Moviegoers Laugh and Applaud.

But It’s Not a Film

(Photo Credit: Taj Brayboy, Howard University News Service)

By Taj Brayboy Howard University News Service WASHINGTON – Inside one of the theaters at the Regal Cinema movie complex in Washington’s Gallery Place/Chinatown, the audience of mostly millennial’s sat in one of the darkened theaters and laughed loudly at the dialogue and pictures on the big screen.

But it wasn’t a film that had the audience chuckling.

It was the presidential debate. They were part of the thousands of people across America who took the cinema chain’s offer to watch the presidential debate free at one of its theaters scattered across America.

Patrons ate popcorn, candy, and slurped down sodas and enjoyed a good laugh while critiquing the verbal battle between Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton and Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.

Devaughn Otto, 22, of Washington, was in the audience.

“The atmosphere is a lot better than watching it home,” Otto said. “It adds to the dramatic effect, and audience reactions are almost as good as the actual debate.”

Over 50 people gathered for the contest, the second of three.

The first presidential debate on Sept. 26 drew more than 80 million viewers,

making it the most viewed presidential debate in the 60 years of televised debates, according to Forbes.com.

Regal Cinema aired the debate in 215 theaters. It offered a free soda with every popcorn purchase. The de-

Bird tests positive for West Nile Virus

VENTURA, California – The Ventura County Environmental Health Division (Division) advises the public to take the following precautions to minimize exposure to West Nile Virus (WNV): Eliminate standing water from your property; make sure doors and windows have tightfitting screens without holes; when outdoors wear long pants and long-sleeved shirts and limit activity especially at dawn and dusk; when outdoors apply insect repellent.

WNV can not only affect humans but can also affect horses. For information on WNV in horses, the owners should contact their veterinarian. VIRUS, See page 12A

VENTURA COUNTY, CA – Congresswoman Julia Brownley joined the Ventura County Watershed Protection District and other stakeholders to discuss a plan for the removal of the Matilija Dam due to its adverse impact on the local ecosystem and sediment build-up that has rendered the structure obsolete.

Following a tour of the dam, Secretary of the Cali-

fornia Natural Resources Agency John Laird was the special guest at a roundtable discussion with key federal, state, local, and community stakeholders to identify strategies and specific plans for funding and actions needed to remove the dam and accommodate accumulated sediment. Senator Hannah-Beth Jackson (D-Santa Barbara), Assemblymember Das Williams

claimed “Mastermind.”

Steve Bunnell, chief content and programming officer for the theaters, explained the idea.

“While our auditoriums feature the likes of Batman V. Superman or Alien vs.

“The Matilija Dam removal project will improve the natural habitat along the Ventura River and Matilija Creek that is critical for California’s ecosystem, and restore the beauty of one of Ventura County’s natural treasures. I thank Secretary BROWNLEY, See page 12A

Marijuana Tax

Revenue Hopes

Could Go Up in Smoke

By George Runner For the third time in state history, California voters will be faced with the question of legalizing marijuana for recreational use.

The official ballot summary for Proposition 64 says the measure could generate up to $1 billion in new tax revenue annually for state and local governments. Only time will tell if this is true, but voters – regardless of how they plan to vote – would be wise to take these revenue projections with a grain of salt.

First, the facts: Prop. 64 would legalize marijuana – under state, not federal, law – while creating a $9.25 per ounce cultivation tax on dried flowers, a $2.75 per ounce cultivation tax on dried marijuana leaves, and a 15 percent excise tax on the retail sale of medical and non-medical marijuana products. In addition, nonmedical products would be subject to California sales tax, which currently ranges from 7.5 to 10 percent.

Under Prop. 64, medical marijuana will not be subject to state sales tax. Furthermore, it will be exempt MARIJUANA, See page 12A

Voices and View Points Reclaim Lost Blessings Words to Live by

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

By Pastor Lonnie G. McCowan The Israelites had been in slavery year after year for some 400 years, even though they were promised land that they could live on, a land that flows with milk and honey.

They were brutally mistreated and taken advantage of.

One day God supernaturally brought them out over that bondage, through the miracle of opening up the Red Sea. The Israelites walked across on dry land. And after much traveling, they finally made it to the promise land; they were camped right next door.

God promised them the victory all they had to do was fight for the land. They were so close they could taste it.

Their dream was about to come to pass. Moses sent some men in to spy out the land. They came back and said Moses we’ll never defeat these people they are so much stronger and powerful than us, we don’t have a chance. That negative report spread like wildfire through out the rest of the camp.

The people got discouraged.

They started complaining saying Moses why did you bring us out here in the desert to die? Why can’t we just go back to being slaves?

Do you know those people, even though they were right next door to the biggest blessing ever, never made it in to the promise land? They wandered around in the wilderness for over 40 years.

My point is this. It became permanent because of their own wrong thinking. It was never God’s intention for them to stay in mediocrity. God never planned for them to wander around defeated, constantly struggling, constantly in lack.

They had seen God do great things but when we get discouraged and we slip over into that negative mentality and we start thinking, “My obstacles are too big. I don’t see how I could ever change. It’s always going to be like this.” Wrong thinking is what allows it to become permanent. And some of you today just like them you are camped right next door to your biggest promise. You are so close to a major victory. You are so close to seeing that promotion you’ve been praying for, so close to a new day in your health. Let me encourage you, don’t do like they did and say, “I’ve had this sickness for years,” or, “My obstacles are too big. I’ll never

get any good breaks.” No. Shake that off and let this seed of faith take root.

You must have the attitude: It’s my time, this may look permanent but I say through Christ in me it’s temporary. I’m not going to live my life defeated, depressed, or negative. I’m going to step in to my promise land. Situations are only permanent if we allow it to become permanent in our own minds.

In the book of Genesis, Isaac was talking to his son Esau when he said something so interesting. He said Esau, your brother has tricked me and he has carried away your blessing. This is saying someone or something can carry away our blessing.

I’m sure sometimes we’ve let disappointment carry away our blessing.

Sometimes we let discouragement carry away a blessing. No doubt at times we’ve all let other people steal our blessing. I don’t know about you but this does something to me on the inside; it makes me more determined than ever that I am going to stand in faith and not allow any one or anything to carry away my blessings.

I dare you to reclaim your blessings. The great thing about God is it’s never too late. You can reclaim lost blessings. Maybe you didn’t go into the promise land the first time when you were SO BLESSINGS, See page 12A

Plan Backwards

The Mind Matters

By Patricia Lynn Belkowitz, C.Ht., EFT-CC When we set a goal, we think about it as a future event, situation or experience. We set a date. It is something in the distance… a destination at the end of a journey. One way to move forward to meet a big goal is to plan backwards.

When your goal is complex or requires the passage of time for completion, you need to break it down into more “doable” goals. A doable goal requires less time to see the results. It’s important to recognize the successful completion of every step along the way to your success. Remember, there is no express elevator to achieving success. You have to take one step at a time. Recognizing your progress helps to motivate you to continue.

You have the end in sight.

Setting up step by step goals

Beyond the Rhetoric

Harry C. Alford

By Harry C. Alford Part I Professional sports around the world can be proud of the social improvement that has evolved. Soccer in Europe has advanced immensely.

A few years ago I was in a waiting room at a French government office. One of the French employees was watching a professional soccer game and he blurted out in English “That’s all you see playing these games – Africans!” I responded with a smile, “Get ready that is how American basketball started.” He nodded with a smile of surrender. Sports, big time money sports, is a meritocracy. Owners have the final say on who will play, coach or be traded. The games are about who gets the most money.

The winners are the ones with the greatest Television Value, ticket sales and marketing schemes. Professional sports generate trillions of dollars around the world. It also creates god-like heroes with unlimited influence that

can last through generations.

This is a capitalistic society and that is why racism has been withering away.

Two of the greatest football coaching legends, Paul “Bear” Bryant and John McKay together developed a scheme to make Black football stars play at their famous schools. Coach Bryant could not recruit Blacks for fear of being fired and black balled forever. John McKay was frustrated because he could not play quality teams in the southern schools because the fans would not allow it. Coach Bryant rightfully feared that southern schools like his Alabama would soon be losing after season Bowl Championships because he had no Blacks on his teams like the giant programs of Ohio State, University of Southern California and UCLA, etc.

These two geniuses developed a plan. It was clear USC was going to have the best team over the next three years. Bryant was restrained by the race conscious programs in the South. All of the great Black talent were starting to populate northern and western programs. Bingo!

They decided to schedule each other for a preseason contest. It was a struggle but somehow it happened: Multi-racial USC Trojans vs. all white Alabama Crimson Tide as the first college game of the season and in racist

Birmingham, Alabama.

They played it correctly!

It was Diversity versus Jim Crow. The mighty Trojans came onto the field with a majority of Blacks (unafraid, muscular Blacks with all the speed and braggadocio in the world). With each first down and touchdown, they flaunted their God given talents.

As the late and great Muhammad Ali would say, “The Trojans shook up the world!” Every white football fan in the South was horrified. Integrated schools in the rest of the country were having field trips to the South and generated hundreds of Black football stars for their schools. One NCAA announcer who worked that trailblazing event entered a Birmingham restaurant for breakfast and sat next to a table of sulking Alabama fans.

One of the fans shouted, “I know what Bear needs to do. He needs to go out and recruit some of those colored boys for Bama!” The rest of the table shouted “That’s right!!” Yes indeed, it shook up the world. After the game, Coach Bryant sent Coach McKay a request. He wanted him to send their star running back, Sam “The Bam” Cunningham. When Sam came over, the Bear told his team to, “all stand up, walk by and shake the hand of a perfect football player”. Sam had a great pro career playing for SPORTS, See page 12A

can also help you to be more aware and conscious of any changes or deviations that need to be made.

Let’s say you want to lose 20 pounds. Obviously, this is not a goal you can achieve in a weekend. In order to lose the 20 pounds, you need to start planning backwards to break the goal down into little, easily achievable goals. Imagine that you want to lose two pounds every week. This is a doable goal. To lose two pounds, you need to cut your caloric intake or increase your caloric burn.

It requires 3500 extra calories to gain a pound, which means that it would take 7000 less calories to lose those two pounds. If you break that down, you see that you need to eliminate 1000 calories each day to achieve your goal. This is a doable goal. Many people

By Jesse Jackson Sexual boasting, emails, tax returns, deplorables — the second presidential debate Sunday featured insults wrapped up in put-downs.

This debate was held within miles of Ferguson, Mo., but it was never mentioned. The citizens who offered questions asked about issues — health care, the Supreme Court, energy. The moderators peddled scandals — and elicited insults.

Some things are clear.

Donald Trump has no clue how insulting he is when he makes his brazen appeal to Black and Latino voters, promising to “do things that

thankful I am engaged with my purpose in life.

When starting a business, most entrepreneurs begin by articulating their mission, vision, and values. These critically important elements to any good business plan are about your intent for your business. Equally important, however, is the positioning statement.

The positioning statement for your company or brand is about your public.

Positioning is the feelings, image and idea of who and what your brand is that you want people, your customers in particular, to hold in their minds.

What do you want people to have in their minds when they see your logo or brand name, hear your brand mentioned in conversation, or see your advertisement?

For an entrepreneur, it probably ties in to your personal mission and purpose in life.

I help you come back to your center and discover or rediscover and get in touch with your sense of meaning and purpose and define it in practical, business terms.

When you know what your passion in life is and fully engage with it, you center your positioning on an idea that lines up and is congruent with your passion. You make the purpose of that passion visible through the business you do and how you do business.

What do you want your customers to understand about your business?

That’s great, but Trump has offered no plan to accomplish this. He asks us only to

trust him. But someone who has fanned the flames of racial resentment in his campaign, trashed Mexicans and Muslims and insulted women is not exactly a person to gain a lot of trust.

State News LAAAWPPI’s Women in Action Runner-sponsored Legislation Honors Local Leaders Expanding Veterans' Property Tax

LOS ANGELES, CA -In the climb up the corporate ladder, African American women must overcome many challenges to reach top management and leadership positions. Barriers facing African American women in business include negative, race-based stereotypes; more frequent question of their credibility and authority and a lack of institutional support. Despite the “concrete ceiling,” more than ever before, African American women have risen to become leaders in the workforce and provide invaluable service to their communities.

The Los Angeles African American Women’s Political Policy Institute’s (LAAAWPPI) Women in Action Gala Awards Reception saluted four successful women who have broken through the concrete ceiling in their professions and made a significant impact in their communities through social, civic and public engagement. Two of the women who will be recognized are Sydney Kamlager-Dove, district director for Senator Holly J. Mitchell and a member of the Los Angeles Community College District Board (LACCD) of Trustees and Dr. Tumani S. Moore-Leatherwood, former Physician-in-Charge at the Kaiser Permanente South Los Angeles Medical Offices. The Women in Action Gala Awards Reception took place on Thursday, October 13, at the Millennium Biltmore Hotel, 506 South Grand in downtown Los Angeles.

LACCD is the largest community college district in the nation, serving more than 250,000 students every year across a district that spans nearly 900 square miles. Kamlager-Dove is only the fourth African American to be elected to the Los Angeles Community College District Board of Trustees since 2001.

