alifornia State Assemblymember Chris Holden (D-Pasadena) recalled the time he and his mother

witnessed Martin Luther King Jr. speak at the Friendship Baptist Church in his hometown in 1965.

“I remember after Dr. King spoke, my mother said ‘I’m going to go up and shake his hand.’ Now the sea of people between us and

Breakfast on Monday January 19. “But she did it anyway.”

Holden spoke about his lifetime journey—one that allowed him to attend desegregated schools in the 1970s and see his father former State Senator Nate Holden create a bill to commemorate King’s life in California through celebration in 1981. The Majority Floor Leader said his remembrance of the past has allowed him to see what has motivated him to look towards the future. He believes the passion and service of King’s generation must continue.

“We have to teach our young people the sacrifices made on their behalf by Martin Luther King Jr. and an entire movement,” he said.

The record-breaking crowd at the National Orange Show on Monday was treated to an array of spokenword poetry, singing, and keynote speeches that commemorated Dr. King’s legacy and the work the Inland Empire Concerned African American Churches (IECAAC), the event’s long time organizers.

“Beyond the Boundaries” Award recipient Keith Lee recollected

memories of the period when San Bernardino County decided to begin to recognize and celebrate the Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday. He said the actions of many people in the audience—more distinctively the Westside Action Group (WAG)—encouraged the San Bernardino County Supervisors to recognize the importance of the day to the African-American community.

“When I first came to the County of San Bernardino in the 1990s, I learned that of the 58 counties, San Bernardino was the last to bring the MLK holiday,” he said. “Many of the recipients here today, in particular WAG, started agitating to advocate for the holiday. I want to say thank you to WAG, thank you to the African American churches for what you have done, and thank you for the young people for continuing King’s legacy because many of us are moving on.”

World War II veteran Jack Hill— who received the Patriot Award— said, “time is limited”, and emphasized the importance of companionship.

“I can’t help but think back to the many people I met,” he said. “We

need to realize how important we are to one another. It is important that we treat each other right.”

In addition to the Prayer Breakfast at the National Orange Show, other community members and a vast majority of the former event’s attendees met beside the statue of King that stands near San Bernardino City Hall for a small ceremony organized by the Martin Luther King Statue Renovation and Maintenance Committee.

The ceremony included a recitation of the “I Have a Dream” speech and the laying of a wreath near King’s feet.

“We can’t sing ‘We shall overcome’ yet,” said Frances Grice, one of the committee’s directors.

“We haven’t overcome yet. ... But if we vote, we can move from protest to power.”

Responsible for neighborhood cleanups and community movie nights, the non-profit organization now intends to put their focus on more aesthetic-based efforts that they believe can improve residents’ quality of life.

Community organizers who were present were Michael Segura and Jorge Heredia of San Bernardino Generation Now, Church of Nazarene senior pastor Susan Carole, and IPS regional director Sandra Espadas. IPS coordinators Melody Segura-Suarez and Lashea West acted as the event’s moderators.

Segura, 23, a lifetime resident of the city said he became frustrated with the social and economic situation that led to the bankruptcy, but did not become deterred by its negativity. Instead he decided to influence teenagers and young adults to utilize their art skills to encourage change.

“I think art is one of the easiest ways you can engage the community,” he said. “It beautifies and in-

spires people. Art transcends race, gender, and language. It can be a powerful tool.”

Focus group questions and discussion points concentrated on highlighting the capability of mural projects to make a positive impact on community members, as well as logistical factors such as the type of paint needed to produce a mural, the ability to attract residents, and the challenges artists may face if mural projects are undertaken in San Bernardino.

The biggest challenge community organizers and residents will face is graffiti. Some residents suggested choosing a location that is not heavily influenced by street gangs may see more efforts towards preservation and maintenance of murals. Others said applying an anti-graffiti coat of paint, while expensive, may save the city lots of money in the long run.

Andrew Sorcini, 14, a student at the Options for Youth charter school said he attended the meeting with his mother to learn how he can encourage his peers and other youth to help reduce trash and use their skills to change the community.

“Everyone is kind of low and sad in San Bernardino,” he said. “Besides a mural project, more trash

pickup events and building maintenance will make our city look better. I can try to help by getting my friends to come out by sharing events through social media.”

San Bernardino Ramblers come up short in bid to attract pro football

T

By Harvey M. Kahn

he San Bernardino Ramblers came about $6,000 short of becoming the city's first professional football team. In 1968, the Continental Football League was making a major push at the rival the NFL and AFL to become a legitimate professional league. A group of Orange County businessmen wanted to relocate their team. The San Bernardino City Council guaranteed them $10,000 to play a game at the 10,000 seat Orange Show Stadium. The Ramblers played two games in town. The first managed to draw a paid attendance of about 1,000. Since general admission was $4, that left the city making up the $6,000 difference.

According to the San Bernardino Sun-Telegram and Associated Press that deficit was enough for then mayor Al Ballard and the city council to stop any more monetary support. It was one of many reasons why the Continental Football League folded after the 1969 season. Some news reports called the league nothing more than semi-pro in caliber. Before coming to San Bernardino, the Ramblers were two-time defending Pacific Division champions who played home games at Anaheim Stadium.

