Minnesota State Patrol purged messages after Floyd protests

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Minnesota State Patrol purged emails and text messages immediately after protests over the death of George Floydlast year, according to testimony in a lawsuit that alleges the agency targeted journalists during the unrest.

During a July 28 hearing, State Patrol Maj. Joseph Dwyer testified that he and a “vast majority of the agency” deleted the messages after the protests and riots, according to a transcript published Friday on the court’s docket.

Attorneys for the Minnesota chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union said the file destruction makes it nearly impossible to track the State Patrol’s behavior, as courts and investigators are trying to determine whether law enforcement used improper force against demonstrators.

State Patrol spokesman Bruce Gordon told the Star Tribune that officers follow all requirements for retaining data and that he couldn’t comment further due to the pending lawsuit.

“The purge was neither accidental, automated, nor routine,” ACLU attorneys wrote in a motion asking the judge to order the State Patrol to stop attacks on journalists covering protests. “The purge did not happen because of a file destruction or retention policy. No one reviewed the purged communications before they were deleted to determine whether the materials were relevant to this litigation.”

The lawsuit alleges the Minneapolis Police Department and the State Patrol used unnecessary and excessive force to suppress First Amendment rights to cover the unrest last summer. It’s one of several lawsuits filed against law enforcement for alleged constitutional violations in use of force last summer.

Jared Goyette, a freelancer who covered the unrest for the Washington Post and the Guardian, is the lead plaintiff in the lawsuit, which says he was “shot in the face with less-lethal ballistic ammunition” by Minneapolis police on May 27, 2020. In addition to the lawsuit, the Department of Justice is investigating the police response to protests and riots, and Minneapolis is reviewing how its officers handled the unrest.

During the hearing, Dwyer said troopers were not acting on orders to delete records, but it’s “standard practice” for troopers to do so.

“You just decided, shortly after the George Floyd protests, this would be a good time to clean out my inbox?” asked ACLU attorney Kevin Riach.

Dwyer answered yes and said each person decides when they want to delete these records. He said it’s a “recommended practice” to purge after a major event.

“Are you required to keep email correspondence for a certain period of time?” asked Riach.

“We are not,” said Dwyer.

Under Minnesota data law, the State Patrol is required to make and keep records of official activity — including text messages and emails, said Don Gemberling, spokesman for the nonprofit Minnesota Coalition on Government Information. They can only delete such messages under a schedule approved by a state records retention panel.

Gemberling said Dwyer’s testimony “doesn’t strike me as being consistent with what the statute is trying to accomplish, which is to make sure there’s a record of why government does what it does.”

“What they’ve done raises a whole lot of questions,” Gemberling said.

Saka feels the England love with scoring return to Wembley

LONDON (AP) — The cheers of the Wembley crowd made clear the affection for Bukayo Saka the moment the England lineup was announced.

There were even louder roars to come when the birthday boy headed in the final goal in a 4-0 World Cup qualifying win over Andorra on Sunday.

“It really made a difference for me,” the 20-year-old Saka said. “I could hear so many fans cheering my name.”

How different from 56 days earlier when England last played at Wembley. When Saka missed England’s last penalty in the European Championship final shootout loss to Italy. When the youngster was targeted with a torrent of racist abuse on social media, leading to police investigations and arrests.

Saka was showered with love when he arrived back from his summer break to Arsenal to find a wall covered in messages of support at the training ground.

It was returning to Wembley that allowed Saka to see the warmth from true England fans after that abhorrent abuse that social media companies were slow to remove.

“I’m really happy with the reception everyone gave me,” Saka said. “It really showed how proud they are of me. I think that meant a lot for me and it made me really want to give my all.”

That was clear to England manager Gareth Southgate.

“I hope closure, if it was needed,” he said. “You can see how popular he is with the rest of the team.”

Saka’s impact was apparent early on with a cross setting up Jesse Lingard to score England’s only goal of the first half against the footballing minnows from the Pyrenees.

Lingard doubled his tally for the evening by scoring the third for the hosts, finishing from the edge of the box with Andorra goalkeeper Josep Gomes only able to get a hand to his low shot.

England’s second in the 72nd minute saw captain Harry Kane net his 40th international goal from a penalty after Mason Mount was bundled over.

After Lingard scored his second, it was Saka who had the final say. He left Southgate beaming as he nodded in from Trent Alexander-Arnold’s cross in the 85th minute.

It set off the most thunderous celebrations of the evening from fans.

“It makes me believe they support me through thick and thin,” Saka said.

England has a five-point lead in Group I over Wednesday’s next opponent, Poland, which routed San Marino 7-1. Robert Lewandowski scored twice in the opening 21 minutes. There was also a hat trick from Adam Buksa, with two of his goals coming at the end in stoppage time.

San Marino did score its first goal in the group after five matches but it was already losing 4-0 at the time and the team remains in last place with zero points.

