Riverside County reinstates use of Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine City News Service SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

Riverside County announced Monday, April 26, that county-run inoculation sites will resume administering the J ohnson & J ohnson vaccine.

An advisory committee for the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommended Friday, April 23, that the one-shot vaccine reenter circulation, which came with a warning about potentially dangerous blood clotting that occurred in 15 people out of about 7 million doses administered nationwide which prompted a hold on the vaccine earlier in April.

The committee’s recommendation was adopted by the CDC and the Food and Drug Administration, clearing the way for administration of the J & J vaccine to resume. “ ringing bac the ohnson J ohnson vaccine will provide us

with another tool to help vaccinate as many Riverside County residents as possible,” Dr. Geoffrey eung, county public health officer, said Monday. “We are confident the vaccine is safe and effective.”

The vaccine returned first to a clinic operated out of Alessandro High School in Hemet Thursday, April 29, before expanding to other county-operated locations next week. The announcement only applies to county-run vaccination sites.

According to the Riverside niversity Health System, 19, 2 doses of the vaccine were administered countywide before the stoppage, and there were no reports of blood clotting. Officials said the county has roughly 17, additional shots ready to administer.

Meanwhile, Riverside County reported a slight uptick in newly confirmed coronavirus cases from

over the weekend, but no additional deaths.

The aggregate number of COVID-19 cases recorded since the public health documentation period began in March 2 2 was 29 , 1, up 12 from Friday, according to RUHS. A total ,559 deaths from virusrelated complications have been recorded in the past 13 months, according to RUHS, the same as Friday. The agency does not release updated COVID-19 statistics on weekends.

There are now 77 people hospitalized with coronavirus countywide, two fewer than Friday. Current hospitali ations include 17 intensive care unit patients diagnosed with the virus, five fewer than Friday. Hospitalizations have ranged between and 1 for the past two wee s.

The number of known active virus cases countywide was 1,7 3, down 137 from Friday. The active

count is derived by subtracting deaths and recoveries from the current total 29 , 1 according to the county xecutive Office. Verified patient recoveries countywide are at 291,739.

The county’s coronavirus positivity rate is at 2.3 , compared to 2 two wee s ago, and the statead usted case rate is .5 per 1 , people, which reflects a rolling seven-day average. Two wee s ago, it was 3.6 per 1 , .

Kim Saruwatari, director of the county Department of Public Health, said during the county Board of Supervisors’ meeting, April 2 , that the “numbers have ticked up just slightly,” but she said the rise was “to be expected because of reopenings” and related increased activity as the public health regulatory bar is lowered.

More county businesses opened amid lighter restrictions due to the county entering the orange tier. The

county had been in the red tier of the “ lueprint for a Safer conomy” framewor since March 16, after five months in the most restrictive purple tier.

According to the California Department of Public Health, orange criteria permit retail businesses to fully open, while 5 attendance caps are supposed to be observed in restaurants, museums, movie theaters and zoos. The guidelines call for gyms, wineries and bars to maintain 25 caps.

The county’s metrics are sq uarely in the orange ualifier, but ust outside the parameters for yellow tier status, which represents “minimal” presence of the virus.

The portal to make an appointment for vaccination at county-run and other sites can be accessed via http www.rivcoph.org COVID19-Vaccine. Anyone who needs assistance may also call the county’s 211 help line.

EVMWD approves design contract for Canyon Lake treatment plant Joe Naiman WRITER

The Elsinore V alley Municipal Water District awarded Kennedy/ J enks Consultants the design contract for the first phase of treatment improvements at the Canyon Lake Water Treatment Plant.

A 5VMWD board vote, March 25 , approved the professional services agreement with ennedy en s for 3,57 ,526 and authorized a total expenditure of ,161, 3 which includes 56 ,66 for staff time and 17, 93 for overhead.

“I thin it’s our responsibility to ensure that we have water,” board member Harvey Ryan said.

The Canyon Lake Water Treatment Plant is a conventional water facility which uses mixed media filtration. The plant has a rated capacity of 9 million gallons per day although the ultraviolet treatment plant is rated at 7 million gallons per day and operational constraints limit average current production to between 3 million gallons per day and 5 million gallons per day.

In anuary 2 17, the VMWD

board approved a consultant contract with Kennedy/ J enks to prepare a facilities master plan for the Canyon Lake Water Treatment Plant. The plan recommended phased improvements based on the condition assessment, and the capacity was to be increased to 7. million gallons per day for the near term and 9. million gallons per day for the medium-term and long-term phases.

Testing in late 2 19 for per and polyfluoroalkyl substances contaminants found elevated levels of PFAS in the Canyon Lake Water Treatment Plant. PFAS substances include perfluorooctane sulfanic acid and perfluorooctanic acid.

The state notification levels for PFAS contaminants are 6.5 parts per trillion for PFOS and 5.1 parts per trillion for PFOA. The state response level, which req uires a drinking water source to be shut down or that extensive notification be issued, is 40 parts per trillion for PFOS and 1 parts per trillion for PFOA. The Canyon Lake Reservoir was shut down in ovember 2 19 after averaging 15 parts per trillion for PFOS and 22 parts per trillion

for PFOA. The contaminant discovery has led to the need for additional treatment methods to reduce the levels to below the regulatory reuirements. In February 2 21, the state’s Division of Drinking Water announced its intent to establish notification levels for cranobacterial toxins, and the Canyon Lake treatment plant pilot testing will also include those contaminants.

The Phase 1 improvements for the Canyon Lake Water Treatment Plant were paused until a feasibility study for PFAS treatment could be completed.

The treatment system will address taste and odor as well as PFAS contamination. A hybrid system which will utilize granular activated carbon treatment followed by ion exchange vessels has been recommended. Pilot testing, which will last for about nine months, will determine the feasibility of treatment technologies.

Board member Darcy Burke noted that osmosis treatment would not be the solution for the Canyon Lake facility.

“It’s not the appropriate applica-

tion for this site,” she said.

For Phase 1 ennedy en s will perform project management, site investigations, pilot scale testing and preliminary and final design for the intake pumps, intake pipeline, static mixer, rapid mixer, flocculation and sedimentation basin, chemical storage, feed systems and PFAS treatment system. The scope of work also includes support for the California Environmental Q uality Act process, permitting support and public outreach.

“The sooner we can get it up and running I believe the better for our ratepayers,” EV MWD board member Andy Morris said.

The reservoir closure req uires the district to purchase imported water from the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California at MWD rates. “ very day that we delay this project is a day that we spend extra money importing water,” EV MWD director of engineering J ason Dafforn said.

“We don’t want to be dependent on imported water. We want to increase our resiliency,” EV MWD board member J ared McBride said.

The estimated total cost for all phases of the Canyon Lake Water Treatment Plant improvements is $ 33 million. McBride supported the agreement with Kennedy/ J enks reluctantly.

“I’m very hesitant on this pro ect,” he said. “There are so many aspects and variables that can take

place that would ta e us off line.”

Burke also noted the possibility that future state regulations could shut down the treatment plant.

“We do now what’s coming.

We don’t know the level to which they’ll set it,” she said.

Ryan fears that better technology could identify more contaminants.

“This is a tough decision,” he said.

“This solution doesn’t ma e us completely reliant on ourselves,” McBride said.

The State Water Resources Control Board has a State Revolving Fund program which provides 2 -year loans with interest rates between 1.5 and 3 , so the district could fund the treatment plant upgrades through a State Revolving Fund loan. If grant funding is received, the award could also cover some of the costs which otherwise would be funded by the ratepayers.

“We’ve got to move forward.

This is the best plan to do that,” Morris said.

“If we don’t have it and lose imported water what are we going to do? It’s a major component of our water portfolio,” board president Phil Williams said.

“I’m very hopeful that we can move forward,” ur e said. “We have an obligation to provide water to our customers every day and in an emergency.”

The Rancho California Water District approved a revised policy for agricultural water service accounts. A 7- CWD board vote, April , approved the revisions.

“What it’s meant to do is provide clarity,” J ustin Haessly, water use efficiency and grants manager of ancho Water, said. “The intention of the document was meant to be a simple source of information for our customers.”

For an account to be eligible for agricultural service, the property must have at least 1 acre of agricultural products fully planted and irrigated for the purpose of commerce, trade, industry or feeding of livestock. Irrigated landscape along with water features such as ponds or swimming pools will be limited to 1 of the account’s agricultural acreage and to no more than 75, sq uare feet. Only the accountholder can apply for agricultural services, and the applicant must submit proof of having an agricultural business.

If ownership of the property or the account changes, the district may req uire a new application by the successor.

An applicant must install a reduced pressure bac flow prevention device approved by the water district, which will charge a fee for the initial certification of the device. The user must test and certify the device on an annual basis and provide the district with a record of the annual certification. The district may terminate water service for failure to test and certify the device within the req uired time.

An agricultural user may not req uest to be removed from the program during the calendar year in which the user is included in the program. Each year, the accounts

will be provided with an annual water allocation reflecting crop req uirements. The allocations are calculated based on crop water req uirements, acreage, landscape area, number of people living in the household if the property includes a residence and number of large animals. The annual allocations are subject to change in the event of a drought.

The district allocates .97 acrefeet per acre annually for greenhouse crops, .6 acre-feet per acre annually for avocados, . acrefeet for apples and for cool season turf, 3.95 acre-feet for peaches, 3. acre-feet for berries other than strawberries, 3.71 acre-feet for nuts and pomegranates, 3. 7 acre-feet for strawberries, 3. 1 acre-feet for citrus, 3.39 acre-feet for olives, 3.21 acre-feet for landscape irrigation, 3.2 acre-feet for pasture, 2.9 acre-feet for flowers and other nursery crops, 2. acre-feet for eucalyptus trees and 2. acre-feet for wine grapes and horse corrals.

V ariances for planting density are not permitted. A variance req uest form for changes to an area’s planted area or crop type is available, and req uests must be submitted by the applicant. The evaluation of such req uests may include an on-site inspection of the property.

Irrigated acreage will be determined through measurements taken by the district using aerial imagery and geographic information system software. on-irrigated areas such as driveways, structures, large boulders and hardscape will not be included in the irrigation measurements.

“I thin this is a great idea to get everything into one place,” RCWD board member J ohn Hoagland said.

Western Center Academy advances to national competition

Western Center Academy’s Academic D ecathlon team is competing at the virtual N ationals through April 30.

Valley News/Courtesy photo

Diane A. Rhodes SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

Hemet’s Western Center Academy is the only Riverside County school to advance to the Academic Decathlon national competition this year. The charter school’s 2-year-old team was formed by coaches Rex McDonald and Keith Rossi.

“We thought there would be a lot of student interest, we thought they would enjoy it and we thought we could put together a competitive team,” McDonald said.

He explained that the Academic Decathlon is a rigorous individual and team competition that pits students against one another from other schools in the county, state and the country. There are 1 individual events in essay, speech, interview and objective tests in art, economics, literature, mathematics, music, science and social science and a Super Q uiz, which is a collaborative event. Each team of six to nine decathletes must have students from a range of GPAs. Students can medal in the 1 individual events

and their overall individual points contribute to the overall team score.

All the schools compete against one another at the same time.

Western Center Academy has students from throughout the Inland Empire and the team consists of students from Hemet, San J acinto, Idyllwild and Temecula.

Decathletes Byron Gonzalez and Ayden Reams are the only two who competed last year. Their teammates are Aubriana Bernhardt, J ayson Bunnell, Sophie Carver, Fatima Muhammad and Ahnika Pena. All but Pena are seniors.

Gonzalez said he felt having competed before gave him a definite advantage. “ nowing how to study and playing the game was perfect for my success this year. I see it as a video game for any standardized testing; once you get the routine there’s no stopping you,” he said.

“It re uires commitment and comradery to make a team.”

The COVID-19 pandemic began part way through last year’s competition but affected the entire year of practice for this year’s event,

with all levels of competition held virtually.

“One of the biggest challenges I’ve faced is staying motivated to study not only the topics that I enjoy from this year but also the ones that I don’t enjoy as much,” Pena said. “Music has been the biggest struggle for me, as learning something as complex as music theory while also trying to memorize other topics isn’t easy. One thing I’ve found that helped was having teammates who are well versed in music, like my teammates J ayson and Ayden who each play several instruments.”

Pena’s favorite part of the competition is Super Q uiz because of the teamwork aspect of it. Although it’s different from a normal year, she said it’s nice to get a full review and collaborate with her teammates more than she would on the individual tests or the performance tasks.

McDonald said the virtual competition causes the students to miss out on some of the most exciting aspects of the competition, which include doing the speeches and interviews live, the Super Q uiz competition and the excitement of seeing all of the competitors from other schools.

“The biggest benefit was that in a year where social lives have sort of been put on hold, our online meetings were one of the few opportunities these kids had for a social outlet,” he said.

Bernhardt thought utilizing an online format made it easier for the team to meet, especially on weekends and after school because they didn’t need to arrange rides to and from school.

“We also got to compete from locations where we were comfortable, which I think helped,” she said.

This year’s theme is The Cold War. Competitions at each level were held J an. 30 and Feb. 6 for county, March 16-2 for state and throughout April for the 1 parts of the national competition. The final objective tests and the Super Q uiz are Friday, April 30.

“The information about The Cold War is given to us through resource guides, separated into seven different topics,” Pena said.

“These are studied wee ly, with 7-1 hours being put in on school time and then additional time put in on our own, for me about four extra hours a week depending on how much work I have for other classes, or more when the competition gets closer.”

Her study methods were very focused on highlighting important information while reading through the resource guide and then using color coding to designate different types of information throughout the guide. She also enjoyed doing practice ui es and using flashcard sets when it got closer to competition times as a faster review.

