As the inmates described it in an in-depth report and video from LA Weekly, the wing gives gay and transgender prisoners a chance to express themselves freely without worrying about the politics JAIL, See page 12A

By Tim Pompey If you’re a business or corporation with specialties in law, science, or finance, John Tarkany would like to talk to you. Tarkany, the Ventura County Office of Education’s coordinator for student competitions and fundraising, is currently seeking sponsors for the three major countywide
academic competitions in 2015—the Academic Decathlon, the Mock Trial and the Science Fair. These academic competitions have proven to be important to students throughout the county. Many teams have won state and national competitions, and some students by participating in these
events discover a whole new range of interests. It’s that discovery process that makes Tarkany’s job so interesting. “There’s a student on one of my videos,” he said, “that summed it up by saying that she was never part of sports, never part of a club. She said that if it wasn’t for this event (the mock trial competi-
tion) she never would have experienced that kind of teamwork and activity.” While Tarkany plans the competitions, he acknowledges that what makes it all possible are the events’ sponsors. “Ventura County students have a long, proud tradition of excellence in local, state and national academic SPONSORS, See page 12A
AG Holder Statement DARREN WILSON'S on the Grand Jury on grand jury testimony the Shooting of Michael Brown
WASHINGTON—Attorney General Eric Holder released the following statement Monday regarding the conclusion of the St. Louis County grand jury proceeding in the shooting of Michael Brown: “While the grand jury proceeding in St. Louis County has concluded, the Justice Department’s investigation into the shooting of Michael Brown remains ongoing. Though we have shared information with local prosecutors during the course of our investigation, the federal inquiry has been independent of the local one from the start, and remains so now. Even at this mature stage of the investigation, we have avoided prejudging any of the evidence. And although federal civil rights law imposes a high legal bar in these types of cases, we have resisted forming premature conclusions. “Michael Brown’s death was a tragedy. This incident has sparked a national conversation about the need to

Voices and View Points Thanksgiving is all about gratitude. Words to Live by
Dr. Lonnie G. McCowan, pastor of Miracle Center of Ventura
By Pastor Lonnie G. McCowan Anytime is a good time to give thanks for the good things we have in our lives, but so often we forget to do it. Fortunately, Thanksgiving Day is set aside for that very purpose. I want to take a moment to thank you for all of the ways that you contribute to the world with your powerful existence. You do powerful things every day to make the world a more loving place, in the littlest ways, with the littlest thoughts, you do this EVERYDAY. So thank you for being the wonderful, unique, powerful, being that you are. And thank you for allowing Kimberly and I to be a part of your world, whether it’s directly or indirectly, past or present, we want to say thanks a million for the magical moments, the moving miracles and the magnificent experiences you have given us. And we hope in some way we have touched you as well with a teaching, a
prayer, a kind word. One of my favorite hymns is “Count Your Blessings”. “When upon life’s billows you are tempest tossed. When you are discouraged, thinking all is lost. Count your many blessings, name them one by one. And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.” This American holiday stems from the feast held in the autumn of 1621 by the Plymouth Pilgrims and Wampanoag Indians to celebrate the colony’s first successful harvest and the new friendships that made that harvest possible. We must be thankful for the people who have come into our life and also thankful for the ones who have walked out of our life. No person in our life is by accident even if they don’t stay in our life long. Practice being grateful for the time they were in your life and cherish the memories and lessons. We are all somehow touched, shaped and moved by the friends, teachers, preachers, and prophets who have come in and out of our lives. Avoid the negative thoughts that come when people walk away from you. Consider this to be beneficial, as if your life is being pruned and cut away from the people that are no longer in harmony with the greater vision for your life. Paid Advertisement
Say your goodbyes gracefully understanding that they were only part of the journey not the journey its self. The bible says “Now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love”. I pray that we remember this Thanksgiving to prioritize the things that will always remain, to give thanks for unknown blessings already on their way and all the little things that add up to be enormous blessing, for every single soldier around the world. Many people travel far and wide to celebrate with loved ones; other people stay at home. But no matter where you will be gathering this year, remember to thank God for everything He’s done for you and your family. Every day, people everywhere want to start life over. They promise themselves that they will redo, change, shift, or reorder their way into a better existence. Even if life is good, we say, the possibility always exists of life getting better. The amazing news is that God wants us to have a great life. In fact, He wants us to live larger than life. But how do we do that? All too often, we think that living large means adding more and more to our already crowded plates. And so we’re always looking for THANKSGIVING, See page 12A

Freedom to Celebrate Gratitude The Mind Matters By Patricia Lynn Belkowitz, C.Ht., EFT-CC As a society, we set aside a day each year to gather, feast and be thankful. We are free to join the celebration in any way we see fit. On Thanksgiving Day, we each celebrate our own unique version of gratitude. Even though most homes will be feasting on turkey and all the trimmings, some will share lasagna or enchiladas or vegan fare. As we gather with our families and friends, we are also free to be kind and loving or to be angry and resentful. Holiday get-togethers in close quarters have been known to be experiences which range anywhere from wonderful to disastrous. To help you with the upcoming holiday season, I’d like to share some thoughts about freedom which may make you think about your ac-
tions and reactions. May you have the freedom to be present in the moment and be able to see and hear what is going on right now. May you be free to let go of the judgment of what should be or what used to be or what may be. Often when we gather as adult children, we revert to childish behavior because of buttons which are pushed by our parents or siblings. Ex-spouses and blended families add layers of emotional triggers. The past is over. Think about who you are now and act accordingly. May you have the freedom to speak your truth and say what you think. May you be free to let go of concerns about what anyone else thinks about your truth. Remember that it’s okay to let others know what you think. Your

thoughts are important. If you don’t value them, why would anyone else? May you have the freedom to feel your true emotions without fear. May you be free to let go of beliefs about what anyone else feels about your feelings. Your feelings are important. The more you express your feelings, the more confident you become.

Choose Peace
Inez Knows
Inez Lanns
By Inez Lanns Everyone says they like and desire peace. And many people claim to be peaceful people but are far from it. Nations fight for peace. If peace is something the majority desires why isn’t it plentiful? Due to different points of view, I started to wonder if peace is a matter of perception and varies from person to person or if peace is simply peace straight across the board. It seems like those that have truly found the path to true
peace are the minority. Here is the definition of peace according to dictionary.com: Peace [pees] - a state of mutual harmony between people or groups, especially in personal relations: “Try to live in peace with your neighbors.” Freedom of the mind from annoyance, distraction, anxiety, an obsession, etc.; tranquility; serenity. A state of tranquility or serenity: “May he rest in peace.” When I envision peace, I think of harmony and a complete absence from anything negative or stressful. You have to be able to recognize what peace looks like in order to really get to know it. And you have to really get to know peace in order for you to be a person who can produce it. One person’s “norm” can be very uncomfortable for another. Peace is foreign to some people. One thing that I am learning is that a person
who has never experienced true peace can be very uncomfortable around peaceful people or in peaceful environments. Some people have experienced nothing but mess and/or drama their entire lives, so they have no idea of what a peaceful environment looks like. Also, when a person like that gets into a peaceful place it feels so unusual to them so they feel like they don’t belong in that. They may even create discord because peace may bore them or simply just doesn’t feel right to them. I have heard people say that peace is a power position, and I believe that it truly is. It is much better to be in a place of authentic peace because having real peace means you can remain that way when everything around you is going crazy. It also means when you make decisions or do things that the words and thoughts of PEACE, See page 12A

Soldier surprises WILL WE LINE UP TO SIGN UP? her daughter for Thanksgiving
By Sara Lim COLUMBUS, GA - This Thanksgiving is going to be a day of celebration for one Columbus family. People cheered and welcomed their loved ones at the Columbus Airport as a few soldiers returned home from Afghanistan Sunday at around 11:15 a.m. Sgt. Alex Kinley with the 803rd
Company was deployed to Afghanistan in May 2014, and she was expected to return home next year. However, Sgt. Kinley and others were told their mission ended earlier than expected, so some soldiers were able to return home for the holiday season. Sgt. Kinley's 7-year-old daughter, Kaydence, has been living
with her grandmother ever since Sgt. Kinley left in May. "My mom's coming back," Kaydence explained. "I just don't know when but she said she'll pop up someday." When asked where her mother was, Kaydence said she was in a far away country called Afghanistan. Still too young to truly understand her mother's job, Kaydence explained her mother is in the Army. "I don't know what she's doing there but I know she's working right now," Kaydence said. Kaydence's grandmother Felecia Kelly told Kaydence the two were at the Columbus Airport to pick up her cousin for Thanksgiving. "Kaydence doesn't know anything," Kelly said. "She's going to be so happy because she's been asking about her mother." The two had been waiting in the airport since 10:40 a.m. with other families who were waiting for their loved ones in the 803rd Company to return home. Once the clock hit 11:15 a.m. people started to eagerly gather around the gate with cards and balloons. "I'm so excited for Kaydence," Kelly said. "I'm going SOLDIER, See page 12A

From page 1A Covered California. One day before the new enrollment period opened on Nov. 15, California Endowment President/CEO Dr. Robert Ross spoke candidly about the topic while touring the Eisner Family & Pediatric Medical Center in downtown Los Angeles. The center is located in South Los Angeles and provides services for underserved communities. “Quite frankly, for the African-American community in particular, we should not rest until we have 100 percent of African-Americans enrolled, because most of them don’t have the
immigration or documentation problems — they are citizens,” said Ross, who also sits on the Covered California board. “And they should be eligible for a program. So we have to find them and get them in.” The initial Covered California enrollment period, which concluded in March, delivered results that disappointed Black community advocates, who had hoped to see larger numbers of African-Americans enrolled. At seven percent of the state’s population, with an uninsured rate estimated at 17 percent, Blacks comprised only about three percent of the 3.4 million Cov-
ered California enrollees, with Latinos, Asians and Whites enrolled in much greater numbers. Noting the dramatic disparities, Black lawmakers and others decried what they saw as Covered California’s lack of effective, consistent outreach in the AfricanAmerican community. Ross believes that a lack of trust in the American healthcare system is one of the reasons Blacks may be hesitant to sign up for government-backed coverage. “The American medical healthcare system has not been particularly kind to the African-American SIGN UP, See page 12A

Tiger Woods is Very Angry LeBron James Won't Let About Golf Digest's Very Fake His Kids Play Football Satirical 'Interview' with Him By Chris Greenberg Tiger Woods likes to think he has a good sense of humor. Woods likes to think he is willing to laugh at himself. With an angry rebuke of Golf Digest for a piece of satire in its latest issue, he may have ensured that no one else will think either of those things. Incensed by a piece entitled "My (Fake) Interview With Tiger," by award-winning sportswriter and author Dan Jenkins, that appears in the magazine's December issue, Woods vented on The Players' Tribune, a website founded by former New York Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter to give athletes a forum for communicating directly with fans. Woods slammed the satirical imagined conversation as a "grudge-fueled piece of character assassination" and questioned the integrity of Jenkins, inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 2012, and the magazine. Jenkins, 84, has been a longtime critic of Woods, according to ESPN. "Journalistically and ethically, can you sink any lower?" Woods asked in his lengthy takedown of the piece titled "Not True, Not Funny." In an apparent attempt to have some fun at the expense of the 14-time major winner, Jenkins' fictitious chat touched on Woods' off-course controversies and his history of working
Tiger Woods
with -- and firing -- various coaches. Woods made it very clear that he did not approve of the faux interview format and took offense to the content of the story. "I like to think I have a good sense of humor, and that I’m more than willing to laugh at myself. In this game, you have to. I’ve been playing golf for a long time, 20 years on the PGA Tour. I’ve given lots of interviews to journalists in all that time, more than
I could count, and some have been good and some not so much. All athletes know that we will be under scrutiny from the media," Woods wrote. "But this concocted article was below the belt. Good-natured satire is one thing, but no fair-minded writer would put someone in the position of having to publicly deny that he mistreats his friends, takes pleasure in firing people, and stiffs on tips -- and a lot of other slurs, too."
By Ron Dicker LeBron James loves to watch football and even played it in high school. But when it comes to his kids, it's a whole different ballgame. The basketball great told ESPN.com that he does not let his sons, LeBron Jr. and Bryce Maximus, play football because of health dangers. "Only basketball, baseball and soccer are allowed in my house," James said. LeBron Jr., 10, is already lighting up peewee hoops. Bryce Maximus, 7, plays soccer, among other sports. James also has a daughter, Zhuri, who was born in October. As noted by For The Win, James joins other prominent athletes, such as Arian Foster and Kurt Warner, who have said they don't want their kids in the sport. Joe Namath, who has two adult daughters, has said he understood parents' reluctance. Even President Obama has weighed in on the matter, telling the New Republic last year, "I have to tell you if I had a son, I’d have to think long and hard be-

fore I let him play football.” According to reports, participation in both Pop Warner and high school football dropped significantly following heightened concerns about the effect of head injuries. ESPN Radio host and former NFL lineman Mike Golic reacted Wednesday to James' desire to keep his kids out of football, saying: Football, to me, especially at the youth league ...
is as safe as it's ever been. There is such a premium now on playing football, on concussion awareness, on equipment fitting, on proper tackling. ... The next generation of our players are going to tackle better and have better fundamentals and technique. And hopefully ... not get hurt. Golic did note, however, that new techniques and training wouldn't necessarily "get rid of all injuries."

