Cabin Fire eludes containment Tribe’s suit
against Inyo
dismissed
Blaze burning in
Golden Trout
Wilderness
since July 19
lightning strike
By Terrance Vestal
Associate Editor
Fire officials are using a
combination of carefully
selected strategies to confine
and contain the Cabin Fire in
the Golden Trout Wilderness
of the Inyo and Sequoia
national forests, which had
burned more than 4,290
acres as of Wednesday morning, according to the U.S.
Forest Service.
The Cabin Fire started
July 19 from lightning and
was zero percent contained
as of Wednesday morning,
according to the agency.
A firefighter was injured
because of altitude sickness,
the Forest Service reported.
There have been no reported
structures destroyed.
There are 419 personnel
assigned to the blaze, down
from the 448 fighting the fire
on Tuesday.
The air quality around
Independence and the surrounding area because of the
smoke from the fire was categorized as “moderate”
Tuesday. It was forecast to
improve to “good” on
Wednesday and Thursday.
Visitors at Sequoia and
Kings national parks and surrounding areas may experience smoke from the Cabin,
Willow, Chorro and Rough
fires.
Fire activity moderated
over Tuesday night into
Wednesday morning. The
Forest Service reported
Wednesday there was a
smoke inversion over the fire
that limited the use of aircraft until later Wednesday
morning. The anticipated
growth of the fire
Wednesday was toward the
northeast away from communities.
Burn scars from the Lion
(2011) and Maggie (2006)
fires are slowing the northward movement of the fire.
These older fires were managed to benefit wilderness
values and reduce fuel loading. Firefighters have
improved the Summit Trail

Tribe alleges sheriff, district
attorney violated its sovereignty
By Terrance Vestal
Associate Editor
While a lawsuit that the Bishop Paiute Tribe filed against
Inyo County, the Inyo County sheriff and the Inyo County district attorney regarding the arrest of a tribal law enforcement
officer has been dismissed, the charges against the officer will
proceed.
The lawsuit that the tribe filed in March states Inyo County,
Inyo County Sheriff William Lutze and District Attorney
Thomas Hardy “are interfering with the Tribe’s inherent sovereign authority to take action, defined by tribal law, against
non-Indian perpetrators on Tribal lands.”
According to the Tribal Council, Johnson responded to a
tribal member’s call on Dec. 24, 2014 for protection in a disturbance by a non-Indian individual who has been ordered by
both the tribal and state courts to have no contact with the
tribal member.
As Johnson responded to the call, he requested assistance
from the Sheriff’s Department, a common practice when a
criminal complaint comes in to the department, Lutze has
said.
Lutze said the tribal officer allegedly used a Taser on the
subject accused of breaking the restraining order, removed her
from a vehicle and placed her in his squad car.
“The non-Indian in question is well known to both tribal
and local law enforcement,” according to the tribe’s lawsuit.
“During a nine-month period in 2014, tribal police responded
to 11 calls involving the suspect.”

Activists hope
to stir up awareness
‘Walking Water’ participants
to trek from
Mono Lake to Owens Lake
By Jon Klusmire
Register Correspondent
After 100 years of often angry conflict and confrontation, a
gathering of local and international water activists is poised to
present a softer, more personal approach to the battles over
water and resources that have linked the Owens Valley and
Southern California since the early 1900s.
About 50 people will come together in the Eastern Sierra at
the end of August to take part in Walking Water, a unique
effort to enhance awareness of water issues in Inyo and Mono
counties, California and around the world.
The community of pilgrims will take three weeks, from
Aug. 31 to Sept. 22, to complete a trek from Mono Lake to
Owens Lake. Along the way, they will “engage” local communities, generate publicity about “the water story” in the Owens
Valley and beyond, and share experiences and information
related to their personal connection to, and concern for the
future of water and the environment.
The walkers range from longtime local environmental leadSee walking E Page 5

Manhunt
underway for
‘armed and

near Jawbone
Canyon
By Darcy Ellis
Managing Editor
Kern County authorities
are scouring a remote area of
the Mojave desert not far
from Inyo County’s southern
border in search of a man
believed to have committed
three violent crimes last
week.
A senior deputy has been
quoted by the Associated
Press as saying officials had
obtained evidence Tuesday
confirming their suspicions it
was the same lone individual
who kidnapped three young
men at gunpoint July 28,
murdered a retiree in his
cabin within the next two
days and then injured two
sheriff’s deputies during a
shootout Saturday, Aug. 1.
The Sheriff’s Office

appearance with sun-weathered skin,” the press release
states.
The search area is specifically confined to a five squaremile radius around the intersection of Jawbone Canyon
Road and Kelso Valley Road,
where the transient shot at
SWAT members Saturday
around 8:30 p.m. as they
searched a mobile home.
According to Kern County
Sheriff’s
Office
Public
Information Officer Ray Pruitt,
the deputies exchanged fire
but it is unknown whether the
suspect was hit by any of the
shots.
It is believed he has armed
himself with handguns, rifles
and shotguns stolen from cabins and mobiles in between
Twin Oaks and Jawbone
Canyon.
The crime spree began in
Twin Oaks last Tuesday, July
28 when three men in their
late teens, early 20s surprised
the transient at a cabin owned
by one of the young men. It’s
believed he had been squatting on the property. The transient, according to reports,
asked the trio what they were
doing on his property and
when the real owner spoke up,
the suspect pulled out a shotgun and ordered them inside.
They were later able to escape
and run to safety, while the
suspect evaded authorities on
a stolen off-road vehicle found
abandoned two miles away
two days later.
The search for the man
intensified
after
David
Markiewitz, 64, a retired dentist, was found Thursday shot
to death in his cabin in Weldon,
10 miles east of Twin Oaks.
Pruitt told the L.A. Times that
investigators believe the suspect hiked over the Piute
Mountains using the Pacific
Crest Trail to reach Weldon, a
small town located between
Lake Isabella and State Route
14 south of Brady’s.
Following Saturday’s shootout, Kern County officials
issued a public notice and
composite sketch of their suspect, warning residents in the
communities of Jawbone
Canyon to stay inside with the
doors locked.
“We’re having to move very
slowly and meticulously,”
Pruitt is quoted in reports.
“This is a suspect we consider
to be armed and very dangerous. He has shown he is not
hesitant to engage law enforcement officers in a shootout.”
Here in Inyo County,
authorities are closely watching any developments in the
manhunt, and ready to
respond if needed.
“There’s no indication that
he’s crossed over into Inyo
County,” Sheriff’s Public
Information Officer Carma
Roper said Wednesday. “If
that should change, the
Sheriff’s Office is ready to
respond accordingly. The best
we can do at this point is
actively follow (Kern County’s)
search.”
Pruitt could not be reached
for comment yesterday by
press time.

suit
Johnson was involved in
eight of the 11 calls involving
the suspect and cited her four
times for violation of Tribal
Protective Orders, court documents show.
Following the latest incident, the subject, who was
accused of breaking the
restraining order, filed a complaint with the Sheriff’s
Department, claiming the tribal
police officer overstepped his
bounds.
Johnson was arrested Jan. 6
and charged with assault with
a stun gun, false imprisonment, falsely representing himself to be a public officer, all
felonies, and simple battery, a
misdemeanor.
According to Lutze, all violations of state and federal
laws must be handled by the
Sheriff’s
Department
or
California Highway Patrol.
“Following the arrest and
charging of Officer Johnson …
Defendant Sheriff Lutze sent
the Tribe a ‘Cease and Desist
Order’ threatening future
arrest and criminal prosecutions against the Tribe’s police
officers individually or collectively for discharging their official duties,” the tribe states in
its lawsuit.
“ … The arrest and prosecution of Officer Johnson, has
been well publicized and is
causing confusion and misunderstanding among non-Indians visiting and/or living on
the Reservation, leaving some

without authority to take
actions against them.”
The tribe requested that the
U.S. District Court declare that

and the threat of criminal pros-
Jr. pointed out in the order
dismissing the tribe’s lawsuit
that the tribe resolved its own
allegations in its response to
Lutze’s cease and desist letter.

