Disney’s The Little Mermaid JR Opening This Friday OJAI—When Disney’s The Little Mermaid, JR opens at the Ojai Art Center Theater this Friday, it will be just one part of the Art Center that is presenting an aquatic-themed August. The Art Gallery will display works inspired by the ocean and beach. Disney’s The Little Mermaid JR., adapted from Disney’s Broadway production and the motion picture (featuring the enormously popular Academy Award-winning music and delightfully charming book and lyrics). Based on one of Hans Christian Andersen’s most beloved stories, Disney’s The Little Mermaid JR.is an enchanting look at the sacrifices we all make for love and acceptance.

“We are very proud of the first ever Youth Branch production of a summer show,” said award-winning theater educator Gai Jones, who directs the show. “This tuition free acting opportunity gave us a cast of 25 children ages 6-15, many whom have never been on stage before. Another goal of the program was to provide opportunities for older students who are interested in offstage supporting roles, lights, assistant directing, costume, music and dance.

We are thrilled to mention that the majority of the staff is comprised of high school or college students who have performed on the Art Center Theater in the past.”

With so many cast members, some parts will be shared by the talented youngsters. The first listed actor will perform the first weekend and the second actor the last weekend. There is a preshow with the youngest actors, Rachel Flanzer, Ruah Barkan, Charley Balderas, Luna Barkan, Daryan Barati 5- and 6-year-olds doing a dance to “Under the Sea” before the show begins.

Report: Rosa Parks House Has Buyers, Working Out Details PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP)—The auctioneer selling the house where Rosa Parks sought refuge after fleeing the South amid death threats said after the auction on Thursday there are buyers interested, but it will take a few days to work out the details.

The house was included in an auction by Guernsey’s in New York as part of a larger sale of AfricanAmerican cultural and historic items. It was listed with a minimum bid of $1 million, with a presale estimate of $1 million to $3 million.

It didn’t sell during the auction, but Arlan Ettinger, of Guernsey’s, said he was approached after the auction by a buyer who had trouble entering a bid online. He did not release the buyer’s identity.

Among the other items of interest that sold was Alex Haley’s manuscript of “The Autobiography of Malcolm X,” including handwritten notes by Malcolm X and Haley, which sold to New York’s Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, Ettinger said. It was sold after the auction, and he did not immediately release the price.

Parks moved to Detroit in 1957, two years after refusing to give up her seat on a bus to a white passenger in Montgomery, Alabama. She stayed for a time in her brother’s tiny, wood-framed home with 17

other relatives, according to family members.

The house eventually was abandoned and ended up on a demolition list before Parks’ niece, Rhea McCauley, bought it for $500 and donated it to American artist Ryan Mendoza in an attempt to preserve her aunt’s legacy. Mendoza took it

apart and shipped it to Germany and reassembled it in his yard in Berlin, turning it into a work of art that became a destination for people curious about Parks.

Mendoza brought the house back to the U.S. earlier this year and displayed it in Rhode Island as he searched for a permanent place

to reassemble the fragile structure for the final time. It is now packed in shipping containers awaiting its new home.

He has said he hopes it will be displayed so the public can see it.

The auction house has said the proceeds of the sale will be split between Mendoza and Parks’ family.

Missing Parts of Malcolm X’s Autobiography Found

By Verena Dobnik

NEW YORK (AP)—For decades, a burning question loomed over a towering 20th century book: “The Autobiography of Malcolm X”: What happened to the reputedly missing chapters that may have contained some of the most explosive thoughts of the African-American firebrand assassinated in 1965?

The answer came on Thursday, when an unpublished manuscript of a chapter titled “The Negro” was sold by Guernsey’s auction house in Manhattan—for $7,000.

“We are like the Western deserts; tumbleweed, rolling and tumbling whichever way the white wind blows,” he writes. “And the white man is like the cactus, deeply rooted, with spines to keep us off.”

The buyer was The New York Public Library’s Schomburg Center

for Research in Black Culture, based in Harlem.

Schomburg Director Kevin Young confirmed to The Associated Press that this was in fact an unpublished missing section of Malcom X’s autobiography, whose 241-page draft the Schomburg also acquired Thursday for an undisclosed sum.

The manuscript of the autobiography was for years owned by Gregory Reed, a lawyer for Rosa Parks who purchased the collection from author Alex Haley’s estate.

The draft of the entire book is of immense value, beyond the historic, for the handwritten revisions and comments by Malcolm X and Haley, Young said in a telephone interview after the auction.

Their dialogue, in writing, reflects the human rights activism of the Muslim minister who indicted white America for what he saw as

criminal behavior against Blacks; opponents including the U.S. government accused him of inciting racism and violence. He was assassinated in Harlem in 1965 by three members of the Nation of Islam, a radical religious movement, shortly after he had broken away from the group.

The scribbled notes in the manuscript—not available until now— “are a very direct narrative that he’s crafting,” says Young, citing the image of racist cross-burning that Malcolm X’s mother described to him as a child. “And that’s what brings him into the world.”

