Can the Washington Nurses Applaud SLO Lavender Video Go Too Far? Wizards Win the NBA Title? Board of Supervisors' Vote

to Uphold Rejection of Phillips 66 Oil Train Project

Controversial launches of performer’s videos ALWAYS increase views and album sales. In Snoop’s new video entitled “Lavender,” a character named “Ronald Klump,” a satirical Donald Trump stand-in, is the victim of a Looney Tunes-ian “BANG,” fired by Snoop Dogg.

The video, remixed by Kaytranada and newly bedrocked by verses from Snoop Dogg, was released Monday, and since then, the GOP health care bill and Trump’s tax returns have dominated the national conversation. Nevertheless, Trump took time this morning to respond to the video:

Trump’s personal lawyer Michael Cohen also responded to the music video, telling TMZ that “it’s totally disgraceful. Snoop owes the president an apology.”

Jail time seems unlikely, given the First Amendment protections afforded satire and parody. As the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press explains: “ ... subjects of even the most biting satire or criticism cannot successfully sue unless the irreverent comments contain a provably false fact.” SNOOP DOGG, See page 12A

By Perry Green and Stephen D. Riley (AFRO, NNPA Member) A few weeks ago, the AFRO Sports Desk debated if the Washington Wizards were built to be contenders for a deep playoff run. But after an impressive week that saw the Wizards start a five-game road trip out west by winning their first four games, it might be time to recalculate Washington’s chances at winning the whole thing. The Wizards have been on fire lately and, at press time, are only two-and-a-half games away from first place in the Eastern Conference. The team is playing arguably

The California Nurses Association/National Nurses United welcomed the San Luis Obispo County Board of Supervisors vote to uphold the Planning Commission's rejection of a controversial proposal by Phillip 66 to transport millions of gallons of crude tar sands oil through the county by rail every week.

“This community has sent a decisive message to Phillips 66 that we strongly oppose this proposal. These oil trains are a danger to this community, and we ask Phillips 66 to respect the wishes of the people here, and not appeal this decision any further," said Sydnee Raphael, RN, French Hospital.

"As registered nurses, our focus is on preventing

the adverse health risks, and dangers that these oil trains would pose. These range from the risk of derailment and explosion, to the degradation of local air quality and the climate as a whole, from the processing and use of the tar sands crude that these trains would carry through our communities, if the fossil fuel companies had their way," said Sierra Vista RN, Sherri Stoddard, a member of the California Nurses Association Board of Directors.

“This is a victory for all residents of San Luis Obispo County, particularly seniors and those with respiratory or other illnesses," said Joan Silva, an RN at French Hospital, and a resident of Atascadero.

Voices and View Points Prayer Breaking Unhealthy Soul Ties Words to Live by

Dr. Lonnie G. McCowan, pastor of Miracle Center of Ventura

By Pastor Lonnie G. McCowan What is that heavy feeling that makes us feel uncomfortable? It is called the human “soul.” Every person needs to have a Soul Cleansing. Soul Cleansing is about becoming free from manipulation, domination and control that others have over you through the ungodly, unsafe attachment of soul ties.

The soul gives a person the mental ability to make decisions including the power of judgment, discernment, discretion, insight, foresight, conviction, belief and faith.

The soul endows a person with the ability to think and apply knowledge via the intellect, understanding, creativity, sensibility, wisdom, and what some have come to call, intuition.

The soul is the intelligence, conscience, and reason; it houses the mind, will and emotions of an individual. The soul is contained within a physical body that God created from the dust of the earth—a body created from the earth to inter-

act with and function in the physical realm. With the aid of five physical senses, the body enables us humans to be conscious of the world around us giving us the ability to discern Earthly things. In the same way the spirit of man was created to reflect the image and likeness of God, making him God-conscious, and giving him the ability to interact with and discern spiritual things. So while the body is temporal and earth-bound, the spirit is eternal and Heaven-bound. This allows us to function in two worlds.

Two types of existence— the Earthly and the Heavenly—come together in the human soul. The great battles taking place between the kingdoms of Heaven and Earth—between the kingdom of darkness and the Kingdom of Light—are for the souls of humanity. There are five parts to the human soul, mind, will, emotions, intellect and memories. These battles not only rage in our souls, but for our souls.

Each year I lead our church at the Miracle Center in a Soul Cleansing service. There are many benefits of Soul Cleansing.

It releases negative thoughts, cleanses the subconscious mind, calms the conscious mind, removes attachments and fragments from demonic attachments, etc., that have entered our soul throughout the year. Our souls are Paid Advertisement

like sponges; they soak up everything that comes in contact with it.

Soul Cleansing sometimes is a must, before a person can move forward with their life. So cleansing is not about focusing on the past it’s about being released from the past.

The colossus amount of negative things that can be attached to ones soul is huge. Attaching spirits, of unseen forces bombard the soul on a daily basis are very real.

The soul’s defenses are capable of dealing with most of these problems, but for the most part, it is only a matter of time before the soul structure itself is damaged because so many attacks and attachments have connected to the soul over a period of time.

Are soul was created to hear the good, the pure, the kind tones, however we almost never hear pure tones. Every day through our negative thoughts and words, demonic and noxious forces bombard our soul on a daily basis. This creates a negative soul tie in which another force other than our own begins to manipulate, dominate and control us through our own emotions. Hindering our dreams, decision making, health, love, peace, joy and eventually our destiny!

Prayer Breaking Soul Ties: Lord, I confess I have practiced sin that has opened the door to a negative soul tie SOUL, See page 12A

Garcia continued: “They have criminalized immigrants. I have heard horrific and horrible stories. If you commit a crime or if you’re just suspected of that, you can be deported. The administration wants to reduce the number of immigrants in this country and we’re simply not going to stand for it. We’re not going to abandon this country.

The solution is to fight.”

Immigrant communities are caught up in the maelstrom, reeling from the steady assault from the president and certain administration officials who have relentlessly disparaged all immigrants, documented and undocumented, and who have now put that animus into public policy.

President Donald Trump described the crackdown on immigrants as a “military operation.” Two memos in the executive order broadened the parameters of the Obama administration provisions that allowed for the arrest and deportation of immigrants convicted of serious crimes, who had crossed the border into the U.S. recently and were considered threats to national security.

What is often forgotten, a New York University professor and longtime Harlem resident said, is that words written on a piece of paper deeply affect human beings who have experienced dislocation and are often entangled in a lifelong struggle to belong.

“I live in Harlem on a street that has become known as ‘Little Senegal,’” said the Jamaican professor, who spoke under con-

dition of anonymity in the interest of protecting family members who are undocumented. “I came here as a grad student. There used to be burned out buildings.

These Sub-Saharan residents shifted the community to one that is now very chichi’ with Starbucks, and all that stuff.”

The professor continued: “They are facing so much anxiety. I hear them in the hallways. They talk about it constantly. It’s fear like you’ve never seen before. People are afraid to go to the hospital, and when they do, sick sometimes close to death, they beg the nurses not to say anything.”

The professor, who is also an artist and author, said that ICE agents in New York City have also picked up Jamaicans and other Caribbean people, Sub Saharan Africans, Latinos and others, stopping the dollar cabs and checking the papers of Black and brown people who happened to be caught up in the immigration spot checks. In the aftermath of the raids, the streets are noticeably absent of the usual throngs of people going to and fro.

“It hits home so much.

It’s very sad,” the professor said softly. “These people on my block don’t really bother anybody. Talk about hardworking. They transformed all these burnt out buildings, opened restaurants and textile stores; then the developers came in and rebuilt. These are the sort of people Donald Trump is going to run out of town.

Trump Administration Targets Immigrants

By Barrington M. Salmon (NNPA Newswire Contributor) In recent weeks, squads of officers from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) have descended on communities from the suburbs of Langley Park, Maryland, and Austin, Texas to the city streets of Brooklyn and Queens, New York and Los Angeles, California.

Armed with new powers, ICE agents swept into the homes, living spaces and workplaces of undocumented immigrants, stopped them at roadblocks and checkpoints and unceremoniously remanded men, women and young people to jail cells.

The Trump Administration released two memos, recently, that strengthen ICE powers, igniting fears that the administration would ratchet up efforts to detain and deport undocumented immigrants, even those who’ve committed no crimes.

Franklin Garcia, a Washington, D.C. shadow representative, said that he’s never seen or experienced what’s playing out in the various local immigrant communities he represents.

“The two new memos have everyone anxious.

No one is secure,” said Garcia, a longtime activist and former president of the D.C. Latino Caucus. “I came here in 1980 and I’ve never seen anything like this. People are saying they don’t know if they should go to work. Children are scared that they’ll come home from school and their parents will be gone.”

Versions of the Truth The Mind Matters

By Patricia Lynn Belkowitz, C.Ht., EFT-CC When was the last time you told a “white lie”? Who did you lie to? What would have happened if you had told the truth? We all tell lies.

“White” lies and “black” lies. A lie is an untrue statement made with the intention to deceive or create a false impression. It misleads you.

A “white” lie is considered to be a lie with “good” intentions. But it is still a lie. In the movie, “Something’s Gotta Give”, after catching the man she loves with another woman, the character is confronted by the man. He says, “I have never lied to you, I have always told you some version of the truth.” She replies, “The truth doesn’t have versions, okay?” Unfortunately, we all have our own unique version of reality and sometimes truth gets confusing.

As beings, we are always trying to look good both to ourselves and to the outside world. “It’s tied in with selfesteem,” says University of Massachusetts psychologist Robert Feldman. “We find that as soon as people feel that their self-esteem is threatened, they immediately begin to lie at higher levels”. He goes on to say, “We’re trying not so much to impress other people but to maintain a view of ourselves that is consistent with the way they would like us to be”. We generally want to be agreeable and to make social situations easy. We want to avoid insulting others by being disagreeable.

Many animals engage in deception or deliberately mislead another. But only the human animal is wired to deceive ourselves as well as others. Feldman’s research shows that people

Patricia Lynn Belkowitz, C.Ht., EFT-CC

are so engaged in managing how others perceive them that they are often unable to separate truth from fiction in their own minds. Men lie no more than women, but they tend to lie to make themselves look better. Women are more likely to lie to make the other person feel better. We all start lying at around age 4 to 5 when we gain an awareness of the use TRUTH, See page 12A

A Practical Solution To Bring Down The Cost Of Health Care

The 2015 Long-Term Budget Outlook, released in June 2016, says that the US debt has increased, primarily through larger federal spending. The report says that medical costs associated with the aging population will continue to rise, with the resultant debt potentially crippling our economic growth.

What if everyone had a new kind of fun challenge in life? What if everyone were given the option to EDUCATE themselves concerning their real and potential health issues along with easy-to-implement ways to prevent serious, chronic diseases and reduce or eliminate existing ones?

The government has provided medical information services such as PubMed. There are also organizations like the Cleveland Clinic that provide various kinds of free medical information services.

