“Super Bowl LVI” SoFi Stadium Wants to Reinvent the Super Bowl Experience

By Desert Star Staff It’s exactly 25 days until Super Bowl LVI, and I’m on the mezzanine at SoFi Stadium, sitting in front of six of the executives who are responsible for making sure America’s

most popular live sporting event goes off without a hitch.

Katie Keenan, senior director of event operations at the NFL, is espousing the benefits of hosting the contest in Los Angeles and at this

“amazing facility” in particular.

In the past few months, the $5 billion stadium — which opened its doors to NFL fans for the first time in September 2021 — has been the site of everything from The

Rolling Stones concerts to youth football championships course, Los Angeles Rams and Chargers games.

It’s all part of a more considerable 300-acre development, surrounded by towering palm trees, called Hollywood Park, much of

By Desert Star Staff Palm Springs, CA 2022- This Spring, DAP Health will unveil its harm reduction program with two components.

First, Overdose prevention and a Syringe Services Program (SSP) will include health services and behavioral health support to combat the rise in preventable overdoses and the increase in new HIV cases.

The multi-layered program will focus on education for the community, HIV and Hepatitis C testing, distribution and collection of syringes and referrals to support folks through their addiction journey.

Additional services to be provided: Naloxone/Narcan to reverse an overdose and prevent death, and Fentanyl test strips for testing drugs before use to decrease the

likelihood of overdose.

In the latest preliminary data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 100,000 people in the U.S. died from overdoses during the 12 months from April 2020 through April 2021 In Riverside County, there has been an 800 percent increase in fentanylrelated deaths since 2016, according to Rivco.org.

Palm Springs has an overdose death rate 300 percent higher than the state average.

Palm Springs Police Department Chief Andy Mills reviewed the harm reduction program and was impressed with how complete it is.

“It’s important to remember the dynamics that go into a program like this,” Mills

says. “That’s what excites me. Not only is DAP Health looking at helping people, but genuinely helping people so they are not destructive to

themselves or our community.”

DAP Health is only the second state-certified Syringe Services Program (SSP) in Riverside County,

which is still under construction but, when completed, will host about 2,500 residences, a retail district, a hotel, and public parks, among other attractions. Before the development, the area was

the 10th most populated county in the United States.

Hope for the Desert Tortoise

By Desert Star Staff The desert tortoise population is in steep decline – in some areas, the population has decreased by 90%. The loss of viable habitat for the tortoise is one of the main factors affecting its survival.

But something can be done!

Securing strategic habitat is crucial in ensuring young hatchlings can survive and adult tortoises have room to forage and mate.

We have great news for the start of 2022! MDLT has acquired 480 acres in the Pisgah Area of Critical Environmental Concern. This acquisition secures a section of the Cady Mountains to the west of Mojave Trails National Monument. The property’s rocky hills and

washes are home to bighorn sheep and desert tortoises.

With our recent acquisitions of the past few months, we are nearing 120,000 acres conserved since 2006! In the year ahead, we will also be focusing our acquisition efforts on strategic areas that serve as climate refugia for imperiled desert species. The impacts of climate change are already well documented in iconic species such as the western Joshua tree. We are actively mapping out how our land preservation work can help address this immediate threat.

A highlight of the last few months has been the acquisition of 480 acres in the Pisgah Area of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC), near Barstow.

ACECs exist where special

management attention is needed to protect unique natural and cultural resources. Pisgah creates significant linkage for wildlife populations to the north and south and is critical for bighorn sheep, golden eagles, desert tortoise, prairie falcons, and Mojave fringe-toed lizards. In addition, numerous rare and sensitive plants have significant populations here, including the Crucifixion Thorn.

Further north in the Grass Valley Wilderness, MDLT has acquired 40 acres at the base of a mountain and another 20 acres that will require a minor clean-up. This wilderness is a habitat for desert tortoise and Mohave ground squirrels, and raptors are known to forage here.

Crete: Europe’s last frontier

By Desert Star Staff A recent article in the New York Times pointed to Crete as the perfect place for springtime skiing—who would have thought a sunny island in the Mediterranean would earn that distinction?

The most oversized island in Greece and the fifth-largest island in the Mediterranean, Crete, is nearly 165 miles from end to end. Yet, it’s much more than just a spot to grab a tan, and its mosaic of civilizations makes it a cultural contender almost without peer in the region.

