called Holy Book, which seems to wield an unseen power and enduring fascination, even on forbidden soil, such as in Communist China, to cite only one prominent example?
A shocking fact for many observers is that, although Communist China is “officially” an atheist state, it produces the most Christian Bibles in the world today! The Chinese government is wary of religion for several reasons.
China is, officially, an atheist state,
and (members of the Communist Party) are banned from believing in and/or practising (any) religious faith, as there is a concern among political party leaders that religion can – possibly – replace or become an “alternative” to Communism, itself. Currently, within Communist China, the primary religious faiths are: Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, Islam, various Chinese folklore, and Christianity. THE MYSTERIOUS RISE OF

CHRISTIANITY IN MAINLAND CHINA. Mysteriously, and for specific reasons that remain elusive, Christianity has accelerated within recent years among the grassroots Chinese populace, and is now one of the primary faiths in this most-populated nation on Earth. The official Amity Printing Company aka APC (English translation), located in Nanjing, China, recently surpassed its printing record of well over 120-million copies of the bible, making your favourite copy of the Good Book’s origin . . . quite possibly from China! This is good news for western Christian organisations, such as the United Bible Societies, who are in joint venture with China’s APC to produce these Old and New Testament books.
According to Christianity Today International (founded by the late Reverend Billy Graham) and its flagship magazine: “Chances are good that your favorite Bible was printed in China. The overwhelming majority of Bibles sold at Christian bookstores or Barnes & Noble were printed there,” said Mark Bertrand of Bible Design Blog. A book which staunch Christians call the divine word of God, and

A duck walks into a pub and orders a pint of beer and a ham sandwich. The barman looks at him and says, "Hang on! You're a duck."
"I see your eyes are working," replies the duck. "And you can talk!" exclaims the barman. "I see your ears are working, too," says the duck.
"Now if you don't mind, can I have my beer and my sandwich please?" "Certainly, sorry about that," says the barman as he pulls the duck's pint. "It's just we don't get many ducks in this pub.. What are you doing round this way?"

which atheists and opposing faiths perceive as only a collection of faerie tales, childish notions, and wild-eyed imaginings. Whether one is Christian, atheist, agnostic, makes no difference. By all objective accounts, this mysterious book warrants academic attention. More than any other piece of literature in the entire sweep of human history, no other book has reshaped the landscape of human thinking on this third planet from the sun – than this one. DID THE HISTORICAL JESUS REALLY EXIST? The central figure in the Christian Bible is this mysterious and paradigmatic individual known as Jesus of Nazareth.
Brushing aside the Great Debate if he was truly divine, or merely a mortal human being, the (initial) line of questioning is: did he ever truly exist – as a historical figure?
IRONICALLY, HIS GREATEST ENEMIES CONFIRM HIS EXISTENCE. Outside of any Christian bias, what other secular (non-religious) sources validate and historically prove the existence of Jesus of Nazareth? Jesus’ biggest detractors who, literally, hated him, vilified him, and even wished that he never existed -- these very adversaries, ironically, are

"I'm working on the building site across the road," explains the duck. "I'm a plasterer."
The flabbergasted barman cannot believe the duck and wants to learn more, but takes the hint when the duck pulls out a newspaper from his bag and proceeds to read it.
So, the duck reads his paper, drinks his beer, eats his sandwich, bids the barman good day and leaves. The same thing happens for two weeks.
Then one day the circus comes to town. The ringmaster comes into the pub for a pint and the barman says to him
"You're with the circus, aren't you? Well, I know this duck that could be just brilliant in your circus. He talks, drinks beer, eats sandwiches, reads the newspaper and everything!" "Sounds marvelous," says the ringmaster, handing over his business card. Get him to give me a call."
So the next day when the duck comes into the pub the barman says, "Hey Mr. Duck, I reckon I can line you up with a top job, paying really good money." "I'm always looking for the next job," says the duck. "Where is it?" "At the circus," says the barman.
“”The circus?" repeats the duck.
Ben Hur and Him By Bruce Krider
Back in the mid-1990’s I was on vacation with my wife, Laura, in London. We were touring the country but were in London a day or two before going home. This particular night we went to a play, “The Death of a Salesman” with Richard Dreyfuss and Marcia Mason. I don’t remember the name of the theatre but it was a big old one. A “grande” one you might say.
Anyway, just before the play started, the emcee or whatever you call them came out with a few announcements and at the end, he announced that there was a special guest at the play. Then he introduced Charlton Heston who was seated down in front in a prime seat. Heston stood up, waved, smiled and sat back down. So, we watched the first half of the
play and enjoyed it but I decided to go to the men’s room near the tail end of intermission because I knew the men’s room would be clogged with everyone else who needed to use it.
So, I say to Laura, “I am heading up quick to the toilet. I will make it quick.”
I walk into the men’s room with a full bladder and scurried over to one of the urinals on the wall, zipped down the “trou,” got the guy out and, phew, “sweet relief.” It was more full than I thought. When I could focus on something else, out of the corner of my left eye, I noticed another gentleman standing there to my left doing much the same thing. Looked like he might be straining – but none of my affair, right?

PLINY THE YOUNGER (Gaius Plinius Caecillius Secundus), born 61/62 AD- died c. 113 AD), was a lawyer, author, and magistrate of Ancient Rome. Pliny records the Christian Jesus’ character as: “Pigheaded obstinacy,” and labeled his followers as believers in “destructive superstition.”