Without the City of San Bernardino's support, numerous local businessmen began laying the financial support for the Ramblers to play in 1969. Season tickets went on sale and the team opened office headquarters. But the signals of doom started appear-

Two weeks later the CFL announced the San Bernardino Ramblers were no longer in existence. A month later, those who bought season tickets wanted their money back. But Rambler's officials supposedly snuck out of San Bernardino without explanation.

The Ramblers fielded a decent roster. Bob Jackson was their big running back from Riverside who played for the Chargers and Hous-

In the big picture, the Ramblers and the Continental Football League had a good infrastructure.

Yet, like most of its teams the skill was there but the timing was off.

It's first commissioner Happy Chandler resigned just before he could negotiate an alleged guaranteed television contract with ABC in what would have been the first Monday Night Football telecasts.

After the CFL Indianapolis Capitols made a serious bid to sign O.J. Simpson in 1968 out of USC, the NFL and AFL realized a possible threat and joined to pressure the new league out.

CSUSB to host Education and Civil Rights Town Hall on Jan. 24

T

he public is invited to attend a civil rights town hall forum at Cal State San Bernardino on Saturday, Jan. 24, to discuss issues affecting the African American community.

The forum, “Civil Rights Town Hall: We Must Educate, Not Incarcerate,” will be from 9:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., and will be held in the theater of the university’s College of Education building, said Wil Greer, a CSUSB assistant professor of education.

“The purpose of the town hall is to create an ongoing dialogue on civil rights issues that matter most to African Americans,” Greer said. “We want to have a dialogue that addresses issues important to our community, for example the recent shooting deaths of several unarmed black men by

the police; the preschool to prison pipeline; the K-16 achievement gap; and parent advocacy for our children. We want to invite the community to be actively involved in the discussion.”

The forum approach will be twofold: draft a working list of modern civil rights issues pertaining to education that the community must work to protect, and draft a working list of modern strategies and approaches for securing these rights, Greer said.

The town hall will feature a panel session and then breakout sessions afterward.

The panel session will feature California Assembly member Cheryl Brown, representing the 47th District; Mary Texeira, a professor of sociology at CSUSB; A.C. Jones, a juvenile

justice attorney; Daniel E. Walker, an author and filmmaker; and Joseph Paulino, police chief for the San Bernardino City Unified School District.

Greer will serve as the panel session moderator.

The breakout sessions will allow the attendees to work on creating strategies and approaches on civil rights issues, Greer said.

into various geographical divisions, with three teams in Canada and one in Monterrey, Mexico.

The Ramblers were in the Pacific Division with Las Vegas, Spokane, Seattle, Hawaii, Portland, and San Jose, whose coach was future 49er's coach Bill Walsh. The Las Vegas Cowboys were coached by former Ram's player Duane Allen, who was the first pro black head coach. Jackie Robinson was the general manager of the Brooklyn Dodgers CBL entry. They were sued by the Los Angeles Dodgers baseball team for copyright infringement even though Los Angeles had left Brooklyn eight years earlier.

Proof of the quality of the short lived CBL was that it sent 67 players to NFL. But it never produced something as simple as a set of collector football cards, which was a major promotional oversight in that era. Then the travel, food and lodging costs started mounting.

CBL teams in the Midwest were averaging 14,000 and were becoming self sufficient. Instead of growing where it needed to, the CFL seemed to be expanding too fast in the east and west. Since San Bernardino was located near the markets of the Los Angeles Rams and San Diego Chargers it just couldn't compete.

panded tax credits to help working families. He also wants Congress to require paid sick leave for the 43 million American workers who don't already have it. And because many jobs now require some form of higher education, Obama wants to let anyone attend community college for free, so long as they keep their grades up and graduate on time.

The president suggests paying for these proposals by raising the top tax rate on capital gains to 28 percent, and extending it to cover inherited wealth. The White House says 99 percent of the additional taxes would be paid by the wealthiest 1 percent of Americans…”

2015 State of the Union Recap: President touts “middle-class economics”

T

here are a few topics I don’t necessarily touch on or feel the need to spark a conversation about: politics, religion and money.

The way I see it, to each is their own.

But it’s only fitting that I bring up President Obama’s 2015 State of the Union address.

Tuesday night, he delivered his sixth address and I’m positive there’s plenty that people will be debating about.

But not here.

I’m simply going to recap his prepared remarks for those who didn’t catch the SOTU. In fact, for those interested, they can head over to www.whitehouse.gov and watch the hour-long address.

A few things he touted, "middleclass economics,” and how Americans have rebounded after the worst economic crisis, proposals to offer new child tax credits, raise the minimum wage, extend paid family leave and make college more affordable.

"It has been, and still is, a hard time for many," President Obama said. "But tonight, we turn the page."

A post on NPR.org—State Of The Union Primer: What President Obama Proposed— Wednesday morning following the address helps recap “middle-class economics”: “Obama's budget proposal will call for a number of new and ex-

In response to President Obama’s 2015 State of the Union address, Representative Pete Aguilar, who was joined by Rialto Mayor Deborah Robertson for the State of the Union address, released the following statement: “While I agree with President Obama that we have made progress getting the nation’s economy back on track, the Inland Empire still has a long road toward economic recovery. As San Bernardino County families continue struggling to make ends meet, we need policies that create jobs, strengthen the region’s economy, and make sure families can keep more of their hard-earned money.

