Chamber Awarded Recognition For Flag Display
The National Society of the Sons of the American Revolution takes pleasure in recognizing individuals and organizations who exhibit exemplary patriotism by their display of the American Flag in a truly patriotic manner and in full compliance with the Federal Flag Code, Public Law 94-344 passed by Congress on July 7, 1976. The Flag Code Law is a rare law with no punitive provisions. It relies entirely on our willingness to observe the traditions we have established in our 244 years as a Nation. The Julian Chamber of Commerce - Town Hall has demonstrated its commitment to patriotic display of the Flag of the United States: By displaying the Flag on a stationary flagstaff in an open and highly visible position; By displaying the Flag from Sunrise to Sunset or 24 hours per day when properly illuminated during hours of darkness, and By placing U.S. Flag above all other flags; By, on special days, displaying the flag at half-staff; By on Memorial Day flying the Flag at
National Society of the Sons of the American Revolution present award to Chamber Board Chairperson Michael Hart.
Face Coverings Help Reduce the Spread of COVID-19 Governor Newsom: “Simply put, we are seeing too many people with faces uncovered – putting at risk the real progress we have made in fighting the disease.” The California Department of Public Health on Thursday(6/18) released updated guidance that requires Californians to wear a face covering in high-risk settings. A growing body of scientific research has shown that people with no or few symptoms of COVID-19 can still spread the disease and that the use of face coverings, combined with physical distancing and frequent hand washing, will reduce the spread of COVID-19. “Science shows that face coverings and masks work,” said Governor Gavin Newsom. “They are critical to keeping those who are around you safe, keeping businesses open and restarting our economy.” Governor Newsom also addressed why he took this action now. “Simply put, we are seeing too many people with faces uncovered – putting at risk the real progress we have made in fighting the disease. California’s strategy to restart the economy and get people back to work will only be successful if people act safely and follow health recommendations. That means wearing a face covering, washing your hands and practicing physical distancing.” “As Californians venture into our communities more, wearing face coverings is another important way we can help protect one another,” said Dr. Sonia Angell, State Public Health Officer and Director of the California Department of Public Health. “Combined with physical distancing and frequent hand washing, wearing cloth face coverings when we are with others outside of our household will reduce the spread of COVID-19, which is still a very real threat across our state." Thursday's guidance mandates the use of cloth face coverings by the general public statewide when outside the home, with limited exceptions. Californians must wear face coverings when they are in the situations listed below: Inside of, or in line to enter, any indoor public space; • Obtaining services from the healthcare sector in settings including, but not limited to, a hospital, pharmacy, medical clinic, laboratory, physician or dental office, veterinary clinic, or blood bank; • Waiting for or riding on public transportation or paratransit or while in a taxi, private car service, or ride-sharing vehicle; • Engaged in work, whether at the workplace or performing work off-site, when: Interacting in-person with any member of the public; • Working in any space visited by members of the public, regardless of whether anyone from the public is present at the time; • Working in any space where food is prepared or packaged for sale or distribution to others; • Working in or walking through common areas, such as hallways, stairways, elevators, and parking facilities; • In any room or enclosed area where other people (except for members of the person’s own household or residence) are present when unable to physically distance. • Driving or operating any public transportation or paratransit vehicle, taxi, or private car service or ride-sharing vehicle when passengers are present. When no passengers are present, face coverings are strongly recommended. • While outdoors in public spaces when maintaining a physical distance of six feet from persons who are not members of the same household or residence is not feasible. The following individuals are exempt from wearing a face covering: * Children aged two and under; * Persons with a medical, mental health, or developmental disability that prevents wearing a face covering; * Persons who are hearing impaired, or communicating with a person who is hearing impaired, where the ability to see the mouth is essential for communication; * Persons for whom wearing a face covering would create a risk to the person related to their work, as determined by local, state, or federal regulators or workplace safety guidelines. * Persons who are obtaining a service involving the nose or face for which temporary removal of the face covering is necessary to perform the service; * Persons who are seated at a restaurant or other establishment that offers food or beverage service, while they are eating or drinking, provided that they are able to maintain a distance of at least six feet away from persons who are not members of the same household or residence; * Persons who are engaged in outdoor work or recreation such as swimming, walking, hiking, bicycling, or running, when alone or with household members, and when they are able to maintain a distance of at least six feet from others; * Persons who are incarcerated. Prisons and jails, as part of their mitigation plans, will have specific guidance on the wearing of face coverings of masks for both inmates and staff.

Lives and Statues
by Abraham Entin
Relocating With The Julian News
Carl and Ingrid Englund uutside their new place in Upplands Väsby near Stockholm with the Julian News in hand.
Two letters appeared in my local newspaper on Saturday, in response to the recent protests around the African American experience in the United States. The first was a plaintive reminder that "all lives matter," and that "To say Black lives matter is to once more suggest that there is a difference between Black lives and other lives. That, I think, is the problem... "The Pledge of Allegiance ends with the words "with Liberty and Justice for All." The reality of the Black experience in the United States is that this is a lie. Black Americans (and people of Color more broadly) have not been and are still not fully included in that "All." On the contrary. They have been shown, over and over again, that they and their lives do not have the value or importance implied by these stirring words of the Pledge. White people have a better chance of being included--although less and less as power and money become more and more concentrated in fewer and fewer hands. Still, the overwhelming reality of the Black experience has been invisibility and systemic neglect and exploitation. The demand that "Black Lives Matter" is a demand to be included in the "all" of our Pledge of Allegiance. The second letter is an attack on the "masked marauders" and "uneducated miscreants" who destroy or vandalize statues and compares them to those who would cast doubt on the Holocaust and destroy history. We have, of course, heard this from the President of the United States, both in reference to these statues as well as the attempt to rename military bases named after Confederate generals. I would ask the writer (as well as the President) to show me a country that puts up memorials to traitors or names military sites for people who have fought against the country? Where is Benedict Arnold National Park, or a monument to the brave Kamikaze pilots who served so gallantly in World War II? Is there a memorial to the Luftwaffe in the middle of London to commemorate their great work during the Blitz? Why do we have these monuments to Confederate "heroes" who fought against their country? The answer, as those who know history know, is that these statues served as visual "object lessons" from their fellow citizens nostalgic for a past in which Black people were slaves. They were erected as part of a systemic attempt (named Jim Crow) to reimpose those conditions of slavery. They were powerful reminders to Black people of their exclusion from the "All" of the Pledge--just as the lynching of Black veterans on their return from service with an expectation of equality was a reminder that "Liberty and Justice" are not for everyone. The tearing down of those statues and a renaming of the bases is not an attempt to "erase history" but a call to build a future that includes everyone, a future when we can say "All lives matter" and it means just that, and Liberty and Justice are indeed for All. Abraham Entin is a life-long activist for nonviolent social change, beginning in 1962 with the Civil Rights Movement. His Memoir, Living on the Fringe, was published by SteinerBooks in 2018.

