California budget: More for homelessness, less for climate SOPHIE AUSTIN AND JANIE HAR | AP NEWS

C

alifornia Gov. Gavin Newsom on Tuesday proposed a $297 billion budget, prioritizing money to address homelessness and education while cutting some climate spending amid a projected $22.5 billion budget deficit.

The proposed budget, which would take effect July 1, is about $9 billion less than the current fiscal year, when Newsom had a massive surplus.

One of the reasons why California isn’t bringing in as much revenue as expected is because wealthy taxpayers are making less money because of a weakened economy and stumbling stock market.

Newsom’s proposed budget will change as tax revenues come in later this year and won’t take effect until July 1.

HOW DOES NEWSOM WANT TO COVER THE SHORTFALL? Through a combination of de-

layed spending, shifting expenses and cuts.

Newsom wants to delay $7.4 billion of spending, pushing it to future years. He wants to shift $4.3 billion of expenses to other accounts outside of the state’s general fund and limit borrowing to account for another $1.2 billion.

Newsom is proposing $9.6 billion in cuts. Of those, $5.7 billion would be permanent reductions.

The rest of the cuts — $3.9 billion — could come back if the state has more money in the budget than currently anticipated. The cuts are spread throughout the budget, including scaling back some of Newsom’s ambitious climate proposals. But most of the state’s major programs and services, including public education and major health care assistance programs, were not affected.

HOUSING AND HOMELESSNESS Even with revenue shrinking, Newsom is allocating more money to addressing homelessness.

His proposal includes $3.4 billion for homelessness, with $400 million to clean up tent encampments and $1 billion for cities and counties to reduce the number of people living outdoors.

He has stated repeatedly to local officials that they won’t get money until they submit bolder plans to reduce homelessness and residents start seeing a difference on the streets.

Newsom is not backing down from building more housing given that the state’s homelessness crisis is tied to a severe lack of new construction. His administration has pushed policy changes to streamline new home construction and has become more aggressive in ordering cities and counties to build more homes.

But the proposed budget includes a $350 million reduction in loans, technical and other assistance for new homebuyers.

T

he family of a slain Southern California sheriff ’s deputy on Friday demanded the resignation of a judge who had previously released the lawman’s shooter despite a violent criminal record.

Riverside County Deputy Isaiah Cordero, 32, was fatally shot Dec. 29 during a traffic stop in the city of Jurupa Valley, east of Los Angeles.

Cordero had pulled over a pickup truck and the driver, 44-yearold William Shae McKay, pulled a gun and shot the deputy as he approached the vehicle, authorities said. Law enforcement pursued McKay in a “massive manhunt” that included a chase along freeways in two counties.

McKay was killed during a shootout with deputies after the truck crashed.

Rebecca Cordero said she last saw her son on Christmas Eve. “We do not know how we are supposed to carry on without you,” she said. “Your selflessness and determination will not be forgotten.”

Although Cordero was officially killed by gunfire, Rebecca Cordero blamed the current political climate and anti-law enforcement sentiments, as well as San Bernardino Superior Court Judge Cara D. Hutson. Requests for comment were sent Friday to Hutson and the court’s spokesperson.

“The actual cause of death: disdain, disrespect, disregard, a dysfunctional system that has unfairly been politicized,” Rebecca Cordero said.

McKay had a long and violent criminal history stretching back to before 2000 that included kidnapping, robbery and multiple arrests for assault with a deadly

background investigator failed to check a wouldbe trooper's mental health history, allowing him to be hired for the Virginia State Police the year before he sexually extorted and kidnapped a 15-year-old girl and killed three members of her family in California, officials said.

Col. Gary Settle, the Virginia State Police superintendent, wrote in a Dec. 30 letter to the state's inspector general that the hiring of Austin Lee Edwards, of North Chesterfield, despite his 2016 involuntary admittance to a psychiatric facility, was “the direct result of human error” and appeared to be an isolated incident.

Edwards was hired by the state police in July 2021 and resigned nine months later. He was then hired as a deputy sheriff in Washington County, Virginia, last November, just nine days before the killings in California.

The slayings — and their connection to Virginia — prompted Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin to ask the state's inspector general for a “full investigation.”

Edwards had posed online as a 17-year-old boy while communicating with the 15-year-old girl in California, a form of deception known as “catfishing.” He asked her to send nude photos of herself and she stopped responding to his messages.

On Nov. 25, Edwads killed the girl’s mother and grandparents, then set fire to their home in Riverside, a city about 50 miles southeast of downtown Los Angeles.

Edwards died by suicide during a shootout with San Bernardino sheriff ’s deputies the same day.

The girl was rescued. Riverside detectives are still investigating what prompted Edwards to drive across the country and whether he planned the killings in advance.

Settle's letter was first reported

MAN ACCUSED OF DEADLY RIVERSIDE STABBING ENTERS INSANITY PLEA The man police say stabbed another man to death inside a Riverside home late last year is changing his plea.

Cornelius Brogan, 29, of Dayton, entered a not guilty by reason of insanity plea in last week, according to court documents filed in Montgomery County Common Pleas Court. A judge previously filed a not guilty plea on Brogan’s behalf.

Court records show that a competency evaluation has been ordered for Brogan in March.

Brogan has been accused of stabbing Scott Hannah, 28, several times inside a home on Dundee Circle in late November. Hannah’s body was discovered inside the home on Nov. 27, News

Center 7 previous reported.

The two men had known each other, according to investigators. News Center 7 previously spoke to friends of Hannah who said the two had been in periods of dating and friendship over the years.

Brogan was located and arrested in Logan County, Kentucky days after Hannah’s body was discovered.

He was later extradited to Montgomery County and booked in the Montgomery County Jail.

Brogan is facing three counts of murder and two counts of felonious assault, according to court records.

He’s being held in the Montgomery County Jail on a $1 million bond. whio.com

17-Year-Old arrested for armed robbery in Riverside County after threatening victim selling an Apple iPhone with a gun DHSPD | CONTRIBUTED

T

he Riverside County Sheriff reports the following. On Friday, January 6, 2023, at 12:06 P.M., Palm Desert Deputies responded to a victim who had just been robbed at gunpoint. The victim told deputies he met with the suspect to sell him an Apple iPhone. Instead of providing money, the suspect removed a handgun from his waistband and told the victim to give him the phone. The suspect then fled in a black four door Chrysler. Deputies used surveillance cameras to

identify the suspect’s car and broadcasted the description to neighboring police departments. At approximately 3:15 P.M., officers from Desert Hot Springs Police Department (DHSPD) located the suspect’s vehicle in the driveway of a residence, near the 66800 block of Flora Ave. in Desert Hot Springs. Officers from DHSPD conducted surveillance of the suspect’s house and vehicle, while deputies from Palm Desert responded. Before the deputies from Palm Desert arrived, the suspect exited the house and was detained by DHSPD. Palm Desert Patrol dep-

uties along with deputies assigned to the Palm Desert Special Enforcement Team and Palm Desert Business District Team arrived and continued the investigation.

The victim positively identified a 17-year-old Hispanic male, who lived at the location as the suspect. Deputies from the Palm Desert Special Enforcement Team wrote a search warrant for the suspect’s car and residence.

During the search of the residence, deputies located a loaded handgun. Deputies also located the victim’s cell phone and several magazines, un-serialized gun parts

used to manufacture/assemble firearms, and various caliber bullets.

The 17-year-old was booked into juvenile hall for robbery, assault with a deadly weapon, criminal threats, and weapons violations. Gustavo Corona, a 35-year-old who also lived at the residence, was also arrested for a misdemeanor warrant, and booked into the John Benoit Detention Center.

