“Climate Emergency” Governor Newsom Signs $15 Billion Climate-Change Package

By Suzanne Potter/PNS SACRAMENTO, Calif. -Climate activists praise Gov. Gavin Newsom for signing a $15 billion climate action package Thursday but argued he should go one step further

and declare an official “climate emergency” in California.

The bills will fund projects to build up wildfire resilience and combat the drought.

Heidi Harmon, former mayor of San Luis Obispo,

said the state needs to think even bigger.

Murders in the US rose 30% in 2020 – FBI

By Desert Star Staff The latest crime report from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) shows a historic rise in murders in the US for 2020.

Murders in the US rose by 30% from 2019 to 2020.

The surge represents the most significant year-to-year increase that has been seen since such records began being kept in the 1960s.

There was a total of 21,570 murders in 2020, an increase of approximately 4900 in 2019. About 77% of those murders were committed with a firearm, a slight increase from 74% in the previous year.

Multiple cities, including Albuquerque, Milwaukee,

Memphis, and Des Moines, have recorded high murder rates.

Major crimes, however, decreased overall for 2020, though violent crime – including assault and rape – increased by 5%.

The number of murders, however, has not hit its peak, with the 1990s still representing record highs. A total of 25,000 murders were recorded in 1991, for instance. New York City and Los Angeles also accounted for more than 10% of murders nationally in 1990 but account for less than 5% today. Both cities still saw slight increases in their murder rates Continues on Page 3

Fall Into A Greek Island Paradise

By Anthony Grant Zakynthos is a Greek island in the Ionian Sea that the Venetians once called “the flower of the Levant.” They also called it Zante, hence the history (much condensed) behind the name Porto Zante which is one of the most exclusive resorts in the world. Think luxuriously appointed villas, a secluded private beachfront setting, and sophisticated cuisine that’s both visually arresting and delicious. The secret starts with the concept, ensuring that guests can enjoy the stunning location and stellar services in an atmosphere of total privacy and discretion.

“We pride ourselves on being the most private beach resort in Europe,” says owner Yiannis Sotirakos. “We are super private with a total of nine villas, from one bedroom up to four bedrooms. Our concept has always been to stay away from stress that one can sometimes feel at a largescale resort. There are no rules in pre-ordering or pre-booking.

You can decide whatever you want, the time you want it, and we’ll just say yes.”

You have the flexibility of ordering breakfast whatever time of the day you want, and

you can enjoy it in the privacy of your villa or a la carte in the Club House restaurant,” he adds. “The moment you sit down is the moment we squeeze the fresh orange juice, bake the croissants or our famous homemade pancakes.

Everything is homemade.”

Sotirakos also says that Yes, due to the characteristics and layout of the property, “every villa is located on the private beachfront, slightly elevated eight to ten meters above the water level which is a great advantage because no one can see your villa when they are swimming in the sea— you can be totally incognito and you also have lovely views.

There are some stairs to go down to the beach. Some villas have their own beach access with private stone terraces, almost like a small castle on the sand, with sunbeds or private bars—those guests can also take short pathways to reach the main private beach.

You can enjoy light meals or cocktails right by the beach, at your private sunbed, all day.

Private dinners on the beach are also a top-rated service— this is a candlelight experience with a butler & chef service.”

When I asked if any

celebrities have stayed at Porto Zante, Sotirakos said that Kylie Minogue “stayed with her partner Paul Solomons twice and absolutely fell in love with Porto Zante, and our whole team fell in love with them! We now feature at the resort the lovely Cote de Provence rosé wines that Kylie launched a few months ago. In addition, we’ve hosted the owner of Estee Lauder group Ronald Lauder several times.”

