The San Bernardino Symphony Orchestra’s holiday concert, “Cirque de la Noel,” not only featured the performing group Cirque de la Symphonie, complete with acrobats, aerialists, contortionists and jugglers, but also included Cal State San Bernardino music student Veronica Manzanera, who made her conducting debut

Manzanera, the only CSUSB student to participate in the event, guest conducted “Sleigh Ride” by American composer Leroy Anderson during the soldout concert on Dec 17 at the California Theatre in downtown San Bernardino

Lesley Leighton, CSUSB associate professor of music and department chair, who is the principal guest conductor of the San Bernardino Symphony Orchestra (SBSO), strongly recommended Manzanera for the part

“Anthony Parnther, artistic director of SBSO, approached me about the possibility of a CSUSB conducting student working with the orchestra in December, and I identified Veronica as the student ready to take it on!” she said

Agustin Ramirez, director of the CSUSB Veterans Success Center who attended the show, said Manzanera conducted the orchestra with energy and confidence

“It’s exciting to see our young Coyote musicians on stage What a proud moment for her and for CSUSB,” he said “I can see that Maestra Veronica is a natural at the podium The musicians responded to her direction faithfully ”

This is not the first time Manzanera has worked with the SBSO

For millions of new moms, like Inland Empire Health Plan (IEHP) Member Gerti, motherhood – and all the challenges it brings – can be overwhelming

After the birth of her daughter, Gerti struggled with her mental health and recognized she needed help – so she turned to IEHP

Through her connection to Katia, a behavioral health specialist on IEHP’s maternal mental health team, Gerti learned she was experiencing postpartum depression and was connected to various resources, including supportive therapy

Although common (the CDC cites 1 in 8 women who recently gave birth suffer from it), postpartum depression is more severe and longlasting than the “baby blues,” which can include short-lived bouts of mood swings, crying spells, anxiety and difficulty sleeping

“I was just really looking for help, because it gets overwhelming – especially becoming a new mom,” explained Gerti “Sometimes the depression just catches you I just want to get through this, so I can push through for my baby, for my sanity, for my happiness ”

As Katia explains, no mother with these challenges should ever feel ashamed Feeling anxious, overwhelmed and depressed are all considered typical emotions during pregnancy and after birth

“It’s normal [for new moms] to feel the way they do; there is nothing wrong with feeling that way,” said

Katia, who also personally experienced postpartum depression “They should be proud of themselves for reaching out for help – and that is where we come in ”

IEHP’s maternal mental health team is a small, but mighty unit within the behavioral health department that connects Members with mental health services such as therapy and psychiatry

The maternal mental health team regularly checks in with Members to ask how they are feeling, what they need and to help them make those sometimes hard, but life-altering first steps of scheduling and attending therapy appointments

The team supports Members like Gerti through every step of their recovery and journey through motherhood – even if it’s to simply ask how they are doing

“If I am able to take care of myself better, I will be able to take care of my baby much more,” explained Gerti “I know that every time I am having trouble, help is just one phone call away ”

To learn more about Gerti’s story, v i s i t : https://youtu be/8IRKPmIk2CM

If you or someone you know is struggling with postpartum depression or mental health, IEHP is here for you

IEHP Members can call Member Services to connect with our behavioral health team For a mental health emergency, please call the Mental Health and Suicide Crisis Hotline at 988

W hat we lear ned about each team that played on NBA Christmas Day

For NBA fans, there’s more gifts than what is just under the tree every Christmas Each year the NBA runs a quintuple header on ABC of games featuring the brightest stars and best teams The holiday is often also a benchmark for how well teams are doing, so I’m here to review what we learned from the five matchups and 10 teams that played this Christmas Day

Warriors vs Grizzlies

Warriors: The Dubs picked up a much needed Christmas Day win without their superstar PG Stephen Curry In this game, we were more reaffirmed than educated when it came to the Warriors, specifically their young stud Jordan Poole We were reminded once again that he is an extremely streaky shooter that, when on his game, can hit any shot he takes no matter the difficulty However, not every aspect was a win, as we saw Klay Thompson continue to show his age and also reaffirm our thoughts by shooting an abysmal 8-25 from the field and 3-12 from three If the Warriors want to go back to back, they need to be healthy and need Poole and Thompson to be on the good side of streaky

