NORCO– Several thousand young female soccer players descended on SilverLakes, the newly minted 130-acre soccer facility in Norco, California, for the three day SilverLakes’ College Soccer Showcase, November 25-27, 2016. The young athletes participating in this signature event hoped to seize the rare opportunity to have their athletic prowess assessed by college coaches from around the United States. The annual College Soccer Showcase is focused on welcoming college coaches as well as U.S. Soccer youth national team scouts, to evaluate the skills and abilities of aspiring young female soccer players as they look to earn scholarship offers and invitations to attend U.S. youth National Team camps. More than 2,500 players from more than 140 teams, including some of the top clubs from the Western Region, were on-hand for this unique event.  A highlight of the showcase was an All Star Game between the Canadian Whitecaps and USA All Stars.

“We are incredibly excited to host this first-of-its-kind showcase event for young women at SilverLakes. The participation by high-level coaches throughout the country, including among others, Stanford, Texas A&M, Cornell, North Western, UCLA, Cal Berkeley and the thousands of young women was incredible to see. It is often difficult for youth players looking to take their game to the next level to gain access to key coaches who will enable them to fully realize their abilities and play at the collegiate level. Our first annual College Soccer Showcase has already succeeded in providing this access and it is our hope that this experience will be a ‘game changer’ for these young people,” said R.J. Brandes, President, SilverLakes.

As SilverLakes continues to build a full offering of programs and events to fulfill its mission to empower young athletes to reach their full plans to add an event for men’s soccer in the near future.  The competition for more than $2.7 billion in athletics scholarships granted annually by the NCAA Divisions I and II schools is extremely competitive and often comes down to demonstrating an athlete’s skill to a select few, and hard to access, coaches and recruiters. SilverLakes hopes to tear down the barriers for student athletes by convening showcase events, such as the November 25-27, 2016 opportunity.

 

Meet Me at In N Out

Pastor Mark Hopper

Pastor Mark Hopper

By Mark Hopper

One of my favorite lunch spots is In N Out Burger.  The prices are right and the food is great.  I love their burgers, fries and chocolate shakes too!

Recently I arranged to meet a guy for lunch to discuss a project he was working on.  He works down in Orange County so we decided to meet somewhere half way between his office and my office in Diamond Bar.

I suggested we meet at In N Out on Chapman Avenue.  He agreed.  It seemed like a simple and clear plan.

However, did you know there are actually two Chapman Avenues in Orange County?  One Chapman Avenue is in Fullerton near the campus of Cal State Fullerton just west of the 57 Freeway.

The other Chapman Avenue is in the city of Orange and extends from west of the 57 Freeway to east of the 55 Freeway.

And, to make matters worse, there are In N Out Burgers on both Chapman Avenues!

I’m sure that you already know what happened.  I drove from my office down the 57 Freeway to the In N Out by the Cal State Campus.  My friend drove from his office to the In N Out restaurant which is on the Chapman Avenue that is east of the 55 Freeway.

He was looking for me and I was waiting for him.  Both of us were on time and both of us were at In N Out Burger, but we were miles apart at different locations.

I was thankful that we both had our cell phones with us.  He called wondering where I was and I told him that I was looking for him too.

When we realized what happened, I jumped back into my car and drove to the location where he was waiting.  We enjoyed our time together and the good food, too.

I wonder if this happens in other areas of life.  Married couples think they have reached an agreement on something only to find out that their spouse had a different plan in mind.

I’m sure this happens in business too.  A supplier may think he is correctly filling an order from a customer,  but the customer may have actually requested a different size or product.

There can be misunderstanding and miscommunication in many areas of our lives.  We need to be clear and specific when agreeing on a plan of action.

Let me encourage you to be clear in what you say and clarify what you think others have said.  Effective communication is vital in every area of our lives.

I wonder if there is an In N Out “app” that I can add to my phone so that the next time I make a important  lunch appointment I will know where I am going?

Tips from Deputy Myers

Deputy Myers

Deputy Myers

Dear Deputy Myers:

Holiday time safety reminders…

 

During the holidays we often travel or spend several hours away from our homes shopping and visiting loved ones. While you are away, keep some simple tips in mind to keep your household safe in your absence. It all starts with the simple stuff such as locking your doors and windows as well as setting your house alarm if you have one. Then there are a few extra things to keep in mind, close blinds or window coverings and keep gifts out of view from windows so as not to entice would be criminals into your home.