Crete’s rugged and relatively isolated landmass is deeply chiseled with canyons and caverns, making the island an ideal, if somewhat unconventional, choice for invigorating mountain treks and canyoning - an activity that

involves descending into gorges using waterfall rappelling and other intense techniques. In fact, of Crete’s approximately 400 canyons, 90 can be considered “technical” canyons, requiring some hardcore mountaineering skills to explore properly.

At 2,456 meters, Mount Ida wins the title of the highest mountain on Crete. At the same time, in their southern reaches, the White Mountains are home to Instagram champion Samaria Gorge, which at 16 km from its start on the Omalos plateau, elevation 1,200 meters, to finish at seaside Agia Roumeli, is the longest gorge in Europe and part of a protected biosphere.

The popularity of the gorge’s walking path, flanked by vertical walls reaching 500 meters, does nothing to diminish the setting’s remote and wild appeal. There are many less famous - but no

less beautiful - “hiking canyons” all over Crete, such as the Sfakiano Gorge, several in the region of Chania, and south of Rethymnon the famous Kourtaliotiko Gorge through which the river Megalos flows, ending at Preveli beach and its enchanting palm grove.

“Growing up in Crete we sort of took the mountain scenery for granted,” says Kostas Filippakis, an art director now based in Athens, “but it’s true that, other than the sea, of course, the mountains and canyons really are the defining features of the island’s landscape.

“I grew up around the Dikti mountains in the Lassithi area, which is beautiful and with some of the best canyons around, but you could say that everyone has their ‘favorite’ mountain summit or ravine—and they’re all right!”

And to Filippakis’s point, there are plenty of wild places on the island that defy easy categorization—but that just ramps up the ‘wow’ factor.

Cases in point, Mount Kedros near Spili, the “mountain of the 100 springs,” or the intriguing Mountain Desert of the Lefka Ori where erosion of the limestone peaks, more than thirty of which are 6,500 feet tall or higher, has created a stark landscape found nowhere else in the northern hemisphere.

To hop around Crete, and not just hoofing it from one beach to another, but to journey from one scenic thriller of a stretch to the next, remember the island is a beast size-wise.

Hence, a car is essential (as with your choices of eats, which are roundly delicious in Crete, go local). But you can never really crack the whip in Crete, hence part of the allure. For example, consider the incomparably named Gorge of Ha, part of the mountain massif of Thrypti.

Yiannis Bromirakis, a seasoned guide with the Cretan Canyoning Association, emphasizes the importance of skills and stamina to take on technical canyons like Ha. From the guide’s point of view, as he puts it, “if you make one mistake, maybe it’s your last mistake.” This is probably why regardless of how old or young you are, choosing your canyon quarry, so to speak, should be done with care. “We interview potential participants first to evaluate their level of mountain experience,” Bromirakis says.

Given the toughness that underscores so much of Crete’s raw beauty, that’s a good thing.

Consider that Ha’s opening is just three meters wide, and beyond it narrows to just 30 centimeters in places, with the massive walls on either side soaring to heights of some 1,300 feet—that’s pretty high! Source: Pam Price

million — and the forthcoming Intuit Dome, a $1.8 billion stadium for his Los Angeles Clippers slated to open in 2024.

“That’s all great news for us,” Hedinsson said, noting how both Ballmer’s developments and the NFL’s new 450,000-square-foot West Coast headquarters down the road only add to the growth and vitality of the area.

There’s more than the Super Bowl on the way. SoFi Stadium will host the College Football Playoff national title game in 2023, the Olympics’ opening and closing ceremonies in 2028, and is a candidate for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Ballmer isn’t the only one building up, either. Throughout all of the major U.S. sports leagues, teams are expected to spend over $10 billion on new and renovated stadiums and arenas by the end of this decade, from Oakland to Chicago to Miami and several other cities in between.

Los Angeles hosted the first-ever Super Bowl in 1967, and the storyline comes full circle when it returns to the city in just four weeks.

More than a game, it’s a coming-out party for a new type of stadium that will occupy the dreams of fans and team owners for years to come. After 100 millionplus viewers witnessed the glory of a genuinely futureproofed stadium in February, I don’t think any of us will be able to look back.

Netflix Taps ‘Drive to Survive’ Producer for New Tennis Series

By Desert Star Staff Novak Djokovic’s Australian Open saga and other significant moments in tennis are getting the “Drive to Survive” treatment.

