CJUSD helping families stay warm, fed during holidays

his holiday season the Colton Joint Unified School District is helping students and their families stay warm and fed. Since early November the district has been taking in jackets, clothing, toys, and food items from community members to donate to students in need. Officials launched the ‘stuff the bus’ campaign in hopes of enticing residents to donate. The ‘stuff the bus’ idea came from District Director Transportation Erick Richardson, who in October also launched the ‘kindness bus’ to bring positivity to schools and neighborhoods. “Our goal is to help families in need and to enjoy the holiday season” Richardson said. On Thursday, the Girl Scouts of San Gorgonio dropped of several jackets to the Hermosa Center. According to Girl Scout volCJUSD cont. on next page

ontinued collaboration between the Tzu-Chi Foundation and the San Bernardino City Unified School District brought a new mobile food pantry to help the Inland region’s low income residents. On Nov. 20 individuals who signed up for the program received a food box from the health nonprofit filled with fresh food items, such as apples, carrots, and bananas. This time around the distribution will be arranged more like a market style, people can choose and pick what they need. The event will be held on December 18 from 9am to 11am at Indian Springs High School. It will be First-Come, FirstServed and no registration needed. But recipients have to bring in their own shopping bags. The quantity Tzu Chi is preparing is the same as last time. About 500 families will be served, according to Associate Director Andrew Lin. “Tzu-Chi is goodness and compassion personified,” believes Dr. Lily Rivera. “It’s such an honor to work with people that put aside resentment and greed, put aside the fact that people take advantage of them, for their service.” The foundation in two decades has provided free health services to 20,000 people in the San Bernardino community. In April, they provided medical attention to 246 residents during a health fair at Lytle Creek Elementary School. Services provided at the clinic included: dental services, eye examinations, acupunctures, and examinations that help diagnose for serious diseases and ailments such as diabetes or cholesterol.

olton residents launched their countdown to Christmas by hosting its annual tree lighting ceremony on Thursday. Aside from the ceremonious lighting of City Hall, there were other events for Colton’s families to enjoy. Children sat on Santa Claus’ lap, while others watched holiday movies. Food and refreshments were also available for the community during the block party event on La Cadena drive. Mayor Richard De La Rosa confirmed that the event would-

n’t have been possible without the collaboration of city departments and business owners. City employees Carlos Alba and Roy Hutchins were instrumental in setting up the lights and infrastructure for the ceremony, the Chamber of Commerce provided candy and drinks, and local bakery Mrs. Redd’s Pie Company donated 150 pies for the event. “Let’s share with each other the spirit of the holidays,” De La Rosa said to 200 or so people in attendance. “On behalf of the city, we wish you a Merry Christmas.” Katherine Tabera, 73, said she believes this year’s event was

the most attended and hails the city for putting it on every year. “This city thinks of everyone,” she said. “And that’s nice. I love this event. It’s very a fun and organized event. It’s great for the children.” For Chris Gutierrez, the tree lighting symbolizes the beginning of the holiday season. He said he’s looking forward to spending time with friends and family. “This is all fun,” he said. “The best part of this season is being with family and going to Disneyland for New Years.” “And the food,” his cousin Anthony Gutierrez added. “I love me some prime rib.”

When three Girl Scouts--Emma Romo, Olivia Guevara, and Isabel Caldera--were asked why they chose to help, they replied: "Because it makes us happy." In addition to the ‘stuff the bus’ campaign, the school district has also helped residents with food and clothing through their Transitional Opportunity Program (TOP) closet program and food pantry. District Community Liasons Esperanza Mora and Kathleen Moreno believe the reward in providing these services is seeing the joy families have in receiving

Here’s how you can help: Bring a new, unwrapped toy or new jacket (sizes 5 to 3 XL – larger teen sized hoodies are especially needed), or non-perishable food item to Colton Joint Unified School sites before 8 AM Monday, December 5 OR you can bring items to the following locations: -December 10th – The bus will be at Fleming Park at La Cadena Avenue and F Street following the Colton Christmas Parade.

OPINION&LETTERS Page A4 • December 8, 2016 • Inland Empire Community Newspapers

By Congressman Pete Aguilar

“If you can’t fly, run; if you can’t run, walk; if you can’t walk, crawl; but by all means keep moving.”