Bunnell said he’s enjoyed researching The Cold War and tracing all the different events bac to their very beginning. Gonzalez said each level increased in difficulty and time commitment and as they progressed, everyone had to study harder to meet their goals.

“I read and read li e there was no tomorrow,” he said. “That is the tric ust rereading when you are bored, have nothing to do, or for fun.”

McDonald said the county champions automatically advanced to the state level, which was Lake Elsinore this year. After that, the state invites a certain number of teams based on overall points. The State Champion and a Division IV Champion advance to the N ational

Competition.

“I don’t now how many schools we will be competing against since there will be schools from China competing too,” McDonald said.

“We were the third highest Division IV ualifier based on our state scores.”

He said that the decathletes have been preparing much the same as they have been doing since J anuary which includes reviewing for the seven-sub ect area tests and practicing the performance events of essay, speech and interview.

“Interviews are usually my favorite since I can spill all my life in a couple of minutes,” Gonzalez said.

McDonald said his role as coach is to mainly keep the students motivated and engaged, trying to mix things up so they aren’t doing the same thing day after day. He said it has been a schoolwide effort as WCA teachers that are experts in their subject areas have worked with the students. He said what he looks forward to the most is seeing the students’ excitement, nervousness and sense of pride in all their success.

“The best part of the competition has definitely been my teammates.

I know it’s cheesy, but it’s true,” Carver said. “Having my senior year be completely online has been lonely and disappointing but being able to ( virtually) see my teammates every day, have them become really close friends of mine, and learn alongside them has made this year bearable. I’ve also enjoyed learning things I wouldn’t normally learn in school, like interviews and impromptu speeches.

I really feel like this practice has prepared me for the real world and made life after high school seem a little less scary.”

Lake Elsinore City Council receives WRCOG rebate for streetlight retrofit Diane A. Rhodes SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

Lake Elsinore Councilmember Brian Tisdale accepted a rebate check from the Western Riverside Council of Governments on behalf of the city at the regular city council meeting, Tuesday, April 13. The nearly $ 400,000 rebate was a result of the city’s participation in the Regional Streetlight Program, which was initiated in 2 1 . A regional D retrofit of streetlights in 11 participating local governments was completed in fall 2020.

Daniel Soltero, senior analyst of WRCOG, explained the successful program and presented

before and after photos of the streetlight D retrofit, showing how the true colors will improve the neighborhoods’ appearance as well as benefit public safety.

In addition to providing true colors compared to previous sodium lamps, it supports Palomar Observatory’s nighttime sky objectives to reduce light pollution and provides overall energy savings. The city of Lake Elsinore purchased 3,659 streetlights from Southern California Edison to have them retrofitted by this pro ect that began in October 2 19.

N ow that the city owns the streetlights, estimated annual savings for Lake Elsinore will be more

than $ 5 35 ,000. The new LEDs are expected to provide a 6 reduction in annual utility costs and a 62 reduction in annual ilowatt-hour usage. The savings amounts to enough energy to provide electricity to 17 homes for one year and significantly reduce greenhouse emissions.

In other business, the city council approved a recommendation from city manager J ason Simpson to waive normal bidding procedures and authorize the execution of an agreement with Pyro Spectaculars Inc. for fireworks services in an amount not to exceed $42,000. Also approved was the traffic plan and road closures

for downtown associated with the annual Fourth of uly firewor s celebration over the lake.

During a public hearing, the city council was asked to consider a planning application for the construction of a 5 ,627-s uare-foot facility, of which about 5 will be used as a cannabis facility.

Karen Brindley, director of Community Development, presented details for the building that will be at Pasadena Street and Central Avenue. The council approved unanimously to allow development to proceed.

A proposed commercial center consisting of six buildings at Riverside Drive and Lincoln Street

was approved by the council, as was the Westridge at Canyon Hills project, both presented by Brindley during public hearings.

Kim Cousins, president and CEO of Lake Elsinore V alley Chamber of Commerce, addressed the council and thanked them for their support for the commercial center development.

“This pro ect started seven years ago and has been a long time coming,” he said. “ ocated so close to Launch Pointe, it will serve as a gateway. We are thrilled about the project.”

The next regular meeting of the Lake Elsinore City Council is scheduled for April 27.

Lake Elsinore receives funding for harmful algae bloom study A SI O With the support of Lake Elsinore and San J acinto Water Authority and the city of Lake Elsinore, the Santa Ana Regional Water Q uality Control Board was recently awarded funding to conduct a yearlong harmful algae bloom study in Lake Elsinore. The Lake Elsinore and San J acinto Watersheds Authority have been a leader in seeking solutions that improve water q uality within the Lake Elsinore and San J acinto watersheds.

As the largest natural lake in Southern California, Lake Elsinore creates a value to the region as a popular recreation destination and habitat resource as well as supports the local economy. Located at the end San J acinto River Watershed, Lake Elsinore has been plagued with on-going water uality changes, some of which can include occasional harmful algae blooms.

Recently, California state funding was made available on a competitive basis for harmful algae blooms studies. With encouragement from the Lake Elsinore and Canyon Lake Total Maximum Daily Load Task Force, a group comprised of local water q uality stakeholders, and backing from the city of Lake Elsinore, funding was granted. The task force and its member agencies currently work cooperatively to implement the Lake Elsinore and Canyon Lake N utrient total maximum daily load provisions contained in a Water Q uality Control Plan for the Santa Ana Region. For this reason, the group was seeking solutions that could benefit the la e’s water uality issues.

Freshwater harmful algal blooms are created from an overgrowth of cyanobacteria, which often produce toxins. The impacts from freshwater harmful algal blooms include: ecosystem function, aesthetics, taste and odor and toxins impacting recreation, drinking water and agriculture.

“The primary ob ective of the HA study will be to fill in any FHAB monitoring gaps. Something that has been difficult to achieve with limited funding and resources,” Mark N orton, administrator of S WA, said. “The study will use tools to analyze the water q uality including remote sensing. Working with the regional board, the FHABs monitoring data will help evaluate environmental factors causing these types of algae blooms.”

Past studies and monitoring at Lake Elsinore have been mostly reactive with scarce winter data and infreque nt coverage. The new freshwater harmful algal blooms study will regularly collect water qua lity data for over a year and a half to provide valuable information that can be used by LESJ WA to determine future solutions that may improve overall water q uality in the lake.

Throughout the period of the study, regular and consistent monitoring will be documented. Hydrodynamic mixing conditions and historical satellite data will also be evaluated. From May 2 21 through September 2022, 62 samples will be collected and included in the study. The official start date for the study is anticipated to take place in late May or early une 2 21.

LESJ WA and the Lake Elsinore

and Canyon Lake Task Force have made significant strides toward improving water qua lity in Lake lsinore to benefit recreation and aq uatic life. The harmful algal blooms study will be another milestone in seeking water q uality

improvement solutions for Lake Elsinore.

LESJ WA is a joint powers authority entrusted with state and local funds to improve water q uality and wildlife habitats in Lake Elsinore, Canyon Lake and

the surrounding San J acinto watershed. For more information about LESJ WA, visit http: / / www. mywatersheds.com.

Menifee City Council meeting opens to public after more than a year of COVID-19 restriction Tony Ault STAFF WRITER

The first time in more than a year, members of the public sat down at the Menifee City Council meeting Wednesday, April 21, to hear the council’s working agenda and witness the council discussion and adoption of the city’s recognition policy.

The city council and other Menifee commission meetings have been held by Z oom and other teleconferencing methods since the COVID-19 pandemic forced the closure of large gatherings until state and county health restrictions were lifted. Since April 12, the Menifee city council meetings and other public meetings have been declared “open” in the orange tier.

N ow a limited number people are allowed in the council chambers at City Hall, 29 Haun oad, during the meeting. Most Menifee city offices were opened Monday, April 12, but social distancing and TRASH from

mas -wearing re uirements remain during shorter weekday hours.

The shorter hours and number of people allowed at a time is posted in the city hall lobby. Currently, only nine residents, council members and staff can be seated in the city council chambers during the council meetings. All are separated by plastic partitions or 6-foot distancing.

Councilmembers and staff members at the April 21 meeting appeared happy, while greeting the public observers before officially meeting personally under the new ruling.

The meeting, which is still presented on Facebook and other telemedia, heard a presentation by Daniel Soltero, senior analyst of the Western Riverside Council of Governments. Those at the meeting and watching on Facebook and other media witnessed the passing of a 53 , 31 rebate chec for city’s using LED street lights on utility poles purchased by the city from

Southern California Edison.

The city of Menifee and 1 other cities offered to enter into an agreement with WRCOG to buy almost 5 0,000 street lights from SCE and change their lights from sodium to LEDs to have better lighting at a much lower cost. Each city bought and now owns the utility poles with the street lights. Menifee changed more than 6,000 light bulbs on the street lights they brought to the more energy and environmentally efficient D bulbs leading to a cost reduction of electric power from SCE. The savings will eventually be passed on to the city’s utility customers.

“The cost savings is really a benefit to the city,” esa Sobe , Menifee Mayor Pro Tem, said.

The city council, after some discussion, approved a somewhat revised public recognition policy that allows the city council, staff or sometimes the public to honor and recognize individuals for their achievements in helping the city or

its residents through proclamations, certificates or pla ues. The only thing not allowed in the recognition policy are those intended to promote private or public business.

The recognition must be to honor actions that benefit the entire community.

The city does have a business recognition program through its Spotlight on Business program to promote businesses in the community aside from the formal recognition program. That night Chute Systems, a company in Menifee that manufactures laundry and trash chutes that employs 25 workers, mostly from the city, was the business spotlight that evening.

The business is located on Z eiders Road in the city.

The council, under a consent item, approved a professional services agreement for an amount not to exceed 3,2 9,1 to Do ken Engineering that is to provide project approval and environmental documents and plans, specifica-

tions and estimates for the McCall oulevard and Interstate 215 Interchange Project. The funding for the major Capital Improvement Project will be coming from Developer Improvement Fees and Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fees. The project will take years to complete after it begins.

They also approved an agreement with CannonDesign for architectural and engineering design services for a new Fire Station N o. 5 in an amount not to exceed 612,3 7.

“The station doesn’t have anything,” a council member said.

The station will be located on Goetz Road in Q uail V alley.

The approval led to a statement from city manager Armando V illa that in May the Menifee Fire Department will receive its new ladder truck, which brought applause from the council. The truck was ordered in 2020 using Measure DD sales tax funding.

said, “I am really happy to see this event in action again after having to take 2020 off due to COVID-19. It’s such a great event for our whole community and having a way to come together safely is more important than ever. It was great to see so many smiling faces.”

Other city council members, Mayor Bill Z immerman and Mayor Pro Tem Lesa Sobek, were seen at the two trash pickup sites at Kabian Park on Goetz Street and at Heritage High School in Romoland, now part of Menifee.

They were joined by Habitat for Humanity officials and volunteers at the senior homes in the Sun City area. Other council members and city staff members oined in the trash collection in different par s around the city.

Motorists saw the volunteers wearing bright colored vests picking up trash at five locations along N ewport and Murrieta roads until approximately 11 3 a.m.

More than 15 community volunteers participated in helping to fill five -yard bins with 5 loads dropped off and four front loader trash truc s, plus four -yard rolloff bins and an e-waste bin were all filled at abian Par , the second drop-off point.

I purchased a book today, called No One Succeeds Alone, by the owner of Compass, Robert Reffkin.

This book discusses upholding the culture of our company and how we aim to keep the bar high for every single agent and employee who joins Compass and that we’re holding each other to a high standard of integrity, professionalism and collaborative spirit, as well. A quote from Robert reads, “I think you’d be surprised how many times listening to your conscience actually helps your business. There’s a common myth that you have to be ruthless in order to get ahead, but I’ve found the opposite to be true. Nice people succeed much more often than mean people.

And they sleep better at night, too.” Today, and always, I am committed to upholding these values, that strengthen our culture and our business. You can be assured of this when you work with our team!

I am always really happy to know when our local businesses are doing well. I never mind waiting if needed, because it just means they are busy serving other folks...probably neighbors. It is always a pleasure to see folks we know while shopping in a local store.

On the other hand, I know how tough it is for small businesses to make it. Let’s all do our part and support our local small businesses and treat all employees and owners with the respect and consideration they deserve.

San Jacinto city accepts $186,548 light bill rebate from WRCOG Tony Ault STAFF WRITER

“This is really ma ing us a safer place,” Crystal Ruiz, mayor pro tem of San J acinto, said, applauding the city’s purchase and retrofitting of more than 1, streetlights from Southern California Edison at the April 20 San J acinto city council meeting.

The city manager Rob J ohnson and council members before the meeting accepted a 1 6,5 rebate check from Daniel Soltero, senior analyst of Western Riverside Council of Governments, for the savings in the streetlight purchase over the past year.

WRCOG is the initiating agency who proposed area cities in the region buy the power poles in their city from Southern California

Edison and place new LED lamps in the lights to improve visibility at night and reduce costs for all the citie’s electric utility users. Eleven cities chose to join WRCOG in making the purchase of more than 5 0,000 streetlights and have the cities retrofit them with D instead of sodium lamps. Most were completed last year. San acinto retrofitted 1, 99 lights at the end of 2020.

WRCOG surveys showed the purchase of the lights offered by SCE would save electric customers and cities millions of dollars over the next decade. This has proven to be the case said Soltero in the council meeting presentation.

“Once purchased, streetlights lamps would be retrofitted to D, and maintenance ( replacing lights,

pole knockdowns, etc.) would be implemented under a regional contract,” Soltero said in his presentation.