The Obama administration is inviting states to apply to renew their waivers from the No Child Left Behind Act. And according to guidance issued, these renewed waivers could last all the way through the 20182019 school year -- locking down some of President Barack Obama's education policy changes well into the next presidency. The new guidelines don't radically change the criteria for escaping the law's strictures. According to an Education Depart-

ment document, states will have to ensure that schools cannot receive top ratings for accountability if they are not closing "significant achievement or graduation rate gaps" between different groups of students. Some states have struggled to keep promises they made under the 2011 waiver guidelines to improve lowperforming schools. Under the new guidance, states must update their lists of such schools "to ensure that interventions are being implemented in the lowest-
performing schools." Beyond that, a state must continue to show "how it will continue to ensure all students graduate from high school ready for college and a career, through implementation of college- and career-ready standards and high-quality aligned assessments," the new guidelines say. Many states have satisfied this waiver requirement by adopting the Common Core State Standards, a controversial set of learning WAIVER, See page 12A

By Cain Burdeau NEW ORLEANS -Civil rights pioneer Ruby Bridges says America today looks a lot like the world she helped break apart 54 years ago: A nation with segregated schools and racial tension. "You almost feel like you're back in the `60s," said Bridges, who is now 60 years old. "The conversation across the country, and it doesn't leave out New Orleans, is that schools are reverting back" to being segregated along racial lines, she said. "We all know that there are schools being segregated again." On November 14, 1960, Bridges -- then 6 years old -- became the first black student to attend a previously all-white elementary school in New Orleans. On Friday, November 14 -- 54 years later to the day when she first walked
up the steps to William Frantz Elementary School -- she commemorates that event with the unveiling of a statue in her likeness at her old school. Also, she is reuniting with the white teacher who taught her and with the sole-surviving U.S. marshal who walked her to school. Her mother, who was adamant about sending her daughter to the
all-white school, will be at the reunion too. Bridges said racism remains painfully real today. She pointed to the tense events in Ferguson, Missouri, after a police officer shot and killed an unarmed black man, revelations about racist comments made by owners in the National Basketball Association and how so many American schools have failed to become racially mixed. Back in 1960, Bridges, flanked by U.S. marshals, had to walk past a mob of jeering segregationist protesters and Confederate flags to enter her school. One woman shouted threats to poison her. Another woman showed up at protests with a coffin with a black baby doll in it. All the white students at the school were pulled from classes and teachers quit -- leaving Bridges as the school's only student.
CAMARILLO, CA – Ventura County middle and high schools have a unique opportunity to bring robotics education programs to their students with no up-front equipment costs. The Ventura County Office of Education and the Robotics Education & Competition (REC) Foundation have joined forces to provide VEX Robotics Classroom and Competition Super Kit grants to the first 30 eligible schools to respond. The VEX Robotics Design System offers students an exciting platform for learning about areas rich with career opportunities that span science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). Beyond science and engineering princi-
ples, a VEX Robotics project encourages teamwork, leadership and problemsolving among groups. It also allows educators to easily customize projects to meet the students’ skill level. Each kit is valued at $1,200 and combines both the mechatronics and programming add-on kits for the ultimate robotics learning and building experience. Students can design complex mechanisms with the included mechanical components and use the included sensors to increase robot feedback and create advanced programs. Most public and private middle and high schools in Ventura County may apply for the grant. However, schools that are current
participants in the VEX IQ, VRC, or VEX U programs are not eligible. Additionally, schools that have received prior funding from the REC Foundation are not eligible, whether or not they are currently competing. Grants will be awarded to the first 30 eligible schools that apply in the order applications are received. Participating schools will have the opportunity to exhibit their work at the Robotics Showcase at the 2015 Ventura County Science Fair on April 1.

SANTA BARBARA– Assemblymember Das Williams (D – Carpinteria), Chair of the Assembly Higher Education Committee, and Senator Hannah-Beth Jackson (D – Santa Barbara), incoming Chair of the Legislative Women’s Caucus, organized a roundtable discussion on strengthening education and prevention programs, improving the handling of sexual assault complaints, and expanding resources for survivors at UC Santa Barbara. “Sexual violence is a devastating problem that impacts the lives of women, men, and children,” said Assemblymember Williams. “These crimes often go unreported on college campuses; in large part due
to the victim's belief that authorities will not take action. We must ensure that our campuses are offering support and resources, investigating crimes, and prosecuting perpetrators in order to get the true magnitude of the problem.” An estimated one in five women will experience a sexual assault during their college career. In the vast majority of these assaults, the perpetrator and the victim know each other. Research suggests that less than 5% of these incidents will be reported to law enforcement. On June 30, 2014, the Assembly Higher Education Committee held a joint oversight hearing to
review compliance with federal sexual harassment laws at California's public universities; there was overwhelming consensus that campuses can and should do more to protect students from sexual assault. As Chair of the committee, Assemblymember Williams committed at that hearing to ongoing monitoring of campus actions. This is the second roundtable discussion being conducted at a UC Campus. The first roundtable to review campus progress took place at UC Berkeley in September. UC Santa Barbara and UC Berkeley efforts are evident, but student voices asking for justice have proved to be louder.
Congresswoman Julia Brownley (D-Westlake Village) and her colleagues have spearheaded a letter to the House Armed Services Committee asking to retain language from the House-passed National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) to ensure continued state control of Modular Airborne Fire Fighting System (MAFFS) aircraft. The Department of Defense has proposed to shift MAFFS control to the federal government, which would prevent the governor from utilizing MAFFS to fight fires in California. Instead, the governors would need to request this aid from the DOD, potentially delaying critical firefighting air support and impacting the continuity of pay and benefits for MAFFS units. For more than 40 years, the MAFFS has been performing this mission under Title 32, which has provided

needed flexibility for the states. Since coming to Congress, Brownley has been working with her colleagues from California, Colorado, and North Carolina, which also have MAFFS units, to retain state control. “In California, we know all too well the devastating effects of wildfires on our homes and businesses, and I strongly believe we must
ensure that state governors retain the authority to utilize all available firefighting resources, including the MAFFS aircraft at Point Mugu,” said Congresswoman Brownley. “Shifting control of MAFFS crews away from the state to the federal government may jeopardize California’s ability to quickly utilize these aircraft during fire seasons.” “Rep. Brownley knows just how critical our aerial firefighting assets are for California, especially Ventura County, which is home to four of the twenty largest fires in California history,” said Maj. Gen. David S. Baldwin, Adjutant General of the California National Guard. “Today’s action by Rep. Brownley shows she understands that California must have the freedom to fight all fires in a timely, effective manner if we are to successfully protect the health and safety of all Californians. We are grateful for her efforts."

By Brian Melley LOS ANGELES — The Los Angeles school district removed a lawyer who successfully defended it in a sexual abuse lawsuit in which he told jurors that a 14-year-old girl who had sex with a male teacher shared responsibility despite her age. The trial victory spared the cash-strapped district a potentially pricey verdict, but news of the trial strategy and remarks by attorney W. Keith Wyatt that it was a more dangerous decision to cross the street than to have sex with a teacher drew criticism. "Mr. Wyatt's comments yesterday were completely inappropriate, and they undermine the spirit of the environment we strive to offer our students every day," Dave Holmquist, general counsel for the school district, said in a statement. "Our deepest apologies go out to the young woman and her family, who were hurt by the insensitive remarks of Mr. Wyatt." Wyatt, who had worked with the district through an outside firm for 27 years
and had 18 cases pending, would not comment. The girl who lost the case is appealing because the judge allowed evidence of her sexual history to be presented and because Wyatt blamed her for consenting to the sex even though she was too young to do so. "She lied to her mother so she could have sex with her teacher," Wyatt had told KPCC, which first reported the story. "She went to a motel in which she engaged in voluntary consensual sex with her teacher. Why shouldn't she be responsible for that? The teacher in the case, Elkis Hermida, was sentenced in 2011 to three years in prison for lewd acts against a child. The Los Angeles Unified School District claimed it was unaware of the relationship between the teacher and student and was cleared last year of wrongdoing by a civil jury in Los Angeles Superior Court. The girl was not awarded damages for the emotional trauma she said she suffered during a five-month relationship with the teacher.

National News Judge to Allow Prior Abuse Allegations in Marissa Alexander’s Retrial
By Lynette Holloway In a move that could bolster 34-year-old Marissa Alexander’s case, a judge ruled that evidence of prior alleged acts of domestic violence against other women by her estranged husband would be allowed at her December retrial, First Coast News reports. Circuit Judge James Daniel stipulated certain conditions in the ruling, including requiring Alexander to testify about Rico Gray’s abusive treatment, the news service writes. Her testimony would set the stage for defense attorneys to call an ex-wife and two former girlfriends of Gray’s—all of whom say

