Story and Photos by Pat Krause The ANA Inspiration Tournament just made history with the first-ever call to play because of darkness. It was a thrilling four hole game playoff on Sunday where they had to add lighting on the green to finish the last playoff hole.

Both players tied again in the darkness. A fan favorite

Jennifer Song lost on the third playoff hole when she missed her putt. Both Inbee Park and Pernilla Lindberg nodded OK when asked if they wanted to try to play one last hole before it got dark.

Fans noticed a man atop a light pole to turn on the lights so players could see the green on the fourth playoff

hole. When the sun goes down behind the mountains and the big tent by the 18th green, darkness comes fast.

Photographers were worried about getting a photo of the famous jump into Poppies Pond in the dark. The light on the green made a surreal picture of the players putting.

And then play had to be

suspended because it was too dark on the fairway to see the ball and play was resumed on Monday morning at 8 AM. The WINNER was finally chosen on Monday morning.

Pernilla Lindberg made her first PGA major win. It took another four playoff holes on Monday to determine a winner. They played numbers

10,17,18 and back to 10. It was the second time on 17 that finally produced a winner when Inbee Park missed her putt and Lindberg made her putt for a birdie. Fans showed they wanted to see this when the grandstand was full, and there was an Continues on Page 11

Story and Photos by Pat Krause The ANA held its annual ANA Jr.s and Legends Tournament again this year at Mission Hills Country Club before the ANA LPGA tournament. The Jr winner of this tournament gets an exemption to play in the ANA LPGA Inspiration Tournament.

Young women golfers come from all over to try to win and get to play in the big

tournament, The First LPGA Major of the Year, with the Pros.

Members of the American Junior Golf Association come from all over the world.

The event was expanded this year to accommodate more players. Each team played on Saturday. On Sunday each group was paired with a Legendary LPGA Pro. Rose Zhang won the tournament with a birdie on the 18th

green on Sunday. Her playing pro was the 1996 Champion Patty Sheehan. Zhang said that playing with Sheehan was surreal and fantastic.

Zhang noted Sheehan was very supportive, played great golf and kept everyone calm.

The winner got to jump into Poppies Pond just like the Pro Winner of the event.

Pattie Sheehan was her playing partner and got to jump

into Poppies Pond with Zhang.

Sheehan made the most of the jump by swimming around and diving to the bottom with her legs in the air. It was a thrill for both of them. The ANA, All Nippon Airways, has made the first major of the year a most prestigious event. They took over when Kraft Nabisco left the tournament. Making the Leap into Poppies Pond is the dream of all LPGA lady golfers.

Each pairing held two players and one Pro. Zhang said it meant the world to her to win her first AJGA invitational and she is only 14. Her dream of becoming a Pro just took another step forward. She will be a great role model for other young junior golfers. I am sure we will be hearing from this young woman in the years to come.

Story and Photos by Pat Krause The Final speaker for Desert Town Hall was Chris Wallace on March 28th.

Desert Town Hall has had some fantastic speakers again this year. Michael Hayden and John Scarlett on Jan. 19th, Mark Kelley and Gabby Gifford on Feb. 23rd and that beautiful Caroline Kennedy on March 8th. That is an excellent lineup for any event. Each event starts with a Desert Youth Town Hall where local high school kids get to ask the question of the speaker. The fact is presented by the H.N. and Frances C. Berger Foundation.

Quinton Egson from Boys and Girls Club spoke to the students before

Chris Wallace talking and said the best thing he learned was to love everyone regardless of color or creed.

Chris Wallace spoke to over 100 kids from all the local high schools. They are served a meal and told to ask candid and thought out questions. Chris Wallace is the host of Fox News Sunday and the son of veteran newsman Mike Wallace. Kids asked Wallace what he would do if he were not a journalist. He answered, it was the only thing he wanted to do and was good at. He said he was not very good at anything else and that brought laughter from the kids. Wallace said that he was not able to ask these intelligent

questions at their age. He remarked that most of the issues were excellent ones.

He told the kids they should embrace the wave of the future and not the past. He said he was proud of today’s children that are taking part in the political process. He noted that today kids should stay involved to make a difference.

It was up to the kids to decide what to believe, not what they see or hear but to make up their own mind intelligently.

Wallace then went to the Emerald Ballroom at the Renaissance Esmeralda Resort and Spa for his remarks to a sold-out audience. This Speakers Series is always sold out.

Wallace spoke to the crowd

for about 40 minutes. He said his father was a reporter of the people and was a great role model. He made remarks for and against the political process and what is going on with the media. He commented on the President and his tweets and how the press is going after him.

He said he felt like a cub reporter most of the time as things change in minutes.

He ended with saying he thinks President Trump has done a Hell of a job. He said for all the sound and fury the President has been very successful so far.

Brian Harnik moderated the Q&A with questions written by the audience.

Wallace said the FBI tried to

exonerate Hillary Clinton and there is no hard evidence of Russian meddling. When he mentioned Nancy Pelosi the whole crowd Booed. He was asked who would be a frontrunner in 2020, but Wallace didn’t really have any names that stand out at this time. He said he was so worried as a moderator for the debates but after a few minutes would not want to be anywhere else. He hopes that in the discussions for 2020 he will be asked to do it again. He feels Fox News is fundamentally Fair and Balanced. Fake news is an enemy of the people, and all reporters should live up to their responsibility to report the news accurately.

Disability Insurance Protects Your Financial Future

By Janice Gough For those who are working SDI or State Disability Insurance is vital to have if you cannot work. Everyone who works for a living is familiar with what can happen if they lose their wages. On the other hand, the possibility of severe disability is a risk, which few seem to consider.

How likely is it that you will become severely disabled?

According to one study, 30 percent of all Americans between the ages of 35 and 65 suffered a disability lasting at least 90 days. The risk is

real. The question is, “What to do about it? Unless this is a benefit provided by your employer, many people will not be covered other than State Disability Insurance (SDI). And to qualify for Social Security disability, the definition of “disability” is so strict that, in 2017, only 35.2 percent of initial claims for Social Security disability benefits were accepted.

Obviously, something beyond Social Security is needed.

State Disability plans (SDI) are based on “Any occupation definition,” meaning that to qualify for benefits, one cannot perform any duties of any job. Private plans terms of qualification are different, whereas an “Own occupation” definition will provide benefits if one cannot perform substantial and material duties of their specific job.

The economic loss due to a disability of any duration can be determined as the loss of “net” earnings (subtracting taxes and personal

consumption) and includes the dollar value of employee fringe benefits, as well as the dollar value of the household services the individual could have provided. Based on these numbers, benefits for loss of income usually are 60% or more.

Group disability insurance requires simplified underwriting allowing most people to qualify easily.

