Big Bear Lake Oktoberfest
More Oom-Pah-Pah Than Ever Before
F
or the first time ever, Big Bear Lake Oktoberfest will feature three different German bands in a six-week span of an eight-weekend stretch that starts September 10 and ends October 29. Big Bear Lake Oktoberfest typically imports one band from Germany to perform three weekends. This year however, event producers have upped the ante to ensure its patrons have more opportunities to enjoy the quintessential sounds of Bavaria. The music, often times referred to as oom-pah-pah, sincerely reflects the traditional music of the original Oktoberfest celebration in Munich, Germany. Each band slated to perform at Big Bear Lake Oktoberfest plays a unique blend of traditional German polkas and sing-alongs mixed with classic rock, country hits and dance-floor standards. The bands create the perfect vibe for a downto-earth German celebration. The bands performing at this year’s Big Bear Lake Oktoberfest includes Alpenklänge on September 17-18. Alpenklänge brings the true spirit of European good times front and center. The New Mainflösser, a crowd favorite, returns after playing in Big Bear in 2010, 2011 and 2013. The New Mainflösser performs three consecutive weekends September 24-25, October1-2 and October 8-9. The Aalbachtal Express takes stage October 15-16
The Aalbachtal Express and October 22-23. This 11-piece band has grown a solid reputation throughout Europe for its authenticity and upbeat live shows. The Express Band, Southern California’s premier German band performs the first weekend (September 10-11) and the final day (October 29). A major attraction that sets Big Bear Lake Oktoberfest apart from other Oktoberfests is its engaging non-stop entertainment, zany German antics and special contests on two stages. Delivering a genuine Bavarian-style celebration with alpine scenery and heritage that sincerely reflects the spirit of the original Oktoberfest, even serving the very same beer poured at Munich’s Oktoberfest! There are two full service
bars located inside the Convention Center and three different beer gardens outside. New this year is the Craft Haus, which provides a variety of micro brews and craft beer, ideal for beer connoisseurs. Fun competitions and contests at Oktoberfest include log sawing, stein carrying, shoot & yodel, a version of beer pong, and stein holding. Children’s fun and games include kiddy mug holding matches and Midway carnival-style games. Dance troupes perform customary dances, the bratwurst and knockwurst is from a German butcher in Los Angeles, and fresh apple strudel as well as pretzels are delivered weekly from a German bakery in Downey! The Chicken Dance is the
definitive favorite dance at Oktoberfest and always amusing. Big Bear Lake Oktoberfest begins Saturday, September 10 and runs for eight consecutive weekends through Saturday, October 29. The weekend festivities takes place at The Convention Center of Big Bear Lake located at 42-900 Big Bear Blvd. Big Bear Oktoberfest kicks off with American’s Hero weekend on Saturday, September 10 offering free admission for all past and present military, fire fighters and law enforcement.

Neighborhood Park News This Week Joshua Springs MHP By Joan Carroll September 5, Labor Day, is a good day for a picnic - weather permitting. Here we had a sandwich and salad dinner planned. The sandwiches were picked up by Marilyn and the participants provided the salads. Be on the lookout for dragonflies. They have been busy in our area lately. I recently read an interesting article in a local paper saying that during ancient times when there was higher oxygen levels some of these insects grew up to l7” and had a two foot wingspan. They are NOT harmful to humans but are ben-
eficial ones eating many harmful insects. I had a small orangish one flying thru the other day. Congratulations to John & Nancy A. on their new Subaru Outback car. Lorry and Judy made a quick trip to see her daughter near Tucson, AZ and help her with rehab, after surgery. Then they went on to Idaho to check on things there. Wendy, my dog, has her own version of hide and seek. She puts her head under the pillow at the beginning of a nap or bed time and waits for me to tap the top of the pillow. Out she comes with a growl and a hecky darn expression on her faceyou found me! Several of these and
she is ready to go to sleep. Eating Well Magazine has put out a new line of frozen dinners. Look for them in the markets late September. The meats used are antibiotic free. The dinners have no artificial flavors, colors or preservatives. Each has a full one cup serving of vegetables. They are labeled Eatingwell. New pumpkin breed in Colorado called Porcelain Doll and is pink! The flesh is deep orange. The owner who is a breast cancer survivor set up a Pink Pumpkin Patch Foundation, a non profit organization that raises funding for breast cancer research thru sales of these pumpkins. All those who grow these pumpkins
Porcelain Doll Pumpkins are donating to cancer research. Eating Well Magazine September/ October 20l6. Please let us know what’s going on in your park. Email news@desertmobilehomenews.com.
Slang Origins ‘Let Bygones be Bygones’ Meaning: Allow the unpleasant things that have happened in the past to be forgotten. Origin: In the 15th century, a bygone was simply ‘a thing that has gone by’, that is, a thing of the
4
past. Shakespeare used it with that meaning in The Winters Tale in 1611. As time progressed, ‘bygones’ came to refer specifically to past events that had an unpleasant
tinge to them; for example, quarrels or debts. The Scottish churchman Samuel Rutherford recorded that usage of the phrase in a letter during his detention in Aberdeen in 1636. In the letter he regrets the

follies of his youth and acknowledges his debt to God in showing him the error of his ways: “Pray that bygones betwixt me and my Lord may be bygones.”

