u.S. congressman Pete Aguilar (center) of redlands is among many elected officials who have promised to act in congress to improve air quality in the inland empire. can he keep his promise? Activism cont. from front On December 1, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), having reviewed recent scientific research on health impacts of ozone, issued a draft rule that will possibly strengthen the standard, reducing acceptable levels of ozone from 75 parts per billion (ppb) to 60-70 ppb. It means areas that have been out of compliance will need to rely more on clean energy resources and invest more in resources that can power vehicles and homes in a way that protects air quality. Nowhere is this more needed than in California—as expressed on a Sierra Club information release. However, because of a "polluter loophole" in the Clean Air Act, the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) has the ability submit incomplete pollution reduction plans that only look at partially protecting public health. The loophole was the result of amendments made back in 1990. The South Coast Air Quality Management District, also known as AQMD, is the regulatory body created to ensure the Greater Los Angeles region meets air quality standards. While the air quality in the South Coast region has improved since the inception of the Clean Air Act—as a result of state and national requirements to build

Holidays cont. from front “On behalf of the city we are just extremely proud to have offered the kids an opportunity to come and have fun,” said Parks and Recreation director Mickey Valdivia. “Even though the mountains are really close, not a lot of children in this area get over to the snow. People here are enjoying the outdoors and San Bernardino. I think it’s beautiful.” A group of volunteers, former councilmember Wendy McCammack and Deb Matley among them, managed to organize the event in a short span of three days last year. The difference this year is that the city’s departments decided to collaborate this year to make it a huge, successful event. Valdivia said his department’s event, “Winter Wonderland” was held at the Carousel Mall last year, isolated from the Ho-Ho parade— which took place near Perris Hill Park, the Verdemont Fire Station, and the Police Station in Down-

cars with pollution control equipment like catalytic converters—the Southern California region has close to an astronomical task to reach their goal. As of October 9, bad smog days in Southern California are at over 100 and counting. A recent town hall meeting held by the Sierra Club in Los Angeles on December 4 put into perspective what the continuing trend of relying heavily on fossil fuel investment will do to Southern California communities. “In Southern California you have Real Estate building wherever they can,” said Heather Albright of the California Nurses Association. “More people live near freeways and in other areas where there is high pollution. We are now seeing issues with more vulnerable populations who have less money and less access to health care.” Adrian Martinez, a staff attorney at Air Justice, said its necessary for the region to have a plan of action. Otherwise little to no action will cause agencies to “kick the can down the road.” “The current plan doesn’t tell us how we’re going to meet the standards on time,” Martinez explained. “If we fail to put strong regulations in place we will invest in wrong technologies. “ Martinez said despite the difficulty of reaching the goal of 60-70

town. “Every body was disjointed,” he said. “We got everybody to the table, so we could put on a collaborative event. We had several organizations, different department, and a lot of other people come together for this. We’ve got limited resources to work with, but it doesn’t mean we’re going to bury our heads in the sand. It means we have to work much harder.” Valdivia said individuals and organizations such as Parks and Recreation community program manager Aviana Cerezo, Parks and Recreation commissioners Jennica Billins and Deb Matley, Mitch Osuna, Jim Tickmeyer (sic), the Urban Conservation Corps (UCC), the Police and Fire departments, the Community Development department, and San Bernardino Generation Now made this year’s holiday festivities possible. Cerezo said volunteers met since mid-October to put the event together. “It took a huge amount of responsibility and hours of dedica-

ppb, he remains optimistic it can be achieved. “I’m optimistic that we can meet older standards, said Martinez. “We just need a plan. It is the current flaws we have as pollutant producers that’s plaguing the region.” Sierra Club My Generation Inland Empire director Allen Hernandez of Fontana said he has issued a challenge to local elected officials like San Bernardino County Supervisor Josie Gonzales, who sits on the AQMD board, to meet the old standard. “We have not met the 1990 standard set by the EPA,” Hernandez explained. “We have the worst air in the Southern California region. “The AQMD keeps drafting plans that fail to address how they will protect residents from smog pollution. They cannot keep kicking the can down the road. My question for Josie is, ‘What are you going to do about this?’ When the EPA smog rule comes out, what plans will she have to improve our quality?”

