Homemade Halloween Treats

By Desert Star Staff Halloween calls for candies and treats of all kinds as trick-or-treaters roam neighborhoods, but don’t forget to stock your own snack supply with homemade goodies.

Skip the store-bought sweets this year and instead opt for ideas like these that can be whipped up in the comfort of your own kitchen.

Party Mix: As one of the easiest recipes you could imagine, a Halloweenthemed party mix simply calls for your favorite snack-type foods tossed together in a group-sized bowl or individual containers. You can try just about anything from candy corns and miniature chocolates to pretzels, popcorn and more.

Spooky Cupcakes: Kidfriendly treats are the name of the game when it comes to Halloween, and there’s almost

no better way to get children involved in the kitchen than with some personalized decorations.

Bake your preferred cupcakes – chocolate or vanilla – then call on the kiddos to use icing and toppings for creepy custom creations.

Pumpkin Pie: There’s nothing wrong with going with a classic. While it may not scream All Hallows’ Eve, pumpkin is the flavor of the season, which makes pumpkin pie a traditional taste this time of year. Because most versions call for a fairly small number of ingredients, it’s a simple way to bake a desirable dessert. Plus, you can easily give pumpkin pie some Photo courtesy of Getty Images Halloween flair using whipped cream to “draw” a spooky lay out your favorite dough Jack-o-lantern-like face. and use seasonal cookie cutters – think Frankenstein, Creepy Cookies: Whether witches, ghosts, spiders and your family craves chocolate more – for a frightful bite. chip or prefers the sweetness of sugar cookies, you can Caramel-Dipped Apples:

on the free flow of trade between the three countries.

“So, for our workforce – where one out of six vehicles produced in the United States are exported outside the U.S. – having a competitive USMCA agreement ratified and certified, so we can plan the business, is very important to our manufacturing footprint and to our employees,” said Hinrichs.

Ford alone exports 380,000 American-made vehicles each year. It is estimated that the USMCA will result in $34 billion in new investments for the auto industry, and could create 76,000 new automotive jobs over five years.

The deal raises the minimum wage and creates and protects manufacturing jobs by offering companies incentives for engineering and production in the United States. And Hinrichs sees that as good news for the roughly 46,000 workers at

Ford’s 14 manufacturing plants in Michigan.

“We support the USMCA because it’s good for the U.S. auto industry, our suppliers that fuel our success, and the workers and families that depend on a strong Ford in this country,” he said.

Hinrichs also believes the agreement will modernize policies to match the ways in which auto manufacturing, supply chains and the workforce have evolved in the 25 years since NAFTA. “Let’s get this planned, let’s get it approved,” he urged, “so we can run our business, plan for the future and continue to invest in America.”

Mexico has already ratified the agreement. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is calling on lawmakers to approve the deal by the end of November, with hopes that Canada will ratify it around the same time.

It is the Season to Button Down the Hatch!

By Desert Star Staff It’s Halloween season!

This is the time for ghosts, witches, and trick or treating.

What does Halloween have to do with your IRA? You might be surprised to hear that your IRA may be haunted. How can that be? Believe it or not, the actions you take or don’t take can haunt your beneficiaries for years down the road.

Many IRA owners think that naming their estate as their IRA beneficiary is an excellent way to go. They feel that they have spent time and money consulting with an attorney to draft the perfect will. All the work has been done. Why not just name their estate as their

IRA beneficiary? This would be a wrong move! It can result in scary stuff that can haunt your IRA beneficiaries.

If you name your estate as the beneficiary on your IRA beneficiary designation form, your beneficiaries will not be able to stretch distributions over their own life expectancy.

They may even have to take a total distribution of the IRA assets in five years. That could be a severe tax hit. There is no way to fix this after your death. To have the maximum stretch options possible, living people or a qualified trust must be named on the beneficiary designation form.

If you do not name a beneficiary on your IRA or

you forget to update the beneficiary form after a significant life event, your IRA may also be haunted. Your inaction could result in a scary tax situation for your heirs. If you do not bother to name a beneficiary, generally, the default beneficiary will apply, and that is often the estate, and as we explained is not a good outcome. You could also end up in the same Place if you do not update your beneficiary form after the death of a beneficiary. Failure to name a new beneficiary could result in all the funds going to your estate and the stretch being lost forever.

Presidential Resume

By Kelly G. Richardson, Esq., CCAL The office of HOA president is important but sometimes misunderstood. In most associations, presidents are selected by board vote (in an open meeting). Here are some ideas as to what to look for in the HOA’s next president.

First, a few words on what is not required – a legal, accounting, or executive background. The highest educated or most successful person may not be the best president, since the president is not expected to be an expert in HOA law or accounting – the HOA has experts for that. A successful CEO of a for-profit company could be a terrible president if they are unable to adopt the very different leadership style of the nonprofit corporation.

Look for these qualities in a prospective president:

gracefully accept a vote of the board which goes against the nominee?

Gets along with people.

Is the nominee a positive person and an encourager?

Consensus builder. Can the nominee work to build a consensus on the board regarding major issues?

ATTITUDE “Boss” or servant leader? Does the nominee have the attitude of a forprofit corporation in which the president is normally the decision-maker, or that of the nonprofit corporate president in which the board is the decision-maker?

Doesn’t need recognition.

The best nominees look at leadership as service to their neighbors, not an achievement to be defended. Pick someone who is secure in themselves, and not threatened by criticism or disagreement.

such as divorce or marriage can result in an unintended person getting your IRA funds. To many people, there is no scarier story than an ex-spouse unintentionally ending up with all the retirement assets just because a form was not updated.

If these possibilities are spooking you, there is a solution. Your IRA does not have to be haunted. You can call the Ghostbusters right now. Simply contact your IRA custodian and check on your IRA beneficiary form.

And since you are making sure, there are no scary times ahead. Review your life insurance and annuities.

