Desert Hot Springs Classical Concerts Presents Jeffrey Gilliam By Desert Star Staff Desert Hot Springs, CA -- The fifth season of Desert Hot Springs Classical Concerts concludes with a performance by pianist Jeffrey Gilliam at Grace Church. The concert takes place at 4pm on Sunday, May 5th at Grace Church, 17400 Bubbling Wells Rd., Desert Hot Springs. Admission is free, but donations at the door are welcome, and go directly to supporting the concert series. “Desert Hot Springs Classical Concerts has had an exhilarating fifth season,” said Founder and Artistic Director, Danny Holt. “This season we’ve presented more concerts than in any past season, and featured performers from the

Coachella Valley, Los Angeles, and even places farther afield such as Massachusetts, Washington state, and even Scotland and Canada.” Pianist Jeffrey Gilliam’s solo piano recital includes excerpts from Schubert’s beloved final piano sonata, and rarely-heard bagatelles by Saint-Saens. Works by two living American composers round out the program: William Bolcom’s Death Moth Tango, and the world premiere of a new work by composer Bruce Stark (who originally hailed from southern California.) Prior to joining the piano faculty at Western Washington University in 1992, Jeffrey Gilliam taught at The Juilliard School; The University of

Michigan School of Music; and at The International Menuhin Music Academy in Gstaad, Switzerland. He has performed and taught all over the world, including guest university teaching positions in Thailand and South Africa, as well as receiving two Fulbright awards. He has recorded with violinists Yehudi Menuhin, Alberto Lysy, and Ruggerio Ricci for the EMI, Dinemec Classics, and Opus 111 labels. Originally from Akron, Ohio, Jeffrey Gilliam studied piano with Cécile Genhart at The Eastman School of Music, and with Theodore Lettvin at The University of Michigan. He also studied collaborative piano with Continues on Page 3

Campaign Launched to Ensure Census Counts All Latino Children

schools, food programs and even money to fix potholes. Texas has long been a state where hard-to-reach communities go uncounted, and Escobedo says in the last census, two Texas counties made the top 10 for undercounting Latino children. “So, for example, in Dallas we had an undercount of 17,000 children in the 2010 Census, and in Harris County, we had an undercount of 9,000 children,” she explains. Escobedo adds that talk of building a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, mass deportations, and the move to include a U.S. citizenship question on the 2020 census is not likely to make counting a community generally distrustful of government any easier. The U.S. Supreme Court has heard oral arguments on the citizenship question, and the Trump administration

maintains it’s necessary to enforce the Voting Rights Act. A ruling is not expected until mid to late June. Escobedo says a question about citizenship status hasn’t been on the census for more than half a century because the federal American Community Survey provides estimates needed to enforce the Voting Rights Act. “Since the 1950s, we’ve been enforcing the Voting Rights Act just fine,” she states. “In the Constitution, it says that every person in the United States must be counted. It doesn’t say citizens, it says every person.” Some 400,000 Latino children up to age to four were left uncounted in the 2010 Census. Five states – Texas, Arizona, California, Florida and New York – accounted for 72% of the undercount of young Latinos.

By Desert Star Staff AUSTIN, Texas – This week, the leading nonpartisan educational group advocating for Latino participation in

politics launched a national campaign to make sure all Latino children are counted in the upcoming 2020 census. Lizette Escobedo, director

By Desert Star Staff ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – It wasn’t that long ago that American women regularly gave birth to five or 10 children, but fertility rates across the U.S. continue to decline, with data showing that 2017 had the country’s lowest rate since the government started keeping records. Some of the largest drops have been among Hispanic women, and demographers say that’s because they are catching up to their peers who have chosen smaller families for economic and career reasons. Demographer Lina Guzman is the senior researcher and director of Child Trends’ Hispanic Institute. Guzman says generational differences between Hispanic immigrants and their American-born daughters and granddaughters is causing much of the downturn. “Latino women, their

fertility rates have declined by close to a third since 2006,” says Guzman. “White and black women have also seen declines, but their declines were of a much smaller magnitude – somewhere between 5% to 11%.” In addressing immigration at the southern border, President Donald Trump recently declared the U.S. to be “full” – and encouraged immigrants to stay in Central America. Some economists warn, however, that with population growth at its slowest rate in 80 years, that message is short-sighted because American economic growth will depend on immigration and racial minorities. Fertility rates are still the highest among Hispanics compared with any other racial or ethnic group. Guzman notes, however, that young Hispanic women soon will have an average of two

children – down from three just a decade ago – because birth control is more accepted. “Much more increased use of contraceptives, much more use of effective contraceptions

like the IUD, and much more consistent use of contraception – that is also likely playing a role,” says Guzman. The largest decline in Hispanic fertility rates has

been among women of Mexican heritage, who account for nearly two-thirds of all Hispanics and around 11% of the American population.

