INSIDE Employers must pay for or reimburse employee for cell phones or face litigation
Our world is filled with technology. In fact, mobile devices out number both personal computers and humans, it’s not surprising that we use our mobile devices for both business and pleasure. In a recent published opinion the California Court of Appeal issued a ruling that is sure to cause issues to any workplace that has a BYOD program.

Pro-Choice referendum could undo mandatory vaccines Petition to recall Senator Jeff Stone moves forward By Michelle Mears-Gerst
A grassroots campaign is seeking to overturn a bill recently signed into law that removes all exemptions to vaccine requirements for school entry except those medically indicated is growing. A meeting held at the Murrieta Community Center on Wednesday July 23 had more than 300 people pre-register to attend the event. Dr. Todd Donohoe and his wife Veronica Donohoe organized the educational call-to-action event. The group is against SB 277 and believes in pro-choice for vaccinations. On July 14, the California Office of the Attorney General approved a referendum to overturn SB 277 and restore a parent’s right to a religious or personal belief exemption. Former Assemblyman Tim Donnelly filed the referendum. Those who attended the community meeting were able to sign the referendum and learn how to get involved in collecting more signatures. Donnelly On June 30, Governor Jerry Brown signed into law Senate Bill 277 a mandatory vaccination bill that eliminated the personal belief exemptions (PBE). This means that any child in public or private school must be vaccinated.
The bill only exempts children from vaccinations if family medical history and medical reasons justify a physician to not recommend an immunization. Senator Jeff Stone, a pharmacist for 34 years co-authored the bill and states on his webpage it will protect California’s children, from many diseases like measles, which remains one of the leading causes of death around the world. The legislation was prompted by an outbreak of the measles that originated in Disneyland, spreading to more than 130 people. In addition to the SB 277 referendum, a petition to recall State Senator Jeff Stone was kicked off at the Wednesday meeting. The campaign is called, “Citizens for Medical Choice.” “It is unfortunate that it had to come to this but we certainly tried to make our voices heard and they aren't listening,” said parent, and local business owner David Serpa. Serpa is a realtor in town, a father of two and served in the Marine Corps. When he first heard SB 277 was signed into law he thought of packing his bags and taking his wife and children to Texas. “What if they pass this at the federal level? If they do not see any repercussions in their actions, they will. This is frustrating. I am disappointed in Senator Jeff Stone. Big pharmaceutical has a lot of money and influence in our political infrastructure,” said Serpa. “The nation is looking at California as an example. I have never retreated in my entire life and I am not going to start now,” said Serpa. “It is time we take back our state.” Citizens for Medical Choice, needs 30,800 signatures to hold a recall election.
“Our theme is, "Don't give up on California!" We need to take it back from the big government politicians that think they know better and are running this state into the ground,” said Serpa. Diana Miller spoke to the crowd as a Christian mom, “Religious freedom is supposed to be granted under the first amendment. Now we can’t and I am appalled by that so now I became an activist.” The Sacramento Bee reported last week that some of the California state lawmakers supporting bill SB277 to remove all parental exemptions to vaccines have direct financial ties to the makers of the vaccines. “Pharmaceutical companies and their trade groups gave more than $2 million to current members of the Legislature in 2013-2014, about 2 percent of the total raised, records show. Nine of the top 20 recipients either are legislative leaders or serve on the Assembly or Senate health committees. Receiving more than $95,000, the top recipient of industry campaign cash is Sen. Richard Pan, a Sacramento Democrat and doctor who is carrying the vaccine bill. In addition, the industry donated more than $500,000 to outside campaign spending groups that helped elect some current members last year. Pharmaceutical companies also spent nearly $3 million more during the 2013-2014 legislative sessions lobbying the Legislature, the governor, the state pharmacists’ board and other agencies, according to state filings.” Continuation on page 2

Children Stalked and Assaulted in Menifee
A terrible experience befell two children from Menifee when, a 19-year-old man lured them into a home and assaulted them. The children were siblings, a 12-year-old girl and her younger brother, 10. Michael Orrantia, a resident of Menifee, was recently arrested and booked on the suspicion of burglary, sexual assault on a child, and false imprisonment in direct association with the allegations the children made to authorities. He has since been charged and held on a $1 million bail.