From The Supervisor’s Desk
Notes from Supervisor Dianne Jacob
Our great outdoors: A huge thank you to San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer and Poway Mayor Steve Vaus for spearheading talks that led to the recent reopening of several lakes and reservoirs. The mayors and others crafted a city-county costsharing agreement that made the re-openings possible. These city-owned attractions are regional treasures that can again be enjoyed by those who love boating and fishing, or just anyone who enjoys our great outdoors. El Capitan and Upper Otay reservoirs were among the first to reopen. Helping hand: At my urging, the county recently initiated a lowinterest loan program for mom-and-pop shops and other small businesses in San Diego County’s unincorporated area. Businesses hit by COVID-related losses, and with 50 employees or less, have been allowed to seek loans of $5,500 to $50,000. For more information, go to us.accion.org/covidrelief. The sooner these businesses can get some relief, the sooner they can get on the road to recovery. In the Zone: With summer temperatures bearing down, several county Cool Zones are back in business, including in Spring Valley, Potrero, Santa Ysabel and Lakeside. These spots are for seniors and others who may not have access to air conditioning and are looking to beat the heat. Locations include community centers and libraries. They are open from noon to 5 p.m., Monday to Friday. Face coverings and other COVID-related safety measures are in place. For more information, visit www.CoolZones.org. The county created the Cool Zone program in 2001 at my recommendation. COVID-19: To keep up with the latest local developments regarding the pandemic, go to www.coronavirus-sd.com. Have questions, suggestions or feedback about your county government? Call me at 619-531-5522 or email dianne.jacob@ sdcounty.ca.gov. Stay safe and healthy! Dianne

5 Tips For Bringing A New Pet Home (Family Features) Bringing a pet home for the first time - even if you already have other pets - can be an exciting moment. However, it's important to involve the whole family in discussing whether your family will foster or adopt, and what each family member's responsibilities with the new pet will be. It also takes preparation and patience to ensure a smooth transition. Regardless of the type of companion you're welcoming into your home, adjusting to a new environment can be overwhelming and could lead to anxiety. Because dogs and cats do not communicate like humans, they often express anxiety by misbehaving, which makes it important to be willing to spend the first several days bonding with your pet and forming good habits. Visit your local shelter or animal welfare organization to complete necessary forms and background check, and consider this advice from the experts at PetSmart to help set you and your new furry friend up for a successful homecoming. Introduce Your Pets When bringing a new pet into the family, set up a proper introduction with any current pets to help make the transition easier. For dogs, schedule the initial meeting at a neutral environment outside of your home. Cats typically need a more gradual introduction to get comfortable. Start by keeping your felines in separate rooms with their continued on page 11

The Covid-19 “shut down” through out the country has impacted the Native Communities around the country. Started and Co-Founded by Dan Simonds, curently of Bozeman, Montana and born and raised in Norwich, CT. he is a member of the Simonds Clan that dates back to the 1858+prior Mashantucket Pequot Census. He started a facebook group to facilitate native peoples who because of the Covid-19 pandemic or for whatever reason could not attand a traditional Pow Wow, many of which had been postponed, rescheduled or canceled. The idea was to provide a space to interact and share their Pow Wow experiences. It has become a place to celebrate their culture, by showcasing their talents, through dance, song, artistry and experience. There are hundreds of videos from tribes throughout the country available for viewing. Dan has also created a space for the sale of native produced items, including jewelry, painting, clothing and other items that could be of interest. The whole project has taken off with over 200,000 members of the group. The first powwow was held on the weekend of March 21-22. The second was held the next weekend and focused on Native storytelling. One man shared a story about a young Native man who went on his first war party but was killed by

He found that his son hadn’t been allowed to pass into the spirit world because his family was grieving for him too much. So when his father woke up, he told his wife it was time to let their son’s spirit go. “For everybody who’s losing their loved ones to the coronavirus or to natural causes, I really hope this video may comfort you,” the young man who posted the video said. “We know as Indian people, we know this as the circle of life.” The “social distancing powwow may be one of the few places on facebook one can escape the political upheval that seems to have invaded other groups.

