Take a Wild Animal into your Heart at The Living Desert this summer By Wesley Rossenrode The Living Desert’s Summer ZooCamps opens, featuring entertaining and educational sessions for children ages four through 12. Weekly half-day sessions begin Monday, June 23rd, and are divided into age groups 4-5, 6-7, 8-9, and 10-12. The funfilled days teach children about habitats, endangered species,

propagation, and food chains. Some of the age-appropriate weekly themed sessions include “Treasure Explorers,” “Desert Safari,” “Bees, Birds, Bats & Butterflies,” “The Wild Side” and “Mystery Train African Safari.” ZooCampers will explore natural habitats, encounter exotic animals, discover scientific concepts, play games, and create crafts.

By KMIR News Staff CABAZON, Ca. -The recent installation of five gates in the center median of Interstate 10 in the critical choke point in San Gorgonio Pass will alleviate total traffic congestion during emergencies, a county supervisor said today. The gates would provide an access way for California Highway Patrol officers to funnel traffic into opposing lanes between Banning and Palm Springs during a traffic jam on the freeway. It would also provide a way to get around fatality investigations or other closures on the freeway

that has caused some ``major traffic debacles’’ in the past, Supervisor John Benoit told City News Service. The gates are guardrails which were placed along the concrete barriers of the Interstate 10 about three weeks ago. They are located between the Whitewater area and Banning and can now be opened up by an CHP officer, Benoit said. ``All of it is going to help,’’ Benoit said. ``Now, we have a couple of more options.’’ When Interstate 10 is

Selecting Legal Council when Accidents Occur By Janice Gough On June 5th, a fatal death accident occurred on Palm Drive in Desert Hot Springs. The victim, Marie Soto Caballeros, was traveling south to go visit her family in Mexico. This was the reason for her getting an early start that fateful morning. The driver who hit her car head on was critically injured, killing Maria Soto Caballeros’s and seriously injuring her passengers. According to police, the driver who hit Caballeros was clearly at fault and charged accordingly. Having worked as a Casualty agent for years, I wish to discuss what things one should consider when

any accident happens. Until the insurance coverage and limits of coverage are verified, it is advisable to find out this information first before signing an agreement with an attorney. An attorney may charge a set fee for handling the case for you, or he could charge you 30 percent of the amount awarded. It is to your advantage to have all the information and understand the amount of work the attorney will need to do before signing on the dotted line. If your case may have an unclear decision to who is at fault, it may be wise to go with an attorney, as he will bring more leverage with the insurance carrier and provide a greater settlement. When the fault in an accident is clearly

the claim on your behalf, which is a big price to pay. Once you have contracted the attorney, the insurance company will only deal with them on your behalf. Attorneys know how to look for business; they watch the police reports and contact victims sometimes immediately to secure getting a contract. Claim’s adjusters do the same thing. They may tell you that insurance companies are difficult to deal with, or that you will not receive as much when you handle the claim yourself. However, if the claims justify the policy limits, the insurance carrier will pay out coverage limits, as soon as the police reports are available. Claim’s cost increase by 30 percent

or more when an attorney is involved. Insurance companies would rather pay out the policy limits. Under Insured Motorist coverage (UMPD) on the injured party’s policy may pay out benefits also. The proceeds may never compensate your for the loss; however, by taking time to talk to the insurance carrier’ claim’s adjuster first, before contracting an attorney will enable you to make a better financial decision.

Giving people 2 weeks to accommodate this kind of change seems very short notice. The justification given was that “the CC&Rs identify the garages as being for vehicles only” so we are just enforcing the CC&Rs. Many thanks, W.S., Costa Mesa

adopted, the association may immediately begin enforcement, but some advance warning is reasonable. Thanks for your question, Kelly

Towing is an extreme measure which perhaps should be considered a last resort with respect to driveway misuse. A board might first consider holding a disciplinary hearing and fining the member. If towing is to be pursued, make sure the HOA complies with the Vehicle Code towing requirements in Section 22658. The status of the driveway apron depends on the condominium plan (if it’s a condo) or subdivision map (if it’s a planned development). However, even it is part of the member’s lot, or condominium exclusive use area, the association still can control its use. Thanks, Kelly

defined, then you must decide if hiring an attorney is the best solution. Their insurance policy will most likely pay out the limits of the policy, especially in this case where a driver died and serious injuries to passengers occurred. Why would you give up 30 percent on an open and closed case. It pays you to wait. In a case where the non fault driver suffered injuries beyond the limits of the policy, the attorney could go after the “at fault” drivers other assets. However, if not, the family of the injured party will most likely receive only the payout from the insurance company. If you have signed an agreement to pay him 30 percent, he may earn that amount by just filing

