The Inyo Register SATURDAY, ApRil 18, 2015 | INYOREGISTER.COM | SERVING THE EASTERN SIERRA AND BEYOND SINCE 1870 | 75¢ Health, Mind & BODY Are You Eating Clean? Optimism Helps Your Heart Healthy Mouth: The Early Years Kids and Television preventive Tests for Men Hiking Tips to Help You Get Outdoors APRIL 2015 A SPECIAL SUPPLEMENT TO The Inyo Register Are You Eating Clean? I t’s a health industry buzz phrase that has helped promote the effort of consuming healthier, more natural foods. But “eating clean” is anything but a passing trend. It is a lifestyle for many people as they try to cut out the added sugars and preservatives that make their way into American shopping carts, homes and bodies. The nutritional impact that eating clean has on waistlines – and the environment – is the primary catalyst behind the movement. Here’s how you can alter your eating and cooking habits to join the movement: FRUITS AND VEGETABLES The United States Department of Agriculture urges adults to consume about three cups of fruits and vegetables per day. The specific amount of fruits and vegetables your body requires to remain at optimal health depends on your age, sex and level of physical activity. By making half of your plate fruits and vegetables at each meal, you can easily meet your body’s needs. And your body will thank you for the extra vitamins, antioxidants and heart-healthy fiber found in most all fruits and vegetables. CUT ADDED SUGARS AND SODA The American Heart Association recom- mends women consume no more than about six teaspoons of added sugar per day and men consume no more than about nine. Drinking one soda per day can wipe out that allowance quickly, since the typical can contains about nine teaspoons. Other foods to avoid or limit include sugary cereals, candy, yogurt and baked goods. Always read the nutritional information of the products you are considering buying. If the sugar content of a potential purchase makes up a large percentage of your daily intake, consider swapping it out for a fruit or vegetable. COOK SMARTER Cooking clean doesn’t have to translate to you spending hours upon hours in the kitchen. In fact, by simply doubling your favorite clean recipe, you can have plenty to portion and store in the freezer for future meals. This strategy can help arm you in your fight against the urge to splurge on takeout. Instead, you can choose the easy and affordable option of reheating and enjoying your clean meal. The nutritional impact that eating clean has on waistlines – and the environment – is the primary catalyst behind the movement. The Inyo Register health, mind&body Optimism Helps Your Heart 2 saturday, april 18, 2015 S miling, laughing and simply being happy can make all the difference for our hearts. In fact, new research shows that people with higher levels of optimism may be less at risk for heart failure than those who are more pessimistic. And with the breadth of heart failure’s effect on the nation – about 5.1 million Americans are afflicted ever year according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention – a little extra optimism is surely needed. HEART FAILURE STATISTICS Other eye-opening statistics from the CDC include: • One in nine deaths include heart failure as a contributing cause. • About half those who develop heart failure die within five years of diagnosis. Heart failure costs the nation about $32 billion worth of health care services, medications and missed days of work annually. • • • • THE MAIN BEHAVIORS THAT CAN INCREASE YOUR RISK FOR HEART FAILURE ARE, THE CDC REPORTS: Smoking tobacco. Eating foods high in fat, cholesterol and sodium. Not getting enough physical activity. Being obese. POSITIVITY STUDY In the study linking happiness to heart health, optimism was defined as “an expectation that positive things will happen.” Researchers from the University of Michigan and Harvard University analyzed the linkage between optimism and heart failure diagnoses in older adults, since statistics show that people ages 65 years and older are most prone to heart failure diagnoses. Researchers gathered, analyzed and translated data of more than 6,800 older adults, including health history, background information and psychological data over the course of four years. They also took into account factors that could affect heart failure risk, such as chronic illnesses and demographic factors. The findings, published in the journal “Circulation: Heart Failure,” showed that the adults who had higher levels of optimism reduced their risk of heart failure by 73 percent. Researchers deduced that staying positive may lead people to making healthier lifestyle choices, therefore reducing their risk for heart failure. The Inyo Register health, mind&body saturday, april 18, 2015 Healthy Mouth: The Early Years Braces can be crucial to the future of one’s oral health and prevent serious issues down the line. What is the right age for braces? D ental braces have been used for decades to correct various alignment and spacing issues in the teeth. Braces can be crucial to the future of one’s oral health and prevent serious issues down the line. Roughly 25 percent of the people in North America who get braces are adults. But braces still are geared toward young people and getting them on the road to straight and properly aligned teeth early on. Braces correct a number of problems, including realigning the jaw and alleviating overcrowding of teeth. Crooked teeth can trap food and debris between them, making it harder to floss and brush. Wearing braces also corrects the bite. If teeth or jaws are not aligned correctly, it can lead to difficulty chewing food or create jaw muscle pain. Braces also may boost self-confidence because they can remedy appearance issues that may prove embarrassing. Parents eager to get their