he was abusive and whom Gray previously admitted abusing, the report says. The judge, however, expressed some concern
about allowing the testimony and placed limits on it. He also limited the number of people who can testify to a specific act of abuse, First Coast says. He said that any testimony on prior abuse must be used to show a pattern of behavior, not simply to demonstrate bad character or propensity to violence, the report says. The testimony could shore up Alexander’s case. She was convicted and sentenced in 2012 to 20 years in prison for firing a warning shot during a confrontation with Gray. The conviction was overturned on appeal, reports say. Now Florida State Attorney Angela Corey is seeking ALEXANDER, See page 12A
Teary Mom Allegedly Spent Donations on 'Baby Daddy's Rap Album'
By Andy Campbell Arizona mom Shanesha Taylor could have avoided jail time had she spent money donated to her by supporters on her children. Now prosecutors say the Arizona mom spent $114,000 in money donated to her on trivial things, including studio time for "her baby daddy's rap album," a former supporter told the New York Daily News. Taylor, 43, was charged with felony abuse earlier this year after she left her two young children in the car while she went on a job interview. She was homeless at the time, and said she had no means of caring for her 2-year-old and 6-yearold. Her story circulated, and some 4,000 people donated more than $114,700 in
Suicide Bomber Dressed as Student Kills 48 at All-Boys Public School
Special to the NNPA from the Global Information Network (GIN) — As Americans honored their veterans in a national day of parades and ceremony, Nigerians were grieving over a war with terrorists, who are now slaughtering children with suicide bombs. Schools have become the frontlines of the war waged by Boko Haram against Nigerian security forces. As Boko Haram occupies more villages in the country’s north, they claim to be building an Islamist state, one in which boys’ education would be limited to Koranic schools and Islamic universities, and girls would stay home and get married. Monday, in the town of Potiskum in Yobe State, students were lining up at the all-boys Government Comprehensive Senior Science Secondary School. The attacker was disguised as a student in a school uniform. The blast, set off when the youthful bomber was questioned by a teacher, killed 48 people, mostly young children, according to hospital and morgue officials. Two teachers were among the dead, and 79 were injured, some critically. This bombing was only the latest in a series, however, of attacks on schoolboys and male college students that began in 2013.
a crowdfunding campaign to help out her family. Prosecutors in Phoenix said she could avoid jail time if she put $40,000 of that donated money into a trust fund for her children. But there's no indication that she ever did.
In fact, her charges were reinstated for failing to meet her deadline, which was imposed by a judge. Prosecutors say she was spending more than $4,000 a month on non-essential items, and a civil rights leader who helped raise money for her has changed his tune. "We had someone call my office and alert her attorney to the fact that she spent $6,000 at a music studio in Tempe to finish her baby daddy's rap album," Reverend Jarrett Maupin told ABC-15. "That's not what people gave her that money for." Taylor denies the allegations, though it's still unclear where the money went. She's reportedly trying to raise money again. She's due back in court in December.
cants, prospective students and parents. "Racial preferences are a dangerous tool and may only be used as a last resort." Both universities defended their admission policies, noting that they are fully compliant with federal law. "(T)he university continues to affirm the educational benefits diversity brings to students, as well as the importance of preparing students for a diverse society and assuring a pool of strong state leaders by admitting undergraduates from every background," said UNC-Chapel Hill spokesman Rick White. Harvard University's General Counsel Robert Iuliano pointed out that the Supreme Court's landmark 1978 decision in Regents of University of California v. Bakke, which upheld affirmative action, specifically cited Harvard's admissions plan as a "legally sound approach" to admissions. The lawsuits conclude that “race neutral” policies -- such as giving greater consideration to a prospective student’s socio-economic background and boosting financial aid, scholarships and minority candidate recruitment efforts -- can promote diversity better than affirmative action.
From page 1A Brown had bright yellow socks on that had green marijuana leaves as a pattern on them ... As Johnson came around my driver’s side mirror I said, ‘why don’t you guys walk on the sidewalk.’ He kept walking, as he is walking he said, ‘we are almost to our destination.” ... Brown was starting to come around the mirror and as he came around the mirror I said, ‘well, what’s wrong with the sidewalk.’ Brown then replied ... ‘fuck what you have to say.’ And when he said that, it drew my attention totally to Brown. It was a very unusual and not expected response from a simple request .... First thing I notice is in his right hand, his hand is full of Cigarillos. And that’s when it clicked for me ... I did a doublecheck that Johnson was wearing a black shirt, these are the two from the stealing ... I got on my radio and Frank 21 is my call sign that day, i said Frank 21 I’m on Canfield with two, send me another car. I then placed my car in reverse and backed up ... the back of my vehicle to cut them off ... I go to open the door and I say, hey, come here for a minute to Brown. As I’m opening the door he turns, faces me, looks at me and says, ‘what the (expletive) are you going to do about it,’ and shuts my door, slammed it shut ... he was just staring at me, almost like to intimidate me or to overpower me. The intense face he has was just not what i expected ... I then opened my door again and used my door to push him backwards ... i tell him to ‘get the (expletive) back’ ... He then grabs my door again and shuts my door. At that time is when i saw him coming into my vehicle. His head was higher than the top of my car. And I see him ducking and as he is ducking, his hands are up and he is coming in my vehicle ... I don’t remember seeing him come at me, but I was hit right here in the side of the face with a fist ... i think it was a full-on swing, but not a full shot ... significant amount of contact that was made to my face ... i believe it was his right hand ...He turns like this and now the Cigarillos i see in his left hand ... he reaches back and he says, ‘hey man, hold these.” I’m assuming to Johnson but I couldn’t see Johnson ... at that point i tried to hold his right arm and use my left hand to get out to have some type of control and not be trapped in my car any more. And when i grabbed him, the only way I can describe it is I felt like a 5 year old holding onto Hulk Hogan ... I see his hand coming back around like this and he hit me with this part of his right hand ... next thing I remember is how do I get this guy away from me.

Newspaper accounts of a massacre in Yobe state told of students locked in their dormitories and burned alive, shot in their beds, blown up or having their throats cut. “We were waiting for the principal to address us, around 7:30 a.m., when we heard a deafening sound and I was blown off my feet,” Musa Ibrahim Yahaya, 17, told the Associated Press from his hospital bed. “People started screaming and running. I saw blood all over my body.” “The explosions flung students at the center of the blast in all directions,” said another student in a telephone interview. “It also sent many of us reeling on the ground. I found myself under the weight of another student who fell over me. I’m certain he was dead.” “It was confusion all over,” he said. “Everybody was hysterical.” After the bombing, Adamu Ibrahim said he and other students with minor injuries ran home. “When my father, who was sitting outside the house, saw me, he was terrified,” Ibrahim said. “I didn’t realize my white school uniform was stained with human blood and bits of flesh. I’m all right, except for the pains in my ears from the thunderous blast. My ears hurt and a humming sound per-
sists inside.” He said the school was poorly secured, with no fence, making it an easy target. Education levels in northern Nigeria are lower than in other parts of the country, and state governments have been forced to close schools in some areas because of frequent terrorist attacks. Only 28 percent of children in the northern state of Borno attend school, according to government statistics, and the literacy rate in the north is 32 percent, compared with the 68 percent national average. Meanwhile, the U.S. came in for blistering criticism from Nigeria’s ambassador to the U.S., who condemned Washington for refusing to sell his government “lethal” weapons to fight militant Islamists. Nigeria needed support to deliver the “killer punch,” not “light jabs,” against the Boko Haram group, Adebowale Ibidapo Adefuye told members of the Washington-based Council on Foreign Relations. U.S. laws ban the sale of lethal weapons to countries whose military are accused of gross human rights abuses, and Nigeria’s government soldiers have been accused by rights groups of carrying out many atrocities, including torturing and executing suspects.
DARREN WILSON'S grand jury testimony Harvard And UNC Sued Over Race-Based Admission Policies By Philip Marcelo BOSTON -- Lawsuits filed against Harvard University and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill argue that affirmative action policies should be banned at colleges across the nation. The federal suits allege Harvard and UNC rely on race-based affirmative action policies that impact admissions of high-achieving white and Asian American students. The Harvard lawsuit also contends that the Ivy League university specifically limits the number of Asian Americans it admits each year. The Project on Fair Representation, an Alexandria, Virginia-based legal defense fund, said the filings will be the first in a series of legal challenges against colleges across the country in an effort to ban race-based admission policies outright. "Allowing this issue to be litigated in case after case will only perpetuate the hostilities that proper consideration of race is designed to avoid," state the lawsuits, both of which cite "Students for Fair Admissions" as plaintiff, a nonprofit group based in Austin, Texas made up of recently rejected appli-
What do I do not to get beaten inside my car ... I considered using my mace, however, i wasn’t willing to sacrifice my left hand, which is blocking my face ... I wear contacts, if that touches any part of my eyes, then I can’t see at all ... The whole time, I can’t tell you if he was swinging at me or grabbing me or pushing me or what, but there was just stuff going on ... Next I considered my flashlight ... (but) would it even be effective ... So the only other option I thought I had was my gun. I drew my gun, I turned ... He is standing there. I said, ‘get back or I’m going to shoot you.’ He immediately grabs my gun and says, ‘you are too much of a pussy to shoot me.’ ... My gun was basically pointed this way ... but he grabs it with his right one and he twists it and then he digs it down into my hip ... I felt that another one of those punches in my face could knock me out or worse ... I’ve already taken two to the face and I didn’t think I would, the third one could be fatal if he hit me right ... (Wilson is shown pictures of himself at the hospital on August 9th and asked why he went to the hospital) For my face being swollen ... They had discovered there that i had scratches on the back of my neck ... I had a swollen right cheek, my left they said was swollen, I had scratches around my hairline in the back and I think on the side of my neck, but that’s all I remember ... (Wilson points out the photos showing swelling) ... It is hard to tell from the pictures and that angle. I think the best one was looking straight forward at me ... (Wilson goes back to how the gun was pointed down at his hip) I can feel his fingers try to get inside the trigger guard with my finger and I distinctly remember envisioning a bullet going into my leg ... when I slid, I let him use his momentum to push it down and it was kind of pointed to where the seat buckle would attach on the floorboard on the side of my car ... When I did get it up to this point, he is still holding onto it and i pulled the trigger and nothing happens, it just clicked. I pull it again, it just clicked again. At this point I’m like why isn’t this working, this guy is going to kill me ... I pulled it a third time, it goes off ... it shot through my door panel and my window was down and glass flew out of my door panel ... When i see the glass come up, it comes, a chunk about that big comes across my right hand and then I notice I have blood on the back of my hand ... i looked at him ... he kind of stepped back ... he looked up at me and had the most intense aggressive face ... it looks like a demon, that’s how angry he looked. He comes back towards me again with his hands up. At that point I just went like this, i tried to pull the trigger again, click, nothing happened ... I just saw his hands up, i don’t know if they were closed yet, on the way to going closed, WILSON, See page 12A

What You Need to Know Before Reading New Social Security Statements
By Jason Alderman
No matter how far away you are from retirement, it’s important to understand your Social Security benefits – and there’s a particularly good reason to do it now. The Social Security Administration (SSA) is bringing back annual paper benefits statements for the first time in three years. It stopped in 2011 to save money on printing and postage, but Congress and consumer advocates complained that workers needed better access to their data. In September, the agency reversed its decision and announced it’s resuming the practice of mailing paper statements to workers in two categories: • Those who are not receiving benefits and are within three months of turning 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, and 60. (After age 60, workers will receive a statement every year.) • Those who still haven’t registered for a My Social
Security (www.ssa.gov/myaccount/) online account. Why is this important? First, if you’ve paid into the Social Security and Medicare system, you should understand the benefits you’ve earned. Second, as the SSA has been closing field offices and reducing services to the public, despite the fact that Baby Boomers are starting to flood the system. It’s a good time to confirm and correct benefits due to the longer wait times on the agency’s toll free telephone line and field offices. Start by waiting for your next paper benefits statement or sign up at My Social Security website to review your current data. Here’s a quick overview of what your statement tells you: • Introduction and your estimated benefits. This section covers four categories. The first is your retirement benefits, which are based on your age when you start drawing them. The calculations are
based on three critical ages as examples: 62 (the earliest age you can draw retirement benefits), 67 (the full retirement age for anyone born after 1960) and age 70 (the oldest anyone can start drawing benefits, generally at the highest level if you can wait). The second is disability, which refers to the amount of your monthly disability benefit if you qualify. Third, your family/survivors benefits if a loved one dies. And lastly, your Medicare eligibility and the particular facts to support that conclusion. • Your Earnings Record. This is a summary of your earnings that you need to verify for accuracy. Pull your annual tax returns as far back as you can to confirm this information, and if SECURITY, See page 12A
Welcome Your Holiday Guests With Inviting Lighting
(NewsUSA) - Everyone is starting to spruce up their homes for holiday entertaining. According to the American Lighting Association (ALA), it's easy to make your home warm and inviting by updating your ambient lighting. Start with the exterior. The holidays typically involve gatherings, which means your outside lighting is an important element for giving your home a welcoming feel. "Landscape lighting can solve a lot of different problems," says Joe Rey-Barreau, education consultant for the ALA and associate professor at the University of Kentucky's School of Interior Design. Rey-Barreau says this can include path lighting to direct guests to your home, and suggests you consider LED lighting, which is energy efficient and has a long lifespan. Brent Protzman, manager of energy information and analytics at Lutron Electronics, also offers some exterior lighting tips. "To create a magnetic,
inviting exterior, first provide general facade illumination to highlight the form of your home's exterior and avoid dark areas near the main entrance," Protzman says. "Adding landscape lighting to trees, shrubs and walkways is also welcoming." Welcome guests as they enter. Given the colder temperatures and snow, your guests will spend some time in your entryway to peel off winter coats and boots. With this in mind, you do not want them fumbling around in the dark. Rick Wiedemer, president of Hinkley Lighting, says
your foyer should always have a central fixture. "For a two-story foyer, use a large hanging fixture," Wiedemer says. "A one-story foyer is going to have a nice flush or semiflush decorative piece." Protzman and Rey-Barreau both suggest installing dimmers as well. "Having the entry lighting too intense can be uncomfortable after coming in from a dark exterior," Protzman says. "Consider using a dimmer in an entryway to cut the intensity at night and reduce potential glare and discomfort." LIGHTING, See page 12A
Housing Rights Center to Host Free Workshop in Oxnard LOS ANGELES, CA – The Housing Rights Center (HRC) and the City of Oxnard, will be hosting a FREE ‘Housing Rights Workshop’ for Oxnard residents and community members on Monday, December 1, 2014, from 6:00pm – 8:00pm at the Oxnard Main Library, Meeting Room ‘B’, located at 251 South ‘A’ Street, Oxnard, CA 93030.