“That’s why I applaud President Obama’s proposals to make the economy fairer for middle class families by raising the federal minimum wage and making the tax code more fair for middle class and low-income families – proposals that will put more money in the pockets of hardworking Inland Empire residents.

“For too many families, the cost of pursuing higher education is a major obstacle to achieving the American Dream. That’s why I strongly support the President’s proposal to offer two years of free community college. This proposal will enable thousands of local students to achieve their dreams and increase the educational attainment of our region. I look forward to working to make this initiative a reality.”

Freedom of speech sometimes silenced

We can be thankful that our government doesn’t deny us freedom of expression. Nevertheless, there are plenty of self-appointed commissars among us who consider it their mission to be the judge of what is allowed to be discussed and what is not.

The sad result is that anyone who questions, for example, our nation’s prevalent religion or who dares to point out the moral blemishes that have tarnished our history is immediately silenced.

I don’t think free expression is the problem. Interpretation is. Information can be changed, paraphrased or misquoted on purpose to get the public to believe anything. Politicians do it all the time.

Some of my letters have been edited and condensed resulting in loss of my true meaning.

In the art world, putting obscene and pornographic pictures and videos out to the public is a right,

albeit not politically correct. There is a big fear of expressing oneself when criticizing government leaders and procedures — fear of being labeled as subversive. On the job we are told to not express some thoughts as being cause for trouble-making. The right of free speech is enigmatic — some subjects acceptable in some areas and frowned upon in others. I feel free to express myself but I also realize I have to accept what the listener thinks that is. I think the question to ask is, What is free expression?

Words to Think About: Today’s Senior Citizen T

Outstanding Local High School Student Tiffany Rekem Selected to Perform at Carnegie Hall

K

By G. W. Abersold Ph.D.

ing David, of Jewish history wrote in one of his Psalms that our allotted years are “three score and ten,” or 70 years. In my opinion I think he wrote that after a bad night with Bathsheba.

In the Book of Genesis, (6:3) the statement is made that our years shall be 120. I like that better. In a recent scientific news article the view-point was expressed that before the end of this century there will be thousands of people reaching the age of 120.

There is an amazing revolution going on in the world today. It revolves around the problem of aging. The mandatory age of 65 to retire is no longer viable.

Seniors are continuing to work way beyond the age of 65. I read the other day that Howard Schultz the owner of Starbucks is hiring more and more seniors. I’ve also noticed that many fast food restaurants like McDonalds, Subway, Taco-Bell, Jack-in-the Box, Wendy’s and Burger King have older people behind the counter.

On November 30, 2014 Anne Tergesen wrote a most provocative article on aging. Her basic premise was that the traditional views about aging are all wrong. They are myths.

I was fascinated the other day

T

when I read a statement made by David Mintz, CEO of Tofutti in Granford, New Jersey. He stated, “I want employees with energy and enthusiasm, fresh thinking, who start the day early and work late.” Then he concluded with the words, “and I found them in older workers.”

Seniors are also crowding classrooms with their presence. They are going back to school. News and our world is advancing at a rapid pace. Seniors don’t want to be left behind. They are an expanding minority.

Using Anne Tergesen’s article as a springboard, she challenges various myths commonly believed about seniors.

First myth. SENIORS ARE OFTEN DEPRESSED. In spite of declining health, that assumption is not true. According to the National Institute of Health, only 10% of seniors give evidence of depression, being cranky or irritable.

I’m often reminded of the words of Norman Cousins, which he wrote when he was in his 70’s.

“No one knows enough to be pessimistic or depressed.”

Second myth. SENIORS SUFFER FROM COGNITIVE DECLINE. The truth is that concentration and memory begin to slip around age 30. We seniors certainly have aches and pains, but seldom do we lose cognition.

Third myth. OLDER WORKERS ARE LESS PRODUCTIVE. What a farce. Workers 55 or older make up 22% of the U.S. labor force. The majority of academic studies find there is virtually no relationship between age and job performance.

Fourth myth. LONELINESS IS MORE LIKELY. This also is in error. Of course many of our friends either die or move away.

Again, the same studies indicate that friendships tend to improve with age. Who is traveling on ships; buying cars, shopping at Wal-Mart, member of clubs and

churches: You guessed it, seniors.

Fifth myth. CREATIVITY DECLINES WITH AGE. A recent study at the University of Chicago found that 300 of our nation’s leading poets, artists and musicians had produced their best works in their senior years. Creativity is not limited to the young.

Finally, Tergesen states that, “all research shows that older employees are just as creative, just as productive and just as sharp as younger workers.”

They (seniors) are also better balanced mentally and more creative.

“Experience also helps them to make fewer mistakes.”

To further enlighten our minds, consider the following people that qualify as seniors. President Obama, Vice President Biden, John Kerry, Bill and Hillary Clinton, Jeb Bush, Mit Romney. All members of the Supreme Court are seniors.

