n Tuesday, February 13, 2018 the Woman’s Club of Rialto met at their club headquarters located at 219 North Riverside Avenue to hold their first Paint Night fundraiser. Woman’s Club President Kathleen Holm explained that the event was being held to provide monies to their High School Scholarship fund and the Rialto High School Art Department. “We invited Deborah Mount, an art teacher for Rialto High School, to come and lead our ladies in a Paint Night,” said Holm, “I had met her previously at the Rialto Relay for Life while working with the Students Stopping Cancer Club making a Paint, cont. on next pg.

With about 30 ladies in attendance the class began with everyone making a folded note paper using techniques akin to origami. One Woman’s Club member, Joanne Miller, was demonstrating how perfectly the paper fell into place with the correct folding technique. Her friend Patti Guerra, who is also a club member, said, “This is the first time we’ve done a Paint Night so we decided, hey, let’s give this a try!”

With the shift to Common Core, there was also a need to have a fully upgraded infrastructure as well as devices to enable students to become proficient in technology, which is one of the Common Core requirements. The District has purchased the following equipment in the first of its 3-year rollout:

• iPad Mini carts for RUSD preschools with a count of 30 iPad mini’s and cases per cart; • iPad Mini carts for kindergarten and first grade to share 30 iPad Mini’s and cases per cart;

in a good and positive way. You can contact them on their Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/TheWomansClubOfRia lto/.

• Second grade classes will share a Chromebook cart with 35 Chromebooks per cart; • Third through sixth grades will receive a Chromebook cart per classroom with 40 Chromebooks per cart; • Math and science classes at high schools will receive a laptop cart with 32 laptops per cart and 4 additional laptops as needed (to meet class sizes of 36).

How will the iPads and Chromebooks be used exactly? The iPads for grades TK, K and 1, for example, were provided

with a primary purpose of providing access to Footsteps 2 Brilliance, part of the district’s literacy initiative. Teachers also have the opportunity to provide access to other educational programs that will enhance student learning. For the 2017-18 school year, Chromebooks were provided for students in grades 2, 3 and 6. New laptop carts were provided to specific subject areas at the high school level. Over the next two years, class sets of new devices will be provided for all classrooms in the district so that all students can access G Suite for Education, online curriculum materials, online assessments and other web based educational programs that will enhance student learning Over the next two years, class sets of new devices will be provided for all classrooms in the district so that all students can access G Suite for Education, which is a variety of free tools provided by Google, while at the same time supporting the learning objectives for student online curriculum materials, assessments and other web based educational programs.

Funding for the upgrades and new devices comes directly from the district’s general fund. The cost of the new devices only (not the infrastructure upgrades), will be $36 million over three years. “We made a shift in priorities to make sure that we could provide this technology for our students,” Roach said about the funding priorities for the program. “We are working to prepare students to be competitive in obtaining future careers that most likely have not even been created yet.” Finally, Roach added that the Rialto Unified School District “intends to provide the opportunity for students to learn how to responsibly utilize technology as it relates to the 4 C's of 21st century learning: critical thinking, communication, collaboration and creativity.” “We are surrounded by new technologies and the expectation is that students learn how to navigate their future college or career choices having the necessary technology skills to be successful,” he concluded.

With a shift to Common Core, it was imperative that the Rialto Unified School District upgrade its technology infrastructure and student computers in order to meet the demands of the curriculum and testing standards for all students, including the youngest of learners.

Miller added, “It’s always good to learn something new. I mean, some of us already paint, but we don’t know this style of painting, and it looks like fun!”

During class time, Mount explained that the ladies would be learning three styles of Asian ink brush painting and gave them a brief history of the characters of each style. She then gave instructions of the technical applications for the paintings, encouraging each artist to take a more relaxed approach to creating their individual masterpieces.

At the end of Paint Night, the Woman’s Club group were amazed at the endless talent in the room and were looking forward to another opportunity to delve into the intricacies of more painting styles.

Reducing mass shootings will require all Americans to take action

the tower at the University of Texas, 1,077 people have been killed in over 90 mass shootings in the U.S. Of those people, 176 were children. In those incidents there were 292 guns used--167 of which were obtained legally and 49 illegally. Approximately 150 shooters utilized those guns in their mayhem.

Anthony Victoria

e had our most recent mass shooting last week when 19-yearold Nikolas Cruz shot and killed 17 people at Douglas Stoneman High School in Florida.

As with many tragic incidents people came together for a show of solidarity, mainly by sending prayers and holding vigils to honor victims.

And again in the midst of another tragedy there is a debate about whether we should get rid of guns or not.