If you can’t fly, run; if you can’t run, walk; if you can’t walk, crawl; but by all means keep moving.” I’ve reflected on this Martin Luther King, Jr. quote a lot over the past few weeks as the Latino and immigrant communities have come together to discuss what the future looks like for immigration reform and how we protect the diversity of our nation. We are a nation of immigrants, after all. That fact is embedded in our founding—it is the crux of America’s story. In the month that’s passed since the presidential election, we’ve seen an onslaught of hate crimes and what has become common-

place discrimination. While President-elect Trump’s message resonated with some who felt forgotten and sought a leader who would bring dramatic change to Washington, others clung to Mr. Trump’s racist and fear-mongering narrative. He called Mexicans criminals and rapists, he promised to strip Muslim Americans of their Constitutional rights, he bragged about sexually assaulting women, and he mocked disabled Americans. In spewing this hate, Mr. Trump normalized xenophobia, racism, misogyny and all forms of discrimination.

Given this fearful climate created by Mr. Trump, there is a lot of anxiety and uncertainty in our country. This is particularly true among the immigrant community, which was constantly attacked and villainized by Mr. Trump. While I cannot tell you what the Trump Administration will do in the months and years ahead, I can tell you what I will do: I will fight for you. I will not back down, nor will I compromise your futures and your freedom. I will work with our local, state and federal leaders to ensure that families are kept together and that immigrants always have a safe place in our community.

But I’m going to need your help. Going forward, one of our most important responsibilities is to our children, who are watching and listening. We cannot sink to the level that those who try to tear us down would like. As First Lady Michelle Obama said, “When they go low, we go high.” Our kids are watching us, and that has never been clearer than today. For their sake, we need to rise above.

Over fifty years ago, Dr. King told us we need to “keep moving.” And that is exactly what we’ll do.

A 13th Letter to America

The Presidential Election is finally over!

However, the demonstrations that are occurring shows how poorly a job our school systems and our news media is doing. Acceptance, after the people have spoken, has always been the norm, and should still be the norm.

Another norm, is respect for other people, their rights, and their property.

All that is violated when crowds take over streets and highways and start destroying government or personal property. That is criminal conduct punishable by law. Regarding the one-year anniversary of the San Bernardino terrorist attack, what has been done to try to prevent an attack like this from happening again? More areas have been designated as “gun-free” zones.

Our state Legislature passed and Gov. Jerry Brown signed into law a broad package of nearly a dozen gun control measures. In the recent election, the voters of California passed Proposition 63, which makes it even more difficult to purchase guns, ammo, and makes it against the law to even own or posses a magazine that is capable of holding more than 10 rounds of ammo.

I was saddened to hear about the passing of one of my childhood friends, Jack “Jacky” Brown. We first met in 1944 on the E Street barrio of Victorville. He was about 4 or 5 years old, I was 7 or

What do these actions accomplish to prevent another terrorist attack similar to what happened in San Bernardino last year? Sadly, they will have the opposite result of what they are trying to accomplish. When you look at all the locations where there have been massive killings by terrorists, they have all been in “gun-free” zones. Why? Because these cowards know that in “gun-free” zones there is a better chance of killing as many people as they want with very little chance of anybody having a gun to shoot back at them.

As far as the gun and ammo restrictive laws passed, the only people these laws will end up affecting are “law-abiding” citizens, making it harder for them to defend themselves and their families.

The cowards and criminals doing this type of shooting and killing are already breaking laws and won’t really care if they are breaking a few more. William Yahn, Colton

His dad, “Big Jack,” the town constable/sheriff, would drop him off at his nanny Manuela Vasquez’s home on E Street, a couple of houses down from Cancino Market, summer mornings around 9 a.m.

He would wave as I stood on the corner of Cottonwood and E streets. I would run to meet him. We played marble games. I taught him games like “Little and big ring” and other marble games. As adults, I will never forget his friendliness when he cut the ribbon at some of the Stater Bros. markets in the High Desert and San Bernardino. He always greeted me with “Hey, amigo” and gave me a hard bear hug.