Many employers will provide or make available disability insurance on a group basis.

However, even those who are covered by a group policy can still be at substantial risk.

Employer-sponsored disability policies seldom replace more than 60 percent of your monthly salary. Further, many systems have a maximum monthly benefit that may be far less than what some people earn. For any employer who wishes to hire and retain highly qualified employees, Disability Insurance provides an excellent employment incentive.

Employers may sponsor plans (such as AFLAC or Colonial etc.) which their employees purchase the coverage. These plans may offer short and long-term disability, critical illness, and hospital benefit plans. These plans are only accessible thru an employer and are not available on the open market. Just a few employees need to enroll to qualify.

By Kelly G. Richardson, Esq. CCAL While short term rentals present an opportunity for members to make a profit on their home when not in use, such rentals also present many potential problems for both the municipality and the association. Weekender occupants are more likely to be less courteous and responsible to neighbors.

Many will argue short term rentals to be “non-residential” use of the residence, more akin to a hotel. Cities may wish to limit hotel-type usage in this context, where they have no control nor collect bed tax.

Many associations amend their governing documents to ban rentals shorter than one year, ban subletting, or just specifically banning vacation short term rentals. Short term rentals are often perceived as a “non-residential” or business usage of the common interest development residence, and are therefore deemed inconsistent with most residential HOA CC&Rs. An Oxnard association of homeowners was surely quite disappointed with a Court of Appeals ruling announced on March 27, 2018 in the case of Greenfield v. Mandalay Shores. The Mandalay Shores Community Association, formed in 1959, consists of 1,465 detached home lots on public streets.

There are recorded CC&Rs but no common area. Its board of directors adopted a resolution banning rentals

shorter than 30 days. The resolution proved to be controversial, and a group reported to consist of about 60 homeowners supported a lawsuit by a homeowner named Greenfield to challenge the policy. After an adverse finding at the trial court level, Greenfield appealed.

There have been other recent legal challenges to short term rental bans in beach areas, but this appears to be the first case in which the opinion was published.

The California Coastal Act (Public Resources Code Sections 30000-30900) establishes a 1,000 yard “Coastal Zone” as a protected area for beach access (Public Resources Code 30103(a)).

This group of homes in Oxnard was within that zone.

The appellate ruling overturned the association resolution, finding that the association policy adversely affected beach access.

The opinion stated that the association would have to

seek approval from both the city and the California Coastal Commission before imposing a short term rental ban.

While the Mandalay Shores group is (according to the association) not a common interest development falling under the Davis-Stirling Act, this ruling almost certainly will impact any common interest development association which is within the 1,000 yard Coastal Zone.

Some cities, such as Hermosa Beach, have adopted ordinances banning short term rentals (30 day minimum). Hermosa Beach’s ordinance was upheld in early 2018 as valid and as not violating the Coastal Act, but that opinion was not published and so is not considered a binding legal precedent.

Another distinction is that the ruling involved a city, which has greater legal power than homeowners associations.

Common interest developments within the Coastal Zone should be

Income taxes can also be an issue; if the employer is paying the full cost of the coverage, and not including it in the employee’s income, disability benefits are fully taxable. If an employee pays for disability insurance with after-tax dollars, the benefits are received free of income tax.

High limit disability plans which may offer a highly paid employees much higher limits.

Many athletes and those in high-risk occupations will ensure their lifestyles with this umbrella of coverage.

The cost of disability plans is based on age, type of work performed, medical background and the type of policy chosen.

It is important to you and your family to ensure your future with this protection.

An analogy used to describe the need for disability insurance is to say we are not ensuring the Goose who laid the golden eggs, we are insuring the eggs. Our golden eggs are the ability to work.

We produce work every day, and income protection will save families from devastation when the primary bread earners can no longer work.

For example, the association may tighten their rules regarding resident conduct, and hold owners responsible for their tenants’ behavior.

5 Steps to Creating a Healthier Community

Mayor Pineda walking with students courtesy of Healthy West Chicago

By Desert Star Staff Obesity, with corresponding ailments such as heart disease, high cholesterol and diabetes, is a wellchronicled public health issue and has many communities looking for ways to positively impact their residents.

What can prove to have an enduring impact on improving community health is a broad coalition of stakeholders coming together to create a culture of wellness. For example, the City of West Chicago, with its Healthy West Chicago initiative, is a case study in how to galvanize a community toward collective better health.

With these modifiable tips from Mayor Ruben Pineda, other communities can work to improve the health and

quality of life for residents.

Have a champion: Every major civic initiative needs someone to drive it, someone to assemble and activate the right roster of influencers, experts and activists. Progressive leaders concerned about community sustainability and resident health, such as city council members or those in influential positions within the community, make good candidates to spearhead the plan.

Enlist partners: To improve nutrition and increase physical activity in the City of West Chicago, Mayor Pineda reached out to community leaders in local government, education, health care, social services, faith-based entities, businesses and non-profits to initiate partnerships and secure

funding to create the Healthy West Chicago Action Plan, a multi-year guide for promoting better health in the community.

Engage other community members: It is important to build awareness of your initiative and get buyin from residents through consistent communication.

One of the most important demographic segments to engage is children. Kids are open to change and are developing lifelong habits.

They are also extremely influential with their parents, siblings and friends.

“The key to a sustainable, healthy future is to change the way the next generation thinks about nutrition and exercise,” Mayor Pineda said. “This makes the public school system critical

to driving the behavioral changes that contribute to positive outcomes.”

Measure and adjust: Once your community’s health initiative is in action, assess it annually against the overarching plan and add, eliminate or improve components to continue the momentum toward a healthy community for generations to come.

Keep it fresh: A successful communitywide health initiative needs to continuously build on its momentum by adding new programs and participants. For example, Healthy West Chicago conducts sponsored activities such as free healthy cooking classes for students, a “Rethink Your Drink” campaign to educate community members

What to Know About Your Drinking Water

By Desert Star Staff Having clean, uncontaminated water to drink at home and on-the-go is one of the most essential components to keeping your family safe and healthy.

Unfortunately, safe water is not necessarily a given. A recent study, published by the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, found that in 2015, nearly 21 million people relied on community water systems that violated health-based quality standards.

What’s more, the risks to your

tap water are heightened during special circumstances like natural disasters and other emergencies.

To help ensure you are hydrating healthfully all the time -- at home, in your community, on trips or in emergencies – consider investing in an easy-to-maintain water filtration device that can be used anywhere in order to improve water quality.

One example is LifeStraw, first introduced for people in developing countries without access to safe water and

for victims following natural disasters. The company now makes a range of water filters and purifiers designed for uses like emergency preparedness, outdoor recreation, travel and everyday hydration.

