“I was hurt, and I was also grieving for all the people we had lost, and I didn’t want my children to go through that and lose me, too. I went to Soboba Indian Health, got placed in a 5-day detox in the desert and I never looked back. I have been drug-free for 18-1/2 years.”

The mother of four has three grandchildren and said it took her awhile to put her life back together, but she did, and now wants to help others know where to find the resources they might need to start over or get on a healthy path.

ou may not know him, but you are about to hear his story. His name is Preston Christianson. He will be 17 in July (if he lives). This past Saturday, he arose from his sickbed and was surrounded by family, classmates, members of the Hemet Police and Fire Departments; he had an entire high school graduation ceremony performed in the family home. The event was introduced

by Council Member Karlee Meyer (all council members were invited). The ceremony was officiated by a member of the Hemet Unified School Board and Tahquitz High School.

Why is this such an important event? It is important because Preston has been afflicted with a rare form of cancer and may not live to attend with his graduating class this year.

Preston was diagnosed on Christmas Day 2015, at age 10,

of radiation in his abdominal area, where the bulk of his tumors reside. His bone cancer is in his wing and clavicle bones, forehead, spine and lungs.

He was subjected to one clinical trial in New York at MSKCC in 2017 and another clinical trial in New York in September 2021, but the cancer was so widely spread throughout his body, the doctors told his parents that he had only weeks or possibly months to live.

His cancer-riddled body has endured nine surgeries and the cancer returned six times. He is no quitter, and he has fought this menace tooth and toenail, like all those other beautiful children fighting this horrible disease. It is terminal and non-curable.

When he returned from New York this past September, he was on maintenance chemo and his mother was advised in January of this year that it had stopped

elli Hurtado of “Let’s Get Moving Mondays” hosted a Body, Mind & Spirit Wellness Fair at the Soboba Sports Complex on March 13. About 30 vendors, located inside and outside the gymnasium, shared health-related information and items with hundreds of guests who attended throughout the six-hour event.

This is the second fair Hurtado has hosted and said the purpose of the events is to get people out and for them to learn about ways they can promote strong mental, physical and spiritual health in their own lives and with their families. Amid upbeat music played by DJ Mike Nevarez, Hurtado checked in with each vendor.

“I want to bring different things to the people and let them know there is help out there if they need it,” Hurtado said. “Just being outside is healing. My goal for today is for everyone to relax, laugh and have a good time.”

She feels it’s important to give young people productive things to do to keep them away from drugs and alcohol and her personal experience with addiction has made her want to help others avoid it.

“When my older children were little, I was on drugs really bad. My dad finally had enough and told me not to come home and that I couldn’t see my kids anymore. That was my wake-up call,” Hurtado said.

“Students that might otherwise be labeled as ‘at-risk’ youth are now considered ‘at-promise’ scholars because of the dedication and commitment of educators like Elia Sanchez and Jannette Price.”

NEWS BRIEFS MORENO VALLEY

APRIL IS DISTRACTED DRIVING AWARENESS MONTH April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month, and the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department, Moreno Valley Station, will be actively looking for drivers throughout the month who are in violation of the state’s hands-free cell phone law.

“Holding your phone and using it while driving is not only dangerous, but also illegal,” Moreno Valley Sheriff’s Station’s Deputy Jonathan Glass said. “For the safety of your family and others on the road, put the phone away and focus on driving.”

According to the 2021 California Statewide Public Opinion Survey, nearly three out of every four drivers surveyed said that distracted driving because of texting was their biggest safety concern. In 2019, the California Highway Patrol (CHP) issued nearly 20,000 citations during the month of April to drivers for hands-free cell phone law violations.

Under current law, drivers are not allowed to hold a phone or electronic communications device while operating a vehicle. This includes talking, texting, or using an app. Using a handheld cell phone while driving is punishable by a fine.

Violating the hands-free law for a second time within 36 months of a prior conviction for the same offense will result in a point being added to a driver’s record.

If you have an important phone call, text, email, or need to program directions, pull over to a safe parking spot.

Before starting the car, either silence your phone or put it somewhere you can’t reach.

Funding for distracted driving enforcement is provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

ST. PATRICK’S DAY CELEBRATIONS This St. Patrick’s Day, the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department, San Jacinto Station will be on alert for suspected impaired drivers and reminds the community to celebrate the holiday responsibly.

Additional officers will be on patrol March 17 from 6:00 PM to 2:00 AM looking for drivers suspected of driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs. “Have a game plan before you celebrate St. Patrick’s Day,” San Jacinto’s Sheriff Station, Deputy Ray Cortez said. “Designate a sober driver or make other plans to get home safely.”

During the 2019 St. Patrick’s Day holiday period, nearly half of all traffic deaths throughout

the country involved a drunk driver.

The San Jacinto’s Sheriff Station, Deputy Ray Cortez wants to warn the community that alcohol is not the only substance that can cause impairment. Cannabis, prescription medications, over-the-counter drugs, and illegal drugs can all lead to a DUI. If you ever see a suspected drunk driver on the road, call 911. Funding for this program is provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

New IEHP Program Combats Loneliness and Depression IEHP | CONTRIBUTED

I

nland Empire Health Plan (IEHP) has partnered with Pyx Health in a new program to support Members experiencing loneliness, anxiety or depression. The partnership connects 70,000 Members to support services for mental health screenings.

The program began in March and will run through the fall of 2022.

Members who elected to participate were invited to download the Pyx App on their smart phones or tablets, which immediately connects to Pyx-ir, an interactive robot. Pyx-ir will regularly converse, ask wellness questions and connect Members to IEHP services and call centers, depending on need.

The program's services rolled out to English and Spanish speaking Members who receive both Medicare and Medi-Cal benefits (Cal MediConnect Members), as well as Me-

di-Cal Members who are seniors with a disability or have been identified as unable to leave their homes and are at a greater risk for loneliness.

"Isolation and stay-athome orders have tremendously impacted these populations in the last two years," said Anna Edwards, IEHP's Care Management Clinical Director.

"Our partnership with Pyx Health will extend care beyond the health plan's usual business hours and truly meet the Members where they are."

For continuity of care, Pyx Health will provide the health plan with comprehensive reports based on Member screenings to connect Members with additional resources at the plan level. If needed, Members will also have the option to connect with Pyx Health's Compassionate Call Center representatives who will be able to route information and reports to IEHP's Care Management Team.

His mother, Michelle says, “Doctors told us there was nothing else they could

and services by giving them a showcase like these fairs.

One of those is Emma Nevarez of Semi Homemade Momma who creates snackable containers of vegetables and fruits that look as good as they taste. Using the freshest ingredients, she assembles her grab-and-go boxes that sometimes include edible flowers. She started her business about three years ago so she could be a full-time stay-at-home mom to her three children who are 4, 5 and 6 years old. She said they love fruits and vegetables and pretty much everything she makes.