TACITUS (Publius Cornelius Tacitus) born 56 AD – died c. 120 AD, was a Roman historian and politician who is widely considered one of the greatest historians by modern scholars. Tacitus deeply hated and vilified the Christian Jesus and his established movement.
According to scholars, Tacitus provides information about the socalled Messianic figure, Jesus, confirming his existence, and recording that he was, indeed, crucified – thus, establishing agreement with the Christian accounts (on at least this one basic fact).
“Upon him was inflicted the most exquisite tortures on a class hated for their abominations, called Christians by the populace. ‘Christus,’ from whom the name had its origin, suffered the extreme penalty at the hands of one of our prefects (governors), Pontius Pilate.” (“Annals,” by Tacitus, fragments which survive today.)
According to general consensus from both Christian and nonChristian scholars, with Tacitus’ position as a Roman senator, he most certainly had access to official Roman documents pertaining to
that time.
Pliny the Younger referenced the historical Jesus when he sent a letter to Emperor Trajan, expressing his concern and asked counsel on how to deal with the early Christian community. (Epistulae X.96)
Pliny left a collection of private letters that illustrated the public and private life in the heyday of the Roman Empire. His letters described the crucified Jesus, and his current followers, as adherents of: “Depraved, excessive superstition,” whose ongoing practices were a “potential starting point for sedition.” (Ibid, Epistulae X.96)
SUETONIUS (Gaius Suetonius Tranquillus) born c. AD 69 – c. AD 140. Roman biographer and antiquarian, Suetonius demonizes the historical Jesus in his work, “Lives of the Twelve Caesars,” in which he refers to Jesus in context as the socalled “Chresto.”

The Talmud’s reference to Jesus of Nazareth chronicles his death (translated from the original ancient Hebrew writing) as such: “On the eve of Passover, Yeshua was hanged (on the wooden crucifix).” The ancient Jewish Talmud script further attests to his crime of: “practicing sorcery and enticing followers to apostasy (apostasy is defined as ‘The abandonment or renunciation (rejection) of an established religious or political belief’).”
Outside of any biblical bias, there was never any debate in the ancient world whether Jesus of Nazareth was a real historical figure. Today, it is universally agreed upon – by both Christian and secular scholars alike – that the man known as Jesus of Nazareth truly existed. Even non-believers, who deny any claim of Jesus being divine -- such as modern Jewish author, scholar, and professor, Rabbi Lewis D. Solomon – the Jewish scholar states: “Two thousand years ago Jesus walked the face of the earth, of that there is no doubt.” (“Jesus Through Jewish Eyes,” Beatrice Bruteau, editor.

I quickly focused back on the wall directly in front of me with that stupefied look guys get when they are letting a gusher go hanging on for dear life. But I thought, “Wait a minute”. Is that who I think it is next to me?” No shit. It was Charlton Heston. I thought to myself, OMG, I am peeing together with God.
Not wanting to sprinkle anything uncontrollably, I kept my cool and just tried to peek a tiny bit more real quickly. A real fast snap to the side and then back, I thought. That would be OK… But one thing you never want to do is be looking at another guy at the urinal when he is peeing. That’s just never a good idea. And for sure, don’t wink at him. So, I said, while making direct eye contact (so as to make sure he didn’t think I was looking at his crank), “Hello Mr. Heston. I am a great fan. I think you are the best actor in the world and….. while normally I would want to shake hands or at least get an autograph, I will cut you some slack this time and go for it next time.” He said with a quick smile, “Oh, thanks very much. I appreciate it.”

The Paper • Page 4 • June 16, 2022 Honda SUV Runs onto Oceanside Sidewalk, Strikes, Kills Woman
A woman was killed while walking a week ago Sunday when a Honda SUV drove onto the sidewalk and struck her before fleeing, the Oceanside Police Department said. According to The Times of San Diego, the collision happened at 8:19 a.m. Sunday on Benet Road near Leepish Drive, according to Sgt. Adam Morales.
Arriving officers found an unresponsive woman lying on the southern sidewalk of Benet, the sergeant said.
The black SUV was traveling eastbound, hit the woman, then made a Uturn and fled the scene westbound on Benet, police said.
Officers attempted life-saving measures, but the pedestrian was pronounced dead at the scene, Morales said. Her name was not released pending family notification.
Accident Major OPD The Investigation Team took charge of the case. Anyone with information regarding the collision was asked to call Accident Investigator Clint Bussey at 760-435-4412. Police have identified a suspect in the shooting death of a 22-year-old Oceanside pre-school teacher shot and killed over the weekend.
The Oceanside Police Department is asking the public for help locating Vicente Huerta, who they say is a 25year-old Oceanside gang member.
Huerta is accused of shooting and killing Chelsea Pacheco near Bush Street and Archer Street.
Investigators say Pacheco, 22, was riding in a car with friends at around 11:45 a.m. when they got into an altercation with Huerta. As they drove away, Huerta fired at their vehicle, OPD Lt. Taurino Valdovinos said. Pacheco's friends apparently didn't realize she had been shot, according to Lt. Valdovinos.
"The reporting party advised their friend was having a panic attack and was having difficulty breathing," Valdovinos said. "Officers arrived and located a 22-year-old female who was not breathing. Officers provided medical aid until medics arrived and transported her to Tri-City Medical Center, where she was pronounced deceased." OPD described Huerta as 6 feet 3 inches tall, 200 to 230 pounds and bald. He has several tattoos on his head, including the number 3 on top of his head and a tattoo over his right eyebrow, according to OPD. Police consider Huerta dangerous.
KinderCare in Oceanside confirmed Monday that Pacheco was a pre-school teacher there, primarily in charge of taking care of 2-year-olds. KinderCare staff described her as very attentive to her students. Pacheco's friend Justin Pulido said she was adventurous and a risk-taker.
"Too risky, at times, because she would have to push me into doing things a lot of the time," Pulido said.
Who knew that LA lifeguards— who work in the sun, ocean surf, and golden sands of California— could reap such unbelievable financial reward? It’s time we put Baywatch on pay watch. In 2019, we found top-paid lifeguards made up to $392,000. Unfortunately, today, the pay and benefits are even more lucrative.

