Supreme Court asked to bar punishment for acquitted conduct KEVIN FREKING | AP NEWS

A

jury convicted Dayonta McClinton of robbing a CVS pharmacy but acquitted him of murder. A judge gave McClinton an extra 13 years in prison for the killing anyway.

In courtrooms across America, defendants get additional prison time for crimes that juries found they didn’t commit.

The Supreme Court is being asked, again, to put an end to the practice. It’s possible that the newest member of the court and a former federal public defender, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, could hold a pivotal vote.

McClinton’s case and three others just like it are scheduled to be discussed when the justices next meet in private on Jan. 6.

Sentencing a defendant for what’s called “acquitted con-

duct” has gone on for years, based on a Supreme Court decision from the late 1990s. And the justices have turned down numerous appeals asking them to declare that the Constitution forbids it.

The closest the court came to taking up the issue was in 2014, when Justices Antonin Scalia, Clarence Thomas and Ruth Bader Ginsburg provided three of the four votes necessary to hear an appeal.

“This has gone on long enough,” Scalia wrote in dissent from the court’s decision to reject an appeal from defendants who received longer prison terms for conspiring to distribute cocaine after jurors acquitted them of conspiracy charges.

Scalia and Ginsburg have since died, and Thomas remains on the court. But two other justices, Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh, have voiced concerns while

serving as appeals court judges.

“Allowing judges to rely on acquitted or uncharged conduct to impose higher sentences than they otherwise would impose seems a dubious infringement of the rights to due process and to a jury trial,” Kavanaugh wrote in 2015.

Jackson, who also previously served on the U.S. Sentencing Commission, could provide a fourth vote to take up the issue, said Douglas Berman, an expert on sentencing at the Ohio State University law school.

“She is someone who we’d have good reason to believe would be

troubled by the continued use of acquitted conduct,” said Berman, who filed a brief calling on the court to take up McClinton’s case.

Jackson replaced Justice Stephen Breyer, who generally fa-

Here’s what you need to know about California’s new pay transparency law GRACE GEDYE | CALMATTERS

I

n less than two weeks, job seekers in California will finally know how much a job pays when they apply for it — if companies don’t figure out a way around a new law.

Starting on Jan. 1, employers with at least 15 workers will have to include pay ranges in job postings. Employees will also be able to ask for the pay range for their own position, and larger companies will have to provide more detailed pay data to California’s Civil Rights Department than previously required.

California isn’t the first state to force businesses to put their cards on the table. Colorado took that step in 2019, and a similar requirement went into effect in New York City in November. Washington state has its own version that will also kick in

on Jan. 1, and a similar statewide bill in New York was just signed by the governor.

The goal of the California law is to reduce gender and racial pay gaps. But New York City’s measure had a bumpy start, with some employers posting unhelpfully wide ranges the first day the law was in place. When Colorado rolled out its law at the beginning of 2021, some companies posted remote jobs that they said could be done from anywhere in the U.S. — except Colorado — dodging the requirement. That wasn’t widespread; about 1% of remote job listings included a Colorado carveout, according to reporting in The Atlantic.

But since California has nearly 7 times as many people as Colorado, according to U.S. Census data, excluding Californians in a remote job listing would come at a higher cost.

“California’s just such a huge

many industries that are not going to be touched by this.”

EMWD Secures $17.5M Federal Grant for Purified Water Replenishment Program EMWD | CONTRIBUTED

E

astern Municipal Water District (EMWD) has received an additional $17.5 million in funding from the United States Bureau of Reclamation to advance its Purified Water Replenishment (PWR) program.

The new funding authorization, which is part of the Water Infrastructure Improvements for the Nation Act, brings the total federal funding for the project to $27.5 million, making it the largest federal grant funding total EMWD has received for a single project.

EMWD was previously awarded $10 million in funding for the program in August 2022 through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. For its PWR program, EMWD will construct an ad-

vance treatment facility adjacent to its existing San Jacinto Valley Regional Water Reclamation Facility. The new facility will further treat recycled water through microfiltration and reverse osmosis, resulting in purified water.

That water will then be blended with tertiary recycled water and piped to EMWD’s Mountain Avenue West Groundwater Replenishment Facility, where it will percolate into the local groundwater basin. After at least five years of natural soil aquifer filtration underground and blending with groundwater, the water will be pumped out, cleaned one final time, then used as a safe and reliable drinking water source.

The program will increase the quality and quantity of EMWD’s groundwater supplies.

A 25-year-old Riverside resident was driving a 2001 Lincoln sedan southbound on Tyler Street when it struck the pedestrian, Elliott said.

“The pedestrian was transported to Riverside Community Hospital

however lifesaving measures were unsuccessful,” he said.

The pedestrian’s name was not released pending notification of relatives, Elliott said.

The motorist was not injured and was cooperating with the Riverside Police Department’s Major Accident Investigation Team, he said.

CALIFORNIA REPORTS RISE IN FENTANYL SEIZURES IN CRACKDOWN California seized more than 28,000 pounds of fentanyl over the past year, a nearly six-fold increase in the amount of the drug recovered a year earlier, officials said Friday.

California’s National Guard, which hired and trained more than 160 members to work on efforts to reduce the amount of fentanyl on the streets, contributed to the seizures, Gov. Gavin Newsom’s office said in a statement.

The report comes as states grapple with an addiction and overdose crisis that has grown deadlier due to fentanyl and other synthetic opioids, which can be 50 to 100 times more potent than morphine, heroin or prescrip-

tion opioids. Last year, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported more than 100,000 Americans died of drug overdoses over a 12-month period, about two-thirds of these linked to fentanyl and other synthetic drugs.

“As we mourn the many lives lost, California is working harder than ever to fight this crisis and protect people from these dangerous drugs to ensure our communities are kept safe in the first place,” Newsom said.

The street value of the drugs seized in California was estimated at $230 million, the statement said.

CALIFORNIA POLICE SHOOT, WOUND MAN WITH METAL PIPE Southern California police shot and wounded a 29-year-old man early Saturday after he allegedly tried to hit them with a metal pipe, authorities said.

The man, whose name was not released, was taken to the hospital in critical but stable condition, according to Westminster police. No officers were hurt.

Police responded to a report of possible vandalism shortly before 1 a.m.

Saturday and found the man, who allegedly had a metal pipe, the police department said in a news release. He refused to drop it, even after officers

tried using a stun gun to subdue him.

Police say he then tried to strike them with the pipe and at least one officer opened fire, according to the news release. It was not clear how many times the man was struck by bullets or how many officers fired their weapons.

The man will be booked on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon on a peace officer.

The city of Westminster is about 25 miles (40.23 kilometers) southeast of downtown Los Angeles.

Last waves of stimulus debit cards for qualifying California residents will arrive within next week JOSUE TORRES | CONTRIBUTOR

C

alifornia residents may anticipate receiving a direct payment which is part of the last waves of the governmental program designed to protect citizens against inflation.

Those Californians who qualify will get their Middle-Class Tax Refund between Monday and New Year’s Eve. The state government’s website states that the last waves of this payment, which include direct deposits and state-issued debit cards, will be made by the end of January 2023.

People who did not get the Golden State Stimulus, a payment made to Californians in the first half of 2021, and whose last names begin with the letters L through Z, should anticipate receiving their payment within the following two weeks. From December 5 through December 17, non-GSS beneficiaries whose last names began

with the letters A through K previously got their money.

The other receivers of this payment are those who received direct deposits but changed their banking details after filing their 2020 tax forms. They will be paid somewhere between December 17 and January 14 of the following year.

Applicants must have earned less than $250,000 per year for single filers or less than $500,000 per year for couples in order to be eligible for this payment.

They must also have filed their 2020 taxes by October 15, 2021, and they must have lived in California for at least six months during the 2020 tax year.

This payment is not available to any California citizens who were declared qualified to be claimed as dependents for tax purposes in 2020.

The payout for single filers with income between $125,000 and $250,000 annually and with no dependents is $200, which is less than what other filers would receive. A maximum

amount of $1,050 is offered to married filers with dependents who earn up to $150,000 annually.

Any taxpayers who electronically submitted their 2020 state tax forms and got their tax refunds will get direct deposit payments.

According to California’s

Franchise Tax Board, those eligible for the Middle-Class Tax Refund will receive their debit card payments in the mail.

California residents can call 800–542–9332 or visit the California Franchise Tax Board website for further information.

hristmas trees can be recycled, so instead of dumping them in the trash, leave them on the curb or take them to Riverside County landfills to be turned into mulch, officials urged residents.

According to the Department of Waste Resources, county residents can ensure trees are reused for environmental programs by participating in the agency’s curbside pickup program, or taking seasonal firs directly to landfills and other dropoff locations countywide.

Tannenbaums must be stripped of decorations, including lights and tinsel, before they can be recycled. Trees that are more than 4 feet tall should be cut in half, officials said.

Flocked trees are not accepted and should be chopped up and discarded in refuse bins.

