‘Monday Minute’
By Desert Star Staff This Monday, we’ve got a question for you—have you noticed that quarantine has affected some people more than others? Some don’t seem to mind the alone time, while others struggle with it? In a similar way, several of our species here at the Zoo are more comfortable in groups, while others need plenty of space apart.
There are many reasons for this, mainly relating to evolution and natural behaviors. Species in the wild compete for resources such as food, water, and shelter and therefore needed to evolve in ways that gained them access to those resources. Sometimes hunting in packs lent the advantage, as is the case with African wild dogs; or, for an animal
like the jaguar, it is more beneficial not to compete with other predators, and so it evolved as a solo species. Here at The Living Desert, we have both group and solo animals and accommodate them all! Some things our staff hear all the time are comments regarding our solo animals. “They must be lonely” or “Are they sad
by themselves?” We are so glad that people care for the animals’ wellbeing as much as we do, but rest assured— these animals aren’t lonely at all! In the wild, solo animals (such as the jaguar, leopard, or mountain lion) come together only for breeding. Keep in mind that here at The Living Desert, each animal receives the same individual amount of care and attention,
whether they are alone or in a group. In some respects managing a group is actually more complicated because all resources need to be carefully and evenly distributed. For this reason, the station training that our animal care keepers perform is vital: this training ensures the animals willingly move to specific locations to receive food, medicine, and other reinforcements.
Pandemic Renews Concerns About Pet Population
By Desert Star Staff JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. - Animal welfare groups say the pandemic is exacerbating the overpopulation crisis for cats and dogs. According to Lisa Lange, senior vice president of communications with “People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals,” more than six million cats and dogs enter shelters in the U.S. each year. And with COVID-19 safety protocols in place, she explains shelters are unable to let people come in for pet adoptions, or host off-site adoption events. “And yet there’s still a flow of animals coming in, made worse by people being
out of a job,” says Lange. “So, we’re getting reports from around the country that people are giving up their animals because they can’t afford to keep them anymore.” A survey conducted before the pandemic estimated that 44% of Missouri pet owners struggle to afford their pets. Lange says prevention is the best solution, and her group encourages spaying and neutering for cats and dogs. According to PETA, one female dog and her puppies can result in the births of 67,000 dogs in just six years.

There’s Something About Evia
By Anthony Grant Back in December, on the sidelines of the prestigious Invest in Greece Forum in New York City, I asked the energetic Greek Minister of Tourism Harry Theoharis if he has a favorite destination in Greece. While he wouldn’t be drawn on this (it’s hard to play favorites, after all, when you represent an entire country), he did offer a clue: “I come from the mountains, so I prefer the mountains to the sea,” he said. “People don’t realize that Greece is 80% mountains.” But venture into the wilds of Evia (also called Euboea), which is the biggest Greek
island after Crete, and you’ll realize pretty quickly just how mountainous Greece is. Vertiginous peaks and switchback roads to match, untamed cliffs plunging to the infinite blue’d Aegean (channeling Homer there, but just wait) and hidden villages almost bafflingly Alpine in character (but with al fresco souvlaki spots reminding you where you are), Evia is an island whose jagged contours smack you like early ‘80s U2 or Game of Thrones in a parallel universe where GOT is actually real.

Groups Demand Higher Taxes on Wealthy to Address Issues of Budget Equity By Desert Star Staff SACRAMENTO, Calif. -Groups that fight for racial and economic justice are rallying across California this week, asking for higher taxes on the wealthy instead of budget cuts that disproportionately affect lower-income families. Without a major infusion of state or federal dollars, the state budget
will cut tens of billions from schools, health care and other important community services. Melissa Romero, legislative affairs manager for the California League of Conservation Voters, said corporations and high earners should contribute more. “We can actually move forward in a way that gives people clean air, clean water,
affordable housing, livingwage jobs, quality health care, quality education,” she said. “You know, it shouldn’t be either/or. There needs to be another way.” The week of action for the “Commit to Equity” campaign began with a car rally at the State Capitol on Monday, where organizers asked for greater investment in
vulnerable communities of color. On Tuesday, organizers held a similar “car party” protest in San Francisco and Fresno. Tomorrow, the campaign moves to San Diego and Los Angeles. A new study from Americans for Tax Fairness, Health Care for America Now and Health Access California showed that in the first three months of the pandemic, the wealth held by 154 billionaires in the state jumped by 25%. Meanwhile, Romero noted that essential workers such as nurses, bus drivers, daycare teachers and grocery-
store clerks are bearing the brunt of the economic crisis. “We see it everywhere we go,” she said. “People are thanking and celebrating essential workers who are risking their lives every day, who are disproportionately holding up our economy. We need to show up for them.” More than a dozen nonprofits are sponsoring the campaign, representing labor, health, environment, social and racial justice groups. More information is online at CommittoEquity.org. The billionaires report is online at health-access.org.

Cultural Revolutions with Evil Players will try to Change America

Russia during the Bolshevik Revolution, in which 60 Million died: The France Revolution with 60 Million deaths. The revolutionaries removed all sources of culture that preceded them: China’s Cultural Revolution claimed 20 Million lives, while also destroying statues, manuscripts, scrolls, books.