ecution of the tribe’s police
officers “violates federal common law and directly interferes

authority to maintain a police
department and protect public
safety on its Reservation.”

cer authority on or off the
Reservation,’” according to the
order. “Further, the Tribe
‘directed (its officers) to ensure
that the matters outlined (in
the Cease and Desist letter) are
addressed.’”
Because the tribe didn’t
show the “immediacy and real-
ity” of a “substantial controversy between the parties,”
which would have been
required for Burrell to rule on
the case, the judge dismissed
it, according to court documents.
Hardy has said, “The District
Attorney’s Office reviewed the
investigation reports with the
same degree of scrutiny that it
would apply to any case submitted to it, and determined
that sufficient legal cause
existed to file the case and to
proceed in court. Mr. Johnson
is, of course, presumed innocent until proven guilty in a
court of law.”
Hardy has said the issue is
not one of tribal sovereignty.
“As we all know from recent
events around our nation, no
one, including peace officers
employed by federal, state and
local agencies, are immune
from investigation and prosecution of alleged criminal acts,”
Hardy said. “The charges
against Mr. Johnson will proceed in court and he will receive
all of the protections accorded
to anyone charged with a
crime.”
Meanwhile, Johnson is set
to appear in court on Aug. 10
in Bishop.

Gun control laws won’t change human behavior
By Harry Hurdle
(The following op-ed is
being reprinted from
Tuesday’s edition, where in
the managing editor’s
absence it ran with the
wrong headline. That headline implied that the opinion was somehow attributable to the Owens Valley
Committee. Mr. Hurdle is
not, nor has he ever been,
affiliated with the Owens
Valley Committee. Our
apologies to both Mr.
Hurdle and the Owens
Valley Committee. –Ed.)
Recently the president of
the United States said that
the biggest thing while in
office that he was disappointed in was that he could
not bring about common
sense gun control laws.
With the economy, ISIS,
terrorism, the falling image
of America, he is most disappointed in failing to pass
more gun control laws?
When you consider all of the
gun laws set forth by the
federal government, the
individual states, all of the
counties, cities, towns and
townships across America, it
is estimated that there are
more than 23,000 gun laws.
How many do we need?
Would 40,000 laws stop gun
violence? How about
50,000? What is wrong here?
First off I’m going to spell
out two concepts that gun
control advocates absolutely
cannot accept or comprehend. No. 1: Criminals do
not obey the laws. No. 2:
Good peaceful law-abiding

citizens must be allowed to
have guns because evil, bad
scum bags have guns.
Remember, when seconds
count law enforcement is
just minutes away! Why do
we want to disarm the good
guys and give the force factor to the bad guys?
Theories and agendas
abound on that one. What
really lies behind gun violence and why won’t politicians face up to the root
cause? The reason why they
won’t is because it’s not the
quick fix. The quick fix –
passing more laws or banning something says, “See?
We are fixing the problem.”
Doesn’t matter if it really
fixes anything or not, it just
creates the illusion that
something positive is being
done. Guns have always
been in America as part of
our culture. The pilgrims
had guns, the early colonist
revolutionaries had guns,
there were guns in America
when I was born in 1932.
While I was growing up
there was no such thing as
school shootings, movie theater shootings, drive-by
shootings or citizens using
guns to solve problems.
Guns have always been here,
so what has changed?
What has changed is
human behavior – that’s
what! The causes are many,
such as the deterioration of
the family unit, the lack of a
strong moral foundation
while growing up, large corporations like Time Warner
that denounce guns but promote gun violence through
video games, cop killer CDs,
etc. Because the motivating
force is money. If you want
to know in a lot of cases
where the problem is, follow
the money trail.
Our schools and many
parents are just not doing
now what was being done
before all this started. In our
free society, in my opinion,
the gun violence will not
stop until there is a change
in human behavior brought
about by a return to what
made America great – its
people or by brute force
wherein the people say
enough is enough and arm
themselves to defend their
lives, their loved ones and
their property.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

I must respond to the letter that
appeared in Thursday, July 30 issue
of The Inyo Register (“Omaba playing an ‘unprecedented’ blame
game”).
Firstly, if you want to talk narcissism, does the name Donald
Trump ring a bell? But, that aside,
we all know that President Obama
is to blame for just about everything from the sun coming up in
the east to the drought in California
and the Iraqi war where over 4,500
military personnel lost their lives.
Oops – the responsibility for that
war lies with President George W.
and Dick Cheney – key word here
being “lie.” But besides all this, I am
outraged. Nay, dare I say shocked
to learn that Mr. Obama put his feet
on the desk in the oval office. Tsk.
tsk. There ought to be a law. Perhaps
we could ask someone to put a sign
in the oval office saying “no feet on
the desk.” After all, Mr. Obama,
who do you think you are – the
President? Does anyone remember
JFK Jr. crawling around under the
presidential desk? What a shameful
disregard for decorum that was.
What is this world coming to, I
ask.

Progressives need
to stop blaming
President Bush
Progressives have a tiresome
habit of castigating Bush No. 43 for
all of the structural problems affecting the “self-described” U.S.A.
It’s just like people who still
blame Regan for all the sad people
on the streets supposedly kicked
out of caring treatment.
Truthfully the 3/5 compromise
measuring the value of a black versus a white was the brainchild of
the Northeast states in 1787, not
the South. Just as Manzanar was a
Roosevelt/Warren act.
Blame somebody else.

more accessible. Now, in partnership with officials from Hillsborough
County, Fla. and Cook County, Ill.,
they will help design an online
clearinghouse of tested resources
and communication tools that any
county elections official can put to
use. Increasing transparency and
voter participation can only be a
good thing, and we look forward to
seeing the final product.
Again, congratulations to Ms.
Foote and Mr. Carunchio, and to the
Inyo County Board of Supervisors
for fostering this kind of expertise
and leadership.

Housing project
comes with farreaching impacts
The City of Bishop City Council
is in the process of holding Public
Hearings on the proposed Kingston
Subdivision (Tentative Tract Map
No. 250). This project entails shutting down the Bishop Nursery at
789 Home St. and building 15
homes on the 2.75 acre parcel. The
Council is currently considering the
Draft Mitigated Negative Declaration.
Review of this document is an eyeopener.
The Negative Declaration discusses cutting down over half of
the mature trees on the property.
This has the potential to severely
impact the ecosystem and the
plants and animals that depend on
this habitat as well as impacting the
surrounding residential neighborhood.
The Negative Declaration also
provides for eight variances to the
Bishop Municipal Code and Mobility
Element for construction of the
access road. Close examination of
the site plan and the variances can
only lead to one conclusion. The
City is willing to deviate from its
own General Plan and Municipal
Code to accommodate the wishes
of the developer. If you put more
houses into an area you can expect
a larger profit. This would make the
developer happy.
This project and its implications
are far-reaching and should be of
concern to members of this community. It is not necessary for the
city to compromise the General
Plan and the pursuit of a proper
development strategy.
This is a complicated issue with
many facets needing review. It cannot be properly addressed in its
entirety on the editorial page. I
encourage all interested parties to
attend the Public Hearing in the
City Council chambers on Monday,
Aug. 10, 2015 at 6 p.m.