children on the road to straighter teeth may wonder when is the right time to get their kids braces. Many kids are getting braces earlier and earlier, but when to get braces typically depends on the child and the shape of his or her teeth. The American Association of Orthodontics recommends that children see an orthodontist for an evaluation by age seven. The best time for braces will be when the orthodontist and parents collectively decide it’s time to correct the misalignment of a child’s teeth. Some orthodontists prefer a two-stage approach to orthodontic treatment. They may use a dental appliance or a preliminary amount of braces to begin moving the teeth while a child still has most of his primary teeth. The second stage begins when all the permanent teeth are in. The thought is to shorten the overall duration of treatment. Other orthodontists follow the traditional approach of putting on braces once all the primary teeth have fallen out. This occurs between ages nine and 14. This is often a less expensive approach because braces need only be applied and removed once. A number of studies have shown that, for common problems alleviated with orthodontic work, youngsters are better off waiting until all of their permanent teeth have come in. Antonio Secchi, a professor of orthodontics at the University of Pennsylvania, notes that if parents choose to treat crooked teeth too early, the child may need another phase of intervention a few years down the road. Some problems, like crossbites, overbites or severe overcrowding, warrant early intervention. Scheduling an orthodontic visit early on means children can get the care they need when they need it. The orthodontist will be able to monitor how teeth are growing in and map out the best treatment plan for all. Braces can help fix an imperfect smile and alleviate oral health concerns. Parents should speak to a dentist or make an appointment with an orthodontist to evaluate their children’s treatment needs. C aring for your teeth and gums is a lifelong journey that begins shortly after birth. Dental professionals urge parents to bring their child in for a visit whenever the first primary tooth is visible. This recommendation, which used to define 3 as the starting age, has shifted over the years as the science related to oral hygiene has improved. What’s behind the change? The importance of baby teeth now carries more weight than ever before. The American Dental Association says that properly caring for those mini-pearly whites that begin popping up through the gums at around 6 months is crucial in keeping space in the jaw for adult teeth. PARENT EDUCATION A child’s first trip to the dentist can be an educational experience for parents. Dental professionals will show you how to properly clean your baby’s teeth and recognize trouble signs in the mouth, which are critical health tips not usually doled out during pregnancy or within parenting magazines. Dentists can also explain baby-specific concerns regarding dental health, which include baby bottle tooth decay. Avoiding this potentially damaging issue is simple: The ADA recommends wiping your baby’s mouth with a clean gauze pad to help remove plaque that can harm erupting teeth. Gentle brushing with a toothbrush and water should begin as soon as you start seeing teeth. DENTAL EMERGENCIES Once more teeth start showing up, the risk for dental emergencies increases. Accidents happen, but knowing how to react in such situations can be the key to retaining your child’s oral health. Here is how the ADA recommends you act in a dental emergency: • Keep a knocked-out tooth moist at all times. If you can, place the tooth back in the socket without touching the root and call your dentist right away. • For a cracked tooth, immediately rinse the mouth with warm water to clean the affected area. Look out for facial swelling and treat appropriately with cold compresses. 3 The Inyo Register 4 health, mind&body saturday, april 18, 2015 Kids and Television H ow much daily tube time do you give your kids? Two hours? Four? Six? The amount of time children spend watching television can have a direct impact on their sleeping habits, according to new research. The researchers, from Massachusetts General Hospital for Children and the Harvard School of Public Health, followed 1,800 children from infancy to almost 8 eight years old. The team asked their parents how much TV the kids watched when they were 6 months old, then every year after. The result was clear: The more TV the kids authors. By cutting down on TV and spending watched, the less they slept. Children with a TV more time enjoying other pastimes, children can in the bedroom also lost sleep – sometimes up to improve their sleep quality. half an hour less than those in TV-less rooms. TV-SLEEP CONNECTION One of the main reasons TV can shift sleep patterns is its ability to stimulate a delay in the onset of sleep. Watching violent TV might also lead to interrupted sleep, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics, since it might create anxiety that could prevent sleep if awakened in the middle of the night. So why is sleep so importantto children? Sleep deprivation in children is linked to worse performance in school, along with depression, injury, and obesity, according to the sleep study FAMILY MEDIA PLAN The AAP is concerned not only about children and TV, but also what it describes as new media spanning cell phones, social media, iPads and other devices capable of connecting online. TV remains the most popular medium for children and adolescents, but these other options are providing more “screen time” across the board. The AAP encourages parents to establish and enforce family media plans that spell out clear guidelines for when and how often children can have access to media.

