Tidbits of Coachella Valley

Week of January 12, 2014

If you were living in the 1880s and were in the market for a watch, would you know where to get one? You would logically go to a store, right? Of course you could do that, but if you wanted one that was cheaper and a bit better than most of the store watches, you would instead go to the local railroad station! Sound a bit strange? But, for about 500 towns across the northern United States, that’s where the best watches were found. • Why were the best watches found at the train station? The railroad company certainly wasn’t selling them, not at all The telegraph operator was. The telegraph operator was usually located in the railroad station because the telegraph lines followed the railroad tracks from town to town. This was usually the shortest distance and

Vol. X Issue 3

Q: A few months back, you mentioned

that a “Veronica Mars” movie is in the making. Can you tell me when it’ll be released? I can’t wait! -- Stacy W., via email

A: “Veronica Mars” hits theaters March 14,

Like the rest of the world, I was so shocked to hear that Paul Walker had died in a car crash. I saw his last movie, “Hours,” the other day, and he was so good in it. I know he was working on the next “Fast and Furious” movie when he died. Any chance they’ll still release it? -- Jimmy T., Oceanside, Calif.

Production on “Fast and Furious 7” was shut down after Paul’s death, with 60 percent of the movie having been shot. It wasn’t clear what they would do. Would they cancel the movie? Use CGI for some of his remaining scenes? Cut him out all together? Then just before Christmas, Universal released this official statement about “FF7,” along with a release date: “Continuing the global exploits in the franchise built on speed, Vin Diesel and Paul Walker lead the returning cast of ‘Fast and Furious 7,’ which will be released by Universal Pictures on April 10, 2015.” So, Paul will be in the movie, and you can bet millions of people can’t wait to see him in his final role. ***

Can you tell me if or when “The Americans” will return for another season? -- Ginnie F., via email

FX recently announced that the spy drama -- which centers on the Cold War era of the 1980s -- starring Keri Russell and Matthew Rhys will return for 13 episodes come February. (As of this writing, I don’t have an exact date.) ***

and it stars Kristen Bell, Krysten Ritter, Gaby Hoffman, Justin Long, J a m e s Franco, Ken Marino, and m a n y m o r e . There’s even a cameo by Kristen Bell Kristen’s real-life husband, Dax Shepard.

We scoop, disinfect and rap. remove you The word “acceptance” gets a bad poop weekly for Acceptance is not resignation. It’s not defeatistonly or $9.75 complacent. Acceptance is powerful and progressive -- a symbol that marks that point in time when a person seizes control of their life. Acceptance is the antidote to denial.

Denial fuels paralysis. It destroys relationships, drains bank accounts, limits potential, inhibits progress, wreaks havoc on our health and leaves questionable politicians in power for far too long. And it’s certainly no way to deal with a dog. An acquaintance of mine is having trouble with his neighbors -- if you ask him. If you ask them, they’re having trouble with his dogs. I asked him what the problem was, and he said, “My neighbors say my dogs bark when I’m not home, but I don’t think they do.” Not “but I know they don’t because I recorded them while I was out.” Not “but I know they don’t because I pretended to leave and then caught the neighbor red-handed provoking my dogs.”

(Mega Maze Solution on page 12)

Nope. For him it was enough to simply deny the possibility outright and assume his neighbors are lying. The irony is that he is an elementary-school teacher. No one is more familiar with the frustrations of denial than a teacher of young children. “Thank you for coming in, Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Your son hid a dead squirrel in my desk drawer today.”

Barking is a behavioral problem that frequently gets blown all out of proportion because of denial. Yes, barking is communication, it’s natural, it’s protection. But it’s also annoying and disruptive when excessive. Barking isn’t the problem. Excessive barking is the problem. And if your dog is accused, the first step should be determining whether he is an excessive barker. If so, there are a multitude of options available to help manage or cure the CASEY’S CORNER: Turn to page 10

High blood pressure afflicts one in three Americans, is more common in blacks than in whites and is significantly higher among the obese. Recent research published in the journal Circulation: Cardiovascular and Quality Outcomes shows 25 percent of hypertensives only becoming aware of their blood pressures after a major complication has developed. By this time, many problems are irreversible, and it’s too late to prevent a shorter life expectancy due to declines in cardiovascular function. High blood pressure occurs very gradually and is generally caused by spasm of arteries. As a consequence, more force is needed to pump blood out of the heart. This causes the top or systolic blood pressure to increase. And because blood March 25, 2012 Vol. 8 - No. 13 vessels are less able to relax, the bottom or diastol- David Lipschitz and read features by other Creators Syndicate writers and cartoonists, visit the Creators Syndicate ic blood pressure increases as well.

SOCIAL SECURITY by Tom Margenau

January Often the Best Month to File for Social Security I write a column similar to this one every January. But I don’t mind plagiarizing myself because it contains a very important message for people planning to retire in 2014. January is a critical month for the hundreds of thousands of potential Social Security beneficiaries who are reaching 66 (their so-called full retirement age) in 2014. The important message: Most of them should at least consider the possibility of filing for their benefits this month, even though they may not be reaching their retirement age until later in the year. But please note: This procedure should not be employed by folks planning on using one of the Social Security maximizing strategies I’ve discussed Ad Proof: so often in this column (e.g., “file and suspend” or Bram’s “restricted application”) because those provisions 1/16th page, BW, rate generally require you26x to wait until [$59/wk] age 66 before filing for benefits.

Those provisions generally keep seniors who are still working off of Social Security’s rolls until they reach that magic full retirement age.

made in Falls Creek, Pa., by Jackson China Company. The firm was founded in 1917 and “Royal” was added to its mark around 1940. “Parisienne” is the name of the dishes’ shape, which was available in a variety of pattern decorations. Jackson China Company made fine-quality china and also hotel dishes. The factory closed in 1985 because of a lack of funds to clean up environmental contaminations from sludge and pollution to nearby wetlands. Your set of dinnerware would probably be in the range of $400 to $500.

CRAIG BIGGIO One of the greatest second basemen of alltime and the greatest Italian second baseman since Tony Lazerri. MIKE PIAZZA Madone! You have to harken back to Berra, Dickey and Bench to find a better offensive catcher. EDGAR MARTINEZ The greatest DH of all time. The end of story is an induction to Cooperstown. JACK MORRIS, DON MATTINGLY, LEE SMITH Housekeeping. All three were dominant for the greater part of a decade and were classic sportsmen. All three will someday be enshrined ... here’s hoping the writers do the right thing before the Veteran’s Committee has to clean up.

This name is on the back of each dish in my set of china that I bought in 1966. It is a ser vice for 12 and decorated with silver floral designs against a white background. Also included with the mark are the name “Parisienne” and a tower. It is like new because I have never used it. I think it was made in Poland. I would like to know how much my set is worth.

TOM GLAVINE A pure athlete who was made better thanks to the camaraderie he shared with battery-mates Maddux and (future inductee) John Smoltz. The Warren Spahn of our generation.

And apologies to: FRED MCGRIFF. JEFF BAGWELL, CURT SCHILLING ... who in any other year would merit inclusion on my ballot. Mark Vasto is a veteran sportswriter who lives in Kansas City.
