugglers have encouraged people to try to cross under the new administration.

Mayorkas said the a surge in the number of children is a challenge for the Border Patrol and other agencies amid the coronavirus pandemic. But he rejected a Trump-era policy of sending them immediately back to Mexico or other countries.

“They are vulnerable children and we have ended the prior administration’s practice of expel-

POLITICAL CARTOONS

surge of migrants on the Southwest border has the Biden administration on the defensive, with the head of Homeland Security acknowledging the depth of the problem Tuesday but insisting it’s under control and saying he won’t revive a Trump-era practice of immediately expelling teens and children.

The number of migrants being stopped at the U.S.-Mexico border has been rising steadily since last April, and the administration is still rapidly expelling most single adults and families under a public health order issued by President Donald Trump at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.

But it is allowing teens and children to stay, at least temporarily, and they have been coming in ever larger numbers.

More than 4,000 migrant children were being held by the Border Patrol custody as of Sunday, including at least 3,000 in custody longer than the 72-hour limit set by a court order, according to a U.S. official. The agency took in an additional 561 on Monday, twice the recent average, according to a second official. Both spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss figures not yet publicly released.

It has put President Joe Biden in a difficult spot, blasted by Republicans for what they view as encouragement to illegal border crossers and by some Democrats over the the prolonged detention of minors. It’s also a challenge to his effort to overhaul the broader Trump policies that sought to curtail both legal and illegal immigration.

“The situation at the southwest border is difficult,” Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas conceded Tuesday in his most extensive remarks to date

wall system along the border and forced people seeking asylum to do so in Central America or remain in Mexico. A year earlier he forcibly separated migrant children from their families as part of a zero-tolerance campaign that became one of the most significant political challenges of his administration.

The Biden administration is allowing migrants who are under 18 years old and cross by themselves to remain in the country while the government decides whether they have a legal claim to residency, either under asylum law or for some other reason.

Mayorkas noted that 80% of the minors, most of whom are from the three Northern Triangle countries of Central America, have relatives in the U.S. and 40% have a parent. “These are children being reunited with their families who will care for them,” he said.

The Biden administration last week ended a Trump policy that made relatives reluctant to contact HHS to retrieve children for fear of being deported themselves.

Besides setting up new temporary facilities to house migrant children, it is also backing aid to Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador to try to stem the flow of migrants at the source.

Mayorkas took swipes at the previous administration for dismantling an asylum system that would have enabled a more “orderly” immigration system, cutting aid to Central America and failing to vaccinate Border Patrol agents.

Also, he said the Biden administration is working to make the asylum process shorter and to make it possible to petition from an applicant’s home country rather than make a dangerous and uncertain journey. “We have no illusions about how hard it is,” he said, “and we know it will take time.”

LOSEY CASE NUMBER: PRMC2100133 To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both of MAUREEN E. LOSEY. A Petition for Probate has been filed by DEBRA LOSEY in the Superior Court of California, County of Riverside. The Petition for Probate requests that DEBRA LOSEY be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent. The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.)

The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority. A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows: Date: 3/26/2021 Time: 8:30AM Dept. T1. Address of Court: 41002 COUNTY CENTER DRIVE, SUITE 100, TEMECULA, CA 92591. Per COVID-19, all appearances are being held telephonically. To appear, please call 1-844621-3956 (toll free) or 1-213-306-3065 and enter meeting number 288212024. If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney. If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law. You may examine the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk. KEVIN R. BROWN ATTORNEY AT LAW: 41555 EAST FLORIDA AVENUE, SUITE H HEMET, CA 92544.

TOP 5 movies of the week

HSJC | Staff Writers

Welcome to our top 5 movies! Stay home safe and enjoy some of our movie suggestions!

MICHAEL BAY

1. The Rock (1996) A mild-mannered chemist and an ex-con must lead the counterstrike when a rogue group of military men, led by a renegade general, threaten a nerve gas attack from Alcatraz against San Francisco.