Who is your beneficiary? Is it

THE ROLE Do-it-yourself? A president’s role is not to do all the HOA’s work for 40 hours a week - the manager, service providers, and employees perform that work.

Know it all? The nominee should not feel that they know everything. A good president recognizes that other directors, residents, and service providers may also have important knowledge and information that benefits the HOA, which the president may not know.

HANDLING MEETINGS Listener or speaker? Is the nominee a good listener, or is always the person talking? A president should encourage all directors to contribute to the meeting.

Parliamentary procedure.

A president normally chairs the meetings, and as such should have at least an elementary understanding of parliamentary procedure to help keep meetings orderly.

Balance. They must handle

the right person? Make any changes needed now. Your beneficiaries will be thanking you for sparing them from IRA horror stories later.

the balance well, encouraging directors to speak while also moving the agenda along.

AGENDA No preconceived agenda.

Avoid the nominee who came to the board with “campaign promises.” The president should be committed to the HOA’s best interests, not their own agenda.

No single person will completely fulfill all these criteria – but in choosing the president, try to get as close as possible. If you the reader are currently a president, consider aspiring to these qualities!

BACKGROUND Experience. A track record of prior service to nonprofit organizations, including prior HOAs, may show an understanding of the different style of nonprofit leadership.

Past commitment. Has the nominee successfully headed committees, or served on the board for a few years?

Review. Have they read the governing documents and the Open Meeting Act? Understands. Do they understand the Business Judgment Rule?

INTERPERSONAL SKILLS Working with others. Is the nominee a team player or someone who “goes it alone”? HOAs are governed by boards and a successful must be able to cooperate with board colleagues.

Advocates Tout New NV Law Protecting Victims of Car Crashes

only to find out that the person who caused the accident only has a $25,000 liability policy, which is the state minimum.

“You don’t want to run up a lot of additional medical expenses that are not going to be covered by the other side’s insurance,” said Galloway. “If you have health insurance, that’s not usually an issue. But there’s lots of people who don’t have health insurance, so they’re relying on the ‘other side’ to pay for their medical expenses.”

Previously, plaintiffs would take a case all the way to trial, only to find out that Federal statistics show that in 2017, more than 4.5 million Americans involved in car crashes sustained the defendant’s insurance policy was worth very little. injuries that needed medical attention.

A second section of the bill gives a ‘do-over’ to people who accept a ‘low-ball’ offer from an insurance company before checking with an attorney.

Galloway said people sometimes underestimate how fast their medical bills will add up.

“Unfortunately, people don’t understand how the emergency room works – where you get a hospital bill, a radiology bill, and E.R. physician bill,” he explained.

“And they think maybe they have a $500 hospital bill, not realizing there are these other bills, and they settle, on the cheap – and then, they’re stuck.”

Under the new law, victims who agree to a settlement within 30 days of the accident and then change their minds now have 60 days to get an attorney, who may be able to negotiate a better deal.

Biden family was PAID OFF, pure and simple!’ - Trump

By Desert Star Staff Attacking the Bidens, the Democrats and the “fake news” media in one powerful swipe, President Donald Trump has fired a volley of trademark Sunday tweets, calling Joe and Hunter Biden’s involvement in Ukraine “inexcusable.”

“It is INCREDIBLE to watch and read the Fake News and how they pull out all stops to protect Sleepy Joe Biden and his thrown out of the Military son, Hunter,” Trump started out, before launching into a Twitterstorm of seemingly damning facts about the Bidens, Ukraine and China.

He brought up Hunter’s “$100,000 a month (Plus,Plus)” income from the Ukrainian gas company Burisma “even though he had no experience in energy,” while also accusing the Bidens of separately getting “1.5 Billion Dollars from China

despite no experience and for no apparent reason.”

“There is NO WAY these can be legitimate transactions?”

Trump said, adding that he had an “OBLIGATION” to look at the “probable” corruption behind those schemes.

Joe Biden has vehemently denied that any of the posts held by his son were in any way illegal, while also claiming they did not discuss his business in Ukraine while he served as the vice president. This did not convince Trump in the slightest.

“The Biden family was PAID OFF, pure and simple! The fake news must stop making excuses for something that is totally inexcusable. Sleepy Joe said he never spoke to the Ukrainian company, and then the picture came out where he was playing golf with the company boss and Hunter,” he said in a separate

tweet, before dismissing his likely 2020 election rival as “1% Joe Biden,” and even advising him to “hang it up.”

Even though it was lengthy and vicious, Trump’s latest thrust at the Bidens pales in comparison to the sheer scale of Democratic efforts trying to “impeach the 45th.” The latest such attempt involves accusing Trump of meddling in Ukraine’s affairs (a shocking feat certainly never attempted by the White House before) – all in an effort to, allegedly, pressure Kiev into digging up dirt on his opponent.

While Trump did ask the Ukrainian president to cooperate with AG William Barr while looking into the Biden’s suspicious dealings, he strongly denies there was any “quid pro quo” or pressure involved.

Meanwhile, a second anonymous “whistleblower”

emerged on Sunday with a supposedly damning account of Trump’s Ukraine affair, and this time instead of hearsay he’s rumored to have “firsthand knowledge” of the matter. Whether it provides

actual material for launching the impeachment procedure the Democrats dream of, or if the ‘Ukrainegate’ flops like the infamous ‘Russiagate’ has, remains to be seen.

New, Re-Imagined Revival of The Broadway Musical Ballroom to Premier at CVRep!

Continued from Page 1

“My goal is to put the heart of BALLROOM into the musical,” says Director, Ron Celona. “To accomplish this, we’ve made some major changes to the original 1978 Broadway version.

The biggest change is the script, which now mirrors the 1975 Queen of the Stardust Ballroom teleplay, except for its more positive ending.

