Constipated Nation U.S. government shuts down for first time in 17 years as budget talks fail From Desert Star Wire WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. federal government has partially shut down after Congress failed to fund its work amid a Republican drive to defund the Obamacare healthcare program. President Barack Obama addressed U.S. troops to boost their confidence amid the crisis. The Congress left the government without funding as competing spending measures
bounced back and forth between the Republican-controlled House of Representatives and Democratic-led Senate late into Monday night. The partial shutdown will leave some essential government functions, including national security and public safety, intact. It’s not clear how long the situation will continue, with lawmakers expected to take further votes.
If the shutdown persists, it will affect an estimated 800,000 of public workers, who will be forced into unpaid leave as the government would be unable to fund their employment. National parks and most federal offices are closed, as is almost all of NASA, except for Mission Control in Houston. The U.S. Department of Agriculture website went blank on Tuesday, leaving only a warning
Fundraiser is Hot to Trot
that it’s not available due to the lapse in federal government funding. The shutdown also affects the Smithsonian museums and the National Zoo — going as far as shutting off the zoo’s popular “panda cam.” The crisis will initially cost the U.S. economy at least $300 million a day in lost economic output, warned Bloomberg, citing IHS Inc., a Massachusetts-based economic forecast company.
President Obama assumed his role as commander-in-chief to address U.S. troops around the world. He said Congress had failed American soldiers in causing the government shutdown. He pledged that the White House would do everything possible to ensure that troops currently on active duty would receive everything they needed. The budgetary breakdown raised fresh concerns about Continues on Page 6
Desert AIDS Walk, a Popular Draw, Hits Pavement Oct. 19 PA L M SPRINGS – Throughout its 30 years of service in the communities of the Coachella Valley, dedicated volunteers, donors, and sponsors have been the lifeblood of Desert AIDS Project. During a quartercentury of Desert AIDS Walks, they have helped to raise almost $6.25 million from friends and families, as well as through significant sponsorships from community partnerships. Stepping forward once again to show their support as top fundraisers, local heroes
including Patrick Jordan, Keith Markovitz, Rick Draughon, Barbara Keller, Mark Anton and Linda Stevens invite you to join the fun at the 26th Desert AIDS Walk, presented by the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians, beginning at 7:30 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 19, at Ruth Hardy Park. Walgreens, which has an in-house pharmacy at D.A.P. for client convenience, will be the Walk’s Health and Wellness Fair presenting sponsor. Other sponsors include Pride Card
Services, Desert Regional Medical Center and Eisenhower Medical Center. Participants can stroll through the fairgrounds and enjoy some early-morning coffee and muffins from Koffi before warming up for the Walk with Kristin Olson of Urban Yoga. Once a few calories are burned on the Walk, there will be sandwiches from Subway and tempting ice cream from Ben & Jerry’s back at Ruth Hardy Park. Continues on Page 8

Is D.C. Dysfunction Here to Stay?
By Kevin Powell Once again the greatest country on the planet faces a government shutdown. Depending on your political ideologies, there’s plenty of blame to go around. Democrats point the finger at angry Republicans who are trying to seek revenge for losing the past two Presidential elections. Republicans seem bent on doing all they can to derail the Affordable Care Act (ObamaCare). The President has said he’s not willing to negotiate on any points that deal with the country’s ability to pay our bills. Who’s right? Probably no one. Who’s wrong? Probably every elected politician.

The truth is we’ve known this deadline was looming for months. Just like we knew it was looming in 2011 and 2012. Stock markets have dropped every time we’ve been pushed to the brink. Yet no one wants to step up to the plate to try and avert these potential disasters. We didn’t elect Congressional leaders to merely point fingers. There’s real work that needs to be done yet there doesn’t seem to be many people willing to roll up their sleeves and tackle this problem once and for all. Why can’t we implement a longer term solution to the debt ceiling? There is no doubt Congress will increase the debt limit-eventually. They’ve done it nearly 30 times in the past 30 years. It should not be that difficult to devise a plan where the debt ceiling increases as a percentage of GDP, tax revenues . . . whatever. What’s truly frightening about the whole mess is that while politicians are feuding, our national debt is soaring-nearly $17 TRILLION today. That’s an increase of roughly seventy
percent over the past five years. It’s the largest increase during any President’s term. The government has run deficits of more than $1 trillion annually for the past four years. Also the first time in history that’s happened. Thankfully, the deficit is projected to be a little
less than $1 trillion in 2013. That’s greatly due to the Sequester and higher tax revenues that have been collected. Spending has to be reined in. Taxes revenues have to increase and the best way to do that is to create new jobs. The clock is
ticking and the time is slipping away for our families and the good ole’ USA.
One Insurance Industry Expert Weighs In on Obamacare
switched to the government plan, you must be “medically approved” to go back to a private plan. If your rate is reasonably the same, you might consider staying with the private plan. As less-healthy patients leave your private health plan for cheaper rates and move to Obamacare, claims will go down and you may see premium reductions. Why? Because of the Medical Loss Ratio (MLR). Under the Patient Protection Act, an insurance company must pay out 80 percent of its income for claims. If claims go down, so should your premium. Tax Credits: For those with lower incomes, premium subsidies are available. These tax credits are on a sliding scale based on income. An eligible individual is a taxpayer whose modified adjusted gross income is between 138 percent and 400 percent of the federal poverty level. Based on 2013 federal poverty level guidelines, to be eligible for a subsidy, a single individual’s income could range from $11,490 (100 percent subsidized) to $45,960, and a couple’s income could range from $15,510 (100 percent subsidized) to $62,040. Proof of income must be submitted in order to receive credits.