Most trash haulers serving the county retrieve firs for recycling in the twoweek period after Christmas.

Those residents who don’t

have curbside trash pickup, or who miss the deadline, can drop their trees, without charge, at any one of the following locations: • A. Lua Wood Recycling, 18938 Mermack Ave., Lake Elsinore; • Badlands Landfill, 31125 Ironwood Ave., Moreno Valley; • Blythe Landfill, 1000 Midland Road, Blythe; • B.P.

hristmas celebrations kicked off on Dec. 2 when the Soboba Parks and Recreation Department hosted its 4th annual Tree Lighting Ceremony and Light Parade at the Soboba Sports Complex. There were activities and fun for all ages with food and retail vendors, department booths and a visit from Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus.

About 10 brightly decorated vehicles made their way to the event from The Oaks, honking and tossing candy treats to residents who lined the parade route. The top three vote getters, judged on complexity and creativity, received cash prizes.

They were John McKay, Chris Vallez and Wayne Nelson.

An “ugly” sweater con-

test produced some adorable contestants in the youngest age category of 0-4 and for ages 5-7 and 8-11, prizes were given to the most festive and cutest. Christian Aceves, Director at the Soboba Tribal Environmental Department, won in the 18+ category wearing a green sweatshirt embellished with recycled items, what else?

Tribal Administration and the Soboba Foundation were joined by Tribal Chairman Isaiah Vivanco at their cheerfully decorated station where visitors could pick up a takehome Gingerbread House kit.

Soboba Tribal TANF offered a Letters to Santa station that included a mailbox with a direct delivery to the North Pole.

special Christmas wishes they had. Before signing their name, they requested Santa give their favorite reindeer a big hug and kiss with a blank line for the reindeer’s name.

The annual Soboba Foundation and Soboba Casino Resort Joint Hemet/San Jacinto Valley Chamber Holiday Mixer took place on Dec. 7 at the SCR Event Center.

This was the 14th year the joint mixer has taken place, at various locations throughout the valley. Good cheer was spread throughout the room with elegant decorations and dessert bars that featured everything from gingerbread men to snowflake cookies. The banquet buffet offered great food options for the approximately 300 guests.

The purpose of the holiday mixer is to share time with each other, meet new members and reconnect

with familiar ones. It is also to show appreciation for the year-long membership that connects the community business-wise and personally.

Soboba Tribal Chairman Isaiah Vivanco welcomed everyone on behalf of the Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians and the Soboba Foundation and thanked them for working as a community to support local economy.

“I think it takes all of us to make this valley really excel,” he said.

Chamber Executive Director Cyndi Lemke said it is inspiring to see everyone come together to help others. “We’re helping the youth in this valley, the seniors, and each other,” she said. “I really appreciate you and I feel so blessed to be a part of the Chamber of Commerce and I thank you all for being a part of the Chamber.”

Several members of the Noli Indian School Drama Club perform for family, teachers and staff on Dec. 8.

Many gift baskets donated by Chamber members made it seem like Christmas morning for lucky guests during the traditional “raffle hour” portion of the Holiday Mixer event, which was led by Chamber Chairman Andrew Vallejos.

Soboba Foundation President Dondi Silvas gave some closing remarks saying she agreed with Vallejos’ comments that it’s all about getting together, laughing, having fun and having a good time.

On Dec. 8, members of the Noli Indian School Drama Club presented ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas in the multipurpose room, next to the Soboba Tribal Preschool.

The room was overflowing with family members, teachers and staff who were delighted by the performances of Victoria Boisa, Alaina Espinoza,

Tobi Chapparosa, Ani Hampton, Tamara Hurtado and Lyliana Procela.

Students who worked the tech side of things were Edgar Gladin, Jonathan Gladin, Jane Hollingsworth, Christopher Lagunas and Anthony Pimental. The production was directed by Noli staff members Lorin Alvarez and Genna Santini with technical direction by Jay Dagostino.

The Polar Express made a stop at the Soboba Sports Complex on the afternoon of Dec. 10 for the annual Soboba Tribal Christmas Party. Dinner was served, raffle prizes were won by adults, and children received toys from Santa Claus.

It was a great community start for the Christmas season that found Soboba Tribal Members enjoying friends and family in their own ways on Dec. 25.

ou’ve probably noticed by now that each year, almost all the major magazines put out issues not only covering the past year but predictions for the new year too. Names of those who have died and major events are highlighted, then they move on to predicting the coming years events. So, here we are - 2023 - I wonder how we’ll all do this year? When our 365 days are over, will we be looking back with satisfaction or regret? Will we look to the next year with anticipation or with dread?

There’s a terrific set of verses found in Philippians which are stellar words to begin 2023 with: “Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead, I press on to reach the end of the race.” One translation reads: “I’m off and running, and I’m not turning back.”

Great advice! Once we right our course, we need to quit looking in the rear view mirror and start looking through the windshield. A life well lived never looks backwards!

But, of course, we need to be wise in our forgetting too. There’s a funny story told of two old men sitting on a park bench. One of them said, “You know, as I get older I can’t remember things the way I used to.” The other man replied, “I used to have that problem too until I took this memory course. It’s a very simple technique based on associating words with names, places & events So now I don’t have trouble

an hour to be a plumber in Berkeley; $18.38-$28.51 an hour for an assistant teacher job in Los Angeles; $74,600 – $141,000 per year for a future compensation analyst in Davis. If companies aren’t adding ranges, people can sue or file a complaint with the Labor Commissioner’s Office, which can issue a penalty of $100 to $10,000 per violation. Companies that don’t have pay ranges in job postings won’t get penalized for their first violation, so long as they add the information.

In addition to preparing to post pay ranges in job listings, companies that don’t already have pay bands for current employees should put them in place, and they should make sure that there aren’t pay disparities based on race, sex, or other protected classes between employees doing substantially similar work, said Jacklin Rad, a lawyer who advises employers on California workplace laws at Jackson Lewis, a law firm.

Businesses are about to have their pay scrutinized by job candidates and employees, said Wallace, the compensation platform

company co-founder. “You better make sure that you have a really strong answer for why an employee is paid less,” than the posted range for a similar-looking job, she said. The new California law is uncovering that a lot of organizations have been operating without pay bands, Wallace said. Many of the company’s earliest customers were tech and biotech businesses, Wallace said, but since the bill was signed into law she’s seen increased interest from other sectors, including manufacturing and utilities.

One question that arose immediately when New York City’s law went into effect was how wide can a pay range be without violating the law? Some postings included ranges where the high end was about $100,000 more than the low end.

California’s law explains the required payscale as “the salary or hourly wage range that the employer reasonably expects to pay for the position.”

“It’s really ambiguous,” said Rad, the lawyer. “A lot of attorneys that work in this sphere ask themselves: ‘You know, if the range is too wide, then does that defeat the purpose of pay

transparency?’”

CalMatters reached out to the Labor Commissioner’s office, which is charged with enforcing the payscale component of the law. The office didn’t make anyone available to be interviewed, and did not respond to a detailed list of questions about how the law will be interpreted.

California government agencies include pay scales in job postings, and some of the ranges are large. The Civil Rights Department, for example, recently had a posting for an “Assistant Deputy Director, Workforce Data Officer” with a listed pay range of $7,976 – $19,321 per month, which translates to about $96,000 – $232,000 per year. Another posting, for a Deputy Chief Counsel at the Civil Rights Department had a similar range.

Pay ranges are set by the state’s human resources agency, CalHR, and are influenced by bargaining with unions, said Adam Romero, deputy director of executive programs at California’s Civil Rights Department. Those two positions are “very senior,” and most roles don’t have pay ranges that wide, Romero said.

EMWD has been one of the nation’s most successful water agencies in securing federal, state and local grant funding to provide a more reliable water, wastewater and recycled water infrastructure for its customers.

“EMWD would like to thank the Bureau of Rec-

remembering anything at all.” The first man said, “Really? What’s the name of the course?”

The old man looked puzzled, scratched his head, then asked, “What’s the flower with a long stem, has thorns, and colorful petals?” “A rose?” the other man replied. “Yes, thank you!” He turns to his wife and asks, “Rose, what was the name of that memory course?” The moral here?

Try and hang onto the good stuff as long as we can!

None of us knows for certain the length of our days which is why we are called to make the most of every day! Forget the bad and move forward on a positive note. If we dwell on the negative, the fruit will be dead on arrival.

I try to enter each new year with a clean slate. As someone once remarked, “Cheers to a New Year and another chance for us to get it right.” I mean, who really doesn’t want to get life right?! A writer once penned, “The object of a New Year is not that we should have a new year. It is that we should have a new soul and a new nose; new feet, a new backbone, new ears, and new eyes. Unless a man starts afresh about things, he will certainly do nothing effective.”

Years ago I read an article and one sentence just popped off he page. I remember thinking that this was one of the most true sentences I had ever read in my life. I reached for pen & paper and eventually typed out this single sentence.