Ireland, and Scotland left about One Million dead. Ireland’s population decreased by 40% by Cromwell’s army who killed men, woman, and children, many who starved to death: Before 1789, France was considered a great civilization, but in the 1789 Revolution, 40,000 were killed in a civil war, and France was reduced to hellish chaos and later in the Napoleonic wars that follow, over Six million people died. Throughout all these wars, revolutionaries sought to destroy all reminders of history and remove art treasures and all cultural documents, statues, churches, and palaces. Again, old icons of the past were gone forever. History has repeated itself. I do believe that we can learn much better ways to continue building our Country, than to destroy our history. Millions of dollars will already be needed to repair damages caused by riots. And sadly, it is not the average American causing this, it is the groups
that hate America. I believe evil forces are wanting to destroy America. There is lots of money behind all of these riots. And when the COVID happened, it created the perfect storm. We will know the truth one day of how the COVID was paid for by the wealthy, who want to take over the world. Many happenings seemed to be a plot to continue to divide us as a people. I believe it was all plotted before President Trump was even elected. For those who want us to lose our world power, this administration was a blessing to the evil powers trying to take America down, as our President is the most controversial President we have ever had. The things that are occurring is to prepare us for the new world, which will wipe out the middle class, change our currency to digital (crypto), replace human equity with robots, create an economy in which we are dependent on doing what the government tells us to do. The middle classes are
the workers who have worked and supported the lower level and the higher class, But our middle class is shrinking. And, as I have stated previously, our greatest threat is the elimination of the middle class. Some want Free healthcare for everyone. Some want bigger government, but why do people really think that it is all FREE. Nothing is free. Most things that are free take away your liberties. When I lived in New York, I worked at two Mafia restaurants. Offers were made to me that would make me very wealthy. However, we all knew when the Mafia owns you, that you never escape. Just like free healthcare, the free stimulus will all make us more dependent on the government. Then one day, when we all demand our freedom back, we will learn the cost of FREE. What built our Country was hard work and a purpose to live freely. Now for all those on the government dole and do not wish to work, there are currently
no jobs to go to. Thus, this perfect storm works great for them. Many are getting paid to riot and create the Great Divide. If we want to remember the great way America has been, we must have the strength and perseverance to overcome the villains, possibly, the World Bank! I have traveled all over the world, and there is no Country as great to live in as America.
By Kelly G. Richardson, Esq. As the seesaw battle of the COVID-19 pandemic continues, HOA boards and managers are torn between the fear of reopening amenities and the desire of residents to enjoy their use. Pools, gyms, and tennis courts are hot issues now as HOAs try to return toward normalcy. Most County Health Departments have specific guidance regarding reopening amenities such as pools, gyms, or tennis courts. In addition, the Center for Disease Control (CDC.gov) and the California Department of Public Health have helpful on-line information. The Community Associations Institute published a comprehensive ten-page document titled “Healthy Communities,” addressing HOAs and the COVID-19 pandemic. It can be
or by an internet search for “CAI Healthy Communities.” Liability concerns regarding reopening involve at least two areas – alleged carelessness regarding reopening the amenity or guaranteeing the users’ safety. Most counties have established minimum guidelines of operation regarding reopening of amenities, and HOAs should meet those standards. That can be powerful evidence that can help the HOA in the event a user tried to cast blame for contracting the virus. Another problem is appearing to make a promise the HOA cannot keep. If the user follows all the usage rules, does that guarantee that the user will be safe from the virus? Of course not, so avoid making statements that promise that the rules are to keep the users
guidelines will prevent any virus transmission, that there is always a risk of other users failing to follow safe practices, and that users should decide upon the level of risk they are willing to accept. Many HOAs are rushing to have all users sign blanket waiver documents purporting to release the HOA, its board and management from any liability. Consult with HOA legal counsel about the enforceability of blanket releases and consider if the HOA has sufficient staffing to ensure that each user signs the release. California law allows boards to adopt emergency rules, and rules to reopen amenities during the pandemic would fit that description. Those rules should be adopted by the board in open session, and legally only have a maximum duration of 120 days. Consider posting the emergency rules at each amenity entrance, along with a disclaimer reminding users that the rules are no guarantee of safety. Be careful to avoid creating unenforceable rules. Some of the guidelines are not mandatory. Also avoid creating rules the HOA is unable to enforce. One method of
enforcement is to have a staff person monitoring compliance, but many HOAs are unable to dedicate a staff member to monitor each amenity. Consider the option of having residents report violations by users. The rules are connected to serious health safety considerations regarding a virus which has killed over 120,000 Americans. This might merit a larger than normal fine. Remember that fines should not be punitive but should be a deterrent. Finally, remember that while reopening of HOA amenities is not mandatory, the emotional health of community residents may benefit greatly from a thoughtful and carefully phased reopening of amenities as permitted by local government. This is a tough time, but we will all get through it. Stay safe and stay healthy.