By Kelly G. Richardson, Esq. CCAL Dear Kelly: My boyfriend’s association is not allowing guests to park more than 5 days in any 30 day period. This is problematic, of course. The parking rules are in effect 24/7. Does any association have the authority to limit resident’s guest parking? Thank you for your advice. S.R., Huntington Beach

Dear Mr. Richardson: In our CC&R’S and rules we have complete and precise parking regulations. Many feel that they are not being enforced properly. If a resident’s vehicles will fit in the garage, as required by the regulations but they park on their driveway is the association able to legally tow off of the driveway said vehicles after proper notification? Not all townhomes have driveways so this would only be subject to those that do. Is the driveway apron considered common property or exclusive use common area? Will that determine whether a vehicle in violation can be towed? Is the association responsible for its care and maintenance? T.G., Mission Viejo

Dear W.S.: Rule changes, parking or otherwise, must be adopted in compliance with Civil Code 4360, which requires 30 days advance written notice before the board can approve it. However, if the rule change “merely repeats existing …governing documents” language, then Civil 4355(b)(5) exempts the change from the 30 day requirement. My impression Dear S. R.: from your question is that the Guest parking is often rule does more than just repeat a major problem for most language already found in the associations, which often do CC&Rs. If the rule is properly Dear T.G.: not have sufficient parking to fully accommodate guests on anything other than a short term basis. Yes, if the parking is on property subject to the CC&Rs, the association may have parking rules for members and their guests or tenants. These rules must be in writing and must be properly adopted with notice to the homeowners. Thanks, Kelly

Dear Mr. Richardson: Hi, I enjoy your column in the paper. Recently the Board decided that the parking was an issue. Therefore, the Board hired a parking patrol company to issue parking permits to folks for only 1 vehicle that could be parked in the common area parking and enforce the parking regulations by towing unpermitted vehicles.

coming, but we’ve needed it. We’ve outgrown our old place, so we’re super excited,” said Daisy Morphin, the clinic’s manager. She said sometimes patients would wait for one to two hours, but now with the new, spacious facility the wait time could be cut in half to about

Hot Purple Energy Named 2014 Small Business Of The Year

By Desert Star Staff PALM SPRINGS, CA – Coachella Valley renewable energy firm, Hot Purple Energy (HPE), was recently honored as the 56th Assembly District’s “2014 Small Business of the Year” by Assemblymember V. Manuel Perez. HPE President Nate Otto and Vice-President David Herrlinger traveled to Sacramento to participate in the recognition event sponsored by the California Small Business Association.

Another feature is the dental office, which can treat up to five patients at time, something they didn’t have before. The staffed dentists used to treat patients at their temporary trailer on center’s property. From dental work to primary care, the clinic treats between 200 and 250 patients a day.

20-30 minutes. Also, the urgent care center moved from the old building to the new one providing a more hospital-like setting. “It’s just bays with curtains, so they’re out where the providers can go easily and see patients at a faster time,” explained Morphin.

Most of them are low-income, insured through Medi-Cal, Inland Empire Health Plan (IEHP) or the Affordable Care Act (ACA). “Primarily, our mission is to serve the folks who have a difficult time accessing healthcare on their own,” said Fred DeHaro, Senior Vice President of Borrego Community Health Foundation. He added the expansion project cost about $1.5 million, funded by the Desert Healthcare District, ACA and IEHP. Currently, Cathedral City averages about 10,000 patients to one physician, so the need for health services is very high in the community. “We’re open seven days a week, and we still didn’t have enough capacity with the previous floor plan,” said DeHaro. Now, the clinic hopes to serve even more patients in the Valley and hire more specialists in the future. The clinic is located at 69175 Ramon Road, Suite A open Monday-Friday. They offer a variety of health services such as urgent care, family practice, on-site x-rays, pediatrics, women’s health, behavioral health, internal medicine, dermatology, ophthalmology, cardiology and dental work.

blocked in the pass, near the Morongo Casino, the only ways around are 50-mile-plus detours through either Victorville or Hemet. There are no parallel roads in the pass itself. The placement of the gates is part of an ongoing effort to provide motorists with alternatives in the wake of past traffic tie-ups on the Interstate 10. An $800,000 project to extend a mile-long roadway between Seminole Drive and Rushmore Avenue along the freeway is slated to June 25, 2014

start later this year, Benoit said. The roadway would serve as part of an alternate route in times of total lane closures, Mojahed Salama, deputy director of the Riverside County Transportation Department, said. That parallel route would be completed with a proposed parallel across the Morongo Indian Reservation, between Hargrave Street and Apache Trail, which would run south of the Interstate 10 and the Banning Municipal Airport, Salama said.

