BURNEY, Calif. (AP) - Thunderstorms that brought light rain and increased humidity to Northern California helped fire crews make progress Tuesday against two wildfires that were threatening hundreds of homes, but also raised the possibility of new lightning-sparked blazes in the region.

The two fires were burning in the Lassen National Forest. The smaller of the two was within sight of the small Shasta County town of Burney, though officials said it remained about 4 miles away after showing almost no growth overnight.

The small town of 3,000 was filled with smoke from the

blaze, but businesses were open as usual. Flames at the top of a mountain crest were no longer visible from a nearby vista point.

C r e w s i n c r e a s e d containment on the nearly 45-square-mile blaze from 10 to 20 percent. The fire has destroyed eight homes and was threatening a little more than 700 others, some of which were evacuated.

The nearby Bald Fire, which has burned through 62 square miles, forced the evacuation of about a dozen homes. Containment on that fire jumped from 20 percent to 30 percent overnight, U.S. Forest Service spokesman Jim Mackensen

said.He said officials were

looking to lift the evacuations, though he didn’t know when residents might be allowed to return home.

More lightning was forecast for the area, though Mackensen said he was hopeful the rain and damp conditions would prevent the blazes from starting fires.

The Eiler and Bald fires began within a day of each other and expanded ferociously through drought-killed or weakened trees and brush. The Bald Fire was sparked by lightning, but it’s unclear what

Legendary and long alpenhorns were in concert at the residence of Swiss Consul General Jean-Francois Lichtenstern on August 1, at that country’s consular residence in Los Angeles’ Hancock Park. The Consul General greeted

300 guests to the annual Swiss National Day celebration, but this year, there was something different thanks to Greg Purdy communications manager of the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway. “ This event was a diplomatic success on many levels!” said Ali M. Banki, a Tram fan.

Arriving guests were surprised to see an 8 x 10 ft

panoramic display of the San Jacinto mountains dominated by a rotating aerial tram captured in a gigantic photograph. Purdy told guests that Palm Springs shared a link with Switzerland since their mighty aerial tram was manufactured in their homeland. “The Tram is an international destination, with spectacular views from the second highest

point in southern California ( elev. 10,834 ‘) and welcomes guests from around the world with world-class facilities, from dining to camping and hiking,” he said.

Of course, this was a hit with guests, especially when Consul General Lichtenstern announced that two tickets to the tram would be awarded

to the holders of the winning ticket. Additionally, announced was the opening of Switzerland Tourism’s new office in Santa Monica, CA and various cultural events such as 4th annual The Los Angeles Swiss Film Festival at the Harmony Gold Theatre slated for September 7th.

British Comedy Scores High Marks In “Quartet”By Jack LyonsTheatre and Film Critic

No matter how famous one thinks they are it always comes as a shock when they discover that they can no longer perform whatever they did to make them famous in the first place. The spirit is always willing it’s the aging flesh and vocal cords that hammer home that epiphany in the current production now treading the boards on the Sheryl and Harvey White Stage at the Old Globe in Balboa Park.

P l a ywr i gh t Rona ld Harwood’s de l ight fu l l y charming comedy “Quartet” is playfully and zestfully directed by Richard Seer. The play’s core story of four aging grand opera singers who now reside in an English country home for retired musicians, simply stated, must make a decision: one to get along with one another and two to perform for their fellow residents a concert they promised when they first arrived a year ago.

Harwood’s deliciously sly comedy features four meaty roles for actors of a “certain age”, and those roles are filled by four actors who perform as though they were born for their parts: Old Globe favorite Robert Foxworth plays shy and introverted Reginald Paget, a fussy, classically trained singer, of the old school who bristles at the suggestive shenanigans and randy language of Wilfred Bond, portrayed by Roger Forbes who fancies himself as the retirement home lothario.

Jill Tanner as Cecily Robson is oblivious to the sexual blandishments of Wilfred, mainly because she wears headsets while listening to the music of their old operas every time Wilfred’s randiness gets the better of him. She is bubbly Miss Optimism, the rest of the time. Elizabeth Franz

portrays Jean Horton, the imperious grand dame of the opera world and the ex-wife of Reggie. When these “Three Musketeers” learn that Jean will be moving in as a permanent resident, all eyes and attention turn toward Reggie, who refuses to talk about the situation.