Top-Paid LA Lifeguards Earned Up To $510,283 In 2021
Baywatch needs to go on pay watch! By Adam Andrzejewski

Daniel Douglas was the most highly paid and earned $510,283, an increase from $442,712 in 2020. As the “lifeguard captain,” he outearned 1,000 of his peers: salary ($150,054), perks ($28,661), benefits ($85,508), and a whopping $246,060 in overtime pay. The second highest paid, lifeguard chief Fernando Boiteux, pulled down $463,517 – up from $393,137 last year.
Our auditors at OpenTheBooks.com found 98 LA lifeguards earned at least $200,000 including benefits last year, and 20 made between $300,000 and $510,283. Thirty-seven lifeguards made between $50,000 and $247,000 in overtime alone. And it’s not only about the cash compensation. After 30 years of service, LA lifeguards can retire as young as 55 on 79-percent of their pay. Furthermore, we found that most of the top-paid lifeguards were men.
When he heard the news, Pulido said his first reaction was disbelief.
“At first I thought, ‘This has to be wrong.’" he said. "At first, it was denial, trying to figure out what really happened.” Loved ones gathered for a vigil Saturday night and left a small vigil outside Pacheco's home that is growing every day. Police have not arrested the shooter, but described him as a 20 to 30-yearold man, bald, between 5-feet-10 inches and 6 feet tall with a stocky build.
Pulido said Pacheco's family wants to see the shooter be brought to justice. Anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact OPD Detective Dave Estrada at 760-4354698. 1 Dead in Shooting at Oceanside's John Landes Park
One person was killed in a shooting at a park in Oceanside overnight, prompting an investigation Thursday morning, police said.
A caller told Oceanside police they heard shots were fired in John Landes Park near College Boulevard and Thunder Avenue just after midnight OPD spokesperson Jennifer Atenza said. At the north end of the park, police found a man on the ground with a gunshot wound to his chest, Atenza said. The man was pronounced dead at the scene. Circumstances surrounding the shooting were not yet known. No other information was available.
In fact, only two of the top 20 highearners were women: Virginia Rupe ($307,664; 16th highest paid), a lifeguard captain, and Lauren Dale ($303,518; 19th highest paid), an ocean lifeguard specialist. Overtime pay drove earnings into the corporate executive range.
Last year alone, 37 lifeguards made overtime in amounts between $50,000 and $247,000. For example, Daniel Douglas (overtime: $246,060); James Orr (overtime: 146,506); Patrick O’Neil (overtime: $133,235); and five others each made six-figures plus.
However, in a six-year period, between 2016 and 2021, the LA lifeguard corps made a fortune in overtime. The top three high earners made between $505,579 and $980,007 in overtime alone: Daniel Douglas ($980,007); Jaro Spopek ($513,365); and James Orr ($505,579). Some high-earning lifeguards also win awards for heroism. However, we found many lifeguards winning Valor Awards failed to crack the top of the payroll.
In 2020, the Medal of Valor winner, Edward “Nick” Macko (salary: $134,144), an ocean lifeguard, jumped into the rough waters in a remote Palos Verdes gorge and pulled a man to safety through potentially skull-crushing swells and over razor-sharp rocks.

In 2021, the Exemplary Service Award for EMS went to lifeguards Todd Ribera (comp: $184,676); Stephen Leon Jr. (comp: $36,597); Max Malamed (comp: $130,952); and Blake Hubbell (comp: $170,956).
Also winning Exemplary Service Awards were high-earners: ocean lifeguard specialist Lauren Dale ($303,518), the 19th highest paid lifeguard, and lifeguard captain Roque Roque ($319,566), the sixth highest paid in 2020.
Beach lifeguard pay dwarfs that of their colleagues at the pools. The highest paid “pool lifeguard” made $45,030, including pay and benefits.
During the pandemic, lifeguards continued to work and took additional precautions doing water rescues. Many traded their trunks and sunscreen for masks and scrubs at Covid testing sites. In some cases, lifeguards acted as police, enforcing stay-at-home orders, keeping people off the beaches and out of the water. Why beach lifeguards earn so much money is an open question the L.A. taxpayer might start asking.
A lifeguard’s job can be dangerous, but it’s unclear why they are now

His Name was Not JESUS! Continued from Page 3
Christians today to find that there were, in fact, two different Bethlehem towns during the time of Jesus.
One Bethlehem was situated in Galilee (in the region of Zebulon) bordering the valley of Jiphthah-el in the north, near Nazareth (Joshua 19:15-16). It is 40 walking miles from Nazareth. The other Bethlehem is in the hilly region to the south of Jerusalem, in the vicinity of Judah (Judea). In the Jewish Torah (aka the Christian Old Testament), it is first spoken of in Genesis 35:19. It is 90 walking miles from Nazareth.
In which one was the alleged Christian saviour truly born? The consensus among the most august of antiquity researchers (both secular and religious), all adhere to the evidence supporting the New Testament account that the historical Jesus was most likely born in Bethlehem of Judea, as recorded in Matthew 2:1 which in part states: “Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea, during the official reign of King Herod.” This narrative account would also fit within the strict Roman law of necessitating a longer journey from Nazareth to Bethlehem of Judea in order to be counted in a Roman census, viably enforced during that historical timeline.
HIS NAME WAS NEVER ‘JESUS’ His name was never ‘Jesus.’ Nor was he ever called ‘Jesus’ during his entire lifetime. Of that, both secular and Christian authorities, unanimously, agree. At birth, he was named Yeshua, a shortened form of Yahoshua or Yahshua. We sometimes forget that Jesus was a Jew of antiquity. In the Hebrew language, there does not exist any letter with an equivalency to our Anglo-American “J.”
The English name “Jesus” is the outcome of the Greek word “Iesous” and the Latin version, “Iesus.” This Greek and Latin spelling of Jesus – along with the Hebrew spelling – was placed (according to Christian Scripture) on the head of Jesus’ cross, by order of Pontius Pilate, along with the inscription: “This is the King of the Jews.” (Luke 23:3839, KJV). It is one message, in three distinct languages of the day. But all without the letter “J” in the original Greek, Latin, and Hebrew spelling. To this very day, many crucifixes (most notably, Roman Catholic) still retain the original Latin version of Jesus’ name, along with the original inscription, all without the letter “J”: “Iesus Nazarenus, Rex, Indaeorum” (translation: “Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews.”) This is also revealed in just the initials, which are often inscribed on crucifixes: INRI. Historical records reveal that there was not even a letter “J” in the English alphabet until it was first introduced by medieval scribes, cen-