He said the major objectives of the program to save energy, save on jurisdiction utility bills, enhance public safety, create “smart cities” and add revenuegenerating opportunities have been proven out giving the city this past year’s rebate check.

The savings to the city would be passed on in the lower city utility bills sent to the city utility users.

San J acinto has its own public utilities company, but purchases power from SCE. N ow the city owns most of the utility street light poles in the city and takes the responsibility of maintaining them and the lights. LED lights provide more visibility, especially

in determining colors and cutting down atmospheric glow than the old sodium lights which produce a yellow light.

In other business, the council unanimously approved the new development code amendments in its consent calendar that better defines the allowable land uses in residential, commercial and office zones, industrial zones, special purpose zones, development and use standards, fences, walls and hedges, off-street par ing and loading standards, accessory structures and uses, site plan and design review and non-substantive, minor typographical corrections throughout the development code. Public hearings were offered in the proposals with no objections.

In her city council report and

after attending a legislative meeting with an association of southern California governments, Ruiz chided a number of state legislative bills coming to the state government which she concluded would affect the city’s local control of many facets of development and zoning and asked the council to send letters of their disapproval to the state legislators representing the area.

The council also issued a proclamation honoring the retirement of Paul D. J ones II, for his longtime services with the Eastern Municipal Water District Board of Directors. J ones assisted San J acinto with many of its flood control and water projects.

Murrieta City Council passes resolution denouncing hate crimes Diane A. Rhodes SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

Murrieta City Council member Lori Stone proposed the passage of a resolution to condemn hate crimes, racism, discrimination or animus targeting any minority in the United States at the city council’s regular meeting Tuesday, April 20. Stone said she felt it was necessary to make this public declaration after an incident at the 12 Church that occurred before a J ewish Remembrance Day event, April 11.

Although the defaming, antiSemitic flyers around the outside

of the Murrieta church were found to be posted by a couple of local teenagers, it raised q uestions as to what motivated them to commit such a hateful act.

Stone read part of the resolution, “Whereas, we witness a disturbing rate of hate crimes across the United States against people of color, religions, sexual orientation and nationality, and most recently, we have witnessed Asian Americans being violently assaulted in response to COVID-19 originating in China which must cease and be condemned.”

Tim Thompson, lead pastor of 12 Church in Murrieta, spo e

about the incident and reaffirmed his church’s support of the city’s strong J ewish roots. He applauded Stone for initiating the resolution that would bring the issue to light and hopefully help to prevent any future issues. It was passed unanimously.

Discussion items included Murrieta police Chief Anthony Conrad outlining the need for a new communications tower to better serve the entire area. To be constructed on Hollingsworth Hill, the additional Public Safety Enterprise Communications system is designed to improve interoperability during critical incidents and correct

Other fossil exhibits on display through windows featured some scientists who were cleaning up prehistoric fossil bones as everyone watched. The bones of a baby dinosaur, almost completely intact, were shown in its protective outer case.

Margaret Ozborn, museum educator of Western Science Center, was at the center’s simulated dig sites where students from the Western Science Academy and other museum-sponsored education programs can dig and find different planted fossils with the object of trying to identify them and determine their approximate age.

She said she was delighted to greet the visitors to tell them about what the dig sites are all about.

She said she enjoyed talking to the children and their parents again after the dig sites were closed for so long.

“I’m slowly getting ad usted to this and my family… I’m really looking forward to working with the kids again but I still have to get caught up,” Ozborn said.

Dooley said that once the COVID-19 pandemic slows down even more, he hoped the center museum would be doing the outdoor event more freq uently, possibly every two weeks.

The museum is located at 2345 Searl Parkway in Hemet and has been closed since March 2020.

Dooley said he was hoping the museum itself would again be

The Western Science Center has one of the largest displays of ice age mastodon and ice age dinosaur fossils in the nation, thousands of them found in the San J acinto V alley and now under the Diamond V alley Lake.

Paleontologists and scientists from throughout the world come to the museum to study the fossils or seek information about them.

Temecula opera singer appears on game show

Chelsea Snow performs on the “G ame of Talents” stage.

Chelsea Snow is a young opera singer, who has won numerous singing competitions.

Valley News/Courtesy photo

Diane A. Rhodes SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

Temecula teen Chelsea Snow spent a pre-pandemic year winning 13 singing competitions, including two international events. Before COVID-19 halted public performances and concerts, the 16-yearold opera singer was headed to the competitive television show “America’s Got Talent.”

After auditioning in J anuary 2020, she was invited to the Pasadena Performing Arts Center in March to sing in front of the judges but no audience.

“It was ama ing since it had been a huge dream of mine to be on the show,” Snow said. “I got stopped by Simon ( Cowell) who wanted me to choose a different song. I was set to return the following week to sing another song and that’s when the q uarantine hit, and all the studios were shut down.”

It was her fifth year auditioning for the show. She said she was thrilled to have made it so far but disappointed she was bumped

and that the show moved forward with only those who had already completed their auditions.

When she was invited to be part of FO television’s new “Game of Talents” show in N ovember, Snow said she jumped at the opportunity to be on the stage again.

The unscripted variety show has contestants guessing the hidden talent of various performers based only on a short introduction and a few clues. She participated in the third episode, which was taped when she was still 15 and aired March 24. She spent four days at the studio to record the show.

“It was so much fun,” Snow said. “If I could it again, I would do it a million times over; just to be on set totally made my year.”

The Temecula teen said she has been singing for as long as she can remember, but she developed a love for opera when she was -years-old and saw a stage production of “Phantom of the Opera.”

“When I saw Phantom’ that became the apex of my dreams;

I said this is what I want to do,” Chelsea said. “Opera will always have a special place in my heart. I feel a connection to opera because it’s just beautiful. I love the stories, the music and the flow of it all together; it really gets to my heart.”

Of the 13 competitions she won in 2 19, most were held in the summer when she was out of school. Two bac -to-bac ma or events were held on the same wee end, she said. The first was The World Championship of Performing Arts in Long Beach.

“It was ind of li e the Olympics with 67 countries competing, and I won three gold medals and a silver medal for Team USA,” she said. ext, the family flew to ei ing, China, for her performance at the Chinese Water Cube Cup, where she was selected as the grand prize winner. More than 7, singers worldwide auditioned, and the top were invited to perform during five rounds of competition.

She learned and performed five songs in Chinese, even though she doesn’t speak the language. It was narrowed down to two singers who then performed on live television.

She was invited to appear on “China’s Got Talent” but had to

drop out because the filming was being done in Shanghai and she was in Beijing at the time.

“Competitions are fun, and it gets your adrenaline going, but to me, the goal was never really about the winning or the prize money. It was just about going out to sing for people and see all different types of talents centralized in one showcase,” she said. “It’s a lot of fun to get out on the stage, forget about everything and sing my heart out. I just love seeing the reaction of others when I sing to them from my heart.”

Snow said she was fortunate to find a local opera instructor early on who helped her realize her full potential as an opera singer and performer. She learned breathing techniq ue exercises that helped her develop her vocal power.

“I have to ma e sure I have enough breath support when I sing those very rigorous opera arias,” she said. “When you sing an opera aria, most of the time it’s in a different language, and you have to make sure you are expressing it accurately.”

Snow said she has sung other music styles such as pop, blues and Broadway, but she enjoys opera most. In 2 1 , she won the oys

Girls Club Idol 9 competition with her rendition of Lionel Ritchie’s “Hello.”

“I have this passion for singing,” she said. “If you have a love for something, there is nothing that will ever stop it. If you truly love something it will always be there.”

Her Grammy award-winning grandfather, Earle Doud, created “The First Family” comedy album in 1962. nown best for his political humor, Doud’s good-natured parody of former President J ohn F. ennedy sold more than 7.5 million copies and remained at o. 1 on the illboard 2 for 12 wee s.

During the time she was not able to compete, she devoted time to her other interests such as drawing, playing the piano and roller skating. She also excels in her academic studies. While in middle school, she developed an interest in cardiology and a love for the medical field, she said.

“I have this unconditional love for singing, but balance is key,” she said. “ ot all days are perfect, but I always try to get a certain amount of something done. It’s important to have a consistent schedule.”

Menifee City Council discusses CIP project progress in special meeting Tony Ault STAFF WRITER

A two-hour special meeting and workshop called by the Menifee City Council reviewed the city’s current Community Improvement Projects completed, in progress and planned for the future that amount to over 7 million in the next two decades.

The meeting, which was held Tuesday, April 20, in the council chambers, brought most city engineering and community improvement officials together to discuss the many projects planned for the city now with more than 1 , residents and growing.

The council had the opportunity

to add any new projects to the list already planned and the progress on the CIP and General Plan already scheduled.

The report showed there were 33 completed CIP projects, including the Scott and Menifee roads missing sidewalks, Murrieta Road resurfacing from McCall to Salt Creek roads, Hillpointe Community Street resurfacing, trail and park enhancements and lighting of sports fields, sport court resurfacing and park shade structures.

Work continues on some and other CIP projects in the city at this time, with 24 new CIP projects planned in the years 2 2 and 2 21 some over 1 million. The Holland Street Road overpass is the

largest at a cost of 1 , 15,36 .

Other CIP projects planned for the next two years costing over 1 million include the radley Bridge over Salt Creek, Scott and Bundy Canyon Road widening, McCall Boulevard widening from Oakhurst to Menifee roads, Bailey Road improvements, Menifee Road at Garbani Road signal lighting, Menifee Road resurfacing continuing, the purchase of a new police head uarters and new financial software. The other projects are listed under 1 million. The project funding comes from Measure DD, transportation mitigation

fees, developer improvement funds and grants.

The council after reviewing the CIP project plans and achievements added little to the list but asked several q uestions.

Councilmember Bob Karwin showed his concern about the widening of Holland Road and suggested a trail be next to it and if the Holland Road overpass plan would be starting soon and if the added land needed had been procured. He was assured that deals had already been made to buy up the needed right of way for the project, but it would take some time to complete.

Mayor Pro Tem Lesa Sobek was concerned at the Baily Road resurfacing project and why and if the city had to pay for it.

Councilmember Dean Deines asked why the Rancho La V ita resurfacing had been delayed and said the McCall Boulevard widening project was long overdue and needed to be done.

Many of the CIP project details were shared earlier in city council meetings as they were shown to be needed.

Temecula and EMWD approve Heirloom Farms CFD Joe Naiman WRITER

The community facilities district for the Heirloom Farms development in north Temecula was approved recently.

The CFD will pay for Temecula services and also city infrastructure, and the CFD will also finance Eastern Municipal Water District infrastructure. The MWD board voted 5- , March 17, to approve the CFD, while the April 13 Temecula City Council meeting included a -1 vote, with FLOWERS from

ames “Stew” Stewart opposed, to form the CFD. The Temecula City Council is also the governing body of the Temecula Public Financing Authority, which is responsible for the CFD on behalf of the city.

A community facilities district includes a special tax that is sometimes nown as mello-roos due to the state legislators who created the option for services on new development to be funded by an annual assessment to fund the services and/ or infrastructure. A J oint Communities Facilities Agreement

stipulates the collection and distribution process for the taxes. If the 1 property tax is not sufficient to pay for maintenance, fire protection and other services a CFD may be formed for those services and that CFD would be perpetual.

A CFD may also pay for infrastructure including capacity fees which are charged to developers to cover the new development’s share of existing infrastructure, and that assessment ends when the bonds are paid off. The CFD will also pay for the reimbursement to government agencies for their staff

time and other expenses to form the CFD, the cost to issue bonds, and the annual costs to administer the CFD. An assessment must be approved by a majority of property owners, although a developer who owns an undeveloped parcel may vote in favor of the CFD and once the property is subdivided those property owners are responsible for the assessments. “ o resident can bring this up in a future action,” Stewart said.

Temecula mayor Maryann Edwards noted that the purchase of

property with an assessment is voluntary.

“They cast their vote by choosing to buy a home with the taxes in place,” she said. “When they agree to purchase the home, they vote by purchasing the home.”

Heirloom Farms is being developed by Meritage Homes. The project north of Winchester Road and west of Y nez Road anticipated 321 residential units along with amenities.

has chaired the flower show for the past 15 years, said. “Our show gives visitors the opportunity to see what grows in our valley and to have the opportunity to speak with gardeners and floral designers. It also gives our participants a place to showcase their hard work and talents.”

She explained that horticulture division entries are a cut specimen that features a flower of some sort, grown by the participant.

“This is such a simple way to enter the show,” Dodd said.

“Participants simply bring in their entry and we supply the vase, so all specimens are judged only by the health and beauty of the flower. They can be a single stem, flower cluster or flowering branch. Then we have categories for potted plants, like succulents, and we have categories for mixed plantings.”

Ribbons awarded in various categories are based on condition and grooming, distinction and cultural perfection. The design division is for exhibitors who create an arrangement with homegrown or purchased plants. Ribbon awarding is based on design, artistic concept, expression and distinction.

Dodd said Master Gardeners serve as flower show udges and ribbons are awarded for first, second, third, honorable mention and sweepstakes in each category. The best in show winner will receive The Cheryl French Award, named for a longtime member who was

Her mother, Sonya Matthies, entered her first flower show in 1956 when she was 1 years old.

“I love everything about the Elsinore Woman’s Club annual flower show,” she said. “The excitement of preparing the club for the show, getting the word out throughout our beautiful valley to encourage people to enter arrangements or specimens or just come and en oy the beautiful flowers.

Upon entering the clubhouse after arrangements and specimens are all in place, the aroma is amazing.”