It has hung on the wall by my desk ever since. The quote is by Thornton Wilder: “Every good and excellamation for its support of this program,” EMWD Board President Phil Paule said. “EMWD works hard to bring our customers tax dollars back into their community, and this funding is an example of those efforts. We are looking forward to advancing this important effort, and this funding will play a major role advancing this program.” ### Eastern Municipal Water District is the water,

The point? A good New Year is worth fighting for!

Friends and family are worth fighting for. Being a better person in 2023 is worth the effort - losing weight and getting in shape is worth the fight. Becoming everything you were meant to be is definitely worth fighting for, and, of course, becoming closer to the Lord, the One who has given us this amazing life, is also worth fighting for!

In the end, I like what good ol’ Ben Franklin had to say about the New Year: “Be always at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let each New Year find you a better person.”

Happy New Year and blessings to each of you for an amazing 2023!

California has gender pay gaps across industries

The second major component of the new law is that businesses with 100 or more employees will have to start reporting more detailed data on what they pay workers to the state.

It builds on a 2020 law that required companies to submit reports to the state’s Civil Rights Department breaking down how many employees they have in each job category and pay band by sex, race, and ethnicity. The goal was to enable state agencies to more identify wage disparities more efficiently, and to prompt companies to assess their own pay.

The reports are used “in individual investigations of complaints of pay discrimination or other types of complaints of civil rights violations against employers,” said Romero at the Civil Rights Department. The data on its own doesn’t prove there’s been

a violation of the law, but it provides context, said Romero. The Civil Rights Department cited the pay data, for example, when it sued Tesla for race discrimination and harassment in February.

The law taking effect Jan. 1 requires employers to add median and mean hourly rate for each demographic group within each job category and include pay data for contractors.

“We are really trying to shine more light on this growing shadow workforce of contract workers,” said Mariko Yoshihara, policy director for the California Employment Lawyers Association, which supported the new law.

Google, for example, has more temps and contractors than full-time employees, according to New York Times’ reporting. The new law will reveal how contractors’ pay compares

to that of full-time employees, Yoshihara said.

An early version of the new law would have made each company’s pay data public. But after intense pushback from business groups — who said the data is not a reliable measure of pay disparities and that it would “set up employers for public criticism with incomplete, uncontextualized reports and create a false impression of wage discrimination where none may exist” — the bill was amended to keep the reports private.

If companies don’t submit their pay data, the Civil Rights department can take action. It sued Michaels, the craft store chain, and JP Morgan Chase Bank for not submitting the data; both companies settled, paying a combined total of about $23,500 to cover the department’s fees and costs.

The U.S. Postal Service will only buy electric vehicles starting in 2026 CAITLIN O’KANE | CONTRIBUTOR

T

he United States Postal Service is aiming to acquire at least 66,000 battery electric delivery vehicles by 2028– playing its part in reducing emissions. All new vehicles acquired by the postal service from 2026 through 2028 are expected to be 100% electric.

The postal service plans to acquire 60,000 “next generation delivery vehicles” – at least 75% of which will be battery electric – plus an additional 21,000 battery electric commercial vehicles off the shelf, depending on availability, according to a news release.

The USPS currently has more than 220,000 old vehicles in its fleet and delivers to 163 million addresses, six days per week.

Most of the money will come from the postal service, but Congress has set aside $3 billion to help create a nationwide infrastructure to make more electric cars, like the postal service’s delivery fleet, Postmaster General Louis DeJoy said in a

statement.

The new cars will be safer and more efficient and, unlike the vehicles they are replacing, include air conditioning and advanced safety technology. For the off-theshelf vehicles – ones that have already been manufactured – USPS will prioritize domestic manufacturing, according to the release.

An executive order, signed by President Biden in January of 2021, called for all federal vehicles to be zero-emission by 2035.

USPS had announced a plan to purchase 50,000 to 165,000 new trucks, with “at least” 10% of the trucks being battery electric vehicles. USPS said this plan is “the most achievable given the Postal Service’s financial condition.”

In February 2021, USPS received a letter from Environmental Protection Agency, which called on the postal service to conduct a new environmental review and hold a public hearing on its plan to modernize its fleet.

emissions calculations for the proposed new fleet were inaccurate.

Many states are looking to lower emissions by limiting the sale of gas-powered vehicles. California and New York will phase out gas-powered vehicles by 2035.

Last year, state regulators in California voted to also crack down on heavy-duty trucks weighing more than 14,000 pounds. While semitrailers make up just 3% of all vehicles in California, they account for more than half of all pollution from cars and trucks each year in the state.

Now, these big trucks, including ones from other states passing through California, must be tested to make sure they meet the state’s pollution standards.

Trucks must be tested at least four times a year and the rule will be enforced by using roadside monitoring devices.

The state is also limiting smaller gas-powered engines. The California Air Resources Board agreed to ban the sale of new products that are run by small gas-powered engines, such as leaf blowers, lawn mowers and portable generators.

House passes $1.7 trillion spending bill with Ukraine aid

A

$1.7 trillion spending bill financing federal agencies through September and providing more aid to a devastated Ukraine cleared the House on Friday as lawmakers raced to finish their work for the year and avoid a partial government shutdown.

The bill passed mostly along party lines, 225201. It now goes to President Joe Biden to be signed into law.

Passage of the bill represented a closing act for Rep. Nancy Pelosi’s second stint as House speaker, and for the Democratic majority she led

back to power in the 2018 election. Republicans will take control of the House next year and Rep. Kevin McCarthy is campaigning to replace her.

He is appealing for support from staunch conservatives in his caucus who have largely trashed the size of the bill and many of the priorities it contains. He spoke with a raised voice for about 25 minutes, assailing the bill for spending too much and doing too little to curb illegal immigration and the flow of fentanyl across the U.S.-Mexico border.

“This is a monstrosity that is one of the most shameful acts I’ve ever seen in this body,” McCarthy said of the legis-

The speech prompted a quick quip from Rep. Jim McGovern, D-Mass., who said “after listening to that, it’s clear he doesn’t have the votes yet,” a reference to McCarthy’s campaign to become speaker.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom granted 10 pardons Friday, including for several people convicted of drug crimes more than 20 years ago and someone facing the possibility of deportation.

The California Constitution gives the governor authority to grant clemency. A commutation reduces the length of a prison sentence. A pardon would effectively do the same, but it also restores certain civil rights for people who have already completed their sentences.

In several of the cases, the pardon recipients received a Certificate of Rehabilitation from superi-

or courts across the state after giving evidence that they had been “living an upright life” since their convictions.

Newsom looked at the recipients’ conduct after the offense, as well as whether the pardon is “consistent with public safety and in the interest of justice.” The governor also weighed how how a pardon would affect the community, including crime victims and survivors, a news release said.

Newsom has granted 140 pardons, 123 commutations and 35 reprieves since taking office in 2019.

US: Jan. 6 participant arrested after California standoff STEFANIE DAZIO | AP NEWS

Federal agents took a participant in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol into custody for his alleged role in the insurrection after an hourslong standoff Thursday, authorities said.

Eric Christie, 56, was arrested in the Sherman Oaks neighborhood of the San Fernando Valley, according to Laura Eimiller, an FBI spokesperson.

He initially refused to comply with federal agents’ orders but surrendered without incident after three hours of negotiations, Eimiller said. She would not comment on whether he was armed during the standoff.

Video and photographs from the insurrection, discovered by online sleuths, show Christie at the Capitol last year wrapped in a rainbow flag with a hammer attached to his belt, federal court documents state.

A video captured Christie yelling “this is our Capitol” into a bullhorn while the crowd rushes into the Capitol as police attempted to keep them back, according to court documents filed in connection with his California arrest.

A federal judge on Friday ordered Christie detained, according to Christie’s attorney, George Newhouse.

“We disagreed with the judge’s findings that he is a flight risk,” Newhouse said in an email to The Associated Press. “Mr. Christie will defend himself in Washington D.C. as he believes that his actions were within the zone of protection provided by the First Amendment.”

Christie’s arrest Thursday came the same day as the House Jan. 6 committee released its final report, concluding an 18-month investigation, asserting that Donald Trump criminally engaged in a “multi-part conspiracy” to overturn the lawful results of the 2020 presidential election and failed to act to stop his supporters from attacking the Capitol.

Christie faces federal charges of entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds with a deadly weapon, as well as disorderly or disruptive conduct in restricted building or grounds with a deadly weapon, according to court documents.

OPINION

Thursday, December 29 - Wednesday, January 04, 2023

DEAR ABBY ADVICE Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

DEAR ABBY: My husband and I were raised within religious communities. Among other conservative values, we were taught that a wife is to be responsible for domestic labor, and a husband is to be the primary breadwinner outside the home (yes, even in the ‘90s and 2000s). We were still deeply involved in these communities when we married at 21 and 22.

I wasn’t physically attracted to my husband at the time of our courtship or marriage, but he was (and still is) very kind to me. I was led to believe I was following God’s path by getting married, and the union allowed me to escape my domineering father.