Another concern for people against SB 277 is Section 120325 of the Health and Safety Code that lists the childhood diseases the vaccinations will focus on. Section 120328 lists ten specific diseases then item 11 reads, “Any other disease deemed appropriate by the department.” According to Dr. Donohoe there are 300 more vaccines coming down the pipeline.

Stone is not the only Senator now facing a possible recall of his elected seat. Visit us at menifeebuzz.com for more links and details on this article. The Fresno Bee announced this week, “A campaign to recall Sen.

Proponents have until Dec. 31 to collect 35,926 verified signatures from registered

choice for vaccinations. “Every parent should have a right to make an educated choice on whether or not they want to vaccinate their child,” said Dr. Donohoe. Kinsen Liu who attended the event as a concerned parent of two children said, “If I have no choice to give my children a vaccination if my children have a side effect then what who is responsible for the medical costs of dealing with a child made sick from a vaccine.” In 1986 The National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986 (NCVIA or Act) was passed to protect pharmaceutical companies from being directly sued. Instead, under the ACT, awards are paid out of a fund created by an excise tax on each vaccine dose. Manufacturers enjoy significant tort-liability protections and the Act eliminates manufacturer liability for a vaccine’s unavoidable, adverse side effects. On February 22, 2011, the U.S. Supreme Court shielded drug companies from all liability for harm caused by vaccines mandated by government when companies could have made a safer vaccine.
A mother rocks her baby while listening to the speakers against SB277. Governor Jerry Brown wrote when he signed the bill into law, "The science is clear that vaccines dramatically protect children against a number of infectious and dangerous diseases.” Brown also wrote in his signing message, "While it's true that no medical intervention is without risk, the evidence shows that immunization powerfully benefits and protects the community.''

Local Murrieta Mayor Now Accused of Sexual Harassment By C.J. Leger Not long after the Murrieta City Council launched a probe into Mayor Harry Ramos’ various allegations of misconduct and coercion, a woman has come forward to add to the allegations, claiming that Ramos sexually harassed her in January. Kathleen Smith says she attended a mixer party hosted by the Chamber of Commerce at the Murrieta Spectrum Shopping Center at the beginning of the year. It was here she said that Mayor Harry Ramos became increasingly inappropriate with his actions and his words toward her. Ramos allegedly made verbal advances at Mrs. Smith and even made some physical ones at the party. According to Kathleen Smith, after the party was over, the unwanted advances continued into the parking lot. She was quoted by KABC as saying: “Without asking, he grabbed me and started to kiss me, putting his tongue in my mouth, and I was stunned and shocked." According to reports and Kathleen’s own statement, the incident had not been reported prior to her being contacted by the private investigator contracted by the city council to conduct an investigation on Ramos’ already reported misconduct and inappropriate behavior by other members of city government and business owners, which has led many to doubt her story.
However, the single mother of three children reportedly had witnesses at the event, which also came forward and gave their statements to the investigator, according to Dan Gilleon, Kathleen Smith’s, attorney. Smith attended the party as part of her work duties while she was working as a sales representative at a local radio station at the time. According to Smith, she struggled with reporting problems to authorities or even mentioning the event to anyone, but now she has decided to do so in an effort to set an example for her daughter who is now 13. The City of Murrieta issued a statement following the allegations as did Mayor Ramos himself. The city was quoted by KABC with the following statement: "The city received the claim yesterday, and the claim has been referred to the

City’s Joint Power Agency and they are reviewing it. The city has 45 days to take action on the claim”. On Friday of that week, Mayor Harry Ramos held a press conference to address the allegations of sexual harassment and other misconduct allegations that provoked the city council to launch the initial investigation. At the press conference he denied ever sexually assaulting Smith and stated that the allegations were an attack on his character and his family. According to the Mayor, he possesses evidence that would exonerate him on the sexual harassment allegations and prove that Smith is not being truthful but chose not to divulge the information at the conference. Instead he stated: “I refuse to retaliate with the same file disregard of how public attacks hurt families." At the same press conference Ramos also defended his character against the initial allegations of misconduct with the city staff and constituents. He claims that the allegations that the investigations are racially motivated, claiming that the top reason for why his accusers and colleagues want him removed is because "He's Mexican”. Shortly after the allegations of sexual harassment made by Smith were reported, the Murrieta Chamber of Commerce effectively suspended the mayor’s membership. According to a letter written by the Chamber, Ramos, Rick Dudley (city manager),
and fellow City Council members were notified of the suspension, which stated the reason being was because of the “serious complaints of inappropriate conduct”. The complaints were regarding misconduct in both city matters and Chamber of Commerce events, where Smith is said to have been harassed by the mayor in January. As a courtesy, the Chamber of Commerce extends membership to city council members, however, Ramos has been exempt from this, and he will no longer be able to attend Chamber functions as a private citizen or as an elected official. Aside from the City Council’s internal investigation of Ramos and Smith’s sexual harassment allegations, the Chamber also received complaints of sexual misconduct by Ramos at a recent event. According to guests and other members, Ramos engaged in inappropriate behavior at the Annual Installation and Awards program held on July 18 at the Pechanga Resort and Casino, which also influenced their decision to suspend the mayor’s.