Which is better a will or a living trust?

Why cannot husband and wife simply keep all assets jointly titled and forget about a Living Trust? The generational passing of a m arried c ouples’ assets is v ery im portant to ac hiev e.

lie’s middle son. than esvaloso celebrated his one-year wedding anniversary in March. Growing up in Oregon and Washington, he enlisted in the military following high school graduation. He said he en oys being part of the helicopter crew. osalie esvaloso said than Resvaloso has not yet decided if he will make the Marines a career but always wanted to be in that branch of service after being part of his high school’s unior OTC program. He said the most important thing he has learned since enlistment is discipline and he feels going into the service has been a good education and experience for him.

The couple’s 2 -year-old grandson, J osh Resvaloso, is graduating from Oregon State University where he ma ored in natural resources with an option in fish and wildlife conservation. His father is their oldest son, Harvey esvaloso J r.

“I was the first in my household to go to college, so it was difficult trying to figure out the application process,” J osh Resvaloso said. “ Some tips that I would suggest would be to as as many uestions as possible to teachers, advisers or any person that has been to college before to help you through the process.”

He said he en oys snowboarding, fishing and hunting and plans to pursue a career in forest service, agriculture or any other nature-

Rosalie and Harvey Resvaloso Sr. said they are proud of their six grandchildren, who are all making a difference in the world by following a path that started with a strong foundation. One graduated from Oregon State University and two others will graduate from there Saturday, J une 12. “ They were all raised to make a better life for themselves than they had growing up,” Rosalie Resvaloso said. “ They understood that there would be many more opportunities for them if they went to school and learned about different things.”

Their great-grandmother, leanor Gome , was Soboba’s first female Tribal Chair. Harvey evaloso Sr. wor ed in the mobile home manufacturing industry for more than 30 years, and Rosalie esvaloso retired from Oregon’s Greater Albany Public School District after 14 years working in its computer lab.

Their grandson Thomas Myers was inspired by his father, grandfather and great-grandfather to enlist in the U.S. N avy. After graduating from Oregon State University with a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering, he will join the N avy as an officer. Following his service, he plans a career in the automotive field.

“I didn’t grow up on the Soboba eservation, but my mom and

grandparents would make trips in the summer to visit my aunt, Patricia Arres,” Thomas, 23, said. “ We would stay and hang out at the pool or go to Disneyland when I was younger.”

Myers visited her this past summer and stayed several weeks, which is the usual length of time he and his family would stay to visit in previous years.

“Soboba Par was a fond place to take them and we would go out to eat together,” Arres said. “ There was a pool there with slides and the kids would run around and play; they loved the park.”

Arres recalled other family members oining in and having barbecues outside.

Myers said college was not without its challenges as he had to learn how to balance his time and stay motivated. “ I would advise others to start early on all assignments and get help during the week so you can enjoy the weekend,” he said. “ It may seem like a monumental task, but each class is another step closer to finishing your education.”

When he was younger, Myers en oyed playing baseball. While in college, he tried the avy OTC and Baja Racing teams. “ Both were very fun with lots of great people involved,” he said.

Acq uire some gear to simplify your nex t beach trip T M C A Days at the beach are tailor-made for anyone looking for a little rest and relaxation. If there was a recipe for calmness, it would no doubt include the sound of waves crashing on the shoreline and seagulls flying overhead. each days are even more relaxing when beach-goers load up on the right gear. As beach season begins anew, people who can’t wait to dip their toes in the water can load up on these items to make their trips even more relaxing.

Beach wagons make it easy to transport beach chairs, umbrellas, toys and other must-have beach items, all in one convenient trip.

There are many varieties of beach wagon, and consumers should look for ones with all-terrain wheels that can easily navigate sandy beaches. oad capacity is another factor to consider before buying a beach wagon, as beach-goers will want to make sure their wagons can tote everything they typically ta e to the beach in a single trip.

but it doesn’t hurt to loo for one with sturdy, all-terrain wheels.

But cooling capacity with enough insulation to eep food and beverages cool during a long day at the

beach should be shoppers’ biggest priority.

Water-repellent beach bags can protect devices like smartphones, tablets and e-readers from sand

and surf. Separate such devices and other electronics, li e a portable spea er or radio, in their own bags to reduce the ris of getting sand on them. Store items that will

inevitably gather sand, li e towels, clothing and beach toys, in their own designated beach bags.

Many beach-goers have a favorite beach. If it’s a long wal from the parking lot of your favorite beach to your preferred spot on the sand, bring along a bac pac chair for each person in your group.

Such chairs can free up space on your beach wagon, and chairs strapped over your shoulders like a bac pac won’t be a nuisance to carry, even if it’s a long wal from the car to the sand.

Soggy beach towels can ta e a while to dry, especially as the day wears on and the sun begins to set. uic -dry beach towels typically employ microfiber technology that allows them to dry more uic ly than traditional cotton towels. That saves beach-goers the trouble of lugging around heavy, wet beach towels and also ensures items like beach bags and chairs are dry by the time you go home.

Beach days are the epitome of relaxation, especially when beachgoers stock up on certain essentials designed to make such days more en oyable.

4 ways continued remote work could torpedo business and career success AT A TA The rise of remote wor has changed the face of business, and in some cases brightened the outlook for employees weary of battling traffic during morning and late-afternoon commutes.

Many of those employees hope their companies will stick with this new wor -from-home reality even after the pandemic is nothing more than an unhappy memory. ut despite the benefits, continuing remote wor beyond what is necessary could result in serious conse uences, Clint Padgett, president and C O of Pro ect Success Inc. and the Forbes oo s author of “ How Teams Triumph: Managing y Commitment,” said. “ Working from home limits the interaction between employees and their managers and co-wor ers,” Padgett said. “That might be fine for a short time, but over the long haul, it means you aren’t developing relationships or communicating in ways necessary to create a cohesive team.”

So far, most people choose to focus on the upsides. More than half 5 of remote wor ers say that if given a choice they would want to keep working from home even after the pandemic, according to the Pew esearch Center.

Padgett said employees and their employers may both come to regret that view. He said there are several potential downsides of permanent work from home.

Employee burnout When someone leaves an office at the end of the day, they put both actual distance and emotional distance between themselves and wor . With remote wor , the barrier between home and wor is removed, which could lead to greater instances of burnout, Padgett said.

As a result, people are more likely to produce poor uality wor or leave their current obs in search of something they hope will be better, he said.

The end of “ serendipitous” meetings In an office setting, not every exchange of ideas happens in scheduled meetings or formal

brainstorming sessions. People see each other in hallways or the brea room and start to chat. “ Those organic conversations often result in creative thinking and problem-solving,” Padgett said. “That’s a missing ingredient in the creative process with remote work.”

An increase of “ silo-it is” ven in an office, human nature leads people to see out li eminded individuals, which means people within departments often stick together unless steps are taken to make sure they interact with others. “ With the lack of physical interaction that remote work gives us, we will be even more isolated, working only within the team structure,” Padgett said. “That’s problematic because you get better results when people come out of their silos.”

The potential for lower pay One of the perks of remote work is that people can live where they please and no longer need to be in the same general area as company head uarters. It means they can abandon high-cost areas in favor of communities where housing is cheaper. ut Padgett pointed out that there are already news reports that some employers are considering paying people less as a result.

Right now, remote work is the reality for many people, so to get the most out of it, managers should be proactive about ma ing sure remote workers are actively included in oom meetings, Padgett said.

“And while I now nobody wants more Z oom meetings, people may need to schedule one-onone time with co-wor ers or to gather virtually in small groups ust to chat and discuss non-wor related topics. “ That can help restore some of those serendipitous moments and reduce the problems associated with a return to silos,” he said.

EDUCATION

Mt. San Jacinto College earns ‘Military Friendly Spouse School’ designation SA ACI TO Mt. San acinto College has been named a “Military Friendly Spouse School” for 2 21-2 22 for its efforts in creating sustainable and meaningful education paths for military spouses.

In February, the college also earned the “Military Friendly” designation that measures a school’s commitment to student veteran and dependent recruitment, persistence and success. The college earned the “ silver” distinction, a high honor that only a select group of institutions achieve.

The list is created using data sources from federal agencies and proprietary survey information from participating organizations to create a comprehensive guide for

military spouses looking to further their education. In its 1 2th year, the Military Friendly Schools list has come to set the standard for higher education institutions to provide the best opportunities for veterans and their dependents.

Military students and military spouses attending MS C benefit from an array of collegewide support services, including the MS C Veterans esource Centers on the Menifee Valley and San acinto campuses. The centers support the transition and success of MS C military students and their spouses.

For more information, contact veterans@ m sj c.e du.

Age-appropriate chores for children T M C A Few people look forward to chores around the house. Though adults may not be excited by the prospect of mopping the itchen floor or folding the laundry, their lack of enthusiasm no doubt pales in comparison to their children’s opinion of chores.

Chores can play a vital role in children’s development. According to the American Academy of Child Adolescent Psychiatry, children can learn time management s ills by doing their chores, which also can teach them how to balance wor and play time.

Children can apply those lessons throughout their childhood and into adulthood. Giving children chores also benefits them by teaching them to accept responsibility within the family and providing them with an opportunity to be successful.

Parents may have a long to-do list in regard to chores around the house, and it can be tempting to share that workload with youngsters. The AACAP, however,

The AA AP offers the following age-based chore suggestions to parents as they look to give their children more responsibility around the house.

Valley News/Courtesy photo

noted the importance of picking age-appropriate chores for children. Children given chores more suited for older youngsters may fail at completing those tasks.

Such failure may set a negative precedent that adversely affects children’s self-esteem and ma es them reluctant to do their chores

in the future. On the flip side, the AACAP said that pic ing an age-appropriate chore for a child will increase their likelihood of success, which can boost their confidence and ma e them more likely to approach their chores with enthusiasm as they navigate their way through childhood and

into adolescence.

The AACAP offered the following age-based chore suggestions to parents as they look to give their children more responsibility around the house.

2 - to 3-year-olds Children in this age group can put their toys away and help put groceries away as well. Stick to groceries that can be dropped without brea ing or spilling, which rules out jars of pasta sauce or mil and uice. Children in this age group also can start to dress themselves, though the AACAP recommended parents offer help when necessary so children do not become discouraged.

4- to 5-year-olds Four- and 5-year-olds can help feed pets and ma e their beds.

In addition, children in this age group can help clear the table after meals, but parents should be sure to ta e sharp ob ects li e nives to the sin before children begin helping.

6- to 7-year-olds This is a good age for children

to begin ta ing on more complicated chores, including wiping tables and counters, putting laundry away and sweeping floors.

7- to 9 -year-olds Children in this age group can help their parents prepare meals and even pack their own lunch for school. The responsibility of loading and unloading the dishwasher also can be given to children between the ages of seven and nine.

10 - to 11-year-olds More difficult tas s li e changing the sheets on their beds, cleaning itchens and bathrooms and doing yard work are appropriate for children in this age group.

12 -years-old and older Children 12 and older can help ta e care of younger siblings and pitch in with grocery shopping and running errands.

Chores play a vital role as children grow up and mature. Assigning age-appropriate chores is important as parents look to help their children develop into responsible adolescents.

This summer brides and grooms can find ways to give their special day some uni ue touches that reflect their personality and love.

Family Features SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

A wedding day is filled with symbolic tradition, from varied religious customs to the neverending circle reflected in the rings and the types of flowers accentuating the celebration. ven with all the traditional rituals to consider, nearly every bride and groom can find ways to give their special day

some uni ue touches that reflect their personality and love.

Music sets the mood for every wedding, and it’s an easy place to put your own spin on the celebration. Whether you forgo the traditional bridal march entirely or simply look for an arrangement that gives an updated twist to the classic version, let guests know this isn’t your average wedding by setting the festivities against

a soundtrack that lets your true character shine.

The wedding party is intended to be a collection of those nearest and dearest to the bride and groom, who help ensure the day goes off without a hitch and who lead fellow revelers in celebrating the start of the new couple’s life together. That being said, there’s no reason this group must be limited to women on her side and guys on his, or even that it’s limited to humans a beloved pooch can ma e for an adorable ring-bearer, after all.

Photography is an essential element of your big day, but thin beyond the images you’ll capture throughout the wedding and reception. Photos lend a personal touch, no matter what your color scheme or theme. Integrate photos of the two of you at various stages of life, together as a couple and with loved ones, perhaps even some you’re honoring in memoriam. Y ou can display these at a table with the guest boo , as part of the table centerpieces, or even on the gift table. Or ta e things digital and load all your images into a slide show set to music.

Ma e favors meaningful. Forgo

more common items li e bubbles and chocolate, and instead send a little of yourself home with your guests. Maybe it’s a memento from a place with special meaning to you both, or a bottle opener shaped li e a bicycle to represent the way you met. ust thin about the moments and things that define you as a couple and do some searching online. ou’ll probably be surprised by how uic ly the options pile up.

Serve up a menu that shows guests more about your life together. Y our loved ones can order basic beef or chic en anywhere.

Instead, give them a glimpse into you. Make your main course the same food you enjoyed on your first date or during another monumental moment in your courtship.

Or plan the entire menu around a region that you hold close to your heart.

Weddings are filled with traditions, but that doesn’t mean you can’t put your own touches on the day for a special event filled with memories that are uni uely your own. Find more advice for life’s special moments at http: / / elivingtoday.com.

An inaugural virtual and live RunHikeRide event held during the month of March and April to raise funds for school education programs at the Santa osa Plateau cological Reserve was declared a success by the Santa osa Plateau ature ducation Foundation.