IN APPRECIATION
Reader grateful
to veteran and
reporter for
sharing story
Regarding “World War II vet
recalls battle at sea,” The Inyo
Register, Saturday, July 25, 2015:
This article about the experiences of Mr. Leonard Schlick, written by
Louis Israel, was exceptionally well
done.
It is always humbling yet uplifting to hear the stories of these men
who accomplished feats that are
just unimaginable to those of us
who were protected from harm,
safe in these United States. I was
just learning to walk and talk when
this battle occurred and was oblivious to the world outside my parents’ modest home.
Quite a few of my friends and
classmates who were born the same
year never got to meet their
fathers because they did not return
from this war. Thank you, Mr. Schlick for sharing your experiences. You need to
know how much people care about
you and all the others who went
through what you did. And it was
certainly a pleasure to read about
the interesting life you lead after
the war.
And thank you, Mr. Israel, for
learning how to properly use the
English language in the form of
spelling and punctuation. But
your gift for combining the information with the skill of an excellent
writer made such a huge difference. I hope you will consider interviewing and writing other stories of
this generation of veterans while we
still have some of them.
Sincerely,
Earlene Smith
San Gabriel
Thanks for another
successful Kids
Fishing Festival
I would like to give a big shout
out of thanks to all the wonderful
volunteers who travel from all over
the state to help with the Kids
Fishing Festival. It was the perfect
Saturday, the weather was gorgeous
and Mammoth Mountain as a backdrop was stunning.
We had a some bomber trout this
year; the biggest caught was
7pounds! It is so adorable to see a
little kid holding up a 4- to 6-pound
fish. The fish were donated by
Desert Springs Trout Farm who is
supplying all our beautiful trophy
trout to the Eastern Sierra. More
thanks to the TOML for their additional fish stocking.
This event, now in its 28th year,
is run by volunteers from Aguabonita
Fly Fishing Group out of Ridgecrest,
and receives support from the many
educational programs from the
California Department of Fish and
Wildlife (did you notice the new
Game
Warden’s
Recruitment
Trailer?), and free coffee and donuts
from Mammoth’s Lions Club. The
U.S. Forest Service sent over Smokey
Bear along with his helpers. Fishing
guides to help the kids came from
Berkley who also supplied the
PowerBait, plus local fishing guides
gave up a day of guiding to help
also. Mammoth’s fire department
sent their old fire truck and promoted the Fireman’s Picnic the next
day.
Special thanks to John Morris for
mucking out the ponds (they have
never looked so good and this is a
drought year) and to SnowCreek
Resort for letting us use the grounds.
The T-shirt painting booth was
staffed by volunteers and the paint
supplied by Mono Council for the
Arts. The kids were able to take
home dinner that night because of
fish cleaning from All Phase Home
Repair, John Eastman and Angelo’s
Stove Service. Cocos Locos donated
lunch for the volunteers. And the
fish kept biting all day thanks to
Rock Creek Lakes Resort icing the
ponds that morning.
Lastly, thanks to Mono County
Fisheries Commission and to our
new sponsor, Friends of Rollo, who
really helped us produce this amazing event by their generous financial contributions. It’s a team effort
that has really helped get kids
“hooked” on fishing. Many thanks
to all of you.

walking
ers such as Mike Prather of
Lone Pine and Janet and David
Carle of Lee Vining, to wellknown Los Angeles water/
environmental activists such
as Andy Lipkis, founder of
Tree People, to international
water activists such as
Rajendra Singh of India, known
as the “waterman of India,”
and recipient of the Stockholm
Prize for Water, also known as
the Nobel Prize for Water. (See
below for a complete list of
local Walking Water participants.)
After this first phase of the
project, over the next two
years Walking Water walkers
will eventually walk all the
way into Los Angeles.
“Walking Water is not a
demonstration, it is not a
march against something,
instead it is a celebration of
the possibilities we have when
we come together,” organizer
Kate Bunney said. “Walking
Water asks us to think together, feel together, work together, resolve together, create
together and walk together.
Walking Water refuses to be
enemies, to judge or to take
sides. Instead it chooses to
create space where everyone
involved (who) is trying to deal
with the situation that has
been handed to them can
share their vision, their
dreams, their story, as well as
their pain and grievances.”
Bunney, who is from the
United Kingdom, hit on the
idea for Walking Water in 2012
after attending a workshop
for community leaders led by
Gigi Coyle of Big Pine.
Bunney, of course, also had
walked into the middle of
California’s iconic and contentious water stories: how water
from the Owens Valley contributed to the urbanization of
Los Angeles and the current
spate of negative environmental impacts in both locations.
The ongoing, four-year
drought has focused attention
on the full gamut of water
issues, from water supplies, to
usage patterns of large and
small water users, to personal
efforts to conserve water and
other resources, she added.
With the drought as a backdrop, Walking Water organizers hope the sight of a group
of diverse individuals moving
through the Eastern Sierra will
bring attention to both the
region’s history of providing
water for a thirsty Southern
California and how to better
use that resource in the
future.
“Walking Water intends to
attract the interest, and open
the hearts of people who live
in Southern California, to further move and inspire them to
understand the impacts of
their personal lifestyles on
other people and the ecosystem, and motivate and equip
them to make effective changes in those lifestyles that can
reduce the amount of water
Chris Langley,
Kathy Bancroft,
David and Janet Carle,
Walking Water participants
they use, waste and pollute,”
Bunney said.
The walkers expect to have
a unique experience as they
travel though the Eastern
Sierra on foot. “Each walker
will bring their own intention
and meaning to the walk,”
Bunney said. The group
includes seasoned activists
and educators who have been
working on water and other
resource issues for decades
and people just beginning on
the path of activism and
action. The international
nature of the group and members’ common interest in
water issues and solutions to
water-related problems around
the world should create opportunities to share experiences
and knowledge, she added.
Walking Water is somewhat
similar to 100 Mules Walking
the Los Angeles Aqueduct, an
artist’s action by Loren Bon
and the Metabolic Studio. That
effort used the 100-mule caravan and attendant riders and
wranglers traveling from the
Owens Valley to Los Angles to
bring attention to the Los
Angeles Aqueduct in 2013,
the 100th anniversary of the
opening of the aqueduct.
The budget for Walking
Water is about $100,000 for
the leg from Mono Lake to
Owens Lake. Each walker
secures their own funding
based on how long they will
walk during the event, with
$2,000 fully funding a walk-
er’s three-week journey.
Donations and grants also will
be used to offset costs, Bunney
said. The Ojai Foundation and
the Wild Foundation are assisting as fiscal facilitators.
Information on how to donate
or contribute can be found on
www.walking-water.org.
The local walkers preparing for the trip through the
Owens Valley are: Kathy
Bancroft, the Tribal Historic
Preservation officer of the
Lone Pine Paiute-Shoshone
Tribe; Coyle, a community
facilitator and outdoor educator; Chris Langley of Lone Pine,
a retired teacher and currently
the Inyo County Film commissioner, president of the Inyo
County Board of Education
and author; Alan Bacock, coordinator of the Big Pine PaiuteShoshone Tribe Water Program
and manager of the tribe’s
sustainable food project;
Prather, a retired teacher who
has been an advocate for wildlife and the environment in
the Owens Valley and on
Owens Lake for decades; and
the Carles, who worked as
state park rangers at Mono
Lake for 20 years, while David
wrote 15 books, including
“Water and the California
Dream.”
Other walkers hail from
California and United States,
India, Portugal, Germany,
Spain, the Congo, Bolivia, the
United Kingdom and South
Africa.
fire
west of the fire and tied that trail system into
the Soda Fire (2014) burn scar to the south.
These will be used as contingency lines to keep
the fire within the Golden Trout Wilderness.
The weather Wednesday morning offered
fire officials the opportunity to take a more
direct approach to halt the fires spread towards
the southwest. Consistent with the direction
provided in the Wilderness Act of 1964, firefighters will use Minimum Impact Suppression
Tactics. This action should limit the spread of
the fire by tying the existing fire perimeter into
natural barriers such as rock outcroppings,
open areas of sparse fuels, and water courses.
Contingency planning is being finalized for
structure defense and resident evacuations if
communities near the perimeter become threatened. Tulare County Fire and Sheriff departments, California Department of Forestry and
Fire Protection and the Forest Service are participating in the contingency planning efforts.
Contingency planning remains ongoing to
address structure defense and resident evacuations if communities near the perimeter become
threatened.
A portion of the Golden Trout Wilderness is
closed.
Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks
remains fully open with no closures.

