The Lone Pine Unified
School District will officially
have a new superintendent at
the beginning of the school
year in July ­– but one with a
familiar face.
Susie Patton, district
school board president, said
Friday that interim
Superintendent/elementary
school Principal Heidi Torix
will take the district’s helm
on July 1, technically the start
of the new school year.
Torix replaces Dr. Sean
Cianfarano, who had been
hired in 2014 but was put on
paid administrative leave in
mid-December.
While Patton couldn’t
address the situation with
Cianfarano specifically, she
did say that, in general,
school officials can be put on

Airport oops – everyone’s fine
A small plane landing at Furnace Creek Airport was heavily damaged when it ran off the end of the runway. Fortunately, there were
no injuries to the family of three people on board. The Cessna 421
airplane was attempting to land at 10:45 a.m. on Wednesday, April

Girl Scout
leader retires
after 45 years of
volunteer service
By Kristina Blüm
Register Staff
Make new friends but keep
the old, one is silver and the
other gold.
For the many girls
throughout the Eastern Sierra
who have participated in Girl
Scouts over the years, Theona
Wasson has become a friend
like gold. After 45 years of
volunteering for the Girl
Scouts, she will be retiring,
with a celebration to be held
at 2 p.m. this afternoon at
Astorga’s.
“Theona has been a great
role model for our girls and
our leaders,” Yvonne
Freeman, a local Girl Scout
troop leader, said. “She has a
wealth of knowledge about
Girl Scouts and her willingness to share with us has
benefited so many people. We
will truly miss her fun personality and all that she
offers our local girl scouts.
We hope she stays in touch
and comes by to join us when
she has time. We all wish her
well.”
“I’ve kept going because I
have interest in helping the
girls,” Wasson said. “I think I
get more out of it than the
girls do because they energize me and we share an
awful lot of laughs. I wouldn’t
trade that for anything.”
Wasson has served as a
Service Unit manager, a troop
leader, treasurer, camp and
event coordinator in addition
to serving wherever there was
a need. She also is a recipient
of the Thanks badge, one of
the highest honors presented
by the Girl Scout organization. She also served on staff
with the Girl Scouts for three
years but she missed being
with the girls so much that
she quit and returned to her
troop. Wasson also is one of
218 Lifetime Girl Scout
Members in the Sierra Nevada
Council.
“I am not into this for any
recognition,” Wasson said. “I
don’t look for that. I like
interacting with the kids most
of all.”
A lot has changed over the
years. Wasson said the materials used for troop leadership have evolved to a point
where now, much of the
materials for the parents and
leaders are available online.

Did you know?
It’s the forked bone between the neck and breast of a bird.
But that’s the wishbone, I almost hear you cry. Indeed it is,
but merrythought is the older term for that part of a turkey,
chicken or other fowl served at table.
Wishbone was created in America; from the evidence, it
seems to have appeared sometime around the 1850s, but has
since taken over everywhere. But merrythought was still
the more common term in America and Britain until about
1900. Here’s an American example, from Mrs. Goodfellow’s
Cookery as it Should Be, published in Philadelphia in 1865:
Remove the merrythought and neck bones next, this you will
accomplish by inserting the knife and forcing it under the
bones, raise it and it will readily separate from the breast.
origin:
1600-10; so called from the custom of pulling the bone apart
until it breaks, the person holding the longer (sometimes
shorter) piece supposedly marrying first or being granted a
wish at the time

SATURDAY, APRIL 16, 2016 A-3
Medicare and Covered California
If you become eligible for
Medicare and have health
insurance through Covered
California, what are your
options?
Here is some information
to help guide you.
First, a brief overview of
what Medicare covers. Part A
covers inpatient hospital
stays, care in a skilled nursing
facility, hospice care, and
some home health care at 80%
with some deductibles and copayments, and a possible premium. Part B covers certain
doctors’ services, outpatient
care, medical supplies, and
preventive services at 80%,
with a monthly premium and
$166 per year deductible.
Most people also have a Medigap insurance plan to pay the
remaining 20% of costs and
possibly deductibles and copayments, with a monthly
premium. Medicare Part D
covers prescription drugs,
with a monthly premium,
copayments and possible
deductibles.
The majority of people do
not pay a monthly premium
for Part A. If you or your
spouse have paid FICA tax for
10 years or more, you will not
pay a premium for Part A.
It is important to know
that if you are eligible for Part
A without a premium, you will
no longer receive any tax credits or cost-sharing subsidies
for Covered California plans.
These credits and subsidies
end when you become eligible
Kathy Kelty
HICAP Counselor
for premium-free Part A,
whether you are enrolled in
Medicare or not. You will have
to pay back any credits and
subsidies you receive for
Covered CA after you became
eligible for Medicare.
If you are entitled to Part A
without a premium, it’s advisable to enroll in Medicare and
terminate your plan with
Covered CA. If you’re receiving Social Security benefits
before you turn 65, or are
receiving Social Security
Disability Insurance (SSDI),
you will automatically be
enrolled in Medicare when you
become eligible, and do not
need to do anything with
Covered CA.
If you are not receiving
Social Security benefits or
SSDI, you need to voluntarily
enroll in Medicare when you
become eligible at age 65, and
contact your Covered CA plan
to terminate it, giving them
the date you will be eligible
for Medicare.
If you are low income (and
meet other requirements) you
may be eligible for additional
coverage through Medi-Cal,
which works like having a
Medi-gap, and pays for Part D.
You can enroll in Medi-Cal
through Covered California. If
you are not eligible for MediCal there are other progams
that may help with Medicare
costs; contact county social
services or HICAP for more
information.
When you are enrolled in
Medicare, you are not eligible
to purchase a Covered CA
plan, subsidized or unsubsidized. It is illegal for someone
to knowingly sell you coverage
that duplicates what Medicare
provides.
Covered CA does not offer
Medi-gap or Part D prescription drug policies.
If you will pay a premium
for Part A, you may want to
decide between having
Medicare with a Medi-gap, or
having a Covered CA health
plan. There are several things
to consider.
Are the Medicare premiums more or less than the
premium for the Covered CA
plan? Add premiums for Part
A (up to $411 per month),
Part B ($121.80 per month), a
Part D prescription drug plan,
and a Medi-gap plan, and
compare to the premium for
the Covered CA plan. (If you
will pay for Part A, you may
be eligible for premium assistance and cost-sharing subsidies for a Covered CA plan,
depending on your income.)
Also compare other costs
and benefits.
For example, a Silver 70
plan with Covered CA has a
medical deductible of $2,250
and a prescription deductible
of $250.
Depending on what coverage you will have through
Medicare with a Medi-gap
plan, you may not have these
deductibles.
Your Covered CA plan may
also include benefits Medicare
does not, such as accupunture.
Covered CA plans set an
annual limit on out-of-pocket
expenses; Medicare does not.
Covered CA plans may
require the use of a network
of health care providers;
Medicare does not.
Another consideration is
late enrollment penalities.
Having a Covered CA plan
does not exempt you from
paying Part A and Part B late
enrollment penalties if you
later switch to Medicare, or
disenroll from Medicare and
re-enroll later.
These penalties increase
over time.
If you miss your Initial
Enrollment Period for
Medicare (the three months
before your 65th birthday
month, your 65th birthday
month, and the three months
after) or miss the General
Enrollment Period, Jan. 1
through March 31 each year,
there may be a delay before
you can switch from Covered
CA to Medicare. Remember
that if you sign up for
Medicare during the General
Enrollment Period, coverage
does not start until July 1 of
that year.

Spring Horse

Right now, in any American hospital, about half of the patients
have a prescription for an acid-reducing drug to reduce heartburn
or prevent bleeding in their stomach and gut. But that wellintentioned drug may actually boost their risk of dying during
their hospital stay, a new study finds – by opening them up
to infections that pose more risk than bleeding would. In fact,
according to a computer simulation based on real-world risk and
Dwayne Wilson
benefit data, around 90 percent of hospital inpatients who were
first prescribed these drugs in the hospital have a higher risk of dying when they’re taking
them, compared with their risk if they hadn’t gotten the prescription. And for around
80 percent of patients who were already on these common drugs, called proton-pump
inhibitors or PPIs, when they arrived at the hospital, staying on them also may lead to
a small increase in the risk of dying. The extra risk of death comes from the fact that
reducing acid in the stomach can increase the risk of infections – especially pneumonia
and Clostridium difficile, both of which pose a serious risk to hospitalized patients who
develop them. The study, which uses a computer model to achieve a result that otherwise
would require an impractically large clinical trial, is published in the Journal of General
Internal Medicine.
We are now compounding “all natural estrogen hormone replacement” as prescribed by your

Using antibiotics alone to treat children with uncomplicated acute appendicitis is a
reasonable alternative to surgery when chosen by the family. A study published in JAMA
Surgery found that three out of four children with uncomplicated appendicitis have been
successfully treated with antibiotics alone at one-year follow-up. Compared to urgent
appendectomy, non-operative management was associated with less recovery time, lower
health costs and no difference in the rate of complications at one year.