Nothing has been decided about the proposal, or about three other alternate bypass routes, but the project could carry a price tag of between $50 to $80 million over a three year construction period, depending on what route is selected, Salama said. Funding would come from sales tax revenue from the Desert Hill Premium Outlets and Indian gaming, Salama added. Courtesy of KMIR www.kmir.com www.desertstarweekly.com

In this book author John Izzo interviews 250 people selected by their friends and relatives as having lived exceptionally happy and meaningful lives. In a concluding chapter that I reviewed last week, those interviewed were asked to share in their own words their secret to a fulfilling and happy life in one sentence or less. Since many of the readers of this newspaper will themselves know an older person who has found meaning in life, whose wisdom they might want to capture while they live, this week I am publishing the questions that John Izzo asked in writing this book in the hope that this might be the beginning of a larger conversation in which each of us seeks the wisdom of others. Whether you get to ask these questions of others or not, I suggest you might find it very useful to ask these questions of yourself as well. 1. Pretend you are at a dinner party and everyone is sitting in a circle. The host invites each person to take just a few minutes to describe the life he or she has lived.

Latest Gadgets Available for Visually Impaired

By Gitzel Puente RANCHO MIRAGE, Ca.Connection Pointe at the Braille Institute in Rancho Mirage offers free instruction of the latest technology to the blind and visually impaired. “I wouldn’t be able to function half as well as I am otherwise,” said Kay Knepp, a student at the center, “Probably very few people in my life ever think of me as having visual problems because I just slip the technology in and use it.” Knepp has macular degeneration, her central vision is slowly getting worse. She said the center is helping her learn to cope with her eye disorder by using available tools. “I use the CCTV which is a magnifier, but I also use a computer, and I particularly use a software called Zoomtext,” explained Knepp. Zoomtext in addition to the CCTV at the center helps magnify words on a screen, making it easier for

the students to read. “With the small amount of vision I do have, I can read and I can still be able to get the understanding of the article,” shared James Cox, who was diagnosed with glaucoma. So from students with low vision to no vision at all, Connection Pointe helps people stay connected to the world around them. “It’s really taking everything people take for granted and letting them go into the world and letting them do it themselves,” said Patricia Russell, the institute’s Low Vision Rehabilitation Specialist. She added they even travel within Riverside, San Bernardino and Imperial counties to teach the visually impaired how to use the newest devices. Connection Pointe is privately funded and opened two years ago. It boasts of $20,000 worth of devices such as iPads, iPhones and Android gadgets. Courtesy of KMIR www.kmir.com

film

on dvd By Theda Kleinhans Reichman

‘The Lego Movie’ Now on DVD I must confess, when it comes to films about toys, my all-time favorites are the “Toy Story” trilogy, three movies about the secret life of toys when no one is around to see them in action. Toys like Woody and Buzz light year, the cowboy and space hero figures, captured my fantasy and heart, but then I am from a generation prior to the Lego phenomenon. Designed in Denmark, these little plastic building blocks can create cities and all sorts of stuff in the right hands. The purists follow the directions while others become like master builders who use the colorful plastic bits and pieces to make their own Lego universe. This concept is part of the plot in Warner Bros. “The Lego Movie,” now available on DVD. Warner Bros. Producer Dan Lin and writer-directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller (“Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs” and “21 Jump Street”) were able to convince the Lego corporate heads to green light their movie, not an easy thing to do since the Danish corporation is very protective of the Lego image. The result is a sweet, funny and gentle spoof that pokes fun at over-regulation and conformity. The film-makers also assembled a fine and varied voice cast. Lord Business/President Business and The Man Upstairs (Will Farrell) is the man who wants all things done according to plan. One of his employees, a yellow Lego construction worker named Emmet (Chris Pratt), follows a rigid

routine and is happy doing so as he sings the film’s theme song “Everything is Awesome,” which is how my young neighbors Zane (10) and Gracie (8) described their movie experience. I am almost certain my nephew Michael and his son Steven felt the same way since both grew up mastering Lego building skills. In fact, Steven, who couldn’t read at the time, could construct a Lego castle by just looking at the diagrams. Quite a feat. The ubiquitous Liam Neeson also has a prominent part in the film

