The Rio Mesa Marching Band gets into the spirit of Veteran’s Day during the parade in Oxnard Nov. 11.

Y A D S ’ N A R E T E V

PARADE IS A STAR-SPANGLED EVENT Strike up the band; the 2018 City of Oxnard Veteran’s Day Parade was a flag-waving tribute to service men and women, Nov. 11, who put aside their lives, so we can all be free.

T

HE parade kicked off at the intersection of 9th and C streets and proceeded to Plaza Park for the formal ceremony.

The staging area took on a partylike atmosphere as groups gathered and displayed the unity that brought them out on a sunny morning in California and the military.

Former Marine Lieutenant Wolfgang Burke served in the Marine Corps in Fort Legume, North Carolina and said the parade is a celebration for all the soldiers who served in the past and present.

“It’s a tribute to them, their families and our country,” he said. “These people give as much as they can.”

Retired Navy man Chris Coleman said the day is about honoring all the veterans and what they did for the country.

“We should honor all of them,” he said.

“My father was a Korean and World War II vet, and he told me not to join the Army, so I went Navy.”

The group planned to ride motorcycles in the parade.

“We’re American Legion Riders,”

Coleman said. “We’re a bunch of guys from the American Legion, and are veterans, sons of veterans that love to ride motorcycles, so we got together and formed a group, and we ride in the parades for people who can’t do the ride, march or walk.”

Burke wants all the current soldiers to be safe and protect the U.S.A. “Thank you for your service and do well,” he said.

Miguel Aguilar was pretty busy practicing his saxophone, playing for the Rio Mesa Marching Band before taking part in the parade and said being part of the experience

OXNARD VETERAN’S DAY CEREMONY IS A MOVING TRIBUTE

Oxnard-As compound disasters hit Ventura County Nov. 8 and 9, the City of Oxnard stepped up, did its part, and did what it could to help with the fire in Ventura County and shootings in Thousand Oaks.

Police Chief Scott Whitney told the crowd at the Nov. 13, city council meeting that Ventura County had a tough and busy week, but he is inspired by how the county comes together during a crisis.

“Everybody in the City of Oxnard should be proud of how the police and fire department responded,” he said.

cost many people their homes and lives.

“I am the junior post commander of American Legion Post 48 in Oxnard,” he said. “There are a lot of U.S. Army veterans that took two tours in Vietnam; we thank you for your service."

He also recognized the 100th

anniversary of the signing of the World War I armistice in 1918.

On the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, an armistice was declared marking the end of the Great War (World War I) that was a global war that originated in Europe.

Oxnard--The Veteran’s Day Ceremony at Plaza Park in Oxnard, Nov. 11, was both a solemn and joyous event that moved the many people attending.

Soldiers were treated to free lunches as residents approached them and thanked them for their service and wished them well in all their endeavors.

Part of the presentation was a performance by the Rio Mesa High School Marching Band, along with placing a wreath at the Veterans Memorial at the park.

Master of Ceremonies Gerald Reyes opened the program and said they considered not having the program because of the shooting in Thousand Oaks, plus the fire in Ventura County that

Oxnard Police Chief Scott Whitney tells the city council about how his officers helped the victims in the Thousand Oaks tragedy and aided firemen in the effort were so many people lost their homes.

At 11 a.m. the program halted and the church bells in Santa Clara rang, commemorating the armistice. n Ceremony, see page 6

THOUSAND OAKS Once the city learned about an active shooter, the police department sent seven police officers to the scene to aid and assist before Thousand Oaks requested help.

“We had two police officers that were off duty that were inside the club once it happened and we had three officers who lived nearby that self-deployed and heard about it on social media, so we had 10 of our police officers at the scene," he said. "The two officers that were inside provided first aid and worked with many of the patrons and got them out of the bar.” n Oxnard, see page 6

In what means typically a rubber stamp approval for a consent agenda item, turned into a full discussion with a lot of unhappy residents, Nov. 13, as the Oxnard City Council approved the second reading of an ordinance that changes the council’s method of business to a committee system.

The council will hold committee meetings on the second and fourth Tuesday of each month, where they will examine items and recommend them for approval or denial when the full council meets on the first and third Tuesday.

Mayor Pro Tem Carmen Ramirez asked for the item to be removed from the consent agenda and said the change could be difficult, but something has to be done to make City Council meetings more efficient.

“I’d like us to adopt it but keep looking to make sure that we’re being efficient and effective and getting more people involved,” she said. “This past election, we didn’t have the greatest turnout, and that’s a disappointment even though many of us survived that election.”

She said it’s something the city needs to watch and ensure the people are able to come and participate.

“We need better communication with our community,” she said. “I do support it; I know a lot of people have questions about it, so I wanted to speak to that rather than just passing that and moving through.”

During public comments, Lauraine Effress said she divides the council meetings into two pieces, process, and product.

“I do not think the changing of the city code has received the kind of public attention, dissemination to the public outreach that it deserves,” she said. “When we were going to divide into districts, we had six meetings over several months, and we did our very best to inform the public about what is happening. That did not happen with an enormous change to the city code.”

The ordinance had one reading.

She found this unusual and said an ordinance is only read once in an emergency.

“I don’t think there is an emergency for a change in how we function, so I’m not sure how this happened and why the ordinance wasn’t read twice which would have given us more time,” she said. “I spent a lot of time thinking about this when I wasn’t working on the election and thinking about the fire, and many questions arose in my mind about how the city would function, how I would function if I had an interest in more than one thing. I asked myself why you would choose this model when there are many other models we haven’t looked at?”

Pat Brown said there had not been enough discussion about changing the meeting format.

“The first thing I am thinking of is the Sunshine Law, so enough people get to come here and say something,” she said. “If people have to take time off from work to do that, people aren’t going to do that. We need to find some way that younger people besides senior citizens who aren’t employed have a chance to get up and say something or write a note and send it in.”

Audrey Keller said the city moved to do away with committees right before the election and she is wondering why that was.

“I know there is a new city manager, and welcome, but I think a new broom sometimes sweeps too much clean,” she said. “I think there are unintended consequences to this move and one of them, I will speak to

OPD arrest four On Oct. 28, 2018, homeowners residing in the 1500 block of Windshore Way, reported to the Oxnard Police Department that their home had been broken into and that several valuables (purses, jewelry, and electronics) were stolen. The intruders entered the house through an open window that was only secured by a window screen.

After receiving the report, burglary detectives partnered with patrol officers assigned to the neighborhood where the burglary occurred and quickly developed leads on whom the suspects were. Being that the victim residence is located within a multi-unit building equipped with surveillance cameras; officers were able to identify the suspects as City of Ventura residents Garett James Clark, 37 years old and Sunni Chapman, 26 years old.

Officers served a search warrant at Clark’s residence located in the 100 block of Elliott Court in the city of Ventura. Both Clark and Chapman were at the residence during the service of the warrant and promptly arrested.

The majority of the stolen property was located at the residence.

On Nov. 8, at approximately 10:40 a.m., a resident heard a knock at their front door. The resident, being that they were home alone, decided not to answer the door.

The two suspects believing that no one was home forced their way into the residence. The resident after hearing the intruders inside of the home was able to hide in a bathroom. The resident contacted family members who in turn called the police. The intruders left the residence prior to police arrival, but the alert resident was able to film the intruders with his cell phone as they left the house.

Several personal belongings were stolen from the residence.

Detectives from the Property Crimes Unit reviewed the cell phone video and immediately recognized one of the intruders

as Gilberto Hernandez, 22 years old. Detectives near his home later located Hernandez.