2. The Island (2005) A man living in a futuristic sterile colony begins to question his circumscribed existence when his friend is chosen to go to the Island, the last uncontaminated place on earth.

3. Transformers (2007) An ancient struggle between two Cybertronian races, the heroic Autobots and the evil Decepticons, comes to Earth, with a clue to the ultimate power held by a teenager.

CRYPTOCURRENCY TECHNOLOGY AUCTION: “Everydays — The First 5000 Days” is a collage of all the images that the artist known as Beeple has been posting online each day since 2007. | Via Christie's

What’s this craze for ‘NFTs’ all about, anyway?

KELVIN CHAN | AP NEWS

A

digital art piece, tweaked using cryptocurrency technology to make it one-of-a-kind, sold at auction this week for nearly $70 million. That transaction made global headlines and buoyed a l re a d y - mu s h ro o m i n g interest in these kinds of digital objects — known as non-fungible tokens, or NFTs — that have captured the attention of artists and collectors alike.

A NON-WHAT TOKEN? In economics jargon, a fungible token is an asset that can be exchanged on a one-for-one basis.

Think of dollars or bitcoins — each one has the exact same value and can be traded freely. A non-fungible object, by contrast, has its own distinct value, like an old house or a classic car.

Cross this notion with cryptocurrency technology known as the blockchain and you get NFTs. These are effectively digital certificates of authen-

ticity that can be attached to digital art or, well, pretty much anything else that comes in digital form — audio files, video clips, animated stickers, this article you’re reading.

NFTs confirm an item’s ownership by recording the details on a digital ledger known as a blockchain, which is public and stored on computers across the internet, making it effectively impossible to lose or destroy.

At the moment, these tokens are white-hot in the collecting world, where they’re being used to solve a problem central to digital collectibles: how to claim ownership of something that can be easily and endlessly duplicated.

I STILL DON’T GET IT. CAN’T ANYONE JUST COPY DIGITAL STUFF OFF THE INTERNET? Sure, anyone can download a copy of Beeple’s art from his social media feed, print it out, and hang it on the wall.

Just like you can take a photo of the Mona Lisa

in the Louvre or buy a print from the museum gift shop. But that doesn’t mean you own those original artworks.

One purpose of NFTs is that they can be used to trace an object’s digital provenance, allowing a select few to prove ownership. In the broader picture, it’s a way to create scarcity -- albeit artificial — so that you can sell something for higher prices thanks to its scarcity.

“All the time, money and effort you spend in your digital life, you can create value for that,” said Chicago fund manager Andrew Steinwold, who started an NFT fund in 2019. “You have property rights in the physical world. Why don’t we have property rights in the digital world?”

Some NFT issuers give full copyrights to the buyer, though others do not.

SO WHAT’S A BEEPLE? Beeple is an American digital artist based in South Carolina whose real name is Mike Win-

4. Armageddon (1998) After discovering that an asteroid the size of Texas is going to impact Earth in less than a month, NASA recruits a misfit team of deep-core drillers to save the planet.

kelmann. He’s been creating digital sketches using 3D tools on a daily basis for the past 13 years. Auction house Christie’s calls his work “abstract, fantastical, grotesque or absurd.” He has 1.9 million followers on Instagram.

In December, the first extensive auction of his art brought in $3.5 million, an eye-catching amount that was surpassed by this week’s record-shattering sale of his collage “Everydays: The First 5,000 Days” for nearly $70 million, paid in a digital currency known as Ethereum.

5. Bad Boys (1995) Two hip detectives protect a witness to a murder while investigating a case of stolen heroin from the evidence storage room from their police precinct.

Album Releases

SO WHO ELSE IS SELLING NFTs?

FRIDAY, MAR. 19, 2021

William Shatner of “Star Trek” fame sold 90,000 virtual trading cards last year for $1 each. Electronic musician Grimes sold $6 million worth of her digital art last month, including a video clip featuring winged cherubs floating in pastel dreamscapes that went for $389,000.

he increased time spent at home during the pandemic has resulted in many people deciding to tackle home renovation projects.