tion to do things like bring in entertainment, ensure maintenance, and decoration,” Cerezo said. “This was an effort to unify and send one message that the city departments are really trying to bring change.” Children lined up near the parking strip at the park to take sleigh rides, while others rushed into the Roosevelt Bowl with their families to watch dancing performances and movies. In addition, residents lined up near Fiscalini Field to watch the commencement of the Ho-Ho parade. Roxanne Negrete of Colton took her three kids Adam, 8, Abel, 5, and Abby, 11 months, to the event. Negrete said the event demonstrated San Bernardino’s slow recovery. “I think this event is pretty neat,” she said. “My kids enjoyed it and it was free. It definitely shows the efforts San Bernardino officials are putting forth to improve itself as a community.”

Elise Brose, Highland (third from left) is congratulated by family and friends after being presented LifeStream’s Volunteer of the Year Award on Wednesday, Dec. 3 at the San Manuel Special Events Center.

lise Brose, Highland, was named LifeStream blood bank’s “Volunteer of the Year” during the organization’s annual recognition luncheon for its volunteers Wednesday, Dec. 3 at the San Manuel Special Events Center. In little more than a year, the San Gorgonio High School and Crafton Hills College graduate has donated more than 1,200 hours to the volunteer program. How did she become involved with LifeStream? “My mom is a LifeStream blood donor, and she suggested I apply to the volunteer program,” Elise said. “It’s been a fantastic experience; I feel a sense of purpose here and that I’m doing something right and good.” She typically volunteers 2-3 days

a week in LifeStream’s San Bernardino office and on Saturdays in the donor center canteen on the same property. Her sights are set on entering the radiology program at Arrowhead Regional Medical Center. “Whatever her role, Elise consistently demonstrates excellent customer service, attentiveness and care to her duties,” said Pat Schindler, manager, LifeStream’s volunteer department. “She often works evenings, weekends and holidays. In fact, many times she has volunteered to substitute with very little notice, displaying her passion for LifeStream’s mission.” Elise was surprised at the luncheon by members of her family and friends, who, unbeknownst to her, were ushered in to share the mo-

ment. The program also included volunteers from LifeStream’s San Bernardino, Riverside, Ontario, Victorville and La Quinta centers being presented Dedication of Service Awards; and lunchtime entertainment of holiday favorites performed by the Lumiere de Chanson Choir from Citrus Valley High School, under the direction of Kim Taylor. LifeStream volunteers perform a variety of important duties; all with the goal of assisting the organization provide needed blood products and services to more than 80 Southern California hospitals.

An Academic Overview: Existentialism and Its Relevance in Social Revolution (Part One).

uman Civilization during the first half of the Twentieth century saw two major powers arise from devastating war destruction take part in a political and military standoff for global supremacy. In spite of relations between the Soviet Union and the United States being softened as a result of Nazi Germany’s aggression in Europe, both nations were suspicious of one another’s actions subsequent to the Great War and preceding the Second World War. Ideology such as McCarthyism that made accusations of subversion or treason without regard for evidence and isolationist foreign policy, such as the Warsaw Pact of Eastern Europe and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) of Western Europe arose due to perceived threats of military action coming from both sides. Disillusioned by these ideas that transcended into neo-colonial and imperial actions across the continents of Africa, Asia, and the Americas, intellectuals such as French Philosopher Albert Camus, African-American author James Baldwin, and French poet Aime Cesaire wrote furiously and passionately about the issues that affected third world colonial societies, the Eastern Bloc nations of Czechoslovakia and Hungary (to name a few), and a segregated but “equal” United States. The prominent ideas of democracy, progress, and civilization to these men were merely political propaganda aimed to cover the