The conversation around gun control is obviously not a black and white issue. It's easy to point the finger at the NRA member, the conservative politician, or the ardent constitutionalist. But have we accomplished anything by doing so? Instead, we’ve thrown away opportunities to make critical changes to our nation’s gun laws. Unfortunately, trivial arguments have only resulted in more death for innocent people.

Before we attempt to seize firearms and find others to blame, we must all come together to call for common sense restrictions that will ensure guns don’t fall into the wrong hands. Both the left and right need to look beyond partisanship to save the moral fiber of our nation. Since 1966, the year Charles Whitman killed 16 people from

The aforementioned data provided by the Gun Violence Archive should be staggering, no matter what political viewpoints you hold. Nonetheless, both devout second amendment followers and gun control advocates need to confront some inconvenient truths.

The United States currently has an estimated 270 million to 310 million guns in circulation. That's nearly one firearm per American (U.S. population is currently at 320 million). A few guns for sport or protection is of course a constitutional right. But as we've witnessed here in San Bernardino and with other incidents, many shooting perpetrators have created stockpiles and re-assembled guns to make them “deadlier.”

Despite some examples of swift gun control (Australia has not had any mass shootings since they implemented gun control measures in 1996), it doesn't mean such policies will work here in the U.S. Mass shootings in nations like Australia and the United Kingdom are a rarity. Moreover, limiting an individual’s right to bear arms may invite more physical confrontation, as opposed to preventing it.

Resolving the issue of mass shootings evidently will require a long term approach--one that will take many months and years of conversation and action. Reducing mass shootings will come from identifying people with mental illness or individuals suffering through social distress. It will come from law enforcement agencies doing their due diligence and vetting individuals with suspicious activity. It will come from politicians on both sides of the aisle doing the right thing for their constituents.

Winston Churchill’s Darkest Hour

By Dr. Paul Kengor

ast Saturday I dropped off my two oldest sons and their friend at the theatre. I planned to kill a couple of hours at the bookstore, on my laptop, at a coffee shop, whatever. When I got out of the car the balmy twodegree temperature in Pittsburgh prompted second thoughts. Instead, I strolled into the theater complex, looked around, and saw a poster for “Darkest Hour.” I vaguely knew it was a movie about Winston Churchill. I bought a ticket and went in.

I was hooked from the opening scene: a grim, dank, colorless House of Commons, nothing like the fun and festive place you see when you click on C-SPAN on Sunday night to watch “Question Time” with the prime minister. This was interrogation time with the prime minister, with Neville Chamberlain in the dock on May 9, 1940, while Labour Party opposition leader, Clement Attlee, barked at him for his failed accommodation of Adolph Hitler.

Attlee, of course, would one day go on to nationalize everything his Fabian socialists could get their covetous government hands on, and Churchill in this film nicely refers to him as “that wolf in sheep’s clothing, Attlee.” At this moment, however, Attlee was spot-on. Chamberlain had fully earned the evisceration.

It’s after this opening that we see Winston Churchill for the first time—instantly riveting because of the incredible performance by the leading man. I had walked into this movie cold (literally), with no clue of the actors, the writer, the directors, the producers. Not until the credits did I find out who

played Churchill. It was Gary Oldman. I would have never guessed it. Oldman was flatly amazing.

There are plenty such kudos to go around for this film. Among the characters and those who played them: Churchill’s wife (Kristin Scott Thomas), Anthony Eden (Samuel West), Neville Chamberlain (Ronald Pickup), Viscount Halifax (Stephen Dillane), King George VI (Ben Mendelsohn), and the young woman (Lily James) who had the lead female role as Churchill’s secretary/typist. The writer was Anthony McCarten, whose script was superb.

McCarten and director Joe Wright delivered so many fine scenes, from the tragedy at Calais to the capitulation of France. As to the latter, in one painful exchange Churchill asks French Prime Minister Paul Reynaud incredulously, “Tell me how you plan to counterattack.” To Churchill’s horror, the leader of France responds: “There is no plan.” Reynaud and one of his lackeys sniff at the Brits for being so “delusional.” Churchill is less delusional than aghast. “France must be saved!” he insists. That, unfortunately, was not the French plan. “Darkest Hour” depicts all of this so beautifully and so, well, visually, which history books and news reels cannot or could not do.

But above all, the takeaway from this film—and from the Churchill experience—is an enduring historical-moral lesson: you cannot negotiate a just peace with a brutal aggressor. Savages are not appeased. This is poignantly captured when Churchill snaps at Viscount Halifax and Neville Chamberlain: “You cannot reason with a tiger when your head is in his mouth!”

