April Eagan, human services supervisor for Inyo County Health and Human Services, along with representatives from Bishop Youth Coalition, Bishop Tribal Youth Council, and Toiyabe Indian Health Project Family Services and Preventive Medicine will be presenting information on e-cigarettes and vaping from the youth perspective, according to Jim Tatum, city of Bishop administrator. Concern over e-cigarettes and vaping have come into focus recently as a store dedicated to the sales of e-cigarettes and vaping supplies prepares to open Thursday on N. Main Street. The city council has already heard complaints about the store, Grand Vapors, following the issuance of a permit to Chastity and William Logan for the business. During a public comment session during the city council meeting Sept. 14, Karen Kong, of Inyo County Superintendent of Schools Prevention Services, read a letter to the council written by Dr. Terry McAteer, Inyo County superintendent of schools, who asked the council to reconsider issuance of the business permit, “or at the very least, add restrictions to reduce the ability for children under 18 to enter the store.” In his letter, McAteer went on to point out that, “In the last two years, one of our See vape E Page 5 INDEX Calendar.......... 10 Classifieds........ 11 Faces................... 7 History.............. 16 Mtn.

Photo by Mike Chacanaca Banding together for more bandwidth Companies in Lone Pine find digital opportunity By Jon Klusmire Register Correspondent There is strength in numbers. And probably lower costs, too. That’s the approach being taken by the Lone Pine business community when it comes to taking advantage of the huge capacity of Digital 395’s fiber optic Internet/ data line running through town. While focused at the moment on getting business- es, especially hotels and motels, connected to the Digital 395, the Lone Pine Chamber of Commerce also supports Inyo County’s effort to use grant funding to extend the fiber network to residential areas in each town in the county. However, the county’s effort, called the Obsidian Project, will take several years to build out, so local businesses are moving on their own to share the costs of getting hooked into the massive broadband capacity offered by Digital 395. Internet access is the “number one amenity for our guests,” said Jeanne Willey of the Dow Villa Hotel during a morning meeting in Lone Pine hosted by the chamber to discuss improving Internet access. Right now the hotel’s Internet service can fall short when everyone in the hotel is online. “We can end up losing business” if visitors cannot quickly access the Internet, she noted. Better internet service also is seen as key to the area’s future and ability to diversify its economy. Securing fast, high-capacity Internet service is “lowhanging fruit” when it comes to economic development, said Lone Pine Chamber Board member David Blacker. “We can’t afford to wait” if the town wants to retain its current businesses and also attract new businesses. Those new businesses could include everything from professionals working at home over the Internet to larger enterprises such as call centers or data centers full of employees working remotely, he noted. Promoting and attracting such Internet-based businesses would be one way to diversify the local economy and create job opportunities and spur growth, Blacker said. “Inyo Networks is trying to seek out businesses to connect to Digital 395 … we want to get out in the community,” the group was told by Cliff Beddingfield, outreach and new business development coordinator for Inyo Networks.

The Inyo National Forest, Eastern Sierra Four Wheel Drive Club, Friends of the Inyo, and the Sierra Club have selected a project to honor the late James Wilson, who was an active steward of the Eastern Sierra and was passionately involved with collaboration efforts to help diverse users find consensus on land management issues. The Horton Lakes Road and Trailhead Project starts at 8 a.m. Oct. 3, and is expect- ed to last until around 1 p.m. Those who wish to may stay a little longer to get more work completed on the Horton Lakes Trail. Participants are to meet at the Highway 168/ Buttermilk Road junction and be prepared to carpool. Those who have a four-wheel drive vehicle and are willing to have extra passengers could help prevent congestion on the narrow 4x4 road. Volunteers will improve sections of the Horton Lakes Road (removing rocks, obstacles, and ruts, improving drainage, and adding directional signs), and perform basic trail maintenance (brushing, rock removal, improve drainage) along the Horton Lakes Trail. Thos who plan on attending, should RSVP so that organizers can better plan the day’s activities. For more information or to RSVP, contact [email protected] or call (760) 8736500. The Bishop Paiute Tribe, in partnership with GRID Alternatives Inland Empire, are set to install solar photovoltaic systems on four homes on the Bishop Paiute Reservation beginning Tuesday and ending Friday, according to Brian Adkins, tribal environmental director. These projects are the first of a total of 22 tribal homes that will “go solar” thanks to recent funding from an Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy grant from the U.S. Department of Energy, adding to the 54 reservation homes that have received solar through the partnership since 2013. Besides bringing muchneeded electric bill savings to qualified low-income residents, the program offers hands-on solar training to tribal residents, helping them gain valuable experience needed to open career opportunities in the fast-growing solar industry, Adkins said. Representatives from the Bishop Paiute Tribal Council, GRID Alternatives, and event sponsors will gather at 2 p.m. Tuesday for a ceremony to mark the occasion and flip the switch on a solar electric system that will save resident Rosalie Fimbres 50-75 percent on her electric bills each month, according to a GRID press release. “I am a single mother of two,” Fimbres said. “Some months are tough so any kind of help with bills is a plus.” The solar installations are part of the tribe’s long-term vision of energy self-sufficiency on the reservation, and dovetail with its workforce development efforts. “Our goal is to provide needed savings for families that are struggling to make ends meet and job training opportunities to compete in the rapidly growing solar field,” said Gerald Howard, tribal council chairman. “The Tribe’s partnership with GRID has made measurable progress towards environmental See solar E Page 5 The Inyo Register A-2 SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 2015 obituary notices Christine Bodine 1919-2015 Chris passed away Aug. 18, 2015, at the Bishop Care Center. She was 96. Born in Lindsay, Okla., to Charles Cunningham. Chris’ father died when she was young and her much older brother left, leaving her and her mother, Mary Rogers, known to the family as Ms. Crum, to live off the land in rural Oklahoma. The Great Dust Bowl chased off Chris and Ms. Crum to California. She was “Rosie the Riveter” during World War II, assembling bulletproof gas tanks for fighter planes. She met John Bodine in Southern California and married in 1942. She used to dance to The Benny Goodman Band and dig up beaches during the grunion runs. The two moved to the suburbs, a house and a car. Her sons John Charles came in 1944 and Terry followed in 1950. It was as a mother that Chris found her true calling. She was the best cook even after losing her sense of smell when she was in her 50s. The first thing she would say when you saw her was usually, “Did you have something to eat, honey?” She worked as a volunteer most of her life at local hospitals and headed up the Candy Stripers organization. She started her first paying job at the age of 60 working at Northern Inyo Hospital in the collections department. She had an outgoing spirit, loved animals and a very giving nature. There were plenty of camping trips and endless supplies of biscuits and gravy or short spaghetti. Bodines like to eat. Chris had a grace and generosity that was genuine and never lost to age. She could make friends in an instant and had thousands of them, some from second grade that still kept in touch. She was the sweetest person you’d ever meet. This place has lost a light, and it’s a little dark, but she was bright enough to keep shining long after she’s gone. Christine was preceded in death by her husband, John A. Bodine, and son, John C. Bodine. She is survived by daughter Terry Pledger of Newhall, Calif.; grandsons Mike Bodine of Bishop and Charlie Bodine of Agua Dulce, Calif. Great–grandchildren Diana Bodine of Bishop, J.C. Bodine of Agua Dulce, Rita Heller of Michigan and Claudie Montgomery of Oregon. Graveside services will be held Sept. 29 at 10:30 a.m. at the West Line Street Cemetery, 929 W. Line St., Bishop. Please join us for a celebration of life at Bishop First United Methodist Church right after the services, 205 N. Fowler St. Bishop. Neil Davis Vedder III 1950-2015 Neil Davis Vedder, III passed away on Sept. 18, 2015, after a courageous battle with brain cancer and is survived by Norma Vedder, his loving wife of 38 years.

People palter when they have something to hide or just don’t want to discuss. Paltering isn’t outright lying, but it’s close.