The refillable LifeStraw Go 2-Stage water bottle features a built-in filter, and removes 99.9999 percent of waterborne bacteria (including E. coli and salmonella), 99.999 percent of protozoa while also reducing chlorine organic chemical matter and bad taste. Suitable for kids, the LifeStraw Play

model, a 10-oz water bottle designed for everyday use, incorporates the same technology with a sturdy kidfriendly leak-proof design.

LifeStraw is available online and at your local Walmart, Target and Sam’s Club.

What’s great is this is also a company that gives back -- for every LifeStraw product purchased, a school child in a community in need receives safe water for an entire school year. So far, the program

In addition, providing ongoing updates about programs and offering online tools, such as activity trackers and interactive walking route maps, are ways to build interest and retain participants.

Keep in mind that access to clean water is a persistent and global issue. By 2050, at least one in four people is likely to live in a country affected by chronic or recurring shortages of fresh water, according to the United Nations. This highlights the growing need to take precautions both at home and when you travel, and to invest in products that give back.

To do everything you can to keep your family healthy and safe, start by taking steps to improve the water you drink. StatePoint

aking sure your kids are ready to take on the world as adults is arguably one of the most important roles of a parent.

Now, more than ever, education is the foundation of that preparation.

As technology continues to evolve, it’s important that kids are learning, and also developing skills in high-demand areas, such as science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). A strong foundation of STEM learning is an important tool for the future, no matter the career path.

The experts at the America’s Farmers Grow Rural Education program, sponsored by the Monsanto Fund, are aiming to raise awareness of the benefits for today’s students, and partnering with farmers to award STEM grants that enhance programming at rural public school districts.

While nearly everyone has heard about STEM education in one way or another, some people don’t understand its true value in school and in the workplace.

It’s cutting edge. When it comes to innovation, there’s no disputing that STEM is progressing changes throughout society. STEM fields are at the forefront of nearly all of the exciting modern developments, from the latest digital gadgets enabled by technology to groundbreaking scientific research. Another benefit of this progressive environment is the financial and social impact on the community. Skilled STEM workers are driving trends and innovations, which can create jobs and boost the economy. All of these attributes appeal to eager, young graduates looking to make their mark.

It’s where the jobs are. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics published a report on the 10 fastest-growing occupations through 2026. In the report, 100 percent of the jobs fall into STEM categories, from the No. 1 growth career – solar www.desertstarweekly.com

photovoltaic installers – to a handful of medical field jobs to statisticians, software developers and mathematicians.

It’s a chance to make a real difference.

STEM fields can drive true social change.

Researching and uncovering new treatments, or even the cure, for a debilitating disease is only possible with skills gained through STEM learning. However, science isn’t the only STEM field that brings opportunities to make a difference in others’ lives. A career in technology could mean helping a child hear or see for the first time using a specially constructed device, for example.

It’s a stepping stone to dozens of industries.

While STEM learning lends itself well to a fairly large scope of career choices, that list is ever-expanding. In fact, most of today’s graduates find themselves hard-pressed to secure a position without some STEM training. Consider a seemingly distant field such as fashion, for example, where digital technologies enable design sketching, mathematic skills factor into creating patterns and some engineering knowledge is necessary for designing a runway show. Beyond the less obvious career choices, STEM learning provides practical experience with methods of problem solving that can be applied to virtually any aspect of personal or professional life.

It's helpful in developing additional skills.

The specific training involved in STEM education can help lead to certain career paths that will be available in the future. However, it can also help with more general skills your child can use immediately. Students typically follow processes in STEM programming and training, such as the scientific method, that give them a chance to work with other students, test hypotheses and find solutions. These challenges can often help in developing teamwork, leadership and other collaborative life skills.

Support STEM Learning

As a parent, there are many ways you can support STEM learning in your local school district. It’s little secret that school district budgets are continually shrinking, so an important way you can encourage STEM learning is by exploring funding opportunities that can bolster STEM programming.

Initiatives like America’s Farmers Grow Rural Education focus on bringing STEM education to rural school districts. Eligible farmers can nominate their local public school districts for the grants, which help enhance STEM education. Schools then participate in an application process to compete for $10,000 and $25,000 grants.

One school district in Royal, Washington, is utilizing the program to raise academic achievement for students in the classroom and on state-mandated math tests. The America’s Farmers Grow Rural Education grant allows teachers to extend learning for students, especially those who are learning English as a second language, who need intervention but lack the technology at home.

An important learning barrier is being removed through the use of Chromebooks and Kajeet, a system that allows internet connectivity but also has a filter to ensure the technology is limited to academic use. Learn more about the program and nomination process at AmericasFarmers.com.

Environmental Policies Improved Air and Water Quality Over Time

By Desert Star Staff CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. – A new report shows the environmental pollution problems caused by humans can actually be reversed by humans. The report by 11 senior researchers found that across the U.S., the quality of air and freshwater improved significantly in recent decades, mainly because of the Clean Air and Clean Water acts put in place nearly 50 years ago.

University of Virginia environmental sciences professor James Galloway is a co-author of the report and says since the 1970s, they’ve been monitoring sites showing a decline in concentrations of airborne pollutants such as sulfur, mercury and lead.

“The data shows that over this course of time, these environmental slights if you will, have decreased,” he notes. “They are not back

to natural levels, mind you, but they are certainly less dangerous than they were a couple decades ago.”

The report also showed the economic benefits of environmental policies far outweighed the costs.

For instance, it claims the Clean Air Act provided an estimated $22-trillion benefit to the U.S. economy.

Galloway says back in the eighties, there was a serious issue with acid rain, and while it was not eliminated, he says it was greatly diminished thanks to the Clean Air Act. Galloway says his big takeaway is that there are plenty of opportunities to undo damages caused by human pollution.

“We have caused environmental problems and, through concerted coordinated action, we can solve some environmental problems, and we have the

became afraid in water is not silly to most people. Most often, a child becomes afraid in water because his/her mother or father is afraid. The parent passes on the fear to the child, often unintentionally but sometimes---in order to “protect” the child--intentionally. A parent can’t be blamed for this if she doesn’t understand the water.

On the other hand, many parents who are afraid in

water make sure their kids learn to swim early, while the parents hide their own fear so as not to influence kids’ budding confidence.

A child who believes his mother and heeds her warnings is not silly: it’s normal.

A child’s beliefs are heavily influenced by messages from parents. Commonly, kids believe and do what their parents believe and do.

Besides learning fear from a parent, people become afraid from experiences where they lost control in water and couldn’t recover it. One example is being thrown in by a well-intentioned uncle who says, “Sink or swim!” He learned that way, but the child he threw in is traumatized for life and may never recover. Teens and adults become afraid other ways.

There’s widespread shame about not being able to swim. However, there need be no shame: it is not the non-swimmers’ fault.