Trying to wait patiently
for the massive
total disaster to strike
That could have been a huge mistake. I should have thought about it
before deciding to do it. Now I can’t stop it. Man oh man. That’s what I
get for acting without considering the consequences. Now all I can do is
wait. And hope. And maybe some praying.
I guess I’ll just have to wait and to see if it
turns into a total disaster. However, I haven’t seen
any horror stories on Twitter or Facebook about it
actually being a total disaster, so there’s hope.
And Facebook and Twitter are the experts, right?
I’ll just try to be patient. And try to not to
jump up and shut down the whole operation.
Jumping into the middle of it once it’s started is a
sure-fire recipe for a disaster.
I’ll just focus on something else and try not to
think of it.

Pudding. Chocolate pudding. That’s the newest
addition to the produce section at Vons. No kidOPINION
ding. And since it’s in the produce section, it’s
healthy, right? It looks like there are going to be four new restaurants
opening in Bishop this summer. Imagine that. Hey, is global warming
why it’s already hot enough to run the air conditioner in the car in the
afternoon? Oh, and my little car just turned over 172,000 miles.
Amazing. And it’s an American car, no less. Of course, it makes some
strange, sounds – like rocks in a blender. Are those orange mallows
blooming on the edges of 395? Not sure, but that’s about the only
native plant I can name. They are right alongside big clumps of “little
yellow flowers,” which is their Latin name, I’m sure. Anyway, it is the
first time anything’s bloomed around here for a couple of years, right?
Hmmm. Maybe I should just get up and check it. No. At this stage of
the process I’ll only mess it up. Leave it alone. Stop thinking about it.
Regular season NBA games are horrible. Boring. No one plays
defense. As predictable as pro soccer. Hey, our “lady” US soccer players
are getting ripped off, right? They win all the time and are charismatic
stars and make way less money than the men – criminal. Someone call
Bernie Sanders. Did you see that the cost of a First Class U.S. Stamp just
went down by one cent? No kidding. How in the world did that happen?
The Post Office must be making money hand over fist delivering billions
of trinkets from Amazon, or something, since no one mails letters anymore.
Hey, wait a minute. It looks like it’s finished. I wonder if it worked.
Maybe a little prayer first. Okay, now, let’s look. Oh no. No. No. No.
You’ve got to be kidding. This can’t be right. Arrrrgh: “Widows 10 has
successfully downloaded.” Great. But now, it’s “preparing to install.”
And after that, I’ll have to reboot my computer so it will install the new
Windows 10, which could take up to another 90 minutes and hopefully
won’t completely destroy eight years of everything on my computer and
make it so I can’t even turn the darn thing on.
This is torture.
I’m going to go clean out my refrigerator.

Theona Wasson, fifth from left in the back row with other scout leaders, took part in first-aid training
in 2012 at the Girl Scout House in Bishop. Also pictured are, from left, leaders Joni Ferrell, Kim

evolving, adapting to the
needs and interests of girls in
the 21st century.
“It has been very interesting to watch the evolution
throughout the recent years,”
Wasson said, “Women are
stepping up, chipping in and
helping out.”
When the Girl Scouts was
first created, the badges were
presented for accomplishments in subjects like sewing.
Wasson said the badges have
evolved over the years, now
incorporating science, technology, conservation and
other subjects geared towards
modern issues as part of the
program, which helps prepare
girls to be strong contributors
in their communities.
“When I started, the local
troop was in a slump,” Wasson
said, “We had a junior troop
and it has grown. Right now,
we have a super organization
with lots of young people
coming in and looking forward to helping with the
girls.”
While much has changed,
Wasson said many of the traditions have remained the
same since the beginning.
The Girl Scout Motto is “Be
Prepared,” which the 1947
handbook explains, “A girl
scout is ready to help out
wherever she is needed.
Willingness to serve is not
enough; you must know how
to do the job well, even in an
emergency.” This principle of
preparedness and service
holds true for Girl Scouts even
today, as have the core principles of friendship and sisterhood.
Looking back over her
many years as a volunteer,
Wasson said it is hard to
choose just one memory, but
if she had to, she recalls
watching the girls climb up
hills for various reasons, once
at one of her early camps and
once at Catalina Island. The
girls’ flashlights twinkled
through the night as they
climbed up the hills, all in a
line.
“It was beautiful to see the
trail of lights flickering up the
hill,” Wasson said. Some of
her other favorite moments
were of campfires and ceremonies.
Amber Aiton, director of
development and communication for the Sierra Nevada
Council, said Theona Wasson
saved the Girl Scout Bishop
Scout House.
“During the economic
downturn there was discussion about the possibility of
closing the beloved scout
house due to funding,” Aiton
said. “In true Girl Scout fashion, Theona rallied city officials, volunteers, local donors
and the community at large,
effectively ensuring Girl
Scouts could continue to
learn, grow and meet at the
Bishop Scout House.”
“When we get together, we
sing the same songs and laugh
together at the same jokes,”
Wasson said. She also said she
loves the traditions, especially
the campfire and candlelight
ceremonies.
“I enjoy them, I really do,”
Wasson said of the traditions.
“They bring people together,
just like singing.”
Wherever Wasson travels,
she tries to visit Girl Scout
troops. She said she has visited troops all over the country
and even some international-

ly.
As for imparting wisdom
to future Girl Scout volunteers, Wasson said, “Have fun,
because if you aren’t having
fun, neither are the girls. If
you are having fun and doing
what you love to do, they will
catch the spirit of it as well.”
“There are many reasons
for girls to join Girl Scouts,”
Wasson said. “They learn to
have courage and speak up.
They learn respect, moral
character and enjoy being
together and knowing that
there will be a sister in Girl
Scouts somewhere for them.
They just need to enjoy the
ride.”
Wasson said she feels good
about stepping down now
because the Girl Scout troops
in the Eastern Sierra are going
strong. However, she will not
being giving up Girl Scouts
entirely. She still is involved in
a singing group, as well as a
friendship knot group that
makes and sends friendship
knots to Girl Scouts and alumni who are going through difficult times.
While Wasson is stepping
down from her capacity as a
Girl Scout volunteer, her dedication to young girls remains
as she will be spending lots of
time with her granddaughter,
who will be bridging from
Daisy to Brownie this year.
“Not only is Theola passionate about the Girl Scout
mission, she has boldly paved
the way for every girl in Bishop
to build courage, confidence
and Character,” Pam Czyz,
chief executive Officer for Girl
Scouts Sierra Nevada Council
said. “We are honored to call
Theona a champion of Girl
Scouting.”

tours Sunday morning in addition to Saturday.
“Saturday morning there
will be 11 tours, Saturday
afternoon there will be 11
tours and Sunday morning
there will be 11 more tours,”
Prather said.
With the rechanneling of
the Lower Owens River and
the dust mitigation measures
required of the DWP, Owens
Lake is being restored into a
recreational area as well as a
resting place for migratory
birds.
“Thanks to the dust mitigation and the efforts of years of
hard work by community
members and concerned citizens, there is water in Owens
Lake,” Beardsley said. “As the
water has returned to the lake,
birds have once again returned
on their historic migration
routes.”
“In recent years, more than
100,000 migrating birds have
moved through Owens Lake
on their seasonal migrations,”
Beardsley said. “The lake and
the surrounding area host
American Avocets with their
upturned bills and toasted
orange heads, black-necked
stilts, and nesting snowy plovers among a host of other
shore birds, water fowl and
riparian areas.”
The festival is not just for
bird enthusiasts. Beardsley
said there will be tours showcasing geology, wildlife and
mining history as well as discussions about lake bed management, conservation and
dust mitigation while providing water to Los Angeles.
“The landscapes and history of Owens Lake and the
Lower Owens Valley are spectacular,” Beardsley said. “The
festival provides unique opportunities to explore these places
for birders and non-birders
alike.”
Prather has been collecting
data about bird migration on
Owens Lake since the early
1980s, long before the law
suits that required the DWP to
do dust control on the lake.
“I have been able to see
what happened before and
since the dust mitigation,”
Prather said. “The lake has
attracted tens of thousands of
birds.”
Prather said it has been an
interesting journey, finding
balance between water conservation, controlling the dust
and providing for large
amounts of habitat area on the
lake bed.
“It has been a very creative
process and it has been very
rewarding because it has been
successful,” Prather said. “This
is a place where something
has come back here, a little bit
by accident, this heritage and
wildlife use area has been
brought back to Owens Lake
and that is a huge success. It
was done by working together.
We worked out the solution
among us, and this is a model
to repeat.”
“It is remarkable what the
place has gone through – 100
years of dry lake bed and dust
storms,” Ben Wickhem, a staff
member for Friends of the
Inyo, said. “If you had asked
anybody especially a decade
ago in the height of animosity
and law suits, would Owens
Lake ever be rejuvenated like it
is now, I think they would have
had a hard time imagining it
turning out this way. I sense
optimism in the local community in Lone Pine. Thousands
of birds are back, there is
water on the lake bed and
where there isn’t water, there’s
other measures being taken to
curb dust and restore habitat.
It’s beautiful out there now.”
Tickets for the festival will
be $60 for adults, $30 for students. Most of the tours will be
held twice.