Of course, you don’t have to be a pop star to indulge in

Greek island luxury, nor do you have to confine yourself to the beach. In fact, Sotirakos says, “there are plenty of excursions you can do with the resort as your base/ There is much more to see beyond Navagio (the famous “Shipwreck Beach”), and that’s why we have a selection of speedboats and yachts to do daily cruises all over the island. In the south, there’s Marathonisi Island, home of the Caretta Caretta sea turtle and a national marine park— just 20 minutes from guests’

The Good Kind of Rodgers Drama

By Desert Star Staff Don’t let this summer’s offseason tension fool you: Aaron Rodgers still lives for drama — just the kind where the other team gives him the ball with any time whatsoever.

Down 28-27 with no timeouts and 37 seconds, Rodgers only needed two deep passes to Davante Adams and two spikes to put Mason Crosby in position for a 51-yard field goal.

This was an old hat for the 37-year-old reigning MVP. • It was Rodgers’ 26th game-winning drive and 18th fourth-quarter comeback.

• It was his thirdlatest in terms of time left on the clock, according to Elias Sports Bureau.

• Since his zero-TD,

Then there’s the natural beauty of the island itself; it’s so green and with many spectacular beachfront and virgin areas untouched by tourists.” While many guests arrive by private jet, another way to make the journey is to fly to Athens and then take a connecting flight to Zakynthos.

two-INT performance in a Week 1 blowout loss, Rodgers has six TDs, and no picks in back-to-back wins.

The good vibes in Green Bay are a far cry from a few weeks ago when Rodgers’ rift with management almost capsized this campaign before it started.

In 2020, his four-year, $134 million extensions kicked in, but by this summer, Rodgers wanted out — he rejected an additional two years that would’ve made him the highest-paid NFL player.

He returned after renegotiating: He voided his 2023 season and will review his situation after this season.

A massive $46.1 million cap hit for 2022 will ultimately decide whether Green Bay starts the Jordan Love era any sooner.

CA Business Leaders Speak Out for Infrastructure Bill

By Suzanne Potter/PNS SACRAMENTO, Calif. - The U.S. House of Representatives should vote this week on President Joe Biden’s Build Back Better infrastructure bill, which contains significant resources to fight climate change.

A group called Business Forward highlights the costs that fires, floods, and extreme heat linked to climate change have imposed on

American companies.

Business Forward President Jim Doyle said business leaders have direct knowledge of the price we’re paying for climate change now.

“Severe weather and extreme temperatures are spiking commodity prices, disrupting supply chains, damaging plants and equipment, and messing with consumer demand for their products,” said Doyle.

The infrastructure bill would hasten the switch to renewable energy.

Doyle noted that in 2019, California imported 80% of the fossil fuels it consumed. He claimed that by switching to renewables in-state, the Golden State could create a $79 billion opportunity to buy local energy.

According to Cal Fire, more than 7,600 blazes have consumed more than 2.4 million acres in the September 29, 2021

Golden State this year. Some estimates put the damage as severe as $17 billion.

Todd Vogel co-owns Eastside Sports in Bishop and said all the smoke has led to a significant drop in the number of tourists.

“We’re completely dependent on people traveling here,” said Vogel.

“It’s very much an outdoorbased tourism economy dependent on backpacking

and fishing and skiing. But, unfortunately, as we feel more of the consequences of climate change, particularly with the five seasons, we’ve seen visitation drop off dramatically.”

Business Forward has launched a $1.2 million radio ad campaign this week - aimed at pressuring lawmakers in swing districts to help pass the infrastructure bill, including Rep. Jim Costa - D-Fresno.

Netflix Opens the Door to Live Sports

By Desert Star Staff Netflix has been steadfast in producing documentaries, but not live content or prerecorded games when it comes to sports.

However, CEO Reed Hastings could make an exception for a single property: Formula 1.

“A few years ago, the rights to Formula 1 were sold.

At that time, we were not among the bidders — today we would think about it,” Hastings told Der Spiegel.

Netflix docuseries “Drive to Survive” has been largely credited for F1’s 39% growth in viewership from 2019 to 2021. The show is currently filming its fourth season.

Murders in the US rose 30% in 2020 – FBI Continued from Page 1

from 2019 to 2020, New York City went from 319 to 500 and Los Angeles from 258 to 351.

