the New Police Chief on Sept 24th in front of the Cathedral City Civic Center. Cathedral City police officers spent the evening talking to several hundred people that came to meet the brand new Chief and view the police department vehicles. For some officers, this was their day off that they used to participate in

this event. There were Men and Women officers along with police cadets to speak to the visitors about the Police Department.

Officers Larry Sanfillippo and Charlie Siquelros showed Zachary and Aiden Siquelros how to wear protective armor and how heavy and hot it is. Kids were shown the inside of the police car that carried a lot of the gear needed by police

officers. Visitors got to inspect the Operations Center Van that is used by officers during raids and crime scenes. Other children got to sit on the motorcycle with officers for photos.

Visitors were treated to lemonade, pizza and cookies from local businesses like Capizzi’s and Nicolino’s. The new Police Chief was in the food area speaking to everyone

who wanted to see and talk to him about his new role as Chief. The children seemed so excited to see the officers and talk to them. This is a way for children to see officers as friends rather than enemies. There was even a sticker and activity booklet, Police Officers Are Your Friends, for the kids.

Officer Brian Barkley brought his K-9 dog, Jag, to show the

families attending and answered questions about the K-9 program and his dog. He explained the remote that tells him about his dog that can open a police car door to let the dog out. It alerts him about the heat of the car to protect the animal and also gives commands to the dog. People were very interested in the dog.

Joshua Tree music festivals are intimate, community-centric, artistically infused and highly participatory affairs. There are two each year with the 10th annual fall festival October 8-11.

This October’s line up has 27 bands and features the hip swaying positive sounds of Xavier Rudd & the United Nations (AUS), the Brooklyn-based, horn-filled freight train of a funkestra that is Turkuaz, the rollicking ‘Ozark Stomp’ of the Ben Miller Band, Daby Toure’s (Senegal) soulful global sonic mixture, the raw funk of Ronkat Spearman’s Katdelic, steamy tropical beats by Boogat (Argentina), the soul-

tastic stylings of Chali 2na (J5) and the Funk Hunters (Canada), global superstar DJs Marques Wyatt and Adam Freeland (UK), and the belting rock and roll anthems of Lee Gallagher & the Hallelujah.

Twenty e ight ar t is ts representing more than 10 countries, with just one band live at a time so you don’t miss a beat. An eclectic line-up, artfully sequenced throughout the weekend for maximum impact.

Te Joshua Tree Music Festivals capture the DIY funkiness of the high desert, where turning rusted junk into striking art and old trailers meld into stages are de rigeur forms of behavior.

Music lovers will find a mini-Burning Man style music bowl inside a shaded stretch of campground on the outskirts of the famous national park. This family-friendly global music experience focuses on up-and-coming artists with a penchant for picking about-to-break out.

JTMF is produced by a family of friends and funsters convinced that music is the soul of life, and that art enriches and saves lives. The festival is constructed around one music bowl with two alternating stages.

“It’s the combination of the magical setting, the music and the people that leads to emphatic

moments. We’ve created a space that enables folks to spend more time together with the ability to not miss any of the music.” Those ‘shared experiences’ are where you find the magic,” said promoter Barnett English.

Fans rate JTMF as one of the few festivals that truly caters to the entire family with the addition of Kidsville, an action-packed area filled with activities for children.

There is no ‘nosebleed’ section, white tents, long lines or yellow-jacketed security details. Instead we find instant community with nonstop interaction as music lovers gather under 30,000 feet of billowing shade cloths flying over the stages and audience. This intimate musical affair is splashed with golden sunsets and star-filled desert night skies.

Palm Springs Gay Men’s Chorus (PSGMC) is elated to announce its 2015-2016 season of concerts that will appeal to a wide audience with each performance anticipated to sell out. In typical PSGMC form, the first concert of the season will be Brassy, Classy, Sassy highlighting a variety of classic holiday choral music along with a few whimsical selections.

a Sound Investment” with the help of several generous donors including Jeremy Hobbs, Western Wind Foundation and Harold Matzner who both made matching grants of $7,500 in addition to a $2,500 grant from chorus member Alan McPhail. Through all of their outstanding support, the PSGMC was able to invest in a brand new state-of-the-art sound system that will allow every note to be heard. This will give the chorus flexibility to use the new sound system for our on-location concerts as well as our off-site special events. With nearly 100 chorus members, we will be able to showcase and accentuate those voice like never before,” remarked Douglas Wilson, Artistic Director, PSGMC.