In the House of Representatives, 6 members are in their 80’s, 41 in their 70’s, 137 in their 60’s and 144 members in their 50’s. All seniors. Hello, John Boehner In the Senate, 5 are in their 80’s, 18 in their 70’s, 32 are in their 60’s, and 30 are in their 50’s. All seniors. Hello, Mitch McConnell.

Interestingly, most owners of professional sport teams are seniors and many of their coaches.

When it comes to wealth, Carlos Slim Helu, Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, Christy Walton (Wal-Mart), Howard Schultz and Oprah Winfrey are all seniors.

Now for creative artists. Betty White 93, Tina Turner 73, Goldie Hawn 67, Meryl Streep 64, Jane Fonda 75, Cher 67, Vanessa Redgrave 76; to name just a few. All seniors.

The men include Clint Eastwood, Michael Caine, Anthony Hopkins, Richard Gere, Robert Redford, Robert Duval, Ed Harris, Dustin Hoffman, Sean Connery; to name just a few.

Amen. Selah. So be it.

Feldheym Library First Floor Tentatively Scheduled to Re-Open Thursday, Jan. 22

he Feldheym Central Library re-carpeting project is well underway and the first floor is tentatively scheduled to re-open to the public on Thursday, Jan. 22.

Services on the second floor, including the 24 free public computers in the Cosand Computer Learning Center and Jack Hill Lifelong Learning Center offering literacy and other services, likely won’t resume for a few additional days after the first floor opens due to library IT staff having to rewire PCs and moving equipment back into place.

The three branch libraries of the San Bernardino Public Library continue to offer expanded public service hours beyond their usual 20 weekly hours until Feldheym re-opens.

“The SBPL Board of Trustees knows how much the residents of San Bernardino value their libraries and asked staff to continue to provide the best public service we can during this project” said

Ed Erjavek, Library Director. “We appreciate the patience of our patrons during this major project.”

Library expanded branch service days and service hours during the Feldheym closure are as follows: Inghram (1505 W. Highland): Tuesday – Thursday 10 a.m. – 6 p.m., Friday 2 – 6 p.m., Saturday 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. and closed Monday and Sunday.

Rowe (108 E. Marshall): Monday and Tuesday 11 a.m.– 8 p.m., Wednesday and Thursday 10 a.m.

– 6 p.m., Saturday 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. and closed Friday and Sunday.

Villaseñor (525 N. Mt. Vernon): Monday – Thursday 10 a.m. – 6 p.m., Saturday 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. and closed Friday and Sunday.

Materials that are checked out may be returned to the book drop at Feldheym when it is closed, or any of the branch libraries.

Feldheym, which will celebrate its 30th anniversary in 2015, still had its original carpeting until this project began. Most of the funding

for this project comes from an insurance settlement following a 2013 flood and Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funding. Almost all of the carpet in the 64,000-square-foot facility is to be replaced.

“This project will be a major upgrade for Feldheym,” Erjavek said. “We’d like to thank the Mayor and Common Council, City Manager Allen Parker, Public Works Director Tony Frossard, Brandon Mims of the City Manager’s office, Rick Moreno of City Facilities, the SBPL Board of Trustees and everyone else who has supported and contributed to this much-needed project. ” Patrons are encouraged to check the library’s web site at www.sbpl.org or call 381-8201 for updates.

She will perform as a first soprano at Carnegie Hall in February 2015 with the Honors Choir. Participation in one of the three Honors Ensembles is limited to the highest rated high school performers from across North America and select schools internationally.

Tiffany Rekem, a sophomore, auditioned this fall for the Honors Performance Series and was accepted after a review by the Honors Selection Board. Acceptance to the elite group is a direct result of the talent, dedication, and achievements demonstrated in her application and audition recording. Tiffany will join other performers from 49 United States, several provinces in Canada, and several foreign countries for a special performance at world-famous Carnegie Hall, a venue that marks the pinnacle of musical achievement.

According to Morgan Smith, Program Director, “Being selected to the Honors Performance Series is something each Finalist should be extremely proud of accomplishing. We process more than ten thousand nominations annually, selecting only the most talented performers applying on an international level. Working with these conductors and performing at Carnegie Hall is a once-in-alifetime experience that these stu-

dent musicians never forget.”

Tiffany has studied music for 11 years and was a second-round finalist at the Classical Singer Competitions in 2013 and 2014. In response to her selection as a Finalist, Tiffany said, “I'm extremely honored and humbled to be able to participate in such a respected program and to be given the opportunity to meet others just as passionate about music as I am.”

Finalists will come together for five days in February 2015 in New York City to have the opportunity to learn from conductor Dr. Eph Ehly, work with other Finalists, and get a taste of New York City.

The Sunday, February 22, performance is open to the public.

Tickets can be purchased beginning 60 days prior to the performance through the Carnegie Hall box office.

The Honors Performance Series was created to showcase accomplished individual high school performers on an international level by allowing them to study under master conductors and perform in the celebrated venue, Carnegie Hall. Each year, the Series selects approximately 500 Finalists for the High School Honors Performance Series. The Honors Performance Series is proudly presented by WorldStrides, the nation’s leading educational travel organization. Learn more by visiting www.honorsperformance.org and www.worldstrides.com.