“I developed my own style and it’s therapeutic for me,” Nevarez said. “I started my own blog and post recipes and pictures of healthy foods to encourage others to cook and cook things for their kids.”

Her blog can be found on Instagram @semihomemademomma.

Suvóova Sweet Treats was established in 2020 by Antiana Briones after she began selling her popular sweets at her sister’s Frybread Kitchen pop-up. She said her milk chocolate covered strawberries are a favorite with customers but she’s always trying out new treats such as mini funnel cakes.

Briones is also hosting her own event on April 3 at the Old Soboba Casino parking lot. The Autism Acceptance Market will feature food vendors, face painting and animal balloons, a sensory booth, music, raffles and information booths. It is open to the general public and all are welcome.

Sheila Pico from Pechanga began an Indigenous Wellness Market last August that has been very successful. It supports many creative arts and shares alternative medicine choices such as herbs and teas.

“We need to get back to our roots and use natural things from our ancestors; we can’t have our people depend on clinics,” she said. “Our focus is on healing within and getting to the root cause, not just putting a band-aid on it.”

Pico said the markets have given visitors the opportunity to reconnect and feel the good energy around them.

She said all of that leads to positive results.

“Everything we touch we absorb into our bodies and it all affects our mind and body.

Our body is like a tree. If it is fed the right minerals and food it will grow,” she said.

“Food is medicine and we need to learn the right kinds to eat to help us heal.”

Tiara Rogers from Ribbons of Sovereignty is a personal coach who helps clients get healthy in mind, body and spirit. She created an allergy salve for her son’s eczema that contains all-natural ingredients. She shares the recipe and sells the product because her goal is to help empower others.

“Sovereignty is about ownership and how we can govern ourselves and become empowered,” she said.

“I want to help people bring back sovereignty within themselves.”

Rogers has been teaching health classes for about six years and helps clients find out what they need nutritionally and in other ways to bring balance into their lives.

Anthony Hurtado, Kelli’s nephew, shared an introduction to the Luiseño language, using words that were related to wellness and healing.

Majoring in Public Health and minoring in linguistics at UC, San Diego, he picked a few words to share with attendees.

“Language is part of our identity – that in itself can be very healing,” he said. “You can repeat healing words to visualize, which allows us to manifest it. Language carries a lot of spiritual healing and I try to instill it in others when I get an opportunity to share. I’m not exactly fluent but I’ve been learning from a young age.”

“Now he owns his own destiny,” director and head trainer Dave Trujillo said.

“We can’t hold him back – he’s untouchable.”

The Trujillos opened their club during the pandemic when they saw so many kids needing something to keep them busy.

They started with about 20 members and are approaching 100 and growing. For more information, www. hopscboxingclub.com.

“I like seeing smiles on people’s faces when they eat my cakes,” Escobedo said.

“They’re not extremely sweet and they offer something different.”

Who’s Your 911?

SUSAN BECKETT | DWELLING PLACE CITY CHURCH

Y

ears ago, we had a wonderful family plugged into our church. Mom, dad, and two kids - a son and a daughter.

One day after our Sunday church service, the husband, whom I will call John, approached my husband for prayer. It seems that his business was slowing down and he desperately needed it to pick up and prosper. So Bob prayed with John for his business to thrive.

Months went by and one day we noticed that we had not seen John nor his family for some time. Giving John a buzz, Bob found out that he was so booked up with work that John no longer had time to attend church. He was on the job every Sunday now.

Maybe soon, he said.

Time passed - then one day, there was an early morning call to the police - a local store was being robbed. Bob, being a police chaplain, was called to the scene. It turned out that John’s teenage son was one of three involved in the robbery. When confronted by the police from the outside, they set the place on fire, hoping to distract law enforcement and escape temporarily. But the police had the place pretty much surrounded, so that wouldn’t happen anytime soon. Two of the men finally surrendered and came out, but the third, John’s son - wouldn’t give up and died in the fire.

I remember attending the funeral - most of our congregation showed up and filed by John and his grieving wife and daughter, giving hugs and condolences. Lots of tears. It was a huge trag-

edy. But I couldn’t help but wonder - what if John had kept his family plugged into church? What if his teenage kids had kept attending church and youth events?

What if, what if…?

The Bible tells us in Hebrews 10:25, “Do not forsake (neglect) our meeting together, as some do.” Don’t forsake the gathering…but why? Why is it good for us to be in church? Why is it a good thing to take our children and grands to church?

The verse goes on to say that when we meet, we are to “encourage one another, especially now that the day of His return is drawing near.”

Attending church with other Christ-followers means we exhort one another. We edify and love one another, and we encourage each other. We keep each other accountable and pray for one another. We sing praises to God as one Body and fellowship with other families.

We comfort one another and collectively hear God’s Word preached and taught. Hard to do all that if you’re at Disneyland!

So, what are some of the great reasons people miss Sunday church? Laundry.

Or they stayed up too late the night before watching the Late, Late Movie of the Week. Or perhaps someone was sick. Maybe just not interested. All kinds of stuff, really. These days, if God can get one hour a week out of us, He should be happy because people are busy and we’re all booked up that day. But we’re booked up every day!! It all boils down to our priorities.

So where do we go for our 911s? The horoscope? Oprah Winfrey? gov.com? Dr. Phil?

Friends at the gym? Dr. Fau-

SUSAN BECKETT | Courtesy Photo. ci? CNN? Nothing compares to the wisdom and support we get from our local living body of believers. Nothing!

Here’s a list of the top ten excuses for avoiding church services. If you took these excuses and applied them to eating, this is what it might look like: 10. I was forced to eat as a child.

9. People who eat all the time are hypocrites; they aren’t really hungry.

8. There are so many different kinds of food; I can’t decide what to eat.

7. I used to eat, but I got bored and stopped.

6. I only eat on special occasions, like Christmas and Easter.

5. None of my friends will eat with me.

4. I’ll start eating when I get older.

3. I don’t really have time to eat.

2. I don’t believe that eating does anybody any good.

It’s just a crutch.

And the #1 excuse for not eating…

1. Restaurants and grocery stores are only after your money.

So — Ch _ _ ch. What’s missing?

Riverside County lawmaker’s attempt to end the COVIDbased state of emergency declared by Gov. Gavin Newsom two years ago was defeated today in a party-line state Senate committee vote.

She said Senate President Pro Tem Toni Atkins, D-San Diego, last month finally agreed to calendar her latest measure, Senate Concurrent Resolution 5.