“We have a confidential
personnel agreement,” Patton
said. “We are limited in what
we can talk about (regarding
Cianfarano).”
Patton said the board members did have some concerns
about Cianfarano’s “inexperience.”
“There were some issues,”
she said.
Cianfarano was an interim
principal in Coleville before
coming to Lone Pine.
The former superintendent, who also served as the
elementary school principal,
turned in his resignation on
March 16 and the school
board accepted it.
Patton said Torix, who has
been working for the Lone

years as principal at Lo-Inyo,

superintendent
since
Cianfarano was put on paid
administrative leave.
Patton said she sees the
immediate priorities for Torix,
who, along with the rest of the
district was on spring break
this week, will be “pulling
everything back together, getting everything back in line
where things belong.”
“She has been doing an
amazing job,” Patton said,
adding that Torix has been
wearing three hats since
December ­– interim superintendent, high school principal
and elementary school princi-
pal. “She is a unifying force.”
Patton said Torix’s next
priority will be looking for a
teacher/high school principal
to fill her own position. The
high school principal is
expected to teach a class or
two.
“We’re a small district,”
Patton said. “We all have to
multi-task.”
A drop in numbers
And the district continues
to get smaller, Patton said.
“We are going kind of
downhill right now,” she said,
“especially at the high
school.”
The latest numbers show
the district student population at 326 with fewer than
100 students at the high
school.
A drop in student population means a drop in funding,
she said.
“It’s impacting us a lot,”
Patton said. “But there’s no
way to control that.”
She said the mitigation
work at Owens Lake is going
into a new phase that doesn’t
require as many workers “and
those families move away.”
Patton said the district also
is taking a hit in tax contributions.
As an example she said the
Coso Geothermal Plant operation located in Southern Inyo
County, which is the district’s
biggest tax contributor, is seeing a slow down in production.
“They don’t pay as much in
taxes as they did before,” she
said.
Continued from front page
ity standards for the first
time.
The plan includes the
terms of a stipulated court
judgment by the Superior
Court in Sacramento County
requiring the city of Los
Angeles Department of Water
and Power to complete the
nation’s largest particulate air
pollution control project on
the dried Owens Lake bed.
The district also adopted a
new rule and order to LADWP
to implement the plan. The
plan will next be submitted to
the California Air Resources
Board
and
the
U.S.
Environmental
Protection
Agency for approval and
adoption under the federal
Clean Air Act.
Milad Taghavi, DWP’s manager of Owens Lake Regulatory
Affairs
and
Long-Term
Planning, said the plan is what
was agreed upon in 2014.
“There are a few new elements but we are fine with
that,” Taghavi said.
Phillip Kiddoo, air pollution control officer for the
district, said Friday this is one
of the more significant implementation plans from a series
of implemented plans that go
back to 1998.
The first state implementation plan in 1998 ordered
DWP to control the dust coming off of Owens Lake that
was causing a public health
hazard.
“It was the first plan and
enforceable order to the city
of Los Angels issued under
authority of California Health
and Saftey Code 42316 that
held them responsible for
mitigating the particulat pollution from the dried Owens
Lake bed,” Kiddoo said.
For 102 years, LADWP’s
water diversions into the Los
Angeles Aqueduct created the
dried Owens Lake bed, the
largest source of dust pollution in the country, resulting
in severe adverse health
impacts to the area’s local
communities.
Another state implementation plan was adopted in
2003, which added new areas
of the lake that LADWP would
have to mitigate dust totaling
29.8 square miles.
In 2007, the Environmental
Protection Agency issued a
failure at attain air quality for
public health and required the
district to write another plan.
In 2008, the total dust control project was increased to
45 square miles.
In 2011 and 2012, additional controls were required
and issued to DWP based on
monitored dust emissions.
This led to seven lawsuits
filed by the city of Los Angeles
against the board, which the
city ultimately lost with the
stipulated court judgment.
The
plan
adopted
Wednesday requires LADWP
to complete an additional 3.6
square miles of dust controls
on the lake bed, bringing the
total to 48.6 square miles, and
allows the district to require
an additional 4.8 square miles
of controls if needed to attain
the air quality standards.
Taghavi said the district
has yet to identify the additional square miles.
“We have controlled 45
square miles,” he said, adding
that the district’s monitoring
shows that these efforts have
controlled 96 percent of the
dust pollution.
He said by December of
2017 the control rate will be
at 99 percent. Kiddoo agreed
with this estimate.
The plan also allows
LADWP to use new water-saving measures to control the
pollution, including tilling the
lake bed with the back-up of
shallow flooding as needed,
dynamic water management
to more closely align the controls with the emission seasons and utilization of brine
in dust control areas.
Immediate water savings
will be enough water to supply hundreds of thousands of
people.
“This plan will allow the
citizens of the Owens Valley
to breathe some of the cleanest air in the country and save
water,” Kiddoo said. “More
than 75,000 tons of dust per
year have been controlled
with dust mitigation implementation at Owens Lake,
making this the largest air
pollution project in the history of the United States. We
also look forward to a new
day of cooperation with
LADWP to protect the health
of our communities and the
environment.”
The full plan is available on
the district web site at www.
gbuapcd.org.
Taghavi said current mitigation efforts are made up of
a mix of vegetation, use of
gravel and shallow flooding.
Since 2000, DWP has spent
about $1.6 billion in dust mitigation efforts and it is estimated to hit a total of about
$1.8 billion by December
2017, Taghavi said.
The city of LA funds the
monitoring programs at
Owens and Mono lakes.
“It’s a wonderful, collaborative effort,” Taghavi said of
the relationship between DWP
and the district.
He said the two organizations will be looking at other
issues as well, such as greater
water conservation for the
lake as well as maintaining
wildlife habitats.
“We are looking forward to
a continued collaborations
with the community and other
partners,” Amanda Parsons,
with LADWP Public Relations,
said Friday.

A-10 SATURDAY, APRIL 16, 2016 The pros and cons of removing
shoes
Dear Annie: “Clean Shoes
in Wisconsin” objected to his
sister-in-law asking him to
remove his shoes in her
house. Yikes. Outdoor shoes
in the house? The University
of Houston did a study and
found that 39 percent of
shoes contained the bacteria
C. diff. In Japan, as well as in
many Asian and Scandinavian
countries, shoes are removed.
It would be a kindness, as
you suggested, to provide
slippers at the door. Guests
could also bring their own.
– Maria in New Mexico
Dear Maria: We had a
mountain of responses to
this letter. Several readers
directed us to the study you
mention, and another by the
University of Arizona. Both
tested people’s shoes and
discovered nine different
species of bacteria, many of
which can cause infections in
our stomachs, eyes and
lungs. The studies found that
bacteria live longer on our
shoes than on anything else,
and in most cases, the bacteria was transferred to both
tile floors and especially carpeting. There are more bacteria on shoes than on toilet
seats, including E coli. This is
especially dangerous for children under the age of 2,
because they play on the
floor and frequently put their
hands in their mouths. Here’s
more:
Dear Annie: The host is
responsible for making
guests feel welcome and
comfortable. Many people
have health conditions that
make walking in stockings or
soft-soled slippers unsafe.
Such things as diabetes, neuropathy, planter fasciitis and
balance issues require that
Dear Annie: We also live in
a snowy part of America, so
dirt, mud, snow and road salt
get tracked in all the time.
Most everyone takes off their
shoes in others’ homes. (The
elderly and disabled are
exempt.) “Clean” could buy an
extra pair of comfortable slippers or loafers and keep them
at his sister-in-law’s house, or
better yet, buy some crazy
socks that will be a conversation starter and fun!
– Feel Better
Kathy & Marcy
shoes be worn at all times. If
the hosts care more about
their floors than their guests,
they should not entertain in
their homes.
– J.
Dear Annie: Who does
this person think he is to
decide that he can walk
around someone else’s house
with his shoes on? No one
has perfectly clean shoes
unless they have just taken
them out of the box from the
shoe store. Your word choice
of “detritus” was very polite.
Street shoes have everything
from dog poop to dead bugs
on them. Who on earth wants
that on their floors? Not me.
Dear Annie: People who
care more about their house
than their guests are cold,
materialistic, uncaring and a
few other things you wouldn’t
print. What happens when
someone spills red wine on
the white carpet? Will that
person need to be escorted
out? Where does it stop?
– E.
Dear Annie: The sister-inlaw could easily provide a box
of shoe covers for her guests.
That would be a win-win solution.
– Sara in Ohio
Dear Annie: This reminded
me of a Christmas party held
at my bosses’ home. I bought
a special outfit and the perfect
shoes, only to be asked at the
door to remove them. I was
wearing 3-inch heels and when
I took them off, my white wool
slacks dragged all over the
place. What made it worse was
that they owned two dogs and
a cat. It’s been 10 years and it
still bugs me.

