Pluria Marshall, Jr. Group Purchases Three TV Stations By Merdies Hayes Special to the NNPA from Our Weekly Pluria Marshall Jr. has purchased three FOX-affiliated television full-power stations – KLJB-TV in Davenport, Iowa; KMSS-TV in Shreveport, La., and KPEJTV in Odessa, Tex. for $58.5 million through his Marshall Broadcasting Group (MBG) – pending Federal Communications Commission (FCC) approval. Marshall, publisher of the Wave Newspaper Group in Los Angeles, was practically reared within a media environment—his father is Pluria Marshall Sr., a co-founder of the National Association of Black Journalists, and in the 1970s formally challenged the dearth of federal broadcast licenses given to minorities when serving as chairman of the National Black Media Coalition.

Around the Tri-Counties How to receive Supernatural Intervention What does it mean to “manifest”? in a Crisis Situation The Mind Matters Words to Live by

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

By Pastor Lonnie G. McCowan All of us have needed supernatural intervention in the past, need it now, or will need it in the future. Most people don’t know how to supernatural intervention from God. The best advice is don’t wait until a storm hits to learn how to believe God for supernatural intervention. During a storm, emotions will cancel out your faith, if you don’t know what to do. The difference between a blessing and a miracle. A miracle is a supernatural intervention of God in a crisis situation. A blessing is still God’s power, but it flows through natural channels. Blessings are better than miracles. If you live your life from one miracle to the next, you will live from crisis to crisis. It’s better to be blessed with good health than to always need healing. God’s will is

for us to walk in blessing. We all need a supernatural intervention (miracle) at some point to simply jump-start our faith. If it weren’t for miracles, we wouldn’t grow to the point where we could walk in the blessings of God. People believe that God is able, but simply believing God is able to do a miracle is not enough. You must know how to receive it. Many people just wish and hope it happens. They think there is no way to grab a hold of miracles and make them happen. That’s not what the Bible teaches. God is predictable and orderly. He doesn’t do one thing this time and another thing another time. God created this world and everything physical around us, and the physical world is orderly. God is the same yesterday, today, and forever. He is forever faithful. Faith is governed by laws. (Romans 3:27) The kingdom of God operates under law. It is consistent. When someone is killed due to the law of gravity, we may wonder why God did that. He didn’t, but there are laws that He put in place. Gravity says that if you jump off a building, you will be killed. If you co-

operate with God’s laws, you will be fine. If you ignore those laws, you can be killed by the laws intended for your good. It’s the same with the spiritual laws of God. So, how do you receive a miracle from God? First, you must recognize that miracles are not just hit and miss. You can tap into a miracle. You learn the laws of God and how they work, and miracles will happen. I’m not saying you can push a button and God pops out or you can make God do whatever you want. I’m saying God is turned on all the time and any time, you get turned on, you can see the power of God operate. God is always wanting to move on your behalf. God is for you — He is a good God. You are the one who controls God’s ability in your life. God doesn’t. It is God’s power and His ability, but it’s up to you. The Scripture says in Ephesians 3:20, “Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us.” Many people leave off that last phrase, “according to the power that worketh in us.” If there is no power working in you, INTERVENTION, See page 12A

By Inez Lanns Father’s Day is this weekend, and although it is a day to celebrate fathers, it can mean many things to different people. There is the father who has done an exceptional job – not a perfect job, but their best job – in his role in his children’s lives. He is celebrated for all of the wonderful things that he has poured into his children. There is also the grandfather who does an excellent job of being that

to his grandchildren. He is also celebrated and loved. Children who have their father present and active in their lives love to shower their father with love on this day. However, Father’s Day is not as joyous of an occasion to the child whose father is not around, to the children who do not have good relationships with their fathers, to the single mothers and also to ones who has lost their father (whose life here on earth has ended). There is nothing like having a good father around growing up. He often teaches his children many lessons, such as hard work, integrity, determination, provision and strength. To his sons, he is an example of what a “real” man should be. He the model of what he should want to grow up to be. To his daughters

he is the example of what she would hope to find in a man. He displays a sense of strength and protection so his children can feel safe. A present father shows the importance of his presence and that he will always be there for his children. This gives his children a sense of stability which produces trust and confidence in them. Men possess a sense of authority, a commanding presence in the life of children. For some reason, a mother can tell her child something over and over again and the child may not listen. However, in most cases, a father will tell his child to do something and the child will do it the first time him or she is told to. There is something very special about a father’s love. There are many fathers out there working PRESENT, See page 12A

Ventura, CA -- The Ventura Improv Company will provide a humorous walk down memory lane to celebrate its birth. A grand 25th birthday party and fundraiser is scheduled for June 28 at the Rubicon Theatre. It was way back in 1989 when a handful of folks ventured to Santa Paula to take an improv theater workshop run by Barbara Scott, now of the famed BATS Improv in San Francisco. Gary Best, a seasoned actor at the time, tried improv because "it looked really scary." Despite his fears, the seeds were sown -- and, out of that fateful workshop, the Ventura Improv Company (VIC) was born. Growing from a small but dedicated group of people (including stillactive co-founders Best and Tom Mueller), the company first held classes and shows where and

The People’s Throb In What Ways Do Fathers Help Determine How Their Children Turn Out?

“I think it all comes down to examples you set for your child. Also, I think involvement is key. If you don’t set a good example, your child will not know the difference to what is good and what is bad. If you are not involved in your child’s life, you cannot be there to provide proper guidance to your child when every day life situations come up. I am how I am today because of how my father and mother raised me. I follow their traits when it comes to common sense, good judgment, and mannerisms. I cannot thank them enough for their commitment in raising me to do good and make the right decisions in life.”

“Fathers help by the way they guide and mold their children into respectful young people. Also, by showing them by example, by stepping up and leading a life in which their ways flow down to their children.”

“They help you determine by seeing the way they work so hard for us. By providing you with everything you need to succeed in life and not killing yourself like they did and still do.”

“Well, fathers play a pivotal role in all our lives. They always tell us the truth even when it hurts, but they do it with love. Fathers are key figures. Unfortunately, not everyone grows up with a father. Those who have fathers love them. They are a blessing. They help determine what character their children will display, and show the world, while making fathers everywhere proud.”

“Fathers help children with inspiration, and also helping the kids grow up to become better in life. Fathers also help kids to have a better understanding with life expectations and the difficulties associated in growing up to become adults. Children turn out to be more mature and have better understanding when they are raised with both parents in their life.”

“A father plays a very important part in a child’s life. There is a certain love and sense of security that a child can feel with just a father as well as a mother. That is the one person you always look to for help. Seeing that your father will do anything to put a smile on your face and a roof over your head, that’s what helps a child grow into a great individual. Fathers do this by showing responsibility and love for his children.”

By Joseph Erbentraut When 18-year-old tennis sensation Taylor Townsend beat 21st-ranked Alize Cornet in the French Open, she did more than simply extend her thrilling Grand Slam debut by advancing to the third round. The 205th-ranked Townsend's feat -- it made her the youngest U.S. woman to advance to the third round at the French Open since 2003 -- is even more impressive considering just two years ago, the U.S. Tennis Association attempted to keep her out of competition at the U.S. Open. It was suggested they would not restore their support until the teen, then the top-ranked junior player in the world, lost weight. "Our concern is her long-term health, number one, and her long-term development as a player," Patrick McEnroe, general manager of the USTA's player development program, told the Wall Street Journal's Tom Perrotta at the time.

By Aaron Wilson Cleveland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon was cited for speeding over in his Mercedes-Benz over the Memorial Day weekend. And with Gordon already facing a potential season-long suspension for violating the NFL substance-abuse policy, his passenger was cited for possession of marijuana. Gordon was ticketed for driving 74 mph in a 60 mph zone. His passenger accepted

responsibility for possession of marijuana under 200 grams with the marijuana discovered in a book bag that had the passenger's identification inside. "We are gathering information regarding the situation," Browns general manager Ray Farmer said in a statement. "We will not have any further comment until the appropriate time." Gordon's judgment continues to be questionable as he faces a potential serious NFL punishment.

Daryl Washington did not mention his recent guilty plea to assaulting his ex-girlfriend. He still could face a later suspension for the criminal conviction. Washington, in a statement released by his agent, said the penalty was for marijuana, and that he takes responsibility for the violation. He said he "is committed to making changes" in his life that will allow him to return to the NFL. Considered among the best in the NFL at his position, Washington was suspended the first four games of last season for violating the substance abuse policy. "It is completely unacceptable that Daryl has once again put us in this position," Cardinals general manager Steve Keim said in a statement released by the team. "We all know what the consequences are and will deal with them." Washington, the team leader in tackles in 2011 and 2012, will lose $2.9 million in salary, plus any prorated signing bonus money, due to the suspension.

David Ortiz Rips Into David Price

By Michael Klopman The rivalry between the Boston Red Sox and Tampa Bay Rays has been taken to another level. After a game that included four ejections, two bench-clearing altercations and two hit batters, Red Sox slugger David Ortiz lashed out at Rays ace David Price for "acting like a little girl." "I had a lot of respect for the guy, man. It is over now. I have no more respect for him," said Ortiz, who was one of the Boston players to get hit. He also referenced Boston's Game 2 win in the 2013 ALDS against Tampa Bay, after which Price got upset at Ortiz for watching his second home run of the game for what he thought was too long. Big Papi said Price apologized to him after the playoff game and he thought the two had "straightened things out." "So the first at-bat of the season against him, he drills me. That means ... It's a war. It's on," Ortiz said in the locker room after Boston's 3-2 win. "Next time he hit me, he better put his gloves on."

