St. Patrick’s Day Parade 2016 Winners Announced

Several hundred invited guests to the South White House lawn watched today as President Barack Obama and Michelle Obama wel-comed the Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his wife, Sophie Gré-goire Trudeau, in their first

official visit to the White House.

The arrival of Trudeau was heralded by a series of military ceremonies and the playing of the national anthems of both Canada and the United States. Af-ter a ceremonial review

of the troops, Obama and Trudeau greeted onlookers and spoke.

President Obama went first, “Bonjour. On behalf of the American people, on be-half of Michelle and myself, it is my honor to welcome to the United States Prime

Minister Justin Trudeau, Mrs. Grégoire-Trudeau, their beautiful children, and the quite good-looking Ca-nadian delegation.

“It’s long been said that you can choose your friends, but you cannot choose your neighbors.

Well, by virtue of geogra-phy, the United States and Canada are blessed to be neighbors. And by choice, we are steadfast allies and the closest of friends.”

President Obama then said he was proud to be the

Late last year JP Mor-gan Chase announced the launch of an African American initiative aimed at helping Black borrowers secure financing prompted by findings from a study highlighting the difficul-ties Black businesses face in obtaining capital.

The lending program funded, in part, by JPMor-gan Chase partnered with San Fernando Valley based and Latino led non-profit Valley Economic Develop-ment Center (VEDC) in an effort to boost economic op-portunity for Black-owned businesses in Chicago, Los Angeles, and New York. VEDC’s goal is to create a $30 million loan fund to which JPMorgan has com-mitted $8 million so far.

“In particular, technical

assistance and access to affordable capitol are real barriers for African-Amer-ican owned businesses,” said Diedra Porche Mar-ket Manager for Business Banking at JPMorgan Chase in Los Angeles.

Small businesses can receive loans between $35,000 and $250,000 in the program. In order to qualify

Voices and View PointsThe incredible Power of Faith

Dr. Lonnie G. McCowan, pastor of

Miracle Center of VenturaBy Pastor Lonnie G. McCowan

Faith is an incredible power because it is the word of God and the Bible says God’s word is an incorrupt-ible seed. This means once the seed is planted absolute-ly nothing on this earth can stop the seed from growing.

Seeds are miraculous be-cause if you plant a lemon seed with in that seed is the miracle power to produce lemons, if you plant orange seeds with in that seed contains the power to produce the oranges.

God’s word is the same way. You know as well as I do if seeds stay in the bag stored in your garage, it will not do you any good.

The way you plant God’s “word” (seed) is by speak-ing God’s word out of your mouth. Most people do not understand the power of faith and how it works. Here are six things that will help you understand faith.1. What is faith?

Faith is information (instructions) we get from God for us to act upon.

This information or (in-struction) shows us in advance what God will do about a giv-en issue before He does it.

This information (in-struction) also shows us in advance what our part is in this future activity of God.

In other words, God not only shows us in advance what He is about to do, He shows us in advance what He wants us to do with Him in this given future activity. This “information” is what the Bible says is faith.

noah as an example. God showed Noah in ad-vance everything about the flood and its consequences. He also showed him in ad-vance what his part was in this future undertaking. He showed him that He wanted him to build an ark and what kind of wood to use. He also showed him how high, how long and how wide to build it. He showed Noah in ad-vance about the animals, etc. This advance informa-tion (instructions) is what the Bible calls “faith.”2. When should you use faith?

The Bible (Romans 1:17) says we should live by the instructions given by God’s word.3. What should you expect when you use faith?

Many people are de-ceived because they think when they use faith the first response is victory. Nor-mally victory is the last re-

sponse. If you understand this, it will help you not to discouraged.4. Four things that you can expect when you live your life by faith:

1. Distractions-from peo-ple

2. Delays-from circum-stances

3. Disappointments-unfore-seen things and misfortunes

4. Deliverance-deliverance from the dilemma5. how do you use faith?

Faith comes by hearing (Romans 10:17) however faith is released by words.

You should first say God’s word out loud because God’s word is like a seed. You first said it out loud, replanting it in your heart. Your heart is the soil for the seed of God’s word. Next, you should say the word out loud. This is called confes-sion -- so that you can grow the seed that you planted in your heart. You must say the word out loud or confessing because you want to speak it into your circumstance. Je-sus often spoke words into the circumstances. For ex-ample, he spoke directly to the wind, he spoke directly to the fig tree. Don’t be afraid to speak to mountains that will not move.6. What is the difference in Faith and Believe?

“Faith” is information. Information is a noun that tells us what we have.

By Patricia Lynn Belkow-itz, C.Ht., EFT-CC

Life is a journey. An un-known adventure. An un-opened book. Many wise people over the years have told us that it’s all about the journey, not the destination. We all embark upon our life’s journey as helpless, in-nocent beings. Strangers in a strange land. Did you ever notice how a baby often has an expression of com-plete bewilderment? WTF moments? Each one of us is given instructions about what to do and what to ex-pect. To make things more interesting, we all get differ-ent instructions. We are told about our talents and our chances to succeed. Or not. And then the journey be-gins. One step at a time. One experience at a time. One moment at a time. And then the journey of life comes to

an end. The destination. Greg Anderson, author

of The 22 Non-Negotiable Laws of Wellness, says, “Fo-cus on the journey, not the destination. Joy is found not in finishing an activity but in doing it.” If we don’t enjoy the steps along the way to our goal, we will not reach it. No matter what, we all only do what we truly want to do. If we don’t want to do it, there are many reasons we have to justify our fail-ure to follow through. Pro-crastination. We make time for what matters. And we always make time for what feels good.

When you set a goal, you are setting a destina-tion. It’s important to con-sider each of the steps on the journey which are nec-essary to achieve the goal. Sometimes the journey can teach you a lot about your

destination. When you use your imagination to explore the future, you are able to see the steps which will trip you up…the ones you don’t want to do. Each step is a destination and a journey in itself. Consider a step which makes you feel fear-ful or incompetent or over-whelmed. Perhaps you’ve set a limit for yourself. Perhaps

They say spending 10,000 hours concentrating on a sub-ject makes you a master. By now, we should all be masters of our own energy. Ha! The secret word in the first sen-tence was “concentrating.”

Even so, we really should get a grip on the cycles of this ever-changing force we exchange with everyone and the universe at large. Anger, frustration, and even unbridled enthusiasm show us we are not yet effectively

managing our personal en-ergy. Wisdom from around the world tells us how to do it: Be Here Now.

This includes managing what you are taking in (pay-ing attention to) and putting out (saying, doing, feeling). But to do this well, takes practice and concentration.4 Simple Steps to manag-ing your energy.

1. Be aware of it (em-ploy your mind).

2. Claim it. Own the fact that you are responsible for the energy that is coming from you and that is resonat-ing with the environment/places. Even when the en-ergy you put out is not easy to control, or is driven or in-fluenced by something real and almost tangible, like pain, illness, or grief, you need to own your part in its appearance.

3. Control it. Once you claim ownership of your en-ergy, you can begin to con-

trol it. Decide what kind of influence you need to use:

• physical (sleep, take medication, go for a run)

• mental (clear thinking, better planning)

• emotional (relax, de-stress)

4. Practice it. Pay atten-tion to the energy you are giving out and what you are taking in and edit, edit, edit.

Staying in control comes down to one thing: Regu-larly reflecting on priorities to make sure you are giving the important things the con-sideration and attention they need. Just leaving the de facto values in place without managing them is like trust-ing your accountant without asking for references.

Values are continually shifting, so you need to check in with them from time to time to find what the rela-tive hierarchy is, move things around if necessary, and take TOMORROW, See page 12A

Remarks by the President Announcing Judge Merrick Garland as

His Nominee to the Supreme CourtIn the Rose GardenTHE PRESIDENT: Good

morning. Everybody, please have a seat.

Of the many powers and responsibilities that the Constitution vests in the presidency, few are more consequential than ap-pointing a Supreme Court justice -- particularly one to succeed Justice Scalia, one of the most influential jurists of our time.

The men and women who sit on the Supreme Court are the final arbiters of Ameri-can law. They safeguard our rights. They ensure that our system is one of laws and not men. They’re charged with the essential task of applying principles put to paper more than two centuries ago to some of the most challenging questions of our time.

So this is not a responsi-bility that I take lightly. It’s

a decision that requires me to set aside short-term ex-pediency and narrow poli-tics, so as to maintain faith with our founders and, perhaps more importantly, with future generations. That’s why, over the past several weeks, I’ve done my best to set up a rigor-ous and comprehensive process. I’ve sought the

advice of Republican and Democratic members of Congress. We’ve reached out to every member of the Senate Judiciary Commit-tee, to constitutional schol-ars, to advocacy groups, to bar associations, repre-senting an array of inter-ests and opinions from all across the spectrum.

Howard University Students Spend Spring Break Helping With Water Crisis

By Tatyana HopkinsHoward University News Service

FLINT, Mich. –Like thousands of other college students, Jaquan Black-well spent last spring break at the beach, his on the shores of Panama City Beach, Fla., indulging in “too much drinking” and partying with hundreds of other students into the ear-ly morning.

This year, Blackwell, a junior at Howard Univer-sity, was getting soaked Monday by a chilly Flint rain as he and a dozen other Howard students manned the corner of Fifth and Martin Luther King

avenues to help residents struggling with the city’s water crises by loading cases of donated water into the backs of cars.

And as he placed water into a crowded minivan, he was smiling.

“I’m not missing Flori-da,” the New Yorker said. “I can go anytime. That costs me money. I’m here for free, giving back.”

Blackwell is with How-ard University students and advisors in Flint as part of the school’s annual Alternative Spring Break (ASB) program, during which students forgo the fun and sun to help others.

This group chose to work in the city that has been in the news since Jan-uary because state and city officials exposed residents to dangerous water when they switched the city’s wa-ter source to save money.

The drinking water contamination began in April 2014 when the city changed its water source from the Detroit Water and Sewage Department to the Flint River, which city of-ficials failed to treat with corrosion inhibitors.

Lead from aging pipes leached into the water sup-ply, causing elevated lev-els of the metal in drinking water and creating serious public danger. The local United Way estimates that between 6,000 and 12,000 children have been ex-posed to water with high level of lead.

In January, the city de-clared a state of emergency and soon after President Barack Obama declared it as a federal emergency.

More than 450 other Howard students are do-ing similar service projects in 10 other sites, including

Detroit, Memphis, Chicago, Newark, N.J., Atlanta, Bal-timore, Washington, New Orleans, St. Louis and Haiti.

On their first work day here, the students visited high schools and later dis-tributed water at the down-town mosque, the Muslim House.

“This crisis has been go-ing on for two years and dis-tribution has only been go-ing on for two months,” said Blackwell said as another vehicle pulled up to receive a case or two of water. “Any change is a big change.”

Students rushed to pack the back seats and trunks of waiting vehicles with as much water as they re-quested, though they had limited supply.

Cars casually pulled up behind one another with their trunks opened, wait-ing their turn. The Howard students moved swiftly in

teams of two to load each car.

“Thank you for bring-ing down the water,” yelled one resident from her car as she drove off.

Normally, the water is collected for distribu-tion from other mosques around the country, but to-day’s water was courtesy of Howard University.

The mosque’s Imam, Hanafi Malik, said during normal water distribution they typically give about five cases per car, but a de-lay in shipments left avail-able stock limited.

Ironically, the mosque is just two blocks from a fire station, an official site for water and filter distri-bution. At the fire station, residents can only receive two cases.

The Muslim House be-gan distributing water six months ago, before official

water resource sites were established, Malik said.

“We recognized what was going on for a while,” he said. “Everybody knows us.”

Flint is ASB’s newest site and organizers only had a few weeks to prepare.

“There’s been an inter-est in Flint for ASB since the water crisis broke news,” said Joshua Narcisse, a Howard senior who helped coordinate the students’ transportation, housing, food and activities. “ASB wanted to be more re-sponsive to new events.

“The water crisis shined a light on some big issues that were already here, that need to be addressed with the same urgency.”

Howard University Students spent their first day of spring break handling out bottled water to help the residents of Flint, Mich., as they struggle with the city’s water crisis. The city does not have clean water because city officials switched the water source to raise money. (Photos Courtesy Howard University News Service)


State newsCalifornia Launches Program Created by Jackson Bill to Encourage Healthy

Eating and Exercise After School

Senator Jackson with students from Santa Barbara Unified School District's A-OK after school program at Harding University Partnership School celebrating the launch of Cali-fornia’s DASH recognition program.