In fact, the Leading Indicator of Remodeling Activity (LIRA) projects the remodeling industry will be even stronger in 2021, up 3.8% compared to 2020.

During the pandemic, homeowners have fixed up or added on decks, updated landscaping and installed new roofs, among other projects. According to HomeAdvisor’s latest annual State of Home Spending report, the number one completed project was interior painting – 35% of households painted in 2020, making a visual impact with a low investment.

where to start, check out the results of a national survey by Erie Insurance, conducted prior to the pandemic, which revealed what homeowners don’t have, but wish they did.

Here are the top five: 1. Walk-in pantry: This topped the list with just under a third of respondents (30%) saying they wish they had one. Kitchen renovations are typically on wish lists, and Houzz reported that demand for kitchen remodelers was up 40% in June 2020 compared to the year prior.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH Can Mushroom Microdose Help With Depression?

By Keith Roach, M.D. DEAR DR. ROACH: I am battling depression and have a question about psilocybin. I stopped taking Effexor for my depression because I did not like the side effects. I also tried SAM-e, which had only a small effect. So, for the past three months I have been trying cognitive behavioral therapy, using certain tactics.

I’ve cut back my days of work and avoid all news when not on the job. I stringently avoid social media. I don’t put myself into situations that I know will upset me. I am also limiting my alcohol consumption. Lately I’ve been reading about how microdosing the psilocybe mushroom can elevate or change moods for the better.

I would like to know your opinion on the use of psilocybin for depression. It seems to be gaining traction, but my fear is that it can bring on degrees of psychosis. -- S.M. ANSWER: I found two studies on psilocybin, a naturally occurring chemical in 200 or so species of mushrooms, especially those of the genus psilocybe. One study from 2016 was in 29 people with cancer, and anxiety and depression: 60%-80% had “clinically significant reductions in depression or anxiety.”

Another study (also from 2016) treated 12 patients with treatment-resistant depression with two doses of psilocybin, and their depression scores were reduced by more than half at five weeks. All 12 patients had adverse effects, usually mild, such as headache, nausea or confusion. Two patients had paranoia. All adverse effects lasted less than a day.

While I am optimistic that this might lead to an additional option for therapy, these are very small studies. Further, the authors of the second study note “patients have taken pharmaceutical grade compounds of known strength and purity, under the supervision of trained therapists.” The authors and research institution “cannot advise on the procurement of illegal psychoactive substances, nor can we recommend self-medication.” I can’t emphasize that enough.

DEAR DR. ROACH: Someone I know, who is a nurse, mentioned to me that she had Lyme disease about 15 years ago.

She said her doctor at the time told her that if she gets it again, she will die. Is this true? I would have thought some immunity would be gained once you have it. She is completely healed and said she has no health issues associated with it. -- D.S. ANSWER: Lyme disease is caused by the bacteria Borrelia burgdorferi, and is spread by the deer tick. There are many manifestations of Lyme disease, including rash, many nonspecific symptoms, and late symptoms such as arthritis.

Death from Lyme disease is rare, and is usually a result of carditis, which is heart inflammation. This happens in about 1% of cases of Lyme disease. There were nine cases of fatal Lyme carditis reported between 1985 and 2018.

People who are treated early for Lyme disease, such as those get the classic bull’s-eye rash, do not get immunity to Lyme. However, people who have had Lyme long enough to develop arthritis do develop some resistance to future episodes. Unfortunately, we are still at least several years away from a Lyme vaccine.

I could find nothing to support a significant risk of death from people who get Lyme disease a second (or subsequent) time, so I think you can reassure your friend.

Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual questions, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Readers may email questions to ToYourGoodHealth@med.cornell.edu.