 

While you are enjoying the company of friends and family at your home, there are a few things to remember about unannounced visitors. Criminals can pose as couriers delivering gifts to try and get you to open the door. There are also those that try and prey upon the giving season and go door to door looking for donations for charities that do not actually exist. In this case I have a few suggestions, make sure to ask for identification and find out what the funds will be used for or don’t give to individuals at all. That doesn’t mean don’t give to legitimate charities, by all means please do, but do it on your terms to organizations that you choose on your terms.

 

Holiday time is also a great opportunity to take the time to inventory your home. Whether you decide to video the items in your home, take photos, or write lists of items with serial numbers; it is a good time to make note of your valuables. This list can be used in the future to amend insurance policies, to make sure everything is covered in the event of a loss, or just to have peace of mind knowing what items you have. We never wish that you become a victim of theft or damage, but it makes recovering items or replacing items much easier if you know what you had to begin with.

 

Lastly, after all the unwrapping of gifts, we tend to take large item boxes and just shove them in a recycling bin or trash can. This can be a huge flag to criminals letting them know exactly what is now inside your home. Take the extra time to break down boxes completely and place them in garbage bags so they are not easily seen inside your trash bins. Some criminals have been known to check out your garbage to see what you have and then target your home for those items a few days or weeks later. Ultimately, we at the Sheriff’s Department wish you the very best this holiday season and want you to be safe and informed.

 

Deanna Myers is the Volunteer and Programs Coordinator for the Jurupa Valley Station of the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department that services the Eastvale Police Department.  She has been with the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department for about eight years, and most recently was assigned to patrol within the City of Eastvale before moving into her current position where she is in charge of the Neighborhood Watch program for the City of Eastvale.

Ask Clark’s

I heard that calcium causes heart disease, is that true?

A Question from an anonymous reader

By Clark’s Nutrition

Calcium consumption from foods and supplementation has become somewhat controversial in the last few years. Osteoporosis prevention has centered on the consumption of calcium from foods and supplementation. Recently, (in October 2016) the Journal of the American Heart Association (JAHA) released a research article that suggested higher consumption of calcium from supplementation might increase the risk of coronary artery calcification (also known as CAC). The information contained in this article helped many individuals see a different view of calcium supplementation. Although it is important to note the JAHA study also suggested that total atherosclerosis was less with individuals who consumed more total calcium via foods and supplementation but suggested the food group was best.  There are also some other responses have come out in support of calcium supplementation. The National Osteoporosis Foundation and American Society for Preventive Cardiology convened an expert panel to look at research to determine other positions for calcium supplementation. These two groups concluded that supplemental calcium with or without vitamin D have no relationship either good or bad to the risk of cardiovascular disease and cerebralvascular disease mortality. They also found that generally there was no cause of mortality in healthy adults when using calcium supplementation. They also recommend that individuals consume no more than the upper daily limits for calcium at 2000-2500mg per day including foods and supplementation. Additionally the NOF suggested that calcium is a nutrient that is lacking in many individuals. Although there is a lot of negative press about the use of calcium, the Council for Responsible Nutrition also reported that the American Heart Association’s Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis suggests that there is proof of safety in supplementation because of the positive association with total calcium consumption and reduction in lower rates of atherosclerosis. As always, if you have any questions about the use of supplementation, please consult with your doctor before using any products.

Tips to Keep Your Family Healthy and Happy this Winter

By StatePoint  did-you-know-web

With colder weather comes an increase in weather-related illness and health issues. From activity levels to mood, diet and more, seasonal weather affects all areas of your life. But, don’t let the winter blues get you down — follow these tips to help keep your family healthy and happy during the cold-weather months.

“Winterize” Your Diet

Some fresh fruits and veggies can be hard to find in winter. The Cleveland Clinic suggests turning to root vegetables like beets, carrots and turnips since they can withstand cold temperatures, making them easier to find. Also on their list of suggested foods are oatmeal, soup (without a lot of salt), sushi, broccoli and cauliflower — all of which provide essential nutrients to support immunity and boost vitamin levels.

Also, be sure to work vitamin D into your system. It aids bone health and muscle strength, but during shorter, cloudy days of winter, you might not get the necessary amount you need. Harvard School of Public Health recommends daily 15-minute walks outside to get some sun, and eating vitamin D-rich foods such as dairy products, breakfast cereals and fish like salmon and tuna. You may also consider a supplement.