One mystery was solved in public on Thursday, but another was born: loose fragments of Malcolm’s writing-in-the-works. Were these parts of possible other missing chapters? n FOUND, see page 7

Latinos Having Difficulty Communicating With Health Professionals

By Emily Swanson and Russell Contreras WASHINGTON (AP)—Nearly 6 in 10 Hispanic adults have had a difficult time communicating with a health care provider because of a language or cultural barrier, and when they do they often turn to outside sources for help, according to a new study conducted by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.

The survey finds that half of those who have faced those barriers turned to a family member or to another health care provider for assistance. In addition, more than 1 in 4 looked to a translator, public resources in their community or online sources for help when they faced those issues.

Antonio Torres, 53, of Orlando, Florida, who is bilingual and legally blind, told The AP he regularly struggles to understand the medical terms used by doctors and nurses.

“When I tell them I don’t understand them, they’ll bring someone over to speak to me in Spanish and I don’t understand them, either,” said Torres,

who is Puerto Rican and was raised in New York. “We didn’t grow up speaking that formal Spanish, so I have no idea what they are saying.”

At times, Torres said he even gets medicine with his name misspelled on the bottle. “And I don’t know if I’m taking my medicine or someone else’s,” he said.

The language and cultural barriers in health care for Latinos are something advocates have been pointing out for years.

In 2014, for example, the Obama administration faced criticism following the rollout of the Spanish version of the federal health care website, CuidadoDeSalud.gov. The translations were so clunky and full of grammatical mistakes that critics say they must have been computer-generated. The website also translated “premium” into “prima,” the Spanish word more commonly used to mean a female cousin among Mexican-Americans and Mexican immigrants.

Along with communication challenges, many Hispanics are concerned about language or cultural accommo-

F dations for people in their community who seek long-term care services.

Fewer than half say it would be easy for older Latinos in their area to find a nursing home or assisted living facility with staff that speaks their language, or to find a home health aide who does.

Even fewer—less than 3 in 10—say the same about finding long-term care providers who can prepare the kind of food they are used to. Some have concerns about finding nursing homes and assisted-living facilities that will respect their religious or spiritual beliefs, though fewer have the same concern about home health aides.

Torres said he’s not confident he’ll find a culturally sensitive nursing home when he’s gets older. “I’d rather just live alone and poison myself by accident rather than stay in one of those homes right now,” he said.

Like other older Americans, many Hispanics age 40 and older expect to rely on government programs like Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid to pay for long-term care services, even though Medicare does not cover most nursing care or home health aides. But

only about 2 in 10 think any of these programs will still be providing at least the same level of benefits five years from now. Just 15 percent of older Hispanics are very confident they will be able to pay for their own future longterm care needs.

The survey also finds that a large majority of older Hispanics are open to using at least one type of telemedicine to receive care, including phone consultations, text messages or video services like Skype, although older Hispanics are somewhat less likely than others in their age group to say they’d be comfortable using some types of telemedicine.

Gabriel Vargas, 41, of Lancaster, South Carolina, who is from Veracruz, Mexico, said he felt these resources in his area already were helping Latino residents. The growth of online options, he said, is breaking down the stigma held by Hispanics around regular checkups and preventative care.

“There’s a nonprofit group here that goes out of its way to help,” said Vargas, whose first language is Spanish.

“Maybe 10 years ago, it was tough."

For Fans, Winning Trumps Pitcher’s Racist Comments

By Errin Haines Whack

SAN FRANCISCO—Nearly a week after he was cheered in the wake of his years-old racist, sexist and homophobic tweets resurfacing, Milwaukee Brewers reliever Josh Hader took the mound in San Francisco last Thursday night to boos.

After the game, Hader continued to express regret for his actions and his desire to move forward as a teammate, but he also offered a familiar excuse— pointing to the incident as a youthful mistake.

“I can’t control what they’re going to say to me,” Hader told reporters. “I’ve made mistakes in my earlier years. I can’t let my mistakes distract me from my job going now.”

Neither can his hometown fans, who gave him a standing ovation at his first home outing last week.

As he watched the Brewers play the Washington Nationals earlier this week, Brett Culver explained it this way: Hader’s part of the team.

“They’re not going to give up on him for something he said as a 17-year-old,” said Culver, 34, of Appleton, Wisconsin. “I’m sure he regrets it.”

Add racism to the list of acceptable behaviors for athletes—so long as they’re winning.

“When white men do something we consider to be racist, homophobic or otherwise wrong or politically incorrect, they have to do very little to get back into our good graces,” said University of Connecticut sociologist Matthew Hughey.

“If the team starts to do

particularly badly, we might have a different story. America loves winners just as much as it loves racism.”

After a thread of Hader’s tweets from 2011 and 2012 came to light on July 17, the pitcher apologized and Major League Baseball swiftly condemned his comments and announced sensitivity training for the player, now 24.

Brewers management called his comments “inexcusable,” but also said the tweets aren’t reflective of who Hader is now as a person or teammate.

The excuses of youth, history, or a tendency to focus on current and not past character are frequent go-tos for white people caught saying or doing something racist, said University of Hartford sociologist Woody Doane, who studies the intersection of whiteness and sports.

“The ‘I was young’ explanation contains elements of white privilege,” Doane said.

“We don’t let young, 17-yearold Black boys get away with much.”