turies later.
The propensity to supplant the letter “I” in Iesus with the letter “J” completed the word-transformation into its present Christian usage: “Jesus,” in the English language. It is noteworthy to point out that Jesus’ actual birth name, Yeshua (which means “The Lord is salvation” or “The Lord will/has saved”), was a common name two thousand years ago in that region of the world. Modern archaeologists have unearthed 71 ‘Yeshua’ names in burial caves dating from the time that the historical Jesus was alive.
So common was the name that it may come as a startling revelation that the notorious Barabbas, who was released by Pontius Pilate in place of the religious Jesus, was named Jesus (Yeshua) Barabbas (var. Bar-Abbas).
The infamous criminal, Jesus Barabbas, is named in his entirety in some of the early Christian manuscripts but, interestingly, his first name was deleted by various Christian scribes, to the extent that his full name remains relatively scarce among today’s various Christian Bibles. “Jesus Barabbas” still appears in the Armenian and Syrian versions of Matthew 17:16-17. Also, in other such works as The Harper Collins Study Bible, New Revised Standard Version, 1989 (Ibid, Matt.)
The deletion of “Jesus” as Barabbas’ first name is viewed as no accident in transcription but, rather, is seen as a deliberate act of omission. Modern bible scholars, such as William Barclay, D. A. Carson, Robert Gundry, and Klaas Schilder, believe – as do many others – that Barabbas’ first name (Jesus) was expunged because it was offensive and irreverent to associate him with Jesus, who is called the Christ. If any hidden reason is to be found, perhaps this one has credence.
If Barabbas’ first name was, indeed, erased by early Christian scribes by design, and such omission remains prevalent today (not found in most bibles), it attests to the prevailing power of influence that continues today within Christianity. Devout Christian followers are (understandably) quick to defend and keep holy his name, however, deletion of fact is, nonetheless, a touchy matter, in spite of any worthy or noble motive, no matter how well intended.
That “Barabbas” translates to the "Son of the Father," may have added further discomfort to the early Christian transcribers of the bible.
DOES THE NEW TESTAMENT RECORD IF THE HISTORICAL JESUS EVER LAUGHED? The Old Testament is full of verses praising laughter and humour as an attribute, but nowhere in the New Testament is it recorded that the historical Jesus laughed.
Although such Christian curiosity may appear frivolous and not essential to the tenets of achieving salvation, it is also highly insensitive and cruel to ignore such queries of adoration from the faithful, who merely crave details of their precious saviour, Christ Jesus. One only need to pop-in at various Christian websites, chat rooms, and various blogs, to see how expansive this one query is in casual Christian dialogue and animated discussions. On one global Christian internet site, this common posting can readily be viewed: “The Buddha never weeps, but he laughs. Jesus never laughs, but he weeps.”
One pastor answered that Jesus had a sense of humour when he said: “And again I say to you that it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God.” (Matthew 19:24). The pastor also added another example: “The blind leading the blind,” (Matthew 2:1). The negative, global backlash from staunch Christian followers did not find these analogies appropriate, nor humorous. Quite the contrary.
The tsunami response found the passages as: “A tragically sad commentary of lost souls, and widespread human suffering and eternal damnation – all of which is never an amusing or laughing matter. Such examples are only funny to the sadistic mind.”
Ensuing followers of Christology (including other pastors) agreed that the hyperboles were a grave warning, a portent to disaster if one does not make amends – not a laughing matter. Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem was a joyous moment, but he wept tears of gratitude, and nowhere is it recorded he laughed out loud.
That Jesus not only laughed, but in fact, was “fun and cheerful” to be around, can be (powerfully inferred) from the following. In Matthew 19:14, a tired Jesus sits, with children gleefully approaching him. His apostles attempt to keep the children from bothering him, during his moment of respite. Jesus immediately chastises his disciples in translated Aramaic, “Let the little children come to me and do not try to stop them, for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to such as these.” That he gathered them in his arms is recorded in the three gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke.
Oddly, the truth remains shrouded, veiled, and ostensibly sits there for special eyes only, as the Biblical Jesus stated in his Aramaic language: “Blessed are your eyes because they see and your ears because they hear.” This is a most significant moment.
It reveals much to the eyes and ears. During ancient times, secular and religious antiquity scholars know that the Jewish children loved laughter and occupied much of their leisure times playing an assortment of ancient Hebrew games.
That the children ran to him, laughing, and full of childlike joy reveals that Yeshua (Jesus) must have been a fun, humourous, and joyful person to be with. It belabours the obvious, that such Jewish children refrained and avoided adults who appeared too serious, too foreboding, too frightening to fraternise with. By all reasonable accounts, the children ran to a laughing, fun-filled Jesus, who gathered them around and sat them upon his lap, and entertained them in childlike fun and storytelling. According to antiquity scholars, both Christian and secular, Hebrew children during Jesus’ time played a variety of games, such as “Kugelach” (Five Stones), which dates back over 4,000 years. There were a multitude of Jewish games such as with rudimentary dice and stones.
One Hebrew scholar states: “That Israelite children had toys (dolls, models of animals, etc.) cannot be doubted in view of the archeological discoveries in Jerusalem, Egypt and elsewhere. Children are universal – they all like to play, and sing, dance, and make up imaginary games. “Always finding ways to laugh and be merry. They never would have run to Yeshua (Jesus) if he were a somber, ill-tempered Rabbi. The children enthusiastically ran to him because he made them feel welcomed, and for Hebrew children – that meant laughter and fun-time.” Today, there rests a tablet in the British Museum which contains an ancient Semitic text of children during the time of Yeshua (the Christian Jesus). There, an ancient Aramaic script tells of how the Hebrew children loved to dance, sing, laugh frequently, and partake of riddle-making and riddle-guessing. They were only known to freely run to the most joyful and happy of neighbours and acquaintances. That these Hebrew children, by their own free will, yearned to be in the presence of the historical Jesus – serves up the most powerful of examples of how he, most assuredly, had laughed with them – both loudly and frequently. WAS THE HISTORICAL JESUS HANDSOME OR UNATTRACTIVE? If one is to subscribe to biblical scripture, then one must accept what is found in Isaiah 53:2-3 which clearly states: “He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him.”