When contacted by detectives, Hernandez was in the company of another subject named Jose Morales, 20 years old. Detectives identified Hernandez as the second person involved in the burglary.

Officers found property stolen from the residence inside a vehicle belonging to Hernandez.

Hernandez, a resident of the city of Oxnard, was arrested earlier this year by Property Crimes Detectives for committing a separate residential burglary in Oxnard.

Residents are encouraged to be “Partners in Public Safety” and are reminded to report suspicious activity to police.

Residents can report anonymously, and translators are available 24/7.

Anyone with information regarding criminal activity is encouraged to contact the Oxnard Police Department at 805-3857740 or Ventura County Crime Stoppers, 800-222-8477, and www. venturacountycrimestoppers.org.

Officers discovered the weapon the woman possessed with a toy cap gun.

OPD uses electronic control device on a female On Nov. 13, 2018, at approximately 3:27 p.m., officers from the Oxnard Police Department responded to a 911 call about a female in the street waving a firearm.

The first officer on scene found her on a residential street in possession of a small revolver. She appeared distressed, screaming, and suffering from a mental health crisis.

More officers responded and contained her to the center of the street. The female put the gun down but was still unresponsive to the directions given by the officers. While distracted, an officer ran in to separate her from the firearm at the same time another officer deployed his Electronic Control Device (taser), and she was taken into custody without further incident.

Officers took the female to a local medical facility for a mental health hold evaluation. Although the revolver appeared to be real, it was discovered that it was a black toy cap gun.

The surrounding schools were placed on temporary lockdown during the incident.

Council approves water study amendment after much debate

By Chris Frost chris@tricountyserntry.com The water quality issue in Channel Islands Harbor led to the most extensive debate and most passionate responses during the Nov. 13, Oxnard City Council meeting, as the group approved an ongoing water study and nutrient plan just in time for the rains anticipated on Nov. 21.

The study will examine the runoff from the land and provide the city with insight as to why the harbor experienced a water degradation and fish kill in 2018.

The cost of the study was a sticking point as the sampling study was projected to cost over $306,000.

City Manager Alex Nguyen said he'd received several emails asking him to delay the action, but the staff doesn’t want to take any chances with the weather and has been discussing the issue for many months.

“After the Channel Islands Task Force meeting on Oct. 22, I directed staff to bring this back to the council as soon as possible, and this was the earliest meeting we could come back to,” he said. “There is one thing I want to make clear. We did not sneak this item on this week’s agenda to take advantage of the tragedies surrounding us. To sneak this through… that was suggested in one of the emails I received over the weekend."

He said the meeting is part of the public process and not a showdown with the council or staff.

“It doesn’t need to be a battleground,” he said. “It’s where we have deliberation, public input, and discussion. “Staff ’s job is to bring forth our professional recommendations. I appreciate that our city council has a different job, they need to take our perspective and other perspectives into account, and the public also has this ability to weigh in, which some of you did in email form.

This is the deliberation process of the legislative body. Council can then choose to approve the recommendation, deny it; they can defer it or do something that has become a dying art in this country which is they can fashion a compromise solution.”

He said the city needs to get the sample that produces runoff, or the first rain of the season that will carry the peak amount of nutrients for the year.

“Our concern is if we delay that contract, we could miss the first, what they call flush of the year and we would not get an accurate picture of the nutrients going into the harbor,” Nguyen said. “Without that, it’s hard to determine what our course of action should be.

The city is working with its state representatives to acquire grants, he said, but needs data to apply for the money.

Oxnard Special Districts Manager Sandra Burkhart told the group that in June 2018, the city did mobilize departments because of the water degradation and set up a response team and

hotline number for the public and performed daily water quality testing across the harbor.

“On July 5, the city council approved an amendment agreement A 7620 for $72,650 that was funded by the general fund that was the beginning stages of this effort and covered the water quality sampling, some nutrient sampling, program analysis and several presentations to the public,” she said. “Those funds have now been expended, and we are moving into the next phase of addressing this issue.”

The city released a new request for proposal (RFP) in May 2018, she said, and in July the council awarded Aquatic Bioassay and Consulting Laboratories agreement A-8093.

“The amendment is to the new contract, 8093, totaling $306,045 and this will again utilize the work the Bioassay did in the prior contract, as well as determining the causes, potential solutions and long-term plan for the issue at Channel Islands Harbor,” she said.

The work falls into three buckets, she said, including the nutrient sources and sink study, the framework for long-term monitoring and the maintenance and operation of the new remote sensors the city just purchased.

“The third bucket is the hydraulic modeling study for the harbor,” she said.

"Cost for the study is broken into five Waterway Zones with the highest total falling to zone one,

55 percent or $153, 200, followed

by Seabridge 4 with $64,065 or 23 percent, then Westport 2, at $36,211 or 13 percent and Waterways 2 at $25,069 or 9 percent.

“The general fund is paying for the hydrology study,” Burkhart said. “The city did look at multiple scenarios for how to calculate the split, and we consulted with MBS, our professional consultants that provide us with a lot of our technical assistance, and we asked them for their suggestions, and there were five or six scenarios that we ran through.”

The city looked at the total parcels, weighting against the total revenues, levies, and levies collected from each district.

"We looked at how many samples were collected across the harbor and weighted that out against each district,” she said.

“Ultimately, the geographical split made the most sense, and that’s what MBS recommended to us.”

Assistant City Attorney Ken Roselle two MOU’s were in play, a 2007 Westport MOU and a 2002 Seabridge MOU that was entered into the original development for Westport and Seabridge and laid out different scenarios including what would happen if the Mandalay Power Plant closed.

“The thing to remember is that the allocation agreements would only be imposed if remediation measures were imposed,” he said.

The story will continue in the Nov. 23, Tri County Sentry.

Oxnard Public Library examines World War 1 The Oxnard Public Library celebrated the 100th anniversary of the armistice signing that ended World War I, Nov. 8, as American Legion Pot 48 Veterans Bill Winter and Dale Dean enlightened the crowd about the horrors of the war and its toll on human life.

Dean told the audience the legion was the only group with origins from the United States Congress in 1919 and was set up to help World War I veterans primarily.

He showed off a vintage World War I backpack but didn’t clean it up for the presentation.

“I was told many times that when you have something that is cherished history, never try to paint it or launder it,” he said. “This is the way I got it, and this is the way I’ve kept it. To keep it open I stuffed it with newspapers, but it’s cool, and they would wear it on their backs or shoulder, whichever is handiest for them.”

He also brought a flat cap that soldiers used for marching and a box for ammunition shells, plus a tool that soldiers used to clean their guns.

“They took an old rag tied it through the holes (at the top) and ran it up-and-down the barrel to clean it up,” he said. “I didn’t know much about World War I. My mother had uncles, ranchers and farmers, that were in World War I. I grew up in South Dakota and Veteran's Day was a big deal.”

He said two of his uncles started an American Legion club near their ranch which consisted of a building the high school played basketball in, plus a big kitchen and eating area in the basement, which meant events like birthdays and wedding dances at the venue.

Winter said his impression of the armistice was that on the 11th day of the 11th month at 11 a.m. the opposing sides would stop killing each other.

He noted during the World War I era, all the population centers were on the east coast, and they didn’t call many people from California out so much.

“There were 20 million souls who lost their lives in the first World War, 4.7 million Americans were mobilized, and more than 116,000 lives were lost, including 13,956 people from New York were lost, and California provided 150,000 people to the war effort,” he said.

“After the human population was the horses, we never think about that, but we were dependant on the

horse to go from place-to-place.”