Keep Moving

Studies show that daily exercise and activity offer immune-boosting benefits. People who exercise 30 to 45 minutes a day experience a 40 to 50 percent reduction in the number of days they get sick, according to studies at Appalachian State University’s Human Performance Lab.

Encourage the family to get active with step or fitness trackers. Daily or weekly step goals and challenges with siblings or spouses are fun ways to keep everyone moving. FitBit, Garmin and Jawbone all make trackers with corresponding mobile apps to help monitor goals.

And, when cabin fever sets in, grab the kids and head outside. Cold weather activities nearby or on a trip away, such as sledding, skiing and snowboarding, can offer additional exercise outside the normal indoor routine.

Always be Prepared

When the weather gets cold, the risk of certain illnesses like cold and flu rise. What’s in your feel-better-fast kit when your family gets sick? Items that doctors recommend to have when a cold or the flu hits include: pain and fever relief (ibuprofen, acetaminophen), tissues, fluids (especially cool water), soup and tea, throat lozenges and a digital temperature monitor.

Instead of waking young children to get accurate temperature readings with a digital thermometer, consider picking up TempTraq the next time you’re at Target, CVS or Walgreens. It’s a wearable, Bluetooth monitor that safely and continuously senses, records and transmits body temperature for 24 hours through its free TempTraq app. You can even receive fever alerts so you can eliminate poking or prodding kids in the middle of the night, providing peace of mind for you and much needed rest for them during sick days.

For a happy and healthy winter, use these tips to inspire your family to eat right, get active and be prepared for colder weather.

By Jennifer Stephensonerhs-xc-1-fold-erhs-boys

Eastvale-For the first time in school history, the ERHS Boys Cross Country team qualified for the CIF State Championships! Fresh from Thanksgiving, the boys and their coaches and families headed up to Fresno to compete with the best in the state.

Eastvale City Council Election Results

Staff Reports

Eastvale – The first casualty of “district voting” claimed its first victim last month as Brandon Plott from District 5 edged out Mayor Ike Bootsma to represent that particular area.

Other than the pressing Federal and State elections on the ballot this Tuesday, the City of Eastvale had three council seats up for election, where eight residents vied for seats of the newly formed Districts 1, 2, and 5.

District 1 saw Todd Rigby earning a spot while District 2 showed Joe Tessari kept his seat beating out his competitor.

District 1 encompasses the north east side of Eastvale, from Cloverdale through the Ontario border. Todd Rigby beat Mario Marroquin for District 1 City Council Seat, lasting a partial term of two years,

Contrary to district 1, City Council Seats of Districts 2 and 5 will last a full term of four years, 2017-2021.

District 2 encompasses the mid to north side of Eastvale, zigzagging from Schleisman, Scholar Way, through Citrus, Harrison, and Chandler, ending by River Road at the Corona border. Joseph Tessari will serve an additional term for District 2 City Council Seat.

The final district up for election, District 5, covers the west side of Walnut from Archibald Ave to the Chino border.

Ike Bootsma, who is retired, was a current councilman and Mayor of Eastvale, lost to Brandon Plott.

After growing concerns about the at-large voting process, Eastvale City Council approved Resolution No. 16-09 in April earlier this year, initiating the by-district voting process carried out for the first time in Eastvale on Tuesday. A by-district election system requires City Council candidates to reside in the District they are vying to represent and can only be voted on by residents of that specified district.

Many California cities have converted from at-large voting systems to by-district in order to ensure representation of minority populations within cities. The California Voting Rights Act prohibits an at-large voting system that is capable of influencing the outcome of an election, or reduces the possibility of a class to elect their choice of candidate.  In 2004, the city of Modesto’s voting system was challenged under the Act, resulting in the initiation of a by-district voting system and a cascade of other charges against cities throughout California, mostly coming from Southern California.

Switching to a by-district meant carving district lines throughout the City of Eastvale. Both four and five district maps were proposed to city council, which chose a five district representation. In June 2016, the City Council chose the final 5 district map out of three options proposed. More details about the conversion from an at-large election system to a by-district can be found at http://www.eastvaleca.gov.

EPC Approves Costco Project

By City of Eastvale

EASTVALE, CA – The City of Eastvale is proud to announce that Costco, the nationally famous membership “warehouse” store chain will be opening in the city. The Eastvale Planning Commission unanimously (4-0) approved the Costco project at its meeting on Wednesday, November 16, 2016.