Albania had a 1-0 win over Hungary to go third, a point behind Poland.

Only the top team automatically qualifies for the tournament in Qatar in November 2022 with the group runners-up having to go through playoffs.

The Latest: Sakkari beats 2019 champ Andreescu at US Open

National Sports

Novak Djokovic, of Serbia, returns a shot to Kei Nishikori, of Japan, during the third round of the US Open tennis championships, Saturday, Sept. 4, 2021, in New York. (AP Photo/John Minchillo)

NEW YORK (AP) — The Latest on the U.S. Open tennis tournament (all times local):

2:15 a.m.

Maria Sakkari has eliminated 2019 champion Bianca Andreescu in the latest-finishing women’s match in tournament history to reach the U.S. Open quarterfinals for the first time.

Sakkari came back to win 6-7 (2), 7-6 (6), 6-3 as Andreescu had trouble with a left leg that was taped by a trainer during a medical timeout in the third set. Andreescu limped around between points down the stretch and her leg buckled a few times.

The 3 1/2-hour match ended at nearly 2:15 a.m. The previous women’s record was a 1:48 a.m. finish for a first-round match in 2016 in which Madison Keys beat Alison Riske; three men’s matches have wrapped up at 2:26 a.m.

Both players’ grunts reverberated off the thousands of unused blue seats in Arthur Ashe Stadium by the end. Fans who remained engaged in dueling first-name chants: “Ma-ri-a!” and “Bi-an-ca!”

This was Andreescu’s first loss in the main draw at Flushing Meadows. She beat Serena Williams in the final to win the title in her debut two years ago and missed the hard-court Grand Slam tournament in 2020 while sitting out the entire season with an injured knee.

The 17th-seeded Sakkari will face two-time Grand Slam runner-up Karolina Pliskova in the quarterfinals.

Sakkari’s best showing at a major tournament was a semifinal run at the French Open in June.

1:15 a.m.

Bianca Andreescu and Maria Sakkari are headed to a third set in the last match of the U.S. Open’s fourth round.

Each of the first two sets ended in tiebreakers and they already have been playing for 2 1/2 hours.

The sixth-seeded Andreescu took the opening set 7-6 (2).

The 17th-seeded Sakkari evened the match by grabbing the second 7-6 (6).

Andreescu was the 2019 champion at Flushing Meadows and has never lost in the main draw. She missed the tournament last year.

Sakkari is trying to reach the U.S. Open quarterfinals for the first time. Her best showing at a Grand Slam was a semifinal run at the French Open in June.

10:20 p.m.

Novak Djokovic is into the U.S. Open quarterfinals and three wins from men’s tennis history.

The No. 1 seed pulled away over the final 2 1/2 sets to beat 99th-ranked American Jenson Brooksby 1-6, 6-3, 6-2, 6-2 and keep alive his hopes for the first calendar-year Grand Slam by a men’s player since 1969.

Djokovic will next face No. 6 seed Matteo Berrettini, the man he beat to win Wimbledon and give him 20 Grand Slam titles, tied with Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal for most by a male.

9:45 p.m.

Novak Djokovic has moved into the lead in his fourth-round match against American Jenson Brooksby.

The top-ranked Djokovic leads 1-6, 6-3, 6-2 as he tries to keep alive his hopes of winning a men’s record 21st Grand Slam title.

Djokovic finally had a fairly easy time in the third set, racing to a 4-0 lead and winning in 49 minutes as the 20-year-old Brooksby showed signs of wearing down after a grueling second set.

Djokovic is 10-0 against Americans at the U.S. Open.

8:55 p.m.

Novak Djokovic has evened his riveting fourth-round match against American Jenson Brooksby at one set apiece.

Brooksby, a wild card ranked 99th, took the first set 6-1. Djokovic came back to take the second set 6-3.

Trying to complete the first calendar-year Grand Slam by a man since 1969, Djokovic shook off the loss of an exhausting 24-point game that cut his lead to 3-2. He broke Brooksby in the following game and then won the next as well to regain control.

The second set lasted 1 hour, 8 minutes.

7:55 p.m.

Jenson Brooksby has won the first set against No. 1 Novak Djokovic — and the 20-year-old American did it easily.

Brooksby, ranked 99th, took the set 6-1 in 29 minutes, breaking Djokovic’s serve twice.

Djokovic is trying to win the calendar-year Grand Slam. Brooksby is trying to become the youngest American man in a major quarterfinal since Andy Roddick at the 2003 Wimbledon.

4:25 p.m.

Emma Raducanu has gone all the way from the U.S. Open qualifying rounds to the quarterfinals.

The 18-year-old from Britain routed American Shelby Rogers 6-2, 6-1 to join fellow teenager Leylah Fernandez in the women’s last eight.