Fax (760) 873-3591 Public officials need to hold to their oaths By Kammi Foote When I was elected to the office of Inyo County ClerkRecorder, my first official act was to take an oath of office. Not only have I taken the oath, but one of my responsibilities as a county clerk is to administer oaths of office to other public employees and elected officials. All public servants, from the president of the United States to the county clerk, take the oath in one form or another before assuming office. In California, the oath includes the affirmation that we will support and defend the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State of California, against all enemies, foreign and domestic. In most cases what we are asserting is that we will administer the laws as decided by the body politic and not undermine our sys- tem of governance. Lately we have seen a number of examples of officials unilaterally making decisions that are contrary to the rule of law, based on their personal beliefs and aspirations. People must always seek to live by their values, but every public official makes a promise, before they ever take office, not to be a sovereign. So when presidents engage in military action without first getting the requisite approval from Congress, city council members vote to thwart federal immigration laws, county clerks refuse to recognize judicial authority, or elected officials here in California run end games around the legislative process, are we upholding our promise to the people? The act of declaring our allegiance to our system of government has been carried forward from the first colo- Top of the Morning Guest Columnist nial compact to modern day. In the beginning, the new immigrants swore their loyalty to King James, but today, we swear to support the Constitution, which replaced the king as our supreme law of the land. One thing has been constant since the establishment of the United States – we do not always agree on how we should be governed. In fact, our country was founded on the principals of debate and compromise, which is dependent upon opposing viewpoints. When we take the oath, we are not swearing that we agree with every regulation that exists at the time we take it, nor are we promising that we will approve of every governing decision that may come to pass in the future. Instead we are swearing allegiance to the rule of law and the civil society that governs us. As society changes over time, legislation will be amended, repealed, passed and tested against our constitutions. Our multi-layered system of government is designed to entrust individuals at every level to preserve this system for society as a whole. Nothing would suggest that upon taking the oath, you must give up your personal constitutional First Amendment rights. An indi- vidual is free to believe however they choose – a right ardently defended and upheld by multiple institutions. However, when it comes to public servitude, there has always been a higher standard to which our representatives must strive. The standard is that not only do we expect the average citizen to obey the law, but also the lawmakers. Oaths have withstood the test of time dating back to ancient Rome, and from the day George Washington placed his hand on the Bible and recited the oath, this promise to stand vigilant by doing our duty, even in the face of our personal beliefs, has been an important symbol of this country’s endurance and longevity. And when we consider the ideals and ambitions with which this nation was born and the sacrifices it has endured, we should have confidence that this is a political organization that is worthy of our support and defense. Elected and public officials have been entrusted with a legacy of our nation’s commitment to the Constitution and the liberty and freedom it gives all citizens. Our Republic is one of the longest standing in world history because of our dedication and commitment to the constitutional form of governance. We should take this role not lightly but with strength of purpose, love for our nation, and deep respect for the rule of law that gives it authority.” (Kammi Foote is the current Inyo County clerkrecorder-registrar of voters. Prior to her career in public service, Foote worked in the real estate industry as a title and escrow professional.) Significant Details Wrapping up summer with shades, taxes and cats Thank goodness that horrible summer season is behind us. Fall fell with a thud this week, carrying with it the hope that the brain-boiling summer heat is receding to merely “oven-like,” and the pesky bug plague is over. Besides the bugs and the heat taking a break, the summer rush also is receding, which means there is time to tidy up some summer leftovers and scraps that were duly noted in my notebook, but not duly reported or pondered. I can’t quit raving about my new sunglasses. They are plastic. They are orange. The lenses are as big as small, square saucers. And where, inquiring minds want to know, did I get such hip and happening shades? A high-end fashion-forward boutique or web page? A high-end outdoor store? Neither. My groovy sunglasses came courtesy of Jon Klusmire the Bureau of Land Management. Yes, you heard opinion that right. The BLM boys and girls who usually wear bland beige took a trip to the cutting edge and were handing out free, hip and happening purple and orange sunglasses this summer, that are definitely “on trend,” as the fashionistas like to say. Obviously, all the cool kids grabbed a pair. And how do I know orange sunglasses are cool? Simple. Everyone my age said they were horrid and annoying and silly and garish and over the top. My daughter loved them. Any more questions? I thought not. Not sure why I wrote down these historical tidbits, but here they are. San Francisco imposed taxes in 1906 after the big earthquake. Next up was the Panic of 1907. Locally, there is this double whammy: Federal income taxes were imposed in 1913, the same year the LA Aqueduct started siphoning water out of the Owens Valley. Speaking of our sister city to the south, there was one perplexing, confounding, epic and transformational issue in front of the LA City Council for a decision this summer. The effort produced experts on both sides, passionate citizens, council members grappling with their conscience as they weighed the profound impacts of their votes on not only the city, but the nation and the world at large. And what was the riveting, complex issue that needed the full attention of every elected city official? Reworking the LA River? The Olympics? Homelessness? Global warming? Traffic? New development? Luring an NFL team to the city? None of the above. The matter was far more complex and life altering. Indeed, it spoke to the life-blood coursing through the veins of the nation’s second largest city, a matter that would rattle the structure of society as we know it. Put simply, the LA council was deciding how many cats can be legally housed in each household. After serious deliberation including massive citizen input and two trips to the entire city council, the decision thundered over the city like a pronouncement from Zeus on high: The regressive, unenforceable and restrictive three-cat-cap was rescinded and now the grateful citizens of this great city can legally have five cats in the house. And that, my friends, is why summer is called the silly season.

IN APPRECIATION Library staff thanks supporters of reading program Now that the summer is officially over, the Bishop Library would like to wholeheartedly thank the local businesses that supported the 2015 Summer Reading programs. Our thanks go out to Back Alley Bowling, Great Basin Bakery, Looney Bean, Range and River Books, and Spellbinder Books. Your generosity was the cherry on top of a great summer! We appreciate all that our local businesses do for our community! Bishop Library staff Bishop Gratefully going beyond the barrier of shopping locally We are writing this letter to show our great appreciation to a few local people that have helped us through the remodel of our new house and the sale of our old house. We would like to start by saying that buying locally is sometimes a challenge in our area. We have to admit that we did go out of town at first to shop around for items that we were going to need for our remodel. I had been into High Country Lumber and looked around and Kim Jones in the design shop helped me. I explained to her that we had been out of town and she said “Hey, maybe before you buy out of town can you give us a shot at pricing it for you.” We thought about it and we took a bid that we had gotten from a big box store – Lowes – and gave it to Kim and she said “OK I will call you by tomorrow and give you a price.” Kim did in fact call us the next morning and gave me the price. I was shocked at how much cheaper she was. We told her to go ahead and order it. This was the beginning of our great experience with High Country Lumber. Kim Jones then sold me tile and helped me out whenever we needed it. She gave me dates of when to expect things to happen and she met every deadline on time with no delays. I was extremely impressed. The price also never wavered either. Pat Perkins from the design shop was the one who installed our kitchen cabinets and counter and he did a wonderful professional job. It is perfect, exactly how we wanted it. Just awesome service from the design shop. As our project went on we needed other things from High Country and Colby Ingram at the contractors desk started helping us. Wow, he went above and beyond to help us get things ordered for us. Needless to say we never went out of town again through this process nor did we have to thanks to High Country Lumber. They priced everything wonderfully for us and the customer service that we received was extraordinary. We would highly recommend to anyone to shop locally first. It saved us a bunch of money and the experience was wonderful. They never missed a deadline for us.