Store saddles up with Chamber
Sierra Saddlery in Bishop – home of the famous red horse
standing guard over U.S. Highway 395 at the south end of town
– recently became one of the newest members of the Bishop
Area Chamber of Commerce. The store is popular for its oldtime mercantile feel and inventory, offering an array of products
from feed and tack to camping supplies and RV parts to clothes
and jewelry. The store is also family owned and operated; it’s
said customers are bound to encounter someone from any of
the four generations of the Allen family at any time. Shown here
commemorating Sierra Saddlery’s new Chamber membership
are the Allens – Tim, Connor, Matt, Kathy, Clayton, Tammy,
Mike and George – and Chamber representatives Cheryl
Underhill, April Leeson, Tawni Thomson and Sally Symons.
Get the news. Get the story.
The Inyo Register
Veterans and their families
in Inyo and Mono counties are
invited to Bishop City Hall for
a presentation on Veterans
Administration health care
tomorrow, Aug. 7.
The second annual visit,
scheduled for 9:30 a.m.-3 p.m.
will be sponsored by Veterans
Helping Veterans, along with
the community’s help. This
outreach from the VA Health
Care System will bring staff
from various departments to
one single event in order to
help veterans and their families, and make accessing information easier.
Representatives of Veterans
Helping Veterans will present
ways the organization gives
outreach for veterans in the
Eastern Sierra as well as reviewing calendar events for the
year.
The review of the Choice
Program will be a top priority
in making sure veterans understand how it works. “The ability for veterans to gain medical
help in local communities is a
great improvement for our
vets,” a spokesperson said.
Other topics of discussion
will be non-VA care, travel pay,
new enrollments and registration for “My Healthy Vet,”
along with other subjects.
Veterans Helping Veterans
would like community members to reach out to friends
and families or veterans to
remind them of helpful presentation. “As much as we are
working to notify on radio,
newspapers, fliers and face to
face visits, many veterans may
not see these notifications,” a
spokesperson said.
Those planning to attend
are asked to RSVP to icvso@
inyocounty.us or (760) 8737850.

Teen gets stuck with entire bill for graduation party
Dear Annie: I had my
high school graduation party
at a local restaurant (because
our house is too small). My
father claimed he was unable
to pay for it, and insisted I
cover the bill, close to $1,100,
saying he will pay me back
later.
I realize that my parents’
business sometimes goes
through hard times, but Dad
still manages to eat out frequently. He’s terrible with
money, and I am not sure he
will ever pay me back. I told
him that I expect complete
repayment by the middle of
August and if I don’t get it,
I’ll start selling his vast collection of unused musical
instruments. He doesn’t
believe me.
I am paying for my first
year of college through
grants, scholarships, my savings and the money I earn
from my job. I never expected anything from my parents because I know they
can’t afford much. But I had
no idea I was going to get
stuck with the bill for the
party. What do I do?
– Farmer’s Daughter
Dear Daughter: Let’s not
turn this into a major conflagration. Dad should not have
stuck you with a bill for a
party neither of you could
afford. But selling his musical instruments isn’t the
answer, either. Try to remain
calm and work out a payment plan with Dad, in writing, with the amount he
needs to pay each week until
an agreed-upon total is
reached. It may take longer
than mid-August, and you
might also consider paying
for part of the bill because
the party was for you. But
it’s better than the all-out
war you are contemplating.
We also suggest you involve
your mother in this transac-

benefits that it almost seems like a
selfish act.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It’s
not a competition. That’s what you
keep telling yourself, while another
part of your brain counters: Then why
does it feel like a competition? Either
way, you won’t be able to stop yourself from winning.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). It
takes a lot of brainpower to comprehend nature, and the smartest people
wonder whether it’s even worth thinking about. The body has intelligence
far beyond what the mind can grasp.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It’s the
heightened circumstances that make
life stressful – the changes in relationships, jobs, health, location, etc. that
bring a curious mix of chemicals to
your blood. You can handle it. Give
yourself permission to relax.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Does life inflict the same harsh reality
on pessimists as it does on optimists?
The law of averages would suggest it;
whereas, the law of attraction – you
get what you focus on – suggests
otherwise.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Action can be impeded, but not intention or disposition. In other words, you
can stop a person from doing wrong,
but you can’t change the desire or the
Holiday Mathis
attitude that goes along with it.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
There is always another route to get
where you need to go. Seek new
direction; find adventure. Once again,
you’ll know what it feels like to be the
most interesting person in the room.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). The thing you dread – it’s not so
bad. So go on and get face to face
with it. Put your hands in and get a
little bit dirty. This will be over soon
enough, but only because you were
willing to deal with it.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Here’s something you should know:
Your magical thinking is a kind of
threat to someone who thinks differently. And when your ideas work out
brilliantly, try not to rub it in.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
In your current mood, it’s hard for you
to like things – you love them instead.
Therefore, be stingy with your promises. Your enthusiasm could have you
committing more than you’ll be willing
to deliver later.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Your mind will be whirring, even when
you’re asleep. The best idea will be
the new one you come up with now.
Don’t be surprised if it’s the only one
on the table.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Aug. 6).
Over the next six weeks, when you
decide to do something, it’s as good
as done. That’s why it will be wise to
take your time with decisions, test
them and gather opinions from experienced folks. Your well-executed plan
pays thousands in September.
November heats up your love life.
Capricorn and Scorpio people adore
you. Your lucky numbers are: 10, 4,
15, 7 and 39.
WEEKEND LOVE FORECAST:
ARIES: After you converse to sort
out your differences, you’ll like each
other even more than you did before.
TAURUS: You want to raise the
mood of the room, and you will –
consciously, and with great effort, but
you will. GEMINI: Your love can be
trusted. CANCER: Your heart is elastic. There is plenty of room for someone new. LEO: Maybe love really is a
battlefield, but you have no desire to
fight. Maybe it’s time to seek a more
agreeable partner. VIRGO: It’s a busy
weekend, but in that rare moment
when you find yourself alone, you’ll
be excellent company to yourself.
LIBRA: What you consider to be
courage is more of a lifestyle for
someone else. SCORPIO: Someone
craves your touch. Do you know who
it is? It’s not the person you’re thinking
of. SAGITTARIUS: When you’re having more fun, relationships naturally
improve. CAPRICORN: You’ll contribute to the peace and order of the
universe by delivering on all promises
on time. AQUARIUS: The weekend
will be rich in simple pleasures and
heartwarming gestures. PISCES: Stick
by those who praise what is good and
seek out what is beautiful.
COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND:
The Gemini moon and the Leo sun
spark lively conversation and irresistible attraction between these two
signs. Gemini brings the wit; Leo
brings imagination and a flair for
drama. Their love affair is fascinating
to the casual observer, and these two
will be a fast favorite among other
couples, as they are an endlessly
entertaining duo. Hopefully they won’t
forget to share the spotlight.