The FBI has not given its own analysis of the change,

though experts have pointed to the Covid-19 pandemic and unrest in major cities during 2020 as potential reasons for the increase in violence.

The data for 2020 is also somewhat incomplete,

as only about 16,000 of the eligible 18,619 law enforcement agencies submitted their complete data.

Major cities have continued reporting increases in murder rates in their cities in 2021.

In addition, a mid-year report by the Major Cities Chiefs Association found that homicides this year are running higher than the same time last year, signifying another potential increase for 2021.

The Palm Desert Golf Cart Parade Has Been Postponed

By Desert Star Staff PALM DESERT, CA-- The Palm Desert Area Chamber of Commerce and the Golf Cart Parade committee have worked hard on the Palm Desert Cart Parade over the past few months, planning to ensure a fun and safe event.

Over the past week, we started to receive word that many of the usual Parade participants—including many of the young people who march, volunteer, and attend—will not be able to participate in the parade this year. Unfortunately, this meant that we would lose some of the staples of a great parade, such as our music, our pancake breakfast and many of the children and families who usually line El Paseo to take in the spectacle.

We’ve also heard from the Senior community, who are especially vulnerable to COVID and its variants, that they have reservations about attending an in-person event, despite

the precautions we’ve planned to protect their health. We take these concerns seriously, and with the withdrawal of several other key collaborators, we knew that we were reaching a tipping point.

Our desire to put on a fantastic parade has always been driven by our need to watch out for the safety and health of our business community. With all of these elements in mind, the Board of Directors has made the difficult decision to postpone the Golf Cart Parade to come back stronger and better than ever when the time is right.

To all of you who have registered to attend and to our amazing sponsors such as the Auen and Berger Foundations, thank you for your understanding and patience as we work through this. We look forward to welcoming everyone back to the Palm Desert Golf Cart Parade in 2022!

HOROSCOPES ARIES

Libra Sun highlights your relationships, marriage, partnerships, interactions professional and personal. You are seen as loyal trustworthy.

Or those are virtues to cultivate in order to have authentic relationships. Imbalances signify a new balance is attempting to emerge. You must bring this forth. Mercury, joining the Sun in Libra, says, “Learn Compassionate Communication (NVC)”. If already trained, practice with others is essential.

TAURUS You’re in a new state of gathering information for the purpose of understanding the truth about our science along with humanity’s origins and history. From this information we must create the new world. You are being assisted in these discoveries by the Sun (illumination), Mercury (messages), Saturn (structure & discipline) and Venus (concrete knowledge through science). You are to illuminate the minds of others. Tend to your fall and winter gardens now. The devas are waiting.

GEMINI You need calmness in order to sense your own creativity and quitet surroundings that allow you to cultivate your gift as the “messenger”. This is the calm before the storm, the transition before the new wave hits us. You need courage of the heart and the intelligence

of a clear mind so when the revolution begins, you are not left behind. As we stand within the interlude of the old and the new, the old no longer useful, you are called to be our present day “Paul Revere.”

CANCER Is your home in order so that you can function easily and efficiently? Your family may need to create cooperative agreements so everyone can function more effectively together. In some families there are those members who seek dominance and those who seek equality. Perhaps it’s a situation of resources, delegation of tasks and duties?

You sense life is transforming quite radically and you’re at the swirling center. Gather all that creates protection and a place of refuge for all creatures.

LEO Like Taurus, you can be a loyal loving friend, exemplary in terms of trust. But that’s only if you feel a sense of well-being, being loved and cared for unconditionally. It is only in this way that you can evolve. Strength and courage are building within you along with a new twoyear cycle. Be very caring in approaching others, especially with communication. You are to bring balance - an interlude of kindness – to everyone.

VIRGO The Libra Sun highlights your sense of values, what they are,

what they could be, what you want them to be. Knowing our values helps us define ourselves and understand the lens through which we see the world. Is your material world in a state of order, organization and balance? Do you project out into the world the values of kindness and beauty.