hate-filled racist and capitalist agenda that motivated the foreign policy of that era. In contrast to the belief that the ideas would liberate oppressed peoples in developing regions of the world, the intellectuals were aware that an existentialist way of thinking carried much more significance in efforts to bring cultural liberation and social engagement to the forefront. Whereas Cesaire denounced neocolonialism in Discourse on Colonialism through poetic lines that highlighted Western European hypocrisy, Camus and Baldwin wrote more analytical, theoretical prose works that analyzed race, class, and imperialism on a grander scale. These works when compared to Kurt Vonnegut’s Cat’s Cradle render little dissimilarity. In fact, Vonnegut’s satirical novel can help one further understand existentialism . By addressing the issues of science, religion, and nation, in a more humorous matter, Vonnegut addresses the idea of existentialism by demonstrating the unnaturalness of scientific inventions and the arbitrariness of government and religion. Cesaire in his essay begins by asking the overall question of what colonization fundamentally is. For the communist party member, it was not the desire to push back the frontiers of ignorance, disease, and tyranny through the act of God or as an act of philanthropy, but “Christian pedantry” that laid the dishonest equations of Christianity=civilization and paganism=savagery. Only “Abominable colonialist and racist consequences”, Cesaire wrote, “whose victims were to be the Indians, the yellow peoples, and the Negroes,” is the end result of colonial aspirations. In the broader sense, the author argues that no one colonizes innocently or with impunity. Such a person or nation-state with that sense of power justifies colonization is already a sick civilization. By using Marx’s ideology of historical materialism to outline the “false consciousness” of the proletariat-colonized population of third world nations, Cesaire addresses capitalism as the institutional and ideological framework of the bourgeois class. Cesaire argues that a capitalist society is able to impose the ideas it finds suitable for the working class. His solution, as stated in his essay, was for people “to see clearly and think clearly” to avoid its deception. His ideas were ex-

istentialist in the sense that it questioned the foundations of racism and colonialism and aimed to implement ideological foundations that were necessary in order to transcend from a colonized population to a “classless society”. In simple terms, revolution to Cesaire was the only way in which the proletariat could rise up and

Disappointed about lack of transparency

find it very disappointing and disheartening to read that newly elected Mayor Richard De La Rosa, Councilwoman Summer Zamora Jorrin and Councilman Isaac Suchil dissented from voting against transparency. Isn’t that what a majority of Colton citizens want? Openness and transparency? And isn’t that why we voted for them?

If you look deep into these elected officials, most of them worked under former Mayor Frank Gonzales, the king of hiring family. We don’t need or want nepotism. Yes, family members supposedly “volunteer” their services, but in the long run, they don’t do it for free. They eventually wind up getting hired to work for the city. This has to stop now before it spreads.

Words to Think About: Christmas history and traditions

By G. W. Abersold Ph.D.

ecember is the traditional month of the year to celebrate Christmas. The name stands for “Christ’s Mass,” which is a Roman Catholic term. The pressing question remains. Why is Christmas celebrated on December 25? The word “syncretism” is a theological term. Basically, it refers to the thoughts and practices that were taken from pagan or Jewish religions and incorporated into Christianity. During the first 300 years following the life of Jesus, there were three other religions opting with Christianity for dominance. Judaism, Emperor Worship and

Mithraism. Several practices were adopted from each of them into Christianity. Syncretism. The term Mithraism comes from its “god,” Mithra. One of the tenets of Mithraism was the Mithra was born on December 25. For several reasons it is unlikely that Jesus was born on December 25. I’ve been in Bethlehem in December. Its altitude is compatible to Running Springs. It was cold, rainy and sleeting snow. Shepherds would not have had their sheep outside in that weather. Neither would a taxing be set in a cold season. It more likely would have been set in the Spring. The influence of Mithraism should be considered. Josephus was a Jewish historian. He records the death of Herod the Great as being on March 13, 4 BCE (Before the Christian Era.) The same Herod that was killing all the babies under two years of age. He was out to kill Jesus. This means that Jesus was born around 4 BCE. The first recorded date of Christmas being celebrated on December 25th was in 336AD, during the reign of Emperor Constantine. “A few years later, in 350 AD Pope Julius I officially declared that the birth of Jesus would be celebrated

