PALM DESERT – As founder and chair of the Barbara Sinatra Children’s Center, Barbara Sinatra’s passion for making a difference runs deep. And her acceptance of the role of Grand Marshal for The Palm Desert Golf Cart Parade, set for Sunday, Oct. 27, at 1 p.m. along El Paseo Drive, shows that it is stronger than ever.

“I am honored to have been chosen as the Grand Marshal of the 49th Palm Desert Golf Cart Parade,” Sinatra said. “I am thrilled to be a part of this valley-wide event and look forward to spending the day with this wonderful community I call my home.”

More than 25 years ago, with the support of her illustrious singer-husband, Frank, Sinatra began focusing on raising funds for the establishment of a state-of-the-art facility to provide counseling for children suffering from physical, sexual and emotional abuse. The nonprofit Barbara Sinatra Children’s Center, located on the campus of Eisenhower Medical Center in Rancho Mirage, would also focus on prevention, community education and

breaking the generational cycle of abuse. Services would be available regardless of a family’s inability to pay.

As a result of Sinatra’s direct involvement, and with the support of the community and people throughout the world, the Children’s Center has since become a respected international voice for victims of child abuse. Through her efforts, more than 18,000 abused children through age 18 have received beneficial therapy — making it possible for them to cope with traumas associated with abuse.

“On behalf of the entire parade planning committee of volunteers, we are filled with gratitude to have ‘Lady Blue Eyes’ herself as this year’s Grand Marshal,” said Parade Chairman Mike Hardin. “She has made an instrumental impact on our community through the Children’s Center and the Frank Sinatra Golf Invitational. It is going to be a fantastic family event!”

Other activities on parade day include a Palm Desert Rotary Pancake Breakfast, 8 a.m.; Golf Expo and Cart Show, 10 a.m.;

and Webb Foundation’s Kid’s Play Zone and food and drink vendors, all opening at 11 a.m.

To make reservations for Eisenhower Medical Center’s VIP parade seating and Auen Foundation’s free senior seating, contact the Palm Desert Area

Chamber of Commerce, 760-346-6111, or email [email protected].

SALTon SEE-WoRThYContinued from Page 1

Founder and chair of the Barbara Sinatra Children’s Center, Barbara Sinatra (Photo courtesy of zimbio.com)

in Los Angeles, combines natural and manmade elements in his photos, videos and sculptures in a technique he calls “New Earth Art” — for example, applying construction marking paint to branches and the dried skeletal remains of dead tilapia fish to suggest humankind’s uneasy relationship with the environment.

“There’s definitely a new life or existence given to the objects once they’re re-constructed or painted in bright neon pigment,” he said. “Mutations of nature and industry manifest as one within my work.”

The toxic danger posed by

the evaporating and increasingly saline great lake, beyond the notoriously noxious fish die-offs represented vividly by several of Cichocki’s creations, is a theme the artist takes personally.

“I’m attached to the Salton Sea as someone who cares about the future of Southern California,” he said. “Scientists project that it will become a dried up lake bed that will expose cancerous micro-debris in the next 20 years if neglected…there’s an airborne catastrophe on the horizon. This potential poor air quality will make Southern California uninhabitable if no action is taken.

“The Salton Sea can be saved and flourish once again, yet it’s in a governmental gridlock right now where no one wants to commit to actually funding a

sustainable game plan. We need to re-evaluate our priorities and put the Sea at the top of the list. If this reality continues to go unacknowledged any longer, it may be too late.”

Along with Cichocki’s environmental concern and desert passion comes an abiding respect for the natural forces that continue to shape the Coachella Valley.

“This region is aligned next to the San Andreas fault,” the artist noted. “It’s intense when you think of the potential magnitude of seismic activity that could take place. The boiling geothermal hot springs are a little reminder that the earth is a breathing force capable of abrupt transformation at any given time.”

The blacklit neon pieces,

abstractly projected video clips and accompanying aural effects of “Desert Abyss: Cycle in Cycle” may be capable of transforming one’s own perception.

“Nature inverses upon itself in various forms,” Cichocki said. “There’s something unresolved or to be continued within the work.”

