hree San Bernardino City Schools started the 2019– 2020 school year with new principals and two District departments welcomed new directors. Students at Highland-Pacific, Lankershim, and North Verdemont Elementary Schools met their new leaders in August, while children at E. Neal Roberts Elementary are getting to know their principal a little better after Yosan Hailemariam took the helm just before the last school year ended. Lauryn Wild is principal of Highland-Pacific Elementary. M. Evette Peters, former principal of Highland-Pacific Elementary, is now the principal of Lankershim Elementary. Kimberly Robel, previously a vice principal at Cajon High, is looking forward to leading North Verdemont Elementary, a tightknit school where staff and students are like family. “I’m so excited to return to the closeness of an elementary school,” Robel said. “I’m looking Comics being fun while exposing the culture of superheroes to everyone.

Exposure is what this event aimed for; former Mayor Judith Valles making an appearance validated the popularity behind the event.

The celebration will also kick off CSUSB’s month-long (Sept. 15 – Oct. 15) observance of National Hispanic Heritage Month, honoring the contributions of American citizens whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, Central America and South America. The university will hold events throughout the month honoring the contributions of CSUSB Hispanic students, alumni, faculty and staff as well as discussions of current events and issues affecting the Hispanic community. The observation started in 1968 as Hispanic Heritage Week under President Lyndon Johnson and was expanded by President Ronald Reagan in 1988 to cover a 30-day period starting on September 15 and ending on October 15. It was enacted into law on August 17, 1988, on the approval of Public Law 100-402. The Mexican Independence Day features the commemoration of the “Cry of Dolores” when in 1810 in the Mexican village of Dolores, the parish priest, Father Miguel Hidalgo, rang his church bell and yelled his cry for freedom from Spanish tyranny in what launched the war for Mexican Independence. The “Cry of Dolores” is annually held on the evening of Sept. 15, the day before Mexican Independence Day, with the president of Mexico at about 11 p.m. ringing the bell of the National Palace in Mexico City. The president then repeats a cry of patriotism, “El Grito,” with the names of the important heroes of the Mexican War of Independence who were there on that very

historical moment and ends with the threefold shout of ¡Viva México! from the balcony of the palace to the assembled crowd in the Plaza de la Constitución, or Zócalo, one of the largest public plazas in the world. The Mexican Consulate will reenact the ceremony at CSUSB by ringing a bell and giving the traditional words joining commemorations and re-enactments taking place in cities and towns, in plazas or zócalos all over Mexico, and in Mexican embassies, consulates, and by Mexicans and Mexican-Americans worldwide. The celebration at CSUSB will feature cultural performances, music, exhibits, activities for children and a variety of Mexican foods that will be sold at booths. Free parking is available in Lot D. The event’s sponsors are: CSUSB’s Latinos Education & Advocacy Days project (LEAD); the CSUSB Office of the President & Cabinet; Office of the Mexican Consulate, San Bernardino; Cardenas Markets; the CSUSB Association of Latino Faculty, Staff& Students; Associated Students, Inc.; CSUSB’s Liberal Studies Program; the College of Extended Learning & Global Education; the Office of Undergraduate Studies; Santos Manuel Student Union LatinX Center; the Roman Catholic Diocese of San Bernardino/ Office of Catholic Schools; San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools; Assemblymember Eloise Gómez Reyes, California 47th Assembly District; Gil Navarro, non-attorney representative; San Bernardino Mission Chapel / Santana Funeral Services; and AT&T, Riverside and San Bernardino counties.

Retailer s need passa ge of USMCA, provides str eamlined supply chain merce. The chapter contains strong, fair disciplines and a firm foundation for U.S. companies that conduct international business in the digital marketplace. It would help provide protections for consumer privacy while also ensuring safeguards for intellectual property and secure crossborder data sharing.

By Rachel Michelin President / CEO California Retail-

ers Association

etailers are everywhere we look; on the corner of Main Street in tiny towns, big towns, and online. In fact, there are so many retailers across the U.S. that our industry is the largest private-sector employer. With so many people having an interest and need for department stores, convenience stores, supermarkets, grocery stores, vision and auto stores and beyond, it is our hope that Congress will support the more than 418,000 retail establishments across California by passing the United StatesMexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA). More than 25 years ago, the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) provided small- and medium-sized businesses a stable and open North American market, helping to make them more globally competitive. However, we need an updated agreement that maintains certain provisions within NAFTA, including tariff-free trade, while modernizing others. Fortunately, the revisions within USMCA align with modern technology and business practices and they strike the right balance between preserving and modernizing NAFTA. This new and improved trade deal would lead to a strengthened supply chain, more higherpaying jobs and stronger economies throughout North America—similar to what we experienced when the original NAFTA deal was implemented 25 years ago. There are many beneficial provisions within the USMCA. One is the new digital trade chapter, which provides new and much-needed rules that would bolster digital com-