Free Metrolink to Auto Club 400

ace fans can take Metrolink for free to the Auto Club Speedway’s Auto Club 400 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race on March 22, 2015.

The free train ride will be offered to a limited number of race fans with the support of Clean Transportation Funding from the Mobile Source Air Pollution Reduction Review Committee (MSRC). After the limited number of free tickets are depleted, race fans will once again be able to purchase the discounted $19 round trip train tickets.

Riders, however, must sign up in advance at www.autoclubspeedway.com/metrolink.\ Like last year, Metrolink will operate three trains originating from Oxnard, Lancaster and Oceanside with limited stops in between for faster service. Train routes and stops include: Route 1: Oxnard to ACS Oxnard Moorpark Chatsworth Van Nuys Covina Montclair Rancho Cucamonga Auto Club Speedway Route 2: Lancaster to ACS Lancaster Santa Clarita Sylmar/San Fernando Downtown Burbank L.A. Union Station Auto Club Speedway Route 3: Oceanside to ACS Oceanside San Clemente Irvine Orange Riverside-La Sierra San Bernardino Auto Club Speedway Metrolink’s Speedway trains stop at a specially constructed station just off the back straight-away at the race track. From there, passengers will board a free tram that takes them to the entrance gates.

Trains depart Auto Club Speedway one hour after the end of the race, or checkered flag.

The Auto Club Speedway Metrolink Train Service is a joint demonstration project made possible in part by Clean Transportation Funding from the Mobile Source Air Pollution Reduction Review Committee (MSRC). The primary focus of the Mobile Source Air Pol-

lution Reduction Review Committee (MSRC) is to reduce air pollution from mobile sources. The partnership between the MSRC, Metrolink and the Auto Club 400 does exactly that. This effort helps advance the MSRC’s mission to reduce harmful emissions from mobile sources and provides a stress-free option for race fans to get to the California freeway by avoiding traffic delays.

Metrolink riders can bring food and non-alcoholic beverages on board the train. Items are not permitted to be stored at the Speedway train station; however fans may utilize lightweight backpacks and soft side bags/coolers, no larger than 6x6x12 inches, that may contain race weekend essentials. For a complete list of approved carry-in items, please visit www.autoclubspeedway.com.

The Metrolink trains to Auto Club Speedway are special trains; regular Metrolink tickets and passes are not valid. The Auto Club Speedway train tickets are distributed only by Auto Club Speedway and are mailed out prior to the race. To purchase race and train tickets or for information on the Auto Club Speedway train schedule, call Auto Club Speedway at (800) 944RACE (7223), log on to www.autoclubspeedway.com or visit the Auto Club Speedway Ticket Office.

These scholarships will help smooth the transition from community college to a four-year institution, and being a scholarship awardee will help the student transfer with greater self-confidence.

“It is always heartwarming to hear what a difference the on-campus jobs make for our students,” said Dr. Cheryl Marshall, president of CHC. “It allows students to spend more time on campus and focus on their studies, leading to higher success rates. We appreciate San Manuel’s contribution and their dedication to education.”

Many of the students hired work in the Tutoring Center, helping other students. This results in a wider impact of the grant--helping hundreds of students a semester.

Area youth learn sports science of Anaheim Ducks

Retired Ducks right wing George Parros taught members of the Boys & Girls Clubs the science and math behind hockey during Time Warner Cable’s STEM in Sports event at the Honda Center in Anaheim on Jan. 13.

A

By Yazmin Alvarez

group of children from the Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater RedlandsRiverside and Boys and Girls Club of Garden Grove recently learned a little sports science from the professionals, the Anaheim Ducks.

The Ducks hosted about 100 youth from the clubs as part of Time Warner Cable’s STEM in Sports program, which aims to show how science, technology, engineering and math play roles in various sports.

As part of the program, children received a behind-the-scenes tour of the Honda Center’s ice rink and where the Ducks practice and also learned the mechanics of hockey, including how to properly make a wrist shot, shoot angles and about reaction times.

On hand to demonstrate were former Ducks right wing George Parros and Ducks TV analyst Brian Hayward.

Parros, who retired last year after nine seasons in the NHL, demon-

strated shots into a net while Hayward, a former NHL goaltender, explained the STEM principles and its applications to the sport.

For Parros, the technology behind hockey is “the fun part,” he said in a news release.

“Technology is certainly influential. You see guys who played in the sport back in the day using wooden sticks that weighed 50 pounds ... guys nowadays use such lighter composite materials.

They’re shooting the puck way faster skating, much faster, and that equals faster force on the ice,” he said in the news release.

Hayward offered up examples of how goaltenders would also play using different styles but now mostly rely on using geometry for the sport.

“All of it is technique, which is science,” he said.

After the lessons, children were given the opportunity to put the science learned to work.

More than a dozen members from the Redlands-area clubs showed off their skills by shooting rubber balls, foam pucks and rub-

ber pucks into nets. Reaction times were tested by dropping a ruler and recording the time it took to be caught.

