2018 FIFA World Cup Russia opens World Cup with record-breaking 5-0 win over Saudi Arabia By Desert Star Staff An energetic Russia secured the biggest-ever World Cup opening match win in history, as it raced to a spectacular 5-0 victory over Saudi Arabia, with rising star Aleksandr Golovin at the heart of the home team’s best moves. In a match-up of two predominantly domestically-

based squads that play on different continents, with opening game jitters to take into account, even the Russian media stuck a cautious tone in advance. But the home side in red immediately opened as the more enterprising group, ratcheting up the tempo against a Saudi Arabia that

By Desert Star Staff WASHINGTON, -American Humane, the country’s first national humane organization, has released its annual Impact Report, detailing major victories and advances made over the past 12 months in furthering its 141-year-old mission of ensuring the safety, welfare and well-being of animals, as well as promoting and nurturing the life-changing, life-saving bonds between animals and people. In just the past year, American Humane programs directly touched the lives of some 1 billion animals around the globe – more than any other humane group of its kind – and won top

honors from leading charity watchdogs for effectiveness, efficiency and transparency. Among the major successes revealed in the report… • The American Humane “No Animals Were Harmed®” program successfully kept some 100,000 animals safe on film and television productions, increasing the number of our safety reps worldwide by 13.2 percent. • The American Humane Conservation program helped protect 250,000 remarkable and endangered animals living in the world’s zoos, aquariums and conservation centers – nearly doubling the number of magnificent

The first goal arrived after 12 minutes from a neat header by unheralded 28-yearold Yuri Gazinsky, and came from a pinpoint cross from Golovin, the CSKA Moscow midfielder, who has been linked with a host of top English

Premier League clubs. Creative fulcrum Alan Dzagoev, who has often suffered misfortune around big tournaments, had to go off after just 20 minutes with a suspected hamstring injury, to be replaced by Villareal’s Denis Cheryshev. Cheryshev, who himself suffered an injury-plagued

season, doubled Russia’s lead 20 minutes later with a skill that left two Saudi players on the ground, and an emphatic left-foot shot into the roof of the net. The Green Falcons mustered a rally in the second half, but Russia again looked Continues on Page 3

Big Sky State Celebrates 25 Years of LGBT Pride By Desert Star Staff HELENA, Mont. – June is Pride Month, a celebration of LGBT communities across the country. In Montana, Big Sky Pride is holding it’s 25th annual celebration in Helena. It will include events across the city all weekend and a speech from Gov. Steve Bullock. A quarter century of pride in Montana is a big deal, says Kev Hamm, president of Big Sky Pride, but he adds that the push for equality is still young. The first pride marches took place after the violent Stonewall riots in New York City in 1969. “One of the things that I think people don’t realize is that we’re still the frontier,” Hamm points out. “We’re celebrating our 25th Pride, which is a great accomplishment for Montana, but you’re looking at – 1970 was the first time they had the first annual march in New York.”

Hamm says Pride celebrations in Montana grow every year. Events over the weekend will span the spectrum, including a kickoff at the Lewis and Clark Tap Room on Friday, comedy shows and a meet and greet with LGBT state legislators at Ten Mile Creek Brewery. Hamm says marriage equality wasn’t the culmination of the LGBT movement and that many are still fighting for equality. He points to Initiative 183, which is currently collecting signatures to appear on the November ballot. I-183 would require people to use a restroom, locker room or changing room based on their sex assigned at birth. Hamm says it discriminates against transgender and non-binary Montanans. “It’s based on fear and it’s run by a bunch of people who think that their beliefs are

more important than our lives and it’s unacceptable,” he states. “It needs to change. “That’s our big focus this year because that’s how

they’ve chosen to attack our community. They’ve gone after some of our most vulnerable and we’re not going to stand for it.”

Supporters of the initiative need about 25,000 signatures by June 22 to qualify for the ballot.