The ATP Tour, ATP Media, WTA Tour, and all four Grand Slam Tournaments are working with Netflix on a documentary series, beginning with this month’s Australian Open.

The tournament has had plenty of drama off the court, as top-ranked Djokovic was deported from Australia after refusing to get vaccinated against COVID, contracted the virus, and acknowledged making false statements on documents regarding his whereabouts before traveling to the country.

He loses out on a shot at a record 21st Grand Slam championship and up to $2.1 million in prize money.

WITH LADY BEVERLY COHN

George Clooney Directs Ben Affleck in “The Tender Bar” Everyone has childhood memories – some fond and others, well, maybe not so much.

One of mine is having Sunday lunches at my Aunt Jenny’s house in the projects where my cousins and I piled around the Formica-topped table and ate wide noodles with butter and lots of pot cheese with glasses of dried powdered milk that came in a package. Childhood coming-of-age memories inform “The Tender Bar,” a memoir written by J.R. Moehringer, a Pulitzer prize-winning journalist.

Perfectly adapted for the screen

by William Monahan, George Clooney skillfully directed this non-linear film which quietly tells the story of Moehringer’s colorful childhood experiences and his challenging road to success.

A voice-over by our protagonist begins the film in the year 1973. A young mother, wonderfully played

by Lily Rabe, and her son JR, incredibly portrayed by an adorable Daniel Ranieri, who makes his film debut, are driving in a car packed with personal belongings. This young actor will both make you laugh and sometimes tear your heart out as he experiences the challenges of growing up in what can only be described as chaotic living conditions.

Mom is broke and has to move back to her childhood home on Long Island and once again live with her crotchety old father, a man of zero concern about relieving himself of gas anywhere, anytime. He is nicely played by Christopher Lloyd, who presents us with a layered performance beyond what we see on the surface. Despite his crudeness and protestations, he makes room for anyone in the family who needs a place to live. That includes uncle Charley, his sister Ruth (Danielle

Ranieri) and now JR and his mom. Ben Affleck delivers one of the best performances of his career, of which there are many memorable ones. He has crawled into the skin of his character. Although his Oscarworthy performance falls into the Supporting Actor category, it is the lynchpin on which most of the other characters revolve.

His steady, unemotional advice to his nephew is direct and to the point. Young JR hangs onto every word dispensed by his uncle. For example, he tells him quite bluntly that “You are not good in sports, so you’ll have to find another activity.”

Regarding JR’s alcoholic deadbeat absentee father, Johnny Michaels, a radio broadcaster referred to as “The Voice,” nicely played by Max Martini, Charley tells him, “Don’t look for your father – he’s an asshole.” Every so often, his father calls and makes a date to pick him up, but almost never appears, leaving JR sitting on the front steps of his house for hours. Charley tries to mentor his nephew in the requirements of manhood.

He teaches him how to place his money on the bar, where to keep a stash (cash) in a secret pocket of his wallet, “Which you never spend,” and how to play 5-card stud. He also councils him that you never hit a woman, “Even if she stabs you in the neck with scissors.” JR does his homework at The Dickens Bar – a blue-collar watering hole for locals not unlike the bar featured in the television hit comedy “Cheers.” Although not educated formally and a bartender, Charlie is a vociferous reader, keeps stacks of books behind the bar and can intelligently discuss just any subject. During downtime, he does word puzzles with young JR, often giving him the answers earning

L-R: Daniel Ranieri as young JR with Ben Affleck as his Uncle Charley in George Clooney’s THE TENDER BAR, currently streaming on Amazon Prime TV. Photo courtesy of Amazon Studios him the reputation of being a “protégé.” Mom is adamant that JR will grow up and attend Yale University and later law school. Charley thinks his nephew should be a writer and tells him to read all the books stored in a closet, hence setting him on a course to his destiny.

He also explains that to be a successful writer, you’ve got to have ‘IT.” Since Charley told him he’s not good at sports, there was a moment of holding one’s breath until he blurts out, “And you’ve got “IT.” Several scenes are particularly outstanding.