Foxworth is a character actor with a wonderful range. I fondly remember his Henry Drummond portrayal in “Inherit the Wind” at San Diego’s Old Globe, and his performances as Lyman Wyeth in “Other Desert Cities”, at the Taper and again at the Old Globe, among many others.

Roger Forbes makes his Old Globe debut with “Quartet”. After a distinguished 40 year career performing on stages in England and America, he is more than ready for his Globe debut. I suspect he’s performed a zillion of Alan

Ackybourn’s comedies along the way. His Wilfred Bond portrayal is bawdy but harmless, much like like a favorite lap dog whose bark is worse than his bite (and most of the women residents know it).

Elizabeth Franz who plays the imperious Jean Horton is as regal-looking as one would expect of a Diva of the opera. Demanding to a fault, even irritating to others, but if one looks a little deeper, one would find a very vulnerable and frightened lady who can’t come to grips with her retirement and thwarts all efforts of help.

The creative team led by director Seer has his A-team

working on this production. Set Design wizard Ralph Funicello places everyone in a proper-looking English retirement home. The only element missing would be the presence of the late great character actor Joyce Grenfell as the kooky lady in charge of the home. York Kennedy’s lighting and Christopher R. Walker’s sound design, along with costumes by Charlotte Devaux are first-rate contributors to a solid comedy production that has more than a few poignant messages to deliver along the way. On leaving the theatre, I overheard two couples saying, “this was so much better than

the movie.” The decision to present the play in the round on the intimate White Stage was a wise choice.

Speculating that 90 percent of the opening night audience is receiving Social Security benefits, I feel safe in saying this comedy is definitely a lock when it comes to appealing to seniors. But I wouldn’t rule out the younger set from enjoying the state of affairs the characters find themselves in. After all, retirement is a destination we’re heading toward, like it or not.

“Quartet” runs through August 24, 2014.

Attention rock music fans, do you dig Freddie Mercury and the sounds of Queen? If the answer is “YES!” come to the Ahmanson where “We Will Rock You” is partying on. The theatrical rock musical, based on the songs written by Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Roger Taylor and John Deacon , except for “Under Pressure” which was written by Queen and David Bowie, runs through August 24. The story and script are by Ben Elton. Brian Justin Crum and Ruby Lewis star as the two young rock

lovers Galileo and Scaramouche respectively.

The frothy, flimsy story is set in the not too distant future. Horror of horrors, Killer Queen (Jacqueline B. Arnold) is a music media mogul who has banned all rock music from the earth. Now kids can only swing to the sounds of sappy elevator music. But two young rebels refuse to conform and set out to find the music that Galileo dreams about. He is certain it exists—somewhere out there.

Even if you’ve never heard of “I Want to Break Free,” “No One But You,” or “Who Wants to Live Forever,” you will recognize the sounds, of “We Will Rock You” and the sports fan favorite, “We Are the Champions.”

On opening night the audience roared and waved light sticks of green and lavender (provided by the theatre that evening.) The music rocks and the ensemble cast knows how to sing it. The vibe created is infectious.

••••••••••••••If you are a comic book fan

you will marvel at Marvel Comics fun fantasy film “Guardians of the Galaxy,” directed and co-written by James Gunn. It was brought to the screen for $170 million, but probably earned it back in its first week because like “Star Wars” before it, it’s funny, fast-paced and filled with wild and crazy characters that include three human looking types as well as a gun toting raccoon named Rocket (voiced with zest and spunk by Bradley Cooper) whose sidekick is a tall talking tree named Groot (Vin Diesel who also was the voice for “The Iron Giant” a great animated film from yesteryear). Groot has a limited vocabulary of three words—”I AM GROOT,” which he uses to convey all sorts of emotions. And while the

human-like galaxy dwellers are interesting, the raccoon and tree kinda steal the show.

