Police caught Church Killer
By KMIR News Staff S. Carolina church shooting suspect arrested; identified as Dylann Storm Roof, 21 South Carolina police have released the identity of the suspect in the church shooting Wednesday night as Dylann Storm Roof, 21. Local media report he was arrested Thursday morning. A law enforcement source told WLTX that Roof has been arrested in Shelby, North Carolina, almost 250 miles (400 km) - about three and a half hours’ drive - away from Charleston. The arrest was reported shortly after 11 am local time, and confirmed by US Attorney General Loretta Lynch at a press conference.
Charleston police chief Greg Mullen said that local police stopped the suspect’s car after a citizen called in about “suspicious activity..” Mullen said the suspect was “cooperative” with the officer who stopped him. The gunman attacked parishioners at Charleston’s historic Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church, killing 9 people. Shortly after noon, President Obama made a statement expressing “deep sorrow over the senseless murders that took place last night.” “Mother Emmanuel is more than a church,” Obama said. “It is a place of worship founded by African Americans seeking liberty.” That church was a
“sacred place” in the history of Charleston and America, he said. While he said he was aware of the attitudes in Washington concerning gun control, Obama called for a “shift in how we think about the issue of gun violence collectively” in the wake of the Charleston tragedy. Sylvia Johnson, cousin of Pastor Clementa Pinckney who was killed at the church, told NBC News that one of the survivors told her the gunman reloaded five times and told a victim, “I have to do it. You rape our women, and you’re taking over our country. And you have to go.” Witnesses say the suspect Continues on Page 3

The Cuervo family welcomes hamburger and hot dog fans to their new restaurant in Cathedral City, Tony’s Burgers. Photo by Timmy Shulman Woods By Pamela Price When the Cathedral City Chamber of Commerce choreographed a ribbon cutting at Tony’s Burgers on June 10th, there was a clearly a vocal cheering section. That was from Tony Cuevas and his family who you will find in the kitchen and in the front of the house, greeting and seating patrons while guiding them through a bonanza menu with a range of burgers showing off more delicious trimmings than you will find on a Christmas tree. It didn’t take long for locals to discover Tony’s 28 varieties of hamburgers from the mighty #25, The King Kong, a double patty cheeseburger with four slices of bacon, mingling with lettuces, tomatoes and a generous portion
of grilled onions to the Blue Lagoon, a burger bursting with blue cheese crumbled, avocado, lettuce tomatoes and more of those delicious grilled onions. Moving on down the menu to hot dogs are varieties from the Coney Island Dog and Bronx Dog, and the inimitable Tony’s Dog. This specialty is already a favorite with patrons such as author Grace Robbins, who swoons when you mention those add ons, that being cheddar cheese, tomato, onion sweet relish and all meat chili. Hamburger artistry is Tony’s claim to fame; he spent nine years at Grill-A-burger Burger in Palm Springs and Palm Desert, before opening his own restaurant in Cathedral City, a family venture
with all hands-on deck, from his children to cousins. Dippings and dressings get a five-star rating for diversity with a choice of fifteen from a mild Ranch and 1,000 Islands to Chipotle Ketchup and Garlic Aeoli. Turkey and chicken burgers aside there are special plates, a choice of nine salads, all having one quality in common, fresh ingredients. Grace Robbins tried Tony’s Taco Salad Supreme, which was “over the top” she said, noting the plate was brimming with sliced avocado, shredded cheddar cheese, guacamole and fresh Pico de Gallo all served inside a flour tortilla accentuated by thousand islands dressing. All of these delicious descriptions are leading up to what has made Tony a legend in the French-fried potatoes’ category, specifically his homemade fries. The portions,
both and full are generous, carefully stacked and served in a silver pedestal. Jose, Tony’s son confirmed they are“ fresh cut daily and lightly seasoned.” For the record, there are varieties, such as Avocado fries sweet potato fries, Cajun fries truffle and Parmesan fries. If you are an onion ring fan, you can diversify and get a half order of fries and a half order of onions. Add a few dipping sauces and it like being back in the mid century modernism era, when the word “fried” was never questioned! Breakfast is another story with a three-cheese omelet, cinnamon French toast and blueberry pancakes on the menu. All items are $8.99 and under and include a breakfast side such as red sautéed potatoes or fresh fruit. The Kid’s Menu is clever, with Tony’s son Giovanni pictured
on the menu. This personality plus four years old is all smiles, especially when you mention ice cream. Kids will like the generous servings of quesadilla and fries, chicken fingers and dipping sauces, hot dogs and a terrific Kid’s Salad, with a choice of dressing. “Top it off with a root beer float or milk shake. You won’t find kale on the menu, just yet! Tony’s is really a blast to the past,” said Timmy Woods, a fan of fifty’s fare. Check out Tony’s Burgers at 35903 Date Palm, Cathedral City at the intersection of Date Palm and Gerald Ford.