By Janice Gough The open enrollment period mandated by the federal law titled the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, commonly referred to as “Obamacare,” began Oct. 1. If you have no health insurance, you must enroll by Jan. 1 in the California Health Benefit Exchange (HBEX) — rebranded, for user-friendly purposes, Covered California

A TV Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups
television
By Theda Kleinhans Reichman As children we grew up on Grimm’s Fairy Tales. Often the plots were, indeed, grim as princesses like Snow White had to cope with evil queens and stepmothers who were not so loving. Actually the Evil Queen in “Snow White� was a pretty horrible, albeit beautiful, woman who was out to “do in� the more beautiful Snow White. In 1938, Walt Disney brought this classic fairy tale to the screen is his first full-length animated feature. Eventually, we all grow up and read fairy tales to our own children. Now, thanks to ABC-TV, we can be kids again watching “Once Upon a Time,� which is launching its third season. (Seasons one and two are available on DVD.)
In the first season we met the residents of Storybrooke. The Evil Queen in the present day is Regina, the town’s mayor. She has an adopted son named Henry who is the real son of Emma Swan. The characters have lives in the present as well as hidden fairy tale lives from the past. In the second season the curse is broken, magic has arrived and many new characters are unleashed. A new “reality� settles over the town of Storybrooke as old loyalties are tested and love and sacrifice will set the stage for the “ultimate battle between good and evil.� While new fairy tale characters enter the scene old ones are still there, like Robert Carlyle as Rumplestiltskin/Mr. Gold, Ginnifer Goodwin as Snow White/Mary Margaret and Jennifer Morrison as Emma Swan. If you are a fan of the show and have followed the blend of fairy tale past and present-day
reality this will all make sense. If you missed any of the 22 segments, now is the chance to catch up with them on DVD. The five-disc boxed set has bonus features like “A Fractured Family Tree,� which explores the tangled magical genealogy behind the
series’ fairy tale family, and “Sincerely Hook� which sets sail with Colin O’Donoghue (Killian Jones/Capt. Hook). The set also includes “Girl Power,� about Storybrooke’s fearless female characters, who fight for love and justice between
the realms of magic and reality. And there’s “The Fairest Bloopers of Them All,� which will have you laughing out loud; plus deleted scenes and audio commentaries. So settle in with over 900 minutes of “Once Upon A Time� magic!
RANCHO MIRAGE – Famously edgy stand-up comedian Lewis Black is gearing up to incite laughter with an unforgettable night at The Show, at Agua Caliente Casino Resort Spa, on Friday, Oct. 25. Black’s comedy routines are known for providing a cathartic release of anger and disillusionment: he yells so you don’t have to. He’s also known as a passionate performer — a rare comic who can cause an audience to laugh itself silly while making compelling points about the absurdity of today’s world.
The comedian, who was born in Silver Spring, Md., and eventually settled in New York City, became the playwrightin-residence at the West Bank CafÊ’s Downstairs Theatre Bar. He also oversaw the development of more than 1,000 plays, including works by Aaron Sorkin, creator of television’s “The West Wing.â€? Black performs over 200 nights a year to sold-out audiences throughout Europe, New Zealand, Canada and the U.S. He is one of the few entertainers to have enjoyed
sold-out dates at many renowned theatres, including Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, Brooks Atkinson Theatre, New York City Center and the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. In August 2007, he was the first stand-up comedian to ever perform in concert at the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles. Lewis goes onstage at The Show at 9 p.m. Tickets are $5 and can be purchased at www. hotwatercasino.com/theshow or in-person at the Essentials Gift Shop at the Agua Caliente Casino Resort Spa.