Some of the very fans who made a statement at the game by welcoming Hader back with a standing ovation would

prefer to keep the athletes’ focus on the game—especially NFL players who have tried to highlight systemic racism with protests during the national anthem.

Despite their talent, NFL players have been roundly condemned and booed for

their actions, a phenomenon likely to continue with the encouragement of a U.S. president on social media.

It’s not that fans won’t turn on players; it’s a question of what they will turn on them for.

And when such public sentiment affects the bottom line, owners are quick to follow.

The disparity has not gone

unnoticed. In a statement this week, Milwaukee alderman Khalif Rainey, who is Black, contrasted the Brewers ownership and fan response to Hader to the Milwaukee Bucks’ answer to NBA player Sterling Brown’s harassment by the city’s police department during a traffic stop.

“When you put standing ovations into a sports context, those are usually reserved for major milestones or athletic accomplishments,” Rainey said in a telephone interview Friday. “To see that moment in Milwaukee, it was like, what are we saying to the rest of the country?”

Such incidents aren’t limited to sports or even America, but are part of a larger climate of rejecting political correctness and rallying around a perceived attack on white masculinity that was stoked by President Donald Trump on his path to the White House.

“The Trump effect,” Doane said, fits in with a global resurgence of nationalism and white racism.

Among the most egregious offenders are European soccer fans, who are normally hostile to Black players amid the wave of anti-immigration sentiment on the continent.

Last month, France set aside such feelings and embraced its World Cup championship team, made up largely

of players of African descent.

They “make American fans look like a church choir,” Doane said.

Hader’s performance this season has earned him forgiveness not just from the fans, but from his team.

His comments have not cost him his job because they haven’t affected the Brewers’ bottom line.

But what’s good for baseball doesn’t always feel good for Milwaukee, a city where the Black population has nearly doubled as the white population has dropped by half in a generation.

The stands at Miller Park, however, remain filled with mostly white fans, the same as most ballparks across the country. The sport, unlike football and basketball, is still a mostly white pastime, Hughey said.

“There’s a specter of whiteness that haunts American’s ballparks,” he said. “There’s an expectation of white innocence and white competitiveness that is connected to the intersection of white masculinity and nationalism.”

Rainey said Hader has a unique opportunity in the small community of Milwaukee as he moves past his hurtful comments.

“He can play a big part in moving us forward as a city and advancing the conversation about the race issues that are here, and that would be healing for him as well,” Rainey said.

“Ultimately, the people giving him a standing ovation don’t have the ability to forgive him, because they’re not the ones he offended.”

acebook announced last week that it would make “legally binding” changes to its advertising platform, removing some features that allowed discrimination in housing, employment, insurance and credit ads.

The social networking company’s pledges came in response to an investigation by the state of Washington prompted by a November 2016 ProPublica article. The article disclosed that the company’s software made it possible for marketers to tailor who saw Facebook ads by race, gender, nationality and other characteristics protected by the Fair Housing Act of 1968.

The housing act bars publication of any advertisement “with respect to the sale or rental of a dwelling that indicates any preference, limitation, or discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin.”

An initial test by ProPublica of Facebook’s automated ad system in 2016 revealed that discriminatory ads for housing sailed through in seconds. That story prompted the company to say that it would institute much stricter controls to prevent advertising that excluded particular groups.

In November 2017, we tested the system again, and found that Facebook had not made any meaningful changes. Thirdparty advertisers equipped with Facebook’s targeting tools were still able to block users the company identified as belonging to “multicultural affinity” categories like “Hispanic US” or “African American” from seeing ads on their newsfeed for housing, employment and credit opportunities. In some cases, we found specific instances of discrimination, including more than two dozen companies that had taken out job ads exclusively targeting younger job seekers.

Facebook’s advertising portal has since faced legal challenge on multiple fronts, including a lawsuit alleging housing discrimination and a lawsuit arguing against illegal age bias in employment ads.

Investigators in Washington Attorney General Bob Ferguson’s office expanded upon the ProPublica inquiry by purchasing 20 more fake ads that cleared the approval process and hunting for live ads excluding protected categories of people from opportunities. The office said it found real-world examples of ads that did just that.

Facebook says changes will apply nationwide, and says many of the required changes have already been rolled out.

In a statement late last year, the company promised to make temporary changes preventing advertisers from excluding audiences by race while it studied the use of its advertising system, claiming: “We believe advertising should be safe and civil. It should not divide or discriminate.”

The Census Citizenship Question and Children

By Marian Wright Edelman Who counts as a person in America? The answer is more complicated than it should be. Every ten years the government is required by the Constitution to count the entire resident population of the United States. The Census matters for a very long list of reasons beginning with political representation: the count is used to determine how seats in the House of Representatives are distributed and states rely on it to map their own legislative districts.

Census data are used to determine how federal and state funding are distributed for Medicaid, nutrition assistance programs, Head Start, education, Pell Grants, economic development, transportation spending, and much more.

Businesses use the Census to make decisions about where consumers and workers are located. Researchers use it to study how diseases are concentrated or spread out over the population. It’s obvious—or should be obvious—that a huge range of stakeholders need this count of the entire population to be as accurate as it can possibly be.