In her role as district director for California State Senator Holly J. Mitchell (D-30), Ms. KamlagerDove is responsible for the daily and strategic operations of Sen. Mitchell’s district office, including legislative and constituent initiatives, communications and programs.

Permanente’s South Los Angeles Medical Office, Dr. Leatherwood oversaw the operations and delivery of care across specialties including Family Medicine, Obstetrics and Gynecology, and Pediatrics.

Dr. Moore-Leatherwood provided leadership for several medical programs in the South Los Angeles clinic. She extended Kaiser Permanente’s reach beyond the medical facility by producing numerous examination room videos and webinar presentations of many critical health issues such as Hypertension and the African American Patient, the Top Ten Tips for Staying Healthy, Gaining Trust with the African American Patient, and Flu Vaccinations.

“It is an honor for LAAAWPPI to recognize the accomplishments and service these women have provided to our community,” said LAAAWPPI President Angela Gibson-Shaw.

“We hope that by showcasing their contributions, others will be encouraged to follow in their footsteps.”

Sacramento - Governor Brown has signed legislation (SB 1458) sponsored

by Board of Equalization Member George Runner and authored by Senator Patricia Bates (R-Laguna Niguel) that expands eligibility for the state's property tax exemption to disabled military veterans who were discharged under "other than honorable conditions."

"We should do everything we can to honor veterans injured as a result of their service," said Runner. "By making this small change, more California veterans will be given access to a benefit offered to them by a state grateful for their sacrifices."

Before this bill was signed, only veterans who received an honorable discharge were eligible for California's disabled veterans' property tax exemption. This includes veterans

Senator Patricia Bates

Board of Equalization Member George Runner

who have a service-related 100% disability rating from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and are receiving all federal benefits related to their service.

SB 1458 expands the disabled veterans' exemption eligibility by changing the state requirement that a veteran's character of discharge from military ser-

vice be under "honorable" conditions to the standard of "other than dishonorable" conditions. This bill does not provide any benefit to those discharged under dishonorable conditions.

As a tax levy, SB 1458 becomes law immediately, but for practical reasons will not take effect until January 1, 2017.

Jackson Issues Statement on Veto of Her New Parent Leave Act

SACRAMENTO – Governor Jerry Brown vetoed a California Legislative Women’s Caucus priority bill authored by Senator Hannah-Beth Jackson (DSanta Barbara), the New Parent Leave Act. Senate Bill 654, which received bipartisan support as it passed through the Legislature, would have provided jobprotected new parent leave for up to 2.7 million more Californians who work for smaller companies.

Due to an inequity in current law, employees who work for companies with 49 or fewer employees pay into the state’s Paid Family Leave Program but lack job-protection given to employees who work for companies of 50 or more. SB 654 would have ensured that employees who work for companies with between 20 and 49 employees do not risk being fired for taking six weeks of bonding time to care for a newborn or newly adopted child.

“I’m deeply disappoint-

ed in today’s veto. This bill would have corrected an inequity in current law that leaves millions of new parents without the ability to take advantage of the Paid Family Leave Program they already pay into without the fear they could lose their jobs if they do. This year, the Governor signed a bill, AB 908, which increases the wage replacement rate for those who take Paid Family Leave.

Yet with today’s veto, millions of Californians who work for smaller companies will not be able to benefit from that important measure that Brown signed into law because they could lose their jobs if they do. I believe everyone deserves the basic right to take time off to care for a newborn.

SACRAMENTO – California Department of Public Health (CDPH) Director and State Public Health Officer Dr. Karen Smith announced the intent to award more than $1.9 million grant to help reduce mental health disparities in Native American communities.

CDPH’s California Reducing Disparities Project (CRDP) will distribute the funding to the California Rural Indian Health Board (CRIHB), a Sacramento-based organization that has served the Native American population for 47 years and has worked to develop common policies on health care issues.

“CDPH recognizes that many of the promising mental health services in our most diverse communities need additional support in order to improve their effectiveness,” said Dr. Smith. “The Department is committed to fund-

ing organizations that are doing meaningful work in their communities to reduce mental health disparities among groups of people who have historically been underserved.”

CRIHB has long been a central focal point for Native American health in California and will help ensure that the CRDP resources reach communities and individuals in need of services. The organization works to improve the health status and social conditions of Native Americans by providing advocacy, shared resources, training, and technical assistance.

The California Reducing Disparities Project will award a total of $60 million to 41 grant recipients statewide between 2016 and 2022. The CRDP is funded by the Mental Health Services Act (Proposition 63) that was passed in November 2004.

$4.63M STEM grant

THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- The U.S. Department of Education has awarded California Lutheran University a $4.63 million grant to support students studying science, technology, engineering and mathematics.

Most recipients of the highly competitive grants for Hispanic-Serving Institutions are public colleges.

In 2011, the last time the grants were awarded, only two of about 40 recipients in California were private universities like Cal Lutheran.

The university will receive $855,132 this year, and the annual award amount will increase each year of the five-year grant.

The funding will enable Cal Lutheran to hire four staff members, start several new programs, provide paid student research fellowships and internships, and transform a building on campus into a hub for services to the rapidly increasing number of STEM students.

The main goal is to improve retention rates for the increasing numbers of Latino and low-income students. Latinos make up 28 percent of Cal Lutheran’s STEM students, but those who start out in these majors as freshmen are less likely to graduate in the majors than other students.

The grant will fund a STEM Academy, which will

provide continuous summer programs for cohorts of students called STEM Scholars. Incoming freshmen and transfer students will attend a three-week residential program on campus before classes begin. During subsequent summers, they will participate in paid research fellowships, internships and professional development activities.

Faculty mentors will meet regularly with students to advise them on completing their degrees, building their resumes and planning their career paths.

Studies show that faculty mentors are particularly important in retaining minority students.

Peer tutoring will be centralized and expanded, and student-led review sessions for tough STEM courses will begin, benefiting all

of the university’s students when they take science and math courses. Workshops for faculty, staff, tutors and peer mentors will cover best practices for teaching and advising underrepresented students.

Cal Lutheran will also work to increase the pipeline of incoming students.

A new transfer outreach coordinator will work directly with Ventura County Community College District students, counselors and faculty. The coordinator will help students interested in the STEM fields transition to Cal Lutheran and set themselves up for success.

STEM Scholars will present activities at elementary, middle and high schools, and K-12 and community college students will have opportunities to participate in programs at Cal Lutheran.

(NewsUSA) - Sponsored News - If only we could keep our kids in a bubble, insulated from the atrocities the world would inflict on them. Along with the normal worries any parent has for his or her child, you can add child identity theft to the list as well.

According to IdentityTheftFacts.com, on average, victims of child identity theft have roughly $12,000 worth of fraudulent debt.

In this way, it is imperative for parents to treat their children's information in much the same way as they treat their own information in order to prevent identity fraud.

In addition, a recent Child Identity Fraud Report, sponsored by the Identity Theft Assistance Center (ITAC) and conducted by Javelin Strategy & Research, found that 1 in 40 households with minor children (under age 18) had at least one child whose personal information was compromised by identity criminals. All of this is to say that, clearly, this is a problem that parents need to pay attention to.

Couple all of this with breaches affecting children in the commercial sector, such as that at VTech Holdings Ltd., a Hong Kongbased digital-learning toy maker, and you have a recipe for future financial disaster that could go undetected for years. In that case, the company admitted that in December of 2015, names, genders, and birth dates of 6.5 million of its child users were exposed

in a data breach. About 2.9 million were U.S. children, according to the Wall Street Journal, which first reported the story.

"It's a predatory crime that affects families," Virginia State Police Lt. Robert P. Chappell Jr., of Roanoke, Va., told the Deseret News in a phone interview.

"I know how to recognize it and the steps to prevent it, as well as how to deal with the emotional aspects of it," he said.

One such way that parents can protect their kid's identity is by keeping their digital footprint and information safe and secure.

And now there is a simple cost-effective way to do that with the Gabriel app.

The Gabriel app, available at the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store, was designed and built with personal privacy and security as its foundation by VirnetX, an Internet security software and

technology company.

For only $50 per year for five users, family members are assured that their communications -- when they talk, video, chat, text, email, or share photos or documents -- are safe and secure.

No one will be able to see, hear, or intercept your communications other than the party you are in contact with because Gabriel does not transmit or store its data with any third party, not even VirnetX. It is person-to-person, end-to-end encryption that all but eliminates opportunities for hackers.

Other benefits include: • Making free voice or video calls or sending IMs (instant messages) to other Gabriel users.

• Receiving spamless email.

Sports News Miami Marlins Wear — Then Retire — No. 16 In Honor Of Jose Fernandez Miami Marlins players wearing a jersey in honor of pitcher Jose Fernandez (16) gather around the pitching mound before a baseball game against the New York Mets, in Miami. Fernandez died in a boating accident.

By Chris D’Angelo and Landess Kearns In its first game since star pitcher Jose Fernandez was killed in a boating accident, an emotional Miami Marlins team took to the field with every player dressed in their fallen teammate’s jersey.

It will be last time a Marlins player will ever wear No. 16. Team owner Jeffrey Loria announced the team is retiring Fernandez’s number.

A brief moment of silence was followed by a somber rendition of “Take Me Out To The Ballgame” on trumpet. Players wiped away tears as pictures of Fernandez were displayed on the giant screen inside Marlins Park.

As the national anthem came to a close, New York Mets and Marlins players met one another on the field to embrace in what one commentator described as an “extraordinary moment.”

Tiger Woods Booted From Ryder Cup Team Photo

By Ed Mazza Not too long ago, Tiger Woods was the biggest name in golf and the best player in the world. Today, he can’t even get in a group photo.

Woods is not playing in the Ryder Cup, but he is serving as a vice captain for the U.S. team. When Woods tried to get into the group portrait, he was unceremoniously shooed away.

Either misunderstanding the order or playfully trying to slip back in, Woods then

Tiger Woods

worked his way into the group on the other side. According to a clip posted by Golf Channel, he was again

told to scram.

Everyone, including Woods, laughed.

“I forgot I wasn’t playing,” Woods joked afterward, per Golf.com.

He was allowed to appear in the larger group picture that included players and vice-captains: Woods won 14 golf majors in his storied career, second only to the 18 won

by Jack Nicklaus. However, Woods’ career was derailed both on the course and off, and he hasn’t won a major since the 2008 U.S. Open.

Sidelined by back injuries, the onetime number one player in the world is currently ranked 754th by the PGA.

The Marlins’ Twitter account summed up the moment perfectly: “Bigger than baseball,” a tweet reads.

The Marlins then gathered around the pitcher’s mound, where the number 16 was painted in honor of Fernandez. Players kneeled, bowing their heads and touching and writing in the dirt.

“You can see the players rubbing the dirt on their pants,” a commentator said. “Jose Fernandez in Cuba grew up without rosin bags, and so from Cuba to high school in Tampa into the major leagues, Fernandez would use the dirt on the mound and rub it on the side of his pants, would not use the rosin bags. And that’s how he kept his hand dry.”

The team then gathered in a tight huddle, surrounded by deafening applause from the stands. Multiple team members could be seen holding back tears. “We’re going to find a way to do this,” outfielder Giancarlo Stanton can be heard saying to the team in a video posted to the Marlins’ Twitter account.

Mets players also paid tribute to the late Fernandez, hanging a jersey with his name and number in their dugout.

As a salute to Fernandez, Marlins second baseman and leadoff batter Dee Gordon, a lefty batter, stepped to the plate batting right and wearing Fernandez’s batting helmet. After taking the first pitch, Gordon swapped the helmet for his own, and switched to the left-handed batters’ box. With a 2-0 count, Gordon homered to right field to give the Marlins the early 1-0 lead.

As he rounded the bases, he was overcome with emotion and broke down in tears when he reached home plate. It was his first home run of the season.

The Marlins defeated the Mets 7-3. After securing the win, Miami players once again gathered around the pitcher’s mound to honor Fernandez. The crowd chanted “Jose, Jose, Jose, Jose” as Marlins players left their hats, many adorned with Fernandez’s number and initials, on the mound.

Former USC Football Player Sues NCAA Over ‘Unpaid Wages’

By Travis Waldron College athletes are employees who should be paid wages, a former University of Southern California football player asserts in a lawsuit filed against the NCAA and the PAC 12 Conference.

Lamar Dawson, who played linebacker at USC from 2011 to 2015, filed the proposed class-action suit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California.

The lawsuit differs from other high-profile cases against the NCAA, which have alleged that the governing organization for college sports has violated antitrust law by placing artificial caps on the amount of money athletes can receive.

This suit, by contrast, contends that athletes meet the definition of “employ-

Lamar Dawson (55) says the NCAA and PAC-12 violated federal and state wage and hour laws while he was a football player at USC.

ees” under both federal and California state wage and hour laws, and that the NCAA and PAC-12 violated those laws by not properly compensating them for work and overtime. Players, it says, were required to work more than eight hours a day and 40 hours a week without adequate compensation, and the suit seeks unpaid wages, overtime pay and damages.

