Oxnard-- Great music, good friends and fun was the highlight at the Oxnard Dance Club Saint Patrick’s Day Dance at the Oxnard Performing Arts Center, March 14.

TTENDEES came dressed in green and spent the evening dancing the night away. The group takes a break at halftime and enjoys a delicious buffet of snacks and cheered on the raffle where people walked away with plenty of goodies.

Club President Ron Rademaker said before he became president, he taught ballroom dancing in Camarillo for two years.

“Before that, I taught at the Elks Lodge in Canoga Park and I have been teaching here an hour before each dance for the last eight years,” he said. “I started ballroom dancing in college a long time ago and I found out I loved it. Two of my buddies and I started together.

One of my buddies now lives in San Diego, and he not only does all the ballroom dances, but he does all the folk dances.”

He recently debuted a new teaching style, and he focuses on one to seven basic simple steps that are used for the foxtrot, waltz, mamba and rumba.

“By learning these seven steps, you can dance these four different dances,” he said. “Nobody has ever taught it that way.”

Ron said the health benefits for seniors are terrific.

“Not only are you moving around, which is good aerobics, but you also have to use your brain so you can think about the steps, which is good for your brain.

It’s been proven that ballroom dancing is one of the best things

that seniors can do.”

Most people have an innate sense of wanting to do something to music, he said, and once you start dancing, people find the activity rewarding.

“You’re moving to music, they’re having a great social time with people, and where else can you walk up to a strange woman, put your arms around her and for three minutes, talk, dance and hold her and it’s all legitimate. That didn’t start until they invented the waltz in 1830.”

Club Secretary Charlette Regnard said she’s been part of the club for 15 years, but said the club

started in 1920.

“We have instructions from 6:30 to 7:30 and live bands until 9:45 p.m.,” she said. “This is strictly for seniors ages 50 and up.”

She said the group is friendly and has known everyone for years.

“We socialize and dance,” she said. “I like the tango, because it is classical dancing more than the hip-hop stuff, and the tango is it.”

Charlette loves the social and activity associated with the club.

“It keeps you busy,” she said.

“For me, to put this together, it takes time and a little bit of knowledge about how to run a n Dance Club, see page 6

Oxnard— The Oxnard City Council held a pre-application review of the East Village Development Project, March 19, located at the northeast corner of Rose Avenue and Camino Del Sol. The applicant wanted comments and feedback from the council that includes a review of the development site map and preliminary comments for the master planning of the 107-acre project site.

The area will have parks, a high school, residential homes, commercial development, and a civic center act agreement.

Planning Department Principal Planner Doug Spondello told the council that East Village is proposed by Parkstone Companies and the Oxnard Union High School District.

He pointed out the item is not an application, but a conceptual plan for future development.

“The project was presented previously to the city council on Dec. 18, and the developer has updated the proposal to align with the council, the comments that were made and now requests a follow-up review on three specific topics,” he said.

He wanted feedback on the project’s density and land-use design, the public use of Oxnard Union High School Facilities, n High School, see page 2

Kimberly Chavez led a sacred life

By Chris Frost chris@tricountysentry.com Oxnard-- Members of the community gathered at the Oxnard High School Performing Arts Center, March 16, to bid a tearful farewell to Kimberly (Kimmie) Chavez who died shortly after her third birthday when her biological mother, Mayra Chavez murdered her.

Mayra was convicted of second-degree murder.

Step Parents Karen and Kevin Rogers, along with their children, Braden, Lilah, and Sofie all said they would make sure Kimmie’s life matters.

Kay said he looked like he saw memories inside his head

Jeff said he was into a little bit of everything, whether it was legitimate or not.

“After about an hour of this, I thought this guy was pretty cool and special,” he said. “My dad showed me the pictures and told me the story, and I felt like I knew him.”

He felt the same way about Kimberly because of the photographs and stories he gathered during the investigation.

Warrant search uncovers chop shop Oxnard-- On March 6, 2019, at approximately 4:30 a.m., investigators from the Oxnard Police Department Violent Crimes Unit, with the assistance of the Oxnard Police Department Special Weapons and Tactics Team (SWAT), served a search warrant in the 800 block of Trinidad Way. The search warrant was about a shooting that occurred on Feb.17, 2019, at 6:14 p.m. in the 3100 block of Merced Place. In that incident, the victim sustained a gunshot wound to his arm.

During the service of the search warrant, a 16-year-old Oxnard resident, who had been identified as one of the suspects in the shooting, was contacted and taken into custody. He was later arrested for assault with a deadly weapon (firearm) as well as a gang enhancement.

During the subsequent search, police located and seized a firearm. The investigation is still ongoing, and additional arrests are expected.

Raul Botello arrested for robbing Jack in the Box Oxnard-- On Feb. 2, 2019, at approximately 11:17 p.m., officers from the Oxnard Police Department responded to an armed robbery at the Jack in the Box restaurant located at 960 N. Ventura Road.

According to witnesses, a suspect armed with a knife entered the business and stole an undisclosed amount of money before fleeing the scene.

Investigators from the Oxnard Police Department Violent Crimes Unit investigated the case. During the investigation, investigators were contacted by the Ventura County Sheriff ’s Office regarding a burglary that occurred at another Jack in the Box restaurant in the City of Camarillo.

Believing the cases were possibly related, investigators from both agencies worked together to identify a suspect.

During the investigation, the suspect was identified as Raul Botello, a 19-yearold City of Oxnard resident. On March 15, 2019, at approximately noon, Botello was arrested and charged for the robbery that occurred on Feb. 2, 2019.

At the time of his arrest, Botello was already in custody for the burglary that happened in the City of Camarillo. The robbery investigation is still ongoing.

Public Works And Transportation Committee Endorses Transit Center Contract

By Chris Frost chris@tricountysentry.com Oxnard-- The Public Works and Transportation Committee for the City of Oxnard recommended approving the contract with Professional Security Consultants, (PSC), for the transit center at 201 E. Fourth Street, March 12.

The contract will not exceed $691,502.

Community Development Director Jeff Lambert said the city went through a process to seek a new bidder for the Oxnard Transit Center in Oct. 2018, and they received one bidder, PSC, that already provides service in the downtown area.

“What’s before you is a threeyear contract that expires in April 2022,” he said. “The hourly rate at the beginning of the contract will stay the same as it is today.”

The hourly rate for the security guards will be $24.62 per hour.

Lambert said there are built-in escalators throughout the contract and the fund balance for the rest

of the fiscal year $57,626, will come from fund 213, and the city has other funding sources for the rest of the contract, including the Transportation Development Act. “PSC already provides security services downtown, and they are partners for our security,” he said.

“Some examples are the Oxnard Public Library and Service Center, the Del Norte Regional Recycling and Transfer Center and other facilities we have in the City of

Oxnard.” In committee comments, Mayor Tim Flynn said he understands the general fund does not fund the agreement, but the group should always be concerned about the money. “I’ve always had these issues about security contracts,” he said. “In the advent of cameras, high definition security cameras that can be anywhere.”