Grizzlies: The Grizzlies main weakness showed on Christmas Day; their shooting Outside of Desmond Bane, the Grizz have no real consistent outside shooting threat getting key minutes Star PG Ja Morant prefers to get his 30 PPG a night at the rim, and the rest of the Grizzlies core featuring Jaren Jackson Jr and Dillion Brooks are more defensive specialists and play with the classic Memphis “Grit and Grind” mentality The Grizzlies future is bright but if they want to make the present better, they have to become better from beyond the arc

Bucks vs Celtics

Celtics: The Celtics reminded everyone that they are the defending Eastern Conference Champions with a dominant 21 point victory at home Star Forward Jayson Tatum gave Boston fans the Christmas present of a 40 point performance It’s clear Tatum wants that MVP, and he taught us this holiday season that he should be the front runner

Bucks: It’s hard to read to deep into this loss for the Bucks as they were without their second best player Khris Middleton However, even without Middleton, I’m sure Bucks fans wanted to see a better performance than 9-22 from 2 time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo Giannis being prone to being “walled up” on and struggling to score may still be a concern, but there’s no reason to even remotely panic if you’re the Bucks unless they start losing consistently when they’re healthy

Lakers vs Mavs

Mavs: The Mavs unveiled their statue of legend Dirk Nowitzki and secured a win on Christmas A 51 point 3rd quarter propelled them to the win, but the story in the first half is one to take note of The Lakers forced the ball out of Luka Doncic’s hand at every chance they got and, until the second half, no one stepped up The Mavericks will not see any significant success until Luka gets help, and that showed for awhile this game and will continue to show throughout the year barring

major changes

Lakers: The Lakers season is crumbling once again before the All Star break Anthony Davis is expected to miss a good amount of time with a foot injury, Russell Westbrook continues to be a negative, and outside of Austin Reaves and Lonnie Walker, no one can be relied on to help win them games night in and night out The message to the Lakers front office was proved needed once again, and that message is to make trades and get LeBron James help while he is still playing at a high level

76ers vs Knicks

76ers: You won’t ever see me buying into the 76ers, even despite this win against the Knicks in their rivalry matchup Yes, Joel Embiid is good and an MVP candidate, but we already knew that However, James Harden is still very inconsistent The basketball world also was reminded why Philadelphia flops every year in the playoffs, as Tobias Harris shot 0-5 from 3 The 6ers were able to get enough from Georges Niang’s outside shooting to win this game, but we know he is also not reliable come playoff time, and the 76ers should not be trusted to win big games come playoff time

Knicks: The Knicks are still and seemingly always will be one piece away from being one piece away, and we learned that this Christmas On a night where Jalen Brunson and Julius Randle put them in a position to win, RJ Barrett didn’t show up The Knicks seem like a team bound for a 500 record and an early playoff exit unless someone becomes the “one piece”

Nuggets vs Suns:

Suns: Devin Booker exited this game early and at the time I’m writing this we don’t know the full extent of the injury but given he just got back, I can’t imagine this’ll end well However, I’m going to put that aside to highlight a player that I’ve seen shine at times but showed up again tonight when called on, Landry Shamet Shamet has made his money hitting 3’s and when he gets hot he is a game changer He poured in over 30 points vs the Nuggets coming off a career night just a few nights before If Shamet can continue to light it up even when Booker returns, and Chris Paul can not lose the Suns games with his poor shooting, they have a shot to make another playoff run

Nuggets: I know I just said Jayson Tatum taught us he should be the MVP frontrunner but boy Nikola Jokic is simply special There simply isn’t a guy giving you a 41 point, 15 rebound, 15 assist triple double like Jokic did for Nuggets fans this Christmas He’s 7’0 with guard skills, tier 1 passing vision, and he can stretch the floor The Joker may be on his way to reminding us that 3 MVP’s in a row is very possible

NBA Christmas Day didn’t disappoint and gave us some great performances and matchups Now, the teams will look ahead to the remaining 50 or so games left on their regular season schedule in chase of the greatest present of all, the Larry O’Brien trophy