For more on the exhibition, visit cristophersea.com. The Palm Springs Art Museum is hosting three associated events: Artist Spotlight and Family Activity, Sunday, Sept. 8 Sunday, Sept. 8, 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. (free); Artist Talk: Thursday, Sept. 12, 6-7 p.m. (free); and Future Days of the Salton Sea Symposium, Sunday, Sept. 22, 3-5 p.m. (free with museum admission).

As “The Company You Keep,” now on DVD, shows, your past can come back to haunt you.

Such is the case for lawyer Jim Grant (Robert Redford), a single father raising his young daughter (Jackie Evancho) alone following the death of her mother in a car crash. He is a doting parent, a respected member of his community and a highly successful lawyer. Suddenly his well-ordered existence starts to unravel when Ben Shepard (Shia LaBeouf), an over-eager young reporter, confronts him in his office following the arrest of a 1970s-era

radical (Susan Sarandon) who has been apprehended by the FBI. Ironically, she is captured on her way to willingly surrendering to authorities after 30 years in hiding.

Shepard wants to know why Grant refused to be her lawyer. Grant tells him he referred her to another lawyer who could better handle her case since his plate was full with other clients. Suspicious and eager to get a scoop, Shepard starts digging through old records of the era and discovers that Grant was

the fugitive leader of a 1970s antiwar protest group. Eventually the reporter also discovers there is much more to Grant, who is forced to go on the run to protect himself from the FBI, than meets the eye.

Robert Redford not only stars in the film, he also skillfully directs this taut political thriller. The all-star cast includes Julie Christie, Sam Elliott, Terrence Howard, Richard Jenkins, Stanly Tucci, Nick Nolte, Chris Cooper and Brendan Gleeson.

Special features include: “Behind the Scenes: The Movement , The Scr ipt , Preparation and the Cast,” “On the Red Carpet” and “’The Company You Keep’ Press Conference.”

Sony Pictures Classics, rated R for language.

A t t e n t i o n “ G re y ’s Anatomy” fans: The complete ninth season “Everything Changes” DVD set is now available — complete with exclusive bonus features that

include “Happy Trails With Jim Pickens, Jr.” Saddle up with Pickens (Dr. Richard Webber) as he shares his love for the cowboy life, and how he channels that passion into his own charitable foundation. Other bonuses: “The Long Road Home,” with Jessica Capshaw sharing how she adapted to the challenges of playing an amputee; “Deleted Scenes”; and for laughs that will keep you in stitches, “Outtakes.”

Wynonna at Fantasy SpringsINDIO – Five-time Grammy

winner and New York Times best-selling author Wynonna Judd is headed to Fantasy Springs Resort Casino. Wynonna &The Big Noise will take the stage in the Special Events Center on Saturday, Sept. 21.

Judd has built her career on storytelling. Whether performing alongside her mother as one half of the legendary duo The Judds or pushing the boundaries on her own mega-successful solo path, Judd’s ability to reach the heart of the human spirit through her bold and unflinching honesty, is the entertainer’s true gift.

Respected by mill ions of fans, Wynonna’s rich and commanding voice has sold over 30 million albums worldwide spanning her epic 30-year career. Charting countless singles — including 20 number-one hits — and winning over 60 industry awards, the iconic performer was once dubbed by Rolling Stone

as “the greatest female country singer since Patsy Cline.”

Joined in the studio by her husband, bandleader and producer Michael “Cactus” Moser, Wynonna’s highly anticipated eighth studio album is scheduled for release this year. This effort, said to be a true labor of love for the vocalist, will feature her new single “Something You Can’t Live Without,” released by Curb Records.

Wynonna’s current tour and forthcoming album culminate a particularly busy several years. With her stint on ABC’s juggernaut show “Dancing With the Stars,” her novel “Restless Heart” in stores and The Judds docu-series debuting successfully on the Oprah Winfrey Network in 2011, you can bet Wynonna’s fans will be watching very closely as she writes this next chapter of her legendary career.

Tickets for the 8 p.m. performance go on sale Tuesday,

Aug. 20, for $79, $59 and $39 at the Fantasy Springs Box Office, via telephone at 800-827-2946

or online at fantasyspringsresort.com.

la Quinta Enforces School Zone SafetyLA QUINTA – Early

September marks the time of year when thousands of Riverside County children head back to school. Every morning, kids make their way to campus by bus, car, on foot or by bike.