REMAKING HEALTH CARE

This latest under-the-radar program could push Medicare deeper into private hands TRUDY LIEBERMAN | COLUMNIST

R

ight before Christmas The Commonwealth Fund in New York City issued a worrisome report aimed particularly at the 38 million beneficiaries who are in the so-called traditional Medicare fee-for-service program, not the heavily advertised Medicare Advantage managed care plans.

The Fund* explained that the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) had just unveiled the Geographic Contracting model, or “Geo,” a wonky proposal meaning that beneficiaries in traditional Medicare in 10 metro regions across the country, “will be required to enroll” in what’s being called a “direct contracting entity.” That entity, which could be a physician group, insurance company, managed care organization, or accountable care organization, would deliver all the care for those in the plan and receive one payment from the government for giving that care. The goal is to boost quality and lower costs.

It would work sort of like Medicare managed care does now, but unlike people in Medicare managed care who have chosen to be in that program, beneficiaries who live in one of those selected regions would be required to choose one of these new entities in order to receive any Medicare benefits at all. That would be the first time in the history of the program that beneficiaries would be forced into any kind of new care arrangement.

This proposal, The Commonwealth Fund report said, is “one of the most significant changes

to the way Medicare beneficiaries receive health care since managed care was introduced into Medicare in the 1970s,” adding the model was “raising critical questions particularly among beneficiary groups.” Perhaps due to the wonky nature of the discussion, the proposed change has generated almost no media coverage although it would upend the health insurance for millions of Americans. CMS is scheduled to start testing the new program in 2022.

At the beginning of March Elizabeth Fowler, one of the authors of the report, started a new job at the CMS office that will be in charge of creating and implementing the new model. That same day the agency announced that the model, which was supposed to begin taking applications for becoming a “direct contracting entity,” was now “currently under review,” meaning that tweaks or deeper changes from the new Biden administration might be in the works. That, of course, gives journalists more time to investigate the plan and explain it to the millions of beneficiaries who would be affected, and perhaps generate a robust discussion about the consequences of being forced into managed care. Private business interests are also keeping an eye on the development of the new Medicare model as well, perhaps eyeing a new source of profits. “I’m hearing more and more about industry interest and investment in this model,” said David Lipschutz, associate director of the Center for Medicare Advocacy. “Why are investors interested in this?”

“This is the privatization of traditional Medicare over time, turn-

Archer noted that “many government and independent analyses of Medicare Advantage plans show that people who need complex care tend to leave them in disproportionately higher rates.” Unlike Medicare Advantage plans, however, which include many HMOs, all the Geo plans are supposed to work like PPOs, which allow members to go out of network for care, said Gretchen Jacobson, one of the authors of the Commonwealth Fund report.

But there are enough similarities between Medicare Advantage plans and this new program to raise real concerns. Three years ago, the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services’ Office of the Inspector General released a report questioning whether people in Medicare Advantage plans — managed care — were getting the benefits they were entitled to.

The IG found that over two-year period, 75% of the denials of care filed by beneficiaries were overturned on appeal, indicating that some “beneficiaries and providers were initially denied services and payments that should have been provided.” The IG’s Office said this was “especially concerning” because beneficiaries and providers “rarely used the appeals process.” Furthermore, the report noted that Medicare’s own audits

s a very young child I watched each day as my father left for work and I happily understood that my dad was an engineer. Of course, my very young brain told me that he was the engineer of —what else? A train! How cool is that?! It wasn’t until he left for Cape Canaveral to work with the space program that I found out he was an electrical engineer.

I wasn’t sure what that was but knew enough that I wasn’t going to be riding on a train any time soon!

This example may be humorous but what’s happening to accuracy, reality, and truth in our society isn’t. It looks like real truth, as we have known it, is deceased - gone, kaputt. In its place we now have what is called “your truth.” It’s actually an artificial substitute for someone’s personal opinion. This is becoming popular with our new culture as people can contradict your opinion but not “your truth.” It’s kinda like private property - I have my own truth like I have my own car. The problem is, what happens when “your truth” isn’t truth at all?