It was heard by the Senate Committee on Governmental Organization, whose four Republican members voted in favor of the proposal, and whose eight Democrat members voted against it, killing the

“It’s time for the state to allow local governments to take the lead and address emergencies locally without the shotgun approach of a statewide emergency,” she continued. “Twen-

ty-nine other states have ended their states of emergency. Once again, California is leading from behind.”

On the advice of state Health and Human Services Secretary Dr. Mark Ghaly, Gov. Gavin Newsom switched gears last month and adopted an “endemic” plan, under which he has rolled back some of the

future cutoff date, meaning the emergency declaration does not have a set timetable.

According to the California Emergency Services Act -- Chapter 7 of the Government Code -- a governor is required to proclaim that a state of emergency is over “at the earliest possible date that conditions warrant.”

O

n March 9th, the House passed an omnibus appropriations package for Fiscal Year 2022 that will bring federal funding directly to California’s 36thDistrict.

The package includes $10 million secured by Congressman Raul Ruiz, M.D. (CA-36) to expand access to health care, bring clean water to the Eastern Coachella Valley, and drive economic growth in the 36th District.

“I am thrilled to see the House pass the $10 million in federal funding that I secured to bring new health care resources to Blythe, economic development to San Jacinto, infrastructure improvements to the Pass Area, and clean drinking water access to the Eastern Coachella Valley,” said Dr. Ruiz. “In addition, I’m thrilled to see the House pass funding that’ll launch an Army Corps of Engineers project at the Salton Sea, which will strengthen our all-hands-on-deck approach to this environmental and public health crisis.

Congressman Raul Ruiz, M.D. (CA-36). | Photo source: Wikipedia.

Once signed into law, this funding will bring incredible value to our communities, grow our local economy, and make a positive difference in the lives of my constituents.”

“Expansion and widening of Pennsylvania Avenue is a critical project for Beaumont and the Pass Area. These improvements will enhance access and help alleviate traffic congestion along I-10,” said Todd Parton, Beaumont City Manager. “This would not be possible without the tireless efforts of Congressman Ruiz. With his assistance, one of the area’s most vital retail centers will

continue to flourish while much needed traffic relief is provided to area residents. Additionally, Beaumont will be able to reallocate our local dollars to other critical projects that benefit our community as well as the region.”

“We are excited to learn the House of Representatives will pass an appropriations packaged that includes funding for our water reservoir project.

Constructing this water reservoir will secure the continued supply of reliable, clean, and safe drinking water and fire flow protection for our residents,” said Mayor Dale Reynolds of the City of Blythe. “The City appreciates Congressman Ruiz and the House Appropriations Committee for supporting this much needed water infrastructure project for the City of Blythe.”

“Clinicas de Salud del Pueblo would like to thank Congressman Ruiz and the House Appropriations Committee for providing $1M in support of the renovation and expansion of our primary care Health Clinic in Blythe,” said

Yvonne Bell, President and CEO of Clinicas de Salud del Pueblo. The new facility will expand much needed access to health care for the low-income and remote community of Blythe.

The renovation will allow us to serve more patients with the addition of 11 new exam rooms as well as newly added dental and integrated behavioral health services.”

“We are grateful of Congressman Ruiz’s partnership with CVWD and for his leadership in securing federal funding to support the Eastern Coachella Valley community,” said Coachella Valley Water District Board Vice President Cástulo R. Estrada.

“These funds continue to advance CVWD’s priorities and initiatives in communities affected by the lack of water availability.

Improvements to our potable system in the Eastern Coachella Valley promotes economic development opportunities that benefit the community and also helps spur the development of quality affordable housing.

CVWD will continue to partner with Congressman

Ruiz and is dedicated to improving the living conditions of the communities we serve.”

“The Coachella Valley Housing Coalition, a 39 year old nonprofit community development corporation, is pleased to learn of the funding approval of our Community Project grant application through Congressman Dr. Raul Ruiz’s recommendation to the Appropriations Committee,” said Pedro S. G. Rodriguez, Executive Director of the Coachella Valley Housing Coalition. “The $500,000 in funding will provide much needed financing for renovations to our headquarters building in Indio, CA. The renovations will allow the agency to remain in Indio and continue its successful mission of improving the living conditions of low-income individuals and families by constructing and operating affordable housing infused with community services programs and other opportunities that enrich, build, and grow their lives.

GUEST COMMENTARY

UC legislation exposed Capitol’s bad habits DAN WALTERS | CONTRIBUTED

G

ov. Gavin Newsom and state legislators moved quickly to overturn a court decision affecting enrollment at the University of California, but in doing so exposed several bad tendencies.

Gov. Gavin Newsom and state legislators loosed a torrent of self-congratulations this week for acting quickly to protect the University of California from having to limit enrollment at its flagship Berkeley campus.

Instead, they should have apologized because what they did encapsulated several of the Capitol’s most worrisome tendencies.

The problem that Monday’s legislation purported to solve was that courts, including the state Supreme Court, had accepted the outlandish legal notion that increasing enrollment at UC-Berkeley was a “project” that fell under the purview of the California Environmental Quality Act. A local group, Save Berkeley’s Neighborhoods, sued to block the enrollment increase , contending that it would affect the city’s environmental ambience and therefore was subject to CEQA’s stringent mitigation procedures.

When the state Supreme Court upheld that position, the university quickly sought intervention in the Capitol. With support from Newsom, legislation to invalidate the court decision, Senate Bill 118 , was quickly drafted and whisked through the Legislature on Monday for Newsom’s signature.

So what’s wrong with that? Almost everything.

The local backlash against the enrollment increase succeeded in the courts because the Legislature and successive governors had failed for years to overhaul CEQA, which had morphed from a benign instrument for protecting the natural environment into a political weapon.

The weaponization of CEQA is a big factor in California’s failure to close its huge shortage of housing, misused by local opponents of housing projects and by labor unions to compel developers to use unionized labor.

Former Gov. Jerry Brown once described CEQA reform as “the lord’s work” but never was

willing to confront the interests that use the law for purposes having nothing to do with protecting the environment.

Instead of doing the hard work of CEQA reform, legislators and governors have, instead, granted narrow exceptions to the law’s laborious processes for projects with political pull, most noticeably large sports arenas, and made a few tweaks for some kinds of housing. SB 118 continues that practice.

The way in which AB 118 was ushered through the legislative process is also shameful.

First of all, it was drafted as a “budget trailer bill” even though it really had nothing to do with the state budget, by inserting a token $50,000 appropriation to UC. Although budget trailer bills are meant to implement provisions of the budget, they, like CEQA, have morphed into something quite different.

Trailer bills are exempt from some normal legislative procedures. Among other things they take effect immediately on being signed but don’t require the two-thirds votes ordinarily required for such immediate actions.