The special event, the first one of its ind at the reserve, brought almost 200 runners, hikers and riders either to the Sylvan Meadows trail on the plateau above Murrieta, or virtually, on Faceboo and other social media. The 15 to 5 donation to participate in the event will help the S P F continue its education programs for third and fourth graders from local elementary schools in classrooms or if COVID-19 restrictions are lifted on the 9, -acre reserve off Clinton eith oad in Murrieta.

The S P F experience teaches youngsters how to be good stewards of the natural land around them. The foundation also offers ecological scholarships for high school students and other nature programs each year in cooperation with Riverside County egional Par and Open Space District.

The S P F board said, “Than you to all the participants, volunteers, sponsors and donors who helped ma e this first-event a success.”

The main part of the reserve, except for the Sylvan Meadows Trail, as of the date of this publication remains closed due to the Tena a Fire two years ago that ravaged much of the reserve and the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions. The burned

Movie Review: ‘Voyagers’ Bob Garver SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

Before I get into trashing sixth place wee end box office finisher “Voyagers,” I want to ta e some time to say some nice things about eighth place finisher “In the arth.” The latter film played on less than a third as many screens as “Voyagers,” yet it made nearly two-thirds as much money. The underpromoted horror movie is one of the most pleasant surprises I’ve seen in a long time. And by “ pleasant,” I mean in terms of uality, not sub ect matter, because there are some brutal scenes in that film. ut if the film is playing in your area, if you can handle an -rated horror film and if you can withstand a barrage of strobe and other potentially nauseating lighting effects, then I recommend seeing it. I would have given it a

grade of if I weren’t stuc reviewing “Voyagers,” a bomb that is playing on nearly 2,000 screens, but in its second wee end couldn’t beat “Tom erry” in its eighth.

The film follows a group of children bred specifically to go on an 6-year space mission to a distant planet that may be the ey to saving humanity. The only adult onboard the ship is tutor ichard, played by Colin Farrell. As the mission slowly progresses, the children grow into teenagers, their hormones and pleasure centers suppressed by a drugged li uid.

Two of the teens, Christopher, played by Tye Sheridan, and ac, played by Fionn Whitehead, get wise to the drugs and experiment with not taking the drugs, in what I suppose is the opposite of the typical teen experimentation experience. Christopher handles his heightened senses reasonably

responsibly, but ac does not.

In what will no doubt go down as the most infamous scene in the movie, he commits an act of sexual assault on medical officer Sela, played by ily- ose Depp.

Shortly after, a scene of more traditional violence occurs as ichard is seemingly attac ed by a space monster. N ow the teens are left to fend for themselves, and they are angry, scared, lustful and above all, dangerous. ased on feelings toward the mission and fear of the monster, or “beast,” if you will, the teens brea off into two groups. The more impulsive and animalistic crew members follow J ack, er, Z ac; and the more levelheaded ones follow Ralph, I mean, Christopher. And if you don’t now by now which boo this movie is ripping off, let me ust add that there’s a bespectacled girl named Pheobe, played by

Chante Adams, whose name is close to Piggy, and things don’t go well for her. nough beating around the bush, it’s “ ord of the Flies.” This movie is “ ord of the Flies” in space.

The mystery of what happened to Richard is painfully easy to figure out, as is the mystery surrounding the space monster. As a matter of fact, I felt like I was always way ahead of any twist the movie was going to throw at me.

As for the action, it takes forever to get going, and when it does, the characters chase each other throughout the ship down what is almost certainly the same corridor set. It reminded me of that obviously and repeatedly used staircase set from “ The Big Bang Theory.”

I’d say to stay away from “Voyagers,” but since the movie hasn’t risen above fifth place at the box

office since it opened, it doesn’t seem people need to be told that.

The actors are putting their bac s into what must have seemed like a uicy script about sexual awa ening in space, but between page and screen this movie ust became blah. I’m hoping that “In the arth” builds up enough of a cult following among adult viewers and it does need to be adults, and ones who can handle an assault on the senses at that that I’ll wind up regretting the choice to review this lousy movie.

Grade C“Voyagers” is rated PG-13 for violence, some strong sexuality, bloody images, a sexual assault and brief strong language. Its running time is 1 08 minutes.

Murrieta Mesa baseball defeats Vista Murrieta

Murrieta Mesa H igh School’s Carter G arate is caught in a run down during Southwestern L eague action at V ista Murrieta H igh School.

Murrieta Mesa H igh School’s Jh ayden R aineri picks up his fourth win of the season and third win in the Southwestern L eague Friday, April 23, against V ista Murrieta H igh School.

Derryl Trujillo SPECIAL TO THE VALLEY NEWS

Murrieta Mesa ( 15-2 , 5-0 SWL) : 3 Vista Murrieta ( 10 -5, 3-2 SWL) : 2 WP: Raineri, Jh ayden: 5 IP, 4 Hits,1 R un, 4 K, 6 BB LP: Pirko, Lucas: 4 IP, 5 Hits, 2 Runs, 6 K, 1 B B There’s no doubt that V ista Murrieta High School is the standard bearer program in Southwestern League baseball. So far in 2021 Murrieta Mesa High School has flown the flag as its only ran ed program 2 by CIF-SS D voters as of Monday, April 19 and they entered Friday, April 23, with a one- game lead. Standing in their way of a two-game lead was multiple time league champion, V ista Murrieta.

Starting pitcher, J hayden Raineri, held V ista Murrieta scoreless until the fifth inning when the Broncos got an RBI single from

Je rrad Gonzalez – scoring K ade oJ h nstone who was wal ed to ma e it 3-1 ams. efore that point the senior, bound for Salem niversity in West Virginia, held his opponents to three hits, three s and a handful of wal s. He was relieved after that inning by Caden Byers, who gave up a lone I hit two out double by J ohnstone but then retired his final four batters to pic up the save and preserve the victory.

Murrieta Mesa’s win over Vista Murrieta is the first since 2 16, when the ams not only won their only Southwestern eague title to date, but also won the CIF Southern Section Division 1 championship that year over Harvard Westla e High School.

Raineri said afterwards, “Today was an all- around team win, and we’re loo ing at this season as unfinished business. As seniors, we tal ed during the brea about ma ing our final year memorable.

We’re doing that so far, but there’s

a lot of baseball between us and a Southwestern League championship.”

Murrieta Mesa got a lone run in their half of the second on Aidan Salcedo’s single which scored Nate May, who reached on an error by Matt Caldera after misreading a deep flyball in right field.

In the fourth, it was again Salcedo coming through with an RBI, this time of the sacrifice fly variety, scoring aineri who led off the inning with an infield single. May also singled but was left stranded as Bronco starter Lucas Pirko escaped more damage.

Salcedo said, “Our seniors have done such a great job of leading this program through some uni ue circumstances. During the shutdown they were on everyone to ma e sure we got our wor in, whether that was in a weight room, throwing, or hitting and we’re reaping those benefits now.”

The am’s tac ed on an insurance run in the fifth with a Byers RBI single. Head coach Mike Wolford, in his first full year leading the program, said after the win.

“We’re playing some good baseball, but if a couple of balls fall dif-

ferently, it’s a different story. That is a good team we just beat, and, in this league, anyone can be beat at any time. These guys are ma ing me loo really good right now with their approaches at the plate and excellent pitching,” Wolford said.

Michelle’s Place Cancer Resource Center completes phase 1 construction T M C A After two and half years of construction, a lot of blood, sweat and tears, Michelle’s Place Cancer esource Center announced the completion of phase one of their center and held an open house Thursday, April 29, for expansion donors.

Michelle’s Place purchased its forever home in une 2 1 . It was a 1 0,000- sq uare- foot shell of a building. Staff and volunteers moved into one portion of the building, while construction started on the other portion. While under construction, Michelle’s Place continued serving cancer patients, expanded their resources to serve all cancers and launched a fundraising campaign to build the region’s first cancer resource center.

Phase one included the completion of a rei i room, a creative space that will house the expressive art class, future coo ing classes and other creative events.

The new construction also houses staff offices, a fitting room, new bathrooms and a wor room.

The nonprofit began construction on phase two. Demolition of the old space began the first of the year, and Michelle’s Place started construction on the space in early February. The renovations will include a new fitting room for wigs and prosthesis, the volunteer welcome station, multipurpose room and patient navigator offices.

Upon completion of phase two, Michelle’s Place will open the region’s only cancer resource center serving families facing

cancer. Michelle’s Place founder and C O, im Gerrish, said she loo s forward to the day when they can offer multiple classes, support groups, yoga and much more.

The center is currently open by appointment for wigs, prosthesis and patient navigation services.

All support groups and classes are hosted virtually.

PETS

Feline facts to purr over

The “meow” sound is not something cats innately produce to interact with other cats; rather, cats began to meow to communicate with humans.

Valley News/Courtesy photo

T M C A Shelters often are the first stop for people who want to become pet parents. The

American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals said around 6.5 million companion

animals enter shelters each year, and 3.2 million are cats. Although shelters do their best to get these animals into new, loving homes, the Humane Society of the nited States said roughly 3 million cats and dogs are euthanized in shelters each year. Sadly, of those animals are healthy, treatable and adoptable. earning what ma es cats tic and their particular needs can help prospective pet parents decide if cats are right for them. It also helps to identify feline behaviors that can be problematic or may req uire correction when cats come into a home.

The following are some facts about cats, courtesy of MS , Fact etriever and Purina food company.

Food-motivated cats li ely will not be tempted by sweet treats.

Stic to savory options. nli e dogs, cats do not have taste receptors for sweet flavors. ions may be ings of the jungle, but domesticated cats are ings among pets. They often beat out dogs as the most popular pet in

orth America.

Cats are very good at hearing sounds and their eyesight is exceptional as well. Cats have 32 ear muscles that allow for “ directional hearing.” Comparatively, humans only have six ear muscles. Cats also can rotate their ears 1 8 0 degrees.

Developmentally spea ing, the first year of a cat’s life is e ual to the first 15 years of a human’s.

After its second year, a cat is the e uivalent of 25 in human years.

Domesticated cats can spend about 7 of the day sleeping.

Another 15 is spent grooming.

Cats do not have nine lives however, they have something called a “righting reflex.” The eyes and balance organs in the inner ear tell cats where they are in space so they can land on their feet. This reflex is what helps them survive falls some from more than 32 stories high.

The “ meow” sound is not something cats innately produce to interact with other cats. Rather, cats began to meow to communicate with humans.

Spayed and neutered cats live longer than non-altered cats, li ely because they do not get lost or in ured trying to mate.

Declawing cats is illegal in at least 22 countries, but not the United States. Cats scratch at items, so they’ll need scratching posts and other outlets for this behavior.

Cats will rub against people not only to be affectionate but also to mar out territory with scent glands around their faces.

Cat litters can be between one and nine ittens, so it is important to neuter them to prevent overpopulation.

Cats can often ump up to five times as high as their own heights. ven though cats have been depicted as drin ing mil , dairy can give them an upset stomach and gas. Provide water instead. esearch shows that cats now and recognize their names, but often they do not come when called. It is a dismissive move and not because cats do not recognize when they’re being called.

How to secure a trustworthy pet sitter T M C A Welcoming a pet of any ind into a home can be a lesson in love as well as one in responsibility. Pet owners must ta e various steps to ensure the safety and well- being of a companion animal, and it includes providing for that animal while on vacation.

How long pets can remain at home alone depends on the pet, its age and its overall health. For example, an a uarium full of fish may thrive for a wee with the assistance of an automatic feeder.

Dogs, however, will need daily bathroom brea s and feedings, according to the Animal Humane Society. Adult dogs may be able to “ hold it” for 10 to 12 hours, but young puppies and elderly dogs li ely need more fre uent brea s outside.

Feeding and cleaning up pet waste is not the only consideration.

Some animals requ ire much more socialization than others.

Pet sitters can address pets’ needs while their owners are away, but finding one who will care for a pet li e they is a member of the family could ta e some time and effort. Hill’s Pet N utrition suggested beginning the process of finding a pet sitter by ma ing a list of needs. Considerations to include are whether the pet sitter should be in one’s home or if the pet is to be brought to a pet care facility or a private sitter’s residence. The pet may have particular health care req uirements that also need to be addressed, such as a dog who requi res insulin shots for diabetes.

While friends and family may be the first choices as pet sitters, there are benefits to using professional pet sitters. A professional sitter is properly trained in the care of

many different animals, according to Pet Sitters International. They may have a local business license and be insured and bonded. Professional sitters are li ely to ma e the pet a priority more than hobbyists or well- meaning acq uaintances because caring for pets is how they earn their livings.

Personal recommendations can be an effective means to finding reliable pet sitters. Pet owners can interview candidates, as ing q uestions about experience with this type of pet, how they handle the breed and temperament, and what the plan might be if the pet gets sic or in ured while in the pet sitter’s care.

Pet sitters provide valuable services when pet owners are away from home. V etting pet sitters ta es a little time, but that effort is well worth it.

Pet sitters can address pets’ needs while their owners are away but finding one who will care for a pet like they is a member of the family could take some time and effort.

The difference between equality and equity

Julie Reeder PUBLISHER

There is a lot of discussion around e uity these days. uality and e uity can be vastly different. uality refers to the value and

worth of every person individually and their ability and right to be treated the same and have an e ual opportunity, no matter what their race, gender, sexual preference, religion, etc. It’s what our country fought for in the Civil ights movement and the women’s movement.

Systemic laws li e im Crow laws were outlawed. If you are a woman, there is nothing you can’t do and presently women graduate from college at a much higher rate than do men. It’s why people have continued to come here from around the world. They ust want a place where, no matter where they came from, they can wor hard and achieve their dreams.