Stroke mechanics (freestyle, breaststroke, etc.) have nothing to do with overcoming fear; to overcome fear, one must restore a broken trust in oneself. A nonswimmer of any age must learn how the water works. If you cannot swim, you haven’t felt how the water works.

MSA invites non-swimmers to let yourselves--- and tell your friend to let him/ herself--- off the hook. It is not your fault. Panic is not part of learning to swim.

The project for approximately 125,000 adults in Sarasota County is expected to take 4050 years. MSA’s system is that each adult becomes safe and confident in water over his/her head by having fun. Afternoon, weekend, and evening classes start April 7, 2018 for residents.

Visitors to Sarasota learn in back-to-back 5-day classes separated by a weekend.

“There are many times when we stop someone we believe may be under the influence of alcohol or another issue,” Radford said. “But they are just falling asleep or too tired to drive, it is a very, very dangerous situation.”

It’s Not Crazy to Be Afraid in Water as an Adult

If the cure for cancer were known and not publicized it would be a public wrong. Because MSA’s system works virtually 100% of the time, it has a

probably closed my eyes for a second and my car swerved to the opposite lane.”

Felix said she was driving at nighttime and she was tired.

But she is not alone, California ranked third in the country in the numbers of fatal crashes of drowsy drivers in a study published by Sleepjunkie.org.

Felix said, “I could have killed myself, for being tired and for not taking a moment to rest.”

The California Highway Patrol warns that drowsy drivers are just as dangerous as driving under the influence

of alcohol or drugs.

California Highway Patrol Officer Mike Radford said, “It impairs your judgment, slows down your reaction time.”

He accounts one of the deadliest wrecks in the desert to tired drivers.

“The tour bus collision in Palm Springs, where 13 people died, we do believe that both of those drivers were drowsy,” Radford said.

The C-H-P recommends for drowsy drivers to pullover and rest at a safe location, or switch-off driving with a passenger.

3 Kitchen and Bath Trends for 2018

By Desert Star Staff When it’s time for a home remodel, specifically of a bathroom or kitchen, many homeowners turn to trendy looks as inspiration. Color, texture and material variance, like using different types of tile, lead the way in this year’s kitchen and bath trends.

To help amplify the look and appeal of your space, consider these tips from the experts at the National Association of the Remodeling Industry: Try Different Shades White is classic, crisp and always in style, while gray also provides a traditional look. Many designers pair white or gray cabinets, tile and wall color with a pop of color to add interest without overwhelming the space.

There are many ways to introduce color, such as a bright island or items that are easily switched out like window treatments and artwork.

Combining different shades of white, gray and other neutral colors like beige is an effective way to create a

warm and inviting space. One important note to consider when mixing these hues is that they need to be in the same color family. When incorporating white and gray, go for colors that have the same base – either yellow or blue. Mixing a yellow-gray with a blue-white can result in discord that may not “feel” right. A qualified remodeler who has experience in design can provide expert advice and guide the decision-

making process to help avoid costly mistakes.

Consider Various Tile Types Another popular treatment in kitchens and bathrooms is to use different types of tile and surface stone. Incorporating tile of different shapes and texture such as quartz, marble or granite can energize even the smallest space.

Scale provides another way to create interest.

To achieve a mosaic feel,

look for 1-by-1-foot tiles prepped on larger 12-by12-foot sheets. Sometimes these sheets include a predefined pattern that can help simplify installation.

Pick Alternate Patterns Tile options are available in many varieties, so it can be difficult to know where to start. Subway tile, a classic standby, can be invigorated by arranging the rectangular 3-by-6-inch shapes in patterns like herringbone or basket weave. This versatile tile can be used in both traditional kitchens and bathrooms as well as transitional or more contemporary spaces.

Many manufacturers now include textured tile, featuring patterns that carry the look of wood grain; tiles are also available in three-dimensional textures adding movement and interest with easy care.

For example, using a variety of gray hues can create a relaxing and warm environment.

Group in DHS rallies for crosswalk after death of girl

By KMIR News Standing just steps away from where 17-year-old Pamela Carrillo was struck and killed by the driver of a passing car, friends, family and residents of a nearby neighborhood are demanding the city of Desert Hot Springs do something soon to Palm Dr. at the spot where she crossed the road.

The group held signs while shouting, “We need a crosswalk” and “Not another life.”

Pamela was struck and killed by the driver of a car in March while walking to a friend’s house.

“It comes to the point, every time we hear sirens, my mom will always make her prayers,” says Desert Hot Springs High School student Edna Escobedo who was friends with Pamela.

The group tells KMIR News their main concern is the city, which was given grant money for safety improvements www.desertstarweekly.com

City Council said two weeks ago there would be a street light put in near this area, but they want more. They say they want a crosswalk or a traffic light. They also want transparency about why the city can’t resolve the issue quickly.

“They don’t do [anything],” says Consuelo Flores, a mother who lives near the site of the accident.

“They’re talking, talking, and they don’t do [anything].

So we try and do this.”

With two bus stops on each side of Palm Dr. here near Camino Aventura, many people are forced to jaywalk.

HOROSCOPES ARIES

Often your compassion and sympathy are so well hidden it’s thought you don’t possess these virtues. You do, but it takes effort to bring these forth and this will occur this month. No longer can you draw the curtain on spiritual realities. No longer will we think you don’t have tender feelings. No longer can you push these away believing they interfere with daily life.

They are actually guideposts, talismans, amulets and protective magnetic charms.

TAURUS It is important to begin to assess your goals, hopes and wishes for the future. As you do this, others are reaching out to you from groups and organizations asking for your professional sense of the world and direction forward.

Cultivating, encouraging and strengthening the intelligence within your group is a task only you can do at this time. The group needs nurturing, too.

Can you step into these shoes?

GEMINI There’s a continued assessment concerning your work in the world and how you’re recognized. Soon there will be a new sense of vitality and invigoration and how you see your potential coming forth. Why not make a list of all the things you can do? Then list all that you hope

And what do you idealize?

CANCER In college I was asked to write a paper on altruism. That word has since been a part of my life and it appears in the most unexpected times and places.

No matter whether you travel or not, your mind is traveling far distances.

LEO You will be thinking of new things to do, new endeavors, challenges, and new ways of using your resources.

there is a lack of support? If so, begin to support others and that which you give is returned.

Be truly gracious. Don’t put on an act or act in terms of others’ expectations. Learn how to be authentically gracious. It has to do with the heart.

LIBRA It will be time this week to get down to business, to begin to be practical every hour of the day and to establish routines that will handle the detail of changes occurring in your life. Attempt to work with enthusiasm, summon efficiency and organization, ask for assistance (from humans and angels), eliminate everything not needed and make health and well-being your first priority.