The big musical numbers brilliantly choreographed by Michael Bennett in the original Broadway production were wonderful, but we’re focusing on story and character.

Loudon. The musical tells the story of aging, lonely widow, Bea Asher, and her romantic involvement with Alfred Rossi, a mail carrier she meets at the local ballroom dance hall.

Deadline Looms for SD Cannabis Measures to Make 2020 Ballot

Possession of even a small amount of marijuana in South Dakota carries a potential penalty of a year in jail and a $2,000 fine. (National Conference of State Legislatures)

By Desert Star Staff SIOUX FALLS, S.D. – A group that advocates legalizing medical marijuana in South Dakota has until

October 31 to collect enough signatures for the measure to appear on the 2020 ballot.

Melissa Mentele is leading the effort as director of the

group New Approach South Dakota, and says the state has some of the strictest cannabis laws in the nation. Mentele believes state residents should

have the ability to manage their own health without relying on pharmaceuticals.

“People are ready,” says Mentele. “Ready to have an alternative to opioids. We are seeing a ton of opioid deaths just in this last year in our state, and people are really starting to understand that you can’t live on pain meds for the rest of your life.”

Another advocacy group is collecting signatures for an initiative that would go beyond legalization of ‘medical’ marijuana, and amend the state’s constitution to legalize both marijuana and hemp.

The governor has said she believes legalization of marijuana in other states will end badly, and vetoed a bill earlier this year that would have allowed farmers to grow hemp for industrial purposes.

This is the third time

Governor Signs Bill to Bring Public Banking to CA

By Desert Star Staff SACRAMENTO, Calif. – California may have a new type of bank by next year – the result of a bill signed yesterday by Gov. Gavin Newsom that sets up rules for the creation of public banks.

The new financial institutions would be owned by and would primarily serve public agencies – and unlike private banks, they’ll be www.desertstarweekly.com

required to put the public good over profits. Debbie Notkin, a member of the California Public Banking Alliance, predicts the agencies will save a ton of money.

“Local public banks return the money that cities and counties now pay in fees and interest back to those cities and counties as bank profits,” says Notkin.

The only public bank

in the U.S. right now is the Bank of North Dakota, which has been around for about a century and makes about 18% in profits each year.

Wall Street banks have criticized California’s legislation, saying banking is too complex to be entrusted to government. However, Notkin notes all five of the biggest Wall Street banks have felony charges on October 9, 2019

She’s also convinced that public banks will be more responsive to local and regional concerns.

“We’ll be in a position to build affordable housing at reasonable rates, to do wildfire mitigation,” says Notkin. “All the things that California really needs, our

Mentele has tried to get medical marijuana on the ballot. She says her group only needs 17,000 signatures but is trying to collect 30,000 after having thousands of signatures invalidated in previous attempts.

“I started working in cannabis six years ago after an injury that left me disabled,” says Mentele. “And my first legislative session was basically, ‘Well you’re just a pothead – you just want to smoke marijuana.’ And I’m like, ‘No, actually I need a lotion that works really well at helping my nerve pain.’”

A recent study by the FBI shows about 14% of South Dakota’s more than 63,000 arrests in 2017 were for drug offenses. That made the state the nation’s front-runner for the number of drug arrests in 2017 based on population.

The first public bank may spring from Alameda County and a coalition of agencies in the East Bay – perhaps by the end of 2020.

Group Fears More Insulin Rationing If MN Lawmakers Don’t Act

By Desert Star Staff ST. PAUL, Minn. – Talks continue at the Minnesota Capitol on how to get insulin into the hands of those who need but can’t afford it.

The average insulin price has risen 55% since 2014, according to research from GoodRX. Minnesota lawmakers are trying to address the price hikes, but the GOPled Senate and the DFL-led House have different views on the best approach.

For the Minnesota Chapter of T1 International, a group that advocates for people with Type 1 diabetes, Kim Munson is policy and legislative director. Munson warned that, if lawmakers fail to agree and take a vote in special session, waiting until the regular session next spring could be devastating.

“First off, we will know more people will be rationing their insulin,” she said. “My

biggest fear would be that we will see another death, like we did over the summer with Jesy Radcliffe, a boy who died over the summer – when just a month before, the session ended and a bill did not pass.”

She was referring to 21-year-old Jesy SchererRadcliffe, a Minnesotan who lost his life in July. His family attributed the death to his rationing of insulin.

Minnesota GOP leaders are pushing a proposal that calls on drug makers to provide free insulin supplies for up to a year for those who meet income requirements. DFL lawmakers want to allow emergency supplies without a waiting period to determine eligibility.

While policymakers wrangle with these options, Munson pointed out that diabetics are trying to let the public know how serious a health crisis this has become.

She credits the steady price

Advocates for diabetics worry that the skyrocketing cost of insulin is forcing people to ration their supplies. (Adobe Stock) increases in recent years for prompting them to speak up.

“There’s now this community where, when we hear of a death, we are asking questions,” Munson explained, “whereas maybe

before, we didn’t know to even ask those questions.”

The situation has also caught the attention of federal lawmakers. Both parties in Congress have vowed to bring down costs, and committee

hearings last spring put the spotlight on pharmaceutical companies. Legislation has been introduced in both the House and Senate, but the future of those bills is uncertain.

Tularosa Basin Downwinders Consortium, said those downwind from New Mexico’s Trinity site were excluded from the legislation.

“It has afforded compensation and health-care coverage to other downwinders and some uranium miners, and the people of New Mexico – the downwinders of New Mexico – deserve not one dime more, not one dime less,” Cordova said.

The government has paid out more than $2 billion in claims since 1990.

New Mexico’s senators and House representative have introduced legislation in Congress to amend the legislation to include downwinders of the Trinity site.

Today’s hearing at Southwestern Indian Polytechnic Institute is open to the public.