Indie Artists Break New Ground, Reach for Stars music By Robert Kinsler Indie champions Mazzy Star, Americana troupe The Fallen Stars and U.K. legends New Model Army are featured on groundbreaking new album releases.
Artist: Mazzy Star Title: Seasons Of Your Day (Rhymes of an Hour Records) Listen if you enjoy: Cowboy Junkies, My Bloody Valentine, Hope Sandoval and the Warm Inventions, Beach House Tell me more: It is so exciting to hear new music from the talented duo of singer Hope Sandoval and guitarist David Roback that it’s easy to lose sight of how truly great the songs on “Seasons Of Your Day” really are. Mazzy Star’s fourth full-length album is
the group’s first new album in 17 years and was truly worth the wait. The songs here are more straightforward, with less reverb obfuscating Sandoval’s haunting soprano. Roback’s freewheeling acoustic guitar play (including some impressive slide work) is layered in dreamy arrangements, with pedal steel, light percussion and keyboards painting a melancholy soundscape across the 10 tracks. The sparse “California” and beautiful title track explore the quiet corner of Mazzy Star’s world, while “Common Burn” showcases more tensile sonic terrain. The accessible and infectious folk rocker “Lay Myself Down” is simply a great listen. Information: http:// www.eaglerockent.com/
Artist: The Fallen Stars Title: Leaves on the Wind - Vol. 1: Still Flying (Kiss My Squirrel Music) Listen if you enjoy: Steve Earle, Gram Parsons, Emmylou Harris Tell me more: It’s not surprising that Joss Whedon’s groundbreaking 2002 TV show “Firefly” would inspire The Fallen Stars. Just as that influential series effortlessly blended science fiction and 19th century American West styles in each of its memorable episodes, Americana troupe The
Fallen Stars somehow blends traditional country influences by the likes of Gram Parsons with an emphasis on timeless songcraft that would be at home anywhere in the universe. “Leaves on the Wind - Vol. 1: Still Flying” is the beginning of an ambitious trek by The Fallen Stars to write and record a song centered around each of the 14 episodes from the show as well as one in sync with the subsequent 2005 film “Serenity.” Based on the first 5 songs featured on volume 1 of the project, The Fallen Stars’ quest is a good one. Information: http://www. thefallenstars.com/. Artist: New Model Army Title: Between Dog and Wolf (earMusic / Eagle Rock Entertainment)
Listen if you enjoy: Genesis, Porcupine Tree, Elbow Tell me more: There are a range of rewarding performances and atmospheric textures across the latest disc from Bradford, United Kingdom export New Model Army (singer Justin Sullivan, drummer Michael Dean, keyboardist Dean White, guitarist Marshall Gill and bassist Ceri Monger). “Between Dog and Wolf” features 14 tracks built around arresting rhythms and artful dynamics that recall other British giants including Peter Gabrielera Genesis and modern day heroes Elbow. The sweeping “Seven Times,” hypnotic “Pull the Sun,” and introspective “Did You Make It Safe” are among the many standouts on a truly epic album. Information: www. NewModelArmy.org.

ConSTipATEd nATion Continued from Page 1 whether lawmakers can meet a crucial mid-October deadline to raise the government’s $16.7 trillion debt ceiling. Gerald Celente, publisher of the journal Trends, said the current crisis is “more theatrics than anything else,” as with previous U.S. political gridlocks. “It’s the Washington drama queens doing what they always do — behaving in a manner that is unbecoming of professionals and adults,” Celente said. The partial shutdown on Tuesday is the first for the US government in 17 years. It comes after Congress missed the Monday midnight deadline for passing a federal budget. As a condition for keeping the gover nment funded, Republicans were demanding a one-year delay in making millions of people buy health insurance under the Obama administration’s 2010 healthcare law, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. The attack on the White House’s key political measure
was spearheaded by Republican conservatives from the Tea Party, culminating three years of polarization in America. The Senate twice rejected the proposed provisions, while Obama said he would veto the House-backed legislation. The Congressional deadlock has driven the legislature’s approval rating down to a record low 10 percent, according to a new CNN/ORC International Poll. President Obama’s approval is down to 44 percent. According to a Reuters/ Ipsos poll on who is responsible for the crisis, most Americans, 44 percent, believe it’s everyone involved. Another 25 percent blame Republicans, while 14 percent blame Obama and 5 percent blame Democrats in Congress. As the shutdown loomed Monday, visitors to popular parks made their frustration with elected officials clear. “There is no good thing going to come out of it,” Chris
PALM DESERT – The City of Palm Desert is proud to announce that Connie Golds and Theresa Maggio are recipients of the City’s 2013 ATHENA Awards. Maggio will receive the Corporate ATHENA Award and Golds the Entrepreneurial ATHENA Award. A luncheon will be held in their honor on Wednesday, October 30, at 11:30 a.m. at Desert Willow Golf Resort. In addition, three deserving college students — Maria E. Haigh, Jenny Beelke, and Andrea Vargas — will be presented with ATHENA scholarships at the awards ceremony. The scholarships are provided by Burrtec Waste & Recycling Services, past ATHENA recipients and The Gas Company. Golds and Maggio, two exceptional women, were selected as this year’s ATHENA honorees because they have achieved excellence in their respective fields, served the community in a meaningful
way, and assisted women in reaching their leadership potential — all criteria for an ATHENA Award nomination. Connie Golds has combined inspired vision with hard work and dedication in the creation and operation of Desert Best Friend’s Closet. The five-year-old nonprofit serves a vital function in the community by giving appropriate work attire to women and men who otherwise do not have access to needed clothing. Desert Best Friend’s Closet also provides prom dresses to disadvantaged high school girls and ball gowns to the wives of United States Marines, all at no charge. Golds has a demonstrated history of commitment and service in Palm Desert and the Coachella Valley beyond her work as the president and co-founder of Desert Best Friend’s Closet. She serves on the Scholarship Committee of the Desert
President Barack Obama’s countenance reflects that of the rest of the nation after a political impasse led the government to cease operation. Fahl, a tourist, told AP as he toured Abraham Lincoln Birthplace National Historic Park in Kentucky. “Taxpayers are just going to be more overburdened.” “They should be willing to compromise, both sides, and it discourages me that they don’t seem to be able to do that,”
said Emily Enfinger, a visitor to the Statue of Liberty. “They’re not doing their job as far as I’m concerned.” The crisis appeared to be strangely captivating for some foreigners. “We can’t imagine not having a national health system,” said
Marlena Knight, an Australian native visiting Independence National Historical Park in Philadelphia. “I just can’t believe that this country can shut down over something like a national health system. Totally bizarre, as an Australian, but fascinating.”
Community Foundation and is a board member of Women Leaders Forum of the Desert. Past service includes being a founding member of Sheltering Sisters, the auxiliary for Shelter from the Storm, as well as co-chair of the UCLA Alumni Scholarship Committee. She also served on the Board of Trustees for Marywood Palm Valley School and volunteered for 13 years as a Girl Scout Leader, including three years as district “cookie coordinator.” Golds’s contributions to the community have been recognized by multiple organizations. She received, on behalf of her organization, the 2010 Community Service Award from the Palm Desert Area Chamber of Commerce, the 2010 Ruby Award for Women Helping Women from the Palm Desert Soroptimists, and several awards connected to her volunteer service with the Girl Scouts — including the national Girl Scouts USA Appreciation Award for outstanding service. Theresa Maggio has built a well-deserved reputation for creativity and excellence, both as a top-tier marketing professional and in her work on behalf of her community. As the marketing director at Bighorn Golf Club for 11 years, Maggio has demonstrated mastery in advertising and public relations while building a wealth of unforgettable memories for Bighorn members through the variety of special events that her team organizes and coordinates each year. Her work with Bighorm BAM (Behind a Miracle) for the past seven years has laid the groundwork for what has become Eisenhower Medical
Center’s largest private fundraiser. Thanks in large part to Maggio’s marketing team, Bighorn BAM, created by cancer survivor and Bighorn member Selby Dunham, has raised more than $3.3 million for the 25,000 breast cancer patients who are treated each year. Annually, Maggio collaborates with The Shops on El Paseo to create A Miracle on El Paseo, which partners 40 stores, restaurants and sponsors in a holiday event that attracts more than 800 attendees. Participating retailers donate 10 percent of sales to the Eisenhower Lucy Curci Cancer Center. Other work on the community’s behalf includes
Maggio’s ongoing service to Xavier College Preparatory High School, volunteering with Sacred Heart School, and serving as the vice chair of the City of Palm Desert’s Marketing Committee. Founded in 1982 in Lansing, Mich., the ATHENA Awards program is now presented in hundreds of cities across the U.S. and Canada. The Palm Desert ATHENA Awards are sponsored locally by FirstBank and the City of Palm Desert. Tickets to the awards luncheon are $45 per person. Reservations must be made before 5 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 16. For reservations and for more info, please call 760-346-0611, ext. 425.