At USC, Dawson was “repeatedly paid a substandard wage insofar as he was denied full pay for all hours worked, including overtime pay, and was frequently permitted to work without receiving required minimum wage payments,” according to the suit.

Both the PAC-12 and NCAA said they disagreed

with the claim.

“We are currently evaluating the claim, but strongly disagree with the notion that college students participating in athletics are employees,” NCAA chief legal officer Donald Remy said in an email statement. “Our experience is that these college students, like their non-athlete colleagues, are very focused on their academic endeavors. Moreover, they have a passion for their sport and a commitment to their teammates that can’t be equated to punching a time clock.”

The suit’s claim rests on the argument that under NCAA and conference rules, school athletic programs exert enough control over athletes to qualify them as employees under federal and state labor law.

Browns’ Josh Gordon To Enter Rehab

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon will put his football career on hold after the team announced that Gordon will enter an in-patient rehabilitation facility.

Gordon, who was suspended for the first four games in 2016, was scheduled to play his first game since 2014 on Oct. 9, but instead he is out indefinitely.

“After careful thought and deep consideration I’ve decided that I need to step away from pursuing my return to the Browns and my football career to enter an in-patient rehabilitation facility,” Gordon said in a statement.

“This is the right decision for me and one that I hope will enable me to gain full control of my life and continue on a path to reach my full potential as a person.

I appreciate the support of the NFL, NFLPA, the

Browns, my teammates, my agent and the community through this extremely challenging process.”

Gordon was suspended in March after his latest failed drug test. He was reinstated in July.

Suspensions for violating the league’s substance abuse policy have caused Gordon to miss 30 of the Brown’s 35 games.

National News Police Officer Shatters Windshield Hillary Clinton Speaks About of His Police Cruiser Systemic Racism At Historic With Handcuffed Man’s Face Black North Carolina Church

Dash cam video shows Pele Smith being slammed into a police cruiser so hard that the windshield cracked.

Lorain, OH — Newly released footage shows a police officer from Lorain, Ohio slamming Pele Smith, a 32-year old African American man who was handcuffed at the time, into his police cruiser so hard that it cracked the windshield, and caused the glass to shatter.

The incident happened back in 2014, but the dash cam video was obtained last month exclusively

by NBC’s local affiliate WKYC, and it clearly be seen that instead of opening the car door for Smith and placing him in the backseat, the officer escorting him throws him

against the hood and windshield of his vehicle. Afterwards, Smith can be heard saying, “Bro… bro… why did you do that to me?”

After the incident, Smith was reported treated at a local hospital for injuries to his face. He has since filed a civil rights lawsuit against the city and the four officers involved seeking unspecified damages, citing excessive force.

But why was he even being arrested?

Officers were reportedly investigating a drug complaint in the area, and Smith reportedly tried to destroy drug evidence by swallowing it. He also re-

Georgia Elementary School Educator Fired After Allegedly Calling

Michelle Obama A ‘Gorilla’

By Ed Mazza An elementary school employee in Georgia was fired this week after it was revealed that she allegedly posted racist messages on Facebook.

Jane Wood Allen, who served as a teacher’s aide at the Chestatee Elementary School in Gainesville, allegedly called first lady Michelle Obama a “gorilla” in an August Facebook post.

“I admire a gorilla more than I admire her (Wait, I forgot, she is a gorilla),” Allen allegedly wrote while linking to an article noting that Obama was one of the most admired women in the world.

Allen also allegedly stated that Obama was “the worst example of a First Lady ever! (Oh sorry, I meant gorilla not First Lady)!” More recently, she allegedly described the first lady as a “poor gorilla.”

Her posts, which have been deleted along with her entire Facebook presence, were preserved by a number of social media users, including University of Houston teaching assistant Roni Dean-Burren, whose post went viral: The school’s Facebook page was also removed, but the district posted on its page that Allen had been fired.

“Effective Monday, Oct. 3, Jane Wood Allen has been relieved from

duty and is no longer an employee of Forsyth County Schools,” the district said in a statement released online, adding: Racism and discrimination are not tolerated in our school district. We are committed to ongoing staff training on the acceptance of all individuals. As this is a personnel matter, the district will provide no further comment.

Allen’s name has already been removed from the school’s online directory.

Forsyth County News reported that this was the second time this year that a district employee had been in trouble for comments posted on social media. A principal was placed on leave for six days after posting anti-Islamic messages on Facebook. However, he was allowed to return to his job.

portedly “physically resisted officers” as they tried to retrieve the evidence. Smith was later charged with tampering with evidence, obstructing official business, and resisting arrest.

Police chief defends the officer’s actions Instead of disciplining the officer for excessive force, the county’s local police chief, Cel Rivera, is defending the officer’s actions.

He says the department denies all allegations in the lawsuit, and insists that the video can easily be “misunderstood” by the public.

He said in a statement, “I would caution observers to not rush to judgment relative to the actions of the police officers on scene.

Although it is not easy to watch, police officers explain all of their actions in their police reports.”

By Carol Kuruvilla Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton paid a visit to a historic black church, mixing Bible verses with frank talk about the “implicit bias” and systemic racism that still exists in America.

Clinton took to the pulpit at Little Rock AME Zion Church, a church in Charlotte, North Carolina, whose members have been involved in protests against the police shooting of Keith Scott, a 43-yearold black man, on Sept. 20.

The candidate spoke about Scott’s death, and the death of Terence Crutcher, a black father from Tulsa, Oklahoma who was killed by police days earlier. She also mentioned the stories of two young residents of Charlotte, Taje Gaddy, 10, and Zianna Oliphant, 9, who testified before Charlotte’s City Council last week.

“I wouldn’t be able to stand it if my grandchildren had to be scared and worried the way too many children across our country feel right now. But because my grandchildren are white, because they are the grandchildren of a former president and secretary of state, let’s be honest here, they won’t face the kind of fear that we heard from the children testifying before the city council,” Clinton said during the speech.

Clinton invited Oliphant, who was in the audience, to stand next to her on the pulpit ― lamenting about how the little girl who should be “dreaming about all the wonderful things that her fu-

ture holds for her” is instead “talking about graveyards” and the violence facing her community.

While saying that the families of fallen police officers “deserve our prayers,” Clinton acknowledged that “implicit bias” against people of color has a substantial impact on black communities. She sees it in the way black men are far more likely to be stopped and searched by police, how they are more sentenced to longer prison terms than white men for the same crime.

“We need to make sure our police officers are trained in de-escalating tense situations,” she said, receiving a round of applause from the church.

Quoting Proverbs 29:18, which reads, “Where there is no vision, the people perish,” Clinton called for

a common vision of an America where every child has the chance to “live up to their God-given potential.”

“God loves us all, right?

And we are called to care for and cherish each other,” she said. “Protecting all of God’s children is America’s calling.”

Clinton was scheduled to visit Charlotte one week ago, but postponed the trip after Scott’s death. Polls indicate that the race between Clinton and her Republican opponent Donald Trump is tight in North Carolina, which has traditionally been a red state.

Clinton hasn’t been doing as well as Barack Obama did in 2008 and 2012 with the state’s younger voters. Still, according to The Associated Press, if Clinton wins North Carolina, there’s little that Trump could do to stop her from winning the presidency.

A guide to the slick things you can do

How to Tackle Your Grocery Bill

with Apple's overhauled messaging app

By Nathaniel Sillin Food shopping can quickly take over your budget despite your best intentions. Perhaps it's due to impulse purchases, unplanned shopping trips, food going bad or a combination of all three. If you're looking for ways to save money while enjoying nutritious and delicious meals, consider these money-saving tactics.

Stick to your budget to save time and money.

Look at your food budget before making a trip to the store. If you don't have one yet, figure out your overall budget including food costs with a simple budget worksheet. Knowing how much you want to spend and actually spent can help you make informed decisions.

Plan out the week's meals with your budget in mind. If you make dishes that rely on the same staples, you can save money

by using leftovers to create a new dish. But mix things up to avoid boredom.

Make your trip to the grocery store even easier with a shopping list.

Sticking to a list can help limit food waste and make it easy to get in and out of the grocery store. If you share food shopping duties with a spouse or partner, you can avoid double purchases by using grocery apps that let you create and sync shopping lists.

Stack different discounts and deals to rack up savings. Once you enter the grocery store, it's time to put your plan into action. Plan for the occasional indulgence and let yourself make impulse purchases occasionally, but try to stick to the list.

You can also often save money at grocery stores by joining the store's loyalty program. Members

(NewsUSA) - Sponsored News - It's that time of year when the weather turns crisp, colors brighten, and there are a dwindling number of perfect days left to relax outside or take one more drive, ride, or trip to the lake.

Too soon, it will be time to put away your classic car, boat, motorcycle, and patio furniture, until warm weather arrives again.

Proper storage techniques are super important to keep your gear in great shape and running order. To make sure you are ready to roll next spring, we've compiled a list of simple storage tips: • Storing your classic car or motorcycle. It's important to clean and remove all road grime, dust and other debris from all interior and exterior surfaces before storing. Then, after cleaning, make sure to protect hard surfaces and finished leather with 303 Automotive Protectant.

Also, remember that old gas breaks down over time and

can lead to gummed-up fuel lines, carburetors and injectors. To avoid these issues, fill your fuel tank 95 percent full with fresh gas and add a quality fuel stabilizer such as STA-BIL Storage to keep the gas fresh for as long as 24 months. After the stabilizer is added, run the engine for a few minutes to ensure that the stabilizer gets into all parts of the fuel system.

• Storing your boat and water equipment. It's best to do a thorough cleaning of your boat to avoid any deterioration while it sits in storage. Start by removing all the dirt and grime from the boat's surfaces with a clean-

er such as 303 Marine Citrus Cleaner & Degreaser, and protect the exterior of the boat with 303 Marine Quick Wax. Moving to the inside, similarly to the classic car, fill the gas tank 95 percent full with fresh fuel and add a fuel stabilizer. Store your boat in a cool, dry place and cover it to keep dust away.

• Storing your small engine equipment. Most fuel available today contains ethanol, and ethanol can wreak havoc on small engines if they're not treated before storage. Over time, the water and ethanol will separate and sink to the STORE, See page 12A

A home renovation can be an overwhelming experience with high stakes for your clients. There’s creating the overall vision of the project, gauging its financial feasibility, finding a reliable contractor, and hoping for a smooth construction process. But an important consideration that often falls by the wayside is making sure the project is adequately insured.

Here five insurance tips that can help keep you financially sound as they consider a home renovation.

1. Notify the insurance company before the renovation.

Home remodels, big or small, typically increase the value of the home and the risk borne by it—and the homeowners insurance policy should reflect this.

If homeowners fail to notify the insurer and don’t reconsider coverage offerings for the home, they could be surprised by more than the “big reveal.” They

should also account for any new items purchased for the renovation, like appliances or furniture.

2. Confirm the general contractor is licensed and bonded.

Before you greenlight a project, check that the general contractor is licensed and carries a surety bond.

If the contractor fails to complete the project per the contracted agreement, the surety bond could cover the financial losses incurred as a result. The agreement should also mandate the compliance of building codes and proper permits.

Additionally, it’s critical that a contractor carries workers’ compensation and liability insurance, and that your clients ask to see both certificates. The contractor should be responsible for not only property damage, but also negligent workmanship and injuries sustained on the job.

3. Confirm coverage for any subcontracted workers.

For many home renova-

tions, general contractors will subcontract builders, electricians and plumbers. Because these employees don’t work for the contractor full-time, they’re typically not included in their workers’ compensation policy. As with a contractor, a homeowner should verify that subcontractors have liability insurance.

4. Consider purchasing builder’s risk insurance.

Building materials and equipment belonging to the contractor or subcontractors aren’t covered by homeowners insurance.

A builder’s risk insurance policy, however, extends coverage to equipment or building materials that have yet to be installed or transported to the work area on the property.

5. Confirm the contractor has completed operations insurance.

Completed operations insurance offers a safety net for things that go awry once the project is considered PROJECTS, See page 12A

get exclusive discounts, and some programs offer additional savings at partner stores. Check your membership account online or with the app before checking out, as some programs have electronic coupons that you need to "clip" to get the savings.

One way to increase your grocery budget is to use one, or several, of the apps that give you cash back when you buy groceries. Sometimes you can even earn cash back on general purchases like a loaf of bread or a gallon of milk.

Depending on the app and food, you may need to verify the purchase by scanning the barcode and sending a picture of your receipt.

Five Insurance Tips for Home Renovation Projects

By David Pogue Most people are really digging iOS 10, the new, free operating system for the iPhone. But unless you’re 12 years old and already used to apps like WhatsApp and Facebook (FB) Messenger, you might find the new Messages app to be just a tad cluttered and confusing.

Apple, wary of losing customers to creative messaging apps like What’s App, Google’s Allo, and Facebook Messenger, has radically overhauled its Messages.

Its special effects and cool interactions easily match most offerings of rival apps—and, thanks to a new Messages app store, even surpasses them. There are so many creative ways to express yourself now that “Oh, sorry—you must not have picked up on my tone over texting” will no longer cut it as an excuse.