Anyone with additional information on this case is encouraged to call Deputy Pulido at the Palm Desert Sheriff’s Station by calling 760-836-1600.

Temecula's rainfall totals during the bomb cyclone: more rain coming ASHLEY LUDWIG | CONTRIBUTED

A

strong Pacific storm that doused Temecula with rain and much of Southern California with damaging winds, high surf and flooding is moving out of the area Friday.

Some roadways across the Southland became overrun with water and debris, forcing some freeway lane closures. Still, the system dropped far less rain Thursday than initially expected as it quickly moved through the area.

The main front of the "bomb cyclone" moved into the area overnight Wednesday, but forecasters said the storm traveled much faster than anticipated, which "greatly reduced the amount of rainfall through the area," according to the National Weather Service.

In Temecula, a total of 2.37 inches of rain has fallen this week, and the city sits at 7.09 inches for

Monday by the Los Angeles Times.

The Virginia State Police had previously — and repeatedly — said there were no red flags during Edwards' background investigation. However, Edwards had disclosed his 2016 stay at the psychiatric facility — after he threatened to kill his father and himself when he was 21 — during a pre-polygraph interview.

At the time, a judge barred Edwards from purchasing, possessing or transporting firearms and the Times did not find any record that he had petitioned a court to restore his gun rights.

T

he Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians have been working with GRID Alternatives on two energy resilience projects and last month, project teams met with staff and Tribal Council members to demonstrate operations, provide updates and answer any questions.

Project teams on site at the Soboba Fire Station included, GRID Alternatives’ Daniel Dumovich, Director of Strategic Initiatives and Nicole Bloom, Project Manager of Strategic Initiative along with the Inland Empire chapter’s Executive Director Jaime Alonso; Invinity Energy Systems’ Jan Petrenko, Regional Manager North America; California Energy Commission’s Sean Anayah, Energy Commission Specialist, Energy Infrastructure Integrity and Sustainability-Agreement Manager for Fire Station Microgrid and Zoe Higgerson, Utilities Engineer, Energy Systems Research Branch-Agreement Manager for MORBUGs; ONYX Power Operations Manager Aaron Dyer and Casey Reams, Engineering; and from the University of California, Riverside, Alfredo A. Martinez-Morales, Managing Director, Research Faculty, Southern California-Research Initiatives for Solar Energy and Miroslav Penchev, Project Scientist.

Soboba Fire Chief Glenn

Patterson said the solar panels and Invinity Energy Systems’ non-lithium battery backup have been installed at the station. He added that this solar and battery backup microgrid will not only offset energy costs but will provide power to the fire station and the Emergency Operations Center during an emergency or natural disaster ensuring emergency management personnel are able to continue to operate and serve the Soboba Indian Reservation.

GRID Alternatives was awarded a California Energy Commission grant for a microgrid community solar project and battery backup system on the reservation.

The solar panels were installed on a carport used for employee and visitor parking. The resilient battery backup system can last 6-10 hours in case of power shut offs at the fire station, which will be an emergency source of power for the community.

With CEC EPIC Support, GRID Alternatives, ONYX Power and UC Riverside are partnering with Tribal communities to demonstrate and deploy grid-independent, modular generation systems to enable California’s Tribal communities to provide power when the grid is down, as well as mobile offgrid resources for facilities throughout the year. The generators provide immediate, flexible and scalable relief to families who are

impacted the most by wildfires and grid outages, without the pollution and hazards associated with small portable gas generators.

Community Development & Tribal Program Manager Lisa Castilone said, “We are excited to use innovative technologies to advance climate resiliency in Tribal communities in California. This project will provide essential power to the Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians Fire Station for the reservation, and the surrounding communities.

This project will not only allow emergency services to continue during outages but will also reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate climate disasters that cause the outages in the first place.”

The Mobile Renewable Backup Generation, known as MORBUG, is for deployable community energy.

Created by Casey Reams and Aaron R. Dyer of ONYX Power, the portable RHINO technology generators can provide quiet and clean power anywhere.

The system has already been used at recent events on the reservation and has shown promise as a viable alternative to commonly used gas-powered generators. Dyer said he was told

by Public Works that one was recently used on a construction site, with great success.

Many employees from Soboba’s Public Works Department were given a hands-on demonstration

and explanation of how MORBUG and its solar blankets work and what to expect from their performance. That department, along with Soboba’s Emergency Services division, will oversee the storage and deployment of them. Ten units have already been delivered and are intended to be used much more for fun than for emergencies, although they can be used at residences if needed and requested. Being one of the first projects to utilize them, it is hoped that Soboba can offer a template for other Tribes to follow.

California’s Tribal communities are highly impacted by planned and unplanned power shut offs and grid outages due to their rural locations. Entire communities are often left without power, and many critical facilities are left inoperable. Not only can this greatly limit disaster response, but the dependence on gas generators exacerbates climate change and poses direct health and fire risks to the communities that depend on them.

ONYX Power’s Rhino technology is quiet, emissions-free, can be deployed in real-time, can expand in energy capacity, requires no lead time nor permitting, can power a home through a transfer switch like a generator, and the batteries and inverter can be replaced or upgraded in the future. The battery units can be paired with rapidly deployable solar units.

GRID Alternatives Inland Empire Executive Director Jaime Alonso said, “We can provide adaptive technologies that don’t depend on large investments in terms of infrastructure.

One of the biggest things we see in extremely rural areas is initial reluctance so education is a key component to our work in terms of showing what the value is and that really just takes relationship building and continuous engagement.”

He cited the long-term relationship GRID has with Soboba and is grateful the Tribe is progressive and open to new ideas. “Working with Tribal nations is something we see as essential to our mission. It lines up to our core mission to advance economic environmental justice through renewable energy.”

Alfredo A. Martinez-Morales, from UCR’s Bourns College of Engineering, is part of a four-member team. “The role of the university is to validate the performance of the technology,” he said. “These projects are intended to derisk the technology, meaning to document, in the form of a case study, how well it performs and the benefits that are achieved through the project. So our job is to basically make sure the correct data has been collected and then analyze the data and draw certain conclusions based on the data as well as potentially make recommendations.”

Martinez-Morales said

there is a combination of things that will be helpful to the end user, which is Soboba in this case, in showing how they can manage their system more efficiently but also it’s a product that is delivered to the CEC so that it becomes available to the public so all the facilities that may want to use this technology can see what went well, any opportunities for improvements, etc.

“We are involved in all the meetings with different groups within the project and provide feedback as the project develops,” he said.

“At this point, a lot has been focused on the construction phase.”

He said the project is going well and a major milestone is on the horizon.

“Once the system is fully constructed and commissioned, that’s a huge deal and I think we are getting very close to that now.”

GRID Alternatives is a national leader in making clean, affordable solar power and solar jobs accessible to low-income communities and communities of color, and its energy access work is powering off-grid communities across the globe. GRID’s vision: a successful transition to clean, renewable energy that includes everyone. GRID’s Tribal Program helps tribal communities become self-sustaining by providing resources to assist with their clean energy goals.

tudying the Bible, it’s always amazed me how every topic under the sun is addressed in this book - even politics! Of course, history has always had its bad actors, nothing new here, but aren’t we supposed to be learning something along the way?!

Remember Imelda Marcos - the dictators wife in the Philippines? She and her husband stole billions of dollars from the poor - living a lavish lifestyle during a time of economic crisis & civil unrest. Upon being deposed, she was found to have amassed over 3,000 pairs of shoes!

In 2017, a Florida mayor got caught using handicapped parking permits of dead people for his own use. That same year, the governor of New Jersey ordered all state beaches closed due to a gov’t shutdown, then took his family to a deserted state beach.