Beyond Oxnard, he pointed to Great Britain and totalitarian regimes that “unfortunately” use cameras to spy on people.

“Having cameras in these places; could it possibly negate the need for security,” he asked. “I think, perhaps, in some areas, maybe yes.”

He cited the water yard as an example.

“We have somebody there at the gate who oversees people coming in-and-out,” Flynn said.

“Maybe at the transportation center, there is so much traffic and so much history of so many problems, that we have to have security. When we look at the dollar amounts, committee members, I am trying to be fiscally responsible

and do we have to have security guards in this instance, one during certain hours and during peak times, two security guards at an enormous cost on an annual basis, $691,000 over a three-year period.”

Flynn asked Committee Member and former police officer Bryan MacDonald for his opinion on the matter, and MacDonald disagreed with the mayor.

“I was in Santa Barbara for another committee I sit on, and the homeless issue there is as bad, if not worse than it is here,” he said. “They are having particular problems at their Amtrak station in Santa Barbara. I am not trying to vilify or criminalize them, but there are rules in society that everyone needs to abide by, including homeless folks and non-homeless folks.”

MacDonald received pictures of people sleeping on the sidewalk, which he understands, but when they leave, they leave all their stuff there, like garbage that should be thrown in the trash can.

pursuant to a civic center act agreement, and the overall parks and open space concept.

“The 2030 general plan designation on the site is an urban village, and that includes a variety of uses, like low to medium residential, park space, and general commercial,” he said. “The northeast community-specific plans include low-density residential and neighborhood commercial development on the site.”

The December update included 592 residential units, including 62 single-family homes, he said, and the density ranged from 8.5 to 30 units per acre.

“A 21,000 commercial center was located at the southwest corner of the lot,” he said. “The proposed high school was for 2,300 students, and also offered 14.2 acres of playfields and sports facilities to the city through a joint-use agreement. A total of 5.6 acres of public parks and open space was spread out across planning areas one and three.”

The revised pre-application includes three planning areas, he said, that generally matches the boundaries of the previous proposal.

Planning area A has been expanded to include 750 to 900 residential units, and no singlefamily development is proposed,” Spondello said. “The commercial center has also been relocated to the

Tri County Sentry (March 22, 2019) F.indd 2

northeast corner of this property at Rose Avenue and Cesar Chavez. To the east of this site, a 5.4-acre public park is proposed as an addition to the existing East Village Park, and that brings the total size of that park to 11.4 acres.”

Additionally, he said 3.1 acres of paseos and enhanced street frontage is proposed as an internal linkage across the urban village.

"Planning area B now includes a 2,500-student high school with more capacity than before, as well as 23-acres of open space, recreational facilities and parking that are proposed to be accessible to the public and organized groups according to a civic center act agreement,” he said. ”These amenities include a variety of courts and fields, plus the aquatic facility.”

Spondello said the civic center act allows the use of the facilities and grounds as a civic center and the district can charge the user a fee, but it may not exceed the school district’s cost for maintenance or site restoration.

“Alternatively, the joint-use agreement previously proposed, involved an up-front payment by the city or the community facilities district for initial development costs, as well as reoccurring payments for maintenance,” he said. “The civic center agreement proposes no upfront or ongoing costs to the city if the individual sports teams or other

groups reserving these facilities would be required to reimburse the district, but only for expenses associated with that use. The school district has an extensive history of operating facilities, according to the Spondello, and said the group is proposing 50 to 200 affordable multi-family housing units that represent 17 to 27 percent of the overall project.

“District C also includes a oneacre park designed around the Maulhardt Farmhouse, as well as two acres of paseos and street frontage,” he said.

Entitlements needed to develop the project include a general plan amendment, a specific planning zone change subdivision map, development entitlements, and an accompanying environmental review.

“The project now includes 6.4 acres of parks, 5.4 at East Village Park and 1 acre at the farmhouse,” he said. “There are 5.5 acres of enhanced street frontages, and paseos provided within the project, in addition to the 20.3 acres of school district facilities, pursuant to the civic center agreement.”

Taken together, Spondello said there are 32.2 acres of park space within the development.

The developer proposes that it’s an adequate alternative to the 30acre park identified in the 2030 general plan.

Assistant Superintendent of Business Services for the Oxnard Union High School District Jeffrey Weinstein told the council that he is in charge of building the new high school.

His primary function means providing a safe school environment and a safe working environment for employees while providing a safe environment and educational outcomes that serve the communities around the schools in a fiscally safe manner.

“Currently, our situation is we have seven comprehensive high schools, all of which are either at capacity or over capacity,” he said.

“Three of our comprehensive high schools are in the Oxnard area and are over capacity by 1,600 students, and these students will be allowed to transfer to the new high school, and we are looking to mitigate this overage by building the new high school.”

He pointed out the Oxnard school district is one of the few that is growing in Ventura County which is projected for the next five years.

“This growth is going to be over 500 students in the next five years,” he said. “We get these numbers from our feeder schools, and we also know about the housing developments in the surrounding areas.

In June 2018, he said the area stakeholders approved a $350 million bond to mitigate the

overcrowding and build the stateof-the-art school with 270,000 new square feet of construction.

“It will have 47-acres, 735 parking space capacity, full athletic venues, and 93 teaching stations for our education,” Weinstein said.

“Part of our athletic venues will be soccer, track-and-field, football, baseball fields, softball fields, and an aquatic center. Those are our outdoor venues.”

On the inside, he said the new high school would have a gymnasium and a performing arts center with 450 seats.

One unique part of the Oxnard Union High School District, he said, is it offers, career education programs, academic programs, and career education pathways at all seven comprehensive high schools.

“These pathways are numerous, and the high schools can offer all these pathways,” Weinstein said.

“One of the things we have is an inter-district transfer policy the board has put in place, which allows any student a transfer to any high school if their home high school does not have the education career pathway or educational program they would like to study. We are also one of the few high schools that offer transportation from any of these high schools to the high school they would like to attend.”

NEWS Oxnard Policies and Procedure Manual Slated for More Tweaks

By Chris Frost chris@tricountysentry.com Oxnard-- Part Two of the policies and procedures manual discussion on March 12, continues with a definition of an action item, which Committee Chair Tim Flynn said means an item is agenized and action is required by the body.

“For example, sometimes it’s received, and the council requires file and no action, then other times, it is providing direction,” he said.

In that instance, he said the staff does a good job.

“It used to happen, and I think this is where Committee Member Perello is coming from,” Flynn said.

“There would be direction given by the council, and it would be “reinterpreted” by the city manager and the staff once the council meeting was over. It was controversial, and I think Councilman Perello probably remembers that. But that was a bygone era and I think it’s appropriate that in some cases we do take votes, and in other instances, it is appropriate that we don’t. We can always revisit that, Councilman Perello.”

As chairman, Flynn said he could clarify an issue.

“That’s another thing I can always do, or I can say there is a consensus, I can repeat this,” he said. “The council wants this looked into further, then brought back in a timely manner, that’s the consensus, and if anybody disputes that, then we can go forward.”