Beating the Heat at a Bluegrass Festival By Jackie Devereaux Ontario, CA – Coachella Valley residents looking to beat the scorching summer heat can find a cool and surprisingly affordable, family-friendly retreat that is guaranteed to satisfy every member of the family. We were lucky enough to find a nearby park filled with families attending the 39th Annual Huck Finn Jubilee.

bands is much higher. The level of skill and talent everywhere was enormous. Approximately 5,000 people found ample camp sites with well-maintained grounds just off the I-10 at the CucamongaGuasti Regional Park due north of the Ontario Airport. You can’t miss it because of all the campers with children, tents, wind socks, American flags, and camp fires will catch your attention on N. Archibald Ave. The Huck Finn Jubilee is a three-day gathering of true bluegrass music lovers established in 1975 at the hands of a homegrown, Southern California family. It is the embodiment of endless pickin’ parties, instrumental roots education, and bands performing to fans that believe that bluegrass is about more than just the music. It is a community - one that delivers the nostalgia of music-driven campgrounds, bare feet, laughter, dancing, instrument exploration, and the development of new friendships. “The fans are the reason the Huck Finn Jubilee Bluegrass Music Festival is still running strong after so many years. Much of the support comes from the discussion of the festival, sharing opinions, and posting pictures and videos of recent (and past) Huck Finn adventures. We’ve compiled a list of websites and articles that help us keep the festival alive,” said Sue Oxarart, spokeswoman for the festival. Huck Finn Jubilee, produced by the Greater Ontario Convention & Visitors Bureau, supports the cross-pollination and belief in the evolution of this music. This unique festival showcases an array of musicians spanning across local, regional,
and national Grammy nominated and award-winning bands alike. Huck Finn is dedicated in delivering exceptional headlining musicians as well as up and coming talent who will continue to fight for the deep-bedded roots of bluegrass while creating sounds for the future. Bluegrass tunes can largely be described as narratives on the everyday lives of the people that the music came. The Huck Finn Jubilee is held annually on the second weekend of June. Go to www.huckfinn. com for more information about next year’s festival. The next bluegrass festival nearby is the Summergrass San Diego , Aug. 14-15 at the Antique Gas and Steam Engine Museum in Vista, CA. Go to www.summergrass. net for more information.

Taylor, “But he wasn’t my best friend or someone I kept in contact with.” His MySpace page contains only a music track from the Christian death-metal band “A Thousand Times Repent.” According to the police, six women and three men were killed in the shooting, including Reverend Clementa Pinckney, the church’s pastor, who was a Democratic member of the State Senate. Eight people were killed inside the church, and one more died at the hospital soon after the incident. At a press conference Thursday morning, Charleston Mayor Joseph P. Riley called the
shooting “the most unspeakable and heartbreaking tragedy.” “The only reason that someone could walk into a church and shoot people praying is out of hate,” Riley said. “It is the most dastardly act that one could possibly imagine, and we will bring that person to justice. … This is one hateful person.” Three people survived the attack, although police have not revealed their identities yet. The president of the Charleston NAACP, Dot Scott, said the gunman told one survivor, he would let her live so that she would tell others what happened in the church, local newspaper The Post and Courier reported.