NBC PS News Staff New population estimates show California’s births fell by 18,000 last year, prompting the slowest recorded growth rate the country’s most populous state. State officials said Wednesday the population stood at 39.9 million as of Jan. 1. The state added nearly 187,000 people in 2018 for a growth rate of 0.47%, the slowest since records began in 1900. The sluggish rate was driven by a significant drop in births and an uptick in deaths as the baby boomer generation ages. Still, California remains

the country’s most populous state by far. Texas, the next most populous state, is still shy of 30 million people. Ethan Sharygin, a demographer with the state Department of Finance, noted births have declined faster than expected. He said one reason is fewer people are coming to California from Mexico, where birth rates are higher. Instead, more people are coming from places like China, where birth rates are lower. California’s population estimates come as the state is preparing for the 2020 census, an important head count used to distribute federal tax dollars

and decide congressional representation. State officials are concerned many Hispanics won’t be counted if the Trump administration succeeds in placing a citizenship question on the census form. State Attorney General Xavier Becerra has filed a lawsuit seeking to block the question. California has the largest Hispanic population in the country with more than 15 million people, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. The devastating wildfires in 2018 destroyed more than 14,600 housing units, including 90% of the housing stock in Paradise. The result

is a population boom in the nearby cities. Chico added 19,000 people, the largest gain in the state, while Sacramento was second with an additional 7,400 people. State officials expect California to continue to grow, predicting the state’s population could top 50 million

by 2055. Official forecasts show the state’s population getting steadily older as the birth rate continues falling. By 2051, officials project the state will join Japan and other European countries by having more deaths than births. Source: NBC Palm Springs

The birth rate for Hispanic women fell by 31% from 2007 to 2017, a decline that demographers attribute to generational differences between Hispanic immigrants and those born in America. (spass/Adobe)

Veteran Raising Awareness about Unexpected Parkinson’s Symptoms

It turned out that these delusions and hallucinations were non-motor symptoms of Parkinson’s disease, which McFarland had been diagnosed with years before. For McFarland, these symptoms were harder to manage than the motor symptoms typically associated with Parkinson’s disease, such as tremors, rigidity or slowness of movement. “My neurologist was able to recognize my non-motor symptoms of Parkinson’s. Some of my hallucinations and delusions were frightening to me and upsetting to my loved ones,

and adjusting my treatment helped lessen this burden,” he says. “To help others recognize these symptoms, I’ve gotten involved in my local Parkinson’s support group, and am sharing my story.” Although there is no clear understanding of the exact cause of hallucinations and delusions associated with Parkinson’s, around half of all people with Parkinson’s may experience these symptoms over the course of their disease. For McFarland, when he first began to experience hallucinations and delusions, he recognized that what he was seeing and believing wasn’t quite real. But it was confusing to him and as his condition progressed, he began to lose insight. For example, his belief that the end of the world was coming was triggered by a brief news story about a sink hole in South America. He also began to distrust family and friends. After his wife left a camping trip early, he became suspicious that she might be trying to connect with an old boyfriend. In reality, she had simply needed a muchdeserved break from work and caregiving responsibilities. Left unaddressed, these non-movement symptoms can impact people with Parkinson’s and their care partners’ ability to make plans with family and friends and even sleep,

according to a recent survey conducted by the Parkinson’s Movement Disorder Alliance. Experts say that if you believe you or a loved one is experiencing hallucinations or delusions as a result of Parkinson’s disease, the first step is talking to a movement disorder specialist. You can also go to MoretoParkinsons. com to learn more about what to expect and how to start the conversation with a physician. While doctors may be able to address non-motor symptoms like hallucinations and delusions, it’s important to keep in mind that everyone is different and for some, other non-motor symptoms may still persist. McFarland continues to struggle with depression and anxiety, which are other common non-movement symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. McFarland sees a therapist to help manage those symptoms. Having a greater understanding of the disease and its possible symptoms has helped the McFarlands deal with them as they arise. “Opening up about my fears and beliefs led to an improvement in my treatment plan and I’m experiencing fewer non-movement symptoms,” says McFarland. “I hope that my story will encourage others to recognize these symptoms in themselves and others, because there are options to help.” StatePoint