It includes every race. There is no one who can hold you bac if you are a person of color either. We

elected former President arac Obama twice, we have a diverse Supreme Court, Congress and entire towns who are governed by lac mayors, lac city councils, police chiefs, district attorneys, etc. Many of our favorite actors, musicians, sports figures and tal show hosts are people of color. N o one can eep you from achieving anything you are capable of doing as long as you wor hard for it. uity, however, is something uite different. It’s one of those things that sounds good at first blush, but when you thin about it critically, it poses a few challenges. uity is more a philosophy that says we all have the same value and worth so we should be promised the same outcome. There’s a big difference, and it could be disastrous.

Our free mar et system is based on a meritocracy, which is a system where individuals advance on the basis of performance, talent, effort and demonstrated achievement, rather than wealth, political standing or social class.

It may sound “mean” or any number of ad ectives that people may use to describe it, but it wor s really well.

If you go to university and you are failing, it’s not helpful to promise you a diploma anyway in the name of e uity. If you are going to have brain surgery, you want to choose your specialist based on their merit and achievement, not because they were promised a position for any other reason.

If you are offered a position in a company, you want to accept it because you are the best person

for that particular position. If you aren’t, you won’t be happy and the company may fail. If you are a scientist wor ing on a cure for cancer, you need to be the most ualified person. We want the most ualified people flying our airplanes and manning our spaceships.

If you are competing for a position with the a ers against a guy who is 7 - foot- 6 and has practiced 1 , hours of bas etball, it’s actually more “fair” and wor s better for you, the whole team and the fans to base the decision on meritocracy, not e uity. If you aren’t as good as the other bas etball player, it’s not “fair” to grant you the contract rather than the other guy. ow that’s not to say there aren’t see EQ UALI TY , page C-7

Efficiency is key to building water-wise communities

Greg Thomas SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

At lsinore Valley Municipal Water District, we’re passionate about building water- wise communities. We’re proud of all the steps that our customers and staff have ta en to embrace water use efficiency as an essential way of life here in Southern California even in wet years.

When it comes to conserving water, we’ve seen that small, everyday actions can add up to ma e a big difference in securing safe, reliable water supplies for generations to come.

As many of you may have heard,

our state water forecast loo s grim due to a dry winter, and it appears we are on our way to another drought. We all must do our part, and we have many ways to help our valued customers save water.

VMWD’s efforts to assist our customers in ta ing advantage of water-wise rebates and devices are currently saving more than 25 acre-feet of water every year, enough water for 7 00 homes for an entire year. That’s also a savings of more than 2 , in costly imported water, which has a significant impact on bills.

To eep the water-use efficiency momentum going, we’re rolling out an exciting “ There’s a Rebate for That” program with rebate information and eligibility reminders for our customers. We invite you to visit http www.evmwd.com conservation to learn how you can apply for rebates on drip irrigation systems, high-efficiency clothes washers, hot water recirculating devices, premium high-efficiency toilets, rain barrels and cisterns, rotating sprin ler no les, soil moisture sensors, turf replacement and weather- based irrigation controllers.

In addition, through VMWD’s advanced meter technology, cus-

tomers can now ta e control of their water use and monitor their water consumption online. Our high-tech A uaHaw system helps customers leverage the multiple benefits of having an advanced meter, including identifying ways to increase water use efficiency and save money in the process.

Customers can also sign up for water lea and water use alerts through A uaHaw .

At the same time, our team is wor ing behind the scenes to optimi e our water systems. We’ve secured grants to help us identify any potential inefficiencies and associated infrastructure upgrades that can increase our efficiency and reduce system loss.

At VMWD, we often hear from fol s who are interested in ta ing their water-use efficiency practices to the next level, but don’t now exactly where to start.

If that sounds li e you or someone you now, there are five ways you can ma e a measurable difference.

Fix lea s. Common lea sources include running toilets, dripping faucets, home water treatment units and sprin ler systems.

Install beautiful, water- wise landscaping. Swap turf grass for California-friendly plants to cut

Invest in a drip irrigation system to save water and prevent the runoff of toxic contaminants into our water supply.

Don’t overwater plants. se a rain shut-off device, soil moisture sensor or humidity sensor to control irrigation.

Upgrade to efficient, WaterSense appliances.

We also offer a variety of wor shops, which cover irrigation, landscaping and California

Vaccine emphasis shows Facebook’s divisiveness Joe Naiman WRITER

Faceboo ’s emphasis on the coronavirus vaccine shows the social media platform’s divisiveness.

Faceboo emphasi es certain types of posts, and the focus on who received a vaccine is often placed at the top of a user’s feed.

I don’t choose my friends based on who is or isn’t having the vaccine, but I do have various responses.

My brother put an empty pac age in the trash can and I read “ccine.” At first, I thought it was a vaccine, but then I reali ed it said “fettuccine.” Many of the original Faceboo announcements of posters receiving the coronavirus vaccine were met by my note about

mista ing the fettucine pac age for a vaccine and concluding with “ instead of getting two doses of the vaccine I’m going to get two servings of fettuccine.”

Sometimes my comment addresses the shots I did put into my body. One response is that I had two margarita shots instead of two tequi la shots, adding when I consumed the margaritas. The day after the bartender gave me a S rewball shot that’s peanut butter whis ey I noted that I got a S rewball shot from the bartender.

After one party in which my drin s included two teq uila shots, I noted that I had two teq uila shots. I sometimes noted that in April I had all three shots whis ey, te uila and vod a.

If I can get away with it or if my more benign comments don’t receive the approval of those who want me to join them in getting the vaccine, I will mention that I’m willing to test whether the vaccine results in fertility problems or birth defects.

The vaccine may or may not cause infertility. Spaying or neutering one’s dog or cat definitely causes infertility, but nobody posts when their animal is fixed.

I have rancher friends, and they don’t post when they have cattle castrated. one of my rancher friends post when their cattle are inoculated, and if one of my friends who owns a dog or cat posts when their pet receives a shot from the veterinarian, it’s

Public safety power shut-offs

Assemblymember Marie Waldron SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

Devastation from California’s wildfires has been at record levels in recent years. ast year our wildfire season resulted in over million acres burned in 9,6 fires 31 people died. The economic costs to homeowners, utilities, ratepayers, insurers and local governments has been catastrophic.

While electric utility infrastructure accounted for less than 10% of wildfires historically, downed power lines have been responsible for about half of California’s most destructive fires. As a result, in 2 12 the California Public tilities Commission granted electric utilities authority to shut off power during excessive wind or heat events to protect public safety. As we all now, these public safety power shut-offs have been increasingly common during extreme Santa Ana winds. Statewide, between 2 13 and the end of 2 19, California averaged , wildfires per year, and the state’s three largest energy companies, including Southern California dison and SDG , conducted 33 public safety power shut-offs “ de- energizations.”

In the past, preemptive power shut- offs were often confined largely to rural areas. Today however, housing has spread into many rural areas, with more than a third of our housing now located in the “ wildland- urban interface,” meaning power shut-offs are now impacting more Californians.

Obviously, wildfires result in lost lives, economic devastation and massive property loss. ut power shut-offs are also extremely disruptive, costly, and in many cases can be dangerous for those relying on electric power for their health and safety. ut when planned outages occur, here are some lin s that will help For SDG customers, sign up for public safety power shut-offs notifications and more information at https: / / www.sdge.com/ publicsafety-power-shutoff. For SC customers, visit https: / / www.sce. com wildfire psps.

Fighting wildfires remains a top personal priority. This session my Caucus and I will continue to do all we can to reduce this severe threat to life and property.

usually either to address their pet’s disli e or showing their own scars from when the cat objected with its claws to the trip to the vet.

One of the reasons I’m reluctant to have the vaccine is that I had a previous adverse reaction to an antibiotic. When I was in ninth grade, I tested positive for tuberculosis exposure and was placed on tetracycline. In 1 th grade, I was diagnosed with an abnormal liver function, and the tetracycline might have been a cause, especially since I wasn’t yet drin ing alcohol.

The abnormal liver function gave me a lifetime dis ualification from blood donations. In the 199 s, I was with the chain of wee ly newspapers in San Diego’s eastern suburbs. That was when news releases were sent by .S. mail and photographs were printed and ta en with film cameras. The blood ban sent the chain photos and captions of local blood donors

who had reached a threshold.

I don’t now if the blood ban still recognizes local donors and sends information to newspapers, but what I do now is that I rarely see a Faceboo post about blood donations. Faceboo does not prompt users to post about blood donations, and any blood donor posts may or may not be placed at the top of another user’s feed but li ely will not have the Faceboo emphasis of vaccine shots.

Concerns about reactions to the coronavirus vaccine have made that more of a divisive issue than blood donations, spaying or neutering pets or other medical actions. Faceboo ’s emphasis on vaccines focuses on what divides us rather than what unites us. Any true unity in America or elsewhere will need to overcome Faceboo ’s preference to eep us divided.

Caitlyn Jenner adds celebrity to run for California governor Michael R. Blood THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Caitlyn enner begins her campaign for California governor with a pri ed commodity for a candidate celebrity. ut while her name is widely recogni ed, what she would do in the ob remains a mystery. early two decades ago, Hollywood fame helped elevate another epublican, Arnold Schwar enegger, to the governor’s chair. ut he had already made a name in state politics, wor ing to enact hundreds of millions of dollars in funding for school programs. He once headed a fitness council for former President George H.W. Bush and was married to Maria Shriver from the ennedy political dynasty. enner lac s the roots Schwarzenegger had in politics, and his international celebrity far eclipsed her own. ut her 3.5 million Twitter followers gives her a foothold to reach out directly to voters through social media, similar to the way Schwarzenegger could attract TV cameras from around the globe. enner an Olympic hero, reality TV personality and transgender rights activist announced “I’m in” on Twitter Friday, April 23, joining a growing list of candidates see ing to oust Democratic Gov. Gavin ewsom from office. ewsom, a first-term Democrat, is facing a li ely recall election this year, though officials still are reviewing petition signatures reuired to ualify the proposal for the ballot. County election officials are re uired to submit their final signature tallies to the state no later than Thursday, April 29.

J enner, who came out as a transgender woman in 201 5 , released a statement that s etched only a vague outline of what her agenda might loo li e cutting taxes, repairing the economy and fighting special interests and California’s Democratic-dominated politics.

Still, with her name recognition and ability to attract publicity, she could overshadow other epublican contenders, including former San Diego Mayor evin Faulconer, former .S. ep. Doug Ose and businessman ohn Cox, who lost to N ewsom in a landslide in the 2 1 governor’s race.

“The politics of celebrity are going to enter in this in a big way, ust li e they did in 2 3” when Schwar enegger was elected, David McCuan, chair of the political science department at California State niversity Sonoma, said.

He said that J enner’s website has lin s to purchase T-shirts, caps and coffee mugs, but no details on her policy positions.

“She’s remained silent on many of these issues, and she doesn’t have a record of political participation,” he said. Schwarzenegger “was political royalty. And he had a presence that was as large as the galaxy. And as a result, he upset the whole race” in 2 3.

The emerging contest had failed to attract a nationally recognized contender before the entrance of the 71-year-old enner, who won the decathlon in the 1976 Summer Olympics and is widely nown from the popular reality shows “ Keeping Up with the Kardashians” and the spin-off, “I Am Cait.”

However, she is untested as a candidate and little is nown about her positions on critical issues facing the state, from the coronavirus pandemic to managing the economy. She has ties to former President Donald Trump, as well as his former political operatives who are helping her organize her campaign.

J enner credits herself with advancing the movement for e uality. ut the G T advocacy group uality California said it would oppose her candidacy, citing her ties to Trump and Republicans who have sought to

undercut transgender rights around the nation.

She also has faced speculation that she’s entering politics to steer attention to her entertainment career. And California has a much stronger Democratic tilt than it did in Schwarzenegger’s run in 2 3 registered Democratic voters outnumber Republicans in the state by nearly two to one.

Hours after J enner announced she would run, Faulconer too a lightly veiled swipe at her lac of experience in government.

Spea ing with reporters in Huntington Beach, he described himself as “somebody who has won elections and nows how to get results.”

Ose said he loo ed forward to debating their “ ideas, positions and solutions.”

N ewsom declined to comment directly on enner’s candidacy during an event mar ing the reopening of a section of Highway 1 in ig Sur. Instead, he pivoted to a rousing defense of his administration, highlighting the state’s progress on constructing roads and bridges, vaccinating Californians and building a budget surplus.

In a statement, J enner called herself an outsider and the only candidate “ who can put an end to Gavin ewsom’s disastrous time as governor.”

It was notable that her announcement did not include a video, which is commonplace in political campaign ic offs. Her campaign did not respond to a reuest for an on-camera interview.

If the recall ualifies as expected for the ballot this year, voters would be as ed two uestions.

First, whether ewsom should be removed from office and second who should replace him.

If a ma ority votes “no” to recalling ewsom, he stays in office and the votes for the replacements are irrelevant. ut if a ma ority

elebrity aitlyn enner announces her campaign as the first transgender woman to run for governor in California.

Valley News/AP photo

votes to remove him, then whoever among the candidates gets the most votes becomes California governor. With do ens of names expected on the ballot, a winner would li ely get less than 5 of the votes.

The recall effort largely has been fueled by criticism of ewsom’s handling of the pandemic, which shuttered schools and closed thousands of businesses.

He has also been hit by the fallout from a multibillion- dollar fraud scandal at the state unemployment agency while weathering a public shaming for dining out with friends and lobbyists at an exclusive San Francisco ay Area restaurant last fall, while telling state residents to stay home for safety. Photos showed ewsom without a mas .