Screening tests can find potentially harmful diseases early on, when they’re easiest to treat. This can mean more years of enjoying time with your family and friends, as opposed to fighting illness or worse. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services recommends the following screenings for men: BODY MASS INDEX BMI is a measure of your body fat based on your height and weight. It is used to screen for obesity and can serve as a helpful measurement to keep you on track with your diet and exercise plan. CHOLESTEROL Once you turn 35 years old, have your cholesterol checked regularly. High blood cholesterol is one of the major risk factors for heart disease. Catching it early can lead to effective treatment and better heart health. BLOOD PRESSURE High blood pressure increases your chance of getting heart or kidney disease, and is recommended to be checked every two years. CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE Beginning at age 45, you should ask your doctor about incorporating a daily aspirin to help reduce your risk of a heart attack. A special screening will help your doctor make the decision. CANCERS Men ages 50 and above should be tested for colorectal cancer. How often you are screened depends on your risk factors, and you may need to be checked before age 50. Also ask your physician about testing for other cancers, including prostate, lung, oral or skin. DEPRESSION If you have felt “in the dumps” during the past couple of weeks, you may need to speak with your doctor about depression. It is a treatable illness, and keeping it in check can help you maintain interest in the hobbies and activities that you enjoy. DIABETES If your blood pressure is higher than 135/80, ask your doctor to test you for diabetes. High blood sugar can cause problems with your heart, eyes, feet, kidneys, nerves and other body parts.

Many such parks allow visitors to camp out after a day spent rafting or kayaking on the water, making these locales the ideal vacation spots for families or groups of friends who share a love of the great outdoors. Hiking is among the more popular activities enjoyed at parks across the globe. Hikers of all ages and skill levels can enjoy trails of varying degrees of difficulty, all the while taking in picturesque landscapes that often cannot be found in developed urban and suburban areas. But as much as hiking can be enjoyed even by novice outdoor enthusiasts, this rewarding activity also can be dangerous. Hikers often find themselves in remote locations where cellular phone signals tend to be weak, which can be troublesome, even when hiking in relatively crowded parks. That’s why it’s important to take the following precautionary measures when hiking. • Never hike alone. Many outdoor enthusiasts enjoy escaping from the daily grind and getting some alone time with Mother Nature. While some outdoor activities can be safely enjoyed alone, others, including hiking, should never be done without a friend in tow. There are numerous benefits to hiking in pairs or groups, not the least of which is having someone there to go for help should anyone suffer an injury on the trails. When hiking with a group or even with only a friend, make sure no one hikes faster than the slowest hiker. This ensures that no one will get lost and that each hiker has someone there to seek help should an accident or injury occur. • Share your itinerary with someone staying behind. Even if you are hiking with others, it’s best to share your itinerary with someone who is not joining you on your trip. This way someone can alert authorities to you, and your fellow hikers’ direction if you get lost on a trail and cannot find your way out. When sharing your itinerary, share your schedule as well, telling friends who are staying behind to alert the authorities if you do not return or make direct contact with them by a given time. • Start early. Embarking on a hike early is beneficial in a variety of ways. Nature is beautiful at all times of the day, but part of the joy of hiking is taking in all of the beautiful landscapes, which are easier to see during daylight hours than at night. Hiking during the day is also safer, as it’s easier for hikers to make their way on trails when they can see where they’re going than at night, when many hiking trails are cloaked in darkness. Scavenging animals also may be more prevalent after sundown. Finally, hiking also is legal during daylight hours, whereas many parks ban hiking once the sun goes down. • Know the weather forecast. When planning a hiking trip, know the weather forecast for the day or days you plan to hike. Expect cooler temperatures, even if the forecast is calling for a beautiful warm day. Hiking trails are often surrounded by tall trees, which makes it difficult for warm sunlight to illuminate trails and warm up hikers. So pack an extra jacket or coat, ideally a rain coat that can serve double duty should it start to rain. • Carry water and snacks. Staying hydrated can make a long or challenging hike easier on your muscles, so be sure to bring plenty of water, which also can quench your thirst throughout your hike. Bring some snacks along as well. Snacks should provide you with energy to continue your hike, so leave behind snacks like potato chips or pretzels and pack your bags with fresh fruit, granola, protein bars, or trail mix. Hiking is a great way to enjoy the great outdoors. Hikers of all ages and skill levels can enjoy trails of varying degrees of difficulty, But even veteran hikers must take safety precautions all the while taking in picturesque landscapes that often cannot be found in deto ensure their trips are as safe as they are enjoyable. veloped urban and suburban areas. “Caring For Our Communities” Medical & Dental Clinics Preferred provider for most insurances BiShOP CLiNiC OPeN SATuRDAyS Bishop 52 Tu Su Lane Mon-Sat 8 AM to 5 PM Closed 12-1 PM Medical: 760.873.8461 Dental: 760.873-3443 Lone Pine 1150 Goodwin Rd.

As the Inyo National Forest prepares to release its draft Travel Analysis Report, there is a growing concern among community members that some 800 routes will be closed to off-highway vehicle travel. According to the Forest Service, the number can be misleading, since what constitutes a “route” can include a very short segment of road. To help clarify the matter and gather public input, the Forest Service is scheduled to release the draft at a public meeting from 6-8 p.m. Tuesday, April 21 at Cerro Coco Community College, 4090 W. Line St. in Bishop. The draft Travel Analysis Report is a part of the Travel Analysis Process, which is mandated by the Forest Service’s 2005 Travel Management Rule. The process requires the Forest to provide “a safe, financially and environmentally sustainable road system.” To that end, the Forest Service is analyzing routes on the Inyo National Forest to identify roads that are not used, in poor repair or are redundant (multiple roads leading to the same destination). Removing little-used, highmaintenance or redundant routes will allow the Forest to focus its resources on the routes that need maintenance or other attention.