paid up to a half million dollars a year. After two years of requesting comment from the county and after three requests this year alone, a spokesperson finally responded with an official statement: “The Los Angeles County Fire Department had approximately 166 full-time Ocean Lifeguards and 600 seasonal recurrent Ocean Lifeguards. All our lifeguards, including those in leadership positions, have taken on an enormous responsibility. They are responsible for protecting 72 miles of coastline, 10,526 square miles of open ocean waters, Catalina Island, and 1,686 square miles of Los Angeles County inland waterways.
In that same year, we had over 50 million beachgoers and our lifeguards executed over 9,286 ocean rescues and responded to over 13,303 medical calls. During large scale brush fires, our lifeguards take on additional responsibilities to work on specialized incident management teams to support firefighters all over the state – as they did in 2021 when wildfires burned an estimated 2,568,948 acres here in California. Additionally, our lifeguards were a critical part of the COVID-19 response efforts. The Lifeguard Division provided personnel, logistics, and incident management qualifications to support COVID-19 Testing and COVID-19 vaccinations all over the County of Los Angeles."

dence (both Christian and secular) strongly suggests that the (average) height of a male Semite during Jesus’ day may have been closer to 5’ 1” tall. Studying skeletal remains and the height of doors from excavated houses in areas where Jesus grew up and preached all seem to suggest this.
That Jesus may have been of (even smaller stature) than the average Semitic male of his day has not been without its supporters. Proponents of this theory often cite a possible clue that may be found in the Gospel of Luke (19:3), wherein Zaccheus attempts to glimpse the charismatic Jesus, who is preaching to a large crowd of followers: “And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and he could not for the crowd, because he was low of stature.”
In other scriptural passages, Jesus’ small height is further alluded to from Mary Magdalene, when she allegedly found his tomb empty and inquired of the ‘gardener,’ where is Jesus? Magdalene then promised to lift Jesus’ body up to carry him away if only she was told where he lay. As one antiquity scholar opined, “Obviously, if Mary Magdalene were capable of physically lifting Jesus up, he would have been of very small stature, even for his day. If the average Semite, two-thousand years ago, was 5’ 1” tall and weighed only 110 pounds, and Jesus was considered small by the standards of his own day – then, he would have been below the norm in both height and weight, as previously stated.” Even the Slavonic copy of “Josephus’ Capture of Jerusalem,” contains the following description of a man wanted by Pontius Pilate for claiming that he was the King of the Jews:
“A man of simple appearance, mature age, dark skin, small stature, three cubits high (three cubits is 4’ 5” in height), hunchbacked with a long face, long nose and meeting eyebrows. And with scanty hair with the parting in the middle of his head, after the manner of the Nazarites, and with an undeveloped beard.” It is compelling that for thousands of years, both religious and non-religious sources mention that not only was Jesus not attractive, but, he was unusually short in stature, as well.
CONCLUSION: It has been said that both atheists and Christians are, in fact, in the same boat: neither have absolute, verifiable, proof if the historical Jesus was truly a divine, Messianic figure.

Dumping Ground for Sexually Violent Predators?
What happens to Sexually Violent Predators (SVPs) once they’ve served their sentences? Apparently, they get dumped in rural San Diego County.
Rural areas lack resources to supervise conditionally released SVPs and guarantee public safety. In San Diego County, multiple SVPs have been placed in Jacumba Hot Springs, Campo and Boulevard, with proposed placements in communities like Pauma Valley and Borrego Springs. I’ve written letters in the past opposing placement of SVPs in rural communities, including in 2020 when I wrote to the Superior Court regarding placing an SVP in Pauma Valley. Fortunately, that proposal was blocked, but Borrego Springs is still under consideration to house a convicted child molester. There will be a hearing on July 8th, and I have again written a letter to the judge explaining this individual must be placed elsewhere. Does the state purposely place SVPs in rural locations lacking the clout to generate public outcry that can block these placements, as recently happened in Rancho Bernardo? Currently, the Department of State Hospitals, which oversees placement, contracts with Liberty Healthcare, which then seeks court approval. County District Attorneys aren’t consulted, and have also
expressed frustration.
This must stop. That’s why I joined Senator Brian Jones to co-author SB 841, requiring the State Hospital Director to approve SVP placements before contracts are signed -- with public safety an overriding consideration. Mandated reports would list suitable alternate properties, including properties under Department of Corrections or Forestry and Fire Protection control. The Director would also list counties and supervisorial districts receiving SVPs. Naturally, San Diego County is one of the bill’s supporters. Unfortunately however, SB 841 was killed in the Senate Public Safety Committee by the Democrat majority. Even so, I’ll keep trying, and I’ll keep doing all I can to block placements of SVPs in rural communities. Rural San Diego County cannot remain a dumping ground for Sexually Violent Predators. Assemblymember Marie Waldron, RValley Center, represents the 75th Assembly District in the California Legislature, which includes the communities of Bonsall, Escondido, Fallbrook, Hidden Meadows, Pala, Palomar Mountain, Pauma Valley, Rainbow, San Marcos, Temecula, Valley Center and Vista.