Desert. The gallery is open between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. Monday through Thursday, and by appointment. For more information, please

Clint Eastwood’s “The Mule” Now On DVD Award-winning actor/ director Clint Eastwood first entered the scene on May 31, 1930, in California. He’s still going strong, and at age 88 he completed his 90th film “The Mule” now available on DVD and Blu ray. This past weekend I spent a lot of time with Clint. First I watched him in “The Mule” on DVD to review it for this week’s column. On the following day, I saw him in “El Torino” on TV. , and in each case, Eastwood plays a feisty, somewhat cantankerous old man who has problems connecting with his family. “The Mule” is based on an actual drug runner, Leo Sharp whose story was first told by Sam Dolnick in the New York Times. In the film, Sharp’s name has been changed to Earl Stone. We first meet Earl happily tending the plants in his nursery, but financial trouble looms. Unable to pay his debts he reluctantly puts his home and nursery up for sale. But an opportunity arises at a party for his granddaughter Ginny (Taissa Farmiga) who is about to be married. A

young Hispanic guest tells Earl about a contact who might be able to use him as a driver. When Earl applies, he’s hired for a run. He’s given a medium sized cloth bag which is placed in the trunk of his truck. He is told not to open the bag. Upon arrival at the drop off location, he should park and leave the keys in his unlocked vehicle. The next day he will find his payment. True to their word he finds an envelope filled with a substantial amount of cash. The drug cartel hired him because they felt no one would suspect an old white guy of running drugs. They were right, and all goes well and according to plan. After his first delivery Earl has enough money to pay off his debts, buy a new truck and pay for Ginny’s wedding. This gesture doesn’t repair the rupture in his relationship with his only child, Iris ( played by Eastwood’s actual daughter Alison.) It does go slightly better with his ex-wife Mary (Dianne Wiest) who still seems to care about him despite their past. Earl continues working for

the drug cartel headed by an amiable Andy Garcia (“Ocean’s Eleven,” “The Godfather Part III”). He’s happy to earn all the extra cash, which he often uses to help others like his granddaughter and the local VFW community center which needs $25,000 to stay open. Earl is pleased with this new found opportunity, and the cartel is equally happy with his ability to go unnoticed. Soon he is asked to carry out more extensive deliveries. It’s fun to watch Clint carry out his duties. He enjoys the job and the money and

cheerfully sings along with his radio as he drives to his drop off destinations. Thanks to an informer DEA agents Colin Bates (Bradley Cooper) and Laurence Fishburne successfully crack down on many drug smugglers. However, the informant is unable to identify the most successful mule, due to a code name given to Earl by the cartel. At one point in the story, an innocent Latino man in a black truck is pulled over by DEA agents who suspect he may be the elusive mule

with the code name “Tata.” This is why Earl was hired in the first place. Who would suspect an 80-year-old white man to be a cartel mule? “The Mule,” from Warner Bros., has a running time of 116 minutes. Rated R for language throughout and brief sexuality and nudity. The DVD and Blu-ray version of “The Mule” has a featurette entitled “Nobody Runs Forever: The Making of The Mule.” The Blu-ray Combo Pack also has a feature entitled Toby Keith “Don’t Let the Old Man In” Music Video.

By Desert Star Staff CONCORD, N.H. – A bipartisan effort to end gerrymandering in New Hampshire received a boost Wednesday. A bill to create an independent advisory commission to redraw lines for political offices had a public hearing in the state Senate, after passing the House of Representatives in February. House Bill 706 would create a 15-member commission made up of five Republicans, five Democrats and five unaffiliated voters. State Rep. David Danielson, a Republican from Bedford, is one of 11 co-sponsors. He says a public commission is a better approach to redrawing districts than the traditional closed-door process in the State Capitol. “Ideally what it does, is it

than party registration. Many cite the District 2 Executive Council seat, representing an area that spans from the seacoast to the Vermont border, as an example of a district drawn for political reasons. Danielson says an independent process could even result in fewer partisan battles. “I would hope that’s what it is going to do is, it’ll take a little bit of that ‘us and them’ type of thing out of the process,” he states. “In reality, you know, it’s politics, but the intensity won’t be as great as it is right now.” House Bill 706 passed the House on a vote of 218 to 123, with bipartisan support. After Wednesday’s hearing, the Senate Election Law and Municipal Affairs Committee is expected to vote on it next week.