Above all, passing the USMCA would further reduce barriers to international trade and stabilize the U.S. relationship with our two largest trading partners— Canada and Mexico. With this type of increased and balanced access into North American markets, retailers nationwide, specifically smaller businesses, would experience boosted sales, driving economic momentum and providing consumers with the products and goods they need at more affordable prices. It would also protect American jobs and increase pay—two goals retailers work toward every day. In fact, the International Trade Commission recently found that if the USMCA was implemented and enforced, it would create 176,000 jobs and boost U.S. GDP by $68.2 billion dollars. The Commission also estimated that the manufacturing industry, which supports each and every retailer across the country, would experience the largest gain in output and employment. And with manufacturers contributing so heavily to the state’s economy and to a number of different industries—and with North American trade being so important to California manufacturers, as data from the National Association of Manufacturers makes clear— this is critically important. As the state’s representative of all retail companies and their employees, the California Retailers Association’s mission is to improve the lives of not just retailers, but customers as well. That is exactly why we are urging Congress to pass the USMCA. The need for a new trade agreement between the U.S., Canada and Mexico has been a long time coming. Leaders from each North American nation signed the USMCA last November and Mexico became the first nation to ratify the deal last month. The time for Congress to act is now.

Chuckwalla Bench event I’m a student who has lived in the Coachella Valley for my whole life, but only recently had the opportunity to visit and explore one of the Mojave Desert’s most beautiful yet little known places known as the Chuckwalla Bench. Chuckwalla Bench is part of the California Desert National Conservation Lands — public lands that are scattered throughout the southeastern corner of California.

an LGBTQ club that convenes for outings just like this. Some were from Mojave Desert Land Trust, and some were from COFEM — the Council of Mexican Federations in North America. Some campers were older, and some were as young as 13. But all of them represent the diversity of our nation, and share a connection to public lands that belong to all of us.

I’ve always loved exploring the Desert’s magnificent landscapes, but advocating for them became even more important to me on a recent camping trip to BLM lands.

Together we explored Chuckwalla Bench, which stretches from Joshua Tree National Park down to the Colorado River. We camped overnight just off Milpitas Wash, and gazed in awe at the brilliant dark night sky. The Bench is so remote that stargazers can see the Milky Way, constellations, and planets. And unlike most of Southern California, there’s no

light pollution to interfere with the view. We trekked to the Hauser Geode beds during the day, and searched for geodes and thunder eggs along beautiful veins of exposed geology. We drove along the historic Bradshaw Trail, a pristine snapshot of a time in California’s history when wagon trains shuttled gold through this part of the desert. We learned that Chuckwalla Bench was the site of one of General Patton’s World War II training camps, one of many ways these lands reflect important pieces of our nation’s heritage. We hiked the volcanic peaks of Graham Pass, and discussed opportunities for outdoor recreation on the Bench that many of us weren’t even aware of. We talked about the region’s Native American hunting heritage, and how indigenous people came up from the Colorado River banks to hunt for deer and game birds in these desert forests. I didn’t know until the trip that it’s one of the Desert’s largest and most intact tortoise habitats, or that it’s the only place on Earth you can find Munz’s Cholla — the largest kind of cactus in California. There’s so much worth preserving here that I can’t understand how it could possibly face threats to its protection. But somehow, the area faces ongoing challenges. That’s why I urge everyone who loves these special landscapes to join me in calling for improved protection, public access, and management of the California Desert National Conservation Lands. These public lands embody the collective histories of the many people who call the Desert home. If we want them to be part of the future we offer our children and grandchildren, it’s essential that we safeguard their irreplaceable cultural and ecological resources. We need to work together to stave off these threats, and call for better policy protections from industrial development, vandalism, and groundwater extraction. We need better management and stewardship of important cultural resources. And above all, we need to make sure that ALL people have access to lands like Chuckwalla Bench, and ensure diverse communities can navigate and better understand what these lands have to offer. Please join me in supporting improved protection for Chuckwalla Bench, and the rest of the California Desert National Conservation Lands. I want to preserve these places for future generations, and I hope that you do as well. Diego Alaniz Student Volunteer with Great Outdoors

Community celebrates the life of Jo h n M . F u t c h , J r. Community News

ohn M. Futch, Jr. was born June 15, 1950 in Merced, California.