What Does a Supervisor Supervise?
One of the questions I get asked frequently is ‘What does a Supervisor supervise?’ Many people aren’t sure what a County Supervisor does, so I wanted to explain a bit about what my role is as your County representative. The County is the local government entity for the unincorporated area (everywhere not in a city). In North County, that entails Valley Center, Fallbrook, Bonsall, Borrego Springs, Pauma Valley, and Rainbow, Ranchita...just to name a few communities. For these communities, the County is in charge of their public roads and infrastructure, law enforcement, and land-use decisions.
For the cities, which in my district are Oceanside, Vista, San Marcos, and Escondido, they each have a city council to determine their law enforcement, land use, roads and infrastructure. Regionally, including all cities and the unincorporated area, County government manages social services such as child welfare and the foster care system, aging and independent services for seniors, public health, beach and water quality, restaurant inspections (the "A" grades you see
in the windows), the District Attorney and the Public Defender are both County functions, agriculture, jails and court houses, and many more functions, are run by the County across the region.
The County of San Diego also has four countywide elected positions the Sheriff, the District Attorney, the Assessor/ Recorder/ County Clerk, and the Treasurer/Tax Collector.
That's a very basic overview of County services and functions. There's plenty more, and if you ever have a question on any topic, please don't hesitate to reach out. I work for you, so I am always here to help and assist with whatever you need.

Travel Troubleshooter
Q: Last fall, my wife and I traveled to eastern Europe for a river cruise. We missed our connection in London because of a flight delay. Our airline rerouted us to Paris and Prague, with the last leg on CSA Czech Airlines. Our luggage did not arrive with us. We immediately filed a lost luggage claim at the Prague airport. When the luggage still did not come the next day, and there was no word on when or if it would, we went shopping for clothes and toiletries. The luggage finally arrived late that same night. After the trip, we filed for expense reimbursement with Czech Airlines, since they were the ones that delayed our luggage. I filed by using their online form. I received an immediate canned response that they would process our claim as soon as possible. When I heard nothing further for three weeks, I followed up, again using their online form. I received the same canned response. After waiting almost three more weeks with no answer, I sent an email to their call center explaining the situation and asking about the status of my claim. (I got the email address from your website.)
An airline representative said wait times were longer than normal but promised to get back to me as soon as possible. That was four months ago. I would simply like Czech Airlines to adjudicate the claim and decide what, if anything, they are going to reimburse. -- Dick Helms, Tucson, Ariz. A: CSA Czech Airlines should have promptly processed your claim, as promised. High traffic and call volume is one thing, but the airlines can't use that excuse for months. Your claim just fell between the cracks, and the airline covered its incompetence with form letters. There was nothing unusual about your claim. You filed it on time, the items you purchased were reasonable, and you gave the airline all the documentation needed to process the claim. Usually, when a reimbursement claim goes sideways, it's because someone bought something the airline wouldn't cover or filed the claim too late. I could see no evidence of any of that. The only place where I can find fault is where you allowed the drug store to convert your dollars to korunas. Always let your bank do the conversion; otherwise, you'll get hit with fees and an unfavorable exchange rate.
You did the right thing by appealing to a manager, and I'm happy that you found the executive contacts for CSA Czech Airlines that I list on my consumer advocacy site, Elliott.org. You used those contacts at the right moment, when it became clear that they would not

process your claim quickly.
I contacted the airline on your behalf. It "found" your claim and processed a refund of $414 for the clothing and toiletries.

Q: My grandniece is getting married soon. We used the travel information she provided online to book our room at a Hampton Inn.
When we clicked on the link, it opened up a webpage listing the rooms available for the wedding dates in the special block with a nonrefundable rate of $264.
The ‘Golden Age’ Depends Upon Your Age
We often hear the phrase “that was back in the ‘golden age’ (of whatever you want to discuss – television, movies, lifestyle, politics, cars). Probably the most commonly discussed “golden age’ has to do with communication – and, depending upon your age, that can take in a wide variety of subjects -- magazines, newspapers, television, and radio.
We thought the rate was high, but we followed the wedding party's instructions. Two days later, we got a call from the bride's mother informing us that our room rate was supposed to be $149 and instructing us to call the manager at the Hampton Inn to get it straightened out.
In that call, we found out that the block of rooms allocation must have been filled when we used the website to book the room, so it quoted the $264 price. The block allocation had already been extended before we contacted the local manager. The manager said he could not modify or cancel the reservation since I made it on the Hilton website. He gave us a number for Hilton and suggested that they could cancel or change our reservation. We called Hilton and requested that they modify the reservation to be the wedding block rate of $149 or cancel and refund the reservation. We got nowhere. They did offer to cancel the reservation and give us 12 months to use the whole $264 for a booking at another Hilton property. We did not accept that offer. We don't plan on booking any $264 per night rooms during the next 12 months. Can you help? -- Carol Egan, Marco Island, Fla.
A: Congratulations on your grandniece getting married. It was nice of her to find a block of hotel rooms at the Hampton Inn for her family, but you're right -- $226 a night is a little high for a night at the Hampton Inn. When you see a rate like that, don't click on it, even if your family has arranged the rate. You're better off calling the hotel and asking for a better rate. Or you can stay somewhere else and use the money you save to buy your grandniece a nice wedding