SCORPIO You need some just-for-fun endeavors, things playful yet passionate. You also need something or someone calling forth your creative gifts. Only when creativity is involved are you truly pleased.

Trump defends Sinclair Broadcasting as media scandal shakes America

By Desert Star Staff President Donald Trump has again defended Sinclair Broadcasting after a video showing over 100 American news stations owned by the company reading from the same script went viral, with some even calling it Orwellian.

“The Fake News Networks, those that knowingly have a sick and biased AGENDA, are worried about the competition and quality of Sinclair Broadcast.

The “Fakers” at CNN, NBC, ABC & CBS have done so much dishonest reporting that they should only be allowed to get awards for fiction!” read a tweet from the president on Tuesday morning.

Since last month, news anchors at Sinclair stations have been delivering a promo message at the request of management. The message laments “the troubling trend of irresponsible, one-sided news stories plaguing our country,” and is delivered with almost no variation from network to network.

“Unfortunately, some members of the media use their platforms to push their own personal bias and agenda to control exactly what people think… This is extremely dangerous to a democracy,” the script continues, concluding with a line urging the public to hold the station accountable, followed by a promise: “We work very hard to seek the truth and strive to be fair, balanced and factual…

We consider it our honor, our privilege to responsibly deliver the news every day.”

www.desertstarweekly.com

Sinclair Broadcast Group owns some 173 television networks in the US, and the message segments were repeated as frequently as possible, giving the management almost blanket coverage in parts of America.

Rival mainstream media outlets were quick to slate Sinclair. CNN described the messages as “a promotional campaign that sounds like pro-Trump propaganda.”

MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough said: “This looks like something we would mock the Russians for doing during the days of Pravda.” Former CBS News anchor Dan Rather described the script, apparently foisted on news anchors from management above, as “Orwellian.”

Sinclair issued a statement on Monday, defending its decision to air the script.

“It is ironic that we would be attacked for messages promoting our journalistic initiative for fair and objective reporting, and for specifically asking the public to hold our newsrooms accountable.

Our local stations keep our audiences’ trust by staying focused on factbased reporting and clearly identifying commentary,” the statement from Sinclair SVP Scott Livingston read.

While Sinclair’s management is well understood to lean right-wing, and while media centralization and consolidation is a justified concern in the United States, Sinclair’s rival broadcasters are not exactly

Sinclair Made Dozens of Local News Anchors Recite the Same Script in a position to throw stones.

Dan Rather himself drew flak for his cheerleading of the US’ illegal invasion of Iraq in 2003. In an interview given just one week after 9/11, Rather made his case for the invasion of Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Sudan, Syria and Libya, and expressed his unwavering loyalty to the president. “George Bush is the president,” said Rather.

“He makes the decisions and as just one American wherever he wants me to line up just tell me where and he’ll make the call.”

Indeed, on almost every mainstream media network, viewers were treated to non-stop pro-war views. A 2003 study by Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR)

April 4, 2018

found that of the over 1,600 sources cited on American news stations in the runup to the war, 71 percent expressed pro-war views.

Only 10 percent of sources expressed any dissent.

Likewise, media outlets peddled the lie that Saddam Hussein possessed weapons of mass destruction. The New York Times apologized for its false coverage of Saddam’s weapons program in 2004.

Flashing forward to today, bias is still evident on every mainstream network, and Trump’s hammering of CNN and others is not without merit. Before the 2016 election, CNN gave debate questions in advance to Hillary Clinton’s team, and claimed that “only the media”

are allowed to view Wikileaks emails. After the election, CNN continued to obsessively publish false stories linking the Trump administration with Russian interests.

Meanwhile, Project Veritas, an American conservative media watchdog, launched an investigation last year into media bias. In the “American Pravda” video series, senior figures at CNN, the New York Times, and the Washington Post admit to undercover reporters that the “Russia narrative” is false, that they pursue a biased agenda, and that they chase ratings over the truth.

This gourmet fourcourse Luncheon is paired

with wines for each menu. It shows guests which wine to use with each part of a meal.

This event takes up the whole area that was the runway for Fashion Week. Famous Chefs show how different meals are made and give a recipe for each. Attendees get to taste the prepared dish and taste the wine that was chosen for that particular dish. This event is a usually a sold out for those that want to learn

The Food and Wine event is another part of the weeklong event. Guests were given a wine glass and holder so they could try different wines and keep their hands free.

There were so many kinds of beers and wines to taste.

There was food everywhere.

The menus and wines were in several parts of the parking lot

The Best Chefs, Vintners and Craft Beer Brewers were on hand to display their products.

There were cooking demonstrations in three smaller tents all afternoon. The list of chefs was very long, and each session lasted several minutes where guests sat and watched

them prepare a delicious dish. Each Chef had his or her specialty entre or dessert to show. The chairs for each cooking demonstration was full. Guests made notes on the recipe or directions on how to prepare the dish. Guests came and went all afternoon from 1 to 4. The Agua Caliente Casino Resort Spa presented the Food and Wine event along with other presenters and sponsors.

Garrett-Pate says the community will be closely watching the Trump administration’s recent executive order banning most transgender people from serving in the military - a move that has been blocked in the courts so far, thanks to a lawsuit brought in part

by Equality California.

“There’s no reason that we should be excluding anyone who is willing to serve their country from doing so, and everyone ought to be held to the exact same standards, and anyone who can meet those standards should be able to serve in uniform,” he explains.

Trump has said that having transgender people in the military would reduce military effectiveness and lethality and has complained about the government footing the cost of gender-reassignment surgery.

LGBTQ Leaders Gather in L.A. to Resist Trump Administration Policies

By Desert Star Staff SACRAMENTO, Calif.

– Hundreds of leaders in the LGBTQ community are gathering for a conference in Los Angeles this Friday - to

continue the fight against discriminatory policies coming from the Trump administration and improve state laws on equality.

The fourth annual

conference put on by Equality California Institute will promote a new bill to declare conversion therapy for adults a form of consumer fraud.

Samuel Garrett-Pate,

communications director for Equality California, notes that therapy to attempt to change a person’s sexual orientation already is illegal for anyone younger than 18 in the Golden State, and is considered by many experts to be outright abusive.

“It is harmful, it causes incredible psychological abuse on the people that those practices are used against, and there’s no place for that here in the state of California,” he says.

The conference will push for funding to train teachers on how to support LGBTQ youths. The group also will celebrate California’s move to protect people from losing their health insurance after the GOP Congress slashed funding for Medicaid.

Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom will speak at the event, which is free and open to the public.