Raducanu reached the fourth round at Wimbledon and has gone a step further in the year’s last Grand Slam tournament, becoming just the third female qualifier to reach the U.S. Open quarterfinals in the professional era.

Rogers, who upset No. 1 seed Ash Barty in the last round, jumped to a 2-0 lead before Raducanu won the next 11 games.

Another player advanced to his first Grand Slam quarterfinal when unseeded Lloyd Harris handled Reilly Opelka’s big serve and eliminated the No. 22-seeded American 6-7 (6), 6-4, 6-1, 6-3.

Harris plays Olympic gold medalist Alexander Zverev next.

2:45 p.m.

Alexander Zverev is into the U.S. Open quarterfinals with his 15th straight victory.

The No. 4 seed from Germany beat 13th-seeded Jannik Sinner 6-4, 6-4, 7-6 (7).

Zverev started his winning streak at the Olympics, where he beat top-ranked Novak Djokovic in the semifinals en route to the gold medal.

Djokovic is in action later Monday.

1:30 p.m.

Belinda Bencic is back into the quarterfinals of the U.S. Open.

The Olympic gold medalist from Switzerland beat Iga Swiatek 7-6 (12), 6-3 to make the last eight in Flushing Meadows for the third time.

The 11th-seeded Bencic pulled out the lengthy first-set tiebreaker, then took the second set in 43 minutes — only about 20 more than the tiebreaker lasted.

Bencic was a semifinalist at the U.S. Open in 2019, the last time she played. She also reached the quarterfinals in her debut in 2014.

Swiatek, the No. 7 seed from Poland who won last year’s French Open, was the only women’s player to reach the fourth round in every major this year.

11:35 a.m.

Novak Djokovic is back at the stage of his loss at the U.S. Open last year.

The top-ranked Djokovic plays Monday night at Arthur Ashe Stadium against 20-year-old American Jenson Brooksby.

It was in the fourth round last year at Flushing Meadows that Djokovic was defaulted for accidentally hitting a line judge in the throat with a tennis ball after dropping a game in his match against Pablo Carreño Busta.

After then losing to Rafael Nadal in the French Open final, Djokovic has gone on to win all three major tournaments this year, a 24-match winning streak in Grand Slam play. He will become the first man to win all four in the same year since 1969 if he wins the U.S. Open.

Olympic champions Alexander Zverev and Belinda Bencic were also on the Labor Day schedule. American Shelby Rogers, who knocked out women’s No. 1 seed Ash Barty, was set to face 18-year-old British qualifier Emma Raducanu.

Hello Friends,

Fall is my favorite season of the year. The colors are unbelievable and the smells are amazing. I think the sun shines with a special brightness and there is nothing like the warm sunny days with a bit of a chill in the breeze. The trees are so brilliant and beautiful, when you are walking the leaves are crunching under your feet and the smell of the season is so comforting.

It is a wonderful time of the year with just a bit of sadness added. The sadness is because after this great hooray we will than be ascended on with the bitter cold of the winter months. Which you can tell is my least favorite but even earth must rest I guess.

The Zodohos Pigi-square, is a place that is located some way into the old part of Paros. Room prices are about 35 Euro. The place has got excellent praise from our readers, or how about this:

Willmaguid“If are going to stay at Paros you should choose an apartment/room at George & Irene, who were unbelievable kind and friendly. The rooms are very fresh looking and they have got AC. George & Irene does not pick up at the harbour so it is best to call and make a reservation in advance. We didn’t stay at any better place during our travel.”

Storm Approaching Intercostal Waterway Florida

Storm clouds gather ominously above the ocean

I call this image Wrath of God Storm Approaching. The dark and evil-looking clouds over the ocean waterway look like a hurricane is approaching.

We were on a boat on the Florida Intercoastal Waterway when these massive clouds came in. The water was still calm, but we knew we were in for a hell of a thunderstorm. Take note of the horizon line. Those tiny objects right below the massive storm clouds are full-size apartment buildings. Comparing the size of the storm clouds with the land structures gives the viewer a sense of the scale of the storm.

Section of Glacier NP's Going-to-the-Sun Road closes for season

Posted at 3:00 PM, Oct 14, 2020
and last updated 2020-10-14 17:05:47-04

GLACIER NATIONAL PARK — The alpine sections of the Going-to-the-Sun Road in Glacier National Park are now closed for the remainder of the season.

Currently, visitors can drive 15.5 miles of the road from the West Entrance to Avalanche Creek.

All roads on the east side of the park remain closed due to COVID-19 operating requirements.

The Going-to-the-Sun Road typically closes between Avalanche Creek and Jackson Glacier Overlook on or before the third Monday in October, depending on road and weather conditions.

A temporary road closure was first implemented on the evening of Oct. 9 due to inclement weather forecasted.

Since that time, several inches of snow has accumulated at Logan Pass.