And who among us can forget the examples of reckless leadership during the recent pandemic: mandates, closures, a general “Do as I say, not as I do” attitude - arresting people at beaches, those working out in gyms, and others attending church. An Austin, Texas mayor even recorded a video telling people to stay home - trouble is, he filmed it while at his timeshare in Cabo, having flown to Mexico on a private jet.

throne. Rehoboam became king and not only inherited the throne, he inherited a legacy. But all he did was make a giant mess of things. (Sound familiar?)

When Rehoboam became king, the people wanted him to treat them less harshly than his father.

King Solomon was loved & respected but his demands were hard. The people told Rehoboam that if he made things easier for them, they would honor and serve him as king. Rehoboam checked in with his daddy’s advisors for advice - they urged him to lighten up on the load.

But then he sought advice from his own personal group of advisors who were amateur. They told him to make things harder on the people. What did Rehoboam do? He listened to the “wisdom” of his smart-aleck friends and told the people things would be miserable under his rule. Here are his now-famous words: “If you think life under my father was hard, you haven’t seen the half of it. My father thrashed you with whips; I’ll beat you bloody with chains!”

Rehoboam failed to understand the meaning of true greatness. Everything in his life revolved around him. He could have been a hero but instead was a big ol’ zero! He literally destroyed all that his father & grandfather had worked for within a few years. The final result of his bad, failed leadership was literally a divided kingdom.

There’s a telling story told that during an operation, a surgeon asked a young intern, “Who’s the most important person in this operating room? The intern fumbled for an answer. He knew his mentor wasn’t fishing for personal compliments so he responded with, “I suppose that it would be these great nurses.” The surgeon shook his head and said, “No, the most important person in this room is not the doctor, the nurses, or the team, but the patient.” Aka: the citizen.

Rehoboam was almost a hero! All he had to do was stay the course and success was all but assured - both for himself & the citizens!

RAINFALL from A2

ceive more than a half-inch throughout the storm.

"Though the rain and winds are the main stories for Thursday, high-elevation mountain snow will occur as well," according to the NWS. "With a low-pressure system tapping into warm atmospheric river moisture, snow levels are expected to be quite high ... above 7,000 feet during the heaviest precipitation.

After the cold front passes Thursday afternoon, snow levels will drop to around 6,000 feet."

Above 7,000 feet, snowfall accumulations could exceed 12 inches, while an inch or less may accumulate at the lower mountain levels, forecasters said.

Statewide, as of Tuesday, the snowpack is at 174 percent of the average for this date, according to the California Department of Water Resources.

This season's conditions have proven to be strikingly similar to last year when California saw some early rainstorms and strong December snow totals only to have the driest January through March on record, according to DWR Direc-

tor Karla Nemeth.

"The significant Sierra snowpack is good news, but unfortunately, these same storms are bringing flooding to parts of California," Nemeth said. "This is a prime example of the threat of extreme flooding during a prolonged drought as California experiences more swings between wet and dry periods brought on by our changing climate."

The mercury will trend slightly higher going into the weekend. For the Temecula Valley, the temperature band will bessentiallyly the same, while in

the Coachella Valley, the mercury will top out in the mid to upper 60s Friday, with lows in the thmid40s0s.

According to meteorologists, the storm train, which began last month with a dip in the jet stream, shows no signs of letting up, with additional inclement weather anticipated Sunday night through Tuesday.

ECONOMY

California faces budget deficit of $22.5B, governor says ADAM BEAM | CONTRIBUTED

C

alifornia faces a projected budget deficit of $22.5 billion for the coming fiscal year, Gov. Gavin Newsom announced Tuesday, just days into his second term. It’s a sharp turnaround from last year’s $98 billion surplus.

The deficit, while unsurprising, could signal the end of a decade’s worth of economic growth in the nation’s most populous state.

Newsom, a Democrat, is proposing to close the hole by delaying spending in some areas and changing how others are funded. His budget appears to avoid significant cuts to most major programs, although it does lower proposed spending on climate change initiatives by about $6 billion.

The state hopes to restore that spending in 2024 or offset it with federal money.

Among his climate maneuvers: He’ll shift $4.3 billon in spending on zero-emission vehicles from the state’s taxpayer-funded general fund to a special fund paid into by polluters.

He’s also delaying by a year

$3.1 billion in climate and transportation funding.

The state still has about $35.6 billion in reserves.

Newsom stressed that California would continue robust spending in public and higher education, climate change, health care, and responding to drought and wildfire.

“We’re keeping our promises,” he said.

Newsom’s presentation offers the first glimpse of his spending and policy priorities as he launches his second term, but it’s not the final say on how the state will dole out money. He’ll reassess the state’s finances in May after tax revenue has come in, and he’ll sign a final budget in June.

The California Republican Party quickly blasted the proposal, saying Newsom has for years failed to adequately tackle issues like homelessness and wildfires despite record spending.

“Now with a massive budget shortfall projected, it’s time for Gavin Newsom to finally get serious about smarter spending to resolve the many issues that are plaguing our state and driving long-time residents

away,” party Chairwoman Jessica Millan Patterson said in a statement.

Newsom’s proposed cuts to climate spending, including in programs designed to boost zero-emission vehicles, drew criticism from some of his traditional environmental allies. The budget reduces hundreds of millions in spending on programs to expand zero-emission vehicle infrastructure in low-income neighborhoods and to transition delivery trucks, airplanes, rail lines and oth-

er transportation sources away from greenhouse gases.

“Investing in climate solutions is the only way to ensure a better California for all who live here,” said David Weiskopf, senior policy adviser for the climate group NextGen California.

His proposed budget isn’t all cuts — Newsom wants to give an additional $1 billion to local governments to combat home-

Late Sunday evening while in Mexico City, Mexico for the 10th North American Leaders’ Summit, President Joseph R. Biden, Jr., declared that an emergency exists in the State of California and ordered Federal assistance to supplement State, tribal, and local response efforts due to the emergency conditions resulting from successive and severe winter storms, flooding, and mudslides beginning on January 8, 2023, and continuing.

The President’s action authorizes the Department of Homeland Security, Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), to coordinate all disaster relief efforts which have the purpose of alleviating the hardship and suffering caused by the emergency on the local population, and to provide appropriate assistance for required emergency measures, authorized under Title V of the Stafford Act, to save lives and to protect property and public health

and safety, and to lessen or avert the threat of a catastrophe in the counties of El Dorado, Los Angeles, Mariposa, Mendocino, Merced, Monterey, Napa, Placer, Riverside, Sacramento, San Bernardino, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, Sonoma, Stanislaus, and Ventura.

Specifically, FEMA is authorized to identify, mobilize, and provide at its discretion, equipment and resources necessary to alleviate the impacts of the emergency.

Emergency protective measures (Category B), limited to direct Federal assistance, under the Public Assistance program will be provided at 75 percent Federal funding.

Deanne Criswell, Administrator, Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), Department of Homeland Security, named Andrew F. Grant as the Federal Coordinating Officer for Federal recovery operations in the affected areas.

RivCo Supe Kevin Jeffries to be seated as Board Chair Tuesday

EMWD posts unclaimed money list

Each supervisor is given an opportunity to rotate into the Board Chair position, which is a one-year term.

Current and former customers of Eastern Municipal Water District (EMWD) may be entitled to unclaimed money. Each year, EMWD posts a list of unclaimed monies, which are typically refunds associated with the closing of water accounts, water efficiency rebates or other fees.