on the 25th of December.” The tradition of giving gifts has two origins. The Roman Festival of Saturnalia (between December 17 and 23rd) to honor the Roman god Saturn. Syncretism. The other tradition is about St. Nicholas of Turkey. As Bishop he would distribute gifts to children on Christmas Eve. January 6 is called Epiphany. It commemorates the arrival of the Wisemen. According to the Bible they arrived at the “house”, different from the stable. Christmas trees are a huge tradition. They originated in northern Europe, primarily in Germany. The Christmas tree was brought to England by Queen Victoria’s husband, Prince Albert from his native Germany. The “tree” was brought to America around 1848. The idea of Christmas cards began in England. Sir Henry Cole is credited with creating the first real Christmas card. The story goes, he was curator of the Victoria and Albert museum and was too busy to send Christmas greetings. He, therefore, commissioned John Calcott Horsley to design a card with the greeting, “Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.” Other traditions about Christmas

are: Christmas Stockings, Mistletoes, Holly and Ivy, Poinsettias, Candy Canes, Hanukkah, Kwanzas, Egg-nog, etc. However, probably the most popular of all Christmas traditions is the singing of Christmas Carols. Where and when did they all begin? The very first recorded songs with a Christmas meaning was in the second century in Rome. They were all in Latin with the message being stilted and propaganda. In the ninth and tenth centuries, songs of rhyming verses became popular. Primarily because of Milanese Bishop St. Ambrose. Enter St. Francis of Assisi. He abandoned Latin, used theatrics and songs were sung in the audience’s native language. Martin Luther really gave Christmas carols a push. Tradition says he composed “Away in a Manger.” Then, the Puritans banned the singing of Christmas Carols. Too worldly. Public singing really got a push during John and Charles Wesley’s establishment of the Methodist Church. He urged the people to sing “lustily.” Charles wrote the famous carol, “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing;” even though there was great controversy with George

Whitefield. “Silent Night, Holy Night” was composed in 1817 by Joseph Mohr, a priest in Oberndorf, Austria, and the organist of his church, Franz Gruber. It has been recorded more than any other song in history. Phillip Brooks, an Anglican Priest, wrote the words and Lewis Redner composed the music, to “O Little Town of Bethlehem” in 1868. Brooks was inspired after visiting Bethlehem and viewing it from Jerusalem- 7 miles away. It is the easiest carol to sing and the only popular carol native to America, beside “It Came Upon the Midnight Clear”—1849. Secular Christmas music has had its birth in the USA. “Jingle Bells,” “I Wish You a Merry Christmas, “Silver Bells,” “I’ll Be Home for Christmas,” “Rudolph the Rednosed Reindeer,” “I Saw Momma Kissin’ Santa Claus”, “Deck the Halls,” among many others. And, of course the most popular, “White Christmas.” It was composed by Irving Berlin and made famous by Bing Crosby. Bing sang it for the first time on December 25, 1941. Amen. Selah. So be it. And a Merry Christmas.

Katrina Taylor thankful to give back after surviving assassination attempts, two prison terms

etting shot in the head with a 9MM pistol and having an arm blown off by a shotgun was not enough to scare Katrina Taylor straight. She continued to smoke crack and support it by street-walking her beat under the supervision of a "human trafficker" along the unforgiving stretches of Baseline and E Streets in San Bernardino. It took sentences in state prisons in Huntsville, Texas and in Chino to finally rid Taylor of a cocaine and alcohol addition. "I first realized I had a problem when I crossed the line by involving my

kids in my lifestyle," recalled Taylor, 44. "I finally was able to get my children back together in a rented motel but I was so addicted that I went off and left them there and never came back." Sober seven years and now living in Humboldt County, Taylor returned to San Bernardino last week to visit friends at the annual PossAbilities celebration dinner and volunteer at the 25th Loma Linda Lopers Holiday half-marathon event. Her trip to San Bernardino was cut short after she had her purse and all her money stolen while attending church. Quickly changing the subject, Taylor said the return south produced more good than bad.