You and your husband

Dear Annie: My husband’s parents live several
states away. They are both in
poor health, one worse than
the other. I fear that when
one passes away, my husband will want us to move
and take care of the other
one.
We have two young children and this would involve
us leaving our jobs. When we
visit, I am miserable the
entire time and have no
desire to move. We could not
ask the remaining parent to
move, either, because they
both have jobs, as well.
Our marriage is struggling
right now, so living in separate states would not help us
repair our problems. And
then there’s the fact that I
would want my husband to
do this for my parents. So
how can I deny him this?

care of one set of parents
means a willingness to take

Preparing for back to
school athletics
It’s crunch time for paperwork,
physicals and practice for
scholar-athletes
Beatty with a 6 p.m. game on Sept. 4. Having all paperwork completed is necessary in order to practice or play
volleyball.
Register Staff
With games beginning in less than a month, some tryouts and practices are already underway. Students must
turn in athletic forms even to participate in practice – so
put the ice cream down, get out of the pool and grab a
pen! Keep watching this space for practices, meetings and
coaches’ updates. Here are some upcoming sports dates:
Big Pine Football
Big Pine Warriors football practice begins on Monday,
Aug. 10. Forms were mailed out six weeks ago, but those
who need another packet can get one at the school office.
The Warriors season begins on the road at 3:30 p.m. on
Friday, Sept. 4 with a non-league road game against Beatty
(this is CORRECTED information - last week the Register
listed Sept. 11 at Pyramid Lake as the season opener
which was incorrect- apologies). In order to play in a football game, players must have participated in 10 practices
– so getting physicals and paperwork in now is strongly
urged by the Big Pine Athletic Department.
Big Pine Volleyball
Big Pine Warriors Volleyball practice begins Monday,
Aug. 17. The Warriors Volleyball season also begins at
Bishop Tennis
Some meeting and schedule times and dates have been
changed since the meeting where schedules were handed
out. Coach Cummings requests players note this new
updated information. It is important that all sessions/
try-outs be attended as cuts may have to be made.
Updated sessions as of July 30 are as follows:
Monday, Aug. 10, 8:30-10:00 a.m.
Wednesday, Aug. 12, 5-6:30 p.m.
Monday, Aug. 17, 5-6:30 p.m.
Tuesday, Aug. 18, 5-6:30 p.m.
Wednesday, Aug. 19, 5-6:30 p.m.
Thursday, Aug. 20, 4-5:30 p.m.
Parent meeting is currently scheduled for 6:30 p.m.,
Wednesday, Aug. 19. Players do not have to attend.
Lone Pine Volleyball
“Mel Week” begins on Monday, Aug, 17. Practice times
are from 5:30-6:45 a.m. and then again from 4-5:45 p.m.
each day through Aug. 21. Coach Joseph sends a reminder that all players must have a physical exam completed
prior to practicing. For additional information, contact
Coach Joseph at (760) 382-0406.
Julian Sanchez from Murrieta had this week’s Convict Lake catch of

Fly fishing for dinner
Every group has its stereotype. For fly fishermen it’s
catch and release. Fanatics
release every thing they catch.
The rest of us release most,
but enjoy the occasional fish
dinner.
I love eating fish. Fresh
caught fish is as good as it
gets. The best salmon I ever
ate came from the mouth of
the Klamath River. From the
time the fish was caught to
the time it was served was
less then an hour. The flavor
of anything that fresh is hard
to explain if you have not
experienced it for your self.
Growing up in my family
meant fishing trips to Sierra
streams to catch trout. In
those days catch and release
was in infancy. The motto in
my family was you ate what
you caught. The limit was 10
trout with 20 in possession.
We frequently came home
with 40 to 60 trout. That’s a
lot of trout.
We threw fish frys for the
neighbors. As a kid these
were great gatherings of my
friends and their parents. The
trout were fried with a coating of cornmeal. I remember
my mother making mustardbased tartar sauce that I
applied generously to the
trout. These are the pleasant
thoughts of my child hood.
Fred Rowe
Columnist
Today I’ve lost my taste
for trout. I feel fishing is a
killing sport and I make sure
that I eat trout at least once a
year. Most of the time it’s
smoked. This is the one cooking method I love for any
fish, particularly trout and
salmon.
I fished for salmon last
fall, the first time in 33 years,
on the Sacramento River
above Red Bluff. I was lucky
enough to land a couple of
nice 12- to 15-pound kings. I
filleted them and smoked
them in my new smoker; my
old one died after 35 years of
service. Smoked salmon,
crackers and beer make for
one of the best streamside
meals.
Don’t toss ’em! Recycle ’em!
The Inyo Register
I like to eat. I learned to
cook at an early age. I figured
if I knew how to cook I would
never be hungry. One of my
passions today is cooking
Mexican food like tacos,
enchiladas, burritos, and chili
verde.
Summer time is a perfect
time for making fish tacos.
The classic is made with deep
fried battered fish. Though
these are great, I like grilled
fish tacos. Sacramento perch
found in Crowley Lake and
Pleasant Valley Reservoir are
a great local fish for making
fish tacos.
For my grilled fish tacos I
marinate perch filets for 30
minutes to an hour. I grill the
filets on a gas barbeque set
on high that I wipe down with
oil before grilling. This guarantees the perch filets will
not stick to the grill. I cook
them for five to seven minutes on each side. I make a
mango salsa to go on top of
my fish tacos.
To assemble the tacos I
flake the perch filets and
place some of the fish in a
steamed corn tortilla with
mango salsa on top. Two or
three of these fish tacos with
lime rice pilaf, and red onion
pasilla pepper black beans
and you have a great summer
meal that is healthy. For me a
margarita is the perfect
accompaniment.
In most circumstances the
fly rod is the most productive
method for catching fish. For
me it’s easy to land more fish
then I can eat in a trip to the
water. Keeping a few fish for
a meal is a great way to end a
fishing trip.
Marinade for fish tacos:
¼ cup of vegetable oil
¼ cup of tequila
2 tablespoon of soy sauce
1
tablespoon
of
Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon of garlic powder
¼ teaspoon of cumin
Mix all ingredients in a zip
lock plastic bag. Add fish and
refrigerate for 30 minutes to 2
hours. Mild fish like perch marinate for shorter times then
stronger fish like salmon.
Mango Salsa:
2 to three ripe mangos cut
into ¼ inch dice
1 small red onion cut into ¼
inch dice
1 to 2 garlic cloves finely
minced
¼ cup roughly chopped
cilantro
Juice of half a lime
Combine all ingredients.
Serve at room temperature.
Chill for an hour to make a
great salsa for eating with
chips.