Charley has a meeting with JR’s therapist, who is quite concerned that JR won’t say what those initials stand for. Well, the uncle makes mincemeat out the shrink ending with: “You want to traumatize a little kid so you can hit on his mother?” A particularly poignant scene is in school where JR’s teacher tells the class to make invitations for a father/son breakfast. All the

children hand in their invitations, and in a touching moment, JR tells his teacher, “I don’t have a father.” Well, that crusty old grandpa stepped up to the plate and dressed in his Sunday’s finest; he fills in for the absentee father and charms the principal with his stories. Now, what would a growing-up experience be without unrequited love and older JR, played well and sympathetically by Tye Sheridan, has a full taste of that? While at Yale, he falls in love with Sidney, a beautiful but rather mean young woman played

by Briana Middleton, a rich girl from Connecticut who dangles sex over and over again, only to break his heart each time by declaring, “I’m seeing someone else.” We know, based on his memoir, that although he faced a rocky road, he eventually became successful and lived out his mother’s dreams for him.

The excellent production team consists of Martin Ruhe’s

cinematography, Dan Hiland and Todd Beckett’s sound design, Kalina Ivanov, Bryan Felty and Melissa Levander’s production design, and pulling all together Tanya M. Swerling editing.

THE TENDER BAR received some negative reviews, but I disagree with those colleagues.

Yes. There are no scenes that steal the film, no fake CGI moments, drive-by shootings, or car chases but simple storytelling. Under Clooney’s careful directorial hand, he lets the narrative unfold quietly but compellingly, making this a triumphant cinematic experience.

Tennis Australia say they ‘respect’ decision to deport Novak Djokovic

By Desert Star Staff Just one day before he was due to begin his Australian Open title defense, Djokovic was sent packing on Sunday. After a panel of federal court judges unanimously ruled in favor of the decision by Immigration Minister Alex Hawke to cancel the Serbian star’s visa.

The unvaccinated Djokovic had arrived Down Under with a medical exemption granted

by Tennis Australia and Victoria state officials, although that was deemed insufficient grounds for entry by border forces.

Amid criticism over their handling of the debacle – and calls from some quarters for CEO Craig Tiley to step down – Tennis Australia stated on www.desertstarweekly.com

Tuesday. Still, it omitted any direct reference to the ninetime Melbourne champion.

“We would like to make clear from the outset that we respect the decision of the Immigration Minister and the finding of the Federal Court of Australia over the weekend,” the message read.

Australian Open 2022 has now commenced, and our priority has always been to put on one of the world’s greatest sporting events and ensure we are delivering the best possible experience for all our players, the fans, and the community.

“The Australian Open is a showcase of Melbourne and Australia and is much loved by players from all over the world.

“Tennis Australia has been working closely with both the Federal and Victorian government for the past year to deliver a COVID safe Australian Open for the players, staff, and fans.

“Embarking on a major international sporting event during a global pandemic that continues to evolve and challenge us all is profoundly demanding for all stakeholders.

“The board and Member Associations commend the Tennis Australia CEO and the entire Tennis Australia team for their hard work and dedication to delivering a spectacular summer of tennis.”

Still avoiding any mention of Djokovic, who arrived back January 19, 2022

in Serbia to a hero’s welcome on Monday, the statement admitted that tennis officials “regretted” the impact of the drawn-out saga on players.

“As the Australian tennis family, we recognize that recent events have been a significant distraction for everyone, and we deeply regret the impact this had on all players,” it said.

“There are always lessons to learn, and we will review all aspects of our preparation and implementation to inform our planning – as we do every year.

That process always starts once the Australian Open champions have lifted their trophies.

“Australia has a strong and proud tennis tradition, and it has been fantastic to see the

crowds out cheering for the world’s best players in the lead up to and over the opening days of the Australian Open.

“We, like the players, and all tennis fans here and around the world, are keen for the focus to now be on the game we are all so passionate about.

“We are looking forward to a brilliant two weeks of tennis ahead,” it concluded.

Some were quick to pick up on the fact that the message was a response to Djokovic’s deportation – and yet did not mention him. “[Tennis Australia] released a statement on Djokovic saga without mentioning Djokovic.

Quite an achievement,” tweeted tennis journalist Sasa Ozmo.

MUSIC

BY ROBERT KINSLER

Outstanding Albums Kick Off 2022

A diverse field of wonderful early 2022 albums are featured in my column this week.

Artist: Brothers Osborne Title: Skeletons: Deluxe (EMI Nashville) You might like if you enjoy: Brothers Osborne’s first two albums, the Zac Brown Band Tell me more: Country music hitmakers Brothers Osborne (brothers T.J. Osborne and John Osborne) are set to reissue a deluxe expanded version of their acclaimed third album “Skeletons” on Jan. 21. The album is up for Best Country Album honors at the upcoming 64th annual Grammy Awards. Indeed, “Skeletons” features a myriad of strong tracks including the infectious opener “Lighten Up,” playful “All Night,” infectious “All The Good Ones Are,” tender “High Note” and rocking title track.