The National Weather Service forecasts additional snowfall and wind gusts up to 50 mph for elevations above 5,000 feet. Logan Pass sits at an elevation of 6,646 feet.

The Going-to-the-Sun Road closure at Avalanche Creek will continue for the remainder of the season as a result, according to a news release.

Visitors are reminded that hiker and biker access is permitted on most closed roads in the park however risks include falling ice or rocks, and ice-covered or snowy road conditions.

Hiker/biker access does not extend to roads on the east side of the park this year due to COVID-19 closures.

Click here for real-time updates on road closures and hiker/biker access restrictions.

Most visitor amenities in the park have closed for the season. One section of Apgar Campground (Loop B) is open for primitive camping on a first come, first served basis.

The Apgar Backcountry Permit Office and Aquatic Invasive Species Boat Inspection Station close on Oct. 31. No boating in the park is permitted after Oct. 31.

Free winter backcountry camping permits are available from Nov. 1 until April 30 and can be reserved three to seven days in advance by email or by phone at (406) 888-7800, option 5.

The Apgar Visitor Center is closed, but restrooms and potable water remain available at this location year-round.

LOST TRAIL — It is officially ski season here in western Montana.

One of the mountains where new COVID-19 procedures are not stopping the patrons from having a good time.

Thursday was opening day at Lost Trail Ski Area and despite only having two lifts open it was a success according to people who took advantage of the mountain.

"It was good you know it was powdery a little bit in the shadier spots you get more powder sunnier spots you got stickier stuff that kind of controlled you," said snowboarder, Scott Skelton.

A good start to the season and when more snow falls more of the mountain can open up.

"We would love to have another 18 inches to really get our north side open," said Lost Trail Co-owner, Judy Grasser.

Not a lot of changes come to the mountain this year but due to the pandemic, there are some changes to the lodge.

"Just the regular face coverings and having to control the amount of people we can let into a space at a time," Grasser said. "A lot of plexiglass in all the main face to face areas registers food line."

Despite the new procedures, the experience didn’t change for the regulars.

"Just went out there and had fun like every other year," said Skelton.

Only two lifts open to start the year but officials are anticipating a great ski season and hope to open up more of the mountain come Christmas

Lost Trail renovated parts of the lodge, including new bathrooms and a new retail area.

You can buy tickets, view how much of the mountain is open, and check the COVID-19 procedures by visiting Lost Trail's website.

Why I no longer trust the St. Paul Police

My dogs awoke me,  barking,  at 3:00 AM -  and I knew something was wrong. I grabbed my under-the-bed baseball bat and stormed into my backyard. The car next door had been burglarized; a neighbor's garage broken into. And the woman who lives in the house behind mine was robbed in the middle of the night. And so as the flood lights slapped across my empty back yard and my dogs growled, I determined to apprehend the culprit. I searched the yard for the wretched, evil doer who would dare take advantage of the decent folks who live in Como Park. Behind me, in my living room, someone walked out the front door with my MacBook and other electronics. Because I didn't check inside the house - I didn't discover the crime until the next morning. "This ain't CSI, lady."  I phoned the police at 7:30 A.M. It took him almost an hour to get to my home - and when he finally knocked -  I opened my door to an overweigh, winded officer. By then I was frant

Baby Boomers around the globe worship your legacy - your brave, outrageous career where you stepped out - risked much - and led us into our maturity. As Michael Dorsey in  Tootsie  - you exposed an artist brave enough to lampoon his feminine side. As Ted Kramer, in Kramer vs. Kramer  - you challenged other men to reexamine their ability to nurture, to settle for the glories of domesticity. And no one else could have exposed the complexities  of Raymond Babbitt as did you in  Rain Man.   The world honors your excessive and grand talent - but if these allegations are true, none of that will matter.  History will forget your artistry and remember you as a dirty old man. That's what I do not understand.  You're not a B list guy - - not a "made for TV" Hollywood guy. You're Hoffman, for god's sake.  And I cannot fathom you jeopardizing your lionized legacy around someone's seve

Vietnam veteran sprucing up memorials at Missoula’s Rose Memorial Park

MISSOULA — Montanans are proud of those who have served -- whether it is in the military, as a first responder, or as a front-line worker.

When one Vietnam veteran from Missoula noticed that some of the monuments at Rose Memorial Park no longer had the luster they once did, he decided to do something about it.

On its own, Rose Memorial Park is a pleasant place to walk and enjoy the flowers and trees. Add, the memorials for veterans, first responders, and others, and it becomes something of an emotional centerpiece for Missoula.

Jim Salisbury

That’s why Jim Salisbury decided to put up. He and his young daughter were there for the dedication of the Vietnam Memorial in 1988 and when the two visited last Veteran’s Day, he didn’t like what he saw.

"I took note of the lettering, specifically on the monuments and I said, ‘you know, I want to do something about that, it should be cleaned up’,” Salisbury said. “And obviously, I've been here many times before that. I went home and contacted David."

