Lake Fire: Mandatory Evacuations By Desert Star Staff Update: The San Bernardino County Sheriff Department has issued a message in order to give residents in the areas of Lake Williams, Erwin Lake, and Lake Baldwin advance noticed to prepare for evacuation, in the event it becomes necessary. As of 8:00 am today the Lake
Fire is approximately 1.5 miles east of the first trigger point that affects Lake Williams. If the Lake Fire reaches the pre-designated trigger points, residents in these areas will be notified to evacuate. Residents in the affected areas, particularly those with livestock that may need to be moved, are encouraged to make
arrangements now for relocation of their animals. The Lake Fire was reported just before 4:00 pm on June 17, 2015. The cause of the fire is under investigation. It is approximately 23,199 acres in size and burning in timber. It is currently 21% contained. Mandatory evacuations
Obamacare upheld by Supreme Court By Desert Star Staff The Supreme Court upheld the nationwide availability of tax subsidies crucial to the White House’s healthcare program, handing a major victory to President Obama. Six judges affirmed the verdict of a lower court in King v. Burwell, with three dissenting. Conservative plaintiffs challenged the 2010 Affordable Care Act, commonly known as Obamacare, arguing that federal tax subsidies envisioned by the law, as written, only
applied to health exchanges “established by the state.” Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Anthony Kennedy, both regarded as conservative, joined the court’s liberal judges Kennedy, Ginsburg, Breyer and Sotomayor in backing the government’s position on Thursday. Although the challengers’ arguments about the plain meaning of the statute were “strong,” Roberts wrote in the majority opinion, the “context and structure of the act compel
us to depart from what would otherwise be the most natural reading of the pertinent statutory phrase.” “A fair reading of legislation demands a fair understanding of the legislative plan,” Roberts wrote. The six judges chose to interpret the Section 36B in light of the legislators’ perceived intent “to improve health insurance markets, not to destroy them.” Only 13 states have set up their own healthcare exchanges Continues on Page 7

The President leaves the desert
Story and Photo by Pat Krause President Obama made this a very short trip only to have to leave again on Sunday afternoon. He made use of the two days here in the Desert to play a little golf on this personal outing. This was a whirlwind trip as, he was attending a fund-raising event on Thursday in Los Angeles. On Friday, he flew to San Francisco for another fundraiser at a private residence. He made a few speeches at the functions, some on global warming. He flew into Palm Springs on Sat. Morning. President Obama managed to get off a couple of rounds of golf while he visited the Desert on his MINI Fathers Day vacation. He played golf with friends at the private Porcupine Creek golf course on Sunday
Morning. He brought along his golfing partner buddies again this year as they play together frequently. He played a bit on Sat. afternoon after he landed. He spent Saturday night at a private home in Thunderbird Country Club. The pool reported he exercised at a facility near Thunderbird Country Club early on Sat. Morning. His days here were filled in his time away from the White House. He was scheduled to leave Sunday afternoon at 1:20. He was delayed until he flew off at 3:00. Even the heat didn’t seem to deter his determination to get off a round of golf at his favorite golf courses here in the Desert. Let’s hope he continues to make stops in our Valley to play golf and meet other world leaders.
Story and Photos by Pat Krause The 2015 Palm Springs Shortfest held its opening-night films with a happy theme. The title for the opening nights films were “Make Em Laugh” and they chose films that actually would make people laugh and put them in a good mood to start the festival. The films came from around the world and included shorts from France and Belgium. The Festival will screen more than 330 films that included 77 worlds, 65 North American and 19 USA premiers. Opening night’s first film was called, Love is Blind, and was about young couples that are having an affair when her deaf boyfriend comes home unexpectedly. The couple yell back and forth about his getting out of the house knowing her boyfriend cannot hear. The boyfriend then gives his girlfriend a surprise when he opens the door, and she sees all her hearing friends with shocked looks upon their faces as they heard it all. Other films were very short and dealt with many funny ideas. The final film was Albertine that showed an elderly couple. The older lady spent her days going to funerals and planning her own when an aging gentleman

Ruiz was so thrilled and was so surprised that happened to his family.