Text-message conversations no longer look like a tidy screenplay. Now they can be overrun with graphics, cartoons, animations, and typographic fun.

Meet the new Messages The first thing you might notice is that the Send button no longer says Send. It’s now a blue up-arrow. And it’s more than a button. If you hard-press (or long-press) the blue arrow, you get a palette of four new sending styles. (NOTE: This menu of animations does not open if, in Settings, you’ve turned on Accessibility -> Reduce Motion. Bizarre.)

The first three—Slam, Loud, and Gentle—animate the typography of

Left: The Bubble Effects palette. Right: Invisible Ink, before and after you drag your finger across it.

your text to make it bang down, swell up, and so on.

The fourth special “Send with effect” is called Invisible Ink (above, right). It obscures your message with animated glitter dust until your recipient drags a finger across it.

This idea is great for guessing games and revealing dramatic news, of course. But when you’re sending, ahem, spicy text messages, it also prevents embarrassment if the recipient’s phone is lying in public view.

When you hard-press (or long-press) the blue Send arrow, the fifth option is Screen. It opens a palette of full-screen animations, which fill the entire background of the Messages window to indicate your reaction to something—fireworks or falling confetti, for example. Swipe horizontally to preview each style before you commit to it.

Meet the drawer Most of the new Messages goodness is hiding in a “draw-

Yuneec Breeze:

er” that contains three buttons.

If you don’t see all three, tap the > button like this: From left to right, those icons represent Photos, Digital Touch, and Apps.

Photos If you want to send a photo to your conversation partner, you’ll find that it now takes two taps to see your photos: Once to open the drawer, and once on the Photos button.

Digital Touch The second drawer button, the Heart icon, opens a palette of crazy interactive art features, mostly inherited from the Apple Watch.

The App icon Apple has created an app store just for add-ons to the Messages app. You can download “stickers” or animations, look through movie trailers and showtimes, exchange music files, plan a trip, send cash, play games, and on and on—right there in Messages, collaboratively with your buddy on the other end.

The idiotproof $500 drone with 4K video

There’s no shortage of drones to choose from.

That’s lucky for anyone who’s intrigued by their ability to break free of our two-dimensional earthly existence, or for anyone who’s attracted to the way drones revolutionize farming, search and rescue, construction, engineering, forestry, firefighting, law enforcement, filmmaking, and photography.

What’s weird, though, is that the drones available to us normal people tend to fall into two categories.

On the low end, there are glorified remote-control helicopters, with crummy cameras and toylike software; on the high end, there are your DJI Phantoms and Yuneec Typhoons, which are amazing, but complex and expensive—$1200 or $1300 for the nice ones.

With its new Breeze drone, Yuneec has attempted to create a drone for the rest of us. It has whittled away everything the company doesn’t think you really need for everyday aerial photography—a standalone remote control unit, motorized landing gear, 25-minute battery, and obstacleavoidance sensors. What remain are the essentials, like a very good 4K video camera, sensors for maintaining position indoors, and extremely easy-to-use software.

For this, Yuneec charges $500—a new low for a drone of this sophistication.

(Its closest competitors are the older Parrot Bebop 2, whose camera can’t move or tilt and isn’t 4K, and the Dobby, which flies for only 8 min-

utes and can’t return to its takeoff point. The aging Phantom 3 isn’t really in the same class—it’s big, complex, and doesn’t have 4K video, although it has a 25-minute battery and rotating camera—but it also costs $500.)

A shiny white bubble Every drone lives by the same painful equation: battery life = drone size The battery is by far the heaviest piece of a consumer drone. So if you want more flying time, you have to settle for a bigger drone that can carry the heftier battery.

The Breeze is marketed not as a drone at all, but as a “flying camera.” The subtext: “You don’t really care about battery life or wireless range, because this thing’s really meant for selfies and short videos.”

So, the bad news: The Breeze battery life is only 12 minutes. Less, actually, because when the battery gets low, the thing beeps

and starts landing on its own.

There are three pieces of good news, though.

First, you get two of these batteries in the box, which is beyond fantastic; while one’s flying, the other can be charging.

Second, the battery recharges in about 30 minutes.

And third, the payoff for that short battery life is a very compact drone. The Breeze’s legs and propellers fold inward; the result is a shiny plastic capsule that you can easily pop into a backpack, purse, or man purse. It also comes with a hard plastic carrying case.

All drone companies grossly inflate their drones’ wireless range—how far they can fly and still be in contact with the remote.

The Breeze is rated at 260 feet; in the real world, I got about 200 feet before the drone lost signal. (Compare with a real-world range of 10,000 feet or more on the DJI Phantoms.)

Small thinking Hospitals recognize that safety must be built into systems, but efforts tend to be piecemeal. What’s needed is a top-to-bottom safety priority.

Highly visible info on infection rates shows administrators value transparency. Unrestricted visiting hours are a sign that the hospital considers families a valuable part of the care team. And note how nurses and doctors interact: A team approach indicates a mindset that helps identify and correct problems.

By Ruthie Hawkins According to The American Cancer Society, there will be an estimated “1,685,210 new cancer cases and 595,690 cancer deaths” in the U.S., this year alone. To add some perspective, that’s approximately 4.620 new cases and 1,60 deaths every day.

Of those cases, about 12,990 women will be diagnosed with invasive cervical cancer – leading to an estimated 4,120 deaths.

While over the last 40 years cervical cancer death rates have gone down more than 50% overall, these shocking statistics are certainly reason to stay informed, particularly Black women.

“Unfortunately, cervical cancer is more common in African-American women,” Dr. Idris Abdur-Rahman, board certified OB/ GYN and one half of Twin Doctors TV, told BlackDoctor.org. Dr. Abdur-Rahman added, “Because minority women tend to have less access to quality or regular healthcare, African-American and Hispanic women have higher rates of cervical dysplasia (pre-cancer) and cervical cancer than do Caucasian women.”

In general: • Cervical cancer tends to occur in midlife.

• Most cases are found in women younger than 50.

• Although it rarely develops in women younger

Twelve Medical Mistakes That Can Harm You

can cause huge headaches.

Make your care safer Be an assertive patient — but not an obnoxious one. Don’t act as if wellmeaning clinicians are deliberately screwing up your care, or threaten to call your lawyer. Be friendly and respectful, and don’t waste caregivers’ time on extraneous complaints they can’t do anything about.

Lax hygiene A 2016 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) report shows progress in reducing infections acquired during medical treatment. Yet hospital patients still pick up an estimated 721,800 infections a year.

Make your care safer If you don’t see doctors wash their hands before touching you or administering your care, ask them to do so.

Poor communication Details matter — and often get lost, especially when care transitions from one person, department

or facility to another. The most notable transition is the hospital shift change.

Make your care safer One of the most important things you can do is ask questions. The National Patient Safety Foundation says many situations become clearer with just three key questions: What is my main problem? What do I need to do? Why is it important for me to do this?

Dismal discharge planning It’s great that you’re going home. But you’re also at one of the most challenging and dangerous junctures in medicine. Instructions on medications, permissible activities, diet, physical therapy, home care and recommended follow-ups are dumped on outgoing patients all at once.

Make your care safer Repeat discharge instructions back to your doctor in your own words.

Be especially clear on what drugs you should — and shouldn’t — take.

Six Myths and Truths About Brain Health

By Beth Howard If memory lapses have you falling for every antiaging program you hear about on TV, relax. Keeping your brain young is actually pretty simple— and it doesn't involve popping pills or spending a fortune. Here, some common myths about the aging brain and how to make the most of your gray matter.

Myth: Brain aging is inevitable Fact: Although the brain naturally shrinks with age, you can plump it up with exercise. Researchers from the University of Illinois and the University of Pittsburgh assigned 120 older couch potatoes to either walk or stretch three times a week, then took MRIs of their brains. They found that walking increased the size of the hippocampus by 2 percent in one year.

Myth: Supplements can boost your memory Fact: There's conflicting evidence for popular substances like ginkgo biloba, which is touted for its cognitive benefits, says Gary W. Small, M.D., director of the UCLA Longevity Center and author of 2 Weeks to a Younger Brain. And though vitamin E has shown some benefit in slowing cognitive decline, the high doses required can also increase bleeding and other health risks. A better strategy: eating fish.

Research shows that the more you consume—up to three servings a week—the lower your risk of cognitive impairment. A UCLA study of people over age 65 showed that those who ate as little as one meal a week featuring fish had a higher volume of gray matter in the hippocampus,

ducted by Rush University in Chicago.

Myth: Brain games make you smarter Fact: In 2014, 70 of the world's leading brain scientists released a statement rejecting the notion that computerized brain training can improve your cognitive powers. Until more is known, you're better off sticking to proven brain boosters — from meditation to hanging out with friends.

Myth: Your mind gets worse with age Fact: The older brain actually has some big advantages. As brains age, the network of fibers that allow nerve cells to talk to each other gets richer. As a result, older people rely more on both sides of their brains than younger people do. This may account for both the wisdom and emotional balance that accrue with age. Plus, as the brain's right and left hemispheres get more integrated, your creative potential soars. Older adults also benefit from their superior “crystallized” intelligence, which includes the skills, knowledge and experience gained over a lifetime.

• Bleeding or spotting between periods, as well as having longer or heavier menstrual cycles.

• Bleeding after douching, or after a pelvic exam.

• Unusual discharge from the vagina containing blood which may occur between your periods or after menopause.

• Pain during sex.

Please note, these signs and symptoms can also be caused by conditions other than pre-cancers, like an infection. If you are experiencing any of these issues, you should see your doctor right away.

Ignoring symptoms only puts you at more risk, giving the infection or possible pre-cancer the opportunity to develop into a more advanced stage, lowering your chance for effective treatment.

etcetera,” Zonszein said.

“So, the long nap is just a marker of lifestyle.”

According to HealthDay, Dr. Gerald Bernstein of the Friedman Diabetes Program in Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City said the issue revolves around predisposition to diabetes.

The act of napping can cause blood sugar to rise.

So if you are known for long naps, and already exhibit the factors that lead to diabetes, such as unhealthy weight and genetics, that increase in blood sugar

may trigger the disease.

Type-2 diabetes is a blood-sugar disease that develops when the body doesn’t produce enough insulin, or the body’s cells don’t react to the insulin being produced. Therefore, glucose, or blood sugar, stays in the blood instead of being used by the body as fuel.

More than 13 percent of African Americans are living with some form of diabetes, which can lead to complications such as high blood pressure, heart attacks and stroke.

Like To Nap? It May Increase Your Risk For Diabetes

a key memory center in the brain.

Myth: Crossword puzzles boost brain power Fact: Doing the same thing over and over isn't challenging enough to spark new neural connections and power up your brain. But learning something new is. When researchers at the University of Texas at Dallas assigned older people to different activities, only those who learned a new skill, such as quilting, showed significant brain gains.

Myth: You can't stop Alzheimer's disease Fact: Medicine doesn't have a cure yet, but research suggests that eating well, reducing stress, staying engaged with others and stimulating your brain with new activities can at least slow this devastating neurodegenerative disease.

Employing just one such change can make a difference. Eating a Mediterranean-style diet featuring plenty of fruits and vegetables and very little meat or sweets can reduce your risk of Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia by as much as 53 percent, according to a study con-

than 20, many women don’t realize the risk of developing cervical cancer is present at any age.

• More than 15% of cases of cervical cancer are found in women over 65.

While women with early cervical cancers usually have no symptoms, these cases were rarely found in women who get regular pap tests. Unfortunately, in many cases, symptoms do not occur until a precancer becomes a true invasive cancer – aka, grows into nearby tissue.

Of course, there are several common warning signs to look out for, including: • Vaginal bleeding after sex.

• Bleeding after menopause.

By Nicole Brown Naptime could lead to type-2 diabetes if you’re not careful.

A new study found that people who nap for an hour or more are at an increased risk of developing the disease, according to Japanese researchers.

Naps less than an hour are fair game.

“People need to be aware that this study, and these findings, are just associations or markers of lifestyles rather than the cause of diabetes,” said Dr. Joel Zonszein of Montefiore Medical Center in New York City.

More than 300,000 people were analyzed for the study. The research team, led by Dr. Yamada Tomahide from the University of Tokyo, found that longer naps were linked to a 45-percent increase in developing type-2 diabetes.

Shorter naps – those less than an hour – had no risk.

“Maybe longer naps are short periods of sleep and more common in those individuals with long working hours, stress all day, working more than one job and maybe stress is associated with fast-food eating,

Mary J. Blige Explains Her Singing ‘Luke Cage’ Is ‘Kick Ass, Wu-Tang Blackness With A Marvel Twist’ Moment With Hillary Clinton

Hillary Clinton

Mary J. Blige

During a recent interview with Democratic Presidential Candidate Hillary Clinton on her new Apple Music show called The 411, R&B singer Mary J. Blige discussed womanhood, police brutality against, gun violence and Clinton’s plans for making change in the White House.

She also sang a capella for about a minute.