By John Farrell Well we've gone from Spanish to Mediterranean. How about some Japaneses? The restaurant is called Sushi Zen. I love sushi, but I don't like paying $14.00 for a single roll or $8.00 for a couple of pieces of Nigiri. So I used to drive all the way to Riverside for some good, all you can eat, Sushi. I know, a lot of you are thinking there is no such thing as good all you can eat sushi. Well I'm not talking about the buffet style sushi drying out on a tray while people are mulling around it. . I'm talking about a real sushi bar with all the food made fresh as you talk and have fun with one of the sushi chefs The chefs are great fun and can put together just about
anything. If your real nice and buy them a beer, they may even make you a special dish. It's not a big place but man is it good. Located again in strip mall (I must have a thing for strip malls). This little place offers great nigiri with a variety of fresh fish sliced before your eyes. The pieces of fish are big and the rice is small. Just the way I like it. Tender fresh fish is my favorite but if your into to cut rolls or hand rolls or some hot dishes they excel at that too. It's all there for you for one price. Prices for the all you can eat meals range from $19.95 for lunch to $24.95 for dinner. A very good price when you consider all the sushi I can consume. They even have Japanese beer by the pitcher. What else could you ask for. If your heading to Sushi Zen on a weekend and like sitting at the sushi bar, get there early. This is already a favorite of the locals. There are also tables available if your intimidated trying to act like you know what your talking about when It comes to eating sushi. Sushi Zen is located in the same mall as the Walmart store off Railroad Canyon in Lake Elsinore Stop in for some great food before or after a baseball game. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

TECH TALK
Hello, my name is Yanik Gozlan from The Computer Repair Experts and I write “Tech Talk”. My goal is to give tips and information on the latest gadgets or common issues you may have with your technology. I have been helping people solve their technology problems since 2002. With multiple certifications and over 10 years of experience in this industry, I will try to educate and share common interests that most of the surrounding areas are talking about.
How To Make Facebook Work For Your Business There’s a digital divide in the small-business world—between those companies that know how to use social networks like Facebook and those that don’t have a clue. If you’re on the clueless side, it’s not too late. You can learn. First, before you even begin a Facebook presence for your business, you need three things. You need an appealing website, you need fresh content on your site regularly, and you need email marketing or some other mechanism to capture customer email addresses. Your Facebook page is the sizzle, your website is the steak. It’s a waste of time to spend hours posting on Facebook if your site sucks. Once you’ve got your Facebook profile up and running,the best way to connect with existing and potential customers is with
quality content. You can’t just post and say, ‘Hi, I’m in the barbershop today‘. You need to make your content engaging. Create a survey or a photo contest for people who like your business. This is not complicated. You can do it easily on your own. But you need to do it, first and foremost. Remember: The purpose of your Facebook page is not to sell stuff to people, it’s to en-
gage them. Luckily for you, that’s simple to do. If you’re a veterinarian, you might post photos of various pets—a dog, a cat, a tarantula—and ask your followers to vote for their favorite. The key to Facebook is getting people to know, like, and trust you. Once they do, they’re more apt to buy what you’re selling. I have two main principles when it comes to Facebook. First is to post, frequently and relevantly. Second, pay a few extra bucks to have sponsored posts that amplify your message.”
Facebook Promoted Posts are posts that appear higher in the News Feed of fans and friends of fans. Promoted Posts cost a flat fee to reach a given number of users. Yeah, you’re paying Facebook money, but you can do really good targeting. If you’re interested in women in the Southwest who like knitting, you can granularly get to them. There are also a number of tools you can use to measure your Facebook campaigns. Facebook Insights is functional and free. It tells you about your traffic—where it’s coming from, who the visitors are, their age, gender, and all sorts of other details. What I tell small-business owners is to clearly articulate their goals at the beginning of their Facebook efforts. Is your goal to drive traffic to your site? Or get people to purchase? Or to get more walk-ins to your store? Based on what your goal is, you can have Facebook work for you. And you can do it all by yourself.