That’s why there has been a swift, harsh, and widespread critical reaction to the Trump Administration’s request to add a question to the 2020 Census asking residents to identify whether or not they are citizens—a move that seems very likely to make many respondents fearful and anxious, especially in today’s national climate, about participating in the Census at all, leading to a very serious undercount. The period for public comment on this proposed change ends Tuesday, August 7th, and there is still time to add your voice to the

member in a Census count.

Children of color and children in immigrant families are historically already especially likely to be undercounted. One study estimated that there was an undercount of 400,000 young Latino children in the 2010 census, and that three-quarters of those undercounted children came from just five states: California, Texas, Florida, Arizona and New York. States with large numbers of undercounted children are already losing out on their appropriate share of federal funding for education, health care, and more and all of these numbers would only skyrocket with an added question on citizenship status.

The Leadership Conference points out that there would be a significant financial cost to taxpayers just to add an untested question this late in the process: “According to the Census Bureau, every one percent decrease in the self-response rate will increase the cost of the count by $55 million.

Time to Reform the System

By Jeffrey L. Boney

v

During a recent trip to Houston, Rev. Jesse Jackson joined forces with Harris County Precinct 1 Commissioner Rodney Ellis and various local community advocates, to address a litany of social justice issues that have impacted many individuals in the Greater Houston area, as well as across the entire nation.

At a news conference that was held at the Harris County Precinct One El Rio Service Center, Rev. Jackson joined Commissioner Ellis to talk about why Harris County Commissioners Court should settle a bail reform lawsuit and a push for the county to adopt a minority- and women-owned business enterprise (MWBE) program.

Several community leaders, ministers, and community organizations, such as FIEL Houston, a group focused on the needs of families and education, the NAACP, the AntiDefamation League and others were part of the gathering.

One of the most important battles taking place across the U.S. has been a push for bail reform. The fight for bail reform has become one of the most important and major civil rights issues of our day; and that fight is being aggressively waged in Harris County, which has the majority of its county leadership fighting a costly lawsuit to contest its unjust cash-bail system that keeps poor people behind bars.

Rev. Jackson spoke out against the position Harris County has taken to aggressively fight the lawsuit and expressed his support for U.S. District Judge Lee H. Rosenthal's recent ruling that found Harris County’s cash bail system unconstitutional, emphasizing that the system essentially keeps select defendants in jail, because they are poor and do not have the means to pay.

“The cash bail system in Harris County is discriminatory along the lines of race and poverty,” Rev. Jackson stated. “Fewer and fewer people are getting more and more, while more and more have less and less. We need to get rid of the borders that separate poor people from those who are not poor, in Harris County. We must continue our fight for the poor, because

Harris County Judge Ed Emmett, however, most of them cannot fight for themselves.”

The case against Harris County is scheduled has gone on record stating that the bail reform to go to trial in December, but Rev. Jackson lawsuit should be settled out of court. However, the three Commissioners have dug in their strongly urged Harris County officials to stop heels, advocating for Harris County to continue their efforts to fight against the movement spending money to defend the lawsuit. to end the current cash bail system and is encouraging them “That money could be spent to settle the lawsuit We could have been using that to avoid any on reforming further damage to money to educate people, so that the system,” said poor people. once they get out of prison, they C o m m i s s i o n e r Commissioner Ellis. “We could are productive, and don’t get have been using Ellis, who is the only member on stuck in that cycle.

Commissioner Ellis has faced continuous and tremendous amount of Since 2016, Harris County has spent roughly pushback from his other three colleagues on $7 million to defend the lawsuit and appeal the case, versus using that money for other muchCommissioners Court: Jack Morman (Precinct needed areas across the county.

for Commissioner Ellis’ efforts to get Harris County to adopt an MWBE program and policy to ensure MWBEs have a fair opportunity to compete for and win contracts with Harris County. Harris County and the City of Houston recently approved an inter-local agreement that allows Harris County to use certain elements of the city’s disparity study, which is required for its race- and gender-conscious contracting program.

Lastly, Rev. Jackson addressed the Trump administration’s former policy that separated immigrant children from their parents at the U.S.-Mexico border.

“This was a crime against humanity,” said Rev. Jackson. “Fighting for children at the border is our obligation, just like fighting to end borders that separate Blacks and browns from Whites, as well as the poor in Harris County, is our obligation.”

Rev. Jackson emphasized that getting people out to vote during the upcoming midterm elections is extremely important and a critical way to ensure these major social justice issues are addressed.

At last month’s National Newspaper Publishers Association (NNPA) Annual Convention, Rev. Jackson expressed his support of the NNPA’s efforts to encourage 5 million Blacks to register to vote before the November midterm elections.

They are hoping the success of this initiative will significantly impact the way all of these social justice issues are addressed moving forward.

“We must make November 6th a day we will always remember,” said Rev. Jackson. “We must vote with passion on November 6th and change the political direction of our country.”

OPED

I Think I Now Know How Noah Felt Dr. James L. Snyder

L

ooking out the living room window the Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage sighed very deeply and said, “When will this stinking rain stop?”

I chuckled to myself very carefully not to let it come up to the surface of my face to let on to anybody in the room.

She turned around and said to me, “I am just about done with all this rain.”

With a fake grimace on my face I said, “I don’t know, but I’m done with it too.” I had to walk away at that point because I could not control the chuckles that were rising to the level of my face.