By Desert Star Staff SACRAMENTO, Calif. — A new state ranking of Americans’ financial health shows California is home to two of the most prosperous big cities - San Francisco and San Jose - and two of the least prosperous - Fresno and Santa Ana. The 2018 Prosperity Now Scorecard includes measures of financial health in the 64 biggest U.S. cities, all with populations over 300,000. And

no surprise, Silicon Valley is doing well, except on measures of housing affordability, where it is among the worst. Kasey Wiedrich, director of applied research at Prosperity Now, said although Silicon Valley residents generally have advanced degrees and earn high salaries, relatively few can afford to own a home. “So, we look at the median home values compared to the median income, and it’s almost

ten times higher,” Wiedrich said; “which really, you know, speaks to who can afford to live in a city like San Francisco.” San Diego scored well on prosperity, at number 14. Fresno and Santa Ana ranked 57th and 60th, respectively. And Los Angeles also fared poorly, at number 48. All three have large immigrant populations, many of whom live paycheckto-paycheck. And almost 42 percent of people in those

metro areas work in jobs that don’t offer health insurance. Wiedrich added the research found many citydwellers don’t have a basic nest egg, meaning they haven’t saved enough to cover basic expenses for three months in case of an emergency. “We think that decades of discrimination really have hindered people’s ability to build wealth and to become economically mobile, and for

families to provide for their children a brighter future than they have now,” she said. The report looked at 26 factors, including family income, assets, debt, emergency savings, home ownership, education, access to healthcare, tax rates and the average cost of housing. When compared with other states, as a whole, California comes out right in the middle - at number 27 for overall prosperity.

Starting at noon EDT today, June 14, the general public (that’s you!) can visit StuckAtProm.com to view the 2018 Stuck at Prom® finalist gallery to vote for their favorites! Polls are open until midnight EDT on June 25. Check back on July 9 (or follow Duck® brand on social

media - @theduckbrand) to see who will be crowned as the 2018 Stuck at Prom® Scholarship Contest winners. “For many, prom is not about landing the perfect date. It’s about spending one more night with your closest friends before graduating and officially ‘adulting.’ It’s about dancing to your favorite songs, laughing over inside jokes and reminiscing about what will eventually be known as ‘the good old days’,” said Ashley Luke, category manager, at ShurTech Brands, LLC, the company that markets the Duck® brand. “To celebrate everyone’s unique prom-going experience -- whether you’re attending prom by yourself, with a date, a friend or a group -- we chose to focus this year’s contest on the individual,

rather than the couple.” The Top 5 individuals in the Dress Category (in no particular order): • Emily Kaman (Kennesaw, GA) • Esperanza Semchuk (Clifton, VA) • Anne Pacheco Timmerman (San Diego, CA) • Baylee DeVos (Caledonia, MI) • Jordan Amel Douthit (Wake Forest, NC) The Top 5 individuals in the Tux Category (in no particular order): • Charlie Hyman (Simpsonville, SC) • Ryan Slanina (Clifton, VA) • Blake Johnson (Wyoming, MI) • Brenten Bartels (Sioux Falls, SD) • Nicholas Matawa (Brick, NJ)

American Outreach Foundation receives surprise $10,000 grant

By Desert Star Staff Palm Desert, Calif., – Representatives from the H.N. and Frances C. Berger Foundation surprised a local nonprofit organization with a $10,000 check today – while on CBS Local 2’s Live Facebook Feed. The grant – presented to the American Outreach Foundation – is an offshoot of a partnership between the Berger Foundation and CBS Local 2, where each month, a local nonprofit receives a $25,000 grant. But this grant was unknown prior to the presentation. “I’m not often rendered speechless, but this was quite a surprise,” said Victoria Llort, Vice President of the American Outreach Foundation. “We’ve

been applying to the Coachella Valley Spotlight grant for quite awhile, and to see that our efforts have been recognized by such a staple in the valley, the Berger Foundation, means a lot. Last December, the American Outreach Foundation was among 108 local nonprofits that received a regretful letter that they were not selected to receive one of the monthly Coachella Valley Spotlight grants for 2018. “It is so difficult to choose only 12 nonprofits to receive the Coachella Valley Spotlight each year from so many deserving nonprofit applicants,” said Catharine Reed, Program Director for the H.N. and Frances C. Berger Foundation. “Now in our second summer of presenting surprise grants, this extension of our partnership with CBS Local 2 allows us to give even more in a very fun and exciting way!” “Recognizing the work organizations, such as the American Outreach Foundation, do in our valley is so rewarding,” said Mike Stutz, General Manager of Gulf California Broadcast Company, which owns and operates CBS Local 2. “We are so proud to partner with the H.N. and

Frances C. Berger Foundation in presenting the Coachella Valley Spotlight. Extending the program with these surprise $10,000 grants is truly a bonus for the community and makes for great television!” The American Outreach Foundation was founded in 2007 with a mission to enhance the quality of life and freedom of mobility of those confined to the use of electric wheelchairs and scooters. The organization searches for contributions to provide these mobility devices to low-income

seniors and veterans who are underinsured and cannot afford this type of assistance. Each device costs about $600, so the $10,000 grant will potentially mobilize about 16 people in need. On average, 80-100 electric wheelchairs and scooters are given annually to valley residents through the American Outreach Foundation. Plus, another 40-60 are serviced annually thanks to generous donations to the nonprofit organization. “Since the inception of the American Outreach Foundation,

the gifts of electric wheelchairs has affected thousands in the valley, through the ripple effect of touching the lives of recipients’ family members and caregivers,” said Oscar Llort, Founder and President of the American Outreach Foundation. “This unexpected grant will continue that momentum!” “The American Outreach Foundation is filling a great need among our valley seniors and veterans by improving their quality of life from homebound to mobile,” said Reed.