• On June 27, 1939, one of the most famous scenes in movie history is filmed -- Rhett Butler and Scarlett O'Hara parting in "Gone with the Wind." Director Victor Fleming also shot the scene using the alternate line, "Frankly, my dear, I just don't care," in case the film censors objected to the word "damn." The censors approved the movie but fined producer David O. Selznick $5,000 for including the curse. • On June 22, 1944, President Franklin Roosevelt signs the G.I. Bill, giving returning World War II veterans a range of benefits, including money for college tuition, living expenses and books. • On June 26, 1959, the St. Lawrence Seaway is officially opened, creating a navigational channel from the Atlantic Ocean to Duluth, Minnesota. The system of canals, locks and dredged waterways extends for nearly 2,500 miles. • On June 28, 1969, a police raid of the Stonewall Inn, a popular gay club in New York's Greenwich Village, turns violent as patrons and local sympathizers begin rioting against the police and throwing bottles. It's now remembered as one of history's first major protests for LGBT rights. • On June 23, 1972, Title IX of the education amendments of 1972 is enacted into law. Title IX prohibits federally funded educational institutions from discriminating against students or employees based on sex in all areas, including athletics. • On June 24, 1993, Yale professor David Gelernter is seriously injured when an envelope explodes in his hands. That bombing, along with 14 others since 1978 that killed three people and injured 23 others, was eventually linked to Theodore Kaczynski, the Unabomber. • On June 25, 2009, Michael Jackson, one of the most successful entertainers in history, dies at age 50 at his home in California. Jackson suffered cardiac arrest caused by a fatal combination of prescription drugs given to him by his personal doctor. © 2020 Hearst Communications, Inc. All Rights Reserved

My Thoughts by Michele Harvey
Richard John “Happy” Gilmore June 17, 1944 - April 26, 2020
In 2014 we had to cancel the Fourth of July Parade because of fire. This years parade got called off because of Corona Virus and Covid-19. We are reruning the column Michele wrote after the “Banner Fire” MjH
No Parade, No Problem by Kiki Skagen Munshi
Go, Go Gophers This week has been spent in poisoning gophers, trapping ground squirrels and generally creating mayhem in the local animal world. Bleeding hearts and city people often object to such actions but if you see young fruit trees you’ve spent time, money and care on die because of gophers….or eggs disappear from hens’ nests before you can get to them--the perspective can be very different. Of course, you may argue that trees aren’t worth the life of a gopher. Perhaps we should trap the little dears and rehome them in someone else’s yard. Go right ahead. You are welcome to come here and do it for me, just don’t use my name if you’re caught. Then there are the ground squirrels—why shouldn’t we share eggs with them? Perhaps because their idea of sharing doesn’t match mine. Last year we trapped (and killed) 57 ground squirrels….or maybe it was 87, we forget. You may call it murder; we call it the balance of nature. If you add up the past 12 years the done-away-with ground squirrels would probably balance us on the other end of a teeter totter. If they didn’t fall off which hundreds of ground squirrels would do, it being hard to stack even dead ground squirrels that high… For all of that, there are still lots of ground squirrels. The cats are also helpful with mice and ground squirrels near the house and in the chicken coop. These are two locations where we don’t use poison and, in any case, the cats are smart enough not to eat poisoned animals on the Persian rug under the dining room table. Under the dining room table unless, of course, they are caught before they devour them. Sometimes they eat them in the entryway. We know because there is one piece of entrail the cats don’t like; otherwise everything disappears, saving both catfood and the garden in one fell swoop. The ground squirrels are annoying but the gophers are the real menace. They have even damaged a grown pear tree this year—our favorite pear tree, to be exact. They have killed a baby pomegranate, a baby apple, and a small medlar (don’t ask, part of The Kid’s medieval cooking craze) as well as an apricot. Gopher poison here we come.
Four Great Reads: Fictional Pandemic All Too Real; Making America Sacred Again; An Immigration Story; Disappearing Jets “Viral” by Kevin E. Ready (NAPSI)—A story of hope and the indomitable will of the human spirit. This is a popular fiction saga of a pandemic—written well before the COVID-19 virus was ever heard of—and the actions taken by people around the world to fight it. The story is told from the viewpoint of several key characters in various countries and walks of life. It includes realistic descriptions of the disease and heartfelt substories of the characters as they deal with the pandemic. A woman of science must step up and become a leader and, hopefully, a savior. A first responder finds himself fighting for the lives of thousands. Valiant medical workers face nearimpossible tasks while risking their very lives. Sounds only too real.

sacred America, it is important to piece together the forgotten fragments of history currently keeping the country divided. Just as a traditional Native American potter begins a new pot with shards of old pots, “Original Politics” re-constellates the nation as a whole out of the seemingly disparate shards from its origins. Perhaps the most significant forgotten piece is the profound effect Native America had on the founding values of this nation. “Original Politics” demonstrates how the best aspects of America’s founding vision were inspired from Native American cultures: natural rights, liberty, and egalitarian justice. Native America has inspired bringing all the world’s peoples together on one soil in a harmonious cultural mosaic of unity and diversity.