What makes that moment and this overall film so valuable is the paramount fact that Churchill is shouting at Halifax and at Chamberlain, both Conservatives, both looking to negotiate “peace in our time” with Hitler, and neither of which had quietly disappeared when Churchill took the helm on May 10, 1940. We tend to have a nice, tidy, black-and-white view of what happened in Britain when Chamberlain stepped aside. We assume that Chamberlain vanished and then Churchill vanquished; there was hence an immediate change in tone, policy,

direction, vision.

This film, however, shows what really occurred, namely: Chamberlain and Halifax became part of Churchill’s official War Cabinet and remained tacit leaders of the Conservative Party, while the disrespected Churchill was merely a compromise prime minister leading a precarious coalition government in which the Labour Party accepted him more than his own Conservative Party had. Thus, Churchill still had to deal with intense pressure to settle with Hitler, as Chamberlain and Halifax pushed him relentlessly to “negotiate terms” with the Nazis—with Benito Mussolini their recommended splendid mediator. It was a lousy situation for Churchill, who faced a possible vote of no confidence if he couldn’t keep Chamberlain and Halifax on the reservation.

That ugly internal battle, which is the core of the movie, went on for an extraordinarily decisive month of May 1940, when Churchill soul-searched, struggled, lost sleep, drank, nearly wobbled, and Britain could have caved. Ultimately, Britain stood strong because Churchill—in his courage—refused to stick his head near the mouth of the tiger. Churchill said “Never!” to the Fuhrer. That course both inspired his people and had been inspired by his people. And the rest is history.

Churchill’s “Darkest Hour” was, in truth, a series of dark hours that lasted two or three weeks in May 1940, when Western civilization hung in the balance. He was severely tested. He responded with bouts of confidence and doubt, turmoil and inspiration, cigars and (lots of) alcohol—as Oldman shows so vividly. Ultimately, mercifully, he persevered. This powerful film portrays what he was up against and how he prevailed—a rousing lesson from the time and for the ages. —Dr. Paul Kengor is professor of political science and executive director of The Center for Vision & Values at Grove City College.

’ve been telling the following story for several years. However, I’ve never known its source. Never knew who wrote it.

Recently I learned the answer. It was published in 1936 and was written by the great British writer, W. Somerset Maugham. The story is called “The Verger.” A verger was like a janitor who took care of the inside of a church. They were poorly paid and lowest on the social scale. In this story, Mr. Foreman-a wealthy tycoon-is asked: “And you amassed a fortune and built up this important business without being able to read or write?” Then comes the kicker. “Think what you would be now if you had been able to?”

The background of the story is most interesting. As a verger (janitor) at St. Peter’s Neville Square, he was fired because he couldn’t read or write. Mr. Foreman leaves very depressed. Outside the church was a boy selling apples,

Back to Mr. Foreman. When asked the above question, he said, “I’d still be a verger (janitor) at the church. Harvey Mackay in his best seller, “We Got Fired,” states the moral of the story. Not that it pays to be illiterate, but that it pays, “not to let certain skills trap you into dead-end situations.”

These words are not a defense for ignorance, but a reminder that education is not always the answer. Sam Walton quit Wheaton School of Finance; Bill Gates, founder of Microsoft, is a college dropout-from Harvard.

Pierce Brosnan, Hilary Swank, Peter Jennings, Sean Connery, Sir Richard Branson (founder of Virgin Atlantic Airways,) Sir Peter Ustinov were all dropouts from high school.

I like Mackay’s final admonition. “Education may get you out of the gutter, it’s only relevant knowledge that can lift you off the sidewalk.”

Seeing eye dogs have been a part of our culture for many years. Hazel Hurst was one of the original founders of the movement at the beginning of the 20th century.

and the breed of dogs that were preferred.

Finally, she was asked, “What is the most difficult thing for the dogs to learn?” Her answer amazed everyone. She said, “To get the dogs to look at life from the eye-level of a six-foot man or a five-foot woman.”

The explanation she gave is a parable for life. “Dogs naturally have their eyes and nose to the ground. They sniff and look at life from a one-foot level. If they are to help a blind person, they must raise the level of their horizon.” It takes a lot of training to get the dogs to change their view of life. Not unlike people. Changing our views from fear to faith; from despair to hope; from pessimism to optimism; from suspicion to trust; and from selfishness to selflessness. Raising our horizon.