Brown, Waters Lead Call for SeC to Strengthen disclosure of Corporate Board diversity

AG harris, 16 Attorneys General urge Supreme Court to reverse

Lower Court decision on immigration

SACRAMENTO – As a result of a law authored by Senator Hannah-Beth Jackson (D-Santa Barbara), California has just launched the state’s first recogni-tion program to encourage healthy eating and exercise in after school programs.

Applications from after school programs are now being accepted by the Cali-fornia Department of Edu-cation for the California Distinguished After School Health (DASH) recogni-tion program, created by Jackson’s Senate Bill 949, which was signed into law by Governor Jerry Brown in 2014. The DASH program sets voluntary standards for exercise and the serving of healthy food and drinks and limits computer and televi-sion “screen time” for after school programs.

After school programs

that apply and meet these voluntary standards will be awarded a special “DASH” certification. Once the DASH recipients are chosen, a list will be accessible to parents on the California Department of Education’s website, likely sometime this summer.

“It’s terrific that the DASH program is now underway,” Jackson said. “DASH is about recognizing those after school programs that are making the voluntary yet vitally important effort to make children’s health a pri-ority. Good eating and exer-cise habits, when established early, help prevent childhood obesity and help lead to a lifetime of good health. The DASH program will also provide parents with impor-tant information about after school programs so they can make the best and most in-formed choices for their chil-

dren’s care.” “As a former teacher

and coach, I’m excited to see schools and community partners working together to offer students great after school programs with plen-ty of exercise and healthy nutrition options. We know that students who exercise and eat well do better in class and develop healthy habits for life,” said State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson.

“Obesity and diabetes are on the rise throughout the country and millennials are the first generation ex-pected to live shorter lives than their parents. At the Y, we know we can reverse this alarming trend. The State Alliance of YMCAs sponsored Senator Jackson's SB 949 in order to incentiv-ize after school programs to

LOS ANGELES – At-torney General Kamala D. Harris announced that Cali-fornia has joined 15 other states and the District of Columbia in a friend-of-the-court brief in the case of United States v. Texas, urging the Supreme Court to reverse an injunction up-held by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Cir-cuit. The injunction prohib-ited the federal government from putting into effect President Barack Obama’s immigration directives that were announced in Novem-ber 2014.

“President Obama has proposed common sense actions on immigration, which will allow millions of hard-working immigrants to come out of the shadows, contribute to the prosperity of this nation and build their American Dream,” said At-torney General Harris. “I urge the Supreme Court to reverse the lower court’s de-cision, and allow these im-portant immigration actions to move forward.”

This is the fifth multi-state amicus brief that At-torney General Harris has joined in this case, includ-ing the friend-of-the-court brief filed in December 2015 supporting the U.S. Department of Justice’s re-quest for the U.S. Supreme Court to review this case. Now that the Court has

Attorney General Kamala D. Harris

agreed to hear the case, in this brief the signatories urge the Court to reverse the lower court’s decision. The brief, signed by Cali-fornia, Connecticut, Dela-ware, Hawai’i, Illinois, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Mex-ico, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, and the District of Columbia, asks the Su-preme Court to lift the in-junction and allow the pro-grams to move forward.

The multi-state brief argues that the President’s immigration directives will benefit the States and further the public interest by allowing qualified un-documented immigrants to work legally and better support their families. This will increase State tax rev-

enue, enhance public safe-ty, and help avoid tragic situations in which parents are deported away from their U.S. citizen children, who are left to rely on State services or extended fam-ily. These considerations demonstrate that there is no irreparable injury to the plaintiff States, and that the balance of hardships and public interest strong-ly favor allowing the direc-tives to proceed without a preliminary injunction.

The brief stresses the overwhelming merits of President Obama’s immi-gration actions. Reversing the lower court’s decision will allow approximately 5 million people, including 1.2 million Californians, to apply for protection from deportation and work au-thorization. If enacted, poli-cies designed to strengthen the security of California and the nation will enter into effect, such as requir-ing eligible individuals to submit biometric data, pass criminal and national se-curity background checks, pay taxes, and meet the spe-cific requirements for the deferred action program, including having resided in the U.S. for at least five years. The federal policies would also expand a preex-isting program for certain immigrants who came to the United States as children.

WASHINGTON -- Lead-ing Democratic lawmakers urged the Securities and Ex-

change Commission to speed up its review of a proposal that would require compa-nies to provide more specific details about the diversity of their corporate boards. The proposal, which nine public pension fund administrators submitted to the SEC almost a year ago, encourages the agency to require companies to disclose board nominees’ gender, racial, and ethnic di-versity.

In a letter to SEC Chair Mary Jo White, the law-makers pressed the SEC to act on the proposal with-out any further delay. Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) and Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA), the senior Demo-crats on the Senate Banking and House Financial Ser-vices Committees, respec-tively, led the letter, which was also signed by Sens. Robert Menendez (D-NJ), Jeff Merkley (D-OR), and Cory Booker (D-NJ), and Reps. Marcy Kaptur (D-OH), Carolyn Maloney (D-NY), Tim Ryan (D-OH), Marcia Fudge (D-OH), and Joyce Beatty (D-OH).

The Ohio Public Em-ployees Retirement Sys-tems (OPERS) and eight other public pension fund administrators – including the California Public Em-ployees’ Retirement Sys-tem and the New York State Common Retirement Fund – submitted their rulemak-ing petition for more board diversity disclosure on March 31, 2015.

“While we applaud your decision to have SEC staff review OPERS’ petition, we are disappointed with the amount of time the SEC is taking to examine and seek public comment on this important and widely supported proposal,” the lawmakers wrote in their letter to White.

“Investment advisors, shareholders, policymakers, and other stakeholders have been telling the SEC and oth-ers for decades now that the diversity characteristics of board nominees and direc-tors is information they need to make informed investment and voting decisions. Simi-larly, stakeholders have been explaining for decades that enhanced diversity disclo-sures may promote sociode-mographic diversity on cor-porate boards, which in turn may promote better business strategy and corporate re-sults,” the lawmakers added.

The SEC adopted a rule change in 2009 that required publicly-traded companies to disclose more informa-tion on director selection and diversity. In their let-ter, the lawmakers outlined the new rule’s limitations, noting that companies have taken a variety of different

Financial expert releases the World’s First investment Book for Children

Author Prince Dykes with his book cover, and his 4-year old son WesleyWesley Learns to In-

vest by Prince Dykes is the world’s first investment book that targets children readers. The fictional book is about an 11-year old boy (Wesley, named after his 4-year son) who wants a gaming system, but instead learns about the importance of hard work, investing, and choosing stocks wisely. In the story, the boy’s father teaches him about the stock market, setting goals, and making smart decisions re-lated to finances.

Wesley Learns to Invest uses real world experiences to teach children valuable financial principles and practices while they are still at a young age. The book emphasizes that no-body can always have what they want. Children want-ing material things have an opportunity to learn about managing finances, and even investing, from this innovative narrative.

The book was released in June 2015, and is al-ready very popular – es-pecially in the state of Ha-waii where the author is

based. It has been added to several local school li-braries and public librar-ies throughout the state. Its currently available for purchase at Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble .com, Books-a-Million, Kindle, and iBook.about the author

Prince Dykes is a 31-year old active duty ser-vice member stationed at Pearl Harbor, but he has a lot of business and finance experience and knowledge that inspired him to au-thor an investment book for children. He works as a logistics specialist in the military with 12 1/2 years of responsibilities related to finances, he has an associ-ate’s degree in general stud-ies, bachelor’s degree in management, and Master’s in Business Administration (MBA), and he has a Series 65 license (Federal Invest-ment Advisor), a Series 63 license (Securities Agent), a life insurance license, and a health/accident license.

Dean of Distance Education Gwendolyn Lewis Huddleston and Chancellor Bernard LuskinVENTURA, Calif. – Ven-

tura College recently hosted its first district-wide Distance Education Summit on cam-pus at the new Applied Sci-ence Center to discuss the future of Distance Education throughout the district and statewide. Chancellor Ber-nard Luskin and Ventura Col-lege President Greg Gillespie joined Dean of Distance Education Gwendolyn Lewis Huddleston, Moorpark, Ox-nard and Ventura College ad-ministrators and faculty from across Ventura County in a discussion on the future of Distance Education.

“Ventura College is pleased to be one of eight pilot colleges participating in the statewide California Community Colleges On-line Education Initiative

(OEI), a collaboration to increase student access to high-quality online courses to ensure that more stu-dents are able to complete their educational goals,” ex-plained Board Chair Larry Kennedy. Through a com-mon course management system, students will be able to take classes at any of the colleges in the exchange us-ing a system of reciprocity.

“The OEI pilot program has given us an opportunity to be at the forefront of qual-ity distance education deliv-ery,” Huddleston said. “The feedback from attendees was overwhelmingly posi-tive and we now have fac-ulty from all three colleges registered for the new certi-fication training. The sup-port of President Gillespie

and David Fuhrmann, Vice Chancellor of Technology, has been critical in making this possible.”

Distance Education has come a long way from the days of correspondence class-es. Luskin, who supports this effort wholeheartedly, has been a pioneer in distance ed-ucation throughout his career. He served as founding Chan-cellor of Jones International University, the first accredited fully web-based university and as founding president of Coastline Community Col-lege, a respected model in distance and campus educa-tion now celebrating its 40th anniversary.

Sports newsLaila Ali: my dad Tried to Talk me out of Becoming a Boxer

Kam Chancellor Got the Cops Called on him for Looking at a Gym

After eli Apple, The nFL must Kick homophobia out of Football

By Lisa CaprettoShe might be the daughter of a boxing legend, but Laila Ali says her famous father

had nothing to do with her decision to become a fighter.Speaking with "Oprah: Where Are They Now?", Ali shattered the assumption that

Muhammad Ali's career choice was the big factor that influenced her own."I actually didn't have the idea to even step into the ring until I saw women's boxing

on television for the first time," Ali says. "I mean, they walked out of the ring with blood all over them and everything, and I was like, 'That's for me! I want to do that.'"

Ali began training quietly after school and after work, but her presence didn't go unnoticed.

"Of course, it got around. I mean, Muhammad Ali's daughter's in the gym. People are asking me, 'Are you going to fight?' and I'm like, 'No, I'm just trying to lose weight,'" Ali says.

It wasn't entirely untrue."I needed to lose about 30 pounds. You know, I wasn't an athlete before I started box-

ing," she points out. "I had to work my way up." Soon enough, word got around to Ali's father. He asked her point blank if she was

fighting, and Ali told him the truth: Yes, she was."He did everything he could to try to talk me out of it, indirectly," Ali says, flashing

a smile. "But it didn't work."

Laila Ali, now retired from boxing, went undefeated during

her fighting career.

By Erick FernandezThe National Football

League has explicitly told its teams not to ask about the sexual orientation of a player or potential player. Yet one Atlanta Falcons coach did just that when he asked Ohio State cor-nerback Eli Apple about the subject during the NFL Scouting Combine.

This time, professional football needs to take ac-tion.

Apple talked about the in-cident on Comcast SportsNet's "Breakfast on Broad."

"The Falcons coach, one of the coaches, was like, 'So do you like men?'" Apple said. "It was like the first thing he asked me. It was weird."

It was also clearly against the league's policy. As NFL spokesman Greg Aiello told CNN in 2013, "there are specific protec-tions in our collective bar-

millennials Want the Washington Football Team to Change its name

By Michael McLaughlinA growing number of

Americans -- especially young people -- think the Washington football team should change its name, according to a recent poll.

Public Policy Polling looked at what different de-mographics thought about the current name of the NFL team, which is offensive to many Native Americans. Among those ages 18 to 29, 70 percent said the team should change its name.

But that support plum-mets when you consider those over age 29. Among 30 to 45 year olds, only 22 percent favored a change. That number drops to 19 percent among 46 to 65 year olds, and 18 percent for anyone older.

Overall, 64 percent of the poll’s 410 responders said that the team should keep the name, compared to the 25 percent who support ditch-ing it. But opinions are clear-

ly shifting. The same poll, released in 2014, found 71 supported keeping the name while 18 percent said the team should pick a new one.

“These survey results confirm what we have sensed in so many different ways over the last few years: namely, that more and more Americans want the Nation-al Football League to start respecting people of color and stop marketing a dic-tionary-defined racial slur,” said Oneida Indian Nation representative Ray Halbrit-ter in a statement.“The NFL faces a critical choice: it can continue to try to promote, market and profit off an ugly epithet and alienate an in-creasingly large share of its potential fans, or it can stand on the right side of history and make a change.”

The poll was released on Feb. 5, but received little notice until the New York Daily News’ Chuck Modiano wrote about it.

gaining agreement with the players that prohibit discrimination against any player, including on the ba-sis of sexual orientation." Aiello said that any team that inquired about such matters would be "subject to league discipline." The NFL said it would investi-gate the latest incident.