Salome’s Stars
ARIES
(March
21
to
April 19) Impatience is still
somewhat of a problem. But
a sign of progress should
soothe the anxious Aries heart.
Meanwhile, invest some of
that waiting time in preparing
for the change ahead.
TAURUS (April 20 to May
20) Bovines tend to excel at
solving problems, not creating
them. But you risk doing
just that if you’re slow to
respond to a timely situation.
If necessary, seek advice from
someone you trust.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
The Gemini Twin might need
to do more than a routine
check of both a job-linked and
home-based situation. Dig
deeper for more data on both
fronts to avoid unwanted
surprises later.
CANCER (June 21 to July
22) Moon Children facing an
important workplace decision
are encouraged to use their
perceptiveness to see through
any attempt to win them over
with a supercharge of fawning
and flattery.
LEO (July 23 to August 22)
Good news catapults Leos and
Leonas into reconsidering a
deferred decision. But time
has moved on, and it’s a good
idea to recheck your plans
and make adjustments where
necessary.
VIRGO (August 23 to
September 22) The week favors
relationships, both personal
and professional. Take the time
to look for and immediately
repair any vulnerable areas
caused
by
unresolved
misunderstandings.
LIBRA
(September
23
to October 22) A friend’s
problems bring out your
protective instincts. Be careful
to keep a balance between
meeting the obligations of
friendship
without
being
overwhelmed by them.
SCORPIO (October 23 to
November 21) The temptation
to take an extreme position
on an issue is strong, but
moderation is favored both
in personal and professional
Last Week’s Answers
dealings. Move toward finding
areas of agreement.
SAGITTARIUS (November
22 to December 21) Getting
another boss or teacher? Try
to see the person behind the
image. It will help you adjust
more easily to the changes
that new authority figures
inevitably bring.
CAPRICORN (December 22
to January 19) Much as you
might dislike the idea, keep
an open mind about using
the assistance of a third party
to help resolve problems
that threaten to unravel an
important agreement.
AQUARIUS
(January
20 to February 18) Music
helps restore the Aquarian’s
spiritual energies this week.
Take someone you care for
to a concert of your musical
choice. Also, expect news
about a workplace matter.
PISCES (February 19 to
March 20) A challenge that
seems easy enough at first
could take an unexpected turn
that might test your resolve.
Decide if you feel you should
stay with it, or if it’s better to
move in another direction.
BORN THIS WEEK: You can
be strong when standing up
for justice, both for yourself
and for others.

wife of 40+ years, Charlotte Bumgarner who passed 2 months
earlier in Febuary. Bob was one of the strongest, most loving
men that has ever lived. At an early age he served his country
in the 82nd Airborne. He drilled for water in Saudi Arabia and
Morocco as well all over the US. He owned several businesses
throughout his life including The Boonies Restaurant and Bar
and a few trucking companies. He and his wife Charlotte were
staples in the Dyer, Nevada community for over 30 years.
All of “the valley” knew Bob was the guy to go to for help.
He loved to go to Mexico for extended vacations. When he
retired, he fell in love with panning for gold. We all have so
many memories and stories of our life with him. He will be
missed. We have comfort in knowing he and Charlotte are
together in Heaven.
Services for Bob and Charlotte will be graveside at Fishlake
Valley Cemetery April 30, 2016 at 12:00pm (noon). A potluck
will be held afterwards at the Fishlake Valley Community
Center to celebrate their lives.
1950 – 2016
Charlotte “Ivor” Bumgarner, age 66, from Dyer NV went
home to the Lord on January 13, 2016 after complications from
diabetes at Tahoe Regional Medical Center in Sparks, NV.
She was born on January 6, 1950 to Florence and Wilbur
Gutherie in Bishop, CA. She had three siblings; David, Donna
and Dale (Butch). She graduated from Bishop High School.
In the late 1970’s she married the love of her life, Robert N.
Bumgarner.
Charlotte worked for the phone company, Jack’s Waffle
House and BBQ Bills in Bishop. She was the owner/operator of
Boonies Bar & Grill in Dyer, NV and double team truck driving
with her husband Bob for years. Charlotte was blessed in having
four step-children. The Lord blessed her and Bob even more
with Bobby, the joy of her life. Her many pups and cat became
a close second. She wanted to adopt all unwanted children and
animals. Charlotte was loved and became friends with many
people. She called dimes “angel kisses” and wanted her best
friend, Vicki Serfoss and herself to save dimes and travel to
Romania to give orphans motherly hugs and kisses.
She was preceded in death by her father, Wilbur; mother,
Florence; brother, “Butch” and sister, Donna. Charlotte is survived
by her husband, Richard N. Bumgarner of Dyer, NV; brother,
David Gutherie of Tehachapi, CA; son, Robert W. Bumgarner
(Shelly) of Dyer, NV; step-daughter, Suzy (Mitch) of Portland, TX;
step-son, Frank (Sam) of Big Pine, CA; step-daughter Barbara
of Carson City, NV; step-daughter, Kathy of Augusta, ILL; eleven
grandchildren and ten great –grandchildren.
Cremation and burial will be at a later date. In lieu of flowers,
Charlotte would request that donations and attention be given to
all local animal shelters.
“Jesus said to her, I am the resurrection and the life. He who
believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives
and believes in me will never die.”

Klause
Oswald
Gierth
Doctor Klause Gierth, age
78, died suddenly on February
25, 2016 with pen in hand
while engaged in his favorite
endeavor, writing. He was philosopher in his soul, a fisherman where there
were streams, a carpenter given a saw, a physician to secure a living and
a U.S. Navy Veteran. He enjoyed the finer aspects of life such as poetry,
Shakespeare, Mark Twain, the Opera and human history. A man both complex
in his questions yet simple in his heart, Klause loved deeply and completely.
He often questioned life’s meaning and the existence of God, but for those who
knew him, he did more good than evil. The world has lost a unique spirit.
Klause was a mountain man who climbed the Sierra, the Whites and other
mountain ranges always stopping to fish or look into another abandoned
mine. He recorded hours of videos through his hikes, even while trudging up
steeply ascending peaks, scaling down deep ravines or while simply zooming
in on a scented lavender flower. We were equal participants of his footsteps
through our video eyes often exclaiming how dangerously foolish yet intensely
beautiful and inspiring it was.
A man of the earth, Klause admired beauty in all its forms, likely the reason
he often climbed the mountains or could not look a woman in the eye. A
well-studied pianist and music enthusiast, his heart thrilled to the sound of
Beethoven, Mozart or a lively German polka. He enjoyed his long haired
rescue cat who would only allow him to approach her. Klause was known to
drive 100 miles to feed wild horses.
At the age of 14 Klause emigrated from Germany to America after the war.
He then matriculated through the educational system with relative ease, as
he had a keen intellect and near photographic memory. He graduated from
Medical School at Loma Linda University and then served in the Navy for
two years for the country he called, “the best”, the United States of America.
He practiced Medicine at Long Beach Memorial Hospital while building his
forever home in his California mountains. After completion of his home, he
moved to his mountains in Bishop, CA and served the community for 35 years
as an Emergency Room doctor.
Klause had two children with Peggy, Michael and Heidi. Michael preceded
Klause in death, much to Klauses’ forever anguish. He was also preceded
in death by his father, Oswald Gierth; his mother, Gerda Gierth; his sister,
Hannalorie Lake and his beloved sister, Christa Gierth. He is survived by
his daughter, Heidi Moore; son-in-law, James Moore; brother-in-law, Dave
Reid; daughter-in-law, Tamie Gierth; grandchild, Richard Gierth and his
wife, Lauren Gierth; grandchild, Justin Gierth and his wife, Allison Gierth;
grandchild, Ashley Medina and her husband, Adolfo Medina and grandchild,
Jamie Moore. He is also survived by Great grandchildren, Alice Medina and
Hayden Gierth.
Klause called himself an “observer of people”. He was so much more than
an observer, he was an active participant mostly, right in the center of this
heart song of life. He lived life on his own terms, and questioned everything.
“Goodnight, sweet prince, and flights of angels sing thee to thy rest” –
Shakespeare.