By Pamela Price Robert A. Hillary, the first elected mayor of Cathedral City and author of Cathedral City, The Early Years 1925 to 1981 signed copies of his book at Bonta Restaurant and Bar on June 14th. The Cathedral City Historical Society organized the event. A nonstop flow of Mr. Hillary’s friends and fans was on hand to congratulate he and his wife Kay for this colorful and clever story describing Cathedral City, which began in 1925 and concludes when it was incorporated on November 16, 1981as the 18th city in Riverside County. Mr. Hillary has been curating a meticulous collection of historical images capturing the spirit of Cathedral City page by page. His vignettes include “Memorable Residents During the Early Years” with an homage to
Robert Hillery shakes hands with fan
Artist Agnes Pelton (1881-1961) who resided in The Cove where “ she found the tranquility required to produce her magnificent abstractions,” which were exhibited at the Palm Springs Desert Museum In 1995.” Her home at 677 E. Street in the Cove is intact. However, E. Street is now called Agnes Pelton Way, in her honor. Mr. Hillary’s historical narrative reveals that Ripley’s Believe it or Not featured Cathedral City in a syndicated column dated December 9, 1939 stating, “There is no church in Cathedral City, CA. It is named after a canyon,” referring to it as an “unincorporated village near Riverside.”
Fascinating topics include the once chic Dunes Club built on a twenty-acre tract during the 1930s where Maine’s lobster and Kansas City steaks were entrees “at $5.00 with all the trimmings.” A casino down the steps where croupiers were in full dress kept guests occupied well into the night. At that time, the location, at Date Palm and Gerald Ford was in the middle of nowhere. The gradual growth of Cathedral City post WWII is chronicled with precision with the author combining his memories with historical facts in a conversational style, making this page turner. Unexpected were profiles of residents during the 1930s such as Kate Price famous for her earlier career as Mrs.
Kelley in the silent movie series, The Cohen’s and the Kelley’s. A ramble through Cathedral City’s history through Mr. Hilary’s eyes identifies the eclectic people who lived here while telling the stories about the streets named for them from DaVall, Plumley and Van Fleet to Wonder Palms Road, which became Frank Sinatra Drive.

New DHS Police Chief Brings Decades of Experience By Angela Monroe DESERT HOT SPRINGS -The new police chief in Desert Hot Springs takes the helm this week, and KMIR sat down with Dale Mondary for his first interview. It’s at a time where the city is seeing a surge in crime and financial difficulties, but the new chief says he’s excited to start. The city’s new top cop has decades of experience in law enforcement. He spent 24 years with the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department as commander of the Joshua Tree station, and working on some high profile cases. “I was involved in the Erin Corwin case as the incident commander for that area, but going back a couple of years before that with Big Bear incident involving Christopher Dorner,” said Chief Mondary. The new chief is bringing that experience to Desert Hot Springs where they’ve seen a recent surge in crime. By April, the city had five murders. “Working with probation,
DHS Police Chief Dale Mondary parole, the district attorney’s office which I’ve met with preliminarily with them, and I think ultimately we’re going to make a difference and bring that crime rate down.” At Chief Mondary’s swearing in ceremony last week, two more officers were added to the department and June 26, 2015