We seem to be at a weird time in American history, one in which truth and ac-

curacy are in fact frowned upon by many - a time in which real truth is often the new hate speech - which can be a huge disaster for our culture! For those of you who know your history, you know that non-truth has brought down many a nation! And it all starts out so “innocently” — taking down ‘bad’ statues, banning books & movies deemed troublesome, and challenging long held societal norms.

Just this past week, one morning news source headlined this: “School pushes students to stop saying “Mom & Dad.” Sadly, a school in New York is advising their students to avoid harmful language: so terms such as “boys & girls” - “ladies & gentlemen” and “mom & dad” are being replaced with “people, folks or grownups.” Pretty crazy, isn’t it?!

Like I don’t have a mom!

The question is, of course - are these people right?

Are these “new truths” good?Something we need to follow? Absolutely not!

Our books, movies, phrases, personal opinions, and national history are treasured and unique to each generation and people group! Are they perfect? No more perfect than the people whose stories they tell.

But as George Orwell so noted: “The most effective

way to destroy people is to deny and obliterate their own understanding of their history.” And if I could add to that extremely accurate quote I would say that putting our long-held ideologies and moral beliefs on the chopping block also destroy people!

The Bible tells us in I John 4:6 that there are two spirits at work in our world; the Spirit of Truth and the spirit of deception. We choose which one we want to follow. John Adams, the second President of the United States gave us this insightful quote as an incentive to follow truth and morality: “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”

Let’s not be deceived one spirit leads to truth and liberty, the other to oppression and treachery. As Christ-followers we need to understand that if we allow ourselves to unify with “un-truths” and abandon our principles, all we have left is compromise. But in this present climate, more and more people hate hearing truth. Harry S. Truman once said, “I never gave anybody hell. I just told the truth and they thought it was hell.” Those lines could have been written today!

John 8:32 tells us if we embrace the truth it will re-

I love how Michel de Montaigne viewed this matter: “I tell the truth, not as much as I would like to, but as much as I dare. And I dare more and more as I grow older.” Score one for old guys!

That’s one great truth I always like to tell about The Truth. Jesus Christ is The Way, The Truth and The Life! No one comes to the Father except through union with Him. This is the ultimate truth which leads us to eternal life with Almighty God. It’s like the heavenly American Express card: Don’t leave earth without Him! As Rick Warren says, “Standing courageously for an unpopular opinion isn’t easy, but the rewards of standing courageously for the truth will last forever.”

FAITH IN HARD TIMES

Finding a Priceless Pearl in a Sea of Pandemic Problems

DEREK ADAMS | CONTRIBUTED

R

ay Welch of Orange, California, found a “priceless pearl” nearly two decades ago.

Since then, his life has never been the same.

He left behind a life in law enforcement as a frequent SWAT-team negotiator and found peace after discovering truths about God and began drawing close to Him. While Welch always sought to serve others, “the opportunity of serving God has had no comparison,” he said.

Welch is not alone. In this time of pandemic when many have lost the things they thought were of the highest value, some have made their spirituality a priority. They feel like the merchant in an ancient parable who found a pearl of such great worth that he sold everything he had to obtain it.

“Have You Found a ‘Pearl of High Value’?” is the theme of a global virtual event to which Jehovah’s Witnesses are inviting the community in March. In the Gospel account, Jesus Christ used the parable of the pearl to illustrate the motivating value of the truth about God’s Kingdom, the solution to mankind’s problems.

This free 30-minute program unlocks the meaning of that parable, explaining what the Kingdom of the heavens is and how that valuable knowledge can help us attain peace and a sense of security even now.

“The pandemic changed our lives within weeks, bringing the economic, educational, and social systems to their knees,” said Robert Hendriks, U.S. spokesman for Jehovah”s Witnesses.

“What has not changed is spirituality and its powerful effect on people”s lives.”

That proved true for Kaya

Madison, who was raised Catholic but became agnostic when she couldn’t find answers to the myriad of questions she had about God. !I was really searching,” she said.