LOS ANGELES — Teachers unions suffered a major legal setback Tuesday after a Los Angeles Superior Court judge ruled that state laws governing teacher tenure are unconstitutional. As part of the ruling in the landmark education equality lawsuit Vergara v. California, Judge Rolf M. Treu issued an injunction blocking tenure laws but also placed a stay on the ruling pending an appeal. The lawsuit was filed in May 2012 by nine families represented by the group Students Matter, which sought to overturn regulations that allow teachers to earn tenure after 18 months and the rules that govern which teachers are laid off. High-profile officials including former mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and LAUSD Superintendent John Deasy were among those to speak out against teacher seniority rules.

In a statement, Deasy said: “This is a truly historic day for our education system. Today’s decision is a call to action to begin implementing, without delay, the solutions that help address the problems highlighted by the Vergara trial. Every day that these laws remain in effect is an opportunity denied. It’s unacceptable, and a violation of our education system’s sacred pact with the public.” Plaintiff’s attorney Theodore Boutrous also hailed the decision.

At the Obama Administration’s College Opportunity Summit earlier this year, the Department made several commitments to support low-income students and help more of them pursue a path to college success.

“This is a monumental day for California’s public education system,” said Boutrous. “By striking down these irrational laws, the court has recognized that all students deserve a quality education.

State News Congresswoman Lee Applauds EPA’s Lawmakers Welcome President’s Decision to Begin Cutting Carbon Pollution My Brother’s Keeper Action Plan

Oakland, CA – Congresswoman Barbara Lee released the following statement on the Environmental Protection Agency’s new carbon pollution standards for existing power plants: “The Obama Administration’s decision to begin cutting carbon emissions from power plants is an important step on the road to reversing the dangerous effects of global climate change. Rising temperatures, unprecedented storms, and in California, the most severe drought in recorded history, leave little doubt that climate change is already at hand and affecting the lives of millions of Americans. “The plan announced

Congresswoman Barbara Lee by EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy to reduce power plant carbon emissions by 30 percent makes economic and moral sense. Power plants are the single

largest source of carbon pollution in United States, and the EPA’s Clean Power Plan offers a fair, flexible roadmap to a green future. “These safeguards are of particular importance to low-income communities and communities of color, who are more likely to live near power plant pollution and more vulnerable to the effects of climate change. At a time when Americans are spending $100 billion annually to treat health conditions caused by power plant pollution, such as asthma and heart disease, these common sense regulations will protect public health in low-income and all communities, and restore our planet for future generations.”

Agents Bust Methamphetamine Conversion Lab

SAN BERNARDINO – Attorney General Kamala D. Harris announced the arrest of two individuals suspected of operating a methamphetamine conversion lab in San Bernardino County. Agents with a California Department of Justice task force and detectives with the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department seized a total of 206 lbs. of crystal methamphetamine and 250 gallons of liquid methamphetamine, which is capable of producing 1,250 lbs. of crystal methamphetamine. The street value of the methamphetamine seized is estimated at $7.2 million. “Methamphetamine is one of the most toxic drugs available, destroy-

made it a priority of the California Department of Justice’s task forces to stop those who would sell and manufacture this debilitating drug. This bust significantly reduces the amount of methamphetamine on our streets, and I thank the agents and partners who worked collaboratively to seize these drugs.” Agents and detectives arrested Jorge Valdez, 34, and Miguel Angel Sanchez, 24, of Hinkley. Both were booked at the San Bernardino County Jail and are currently being held on $1,000,000 bail each.

SACRAMENTO—Assembly Speaker Toni G. Atkins and Assemblymember Steven Bradford praised President Barack Obama’s My Brother’s Keeper initiative for releasing the Blueprint for Action Report, which detailed plans to help boys and men of color to succeed through education and mentorships. “The Blueprint for Action released by President Obama’s My Brother’s Keeper Task Force contains several important steps to help boys and young men of color develop and thrive,” Speaker Atkins (D-San Diego) said. “It is particularly heartening to see that the Blueprint dovetails nicely with actions we’ve taken in California to increase educational opportunity and to offer second chances to troubled youth.” Speaker Atkins noted much of the leadership on

National News Michigan Senate Approves Detroit NYPD Watchdog Gets His To-Do List Bankruptcy Bills with $195 Million

By David Eggert LANSING, Mich — Michigan's Senate approved spending $195 million to help prevent steeper cuts in Detroit retiree pensions as part of a deal designed to shield valuable city-owned art from being sold and resolve the largest public bankruptcy in U.S. history. The Republican-led chamber voted 21-17 to contribute the state funds to join $466 million in commitments from 12 foundations and the Detroit Institute of Arts. The pool of money would shore up Detroit's two retirement systems while the city's art museum and its assets would be transferred to a private nonprofit. A delighted Republican Gov. Rick Snyder said he will sign the legislation in

Michigan Governor Rick Snyder a day or two after proofing the bills, which passed the GOP-controlled House about two weeks ago. "This is a good solution. This is a way we can support one another and again make it Detroit, Michigan instead of Detroit vs.

Michigan," he said after the Senate vote. By backing the deal, the governor and legislators are hoping to avoid a protracted bankruptcy and the potential for city retirees to fall into poverty, which could cost the state an estimated $270 million in social safety net costs over 20 years. They also say that Michigan as a whole cannot succeed unless its largest city is turned around. "This is by far, in my opinion, the best that we're going to be able to do," said Senate Majority Leader Randy Richardville, RMonroe. "This money goes directly to the people that earned those pensions ... who through no fault of their own are at risk." DETROIT, See page 12A

NEW YORK -- NYPD Inspector General Philip Eure started his job last week. He already has a big pile of homework. On Monday, a coalition of groups that were instrumental in curbing the widespread use of stop-and-frisk -- and in creating Eure’s job -- published a report laying out an agenda for the NYPD's first inspector general.

The video shows the woman's two children witnessing her rant, while the man sits calmly in his car recording her comments. "You're a n****r. Nasty f**king n****r," she tells him. Despite her use of the racial slur, she goes on to repeatedly accuse the man as the one who is actually the racist in the situation, calling him a "racist n****r" and failing to acknowledge the blatant irony in her bizarre accusation. The video does not show exactly what sparked her anger. However, judg-

On the video's YouTube page, the man who posted the exchange says "I'm more upset that it was done in front of her children. They will have hate and have no idea where it came from." This wasn't the end of the woman's controversial remarks.

Woman Unleashes Racist Attack Teacher with HIV had Sex with Student, While Her Children Watch Knowingly Exposed Him to AIDS Virus

By Andres Jauregui A Louisiana high school teacher is accused of having sex with a male student and intentionally exposing him to HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. Derrick Nesby, 37, has been charged with felony carnal knowledge of a juvenile and felony intentional exposure to the AIDS virus, according to the Terrebone Parish Sheriff's Office. Nesby was arrested on suspicion of sex crimes against the victim, a 16-year-old boy, and authorities added the intentional exposure charge Friday. Police said the victim is a student at H.L. Bourgeois High School, where Nesby taught, and the accused teacher was also the boy's track coach, according to WDSU.

By Gary Robertson RICHMOND, Va. Motorists traveling a major Virginia highway now have a second supersized Confederate flag to catch their attention, even though the first banner drew protests and debate. The Virginia Flaggers, a group that celebrates the heritage of the Confederacy, raised the 20- by 30foot (6- by 9-meter) battle flag alongside Interstate 95 near Fredericksburg, some 60 miles (96.6 kilometers) north of the state's capital of Richmond. The group raised its first flag last year along the highway, immediately drawing complaints that it promoted racism and slavery, and leading 24,000 people to sign an online petition against its display. "We have no problems with people who have different points of view, but we also want them to respect our views," said Barry Isenhour, a spokesman for the Flaggers. The flag stirs strong emotions in Richmond, where African-Americans are the majority. The city, the former capital of the Confederacy, was the site of the nation's second-largest slave market. The Confederacy was

formed in 1861, when seven Southern states permitting slavery seceded from the United States. Isenhour said the new flag, which towers above the trees that line the highway, honors the approximately 250,000 Confederate soldiers who fought in battles near Fredericksburg. The flag is on private property and was funded by donations from around the country, he said, adding that the controversy surrounding the first flag increased donations to the group. The Flaggers hope to erect more banners in Virginia and elsewhere in the future, and didn't rule out placing yet another along the interstate, Isenhour said. Jennifer McClellan, cochair of the state's Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Commission, said the group is certainly within its rights to fly the Confederate flag, but added that to many, it symbolizes oppression of African-Americans throughout the nation's history. "For a lot of Virginians and a lot of Americans, it has a negative connotation," said McClellan, who is also a member of the Virginia House of Delegates. "It has been used by hate groups to promote their beliefs in white supremacy."