National tour of “Matilda The Musical” begins

The company of “Matilda The Musical” National Tour. Based on the beloved novel by best-selling author Roald Dahl, “Matilda The Musical” has a book by Dennis Kelly, music and lyrics by Tim Minchin and is directed by Matthew Warchus. Photo by Joan Marcus
By Jack Lyons Theatre and Film Critic It’s a huge cast show that is colorfully uber-produced beyond belief. More than 30 actors, singers, dancers, and performers plus a world-class technical team of gifted, talented, and incredibly inventive theatrical wizards, all come together in support of one little girl: Matilda, who has a love and passion for books, words, and storytelling that transcends logic. That’s why it is one of world’s most beloved children books and now a Musical show that is soon to be seen by thousands across the country as its National Tour is launched. “Matilda: The Musical” is based on the novel ‘Matilda’ by the late British author Roald Dahl. Dahl was a writer who understood the power of imagination and the belief in magic when it came to
entertaining young children. The production now on stage at the Ahmanson Theatre (part of Center Theatre Group) in Los Angeles, was awash in tween and teen excitement to such a level that the adults at the opening on Sunday, June 7, probably thought the 2200 seat Ahmanson Theatre was going to explode due to all of the pent-up energy packed into the auditorium. Once the house lights dim, however, and the music begins, all one sees are rapt faces of sons and daughters, along with their parents, with all eyes glued to the stage. The story revolves around Matilda Wormwood (Mia Sinclair Jenness, at the performance I attended. Gabby Gutierrez and Mabel Tyler, along with Jenness will alternate the role during the run), an extraordinary little girl
who dreams of a better life than the one she is living at home with her non-caring, self- absorbed parents and dull brother. Armed with a vivid imagination and a sharp mind, Matilda dares to take a stand and change her destiny. The first step in her journey toward change begins at her school. The bullying and fearsome Head Mistress Miss Trunchbull (a brilliant and inventive Bryce Ryness), is determined to teach Matilda not to interfere with her rules and regulations concerning any of her students (the edicts of Miss Trunchbull sound suspiciously like those of a Miss Hannigan of another musical about young children (shades of “Annie”) However Matilda’s class teacher Miss Honey (a caring and sensitive Jennifer Blood) helps the young girl not only survive in her encounters
with Head Mistress Trunchbull, but helps her at home with her parents played by Quinn Mattfeld as Mr. Wormwood and Cassie Silva Mrs. Wormwood. The comic relief character Mrs. Phelps, the school Librarian (Ora Jones), charms as the storytelling ally and listener to all of Matilda’s stories in a warm and sympathetic portrayal, and sports a lovely lilting Jamaican accent in the process. One of the most entertaining aspects of this production is the talent and energy of the “children ensemble”. Their athleticism, stage presence, poise, and performances are astonishing in actors of such a young age. They make it look easy and lots of fun. One can only imagine, however, the hectic backstage activity taking place with such a large cast of actors, singers, dancers, and technicians all working to
make the magic of “Matilda” happen. The special effects in the production are spectacular in their execution; along with the high octane choreography of Peter Darling; giving featured dancer Jaquez Andre Sims as Rudolpho, a chance to strut his stuff. The production written by Dennis Kelly, with music and lyrics by Tim Minchin is under the inspired direction of Tony Award winner Matthew Warchus. He has tons of experience and awards and it shows with this highly entertaining and visually impressive musical. “Matilda: The Musical” performs at the Ahmanson Theatre and runs through July 12, 2015.
By Desert Star Staff Americans have spent more than $23.5 billion on smartphone repairs and replacements over the last seven years, and those numbers are on the rise. So when shopping for a smartphone and exploring features like camera and speaker quality, don’t neglect to consider a device’s durability. New research can help you make a smart smartphone decision. SquareTrade, a protection plan provider for smartphones, tablets and other electronics, tested the durability of new smartphones from Samsung and rated the phones according to their break-ability. The SquareTrade Breakability Score is based on a number of factors, from physical characteristics to the results of SquareTrade’s drop, dunk and slide tests -- and for the first time, the score incorporated results from a new bend-ability test. “Bend-ability may be good in the yoga studio, but it is not what you want in a mobile device,” says Jessica Hoffman, vice president of global communications for SquareTrade. Looking into new phone
options? Consider these results: • Samsung created its most durable phone yet with the recently released Galaxy S6, which performed well in all four tests. It was the least bendable of any of the phones tested, surviving 110 pounds of pressure. Under the same amount of pressure, the new Galaxy S6 edge cracked, and the Apple iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus bent. The iPhone 6 even separated near its volume button. • Samsung took a step back with the slide test: The glassbodied Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge slid farther than any other phone, and twice as far as the plastic Galaxy S5. • Both new Galaxy phones survived six drops from six feet high without breaking -- perhaps due to their Corning Gorilla Glass 4 bodies. In comparison, the Galaxy S5’s removable back popped off repeatedly, exposing the battery and other components. The iPhone 6 Plus broke apart entirely and stopped working 30 minutes later. • All phones performed equally when dunked into water for 10 seconds.
The lower the score the more durable the phone is and after testing was completed, the Galaxy S6 came away with a Break-ability Score of 4, faring better than its Galaxy S5 predecessor, which received a Break-ability Score of 6 in last year’s test. However, the Galaxy S6 edge performed slightly worse with a Break-ability Score of 5. “Samsung has sharpened its game with the new Galaxy S6,
the phone we believe is the new phone to beat when it comes to durability,” says Hoffman. “However, while thinner and larger screen phones like the Samsung Galaxy S6 and the Apple iPhone 6 are extremely popular and continue to make gains in durability, our claims data shows that consumers are breaking them at higher rates than ever before.” To watch break-ability testing in action visit, https://