Perhaps you can consider bringing a new balance into the old, a new harmony, too.

LIBRA You sense changes occurring in all relationships, close and far away. These reflect your need for subtle shifts and changes within. A mirror reflects the inner to outer and vice-versa. Something from the past, perhaps mother, a parent, something you loved, is emotionally significant. It is a spiritually serious responsibility to bring about a healing. As you contemplate this, and begin the process of forgiveness, old patterns (karma) fall away.

You close many doors. A new door opens. It’s golden.

SCORPIO In the coming month you may feel a sense of imbalance which is really a seeking of a new better balance. It may feel difficult at first. You may be out of sorts, feel a loss of direction, things out of order and everything veiled.

And no matter what you choose and feel you need, something else will materialize.

Do not be fretful, fearful or feel lost. The Neptune waters are creating a new state of

compassion and organization for you. This will pass. You will miss this state of being.

SAGITTARIUS It’s a good time to consider what your ideals are. Not ideas, but ideals. They are different. Did you know the New Group of World Servers radiates to humanity’s hearts and minds spiritual ideas?

These then become “ideals” within humanity. They call humanity to be the World Disciple. And so the question what are your ideals? Do you consider them? Do you compromise them? I don’t think you do. Ideals are part of a world disciple’s tool kit. Ideals direct us. Can you list yours?

CAPRICORN The Libra Sun in your chart is helping you project and offer your creativity to the world.

The time has come to bring forth all your years of creative preparations. Wherever you are in the world, you are respected, and at time, feared.

But that’s what all leaders experience. You have significant influence both creatively and especially socially. Something or someone confronts you.

Remain poised – like a duck happy in a rainfall. You can turn something withholding into a future promise of goodness.

Whatever the choice and outcome, everything will be in balance and in equilibrium.

Most of all you need to play and have a bit of fun. You win!

PISCES There’s lots of hard work to be accomplished each day these days. Careful of exhaustion and burn out, and of things hot and red. Life feels demanding, mysterious, bittersweet, with more tasks added each day.

As you tend to others in your work, seek the essence within them. Sometimes you can see it, sometimes not. Form covers it. Sometimes you hurt. Protect yourself with mantrams & prayer, right diet and time in the Sun. And put on those new shoes.

Tips when Selecting your Medicare Plans Every year your Medicare plan sends out a brochure before renewal called the Annual Notice of Change (ANOC). It is essential to review this information to determine if you wish to stay with the plan you are currently on, or you want to switch.

The most important consideration is to make sure that your Doctors are in the NetworkNetwork.

Both Preferred Provider Organizations (PPO) and Health Maintenance Orgs.

(HMO) have networks, and they can change from year to year. Even though PPOs will cover costs in or out of NetworkNetwork, the payment of the claim is much less if the doctor is not listed. HMOs will only cover doctors out of NetworkNetwork If their office is within a radius of where you live, per se, a 30-mile radius, or you are out of the area. Medicare Supplement plans allow the most flexibility and will pay any doctor as long as they accept Medicare. Most plans have a ”Doctor Find” page on their website. This provides the most up-to-date information.

The next most important consideration is to check the formulary of drugs on the plan’s listing because they must be listed to be covered, period.

Many people subscribe to Medicare Advantage plans. They are County rated plans (not age-rated like Supplemental plans}.

Both Med. Supp. And Med. Advantage offers many Ancillary benefits, such as transportation to and from medical appts., hearing and vision testing, glasses, hearing aids, coverage for over-the counter-drugs, and some even offer to pay some of the co-payment for part B (out-patient services or Part D co-payment prescription drugs. It varies per plan.

It is imperative, by the way, to track your income each year as higher incomes can increase your monthly copayment for parts B and C. Every year, insurance carriers must submit their new plan models to CMS (the Center of Medicare & Medicaid services). Some benefits can change. The one we see change most often is adding a co-pay for extended care in the hospital. Generally, it will be $100 per day for

a period of days, but after the time period lapses, you are on the hook for the total amount charged. (Primary Medicare will cover up to 100 days which is on most Med. Supplement plans).