From 1945 to 1962, the federal government conducted nearly 200 atomic bomb

development tests. The current legislation compensates residents of Colorado, Idaho, Nevada and Utah who were exposed to radiation from the Nevada Nuclear Test Site.

If the Compensation Act is amended, Cordova said many victims in New Mexico and the state’s Indian Country, including uranium workers who are living with lung and respiratory diseases, would be included.

“Why are we treated differently? Why are we completely not included?” she asked. “It’s a very wellkept secret that people were harmed and that people have been dying for 74 years now as a result of this.”

In addition to Cordova, Jonathan Nez, president of the Navajo Nation, also will testify at the hearing.

The current legislation is slated to end on July 9, 2022, while the proposed amendment would extend the compensation fund until 2045.

Trump defender Graham calls decision to withdraw from Syria ‘DISASTER in the making’

By Desert Star Staff Senator Lindsey Graham, who is usually one of President Donald Trump’s most vocal supporters, has lashed out at his decision to withdraw US troops from northeastern Syria ahead of an imminent incursion by Turkey.

The move, Graham said, will result in a return of the terrorist group Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS), make the Kurds ally with the Syrian government, destroy Turkey’s relationship with the US Congress, and leave a stain

on US honor, the senator argued. He said he would file a motion in the Senate seeking a reversal of the decision.

Trump said the withdrawal of troops from Syria was long overdue and justified abandoning the Kurds to a likely Turkish onslaught by saying the US paid “massive amounts of money and equipment” to the Kurdish militias to fight against IS. Quite a few critics of President Trump lashed out at what they call a betrayal of the Kurdish militias and

submission to the wishes of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Ankara considers Syrian Kurds to be terrorists and for years has criticized the US for supporting them.

US politicians with quite differing views found themselves in the same camp, united in condemnation of Trump’s move. The president’s 2016 rival, Hillary Clinton, and his former envoy to the UN, Nikki Haley, blasted the US leader for siding with Turkey against the Kurds.

Groups Sue Feds Over Management of Glen Canyon Dam

By Desert Star Staff PAGE, Ariz. – A trio of conservation groups is suing the federal government to force it to use climate science in its management of Glen Canyon Dam and the upper Colorado River.

In the suit, the groups are asking a federal judge to invalidate a 2016 Bureau of Reclamation environmental study, and order a new analysis using data developed by climate scientists to predict future flows in the upper Colorado River.

Gary Wockner, executive director of the group Save the Colorado, alleges the government used flawed information to develop the plan.

“We followed this process throughout the drought contingency plan over the last few years, and they still have refused to accept the climate science and the impacts that climate change is going to have on the river,” says Wokner.

The Glen Canyon Dam

is in northern Arizona, just south of the Utah border.

The groups in the suit include Save the Colorado, the Center for Biological Diversity and Living Rivers.

They say the 20-year plan doesn’t present a full range of alternatives based on climaterelated impacts to the river.

The Bureau of Reclamation declined to comment on the suit.

Wockner says conservation groups followed each step as the plan’s Environmental Impact Statement was created, to see if the government was following guidelines set out in the National Environmental Policy Act. “The EIS process has a draft and a final, and a Record of Decision,” says Wockner.

“And during the draft we said, ‘Hey, you’re not using climate science.’ They said, ‘We don’t have to.’ In the final, we said, ‘Hey, you’re not using climate science.’ They said, ‘We don’t have to.’ In the Record of Decision, they responded

The Glen Canyon Dam towers 710 feet above the original Colorado River channel, producing hydroelectric power and impounding Lake Powell as a water storage reservoir. (Jason/Adobe Stock) once again to our comments and said, ‘We don’t have to.’”

Wockner says the plan doesn’t consider projections that show falling river flows could eventually render the Glen Canyon Dam inoperable.

“The amount of water

that’s decreased in the river could be dramatic,” says Wockner. “And so, the agencies and the states have to take this seriously. Federal law requires that they do, and the federal government failed to comply with that law when

they created this measure.”

Wockner believes any plan for the dam needs to consider decommissioning it, either by removing the dam or by modifying it to let the river flow through and drain Lake Powell.

“We’re warming at about four times the global ocean average,” Pershing said. “And so, that means we’re kind of getting a sneak preview of some of the conditions that we expect later in this century that other ecosystems are going to see down the line.”

Pershing said scientists studying the Gulf of Maine have an opportunity to come up with solutions to mitigate the effects of warming oceans, and then export those ideas to other regions that will likely be facing them in the next few decades.

He added the warming Gulf is affecting a rice-grain-sized zooplankton known as calanus finmarchicusthat’s at the center of the marine food web.

“Calanus declining is a really good sign that we’re seeing an ecosystem that’s switching from one that’s more subarctic and subpolar into

an ecosystem that’s more temperate,” Pershing said.

Lobster fisheries in the Gulf of Maine are some of the most valuable in the United States. Pershing said in recent years, the Gulf’s warming has swelled the lobster population and increased catches. But he said there’s a catch.

“It’s contributed to the decline of lobsters and essentially the collapse of the fisheries in Southern New England,” he said.

“And so, we’re really looking towards the future to say, ‘At what point are we going to hit perhaps a tipping point and start to see catches decline here in Maine?’”

According to the Maine Department of Marine Resources, fishermen brought in almost a half-billion dollars in lobster landings in 2018.

Gulf of Maine Warming is “Sneak Preview” of Future Global Climate Conditions

By Desert Star Staff PORTLAND, Maine — As much of the East Coast experiences unseasonably warm fall temperatures, scientists studying the

Gulf of Maine point to its rapid warming as a “sneak preview” of what climate change might mean for other parts of the globe.

the Gulf of Maine Research Institute Andrew Pershing said a few years ago, he and colleagues determined the Gulf was heating up faster than 99% of the world’s oceans.