Lara Croft Springs Into Action in ‘Tomb Raider’ On DVD School is out, summer is here--time to check out some cool movies at home on DVD. One the whole family can enjoy together is “Tomb Raider,” starring Oscarwinning Swedish actress Alicia Vikander as Lara Croft. In her first incarnation, Lara Croft was a sexy, voluptuous cartoon figure wearing short shorts in a video game franchise. She was a character young teenaged boys could relate to. When she transferred to the big screen, Lara Croft was first played by Angelina Jolie. Now in the new Tomb Raider film, the iconic warrior is Alicia Vikander (“The Danish Girl,” and “Ex Machina,” a science-fiction thriller). This time we find out more about Lara’s background. As the story begins, she is working in London as a bike courier. Although she is the daughter of Richard Croft, a wealthy entrepreneur and adventurer (Dominic West) she is not living off of his money. He has been missing for seven years, but to take money from his estate would mean that he is dead and in her heart she feels he might still be alive.

Lara is now 21, and Kristin Scott Thomas (“The English Patient”) and Derek Jacobi (“Gladiator,” “The King’s Speech”) advise Lara to accept her inheritance. They also show her a small box. Inside is a key and a note written by her father. Suddenly she grabs the box and runs out of the office. As a result, she finds a book that contains the mysterious secrets about the ancient Japanese queen Himiko buried on the island Yamatai. She immediately flies off to Hong Kong hoping to find the answer to her father’s death. Soon she is befriended by Lu Ren (Daniel Wu) who agrees to sail with her to the mysterious island across a very treacherous sea. When they crash land on the island during a deadly storm, they are captured by the evil Mathias Vogel (Walton Goggins) who is desperately searching for the tomb and its deadly secrets. He steals the book from Lara, hoping it will have the information he needs. Will Lara find out what happened to her dad? Will she and Wu get out alive? There are many cliffhangers, literally, and plenty of action.

Alicia Vikander does a great job as the reluctant heroine. An expert with a bow and arrow, she shows genuine remorse when she must use her skills to kill the bad guys. Her expressive face speaks volumes, without her saying a word. The movie moves at a fast, exciting pace so it should provide an evening of excitement for the whole family, other than the very young. “Tomb Raider” is rated PG-13 for sequences of violence and action, and

some language. Running time: 118 minutes. Special DVD Featurettes: “Tomb Raider: Uncovered” the cast and crew reveal the challenges--and fun--of bringing Lara Croft’s thrilling adventures to life for a new generation. (on all releases) These additional featurettes are only on 4K Ultra HD, 3D Blu-ray, and Combo Packs: “Croft Training,” enter the gym with Award-winning actress Alicia Vikander as she prepares for the most physically demanding role of

her career and transforms into the iconic action hero Lara Croft. “Breaking Down the Rapids,” join Director Roar Uthaug as he and other members of the cast and crew break down the film’s most exciting action set piece and “Lara Croft: Evolution of an Icon,” explore the revolutionary Tomb Raider saga from video game to movies, and discover how Lara Croft became one of the most popular and successful female characters of all time.

Suicide Prevention Text Line Expands

By Desert Star Staff ST. PAUL, Minn. - Crisis Connection, which is operated by Canvas Health, has answered Minnesota calls to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline for decades - but says it might stop if it doesn’t get some funding from the state. The company had requested almost $1.4 million in state funding last legislative session, saying that amount would allow enough staffing to answer 95 percent of calls, but lawmakers said it was too expensive. Canvas Health chief executive Matt Eastwood said the suicideprevention lifeline stays afloat with money from a variety of sources, including smaller state contracts, but it isn’t enough. “We end up losing between $100,000 and $300,000 a year operating the service,” he said. Crisis Connection reported that it gets about 52,000 Minnesota calls per year, about 70 percent of which are answered. The company wants almost $970,000 a year for an 80 percent answer rate and said last session’s bill could be picked up and amended by the Legislature. Regardless of the outcome, Minnesota will have a company answering text messages to an emergency number. www.desertstarweekly.com