By Desert Star Staff “And so, he drops a lot of things, and Aspen is able to pick up those things, can also open drawers, closes both can even get things out of the refrigerator,” says Branscum She says the other special thing these dogs do is help people connect with those they help, “It’s often that we hear that someone who’s in a wheelchair perhaps say they kind of become invisible, so a beautiful black lab who

is friendly and gentle and loving is a great bridge.”

Their training standards are so stringent, only about 40 percent of the dogs will become companions.

But Branscum says that’s not a bad thing, “She may not be a working dog she just may be the most wonderful pet on the block and if that happens that would be okay too,” The cost to breed and train these dogs is about $50,000, she says. But the

cost to get one, “That is the most endearing part of our organization all of our dogs go into service at no charge to the recipient.”

She says since the day Shadow was placed under her care, she’s had one prayer for her future, “That God will place her exactly where she needs to be.”

“I love her with my whole heart,” she says adding that the hardest thing about being a puppy raiser is saying goodbye,

“when you love big, it hurts big, but you don’t lose anything, you just send your love along.”

Tips to take control of your money in 2018

C

FAMILY FEATURES

ounting calories isn’t the only way you can resolve to bring about positive change in your life during the new year. If you’re like many Americans, it may be a good time to start counting your way toward better financial health.

The past year brought financial setbacks to nearly two-thirds of United States households, according to a survey by the National Endowment for Financial Education (NEFE). In fact, more than a quarter of U.S. adults say the current quality of their financial lives are worse than they hoped. Topping the list of setbacks in 2017 were transportation issues (23 percent), housing repairs or maintenance (20 percent), and the inability to keep up with debt and falling behind on bill payments (16 percent).

In an effort to reverse that trend, more than two-thirds of U.S. adults will make financial New Year’s resolutions for 2018, according to the survey. Among those that plan to step up their financial game, top goals include setting and following a budget (40 percent), making a plan to get out of debt (39 percent), establishing savings (32 percent) and boosting retirement savings (31 percent).

“We continue to see a lot of anxiety about money,” said Ted Beck, president and CEO of NEFE. “Three-quarters of Americans said something causes them financial stress, and it’s most often not saving enough and debt that are to blame.”

Reduce money stress and take control of your finances with these tips for financial success from the experts at NEFE: 1. Get debt under control. Take a hard look at what you owe.

If there’s a clear warning sign of too much debt, take action.

Set a goal to reduce your debt load next year by 5-10 percent.

That might mean reducing impulse shopping. When you face temptation, delay the purchase and give yourself time to consider whether it’s a wise move that fits within your budget.

2. Save now and do so often.

Preparing for unexpected events like medical emergencies can help reduce the financial impact of a life-changing event.

Emergency savings can offset unexpected costs and help you get back on solid footing. A good rule of thumb is to have 6-9 months of income set aside.

If that feels out of reach, start with a smaller goal, even as

3. Shop for better services.

You may be surprised by how much you can save when you periodically shop for the most competitive rates on your recurring bills. Make a game out of shopping providers

to find the best value on your insurance policies, cell phone plan, internet and utilities. Ask your providers about current rates and any promotions available to longtime, loyal customers. Then look at alternative providers to determine where you can trim some spending. Be sure to understand your current offering thoroughly so that you are comparing apples to apples.

4. Understand what’s behind your financial decisions. If you ever wonder why you feel good about spending money on vacations but avoid saving for retirement, the answer may lie in your unique values and how they influence your financial decision-making. Consider taking the LifeValues Quiz at smartaboutmoney.org, where you can also find help with setting goals and getting your finances in order.

o take control of your money and your financial life, it’s important to get organized.

The most effective tool is a budget. Creating a budget can help you meet personal goals such as buying a house or car, or taking a vacation. It also can help you prepare for emergencies and manage debt.

Income: Start by listing all income sources, including wages, bonuses and tips, as well as nonemployer income such as child support, alimony or Social Security. Generally, you’ll want to look at your recurring income, but also include long-range, infrequent income that you anticipate, such as tax refunds.

little as $500. When it comes to saving, it’s also a smart idea to think long term. Review your long-term savings and ensure they are on target for your retirement plans.

Expenses: Next, take into account all of your recurring

monthly bills. If you have major periodic expenses, such as a six-month auto insurance premium, account for it in monthly increments so you can save up and have the money ready when the payment comes due. Remember to account for the bills you pay (mortgage or rent, utilities, etc.), as well as unspecified items like lawn maintenance and personal hygiene purchases.

Categorize Spending: Some people find it helpful to break expenses into categories, such as housing, transportation, health, personal, entertainment and so on.

The key is to capture every point where money is going out so you can get a thorough picture of your ongoing

April 4, 2018

expenditures. It can take a couple months to get a true understanding of what your typical spending looks like.

Savings: An effective budget doesn’t just capture what’s going out; it also reflects what you’re able to keep. If you haven’t already, outline a savings plan that allows for an emergency fund, regular savings, retirement and investments.

Debt: Consistently paying down the accounts you owe with the maximum amount you can afford is the surest way to reduce your debt load. Account for each debt you owe in your budget, and establish a payment plan that shows how much you can allocate to each account each month.

newly-released third album “Golden Hour” there is melancholy aplenty even when the songstress is delivering infectious and upbeat material.

“Lonely Weekend” has the breezy flow of a warm summer afternoon but not too far below the surface the Texas native’s voice reveals a vulnerable disquiet; “Mother” offers a brief but deeply affecting and tender nod to her mother.

“Butterflies” is a youthful tale of new love; “Oh, What A World” turns things on a dime with a two-tier theme — being both a celebration of the world around her and the romantic subject of her affection. “Love Is A Wild Thing” and the title track prove to offer particularly introspective looks at the power of love. “Rainbow” is an encouraging ballad featuring her expressive vocals accompanied only by piano. Musgraves has developed into a master at blending country and pop in ways that are both original and poignant. Information: KaceyMusgraves.com.

Artist: Bettye LaVette Title: Things Have Changed (Verve) You might like if you enjoy: Bob Dylan, Betty LaVette, Mavis Staples Tell me more: Leave it to

soul singer Bettye LaVette to deliver the perfect full-length tribute to Bob Dylan. Produced

by Steve Jordan, “Things Have Changed” allows the 72-yearold LaVette to revisit and rework a dozen Dylan gems spanning from 1964’s “The Times They Are A-Changin’” to 2006’s “Ain’t Talkin’.” With her raspy but inviting deep vocals, LaVette infuses the songs and their savvy wordplay with a fresh and life-lived authenticity.

“It Ain’t Me Babe” is now a soulful ballad. “Do Right To Me Baby (Do Unto Others)” comes off as a freewheelin’ soul rocker with LaVette’s passionate voice dancing amidst the song’s groove and guitarist Larry Campbell’s lively riffs. “The Times They Are A-Changin’” is a cool mid tempo soul tune, artfully building in power and spirit.