EASTERN SIERRA HISTORY
Saturday, APRIL 16, 2016
Old Dinah, a steam tractor used briefly (and unsuccessfully) by Francis M. “Borax” Smith to transport
wagonloads of ore from the mines at Borate to the railroad at Daggett. Old Dinah is currently on display at the Furnace Creek Ranch.

A work train on the first high trestle of the Death Valley Railroad, August 1914. The construction of this
railroad, which was intended to connect the mining camp of New Ryan with the Tonopah & Tidewater
Railroad at Horton, began in the fall of 1913 with a crew of 325 men, 150 mules and Fresno scrapers.
Death Valley borax mines led to transportation firsts
By the Eastern California
Museum Virtual
Transportation Museum
Death Valley enjoys a
rich mining history, but not
many of the region’s mines
generated long-term rich
returns for investors or
miners. Gold and silver
drew the attention of most
miners, but produced, at
best, short-term bursts in
activity and, in some cases,
the establishment of mining camps or towns, from
Cerro Gordo to Panamint
City to Skidoo. These
towns’ fortunes rose, and
then fell, based on the mineral wealth generated by
nearby mines. Other mining
operations banked on less
glamorous minerals, such
as salt, but their fortunes,
too, were short-lived.
The one great exception
to Death Valley’s boom and
bust mining history is
borax. The mineral spurred
development of Death
Valley in the late 1800s,
and remained one of the
few minerals that could be
profitably mined and
shipped out of the hostile
environment of Death
Valley. Rail lines were built,
towns sprung up to house
miners and the desert started to look a lot more prosperous than it used to.
In addition to the economic benefits, borax mining and shipping created
one of the iconic images of
Death Valley, the famed
20-mule teams.
Long after the 20-mule
teams were replaced, the
image of a long string of
mules pulling a huge wagon
across the unforgiving land-
scape became probably one
of the most recognizable
images and symbols of
Death Valley. Pacific Coast
Borax used the 20-mule
team icon to market its
product, and continued to
hitch up and drive 20-mule
teams in Death Valley as a
promotional vehicle well
into the 1950s. That tradition continues today, when
Bobby Tanner of Bishop
drives a 20-mule team hitch
at Mule Days.
The lasting legacy of
borax mining can also be
seen today. Pacific Coast
Borax didn’t abandon its
Death Valley holdings when
richer, more accessible
borax mines came into production. Instead, the company enthusiastically, and
at great cost, built and
operated numerous touristrelated facilities in Death
Valley, most notably the
array of visitor amenities at
Furnace Creek. Eventually
the company allowed its
holdings to become the
Death Valley National
Monument, the precursor
to today’s Death Valley
National Park.
Discovery of ‘Cottonball’
borax leads to a mining
boom
Inyo County was the
leading source of borax in
the United States from
1882 until 1890 and from
1907 until 1927.
Between 1890 and 1907
and from 1928 on, San
Bernardino County was the
leading producer. Although
deposits were discovered in
Saline, Death and Searles
valleys in the 1870s, it was
the discovery of “cotton-
ball” borax on the east side
of Death Valley by Aaron
Winters in the early 1880s
that started the borax
boom in Inyo County.
In 1882, William T.
Coleman purchased the
Death Valley claim from
Winters for $20,000 and
established the Harmony
Borax Works. To make the
transport of borax economically viable, Coleman needed to establish a freighting
system. As a result, 10 specially built high-wheeled
wagons, each weighing four
tons, were hitched in pairs
with a water wagon carrying a 500-gallon tank
attached at the rear. Each
set of wagons was pulled
by a team consisting of 18
mules and two draft horses.
Sacks of borax were
transported to the railhead
at Mojave by five separate
teams that ran like clockwork. From 1883 until
1889, these famous
20-mule teams made the
20-day round trip between
Death Valley and Mojave,
traveling at a rate of 15 to
18 miles per day. Each
wagon team could haul up
to 28 tons of borax.
In the late 1880s, deposits of a new borate mineral
named colemanite were discovered in Furnace Creek
Wash on the eastern edge
of Death Valley and in the
Calico Mountains near
Barstow. Production shifted
from Death Valley to the
Calico Mountains, and the
new town of Borate was
established 11 miles from
the Daggett railhead. Borax
production doubled, but
this caused prices to plummet, and in 1888 Coleman’s
After the mines stopped producing, the Ryan Baby Gauge Railroad transported tourists on mine tours
as part of the transition of Death Valley from a mining region to a tourist attraction.
empire collapsed.
In 1890, Francis Marion
“Borax” Smith acquired all
of Coleman’s borax properties, and with these and his
own holdings formed the
Pacific Coast Borax
Company with the famous
“20 Mule Team Borax”
trademark. Borate deposits
in Death Valley were virtually abandoned in 1890,
and San Bernardino became
the leading producer of
borax until 1906 when the
deposits at Calico finally
played out.
Borax mining resumed in
Death Valley in 1903, as it
had become evident that
the deposits near Borate
would soon be exhausted.
The town of Ryan grew up
around the Lila C. Mine
where initial borax production started. A mill was
established at Death Valley
Junction on the Tonopah &
Tidewater Railroad line,
and a spur was built from
the mill to Ryan.
Constructed by F.M. Smith
in 1907 in hopes of cashing
in on the Rhyolite boom,
the Tonopah & Tidewater
was used to haul borax
instead. By 1915, the Lila C.
had produced more borate
ore than all of Death
Valley’s previous borax
operations combined, but
Smith ultimately went
bankrupt due to other
investments and lost control of the mines.
To reach the best deposits in the Funeral Range, the
reorganized Pacific Coast
Borax Consolidated built
the narrow gauge Death
Valley Railroad, which was
completed to Horton on the
Tonopah & Tidewater in
1914. “Old Ryan” was torn
down and moved to the
new location, and the Lila
C. was abandoned.
Extensive production took
place at the Widow and
other mines in the vicinity
of New Ryan over the next
dozen or so years.
Ore from these mines
was hauled by a 24-inch
(baby) gauge train to New
Ryan where it was loaded
onto the narrow gauge
Death Valley Railroad. From
Ryan, the ore was transported to Horton where it
was transferred to railcars
on the Tonopah &
Tidewater standard gauge
line. By 1927, production
from the mines in the
Funeral Range had reached
$30 million.
However, amazingly rich
deposits of pure borax were

discovered in the Mojave
Desert at Kramer (Boron)
on the transcontinental railroad that same year, and
borax was also being mined
from Searles Lake near
Trona. Unable to compete,
the mines in the Funeral
Range ceased operations in
1928.
That prompted Pacific
Coast Borax to look at is
Death Valley holdings as a
tourist attraction, not a
mining property. The allure
of Death Valley to visitors
became apparent fairly
soon. In a short time, the
Tonopah & Tidewater and
Death Valley railroads were
given new life transporting
tourists to Death Valley,
and instead of hauling ore
from the mines, the baby
gauge train was used to
ferry people on mine tours.
Fascination with the rugged landscape and extreme
conditions in Death Valley
continues today.