Also, compare the out-of-pocket maximum on various plans.

Keep in mind two critical conditions under your plan: Filing a Grievance or Appeal.

The difference is that a grievance is a complaint about services, where an appeal is used so that you want to

appeal a decision within the contract. For example, your current drugs are no longer on the formulary, but you need to take the Brand name drug, not a generic one. The form to file an appeal is listed on the www.

Medicare.gov, website or your doctor can provide a copy.

My last tip is to use the www.Medicare.gov website to compare prices for drug plans. Since there are so many choices, this site will allow you to input your drug, milligrams, and how often you are required to take each medication and

Border Protection – Six Reasons to Stay in Your (HOA) Lane

By Kelly G. Richardson, Esq. Last week’s column reviewed the roles and boundaries of each HOA team member.

While sometimes it can seem frustrating for volunteer leaders to adhere to their role as directors, there are at least six reasons to do so.

1. Statutory Immunity: Civil Code Section 5800 gives HOA leaders immunity if the HOA has certain minimum Directors & Officers (“D&O”) insurance coverage in place. The protection is limited to acts or omissions “performed within the scope of the officer’s or director’s association duties.” (Section 5800(a)(1)). So, if a team member acts outside their duties, they also act outside the liability protection of this law. For example, if someone allegedly negligently repaired a gate, that would likely be characterized as outside their governance duties and therefore outside their immunity.

2. Insurance: D&O insurance typically has language following the Civil Code Section 5800 language, meaning that those acting outside the board role may www.desertstarweekly.com

be outside the protection of the D&O insurance in addition to outside their statutory immunity.

Scammers Target Applicants to FEMA COVID Funeral-Cost Program

By Suzanne Potter/PNS SACRAMENTO, Calif.

-- Did you know the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has a program to reimburse funeral expenses up to $9,000 when someone dies of COVID-19? Now, some scammers are trying to take advantage of grieving families.

To prevent fraud, you have to apply over the phone, not online.

Veronica Verde, external affairs officer for FEMA Region 9, said applicants must prove the loved one died after Jan. 20, 2020, with COVID-19 as the likely cause of death.

“You must provide a copy of the death certificate, proof of funeral expenses incurred, and proof of funeral assistance received from any other source,” Verde outlined.

Any monies you receive

from sources such as a GoFundMe account will be deducted from the benefit amount. To qualify, the person must have died on American soil.

You will also have to give the Social Security number and date of birth for yourself and the deceased.

For more information, go to the FEMA COVID funeral assistance website. To apply, call 844-684-6333.

FEMA reports scammers have been checking obituaries and cold-calling relatives of people who died of COVID, offering to complete the registration process for you.

Verde recommended if you are contacted out of the blue, hang up and call FEMA directly.

“FEMA will not contact you until you call or apply for assistance,” Verde explained.

“FEMA is not going to ask you to pay anything to get this benefit. So please do not give out any information

about yourself or your loved ones or anyone who might contact you.”

You can report a

scammer to FEMA or the Federal Trade Commission at ReportFraud.ftc.gov.

Beam Up These Terrific Titles

A field of legendary artists return via outstanding new releases.

Artist: William Shatner Titles: Bill (Lets Get It Records / Republic Records) You might like if you enjoy: William Shatner, Leonard Cohen, Brad Paisley, Joe Walsh Tell me more: William Shatner has released a number of celebrated albums dating back to 1968’s “The Transformed Man.” What’s so impressive is that how at the age of 90 the famed actor/director/author has released what is likely his most impressive effort. The autobiographical “Bill” features 14 tracks that collectively chronicle events and challenges of a singular life with compelling candor. The music making equals the cultural icon’s ambitious efforts to try and understand the forces at work in his journey; a slew of celebrated artists join in on select tracks recorded during the global pandemic. On the propulsive album opener “I Ride” he taps into the thrill of racing down the road and the freedom that comes with that experience we mostly take for granted. The blues rocker “Made in the Shade” features guitar great Joe Walsh (James Gang, The Eagles) in an enticing