ID Submits ‘One-Strike’ Medicaid Work Requirement for Feds’ Approval

By Desert Star Staff BOISE, Idaho — The public comment period is open on Idaho’s application to the federal government to add work reporting requirements to its expanded Medicaid program.

State lawmakers passed a bill this year requiring that recipients age 19-59 work at least 20 hours a week to maintain Medicaid eligibility. But the waiver must first be approved by the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services. www.desertstarweekly.com

Liz Woodruff is a coordinator with Close the Gap Idaho, a network of more than 300 health-care and service organizations. She called the work benchmarks “punitive red tape” that would mean fewer Idahoans have health coverage.

“Idaho would be one of the most restrictive programs in the country,” Woodruff said. “It’s a ‘one-strike-you’re-out’ policy – so you miss your reporting for one month, you miss turning in your paperwork, and you lose your health coverage.”

There are exemptions to the proposal, including parents of children under 18, people receiving disability insurance and caretakers. Supporters of the waiver are convinced it would encourage selfreliance among recipients.

The public comment period ends November 2.

Work requirements were struck down by federal judges in Arkansas, Kentucky and New Hampshire, and Woodruff said she expects Idaho’s provision will also go to court if approved. She said the October 9, 2019

Idaho Department of Health and Welfare reviewed more than 700 pages of comments on the proposal – many from detractors – in just four days.

“We were disappointed that there were technical points made about how the work requirements would be administered, the costs that might be incurred,” she said.

“The fact that Idaho is a large rural state, that would make it complicated for people to report. And, while they had a section in their new application that tried to ease

our concerns over that, there were no actual changes made to the application itself.”

The new application acknowledges that an estimated 16,000 Idahoans would be affected by the requirements. A federal decision on the proposal could take months or years.

Woodruff noted Medicaid expansion is going ahead as planned, with open enrollment starting Nov. 1 for coverage beginning in 2020.

Your specific and particular skills are a deeply needed resource. When you share them, they nurture, nourish and we are grateful.

LEO A tradition, perhaps religious and including the emotional and intellectual, becomes important. It summons you to a discipline, structure and ritual that brings order and stability to your life.

Without warning, she then planted a playful kiss on the Argentine challenger, who certainly wasn’t in the mood for games, and responded by slapping the hometown fighter across the face, sparking a fracas.

The incident led spectators to expect the extra heat would transfer into the ring and add extra incentive for both to knock the other out. As it turned out, the two fought to a close 10-round split decision in favor of Brodnicka, giving her a points win defence of her title.

After the fight, Polish sports outlet Sportowefakty were less than impressed with the action, and reported that the pre-fight smacker was “more entertaining” than any smack delivered in the ring.

“Although female boxing matches don’t usually impress, this weigh in may whet your

appetite,” the article read.

“Ewa Brodnicka kissed Edith Soledad Matthysse, and the Argentine smacked her in the face with an open palm.

On Thursday she boiled over, but it wasn’t as entertaining in the ring on Friday.”

In response, Brodnicka blasted back at the site and what she saw as discrimination, tagging the piece in an Instagram story with the caption, “Sexist article. Although usually fights don’t impress you???”

In a separate article, the site reported that Brodnicka’s fight “didn’t look very interesting” and unfavorably compared the bout to a seemingly more exciting matchup between two male boxers on the card, which ended in a second round TKO. Brodnicka is nevertheless one of the country’s most famous and most recognizable boxers, and often slips into daring outfits for pre-fight events to crank up interest.

“That’s a question for Playboy. I used to think about it and I would probably even be happy with such a proposal, but now I do not care about it. If there was a proposal, then I would consider it,” she said back then, in an article also by SportoweFakty.

The frosty realtionship between Brodnicka and Matthysse showed no sign of thawing post-fight, with Mathysse flipping the middle finger at Brodnicka in a show of disgust at the split decision result.

One judge scored the fight for the visitor, and Matthysse seemed to believe Brodnicka had benefited from home advantage.

Free Medical Clinic Receives $25,000 for Upgrades

By Desert Star Staff Indio, Calif., – The Coachella Valley’s only free medical and dental clinic was awarded a $25,000 Coachella Valley Spotlight grant from the H.N. and Frances C. Berger Foundation. Coachella Valley Volunteers in Medicine (CVVIM) will use the funds for technology upgrades as well as facilities maintenance.

“People need healthcare year-round, and for those who are uninsured and underinsured CVVIM is a reliable medical facility that provides care regardless if someone can pay,” said Doug Morin, CVVIM Executive Director. “These funds will help our clinic run more efficiently.

We operate primarily through the generosity of volunteer medical professionals, therefore, how the facility runs and how our technology functions are extremely important to serving the needs of clients.”

Fundamental to the Volunteers in Medicine model, which has 86 clinics in its nationwide alliance, is the use of volunteers. The Coachella Valley clinic utilizes more than 230 volunteers including physicians,

dentists, nurse practitioners, nurses, and administrative support. To date, volunteers have logged more than 150,000 hours Indio clinic.

The value of this donated time exceeds $2 million.

“It is inspiring to see these professionals volunteer their time to care for people who might not otherwise get the medical help they need,” said Catharine Reed, Senior Program Officer for the H.N. and Frances C. Berger Foundation.

CVVIM was founded

by Dr. Ron Hare, a retired physician, local businessman and philanthropist who saw the need for free and low-cost care. In 2008, a local study group verified this need, which found that many people were using emergency rooms for primary care. In 2010, CVVIM opened with the support of all three local hospitals, the City of Indio, and the County of Riverside. Two years later, the clinic moved to its permanent location, a custom-built facility, funded by Riverside County and leased to CVVIM for $1 per year.