During the course of the investigation, police learned that the suspect is HIV positive, according to WWLTV. "We can establish the fact that there was an encounter that happened," Malcolm Wolfe, Terrebonne Parish Sheriff's Chief of Detectives, told the station. Police said the incident occurred sometime last year, and that the boy did not know that Nesby was HIV positive. If convicted, Nesby could face up to 10 years in prison on each count, a legal expert told WWLTV.

Financial Advice for New Fathers

Affordable Homes Underwater:

What Can Be Done?

By Jason Alderman Each year when Father's Day rolls around, I'm reminded that I wouldn't trade the experience of raising my two kids for the world. But when I think back to how naïve my wife and I once were about the costs of raising children, I can't help wishing we'd been better prepared. If you're a new dad, or about to become one, you'd better sit down. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, a typical middle-income family can expect to spend over $241,000 to raise a newborn child until age 18 – and that doesn't even include prenatal care or college costs. Right now, you're probably more worried about getting enough sleep than funding your retirement. But at some point, you'll need to plot out a financial roadmap to ensure your family's future financial security. As one dad to another, here are a few strategies I've learned that can help: Start saving ASAP. It's hard to save for the future when your present expenses are so daunting, but it's important to start making regular contributions to several savings vehicles, even if only a few dollars at a time: • Establish an emergency fund with enough cash to cover at least six months

of living expenses. Start small by having $25 or $50 a month deducted from your paycheck and automatically deposited into a separate savings account. • Even if retirement is decades away, the sooner you start saving and compounding your interest, the faster your savings will grow. If your employer offers 401(k) matching contributions, contribute at least enough to take full advantage of the match. • Once those two accounts are well established, open a 529 Qualified State Tuition Plan to start saving for your children's education. If funding these accounts seems impossible, look for a few luxuries you could cut from your budget for six months – lattes, eating out, premium cable, etc. After six months, evaluate whether they were actual "needs" or simply "wants" you can live without. Get insured. If your family depends on your income, you must be prepared for life's unexpected events, whether an accident, illness, unemployment or death. Get adequate coverage for: • Health insurance. Everyone needs medical insurance, no matter how young or healthy. • Homeowner/renter's insurance. Don't let theft, fire

or another catastrophe leave your family without a home or possessions. To reduce premiums, consider choosing a higher deductible. • Life insurance. You'll probably want coverage worth at least five to 10 times your annual pay – more, if you want to cover college costs. And don't forget to insure your spouse's life so you'll be protected as well. • Disability insurance. Millions of Americans suffer disabilities serious enough to miss work for months or years, yet many forego disability insurance, potentially leaving them without an income after a serious accident or illness. Ask about your employer's sick leave and short-term disability benefits and if long-term disability is offered, consider buying it. • Car insurance. Almost every state requires insurance if you own or drive a car, and for good reason: It protects you financially should you cause an accident or be hit by an uninsured driver. Make sure you have sufficient liability coverage to protect your FATHERS, See page 12A

A New Publication That Empowers the People

(NewsUSA) - America used to be considered a superpower -- a place where dreams were made. While, globally, it is still considered a great nation, there

Launched by the Washington Times, American CurrentSee (www.americancurrentsee.com) hopes to get its readers to embrace economic opportunities, moral leadership and freedom from what its executive editor terms, a "suffocating government." "America has fulfilled the dreams of so many people, but our founder, Dr. Ben Carson, worries that today's generation has been lulled into a complacency that is destroying their dream," says Executive Editor Armstrong Williams. "Opportunity has been replaced by despair. Mediocrity has supplanted excellence. We want to demolish this cultural failure and inspire the next generation with role models who have proven that the American dream is alive and well."

Nationwide, approximately 30 percent or one in three homes, with a a mortgage and priced within the bottom third of home values is underwater, (mortgage debt higher than current home value) based on a report from the first quarter of this year. This is compared to about 18 percent of homes in the middle third and nearly 11 percent of homes in the top third, according to Zillow.com. For those underwater, selling their home can be difficult without a short sale or foreclosure. When the home is underwater, often the sellers won't make enough profit to cover their expenses and position themselves to buy a new home using a deposit. For eight consecutive quarters, negative equity has fallen but, in this first quarter, it fell at the lowest pace in almost two years due to home value growth slowing. The forecast is improving though. Negative equity is expected to drop to about 17 percent in the first quarter of 2015. In the first quarter or 2013, it was at 25.4 percent. This not only makes it tough for homeowners who want to sell but also for first-time buyers because many of these homes

are what would be considered "affordable, firsttime-buyer homes". So, what can you do if your home is underwater and you still want or need to sell it? There are options. Start by analyzing your household finances. You must have a complete picture of your net worth. This means look at what's coming in and how much money is going out. Break your expenses down by listing each item and then go through your list to see which expenses can be cut. If you have high credit card balances with high interest rates, talk to a credit counseling service. There are many non-profit organizations that work with the credit card companies to provide you a much lower interest rate that allows you to make monthly payments and pay off your debt in a few years. Sometimes the interest rate is reduced by 10 percent or more. This can be a huge savings. The plans are voluntary and can actually help your credit score because you're paying down debt. Sell items of value that you can do without. If you're driving a newer car, perhaps, selling it and purchasing a less expensive and slightly older but re-

liable car can help during the financial tight-budget years. Give careful consideration to things like the cost of repairs for an older vehicle, the gas mileage, and insurance and registration costs when you compare getting a different car. Check your credit report and make sure you have a clean report. If not, work on tidying up the dings or errors that might be on it. Get an accurate assessment of the value of your home. Meet with real estate agents and consult industry professionals to get advice and determine the market value of your home. Once, you've taken these action steps, then you can begin to look at your options. First, consider if you can rent out any rooms in your home to help provide some extra income until your either have to sell or your home is no longer underwater. If selling is imminent, contact your bank and try to negotiate a lower interest rate on the balance of your mortgage. If you have HOMES, See page 12A

When selling a home your success or failure often boils down to the open house. Home sellers with an excellent open house draw in many potential buyers, while those with a lackluster presentation drive them away. Most home buyers make up their decision based on first impressions, so deciding to take the time and properly set up a wowing open house is important. Thankfully, by following a few easy steps, brought to you by the best minds in realty, this is achieved without too much hassle or expense. Haul Out the Trash HGTV recommends eliminating half of your home's clutter, either by renting a storage facility or hiring a junk removal service. Outside of clearing away unwanted items, also be sure to clean up every room and make the aesthetics of each minimal. De-personalize the house. Buyers want to see themselves living there, not you. There's an App for That Bankrate advises home sellers utilize social media and other Internet services to their fullest extent. It's essentially free advertising that can sometimes do wonders. "Make sure

your agent uses the latest technology to market your house. Agents can advertise open houses on a host of popular real estate sites, such as Realtor.com, Trulia.com, Zillow.com, and portals on Yahoo and Google," says Joan Pratt, real estate broker with RE/MAX Professionals in Castle Pines, Colo. By using the Internet and online mobile resources, you're also saving money on paper flyers and brochures. Organize the Cabinets Realtor.com suggests that "storage space is a vital selling point of any property. More is more when it comes to the nooks and crannies of where to put belongings. Cluttered linen closets, kitchen cabinets and bedroom closets

make it appear that your home doesn't have enough storage. Solve this issue by streamlining and organizing all these spaces -- we guarantee a buyer is going to look." Disappear US News believes that you shouldn't be at the open house, or if you are that you need to have limited to no interaction with potential buyers. "You shouldn't be home during an open house. If you're absent, buyers will feel more comfortable asking questions to the realtor, and discussing the benefits and drawbacks of your home. You'll also feel better not having to hear all of the potential buyers' opinions first hand. If you have pets, make sure you take them with you."

Real estate professionals often must evaluate environmental risks associated with property deals. Identifying, assessing, and minimizing such risks has become more complicated in light of several recent developments: most notably, changes to risk evaluation standards; a renewed regulatory emphasis on environmental compliance and enforcement; and a spate of transactions stem-

ming from the recession. In real estate terms, "environmental risks" refers most often to risks stemming from environmental conditions of a property. However, the definition also may refer to risks based on regulatory programs concerning a property or resource limitations. In general, every property should be evaluated for potential soil, groundwater, and vapor contami-

nation. Usually, a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment or Transaction Screen will suffice for this purpose. Depending on the property, however, a more comprehensive evaluation may be needed to assess other potential risks — including asbestos contamination, mold, wetlands, water resources, endangered species, and more — that can trigger liabilities.