It takes a lot of training and a lot of learning. A bit of levity is needed, and the following story always amuses me. It’s called the Pope and the Rabbi. Several centuries ago, the Pope decreed that all the Jews had to convert or leave Italy. There was a huge outcry from the Jewish community, so the Pope offered a deal. He would have a religious debate with the leader of the Jewish community.

On the chosen day, the Pope and Rabbi Moishe sat opposite each other for a full minute. The Pope raised his hand and showed three fingers. Rabbi Moishe looked back and raised one finger. Next the Pope waved his finger around his head. Rabbi Moishe pointed to the ground. The Pope then brought out a communion wafer and a chalice of wine. Rabbi Moishe pulled out an apple. With that, the Pope stood up and declared that he was beaten, that Rabbi Moishe was clever, and that the Jews could stay.

On one occasion she was asked about the training techniques used to train the dogs: the behavior patterns that were used, the various commands that were necessary,

If the Jews won, they could stay in Italy. If the Pope won, they would have to leave. The Jewish people met and picked an aged but wise Rabbi, Moishe, to represent them in the debate. Since Moishe spoke no Italian and the Pope

I pulled out the wine and wafer to show that God absolves us from our sins. He pulled out an apple to remind me of the original sin.

We start over the AL with defending champs, the Astros. After Justin Verlander predicted the Astros “ran the American League” the controversy began. While the Astros are looking to shape up nicely, there are some teams threatening to dethrone them.

The first, the New York Yankees. The bombers have power everywhere with top home run hitters in Gincarlo Stanton and Aaron Judge. They also continue to have their elite pitching rotation and seem to be the favorites going in. The second team may be a surprise, but it is our local team, the Angels! With the exciting addi-

Depor ted veterans continue to str uggle on other side of border many of them struggle with poverty and substance addiction.

Hector Barajas, who founded the Deported Veterans Support House in 2013, said the “bunker” has become a resource center for exiled veterans that are in need of support. Barajas’ own experience with deportation--living on the streets in Tijuana--compelled him to help fellow veterans who were grappling with internal issues.

“There was a necessity,” said Barajas, who served in the U.S. Army. “We help [veterans] with VA benefits, we connect with ACLU attorneys, and we work with legislators to resolve issues.”

Andy de Leon, 72, immigrated with his family from Mexico to the Central Valley when he was 12 years old. He enlisted in the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War--serving for 12 years. Depression led de Leon to a life of drugs and incarceration, which evidently resulted in his deportation from the U.S. Hundreds of thousands of people living in Tijuana, Mexico today were deported at some time by the U.S. government. However, according to U.S. Army veteran Hector Barajas, who runs the Deported Veterans Support House, there is no agency that keeps track of how many deported veterans there are. By Anthony Victoria

TIJUANA, Mexico--A clean cut U.S. Marine stood alongside fellow veterans at the Deported Veterans Support House last December to welcome a recent delegation of state and federal legislators.

Jose Luis Alvarez, with his perfect English and stoic physical presence, appears as American as any proud veteran. Except, he’s not. He’s a Mexican national whose world was turned upside down a month ago when he was given deportation orders. Alvarez, 45, a former U.S. Marine was charged with a felony by

Los Angeles County prosecutors. After being told he would be given a deal, Alvarez claims he was forced to leave the country.

“We did everything we could, and I still got deported,” expressed Alvarez. “I have a wife and a 3-year-old son back home. It’s hitting them real hard.”

Like Alvarez, who migrated to the U.S. with his family from Michoacan, Mexico in 1975, other veterans have left behind livelihoods on the other side of the border due to deportation. They’ve been convicted of crimes--mostly nonviolent--and have served time in prison. Once they complete their sentences, they are sent to border towns like Tijuana, where

Barajas believes a lot of progress has been made in recent years. There is more media exposure, an array of support from state and federal legislators (some deported veterans have been pardoned by Gov. Jerry Brown), and there is more access to medical care. Barajas is awaiting a naturalization hearing that may see him return to the U.S.

Nonetheless, deported veterans continue to lack access to legal resources, struggle with drug and alcohol abuse, and renewed Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.

“One of the hardest things for these veterans is being away from their families,” Barajas said. “It’s hard for them to find housing and it’s hard to find access to medical health care. They’re facing renewed traumatic events--being incarcerated, facing deportation, finding a place to live, and getting clean and sober. It just amplifies their stress.”

California lawmakers introduced Assembly Bill 386--legislation that intends to help pay for legal fees for deported veterans that were previously stationed in the state or have children attending California schools.