as the good cop/bad cop. With a spin of his yellow plastic head, he can either be on your side—or not. There is also a secret weapon that can halt a Lego in its tracks known as Kragle, which made me think of another movie starring Neeson, who uttered the film’s most memorable line—”Release the Krackon!” What is Kragle? Well, you’ll find out when you and the kids see “The Lego Movie.” Morgan Freeman’s Lego character Vitruvious looks like a blind biblical figure decked out

in white plastic. He hands down a prophecy that a Special One will come and save the Master Builders who want to design a more fanciful place than the evil President Business will permit... Things get complicated for the very simple, yellow fellow Emmet when he meets a cool motorcycle riding gal named Wyldstyle (Elizabeth Banks) who mistakes him for “The Special.” He falls for her when she tosses her black plastic hair around which is funny since all the Lego folk move and act just like a stiff plastic actual

Lego figure. This movie wasn’t my personal cup of tea, but if you are a Lego fan and know all about Lego construction you will love “The Lego Movie” to pieces...and there are millions and millions of bright colorful plastic pieces in this homage to a Lego world. Rated PG for mild action and rude humor. Also out on DVD, the animated Academy Award nominee “Ernest & Celeste,” a delightful tale about a little artist mouse who befriends a grumpy bear named Bernard. Rated PG.

Tony Awards Party benefiting Angel View Outreach, a free program providing various supports to children living with disabilities. Approximately 125 guests were on hand to join in the Kinky Boots-themed homage to Broadway’s biggest night. “It was an honor for Toucans to be able to host a benefit for Angel View’s Outreach Program,” said Michele Cinque, owner of Toucans. “It allowed us to carry on my brother Eddie’s legacy of giving back through partnership and support of an organization that does so much for those with disabilities who live in our community. I hope our combined efforts succeeded in bringing more awareness and donations to Angel View, and that people had some good fun in the process!” Highlights of the evening included performances of Broadway tunes by Tommi Rose and the Playgirls and a

runway walk inspired by Kinky Boots trophy.While competition was stiff, the grand prize trophy winner was Peter Li, an Angel View resident with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Runnerup was Steven Erickson, CPA, who received a hand painted tie by artist Adrien Balogh. “It was a collaborative effort that was much appreciated!” added Walter Johnson, M.D., president of the board of Angel View. “All proceeds will benefit children with disabilities. Their families need assistance with so many aspects of their care. We can’t thank everyone enough for their support.” Currently celebrating 60 years of serving the valley, Angel View provides 24-hour residential nursing care, Day Program services and an Outreach Program for children and adults with disabilities.

Cool off with Hot Barbecue, a Spin on Gin and More

No. 209 brand representatives Wendi Green and D’Shawn Kerrins with No. 209 ginerator Arne Hillesland, Viceroy Palm Springs general manager Marie-Helene Morowati and publicist Joe Enos By Pamela Price Despite the rising temperature and SPF alerts from the well meaning. This year’s long hot summer defies the heat. Confirming that is a $99 Scrub, Rub and Suds spa treatment at the Renaissance Esmeralda Hotel in Indian Wells. The featured ingredient is a scrub infused with a healthy dose of beer from the Coachella Valley

Brewing Company paired with sugar to guarantee a perfect exfoliation. Jessica Blaisdell massage therapist tells me the treatment concludes with a cool glass of beer! The Carnival Cabaret ( a new a show starring Gypsy, the legendary 82-year-old female impersonator ) arrived here in the nick of time! Now that the Fabulous Palm Springs Follies has

closed after a 23 year successful run, fans are in a blue mood. Enter Gypsy ( aka James Haake) who spent eleven years with La Cage aux Folles in Los Angeles. He still has loyal fans in Palm Springs, and that’s just one many reasons he is planning a comeback. A showcase presented at the Spa Resort Casino downtown Palm Springs on June 22nd at 3 :00 pm was a roaring success attended

by guests, friends, family and interested investors. They were mesmerized by Gypsy’s hilarious commentary on aging boosted by his flamboyant costumes, ranging from a chic black-andwhite sequin gown to a flowing feathered train which he gently removed to reveal his shapely chorus girl legs. Talented male impersonators recreated Dolly Parton, Barbra Streisand, Liza Minnelli and Bette Midle among other greats to perfection while four energetic dancers kept the beat moving. There was talk of this cabaret show opening in Palm Springs in the former Staples building on Palm Canyon. Dan Gore, producer has a master plan to bring Carnival Cabaret to Palm Springs. More on that at www.carnivalcabaret.com, The Foodnetwork’s ‘ Restaurant Impossible’ came to the aid of Tooties Texas Barbecue in March with Chef Robert Irvine bumping up the décor and adding specialties to the menu such as “Da Pig” hamburger, a “Puddle of Mud” brownie cake with vanilla ice cream, fried pickles and spicy ranch dressing, sweet potato ‘Tater Tots’, Indian Fry Bread