Sometimes, he said the council multi-tasks and gets asked for a vote.

“Sometimes, you have a council member say, what it we are voting on is?” he said. “I think it is a fluid process and we will re-visit that, but I think it’s the chair’s job that if there is direction to the staff, that it be made clear what that is once there is a consensus. The chair needs to reiterate what that consensus is, so it’s clear what the staff should do.”

Perello said he understands Flynn’s point.

“I would like to remind everyone in the room that elections and votes have consequences, so that’s why I think

we should go on record with a vote,” he said. “That could be a difference of opinion.”City Attorney Stephen Fischer said he would review the language in the Brown Act to make sure it is consistent with the current language.

“Maybe we acknowledge in this procedural manual that such roll call votes, or unanimous consent, shall be recorded in the minutes,” he said.

Under liability, Perello said something needs to be added since a council member is on their own if they are charged with something, although they can request reimbursement for their expenses if they are found innocent.

“I think it needs to state that in there,” he said. “Until you realize that, you don’t realize how hanging out the nude you are on this particular point.

You can be 100 percent right, and then somebody accuses you of something, the city does not defend you, and you are on your own.”

Fischer said that is circumstantial, depending on what is at issue.

“The purpose of this procedural manual; it wasn’t to turn this into a comprehensive dissertation on all aspects of laws affecting the council,” he said. “It’s a policy issue on how far the council wishes to go and how far the committee suggests the council will go.”

Perello said he doubts the three newest council members understand what can happen if someone makes an accusation and they have to incur costs to protect themselves.

“Then, they have to, if they want, come back and ask for reimbursement and the reimbursement is only given if the majority of the council sees fit,” he said. “I did not do that in my case, but I want the rest of the council to realize they have that option. That’s what I was told by your office.”

Fischer said he would add something if the committee wants the change.

“It will be a general summary because this takes up a few sections and practice guides that deal with the Government Claims Act in California,” he said.

Perello recently attended the Channel Islands Beach Community meeting, and they have an agenda that says any member of the committee that attends a meeting where

compensation is given that a report is due to the body.

“Various members of our council sit on various committees where compensation is given, and we don’t often bring back the information that took place in those things,” he said.

“In the limited amount of time they have for the councilman’s comments, they could put that in, if there was a notation. And I think the item would reinforce what’s going on with the sanitation district, the port authority, what’s going on with the Gold Coast and the big cities to let the rest of the council members know.”

Fischer said Perello’s idea could be added where the order of business gets discussed under city council business/ committee reports. “Similar to what’s in the agenda language now and we can expand on that,” he said.

Perello asked about “statewide concerns,” which is used in new legislation.

“When it’s coming in, and it’s approved with the term statewide legislation, I understand the city treasurer had discussions with the staff on this matter, that term, statewide concern, does it impact the entire government code,” he asked. “If it doesn’t, where do we exclude it?”

Fischer said it depends.

“Generally, statewide concern, when used by the legislature when adopting a law, means that this is an issue, an area, where the legislature is saying if you are a charter city, you cannot go your own way,” he said.

“This will override whatever you want to put into your charter, or what might be in your charter, and you have to comply with this law, concerning a matter of statewide concern.”

He noted there is also the concept of what is a municipal affair, and what a city is authorized to enact under its general police powers for public health safety and welfare purposes.

“It can be interpreted when it says statewide concern that this is acknowledging that there is a limit to that police power exercised by a city,” Fischer said.

Flynn asked about the ceremonial items on the agenda, which are limited to one item per meeting for five minutes.

“This item just came up recently because there were multiple ceremonial items," he said. “Now that

we are going to only two meetings a month rather than four, we might want to say that we want to set as a goal; two items per meeting, and they should be five minutes. We can have three, as long as they’re all five minutes.”

Fischer said adding the word “normally” would apply to the ceremonial items.

“We’re not talking about a hardand-fast rule, as you’ve observed, it’s more often than not, more than one item on the consent agenda,” he said.

“It’s a rule that’s ‘frequently violated,’ but it’s aspirational.”

From there, he asked about the “mandatory strategic summit” and said the reason why mandatory was put in was the city would be sporadic with the event.

“The city manager’s viewpoint is every five years you have a strategic summit,” he said. “One of the things I’ve said is, the last time we had a strategic summit, Councilwoman Basua, Council Member Lopez, and Councilman Madrigal were not part of the council, so therefore the strategic goals and objectives of the full council are not intact with what we did 3.5 years ago.”

He suggested adding a broader term to add flexibility to the item.

“We can revisit it annually, and it can be a report to the council which we’ve already had,” he said.

City Manager Alex Nguyen said strategic summits should happen every 3-5 years.

“I don ‘t think it should happen more than every three years because then you are constantly planning,” he said. Nguyen asked about placing a future item on the agenda and noted the intent is perfect, but the process is cumbersome.

“The intent is so council members don’t throw things on the agenda,” he said. “When you do that, it requires staff resources and time, and it will take away from our current workload because it’s new work.”

The current rule is to place it on the agenda to decide if it needs to be on the agenda, he said, which takes too long. “If a council member wants something to come to a committee, you ask that committee, and it requires the majority of the committee to say yes,” Nguyen said.

The committee will revisit the item one more time .

Channel Islands Harbor Director Mark Sandoval introduces the Harbor Academy to the Oxnard City Council.

SANDOVAL ANNOUNCES THE HARBOR ACADEMY

By Chris Frost chris@tricountysentry.com Oxnard-- Channel Islands Harbor Director Mark Sandoval took advantage of the public comment period at the March 19, Oxnard City Council meeting to introduce himself and explain that he should have come earlier but his eight months on the job has been hectic.

He wanted to introduce the Harbor Academy to the group and said during his time in charge it became evident that people don’t know what the harbor department is or what they do.

He challenged his staff to get the word out, and the Harbor Academy was born from that challenge.

“It’s a series of open and public meetings held in the evening once a month,” he said. “We picked a number of topics to discuss and answer any questions the public might have.”

Topics covered by the Harbor Academy include its history, finances, planning and development, harbor patrol and maintenance, promotion and marketing. “We’re trying to do one a month,” he said. “The upcoming one, scheduled for April 4, is planning and development, and I believe that will be a topic of much interest for those interested in the harbor.”

The academy notifies all the neighborhood councils when they plan a session, he said, so they know the meeting will happen.

"From my perspective, I think it’s important that we all get a good understanding of the harbor,” he said.

“I think as we all move forward and work together, we can make this the best harbor in Southern California and even one of the best harbors in the country.”

WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH HONORED

BY THE OXNARD CITY COUNCIL

By Chris Frost chris@tricountysentry.com Oxnard-- The Oxnard City Council presented a special proclamation at the start of its March 19, meeting, as the group honored International Women’s History Month in front of the packed house.

Receiving the proclamation was Jeanette Sanchez-Palacios, president of the Ventura County Women’s Political Council, along

Tri County Sentry (March 22, 2019) F.indd 3

with Betsy Patterson, president of the League of Women voters in Ventura and Patricia Butler from the League of Women Voters in Ventura.