The trio of new tracks include the heavy countrified rocker “Headstone,” genre-blending “Midnight Rider’s Prayer” (which uses elements of Willie Nelson’s “On The Road Again”) and reflective synth-swept “Younger Me.” Information:

BrothersOsborne.com.

Artist: Cat Power Title: Covers (Domino Record Co.) You might like if you enjoy: Mazzy Star, Cat Power Tell me more: Cat Power — the moniker for indie singersongwriter Chan Marshall — is back with her third fulllength album of completely reworked covers. The wide range of material on “Covers” is impressive, and Marshall is able bind the selections together via her signature sound. These are sparse, multi-layered forays where the mood is as vital as the melody and the artful approach consistently works. Marshall’s version of “White Mustang” outdistances Lana Del Rey’s original with its probing authenticity; she brings an otherworldly sheen to the Pogues’ beloved “A Pair Of Brown Eyes” and Bob Seger’s “Against The Wind.” Other highlights on the album include a touching take on Jackson Browne’s “These Days,” reverbheavy reading of J.D. Miller’s country classic “It Wasn’t God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels,”

a gorgeous run through The Replacements’ “Here Comes a Regular” and dark version of Nick Cave’s foreboding “I Had a Dream Joe.” Information: CatPowerMusic.com.

Artist: Chris Church Title: Darling Please (Big Stir Records) You might like if you enjoy: Neil Young & Crazy Horse, Matthew Sweet, The War on Drugs Tell me more: Fans of the most recent albums from Neil Young & Crazy Horse (2021’s amazing “Barn”) and The War on Drugs (last year’s acclaimed “I Don’t Live Here Anymore”) will want to get a listen of Chris Church’s epic “Darling Please” (available on Jan. 21). It is no easy feat to blend crunchy and feedback-swept guitars, soaring textures and undeniable melodies together with the stylish skill displayed by Church on the 10-song masterwork.

Listening to this album, I was immediately impressed by the power and emotion of the songs; it is especially impressive that Church handles lead vocals as well as all the instrumental

Western Ave

By Desert Star Staff INDIO HILLS – Riverside County’s community clean-ups start-up for the year with a bulky waste disposal event in Indio Hills on Saturday, January 22.

The community clean-up will allow residents of Indio Hills to dispose of bulky waste items such as furniture, appliances, tires, and more, for free.

The items will be accepted at the Indio Hills Community Center in Indio Hills, 80-400 Dillon Rd., from 8 a.m. to noon or until bins are full.

Residents will need to unload their waste items out of their vehicle and wear a face covering if they are within six feet of a nonhousehold member.

“These clean-ups help the community,” said Supervisor V. Manuel Perez. “They provide

duties on the album. Standouts on the album abound include the majestic opener “History” (adorned by the sound of a church bell), dreamy rocker “We’re Going Downtown,” shimmering “Bad Summer” (the album’s first single), luxurious “I Wish I Could Say I Was Sorry and wistful disc-closing “Triple Crown.” “Darling Please” was actually recorded 11 years ago in Church’s basement studio in the wake of the death of his late brother Mike Church (who had played drums on most of Chris Church’s earlier work). The newly-remastered version is adorned with newly tracked backing vocals from Lindsay Murray (Gretchen’s Wheel) on several cuts that add to the magic. Information: BigStirRecords.com.

to inspire countless musicians around the world. Bob Wolfman — who befriended Hendrix as a 15-year-old teen in the late 1960s while on a chance visit to Manny’s Music Store in New York City — has released the aptly-titled “Tribute To A Friend” that celebrates the song craft and influence of Hendrix with a detailed and masterful touch.

Wolfman revisits a number of Hendrix-penned gems across the disc, including several lesser known nuggets; the grooving “Dolly Dagger” is bolstered by plenty of flashy lead guitar work and a funky vibe while “One Rainy Wish” erupts with a dynamic rhythm approach in its quiet and volcanic bursts.

“Freedom,” “Spanish Castle Magic” and “Gypsy Eyes” are among the well-known classics that Wolfman covers in stellar fashion. Wolfman brings an emotive and heartfelt firepower to the performances on the disc with his top-tier vocals and impressive guitar work.