However, no existing organization, provides a free service designed to provide

accurate self-diagnosis and self-treatment for a wide range of health issues, especially those associated with advancing age. This service can be created and made available to the public, with at least medical assistant “guides” to walk a person through the process.

This program could be implemented in one state, refined, then implemented by several more states until every state has the program. The payoff would be reducing pain, suffering,

Covered CA Releases Analysis of an Early Look at Consumer Impact of Changes Proposed in the American Health Care Act

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Covered California released a new comprehensive analysis on Tuesday detailing the financial assistance available through the Affordable Care Act as well as a preliminary analysis of how changes proposed in federal law would affect enrollees.

The studies come one day after the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) reported that 24 million consumers could lose coverage under the proposed American Health Care Act (AHCA), which was introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives on March 6.

“We are deeply troubled by the CBO’s finding that the amount of support provided for consumers to buy health insurance in 2020 under proposed legislation would be only 60 percent of what is provided under current law,” said Covered Cali-

fornia Executive Director Peter V. Lee. “While we are still doing an analysis of the aggregate effects of this law on our consumers, the likely effect of basing subsidies on age alone — rather than considering income and where an individual lives — is that it will make coverage unaffordable and in many cases, put coverage out of reach.”

Covered California released two documents on Tuesday: “Bringing Health Care Coverage Within

Reach,” an in-depth analysis of Covered California enrollees and the subsidies they receive in 2016; and “Preliminary Analysis of Impacts to Consumers from Changes in Premium Subsidies and Cost Sharing Reductions Available Under the Proposed American Health Care Act.” The first analysis shows Covered California households received an average of $5,300 per year in tax credits to help pay for the cost of their coverage in 2016. Additionally, 12 percent of Covered California households receive more than $10,000 per year and 16 percent of individuals receive more than $6,000 per year to help bring health care coverage within reach.

Approximately half of Covered California consumers are enrolled in “Enhanced Silver” plans, which give them COVERED CA, See page 12A

Rep. Bass Rips New Health Proposal Assemblymember Rocky Chávez Announces 2017 Woman of the Year

Washington, DC – Rep. Karen Bass (D-Calif.) issued the following statement in response to the House Republican plan to repeal the Affordable Care Act. “46 days into Donald Trump's presidency and seven years after the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, House Republicans have finally delivered their plan of attack: less coverage at a higher cost.

“The new health care plan will cause at least 11 million to lose their health coverage. Not only does it defund Planned Parenthood, end Medicaid expansion, and repeal subsidies

Rep. Karen Bass

for out-of-pocket expenses, it also comes complete with a roll back of taxes for the wealthiest among us.

What’s most hypocritical about the whole process is that Republicans are rushing this bill out of committee without waiting for the Congressional Budget Office to give a final estimate of how much final passage will cost.

“The uninsured rate in the 37th district has gone from 22.1% to 12.7% since the Affordable Care Act was implemented. The priority of Congress should be to enhance the ACA and build on the progress of the last 7 years, not to destroy it.”

Assembly Bill 279 extends authority to DDS and regional centers to adjust the rates of providers to comply with locally mandated minimum wage laws enacted in the jurisdiction in which they employ workers to meet service needs under the Lanterman Developmental Disabilities Act. "The simple fact is that when the state raised the minimum wage, it recognized a responsibility to provide a mechanism and funding to adjust rates that are impacted, and my bill simply extends that recognition to local ordinances raising the minimum wage at a different pace than the state." said Holden.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- State Treasurer John Chiang announced the sale of $2.79 billion in state of California general obligation bonds to pay for a variety of projects, including safe drinking water, housing and educational facilities.

New borrowing accounted for $513.2 million, while refunding of existing bonds at lower interest rates totaled $2.279 billion.

The refunding created about $295 million in present value savings to taxpayers and $406 million in debt service nominal savings over the remaining lives of the bonds.

This most recent sale pushed the total savings to the general public, including taxpayers, from bond refunding of approximately $5 billion since Treasurer Chiang took office in January 2015. That is the equivalent to the annual tuition cost of approximately 400,000 University of Cal-

Assemblymember Holden's Treasurer Sells $2.79 Billion in Bonds Bill to Address Minimum Wage Passes First Committee

Sacramento, CA - Assemblymember Chris Holden's legislation to address the minimum wage discrepancy for developmental disabilities service providers, Assembly Bill 279, passed the Assembly Committee for Human Services today with a 6-0 vote. Specifically, Assembly Bill 279 extends authority to the Department of Developmental Services (DDS) and regional centers to adjust the rates of providers to comply with legally binding local mandates and minimum wage levels across the state.

"Without an increase to reimbursement rates to meet local mandates, many developmental disability service providers may have to shut their doors," said Assemblymember Chris

The statewide minimum wage statues enacted from Senate Bill 3 in 2016 did not recognize that a number of municipalities and counties have enacted minimum wage ordinances mandating

The overall true interest cost was 3.56 percent, with yields ranging from 0.6 percent for the 2017 bonds to 3.9 percent for the 2046 bonds.

The sale is a success particularly given uncertainty

over interest rate hikes and their impact on the bond market.

“This demonstrates that despite the recent run-up in interest rates, we still can diligently work to save taxpayer money and build infrastructure that California badly needs,” said Chiang.

The bonds were rated “Aa3” by Moody’s Investor services, “AA-“ by Standard & Poor’s and “AA-“ by Fitch Ratings.

They are backed by the state of California’s full faith and credit.

Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC were joint senior managers for underwriting with Siebert Cisneros Shank & Co. LLC and U.S. Bancorp Investments, Inc. serving as co-senior managers.

Former Mayor Chris Brown Gets Cannabis Companies to Commit Millions to Fight Veteran Homelessness

Former California mayor Chris Brown is working on an initiative to drastically end veteran homelessness in California.

A 2014 report estimated that veterans make up over 8% of the total homeless population. Chris, now working as a cannabis consultant and VP for the GreenPoint Group, as well as Chief Political Officer of the Foxx Firmhas gotten some of his clients to commit to his homelessness initiative called Houz Vets.

Houz Vets will provide 240 veterans a traditional housing complex built out of shipping containers. Chris already has a commitment of $2.1 million dollars during Q4 of this year! When asked why he is working on this initiative, in particular by calling on his cannabis clients he said “the cannabis industry seeks to do good.”

Though a certain portion of cannabis taxes can be used to support non-profit endeavors, it has not been easy for cannabis businesses to give back. However, the former mayor already has a commitment from several cannabis companies to commit to housing veterans.

Hab Haddad, CEO of GreenPoint had this to say “GreenPoint is proud of what Houz Vets is doing and is committed to financially support their initiatives for years to come.

There is no greater honor than to serve your country. The great service men

Former California mayor Chris Brown

and women of this nation need our help. They have risked their lives and left their families to protect our freedom and civil liberties.

Houz Vets is helping provide a home and a solid foundation for prosperity for our veterans. The Houz Vets program is innovative, practical, economical and a timely answer to our homelessness problems in so many municipalities.

GreenPoint is committed to working with Houz Vets to solve this problem.”

Councilman Jawane Hilton is also a huge supporter of Houz Vets and feels the model will be “effective and efficient.” Hilton also noted that he’s had friends and neighbors that served in the military, “they come back with PTSD and they’re left out on their own. I think with Houz Vets it’s an amazing opportunity!”

New York, NY — Young minority teens from California to Connecticut are vying for one of 50 spots in the At the Well Young Women’s Leadership Academy. Students wanting to experience the black and brown girl magic that occurs each summer during the program are fiercely applying to meet the March 31 deadline. The summer enrichment program for 10th and 11th grade minority female students is in its seventh straight year on the campus of Princeton University. Due to demand, in 2016, the Academy expanded to include a session at Swarthmore College in Swarthmore, PA. A Weekend Intensive mini program is held for students in the ninth grade on the campus of Princeton University.

The Academy focuses

on developing strong leaders through academic, social and career components.

Girls participate in peer tutoring and small group projects that build lasting bonds.

While living in the campus dorm rooms, there are ample opportunities to create meaningful relationships.

Students are treated to speakers from across industries including entertainers who are a highlight of the program. Actors including Brian White, Boris Kodjoe, Nicole Ari Parker, Jasmine Guy, and Yandy Smith have provided a healthy dose of motivation. Workshop facilitators include role models from the medical, legal, and non-profit fields and have featured Dr. Michele Reed, QVC Inventor Lisa Ascolese, and Madame C. J. Walker’s great-great-grand-

By Benjamin P. Hardy In the book, Immunity to Change, psychologists Robert Kegan and Lisa Lahey explain various stages in conscious development.

A person with a “socializedmind” is dependent on others, and does best when directly told what to do. Their behaviors are calculated out of fear based on what they think others want them to do.

A “socialized” mindset, which reflects the lowest stages of conscious development, was exactly what was needed to succeed in an industrial model of work.

However, as Kegan and Lahey explain, the world doesn’t need obedient and compliant factory workers anymore. Rather, the world, and every organization, needs people to raise their conscious awareness.

Rather than being “socialized,” the world needs “selfauthoring” individuals who are independent thinkers who take responsibility over their own work and lives.

People at this stage of development trust themselves enough to make mistakes, they take initiative, and they are self-directed learners.

So with this backdrop, we can now examine why C students are generally better off than their A and B counterparts.

1. They question the validity of the academic system C students are not sold on the academic system.

They’re not sold on the factory approach. They see a great deal of good that comes from it, but they

don’t worship the system.

They see its many flaws.

Furthermore, they know that learning can occur in different ways than the system presents, and that learning can happen entirely outside of the system. Thus, academia is only one approach to learning for C students.

2. They are not submissive followers C students think for themselves. They don’t walk between the lines without first questioning why those lines exist. Rather than having someone else tell them how to live their lives, C students come up with their own agendas. They zig when everyone else zags.

3. They are not trying to please and impress their superiors C students don’t spend enormous amounts of energy trying to impress their superiors. They respect and love their teachers, but they don’t worship them and obey their every request.

They don’t see their teachers the guardians of their success. They don’t depend on references or resumés anymore. They realize that

in today’s world, their work speaks for itself — it’s online for everyone to see.

4. They have bigger things to worry about Ironically, if you’re obsessed with your grades, you’re not thinking enough about your future. People who get C’s are more strategic about how they spend their time. While their classmates are putting tons of energy into an arbitrary indicator, C students are actually pursuing their dreams. They aren’t waiting until after school to start living.

5. They have their own definition of success A and B students seek security externally in the form of “good grades.”

However, C students know that security can only really be experienced internally.

They know who they are.

No external standard of success will ever compare to their own self-awareness and acceptance — they’ve defined success for themselves. They don’t care what the masses are competing for, C students chart their own paths.