EMWD attempts to locate the current address and contact these customers and developers, but those efforts are sometimes unsuccessful due to the lack of a forwarding address, companies closing, or other reasons. In addition, EMWD performs a search of its customer database to see if the customer has a current active account where the unclaimed money can be applied.

he most senior member of the Riverside County Board of Supervisors is slated to be appointed Tuesday to the position of chairman of the board -- the last time he will serve in that capacity as he closes in on retirement.

Supervisor Kevin Jeffries, who represents the First District, is next in the rotation to take the helm, the second time in the 10 years that he’s been on the board that he’ll be placed in the top slot.

A majority of the five supervisors must affirm the appointment to chair. Jeffries can vote for himself.

The only time in the current century that a Board of Supervisors chairmanship was confirmed by a threadbare majority occurred in January 2022, when Supervisor Jeff Hewitt was appointed. He garnered support from Supervisors Jeffries and Karen Spiegel, then voted for himself after abstentions by Supervisors Manuel Perez and Chuck Washington.

Perez and Washington publicly supported fellow Democrat and Moreno Valley Mayor Yxstian Gonzalez in his bid to unseat Hewitt, a Libertarian, in the Nov. 8 general election.

Yxstian won by a margin of 54% to 46% and will be attending his first meeting as

OPINION

Thursday, January 12 - Wednesday, January 18, 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: When I was 13, my 10-year-old cousin let a boy we did not know well into my house. Nobody else was there with us. He told her he wanted to “make out” with me, and he came upstairs. I confronted him and told him to leave. Later on, I told my mother about the incident, thinking I would be commended on my bravery.

Shortly afterward, against my will, she insisted my aunt, a hairstylist, cut my long hair up to my chin. I sobbed during the entire ordeal. My hair had given me confidence about my looks, which I needed because I was large-chested and embarrassed at that age about it.

By cutting my hair against my will, my mother made me no longer trust her and think she didn’t love me or like me.

A nation of addicts RUSTY STRAIT | SENIOR REPORTER

T

he United States has an addiction problem, but we are far from number one in the world with drug problems. According to the most recent statistics, we are number eight. Iran is number one with approximately 14 million addicted to drugs. However the percentage of the American population on prescription pills is increasing day by day and has increased up to almost 50% in recent years.

Meth is the illegal drug of choice because it is the easiest to access. Fentanyl is a johnny-come-lately compared to heroin and cocaine. Fentanyl is not an illegal drug. It is widely prescribed as a pain killer for cancer and other types of illness. A prescription is required.

We manufacture opioids like candy because of demand. Most drug addictions have their beginnings in the family medicine cabinets. Doctors over-prescribe painkillers which makes them more available in the home.

You might expect the largest states to have the highest death rates. Not true. In numbers, they have the most deaths from overdoses but not by ranking per population. That goes to West Virginia with 81.4. The most recent number annually was 1,330. California’s ranking was 21, having a total of 8,908. West Virginia has become the poorest and least progressive state, while California is the wealthiest and most progressive. Why is this?

The least progressive and poorest states have less to look forward to and are the most likely to sink

In later years, I realized she may have done it so I would not attract boys and there would be less risk of my being harmed by a boy like the one who got into our house. If that was the case, she should have sat me down and explained that the boy could have hurt, raped or even killed me. I am giving her the benefit of the doubt.

The reality of war

Recently, my aunt and I had a falling-out, and I remembered she was the one who actually did the cutting.

I am feeling resentment toward her after all these years. I would like parents to know that cutting a teenager’s hair at such a vulnerable stage of their development should not be a punishment. It is disrespectful and oversteps a child’s boundaries. Am I correct in my thinking?

O

- STILL REMEMBERS IN VIRGINIA DEAR STILL REMEMBERS: Yes, you are. Your mother punished you for being an attractive young girl, which wasn’t your fault. What she did was a form of assault and blaming the victim, and it was outrageous. It’s a shame your aunt couldn’t have talked some sense into your mother.

P.S. You did nothing wrong. Your cousin let the boy into the house, and your cousin should have been lectured about it.

DEAR ABBY: I recently made the acquaintance of a woman who just moved into our neighborhood. We are both new members of a local civic club. I asked if she would like to attend an upcoming event for the group and have breakfast afterward. It was a bad move on my part, because she now seems to think I am her best friend.

She sends me text messages throughout the day -seven yesterday alone. She constantly asks me for rides to meetings and local events, often at the last minute.

I’m sure she’s lonely, but I am busy with a husband. I also volunteer for a nonprofit group and manage a short-term rental property. I don’t want to hurt her feelings, but I don’t have time for someone this needy. How do I tell her to back off?

- STRESSED IN RETIREMENT DEAR STRESSED: Convey that message directly -- but kindly -- by explaining that you are busy with a husband, volunteering for a nonprofit and managing real estate and don’t have time to maintain the kind of relationship she’s seeking. Tell her you will reach out to her when you have an opening in your schedule. Then suggest she may meet more like-minded people and make more friends if she begins volunteering in the community, too.

into despair.

But let’s be realistic folks. Drug sales, legal or illegal, are part of the economy. Pharma keeps belting opiates out in the assembly line rapidly. Why, then, are drugs imported and do they all come from south of the border? To answer the first part of the question, it is simple economics. There would be no imports if there was not a demand.

Supply and demand. As simple as that. We are an addicted nation.

While our politicians scream bloody murder about the importation of opiates from Mexico, there isn’t a port in the company that doesn’t have more access than the south simply because we do not have the means to stop drugs from coming in. So what are we doing to suppress the desire for drugs? Why do we talk but

not show what drugs do to us? One video of some young boy or girl dying in the hospital or being found dead or dying will better teach the dangers of overdosing than all the talk in the world. Seeing is more likely believing.

Drug addiction should be a required course from kindergarten through high school, just as history and science are taught.

So, the only way to stop the production of drugs and the ultimate overdose and death is to stop the demand. Duh! Just sayin’.

AMERICAN THINKER

KAREN MCKAY | AMERICAN THINKER

n the night of 9/12/2001, my phone was ringing as I walked in the door after two days on standby at my fire department. I was an Ashburn, VA firefighter/EMT. We had sent one fire truck and ambulance already to the Pentagon that terrible morning of 9/11; I was on the second engine crew waiting to respond. All that day and night and the next day we watched the TV coverage of the attack on the Towers in New York and on the Pentagon, and the crash in Pennsylvania.

The night after the plane flew into the Pentagon, it was declared a recovery and we were stood down.

On the phone was a woman who boarded a horse with me. She complained that she’d been trying to call me for two days, said she knew I had connections in Washington, and that I must stop President Bush from reacting violently to the events of the previous day. I was stunned. Later I learned that she and her husband were Quakers.

Libertarians and pacifists have something in common: They don’t want to engage in overseas wars. There the comparison pretty much stops.

Quakers don’t want any war anywhere anytime.

Noble sentiment. Nor do any good people of sound mind, including and especially warfighters. Libertarians are not antiwar, they’re for war if our country is invaded, but only if our country is invaded, and only on our own territory.

There’s a big problem with that philosophy, but I’ll get to that in a minute.

A few days after the 9/11 attack, I got summoned to a meeting in a military association headquarters in Washington.

Cato Institute wanted to meet with leadership of conservative/military organizations, so half a dozen of us met with the two Libertarian intellectuals.

The Cato men argued that the United States absolutely must not respond to the terrorist attacks on 9/11. Not one U.S. soldier, airman, sailor, or Marine on the ground, in the air

or on the sea of a foreign shore. We had been invaded, yes, but the people who did it were dead. The end.

The problem with Libertarian war policy is that by the time an invading force gets to the territorial U.S., countless people elsewhere have been killed or displaced, their countries devastated.