effort where Shatner raps with buoyant fervor; in “Masks” Shatner explores the enigma of acting and the “masks” that actors assume in their various roles. The chamber pop flavored “Black Horse” chronicles how a champion horse Shatner had was wrongly transformed into a slave — the artist’s obvious guilt about the relationship and how it subsequently led to a deep love of horses and their care comes alive in the song. Other gripping tracks include “Monday Night in London” where Shatner revisits the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic amidst a prog rock soundscape, the gospel flavored “Just Forgive” (with pedal steel guitarist Robert Randolph), mortality-focused “What Do We Know” and inspirational “The Bridge.” My favorite original of the album is the country-flavored “So Far From the Moon,” where Shatner looks back at 1969 when he was hit with the cancellation of “Star Trek,” a divorce and was sleeping in in the back of his pickup truck in a sleeping bag while doing a tour of dinner theater venues. Nevertheless, he finds strength in the memory knowing that he had met the Apollo 11 astronauts about a year before they successfully landed on the lunar surface.

Brad Paisley’s flashy lead guitar work and emotive vocals bolster Shatner’s reflective

2021’s Best California Cities for Tacos

By Desert Star Staff Californians are “tacobsessed” — so crazy are the locals over this beloved Mexican street fare that we had to find out which of the Golden State’s 100 biggest cities serve up top tacos.

LawnStarter crunched the nachos numbers to unwrap 2021’s Best California Cities for Tacos — in time for National Taco Day, Oct. 4.

We looked for cities with wide taco access, top Michelin honors, high consumer ratings, and taco festivals.

We even considered Google search volumes for “tacos” to gauge local taco love.

Check out the 10 California cities that are nacho average taco towns (and the 10 to www.desertstarweekly.com

avoid) below, followed by critical tacoways from our report.

2021’s Best California Cities for Tacos Rank City 1 Santa Barbara, CA 2 Santa Monica, CA 3 Costa Mesa, CA 4 Newport Beach, CA 5 San Diego, CA 6 Inglewood, CA 7 Sacramento, CA 8 Orange, CA 9 Berkeley, CA 10 Escondido, CA 2021’s Worst California Cities for Tacos Rank City 91 Lancaster, CA 92 Menifee, CA 93 Fremont, CA 94 Simi Valley, CA

“Lost Pride Fever,” mid tempo nugget “I See Your Silhouette” and driving “Lonesome Boy.” Listening to the strong tracks across “For All The Money In The World” it’s easy to believe a number of these cuts would have graced commercial radio in the 1980s. Information: DougCosmoClifford.com.

95 Livermore, CA 96 Ventura, CA 97 Santa Clara, CA 98 Glendale, CA 99 Vacaville, CA 100 Salinas, CA Key Tacoways: Santa Barbara: The California Taco Capital: The city known as The American Riviera not only scored over 35 points higher than the next best taco town, Santa Monica, but it also dominated two out of three categories: Access and Quality. It doesn’t get any better than that.

And in case you need further proof that Santa Barbara is the “eat” town for tacos — get it? — just take a stroll down the city’s famed Taco Trail. The city already mapped out your September 29, 2021

journey: “Let the aroma of freshly baked tortillas guide you from Milpas Street and the Funk Zone to the waterfront, downtown State Street, and beyond … .”

LA Metro’s (Taco)infusion: Big cities aren’t always everything they’re cracked up to be, and that’s definitely true of Los Angeles in this case. Five out of our top 10 California taco towns are clustered around the City of Angels (No. 38).

At No. 2 overall in Santa Monica, Costa Mesa at No. 3, and Newport Beach at No. 4.

Rounding out the fab five are Inglewood at No. 6 and Orange in eighth place. These cities offer a healthy mix of easy access to taco joints and high-quality eats.