Cabot’s Newfound ‘Well-Being
Excerpts from a History of Desert Hot Springs By John J. Hunt Cabot had struck water 40 feet down in the sand, but it was hot — too hot to stand in — and, as he said, he had no money to buy boots. But if nothing else, Cabot was an ingenious soul. This, and his stubborn persistence, allowed him to be the first person to discover the hot mineral water that would later put the town of Desert Hot Springs on the map. His struggle continues in my book “The Waters of Comfort (The Story of Desert Hot Springs, California)”: “So Cabot devised another ploy. ‘I took two five gallon tin cans, the square kind, cut the tops out and filled them with cold water. These were put in the bottom of the well. When I came down the ladder I carefully
put one foot in each can of cold water.’ When the cold water got hot, he refilled the cans and started anew. In this way he was able to finish the well. “Cabot would go on to dig more wells. And he helped his neighbors dig theirs, like the Dickson’s, and Bill Anderson, and Bill Riley. He helped Walter Woods dig down 120 feet, the deepest hand-dug well in the area. He and Anderson dug a dry hole down sixty-five feet for Frank Houghton, near to Cabot’s holdings. Ford Beebe hit cold water, and so did Cabot. “Though occupied with dousing and digging wells for most of 1914, we know where Cabot was on October 5th — at the Queen of Angels Hospital in Los Angeles, where Margaret (Mame) had given birth to a healthy boy. Rodney Yerxa is
considered by most to be the first Anglo to be born to settlers in this part of the desert. “Cabot doesn’t remember exactly the moment when it came to him that his discoveries were something special, but he began early on referring to his holdings as ‘Miracle Hill.’ But years later he knew precisely the merit in his discoveries. ‘These were the first wells, and as time moved on much more digging was accomplished. But the first hot one at the foot of Miracle Hill of 132 [F] discovered by me in 1914 was the one of importance because it established the pattern and the possibility for a health resort at Desert Hot Springs as we know it now, and which is but a beginning for a great expanding future.’” To be continued…

Also with Sioux Indians, those denizens of the plains, still living in their traditional tepees. His first practical job was on a country newspaper. He learned to set type and developed a flair and marked ability to write. Setting type taught him spelling and grammar. By the time he was 20, he had a small country newspaper of his own.