Mark Takano (D-Riverside), the League of United Latin American Citizens, and U.S. born veterans visited the Deported Veterans Support House on Dec. 27, 2017 to learn more about the experiences of the deported veterans. They took a tour of the center and listened to veterans’ testimonies. “What started off as just a request from the Veterans Advisory group wanting to come to support turned into quite a delegation,” said Reyes. “These veterans served our country honorably.” Reyes is seen here speaking to deported veteran Felix Peralta Jr. (D-San Diego), U.S. Rep. Mark Takano (D-Riverside), the League of United Latin American Citizens, and U.S. born veterans visited the bunker on Dec. 27, 2017 to learn more about the experiences of the deported veterans. They took a tour of the center and listened to veterans’ testimonies.

“What started off as just a request from the Veterans Advisory group wanting to come to support turned into quite a delegation,” said Reyes. “These veterans served our country honorably. They put their life on the line. We are here because we want to see what we could do. We want to be sure that we find a way to one day say, ‘Welcome Home.’” Felix Peralta Jr. served in the U.S. Army in the early 1980s and was honorably discharged. He

was arrested in 1998 for aggravated assault and served three years in prison. He unsuccessfully fought against his deportation and was sent back to Sinaloa, Mexico in 2001.

Peralta admitted he held animosity against the U.S., which resulted in his “downward spiral” into substance abuse. His frustration was amplified when he learned his father passed away and his daughter committed suicide.

“It’s hard to adapt to this life,” said Peralta. “I was living in the streets until I ran into another veteran that brought me to this place. Now I’m doing this rehab, which provides me with my own psychologist to deal with my deportation and my daughter’s death. But life is very difficult here.”

“Now more than ever we have to reclaim our power because it’s being used for bad,” she said. “We have to take our power back because our lives depend on it.” In addition to Angela Rye’s keynote speech, several workshops were held throughout the day to discuss the importance of lobbying, how to be become an activist, how to become inclusive,

SB Valley College Foundation receives $25,000 Auto/Diesel grant from SoCalGas

he San Bernardino Valley College Foundation has been named one of 42 non-profit recipients of the 2018 Environmental Champions Grant presented by Southern California Gas Company (SoCalGas). The $25,000 grant will support San Bernardino Valley College’s (SBVC) Automotive and Heavy/Medium Duty (Diesel) departments.

SoCalGas’ Environmental Champions Initiative supports organizations advancing innovative environmental projects. Specifically, those contributing toward growth in clean water, clean air, and clean energy, with a special emphasis on underserved communities. The Initiative has awarded

more than $1.5 million since its 2015 inception.

“This will allow students to gain hands-on experience with stateof-the-art equipment,” said Albert Maniaol, SBVC Dean of Applied Technology, Transportation, & Culinary Arts. “The partnership between SBVC and SoCalGas is a win-win for students and our community.”

SBVC’s Automotive and Diesel departments strive to maintain cutting-edge curriculum and equipment to support a cleaner future. As transportation remains the largest producer of greenhouse gas emissions in California, the demand for a trained workforce in cleaner fuel and engines is evi-

dent.

Grant funds will be used to purchase the equipment necessary to expand the compressed natural gas, electric, and hybrid heavyduty engine repair training program. The program aims to equip students with the skills they need in a continuously-evolving, highly technical field.

“The SBVC Foundation is proud to represent innovative programs that pave the way to a better future,” said SBVC Director of Development and Community Relations Karen Childers. “We are very grateful to SoCalGas for their support.”

n January 29th, 16 students and their teachers from Shanghai Ocean University and Shaoxing University in China, arrived in Rialto. They had their first American meal at the In-N-Out restaurant, where several Rialto host families met and picked up their student guests. The Chinese students spent three weeks learning various topics including Family Structure, Education, Public Safety, Public Service, and Ecology & Environ-

ment. The students were able to attend Cal State San Bernardino for a week, before spending several days at the Inland Empire National Council of Negro Women (NCNW) facility on Riverside Avenue, where there was additional classroom instruction. The NCNW served as the headquarters where the host families brought the students for classes and field trips. During the orientation class City of Rialto Mayor Deborah Robertson welcomed and addressed the students. Mayor Robertson told the students that the City of Rialto

was in the process of negotiating a water treatment plant with a Chinese company employing state of the art filtration systems. As part of the orientation, the students received a short course on etiquette and table manners from one of the host parents, Theresa Billing. During their three-week visit in Rialto, the Chinese students had the opportunity to visit the Rialto Police and Rialto Fire Departments. They also took excursions to Santa Monica, Staples Center, Griffith Observatory, Hollywood, Farmers Market, Universal Stu-