He is joined by a strong field of surrounding players including guitarist-bassist Jon Butcher (who also produced the LP), Louisiana slide guitar great Sonny Landreth, keyboardist Bruce Mattson and drummer Barry Lit. In addition to the eight Hendrix compositions featured on the album, a take on Earl King’s “Come On (Let The Good Times Roll)” and his strong originals “Moon Candy” (enhanced

by Landreth’s amazing musicianship) and lovely instrumental “Parachute” round out the glowing track listing.

Bank of America Awards $1.6 Million to Inland Empire Nonprofits

By Desert Star Staff Philanthropic Grants and Donations Addressed Needs Related to Racial and Economic Inequality, Workforce Reskilling and Basic Needs San Bernardino and Riverside, Calif. – As part of its commitment to strengthening communities by addressing critical needs that help advance racial equality and economic opportunity, Bank of America awarded $1.6 million to 67 local nonprofits across the Inland Empire last year.

With a particular focus on closing the equity and wealth gaps in communities of color and other disadvantaged populations disproportionately impacted by the prolonged pandemic, Bank of America’s local giving was directed towards workforce development programs building pathways to employment and rebuilding careers, basic needs such

as hunger relief, healthcare and affordable housing; and small business support.

These philanthropic investments include: Neighborhood Builder grant to Martha’s Village and Kitchen to help provide additional wrap-around counseling, hygiene and shelter services, support its new Palm Springs center, and expand services into high poverty areas of Desert Hot Springs, Cathedral City and Mecca to service local farm workers.

Economic Development grant to Inland Empire Center for Entrepreneurship at California State University, San Bernardino, a new program to help minority-owned small businesses recover from the pandemic and provide lasting resiliency support to 250 local BIPOC-run businesses.

Community Development grant to Neighborhood Housing Services of the

Inland Empire to support LMI families and people of color in navigating through difficult economic times, preserving current homeownership, and working toward future financial and homeownership goals.

In addition to philanthropic capital, Bank of America also donated nearly 200,000 Personal Protection Equipment including masks, gloves and bottles of sanitizer; partnered with ten local nonprofits to distribute

free CVS Health flu vaccine vouchers in underserved communities, and local employees volunteered nearly 10,000 hours back to the community.

“While the pandemic continues to take a toll on us all, there’s no doubt it has a disproportionate impact on the communities already grappling with the effects of economic and social inequality. As a result, the private sector has a responsibility to provide

Tips Before Starting Major Repairs

By Kelly G. Richardson, Esq. CCAL One of the greatest challenges HOAs periodically face is major reconstruction.

Whether a new roof, balcony rehabilitation, or other major repairs, the typical volunteer board and professional manager are not regularly involved in hiring for such work. Therefore, many potential pitfalls can contribute to extra costs or risk.

Before sending the contract to legal counsel for review, consider these 12 planning tips.

only one type of payment arrangement. Depending upon the circumstances, a contractor might be hired on a “costplus” basis, in which the actual costs of the work are marked up by an agreed percentage.

Another type of arrangement is “time and materials,” in which the contractor charges an hourly rate for their labor and is reimbursed for the cost of the materials provided (with or without a markup).

Lowest bid? The cost of a project involving risks of substantial hidden damage (dry rot or termite, for example) may be very difficult for contractors WHAT does the HOA to estimate and could drive up need? HOAs often ask bidders the bid price. In that situation to recommend the association’s a “cost-plus” arrangement “scope of work,” meaning the might prove better for both description of the work, and sides, since the contractor is “specifications,” the specific not locked into a fixed price materials to be used.

United States, all payable at the time of sale, that certain property situated in said County, California describing the land therein as: AS MORE FULLY DESCRIBED IN SAID DEED OF TRUST The property heretofore described is being sold “as is”. The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 200 EAST RACQUET CLUB ROAD #53, PALM SPRINGS, CA 92262 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be made without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the Note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said Note(s), advances if any, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, estimated fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligations secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of this Notice of Trustee’s Sale is estimated to be $164,883.57 (Estimated). However, prepayment premiums, accrued interest and advances will increase this figure prior to sale. Beneficiary’s bid at said sale may include all or part of said amount. In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept a cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the California Financial Code and authorized to do business in California, or other such funds as may be acceptable to the Trustee. In the event tender other than cash is accepted, the Trustee may withhold the issuance of the Trustee’s Deed Upon Sale until funds become available to the payee or endorsee as a matter of right. The property offered for sale excludes all funds held on account by the property receiver, if applicable. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse.