“Costco is coming to Eastvale!” said City Manager Michele Nissen. “We are very pleased to be adding this new shopping opportunity for our residents, and to welcome Costco to our city.”

Today’s announcement followed the approval by the Eastvale Planning Commission of a project that includes:

  • A 158,000-square-foot retail warehouse,
  • Upto a 30-position gasoline fueling station, and
  • A state-of-the-art self-service car wash, among the first of its kind in California for Costco.

The Commission also approved Costco’s operation of a tire center and the sale of alcoholic beverages. The chain is known for its selection of fine wines and spirits.

According to City Manager Nissen, retail sales at the Costco store are conservatively estimated to add more than $1-million annually to the City’s coffers in the form of sales taxes.

Costco Director of Real Estate Jenifer Murillo, who spoke to the Eastvale Planning Commission on behalf of the project, praised the work of City staff, who worked closely with both Costco and Goodman, the developer of the retail in which Costco is located, to address and resolve a number of issues. “This was the fastest process we’ve ever been through,” said Murillo, who manages the development of Costco stores in several western states.

A message from Superintendent Wayne M. Joseph

BY CVUSD

The holiday season is the time of year we all take time to pause and count the numerous blessings in our lives. This is never more important than this year in which recent events have underscored the seething anger and frustration of many of our fellow American citizens. The time has come therefore, for us to reflect upon the positive occurrences that have affected us.

For me, it has been heartening to witness, these past twenty three months, the spirit of cooperation throughout the Chino Valley as my team and I met to discuss the facilities needs in our District. This time was especially gratifying in that it reaffirmed how vital and robust our schools are and how they continue to be a top priority for our community.

No matter the outcome and final results of Measure G, let us never doubt or question this community’s commitment to its schools and its children.

I hope that you will have some moments to reflect over this past year as well, and may the magic that is so prevalent this time of year permeate your lives and that of your families.

I wish all of you a very safe and prosperous holiday season.

Wayne M. Joseph, Superintendent

Every winter I struggle with a sore throat about ten times- A letter from Gus

Danice Akiyoshi

By Danice Akiyoshi N.D.

Q: Every winter I struggle with a sore throat about ten times.  I’m tired of being on antibiotics so often.  Do you know of a natural remedy?  My grandma told me to drink tequila, lemon juice and honey, but I can do that before work.

A: Yes, I understand your hesitancy about drinking tequila before going to work.  What I choose for my family and myself is 8 drops of Cayenne Pepper tincture in about three or four ounces of juice.  Drink it quickly.  Your throat will burn, but it will be well worth it.

Artist Corner

“KEEP believINK ” –Tomas Rodriguez  artist-believink

By Racine Guajardo

Tomas Rodriguez is a 33 year old Mexican who was born in Durango, Mexico. Rodriguez came to California when he was 15 years old. As far as back as Rodriguez can remember he says, “Always been into art of any type, I have been drawing to keep my mind quiet.”

Technology and the Internet have opened the opportunity for people to search just about anything, so Rodriguez says, “I discovered tattooing by accident one day, buying a set up online and tattooing myself. I knew right then that this was my calling on life. And it would be my way to help people with this positive energy.”

As a spiritual person, Rodriguez talks about his influences, saying, “I have had a few spiritual teachers during my life, that help me find myself as a person and as an artist, always wanting to give back.”

Some people may get a tattoo because they think it’s cool or it’s a style that’s popular; however Rodriguez says, “I started a positive movement about tattooing, changing people’s minds about the art and the importance of decorating our bodies with permanent ink. To always believe in the reasons behind the tattoo.”

There are many different styles in tattooing, Rodriguez says, “I concentrate on my realistic black and gray, I believe that’s deep within my roots and honoring my ancestors.”  Also saying, “Just the way I see each and every tattoo I do, putting 100% of my energy and love into the piece, always doing my prayers before each tattoo behind scenes.”

When Rodriguez was asked if he could give advice, he said, “This is the easiest question for me.  DO WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY, it doesn’t matter if people around you think you can’t do it or that it’s not important at all or that you’re not supposed to do this or that. JUST DO WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY.”

Believink Art Studio is located at 401 E. 10th Street Gilroy, CA 95020. Rodriguez also travels all over the states and as well as out of the country for conventions. He will be attending the Golden State Tattoo Expo from January 27th-29th in Pasadena, CA next year.