An assassination in Serbia, now called Yugoslavia, led to America’s involvement during World War I, Winter said, with the predominate aggressor being Germany and Austria/Hungary. When Germany first attacked, they went to the eastern front against Russia, not forcefully, but there was a significant attack through Belgium and into France.

“We got involved in 1916 and were participating in the war for two years,” he said. “The more you look at what the armistice is, the more you learn about today and the peace we are experiencing. Many of you know about the War Memorial at Plaza Park, and this memorial commemorates all the wars."

The population of New York City was 5.6 million people, Boston was 748,000, Pittsburg was 588,000, and then you look at little Oxnard, he pointed out the city had barely 4,000 souls during the First World War, and 14 soldiers lost their lives.

“The Great War, so it was called, took its toll on the world, and the armistice was supposed to be a breath of sunshine, a ray of peace, in fact, there was a poem that was celebrated that said, “When will all

man’s good be every man’s rule,” he said. “It was a cry for peace in the hope of understanding.”

Winter said one life changed the world as a Serbian national killed Archduke Ferdinand that led to everyone entering the war.

“There’s a plaque in Sarajevo that says from this place on the 28th of June in 1914, by Gavrilo Princip assassinated the heir to the AustriaHungary throne, Franz Ferdinand and his wife Sophia,” he said. “When you look at this plaque, in a way, it’s a celebration of the nationalism, and the Serbians are proud of what happened there. To them, it’s not the beginning of a war, but something they want to highlight, and it started a chain reaction that would engulf the world.”

He noted the armistice was the beginning of World War II, as a young Adolph Hitler saw how Germany was humiliated during World War I and vowed never to let it happen again.

“That drove him to do the things that he did,” Winter said.

“The defeat of Germany was so hard on him; he would never let go of the national humiliation that occurred,” he said. “On the day of the armistice, the forces came

together; it was General Pershing, Marshal Foch and some of the German leaders sat at a table in a rail car and signed the instruments of surrender. Hitler made France capitulate and surrender to him during the Second World War in the same rail car. He brought the rail car back to Berlin, and it was going to part of his 1,000-year Reich.”

Winter said the German people were called “The Huns” or the Teutonic aggressor from the north against the Roman empire.

“Here they are, hard chargers,” he said. “How would you like to see that in the middle of the night?”

Ceasefires have a habit of falling apart, he said, and before the Vietnam War, President Kennedy had to make serious decisions to avert using nuclear arms.

“We are in a constant state of armistice as long as no one pulls the trigger or the fire alarm,” Winter said. “Reagan believed in peace through strength, Truman, as odd as it may seem, served in the First World War and was an officer.

When you learn about Truman, he looks like he belongs on a farm, not on a battlefield. They put him in charge of a company, and they got rid of every lieutenant before him. They said this guy (Truman) we can get rid of him in a day, but he stood strong and showed that he had prowess, he stood up to the men, guided them, and he became vice president on Roosevelt’s fourth term. When he went into the office, he had no idea about the Manhattan Project until the day Roosevelt passed away in Warm Springs Georgia, and they called him and said, Mr. Truman, I have some bad news for you, you’re the president, and Eleanor Roosevelt said may God have mercy on your soul.”

Winter said Nov. 11, 1918, was a day to end all days, that started with the armistice which was supposed to be the end of the killing. It was signed at 5 a.m. and would go into effect at 11 in the morning.

“The generals said we are going to keep fighting and we’re going, and we lost over 2,000 souls in those five hours,” he said. “This makes us think about people in power.

Sometimes we have to question authority, and we have to stand up to things that we believe in.”

He pointed out that no one knew the forces behind the armistice.

“The treaty was signed in a rented rail car in the early hours in France, the nation disgraced was Germany, France was almost erased, and the nation that wanted an end to all war and supply peace was America,” Winter said.

have regular eight-hour jobs, but I do support the city manager. He has seen a weakness in our system, but I don’t support that it came this quickly without the input of every single council member that will be the city manager’s boss.”

Mayor Tim Flynn said he took a lot of phone calls about the item and he told them consistently that reorganizing how the city does its business has been an ongoing process for the last year and he brought the issue forward for a more robust committee system.

“We are the size of Santa Barbara, and Ventura combined," he said.

"Oxnard is larger. We’ve tried to operate a part-time government with a full-time set of requirements.

We have staff members who come to work in at 8 a.m., they leave at 6 p.m. and when we have council meetings and outside meetings that is in addition to their duties.”

He said many of the council members work full time as council members and city employees are full-time employees.

“There is a balance, and I’m

hearing that people are open to achieving that balance,” he said.

“The things that are sometimes disturbing to the people are if you hold the committee meetings during the day, will all members of the public attending the meetings in the evening be able to attend?”

He said people work and are not retired so they might not be able to attend those meetings.

“I don’t know of any government, and I have been a teacher of political science and government for the last 30 years, where there is not a government that operates on a fulltime basis that we are transitioning to without full-time salaries for the council members,” he said.

Nguyen said the new system would be reviewed in one-year to see how it’s going, and the council can tweak the format.

“I view the Channel Islands Task Force as an extraordinarily useful series of community meetings.

“There is no formal conduit or mechanism if you have two council members at a task force where they can take any action,” he said. “It’s

essentially a community meeting, and there was no mechanism to bring back the full presentation to the full council. This is why council committees, in my opinion, are more functional.” Nguyen said people complain that all the items during the regular city council meeting will be on the consent agenda and approved without debate.

“I have news for you; the consent calendar has always been in use,” he said. “The difference is that it’s more likely that a committee of the council, a formal committee that takes votes and makes recommendations is going to vet these items.” He still challenges the notion that public participation can only happen on Tuesday night.

“In my experience, the majority of residents don’t even have the luxury of coming here on a Tuesday night,” Nguyen said. “A combination of doing the committees and the Sunshine Ordinance where everything is published 12 days in advance, and if an item is going through a committee, that’s an additional seven days.”

my own experience, I serve on the parks commission, and the harbor task force and both of them, in my opinion, have been effective. We have become advocates for the city, we work for the city for free, and I think it’s a shame to disband these organizations without knowing.”

Councilman Bryan MacDonald said he'd heard that several times and that is not true. “These committees will replace other committees we already have in place,” he said.

City Manager Alex Nguyen agreed with MacDonald.

Councilman Bert Perello said he voted against changing the city’s meeting format to committees because the new council members in district five and six would be illserved by such a change right before an election.

“I do wholeheartedly support our city manager and attempting to make something better in the city,” he said. “The system we have does not work well. The issue with the people attending the committee meetings, it is during a working hour for most men and women who

“It’s a beautiful school, and my parents told me to do my best,” he said.

Dad Pablo Aguilar told his son that Veteran’s Day is important for the United States.

"We’ll take lunch with more family members after this event,” he said.

Pablo Aguilar Jr. also plays the saxophone but admitted his brother does better than he does.

“My brother is more advanced than me,” he said. “This is a special day for the soldiers who died during the war. We talk about that at school, and my teachers told me what all the holidays were.”

Dale Dean volunteered, represented the American Legion and said the parade had over 60 entries.

“We’re blown away and trying to make sure it’s well organized and staged correctly,” he said. “The participants are great. We’re the ones who are fumbling around, but we’ve got a lot of room, and the police have set everything up real nice for us.”

Dean believes that today’s soldiers need all the support we can give them.

“They are sacrificing a great deal, not just themselves, but their families and children through deployment after deployment,” he said. “I feel terrible about that.”

Honorary Parade Grand Marshall Navy Captain Rafi Miranda said he is great friends with the Vietnam Veterans of Ventura County and has done a couple of circuits with them.