The initial relief and freedom I experienced slowly evolved into feelings of resentment when I started realizing my husband is not equipped, emotionally or intellectually, to provide for the family I hoped for. Luckily, we have agreed that many of our families’ traditional values are simply not serving our needs.

I now enjoy a career and provide the majority of our income. I’m still responsible for most of the housework, despite many conversations about balancing the labor.

My husband recognizes that he needs to step up, but has struggled to follow through. Men doing housework was not modeled for him growing up, which makes it challenging. His heart is in the right place, but that doesn’t help me.

I feel burned out and alone. We have been in marriage counseling for a year; nothing has changed. I am turning 30 this year and starting to despair about the future of our marriage and the possibility of having children. I want a partner I can count on. Am I chasing a fantasy?

- DISILLUSIONED IN WASHINGTON DEAR DISILLUSIONED: I’m sorry to say this, but I’m afraid you may be. While you have escaped it, your husband is still trapped in the role he was raised to believe was his. The question really is, can he recognize this and adapt to the new circumstances? It would be wonderful if he could, but if it isn’t in the cards, you should not start a family with him.

DEAR ABBY: I have a much younger friend in another state, and we like to keep in touch. I prefer email, as I’m elderly, hard of hearing and look after my husband, who is having cognitive problems. I have no household help. My husband and I are both on restricted medical diets that require cooking most meals from scratch and we both have many medical appointments. Therefore, my free time is limited.

My friend prefers talking on the phone. She lives alone and has tons of free time. I have asked for her cellphone number so I can call her during my morning walk, which is the only free time I have, but she says she gives the number only to her grown children and doctors, and prefers to call me.

Each time I email, she says she “longs to hear my voice” and asks if she can call me. I have explained my reasons to her. How do I answer her repetitive pleas politely? I simply don’t have time to chat on the phone. I’ve wavered from this stance with only one other elderly friend, who doesn’t do email. It inconveniences me, but in her case, there is no other choice.

- COMMUNICATION WOES DEAR WOES: Does this woman not understand your situation? When she tells you she “longs to hear your voice,” keep repeating that taking care of your husband has to be your first priority. Explain, again, that the only time you have to talk with her is during your morning walk, so if she really longs to hear your voice, the only way it’s going to happen is if she gives you her cellphone number so you can reach out to her when you are available.

A DIFFERENT POINT OF VIEW

Our next President MUHAMMAD NAEEM | CONTRIBUTED

I

like to introduce you to our next president: Mike Pence. I know he hasn’t declared his bid for the presidency yet, but he will. He is a shrewd and calculating politician and he is just waiting to see which way the wind is blowing before he throws his hat into the race. Yes, he is saying that he is going to consult his family and pray for a sign, but that is all to build suspense. His family is going to urge him to go ahead with it. He’ll see just the right sign, and voila, he is going to run to become our president in 2024.

I believe Mike Pence is the best candidate. He is a man of principles. He is fiercely loyal to the Constitution, as we have seen, even under the threat of hanging. He did not waver from his duty to uphold its core tenets, no matter what everyone around him was urging him to do.

He is very religious, and he does not use the Bible just as a prop for some photo opportunity, as some have done to feed the media and to fool their base, but he actually lives by it. He really is very pious and

leads his life according to the dictates of his faith.

He can quote the Bible— properly—and recite it to get his point across. One can admire him for being so staunch in his spiritual convictions, even when the media makes light of his character. He has character, no doubt, with moral, virtuous, and honorable codes of conduct.

He is a good man, who loves his country, and it shows in everything that he does. One example, that makes him a hero, is his loyalty to the then president, up until the last minute of his vice-presidency. He did not take any cheap shots or speak out of line or disrespect the highly disrespectful individual who happened to be his boss. He held his peace, up until this very day, even though we all know that he has every right to say a thing or two about the way his boss treated him towards the end of his tenure.

He is also very loyal to his wife and to his family.

He lives his life according to his beliefs and we must admire every aspect of that. He speaks well of others. He does not disparage or insult his opponents. He does not

give nasty nicknames or demean those that don’t agree with him. He is fair in his assessment of his rivals. He speaks with care and chooses his words wisely. He represents all that is good in a leader and all that this nation stands for on the world stage. He knows what is right from wrong, and he is a true patriot, for he loves this country and wants us to stand tall among nations.

There is no better choice than him for our vote. President Biden has lost his luster and has fallen way short of his potential to bring the country together and to lead us into a better future. Ron DeSantis is a puppet, who changes his policies to become popular with the small base that is still supporting Trump and has no clear direction about leading the nation as a whole.

His vision is myopic and does not care about the majority that DID NOT vote for Trump, over 81 million of them. Not to mention those that opted not to vote at all, thus making the number of people that DID NOT vote for Trump much higher.

Then there is Trump himself. A shattered mirage that we believed in

and propelled him to such a high status, only to find out that he has no respect for our values, principles, and the Constitution. He has used our trust to cheat us and to enrich himself, without giving us anything in return, not even a polite thanks. He treats his base like sheep, to be fleeced whenever he can, to be slaughtered when he wants to, and to be treated like dirt at every opportunity.

Mike Pence says that there are better candidates to lead the Republican Party than Trump. I think he is the best candidate to not only lead the Republican Party, but to also lead this nation.

My vote goes for him, and I firmly believe that he is going to be our next president. He will appeal to all fine voters on both sides of the aisle.

He will make us proud, and he will help us hold our head high in the whole, entire world.

One thing for sure, he will guide us to a much better future, and I guarantee you that there will be no Photoshopped images of him being sold for $99 to a gullible and stupid populace.

$24 billion projected budget deficit may test California’s resolve to grow safety net amid recession ALEJANDRO LAZO AND JEANNE KUANG | CALMATTERS.ORG

C

alifornia faces a projected deficit next year even if the U.S. avoids a recession. Despite the expected shortfall, policymakers say they’ll maintain spending on social programs though advocates are calling for more.

The Legislative Analyst’s Office recently said in its annual forecast that Gov. Gavin Newsom and the Democratic Party-controlled Legislature are facing a $24 billion projected budget deficit for the next fiscal year.

If the state enters a recession the outlook is even worse, with revenues predicted to fall short by $30 billion to $50 billion.

The governor signed a record-breaking $308 billion budget in June.

The legislative analyst attributes the projected shortfall to California’s reliance on those whose incomes often ebb and flow with the price of stocks, real estate and other investments.

“Those are the same people who get a lot of their income from financial investments,” said Legislative Analyst Gabriel Petek.

“That volatility then gets transmitted directly to the state budget.”

The governor will present a proposed budget in January and then a revision in May. The budget, which the Legislature must approve, will fund state government for the fiscal year beginning July 1.

H.D. Palmer, spokesperson for the state Department of Finance, declined

to comment on whether social spending cuts might be proposed.

He did say, however, that the governor’s priority was to not scale back programs that people have come to depend on, or to begin new ones. Some program expansions in later fiscal years could be delayed if there isn’t enough revenue to support them, he said.

The goal is to avoid the kind of drastic program reductions enacted during the Great Recession that took years for the state to restore.

Building reserves The state’s Democratic legislative leaders have said they are not inclined to cut recently expanded programs, such as the extension of free health care to low-income undocumented immigrants, which began with older adults this year and is slated to open up to all ages in January 2024. The expansion is expected to cost more than $2 billion annually.

The budget is in a much stronger position than it was during the state’s last fiscal crisis, said Phil Ting, the Assembly budget committee chair from San Francisco.

“We have a significant amount of cash available, both in terms of reserves, but also in terms of liquidity,” Ting said. “So this is a very different situation than the state faced in 2008-2009, where they were running out of cash.”

The governor, nevertheless, has signaled he is being cautious. Newsom in October said he had vetoed 169 bills and saved taxpayers billions. Seventy-five of

those vetoes were directly budget related, with many including boilerplate language that the state was facing “lower-than-expected revenues” and that it was “important to remain disciplined when it comes to spending, particularly spending that is ongoing.”

Among the bills vetoed by the governor earlier this year were proposals to expand government-funded care for new mothers, expand free transit programs for California students and create grants for graduate students in mental health who commit to working at certain California-based nonprofits.

Newsom, whom voters elected to another fouryear term, has used surpluses to pay down debts, build reserves and provide direct payments to millions of Californians.

Recently Moody’s Analytics rated California one of the states most prepared for a recession, citing its reserves.

Nevertheless, California’s budget enacted in June 2021 committed to $3.4 billion in new ongoing spending and is expected to grow to $12 billion in the 2025 budget year. The budget enacted in June of this year committed an additional $2.3 billion, expected to grow to nearly $5 billion by the 2026 budget year, the Legislative Analyst’s Office said.

The state has $37 billion in specific reserve funds.

That includes about $23 billion in a rainy day fund voters agreed to strengthen in 2014 at the urging of then-Gov. Jerry Brown.