July 3, 2014 was the scariest day of our summer so far. The “Banner Fire” started a bit after 10:00 am about half way down Banner Grade and it immediately chimneyed (zoomed) up toward Whispering Pines and Kentwood. While the fi remen got the fi re under control, for safety reasons the California Highway Patrol cancelled our 21st annual Independence Day parade. Though many thought this was a sad day in Julian, it wasn’t even close to sad. This was a good decision. I’ve lived through several evacuations when fi res threatened our little community and one of the smartest things a person can do is to stay out of the way of moving fire engines. Our parade brings as many as 5000 visitors each year and that wouldn’t have been a good mix with the fi re engines and other firefighting related equipment that had to drive on our roads and through our town. Add Sheriffs and Highway Patrolmen and that’s just too many emergency vehicles to watch for. As a Main Street shop owner, and a person who has worked in downtown Julian for nearly 30 years, I know how diffi cult it can be for fi re engines to get people to move out of the way when said fi re engines need to move really fast to a destination that is on fi re or soon will be on fire if the firefighters can’t get there very soon. For this reason, our local 4th of July parade was cancelled in 1975 and for fire safety, we didn’t have another parade until the current one was established in 1992 or 1993. The 2nd annual Concert in Pioneer Park also had to be cancelled because it was on the same permit as the parade. I didn’t mind at all when I learned that the concert in the park was also cancelled. Though many people worked very hard to bring these events to Julian, too many events on one day can make each event a little less important. I like the idea of concerts in downtown Julian. But I’d like to see them as their own solitary event, maybe once a month during summer Sunday evenings. After the parade, our local American Legion holds their annual barbecue each 4th of July. This year was their 73rd annual barbecue with live music. I like to support the American Legion events because they are fund raisers. The Legionnaires, the Sons of the Legion and the Legion Auxiliary all raise money to help local organizations and to help veterans. In this little town, if you raise money for a good cause, I’ll do my best to help you. Once the people at the American Legion found out that the parade was cancelled, they got the word out, mostly through lots of postings on facebook the night of July 3rd, that anyone and all were welcome to join their Independence Day Freedom Walk. All were welcome to join them for a “Not a Parade”. In my opinion, this is more in keeping with a small town event celebrating our veterans. At about 10:30 am, led by the American Legion Color Guard, with veterans following in a jeep, and plenty of groups of local people, the “Not a parade” participants walked from the gas station at Main Street and Porter Lane to the American Legion Lincoln Deming Post at the corner of Second Street and Washington. Many were dressed in red, white and blue, both adults and children smiled, laughed and walked, showing their support for our local veterans and for our community. Once they arrived at the American Legion, the Barbecue began. Live music filtered down to Main Street causing people to wander up the hill to join in the fun, to eat a great meal and possibly to win a raffle prize or two. As I watched the people walk by, I was reminded of similar small groups moving down Main Street in other years for other celebrations. When smaller events were official, they were legally permitted and had beauty queens sitting on the back of convertibles, donkeys being led by modern day miners, fl atbed trucks made into decorated floats and tractors driven by their proud owners. We had clowns, 4H students and representatives from local clubs and organizations. Once our official parade and concert events were cancelled, locals rallied to make certain that this day remained a special day. Without an influx of 5000 people, we still had a wonderful day in Julian. Parking was easier to fi nd, sidewalks were easier to walk on, restaurants and pie shops were easier to get into and get service from and shops weren’t as crowded which gave shoppers a chance to see merchandise. Sales were up and so were moods. I know how hard all of our volunteer groups work and I think an Independence Day parade is a good way to celebrate our freedoms and the people who have fought the most for our way of life. However I believe that we should quit growing our parade. I think that we should bring it back to a small parade that truly represents our small town. We had no large parade this year and for most of us that was no problem. As Janice Bina-Smith said, “This will be one 4th of July that we will remember for a long time to come.” These are my thoughts from six years ago. It’s 1900, and 16-year-old Helen comes alone across the Atlantic from a village in Lithuania, fleeing terrible antiSemitism and persecution. She arrives at Ellis Island, and settles on the Lower East Side. She finds a job and devotes herself to bringing the rest of her family to the New World. A few at a time, Helen’s family members arrive. Each goes to work and contributes to bringing over their remaining beloved ones. Helen meanwhile, falls in love with a man who introduces her to a different New York—of wonder, beauty and possibility.

Born June 17, 1944, passed away April 26, 2020. Left behind were his daughter Cynthia and grandsons Jesse, Justin and Jeremy. Richard moved to Julian in the mid 1990's. He loved hiking, starlight mints, tequila sunrise's, and pool tournaments at the legion. He loved helping others and would be there for his friends at the drop of a hat. More than anything he loved his family. Richard is no longer with us, but his laugh, smile and memories will live on forever. Rest in peace Dad.
Energy Matters
Residential Solar + Battery Storage Solutions Protect Against Utility Outages (NAPSI)—The market for energy storage is growing—and with good reason. With power disruptions from electrical utilities driven by wildfires, storms, hurricanes and the continued decay of the power grid across the country, homeowners have turned to new solutions to keep the lights on. At the center of the upswing in interest, solar power continues to rank highly with energy-conscious homeowners nationwide. However, as residents in California have discovered through Public Safety Power Shutoffs in 2019, their current photovoltaic (PV) solar systems do not power their homes during utility outages, primarily because safety shut-off protocols are designed into the systems to protect utility workers. This has boosted the appeal of battery-based energy storage and software systems that can harness the sunlight and store it for later use. The Public Safety Power Shutoffs were put in place to mitigate wildfire risks that could be caused by sparking power transmission lines when high winds and dry conditions create dangerous circumstances. The state of California recently earmarked $675 million under a new round of its Self Generation Incentive Program (SGIP), one of the first state-level incentives for battery energy storage in the country. The program—which now has a cumulative historic value of over $1 billion—has helped California lead the nation in residential energy storage. The SGIP Equity Resilience incentive program could essentially offset the entire cost of a battery storage system by providing up to $1/watt of backup power for qualified homeowners. Hurricanes on the Atlantic and Gulf coasts also have inspired many homeowners to consider battery storage as an addition to their solar power systems or to add natural gas or propane-powered home backup generators in place of or in addition to the solar assets. This demand has helped backup generator giant Generac move into the clean energy arena with its PWRcell Storage System, which is considered an ideal solution for resilience to utility grid outages continued on page 10

many other men who are “fathers of the heart,” if not actual fathers, and they also should be celebrated on Father’s Day. If you’ve ever wondered how Father’s Day got its start, we have Sonora Louise Smart Dodd to thank. When Sonora was 16 years
old, her father became a widower and was left to raise Dodd and her five younger brothers alone. In 1909, Dodd was listening to a Mother’s Day sermon at church when she realized the need for a day to celebrate fathers, especially her own. Sonora started a petition to celebrate the first Father’s Day in early June to coincide with her father’s birthday. Unfortunately, only two people signed up. Finally, after moving to a date later in the month, Sonora was able to convince several churches to participate. The first Father’s Day celebration was held in Spokane, Washington. Families honored fathers by wearing roses -- red for those still alive, and white for those who were deceased. The city’s mayor and even the state’s governor issued Father’s Day proclamations to commemorate the occasion. Not satisfied with just a local celebration, Sonora spent decades traveling around the United States to campaign for a national holiday. Despite Sonora’s enthusiastic efforts, Father’s Day wasn’t nationally recognized until 1972. continued on page 11