“I believe my friendship with them, Manuel Gonzales reached out to me and Martha Guillen came out and asked me to participate in this parade,” Miranda said. “This is incredible to be surrounded by the community and all the American patriots; it’s an amazing feeling and atmosphere. With the nonsense and violence that happened in Thousand Oaks and the fire; this is what the community needs right now. To get together and thank all of the veterans.”

Mayor Pro Tem Carmen Ramirez said Oxnard has always given its sons and daughters to serve their country, whether the public likes the war or not.

“We have to recognize that sacrifice, their families sacrifice, the city’s sacrifice, and the people; some of them made the ultimate sacrifice,” she said. “I have ancestors who served in the Civil War, World War I, my father was in World War II with his brothers. There was no saving Private Ramirez, but they all came home.

I have two nephews who served in Afghanistan and Iraq. They’re home now and safe, but many people are in harm’s way. “We have to do better.”

Her message to the soldiers around the world is simple; thank you for your service and come home safely.

"Get everything you need to live the life you are entitled to, more than the rest of us because they sacrificed so much,” she said.

Grand Marshall Sergeant Major Martin Vasquez had a wall of medals on his chest including a purple heart he received from injuries sustained during his first tour of Vietnam. He told The Sentry that being the Grand Marshall of the parade is an honor and pleasure.

“We’re celebrating one of the greatest days of the year, Veteran’s Day for all members of the armed forces. Army, Navy, Air Force, the Coast Guard, and Marine Corps. I spent 30 years in the Marine Corps, and I am proud to say I served this glorious country, the United States of America.”

His advice to today’s soldiers is to do what they are told to do and build on the tradition their forefathers created during World War I, World War II, Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan.

“Keep our country free,” Vasquez said.

Mayor Tim Flynn said the parade is the first one Oxnard had in decades.

“It has a strong tradition in Oxnard,” he said. “It’s a city that has a military base next to it, the Navy and Coast Guard base. For decades we went without having a Veteran’s parade, and now we finally have it, and it’s really exciting.”

TRI-COUNTY SENTRY, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 2018

OPED Not Everything in Life Is Automatic Dr. James L. Snyder Two days in the year I don’t like. Somebody is thinking it is my wife’s birthday and our wedding anniversary.

I worked that out a long time ago.

My birthday is two days before the Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage and our anniversary is three weeks after our birthday. No way can I forget that.

When my wife gives me a birthday card with some gift it reminds me that I have two days to reciprocate.

And reciprocate, I do very well. I love it when a plan comes together.

I remember my wife’s birthday and I remember our wedding anniversary, but more often than not, I cannot remember the years. I do not know how old my wife is. At least, that’s my story. And, I am not sure how long we’ve been married.

I know we have been married long enough to work out many things.

The two days I’m not very happy with are the days when we turn the clock forward an hour and then turn the clock backward an hour. I still do not know why in the world we do that. We gain an hour in the spring, but then we lose an hour in the fall.

What's the sense in all that?

I finally figured out what the sense of all that is. It is to confuse me, in particular. It is not that I am easily confused, but rather, I confuse easily.

If that makes sense, I have a bridge I want to sell you.

Why would you want to gain something and then give it back a couple months later?

I grew up in the nontechnical age. I had to wind my watch every day to make sure it had the right time. It was not like it is today worth the time is set automatically.

I look at my cell phone and the time is updated automatically. I look at our TV set and see that the time is updated automatically. I like that.

My problem is that I like it too much. I have become accustomed to things being adjusted automatically.

Now they have cars that part automatically and you can be sure I’m not going to buy one. I am satisfied with the automatic setting of my clock and TV. When I was in high school, I worked part-time for a woman. I mowed the grass and cleaned inside the house. One big thing she had in the house was about 25 clocks. I’m serious. Twenty-five clocks that all had to be set manually.

The first time I did it, I did not realize that each clock was set differently. You go upstairs and the clocks were 15 minutes faster than the clocks on the first floor so she would not be late for an appointment.

Being my employer, it would h a v e

been nice for her to explain that to me. But, as most employers do, they do not explain everything to their employees.

I was the kind of employee that liked to impress my employer with how good I was.

It was in the fall and we were to set the clocks back one hour.

I thought she

would appreciate the fact that I went around and reset all 25 of her clocks.

After all, I was doing something on my own that needed done.

The thing I did not know of course, the clocks were all set different on different levels of the house. I went around and

set all 25 clocks to the same time. I was so happy.

I did not tell her because I wanted her to be surprised.

I was anxious to hear her commend me for a “job well done.”

I was not prepared for what she was going to do.

When I arrived on her property, she comes out yelling and screaming at me at the top of her lungs.

Trust me, she had lungs.

At first, I could not understand what she was so upset about.

“Did you,” she said hysterically, “reset all the clocks in my house?”

I smiled back at her and said quite cheerfully, “Yes, ma’am, I did.”

Courtesy keeps me from quoting her right here. It was more than French she was yelling back at me.

I have never been yelled at so much in my life and I did not really understand why.

I stayed away from her for a couple of days and then I was working for her husband at his store. When I walked in, he looked at me and laughed hysterically.

I was not sure what he was laughing at that he motioned me to come over. So, I did.

“My wife,” he said between laughs, “told me what you did the other day.”

Then he broke into some more hysterical laughter.

Why he was so cheerful about the incident was beyond me at the time.

Then he sat me down and explained the whole situation to me. I must confess when he finished telling me the whole story, I joined him in some hysterical laughter. We kept this to ourselves for as long as I worked there.

I thought of what Paul said, “Let’s not get tired of doing what is good, for at the right time we will reap a harvest—if we do not give up” (Galatians 6:9).

Not everything is automatic, some things you have to work for.

OPED

Succeeding Against the Odds

By Marian Edelman Wright After two years of divisive, hateful rhetoric from the highest levels of government, the profoundly inhumane treatment of immigrant families, and the placing of corporate profits ahead of the basic needs of children—the poorest age group in America—the results of Tuesday’s election instilled in many that most precious resource: hope. Change began sweeping across our country this week, bringing a new, diverse set of faces into the halls of Congress, governors’ mansions and statehouses.

With them comes a new opportunity to improve the odds for children.

We look to the two years ahead with more hope and determination that incumbent and new leaders alike will commit to common sense, fiscally responsible and compassionate policies to help end child poverty and inequality in America. Every child deserves health care and food, schools that are equitably funded, and protection from relentless gun violence. Every child needs a level playing field and an end to the Cradle-to-Prison Pipeline® crisis.

But it is not our political leaders that give me the most hope—it is our courageous and resilient young people. I was reminded of that yesterday as the Children’s Defense Fund (CDF) honored five Washington, D.C. metro-area high school students at our annual Beat the Odds® celebration. The Beat the Odds program identifies and rewards young people who have overcome tremendous adversity, demonstrated academic excellence and are giving back to their communities. By providing them college scholarships, leadership skills and more, the program supports these astounding youths—who too many people would write off—to become the next generation of effective servant leaders. Because of CDF’s Beat the Odds program hundreds of young people who have persevered and overcome profound family

challenges, homelessness, parental incarceration, drug and alcohol addiction, neglect and abuse, or gun violence have been able to attend college and become outstanding adults. They are doctors and lawyers, teachers and Peace Corps volunteers, and responsible parents. They are living proof that no one should ever give up on a child.

The five students who received honors and scholarships at this week’s Beat the Odds celebration are no different. Dajanae Dennis was delighted when her one and only sister was born in 2016. Within two months, however, her sister began having seizures and was diagnosed with Dravet Syndrome—a rare, genetic, lifelong form of epilepsy.