After practicing their new skills, children headed to the ice with Honda Center Operations Manager Joe Barrett, who taught a cool lesson on how the arena stays chilled for the games.

Hayward said he hopes the STEM principles in hockey “turn the light bulb on when they’re sitting in class.” The Ducks event was the first hockey event held nationwide by Time Warner Cable for STEM in Sports. STEM in Sports is part of Time Warner Cable’s Connect A Million Minds campaign that inspires kids to learn about science, technology, engineering and math through the sports they love.

Colton Loses Original War Bride, "La Italiana"

Recent photo of Angelina Adame.

By Jodi Kodesh

er story is sewn together, like that of a European romance, having started in Italy, and set thereafter, in Colton.

On Saturday, January 17, Angelina Adame, 97, passed away peacefully, in her home, on 9th Street -- where she had lived nearly all of her life, after coming to America in the mid-1900's.

Her arrival in the States made headlines, nationally, as she was one of the original World War II brides.

This is her story.

In 1944, a young John Adame, of Colton, enlisted in the Army.

World War II took him to Italy.

COURTESY PHOTO

One afternoon, John entered a small tailor shop, to have stripes sewn onto his uniform. There, a young Angelina Esposito, was a seamstress.

Angelina mentioned to a coworker (in Italian) that she thought the soldier was cute. She was unaware that John's assignment during the war, was as a translator for the American Army. He overheard her conversation, and was fluent in Italian! The rest, is history, filled with ups, downs, children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and a life-long stay in Colton.

Because of war circumstances, and unprecedented marriage laws, John had to petition the President of the United States to marry Angelina. Upon approval, they were married in a lavish ceremony by the Bishop of Italy himself. Nearly

John and Angelina's wedding, performed by the Bishop of Italy in 1944. Most of the people in the photo were townspeople of Madeloni, Italy, that showed up to watch the unprecedented marriage,

everyone in her small hometown of Madeloni, Italy, showed up to witness the special union, and partake in the huge celebration that followed.

When Angelina arrived on a ship to the United States, she (along with a handful of other war brides) were welcomed with a parade in New York. The arrival of the war brides made news headlines.

John and Angelina Adame moved to Colton, where they would start a family, eventually, welcoming six children, five girls and one boy.

"When she came to Colton, she had to leave her entire family, grandmother, mother and brothers behind. She followed her heart." explained their daughter, Carla Botello. "My mom didn't speak English. It was a challenge, but she learned two new languages, English and Spanish."

She was a talented seamstress, and continued her skill, out of her small home. She was known to many across the city, as "La Italiana" (The Italian), popular for her lavish gowns, custom wedding dresses and even creative Halloween costumes.

"People knew her, for the amazing dresses she would make, all without a pattern," said her daughter, Yolanda Nichy. (Each of her children attended Colton High School.) "You could draw a dress, or show her a picture, and she would make it, perfectly. She made all of our prom dresses in school. She was so talented."

John and Angelina remained married nearly 60 years, with all of their children nearby, until John lost a battle with cancer in 2003.

Angelina, strong in faith, visited

his grave, every week, since then.

"My mom visited him every week, religiously," said her only son, Tony Adame. "She was such a loving mom, filled with faith, and we know, she is now with my father."

Angelina and John Adame are survived by their 6 children, Carla Botello (married to Richard Botello), Olga Ponce (married to Richard Ponce), Tony Adame (married to Kelly Adame), Mikki Castell (married to Conrad Castell), Yolanda Nichy (married to Joe Nichy) and Kristina Bott (married to Jack Bott). Angelina and John leave behind 17 grandchildren and 22 great-grandchildren.

Angelina Adame will be laid to rest alongside her love, John Adame, Saturday, January 24, 9 am at Montecito Cemetary.

Laura Ling inspires and empowers audience of 1,000 women as the keynote speaker at the annual Women’s Conference

COURTESY PHOTO

Following her keynote speech at the Women’s Conference on January 16, Laura Ling interacted with guests and signed copies of her memoir, “Somewhere Inside: One Sister’s Captivity in North Korea and the Other’s Fight to Bring Her Home,” which she penned with her sister, Lisa.

A

merican journalist, Laura Ling, gave an empowering speech to 1,000 vibrant women from the Inland Empire and beyond at Loma Linda University Health’s 7th annual Women’s Con-

ference on Friday, Jan. 16 at the Ontario Convention Center.

In an interview prior to her keynote speech, Ling admitted, “It’s easy to put health and wellness secondary. The Women’s Conference] is a necessary and important event.”

A wife and mother of two, Ling stated, “It’s hard, but it’s important to make the time for you.”

No stranger to Loma Linda University Health, she added, “I’m in awe of the work Loma Linda does here and around the world. I’m proud and privileged to be a part of the event.”

During her speech, Ling recalled moments from when she was held captive in North Korea for 140 days in 2009. Ling didn’t ever imagine she would survive.

“My time in captivity was terrifying, but I found glimmers of humanity around me that gave me hope,” she said, something as simple as a butterfly outside or simple conversation she would engage in with a female guard. Ling stated that she had a lot of time to reflect on her life, and once freed, her experiences gave her the strength to follow her passion “to shed light on the issues in the world that need attention.”