Marshall to Giants could be big win for both sides Brandon Marshall

By Ralph Vacchiano INDIANAPOLIS - In a perfect (and uncapped) world, Brandon Marshall would make perfect sense for the Giants. He's the big receiver they've needed for years, a potential mentor for the young and turbulent Odell Beckham, and with a personality that proved to be a good fit for New York.

And while the Giants' salary cap situation could make it complicated, now that Mar-

shall is an ex-Jet, a move to the other locker room at the Meadowlands makes too much sense for the Giants not to at least try.

Begin with the football aspect of it. The Giants are in need of an outside receiver after cutting Victor Cruz, who was a bad fit on the outside anyway. They need one accomplished and dangerous enough to take some pressure off Beckham. And they need one with size, since the book on quarterback Eli Manning since his college days has always been that when he misses his target, more often than not he misses high.

Just remember how successful Manning was in his best years, throwing to the 6-3 Amani Toomer and the 6-5 Plaxico Burress. Manning was (and to an extent still is) an expert at throwing passes, especially along the sidelines, where only his receivers can reach them. Add in a tall receiver with long arms - something the Giants really haven't had since Burress left -- and there's seemingly a recipe for instant success.

Now, the 36-year-old Manning isn't the same player he was back then, and neither is the soon-to-be-33 Marshall. But Marshall is still 6-4, 230 and he's only one year removed from a 109-catch, 1,502-yard, 14-touchdown season - which, by the way, was accomplished with Ryan Fitzpatrick at quarterback. Even last season Marshall caught 59 passes for 788 yards while battling injuries and catching passes from a literal mess of Jets quarterbacks.

There's no reason why he can't do much better with Beckham and Sterling Shepard drawing coverage and Manning throwing the ball.

Of course, Marshall does come with issues. For one, he'll likely want to continue his high-profile job with Showtime - which could be difficult since "Inside the NFL" tapes on Tuesdays, and that's a work day on the Giants' schedule now. If it can be arranged, though, the Giants would likely let him do it as long as it doesn't conflict with his work schedule. After all, as Ben McAdoo proved during the playoffs last season, he's pretty lenient and understanding about with what his players do on their own time.

Reporter interviews man on the street, Jahlil Okafor tries to explain, defend his “defense” from viral video has no idea it's NFL star Adrian Peterson

By Kurt Helin Maybe Jahlil Okafor should call James Harden up for advice on how to handle this.

The Sixers big man became the focus of a viral video showing off his “defense” and poor effort the other night against Miami.

The next day, Okafor tried to defend himself, as told to CSNPhilly.com.

His main argument was that he does care about defense, he was just tired.

“I know about the clip that everybody’s been talking about,” Okafor said.

“The persona of me not caring defensively is false.

I took it upon myself to talk to our defensive coach Lloyd Pierce to ask about that individual clip. He said that I did the defen-

Jahlil Okafor

sive concepts and that was to retreat, retreat, retreat.

“And I understand visually it looks bad. I was fatigued. I played the entire first quarter and I was tired.

I’m not making excuses. …

I did do what I was supposed to do and that’s retreat. We had an amazing roller in

Hassan Whiteside so my job was to not let [Dragic or Whiteside] behind me. Of course [McGruder] runs in to get the offensive rebound and I’m [accountable] for that, too. That’s my fault, supposedly. That’s what everyone’s trying to make it out to be. The coaches are happy with the way I’ve been improving and every day I continue to work.”

There’s a difference between retreating to protect the rim and passivity. Fatigue very likely played a factor, but Okafor is simply not a good defender. That’s one of the reasons the trade market for him has been so limited.

That he cares and is putting in work with the coaches on his defense is a positive sign.

There’s just a long way to go.

By Frank Schwab Houston Fox 26 reporter John Donnelly was doing a normal story on how to stay safe in a road rage incident, talking to people on the street. You’ve seen these types of TV news stories before; they’re fairly common.

What was unusual here is that the man on the street Donnelly interviewed happened to be future Pro Football Hall of Famer Adrian Peterson … and Donnelly had no idea.

The story comes via TVNewsStoryTellers.com, and it’s awesome. At the end of the interview, Donnelly asks the guy he’s been talking to about road rage his name, like he would with anyone else,

Adrian Peterson

and the subject says “Adrian Peterson.”

“Wait a minute, you’re not … ” Donnelly said.

“Yeah,” Peterson says after a brief, awkward pause.

That’s just amazing.

The flip side of the story is funny too. Peterson must have figured he was being stopped to talk about his NFL future – he became a free agent on March 9, after the Minnesota Vi-

kings made big news by announcing they won’t pick up his 2017 option – or whatever else a reporter would ask of Peterson if he saw him on the street.

It must have been nice for Peterson to be treated for a minute like John Smith from Katy, Texas, just talking about how to handle a road rage situation.

Donnelly had fun with the video, posting on Facebook, “Here I am interviewing people on the street and not realizing I’d stopped a celebrity. Enjoy the awkwardness!” He and Peterson took a picture together after he figured out this was Adrian Peterson.

The Peterson video now ranks No. 2 in “didn’t realize it was an NFL player during a man on the street interview” history, behind “Hopeful Powerball player” Chris Long.

Eric Young Jr. opens up to Angels teammates Eric Young Jr.

By Pedro Moura On Jan. 24, Eric Young Jr. agreed to a minor league contract with the Angels to compete for a spot on their bench. On Jan. 26, he and his wife of four years, Victoria, welcomed their first child, Eric Young III, into the world, three months premature, too much so to survive. They held their baby boy in their hands for one night before he died.

At Angels camp four weeks later, Young stood in the middle of the Tempe Diablo Stadium clubhouse and relayed his family’s story of hardship. Please, he told his new teammates, do not be afraid to talk to me, about this or about anything.

“He knows that generally in those types of circumstances, teammates, coaches,

front office and support staff generally try to give guys space,” General Manager Billy Eppler said. “E.Y. wanted to confront that.

That’s a very high-character, very admirable thing to do, and he spoke from the heart.”

Young said he was determined to be open about his grief to help untold others processing pain of all kinds.

“I’m trying to turn tragedy into triumph, and maybe inspire some people along the way who might be battling something just as devastating to them,” he said.

“I’m not scared of the situation. I don’t shy from it. It’s one of the cards that’s been dealt to me, and I’m going to play it the best I can.

“Hopefully, other people can work hard through just watching me.”

Congressman Tells Trump Racism Has No Place In Jury Why His Comments About

Black Communities Are ‘Hurtful’

Rep. Elijah Cummings

By Sam Levine Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.) said he told President Donald Trump in a meeting that the way he’s described African-American communities is “insulting.”

During the presidential campaign, Trump frequently painted a grim and inaccurate picture of black communities, saying they were in “the worst shape they’ve ever been in before.”

“Look how much African-American communities

are suffering under Democratic control. To those, I say the following: What do you have to lose by trying something new, like Trump?” Trump asked on the campaign trail in August.

“You’re living in poverty.

Your schools are no good.

You have no jobs. Fifty-eight percent of your youth is unemployed. What the hell do you have to lose?”

Cummings, a vocal Trump critic, told the Baltimore Sun he’d reminded

White Teen Calls Student ‘Black Piece Of S**t’ In Disturbing Video

By Taryn Finley A mother in Raleigh, North Carolina, is seeking justice for her 15-year-old son, who says he was the target of a white student’s continued racism and harassment at school. The teen’s story has gained nationwide attention after a video of his altercation with the white student Friday went viral.

Wake Forest High School sophomore Micah Speed is captured in an Instagram video, posted by a fellow student, pulling the white teen to the ground by his backpack. The white student gets up, calls Micah a “black piece of s**t” and walks away. Micah then pulled the student to the ground again. A female faculty member begins reprimanding Micah, warning him not to touch her or he’s in “big trouble,” and telling him the white student only “used words.”

Micah was suspended for 10 days. The other student wasn’t punished at the time.

What the video doesn’t show, however, is the alleged harassment that Micah said led him to his boiling point. Micah told ABC 11 that he endured two months of the student’s racial slurs and degrading comments before the two got into a physical altercation.

“He threw the N-word around very loosely, said things that I looked like I bathed in coffee beans and dirt,” Micah told the outlet.

He said that he reported the harassment to a teacher three times in the past.

Micah told WRAL that the day of the altercation,

Micah Speed

the student told him that he should “name [his] kids crack head and convict because that’s what they would grow up to be.” But the point that pushed him “over the edge” is when the student showed Micah a video of him shooting a gun and threatened to kill him and his family, he told CBS North Carolina.

Since the video of the altercation went viral, students have been rallying in support of Micah. Someone started a Change.org petition demanding the high school address the “bullying” and “blatant racism.” It’s gotten more than 16,000 signatures.

Students protested in the hallways of their school.

They chanted, “Bring Micah back.”

Micah’s suspension has been reduced to five days since his story gained traction. His mom, Yolanda Speed, told News & Observer that she was told that the administration decided to punish the white student at that time as well, but she wasn’t given any details. Speed believes the other student was punished because the video went viral.

the president how damaging those comments were, saying, “I want you to realize that all AfricanAmerican communities are not places of depression and where people are being harmed. When we hear those words about carnage and we are living in depressed situations, I told him it was very hurtful.”

In an interview with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer, Cummings said Trump had replied that he would change the language he used to describe black communities.

“He shook his head and said, ‘You got a point there, you’re absolutely right, I’m gonna change that language.’”

Cummings also told CNN that he had confronted Trump over his promised investigation of voter fraud, telling him that such fraud is nonexistent and urging him to investigate voter suppression instead.

The Maryland congressman and Trump met to talk about lowering prescription drug prices. Previously, Trump said he’d called Cummings to set up a meeting on the topic after hearing him speak about it on television, and complained that the lawmaker was avoiding him.

Cummings denied he had canceled any prior meeting with Trump, and told the Baltimore Sun that the meeting was productive. When the paper asked whether his feelings about the president had changed, Cummings replied, “We’ll see what happens.”

Deliberations, Supreme Court Finds

Justice Anthony Kennedy, second from left, said the Constitution empowers judges to question racially charged statements made by jurors during secret deliberations in a criminal case.

By Cristian Farias In a decision that should send ripples through the criminal justice system, the Supreme Court ruled that the Constitution empowers judges in criminal cases to scrutinize racist statements made by jurors during jury deliberations.

Such deliberations, held in secret and without the presence of judges, are largely shielded from court review under the “no impeachment” rule. The general principle behind it is that the jury system would suffer if judges were constantly second-guessing what jurors decide behind closed doors.

But in a 5-to-3 ruling, the Supreme Court looked at its precedents and found a constitutional exception to that rule whenever there is evidence that a juror exhibited racial bias in voting to convict a defendant.

“This Court’s decisions demonstrate that racial bias

implicates unique historical, constitutional, and institutional concerns,” Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote in his opinion, which conceded that the jury system is human and thus can be flawed. “An effort to address the most grave and serious statements of racial bias is not an effort to perfect the jury but to ensure that our legal system remains capable of coming ever closer to the promise of equal treatment under the law that is so central to a functioning democracy.”