Microsoft Corp issued patches recently to fix a bug in its Windows operating system that remained undiscovered for 19 years. The bug, which is present in every version of Microsoft Windows from Windows 95 onward, allows an attacker to remotely take over and control a computer. IBM Corp's cybersecurity research team discovered the bug in May, describing it as a "significant vulnerability" in the operating system. "The buggy code is at least 19 years old and has been remotely exploitable for the past 18 years," IBM X-Force research team said in its blog.
YouTube Announces Paid Streaming Music Service
By Alexis Kleinman YouTube announced that it is launching an adfree subscription music service called YouTube Music Key for both desktop and mobile. If you're interested, you can sign up to receive an email notification when the service becomes more widely available. On top of being ad-free, YouTube Music Key will let you to play music on your phone while using other apps and listen offline. The service will cost $7.99 a month to start, but the price will eventually go up to $9.99 a month, YouTube says. With that, you'll also get a subscription to Google Play Music (formerly Google Play Music All Access). If you sign up while it's still in beta, your first six months are free. Spotify Premium costs $9.99 a month, if you were wondering.
Unlike Spotify, YouTube Music Key will have a few Taylor Swift songs. Right now, you can listen to "Shake It Off" and "Blank Space" on YouTube. Starting Wednesday, YouTube also will have a dedicated tab for music
both on desktop and on the app for Android and iOS. Here's what the app's music section looks like: The updated YouTube app is coming out on Android, and the iOS app will follow "soon," The Verge reports.
By Damon Beres One of the world's biggest technology companies wants to help you be a better human -- as long as you let it read your email. A new feature launching Wednesday in an updated version of the search giant's Android app will automatically keep track of casual invitations in your Gmail inbox so you don't miss them. Here's what that means: If you get an email from a friend asking if you want to grab dinner next Thursday at 7 p.m., the updated version of Google Now will recognize it as an invitation. It will then prompt you to add the plan to your calendar, and will display reminders for you. This feature will continuously look through your Gmail inbox for invitations like this that you haven't yet put on your calendar -- "half-baked plans," as a Google representative described them to The Huffington Post -- and ask you about them. Aside from the "halfbaked plans" feature, the new update to the Google app will include a few other things for users to play with. On Android devices running the new Lollipop operating system, the app will have a fresh look and will, on certain devices, respond when you say "OK
Google" out loud. All Android users will have access to a new search feature that interacts with other apps -so you can, for example, ask your phone to search on Tumblr for something, and it'll know to use your Tumblr app. Google also hasn't forgotten about its iOS users: Though other features are Android-only, the app update also will include a cross-platform "coin flip" feature, so you can say "OK Google, flip a coin" and it will... do that. Awesome? The app overhaul -- particularly the "half-baked plans" feature -- marks the latest in a series of updates from Google that aim to anticipate your needs and handle tedious scheduling or other work without you having to get directly involved. For instance, if you've enabled the Google Now service and search for
Chicago Bears tickets, you can expect the app to automatically provide scores for completed games, as well as dates for upcoming ones, from that point forward. Convenient though the automated data collection may be, it doesn't come without certain privacy concerns. Following Google's acquisition of Nest -- a company that makes "smart" home electronics, such as a thermostat that "programs itself" based on your habits -- critics have voiced concerns about what have been described as the tech giant's increasing "surveillance" capabilities. Google faced a lawsuit last year over accusations that the company scans its users' Gmail accounts to serve advertisements. Earlier this year, a judge ruled that the case could not proceed as a class action, however -- a win for Google.

Senior Living:
Five Important Tips for Choosing a Medicare Health Plan (NewsUSA) - As baby boomers retire in record numbers -- 10,000 Americans a day -- more seniors than ever will be asking themselves, "How do I choose a Medicare health plan that's right for me?" "Seniors should look for a high-quality health plan that has a team of doctors and specialists, who work together to coordinate your care and keep you healthy," said Patrick Courneya, M.D., medical director, Kaiser Permanente Medicare Health Plans. Dr. Courneya offers these five important tips to help older adults make an informed decision for a healthy future: 1. Know when to enroll. Anyone who first becomes eligible for Medicare as they turn 65 can enroll during the three-month period before or after their 65th birthday. Those who choose to enroll after this window of time may pay a late-enrollment penalty. Medicare-eligible members may join or change plans during open enrollment from Oct. 15 to Dec. 7 each year, or they can join a Medicare five-star

Medicare is the national health insurance program that began in 1965 and covers millions of Americans who are 65 and older, and those with certain disabilities. Medicare Advantage plans are offered by private organizations and approved by Medicare. Some Medicare Advantage plans offer extra benefits such as vision. Enrollment trends show that nearly one in three people who have
Medicare are enrolled in a Medicare Advantage plan. 3. Confirm health plan doctors accept new Medicare members. Choose a Medicare health plan that offers a network of doctors and specialists who accept new Medicare members. Some physicians are opting out of caring for Medicare members. Also, keep in mind, as Medicare members age, they may need access to more specialists who accept Medicare members. 4. Use the Medicare 5-star Quality Ratings Tool.

Starting A Business After 50:
Here's What Not to Do
The allure of starting a business is strong. That's part of the American dream for many, especially those in their 50s and older who are looking to leave their lifelong jobs in the corporate world or retire from a small-to-midsize company. The reality is that 27 percent of start up businesses fail within the first year and are at continued risk after that first year. Two decades ago, 20 percent of businesses that went under after a year, a reflection of the increased risk these days. For those over 50 who've saved for their retirement, the last thing they want to do is put their savings and investments at risk. They need a plan. One of those options is buying an existing business to take out some of the risk because companies in business for 15 years haven't seen their risk of failure increase over the years, says Tensie Homan, the former managing director of KPMG's Denver office and co-author of Beat the Exit Bubble: The Ultimate Guide for Exiting Your Business. If you
want the stability and don't want to worry about losing money on a startup, look at an established business as your best bet, she says. Homan says the opportunities are abundant with five million baby boomer business owners exciting over the next five years and ten million over the next 10 to 15 years. People retiring from their careers and moving into the next phase of their life, need to ask themselves the right questions and get the right answers on whether to start up a new business or buy one, she says. "That's a lot of businesses that are going to be up for sale and there are
a lot of opportunities for someone to come in and take on those businesses," Homan says. "Before they make that decision, I think it's important they understand what are they trying to achieve with starting a new business." What are some of those questions people should ask, according to Homan? • Are they looking for a steady income? • Do they want to replace income they had before? • Are they looking for something that's full time-something they can really spend time on or would they prefer to have a management team in place where they can in and start managing that team? • Are they pursuing what they're passionate about or are they just thinking it would be great not to have to work for someone again? Homan says many times people say this is what I want to do, but you may be able to buy an existing business and take something that's close to what you want and eventually transform that while you have cash flow coming from it.

Medicare to Cover Lung Cancer Screening for Older Smokers
By Candy Sagon In a move that could affect an estimated 4 million older adults, Medicare announced that it plans to start covering annual lung cancer screening for longtime smokers at high risk for the disease. The announcement by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) will cover yearly low-dose CT scans to detect small lung tumors that can be removed surgically. Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in the U.S. and has a poor prognosis if not caught early. Smoking is the cancer’s
number one risk factor. Experts hailed the decision, which they said could help save thousands of lives annually. “Finally life-saving CT screening will be made available to older smokers who are at the highest risk of lung cancer, particularly those who could not afford to pay for it before. Congratulations to CMS for the decision to cover the test. It has been 20 years in the making,” radiologist Claudia Henschke, M.D., who heads the lung and cardiac screening program at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York, said in an email.
Henschke heads the International Early Lung Cancer Action Program, which has been doing research on the benefits of early lung screening for more than 20 years. Last year, a federal task force recommended the screening for those ages 55 to 79 who had been pack-a-day smokers for 30 years, or who had quit a heavy smoking habit within the last 15 years. Under the Affordable Care Act, that meant private insurers had to begin covering the screening, but it was up to Medicare to decide the issue for its recipients.

Spotlight on Health:
The Best Time to Workout? Morning!
By Princess Gabbara Here’s a question for you: Would you ever consider waking up an hour early every day just to hit the gym? Assuming that your answer was a resounding, “No way!” here’s another question: What if we told you that working out in the morning can help you lose weight faster? If your answer went from “no” to “yes,” then you’ll definitely want to check out these three reasons why working out in the morning is actually better for you. 1. Burns more fat According to a 2013 study conducted by the British Journal of Nutrition, people who exercised in the morning on an empty stomach burned up to 20 percent more body fat. Not bad, huh? 2. Speeds up your metabolism Working out early in
Lupus:
the morning can speed up your metabolism, which helps your body burn more calories. The more calories you burn, the more weight you’ll lose! 3. Boosts your mood When you exercise, your brain releases chemicals called endorphins, which help block feelings
of pain and make you feel good. In fact, people who exercise regularly are less likely to experience depression. Due to the amount of endorphins released in the brain during exercise, the person experiences a sudden feeling of euphoria. That’s what the term “runner’s high” refers to.
tice the hair on the other parts of your body, such as the eyebrows and eyelashes, starting to thin as well. 3. Fatigue Mild to extreme fatigue is another common characteristic of lupus, which makes it difficult for patients to exercise and perform daily activities. If you’re feeling even more tired than usual, this could be a strong indicator that a flare is about to occur. It’s also not uncommon for people with lupus to experience unexplained fevers, which tend to be somewhere between 98.5 and 101 degrees. 4. Kidney problems Some lupus patients de-
velop a kidney inflammation called nephritis, which makes it difficult for your kidneys to flush out toxins and waste from your blood. If you experience swelling in your fingers, lower legs, ankles and feet, high blood pressure, blood and/or a foamy appearance in your urine, dark urine, and/or weight gain, then this could be a sign that there’s a serious problem going on with your kidneys. See your doctor right away. 5. Chest pain Lupus can cause inflammation in your lungs, heart or in the membrane surrounding the heart, which can cause you to experience chest pain, especially when taking deep breaths. 6. Butterfly rash If you have a butterflyshaped rash across your cheeks and the bridge of your nose, you’re not alone. Approximately 30 percent of lupus patients experience this type of rash, however; this could be a sign of rosacea and other skin conditions, so this LUPUS, See page 12A
Do You Know What Symptoms to Look Out For?
According to the Lupus Foundation of America, an estimated 1.5 million people have some form of lupus. Although this autoimmune disease can affect all ages, races, and both genders, the majority of lupus patients – 90 percent to be exact – tend to be women. Being diagnosed with lupus doesn’t mean that you can’t lead a healthy, normal, and productive life. Just take a look at Toni Braxton, Seal, Tim Raines and even the late King of Pop Michael Jackson, for instance. Like any disease, the key to lupus is being able to control and manage it, but first, you have to be able to recognize its symptoms. Read on to find out what they are. 1. Joint pain Experiencing two or more swollen, red, warm, and/or tender-to-the-touch joints for at least six weeks is usually one of the first signs of lupus. 2. Sudden, unexplained hair loss Perhaps one of the most common symptoms of lupus is hair loss. Some people lose their hair in clumps, but more often than not, the hair loss tends to be slow and gradual. You might no-
Half of Adults Could be Overweight by 2030
Nearly half the world’s adults will be overweight or obese by 2030 if current trends continue, a new report by the McKinsey Global Institute predicts. Currently, 2.1 billion people -- nearly one-third of the global population -- are overweight or obese, according to the institute, the Associated Press reported. It also said the worldwide cost of obesity is $2 trillion a year, nearly as much a smoking or the combined costs of war, terrorism and armed violence. The institute said there is no single or simple solution to overweight and obesity, but international disagreement on how to tackle the problem is hindering progress, the AP reported.