There’s nobody left to help us, and now it’s our turn to die or be displaced, our own country to be devastated by war. And where would our refugees go?

As President Reagan said, America is the last best hope for mankind.

Woodrow Wilson (WWI) and FDR (WWII) campaigned on the promise that they would not “send your sons to war.”

Lyndon B. Johnson (Vietnam) swore in his 1964 presidential campaign, “We are not about to send American boys nine or ten thousand miles away from home to do what Asian boys ought to be doing for themselves.”

President Joe Biden has made clear that the U.S., despite promises made in the 1994 Budapest Memorandum, American troops will not be sent to the war in Ukraine. (Except for Biden’s telling 82d Airborne troops in Poland that they would soon see the war in Ukraine for themselves.)

We do go to war on foreign shores, but after our allies-to-be were bled white with the enemy in control of Europe in the cases of World War I, and both Europe and Asia in the case of WWII. How much sooner would those wars have ended had America joined the fight at the outset? How much blood and treasure would have been saved?

Truman’s response to Korea was timely, but with insufficient and untrained, poorly armed and badly equipped occupation troops stationed in Japan. Vietnam should never have been our war, and was criminally mismanaged by politicians and bureaucrats in Washington. Afghanistan and Iraq I & II are the definition of “just war.” We (or our national interests in Gulf One) were attacked, and we responded, going after the enemy on his

home ground.

In our interests, cold rationalism says that it is better to fight a war somewhere else rather than in our own land, on our own streets. That sounds callous, but the war is already on elsewhere, and the enemy must be contained as quickly as possible where he is, and defeated decisively. It won’t help the hapless victims over there if we wait for the enemy to crush them before moving on to our own shores. It’s a case of feeding the crocodile in the hopes it will eat you last, to paraphrase Churchill.

Most wars could be prevented by fearlessly decisive action at the first move of an aggressor, or by preemption. Hitler admitted that the West could have stopped his war plans dead in their tracks over Sudetenland.

But we didn’t.

Deterrence is even better. Igitur qui desiderat pacem, praeparet bellum.

“If you desire peace, prepare for war.” (Vegetius, Roman general) In the American system of government, elected politicians must make the decision to go to war. They must set the broad parameters, right or wrong, as Truman did in Korea. But then they must allow the military to fight to win an absolute victory. If they do not, more war is inevitable. In WWII we had total victory, and our former enemies are our allies now. In WWI we had an armistice -- a ceasefire. It led to WWII twenty years later. We did not achieve a victory in Korea -- we signed a ceasefire that can explode into war again at any time. LBJ and Robert Strange McNamara, his Secretary of Defense, had no intention to winning the Vietnam War, only not to lose it under their watch. American involve-

ment ended in a cut and run after the pernicious Paris Peace Accords ignominiously ended American involvement in the war and abandoned those Vietnamese, Hmong, Montagnard, Cambodian, and Lao allies who had trusted us to their terrible fates. And then there’s Afghanistan, Biden’s treacherous abandonment of people and assets.

If Putin crushes Ukraine, he will not stop there -- history tells us that the crocodile will only have had another appetizer. His appetite has already been whetted with Georgia, Crimea, and Chechnya. The U.S., UK, and, ironically, Russia guaranteed Ukraine’s security and sovereignty.

Russia’s definition of the guarantee, of course, is not the same as that of American, British, and Ukrainian understanding.

Will we stalwartly stand by those guarantees? Will our resolve be unwavering?

Apologists argue that Russia needs and has a right to a “buffer.” That buffer, like the universe, is ever-expanding. Maybe it will stop when it reaches the seas. Even now, Russia is expanding its Arctic strategic zone and its military infrastructure.

Our politicians -- POTUS and Congress -must decide whether to wait for a new world war or to do whatever is necessary to stop Putin right there and now, and destroy his ability to make aggressive war. Our leadership, unfortunately, will not want to have to make that hard decision. They’d rather obsess over climate change and pronouns, and then be surprised when war demands our participation.

War is looking for us, and if it finds us, it likely will find us with our pants down again.

Veterans Corner RUSTY STRAIT | SENIOR REPORTER

L

ocal Post 53 of the American Legion in Hemet has a galaxy of regular and special events coming up this year. Much has been started under the aegis of Commandant Joe Males. When Joe became the Commandant, the Legion’s hall at 124 North Ramona Street was lying like a lonesome advertisement on an even more lonesome road.

Post 53 had fallen into almost a sense of despair due to a lack of leadership. Joe Males turned that around. Solar panels were installed, reducing the Post’s electric bills, new events popped up and a cocktail lounge opened (a source of income for the Post, and a great place to share expe-

riences and relax). He has put together a great staff that works harmoniously as a team.

They have resumed their Friday night dinners, served between 5 and 7 p.m. Also, they now have karaoke on Friday nights, overseen by the affable Julian.

Upcoming, on January 26th, the National Commander of the Legion will attend breakfast at the Post between 8 and 10 a.m. All are invited.

Post 53 will unite with Post 4379(Winchester), Empire Mobility, and Veterans Paying It Forward in a weekly 9-ball pool tournament. For details, check out the Legion.

In March, Veterans Outreach will be sponsoring a Welcome Home Ceremony for our Veterans, beginning at 12:30

noon. Each Veteran and one guest will be treated to a free meal. On March 25th, the American Legion Riders are hosting a Bike Rally. Prizes will be awarded in various categories. There will be vendors on hand, entertainment, and food. And don’t forget their weekly Bingo on Tuesday evenings. You will be kept informed of updates and events as they develop. So all you Vets in the Valley, keep your eyes on your Veterans Corner because plenty is happening. One more thing, membership has been picking up since Joe Males became the Commandant. One wonders how he does all this while serving as Mayor of Hemet - but he does. I think he manufactures his own energy. Just sayin’. rustystrait@gmail.com

committing to pay for all 4-year-olds to go to kindergarten and agreeing to cover the health expenses of all low-income immigrants who are living in the country without legal permission.

The money has come mostly from a soaring stock market that launched a parade of California-based tech companies. Those companies — including the likes of Uber, Airbnb, Lyft and Pinterest — made lots of people very rich, creating a new class of millionaires and billionaires in a state with a progressive tax code where nearly half of all income taxes come from the top 1% of earners.

Sine then, lots of economic factors — led by runaway inflation, supply chain disruptions and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine — have had a chilling effect on the economy. The S&P 500, a key indicator of the health of U.S. stock markets, has fallen more than 18% since its peak at the end of 2021.

With rich people not making as much money, they are paying less in California state taxes. So far this year, California’s tax revenues have been $4.6 billion below expectations — not including some one-time corporate tax payments that state officials say they

can’t count on.

Money from capital gains taxes is projected to be about 5.5% of the state’s revenue, down from 9.75% last year, Newsom said.

Still, California appears to be well-positioned to weather an economic downturn. Of the $131 billion in general fund surpluses the state has had in the past four years, most of it — about $80 billion — has paid for things that do not require ongoing funding, like construction projects. Just $10 billion of surplus spending has paid for ongoing commitments, according to the Legislative Analyst’s Office.

Constitutional limits prevent lawmakers from emptying reserves to cover a deficit. And unlike the federal government, California’s budget must be balanced. Newsom and lawmakers will have to tighten state spending to cover all of the shortfall — something that Senate Budget Committee chair Nancy Skinner said is doable.

“We funded things at such record levels, and a lot of the programs that we funded haven’t even gotten going yet, so we still have room to make some adjustments if needed,” she said.

“I’m very optimistic because we’re in good shape.”

the board. However, he accepted the position and was unanimously appointed during the latter half of his second term.