Sanchez-Palacios thanked the crowd for the warm applause and said she appreciates everyone in the City of Oxnard.

“It’s historical for the VCWPC,” she said. “We’ve been around in Ventura helping to train, elect and prepare women for office. Being that it’s International Women’s

History Month, we take the task seriously and want to ensure that we continue to assist women and help them to provide a way to being in leadership positions.”

Mayor Tim Flynn read the proclamation and said women continue to play a pivotal role in the economic, cultural and social life of the nation.

“Women have also played a unique role throughout our history by providing the majority of our volunteer labor force,” he

said. “Women were particularly important in the establishment of charitable, philanthropic and cultural institutions. Women have served our country courageously in the military and have been leaders, not only securing their rights of suffrage and equal opportunity but also in the abolitionists' movement, the emancipation movement, and the labor movement and the peace movement, creating a more fair and just society for all.”

cameras don’t deter activity like that,” he said. “Secondly, that leaves it to the police department if issues like that occur, who are much more expensive than $25 an hour. I think this is money well-spent.”

Flynn said he understands, but he looks at the price tag, $691,000 over three years and a good part of it dials back to the issues that MacDonald spoke about.

“It gets to that point where it is more expensive to not do something about the homeless situation,” he said. “I am hoping that when we have a more robust homeless intervention program, then maybe it will be possible to have a discussion about whether or not contracts like these are necessary.”

Committee member Bert Perello asked if the security guards are unarmed and have background checks and Lambert said he was correct.

Perello said the guard rate for holidays is $36.93 per hour for six city holidays.

“We identify in the report that we don’t pay overtime,” he said. “How do we not go for paying overtime, but we are now able to pay for the holidays?”

Lambert could not answer the question but promised an answer when it reaches the full council.

TRI-COUNTY SENTRY, FRIDAY, MARCH22, 2019

OPED The Question of the Disappearing Ice Cream Dr. James L. Snyder A mystery has developed within the halls of our once peaceful domicile. At first, I did not think too seriously about it. Some things, if left alone usually take care of themselves.

Of course, there always are other things, like my socks, that never take care of themselves no matter how hard I wish.

A hint of the mystery came my way on Wednesday when the Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage went to the freezer for a box of ice cream.

According to her, this was supposed to be for our dessert after supper.

But, if I have all the facts correct, she went to the freezer and did not find the anticipated box of ice cream.

I was preoccupied with the evening news on television when my wife came and stood in the archway with both hands on her hips, staring at me with one of those looks and said, "Where did the ice cream go?"

Well, as questions go, this one was a question, all right. My first response was to say, "Am I my ice cream's keeper?" But I knew that would not scoop any goodwill from her. There is a time to laugh and then there is the time to answer your wife's question.

My problem is I usually confuse these two times.

However, from the tone of her voice I got the suspicion that this was not a rhetorical question. Somehow, I felt she was looking for an answer and in looking for the answer was looking straight at me. At the time I was looking rather guilty.

I resent this sort of thing.

Whenever something adverse happens in our house the first thing my wife does is to question me about the incident. And I do remember that this sort of thing happened even when the children were still living under our roof. The insinuation that I was at the bottom of some sort of mischief is quite offensive to Yours Truly. I usually am at the bottom of something or other, but offensive, nevertheless, to be thought of in this light especially from my wife.

The grilling continued.

"Do you know anything about the missing ice cream?" She queried as though she knew the answer.

My philosophy is, if you know the answer why bother with the question. The way she posed her question suggested to me that she already knew the answer. In fact, the way she was looking at me suggested very strongly that she was looking at the answer.

The only thing I could do was retaliate with a dumb look. When it comes to dumb looks, I got her beat every time. And why not? I've had more practice.

I did not quite know how to answer these inquiries. If I answered "yes," I was in for some very serious interrogation. If, on the other hand, I answered "no," I was in for some very dirty looks. I'm not sure which is worse, "interrogation" or "dirty looks." Both are on about the same level of pain for the recipient.

While we are on the subject, I have some questions of my own. What I want to know is, does she think I'm responsible for the missing ice cream or, does she think I know what happened to the missing ice cream?

How much does she know about the incident and when did she know it?

It was around this time that she brought some evidence to bear upon the incident.

"I bought a box of ice cream on Monday and I have the receipt here to prove that I did. I did not have any ice cream and it is only Wednesday, but the ice cream is missing."

As devastating as that evidence was she still had more incriminating corroboration in her accusatory arsenal.

"Also, I've been hearing some suspicious activity in the middle of the night in the general area of the refrigerator. Do you have any idea what that noise might be?"

Another question! Who does she think she is? The FBI? [Female Bullying Investigator].

I must admit evidence was piling up pretty heavy in my direction.

However, I have a question of my own. Am I responsible for every noise and suspicious activity that goes on in the middle of the night?

And, could it be that I am positively innocent of these covert charges laid against me? Isn't a person presumed to be innocent until found guilty?

And, does a husband qualify as being a person?

I am never good at answering questions. For example, my wife once asked me, "Are you acting like a fool?"

Without even thinking, I responded by saying, "I'll have you know I'm not acting."

Jesus was good at asking questions.

His questions usually got to the heart of the issue. He once asked Peter a

very serious question. "Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these?" (John 21:15).

Peter, being the kind of person he was, thought he knew the answer when he really did not understand the question.

Finally, after the third time, Peter surrendered to the Lord. "Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee." (John 21:17).

At times, the question is not meant to elicit an answer but to get somebody to think about something.

OPED Surviving R. Kelly, Michael Jackson, Bill Cosby... and Who Else?

By Joy Doss As rational, thinking adults, we kinda knew something was amiss with Michael. We subscribed to the Peter Pan and/or asexual fallacy ’cause we needed to.

We knew “Aruh Smelly” was stinkin’ no doubt. Hello? Aaliyah. We just didn’t know how funky it was.

For me, it took a sec to completely divest (“TP.3 Reloaded,” “Chocolate Factory,” “12 Play”). His music was permissive. It created a space for a spring awakening, let’s say. It worked for us, as my generation was coming of age.

At least it worked when we thought he was talking about women who had already come of age. Welp.

He has been scrubbed from my entire musical existence for the past several years, not even a digital trace left behind. “Backyard Party” got me caught up for awhile (radio only) but then I heard my baby girl singing along and it turned my entire stomach. No mas.

I got through two episodes of the Lifetime series documentary “Surviving R. Kelly” before I was in distress and completely revolted.

That’s all.

AND SIR, THAT WAS YOU ON THOSE VIDEOS!! And hits keep coming. So just stop.

“Pill Cosby” was a stunner.

America’s Dad? C’mon man! Sixty women ain’t telling the same lie bruh. “The Cosby Show,” “Fat Albert” and “A Different World” are still required TV in my household. The man changed the game. He upended stereotypes of Black families and young Black people, giving live and direct portraits of Black excellence.

And he gave us full bodied, round, multidimensional characters. Why, Bill, whyyyyy?