Despite posted signs and crossing guards, school zones can be among the most dangerous areas for our children. Speeding, jay-walking, double parking and distracted driving by parents who text or talk on their cell phones can jeopardize a child’s ability to arrive at school safely.

In response to community and parental requests regarding school zone traffic hazards, the La Quinta Police Department announced that it will be conducting high visibility traffic enforcement details throughout the school year.

During these operations, officers will focus their enforcement effort in the area of La Quinta High School and the middle school areas. The goal of this operation is to make motorists more aware of the rules of the road and to promote

safe driving around our schools. The California Vehicle Code

contains several important statutes that are applicable to driving within a school zone, as well as for pedestrians and bicyclists. Vehicle Code §22352, requires motorists to drive no more than 25 miles per hour when approaching or passing a school zone. Many drivers fail to stop for pedestrians in a crosswalk. Vehicle Code §21950 requires the driver of a vehicle to yield the right-of-way to a pedestrian crossing the roadway within any marked crosswalk or within any unmarked crosswalk at an intersection.

Additionally, per Vehicle Code §2815, it is an infraction to disregard any traffic signal or direction given by a school crossing guard.

Arriving to school early will help parents avoid congestion and decrease speeding through school zones to get kids to class on time. For additional information, call the La Quinta Police Department Traffic Division at 760-863-8990.

Diplomacy and friendships become most important. As you seek one-on-one interactions, your mind offers you thoughts like negotiate, collaborate, understand the other side as well as your own. You will be asked to choose. You will seek to be rational. At times you will go back and forth, unable to choose. Seeking peace between you and others you will not jump to conclusions. You’ll be challenged to accommodate. You do it.

Making lists, clearing the surrounding archeological digs of papers, tending to daily health, paying bills, making schedules — all are part of your work this month. You must concentrate on not dissipating your energy. You might just have a half-day’s worth to work with. The rest of the day needs to be for rest and care of the body. You will want to learn something new, detailed, perhaps a bit obscure. You seek efficiency and comprehension. You find it.

You’re attempting to express yourself in creative and powerful ways — ideas, thinking,

conversations, humor, writing, art, children, playfulness and romance. You may feel like taking risks, competing with others, participating in mental games — things stimulating spontaneity and pride of accomplishment. You seek the company of intelligent thinkers and artists. From these you are able to reflect upon and discover your own creative self-identity.

There’s a certain solitude available at this time giving you time to concentrate and focus on personal matters, family, the past and loved ones. You’re able to be rational and open-minded. You share memories about home and family. You take measures to bring about a greater state of healing. You’re preparing for something in the near future. You now have time to prepare adequately without interruption. You share revelations and impressions and beauties from the garden.

You have a newly discovered ability with words, more curiosity and the ability to accomplish more tasks than usual. Short trips, emails, errands, visits,

discovering new neighborhoods and chatting with family and friends begin to accelerate, happening all at once. Then you feel scattered and overwhelmed with information overload. This is Mercury providing new stimulus, introducing new projects, making different connections. You might feel restless. Run up and down the road a bit.

Be careful with money, finances, income and outflow. Be rational, practical and know all the details of your financial picture — investing with careful calculations. Tend carefully to possessions, discovering their value. Mercury helps us gain all that is new through communication — writing, editing, publishing, etc. Concentrate on whatever interests you value. Build a little architectural folly in your back yard.

Things are private these days and you’re concerned with many issues from the past. You’re quiet and don’t speak much, standing behind veils that allow you to concentrate, contemplate and meditate on your worth, resources and purpose. You examine past behaviors and attitudes. The use of your creative imagination helps you change the past, which then changes the present / future. What would you want to change? Think on these things in quiet solitude.

It will be important to be listened to by those you trust because you will be having thoughts and ideas — unusual, surprising, revelatory

and inventive — that surprise you. We’re told by great teachers to record impressions and dreams. Because over time, reviewing them, we will see a progression of ideas needed for our future direction. It’s also important to share impressions, ideas and dreams with others. Then their purpose is anchored in your life.

You may need, more than usual, to communicate professional business matters. Know your voice has authority and you are seen as the responsible one who accomplishes all tasks. Your words reach many for they have power and influence. You may be asked for information and direction. Your professional opinion matters. You think about your standing in the world. You are not frivolous at this time. It’s good now to develop your next career and professional goals. Never worry.