As the story begins, a young boy is beamed up onto a space ship and taken to a galaxy far, far away. His most prized possession is a home-made music tape his mother made for him with the songs of the 70s that she loved. Next we fast forward to the future. It’s 26 years later, and the little boy is now a young man named Peter Quill (played with comedic charm and attitude by Chris Pratt (TVs “Parks and Recreation”). He works for a group of intergalactic plunderers and calls himself Star Lord which doesn’t impress the countless interplanetary types he runs into as he seeks to find

a powerful orb that all sorts of folks want to get their hands on, including the villain of the piece, an evil dude named Ronan the Accuser (Lee Pace).

Add Zoe Saldana to the cast as Gamora, the deadliest gal in the galaxy who is green, not blue as she was in “Avatar” and a multi tattooed brute named Drax the Destroyer (former WWE wrestling champion Dave Bautista). Due to circumstances beyond their control, the soon to be “Guardians of the Galaxy” all wind up in an outer-space prison as evil forces controlled by Ronan seek to get their hands on the powerful, coveted orb. Mutual distrust and dislike eventually evaporate as the future guardians to be forced to

work together in order to escape. There are all sorts of special

effects, intergalactic battles and high jinks, but what makes the movie work is the humor. The plot is confusing at first as we find ourselves all over the planets, however, things come into comic book focus eventually as this odd intergalactic group morphs into the “Guardians of the Galaxy.” And as the story ends we know there will be a sequel in the not too distant future.

“Guardians of the Galaxy” is rated PG-13 for intense sequences of sci-fi violence and action and for some language. Running time is two hours and two minutes.

Toto, Michael McDonaldWhere: Special Events Center at Fantasy Springs Resort Casino in IndioWhen: Saturday, Aug. 9 at 8 p.m.Ticket information: 800-827-2946 or www.totoofficial.com. 

More than 35 years after making a lasting commercial impact with the band’s eponymous 1978 album, Toto likely surprised plenty of industry observers with the release of “35th Anniversary - Live in Poland” that reached the top of the music DVD sales charts around the globe earlier this year.

Toto’s resurgence has also came as a surprise to Toto guitarist Steve Lukather, part of the group of students who met at Grant High School in Van Nuys, CA and went on to form the band in 1977.

“I can’t believe the thing entered #1 in the United States and Germany and the Netherlands and all over the world - it’s just crazy,” admitted Lukather, when asked about the success of Toto’s aptly-titled ‘35th Anniversary - Live in Poland’ DVD/Blu-ray release that came out in late April. “We’re laughing, ‘Come on, is this an April Fools’ joke?’ Because we’re the least hyped band ever. We’re the opposite.”

Toto’s “35th Anniversary - Live in Poland” did indeed debut at #1 in the U.S., Germany, The Netherlands, Belgium, Finland and Sweden, and charted at #2 in the United Kingdom, France and Canada. Toto will bring their parade of hits and impressive virtuoso chops to the Fantasy Springs Resort Casino in Indio on Saturday night, Aug. 9.

“We never thought that in

a million years, we’d be looking at almost 40-year man. First off, where did the time go? We’re still here, we’re still healthy and we’re okay,” said Lukather of Toto, whose lineup also includes original members David Paich (lead vocals, keyboards), Steve Porcaro (keyboards) and long-time lead vocalist Joseph Williams.

“Those of us who are still healthy, I think that’s the greatest commodity one can have at this point. I mean it’s scary; a lot of my friends are down. (Original bassist) Mike Porcaro, that’s the reason why we sort of reconvened (in 2010) to help brother Mikey. He got ALS (amytrophic lateral sclerosis, better known as Lou Gehrig’s

disease), and he’s lying in a bed...We help out the family, we help out our brother; he would do it for me. That’s basically a little more bittersweet, do you know what I mean? Mikey standing next to me on stage, he’s my bro., But we help the family, and we do what we do, and we keep the music alive. There’s really not much more we can do.”

While Toto’s current tour is focusing on material such as “Rosanna,” “Africa” and “Hold the Line” on the top-selling “Live in Poland,”Toto is nearing completion on its next studio album, the first since 2006’s “Falling in Between.”