HOROSCOPES ARIES
An unusual time begins for you with new views of yourself in relationship to others and a new way of working in the world (with others). Careful with communication, create a time for regular exercise, review supplements and vitamins. Sometimes fire signs can’t maintain a regular constant regimen. However, it’s vital to your present future tasks, upcoming demands and essential to health and longevity.
TAURUS In many ways you’re becoming more like Pisces. This is not disheartening. It’s rather special having Pisces’ compassionate characteristics. Yes, it’s difficult to perceive earth realities, difficult to walk a straight line and keep balance. Sometimes you stumble along, knowing only the present moment is real. Even with all these physical obstructions, seeing differently as you do, you still “save the world”. Your protector is the elephant god Ganesh. Pray to him to remove all hindrances and obstacles.
GEMINI The message each week seems the same – the community and groups you will participate in, the duality you present, the love and synthesis gifts for Gemini from Sirius. Soon you must begin to discern which groups are part of the New Group of World Servers, the people of Goodwill. It

is important to discriminate between the real and the false light. What groups are you magnetized toward? What calls to you each day? What voices are you listening to?
CANCER So many things are ending, culminating. Long held hopes and wishes are falling away. What new opportunities do you now seek? As you study new information, especially about herbs, flowers, roots, foods and gardening, you will understand more how to safeguard and sustain yourself and family. Know the devas in the gardens have a deep love for you. They offer a high vibrational yet subtle healing.
LEO In the next year, as your horizons expand, you will enter new groups and endeavors. And find new friends that love you. You continue to wonder about lands far away. The unusual and culturally different places and people are of interest to you. You’re ready soon for a new reality. See the next year as a philosophical adventure containing new rhythms. You still have relationship wounds hidden away. Water and forgiveness help.
VIRGO Summon and act upon values that make you feel empowered. In the next months your values may change. Be aware of this. You like to be practical and
down to earth. Use your money to empower yourself and to empower and assist others. The past is over. New messages need to be sent. Be aware of impatience and impulsiveness with spending. Use resources with deep respect and with gratitude. And to serve.
LIBRA Good yet unusual events unexpectedly occur in the next months. As realities shift and change in the world, create deeper roots where you live and with those you care for and love. Use resources wisely. Grow a vegetable garden. Get a green house. Prepare for a different future. Ask one’s partner and/or friends about goals, dreams, wishes, hopes, fears. Come from the heart, always. You are fierce and independent sometimes. Slow down and rest a bit.
SCORPIO In all things, especially food, diet, health, exercise there must be a constancy and regularity. A daily rhythm. This will be a challenge. The chaos in our world can create tension and fear, unevenness and chaos. Anything in excess over time creates a health situation. Observe your health with care. Ask if your daily work serves you. Over time, your spiritual courage will change either the work you do or your perceptions about work. When you speak (write) people listen.
SAGITTARIUS
You will have days of transformation and days of harmony, days of sadness and days of ease and beauty. This tension creates attention to creating a new life, new essential artistic things (artistic) as you express yourself differently. Each day, plan on enhancing and improving everything around you. You are the steward of your life. In between, you need a new sense of play, of fun and pleasure, and new towns and cities to explore.
CAPRICORN At times we all want to flee our world and run away from home. Running is good (for exercise, to run a race), but always you come home again. Mars is keeping you home, close to the land and perhaps in a garden. You are remembering your early life, the events and situations and people of long ago. You’re attempting to understand the psychological structures of your upbringing. It gives you a new sense of self identity. Mother played a big part in this. Write.
ask about their lives. Careful with money and resources. Write in your journal every day about your everyday life. You’re learning life is magical.
PISCES You’re in deep waters, on the edge of new archetypes, waiting for new realities, developing new values, learning about resources and money, Right Stewardship and Right Timing. You want to begin something. You seek a refuge and safe haven for self and other. In Permaculture, which observes living systems and how they relate, “the most diversity exists at the edges. It is here that change happens naturally.” Remain always at the edge. Life, creative and on the edge, happens there.

AQUARIUS Are you learning new information, in a new environment. Is it offering you a new philosophy, a new sense of understanding the world? Is your neighborhood one that inspires you, offers a greater view of life? It is good to be in contact with brothers and sisters, relatives, family. Everyone’s changing. You are, too.

Cancellation of Atlantic Coast Pipeline Called Victory for Environmentalists
By Desert Star Staff CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Climate-change activists celebrated the landmark decision to abandon the 600-mile Atlantic Coast Pipeline project Sunday, calling it a surprising victory for environmentalists who fought the pipeline for years. Backers of the project, Dominion Energy and its partner Duke Energy, canceled it over the weekend, ending a six-year effort to build the natural-gas pipeline from West Virginia through Virginia into eastern North Carolina. The Supreme Court had just ruled that the pipeline could progress across the Appalachian Trail, according to Jim Kotcon, political chair with the Sierra Club’s West Virginia chapter. Despite this, he said he thinks Dominion and Duke finally realized the project was too risky and unnecessary. “We have been saying for a number of years that climate change is a real issue, that we need to be phasing out the use

of fossil fuels,” Kotcon said. “So, we feel gratified that that reality has finally sunk in with Dominion.” West Virginia’s Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin said in a statement that he was disappointed with the cancellation. He noted the infrastructure project would have created good-paying construction and manufacturing jobs for West Virginians. In June, a circuit court denied a state air-pollution control permit for the project to build a natural-gas compressor station in Buckingham County, Virginia. The county’s African-American town of Union Hill raised national concern over the project’s impact on the community. Kotcon said that rejection, and other rulings, were a blow to the plans. He pointed out that under the Environmental Protection Agency’s environmental-justice laws, the pipeline route and construction were supposed to avoid burdening minority and