Remember Collier’s, Saturday Evening Post, Life, or Look? No? Then you hadn’t made your arrival here on earth until after the 1950s. Among many others, these were popular weekly magazines that were the ‘People” magazines of their day. News magazines such as Time and U.S. News & World Report were in their heyday by mid-century. Life, for example, began publishing in 1937, but ended it’s weekly press run in 1971. It was among the top weekly picture publications. One could say the late 1800s to the first half of the 20th century was the golden age of newspapers. Every major city in America had at least two newspapers. New York City had seven. Interestingly enough, today overseas cities such as London, Paris, Melbourne, Sydney, and Berlin each have more than four. Most of those cities sell their newspaper via street vendors. Door-to-door delivery seems to be an American thing. Today, Chicago has three down from four, and New York City is down to three from seven until the seventies. San Diego’s three has dwindled to just one daily for the entire county.
We’d have to include a golden age of automobiles during the twenties through the sixties. Some of the most inventive vehicles were born and sold. The Stanley Steamer (yes, it was powered by steam and went very fast). And there was the luxurious hand-built Duesenberg, which was a ‘real doozie.” There were a number of electric-powered cars. Those left from the “Greatest Generation” will remember the Graham, and the Cord. Those of us who have been around since the thirties, forties and fifties remember
Packard, DeSoto, Willys, Kaiser, Frasier, Crosley, and, for a very short time, the Tucker? One of the bestbuilt, but ugliest probably was Ford’s Edsel. It just didn’t attract enough drivers. The grill might have had something to do with it. Radio’s golden age began in the late twenties and lasted little more than two decades (1930s through the 1940s). Many of future TV star performers, sit-com and drama formats were developed during this period. But anyone born after 1950 would probably not have experienced the comedy, drama, quiz shows and much more wonderful programming given birth during that period. Many of us rushed home from school to listen in on our radios to “The Lone Ranger,” “Sky King,” “Sergeant Preston of the Yukon,” and “Straight Arrow.”
Mysteries and dramas such as “The Shadow,” and “Nick Carter, Private Eye,” “Johnny Dollar” “Gangbusters” “Intersanctum,” and “Lux Radio Theater.” Nighttime radio broadcasting had millions of listeners turning in to comedies such as “Fibber McGee & Molly,” “The Life of Riley,” “Bob Hope, “Jack Benny, “George Burns & Gracie Allen,” “The Great Gildersleeve” -- all made us laugh.
In 1939 a 24-year-old Orson Wells had half the nation scared the Martians had landed in New Jersey when his Mercury Players presented on radio George Orwell’s ‘War of the Worlds” Nowadays when the “Golden Age” of anything is mentioned, the first thing that comes to mind is television. While most of us older folk associated with the fifties, it really isn’t true. Years from now people will look back at today’s present-time period as “The Golden Age of Television.” Think about it – television sets, programming, and reception has never been as good as they are now. No more “snowy” pictures … “fade-outs,” or “test patterns.” Television sets are bigger, better, and lower-priced than ever before – and, you can hang them on the wall.
Some will argue that radio is more dramatic producing programming than TV because our brains can conjured up pictures in our minds as we sat listening to “Mr. Keen” tracing lost persons, or “Sam Spade” getting in a fistfight with a bad guy.
Today’s television programming is far-reaching. There’s very little that you can think of that isn’t available on a wide variety of “streaming” channels. Movie theaters have all but been wiped out because of today’s modern era of television. “On Demand” programming has new movies available while some are still in the theaters – if you can find one that hasn’t closed down. Theater’s are attempting a comeback, but the jury is still out as to whether they’ll make a profitable go of it. Cable TV offers 24-hour news with talking heads spewing all sorts of opinions. In some ways, television, computers, cell phones, and video games are almost too good – they keep us on our butts and dangerously inactive. You could say we’re presently in the “Golden Age of Indulgence.”

His Name was Not JESUS! Cont. from Page 6
Many atheists and agnostics, generally, agree with Christians that the historical Jesus, as a mortal, lived the most virtuous life in all of human history. Staunch atheist and TV host, Bill Maher, who is adamantly against religion and refers to ‘believers’ as morons, does concede that: “Jesus, as a philosopher, is wonderful.
There is no greater role model, in my view, than Jesus Christ.” Seemingly, without verifiable proof, or without seeing with your own sight, there is no God.
There are eight strange and haunting words found in the Christian Bible (2 Corinthians 5:7) which simply states: “For we walk by faith, not by sight.” For me, personally, I never doubted the Man from Nazareth. He was everything he said he was . . . and much, much more.

You don’t want to shake hands with anyone immediately after using the urinal and I think most guys feel the same way so I was sure he appreciated it. I finished before he did but upon stuffing myself back in my pants, I said, “A pleasure meeting you!” Admittedly I should have thought about something somehow more fitting to say but my mind went blank. It was still seeming surreal to me. I did a quick hand wash and paper towel drying and split back down to the theatre.
There is something about the awkwardness of a men’s room when guys are getting reassembled in their pants and zipping up. You don’t want to witness that either. You kind of try to appear catatonic, clean up and get the hell out. I hoped he was about to finish because the show was starting and you don’t want to walk down to the front row of a theatre in the middle of the play.

I said “God. We peed together.”
Confident I had lost my marbles, she said, “Shoosh, the show is starting.” I never did see Charlton Heston again to get that autograph nor did we pee together but I wonder if he remembered having a conversation with a complete stranger peeing together. I somehow think he probably retold that story in his own way because it was memorable. Maybe more for me than him.

Be extra careful when you book a nonrefundable rate (even if it's with your family's apparent blessing). Hotels love nonrefundable rates because it means they get to keep your money no matter what happens. And it appears that would include you booking a room at the wrong rate. Want a refund? Tough luck -- it's nonrefundable!
There's no reason hotel rates should ever be nonrefundable. Usually, hotels will offer a small discount -10 to 20 percent -- in exchange for nonrefundability. In your case, they skipped the discount and just added the onerous terms. Come on. Never, ever book a nonrefundable hotel rate.
You sent a brief, polite email to the executives at Hilton and you received a quick response.

However, as a "one-time exception and gesture of good faith," Hilton refunded the full $264. "We at Hilton thank you for bringing this matter to our attention and hope that this does not deter you from staying with our brands in the future," the representative added.