The ruling ― joined

by Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan ― is highly readable and was replete with the kind of language Kennedy reserves for landmark rulings, such as those he has authored on gay marriage and affirmative action in higher education.

“It must become the heritage of our Nation to rise above

racial classifications that are so inconsistent with our commitment to the equal dignity of all persons,” Kennedy wrote.

The case arose after two Colorado jurors in the criminal trial of a Latino, Miguel Peña-Rodriguez, reported to his attorney that another juror had made “anti-Hispanic” comments during deliberations. The defendant had just been convicted of harassment and unlawful sexual contact with two teenage girls.

According to those jurors, the biased juror had expressed his belief that Peña-Rodriguez was guilty because “Mexican men had a bravado that caused them to believe they could do whatever they wanted with women” and that “he did it because he’s Mexican and Mexican men take whatever they want.” He had also referred to the defendant as “an illegal,” even though he was legally in the country.

Do You Know How to Save on Online Brokerage Fees?

By Nathaniel Sillin If you've made it to a point in life where you're ready to start investing, or at least start thinking about investing, you may consider opening a brokerage account. But you're not alone if the thought of choosing a brokerage firm is foreign to you.

While brokers have helped individual investors buy and sell investments for decades, the relationship and services have changed over time.

For instance, rather than calling their brokers, today many investors use a sleek online platform or mobile app to place orders.

Fees associated with maintaining a brokerage account and investing have also changed. Whether you've been investing for years, or are just diving in, it's wise to occasionally compare brokerage firms' offerings and costs, including those listed below, and find the option

that's right for you.

Trading-platform fees might not be necessary. A trading platform is downloadable software or an online app that you can use to make trades, view real-time quotes and news, perform analysis and set up your trading strategies. While platform fees can cost hundreds of dollars a month, many high-quality options are completely free. Others are free as long as you meet minimum account balance requirements.

Trading fees are common, but prices vary. Brokerage trading fees can vary widely depending on the financial product and broker.

Many online brokers charge a flat fee, typically somewhere between $5 to $10 per online trade for stocks or exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Some brokers alternatively charge a fee per share, which could be a bet-

ter option for day traders.

Making a trade over the phone or with the help of a broker rather than on your own online could incur an additional fee (sometimes between $20 to $50).

Mutual fund transaction fees may be higher than the cost of trading stocks, although some brokers have a list of no-transaction-fee funds. More advanced trading tactics, such as options, also may have additional fees.

Higher trading fees don't necessarily indicate better service, but the fees could help the brokerage firm invest in its trading platform, customer service and research tools.

Therefore, you'll want to compare each firm as a whole, not just the trading fees.

Three Steps To Saving For Your Dream Home

By Damien Justus According to Harvard University’s “State of the Nation’s Housing” report, while more people than ever before want to own their own home, fewer feel financially ready to do so yet.

Reasons range from high rents to student loan debt.

Millennials, in particular, are waiting longer to get married, start families and purchase their first home.

But this is not necessarily bad news for the housing market. In fact, it could mean that the millennial generation has something to teach us all about saving consistently towards a big life goal such as owning your own home!

Step 1: Pay down your debt to clean up your credit.

Your credit score is a tricky business when it comes to saving for your first home. You have no history of carrying a mortgage, so you can’t make any real impact there. What you can do is to clean up your overall credit report so your general credit score is as healthy as possible before you apply for your mortgage loan.

Step 2: Separate and automate your savings.

Saving money is never going to be the easiest goal you attempt. In fact, according to The Atlantic, one of the chief reasons that nearly half of all Americans have little or no emergency savings to fall back on is taking on too much mortgage debt.

So here is a clear area where you should proceed with caution. First, save.

Then, buy a home. The best approach to make saving as painless as possible for you is to automate your savings.

You can do this by setting up direct deposit on your paycheck and then regular auto-drafts into a savings account reserved just for

dream home savings. This way, you never even touch those funds and feel tempted to spend them instead.

Step 3: Downsize to upsize.

Finally, one effective change many adults today are making to save more towards their dream home is to downsize while they save. This can mean anything from moving to a smaller apartment to getting rid of your cable television subscription. Also, you must continually remind yourself why you have downsized in order for this step to work well. But the key to making downsizing work to serve your greater goals is to make sure you deposit every cent of what you save into your dream home fund.

Yahoo Inc, which disclosed two massive data breaches last year, said that about 32 million user accounts were accessed by intruders in the last two years using forged cookies.

The company said some of the latest intrusions can be connected to the “same state-sponsored actor believed to be responsible for the 2014 breach”, in which at least 500 million accounts were affected.

“Based on the investigation, we believe an unauthorized third party accessed the company’s proprietary code to learn how to forge certain cookies,” Yahoo said in its latest annual filing.

These cookies have been invalidated so they cannot be used to access user accounts, the company said.

Forged cookies allow an intruder to access a user’s

account without a password.

Yahoo also said in December that data from more than 1 billion user accounts was compromised in August 2013, making it the largest breach in history.

The company said that it would not award Chief Executive Marissa Mayer a cash bonus for 2016, following the independent committee’s findings related to the

2014 security incident.

Mayer has also offered to forgo any 2017 annual equity award as the breaches occurred during her tenure, Yahoo said.

Last month, Verizon Communications Inc., which is in the process of buying Yahoo’s core assets, lowered its original offer by $350 million to $4.48 billion.

By Adriana A. Retif For the third year, and as part of its Technology Transfer Program, NASA is releasing its annual software catalogue, available to everyone and completely free. A bunch of them are only just being released to the public, so it’s your time to snag it and feel like a badass movie scientist.

Software plays a huge part in NASA’s mission and research successes.

“Software has been a critical component of each of NASA’s mission successes and scientific discoveries.

In fact, more than 30 percent of all reported NASA innovations are software,” said Dan Lockney, NASA’s Technology Transfer program executive. “We’re pleased to transfer these tools to other sectors and excited at the prospect of seeing them implemented in new and creative ways.”

Of course, most of the available downloads are related to topics that are per-

haps of no real use for you (unless you’re launching satellites from your rooftops), like rocket science and propulsion, but there’s health monitoring, environmental science software, and data processing tools.

With 15 different categories, ranging from Design and Integration to Climate Simulators, there’s plenty of browsing material for you to check out at your leisure, but NASA kindly compiled a Top 20 most requested software titles for you to start your software download journey.

Though the catalogue has various levels of access restrictions, there’s open source

material that you’ll easily be able to download directly, but you’ll have to create an account in order to access others.

“The software catalog is our way of supporting the innovation economy by granting access to tools used by today’s top aerospace professionals to entrepreneurs, small businesses, academia and industry,” said Steve Jurczyk, associate administrator for NASA’s Space Technology Mission Directorate (STMD) in Washington. “Access to these software codes has the potential to generate tangible benefits that create American jobs, earn revenue and save lives.”

The Top State for Robotics Innovation?

Florida Will Surprise You

(NewsUSA) - Lifelike animatronics, next-generation "surgeons" and mechanical warfighters -- words that might create visions of a Sci-Fi blockbuster. However, these innovations in high-tech robotics are real and you need look no further than Florida to find them. The history between the state and robotics is a long one. Since the birth of IBM PC in Boca Raton in 1981, the "Second Machine Age" has been thriving in the Sunshine State.

Florida's robotics revolution covers a lot of ground, including mobility assistance and research, but a common theme found in the state's innovation reliance on technology that defies human capabilities, including in the life sciences. Seamless procedures on the spine, cancer cells and more have been enhanced by robotics at the Florida Hospital Global Robotics Institute and Mazor Robotics, both in Orlando. Similarly, Kissimmeebased Photon-X explores the science of photonics, such as fiber optics, in applications for robotics surgery.

According to Photon-X President and CEO Blair Barbour, "Medical robotics is the next generation of surgery. The technology is perfected to eliminate human error from procedures, making it possible to enhance surgeries and surgeon ca-

pabilities with better handeye coordination. Tests have proven that patients also heal faster through robotic surgery."

The Florida Institute for Human & Machine Cognition (IHMC) in Pensacola takes a different approach to defying human capabilities. By pairing scientists and robots to develop systems using complicated human thought process and versatile machines, IHMC develops systems that save lives in situations where help is needed but the risk is too great for human response, including in nuclear meltdown sites and space exploration.

To develop the groundbreaking technology that Florida has become known for, the world's most talented scientists are required, and the state has made it possible to attract and retain that tal-

ent. Says Julie Sheppard, general counsel of IHMC, "Being in Florida helps us with our recruitment. In addition to the exciting work, IHMC is able to hire top talent due to Florida's weather, our affordable housing and all the access to waterways for recreational purposes. We are especially appealing to scientists from cities with a higher cost of living because we offer our employees a more attractive lifestyle."

Homegrown talent is cultivated at colleges throughout the state, including the Tallahassee-based Center for Intelligent Systems, Control, and Robotics (CISCOR), a cooperative program between Florida A&M University and Florida State University. As one of the top schools in the country for development and implementation of robotics technology, CISCOR's students focus on studying mechanical design and human-robot interaction, including mobility in complex environments.

In addition, the Army has collaborated with students to develop automated motion planning, terrain classification and design and modeling of fourlegged robots.

Five Low-Impact Exercises for Joint Pain Asthma Is 6 Times More Lethal

For Black Children

By Jessica Theifels You’ve been active most of your life — running, cycling, playing tennis — but what if achy joint pain is making those activities you once loved too challenging? Well, luckily, joint pain doesn’t have to stop you from moving.

You simply need to adjust to the low-impact versions of exercises that support painful or weak joints while building muscle and improving heart health.

First, talk with your doctor to get the go-ahead to exercise. Then, try the following joint-friendly activities.

Who knows, you may even find your new, favorite go-to workout.

Rowing Machine You’ve probably seen this piece of equipment in the gym a hundred times but never used it. The rowing machine gives you a great low-impact cardio workout that also strengthens your whole body, from legs and core to upper back and arms.

Here’s a simple rowing workout to get you started: • 400 meters slow (This is your warm up) (3-5 minutes) • 200 meters, effort 4 out of 10 (exertion based on a 10-point scale, 1 being minimal) (45 seconds) • 400 meters, effort 6

out of 10 (90 seconds) • 200 meters, effort 8 out of 10 (45 seconds) • 400 meters, effort 2 out of 10 (This is your cool-down) (90 seconds) Gentle Yoga Yoga is an amazing way to rejuvenate your mind and body as you build strength and mental focus.

A gentle-yoga class will be kind to your joints while helping you to maintain flexibility and stability.

Most classes will be good for joint pain; the key is to avoid certain poses and movements that might put stress on your joints, especially your knees.

Ultimately, the yoga teacher will be your best guide for determining what is ideal for your aching joints. Speak with him before class and he’ll make sure to help you with modifications during the session.