Since then, Dajanae has had to step in to care for her sister while her mom works long hours trying to make ends meet. Balancing academics with extracurricular commitments while acting as a primary support for her mother, her sister and four brothers has been challenging, but Dajanae continues to strive for greatness. Last year she was accepted into the Upward Bound, PreCollege Program at the University of Maryland and now hopes to be

the first one in her immediate family to graduate from high school and attend college.

Dieudonne Kazzembe was just a small child when his mother, father, and grandfather were killed during the Second Congo War in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

In its aftermath Dieudonne and his surviving family members relocated to Uganda when he was five.

Dieudonne showed great initiative trying to learn English and emerged as a leader amongst his peers. In 2014, Dieudonne found out he would live out his dream of moving to the United States—a flight that ignited his desire to become a commercial airline pilot. He now lives with his foster parents and continues to help his peers while passionately pursuing his interest in STEM. Sarah O’Shay lives at home with three autistic brothers helping out when needed. Since age three Sarah has had a stutter which made her a target of bullying at school. Despite these challenges, in 10th grade, Sarah was one of the first students from her middle school to gain acceptance to the highly selective Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology. She had to travel

upwards of three hours every day to and from school and didn’t know anyone there when she arrived, but she adjusted due to her determination to excel. She currently has a GPA of 4.3 and is highly committed to the Minds Matter club at her school, which seeks to raise awareness and reduce stigmas about mental health.

Sarah plans to continue serving as a mental health advocate and aspires to study computer science in college.

As a young child living in Peru, Danitza Karen Verano Roman experienced many hardships including being separated from her mother who had moved to the United States. In 2015, Danitza was reunited with her mother after many years of being apart. Danitza struggled to reestablish a relationship with her mother while adapting to a new culture in a new country but embraced her challenges in order to overcome them. Within two years of arriving in the United States she picked up enough English to be removed from English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) class and now mentors ESOL students.

She also is enrolled in honors classes and a frequent community volunteer.

Danitza dreams of helping others

and aspires to become a lawyer.

Betty Pei-Lin Xiong and her mother came to the United States from China seeking a better life after Betty’s father abandoned them. In 2016, Betty was hit by a car. While in the emergency room she wondered why she didn’t feel any pain or remember the accident.

After discharge Betty spent countless hours trying to understand what had happened to her which ultimately ignited a passion for neuroscience and biological sciences. Although she missed a lot of school and dealt with headaches and other injuries, she was able to maintain a 4.0 GPA and stay on the honor roll. Betty aspires to study medical sciences in college and dreams of becoming a neuroscientist.

These amazing young people have beaten formidable odds stacked against them, challenging our notions of what is possible and inspiring us all to persevere despite setbacks. But the truth is, our children should not have to struggle so hard to beat the odds.

You and I and our political leaders must improve and even the odds for children, especially children of color and those living in poverty. Across our country children are crying out for us to protect them from hunger and homelessness, abuse and neglect, and gun violence and bigotry. It’s time to hear and help them. If the challenge seems too great or our political system seems too broken, just remember the example set by these and other brave young people across our nation and commit to fight for their future and countless others like them.

Marian Wright Edelman is President of the Children's Defense Fund, whose Leave No Child Behind’s mission is to ensure every child a Healthy Start, a Head Start, a Fair Start, a Safe Start and a Moral Start in life and successful passage to adulthood with the help of caring families and communities.

The Man Behind the ‘Blue Wave’ in Texas

By Jeffrey L. Boney The 2018 midterm elections have come and gone here in the great state of Texas, and all across Texas, especially in Harris County and Fort Bend County, Democrats faired extremely well. The results of many of the key county and statewide political races in Texas were a shock to many voters and political observers.

Nearly every race that had a Democratic candidate in it was won by a Democrat. African American women faired extremely well as a result of this “blue wave” thanks in large part to a man who generated excitement all across the state of Texas and ran one of the most competitive statewide elections in modern times – Beto O’Rourke.

Many would argue that it was their well-run campaigns and endorsements that produced such wonderful results, but it is difficult to ignore the impact that Democratic Senate candidate Beto O’Rourke actually had on this year’s midterm election results.

In the most high-profile statewide race of the 2018 midterm elections, Rep. Beto O’Rourke (D-El Paso) did for Texas Democrats what no other candidate since former President Barack Obama could have ever done. O’Rourke expanded the electorate to include first-time voters and younger voters, while creating an epic nationwide political movement that should serve as the blueprint for any candidate thinking about running in 2020.

Although he fell short in his quest to unseat Republican incumbent Senator Ted Cruz, Beto O’ Rourke helped flip many Texas counties Democratic, along with

several traditionally Republicanheld congressional seats across the state. Out of over 8 million votes cast, Cruz only won the contest by a little over 200,000 votes against O’Rourke—51% to 48%.

The down ballot races had a different outcome, however, thanks to O’Rourke’s star power.

What some were calling a potential “blue wave” turned out to be more like a “blue tsunami” for Democrats, as nearly every countywide race from district attorney, county commissioner, county judge and various judge seats in Harris County, Fort Bend County and many other counties, were contested and the majority flipped from Republican to Democrat—thanks in large part to the impressive campaign ran by Rep. O’Rourke.

In Harris County, longtime Republican incumbent County judge, Ed Emmett, was defeated by 27-year-old Democratic newcomer Lina Hidalgo. All of the Democrats who ran for countywide positions in Harris County, including the highly profiled African American female candidates who were on the ballot for judge seats, won their respective races.

In Fort Bend County, voters made history by electing Brian Middleton as the first African American district attorney in the history of the County. He is also the first Democrat to hold the office of top prosecutor in 26 years.

In another casualty of O’Rourke’s political influence, Fort Bend county voters also voted to elect Democratic nominee and current Fort Bend ISD trustee KP George as their new County judge, versus reelecting Republican incumbent

Robert “Bob” Hebert who has been in office for fifteen years. All of the Democrats who were on the ballot for judge seats and county commissioner races in Fort Bend County also won.

Because of this “blue wave” in Texas, several key races also helped Democrats take back control of the House of Representatives from the Republicans. In the Greater Houston area, Democrat Lizzie Pannill Fletcher is headed to Congress after defeating nine-term incumbent Republican John Culberson for the Texas 7th District seat.

In what many are considering to be one of the biggest upsets of the midterm elections, both in Texas and nationwide, Democrat Colin Allred knocked off longtime incumbent Republican Pete Sessions to take the Texas 32nd District seat, which is located in Dallas County.

This was a huge win for the Democratic Party and Allred, who is African American, in that Sessions has been in Congress for 22 years and has represented that area since 2003. He was also the chairman of the House Rules Committee, which is one of the oldest and most powerful committees.

There are so many other races that were impacted across Texas as a trickle-down effect of O’Rourke’s campaign. O’Rourke truly solidified himself as a political powerhouse who was able to raise tons of money and electrify a nation with his progressive ideology and charming charisma.

This is Texas, however, and it is a state that has been a Republicandominated one since 2002, when Republicans took control of the Texas House of Representatives – breaking a 130-year string of

Democratic dominance on the state.

Relative to statewide races, Republicans once again retained every seat, although those races were more hotly contested than they have been in several decades.

This Senate loss was not a true loss for O’Rourke, as he led the way for Democrats at a time when they desperately needed a strong person at the top of the ticket at the state level.

The Democratic gubernatorial nominee is usually the person charged with leading the way for Democrats across the state of Texas, but former sheriff Lupe Valdez could not do it, and was absolutely no match for Republican incumbent Greg Abbott, who trounced his opponent by over 1 million votes and easily won reelection – 55.4% to 41.8%.