David is David Selvage with the Missoula Parks System. The two came up with a plan, and Salisbury donated the money to get the much-needed cleanup started.

"This hasn't been done in over ten years, a regular cleaning. And it's time. It's definitely time. The plaques are becoming hard to read. They represent a lot of people, a lot of Montanans,” Selvage said.

Rose Park Memorial

Garden City Monument will be doing the work, which includes some minor restoration, while giving the pieces some real shine, again.

"So, you can actually read the names. You go over to the World War II Memorial, and you can read the names,” Salisbury said. “The Korean War is in bad shape too. And this one. Yeah, I'm excited to see what it looks like in a few weeks."

"This is important to all of our community and when people wish to donate, their values are on the table. Right? And they want to donate to something that is meaningful to them,” Selvage said. “And that helps us all.”

Rose Park Memorial

For Salisbury, his contribution was more than just an act of Civic Pride, it is personal and really, an act of love. He is a Vietnam veteran who has names of friends on the Memorial.

"One of those friends being a Helena kid that was a couple years older than me. And his name is inscribed over there -- Thomas Neal Grose, Army Sergeant, who was killed a few weeks before I arrived in the country,” Salisbury said.

“And so, we always think of him. And as a quirk of fate would have it my mom and dad are buried next to him in Helena in the cemetery, and it's kind of cool,” he continued. “We maintain his grave because he doesn't have family left, so..."

Salisbury donated through a non-profit with Missoula Parks and Recreation which is designed to fund specific projects. The work is expected to be done by the weekend of May 22nd, one week before the Memorial Day holiday.

My (hopeful) pandemic pregnancy: Inside the world of IVF and COVID-19 -- ‘It’s terrifying’

A selection of IVF hormone bottles and syringes.

Author’s note: This is not MY personal story, per se, (despite the “my pandemic pregnancy” title), but a story told by our readers, week by week. Today’s is shared by Sarah.*

You might have heard that being pregnant, trying to get pregnant, or delivering right about now is strange, in this age of coronavirus. But how? In what ways? We’re going to show you -- with a different feature each week. To contribute your own experience, scroll all the way down to the bottom of this article and tap the link.

Going though in vitro fertilization, or IVF, under normal circumstances, can be a challenge, both mentally and physically -- and for some, that’s phrasing it mildly.

You’re going in for bloodwork, sometimes every other day. You’re attending never-ending doctors appointments. There’s a ton on your mind and you just want everything to go well. It’s an often-heavy process.

Take it from Sarah*, who asked that we not use her real name, for privacy reasons. Sarah is 32, married, and lives in Farmington Hills, Michigan. She didn’t mince words when it came to describing her own IVF situation. Some examples:

  • “It’s not how you want to conceive a child.”
  • “You feel like a human pincushion with all the blood draws.”
  • And then when you throw COVID-19 into the mix, “It’s terrifying.”
  • “Going through IVF, every time you go in, it seems like you’re getting bad news or there’s a painful procedure.”

Ugh. No one wants to hear of another human going through something like that.

So imagine then, that your support person, like in Sarah’s case, her husband, is now unable to attend any of those painful procedures or appointments.

“It’s scary,” Sarah said.

It’s also unprecedented. Safe to say, no one assumed the globe would be gripped by a pandemic this year; a true health crisis -- and no one knows when things will return to “normal.”

But don’t get her wrong: Sarah is grateful that she’s able to proceed with IVF -- which, spoiler alert, she is. (More on that soon!)

She even added that the couple has “decent” insurance, and said for many, they’re not so lucky. Most insurance companies don’t cover things like IVF, which can total as much as $40,000 for just one round.

But all that money talk, that feels stressful, too. Sarah said if she were to contract COVID-19, her cycle would be canceled. That’s a frightening thought, lingering over one’s head.

“So then you’d be out money, time and pain,” Sarah said. “(It’s like), is it worth it to be doing this?”

To rewind …

Sarah has been knee-deep in all things IVF-related for much of the year. She began the journey and went through round one starting in February.

First up, she had two to three weeks of injections, to hopefully produce more eggs.

Sarah took the injections, and then doctors performed a surgery to retrieve her eggs. She said she got through it just fine.

Next, this is typically the time when, if you had any embryos that made it through the egg-retrieval process, the doctors will mix them with sperm, and then you’d transfer.

For Sarah, this was when COVID-19 arrived in the United States and started becoming more and more of a growing concern.

She and her husband had ended up with one embryo, so the next step would be a second surgery to make sure nothing is blocking the implantation of said embryo.

“But COVID hit right when I was scheduled to go in,” Sarah said. “So we decided to postpone (and) see how things would play out.”

That felt frustrating for the couple, too.

They’ve been playing the waiting game for a long time -- married 6 ½ years, and trying for a baby for about four of those years.