But where might one attend a taco festival? In Los Angeles,

of course, the city that ranked No. 9 overall in this metric but average in all others. Huh? Outranked in the Outskirts: The farther you graze from the big city centers, the worse tacos get. So many of the cities in our bottom 10 lie in the outskirts of major urban cores like Los Angeles, San Diego, and San Francisco.

Salinas, for example, our Worst California City for Tacos due to earning the lowest median consumer rating for its taquerias, is a bit of a hike from San Francisco. As another example, Lancaster (No. 91), Menifee (No. 92), and Simi Valley (No. 94) surround some of the best Los Angeles suburbs in our ranking.

But hey, if you live in one of these smaller towns, just follow your nose, and it will taco you to the best tortillas just a few miles down the road.

“LAMB” – A Spellbinding Nordic Folktale Directed by Valdimar Johannson

is exchanged between husband and wife as they go through their daily routines. Soon we’ll understand exactly what triggered that sadness. They are sheep farmers and are in the barn helping an ewe deliver her baby lamb on Christmas Eve. Maria pulls the baby out, and on looking at it, glances at her husband, and they quickly wrap the lamb “Mary had a little lamb, unfolds. In this case, because in a baby blanket and whisk Her fleece was white as snow the film is so exquisitely done, it off to their living quarters.

This childless well into the film to satisfy that addresses appears to be Satyr, couple ghost walks through curiosity. Time passes, and at who is half man-half goat. So, their daily activities – polite to last, we see Ada, who is now as an audience member, it is each other but genuinely lost in about seven years old. From essential to agree to suspend what appears to be profound the neck down, her body is your disbelief as the story sadness. Very little conversation human, but her head is that of a

lamb. She doesn’t speak but is warm, friendly, and immensely loving towards her affectionate parents. She happily helps with household chores such as setting the table for meals or going into the field with her father to help with planting.

Things are going along fine, and Maria seems to be in a better frame of mind. The couple, who have been friendly but somewhat estranged because of their tragedy, are becoming close again. Just when things are going well with this happy family, along comes Ingvar’s brother Petur, nicely played

by Björn HIynur Haraldsson.

When he first sees Ada, he is appalled and tells him, brother; he must kill this aberrant thing. Of course, Ingvar, being the dad, will not kill his child, so his brother takes it upon himself to do away with this creature. With a rifle in one hand and her hand in his other, he marches into the field and aims at her head, at which point I found myself saying, “Oh no.” But relax, he cannot do it, and in the next scene, Ada is snuggled in his arms. Petur, who apparently had a fling with Maria in the past, makes a play for her, and in short order, she takes him to the bus,

hands him money, and away he goes. During this crucial time, Ingvar walks into the field with his daughter where, from a distance, a shot is fired, and dad is mortally wounded. I shall not tell you who shot him and what happens to this creature, half girl, half sheep. Still, I will tell you that there’s a perfect denouement that blends reality with a historic mythical figure, leaving you with questions about the morality of stealing another’s offspring, as well as questions about its intended destiny.

This provocative, unforgettable film, enhanced by composer Thorarinn Gudnason’s music and meticulously edited by Agnieszka Glinska, is probably unlike anything you’ve seen before and will undoubtedly leave you somewhat spellbound, rendering you unwilling to get up out of your seat immediately.

Biden provides American Rescue Plan Funds to California

By Desert Star Staff Today, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, through the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), awarded $139,140,656 in American Rescue Plan funding to 166 health centers in California to expand their primary health care infrastructure in medically underserved communities.

Additionally, to bolster their efforts combatting COVID-19 locally, health center recipients in California may also use this

funding to secure freezers to store COVID-19 vaccines. In addition, purchase mobile vans to reach better and vaccinate marginalized communities, construct, renovate or expand their facilities. Hence, they are better equipped for future pandemics or public health challenges. In total, this funding will support 247 health center projects in California.

“Health centers are lifelines for many of our most vulnerable families across the country, especially amidst the

pandemic,” said Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra. “Thanks to American Rescue Plan funds, we’re modernizing facilities across the country to meet better the most pressing public health challenges associated with COVID-19. In addition, this historic investment means we get to expand access to care for COVID-19 testing, treatment and vaccination – all to advance equity.”