The influence of President Donald J. Trump should not be ignored either, in that November 6th turned out to be an ugly night for Republicans nationwide. Democrats took back control of the U.S. House of Representatives for the first time since losing it in 2010. Many believe the results of the midterm elections were an indictment on Trump and his administration.

The nationwide and statewide results serve as a huge blow to Trump, who has two more years left in his term and is faced with the uncertainty of what Democrats plan to do to him once they take complete control of the House in January. In 2020, all 435 seats in the U.S. House of Representatives will once again be on the ballot, along with several Senate seats.

The 2018 midterm elections were not good to Democrats relative to the Senate because the Republicans

did retain control, and even expanded its majority in the Senate.

Republicans may very well end up with 55 Senate seats when it is all said and done after these midterm election results are compiled.

If that happens, it is going to be a challenge for Democrats to attempt to take over the Senate in 2020, as they would need to pick up about six new seats in traditional Republican states, while also keeping the seats that are currently held by Democrats. Not to mention that 2020 will be another presidential election and Trump will more than likely be on the ballot, making this one of the most crucial presidential elections in recent memory.

Of course, 2020 will be the first general election that will be conducted without the straightticket voting option, so it will be important for Democrats to have someone at the top of the ticket who can generate the same level of excitement and turnout as O’Rourke did.

Every single Democratic winner who picked up a new seat in Texas, especially one that has been under Republican-control prior to the 2018 midterm elections, should personally pick up the phone and say “Thank You” to Rep. Beto O’Rourke for creating a “blue wave” that has given them the opportunity to serve and make a difference for their respective constituents and the community at large.

Based off of his tremendous momentum and strong connection to the people all across Texas and the rest of the nation, there is a strong possibility that this won’t be the last time we hear from Beto O’Rourke–maybe even a 2020 run for president? Time will tell.

NEWS Oxnard continued from page 1

The officers re-entered the bar after getting the first group out, he said, and provided first aid.

“There were a lot of heroic actions going on, not only from Oxnard, but I am speaking from the Oxnard perspective,” Whitney said.

THE VENTURA FIRE On Friday night, he said the Oxnard Police Department dispatched six police officers and one sergeant who provided mutual aid against the fire.

“We provided patrol services as they needed them

in Camarillo, Thousand Oaks, and Oak Park,” he said. “We did traffic control calls for service and patrolling the fire burn areas, so we expect that to go through Thursday.”

Fire Chief Darwin Base called the Nov. 8 and 9 incidents a one-two-punch and said it’s becoming the new normal with wildland fires.

“I hate to think that’s the case and this has probably been the most devastating fire in my career,” he said. “On the day of the fire, because we had experienced it with the Thomas fire, we were able to

get firefighters from off-duty to come back in and backfill, because we sent 52 firefighters to help support the incident.”

There are 35 firefighters still on-scene, he said, and most of them will be released soon.

“Most of the fire activity is back in a wildland area now, and it’s inaccessible,” he said. “Our primary coverage was residential structure protection, so once it goes out into the wilderness, we’re pretty much out of the game.”

The Oxnard Fire Department Explorers got into the act, he said, and 12 of

them went to the outpost at Freedom Park.

“Five of them are working currently as disaster service workers and are being paid by the state,” he said. “They

proved themselves to be very valuable in assisting with this operation.”

Base said that Homewood Suites opened its banquet room so 44 firefighters could

get some sleep, instead of sleeping in the elements.

“They said come on in free of charge, and that’s the kind of outreach we’ve been receiving in the community,” he said.

LAST WEEK’S SOLUTION

World War II Navy Veteran Lieutenant Commander Bill Stewart, his daughter Rosemary O’Hara and wife Rosalie Stewart are all smiles on Veteran’s Day.

Erin McPherson delivers a moving rendition of “God Bless America” during the ceremony at Plaza Park.

“The anniversary of this day is remembered because it was a bloody war,” Reyes said.

"Congress amended a bill in 1954 to change Armistice Day to Veterans Day to honor all vets, not just World War I vets.”

The Ventura County Veterans Color Guard presented the flags during the Pledge of Allegiance, led by Boy Scout Troop 231-member Jose Torres.

Mayor Tim Flynn asked the crowd to applaud the veterans and is grateful for their sacrifices and expressed his gratitude for their service across the world. His thoughts were with those individuals as everyone gathered at the ceremony and appreciated how the crowd stood by their side.

“We send a strong message to them all across this world, to every veteran man and woman in this world in uniform, we love you and support you,” he said. “God bless America.”

In comments before the ceremony, Flynn said the event was a long time in the making.

“The soldiers that are serving across the world, we owe them a debt of gratitude," he said. “We’re able to do what we do because of what you do, and we stand behind you and love you."

Ron Fitzgerald from the Vietnam Vets of Ventura County said the program means a lot because as a Vietnam vet, they never got a welcome home.

comrades.

“Be a good wingman to your fellow airmen, stay strong and focused,” she said.

World War II Veteran Lieutenant Commander Dr. William Stewart was proud to be part of the festivities.

“I was in the Navy, and I spent one year in the Marines as a medic,” he said. “We celebrate this every year.”

He served in both theaters of battle, including England, Ireland, Germany, plus Hawaii, Guam, and Japan.

“He was a hospital corpsman on the USS Coral Sea and the USS Wisconsin during World War II, and he was a reserve gunnery officer during Korea when he was in dental school," his daughter Rosemary O’Hara said. “He served in Vietnam a few times when he was in the Marines.”

She called him a semblance of service to the country.

“There was seven of us when he went at 40 years old to the Marines basic training at Camp Pendleton and was gone for 13 months,” she said.

“It means a lot to me that he is still upright and pretty engaging, along with his rock, my mother, Rosalie. They have been married for 67 years, and she was a Kansas school teacher who taught us to be part of a community.”

She said her dad’s favorite World War II story was when he went to the canteen in Hollywood when he was 18.

“He was in hospital corpsman training and got to dance with Betty Grable,” O’Hara said. “Another time was when he hitchhiked to get around, and a young military man named Ronald Regan picked him up because he needed a ride.”

Stewart had simple advice for today’s soldier.

“Put your time in, learn your craft and get to retirement,” he said.

O’Hara was a member of the third West Point graduating class that allowed women and spoke that morning to a group in Port Hueneme.

“There were a Vietnam combat nurse and the daughter of a Korean War veteran,” she said. "I have my West Point uniform in the Port Hueneme Museum.”

“We’re here to remind everybody that you are not going to treat our brothers and sisters in arms like we were when we came home,” he said.

Board of Supervisors Member John Zaragoza said being part of the ceremony is an honor and thanked the veterans for their service and noted that people should thank veterans every day.

“On this day, even more so, we want to honor them,” he said. “As we look at the flag flying today we are reminded that this is the land of the free because it’s the home of the brave men and women who protect us at home."

He also spent a moment thanking the Vietnam veterans who served during an unpopular war and returned to an ungrateful nation.

“We now bare the shame of how they were treated, but their sacrifice was every bit as real, and their heroism was every bit as brave, and we let them down and didn’t show them the appreciation they deserved,” he said.

Senior Master Sergeant Erin McPherson was the featured singer and delivered a resounding rendition of “God Bless America” to the crowd.

“I’m honored because it is a tribute to those who served,” she said. “It chokes me up a little bit when I think about all those people who served before me and have made their mark protecting this country.”

McPherson offered sound advice to her fellow Air Force

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 (844) 477-7869 or visit this Internet Web site WWW.STOXPOSTING.COM, using the file number assigned to this case 071429-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. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

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 Dec. 5, 2018 at 9:00 AM in Dept. No. J6 located at 4353 E. Vineyard, Oxnard, CA 93036.