Your mind is f i l led with imaginations, with visions, great ideas and ideals. You seek to expand your knowledge through study and / or travel. It’s important to find perspective now concerning family life, relationships and friends. It’s important to realize the greater picture and not only the small one based upon desire. Remember the virtue of ahimsa, of doing no harm in any way. Remember to cherish everyone close to you, to create no fear in them, to establish trust and safekeeping. This is your test. You are the steward

As you move about in the world,

in the masses of humanity, you’re able to sense and intuit the many vicissitudes and hidden realities of humanity’s daily life. Being quite sensitive you attempt to be more rational and logical. Both create an intimacy — heart to heart from you to others. Begin conversations on topics that are difficult to communicate. Discuss money, finances, power, sharing and intimacy. Create the new dialogues that will shape humanity’s future.

In all matters you’re able to assess the needs of everyone. Be inclusive, always entertaining opposing views. Your purpose is to harmonize all realities. There are groups trained to do this work. They are called The Harmonizers. As you attempt to communicate through the chaos and conflicts of daily life, you’re called to reach the next level of harmony. This is inner work. Apply it to every situation. You become the ambassador, the diplomat. The savior.

Sixth Street, Corona, Riverside County, CA at public auction, to the highest bidder for cash or check as described below, payable in full at time of sale, all right, title, and interest conveyed to and now held by it under said Deed of Trust, in the property situated in said County and State and as more fully described in the above referenced Deed of Trust. The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 67657 SAN TOMAS ROAD, DESERT HOT SPRINGS, CA, 92240. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. The total amount of the unpaid balance with interest thereon of the obligation secured by the property to be sold plus reason-able estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is $334,792.36. It is possible that at the time of sale the opening bid may be less than the total indebtedness due. In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept cashier’s checks drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on a property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automati-cally entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursu-ant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 1-800-281-8219 or visit this Internet Web site www.recontrustco.com, using the file number assigned to this case 13-0007249. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement in-formation is to attend the scheduled sale.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automati-cally entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if appli-cable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (619)590-1221 or visit the internet website www.dlppllc.com, using the file number assigned to this case 1383672-31.

IVC FILTERINVESTIGATION• IVC (Inferior Vena Cava) filters are implant-ed medical devices, usually by interventional radiologists or sometimes by vascular sur-geons, in order to prevent blood clots from reaching the lungs and heart.

• A significant number of certain types of defective IVC filters can cause serious health risks or death with or without prior symptoms.

• The medical community and U.S. Food and Drug Administration have determined that leaving these filters in place for long periods of time may cause dangerous and potentially deadly complications and that these filters should be removed as soon as protection of blood clots is no longer needed.

• The Inland Empire based medical product liability and consumer class action firm, McCuneWright, LLP, is investigating the dangers of the failure to remove these filters.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on a property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does

not automatically entitle you to free and clear own-ership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 1-800-281-8219 or visit this Internet Web site www.recontrustco.com, using the file number assigned to this case TS No. 13-0007341. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

Janet Napolitano as New UC PresidentOAKLAND - In response to

the news that Homeland Security Secretary and former Arizona Governor Janet Napolitano will become the new President of the University of California system, Kathryn Lybarger, President of the university’s largest union—AFSCME 3299—has issued the following statement:

“While UC staff, students and patients were largely excluded from the secretive process that led to Secretary Janet Napolitano’s appointment, we appreciate her years of public service and congratulate her on becoming

the next President of the University of California. Secretary Napolitano’s tenure at UC begins at a time of skyrocketing student tuition, degraded patient care quality, increased privatization of public university resources, unprecedented debt, unrivaled executive excess, and declining taxpayer trust in top University leadership. While this will be the unfortunate legacy of her predecessor, it is our hope that Secretary Napolitano will work to arrest the UC’s continuing modesty problem, and restore the spirit of cooperation and respect

that’s needed to meet its core public research, academic and health delivery missions in the years to come. If she does, she can be assured that she will find a willing partner in AFSCME 3299.”

AFSCME 3299 represents more than 22,000 Service and Patient Care Technical Workers at the University of California’s 10 campuses and five medical centers. Read our UC Patient Care Whistleblower Report at www.afscme3299.org/putpatientsfirst, or visit us online at www.afscme3299.org.