Many families find it difficult to have financial discussions. And your kids may not be up for the discussion because they don’t want to think about their parents getting older. While these conversations can cause tension and lead to tough decisions, it’s easier to have them before an unexpected event occurs or hasty trade-offs have to be made. Consider inviting your children to join you for a meeting with your financial advisor if you have one. A professional’s objective viewpoint can be especially valuable for financial conversations between generations of family members.

Biz Buzz Mid Summer Slump
Here we are, middle of Summer and past the mid-year mark on 2015. Let’s face it, it’s hot outside, kids are out of school and restless and business can be suffering if you haven’t taken the steps to prepare for the end of the year. Did you just gasp? Yes, the end of 2015 is in sight and you need to steady yourself as we approach Fall and the dreaded or celebrated Holiday Season. With the thermometer reaching 100+, people start to stay indoors in the air conditioning when they should be outside marketing. We say we’ll do it tomorrow morning when it is cooler but tomorrow comes and we get sidetracked and remember by noon. So we promise tomorrow is the day but… My suggestion, put it on the cal-
endar as an appointment because you always keep your appointments. A traditional business model shows your hard work paying off 2 weeks-2 months after your effort. Same with ‘no’ work, if you are all play in the Summer your Fall may suffer. If you ramp up your efforts in the Fall, you could be hit with the lackadaisical attitude of most clients waiting for after the new year to start anything new. See the pattern? Now is the time to act! Go against the grain and start pushing yourself today with extra effort to carry you through the Fall. What you
do now will pay off with your goals and you may be able to enjoy those holidays a little more without scrambling for business. Yes, it is hot, but so is your business if you rally around the goals you set in the beginning of the year and follow through with taking your business Up One Level.

Employers must pay for or reimburse employee for cell phones or face litigation Our world is filled with technology. In fact, mobile devices out number both personal computers and humans, it’s not surprising that we use our mobile devices for both business and pleasure. In a recent published opinion the California Court of Appeal issued a ruling that is sure to cause issues to any workplace that has a BYOD program. Some businesses utilize a BYOD or Bring Your Own Device program where the employee uses their own technology in the performance of their job. The California Court of Appeal has now told employers that if California employees must use their cell phones for work-related calls, they must be reimbursed a reasonable portion of their cell phone bills for that use. Colin Cochran v. Schwan’s Home Service, Inc., Court of Appeal (August 12, 2014) “An employee need only show that he or she was required to use a personal cell phone to make work-related calls, and he or she was not reimbursed”. This ruling applied to a class action by service managers seeking reim-
bursement of work-related cell phone expenses, but will also apply to smart phones used to access business data in the Cloud and on network servers. Under Cochran ruling, California employers that require employees to use
their personal devices to conduct business as a condition of employment will need to initiate reimbursement plans or face litigation risk. Section 2802 of the California Labor Code requires employers to reimburse
employees for expenses “necessarily incurred” with the stated purpose of “prevent[ing] employers from passing their operating expenses on to their employees.” I know what you are thinking - you can have the employee waive the right to reimbursement. Wrong! California Labor Code section 2804 prohibits waivers of an employee’s rights to reimbursement. The overall theory behind the decision was reflected in the California Supreme Court’s decision in Gattuso v. Harte-Hanks Shoppers, Inc., 42 Cal. 4th 554 (2007), the Court noted that the purpose of section 2802 is to “prevent employers from passing their operating expenses on to their employees.” Most importantly, if your business is exposed to and loses such a lawsuit this can have far reaching and expensive consequences, considering that section 2802 allows employees to recover attorney fees incurred in “enforcing the rights granted by” that section. It is highly likely that the attorney fees incurred will surpass the cost or providing a company phone or paying for a portion of the employees cell phone. If you have a employees that must utilize mobile devices that are not provided by the company, it would be highly advisable to meet with and discuss your policies and procedures with a attorney in order to develop a policy that both allows the employee to effectively perform their job and protect the employer from sitting in the courthouse.