and a basket of homemade BBQ chips. Add house made lemonade to that and Tootie’s Rodeo ( pulled chicken, sliced beef brisket, baby back ribs and three ‘fixens’, such as their creamed corn, and you can see what a difference it makes when it is all house made; no short cuts here. New owners are moving it along with catering and staying open six days a week during the summer. ( Tootie’s, 68703 Perez Rd, Cathedral City, www. tootiesbbq.com). Ending on a high note with a splash is a designer gin called No. 209 that debuted at the Viceroy in Palm Springs on May 30. This San Francisco based distillery has taken the classic gin to a new level adding juniper berries and bergamot among other ingredients that make you wonder if their gin will appear on a spa menu one of these days. Arne E. Hillesland, dapper in a snazzy white suite, is No. 209’s official “ginerator” . He was on hand to explain to guests innovative ‘ spin on gin’.

“The Last Confession” Starring David Suchet

David Suchet in “The Last Confession.” Photo by Craig Schwartz ByJack Lyons Theatre and Film Critic If the name David Suchet doesn’t ring a bell right away, regroup and think Agatha Christie’s famous detective Hercule Poirot. The British actor has portrayed the quirky Belgian detective in all 74 episodes of the Christie canon on PBS Masterpiece Mystery series. Now he sheds his Belgian detective costumes for the robes and red hat of a Roman Catholic Cardinal in the powerful drama “the Last Confession”, written by first-time playwright and lawyer Roger Crane. “The Last Confession” is a tale of intrigue, surrounded by mystery, and wrapped in the panoply and ritual of “great theatre” that is the Catholic Church. Lawyerplaywright Crane sets his play not only, inside the Vatican, but squarely inside the Papal chambers where the disagreements and ambitions of the Princes of the Catholic Church come into sharp focus as various factions within the powerful governing body, known as the Curia, continually lobby each other and align themselves with various cliques in an effort to choose the next Pope, and even succeeding Popes.

One doesn’t have to be Catholic to understand the core story. One can easily identify with the various characters because the Curia is structured along the same lines as an American business corporation. The Pope is like the chairman of the Board, and the men who actually write and implement the policy decisions in the day to day running of a worldwide Church are the Pope’s college of cardinals, and in particular, the Curia, the Pope’s inner circle of advisors. In the production currently on the boards of LA’s Music Center’s Ahmanson Theatre, David Suchet portrays Cardinal Giovanni Benelli, a friend and advisor to the recently crowned caretaker Pope John Paul I, the successor to the conservative Pope Paul VI. According to program notes by playwright Crane, the powerful conservative Curia now begin their maneuvering campaign to undo the 1962 reforms of John XXXIII and the second Vatican Council. Much like an ecclesiastic chess game, the cardinals of “The Last Confession” politic, strategize and lobby one another in Machiavellian fashion on the selection process of future Popes.

When Pope John I dies thirtythree days into his reign, the paparazzi and the Italian media begin a campaign suggesting that his death is a Vatican mystery that needs more transparency. It is common knowledge the Mafiaconnected Vatican banking advisors have been defending charges that the bank has been involved in inappropriate financial practices. Against this backdrop, Cardinal Benelli (a commanding David Suchet) takes over the investigation and delves into resolving the issues while at the same time, promoting his own candidacy to become Pope. As G.K. Chesterton said, “power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” The cast of nineteen men (how apropos) and one woman, Sheila Ferris, who plays Sister Vicenza, are uniformly outstanding in their portrayals as Princes of the Church.

Car Window Smashed to Remove Dog from Car

By Angela Monroe PALM SPRINGS -- As temperatures rise this summer it’s not only illegal, but highly dangerous to leave a dog in the car. Sunday afternoon in Palm

Springs, some shoppers took matters into their own hands when they saw a dog in a locked car, and busted out the car window to remove the dog. Many dog owners told us they would do the same, and