Our collective cultural conscience has been assaulted. It feels like a gut punch. Like everything we thought we knew now makes no sense. The world has gone mad I tell ya! It’s probably fair to say that many of us feel violated too,

though obviously in a verrrry different, metaphorical way.

We do place unrealistic expectations of perfection on our icons and public figures and pastors even. However, it’s totally reasonable to expect common decency and a minimal subversive behavior.

Minimal is subjective I know, as is how you define subversive. I’m absolutely not judging anybody’s freaky sneaky, but isn’t there a line somewhere? Gotta be.

I couldn’t even bring myself to watch HBO’s “Finding Neverland” documentary.

Couldn’t do it. Can’t even talk about it. I just have to own my hypocrisy here. MJ isn’t getting the same treatment as these other two and I will brazenly listen to his music.

Maybe “Off The Wall” and the music before was pre-creepy.

Nonetheless, a couple of people made some good counterpoints.

From a very damning Forbes

article: “The allegations surrounding Jackson largely faded over the last decade for a reason: unlike the Bill Cosby or R. Kelly cases, the more people looked into the Jackson allegations, the more the evidence vindicated him.”

And this part: “...there is a remarkable consistency to the way people who knew the artist speak of him – whether friends, family members, collaborators, fellow artists, recording engineers, attorneys, business associates….”

That isn’t even the damning part.

It unpacks some of the facts and inconsistencies from top to bottom.

Read the full article (https://bit. ly/2GZCHo7) and judge for yourself.

But how do we survive the upheaval?

It ain’t by pointing the finger at others. I mean yes, (Harvey) Weinstein. Yes, Woody Allen. Yes, Roman Polanski. President 45 and all

the king’s men too.

And yes, there is very clearly an imbalance in the way justice – and judgment – is meted out. See also: Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis, etc. Weinstein for sure deserves a bid. But let’s be

Our collective cultural conscience has been assaulted. It feels like a gut punch. Like everything we thought we knew now makes no sense. The world has gone mad I tell ya! honest. Most Black folks ain’t studdin’ them. Most of y’all probably don’t know enough about Weinstein, Allen or Polanski to effectively boycott

their movies. This was painful like family.

All of this to say, I don’t have an answer. We won’t be able to mitigate the inevitable disappointment in people, celebrity or not. So, purge them or not, cancel them or not.

Protect your psyche. Be mindful of triggers. Find better models, expect less and cut swiftly. To be sure, we’ll still only know what we’re intended to know.

Let’s cherish what and who we do have. Don’t be so quick to dismiss or to delight in the downfall of others.

Be real life models of good men and women so when it all falls down again, the younger ones can still look up. And we can all stay up.

Continued Cruel Threats to Hungry Families and Children

By Marian Wright Edelman Once again children and families are under attack. After failing in past efforts to slash funding for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, also known as food stamps), the Trump administration is taking a new approach to crippling the program millions of families in the United States depend on to survive and alleviate their hunger pangs. Recently the administration proposed regulations to tighten restrictions on access to SNAP benefits for unemployed and underemployed people who can’t document sufficient weekly work hours. This rule would take food assistance away from an estimated 755,000 people who cannot find work. It is also a callous response to the bipartisan Farm Bill which passed in the fall and rejected harmful cuts to SNAP. If this rule goes forward, it’s not just unemployed and underemployed adults who will go hungry—poor children suffer when adults in their household lose access to food assistance. But it’s not too late to protect these children if you make your voice heard immediately and tell the Department of Agriculture not to take food away from needy families.

Children need reliable access to healthy food to thrive. Hunger and malnutrition jeopardize children’s health, development, school readiness and job readiness. SNAP

Tri County Sentry (March 22, 2019) F.indd 5

helps feed more than 40 million low income people in America including nearly 20 million children—more than one in four— and lifted more than 1.5 million children out of poverty in 2016, more than any other government program. Given the critical role SNAP plays for children and families in communities across the country, the proposed changes that would kick hundreds of thousands of people off SNAP are mean spirited, short sighted, and harmful, will increase food insecurity, and must be stopped.

While current law doesn’t permit SNAP work requirements

for children or adults with children, the ripple effects of these expanded restrictions extend beyond the people they target. Imposing work requirements on able bodied adults without dependents harms children too because children living in poverty often depend on pooled resources including SNAP benefits from extended family members, such as older siblings, who don’t claim them as dependents. This means time limits will hurt not only the adults cut off from the food they need to survive but also children and others they may be helping support. Studies also show low-income parents without

primary custody of children often rely on the availability of SNAP and other forms of assistance including the Earned Income Tax Credit to help them stretch available dollars from work and afford child support payments. In both scenarios additional burdensome restrictions on SNAP eligibility for these adults means fewer available resources to support the health and well-being of children.

Young people aging out of foster care without permanent families also will be at increased risk. They may continue to suffer the trauma that led them into care or resulted from their time

in care, leading to high rates of unemployment, poverty and increased need for food assistance.

This vulnerable population already faces enough formidable barriers to accessing SNAP due to existing work requirements. Any efforts to further restrict access or eliminate state exemptions from these requirements would be particularly harmful.

The newly released 2020 Trump Budget makes clear this administration is willing to slash programs needy families depend on to make ends meet while increasing military spending and diverting billions to the border wall. The President’s harsh budget calls for $220 billion in spending cuts to SNAP over the next decade. Let’s fight back at a White House that takes aim at basic supports millions of children depend on.

The Children’s Defense Fund will be joining many other organizations and individuals submitting comments opposing this SNAP rule before the April 2 deadline and you can too. Learn more about this harmful policy and submit your comments with this easy-to-use tool from our friends at the Food Research and Action Center (FRAC). Join us right now in speaking out against harmful changes to SNAP! As the Food Research and Action Center puts it, echoing the gospels, prophets and teachings of every major religion: Food for the hungry shouldn’t have a time limit.

missing child, Kimberly,” he said. “The department had been working on it for a little while, and I was added to the team with my partner, Scott Aaron.”

The two decided their mission was to bring Kimberly home, and no matter what anybody said, they stuck to that.

“I had this picture in my head of us reuniting her with her family,” Kay said.

Even though Kimberly passed away at age three, the videos and photos gave Kay a sense of her “lovely personality” and love of life.

“It was impossible not to

become emotionally connected to this precious little girl with the charming smile and infectious laugh,” he said. “I feel strongly connected to her more than any of my other victims in any of my homicide cases. This case was the most challenging investigation in my career.”

He stated without a doubt that Kimberly brought out the best in everybody, who joined together to help find her.

Investigator Corina Wondoloski said she never met Kimberly, but her death broke her heart.

“It was not just her death that

broke my heart, but it was her suffering in life that haunted many of you and me,” she said.

“Even in the context of this job I have been doing for 16 years, what happened to this little girl gave me an agonizing insight into the darkness of child abuse.

A suffering child is universally upsetting, but not everyone in the universe comes forward to help.”

She cited Kimberly’s stepparents, Kevin and Karen and everyone who opens their home to a child in need; she said thank you.