But Inyo Networks cannot offer links to individuals or homes, only to other Internet service providers, governments, medical facilities, schools and businesses, he said. Although Inyo Networks can charge “a fraction” of the price for high-speed Internet, installing that direct link to the fiber line in a local business is “not a cheap option,” he noted. Indeed, since the fiber has to be buried underground, getting the line to a commercial business can cost tens of thousands of dollars, depending on many variables, Beddingfield said. The business owners and chamber members at the meeting said they would be working with Beddingfield to determine how to route the fiber cable to several businesses at once so they could split the construction and installation costs. Once the fiber is installed, Beddingfield said the cost of monthly service is “a fraction of the cost” charged by other providers. The primary reason Inyo Networks can offer the service so cheaply is because of a $101 million federal grant paid to install the fiber line 583 miles from Barstow, Calif., to Reno, Nev., he said. The “fiber backbone” is buried roughly along US 395, and the project was completed on time and on budget, he noted. After the construction work, the high-speed Internet was provided to 251 GEMS (Government, Education, Medical and Service Providers) along the length of the line, he said. Currently, there are more than 500 customers (including GEMS) on the network, and Inyo Networks has had “zero complaints,” Beddingfield said. “It really, really works.” The line’s capacity is staggering. Beddingfield held up a small section of the fiber cable, which was less than an inch in diameter. He said there were 432 strands of fiber line in the cable. Right now, those 500 customers are using two of those strands. In another example, Beddingfield said a large, highend hotel in Mammoth Lakes Continued from front page goals as well.” Adkins explained that the 22 new systems installed through the DOE/GRID project will add 58 kW of rated capacity to tribal rooftops, displacing at least 60 percent of the total grid-supplied electricity use for those homes. It is estimated that over the lifetime of these systems approximately 1,500 tons of greenhouse gas emissions will be prevented, adding to the 4,750 tons from systems already installed. The homeowners are expected to have $490,000 lifetime savings as well. Following the kick-off event on Tuesday, the tribe will be hosting an energy fair at the Owens Valley Paiute-Shoshone Cultural Center from 4-7 p.m. to help connect local electric utilities and solar energy contractors with reservation homeown- ers looking for affordable ways to conserve energy use in the home. Since the beginning of the solar initiative on the reservation in 2013, 30 tribal members, including six women, have received training in solar system installation, Adkins said. An additional eight to 10 tribal members attended an orientation Tuesday to become solar installation trainees. Cliff Beddingfield, of Inyo Networks, holds a small section of the fiber cable that is the “backbone” of the Digital 395 Project. The line has 432 strands of fiber, and only two are being used by the more than 500 customers currently accessing the fiber network for highspeed data and Internet service. Those customers include local governments, schools, medical facilities and businesses. Photo by Jon Klusmire purchased the fiber Internet service, and on one busy weekend when the hotel was full, 2,200 devices (computers, pads, phones, etc.) were accessing the Internet without a slowdown or any problems. While Inyo Networks focuses only on businesses and commercial enterprises, the county Obsidian Project will be geared to obtaining grants to build a fiber-based Internet distribution network for residents in the county’s communities, according to Brandon Shultz, the county’s head of Information Services. Shultz said when Digital 395 was first proposed, the region’s Internet service providers wanted to be the middleman between the fiber line and residential customers. Some providers, but not all, have purchased extra bandwidth from Inyo Networks and offered faster Internet connections and service. However, there is, once again, a high start-up cost in new equipment to handle the fiber, he added. By using federal grants to build the fiber network in communities so residential costumers will have access, then contracting with service providers to run the system, the county’s Obsidian Project should be able to provide inexpensive Internet access to costumers, since neither the users, the county or the provider will have to repay the costs to build the system, Shultz said. “But it’s not going to happen overnight,” Shultz said, with an ambitious project schedule estimating it will take at least three years to wire the entire Owens Valley. Smaller communities such as Keeler and Darwin will be first in line, since federal grants are geared to providing Internet to “unserved or under-served” communities first, Shultz said. “Everything is in place” for the first round of grant applications. The business leaders at the meeting said they would provide letters of support for the Obsidian Project to local, state and national elected officials and other government agencies involved in the project.

It has become one of the most popular and widely used drugs of choice. An administrator at a local high school recently told me that the smell of vape lingers in the air in almost every bathroom at school no matter what time of the day he enters. This past year, all districts have added e-cigarettes and vaping devices to their tobacco-free policy, making the possession of them a disciplinary issue for students and banning adults from using them on school grounds and ball fields. Liquid THC, Spice, and other illegal drugs can also be vaped.

Chastity Logan, who, along with her husband, William, are opening Grand Vapors, said Thursday that the push-back they are getting about the store is nerve wracking and frustrating. Logan said she finds it disconcerting that since she and her husband began working towards opening their business that vaping has become a seemingly major issue within the community. “Why wasn’t (vaping) a big deal until we announced plans to open a store?” Logan asked. “And how come schools can’t control vaping and smoking already?” Logan does not believe that a store dedicated to vaping products is going to increase its availability to minors, pointing out that no one under the age of 18 will be allowed into Grand Vapors. “I guarantee not to sell to minors,” Logan said. “I am dead serious, we don’t want kids in the store.” “Kids go to K-Mart, buy a prepaid debit card and use it to buy vaping products online,” Logan observed. “Why not target online suppliers? What about parents allowing this? It makes no sense.” Find what you need and what you want in The Inyo Register Classifieds!

LINE STREET • BISHOP, CA 93514 (760) 872-2522 The Inyo Register A-6 SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 2015 Inyo County Juvenile Center: More than meets the eye Teen gives insight into the juvenile justice system of Inyo County By a Keith Bright School student When people think of the Inyo County Juvenile Center in Independence, they probably think of a place meant to lock away troubled teens, keeping them out of the community for their own good and the good of society. But what really goes on behind those brick walls and tall chain-linked fences? Simply stated: a lot. ICJC is a healthy environment for minors. Many teens have been able to greatly improve not only their bodies but also their general health. Three well-balanced, nutritious meals and snacks are provided daily. Minors participate in a variety of individualized staffconducted exercise programs. A nurse is available upon request for any health issues or questions that might arise. Under the direction of the Inyo County Probation Department, the ICJC staff provides teens in their care with essential skills that they’ll be able to use to be successful following their release. Sewing, gardening, and cooking are just a few of the many skills ICJC offers teens who are admitted into the system. Not only do minors learn everyday living skills, most leave with coping skills necessary to help control anger, impulses, depression, and other negative behaviors in order to make positive changes. Education is a priority at ICJC. The Keith Bright School, a satellite campus of the Bishop Unified School District, provides year-round educational opportunities for students. Students receive all mandated services. These services include resource support, Title 7 Support and career and college counseling. The small classroom environment allows students to receive oneon-one attention and instruction needed for course completion and credit recovery. For some students, remaining at ICJC and Keith Bright is their opportunity to concentrate on their studies and graduate: eight students have The public is invited to watch the “Supermoon” Total Lunar Eclipse starting at sunset, around 6:30 p.m., on Sunday, Sept. 27, at the Independence Creek Campground, one mile west of town. Photo submitted Shown under the ICJC motto are a few of the quilts completed for this year’s donations and the materials used by students and staff to promote healthy choices, personal achievement, and participation in the arts. Photo submitted earned their diplomas during the last two years. Teens benefit from the many programs the ICJC staff provides. Some of the programs taught by staff are: the Boy’s Town Point Model, Anger Replacement Therapy (ART), Forward Thinking Journaling Program, Effective Practices in Community Supervision (EPICS), Motivational Interviewing, and Skill Streaming for Adolescence. Another program, Power Source, is regularly utilized and facilitated by minors who have earned Achievement status. This valuable program teaches leadership skills while providing peer counselling and sharing opportunities for all participants. Inyo County Health and Human Services provides additional support to minors who need them. For example, the WRAP Around program works with minors and their families so the transition home will be successful. The Independent Living Program provides teens who will be on their own with everyday living skills. Opening bank accounts, filling out job applications, obtaining driver’s licenses or ID cards, learning to shop within a budget, and setting up a household are some of the many vital skills ILP teaches.

Minors are not limited to working with county departments. Members of the community and other organizations regularly volunteer their time. These include: Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous, members from local churches, the CASA program, the Toiyabe Writing Circle, numerous artists, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, the Trout in the Classroom program, the Bishop Tribe, the Inyo Council for the Arts, the Mono Lake Committee, the operatic duo known as the Amazing Vox, the California Highway Patrol Start Smart Driving program, and the Top to Top Global Climate Expedition. Students also learn the importance of giving back to the community. One of the most interactive and successful programs at ICJC is the quilting program introduced by Supervisor Charlotte Lange. Each year minors create on average 30 beautiful quilts, each one unique and individualized. During the process, minors learn basic sewing and quilting skills, the importance of following directions, and how to work as a team. Each ICJC quilt is made in stages so as many as four youths might work on any one quilt. It is this fact alone that adds to each quilt’s character as each minor adds his or her own personal touch. A lot of time and energy goes into each quilt, and it’s worth it knowing the quilts are donated as Christmas gifts to people who need and appreciate them. Those who have benefited from the approximately 270 quilts made so far include local service people on active duty in Iraq through the MOMs group, elders and senior citizens in Lone Pine, Bishop, Independence and Lee Vining, children in foster care, and even as donations to be raffled off in fund raisers. This year’s quilts are already wrapped and ready for delivery to their lucky recipients. Inyo County Juvenile Center is more than a place to lock away troubled teens. It is a place where minors are treated with respect and given the opportunity to grow and mature, to learn and succeed, to become healthy in mind and body. All who stay at ICJC are given the chance to be seen as more than juvenile delinquents. So, next time you think about ICJC, don’t think of a place solely meant to lock away troubled teens, but as a place created to help youth recover from their past and grow into their future.