Thus, they have become vehicles for making big policy changes almost instantaneously, with scant opportunities for public input.

This sneaky tendency is compounded by the timing of SB 118. A state law, passed by voters but loathed by legislators, requires bills to be in print, available for public inspection, for 72 hours prior to passage. SB 118 was introduced late Friday, while the Legislature was in recess, and the 72-hour waiting period was mostly Saturday and Sunday. The Legislature reconvened Monday afternoon and quickly passed the bill after only brief pro forma public hearings.

“I’m grateful to the Legislature for moving quickly on this critical issue,” Newsom said upon signing the bill. “It sends a clear signal that California won’t let lawsuits get in the way of the education and dreams of thousands of students, our future leaders and innovators.”

Perhaps, but it’s also a clear signal that Capitol politicians will continue to avoid CEQA reform in favor of targeted exemptions and bend procedures when it suits them.

KEEPING IT REAL

If the Idea of Defunding the Police Seems Egregious to You, Consider this S.E. WILLIAMS | CONTRIBUTED

I

recently read an article in the publication New Philosopher that opined over the reasons people fight for change.

It talked about how many who believe that change always happens in due course and that no matter how bad things get, if we just give it enough time—things eventually get better. It stressed further how many with this mindset expressed as much during the Civil Rights era further noting how it was this attitude by many white ministers that angered Martin Luther King Jr. and prompted him to write his famous “Letter from a Birmingham Jail something like ‘if only the oppressed would not allow their impatience to get in the way, “elderly xenophobes, racists, and sexists die out or certain politicians leave office, [and] time will gift us with a new, transformed day.”

I guess this is an easy position to take for those who have never been oppressed, despised and/or abused.

The author proceeded to highlight King’s retort to this position that noted change was not guaranteed to happen today or tomorrow unless people fight for it.

Some 60 years later, Black Lives Matter was born.

Many of us watched over the last couple of years as leaders on both sides of the aisle at the federal, state and local levels appeared to lose their minds when Black Lives Matter called for defunding the police on the heels of several high-profile murders of young Black people by officers and deputies across the country.

Certainly, amid the COVID-19 crisis, these indiscriminate killings of young Black people, of any people—though long-suffered and fought against in

ebbs and flows over time— once again became too much for members of the Black community and others to bear.

But the radical idea of defunding the police—like letting Blacks attend white schools or move into white neighborhoods or give them weapons to fight as soldiers in the military once seen as untenable—saw even members of the Black community stammer and stutter as they tried to find the politically correct footing to respond to such a bold demand. ‘Uh… uh…uh…defund the police…uh…uh…uh…Now I certainly support this movement… but, uh…that’s a bridge too far.”

As noted last week, President Joe Biden successfully secured the majority of Black votes in the 2020 election even as he too decried the request to “defund,” and it seems to prove how committed he remains to the status quo regarding the police, the president makes sure to emphasize his position of support at every opportunity. Another way he has proven his support is by ensuring billions of dollars continue flowing into police coffers through every channel at his disposal even as he also designates token amounts to the concepts of community organizations playing a part in community-related police initiatives—the real purpose of the defunding call.

In the meantime, as the nation continues to equiv-

ocate, hem and haw over police funding, 203 Black Lives were taken by police in 2021 according to Newsweek proving not much has changed regarding police taking Black lives indiscriminately since the 2020 uprising—police funding continues to flow like a fireman’s hose without a shut-off valve and Black people continue to die.

Then, as if adding insult to injury, we learned in recent days that between 2010 and 2020 nearly 40,000 payments resulting from allegations of police misconduct were paid by 25 police agencies across the country totaling more than $3 billion according to a March 9, Washington Post report.

Keep in mind the report looked at only 25 of the approximate 17,985 police agencies in the country. Acknowledging police agencies vary in size, just consider the possibilities relative to the total amount of settlement payments were a complete assessment made of all the nation’s police agencies—it would be staggering.

One of the areas included in the report’s assessment was Riverside where a total of $77 million dollars in settlement payments were made during the study period.

Where is the outcry? All I hear are crickets.

It seems unconscionable that rather than reimagining policing, communities are willing to pay millions

of dollars (billions nationally) and sacrifice untold lives being lost or damaged rather than seeking a better way—reimagining—redirecting funding away from the police and toward more purposeful and proactive ways to build relationships between police/deputies and the communities they serve.

Riverside County Sheriff ’s Department has an annual budget totaling more than one billion dollars not including additional funding readily accessible through generous state and/or federal grants.

Things will never change unless agencies like Riverside and others in the inland region are in some way held accountable for their violations of human rights—how else can you describe misuse of force so egregious that every year there are millions of dollars in settlement costs paid by taxpayers—not including the salaries of a contingent of lawyers needed to negotiate settlement outcomes?

Maybe citizens should demand that every dollar paid in settling police use of force cases should be taken from the police/sheriff department’s budget and reallocated to local organizations working to reimagine policing in their communities–it would be a meaningful step toward “defunding the police.”

Of course, this is just my opinion.

I’m keeping it real.

AMERICAN THINKER

The Human Cost of Putin’s Ego ED SHERDLU | CONTRIBUTED

P

ardon me for a little of what we used to call a “reporter’s notebook” story.

An old truism exists in broadcast journalism that “there’s a story around every corner.” I first learned that in 1996 but, unfortunately, I just learned it again today. Russian bombs and bullets, and Putin’s psychotic ego, have destroyed one of the very few good things to come out of a worldwide disaster 35 years ago.

In 1996, I covered the 10th anniversary of the Chernobyl disaster.

Through contacts with the Swedish missionary caring for the families of the Chernobyl firefighters who died during the meltdown, my team had exclusive access inside one of the two then still operating nuclear reactor control rooms at Chernobyl. It sounds incredible now, but ten years after the first meltdown, the need for power in the aftermath of the Soviet Union was so great that two of the four original Chernobyl reactors were still operating.

It’s easy to get coldhearted and jaundiced after decades of covering disaster after disaster but being the only Western journalists

allowed within 30 miles of the plant, actually being inside the plant, interviewing a senior reactor operator who was on duty the night of the meltdown ten years earlier created lasting memories. His description of what really happened the night of the meltdown is a story for another time.

Disasters often create heroes. Six firefighters stayed inside the intensively radioactive building trying to contain the nuclear Armageddon. Within 3 hours, they paid for their heroism with their lives. The physician who remained at the plant, trying to save them and the lives of others, was also a true hero. Luckily, he survived. As an acknowledgment of his dedication and the severe physical limitations caused by his radiation exposure that night, he was later made medical director of what we would

call a nursing home on the outskirts of Kyiv.