Sierra Sojourns
Enjoying great view
amongst the big boulders
(Hiked on
March 31, 2016)
The following hike is
located in an area where
Native Americans presided,
so if you venture here
please be respectful and
leave any and all artifacts in
place where they belong.
My brother was back in
town a couple of weeks ago
and, like me, he wanted to
go on a nice hike with much
elevation gain but not too
many miles.
I wanted to keep it local
so we would have plenty of
time to enjoy some nice
cold beverages, so I made a
couple of suggestions. The
first one was just north of
Bishop near Silver Canyon
in the White Mountains. The
next was a nice dirt road
drive and then a short,
steep hike to the top of
Casa Diablo Mountain and
finally a five- to six-mile
trek to see the gorgeous
Druid Stones off Barlow
Lane in Bishop.
He originally wanted to
park near the entrance to
Silver Canyon, close to Laws
Museum, and climb the
shale-covered slopes of
Silver Canyon Point and
Dan Point, but I convinced
him to visit the Druid
Stones Loop and check out
the gigantic boulders and
the best view of Bishop I’ve
seen so far.
He was persuade by my
description of the trail,
which I had done only once
before.
Craig Jackson
Columnist
We chose an exceptional
Thursday for our hike, as
the sky was totally clear
with a nice cool southerly
breeze, which kind of
cooled us off on this strenuous trail.
After polishing off a
nice, hearty breakfast, we
took the very short drive
south on Barlow Lane to
where it separates and
becomes Bir Road to the
right. A couple of miles
later there’s a dirt road on
the left that initially drops
down and then cul-de-sacs
in a few hundred feet on
the right.
The trailhead here is not
marked but is obvious as it
starts to climb steeply on
the left side of an unknown
canyon. This trail definitely
means business as it immediately begins quite steeply
and doesn’t have any type
of relatively flat sections
until reaching the top of the
first ridge, and a thousand
feet higher, in the first mile.
Welcome rest and a few
nice pine trees greeted us
as the view of Bishop grew
better and better.
The brief, easy walking
ended quite suddenly as we
passed the return portion
of the loop and began to
climb higher up, getting
closer to the massive rocks
and another brief flat spot.
Serious rock climbers venture here to test their skills
on the giant boulders.
My brother must have
had some Wheaties before
breakfast because he kept a
fast pace in the morning
warmth.
We moseyed quickly
around this magnificent
rock garden, taking pictures
and cooling off a bit before
the toughest part of the
loop hike.
One more ridgetop left
to conquer on this very discernible trail, with the presence of more trees becoming more apparent. Two
miles into the hike now we
reached welcome shade and
a fantastic cool breeze
while standing on the ridge.
For the next half mile the
path now pleasantly drops
down a bit to a saddle and
passes by the unmarked
junction with the loop portion of the hike.
We chose to bypass the
loop for now and continue
up the trail, which eventually climbs up to Coyote
Ridge, or so I’ve been told.
We both still had some
gas in the tank so I suggest-
Fantastic rock formations alongside the sandy trail.

ed we hike another mile or
so to a nice spot in a small
valley, surrounded by three
or four rocky outcrops.
Before we had some
lunch, we climbed the high
rock pile on the south side
of the valley and were
greeted with a nice
360-degree view of the
Owens Valley, White
Mountains and snow to the
west.
A couple of hours was
spent here, kicking back
and relaxing under an
umbrella-like pine tree and
white, puffy clouds coming
from the west. Refreshed
and ready, we eagerly anticipated the enjoyable downhill hiking we were about to
do. A half hour later we
were back at the saddle and
made the left turn to complete the loop portion of
the hike. Two hours from
the valley where we had
lunch, we arrived back at
the car, feeling the warmth
of the spring sun beating
on our skin.
My brother and I drove
directly to the Mountain
Rambler Brewery and
capped off a great hike with
some good conversation
and refreshing refreshments.

By the Creek
Desert experiences
By Sarah Bradfield
With the Sierras to the
west and the White Mountain
range on our east, Bishop is
enveloped in beauty, grandeur and a rain shadow.
Our mountain ranges
block the passage of many
weather systems which have
the potential of rain, leaving
Bishop in the dust of a high
desert. The Eastern Sierra is
a gorgeous but harsh environment.
God has led His people,
Israel, through many desert
and wilderness experiences
and consequently, Scripture
has much to say about His
purposes and what man’s
response should be in them.
Moses presents a song in
the presence of all Israel
(who were acutely aware of
desert living) prior to his
own death. He says, “God
found him in a desert land
and in the howling waste of
a wilderness; He encircled
him, He cared for him, He
guarded him as the pupil of
His eye.”
And later in the passage it
reads, “See now that I, I am
He, and there is no god
besides Me.” 1 Corinthians
10 explains that Israel was
laid low in the wilderness. I
believe that is to say God
used Israel’s physical afflictions (brought about by the
desert) to guide them into
knowledge of their total
dependence upon Him.
The apostle Paul also
shares with us some reasoning why God allowed Israel
to be laid low – so they
would not crave evil things –
specifically idolatry, immorality, distrust of God and
grumbling.
When man finds himself
afflicted, needy and parched,
God will answer and not forsake him. This is for the
purpose that the man will
see and recognize who the
Lord is and what He has
done.
The desert teaches us
God is provider. This means
that God will provide how
and when He deems appropriate, for His purpose. Until
we have gained insight of
our complete dependence
upon Him, we have not finished learning what the desert has to teach us.
The LORD speaks through
Jeremiah regarding the
cursed and blessed man by
likening them to two types
of trees. He says, “Cursed is
the man who trusts in mankind and makes flesh his
strength … for he will be like
a bush in the desert.”
And then, “Blessed is the
man who trusts in the LORD
and whose trust is the
LORD. For he will be like a
tree planted by the water,
that extends its roots by a
stream and will not fear
when the heat comes …
(and) will not be anxious in a
year of drought nor cease to
yield fruit.”
In the original language
there is a play on words
between “cursed” (arur) and
“bush” (arar). The Arar bush
(or tree) in this passage is a
cruel farce. It is an extremely green and lush looking
desert tree that produces
fruit. Yet if a desert traveler
comes across an Arar and
picks its fruit, he will find it
to be lacking. It is hollow,
filled with webs and dust.
The blessed man (who
some may recognize also
from Psalm 1) is one whose
trust isn’t only in the LORD
but is the LORD. This man is
likened to a tree that will
experience heat and drought
but yet is planted by water.
Similarly, acacia trees grow
in wadis, desert valleys that
are dry except in rainy seasons. They are productive,
dense and strong trees, providing shade, firewood, salve
and more. When the LORD
provides water for them,
they make the most of it
within their desert environments.
I am sure you have
walked more than one desert experience in your life.
In some ways, I would
suggest that life is a desert.
If that journey is travelled in
your own ephemeral and
empty strength it is like the
fruit of the Arar – seemingly
good but a mockery of what
fruit from a truly productive
tree looks like.
The LORD wants you to
recognize your need for Him
as provider because that is
what He is. Every man and
woman is born spiritually
dead, separated from God
by his very nature.
Any apparently good fruit
we produce out of this position is a mockery, filled with
webs and dust. God has provided the solution, His Son.
Trust in the LORD Jesus
Christ today; your life now
and eternally depends on it.
For those who have taken
this first step, the journey
has not ended. There will be
times in the desert when the
heat and thirst will feel overwhelming. Yet, “no temptation has overtaken you but
such as is common to man;
and God is faithful, who will
not allow you to be tempted
beyond what you are able,
but with the temptation will
provide the way of escape
also, so that you will be able
to endure it (1 Corinthians
10:13).” In the desert, God is
provider.

each one of us was not conceived in sin, raised in sin or
dies in sin. We each were born to life
to be all that we can be,
happy, prosperous and
healthy. No demons, saints or
angels can deter or alter the
direction you have laid
before you with your
thought. Heretofore our destiny
was determined by our parents, teachers and others,
however, when we become
aware that our use of Mind
determines what takes place
within and without our environment the responsibility
becomes ours.
There is only One mind
and that Mind is God’s Mind,
and we are all using it. If
there be a sin it is to fail to
use the Mind of God for
good and productive ideas,
thoughts and behaviors. In archery, a sin means
you have missed your mark. Without being overly judgmental I’m sure we can all
see quite a few people that
have missed the mark and
some seem to be pretty

good at it. Sinning ceases to block
the good and very good
when the cause (ignorance)
is removed. The safety conscious
manufacturers provide
labels detailing what you
should or not do to ensure
your safety. Ladders, appliances and
construction equipment
have labels for correct
usage. For instance, a hair dryer
may have a message warning you to not take the
product into the shower. We weren’t provided with
labels to prevent disaster
but we were supplied with
Infinite Intelligence, which
should give us the sense to
do the right thing. I say “should” because
many people have not taken
the time to listen to the
indwelling God.
Negativity and sin have a
lot in common; both are a
detriment to our well-being. We must begin to realize the
power we have over our life
and experience of living. In Religious Science we
don’t claim you can have
everything you want, but we
do say you can develop the
consciousness for everything you want and fulfill
your desires. Thoughts lead to the
manifestation of forms. Forms are forever coming
into being and others are
fading out of existence.
This is the continuity of
life taking place on a daily
basis. What you mentally
and emotionally release
from your world dies out,
while what you mentally and
emotionally embody is born
into your world. New ideas and new
thoughts and new attitudes
are forever appearing and if
received will bring about
heaven on earth, providing
old, outdated negatives do
not lead you on a detour
from your desire.
Take the time to seek out
and destroy these denizens
of the deep by declaring
their death in your thinking
and be free of them. Destroy them with deliberate intent! Your heart’s
desires need your full attention and will not be hampered when you cast out the
anchors that have kept you
mired in the past limitations. Be the wonder you are
today!
God is Love and Loving
You Right Now!