The state also has $900 million in a reserve account for safety net programs.

The rest of those reserve funds are in school-specific and general operating reserves.

But, Palmer noted, the state can only draw down the rainy day fund by half in any year. The Legislative Analyst’s Office has advised the Legislature to slow down or pause program expansions before dipping into reserves.

Ting’s office contends the state has billions in unspent federal and state dollars in its coffers that could address a potential deficit.

Using that money would avoid cuts to programs but delay other projects.

Is it time to spend?

Anti-poverty advocates said in interviews they plan to continue pushing for program expansions, arguing the precipice of a downturn is the time to bolster social spending, not cut it.

Nearly 30% of California residents live in or near poverty, according to the Public Policy Institute of California. Experts expect poverty rates to increase after the end of a boost in federal cash aid, which came in 2021 in the form of an expanded child tax credit included in the American Rescue Plan Act. Advocates are proposing that California mimic that federal expansion by opening up the state’s Young Child Tax Credit, currently a $1,000-a-year credit for low-income families with children under age 6, to include all children in low-income households.

They estimate 1 million children live in families

Be careful - your cell phone may disappear into a kiosk RUSTY STRAIT | SENIOR REPORTER

I

’ve had calls on my local TV show from several people complaining that their cell phones were disappearing and ending up at Walmart.

“I could really use your help, one viewer wrote. “My new I-phone 13 pro was stolen at a pizza parlor a couple of weeks ago. When I filed a police report the officer told me it would most likely turn up at Walmart. The phone was traced to the kiosk at Walmart.

“For more than a week now, my phone keeps tracking to a kiosk. I went to Walmart and all I got was a run-around from both their management and the kiosk owners’ machine owners who put you on hold when you call them and after 20 minutes, automatically disconnect.

“I paid $1100 for this particular brand of phone and failed to get insurance, so I am stuck. I need my phone.

I’m hoping that you can run this down and help me.”

I checked with management and they informed me that the kiosk was not theirs and so not Walmart’s problem. Walmart’s corporate of-

Congress,” Pelosi said.

“I can’t help but wonder, had he forgotten January 6th?”

Biden applauded the bill’s approval, saying it was proof that Republicans and Democrats can work together, and “I’m looking forward to continued bipartisan progress in the year ahead.”

“This bill is good for our economy, our competitiveness and our communities — and I will sign it into law as soon as it reaches my desk,” Biden said.

The Senate passed the defense-heavy measure with significant bipartisan support Thursday, but the vote was much more split in the House.

Some 30 GOP lawmakers promised to block any legislative priority that comes from those Republican senators who voted for the bill and leadership urged a no vote.

In the end, nine House Republicans voted for the bill. Seven of them are leaving Congress. Only Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania and Steve

that would qualify, at an additional cost of $700 million a year.

Additional tax credits could make a difference to people like Ivonne Sonato-Vega, a medical assistant in Santa Rosa.

Last year she used some of the $4,000 in federal child tax credits on school supplies and clothes for the four children she and her boyfriend are raising, she said. With prices rising this year, she was unable to save any of that subsidy.

If the credits were an annual payment, she said, it would allow her to plan for expenses, maybe use it as “a little savings account” to draw on when the children grow out of their clothes or save it for a security de-

VETERANS CORNER

All quiet on the Western Front RUSTY STRAIT | SENIOR REPORTER

Christmas Eve 1914

there came a joined choir of Christmas Carols, handshakes and peaceful greetings. There were tobacco and alcoholic spirits shared as though they were exchanging Christmas gifts. A British rifleman later wrote home to his wife.

“My company happened to be in the firing line on Christmas Eve and it was my turn to go into a ruined house and remain there until 6:30 Christmas morning. In the early morning, the Germans began to sing and shout at us in perfectly good English. ‘Are you the Rifle Brigade; have you a spare bottle; if so we will meet you halfway.’

“Later, they came towards us and our chaps went out to meet them.

We shook hands with some of them and they gave us cigarettes and cigars. It was like a dream.”

They were laughing and chatting with each other when only hours prior, they had been trying to kill one another.

A ball came from nowhere and soon, a soccer game was underway.

They made up goals and then it was just a general

kick-about. One British fighter estimated there were at least 200 participants romping about no man’s land like little boys at school.

One German Lieutenant would later comment, “How marvelously wonderful, yet how strange it was. The English officers felt the same way about it. Thus Christmas, the celebration of Love, managed to bring mortal enemies together as friends for a time.

There is now a Memorial standing in England’s National Memorial Arboretum commemorating this Christmas Truce, dedicated by Prince William of England. On the 100th anniversary in 2014, the English and German national soccer teams staged a friendly match in England in honor of the impromptu soccer games of 1914. (England won 1-0).

Never has the stupidity of war been so personalized. Those former enemies now stand ready as allies in NATO. One would hope men would learn but they never do.

fices in Bentonville, Arkansas, promised to get back to both the citizens and me and to date have not.

See the attached photo of the kiosk involved. There is no method for the machine owners to know if they are receiving a legitimate phone as they dole out their dollars or a purloined one.

One might wonder how a major retail store can house a machine that deals in stolen merchandise?

This is just a new scam for thieves who will steal any and everything that is not nailed down and usually you cannot trace the stolen item. In this case, you can.

Folks, if you place your phone on the counter or table

in a restaurant or coffee house while you get your order or go to the restroom, you are subjecting yourself to a “byebye baby” result. So it is wise to keep your cell phone on your person at all times. Going to the police will not get it back unless you can identify the thief and find them with it in hand. Every year at this time, thieves abound in every type and species. Just because some guy looks okay doesn’t mean he wouldn’t steal you blind. This is just a new weapon in the thief’s arsenal and believe me; they have dozens of methods through which to bilk you of your possessions.

So the owner beware. Just sayin’. rustystrait@gmail.com

It was Christmas Eve in World War I. The Germans and the Allies had been going at it hot and heavy. Each side is anchored in its trenches. It all began before midnight and went on into Christmas Day. All was quiet. A soldier spoke to his buddy.

“Do you hear that?”

“Yeah. They’ve been at it for a while.”

The Germans were singing Christmas Carols. In the dark and silent night a voice called out, “Come over here.”

A soldier called back, “You come halfway. I come halfway.”

What happened next would prove to the world that we don’t need to fight and need a reason not to fight.

Across the barbed wire “No man’s Land” that separated the two armies, something happened that would eventually stun and amaze the world. Where only hours earlier, it would have been sudden death to wander out of their positions. Instead,

Womack of Arkansas are returning. The lone Democrat to vote against the measure was Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York.

The bill runs for 4,155 pages, not including amendments the Senate added. It contains about a 6% percent increase in spending for domestic initiatives, to $772.5 billion.

Spending on defense programs will increase by about 10% to $858 billion.

The bill’s passage came only hours before financing for federal agencies was set to expire. Lawmakers had passed two stopgap spending measures to keep the government operating, and a third, funding the government through Dec. 30, passed Friday and was signed by Biden.

That ensured services continue until Biden could sign the full-year measure, called an omnibus, into law.

The massive bill wraps together 12 appropriations bills, aid to Ukraine and disaster relief for communities recovering from hurricanes, flooding and wildfires. It also contains scores of policy

changes that lawmakers worked to include in the final major bill considered by the current Congress.

Lawmakers provided roughly $45 billion for Ukraine and NATO allies, more than even Biden requested, an acknowledgment that future rounds of funding are not guaranteed with a new GOPled House.

In a dramatic address to a joint meeting of Congress on Wednesday night, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy told lawmakers that the aid was not charity, but an investment in global security and democracy.

Though Ukraine aid has largely had bipartisan support, some House Republicans have been critical of the effort, arguing the money is better spent on priorities in the U.S. “How can we send an additional $47 BILLION to Ukraine for security while terrorists, drugs, and criminals flood our southern border?” tweeted Rep. Matt Rosendale, R-Mont. “$100 billion to Ukraine. Let’s put that in perspective,” tweeted Rep.

Thomas Massie, R-Ky., who included past rounds of aid in his count. “That’s more than $200 million this year from each Congressional district. What could your congressman have done for your district with $200 million?”

McCarthy has warned that Republicans would not write a “blank check” for Ukraine in the next Congress. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said after Thursday’s vote he’s having trouble understanding the concerns.

“I’m just befuddled by some of these right-wing Republicans who don’t want to help Ukraine,” Schumer said. “It’s always been, the more hard right you were, the more anti-Soviet you were, but all of a sudden, they’re pro. I hope it’s not a residue of Trump.”

The Senate passed the funding package Thursday by a vote of 68-29 but it takes time for the Senate clerk’s office to review the bill and include amendments that were added that day. As a result, the bill ended up passing with a half-empty House chamber. More than 220 lawmakers sought the option to vote

by proxy, and many raced to get out of town before risking canceled flights and spending Christmas in Washington.

Republicans have vowed that abolishing the practice of remote voting will be among their first acts in the majority next year.