“We’re a lmost done recording. We’re going to start mixing…It’s going to surprise a lot of people. It does not sound like a bunch of old guys phoning it in for a check, you know. It’s a really true Toto record.”

As a tribute to Mike Porcaro, a number of celebrated bass players are involved in the project. During the July 24, 2014 phone interview, Lukather revealed that David Hungate, Toto’s original bassist who was with the band from 1977 to 1982, was coming into the studio in late July to record some tracks.

“So everything is moving along quite positively. Our 14th record - here we go.”

No chat with Lukather would be complete without getting the celebrated guitarist (whose credits include recording with everybody from Michael Jackson to Eddie Van Halen) to discuss his membership in Ringo Starr’s All Starr Band since 2012.

“I have to say its been a highlight of my career being with Ringo, and we’ve become really great friends and I love everyone

in the band and we get on so great. And the band has gotten so much better than a few years ago,” Lukather said.

Imagine Lukather’s thrill at being invited to join Frampton, musical director Don Wash and others at the Los Angeles Convention Center at the beginning of 2014 for “The Night That Changed America: A GRAMMY Salute To The Beatles,” a CBS-TV special featuring not only Ringo Starr and Paul McCartney, but Stevie Wonder, Katy Perry, Pharrell Williams and John Legend. After all, Lukather was a 7-year-old youngster that was inspired to play guitar after hearing George Harrison’s solo,

on “I Saw Her Standing There.”“The surreality of it was

when I was standing there right before we all went on stage to film the show - there’s Paul, there’s Ringo, we were all talking backstage …a bunch of us guys standing around with Paul and Ringo, and I go, ‘You two guys are the reason that we are all here. All of us.’ And Paul was very sweet, ‘We get that a lot.’ They never talk about that; they don’t carry themselves like that even though they are the most important musicians of the past 50 years…they’re still the litmus test upon which everything stands.”

PALM SPRINGS, CA – An aspiring athlete’s biggest fear is suffering a career-ending injury.

When Palm Springs POWER first baseman and pitcher Mitch Bluman finished his sophomore season at San Diego State University, he was looking to become a serious contributor the following year.

In the winter prior to the 2013 Mountain West Conference season, however, Mitch suffered an injury that changed the Southern California native’s baseball future, indefinitely.

“My junior year I was pitching in a winter league game and I came down awkwardly,” Bluman said. “My leg stuck in the ground, I turned, and I felt everything just slip out of place.”

The San Diego State Aztec suffered a herniated disc, and to severely complicate the situation, the disc was jammed into the sciatic nerve – the longest nerve in the human body, stretching from the lower back to the top of the foot.

“I couldn’t get in and out of a car, I couldn’t do anything,” he said. “It felt like someone was jabbing a knife from my ankle to my back. My whole right leg was dead.”

Instead of opting for surgery and spending significant time rehabbing, Mitch chose a heavy dose of various medications, painkillers, corticosteroids and even an epidural shot to help ease the pain through his junior season.

His discomfort slightly diminished, but was reduced to only 2.1 innings pitched, and

44 plate appearances for an Aztecs team that made it all the way to the College World Series Regional Finals.

In the first Aztec’s practice of Bluman’s senior offseason, his body would suffer another blow that would cause him to redshirt the 2014 season.

“I bent down, and the (epidural) shot, all the stuff that was keeping it numb, broke up,” he said. “Instantly, the pain was

back and more severe. I knew it was time to get it fixed, I knew I was eventually going to have surgery.”

The El Camino Real High School alum needed a Laminectomy, a procedure that involves filing down the protruding vertebrae until it is no longer lodged in the nerve. With what he had been through, it was not hard to rationalize having the surgery.

“I didn’t want to take a chance at it getting worse, and risk losing the ability to walk because I was gimping around campus for a whole year,” Bluman said. “Either spend the next six months to a year being the same, or spend the next six months to a year getting better, and getting ready for year of healthy baseball.”