Bar Fundraiser a ‘Knock Out’ Story and Photos by Pat Krause PALM SPRINGS – The first annual “Rock Out to Knock Out Hunger” dance party fundraiser was held last Saturday at Bar to cap Hunger Awareness Month. Guests were asked to donate a $10.00 cover charge and bring canned items to help feed the hungry. Palm Springs City Councilman Paul Lewin presented Lisa Houston, CEO of FIND Food Bank, with a
proclamation in honor of Hunger Awareness Month. Houston is working to make the Coachella Valley to be a “hunger-free zone.” The Santa Monica-based band Famous for Nothing provided the evening’s music, and and the large crowd of attendees had a great time “rocking out.” FIND Food Bank, based in Indio, currently distributes
food to 80,000 people per month through a network of local partners, including food pantries, shelters, soup kitchens, senior centers and after-school programs. Any donation is helpful, as $10 can provide up to 70 meals. For more information, visit www. findfoodbank.org.
Get Tested Coachella Valley will be the nation’s firstever, region-wide campaign dedicated to dramatically reducing transmission of HIV. To encourage the efforts of these community partners, half of the net proceeds raised by each of these Walk partners will go back to the coffers of their own organizations, while the other half will benefit D.A.P.’s care, prevention and advocacy efforts. “In our valley, the prevalence of HIV is estimated at 67 percent higher than the national average – which puts everyone at greater risk — especially when you consider that nearly 70 percent of Coachella Valley residents have never been tested for HIV,”
said David Brinkman, CEO of Desert AIDS Project. “We’re so gratified that essential decisionmakers and influencers have joined our Walk and signed up with Get Tested Coachella Valley because the CDC estimates that approximately one in five people living with HIV in the U.S. don’t know they are infected.” The good news: the journal Science hailed an international study as the “2011 Breakthrough of the Year” when it proved that an individual who begins taking the right medications soon after becoming HIV-positive is 96 percent less likely to pass the virus to others. “Expect to hear a lot more about Get Tested Coachella Valley from D.A.P.
and the other coalition partners in the months to come,” said Brinkman. “But in the meantime, here’s hoping everyone will join us at the Walk and continue to spread the word to ‘Walk – Get Tested – Stop AIDS.’” Desert AIDS Project serves people living with HIV and AIDS by providing comprehensive support, including medical care, case management and social services — such as food, housing and counseling. D.A.P. also offers free and confidential HIV testing at a number of locations throughout the communities it serves.

Golf Classic is a testament to the value the Edward-Dean Museum & Gardens brings to our community, and a great reason for us to show our support for a county gem.” The Golf Classic is in support of the museum’s programs, which provide local school children with tours designed to enrich their knowledge of European and Asian decorative arts. Several celebrities are, in turn, supporting the benefit competition — including Don Felder, the renowned former lead guitarist of The Eagles. Felder, a four-time Grammy winner and a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Star of the hit television crime series, “Criminal Minds,” Joe Mantegna has had an illustrious career starring in such movies as “The Rat Pack,” “Elvis & Annabelle” and “Cars 2.” Wa s h i n g t o n , D.C., saxophonist Ski Johnson has
developed a captivating soulful jazz style that has landed him Grammy consideration five times in his career. His 2012 album “UnderDogs on Top” climbed to number 30 on the Billboard Top Heatseekers Chart. Luc Robitaille is undoubtedly one of the greatest and most popular players to ever lace up a pair of hockey skates. The onetime L.A. Kings captain won a Stanley Cup with the Detroit Red Wings before returning to the Kings, where he finished out his career in 2006 as the highest-scoring left winger in NHL history. Inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2009, Luc became the president of business operations for the L.A. Kings, where he was an integral part of the management team that brought the Kings their first Stanley Cup in franchise history. For more info, visit edwarddeanmuseum.org/golf or call 866-760-8784.

Imported Tea Offers the Total(ing) Package PALM SPRINGS – Some choose teas for flavor. Some for comfort. Some for health. Rooibos, known as a “miracle tea” in its native South Africa, delivers all three benefits in one savory organic-herbal brew. Rooibos contains no sugar, calories, caffeine or preservatives; it is high in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. The tea has anti-spasmodic properties that help relieve stomach cramps, indigestion and heartburn, and it also contains alpha-hydroxy acid, which promotes healthy skin. The Rooibos plant, being a member of the legume family, is vibrant green and sprouts yellow flowers. The plant is unique in that, depending on the harvesting method using, it can produce both a “red” and a “green” tea — each with its own distinct flavor.
For the red tea, the plants are harvested, bruised (causing fermentation) and then dried in the sun, which induces the color change from green to mahogany. Its flavor is fruity and delicious. Creating the green Rooibos tea bypasses fermentation. The plants are dried immediately to a light green / tan color. The taste is mild, similar to conventional green tea, but it is higher in antioxidants. Rooibos is carried by Desert Artists – Gifts & Imported Teas at 280 N. Palm Canyon Dr., which stocks flavors including berry, cinnamon apple, mango, peach, vanilla chai and more. For store hours and info, call 760778-4200.