"I was approved a grant to buy an adaptive bike so I can enter challenged athlete triathlon competitions," said Taylor. The funds were provided through PossAbilities, a Loma Linda University Health sponsored program for those with permanent disabilities. LLU Health is also the primary sponsor of the Loma Linda Lopers running club, where Taylor went after her release from California Institution for Women, Chino. She defined her hard time locked up as "a rescue, not an arrest." Taylor was directed to the Lopers by a church member, San Bernardino County Sheriff Steve Tanner and his wife. The Lopers prepare runners for the Los Angeles Marathon and Tanner felt this would be good for Taylor's rehab. One arm and all, Taylor was able to finish the full 26 miles of the 2011 L.A Marathon, despite a torrential rain that flooded the course. She has gone on to finish 13 half marathons and two triathlons. Her physical accomplishments are magnified since running requires the use of two arms for proper balance and rhythm. "Building up to a marathon is like recovering from addiction. It takes one foot at a time. This is not about me. The Lord has allowed me to live so I can share with others." Taylor realizes that she was lucky to even live long enough to do her 4 1/2 years in prison. Taylor was shot multiple times about 15 years ago by other addicts who thought she was going to snitch them off to police about a money-order embezzling scheme. She was lured into her "friends" car and driven to a rural area outside of Sacramento. They told her to get out and three of them pointed guns at her and said, "Are you ready to die." They opened fire and left her for dead on the side of the road. "I layed there and

could hear cars driving by. Someone finally called for help." She attributed the situation because she needed to feel accepted and that she was very naive. "After I was shot, I was flown to UC Davis Medical Center where I was pronounced clinically dead. My recovery was a miracle but I went back to using." When she visits San Bernardino, Taylor will stop on Baseline and talk to prostitutes about their getting off the street and away from their traffickers' (pimps). "Some of the same girls are still out there. I wasn't afraid of being there when I was using. I'm sure not afraid to go back now that I have the Lord watching." Taylor says her children have allowed her back in their lives, but still hold a grudge for the way she treated them. "If you are out there and are tired of using or walking

the streets, get into a narcotics anonymous program. Get connected to a program. Go back to your family. Nobody is going to love you like your family." She currently gives back through a variety of organizations including Redlands-based Christians Actively Demolishing Exploitation (CADE), a prostitution diversion program which is planning to work with the human relations commission in Humboldt. Taylor is also currently learning office management through an internship in Humboldt. Taylor says the first sign of recovery is keeping your word. "If you promise you'll do something, then do it. Make appointments on time. If not, call and let them know you'll be late. When I was an addict, I always broke my word."

Probation Department offers intensive job skills training By MJ Duncan

he San Bernardino County Probation Department is not only tasked with ensuring probationers remain in compliance with the law, but also to provide programs that will ensure their future success. One such program offered through the department is Probation to Work, a partner program with San Bernardino County’s Workforce Development offering intensive job skills training. The program is offered weekly through employment-readiness workshops at each of the probation department’s Day Reporting Centers in Rancho Cucamonga, San Bernardino and Victorville, along with a probation workforce specialist on-hand to facilitate training. Workshops address job readiness, networking and resume tips, dos and don’ts of interviewing, how to properly respond to questions regarding criminal convictions, among others. In addition to workshops probationers can take advantage of classes that offer certification in food handling and forklift operating, as well as access to a fax machine, computers and telephones used for seeking employment. According to Probation Communications Director Chris Condon, before the establishment of the DRCs many probationers who strived to succeed following their incarceration didn’t have the tools, guidance or assistance to maintain that path. But through the DRCs individuals are given significantly more substantive components to

