CELEBRATING THE RESIDENTIAL PARK COMMUNITIES FOR 63 YEARS
Independence Day in the Desert Celebrate America’s Independence, Patriotism and Pride By Alison Elsner
T
his is the day for red, white and blue. What better way to let freedom ring here in the Coachella Valley in traditional – and some non-traditional – ways, than to take part in many of the local community celebrations planned for July 3 and 4. Since the big day falls on a Wednesday this year, we get a bonus day on Tuesday with many parades and being parties being held both days. The Fourth of July, or Independence Day, is a time to bring families, friends and communities together to recognize our nation’s anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776. Be prepared to show and see plenty of pride, enthusiasm and high spirits across the country – along with fireworks, hot dogs and maybe even your favorite cold beverage! Here’s our line-up of July 4th options!
Patriotic Fireworks Show at Fantasy Springs on July 3 Reminding Americans of the native American history embedded in our nation’s history and intertwined with our patriotism, the Cabazon Band of Mission Indians and Fantasy Springs Resort Casino invites celebrants of all ages to gather for a free fireworks show. The event will take place on Tuesday, July 3 with the fireworks blasting off at 8:45 p.m. from the Eagle Falls Golf Course and accompanying music will be simulcast on The Eagle 106.9 FM. The public is welcome to gather around the Eagle Falls Pro Shop at Fantasy Springs and in the surrounding parking lot. Guests should plan to arrive at Fantasy Springs Resort Casino early to secure a good spot to take in the magnificent and colorful show. Parking will be permitted in the gravel parking lot closest to the Eagle Falls Golf Course Pro
Shop (follow signs for Eagle Falls), in the casino parking garage and in the casino’s west and north lots. Be sure to bring blankets and low-back folding chairs so that you can settle in and really get a bang out of this giant display of sky sparklers. For more information visit FantasySpringsResort.com. Palm Springs’ All American Fourth of July – Baseball and Pool Party As many people know, this annual event is a classic, pretty much defining the July 4th holiday in Palm Springs. Family members are encouraged to attend the much loved “All American Fourth of July” Fireworks Spectacular, Pool Party and Power Baseball festivities on Wednesday, July 4. Guests can make their way over to Sunrise Park for a picnic and then proceed on to adjacent Palm Springs Stadium, 1901 E. Baristo Road, to watch the Palm Springs Power
baseball team take on the Palm Springs Collegiate League All Stars at 6:05 p.m. Gates will open at 5 p.m., and FREE admission for the fireworks begins at 8 pm followed by the fireworks show at 9:15 p.m. sharp! Attendees should bring blankets or lawn chairs to set up on the field for one of the best fireworks shows in the valley. To keep cool on July 4th, think about heading over for a refreshing dip in the pool at the Palm Springs Swim Center, 405 S. Pavilion Way, for fun and frolic at a special 2 p.m. pool party featuring music, games and a large inflatable slide. Or combine the best of both; enjoy the fireworks show while relaxing in the pool! Admission is $2 for children and $6 for adults. Due to the fireworks fallout zone, parking for the pool party will be located in the parking lot off Ramon Road.

Fun facts about fireworks
New ‘Strip and Dip’ record Two-thousand-five-hundred-andfive women went to the beach in County Wicklow, Ireland recently and broke the Guinness World Record for skinny-dipping, according to the Association of Mature American Citizens [AMAC]. The previous so-called ‘Strip and Dip’ record was

Americans love fireworks. After the Continental Congress passed a resolution to declare independence from England (which was actually on July 2), the founding father John Adams wrote that the event would forever after be commemorated with “illuminations” across the country. His prediction has proven correct so far. Here are just a few fun facts about America’s favorite way be festive on the Fourth of July.
• Americans have been using fireworks to commemorate the founding of the country from the very beginning. Fireworks displays on the Fourth of July were recorded before the United States was even officially the United States, in 1777. • Although fireworks have been used in China for a long time, the aerial shell that bursts in the sky was invented in Italy in the 19th century.
• Fireworks are made with gunpowder, so you’d think we invented firearms before fireworks. In fact, the reverse is true. Gunpowder was used for fireworks in the 10th century in China whereas the first recorded use of gunpowder for weapons is from the 11th century. • Blue is the most difficult color to make in fireworks.
• The Walt Disney Company uses more fireworks than any other organization in the world. It also is the second largest purchaser of explosives. Only the United States Department of Defense buys more. This Fourth of July, celebrate the country with a tradition almost as old as the country itself: see a fireworks show!