The funding bill also contains roughly $40 billion in emergency spending in the U.S., mostly to assist communities across the country recovering from drought, hurricanes and other natural disasters.

And it has scores of policy changes largely unrelated to spending that lawmakers worked furiously behind the scenes to include, else they start from scratch next year in a divided Congress where Republicans will be returning to the majority in the House.

One of the most notable examples was a historic revision to federal election law that aims to prevent any future presidents or presidential candidates from trying to overturn an election.

The bipartisan overhaul of the Electoral Count Act is in direct response

to former President Donald Trump’s efforts to persuade Republican lawmakers and then-Vice President Mike Pence to object to the certification of Biden’s victory on Jan. 6, 2021.

Among the spending increases Democrats emphasized: a $500 increase in the maximum size of Pell grants for low-income college students, a $100 million increase in block grants to states for substance abuse prevention and treatment programs, a 22% increase in spending on VA medical care and $3.7 billion to provide emergency relief to farmers and ranchers hit by natural disasters, just to name a few.

The bill also provides roughly $15.3 billion for more than 7,200 projects that lawmakers sought for their home states and districts. Under revamped rules for community project funding, also referred to as earmarks, lawmakers must post their requests online and attest they have no financial interest in the projects. Still, many fiscal conservatives criticize the earmarking as leading to unnecessary spending.

Newsom’s pardons Friday included: —U.S Army veteran John Berger, who was convicted of transporting a controlled substance in 1994. He now works to support others with their sobriety.

—Kathy Uetz, who was convicted of drug-related crimes in 1997 and has since volunteered more

than 5,000 hours with a community emergency response team.

— Santiago Lopez, who was convicted of drug crimes in 2001 at 19 years old. He is now a facility manager of his church, as well as a peer counselor and, with his wife, the founder of a non-profit for youth leaders.

—Lucas Beltran Domin-

guez, 60, who faces deportation and family separation because of his conviction for transporting or selling marijuana and possession of marijuana for sale. The father of seven is an active member of his church.

—Michael Farrier, who was convicted of first-degree burglary and second-degree robbery.

—Kimberly Gregorio, who was sentenced to four years of probation and 180 days in jail in 1988 for possession of a controlled substance for sale and obstructing an officer.

—James King Ill, who has a conviction for selling cocaine.

— Kenneth Lyerly, who was sentenced in 2004 for a conviction of possession

of a controlled substance for sale.

—Jimmy Picton, who has convictions from the 1970s for trespassing and possession of a controlled substance for sale.

—Julie Ruehle, who was sentenced to prison at 19 years old in 1999 for possession of a controlled substance and taking a vehicle without consent.

“It was kind of like a tease,” she said of the credit. “It was here and then not.”

Advocates said they also want the state to create an unemployment benefits program for undocumented immigrants and to include all low-income immigrants, regardless of immigration status, in its food assistance program.

“We know the projected budget shortfalls make it more challenging, but the past few years highlighted why something like this is so important,” said Sasha Feldstein, economic justice policy manager at the California Immigrant Policy Center. “People who are excluded from our safety net have been the most adversely impacted from the COVID-19 pandemic

and are the most harmed during times of economic downturn.”

Lawmakers and Newsom this year allocated money to expand the California Food Assistance Program, a state version of food stamps, to include undocumented immigrants age 55 and older; the benefits are expected to become available late next year.

Newsom vetoed a bill that would have tested an unemployment benefits program for undocumented immigrants, citing costs.

pandemic. After financial markets rebounded and the federal government provided unprecedented stimulus, the anticipated shortfall resulted in surpluses.

The Federal Reserve began hiking interest rates in March 2022 to cool inflation. Then housing sales, initial public stock offerings and stock markets fell.

All are important sources of personal income tax revenue.

In California, personal income withholding fell even as the job market recovered.

Over the last decade, California has increasingly relied on some of the state’s highest earners to fund its budget which, among other things, takes aim at poverty and some of the nation’s starkest income inequality.

Much of the state’s general fund is paid for by its progressive personal income tax, which voters in 2012 raised on the state’s highest earners after Brown warned of cuts to health and education.

In 2016 voters extended those higher income tax rates through 2030 while also allowing a temporary sales tax to expire.

The increases, meant for education and healthcare spending, have also paid for increased social safety net spending.

About 49% of the personal income tax paid in California in 2020 came from just 1% of tax filers, according to the state’s finance department. And in the past decade, taxes collected from the most volatile form of income — capital gains — have doubled, making up a larger

share of the state’s revenue and tying the state’s budget to particularly unstable economic cycles.

To address that, voters approved changes to the state’s rainy day fund in 2014. The changes serve as a check on spending, directing California to capture additional dollars in reserve when capital gains tax receipts are high.

Building reserves large enough for a state to ride through a recession is difficult, said Donald Boyd, a state finance expert at the University of Albany in New York.

“As a practical matter, it is very hard to build a rainy day fund that’s big enough to get you through a rainy season,” Boyd said.

“You need huge amounts of money to offset the effects of even a modest recession.”

The makings of a budget problem The projected shortfall is the state’s first major fiscal challenge since Newsom’s office predicted a $54 billion shortfall in May 2020, when the country was in the grips of the COVID-19

ew Year’s Eve is upon us again, and with it, there is no shortage of activities across Riverside County. From the Festival of Lights at the Mission Inn in Riverside to one of the county's most original New Year’s Eve celebrations, The Temecula New Year’s Eve Grape Drop.

"There’s still time to see the Festival of Lights brighten up every corner of The Mission Inn," according to an Inn spokesperson. The Festival of Lights brightens the historic Mission Inn in Riv-

erside and runs through January 5.

There, a glowing grape bunch, measuring 12 feet long and 7 feet wide, and representative of the area’s award-winning wine country, is lowered from the tower at City Hall at the stroke of midnight— at both 9 p.m. and 12 a.m.

The large cluster of illuminated grapes is gradually reeled down 65 feet from the third story of the Civic Center clock tower, marking the seconds before midnight. Temecula Valley is home to dozens of vintners, and grapes are the staple product.

The two countdown celebrations are open to

the public outside Temecula City Hall and will feature live music, food vendors and children's activities.

This Massive Southern California Antique Mall is a Must Visit TRAVEL MAVEN | CONTRIBUTOR

T

here's nothing better than spending a day hunting for a bargain, picking up locally crafted items, and rummaging for hidden treasures. California is home to many wonderful antique shops but none are quite as big as the in-

famous Granny's Attic in Temecula.

Located just off I-15 in Riverside County, Granny's Attic is an incredible antique mall that's known as being one of the largest and best in California.

Granny's is a three-time award winner and is conveniently centrally located just 45 minutes from San Diego and 90 minutes

The store spans a whopping 30,000 sq feet with two floors to explore.

Granny's Attic is a onestop shop for all things unique. Their seemingly endless collection of antiques includes furniture, glassware, jewelry, vinyl records, cars, and a long list of other miscellaneous items and collectibles.

Walking through this old-time railroad-themed store is a lot like walking through a museum, you'll be able to see a ton of exciting and well-preserved relics of the past that are simply fascinating.

Is Real Estate Syndication The Right Investment Strategy For You? FERAS MOUSSA | CONTRIBUTED

I

f you're interested in supplementing your primary income, investing in real estate can be the right avenue. Unlike most other income streams, real estate investments offer flexibility when it comes to your involvement. You can either be an active investor who manages a property, or you can approach it from a minimal-effort standpoint.

If you're looking to do the latter, then an investment opportunity to consider is real estate syndication. But first, you need to understand how they work, including their benefits and potential risks, before you make a decision.

What Are Real Estate Syndications?

A real estate syndication takes place when investors collectively group their re-

sources, capital and competencies to buy a property, such as apartments, self-storage facilities, mobile home parks, hotels and more. Income distributions from these investments typically come in monthly or quarterly installments, with a return on investment coming from the property's eventual sale.

In a syndication, there are general partners and limited partners. General partners make the deal happen. They find the building and the investors, and once the property is closed, they work with the necessary property management companies and contractors to ensure the investment is successful. The investors, known as limited partners, provide the bulk of the capital. As the name implies, their responsibility (and liability) is limited. However, limited partners pay an assortment of fees—such as acquisition and manage-

ment fees—which can impact their potential returns compared to the general investors.

If you're interested in real estate syndication, the most important step you can take is getting educated. After all, one of the biggest risks is who you partner with. So, do plenty of research on your options for syndications to join. For example, review public records to see if they invest in the kind of properties that interest you, reach out to your network to see who has firsthand experience with any syndications and make sure none of the partners have been involved in a financial scandal. After you've found some options that could work, meet each team. Ask about their industry background, previous investment returns and their structure for paying out returns. Then, ask them

McClinton, then 17, was part of an armed group that robbed a CVS pharmacy in Indianapolis in 2015 in search of prescription medicines, including opioids. The take was meager, about $68 worth of drugs, McClinton’s lawyers said in court papers. After one member of the group refused to share the proceeds, he was fatally shot in the back of the head at close range.