Folk Art
Folk art, by definition, is a homemade or handmade piece by an untrained artist. It can be as large as a huge sculpture of found pieces of metal or as small as a peach pit carved and made into a pendant. A realistic duck decoy, a quilt with original designs or a carved wooden bust of a president can also be folk art. Women often made needlework pieces to use that are collected today as vintage folk art. A 33- by 55-inch crocheted flag was sold at a Garth's auction in Ohio recently. It was made of crepe paper and signed by Meta Schmitt of Omaha about 1936. The 48-star flag was probably made to display at a patriotic
Would you have kept a crocheted crepe paper flag for more than 80 years? An Oklahoma woman, probably a collector, made the flag, and her family saved it until last year when they realized it might be valuable. They sold it at auction for $344. Unique vintage pieces are often of interest and will sell for a good price. gathering, like a Fourth of July or a "Welcome Home Soldier" party. After the event, she must have carefully stored it in a dry, dark place away from newspaper ink or loose colored crepe paper that might bleed. With the flag was a 90-inch-long pole painted silver to look like a metal pole. It must have been stored with the
flag. Collectors learn the hard way that parts of a set or a combination of parts often get misplaced when moved around in storage areas. Boxes or wrapping must be marked or labeled on the outside. If there is a special history or story, such as who made it and when it was used, write it down and put it in the box or tape it to the wrapping. Family photos of the party with the flag also will add to a selling price. Meta's paper flag sold for $344. She probably would have been pleasantly surprised. *** Q: My felt Batman pennant is marked "National Periodical Publications Inc." from 1966. It pictures Batman and Robin swinging into action and is in good condition. I'm wondering how much it is worth. A: Batman and Robin are characters created by Bob Kane. Batman first appeared as "BatMan" in a 1939 issue of "Detective
Comics." The first Batman comic book was published in 1940.

Are you thinking about camping this summer? Many families will go to their local campgrounds and parks. Some campgrounds are in the woods like the famous Smoky Mountains and some are on flatter parcels of land oceanside. Lots of families will build a “tent” to camp in their own home or will put up a tent in their backyard at some point this year. Whatever you choose, have fun!

Who doesn’t love to camp? Can you guess how many people go camping each year? Millions! In fact, nearly 80 million American households head out and camp every year, according to the 2019 KOA North American Camping Report. Families enjoy camping in cabins, yurts, RVs and tents, but tents are the most popular shelter. In the summer you may be fortunate enough to travel to a campground in a lovely park in the woods or even by a seashore or lake. You might even get to stay over in a place like the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, in North Carolina and Tennessee, which attracts more than 12 million visitors a year. But, even if you are sticking closer to home, camping can be a fun, meaningful experience right in your yard or even inside your home. Why bother to set up camp at home? Well, it’s a great family bonding activity and an important learning exercise. Parents need to guide the kids to some degree, but the goal is for children to take part in discussing, planning, coordinating and helping with the activities. They will love it, and it will keep them busy for at least a few days! Here are six ideas for brainstorming a plan that will lead to a gratifying family camping experience: • Gear up: Gather the basics, such as a tent and sleeping bag, foam or inflatable pads, etc. Make a point to assemble a basic First Aid Kit (kids should help to reinforce safety). • Firm up a plan: Make a list of things you’ll want as you sleep out under the stars, such as snacks, playing cards, flashlights and comic books (this will limit the in-and-out, I-forgot factor). • Study the skies: Whether you have a telescope or not, build in time to lay on a blanket and look at the moon, stars, constellations, or maybe even the aurora borealis (northern lights). • Capture moments: Use a camera or cell phone to catalog your activities, as well as plants, flowers, wildlife, birds and bugs you see (create a photo album later). • Plan meals: Combine the tenting with a cookout, with hot dogs and beans, and maybe s’mores (marshmallow and chocolate filled graham crackers) or just pack sandwiches. Keep plenty of cold drinks in a cooler. • Pick a few activities: You might be able to take a sundown hike before settling down for guitar playing and singing, handshadow play on tent walls, or storytelling time (save this for last so the kids drift off to sleep). Why not get started right now? Gather your family and start your own list of home-camping ideas. You’ll be on your way to a great family camping adventure – no matter where you decide to do it. One final bit of advice: stick with the plan, rain or shine. The is nothing like the sound of gentle rain pattering on the tent sides as you share stories or read comic books by flashlight. Great news: Reading Club Fun is teaming up with award-winning comic book artist Matt Ryan of Connecticut to offer FREE digital copies of his adventure comic book “Chip n’ Fish.” You can download the comic to your digital device or print it out (Act now, supplies limited).