Applying standards to others
Much of the time when
we talk about what it is to
be a follower of Christ we
proclaim all these wonderful ideas and principles we
say we believe, as we
should.
However, there can be
two problems with that.
The first one is not complicated. When we outright
fail to live by what we say
we believe we blow it. A
saying attributed to the old
showman, P.T. Barnum,
covers this one, “You can
fool all of the people some
of the time, some of the
people all of the time but
you cannot fool all of the
people all of the time.”
Sooner or later someone
will pick up on a phony
and the word will get out.
The second problem that
gets us into trouble: perceived or actual misapplication of the principles we
say we believe.
Here’s an example of
both. Someone posted a
picture of a well-known and
influential person and her
daughter on Facebook. The
caption read, “How beautiful!” Many similar expressions were posted in the
comments. Then one per-
Philip Severi
Columnist
son wrote, “The smile does
not reach the eyes.” The
response to that one comment was to call the person
who wrote it a hater.
Simple exchange, right?
On the surface. Facebook
being what it is, I am sure
the two people did not
know each other. The name
caller obviously employed
no discernment, making a
snap judgment about the
attitude and character of
the so-called hater. Epic
fail. Christian principles got
dumped. Why?
Condemnation without real
facts ignores everything
Jesus taught us.
What about the no-smilein-the-eye guy? Hard to say
at first. He gave us a clue in
a later response. He said he
looks on the inside as well
as on the outside before
deciding whether someone
was beautiful or not.
Discernment, an attempt to
understand, seems to be
here.
Here’s my take. When we
try to form an opinion
about someone we have
four factors available to us:
physical appearance,
words, actions and
thoughts. Physical appearance can be completely
divorced from the other
three, or it can be a small,
partial, reflection of them.
Reliance solely on looks is
very shallow. Words and
actions can be observed.
We especially look for them
to be in harmony with each
other if we are trying to
discern a person’s true
nature. Thoughts are harder. Words and actions are
most often strong indications of them, but the truth
is we can never really know
with absolute certainty
what another person is
thinking.
After all, we are not God,
Who sees a person in totality. That is why the various
human authors of the Bible
were led by the Holy Spirit
to give us guidelines on
how to learn about people
in both the Old and New
Testaments. In every case,
what is stated or implied is
that it takes time to get to
know who people really
are. The best example of
this is found in Matthew
7:16-20 when Christ likened people to trees. Verse
20 reads, “Wherefore by
their fruits ye shall know
them.” Fruit takes time to
grow and mature. So when
we wish to speak about
others, we had better be
doing so from the vantage
point of observation and
familiarity.
But here’s the other
thing. Our own fruit cannot
be rotten, our self-discernment shallow. The standards we apply to others
we must also apply to ourselves as well.
(Philip Severi, a former
Bishop resident, previously
wrote a weekly column for
The Inyo Register. He contributes to this page from
his home in Twain Harte.)
From the Pulpit
Lazarus,
come forth
Man’s word may be truly
powerful in a human sense.
With one short sentence,
government leaders can
send thousands of men and
women to war.
Yet, no human can raise
the dead.
Think of the most powerful person ever to live.
Could that person speak
to a decomposing body or
one of ashes and speak life
back into it?
Too many of us, myself
included, live life outside
the broad spectrum of God’s
resurrection power, not
believing this power even to
be possible.
This power is not a power
inside man no matter how
much he prays, meditates,
worships, or tries his best.
This is a power that is all
God’s.
In John 11:43-44 Jesus
raised a real dead man. Had
he not specified “Lazarus”
by name all the dead would
have come alive in body and
spirit.
We will all be raised
again by Almighty God (John
5) either to a resurrection of
eternal life or one of eternal
condemnation.
Because of our sin each
of us deserves to receive
that latter judgment of condemnation.
Jesus came into the world
to reverse the curse of condemnation.
The fleshly body of Jesus
did all that was necessary to
reverse that condemnation.
In His own body as a true
human being He lived a life
of holiness.
His death was considered
the most unholy ever to
have taken place.
A truly innocent man suffered the sentence of the
worst criminal – separation
Rev. Kent Puls
Columnist
from God.
All the pain He endured
was for your eternal gain.
This death atoned for
your sin and the resurrection of condemnation that
you deserve was turned into
a resurrection of life in
heaven forever.
This gift is for you. Every
day you are privileged to
grow in faith by pondering
the Word of your Lord: “I am
the resurrection and the life.
He that believes in me,
though He dies yet He shall
live.”
In church this week we
will hear the resurrection
word.
This is an opportunity to
receive anew the eternal
promises of God our Savior.
See you Sunday.

A-20 SATURDAY, APRIL 16, 2016 What is your idea of bliss?
Camping in the Eastern Sierra
with my “Priority Male” husband,
Alan Broch. Our two old dogs,
Luckie and Jack, also consider it
bliss … or at least fun.
What is your idea of misery?
Personally, being surrounded by
those who thrive on negativity
and hatred. Expanded to a global
scale, poverty, prejudice, war and
genocide.
With whom do you identify from
history?
St. Peter and Mary Magdalene
have always resonated with me.
They are very human in their
struggles, yet through faith and
grace, their are changed and
inspire others.
In-Depth &
Personal with
Alisa Lynch
Alisa Lynch grew up in California’s Gold Country with her mom, Mary, and
older brother, Martin. She graduated from California State University Stanislaus,
with a BA in drama/English and teaching credentials in Secondary English and
Social Studies and Primary K-8. She began working for the National Park
Service as a seasonal ranger in 1989 and decided to make it a career. Over the
past 26 years, she has worked as a park ranger in Yosemite, Big Bend National
Park in West Texas and Mount Rainier National Park, Wash. Her career has
taken her to Independence Hall in Philadelphia – the birthplace of the U.S.
Constitution – to Manzanar National Historic Site – where that Constitution’s
guarantees were denied to thousands of U.S. citizens.
Lynch has been the chief of interpretation at Manzanar since Sept. 9, 2001.
Working with a talented and dedicated team at Manzanar, she oversees visitor
services, education, outreach, publications, exhibit design, social media and
oral history. She has assisted with planning efforts at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii,
Bainbridge Island in Washington, and Tule Lake and Alcatraz in California. She
is also working with other civil rights sites through the National Park Service’s
“Arc to Equality” Initiative.
Lynch married her “Priority Male” Alan Broch in September 2013. Broch,
who grew up in Big Pine, works for the US Postal Service in Independence. They
live happily in Independence with their two dogs, two cats, and many friends.
Who do you admire?
First and foremost, my mom,
Marilyn Fischer Lynch. In my
decade ana a half at Manzanar,
I’ve come to know many, many
people who inspire me and
bless my life. And, of course, I
admire my husband, Alan, whose
heart is filled with kindness and
compassion.
What among your traits do you
dislike the most?
Frustration and mental and
physical clutter.
What trait do you most dislike
in others?
Hatred.
What scares you?
In my own life, losing the people I
love. In the bigger picture, seeing
hatred-fueled extremism of all
types.
What is your extravagance?
Thrift stores! I love going to the
IMAH thrift store in Bishop. Alan
might say too many books, shoes
and cars.
What is a favorite trip you have
taken?
Our honeymoon trip to Victoria and
Sooke, British Columbia, in 2013.
My trip to Italy with friends in 2005
was also amazing. Ideal: go to Italy
with Alan and have the best of both
trips!
Where would you like to live?
Bainbridge Island, WA in the
summer and Independece for the rest
of the year. I really like Mammoth
but could never afford it.
Do you ever lie?
I try very hard not to. Occassionally,
I avoid being totally candid because
I don’t want to hurt someone’s
feelings.
Who is the greatest love of your
life?
Anytime you fall in love, you think
it’s the greatest! I suspect I’m not
alone in having some twists and
turns in life before unexpectedly
finding the greatest: my husband,
Alan. He works for the USPS so I
call him my “Priority Male.” We
even had a love stamps theme at our
wedding.
When in your life were you the
happiest?
There are many kinds of happiness.
The six years I spent living and
working in Big Bend National
Park in West Texas were a lot of
fun. But, my 15 years in living
in Independence and working at
Manzanar also are largely happy
and deeply rewarding. Like the
slogan says, it’s the hardest job
you’ll ever love.
What hidden talent do you have?
I don’t know. It must still be hidden.
What natural talent do you wish
you had?
Singing.
What do you consider your
greatest achievement?
Being part of the team that has made
Manzanar a place where passion for
history and compassion for others
make a difference.
In your next life, you want to be …
With God, surrounded by peace and
light and loved ones.
What is your favorite way of
relaxing?
Camping.
What is your present state of mind?
Hopeful.
What quality do you most admire in
a person?
Empathy.
What fault can you most easily
forgive or overlook?
Misguided efforts to do the “right”
thing.
Who is your favorite fictional or nonfictional hero?
There are many, but Mother Teresa is
pretty amazing.
How would you like to die?
Peacefully, surrouneded by those I love,
going into the arms of those I love…
to God.
What is your motto?
“Live and let live”