Bill Cosby Refuses to Answer Aretha Franklin to Sue Over Sexual Assault Questions on NPR Unauthorized Biography
By Alana Horowitz Bill Cosby remained silent after being asked on NPR to respond to claims that he sexually assaulted several women. According to host Scott Simon, Cosby shook his head and didn't say a word. Cosby and his wife Camille had been discussing their collection of African art on NPR's Weekend Edition. Simon prodded: "There are people who love you who might like to hear from you about this. I want to give you the chance." But Cosby stayed quiet. The pre-taped interview aired on NPR on Saturday. It comes on the heels of news that the legendary comedian's scheduled appearance on The Late Show with David Letterman had reportedly been canceled over the sexual assault accusations. Cosby has been accused of sexual assault for years. The claims have come under new scrutiny though, after comedian Hannibal
Burres called the former 'Cosby Show' star a rapist during a set in Philadelphia last month. This week, one of his alleged victims spoke out in a powerful Washington Post essay. "I’ll never forget the clinking of his belt buckle as he struggled to pull his pants off," Barbara Bowman said. "I furiously tried
to wrestle from his grasp until he eventually gave up, angrily called me “a baby” and sent me home to Denver." Earlier, Cosby received even more backlash after he asked people on Twitter to turn him into a meme and users responded by creating photos alluding to the assaults.
By Lauren Zupkus Timbaland posted a series of videos to his Instagram account denouncing Lifetime's controversial Aaliyah biopic, "Aaliyah: Princess Of R&B." "A lot of people keep asking me if I'm watching that bullshit," Timbaland said in one clip, referring to the Lifetime film about the late R&B singer. "Evidently not. No way.
Not Timbo," the producer added. Timbaland posted four videos in total, adding that he hopes the network will "feel his wrath." The 42-year-old and longtime friend of Aaliyah also posted several memes mocking the film's choice of casting, but perhaps his most powerful message was a photo of Aaliyah with a quote about her legacy.
Despite backlash from social media and the singer's own family, executive producer Debra Martin Chase recently defended "Aaliyah: Princess Of R&B" in a press conference: "Biopics are hard. People have an opinion and social media allows them to voice that opinion. But at the end of the day, our goal was to make the best movie possible,” Chase said.

Timbaland Slams Lifetime's Aaliyah Biopic
By Emily Smith Aretha Franklin is threatening legal action over a new unauthorized biography, “Respect,” by her former ghostwriter David Ritz — which makes wild claims about her sexual promiscuity on the 1950s gospel circuit, known by insiders as the “Sex Circus,” when she was a young teen. The Queen of Soul, who is promoting new album “Aretha Franklin Sings the Great Diva Classics,” is “enormously upset by the book,” just released by Little, Brown and Company, sources say. Ritz, who penned Aretha’s 1999 memoir “From These Roots,” now claims that material was cut by the fiercely private singer from that first tome, including that the gospel circuit, which Aretha and her own father toured on, was known as the “Sex Circus,” with “men-and-men and women-and-women hookups.” Singer Etta James is quoted, “I can understand Aretha not wanting to talk about that . . . Who wants to admit that you’re praising the Lord at the 8 p.m. service and servicing some drop-dead gorgeous hunk of a singer an hour later? Aretha and I started out before we were teenagers . . . we wanted to experience it all. I wouldn’t use the expression sexu-

ally active, I’d say sexually overactive.” But the book, narrated through interviews with friends, family and associates, also paints an inspirational picture of a prodigy who lost her mother at 10, had two kids in her teens, and overcame an abusive marriage thanks to her considerable talent and spirit. While her rep didn’t comment, Franklin — named the No. 1 greatest singer of all time by Rolling Stone — told the Detroit News this week: “There’s a very trashy, trashy book on
the street . . . It’s lies, lies, lies and then more lies.” Franklin adds, “I’m talking to a criminal attorney. If this isn’t defamation, I don’t know what would be.” Ritz earlier penned books with Ray Charles, Smokey Robinson, B.B. King, Janet Jackson and Natalie Cole. Ritz told us: “I spent 25 years researching ‘Respect.’ I see my book as an homage to Aretha’s artistic genius and an empathetic portrait of a woman who has survived and thrived in the complex culture of show business.”
Gugu Mbatha-Raw Tells The True Lesson Behind 'Beyond The Lights'
By Marcela Izasa LOS ANGELES -- British actress Gugu Mbatha-
Gugu Mbatha-Raw
Raw has had a busy 2014. Earlier this year, she starred in "Belle," based on a true story about a mixedrace woman who was raised in British aristocracy in the 18th century. Now, the 31-year-old actress has transformed herself into a hot new pop star in "Beyond the Lights," which was released on Friday. Mbatha-Raw studied the likes of Beyoncé, Rihanna and Katy Perry to transform into her character Noni for the indie drama, directed by Gina Price-Bythewood. The story exposes the dark aspects of fame and pressures of oversexualization encountered by some female artists. The film underscores the importance of having a strong sense of self-worth, Mbatha-Raw says.
"If you're trading your self-worth for an image of sexuality and something that you think is going to be commercial and sell, I just don't think those are very healthy messages for young women today and I think that people often believe the fantasy," she said in a recent interview. Mbatha-Raw says she doesn't feel the same pressures as an actress because you get to play different characters. "The great thing about something like (the character) Noni is that I was able to physically transform and to go on a journey through a different person's eyes but then I can still come back to me," she said. "I just think that's important as I say to be able to touch base with yourself."

Commentary New Senate Majority Leader is Clueless
Loretta Lynch Deserves Swift Confirmation
Jesse L. Jackson, Sr. In response to what he calls the president’s “war on coal,” Future Republican Senate Leader Mitch McConnell says, “I’m going to war with him.” For McConnell, the historic agreement that the president signed with the Chinese, committing them for the first time to dramatic reductions in their greenhouse gases, is an outrage, an assault on “my state.” McConnell has just been reelected by the citizens of Kentucky, albeit a small minority of them. (In a state where fewer than half of those eligible showed up, McConnell won with the votes of about one-fourth of the eligible voters). But seldom has a leader so clearly demonstrated that he will allow ideology and special interests to overrule both common sense and the common good. For McConnell, architect of the Republican scorched earth-obstruction against all things Obama, going to war with the president is old hat. Among other things, he led the repeated Republican efforts to repeal Obamacare. Only, it turned out that health care reform is remarkably popular in Ken-
tucky where the governor embraced it and hundreds of thousands have benefited, particularly from the expansion of Medicaid that McConnell is against. During the campaign, McConnell tried to square this circle by suggesting inaccurately that the Kentucky program could continue even if health care reform was repealed .In part to make up for that foolishness, he was forced to run one of the most expensive Senate races ever to save his seat in a deep red state. Now McConnell is proving that he is a man of the past, not a leader for the future. No matter how much he may stick his head in the ground, climate change is already a real and present danger. Even the Pentagon acknowledges that. The berserk weather that is already roiling the world has concentrated the minds of responsible leaders in governments, militaries, businesses and societies across the globe. Senator McConnell may promise to use his post as Senate majority leader to stand in the doorway and try to block change, but he will find that he is on the wrong side of history.
Julianne Malveaux
Imagine what a more responsible leader of “coal country” would do. McConnell could easily go to the president and demand a major program to transform the region, a Tennessee-Valley-Authoritysized program that would make coal country a center for manufacturing windmills and solar panels and other renewable sources of energy. He could demand funds for rebuilding the region’s energy infrastructure, for investing in its schools, for retraining its workers. He could argue that any just transition must include a real promise of jobs – with the government as the employer of last resort if necessary. He could demand investment in new hospitals and public health facilities, both to care for the miners afflicted from their work in the mines and to be a source of employment and good health in the future. He could be the leader who launches a long overdue renaissance for the SENATE, See page 9B
The Legacy of Marcus Garvey rican people internationally. Though he seldom receives credit for it, Marcus Garvey organized the largest mass movement of Black people in the world. One hundred years later, no one else has been able to match that feat. This is the perfect time to remind everyone Marcus Garvey’s accomplishments, primarily because there is a significant opportunity once again for Black people in America, the Caribbean and in Africa to unite around issues concerning economic development and self-sufficiency as a result of Pan African consciousness. The strategic international emergence of the African Union in Africa that recognizes the inclusion of Black American leaders is an important advance. In addition, Congressman Charles H. Rangel (DN.Y.) plans to reintroduce a bill to officially restore the good name of Marcus Garvey in the United States. We should support Rangel’s legislative initiative to clear Marcus Garvey of the framed-up charges that led President Calvin Coolidge in 1927 to order Garvey to be deported and permanently banned from the U.S. In fact all of us should contact members of Congress, especially member of the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC), and let them know of our support of the Rangel ill.

African American women were excited about President Obama’s nomination of Loretta Lynch to replace Eric Holder as Attorney General of the United States. Since she has sailed through two Senate confirmations, her current confirmation ought to move quickly and without controversy. But Senator Mitch McConnell (RTenn.) and his crowd seem to want to drag the process along, insisting on their “right” to question Loretta Lynch, and to make a spectacle of this confirmation. There are dozens of vacancies in the ambassadorial ranks, among others, because Republicans have blocked Senate consideration of these appointments. Many Republican Senators keep saying they want to work with the administration. One way to show it is to move some of the appointments out of gridlock. Loretta Lynch would be the first African American woman to hold the position. This history-making nomination should not be tarnished by partisan nonsense. If Republicans are really trying to reach out to the African American community, conducting a non-hostile hearing this year would signal their willingness to “do the right
thing” by African Americans. President Obama is entitled to his choice for Attorney General. She has been fully vetted by the White House and has an exemplary record trying cases that range from police brutality to corporate fraud. This is a piece of cake for the woman nominated attorney general. Why would the Senate not choose to fonfirm this woman? Simply to flex their partisan muscles and flaunt their power? I might remind the Senate of the mobilization that Black women when Alexis Herman had a rocky road in her confirmation for Secretary of Labor in President Clinton’s second term. Prominent African American women, including Dorothy Height and C. Delores Tucker, were rallied their supporters. The message: Don’t mess with Alexis. The foundation of another mobilization is present and opposition to the highly qualified Loretta Lynch sends a signal to African American women, and to others, that this is a hostile Senate. This is not new information, but is the kind of information that repels many from the Republican Party. Maybe Republicans don’t care. Maybe, after their
November rout, they feel no need to play nice with the president or with the people who didn’t support them. Memo to Republicans – two years from now you will have to defend your record. What will your vote on the Loretta Lynch confirmation say about you and your party? Republicans were the winners in the 2014 elections, but in some case they didn’t win by much (neither did Democrats). The electorate is divided, and angry enough to simply stay home. Both parties need to activate their base so that more people are excited about participating in elections. Low voter turnout signals “none of the above.” There is no African American woman in the Senate, and precious few in the House of Representatives. Undoubtedly, these women will speak up for Loretta Lynch, perhaps walking from the House offices to the Senate as they did in support of Anita Hill. The confirmation of Loretta Lynch is likely to be a watershed moment for the Senate. Will they act LYNCH, See page 9B
Beyond the Rhetoric:
Diversity in the GOP
Benjamin F. Chavis, Jr. This year marks the 100 anniversary of the founding of the United Negro Improvement Association (UNIA) by the Honorable Marcus Mosiah Garvey. I believe it is important for all people, especially for 45 million Black Americans, to remember the leadership and legacy of Marcus Garvey. At this time across America, in the Caribbean, and in Africa, Black people are facing both the prolonged realities of multiple inequalities and new opportunities to strive forward on a global scale. Our long struggle for freedom, justice and equality has had many different twists and turns. Historically, we have always found ways not to permit the forces of oppression to break our spirit or determination to achieve liberation. During the last century, Black Americans have witnessed and supported the establishment of numerous local, national and international organizations. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) was founded in 1909. The National Urban League (NUL) was established a year later. Garvey started the UNIA in 1914 to instill racial pride and economic self-sufficiency for Black people in America and throughout the Pan African world. Garvey supported complete independence of Africa and the unity of Af-

that, our young people should be encouraged to study the organizational methods of Garveyism. There are so many young leaders in our communities who could be inspired by tenacious views of Garvey. I was fortunate recently to spend some time with the son of Marcus Garvey, Dr. Julius Garvey, recently at the 9th annual Caribbean Business Conference in Nassau, Bahamas. The younger Garvey is an accomplished surgeon and leading medical scientist who now resides in New York. We discussed the public and legislative campaign to render justice to the name and legacy of his father. We do not have to repeat the past. But we should certainly learn from our past so that we can change the future to help transform our world into a better place for all. Benjamin F.