Each supervisor is given an opportunity to rotate into the chair, which is a one-year term. The line of succession is based only on whichever district supervisor is slated for a turn. Washington is expected to be appointed vice chair Tuesday.

The chair oversees establishing board schedules, guiding hearings, attending functions on behalf of the entire board, signing proclamations and other ceremonial duties that don’t require a quorum.

The 61-year-old Jeffries announced in October 2021 that he intended

to retire at the end of his present term, which expires in December 2024.

The Lakeland Village resident said he wanted to spend more time with family, and most of his children and grandchildren had left California.

Jeffries, a property investor and former volunteer firefighter, first ran for the board in 2012 after being termed out of the state Assembly, where he served as a Republican. He was elected to his third supervisorial term in 2020.

He is the only supervisor who has consistently declined salary increases, and he has been a steadfast critic of excess spending and an advocate for pension reform to preserve the county’s fiscal health and prevent successive structural budget deficits.

Jeffries has additionally decried the overgrowth of warehouses countywide

and has voted in opposition to several projects due to their breadth and encroachments on residential spaces.

He led the charge against illegal cannabis grows, particularly throughout his district, but later spearheaded efforts to implement a regulatory scheme to provide a permitting process for enabling marijuana vendors to do business in the county after recreational use of the product was approved by voters in 2018.

Last year, he called for a suspension of permitting proposals brought before the board for review because, he said, too many licenses had been granted, but the applicants had been inert, failing to move ahead with establishing their outlets, or failing to fulfill the terms of their conditional use permits. $89,960 to Conduct a Citywide Engineering and Traffic Survey and Authorizing the City Manager to Execute all Documents Related to the Agreement and Authorize Additional Expenditures up to 10% of the Agreement Amount if Necessary.

All issues were approved 5-0 except for #5, which was continued to the next Council Meeting.

Then they adopted a resolution to amend the fiscal year 2022-2023 Budget and approve appropriations and Amending the Budgeted Positions list.

Finally, they completed their evening in record time by nominating certain members of the Council to be Chair and Vice Chairs of certain committees for the coming year.

If you can believe it, the whole shabang lasts less than two hours. Now if they could only have such harmony in the House of Representatives, but that’s not likely to happen anytime soon. Just sayin’. rustystrait@gmail.com

BUDGET from B1

lessness, although he wants more accountability from local leaders. In the fall, he threatened to withhold funding for such programs.

He’s also proposed spending more on cash assistance programs for low-income and disabled Californians.

Other ways he’s closing the spending hole including pulling back on $3 billion designed to help the state deal with inflation.

Newsom has been warning of a potential budget shortfall for more than a year, and the Legislative Analyst’s Office said in November the shortfall could be around $25 billion.

In September, Newsom publicly scolded lawmakers for sending him dozens of bills that, when added together, would have allowed billions in new spending.

Newsom vetoed those bills, saying he has “made it crystal clear that we are seeing economic headwinds.”

Dealing with a deficit will be a change of pace for the state, where spending has more than doubled in the 10 years since the last recession. Officials have launched a dizzying amount of new programs and services — including

California is required to spend a certain minimum on education determined by a 1980s era constitutional amendment known as Proposition 98. That means proposed overall spending for the upcoming fiscal year is similar to last year’s.

The proposal includes spending $604 million to expand access to transitional kindergarten in addition to funding an incremental transition for state preschool providers to serve at least 10% of students with disabilities by July 1, 2024.

Newsom rejected a bill last fall that would have made

kindergarten mandatory before students enter the first grade at a public school, citing the costs associated with the proposal.

It would delay the allocation of $550 million for a program supporting school facilities for providing transitional kindergarten, fullday kindergarten or preschool classrooms until 2024

immigration status on Jan. 1, 2024, and to expand behavioral health care services for children and teens.

The budget also maintains over $1 billion a year to provide higher cash payments through the CalWORKS program to individuals with disabilities, older adults and low-income children and families.

Newsom has proposed additional funding for counties and courts to implement a controversial mental health court program he pushed to get homeless people with schizophrenic or bipolar disorders into treatment, even if

it’s against their will.

The proposed budget includes $93 million from an opioid settlement fund over four years, much of it to increase the distribution of naloxone to first responders to reverse fentanyl and opioid overdoses.

After greatly expanding the number of subsidized child care slots last year, Newsom said Tuesday he wants to delay 20,000 of those lots by one year to help balance the budget. The Newsom administration says many of the new slots from last year have not yet been filled.

HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES Newsom’s proposal maintains plans to provide health care to low-income adults ages 26 to 49 regardless of

Laker Legends help Pechanga offer “Holiday of Hope” for Inland Empire’s most deserving families PECHANGA RESORT CASINO | CONTRIBUTED

T

he holidays came a few weeks early for 400 of the most underserved children and their families from the Inland Empire.

Thursday, Dec. 8, hundreds of children from Lake Elsinore, Murrieta, Temecula, Menifee and the surrounding communities were welcomed by special invitation to enjoy a 40,000-square foot winter wonderland-themed holiday extravaganza inside the Pechanga Summit Events Center.

During Pechanga’s sixth “Holiday of Hope” event, the guests of honor enjoyed nine different holiday activities including photos with Santa, watching holiday movies

by a fire, enjoying a traditional holiday meal, riding a train, listening to Christmas singers from local high school choirs, playing holiday bingo and more.

They even got to say hello to Los Angeles Lakers Legends AC Green and Robert Horry who were volunteering for the event. Each child and his or her family were identified by the Temecula, Lake Elsinore and Murrieta School Districts as inneed individuals. According to a May 2022 report, there are 3,316 homeless children and adults in Riverside County, up from 2020’s count of 2,884.

“The Holiday of Hope event is something we look forward to hosting each year. So many smiling faces show us the event brightens a lot

of people’s lives here in our region,” Andrew Masiel Sr., President of the Pechanga Development Corporation, said. “We understand how important holiday memories are for children as they grow up and how special they can be. The Temecula Valley is our home so to be able to give back and to partner with our local school districts to show these children and families that people are out there who care a lot about their well-being, this is what the holidays are all about.”

Lakers Legend AC Green said, “Every year I come, it’s just fantastic.

Just seeing what they’re doing and how Pechanga has done just great in the community. Understanding people, their needs, knowing it’s the season,

yes, but all year round.

They are always reaching out seeing how they can help and do more. So I always love coming here, and working with them throughout the year.”

Each of the 400 children attending the Holiday of Hope event got to choose his or her very own, age-appropriate gift.

Their families were also each given a $100 gift card. Pechanga also provided shuttle service to some of the families who live in Murrieta and Lake Elsinore so they could be sure to get to the Holiday of Hope event.

The kids and families also enjoyed musical performances by the Chaparral and Great Oak high school choirs. The groups generously agreed to donate their time to this event.

We Cancel Timeshares for You Many people believe their timeshares cannot be canceled, but they often can be.

Our founder and CEO, Chuck McDowell, has successfully fought in federal court for the right to help timeshare owners — like you — out of their “binding” agreements. Whether you were misled or pressured, you may have an easy exit.

How Does the Cancellation Process Work?

• Start with a FREE consultation to discuss your needs.

• If we see that the circumstances of your agreement qualify you to exit the timeshare, you’ll be assigned a specialist to walk you through gathering documentation.

• Our Resolution Department then works quickly to have your timeshare and related fees permanently terminated.

We are able to help most timeshare owners that contact us. You could be one phone call away from complete peace of mind.

uring a day of flood advisories, wind advisories and severe winter storm warnings across Southern California, there's no time like the present to remind residents to sign up for their alert systems. Residents can sign up Alert Riverside County and follow Murrieta's Alert Center online.