Early in the pandemic, a coworker prompted the 23-year-old college student from San Diego to read an article about the four horsemen of the Apocalypse on jw.org, the official website of Jehovah”s Witnesses. As an aspiring writer who loved to pen the mythological and magical, Madison found the horsemen intriguing—from the charging white horse with its royal rider to the pale sickly horse saddled by a skeleton.

“I wanted my questions answered,” said Madison who soon started studying the Bible with Witnesses every morning at 8 a.m. via videoconference. Bible prophecy came to life for her, revealing a brighter fu-

ture. “I’m just happier than I’ve ever been in my life,” she said.

She was baptized as one of Jehovah’s Witnesses in August 2020. Now instead of writing about myths and magic, she plans to write about something spiritual— the Biblical hope of a global paradise.

Sal Alcaraz of Riverside also found Bible truths to be of high value.

When Sal graduated high school in 2010, his athletic talent brought him several university offers, including UCLA. He even received an invitation to play soccer in Europe.

The weekend before leaving for college, Sal was moved by a life-changing experience. “I was able to attend an international convention of Jehovah’s Witnesses,” said Sal. “The genuine love the Witnesses of

different countries had for each other was impressive.

What affected me most, though, was on the last day of the program. They interviewed young ones my age who had turned down opportunities similar to mine to pursue spiritual things. I distinctly remember how genuinely happy they looked, despite what they had given up. I realized it was that happiness that I truly wanted.”

have found “widespread and persistent performance problems related to denials of care and payment.” You won’t find that information in any of the Joe Namath ads luring more Americans to Medicare Advantage plans on TV. Jacobson told me the proposed Geo model “is relatively complicated, and someone might not know they’re in one.” If people in selected regions don’t sign up for a plan as required, Medicare will simply pick a plan for them, where they will quickly learn what managed care style of cost control is all about — for example, obtaining prior authorization for services and undergoing reviews to evaluate the medical necessity of care before it’s delivered.

Such moves could lower costs, and it’s no secret that the Medicare program needs to be shored up financially as more baby boomers become eligible for benefits. The latest Medicare Boards of Trustees report said the Medicare Part A trust fund — which pays the hospital bills for all beneficiaries, including those in both managed care plans and traditional Medicare — will be able to pay only partial benefits beginning in 2026. Although the trustees have been making similar predictions for years, there has yet to be a robust public discussion of how to improve the health of the trust fund. Will it come from increasing the payroll tax, or from reducing the costs of hospital and doctor services, which are the biggest drivers of Medicare’s escalating costs? Or by negotiating lower prices

Julia Marie Beeson

Julia Marie Beeson, 22, passed away on Thursday, March 11, 2021. She was born on Thursday, September 10, 1998 in Upland, California. Julia attended San Jacinto High School where she excelled in wood working and school spirit. Julia was the San Jacinto High School mascot during her high school years and even won competitions as the Tiger mascot. She also participated in and won many county fairs and also the California State fair in 2015 with her amazing wood works. Julia had an interest in fun, decorative socks and loved to collect them. In her spare time, Julia loved going to the beach and spending time with friends and family. Julia was full of life and very compassionate. Julia always helped anyone in need and was kind to everyone.

Julia will be missed immensely by her friends and family. She is survived by her parents, David and Sheryl Beeson, her brother, Brandon (Jaque) Beeson, her sister, Cassandra (Alan) Norman, three nieces, two nephews, and many friends.

A memorial service will be held on Thursday, March 25, 2021 at 10:00AM at Miller-Jones Mortuary located at 1501 W. Florida Ave, Hemet, CA 92543. In lieu flowers, the family requests that donations be made in Julia’s name to the Ramona Humane Society, 690 Humane Way, San Jacinto, CA 92582, 951-654-8002. ramonahumanesociety.org

found in the Bible. Despite facing challenges related to the pandemic, he is experiencing the genuine happiness he was looking for.