Most pundits predicted gains for the Republican Party in the 2014 midterm elections but no one had an idea that they would win by such an overwhelming margin in both the House of Representatives and the Senate. The Democratic Party had the worse whipping since 1922. Let’s assess the damage. Republicans stretched their majority in the House and added two more Blacks to their rolls. Mia Love, a Black Mormon in Utah, and Will Hurd a Black Jew in Texas, will take their oaths in January. Senator Tim Scott won his first full term by a gigantic margin. He even had more votes than his compatriot Republican Senator, Lindsay Graham. How did this happen? Well, he got the same conservative White votes as Senator Graham as well as Black Democrats who crossed over to vote for this talented, level headed leader. This has the Black liberals of South Carolina livid. The Democratic Party fears this upand-coming political star. The GOP was hoping for at least 51 seats in the Senate. At last count, they have 58. President Obama will have a rocky time trying to move his agenda and pass significant legislation. Senate Majority Leader Mitch
McConnell (Ky.) will demand negotiation and consensus. He is not like his predecessor, Harry Reid, who killed every piece of House legislation favored by the GOP. As they say, “Elections have consequences.” Executive orders from the president and rule changes from his administration will have a hard time standing because it is the proper role of Congress to pass laws or approved administrative actions. Another sea change of this election is what happened at the state level. For example, 43 of the 50 state legislatures (state representatives and senators) are now Republican held. It is amongst these ranks that new season of candidates will rise to the federal congressional positions. If these states resist federal rules such as the state registry program of the Affordable Care Act, AKA Obamacare, it will go to the Supreme Court for a final decision. History shows that the states will win this dispute. The same will occur for the new rules on the Clean Air Act. The DNC is going to have to learn to adjust to the new power curve. Things will be different now and they will have to come to agreement with the other party members.
The strength of the presidency has been greatly weakened. He had both Houses when he became president and took a cocky stance on everything. It has cost him dearly. The GOP plans to keep this new power for a long time. It is very important to them to improve their base. More diversity, especially with Blacks, will be paramount. The timing is great as Blacks have fallen backwards under the Obama administrations. In fact, we have had a 2 percent increase in poverty. There are more of us in jails and no improvements have been made in education and middle class entry. Many lost hope and decided not to go to the polls this time. The current assumption by many of them that nothing is going to change caused the lowest voting turnout in many decades. Democratic Blacks are starting to consider crossing over like we did with Senator Tim Scott this year. Civil rights groups like the NAACP and individuals like “Screaming Al Sharpton” will be losing their persuasive “mojo.” The lines for opportunity GOP, See page 9B

SPONSORS From page 1A competitions,” he stated. “This is only possible through the strong commitment and partnership of our local businesses and organizations.” Past sponsors have included Amgen, Sage Corwin Publications, the Gene Haas Foundation, California Resources Corporation and Aera Energy. To cover the approximately $110,000 it takes to pay for these competitions, plus the numerous volunteers he needs as judges, local sponsors usually provide more than $100,000 in donations and more than 600 volunteer judges in support of about 1,500 students who participate in the three events. The sponsors’ donations cover the cost of food, facility rentals, printing, promotion and awards for the students. According to Tarkany, being a sponsor is quite simple: Fill out a form, decide on a level of sponsorship, choose the event to sponsor, and make a donation. Many businesses also seek out their own as volunteers to serve as judges for each event. Each event is unique in what it offers to students. The Academic Decathlon promotes and recognizes learning and achievement by emphasizing the value of academic excellence. Each year approximately 200 Ventura County students from grades 9-12 work on teams, exchange ideas, set goals, and examine issues while interacting with positive role models from their communities. Past national winners of the Decathlon include Moorpark High School, who won titles in 1999, 2003, 2008 and 2009. The Mock Trial is designed to clarify the workings of our legal institutions for students through firsthand experience. Students in grades 9-12 portray each of the principals in a cast of courtroom characters. The winners go on to compete for the state title in Sacramento. Past winners include La Reina High School, who won the state championship in 2008, 2011, 2012, and 2013. The Science Fair includes nearly 1,000 students in grades 6-12. With science categories that range from Animal Behavior to Social Sciences to Zoology, the fair is designed to promote, encourage, and showcase the achievement of students in fields like science, technology, engineering and mathematics. The most recent local winner of a state science fair title was Adam Protter from Thousand Oaks High School. Protter won first place in 2013 in the senior division of biochemistry. Tarkany describes the role of the Ventura County Office of Education in coordinating these events: “In order to have these events in the county, you have to have someone to take the lead on them, and the VCOE is a service provider to the other 21 districts. It’s an economy of scale to have it headed up here.” While each event is a huge amount of work, Tarkany tells why he and his sponsors enjoy promoting these academic competitions. “I’m one of those people that really wants kids to have some direction,” he explained. “I think college is a very expensive career exploration. If they can go into college knowing what their passions are, it can save them some time and heartache.” Sponsorship opportunities range from Supporter at $100 to Title Sponsor at $20,000. Tarkany also encourages those who may be interested in making individual donations to get in touch. If any organization would like to be a sponsor for the 2015 Ventura County Office of Education student competitions, they can contact Tarkany at (805) 437-1501, via email at jtarkany@vcoe.org, or visit his website at www.vcoe.org/sc. JAIL From page 1A and judgment (and often violence) that are prevalent in other parts of the Los Angeles jail. The inmates’ creativity and relative freedom can be seen in their altered prison gear. They often cut up sheets into dresses and underwear and dye clothes with candies like Skittles. Some show off their creations by walking through impromptu runways between beds, as other inmates cheer them on. “We make the best of it,” said Dino Baglioni, an inmate. “But there’s a lot of sadness as well. Incarceration is just not easy on us at all.” The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Men’s Central Jail is one of the largest in the world, with 1,000 security cameras and more than 500 sheriff’s deputies employed as jailers. The jail has also been mired in some controversy after seven of the county’s jailers were convicted as part of an ongoing federal investigation into obstruction of justice and use of excessive force against inmates. But the jail is fairly unique for its gay and transgender wing, as LA Weekly reported: A spokesman for the Fort Worth jail system quipped that L.A.’s inmate population is so big, officials probably could create a wing for ‘left-handed Frisbee players from Albania. But we smaller jails don’t have enough size to create special groups.’ The closest thing to a gay wing in another big, urban jail system, though it isn’t close at all, is at the Old Wayne County Jail in Detroit, which offers a small number of locked cells to gay and transgender inmates.