Nationwide, HRSA awarded nearly $1 billion to September 29, 2021

almost 1,300 health centers in all 50 states, the District of Columbia and the U.S. territories. The funds were awarded to health centers that serve medically underserved and other vulnerable populations and communities, which are disproportionately affected by COVID-19 and other health conditions.

For example, more than 91 percent of the nearly 29 million health center patients are individuals or families living at or below 200% of the

Federal Poverty Guidelines, and almost 63 percent are racial/ethnic minorities.

“HRSA-funded health centers play a vital role in the local community response to the COVID-19 pandemic,” said HRSA Acting Administrator Diana Espinosa. “Investing in health center construction and modernization will significantly increase access to affordable, high-quality primary health care services in underserved communities across the nation.”

a t First Taste e ov Tips for introducing solid foods to your baby

FAMILY FEATURES

hroughout a child’s first years of life, there are several milestones for marking growth, development and progress toward maturity. As many parents can attest, few of those milestones are as messy, imperfect and joyful as those associated with a baby’s first tastes of new foods and flavors.

The 2020-25 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recognize that from 6-24 months is a key age range for building healthy eating patterns with a variety of foods such as vegetables, fruits and whole grains. Starting solid foods, such as oatmeal or pureed vegetables and fruits, is the first step. However, beginning this journey can often bring parents additional stress as they question what and how much is right to feed their child.

Get your little one on the path to a lifetime of healthy eating habits with these tips from Dr. Whitney Casares, pediatric consultant for Gerber.

Let the journey begin

Check with your pediatrician before starting any solid foods. Most babies are ready for solid foods around 6 months, but it’s important to not offer solids before 4 months.

Around the middle of the first year of life, it is important for your baby to get iron from the foods he or she eats, especially if breastfed.

Iron-fortified baby cereal can help provide this important nutrient to support healthy growth and brain development.

Some signs your baby is ready for solid foods are when he or she has good head control, sits up with help or support, brings objects to his or her mouth and seems interested in food others are eating.

For the first attempts at feeding solids, pick a time of day when your baby is in good spirits, wide awake and mildly hungry. You can offer breastmilk or formula before solids, if necessary, so your child is not uncomfortably hungry.

Make sure your baby is sitting up and secured in a highchair. Use a soft, rubber-tipped spoon and start by guiding the spoon to your baby’s mouth with both your hand and your child’s hand on the spoon.

Introducing first tastes

Purees and infant cereal are wholesome and developmentally appropriate options for discovering solid foods and can help your baby discover a variety of flavors. Baby cereal is a good starting point for most babies because you can mix it with breastmilk or formula, and it is fortified with iron. This familiar taste can help your baby accept the new taste and texture of cereal.

While stage-appropriate purees can be made at home, another way to make your transition to solids easy is with an option like Gerber’s My 1st Starter Kits that come with fruit and vegetable varieties making it simple for parents to introduce baby to high-quality, nutritious and appropriate foods.

Follow baby’s lead

Your baby’s first tries at swallowing solid foods may be awkward and will likely require practice. If food is rejected, offer a few more spoonfuls and gauge your child’s response to decide whether to continue or try again another day.

Responsive feeding is an approach that helps set your baby up for healthy eating habits. Observing your child’s reactions can help determine if he or she is adventurous or cautious, hungry or full. All of this can help you feed in a manner best suited for your baby. Look for cues your child is interested in eating more – smiling or reaching toward the spoon – as well as those that indicate fullness such as turning away, pushing the spoon away, leaning away from the spoon, shaking his or her head or spitting food out.

Alternatively, baby-led weaning emphasizes exploration – of tastes, textures, colors and smells – and encourages baby to self-feed whole pieces of food cut into strips or small pieces. Spoons can also be preloaded for him or her, and this approach also promotes the development of gross and fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination and chewing.