“I am inspired and grateful

STATEPOINT CROSSWORD THEME: EUROPE 101

for you,” Wondoloski said.

She told the Rogers family that she wished they’d never met.

“I’m so honored to know you,” she said. “As I became painfully familiar with Kimmie’s life story, I realized that the only true bond, the only connection, the only affection, and the only love she ever knew was with you in your home. The moments of sublime safety and security she enjoyed in your arms were the only ones she left this earth with.”

Stepdad Kevin Rogers told the crowd a reporter called him and asked what he wanted people to feel coming away from the service and he thought it was an odd, but good, question.

“I don’t know what I want them to feel, but I have a couple of thoughts that I would like to communicate,” he said.

“A memorial, whether it’s a landmark or a memorial service, it’s something you establish to remember a person or a place,” he said. “We’re here to remember that Kimberly’s life was sacred and she was loved.”

He tried to share the story of the last time he said goodbye to Kimberly but started to cry and couldn’t finish the story and changed topics.

“Part of a memorial is something that is also part of a legacy that people can look to,” he said. “You think of memorials you can drive to and see you see how that story potentially affected change.:” He wondered if Kimmie’s life can be a memorial that can affect change?

“To that end, I want to take a minute and talk about racism,” he said. “Racism is part of the fabric of our country, and there is a lot of tension around that topic. There is a lot of people who want to deny it exists, and a lot of people who are impacted by it on a daily basis.”

Kevin said people get caught up about racism and being a racist.

“People are so concerned

about being called a racist; they want to deny that racism exists,” he said. “In my mind, racists are few and far in-between. They exist, but a racist is a bad person.”

Kevin pointed out that racism is not talking about any person, but it is the fabric of our culture.

“When our country built its wealth on slavery, that gets built into the fabric of our country,” he said. “Thankfully, people have the courage to address it and effect change, so laws were passed. Did it get rid of racism?

Of course not.”

He argues that society has come a long way because of courageous people throughout history.

“Some have died because this change needs to be made,” he said.

All structures are subject to systemic injustice, he said, and unfortunately, the social care system, the foster care, part of the fabric is broken when a story like this happens.

“Has it come a long way, absolutely,” he said. “Is it better than it was 200 years ago, I’m positive.”

Kevin hopes that Kimmie’s life and her story will be remembered as more than sacred, but it can be a change maker.

“I am humbly standing before you saying I see the broken fabric of the system,” he said. “Is there something we can do, and I know there are people out there who can help us.”

In comments after the memorial, Karen said Braden knew Kimmie, and they went through the loss together.

“It was really, really, hard,” Karen said. “We gave Braden a voice, and we let him say what he wanted to say.”

Braden went to the trial and watched Karen testify against Mayra.

“Anything to do with her, he is part of,” she said. “We do it and keep moving forward. We have more siblings and more love to go around.”

The Rogers have adopted three more kids and fought for them.

“Now we’re raising them, and that is a whole other thing,” she said. “Raising kids with trauma is hard. I can’t fix it. I want to fix everything, and I can’t.

She advises people to choose life.

“We can be angry and alone, or we can choose life,” she said.

“We get up; we try again, we choose to enjoy and choose to see a little bit of something that makes us smile and makes us laugh.”

Karen said if she comforted someone experiencing loss, they would hold each other, cry, rage, then get her voice on.

“If we don’t talk, nobody is ever going to learn, and she is just a number, a Kimberly Chavez, ” she said. “She was so much more than that. She was our Kimmie.”

Step Daughter Sofie Rogers never met Kimmie and all the things they did, and she missed an opportunity.

“My mom is strong and doing all this and is not giving up,” she said.

Braden said he prepared a speech and told the crowd what happened to Kimmie was terrible. Braden is proud of his adopted siblings.

“They deal with this too often,” he said.

Lilah said she saw Kimmie’s picture on the wall and was curious about her parents fostering other kids.

“Kimmie was special, and she was just a baby,” she said. “I know my mom loves children and I never got to be a baby with my mom. I am happy that Kimmie got to be that, and she deserved way more.”

Maritza Serrato fought back the tears and is still in disbelief that it happened.

“What makes it hard is that I wish I could have done more, being involved with both Mayra and Kimmie,” she said. “I wish the system can do better so this doesn’t happen again.”

bring them around to tables and ask them where they would like to sit and introduce them to several people.”

If a lady comes for the first time, Charlette introduces her to a lot of gentlemen so she gets to dance.

“You make friends immediately,” she said. “People are shy, at first, and I’ll bring them over to our table the first time. Our friends start talking

to them because they are new, and we want to make them feel welcome.”

Bernice and Carl Taggeselle enjoy the club immensely, and don’t let their ages, 90 and 98, slow them down.

“We’ve been coming here for a long time,” Bernice said. “We do them all, the tango, the waltz and ballroom dance.”

Carl said the group provides plenty of exercise, but he also does chores at home.

“I mow the lawn,” he said.

Charlette said the couple are expert ballroom dancers, and Carl said the best advice he has for a rookie is to go around the floor.

“On the ballroom floor, the man is the king and the wife cannot lead,” Bernice said. “She has to get her feet out of the way.”

Carol Wright and Tony Dean started dancing with the group for about two months and Tony was working the box with powder.

“So, your shoes don’t stick on the floor,” Carol said. “We dance to everything.”

DIETRICH aka RITA PATRICIA DIETRICH A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by Elizabeth Ward in the Superior Court of California, County of VENTURA. THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that Elizabeth Ward be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

THE PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

A HEARING on the petition will be held on April 10, 2019 at 9:00 AM in Dept. No. J6 located at 4353 E. Vineyard, Oxnard, CA 93036.

IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code.

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

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

The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein.

Byrd in the Superior Court of California, County of VENTURA. THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that Judy L. Byrd be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

THE PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

A HEARING on the petition will be held on March 27, 2019 at 9:00 AM in Dept.

No. J6 located at 4353 E. Vineyard, Oxnard, CA 93036.

IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code.

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250.

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

NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (800) 280-2832 or visit this Internet Web site www.auction. com, using the file number assigned to this case 18-52423. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale.

Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site.

Newer Heart Valves May Let More People Avoid Surgery

By Marilyn Marchione Surgery for certain bad heart valves may soon become a thing of the past. New studies suggest it's OK and often better to have a new valve placed through a tube into an artery instead.

The results are expected to quickly transform treatment of a problem that affects millions of people—a stiff or narrowed aortic valve that doesn't let blood pass as it should. Until recently, fixing severe cases required a major operation using a heart-lung machine while surgeons cut out the old valve and sewed in a new one.

A decade ago, expandable aortic valves were developed that can be guided to the heart through a catheter into a blood vessel and placed inside the old valve. But they're only used now in people at high or moderate risk of dying from surgery. The new studies tested these valves in people at low risk for the operation, as most patients are, and found them as good or superior to surgical ones.