You will realize that Thanksgiving Day is a state of mind rather than a place in time. Join the celebration every moment of every day. PEACE From page 2A others will not affect you. Living a roller coaster life – up and down based on people and circumstances – is far from peace. Peace produces better thoughts and more importantly, it produces better decisions in our lives. What are you doing? Are you a person of peace? Do your thoughts, words and actions produce harmony, tranquility and serenity? Or do the things that you think on, speak about and do produce annoyance, distraction and anxiety? What are you partaking in? Claiming to be a person who likes peace is one thing, but actually living as a peaceful person is much more. Walking in peace is rewarding, not only for you but also to everyone connected to you. Regardless of your past and your circumstances, you still choose the type of person you are going to be. You can choose dysfunction and anxiety, or you can choose peace and tranquility. The better path would be the one of peace. Choose peace, and you will be glad that you did. TRIVIA From page 2A Three days. 4) Back in the early 1600’s, the pilgrims didn’t have which of the following utensils to eat their Thanksgiving meal with? Possibly the (FORK). Most pilgrims brought eating utensils with them across from Europe when they sailed to North America. Metal knives forks and spoons were common in Europe by that time and those who did not have such utensils would have soon fashioned replicas from wood. 5) What popular and traditional food item was not part of the first Thanksgiving feast in 1621? The turkey. It was added some four hundred years later. 6) What is the day after Thanksgiving known as? Black Friday; Big shopping day. It’s the biggest sale day of the year. It makes the difference for many retailers. If they will be in the black (have a profit) or in the red (have a loss) for the year. Black Friday’s can be tracked back to the 1960’s. 7) Which president is believed to be the first to pardon a turkey and start this annual tradition? George H. W. Bush was the first to grant an actual presidential pardon to the turkey presented to him at Thanksgiving by the national turkey foundation in 1989. Harry Truman may have been given a turkey in 1947 but there is no record that he pardoned it -- he quite likely gave it to someone to kill and eat. John F Kennedy spared a Thanksgiving turkey that he was given, but he did not refer to the act as granting a pardon. 8) What was the name of the turkey that was pardoned by Barack Obama in 2009? Courage. If for some reason Courage the Turkey was not able to live up to his “official duties” (which essentially consisted of sitting there and not biting the president), an alternate, Carolina, was nearby and ready to step in. 9) How and why did the turkey get its name? The first European explorers
NOVEMBER 28, 2014
to discover (and eat) turkey were those in Hernan Cortez’s expedition in Mexico in 1519. This new delicacy was brought back to Europe by Spanish Conquistadors and by 1524, had reached England. The bird was domesticated in England within a decade, and by the turn of the century, its name — “turkey” — had entered the English language 10) Which US President attempted to move Thanksgiving up by one week to lengthen the Christmas shopping season? In 1939, U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt. The world was suffering through the Great Depression. The U.S. economy continued to look bleak. So when U.S. retailers begged him to move Thanksgiving up a week to increase the shopping days before Christmas, he agreed. SOLDIER From page 3A to miss seeing her every day. I’m used to being with her all the time since I looked after her since May. But I’ll still happy for her. Kaydence has been talking about her mother ever since she left.” As soldiers in uniforms begin to enter the gate, her eyes widened as she saw her mother run to her with a wide smile. “Mom!” Kaydence ran to Sgt. Kinley as the mother embraced her. Sgt. Kinley’s 9-year-old son Alex also hugged his mother as Sgt. Kinley cried tears of joy. “I’m so happy to be back,” Sgt. Kinley said. “My children didn’t know I was coming back so this was exciting because I was able to surprise them. Whenever we spoke over the phone or messages, they would ask me if I can come back home for Christmas. I’m so glad we were able to come back home for Thanksgiving.” Sgt. Kinley says this Thanksgiving is going to be like no other. “There are no words to describe how I feel,” Sgt. Kinley said. “My legs were shaking, I felt jittery the entire time I was in the plane. I’m glad to be back home.” Kaydence said the first thing she wants to with her mother when they go back home is to tell her what she did during the time her mother was in Afghanistan. “I’m going to sit next to her and tell her what I’ve been doing when she wasn’t here,” Kaydence said. “I was feeling kind of sick this morning, but I feel all better now.” SIGN UP From page 3A community,” he said. “So, if you go back to the Tuskegee syphilis experiments in African-American men by the federal government … even though that was [decades] ago, it still is a sore spot with the AfricanAmerican community.” He added that Black men, particularly younger ones, often have a sense of invulnerability — which leads them to believe they can overcome illness and injury on their own. “Trying to get folks out of that mindset,” Ross said, “is going to take a bit of time.” Californians needing health coverage have until Feb. 15, 2015 to sign-up for Covered California providers such as Anthem Blue Cross, Health Net, Molina Healthcare and others. Consumers must enroll by Dec. 15 in order to guarantee coverage on Jan. 1. An expanded MediCal program, which can also be accessed through Covered California, has the potential to serve millions more citizens. Covered California and its partners say that in order to reach more African-Americans, a new emphasis will be placed on advertising in ethnic media and supporting targeted enrollment activities. Ross said they need to do better job of getting to trusted messengers in communities. “The pastors, the ministers, the barber, the beauty salon owner,” he said. “I think this year you will see us continuing to moving more resources into African-American press and media outlets and get the word out.” DOING WORK ON THE GROUND Although its patient base is largely Latino, the Eisner Center is working to help enroll Blacks in obtaining coverage and administering services. In the past 10 months, ten percent of the center’s patients have been African-American. Officials there say they have seen 14 Black Medi-Cal patients and two AfricanAmericans with private insurance obtained through Covered California. Herb K. Schultz, president and CEO of the Eisner Center, said the center is enrolling people every day — in either free or low-cost coverage through Medi-Cal, or My Health LA, a no-cost health program for Los Angeles County residents. “There are thousands of them who have come into our doors, who we met in the community to enroll and have now become patients,” said Schultz. “So there are thousands of people who, if not for Obamacare, would be walking in our doors without an ability to pay, which they are entitled to and deserve to do. That’s the importance of Obamacare.” Ross said, that there still might be some kinks in the enrollment process, but the process will be better. “For example, the Covered California hotline was really tough for consumers the first year,” he said. “Many people had one-hour, two-hour, three-hour waiting times to talk to someone. This year it will be a lot better.” WAIVER From page 5A standards that formally define what students need to know in English language arts and math by the end of each academic year. Oklahoma dropped Common Core earlier this
year, and lost its waiver in August as a result. States must also continue to show that they are implementing teacher evaluations that take student performance into account, as they promised when they initially joined the program. Washington state lost its waiver for failing to comply with this directive. States eligible for an expedited process will have until the end of January to apply for an extension of their waivers through 2018-2019 -more than two years after the end of Obama’s second term. “It’s locking down [Secretary of Education] Arne Duncan’s education policies well into the next administration,” said Anne Hyslop, an analyst at Bellwether Education Partners who was verbally briefed on the new guidelines. ALEXANDER From page 7A a 60-year sentence for Alexander for firing a shot in the direction of Gray and two of his children from previous relationships. Alexander is charged with three counts of aggravated assault with a weapon and is asserting she fired the shot in self-defense because Gray had just beaten her and was about to beat her again, according to Jacksonville.com. Gray has denied abusing Alexander before the shots were fired and said he was leaving the house when the shooting occurred happened, the report says. WILSON From page 7A I saw this and that face coming at me again, and i just went like this and i shielded my face ... Question: did he hit you at that time? Yes .... So I pulled the trigger, it just clicks that time. Without even looking, i just grab the top of my gun, the slide and i racked it ... i pulled the trigger again, it goes off ... It went off twice in the car. Pull, click, click, went off, click, went off. So twice in the car ... When I look up after that, i see him start to run and i see a cloud of dust behind him ... As I’m getting out of the car i tell dispatch, ‘shots fired, send me more cars.’ We start running ... I remember seeing him running towards the light pole. We pass two cars that were behind my police car while we were running ... When i passed the second one, about the same time he stopped running and he is at that light pole. When he stopped, I stopped. And then he starts to turn around, i tell him to get on the ground, get on the ground. He turns, and when he looked at me, he made like a grunting ... he turns and he’s coming back towards me. His first step is coming towards me, he kind of does like a stutter step to start running. When he does that, his left hand goes in a fist and goes to his side, his right one goes under his shirt in his waistband and he starts running at me ... As he is coming towards me, i tell, keep telling me to get on the ground, he doesn’t. I shoot a series of shots. I don’t know how many i shot, i just know i shot it. I know I missed a couple, I don’t know how many, but I know I hit him at least once because I saw his body kind of jerk or flenched. It remember having tunnel vision on his right hand ... when i was shooting ... after the last shot my tunnel vision kind of opened up. I remember seeing the smoke from the gun and I kind of looked at him and he’s still coming at me, he hadn’t slowed down. At this point i start backpedaling and again, i tell him get on the ground, get on the ground, he doesn’t. I shoot another round of shots. Again, I don’t recall how many it was or if I hit him every time. I know at least once because he flinched again. At this point it looked like he was almost bulking up to run through the shots, like it was making him mad that I’m shooting at him. And the face that he had was looking straight through me, like I wasn’t even there ... Well, he keeps coming at me after that again, during the pause i tell him to get on the ground, get on the ground, he still keeps coming at me, gets about 8 to 10 feet away. At this point I’m backing up pretty rapidly, I’m backpedaling pretty good because i know if he reaches me, he’ll kill me. And he had started to lean forward as he got that close, like he was going to just tackle me, just go right through me ... His hand was in a fist at his side, this one is in his waistband under his shirt, and he was like this. Just coming straight at me like he was going to run right through me. And when he gets about that 8 to 10 feet away, i look down, i remember looking at my sites and firing, all i see is his head and that’s what i shot. I don’t know how many, i know at least once because I saw the last one go into him. And then when it went into him, the demeanor on his face went blank, the aggression was gone, it was gone, i mean, i knew he stopped, the threat was stopped. When he fell, he fell on his face ... i remember his feet coming up, like he had so much momentum carrying him forward when he fell, his feet kind of came up a little bit and then they rested. At that point i got back on the radio and said, ‘send me a supervisor and every car you got.’ .... Question: Did you know that radio dispatch did not go out (after 2 shots fired in the car and Darren Wilson ran No, I didn’t find out until later while I was actually driving back to the station that my portable radio was on channel 3 and our main channel was channel 1. Question: So nobody heard you say shots fired to your knowledge? To my knowledge Question about why Darren Wilson ran after Michael Brown My main goal was to keep eyes on him and just to keep him contained until I had people coming there .... If I could buy 30 seconds of time, some-
one else will be here, we can make the arrest, nothing happens, we are all good ... Question: when the second shot was fired inside the car, did you think he was hit at all? No I thought I missed ... Question - Wilson is asked why Michael Brown turned around after running away His whole reaction to the whole thing was something I’ve never seen. I’ve never seen that much aggression so quickly from a simple request to just walk on the sidewalk Police arrive and start taping off the area and Darren Wilson’s sergeant arrives I said I have to tell you what happened. And he goes, what happened. I said, I had to kill him. He goes, you what? I said, he grabbed my gun, I shot him, I killed him. He goes, go sit in the car. I said, I cannot sit in the car. I remember him saying, Darren, sit in the car. I said Sarge, I can’t be singled out. it is already getting hostile, I can’t be singled out in the car. I will leave if you want me to leave. He said, take my car and leave. So I got in his car and I drove to the police station .... Question: In your mind him grabbing the gun is what made the difference where you felt you had to use a weapon to stop him? Yes. Once he was hitting me in the face, that enough, was in my mind to authorize the use of force ... Question: I wanted to ask you about your relationship with the residents in the Canfield Green Apartments It is an antipolice area for sure ... There’s lots of gangs that reside or associate with that area. There’s a lot of violence in that area, there’s a lot of gun activity, drug activity, it is just not a very well-liked community. That community doesn’t like the police .... Question: so you drive back to Ferguson by yourself ... what do you do? I immediately go to the bathroom. On the way back i found that i had blood on the inside of my left hand and I already know I had it on the back of my right hand ... everything we have always been taught about blood, you don’t want it on you, you don’t touch it, you don’t come in contact with it ... so thinking that i was cut with someone else’s blood on me, i had to wash my hands ... (Darren then sees his friend at the station and talks to him and asks for a pair of gloves) put the gloves on. I grab an evidence envelope, take my gun out of the holster, make it safe ... I put it all in that bag, seal it with evidence tape and then sign it ... (asked why he wore gloves) To preserve any evidence on there, I knew his DNA was on that gun ... I knew that he had fingerprints on it and possibly even sweat .. when I took it out, i also saw blood on it ... Question: Is it procedure for you to make your gun safe in a shooting like this I don’t really know (because had he not investigated this type of crime ... I sat down and called for my attorney, who represents police for the union ... he gave me the card for the application for the Fraternal Order of Police. I said, I already called them. He said would you like to tell me what happened so I can tell the media? I said, no, I don’t want to talk right now ... I left the scene pretty much right after ... my assistant chief showed up, he came in and he made the determination that we should go to the hospital, he could see the swelling on my face ... assistant chief drove me to the hospital and Detective (blank) followed ... At the hospital we did the interview ... While waiting to be treated in the waiting room, not in the waiting room, the actual hospital room, Detective (blank) began his interview and then stopped as needed for nurses, whoever came in. They took x-rays, prescribed me a painkiller for the face injuries ... Questions where Darren Wilson worked before Ferguson: Jennings and Pine Lawn for 8 hours Question Any other incidents where you have been involved where you had to use excessive force? I’ve never used my weapon before ... I’ve used my asp before, I have used my flashlight before and i have used OC spray before ... (no injuries) Question Have you always worked in predominantly AfricanAmerican neighborhoods? Yes I have ... Question: You said you knew the area and you felt threatened in that area because there is violence and guns and everything, and that Michael Brown was being confrontational before the first blow ... Is there any reason why you didn’t wait in the car until your backup came? I thought i would be able to just stall until someone got there ... i figure all i needed was 20 or 30 seconds and someone is going to be there ... my comfort zone is not to be sitting in the car talking to someone else. I wanted to be out of the car, that way if I need to run I can run ... But I also didn’t want him to run away, so I need to kind of stay where I can keep him there, keep myself safe and wait for someone to get there ... Question: did you ever at any time fire with his back facing you? No I did not .... Question about Michael Brown grabbing his gun He didn’t pull it from my holster, but whenever it was displayed to him, he did take complete control. Because he had twisted it around so my hand was no longer this way, it was bent this way and it was dug into my hip. He had complete control of that weapon at that time ... Questions about if he ever wrote down what happened My statement had been written for my attorney ... The department has not asked me for anything ...
Question: You didn’t just on your own decide I want to write this down while it is all fresh in my mind, you didn’t do that yourself? No ..... DARREN WILSON IS ASKED AT THE VERY END IF THERE IS ANYTHING THAT HE WANTS THE JURORS TO KNOW AND HE ASKED THE BEST QUESTION One of the thing you guys haven’t asked that has been asked of me in other interviews is, was he a threat, was Michael Brown a threat when he was running away. People asked why would you chase him if he was running away now. I had already called for assistance. If someone arrives and sees him running, another offices and goes around the back half of the apartment complexes and tries to stop him, what would stop him from doing what he just did to me to him or worse ... he still posed a threat, not only to me, to anybody else that confronted him. SECURITY From page 8A you work with a tax or financial planning professional, double-check their conclusions if you plan to challenge any errors with the SSA. • Some Facts About Social Security. Provides additional definitions and guidelines to better understand your statement and includes key contact information. Most experts will tell you that when it comes to retirement, time is your biggest ally – it gives you the opportunity to invest, save and adjust your plan strategy. Use your statement to do the following: • Spot and correct errors. If you and your tax professional spot disparities in your benefit statement make careful notes, gather your evidence and consult the SSA’s contact page (www.ssa.gov/agency/contact/) to start the correction process remotely or in person. • Blend Social Security into a broader retirement plan. Most experts agree Social Security alone won’t provide a comfortable retirement. It’s never too late to plan. Bottom Line: Even if you’re years away from retirement, make sure you understand your Social Security benefits, and that they’re accurate and fit into a broader financial plan for your retirement. LIGHTING From page 8A Create a warm ambience. Your home heating system and a fireplace are not the only ways you can chase away the freezing temperatures outside. The color temperature of your lighting can lend to a warm atmosphere. “We believe 2700 Kelvin is the most used and most pleasant,” Wiedemer explains. “It is most like normal outside lighting without looking into the sun.” LED light bulbs can also enhance your ambient lighting. Some LEDs are tunable so you can adjust the color temperature with a built-in dial or a smartphone app. Additionally, you can find color-changing LED products if you want to alter the theme to match the holiday.

Light sensitivity A large portion of lupus patients tend to be sensitive to sunlight, which can trigger body sores, achy joints and extreme fatigue, but similar to the butterfly rash, this symptom can be tricky since many people are sensitive to the sunlight. 8. Other symptoms Other symptoms of lupus include anemia, seizures, dizziness, thyroid problems, gastrointestinal problems, dry mouth and dry eyes, and depression.