Story and Photos by Pat Krause Over 15 local firefighters

and COD cadets worked at the Old Spaghetti Factory serving customers just to get tips that were donated to a charity.

The firefighters spent the lunch and dinner hours at the Restaurant serving food and drinks to all the customers. Many of the customers came just to support the charity and help the firefighters with large tips for their excellent service. I am sure that some of the firefighters from local cities

spent their day off to do this, and they were assisted by local College of the Desert Cadets to help out.

The Tip-a-Firefighter, fundraising event benefited the Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital. All the tips the firefighters earned went to the Hospital.

The Old Spaghetti Factory opened their doors to this event and is a big hit with customers. The Spaghetti Factory is on Hwy 111 in Rancho Mirage.

Big Hearts sponsored the

event for Little Hearts of the Desert Guild.

The firefighters brought two fire trucks to be seen in the parking lot so customers would know this was the restaurant to go to for lunch or dinner.

Some of the firefighters came from local cities like Cathedral City, Rancho Mirage, Riverside County station 71, Loma Linda Fire station and Coachella to name a few. This is always a fun event for both customers and firefighters.

By Pam PriceThe rotunda of the

Cathedral City Civic Center’s rotunda was transformed into an elegant evening in Austria on September 24 for the opening reception honoring artist, Baroness Ilona Von Ronay. The Baroness lives part-time in Cathedral City and at her ancestral castle in Steyr, Austria.

The Portraits by Baroness I lona Von Ronay event featured paintings from her collection, which include commissions from personalities from around the world.

Peggy Cravens, a friend of the Baroness said, “Ilona has had an illustrious career as a

portrait artist, having painted many notables such as George Soros and the late Frederick Lowe, composer of some of the world’s most successful musicals, such as My Fair Lady, Camelot and Brigadoon. Ilona received her first commission to do a portrait at the tender age of 14. She studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna and has had 21 one-woman shows around the world taking her to Morocco, Australia, New Zealand and London. Ilona’s innately creative nature has also made her one of the most respected aficionados of fine music. During her summers at the family castle in Steyr,

Austria, which has been in the family for three centuries, Ilona and her equally talented mother, Ann Heavy give eight ‘wonderful’ concerts at the castle during July and August.”

With that in mind, Sue Townsley and Pamela Price, co chairpersons of the event, transformed the Cathedral City rotunda reception into an Austrian experience right down to the authentic apple strudel served with vanilla sauce prepared by Hector and Petra Salvatierra of Bonta Restaurant nearby. Mrs. Salvatierra, also an Austrian, said she used a cherished family recipe and that “the strudel is also on Bonta’s

dessert menu!” Thanks to Alan Carvalho,

The Sound of Music and Strauss’s waltzes filled the rotunda while a pre-taped interview with the Baroness filmed at her home surrounded by her favorite portraits fascinated guests.

The Portraits by Baroness Ilona Von Ronay will be on display at Cathedral City Civic Center, 68-700 Avenida Lalo Guierro through December 8, Monday through Thursdays, until 6PM.

Story and Photos by Pat Krause There is a big Frank Sinatra

Centennial Celebration under way. Sunnylands opened its center to launch the celebration with free movies. The first of three movies to be shown on the velvety lawn at the Sunnylands center was, Oceans 11, with the Rat Pack, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr. Peter Lawford and Joey Bishop starring from 1960.

The evening started with Music by Frank Sinatra playing as guests e n t e r e d t h e Gardens. A huge screen was set up, and it was like the old drive-in movie feel where guests brought chairs, blankets, drinks and coolers full of cold refreshments for the hot night. It was warmer than usual, but everyone was so thrilled to see this free movie in such a beautiful setting. The

movie started at 7 just as the sun went down.