TRX You may be familiar with the the black and yellow straps hanging in your gym. Often called suspension training, the classic TRX straps use gravity and a person’s body weight to help build strength while easing the load on weak or painful knee joints.

Starting with TRX can seem intimidating, so ask a

personal trainer to assist you with traditional exercises that involve pushing and pulling (think squats, lunges, pull-ups and push-ups).

Swimming If you know how to swim, get back into the pool! Swimming is similar to yoga in that the movements are relaxing as well as easy on your joints.

Luckily, many large gyms and community centers have a pool you can use year-round.

In addition to swimming, you can do aquatic training. With the added challenge of water resistance, you can build even more strength.

Elliptical Go to any gym and you’ll find a row of ellipticals. These machines let you simulate a walking, running or climbing motion, but with less strain on your joints.

Because you can vary the intensity from low to high, the elliptical can substitute for running or enable you to take your walking routine to the next level.

A 2011 study published in Gait Posture Journal found that elliptical training significantly reduced weight-bearing stress on joints compared with other physical activity, including running and walking on a treadmill or outside.

Welcome to the Slow Lane!

By Christina Ianzito People with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia can get a little anxious in a grocery checkout line — and who wouldn’t with a line of impatient shoppers muttering behind you.

A British supermarket chain, Tesco, has come up with a possible solution: a “relaxed” checkout line, where anyone who needs a little more time can pay up without being pressured to hurry up.

Tesco is testing the concept in a store in Scotland, with staff members trained

by Alzheimer’s experts to understand the particular challenges that come with dementia. But relaxed lanes also could be helpful to people with other impairments that might slow them down, whether an arm in a cast or a Parkinsonian tremor.

Alzheimer’s experts advocates applaud any effort that raises awareness and crushes misconceptions about the disease, which still carries a stigma despite the fact people in its early stages can be very high-functioning. In the U.S., 70 percent of people with dementia are living in and interacting within their communities, according to the Alzheimer’s Association.

Still, some advocates aren’t so sure that divert-

ing people into special lines is the best way for businesses to assist those with dementia. There are plenty of problems that can arise beyond the checkout line; someone might have trouble finding items in the store or feel overwhelmed by a long shopping list.

And special lanes may actually stigmatize them further, says Monica Moreno, the Alzheimer’s Association’s director of early stage initiatives. “If you’re a supermarket and you want to help individuals with dementia, I think that the best way to go about that is through education — making sure you educate your staff about the challenges someone with dementia may encounter and the strategies

to help them cope.”

Dementia Friendly America is a coalition of organizations working to increase public awareness about the disease and offer strategies for businesses, neighborhoods and others to help people with dementia stay engaged with their communities. Such efforts include establishing “memory cafes,” or gatherings for people with dementia and others to socialize.

The Alzheimer’s Association also fosters social engagement programs for people with the condition.

Often the goal is just to have fun, says Moreno.

Members of one group decided they wanted to strap on some snowshoes and go on a nature walk — and had a ball.

Asthma attacks can prove deadly to kids, but a new study shows that black American children are six times more likely to die of the illness than their white or Hispanic peers.

The gap in death rates “may imply a differential access to care” based on a family’s race, said lead author Dr. Anna Chen Arroyo, in a news release from the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology. She is from Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston.

Arroyo was slated to present the findings Saturday at the academy’s annual meeting in Atlanta.

There is no cure for asthma, and it can be deadly if not properly controlled through proper diagnosis, medication and a management plan, the authors noted.

One respiratory specialist agreed, and said kids everywhere are affected.

“Asthma is a chronic condition which affects approximately 9 million children in the United States,” said Dr. Sherry Farzan, who specializes in allergy and immunology at Northwell Health in Great Neck, N.Y. “There is a wide range of symptoms and degrees of severity,” she added, “with some children having intermittent symptoms, whereas others have chronic daily symptoms with recurrent exacerbations and hospitalizations.”

Families can help control a child’s asthma through regular access to health care professionals, making sure kids stick with their meds, and cutting down on allergens in the home, Farzan said.

But do all American families have equal access to these measures?

In the new study, Arroyo’s team tracked data regarding the asthma deaths of almost 2,600 children nationwide between 2003 and 2014.

The researchers found that just over 50 percent of all the deaths among children with asthma occurred in emergency departments or clinics rather than at home (14 percent) or in a hospital (30 percent).

And in all these locations, black children were more likely to die than any other group of children, the study found.

According to Farzan,

this suggests that “health care disparities affect the most vulnerable in our society.”

“Further studies must be undertaken to determine which aspects contributing to poor control play a role in this population of patients,” she said. “This can inform national measures to help improve the components of asthma control among black children.”

Dr. Craig Osleeb is a pediatric allergist at Northern Westchester Hospital in Mount Kisco, N.Y. He said that while certain genetic or environmental factors might play a role in the higher death risk to black children, “this study may [also] suggest discrepancies in access to care.”

These findings were presented at a medical meeting, and they should be considered preliminary until published in a peerreviewed journal.

Biotech Company Files Two More Patents for Proprietary Cancer Cure

(NewsUSA) - It is the disease that cost more than 8 million people their lives in 2012 and sees 14 million diagnosed every year.

It comes in many forms and there is no cure -- yet.

Part of the problem in finding a cure is that while scientists used to think they knew how cancer operated, it is only in the last decade that they have been able to better understand this insidious disease. Cancer is much more complex than originally thought.

But one company thinks it may have a solution. Propanc Health Group Corporation (OTCB: PPCH) is focusing on developing treatments for cancer patients suffering from solid tumors such as pancreatic, ovarian, and colorectal cancers.

Up until recently, the company had four patent applications for its lead product, PRP, a proenzyme, anti-cancer compound which targets cancer stem cell eradication while sparing normal stem cells.

Now the company has added two more to its portfolio.

"I have no doubt PRP represents a new therapeutic drug class with significant potential [because] when confirming PRP's effectiveness across a broad range of cancers, we also confirmed a synergistic response between the two proenzymes to the majority of cancer cell lines tested," says Dr. Julian Kenyon, Propane's Chief Scientific Officer. "We also noticed that for some cancer types, multiple combinations of the two proenzymes proved to be effective."

Propanc recently met with the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) to

cancers in the US and Europe in the near future.

Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas

Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins

By Brennan Williams TLC has finally set a release date for their fifth and final album.

The group’s longtime manager, Bill Diggins, posted an update on the album’s Kickstarter page thanking fans for their support of the project, which is tentatively set for a late June release.

“I am thrilled to let you know that the album is tentatively scheduled to be released at the end of June and you will receive your advance album prior to that,” Diggins wrote. “We are working out the official date in the next couple of weeks and once it is final we will notify you.”

Launched in 2015 by surviving members Tionne “TBoz” Watkins and Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas, the album’s crowdfunding campaign exceeded the group’s 30 day goal of $150,000 and has raised over $430,000 to date.

ANDERSON Case No. 56-2017-00493464-PRLA-OXN To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of TODD J. ANDERSON A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by Amber Anderson in the Superior Court of California, County of VENTURA. THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that Amber Anderson be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

THE PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

A HEARING on the petition will be held on April 12, 2017 at 9:00 AM in Dept. No. J6 located at 4353 E. Vineyard, Oxnard, CA 93036.

IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code.

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney

knowledgeable in California law.

YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250.

A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

ing New Kids on the Block, Katy Perry, and Bette Midler were among the many fans who contributed to the campaign, which will go toward production sessions.

The album was initially scheduled for a September 2015 release and the group received backlash from supporters after postponing the project. According to Diggins, the delay came as a result of the group’s 2015 North American tour.

“I could go on in more detail to explain how TLC’s touring, schedule, writing schedule and producing schedule was delayed,” he wrote. “But the simple fact is that Tboz & Chilli were inspired to make a record that they could be proud of and they would not settle for less and sometimes you just cannot rush art.”

“They demanded of themselves a record that would stand up to the great body of work created in the past and that you would be proud of,” he continued. “Because your belief and support is the greatest form of love and we want you to be proud.”

Los Angeles, CA — Television, film actress and producer, Tangi Miller, makes her directorial debut with her new film, ‘Diva Diaries’, in which she also produces and costars, at the Pan African Film Festival 2017 in Los Angeles, California.

Miller’s ‘Diva Diaries’, is about five beautiful women working, living and loving…in all of their fabulousness and of course, some drama. “But not the hair pulling, drink throwing drama we see on TV today. This film has good ‘old fashion’ plot, twists and tension,” said Miller following with huge laughter.

LEGAL NOTICE

ORDINANCE NO. 725 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PORT HUENEME REPEALING SECTION 3502 OF THE PORT HUENEME MUNICIPAL CODE

The City Council of the city of Port Hueneme does ordain as follows:

SECTION 1. Findings of Fact. The City Council of the City of Port Hueneme finds as follows:

A. Section 3502 of the Port Hueneme Municipal Code (PHMC) purports to make it unlawful for any person to “use vulgar, profane, or indecent language

ity’, as well as, Tyler Perry’s film, ‘Madea’s Family Reunion’, and leading roles in independent films such as the horror comedy, ‘Leprechaun: ‘Back 2 The Hood’, romantic comedy, ‘Love & Other 4 Letter Words’, ‘The MC Hammer Story’, sci-fi ‘Drones’, romantic dramedy, ‘My Girlfriend’s Back’ and many others.

The successful screening of ‘Diva Diaries’, comes on the heels of Miller winning a Best Diaspora Film award for ‘Boxing Day: A Day After Christmas’, a film which she also produces from the Nollywood & African Film Critics’ Awards, universally known as NAFCA in 2016.

This critically acclaimed actress has starred and produced several independent

on any public street or other public place or place of business open to public patronage.”

B. The broad prohibition on the use of “vulgar, profane, or indecent language” is susceptible of application to Constitutionally-protected expression. For this reason, ordinances similar to PHMC Section 3502 have been found by both federal and state courts to be unconstitutional. See, e.g., Cohen v. California (1971) 403 U.S. 15; Plummer v. City of Columbus, Ohio (1973) 414 U.S. 2; Lewis v. City of New Orleans (1974) 415 U.S. 130; Jefferson v. Superior Court (1975) 51 Cal.App.3d 721, 724.

C. The City Attorney has advised that PHMC Section 3502 is likely unenforceable and has recommended its repeal.

SECTION 2. The City Council hereby repeals section 3502 of the Port Hueneme Municipal Code.

SECTION 3. Environmental Review. The City Council finds and determines that this ordinance is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (California Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq. (“CEQA”)) for the following reasons: (1) it will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment (14 Cal. Code Regs. § 15060(c) (2)), (2) there is no possibility that the ordinance may have a significant effect on the environment (14 Cal. Code Regs. § 15061(b)(3), and (3) the ordinance does not constitute a “project” as defined in the CEQA Guidelines (14 Cal. Code Regs. § 15378).