‘Hamilton’ Available on Disney+
By Theda Kleinhans Reichman Lin-Manuel Miranda’s “Hamilton,” inspired by Ron Chernow’s 2004 biography, was a smash hit on Broadway. With its hip-hop style and mostly minority casting, the
show became a sensation. When it debuted, it was almost impossible to get a ticket, and if you could, the cost was genuinely high. But now the show is available on Disney+. And if you aren’t
sure what Hamilton actually looked like, just whip out a ten-dollar bill--and there he is. Hamilton, described by Aaron Burr as “the bastard orphan son of a whore and a Scotsman,” was born on an
island in the Caribbean. A soldier, statesman, and legal scholar, Hamilton founded our banking system and was the first U.S. Secretary of the Treasury under George Washington. Unfortunately, in 1804 he was shot to death in a duel with Vice-President Aaron Burr. He was just 47 years old. Burr died Sept. 14, 1836, at the age of 80. Miranda’s lyrics tell us that Hamilton was like his country--”young, scrappy, and hungry/ And I’m not throwing away my shot.” In 2016 “Hamilton” garnered 11 Tony Awards, including a Tony for “Best Musical” and musical score. Leslie Odem, Jr. won a Tony for his portrayal of the bitterly envious Aaron Burr. Daveed Diggs, another Tony winner, shines in the dual roles of Layfayette and Thomas Jefferson.
Both Burr and Hamilton shared an interest in the wealthy Schuyler sisters of New York. In the end, Hamilton marries Eliza (Phillipa Soo), but it’s her sister Angelica (Renee Elise Goldsberry) he can’t seem to forget. Goldsberry, who won a Tony for her portrayal, wows us when she sings the very satisfying “Satisfied.” Jonathan Groff is hilarious as King George who expresses his fury with his former subjects as he sings “I’ll kill your friends and family to remind you of my love/da da da da da.” If you missed seeing “Hamilton” on July 3, it remains available to screen on Disney+. With Broadway and roadshow theaters dark all around the country, this is an accessible and affordable alternative. It’s well worth watching this groundbreaking production.
Aviation Labor Leaders Call for Extending Relief to Avoid Layoffs By Desert Star Staff DENVER -- America’s pilots, machinists, flight attendants and other unionized, airline industry workers are calling on Congress to extend emergency relief designed to keep airline employees on the payroll with benefits. Dan Mauer, director of government affairs for Communications Workers of America, says the Payroll Support Program in the CARES Act is essential for keeping the nation’s airline industry viable, during and after the pandemic. He points out if credentialed and experienced workers are laid off, airlines can’t hire just anyone to take their place. “From the ground service agents to the flight attendants and the pilots, if you don’t have those people who are trained -- who have the proper background, who have gone through all the checks that they need -- you’re not going to be able to fly a plane safely,” he stresses. Mauer says keeping credentialed workers is
essential for consumer confidence as airlines resume full capacity operations, because travelers will want to know it’s safe to start flying again. Some lawmakers opposed to government intervention in the marketplace are reluctant to advance new aid packages. Mauer says if hundreds of thousands of airline workers are laid off, the economic hit at major hubs, including Denver International Airport, would be felt throughout Colorado, and would put additional stress on the state’s unemployment and other safety-net programs. He also says government intervention is the right thing to do, at this moment, to Funding through the Payroll Support Program in the CARES Act has kept hundreds of thousands of airline protect an industry integral to the nation’s economy. workers employed and covered under their health-care plans during the coronavirus pandemic.

Too Far from the Bar, New CD from Sugar Ray and the Bluetones By Desert Star Staff Severn Records announces a September 18 release date for Too Far from the Bar, the new album from Sugar Ray and the Bluetones, featuring Little Charlie Baty. Produced by Duke Robillard, who also adds his tasty guitar licks to four tracks on the new disc, Too Far from the Bar was recorded at Severn Sound Studio in Annapolis, Maryland, and boasts a value-packed 15 tracks, including several original songs penned by the band’s members, showcasing their songwriting abilities as one of the group’s many strengths. The core band for the recording sessions was comprised of Sugar Ray Norcia - vocals and harmonica; Charlie Baty – guitar; Anthony Geraci – piano; Michael Mudcat Ward – acoustic bass; and Neil Gouvin – drums. The new album marks one of the last recordings from beloved/acclaimed guitarist Charlie Baty, who passed away unexpectedly in March of this year. Baty also contributed liner notes to the album, putting a perspective on when he first met and heard Sugar Ray Norcia and relating the genesis for them recording together. He was in splendid form throughout the sessions, spicing up the songs with his retro guitar tones adding just the right touches to each track. “Little Charlie was so excited about this project and what a thrill it was to record together,” Sugar Ray Norcia says about the sessions. “Charlie and I seem to have been cut from the same cloth, and musically we were like two peas in a pod. On this recording, we swing, we jump, and we get low down. Sadly I’ll miss my brother in the blues, but his music will live forever.” “Producing this album was extremely special for me,” Duke Robillard adds. “Sugar Ray and the boys - who I’ve known forever it seems - plus Little Charlie on guitar was obviously going to be a killer combination. There was just no doubt about it. Right from the first track, it was in the groove. Ray and the guys had written some great material, and Sugar pulled out a few obscure tunes that knocked me out. Helping pick takes and make suggestions was part of my job, but the vibe and flow of the session made it smooth enough that I even jumped in for a few numbers! The band got to do a few tours with Charlie in the guitar seat, and I was fortunate to do one of them on the second guitar. These guys were so hot on this session they even set one of the multitrack tape machines on fire!” The incident Robillard is referring to is noted in the searing, appropriately-titled original instrumental, “Reel Burner,” which is also reprised at the end of the album on an alternate take. It’s one of nine original songs on Too Far from the Bar written by