One of the core concepts of the Soviet Union was every comrade was equal and “enjoyed” the same level of misery. This nursing home was an exception.

It was clean, the patients well cared for, the food was good, and patients enjoyed regular activities and entertainment. Due to the lack of even the most basic medical supplies, the medical director was forced to practice what he called “lowtech, high touch” medicine.

He didn’t have medical miracles to offer them, but he knew every one of the 250 patients by name, saw each every day, and would always kiss each one on the cheek or forehead when leaving. American physicians cramming as many patients as possible into every hour could learn a lot from him.

Two particular events will stick in my mind forever. First, as we interviewed one patient who spoke some English, another man approached us. The word “journalist” (with a French-sounding pronunciation), is well understood worldwide. The old man asked me one question; “Jurnaleest?” I answered, “Da, da, da. Americanski journalist.” Suddenly, the old man seemed to grow 6 inches in height and promptly proclaimed himself “Rodina (Motherland) Journaleest!”

He rushed to his room and returned with a scrapbook of weathered photographs. With translations provided by a nurse, the old man explained he was Marshall Zhukov’s personal photographer. This weathered old man had fought his way from Stalingrad to Berlin, photographing the horrors of war as he did.

His darkroom was a poncho-covered foxhole on moonless nights. You could watch him drift back in time as he gazed at the pictures. He would eventually remember the names, and then sadly remember how and where they died.

Regardless of the side on which they fought, some

75-year-old man accused of sexually assaulting three girls in San Jacinto and fleeing south of the border prior to a court appearance last year was apprehended in Mexico and extradited back to the United States, authorities said today.

Harry Arlington Durette was captured in Rosarito following an investigation

Durette is charged with 65 felony offenses, most of them alleging forcible lewd acts on a child under 14 years old.

No hearings have been set yet in the case since his extradition.

According to a D.A.’s office statement, agency Investigator Mike Riley developed leads that the defendant was holed up in Rosarito and coordinated with the U.S. Marshals and Mexican authorities to nab him on Tuesday.

Durette was immediately returned to the United States and booked into the Byrd

Detention Center in Murrieta, where he’s being held on $1 million bail.

Prosecutors said Durette was first arrested and charged in August 2020 following a sheriff ’s investigation that revealed multiple alleged acts of molestation involving an underage girl.

The D.A.’s office said the defendant posted a $55,000 bond, and while free, investigators procured additional information indicating that he had allegedly sexually assaulted two other girls.

“Durette failed to appear on the date of his preliminary hearing in October

2021,” according to an agency statement. “A bench warrant was issued and held until Nov. 17, 2021, when he again failed to appear in court. On that date, a $1 million warrant was issued by a judge.”

It was unclear whether Durette allegedly made prior arrangements to flee to Rosarito, or did so on impulse after the amended criminal complaint was filed based on the two additional victims.

He has no documented prior felony convictions in Riverside County. If convicted, he could face life in prison.

“We are deeply grateful

to Congressman Ruiz and our Congressional delegation for securing this new funding to move the Corps’ feasibility study of a long-term Salton Sea management plan forward,” said Salton Sea Authority Executive Director Patrick O’Dowd. “The Authority looks forward to advancing

that study in partnership with the local communities surrounding the Sea, the Corps and the State of California.”

creased tax revenues, support for public services and new opportunities for business growth, will be reaped for many years to come.

On behalf of the people of Soboba, I’d like to thank Dr. Ruiz and all others who worked tirelessly to secure funding for this all-important infrastructure project.”

he Mt. San Jacinto College (MSJC) Art Gallery is pleased to present “She Se Puede,” a special solo exhibition by artist and MSJC associate art instructor Conchi Sanford, from March 21 to April 21 at its San Jacinto Campus location.

An MSJC Art Talk, generously sponsored by the MSJC Foundation, will take place from 1 to 2 p.m.

March 24. A closing reception for the exhibit is scheduled for 4-6 p.m. Saturday, April 16. Details will become available at www. msjc.edu/artgallery.

“She Se Puede” is a unique opportunity to explore Sanford’s sculptural and luminescent resin-stained glass works. Sanford’s abstract sculptures have a basis in representational art, however her forms often resemble bodies in motion or compositions that have defined their own development and growth.

Sanford approaches artmaking in a very corporeal way. The physicality of her art making extends beyond her own studio practice and reaches out to the viewer.

Her forms almost ask you to place your own body in relationship to the sculptures themselves. Sanford

creates armatures layered with colored resin. The resin has a mysterious quality in Sanford’s hands, it simultaneously looks like it is letting light in while emitting light out from the inside.

Sanford also brings the idea of light into her new resin-stained glass works.

In Sanford’s continually creating mind, she turns the classic stained-glass window into an enigmatic vehicle for artistic exploration.

Her windows use a similar layering of diaphanous color to illuminate an antiqued idealized form.

As a first-generation American, Sanford’s goals

reflect in her lifetime exposure to her own ethnic background, cultural diversity and embody her response to her bi-national upbringing.

Sanford is an adjunct instructor at MSJC and Crafton Hills College and CTA union board member. She received a bachelor’s degree in 2000 from California State University, Long Beach, and an MFA from Claremont Graduate University.

GUEST COMMENTARY

Every city in California needs to do its fair share to create more housing COURTNEY WELCH | CONTRIBUTED

S

ome cities have failed to build housing for decades and are willfully ignoring state laws designed to create more of the housing we need.

California currently has a deficit of more than 2.5 million homes across our state – and every city is going to have to step up and do its part to close that gap.

That’s the key finding in the California Department of Housing and Community Development’s recently released housing plan, which sets a target for the number of homes we need to make sure that everyone in our state has an affordable, secure place to live.

Sadly, too many of our cities are still resisting the opportunity and need to address our housing crisis collectively. While a few California cities are acting in good faith by meeting or exceeding their state housing goals, some cities seem utterly disinterested in the problem. They have failed to build housing for decades and are willfully ignoring state laws designed to create more of the housing we need to address the housing shortage and affordability crisis.

In some instances anti-housing activists, primarily made up of wealthy homeowners, are abusing environmental laws to delay or completely block housing construction.

In Berkeley, these groups

used their past successful efforts to block student housing as a pretext to force the University of California to restrict enrollment of new students. The result: more than 3,000 students now face an uncertain future as the university scrambles to address the legal ramifications of the “not in my backyard” (NIMBY) lawsuit.

The city of Woodside found an even more creative (though unsuccessful) way to distort environmental laws to block homes. When faced with the prospect of allowing duplexes, Woodside claimed that the entire town is a protected mountain lion habitat.

These efforts to block urgently needed housing have very little to do with environmental protection, and everything to do with preserving the status-quo: expensive, exclusionary cities with no pathways for working people to live near their jobs, schools, recreation and services.