• It was popular British romance author Jilly Cooper who made the following observation: “The male is a domestic animal which, if treated with firmness, can be trained to do most things.” • Filmmaker George Lucas is arguably best known for his “Star Wars” franchise, but he also directed “American Graffiti.” During the making of that earlier film he designated each reel of film with an R before the reel’s number, and each instance of dialog was prefixed with a D. At one point during the sound mixing, the sound designer needed to use Reel 2, Dialog 2, and so asked

for “R2D2.” Lucas liked the sound of it so much that he used it for the name of a robot character in his later work. • I’d be very surprised if you’d ever heard of Bokassa I, former emperor of the Central African Republic. It’s interesting to note, though, that while he was on trial for infanticide, cannibalism and torture, he commented, “Being head of state is an extremely thankless job.” • If you suffer from ophidiophobia -- and, sadly, many people do -- you may find the following tidbit to be rather unsettling: There are
more than 3,000 different species of snakes. • Researchers have discovered that humans aren’t the only ones to imbibe alcohol on a regular basis. It seems that the tiny pen-tailed tree shrew makes a habit of consuming naturally fermented palm flower nectar, which has an alcohol content of 3.8 percent — comparable to that of most beers.

Now Here’s a Tip By JoAnn Derson
• Moving tip: Put books into suitcases, which often have wheels and good handles, in order to transport them. • Finding a bandage to cover a skinned knee or elbow is almost impossible. These can be a large or irregular area that doesn’t fit under even the most generous of bandages, and adhesive bandages just don’t stick well over a joint. Here’s a tip for that: Apply antibacterial ointment generously, then cover the knee or elbow with a regular gauze pad. Then add a “sleeve” cut from a pair of tights. It moves with the joint without bunching up and it stays in place. • “After the kids decorated cupcakes one day, I found that the counter and floor were covered with little prinkles. Rather than sweeping them up (which made them go flying), I used a lint roller, which worked perfectly.” — S.I. in New York
• “To save money on electricity, hang jeans and other heavy clothing to dry first. When it’s mostly dry, pop it in the dryer to fluff. Do the same with towels. The dryer softens it, but the sunlight dries it well, and I think it smells better too.” — U.F. in Ohio • Some facts about cantaloupe, now in prime season: Choose fruit that is smooth and round, with a depressed, soft scar on the stem end. Look for netting on the skin that is even and yellow, not green. One cantaloupe will get you about 50 melon balls or 4 cups of fruit when diced.

WEEK OF JULY 2, 2018 BORN THIS WEEK: Your willingness to open up to possibilities is why people like you are often among our most popular political leaders.
ARIES (MARCH 21 TO APRIL 19) Before you adventurous Arians charge right into those new projects, take a little time to learn where you’ll be going so you can avoid getting lost before you get there. TAURUS (APRIL 20 TO MAY 20) Your time is devoted to career demands through much of the week. But Venus, who rules your sign, might be planning how (and with whom) you’ll spend your weekend. GEMINI (MAY 21 TO JUNE 20) Don’t be put off by the surprising turn in the way your project is developing. You’ve invested enough time in it to know how to make all the necessary adjustments. CANCER (JUNE 21 TO JULY 22) The work week goes smoothly for the most part. But a weekend visit to a place in your past could hold surprises for your future, especially where romance is involved. LEO (JULY 23 TO AUGUST 22) A sudden attack of shyness for the usually loquacious Lion could be a sign that deep down you’re not sure enough about what (or whom) you had planned to talk up in public. VIRGO (AUGUST 23 TO SEPTEMBER 22) Deal with that job-related problem on-site -- that is, at the workplace. Avoid taking it home, where it can spoil those important personal plans you’ve made. LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 23 TO OCTOBER 22) It’s a good time to let those favorable comments about your business dealings be known to those in a position to be helpful. Don’t hide your light; let it shine. SCORPIO (OCTOBER 23 TO NOVEMBER 21) Avoid added pressure to finish a project on deadline by steering clear of distractions. To put it somewhat poetically: Time for fun -- when your tasks are done. SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 22 TO DECEMBER 21) You might be uneasy about an offer from a longtime colleague. But before you reject it, study it. You might be surprised at what it actually contains. CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 22 TO JANUARY 19) Deal firmly with a difficult family matter. It’s your strength they need right now. You can show your emotions when the situation begins to ease up. AQUARIUS (JANUARY 20 TO FEBRUARY 18) A recent dispute with some co-workers might not have been completely resolved. But other colleagues will be only too happy to offer support of your actions. PISCES (FEBRUARY 19 TO MARCH 20) Let go of that Piscean pride long enough to allow someone to help you with a surprising development. That could make it easier for you to adjust to the change. © 2018 King Features Syndicate, Inc.