He was the oldest of four children; born into an Air Force family with parents who lovingly instilled in him a sense of structure and a strong work ethic. John was a natural leader as the big brother in a traveling family. He kept the siblings unified as they traveled around the world – imparting in them an unbreakable alliance. Through all the transitions John, Terry, Lois and Stan relied on each other. They relied on the solid foundation of a loving family. And the kids relied on John’s innate leadership. John was always in charge. He was the oldest and carried the most responsibility. Mature. Articulate. Brilliant. Confident. These are words that described John at an early age. It was no shock that John finished high school at the age of 16 without sacrificing extra- curricular activities. He played football, wrestled and ran track. He was accomplished at a young age – willing to tackle any challenge. John exemplified a sense of fearlessness and strength that only grew as he did. John moved across the country to Washington DC to start a posi-

tion at the FBI at the age of 17. There, he worked as a fingerprint examiner and met his beautiful wife Liz.

On a sweltering day, he stumbled into a police trailer looking for air conditioning and found an employment opportunity. He became a Metro DC Police Officer, who helped ensure safety following the peak of the Civil Rights movement. He was a peace keeper, a husband and a father who worked diligently to provide for his children; Marcus and Adrienne. John retired from the police force due to injury and drove his young family back to California with a license plate that read, “Broke.” He continuously played Elton John’s song “Bennie and the Jets” on the eight-track. John, Liz, Marcus and Adrienne made their home in Southern California, close to his siblings and parents. When John Futch Sr. was on his death bed, he lit a renewed fire in John Jr. He challenged John to further his education. John pursued his academic goals. His intelligence combined with his boldness created a synergy that forged an esteemed community leader. John enrolled at the California

State University of San Bernardino. He earned his bachelor’s degree in Political Science; and his master’s degree in Social Sciences at CSUSB.

John continued with his passion for education as an administrator at CSUSB. He dedicated his work to honoring culture and diversity. John was instrumental in providing a platform for Native American educators, artists and performers. He played a vital role in bringing San Manuel’s California Native American Day Children’s Program to CSUSB. The San Manuel Pow Wow, the Tribe’s largest event of the year, is hosted at CSUSB thanks in large part to John. His service in education continued when he was elected as a Trustee with the San Bernardino Community College District. The “Friends of John Futch Textbook Scholarship” was launched in 2007 to help provide book scholarships for students, with a preference for students with community service involvement, first generation college students and historically underserved students. John M. Futch was a name in the community that was synonymous with action, advancement and assurance. He worked as a trusted Chief of Staff to his close friend and, then, Board of Supervisor James

Ramos. Most recently, John was elected as the President of the San Bernardino Branch of the NAACP. He led the group with a focus on communication and service to the community. John was dedicated to helping others and pursued various avenues of civic engagement, awareness and advocacy. He served as a liaison to law enforcement as a trusted member of the Sheriff’s Information Exchange Committee. In his role, John fostered in meaningful con-

versations about community engagement and cultural diversity education. John provided exemplary motivation for his son and grandson. Marcus Futch Sr. serves as a peace officer with Desert Hot Springs Police; and Marcus Futch Jr. is attending the Fullerton Police Academy. They continue the family legacy of selflessness, service and sacrifice. John M. Futch passed away on August 11, 2019.

ayla Villanueva is an amazing young woman. A native of San Bernardino, she is 26 years old, her father is Filipino and her Mother is Caucasian. She has 2 younger brothers and is a graduate of San Gorgonio High School.

It is impossible to envision Africa without thinking of its animals. A major activity was their three day Safari to the internationally known Kruger National Park. It is one of the largest reserves in Africa and one of the largest in the world. It covers 7,523 square miles.

Her parents are divorced but she maintains a warm relationship with both of them. She has several relatives in the Philippines and hopes to visit them in the near future. She has received two Bachelor Degrees from the University of California in San Bernardino. Her degrees are in Psychology and in Early Child Development. She will receive a Master’s Degree in December of this year. She is an aggressive employee, having three jobs. Not only is she an Associate Psychology Professor, she is a registrar at the Highland YMCA and also a teacher at a local Child Center. A few weeks ago, Kayla joined a group of fourteen -12 females

n 2016, Roland was young man sleeping on the streets of Victorville. The effects of Roland’s untreated mental illness and his substance use disorder resulted in broken relationships and homelessness. His life changed the day he decided to visit the San Bernardino County Department of Behavioral Health (DBH) High Desert Transitional Age Youth (TAY) Center. Behavioral health staff conducted an assessment and guided him into treatment. Today, Roland, 24, is not only celebrating his recovery from a mental health and substance use disorder, but his graduation from San Bernardino Valley College and acceptance into California State University San Bernardino School of Nursing. Perhaps even more inspiring is that although Roland’s story may be extraordinary, it is not unique. This year alone San Bernardino County celebrated the recovery of two other formerly homeless youth who participated in TAY programs and have since graduated from community college and been accepted into four-year universities. Amir, 25, is attending Cal State San Bernardino and Wolfie, 21, is attending the University of California, Riverside.