succeed in life. “We challenge them to think about how to get dressed for an interview, how to build a resume and be prepared to respond in regards to their past conviction,” Condon explained. “We help them set reasonable expectations and to not get discouraged when they don’t get that job.” The benefit of the DRCs is the collaboration of various treatment and resource agencies operating within the county that are accessible under one roof, for example Public Health, child support, and Workforce Development. This contributes to the overall success of probationers eager to rehabilitate

and become contributing members of the society, said Condon. Alex Vega, a Workforce Development Specialist with the county who works at the Central DRC, recently shared a success story regarding a probationer who will only be referred to as WH, who began his journey with the DRC in August. Upon completion of his session, WH wrote a resume and enthusiastically embarked on the path of finding employment. Following an interview procured through Probation staff in collaboration with 1st Class Staffing in Rancho Cucamonga, WH landed a full-time job as a laborer on August 11. Through his dedication and

The San Bernardino County Probation Department’s Day Reporting Centers in Rancho Cucamonga, San Bernardino and Victorville offer probationers a one-stop shop of assistance, services and programs to facilitate their future success. One program is Probation to Work, a partnership with the county’s Workforce Development Program, which addresses job readiness, networking and resume tips, dos and don’ts of interviewing, how to properly respond to questions regarding criminal convictions, among others. Pictured is Probation Officer Mona Vega doing an intake in the DRC referring the offender into the Workforce Development Program.

strong work ethic, WH was soon assigned additional duties to perform maintenance on the industrial washing machines. Weeks after he was out-performing the current maintenance manager and subsequently promoted to take his place. “The difference we make here at the DRC is comparable to none,” Vegas said. “This is one of many great success stories to come.”

In October, a job search kickoff for probationers was hosted at the San Bernardino Day Reporting Center. The goal was to help probationers with their resumes, practice job interviewing, and introduce them to a potential employer. The Probation Department is looking forward to hosting more of employment assistance events in the future.

Support Small Business: Green Shack Marketplace a “one stop shop” for San Bernardino resident

ince 1977, the Green Shack Marketplace has been a frequent stop for San Bernardino residents looking to grab some delicious food or seek utility services. After thirty five years of constantly adapting to the “needs and wants” of the community, the small business now offers liquor, a deli that was labeled as the best in the region by Inland Empire Magazine in January, bill payment, tax, and airline services, and much more in the 3,800-square foot building that stands on 163 W. Highland Avenue. “There’s been an economic depression for the last couple years and I know the city has been battling the bankruptcy,” said Manal Iskander, the market’s manager. “I honestly think it begins with trust. The community here trusts us. We cater to them. As the community changes a bit, the need has changed.” Iskander took over the responsibility of overseeing the operations of the market from her parents, Nardine Iskander and Jerry Martinez early this year and has since

brought in her Information Technology Company PCtronics to transform the way customers order their food. For example, local business employees who may work miles away from the market have the opportunity to have their food delivered and for local residents that may not have access to a credit card can pay their bills with cash. “We’ve created a mobile app and a website to allow customers to order more directly,” she said. “We also have a Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram page. They are action pages that allow for customers to order easier and perhaps more efficiently.” Despite the new innovative changes introduced to the market, Iskander said she has no intention on renovating the building itself, expressing she wants to ensure it keeps its genuineness. “I want the restaurant to continue to have that rustic mom and pop feel,” she said. “To make it modern may remove the authenticity of our business being 35 years old and having the same owners.” Rusty Palmer, a graduate student at Cal State San Bernardino and fervent supporter of the Green

Shack said the business is a “concrete example” of what innovation and community support can do make small business thrive. “The Green Shack is a place where a business owner took the initiative to go beyond,” he said. “They united technology and small business together, which led to more opportunities for employees and the employers and it came out of that one little place. It’s amazing!” The Green Shack Marketplace will be adding a café near the patio area to attract coffee drinkers and guests who seek to dine in for their deli. In addition they are offering space for local organizations to conduct business meetings.

the US Army and was Honorably Discharged in 1972. “We remember when he enlisted and we were very proud of him,” shared Eloise Gomez Reyes, niece of Joel. One of his assignments was as a driver for the Colonel and he enjoyed this duty. Upon his return, he married,

San Bernardino Police Department’s Community Food, Toy Drive a huge success

Officr John DiMola loads up and displays the toys inside the "Bearcat".