Mother Nature sure isn’t
done with her fun and games.
Once again, another drink for
the trees although some lightning did take one of the trees at
the back of the lake on Saturday
afternoon. Quite a few fires
started by lightning strikes over
the weekend – brought a bit of
smoke to the lake on Monday
morning, but a slight south
breeze has pushed that smoke
right out of here, and it snowed
on the Whites on Aug. 1. Most
of the fires started by lightning
were either put out by CalFire,
U.S. Forest Service or Mother
Nature’s soothing rain.
Catching is still iffy – some
fishermen doing great others
not so great. The fish seem to
have gone deep. Fish the Inlets
with PowerBait, nightcrawlers
or jigs (like a Sierra Slammer).
Troll deep with lures with a bit
of red on them (like the red
and gold Thomas Buoyant) or
flashers (like a Dave Davis) and
a nightcrawler. Fish from shore
with PowerBait, nightcrawlers
or just toss a Lure. We got fish
on Wednesday from the
Department of Fish and Wildlife.
Don’t forget FREE fishing day
on Saturday, Sept. 5.
Had another Desert Spring
Trout Farm fish come out –
Matthew Kanamori landed a
nice 5-pounder on rainbow
PowerBait while the rest of the
family brought home limits with
nightcrawlers. Steve Aytayan
caught a respectable 3-3/4
pounder. using salmon egg
PowerBait. Nick Lawrence used
a Sierra Slammer jig to bring in
a 3-1/4 pounder. Limits were
nabbed by Robert and Ryan
Robar using PowerBait and garlic salmon eggs.

here but we still had some
quality fish caught this week.
Go deep!
Catch of the Week: Julian
Sanchez from Murrieta with a
stout 8-lb., 2-oz. rainbow. He
was using nightcrawlers and
was fishing at the North Shore.
Great job, Julian!
Tactics/Bait: In the creek,
salmon eggs and small spinners are your best bet. In the
lake, fish with Inflated nightcrawlers and spoon lures like a
Thomas Buoyants. For trolling
try Bikini Pearl, Rainbow or Red
Dot Frog Needlefish. The top
PowerBait colors this week
were green and yellow. There
wasn’t really any one top spot
on the lake this week. Try the
usual locations: Inlet, Jetty area,
North Shore, South Shore, the

Anglers on boats were having
more luck when compared to
the shore.

Ronda Rousey needs
Blue Jays land big
names before deadline some real competition
Every year at the end of
July, Major League Baseball
imposes a trade deadline for
all non-waiver roster players.
This year was no different
than in years past when big
name, high salary players
are moved from out of contention teams to clubs vying
for a playoff spot. Normally,
if a player is to become a
free agent at the end of the
season, and is usually paid a
giant salary, teams will trade
that player before the July
31 trade deadline for future
considerations or lower salaried players.
This year one of the
teams to go out and spend
lots of money on hopes of
winning the American
League East is the Toronto
Blue Jays. Playing at a .500
clip for the first 100 games
of the season and trailing
the New York Yankees, the
Blue Jays went out and
beefed up their offense by
adding life-long Colorado
Rocky Troy Tulowitzki. The
Blue Jays in turn sent shortstop Jose Reyes, pitcher
Miguel Castro and two
minor league prospects to
the Rockies. The Blue Jays
also received veteran relief
pitcher LaTroy Hawkins in
the deal.
Some were perplexed by
the trade because Toronto’s
offense was producing big
stats while there pitching
wasn’t performing well. Even
Tulowitzki said numerous
times how “blindsided” he
was by the trade from the
team he had played his
entire career for since 2006.
In his first game wearing a
Toronto Blue Jays uniform,
Tulowitzki did not disap-
Craig Jackson
sports Columnist
point the hometown fans at
Toronto’s Rogers Centre.
Although striking out in his
first at bat for the Blue Jays,
Tulowitzki homered his next
time at the plate and then
added a double in the Blue
Jays 8-2 victory over the
Philadelphia Phillies.
Besides landing all-star
Troy Tulowitzki, the Blue
Jays also acquired left-handed all-star pitcher David
Price from the Detroit
Tigers. This second blockbuster trade by the Blue Jays
helped secure a pitching
staff under-performing to
this point in the season and
also seeking their first playoff spot since 1993, the longest drought in baseball.
The Blue Jays sent lefthanders Jairo Labout, Daniel
Morris and Matt Boyd to the
Tigers in exchange for David
Price. “They’ve got a good
thing going on right now in
Toronto,” Price said after
hearing about the trade.
“They’ve kind of been in this
situation before and didn’t
make these types of moves.
It definitely shows you that
they want to win right now.
You have to respect that.
You have to like it and that’s
what you want to be part
of,” Price concluded.
In another major trade
before the deadline, the
Philadelphia Phillies sent
long-time pitcher Cole
Hamels to the Texas
Rangers. Coveted by many
contending teams and having thrown a no-hitter
recently, Hamels was traded
to the third place Texas
Rangers in exchange for lefthanded pitcher Matt
Harrison and five minorleaguers.
Hamels had been mentioned in trade rumors
many times over the last few
years and was reported to
be going to the Dodgers,
Astros, Cubs and Giants just
before the trade deadline. In
his last start for the Phillies,
Hamels threw a no-hitter
against the Cubs, the first
time Chicago had been nohit since 1965.
In his 10 seasons with the
Phillies, Hamels was 114-90
with a 3.30 ERA, 1,844
strikeouts and 492 walks
over 1,930 innings. He
brings quality left-handed
pitching to the Rangers –
but will it be enough to propel them into a playoff spot?

of female MMA fighting rests
entirely on Rousey, and it is
going to lose its steam unless
her fights bring some new pizzazz.
What she’s done has been
impressive until now. Who’d
have believed you could walk
into a Buffalo Wild Wings and
hear sports fans talking about a
female MMA fighter for her genuine skills and not her looks? Or
describing her punches without
accentuating the description
with the “B” word?
But after these last three
fights, we’re coming back
around full circle into “who
cares?” territory. There’s no
competition. When the next
fighter starts taunting Rousey
and calling her names and saying what she’s going to do to her
in the ring, it won’t be enough.
No one will care. Rousey’s
already too proven to get hearts
racing.
When Mike Tyson was punching people’s lights out the expectations were the same, but the
excitement level was different
because it was still for the
Heavyweight Champion of the
World. If someone can knock
out the best in the world with
ease, well, that’s worth tuning in
to see even if it’s less than a full
round.
But with Rousey, the pool is
UFC fighters, and they just don’t
appear to be world class. She’s
the best female fighter I’ve ever
seen, no question about it, but
I’m not sure we’ve seen all there
is to see. Women engaging in
mixed martial arts fighting professionally is relatively new.
Congratulations to Rousey for
putting it on the map. Now it’s
time to explore it. Search the
world. Where’s the 300-pound
Sumo who can punch? Where’s
the rogue Mossad agent training
in moves to submit and kill
since her early teen years? Heck,
where’s Leila Ali? Don’t wheel
out another 133-pound fighter
with a scary sneer and a bunch
of degrading insults. I’m not
buying it anymore. No one is.
And there’s not going to be a
Buster Douglas. Stop messing
around. Put her in the ring with
a world-class giant and see what
she’s got.
I might sound like a doubter
– and I am – but I like Rousey,
and that’s why I want to see it. I
want to know if she’s the best
female fighter on earth. I don’t
believe she is, but I can’t tell and
the UFC doesn’t have the beef to
prove otherwise.
It’s getting stupid. Match her
up with someone who can at
least get her a little bloody even
if she wins. At this point the
staged fight scenes she has in
“Expendables” and “Fast and
Furious” movies aren’t just better fights, they last twice as long,
and cost 1/5 of the price to see.

Rockaway Beach, N.Y. and

sports scene with a passion.)
A Sporting View
As of Aug. 5
NATIONAL LEAGUE
Good thing for undercards,
because Ronda Rousey’s fights
are getting silly. Well, silly for
anyone who paid $49.99 to see
this last fight. It wasn’t silly for
her opponent, Bethe Correia,
who got knocked out in 34 seconds.
Solid knockout too. No arm
bar, no submission headlock.
Just straight up punches. Maybe
10 or 12 of them right on
Correia’s face and that’s all she
wrote.
Rousey’s last three fights
lasted 34, 14 and 16 seconds,
respectively. Great for her and
all, and if people keep paying, I
don’t begrudge her or UFC the
money or the popularity. But it’s
become so routine that the
movie roles and Reebok
endorsements she’s taking on
are more interesting news stories at this point. Did anyone
really think she was going to
lose this last fight? Or any of
these fights?
There’s a built-in problem
now. The world of UFC women
is too small; with the competition they put up, it looks like
she barely even has to try. She
can have a fight, walk away completely untouched, film a few
scenes in the latest
“Expendables” movie, lie on a
beach for a month, and then
stroll into the next one. OK, she
must be training harder than
that, but if we’re not aware of it,
there’s no fun in it. Heck, HBO’s
24/7 is a series entirely devoted
to the months of training fighters put in before a fight. We all
know anticipation is usually better than the real thing, but anticipation doesn’t exist if we’re
absolutely sure the real thing is
going to be a nothing. Who
would tune in to follow someone
for months knowing it’s just
leading up to 20 seconds of
punches and another easy belt?