Managing COPD in the Summer Five Myths About Retirement

Summer heat and humidity can make it hard to breathe for even the healthiest person. For people with COPD, the summer heat can not only mean difficulty breathing, but also potential danger. If you have COPD, it’s not uncommon to experience more shortness of breath during the summer months. Our bodies naturally work to maintain a normal body temperature, but when we’re exposed to extreme weather conditions, like heat, the body has to use extra energy to cool down and maintain that normal temperature. Since your body is already using more energy to breathe because of COPD, the additional stress of heat, smog and other air pollutants can make breathing harder. 1. Drink lots of fluids. Drink more than regularly, even if you are not thirsty or active. Reduce and avoid caffeine and alcohol, which can dehydrate you. 2. Plan your activities. If you don’t have air

conditioning, plan your day to involve going to places that do, like a shopping mall, a library, or another home that is air conditioned. If you usually exercise outdoors, you may choose to take it indoors or you may decide to exercise in the early morning or later in the evening when the heat and smog levels are generally lower. 3. Follow your local daily air quality report. Get a daily forecast of pollen counts and other

air quality must-knows for your area. 4. Breathe easier indoors. Of course no one wants to stay indoors when there’s summer fun to be had, but if you need to limit your time outside because of COPD it’s important to stay cool. Turn on the AC. Keep windows and doors closed when outdoor air pollution levels are high or at levels that affect you. This can help reduce exposure to air pollution. Take a COPD, See page 12A

Eight Tips for Healthy Travels

Just because diabetes is your constant companion doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy traveling, whether roadtripping across America or flying to the far reaches of the globe. Ensuring you stay healthy and keep your glucose levels on an even keel does require a little bit of organization and planning ahead, though. The American Association of Diabetes Educators suggests a plan of attack for ensuring your next travel adventure is safe and successful. 1: Over-pack your medications – Gone for a week? Pack two weeks’ worth of your diabetes medications in case of travel delays or misplaced supplies (insulin, syringes, testing strips, extra batteries for your pump, a first-aid kit, glucagon emergency kit, etc.). If you use a pump, ask the company if you can bring a backup in case yours fails. Have a prescription from your doctor for insulin or

oral medication in case of an emergency. 2: Protect your supplies – Keep your medications and supplies close at hand and don’t put them in checked luggage or in the trunk, where they can be exposed to harmful extreme temperatures (too hot or too cold). If you’re flying, keep them in the original packaging (so no one questions they’re yours) in a bag separate from your toiletries, as requested by the Transportation Security Admin-

istration (TSA), which manages airport security. Don’t worry, the TSA allows you to go over the 3.4 liquid-ounce carry-on limit for diabetes medications and supplies. 3: Identify yourself – Wear your medical bracelet or necklace that notes you have diabetes and take insulin (if you do). Bring a doctor’s note that explains you have diabetes and lists your medications, as well as a prescription in case you need more. Carry a health DIABETES, See page 12A

Conversion to Electronic Health Records Flawed, Says VC Grand Jury

In 2009 new federal laws mandated all public healthcare agencies to convert to electronic health recordkeeping—promising millions of dollars in incentive payments to those that fulfill certain conditions and phase in specific changes by set dates over the next few years. The 2013-2014 Ventura County Grand Jury recently finished an investigation into how the Ventura County Health Care Agency (VCHCA) carried out the crucial first stage of this conversion. The grand jury ultimately concluded that the agency’s handling of its transition to the new system had serious flaws, leading to a period of inefficient and delayed patient care after the “go-live” date of July 1, 2013. Billing processes were significantly impacted, requiring manual intervention and additional time.

The grand jury points to the following key causes of the less-than-smooth change: • VCHCA underestimated its technology needs and therefore time, training, staffing, and other resources were insufficient; • The implementation lacked a detailed, recognized-standard project plan, as well as an experienced project manager to oversee, track, and report on progress; • VCHCA did not hire enough qualified “contract staff” to support the project; and • System hardware was ordered too late to allow enough time for configuring of computers, onsite testing of all components, and fully familiarizing users with the new equipment and procedures. According to the grand jury, the VCHCA can be better prepared for stages two and three of the electronic health records implementa-

tion by adopting the following recommendations: • Institute a standard for capital projects, using a PMI-recognized projectmanagement plan, for example, a Gantt-chart-type software program; • Have an experienced, dedicated project manager in place throughout the life of capital projects; • Allocate the required time and resources to each project to ensure that all software and hardware is on site, tested, and installed to support proper implementation; and • Provide appropriate staff training for all projects that involve new systems and/or procedures. The grand jury’s full report, titled “Healthcare Records Processes and Procedures,” has just been published on its website, http://grandjury.countyofventura.org. It includes a step-by-step timeline of the system rollout process.

By Tom Lauricella It's not all golf and grandchildren. Many people spend years planning for retirement and think they have it all figured out, until they actually retire. Here are a few areas where retirees don't know as much as they think they do. 1. You'll probably retire earlier than expected. Sounds like a good thing, but it's not. Among the most critical variables determining the size of a retirement nest egg is how many years money is saved before withdrawals start. These days, many financial plans assume delayed retirement, and to a large degree it's happening. But not by as much as some have planned. Some 22% of workers say that they expect to wait until age 70 to retire, according to the most recent survey by the Employee Benefit Research Institute. But only 9% of retirees actually retired at that age, the survey found. 2. It's not easy to get back into the workplace. Meanwhile, retirees often find it hard to find new work. Roughly two-thirds of retirees say they plan to work in retirement, but just 27% report actually doing so, EBRI says. In part, the same dynamics that make it harder for older workers in general to find jobs also hinder retirees. 3. You'll regret buying that second home. A dream of some retirees is to buy a second home to live in part time,

and eventually sell their primary home. The advice from advisers: don't. "Our experience with the second home has generally been that they are expensive, a hassle and a mistake," says Neil Hokanson, a financial adviser in Solana Beach, Calif. "Clients could stay at the Ritz-Carlton when they go to their second-home area for far less, and with none of the hassle of frozen pipes, neighbor disputes, volatile housing values." 4. Medicare doesn't cover what you think it does. It's no secret that health costs are a major burden, but many people wrongly assume that once they pass 65, Medicare will be there to deal with the problem. Not even close. Traditional Medicare, the federal health insurance program, covers on average just 48% of an enrollee's health costs, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation. There are routine costs Medicare generally doesn't cover, such as eyeglasses and hearing aids. Dental

care, where it's easy to rack up bills totaling thousands of dollars for a root canal, isn't covered. Retirees still have to pay deductibles, which when dealing with a chronic or serious illness can quickly run up the tab. The biggest problem: Medicare doesn't cover the cost of a long-term-care facility or of home healthcare aides. 5. Your budget is unrealistic. A major part of retirement planning is figuring out how much money you'll need. This usually focuses on generating the income needed to sustain a particular standard of living. Many people work on the assumption that they will spend less when they're no longer working. It's true lower taxes and the end of retirementaccount contributions usually reduce income needs. But many advisers say retirees don't account for the general rise in out-ofpocket spending, especially when retirees are young and healthy.

out the one that matched the original. They found that people with a mild case of Alzheimer's performed worse than those with healthy, aging brains, and that young adults performed better than both of the older groups. One of the biggest challenges for people with ad-

How Well You Can Put a Name with a Face Could Be an Indicator of Brain Health

As you get older, you might find yourself worried that your so-called "senior moments" could be more than just forgetfulness. A misplaced set of keys here, a forgotten doctor's appointment there. But researchers say there is one thing that could be very telling when it comes to how well your brain is aging: how well you can put a name with a face. Remember that time when you ran into someone you were sure you'd met before but it took a second to recall their name? That's an example of your relational memory -- the “ability to bind together various items of an event," according to study author Jim Monti of the University of Illinois. Monti and his coauthor Neal Cohen wanted to develop a way of testing the difference between a normal aging brain versus one with mild Alzheimer's. The study had participants look at a circle, divided into three parts, with a distinct design.

Comcast CEO Ignores Reality, Skype Translator Means Never Having Says U.S. Internet Quality is A-OK to Learn Another Language Again By Drew Guarini Eight nations currently have faster Internet connection speeds on average than the U.S., and 30 have faster average download speeds, according to two separate studies. But none of that seems to bother Comcast CEO Brian Roberts. At the techcentric Code Conference in Rancho Palos Verdes, California, Roberts said he's just fine with the speed and quality of broadband service in the U.S. “I don’t think we should be ashamed of where we are with broadband at all,” Roberts said, responding to a question about why Internet access in the U.S. isn't better. Masayoshi Son, the chairman of Sprint and CEO of SoftBank, a Japa-

Comcast CEO Brian Roberts nese telecom company, refuted Roberts' comments on stage, insisting that Americans don't understand just how bad their Internet is. "This is the country that invented internet," Son said. "How can Americans live like this?"

Son cited Japan as example of exceptional broadband service, saying that average speeds there are 50-60 MB for $20-30 a month, compared to 6 MB for more money in the U.S. Roberts also clarified at the conference that Comcast workers don't "wake up everyday and go to work and say we want to be hated,” which is good to know. An April survey of 70,000 Americans found that Internet service providers and cable companies are the two most hated sectors in the entire U.S. economy. In a sad but admittedly impressive feat, Comcast and Time Warner Cable -with which it might soon merge -- scored lowest in both categories. Comcast is the largest broadband provider in the country.

Ventura County Animal Services Unveils New Mobile App

CAMARILLO, CA Ventura County Animal Services (VCAS) recently unveiled a new iPhone / iPad application (app) that includes detailed information on Ventura County’s adoptable animals, allows users to report a lost or found pet, offers the opportunity to donate to VCAS and much more. The free app, which can be downloaded at the Apple iTunes Store, allows users to browse through photos and descriptions of the hundreds of dogs, cats, rabbits and other animals currently available for adoption at VCAS’ Camarillo and Simi Valley Adoption Centers and

save those they like in a “favorites” category. In addition, it contains dog and cat breed descriptions and a pet notification feature so that interested adopters can be alerted when an animal meeting their preferences (breed, sex, color, age) becomes available for adoption or when a lost pet

matching an owners description is brought in to the shelter. “We are proud to now offer Ventura County residents easy access to our animals and services while they are on the go,” said Tara Diller, VCAS Director. “This new app is just one of the many innovative ways we are working hard to find homes for every animal in our care.” Created by the County of Ventura’s Information Technology Department, the app also includes a YouTube video instructional tutorial in both English and Spanish. To download the VCAS app, go to: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/venturacounty-animal-services/ id872171923?ls=1&mt=8. A version for Android phones will become available later this month.