Kayla’s primary objective in going to South Africa was, “To learn about race and racism and the ending of apartheid.” Unfortunately, she learned that all three paralleled racism and white supremacy in the United States. Since the time of Nelson Mandela, significant advances have been made. The first invasion into South Africa was by the Dutch in the early 1600’s at the same time as the Puritans into Plymouth.

Other services and supports include peer support groups, medication, housing, employment, and reduced- to no- college tuition.

“MHSA allows counties like San Bernardino to develop programs like TAY that are specifically tailored to the unique needs of the community and those we serve,” said DBH Director Veronica Kelley. “TAY programs engage youth into appropriate treatment, reduce

hospitalizations and/or involvement in the criminal justice system, reduces homelessness, and supports the next generation through personal connections that build and strengthen the resilience needed to succeed in life.”

BUT, Great Britain dominated both Africaans and the Dutch. The separation has two important dates. On December 31, 1931, but the British Monarch remained the head of State. On May 31, 1961, the South African Republic severed all ties from Great Britain.

Racism is tied to apartheid, which means “apartness.” Apartheid is the “political policy of racial segregation.” Kayla says she saw racism everywhere, which means the ending of Apartheid has not changed enough. The comparison with TAY services are provided in co- racism is very apparent. ordination with the San Bernardino County Department of It seems to me that Kayla has Children’s and Family Services, three experiences that will linger Probation, contractor providers, with her.

to travel more and expose myself to other cultures.” Personally, I hope she follows up on her current feelings. Meeting other cultures is a great education. The second influence is Kayla’s exposure to the African animals. Seeing animals in complete freedom would be meaningful and frightening at the same time. Grazing lions and elephants in close presence with giraffes and hippos is primitive. With Kayla it was more personal. Something that very few people experience. She spent considerable time with a pride (group) of lions: Sharing space and petting one. They were not full-grown lions but cubs. Chubby cubs for sure between 2 and 3 feet from nose to tail. She enjoyed holding and petting them. The animals were playful. Of course, they make playful grunts and pleasant growls. Still, they were wild animals. One of them bit her arm, but did not break the skin. The last adventure she had is very difficult for me to completely grasp it. I have read often about it. Dangerous to be sure. Sharks are native to South Africa. Especially the “great white sharks.” They are referred to as the “predators of the ocean.” They can grow up to 30-40 feet in length. They are carnivorous and will eat everything, even other sharks. It is a common event in South Africa waters to get in a cage and go down to confront the sharks. Kayla and six others wore scuba diving gear, entered a ten-foot square cage with strong steel bars and were lowered into the deep waters, by a crane from a tugboat. Raw meat was thrown around the cage and immediately there were several huge white sharks gobbling the meat and bumping the cage. Talk about an adventure. In my reading, occasionally the sharks would break a bar. However, they were too big to enter the cage. She made 2 dives, one for 30 minutes, the other for 45 minutes. I’m sure that Kayla and her companions will never forget their shark experience. Amen. Selah. So be it.

tater Bros. Charities and Inland Women Fighting Cancer presented a check for $125,000 to the Loma Linda University Cancer Center on August 20. The funds were a portion of those raised at the 11th annual Believe Walk in October 2018.

Judy Chatigny, MSN, executive director of Loma Linda University Cancer Center, said the donation will be used to support the psycho-oncology program, which assists with services not typically covered by insurance, such as psychologists, spiritual chaplains, fi-

nancial guidance, dieticians, wig banks, and the new offering of massage services for patients. During the check presentation at Stater Bros. corporate headquarters, Chatigny said the Cancer Center is constantly finding new ways to serve patients. This year

your teenager to open up to you, try talking to other parents to see how they talk to their sons and daughters. You may get some helpful insights on how you can successfully engage your children. 6. See Things From Your Children’s Perspective: Many parents engage their children from their own point of view. Another helpful suggestion is to try to see

things from your teenager’s perspective when dealing with their problems. Once you see things from your teenager’s point of view, you will be better able to get your teenager to open up to you.