By KMIR News Staff INDIO, Ca. -A judge in Indio today turned down an attorney’s request to dismiss the case against a man accused in a 2006 triple murder in Pinyon Pines. Cristin Conrad Smith and co-defendant Robert Lars Pape were arrested in March and charged with the Sept. 17, 2006, killings of Vicki Friedli, 53, her boyfriend Jon Hayward, 55, and her 18-year-old daughter, Becky, at their Alpine Drive home. The defendants face three counts of murder, with special circumstance allegations of committing multiple murders and two sentence-enhancing firearm-use allegations. Smith, 25, had two hearings scheduled this morning: a trial-readiness conference and a hearing on a motion to dismiss his case. The trial readiness conference was rescheduled to Aug. 1, and the request to dismiss was turned down. The dismissal motion

filed by Smith’s attorney in April contends there was no reasonable or probable cause to order Smith to stand trial. It also took issue with the prosecution’s evidence and the testimony given at his preliminary hearing. A judge ruled after the March preliminary hearing that there was enough evidence for Smith, who has pleaded not guilty, to proceed to trial. Pape, an ex-boyfriend of Becky Friedli, was indicted by a grand jury, so a preliminary hearing was not required in his case. The 26-year-old Pape has an arraignment and bail hearing scheduled June 27. Firefighters who responded to a blaze at the victims’ home the night of Sept. 17, 2006, found Becky Friedli’s burned body in a wheelbarrow about 70 feet from the house. After firefighters doused the blaze, they found the bodies of Hayward and Vicki Friedli inside the house. Both had been shot. According to testimony and court documents, a cousin

break a car’s window to rescue a dog in distress. The shoppers did call the police, but said the dog had been in the car for about half an hour so someone smashed the window

before the police arrived. People spotted a little dog in a locked car in Palm Springs. Outside it was 107 degrees, inside -- hotter. “You wouldn’t leave your kids in a parked car for half an hour unsupervised, why would you leave a dog,” said Palm Springs resident and dog owner, Stacey. While waiting for police to arrive, someone smashed the car’s window. “If it appeared the dog was under stress, panting heavily I think that I would take the chance and I would go ahead and break the window,” said Temecula resident and dog owner, Melanie Jones. Officers gave the dog’s owner, a woman from Burbank, a $375 citation. Police say a hot car can be a death sentence for a dog. “The normal body temperature for a dog is around 101, 102 degrees and at 108 degrees the dog can suffer brain damage or heat stroke and can die as a result,” said Sgt. Harvey Reed with the Palm Springs Police Department. Temperatures rise very

quickly in a closed vehicle. On just a 90 degree day, if you have the car closed for 20 minutes it will rise 30 degrees so that it’s 120 degrees inside. “I think it should be harsher penalties on people leaving their animals unattended and especially if the temperature is high,” said Jones. However, if you do break someone’s window to rescue a dog you could face charges. “Possible criminal prosecution and civil litigation, however having said that, it is a judgment call,” said Sgt. Reed. Sergeant Harvey Reed said you should first call police or animal control. Even if they faced charges, some pet lovers would still smash a window to save a pet. “I would still do it, absolutely, to save a dogs life,” said Stacey. By state law it’s illegal to leave an animal in an unattended vehicle By Palm Springs city code leaving a dog in an enclosed vehicle is a violation even with the windows down.

Judge Denies Motion to Dismiss Charges Against Pinyon Pines Suspect and friends of Becky Friedli told investigators that she mentioned plans to go hiking with Smith and Pape. ``Pape later told investigators that he and Smith decided not to go hiking with Becky and instead the two men were only with each other the night of the murders,’’ Riverside County District Attorney’s Office spokesman John Hall said. Smith was found to be a possible contributor to DNA on a business card discovered near what investigators believed was the starting point of a trail left by the wheelbarrow containing Friedli’s body, according to authorities. FBI Special Agent Kevin Boles testified at Smith’s preliminary hearing that cell phone records for Smith and Pape showed all calls made to the defendants between 7 p.m. and 10 p.m. went to voicemail. Shotguns, a handgun holster and shoes also were seized from the suspects’ affidavit, Pape and Becky Friedli homes. dated for 15 months before they According to a grand jury broke up in January 2006. She reportedly told a friend three weeks before she was killed that Pape had told her ``that if he couldn’t have her, nobody could.’’ Hall said the District serving desert cities and beyond.