SKY VALLEY - Bernadette Schwenn, 64, a resident of Fan Canyon in Sky Valley, was arrested on Monday, July 1 on charges of animal cruelty. Schwenn lives in a makeshift shanty with no water, no electricity and a pack of Queensland Heeler dogs.

Last April, Kitty Pallesen, an animal advocate and writer received a call saying something

may have happened to the woman living in Fan Canyon and that her dogs needed help.

“I went up and did not find Bernadette, but found so many dogs with no food or water. I went back every day delivering water and food, not knowing if the woman was dead or alive. I did not know her last name or how to contact her. I started calling different agencies trying to get help for the dogs,” Pallesen

said in an exclusive interview. “The water and food bowls

were always empty. I counted 20 or 22 dogs at the camp near the road, not knowing there were more in an upper camp.

“One night a friend of Schwenn’s stopped by with a jug of water. He had not talked to her, did not know where she was nor had any contact information for her. Before he left, he said he did not understand why something had not been done a long time ago about the situation with the dogs, and that over the years

Schwenn had been personally responsible for ‘hundreds and hundreds’ of dead dogs.

Pallesen called Animal Control, the ASPCA, the Humane Society, PETA, Animal Samaritans, a County Supervisor, “and every place I could think of. Nobody called back.

“Sky Valley Park’s chapel raised money for a bigger water container. I asked the Sky Valley Fire Station if they could deliver water, but their tanks held chemicals added to fight fires and the water is not suitable for

the dogs. “On May 1, I found an older

female (dog) laying out in the sun, too weak to move or drink, breathing hard. I took her to a vet trailing blood to the exam room. She was very emaciated.

“The veterinarian said was too far gone. The only option was to humanely end her suffering. I held her, whispered, and cried for her to the end, just like she was my own dog,” Pallesen said.

This dog’s death was

Local Indian Tribe Defends Water RightsPALM SPRINGS – Jeff L.

Grubbe, Chairman of the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians released the following statement on Tuesday regarding the legal filing from the Coachella Valley Water District and the Desert Water Agency (CVWD/DWA) in response to Tribe’s lawsuit to protect water in the Valley:

“We are reviewing their filing, but what was true when we filed the lawsuit remains true today. We cannot emphasize enough that this is about the future of Coachella Valley’s water supply. We are asking the federal court to

declare our senior water rights so we can be proactive in partnership with Coachella Valley residents and prevent the Desert Water Agency and the Coachella Valley Water District from continuing to overdraft the aquifer and degrade the quality of existing groundwater,” said Grubbe.

“What is most astonishing is the water agencies continue to deny there is any issue with the water. Independent investigations and their own documents attest to the fact that the local water is being depleted and polluted.

“Both the 2002 and

2010 Coachella Valley Water Management Plans noted that ‘(health-based) drinking water impacts’ from the Colorado River recharge are ‘significant’ and that since the 1970s total dissolved solids in the Upper Valley aquifer increased by 278%.

“The CVWD and DWA have adversely affected the quantity and quality of the groundwater in the Coachella Valley for decades and their failed stewardship of the Coachella Valley’s most precious resource has to stop,” he said in a prepared statement.

C H O W C H I L L A a n d CORONA - Prison doctors in California sterilized nearly 150 female inmates during the course of four years without ever obtaining proper approval from the state, a new investigation reveals.

According to The Center for Investigative Reporting, at least 148 women at a pair of state penitentiaries received tubal ligations during the period of

2006 through 2010, yet officials in charge of authorizing those surgeries neglected to sign off in approval.

Since 1994, the sterilization surgery has required the signature of a medical official from the state capital for each and every instance. According to documents obtained by journalists, however, no such records exist.

Dr. Ricki Barnett, the

physician who tracks medical services and costs for the California Prison Health Care Receivership Corp, told the Center that the health care committee responsible for authorizing those surgeries have not seen a single request.

The papers obtained by the investigators suggest something much to the contrary, though, with records indicating that physicians contracted by the state earned $147,460 in local funds to perform those surgeries between 1997 and 2010.

Dr. Daun Martin, the top medical manager in charge of Chowchilla, California’s Valley State Prison from 2005 through 2008, added that she never authorized a single tubal ligation during her tenure at the penitentiary. State contracts suggest at least 60 of those surgeries were performed during that span, though, with state procedures apparently sidestepped in order to sterilize women without the proper paperwork ever being filed at both Valley State and the

California Institution for Women in Corona.