When I got some control of my emotions I thought to myself, this must be how Noah felt. Whenever it rains as it has been doing lately, I usually think of Noah. Only this time I was thinking of Noah’s wife.

Listening to my wife talk about the rain, I could not help but think maybe this is exactly what Noah’s wife was saying to him.

“Noah,” his wife said, “when will this stinking rain stop?” Then I can imagine her saying, “I can handle one day of rain or maybe two, but this is getting to be ridiculous.”

After all, Noah’s wife was just like anybody else’s wife especially the Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage.

Knowing my wife like I do, I know she likes to be in control. From the moment she gets up in the morning until she goes to bed at night, she likes to be in control. When something is going on that she cannot control, then we have a different situation.

Could that be said of Noah’s wife? This rain was coming down day after day after day for 40 days and 40 nights. Nothing had ever happened like that before. I believe Noah’s wife was a little frustrated with the fact that she was not in control with the rain.

My wife gets up every morning with a large list of things she wants to accomplish during the day. I need to be careful because sometimes she has one of her “HoneyDo-Lists” for you know who. She is very productive in her day and she hardly sits down to rest. She is proactive all day long.

When she decides to do something, she does it no matter what.

Now, for the last several weeks it has been raining just about every day. She enjoys yard work and even mowing. Now with the rain, it has disrupted her schedule.

The fact that she cannot control the rain carries with it a little hidden giggle inside of me. She takes pride in planning her day and fulfilling her plan to the letter. She is in control of everything.

Everything, that is, except the rain. I know the

rain is playing with her. Several times, especially this past week, the morning started out bright and sunny with barely a cloud in the air.

When my wife saw that, she was very excited.

“Finally,” she said almost hysterically, “I can do some mowing.”

With that, she was laughing and very excited and prepared to go out to do some mowing.

I think there was a cloud hidden somewhere watching for her because as soon as she got outside and got the mower running the rain started to come.

With a great deal of haste, she put the mower away and come inside to dry off.

As soon as she was inside and got dried off a little bit, the rain stopped, the clouds faded away and the sun was shining. She looked out and with a big smile on her face said, “Finally, this rain is over.”

She got outside, got the lawn mower out and ready to go and was mowing for five minutes and as I watched I could see that smile on her face. Nothing she enjoys more than riding that lawnmower and making the lawn look beautiful.

Suddenly, I heard thunder in the distance and then came the rain.

As quickly as possible, she put the lawnmower away and ran inside dripping with rain. I did my best to get out of her way because this was not one of her “Happy Moods.”

For the rest of the day she was working in her craft room and I heard her under her breath say, “Rain, rain go away and never come back any other day.” I sympathize with her because the rain had kept me from doing some things I wanted to do.

If rain is the only thing my wife cannot control she is a very lucky person. I, for instance, cannot control very many things in my life. I would like to, but it just is not in the cards for me.

I cannot imagine Noah sitting in that ark for over a year not being able to control anything. That is the essence of what faith is all about. If I can control a situation, why do I need God? I need to exchange my pride for faith in God. It reminds me of one of my favorite Bible verses. “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths” (Proverbs 3:5-6).

The best things in my life are those that are beyond my control where I can begin to see God at work in that situation.

Study: Lowering Blood Pressure Helps Prevent Mental Decline

By Marilynn Marchione CHICAGO (AP)— Lowering blood pressure more than usually recommended not only helps prevent heart problems, it also cuts the risk of mental decline that often leads to Alzheimer's disease, a major study finds.

It's the first time a single step has been clearly shown to help prevent a dreaded condition that has had people trying crossword puzzles, diet supplements and a host of other things in hope of keeping their mind sharp.

In the study, people treated to a top blood pressure reading of 120 instead of 140 were 19 percent less likely to develop mild cognitive impairment. They also had fewer signs of damage on brain scans, and there was a possible trend toward fewer cases of dementia.

“This is a big breakthrough,” said Dr. Jeff Williamson of Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in North Carolina. “It's more important than ever to work with your physician to

ensure that you have good blood pressure control.”

He led the study and gave results Wednesday at the Alzheimer's Association International Conference in Chicago. They're considered preliminary until published, expected later this year.

Independent experts cheered the news.

“We have long known that high blood pressure is bad for your heart. Now we're also learning it's bad for your brain,” said James Hendrix, director of global science initiatives at the Alzheimer's Association.

in the United States have high blood pressure under guidelines adopted last year that define it as a top number of 130 or more, rather than 140. Normal is under 120.

The federally funded early, when it became clear Roughly half of adults study was designed to test this in that lower pressure helped

prevent heart problems and deaths. But tests of thinking skills continued for two more years, and these new results were revealed on last week.

Researchers saw a 19 percent lower risk of mild cognitive impairment, or MCI, in the intensivetreatment group—285 cases versus 348 in the higher pressure group. About half of people with MCI develop dementia over the next five years.

“It's really more important to prevent MCI than dementia in some ways.

It's like preventing high cholesterol rather than a heart attack,” Williamson said.

There also were fewer

dementia cases in the intensive-treatment group but there were too few to say lower blood pressure was the reason. Dementia takes longer to develop than mild impairment does, so doctors think the difference may widen over time.