Smith -- 17 at the time of the slayings -faces life in prison without the possibility of parole if found guilty.

s p o rt s Dodgers Fans Still Missing Out By Daniel Marinelli

Coachella Valley – The MLB’s midway point is right around the corner and due to Time Warner Cable and DirecTV’s greedy discord, 25 percent of the Coachella Valley is still unable to watch the Los Angeles Dodgers. In January of 2013, the Dodgers organization decided to sell its broadcast rights to Time Warner Cable for a lump sum of $7 billion. In return, Time Warner Cable received the distribution rights for the next 25 years, meaning all Dodger games will air on Time Warner Cable’s SportsNet LA – a network owned by both the Dodgers and Time Warner Cable. Now, just how DirecTV held out on Time Warner Sports Net – Time Warner Cable’s all-Southern California (but mostly Lakers) channel that DirecTV eventually bought – Time Warner Cable is, once again, at a stalemate with the satellite company that prides itself on offering the best sports packages. A total population of 346,518 in the Coachella Valley means roughly 90,000 Coachella Valley residents with DirecTV are unable to hear “It’s time for Dodger’s baseball” – the famous phrase the Dodgers’ 86-year old hall-of-fame broadcaster, Vin Scully, proudly announces before each game. Other than missing out on the special idiosyncrasies that occur every Dodgers game, non-Time Warner Cable Subscribers have also missed some memorable

games in 2014 that will go down in Dodger’s history. On May 25, Josh Beckett pitched his first, and the 21st no-hitter in Dodger’s history. Just weeks later, on June 18, Clayton Kershaw – the reigning NL Cy Young Award winner – pitched his first, and the 22nd no-hitter in club history. “I feel robbed of an opportunity to witness history,” lifetime Dodgers’ fan and DirecTV subscriber Emmanuel Gutierrez said. “I feel robbed of a chance to watch a team, which I have loved and followed my whole life, because of these cable contract negotiations.” The inability to come to an agreement revolves around greed. DirecTV does not want to pay Time Warner Cable’s asking price; however, to justify the $7 billion paid to the Dodgers; Time Warner Cable is offering SportsNet LA at a rip-off price. “Now, if I want to watch the Dodgers game, I have to jump through a bunch of hoops,” the Coachella Valley resident, and lifelong Dodgers fan, Gutierrez said. “I have to find a friend, or a bar that has the channel, so it’s definitely a lot harder to watch a game.” DirecTV is hoping Time Warner Cable will drop its asking price, and Time Warner Cable is waiting for DirecTV to just give in and pay for the network. Either way, DirecTV subscribers who are Dodgers fans will pay a price.

Currently, DirecTV patrons are without Dodgers games and have been since the beginning of the 2014 season. If the two parties ever do come to an agreement, DirecTV will likely raise its rates to account for the amount of money SportsNet LA would cost the satellite TV provider. Previously, Fox Sports Net had been carrying the Dodgers, and KCAL broadcasted 50 games per season. This year’s change marked the first time since 1958, when the Dodgers moved to LA, that loyal Dodgers’ fans in Southern California could not watch their adored team on local broadcast television –, and the fans are not happy. “I love the Dodgers, but I don’t think just the Dodgers channel (would get me to switch providers); I would not want to pay extra for five months out of the

sink his not inconsiderable choppers into Italy defender Giorgio Chiellini’s shoulder. That’s FIFA-speak for: “We’ve got an embarrassing situation on our hands and we’re not sure what to do about it.” Chiellini pulled down his jersey to reveal what looked like bite marks after the incident in the 79th minute, but Mexican referee Marco Antonio Rodriguez Moreno took no action. Now FIFA must decide whether to suspend Suarez on the basis of video evidence. “It was ridiculous not to send Suarez off,” Chiellini said in a post-match TV interview. “It is clear-cut and then there was the obvious dive afterwards, because he knew very well that he did something that he shouldn’t have done.” It may not help the striker’s case that this is not the first time he’s fallen afoul of the rules - and normal human dietary habits. Suarez’s teeth are known can chew. to evaluate the matter,” football’s recidivists. “We are awaiting the official world governing body FIFA said match reports and will gather all on Tuesday after video footage the necessary elements in order appeared to showed Suarez

year to watch the Dodgers regular season,” said David Arredondo, a DirecTV subscriber in the Coachella Valley. “I wouldn’t want to leave the Sports packages, and the good customer service that DirecTV offers.” The exclusive Dodgers channel alone will not lure most of DirecTV’s customers to jump to Time Warner Cable. Furthermore, DirecTV makes switching as hard as possible by charging a fee if customers decide to cancel their membership. There have been rumors of DirecTV walking away from negotiations in 2014, and that the satellite television provider would not start negotiations up until the end of the season. On June 23, DirecTV released a statement regarding the rumor. “Nothing could be further

from the truth. In fact, DirecTV wants to resolve this situation on behalf of all the most loyal Dodger fans who should never have had Time Warner Cable come between them and their favorite team in the first place.” The statement seems a bit impulsive – and more rallyist and divisive than diplomatic – but DirecTV is likely working out a deal, exactly like they did a few year’s ago with Time Warner Sports Net. Dodgers fans only hope the agreement comes sooner rather than later. Dodger’s fans without SportsNet LA can sign a petition on ineedmydodgers.com, which will then be emailed to the cable provider to express the high demand for the Dodgers channel.