Recipe of the Week
The Kitchen Diva By Angela Shelf Medearis
Gone Fishing!
Y
ou might not think of seafood as seasonal. If you go to the supermarket, many types of fish are available yearround. But not all seafood is created equal. If you care about fresh seafood, sustainable fisheries, protecting our oceans and eating fish that is healthier for you and your family, it pays to know what fish are in season. Here are some great tips about selecting fish from the Center for Food Safety, www.centerforfoodsafety.org
▶ Five Tips to choosing
Sustainable Seafood:
Oregon Pink Shrimp Pacific Cod (hook & line, longline & trap) Pacific Halibut Rainbow Trout (farmed) Sablefish (aka Black Cod or Butterfish) (Alaska wild) Salmon (Alaska wild) Sardines (Pacific) (U.S. wild-caught) Shellfish (mussels, oysters, clams) (farmed) Striped Bass (aka Rockfish) (hook & line or farmed) White Seabass (hook & line) Much of the fish available today in the United States is imported, and frequently from places where health and environmental standards are weak or non-existent. Worldwide, regulation of the fishing industry is poorly enforced, and less than 2 percent of seafood imports to the U.S. are inspected for contamination. Shipping fish around the world has a negative impact on the climate, but it can have an even greater impact on our oceans. With nearly 85 percent of the world’s fisheries overfished, our seafood choices are more important than ever. Decades of overfishing have driven many fish populations to levels so low that recovery is a longterm proposition.
1. Choose local seafood if possible, and always choose domestic over imported. 2. Choose wild. 3. If it’s farmed, choose seafood from the U.S., especially in low- or no-output, recirculating systems. 4. Favor fish caught by hook and line, handline, troll (not to be confused with “trawl” fishing, which can be very destructive), jig or speargun. 5. Avoid fish that are high in mercury, PCBs or farmed fish that are given antibiotics. ▶ Farm raised or wild-caught? Aquaculture, the farming of fish ▶ Best Fish to Eat in Summer: and seafood, has resulted in a farEast Coast reaching variety of environmenMahi Mahi (troll, pole) tal consequences, including the Shellfish (mussels, oysters, clams) escape of farmed fish from their (farmed) containment that threatens native Snapper (preferably Yellowtail) wild fish populations; the spread of Stone Crab deadly diseases and parasites; and Striped Bass (aka Rockfish) (hook & the pollution of our oceans from line, farmed) the inputs and outputs of fish farmSwordfish (harpoon, troll, pole) ing.

frequently use antibiotics to control disease in their crowded pens, and PCBs accumulate in farmed fish at a higher rate than wild fish. PCBs can cause significant health concerns for both humans and the environment, and are associated with increased risk of cancer, disrupting the endocrine system, and contributing to developmental and reproductive problems. Eating seasonally – whether it’s fruits, vegetables or fish – is a healthier choice for both our plates and our planet. Use the tips above to go fishing this summer in your grocer’s seafood department and try this wonderful recipe for wild Alaska salmon.
Herb-Roasted Wild Alaska Salmon • 1 (2- to 2 1/2-pound) skinless wild Alaska salmon fillet • 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice • 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest • 4 minced whole green onions, green tops and white parts • 1/2 cup minced fresh dill • 1/2 cup minced fresh parsley • 1/4 cup dry white wine, chicken or vegetable stock • Lemon wedges
1. Heat oven to 425 F. 2. Place the salmon in a ceramic, glass or stainless-steel roasting dish and season with salt, black and cayenne pepper. Whisk the olive oil and lemon juice together and drizzle over the salmon. Let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes. 3. In a small bowl, stir together the lemon zest, scallions, dill and parsley. Scatter the herbs over the salmon, turning it so that both sides are coated. Pour the wine or broth around the fish fillet in the roasting dish. 4. Roast the salmon for 10 to 12 minutes, until firm and almost cooked in the center. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Cut the salmon crosswise into serving pieces, and serve hot with lemon wedges. Serves 6.