The reputed leader and other members of the group testified against McClinton at trial, as part of their bid for reduced prison terms, McClinton’s lawyers wrote.

Even with the testimony, jurors acquitted McClinton of the most serious charges against him. He should have faced six years in prison, at most.

Instead, the trial judge gave McClinton 19 years, finding that it was more likely than not that McClinton was responsible for the killing. The legal

Prevent Serious Damage; Keep Drunk Family and Friends Off the Road A car alarm installation may help reduce the risk, but it does not give you the assurance of road safety. So, aside from educating your family and friends about the dangers of drunk driving, you have to keep them off the road when drunk.

This way, you can prevent crashes and other serious incidents:

the night. If you hosted the party, have a room for your friends to stay in and sleep over. This is so they can have a place to stay when they become sober.

Impaired driving is a serious offense, and the consequences can result in injuries and high costs.

If you get arrested for a

• Repairs - Collisions can cause your car to suffer serious damage, hence the need for repairs. And in case you don't know, auto glass replacement can be a bit pricey.

• Imprisonment - Drunk driving can cause you to go to jail. And the possibility of being imprisoned increases if you damage property or cause harm to others. If found guilty, you will have a criminal record, and future employers will know this.

• License Suspension On the first offense, your driver's license may be confiscated, depending on state laws. This suspension may last for a certain timeframe, depending on the offense and other factors.

• Fines - The fees vary per state but generally include civil penalties,

estate appreciation. REITs typically own income-producing real estate properties across various properties and sectors. They're publicly traded, like stocks, which makes them incredibly liquid and a passive investment vehicle for investors.

Both of these investment vehicles have strong advantages, but it's important to examine the cons to understand what the right investment vehicle is for you.

Buying a rental property, for example, is not completely passive, and dealing with tenants, maintenance and management can be a tedious, stressful process.

Additionally, rental properties have the problem of relying on a single tenant, or a few select, to pay the mortgage. If you buy a property and can't find a tenant or get unlucky with

a bad tenant, the investment can go south. REITs, meanwhile, are 100% passive, but investors cannot obtain many of the tax benefits of real estates, such as depreciation-related reductions in taxes.

Instead, REIT investments are taxed the same as holding any other equity.

When comparing real estate syndications to REITs and rental properties, syndications are an opportunity to blend the best of both worlds. They allow you to invest in real estate—thus gaining the cash flow, appreciation and tax advantages—in a completely passive way. Syndications also hold multiple tenants, reducing the risk of one vacancy or an unexpected maintenance issue.

Still, no method of investment, including syndication, is without risk. Real

estate is a volatile market, properties can underperform and the terms you set now for selling your interest might not be ideal in the future.

What Returns Can Real Estate Syndications Earn?

Many real estate syndications earn in two ways.

First, investors can collect rental income while they hold the property. Then, when the property sells, investors can receive their original investment back along with any appreciation the property has incurred.

Though it varies depending on the company, syndications typically last at least three years and earn anywhere between 7% to 10% per year in property rental income. This is referred to as your cash-oncash return and is distributed to passive investors

standard in a jury trial is higher, proof beyond a reasonable doubt.

Upholding McClinton’s prison term, Judge Ilana Rovner wrote for a unanimous three-judge panel of the Chicago-based 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that lower-court judges are bound by a 1997 Supreme Court ruling that “a jury’s verdict of acquittal does not prevent the sentencing court from considering conduct underlying the acquitted charge, so long as that conduct has been proved by a preponderance of the evidence.”

But Rovner noted that a growing number of federal judges “have questioned the fairness and constitutionality of allowing courts to factor acquitted conduct into sentencing calculations.”

Seventeen former federal judges also signed on to a brief in support of McClinton.

McClinton’s lawyers argue that the high court’s intervention is past due.

“Unless this Court resolves this issue, tens of thousands of criminal defendants will continue to be sentenced using sentencing practices that are impossible to square with the Constitution,” they

wrote.

The Justice Department urged the court to reject the appeal, as it did in many similar cases in the past.

There’s no certainty about what the justices will do. Berman, the sentencing expert, said there are reasons the court could take a pass again, including a preference for Congress to deal with the issue by legislation or for the Sentencing Commission to address it.

Neither has, over more than two decades, though the House in March passed legislation prohibiting punishment of acquitted conduct. The Senate has not taken any action.

Another reason for caution, Berman said, is that some justices might feel that they would craft at best a rough rule with the potential for unintended consequences that include restricting judicial discretion more than they want.

Jackson also might have to weigh whether this is a topic she wants to take on in her first term, already filled with consequential cases on race, elections and the latest dispute involving people with religious objections to samesex marriage.

Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson testifies during her Senate Judiciary Committee confirmation hearing on Capitol Hill in Washington, March 23, 2022. In courtrooms across America, defendants get additional prison time for crimes that juries found they didn’t commit. The Supreme Court is being asked, again, to put an end to the practice. It’s possible that the newest member of the court and a former federal public defender, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, could hold a pivotal vote. | Courtesy Photo by Alex Brandon

Myth #4: The alcohol content in your drink doesn’t matter.

It is worth emphasizing that alcohol is still alcohol. Drink too much, and you will be impaired.

This applies to all alcoholic beverages, such as liquor, wine, and beer.

But where did this myth come from in the first place?

Beer is 4% alcohol by volume (ABV), whereas hard liquor is 40% ABV. And drinking any of these two at the same rate means getting drunk faster with the latter. That is perhaps the reason people believe drinking beer before getting behind the

Myth #5: The penny trick should fool a breath test Some drivers believe that putting a copper penny under the tongue has no effect on breath tests. Yes, that myth persists. But no penny, ingredients, or objects can actually alter the results of breathalyzer tests. If you are impaired, it will show in the results, and you can put your life or others in danger.

What Happens When You Insist to Drink and Drive?

Here are some other ways that can help: • Convince them not to drive once they feel too tired or when drunk. You can keep their keys and be firm about not letting them drive.

• Book an Uber or call a taxi. Don't let them drive home.

• Drive them home. If you did not drink alcohol, volunteer to take your friend home.

• Ask them to stay for as monthly or annual distributions. When the time comes to sell the building, the market price for a large commercial real estate venture is proportional to how much it earns in rental income. When a property is purchased and renovated to increase revenue, the building can appreciate and sell over the original purchase price.

• You're looking for monthly, quarterly or annual passive income from your real estate investments.

• You're financially able to meet the typical $25k to $75 investment minimum of real estate syndications.

• You're a sophisticated or accredited investor.

• You don't need immediate access to your investment funds.

How the brain stores remote fear memory UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA | CONTRIBUTED

A

remote fear memory is a memory of traumatic events that occurred in the distant past — a few months to decades ago. A University of California, Riverside, mouse study published in Nature Neuroscience has now spelled out the fundamental mechanisms by which the brain consolidates remote fear memories.

The study demonstrates that remote fear memories formed in the distant past are permanently stored in connections between memory neurons in the prefrontal cortex, or PFC. “It is the prefrontal memory circuits that are progressively strengthened after traumatic events and this strengthening plays a critical role in how fear memories mature to stabilized forms in the cerebral cortex for permanent

storage,” said Jun-Hyeong Cho, an associate professor of molecular, cell and systems biology, who led the study. “Using a similar mechanism, other non-fear remote memories could also be permanently stored in the PFC.” The brain uses distinct mechanisms to store recent versus remote fear memories. Previous studies have suggested that while the initial formation of fear memory involves the hippocampus, it progressively matures with time and becomes less dependent on the hippocampus. Much research now explains how recent fear memory is stored, but how the brain consolidates remote fear memories is not well understood.

The researchers focused on the PFC, a part of the cerebral cortex that has been implicated in remote memory consolidation in previous studies.

“We found a small group of nerve cells or neurons within the PFC, termed

memory neurons, were active during the initial traumatic event and were reactivated during the recall of remote fear memory,” Cho said. “When we selectively inhibited these memory neurons in the PFC, it prevented the mice recalling remote but not recent fear memory, suggesting the critical role of PFC memory neurons in the recall of remote fear memories.”

In the experiments, the mice received an aversive stimulus in an environment called a context. They learned to associate the aversive stimulus with the context. When exposed to the same context a month later, the mice froze in response, indicating they could recall remote fear memories. The researchers showed that connections (synapses) between memory neurons in the PFC, termed prefrontal memory circuits, were gradually strengthened with time after fear learning, and such strengthening helped the

PFC permanently store remote fear memories.

Next, to extinguish the remote fear memory in the mice, the researchers repeatedly exposed the mice to the same fear-predictive context but without the aversive stimulus. The result was a reduced fear response to the context.

“Interestingly, the extinction of remote fear memory weakened the prefrontal memory circuits that were previously strengthened to store the remote fear memory,” Cho said. “Moreover, other manipulations that blocked the strengthening of the PFC memory circuits also prevented the recall of remote fear memory.”