Scouts have asked about athletes' sexual orientation more than once in the past, but previous instances haven't led to punishment. In the lead-up to the 2013 combine, teams were reportedly won-dering whether linebacker Manti T'eo was gay, although he said that no teams asked him directly. Tight end Nick Kasa said he was asked that year, "Do you like girls?"

This year, several key NFL members released

strong statements in the hours since Apple went public. DeMaurice Smith, executive director of the NFL Players' Association, expressed his outrage, calling the incident "another dehumanizing mo-ment in NFL combine his-tory." Atlanta Falcons head coach Dan Quinn said the assistant coach's question was "inappropriate and un-professional." The NFL front office called the situation "disappointing and clearly inappropriate," adding that the league will investigate what happened.

While these statements are welcome, disapproving words are not enough.

Of course, there should be an investigation. But it is clear that the team already knows who is at fault. Quinn said he spoke with the assistant coach person-ally and told him why the question was wrong.

If the investigation con-firms the story we've heard, NFL fans should expect the league to come down hard on the assistant coach. A small financial penalty or a two- or three-game suspen-sion isn't enough. What the coach did was not only in-trusive and disrespectful -- in a number of states, asking that type of question during the hiring process is illegal.

Seattle Seahawks safety Kam Chancellor tweeted on Wednesday night that he had the cops called on him while he was report-edly looking to buy a gym.

Chancellor said he walked up to the doors of the facility, which was closed at the time, and the employees apparently thought there was enough of a threat to call the po-lice.

The safety said he was upset at the situation be-cause all he wanted was the location's phone number and some basic informa-tion. According to ESPN's Sheil Kapadia, Chancel-lor helps run "fitness boot camps for women."

The 27-year-old post-ed a message on Twitter seemingly in response to the incident.

This is the second pub-lic incident in the past few months where cops were

called on a professional athlete who was simply trying to get service from a place of business. Em-ployees in a Wisconsin jewelry store called the po-lice on Milwaukee Bucks

player John Henson in October 2015, reporting "suspicious activity." This was after the jewelry store employees had locked the door and prevented him from walking inside.

Widow Says Cemetery rejected husband's ashes Because he was hispanic

is doing it for the babies. First Lady Michelle

Obama made surprise vis-its to Watkins Elemen-tary School and John Bur-roughs Elementary School in Washington, D.C., on Feb. 26, and the students were in complete disbelief.

As soon as Obama walked into the classroom, the little girls and boys couldn't contain their ex-citement as they squirmed in their seats with glee. One little boy ran to give her the warmest hug ever as soon as she walked in the door.

Obama's visit was a part

of her "Let's Move!" initia-tive to encourage kids to plant their own gardens. The First Lady talked to the students about the ben-efits of gardening, eating fresh fruits and vegetables, and she helped them pre-pare some nutritious tacos, too. Plus, she showed the kids that she wasn't afraid to get her hands dirty when she sat down with the kids to separate worms from the garden's compost.

"It's really me," she told the students who were still in disbelief. "I can't believe I'm sitting here digging out worms with you guys."

"Since we planted our White House Kitchen Gar-

den and created our 'Let's Move!' initiative to help kids grow up healthy, I've heard from people across the country who've been inspired to grow their own gardens and change how they think about the food they eat," Obama told To-day on Thursday. "And in my final year as first lady, I plan to get out and visit some of these folks."

And she's staying true to her word. After visiting the schools, the First Lady also popped up on a couple and their garden in a D.C., neighborhood. Obama said she is excited about visiting gardens across the country throughout the year.

"I'm so excited to tell their stories and thank them for the amazing work they're doing," she told TODAY about the garden-ers. "And that starts to-day!"

Way to go, FLOTUS!

By Hilary HansonA Texas widow who

planned to bury her hus-band's ashes in a commu-nity cemetery was horrified when she says a cemetery representative told her that they do not allow Hispanic people to be buried there.

Donna Barrera, who was married to her hus-band, Pedro, for 44 years, told Kiii News that the man in charge of San Domingo Cemetery in the communi-ty of Normanna expressly told her that Hispanic and black people could not be buried there.

Jimmy Bradford, head of the San Domingo Ceme-tery Association, confirmed to Kiii TV on Wednesday that he rejected Barrera’s request.

“He wasn't supposed to be buried there, because he's a Mexican, or of Span-ish descent, or whatever you want to say,” Bradford said, noting that his grand-father donated the land to be used as a cemetery for

“the people of Normanna.”Bradford did not im-

mediately respond to a request for comment from The Huffington Post.

Fox News Latino notes that this kind of discrimi-nation is illegal as per the 1948 Supreme Court Case, Shelley v. Kraemer. The Supreme Court ruled that racial covenants -- mean-ing contracts that bar spe-cific racial groups from buying, renting, or occu-pying a piece of property -- are illegal.

Barrera has now said she plans on suing the cemetery association.

Her case comes a month after Denton, Texas re-nounced a decades-old city cemetery deed requirement that specified the burial ground was for “whites only.” However, Denton city council member Dalton Gregory clarified to news station WFAA that the deed had long been unenforced, and that people of other rac-es were in fact buried there.

By Tyler TynesWASHINGTON -- Sen-

ate Republicans' obstruc-tion of President Barack Obama's Supreme Court nomination is racist, a co-alition of prominent black clergy members and civil rights leaders said.

Several leaders called the obstruction of Senate Majority Leader Mitch Mc-Connell (R-Ky.) and most of his caucus a form of bigotry that is similar to the racist rhetoric Donald Trump has used during his Republican Presidential nomination bid.

"I am morally outraged that the continued disre-spect of Obama has mani-fested itself in a Senate to change the rules because the president, ironically, happens to be black," said Rev. Dr. Freddy Haynes, a senior pastor of Friendship-

West Baptist Church in Dallas, Texas, during a con-ference call with reporters.

"I find it painfully ironic that the same voices that denounced Donald Trump for blatant racism, but in a very sophisticated, under-mining fashion, are holding democracy and justice hos-tage," Haynes added. "As far as I'm concerned, their racism may be more subtle than Donald Trump, but it's nonetheless the same."

The clergy leaders' outrage comes after black lawmakers in Congress also called GOP senators racist for saying they wanted to wait for the next president to choose the Su-preme Court nominee to re-place the late Justice Antonin Scalia -- hoping, of course, that a Republican claims the White House.

The Rev. Dr. James Per-

kins, president of the Pro-gressive National Baptist Convention, said Republi-cans are hypocritical when it comes to the constitu-tion, picking and choosing what to follow.

He said the only differ-ence between Trump and the Senate is that the reality TV star doesn't have a vote.

"In a sense, they are worse than Trump. Be-cause they have the power to act or to kill the rightful constitutional action in this process. This is even more dangerous," Perkins said.

In February, leaders of the National African Amer-ican Clergy Network and multiple black religious leaders sent a letter to Mc-Connell and Senate Minor-ity Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.), calling on them to

Five Tips for Planning a Property-Sharing

VacationBy nathaniel Sillin

If you've thought about renting property on vaca-tion, keep in mind that it's become a lot easier – and in some ways, harder.

Much of the vacation rental process has moved online, making the process simpler and more acces-sible. Also, the so-called "sharing economy" has al-lowed more people in the lodging business renting rooms and dwellings. In fact, a 2015 study by con-sulting firm EY notes that in one year alone, the world's dominant online room-shar-ing company – less than 10 years old – added more list-ings to its inventory than the largest global hotel compa-nies added rooms during the same period.

So vacation rentals are easier than ever, right? Pos-sibly, but you still need to protect your money against disappointing choices and possible fraud. Before committing to any kind of property rental or property-sharing vacation, do your homework. Here are five tips to get started:

1. evaluate your des-tination fully. The busiest tourist destinations gen-

Top Ten most incredible Supercars unveiled

This T-Shirt Will Let you 'See' inside The human Body

Feast your eyes on the ten most incredible pieces of automotive technology and passion that became a reality this year.10. Lotus 3-eleven

Introduced at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, the track-focused Lotus 3-Eleven is the fastest and most expensive car ever developed by Lotus. The hair rising 3-Eleven is actually an open-cockpit version of the Exige chassis, and comes with a revised 3.5-liter V6 engine that outputs 450 hp and 332 lb-ft. of torque.9. icona Vulcano

Dubbed as the ‘Vulcano’, the dream machine devel-oped by the Italian design house Icona is a very unique titanium and carbon fiber-bodied supercar. It features similar sharp and dramatic lines as the famous Blackbird SR-71 military plane, with a specific purpose: to improve engine cooling and reduce air turbulence generated by the wheels.8. Ferrari F12tdf

The limited-run Ferrari F12tdf – Tour de France – is a highly anticipated hardcore version of the F12. Produced in a limited run of just 799 units, this Ferrari shows off an improved engine and handling, plus better aerodynamics. It is powered by the same V12 6,262cc engine, which now develops an extra 40 PS (29 kW) and 15 Nm (11 lb-ft) of torque, when compared to the standard F12, specifically 780 PS (574 kW) and 705 Nm (521 lb-ft) of torque.

7. Zenos e10 r

The new Zenos E10 R, is a new improved version of the E10 supercar, a model that’s even more exciting than the Zenos E10 S. The powerful 2.3-liter turbocharged Eco-Boost engine, sourced off a Ford Focus RS, develops 350 PS (345 HP) and 475 Nm (350 lb-ft) of torque. Add in the six-speed manual, and you get 0 to 60 mph (96 km/h) in just 3 seconds and a top speed of 155 mph or 250 km/h.6. Lamborghini huracan LP 580-2 rWd

The RWD Lamborghini Huracan LP 580-2 was unveiled at the 2015 LA Auto Show, a striking red masterpiece meant to get your rear wheels, as well as your head spinning. The Italian supercar allows the driver to choose between three different driving modes: STRADA, SPORT and CORSA – meant for maximum performance at the track.5. Koenigsegg Agera rS

Koenigsegg has taken the wraps off the incredible Agera RS a while ago, which benefits from a new track-optimized front splitter, front winglets, side skirts, an advanced dynamic underbody flap system and a dynamically active rear spoiler.4. Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse La Finale

Finale. Designed to be reminiscent of the first Veyron, the supercar features a red and black exposed carbon fiber exterior, with black air scoops, two-tone wheels, as well as special “La Finale” badging.3. mcLaren 675LT Spider

One of the most prestigious names in automotive his-tory has now been finally put to rest. Bugatti has revealed the 450th and final Veyron: the Grand Sport Vitesse La

The McLaren 675LT Spider is a limited-edition mod-el, with only 500 units planned to be sold worldwide, which means this supercar will be pretty exclusive. With track-focused dynamics, a low curb weight and a 3.8-li-ter twin-turbocharged V8 engine hiding under the bon-net, any driver would be lucky to have a go behind this supercar’s driving-wheel.2. Fenyr SuperSport

Dubai supercar maker W Motors has revealed this year the new Fenyr Supersport. Boasting a radical de-sign, the Fenyr Supersport is actually a follow-up to the menacing Lykan Hypersport, which we all remember and still fear to this day.1. Aston martin Vulcan

Aston Martin never disappoints, most surely not with this incredible project. This is the company’s most pow-erful and thrilling supercar ever and it was dubbed the Aston Martin Vulcan. The track-only beast is fast, luxuri-ous and extremely desirable, with future owners having to gradually build racing experience behind the steering wheel of an Aston Martin V12 Vantage S, One-77 and a Vantage GT4 race car, before giving it all she’s got.

By Lee MoranYou could soon learn

how the human body works by going "inside" it via augmented reality t-shirts.

All you need is to download an app on a smartphone or tablet and point the device at the new invention, called a Virtua-li-Tee -- and you'll be able to see the body's internal organs, including a beating heart.

If you pair the device with a virtual reality head-set like Google Cardboard, you can even go on a vir-tual tour and get a 360 degree look at a person's insides. Well, the augment-ed-reality version, anyway.

Developer Curiscope hopes the wearable tech will teach children the joys of biology and revolu-tionize the way science is taught across the world.

"Too often we feel de-tached from learning," CEO Ed Barton said. "We study the body in school but only in a textbook, on a screen or with a solid model."

He said the Virtuali-Tee lets people "interact with the anatomy and explore it right there in front of you.""Have you ever won-dered what it looks like in-side of the heart? Now you

can actually experience it," he added.

Curiscope is pitching the concept for the $30 t-shirt and free app on crowdfunding site Kick-starter.

It launched Tuesday morning and gained more than $30,000 of invest-ment in the first 48 hours. It's now raised $37,000 of its $100,000 target. The chance to become involved ends on Mar. 31.