“And we don’t have a lot of time to wait,” Sarah said. “We don’t want the issues (that led us to IVF in the first place) to get any worse, and we’re not getting any younger.”

Sarah and her husband opted to move forward with the second surgery.

And with the coronavirus pandemic continuing, “You had to go through it alone, when you’re already scared,” Sarah said.

Doctors were able to perform the transfer, but Sarah’s husband wasn’t allowed to attend.

“The whole process is devastating,” Sarah said. “You’re getting ready to conceive a child and your husband can’t even be there.”

Questions, answers

It was already a tense time.

Then, the couple learned that their embryo transfer failed.

“You want answers right away,” Sarah said. “But doctors aren’t meeting. So you need to wait for a Zoom call. You’re not being able to see your results and you’re not being able to get answers.”

Having to survive the failed transfer during quarantine was really tough.

“Most doctors (tell you) to stay busy and lean on your support system during all (the waiting),” Sarah said.

Because indeed, there is a lot of waiting. More than you might imagine.

“(When it comes to) waiting for results in IVF, there’s waiting a week to find out if you were able to get any embryos after the first round of injections and egg retrieval surgery,” Sarah said. “(Then you wait) another two weeks after that for genetic testing on those embryos to see if they are viable, and then of course, the two weeks waiting to find out if you’re pregnant after the embryo transfer to see if all your efforts worked.”

And, considering coronavirus, Sarah said, all of the now-solo waiting felt especially challenging.

“You’re just trapped at home and not able to stay busy to keep yourself mentally healthy,” she recalled. “I know for me, my friends and family have been my rock during these four years leading to IVF. ... It’s been so hard, being isolated.”

What’s next?

In discussing the future with Sarah, she sounds optimistic: There’s something cheerful in her tone, and she’s so willing to open up and chat about all of this with a total stranger (editor’s note: which I so admire!)

She and her husband will try again. In fact, they’re set to start a second round of IVF in September.

Her husband has been one of her only comforts throughout this strange time, Sarah said, so she hopes she can have him present for more in-person appointments and procedures this time around. But the future remains incredibly uncertain.

“We don’t know what’s going to happen,” Sarah said. “In an ideal world, I’d probably wait. But with time constraints, you have to try.”

Sarah and her husband will likely hole up a bit, leading up to their second IVF round. Luckily, they both have jobs that allow them to work from home. It’s a seemingly small perk, but it becomes quite notable through all of this.

And then two weeks or so before the cycle, Sarah said, it’ll start: They’ll be extra cautious and they won’t leave the house until it’s all over. Too much is at stake.

It makes sense.

Sharing their story

Sarah said she wants to help show a different perspective when it comes to pregnancy.

After all, she’s had just as many doctors appointments and stressors, if not more, than your average expecting mother.

“I hope it helps others who are in the same boat,” she said.

Elizabeth Warren Touts Anti-Corruption Plan In Auditorium Shores Town Hall

Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren
Julia Reihs
Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren addresses the crowd at Auditorium Shores on Tuesday.

Despite the threat of a storm, thousands of people descended on Vic Mathias Shores on Tuesday for a rally for Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, one of 20 Democrats vying for the presidential nomination in 2020.

Warren talked about child care, student loans, her tax plan and her anti-corruption plan, which she dubbed “the biggest since [anti-corruption laws enacted after] Watergate.”

“It’s people who make money from the status quo [who] have figured out that it is cheaper to invest in politicians than it is investing in cleaning up your own business,” she said. “We are going to turn that around in a Warren administration.”

Warren also took questions from the audience. One woman asked what else could be done to address climate change.

“This is the ultimate threat and the problem is accelerating,” she said. “I have multiple plans for this because this is how we have to think about this.”

Gabriella Soza of Southeast Austin told KUT she started looking into candidates only recently and that Warren is her No. 1 pick.

“I wasn’t initially planning on backing anyone this early, but I’ve already gone all in and started purchasing T-shirts and aprons and all kinds of stuff,” she said. “And so I’m here.”

Soza said she was primarily looking to back a woman. She said she also supports Warren’s plan to deal with skyrocketing student debt.

Barbara Comstock, who was visiting from the Bay Area, attended the rally with her daughter, Chloe. Like Soza, she said she wants to see a female president.

“She’s really smart. She’s got solid plans,” Barbara said. “I think she relates to people, and I am ready for a woman in the White House.”

Chloe, a college student, said she likes all the candidates, but Warren is her favorite.

Many voters at Auditorium Shores said they preferred Warren, but were ready to vote for whomever gets the Democratic nomination.

That was a common sentiment. Many voters said they prefer Warren, but are ready to vote for whomever gets the nomination.

“I will be a fan of whoever gets the nomination, and I will work my tail off for them,” Barbara said.

Larry Schuenemann, who grew up in Lockhart and now lives in California, was there with his son, Jordan, who lives Austin.