Earlier this year, this column raised the alarm over the resurgence in the use of “pension obligation bonds,” a risky financing method that fell out of favor during the 2008 recession but is now making a comeback. Fortunately, there is more scrutiny on this form of debt financing than in years past, and taxpayers are starting to take a keen interest in whether POBs are in the best interests of their local governments. Citizen awareness and improved oversight will be crucial. To refresh citizens’ understanding of what this is all about, POBs are bonds issued to fund, in whole or in part, the unfunded portion of public pension liabilities by the creation of new debt. It is like paying your Visa bill with your Mastercard. Advocates of this strategy rely on an assumption that the borrowed money from the sale of bonds, when invested with pension assets in higheryielding assets, will achieve a rate of return that is greater than the interest rate owed on the borrowed money, which is paid back over the term of the bonds. A policy reflected in the California Constitution since the 1800s is that government debt should be approved by the voters. The reason for this is simple — today’s politicians should not be allowed to burden tomorrow’s taxpayers without the consent of those financially obligated for the repayment. Back in 2003, the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association sued the state of California for its attempt to issue a statewide POB without voter approval. HJTA prevailed and the POB bond proposal was invalidated. Despite that victory, taxpayers still find themselves having to go to court to enforce voter approval requirements for pension obligation bonds. In December, the Simi Valley City Council adopted a resolution authorizing a $150 million dollar pension obligation bond to securitize its unfunded accrued actuarial liability (UAAL). This would have constituted new
debt, but the city council did not seek voter approval. Instead, it filed a validation lawsuit asking the Ventura County Court to approve the bond resolution. HJTA on behalf of itself as well as the Ventura County Taxpayers Association joined the litigation to assert the rights of voters to approve or disapprove the bond under the constitutional provision requiring two-thirds approval of new debt. Rather than litigate the voter approval issue, the city agreed to rescind its resolution in a settlement and dismiss its lawsuit. Other cities are considering or have actually pursued POBs without voter approval, including Riverside and Montebello. The Government Finance Officers Association, an association of officials employed by government entities, recommends against issuing any POBs because “the invested POB proceeds might fail to earn more than the interest rate owed over the term of the bonds, leading to increased overall liabilities for the government,” and “issuing taxable debt to fund the pension liability increases the jurisdiction’s bonded debt burden and potentially uses up debt capacity that could be used for other purposes.” In other words, the government could lose money on the deal, become overextended on its credit which would, in turn, “crowd out” the ability to fund essential services. When this column warned back in January about the risks associated with POBs, the concern was about a potential recession and the economic uncertainties brought on fires, floods, droughts and earthquakes. Little did we know that a global pandemic would make the economic uncertainties of the past seem trivial by comparison. Because of these uncertainties, as well the potential for litigation, governments should avoid any POBs like a virus. *** Jon Coupal is the president of the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association..
• In the 1st century AD, Roman men as well as women used cosmetics -- lightening their skin with powder, applying red pigment to their cheeks, and painting their nails, though you'd hardly want to use their form of nail polish today -- a nasty mixture of pig fat and blood. They also painted their heads to camouflage bald spots! • Princess Leia's "Star Wars" hairdo, which she referred to as "hairy earphones" and a "hair don't," was inspired not by bagels but women of the Mexican Revolution. • Pound cake got its name from its original ingredients: a pound of butter, a pound of eggs, a pound of flour and a pound of sugar. • Beat author William S. Burroughs' novel "Naked Lunch" was supposed to be called "Naked Lust." He decided to change the title after fellow Beat writer Jack Kerouac mispronounced the original one. • In 2009, 59-year-old Italian neurosurgeon Claudio Vitalae had a heart attack in the middle of performing a brain surgery. He powered through it when he realized his patient would never recover if he stopped, despite the urging of his staff and his chest pains worsening. Half an hour after finishing the surgery, Mr. Vitale had an angioplasty, later telling the press, "I'm not a hero, I only did my duty." • The first documented use of toilet paper dates to 6th century A.D. China. • No U.S. president has ever died in the month of May. • Alcatraz was the only prison to offer its inmates hot showers, but don't make the mistake of thinking that had anything to do with showing kindness to the prisoners. Rather, the assumption was that if they were used to hot shower water, they'd be unable to cope with the frigid waters of the San Francisco Bay and deterred from an escape attempt. *** Thought for the Day: "I cannot teach anybody anything.

Dear EarthTalk: Is there any overlap between the #BlackLivesMatter and Environmental Justice movements?
There certainly is: “Environmental injustice”—defined as the unfair siting of pollution and other environmental ills in proximity to certain groups based on race or income status—is on a list of 12 issues Black Lives Matter (BLM) considers pressing right now as part of its #WhatMatters2020 campaign. “Environmental racism kills. Air pollution and rollbacks to environmental protections and regulations make it hard for black people to breathe,” says Robert Bullard of the non-profit National Black Environmental Justice Network (NBEJN). Sammy Roth reports in the Los Angeles Times that there are many links between ecological degradation and inequality: “Consider water contamination in predominantly black and brown communities, such as Flint, Michigan, where experts say the drinking water crisis was rooted in systemic racism.” She cites a February 2020 Los Angeles Times investigation that found Black, Latino and low-income California residents to be especially likely to live near polluting unplugged oil and gas wells. And many studies show that people of color are more likely than whites to live near power plants, oil refineries and landfills. “In the U.S., the best predictor of whether you live near a hazardous waste site is the color of your skin.” To add insult to injury, climate change is already hitting people of color harder than others in the U.S., a fact not lost on BLM. “We are not saying that white people do not feel the impact of climate change,” BLM activists Patrisse Cullors and Nyeusi Nguvu report in a Guardian op-ed. “We are saying that if you are black then you are more likely to die as a result of it—and, if you survive, are more likely to struggle to replace what was lost and will receive little support in doing so.” What can we do to reduce or eliminate this insidious form of injustice? Activists blame governments as well as corporations for discriminating against racial minorities in deciding where to put pollution sources. Attending local zoning or planning board meetings in your city or town—and speaking up against what’s not right—would be a good start. But, of course, there is more to the story. “While it is clear that discriminatory siting plays a role, other causes may help explain both the behavior of firms and the disparate environmental harms experienced by low-income populations and minorities,” reports Shea Diaz in the Vermont Journal of Environmental Law. “Regulators may enforce environmental laws and regulations unequally, affected communities may lack political power, and market dynamics may drive both businesses and residents to low-cost real estate.” According to Diaz, it’s important to understand the contribution of each of these to environmental injustice because they may call for different policy responses. And only when a majority of elected officials agree can we begin to enact laws that regulate how governments and companies treat minority and low-income communities.