This isn’t the first nearclosure for the hotline. It almost stopped service last summer but was saved by emergency funds from the Minnesota Department of Health. Eastwood said he can only speculate what will happen if his company stops picking up the phone. “What we think will happen is those calls will end up going to law enforcement,” he said, “or will result in more people will end up going to already overcrowded emergency departments.” Eastwood disputed the Department of Human Services’ claim that the suicide prevention text line is available statewide for the first time. He says his company used to handle text messages, but the state chose a new contractor to save money. According to Eastwood, the only difference now is that people are promoting the service across the state instead of in select areas. “What we didn’t have was a regional coordinator in every part of the state out there marketing the program,” he said, “and that’s really the difference.” The Department of Human Services has said Canvas Health was only contracted

Desert Water Agency & PS Animal Shelter Unleash Dog Days of Summer

By Desert Star Staff Desert Water Agency (DWA) and the Palm Springs Animal Shelter (PSAS) have formed a partnership for the second year in a row to promote dog adoptions during the summer months. Desert Water Agency donated and also provided a new water dispenser for animal shelter staff and volunteers. Desert Water Agency is also providing travel water bowls and bandanas to the shelter to send home with every dog adopted during the Dog Days of Summer, June through August. Each week DWA will place a photo of an adoptable senior or long-term dog in their lobby and employee break room. The agency plans to highlight the program in its newsletter and post photos of the adoptable dogs on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

“Desert Water Agency and Palm Springs Animal Shelter both provide our community with important services,” said Board President, James Cioffi. “This partnership will increase the visibility of both organizations and hopefully lead to more adoptions.” Summer months can be hard on four-legged friends, so DWA and the shelter will be sending out reminders to keep pets (and their owners) adequately hydrated. The summer is also a difficult time at the shelter as there are fewer volunteers and adoptions. Friends of the Palm Springs Animal Shelter is the only public shelter in the Coachella Valley operating under a nokill philosophy. They continue to work to find homes for all animals through the long, hot summer while making sure dogs are walked daily, and ongoing socialization and training

takes place as part of their Canine Enrichment Program. “During the hot summer months, we see a decrease in our adoptions and our volunteer base,” said Friends of the Palm Springs Animal Shelter president Tamara Hedges. “We work hard to

find homes and care for lost, stray and homeless pets all summer long. We hope this partnership brings awareness to our needs year round.” In 2016, the City of Palm Springs participated in DWA’s turf buyback program and converted 39% of the turf

area at the city dog park, giving dogs the chance to explore and play amidst the lush desert landscape. For more information on adopting a pet from the Palm Springs Animal Shelter, please visit www.psanimalshelter. org, or call (760) 416-5719.

With More Families Being Separated, Stress on Immigrants Adding Up

By Desert Star Staff SEATAC, Wash. – Pressures are mounting under new Trump administration policies that separate immigrant families. More than 200 people seeking asylum are being held in a federal prison in SeaTac, many of whom are mothers taken away from their children at the border. And a new Department of Homeland Security policy could separate more families. It will allow U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to investigate and deport members of families who step up to host children found at the border. Mark Chattin, legal services director at Catholic Community Services in Seattle, says host families usually are related to the unaccompanied children and will be wary to come forward under this new policy. “It really does increase the likelihood that children will be separated from any sort

of family when they’re taken away from their parents,” he states. “A lot of families who would step up to be foster parents are going to be concerned about doing so.” Chattin calls these policies cruel. Washington Gov. Jay Inslee and the state’s attorney general, Bob Ferguson, are seeking answers about the women held in SeaTac and are leaving open the possibility of a lawsuit to find out more. More than 1,400 asylum seekers have been sent to federal prisons across the country. U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions also announced this week that most victims of domestic and gang violence would no longer qualify for asylum. He says the policy is needed because numbers at the border are threatening to overwhelm the immigration system. Chattin says it isn’t just immigrants coming across

the southern border who are running into roadblocks reunifying with their families. The Trump administration has also halted cases from people around the world. “They just basically have

put everything on administrative hold,” he states. “And so those folks aren’t being able to get reunified either. “So you have those who come to the border get separated, and then

those who are here legally but want to bring their family here can’t do so.” Chattin wants to see the religious community step up with a unified voice to denounce these policies.

The U.S. government has moved more than 1,400 detainees at the border to federal prisons, including the Federal Detention Center in SeaTac. (SoundersBruce/Wikimedia Commons)