Sunnylands was where Frank and Barbara Sinatra were married in 1976. Guests got to view the Sunnylands Center as well as see a vintage movie. There was plenty of parking for the several hundred guests that took advantage of this free movie. I talked with one couple that was so excited as they are

only here for a week and got to be there. They plan on touring the main house on their next visit to the Desert.

There will be two more free movies at Sunnylands during this celebration. October 2nd the film will be, High Society, with Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby and Grace Kelly. On

Friday October 9th, the film will be, From Here to Eternity that made Frank Sinatra a Star in Hollywood movies and one of his best performances. This is another vintage Sinatra movie from 1953 and a chance to see it on a bigger screen rather than a smaller TV and in a fun setting with family and friends.

If you decide to see “These Paper Bullets,!” subtitled “A Modish Ripoff of William Shakespeare,” I will try to help you “Brush Up On Your Shakespeare” by providing a brief description of the cast of characters and action; otherwise, if I may paraphrase a quote a from “Macbeth” you might conclude that the evening was “…full of sound and fury signifying nothing.” Interspersing Shakespeare’s original language with more contemporary words, Rolan Jones’ overwritten script has moved the shenanigans from the familiar setting of Messina to London, during the hey day of the swinging mod era, when women wanted to look like Twiggy, wore miniskirts with go-go boots, topped with mod or cropped hairstyles. Augmenting “the look,” was an abundance of drugs, with Quaaludes and Vodka chasers being the drugs of choice. Stir in lots of sex, a Beetles look-alike band named

“The Quartos,” playing lots of catchy rock ‘n’ roll songs written by Billie Joe Armstrong, and you’ll have an overall picture of what is taking place on that crowded stage. Directed by Jackson Gay, a lot of the frenetic, hard-to-follow craziness in takes place in the Messina Hotel, which is owned by Leo Messina, (Nick Ullett.) His daughter Higgy (Ariana Venturi,) is habitually stoned. She is in love with Claude (Damon Daunn,) a Quartos band member and popular teenage idol. The other musicians are Pedro (James Barry,) who comes up with some questionable schemes, Balth (Lucas Papaelias,) and Ben (Justin Kirk,) a cynical former solder whose fans throw themselves at his feet begging to have his children. Screaming girls are depicted through giant projections designed by Nicholas Hussong, with other huge projections supporting the current on-stage action.

Every Shakespeare play has a villain and in this one his name is Don Best (Adam O’Byrne.) Don is really pissed off as he was fired as the band’s drummer and is now relegated to the position of “roadie.” To get even, he concocts a diabolical scheme to sabotage the upcoming nuptials between Higgy and Claude by doctoring a photograph showing Higgy in a sex act with Boris (Rod McLachlan.) The woman in that photograph is actually her “friend” Ulcie (Keira Naughton.) In a nasty act of vengeance, Don ceremoniously presents the photo at Higgy and Claude’s highly publicized nuptials, at which point Claude walks out of the wedding in disgust. In an effort to find out who was behind this terrible plot, dad tells everyone that Higgy became despondent and died but in reality, she has locked herself away in her room, wailing continuously for several weeks.Add to the mix Bea (Nicole Parker,) a successful fashion designer who has very protective instincts towards her stoner cousin Higgy. Bea is secretly in love with her former lover Ben, who is basically commitment phobic. Veiling their real feelings for each other, the

repartee between them is hostile, but comic. Not to worry, though, as truelove prevails in the end. Rounding out the list of zany characters are the inept, bungling Scotland Yard detectives. The squad consists of Mr. Berry (Greg Stuhr,) who like Mrs. Malaprop,* fractures the English language; Mr. Cake (Tony Mann;) Mr. Urges/Reverend (Brad Heberlee;) and Mr. Crumpet (Christopher Geary as well as the Queen in drag.) In order to find out what everyone is doing, these Inspector Clouseau-type nitwits plant bugged lampshades in the hotel to find out what everyone is up to. Reporting on the activities of “The Quartos” is Paulina Noble (Kate Blumberg,) an obnoxious, but funny BBC reporter who delivers a comical blow-by-blow description of the antics, including the wedding disaster. With a not so subtle reference to The Beatles, when the wedding between Higgy and Claude finally takes place, the groom asks for the “ring-o,” and presumably everyone lives happily ever after or in the words of the Bard, All’s Well That Ends Well.” The production values are excellent with the revolving set by Michael Yeargan creating