In addition to the station in Lone Pine, Tesla has superchargers in Inyokern and Mojave and has plans to build more so that owners of its vehicles can travel the entire length of U.S. Highway 395. When Sigman approved the project in late 2013, he said he did so in an effort to help attract more visitors to the museum, expecting Tesla owners to stop in Lone Pine to make use of the supercharger. What Sigman is seeing instead is Tesla owners making Lone Pine their destination rather than a pit stop. “Some people are driving up just to charge their cars,” he said. There’s a simple explanation for that, Sigman said: people who have invested an average of $90,000 in a vehicle want to be able to drive it – they don’t necessarily care where. Indeed, even before Tesla opened the station at the museum, word of the station had traveled to the elite echelon in need of battery power to see the world. Sigman reported receiving dozens of emails and calls from Tesla owners either thanking the museum or wanting to know when the station would open. Bob Sigman, Film Museum Director There are an estimated 7,500 Tesla vehicles in Southern California, with about 20,000 produced by Tesla Motors nationwide annually. The company has plans to make its vehicle more common and thus more affordable, and thus more ubiquitous on the roads. Tesla says it will be increasing both production and demand by constructing a megafactory in Reno that will manufacture batteries for an estimated 500,000 vehicles by 2017. These batteries will be able accommodate electric vehicles made by different companies because CEO Elon Musk relinquished his patent last year to encourage growth in the market. For now, Lone Pine’s gain appears to be Bishop’s loss. Tesla had approached the City of Bishop first, in May 2014, with a proposal to build a supercharger station in a city-owned parking lot. The station would have taken up four parking spots and been centrally located in Bishop’s business district. But – in a move that still has residents and business owners scratching their heads – the city rejected Tesla’s initial offer and made a counteroffer that Tesla then rejected. During a June 2014 City Council meeting, then-City Administrator Keith Caldwell said Tesla wanted the city to assume all liability and the city, not comfortable with that arrangement, drafted a revised contract. (The museum, however, faced no such liability issues and is, in fact, fully indemnified by Tesla, according to Sigman.) The city noted that even though a station on municipal property was not an option, a supercharger could always be located on private property. Whether Tesla would be interested in giving Bishop another shot is another question. nixed Continued from front page Committe issued a statement condemning the auction, and calling for an open discussion on how to return the items to the Japanese American community. Shortly after that announcement, the Hart Mountain Wyoming Foundation (the Wyoming counterpart of the Manzanar Committee) joined the effort to prevent the artifacts from being sold. After just a few days of organizing and mobilizing, the Manzanar Committee, HMWF and the consignor (the individual putting the items up for auction) helped convince Rago Arts and Auction Center to remove the artifacts from its April 17 auction. “The HMWF and the many people who have supported us in the last few weeks are thrilled that the immediate risk to the collection has been averted, and we are appreciative of the wider Japanese American community’s concerns,” HMWF Chair Shirley Ann Higuchi said in a statement. “We now turn to the challenge of securing the future care of the collection and protecting it in collaboration with all concerned Japanese American-related institutions.” The HMWF added that the threat of litigation also factored into Rago Arts and Auction’s decision to remove the artifacts from the auction block. “Within hours after legal counsel for the HMWF communicated their intent to file a lawsuit, the Rago Arts and Auction Center announced that the auction items would be withdrawn,” the HMWF said in a statement. Like so many other Japanese American community leaders, Manzanar Committee Co-Chair Bruce Embrey welcomed the news. “We are more than pleased that Rago Arts and Auction has decided to withdraw the artifacts from Friday’s auction, and has responded to the outcry from many, especially those who were unjustly incarcerated during World War II,” he said. “It is indeed perplexing that, in this day and age, some in our country know so little of our recent history that the idea of profiting from the sale of artifacts of this nature would be acceptable.” Embrey urged caution and vigilance, noting that this struggle is far from over. “While we salute Rago Arts and Auction for withdrawing the items from auction, we note that the artifacts are not yet in our community’s possession,” Embrey said. “We urge Rago Arts and Auction and the consignor to negotiate with the HMWF in good faith to reach a quick, honest, appropriate and just settlement.” Enbrey also said that the support the Manzanar Committee received in its efforts was a major factor in its success. “We would also like to salute the HWMF, the Ad Hoc Committee, other community organizations, and all the individuals who banded together to effect positive change,” Embrey added. “We reiterate that whether it be Native American artifacts, or items from the Holocaust or slavery, it is simply not acceptable for anyone to profit from the personal treasures or possessions of an oppressed people. The artifacts and possessions must be used to educate broader society about the true nature of America’s concentration camps. This was, in fact, the very reason Allen H. Eaton sought, and was given, these items.” Rago Arts and Auction Center released a statement Thursday announcing that the sale had been cancelled. “We have always wanted to see this property where it could do the most good for history,” the press release states. “We have done our best to publicize this auction by informing the media … We relayed every good faith offer for private sale to the consignor. For us, there could be no better resolution than for a suitable museum, foundation or member/ members of the Japanese American community with the means to preserve this collection to come forward and secure it for education, display and research.” Rago Arts Managing Partner Miriam Tucker said the next step will be to have a discussion about the sale of “historical items that are a legacy of man’s inhumanity to man. It extends beyond what is legal. It is something auction houses, galleries and dealers are faced with regularly. We hope this controversy will be the beginning of a discourse on this issue.” “Now Mom can go on living at home … and I can stop worrying.” thomas metz aud audiologist hearing evaluations hearing aids balance evaluations Custom Earmolds - ipod Custom Protection Devices For Shooters & Musicians Protect Your Hearing Noise = Hearing loss Ringing Ears = Damage Call for an appointment 760-872-9399 621 W.

