Notes from the Editor Modernism Week’s Fall Preview is back this week which is always an exciting event to attend. There is so much to see and I still get amazed at the Coachella Valley when it comes to architecture. The double decker bus and walking tours are definitely something you should check out this weekend. If you are like me, now is about the time you start getting into the Halloween spirit. To help get into the swing of Halloween, Palm Canyon Theatre is starting their production of the classic Jekyll and Hyde. The show runs Oct. 21 to 30. Don’t forget the Brew in La Quinta event on Oct. 22 at SilverRock Resort. Sounds like its going
to be a great time with lots of beer, food vendors and music. As a nondrinker, I think it’s awesome that they have designated driver tickets available for $10! Just as a reminder, the Coachella Valley Water District is warning customers to be on the look out for scam artists misrepresenting themselves as district personnel. Also Senator Stone will be hosting a free Senior Scam Seminar on Oct. 21 in Cathedral City. You can read more about them on page 11. Until next time ... Jose

‘Jekyll & Hyde’ Haunting Audiences at Palm Canyon Theatre Having trouble deciding what to be for Halloween? So are Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. One thing is certain; they are getting people in the haunting spirit at the Palm Canyon Theatre. Jekyll and Hyde, a musical horror drama based on the novel The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson, plays at PCT October 21-30. The musical features a pop-rock score by Frank Wildhorn, with book by Leslie Bricusse, and lyrics by Bricusse, Wildhorn and Steve Cuden. Set in 19th Century London, a brilliant physician, Dr. Henry Jekyll is plagued by a need to understand his father’s mental illness. Determined to find the distinction between “good” and “evil,” Dr. Jekyll performs an experiment on himself, but ends up creating an alternate personality of pure evil, dubbed Mr. Hyde, who wreaks murderous revenge on the city of London. As Dr. Jekyll’s fiancée, Emma Carew, grows increasingly fearful for her betrothed, a prostitute, Lucy

PUZZLE PAGE
HOROSCOPE OCTOBER 20 - 26 ARIES (March 21-April 19). You let nothing stop you from learning — everyone loves this about you, how you’re constantly evolving, stretching and growing into a person of your own creation.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). It’s an easygoing day, partially due to your accepting mood. Roll with whatever comes, and you’re likely to turn it into something interesting, lucrative and memorable.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You are so sensitive these days. Don’t direct your sensitivity inward; it will be too difficult. Instead, observe art, listen to poetry — you’ll understand it in a way you never did before.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). When your emotional needs are met, the physical needs don’t seem as important. Neither do the other needs. So how can you make yourself happier on a daily basis?
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). What happens organically is working so great for you: You’re doing mighty fine. The fact of this will give you pause as you try to muddle through some plans. Plans are good to make. They focus you, whether or not you follow them.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll meet impressive individuals who might have you feeling stumped for conversation. No worries. Start with an open-ended question with the word “what” to get the whole thing rolling.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Only a fool speaks every thought. After all, many of the thoughts aren’t even yours. They float into your mind from friends, media, the collective unconscious and elsewhere. All must be filtered through that wonderful system of yours. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). By showing up, on time, with a good attitude and a fair amount of energy to burn, you’ll earn the trust of someone who does not give such things very often. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). If you tell yourself over and over what you’re not going to do, you’ll wind up doing that thing. Who is to blame? Not your rebellious spirit. There’s a universal law here about attracting what you focus on, for better or for worse.
8
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your perspective is about to shift big-time. What was uncomfortable will become bearable when you adjust your mind and get more experience. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). When you commit yourself to the task of making your life better going forward, sometimes this entails checking yourself by taking a few steps backward to see if you accidentally dropped your happiness back there. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’re a serious powerhouse today. You have the same 24 hours in a day that everyone else has. But what you do with it makes everyone think you magically were given at least 36.

It doesn’t have the most impressive of names, but hash is a dish both simple and satisfying, whether you serve it hot for breakfast, cold for lunch or warmed up for dinner. Since you can use any dribs and drabs of leftovers to make it, you can’t beat it as a penny-pinching one-pot meal. The name comes from the French verb hacher (to chop), and that’s the main thing to remember when making hash: the ingredients should be chopped into bite-size pieces (about 1/2 inch) so that they get tender at about the same time and are easy to eat without a knife.
Sweet Potato and Chicken Hash
Swapping sweet potatoes for the usual white ones ups the nutrition content in this dish—not to mention making it more colorful. • 3 1/2 cups peeled, diced sweet potatoes (1/2-inch cubes, about 3 medium potatoes) • 1/2 cup water, divided • 4 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 cup diced onion • 1 cup diced celery • 1 cup diced red bell pepper • 1 1/2 pounds cooked chicken breasts, cubed (1/2 -inch cubes, about 4 cups) • 1 bunch green onions, sliced (about 1 cup) • 1 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley • 1/2 teaspoon salt Freshly ground black pepper 1. Place potatoes in a covered microwave-safe bowl with 1/4 cup water and microwave on HIGH until tender, about 4 minutes. 2. Heat oil in a deep 12-inch skillet over medium. Add onion, celery and bell pepper. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. 3. Add sweet potatoes, chicken, green onions and remaining 1/4 cup water to pan. Heat through. Remove pan from heat. Fold in parsley and add salt and pepper. With a large fork, lightly smash the sweet potatoes. Makes 7 cups; serves 6.

Family Sins
But what happens when a judge bends the law or takes a bribe? It’s rare, but it happens. Lacy Stoltz is an investigator for the Florida Board on Judicial Conduct. She is a lawyer, not a cop, and it is her job to respond to complaints dealing with judicial misconduct. But a corruption case eventually crosses her desk. A previously disbarred lawyer is back in business with a new identity. He now goes by the name Greg Myers, and he claims to know of a Florida judge who has stolen more money than all other crooked judges combined. And not just crooked judges in Florida. All judges, from all states, and throughout U.S. history.
Felled by a cowardly shot to the back, Stanton has just enough time before he dies to leave a single clue to his killer’s identity: the word Wayne, scrawled in his own blood. That word means everything to his widow. Leigh was once Leigh Wayne, but she left her wealthy family behind thirty years ago when she fell in love with Stanton, a betrayal the Waynes have never forgiven. Back in town to find his father’s killer, prodigal son Brody finds his search for justice comes with an unexpected ray of light. But the killer still has a score to settle, and if that means spilling more blood—so much the better.

Coachella Valley Water District Warns Customers of Possible Scam Coachella Valley Water District (CVWD) is reminding customers to be wary of possible scams involving people misrepresenting themselves as district personnel. In the past week, CVWD has received several reports of customers being approached by a company offering to test their tap water. Company representatives have implied they are affiliated with CVWD.
October 20, 2016
CVWD does not contract with an outside company to test tap water. In addition, all CVWD personnel carry identification. If a customer has concerns about whether a person is affiliated with CVWD or whether work is authorized by CVWD, they can call CVWD at (760) 391-9600. CVWD is committed to delivering high quality drinking water. Water is delivered to customers
from wells drilled into the valley’s groundwater basin. Highly trained employees monitor the water system and collect drinking water samples that are tested at CVWD’s state-certified laboratory. The Coachella Valley Water District is a public agency governed by a five-member board of directors. The district provides domestic and irrigation water, agricultural