The Sparrow Hotel Alights in Palm Springs
Stylish rusticity and contemporary comfort dovetail perfectly at The Sparrow Hotel. (Photos by Pat Krause) By Pamela Price PALM SPRINGS – Here is this much-renovated city’s ultimate “motel” makeover success story: The Sparrows Hotel. The property was formerly the EL Rancho Lodge, which opened
in the 1950s as a roadside motel and languished for years until Doug and Josie Smith stepped in and transformed it into a Western-themed mini-resort with 19 guestrooms. The Smiths had great
success with another Palm Springs hideaway, the chic Korakia Pensione. For the record, Korakia translates to crow in Greek. So it’s fitting they chose a new bird-inspired name for their latest project.
Re-Elect NANCY S.
WRIGHT
Director, Mission Springs Water District
The old El Rancho Lodge would have galvanized movie fans had it been used in a scene from a mid-century film noir detective drama. (My travel pal said “sleazy” would be the operative word.) But that was yesterday. Hold on to your crew cut and pony tail, because this relic has undergone what most of my friends have had — a serious facelift. In this case, The Sparrows Hotel has emerged a white swan. It is an ugly roadside duckling no more. As a rebel against cookiecutter hotels, The Sparrows makes a refreshing statement in the boutique hotel category. It was chosen as one of nine new design-driven hotels in the U.S. to open this year by Fodors.com. On its blog, Fodor’s referred to it as a “funky,” while UrbanDaddy. com called it “aggressively rustic.” Point your iPhone in any direction and something clever pops up. Noteworthy is a horse trough repurposed as a bathtub
— perfect for anyone fitting into a size 10 or under. The hotel’s 25-foot-long barn, with its exposed wood, is the “hangout” conveniently adjacent to the swimming pool. House-baked pizzas are promised. Guestrooms showcase soft comforts but television and telephones are absent. Dogs are welcome; however, no children, please. The Sparrows Hotel is something to chirp about — and just in time for Modernism Week. Their sign at 1330 E. Palm Canyon near Sunrise is symbolically low-key, too: an image of two sparrows and nothing else. Rates start at $175 a night. Call 760-327-2300 or visit thesparrows.hotel.com.

PALM SPRINGS – The Palm Springs Annual Tram Road Challenge returns Oct. 26, 2013. The Tram Road Challenge is a 6K uphill run/walk presented by the Palm Aerial Tram. For over 25 years, runners and walkers from around the world have been taking on the challenge. This year Save-A-Pet Animal Hospital staff will participate in climbing 2,000 vertical feet in just over 3.7 miles. All finishers receive a customized finisher’s medal. Save-A-Pet often has clients who bring in their animals but who do not have funds to pay for the medical treatment. The organization has criteria and a process in place to ensure the best use of funds raised to
provide financial assistance. Rusty, a veterinary technician at Save-A-Pet’s hospital, is gearing up for the Tram Challenge to raise money to help people who cannot afford necessary medical care for their dogs or cats. This year, fellow veterinary technician Dhana and hospital manager Skip are joining Rusty by walking in this difficult event. Please help support this compassionate team by sponsoring their participation. You can make a donation by phone at 760-251-1400 or by mail: P.O. Box 602, Desert Hot Springs, Calif., 92240.

Steve Martin, Edie Brickell Tune Up
PALM DESERT – Steve Martin and Edie Brickell, along with the Steep Canyon Rangers, will perform songs from their new album, “Love Has Come for You,” on Wednesday, Oct. 9, at the McCallum Theatre. The evening presentation will showcase new material performed by Martin and Brickell, along with the unique hybrid of bluegrass and comedy with which Martin and the Steep Canyon Rangers have been delighting audiences at their sold-out, critically acclaimed shows. Martin is currently in the fifth decade of a uniquely accomplished career in which he’s excelled as a comedian, actor, author / playwright, and Grammy-winning bluegrass banjoist and composer. He has also hosted the Academy Awards and been accorded a Kennedy Center Honor. Martin’s fellow Texas native Edie Brickell, burst onto the national scene in the late 1980s
fronting the New Bohemians, and she has since carved out an iconoclastic solo career that’s solidified her reputation as a compelling singer and a songwriter of rare insight. Although the new musical partners have built widely-loved individual bodies of work, their inaugural album as a duo is a substantial departure and a creative milestone for both. “Love Has Come for You” offers 13 eloquently rootsy Martin / Brickell compositions that combine the former’s inventive, expressive five-string banjo playing with the latter’s heart-tugging vocals and vivid lyrics. The album is the product of a songwriting partnership. Martin invited Brickell to write lyrics for a banjo tune he’d recently created. Despite living on opposite coasts, their working relationship quickly blossomed, with the two writing separately and exchanging digital files via email. The results of the pair’s unconventional cowriting method are inspired —
combining the gentle yet feisty humanity of Brickell’s vocals with the effortless economy of Martin’s banjo work. In 2011, the Steep Canyon Rangers released its first collaborative record with Steve Martin, “Rare Bird Alert,” which debuted at number one on Billboard’s Bluegrass Chart. In 2010, the latest solo record from Steep Canyon Rangers, “Deep in the Shade,” remained in the Bluegrass Top 10 on Billboard for 18 weeks. While headlining festivals like MerleFest and Bonnaroo alongside Steve Martin, the Rangers continue perform alone as a quintet on stages such as Telluride Bluegrass Festival and “A Prairie Home Companion,” with Garrison Keillor. With smooth vocals, smart songwriting, ferocious instrumentals and jawdropping harmony, the Rangers are bringing Bluegrass to music lovers across the U.S. and around the world. The Palm Desert