Fax (760) 873-3591 High speed (rail) road to perdition By Thaddeus Taylor My grandmother would frequently tell me that the “road to ‘hades’ was paved with good intentions.” I interpreted this to mean that good intentions alone won’t get things done and/or there is always a cost associated with the inevitable unintended consequences. When one takes a close look at the California high speed rail project they will see a boatload of good intentions and a mountain of consequences. The methods that the proponents of this project used are, at best, questionable. The good voters of California approved a $10 billion bond issue to get the project rolling, as it were. The sponsors of the legislation prevaricated, exaggerated and lied about the utility and cost of the rail line. The first ten billion went to “study” and plan the projected line. The ultimate cost was lowballed by the proponents. Current estimates, by the friends of the project, now top $68 billion just to build it, not to staff it or buy the trains. Your humble correspondent will go on record now and state that if built as now envisioned, it will never make a dime. One hopes to live long enough to see the proof of this and in anticipation of this I would propose a wager with proceeds to charity. Why such certainty? Easy, it is about the money. Money has a cost. Currently, that cost is clouded as the Federal Reserve is keeping short-term interest rates at close to zero. The true market cost of money is closer to 4 percent on an historical basis. Even now, financial sinkholes like Chicago would love to be able to borrow long term at 4 percent. California is nearing Top of the Morning Guest Columnist that condition as well. Shortterm debt is selling at substantially lower rates but the high speed rail will not be financed short term. Rounding up to $70 billion, which will doubtless prove a conservative estimate, and estimating an interest expense that averages 4 percent we see the following: interest alone will cost $319,000 per hour. The line will need an hourly income to average $319k just to pay the interest. This is before state employees with their splendid health and pension packages are hired. These are the same sort of state workers who cannot be fired for simple incompetence without a serious effort on the part of their employer. They will doubtless be unionized adding to the Democrat party’s support base. That will be the folks actually operating the thing and it is not a comforting thought. When you add in the operating costs, maintenance and energy costs it is clear that the bill will be somewhat north of $319,000 per hour. When the project was being sold to the largely low information voters, train usage in Japan and Europe was cited in support of the economic utility of the thing. They also mentioned the usage on the Amtrak line between Washington, D.C. and New York City. They inflated all of the examples, shamelessly. Additionally, they gave insanely low cost estimates. In short, they lied. In business this would constitute fraud. Lately, the governing board of the high speed line has been, like their brethren in Inyo County (who support the Taj Ma Bishop county office building) been violating the “sunshine laws” that require open meetings. Dear Reader, I know that I am throwing out adjectives like confetti but it is done to make the point. This boondoggle will create jobs and establish a sort of business but it will also place a heavy load on the future taxpayers for generations. All the kids in Central America will not be able to pay this thing off. Since when is it the responsibility of the State of California to create jobs and establish a business enterprise? It cannot even do what it is supposed to do, now. The gov- ernment is the only entity I know that when they mess something up, like Amtrak, they want to do more of the same. A word about government and jobs: Mr. James O’Keefe has an interesting video posted on Project Veritas (www. projectveritas.com) that shows an interview with some union bosses who are being advised of a State project that consists of digging holes and then filling them in. No gain for the taxpayer but a source of public employee union jobs. The bosses were on that like a duck on a June bug. On a cost basis alone, the pointless hole digging is the more economical alternative. (Today’s Top of the Morning is written by Thad Taylor. Mr. Taylor is a 30-year resident of Inyo County and is currently the chairman of the Inyo County Republican Party.) Significant Details Save water, save the planet, save yourself the hassle Earth Day is now 45 years old and the eco-scolds have yet to figure out how to package a “save the planet” message that actually works. For some reason that the greenies don’t understand, most folks just don’t respond real well to someone standing on a table, pointing a finger and screaming, “if you don’t pitch in you will be killing the polar bears.” Not many Americans respond to altruistic demands to “do good deeds for the sake of the planet.” However, Americans will jump all over any activity or lifestyle change that puts more money in their pocket or makes their life easier. Since we are still enjoying the benefits of a multi-year drought, let’s focus our attention on water use and abuse. Right off the bat, do-gooders should quit insisting that people should use less water on their lawns to conserve this precious natural resource so there’s enough for everyone, including the birds, bugs and fishes that make up “the web of life.” Instead, tell them that the less they water, the less they have to mow. Bingo, that’s an attention-getter. Go on to explain that, with careful planning, they can reduce lawn watering to the Jon Klusmire point that their lawn will only be vaguely green opinion and will barely grow enough to need a monthly mowing. That’s inspirational. You want transformative? Declare that in this ongoing “water crisis” there is no room, or water, for ornamental flowers and shrubs, so there will be no pricey trip to the Garden Shop to spend money on flowers that will take back-breaking hours to plant and maintain and that will bloom for a week. No flower beds, no weeding, no