Barton dismisses claims

it's a gimmick. "Presented as the best way to learn about the body, and the future of schools, people suddenly get the product," he told The Huffington Post.

"And that's really what we're trying to do -- rei-magining how we learn so that it's an exciting adven-ture rather than a boring textbook. Taking it beyond a gimmick because it real-ly is a better way to learn."

erally have the broadest range of lodging options – from luxury hotels to hos-tels. Vacation rentals are usually a happy medium, located in desirable neigh-borhoods with a homey feel and kitchen availabil-ity that can make a stay a lot cheaper. However, ev-ery destination has certain ways of handling vacation rentals. While the newer generation of property-sharing companies might be active here, evaluate tra-ditional options like vaca-tion property brokers and listing services to compare prices and offerings. Also, search the name and ad-dress of the vacation prop-erty you're considering with the words "vacation rental scam" to see if any indication of fraud, crime or other trouble turns up.

2. Check local short-term rental laws. While it's generally easier to do this domestically than abroad, make sure the kind of vacation rental you're considering is legal. Check recent news clips or con-tact a local tourism bureau or chamber of commerce to see whether your target

municipality doesn't have legal or zoning restrictions on your chosen rental.

3. Verify the renter per-sonally and with local ex-perts and agencies. If your renter is reputable, he or she should be more than willing to have a detailed conver-sation about the property, costs, financial arrangements and onsite rules – including deadbolt locks you can con-trol if you are renting rooms within their residence. Make time to call the local tourism bureau, chamber of com-merce, or the local chapter of the Better Business Bureau (http://www.bbb.org)

4. for any details about the renter or the property. Ask the renter for referrals from previous renters, if possible, and consider the Federal Trade Commis-sion's (FTC) Scam Watch travel page (https://www.consumer.ftc.gov/taxono-my/term/877) for extensive updated advice on renting out-of-town property.

Full mouth reconstruction

By dr. Sid Solomon, ddS

Full mouth reconstruc-tion, also called full mouth restoration, is a method by which missing or damaged teeth are fully restored in health and appearance. This process involves the restora-tion of teeth in both the up-per and lower jaws and takes place over the course of several visits. A customized treatment plan is tailored to meet the distinct needs of each patient, and several dif-ferent types of procedures, including porcelain veneers, full-coverage crowns, inlays or onlays, implants or bridg-es, may be used.

Full mouth reconstruc-tion is used to treat prob-lems such as:

• Multiple missing teeth• Chipped or broken teeth• Severely damaged teeth

from wear, grinding, or ero-sion

• Malocclusion (mis-

alignment of bite)Who qualifies for full

mouth reconstruction?In order to qualify for

full mouth reconstruction, a patient’s oral health must meet certain requirements including:

• Condition of Teeth – The condition of teeth and the problems associated with them determine which materials and methods are most likely to result in suc-cessful treatment. Common dental problems include cavities, decay, tooth wear, misshapen teeth, and root canal problems. If these problems are evident, the teeth must first be removed or restored to their optimal health before reconstruction can begin.

• Temporomandibular joints, bite, and jaw problems – If you suffer from problems associated with the temporo-

mandibular joint (which may result in pain in the jaw, com-monly called TMJ), you may be grinding teeth or have a misaligned bite. If your bite or jaw is not in good health for full mouth reconstruction, correction of the issue may precede full mouth recon-struction treatment.

• Healthy gum tissues: Scaling and root planing may be used to treat infec-tion of the gums (called periodontal disease). Gum health is essential for suc-cessful treatment. Without a solid foundation, further

Phony ‘irS’ Threatens Fines

Beware of con artists out to scam taxpayers out of their hard-earned money.

By Robert PreidtOn rare occasions, a

very joyful event might harm your heart, a new study suggests.

Previous research has found that extreme emo-tions such as grief, anger and fear can trigger chest pain and breathlessness, heart attack, heart failure and even death. The condi-tion is relatively rare, and experts refer to it as takot-subo syndrome, or broken heart syndrome.

The syndrome is the re-sult of a sudden, temporary weakening of the heart muscles that causes the left ventricle, the heart’s main pumping chamber, to bal-loon out at the bottom and not pump as well.

This new research is the first study to find that a small fraction of these peo-ple can develop this prob-lem after a happy event. The researchers dubbed it “happy heart syndrome.”

The findings show that doctors need to consider “that patients who arrive in the emergency department with signs of heart attacks, such as chest pain and breathlessness, but after a happy event or emotion, could be suffering from [takotsubo syndrome] just as much as a similar patient presenting after a nega-tive emotional event,” said study co-author Dr. Jelena Ghadri, resident cardiolo-gist at University Hospital Zurich, in Switzerland.

The study also sug-gests “that happy and sad life events may share simi-lar emotional pathways that can ultimately cause [takotsubo syndrome],” Ghadri added.

In the study, the research-ers analyzed data from 1,750 patients worldwide who were diagnosed with takot-subo syndrome. They found that there was a definite emo-tional trigger in 485 patients.

Of those, 20 (4 percent) de-veloped the syndrome after a happy occasion, such as a birthday party, wedding, surprise farewell celebration, a favorite sports team win-ning a game, or the birth of a grandchild.

But the majority -- 465 cases (96 percent) -- oc-curred after sad or stressful events such as the death of a loved one, attending a fu-neral, relationship problems, or concerns about an illness.

Ninety-five percent of people who experienced the syndrome after an emotional trigger were women. The average ages were 65 for those with bro-ken heart syndrome and 71 for those with happy heart syndrome.

Those results reinforce the belief that most cases of takotsubo syndrome occur in postmenopausal women, ac-cording to the authors of the study published March 2 in the European Heart Journal.

(NewsUSA) - Spon-sored News - You know how comforting it is to see a degree framed on the wall when you visit some professional’s office?

Well, next time you consult a doctor of chiro-practic, get ready to feel very, very comforted.

That’s because his or her degree attests to the rigor-ous training -- a minimum of seven years of higher education, including clini-cal patient management -- that doctors of chiropractic must complete. Not every-one, though, apparently realizes what that means in terms of better health out-comes for patients.

“Doctors of chiropractic are not only trained in prob-lems dealing with the spine, but are formally educated in clinical examination and diagnosis -- with a focus on conservative health care interventions for the well-being of the whole person,” explains Sherry McAllister, DC, executive vice presi-dent of the not-for-profit

Foundation for Chiroprac-tic Progress.

Among the required coursework:

• Basic sciences of anat-omy, physiology, neurol-ogy, biomechanics, micro-biology and pathology.

• Ethics and integrity.• Clinical sciences, in-

cluding nutrition, rehabili-tation and therapeutic pro-cedures.

• Research methodology.

The importance of qual-ity education for chiroprac-tors was recognized as early as 1935, when the National Chiropractic Association created a Committee on Educational Standards. That ultimately led to the forma-tion of the Council on Chi-ropractic Education, which is recognized by the U.S. Department of Education as the accrediting agency for CHIROPRACTORS, See page 11B

By Ron BurleyAn alert AARP member

recently got a call from an “IRS agent” and right away sensed something was pho-ny. The agent left a voice mail message saying back taxes were owed and told the man to call back right away.

The AARP member con-tacted me instead, and I re-turned the call, posing as him.

The supposed IRS agent told me that my only hope to avoid jail was to pay fines and back taxes before the police came knocking at my door. He also said there

might be a way I could stay out of the slammer but only if I acted quickly.

For the next 10 min-utes, he alternated between threats of pending arrest and hopes for salvation. Fi-nally, he directed me to a local market where I could purchase several thousand dollars worth of Green Dot MoneyPaks — a way to transfer cash to another per-son instantly by just giving him or her a secret code number. Having received my instructions, I promised to call back when I’d com-pleted my mission. I didn’t, of course, because I knew right away this was a scam.

The Federal Trade Com-mission reports that, from 2013 to 2014, complaints about the “IRS Scam” in-creased 20-fold, with more than 54,000 Americans be-ing targeted in 2014. Fraud-sters often target immigrants or older Americans less like-ly to have the knowledge or support system that would keep them from falling into the trap.

Unfortunately, IRS scammers often thwart tracking efforts by operat-ing from overseas, using relayed calls and by show-ing bogus caller IDs. The display on my phone had actually read “IRS GOV.”

computers as little as once a week may help ward off age-related declines in memory and thinking, new research suggests.

The study found that those who did use a comput-er showed a 42 percent lower risk of developing mild cog-nitive impairment (MCI), a precursor to dementia.

What isn’t yet clear is exactly how computer use might help save memory and thinking abilities.

“We did not investigate mechanisms that might un-derlie the association be-tween mentally stimulating activities such as computer use and the risk of incident MCI,” said study author Janina Krell-Roesch, a re-search fellow at the Mayo Clinic in Scottsdale, Ariz. “Therefore, we can only speculate why computer use might be of help.”

Seniors who reach for their keyboards may simply be more likely to adhere to a generally healthier and more “disciplined” lifestyle, Krell-Roesch suggested. Or, it could be that computer use actually brings about beneficial brain changes. It’s also possible that computers may help seniors compen-sate and cope more effec-tively when mild memory and thinking problems do start to set in. Or, it could be a combination of all three, she said.

It’s also important to note that this study wasn’t designed to prove a cause-

and-effect relationship. It can only show an associa-tion between computer use and better memory and thinking with age.

Krell-Roesch is to pres-ent the findings in April at the American Academy of Neurology’s annual meet-ing, in Vancouver, Canada. Findings presented at meet-ings are generally viewed as preliminary until they’ve been published in a peer-reviewed journal.

To explore how com-puter use and other forms of mental stimulation might affect dementia risk, the study included more than 1,900 seniors. None had signs of thinking or memo-ry problems when the trial began. All were 70 or older.

All of the seniors com-pleted an activity question-naire about the year that had just passed. Stimulating activity options included reading, socializing, game-

playing and craft-making, as well as computer use. The health of study volun-teers was then followed for an average of four years.

The result: engaging in any of the activities at least once a week was associated with a lower risk for developing mild cognitive impairment.

Computer use at least once a week was linked to a 42 percent drop in the risk for memory or thinking issues. About 18 percent of those who used a computer ended up developing mild cognitive impairment, compared with nearly 31 percent of seniors who didn’t use a computer.

Reading magazines was associated with a 30 percent drop in the risk of memory and thinking issues. Partici-pating in social activities was associated with 23 percent drop in the risk for devel-oping memory impairment. Practicing a craft task, such

Sarah Vaughan is Being Honored with a Postage Stamp

Sherri Shepherd Loses Appeal in Court Battle over

Child Born via Surrogate

Kendrick Lamar releases Surprise new Album, 'untitled unmastered'

By Aaron Couch and Di-ane Herbst

Sherri Shepherd will continue to have to pay child support to ex hus-band Lamar Sally for a child the former couple had via a surrogate.

The Pennsylvania Su-preme Court declined to hear the former The View host's case after an appeals

court ruled that Shepherd was the boy's legal mother, PEOPLE has confirmed.

The child, who is named L.J., was conceived using Sally's sperm and a donor egg, so Shepherd does not have a genetic connection to the boy. In November, a Pennsylvania court of appeals upheld a lower court's April decision that

Shepherd's name would remain on L.J's birth certif-icate. The court ruled that she must continue paying child support for L.J., who is being raised by Sally and was born in August 2014 after the couple broke up.

Melissa Brisman, found-er of Reproductive Possi-bilities, which arranged the surrogacy for Shepherd and Sally, is praising the court's decision as a "victory for reproductive rights."

"This ruling should give comfort to the surro-gate and future parents," she tells PEOPLE.

Last year, Sally praised the court for ruling in his favor.

"I'm glad it's finally over," Sally told PEOPLE in November after the appeals ruling. "I'm glad the judges saw through all the lies that she put out there, and the negative media attention. If she won't be there for L.J. emotionally, I'll be parent enough for the both of us."

In August, Shepherd, 48, told PEOPLE she went through with the surroga-cy despite having marital problems with Sally, be-cause she feared her then-husband would break up with her.

"My situation was a sense of, I didn't state what I needed and what I wanted and what I didn't want for being scared of somebody leaving the relationship," she said. "There are conse-quences to everything, but I was scared to say, 'That's not going to work for me. I don't want that.'

The unannounced album can be purchased on iTunes, or streamed on Spotify or Apple Music.

It's unclear whether the official release was forced after Spotify apparently leaked the artwork and track list. It wouldn't be the first time that a La-mar release didn't stick to schedule. His 2015 mas-terpiece, "To Pimp A But-terfly," was released more than a week early.

Each of the eight tracks on "untitled unmastered" has a specific date associ-ated with it, covering the years of 2013, 2014 and 2016, perhaps suggesting the recording dates of them.