Support Builds to End Gerrymandering levels the field a bit, so that you don’t keep having these overwhelming gerrymandered districts,” he explains. “What the bill does is try to bring more consistency to the process, and also make the process more representative, and that we represent those districts as best we can.” The commission would hold hearings across the state to seek public input on legislative boundaries. At least nine commission members would have to approve any redistricting proposal they send to the General Court. Under New Hampshire’s Constitution, the legislature has the power to approve districts. Supporters of the idea maintain a public commission would make the drawing of new districts less partisan, and would group voters by common interests rather

New Hampshire’s District 2 Executive Council seat, which crosses the state from the seacoast to Vermont, is often cited as an example of gerrymandering. (Granite State Progress)

Florida’s Parental Consent Abortion Bill Stalls

By Desert Star Staff TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — In the final week of Florida’s legislative session, it appears a bill has stalled that would have required minors to get parental consent before having an abortion. Florida law currently requires parents to be notified if their daughter is planning to have an abortion, but the bill which already passed the House, goes further by requiring parental consent. The bill includes exemptions for situations such as minors who have health emergencies or who already have children. However, opponents such as Kimberly Scott, director of public policy with the Florida Alliance for Planned Parenthood Affiliates, said the policy would be a safety risk and would keep vulnerable teens from accessing timely medical care. “Especially for those that might be abused or neglected

or are homeless or foster youth that unfortunately may not have a good relationship with their parents, you know they have dysfunctional family environments,” Scott said. Supporters claim parents have a unique perspective to advise a child. While the Republican-led House voted 69-44 largely along party lines for the bill, the Senate version still has two committee stops, and is one vote shy of the required supermajority to send the bill directly to the Senate floor for a vote. The lawmaking session ends Friday, May 3. Minors who do not wish to involve their parents can seek a waiver from a court to bypass the consent requirement; but they would have to convince a judge that they are mature enough to choose abortion for themselves. Scott said requiring consent only adds unnecessary barriers

A Florida bill sponsored by state Rep. Erin Grall, R-Vero Beach, would require that a minor get written, notarized permission from a parent or legal guardian to obtain an abortion. (Gulcinglr/Pixabay) to an already difficult and emotional process. “It stigmatizes, one, this procedure,” she said. “But two, it alienates these minors to seek perhaps other unsafe methods of getting what they are trying to get.”

A previous law was ruled unconstitutional in 1989 by the Florida Supreme Court over concern for privacy rights. If the bill were to pass this legislative session, it could stand a chance of being upheld in a Supreme

Court challenge, since the high court has three new conservative justices. Leading medical groups, including the American Medical Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics, all oppose parental-consent laws.

Families Unable to Afford Food, Many Don’t Qualify for Assistance

By Desert Star Staff BEREA, Ky. – More than 600,000 Kentuckians, many of them children, are going hungry, according to a new “Map the Meal Gap” report by the group Feeding America. The report, which looked at food insecurity in all 120 counties in the state, found Magoffin County had the highest rate of food insecurity, at 22.5%. Oldham County had the least number of people going hungry, at 7.6%. Jamie Sizemore, executive director of Feeding America, Kentucky’s Heartland, says families working minimumwage or low-income jobs are struggling the most, because many do not qualify for federal food assistance or SNAP benefits. “What we’re finding is, we’re seeing more and

more working families that are just scraping to get by, living paycheck to paycheck,” she explains. “And so what frequently happens is, they may have something happen in their household like a car breaking down. Food just typically is the last thing on the list.” The number of foodinsecure people living in Kentucky remains higher than the rest of the country. Nationwide, 78 percent of counties with the highest rates of food insecurity are rural, according to the report. Children are especially vulnerable when it comes to hunger. According to the report, food insecurity among Kentucky children is 18%, compared with 15% for the overall population. During the summer, children don’t have access to regular

school nutrition programs. Currently, the federal Summer Food Service Program helps feed children in need when school is not in session, but Sizemore says the program’s strict requirements on how and when children can be fed don’t always align with life in rural communities.

“Right now, it has to be a congregated meal,” she explains. “They have to actually sit down and serve that meal. That’s just not viable when you’re living in rural Kentucky. “So, we’re working really hard to try to feed those people. But it’s just a Band-Aid. We’ve got to get

to the root causes. We’ve got to look for other ways. And until we do that, food insecurity is going to persist.” The rising cost of a meal is another contributor to food insecurity. The report found that since 2017, food prices have been steadily inching upward.