However, recent polling has suggested N ewsom would hold his seat, and the sour public mood could shift as coronavirus restrictions recede. California also is li ely to be the recipient of billions of dollars of federal recovery funds, which N ewsom will dis-

pense and could use to his political advantage.

J enner made headlines in recent years with her ties to Trump, who lost to oe iden in the state by over 5 million votes.

J enner supported Trump in 201 6 but later criticized his administration’s reversal of a directive on transgender access to public school bathrooms. She also split with Trump after he said transgender people would not be allowed to serve in the .S. military.

The team advising enner has included Trump’s former campaign manager, Brad Parscale, and epublican fundraiser Caroline Wren, who also wor ed for Trump’s campaign.

J enner also could face q uestions about a 2015 fatal crash in which she rear- ended two cars.

Vaccines are currently being administered under emergencyuse authori ations from the FDA as they are not fully approved by the FDA and have not undergone long-term safety trials.

The vaccines manufactured by Pfi er and Moderna are both in Phase 3 fficacy Trials and could apply to the FDA for full approval at any time.

California public university officials said the planned requi rement will be discussed with faculty and student representatives, along with labor groups.

However, they opted to announce the planned req uirement Thursday, April 22, so all members of the campus community can start arranging to get vaccinated before the fall term begins. loy Orti Oa ley, chancellor of California Community Colleges, said decisions about req uiring vaccinations at their campuses will be left to individual community college districts.

Of the 1 7 ,425 tests reported Thursday, 2 returned positive.

The 1 -day rolling average of positive tests is 1.7 .

Hospitalizations related to coronavirus decreased by one to 1 6, compared to Wednesday. There were 57 COVID-19 patients in intensive care unit beds as of Thursday’s report, an increase of one from the previous day. There are 5 available IC beds in the county.

More than 2.6 million COVID-19 vaccine doses have been delivered to San Diego County, and 1,332,12 county residents have received at least one dose.

The state’s goal is to vaccinate 7 5 % of people 1 6 and older to achieve so-called herd immunity – equa ting to around 2.02 million

On Thursday, the county reported that more than 63, 5 people in San Diego County 2. of that goal are fully vaccinated.

The numbers include both county residents and those who only wor in the county.

San Diego County received nearly 1 , more coronavirus vaccines this wee than it did the wee before, public health officials said.

The 29 , vaccine doses the county received this wee are the most the county has received in a single wee , with 2,5 3,595 total vaccines received since they were cleared for emergency use by the FDA in December.

San Diego County oard of Supervisors Chair athan Fletcher said he was not aware of how many doses of the Pfi er and Moderna vaccines San Diego County is scheduled to receive next wee .

Fletcher said the county is continuing to store 1 1 ,000 J ohnson ohnson doses while federal health officials investigate reports of a handful of women across the country developing potentially dangerous blood clots within two wee s of receiving the one-dose vaccine, resulting in one death. se of the vaccine has been paused since April 13.

A total of 2 3 fully vaccinated San Diego County residents have tested positive for the SA S CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19, according to Dr. ric McDonald, medical director of the county Health and Human Services Agency’s pidemiology and Immuni ation Services ranch. It represents a rate of .027% of all fully vaccinated county residents – a little more than three times higher than the federally reported rate of .008% .

Of those, McDonald said 57 had no symptoms and were tested for another reason. N one of the fully vaccinated people have been hospitalized or died.

SpaceX successfully launches 4 astronauts toward International Space Station City News Service SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

Hawthorne- based SpaceX successfully launched another group of astronauts into orbit early Friday, April 23, for an eventual rendezvous with the International Space Station becoming the first launch involving a previously used spacecraft and rocket.

The launch of the SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft Endeavour had been scheduled for about 3: 1 5 a.m.

California time Thursday from Cape Canaveral in Florida. But bad weather in the launch zone pushed the mission until 2: 49 a.m.

California time Friday.

“3 2 1... and liftoff ndeavour launches once again,” N ASA tweeted just after 2: 49 a.m. PT, as the rescheduled launch came off on time and without any problems. “ Four astronauts from three countries on Crew- 2, now making their way to the one and only @ Space_S tation.”

The launch marked the second time the Endeavour has carried astronauts on a journey toward the International Space Station.

The craft was used last summer in the historic flight of two astronauts that mar ed the first manned mission to launch from U.S. soil since the space shuttle program was retired.

In N ovember, SpaceX sent an-

other four astronauts to the space station in a separate Dragon spacecraft, dubbed Resilience. That crew is still aboard the international orbiting outpost, scheduled to return to Earth next week. The first stage of the Falcon 9 roc et that propelled that crew on its mission was used again in Friday’s launch.

Last summer’s launch of two astronauts was technically considered a demonstration mission to test the capabilities of the Dragon spacecraft. So N ovember’s launch of four astronauts was dubbed the Crew- 1 mission, or Dragon’s first fully operational flight. Friday’s launch, therefore, is dubbed Crew- 2.

Flying on the mission launched Friday are N ASA astronauts Shane Kimbrough and Megan McArthur, J apanese Aerospace Exploration Agency astronaut Akihiko Hoshide and European Space Agency astronaut Thomas Pesque t.

McArthur, who grew up in N orthern California, is a University of California Los Angeles graduate in aerospace engineering, and she earned a doctorate in oceanography at UC San Diego, where she was a researcher at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography.

The crew is scheduled to arrive at the space station at 2: 09 a.m.

Continental Europe could allow US tourists back this summer Samuel Petrequin THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

American tourists could soon be visiting continental Europe again, more than a year after the European Union restricted travel to the 27 - nation bloc to a bare minimum to contain the coronavirus. officials said Monday, April 26, they are completing plans to allow Americans back this summer, depending on the course of the outbreak on both sides of the Atlantic.

The EU Commission, the EU’s executive arm, will make a proposal soon to its member states but didn’t say when exactly leisure travel could resume or whether a reciprocal approach will apply to Europeans wanting to visit the U.S., which has closed its doors to tourists from the continent.

Also, it was not immediately clear whether all U.S. tourists would have to produce proof of vaccination for entry, or whether a negative test for the coronavirus or proof of recent recovery from COV ID- 1 9 would be acceptable instead. “ These are among the q uestions we’ll still need to figure out,” uropean Commission representative Adalbert J ahnz said.

J ahnz said the EU’s executive body is hoping to restore transAtlantic leisure travel “ as soon as it is safe to do so.”

On Sunday, The N ew Y ork Times q uoted Commission President Ursula von der Leyen as saying that fully vaccinated Americans will be able to visit EU countries this summer since all coronavirus vaccines used in the U.S. have also been approved by the EU’s regulator, the European Medicines Agency. “ This will enable free movement and the travel to the European Union,” she said. “ Because one thing is clear: All 27 member states will accept, unconditionally, all those who are vaccinated with vaccines that are approved by EMA.” With more than 1 5 million Americans a year visiting Europe before the crisis, the prospect of U.S. travelers once more flocking to such attractions as the iffel Tower, the canals of V enice or Germany’s Brandenburg Gate is welcome news for the continent’s hard- hit tourism industry.

But EU member states will have the final say on whether to adopt the guidelines.

The International Air Transport Association, a trade group that represents 29 0 airlines in 1 20 countries, applauded the news. “ This is a step in the right direction,” IATA General Director Willie Walsh said in a statement. “ It gives hope to people for so many reasons – to travel, to reunite with loved ones, to develop business opportunities or get back to work.”

The group said people who test negative for COV ID- 1 9 , not just those who get vaccinated, should be allowed to travel freely. IATA also said it is critical to develop globally

When we see that certain neighborhoods or communities haven’t had access to capital or home ownership, there are programs created for them, such as first-time homebuyer programs. Then there are public/ private partnerships like opportunity zones to encourage businesses to invest in communities and bring new life and jobs to neighborhoods.

recognized standards for vaccine certification. IATA is among groups testing a vaccine passport system.

J ahnz said the EU has been following closely the vaccination drive in the U.S, where more than 9 4 million people 1 8 or older, or about 36.5 % of the adult population, have been fully vaccinated.

The slow rollout of vaccines in the EU has left the bloc lagging well behind the U.S. But V on der Leyen said Monday that the region, home to around 45 0 million people, has already passed 1 23 million vaccinations and is on track to have vaccinated 7 0% of all adults by J uly.

The is putting the finishing touches to a system of certificates that would allow EU residents to travel freely across the region by the summer as long as they have been vaccinated, tested negative or recovered from the disease.

Under the plan discussed with their .S. counterparts, certificates issued in the United States could be integrated into the program.

As for Britain, no longer an EU member, Americans visiting the United Kingdom have to isolate for 1 0 days and take coronavirus tests before and after travel.

Travel to the EU is extremely limited, confined mostly to a few countries with low infection rates, such as Australia and N ew Z ealand.

But Greece, which is heavily reliant on tourism, has already lifted q uarantine restrictions for the U.S., Britain, the United Arab Emirates, Serbia, Israel and non- EU members Iceland, Liechtenstein, N orway and Switzerland that are part of a European travel pact. “ Uniliteral approaches, from our perspective should be avoided,” J ahnz said. “ The objective is to continue to have a coordinated approach on the European level.”

Meanwhile, the EU said Monday it has launched legal action against AstraZ eneca, accusing it of failing to meet its vaccine delivery commitments under its contract with the bloc. The slow pace of the EU vaccination campaign has been blamed in part on the delays.

The British- Swedish drugmaker had hoped to deliver 8 0 million doses in the first uarter of 2 21, but only 30 million were sent. According to the EU, the company is set to provide 7 0 million in the second q uarter, rather than the 1 8 0 million it had promised.

AstraZ eneca said in a statement that it will “ strongly defend” itself in court.

Learn from Congregation B’nai Chaim: Counting each and every day temple in erusalem to give sacrifices.

Su ot mar ed the end of the harvest. Passover mar ed the beginning of the planting season, and Shavuot was the harvesting of the first crops. The 9-day period from the second day of Passover to Shavuot is called the omer.

During this time, it is traditional to count and appreciate each day that mar s the beginning of the barley planting to its harvest. The count ends on Shavuot, the time when ews traditionally brought their first sheaves to the temple.

This festival, along with the other two pilgrimage festivals, were used as a collective way of than ing God for the harvest.

We are currently in the midst of counting the omer. According to the Torah in eviticus 23 15-16, “ ou shall count from the eve of the second day of Passover, when an omer of grain is to be brought as an offering, seven complete wee s.

The day after the seventh wee of your counting will ma e 5 days,

Rabbi Emily JK Holtzman SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

This wee , Parsha mor details many of the celebrations throughout the ewish year, such as Su ot, which is the Festival of ooths Passover and Shavuot, which is the Festival of Wee s.

Traditionally, during these three times a year, the ewish people made a special pilgrimage to the

and you shall present a new meal offering to God. The word “omer” means “ measurement,” referring to the measurement of one sheaf of barley. ow that few people are barley farmers and the temple no longer stands, practices li e counting the omer must ta e on new meaning in the modern world. There is an anticipation of the arrival of Shavuot as it is not only the first harvest of the year, but also the anniversary of the day when ews accepted the teachings of Torah at Mount Sinai. It is a holiday that ews anticipate oyfully, and thus there is ac nowledgement each and every day counting toward this revelation. The newly freed Israelites were wandering through the desert with only Moses as their guide, there was not yet an understanding of the laws God wants the J ews to follow. It was a somewhat liminal space in the desert.

This period of counting is similar to the Hebrew month of Elul, the preparatory month before the

High Holidays of osh Hashanah and Y om Kippur. Kabbalah or J ewish mysticism uses the omer as a self-reflection tool. Counting the omer gives us a chance to reflect each and every day on one of the divine aspects. The ewish people moved from the slave mentality of gypt to a sense of freedom and gratitude to God. The Kabbalists have a mystical map of the 1 divine elements, called the sefirot, that can also be matched up to different parts of the human body.

Three of these aspects are associated with higher heavenly realms, while the other seven can be practiced and attained by humans.

These are the foundation for the different aspects that ews focus on each day of the omer. ach wee has a spiritual theme, and each day delves into an aspect of that theme. ast wee was the element of hod, translated as splendor, ma esty or humility.

Rabbi Simon J acobson said of hod “Humility is modesty it is ac nowledgement. It is saying

than you’ to God. It is clearly recogni ing your ualities and strengths and ac nowledging that they are not your own they were given to you by God for a higher purpose than ust satisfying your own needs. Humility is modesty it is recogni ing how small you are which allows you to reali e how large you can become.”

What in your life needs a bit of recognition this wee How are you ac nowledging the gifts that God has granted you in your daily life se this wee to thin about the need for both splendor and humility in your life. Allow yourself to expand your ideas of what can be and what you can be. Shabbat Shalom and have a peaceful wee .

have to first get this one right. That’s why God put it first.

Once esus was as ed which one of God’s commands was the greatest.

He responded by saying, “ ove the ord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment,” in Matthew 22 37-3 .

There is nothing more important in your life than loving God. It is God’s first commandment to us. He needs to be the one and only God in our life.

Which leads us to the second command in the Big 1 0.

Y ou must not make yourself an idol. et’s be clear, God hates idolatry in any and every form. When God wrote the 1 0 commandments to his people, they were surrounded by nations who worshiped man- made idols, carved by their own hands.

Their worship of these idols often consisted of rampant prostitution, sex worship and child sacrifices.

Those were the extremes and God was not a fan.

Around the world people still worship man-made idols in various forms and in various ways.