The Whacky World of “Murder for Two”
By Beverly Cohn Murder for Two is an Agatha Christie-style whodunit on speed. With an original fun book and entertaining music by Joe Kinosian and book and lyrics by Kellen Blair, under the superb split-second timing and staging by director Scott Schwartz, fasten your seat belts for a nonstop 90 minutes of unabashed, high spirited, comic antics. Originally performed by Jeff Blumenkrantz as the multiple “The Suspects,” and Brett Ryback as the fumbling wannabe detective, this award-winning show was named one of the “8 Best Off-Broadway Shows” by NewYork.com. In this performance, an outrageously funny, gifted actor, understudy John Wascavage took on the daunting task of playing the role of “The Suspects.” He played thirteen different characters, endowing each of them with specific vocal and physical characteristics, bringing each one to life in swift, mercurial transitions. In this two-hander tourde-force, both talented actors take turns playing the piano and belting out the catchy score – occasionally trying to upstage each other at the piano in deliberately stylized, comedic movements. You would never think that just hitting one note on the piano could be funny, but indeed it is. The plot revolves around the murder of Arthur Whitney, a famous novelist who is killed in his home on the night of his birthday celebration. The planned surprise festivities were put together by his unpleasant wife, with the guest list consisting of people who, coincidentally,
appeared as characters in some of Whitney’s novels – not all the depictions being complimentary. One by one the guests “appear” and with his rubber face and elastic body akin to Jim Carey or the famous physical comedian Frank Gorshin, Wascavage shifts into each of the characters in a nanosecond. For example, with only a single prop of granny glasses, Mrs. Whitney springs to life wearing a far out southern accent. In the blink of an eye, he is now a prima ballerina and assumes a selection of exaggerated, elongated ballet poses, including pursed lips. Meanwhile, the invisible dead body lies downstage center with everyone careful not to step on it. Poor bumbling Marcus grills each of the guests, taking prodigious notes. As he continues his investigation of the guests, they actually seem to “crowd” the stage, thanks to the remarkable Wascavage’s ability. Some of the other invisible guests included, Whitney’s nextdoor neighbors, a shrink who knows everything about everyone and is willing to spill the beans, and little nine-year-old Timmy, a member of a 12-boy chorale with only three members. For this character, Wascavage walks on his knees and of course changes his vocal sound. There’s also a firefighter, and the niece of the dead novelist, on whom Marcus develops a crush. The more suspects Marcus interviews, the more he realizes that just about everyone has a motive for wanting the novelist dead, making it difficult to eliminate any of the suspects. In addition to creating all the characters, imaginary props were

also created, including a book represented by Wascavage’s hand. When Marcus says it’s hard to read, Wascavage turns his hand in the other direction, indicating Marcus was holding the invisible book upside down. In one brief scene, Marcus talks to his boss who is depicted in projected silhouette bearing an uncanny resemblance to the famous profile of Alfred Hitchcock. Laughter abounds throughout the evening with one particularly amusing running gag, which was the sound of a cell phone ringing. Wascavage broke character, as well as the fourth wall, admonishing the audience with: “You were told to turn those things off.” Phone keeps ringing. “I’ll wait.”
This happened several times throughout the evening, much to the delight of the audience some of whom, I’m sure, worried that it might really be their phone. Lest you are worry that the murderer will get away with, well, murder, just like in Agatha Christie’s many books, there is a satisfactory resolution which is revealed in a most surprising way, but that’s all I’ll say about that. The technical values of this cabaret-style production are as perfect as the performances. The interior of the mansion set design by Beowulf Boritt is an excellent frame for the non-stop zany antics, with the lighting design by Jason Lyons nicely splashing color on stage reflecting the prevailing action. The proscenium arch is encircled by lights, which light up at appropriate times in the action,
with a single bulb lighting up whenever Marcus has an idea. Jill BC DuBoff’s amusing sound design added to this show’s success, as well as Wendy Seyb’s choreography and Andrea Lauer costume design. This delightfully entertaining show has been performed all over the country. How lucky we are that it landed on stage at the Geffen Playhouse.
that she is the most devout Jew in her family. However, when her less than observant “bad Jew?”cousin Liam Haber (Ari Brand), arrives to claim a treasured family heirloom – a chai – a religious symbol from their late grandfather and Holocaust survivor, Daphna employs her considerable skills of persuasion and intimidation on her two male cousins that she should have the chai which then develops into a screeching, funny battle of Old Testament proportions. We’re not talking Neil Simon comedy zingers here. We’re dealing with a brainy, savvy, envious, irritating, and mean-spirited young know-it-all Vassar senior who is taking on her older, highly educated, highstrung cousin Liam who gives her more Biblical quotes, sociology lessons,, and philosophical food for thought than she bargained for. It is delicious confrontational dialogue and theatrical craftsmanship at its finest. It is talky; but everything that needs to be said is accomplished in 87 minutes. There is no intermission.
One doesn’t have to be Jewish either, in order to relate to the verbal fisticuffs and comedic poison-tipped darts being hurled by a proactive Daphna toward a non-receptive Liam and his girlfriend Melody (Lili Fuller). We’ve all seen either relatives, husbands and wives (Albee’s George and Martha come to mind) and friends perform their comic and sad verbal dances of animus. Self-destructive comedy can be entertaining, at times, but only when viewing it from outside the war zone. One character, Jonah Haber (Raviv Ullman), the younger cousin is calmly and emotionally detached from the heated, invective-filled debate - lots of f-bombs being tossed - between his brother and Daphna. “I do not want to become involved at this time” Jonah frequently says while resisting the urge to be drawn into the family squabbles when asked for his opinion. “Bad Jews” is an off-putting title and it’s misleading as well.