Watch Super Moon Total Lunar Eclipse Celestial events have been unique in history Special to the Register The moon will be putting on a show on Sunday. .First, it will be a full moon. Actually, it will look a bit brighter and bigger than usual, since it will be a “Super Moon.” .The big moon will then be eclipsed. Literally. To add some drama, during the full lunar eclipse, the moon will turn red, which earns it the title, “Blood Moon.” Shortly afterward, darkness will slide over the entire moon. The stargazing public is invited to watch and learn about this intriguing celestrial event on Sunday, Sept. 27, at the Independence Creek Campground, one mile west of Independence. Knowledgeable volunteers and large telescopes will be on hand to guide the viewing and provide background information about the eclipse and other astrological items. .To catch the Blood Moon/ Super Moon Total Lunar Eclipse, gather at the far end of the first campground out of Independence on Onion Valley road just before sunset, which should be around 6:30 p.m. You can use binoculars to see the Blood Moon and the eclipse, but those who want a closer look can peer into one of two 10-inch telescopes from the Eastern California Museum. Be forewarned that the moon will not wait for you. It will start being covered by the Earth’s shadow fairly soon after rising, and then it should be in “full” eclipse around 7:30 p.m. Parking is available near the viewing site. Bring binoculars, a chair, probably a jacket, a telescope if you have one, and some curiosity. Call 760878-0258 for more information. Here’s what you can expect to see, with naked eye, binoculars or the telescope. The moon will be full, but it will look bigger and brighter than usual since it is in “lunar perigee,” which means it’s 30,000 miles closer to the Earth than usual (it’s still 220,000 miles away). The Earth will block the sun’s rays from hitting the moon, creating the lunar eclipse. The “shadow” will proceed across the moon in stages. Also, the moon will likely take on a red or coppery appearance, thus the “Blood Moon” moniker. According to space.com, there have only been five super moon lunar eclipses in the last century, and the last one occurred in 1982. The next total lunar eclipse will occur in 2018. Beginning in April 2014, there have been a series of four total lunar eclipses set six months apart, which is called a tetrad. We are lucky to see a tetrad, since there were none from 1600 to 1900.

The Inyo Register RELIGION A-8 SATURDAY, september 26, 2015 By the Creek Fictional theology No doubt I’m going to lose a few of you guys with this as I revert into my conservative waters of orthodoxy, but hear me out. First though, a confession, well, more of an admission: In general, I am not a fan of fiction – well, for the most part. Although I do appreciate parabolic writing, metaphor and analogy, I do not consider it a great value to invest time in reading the fiction genre. On a greater level of disdain, I strongly do not appreciate theological fiction; it blurs the lines of truth. At best it is benign-esque, at worst it is dangerous and misleading. So, be that as it is that’s where I stand. Still with me? Good. Let’s press on. Here’s my argument. It seems that we Christians present as very gullible these days especially when it comes to the latest “theological” fodder pulp-fiction, the “Heaven Tourism” genre; the new revelation of “visits” to Heaven. We claim to root ourselves in the sacred truths of antiquity, affirming the sufficiency of Scripture and all, then, some book or movie comes out which is most times not rooted in Scripture, and we run like lemmings to the sea to lap this stuff up (do lemmings “run,” I do not know). We look for anything even remotely close to a glimmer of Christian theological truth and then we champion the entire effort. A few cases in point – the “Left Behind” series; nine volumes of theological fiction, and I might add, confusion as it blurs Pastor Kelly Larson Columnist the lines between biblical absolutes and conjectural dross. Another is “Heaven is for Real,” the imaginary story of a boys’ journey to Heaven. Another is the recent movie “90 Minutes in Heaven” by Don Piper. And the list goes on. The message we portray in embracing these is dangerously adolescent. “Wow! What a great insight of end times!” Or, “Oh, boy, I have been waiting for some new revelation to come out. Finally after 2,000 years God has decided to speak through a four-year-old boy and communicate new revelation about the doctrine of Heaven.” True, one of the examples above is fiction presenting as fiction; the others are fanciful fiction presenting as truth; both however muddle biblical truth. We, as a believing community, should be demonstrating greater judgment and discretion. Perhaps, the most confusing of them all to me is the generat- ed applause which Christians gave to “The Shack.” I have even heard of errant churches engaging in Bible studies in order to extract the deep theological profundities from this heretical work. Satan should be the only one applauding, not followers of Christ. May I remind you that this book, along with the others is fiction. That plain and simple means – it is made up. In the case of “The Shack” it is fiction presented by an agnostic at best, and quite probably an atheist touting heresy about the Trinity. I don’t get it but some of its proponents, you would have thought, were going to tear out some of its pages and slip them into their Bibles right along the inspired writings of Paul and John as though they carried the same level of insight of God’s true agents. “Wow! This book gives me a better picture of Trinitarian theology.” As if the true Biblical picture given were somehow deficient. When we are generating our theological foundations or clarities based on works of fiction, by those of questionable spiritual merit, there is a problem. I have heard the arguments. “It’s just good clean fun.” “What’s wrong with it, at least it’s based on the Bible?” These afterlife fictional works are being sought by evangelical publishers and foisted upon the unsuspecting who claim to be in Christ. That coupled with the fact that the discernment of evangelicals seems to be at an all-time low bodes poorly for the witness, health, and integrity of the church. Is “Heaven is for Real” for real? The answer is, “No!” If we are to look to the Bible for absolute truth we would see this very clearly. Proverbs 30:4 asks this question, “Who has ascended into heaven and descended?” In John 3:13 Jesus gives a very clear, irrefutable response: “No one has ascended into heaven, but He who descended from heaven: the Son of Man.” Is Heaven for real? The answer is an emphatic, “Yes!” But it is not contingent upon the mystical fabrications of any uninspired human author; it is categorically true based upon the Word of God. You may disagree with me and label this a rant; I say this as a very stern exhortation to the body of Christ. I know it sounds harsh, but I’m trying to look out for you! If it doesn’t promise true doctrinal value, why are you putting it in your brain? When did the Bible and theology become entertainment? We would do better to invest our time searching the truth of God’s Word rather than the fictional false teachings, fanciful delusions, or demonic fabrications of those unconcerned with our spiritual well being.

At that time the park had only been open about five years, so it was not the electronicized wonderland it and its successors are today. The fantasy, romance, and wonder Disney created was still rooted in the ingenuity of using what was actual to create where imagination could go. The results were ingenious for their time. One of the wonders for me was the merry-go-round in Fantasyland, just out the back door of Sleeping Beauty’s Castle. Even though all it did was take me around in a circle, I never knew what stout steed or vehicle I would ride, what fairy tale would be called to mind, who would be riding with me, or how long the ride would last. In my young mind, mysteries were everywhere. It was the mystery-go-round, and I did not want it to stop. Life is a mystery-go-round. We are on it even before we are born. As time passes we ride different vehicles to get us to where we would like to be. Philip Severi Columnist Some are of our own choosing, some not. We set a path for ourselves (the fairy tale), but have to find a routine (that circle) that will aid us in reaching the goal at the end. Other people come along for the ride; some we have invited, some who just show up. For most of us, we never really want the ride to stop. Thing is, the longer we ride the mystery-go-round the more we come to understand that so much of what we think of as life really is a mystery, no matter how routine things may be. Do not misunderstand. There are things we can choose that do make a difference for us, or aid us in getting where we would like to be. But there are others which are completely uninvited, possibly intrusive, and sometimes life-changing. One example from my own life points up both sides of the mystery. Despite having to work full time, I was able to finish my formal education in only two years after graduating with my bachelor’s degree because I tested for and received a grant that paid for most of my master’s program. But the decision to use that grant and get that last two years out of the way as quickly as possible cost me my family. Half way through, with the end in sight, my spouse decided to get off what had been our mutual mystery-go-round. The results of that parting were not pleasant, but the original circumstance, obtaining the grant, was good. The subsequent ride was wild for a time, but eventually settled out. I still became a teacher. The point? Life is a mysterygo-round for each of us, with many unknown points and people encountered along the way. It may even seem that in riding the circle of life we are getting nowhere, right up to the time each of us must get off. But nothing could be further from the truth. As it was when I was a child, we only ride the mysterygo-round. We do not design it. The Designer has full knowledge and full control of every aspect of our ride. None of it is a mystery to Him. Hence we are told, “Trust God from the bottom of your heart; don’t try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for God’s voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; He’s the one who will keep you on track.” (Proverbs 3:5-6, The Message) (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.) Welcoming your desired life Your thinking takes you where you want to go. Good, bad or indifferent, your thought is the guiding light for your future. When it first dawns on the individual of how much they have contributed for all the situations and circumstances of their individual life, and ultimately for local, regional and even global events, it can be somewhat overwhelming. It takes a bit of pondering to realize how much influence and power you have. In mathematics there is a concept of randomness, but there is nothing random about the power of ideas followed by thought. You were brought into this life to succeed. You were given the power of choice, in order to step into whatever is your highest and best. All of the wisdom of the ages has been, and is, available at all times, and you have ready access to it. Nothing has been withheld to move you forward to the good, and very good promised. No recession, bad environment, or physical handicap can hold down the individual determined to rise above conditions. People consciously or Rev. Walt Sharer Columnist unconsciously chose to be what they are. They go where their minds take them. Repressive and dictatorial religious organizations have attempted to control people with guilt and fear from their Divine purpose. Keeping people subjective to their doctrines and dictates have inhibited advancement in many areas, such as: the scientific advances of the ages and spiritual realizations of their own value. Contrary to many doctrines proclaiming to be the only true church, God chose to incarnate through man, as man. Many people sustain their relationship with the old order because it told them how to act and what to do. The idea of independent thought was discouraged and condemned at times. To advance in thought and subsequently positive results, there must be a conscious denial of negative or limited thought. Religious Science has proved there is no ultimate reality to sickness, lack, guilt or frustration. All of these are curable through spiritual realization. Your body cannot make you sick, your mind does. Conditions and circumstances are drawn to you through the use of your mind. Thoughts and beliefs which will limit experience act as a magnetic attraction negatively. Contrast that with thoughts and desires, with acceptance, for a wonderful and satisfying life experience. There are no limits to the power of thought and its effect on your life. With the realization that you have the responsibility for the people, places and events of your life can come a whole new heaven and a whole new world. If you don’t like the way things are going, you can change it. It may sound simplistic to the pessimist, but it does take a conscious determination to be all that you can be, and to turn completely away from the conditioned past, and look to the good which is already within you. God has not withheld your good. It has always been within you, awaiting your acknowledgment of it. Let your way be made, whole, perfect, intelligent, peaceful and illuminating. You are Special! Celebrate it! God is Love and Loving You Right Now! (The Rev. Dr. Walt Sharer is minister at Bishop Church of Religious Science, located at 129 E. Line St., Bishop. Rev. Freda Lindsay and Rev. Walt officiate the weekly, Sunday services at 10 a.m. You can hear Rev. Walt’s message on “The Devotional Hour” on Sierra Wave KSRW 92.5 FM Sunday mornings at 8:30. The church can be reached at 760873-4195 for more information.) From the Pulpit ‘A hop, skip and a jump’ “A hop, skip and a jump” was always a funny phrase my mother would use with me describing tasks that were simple and free. Mowing the lawn was a hop, a skip, and a jump. Pulling a few weeds in the garden was likewise. We all realize that the matters of life are not always a hop, skip and a jump. The baby that awakes during the night not once, twice, but three times is not a hop, skip and a jump. The demands of work, getting along with those close to us, working out the rough edges in one’s marriage, or planning a vacation that everyone will enjoy, is not a hop, skip and a jump. Consider Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith. He who knew no sin became sin for us, that we would be delightful in God’s eyes. Life was not a hop, skip and a jump for the Lord. He came as the man of sorrows to grant us eternal joy. Hanging on the cross for six hours was no hop, skip or jump for our Lord. Dying and rising is no hop, skip or jump for you. However, in his grace and power all believers are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. His innocence was traded for our guilt, His heaven was traded for our Hell, His eternal life was traded for our temporal existence. Faith in Him does not guarantee a hop, a skip and a jump Rev. Kent Puls Columnist through life. However, knowing Him, the author and finisher of Faith and Life, is to know the joy of sins forgiven daily and richly. To know Him is to know Heaven, and all those who will greet us when we arrive. There will be plenty of hopping, skipping and jumping when we join that throng. See you Sunday. (The Rev.