“Emotionally Yours” has never sounded so beautiful, with LaVette’s surefire delivery fully capturing the emotional force of the song. The jazzy take on “What Was It You Wanted” is bolstered by New Orleans sensation Trombone Shorty.

Bettye LaVette, Beth Hart, Trampled Under Foot Tell me more: As long as there are singers as passionate and talented as Danielle Nicole, the future of the blues is in great musical hands and will thrive. On the singer-songwriter/ bassist’s second solo album “Cry No More,” Nicole ups the power quotient via 14 powerhouse performances produced by Tony Braunagel (Taj Mahal, Bonnie Raitt, Eric Burdon). From the blistering opener “Crawl” and moody “I’m Going Home” (which features some thrilling slide guitar from Louisiana legend Sonny Landreth) to the Deltastyled take on Blind Willie Johnson’s “Lord I Just Can’t Keep From Crying.” Nicole’s dynamic vocals and bass guitar elevate the far-flung blues material, and itt doesn’t hurt that the lineup of players is of the upper-echelon variety; guitarist Walter Trout fires up the Nicole original “Burnin’ For You” and Kenny Wayne Shepherd unleashes some impressive Buddy Guy-styled guitar play on the Chicago blues track “Save Me.” Elsewhere, guitarist Luther Dickinson (of the North Mississippi Allstars) guests.

Elements of a Digital Transformation Before diving headfirst into a digital transformation, consider what aspects are most important to your business.

Automation When developing or implementing new technology or digital assets, automation is a key component most businesses are striving toward. It can save your business money while also reducing monotonous tasks and allowing your employees to focus on the more skill-reliant aspects of their jobs.

ne of the challenges facing small businesses today is trying to deliver the same customer experience as larger competitors. As technology advances and takes on an ever-growing role, small businesses can tap new innovations to better communicate with customers, save money and simplify operations.

As small business owners look to transform digitally, they face a number of options, from upgrading their technology to optimize shipping operations and decrease costs to adopting digital marketing tactics to better understand and target their customers. While it can be difficult for a small business that is well-established using analog processes to switch to digital, the key is to start with the final objective in mind; in other words, begin by defining your end goal. Once you’ve determined the desired outcome of digitizing your business, these tips can help you establish a strategy that can benefit both your business performance and customer experience.

Reach customers through digital marketing

An important step in digital transformation is revisiting how you attract and interact with current and prospective customers,

who are increasingly turning to a combination of physical and digital channels to engage with brands and businesses. If you think of digital marketing and email or online ads, you’re on the right track, but effective marketing requires more than simply hitting send on an email or counting clicks on an ad. Email marketing should be focused on providing helpful, relevant content to your target audience based on its preferences.

Recipients can come to appreciate your insights on industry news and helpful information, so your sales pitches are likely to be more warmly received.

Beyond the content, an effective strategy establishes connective links between all your marketing touchpoints, from email to blog and even to your traditional tactics, such as direct mail and more, all with the goal of boosting credibility and visibility via search engine optimization and foot traffic.

Optimize operations through the cloud

As technology evolves, more tasks can be handled online and more traditional analog devices are connected to the internet and the cloud. Adopting the use of these digitally connected devices can not only make fulfilling tasks easier and more efficient, but also track patterns and collect data that brings new value to small business owners. For example, with a surge in parcel volumes year over year (thanks, in part, to a

sustained e-commerce growth), according to the Pitney Bowes Parcel Shipping Index, consider a cloud-enabled shipping solution, such as the SendPro C-Series, to simplify sending operations. This digital multicarrier platform leverages the latest cloud technology to enable offices of all sizes to easily select the ideal sending option for every parcel or letter, while also providing full tracking information and delivering savings.

“The SendPro C-Series is designed to take the guesswork out of shipping and mailing,” said Jason Dies, executive vice president and president, Pitney Bowes SMB Solutions. “These digitally connected sending devices allow users to better manage their sending operations on one platform, providing the confidence that they selected the right carrier and class of service for each expedited envelope and package, track all shipments from one dashboard and provide consolidated visibility and control of postal and carrier expenses. Plus, the open platform allows developers to create new applications specific for the needs of small business owners.”

Make decisions based on analytics

Beyond providing efficiency and simplicity, connected and cloud-enabled devices can generate and track valuable data, which can, in turn, be

Technology as a whole can make your business more efficient, from increasing employee productivity to allowing greater flexibility in an oftenchanging market.

analyzed and used to make important business decisions.

In a business environment dominated by ever-changing consumer preferences, datadriven insights are key to serving the needs and securing the business of today’s hyperconnected consumers. By utilizing data and analytics, your business can be better equipped to deliver superior customer experiences, support product and service innovation, and optimize business processes.

Interaction Embracing technology and digital communication can allow for greater reach and ease of communication. From the use of social media platforms to email blasts and online advertisements, technology can expand how and when your business communicates with potential consumers.

Use mobile to communicate with customers

Even the smallest of businesses can take steps toward better mobile communication, such as ensuring their websites are mobile-friendly and responsive to different device types. This is especially important as mobile usage continues to climb in the United States, and consumers increasingly rely on mobile devices for information to guide purchase decisions. Your

business can also capitalize on location intelligence capabilities to deliver timely coupons and promotions to customers in the immediate vicinity.

Salmon to Get Spring Relief with Added Dam Spills

By Desert Star Staff SEATTLE – A U.S. appeals court on Monday upheld a decision to allow Northwest dams to release more water over their spillways to help young salmon heading toward the ocean. Dams on the Columbia and Snake rivers will begin spilling more water in the next week.

Federal agencies appealed a decision last year to enable more spill, saying there wasn’t enough time to come up with a plan. This year, the agencies argued that salmon weren’t in need of this extra protection.

However, the three-judge appeals court agreed with U.S. District Court Judge Michael Simon that salmon are in a “precarious” state.

Earthjustice attorney Steve Masuda says spill has a proven track record for helping juvenile salmon.

“Spill is really the one bright spot in efforts to preserve salmon over the past 10 years

A federal court has mandated that dams in the Columbia River Basin increase spill for salmon four times since 2005. (U.S. Forest Service/Flickr or so,” he explains. “It’s really the one most direct measure that we know will make a difference for fish. And so, it’s the one thing that we have some control over.”

This is the fourth time since

2005 that increased spill has been mandated by a federal court. The decision marks a win for plaintiffs in the case, which included conservation and fishing groups, the Nez Perce Tribe and the state of Oregon.

However, Joseph Bogaard, executive director of the Save Our Wild Salmon Coalition, says the spill is only one part of efforts to restore the regions’ salmon. He says the federal government continues to propose inadequate plans to save the 13 populations of Columbia River Basin salmon that have been endangered for the past two decades, and that’s hurt the people of the Northwest.