Instagram Introduces Ten New Features

By Taylor Casti Instagram, the photosharing service made popular by photography enthusiasts and teenagers with their darn camera phones, has introduced ten new features that allow users to adjust brightness, contrast, saturation and warmth, among other things. The new creative tools, which were announced on the Instagram blog, are available for download via the App Store or Google Play. The new features certainly give photography fans a simple, yet powerful, way to further adjust their photographs. You know, besides just slapping a filter on them. According to Peter Deng, director of product at Instagram, the updates are all about "trying to bridge the gap between being a photo geek and the rest of the world." This is the first major change to Instagram since the addition of Instagram Direct in late 2013. The feature allows users to send private photo and video messages to other users.

By Tyler McCarthy Language barriers are about to be broken way down. Microsoft showed off its Skype Translator feature at the inaugural Code Conference in Rancho Palos Verdes, California. Skype Translator allows users speak to into the video chatting service in their language of choice. The words are then translated into the recipient's preferred language. The system will hear users' words and do its best to translate them in real time. The display will show a text translation of what was just spoken in case the automated voice isn't able to handle a pronunciation or moves too fast. When Microsoft’s Corporate Vice President of Skype and Lync, Gurdeep Pall, took to the stage to demonstrate the technology, he was able to have a conversation in English with a woman who only spoke German. “Skype Translator re-

sults from decades of work by the industry, years of work by our researchers, and now is being developed jointly by the Skype and Microsoft Translator teams,” Pall wrote in a blog post following the demonstration. “Skype Translator is a great example of why Microsoft invests in basic research.

By Alexis Kleinman Apple trumpeted lots of new features in iOS 8: Smarter notifications. Smarter email. Smarter autocorrect. But Apple didn't say much about one new iPhone and iPad feature that will bring a sigh of relief to anyone unhappy with the battery life of their phones and tablets (a.k.a. basically everyone). iOS 8 will have a new window that shows you which apps are sucking the most battery life out of your iPhone or iPad -- both when the apps are running and when they are on standby. Then, if you're inclined, you'll be able to quit out of those programs that are killing your battery. Poor battery life is very high on the list of complaints about not just the iPhone, but all smartphones. A 2013 survey from J.D. Power & Associates found that battery life is the least satisfying of 19 smartphone characteristics. As you've probably noticed, battery life has not been improving at the same rate as other smartphone aspects, like speed and memory, mainly since

“TwoDots” is here! The sequel to "Dots," the popular puzzle game app, is now available for free at the Apple App Store. (Don't worry, Android users, game developer Betaworks says an Android version is coming later this year.) The concept of "Dots" -- one of the biggest mobile games of 2013 -- is simple: Connect two or more of the same color dots at right angles. If you create a square, every dot of that color disappears. But "TwoDots" offers a different spin on the game people have grown to love. Unlike the previous game, which had users playing the same board

again and again, trying to beat their best score, “TwoDots” offers players 85 unique levels with distinct puzzles. Players have five lives to complete the puzzles, but these lives regenerate every 20 minutes. The game is unique in that it appears to have a fun story arc as well. “Join two brave dots as they traverse arctic tundras, navigate fiery jungles, and plunge the ocean depths.

The duo’s path is laid out in full as soon as users download the game. It leads up to the 85th level, where the game promises the adventure will continue. We're guessing that leaves the door open for future puzzle levels.

and writers were inspired by the example set by Maya Angleou’s pen and international activism. Maya Angelou was also a strong voice and contributing writer for the National Newspaper Publishers Association (NNPA). I remember that Carlton Benjamin Goodlett, the publisher of the Sun Reporter in San Francisco and leader of the NNPA along with Tom Jervay, Sr of the Wilmington Journal and Louis Austin of the Carolina Times all defended Maya Angelou’s open support of Nelson Mandela and the African National Congress (ANC). The truth is some Black Americans in the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s were too afraid of showing public support for the ANC because of the ANC’s strong support from the Soviet Union against apartheid in South Africa. Lest we are too quick to forget that in fact President Ronald Reagan and many in the Republican Party supported “constructive engagement” with the apartheid racially oppressive regime in South Africa. Yet, Maya Angelou never compromised her integrity or commitment to freedom and equality for fear of losing financial gain or popularity. When many people

avoided saying something positive or supportive about Cuban President Fidel Castro and his “Communist” military support of African liberation movements in Africa, once again Maya Angelou did not flinch nor mince words. She forthrightly stated, “Of course, Castro never had called himself White, so he was O.K. from the git. Anyhow, America hated Russians, as Black people said, ‘Wasn’t no Communist country that put my grandpappa in slavery. Wasn’t no Communist lynched my papa or raped my mamma.” Angelou was a conscious advocate, like W.E.B. DuBois, of Pan Africanism and anti-imperialism. When news spread about the passing of Maya Angelou at the age of 86 in North Carolina, heartfelt condolences were expressed my people everywhere. One of the leading newspapers in the Caribberan, The Gleaner, headlined “Jamaica Feels the Sting of Maya Angelou’s Passing.” Sheriata Grizzle wrote in the Gleaner: “No sun outlasts its sunset, but ANGELOU, See page 12A

It starts at the top, where 95 percent of its leadership is White or Asian, with only 2 percent Black and 1 percent Hispanic. This lack of diversity – the absence of equal opportunity for women and minorities – is a big deal. These are, after all, the companies that are creating the inventions and the markets of the future. The area south of San Francisco Bay is growing about twice as fast as the rest of the country. Unemployment in the tech sector is down to 1-3 percent. The companies argue that this isn’t about discrimination but about merit. But this is much more a case of an old boys’ network. Referrals play a major role in hiring, and they come from networks dominated by White and Asian men. Pipelines are set up to draw from the old pool. Many of the Asians are from abroad, here on limited visas, allowing the companies to pay them less. The companies argue that this starts in college, with a mere 12 percent of computer science undergraduate degrees as major universities going to

Startups with diverse staffs are more likely to be successful, according to Fast Company, a business magazine.. Minorities and women are major users of social media, and purchasers of technology products. Diverse companies are more likely to anticipate the needs and the desires of their customers. Other companies should now join Google and Intel and publish data on their workforce diversity. This week, we will send the leading companies a letter requesting action, and we’ll report on which respond and which do not.

George E. Curry color is still felt today.” For example, “…agencies like the Fair Housing Administration often refused to insure mortgages in neighborhoods that they deemed unsuitable, perpetuating systematic housing segregation that in turn fueled other disparate racial impacts that continue today, such as separate and unequal schools. Despite the fact that redlining was outlawed in 1968 with the passage of the Fair Housing Act, the housing market is still hostile to black buyers and renters, even in neighborhoods that have taken steps to improve residential housing segregation.” But you would not know any of this if you only consumed conservative propaganda. According to Media Matters, “Naomi Schaefer Riley, who once called for the elimination of black studies from college campuses, wrote in a recent New York Post column that we’ve talked enough about race. According to Schaefer Riley, Americans are ‘done with a national dialogue on race’ and Coates’ essay ‘offers nothing new.’ She also complained that Coates’ advocacy for HR 40 [John Conyers bill to study reparations] was evidence that ‘our country’s media elites are still stuck on

Last week, Google made the bold and necessary decision to release information about their employment diversity, detailing the race and gender makeup of its workforce, admitting in the words of Senior Vice President Laszlo Bock, “Google is not where we want to be when its comes to diversity and it’s hard to address these kinds of challenges if you’re not prepared to discuss them openly.” It is time for other Silicon Valley companies to follow Google’s lead. According to Mike Swift of the San Jose Mercury, leading tech firms – Apple, Oracle, Yahoo and Applied Materials – waged an 18-month fight against a freedom of information request for their workforce data, lobbying the Labor Department to treat it as a trade secret. But as Google’s figures – and those of Intel, which was the first to release its employment data – show, Silicon Valley has a big problem with equal opportunity. And, as Bock states, you can’t fix what you won’t admit. You can’t face the truth that you hide from. And the problem is serious. Google reports that 83 percent of its tech workforce is male, as well as 79

Beyond the Rhetoric:

Right Wing Media Pretends Racism Doesn’t Exist A new posting by MediaMatters.org, the media watchdog group, sums up the conservative strategy under the headline, “Don’t Litigate It, Don’t Ever Talk About It: Right-Wing Media’s Solution to Racial Discrimination.” The report recounts the media storm touched off by “The Case for Reparations,” Ta-Nehisi Coates’ excellent cover story in the Atlantic magazine. Media Matters said, “…The Atlantic has given right-wing media a fresh opportunity to argue that the best way to address racially discriminatory laws or policies – such as housing segregation – is to never speak of them, let alone litigate them under civil rights law.” Media Matters observed, “In Coates’ essay, which ultimately calls for a congressional study on the long-term effects of the treatment of AfricanAmericans in the United States, he explores the country’s history of racism and oppression, from slavery to the Jim Crow laws to the present. Although right-wing media have been known to erroneously claim that racism is no longer a problem, the systemic effect of state and federal laws that favored whites and oppressed people of