MRI scans on 454 participants showed that those in the lower pressure group had less white matter lesions—areas of scarring or damage from injury, such as inadequate blood supply.

“It matches” the other results on thinking skills and bolsters the evidence that lowering blood pressure helps, said Laurie Ryan, a dementia scientist at the National Institute on Aging.

Hopes Rise Again for a Drug to Slow Alzheimer's Disease CHICAGO (AP)—Hopes are rising again for a drug to alter the course of Alzheimer's disease after repeated failures.

Two drug companies said that an experimental therapy they are developing slowed mental decline by 30 percent in patients who got the highest dose. It also removed much of the sticky plaque gumming up their brains.

Alzheimer's is the most common form of dementia, and current drugs just ease symptoms.

The new drug is called BAN2401, from Eisai and Biogen. It failed to help in a study of 856 people with early Alzheimer's, but those who got the highest of five doses for 18 months declined less than those given dummy treatments.

Results were revealed at the Alzheimer's conference in Chicago.

NEWS Americans in Blended Families Cope with Toll of Deportation

By Matt Sedensky

B

OCA DEL RIO, Mexico (AP)—It’s almost as if Letty Stegall is there, back home in the United States, beside her daughter to prod her awake for school. When her husband goes to the grocery store, she fusses over the list with him. At the bar she helped run, she still gives regulars a warm welcome, and around the dinner table at night, she beams when she sees what her family managed to cook.

But Stegall’s face only appears on a screen, and her words come in unreliable cell connections and a barrage of texts. Lives

once lived together are divided by some 1,600 miles. A woman who married an American and gave birth to an American and who came to think of herself as American, too, is now deported to her native Mexico.

“I wish I was there. That’s all that I want,” she says of her life in Kansas City, Missouri. “I want my family back.”

As the United States takes a harder line on immigration, thousands who called the country home are being forced to go.

Often, they leave behind spouses and children with American citizenship and must figure out how to go on with families fractured apart. Studies have found

an estimated 8 million to 9 million Americans—the majority of them children—live with at least one relative who is in the country illegally, and so each action to deport an immigrant is just as likely to entangle a citizen or legal U.S. resident.

Stegall’s deportation means she could be banned from the U.S. for a decade. She prays paperwork seeking to validate her return through her marriage could wind through the system within two years, but there is no guarantee.

For now, she is a stranger in the vaguely familiar land she left as a 21-year-old in 1999, her phone and laptop the only

windows to a life that’s no longer hers. When her 17-year-old daughter, Jennifer Tadeo-Uscanga, arrives home from school, Stegall is there on FaceTime to greet her. She watches streaming feeds from 16 cameras at the bar she manages remotely. She gives Steve Stegall, her husband of six years, a goodnight kiss by pressing her lips to her cellphone screen.

“I lost everything,” she says.

“It’s just me.” ___

Stegall walks down streets of modest, brightly painted homes, past a tree dangling with yellow guavas and beside a butcher shop where red sausages are strung up like Christmas garland. Palms splash against clear blue skies, and swaths of purple flowers hold court below.

Beauty can be found everywhere in Boca del Rio, a small city along the Gulf of Mexico, but it’s hard for Stegall to see.

Even as she rounds the bend and a striking panorama of blue sea appears before her, it does little to lift her. She splashes the salt water on her face and rubs it on her arms. This would be a nice vacation, she says, but it’s all a cheap copy of the life she had a few months ago.

Stegall grew up two hours from here in Cosamaloapan, a flat, crop-dotted part of Veracruz, the state that hugs a broad

chunk of Mexico’s eastern coast.

Her parents’ furniture business afforded a comfortable existence, but drawn by the stories of a cousin who settled in Overland Park, Kansas, Stegall was convinced there was greater opportunity for her in the U.S. She paid a smuggler $3,000 to lead her across the Rio Grande.

She was caught and returned to Mexico but crossed successfully a day later. When she made it to the Kansas City area, she found a job busing tables, working her way up through a string of restaurants to become a server and bartender and manager.

She got married and had Jennifer, but later divorced. Then she fell in love with Steve, who came to see Jennifer as his own.

Stegall mastered the language and watched her paychecks grow. She and Steve bought a home, and soon Stegall became the heart of The Blue Line , the bar they ran together. When the Olympics aired, she’d drape herself in red, white and blue, and when the national anthem sounded, she’d nudge her husband to remove his hat as she stood solemnly, goose bumps covering her body.

All the while, her parents told of kidnappings and decapitations back in Cosamaloapan, of the cartel taking over and the family being forced out. They deserted their home and business, and fled for Boca del Rio.

She thanked God she had escaped. She didn’t think she’d ever return. ___

slips of paper,” Young said.

“The best way to describe them is that they’re literal fragments and literary fragments.”

It may take years before the story of the fragments is

pieced together. “You see in these pages the history of Black people in America,” concluded Young. “And we’re bringing the sons and daughters of Harlem home.”

dors that are nesting in the canyon for the first time in more than a half-century.

The lawsuit also alleges that the county failed to enforce mitigation measures and conditions of approval that had originally been placed on the project to lessen its potential environmental damage.

The lawsuit urges the court to place the drilling project on hold until an adequate review is conducted to fully disclose all of the risks and damages of drilling.