SECTION 4. The City Clerk is directed to certify the passage and adoption of this Ordinance, cause it to be entered into the city of Port Hueneme’s book of original ordinances, make a note of the passage and adoption in the records of this meeting, and, within fifteen days after the passage and adoption of this Ordinance, cause it to be published or posted in accordance with California law.

SECTION 5. This Ordinance will take effect on the 31st day following its final passage and adop-

films, under her own production company, Olivia Entertainment, that include, ‘Good Wifey’, ‘Hollywood Chaos’ ‘Fanaddict’ and ‘Hurricane in A Rose Garden’, just to name a few.

Twice nominated for a N.A.A.C.P Image Award for Outstanding Actress, Miller is named one of TV Guide’s “Sexiest Faces” and Ebony Magazine’s “One of The Most Beautiful People of The Millennium”.

Up next for Miller are follow-up television and film projects, ‘Diva Diaries’ and ‘Boxing Day’ and in post-production her latest film ‘Twin Flames’ set in Atlanta, GA. For more information about Tangi Miller and her work, visit her at www. hubpages.com/entertainment/Tangi-Miller

Acknowledging Unprecedented Support for HBCUs

Beyond the Rhetoric:

Is the Democratic National Committee Evaporating?

Dr. Benjamin F. Chavis, Jr.

Harry C. Alford

There was a time when it seemed that the Democratic National Committee seemed to be invincible. It was the early 1990’s and this new comer from Arkansas, William Jefferson Clinton, was the right guy at the right time. He named a guy who came out of nowhere named Ron Brown to head the DNC. That was unheard of at the time. A Black man running an entire political party. It wasn’t long before everyone knew he had a calling. He led the DNC admirably. He got Bill Clinton elected and then the spell was cast. We had a new breed of national politics.

To everyone’s surprise diversity immediately set in on this new breed DNC. Mike Espy, a Black from Mississippi became the Secretary of Agriculture. Hazel O’Leary was named Secretary of Energy. Ron Brown, who was responsible for this great change in a political party became Secretary of Commerce. He was a natural for this position because he could make business deals with rapid fire fashion.

Ron never forgot about his debt to his culture and heritage. If there was something dealing with business we could rest assure that there would be Black representation. Ron took a trip to Brazil. While there he set up an office for the Minority Busi-

ness Development Agency to support our Black businesses when we ventured to Brazil in search of doing deals. That office helped the National Black Chamber of Commerce with a Trade Mission. We took 84 members to Rio de Janeiro and came out with $34 million in sales. The City of Rio de Janeiro gave us a certificate nothing that we were the best trade mission ever for small business.

Hazel O’Leary was no “shrinking violet” either.

She went into that Energy agency and made it clear.

She put up a big banner on the second floor which said, “If you cannot accept Diversity then retirement is your best option”. Blacks started dealing with Energy contracts like never before.

Mike Espy represented his roots in Mississippi like every person should – make your home better by your deeds. Everyone was enthusiastic by his energy and courage in making truth come to power.

While we were enjoying all this procurement inclusion the “Dark Forces” were not amused. Before long investigations, charges of misconduct, etc. started popping up against our brave new stars. Ron Brown and Mike Espy had to hire lawyers and pay hundreds of thousands

of dollars to defend their great reputations. While they went on defense to save their reputations and to keep from being indicted on various trumped up charges, Secretary O’Leary was being worn down by accusations. She eventually left from the immense pressure. Mike Espy resigned to prepare for the fight against big allegations. Ron Brown met a worse fate.

His plane ran into a mountain under very strange circumstances. Suddenly, they were all gone.

As Bill Clinton went on to his second term the motivation and hope for Black business started to wither away. Of course, President Clinton became preoccupied with his own worries about dirt that started back in Arkansas. The DNC became headless for a while and the George W. Bush came in with his own version of diversity. It was effective and the DNC strayed away.

Then in 2008 the DNC was ready for a comeback.

They put all they had in this young, inexperienced guy named Barack Obama.

Will Federal Lawmakers Turn Back the Clock on Fair Housing?

The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. routinely would remind those of us who worked for the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) during the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s about the vital importance of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). As we celebrated Black History Month 2017, Dr. King’s admonition concerning the enduring need for HBCUs should be reaffirmed every month.

Dr. King once emphasized, “The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character—that is the goal of true education.” Dr. King was a graduate scholar of one of the leading HBCUs, Morehouse College, in Atlanta, Georgia. He was not only an intellectual genius and spiritual leader, but also had an enormous moral character that kept SCLC’s leadership on the front-line of civil rights social transformation.

There should be no rational debate about the contemporary necessity to support the sustainability of the nation’s HBCUs. Yet, we do live in times where too many people have been misled to lean on the unfortunate and unstable walls of irrationality, divisiveness and the absence of truth.

ing” (AFFH), the HUD rule requires that cities, counties and states receiving funds for housing and community development engage in a planning process to help them take meaningful and deliberate actions to overcome historic segregation patterns, promote fair housing choice and create inclusive communities free from discrimination. Two HUD tools were shared to assist communities in the planning process, Data and Mapping and an Assessment of Fair Housing.

AFFH affects all public housing authorities and three other popular HUD programs: Community Development Block Grants CDBG), Emergency Solution Grants (ESG), and Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA).

From its beginning, HUD’s AFFH rule was met with attack and multiple legislative attempts to repeal it. The latest attempt is The Local Zoning Decisions Protection Act of 2017. If enacted, it would nullify the HUD rule. The bill would also ban federal funds from being used for any federal database that contains geospatial information on community racial disparities and disparities in access to affordable housing.

In the U.S. House of Representatives, the bill

As we continue to posit and emphasize, there is a glaring need to demand intellectual honesty in all matters pertaining to the pursuit of freedom, justice, equality and empowerment for Black America and all others who struggle to improve the quality of life for all humanity.

When it comes to the crucial funding of HBCUs, this is a matter that transcends the partisan divide between the left and the right.

Truth is nonpartisan.

Truth is therapeutic. Substantial efforts to increase higher education opportunities for Black Americans and others should not get mired down in contradictory and self-defeating political discourse.

March 16 will mark the 190th anniversary of the Black Press in America since the first publication of “Freedom’s Journal” on March 16, 1827 in New York City.

Honesty, integrity, and publishing the truth without fear of consequence have been the hallmarks of the Black Press in the United States for nearly two centuries.

We have neither reluctance nor hesitation, therefore, to acknowledge the strategic and unprecedented support that the Charles Koch Foundation and Koch Industries have given to Historically Black Colleges and Universities via the

United Negro College Fund (UNCF) and Thurgood Marshall College Fund (TMCF).

Recently, one of the single largest financial contributions to TMCF, $25.6 million, was made by the Charles Koch Foundation and Koch Industries.

These funds are dedicated to establish and develop TMCF’s Center for Advancing Opportunity.

“This is a momentous partnership,” stated Dr. Johnny C. Taylor, Thurgood Marshall College Fund’s president and chief executive officer. “Historically Black Colleges and Universities are uniquely positioned to lead the field in this type of research. There are thousands of fragile communities across the United States where there are tremendous barriers to opportunity. It’s important to recognize that lasting change to strengthen these communities must begin at the local level. So, we are proud to come together with the Charles Koch Foundation and Koch Industries to help members of these communities identify and study the challenges most significant to them.”

Political Involvement Is Necessary, Not Sufficient Julianne Malveaux

When future generations read the history of the nation’s first Black President, I believe there will be greater acknowledgement of his administration’s significant accomplishments. For now, however, an undeniable strategic war is underway to dismantle the very progress President Obama achieved.

General market media outlets have extensively reported on reforms or repeals of the Affordable Care Act, Wall Street reform and the future of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. It is equally important to share that a key Obama regulation that spoke to the future of fair housing is again under assault on Capitol Hill.

A 2015 U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) rule finally delivered on the promises first made with the 1968 enactment of the Fair Housing Act. While the Act outlawed housing discrimination, it also included another important legal requirement. To advance the purposes of the Act, federal agencies and federal grantees were also to forge inclusive and diverse communities as a means to reverse America’s housing history of segregation and Jim Crow.

Known as “Affirmatively Furthering Fair Hous-

has already attracted 24 cosponsors from 14 states.

Half of the lawmakers’ support for the repeal comes from only four states: California, Florida, Tennessee and Texas. A companion bill was also introduced in the Senate with one co-sponsor.

Rep. Paul Gosar of Arizona, the bill lead sponsor in the lower chamber, shared in a prepared statement why he feels so strongly about appealing the rule: “The AFFH rule marks President Obama’s most aggressive attempt yet to force his utopian ideology on American communities disguised under the banner of ‘fairness’. This overreaching mandate is an attempt to extort communities into giving up local zoning decisions and reengineer the makeup of our neighborhoods.”

For civil rights, housing and consumer advocates, the unique Black American experience was deliberately engineered—but from a different perspective: to deny housing opportunity, voting rights, economic mobility and even quality employment or education.

The unfortunate election of Donald J. Trump to the Presidency of the United States speaks volumes about the limits of African American involvement in the political system. Don’t get me wrong. I was born and will live and die a political junkie, obsessed with the minutiae of politics. Actually, I’m a recovering politician; having run for office, got my butt beat, and flirted with the possibility of doing it again for years. Politics is about making the rules of distribution, of deciding how laws determine who gets what, when, where and why. Politics, importantly, ensures that those, who make the rules are favorably disposed toward justice and fairness. Politics allows resistance, when those elected don’t follow the lead of their constituents.

Economics and politics are closely aligned. Economics also determines who gets what, when, where and why. “So-called” free markets determine the flows of economic distribution, but politics often regulates the way that these “so-called” free markets work. I say that these markets are “socalled” free, because we know that politicians distort markets to their liking.

During a recession, for example, politicians agree that bankers need a tight rein on

them that they can’t simply exploit for the purpose of earning predatory profits.

After a recession, some politicians might loosen the rein on bankers and decide to let predatory markets flow free.

African Americans have righteously focused on politics and the political system, especially during the early days of the Civil Rights Movement, when the fight for the right to vote was a priority. People like Fannie Lou Hamer were beaten within inches of their lives, because they were determined to vote. Medgar Evers was killed because he was organizing voters.

We had a focus on laws.

Dr. Martin Luther King once said, “The law will not make you love me, but it will keep you from lynching me.” And so we focus on the laws and on politics.

The Trump election reminds us of the limitations of politics, and the need to focus on the economic aspects of our lives. Political involvement is necessary, but not sufficient for Black progress. Every single economic indicator shows African American people lagging. Not much has changed since 1967, when Dr. King said, “Of the good things in life, the Negro has approximately one half those of Whites. Of the bad things of life, he has twice

those of Whites. Thus, half of all Negroes live in substandard housing. And Negroes have half the income of Whites. When we view the negative experiences of life, the Negro has a double share. There are twice as many unemployed. The rate of infant mortality among Negroes is double that of Whites and there are twice as many Negroes dying in Vietnam as Whites in proportion to their size in the population.” The numbers have changed some, but the bottom line is that African-Americans are not full equal participants in our economy.