The ambiguously titled and talky play currently on stage at the Geffen Playhouse is directed by Matt Shakman, who helms his production with one directorial foot planted in “tradition” and

T H E AT R E ‘Phantom of the Opera’ -- He’s Back! BY THEDA KLEINHANS REICHMAN
Andrew Lloyd Webber’s beloved musical “The Phantom of the Opera,” based upon the French novel “Le Fantome de lOpera” by Gaston Leroux, crossed the pond from London to Broadway, starring Michael Crawford in the title role, with Sarah Brightman as Christine Daae. The show was an immediate smash hit, winning seven Tony Awards in 1988, including Best Musical. Now, nearly thirty years later, this ‘phan-nomal’ musical still thrills audiences in New York, making the “Phantom of the Opera” the longest running musical in Broadway history. If you missed seeing the show in the past, Cameron Mackintosh’s spectacular brand new production of “The Phantom Of The Opera” will be at the Hollywood Pantages through August 2nd as part of a brand new North American Tour. The updated production features a new scenic design by Paul Brown with Tony Award-winning original costume design by Maria Bjornson, lighting design by Tony Award-winner Paule Constable, fresh choreography by Scott Ambler and new staging by director Laurence Connor. This updated production, overseen by Matthew Bourne and Cameron Macintosh, as well as features many exciting special effects, including the show’s legendary chandelier (always a show ‘highlight’). Chris Mann, Christina Aguilara’s finalist on NBCs “The Voice,” stars as the mysterious and elusive phantom with Katie Travis and Storm Lineberger as Christine Daae and Raoul. In the story the elusive, mysterious, disfigured phantom, known also as the Opera Ghost, dwells in the dark labyrinth beneath the Paris Opera. He has become enamored with a lovely young soprano, Christine Daae and is determined to make her
a star. This causes problems for Raoul who has been in love with Christine since their childhood days. It also frustrates the opera’s new owners, Monsieurs Andre and Firmin, played by Edward Staudemayer and David Benoit respectively and infuriates the opera’s Prima Donna, Carlotta (Jacquelynne Fontaine). When the phantom’s plans and desires are thwarted, things turn deadly and dangerous for all concerned. In the new production, additional dialogue and lyrics by Richard Stilgoe to the original book and score by Andrew Lloyd Webber and lyricist Charles Hart have strengthened the storyline. The changes give added dimension to the characters as this dark, romantic tale unfolds amid tension and beautiful music that include such memorable songs as “Music of the Night,” “All I Ask Of You” and “Masquerade.” As striking as the new set and additional dialogues are, one change is not necessarily for the better. The second act still opens with the melodious “Masquerade,” but this time there is no vast staircase on which elaborately clad performers descend in unique costumes and masks. Instead, the act begins in a lavish ballroom with dancers wearing beautiful formal clothes of the period that is not as striking and flamboyant as the original. However, if you have never seen the show before, you won’t be disappointed since the dancing is now more elaborate and lovely to watch, and the phantom still makes a dramatic appearance in the midst of the party goers in order to give Andre and Firmin a list of his demands for the new opera he has written for Christine. He then disappears magically in a flurry of flames. If you are in the front row you, along with the revelers on stage, will feel the heat generated by his abrupt departure. At the Pantages Theatre

“ Wild Tales,” an Academy Award nominee for Best Foreign Language Film, is now available on Blu-ray, DVD and digital HD as of June 16. The film, produced by Pedro and Agustin Almodovar and written and directed by Damian Szifron, is divided into six individual stories that deal with people who cross the line of civility into madness or rage when faced with perceived injustices. This dark comedy is often hilarious, particularly in the segment devoted to an undeserved parking ticket. I personally was able to identify with this one wholeheartedly as things go from bad to even worse for our hapless hero who tries unsuccessfully to cope before taking action. The opening story is also very clever and takes place on a crowded airliner. Suddenly the passengers discover they are all on this flight for a reason. Uh, oh!
Katie Travis as Christine Daaé, David Benoit as Monsieur Firmin and Edward Staudenmayer as Monsieur André.