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.

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 PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that HENRY HARDISON, III 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 12/12/2018 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.

TRI-COUNTY SENTRY, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 2018

HEALTH More Deaths Seen for Less Invasive Cervical Cancer Surgery

By Carla K. Johnson New evidence about a cancer operation in women finds a higher death rate for the less invasive version, challenging standard practice and the “less is more” approach to treating cervical cancer.

The unexpected findings are prompting changes at some hospitals that perform radical hysterectomies for early-stage disease.

The more rigorous of the two studies was conducted at more than 30 sites in a dozen countries.

It found women who had the less invasive surgery were four times more likely to see their cancer return compared to women who had traditional surgery. Death from cervical cancer occurred in 14 of 319 patients who had minimally invasive surgery and 2 of 312 patients who had open surgery.

Results were published online Wednesday by the New England Journal of Medicine.

Radical hysterectomy is standard treatment for women with early-stage cervical cancer.

Rates are declining because of widespread screening. The number of operations has fallen, too, to several thousand a year in the United States. Some women with early-stage cervical cancer are choosing fertility-sparing techniques, treatments not included in the new research.

In both studies, researchers compared two methods for radical hysterectomy, an operation to remove the uterus, cervix and part of the vagina.

The surgery costs around $9,000 to $12,000 with the minimally invasive version at the higher end.

Traditional surgery involves a

cut in the lower abdomen. In a newer method, a surgeon makes small incisions for a camera and instruments. Patients recover faster, so laparoscopic surgery, which has been around for more than a decade, gained popularity despite a lack of rigorous longterm studies.

It's not clear why it failed to measure up. Experts suspect there may be something about the tools or technique that spreads the cancer cells from the tumor to the abdominal cavity.

Some hospitals went back to traditional hysterectomy after the results were presented at a cancer meeting in March.

“We immediately as a department changed our practice and changed completely to the open approach,” said Dr. Pedro Ramirez of the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston.

Ramirez led the more rigorous study, which randomly assigned 631 patients to one of two

surgeries. After 41/2 years, the rate of those still living without disease was 86 percent with less invasive surgery and 96 percent with traditional surgery.

The experiment was halted early last year when the higher death and cancer recurrence rates showed up. The original plan was to enroll 740 patients in the study, which was funded in part by surgical device maker Medtronic.

For 33-year-old Alicia Ackley, who was diagnosed with cervical cancer in July, the recommendation for traditional surgery came as a surprise, but she followed the advice of her doctor at MD Anderson after hearing about the research.

Tests following her September operation show no signs of cancer.

“I'm very glad I went that route,” Ackley said. “The open hysterectomy got everything.”

The other study looked at 2,461 women with cervical cancer who had radical hysterectomies

from 2010 through 2013. It found a 9.1 percent death rate after four years among women who got minimally invasive surgery compared to 5.3 percent for traditional surgery.

“We're rethinking how we approach patients,” said study co-author Dr. Jason Wright of New York-Presbyterian Hospital.

“There's a lot of surprise around these findings.”

The research is “a great blow” to the technique and the findings are “alarming,” said Dr. Amanda Fader of Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center. She said Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore has stopped doing less invasive hysterectomies for cervical cancer until there is more data.

While some patients with small tumors might do as well with minimally invasive surgery, “surgeons should proceed cautiously” and discuss the new information with patients, Fader wrote in an accompanying editorial.

FDA Approves Return of Popular Primatene Mist Asthma Inhaler By Linda Johnson

A.

TRENTON, N.J. (AP)—A new version of the once-popular asthma inhaler Primatene Mist will soon return to U.S. stores.

The Food and Drug Administration approved the over-thecounter aerosol inhaler late Wednesday. It's for temporary relief of mild, intermittent asthma symptoms in people ages 12 and up.

The original Primatene Mist was discontinued seven years ago because the inhaler's ozone-depleting propellant had been banned. That version had been marketed for half a century, including in memorable TV ads.

The new product developed by Amphastar Pharmaceuticals uses a safer propellant. The inhaler will cost about $25 and contain 160 doses. It should be available by the end of the year.

“Rescue inhalers” are meant to quickly relieve asthma symptoms such as wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath and chest tightness, which can be triggered by pollen, mold, dust mites, pet dander, stress or exercising in the cold.

Primatene Mist's active ingredient, the hormone epinephrine, relaxes muscles in the lungs to increase airflow. The product is the only FDA-approved over-the-counter inhaler. Numerous prescription rescue inhalers, containing the medicine albuterol or levalbuterol, are available.

In a statement Thursday, FDA officials noted concerns that some people may inappropriately use or overuse the new inhaler. The agency said it should not be substituted for prescription treatments or used by people with severe asthma.

Primatene Mist was pulled from stores in 2011, but it still has many fans, including tens of thousands who have liked Facebook pages advocating its return. TV ads for the old version touted its speedy relief with endorsements from athletes such as Bob Gibson and Jackie Joyner-Kersee, or by showing a gasping person getting relief as a stopwatch ticked off 15 seconds.

Does Racism Have an Impact on Health?

History, Urban Life May be an Additional Cause

By K. Barrett Bilali Racism in the health care system continues to confound but a few researchers are taking a historic look and holistic approach to addressing racism’s effect on Black and poor communities.

One researcher is using his foundation-funded fellowships to dive into the barriers to good health in the Black community, namely Overtown, Florida. While another joined an organization that looks for ways to keep historically racist practices out of today’s health care system.

“Look at the health disparities in our communities,” said Daniel Gibson, regional vice president of the Allegheny Franciscan Ministries, a nonprofit Catholic organization, which works with partners to support life skills, training and economic development in urban neighborhoods.

“Life expectancy of a resident of Overtown is 16 years less than a resident in Brickell, [Florida]” said Gibson. “And they are less than a mile away from each other.” He said the average life expectancy in Brickell is 79, while Overtown residents die on average at 63 years of age.

Gibson participates in a threeyear fellowship program, which addresses equity, diversity and inclusion in the health care industry.

He is one of 40 leaders nationwide participating in the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation program called Leadership for Better Health. The

safe and healthy place to live,” said Gibson.

foundation seeks to build a “Culture of Health” and draws participants from the medical professions, social scientists, urban planners, and others to develop leaders who will strive to make American communities healthier.

Gibson’s work in Overtown was the reason he was chosen to participate in this expansive study of

how health is impacted by a number of social and economic factors.

His organization has been working and coordinating efforts to improve the lives of Overtown residents and has allocated $2.7 million for its Common Good Initiative to assist in community and human development programs.

“Our goal is to make Overtown a

‘SO MUCH TRAUMA’ Gibson said that many youth and families who are living in urban corridors experience a high rate of poverty.

He said these environments lead to cases of depression, drug addiction and social malaise.

“There is so much trauma,” said Gibson. “There is a toxic stress that happens when we are living in under-resourced, impoverished communities.”

Gibson said they are looking at ways to address housing issues and educating people about quality of life, food, diet and work. They are also helping businesses to develop in Overtown and looking at the experience of the Black entrepreneur.

“Health does not have to be a pill; it does not have to be a doctor,” said Gibson.

The Common Good Initiative takes a holistic approach to curing the urban blight. Gibson believes that by addressing quality of life, the health of those affected by racism will improve.

“I will stop short of calling it a racist system, but you can’t deny the fact that one’s race and one’s address has an impact on your health, your life expectancy and your life experience in this world,” Gibson said.