There was an old journalist I
used to run into at the
Greenwich Village Bistro who
looked every bit like an old journalist hanging around a
Greenwich Village restaurant
sounds like he would look, complete with crumpled felt fedora
and wide tie.
One day, I was reading one of
the tabloids, and I threw it aside
with disgust. There was no real
news on page one, and it had a
bunch of hypothetical trades on
the back. It was more about
what somebody said he would
do and a bunch of people reacting with disdain for the thing
that hadn’t happened.
“Hey,” I said, pointing to the
newspaper, “This is a very bad
newspaper.”
“No, it’s not,” he replied.
“That newspaper is great. You’re
missing the point.”
I realized that he had just
performed some sort of low-level Jedi mind trick on me, but I
didn’t care. Now I was free to
like that newspaper again.
Toward the end of July, with
the trade deadline approaching,
of course you’re going to hear
about potential trades. This is
one of the few times where
hypothetical trades are welcome
fodder for call-in radio shows,
but if there’s ever a waste of airwaves, it’s those pre-season callers who offer Didi Gregorius for
Mark Vasto
sports columnist
Mike Trout in a straight-up deal,
and anytime somebody uses
them to disparage another person for the crime of being from
someplace else they know little
or nothing about.
By now, most sports fans are
aware that Colin Cowherd was
fired by ESPN after making disparaging remarks about
Dominicans, not one day, but
two days in a row. This wasn’t a
situation where “political correctness” claimed another victim. This was ignorance on full
display.
The baseball gods conspired
to induct Pedro Martinez into
the Hall of Fame the same week
that Cowherd was fired. In a
world where “public speaking” is
considered one of the greatest
fears a person can face, Pedro
Martinez manages to speak
about baseball in a second language. Can you imagine being on
TV, in front of millions, in
another nation, using their language to provide in-depth analysis?
Martinez is a guy who grew
up in a tin-shack and worked as
a mechanic at an age most
American kids are in middle
school. He couldn’t afford a
baseball, so he played with
oranges. He grew up to be one
of the greatest right-handed
pitchers of all-time. Yes, really,
all-time. His numbers are incredible to behold. But perhaps the
greatest thing he ever did was
done off the mound, on the dais
at Cooperstown. There, the
Dominican with the great pitch,
reminded us yet again what
great people do: They deliver.
“When you see me, you can
see a sign of hope, of faith, of
determination, of strength, [and]
courage with dignity.”
No matter where you are
from, in a world of fallen heroes,
being able to point to yourself as
a good example is something
that is truly great. Some people
just miss the point.

The Year of D’Onofrio
San Diego-based Bluegrass band MohaviSoul – Mark Miller (guitar, lead vocals), Randy Hanson (mandolin, lead vocals), Jason Weiss (banjo, vocals), former Swall Meadows resident Orion Boucher (bass, vocals),
Will Jaffe (Dobro, vocals) and Dan Sankey (fiddle, vocals) – will take the Millpond main stage on Saturday.

Millpond Music Festival
lineup features a typical
mix of styles and genres
Special to The Inyo Register
As the clock ticks away to the 24th Annual
Millpond Music Festival, organizers at the Inyo
Council for the Arts have announced a fully
solidified lineup.
Slated for Sept. 18-20 at Millpond County
Park, the festival will feature entertainers from
all corners of the world performing a variety of
styles.
Following is a look at two of the bands
scheduled to appear:
MohaviSoul
MohaviSoul is a San Diego-based bluegrass
band, whose sound is at once both familiar and
progressive; steeped in tradition, yet constantly
pushing at its edges. Encouraged by a steady
resurgence of interest in acoustic music, Randy
Hanson and Mark Miller formed MohaviSoul in
2012 to create a new sound in Contemporary
Bluegrass and Americana. Since then MohaviSoul
has released two recordings which have
received local and national accolades: “Every
Second” (2013) and “Blue Diesel” (2014).
The award-winning group of musicians is
currently working on their third record featuring the instrumental and vocal prowess of the
six individually talented musicians who, when
joining forces, create the band’s soulful sound:
Mark Miller (guitar, lead vocals), Randy Hanson
(mandolin, lead vocals), Jason Weiss (banjo,
vocals), Orion Boucher (bass, vocals), Will Jaffe
(Dobro, vocals) and Dan Sankey (fiddle,
vocals).
During MohaviSoul’s recent appearance on
KSON’s Bluegrass Special, Wayne Rice proclaimed that what he loves about the band “is
not only the way they sound, but that they’re
just as comfortable playing at a bluegrass festival as they are in a rock club.” The group’s passion for live performance sets them apart. “The
thing I most value is the performance aspect of
music. If I couldn’t play in front of people I’d
probably quit writing songs altogether,” says
Miller. While the band does perform traditional
material and unique cover songs, their focus is
on original material that blends Miller’s West
Virginia roots with Randy’s fifth-generation
California musical heritage.
A portion of the band’s name pays homage
to the high and lonesome nature of the desert,
and MohaviSoul has a special link with the
Eastern Sierra and the Millpond festival in their
bassist Boucher, a former resident of Swall
Meadows and lifelong Millpond attendee.
MohaviSoul will be playing a main stage set on
Saturday as well as hosting a songwriting workshop Saturday afternoon.
AJ Ghent
AJ Ghent was born in Fort Pierce, Fla. to a
family rich in musical history. “Everything in
our house was music,” Ghent recalls of his
upbringing. While still young, Ghent discovered
the lap steel guitar himself. “Witnessing my
father and grandfather play in church and perform gospel music inspired me, and the freedom of the instrument put me somewhere I
had never been.”
Ready to take on the world as a professional
musician, Ghent left his hometown and dove
headfirst into the music scene of West Palm