the Messina Hotel, recording studio, Bea’s dress shop, or a stage for “live”performances by “The Quartos.” Jessica Ford’s costumes capture the look of the freewheeling 60s. Music director Julie McBride and Broken Chord’s sound design and incidental music, adds to the overall musical content of the play, which is the most satisfying component. Paul Whitaker’s lighting design, drenched the stage in cotton-candy colors and like that confection, this production leaves you with an enjoyable sugary aftertaste, but not much substance.*A character made famous for her usage of incorrect words that almost sound the same. It is also referred to as a “Dogberryism,” stemming from a character named Dogberry in Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing.

By Desert Star StaffA child’s development at an

early age sets the stage for future success, and interactive play can have a big impact. Not only does it expand a child’s imagination and social skills, but it can also help develop gross and fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and hand and finger strength.

With success at play, children not only build muscle skills, but also cognitive skills that lay the foundation for aptitude in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. And the best part? Parents can easily provide these benefits during daily routines.

1. Mealtime: Allowing your child to be a little helper in the kitchen not only teaches some meal preparation skills, but also helps develop motor skills. Good for hand and arm strengthening, your little chef can help smash potatoes, knead dough, stir foods and more.

2. Playtime: Playtime is as much of a daily activity as bedtime or mealtime, and it’s an important part of your child’s day. Look for toys that are fun and also help children develop the skills they need, such as the Step2 WonderBall Fun House, an interactive playhouse that

helps toddlers develop hand-eye coordination with put-and-take play using included colorful balls. Features like tube mazes and an open play concept will enhance your little creative player’s imagination in no time.

3. Bath Time: If you’ve ever had to wrestle your child into the bathtub, you know bath time isn’t always enjoyable. There are all sorts of bath time toys available, but some of the best ones are items you already have in your home. To work on fine motor skills, try including household objects into your child’s bath routine: plastic cups for pouring

water back and forth, strainers from your kitchen and any toys that promote a squeezing motion. Even the act of wringing out a wet washcloth can help develop a child’s hand muscles.

4. Bedtime: Many parents can relate to the struggle of getting children to bed. Make bedtime a time of day that your child looks forward to, by bringing imagination to life with a fun and comfortable bed like the Step2 Hot Wheels Toddler-to-Twin Race Car Bed. It provides an easy transition from a crib to a toddler bed and encourages your little race car driver to enjoy when

it’s time to go to sleep. Toddlers can tap the car headlights on and off, and use the race car tracks located on each side of the bed to race their favorite Hot Wheels cars.

W h e n i n c o r p o r a t e d throughout the day, interactive play can be beneficial for both parent and child. Small, but meaningful, everyday tasks can help your child develop and grow. Continue to have fun and encourage your child along the way as you watch his or her confidence and skills increase.Statepoint

Trick-or-treating may be the standard Halloween tradition for most American families, but the holiday has branched out extensively over the last decade.

Today, Americans spend over one billion dollars visiting Halloween-themed attractions. Where are they going, and what are the best activities for your family? The experts at Hauntworld.com are offering some spooky answers in this

ultimate fall to-do list.Farm Fun: Many farms offer

tons of fall activities ideal for families with young children, including picking the perfect carving pumpkin, finding your way out of a corn maze and drinking homemade apple cider. Other fun activities include pony rides, hay mazes, non-spooky hayrides, petting zoos and even shooting pumpkin cannons.

Ghost Tours: Ghost hunting

television shows have really increased the popularity in finding haunts and eerie tours. Learn more about your local area’s spooky history by taking family or out of town guests to haunted mansions, cemeteries, prisons and more.

Zombie Runs: What could be scarier than a 5K run? One with zombies of course! Zombie runs are a good time for the whole family, providing a fun reason to get kids and teens moving, using obstacle courses, contests, prizes and more as incentives.

