Fitzgerald‘s ‘The Great Gatsby’ on DVD

By Theda Kleinhans Reichman Director Baz Luhrmann’s vision for F. Scott Fitzgerald’s masterpiece, “The Great Gatsby” is a work of art that brings the bawdy, gaudy roaring 20’s to life on the silver screen. The sets and costumes are amazing and oh the jewels--fabulous diamond necklaces, pins and pearls, oh my. The music is basically period with thrilling music by Gershwin and other composers of the era throughout with some modern musical touches skillfully blended in.

Luhrmann’s presentation is like a cinematic opera with sweeping music, romantic love and betrayal ending in tragedy.

This is not surprising, however, since the director gave us an exquisite modernized version of Puccini’s “La Boehme” on stage and a musical dramatization of “Moulin Rouge” on film. Now the screen explodes once again with “The Great Gatsby” starring Leonardo DiCaprio in the title role as Jay Gatsby, with Tobey Maguire as Nick Carraway along with Joel Edgerton and Carey Mulligan as Tom and Daisy Buchanan.

As the film begins, writer Nick Carraway has come from the Midwest to the glittering world of New York City in the

spring of 1922. It is an era of glittering jazz, bootleg kingpins and loosening morals. As Nick tries to go after his own American dream he winds up living next door to a mysterious, partygiving millionaire, Jay Gatsby.

He also lives across the bay from his cousin, Daisy and her philandering blue-blooded husband, Tom Buchanan.

Soon Nick is drawn into the world of the super-rich, a world filled with extravagant parties, love affairs and deceit and like a good opera, the story ends in ultimate tragedy. As Nick watches the romance between

Freedom of the Press is Not Free Starving dogs scramble for food and survival in Sky Valley. Photo courtesy of Animal Protectorates

By Jackie Devereaux Despite the fact that our founding fathers guaranteed the Freedom of Speech in the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, we are not protected. Look at the Edward Snowden whistle blower case and you’ll see the government persecution of him for leaking the NSA cyber spying. People have lost their jobs, homes and security for whistle blowing, and it’s more rampant now than ever before.

It happened to Desert Star Weekly columnist Art Kunkin back in the 1960-70s when he was the founder and publisher of the Los Angeles Free Press.

The Nixon administration issued a Black List of performers, writers, actors and comedians the government deemed

“anti-American.” Even the Smothers Brothers were on that list! Kunkin was prosecuted because of his opposition to the war in Vietnam. Kunkin spent more than a million dollars defending himself and the Freedom of Speech.

History repeats itself.

Snowden lives in exile because he exposed our government violating the law.

He sought exile in several countries who were warned that if they helped him, they would be cut off from U.S. aide.

I am embroiled in my own whistle blower case since reporting the horrible situation about the Dog Death Camp in Sky Valley. Hundreds if not thousands of dogs died allegedly at the hands of Mary Bernadette Schwenn, 64, a

woman known to be longtime hoarder of animals. Local authorities, including animal control in Riverside and San Bernardino counties, along with the sheriff’s department knew about Schwenn’s hoarding as early as 1996, but nothing much was done about it.

She was issued a citation in Indian Wells in Oct. 1996 for hoarding dogs, and again issued citations in Pioneertown for hoarding up to 40 dogs inside a house near Pappy & Harriet’s. Then she moved to a lean-to, shanty in Sky Valley living in conditions most reasonable people would consider uninhabitable with no electricity or running water.

She travels by hitchhiking along Dillon Road relying on the mercy and pity of neighbors.

Unfortunately, this woman’s physical condition has deteriorated to the point where she must use a walker making her unable to adequately care for her pack of Queensland Heeler dogs. None of the dogs are neutered or spayed and allowed to breed, then die in the desert heat. Luckily, through the compassion of local animal lover Kitty Pallesen, I became aware of this situation and took action.

This is more than a Dog Death Camp - it is a Dog Killing Field, and if any animal rights group is allowed to search that property, they may find hundreds of shallow graves filled with the carcasses of dead dogs who perished in horrible deaths from starvation, dehydration and heat exposure.

When I published Kitty’s story in its entirety, I cried for those dead dogs and vowed to stop the madness. Kitty, along with animal activists who never knew each other before, joined forces to save the remaining dogs. Those groups lobbied the Riverside County Board of Supervisors and the District Attorney’s office to take action.

After much bickering, name calling and finger pointing, finally the DA issued an indictment of 30 counts of animal cruelty, then a Sheriff’s deputy arrested Schwenn at the Indio law library while Animal Control officers raided her property and rounded up most of the remaining dogs. Thank God Pallesen’s attorney, Shelley Rizzotti from Burbank pressured the DA and the judge to mandate that Schwenn never have

custody of any animals again.

Schwenn was released on $55,000 bail and is now filing lawsuits against the county and Animal Control trying to get her dogs back. This would be a travesty of justice. Since her arrest Pallesen has been shot at twice, harassed, followed and threatened continuously.

Pallesen is dealing with the sheriff’s department who say she must “document” everything that happens; however, she’s being treated like an old woman who is wasting their time with hysterical imaginings, even after catching intruders on her property!

The Riverside County Board of Supervisors will hold a rare public meeting at 9 a.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 1 at the Coachella Valley Water District’s Steve Robbins Administration Building in Palm Desert, 75515 Hovley Lane East. I encourage the public to attend.

Due to all of this political pressure and internal corporate issues, I have been forced to resign from my job as Founder and Editor-inChief. I will take my talents elsewhere and pursue other business opportunities that include screenwriting. My first script will be about the Dog Killing Fields in Sky Valley.

IVC FILTER INVESTIGATION Wellness Health Fair • IVC (Inferior Vena Cava) filters are implanted medical devices, usually by interventional radiologists or sometimes by vascular surgeons, 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.

If you or someone you know has had an IVC filter implanted, whether it has been removed or is still in place, please contact McCuneWright at 909-557-1250 or visit our IVC filter website: www.ivcfilterlitigation.com

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: 14 CANYON LAKE DRIVE, RANCHO MIRAGE, CA, 92270. 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 reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is $552,450.80. 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. Said sale will be made, in an ‘’AS IS’’ condition, but without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession or encumbrances, to satisfy the indebtedness secured by said Deed of Trust, advances thereunder, with interest as provided, and the unpaid principal of the Note secured by said Deed of Trust with interest thereon as provided in said Note, plus fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust. 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 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, 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 13-0001702.

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.

School Safety Tips

Plan a walking route to school or the bus stop. Choose the most direct way with the fewest street crossings and, if possible, with intersections that have crossing guards.

Walk the route with your child beforehand. Tell him or her to stay away from parks, vacant lots, fields and other places where there aren’t many people around.

Teach your child never to talk to strangers or accept rides or gifts from strangers. Remember a stranger is anyone you or your children don’t know well or don’t trust.

walking, biking, or riding the bus to school -- to obey all traffic signals, signs and traffic officers.

Remind them to be extra careful in bad weather.

If your child bikes to school, make sure he/she wears a helmet that meets one of the safety standards (U.S. CPSC or Snell).

Research indicates that a helmet can reduce the risk of head injury by up to 85 percent.

Teach children to arrive at the bus stop early, stay out of the street, wait for the bus to come to a complete stop before approaching the street, watch for cars and avoid the driver’s blind Be sure your child walks to spot. and from school with a sibling, friend, or neighbor.

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.

By 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.

Local Men Charged in Vanderbilt Rape Case

By Jackie Devereaux PALM DESERT - The 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

German son seeks reunion with father

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 stepfather 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.

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 Continues on Page 10