This brown rice and grated zucchini pie, like a quiche without a crust, is a terrific dish to serve for brunch, lunch or supper. The large holes of a hand-held box grater work well for grating the zucchini. Cook the rice ahead so it’s at room temperature when you add it to the other ingredients and allow the pie about 10 minutes between the time it comes out of the oven and serving. The extra cooling time makes it easier to cut neat wedges. Serve the pie with a side of sliced tomatoes or fresh fruit and whole-grain bread. Leftovers, heated in the microwave, make someone a delicious breakfast.
Rice and Zucchini Pie Ingredients • 2 eggs, lightly beaten • 1 cup milk
• 1 1/2 cups grated zucchini, water squeezed out • 3 Tbsp finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley • 3/4 tsp dried dill weed • 1/2 tsp salt • 1/8 tsp coarse ground black pepper • 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded sharp Cheddar cheese, divided Directions 1. Preheat oven to 375F. Coat a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray. 2. In a large bowl whisk eggs and milk. Stir in rice, zucchini, parsley, dill, salt, pepper and 1/2 cup cheese. Pour into pie plate. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese. 3. Bake 30 minutes or until knife inserted in middle comes out clean. Let stand 10 minutes before serving. Serves 4.

Bookmark it! New and Upcoming Reads Between Breaths: A Memoir of Panic and Addiction By Elizabeth Vargas Available September 13
From the moment she uttered the brave and honest words, “I am an alcoholic,” to interviewer George Stephanopoulos, Elizabeth Vargas began writing her story, as her experiences were still raw. Now, in BETWEEN BREATHS, Vargas discusses her accounts of growing up with anxiety-which began suddenly at the age of six when her father served in Vietnam-and how she dealt with this anxiety as she came of age, to her eventually turning to alcohol for relief. She tells of how she found herself living in denial, about the extent of her addiction and keeping her dependency a secret for so long. She addresses her time in rehab, her first year of
8
sobriety, and the guilt she felt as a working mother who had never found the right balance. Killing the Rising Sun
By Bill O’Reilly Available September 13
Killing the Rising Sun takes readers to the bloody tropical-island battlefields of Peleliu and Iwo Jima and to the embattled Philippines, where General Douglas MacArthur has made a triumphant return and is plotting a fullscale invasion of Japan. Told in the same page-turning style of Killing Lincoln, Killing Kennedy, Killing Jesus, Killing Patton, and Killing Reagan, this epic saga details the final moments of World War II like never before.

It Works! Use Cloves to Repel Flies Cloves give us a pleasant aromatic but flies can’t stand in front of the scent of cloves. Mix them with lemon to create a super-powered repellent. Cut a lemon in half. Poke 6-12 cloves into each lemon half so that the bud ends stick out. Leave them on a plate in the middle of the table during outdoor meals to repel flies. Note: you can poke your cloves into apples instead of lemons.

Physical Therapy: The Active Health Solution Why consult a physical therapist?
Physical therapy provides preventive and re habilitative treatment for neurological, musculoskeletal and cardiovascular problems. These may include muscle or joint injuries, chronic pain, arthritis, tendinitis and headaches. Physical therapists are also trained in helping with poor posture, loss of balance, dizziness, vertigo, pelvic rehabilitation and even delays in motor development in children. Physical therapists can treat a person’s functional limitations, regardless if they’re caused by health problems (multiple sclerosis, stroke, arthritis, paralysis, etc.) or by an injury (sprain, fracture, strain, bursitis, etc.). They work with individuals of all ages wanting to recover the full potential of their physical abilities following an accident or sports injury. Depending on the situation, treat-
ments can involve a combination of different techniques, such as applying heat or ice, exercise, manipulative therapy, and even electrotherapy. Consult a physical therapist to learn more about the full range of services and treatments they provide.
Physical Therapy and Arthritis Pain
Physical therapists play a crucial role in the treatment of arthritis
and can help you reduce the pain that comes with this ailment. Physical therapy strengthens the muscles around the affected joints, which helps preserve their shape and flexibility. Therefore, physical therapists can help you maintain and even improve joint mobility, as well as reduce inflammation caused by arthritis. They’re also able to recommend various physical activities — which are critical in managing arthritis — that best suit your current condition.
Physical therapists can provide you with a wealth of useful advice and recommendations to improve your quality of life. They can recommend less strenuous physical activities and instruct you on how to protect your joints while you move about. They can also teach you how proper posture and body me chanics can prevent deformities. Consult a physical therapist to find out more about what physical therapy can do for you and your arthritis.