Crime Children Stalked and Assaulted in Menifee By C.J. Leger
A terrible experience befell two children from Menifee when, a 19-yearold man lured them into a home and assaulted them. The children were siblings, a 12-year-old girl and her younger brother, 10. Michael Orrantia, a resident of Menifee, was recently arrested and booked on the suspicion of burglary, sexual assault on a child, and false imprisonment in direct association with the allegations the children made to authorities. He has since been charged and held on a $1 million bail. According to reports, both

children were walking along the street when Orrantia followed them as they were walking into a residence to feed a neighbor’s cat. The children reported that once inside, he proceeded to assault them. The younger brother was able to escape the perilous situation and seek help by notifying a parent, however, by the time authorities were called, the suspect had already fled. Police arrived at the 29000 block of Camino Cristal and search for the suspect. They later found him just a few blocks away from where the incident transpired. Neighbors stated that Orrantia was a known resident of the area, living just around the corner from the children. One neighbor stated that Orrantia was often seen under the influence of drugs and alcohol. The names of the children have not been revealed, and parents are asking that their last names also be omitted from the news reports. However, the parents did come forward and spoke to CBS Los Angeles using just their first names. Angel, the children's mother, stated that she was the first to

Archibald's Marks 15 Years In Business Owner Andy Sehremelis, who has five Archibald's restaurants In Southern California as well as several other unrelated business endeavors. opened the first Archibald's In Ontario on Jan.19, 2000. Not much has changed since thenthe eatery specializes in just about everything, with a large menu featuring burgers, of course, plus breakfast all day and sandwiches, salads and much more. With a background working In his family's fast-food restaurants from a young age, Sehremelis said making his own way in the industry was something he knew he could do and do well. "My 80-year-old father, George came from Greece when he was 15; he started working in restaurants until he had enough money to open his own, "Sehremlis explained."When I was 6 years old, I remember Mom picking me up and taking me to the restaurant to help out." Even today, Sehremelis's father remains hard at work In the fast-food Industry. The Greek Immigrant owns Golden Burger at 2301 E. Fourth St In Long Beach. Sehremells said he originally planned to open a burger joint as a franchisee, but changed his mind and started something fresh. Today he said he's glad he decided to run with his own growing business concept. "I was going to open a Burger King but decided instead to start my own burger place" he said about the first Archibald's in Ontario."I named it after the street it was on: Archibald Avenue." His business on Second Street took over a space formerly occupied by a Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant, and Is the smallest of the Archiba-
ld's locations. The others have larger dining rooms, with private party rooms and drive-thru windows; the other restaurants also sell beer and wine. There's a large emphasis on all types of sports decor at his other restaurants, too, since Sehremelis is a passionate fan. The restaurateur, wbo is a father of three, said he would love to open another Archibald's In Long Beach or expand his Second Street shop someday, but for now he is focused on franchising the restaurant and opening five to 10 other Archibald's locations In the next decade. Archibald's Marketing Director Bill Fenlse, whose brother also works for the company, said the Second Street location survived the reces-
sion and is being discovered by more new customers every day. He said it's an especially popular spot for college students who want a bite to eat after bar crawling along the thoroughfare. A popular menu item is the "DUI Fries" which he said translates to "dining under the influence fries." "They're are still folks who live and work around here who ask me where Archibald's is when I talk to them - they don't always see us or think of us down here at the end of the street," Ferrise said."But once they try us, we have customer's for life. They come here and get hooked. Ferrlse said new customers at Archibald's should try the most popular
dishes such as the Monster Burger (with bacon, avocado, cheese, lettuce and pickles) with fresh cut fries, fried zucchini or onion rings. Sehremelis favorite menu items are the Breakfast Burrito (stuffed with scrambled eggs, cheese, hash browns and, a choice of bacon, sausage, ham or carne asada) and the Greek Salad. "Ninety-five percent of what we have here Is made on the premises," Sehremelis said."We don't compromise on quality.' Archibald's, 4600 E. Second St., Is open from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. Sundays through Wednesdays and from 7 a.m. to 3am. Thursdays through Saturdays. For details, call (562} 434-0444.