Norcia, Ward, or Geraci. The cover tunes picked are the cream-of-the-crop, with “Don’t Give No More Than You Can Take,” a jumping number initially recorded by the 5 Royales kicking things off in grand style. Other choice covers come from the likes of Sonny Boy Williamson (“Bluebird Blues”), Little Walter (“Can’t Hold Out”), Jerry McCain (“My Next Door Neighbor’) and Otis Spann (”What Will Become of Me” - with pianist Anthony Geraci channeling the spirits of both Otis Spann and Pinetop Perkins), as well as the blues/jazz chestnut, “I Got a Right to Sing the Blues.” As Charlie Baty closes in his liner notes, “This historic CD features many original tunes and some spirited guitar exchanges between Duke Robillard and myself. It features the stellar vocals of Ray Norcia
and his incredible harp playing.

WITH LADY BEVERLY COHN
Jeremy Hersh’s Quietly Powerful “The Surrogate” There is something uniquely theatrical in writer/ director Jeremy Hersh’s intimate film, The Surrogate. This insightful story unfolds almost as if you were watching a play with the highly professional acting associated with that art form. The characters are totally developed, supporting the believable, excellent dialogue. The well-honed script presents a penetrating look at the struggle between three friends who are faced with an ethical and perhaps even a moral dilemma. Jess, exquisitely brought to life by a very talented Jasmine Batchelor is best friends with Josh, tenderly played by Chris Perfetti, and his husband Aaron, well played by Sullivan Jones. They want to have a baby and Jess has agreed to be the egg donor and surrogate. The dipstick turned pink and they are jubilant that she tested positive and a new life has begun. They have agreed to cover all the attendant expenses to having their baby and the three of them are delighted. Jess continues her work as a web designer for a local non-profit and it seems all is well. There are lots of fun dinners, yoga classes, laughter, and great excitement over the arrival of the baby. All is well until they receive some unsettling news. After the third month,
the prenatal test is positive for Down syndrome and thus begins a painful decision journey for the three friends. Jess wants more information and the three of them go to a community center that specializes in working with Down children. It appears to be a happy place and the children are engaged in all sorts of activities. There Jess meets young, really adorable Leon, beautifully played by Down actor Leon Lewis, and his devoted mother Bridget, excellently played by Brooke Bloom. Jess asks if she could visit their home. Bridget says yes and invites her for dinner during which she shares her experiences in raising her child, some of which are quite challenging. Leon is reasonably verbal and cheerfully responds to whatever instructions he receives from his mom. Back at Josh and Aaron’s apartment in Williamsburg Brooklyn, the guys are clearly conflicted and are having second thoughts on the prospects of raising a Down child, citing what they perceive to be the on-going attendant costs. With much sadness, they tell her that they decided they don’t want to have the child and ask her to abort the fetus and, at the moment, she agrees. To find a temporary respite from the horrible choice that lies before her, Jess has sex with her old

Photo Courtesy of Monument Releasing boyfriend Nate, a really sweet guy characterized by Brandon Micheal Hall. He wants to marry her and says he will be supportive of whatever she decides, whether her decision is to abort or not to abort, in which case he would help her raise the child. At 29 years of age, and apparently commitment phobic, Jess doesn’t want to get married or even have a steady boyfriend. After giving it a great deal of thought, she decides that