In an interview last month, Lamar said he had a

“chamber of material” that had never been released. The Grammy-winning rapper has performed unreleased songs in several television performances including last month's Grammys ceremo-ny, stoking the excitement for his next offering.

(NewsUSA) - Spon-sored News - It sounds so simple: Relax. Let go. Just breathe.

These mantras, while soothing, are difficult to embrace because most Americans are overworked, over-scheduled and gener-ally stressed out.

The reality is that anx-iety is a universal afflic-tion affecting millions of

Americans. And while most will admit to being un-der some kind of pressure -- be it financial, work or family challenges -- getting America to unplug and unload is proving to be a difficult task.

"Many of us have a certain appropriate nostalgia for a quality of life that has been lost," Rev. Diane Kessler, retired executive director of the Massachu-setts Council of Churches, told the Boston Globe in an interview. "Many of us remember when we went to church on Sunday morning and then had a family meal afterwards. In a 24/7 society, those rhythms and those patterns have been lost."

Joyce Meyer, best-selling author, speaker and Bible teacher, agrees that the demands of modern life can be all-consuming, making it hard to mute distractions. In her new book, OVERLOAD: How to Unplug, Unwind, and Unleash Yourself from the Pressure of Stress, Mey-er addresses this problem by identifying the catalysts of worry in your life, as well as offering practical, effective advice and wisdom from a scriptural standpoint that she believes is the answer to curing your stress.

"Nobody is immune to stress," Meyer says. "But through exploring the inspiring insights of the Bible and calling on God's strength to help you triumph over stress, you can achieve the joyful, peaceful life that is intended for you."

Beyond the Rhetoric:The Strangest Campaign

year everharry C. alford

This is how Ben Carson Changed electoral

Politics Foreverarmstrong Williams

This has become one of the strangest campaign sea-sons I have ever seen. First there is Donald Trump who most seasoned critics fig-ured would be a laughable candidate who would not stay in the race too long. But oh how they were wrong. Mr. Trump is leading in the polls and he just might win the nomination. That is very concerning to the “establish-ment Republicans”. They are having meetings behind closed doors throughout the nation. How could this for-mer Democrat become so popular with the American citizenship?

It is really very simple. Trump is saying what the people want to hear. He resonates with the com-mon American. There is no political dialogue in his discussion. There is no wiggle room with his re-sponse to questions. People are responding with their feet. The turnouts at the elections so far have been overwhelming on the re-publican side. The higher the turnout, the more votes for Trump. In essence, peo-ple are tired of the typical politicians. They are tired of broken promises; scan-dals that have no conclusion – no prosecutions, no ac-countability. We have seen the Veterans Administration filled with scandals and yet no one is held accountable.

Women entrepreneurs have a powerful role model when they consider Madam C.J. Walker. One of our na-tion’s first female self-made millionaires, her story of combining herbs to develop and manufacture a hair po-made, of empowering tens of thousands of women as sales agents for her products, and of establishing a beauty school to teach beauty tech-niques (and provide eco-nomic empowerment for even more women) are the stuff of legend. She was not only an entrepreneur, but also a philanthropist. She “lived large,” owning two cars and a sprawling estate, Villa Lewaro in Irvington, New York, but she shared her wealth (Black million-aire Harold Doley purchased Villa Lewaro in 1993. It is a National Historic Land-mark). She was possessed with an amazing self-confi-dence that served her well in business and in life.

Madam (as she is called by her great-granddaugh-ter, A’Lelia Bundles, the keeper of the family history and author of books about her ancestor (On Her Own Ground: The Life and Times of Madam C. J.

When it’s all said and done, and the 2016 politi-cal season has come to an end – two things will have assuredly happened. First, we will have elected a new President of the United States. Second, the tone of electoral politics will have changed forever in the Unit-ed States. Dr. Ben Carson, who announced last week that he would be suspending his campaign, has forever changed electoral politics in the United States for the better. He will be remem-bered as having run one of the most unique and – espe-cially by contrast – dignified campaigns in presidential election history.

To be completely fair to Carson, he did not actively seek the role of presidential candidate; he was drafted into it. After his appear-ance at the National Prayer breakfast in 2013 (his sec-ond, making him and evan-gelist Billy Graham the only persons to be invited twice to speak at the breakfast), in which he criticized so-called progressive policies and called them essentially un-Christian, many people took notice of Carson. The closer they looked, the more they like what they saw. A slow, gentle, but unmistak-able mantra began to gather steam among Americans urging Carson to “Run, Ben, Run.” This phrase echoed

The party establishment can’t fathom the thought of Trump being our nominee, despite him playing by the very rules that the estab-lishment, who are trying to sabotage his campaign, created. Go figure.

I am stunned that many in the establishment ran over each other to denounce Trump over the David Duke and KKK issue, which I found kind of bizarre.

Most people are criti-cized for what they say, not for what they didn’t say. Many of these people that denounced Trump over what some have said was him stoking racial fears among voters all of a sudden became filled with righteous indignation over what they deemed to be a racist act by Trump.

But where were these same people when…

South Carolina congress-man Joe Wilson shouted to Obama “you lie” during a joint session of Congress.

Colorado congressman, Doug Lamborn said, “now I don’t want to be associat-ed with him [Obama], it’s like touching a tar baby.”

Sarah Palin once wrote on her Facebook, “Presi-dent Obama’s shuck and jive shtick with these Benghazi lies must end.”

This feigned righteous indignation over Trump is nothing more than a political

stunt, because the Republi-can establishment is scared crapless of the possibility of a Trump nomination.

The other thing that I noticed was the lack of any Black Republicans repre-senting any of the Repub-lican institutions in the me-dia. This shows once again, how tone deaf the party is when it comes to the Black community and optics.

You rarely, if ever, see the party avail a Black staffer to deal with an is-sue of race that involves the Black community. Part of the reason is that the few Blacks that work for the party have absolutely no standing or credibility within the Black commu-nity when it comes to is-sues of race.

The other reason is that most Black Republicans constantly tell their superi-ors that they “don’t” want to speak on issues that pertain to the Black com-munity; they want to be an employee, not a Black em-ployee of the party.

The party is totally oblivious to the optics of only trotting out Whites to speak out on issues per-ceived to be racists towards the Black community.

Where are Black Repub-lican civil rights icons like Bob Brown or Bob Wood-son? Where are people like Shannon Reeves, lifetime

member of the NAACP and former board member?

Because Republicans have no Blacks with any type of authority or knowl-edge of PR and commu-nications, they continue to dig themselves into a deeper hole.

Let me say for the re-cord, there is not one shred of evidence in Trumps body of work that he has any rac-ist tendencies whatsoever. If I have to judge a man by his words or his actions; his ac-tions will win out everytime.

But isn’t it amazing that the only person running for president that has shown an ability to build a coalition of Blacks, whites, Hispanics, blue collar, and white collar workers is the very person the party’s establishment is trying to discredit?

Trump is the only cam-paign that has Blacks on TV and in newspapers of-ficially representing the campaign. Last Tuesday at his post SEC primary press conference, Trump looked directly into the camera and said that he will get 25 percent of the Black vote.

TRUMP, See page 11B

The IRS is filled with scan-dals and no one has been held accountable despite all of the evidence. Our troops are being betrayed by their government. Trump is say-ing that he is going to clean it all up and that mantra may get him to the White House.

Then there is something very strange with the Dem-ocrat primaries. We have Hillary Clinton whose bag-gage is filled with apparent scandals. This person stole silverware from the White House when her husband’s presidential term was up. She appears to have no shame and can cleverly dodge around controversy in plain sight. Her main com-petition is Senator Bernie Sanders who isn’t a member of the Democratic Party. He is a registered Independent and a Socialist. That seems to be an oxymoron. How-ever, it is happening! An admitted socialist which is pretty close to a communist is striving to get into the White House. To me this is rather scary. I don’t see an alternative for the American democrats.

There is another thing that is very odd. Ms. Clinton is under a criminal investiga-tion (she is in denial and calls it a “security review”). She appears to be cool and calm as the email investigation gets larger and larger. They have over 100 FBI agents

investigating her while she runs for the President of the United States. There has never been such a candidate in the history of this na-tion. She may be indicted and nominated for the presi-dency at the same time. Her following doesn’t care about the investigation. Do they actually believe she is wor-thy of the presidency? Evi-dently they do! She is lead-ing in the democratic race.

Bernie Sanders may be giving her the win. He will not discuss the security is-sues with her email and at home server. It would a big crossroads if she gets indict-ed. She is so shameless that I believe she would try to continue on with the election as the court process is taking place. There may be an out for her in this mess. Presi-dent Obama has the right to give her a full pardon if she is found guilty. It seems that such a decision would ruin his legacy and the American people would drop Hillary from the candidate rank-ings. Another option would be to order Attorney Gen-eral Loretta Lynch to stand down. How do you handle someone who has broken national security hundreds

throughout Carson’s trav-els through America in the early months of 2014, as he visited cities and towns, speaking at churches, high schools and book signings. It began to take on real sig-nificance when a political action committee with the same name was formed.

Carson was initially sur-prised but appreciative of all of the accolades and encour-agement he was receiving from all around the country. He was already transitioning into a retirement after an il-lustrious medical career, and looking forward to devoting time to personal pursuits. But the clamor from those around the country who saw Carson as a “Breath of Fresh Air” continued to encourage him and make him consider the fact that God had a plan for him beyond just retiring to a life of comfort and ease. Ever eager to obey and ap-pear willing in the sight of God, Carson seriously con-sidered the options. He ulti-mately let both his faith and his intellect guide his deci-sion to take the risk and en-ter the presidential contest.

Those who really know Carson, who understand the magnitude of what he was able to accomplish in the field of medicine, know that he is a person who is quite accustomed to taking risk. What may not be widely un-derstood even among people

who know him is that he has evolved a robust and unique framework for when, why and how to take calculated risks. In fact, he wrote an entire book on risk-taking in everyday life called “Take the Risk.” He starts out with the premise that the extent to which we avoid taking risks also reduces our ultimate potential in life. But one of the most interesting aspects of his framework is the B/W Case Analysis, in which Carson essentially poses the questions: What is the Best/Worst thing that can happen if I do this? What is the Best/Worst thing that can happen if I don’t do this?

Carson did not enter the race with his blinders on. He was fully aware of the fact that with his lack of political experience and his stand on great moral issues, he was not likely to be the ultimate nominee. He said as much many times during the early parts of the cam-paign. But he also knew that he was taking a calcu-lated risk that was essen-tially all upside for him and America. At the very worst, he would have contributed to the debate and got people

2013)), was a character! She changed her name from Sarah Breedlove to Madam C.J. Walker to pro-vide herself with a “classi-er” sounding name, and to help prevent white people from calling her “Aunt”, as they called so many Afri-can American women. She didn’t want whites calling her the demeaning “Aunt” (to close to Mammy, for my thinking), nor did she want the patronizing atti-tudes of Black men to af-fect the way she went about her business. For years, she sought the opportunity to speak at Booker T. Wash-ington’s National Business League, but was denied. As legend goes, she went to one of the meetings and took the mic and made her speech, despite official de-nial. Why should she not have spoken? She was one of the most successful business people of her gen-eration. She was one of the most generous philanthro-pists. She financially spon-sored the anti-lynching campaign. Perhaps Booker T. Washington was being a sexist, or perhaps (it is sometimes said) he had an ideological opposition to a woman whose product was perceived as straightening hair. By the way, Walker did not invent the straight-ening comb. Annie Malone, who preceded Madam

Walker in making her for-tune with beauty products and a beauty school that Walker attended, invented the straightening comb.

Whether Washington want-ed Madam Walker to speak, she had the audacity to take the mic and say her piece. She noted that she had pro-moted herself from a washer-woman to a businesswoman, speaking to the fact that few were available to help her to achieve her goals and the goals of tens of thousands of other women. Her audacity, her self-possession, her ac-tivism were notable during a time when few women, regardless of race, promoted themselves, instead choos-ing to walk softly and speak quietly. Today, women like Cathy Liggons Hughes (TV/Radio One), Sheila Johnson (co-founder of BET), and Oprah Winfrey stand on her shoulders.

And today, in time for Women’s History Month, Madam C.J. Walker’s prod-ucts are making a comeback. Her historic formulas have been modified for contem-porary use, with four formu-las made available based on hair texture. A’lelia Bundles has been supportive of the

The President also praised the diversity in both nations and gave a shout-out to Indigenous Peoples in both countries.

“[A]s two vast and vibrant societ-ies, we reaffirm that our diversity is our strength—whether your family was among the first native peoples to live on these lands or refugees we welcomed just yesterday,” he said. “Whether you pray in a church or a synagogue, or a temple, or a mosque. Where, no matter what province or state you live in, you have the freedom to marry the person that you love.”