Sal admitted, “If I would have known that this is what my life was going to be like, it would have been an even easier choice back then. I don’t even consider the sacrifices I made as sacrifices since they don’t compare to the value of the pearl that I have found.”

The presentation about the valuable pearl will be held on select dates during the first three weeks of March through local congregations of Jehovah’s Witnesses. It preludes another event that the Witnesses are also inviting people to attend: the annual obser-

vance of the Memorial of Jesus Christ$s death on March 27.

“We invite anyone searching for peace, security, comfort and hope to attend,” Hendriks said.

“This special talk and the Memorial of Jesus Christ$s death will show people how they can obtain something priceless that will make their lives better, not only now, but also in the future, even forever.”

Due to the pandemic, congregations around the world will host both events virtually. There are no fees to attend, and no registration is required.

Over the years Medicare managed care was supposed to lower those costs for the government’s program.

Whether they’ve done that is open to serious dispute.

The Medicare Payment Advisory Commission (MedPac), an independent government agency that advises Congress, showed that in 2009, the government was spending nearly 18% more to provide care for seniors in managed care organizations than those in the traditional program.

The Affordable Care Act put a stop to extremely high increases for Medicare Advantage plans until 2017 when the overpayments began to rise again. “The health plans have healthier than average patients, yet get paid amounts that are calculated for average patients and so they are able to pocket the difference,” said Dr. Robert Berenson, a senior fellow at the Urban Institute and a former member of MedPac. In a recent presentation, two MedPac analysts noted that Medicare is paying Medicare Advantage plans 4% more than what it spends on the same beneficiary in a fee-for-service plan, adding that these private Medicare plans “have never yielded aggregate savings to Medicare.”

The major stakeholders, the 63 million beneficiaries in the entire Medicare program, will probably have little to say about this latest Geo experiment and any others likely to come along this year that address the solvency of the trust funds millions of Americans rely on for survival. Business interests with deep pockets and experience profiting from Medicare Advantage

plans, however, will likely have plenty to say.

When it comes to Medicare, the Better Medicare Alliance, an organization that presents itself as a grassroots group to mask its corporate interests, has managed to gin up substantial support for in Congress for higher and higher rate Medicare Advantage increases. Two years ago, the Associated Press found that the Alliance was financed by three of the biggest sellers of Medicare managed care plans: UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, and Humana.

The group is known for organizing networks of seniors across the country to talk about their positive experiences with Medicare Advantage plans.

In 2009 after Barack Obama had moved into the White House, a woman wrote to the president. “I don’t want government-run health care,” she said. “I don’t want socialized medicine. And don’t touch my Medicare!” That woman like millions of other beneficiaries didn’t know the ins and outs of the program they rely on so much or understand that the hospital coverage Medicare provides is social insurance.

That lingering confusion about what the Medicare program is 55 years after it began may well have sown the seeds of its demise long ago. It has certainly made it easier now for new privatization models like Geo to take root and potentially turn every senior into a customer of a privately-run managed care organization.

Sadly, and with heavy hearts, we must say good-bye to our beloved wife, mother, sister, aunt and cousin Judith Lynn Genovese Oltman.

Judy died at the age of 80 from a sudden heart attack after receiving a COVID vaccination.

Judy was born a Christmas baby to Frank Genovese and Margaret Verostko Genovese on December 25, 1940 in South Pasadena. She attended local schools, graduating from South Pasadena High School in 1958 (go Tigers!).

She married the love of her life, David Roebuck Oltman and moved with him to Iowa. After two winters in Iowa they permanently returned to Southern California eventually settling in Hemet Valley and Idyllwild.

Judy held many jobs over the years; working for Consolidated Metals and modeling for their brochures, The Easy-Ad, and John Mittrick Attorney at Law. She founded her own interior-landscaping business, JudyO’s in 1981 running it until her passing. Her deep love of plant design guided JudyO’s and her own house reflects this lifelong pursuit. She grew fig trees, orchids, pothos and many others.