Martin said she and OB-GYN Dr. James Heinrich began looking for ways around the restrictions after researching state procedures, and often relied on recommending inmates go under the knife by way of citing the surgery a “medical emergency.” According to both doctors, they believed that the restrictions that kept inmates from undergoing tubal ligation procedures were

Palm Desert • La Quinta • Indian Wells Edition

LA QUINTA – More than 35,000 ham radio operators set up radio stations at field days last weekend throughout the United States and Canada in the annual demonstration of amateur radio’s instantaneous world-wide communications.

Riverside County Supervisor John J. Benoit joined the Desert R.A.T.S Amateur Radio Club at the La Quinta City Hall Emergency Operations Center located at 78-495 Calle Tampico on Saturday, June 22.

The continuous 24-hour exercise was open to the public, and many toured the community emergency response team trailer and observed the activation of the emergency operations center. Newcomers to ham radio were able to “get on the air” at the GOTA station and make a contact. The event lasted from 11 a.m. Saturday to 11 a.m. Sunday.

“I sincerely appreciate the role ham operators and particularly Amateur Radio

Emergency Services (ARES) and Radio Amateur Civil Emergency Service (RACES) groups play in our emergency preparedness,” said Supervisor John J. Benoit. “I encourage citizens to see the value of their emergency capabilities and come to a field day, a special event that is becoming a part of history.”

Supervisor Benoit has held an advanced class amateur radio operator’s license, WA6IAD, since 1994. He had a significant home ham station for many years and participated in many ham radio events, including field days, from his home station and mobile operations since the 1980s.

Natural catastrophes such as earthquakes, wildfires and floods can quickly turn into disasters when communication is lost. Ham radio operators provide emergency communications for government and civic organizations when normal systems are rendered inoperable or overloaded.

In 1983, a 6.5-magnitude

earthquake cut Coalinga, Calif., off from outside communications. Benoit was one of the many ham operators who stepped into the

void, personally handling several emergency messages emanating from the community.

Desert Businesses Clamor to Attract Same Sex WeddingsBy Jackie Devereaux

PALM SPRINGS – The U.S. Supreme Court handed down a historic ruling on Wednesday, Jun. 26 to grant same sex marriages across the nation. In their ruling on DOMA and California’s Proposition 8, the justices overturned a previous lower court ruling which declared same sex marriage unconstitutional.

Within minutes of the landmark ruling, local hoteliers and wedding planners scrambled to promote Palm Springs as a premiere wedding destination.

“The Supreme Court’s

historic action today overturning DOMA and dismissing the appeal of California’s Proposition 8, clearing the way for same-sex marriage in our state is a huge victory for the LGBT community. This is about equal rights and I am gratified that the court has recognized that we are all the same,” said Palm Springs Mayor Steve Pougnet.

“My husband Christopher and I look forward to same-sex weddings commencing again in the state of California – and rest assured the City of Palm Springs will continue to be a destination committed to celebrating the

institution of marriage, both heterosexual and same-sex,” Pougnet said in a prepared statement

“Riverside County is prepared to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples and record their marriages immediately after the anticipated direction is received from the state and the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. Hopefully that day will be here soon,” said Supervisor John J. Benoit.

“The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled on the matter of Hollingsworth v. Perry, making

The nation is mourning the deaths of 19 firefighters who perished outside Yarnell Hill, Arizona after the blaze ravaged the town forcing people to evacuate.

An estimated 250 homes are destroyed by the fast-moving fire that has charred more than 9,000 acres. State forestry officials are predicting the fire will continue to grow this week, as erratic winds and high heat fueling the blaze

in an area has not had a fire in 40 years.

Wickenburg Community Hospital is treating at least eight firefighters who were among 22 injured in the line of duty. One of the surviving firefighters reportedly sustained burns to 75 percent of his body.