Init ial ly, his doctors anticipated a nine-month recovery period, November to July. With hard work, determination, perseverance and an excellent rehab program, the Woodland Hills, CA native was throwing and working out just five months after his operation.

“The first two months after were spent not doing anything, just laying in bed, trying to recover,” Bluman said. “(Rehab) started off with real basic stuff. Just lying down on a table, flexing my core. It felt ridiculous at first but it’s a long process, and if you stick to it, and it pays off.”

His inevitable surgery did pay off in the grand scheme, but despite the speedy recuperation, Bluman was still forced to sit out his entire senior season.

Due to Mitch’s expedited recovery, the San Diego State coaches suggested that playing for the POWER this summer would help prepare him for his final season of eligibility as an Aztec.

This year, the POWER lefty has a 1-1 record, with a 2.35 ERA in 23 innings pitched. Offensively, he is batting .222, including a double, and 4 RBIs in 18 at-bats

To maintain game shape over summer, Bluman has been working out on a daily basis, making it easy for POWER head Coach Harry Gurley to platoon him at first base, and pitch for the SCCBL’s first-place team.

The Aztec admits that he is roughly 75 percent of what he used to be, and has not yet regained his pre-injury stamina, at least from the mound.

“I can’t throw as many innings as I used to,” the POWER pitcher said. “If I throw five innings, I feel like I went 20 rounds with Mike Tyson.”

He may not be back to full strength, but Mitch is vastly benefiting from pitching in game situations and hitting live pitching with the Palm Springs club.

Had it not been for the POWER organization’s willingness to take a risk, Bluman would have entered fall practice less prepared then the Aztec teammates he will competing against for a starting spot.

“They really gave me a chance, where as most places would not even bother,” he said. “Harry has been nothing but helpful for me, (Andrew) Starke, as well. They knew I was going to have some bumps and bruises, some ups and downs, and they have still stuck with me.”

After this summer, Mitch’s plan is to head back to San Diego, relax and prepare for the upcoming 2015 season. After the last year and a half, relaxation should be at the top of his list.

ignited the Eiler blaze near Burney.

The summer wildfires didn’t come as a surprise. Fire officials had been warning of dangerous conditions because of the drought. But the speed and fury of the Eiler Fire was disconcerting and terrifying, some evacuees said Monday at a shelter set up at a local school.

“Trees were just exploding,” said Dennis Hoffman, who left the community of Cassel last week as flames roared through forests on either side of his home. “It was like a big monster - just unbelievable, how bad it was.”

More than a dozen wildfires are burning in the state.

Elsewhere in the West:

- Cooler temperatures and scattered showers helped firefighters hold the line on the Oregon Gulch fire in the Siskiyou Mountains straddling the Oregon-California border. The fire remains at 57 square miles and is 30 percent contained.

- Residents of 14 homes near Leavenworth, Washington, have been advised to evacuate while crews keep a wary eye on winds near the 65-acre Hansel Fire. Crews in Washington were also worried the Duncan Fire outside of Entiat could grow. The Hansel and Duncan fires are part of the Chiwaukum complex that has covered about 26 square miles.

Amidst a menu of Swiss specialties, including plum and apricot cake accompanied by bowls of fresh whipped cream and platters of Swiss cheese ( of course), guests were brought up to date on Swiss cultural events. The Palm Springs International Film Festival counts Switzerland as one of its sponsors.

Greg Purdy conversed with guests while providing tram information in nine languages. “The Tram just celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2013,” said Purdy as he reminded arriving guests to expect “14,000 acres of pristine wilderness area with more than 54-miles of hiking trails that bears a strong resemblance to the Swiss

Alps. Taking the Tram reveals the magnificent Nature Trail, the fern lined Alpine meadow and the breathtaking view from Wellman’s Divide.”

For those of Swiss heritage, this day is as important to them as the Fourth of July is to Americans. Consul General Lichtenstern concluded his address by telling guests of his recent visit to the Tram and his vivid impressions of Mount San Jacinto, the spectacular views and his appreciation for Mr. Purdy for participating in the 2014 Swiss National Day event.