(StatePoint) As learning has gone virtual to curb the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, educators and parents have been left with a pressing concern: how will this experience impact social and emotional development? The pandemic is having profound effects on children’s mental well-being, their social development, their safety, their privacy, their economic security and beyond,” a policy brief by the United Nations stated. “While children are not the face of this pandemic, its broader impacts on children risk being catastrophic and amongst the most lasting consequences for societies as a whole.” While maintaining progress in core subject areas is imperative, a curriculum that develops leadership skills is equally essential to ensure that emotional development continues virtually. An independent research study commissioned by Lead4Change found that students who completed the Lead4Change Student Leadership Program experienced tangible emotional growth. The program involves lessons in leadership, as well as creating and implementing team projects to meet a need in the community. Those that completed the program experienced significant changes in leadership skills (60 percent of students improved), respect for others (54 percent) and ambition and innovation (53 percent). Programs of this nature can be completed virtually by adapting projects to address current concerns, and they can not only succeed without physical contact, but offer unique challenges that help students to grow as leaders. Students at Mohave High School in Bullhead City, Ariz. reconsidered their project when quarantine began, creating a read-aloud library of developmentally appropriate books for preschoolers. With high schoolers reading preschoolers books and teaching them literacy and social development skills, this resource allowed an early childhood program to continue virtually. “The students developed a ‘can do attitude’ while working collaboratively to adapt to their new normal,” said teacher, Michele Leyendecker. “With so much uncertainty, this project truly gave them purpose.” The “T-Bird Readers” team was awarded Lead4Change’s grand prize, a $10,000 grant for a nonprofit of their choice. In Garner, N.C., students participated in service learning and emerged as community leaders by directly addressing the local impact of the pandemic. The “Corona Relief Crew” collaborated with volunteers and vendors to create and distribute kits with essential food and supplies for the homeless and those in nursing homes who have been severely impacted by the pandemic. “Being an adult leader for the Corona Relief Crew has caused a paradigm shift in how I view youth strength and their ability to lead,” educator Dr. Cleopatra Lacewell shared. “This experience has taught me when students have well-organized plans, identified goals and established team structures, they can then perform as stellar leaders with minimum support.” The Corona Relief Crew was also honored with Lead4Change’s $10,000 grand prize for their initiative. For more information about the Lead4Change Student Leadership Program, visit lead4change.org. While distance learning’s impact on students’ education has been unprecedented, this disruption also has presented a unique opportunity for students to overcome obstacles and grow as leaders. With a service-learning project, students can gain a sense of purpose, lead real change in their local community and maintain a sense of unity that is integral during challenging times. *** I'm very lucky in that I was inspired by science fiction while I was a little kid, and I was interested in science and technology and was encouraged to pursue those interests. — Wil Wheaton
“ Dusty Britches” here along with the “Bobby and the Morning Glow Band”, The “South African Queen”, and “Wilber” the talking horse. There’s a whole lot of bassin goin on. They are throwin swim baits, plastics, and lures to the left and to the right. The rockhoppers are out in force. Some nice trout still being taken, but no limits that I have seen and the “gut barrel gods” are showing a decrease in activity. The pan fish are still on the bite and are very tasty as a fish taco with all the trimmings. On another note, I can’t help but think about Opie Taylor every time I see Ron Howard during an interview, a bit folically challenged these days, but still the apple of “Aunt Bee’s” eye. Eddie Haskle, Wally, and Beaver all seemed to be the center of attention… until the series ended. So, there you have it… that’s the way it is… here in “Flatbush”. Speaking of “Pie”, Don McClean wrote and sang a song about “American Pie” and I am proud to be an American. Our boats are renting out daily now, but only once a day. After the one rental, they are tagged, cleaned, sanitized, and left to sit until the next day’s use. They go fast on the weekends, so please get here early if you want one. No re-rentals during the course of the day at this time. Speaking of days, there are good days and there are bad days. Marlin Parales had a bad day on Wednesday. He was visiting here from Culver City, rented one of our pontoon boats, and promptly took his family out on the water to do a little fishing when his dream day turned into a nightmare after he stuck his hand into their small backpack to get his wife (Christina) her “Denim” jacket to find that one of his kids had taken a “Rapala” lure out of its package. The barb of the treble hook had already been tangled with her jacket and the bottom of the backpack before it buried itself in the second joint of the middle finger of his right hand. We heard him from the bait and tackle shop… and he was still out on the water. When we got to him… the pontoon was, somewhat, docked at the boat ramp. He was doubled over with his hand still in the backpack and not moving. Now, on a normal day this would seem a little odd, but it looked perfectly normal. We weren’t going try to take the hook out… it was too buried in his finger and any movement of the backpack, the jacket, or his hand created a creature-like
scream that made his own kids run away. The easiest route was to cut the hook leaving enough of it exposed for an easy extraction by some emergency room employee. The tool of choice, a pair of dikes. Hook was cut, hand removed, screaming stopped… as easy as slurping gravy off a biscuit. Only thing left was for Marlin to go to the emergency room at Kaiser to get the hook removed… good by to the rest of the day… and leaving to go home the following morning… good by vacation. They were grateful for the treatment and assured us that they would re-visit the pond. The bird watchers are frequenting the lake lately, making their presence known with the lenses that are longer than their respective arms. Deer are in the meadows and the moon has almost completely waned leaving a cast of a thousand, or more, stars to look at during the night. The bullfrogs are still serenading, grackles chirping, geese honking, and ducks quacking… things are returning to normal… somewhat. Fingerling trout are growing, and larger trout are to be set free soon. “Life would be infinitely happier if we were born at the age of eighty and gradually approach eighteen” ...