watering, no problem. How about revolutionary? Just continue to follow the lazy man’s logic and you achieve a completely dead, brown lawn that never needs mowing, trimming or even a second thought. With any luck, the wind will blow a big batch of weed seeds into your near-dead patch of Mother Earth, and they will sprout, allowing you to declare that you have made the leap to “native plants.” And of course, when the neighbors complain, get indignant: “I’m not killing trout just for a green lawn.” Likewise, when you shift to the “European Option” of personal hygiene by taking only two showers a week to save water, the primary benefit is that you absolutely will be getting a bigger cubicle at work and you absolutely will not be invited to lame dinner parties. All complaints about your “earthy” odor can be silenced with, “Unlike you, I don’t like killing trout for aesthetics.” Only run the dishwasher when it’s full? Do that by going out to eat four days a week and let the professional dishwasher load the dishwasher. Doesn’t get much easier than that. Finally, here’s the big payback for all your water-saving efforts. Since the water saved will help the trout, take the rest of the weekend off from lawn work to go fishing so you can reap the benefits of your efforts to tread gently on Mother Earth.

A typo towards the end altered the sentiments being expressed and thus we’d like to share Dodson’s thoughts as they were intended to be conveyed. –Ed.) These items do not belong to Mr. Eaton, his daughter, the consignor or the auction house. These items belong only to the 120,000 Japanese Americans and their families who had been incarcerated at the 10 relocation camps. My guess is that any monies acquired at auction will be divided, between the Eaton family, the consignor and the auction house. Nothing to be given to the actual owners of these precious items. Like I said – unbelievable. Kathy Dodson Big Pine Clerk-Recorder clears air over April Fool’s column In response to the April 4 article “Rush to cash in on Poverty Hills riches stresses Inyo County”: After the April 4 column ran in The Inyo Register alerting the public to the thulium rush in Inyo County, it was uncovered that what was first identified to be thulium by Jon Klusmire, museum director and resident geologist, turned out to be Fool’s Gold. Kammi Foote, the Inyo County clerk, refunded all filing fees to any unsuspecting member of the public that was tricked into believing that this valuable rare earth was being mined in the Poverty Hills. “I’m sorry if I misled anyone into believing that thulium was here in the Owens Valley,” Klusmire stated. “Next time I will double check my sources before I publish my opinions.” In the end, everyone was made whole and all legal matters were settled amicably over a good laugh.

The Crowthers Jack and Pat Crowther, married April 16, 1955, celebrated their 60th anniversary on Thursday. The couple has lived in Bishop since 1970, and both Jack and Pat work for the Bishop schools. They have a Daughter, Suzette Poirier, and son-in-law, Phil, and a son, Ted Crowther, and daughter-in-law, Les. The couple has four grandchildren, Adam, Alex, Jacob Poirier and Jacqueline Crowther, and three great-grandchildren, with one on the way. obits Continued from page 2 Virginia Mae Everett She is survived by her children, Dennis Everett, Margaret Everett Keener, Dianne Warner and son-inlaw, Allen Warner; grandsons, Skyler Everett, Jeremy, Thomas and Brandon Warner, Ethan and Jonathan and Harrison Keener; stepgrandson, Travis Keener; greatgrandson, Bruce Warner and Virginia Gavilan. She has numerous nieces and nephews and greats, too many to count. Virginia lived with her parents in Los Angeles until she married Harry Everett and they moved to Wellington, then Gabs, Nev. They then moved back to Los Angeles where Harry got on with the DWP. They then moved to Lone pine where they lived until he retired in 1986. After that they moved back to the Everett place in Wellington, Nev. When Harry passed she moved to Yerington, Nev. and spent her last years there. When she was younger she was quite the dancer. She loved to jitterbug. She and Harry used to go dancing at the Lawerence Welk Show every weekend. Santa Monica pier was a favorite hang-out too. She liked to tell the story of getting stuck at the top of the rollercoaster when it broke down and had to climb down a firetruck ladder! During World War II she had her photo in Time magazine when she was working in an aircraft factory. In Lone Pine she was involved in the PTA, Boy, Cub and Girl scouts, and volunteered at the schools and library. She also made Christmas candy every year and took it around to the various doctors and dentists and friends. Virginia drove her son Dennis to various trailheads and dropped him off for his many fishing and camping adventures. She helped her daughter Margaret move many times with much laughter. She loved to travel, going to aquariums and beaches. We would go out every spring to look at the wildflowers and she would go out in the fall to see the changing color of the trees. She was a member of the United Methodist Church in Smith Valley, Nev. and was the women’s ministries treasurer for years. She quietly loved the Lord, family and friends. She loved gardening, embroidery, cooking, canning, reading and crossword puzzles. She always had a book at hand and a game show to watch. Bird watching was also a favorite pastime. She always had a bird feeder, binoculars and a bird book around. She even had a clock that chimed bird songs in her living room. She loved her kids and grandkids and would help them in any way she could. She and Harry had the grandsons up for the summer every year. She lived a full and long life, seeing many changes in the world, from the first TV, a man on the moon to computers (which she refused to use). She even wore the first two-piece bathing suit when it came out – scandalous! She was a loving daughter, wife, sister, aunt, mother and friend. She will be greatly missed. A celebration of Virginia’s life will be held at 1 p.m. May 16 at the United Methodist Church in Wellington, Nev. She will be buried at the family cemetery in Wellington.