The song she sang was “American Skin (41 Shots),” which was originally recorded by Bruce Springsteen in 2000 as a reaction to the tragic 1999 killing of Amadou Diallo at the hands of the NYPD. But social went ablaze with people wondering why she chose to sing

that particular song.

Blige explains, “The lyrics resonated with me so deeply and so heavily, because of all of the shootings and the police brutality, and I never got a chance to say anything. So I got an opportunity to do an interview with Hillary Clinton, and somebody like me don’t ever get an opportunity like that, ever.”

She continues, “I’m a singer first before I’m a journalist. This journalist stuff is brand new, so that’s the only way I can express myself. The lyrics impacted me so heavily and so deeply – it made me cry, it’s like a prayer – that I needed Mrs. Clinton to be impacted the

same way. So the only way I can get that reaction from her is to sing it.”

When asked whether or not she would sing again in upcoming interviews, she comments, “That was just for Hillary Clinton, with that specific song, ‘American Skin.’ That won’t ever happen again. That was just for her. Come on, you have Hillary Clinton in the room, you’re gonna be the best of whatever you’re gonna be. You’re gonna try to make her feel the times that we’re in. She needed to feel that this whole police brutality mess is a nightmare. Are you with me on this?”

By Brennan Williams Marvel’s latest Netflix series, “Luke Cage,” can only be described as “unadulterated, bulletproof, kick ass, Wu-Tang blackness, with a Marvel twist,” says the show’s creator Cheo Hodari Coker.

Adapted from the 1970s Marvel comic book character of the same name, the Netflix action-drama series ― which stars Mike Colter, Mahershala Ali, Simone Missick, Rosario Dawson and Alfre Woodard ― is set in Harlem, New York. It tells the story of a wrongly convicted man, Luke Cage (played by Colter), who escapes prison after gaining super strength through an experiment before becoming a hero for hire.

Similar to other revised Marvel adapted television shows, “Daredevil” and “Jessica Jones,” Coker ― who is known for his work on “Notorious,” “Ray Donovan,” and “Southland”― said it was imperative for him to take a modern-day approach to the story by incorporating current social themes, while maintaining entertaining elements from the original comic. ”We were able to do a hip-hop, Blaxploitation lesson in ‘Luke Cage’ that has social themes, but never stops being fun,” Coker said during an interview with

Marvel’s “Luke Cage” showrunner, Cheo Hodari Coker and star Mike Colter discuss their decision to incorporate modern social themes into the show.

The Huffington Post. “I think what’s gonna surprise people is the levity. Because of what’s happening and the bullet-proof blackness of it all, they’re gonna expect the politics… but at the same time it’s as much of a celebration as it is polemic.”

Perhaps one of the most noticeable social references in the show is Cage’s bullet-proof black hoodie, a nod to the fatal 2012 shooting of Trayvon Martin.

The frustrations felt by many Americans dealing with racial oppression and police brutality was one of many

sources of inspiration for Colter in developing the character.

“That stuff inspires me and it gets a fire burning in me. So I hold on [to the feeling]. There’s no accident that I’m wearing a hoody because of Trayvon Martin,” he told HuffPost.

“I hold on to certain things that I know are injustices and people can’t actually do anything about it, and so I put myself in their shoes and try to reimagine the feeling that they would have.”

Season one of Marvel’s “Luke Cage” is currently streaming on Netflix.

Top Ten Most Awesome Amusement Parks

Whether it’s the Disney-themed amusement parks which take you back to the timeless fairytale characters and stories we all loved as children, or the less fanciful resorts, focusing more on adrenaline-inducing rides, theme parks are all awesome. Whether it’s in scale or design (probably in both), some places stand out more than others, so we’ve put together a list of the most amazing theme parks in the world, starting with:

7. Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Orlando, Florida 3. Magic Kingdom Park, Bay Lake, Florida The second largest theme park in the world (after Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, New Jersey) Disney’s Animal Kingdom stretches over 500 acres and is the first Disney park centered around animal conservation.

Consequently, its symbol is not something inspired from a fairytale, but actually a 145-foot-tall Tree of Life.

10. Tokyo Disneyland

Opened in April 1983, Tokyo Disneyland was the first Disney park to be built outside of the Unites States. Designed in the same style as Disneyland (California) and Magic Kingdom (Florida), the amusement park extensively featured Disney themes and characters.

Tokyo Disneyland is divided into seven areas, each with its own theme, many of which are reminiscent of those in the original park.

9. Islands of Adventure, Orlando, Florida

6. Europa-Park, Rust, Germany Europa-Park, opened in 1975, is located in southwestern Germany, and is one of the most popular amusement parks in Europe.

Mack Rides is the company responsible for most of the park’s machinery, many of which, like the Matterhorn Blitz (which has the largest drop of any Wild Mouse roller coaster in the world), are very impressive pieces of engineering.

One of the four theme parks which comprise the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida (which also includes Islands of Adventure), Magic Kingdom Park has the distinction of being the most visited theme park in the world. The amusement park was opened in 1971 and is divided into six themed “lands”. At its center lies the iconic Cinderella Castle, one of the Disney universe’s most recognizable symbols.

2. Discovery Cove, Orlando, Florida

5. PortAventura, Barcelona, Spain Opened at the end of May 1999, Islands of Adventure is a very popular theme park, part of the Universal Orlando resort (alongside a few other theme parks and hotels). The resort comprises seven themed “islands”, all designed around the idea of adventure.

8. Beto Carrero World, Penha, Brazil

Located in the south of Barcelona, PortAventura is Spain’s most popular theme park and one of the most visited theme parks in Europe. PortAventura includes five areas based on historic civilizations: Mediterrània, Far West, México, China and Polynesia, in addition to the Caribbean-themed Costa Caribe Aquatic Park.

4. Six Flags Magic Mountain, Valencia, CA

Built by Brazilian entertainer Beto Carrero in 1991 in the small town of Penha, in southern Brazil, Beto Carrero World is the largest, most impressive theme park in Latin America. The resort boasts over 100 rides, including 7 roller coasters and 3 water rides, and is divided into seven areas.

Among these are Old West, Pirate’s Island, German Village, and even Animal World, which functions as sort of a zoo.

The park is divided into nine districts, each with its own rides, attractions, and food service venues. It currently holds the record for most roller coasters in an amusement park, with no fewer than 19 rides!

It’s also relatively close to downtown Los Angeles and has thus appeared in quite a few productions.

Discovery Cove is a place for those who love nature – and especially the oceans. Most notably, guests can swim and play (under professional guidance, of course) with the dolphins who call the place home. There park also has a myriad of tropical fish and birds, including sharks, stingrays, and moray eels. One of its newest attractions is the Grand Reef, a lush tropical environment featuring a white sandy beach, palm tree-lined island, and underwater grottoes.

1. Disneyland Park, Anaheim, California

Opened all the way back in 1955, this iconic theme park is the only such venue designed and built under direct supervision from Walt Disney himself. In its relatively long lifetime, the park has undergone quite a few expansions and renovations, but it has always maintained its fairy tale atmosphere and, of course, a heavy emphasis on Disney characters. The Disneyland experience includes not only the rides, but also a number of live performances features the beloved Disney characters, and spectacular fireworks shows.

Commentary A Trump Win in November Could Tear this Nation Apart

The NAACP’s Proposed Moratorium on Charter Schools Doesn’t Make Sense Larry Lee

Bill Fletcher, Jr.

Alright, team, we are getting close to the finish line: Election Day November 8.

We have witnessed the first debate, between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, and while I would argue that Clinton won, Trump made enough arguments to reinforce some level of confidence among his supporters.

After having a comfortable lead over her Republican opponent, current poll numbers suggest that Clinton’s lead has almost vanished in key states; reasons why the race has tightened are still up for debate.

There are four presidential candidates on the ballot: Hillary Clinton (Democrat), Donald Trump (Republican), Gary Johnson (Libertarian Party) and Dr. Jill Stein (Green Party). The reality is that the presidential choice comes down to either Clinton or Trump. Johnson has about an 8 percent showing in the polls and Stein about 3 percent.

What voters have to decide is not only where will they come down, but also the importance of other races that will be decided November 8. Thus, my first plea is that everyone votes. Each vote, as we saw in Florida in 2000 and Ohio in 2004, can be potentially critical.

A second issue is that races, in addition to the presidential race, are criti-

cal. The United States Senate, as of this moment, is a toss-up between the Republicans and Democrats. We could find ourselves with a small Republican majority, a small Democratic majority, or a literal tie. So, even if you find yourself dissatisfied with the Presidential choices, there are other races that will make a realworld difference.

The third issue, however, is one that hit me, yet again, in watching the debate.

Trump and his supporters are dangerous. It is frightening that a presidential candidate can continue to deliver outright lies and has not been run out of town on a rail. But it is actually more than that.

Leading the birther movement against Obama, threatening to put Muslims under surveillance, proposing a wall along the border with Mexico and an escalation of deportations, allegedly, as a means of cutting crime, tells us that Trump understands nothing about the experiences of those of us of color.

Worse, he is quite prepared, in the face of the history of the U.S., to play with matches in a field of unstable dynamite. Trump isn’t stupid; he knows precisely what he is doing and he knows how he is motivating racists and xenophobes to come out of the closet. Yet, he keeps doing it.

So, it really comes down

to this: No matter who is elected, people of conscience will need to put and keep pressure on the next administration. At the same time, don’t deceive yourself. Ultraright-wing forces will play on Trump’s victory in order to push us further over the edge into a racial dystopia.

Black America went through a racial dystopia after the defeat of Reconstruction and found itself in the hell of Jim Crow. Asian America went through the persecution of the Chinese and Japanese, the annexation of Hawaii, and a genocidal war against the Filipinos. Latino America went through the seizure of the northern third of Mexico and the later seizure of Puerto Rico, along with the constant demonization of their people and their heritage. Native Americans have faced constant efforts aimed at the violation of their sovereignty, and, indeed, their extermination. We do not need a President who takes us anywhere close to that world again.

When It Comes to Black Republicans, There is not Surrogate for Experience Black “so-called” Republican operatives who have proven to be unmitigated disasters in their feeble attempts to become political analysts on TV, radio, and newspapers. I discussed this issue two weeks ago in my column.

Blacks will listen to Black Republicans who have credibility and who are not afraid to embrace their Blackness.

The Black Republicans you are seeing in the media this cycle have absolutely no credibility within the Black community nor any power within the party to make anything happen.

They typically are trotted out to the media and asked to justify Trump and his stance on Obama’s birth certificate; or to denounce Black Lives Matters; or to side with the police when a Black is murdered. Like sheep being led to the slaughter, they are stupid enough to do it, because they live for that proverbial pat on the head from massa and long to hear him say “atta boy.”

I get calls from the media everyday to discuss relevant issues of the day. If they want me to discuss an issue that I have no strong position about, I decline the media request; or if it’s an issue that I just don’t want to deal with, like Trump and the birther movement, then I also decline.

Access to a good education can reap tremendous benefits in the lives of individuals and in society. That’s why the NAACP should recognize and support all successful educational models, including charter schools.

Even though non-profit charter schools that focus on Black student achievement have shown great success across the country, on October 15 in Cincinnati, the National Board of the NAACP is considering a resolution calling for a moratorium on the expansion of charter schools.

The rationale for the resolution does not accurately reflect the realities in many charter schools that successfully serve African American students and other students of color in California, where the measure originated.

The state of California has the most public charter schools and public charter school students in the United States. In 2015-16, more than 1,200 charter schools served 572,752 students throughout the state.

A majority of those students would be students stuck in some of the state’s low-performing schools.

There has been tremendous evidence that shows that charter schools are serving minority and poor families well.

A study entitled “A Step

Up: How Charter Schools Provide Higher Levels of California Public University Access” found that charter schools are closing the University of California (UC) acceptance rate gap for under-represented student with African American and Latino charter school students almost twice as likely (19 percent) to apply to the UC as their traditional public school peers (11 percent).

Additionally, charter schools serving majorities of low-income students have the highest acceptance rates of all — 21 percent.

The acceptance rate at similar traditional public schools is only 11 percent.

One study by the Center for Research on Education Outcomes at Stanford University found that charter schools do a better job teaching low-income students, minority students and students who are still learning English, than traditional public schools.

Separate studies by the Center on Reinvention Public Education and Mathematica Policy Research have found that charter school students are more likely to graduate from high school, go on to college, stay in college, and have higher earnings in early adulthood.

The NAACP should understand that as public

schools in California, charter schools can only exist if they are authorized by a publicly elected school district board of education or county board of education.

A few charter schools may also appeal to an appointed state board of education, but that is the same body that adopts regulations for all public schools in California.

In addition to being authorized by a publicly elected board, many charter schools also have an appointed board which conducts its business in accordance with the same state laws — the Brown Act, as publicly elected boards.

As California charter schools are public schools, they are publicly funded and must adhere to the state regulatory laws, oversight, audit requirements and dissemination of information about their operations.

Nearly all charter schools in California are operated by non-profits or school districts, except about 1 percent that are operated by for-profit organizations — a practice the California Charter Schools Association opposes.