Since opening, the clinic has delivered more than 35,000 patient visits to about 3,500

Chilling Classic with Palm Canyon Theatre’s The Crucible

By Desert Star Staff Palm Springs, Calif.- In the late 1600s, the residents of the small Puritan colony of

Salem, Massachusetts were terrorized when several girls in the village began to fall ill after a night of dancing in the

woods. Tensions rise as the townsfolk desperately search for answers. As panic sets in & evidence of witchcraft is presented, the events begin to take a violent turn. This heavy drama is coming to the Palm Canyon Theatre stage for one weekend only in October.

The Crucible was written by playwright Arthur Miller and first hit the Broadway stage in 1953, winning the Tony Award that year for Best Play.

The play went on to become a classic and is known for its fairly accurate portrayal of the terrifying Salem Witch Trials that happened in Massachusetts between 1962-1963, inspiring several

tv and film adaptations.

Palm Canyon Theatre’s production of The Crucible features a strong cast lead by Sean Timothy Brown (John Proctor), Phylicia Mason (Elizabeth Proctor) & Kayia Treash (Abigail Williams).

Supporting cast includes Mark Almy as Reverend John Hale & Luke Rainey as Reverend Samuel Perris. The Crucible is directed by Dr. William “Bill” Layne. Derik Shopinski is the costume designer; Mado Nunez is the wig designer; set & lighting design is created by JW Layne.

By Desert Star Staff COLUMBUS, Ohio -Exactly how women are faring in Ohio varies by county, according to a first-of-its-kind analysis. In its new “Status of Women,” fact-book, the Center for Community Solutions examined data from Ohio’s 88 counties on women in key areas of life - including health, economic status and educational attainment.

Treuhaft Chair of Health Planning at the center, Melissa Federman, said she sees some distinct differences in certain areas between counties.

“Looking at education attainment, women are doing well compared to men, but there are some counties that still have a hard time graduating women from high October 9, 2019

school,” Federman said. “Or looking at the gender wage ratio, there’s a range there from 50-60 cents on the dollar to 80-90 cents on the dollar.”

The highest median earned income among Ohio women is roughly $56,000 in Delaware County, followed by Warren County, at $50,487, and Geauga County, at $47,763.

Federman noted major disparities by county in the diagnosis of late-stage cervical cancer, women in STEM careers, and teen birth rates.

Federman said the data is not intended to be a scorecard or ranking of counties, but rather a tool to raise awareness of the status of Ohio women in each individual county.

“We’re really hoping that counties will look at this and

think about their policies, their resources, their leadership, and really consider what they can work on that will have the greatest impact for women and their families,” she said.

Among other key findings: Fewer than one-third of elected officials in Ohio are women, nearly 20 counties don’t have community health centers, and women of child-bearing age are the demographic most likely to live in poverty.

The decision is ostensibly all about “self-love” and “championing individuality” — but is it really just a PR stunt?

The lingerie brand, famous for its super-skinny models and a long-held commitment to selling “fantasy” rather than reality, hired Ali Tate Cutler as part of a collaboration with UK lingerie company Bluebella. VS didn’t make note of Cutler’s size, however, and fans learned about it from her own Instagram, where she called it a “great step in the right direction for bodies.”

This is exactly the kind of move that usually wins companies quick praise, but with its reputation (and bottom line) suffering due to a lack of diversity in its model and product line-ups, the decision to hire Cutler looks like a transparent attempt to grab back some of the market share it lost by steadfastly refusing to jump on the bandwagon sooner.

Just weeks ago, the company went for another PR win and hired its first transgender model, Valentina Sampaio. The sudden shift from fantasy to reality coincided with the recent departure of longtime chief marketing officer Ed Razek, who took heat last year for saying the company should not hire “transsexuals” and that customers had essentially “no interest” in seeing plus-sized models.

“We market to who we sell to, and we don’t market to the whole world,” Razek said.

Yet, with the 71-year-old Razek gone, the company seems to have decided that actually, they do want to market to the whole world — and that probably has more than a little to do with the fact that it has been losing money, rather than a sudden desire to embrace individuality and “self-love.”

The trouble for VS started as more bodypositive brands like Aerie and ThirdLove started appearing on the scene, leading its US market share to drop from 33 percent to 24 percent between 2016 and 2018.

Same-store sales were down by three percent in 2018.

It’s once hugely popular teen-focused Pink line has also been suffering, apparently due to overly sexy ads which are not loved by parents. A survey of teen spending habits and favored clothing brands last year saw VS slip out of the top 10 ranking altogether. In worse news, it found itself on the list of top 10 brands teens don’t shop from a second time.

It may not just be the brand’s objection to political correctness that has caused

DesertSTAR

its problems, however. In addition to being repeatedly condemned for failing to move with the times, VS has also been accused of letting the quality of its products slip.

Things began to look even more precarious when the infamous annual VS fashion show was cancelled this year after fewer people than ever tuned in to watch in 2018. The broadcast hit a record low of 3.3 million viewers, compared to five million the year before.

In an internal memo, VS parent L Brands CEO Les Wexner said television was no longer “the right fit” for the company.

Shareholders have started to worry, too. Activist investor Barington Capital scolded VS in a letter last March for its “outdated” and even “tone deaf” image that had failed to align with women’s “evolving

attitudes” toward beauty.

Indeed, it turns out that most women want comfortable underwear and neutral colors and designs more

than they want to imagine themselves in diamondencrusted “fantasy bras.”

The question for Victoria’s Secret now is whether

turned-off customers will be won over by its attempt to redeem itself, or will its latest efforts be seen as nothing more than sheer hypocrisy?

Parents outraged as girls ‘too embarrassed to pee’

By Desert Star Staff Parents of students of a London primary school are complaining that it has introduced gender-neutral toilets without warning and now some girls are too embarrassed to use the facilities, which may potentially harm their health.

The Deanesfield Primary School in western London teaches children aged 4-11.

When the summer break ended in September, parents of pupils were surprised to find that toilets at the school are now unisex. Some parents complained that their girls would rather endure a full bladder than use a facility they share with boys.