In closing, Ling left the audience with an empowering message, “Cherish the freedoms you have and be a strong voice to those who need one.”

After receiving a standing ovation, Ling later signed copies of her memoir, “Somewhere Inside: One Sister’s Captivity in North Korea and the Other’s Fight to Bring Her Home,” which she penned with her sister, Lisa.

Also providing some words of wisdom to attendees was K-FROG Radio’s Heather Froglear, who hosted the event for the seventh consecutive year. She said, “Magic can happen when you get a group of passionate, inspiring women together.”

This sold out event themed “Ready. Set. Go Green. Think Lean.” was designed for women of all ages seeking to be more proactive about their health and overall wholeness. Throughout the day women were treated to free massages, beauty touch ups, health information and screenings, breakout sessions on important topics related to health, fitness and style, and an afternoon keynote speech from Chef Marla Cohen.

First time conference attendee, Courtney Haas of Redlands, Calif., experienced the day with a group of coworkers and said the event went above and beyond her expectations.

“Everything from the speakers, venue, meals, pampering room, health screenings, to the breakout sessions, the planning behind this event was phenomenal.” A writer

herself, Haas said she was able to relate to Ling’s way of thinking. “I think it was truly inspiring to hear her story and see how she has been

able to continue working and have a family even after facing death on a daily basis during her time as a prisoner in North Korea.”

o help reduce the number of cars on campus and increase off-campus service opportunities, Loma Linda University Health has joined several other campuses throughout the Inland area in Zipcar’s car-sharing service.

LLUH launched the partnership with Zipcar earlier this month to offer students, staff, faculty members and members of the community that do not have their own means of transportation, a way to get off campus and around town without the worry of car ownership, explained Richard H. Hart, MD, DrPH, Loma Linda University Health president.

“Loma Linda is pleased to partner with Zipcar to help reduce the number of cars on campus by giving students, staff, patients, and community members mobility

ship,” Hart said in a news release.

“Zipcar is becoming a popular option on campuses across the country. We believe this resource will help us continue to make our campus a more pedestrian and bike friendly place; it fits well with our culture of wholeness. Some students and others who don’t own cars will no longer need to buy a car when they move to Loma Linda.”

Arroyo Valley girls hoops continues dominance

Arroyo Valley's Janelle Guthrie (#3) totaled 8 points in the win.

he Arroyo Valley girls’ basketball team hasn’t let the national spotlight deter it from its winning ways.

A week after a controversial 161-2 win over Bloomington got their Head Coach Michael Anderson suspended, the Lady Hawks earned another decisive win, this time a 78-28 road victory over San Gorgonio during San Andreas League action on Friday, January 16.

With a camera crew from Los Angeles TV station KNBC in attendance, it didn’t take long for Arroyo Valley (16-1, 2-0 SAL) to take control. The team’s fullpress defense forced errant passes from San Gorgonio (7-9, 1-1), helping generate a 26-9 lead after the first quarter and 47-16 advantage by halftime.

Senior Tamera Trigg paced the Lady Hawks with a game-high 30 points while freshman Antania Watkins scored 22.

The game plan hasn’t changed with Anderson’s 19-year old son coaching the team, the starters remained in the game and pushed the full-court press through three quarters and led to 42 turnovers for San G. Sisters Oceanana and Tatiana Russell along with Jessica Sayegh combined to score 26 points of San G’s points.

The rout of Bloomington on January 5 had critics complaining that Anderson ran up the score in an unsportsmanlike fashion as Arroyo Valley led 104-0 at halftime and the starters remained in the game into the third.

Arroyo Valley defeated Indian Springs 80-19 earlier in the week and has won seven other games this year by at least 50 points.

The Lady Hawks play two home games this week. They match up with San Bernardino for the MLK “I Have A Dream” Classic before facing off with Rialto.

History of Martin Luther King, Jr.

M

artin Luther King, Jr 1 5 , (January 1929-April 4, 1968) was born Michael Luther King, Jr., but later had his name changed to Martin. His grandfather began the family's Jong tenure as pastors of the Ebenezer Baptist Church in At lanta, serving from 1914 to 193l ; his father has served from then until the present, and from 1960 until his death Martin Luther acted as co-pastor. Martin Luther at tended segregated public schools in Georgia, graduating from high school at the age of fifteen; he re ceived the B. A. degree in 1948 from Morehouse College, a distin guished Negro* institution of At lanta from which both his father and grandfather had graduated.

After three years of theological study at Crozer Theological Sem inary in Pennsylvania where he was elected president of a predom inantly white senior class, he was awarded the B.D. in 1951. With a fellowship won at Crozer, he enrolled in graduate studies at Boston University, completing his residence for the doctorate in 1953 and receiving the degree in 1955.

In Boston he met and married

Coretta Scott, a young woman of uncommon intellectual and artistic attainments. Two sons and two daughters were born into the family.