Cho explained that a dysregulation of fear memory consolidation can lead to chronic maladaptive fear in PTSD, which affects about 6% of the population at some point in their lives.

“Considering that PTSD patients suffer from fear memories formed in the distant past, our study pro-

vides an important insight into developing therapeutic strategies to suppress chronic fear in PTSD patients,” he said.

Next, Cho’s team plans to selectively weaken the prefrontal memory circuits and examine whether this

manipulation suppresses the recall of remote fear memories.

“We expect the results will contribute to developing a more effective intervention in PTSD and other fear-related disorders,” Cho said.

Riverside County’s COVID Long COVID: Could mono virus Hospitalizations Drop Slightly or fat cells be playing roles?

The number of people hospitalized with a coronavirus infection in Riverside County declined by 17 to 191, according to the state.

he number of people hospitalized with a coronavirus infection in Riverside County declined by 17 to 191, according to the latest state data.

Of those patients hospitalized as of Saturday, the number being treated in intensive care was 27, down from 28 the pervious day.

One month ago, 105 people were hospitalized throughout the county with a COVID infection, 12 of whom were ICU patients, according to the Riverside University Health System.

According to the RUHS, the total number of deaths from likely virus- related complications over the past 32 months stands at 6,694.

The figure posted last week was 6,697. It is one of several downward revisions that have occurred in the last three months as a result of an ongoing data reassessment by the California Department of Public

RUHS figures show that, among those who died while hospitalized with a COVID diagnosis in October, 42% had received the full SARS-CoV-2 therapeutic. That compares to 44% who died in September after receiving the complete regimen, according to data. The total number of fatalities in October was 12, and in September, 16.

The deaths weren’t classified as stemming directly from an infection, co-morbidities, or possible adverse reactions to the vaccines.

November figures are slated to be released at the end of this month.

Health officials said the aggregate number of COVID cases recorded since the public health documentation period began in March 2020 is 714,426.

British historian, an Italian archaeologist and an American preschool teacher have never met in person, but they share a prominent pandemic bond.

Plagued by eerily similar symptoms, the three women are credited with describing, naming and helping bring long COVID into the public’s consciousness in early 2020.

Rachel Pope, of Liverpool, took to Twitter in late March 2020 to describe her bedeviling symptoms, then unnamed, after a coronavirus infection. Elisa Perego in Italy first used the term “long COVID,” in a May tweet that year. Amy Watson in Portland, Oregon, got inspiration in naming her Facebook support group from the trucker cap she’d been wearing, and “long hauler” soon became part of the pandemic lexicon.

Nearly three years into the pandemic, scientists are still trying to figure out why some people get long COVID and why a small portion — including the three women — have last-

Millions of people worldwide have had long COVID, reporting various symptoms including fatigue, lung problems, and brain fog and other neurological symptoms.

Evidence suggests most recover substantially within a year, but recent data show that it has contributed to more than 3,500 U.S. deaths.

Here’s some of the latest evidence: WOMEN MORE AT RISK? Many studies and anecdotal evidence suggest that

women are more likely than men to develop long COVID. There could be biological reasons.

Women’s immune systems generally mount stronger reactions to viruses, bacteria, parasites and other germs, noted Sabra Klein, a Johns Hopkins professor who studies immunity.

Women are also much more likely than men to have autoimmune diseases, where the body mistakenly attacks its own healthy cells. Some scientists be-

Public Notices in this newspaper help me participate in my community.

State law requires government entities at all levels, from water districts to city councils and school boards, to place notices of many of their activities in a legal newspaper. This is a legal newspaper. I subscribe to it, and I read it.

I read legal notices to find out when those people will meet, what rules and laws they’re talking about and when I can offer my two cents worth.

Would a similar notice posted somewhere on the internet alert me to what’s going on around here?

The answer to that is obvious.

No, it would not.

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 on 03/14/2023 at 08:30 A.M. in Dept. T1 located at 41002 COUNTY CENTER DRIVE, #100 TEMECULA, CA 92591. 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.

COVID

HEALTH

from D1

lieve long COVID could result from an autoimmune response triggered by the virus.

Women’s bodies also tend to have more fat tissue and emerging research suggests the coronavirus may hide in fat after infection. Scientists also are studying whether women’s fluctuating hormone levels may increase the risks.

Another possible factor: Women are more likely than men to seek health care and often more attuned to changes in their bodies, Klein noted.

“I don’t think we should ignore that,” she said. Biology and behavior are probably both at play, Klein said.

It may thus be no coincidence that it was three women who helped shine the first light on long COVID. Pope, 46, started chronicling what she was experiencing in March 2020: flulike symptoms, then her lungs, heart and joints were affected. After a month she started having some “OK” days, but symptoms persisted.

Thursday, December 29 - Wednesday, January 04, 2023 She and some similarly ill colleagues connected with Perego on Twitter.

“We started sort of coming together because it was literally the only place where we could do that,” Pope said. “In 2020, we would joke that we’d get together for Christmas and have a party,” Pope said. “Then obviously it went on, and I think we stopped joking.”

Watson started her virtual long haulers group that April. The others soon learned of that nickname and embraced it.

MONO VIRUS Several studies suggest the ubiquitous Epstein-Barr virus could play a role in some cases of long COVID. Inflammation caused by coronavirus infection can activate herpes viruses, which remain in the body after causing an acute infection, said Dr. Timothy Henrich, a virus expert at the University of California, San Francisco.

Epstein-Barr virus is among the most common of these herpes viruses: An estimated 90% of the U.S. population has been infected with it. The virus can cause mononucleosis

or symptoms that may be dismissed as a cold.

Henrich is among researchers who have found immune markers signaling Epstein-Barr reactivation in the blood of long COVID patients, particularly those with fatigue.

Not all long COVID patients have these markers.

But it’s possible that Epstein-Barr is causing symptoms in those who do, although scientists say more study is needed.

Some scientists also believe that Epstein-Barr triggers chronic fatigue syndrome, a condition that bears many similarities to long COVID, but that also is unproven.

OBESITY Obesity is a risk factor for severe COVID-19 infections and scientists are trying to understand why.

Stanford University researchers are among those who have found evidence that the coronavirus can infect fat cells. In a recent study, they found the virus and signs of inflammation in fat tissue taken from people who had died from COVID. Lab tests showed that the virus can reproduce in

fat tissue. That raises the possibility that fat tissue could serve as a “reservoir,” potentially fueling long COVID. Could removing fat tissue treat or prevent some cases of long COVID? It’s a tantalizing question, but the research is preliminary, said Dr. Catherine Blish, a Stanford infectious diseases professor and a senior author of the study.

Scientists at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center are studying leptin, a hormone produced by fat cells that can influence the body’s immune response and promote inflammation.

They plan to study whether injections of a manufactured antibody could reduce leptin levels — and in turn inflammation from coronavirus infections or long COVID. “We have a good scientific basis together with some preliminary data to argue that we might be on the right track,” said Dr. Philipp Scherer.

DURATION It has been estimated that about 30% of people infected with the coronavirus will develop long

www.HSJChronicle.com COVID, based on data from earlier in the pandemic.

Most people who have lingering, recurrent or new symptoms after infection will recover after about three months. Among those with symptoms at three months, about 15% will continue to have symptoms for at least nine more months, according to a recent study in the Journal of the American Medical Association.

Figuring out who’s at risk for years-long symptoms “is such a complicated question,” said Dr. Lawrence Purpura, an infectious disease expert at Columbia University.

Those with severe infections seem to be more at risk for long COVID, although it can also affect people with mild infections. Those whose infections cause severe lung damage including scarring may experience breathlessness, coughing or fatigue for more than a year.

And a smaller group of patients with mild initial COVID-19 infections may develop neurologic symptoms for more than a year, including chronic fatigue and brain fog, Purpura

said.

“The majority of patients will eventually recover,” he said. “It’s important for people to know that.”

It’s small consolation for the three women who helped the world recognize long COVID. Perego, 44, developed heart, lung and neurologic problems and remains seriously ill.

She knows that scientists have learned a lot in a short time, but she says “there is a gap” between long COVID research and medical care.

“We need to translate scientific knowledge into better treatment and policy,” she said.

Watson, approaching 50, says she has “never had any kind of recovery.” She has had severe migraines, plus digestive, nerve and foot problems. Recently she developed severe anemia.

She wishes the medical community had a more organized approach to treating long COVID. Doctors say not knowing the underlying cause or causes makes that difficult.

“I just want my life back,” Watson said, “and it’s not looking like that’s all that possible.”

TENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself.

Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee’s sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale.

If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 916-939-0772 or visit this internet website www.nationwideposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case 2022-10504. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not be immediately reflected in the telephone information or on the internet website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code.

If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction.

If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 916-939-0772, or visit this internet website www.nationwideposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case 2022-10504 to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid, by remitting the funds and affidavit or declaration described in Section 2924m(c) of the Civil Code, so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.