"The system works with landlines, cell phones and email addresses," according to the alert system website.

The county alert system allows residents to become readily aware of what is happening in their area at any given time. Some cities in Riverside County have a city alerting system as well, including: • Riverside • Corona • Hemet • Palm Springs • Temecula Remember to "turn around and don't drown during storms," says RivCo Ready. Slow down on wet roads, stay away from flood channels and waterways, and sign up for

local alerts, according to Shane Reichart, Public Information Officer for the County of Riverside Emergency Management Department.

"When it comes to driving, if you encounter a flooded roadway, remember 'turn around, don't drown,'" he said.

"We really want people to follow official sources of information," he said.

Also, flooding, mud, and debris flows can happen anytime. If you have an emergency, call 9-1-1.

Most importantly, according to the website, the Alert RivCo system allows emergency managers and public safety first responders to rapidly alert and warn the public in the event of emergencies.

"Alert RivCo is used to alert Riverside County community members of urgent actions to take during disasters, such as earthquakes, wildfires, and floods," a spokesperson for Alert RivCo wrote.

"The Inland Empire has experienced a very steady economic recovery, outpacing coastal California along many key measures," Center for Economic Forecasting Research Manager Taner Osman said.

ing, building permits and commercial real estate."

Home sales in Riverside County were down 42% year-over-year in October, while in San Bernardino County, they were down 48%. Prices were also lower, but generally less than 5% over the previous year.

The high cost of living in Southern California, exacerbated by accelerating inflation, is a deterrent to drawing workers to the region, unlike other parts of the country, the center said in its first-quarter report.

However, robust commercial real estate development points to ongoing

confidence in job growth for the region.

According to the center, building permits for new office space ballooned almost 400% between the start of the year and the end of the third quarter.

"Moreover, many existing firms have opted to improve or expand their space, as illustrated by a 46% annual jump in non-residential alterations and additions," according to the report.

Forecasters said earlier this year that the region had largely recovered the jobs lost during the coronavirus public health lockdowns of 2020 and part of 2021.

Californians warned to head to high ground as waters rise BRIAN K. SULLIVAN | CONTRIBUTED

A

fter years of drought, California is in a long flood fight as waves of storms roll in off the Pacific, killing at least 14 people, closing highways and schools and sending residents fleeing for their lives.

The parade of storms since the end of December is one of the biggest tests yet for disaster-weary California, which has endured a crucible of wildfires and extreme heat in recent years as global warming makes weather ever-more extreme.

On Monday, residents in the tony coastal enclave of Montecito, home to Oprah and Prince Harry, were told by state officials in a tweet to “LEAVE NOW” while shelter-inplace orders were issued in other parts of Santa Barbara County. Several other towns throughout

the state advised residents to get out before more rivers flood.

“California is experiencing coincidentally a drought emergency and a flood emergency,” said Department of Water Resources Director Karla Nemeth during a media briefing Monday.

Highway 1, pathway to the state’s renowned coastal area of Big Sur, was closed following a mudslide, according to the California Department of Transportation website. In addition, the westbound lanes of Interstate 80 near Sacramento, the state capital, have been shut by floods and many other roads throughout the state have been closed.

Emergency shelters were opened in Santa Cruz County, about 75 miles (121 kilometers) south of San Francisco, where the San Lorenzo River rose 17.7 feet (5.4 meters) since Sunday and

towns throughout the area flooded. Levels on the river probably have peaked but there will be another round of intense rain later, said Daniel Swain, a climatologist at the University of California, Los Angeles. People in nearby communities were told to evacuate.

Sacramento County on Sunday told about 3,300 people in the Central Valley town of Wilton ahead of Monday’s deluge to evacuate due to the risk of flooding if levies overflow, said county spokesperson Matt Robinson.

Many downed are being removed to clear roads, he added.

Five rivers are being monitored for flooding including the Cosumnes River in Sacramento County and the Russian River in Napa and Mendocino counties in Northern California, according to Jeremy Arrich, flood management manager of

driving a truck when it became stranded in floodwaters just before 8 a.m. near Paso Robles, a small city inland from California’s central coast, according to Tom Swanson, assistant chief of the Cal Fire/San Luis Obispo County Fire Department.

Bystanders were able to pull the mother out of the truck, but the boy was swept out of the vehicle and downstream, likely into a river, Swanson said. There was no evacuation order in the area at the time.

About 130 miles (209 kilometers) to the south, the entire community of Montecito and surrounding canyons scarred by recent wildfires were under an evacuation order that came on the fifth anniversary of a mudslide that killed

23 people and destroyed more than 100 homes in the coastal enclave.

In Los Angeles, a sinkhole swallowed two cars in the Chatsworth area on Monday night. Two people escaped by themselves and firefighters using ropes and an aerial ladder rescued two others who had minor injuries, authorities said.

The National Weather Service reported rainfall rates of one inch (2.5 centimeters) per hour, with heavy downpours expected throughout the night in the upscale area where roads wind along wooded hillsides studded with large houses. Montecito is squeezed between mountains and the Pacific and is home to celebrities includ-

Service. “Any steep slopes could be dangerous,” the weather service said.

The storm is another in a series of atmospheric river events, long streams of moisture that can stretch for thousands of miles across the Pacific and then deliver as much water as flows through the mouth of the Mississippi River when they’re wrung out on California’s mountains. The storms already have caused more than $1

billion in losses and damages, according to an estimate by AccuWeather Inc. While the precipitation might slack in northern areas overnight, another round of rain will roll in off the Pacific Tuesday, said Richard Bann, a forecaster with the US Weather Prediction Center. It won’t be as severe as Monday’s deluge but with the ground so heavily saturated it won’t take much to cause problems.

s another powerful storm walloped California, a 5-yearold boy was swept away by floodwaters Monday on the state’s central coast and an entire seaside community that is home to Prince Harry, Oprah Winfrey and other celebrities was ordered to evacuate on the fifth anniversary of deadly mudslides there.

Tens of thousands of people remained without power, and some schools closed for the day. Streets and highways transformed into gushing rivers, trees toppled, mud slid and motorists growled as they hit roadblocks caused by fallen debris. The death toll from the relentless string of storms climbed from 12 to 14 on Monday, after two people were killed by falling trees, state officials said.

A roughly seven-hour search for the missing boy turned up only his shoe before officials called it off as water levels were too dangerous for divers, officials said. The boy has not been declared dead, said spokesperson Tony Cipolla of the San Luis Obispo County Sheriff ’s Office.

The boy’s mother was

the Department of Water Resources, said during the press briefing.

Heavy rain started falling Sunday night in many regions, and more than 100,000 people are without power mostly in northern and central California, according to PowerOutage.us. That’s down from more than 500,000 on Sunday after an earlier storm over the weekend.

The new storm may dump 2 to 5 inches (5 to 13 centimeters) of rain in some areas and 1 to 4 feet of snow in the Sierra Nevada, a mountain range in Eastern California, said Ashton Robinson Cook, a forecaster with the US Weather Prediction Center. Wind gusts may reach upwards of 50 miles per hour in many places.

Avalanche warnings have been posted in a number of areas through the Sierra Nevada through Wednesday, according to the National Weather

s a growing number of older adults are experimenting with cannabis to help alleviate chronic symptoms, a new University of California San Diego School of Medicine study has identified a sharp increase in cannabis-related emergency department visits among the elderly.

The study, published Jan. 9, 2023 in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society , identified a 1,808% relative increase in the rate of cannabis-related trips to the emergency department among California adults ages 65 and older from 2005 to 2019.