“This is our last frontier” to make these devices a standard of care, said Dr. Joseph Cleveland, a University of Colorado heart surgeon with no role in the studies or ties to the companies that sponsored them. “It's

Studies show the insertion of a new heart valve through a catheter (left) is as effective and sometimes better than inserting the valve through open-heart surgery (Right). a great thing” for patients to be able to avoid major surgery, he said.

Results were published by the New England Journal of Medicine on Saturday and were discussed at an American College of Cardiology

conference in New Orleans on Sunday.

In one study, about 1,000 patients were given standard surgery or an expandable Edwards Lifesciences valve. After one year, 15 percent of

the surgery group and 8.5 percent of the others had died, suffered a stroke or needed to be hospitalized again.

In the other study, 1,400 patients were given surgery or a Medtronic expandable valve. Based on partial

results, researchers estimated that after two years, 6.7 percent of the surgery group and 5.3 percent of the others had died or suffered a disabling stroke.

In both studies, certain problems were more common with surgery, including major bleeding and development of a fluttering heartbeat called atrial fibrillation. In the Medtronic study, 17 percent of expandable valve recipients later required a pacemaker versus 6 percent of people who had surgery.

Previous research suggests that overall costs are lower with expandable valves, which cost about $30,000 versus $5,000 for surgical ones, largely because they require much shorter hospital stays and caused fewer complications, said Cleveland, who also is a spokesman for the College of Cardiology.

In the United States, surgeries to replace aortic valves have been falling. Only about 25,000 are expected to be done this year and Cleveland expects that to drop by half next year and by half again in 2021.

He and other doctors say the expandable valves still need longer study to see if they hold up as well as surgical ones. Catheter-based approaches for problems with some other heart valves, such as the mitral valve, also have been developed or are in testing.

Zion sets doubts aside, gets ready for NCAA's biggest party

By Eddie Pells The clock is ticking. The rest of college basketball has three weeks to figure out how to stop Duke's freshman force of nature, Zion Williamson.

Williamson and the Blue Devils got the overall top seed in the tournament, while Gonzaga and two more Atlantic Coast Conference teams—North Carolina and Virginia—also received No. 1 seeds. Three teams in one conference on the top line matches a record, and offers the selection committee's guess as to who has the best chance to slow down Duke.

The Blue Devils opened as a 9-4 favorite to win it all.

Williamson, the 6-foot-7 man-child averaging 22 points and nine rebounds and a near-certain top pick in the upcoming NBA draft, is putting his future on the line—along with hundreds of millions in potential earnings—all in hopes of adding his own chapter to the history of America's most dream-indulged hoops extravaganza. He's doing it only four weeks after wrenching his knee when his Nike sneaker blew out and sent him crashing to the floor. He missed five games. He wouldn't dare miss this.

“Everybody has their right to their own opinion, but I knew I was coming back the whole time,” Williamson said in his return last week, when he led Duke to its 21st ACC tournament title.

Speaking of shoes ... the companies that make them are intrinsically, financially and, yes, toxically intertwined with the players who fill out Division I rosters. The tournament will once again be played against the backdrop of a long list of problems—most of them related to money—that plague the NCAA and college hoops.

LSU is the latest to have its name dragged through the mud, yet neither the NCAA nor the school appeared to think twice about placing the Tigers in a starring role the drama, which began Tuesday with a pair of play-in games, then got going in full force on Thursday.

The Tigers were given the No. 3 seed in the East, a mere two weeks after details emerged about their coach, on a wiretap, talking to a recruiting middleman about a “strong ass offer” he made to a high schooler. If true, coach Will Wade clearly violated NCAA rules— in fact, The NCAA Rule: Thou Shalt Not Pay Players.

But while Wade has been banished to the sideline for the time being, the Tigers will be at the party.

“That's an institutional decision,” Stanford athletic director Bernard Muir, the chair of the selection committee, said last week.

(Muir has other issues: Stanford's sailing coach was among those charged last week in the giant pay-foradmissions scandal involving small sports at a handful of universities.)

And yet, despite the sordid headlines and the requisite amount of pre-tournament nose-holding, the next three weeks are certain to inspire and amaze us.

Major prostate cancer research targeting African Americans set to begin

By Stacy M. Brown For African American men, prostate cancer is real.

Health statistics paint disturbing trends, including that 60 percent of Black males are more likely to develop prostate cancer than any other race.

Just as unsettling, African American men are twice as likely to die of prostate cancer than any other ethnic group.

The seriousness of this disparity isn’t lost on a national network of prostate cancer researchers and experts who have joined forces to study prostate cancer in African American men.

The team has received a $26 million grant as part of former Vice President Joe Biden’s Cancer Moonshot Initiative to conduct the largest study ever to look at the underlying factors and reasons that put African American men at higher risk for developing and dying from prostate cancer.

The initiative is called the RESPOND study—Research on Prostate Cancer in Men of African Ancestry: Defining the Roles of Genetics, Tumor Markers, and Social Stress.

Over the next four years, 10,000 African American men with prostate cancer will

be recruited from Cancer Registries in seven states— California, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Maryland, New Jersey, Texas and throughout the Detroit Metropolitan area in Michigan.

Cancer registries are located in each of the 50 United States.

“Lots of people don’t know about cancer registries so when we contact people that we’ve identified through the registry sometimes they are angry,” said Denise Modjeski, the study coordinator for RESPOND at the Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California Department of Preventive Medicine.

“We tell them it is very complicated process that grants access to the contact data, and it’s all for the greater good,” Modjeski said.

“But, of course we honor people’s wishes and if they tell us they don’t want to participate in any study ever, we never contact them again,” she said.

However, the RESPOND study counts as a little different.

“Most cancer registries like this only send out ‘letters of invitation’ to people from the study’s local cancer registry,” Modjeski said.

“RESPOND will also include volunteers, which

means they can hear about us and either contact us through the website or through our toll free number,” she said.

Volunteers can reach out from all over the country with the only requirement being they identify as African American or Black and have been diagnosed with prostate cancer in the United States from January 1, 2010 or later.

Participants will answer a 12-page survey, and if they’re willing, do additional parts of the study which include providing a saliva sample and, or signing a HIPAA form to allow researchers to get a piece of tissue that has been removed and stored at their medical facility.

The study isn’t a clinical trial, as researchers aren’t testing any new drug, device, procedure, or protocol. There are no doctor visits required and participants can complete the survey on paper or online.

“To bring credibility to this important initiative, we are [also] looking for partners willing to lead the way in advocating for this study and cause,” Modjeski said.

“With one in five African American men developing prostate cancer in their lifetime, we hope this is an issue that resonates with the African

American community and advocacy groups. With your help we can make a difference with research that will have life changing consequences for future generations of African American men,” she said.

RESPOND officials say they’re not being restrictive with volunteers who reach out, however individuals the team is identifying through the cancer registries will have an upper age limit of 79 at the age of diagnosis.

For the participants identified through the registries, researchers are concentrating on diagnosis years of 2015 through 2018.

Recruitment is scheduled to begin in April.