How do we fix that?

How do African-Americans flex our full economic muscles? How do we reward those corporations that support equality, and punish, through selective buying and boycotts, those who oppose freedom and equal opportunity? How do we stomp with the big dogs like the Koch brothers who buy politicians with the same ease that some of us buy potato chips? Do we even stand a chance?

SNOOP DOGG From page 1A It may be an uphill climb to establish the fact of Ronald Klump (an apology from Snoop Dogg also does not seem forthcoming).

Over a 24-plus-year career, Snoop Dogg hasn’t exactly cultivated an image as a politically engaged justice warrior, but in our present moment, the cultural calculus has changed. Also, as my colleague Rodney Carmichael wrote of recent work from Joey Bada$$: “Even when totally devoid of overt sociopolitical commentary, rap consistently speaks volumes about the State of the Union.”

Mr. Dogg was born Cordozar Calvin Broadus, Jr. on October 20, 1971, known professionally as Snoop Dogg (sometimes shortened to Snoop and formerly called Snoop Doggy Dogg and Snoop Lion). Snoop is an American rapper and actor from Long Beach, California. His music career began in 1992 when he was discovered by Dr. Dre of N.W.A, and as a result was prominently featured throughout Dr. Dre’s solo debut album, The Chronic (1992). He has since sold over twenty-three million albums in the United States and thirty-five million albums worldwide. Snoop Dogg holds the dubious distinction of having seventeen Grammy nominations without a win.

WIZARDS From page 1A with their deep shooting touches. Centers Marcin Gortat and Ian Mahinmi provide defense, rebounding and inside scoring at all times over the course of the game. Washington could win it all.

Green: The team is solid, but they lack that star power that you need to win in today’s NBA. When superstar players like LeBron James, Kyrie Irving and Steph Curry get going, there’s not much you can do to stop them. We’re fresh off of a NBA Finals domination from James that was unreal. That’s what superstars do and I’m not sure if Washington can match that.

Riley: It hasn’t just been about the starters. Washington’s roster has finally been rounded out with key reserves like Bojan Bogdanovic and Brandon Jennings. We’ve seen in prior seasons that the team playing the best basketball at the end of the season is the one that wins no matter the strength of the opponent.

A balanced roster and strong coaching are key ingredients and the Wizards have both. Coach Scott Brooks has been amazing and has the entire roster in sync.

The way Washington is playing, they could match up with any team over a seven-game series.

Green: I’d be anxious to see them against James and Irving in a playoff series. We already saw how Cleveland’s two superstars piloted them in a 140-135 overtime win back on Feb. 6. James recorded 32 points, 17 assists and seven rebounds, dominating the Wizards at times. Washington deserves credit for how well it’s been playing but there’s not a large enough sample size of game-play to definitively declare Washington as the next NBA champs.

NURSES From page 1A Nurses have repeatedly joined with central California coast residents opposing the oil trains as a threat to public health and safety, as well as exacerbating the climate crisis. The oil trains pose an even greater risk to vulnerable populations, say nurses, especially children and infants with still-developing lungs and respiratory systems. People with preexisting respiratory and cardiovascular diseases also face an especially acute risk from potential spills.

Last fall the San Luis Obispo Planning Commission voted 3-2 to reject the plan by the oil giant to build a spur connecting rail shipments to the Nipomo Mesa refinery that would allow the transport of three trains every week with 80 rail cars hailing some 2.2 million gallons of the dangerous crude oil. With yesterday’s vote, the County Board of Supervisors upheld that rejection.

Rail accidents involving tar sands crude oil have created deadly blasts, and polluting spills with long term health hazards for communities around North America.

In Jesus’ name, I ask you to loose me from all soulish ties in past sex partners and ungodly relationships. Lord, I pray that You take The Sword of Truth and separate my spirit from the negative demonic spirt so that I can be free.

Hear Pastor Lonnie each Sunday at 10 a.m. at the Miracle Center, 38 Teloma Dr., Ventura, CA, www.miraclecenterventura.com (805) 644-7722. lonnie100@msn.com TRUTH From page 2A and power of our words. We begin to lie to find out what we can manipulate. We test and test again. Eventually, we learn to use lying to get out of trouble or to get something we want.

But lying can get us into trouble.

When we lie, we can lose the things we want most. Lying can create problems with our relationships. It can destroy our financial security. It can erode trust.

Friedrich Nietzsche says, “I’m not upset that you lied to me, I’m upset that from now on I can’t believe you.”

Sometimes we lie to control a response. We tell our side of a story. We leave out significant details. We rephrase the words we spoke. And then we tell this story to someone about an interaction with a friend or boss. The subtle changes we make may influence the person’s response and their attitude about the interaction. In the end, you can not believe the truth of their response because it is based on less than truthful details provided to them. You are getting advice based on misinformation. If you manipulate the outcome of the response, you are lying to yourself. And you are denying yourself of another person’s true opinions.

Sometimes we lie by omitting facts.

Perhaps you forget to mention that you ran into an ex and had lunch. Or maybe you conceal an ongoing flirtation with a neighbor. And you may be lying to yourself when you’re frustrated that you aren’t losing weight and forget that you mindlessly consumed a bag of chips as an afternoon snack. Everyone has experienced a time when they leave out details, but sometimes those details really matter.

Whether there is nothing to hide or something you are concealing, leaving out facts creates an opportunity for further deceptions.

Sometimes we lie by exaggeration.

We exaggerate to preserve an image of ourselves. There is a fine line between highlighting your better qualities and completely inflating them. Insecurities lead to exaggeration when someone has a lack of self-esteem; a need for approval from others. If you don’t think you’re good enough, you have to exaggerate to make yourself feel better. You may exaggerate to your boss about your abilities or skill level. But a poor performance is a broken promise. Exaggerating makes you untrustworthy.

Sometimes we lie to protect ourselves. We listen to our inner critic, that committee of voices that tells us that we are a failure or disappointment; that it isn’t safe to tell the truth about how we feel or what we want. We may guard ourselves from being vulnerable or feeling foolish by downplaying our emotions. But when you waste your time defending yourself against false perceptions of who you are, you move further away from your goals and aspirations.

You can begin by being honest with yourself. Although there is an everpresent possibility of deceit in all human relationships, your relationship with your own self is most important. Get to know the inner critic. Your inner critic was installed by years of negative programming of your subconscious mind.

Separate it from your now reality and stop listening to it. Be more honest and direct with the people in your life as you express yourself. Find kind and considerate ways to do that and be sensitive to the other person’s sense of reality. A true friend or loved one is someone you can openly communicate with; someone who can offer honest feedback to your concerns and ideas; and someone who would welcome the same honest feedback in return. Really strong relationships are based on what people really are, not on what they pretend to be. Truth earns trust and respect.

Joseph Sugarman says, “Each time you are honest and conduct yourself with

MARCH 17, 2017

honesty, a success force will drive you toward greater success. Each time you lie, even with a little white lie, there are strong forces pushing you toward failure.” Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi says, “May the Force be with you.”

TRUMP From page 2A On Tuesday February 21, Retired Gen. John Kelly, the newly installed secretary of Homeland Security, announced that undocumented immigrants would be deported if they have been convicted or just charged with a criminal offense.

This includes having “abused any program related to receipt of public benefits,” or “(having) engaged in fraud or willful misrepresentation in connection with any official matter before a governmental agency.”

Kelly tried to reassure the public that there would be no mass deportations and that the military would not be used to round up undocumented immigrants but that has done little to assuage the fears of those who would be most directly affected.

White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer also insisted that the new memos would not trigger mass deportations, but said in a February 23 press briefing that with these measures in place, ICE’s hands have been untied and the agency is now able to carry out its stated mission and enforce the law.

Not everyone being enlisted to target immigrant communities is agreeing to take part in this renewed immigration effort. New York Police Department Commission James O’Neil issued a statement to rank-and file on February 22 that NYPD officers will not enforce any administrative warrants issued by the feds that come from the expansion of deportation policy.

“It is critical that everyone who comes into contact with the NYPD, regardless of their immigration status, be able to identify themselves or seek assistance without hesitation, anxiety or fear,” O’Neill said.

Other police chiefs and city officials have taken a similar stance.

Meanwhile, those in immigrant communities have been pushing back by participating in loud and vocal protests, holding rallies and lifting their voices against what they describe as “a callous and dispassionate policy that is doing more harm than good,” and that in the long-term will harm not just immigrants, but the United States as well.

One such form of resistance was the “Day Without Immigrants” protests held across the Washington metropolitan area and cities and towns across the country on Thursday, February 16. According to media reports, between 30,000 and 50,000 protesters marched in Milwaukee, Wisc., in February. It’s still unclear how many immigrants—legal and undocumented—took time off for the protests, but those who took part and other supporters said the goal was to send the Trump Administration and the country the message of the importance and impact of the all immigrants in the United States.

Rolando Roebuck, an Afro-Latino activist from the Washington, D.C. area, castigated President Trump for using the issue of immigration to propel his candidacy. Trump’s cynical strategy, Roebuck said, has been particularly effective in portraying immigrants as the cause of economic decay in the U.S. “His portrayal of migrants as propagators of crime has intensified the xenophobia in this nation,” said Roebuck.

“He intentionally masks the positive contributions migrants have made. This group—and I’m not talking about the Pilgrims—have made significant impacts throughout history.”

Roebuck continued: “But he’s been very selective as he paints Black and brown people as ‘bad hombres.’ The xenophobia and stealth levels of racism have created serious problems and polarization in the U.S. The fight needs to be sustained and the various affected groups need to overcome historical disunity in order to create a strong front.”

Coalescing around common issues, Roebuck said, may be the difference between success and failure.

“We can’t rely on the judiciary to be advocates in defense of immigrants,” he said. “We have to create effective political strategies to eliminate from the political landscape those people who’re anti-us.”

COVERED CA From page 3A the additional benefit of cost-sharing reductions that reduce their out-of-pocket expenses by an average of $1,500 per year.

“Health insurance can be expensive, and the financial assistance provided through Covered California helps consumers save money and brings that coverage within reach of millions,” Lee said.

“As policy makers in Washington consider changes to our health care system, it is important that the impact on real individuals informs the debate in Washington, D.C. because we are seeing that many

will be priced out of needed coverage.”

While the average effects are relatively clear and consistent with the CBO’s assessment that “the average subsidy under the legislation would be about 60 percent of the average subsidy under current law,” the effect on individuals in California and nationally will vary greatly.