Recent Police Shootings Driven by Terrorism, Not Racism Armstong Williams

Raynard Jackson

“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us…” — “A Tale of Two Cities” by Charles Dickens.

Allow me to paraphrase Dickens.

It was the best of times post-Romney defeat in 2012 when the Republican Party claimed they understood the need for diversity, it was the worst of times when they screwed up their approach to make this happen. It was the age of wisdom when the Republican National Committee (RNC) finally decided to hire some Black staffers, it was the age of foolishness to actually think these Black staffers would listen to those who wanted to help them succeed. It was the epoch of belief that these staffers understood that Blacks before them opened doors for them; it was the epoch of incredulity that these millennials actually thought that history began with them. I think you get my point.

I thought of “A Tale of Two Cities” after watching last week’s presidential debate. I saw a plethora of

Page 11A

Many of these Black Republicans are just simply media whores and they say, “yes” to every opportunity to appear in the media. This is a sure sign of immaturity and a total lack of wisdom.

Exhibit “A” in this regards is the RNC’s national director of AfricaAmerican Initiatives and Media, Telly Lovelace. He was doing a local radio station hit prior to last week’s debate, before I was to do their national feed.

He was debating a liberal Black Democrat. She thoroughly embarrassed the hell out of him. Not only was he weak on the basic mechanics of doing a radio interview, like projecting his voice, he was also ineffective in his responses to the Black liberal’s condescending attacks on him. It was difficult to listen to this beatdown take place.

Black Republicans MUST stop allowing the party to force them to choose between their Blackness and their party. You can be both a Black with credibility within our community and also be respected within the party; it’s not an “either or,” but a “both and” proposition.

REPUBLICANS, See page 12A

It seems as though the nation’s cities and major metropolitan areas are sitting in anxious anticipation for the next police shooting; the next “senseless” loss of someone who didn’t have to die.

That’s unfortunate. There are too many questions surrounding these shootings, and while the answers do eventually come, rarely are they complete, and certainly the pain does not subside, because some plausible explanation is given.

I predict these shootings will continue. I hope I’m wrong.

They won’t be regular, and each one needs to be examined in the eyes of the public, the communities, the courts and all institutions of government for their individual merits of what went wrong and who’s to blame.

It’s a fool’s errand to assume that each one of these shootings is the result of naked, blind racism.

Black cops shooting black suspects; White cops shooting Black males; Black murderers killing Black, White and Hispanic cops…the permutations are numerous. Many of these instances — as in the case of the shooting recently in El Cajon, California — involve veteran officers with decades on the force.

So, how about examining

these instances through another lens. Sure, let race play a role. The Black Lives Matter groups, church leaders and others concerned about violence and police brutality in the Black community, ask important questions. It’s their right as citizens.

But what else, beyond racial hatred, drives behavior? What if there’s something deeper here? Something that would instill a fear in these officers and cause them to be anxious, alert, poised for action?

See, I think fear is what drives these shootings. Not all of them, but certainly the ones that can’t be easily explained. Fear of what, you may ask? Terrorism. I believe in the wake of 9/11, when terrorism in its most raw, demonic form arrived on our shores, it spurred a new kind of fear among the people. Sure, we were told that if we walked around in fear, the terrorists would win. We couldn’t allow that.

It would be…un-American.

But as each week that passes, and senseless stabbings, shootings in malls, exploding bombs on city streets become more prevalent in a 24-hour news cycle, we will see more shootings by law enforcement.

If you are a police officer, and you read of the same violence that others do, and one day you encoun-

ter a person – White, Black, Hispanic, it doesn’t matter – pointing a round cylindrical device toward you, legs spread as though he’s ready to fire said device, your first thought isn’t, “I bet that’s an electronic cigarette he’s holding.”

Fractions of a second stand between life and death in those interactions. And as much as we would like to believe cops get it right all the time, sometimes they don’t. But are we expecting a behavioral dynamic from the police that we ourselves would NEVER get right 100 percent of the time if we found ourselves in the same situation?

If a police veteran stumbles upon a terrorist act about to be committed, and risks his/her life to stop the terrorist, they are heroes. But if that suspect was strung out on PCP, the same police veteran is now a racist murderer.

Look, as a Black man, I’m not here to excuse or assign blame. What I am doing is raising another, larger question – just how much does the scourge of terrorism haunt our society? How big is that shadow SHOOTINGS, See page 12A

BACKPAGE.COM From page 1A Times, The Associated Press reports.

Backpage was started by Village Voice Media and is now owned by a Dutch company. The site allows users to post a variety of classified ads, but has come under scrutiny for its “adult entertainment” section, which includes escort ads. Backpage has continued to host those ads after other sites — including, most notably, Craigslist — shut down their adult sections.

The California Department of Justice spent three years investigating Backpage, including with undercover agents posting ads, to confirm that the escorts ads were for the sole purpose of buying and selling sex.

California Attorney General Kamala Harris says that Backpage was “purposefully and unlawfully designed” as an online brothel. Her office alleges that the “vast majority” of Backpage’s profits come from fees paid by users posting ads in the “adult” section.

The investigation was prompted, in part, by reports from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children of thousands of instances of child sex trafficking through Backpage.

No trafficking charges were announced against Ferrer, Lacey or Larkin on Thursday, but the attorney general’s office says the investigation “found that many of the ads for prostitution services involved victims of sex trafficking, including children under the age of 18.”

Harris, who is currently running for U.S. Senate, called profiting off trafficking and exploitation “outrageous, despicable and illegal.”

The AP has more on the charges: “One of the advertisers, identified only as 15-year-old ‘E.S.,’ ‘was forced into prostitution at the age of 13 by her pimp,’ according to an affidavit filed with the complaint. She used other online advertising services until they were shut down, the court filing says, when she turned to Backpage.com. “’I mean really, coming from someone my age, there is too much access, like it’s too easy for people to get on it and post an ad,’ she told California Special Agent Brian Fichtner, according to his affidavit.

“The criminal complaint includes allegations that five minors, three of them including “E.S.” under age 16, paid to post advertisements on Backpage.com.

“The charges against Ferrer could bring him nearly 22 years in prison, while Larkin and Lacey face a maximum six years.”

Separately, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement announced this week that 17 people have been charged with running an international sex-trafficking ring that imported women from Thailand and forced them into the sex trade. The indictment alleges that the traffickers advertised the women on websites including Backpage.

MOVIEGOERS From page 1A they go head to head on the big screen,” said Bunnell in a press release.

Sunday’s debate began with Trump and Clinton issuing attacks and ended with them saying something nice about each other. They kept the theater audience laughing throughout the contest.

Ama Ole, 24, a nurse now from California now living in Maryland, said she thought she was watching a comedic film.

“The fact that they are showing the debate in such a theatrical atmosphere shows how much of a comedy this election has been and how it will end up,” Ole said. “This is pure comedy, but it’s scary because it’s not a movie. This is our reality.”

During the debate, viewers cheered when Clinton called Trump out on his tax problems and said “he lives in a false reality in his head.”

Clinton told the audience she is an experienced public servant and Trump is dishonest and doesn’t respect women, Muslims and AfricanAmericans. Trump, she said, “owes our country an apology.”

Eric Hall, 27, a medical student at Howard University, said he supports Clinton. His favorite part of the debate was watching Clinton laugh at Trump, Hall said.

“If she couldn’t keep it together, how can we,” he said. “Trump is hilarious, even when he is being extremely serious.”

Trump promised that as president he would appoint a special prosecutor to investigate Clinton’s use of a private email server as secretary of state and accused former President Bill Clinton of physically assaulting three women, which he mentioned were in the audience at the debate.

Trump also acknowledged that he had avoided paying federal income taxes for years, called his taped description of sexual assault “locker room talk” and accused Clinton of victimizing women and carrying “hate in her heart.”

Ashley Dowson, 32, of Alexandria, Va., said she found out about the event through a friend.

“It’s pretty obvious who should win,” Dowson said. “Watching the two candidates go at it was pretty entertaining. Trump is really good with throwing shots, but I don’t think he will be a good president. Good TV, bad political leader.”

The tone of the debate changed when one audience member asked the candidates to cite something positive about each other. Clinton said she appreciated the way Trump had raised his children.

“Look, I respect his children,” she said. “His children are incredibly able and devoted, and I think that says a lot about Donald.”

Friday

Trump looked confused about Clintons compliment.

“I’m not sure if that was a compliment or not, but I’ll take it as one,” he said.

In return, Trump called Clinton “a fighter.”

“I will say this about Hillary,” he said. “She doesn’t quit; she doesn’t give up.”

Kenny Harris, 40, a Washington school teacher said he appreciated the final comments.

“That was a nice touch,” Harris said. “Trump is usually the one throwing jabs. That was mature of him.”

VIRUS From page 1A On October 7, 2016, the Division received confirmation from the California Department of Public Health that one wild bird collected at the end of September tested positive for West Nile Virus (WNV). This bird was found in Simi Valley. A total of 33 birds collected from Ventura County in 2016 have tested positive for WNV. WNV is established in Ventura County and additional WNV positive birds are expected.

The Division monitors and controls mosquito breeding sources throughout Ventura County. All mosquito breeding sources in the areas where these birds were collected will be inspected and will be treated if evidence of mosquito breeding is observed.

To report any potential mosquito breeding sources in Ventura County, the public can call the mosquito complaint HOTLINE at 805/6584310. The Division also provides mosquito-eating fish to the public to use in non-maintained swimming pools, ornamental ponds and similar water features. To request mosquitoeating fish call 805/662-6582. To report wild birds that have died recently call the California Department of Public Health at 877/WNV-Bird (877/968-2473).

I look forward to continue working with our partners to bring this project to completion,” said Congresswoman Julia Brownley.

“The California Natural Resources Agency fully supports the efforts to responsibly remove Matilija Dam, which will restore the transport of sand and sediment to downstream beaches, and allow passage for endangered steelhead trout to ancestral spawning habitat in the upper reaches of the Ventura River watershed. We are committed to working with all of our partners, including the Federal government, to make this project a reality,” said Secretary of the California Natural Resources Agency John Laird.

“The District has been actively involved in the removal of Matilija Dam since 1999,” said Peter Sheydayi, Ventura County Watershed Protection District Interim Director.

“Today, 27 percent of the original steelhead spawning habitat in the Ventura River watershed lies locked behind the dam. A successfully completed project would remove the Matilija Dam and facilitate the natural flow of sand and sediment from the mountains to the beaches, also allowing the endangered steelhead trout to reach habitat upstream of the existing dam to the place of their ancestral spawning and rearing.”

Matilija Dam was built in 1947 on the Ventura River to provide a local water supply and flood protection for surrounding communities.

However, over the past 70 years, sediment build-up behind the dam has significantly undermined the structure’s intended functions. It also has impacted the ecosystems of Matilija Creek and the Ventura River, preventing natural sand and sediment flow to the beach, and preventing the endangered steelhead trout from reaching their ancestral spawning grounds.

MARIJUANA From page 1A from cultivation taxes when grown by a qualified patient or primary caregiver. Under the new law, local governments could add even more taxes to marijuana purchases. Some local governments are already contemplating additional taxes to fund youth programs or fight homelessness.

Marijuana users who are desperate to save money could return to the black market or pick up a “Prop. 215 card,” skipping the state sales tax on marijuana – and likely other taxes as well.

Thanks to the Compassionate Use Act of 1996, anyone with a spare hour to visit a “doctor” can claim they have back pain and immediately begin cultivating up to 100 square feet of pot plants, taxfree.

Under Prop. 64, primary caregivers would also be exempt from cultivation taxes, taking much-needed revenue from local law enforcement agencies that use the funds to respond to complaints relating to cannabis grown and sold in their communities.

As an elected member of the State Board of Equalization, it’s my job to ensure the accurate collection of taxes owed to the state. Under current federal law, it’s nearly impossible for medical marijuana growers, distributors, co-ops and dispensaries to have bank accounts. Cash-based transactions are hard for the BOE

OCTOBER 14, 2016

to track. Not having access to bank records makes it nearly impossible for BOE to audit cannabis-related businesses.

The experience of other states like Colorado and Washington suggests that when medical sales are tax-free, nearly every marijuana user suddenly becomes a patient, even if they are not. The significant loopholes in Prop. 64 means revenue projections could fall far short of expectations.

Just last year the Legislature, with my strong support, enacted a robust regulatory scheme for medical marijuana. But the new rules won’t be fully operational until 2018, and Prop. 64 would relax some of them before they even take effect.

Some Californians won’t care about higher taxes on weed. That may be true of well-to-do hipsters, but I suspect that isn’t the case for many Californians, who will become permanent “patients” just to save money.

These questions need to be carefully considered as Californians head to the ballot box on Nov. 8. Voters deserve the facts, and our democracy works better when they have them.

BLESSINGS From page 2A CLOSE TO GETTING IN but this time your attitude needs to be: I’m going to get in; this time nobody is going to talk me out of my victory, no obstacle is going to defeat me, no sickness is going to hold me back, no disappointment is going to discourage me. What I lost in the past God can make up for in my future so I’m going into that reclaiming mode.