Obama then joked that the U.S. and Canada would never agree on whose beer was better or who was better at hockey. When Trudeau smiled and shook his head at that, Obama joked about the Stanley Cup being in the hands of a U.S. Hockey team, to groans and laughter from the crowd.

“Where’s the Stanley Cup right now?” asked Obama. “I’m sorry. Is it in my hometown with the Chicago Blackhawks? In case you Canadians were wondering, where is it?”

In his remarks,Trudeau thanked the President for a warm recep-tion and also for being so powerful that he had organized the beautiful weather.

In the midst of discussing the de-sire to work closely to reduce trade barriers between the two countries, Trudeau used the opportunity to re-spond to Obama’s hockey remarks with a laugh.

“[S]peaking of exports, we know with certainty that there’s a high demand for Canadian goods down here,” he said. “A few that come to mind that President Obama just rightly recognized as being extraordinary contributors to the American success story is Jonathan Toews, Duncan Keith and Patrick Sharp of the Chicago Blackhawks.”

Trudeau ended with remarks of further appreciation.

“Our great countries have been friends a long time. We grew up to-gether. And like all great enduring friendships, at our best, we bring out the best in one another. We could not be prouder of that past...On behalf of 36 million Canadians, I thank you all for your warm welcome. Now let’s get to work on shaping our shared future.”

Some African American finan-cial experts and business leaders like Aubry Stone, President and CEO of the California Black Chamber of Commerce, applaud the efforts of JPMorgan Chase to solve this problem, but was very critical and concerned about the organizations’ decision to not enlist or invite Afri-can-American led organizations to help administer the financing.”

“If this fund is set up to help Af-rican-American businesses, would it not benefit the community if an African-American-led organiza-tion like the Nehemiah Corporation or others were chosen to lead this effort?” questions Stone. That’s a clear win-win situation helping to achieve the goal of the initiative and strengthen our communities’ finan-cial infrastructure.”

Last week in Los Angeles Chase and VEDC launched the initiative. The morning breakfast showcased a panel of one VEDC start up success story and others including actress and model, Beverly Johnson, who shared experiences of trying to ob-tain loan financing.

While VEDC showcased one Black business it had funded in 2011 others have been critical and pointed out that the Latino led organization does not have a great reputation in the Black community. Tisto Chap-man former owner of Powerhouse Gym in Burbank spoke to CBM about the loan he obtained from VEDC, a loan he felt was preda-tory and ultimately left him closing his business and owing more than $400,000 dollars.

He describes his engagement with VEDC as “abrasive” and says other Black borrowers he knows share similar experiences. “We got replies across the board from people saying they had negative interactions with this agency,” he says.

Public records also indicate that VEDC foreclosed on Maverick Flats, a popular club in the Black community, that sits along Cren-shaw Blvd. Maverick Flats is cur-rently listed for $4.25 million and us-ing the selling point that the property is in “the path of the new Crenshaw/LAX Transit Project.”

According to VEDC President Roberto Barragan and OC Isaac na-tional program manager, VEDC is working with numerous Black busi-ness organizations, including US Black Chamber of Commerce, to address the issues Black businesses face getting enough funding for their ventures as compared to other groups.

But Ron Busby president and CEO for the US Black Chamber, has indicated that the chamber has no knowledge of the JP Morgan Chase, VEDC loan initiative nor is it in support of it.”

FAITHFrom page 2A

Believe is a verb. Believe is what we do.

Believe is acting upon our faith or information (instructions) we get from God for us to act upon.

What are the major enemies of Faith:

1. Doubt. This comes from your own thoughts; you must ig-nore them.

2. Distraction. This comes from other people trying to dis-courage you; you must ignore them.

3. Doing nothing. If you sit and do nothing thinking that God would do it without you, you will get nothing. You must act on God’s word this is the way you show God you believe His word.

JOYFULFrom page 2Ayou believe your goal is too big or too difficult. Remember it’s all about what you tell yourself. If you tell yourself you will succeed, you will. Imagine having fun every step of the way. Imagine the joyful journey to add fuel to your fire.

Earl Nightingale tells us, “We are at our very best, and we are hap-piest, when we are fully engaged in work we enjoy on the journey to-ward the goal we’ve established for ourselves. It gives meaning to our time off and comfort to our sleep. It makes everything else in life so wonderful, so worthwhile.”

Each one of us makes choices every day about how we will live our journey. There are many ways we can make that journey more joy-ful. Think about little things you can do every day to make a difference in how you perceive and experience your life. You deserve it. You owe it to yourself. And no one else is doing it for you! When I leave my home to make my way to my office, I have a choice about the road I travel to reach my destination. When I turn left at the light I commit to joining the rush of traffic on the 101 free-way where I enter a fast paced group of four lanes of cars. Frontage road businesses and sound walls become a blur outside my window. I am fo-cused in flight-fight mode as I drive defensively at speeds of 60-65 mph over the next ten miles before my exit. When I arrive, I take a moment to settle myself and transition into a calm state of being.

But if I make a choice to turn right at the light, I embark on a dif-ferent journey. Just moments from home, at a leisurely pace of 40 mph, I travel by the wide open spaces of national park land and Boney Moun-tain ridge. This route is a little longer. Maybe three miles and six or seven minutes. But it is worth my time. I’m able to enjoy the view of this mag-nificent display of nature and feel a sense of connection to it. I travel through a winding road past pastures where horses graze and hawks fly. Sometimes in the early morning, I encounter thick fog that blankets the valley with a quiet softness. I’m sur-rounded by tranquil beauty. I drive with my sunroof open to listen to the silence over this journey. When I ar-rive at my destination, I am in a state of peace.

A simple choice. Turn left. Or turn right. Forget about the destina-tion. Think about the joy of the jour-ney. Take time to enjoy each step of this amazing journey called life. And regarding that final destination, consider this thought from Enoch Powell. “If my ship sails from sight, it doesn’t mean my journey ends, it simply means the river bends.”

GARLANDFrom page 2A

And today, after completing this exhaustive process, I’ve made my decision. I’ve selected a nominee who is widely recognized not only as one of America’s sharpest legal minds, but someone who brings to his work a spirit of decency, mod-esty, integrity, even-handedness, and excellence. These qualities, and his long commitment to public service, have earned him the respect and admiration of leaders from both sides of the aisle. He will ultimately bring that same character to bear on the Supreme Court, an institution in which he is uniquely prepared to serve immediately.

Today, I am nominating Chief Judge Merrick Brian Garland to join the Supreme Court. (Applause.)

Now, in law enforcement circles, and the in the legal community at large, Judge Garland needs no in-troduction. But I’d like to take a minute to introduce Merrick to the American people, whom he already so ably serves.

He was born and raised in the Land of Lincoln -- in my hometown of Chicago, in my home state of Il-linois. His mother volunteered in the community; his father ran a small business out of their home. Inherit-ing that work ethic, Merrick became valedictorian of his public high school. He earned a scholarship to Harvard, where he graduated summa cum laude. And he put him-self through Harvard Law School by working as a tutor, by stocking shoes in a shoe store, and, in what is always a painful moment for any young man, by selling his comic book collection. (Laughter.) It’s tough. Been there. (Laughter.)

Merrick graduated magna cum laude from Harvard Law, and the early years of his legal career bear all the traditional marks of excel-lence. He clerked for two of Presi-dent Eisenhower’s judicial appoin-tees -- first for a legendary judge on the Second Circuit, Judge Henry Friendly, and then for Supreme Court Justice William Brennan. Following his clerkships, Merrick joined a highly regarded law firm, with a practice focused on litigation and pro bono representation of dis-advantaged Americans. Within four years, he earned a partnership -- the dream of most lawyers. But in 1989, just months after that achievement, Merrick made a highly unusual ca-reer decision. He walked away from a comfortable and lucrative law practice to return to public service.

Merrick accepted a low-level job as a federal prosecutor in President George H.W. Bush’s administra-tion. He took a 50-percent pay cut, traded in his elegant partner’s office for a windowless closet that smelled of stale cigarette smoke. This was a time when crime here in Washing-ton had reached epidemic propor-tions, and he wanted to help. And he quickly made a name for himself, going after corrupt politicians and violent criminals.

His sterling record as a prosecu-tor led him to the Justice Depart-ment, where he oversaw some of the most significant prosecutions in the 1990s -- including overseeing every aspect of the federal response to the Oklahoma City bombing. In the af-termath of that act of terror, when 168 people, many of them small children, were murdered, Merrick had one evening to say goodbye to his own young daughters before he boarded a plane to Oklahoma City. And he would remain there for weeks. He worked side-by-side with first responders, rescue workers, lo-cal and federal law enforcement. He led the investigation and supervised the prosecution that brought Timo-thy McVeigh to justice.

But perhaps most important is the way he did it. Throughout the process, Merrick took pains to do everything by the book. When people offered to turn over evidence voluntarily, he refused, taking the harder route of obtaining the proper subpoenas instead, because Merrick would take no chances that someone who murdered innocent Americans might go free on a technicality.

Merrick also made a concerted effort to reach out to the victims and their families, updating them fre-quently on the case’s progress. Ev-erywhere he went, he carried with him in his briefcase the program from the memorial service with each of the victims’ names inside –- a con-stant, searing reminder of why he had to succeed.

Judge Garland has often re-ferred to his work on the Oklahoma City case as, and I quote, “the most important thing I have ever done in my life.” And through it all, he never lost touch with that community that he served.

It’s no surprise then, that soon af-ter his work in Oklahoma City, Mer-rick was nominated to what’s often called the second highest court in the land -- the D.C. Circuit Court. During that process, during that confirmation process, he earned overwhelming bi-partisan praise from senators and le-gal experts alike. Republican Senator Orrin Hatch, who was then chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, supported his nomination. Back then, he said, “In all honesty, I would like to see one person come to this floor and say one reason why Merrick Garland does not deserve this position.” He actually accused fellow Senate Re-publicans trying to obstruct Merrick’s confirmation of “playing politics with judges.” And he has since said that Judge Garland would be a “consen-sus nominee” for the Supreme Court who “would be very well supported by all sides,” and there would be “no question” Merrick would be con-firmed with bipartisan support.

Ultimately, Merrick was con-firmed to the D.C. Circuit, the sec-ond highest court in the land, with votes from a majority of Democrats and a majority of Republicans. Three years ago, he was elevated to Chief Judge. And in his 19 years on the D.C. Circuit, Judge Garland has brought his trademark diligence, compassion, and unwavering regard for the rule of law to his work.

On a circuit court known for strong-minded judges on both ends of the spectrum, Judge Garland has earned a track record of build-ing consensus as a thoughtful, fair-minded judge who follows the law. He’s shown a rare ability to bring to-gether odd couples, assemble unlike-ly coalitions, persuade colleagues with wide-ranging judicial philoso-phies to sign on to his opinions.

And this record on the bench speaks, I believe, to Judge Garland’s fundamental temperament -- his insistence that all views deserve a respectful hearing. His habit, to bor-row a phrase from former Justice John Paul Stevens, “of understand-ing before disagreeing,” and then disagreeing without being disagree-able. It speaks to his ability to per-

suade, to respond to the concerns of others with sound arguments and airtight logic. As his former col-league on the D.C. Circuit, and our current Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, John Roberts, once said, “Any time Judge Garland disagrees, you know you’re in a difficult area.”

At the same time, Chief Judge Garland is more than just a brilliant legal mind. He’s someone who has a keen understanding that justice is about more than abstract legal theory; more than some footnote in a dusty casebook. His life experience –- his experience in places like Okla-homa City –- informs his view that the law is more than an intellectual exer-cise. He understands the way law af-fects the daily reality of people’s lives in a big, complicated democracy, and in rapidly-changing times. And throughout his jurisprudence runs a common thread -– a dedication to protecting the basic rights of every American; a conviction that in a de-mocracy, powerful voices must not be allowed to drown out the voices of everyday Americans.

To find someone with such a long career of public service, marked by complex and sensitive issues; to find someone who just about everyone not only respects, but genuinely likes –- that is rare. And it speaks to who Merrick Garland is -- not just as a lawyer, but as a man.

People respect the way he treats others -- his genuine courtesy and respect for his colleagues and those who come before his court. They admire his civic-mindedness -- men-toring his clerks throughout their ca-reers, urging them to use their legal training to serve their communities, setting his own example by tutoring a young student at a Northeast D.C. elementary school each year for the past 18 years. They’re moved by his deep devotion to his family -- Lynn, his wife of nearly 30 years, and their two daughters, Becky and Jessie. As a family, they indulge their love of hiking and skiing and canoeing, and their love of America by visiting our national parks.