Among the dead was Eric Marsh, 43-year-old superintendent of the Granite Mountain Hotshots, an elite group

of firefighters. Also killed were: Andrew Ashcraft, 29; Robert Caldwell, 23; Travis Carter, 31; Dustin Deford, 24; Christopher MacKenzie, 30; Grant McKee, 21; Sean Misner, 26; Scott Norris, 28; Wade Parker, 22; John Percin, 24; Anthony Rose, 23; Jesse Steed, 36; Joe Thurston, 32; Travis Turbyfill, 27; William Warneke, 25; Clayton Whitted, 28; Kevin Woyjeck, 21; and Garret Zuppiger, 27.

A tribute to the firefighters grows outside Prescott Fire Station No. 7. Flowers, American flags and signs -- including those

reading “19 Great guys gone -- you will be missed” and “Prescott 19 forever in our hearts” -- were placed. The tokens also included 19 bottles of water, arranged in a circle.

The fire is quickly reaching “Type 1” status, which the most critical level, and is currently burning with zero containment. It is estimated that 500 firefighters are now battling the flames. Federal authorities sent additional forces to help tackle the disaster including numerous water carrying aircrafts.

In addition to the 500

firefighters, including two Type 2 crews, three Type 1 crews, and four engines, were on the scene, officials said. Three Type 1 crews, seven helicopters, two air tankers, four single engine air tankers, and multiple engines and air tankers were ordered.

Earlier Sunday, 50 homes in the Buckhorn, Model Creek and Double A Bar Ranch areas some 85 miles from Phoenix were ordered to evacuate. By afternoon the evacuation order reached residents in the Peeples Valley area and in the town of

attorney for one of the men charged with allegedly tampering with evidence in a Vanderbilt rape case said his client, Joseph Dominick Quinzio, 20, of Palm Desert, received a video of the alleged rape through his phone as a text message.

Criminal Defense Attorney Brett Greenfield with the Los Angeles law firm of Kenner and Greenfield admitted that his client, Quinzio, “saw the video

and became very disturbed.”Quinzio, along with Miles

Finley, 19, of Bermuda Dunes are friends of Brandon Vandenburg, 20, of Indio. The three young men played football together at Xavier College Preparatory High School in Palm Desert.

Vandenburg was arrested for five counts of rape and two counts of sexual battery against an unconscious 21-year-old female Vanderbilt student. Vandenburg is also charged with videotaping the female victim

and passing on those videos to others. The alleged rape and video tapping took place on June 23 in Tennessee.

Greenfield said the video was sent to his client. Quinzio and Finley both are charged with tampering with electronic evidence and scheduled to appear in separate courtrooms on Tuesday, Aug. 20 for extradition hearings.

“He’s (Quinzio) being accused of somehow tampering with or destroying evidence, and

nothing could be further than the truth,” Greenfield said.

Nashville, Tennessee Metro police traveled to California in July to interview both Quinzio and Finley about their involvement with the cover up.

Greenfield said his client was so disturbed by the video, that he went to the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department on Friday, Aug. 16 and reported everything he knew.

“Doing the right thing was what prompted him to go to the sheriff,” Greenfield said, knowing an investigation was going on.

Greenfield said only when

Quinzio showed up to talk to investigators did he find out that there was a warrant for his arrest in Tennessee.

“He (Quinzio) was simply sent a text message, unwanted, unsolicited, out of the blue, put in a terrible situation by someone who he thought was a friend,” Greenfield said.

Quinzio is being held without bail at the Southwest Detention Center. Finley is being held at the Larson Justice Center in Indio without bail and is also expected to appear in court Tuesday. Both young men are

Tampering with Evidence Indictments

By Jackie Devereaux

Emin Bernd Alihodic was born on July 21, 1951 in Siegen, Germany and immigrated to the United States sometime in the late 1980s. Alihodic left behind two children and an ex-wife. His son, Jens (Alihodic) Luschnt, 35, came to Palm Springs on Monday, Aug. 12 to search for his biological father with only a

newspaper article describing how his dad was rescued twice off Mount San Jacinto on Feb. 9, 2009 and then again on May 13, 2010.

Jens, who speaks little or no English, was adopted by his step-father at the age of 10 and only knows a little about his biological father from stories his mother told him through the years.

“I’d like to know more

about him. How’s he been living all these years,” the younger Alihodic said through a German/English interpreter.

Jens said he started looking for his father about a year and a half ago after meeting the love of his life, Karin Huebers. He and Karin want to start their own family soon and through her urging, they traveled to Palm Springs to search for his biological father.