A Freedom Fighter with a Pen

Millions of people throughout the world continue to pause, to remember, to celebrate and to recommit to the living spirit and legacy of Maya Angelou. She was one of the most transformative global leaders and visionaries of our time. Maya Angelou was a penetrating literary revolutionary and freedomfighting poet that used her pen to advance the worldwide struggle for freedom, justice and equality. Angela Davis introduced me to Maya Angelou in 1972 in New York City. For the past 42 years, I have witnessed how Sister Maya effectively used her gifts and talents to lift the aspirations and voice of people in Africa, the Caribbean, Brazil, and across America. During the 1960s, she was a member and strong supporter of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) under the leadership of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Angelou was a fearless woman who stood up to challenge and opposed racism, economic injustice, poverty, and all violations of human rights, not only on behalf of Black Americans, but also on behalf of all of humanity.

a liberal baby boomer racial narrative,’ and concluded that the way forward now is not discussion, but ‘colorblindness.’” And she was not alone. “Right-wing outlets like The Wall Street Journal, NRO, and radio host Rush Limbaugh have come out against governmental efforts to remedy past harms using litigation to enforce fair housing laws and promote residential integration programs. When the Department of Justice went after banks who had racially discriminated against people of color, the WSJ called the lawsuit an attempt to ‘shake down banks for not lending enough to minorities,’ and complained the agency was attempting to impose an unconstitutional ‘quota’ system on lenders. The WSJ also claimed that the lawsuit, and other initiatives on the part of the DOJ, had done nothing more than “‘saddle a lot of minorities with foreclosed homes, huge debt burdens, and bad credit scores.’” MEDIA, See page 10B

Part 2 Presidential Program for the Development of the Afro-Colombian Population – that is the name of the program to empower Afro Colombians through entrepreneurship and job creation. The government of Colombia has the answer and we, the National Black Chamber of Commerce, is more than willing to participate in this noble process. As I said in my previous column, government representatives had been courting the NBCC for years. It was like we thought it too good to be true. Here in our own nation government has not been much of a friend and sometimes it can be a foe. We are so glad we finally made that big step. We are starting to write a thorough plan. It will provide opportunity in most industries and promote trade between the two nations. It must be a 50/50 proposition in order to make everyone happy and benefit both nations. The people of Colombia recognize the importance of a Free Trade Agreement which is why they patiently waited almost four years for the US to finally sit down and sign it. Tariffs and duties are now a thing of the past and busi-

ness is starting to boom. We, children of Africa, must get involved with that in a big way. It will be a job creator and a poverty buster. The quality of life for Blacks in both nations will collectively improve. Wealth building can at last be a reality. Right now, we are assembling various teams of Afro American firms to join Colombian counterparts with the ambition of major projects sponsored by the Colombian government and major corporations. For instance, they will be building 50,000 homes and we have been asked to bring those with major capacity to participate. Construction Program Management consists of a few Black owned firms and we must convince them that there is great opportunity in Colombia. Each one must commit to opening an office in Colombia. That office will hire and train locally and become a subsidiary of its American firm. We can emulate such a relationship for engineering, IT and architectural firms. In terms of infrastructure, the nation has budgeted over $14 billion over the next three years. There are utility plants to build and their oil industry is starting to mushroom.

One of our Trade Mission participants is currently trying to buy an existing oil company there. This could be big! They love our mission. While we were in Bogota, a small contingent from a neighboring province entered into our meeting room. Their spokesperson announced that they were sent by their Governor to formally ask us to become their partner. “We are just an hour and a half away from Bogota. Please include us in your plans. We have agriculture, fishing, emerald mining and many infrastructure projects. So, please be our partner.” I shouted “That’s a deal!” and everyone rejoiced. I predict that we will have many investing so much in Colombia that it will, in fact, become their new home. Their welcome is just that real. We have given our affiliate, Camara de Comercio Afro Americana de Colombia, a seat with our Board of Directors. This chapter will form a committee for the purpose of starting a national chapter of the NBCC COLOMBIA, See page 10B

Nexstar said it would guarantee the loans necessary for Marshall to meet the $58.5 million price tag. In a statement, Nexstar CEO Perry A. Sook said, “We believe the proposed transaction presents an ideal framework for introducing and incubating a new, minority-controlled entrant to broadcasting, and for bringing additional news, information and specialized programming to MBG’s markets at the earliest possible opportunity.” Marshall is convinced the deal will go through and that more people in the south, southwest and midwest will soon enjoy a more diverse television experience. “We are confident on our end that they (FCC) won’t say no,” Marshall said. “Nexstar is working with us because I’m an ‘operator.’ I’ll employ a ‘handson’ ethic that will offer a better chance of success than merely someone who is operating these stations from a distance.” Marshall said his group has answered “all questions” regarding the financial viability of MBG and, as is usually the case, he said, “…they (FCC) will likely have a few more questions, as is the tradition of any federal body.” Jim Winston, executive director of the National Association of Black Owned Broadcasters (NABOB), told Target Market News, “We have reviewed the application submitted by Marshall Broadcasting Group and Nexstar and are very pleased to see that the transaction appears to be the type of transaction NABOB was hoping to see as a result of the new JSA rule. It appears to be the kind of transaction that should receive a waiver of the rule.” Winston continued, “We still have some questions about the transaction, and we anticipate that the Commission will seek additional information form the parties about the transaction. We are optimistic that, as additional information is supplied to the Commission, NABOB will be able to wholeheartedly endorse this transaction. As described it represents the type of agreement that could be beneficial to increasing minority ownership of broadcast properties and create increased opportunities for minority-owned content producers and channels.” Marshall said viewers of the new MBG stations can expect a large degree of local programming. “Obviously, Iowa and Texas will be different than Louisiana and that speaks to our efforts to tailor each station to the demands of the local audience,” Marshall explained. “If there is something missing that we should be aware of, I’ll fill the void. I’m going to be in each town at least once a month; I obviously will have a lot of traveling to do, but that is how I plan on running those stations. I’m a hands-on manager. That’s the only way that I’ve learned to offer the best, most effective product.” Under terms of the proposed agreement, Marshall’s group will be entitled to a maximum of 70 percent of the revenue from advertising sold by Nexstar on the stations, and the agreement will not provide for any bonus payments to Nexstar for reaching revenue goals. The transaction structure reportedly provides MBG with an incentive to seek the best programming and thus maximize station advertising revenue. MBG wants to feature an aggregate of 24.5 hours of additional local news and sports pro-

gramming, “…and more will be developed,” Marshall said. It also plans to develop minority-oriented public affairs programming (required for an FCC license) specifically tailored for the local audience. These shows will be syndicated to other television stations nationwide. What’s more, Nexstar will add another 13.5 hours of local news and public affairs programming in Shreveport, Odessa-Midland and in Quad Cities (Iowa). “We’re dedicated to full coverage of local news and events important to each community of viewers,” Marshall said. The road to Black TV ownership has been a rocky one recently. By December 2013, St. Louis-based Roberts Broadcasting sold its three remaining fullpower TV stations to ION Media Networks for about $8 million. Roberts declared bankruptcy in 2012 and its decline stemmed primarily from Viacom’s decision to shutter the UPN network which Roberts was attached to because of its early focus on programming featuring ordinary portrayals of African Americans. Black conservative commentator Armstrong Williams was in the process of purchasing three television stations from Sinclair Holdings, but deal is likely to fall through in the wake of Sinclair announcing that it plans to surrender the three licenses in order to satisfy FCC concerns over its agreement to purchase a string of television stations from Allbritton. In a nation where African Americans spend some $45 billion annually on cable-TV service, Blacks reportedly watch about 77.4 hours of television each week, and watch 40 percent more television than any other ethnic group, the paucity of Black-owned television stations has been troubling to many industry observers. That’s why the Marshall deal is considered so important. Marshall said he will first go on a “listening tour” of the three markets to develop different programming that is timely, informative, entertaining and, importantly, family oriented. “We want people to watch these shows,” said Marshall, who is also CEO of Equal Access Media Inc. as well as heading the Los Angeles Independent Publications Group. MBG owns the Houston Informer and the Texas Freeman. “These are their stations. It’s their community. What we want our viewers to enjoy a selection of quality programming that will uniquely fit their needs. If we accomplish that, all of the hard work put into these acquisitions will have been well worth it.” INTERVENTION From page 2A you can stop God’s intervention in your life. God has chosen to never violate your will. God has chosen to flow through you. Satan can’t stop God’s power, but you can. God wants you to have supernatural intervention, but you have to stop waiting and start believing and speaking. God did all His miracles by speaking the Word. In Genesis, He created the world by speaking Words. The important point is that your words are involved in your miracle. Many Christians put prayer above all and believe that if you pray, it will happen. Prayer is like water or fertilizer that you put on the seed. But, without planting a seed, watering is useless.