Meanwhile, our working families continue to face ever-mounting challenges to their existence in our state.

According to the Housing and Community Development’s report, the average renter wage of $25 is well below the $39 needed to pay for the average two-bedroom apartment. With 45% of Californians living in rentals, higher income communities that refuse to build more housing is a recipe for disaster.

Thankfully, the state is taking steps to make sure all

cities are planning for – and building – the housing we need. While anti-housing cities may find middle-income and affordable housing distasteful, and decry any state oversight of their housing plans, these cities have made their own beds.

Now they have to sleep in them.

On the flip side, cities that are doing their part are demonstrating the rewards of building more affordable housing. Recently, Sacramento became the first

OWN A NEW HOME!

city in California to earn the state’s “Pro-Housing Designation” for its housing-friendly policies. That designation gives Sacramento an advantage when competing for funds from the state for affordable housing, transportation and infrastructure, as well as federal tax credits for affordable housing projects.

Emeryville, where I serve on the City Council, has been called one of California’s “most YIMBY” (i.e., pro-housing) cities. We

have made great progress with our below market rate housing program and are focused on building more deeply-affordable housing.

Safe and stable housing is the foundation of a healthy life. We recognize this and urge other cities in our region to do the same. Here in the East Bay, a 15-minute drive may easily pass through five cities. But many of them leave their housing responsibility on the doorsteps of pro-housing cities like Emeryville, forcing lon-

ger commutes and perpetuating inequitable and exclusionary housing practices.

We need to ensure that every city in California is doing its fair share. That requires state oversight – and consequences – for jurisdictions that block housing, along with incentives to encourage cities to legalize more homes. In Emeryville, we prefer carrots. But we also realize that, for some cities that oppose housing, it will have to be the stick.

CALIFORNIA REALTORS | CONTRIBUTED

ALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® (C.A.R.) President Otto Catrina today issued the following statement after Gov. Gavin Newsom’s State of the State address: “The State of the State will not improve until California acts to dramatically increase the supply of ownership housing to provide working Californians the stability and prosperity that homeownership provides.

“Working Californians today are excluded from the benefits of homeownership that middle-class Californians once took for granted. California’s overall homeownership rate has declined to just 55 percent. Among the state’s largest ethnic group, Latinos, it’s 44 percent, and only 37 percent of Black families own their home.

This is unacceptable.

“Homeownership, according to the California Housing Finance Agency, is the most effective way that people build

wealth and stabilize communities. However, the housing supply crisis has pushed the median home price sky high; on track to surpass $830,000 in 2022.

This, in a state with a median household income of about $75,000. A stable and prosperous state cannot just have homes priced for software engineers and the already wealthy.

“The lack of homeownership opportunity is the primary reason the middle class and the businesses that employ them move out of state, creating the growing and troubling income and wealth inequality we see around us today.

“REALTORS®, as part of a bipartisan coalition, have offered common sense solutions to help address this crisis. California must prioritize and act to create homeownership opportunities for all of our diverse state. First, California should shift 30 percent of all federal housing funds coming to the state to homeownership funding — 20 percent to go to homeownership housing production and 10

percent to down payment assistance. And California’s 2022-23 state budget should allocate a minimum of $600 million from the state’s budget surplus, allocating $400 million to the production of owner-occupied, affordable housing for lower income Californians and $200 million to down payment assistance programs.

“A commitment to homeownership from our state’s leaders is essential to creating equity, economic stability, and opportunity.

The 217,000 members of the CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® stand ready to support policies to make real the promise of Homeownership for all Californians.”

Leading the way…® in California real estate for more than 110 years, the CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® (www.car.org) is one of the largest state trade organizations in the United States with more than 217,000 members dedicated to the advancement of professionalism in real estate.

Wright said professional performers from musical shows playing at the Fox offer dance classes to students.

The Fox Riverside Theater Foundation has sponsored 300 high school seniors and served 62 schools to date.

The Fox Theater in downtown Riverside has stood as a landmark since William Fox first purchased the building from West Coast Theaters in 1928.

During World War II, the Fox was converted to a dormitory for housing soldiers.

“At the end of the 20th Century the city of Riverside bought the theater and converted it to a performing arts center,” Wright said.

From that time the theater was used by Hollywood as a way to preview future films before their final edit.

The very first public screening of the American classic “Gone with the Wind” was held at the Fox in Riverside.

dents need is a ‘hook’ to get them connected to school, and she is that ‘hook’ to influence students to succeed,” said Riverside County Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Edwin Gomez. “Elia truly emulates what classified employees do for students every day in Riverside County.”

Jannette Price is an alternative education principal for the juvenile court school operated at three locations by the Riverside County Office of Education. Mrs. Price’s role differs from traditional schools with constant student transfers between probation facilities and individualized learning plans as part of the daily collaboration with staff.

The development of an effective transition policy for students exiting the system, and the casting of a vision for students beyond their current circumstances, have contributed to a graduation rate for students in Riverside County’s juvenile court school that is the highest in California among schools serving this specialized student population.

“I do this because I love working with kids — especially our court school population. I know that there can be a stigma for some of our students, but I truly fight for them and advocate for them,” said Mrs. Price short-

ly after being surprised with the news that she is the 2022 Riverside County Principal of the Year. “They have the ability to learn and make the choices and changes in their life and that drives me every single day.”

“Mrs. Price’s vision for her juvenile court school students is based on the understanding that every student has the right and ability to learn with our support, guidance, and knowledge of their unique, individualized educational needs,” said Riverside County Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Edwin Gomez. “An example of her heart of extraordinary service is that she has the ability to restore the self-confidence and strength of students by helping them prioritize their future over their past.”

The Riverside County Educators of the Year are selected from the more than 36,000 educational employees in the county. The rigorous application process starts with nominations by teachers, classified employees, and school district administrators throughout the county. Applications are then submitted to the Riverside County Office of Education, where an outside selection committee selects the honorees before the county superintendent announcement.

FOUNDATION from C1

“Through fundraising events and donations we are able to hire Live Nation staff to do the workshops.”

Cynthia Wright, director of the foundation, said.

“This allows professional mentors to train students in all aspects of theater such as handling the equipment used in shows, lighting, visual effects and much more.”

To ensure that students don’t fall through the cracks, Mrs. Sanchez utilizes data reports, training sessions with administrators, connecting with parents, and collaborating with educators and outside agencies, to change student behavior and establish a support system aimed at re-engaging them with their education.

Russia steps up assaults as Ukraine appeals for more help ANDREA ROSA | AP NEWS

R

ussia escalated its bombardment of the Ukrainian capital and launched new assaults on the port city of Mariupol, making bloody advances on the ground as Ukraine’s president prepared Wednesday to make a direct appeal for more help in a rare speech by a foreign leader to the U.S. Congress.