PUZZLE PAGE
HOROSCOPE SEPTEMBER 8 - 14 ARIES (March 21-April 19). Don’t be surprised if your personality naturally starts to curve to the job at hand. This flexibility of form is a strength, not a weakness. It is because you are so solid at your core that you’re able to bend to your environment. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Every change is a key to the door of another opportunity. It is not always clear which door the key goes to, though. You’ll spend part of the day trying different “doors,” seeking the right fit. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Oddly, the difficulties attract you. Or maybe this isn’t so strange. Maybe it’s the mark of fine character to seek constant challenge. The rewards are, after all, richer where powerful efforts are the demand. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll ride a highly creative frame of mind all day, similar to the one you often experience just as you are drifting off to sleep. There is gold to be mined in this beautiful mix of conscious and subconscious awareness. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The one you’re wild for is always somewhere on your mind, no matter what you’re doing. Therefore, being thoughtful comes easily to you. You’re magnetized toward anything that might delight your love. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). As for your allconsuming, deep, affectionate attachment, sometimes you can’t remember how it began. Other times you can’t have a thought that’s not remembering. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The fresh luck will come after what’s old has been wrapped up.
10
Consider bringing in some outside forces to finish the job faster. The results will be well worth the money. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Get the word out about what you do. Post wide and far. You’ll be surprised who can make use of your talent, and in ways you will really enjoy. That you make money too will be the cherry on top. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Troubled people sense your empathetic nature, and they will tell you their problems. Don’t let this stress you out. Your mind will race to how you can help, but you needn’t worry: Your listening ears are help enough. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You have an excellent sense for placing people in the position they are best suited to. Now the trick is in knowing how to state things to make the job appealing to the person who should be doing it. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). There’s so much that needs to be wrapped up today that you’ll wish you had your own staff to help you finish. Unless you do have your own staff, and then you’ll wish said staff were slightly more efficient. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). To the untrained eye, your carefree ways belie your strong character. The reality is that it’s precisely because of your inner strength and faith in yourself and life’s process that you can afford to be easygoing.

Did You Know? University of Harvard has a Pigment Library
The Forbes Pigment Collection at Harvard University
September 8, 2016
Harvard has a pigment library where the sources of rare colors are stored. The collection is used mostly for scientific analysis, providing standard pigments to compare to unknowns. Scientist at Harvard use techniques such as Raman spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, gas chromatography, and electron microscopy to map out the precise chemical composition of a pigment. These sources include ground shells of
www.desertmobilehomenews.com
now extinct insects, poisonous metals, and wrappings from egyptian mummies. For example, their work was instrumental in proving that a Jackson Pollock painting “rediscovered” in 2007 was actually a fake, after pigment analysis revealed that a specific red color was manufactured 20 years after the artist’s death. The color, Red 254, was a byproduct of a chemical reaction first documented in 1974.

The ‘Golden Girls’ Movement Lifestyle writer Sharon Greenthal has discovered a trend among older, single women that she calls the “Golden Girls” lifestyle. “Widowed, divorced, never married, childless-there are many rea-

Almost one year after an armistice officially ended the First World War, New York City holds a parade to welcome home General John J. Pershing, commander in chief of the American Expeditionary Force (AEF), and some 25,000 soldiers who had served in the AEF’s 1st Division on the Western Front.

At 8:45 a.m. on a clear Tuesday morning, an American Airlines Boeing 767 loaded with 20,000 gallons of jet fuel crashes into the north tower of the World Trade Center in New York City. The im-
pact left a gaping, burning hole near the 80th floor of the 110-story skyscraper, instantly killing hundreds of people and trapping hundreds more in higher floors. As the evacuation of the tower and its twin got underway, television cameras broadcasted live images of what initially appeared to be a freak accident. Then, 18 minutes after the first plane hit, a second Boeing 767–United Airlines Flight 175–appeared out of the sky, turned sharply toward the World Trade Center, and sliced into the south tower at about the 60th floor. The collision caused a massive explosion that showered burning debris over surrounding buildings and the streets below. America was under attack.

Everybody gets a car!”), mayhem–crying, screaming, delirium, fainting–broke out all around her. It was, as one media expert told a reporter, “one of the great promotional stunts in the history of television.”