she does not want to abort and goes to her mother, Karen (Tonya Pinkins) to seek $100,000 from the trust fund left by her grandparents and would use the funds to buy a house for she and the baby. With a Masters Degree from Columbia, her mom patiently points out the pitfalls of raising a special needs child and refuses the request. She defends herself pointing out all the money she donates to charities with Jess shooting back that such generosity was to “assuage guilt for living a privileged life.” In the meantime, Josh and Aaron are under the impression that she is going to have an abortion. The day before the scheduled procedure, Jess goes back to her friends to try to reason with them, saying they could co-parent the child, but Josh has an unpleasant memory from his childhood of a Down kid named Devon and doesn’t want that for his child. In a heartfelt plea, he tries to explain that being a gay married couple was hard enough which is why they want to at least have a normal kid. She doesn’t commit one way or the other and moves in with her loving sister Samantha, sympathetically played by Eboni Booth.
Pandemic Renews Concerns About Pet Population Continued from Page 1
Instead of purchasing a pet from a breeder, Lange urges Missourians to always adopt from animal shelters. Right now, many www.desertstarweekly.com
are holding appointmentbased adoptions. She notes a silver lining to the pandemic has been the uptick in people becoming pet foster parents, which takes pressure off
the shelter system. “Really, in the best of all possible worlds, shelters should have a small number of animals,” says Lange. “But we shouldn’t be seeing animals breeding anymore. July 8, 2020
We have far too many homeless animals, all of whom are deserving of good homes. But we need to bring that number down. “ She adds that low-cost and free spay-and-neuter
The guys visit Jess at her sister’s house and propose that instead of aborting the child that they put it up for adoption. At that point, Jess gets angry and refuses that suggestion telling them she is going to have the child and that they will never be allowed to visit. Still there is the slightest question mark as to what action she will ultimately undertake and we are left with a lovely cliffhanger. The Surrogate, which is director Hersh’s first feature, is a pitch perfect, fascinating, well-crafted, highly intelligent film. His narrative does not take a moral position on abortion and allows each of his characters to make his or her own case, as to abort or not to abort, in nondiatribe, non-exploitative, crisp dialogue, with valid points of view. Enhancing this captivating, excellent movie with his extremely fine theatre trained acting ensemble, is his production crew starting with Mia Cioffi Henry’s sensitive cinematography, D’Vaughn Agu’s delicate production design, culminating with Cecilia Delgado’s spot-on editing, all working together for this absorbing 93-minute Indy film which can be viewed through the Vimeo on Demand platform.
programs, often available through humane societies or veterinarians, are key to the overpopulation crisis. And she says people should encourage their local governments to subsidize these programs.

American Artists Lift Voices in 2020
The brilliant artistry of The Staple Singers is featured on a series of essential reissues, while new releases from Southern duo Larkin Poe and New York Cityspawned Rock and Roll Hall of Fame legend Dion are among the great titles of the first half of 2020.
On” (1976), “Family Tree” (1977) and “Unlock Your Mind” (1978). During the 1970s, the Staple Singers had 13 singles on the U.S. Pop chart and 20 on the U.S. R&B chart. Many of those singles are included here, as well as other outstanding cuts that captured the magic of Roebuck Artist: The Staple Singers “Pops,” Mavis, Cleotha and Titles: Let’s Do It Again: Yvonne Staples blending funk, Soundtrack; Pass It On; gospel and R&B. “Let’s Do It Family Tree; Unlock Your Again” was the soundtrack for the Mind (Omnivore Recordings) Sidney Poitier-directed film, with You might like if you enjoy: the music produced by Curtis Mavis Staples, Betty Mayfield.

voices with disco stylings; Mavis Staples is heard in one of her alltime great vocal performances on a poignant cover of “I Honestly Love You.” Rounding out the handful of new reissues is “Unlock Your Mind,” a fantastic set of inspired tracks ranging from soul-funk romp “Chica Boom” and scorching “Don’t Burn Me” to a magical dance-minded cover of the ELO hit “Showdown, a rockabilly-styled take on the 1953 classic “Mystery Train” and the dazzling gospel explosion “God Can.” Each of the reissues is bolstered by bonus tracks and has been lovingly remastered by Grammy winners Cheryl Pawelski and Michael Graves, with a wealth of historic photos and ephemera in colorful multi-page booklets. The four new Staples editions feature liner notes from Grammy Award winning writer (and Stax musicologist) Rob Bowman. Information: OmnivoreRecordings.com. Artist: Larkin Poe Title: Self Made Man (Tricki-Woo Records)
You might like if you enjoy: Larkin Poe, Samantha Fish, The Record Company Tell me more: Larkin Poe – sisters Rebecca Lovell and Megan Lovell – reach new heights on their stellar new LP “Self Made Man.” The hardhitting material on their fifth studio album is ideally suited for the Nashville-based duo’s freewheeling approach with heavy Southern blues rockers “She’s A Self Made Man” and “Holy Ghost Fire,” the vocals-heavy “Keep Diggin’,” inspired “Back Down South” and Delta blues dive “Danger Angel” fully celebrating the sisters’ Southern roots with a decidedly contemporary sonic edge. Megan’s soulful soprano shines across the disc, as evidenced by her amazing vocals on “God Moves On The Water,” the soulful ballad “Every Bird That Flies” and lush “Tears Of Blue To Gold.” Everywhere, Megan Lovell’s artful and dazzling work lap steel guitar work and backing vocals lend welcome power and depth to the material. One of this summer’s most exciting
and welcome new releases. Information: LarkinPoe.com. Artist: Dion Title: Blues With Friends (KTBA Records) You might like if you enjoy: Dion, Joe Bonamassa, Bruce Springsteen Tell me more: Listening to the great songs that fill Dion’s “Blues With Friends” it’s no wonder that the album has been greeted by universal acclaim. A who’s who of classic rock favorites and blues heroes join Dion, now 80, on this top-tier return. Among the many highlights on the collection are the super-charged opener “Blues Comin’ On” (with guitar master Joe Bonamassa), the playful “Bam Bang Boom” (featuring ZZ Top’s Billy Gibbons on lead guitar), the gospel-minded LP closer “Hymn To Him” (with guests Bruce Springsteen and Patti Scialfa). On the Chicago blues gem “I Got Nothin’,” Van Morrison and Joe Louis Walker add their firepower to the evocative tale; Jeff Beck’s stately fret work enhances the gorgeous Memphis blues ballad “Can’t Start Over Again.” Stray Cat Brian Setzer adds his fiery guitar work on the rockabillyflavored “Uptown Number 7.” My favorite track is “Song For Sam Cooke (Here In America),” an autobiographical song detailing Dion’s experiences touring with the late soul music legend in the early 1960s (Paul Simon lends his vocal harmonies). Elsewhere, Dion is joined by the likes of slide great Sonny Landreth, blues guitarist Samantha Fish and Steven Van Zandt. And just for the record, Dion sounds fantastic across the album.