READER ADVISORY
The National Trade Association we belong to has purchased the above classifieds. Determining the value of their service or product is advised by this publication. In order to avoid misunderstandings, some advertisers do not offer employment but rather supply the readers with manuals, directories and other materials designed to help their clients establish mail order selling and other businesses at home. Under NO circumstance should you send any money in advance or give the client your checking, license ID, or credit card numbers. Also beware of ads that claim to guarantee loans regardless of credit and note that if a credit repair company does business only over the phone it is illegal to request any money before delivering its service. All funds are based in US dollars. Toll free numbers may or may not reach Canada.

The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 29600 DESERT CHARM RD, DESERT HOT SPRINGS, CA 92241 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be made without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the Note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said Note(s), advances if any, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, estimated fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligations secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of this Notice of Trustee`s Sale is estimated to be $225,763.24 (Estimated), provided, however, prepayment premiums, accrued interest and advances will increase this figure prior to sale. Beneficiary`s bid at said sale may include all or part of said amount. In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept a cashier`s check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the California Financial Code and authorized to do business in California, or other such funds as may be acceptable to the Trustee. In the event tender other than cash is accepted, the Trustee may withhold the issuance of the Trustee`s Deed Upon Sale until funds become available to the payee or endorsee as a matter of right. The property offered for sale excludes all funds held on account by the property receiver, if applicable. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder`s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. Notice to Potential Bidders If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a Trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a Trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same Lender may hold more than one mortgage or Deed of Trust on the property. Notice to Property Owner The sale date shown on this Notice of Sale may be postponed one or more times by the Mortgagee, Beneficiary, Trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about Trustee Sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call Priority Posting and Publishing at 714573-1965 for information regarding the Trustee’s Sale or visit the Internet Web site address on the previous page for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, CA08000637-13-1. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

Google Launches New Company to Solve the Problem of Death
By Art Kunkin (Mr. Life Extension) The cover story of the September 30, 2013 issue of Time Magazine reports that Google, Inc, the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest internet search company, is establishing a new company called Calico to focus on health problems due to aging. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These issues affect us all -from the decreased mobility and mental agility that comes with age, to life-threatening diseases that exact a terrible physical and emotional toll on individuals and families,â&#x20AC;? said Google Chief Executive Larry Page. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And while this is clearly a long term bet, we believe we can make good progress within reasonable time scales with the right goals and the right people.â&#x20AC;? Google, which makes more than 90 percent of its revenue from advertising, has
Health issues are an area of personal interest for Google cofounders Page and Sergey Brin. In May, Page announced that he had a rare nerve disease that limited the movement of his vocal cords and briefly sidelined him from public speaking. He also said he had been diagnosed with Hashimotoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disease, a thyroid inflammatory condition. Brin has stated that he has a higherthan-average chance of being diagnosed with Parkinsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s since his mother had that disease. Art Levinson, former chief executive of Genentech will be Calicoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chief executive and a founding investor. Levinson is also chairman of Apple and will remain in that position, leading to a statement of support from Apple Chief Executive Tim Cook. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For too many of our friends and family, life has been cut short or the quality of their life is too often lacking,â&#x20AC;? Cook said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Art is one of the crazy ones who thinks it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to be this way. There is no one better suited to lead this mission and I am excited to see the results.â&#x20AC;? Google is keeping its exact plans for Calico secret for the time being. However, it is likely to use its data-processing strength to shed new light on age-related maladies. Page asks â&#x20AC;&#x153;Are people really focused on the right things? One of the things I thought was amazing is that if you solve cancer, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d add about three years to peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s average life expectancy. We think of solving cancer as this huge thing thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll totally change the world. But when you really take a step back and look at it, yeah, there are many, many tragic cases of cancer and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very, very sad, but in the aggregate thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not as big an advance as you might think.â&#x20AC;?
invested in numerous so-called moonshots since co-founder Page reassumed the role of CEO in 2011. The company is working on self-driving cars, wearable computers and air balloons that beam wireless Internet access to remote regions of the world. The name Calico is short-hand for California Life Company. Page acknowledged in his post that Calico appeared to diverge from â&#x20AC;&#x153;what Google does todayâ&#x20AC;Ś Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be surprised if we invest in projects that seem strange or speculative compared with our existing Internet businessesâ&#x20AC;Ś And please remember that new investments like this are very small by comparison to our core business.â&#x20AC;? Google generated $50 billion in revenue last year Art Kunkin is the 85-year and has a cash reserve of $54 young journalist who founded the billion. alternative weekly newspaper,