FILM Universal’s Blockbuster ‘Jurassic World’ BY THEDA KLEINHANS REICHMAN
The dinosaurs, introduced to us in Stephen Spielberg’s “Jurassic Park,” are back with a vengeance in an even bigger, better prehistoric amusement park now known as “Jurassic World.” In order to attract new investors and increase attendance, the park has created an all-new dinosaur species in their laboratory. Soon the Indominus Rex, more frightening than the T-Rex, will be Jurassic World’s newest, most terrifying attraction. The current owner, Simon Masrani (Irrfan Kahn) is eager to display the new monster for the world, but will the park be able to contain the fierce beast? Claire (Bryce Dallas Howard) is busy promoting the new attraction to potential investors when her two nephews Zach (Nick Robinson) and his younger brother Gray (Ty Simpkins) arrive for a visit. It has been years since they have seen one another, but due to job pressures, Claire is unable to meet them upon their arrival. Instead, she sends her assistant to welcome the boys. Via cellphone she tells them, she will join them for dinner later that evening. In the meantime, they head off to explore Jurassic World with her assistant... Cut to Owen (Chris Pratt) who is in charge of four young velociraptors in the park. They regard Owen as the alpha male. When he barks out orders, the foursome listens and obeys. Pratt’s character is not only heroic and sexy; he also provides much of the humor that lightens up the plot. Vincent d’Onofrio portrays the park’s military consultant that wants Owen to train his raptors
as weapons of war capable of tracking down and killing the enemy. However, Owen refuses to put his raptors in harm’s way... Once we meet the main characters the adventure takes off in high gear, leaving us breathless, as prehistoric predators are inadvertently unleashed into the park. While Aunt Claire is consumed with her job, her two nephews find themselves alone in an area where hundreds of dinosaurs are contentedly grazing. The serenity of their park ride experience inside a large movable bubble is shattered when the escaped Indominus Rex enters the scene. Will they get out alive? At this point Claire joins forces with Owen in an effort to gain control of the situation and save her young nephews who are on their own and in grave danger. The visual effects are amazing and the action sequences involving raptors, Indominus Rex and flying pterodactyls will leave you clinging at the edge of your seats. The action sequences are too intense for very young children, since some of the soldiers, trying to contain Indominus are eaten alive. Adults will cope with the intensity, but youngsters could really be traumatized. No actual dinosaurs were harmed in the making of this film. “Jurassic World,” a fastpaced action adventure with amazing visual effects, is rated PG-13 for intense, frightening action sequences and violence involving prehistoric creatures.

S P O RT S Power Seek Fifth Straight SCCBL Title in 12th Season BY DANIEL MARINELLI
PALM SPRINGS – With high school sports closing down until next school year, sports fans (meaning non-golfers) in the Coachella Valley don’t have to worry. The Palm Springs Power collegiate baseball team is back for a 12th season. The Palm Springs team chock-full of Division I talent is not in the Desert to just relax, take a few reps and go through the motions. The Power are the defending champions and also looking for a fifth consecutive Southern California Collegiate Baseball League (SCCBL) championship this summer. After going 39-8 a year ago, and earning six titles in 12 years, the Palm Springs Power bring back the same expectations but – except for two pitchers www.desertstarweekly.com
– a brand new team. Getting reacquainted after taking a break from the Power last year, Cal State Northridge catcher Chad Clark is back for his third summer in the red and white in four years. “There’s high expectations for this team,” Clark said of the Power in an interview. “We’ve won a lot of games over the years and are just trying to get the new guys acclimated, get them on the same page. But the excitement is there and everybody is ready to go.” Longtime head coach Harry Gurley has his squad currently in fourth place at 2-2 (9-5 overall); which is a worse pace than last year. It is still the beginning of the season and though they are halfway to double-digit losses, there is a lot of time for the Power