You help create better people, which create better families, and in turn better communities which leads to an overall better world. The

positive impact that you have on your children’s lives is priceless. Unfortunately, there is a flip side to amazing fatherhood. There are some children who are being raised by not-so-good fathers and in bad environments. There are dads out there who are not a good example to their children and are sowing bad seeds into their lives. It could be because that is all that they know, or it could be that they just don’t know any better. But to those dads, I want to say, “STOP!” Stop being the reason your child doesn’t respect authority. Stop being the reason your child doesn’t trust people and doesn’t honor his or her own word. Stop being the reason your child does not know or understand discipline. Don’t make work your first priority. Be part of the reason your child succeeds in life; do not teach him or her to fail by your subsequent actions or lack of accountability. For the children who are being raised by this type of father, it is important for them to see a varying degree of positive, engaged men there. Examples of authentic manhood can be gained through involvement in other places or through activities where they can see what a father should be. This is why grandfathers, uncles, and cousins who are positive contribute to a heathy development of a child’s perception of men and fatherhood. This is also why it is important for everyone to try and do their best – that teacher, that coach, that minister, or that child’s friend’s father may be the only picture that child has of what a good father is. For the group of missing fathers who have been absent from the lives of their children for whatever reason, it is never too late. How did this category of fathers become so prevalent? It could be because he and the child’s mother separated or maybe they were never even together in a committed relationship. It could be that she is remarried. It could be that the mother is so hard to deal with and always causes conflict, so she has pushed him away. And I want to say to the mothers of those children, please do not do that. Just because you have a personal problem with him (that could be justified) don’t be the reason your child grows up without a father. It could be that he is not in a good place in life and feels like he will do more harm than good; he knows that he is not a good dad, so he decides to stay away. What I really want the dads who have abandoned their responsibilities to know is: your absence has just as much impact on the life of your child, only you are impacting your child in a negative way. Children who grow up without a present and actively engaged dad often wonder why doesn’t their dad love them enough to be a part of their life, be it the activities at school or just your presence, attention and love. Sons who grow up without that attentive model of a father in their lives can sometimes find it very difficult when it is his time to step into that role. Daughters who have no example of how a good man should treat her, may sometimes make bad decisions based on this factor. To those emotionally or physically “absence” fathers, I know you may feel guilty, hurt, rejected and sad, but you need to find a way to overcome those feelings, be prepared for the anger or tears that your children may have at first and step into the lives of your children. Make an attempt. Apologize. Help with the healing process. And make every effort to be a part of your child’s life. They didn’t get to choose their parents, but you can choose to positively invest in their lives. You can then see the harvest from the good things you have sown in your children, in your grandchildren and in your greatgrandchildren. It’s never too late to become a present, loving and dependable role model to your children. For no matter how old they become there is a place in their life, only you are able to fill.

MANIFEST From page 2A It is a symptom of your thoughts – good and bad. This is good news! If you recognize that you are constantly in manifestation mode, you become more aware of the power of your thoughts. When you recognize your power, you use it to your advantage. You become more conscious of what you are thinking. You know that The Mind Matters!

And now for more good news! You are in control of your thoughts each and every moment. You actually make a choice about what you focus your thoughts upon. And you have the power to make a different choice if you want to create a different result or experience. Viktor Frankl tells us, “Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.” When you think a thought – any thought, good or bad – it has the power to show up in your life. The proof could show up as catastrophic illness or vibrant health; it may manifest as overwhelming lack or great abundance. Bad thoughts can destroy relationships and careers. Good ones can create adventure and delight. You can be certain your invisible thought will become a visible reflection of itself. It’s just the way it works. You Think. You Create. Don Miguel Ruiz tells us, “The dream you are living is your creation. It is your perception of reality that you can change at any time. You have the power to create hell, and you have the power to create heaven. Why not dream a different dream? Why not use your mind, your imagination, and your emotions to dream heaven?” Again, I ask, what are you thinking? IMPROV From page 2A and of the good people of Ventura County who have attended our shows.” Ventura’s Rubicon Theatre will provide the stage for June 28’s bash, which will include drinks, snacks, and an improv show featuring many returning friends and alumni of the VIC, including members of LA TheatreSports, San Francisco’s BATS Improv, and more. Many laughs and memories will be guaranteed. “It will be great to have old and new VIC friends together to celebrate,” says Mueller. “We all deserve a big pat on the back.” VIC’s 25th Birthday Party and Fundraiser is happening on Saturday June 28th.

Earlier this year, the President spoke with other men of color, including educators, business leaders, and policy makers, to launch community oriented programs that encourage school attendance, early education, and enhance career opportunities. The Assembly Select Committee on Boys and Men of Color was established in 2011 to develop strategies on how to advance health and opportunity for California’s young men of color. The Select Committee holds hearings across the state that focus on health, education, violence prevention and youth development.

Visit http://www.tsa.gov/travelerinformation/passengers-diabetes before your trip to learn about current screening policies. If you plan to inject insulin while flying, be forewarned – the pressurized air can make it more challenging to draw up your insulin, if using a vial and syringe, so be extra careful not to inject air into the bottle. 6: Test often – New foods, increased activity and different time zones can throw your glucose levels out of whack, so be sure to test frequently, including before and after meals. If you take insulin, keeping your levels steady can be tricky when changing time zones, so make a plan to adjust your schedule for injecting. Before your trip, see a diabetes educator, who can help you with this challenging process. 7: Favor your feet – Wear comfortable well-fitting shoes and socks at all times. Never go barefoot. Check your feet frequently, especially after a hike or long walk. Feet and ankles often swell during flights so consider wearing light knee-high compression stockings (20-30 mm Hg) or bring thinner socks to change into if your feet swell. 8: Prepare for a health emergency – If you need medical treatment, ask your hotel to recommend a local doctor who treats diabetes. Prior to an overseas trip, get a list of local English-speaking doctors through the International Association for Medical Assistance to Travelers.

The potent words have now resurfaced as news of Angelou’s passing spread throughout the world. Her global influence is undeniable… there has been an outpouring of tributes for a poet who wrote her way into the hearts of many.” We all must now take up the pen of Maya Angelou and continue her spirit for the cause of liberation, equality and empowerment for all people everywhere.

Entertainment News 'Reading Rainbow' is Making a Comeback

By Jessica Toomer You're about to come down with a severe case of childhood nostalgia. "Reading Rainbow," the 1980s children's show that aired on PBS, was responsible for teaching literacy to millions of children across the country. In fact, America probably wouldn't be able to read without host LeVar Burton smoothly narrating us through adventurous tales and teaching us the life lessons held between the pages of his favorite books. And now, after ending its 26-year long run on TV, Burton is hoping to save America's youth once more by reviving "Reading Rainbow" via his Kickstarter campaign. The Kickstarter campaign reached and then exceeded its goal in half a day. They’re still accepting contributions. The campaign is raising funds in order to offer a version of the Emmy-winning children's program on the Internet. Burton says the world wide web is the best way to reach his select audience and it totally fits with what the show is all about. "You take advantage of where kids

LeVar Burton are. Back in the ’80s that was in front of the television set," Burton told The Verge. "Today, you have to have access to the web." The show is already available as an app for tablet users, but with only 33 percent of families having access to these devices, it's time "Reading Rainbow" expanded to meet the needs of all children. The project's goals don't just include bringing the show online. Burton wants his reading program to be available in classrooms and low-income schools for free. For individuals and families who'd like to sign their kids up for

story-time, they can buy a subscription similar to the tablet app which costs roughly $60 per year. While that number may seem steep, Burton says you can't put a price on education. "Our educational system -the way we educate our kids -- is failing our children," Burton said. "We're getting our assess kicked right now. Long term, I know if we're successful we're going to have a better educated populace in America, and we'll be better prepared to compete going forward." While all that may be true, we're just excited to have an excuse to play this little jingle again.

Wendell Pierce Joins Paramount’s MLK film ‘Selma’

Wendell Pierce, a standout alum of HBO shows “The Wire” and “Treme,” has signed on to join Paramount’s Martin Luther King Jr. film “Selma.” Ava DuVernay is directing the film, which focuses on the attempts of black marchers to walk from Selma to Montgomery, the capital of Alabama, in 1965, in order to gain voting rights, only to be beaten back by police. It took the organizers three attempts to make the journey as the number of marchers grew each time. David Oyelowo is playing Martin Luther King Jr., while Carmen Ejogo will take on the role of Coretta

Wendell Pierce Scott King. Tom Wilkinson will play President Lyndon B. Johnson.

Pierce will play Reverend Hosea Williams, one of King’s confidants and lieutenants in the civil rights movement. The project is currently filming in Atlanta. The film’s notable collection of producers includes Oprah Winfrey and her Harpo banner, Plan B’s Brad Pitt, Dede Gardner and Jeremy Kleiner (who produced Oscar-winning film “12 Years a Slave”), and Christian Colson, who won an Oscar for “Slumdog Millionaire.” Emmy-winning actor Pierce will next be seen on Showtime’s “Ray Donovan” and CBS’ midseason comedy “The Odd Couple.”