By Ricardo Tomboc

n Tuesday December 9, the San Bernardino Police Department held its first "Stuff the Bearcat Food and Toy Drive. They sent out requests to the community for new unwrapped toys and non-perishable canned food items. The Bearcat is the department's armored vehicle, which was parked in front of the police department. Starting at 9:00 am until 4:00 pm, several officers and citizen patrol volunteers collected the various items from the community. The goal was to fill up the entire back portion of the Bearcat. The goal was accomplished as the entire back floor space was filled and piled up high by several feet. 215 toys and 10 boxes of food items were collected. The Salvation Army Corps of San Bernardino was the recipient of all the food items collected. The toy items were all donated to the US Marine Corps who will distribute all the toys to kids in the San Bernardino area. There was Christmas music playing all day long. A large air fan filled "Santa Clause" was poised next to a marked police car and caught the eye of every youngster

walking by. Radio Stations announced the toy drive all day long. Facebook and Twitter social medial forums were also used to make announcements. Irene Martinez of San Bernardino said that she learned about the food and toy drive on Facebook and also heard the announcements on the radio. Irene brought her blue truck, which was loaded with several boxes. She said that she wanted to do something positive for the community and was happy to make the donations. Several police department employees came by to drop off their various donations as well. The Forensics Division of the police department donated several hundreds of dollars towards the toy drive. Officer Nikki Alvarez and Officer Donald Sawyer walked through the various divisions within the police department and collected more money. They used the funds to purchase additional toys at the Mattel Toy Store in San Bernardino. Officer John Di Mola and Officer Clint Walton are the department's Homeless Officer Advocates. Both officers were working hard talking to the various donors and stacking the various toy and food items into the Bearcat. Some donors brought in one toy, which was all they could afford, while other donors came with several boxes. Officers

Di Mola and Walton appreciated every item that was given. Community Service Officer Cheri Williams, assigned to the Community Affairs Davison, coordinated the event and was responsible for advertising and organizing the event. David and Patrisha Kilmer are supporters of the community and They the police department. brought several gifts and food items to the event. They heard about the toy and food drive from Twitter and Facebook. David and Patrisha are both recent graduates of the Citizens Police Academy. David is also a member of the Riverside County Probation Department. Sergeant Shauna Gates was supervising the operations and received some cash donations from a few donors who did not know what kind of toys to get. One gentleman gave Sergeant Gates a few dollars and said that that was all he had and hoped that it could be put to good use. Sergeant Gates hopes to repeat the toy and food drive next year! In addition to the toys and food items collected at the police department, donation boxes were also placed at Costco, Sam's Club, and Curacao Department store in San Bernardino; which will be picked up in a few days.

The Wildcats (14-1), coming off a 36-33 win over Poly to win the CIF-SS Inland Division title the week before, advance to play Concord Clayton Valley Charter at 4 p.m. on December 20 at the StubHub Center in Carson for the Di-

vision II championship. Trailing 34-24 with less than five minutes remaining in the third quarter, REV’s offense went on a 35-7 tear to finish out the game. The Wildcats climbed back into it after Malik Lovette leaped for a touchdown to close the gap 34-31, and took the lead when Harmon found daylight for a 44-yard rushing touchdown to make it 38-34 with just over two minutes left in the quarter. Ridgeview (12-2) looked poised to score on its ensuing possession, but the REV defense stiffened during a goal-line stand and stopped the Wolf Pack on a fourth-and-goal at the 1. It didn’t take long for the Wildcats to score on their next drive as Lovette turned a screen pass into an 88-yard touchdown and double digit lead. Faimolo’s third touchdown of the night essentially sealed the game, giving REV a 52-34 advantage with eight minutes left in regulation. Harman rushed for 89 yards and two scores, and added a 97-yard kickoff return in the first half while Lovette totaled 195 total yards and two touchdowns for the Wildcats.