“I think it’s very safe to say that fishing businesses and fishing people are very concerned about livelihoods, about fishing opportunities, and about what the future holds, especially given the continuing resistance on the part of the agencies,” he says.

Bogaard says orcas have suffered in recent decades too because of declining salmon populations, one of their major food sources.

SB 1449 Helps Ensure Justice, Put Rapists Behind Bars

By Desert Star Staff SACRAMENTO – The Senate Public Safety Committee today passed important legislation authored by Senator Connie M. Leyva (D-Chino) that will require law enforcement agencies and forensic laboratories to promptly analyze and test all newly collected rape kit evidence in California.

Following federal best practices, SB 1449 ensures that sexual assault victims in California will have equal access to the swift submission and analysis of forensic evidence associated with their cases.

Dezart Performs Theatre Company Presents Poignant Comedy “Motherhood Out Loud”

By Jack Lyons Theatre and Film Critic Member American Theatre Critics Association Where would any of us be today without the mothers of the world? Everyone has had one or better yet, it is hoped, still has one. They are so necessary to life on this crazy planet. We honor them with their own special day every May, and rightly so!

What a fabulous production Dezart Performs chooses to end their 10th Season. It’s been a stellar season of outstanding entertainment for the Palm Springs-based theatre company beginning with “The Legend of Georgia McBride”, followed by the powerful drama “Rabbit Hole”, to Dezart’s annual tribute/ fund raiser to old time radio, with their hilarious production “On the Air”, performed by Hollywood actor/celebrities., of radio, TV, Film, and the New York stage. Which brings us to their current production “Motherhood Out Loud”, now gracing the boards of the Pearl McManus Theatre, in the historic downtown Palm Springs, Woman’s Club, is performed without an intermission.

This fun-filled production is comprised of a series of thirteen vignettes, sketches, and monologues written by some of America’s finest comedy and drama female playwrights. The ‘community of women’ is like a secret society to men who don’t have a clue when it comes to child-berthing and raising a family, or understanding why the shoes and purse have to match, let alone, grasp the delicious feeling of a hot bath and soak as a restorative, with a glass of chardonnay near- by at the end of a full day as a stressed out, new Mom, or as a mother again; accompanied now with double the stress of parenting chores.

Under the smart and crisp direction of Artistic Director/Actor Michael Shaw, “Motherhood Out Loud” brings insights and revelations to the males in the audience and smiles and a multitude of laughout-loud- moments from the ladies in the audiences; be they mothers or not. Don’t be misled by preconceived ideas drawn from TV sit-coms. The shock of recognition of life as it’s lived in 21st century America - and probably most everywhere else - resonates with both male and female audiences when it comes to married life.

Shaw cleverly arranges the sequencing, selection, and order in the telling of the story, much as a symphony conductor orchestrates his or her musicians. Dezart Performs, superbly gets their job done with just five talented cast members who deliver terrific poignant and nuanced individual moments on stage and display great comedy timing in the ensemble format.

The creative magic taking www.desertstarweekly.com

place on the stage comes from five fine actors whose roles fit them like expensive patent leather gloves. There are no spoiler alerts by me because they’re all self-contained, linear-styled vignettes, broken into five chapters. The audience is here to observe and be entertained in the process.

And, boy are they entertained.

The company features the talents of: Melanie Blue, Desiree Clarke, Theresa Jewett, Leanna Rodgers, and James Owens.

Chapter One: introduces us to a sketch concerning “Fast Births”. Men, here’s where you need to pay attention and learn why very few new fathers are allowed to watch the berthing process at hospitals. The ladies know all about this section. Leanna Rogers hilariously performs playwright Brooke Berman’s piece entitled “Next to the Crib.”

Chapter Two: ‘First Day’, is about the learning curves in the lives of young children.

Theresa Jewett, delivers a tender and insightful portrayal as a young mother explaining to her gender-conflicted son why he probably shouldn’t attend the Purim party at school dressed as Queen Esther. Her rationale and her ultimate decision brings a lump to one’s throat.

Chapter Three: ‘Sex Talk’.

The children in this piece entitled Sex Talk Fugue’ are now approaching, or, are in their teens. The pieces by playwright Michele Loew, Lameece Issaq, Luanne Rice, Clair LaZebnik and director Shaw give his entire cast of four ladies and one man the okay for a full speed ahead to review their various family observations concerning the subject of sexual awakening issues in their families when they come up. They’re hilarious and enlightening thanks to the performances of: Melanie Blue, who is fabulous as a hip, up to date, Muslim mom with daughter Leanna Rodgers. Desiree Clarke, Theresa Jewett, and James Owens commiserate about their various teenagers.

Owens especially delivers a wonderfully droll, comical monologue about the Christmas Holidays from the perspective of a gay man.

Chapter Four: ‘Stepping Out’ covers the children getting married and leaving the nest. In ‘Bridal Shop’ by Michele Loew, Desiree Clarke and Melanie Blue discuss their future daughter and son’s new relatives. It’s bittersweet, but funny and hilarious. This Chapter also features terrific singer/actor Teresa Jewett, as the mother of a son in the Army recalling the day he decided to enlist, saying he finally found out what he wanted to do with his life. Her achingly poignant performance was one of the most powerful and stunningly rendered soliloquys in recent memory; bringing tears to many eyes in the audience. The

(L-R) Melanie Blue, Leanna Rodgers, Theresa Jewett, Desireé Clarke and James Owens perform in the Off-Broadway comedy MOTHERHOOD OUT LOUD, the final production of Dezart Performs’ 10th Anniversary Season. Photo credit: Clark Dugger audience was so fully engaged and so quiet, one could hear a pin drop. It was as if everyone just stopped breathing.

It’s a sublime theatrical moment not be missed.

In Chapter Five: ‘Coming Home’, Ms. Jewett has another evocative, poignantly delivered monologue in a piece by playwright Annie Weisman, entitled ‘My Baby’.

handy for this one too. Now you know why we celebrate Mother’s Day in America.

The technical credits that enhance this splendid production belong to Set Designer Thomas L. Valach, Lighting Designer Phil Murphy Costumes Designed by Frank Cazares, Sound Design by Clark Dugger and Prop Master Cecilia Orosco. The production is stage managed by Diane

McLure. The technical crew of Sierra Barrick, Kaley Doherty, and Sierra Johnson, are Interns under the direction of co- producer Clark Duggar.

“Motherhood Out Loud” is a stellar production that performs on the Pearl McManus stage in the Palm Springs Woman’s Club, produced by Dezart Performs, and runs through April 8, 2018. For tickets and reservations, call 760-322-0179.