The Inyo Register 6 SATURDAY, APRIL 18, 2015 New water restrictions announced in Bishop City asking residents to be mindful of outdoor irrigation to conserve City of Bishop In response to the ongoing drought, the State of California recently expanded the measures it requires all water users in the state to take, including City of Bishop water users. The state now requires that water use in the City of Bishop be reduced 25 percent compared to 2013’s usage. Before the state announced its stricter water-use guidelines, the city was being asked to reduce water usage by 20 percent. To achieve the new reduction goals, the state has added several new water conservation requirements. As a result, the City of Bishop is implementing a new set of restrictions that include: • No outdoor irrigation except between 5 p.m. and 9 a.m. • No outdoor irrigation that results in water running off the property • No outdoor irrigation during and within 48 hours after precipitation (new) • New landscaping must use drip irrigation or microspray • No washing vehicles unless In the Eastern Sierra, most water is used for outdoor irrigation, so most measures address outdoor irrigation. The city may allow exceptions to some of these measures in some cases. However, more water conservation requirements are expected from the state as the drought continues. “The city has a standing water conservation incentive program available to help its water customers save water,” a press release from the Bishop Public Works Department states. The program provides free hose nozzles, hose timers and irrigation system timers and provides rebates for some sprinkler systems and water conserving appliances. The incentives are available only to water customers of the City of Bishop and are limited to one per customer account. Also, quantities of the free items are limited. The free hose nozzles, hose timer, and irrigation system timers are available at the City of Bishop Public Works Office. To receive these items, residents must go to the office, located at Bishop City Hall on West Line Street, fill out an application and pick one up while supplies last. Rebates are available for installing water saving sprinkler systems and for eligible upgrades to clothes washers, dish washers and toilets. To receive a rebate, residents must fill out an application, have their old and new item verified by city staff, and get a check. More information and applications are available on the city website or from City of Bishop Public Works. “Also, remember that landscaping needs less water now than in the heat of the summer,” the press release states. “Tailor your watering to the needs of the plants and lawn to avoid overwatering. Saving water saves money, reduces water rates, protects groundwater, is the right thing to do and is required by the state.” For more information, contact the City of Bishop Department of Public Works at (760) 873-8458. not render a decision on the routes, it is not subject to the National Environmental Policy Act. The draft Travel Analysis Report that will be made available next week includes a review of about 800 routes. “Although the Forest Service claims this report will not be acted on, it is obvious the direction they are moving,” Bishop resident and Eastern Sierra FourWheel Drive club member Mike Johnston said. “There may be some roads that are suitable to be eliminated, but certainly not 800 roads.” Schweizer said that, while 800 routes seems like a lot of roads to cover, many of the roads “are spurs or small segments, and very short. Some are roads that exist on maps, but not on the ground, and some are roads that have fell into disuse and are in a poor state of maintenance.” hose is fitted with a shut-off nozzle • No washing driveways, sidewalks and parking areas • No decorative water features unless there is recirculation • No serving of water in commercial establishments except upon request (new) • Hotel guests can choose to not have towels and linens washed each day (new) • No water waste caused by easily correctable leaks, breaks, or malfunctions • No use of potable water for construction purposes • No hydrant flushing except when required for public health and safety Tamara Cohn and Gerrie Rodenburg clean away the six years of dust built up inside the old Mairs Brett Jourdan and Kathy White tackle a shelving Market during a volunteer work day last project during last Saturday’s work day at the old Mairs Market.