Utility Cutoffs to Resume; a “Catastrophic” Hardship for Some By Desert Star Staff A ban on West Virginia utility shutoffs during the pandemic has ended this week, leaving many customers scrambling to pay overdue bills to avoid disconnection. In March, the West Virginia Public Service Commission had ordered electric, water and gas providers to halt service disconnections, as so many people faced COVID-19related unemployment. And although the state continues to reopen, Seth DiStefano policy outreach director with the West Virginia Center on Budget and Policy - says the financial burden continues for many households. “What we’re going to have here is, you know, in addition to skyrocketing food insecurity, you know, in addition to people being worried about just simply putting food on the table,” says DiStefano, “they very well may not have water to

He calls the unemployment provision in the CARES Act the single biggest factor in keeping West Virginia’s economy from completely collapsing. But that portion, $600 a week, is set to expire at the end of the month. “That $600 a week is keeping the rent paid, it’s keeping utilities on,” says DiStefano, “If that goes away, it is going to be catastrophic, I think.

Los Angeles of the Late 1930’s Chronicled In Showtime’s “Penny Dreadful”
By Jack Lyons Theatre and Film Critic Member American Theatre Critics Association Los Angeles California today is a sprawling, iconic, American city that defies categorizing because it’s constantly reinventing itself. It’s better known worldwide for its Hollywood film industry history and its “dream factories” that produced the stuff that those dreams were made of for over 100 years. Hollywood movies came in the form of celluloid gift packages to dull the pain of the Great Depression with millions out of work, and soup kitchens a common sight. Broadway may have its Great White Way, a street of four blocks or so lined with live theatre venues in the middle of New York City, but Hollywood has the magic of the camera with the intimacy of the close-up along with its freedom to roam and its ability to reach worldwide audiences and capture their minds and imaginations, if not forever, then at least, for a couple of hours. And all for the price of about 10 cents a ticket when I was growing up. That combination proved too seductive and too profitable to pass up for the early Hollywood pioneer moguls and their studio executives back in the salad days of movies. This newly discovered power and sophistication that was “film”, however, came with great responsibility. Yes, we did indeed, inform, influence and promote the product without interference from the law back in the late 1920’s and early ‘30’s. Eventually, however, movies began pushing the envelope too hard and too fast as a way to make movies more relevant as to what was taking place in society. Being told to clean up its depictions of life, language, and sex in its movies or face government oversight – which the studios then did – until, that is, the sexual revolution of the 1960’s arrived. Quickly, both Hollywood and world cinema producers returned to the societal mores and acceptance of the “swinging ‘60’s and beyond. Once the 21st century arrived Hollywood producers took off their family-styled moviemaking gloves opting for the high octane action films and adult themed movies in pushing the envelope once again. When new emerging streaming platforms via the internet, became popular the producers quickly adapted the vernacular of street language which now ends up serving as the dialogue of the characters in many films. The 2020 worldwide pandemic of Coronavitus-19, however, changed everything connected with the entertainment industry possibly forever. This brings us to the Showtime presentation currently www.desertstarweekly.com
being screened across the country on various streaming platforms. “Penny Dreadful: City of Angels” is a taut, well made television series that features ten episodes, each boasting an engaging and fascinating storyline, loaded with superb performances from a gifted cast who breathe life into a long forgotten story about LA’s race relations that’s been festering in “LaLa land” for decades. The tensions between LA’s Chicano community and the corrupt white power structure within the city government of 80 years ago centers around the more militant factions of young Mexican-Americans known as ‘Pachucos. They were eager to confront the White power structures by provocation, intimidation and confrontation. Simply put, the Spanish speaking population became citizen/victims in their own city by those charged to govern and protect them. White privilege had been effectively controlling and pressuring them by law, into ghetto-like East LA neighborhoods for years. Corrupt and greedy politicians were ably abetted by a brutal and bigoted LA Police Department. The elements of fear of other cultures plus the loss of power and governance by White privilege made Los Angeles of the late 1930’s a white-hot, race relations melting pot, just waiting to boil over. “City of Angels”, the Showtime TV movie series, is a powerfully relevant TV series and a sharp reminder not only of why the painful American Civil War of 1861 was fought, only later to introduce new Jim Crow laws in the South. These laws were the forerunners of the 2019/2020 societal movements like “Black Lives Matter”, along with changing attitudes of many Southern states when it comes to the troublesome legacy of the four year old Confederacy (1861 –1865) and its impact on today’s modern America after the conflict ended 155 years ago. Time is now on the side of righting the wrongs of the past, not just for AfricanAmericans, but for Mexican Americans, Asian-Americans, and Native-Americans as well. “City of Angels” as a whole, is a dark, gritty, raw, fantasy-fueled TV drama series created by writer/director John Logan that is set in Los Angeles in 1938. It’s a time fraught with racial tensions between the Mexican-American community and LA’s city government and police force. The characters are connected via the conflict between the Mexican folklore deities of Santa Muerta (Lorenza Izzo), the caretaker of the dead and guide to the great beyond and by Magda, her malevolent provocateur sister of chaos who believes mankind is inherently evil and aims to prove her point. Magda is sensationally portrayed by Natalie Dormer