In 1954, Martin Luther King be came pastor of the Dexter Avenue Baptist Church in Montgomery, Alabama. Always a strong worker for civil rights for members of his race, King was, by this time, a member of the executive commit tee of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored Peo ple, the leading organization of its kind in the nation. He was ready, then, early in December, 1955, to accept the leadership of the first great Negro nonviolent demon stration of contemporary times in the. United States, the bus boycott described by Gunnar Jahn in his presentation speech in honor of the laureate. The boycott lasted 382 days. On December 21, 1956, after the Supreme Court of the United States had declared unconstitu tional the laws requiring segrega tion on buses, Negroes and whites rode the buses as equals. During these days of boycott, King was arrested, his home was bombed, he was subjected to personal abuse,

but at the same time he emerged as a Negro leader of the first rank.

In 1957 he was elected president of the Southern Christian Leader ship Conference, an organization formed to provide new leadership for the now burgeoning civil rights movement. The ideals for this organization he took from Christianity; its operational techniques from Ghandi. In the eleven-year period between 1951 and 1968, King traveled over six million miles and spoke over twenty-five hundred times, appearing wherever there was injustice, protest, and action; and meanwhile he wrote five books as well as numerous arti cles. In these years, he led a massive protest in Birmingham, Alabama, that caught the attention of the entire world, providing what he called a coalition of conscience. and inspiring his "Letter from a Birmingham Jail" , a manifesto of the Negro revolution; he planned the drives in Alabama for the registration of Negroes as voters: he directed the peaceful march on Washington, D.C., of 250,000 peo ple to whom he delivered his ad dress, "l Have a Dream" , he conferred with President John F. Kennedy and campaigned for President Lyndon B. Johnson; he was arrested upwards of twenty times and assaulted at least four times; he was awarded five hon orary degrees; was named Man of the Year by Time magazine in 1963; and became not only the symbolic leader or' American blacks but also a work!figure.

At the age of thirty-five, Martin Luther King, Jr., was the youngest man to have received the Nobel Peace Prize. When notified of his selection, he announced that he would turn over the prize money of $54,123 to the furtherance of the civil rights movement.

On the evening of April 4, 1968, while standing on the balcony of his motel room in Memphis, Ten nessee, where he was to lead a protest march in sympathy with striking garbage workers of that city, he was assassinated

Support IE Local: Jose Antonio Cordova Provides Experience and Good Service to Inland Empire’s Suit Wearing Clientele the kind of service you get from a real tailor,” he said. “I highly recommend Cordova. He offers great prices and great service.”

Cordova believes the bankruptcy situation the city faces should not be an excuse for the lack of attention towards the business sector. In fact, he deems any effort to support small business as a step towards progress.

“It’s what us small business owners need,” Cordova said. “I believe their needs to be more of a focus on highlighting business contributions to the local economy, while perhaps also providing more services to enhance our advertising.”

Jose Antonio Cordova and his collection of suits.

By Anthony Victoria

ose Antonio Cordova— whose tailor shop is located at 161 N. E St. near San Manuel Stadium in the city of San Bernardino— has devoted nearly thirty years of his suit tailoring service ensuring judges, lawyers, law enforcement and politicians in the Inland Empire appear at their best while on the job.

Whether you need the right size shirt, slacks, a two-piece suit, or perhaps some nice shiny shoes, the 59-year-old Cordova and his wife have worked almost daily to guarantee their customers great service at reasonable prices.

However, Cordova said he believes his trade is a dying art—one that has been difficult to teach to the younger generation.

“The art seems to be completely disappearing,” said Cordova. “It would be great for youth to learn this trade because they can earn up to $20 an hour. Unfortunately, the once government backed programs that allowed us to train

youth are no longer around.”

Originally from Michoacán, Mexico, Jose Antonio began delving his hand into tailoring at the tender age of eleven. He worked at his uncle’s tailor shop where he was able to learn the ins and outs of measuring, sewing, and ironing suits.

“The practice of tailoring in Mexico is much different,” said Cordova. “For example, over there you cut sleeves from the top and here in the United States we do it from the bottom. That’s the most basic example I can provide.”

Cordova in his younger years worked for Hartmarx Specialty Stores Inc. and their subsidiary firm Silverwoods. His excellent craftsmanship resulted in him being awarded the Customer Service Award in 1987 and a Golden Scissors Award for outstanding tailoring in 1991. It was around this time period that he established Cordova’s Tailor Shop as one of San Bernardino’s premier small businesses.

“I’ve always appreciated my

clientele here in San Bernardino,” Cordova said. “And I assume that they appreciate my services.”

Several reviews on the Google and Yelp online small business directories indicate that Cordova’s suit tailoring demonstrates great professionalism and accuracy.

“The past few years I had to relocate from Hollywood, New York, to Vegas! In each one of these cities I have a tailor that I visit for alterations every time I make a purchase. It usually came out perfect the second time, which was a little annoying,” said San Bernardino resident David Leal.

“When I relocated back in March I needed a new tailor; this is where I went. What an Awesome job!

Cordova is a master! He got all my measurements down the first time!

I totally trust him with all the couture garments I bring in!”

Richard Tejada, a legislative aide to San Bernardino City Mayor Carey Davis, said he highly recommends Cordova’s to any of his professional colleagues.

“This guy is great. Nothing beats