“Girls are being forced to hold themselves until they get home which could damage kidneys. My friend’s daughter has been holding herself all day because she’s so embarrassed. It’s not fair on the kids really,” one parent told MyLondon news website.

The situation is made

Some parents believe that if a person with a share their intimate experiences design of the toilet cubicles, however resist such policy boy’s body identifies as a girl, with such a person. which don’t have floor-toceiling walls. This makes peeking quite easy, and indeed, parents say, there have been cases of boys looking over the tops at girls on the toilet.

Mail on Sunday says the situation at Deanesfield is far from being an isolated incident.

Disney World visitors stranded for hours As sky-line ride malfunctions week after opening

By Desert Star Staff Dozens of people have been stuck inside skyline cabins at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida for hours, following an alleged

power failure that crippled the recently opened ride.

A Walt Disney World spokeswoman confirmed that there was an “unexpected downtime” on the Skyliner ride

but emphasized there were no reports of any injuries – after several photos showed multiple gondolas smashed together pretty hard.

Stranded visitors and

witnesses posted photos and videos of rescue crews with ladder trucks pulling people out one by one.

One witness told local media he and his mother

Be Prepared When Natural Disaster Strikes

By Desert Star Staff Emergency situations, especially those that pertain to natural disasters, can be difficult to recover from without proper planning, which is why it’s important to take small steps from the start to help protect your family.

With the change of seasons comes an increased risk of weather-related emergencies. This fall, Clorox has partnered with the American Red Cross to encourage everyone to be “Red Cross Ready.”

Consider these three actionable steps to get your household ready for an emergency: Prepare a kit: At minimum, you should have an emergency kit assembled with basic supplies. Depending on the circumstances, you may need to evacuate versus remaining in your home, which will affect

the amount of supplies you need. A good rule of thumb is a three-day supply if you are evacuating and a two-week supply if you’ll be in your home.

• Water: Keep one gallon per person, per day • Food: Stock up on non-perishable, easyto-prepare items.

• Disinfecting bleach: After a natural disaster, water may not be safe to drink. A few drops of an option like Clorox Disinfecting Bleach can be used to make water potable and can also help clean up mold and fungi from a buildup of excess moisture. Always pay close attention to the label to be sure you are following exact dilution instructions.

• Flashlight (and extra batteries): Having a flashlight ensures that you’re able to navigate in the dark if the electricity goes out. Always keep extra batteries on-hand

to power your flashlight and other items you may need.

• First aid kit: In cases of emergency, first-aid supplies are crucial to help keep family members as safe and healthy as possible.

Make sure to stock the kit with things like bandages, gauze and antibiotic creams.

• Multi-purpose tool: Tools with multiple functions can be used for everything from cutting wire to opening bottles.

• Sanitation and personal hygiene items: In addition to disinfecting bleach, it’s important to keep things like moist towelettes, garbage bags and plastic ties for personal cleanliness.

Make a plan: Discuss how to prepare with your family or household members and talk about the best ways you can respond to the types of emergencies that are most likely to happen where

you live, learn, work and play. Identify responsibilities for each member of your household and how you will work together as a team.

Practice as many elements of your plan as possible.

Be informed: As an emergency is unfolding, normal communication systems like phone lines may be damaged or overloaded by call volume.

Consider downloading smartphone apps such as the Red Cross Emergency App for customizable weather alerts, the “I’m safe”feature and other resources. It provides instant access to information for handling common first aid

have been stuck for several hours, while some have reportedly waited for help for more than three hours.

emergencies. You can also get trained in first aid and CPR so you’ll know what to do in case emergency help is delayed.

After a natural disaster, a safe and healthy recovery is key. Listen to local authorities and take safety precautions in case of storm aftershocks. Only use cellular or landline phones to report life-threatening conditions, keeping lines open for emergency responders.

Return to your home only when authorities advise it’s safe to do so, making sure to also have photo identification to prove residency.

Report Reveals Unique Needs of Michigan’s Unaccompanied Youths

By Desert Star Staff LANSING, Mich. — Growing up in homelessness is tough for any child, and thousands of kids in Michigan are navigating the streets without the care of a parent or guardian.

There are more than 4,800 “unaccompanied youth” in Michigan’s K-12 schools. And a new report said they are vulnerable to physical victimization, sexual exploitation and untreated mental-health issues.

Parker James is Kids Count Policy Analyst with the Michigan League for Public Policy, which released the report.

“We want to make sure kids are economically secure, that they’re healthy, that they’re safe and that they have a supportive family and community,” James said.

“And all of those things are really hard to do if you don’t have a place to stay.”

According to the findings, black, Latinx, American Indian and gender-nonconforming youth are over-represented among those under age 24

accessing homeless services.

The League has a new tool to help those who work with these youths and young adults to examine the demographics of the homeless population and determine the number of unaccompanied youths in their Intermediate School District.

James explained most homeless programs focus on families or single adults, and the report recommends communities strengthen the network of resources tailored to the unique needs of people between the ages of 12 and 24. For example, he noted, drop-in programming is a popular option.

“Get creative and use existing infrastructure to create low-stakes programming where youths can come in, get hygiene supplies, get food, take a shower, get those things that they really need,” he said. “And that can be an entry point for other services.”

Forty-four percent of youths facing homelessness have reported having stayed in jail, prison or a juvenile detention center at some point. James encourages the

The Nobel Prize in Physics 2019

By Desert Star Staff STOCKHOLM, -- The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the Nobel Prize in Physics 2019 to James Peebles, Michel Mayor and Didier Queloz. This year’s prize rewards new understanding of the universe’s structure and history, and the first discovery of a planet orbiting a solar-type star outside our solar system.