Researchers used a trend analysis of data from the Department of Healthcare Access and Information and found that cannabis-related emergency department visits went from a total of 366 in 2005 to 12,167 in 2019.

The significant increase is particularly troublesome to geriatricians, given that older adults are at a higher risk for adverse health effects associated with psychoactive substances, including cannabis.

“Many patients assume they aren’t going to have adverse side effects from cannabis because they often don’t view it as seriously as they would a prescription drug,” said Benjamin Han, MD, MPH,

the study’s first author and a geriatrician in the Division of Geriatrics, Gerontology, and Palliative Care in the Department of Medicine at UC San Diego School of Medicine.

“I do see a lot of older adults who are overly confident, saying they know how to handle it — yet as they have gotten older, their bodies are more sensitive, and the concentrations are very different from what they may have tried when they were younger.”

The use of cannabis by older adults has increased sharply over the past two decades in the United States with the legalization for medical and recreational purposes in many states. California legalized medical marijuana in 1996 and recreational cannabis in 2016. While there is limited evidence that cannabis may be helpful for specific conditions, older adults are increasingly using the plant-based drug to treat a wide range of symptoms and using it socially — while their perceived risk of regular use is decreasing.

The study highlights that cannabis use among older adults can lead to unin-

YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. Affinia Default Services, LLC, as the duly appointed Trustee, under and pursuant to the power of sale contained in that certain Deed of Trust Recorded March 17, 2006 as Document No.: 20060191535 of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of Riverside County, California, executed by: MARIO RAMIREZ, A MARRIED MAN AS HIS SOLE AND SEPERATE PROPERTY, as Trustor, will be sold AT PUBLIC AUCTION TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER for cash (payable in full at time of sale by cash, a cashier's check drawn by a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association, or savings bank specified in section 5102 of the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state).

All right, title and interest conveyed to and now held by it under said deed of trust in the property situated in said county and state, and as more fully described in the above referenced deed of trust.

Sale Date: February 2, 2023 Sale Time: 9:00 AM Sale Location: At the bottom of the stairway to the building located at 849 W. Sixth Street, Corona, CA 92882 File No.:22-02248CA The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 1278 S Gilbert St, Hemet, CA 92543. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be made in an “AS IS” condition, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said note(s), advances, if any, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, estimated fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust, to-wit: $71,548.33 (Estimated).

Accrued interest and additional advances, if any, will increase this figure prior to sale. It is possible that at the time of sale the opening bid may be less than the total indebtedness due.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL 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 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 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this internet website, www. nationwideposting.com, for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, T.S.# 22-02248CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be 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 22-02248CA 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 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. File No.:2202248CA If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse.

Tell elected officials to keep public notices in your newspaper, where you’ll see them.

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.

Every year in the Missouri legislature — claiming tax money could be saved — bills are introduced to remove these notices from newspapers and place them on the internet.

But, maintaining a website is not free. Nor is access to it.

Where is the savings?

And what is public accountability worth?

Notices printed in a newspaper can’t be hacked, and proof of notice given is obvious for all to see, without having to search on the internet.

Public notices on the internet simply do not fulfill their intended functions: To inform the public and provide accountability for public officials.

Tell ALL of your elected officials you want public notices to stay in the newspaper, where you’ll see them.

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.

Ellen DeGeneres shared an Instagram video of herself standing in front of a raging creek near the Montecito home where she lives with her wife, actor Portia de Rossi. She said in the post that they were told to shelter in place because they are on high ground.

“This is crazy!” the talk show host, wearing a hoodie and raincoat, says in the video. “This creek next to our house never flows, ever.

said there is no way for her to “get off the mountain” with a rushing creek on one side and a mudslide on the other. The 60-year-old owner of the Santa Barbara Bird Sanctuary said one of her employees came to make a weekly food delivery and is stuck, too.

McLeod said she feels fortunate because her home sits on high ground and the power is still on. But she said she tires of the frequent evacuation orders since the massive wildfire followed by the deadly landslide five years ago.

“It is not easy to relocate,” said McLeod. “I totally love it — except in catastrophe.”

Santa Barbara County Sheriff Bill Brown said the decision to evacuate nearly 10,000 people was “based on the continuing high

rate of rainfall with no indication that that is going to change before nightfall.”

Creeks were overflowing, and many roads were flooded.

Northbound lanes of U.S. 101, a key coastal route, were expected to be shut until Tuesday. Many other highways and local roads were closed because of rockslides and flooding.

Up the coast, evacuation orders were issued in Santa Cruz County for about 32,000 residents living near rain-swollen rivers and creeks. The San Lorenzo River was declared at flood stage, and drone footage showed numerous homes sitting in muddy brown water, the top halves of autos peeking out.

Maria Cucchiara, who lives in tiny, flooded Felton,

went for a walk to count her blessings after “a huge branch harpooned” the roof of her small studio, she said.

“I have two kitties, and we could’ve been killed. It was over a ton,” she said. “So needless to say, it was very disturbing.”

Nicole Martin, owner of the Fern River Resort in Felton, described a more laid-back scene Monday.

Her clients sipped coffee amid towering redwood trees and were “enjoying the show,” she said, as picnic tables and other debris floated down the swollen San Lorenzo.

The river is usually about 60 feet (18 meters) below the cabins, Martin said, but it crept up to 12 feet (4 meters) from the cabins.

In Northern California, several districts closed

schools and more than 35,000 customers remained without power in Sacramento — down from more than 350,000 a day earlier after gusts of 60 mph (97 kph) knocked majestic trees into power lines, according to the Sacramento Municipal Utility District. A homeless person killed by a falling tree in the region was among the new deaths announced Monday.

The National Weather Service warned of a “relentless parade of atmospheric rivers” — long plumes of moisture stretching out into the Pacific that can drop staggering amounts of rain and snow. The precipitation expected over the next couple of days comes after storms last week knocked out power, flooded streets, and battered the coastline.

President Joe Biden issued an emergency declaration Monday to support storm response and relief efforts in more than a dozen counties.

The weather service issued a flood watch for a large portion of Northern and Central California, with 6 to 12 inches (15 to 30 centimeters) of rain expected through Wednesday in the already saturated Sacramento-area foothills.

In the Los Angeles area, there was potential for as much as 8 inches (20 centimeters) of rain in foothill areas late Monday and Tuesday. High surf was also expected.

Much of California remains in severe to extreme drought, though the storms have helped fill depleted reservoirs.

nary diseases and interact with other prescription medications.

“We know from work in alcohol that older adults are more likely to make a change in substance use if they see that it is linked to an undesirable medical symptom or outcome — so linking cannabis use similarly could help with behavioral change,” said Alison

Moore, MD, MPH, co-author of the study and chief of the Division of Geriatrics, Gerontology, and Palliative Care in the Department of Medicine at UC San Diego School of Medicine.

“We truly have much to learn about cannabis, given all the new forms of it and combinations of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol),

and this will inform our understanding of risks and possible benefits, too.”

The study highlights that education and discussions with older adults about cannabis use should be included in routine medical care. Yet, according to Moore, current substance uses screening questionnaires typically lump cannabis/marijuana with

non-legal drugs, such as cocaine and methamphetamine, which can lead to patients being hesitant to answer.

“Instead, asking a question like, ‘Have you used cannabis — also known as marijuana — for any reason in the last 12 months?’ would encourage older adults to answer more frankly,” Moore said.

Interestingly, the study found while emergency department visits increased sharply between 2013 and 2017, they leveled off in 2017 after the implementation of Proposition 64. The availability of recreational cannabis does not appear to correlate with a higher rate of cannabis-related emergency department visits among older adults.