Haunted Hayrides: Hayrides can be as sophisticated as a Hollywood movie, complete with fog machines and lights. Some have even adopted new twists. For example, on a zombie paintball hayride, guests go on a high adrenaline adventure, hunting and shooting zombies with paintballs. Haunted hayrides make guests and especially smaller kids feel

safe as they ride in groups. Home Haunts: Americans are

now decorating their yards and homes into spooky graveyards with high tech lights, animations and more. Some homeowners take it further by also decorating their home’s interiors and creating mazes in the garage or backyard. Finding a spooky home haunt or neighborhood near you can be a great Halloween activity to do if you’re on a budget. For tips and tricks on haunting your own house, visit www.hauntedhousesupplies.com.

Escape Rooms: Escape rooms offer an immersive and interactive experience like none other. These Halloween-themed attractions involve working together to solve puzzles and riddles in order to escape a room in under an hour.

Haunted Houses: Haunted houses come in all shapes and sizes, ranging from three-dimensional black light

attractions to haunted trails to major scream parks. Haunted houses also change regularly, so it may be very different from visit to visit. Today, most haunted attractions don’t rely as much on blood and guts as they do on interactive special effects, sophisticated costumes, story lines and computer-generated imagery. To celebrate the scary side of Halloween, get the family together for an unforgettable night filled with fun and screams.

To find America’s scariest haunted houses, trickiest corn mazes, spookiest zombie runs and every pumpkin patch, ghost tour and escape room near you, you can review a comprehensive directory of these attractions at www.Hauntworld.com.

While tradition never gets old, novel Halloween activities provide different thrills than a standard trick-or-treat trip around the block. Source KMIR

The musical version of “Cinderella” delighted audiences of all ages when it opened at the Ahmanson Theatre early in the new year. This was followed by the live-action Disney film “Cinderella,” now available on Blu-ray and DVD. And the good news is, this beloved fairytale princess will be back in Los Angeles in October when St. Petersberg’s world-renowned Mariinsky Ballet and Orchestra (formerly the Kirov Ballet) opens the 12th season of Glorya Kaufman Presents Dance at the Music Center with the Southern California premiere of Alexi Ratmansky’s “Cinderella.“ There will be five performances only, October 8-11.

“Cinderella,” first performed in March 2002, catapulted the choreographer onto the world stage. In his ballet, Ratmansky took a fresh look at the classic story, imbuing his

work with vibrant choreography, feisty humor and a glamorous 1930s twist. He combined the grand spectacle of ballet from Soviet Russia with innovative choreography that has a contemporary edge, presenting audiences with endearing characters and a sense of sophistication. In his ballet Cinderella is portrayed as a lonely dreamer and her stepmother is depicted as a vicious, tantrum-prone social climber. The choreography builds to a pas de deux of aching beauty and tenderness between Cinderella and her prince. The performances are enhanced by spectacular sets and costumes that portray the glamour of a modern 20th century world..

Tickets for the Mariinsky Ballet and Orchestra’s production of “Cinderella” start at $34 and are available at the Dorothy Chandler Box Office at 135 North

Grand Ave., downtown L.A. or by calling (213) 972-0711 and online at musiccenter.org/Cinderella. : Ticket holders can get a behind-the-scenes perspective by

joining Glorya Kaufman at the Music Center for DANCETALKS featuring a discussion one hour before curtain.

Performance times are: Thurs. Oct.8 and Fri. Oct. 9 at 7:30 p.m., Sat. Oct.10 at 2:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. and Sun. Oct.11 at 2:00 p.m.

Mystery “Arthur & George,” the world’s greatest crime writer, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, turns detective. Martin Clunes (“Doc Martin”) stars as Sir Arthur, creator of Sherlock Holmes, who is outraged by what he feels is a great injustice to an Anglo-Indian solicitor. When the man’s plight is brought to his attention he decides to get to the truth on his own, using the methods employed by his fictional super sleuth, Sherlock.

The story begins shortly after

the death of Sir Arthur’s wife. He is unable to concentrate on writing and seems adrift until his personal secretary and friend (Charles Edwards “Downton Abbey”) brings him a letter from a young solicitor named George, asking if Sir Arthur could help him clear his name. George has served several years in prison, accused of killing and mutilating animals. When Sir Arthur meets the earnest young man he is convinced of his innocence..