“We recruit the people identified through the registries in batches since we can’t handle everyone at one time. We’ll send out about 100 to 200 letters of invitation including the printed survey every couple of months,” Modjeski said.

“We hope that many of the people who receive these letters and surveys from us over the next few years will have already heard about the study.”

Jussie Smollett Pleads Not Guilty to Lying About Attack CHICAGO (AP)—“Empire” actor Jussie Smollett pleaded not guilty Thursday to charges accusing him of lying to the police about being the victim of a racist and homophobic attack in downtown Chicago a few weeks ago.

Lawyer Tina Glandian entered the plea on behalf of the 36-yearold actor during a hearing in Cook County Circuit Court after Judge Steven Watkins was assigned to oversee the case, including the trial.

Watkins granted Smollett's request to be allowed to meet with lawyers in New York and California, but said the actor must give the court at least 48 hours' prior notice. He scheduled the next hearing for April 17.

Smollett, who left the courthouse without speaking to reporters, is charged with 16 counts of disorderly conduct.

Prosecutors allege that Smollett, who is Black and gay and plays the gay character Jamal Lyon on the hit Fox TV show, hired two friends to help him stage the attack on him in downtown Chicago early on the morning of Jan. 29. They say Smollett was unhappy about his salary and wanted to drum up publicity to help his career.

Smollett has denied that he staged the attack and maintains he is innocent. His attorneys have called the charges against him “prosecutorial overkill.”

There were several supporters outside the courthouse doors as Smollett arrived for the hearing,

Defense attorney Tina Glandian entered a not guilty plea on behalf of Jussie Smollett. including some who waved signs.

Activist Wisdom Cole led a few chants in support of the actor, the Black community and the LGBT

community.

“Jussie has been a person of high caliber and character. He comes from an activist family. He has a

consistent track record and history of supporting marginalized people ... and so his track record is not on par with the idea of a hoax,” she said.

Deportation looms for convicted 'Real Housewives' husband NEWARK, N.J. (AP)—The husband of one of the “Real Housewives of New Jersey” reality TV stars has been released from federal prison and is waiting to see if he'll be deported back to Italy.

Joe Giudice was moved this week to an Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility in McElhattan, in central Pennsylvania, according to attorney Jerard Gonzalez.

Last October, a judge in York, Pennsylvania, ruled Giudice would be deported to his native country upon completion of his sentence for financial fraud and failing to pay income taxes.

Giudice has appealed the ruling.

Giudice has said through his attorneys that he came to the U.S. as an infant and wasn't aware he wasn't an American citizen.

Giudice and wife Teresa pleaded guilty in 2014 to bankruptcy fraud and submitting false loan applications to get $5 million in mortgages and construction loans. Joe Giudice also pleaded guilty to not paying about $200,000 in income taxes.

Teresa Giudice served nearly a year in prison and was freed in December 2015. Under a sentencing agreement that allowed for continuous care of the couple's four young children, Joe Giudice began serving his 41-month sentence in March 2016.

A rough journey to new music for Jenny Lewis

By David Bauder LOS ANGELES (AP)—Life hasn't been easy for singer Jenny Lewis since the sunnier days when she performed in support of a 2014 album while wearing a rainbowhued pantsuit and carrying a guitar with similar bright colors.

Her mother died, and a 12-year relationship ended, sending Lewis on a cross-country journey in search of herself. Finally, with a new album finished and awaiting a Friday release, she's had to deal with the uncomfortable story of occasional collaborator Ryan Adams' alleged mistreatment of women.

Spending much of the upcoming year on tour may seem like a relief.

The up-tempo songs “Red Bull & Hennessy” and “Heads Gonna Roll” from her “On the Line” album, with Lewis' unerring sense of tunefulness, will get the initial attention. But the work's emotional core emerges in quieter, more introspective material like “Dogwood,” “Rabbit Hole” and “Taffy.” Those are the songs that will stick.

Much of the material was written in stolen moments on borrowed pianos, in friends' apartments and hotel lobbies, where she had to keep quiet to avoid making a disturbance.

“I don't think of this record as being a breakup record,” she said. “It's more of a rebound record. It's kind of the space in

Tri County Sentry (March 22, 2019) F.indd 12

between.”

The southern California native relied on a network of friends during her post-breakup travels, staying in musician St. Vincent's New York apartment, for example. She and two friends formed a band and wrote songs in a Manhattan storefront, where pedestrians mistook them for an art installation. She spent time in Nashville and Minnesota.

Even when she returned to California, Lewis used Airbnb to explore different parts of Los Angeles.

“I ran away,” the 43-year-old said. “I really just got back here a couple

of months ago. It was a three-year adventure.”

How much of an adventure? It's hard not to notice all the references to alcohol and other substances sprinkled throughout the album's lyrics. There's Hennessy, of course.

Grenadine.

Bourbon.

Beaujolais. Red wine (unspecific).

Amphetamines. Paxil. A bong. Part of it is a good writer's attention to detail, but still...

“It's relevant,” she said.

She brings a bottle to a restaurant in the heart of Hollywood where she talked about her music. Not to drink: it's a gift for a friend, singer

Nikki Lane, who's performing later that night nearby. A former child actress who turned to music and was a member of the group Rilo Kiley before going solo, Lewis has a wide circle of friends and admirers in the business.

None of that could have prepared her for the surreal experience she had at Los Angeles' Capitol studio while making “On the Line,” however.

Lewis played on the piano that Carole King used to make “Tapestry,” which is intimidating enough. Her band included former Tom Petty keyboard player Benmont Tench, record executive and bassist Don Was and the drum duo of Ringo Starr and Jim Keltner.

“That's one of my favorite moments in my whole life,” she said.

“Standing in the control room and watching Ringo and Jim play together, I was mesmerized. Of course I am thrilled, honored. Shocked, really.

I kept thinking, `Is someone doing somebody a favor here?”'

She believes it was Was who called in Starr. “I don't know exactly,” she

said. “He was just there with his drums.”

Beck and Adams were two other big names who helped out. Adams, who produced Lewis' 2014 album “Voyager,” produced some of the new music, too.

The association with Adams became noteworthy when the New York Times reported that he allegedly pursued younger female artists for sex and sometimes became verbally and emotionally abusive when turned down. Adams has denied the accusations.

Lewis was not included in the Times' story, and her interview with The Associated Press took place before the story was published. She declined a follow-up request to talk about it, and tweeted a statement: “I am deeply troubled by Ryan Adams' alleged behavior. Although he and I had a working professional relationship, I stand in solidarity with the women who have come forward.”

Lewis subsequently held an online album-release party that doubled as a benefit for the Los Angeles Women's Center, and it raised more than $10,000.

For Adams, the fallout has been swift: a canceled concert tour, an album release put on hold. Could the controversy hurt Lewis b y

association?

Jason Lipshutz, senior director of music for Billboard magazine, said it might have been an issue if Lewis had publicly defended him or been part of the Times' story. The women's center benefit was a smart strategic move, he said.

“I do think that it is something that people are going to be able to separate from her music,” Lipshutz said. as suspended for driving while intoxicated in 2010.