He said he’s deciding between Warren and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, but he likes that Warren seems fearless.

“I’ve got some time to make up my mind,” he said.

His son said he has definitely decided to vote for Warren. He said his biggest issue is climate change and he likes that Warren is well-versed on a range of issues.

“She has a plan for everything,” he said. “That’s awesome.”

Warren, one of several candidates with ties to Texas, was a law professor at UT Austin in the '80s. She was part of a team of researchers who looked into bankruptcy filings in America, primarily among people in the middle class.

According to last week’s Texas Lyceum poll, Warren had about 15% support among Texas voters, following former Vice President Joe Biden, who led with 24%, and former El Paso Congressman Beto O’Rourke, who had 18% support. Former HUD Secretary Julian Castro, who was the mayor of San Antonio from 2009 to 2014, garnered only about 4% support in that poll.

The Orange County Youth Center (OCYC) began approximately 42 years ago, when the City of La Habra began to operate workforce development programs for youth and adults under the Manpower Development and Training Act, a United States federal law enacted in 1962 to train workers and provide them with employment. Workforce Development laws may have changed throughout the 42 years, but the City of La Habra has remained constant in the delivery of employment and training programs. Beginning in 2004, the City of La Habra began exclusively providing services to at-risk youth, ages 17-24, from funding under the federal Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA), through a grant administered by the Orange County Development Board (OCDB). In 2012, John Muir Charter School joined the OCYC as an on-site partner providing an accredited high school diploma completion program to youth ages 16-25. If attending school full time is not a possibility, the OCYC added CalPac as a partner in 2018. CalPac’s Pathways Academy offers students 19 to 24 a chance to earn their accredited high school diploma online at their own pace.

Current Unemployment Rates:

United States 6.9%; California 9.3%; Orange County 7.5%; Los Angeles County 12.1%; Riverside County 9%; San Bernardino County 9.1%; City of La Habra 8.5%

Security & Strategic Review - February 2021

REGION: New migrant caravan highlights key test for Biden

The departure last month of a new caravan of migrants from Honduras, heading to Guatemala en route to Mexico and the US, highlighted a major priority for the new US administration led by President Joe Biden with regard to Central America. President Biden has pledged a different approach to the hardline anti-immigration policy pursued by his predecessor Donald Trump (2017-2021) [SSR-20-12]. However, both the caravan, as well as a recent high-level meeting on forced displacement in Central America, again underline the dire economic and security conditions, exacerbated by the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic and damage wreaked by recent hurricanes, which are driving irregular migration.

The Steve Allen Theater in Los Feliz, known in recent years as the Trepany House, will be torn down to make way for condominiums in early November, according to the theater’s founding artistic director, Amit Itelman.

The landmark 99-seat theater was long known as the Center for Inquiry, home to a nonprofit group founded by Carl Sagan and Isaac Asimov to promote secular humanism and scientific-based thought. The venue’s executive director, James Underdown, named the theater after television personality Steve Allen — a proponent of scientific skepticism — in 2003 and Itelman came on board soon after, booking an array of eclectic and immersive entertainment.

Music, comedy and theater at the space have always been out of the box, with themes and presentations that stayed true to the venue’s and CFI’s original forward-thinking vision. From multiple L.A. Weekly Theater Award winner Re-Animator: The Musical to workshops with Marc Maron to hip magic with Rob Zabrecky to Catopia (a fest for the feline-obsessed featuring music, art and pet adoption), Trepany has been a hub for subversive ideas and performance. But first and foremost, it's always been about fun.

“There are so many moments that felt like highlights here, “ says Itelman of the past 14 years. “We had Rudy Ray Moore perform his last stand-up set here before he died, and I grew up on Re-Animator, so working with Jeff Combs and Stuart Gordon on the musical version was a treat. The Idiots was one of our first shows, a comedy about famed scientists Watson and Crick, starring Craig Anton and Ron Lynch. That led to Tomorrow!, our weekly midnight show, which has been a bedrock of weirdness in L.A. Kate Micucci got her start at the theater, Metalocalypse started as a sketch, and Kids in the Hall and Mr. Show developed material here. Eddie Izzard developed his biggest show, Force Majeure, here too. And I directed Max Maven's Thinking in Person, which has gone on to tour the world.”

About five years ago, Itelman’s Trepany House took on an even more prominent role, adding sound-driven experimental performance to the mix, and working often with the musical mind of Kristian Hoffman. Best known for his seminal punk band The Mumps, which he started with Patti Smith Group co-founder Jay Dee Daugherty and Lance Loud of the groundbreaking original reality show An American Family on PBS, Hoffman’s pedigree also includes stints with The Swinging Madisons, Ann Magnuson's Bleecker Street Incident, The Contortions, James White and the Blacks and, perhaps most notably, Klaus Nomi, for whom he wrote pop hits, including “Total Eclipse.” Hoffman also was Rufus Wainwright's first musical director, was in Mink Stole's band and has toured Europe with Joey Arias, Dave Davies and Prince Poppycock. His 2002 album “&” features duets with Russell Mael, Van Dyke Parks, Lydia Lunch and others.