I am going to reclaim every lost opportunity. I am going to reclaim every blessing that I passed up. I am reclaiming every promotion that should’ve been mine. I am reclaiming the victory that people tried to talk me out of.

This is your New Day you can still live a life of victory. You can still accomplish every dream. You can still overcome that addiction. You can still be happy in that marriage.

You can still be a successful satisfied single. You can still live a blessed prosperous life. It is never too late to become all that God has created you to be.

SPORTS From page 2A the New England Patriots. His little brother, Randall, would do equally well in the pros.

It caught on in Basketball as John Wooden of UCLA and Dean Smith of legendary North Carolina broke the ice in that sport. It only took a few years for the National Football League and the National Basketball Association to follow identical paths.

All of these scholarships started arriving in Black neighborhoods.

Black females would soon profit from this movement. In my junior year at the University of Wisconsin, the Chancellor frankly asked the Black football players, “What is it about dating white girls?” I frankly responded, “Bring in some cute Black girls and maybe your concerns would fade away.” The next semester UW Badgers awarded over 800 Black females scholarships. I would joke around and declare the change in population should be accredited to me.

When money and sports combine together for a worthy cause, diversity, it becomes a powerful social and financial tool. Black education increases and these college graduates flock to upper middle class professions and raise successful children. Professional sports has guided this nation to a better America for the most part. Broadcasters, paid at the 7 figure level, and management team positions are all going for a million dollars plus financial based benefits.

It is so great!

However, there is one flaw (a massive flaw). Who designs and builds our stadiums and arenas these billion dollar structures? Check into it and you will find things here have not changed much. Part II is going to deal with that.

AGENDA From page 2A And she offers real plans. She would raise the minimum wage and make college tuition free for all but the rich. She calls for a major plan to rebuild America, investing in infrastructure and schools and water systems. That will put people to work in good jobs and make our cities better.

She’s also embraced Rep. James Clyburn’s 10-20-30 pledge to invest 10 percent of federal contracting in communities comprising 20 percent of the nation’s population that have been below the poverty line for 30 years. That would help both white, rural communities and urban ghettos and barrios. Clinton isn’t just saying trust me; she’s laying out plans that could make a difference.

But what the debate made clear is how important it is for the people to set the agenda after the election.

Voting is vital but not sufficient.

What we do can change the national agenda and force action.

When Dwight D. Eisenhower was elected president, he did not have any thought about using federal troops to desegregate schools in Little Rock. The movement forced that on his agenda. John F. Kennedy had no commitment to ending segregation of public accommodations; the civil rights movement forced that onto his agenda. Lyndon Johnson thought continuing the war in Vietnam would protect him politically.

The antiwar movement changed that calculation.

Today, Black Lives Matter has forced criminal justice reform onto the agenda of both parties. The Fight for $15 has pushed that minimum wage hikes in cities across the country. Immigration reform is part of Clinton’s first 100-day plan because citizen movements have forced it there.

The next president will make fateful decisions about war in the Middle East, how to get the economy moving, Supreme Court nominees, getting health care costs under control, climate change, unsustainable and extreme inequality and reviving the Voting Rights Act. We can’t afford to leave these choices to the next president, no matter who is elected. We can’t let a Congress corrupted by big money and entrenched lobbies set the agenda. Citizens in motion must force the vital and the just onto the next president’s and the next Congress’ agenda. We will decide by what we do, or by what we decide not to do.

One thing is clear from the debate Sunday night: It is time to organize.

“Kimberly is a servant leader with an unwavering commitment for the communities we serve,” said Regional Red Cross CEO, Jim McGee. “As Executive Director, she is able to build upon her past successes in strengthening community partnerships, leading volunteers, and increasing the overall impact of the

Red Cross locally. We are thrilled to welcome Kimberly into this new role!”

2017 will be an exciting year for the local Red Cross as it celebrates 100 years of service with a new leader at the helm. Coley says the work of the organization is just as important today as it was in 1917.

“Our presence in communities both near and far is a testament to the relevance of our mission and our ability to endure through decades,” said Coley. “Whether it is a house fire or a wildfire; a call for blood or a call for help, the American Red Cross is playing a critical role in Ventura County each and every day. But we can’t do it alone! We are better together and I’m excited to collaborate on the important work ahead.”

Coley will serve all three counties of the two local chapters: San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, and Ventura.

I will continue to work to advance this important issue in the future. “ Paid Family Leave is entirely paid for through employee payroll deductions.

GROCERY From page 8A The store you choose can also significantly impact how much you’ll spend.

Strategically plan your shopping route. Planning your grocery shopping after reviewing your local stores’ weekly sales and coupons can help you determine what to buy where. Also take the time to explore your neighborhood stores, as one grocer may frequently have highquality yet inexpensive produce while another might have a great butcher.

No matter where you shop, be mindful of how the store’s design can entice you to make purchases.

The outside ring is often where you’ll find the fewest processed foods, however you might notice that you need to walk to the back of the store to grab milk or eggs. The store hopes you’ll be tempted by something you see along the way.

Sticking to your list, refraining from walking through an aisle unless you need to and remembering that the eye-level products aren’t necessarily the best bang for your buck can help you avoid these traps.

Stick to inexpensive foods.

Consider choosing store-brand rather than name-brand products as they’re often cheaper, but not necessarily lower quality. You may also want to consider changing what you buy. Filet mignon can be delicious, but so can cheaper cuts of meat and there’s a lot of advice online for how to best prepare them. Staples, such as rice, beans and canned or frozen goods are also a low-cost way to supplement meals.

Bottom line. Buying food is a necessity, but you don’t have to overspend to keep a well-stocked fridge and pantry. By planning your meals and grocery trips, using the money-saving tactics above and carefully choosing where you shop, you can save time and money – and cook up something delicious.

STORE From page 8A bottom of the fuel tank, leading to corrosion, stalling and engine damage. To make sure your engines start up come spring, fill your tank with fresh fuel and add a stabilizer to the tank. It’s also a good idea to store your small engine equipment indoors to protect it from the elements.

• Storing your patio furniture. Before putting your outdoor oasis away, make sure to wash or brush off any loose debris. Remove surface stains with a cleaner such as 303 Multi-Surface Cleaner and make sure to protect your cushions from future spills and spots with a product such as 303 Fabric Guard.

Make sure to apply it in a well ventilated area and let it dry before storage. Finally, protect the hard surfaces of your furniture with 303 Protectant to repel dust and prevent fading and cracking.

NAACP From page 11A Calling for a moratorium on privately managed charter schools, as the NAACP resolution does, paints charter schools led by non-profit organizations with the same brush as for-profit operators. That’s wrong.

Few would argue that all charter schools are perfect. But, the same

can be said of traditional public schools where there have been state takeovers or schools placed on federal “program improvement” for years.

Charter schools do not have so many years to reach their goals.

They face re-authorization determinations every three to five years.

By almost any measure — the National Assessment of Education Progress Scholastic Aptitude Test, college admissions rates, college graduation rates — African Americans still fare worse than any other ethnic group in most traditional public schools. And yet, there are effective public schools serving African American students in the United States, including charter schools.

California and the nation need to accelerate the replication of such schools, not curtail their growth.

The venerable organization should focus on the results of effective schooling for students rather than defending policy positions that have more to do with adult issues and less to do with proven, effective student performance.

No policy should be established to retard the growth and replication of successful schools.

Larry Lee is the publisher of The Sacramento Observer.

REPUBLICANS From page 11A I have been teasing Roland Martin, the host of TV One’s “News One Now,” about this. He purposely has Black Republicans on both his TV and radio show who have absolutely no intellectual firepower to go up against him or the institutional memory to contextualize issues like civil rights, voting rights, or HBCUs. Martin obviously gets off on slapping these Republicans around and relishes every opportunity to neuter them in front of a national Black audience. Do these Blacks really wonder why no one takes them seriously? These Blacks are not knowledgeable about the issues, don’t understand the art of debating and tragically, have no intellectual curiosity about the history of Blacks in the Republican Party.

Last week, I was in a soul food restaurant in Chicago and several tables overheard my conversation about the presidential campaign. The whole restaurant began to spontaneously engage me in a conversation about Trump and Clinton. They began by expressing their total dissatisfaction with President Obama for his lack of meaningful engagement with the Black community; then they vociferously criticized Hillary Clinton for the lack of any substantive acts within the Black community; finally, they criticized Trump on his demeanor and hyperbolic language, then concluded by saying they were voting for Trump.

I hear this all across the country.

This simply validates what I have been saying for years: Black people are open to voting Republican, but the party refuses to engage with Blacks in any meaningful way.

News from the D.A. VENTURA - District Attorney Gregory D. Totten announced that Jose Eduardo Martinez Jr., formerly of Pasadena, pleaded guilty to one count of felony grand theft. The charge is the result of an investigation conducted by the Ventura County Sheriffs Office.

At the time of the offense, Martinez was an employee of RE/MAX Pacific Properties. Martinez, in his capacity as District Attorney Gregory D. Totten a transaction coordinator for RE/MAX, caused buyer escrow monies to be wired into his personal bank account rather than returned to the rightful owners. The stolen escrow monies totaled $18,000. After charges were initially filed in 2014, Martinez failed to appear in court and a warrant was issued for his arrest. Martinez was arrested on the warrant in August of this year.

Martinez will be sentenced on January 4, 2017, at 9:00 a.m. in courtroom 12. He is expected to be sentenced to 180 days in jail and ordered to pay full restitution to his victims.

The Clinton Administration’s Historic and Significant Outreach to Black Farmers

Pearlie Reid Espy and Clinton

From page 1A likely uncalled for but if it is to be done then we need to look at, among other things, the Clinton administration’s USDA and its impact on Black Farmers. Never in the history of the United States have we witnessed anything like this. In other words, some 130 years after the creation of the Department of Agriculture in 1862, finally there were significant efforts under Clinton to assist Black farmers. It was historic!

The following is a brief swath of history regarding Black

terest was not of creating an abundance of small independent and skilled white farmers, but rather the extension

ly, blacks owned 15 million acres of land of which 218,000 black farmers were full or part owners. This was a remarkable achievement by the Black community.

Fast forward again to the 1930’s and Roosevelt’s New Deal administration which gave birth to Secretary of Agriculture Henry Wallace’s “New Deal” agriculture policies. During and after the 1932 depression, farmers struggled, and the New Deal’s USDA initiatives offered them program payments to help them stay in business. But white plantation owners in the South, with representation in Congress, would not allow payments to go directly to black tenant or sharecropper farm-

farmers; their struggles; and what happened during the Clinton years.

The US Department of Agriculture was created on May 15, 1862, by Abraham Lincoln.

This was one year after 7 southern states had seceded in January 1861 to form the “Confederate States of America” and after the Civil War had officially started in April 1861. It is highly unlikely that Lincoln would have been able to create the Department of Agriculture had the Southern legislators not left due to the secession. Unlike Lincoln, the southern legislator’s in-

of slavery and plantations into the western states.

Fast forward to the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863 and the Freedman’s Bureau after the Civil War in 1865 during the “Reconstruction Era” (1865-1877) that assisted freed Blacks in acquiring land. Congress, however, did not specify that the Bureau assist freed slaves in purchasing the legendary “40 Acres and a Mule” or acquire “free” land as it had offered white farmers with the 1862 Homestead Act. Rather, the Freedman’s Bureau assisted black farmers in purchasing small acreage, as in 10 to 15 acres.

Nevertheless, by 1910 there was a peak of land ownership for blacks. Collective-

Nation’s Students Help First Lady Pick Final Harvest

On Thursday, Oct. 6, President Barack Obama made a surprise visit to the White House Kitchen Garden on the South Lawn of the White House. First Lady Michelle Obama invited school children for her final fall harvest.

By Courtney Davis Howard University News Service WASHINGTON -- First lady Michelle Obama, surrounded by 20 kids from across the nation she had invited to help her with

her final harvest, made one thing crystal clear – she wants the elaborate “Kitchen Garden” she established to promote better eating to remain long after she and President Barack Obama have left the White House.

To that end, Obama announced last week a $2.5 million donation by the Burpee Foundation to preserve and care for the garden for at least 17 more years.

The children dug and picked vegetables to help her

with her harvest and to literally enjoy the fruits of their labor as they later ate some of the food they picked.

“I take pride in knowing that this garden will serve as a reminder of what we all started, but also what we

all have left to do,” Obama said at the dedication ceremony, “and as we dedicate this garden here today, I am hopeful that the future first families will cherish the garden like we have, and that it will become one of

our enduring White House traditions.”

Updates to the garden include bluestone walkways, a wooden arbor, tables and benches and an inscribed stone that reads, “White House HARVEST, See page 13B

Ojai Pops Orchestra during their first rehearsal

OJAI -- The Ojai Pops Orchestra will hold its first concert at Ojai’s Libbey Bowl on Sunday, October 18th from 3:30 pm to 4:30 pm. The concert is free and open to the public.