In addition to Ventura County, the suit also names Carbon California, the operator of 17 existing wells in Santa Paula Canyon, as a “real party in interest.”

The groups are represented by the law firm of ChattenBrown & Carstens of Los Angeles.

“Santa Paula Canyon is one of the crown jewels of Ventura County, with thousands of

residents and visitors enjoying this wilderness destination each year,” said Jeff Kuyper, executive director of Los Padres ForestWatch, a nonprofit conservation organization based in Santa Barbara that works to protect the Los Padres National Forest. “More drilling here will ruin the outdoor recreation experience while reducing local tourism dollars and harming local businesses.”

“With only outdated safeguards in place, Santa Paula Creek, the Santa Clara River and adjacent lands are at risk of dangerous oil spills,” said Ileene Anderson, senior scientist with the Center for Biological Diversity. “Failure to protect these beautiful places from oil-industry pollution and accidents will spell disaster for wildlife, including endangered California condors, as well as downstream farms and homes.”

“Our appeal will ensure the correct standard of environmental review is applied to minimize the negative economic and environmental impacts of spills, leaks, emissions, and other negative impacts of improperly processed and oil and gas permits,” said Kimberly Rivers, CFROG executive director.

“The county failed to disclose the many significant impacts associated with drilling new oil wells adjacent to a popular hiking trail and endangered species habitat,” said Amy Minteer, a partner at Chatten-Brown & Carstens, the firm representing the conservation groups. “A subsequent environmental impact report is required to thoroughly analyze and mitigate those impacts before this project can move forward.”

In Kansas City, the fear of being caught that Stegall had when she first arrived receded with each passing year. Donald Trump’s campaign and his tough rhetoric on illegal immigration piqued her attention and stirred a little worry, but he talked about catching rapists and murderers and gang members, and that wasn’t her. She carried her Social Security card, obtained through her marriage, work permit and driver’s license everywhere just in case.

She had just started backing out of the driveway to head to the gym on the morning of Feb. 26 when three cars careened in.

Agents hopped out, opened her door and told her she was under arrest. She urged them to look at her paperwork and thought it was all a mistake.

“I’m married to an American citizen,” she pleaded. “I have a citizen daughter.”

Six years earlier, police had pulled her over a few blocks from her house and charged her with misdemeanor drunken driving.

The arrest made authorities aware that she was in the U.S. illegally. Stegall spent a month in jail and her case went into the immigration system.

LAST WEEK’S SOLUTION

Watch, the Center for Biological Diversity, and Citizens for Responsible Oil & Gas then filed suit in Ventura County Superior Court over the county’s failure to conduct a new study of the environmental risks of the project.

A Ventura County Superior Court in April 2018 ruled in favor of the oil company and Ventura County. Today’s appeal, filed in the Second District Court of Appeals in Ventura, seeks review of that decision.

In their original lawsuit, the groups argue that the county failed to evaluate and reduce significant noise, visual and public-safety impacts that oil drilling expansion would cause to hikers on the trail. The county further neglected to fully consider the risks posed by oil spills from a pipeline directly above steelhead habitat in Santa Paula Creek, contaminants draining from the drill site into the creek and California con-

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 (844) 477-7869 or visit this Internet Web site WWW. STOXPOSTING.COM, using the file number assigned to this case 067203-CA. 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.

A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed

by CHRIS A. MCCARTHY in the Superior Court of California, County of Ventura.

THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that CHRIS A. MCCARTHY 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 8/16/2018 at 9:00 AM in Department J6 located at 4353 E. Vineyard Avenue, Oxnard, California 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 DE-154) 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. 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 for information regarding the trustee's sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www.qualityloan. com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-18-811756BF. 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. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the sale is set aside for any reason, including if the Trustee is unable to convey title, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the monies paid to the Trustee. This shall be the Purchaser's sole and exclusive remedy. The purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Trustor, the Trustee, the Beneficiary, the Beneficiary's Agent, or the Beneficiary's Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holders right's against the real property only.

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 for information regarding the trustee's sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www.qualityloan. com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-16-738301AB. 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. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the sale is set aside for any reason, including if the Trustee is unable to convey title, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the monies paid to the Trustee. This shall be the Purchaser's sole and exclusive remedy. The purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Trustor, the Trustee, the Beneficiary, the Beneficiary's Agent, or the Beneficiary's Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holders right's against the real property only.

ENTERTAINMENT

‘Heard it Through the Grapevine’ Post Office to be Named for the ‘Prince of Soul’ One of the most iconic voices from the early 60’s through the mid-80’s, as well as writer, producer and collaborator and Rock Hall of Fame member, as well as Grammy Lifetime Achievement honoree, Marvin Gaye will now have a Los Angeles post office re-named in his honor.

A

S a member of the now legendary Detroit based session musician group The Funk Brothers, Gaye was the drummer for the Marvelettes hit debut, “Please Mr. Postman,” which was the fledgling Motown label’s first number one hit, released in late 1961.

Over the next two plus decades Gaye spit out numerous solo hits such as "How Sweet It Is," "Ain't That Peculiar," "I Heard It Through the Grapevine" and his duet singles with such singers as Mary Wells and Tammi Terrell, Gaye was dubbed "The Prince of Motown" and "The Prince of Soul."