This thoroughly engrossing three hour drama, adapted from Julian Barnes’ novel, is based on actual events. Filled with twists and turns, this true-life mystery will keep you guessing till the very end. The program contains material that may not be appropriate for all viewers since it does involve some scenes of animal cruelty, so viewer discretion is advised.

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 PROP-ERTY 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.

By Jack LyonsTheatre and Film Critic

The new buzzword in 21st century arts is “Diversity”. It’s been a long time in coming but it’s finally arrived. The world of entertainment has embraced diversity for some time, however, the full force of the movement hasn’t been seen or felt by audiences on the theatrical stages of America until recently.

The venerable and renowned Pasadena Playhouse (the official State Theatre of California) under the 18 year artistic leadership of Sheldon Epps, has long been a leader in diversity, as witnessed by the creative artists who stage their productions and in its casting of their performers. Artistry, quality, and high professional standards have been hallmarks of Pasadena Playhouse productions for a long time.

The current comedy production “Real Women Have Curves”, written by Josefina Lopez is skillfully directed by playhouse associate artistic director Seema Sueko. It’s a delightful comedy that shows off the indomitable spirit, grit, and power of women in our society, who when they bond, can do anything as songwriter Helen Reddy’s anthem of the 1960’s women’s movement proclaimed, “I Am Woman … If I have to, I can do anything… I am invincible”.

The story set in a tiny sewing factory in East Los Angeles in 2015, celebrates Latina power and Latina women’s bodies. The crowd-pleasing production stars four full-figured and one thin diet-pill abuser, actors in “Real Women Have Curves”. It’s a touching look into the lives of five undocumented Mexican garment workers in Los Angeles struggling to capture just a tiny

piece the American Dream.Estela (Cristina Frias) is

the owner of a sewing shop just trying to pay her bills and grow her business to a point where she can branch out from the darkness of fear from government officials deporting her, to a point where she can become a legal tax paying business with a future.

Estela’s four employees: Carmen, the eldest and the group’s inspirational leader is played by the wonderful Blanca Araceli. Pancha, is introspectively and guardedly played by Ingrid Oliu. Rosali, the diet-pill abuser (her way of controlling her weight) is fearlessly portrayed by Diana DeLaCruz, and the young high school graduate and budding writer Ana, who keeps a diary of her days working with the other ladies, is nicely played by Santana Dempsey. The talented cast is a case study in ensemble performance generosity.

It’s been a blistering triple digit week in LA and Estela is slightly behind in her schedule

to deliver 100 plus garments to her customer by morning. When a power failure hits the neighborhood not only does the temperature in the small factory immediately begin to rise, the tempers of the ladies rise accordingly. With no power no work can be completed. There will be strangers, electrical workers, and police in the area trying to get the power back on line. Fear of deportation and separation is a constant worry in the garment industry.

For a good deal of the time the ladies fuss, wait and gossip. Gossip never goes out of style. Subject matter varies, but eventually the discussion of marriage and men rears its head. Maybe it’s the heat, but the ladies begin to open up concerning their male-dominated culture and its views about the role of Latina women in it. The subject of body types and size measurements surface. As way of laying out the elephant in the room for discussion, the women begin to disrobe down to bras, panties

and girdles revealing their varying sizes and weight distributions. The audience (80% women) at first, gasp, then begin to applaud and then break into laughter and more applause. It’s a bold and empowering moment for the actors and a liberating moment for the audience. The entire scene takes no more than three or four minutes but its impact is enormous and cathartic.

Prior to the curtain I spot stand-up comedian, actress, writer, and TV producer Cristela Alonzo giving an on-camera interview to a local Los Angeles TV station. We briefly discussed her 2014 ABC- TV show called “Cristela” which she created and starred in. Then she shared some of her feelings about the “Real… Women production “… our Latino community has been in the dark for so long, I want to thank Sheldon Epps for his support and his passion concerning diversity at the playhouse. We (Latinos) don’t need to go to New York City to have success; we can do it

right here in Southern California” adding, “Dreams come without an expiration date. My advice is be authentic. Have no regrets. I like being authentic.” When I ask what her next play is about, she breaks into a wide smile and with twinkling eyes says ‘Real Men Cook and Wash Dishes’; quickly adding she’s just joking.