Judy was the elected treasurer for the City of Hemet for 27 years and was a long-standing member of the California Municipal Treasurers Association and the National Treasurers Association, serving on the board of the latter for many years. She saw the city through the 2nd great depression in 2008 by protecting the investment portfolio and not losing a single penny of the city’s money; in fact, she managed to make money for the city!

She was a board member of the Performing Arts Guild Alliance for many years happily helping in any way possible often volunteering family members to serve too! Judy had a natural strong theatrical-type voice and was involved in the Ramona Pageant play for over 15 years. She played the coquette, Margarita, for many years, then took over the role of The Senora. She was involved in many productions with The Ramona Hillside Players making many lifelong friendships.

Judy was a math whiz who could calculate large sums in her head. When shopping, she could tell you exactly how much something would cost, including discounts and tax. She would never let anyone buy anything that did not suit them and was never shy with her opinion – style and class came naturally!

After she and Dave bought a fixer-upper home in the hills, Judy returned to school, earning her interior design certificate from UCR. The family took advantage of her knowledge by enlisting her help with our homes. She had an expertly brilliant eye for color, proportion, and use of space. She was a skillful and accomplished seamstress, making everything from curtains to wedding gowns for her friends and family. She could even invent her own patterns! She and Dave were consummate do-it-yourselfers who honed their creative skills to the point where the house ended up a masterpiece of beauty and classical elegance.

Mostly she will be remembered for her kindness, generosity and hospitality. She and Dave would often host large holiday gatherings that were a source of fun and joy for her family and friends. Their Independence Day swim barbeque party was an especially good time. On such occasions, Judy was famous for her Jacuzzi Manhattans! Three cheers to a life lived in the fullest!

Judy was always planning something and going somewhere domestic or overseas. She and Dave enjoyed their trips to Europe and the United States; whether traveling for business or pleasure, they always ate, drank and were merry! Some of their favorite spots were London, Paris, Florence, Las Vegas and San Francisco. She and Dave were “trade show” king and queen, enjoying PCBC, World of Concrete, and Con Expo, treasurer conferences and Grand Lodge of California. You can bet Judy would find the best restaurants and shopping near or far!

She maintained high but fair standards for herself and her family. She always gave the best advice regarding education, work, money management and life. She possessed a wonderful, clever wit and loved to laugh, especially over family dinners. She always maintained a beautiful appearance that matched her beautiful inside. She was often mistaken for her daughter Kimberly’s sister.

Friends she hadn’t seen in years swore she never aged. Judy had a natural charm and grace that was apparent to all who met her.

Part of what made Judy so special was the fact that she was a math major – enjoying accounting and investment duties but she also had a creative flair – whether interior and plant design, clothing and style – inspirations came fast and easy!

Judy had a cheerful nature, a quick wit and a hearty laugh. As a matter of fact, she laughed all the time – and it was infectious. That is what we really miss the most – her wry sense of humor and that big, hearty laugh. As many of you know, her lively, vibrant energy was so much fun.

Judy is survived by her husband of 63 years, David R. Oltman and her children Kimberly (Rahim), David J. and Darci (Jeffery). Her grandchildren Ashley (Devon), Austin and Alexander (fiancée Sarah). Her honorary granddaughter Jana (Travis). Great-granddaughter Azelia and honorary great-grandson Peyton. Her most beloved baby sister, Marilyn and cousins Kathie, Freddy and Don. Her friends in Idyllwild, Bob and Paula. Her dear friends Robin, Esther and Carolyn (don’t worry girls, I’ll learn to make the Manhattans!) and her colleagues at the City of Hemet.

Judy, thank you from the depths of our beings for your 80 short years of dedicated service and love and some truly amazing memories! You will forever burn in our hearts, lighting us up like hundreds of bright stars in the universe.

There will be a memorial service in the future when COVID is no longer an issue. The family encourages donations to City Of Hope.