He won his first two Grammy’s in 1983 for the hit “Sexual Healing,” including being recognized for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance.

Only a year later, on the evening of April 1, 1984, after intervening in a physical altercation between his parents, Gaye was shot to death by his father Marvin Gaye Sr., on the eve of his 45th birthday in the home they shared in the West Adams District.

"Marvin Gaye's music has transcended generations and gave the '70s and '80s a sound," said Rep. Karen Bass, D-Los Angeles, who introduced HR 1496 to name the post office at 3585 S. Vermont Ave. the Marvin Gaye Post Office. Gaye was elected to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1987 and received a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 1996.

"His music was cathartic," biographer David Ritz said. "His songs were prayers, meditations, strategies for survival."

Octavia Spencer Brings Hair Mogul’s Story to Netflix

By Lynn Elber and Pablo Arauz Peña BEVERLY HILLS (AP)—A roundup of news from the Television Critics Association summer meeting, at which TV networks and streaming services are presenting details on upcoming programs.

Kendrick Lamar Is 'Fearless' in Tackling TV Guest Role

By Lynn Elber BEVERLY HILLS (AP)— It was Kendrick Lamar's friendship with 50 Cent that helped him get a guest role on Starz's “Power,” but Lamar came ready to work.

“He was so chill, like very cool, very humble,” said series creator and producer Courtney Kemp. “He's very kind of quiet and thorough and methodical.

He had prepared so much. He was ready.”

Kemp didn't give much away about the character Lamar plays in Sunday's episode airing at 8 p.m. EDT, but she said he indicated he was interested in playing a drug addict.

“He's really gifted, tremendously gifted. I mean it's a total transformation. It is not

a version of Kendrick Lamar that you've ever seen before. So it's very exciting,” Kemp told The Associated Press.

Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, a producer for “Power” who also appears in Sunday's show, got the ball rolling for his buddy Lamar, Kemp said Saturday.

“That is absolutely 50 Cent,” she said. “He is just a dynamo when it comes to bringing these things together, and he and Kendrick ... were hanging out and Kendrick said, ‘I'd really like to be on the show,' and you know it goes from there.”

Kemp, who took part in a panel discussion on the series Saturday, said the Grammyand Pulitzer-winning Lamar was “fearless” in approaching what Starz called his first role on a scripted TV series.

“Power” cast member

Larenz Tate, a self-described “huge” Lamar admirer, said he deliberately avoided going on set when the music star was working.

“I felt like I didn't want to disturb him because I knew this was a big moment for him,” Tate said. “I didn't want to throw that off because I would've been more into the Kendrick dynamic then what he's doing on the show at that moment. I didn't want to fan out, is my point.”

Whether Lamar will be back on the show, which is in its fifth season and stars Omari Hardwick as a drug kingpin and nightclub owner, is something Kemp wouldn't reveal before Lamar's episode airs. “Anyone can die in ‘Power' at any time! So I can't say,” Kemp said.

SUCCESS STORY Octavia Spencer is bringing the remarkable saga of Black haircare mogul Madam C.J. Walker to television.

Netflix said that Spencer will produce and star in a limited series about the outsized life of Sarah Breedlove, who was known professionally as Walker.

The eight-episode drama is based on the book “On Her Own Ground” by A’Lelia Bundles and includes basketball star LeBron James as a producer.

Walker became one of America’s first self-made female millionaires by creating and marketing hair products for AfricanAmericans at the turn of the 20th century.

Netflix said the series will detail the hostility, rivalries and tumultuous personal life that marked Walker’s life.

Spencer is an Oscar-winning actress whose credits include “The Shape of Water,” ‘‘Hidden Figures” and “The Help.”

A release date for “Madam C.J. Walker” was not announced.

MORE ‘MASTER’?

Netflix is standing by “Master of None” and Aziz Ansari despite a sexual-misconduct allegation against him earlier this year.

Cindy Holland, a programming executive for the streaming service, said there’s been thought given to a third season for the comedy starring and co-created by Ansari.

She added that Netflix would “certainly be happy” to make another “Master of None” season with Ansari, but didn’t commit to it or indicate what the production or release timeline might be. The show about a young, single actor in New York last aired in 2017.

The allegation that Ansari acted improperly on a date was published in January of this year by website Babe.net, which didn’t identify the accuser. The report sparked a

public debate, with some saying the claim shed light on aggressive sexual behavior and others dismissing it as a bad date that should have remained private.

In a January statement, Ansari acknowledged that he apologized to a woman in 2017 when she told him about her discomfort during a sexual encounter in his apartment that he believed to be consensual.

A PRINCESS, GROENING STYLE Matt Groening said his new adult cartoon series “Disenchantment” has a feminist component that sets it apart from his previous shows.

Groening spoke to reporters about bringing fresh talent to the Netflix show that included the voice actors Abbi Jacobson and Eric Andre.

He also highlighted the differences between the new project and his previous work, the long-running Fox series “The Simpsons.”

“One of the reasons that ‘The Simpsons’ is what it is, is because of the time constraints,” he said. “In this show, we’re able to let it breathe a little more which I find gratifying.”