When I wrote my books, I added a part about him, sent him the text for him to correct/edit, which he did. He sent me the three photos,

which are included as part of the text. When the books were published, I took him a copy to his new office at the old Norton Air Force Base.

I always called him “Jacky” — even as adults. I was somewhat jealous because during those young days he could hop on California Highway Patrol officer Buzz Banks’ motorcycle, whereas I couldn’t even get near it when it was parked in front of the old Sheriff’s Office on 7th Street, next to the Desert Maid Bakery.

I loved Jacky as my brother and will truly miss him. My deepest sympathies and prayers to his and the Stater Bros. family.

Words to Think About: The Wanna-be Historian

I

By G. W. Abersold Ph.D.

make the claim to be a wanna-be historian. I exercise this claim by studying and interpreting historical events. The Civil Rights movement began way back in the Civil War with the freedom of a large segment of our citizenry. The freedom of the slaves. A casual survey of history also gives a certainty about a civil right that goes back at least 2000 years.

S

As a therapist for over 65 years I have studied the need for it, the availability of it and the insistence for it. The absence of it is the cause for more mental and emotional disturbances than anything else. It is not a physical condition but a spiritual one. Hippocrates is considered the father of the medical system. But Jesus was the one that insisted in diagnosing the cause and the cure for emotional trauma. He described it as UNFORGIVENESS. His cure was simple, FORGIVENESS. There are two basic elements that are involved. It is an individual state and also an interpersonal relationship problem. Rene Descartes lived in the 1600’s, March 31, 1596-February 11, 1650 and his philosophy influenced Western medicine for several hundred years. It was and is known as the Cartesian philosophy of medicine. His view was simple and singular. He said there is no or little connection between the mind and the body of humans. For those hundreds of years medicine viewed any illness as a genetic breakdown. But in the 1930’s a Canadian

doctor, Hans Selye, MD, changed the Cartesian dominance forever. He proved that the mind did affect the body. As an Endocrinologist, he revealed that anxiety/ worry, THE MIND, actually was the cause for ulcers, THE BODY. It was a slow process until the 1950’s when men like Dr. Norman Cousins, Dr. Bernie Siegal, Dr. Herbert Benson, plus many others joined the fray. The logic and the evidence began to change the Cartesian attitudes among most doctors. WHICH BRINGS ME TO MY BASIC VIEWPOINT. I PLACE UNFORGIVENESS ALONGSIDE OF ANXIETY AND WORRY AS A BASIC CAUSE FOR MANY ILLNESSES. Of course there are those medical conditions that are genetic weaknesses and birth defects, environmental and behavioral habits that significantly cause serious illnesses. There is another cause that is equally disruptive. Between two persons or between families, feuds have lasted for centuries. The problems are caused by the same attitude. UNFORGIVENESS. It is a disease that is contagious. The only cure is FORGIVENESS. Several years ago a research

company in Dallas, Texas was contacted by a multi-millionaire to research a certain problem. He wanted to know if there was a common denominator in a thousand emotionally ill patients. They were paid $25,000 for their decision. After several months of research, they reached a consensus. The most common denominator was RESENTMENT and UNFORGIVENESS. Mahatma Gandhi states, “The weak can never forgive. FORGIVENESS is the attribute of the strong. Forgive those who have hurt you. Believe it or not, Mark Twain, the noted comedic author and performer said, “Forgiveness is the fragrance that violets shed on the heel that has crushed them.” Augustine, the founder of many of the beliefs of the Catholic Church said, “FORGIVENESS is the remission of sins. For it is by this that what has been lost, and was found is saved from being lost again.” Henry Ward Beecher, one of the greatest preachers of all time is recorded as saying, “God pardons like a mother, who kisses the offence into everlasting forgiveness.” I’ve been interested in what the

Bible and Qur’an have to say about FORGIVENESS. My Bible Concordance has 53 references about FORGIVENESS; I’ve counted at least 30 references in my copy of the Qur’an. One of the Islamic authorities has said, “One of the moral traits recommended in the Qur’an is FORGIVENESS.” Mohammed the Prophet says in the Qur’an, “Allah is ever forgiving, most merciful.” Pope Francis I is emphatic. “The world needs FORGIVENESS.” Martin Luther, the prime motivation of the Protestant Reformation stated, “FORGIVENESS is God’s command.” The question I have, where is Luther’s reference? I suggest the Lord’s Prayer in Matthew 6:12, in the prayer Jesus taught His disciples to pray. “Father, forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those that trespass against us.” Being forgiven by God demands that we forgive. Jesus also told His disciples in Matthew 18:22 to forgive 70 times 7 equals 490. No one can afford to ignore the spiritual and physical benefits of FORGIVENESS. Amen. Selah. So be it.