Visit http://smarturl.it/Scorps_RTF_ D2C for more details. Return To Forever celebrates a spectacular global return for Scorpions as the album is already available in many parts of the world breaking and remaining in the Top 10 in multiple markets including Finland, France,
Germany, Greece (#1), Hungary, Japan and Switzerland, with continued chart activity in Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Holland, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the U.K.! When Klaus Meine (vocals), Rudolf Schenker (rhythm guitar) and Matthias Jabs (lead guitar) conceived this record, the idea was to revisit their past, recording updated outtakes and unfinished song ideas from their most famous 80’s sessions. Mathias Jabs explains, “There had been quite a few unused songs over the years that were really good, but in the end didn’t make the cut back then due to the limited space on vinyl. We focused on eight songs, which were partly finished which we then recorded from scratch. During the work, new song ideas were added. We were having so much fun we suddenly found ourselves in the middle of the songwriting process once again. And in the end, it turned out to be a brandnew Scorpions album after all.” Return To Forever includes first single, “We Built this House,” – capturing all the elements that make for the signature Scorpions June 19, 2015
sound, luring verses with an anthemic chorus – purists will be thrilled! Additional selections include the sweeping “House Of Cards,” “Eye Of The Storm” – a track, that transports a notion of the unbelievable dynamic and joy of playing, characterizing Scorpions’ stage performances, and “We Built This House” where the band reflects the past fifty years – their philosophy and the lessons their unusual life taught them. “In the end, it tells our story” said Klaus Meine. “We’ve built this house called Scorpions brick by brick and often quite arduously. From the first days
in Hannover, the first concerts abroad, until this very day. We’ve weathered severe storms, but the house withstood everything, turned out to be weatherproof and stable. However, building the house was never just cumbersome, but joyful as well Scorpions Return to Forever 50th Anniversary Tour, May 2015 with dates in four continents.

Cheap Trick & Peter Frampton at Fantasy Springs
Robin Zander, Rick Neilsen, Daxx Neilsen and Tom Petersson- Cheap Trick. Photos by Pat Krause Story and Photos by Pat Krause Fantasy Springs Resort Spa Casino did double duty when they decided to host two very special groups in one night. Fans really got their monies worth on Saturday night, June 13th, when Cheap Trick and Peter Frampton gave a dual concert. Fans were delighted to be able to see two of the most talented groups in rock and roll history on the same stage. Cheap Trick took to the stage first to a standing ovation. Fans barely sat during their whole concert. There were shouts and clapping after many of their songs, especially more of the well-known songs from their many albums.
That 70’s song, I want You to Want Me, The Flame, Baby Loves to Rock and Surrender brought cheers from the crowd. Cheap Trick is one of the most enduring Rock Bands since they started in the 70s. Cheap Trick has performed more than 5000 concerts, sold over 20 million records, have 40 gold and platinum records, won awards and more since they started over 35 years ago. Guitarist Rick Nielsen has an extensive guitar collection that number of over 400 classic and original styles. I think he used a different guitar with each song. I waited
patiently for him to bring out his many necked guitars. The first one he used is the one in his image with 2 necks and thrilled the audience with the last one he used that has five necks. He is an amazing guitarist and is the comedy part of the concert with his antics and stupendous guitars. Vocalist Robin Zander wore his usual white Top Hat and White Jacket The white Top Hat is his signature outfit. He sings and plays guitar in his own style with backup singing by Tom Petersson and Daxx and Rick Nielsen. Each artist performed a solo; Tom Petersson on Guitar sang and

played while Daxx on Drums showed his artistic talents. There was a short break while they prepared for the next wonderful concert of the night, Peter Frampton. Frampton started his career as a lead singer at age 16 and continues his status as rock and rolls lifelong major player. He has won many awards, including Grammy and Juno Awards. Peter is a singer, songwriter, producer and of
course a great guitarist. His newest CD, Hummingbird In A Box, has gotten rave reviews in the music world. Fans again were thrilled with his performance as they stood a lot, clapped and cheered after his songs. This concert lasted longer than most with encores. Watch for greater concerts at Fantasy Springs Resort Spa Casino this summer.