and a way to significantly lower energy bills by avoiding the utility company’s peak rates. Generac is the only company that offers both battery storage systems and whole home backup generators. Its dealers can provide “touchless virtual quotes” for both systems that let homeowners make the best decision for their specific needs. The PWRcell storage system is an all-in-one platform that offers 8 kilowatts of continuous power and a 10 kW surge capacity to start heavy loads such as 2-ton air conditioners and well pumps, but what sets this apart from other options is its ability to scale up to 17.1 kW of usable capacity. The system is equipped with an energy monitoring technology called PWRview, which offers smart device linkage to track household energy consumption, monitor battery usage and track energy spending and savings. Such residential clean energy solutions bring smart home energy storage and management into the mainstream for homeowners, cutting energy costs and providing protection from electric utility disruptions. As a result, people have more options when deciding where to get their power.

can make the adjustment to new surroundings easier. Create a Schedule Creating a routine for your companion's mealtimes, bathroom breaks and playtime can help make the transition easier on both you and your pet. When building out the schedule, keep in mind that younger
Potato Chips
own litter boxes, but let them see each other periodically through a glass window to get used to sharing the space. Allowing your pets to play with each other's toys can also create familiarity with their new housemate's scent. Pet-Proof Your Home Because new pets can be especially curious and jump onto high surfaces or squeeze into small spaces, ensure clothes, cleaning supplies, electrical wires or cords and other potential hazards are out of reach. Other measures you can take to petproof your home include keeping toilet lids closed, covering vents and latching trash can lids. Also create a pet-friendly space with a bed or another way to divert attention, such as a scratching post for cats. Prepare the Necessities
pets typically need to relieve themselves more often, and puppies and kittens also often require more exercise than older pets. Plan time for daily walks, solo playtime and trips to the park or backyard to play fetch. Keep Your Pet Happy and Healthy While a proper diet and plenty of exercise can go a long way toward keeping your pet feeling his or her best, ensure your furry friend looks the part by regularly bathing him or her and maintaining a healthy coat by brushing often with athome grooming tools. It is also important to find a veterinarian who's equipped to handle breedspecific needs and schedule routine checkups to stay on top of vaccines and any potential health concerns. Speak with your foster coordinator to find out about foster-specific requirements.

In 1970, Congress finally passed Joint Resolution 187, which called on citizens to “offer public and private expressions of such day to the abiding love and gratitude which they bear for their fathers.” President Richard Nixon signed the resolution into law two years later. There isn’t enough money in the world to show my father and my husband how much I appreciate the love and care that they’ve given to me and our family.

thyme or poultry seasoning and 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are tender and lightly golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. 3. Add 2 tablespoons of the ketchup and 1 tablespoon of the salsa and cook until most of the moisture has evaporated and the mixture is thick and brick-red colored, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and let the onions cool slightly. Then add them to the beaten eggs and mix to combine. 4. Add the beef to the egg and onion mixture. Break up the meat with a fork or wooden spoon, and then mix to thoroughly combine; you don’t want to see any clumps of beef. Add the panko and gently mix to combine. Stir the meat vigorously with a wooden spoon for about 7 seconds; it will become more homogenous and tackier. 5. Transfer the meat to the prepared baking sheet and shape into a 9-by-5-inch loaf. Mix the remaining ketchup and salsa, the remaining salt and pepper, and the steak sauce together. Smooth sauce mixture over the top of the meatloaf. 6. Bake for 5 minutes, and then reduce the oven temperature to 350 F. Continue to bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the loaf registers 150 F, about 30 to 35 minutes. Allow the meatloaf to rest for 20 minutes before slicing. Serves 6. *** Angela Shelf Medearis is an award-winning children's author, culinary historian and the author of seven cookbooks.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Choosing to work with someone you once thought might have been disloyal is a courageous move. The logical next step is to talk things out so there'll be no reason for raising suspicions again. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Take your time making a decision about a personal or work-related relationship. New facts are still coming in, and you'll want to know the full story before you take a definitive step. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Expect to learn something new about an old problem. This could provide some insight into how the problem began, and why it still defies efforts to find a resolution. Good luck. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) An uneasy work-related relationship can be eased with compromises by both sides. The parties might consider putting the agreedupon changes in writing in case of a future misunderstanding. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Oh, you lucky Felines: Your romantic aspects are in absolutely purrrfect form. Don't be surprised at how especially attentive the ladies and gentlemen in your life are going to be this week. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Looking to prove yourself in a difficult situation is laudable. But try paying more attention to advice from experienced contacts. It could help you avoid time-wasting missteps. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) A business decision seems easy enough to make based on what you know. But this week could bring new facts to light, and you might have to do some heavy rethinking.

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Feeling sure about the steps you expect to take is great. But you may need to share a few dollops of that confidence with those who have some doubts about your plans. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) A sense of well-being dominates much of the week. A slightly depressed mood could set in on the weekend. But seeing family and friends helps shoo it away. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) You appear to be walking your life's path like the sure-footed Goat you are. But someone might feel you could do better. Listen to the advice, but make up your own mind. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) With positive signs growing stronger, Aquarians could find themselves facing choices that are each too good to turn down. Best advice: Go for the one you feel most comfortable with. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Someone you know might need your comfort and wisdom during a particularly difficult period. Your encouraging words help restore selfconfidence and rebuild strength. BORN THIS WEEK: Your kindness to all who need you is always appreciated and sets a fine example for others to follow.