Now is the time to donate to support scholarships, possibly reduce your taxable income

D

id you know that Tax Day will be on April 18 in 2017? Well, now you do, and that may have you thinking about how you can reduce your 2016 taxable income. A good way to do that is through charitable donations to recognized nonprofits, including the San Bernardino City Unified School District’s (SBCUSD) many scholarship funds. The non-profit San Bernardino Community Scholarship Association was founded in 1957 and works closely with SBCUSD to provide more than $250,000 to approximately 300 graduating seniors every year. The Scholarship Association is not just a single scholarship fund. It coordinates and manages the accounts of more than 80 different scholarships from donors ranging from Rotary International to individual community members. Each scholarship has its own criteria so that donors can support the students and career paths of

their choice. For example, the Obershaw Educator/Language Scholarship provides scholarships to students from any SBCUSD high school who have a 3.0 or higher G.P.A. and want to become k–12 teachers, especially those who wish to become language teachers. The Borsuk Family Scholarship rewards one non-athlete scholar from San Bernardino High School each year with a college scholarship. The SBCUSD Class of 2016 earned more than $6.5 million in college scholarships. While $624,000 of that was in the form of military academy appointments and G.I. Bills, a substantial portion was from scholarships awarded through the San Bernardino Community Scholarship Association and the Making Hope Happen Foundation. Students at every SBCUSD high school earned scholarships, including 443 at Cajon High School, 392 at Arroyo Valley High School, 182 at San Gor-

gonio High School, and all 54 graduates from Middle College High School. A small number of scholarships support the adult and returning students at the Inland Career Education Center (formerly the San Bernardino Adult School). In 2016, 15 ICEC students earned more than $19,000 in scholarships to advance to higher education. Scholarships provided through the Making Hope Happen Foundation not only equip SBCUSD graduates with money for the first two years of college, but also connect recipients with a mentor to help them navigate the higher education experience. Many local students will be the first in their families to attend college and therefore may not have a personal network that includes someone who has been there and done that to guide them. Making Hope Happen Foundation Scholarships add this extra layer of support to help students succeed.

Whether supporting the San Bernardino Community Scholarship Association or the Making Hope Happen Foundation, donating to a good cause can also be a great way to give back to your community, to demonstrate gratitude for the good things happening in your life, and to make your community a better place for everyone. For many SBCUSD students, the scholarships they receive as a result of community donations are the difference between being able to attend college and not being able to afford it. Whatever your reason for donating, always make sure the organization you give to is a legitimate, charitable organization that is a recognized nonprofit by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Also, remember that charitable donations do not reduce your taxes by $1 for every $1 you donate. Actual tax savings will depend on several factors. Your tax advisor can explain the

specific advantages a charitable gift can offer you. However, the personal reward of giving goes far beyond any tax advantages. Giving simply makes you feel good. Businesses and community members are invited to create their own scholarship with their own unique criteria or donate to an existing scholarship that reflects their values and beliefs. To find out how to establish a new scholarship or to identify a scholarship you wish to donate to, contact Susan Zavala, SBCUSD Communications/Community Relations and Scholarship Association secretary, at (909) 3811250 or susan.zavala@sbcusd.com. To donate to the Making Hope Happen Foundation and its scholarship program, contact the Community Engagement Office at (909) 381-1294 or email Executive Director Ginger Ontiveros directly at ginger.ontiveros@sbcusd.com.