As the invasion entered its third week, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy suggested there was still some reason to be optimistic negotiations might yet yield an agreement with the Russian government.

After their delegations met Tuesday via video, Zelenskyy said Russia’s demands were becoming “more realistic.” The sides were expected to speak again later Wednesday.

“Efforts are still needed, patience is needed,” he said in his video address to the nation. “Any war ends with an agreement.”

Developments on the diplomatic front and on the ground occurred as the number of people fleeing Ukraine amid Europe’s heaviest fighting since

World War II eclipsed 3 million.

Zelenskyy, previewing his speech to the U.S. Congress, thanked President Joe Biden and “all the friends of Ukraine” for $13.6 billion in new support.

He appealed for more weapons and more sanctions to punish Russia and repeated his call to “close the skies over Ukraine to Russian missiles and planes.”

He said Russian forces on Tuesday had been unable to move deeper into Ukrainian territory but had continued their heavy shelling of cities.

Over the past day, 28,893 civilians were able to flee the fighting through nine humanitarian corridors, although the Russians refused to allow aid into Mariupol, he said.

Also Tuesday, the leaders of three European Union countries — Poland, the Czech Republic and Slovenia — visited Kyiv in a bold show of support amid the danger.

Russia’s bombardment of the capital appeared to become more systematic and edged closer to the city center Tuesday, smashing apartments, a subway sta-

tion and other civilian sites.

Zelenskyy said the barrages hit four multi-story buildings and killed dozens.

A senior U.S. defense official, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss the Pentagon’s assessment, said the Russians were using long-range fire to hit civilian targets inside Kyiv with increasing frequency but that their ground forces were making little to no progress around the country. The official said Russian troops were still about 15 kilometers (9 miles) from the center of the capital.

The official said the U.S.

has seen indications that Russia believes it may need more troops or supplies than it has on hand in Ukraine, and it is considering ways to get more resources into the country. The official did not elaborate.

Before Tuesday’s talks, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Moscow would press its demands that Ukraine drop its bid to join NATO, adopt a neutral status and “demilitarize.”

In a statement that seemed to signal potential grounds for agreement with Moscow, Zelenskyy told European leaders gathered

in London that he realizes NATO has no intention of accepting Ukraine.

“We have heard for many years about the open doors, but we also heard that we can’t enter those doors,” he said. “This is the truth, and we have simply to accept it as it is.”

NATO does not admit nations with unsettled territorial conflicts. Zelenskyy has repeatedly said he realizes NATO isn’t going to offer membership to Ukraine and that he could consider a neutral status for his country but needs strong security guarantees from both the

West and Russia.

The U.N. said close to 700 civilians in Ukraine have been confirmed killed, with the true figure probably much higher.

Two journalists working for Fox News were killed when the vehicle they were traveling in was hit by fire Monday on the outskirts of Kyiv, the network said. Fox identified the two as video journalist Pierre Zakrzewski and Ukrainian journalist Oleksandra “Sasha” Kuvshynova, who was helping Fox crews navigate the area.

Another journalist was killed Sunday in Ukraine.

New efforts to bring civilians to safety and deliver aid were underway. The Red Cross said it was working to evacuate people in about 70 buses from the northeastern town of Sumy, near the Russian border.

The exodus from Mariupol marked the biggest evacuation yet from the southern city of 430,000, where officials say a weekslong siege has killed more than 2,300 people and left residents struggling for food, water, heat and medicine. Bodies have been bur-

Seoul: North Korean missile exploded in air in failed launch

HYUNG-JIN KIM AND KIM TONG-HYUNG | AP NEWS

A

North Korean missile fired from its capital region exploded in mid-air in an apparent failed launch on Wednesday, South Korea’s military said, amid speculation that the North could soon launch its biggest longrange missile in its most significant provocation in years.

Details of the missile explosion weren’t immediately known. But the launch, the 10th of its kind this year, shows North Korea is determined to press ahead on its push to modernize its weapons arsenal and pressure its rivals into making concessions amid dormant denuclearization talks.

The North Korean missile blew up while it was flying at an altitude of about 20 kilometers (12.4 miles), a South Korean military official said requesting anonymity because he wasn’t publicly authorized to speak to media on the issue. He said the

cause of the explosion wasn’t known.

South Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff earlier said in a statement that the launch made from the Pyongyang region around 9:30 a.m. apparently failed. It said South Korean and U.S. intelligence authorities were analyzing details of the launch.

The U.S. Indo-Pacific Command later said that North Korea fired a ballistic missile but didn’t say whether it was a failed launch. A command statement said

the launch didn’t pose an immediate threat to U.S. territory and its allies but called on North Korea to refrain from further destabilizing acts.

Japanese Chief Cabinet Secretary Hirokazu Matsuno told reporters that a flight of a ballistic missile has not been confirmed and that Tokyo is working with Washington and Seoul to further analyze what happened.

Experts say past failures still have moved North Korea closer to its goal of acquiring a viable nuclear arsenal that could threaten the American homeland.

Of eight “Musudan” intermediate-range missiles tests in 2016, only one of those launches was seen by outside analysts as successful, which led to debates of whether North Korea’s path toward ICBMs had been cut off.

However, the North in 2017 flew more powerful intermediate-range missiles over Japan and conducted three successful test-flights

of ICBMs that demonstrated a potential range to strike deep into the U.S. mainland.

North Korea’s successful satellite launches in 2012 and 2016 — which were viewed by the U.N. as disguised tests of its long-range missile technology — also followed repeated failures.

The U.S. and South Korean militaries said last week that North Korea had tested an ICBM system in two recent launches, referring to the developmental Hwasong-17 missile that North Korea unveiled during a military parade in October 2020.

In the two recent launches on Feb. 27 and March 5, the North Korean missiles flew medium-range distances, and experts have said North Korea could eventually perform a full-range ICBM test.

The North has said it tested cameras and other systems for a spy satellite and released what it said were photos taken from space during one of the two tests, but it didn’t confirm what rocket or missile it launched.

Observers say North Korea aims to boost its ICBM capability while trying to place its first functioning spy satellite into orbit. North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has vowed to acquire an improved ICBM and a spy satellite among an array of sophisticated weapons systems he says his country needs to cope with what he calls American hostility.

The Hwasong-17 is North Korea’s biggest missile, which could potentially fly up to 15,000 kilometers (9,320 miles), far enough to strike anywhere in the U.S. and beyond. The 25-meter (82-foot) missile, which was shown again at a defense exhibition in Pyongyang last year, has yet to be testlaunched.