SYSTEMIC PROBLEM

Dr. Armen Henderson, an internist working at the University of Miami Hospital, agrees that Blacks have suffered trauma, which has affected urban communities economically, socially and the overall health of its residents. But he sees a more historic and systemic source to the problem.

“We should not be able to tell life expectancy by ZIP code,” said Henderson. “That should not be the case.”

Henderson said America’s history of racism continues to have an impact on the health of Black and poor urban communities.

“There is an argument that Black people are still suffering from the trauma of slavery today,” said Henderson. “We have never reconciled the effects of slavery on people’s mental health.”

Henderson said that emotional and physical trauma for more than 400 years affect the well-being and outlook of Blacks every day. He said that day-to-day urban life, gentrification and uncertainty of the future causes stress, anxiety, depression and mental disorders, some of which never get treated.

“The system of medicine in general was started on a racist premise,” said Henderson, who attended Meharry Medical College in Nashville, Tennessee, one of the three historically Black medical schools in the country. Morehouse in Atlanta, Georgia and Howard in Washington, D.C. have the other historically Black medical schools.

By Lindsey Bahr LOS ANGELES (AP)—Stan Lee, the creative dynamo who, along with artists Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko, revolutionized the comic book and helped make billions for Hollywood by introducing human frailties in superheroes such as Spider-Man, the Fantastic Four and the Incredible Hulk, died Monday. He was 95.

Lee was declared dead at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, according to Kirk Schenck, an attorney for Lee's daughter, J.C. Lee. As the top writer at Marvel Comics and later as its publisher, Lee was widely considered the architect of the contemporary comic book.

He revived the industry in the 1960s by offering the costumes and action craved by younger readers while insisting on sophisticated plots, college-level dialogue, satire, science fiction, even philosophy.

Millions responded to the unlikely mix of realistic fantasy, and many of his characters, including Spider-Man, the Hulk and X-Men went on to become stars of blockbuster films. Recent projects he helped make possible range from the films "Black Panther" and "Doctor Strange" to such TV series as "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D" and "Guardians of the Galaxy."

"I think everybody loves things that are bigger than life. ... I think of them as fairy tales for grownups," he told The Associated Press in a 2006 interview. "We all grew up with giants and ogres and witches.

Well, you get a little bit older and you're too old to read fairy tales.

But I don't think you ever outgrow your love for those kind of things, things that are bigger than life and magical and very imaginative."

Lee considered the comic-book medium an art form and he was prolific: By some accounts, he came

up with a new comic book every day for 10 years.

"I wrote so many I don't even know. I wrote either hundreds or thousands of them," he told the AP in 2006. He hit his stride in the 1960s when he brought the Fantastic Four, the Hulk, SpiderMan, Iron Man and numerous others to life. "It was like there was something in the air. I couldn't do anything wrong," he recalled.

His heroes, meanwhile, were a far cry from virtuous do-gooders such as rival DC Comics' Superman.

The Fantastic Four fought with each other. Spider-Man was goaded into superhero work by his alter ego, Peter Parker, who suffered from unrequited crushes, money problems and dandruff. The Silver Surfer, an alien doomed to wander Earth's atmosphere, waxed about the woeful nature of man. The Hulk was marked by self-loathing.

Daredevil was blind and Iron Man had a weak heart.

"The beauty of Stan Lee's characters is that they were characters first and superheroes next," Jeff Kline, executive producer

of the "Men in Black" animated television series, told The Blade of Toledo, Ohio, in 1998.

Some of Lee's creations became symbols of social change—the inner turmoil of Spider-Man represented '60s America, for example, while The Black Panther and The Savage She-Hulk mirrored the travails of minorities and women.

Lee scripted most of Marvel's superhero comics himself during the '60s, including the Avengers and the X-Men, two of the most enduring. In 1972, he became Marvel's publisher and editorial director; four years later, 72 million copies of Spider-Man were sold.

"He's become our Mickey Mouse," he once said of the masked, web-crawling crusader.

Lee also published several books, including "The Superhero Women" in 1977 and "How to Draw Comics the Marvel Way" the following year, when he was named publisher of the year by the Periodical

and Book Association of America.

CBS turned the Hulk into a successful TV series, with Bill Bixby and Lou Ferrigno portraying the doomed scientist from 1978-82.

A Spider-Man series ran briefly in 1978. Both characters were featured in animated TV series as well.

The first big-budget movie based on Lee's characters, "X-Men," was a smash in 2000, earning more than $130 million at North American theaters. "Spider-Man" did even better, taking in more than $400 million in 2002.

Stanley Martin Lieber was born Dec. 28, 1922, in New York. He grew up a fan of "Hardy Boys" adventure books and Errol Flynn movies, and got a job at Timely Comics after graduating from high school.

NEW YORK (AP)— Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry has been hospitalized with breathing problems that began after a guest performance with Billy Joel in New York.

Perry's publicists said in a statement Sunday that the musician is alert and responsive in the hospital and is expected to return to the road later this month.

The statement says Perry felt short of breath after the performance at Madison Square Garden. It adds paramedics backstage gave Perry oxygen and used a tracheal tube to clear his airway before taking him to the hospital.

Perry had to cancel a Sunday appearance at a rock fantasy camp in Florida.

The 68-year-old Perry had joined the 69-year-old Joel on stage for a rendition of Aerosmith's “Walk This Way.”

ARETHA FRANKLIN DOC 'AMAZING GRACE' TO FINALLY SEE THE LIGHT

By Jake Coyle

T:10”

NEW YORK (AP)—More than 46 years after it was shot, the Aretha Franklin concert film “Amazing Grace” will finally be released, ending one of the most tortured and longrunning sagas in documentary film.

The late gospel singer's estate and film producers said Monday that “Amazing Grace” will premiere Nov. 12 at the DOC NYC film festival with the full support of Franklin's estate. The film, largely shot by Sydney Pollack, captures Franklin's performance at the New Temple Missionary Baptist Church in Los Angeles' Watts neighborhood in January 1972.

The music from the two performances was released as a landmark double live album in 1972. But Pollack's footage proved virtually impossible to edit because the filmmaker failed to sync the sound. After acquiring the film's rights from Pollack in 2007, producer Alan Elliott brought in a team to construct the film, which Elliott calls “a labor of love.”

“Aretha's fans will be enthralled by every moment of the film as her genius, her devotion to God and her spirit are present in every frame,” Elliot said in a statement.

Franklin first sued Elliott in 2011 for planning to release the film without her permission. “Amazing Grace” nearly saw the light of day in 2015, but it was yanked at the last minute from the Telluride and Toronto film festivals after Franklin's attorneys obtained an injunction against its release. They argued the film was “the functional equivalent of replaying an entire Aretha Franklin concert,” and couldn't be screened without her consent.

A Colorado court largely agreed, ruling in 2016 that the concert film didn't constitute “fair use,” prompting a new round of

negotiations. Telluride also listed the film in its 2016 lineup only to pull it yet again. Last year, Telluride executive director Julie Huntsinger told Variety that “(Franklin's) resolve for it not being shown is so intense, and I don't think any us really understand it all the way.”

Franklin passed away in August. Pollack died in 2008.

The late singer's estate said “Amazing Grace” was an important part of Franklin's legacy. “‘Amazing Grace' is the heart and soul of Aretha Franklin,” Sabrina Owens, Franklin's niece, said Monday. “This film is authentic and is my aunt at her core. She was a daughter of the church, she loved gospel music, and she always incorporated some form of sacred music in her concerts.”

An Oscar-qualifying release of “Amazing Grace” is planned for this fall, with a larger rollout in theaters likely coming next year. The film doesn't yet have distribution.