Hoffman first became aware of the theater when he attended a Nomi tribute there. “I thought, 'This will be really embarrassing, and I'll feel really old and alone, and no one will know who I am,'” he recalls. “What happened was that the amazing opera singer Timur Bekbosunov was performing there, and his musical professor dragged him over to me. We have been working together ever since. And he recorded five of my songs for his first album.”

Hoffman quickly became friends with Itelman, and they collaborated on memorable shows there including Prince Poppycock’s The Beastly Bombing and a postmortem Bowie tribute (“You haven't lived until you've seen Cherry Vanilla's version of 'Heroes' with Blondie's Clem Burke on drums,” Hoffman asserts), a holiday party with comedic actor Dave Foley and CBGBs West, an ode to his East Coast punk roots.

He also was behind the book release party for Lance Out Loud, American Family matriarch Pat Loud's coffee-table volume celebrating her famous son. Pat Loud, who is a mother figure to Hoffman, inspired his last production at Trepany too, a tribute to German composer Kurt Weill taking place on Friday, Sept. 22.

“Pat has been amazingly supportive of everything I do, and comes to every show. She has been begging me for about eight years to do a Kurt Weill tribute,” Hoffman says. “I have scant experience with the Kurt Weill canon. Mainly I know the Judy Collins version of 'Pirate Jenny' and Bobby Darin's 'Mack the Knife,' but finally, as the demolition date neared for this venue and her 91st birthday approaches, I thought, what better time than now to answer Pat's request?

“There is a lot of community support for the theater, and every show I've ever done there has sold out, which is bizarre at my advanced age,” Hoffman jokes. “Amit has been amazingly supportive of the community and made a spiritual home for all sorts of people who just have a crazy idea and want to run with it. A perfect host and, thankfully for all of the supremely gifted nuts and weirdos I always bring in, a very patient man.”

Though Trepany will be operational for another month and a half, Itelman says the Weill extravaganza is a significant event for the venue. “It’s representative of the sorts of shows we have been doing in the past 14 years for a number of reasons,” he explains. “First of all, the cast —  Kristian, Ann Magnuson, Prince Poppycock and more — are regulars here who have developed their acts and given years of entertainment to the patrons here. Of course Kurt Weill’s body of work is an inspiration to anyone in the performing arts. He had that rare balance of artistic integrity, singularity and commercial appeal. He was able to create darkness that was joyous to experience. Trepany House is a proper home for the 'Threepenny' life.”

Hoffman agrees. “This was a chance for me and my band to explore the passion of all the great artists we have worked with over the years at the Steve Allen, as well as this great composer's music,” says the keyboardist, who delves into similarly eclectic territory as musical director of Brookledge Follies and as a founding DJ at internet radio station Luxuriamusic.com, where he hosts the weekly program Pepperland Spicerack. (Yours truly broadcasts a show there as well.) “This has been a real voyage of discovery for me.”

For his part, Itelman says Trepany is likely to continue in some form somewhere else, “although I am unclear where or when that somewhere will be,” he adds. “If anyone wants to help us, go to trepanyhouse.org and contact me. We will be staging Bride of Blood, a psychedelic bibliodrama, somewhere in 2018.”

“It's a horrific shock and a wake-up call to the communities that these art spaces made interesting and attractive in the first place. Steve Allen is a lovely, comfortable space with a private parking lot, in a pedestrian-friendly neighborhood,” laments Hoffman, who like many who perform there also admires the building's quirky history. “Framed on the walls are original Houdini signed letters and articles where he disproves psychics' claims about their seances. It's a very healthy and questioning atmosphere, where everything is allowed. In the America of 'the 45,' that is a treasure. Amit has sworn to find a new venue, and he will. But this is a cultural, spiritual and community loss of great measure.”

Pat Loud's Stars to Get Lost In, a Kurt Weill Tribute will feature Kristian Hoffman, Justin Tanner, Ann Magnuson, John Quale (aka Prince Poppycock), John Fleck (NEA Four), Abby Travis (Go-Go's, Bangles), Crissy Guererro, Pinky Turzo, Timur Bekbosunov, Ursula Gueringer,  Adele Bertei, Todd Lowe, Taquila Mockingbird, Steve Moramarco (Abe Lincoln Story), William Bongiovanni (El Vez band), Pierre Smith, Slim Evans, Kim Serene, Danny McGough, Paul Laques and more, Fri., Sept. 22, 8-11 p.m. at Trepany House, 4773 Hollywood Blvd., Los Feliz; $20. facebook.com/events/117438952257270 or trepanyhouse.org.