ontana Summit’s girls basketball team defeated Eastvale Roosevelt 55-40 during its 2014-15 home opener on Tuesday, December 9. Senior Doylebonet Walker led the Skyhawks with 10 points, including two 3-pointers that shut down a late push by the Mustangs. The Skyhawks never trailed, controlling the pace of the game after freshman Alondra Duncan’s layupand-one with 3:47 in the first broke a 4-4 tie. After that play, Summit (4-1) closed out the first quarter with an 8-1 run and double-digit lead, 155. The Mustangs closed the gap in the second behind Tatyana Babb, who scored six points in the quar-

ter but the Skyhawks held on for a 27-19 lead at halftime. Chioma Bush, Makayla Thompson and Duncan made consecutive baskets in the early part of the third to extend Summit’s lead to 34-21. Roosevelt answered with three straight buckets of its own to whittle the lead down to six, 34-28, making it look like a game again. The momentum went right back to the Skyhawks after that. Following a free-throw by Bush, Walker, who hadn’t made a bucket in the game, nailed back-to-back threes along with a layup over a 60 second stretch to push the lead right back to 14 and it never got close again. “I have been getting on her,” said Skyhawks Head Coach Latrina Duncan. “She was our MVP last year. Her shots haven’t been going down the way as she would like. I

It was a good win as the team preps for the upcoming season in the Sunkist League. “Were young, we have seniors but were young,” said Duncan. “It’s going to take time before they get to where I want them defensively, but they brought energy tonight.”

Disney on Ice “Let’s Celebrate” brings Mickey and friends to Ontario’s Citizens Business Bank Arena

By Yazmin Alvarez

party isn’t a party if all of your friends aren’t invited. At least that’s what Mickey and Minnie Mouse think so they’ve added all of the Inland Empire to their guest as “Disney on Ice presents Let’s Celebrate,” a colossal four-day run and party on ice at the Citizens Business Bank Arena in Ontario starting Christmas day. The show, presented by Stonyfield YoKids Organic Yogurt, brings more than 50 favorite Disney characters from more than a dozen Disney stories together for “a celebration unlike any other,” said Mariyah Thurston, an Inland Empire-based ensemble skater for the show. And while it may be the holiday season, it’s not the typical holiday party, she added. “It’s a celebration of all holidays—Valentine’s Day, Mardi Gras, Chinese New Year—all in one,” said Thurston. In addition to the yearly happenings from around the globe, the show also takes guests on a cele-

bration for a Very Merry Unbirthday with Alice and the Mad Hatter, a Hawaiian luau with Lilo & Stitch and a winter wonderland with Woody, Jessie and Buzz Lightyear for a trip to Brazil for Carnival and Japan to see the Cherry Blossom festival. Sharing just some of what the audience can expect, Thurston dishes on the opening act: “It starts with Lumiere singing and skating out to twinkling dim lighting and introducing the characters, then in a matter of minutes, all of the Disney friends are out there.” But the skater’s favorite segment, the Halloween haunt, she said.

“There’s Jack Skellington, zombies and they bring out Maleficent and the Disney Villains—it’s so intriguing.” To catch the celebration of the year featuring Disney friends, tickets for the Dec. 25-28 shows at the Citizens Business Bank Arena can be purchased at the Box Office, 4000 East Ontario Center Parkway in Ontario, or online at AXS.com. Can’t make the show in Ontario? The celebration also takes place at the Honda Center in Anaheim Dec. 18- 21 and continues Dec. 31 through January 4 at the Long Beach Arena.