People respect Merrick’s deep and abiding passion for protect-ing our most basic constitutional rights. It’s a passion, I’m told, that manifested itself at an early age. And one story is indicative of this, is notable. As valedictorian of his high school class, he had to deliver a commencement address. The other student speaker that day spoke first and unleashed a fiery critique of the Vietnam War. Fearing the con-troversy that might result, several parents decided to unplug the sound system, and the rest of the student’s speech was muffled.

And Merrick didn’t necessarily agree with the tone of his classmate’s remarks, nor his choice of topic for that day. But stirred by the sight of a fellow student’s voice being silenced, he tossed aside his prepared remarks and delivered instead, on the spot, a passionate, impromptu defense of our First Amendment rights.

It was the beginning of a lifelong career -- as a lawyer, and a prosecu-tor, and as a judge -- devoted to pro-tecting the rights of others. And he has done that work with decency and humanity and common sense, and a common touch. And I’m proud that he’ll continue that work on our na-tion’s highest court.

I said I would take this process seriously -- and I did. I chose a se-rious man and an exemplary judge, Merrick Garland. Over my seven years as President, in all my con-versations with senators from both parties in which I asked their views on qualified Supreme Court nomi-nees -- this includes the previous two seats that I had to fill -- the one name that has come up repeatedly, from Republicans and Democrats alike, is Merrick Garland.

Now, I recognize that we have entered the political season -- or perhaps, these days it never ends -- a political season that is even nois-ier and more volatile than usual. I know that Republicans will point to Democrats who’ve made it hard for Republican Presidents to get their nominees confirmed. And they’re not wrong about that. There’s been politics involved in nominations in the past. Although it should be pointed out that, in each of those in-stances, Democrats ultimately con-firmed a nominee put forward by a Republican President.

I also know that because of Justice Scalia’s outsized role on the Court and in American law, and the fact that Americans are closely di-vided on a number of issues before the Court, it is tempting to make this confirmation process simply an ex-tension of our divided politics -- the squabbling that’s going on in the news every day. But to go down that path would be wrong. It would be a betrayal of our best traditions, and a betrayal of the vision of our founding documents.

At a time when our politics are so polarized, at a time when norms and customs of political rhetoric and courtesy and comity are so often treated like they’re disposable -- this is precisely the time when we should play it straight, and treat the process of appointing a Supreme Court jus-tice with the seriousness and care it deserves. Because our Supreme Court really is unique. It’s supposed to be above politics. It has to be. And it should stay that way.

To suggest that someone as qual-ified and respected as Merrick Gar-land doesn’t even deserve a hearing, let alone an up or down vote, to join an institution as important as our Supreme Court, when two-thirds of Americans believe otherwise -- that would be unprecedented.

To suggest that someone who has served his country with honor and dignity, with a distinguished track record of delivering justice for the American people, might be treat-

ed, as one Republican leader stated, as a political “piñata” -- that can’t be right.

Tomorrow, Judge Garland will travel to the Hill to begin meeting with senators, one-on-one. I simply ask Republicans in the Senate to give him a fair hearing, and then an up or down vote. If you don’t, then it will not only be an abdication of the Senate’s constitutional duty, it will indicate a process for nominating and confirming judges that is be-yond repair. It will mean everything is subject to the most partisan of politics -- everything. It will provoke an endless cycle of more tit-for-tat, and make it increasingly impossible for any President, Democrat or Re-publican, to carry out their constitu-tional function. The reputation of the Supreme Court will inevitably suffer. Faith in our justice system will in-evitably suffer. Our democracy will ultimately suffer, as well.

I have fulfilled my constitutional duty. Now it’s time for the Senate to do theirs. Presidents do not stop working in the final year of their term. Neither should a senator.

I know that tomorrow the Sen-ate will take a break and leave town on recess for two weeks. My earnest hope is that senators take that time to reflect on the importance of this pro-cess to our democracy -- not what’s expedient, not what’s happening at the moment, what does this mean for our institutions, for our common life -- the stakes, the consequences, the seriousness of the job we all swore an oath to do.

And when they return, I hope that they’ll act in a bipartisan fash-ion. I hope they’re fair. That’s all. I hope they are fair. As they did when they confirmed Merrick Garland to the D.C. Circuit, I ask that they con-firm Merrick Garland now to the Supreme Court, so that he can take his seat in time to fully participate in its work for the American people this fall. He is the right man for the job. He deserves to be confirmed. I could not be prouder of the work that he has already done on behalf of the American people. He deserves our thanks and he deserves a fair hear-ing.

And with that, I’d like to invite Judge Garland to say a few words. (Applause.)

JUDGE GARLAND: Thank you, Mr. President. This is the great-est honor of my life -- other than Lynn agreeing to marry me 28 years ago. It’s also the greatest gift I’ve ever received except -- and there’s another caveat -- the birth of our daughters, Jessie and Becky.

As my parents taught me by both words and deeds, a life of public ser-vice is as much a gift to the person who serves as it is to those he is serv-ing. And for me, there could be no higher public service than serving as a member of the United States Su-preme Court.

My family deserves much of the credit for the path that led me here. My grandparents left the Pale of Set-tlement at the border of Western Rus-sian and Eastern Europe in the early 1900s, fleeing anti-Semitism, and hoping to make a better life for their children in America. They settled in the Midwest, eventually making their way to Chicago.

There, my father, who ran the smallest of small businesses from a room in our basement, took me with him as he made the rounds to his cus-tomers, always impressing upon me the importance of hard work and fair dealing. There, my mother headed the local PTA and school board and directed a volunteer services agency, all the while instilling in my sister and me the understanding that service to the community is a responsibility above all others. Even now, my sis-ters honor that example by serving the children of their communities.

I know that my mother is watch-ing this on television and crying her eyes out. (Laughter.) So are my sisters, who have supported me in every step I have ever taken. I only wish that my father were here to see this today. I also wish that we hadn’t taught my older daughter to be so adventurous that she would be hiking in the mountains, out of cell service range -- (laughter) -- when the President called. (Laughter.)

It was the sense of responsibil-ity to serve a community, instilled by my parents, that led me to leave my law firm to become a line pros-ecutor in 1989. There, one of my first assignments was to assist in the prosecution of a violent gang that had come down to the District from New York, took over a pub-lic housing project and terrorized the residents. The hardest job we faced was persuading mothers and grandmothers that if they testified, we would be able to keep them safe and convict the gang members. We succeeded only by convincing wit-nesses and victims that they could trust that the rule of law would pre-vail.

Years later, when I went to Oklahoma City to investigate the bombing of the Federal Building, I saw up close the devastation that can happen when someone aban-dons the justice system as a way of resolving grievances, and instead takes matters into his own hands. Once again, I saw the importance of assuring victims and families that the justice system could work. We promised that we would find the perpetrators, that we would bring them to justice, and that we would do it in a way that honored the Con-stitution. The people of Oklahoma City gave us their trust, and we did everything we could to live up to it.

Trust that justice will be done in our courts without prejudice or partisanship is what, in a large part, distinguishes this country from oth-ers. People must be confident that a judge’s decisions are determined by the law, and only the law. For a

judge to be worthy of such trust, he or she must be faithful to the Consti-tution and to the statutes passed by the Congress. He or she must put aside his personal views or prefer-ences, and follow the law -- not make it.

Fidelity to the Constitution and the law has been the cornerstone of my professional life, and it’s the hallmark of the kind of judge I have tried to be for the past 18 years. If the Senate sees fit to confirm me to the position for which I have been nominated today, I promise to con-tinue on that course.

Mr. President, it’s a great privi-lege to be nominated by a fellow Chicagoan. I am grateful beyond words for the honor you have be-stowed upon me. (Applause.)

In order to be DASH-certified, after school programs must limit screen time, serve fruits or vegeta-bles as a snack daily; serve no fried foods, candy, sugary, high-sodium foods or foods with transfats. Pref-erence is given for the serving of water, but limited quantities of non-fat, low-fat milk or 100 per-cent fruit juice are allowed. The program also requires 30 minutes to an hour of exercise a day and staff training on healthy eating and physical activity standards.

Ted R. Moore, president and CEO,

Police Chief Ken Corney

VENTURA, CA - Dis-trict Attorney Gregory D. Totten announced that the Ventura County District Attorney’s Office, together with the Riverside, Los Angeles, Fresno, and San-ta Cruz District Attorney’s Offices, have jointly filed a civil law enforcement ac-tion against Corona-based TRM Manufacturing, Inc., and La Mirada-based Unit-ed Polymers Inc. (UPI), for false advertising, un-fair business practices, and violations of prior in-junctions. Ted R. Moore, president and CEO of both corporations, and Ted R. Moore II, vice president of TRM, have both been charged in the complaint.

The complaint alleges that since 2013, the defen-dants sold and distributed more than 25,000 packages of polyethylene and plastic products that were incorrectly labeled in violation of the California Fair Packaging and Labeling Act, and in violation of prior court orders. TRM and UPI products have been available for pur-chase by consumers at Home Depot stores in California.

In 2013, TRM and UPI were subject to a perma-nent injunction after thousands of packages of plastic products were found to be short measure and failed to conform to packaging and labeling laws. Previously, TRM was the subject of three additional injunctions for similar violations.

On March 10, officers from the Oxnard Police De-partment Special Enforcement Unit were patrolling in the area of the 400 block of West Esplanade Rd. in the City of Oxnard. Officers observed a blue Ford Mus-tang driving recklessly in the Home Depot parking lot. The vehicle was being driven by 20 year-old Oxnard resident, Eloy Magana. Magana was observed doing “doughnuts” dangerously close to a large crowd that had gathered in the parking lot. As the officers attempt-ed to contact Magana, Magana exited his car and was seen attempting to discard a loaded handgun. Magana was subsequently arrested for possessing a loaded fire-arm in public and booked into the Ventura County Jail.

OXNARD -- The Ocean View School District was honored as a Health Cham-pion by the Ventura County Board of Supervisors at its regular meeting today in Ventura. The Oxnard-based district was recognized for its Healthy Habits initia-tive, which encourages employees to have an an-nual preventative visit with their health care provider. The campaign, which of-fered gift cards to employ-ees who receive an annual preventive visit, had a dra-matic impact. Prior to the Healthy Habits program, only 29 percent of district employees were having an-nual preventive visits, but that number more than dou-bled thanks to the initiative.

Healthy Habits enjoyed the support of the school ad-ministration and the teacher’s union. Assistant Superinten-dent of Business Services Mi-chele Hellewell and Heather Rhodes of the Ocean View Educators’ Association joined forces to make the campaign a success. They say the gift card incentive created a buzz among employees that great-ly increased participation.

The Ocean View School District is one of seven lo-cal education agencies that receive employee health benefits through the Coastal Schools Employee Benefits Organization (CSEBO), which is based at the Ven-tura County Office of Edu-cation administrative office in Camarillo. By bringing

multiple districts together, CSEBO is able to secure lower insurance rates and reduce administrative costs. The program seeks to re-duce “avoidable” healthcare expenses from preventable conditions, according to CSEBO Executive Direc-tor Elizabeth Atilano. “We are thrilled to see that Ocean View School District is pro-moting employee health and helping reduce health-care costs by encouraging preventative care visits that catch medical conditions early,” she said.

SANTA BARBARA -- An international music icon who has won 10 Grammy Awards and influenced multiple generations of art-ists over her 40-year-career, Chaka Khan will grace the stage at the Santa Barbara County Fair as part of the Bud Light Concert Series.

Fairgoers will have the chance to see Chaka Khan for the price of an admis-sion ticket at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, July 14, 2016, on the KCOY Main Stage.

Getting her start on the music scene in the 1970s as the 18-year-old lead singer of the multiracial band Rufus, today she is an international music icon with the rare ability to per-form in eight music genres including, R&B, jazz, pop, rock, gospel, country, clas-sical and dance music.

Santa Maria Fairpark CEO Richard Persons said fair representatives are ex-cited to present a perform-er of her caliber.

“Chaka Kahn is just iconic. She has a solid voice; a long, storied career and she’s a favorite with Santa Barbara County audiences. We’re really pleased to have her performing at the fair this year,” Persons said.

In addition to her Gram-my Awards, Chaka Khan has racked up 10 No. 1 Billboard magazine charted songs, 8 RIAA certified gold singles and 11 RIAA certified gold and platinum albums.

She’s known for her solo

hits, “I’m Every Woman,” “I Feel For You,” “This is My Night” and “Through the Fire,” as well as songs like “Tell Me Something Good” and “Ain’t Nobody” that she performed while lead singer of the band Rufus.