If you think, only animals can behave in a beastly manner, this wildly imaginative sextet of stories will not only make you laugh, it will encourage you to think twice before flying off the handle. Rated R for violence, language and brief sexuality. The DVD comes with bonus material.

They’re already at the top and the narrative flow begins to sound like it’s a Johnny onenote performance with everyone yelling. On exiting the theatre, one could hear snatches of patron conversation. “Did you think the young Jewish girl was right?” to “I thought the quiet brother was really involved without saying much.” I spoke to a patron who said “Boy, the young actress was really a despicable person, but that’s what the playwright June 26, 2015

A wine to try is St. Francis Sonoma County Chardonnay 2013, made from grapes handpicked in the cool of night to create a wine with delicate aromas, crisp acidity, and a rich, lingering finish. For a lighter bodied wine, Sauvignon Blanc, with a highly aromatic fruit profile, is perfect for salads, sushi and fresh, young cheeses such as goat cheese.

A ring ceremony for The West Shores High School Boy’s Soccer Team. The Team Won The School’s First-Ever Cif State Division Championship.
Player Edgar Ornelas: I feel excited because I know how everyone., every school soccer team wants to win. It’s the main goal. The way we did it, we struggled throughout all of the season but we made it and it was worth it. Player Gustavo Covarrubias fittingly wore a shirt that said ‘it was all a dream’.
LAKE FIRE: MANDATORY EVACUATIONS Continued from Page 1
between Angelus Oaks to Lake Williams. It will remain closed indefinitely due to reduced visibility and firefighting operations All Hiking Trails into the San Gorgonio Wilderness Area have been closed due to the proximity of the fire to these trails. The Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) is closed from Whitewater Preserve to Onyx Summit. The fire remains active in the northeast. Yesterday the fire made a push northwards toward the Rainbow Lane Area but at this time no structures have been lost. The south side of the fire continues to burn in steep and rocky terrain with minor growth downhill hitting areas
of unburned trees and grass that ignite and then burn again downhill. Additional crews have been inserted into the Ten Thousand Foot Ridge and will proceed toward the eastern Forest Boundary. Resources on scene include: 103 engines 4 air tankers 2 DC-10 VLAT (Very Large Air Tankers) 18 helicopters 4 support planes 54 crews 16 water tenders 8 dozers 1894 personnel assigned to the fire There have been four firefighter injuries.
Gustavo Covarrubias: It’s a real big dream and the dream came to life. All thanks to the coaches and the team for all the support they gave us. Coach Luis Martinez says the state championship win in march was even more special because it was at home. Coach: Just having a crowd there and seeing how much they
give to the team. When we hosted the finals here, our bleachers were filled. And it was just incredible. We couldn’t lose at home that way. We had the support from the community. Principal Richard Pimentl Sot: I’m beaming. I couldn’t be more proud of them. They could easily makes excuses for not winning. They could get up and say Well,
I’ve been dealt a tough card. I can just sit on that. They don’t. They refuse to. Besides winning--the students also learned valuable lessons along the way. Gustavo Covarrubias Sot: What we got out of it is that hard work does pay off and that working hard every day you’ll get rewarded sometimes.
Obamacare upheld by Supreme Court Continued from Page 1
since 2010. Three other states have hybrid exchanges with the federal government, leaving with 6.4 million Americans in 34 states dependent on federal-run exchanges. They allow low and middle-income people to buy private health insurances. The King v. Burwell challenge sought to declare those subsidies illegal, since the exchanges were not “established by the state”. It was the second time in three years that the Supreme
Court upheld Obama’s healthcare reform program in face of challenges by the conservatives. In a 5-4 decision in 2012, the court ruled the Affordable Care Act’s provision mandating the purchase of health insurance amounted to a tax, and was therefore constitutional. In a brief address to the press at 11:30 a.m. local time, President Obama hailed the decision, saying the ACA “finishes the job” begun by the
introduction of Social Security and Medicare. “The Affordable Care Act is here to stay,” he said, adding that repeated legislative and judicial challenges have failed to “unravel what has now been woven into the fabric of America.” “This was a good day for America,” Obama concluded. “Let’s get back to work.”