The three ICBMs that North Korea tested in 2017 were the Hwasong-14 and Hwasong-15. Some analysts say developing a larger missile could mean the country is trying to arm its longrange weapons with multiple warheads to overcome missile defense systems.

If North Korea makes a new ICBM launch, it would be its highest-profile weapons tests since its third and last ICBM launch in November 2017.

North Korea will likely call its potential new ICBM test a rocket launch to place a reconnaissance satellite in space, not a weapons test.

That could invite condemnation but likely no fresh U.N. sanctions, some analysts say, since Russia and China wield vetoes on the Security Council and would oppose it.

Other North Korean missiles tested this year were mostly shorter-range, nuclear-capable weapons which place South Korea and Japan, both key U.S. allies, within striking distance. In January alone, North Korea carried out seven rounds of missile tests, a record number of monthly tests since Kim took power in late 2011.

thing about old soldiers makes them very special.

Regardless of whether history approves or disapproves of their cause, there is honor in being willing to defend that cause with your life.

When we left him, the nurse told us he was terminally ill with cancer, with about a month to live. She said, however, by listening to his stories, we were the best thing that had happened to him in a year.

She said, “You Americans have helped this proud old Ukrainian man die with the dignity he deserves.”

The memories don’t stop

ied in mass graves.

Kyrylo Tymoshenko, a senior aide to Zelenskyy, said about 20,000 people managed to leave Mariupol on Tuesday in 4,000 private vehicles via a designated safe corridor leading to the city of Zaporizhzhia.

On a day when thousands managed to leave, Russian troops seized Mariupol’s largest hospital, regional leader Pavlo Kyrylenko said. He said the troops forced about 400

there. After lunch, a youth group from a local synagogue came to entertain the residents. These kids, with their bright, shiny faces, were dressed in traditional Ukrainian garb. Just seeing them put smiles on the faces of the old, infirm patients packing the auditorium.

The teen group performed a traditional Ukrainian folk dance for the first number, complete with musical accompaniment. The patients were delighted and applauded politely at the end of the performance.

The second musical number was something entirely different. The small vocal group broke into an

English-language rendition of the 1950s’ rock ‘n’ roll hit “Rock Around the Clock.”

Suddenly, every patient who was not in a wheelchair, and even some who were, leaped up and began to dance wildly in the aisles.

Visually, you could have been at a 1957 high school sock hop. Patients who a minute earlier seemed barely ambulatory suddenly became teenagers again. John Travolta in “Grease “had nothing on these oldsters.

It was like watching a replay of Kevin Bacon in the last scene of “Footloose.”

If the Ukrainian government could have bottled the energy in the room at that moment, they could’ve

replaced all the power they lost when Chernobyl exploded.

At the end of the song, the patients all sat, or actually, “plopped” back into their seats for another folk dance.

But just when we thought nothing could top “Rock Around the Clock,” the kids from the synagogue broke into “Hand Jive.” Suddenly, the audience was all dancing teenagers again. It was as if their old bodies had been recharged. Life was fun again!

So, although our exclusive access to the Chernobyl plant created a great story, with incredible video, the other “story around ev-

ery corner” of the nursing home is the one I will never forget. It was the one “good” story of the week.

But although that memory will remain with me forever, the source of the story is now demolished. Mr. Putin’s need to inflict terror and carnage on the Ukrainians drove him to bomb and destroy that nursing home and most people resided there. Putin’s bombs hit it repeatedly Thursday night. Some claim there were no casualties. I doubt it. Bombs kill people, especially old people.

Much of the past two weeks of terror has been so Putin can look in the mirror and see a “tough guy,”

even if the rest of the world sees a murderous psychopathic thug.

Many of the residents in their now-destroyed last home were old soldiers, both men and women, the last remnants of those Ukrainians willing to give their lives to protect Rodina in what Russians call the Great Patriotic War, WWII. And now many are dead so Mr. Putin can prove to doubting Russians and his mistresses that he really is a tough guy.

Some may actually think of Putin as a tough guy. But, to me, he is nothing but a murderous son of a bitch, and I know where the bodies are to prove it.

people from nearby homes into the Regional Intensive Care Hospital and were using them and roughly 100 patients and staff as human shields by not allowing them to leave.

Kyrylenko said shelling had already heavily damaged the hospital’s main building, but medical staff have been treating patients in makeshift wards in the basement.

Doctors from other Mariupol hospitals made a video to tell the world about the horrors they’ve been seeing. “We don’t want

to be heroes and martyrs posthumously,” one woman said. She also said it’s insufficient to simply refer to people as the wounded: “it’s torn off arms and legs, gouged out eyes, bodies torn into fragments, insides falling out.”

Meanwhile, the Ukrainian army’s general staff said Tuesday evening that Russian troops had launched another assault on the strategically important city.

Fighting has intensified on Kyiv’s outskirts in recent days, and air raid sirens wailed inside the cap-

ital. The mayor imposed a curfew through Thursday morning.

Tuesday’s artillery strikes hit the Svyatoshynskyi district of western Kyiv, adjacent to the suburb of Irpin, which has seen some of the worst fighting of the war.

Flames shot out of a 15-story apartment building and smoke choked the air as firefighters climbed ladders to rescue people.

The assault blackened several floors of the building, ripped a hole in the ground outside and blew out windows in neighboring apart-

ment blocks.

“Yesterday we extinguished one fire, today another. It is very difficult,” a firefighter who gave only his first name, Andriy, said outside the building, tears falling from his eyes. “People are dying, and the worst thing is that children are dying. They haven’t lived their lives and they have already seen this.”

City authorities also tweeted an image of the blown-out facade of a downtown subway station that had been used as a bomb shelter and said

trains would no longer stop at the station.

On Tuesday evening, Ukrainian forces repelled Russian troops who tried to storm Ukraine’s second-largest city, Kharkiv, from their positions in Piatykhatky, a suburb 15 kilometers (9 miles) to the north, the regional administration chief, Oleh Sinehubov, said on Telegram.

He said the Kharkiv’s defenders were able “to push the enemy back beyond its previous position,” in what he described as a “shameful defeat” for Russia.

led sanctions on the North.

Washington has urged North Korea to return to talks without any preconditions, but Pyongyang has rejected such overtures saying the United

States must first withdraw its hostile policies.

In January, North Korea hinted at lifting its 4-year moratorium on ICBM and nuclear tests. South Korea’s

Defense Ministry said Friday it detected signs that North Korea likely is restoring some of the tunnels at its nuclear testing site that it detonated ahead of the now-dormant

nuclear diplomacy.

The U.S. Treasury Department last week announced new sanctions against three Russian-based entities that aided ongoing

development of North Korea’s military capabilities and two individuals tied to those companies. The sanctions block access to any U.S. assets held by them.