After many years of therapy, I have turned my life around and finally am able to feel like a worthwhile person. The trouble is, my older sister continues to be verbally abusive every time we get together, which, fortunately, is not too often. I recently bit the bullet and tried again, getting together with her and my two other sisters. Sure enough, “Betty” took the opportunity to taunt and yell at me, and ended up swinging her fists at me. This resulted in a PTSD episode for me. I’ve finally decided to have nothing further to do with Betty, but it leaves me with feelings of guilt, since she is my sister. Am I justified in cutting off our relationship? – Tired of Being Abused Dear Tired: Yes. Your abusive mother obviously left Betty with some anger issues of her own, but being related to someone doesn’t mean you have to put up with abuse. Ever. You were wise to get therapy so that you could improve your life. It might help to ask your therapist to work on developing coping strategies for situations that could be triggers for you. Overcoming abuse can be an ongoing process. Dear Annie: My 22-yearold son frequently has his KATHY & MARCY buddies drop over for a visit. Sometimes I’m a captive audience to their conversations. These guys (and sometimes gals) don’t seem to understand that they should show some respect in their conversation due to the age difference between us. I realize that they frequently use vulgar language when in the company of their peers, but am I out of line asking them to curtail their potty mouths in my presence? Not only does it annoy and sometimes embarrass me, but also it makes them sound like illiterate heathens. I guess they’re not out to impress. – Annoyed Mother Dear Annoyed: Some parents would find it flattering that their children’s friends feel comfortable enough around them to speak freely. But you are right that it is also disre- spectful, treating you as though your sensitivities don’t matter. It is OK for you to say, “Your language is making me blush. I would appreciate it if you would keep it under control.” Or you can speak to your son and ask him to tell his friends that they need to be more careful in your presence. But you also do not need to be in the room when they are visiting. If your son lives with you, then he should be able to invite his friends over without his mother listening to the conversation. In fact, their vulgar language may be their way of getting you to leave the room. Unless you are willing to tell your son that his friends are not welcome, we suggest you absent yourself as much as possible, even if it means taking a long walk or going out to a movie. It also might be time to encourage your son to find a place of his own. Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Salome’s Stars ARIES (March 21 to April 19) A workplace change doesn’t seem to have turned out quite as you’d hoped. Never mind: Just treat yourself to a healthy dollop of that Aries self-confidence, and you’ll soon view things differently. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Some of the support you might have hoped for in a difficult situation might not be there. But you have the strength to rely on your own capabilities if you must. Good luck. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A disagreement with a longtime friend can be painful, but it also can be a learning lesson. Insist on a full and complete airing of views. You’ll both come away the better for it. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) A stalled relationship can be restarted with some give and take on both sides. And while it could take more time than you expect, don’t rush it. Be patient, and let it happen naturally. LEO (July 23 to August 22) An opportunity to move a long-stalled project from concept to construction might be opening up for the Big Cat. Meanwhile, be prepared to spend more time dealing with family matters. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Use your Virgo organizational skills to line up support to help you deal with a sticky workplace problem. A personal matter also might be helped with friendly intervention. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Trying to resolve a workplace problem with a longtime associate can be difficult. Consider bringing in an impartial third party to help you both reach a mutually acceptable solution. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) This is a good time to assess your current career situation. Consider whether you have a chance to move up where you are Last Week’s Answers now, or if you should look elsewhere. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) With education being a dominant part of this week’s aspect, one of the things you might want to think about is taking courses to enhance your career opportunities. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) You might have a problem trying to stay focused on a matter you’d rather not deal with. But the sooner you do, the sooner it will be resolved and out of the way. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) An unforeseen complication creates a difficult problem. But things get resolved once you use your ability to turn negative situations into positive experiences. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) The Pisces penchant for doing the right thing at the right time helps you deal with a particularly troublesome situation. Consider your best option, and act accordingly. BORN THIS WEEK: Although you might sometimes seem rigid in your views, your love of justice makes you a trusted friend everyone can rely on.