The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the Nobel Prize in Physics 2019 to James Peebles, Princeton University, USA, Michel Mayor, University of Geneva, Switzerland and Didier Queloz, University of Geneva, Switzerland and University of Cambridge, UK. “for contributions to our understanding of the evolution of the universe and Earth’s

His theoretical framework, developed since the mid-1960s, is the basis of our contemporary

ideas about the universe.

The Big Bang model describes the universe from its very first moments, almost 14 billion years ago, when it was extremely hot and dense. Since then, the universe has been expanding, becoming larger and colder. Barely 400,000 years after the Big Bang, the universe became transparent and light rays were able to travel through space. Even today, this ancient radiation is all around us and, coded into it, many of the universe’s secrets are hiding. Using his theoretical tools and calculations, James Peebles was able to interpret these traces from the infancy of the universe and discover new physical processes.

The results showed us a universe in which just five per cent of its content is known, the matter which constitutes October 9, 2019

and providing ongoing case management and support and particularly identifying stable housing,” he said.

Other recommendations to help unaccompanied youths include creating a dedicated funding source for the Michigan Housing and Community Development Fund, which James said could provide older youths with rental assistance

for permanent housing along with supportive services that promote independence.

stars, planets, trees - and us. The rest, 95 per cent, is unknown dark matter and dark energy. This is a mystery and a challenge to modern physics.

In October 1995, Michel Mayor and Didier Queloz announced the first discovery of a planet outside our solar system, an exoplanet, orbiting a solar-type star in our home galaxy, the Milky Way. At the Haute-Provence Observatory in southern France, using custommade instruments, they were able to see planet 51 Pegasi b, a gaseous ball comparable with the solar system’s biggest gas giant, Jupiter.

This discovery started a revolution in astronomy and over 4,000 exoplanets have since been found in the Milky Way. Strange new worlds are still being discovered, with an incredible wealth of sizes, forms and orbits. They challenge our preconceived ideas about planetary systems and are forcing scientists to revise their theories of the physical processes behind the origins of planets. With numerous projects planned to start searching for exoplanets, we may eventually find an answer to the eternal question of whether other life is out there.

This year’s Laureates

have transformed our ideas about the cosmos. While James Peebles’ theoretical discoveries contributed to our understanding of how the universe evolved after the Big Bang, Michel Mayor and Didier Queloz explored our cosmic neighbourhoods on the hunt for unknown planets. Their discoveries have forever changed our conceptions of the world.

Voter Rights Group Rallies to End Limbo in Battleground Florida

By Desert Star Staff TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- Voting- and civil-rights groups held a rally outside a Tallahassee federal court Monday, calling for a temporary injunction to allow former felons to continue to register to vote.

In 2018, Florida voters overwhelmingly approved a constitutional amendment allowing some 1.4 million felons to regain their voting privileges. But the state’s Republican-controlled Legislature passed a bill signed

by Gov. Ron DeSantis requiring all fines, restitution and other financial obligations to be settled in order for felons to complete their sentences.

Melba Pearson, deputy director with the American Civil Liberties Union of Florida, said their data shows only 20% of those otherwise eligible to vote under the new law would meet that requirement; about 1 million people still would be left without a vote.

“It’s a wealth-based

system,” Pearson said. “If you have outstanding fines that were converted to a civil lien because the court determined you are never going to have the ability to pay, now you’re in a situation where you’re no longer eligible to vote.

And that’s just wrong.”

Attorneys for the state argue the added stipulations were reasonable interpretations of the language in Amendment 4, claiming the Legislature also included the ability to seek waivers to some financial obligations. The hearings are expected to run through Tuesday.

Pearson said voters across party lines voted in favor of voting-rights restoration, and she sees the added requirements as a way to further voter-suppression tactics - especially when Monday was the final day for Floridians to register to vote in the November 5 election.

“Again, we still need to go back to the elemental

(Trimmel Gomes) fact that over 5 million Floridians voted for this,” she said. “And anything contrary to that is subverting the will of the people, the will of the voters, and that’s

unconstitutional and it’s wrong.”

Gov. DeSantis tried to get the federal court to delay its hearing until the Florida Supreme Court could issue its advisory opinion.

WI Bills Target Care for Family Caregivers

By Desert Star Staff MADISON, Wis. — Gov. Tony Evers’s Caregiver task force explores ways to provide better wages and benefits to the state’s caregivers. And two bills also would help caregivers get updated medical information about the people they care for as well as tax credits.

Republican Sen. Patrick Testin of Stevens Point and Rep. Ken Skowronski of Franklin have introduced the Wisconsin Credit for Caring Act, designed to shrink the financial burden on caregivers by providing a tax credit. They’ve also

put forward the Caregiver Advise, Record, Enable Act or C.A.R.E. to make sure those caring for loved ones can get accurate information such as medication management when the person they are caring for is released from a hospital or another facility.

Michael Bruhn, state public policy director with the Wisconsin chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association, said it’s time to care for those who care.

“We have 195,000 family caregivers in the state of Wisconsin that are providing 220 million total hours of unpaid care at a value

of more than $2.8 billion every year,” Bruhn said.

A similar bill providing tax credits was proposed last session but failed to pass due to its estimated cost of $173 million, according to its sponsor. The Caregiver Task force will continue its work in the meantime, with its next scheduled meeting on October 25.

Bruhn said both proposals

are widely supported, and they are similar to measures passed in other states across the nation.

“There is broad bipartisan support among the electorate for these two proposals, whether you’re talking Republicans, Democrats, independents,” he said.

According to the Alzheimer’s Association, the total lifetime cost of care for

someone with dementia was estimated at $350,174 in 2018. Caregivers Task Force co-chairman Todd Costello said since the state increased funding for personal-care services by $91 million to help people in their own homes, some of those funds can be used to increase wages and benefits for caregivers.

As Wisconsin’s population ages, a task force and several pieces of legislation have been filed to help caregivers. (Pixabay) www.desertstarweekly.com