She is the recipient of numerous awards for her extraordinary achievements in music and entertainment, including a star on the Hol-lywood Walk of Fame, a BET Lifetime Achieve-ment Award, induction into the Apollo Legends Hall of Fame and the Hollywood Bowl Hall of Fame, a Soul Train Legend Award and a street named after her in Chicago (her hometown):

“Chaka Khan Way.”She has also received

numerous awards for vari-ous humanitarian efforts. In 1999, she established the Chaka Khan Founda-tion, which includes a va-riety of programs and ini-tiatives that assist women and children at risk.

Chaka Kahn’s perfor-mance at the Santa Barba-ra County Fair is free with admission.

The fair takes place July 13-17, 2016, at the Santa Maria Fairpark. Regular admission is still only $10.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear owner-ship of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bid-der at the auction, you are or may be responsi-ble for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are en-couraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contact-ing the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the prop-erty. NOTICE TO PROP-ERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pur-suant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postpone-ments be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if appli-cable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 916.939.0772 for in-formation regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www.qualityloan.com , using the file number as-signed to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-14-628714-AB . Information about postponements that are very short in du-ration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the tele-phone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify post-ponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incor-rectness of the property address or other com-mon designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, di-rections to the location of the property may be ob-tained by sending a writ-ten request to the ben-eficiary within 10 days of the date of first publica-tion of this Notice of Sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the success-ful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of mon-ies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. If the sale is set aside for any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be en-titled only to a return of the deposit paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee, or the Mortgagee’s Attorney.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear owner-ship of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bid-der at the auction, you are or may be responsi-ble for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are en-couraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contact-ing the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the prop-erty. NOTICE TO PROP-ERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pur-suant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code.

The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee, or the Mortgagee’s Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may

NOTICE TO POTEN-TIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bid-ding on a lien, not on the property itself. Plac-ing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear owner-ship of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bid-der at the auction, you are or may be responsi-ble for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are en-couraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contact-ing the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the prop-erty. NOTICE TO PROP-ERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pur-suant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postpone-ments be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if ap-plicable, the resched-uled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (800) 758 - 8052 or visit this Internet Web site WWW.HOME-SEARCH.COM, using the file number assigned to this case 035754-CA. Information about post-ponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone infor-mation or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust, to pay the remain-ing principal sums of the note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust. The to-tal amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation secured by the property to be sold and reason-able estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is: $573,453.79 If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclu-sive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the suc-cessful bidder shall have no further recourse. The beneficiary under said Deed of Trust heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a writ-ten Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located. NOTICE TO POTEN-TIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bid-ding on a lien, not on the property itself. Plac-ing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear owner-ship of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bid-der at the auction, you are or may be responsi-ble for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are en-couraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contact-ing the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the prop-erty. NOTICE TO PROP-ERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pur-suant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postpone-ments be made avail-able to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the re-scheduled time and date for the sale of this prop-erty, you may call (800) 280-2832 or visit this In-ternet Web site WWW.AUCTION.COM, using the file number assigned to this case 013588-CA. Information about post-ponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone infor-mation or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear owner-ship of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bid-der at the auction, you are or may be responsi-ble for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are en-couraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contact-ing the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the prop-erty. NOTICE TO PROP-ERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pur-suant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postpone-ments be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if appli-cable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 888-988-6736 for in-formation regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www.qualityloan.com , using the file number as-signed to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-15-689213-CL . Information about postponements that are very short in du-ration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the tele-phone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify post-ponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incor-rectness of the property address or other com-mon designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, di-rections to the location of the property may be ob-tained by sending a writ-ten request to the ben-eficiary within 10 days of the date of first publica-tion of this Notice of Sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the success-ful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of mon-ies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. If the sale is set aside for any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be en-titled only to a return of the deposit paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee, or the Mortgagee’s Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to ex-ercise the note holders right’s against the real property only. As required by law, you are hereby notified that a negative credit report reflecting on your credit record may be submitted to a credit report agency if you fail to fulfill the terms of your credit obligations.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien be-ing auctioned off may be

a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of out-standing liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county re-corder’s office or a title insurance company, ei-ther of which may charge you a fee for this informa-tion. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pur-suant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postpone-ments be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if appli-cable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (714) 848-9272 or or visit this Internet Web site www.elitepostandpub.com, using the file num-ber assigned to this case 14-30948. Information about postponements that are very short in du-ration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immedi-ately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement in-formation is to attend the scheduled sale.Dated: 3/14/2016 L a w Offices of Les Zieve, as Trustee 30 Corporate Park, Suite 450Irvine, CA 92606For Non-Automated Sale Information, call: (714) 848-7920For Sale Information: (714) 848-9272 or www.elitepostandpub.comNatalie Franklin, Trust-ee Sale OfficerTHIS FIRM IS ATTEMPT-ING TO COLLECT A DEBT AND ANY INFOR-MATION WE OBTAINED WILL BE USED FOR THAT PURPOSE.

VACATIONFrom page 8A

5. ask for all completed agreements and liabil-ity insurance documentation before paying. Be-fore you reserve, ask to see all contract information with pricing and scheduling information filled in as well as proof of insurance on the rental property. You should understand all payment and property rules af-fecting your stay and what might happen if there is accidental damage to the property while you’re there. Share these documents with your home or rental in-surer for input before you sign. If a renter hesitates to share this information, you might want to consider other options. Also, review your personal health, property and liability coverage to make sure you’re protected during the trip.

6. Weigh all spending risks of the rental trans-action. If you’re planning to rent vacation property, take the extra step of calling your credit card and travel insurance companies to determine whether they offer any particular protections in case some-thing goes wrong with the rental. It’s a good way to review the full range of protection available to you on any out-of-town trip. And if a vacation landlord asks for advance cash payment – particularly wired money – be very cautious. Many travel scams begin with wired cash.

Bottom line: Planning an upcoming vacation? Before you commit to a vacation rental, vet the own-er and the property thoroughly.

MOUTHFrom page 9Aoral health problems may persist.

Even if you don’t meet the criteria above, your dentist can develop a treatment plan to resolve these preliminary issues before beginning reconstruction.

During your treatment, they will consider the shape, size, color, and alignment of your natural teeth in order to create as natural-looking a solution as pos-sible.

Your treatment plan and the exact methods used for your reconstruction depends on your unique needs and goals. Your dentist will discuss all options and costs with you during your visit to their office in order to find the best solution for you.

The researchers don’t know whether the protec-tive benefit would rise with increased participation in stimulating activities. “In the future, we may conduct additional analyses to see if a higher frequency is as-sociated with a better health outcome,” she said.

IRSFrom page 9A

Here’s what you should do if you receive such a call:

• Assume it’s a scam. The IRS doesn’t call people about back taxes; it’ll send you a notice by mail. If you think you might actually have unpaid taxes, call the IRS at 800-829-1040.

• Hang up the phone. Do not engage the caller in any way. Any information you provide may just mark you for more bogus calls.

• Report the incident. If you are contacted by phone, report the incident to the U.S. Treasury in-spector general for tax administration at 800-366-4484. If contacted by email, forward the message directly to the IRS at [email protected].

• Educate others. Talk to the vulnerable people in your life about the scam.

UNWINDFrom page 10Adecrease anxiety can be found below:

• Make your home a haven. Your home needs to be a place where you go to recuperate and rejuvenate for the next day. The space should be calm and har-monious.

• Take a moment. “There are thousands of ways you can relax. Whether it’s unwinding with music, reading a good book, taking a warm bath by candle-light, going for a walk or engaging in a sport you enjoy, you know what relaxation feels like and you know when it’s happening to you,” Meyer writes in OVERLOAD. “I strongly encourage you to make re-laxation a part of your daily life.”

• Use your driving time or commuting time to calm down. This may seem like an oxymoron, but you’d be surprised at how easy it is to disconnect from daily pressures or work on the car ride home. Relax by listening to an audio book or singing along to your favorite music, and, if the weather permits, roll down the windows and let the sun and breeze carry your troubles away.

TRUMPFrom page 11A

Regardless of your thoughts of Trump, he laid down his marker with the Black vote. Twenty five percent of the Black vote for Trump is not unreason-able.

I challenge my readers and members of the Re-publican Party to name me the last time you saw a Black person actually officially representing the par-ty on TV, newspaper, or radio.

When was the last time a Black was empowered to negotiate on behalf of the party an appearance be-fore a Black group like the NAACP or the National Urban League?

Trump has done more to engage with the Black community in nine months than the party has done in nine years.

Trump is the only presidential candidate that seems to think the Black vote is worth pursuing. He has verbally asked Blacks to vote for him; he has hired Blacks in extremely high-level positions; and he has showcased Blacks on stage with him on mul-tiple occasions.

When was the last time you saw a Black with

credibility in the Black community on stage with any Republican leader?

Republicans showcase more Black Democrats than they do Black Republicans.

So, before the party establishment throws Trump to the side, maybe, just maybe, that should look at what he is doing right.

If Donald Trump is a racist, then maybe the Re-publican Party needs to become more racist.

CAMPAIGNFrom page 11Aof times? Doing what she did just one time would get all other Americans a little time in jail. Can she walk away clean? Will this macabre have a happy ending?

With the rejection of Hillary Clinton the other Republican candidates may see a big opportunity. If Senators Rubio and Cruz would cooperate with each other perhaps they could take Trump down. Imagine two Cubans becoming President and Vice President on the same ticket. Candidate Governor John Kasich may also suddenly rise.

Right now Senator Rubio has a big problem. When he and Senator Cruz tried to trip up Trump in the last couple of debates it appeared that he was hav-ing a meltdown. He appeared to be a person who was going delirious. He has continued this assault on Trump and it appears to negatively reflect on his chances of leading in the race. He has fallen back to third place behind Trump and Cruz and John Kasich is starting to grow.

This season is indeed unique to all others. I am excited and depressed at the same time. Is this actu-ally the best we can do for leadership? My prayer is that America will select a person who is capable and committed to the betterment of our nation.

WALKERFrom page 11Aline which, as of March 4, is exclusively available at the Sephora cosmetics stores. I’ve not tried the prod-ucts yet, but I can’t wait to shampoo my hair with a little bit of history, with a product that derives from the formulas of Madam C.J. Walker.

The Madam C.J. Walker story takes on a special significance in these economic times. You may have heard that there has been an economic recovery, but if you are like most people in these United States, you haven’t felt it. Incomes have hardly risen since 2009, when our current President took office. Not his fault – but that’s not the point. The point is that too many people are hurting, and some of the pain is joblessness.

Barriers to employment entry are high, especial-ly for some young African Americans who, despite similar qualifications to their White counterparts, take much longer to find meaningful and remunera-tive work. If the labor market won’t absorb these young people, African American entrepreneurs, the inheritors of Madam C.J. Walker, must. Where is the business leader who can create tens of thousands of sales agents and provide entrepreneurship opportuni-ties for so many?

African American women are increasingly likely to take up the mantle of Madam C.J. Walker and start businesses. Younger women, especially, are moti-vated by job markets that they perceive to be unwel-coming. While our colleges teach some educational fundamentals, they ought also be encouraged to teach entrepreneurship. If job market continues to generate an official Black unemployment rate of around ten percent, and an employment population ratio of sixty percent (which means that just 60 percent of the adult population is working – it is closer to 70 percent for whites, then the need for black entrepreneurs is criti-cal. In the name of Madam C.J. Walker, let’s keep our entrepreneurial gene thriving!

CARSONFrom page 11Athinking clearly about the important issues of the day. At best, he would have a chance as President to deep-ly influence those values through using the political pulpit to guide the country in the right direction. And so he decided to take the risk, knowing full well that his chances of victory were seemingly slim.

But the other thing that Carson did throughout the campaign was maintain an even keel. He never got too far up when he led in the polls, and never got too down when he trailed. He certainly never allowed his status in the election polls to cause him to waiver in his mes-sage. He believed, and continues to believe that we are facing a crisis of values that threatens the very fabric of our country. The effects of that crisis are born out in the critical issues America is facing – political impasse in which people don’t listen to someone else merely because of a political label; a burgeoning and unsus-tainable national debt that has grown out of our inabil-ity (in the world’s most wealthy nation) to live within our means; and a breakdown in our global leadership driven by a reversion to political correctness rather than truth in our discourse.

Throughout his campaign, Carson constantly came back to these issues. He never engaged in the mud-slinging, character assassination or dirty politi-cal tricks that have come to typify a serious run for the top office in the land. He is just too good of a man for that. He cares too deeply about our country to get dragged down into gutter politics for the sake of ex-pediency. He knows full well that you can turn a loss into an ultimate win by the character with which you play the game. And for bringing that set of values to the public sphere – where they are sorely lacking at present – Dr. Ben Carson is to be highly commended.