The Inyo Register mountain report A-15 SATURDAY, september 26, 2015 Sierra Sojourns Forest hikes are fine, especially in fall Hilton Lake No. 4 is a great place for a long, relaxing lunch. Photo by Craig Jackson (Hiked on Sept. 19, 2015) Walking below stout Lodgepole pine trees and next to immense Sierra junipers makes for a great day of hiking. Some hikes have great long distant views of giant mountain peaks and ranges, while others simply travel through forested terrain with limited all-around vistas. Each hike has its advantages and disadvantages but it really doesn’t matter because being outdoors is great regardless of the views. The hike from Rock Creek Lake to the Hilton Lakes fills the bill with all of the above and more. To reach the trailhead at Rock Creek Lake turn off of U.S. Highway 395 at Tom’s Place, 24 miles north of Bishop. Follow Rock Creek Road for 8.9 miles to Rock Creek Lake and the Hilton Lakes trailhead on the right side. Look for a new sign at the start of the trail about 100 yards north of the parking area. There’s a bathroom across the street next to some bear boxes and a trailhead map and sign. Start the hike by walking back up the road to the start of the trail on the left. Immediately enter a grove of aspens that are presently changing from green to yellow, gold and orange. The path starts uphill with great views down to Rock Creek Lake, Rock Creek Canyon and across to Wheeler Crest. This is a great spot for fall colors and photos. Trees soon obscure the vistas as the trail levels out and enters a nice shaded forest. The undulating trail rises slightly here and there with great long distance views to the east. Last week the fall colors were just Craig Jackson Columnist starting to appear across the canyon. This is a perfect time to hit the trail, not only is it still seasonably warm, but the new colors are out of sight. At 3.5 miles from the trailhead, the trail starts switchbacking down into Hilton Creek Canyon. The 300-foot descent ends at a trail junction four miles from the start. A right turn takes you down slightly to Hilton Lake No. 1 (Davis Lake) and Hilton Lake No. 2, while making a left at the junction heads up canyon to Hilton Lakes 3 through 10 and magnificent 12,000foot peaks above Hilton Creek Canyon. On this hike a left turn is made and immediately begins some pretty steep switchbacks. Davis Lake and Hilton No. 2 come into view farther up the trail. A half mile from the junction, cross over Hilton Lake No. 3’s outlet and arrive at beautiful Hilton Lake No. 3. This gem sits below Lakes 4 through 10 with a great view up Hilton Creek Canyon. I continued on the trail around Hilton Lake No. 3 and passed two tents on my left and a bag hanging highly from a tree on the right. Hilton Lake No. 5 below Mount Huntington. Hilton Creek Canyon and the five other lakes are up the canyon on the left. This adventure took me half way around Hilton No. 3 until I noticed a couple of ducks (stack of rocks) on my left and a use trail that heads up Hilton Creek Canyon. Initially, the trail is somewhat tough to follow, but there’s just one way to go and that’s up. In between trees and around rocks and soon enough the trail levels out and arrives above the shore of Hilton Lake No. 5. With massive Mount Huntington (12,394 feet) on the right and the surrounding peaks all around, this is the ideal Sierra spot. I left Hilton No. 5 and proceeded cross country over a ridge and had a blast climbing down a rocky ravine until reaching the shore of Hilton Lake No. 4. Although lower than Lake No. 5, Mount Huntington’s dramatic north face looks awesome from Hilton No. 4. Great hour-plus lunch on a smooth rock at the shore and before long was back on the trail heading back to Hilton No. 3 and completing the loop portion of the hike. While strolling happily down to Hilton No. 3, I saw what appeared to be some trash scattered about on the left side of the trail. I approached the torn- briefs Hikes planned by the Sierra Club Upcoming Sierra Club treks include: • Sierra Club Outing, Sunday, Sept. 27 – BUDD LAKE: Moderate six miles return trip in Tuolumne Meadows.

Photo by Craig Jackson through bags and immediately thought this was the same bag I saw hanging from a tree two hours earlier. I paused for a second, turned my head to the right and saw two bear cubs staring at me from about 25 feet away. I could see momma bear’s right backside as she was doing something out of my view. I estimated later that I stood there for a second and a half before quietly continuing on the trail and across the dry outlet creek. I stopped for another second, heard nothing and continued down the trail and away from danger. I love animals and so dearly would have liked to have gotten a picture but actual survival won out as I picked up the pace and arrived back at the junction to Rock Creek Lake. What a great return hike. It was back to my car as I recreated that brief moment in time in my head over and over again. This was the first time I’ve ever seen a bear in the wild and although I didn’t snap an actual photograph, that one-and-a-half-second picture is etched in my mind forever. At a glance: • Wonderful forest hike • Great fall colors • One to 10 different lakes, choose your pleasure • 11 miles round trip, 2,000-foot gain • Great after-hike food at Rock Creek Lake Resort and Tom’s Place (Craig Jackson is a Bishop resident and avid hiker/backpacker who enjoys exploring his new backyard after having relocated here in 2013 from Southern California. Email him at Sierracj51@gmail. com.) Birds of the Sierra Nevada The Sierra Audubon will host Ed Pandolfino who will present “Birds of the Sierra Nevada” from 7 to 8:30 p.m. Oct. 7 at the USFS-BLM Conference Room, 351 Pacu Lane, Bishop. A book-signing will following the presentation. Pandolfino is the co-author of “Birds of the Sierra Nevada.” Pandolfino will take attendees on a virtual trip across the range from the oak savanna in the west, through serene conifer forests of the west side, up into the majestic alpine regions, and down the steep eastern escarpment to the pinyon/juniper woodlands and open steppes of the Great Basin. The presentation will include the stunning diversity of birds that make the Sierra their home and how they use the various habitats in the Sierra. Pandolfino also will discuss which birds are in decline and which are expanding and increasing. There also will be a discussion to address some “mysteries” surrounding some of those species and how visitors to the Sierra can help to solve them.

Rambling Rafters as it appeared when owned by Dr. and Mrs. Jeffery. It still stands today on what has become the White Mountain Ranch. Photo by Pam Vaughan Photo by George Clarkson Sr., courtesy of George Clarkson Jr. George Clarkson Sr. Photo by George Clarkson Sr., courtesy of George Clarkson Jr. File photo Dr. Joseph Jeffery and his ranch Dr. Joseph Arthur Jeffery leaped off the Carson and Colorado Railroad as it slowed down at the Hammil Valley Depot. He had been warned by the conductor that the train did not stop. Jeffery had heard about a sillimanite deposit and purchased the claim but wasn’t quite sure of its exact location. He then proceeded to explore the area, camping in a variety of spots, but had no success. One night he climbed into his sleeping bag, and felt a large rock underneath the bag; he pulled it out. Sillimanite! Josephine and Joseph Jeffery at the ranch shortly before his death in 1942. She is wearing her everpresent hat. She always was smartly dressed. Courtesy of Michelle Woodhouse Pam Vaughan Columnist The very thing he had been looking for had found him. The rock had fallen onto the spot from the neighboring cliff. The deposit was then easy to locate. From then on, he kept this rock as a souvenir under a glass case. Dr. Jeffery was born in San Francisco and attended the University of California School of Dentistry. With his brother, Ben, he began experimenting with various materials for making dentures. Sillimanite, related to andalusite, was one of the substances; it had a high resistance to heat. It chipped easily, however, so he and his brother, Ben, along with brothers, Robert and Frank Stranahan, decided to try the material out in sparkplugs. It worked. The Stranahans had founded Champion Sparkplug Plug Co. in 1908. The Jeffery brothers with their sillimanite jumped on board in about 1915. Dr. Joseph Arthur Jeffery in a formal 1937 portrait. Photo by courtesy Jean McElvogue After locating the deposit, Dr. Jeffery bought the Perry Ranch (now the White Mountain Ranch) in Hammil Valley at the bottom of the canyon leading to the deposit. The ranch was to provide State-of-the-art feed mill where ranch workers ground up old or wet hay and mixed it with cottonseed and molasses for silage. The ranch had many visitors who came to see this facility. Photo by George Clarkson Sr., courtesy of George Clarkson Jr. Don “Mutt,” left, and George Clarkson Jr. with a work team.

The mine will be discussed in the author’s next article. To manage both the ranch and the mine, Jeffery chose George Clarkson Sr. because Jeffery needed to develop a power supply for the mine. Clarkson had been employed by NevadaCalifornia Power Company that had constructed the Bishop Creek power complex. He had also owned an 80-acre ranch west of Black Canyon. The Clarksons moved to the Jeffery Ranch in 1929, the year their son, George Jr., was born. The ranch was in three parts: 723 acres at its main location, 750 acres called the Taylor Ranch near Benton, and 400 acres in Watterson Meadows in the Glass Mountains for the summer range. The complex was mostly a hay ranch with about 400 head of cattle; they also raised sheep and pigs. They flood irrigated alfalfa, corn, and potatoes. They sold their surplus potatoes and meat to local markets such as Josephs and Safeway. There were no chickens because Mr. Clarkson did not like these fowl. The hay production became immense. On the west side of Highway. 6, there were three hay barns that held 550 tons of hay each. Two or three hay trucks from Los Angeles would frequently appear to pick up loads of hay. The ranch also sold hay to local folks and to the Sparkplug Mine’s pack camp owned by Ernest Kinney’s family. Sometimes an inspector from the California Department of Agriculture would appear. He would randomly push sampling tubes in bales of hay, and the hay was declared the highest quality in the state of California. There was a huge feed mill that was state of the art. It ground corn for animal feed that was mixed with cottonseed and molasses. It also chopped hay that wouldn’t sell or was water damaged. Bales sold for $16 per ton and bales sold individually for $1. Nowadays, it is $200 per ton or $10 per bale. During the summer haying season, there would be 10 men employed on the ranch. They were paid $5 per day and provided room and board at the boarding house that still partially exists. It was tough working seven days a week from 6:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. During the winter, there were four employees plus a cook. These guys fed the stock, milked six cows, and butchered the steers, pigs, and sheep as needed. It was a full-time job for one of these cowboys to watch the cattle. During World War II when gas was rationed, Clarkson hired one man at $2.50 each night to sleep in the back of a pick up with a mosquito net over the top. His job was to keep an eye on the farm equipment that surrounded him, so the gas wouldn’t be siphoned from the rigs. Dr. Jeffery built a big, beautiful house on the ranch that still stands today. He spent a month at the ranch once a year, and sometimes his wife, Josephine, would join him with her chauffeur and maid. She named all her houses, and named this house, “Rambling Rafters.” Most of the year, Jeffery lived in Detroit near the sparkplug factory. There was a bungalow for Clarkson and his wife, Louise, and two sons, George and Don (“Mutt”). The author recently spent time with George Clarkson Jr. at what is now the White Mountain Ranch. His old house still stands and functions as a home school. George Jr. related how initially Jeffery leased Adobe Meadows land for summer pasturage from the Symons family but later purchased land at Watterson Meadows. The cattle drive was a twoday affair that started in April or May depending on the snow. For this event, they hired such legendary From left, George Clarkson Jr., Richie Minaberry and Vasie Cline.