The orchestra plays for “the love of the music” and the comradery. There are many old and new connections among the orchestra members. Long-time Ojai resident Lavonne Thierault, and timpani player, “completed the circle”, for conductor Scott Weiss. “Lavonne was a member of the original Ventura County Symphony in 1961 with Scott’s father, Larry Weiss. Larry was principal trumpet of the Ventura County Symphony, the music director at VHS, and con-

ductor of the Ventura County Concert Band for 37 years.”

Flute player Jane Hahn and Scott played together in the UCSB orchestra in the seventies. “We also discovered several very talented Ojai musicians who are driving to play with orchestras in Santa Maria and Lompoc. They are happy to play with an orchestra in their back yard.”

The orchestra is comprised of many local musicians, and some musicians travel from as far as Los Angeles and Goleta. The concert master, Debbie Youngerman, splits her time between performing in Ventura and Colorado Springs.

There are several CalArts and UCSB musicians performing with the orchestra

including young professionals such as flautist Juan Rivera, who recently completed his Masters in Flute at CalArts. Oboe player Cheri Moraga is from a family of professional musicians in Oxnard including her husband, who is a studio musician, and her daughters who also play professionally.

The orchestra has acquired a number of movie score arrangements, which have been recorded and released by the Prague Philharmonic. The orchestra will play a wide variety of music on October 18th, including movie themes, jazz, and music of George Gershwin and Leonard Bernstein. Pieces to be played OJAI, See page 13B

The Collection at RiverPark Hosts 3rd annual Trick-or-Treat Event

In an event sponsored

by Sunny Smiles Dental for Children and Young Adults, children and their families can trick-or-treat at participating merchants listed on a passport map. Event-goers who complete their passport and visit all participating merchants will be entered for a chance to win a Spooktacular Collection Grand Prize.

"Even though a lot of kids worry about us being the Halloween dental police, we enjoy dressing up and eating candy just like everyone else!

We're joining the Halloween celebration at The Collection at RiverPark then having a subsequent candy buy-back at our office where the candy will go to support troops through a great organization called Operation Gratitude,’ said Dr. Daniel Noble. “We enjoy promoting great dental health while at the same time seeing kids having fun at this event."

“We look forward to following up last year’s wildly popular Halloween event with even more tricks and treats as Sunny Smiles Dental will join in on the fun,” said Stefanie Muegel, Marketing Manager for The Collection.

The email exchanges with Podesta had occurred months before the former NASA astronaut died in February this year, at the age of 85, at a West Palm Beach, Florida, hospice. Mitchell, the Lunar Module Pilot for the Apollo 14 mission crew, became the sixth man to walk on the Moon in February 1971.

One of the emails that Mitchell sent to Podesta also reveals that Mitchell believed the Pope and the Vatican have conclusive evidence of alien life and ETI visitations to Earth. “My Catholic colleague Terri Mansfield will bring us up to date on the Vatican’s awareness of ETI,” Mitchell wrote in the email to Podesta.

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.

MALKIEWICZ AKA MARY EILEEN MALKIEWICZ; MARY MALKIEWICZ. A Petition for Probate has been filed by ALAN M. MALKIEWICZ in the Superior Court of California, County of VENTURA. The Petition for Probate requests that ALAN M. MALKIEWICZ be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.)

The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

A hearing on the petition will be held on Date: October 26, 2016 at Time: 9:00 a.m. in Dept.: J6 located at SUPERIOR COURT OF CALIFORNIA, COUNTY OF VENTURA, 4353 E. Vineyard Avenue, Oxnard, California 93036, Juvenile Justice Center.

If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objec-

tions with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

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

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

You may examine the file kept by the court.

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

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

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.

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.

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 $1,288,543.87 (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. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call In Source Logic at 702-659-7766 for information regarding the Trustee’s Sale or visit the Internet Web site address listed below for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, CA0800039016-1.

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

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

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

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property.

You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sa le date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 888988-6736 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www. qualityloan.com , using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-16-712028BF . Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property.

You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sa le date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 888988-6736 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www. qualityloan.com , using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-14-650158RY . Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the sale is set aside for any reason, including if the Trustee is unable to convey title, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return o f the monies paid to the Trustee. This shall be the Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy. The purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Trustor, the Trustee, the Beneficiary, the Beneficiary’s Agent, or the Beneficiary’s Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holders right’s against the real property only.

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.

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.

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.

The petition requests the decedent’s will and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court.

The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.)

The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

A hearing on the petition will be held on Date: November 9, 2016 at Time: 9:00 a.m. in Dept.: J6 located at SUPERIOR COURT OF CALIFORNIA, COUNTY OF VENTURA, 4353 East Vineyard Avenue, Oxnard, CA 93036, Juvenile Courthouse.

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

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

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

You may examine the file kept by the court.

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

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

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property.

You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sa le date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 888988-6736 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www. qualityloan.com , using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the

Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the sale is set aside for any reason, including if the Trustee is unable to convey title, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return o f the monies paid to the Trustee. This shall be the Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy. The purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Trustor, the Trustee, the Beneficiary, the Beneficiary’s Agent, or the Beneficiary’s Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holders right’s against the real property only.

Friday OCTOBER 14, 2016 Page 13B

NAACP, From page 14A The invocation was given

by Rev. Dr. Clyde W. Oden, Jr. of Bethel A.M.E. Church (Oxnard), followed with a musical selection by Angela Timmons.

Jay Jackson introduced the keynote speaker, Theodore (Ted) Bagley. Mr. Bagley currently serves as vice president of Human Resources - Global Manufacturing for Amgen, Inc. He began by reading a poem he wrote titled, It’s Your Choice.

“I can’t make you vote because voting is a choice If you sit this one out, you can give up your voice There are many who say, “I won’t vote this time.”

But can I convince you to change your mind?

Just consider the shoulders on which we stand They fought and died for their fellow man Your actions are yours, and that we agree But people have died so that you can be free There are things to consider, and yes I have proof The sacrifice made by Sojourner Truth Then there was another, a bell this should ring Just calling your attention to the name Dr. King Then there’s John Hatcher who’ll fight in any way To protect the rights that we have here today Consider the cost, you must work things out There’s a lot to be lost if you sit this one out It’s about jobs and our future, there’s plenty at stake An informed decision, I’m asking you to make Please vote for the candidate who impresses you most Just understand there that it be made coast to coast Republican or Democrat, whatever your mind But understand your decision could last a lifetime This election is critical and it matters a lot Trump or Clinton will be president whether you like it or not Once the election is over and you didn’t make a choice Just shut up and know you gave up your voice.”

The keynote was followed by an awards ceremony where plaques were presented to special dignitaries. The NAACP President’s Award, given to Theodore Bagley, is selected by the president of the NAACP and is presented to an individual or group to recognize their special achievement in public service and furthering the cause of civil rights.

The NAACP Special Award, given to Crittenden K. Ward, is presented to an individual who meets the requirements of the President’s Award and continues to advocate for political, educational, social and economic equality for minorities. The NAACP Memorial Award, given to Dr. John L. Baylor and Mrs. Imogene Peggy Hughes, is presented to individuals who dedicated and committed their life to working actively in the community.

The NAACP Community Service Award, accepted by Dr. Irene Pinkard of Pinkard Youth Institute, recognizes and honors exceptional individuals who make volunteerism and community service a way of life, exemplifying the act of giving back to the community by making a difference. The NAACP Community Empowerment - Corporate Award, accepted

by Dale Villani of Gold Coast Health Plan, is presented to a small business or corporation that has worked tirelessly for the wellbeing of the community focusing on economic growth, educational equality, or political and social justice.

Lastly, Peggy Hunt, Publisher of Tri-County Sentry Newspaper, Angela Timmons and Jeri Williams were presented with the NAACP Women in the NAACP Award. This award is presented to an individual of African American decent who displays exemplifying standards in issues affecting women and children in the community. The individual works in the community to increase the understanding and awareness of racial and social issues by defending and advocating for a positive development and change in our community.

“This year with the upcoming presidential election, it is important that we all are informed and engaged voters.

The future of America and its people are too valuable to not vote. The same struggles we faced in the past and fought are the same issues we are fighting for now in our quest for equality. The results of this election will impact our lives and the future of the next generation. The right to vote is a privilege we earned; therefore I encourage you to vote this year. Our lives matter. Our votes count,” said President John R. Hatcher III, NAACP, Ventura County Chapter.

The NAACP was founded in 1909. It is the nation’s oldest and largest civil rights organization, serving the nation from the ballot box to the classroom, with thousands of dedicated workers, organizers, leaders and members who continue to fight for social justice for all Americans.

CLINTON, From page 15A the black farmers who were farming on the white-owned land. As one can imagine, fraud persisted and on the whole the black farmers were locked out of receiving benefits from the USDA. This southern white attitude referred to above is forever known as the “plantation mindset” and while there are any number of definitions of it, on the whole it is known for its “racism, egocentrism, arrogance and greed.” So, even in spite of some of the progressive New Deal policies, little changed for the advancement of black farmers.

Fast forward once again to the 1960’s civil rights movement. In the South, it was often the independent black farmers who assisted the civil rights activists with resources and a land base to launch and maintain movement activities. The USDA employees and Congressional representatives throughout the region struck back against these farmers, as did the local bankers. Blacks began to lose a significant amount of land holdings, market opportunities and income overall.

Many were forced out of the South.

However, the 1964 Civil Rights Act was significant in influencing government behavior and Black farm groups did not lose sight of this. For example, Title VI of the Civil Rights act states: “No person in the United States shall, on the ground of race, color, or national origin, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.” (Department of Labor) This, of course, applied to USDA programs.

In the 1960s, as a result and the Civil Rights legislation, coupled with black land loss, the black community in the South reacted to the hypocrisy and injustice of the USDA and southern bankers discriminatory actions. Many organizations were spawned to stop this land loss and assist farmers struggling against the USDA, the local bankers and, on a more positive proactive note, to assist these farmers with production and marketing opportunities.

For example, the Federation of Southern Cooperatives (Federation) was created in 1967 to assist Black farmers and rural communities in holding on to the land and utilizing cooperatives as a means of locally controlled sustainable economic development. The Emergency Land Fund (ELF) was created in 1972 to research the causes of black land loss and to develop and implement strategies to stem the tide. In 1985, the Federation and the ELF merged to become the Federation of Southern Cooperatives/Land Assistance Fund. Other black organizations in the south joined the struggle and eventually coalitions developed to pressure both Congress and the USDA for change and equity, however neither Congress nor the USDA were as responsive as they could have or should have been.

There was an Office of Civil Rights at USDA thanks to the civil rights legislation, but in the early 1980s Reagan abolished it and it is said that under Reagan complaints from Black farmers were thrown in the trash.

Not to be deterred, however, the Federation’s staff member Jerry Pennick wrote an article in 1988 calling for a “Minority Farmer’s Rights Act” be passed by Congress that would offer federal monies for outreach and technical assistance to Black farmers.

A coalition of organizations rallied around the call and eventually Congress agreed and the “Minority Farmers Rights Act” became Section 2501 of the 1990 Farm Bill.

Although research has proven that 2501 has been effective, it has never been adequately funded and eventually the program has strayed away from its original intent to focus on farmers of color and those institutions and organizations of color that have a proven record of working on their behalf.

HARVEST, From page 15A Kitchen Garden, established in 2009 by First Lady Michelle Obama with the hope of growing a healthier nation for our children.”

The tables, benches and arbor were designed by students at the University of Virginia’s School of Architecture with salvaged wood from

the estates of for presidents Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and James Monroe and Civil Rights leader the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Originally spanning 1,100 square feet, the garden has expanding to more than twice that size.

The changes and donation are a part of Obama’s efforts to ensure future first families get an opportunity to enjoy the garden.

The garden was the beginning of Obama’s “Let’s Move!” initiative, a campaign to get children across the nation healthier by being active and making healthier food choices.

Along with the children participating in the harvest were a few celebrities, including TODAY show Al Roker, Grammy Award-winning singer Ashanti, seven-time NBA All-Star Alonzo Mourning, astronaut Kjell Lindgren and Sesame Street’s Elmo and Rosita.

Michelle Obama said she wanted two students from Flint, Mich., to attend the final harvest to reinforce the concept that good nutrition can reduce the effects of exposure to lead contaminated water. So, fourth grader A’layia Howard and fifth grader Xavier Purches from Freeman Elementary School were among the students.

Freeman Elementary School is a part of the “Let’s Move! Salad Bars to Schools” program, an initiative that donates salad bars to schools so children across the nation have daily access to fresh fruits and vegetables.

A’layia and Xavier said they were sleepy from their 5 a.m. flight, but the kids perked up after eating pizza made with vegetables they harvested. Excited and appreciative, A’layia showed off a cartwheel and full split for the first lady.

Freeman fifth grade teacher Kathy Savoie said the countdown to the visit was exhilarating for the students.

“We would meet at lunch and we would talk about what we were going to do, what was going to happen and maybe some questions they might get asked, just to make them feel more comfortable,” Savoie said.

“And every day they would go down the hall and say, ‘Three more days, two more days.’”

The trip to the White House was the first time the students have been out of state or on an airplane she said.

Obama gave the children hugs and a motherly send off when the garden pizza was finished and the harvest finally over.

“Be good and make me proud.”