Greetings Escondido,
I hate to be a nag, but I am looking at the Primary Election percentage turnout and to be honest, it was pretty low. I get that it was a primary and they don’t generally get big numbers of voters, but this one was low even by that standard.
We are facing some tough choices in our future, and so who we elect or what propositions/measures we support do make a difference. We all know the old adage that the down ballot elections impact our daily lives more than who is president.
So, I am going ask that you make a commitment to get engaged and informed in this next election in November. And of course, please vote. We are in the season where the rhetoric flourishes almost unchecked. But this is the season where we need to put our practical hats on and really make good common-sense decisions that benefit the community and not some partisan or single-issue agenda. I have a lot of faith in our collective wisdom, so let’s put it to good use. Stay informed, Be Kind, Remember your neighbor, and Stay safe! Semper Fi, Mac Paul P. McNamaraMayor of Escondido pmcnamara@escondido.org

An Italian, a Scotsman and a Chinese man are hired for a construction site. The USACE foreman points out a huge pile of sand. He says to the Italian guy, "You're in charge of sweeping." To the Scotsman he says, "You're in charge of shoveling." To the Chinese guy he says, "You're in charge of supplies."
He then says, "Now, I have to leave for a little while. While I'm gone, I expect you men to make a big dent in that pile of sand." So when the USACE foreman returns after being away for a couple of hours the pile of sand is untouched. He asks the Italian, "Why didn't you sweep up any of the sand?"
The Italian replies, "I no hava no broom. You saida to the Chinesea fella he a wasa ina charge of supplies but he hasa disappeared and I no couldna finda him nowhere."
Then the foreman turns to the Scotsman and says, "And you, I thought I told you to shovel this pile." The Scotsman replies, "Aye, that ye did laddie, boot ah could nae get meself a shoovel. Ye left th' Chinese gadgie in chairge of supplies, boot ah couldna fin' him neither." The foreman is really angry now. He storms off toward the pile of sand to look for the Chinese gent. Just then, the Chinese man leaps out from behind the pile of sand and yells "SUPPLIES!" •••• These fit so well they should be in a dictionary.

fraud victim socially isolated and physically frail, did not align with reality”. Differing levels of health, sociability, education and income also do not correlate with senior’s susceptibility to Internet fraud. It appears that seniors are as diverse as any other age group and it’s not the physical and mental process of aging itself that determines a senior’s vulnerability to fraud so much as what has happened to us as we age.

Why do “seniors” lose three billion dollars annually to Internet scams? Part II of II
Seniors lose more money to “scams than any other age group. One reason is that seniors are specifically targeted by scammers because seniors have more money than any other age group. There is a general assumption that when seniors become victims of Internet scams, it is simply a result of age related cognitive decline. Even other seniors are prone to making this assumption. While age related infirmity can be a factor, it is only one of many factors that make senior’s vulnerable to internet fraud. An AARP funded study found “the prevailing stereotype of an elderly

As we get older the people around us who we’ve counted on for advice and support through our lives, are, one by one, taken from us. Of the nearly sixty million seniors (over 65) living in the USA, about 25% live alone, (five million men and ten million women). Many missing a loving partner who helped them make every important decision through a lifetime.
opportunities. Because these scams rarely cause harm to the computer itself, we don’t get directly involved. The scams we see are exploits that compromise your computer. Often it begins with a message informing you that your PC has a problem that needs to be fixed. You contact them, give them access to your PC, and eventually they tell you to pay $200-$500 or they won’t fix it. Now your PC doesn’t work. You either pay them and hope for the best (not a good idea), or hang up and bring it to us (best plan). We can probably fix it for of fraction of what they ask.
We seniors come from a kinder gentler age where honesty, friendship and civility were common virtues expected from everyone, even strangers. Times have changed, but not us. The Internet is a highway for the entire works of man, everything good and everything evil lives on the Internet. In that respect it’s like the rest of the World. Learning how to use the good and avoid the bad is mostly common sense. But if you are in doubt, you can ask Google, call a friend, call us, or just say no.
As we lose our support systems we tend to become less confident, more fearful, and more protective of our own fragile independence. Seniors are better than any other age group at recognizing and reporting potential Internet and telephone fraud as long as we don’t get scammed, but when we lose money to a fraudulent exploit, we clam up. We are the worst age group at reporting fraud when we are the victim. We would rather let the scammer get away with stealing from us than risk looking like an “old fool” to others. The big money losses occur when seniors are duped into fraudulent payments with credit cards, checks, bank drafts, money transfers and money cards. They involve get rich schemes, romantic entanglements, investments, bailing out relatives, lotteries, sweepstakes and an endless list attractive

A filthy rich Florida man decided that he wanted to throw a party and invited all of his buddies and neighbors. He also invited Curt, the only Redneck in the neighborhood. He held the party around the pool in the backyard of his mansion. Curt was having a good time drinking, dancing, eating shrimp, oysters and BBQ and flirting with all the women.
At the height of the party, the host said, 'I have a 10 foot man-eating gator in my pool and I'll give a million dollars to anyone who has the nerve to jump in.”

Curt was fighting the gator and kicking its rear! Curt was jabbing it in the eyes with his thumbs, throwing punches, head butts and choke holds, biting the gator on the tail and flipping it through the air like some kind of Judo Instructor.
The water was churning and splashing everywhere. Both Curt and the gator were screaming and raising heck. Finally Curt strangled the gator and let it float to the top like a dime store goldfish. Curt then slowly climbed out of the pool. Everybody was just staring at him in disbelief.
Finally the host says, 'Well, Curt, I reckon I owe you a million dollars.' 'No, that's okay. I don't want It,' said Curt.
The rich man said, 'Man, I have to give you something You won the bet. How about half a million bucks then?' “No thanks, I don't want it,' answered Curt.
The host said, 'Come on, I insist on giving you something. That was amazing. How about a new Porsche and a Rolex and some stock options?'