“Guardians of the Galaxy”
adventures and don’t want
to pick up a comic book?
Try watching the new animated series debuting on
Disney XD this September
officially branded as
Marvel’s “Guardians of the
Galaxy.” Don’t get too excited; none of the movie actors
will be appearing on the
show. Still interested? Me,
too.
This new series will focus
on the Guardians as they try
to fight off various nefarious characters as they all
race to a mysterious artifact
called the Cosmic Seed,
which is tied into Star-Lord
in some way and has the
ability to create a new universe. Disney XD has
released a trailer and a couple of clips. Most of the
visuals are based on the
film, so no surprises there.
Also familiar is the use of
Blue Suede’s “Hooked on a
Feeling.”
What’s different is that in
this medium, the showrunners aren’t limited by budgets and schedules. The
brief footage has included
more species of aliens than
the entire feature film did.
There will be some focus on
Peter Quill as a child right
after he is abducted from
Earth by Yondu. The continued flashback possibilities
are endless, and I, for one,
am excited to explore this
time in young Star-Lord’s
life. Also exciting are the
planned appearances of
Thanos (so far only briefly
glimpsed on the big screen)
and Loki (yay!!!).
My only gripe is that the
animated Yondu sounds little like Michael Rooker
(man, that guy is awesome).
It’s distractingly disappoint-
Jennifer ellis
COLUMnIST
ing. Regardless, I’ll tune in
for the first few episodes.
Let’s hope it’s worth my
time. And yours. But mostly
mine …
We’re only two-thirds of
the way through 2015, but I
feel confident enough to
label it the Year of
D’Onofrio. Actor Vincent
D’Onofrio (“Full Metal
Jacket” and “Law and Order:
Criminal Intent”) has
appeared in two different
high-profile geek projects
this year, playing villains in
both with wildly different
results. D’Onofrio is a great
actor and he is usually the
highlight of whatever project he appears in. For
instance, as Wilson Fisk
(Kingpin) in Netflix’s
“Daredevil,” D’Onofrio
steals the entire first season.
This is D’Onofrio at his best:
sad, lonely, intelligent, weird
and utterly dangerous. If
you’re iffy on watching the
show, I recommend tuning
in just to see his portrayal
of Fisk, which is absolutely
riveting.
Not so engrossing is
D’Onofrio as that bad dude
in “Jurassic World.” Either,
D’Onofrio is acting at a level
most human minds cannot
understand, or he is just
super cheesy in this. And
not that memorably cheesy
either. Compared to all the
dinosaur awesomeness, he
gets lost in the shuffle. And
when you do vaguely recall
him, you’re too busy
focused on how much his
character doesn’t make
sense. This guy’s master
plan is to train velociraptors
to become soldiers/assassins so he can sell them to
armies and make a lot of
money. I think that plan
defines the word asinine.
Why would anyone think
that would be a good idea?
Answer: they wouldn’t. My
point is that you should
watch “Daredevil” so you
can see just how criminally
wasted Vincent D’Onofrio
was in “Jurassic World.” Be
outraged with me …
And now is the eagerlyawaited update on my summer movie watching quest:
“Mission: Impossible Rogue
Nation” is awesome. It’s the
best one yet. It reminded me
of the better James Bond
movies. This is what a spy
movie is supposed to be
like. The action scenes are
bananas, the acting topnotch, and the story is a perfect blend of humor, thrills
and intrigue. As opposed to
the previous M:I entries, the
plot actually makes sense
and isn’t just a thin excuse
for various action set pieces.
Not that there aren’t a lot of
them, including those set in
an opera house, an underwater heavily-secured chamber,
and the winding highways of
Morocco. I definitely recommend this movie.

Beach, Fla. where he honed his performance
skills nightly in a cover band. Ghent spent his
nights in West Palm Beach exploring a colorful
range of genres from hip-hop to R&B, but he
still sought a style of his own. His time with the
group solidified his love for entertaining, but
the drive for further musical definition led him
to Atlanta, Ga.
Quickly carving his niche in the Atlanta
scene, Ghent started playing at local jam sessions and was quickly noticed by Atlanta legend Col. Bruce Hampton, the eclectic singer/
guitarist who has mentored many musicians
including Derek Trucks and Widespread Panic.
Ghent joined Hampton’s group, began honing
his signature steel guitar sound and learned
the value of breaking convention. “One of the
things Col. Bruce appreciated was the fact that
I was very spontaneous. He pushed that out of
me and showed me that it’s OK to just get on
stage without everything planned out. That’s
what the AJ Ghent Band lives by now.”
Ghent soon decided he wanted to pursue a
new sound that blended his love for soul, oldschool R&B and rock, along with the accessibility of a cover band and the experimental flair of
Col. Bruce Hampton. With the help of his wife,
MarLa, and sister, Tiffany, on backing vocals,
Ghent put his band together from a roster of
Atlanta’s finest, and the newly formed AJ
Ghent Band began gigging around Atlanta with
a fresh energy and desire to spread the love of
music.
Since then, the band has played alongside
such musical luminaries as Gov’t. Mule, Robert
Cray, The Allman Brothers and the Zak Brown
Band, all the while amassing a devoted following across the country. Ghent and his highenergy band will be bringing their electrifying
mix of funk, gospel and blues to the Millpond
stage at 9 p.m. Friday, Sept. 18.

new ‘mission: Impossible’
gets action, humor right
‘Mission: Impossible –
Rogue Nation’
Every five years or so,
we get a new “Mission:
Impossible” movie to prove
that Tom Cruise can still
carry an action movie.
There are always a few
things you can count on in
these types of spy thrillers:
cool technology, elaborate
fights and chases, dry
humor, unnecessarily dangerous covert missions,
twists where it turns out
that one character is actually another character
wearing a mask, and of
course Tom Cruise (now
53) making it all look easy.
The films basically consist
of some memorable action
sequences, some decent
jokes, and a whole lot of
forgettable plot. I don’t
mean it’s easy to forget the
plot after the movie, I
mean it’s easy to lose track
of the plot during the
movie.
Cruise once again stars
as Ethan Hunt, agent of the
Impossible Mission Force, a
group that accepts missions the CIA won’t touch.
The IMF was all but eradicated in the last movie,
now a CIA bureaucrat (Alec
Baldwin) wants them dissolved for good. With Hunt
gone rogue and the IMF
without an official director
after the last movie, he
gets his way. Several IMF
agents get absorbed into
the CIA, including interim
director Brandt (Jeremy
Renner) and tech guy Benji
(Simon Pegg). But it’s not
long before Hunt resurfaces and pulls Brandt, Benji,
and longtime ally Luther
(Ving Rhames) into an
unauthorized mission to
stop an evil organization
long thought nonexistent.
Hunt is on the trail of
the shadowy Syndicate, led
by Solomon Lane (Sean
Harris), one of the better
villains this franchise has
BoB Garver
COLUMnIST
had in a while. He makes it
a point to antagonize Hunt,
who never knows if he’s
actually hurting the
Syndicate, or playing right
into their hands. While trying to eliminate the
Syndicate, Hunt has to contend with British
Intelligence, who are also
trying to contain the
Syndicate, but in a way
that doesn’t exactly sit
right with him. Specifically,
he’s constantly crossing
paths with an agent named
Ilsa (Rebecca Ferguson)
who is undercover in the
evil organization. Hunt
never knows if she’s going
to help him, help her own
agency, or help the
Syndicate just so she can
get in deeper with them.
These films are known
for their perilous action
sequences, and this one is
no exception. My favorite
comes right at the beginning, where Hunt is clinging to the side of a cargo
plane as it takes off. I like
this sequence for two reasons; one is that I’m afraid
of heights, so it’s especially
thrilling for me, and the
other is that it allows the
characters to engage in
some George Carlin-style
“on the plane/in the plane”
banter. The one most people seem to be loving is
one where Hunt has to
infiltrate a giant water tank
so he can alter a security
system, all without using
an oxygen tank. The
sequence has some admirably tense moments, but
all I kept thinking about
how ridiculous it was that
Hunt was having to hold
his breath. OK, it’s established that he can’t bring
in a metal tank, but someone as resourceful as him
(not to mention his team)
should be able to come up
with something else.
Like the other films in
the “Mission: Impossible”
franchise, “Rogue Nation”
does action and humor
right. What it doesn’t do
right, and what none of the
films seem to be able to do
right, is pull off its tangled
web of a story. Loyalties
bounce around so much
that it’s not interesting
anymore when somebody
turns. Or when it turns out
that somebody’s wearing a
mask (I was actually able
to predict it correctly this
time, which should never
happen). Or when there’s a
twist of any kind. By all
means see it if you like
your typical “Mission:
Impossible” movie, but
don’t expect much of a
deviation from the formula.
Two Popcorn Boxes out
of Five
“Mission: Impossible –
Rogue Nation” is rated
PG-13 for sequences of
action and violence, and
brief partial nudity. Its running time is 131 minutes.