The examples below compare the financial help that consumers receive now through the Affordable Care Act — which considers a consumer’s age, income, family size and where they live — to the newly proposed age-based-only subsidies of the AHCA. For example, under the age-based subsidy structure, consumers purchasing the second-lowest Silver plan would fare very differently depending on whether they live in Los Angeles or San Francisco: In Los Angeles, a 27-year-old earning $17,000 a year would see similar net premiums: $55 per month under the proposed law compared to $52 per month under the current law. However, if that same individual lived in San Francisco, his or her new net premium would be four times higher — $199 per month — compared to $52 per month under the current law.

In Los Angeles, a 62-year-old earning $30,000 a year would see his or her net premium increase from $207 per month under the current law to $275 per month under the proposed law. If that person lived in San Francisco, his or her net premium would jump threefold from $209 per month to $668 per month.

“As many independent studies have shown, moving to age-based tax credits will hurt many of our consumers, particularly those older and lower- to middleincome consumers, and price them out of the market,” Lee said. “This would damage our risk mix and lead to higher premiums for everyone in the individual market, even those who do not purchase their insurance through Covered California.”

Covered California plans to conduct further analysis of the overall impact of proposed changes including all provisions contained in the American Health Care Act. The county data used to prepare today’s analysis can be found here: http:// hbex.coveredca.com/data-research/ library/County_APTC_CSR_data.pdf.

This is the latest analysis performed

by Covered California that details how consumers are benefitting from the Affordable Care Act. Previous analyses include “Consumer and Market Implications of Affordable Care Act Repeal Without a Viable Replacement” and “Covered California Brings Health Care Within Reach and Shows How Consumers Can Save by Shopping.”

Now that open enrollment has ended, Covered California is focused on its special-enrollment period. Consumers are eligible to sign up now if they experience changes in their life circumstances, such as losing their health care coverage, getting married, having a child or moving.

JURY From page 7A Colorado courts refused to accept these jurors’ revelations to contest the verdict and let Peña-Rodriguez’s conviction stand. He was sentenced to two years’ probation and was required to register as a sex offender.

Recognizing that every state and the federal government follow a version of the no-impeachment rule, the Supreme Court nonetheless said it was its responsibility to “enforce the Constitution’s guarantee against state-sponsored racial discrimination in the jury system.”

FEES From page 8A Avoid annual fees. Some brokers

charge an annual fee, often around $50 to $75. You might be able to avoid the fee by maintaining a minimum balance in your account, or there are a number of brokerages that don’t charge this fee regardless of your account balance.

Don’t overthink account closure or transfer fees. It’s common for a brokerage to charge $50 to $75 to close your account or transfer your holdings to a different brokerage. However, many brokerages will reimburse you when you open a new account with them.

Optional services are just that – optional. There are a few services, such as paper statements or premium research tools, that often cost money but are easy to opt in or out of based on your preferences.

How much could you save by choosing a low-fee brokerage? Unless you’re an advanced investor, there are likely a variety of brokerages that can fulfill your needs. Review the fees you’re paying at your current brokerage, or at a brokerage you’re considering, and the competition’s offering.

Paying $5 versus $10 per trade might not be significant for every investor. However, that’s the difference between receiving $95 or $90 worth of stock when you invest $100. Everything being equal, spending the extra $5 means you take an immediate 5-percent loss, plus you miss out on potential gains.

DEMOCRATIC From page 11A Somehow it worked but the inexperience and lack of clarity made its toll.

The DNC soon became a confused and misled entity. The loss of Ron Brown was a serious void. Black owned business was totally ignored. This new DNC was somewhat hostile to Black business. They would avoid it by claiming ignorance about contracting trends. One would ask “What are your Black business statistics?” They would proclaim ignorance and say “We don’t keep those numbers”. They would rather lie than produce.

Black business development has left the DNC agenda and all should be aware.

Who they have at their helm today is a scary situation. Tom Perez, newly elected head of the DNC doesn’t give a damn about Black business. I found him to be “tone death on Black business”. This guy was Deputy Secretary for Civil Right for the Department of Justice. I filed a Title VI complaint against the state of California’s Department of Transportation regarding its Black contracts amounting to only 0.8%. His formal conclusion was that since they were doing “some business there is no discrimination”. I was dumb founded.

A Black group in St. Paul, MN filed a Section 3 complaint against the city.

They were assigned Mr. Perez as their federal attorney. The case was going in their favor and it appeared the judge was about to award people living in public housing $2 million dollars in damages.

They were so optimistic until their federal attorney, Tom Perez, called the judge two days before the decision and withdrew from the case. What a betrayal!

With leadership like that, the DNC is headed south with a “bullet”.

HBCUS From page 11A The Center for Advancing Opportunity will focus on education, criminal justice, entrepreneurship and other issues the affect the quality of life in African American communities. The center also will create research think tanks on HBCU campuses, provide academic scholarships, establish graduate fellowships and render grants to selected HBCU faculty members.

As a proud graduate of the flagship HBCU Howard University, I have witnessed firsthand the advantages and enormous value of primary research accomplished by Howard and other HBCU centers of research power, ingenuity and innovation. The proposed TMCF Center for Advancing Opportunity is a welcomed development that the National Newspaper Publishers Association (NNPA) salutes and applauds forthrightly.

HOUSING From page 11A “AFFH is central to fulfilling the purposes of the Fair Housing Act,” said Wade Henderson, President and CEO on the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights. “It’s based on a simple and perfectly fair premise: if a city or locality seeks taxpayer funding for HUD projects, they should actively work to ensure that all taxpayers can enjoy the benefits without the prospect of unlawful discrimination. Indeed, the rule provides local jurisdictions with broad discretion to decide which issues to prioritize and address.”

“By attacking the AFFH rule, Rep. Gosar and other bill sponsors are seeking to re-codify housing discrimination into U.S. law,” noted Maya Rockeymoore, President and CEO of Global Policy Solutions, a social change strategy firm.

“By disallowing the collection of federal data by place, race and other key demographics, the bill’s sponsors seek to prevent local governments from making their communities the best places to live by limiting their ability to use critical data and information to inform their community planning decisions.”

Until the 1968 Fair Housing Act, local zoning laws across the country supported segregation along with redlining Black communities to exclude borrowers from mortgage and home improvement loans along with a litany of bad real

estate practices that denied opportunities to build family wealth. Omitting Black neighborhoods from multiple listing services, door-to-door block-busting that attempted to create a sense of fear from lost property values due to integration, and restricted covenants that explicitly excluded many minorities from ever buying property in designated areas — were all the kinds of tactics used to preserve segregated housing before the Fair Housing Act. Fortunately, a growing coalition of progressive interests is conveying to Congress their firm intent to preserve HUD’s rule. Led by the National Fair Housing Alliance, to date more than 950 academicians, individuals and advocacy organizations spanning national, state, and local levels in civil rights, fair housing, affordable housing have joined the battle to preserve an essential component of the Fair Housing Act. POLITICAL From page 11A I think that we have to spend as much time and place as much emphasis on economics as on politics. I think we have to be clear that poverty is a profit opportunity for some corporations. Attorney General Jeff Sessions has already reversed the Obama executive order that would stop the use of private prisons for federal incarceration. But these private prisons are machines of predatory capitalism, and now that Sessions has approved their use, their stocks are soaring.

So we have to ask ourselves if our pension funds, mutual funds, or other financial instruments invest in corporations like Corecivic (formerly Corrections Corporation of America, $CXW) and the Geo Group ($GEO). Can we push our investors to withdraw investment from these funds? Or will we be willing, in the name of predatory capitalism, to profit from this chicanery?

Politicians make rules, but money talks when the nonsense walks. We need to spend as much time focusing on economics as on politics. We need to follow the money when we see oppression. And we need to be clear that the clearest path to Black liberation is that path that focuses on economics.

NO LIMITS From page 15A A one-of-a-kind program, No Limits offers speech therapy, parent education classes, STEAM education, public speaking forums, a literacy program, national theatre program, loaner hearing aid program, sibling support, confidence building to participants and their families and so much more.

Whale Watch Season is Now Underway with Island Packers

VENTURA/OXNARD – Winter whale watching off the beautiful Central Coast of California runs from December to mid April. An Island Packers whale watch is a perfect way to gather with family and friends to view the Pacific Gray Whales as they migrate through the Santa Barbara Channel on the way between their feeding grounds in Alaska and their breeding grounds in Baja.

Other possible sightings include humpback or fin whales, and occasionally Orcas, all of whom visit the productive waters of the Channel to feed on rich resources found in the majestic waters.

The Half Day Whale Watch Cruise provides stunning views of the Ventura coastline or the Channel Islands, wherever the whales may be sighted.

The Island Wildlife Cruise Half Day tours the north shore of Anacapa Island where visitors will see the historic lighthouse, view the highly photographed Arch Rock, enjoy a closer look at the California sea lion, spotted harbor seals and other wildlife.

Rates for half-day trips are $38 for adults, $34 for seniors and $28 for children age 3-12. Children 2 and under are free.

Said sale will be held, but without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, condition, or encumbrances, including fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust, to pay the remaining principal sums of the note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust.

The beneficiary under said Deed of Trust heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a written Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located. 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 (844) 477-7869 or visit this Internet Web site WWW.STOXPOSTING.COM, using the file number assigned to this case 050649-CA. 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 Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

A hearing on the petition will be held on Date: April 12, 2017 at Time: 9 A.M. in Dept.: J-6 located at SUPERIOR COURT OF CALIFORNIA, COUNTY OF VENTURA, 4353 East Vineyard Avenue, Oxnard, California 93036, Oxnard Division.

If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code.

Other California statutes and legal authority

may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

You may examine the file kept by the court.

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.

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.

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 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 (714) 848-9272 or visit this Internet Web site www.elitepostandpub. com, using the file number assigned to this case 14-27968.

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 Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

Happy Birthday Mrs. Gonzales

The Dazz Band and Tom Browne at the Saban Theatre

Saturday, March 18 at 8 p.m.

8440 Wilshire Blvd., in Beverly Hills The Cleveland-based Dazz Band was one of the more popular funk groups of the early ’80s. The original concept for the group was “danceable jazz”; which was shortened to description of “dazz,” but the band veered away from the more melodic pop-oriented dance music and started playing a tougher, more groove-oriented funk – and the Dazz Band began racking up the hits. “Let It Whip,” taken from their second album Keep It Live (1982), reached number five and won a Grammy Award for Best Performance by an R&B Vocal Duo or Group. The Dazz Band had a string of six consecutive Top 100 albums and scored two other Top 100 singles, “Joystick” and “Let It All Blow.” Tom Browne scored two major hits in 1980 and 1981: the No. 1 US Billboard R&B single “Funkin’ for Jamaica (N.Y.)” and the No. 4 US R&B single, “Thighs High (Grip Your Hips and Move)”. With over three decades of recordings and sharing the concert stage with luminary figures of jazz music, Tom Browne continues to captivate listeners as an entertainer who has successfully mixed stage presence and musical artistry with a sincere audience connection and warmth. Tickets are $34-$74 with applicable fees.

Under 18 must be accompanied by a paid adult. For more information, call (888) 645-5006.