in a tour de force performance playing four different characters: Magda/ Rio/ Elsa/Alex, throughout all ten episodes. “City of Angels” is a classic good vs. evil tale told amid a passionate love story between Detective Vega (Daniel Zavatto) and Sister Molly Finnister (Kerry Bische), a host of a mega radio church in downtown Los Angeles. Their on-screen chemistry is palpable and their in-the-moment performances are compelling and poignant. Additionally, Ms. Bishe is an actor the camera loves. Young, beautiful and talented she delivers a series of haunting moments in all her scenes; especially those with Mr. Zavatto. Detective Tiago Vega (Daniel Zovatto) LA’s handsome and dedicated first MexicanAmerican police detective and his partner veteran detective Lewis Michner (a terrific Emmy worthy performance by Nathan Lane) are tasked with a gruesome murder case, and soon become embroiled in Los Angeles’ history as well as its present local White verses Mexican-American racial tensions, plus the looming threat of WW II, including Nazi conspiracies that threaten to derail the investigation at every turn. are present. There is a lot of potent meat and potato issues on the plates of all characters to feast on, which everyone does with gusto throughout all ten episodes. First-rate nuanced performances also come from Adriana Barraza as Maria Vega, as the widowed matriarch of the Vega family, poignantly played by Ms. Barraza (who also is a worthy candidate for an Emmy nomination), Josefina Vega, the young vulnerable daughter of Maria, is nicely played by Jessica Garza; LA City Councilman Charlton Townsend (Michael Gladis) chews up the scenery as a bullying, closeted, gay man whose ambition is to become Mayor of Los Angeles and exact revenge on all those who humiliated him in the past. Peter Craft (Rory Kinnear) is a successful German-American pediatrician and head of the German- American Bund who is in the thrall of Elsa (Natalie July 8, 2020
Dormer), a German refugee, who woos Peter away from his wife (Piper Perabo). And a strong performance comes from Johnathan Nieves, as the conflicted young Mateo Vega who connects himself to the “Pachuco” community as his way of rebelling against the establishment and the wishes of his mother, with both paying a high price for their decisions. Young people are passionate and must have their say regarding the changing world in which they live. However, their passion can get out of control at times resulting in violence, murder, and chaos for both sides. But in “City of Angels”, the beat goes on with many echoes of familiar movies and landmarks like “West Side Story”, and the unrest between the Jets and Sharks gangs that keep the NYPD busy. LA’s famous Four Square Pentecostal mega church founded in 1927 by Sister Aimee Semple McPherson plays a major role as do other locales and events in this quasi-historical/ fictional TV drama series. As a side bar of “déjà vu” for background, New York City’s Lincoln Center Theatre and the Metropolitan Opera House complex is the result of a NYC government fiat that displaced the Puerto Rican population in that area by eminent domain. In Los Angeles, the Mexican-American population experienced a similar fate, when the then Brooklyn Dodgers baseball team moved in 1956 to the Chavez Ravine area of LA to await the completion of their new home “Dodger Stadium”, in ‘a fait accompli’ deal by the Walter O’Malley family and the city fathers of Los Angeles. Progress always produces
winners and losers. And not all are happy with the results. If all this convoluted byzantine-like storyline that intersects back and forth sounds more like a soap opera on steroids, it’s because it is, but with a difference. It’s a quality production written by John Logan, and his team of writers and directors, and toptier creative technical artists dedicated to paying attention to the smallest of details in making this slick TV series is a must see TV movie event. With the coronavirus-19 pandemic still calling the shots and keeping people at home for the Summer, the chances of catching episodes of “Penny Dreadful: City of Angels” is very high indeed. Make sure you see it. Another reason for watching this $99 million dollar budgeted TV series production is that 80 percent of the performers and technical crews are of Spanish heritage. It appears that true and refreshing diversity stories have finally arrived in Southern California for people who look like themselves. Muchas Gracias! Having said all of the above, I am a little disappointed, however, in the wrap up finale segment which for obvious reason cannot be discussed so as not to spoil the series for those who will hopefully tune in later. The finale episode left me with the feeling that the creators said to themselves it’s time to end the show. More than that I cannot say except to state it’s a series that one should definitely see.