Being authentic is certainly in evidence when it comes to the creative team led by director Sueko in delivering a wonderfully picture-perfect design space by Scenic Designer David F. Weiner, with Lights designed by Josh Epstein, and a sound track by the ever-reliable Cricket S. Myers; are first rate. Also, Casting Director Julia Flores always seems to come up with winning actors when she’s on the job.

“Real Women Have Curves” is a terrific production that everyone should see and enjoy performs at the Pasadena Playhouse, and runs through October 4, 2015.

A bold and delightful comedy scores at Pasadena Playhouse

Aztecs Football Waits Nine Years for Victory and Flag By Dan Marinelli

LA QUINTA – A lot has happened over the last nine years but what has become a constant throughout the previous almost-decade is the La Quinta Blackhawks football team’s dominance over its Desert Valley League rival Palm Desert Aztecs.

The Victory Flag is awarded to the winner between the Aztecs and the Blackhawks – and La Quinta, as well as co-dominate the league for the majority of the decade, has brought home the symbolic flag each of the last nine years.

2015, however, has a very different feel for Blackhawks head coach Dan Armstrong, who found his kids entering last Friday’s game against his long-time cook-street enemies with the worst record his team has had (0-4) in at least 10 years. Needless say, recapturing the flag would not be a cakewalk

for the defending 2014 DVL champions – what a difference a year makes.

The Blackhawks did lose the best running back in the DVL last year, Chris Toribio, but Armstrong loses talent every year and manages to reload for the following season. Unlike 2014 and before, this is different.

U n c h a r a c t e r i s t i c a l l y, the Blackhawks have been outscored in the first four games 147-33 and the Aztecs – who have not beaten their rival in nine seasons – could smell the blood in the water. Not to mention, La Quinta was without a consistent running game, which, along with a solid defense has been Armstrong’s quite successful coaching M.O.

Even with all the trials and tribulations of a down season, it was the flag game, a flag that is a symbol of pride and success the Blackhawks had possessed

since President George W. Bush was in office.

A game that with all that has gone wrong for the defending champs this year, maybe, just maybe, the ‘Hawks would find the motivation to turn things around and salvage the rest of the season, starting with recapturing the Victory Flag.

Unlike last year’s 49-14 route, the 2015 game finished fairly close, with the Aztecs putting nine-years worth of frustrations into the first two quarters. In addition to a field goal and two Beau Berryhill rushing touchdowns, Brian Devlin hurled a 28-yard touchdown pass to Dakota Romero giving Palm Desert the 24-7 halftime lead.

Sensing the lethargy from La Quinta, the Aztecs could almost touch the Victory Flag but with a whole half left to play, there was way too much time to celebrate – despite the lopsided score.

In the third quarter, the Aztecs were finally outscored 7-3. Andrew Garcia tossed a 55-yard pass to Justin Anderson, yet the Blackhawks were still trailing 27-14 with justa quarter. In the past, odd things have happened to flip the script in this entertaining high school football rivalry. This year would not feature any late game heroics or dramatic theatrics. Nope. Garcia managed to hurl one more 73-yard touchdown to Anderson to bring the score to within seven, but that would be the last time the Blackhawks saw the end zone.

The Aztecs won the game 27-20, took over the Victory Flag from La Quinta High School Principal Rebecca Cook and most importantly, the bragging rights for the entire year.

“A lot of frustration, a lot of close losses, and we finally got over the hump,” Aztecs head

coach Pat Blackburn said in an interview. “I’m honored, but these guys did it.”

Now that the rivalry game is over, both teams and focus on the remainder of the season. Through one DVL game, the Aztecs (1-0 DVL, 2-3 Overall) and Blackhawks (0-1 DVL, 0-5 Overall) are both still in position to win or tie for the league championship. Granted, for the Blackhawks to win it all, it will take some help from other teams.

The Blackhawks are off to their worst start in years but there is still time for them to make something of 2015 and at the very least, play to improve for next season. La Quinta travels to Indio High School next week to take on the Rajahs at 7 pm. The Aztecs have a bye week this week and will return to action on Oct. 9 against the Rajahs at Palm Desert High school.