'Raisin In The Sun' Star Honored During Lavish Party

By Mark Kennedy NEW YORK — These days, an invitation to a tea party likely means lots of heated political talk. But at one held this week in Manhattan, the only thing brewing was Earl Grey and a love fest for a Tony Award nominee. LaTanya Richardson Jackson was the guest of honor as two dozen celebrity friends ranging from Judge Judy to Star Jones came to toast the actress, currently starring on Broadway in "A Raisin in the Sun" opposite Denzel Washington. The party, at Lady Mendl's Tea Salon at the Inn at Irving Place, was hosted by Julianne Moore and the good vibes came from as far away as the White House — Michelle Obama sent a letter with her "warmest greetings." Among those who attended included producer and writer Tonya Lewis Lee, editor Susan Taylor, dancer and choreographer

LaTanya Richardson Jackson Judith Jamison, floral designer Saundra Parks, costume designer Ann Roth and actresses Marsha Stephanie Blake, Judith Light, Ellen Barkin, S. Epatha Merkerson, Michelle Beck, Pauletta Washington, Phylicia Rashad and Julie Halston. Richardson Jackson's husband, Samuel L. Jackson, looked cool in a white cap and white shorts. "I thank you for this moment," said the guest of honor, holding a flute of bubbly. "I raise a glass for all of you. Thank you for

being in my life. God bless each and every one of you." She ended with the cheer: "To the women and the women that we love." Moore, who befriended Richardson Jackson when they shot the 2006 film "Freedomland," said she saw "A Raisin in the Sun" on opening night and was "absolutely staggered" by her pal's portrayal of matriarch Lena Younger. "She was loving and maternal and fierce and complex and passionate and demanding and manipulative — a million, wonderful things," said Moore, the newly crowned best actress winner at the Cannes Film Festival. "In short, she was a live human being onstage. And as we know, that's the hardest thing to do." Lorraine Hansberry's play, set in 1950s Chicago, centers on a struggling working-class black family anxiously awaiting a $10,000 insurance check and the ensuing squabbles over how to spend it.

Aretha Franklin Receives Honorary Degree from Harvard

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. -- A former president and the Queen of Soul have received honorary degrees from Harvard University. George H.W. Bush, Aretha Franklin and six others were honored at the commencement. Harvard President Drew Faust poked fun at the 89-year-old Bush's Yale University credentials, saying his "cap was blue, his house was white and now his robe is crimson," but added that Bush "piloted our nation though changeful skies."

By Lynn Elber LOS ANGELES — "The Arsenio Hall Show" has been canceled because of low ratings, ending Hall's late-night comeback bid after a single season. Hall's bid to recreate the success he enjoyed 20 years ago failed to find a big enough audience in the ever-crowded TV market. CBS Television Production had previously announced Hall's syndicated show would be back for a second season, but faced the prospect of stations moving it to lesser time slots as ratings fell. In a statement, Hall said he knew launching the show would be a challenge. "I'm gratified for the year we've had and proud of the show we created," the actor

native to Johnny Carson and "The Tonight Show" on NBC. Guests including sax playing-presidential candidate Bill Clinton helped push Hall into the spotlight. By 1994, with increased competition from new "Tonight" host Jay Leno and CBS' David Letterman, Hall's ratings had slipped and the show ended. When Hall returned last year, he was fighting for attention with even more programs, including ABC's Jimmy Kimmel and the Comedy Central lineup. The cancellation of Hall's show returns the late-night talk show scene to almost uniformly white male hosts, with a few exceptions such as Tavis Smiley on PBS.

Brian McKnight Opens Up About His Million Dollar Tax Debt

Throughout the course of his career, Brian McKnight achieved a tremendous amount of success with chart-topping music that earned him multiple Grammy Award nominations. However, earlier this year, the “Anytime” crooner managed to land on top of a less glamorous list as one of California’s Top 500 Delinquent Taxpayers. According to TMZ, McKnight is facing a $1.5M tax lien, which has ultimately resulted in the singer filing a lawsuit against his accountant, Vernon Brown. During an appearance on HuffPost Live, the 45-year-old opened up on his financial woes with Uncle Sam. “When you have business managers, when you have folks managing your money, it’s very important that you know where every single penny of yours, not just the dollars, is going,” he said. “And that those people are doing their diligence to make sure that you’re on time with the things that you need to be on time with. Because we basically all work just to pay taxes, let’s be real about that. Practically in my tax bracket. And when those things lapse, there can be some bad things that happen.”

Arsenio Hall and comedian added. The show is in reruns and won't resume production, a show spokesman said. The last original episode aired May 21. When Hall began his original series in 1989, he was seen as the cool alter-

New Documents Shed Light on U.S. Spying on Mandela

Nelson Mandela By Zenitha Prince (TriceEdneyWire.com) --- American intelligence agencies spied on the late South African leader Nelson Mandela during his historic 1990 visit to the United States, shortly after he was released from prison, where he served a 27-year sentence for antiapartheid activism. That revelation is but one of the findings from a batch of documents released by the FBI in response to a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit filed by Ryan Shapiro, a doctoral candidate in history at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The 38-year-old historian sued the FBI, National Security Agency, Defense Intelligence Agency and the

Central Intelligence Agency in March for failing to fulfill FOIA requests for records about the spy agencies’ alleged involvement in Mandela’s 1962 arrest and his placement on the U.S. terror watch list until 2008, among other things. “Though it’s unfortunate it required a lawsuit, I’m of course pleased the FBI is now complying in part with my FOIA request,” Shapiro told the AFRO. “As a result, we now have evidence the FBI spied on Mandela while they were supposed to be protecting him.” According to the documents, the FBI developed a confidential informant, referred to as the “source,” who was at least closely affiliated with Mandela’s U.S. entourage. That informant provided logistical information, such as places and times where Mandela would be, and political information, such as a prospective meeting with Louis Farrakhan, and the identities and recent travels of African National Congress (ANC) leaders in the U.S. At the time, the ANC was still considered a terrorist organization by the U.S. government. The FBI documents also revealed that several death threats were made against Mandela during his visit. A particularly disturbing one came in the form of a handwritten letter attached

to a Houston Chronicle article about the iconic leader’s potential visit to the Texas city. It threatened, “Remember John F. Kennedy in Dallas? Bring this black murderer to Houston and we will give him a welcome that the world will not forget!!!” Shapiro said there were several issues that were not addressed in the hundreds of pages provided by the FBI. “What’s missing from these documents is often as illuminative as what’s dis-

closed,” he said. “Not only did the FBI heavily redact and withhold documents, but there’s virtually no discussion of U.S. intelligence community involvement prior to Mandela’s 1990 release from prison. “Worse,” he added, “the agencies most likely to possess such records, the CIA and NSA, continue their refusal to comply with my FOIA requests. Hopefully the judge will compel these agencies to MANDELA, See page 10B

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.)

A HEARING on the petition will be held on June 26, 2014 at 9:00 AM in Dept. No. J6 located at 4353 E. Vineyard, Oxnard, CA 93036.

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.

(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.)

cause why the court should not grant the authority. A hearing on the petition will be held on Date: July 10, 2014 at Time: 9:00 a.m. in Dept.: J6 located at SUPERIOR COURT OF CALIFORNIA, COUNTY OF VENTURA, 4353 East Vineyard Avenue, Oxnard, CA 93036, Juvenile Justice Center.

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.

Street Address or other common designation of real property: 2762 ERRINGER ROAD #14 SIMI VALLEY, CA 93065-1160 Described as follows: As more fully described on said Deed of Trust. A.P.N #.: 6130-260-145 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address or other common designation, if any, shown above. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. 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) 573-1965 or visit this Internet Web site www.priorityposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case 1219095. 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.

Somekindawonderful at SOhO Restaurant and Music Club

Thursday, June 19 at 9 p.m. at 1221 State St., in Santa Barbara The law of attraction is real. Though the meaning of this theory has endured both sides of a longtime debate, the unwavering fact remains that every encounter serves a purpose. For the members of Cleveland-bred “grunge-soul” band SomeKindaWonderful, an unexpected run-in at a local bar sparked the beginning of a whirlwind success story which includes successful shows at SXSW, a celebrated tour, and a buzzing single that has already received notable mash-up remixes from a select list of EDM stars. Blending an indie-soul sound reminiscent of Mayer Hawthorne with an alternative edge and hiphop undertone, the eclectic group leverages its extensive slate of musical influences to deliver a new age approach to melodic love stories. Taking pride in remaining authentic, SomeKindaWonderful is unafraid to be honest about their experiences, introducing a fresh perspective the emerging generation can connect with. This event is 18 and over. Tickets are $10-$12. For more information, call (805) 962-7776 or visit www.sohosb.com.

The Sound Effect band prides themselves in their trueness to live music. All instruments are played live and they never use pre-recorded background tracks at any live performances. This gives them the ability to change the feel of songs as they feel the need to which in turn keeps them fresh and energetic on stage. The fact that the core 4 members of the group have been together for over 11 years makes this possible. Having performed together for so many years also gives them the tightness that distinguishes them from any other group. Besides their unmistakeable talent, they enjoy themselves on stage so much that the feeling is contagious. Their fans become more like family and the vibe they give off becomes their own.

Friday, June 20 at 8 p.m. at 26 S. Chestnut St., in Ventura One of the great success stories of the 80’s, arrived on the dancehall scene and swiftly remodeled it in his own image. Although numerous DJ’s and vocalist would rise and fall during this decade, Levy was one of the few with staying power, and he continued releasing massive hits well into the 90’s. Born in Kingston, Jamaica, as a youngster, Barrington Levy formed the Mighty Multitude with his cousin Everton Dacres.Levy’s rich vocals were made for duets, both with other vocalists and DJ’s , and it wasn’t long before the star was also recording collaborative singles.