San Manuel Band of Mission Indians shines light on lives lost Dec. 2, 2015

V

By Mj Duncan

ictims of the Dec. 2 terrorist attack were remembered and honored a year later with a memorial bike ride, garden dedication, Night of Remembrance and the brilliant illumination of the iconic Arrowhead in the foothills of the San Bernardino Mountains courtesy of the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians. It continues to be lit for 14 consecutive nights in memory of each life lost, and serves as a symbol of solidarity and hope for this community. “Even as we struggle to make sense of those events from a year ago, we remain strong in our commitment to the values that make us a strong community,” said Lynn Valbuena, Chairwoman of the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians. “We are proud to join with the San Bernardino and our community partners to shine a new light in memory of those we lost.” The Arrowhead, which sits di-

The San Manuel Band of Mission Indians lit the iconic Arrowhead on the anniversary of the Dec. 2 terrorist attack, and continues to light it for 14 consecutive nights in memory of each life that was lost that fateful day until Dec. 15. It can be seen from anywhere in the cities of San Bernardino and Highland between 5:30 – 10 p.m. rectly above the artesian hot springs within the historic Arrowhead Springs Hotel recently acquired by the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians, can be seen from anywhere in the cities

of San Bernardino and Highland when lit. Dan Johnson of San Bernardino went to Wildwood Park for a closer look on the anniversary of the attack and first night of illumination.

“I knew one of the victims and a year later it’s still hard to cope with,” he said. “I wanted to see this tribute and I think it speaks volumes that San Manuel did this for our community, it shows

they’re really vested in us.” The Arrowhead, which has never before been illuminated, will be lit until Dec. 15 from 5:30 – 10 p.m. with over a dozen 120,000-lumen arc lights. One of the most famous landmarks in the Inland Empire, for centuries the Arrowhead was a symbol of the San Bernardino Valley to the Native Americans of the region, and then to the pioneers and settlers that followed. It has been named a California Historical Monument (#977) and is the namesake for the city of Lake Arrowhead and logo for San Bernardino County. The Arrowhead is 1,375 feet in length and 449 feet in width. With an almost perfect outline, it may appear to be man-made or artificial, however, the phenomenon is natural. The face of the Arrowhead consists of light quartz, supporting a growth of short white sage. This lighter vegetation shows in sharp contrast to the surrounding chaparral and greasewood.

Rep. Aguilar said, “Access to safe drinking water is a basic and

The federal funds will go toward an existing project to invest in Rialto’s water infrastructure and improve the drinking water system. Infrastructure investments include the installation of a Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system. This system will help monitor and manage the water treatment and distribution system, and takes additional steps to maintain clean and safe drinking water for Rialto residents. The City of Rialto is contributing $1,495,061, or 83.7 percent of the $1,786,061 total project cost.

necessary responsibility that we have to uphold for the safety of our residents. I was happy to support this initiative and I’m glad to have partners like Mayor Robertson and the City of Rialto looking out for our community members to make sure every family has the support they need from their leaders to live healthy and safe lives.”

'Prevailer' Swann-Paez, first responders focus of new documentary

A

san Bernardino shooting ‘prevailer’ Julie swann-Paez. . By Anthony Victoria

documentary film--highlighting the story of ‘prevailer’ Julie Swann-Paez and first responder heroics during the Dec. 2 terrorist attack--debuted during a Q & A session at the Loma Linda University Church Monday.

The 45-minute film, produced by Loma Linda University Advancement Films, goes in depth into the experiences faced by law enforcement during the attack that killed 14 people and severely injured 22 others at the Inland Regional Center last year. Swann-Paez tells her story of overcoming physical and mental pain.

“I try not to let this define me. I don’t want to be a victim or a survivor,” Swann-Paez responded to Senior Pastor Randy Roberts’ question on how the attack has changed her life. “I’m a prevailer. You can prevail over evil or prevail over obstacles.” Paez, who works as an environmental specialist for San