They had to work hard but had plenty of time for hunting and fishing off the ranch. Game was more abundant in those days including deer and sage grouse. To collect a little pocket money, George and Mutt would kill crows and magpies for the bounty. Louise drove them all the way into Bishop to go to school, stay in town at her sister’s, then drive them home in the afternoon. George, being the oldest of the boys, got his license at the age of 14 and transported them to school after that. By all reports, Dr. and Mrs. Jeffery were kind and generous people. The good doctor drove a Model A, and it was always exciting to have him at the ranch. Jeffery was good friends with the likes of Henry Ford and J. Edgar Hoover. Hoover had given Jeffery a .38 revolver that the doctor always carried. Dr. Jeffery died on Dec. 26, 1944, at the age of 71, and Josephine held onto the ranch until 1947. George Sr. was given the option of buying the ranch, but he declined; he passed away in 1970. Josephine finally lived in Santa Barbara where she died. Dr. Jeffery is buried in Colma near San Francisco. (Pam Vaughan is the photo archivist at the Laws Museum.

The Inyo Register sports A-17 SATURDAY, september 26, 2015 Broncos tennis serves up a close one Bishop ties Desert in matches; it comes down to a game count Register Staff Bishop traveled to Edwards AFB to take on the Desert Scorpions last Saturday. This was the second meeting between the teams. The first time Desert just edged by Bishop with a 10-8 victory. This time the Broncos managed to better that score with a tie match, 9-9. The coaches then had to count each game won for the day and see who had won the most. Desert came out on top with 79 to Bishop’s 72. “I knew it was going to be close” said Bishop tennis coach Patty Cummings. “We changed our doubles and singles teams around a little hoping to cinch the win but just missed it. It was the tie-breaker again that we could not close out. We have had three tie-breakers and have lost all three to Desert so we will be concentrating on these in practice this week.” Katrina Biehl played No. 1 singles for Bishop and was able to improve her record against Desert by beating the No. 2 and No. 3. Her scores for the day were 6-4, 6-0 and 3-6. Evelyn Lopez played a singles set losing 0-6 as did Tami Lee. Cayley Dishion lost 1-6, 0-6. Sam Hess was the other point in singles winning one of her matches 6-2 but dropping the other 0-6. In the doubles it was Madi Tomazek and partner MacKenzie Brown going to the tie-break but losing 5-7. Madi was also in a long tie-breaker the first time Bishop played Desert. The pair went on to win their other two sets for the day easily 6-4 and 6-1. Ivy Means and Lily McGrale were perfect for the day winning all 3 of their sets 6-3, 6-4 and 6-3. Josie Dillard and Caroline Hagopian won 1 set 6-2 but dropped their other 2 sets 5-7 and 3-6. Also playing singles for the day Nora Cimino won 6-0 and Alayna Stone lost 1-6. Next up for Bishop is a road trip to play Rosamond on Sept. 29. “Things are starting to fall into place now so I’m confident we will continue to improve our scores,” said Cummings. Lily McGrale, shown above playing singles against Desert in Bishop earlier this month, was undefeated with her doubles partner Ivy Means on the road trip to Desert last week.

The Broncos came back in the second half to score a touchdown and 2-point kick PAT. Standout performances came from game MVP “Sledgehammer” Luke McClean who had 2 runs for 40 yards and 2 receptions for 45 yards. McClean combined his on-field play with great attitude and leadership qualities to earn the MVP honor. Jayden Braithwaite recorded the team’s only touchdown by way of reception, along with 12 carries for over 50 yards and several key tackles; Clay Omohundro had a stellar game at QB throwing a touchdown pass; Wes Pettet excelled with multiple completed passes including a 35 yarder to McClean, several solid carries at RB and blocks – Pettet also lead the team in tackles for the third straight game; Tristan Valle had a fumble recovery; Manny Talavera scored a 2 point PAT kick and also had several rush attempts in his excellent effort. Division II The Bishop Youth Football Division II team went to 3-0 winning their game on Saturday 21-6. Bishop scored first with a 12-yard run by Kenyan Piper. Cain Omohundro had a 2-yard punch into the end zone; a PAT reception by Colt Matteson made it 13-6. The defense had sacks from Jarred Lomatiwa and Kennedy Batchelder. In the fourth quarter the youth Broncos put the game away with a 20-yard touchdown run by Colt Matteson and a PAT kick by Reece Marsh. “Sledgehammer” Luke McClean gets ready to receive a kick.