FRIDAY
News from the D.A. VENTURA, CA - District Attorney Gregory D. Totten announced that following review by the conviction integrity unit his office has agreed that Michael Ray Hanline be released from prison. On November 10, 1978, J. T. McGarry, aka Mike Mathers, disappeared from his home in Ventura. Two days later, his body was found off Highway 33. Hanline was convicted Michael Ray Hanline by a jury of first degree murder with the special circumstance that the crime was committed in the course of a burglary. He was sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole. Investigations conducted by the District Attorney's Conviction Integrity Unit and Bureau of Investigation, and by the California Innocence Project, have found new evidence that casts doubt upon the correctness of the jury's verdict. At the initiative of the District Attorney's Office, DNA analysis was conducted on evidence collected at the crime scene. In addition, the District Attorney's Office concluded that certain reports would have been helpful to the defense and should have been disclosed to defense counsel at the time of trial. On November 13, 2014, the District Attorney filed a response to a petition for writ of habeas corpus. In response, the Superior Court, County of Ventura, issued a writ of habeas corpus setting aside the conviction and sentence. The matter was held November 24, 2014, at 8:30 a.m. in courtroom 13, to set the case for retrial and establish bail. As the United States Supreme Court recognized in Berger v. United States, the twofold aim of the prosecutor "is that guilt shall not escape nor innocence suffer." To that end, the District Attorney established a conviction integrity process in 2012 to review claims of factual innocence. At the present time, the conviction integrity process has not concluded that Hanline is factually innocent. But flaws in the trial and the totality of the evidence cast sufficient doubt upon the conviction to warrant vacating the jury's guilty verdict. The District Attorney will continue to evaluate the evidence to determine how to proceed.
Get the Scoop on Crime! On August 30, officers from the Oxnard Police Department responded to the 700 block of Forest Park Blvd in the City of Oxnard in reference to the possible sexual exploitation of a minor by an adult. An Oxnard resident reported that while reviewing her child’s mobile device, she discovered that her 12-year-old daughter had been involved in an online sexual conversation with a 23-year-old male adult. After an extensive two-month investigation, investigators from the Oxnard Police Department’s Family Protection Unit arrested 23-year-old Oscar Mora of Carpinteria for numerous charges including traveling for the purposes of engaging a minor for sex, conspiracy to commit a crime, and child luring. He is currently in custody at the Ventura County Jail with bail set at $250,000. Investigators have reason to believe that there may be other victims that have been contacted by Mora. Anyone with additional information should contact Detective Terrance Dobrosky at (805) 385-7609. The Oxnard Police Department would like to remind parents of the importance of being diligent in monitoring the websites their children visit or the apps that they use on their phones or mobile devices. The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (www. missingkids.com) has a myriad of resources available for parents that answer questions about internet safety, computers, and the web.

They have emerged as a phenomenon with a massive fanbase, numerous national TV appearances and proven success with CD releases.

Ephraim & Manasseh Worship Center Holds Service Themed Supernatural Chesed: What Would Jesus Do for the Poor and Less Fortunate?

Ephraim and Manasseh Praise Team
Oxnard, CA – This past Sunday, Ephraim & Manasseh Worship Center, located at 2380 Eastman Avenue, Suite 101, held a service titled “Supernatural Chesed: What Would Jesus Do for the Poor and Less Fortunate?” Bishop Princeton L. Allen read from Matthew 25:110, which talks about the Parable of the Ten Virgins. He emphasized the importance of doing charitable deeds. “When we look
in the Hebrew text, there are two principles that relate to giving. The first one is chesed, which means to show loving kindness; giving to a person who cannot return the favor. The next one is Sadaqah. This word means righteousness, fairness, justice and charity.” Bishop Allen then discussed the ingredients of the anointing oil mentioned in Exodus 30: myrrh, cinnamon, cane,
cassia and olive oil, which he termed The Ingredients of Obedience. The ingredients stand for purification; obedience; the brokenness and the compassion of serving; the humility of service; probation and trial, respectively. The service ended with Bishop Allen rubbing anointing oil on members of the congregation. For information on worship services, visit: http:// www.ephraimmwc.com.

OXNARD, Calif. – The holiday season will shine a little brighter as The Collection at RiverPark hosts FOOD Share’s 3rd annual CAN-tree Collection food drive from Dec. 5-7. The fun-filled three-day event, co-chaired by County of Ventura CEO Mike Powers and Wells Fargo District Director Carmen De Arcos Gonzales, will support FOOD Share’s Tackle Hunger campaign, in which business, community and faith-based teams collect canned goods and build their own CAN-trees as part
of their fight against hunger. With a goal this year to collect more than 112,500 cans to build 150 CAN-trees —5-foot-tall holiday trees each built from approximately 600-800 canned goods—teams will transform the dining and shopping destination into a veritable “forest” of cans for the weekend. The centerpiece of the spectacular display will be a 14-foot CAN-tree made with 10,000 cans donated by Ventura County Credit Union, and designed and assembled by students of ACE Charter High School.
For the first time, a special presentation of the event’s impressive centerpiece will kick-off the event weekend on Thursday, Dec. 4, at 5 p.m., with country sensation Parmalee, who will follow the “tree lighting” with an intimate acoustic arrangement to get attendees in the holiday spirit. The CAN-tree build will be held over three days, with business teams building on Friday, while community and faith-based groups building their CAN-trees on Saturday and Sunday.

CHiPs for Kids
Toy Drive and Media Event
THOUSAND OAKS, CA -- Walgreens Pharmacy has again partnered with “CHiPS for Kids” to raise money and toys for their Southern California Annual Holiday Program. “CHiPS for Kids” is a month long event starting in November that asks people to donate to less fortunate children. This includes children who are homeless (living in cars and shelters) and constantly moving from one “home” to another and worse. Led by Jerry Pira, a Walgreens Pharmacy Store Manager, Walgreens is going on its 6th consecutive season with over 300 Walgreen locations in Southern California teaming up with the California Highway Patrol (CHP), CBS channel 2, KCAL channel 9, Krth 101fm, Jack Radio 93.1fm, Red Robin restaurants and Starbucks. KCBS 2 and KCAL 9 television studios will announce the beginning of the toy and donation drive at 5am on Thursday, Dec. 4th. All 300+ Walgreens are available for drop off of toys and donations including Jerry Pira’s store located at 550 N. Ventu Park Road, Thousand Oaks, CA 91320; which is Walgreens statewide community involvement flagship store, and the site of
the Walgreens media event on December 4, 11am – 9pm. Live feeds will be shown (at Walgreens in Thousand Oaks) throughout the day capturing the excitement and holiday spirit with cameras continuously rolling for 10-11 hours to inspire as many as possible to donate. California Highway Patrol (CHP) officers will be volunteering their time and sometimes a surprise visit by the chief of the CHP. Coke, Pepsi, and Frito Lay will be donating products and promotional merchandise for raffles and giveaway contests to incentivize people to give. Last year Walgreens was able to coordinate donations of over 29,000 toys and Jerry Pira plans to break the record this year. “I was shocked that no matter the amount of donations received, Los Ange-
les has more kids in need than we can donate too. My staff personally donates toys and volunteers their time to participate in this event. My brother and I donate (on behalf of Walgreens) 300-500 toys
from our web business Pee Wee Comics, in addition to thousands of comics for all “CHiPS for Kids” events during the holiday season.” “I can only imagine how a parent may feel when they cannot provide for their family let alone buy a toy or gift during the holidays. As a father my goal is to satisfy every child for just one year and when that happens… goal accomplished!” says Jerry Pira. For further information on how you can donate or become part of this event please contact Jerry Pira at Walgreens; Store: (805) 375-4052 or Cell: (818) 522-4969.

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.

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.

The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 272 ROCKAWAY ROAD, OAK VIEW AREA, CA 93022 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be made without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the Note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said Note(s), advances if any, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, estimated fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligations secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of this Notice of Trustee’s Sale is estimated to be $639,355.40 (Estimated). However, prepayment premiums, accrued interest and advances will increase this figure prior to sale. Beneficiary’s bid at said sale may include all or part of said amount. In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept a cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the California Financial Code and authorized to do business in California, or other such funds as may be acceptable to the Trustee. In the event tender other than cash is accepted, the Trustee may withhold the issuance of the Trustee’s Deed Upon Sale until funds become available to the payee or endorsee as a matter of right. The property offered for sale excludes all funds held on account by the property receiver, if applicable. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. 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.

In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept a cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the California Financial Code and authorized to do business in California, or other such funds as may be acceptable to the Trustee.

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.

MEDICARE, From page 9A created by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services to help beneficiaries choose high-quality Medicare health plans. Plans receive an overall rating from one to five stars, with five being the highest for quality and service. Medicare members have the benefit of joining a five-star plan nearly all year -- from Dec. 8 through Nov. 30 of the next year. They must be eligible and live where a five-star plan is offered. 5. Review your health care needs annually. A Kaiser Family Foundation survey found that many beneficiaries -- once enrolled in a Medicare health plan -- don’t often feel confident they made the right choice, and don’t review their plan if their health care needs change. Medicare enrollees can use the Medicare star ratings to help them feel confident about choosing a high-quality plan. BUSINESS, From page 9A Those 50 and older are in a position financially that might allow them to buy a business and not put all of their retirement at risk, Homan says. In buying an existing business, the start up costs is completed and hopefully it has an established brand and customer base, she says. SENATE, From page 11A region, rather than trying to hang on desperately to its no longer sustainable past. But of course to do that, McConnell would have to represent the common good of his constituents rather than the special interests – the oil and coal companies – that helped pay for his campaign. He’d have to accept that in a time of national and regional emergency, his conservative antigovernment ideology should take a backseat to vital public investment and planning. Like Lyndon B. Johnson embracing the cause of civil rights, or Ronald Reagan reaching out to Mikhail Gorbachev, eighth and last leader of the Soviet Union, on nuclear disarmament, he’d have to have sufficient vision to ignore the brickbats of his allies on the right. LYNCH, From page 11A out of integrity or ignorance? Loretta Lynch deserves to be confirmed sooner rather than later, and the senators who talked bipartisan cooperation on the campaign trail need to practice what they preach. CORRECTION: A few weeks ago, my column focused on for-profit colleges and erroneously posted the salaries of some of the senior officers in DeVry Inc. DeVry is a publicly traded company, and the company includes five colleges including a medical school, School of Business and Management and the school of Liberal Arts & Sciences. As a publicly traded company with a Board of Directors (who earn approximately ($170,000 a year), which sets the salary for CEO Daniel Hamburger, who earned $6.4 million in fiscal year 2013. The president of DeVry University, David Pauldine, earned about $1.5 million in fiscal 2013. GOP, From page 11A on the Republican side will be much shorter. A sharp political aspirant will find minimal waiting time to prove his/ her skills and worth to the party. They will be given much attention and encouragement. Like Dr. Ben Carson, Mia Love and Will Hurd. , good talent will be recognized and supported by the GOP establishment. They know they have done a poor job in diversity and it is now a top priority for them. This is their moment and any hesitancy could quickly slow their progress or even stop it. FOOD SHARE, From page 16A Collection will also add to the holiday ambiance throughout the weekend when event-goers will have the opportunity to take photos with Santa and enjoy festive tunes sung by holiday carolers. Retailers will also get in on the holiday fun when Color Me Mine hosts an ornament-making workshop and Panera Bread invites patrons to indulge in some “sweet creativity” at its cookie decorating station. During the afternoon of Saturday, Dec. 6, 103.3 The Vibe’s DJ Perez will host a music set sponsored by Kaiku Finance LLC, a leader of forward-thinking prepaid products and services, for event attendees and participants as they build their community CAN-trees. At 3 p.m., singersongwriters Eric Hutchison and Tristan Prettyman will take to the stage for a special performance to commemorate the successful event weekend. Donations to FOOD Share will be accepted all weekend. For every $25 donated, the regional food bank will be able to provide $125 worth of food to families in need. This year, FOOD Share’s goal is to raise $150,000 in donations throughout the holiday season. CELEBRITY, From page 16A Christmas Parade is one of the many holiday celebrations that fill the calendar in December. “It’s a rare opportunity to be able to slow down and enjoy old-time traditions and have more of an intimate holiday experience,” stated Susan Smith, President & CEO of the Oxnard Convention & Visitors Bureau. “We invite visitors to share in the many holiday experiences taking place all throughout our city,” she added.

Saturday, December 6 at 9 p.m. at 8440 Wilshire Blvd., in Beverly Hills Five-time Grammy Winner (and 15-time nominee) Robert Cray is widely recognized as one of the greatest guitarists of our time. The New Yorker recently called him, “one of the most reliable pleasures of soul and blues for over three decades now.” He has written or performed with everyone, from Eric Clapton to Stevie Ray Vaughan, from Bonnie Raitt to John Lee Hooker, and in 2011, he was inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame. This year marks Robert Cray’s fortieth anniversary as a musician, and he is celebrating in style. He notes with pride and some amusement, that he continues to see new, younger faces in his audiences. Opening set by CHRISCO. Tickets are $35, $45, $55, and $80 with applicable fees. Under 18 must be accompanied by a paying adult. For more information, call (888) 6455006 or visit www.sabantheatre.org.