How parents can help their children deal with today’s mental health issues

o you worry about how your son or daughter can handle today’s mental health issues such as bullying, peer pressure, depression, and addiction? Here are six suggestions a parent should follow in helping their children overcome the pressures of being a teenager in today’s stressful environment. 1. Talk To Your Teenager On A Regular Basis: One of the most important things a parent can do is to talk to their children about the current issues that they may be dealing with. Do not bombard your son or daughter with endless questions and do not get argumentative. Establish some kind of dialogue between you and your children so they will be willing to talk with you. 2. Education Is Key: Both parents should be familiar on the issues of bullying, suicide, addiction, and other mental health issues. Every teenager should be aware of the resources that are out there to help them and they should be aware of where to go for help. 3. Watch Out For Any Red Flags And Do Not Assume Anything: If you notice any changes in your teenager’s moods or behavior, do something about it by discussing these changes with your son or daughter. If things get serious, then talk to a counselor for some advice. Do not assume that your teenager is going through some kind of phase or they will snap out of it. 4. How To Encourage Your Children To Talk To You: Many teenagers are reluctant to talk to their parents because they are afraid their parents will get angry and take it out on them. Some teenagers may think their parents won’t be able to understand their situation. With this in mind, try to establish a sense of trust with your teenager and encourage them to come to you when they are struggling. 5. Get Advice From Other Parents: If you have trouble getting

they have added a massage therapy service specifically for cancer patients. The therapists have been trained to service patients who are undergoing chemo. In addition, Chatigny said the Cancer Center has hired a financial coordinator to help offer financial support to patients who need high-cost treatments. In 2019 alone, the center has received $2.6 million in free drug and co-pay assistance for patients. “Patients face many challenges, and our focus is to at Loma Linda University Cancer Center is to help alleviate them in any way we can,” Chatigny said. “We are so very grateful for the continued partnership with Stater Bros. Charities and Inland Women

Fighting Cancer, who help our patients thrive during some of the toughest times in their lives.” Stater Bros. Charities chairman and president, Nancy Negrette, said Stater Bros. Charities believes in making sure the funds they raise stay in the community that Stater Bros. serves. “Many of us have had family members and friends who have received services at Loma Linda University Cancer Center, so we know firsthand how important the resources are to cancer patients in our community,” Negrette says. “We are proud to continue our partnership with the Cancer Center so they can continue the work they do for our community.” The Believe Walk was created through the partnership of Inland Women Fighting Cancer founding members Cathy Stockton, Annie Sellas and the late Nancy Varner, along with Stater Bros. Charities. Negrette said the first Believe Walk had 1,400 walkers in 2008. The walk has now grown exponentially to approximately 12,000 participants. Since its inception, the partnership between Stater Bros. Charities and Inland Women Fighting Cancer has donated over $5.1 million to support programs, services and equipment for cancer patients in the Inland Empire. The 12th annual Believe Walk will take place in Redlands on Sunday, October 6.

Omnitrans rate hike, route changes set for Sept. 3

mnitrans will raise fares for the first time in five years on September 3, 2019. The same day, the transit agency will add new Route 12, eliminate freeway express Route 208 due to low ridership, and implement additional route changes to enhance connectivity and efficiency. A single bus trip will increase from $1.75 to $2.00 while the 1day pass rate will rise from $5 to $6. A 31-day pass goes from $55 to $60 and a 7-day pass will be $20, up from $18. Single ride and one-day passes are also sold in discounted 10-packs. Persons with disabilities, seniors age 62 and up, military veterans, and youth age 18 and under are eligible for reduced fares. Single rides and 1-day passes can be purchased with cash on

board buses. Bus passes are also available for advance purchased through the Token Transit mobile payment app, the Omnitrans online store, and at various retail pass outlet locations. Fares also increase on Omnitrans’ Access service which transports persons with disabilities who qualify under Americans with Disability Act (ADA) guidelines. The new Access base fare will be $3.75, up from $3.25. (See fare tables for details.) Freeway express Route 208, which travels on Interstate 10 between Yucaipa, Redlands and San Bernardino will be cut due to low ridership. Omnitrans offers two local bus routes which connect those three communities, Routes 8 and 19. New Route 12 provides a direct

connection between Fontana and Rialto to California State University, San Bernardino. It replaces and duplicates portions of current Route 11. Route 12 will serve major employment centers including Amazon warehouses and Renaissance Marketplace in Rialto. Route 22 was also realligned to serve Renaissance Marketplace. Some underutilized early morning and late evening trips will be eliminated on Routes 1, 3, 4, 5, 7, 14, 15, 66 and 85. Nearly all of Omnitrans’ 34 bus routes will have at least minor schedule adjustments. Details are available online at: Guide to September 2019 Service Changes The Omnitrans Board of Directors approved the fare and service changes in May, following public hearings held in April.

Notice to Potential Bidders If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a Trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a Trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same Lender may hold more than one mortgage or Deed of Trust on the property.