A generic term for a large group of diseases that can affect any part of the body, cancer is characterized by the rapid creation of abnormal cells that grow beyond their usual boundaries. These abnormal cells can then invade adjoining parts of the body and may even spread to other organs. Pinpointing the precise cause of a particular instance of cancer is difficult, but researchers have linked certain lifestyle choices with higher incidences of cancer. While there’s no guarantee a person who makes only healthy lifestyle choices will live life cancer-free, making the right choices can greatly reduce a per- son’s risk of developing this potentially devastating disease. • Avoid tobacco. Tobacco is bad for you and the people around you, according to various studies that have linked smoking to several forms of cancer. Such studies have discovered a link between tobacco and cancers of the lung, bladder, cervix, and kidney, while chewing tobacco has been linked to pancreatic cancer and cancer of the oral cavity. Secondhand smoke also can increase the cancer risk for those around you, including your children. Studies from the United States Department of Health and Human Services and the National Cancer Institute found that 69 of the toxic chemicals in secondhand smoke cause cancer. • Eat smaller portions. High-calorie diets can increase your risk of being overweight or obese, which the NCI has linked with cancers of the esophagus, pancreas, colon and rectum, breast, and kidney, among others. • When consuming alcohol, do so in moderation. If you like to consume alcohol, it’s best to do so only in moderation. The National Toxicology Program of the DHHS lists consumption of alcohol as a known human carcinogen, noting that the more alcohol a person drinks regularly over time the higher his or her risk of developing an alcohol-associated cancer becomes. Alcohol consumption has been linked to head and neck cancer, esophageal cancer, liver cancer, and breast cancer. • Protect your skin from the sun and UV radiation. The American Cancer Society notes that excessive exposure to UV radiation Applying and reapplying sunscreen is one way men, women and children can effectively reduce their risk for developing cancer. from sunlight or tanning beds and lamps is a significant risk factor for skin cancer. Avoid the sun when UV rays are at their strongest, typically in midday between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. If you must be outdoors during these times, stay in the shade and generously apply sunscreen, reapplying frequently. Tanning beds may seem like a safe alternative to natural sunlight, but such beds can be just as harmful. Making certain healthy lifestyle choices may not guarantee you stay cancer-free, but such choices can greatly reduce your risk of developing various forms of cancer. The Inyo Register Find your road to WELLNESS B-2 SATURDAY, september 26, 2015 Power of a positive attitude A balanced diet, exercise, genetics, and even certain medications can work in concert to make a person healthy. But a person’s demeanor also can factor into personal health. The Mayo Clinic says that whether or not a person is an optimist or a pessimist can affect many areas of his or her health and well-being, and those who see the glass as half-full may ultimately be healthier than those who see it as half-empty. Positive thinking can make it easier to manage stress. The body responds differently based on an individual’s mood, and it may produce stress hormones if a person’s outlook is negative. Such stress hormones can compromise the immune system, increase blood pressure and even reduce the body’s ability to burn fat effectively. Thinking negatively and being on edge also can increase a person’s risk for developing cardiovascular disease and aging prematurely. Conversely, maintaining a positive attitude can be good for your health. Studies have shown that thinking positively can lower rates of depression and anxiety, increase life expectancy and provide greater resistance to certain illnesses, such as the common cold. A 2012 preliminary study from researchers at Stanford University found that daughters of mothers suffering from depression were able to witness their own stress levels go down on a real-time brain scan as they switched from negative thoughts to happy ones. Researchers are unsure why positive thinking has such profound effects. But in addition to limiting stress-releasing hormones, positive thinking may inspire people to live healthier lifestyles that make them more likely to get routine physical activity and eat a healthy diet. Happy people also may be less likely to use tobacco products or alcohol as a coping mechanism when dealing with elevated stress levels, and such people will not have to deal with the side effects that can come with these unhealthy behaviors. Becoming a more positive thinker can take a little effort for those without a natural inclination for optimism. But because positive thinking boasts such significant health benefits, men and women might want to try the following methods to embrace their optimistic side. • Exercise. Start an exercise regimen, as physical activity naturally reduces stress and can improve mood. • Embrace humor. Surround yourself with others who bring a smile to your face. Look for ways to laugh as much as possible. Rather than go out to dinner or a bar with friends, head to a comedy club. Choose comedies at the movie theater and find humor in everyday happenings. • Identify areas that need change. Think about moments in life that may bring you down or inspire negative reactions. If work is problematic, figure out ways to make it better and work toward improving the situation. • Be supportive of yourself. Consider what you would say to others and then treat yourself the same way. Would you be overly negative or derogatory toward a complete stranger? Probably not, and there is no reason to be harsh with yourself, either. Push negative thoughts away. • Volunteer. One way to see the world in a more positive light is to help others who may be less fortunate than you. Volunteering not only helps others, but it also can help you put your own problems in perspective. Volunteering also helps you feel good about your efforts, which can translate into positive thinking. • Think like a child. Take a cue from youngsters and find joy in the little things. Let children be the leaders in activities and mimic what they do. You just may find yourself laughing more and enjoying yourself. Being silly for a little while is one way to recapture the feelings of youth. Positive thinking is more than the subject matter of self-help books. It’s a viable way to improve personal health and live longer. When a person laughs, his or her pulse and blood pressure increase, and people tend to breathe faster when they laugh. Faster breathing sends more oxygen to the tissues, which can help the heart and lungs work more efficiently. Laughter and positive thinking can be good for your health. Did You Know? Laughter is good medicine Laughter combined with positive thinking is a prescription for good health. Research shows laughter relaxes the entire body, relieving physical tension and stress for up to 45 minutes. Laughter decreases stress hormones and increases infection-fighting antibodies. Endorphins that promote an overall sense of well-being and relieve pain can be released from a hearty bout of laughter. Furthermore, laughter can increase blood flow throughout the body, which protects against hypertension and heart attack. The Inyo Register Find your road to WELLNESS SATURDAY, september 26, 2015 B-3 How breastfeeding benefits mother and child later in life Breastfeeding is a natural and often convenient method of providing nutrition to a growing infant. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advise that breast milk is widely acknowledged as the most complete form of nutrition, with a range of benefits for infants’ health, growth, immunity, and development. Formula can come close to replicating the benefits of breast milk, but many mothers still prefer to feed their youngsters their natural breast milk instead of formula. Due to its unique combination of nutrients, breast milk can present a number of health advantages that begin at birth and continue throughout a child’s life — even into adulthood. Some health experts believe that many of the health problems children face today can be prevented or decreased if they are exclusively breastfed up until six months of age. Benefits for baby Some of the initial benefits of breastfeeding include regulating healthy bacteria in the child’s digestive system. Breastfed babies may have fewer cases of ear infections, bacterial problems and gastrointestinal infections. Breast milk also can work as an antibiotic agent against E. coli, staph and other conditions, says the La Leche League. The American Pregnancy Association advises that colostrum, the first excretion of food from the breast, contains high contents of carbohydrates, proteins and antibodies to help keep a newborn healthy. It also acts as a natural laxative and can clear the stomach of excess bilirubin, which can contribute to jaundice. According to Baby Center, studies have shown that breastfeeding can reduce a child’s risk of developing certain childhood cancers. Scientists don’t know exactly how breast milk reduces that risk, but they think antibodies in breast milk may give the child’s immune system a boost. In time, breastfed children may have lower rates of obesity later in life, and some children who were breastfed have lower instances of food allergies and autoimmune conditions. Benefits for mother Studies indicate that breastfeeding helps improve mothers’ health as well as their children’s. Breastfeeding can help a woman lose excess weight after birth by burning many calories from lactation. It also will stimulate the release of the hormone, oxytocin, which causes the uterus to return to its normal size more quickly. Breastfeeding serves as a natural form of birth control, protecting a woman from becoming pregnant again too soon. The Natural Resources Defense Council says women who breastfeed are less likely to develop uterine, endometrial or ovarian cancer. Breastfeeding also may prevent a mother’s risk of developing osteoporosis later in life. Women who have breastfed attest to having an earlier and more substantial bond with their children as well, which can promote positive feelings and good mental health. Mothers should explore breastfeeding upon giving birth. Lactation consultants can help first-time mothers get started. Did You Know? A person’s mind can play a large role in how quickly he or she is able to lose weight. Exercise and diet alone may not be enough, and positive thinking can provide the extra boost some people need. A Harvard study found that mind over matter may extend to weight loss as well. The study followed 84 cleaning women, half of whom were told that their physically demanding jobs met the requirements for exercise as set by the Surgeon General, while the other half weren’t given any information about their activity level and calorie burn. After a month’s time, researchers discovered that the group of women who were told that their work activity was good for them reduced their body fat, waist-to-hip ratio and body mass index. These participants had not changed anything else about their daily exercise and eating habits. The other group of women who were given no positive reinforcement did not lose any weight. The Inyo Register Find your road to WELLNESS B-4 SATURDAY, september 26, 2015 How to make your exercise routine more eco-friendly Daily exercise is a great way for men and women to stay healthy and improve their quality of life. Studies have shown that men and women who include exercise as part of their regular routine have a lower risk for a host of ailments, including heart disease, stroke and diabetes. But exercise can benefit the planet as much as it can benefit people. The following are a handful of ways men and women can make their exercise routines more eco-friendly. • Start riding your bicycle. Riding a bicycle isn’t just for kids, as cycling has been linked to improved cardiovascular fitness and shown to be a great low-impact exercise for men and women with joint conditions. In addition, riding a bicycle is a great way to burn calories, even when riding at a leisurely pace. According to nutrition and fitness company NutriStrategy, a 205 lb. adult can expect to burn 372 calories during a 60-minute leisurely bike ride (less than 10 miles per hour), while the same person will burn just 233 calories during a slow walk for the same period of time. But cycling benefits the planet, too. Riding your bicycle to the gym or to work each day saves fuel and can add years to the life of your vehicle, reducing the costly toll of producing and transporting new vehicles. Cycling has even become safer in recent years as more and more people have embraced cycling as a healthy and eco-friendly mode of transportation. For example, bike lanes have become the norm in heavily trafficked New York City, where the bustling metropolis’ transportation department reported a 289 percent increase in cycling from Cycling is a great exercise for men and women looking to improve their personal health without negatively impacting the environment. 2001 to 2011. So cycling is not only healthy and environmentally friendly, but it’s becoming safer as well. • Avoid bottled water. Whether you’re a competitive athlete or a weekend warrior, you’re going to need to replenish your body’s water supply at some point. Bottled water might seem more convenient in a pinch, but the personal and environmental costs of that convenience is considerable. Bottled water is more expensive than tap water, and those who prefer bottled water because they think it’s healthier than tap water should know that 70 percent of the bottled water produced in the United States never crosses state lines for sale, which means it’s exempt from oversight by the Food and Drug Administration. So there is no guarantee that bottled water is any different from the water coming from your tap. But bottled water also hurts the environment, producing more than a ton of plastic waste each year. And according to Food & Water Watch, a watchdog organization that works to ensure the water we consume is safe, the plastic used in water bottles requires 47 mil- lion gallons of oil per year to produce. A reusable water bottle is a far more eco-friendly way to stay hydrated while you exercise. • Wear recycled gear. Athletes have numerous options at their disposal with regard to apparel. But not all apparel is created equal. According to Athletes For A Fit Planet, a vast majority of technical apparel is created from polyester, a material derived from petroleum. But many clothing manufacturers now produce apparel and gear made from recycled polyester apparel, and labels typically list whether or not a given product is made from such recycled materials. Athletes who want to go the extra mile regarding their apparel can recycle their used items when they are no longer up to snuff. Contact a local recycling center to learn about programs in your community, or visit an athletic apparel retailer and ask for their help. Making exercise a part of your daily routine is a great way to ensure your body stays healthy for years to come. Making such a routine as ecofriendly as possible can ensure the planet stays as healthy as you.