Notice to Potential Bidders If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a Trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a Trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property.

You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you

Notice to Property Owner The sale date shown on this Notice of Sale may be postponed one or more times by the Mortgagee, Beneficiary, Trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about Trustee Sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call Auction.com at 800.280.2832 for information regarding the Trustee’s Sale or visit the Internet Website address www.Auction.com for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, CA0500002620-1S. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. Notice to Tenant NOTICE TO TENANT FOR FORECLOSURES AFTER JANUARY 1, 2021 You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call www.Auction.com, or visit this internet website https://tracker.auction. com/sb1079/, using the file number assigned to this case CA05000026-20-1S to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee.

Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

Take Steps to Support Literacy

8 ways to inspire children to read FAMILY FEATURES

R

eading is a foundation for learning, yet a vast gap exists in access to books for low-income neighborhoods.

According to the Handbook of Literacy Research, in low-income neighborhoods, the ratio of books per child is just one age-appropriate book for every 300 children.

Without books in the home, children lack the opportunity to practice reading skills and are exposed to fewer opportunities to build their vocabularies.

While these limitations can hinder personal performance, multiple studies correlate low literacy rates with social concerns like elevated drop-out rates, reliance on welfare programs and criminal activity.

Literacy is a cause that affects the community as a whole. Learn how you can champion literacy in your community with these tips:

Give Books to Children The joy of receiving and opening a gift is exciting in its own right, but a book is a gift that keeps giving. You can make a book gift extra special by choosing a topic or theme that has special meaning, such as a place you’d like to visit together or a beloved character you enjoy incorporating into your make-believe playtime with the child. As a bonus, if it’s age appropriate, read the book together for the first time so it always carries a special memory.

Visit the Library Libraries can be awe-inspiring places for kids. The wall-to-wall books represent thousands of possibilities. With so many options to choose from, you can introduce children to the delight of discovering different genres, enchanting topics and favorite authors who keep you coming back for more.

When children have their own library cards, they can practice the grown-up process of checking out and caring for books. What’s more, honoring due dates helps teach responsibility. Marking that date on the calendar is a fun way to build anticipation toward the next visit.

Support Organizations That Promote Literacy Conducting your business with companies that share your commitment to literacy is a way to inspire reading on a larger scale. One example is The UPS Store, which created the Toys for Tots Literacy Program in partnership with the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation to provide disadvantaged children with direct access to books and educational resources that enhance their ability to read and communicate effectively.

You can donate at participating locations or contribute online.

Create Reading-Inspired Traditions Children thrive on routines and rituals, and incorporating books into special moments can be an especially effective way to establish positive connections with books and the joy of reading. At home, traditions might be as simple as bedtime stories or reading parties where the whole family dons pajamas early and gathers in a room to read together, whether quietly or out loud. You can also tie reading traditions to special celebrations, like reading a favorite story together before heading to bed on the eve of a birthday or holiday.

Participate in Events Supporting Literacy Show your support by attending and participating in events that showcase the importance of reading. Examples might include book fairs and fundraisers for literacy programs in your community. You can also look into programs offered through your local library and community center. If you find a shortage of events in your area, consider creating one of your own, such as visiting a local senior living center and reading to residents or hosting a book swap or book club with your friends and neighbors.

Start a Neighborhood Library

Encourage Kids to Get Hands-On

Model Good Reading Habits for Kids

Reading a book is one way to demonstrate literacy, but kids can also develop a love for reading and put their comprehension skills into practice by adapting their favorite stories for playtime. That might mean acting out a different ending for a favorite story or drawing a picture from a scene they remember best. You can also promote literacy by encouraging kids to write songs or their own short stories, which they can illustrate for a finished book to share with others.

Recognizing not all kids have access to books at home, you can help promote an interest in reading by creating a mini library within your neighborhood. Create a small structure that will protect books from the elements and spread the word that the contents are free for the taking. Encourage users to return books when they’re done so another child can enjoy them and invite neighbors to donate their gently used books to help fill your library.

Children learn from the examples set by trusted grown-ups. Sharing your love of reading with a child demonstrates you value learning and education. You can encourage children to mimic your interest in reading by sharing stories about the books you enjoyed most when you were their age and choosing to spend quiet time reading together in place of screen time.