The Wayans Brothers Hot Comedy Show

The Superstars “Wayans Brothers” were excellent but Hot & Exciting to Watch.

By Carolyn W. Gaines Saturday evening, I felt like Four Handsome, Charming Batmen awaits to take center stage. One Fan named Felix said,”It is almost a quarter after eight, and I got to see ‘The Wayans Brothers’ tonight.” Before the Brothers entered on stage fans were screaming to tunes

Comedy Show” is going to be talk of Indio, Palm Springs, Desert Hot Springs, Palm Desert, Hollywood, Los Angeles, around the World in 6 months nightly. I can visualize their comedy dream through my passion for Blues. The Wayne Brothers like to see the kids appreciate Blues and Comedy. I wrote a book called,”Blues!..Why

of four water bottles, 4 brown wooden stools, and one mike centered stage. Keep Reading!! Yes, this Comedy Show is a Hit Show for the Brothers. Ask me how do I know? The Wayans Brothers Duos brought the Moms, Aunties, Sisters, Fathers, Brothers, Uncles, Cousins, Grand moms, Grand dads, Married Couples, and eight years-old kid of course with her Mom to see the Miracles on stage. The Superstars Brothers “SOLD OUT” a 3500 seated Venue in the Hot, Windy Desert of Indio, California. They got fans of all ages this is why”Marlon,Damon,Shawn, and Keenen Ivory Wayans “Live

Blues & Latin? Their Publicist, Mr. Abraham asked me: What did I think of the Show, and was it great? Mr. Abraham said,”This Show is the First Opening Show to night at Fantasy Springs Casino.” Carolyn said,” The Show was great just keep going, and they will make lots of Money.” Now, their choices of topics were like a good pot of tender meat, and potatoes all four brothers were zany,hilarious,fun ny,happy,raw,educational about health, bad foods, sugar diab etes,children,marriage,student loans, aging, cleverness of gay individuals, Beyonce, J-Zee, Baby North, Michael Jordan, Magic

Johnson & his wife Cooke,HipHop,Rap,Motown Music, and their history-making parents Mr.& Mrs.Howell and Elvira Wayans. Each of their Acts was full of joy, love, high energy, and confidence. A special note you can tell these brother’s practice daily and work hard. These may be the funniest Brothers the World will ever see. They were sheer laughs of brilliance. A Fan name Ismel said, We only get to talk to Wayans Brothers through our hearts, and it is good for you to talk to them.” The Desert Hot Springs and Indio, California likes to Thank the “Wayans Parents” for creation of their Legendary Sons, Daughters and Comedy throughout the years. First Act, Marlon touched the life of Red Skelton’s characters of (NBC) 1951 Television Comedian the beloved TV Clown. Closing Act, Damon’s style of dressing and comedy is comparable to Julius Henry “Groucho” Max was 1940’s American Comedians. The Wayans Brothers are known as masters of quick

wit and considered the best of our modern-Day 21st Century Comedians. Fantasy Springs Resort Casino, Mr.Brown, Entertainment Director said,”Great Show, flowed slow and smooth everyone attended were in tears. Great to have so much talent under one roof.” Their Host-Comedian Wil was very funny, an original that made us laugh from our guts. Wil Sylvince Opening Act said,”The more you know better you can be prepared in life, so learn, much as you can.” They gave their audience sheer Love! Finally, I asked the comedians to send a Quote to our youth of Today. Marlon said,”Never give up your DREAMS...You only fail when you quit trying”. Third Act: Keene Ivory

said,”Don’t confuse what you do with...who you are...Behaviors can always change, and you remain the same.” Damon the show closing act said,”In Life know who’LOVE YOU’ and listen to what they say then, learn who doesn’t and drives everything they say out of your mind. They don’t mean you any good.” Four Brothers had a vision for a while that turned their strong personal imagination of willingness to rid themselves of excuses. Which they surrender to Open at the Fantasy Resort Casino to make us laugh, cry, scream, clap, learn, listen and happy. The Wayans Brother Live-Show was hotter than Fish Grease in a country skillet just Blues Artists Buddy Guy’s,B.B.King’s, and Roy Gaines’ Bands.