Longhorns Can’t Gore the Chiefs
Desert Chiefs and Founder / CEO of the charitable organization Rosie’s Kids (rosieskids.com). An NFL team is exactly what the Desert Chiefs looked like on By Dan Marinelli Saturday against the California PERRIS – “I’m trying to run Longhorns this team like an NFL team,” said Lead by running back Rosie Welmas, owner of the Komani Harper and quarterback
sports
Brent Rausch, the Desert Chiefs balanced a steady, run-and-pass offense, creating a 33-0 first-half deficit for the Longhorns. Harper set the tone of the game from the get-go. On the Desert Chiefs’ first possession from the 50-yard line, Harper ran the ball 35 yards to the
Longhorns’ 15-yard line. Then, on first and goal, Harper proceeded to carry the ball, easily, into the end zone for the touchdown. Rausch, the former University of Hawaii quarterback, made his presence known early, too. Rausch had 100-plus yards and two touchdown passes to receivers Ricky Festa and Gaston Bailey in the first half alone. Later in the third quarter, Harper, also the team’s punt returner, returned a punt 65 yards for the touchdown. Harper had over 200 all-purpose yards (offense and special teams) and two touchdowns against the Longhorns. Despite the Chiefs’ ability to score at will against the Longhorns, it was the Desert Chiefs’ defense that created the largest point differential between the two teams. The Desert Chiefs defense forced a safety, six punts, a fumble and three interceptions.
Defensive back Solwyn Nelson almost ran an interception back for a touchdown, but carelessly, he fumbled at the Longhorn’s 3-yard line, resulting in a touchback. Later in the second quarter, defensive back Adrian Guzman did take an interception 25 yards for the touchdown. And at the start of the fourth quarter, safety Alfredo Melendez had a 50-yard interception return to the Longhorn 5-yard line. In total, the Desert Chiefs put up, a ridiculous, 60 points against the California Longhorns. The Desert Chiefs improved to 6-0 in the Pacific Coast Football Conference and are in second place. Next Saturday, the Desert Chiefs look to continue their winning streak against the L.A. Ravens. The Desert Chiefs are playing a home game at Shadow Hills High School, Indio. The game starts at 7 p.m.

Arabs Stay Hot Against Bulldogs
By Dan Marinelli THERMAL – The parade, fireworks and festivities at Coachella Valley High School’s Homecoming added an extra-special feeling last Friday night, but
w h a t homecoming victory. made After a three-game road trip, t h e the Coachella Valley Arabs (0-0 Arabs’ in the Desert Valley League, 3-1 overall) came home to face the Calexico Bulldogs (0-0 in the Imperial Valley League, 3-2 overall) in front of a hyped crowd of, at least, 1000 loyal fans. With all three of Calexico’s wins coming at home, Bulldogs Head Coach Allen Heck knew that if his team didn’t get the lead early, it would be hard to come from behind in such a raucous environment. The Bulldogs defense was keeping their end of the bargain by not relinquishing any sort of a lead, but their offense was struggling head to find its form. The coach, Arabs managed Scott Fisher, to prevent the really want Bulldogs from to say “Home scoring early, sweet home” forcing t h re e was his f u m b l e s a n d recovering two of them. “We teach our kids to swarm the football,” said Coach Fisher. “To not just go for the tackle, but try and strip the football. Jose Jiminez gets ready for Calexico. (Photo by Dan Marinelli) That’s exactly what we did.”
DEDICATED TO HIGHER STANDARDS - RE-ELECT MAYOR YVONNE PARKS, COUNCIL MEMBER SCOTT MATAS & COUNCIL MEMBER JAN PYE
With 9:10 remaining in the first half, Bulldogs junior running back / kick returner Antonio Valdez, ran back an Arab punt 48-yards for a touchdown. The Bulldogs finally had their lead. However, it would be their last lead of the game. With only a minute and a half having gone by since the Bulldogs had scored, the Arabs moved the ball 76 yards in only two plays. The drive was completed when senior quarterback Ricky Perez threw a 39-yard completion to senior wide receiver Horacio Solis. However, the extra point was missed, leaving the Arabs down one point. The Arabs scored one more time before the first-half; the lead, and likely the game, would be theirs. The highlight of the drive came when Arabs senior running back Izac Ocon took the ball 40 yards into the Bulldogs red zone. Ultimately, Ocon ran the ball six more yards into the end zone for the touchdown. Coach Fisher elected to go for the two-point conversion to try and take a whole-touchdown lead. Ocon, as if he was not tiredenough already, was then called upon to convert the two-point play — and did so with ease. The Arabs were now up 14-7 and would never look back. What plagued the Bulldogs
the rest of the game was the lack of quarterback protection and the numerous amount of wildly thrown passes. The only chance the Bulldogs had at scoring the rest of the game was early in the third quarter, when junior running back Earnesto Gonzalez dropped a wide-open 40-yard touchdown pass. For the Arabs, the fourth quarter was the most enjoyable quarter of the game. The defense had three interceptions, one of which was a returned 31 yards for a touchdown by junior linebacker Noah Torres that put the nail in the coffin. “We adjusted our defense plenty of times — we knew what they were going to do,” said Coach Fisher. “Coach Seymore, our defensive coordinator, knew we had to shut down their run. And he was recognizing the formations they were coming out with based on his film study from Calexico’s previous games.” Worth noting, Torres returned another interception for a touchdown later in the fourth quarter but due to an Arab penalty, the interception and touchdown would be reversed. The Coachella Valley Arabs ended up winning 21-7 behind their solid defense and errorless play. They go back on the road to face Banning this Friday at 7 p.m.