Our Bad Eating Habits

S
Don’t Stress Out
tress may contribute to high blood pressure, heart disease and emotional
distress, according to the Red Cross.
Are you
stressed out?
When you’re really
stressed out, you’re probably already aware of it
– but stress also can impact you in other ways,
sometimes when you
don’t even realize it.
According
to
the
American Heart Association, stress can manifest in physical ways
including
headache;
backache; neck ache;
stomach ache; tight
muscles; clenched jaw;
low energy level and fitful sleep.
Stress also can manifest emotionally, with issues including anxiety;
anger; depression; helplessness; feeling out of
control; tension; being
easily irritated and impatience.
Keep Stress
Levels Down
Here are some tips to
keep your stress levels
down: If possible, stop
what you are doing and
take a short walk; get a
drink of water or juice;
take a few slow deep
breaths; listen to some
soothing
music;
do
something you enjoy;
watch a funny movie;
exercise; learn to accept
what you can’t change;
talk to a friend or confidant; get plenty of sleep;
set realistic expectations; learn to say no;
organize and prioritize.
Try not to sweat
the small stuff
The American Heart
Association notes one of
the best ways to avoid
stress is to remember to
laugh. Laughter makes
us feel good. Don’t be
afraid to laugh out loud
at a joke, a funny movie
or a comic strip, even
when you’re alone.
Pacing yourself also is
important, as we need to
remember to slow down.
Try to “pace” instead of
“race.” Plan ahead and
allow enough time to
get the most important
things done without
having to rush.
Being organized is another way to avoid stress
and can help avoid situations that might stress
you out. Use “to do”
lists to help you focus
on your most important tasks. Approach
big tasks one step at a
time. For example, start
by organizing just one
part of your life — your
car, desk, kitchen, closet,
cupboard or drawer.
Keep your
perspective
A hobby can be a
great stress reliever, and
there are few hobbies
better than volunteering
in your community and
giving back.
Find out about the
nonprofits in your community and how you
might be able to help
by donating your time.
Helping those in need
is a great stress reliever
and can help give you
more perspective on
your own problems.

The
Effects
of
Obesity
O
besity is a growing health
threat in our country,
though there are some
steps you can take to avoid it.
The National Health, Lung and Blood Institute recommends following a healthy eating plan and making healthy food choices while
also keeping tabs on how many calories you consume. Another major factor: portion size. Watch the portion sizes in fast food and other
restaurant meals. The portions served often are enough for two or
three people. Children’s portion sizes should be smaller than those for
adults.
Another recurring theme: Be active. Make personal and family time
active. Find activities that everyone will enjoy. For example, go for
a brisk walk, bike or rollerblade, or train together for a walk or run.
Reduce screen time. Limit the use of TVs, computers, DVDs and video
games because they limit time for physical activity. Health experts
recommend two hours or less a day of screen time that’s not work- or
homework-related.
By the numbers
Data from 2009-2010 provided by The President’s Council on Fitness, Sports & Nutrition indicates that over 78 million U.S. adults
and about 12.5 million (16.9 percent) children and adolescents are
obese. Recent reports project that by 2030, half of all adults (115 million adults) in the United States will be obese. Overweight adolescents
have a 70 percent chance of becoming overweight or obese adults.
For children with disabilities, obesity rates are approximately 38
percent higher than for children without disabilities. It gets worse for
the adult population. Obesity rates for adults with disabilities are approximately 57 percent higher than for adults without disabilities.
Statistics show obesity has skyrocketed since the 1970s, with the
number of states with obese adults and children typically doubling or
tripling over the past 40 years.
The next generation
Nearly 45 percent of children living in poverty are overweight or
obese compared with 22 percent of children living in households with
incomes four times the poverty level. Almost 40 percent of black and
Latino youth ages 2 to 19 are overweight or obese compared with
only 29 percent of white youth. Obesity among children in the United
States has remained flat — at around 17 percent — in 2003-2004 and
2011-2012.
Between 2003 and 2012, obesity among children between 2 and 5
years of age has declined from 14 percent to 8 percent — a 43 percent
decrease in just under a decade.
Obesity rates in children 6 to 11 years old have decreased from 18.8
percent in 2003-2004 to 17.7 percent in 2011-2012; obesity rates for
children 12 to 19 years old have increased from 17.4 percent to 20.5
percent in the same time period.

How To Eat
Healthy
E
xercise and remaining active play a
key role in your health – but so does
what you actually put into your body.
Here are some tips from the President’s Council on Fitness, Sports and Nutrition that serve as a great place to
start.
Make half your plate fruits
and vegetables
The council recommends choosing red, orange and
dark-green vegetables such as tomatoes, sweet potatoes and broccoli, along with other vegetables for your
meals. Add fruit to meals as part of main or side dishes
or as dessert. The more colorful you make your plate, the
more likely you are to get the vitamins, minerals and
fiber your body needs to be healthy.
Make half the grains you eat whole grains
So how can you avoid high blood pressure? Take steAn easy way to eat more whole grains is to switch from
a refined-grain food to a whole-grain food. For example,
eat whole-wheat bread instead of white bread. Read the
ingredients list and choose products that list whole-grain
ingredients first. Look for things like “whole wheat,”
“brown rice,” “bulgur,” “buckwheat,” “oatmeal,” “rolled
oats,” quinoa” or “wild rice.”
Choose a variety of lean protein foods
The council notes meat, poultry, seafood, dry beans or
peas, eggs, nuts and seeds are considered part of the protein foods group. Select leaner cuts of ground beef (where
the label says 90 percent lean or higher), turkey breast
or chicken breast.
Keep up with your sodium
Use the Nutrition Facts label to choose lower sodium
versions of foods such as soup, bread and frozen meals.
Select canned foods labeled “low sodium,” “reduced sodium” or “no salt added.”
Trade that soda
for a
bottle of water
The council notes you can easily cut calories by drinking water or unsweetened beverages. Soda, energy drinks
and sports drinks are a major source of added sugar and
calories in American diets. Try adding a slice of lemon,
lime or watermelon or a splash of 100 percent juice to
your glass of water if you want some flavor.
Cut back
the sweets
The council recommends eating fewer foods that
contain solid fats. The major sources for Americans are
cakes, cookies and other desserts (often made with butter, margarine, or shortening); pizza; processed and fatty meats (e.g., sausages, hot dogs, bacon, ribs); and ice
cream.

Eye On Your Cholesterol
A
s the American Heart Association notes, high cholesterol is one of the major
controllable risk factors for coronary heart disease, heart attack and stroke.
The basics
Cholesterol is a waxy
substance that comes
from two sources: your
body and food, per the
AHA. Your body, and especially your liver, makes all
the cholesterol you need
and circulates it through
the blood. Cholesterol is
also found in foods from
animal sources, such as
meat, poultry and full-fat
dairy products. Your liver
produces more cholesterol
when you eat a diet high
in saturated and trans
fats.
Excess cholesterol can
form plaque between layers of artery walls, making
it harder for your heart to
circulate blood. Plaque

risk for heart attack and
stroke. Use the information provided here to start
a conversation with your
doctor about how cholesterol affects your heart attack and stroke risk and
what you can do to lower
your risk.
can break open and cause
blood clots. If a clot blocks
an artery that feeds the
brain, it causes a stroke.
If it blocks an artery that
feeds the heart, it causes a
heart attack.
The two types
There are two types of
cholesterol: “good” and
“bad.” Too much of one
type — or not enough of
another — can put you
at risk for coronary heart
disease, heart attack or
stroke. It’s important to
know the levels of cholesterol in your blood so that
you and your doctor can
determine the best strategy to lower your risk.
Making healthy eat-
ing choices and increasing exercise are important
first steps in improving
your cholesterol. For some
people, cholesterol-lowering medication also may
Connection to
heart disease
As your blood cholesterol rises, so does your risk
of coronary heart disease.
If you have other risk factors, such as smoking,
high blood pressure or diabetes, this risk increases
even further. The greater
the level of each risk factor, the more that factor
affects your overall risk.
Your cholesterol level can
be affected by your age,
gender, family health history and diet.
When too much LDL
(bad) cholesterol circulates
in the blood, it can slowly
build up in the inner walls
of the arteries that feed the
heart and brain, according
to the AHA. Together with
other substances, cholesterol can form a thick,
hard deposit called plaque
that can narrow the arteries and make them less
flexible. This condition is
known as atherosclerosis.
If a clot forms and blocks
a narrowed artery, a heart
attack or stroke can result.