Bernardino County, was shot multiple times in her pelvis--causing her to lose a lot of blood. According to Loma Linda Medical Center officials featured in the film, 35 medical professionals attended to her that day and saved SwannPaez’s life by conducting multiple blood transfusions. Advancement Films’ documentary team followed Swann-Paez’s recovery for several months--providing in-depth coverage of her surgeries and family support. As she explains in the film, Swann-Paez has adopted a strategy of self-care to overcome the adversity of recovering from the attack that took the lives of her colleagues. She’s launched a project that focuses on spreading positivity across the city by attaching “stars of hope” around her neighborhood. The mother of three also likes to take walks to ease her mind. “I hope when people pass by they see [the stars],” she said of the art project. “I hope it makes them think or gives them happy thoughts--things we take for granted, other people are praying for.” The crowd in attendance also got a first look at the emotions first responders were undergoing during and after the incident. Many including San Bernardino Police Lt. Mike Madden--the first officer on

scene at the Inland Regional Center--spoke about the worries and fears they confronted and overcame. “As a Lieutenant, I primarily perform administrative functions for the police department, so I wasn’t wearing a vest [going into the Inland Regional Center],” said Madden. “The first thing I did was apologize to my wife and kids when I got home. Apologized?? Why. Needs explaining I just apologized to them. We did a little crying, and decompressed a little bit.” Psychologists were sent in to consult with first responders in the aftermath of the attacks to help officers and paramedics deal with any trauma or stress they were experiencing. “It’s getting people in that mind frame that recovery is a process,” explained County Behavioral Health Director Veronica Kelley. “There is no time frame for that. It takes however long it takes. The first thing is to be patient with yourself and have peer support.” Swann-Paez told the audience that she believes her future is bright. “I will be able to do the things I love,” she said. “It will be OK. I don’t want to ask for too much or take things for granted.” The film will be aired at 7 p.m. Dec. 14, on the PBS affiliate KVCR, Channel 24.

Reporter Joe Ortiz covered biblical topics to 1960's riots; award-winning publicist dies at 76

By Harvey M. Kahn

he works of Joe Ortiz will continue to live long after his recent death. Ortiz spent most of his 76 years promoting and assisting others. As a news reporter he had the ability to readily detail everything from billion dollar financial reports to the pain of poverty. His broad interests enabled him to report on topics like the 1960's Los Angeles riots and Boy Scouts of America. His public relations clients covered the gamut from beer, whiskey, to ministries. Ortiz was born in Indio and went to Coachella Valley High School. He died on Nov. 19 at Loma Linda University Medical Center. He spent most of his adult life working for major radio and television station affiliates in Los Angeles, but lived the last ten

years in Redlands with his wife, Martha. At the time of his death, he was working on his fourth book and was serving as president of the Tom Flores Fan Club, whose goal is to get the former Oakland Raiders coach and long time Ortiz friend, into the NFL Hall of Fame. It was Ortiz who was responsible for Flores receiving the 2011 Roberto Clemente Award. Tributes to Ortiz came from many whose careers he helped launch. He is credited with giving early radio air play to many East LA music groups like Tierra and El Chicano. Ortiz introduced a new generation to the sounds of Zoot-Suit era singer/songwriter Lalo Guerrero and was the first to provide radio exposure to Guerrero's son, Mark. Ortiz lived just long enough to see the recent bronze statue of Lalo Guerrero placed in downtown Cathedral City. In part, from inspiration provided by Ortiz, Mark Guerrero will be airing a musical tribute to his father's massive song list during the month of December on the Chicano Radio Network. Ortiz provided the voice-over work for Guerrero's show entitled, "Chicano Music Chronicles." Mark Guerrero wrote on his facebook page that he met Ortiz in 1972 when he was a guest on his show on KLOS radio. Guerrero recalled Ortiz doing volunteer work to promote the Chicano culture along with being a biblical scholar who was politically aware. "In recent years he was the announcer for my radio show. Joe Ortiz was a good and giving man. RIP." In between chairing a number of state committees, serving college school boards, and arranging Hollywood Walk of Fame celebrations, Ortiz worked in a number of capacities for Catholic Charities of San Bernardino. He later became the volunteer manager of the agency's emergency homeless shelter. Bishop Gerald Barnes of the San Bernardino Diocese appointed him to its telecommunications board. In his bio, Ortiz said his big break came in the early 1970's when noted filmmaker Mocte-

In a short span, Ortiz became the station's chief reporter. From 1975-1984 he was a minister who preached around the country and operated his own

evangelical broadcasting ministry networks. During that time he never entirely gave up his job as a public relations specialist. A private memorial for Ortiz will take place on Dec. 10.