But there is another form of idol worship that God detests just as much. And it’s anything in your life

that steals away the worship that belongs to God. It’s putting your trust and dependance on something else besides God. It could be money, success, hobbies, love, fame, loo s, social media, politics I thin you get the drift.

The idol in your life is whatever you’ve set up to be more important than the God who created you.

These first two commandments really go hand in hand.

So, here’s my uestion. Who is really o. 1 in your life Is it God If not, I thin it’s time for a change.

God wrote you a personal note telling you how to relate to him. Ta e it seriously. Ma e him first.

Think about it: What idol have you set up in your life to ta e God’s place Is it time for a life change Verse of the Day: “’ ove the ord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment,” in Matthew 22 37-3 .

chec ing “yes” or “no.” They invited you to parties, and, for a very special few, they even got you out of P. . when you wrote a fa e note from your mother not me.

The bottom line is those notes mattered and had the power to change the course of your wee , day and life.

What you might not now is that God is in to writing notes. Once, “when the ord finished spea ing with Moses on Mount Sinai, he gave him the two stone tablets inscribed with the terms of the covenant, written by the finger of God,” in xodus 31 1 . ow if there was ever a note that mattered, it’s the one written by the very finger of God. It holds a lot of weight, because in it God sets his ground rules for serving him and ultimately points us to esus.

What’s in this note written by the finger of God othing less than the ig 1 . Otherwise nown as the 1 Commandments.

Today we’re going to loo at the first two of the 1 Commandments and why the ig 1 still matter.

J oe and Bernadette Mullenix, along with drummer Randy Green, belted out crowd- pleasing cover tunes that had the outdoor diners dancing.

among other favorites Saturday night.

The Mullenixes are songwriters who perform “ foot- stompin’” popular country, country rock and classic rock songs with a few of their original tunes worked in.

Featuring Bernadette Mullenix’s strong vocals and harmonies, J oe Mullenix played a nine- string guitar, accompanied by Green, a percussionist.

The band interacted with the audience, encouraging participation with humor and songs made up on the spot for particular moments.

Anza Community Hall hosts first open board meeting in 3 months Diane Sieker STAFF WRITER

The Anza Community Building Inc. board of directors held their first open meeting in more than three months Thursday, April 22, at the Community Hall.

Directors Birdie Kopp, N oel Donahue and Barbara Ann Keller gave reports on the latest Community Hall activities. “ This was the first meeting called by the board of directors for the Anza Community Building Inc. in three months because the Hall has still had minimum use due to the governor’s restrictions against people gathering in large groups,” Donahue said.

There was a discussion regarding the 2021 Anza Days celebration, and the board voted to start planning for events at the Community Hall and in Minor Park, in coordination with the Anza Civic Improvement League, with the expectation that Anza Days will occur. “ We have tentatively planned to continue the Friday night ic off dinner,” Donahue said. “ Contact will be made with the Thimble Club to confirm that they will be holding their pancake breakfast at the Hall.”

Status reports were given for the Dollar General Store, the septic installation, the well upgrades and the Americans with Disabilities Act access projects.

The contractor who did the percolation tests for both the Dollar General and the new septic location behind the Community Hall reported finding good soil for percolation down to 15 feet or more at both locations.

When the septic installation contractor attempted to dig at both locations, however, he hit bedrock only a few feet from the surface.

The conflict between what the tests reported and what was found in the field have been reported bac to the developer and their engineers.

The contractor is currently stalled awaiting a resolution on the matter.

The well improvements at the Community Hall are waiting for the contractor to build the new well house. The planning and logistics for that project continue.

An architect has been hired, and plans are currently being drawn for the Americans with Disabilities Act access upgrades to the Community Hall. “ That work can’t be performed until the new septic is installed, the holding tank for the kitchen drain is removed and the plumbing changes associated with the well upgrades are completed, but we are moving forward with the design and bidding process so we can start the work as soon as those items are completed,” Donahue said.

N o other business was conducted at the meeting.

How stress might be destroying your health and well-being SARATOGA – Stress. Everyone experiences it, and maybe they are feeling it right at this very moment.

Without surprise, it seems as if people’s collective stress levels have seemed to hit an all- time high throughout the past year. While stress seems like an inevitable, natural response in their everyday lives at this point, it is important for people to know that it is actually wreaking havoc on their overall health and wellness.

As April was Stress Awareness Month, Dr. V ikki Petersen, a certified clinical nutritionist, chiropractor and certified functional medicine practitioner, highlighted the negative effects that stress can have on their overall health and well- being. “ The word ‘ stress’ is discussed often: ‘ I had a stressful day,’ or ‘ ‘ I’m under stress,’ etc. Stress is

uniq ue to each individual. What evokes stress in one person could have no impact on their close friend or partner. What’s vital to know about stress is that it impacts pretty much every organ and system in your body. From longevity to weight, from emotional stability to energy levels and from digestion to detoxification, all aspects of your physical and mental wellbeing are affected by your stress levels,” Petersen said.

She shared her top 5 facts to now about stress and its effect on health.

Stress causes a major imbalance in the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system.

People may have heard about their “ fight or flight” nervous system – they are the same. While being in fight or flight is great for adrenaline and alertness, if it is ac-

tivated chronically thanks to stress, people miss out on the ability to rest, sleep well, digest and repair their body, which is the job of the parasympathetic nervous system.

Stress prevents production of sex hormones.

N ot feeling in the mood for love People’s hormones are li ely to blame thanks to stress. Stress is a reaction to imminent danger that increases adrenaline and heart rate to help them “ escape” the dangerous situation. When stress is internal and there is no imminent danger, however, the effects on their hormonal and emotional balance are profound. The body will literally shunt away from making sex hormones that balance mood and help regulate stress itself.

Stress inhibits melatonin production.

When a person is under stress,

they likely feel more fatigued and need a good night’s sleep. Stress hormones inhibit the body’s ability to produce melatonin – the sleep hormone – and get the good night’s sleep they need.

Under stress, the body eats up more B vitamins and nutrients.

Stress begets more stress. When the body depletes the nutrients it needs, this deficit causes the body to crave a “ uic fix,” and people find themselves reaching for sugar, refined carbohydrates and caffeine, all “ empty” calories that perpetuate those cravings, aggravate stress even more and cause weight gain.

Stress lowers immune response.

Have your ever been under a lot of stress right before you got sic It is not a coincidence, but rather a weakening of immune defenses that allow an opportunistic bacteria or virus to take hold of the

body. Stress makes it harder for the body to ward off infection, ma ing people more prone to illness in general.

Is buying a second home on your 2021 to-do list? What to consider There are better ways of growing your money.”

Rush said a few things to know about investing in a second home include: Real estate doesn’t automatically mean easy money. People mistakenly believe real estate provides a guaranteed return, but that’s not always true. Rush recalled one client who, over Rush’s vehement objections, withdrew all of his retirement money to build an expensive second home. The client was certain the house would pay off, but he eventually was forced to sell it for half his investment.

Consider the overall impact on your life. Most people don’t have endless streams of money, even if they have done well for themselves financially. So, a splurge in one area often re uires a sacrifice in another. “ If you want the second home, then perhaps an Alaskan cruise won’t be in the budget,” Rush said. “ It comes down to what your priorities are.”

Upkeep can become overwhelming. People tend to overlook the ancillary costs that make owning a second home expensive, Rush

GREEN SBORO, N .C. – Owning a second home can provide retirees – or younger families – a mountain retreat or a house at the beach for those family vacations or qui ck weekend getaways.

But if buying a second home is in the plans for 2021, be sure to consider all the upsides and downsides before committing, Patrick Rush, CEO of Triad Financial Advisors and the ForbesBooks author of “ Gain Big and Give Back: Financial Planning with Intention,” said. “ Many retirees end up regretting it,” Rush said. “ They feel they are forced to go to that second home every weekend just because they

spent so much on it. A vacation property or second home can certainly provide a lot of joy, but it rarely wor s out financially.”

That doesn’t stop people from buying them, though.

The N ational Association of Home Builders estimated that Americans own about 7. million second homes, which is about 5.6% of the total housing stock. “ People tend to purchase a second home either as a rental property or a vacation home, which they might also rent for part of the year,” Rush said. “ But unless you’re in a hot real estate market, the return on investment usually isn’t worth the hassle.

She wanted to continue that tradition for her children, her sister and her sister’s children. “ It was a reminder that it’s not always about the numbers,” Rush said. “ Y ou have to weigh the return on investment against the emotional benefit. Financially, it wasn’t the best choice, but to her, it meant so much more. It was about keeping her parents’ memories alive. Some things truly matter more than money.”

Idyllwild grinding facility to operate 3 days per week IDY LLWILD – As winter weather gives way to warmer temperatures, the summer schedule will soon be in effect for the Idyllwild grinding facility. ffective Saturday, May 1, the facility will resume Monday operations.

The additional day of operations mean the facility will be open Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and closed from noon to 1 p.m. for lunch from May 1 through N ov. 30.

The facility is located at the 5 ,000- foot marker, 1 mile south

Take those into consideration as you make your decision. “ Property taxes, homeowners association dues, insurance, and maintenance start to add up,” he said. “ Renting the house out when you aren’t using it does provide an income stream, but managing the property and dealing with tenants is a hassle. Y ou can hire a property manager, but that has its own disadvantages.”

Renting can work just as well. While it might feel exhilarating to own a mountain home in orth Carolina or a Pacific Ocean beach house, Rush said another option is simply to rent a place for a week or a weekend whenever you’re in need of a getaway.

N one of this means a second home is always a mistake, Rush said.

The American Revolution was successful because citizens had guns

Harold W. Pease, Ph.D. SPECIAL TO ANZA VALLEY OUTLOOK

Many may not remember their basic U.S. history courses as to why the Second Amendment exists in the first place. Certainly, when enacted, there was no thought of restricting type of firearm, or where or who could carry. So its placement as the second most valued freedom in the Bill of Rights had nothing to do with personal safety or hunting, these were already assumed. It was specifically placed right after the First Amendment freedoms of religion, speech, press and assembly to make certain that these freedoms were never taken away. The Constitution was founded with a healthy fear of government. Historically, it was always a government that took away liberty.

One must remember that early patriots did not ask the existing British government if they could

revolt. They argued in The Declaration of Independence that they were “ endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” coming from a much higher source than mere man and that “ whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government.” God was referenced five times in this document, and thus, they believed he sanctioned their rebellion. They were expected to suffer evils while sufferable, “but when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariable the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government and to provide new guards for their future security.”

The right of revolution requi res the means of revolution, and it is the reason the Second Amendment exists. N ormally, the ballot box is the only self- correction needed, but the Founding Fathers had no intention of forfeiting the right to revolution they exercised giving us liberty in the first place. or did they assume that future generations would never need the more serious self- correction they used.

So passionate were they over this issue that they double protected it, first by ma ing it a constitutional amendment. N o presidential degree or congressional statute can alter an amendment – only another amendment submitted

through the states as per Amendment V . This process req uires a vote of three- fourths of the states in support. Second, it is the only amendment, that itself, specifically forbids change: “ The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.” N o piece of law is more secure. As far as we can ascertain, America’s Constitution is the only Constitution in world history that specifically prohibits its government from removing the right of the people to keep and bear arms and thus the means to resist its government tyranny – as was exercised against the British.

An armed populace twice proved its value to liberty in the Revolutionary War. First, many do not remember why the battles of Lexington and Concord were so important. The Americans learned that the British planned to go door to door to confiscate their firearms so they gathered and hid them in these two villages. N ow the British night gun raid, and Paul Revere’s desperate midnight ride warning the Americans en route, so they could retrieve their guns to use against the British, makes sense.

Second, the Battle of Saratoga, which prevented the conque st of the northeast by General J ohnny Burgoyne, was stopped, not by the military, but by angry farmers with their own military styled “ assault” rifles. This American victory encouraged other countries, notably France, to enter the war on our side. We would not have won the war without an armed citizenry.

The Founders’ attitude regard-

ing guns – even military issue – w as clear.

Thomas efferson said, “ o free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms.”

And George Washington said, “ A free people ought not only to be armed,” but also, “ they should promote such manufactories as tend to remind them independent of others for essential, particularly military, supplies,” according to “ Gun Control,” Freemen Report, May 31, 1975.

But many people fear the government today. We fear when tyrannical governors condemned to death thousands of older adults by sending COV ID- 1 9 infected patients into nursing homes, or when the Bill of Rights was openly defied and First Amendment protection rights denied their people. We fear when statues of our Founding Fathers and great former leaders are torn down and those doing it are leaving the inner cities aflame, when a majority believe election integrity no longer exists, when a president rules almost entirely by executive decrees, when one party rule is largely established, when our borders previously secured are no more and when one side of the political spectrum is largely censored or canceled.

We fear Congress when it seeks to pass an Eq uality Act that ensures ineq uality, or a Bill For the People Act cements permanent fraud in elections favoring one party in particular or when they push to pack the Supreme Court or make the District of Columbia

a state – all to install one political party rule in America. This fear is demonstrated when people are fleeing for safety from tyrannical states to freer states like Idaho, Florida, Texas and Utah. How can anyone in their right mind agree to give up their right to resist the government should it become tyrannical In some places, it already has.

The Second Amendment is the Constitution’s final chec on tyranny. We have the same right of revolution the Founder’s used, fully expressed in The Declaration of Independence. Widespread gun ownership has never been a threat to truly free societies. An armed citizenry keeps the government on short notice of the governs’ ability to resist should God- given inalienable rights be taken from them.

A popular slogan runs: “ I love my country but I fear my government.” Given the fear and unconstitutional antics noted above, perhaps we should hang on to the Second Amendment as designed as our final option against tyranny.

An option we hope never to have to use again.