Co-oP Photo submitted Photo submitted Continued from front page once we get that cleared up, we will file our permits and start installing and remodeling things.” Located at the intersection of U.S. Highway 395 and Kearsarge, the building has sat empty since 2008 when Mairs Market closed, leaving Independence without a grocery store and giving it another empty storefront along its main street. The OVGC was formed two years ago and has been hosting farmers markets in Independence and Lone Pine with much success and a significant rise in popularity, so much so that its Board of Directors began looking for ways to expand its opera- tions to better serve Southern Inyo County. The food co-op/ café was identified as another way to help build a local and sustainable food system in the Owens Valley. With generous support from Metabolic Studio, the USDA Local Foods Promotion Project and the Desert Mountain Research and Development Council, the OVGC is planning to open the old Mairs Market this summer as a food co-op/market/café/bakery and community center. According to Woodruff, the co-op will feature fresh locally produced and healthy foods and value-added products. The co-op will also provide a selection of basic sundry and grocery items, he said, hoping to fill a void amidst the small number of retail outlets in Southern Inyo County. Woodruff said the plan is to open for business by July 4, if work from here on out goes smoothly. “We’ll have probably two more volunteer work days sometime in May, and a ‘come take a look’ reception sometime during that time as well,” he said. The OVGC is optimistic about meeting its timeline and the future. “Community support here has been outstanding,” Woodruff said. For more information on the OVGC Food Co-op, call Woodruff at (760) 920-8061. She said earlier this year that the goal is not to remove frequently-used roads from the route system. Ideally, the Forest Service hopes to identify the routes that can be removed with little or no impact to Forest users. That’s where the public comes in. “Your input … will help make this analysis more accurate and complete,” Schweizer said, adding that comments should be submitted by May 18, 2015.

Now, a new study finds that selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs)—which include Celexa, Paxil, Prozac and Zoloft—may raise the risk for major bleeding in patients also taking warfarin. Warfarin has been prescribed for decades to help Dwayne Wilson prevent stroke. We are now compounding “all natural estrogen hormone replacement” as prescribed by your physicians. According to research presented at the American College of Rheumatology Annual Meeting, a daily dose of strontium ranelate—a medication prescribed for osteoporosis— may delay knee osteoarthritis progression. The study also revealed that taking strontium ranelate may lessen knee pain and reduce joint damage and the need for surgery. Knee osteoarthritis is caused by cartilage breakdown in the knee joint. Factors that increase the risk of knee osteoarthritis include obesity, age, prior injury to the knee, extreme stress to the joints, and family history. In 2005, 27 million Americans suffered from osteoarthritis, and one in two people will have symptomatic knee arthritis by age 85. In a randomized trial that included nearly 15,000 male physicians, long-term daily multivitamin use resulted in a modest but statistically significant reduction in cancer after more than a decade of treatment and follow-up, according to a study appearing in JAMA. Multivitamins are the most common dietary supplement, regularly taken by at least one-third of U.S. adults.

They steadfastly served the local community from 1971 to 2014. Grace Lutheran Church will be honoring their memory this Sunday during worship service in Bishop and Mammoth. File photo From the Pulpit Duerrs of the Word This title is a spin on and dedication for a couple who served our community from 1971 to 2014. Scripture, in James 1, commands Christians to be “doers” of the Word. Pastor George Duerr and his lovely wife Joyce were reflections of this command. Both were taken from this vail of tears, 10 days apart, last month. George and Joyce were “doers” of the Word when they responded to the mission call to Grace Lutheran Church in 1972. Both were instrumental in developing the Lutheran congregations in Bishop and Mammoth. Their four children, Liz, John, Matthew and Phil enjoyed fishing, backpacking and exploring in the Eastern Sierra. They competed in high levels of sport, found spouses and graced Bishop with their laughter, love and life. You have been blessed by all of them! George and Joyce enjoyed the benefits of their children, and grandchildren, all close to Jesus and the Church. George loved hiking and used it as a tool for building relationships. Joyce loved leading Bible studies and extending the gospel message through the Lutheran Women’s Missionary League. Each Rev. Kent Puls Columnist always found a way of communicating the cross of Jesus in creative and helpful ways. A worship service this Sunday in both Bishop and Mammoth will honor this dynamic duo. Before their death they moved to Orange to be closer to their children, in another corner of God’s Kingdom. They continued to live and serve under the righteousness, innocence, and blessedness of their Savior. Sunday we will worship the Savior who brought them to be His own. You are welcome to join this great occasion: 8:45 a.m. at Mammoth Lakes Lutheran Church and 10:45 a.m. at Grace Lutheran Church in Bishop. Mammoth Lakes Lutheran is located on the corner of Old Mammoth Road and Meridian. Grace Lutheran is at 711 N. Fowler St. One pure, perfect “doer” of the word exists. His name is Jesus, who lived the word of the Lord for George and Joyce, and for you. Our perfect living, which God requires, will not hold a candle to the holy standard of God. Jesus was the Lord made flesh, is the Lord now, and will be the Lord forever. This living Lord Jesus is your Savior from all your lack of doing the perfect will of God. He loves you, and placed all your laxity of doing on His bloody body. You are forgiven, freed and have a blessed future in union with Him. His church is not a museum for saints, but a hospital for sinners. See you this Sunday as we honor the Duerrs and most of all the Duerrs’ Savior, Jesus, the ultimate doer of the word. (The Rev. Kent Puls serves both Grace Lutheran and Mammoth Lakes Lutheran churches. Grace Lutheran Church is located at 711 N. Fowler St., Bishop.

A documentary about six ordinary individuals with six extraordinary stories will be shown to the public for free next week in Bishop. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 725 Keough St., is presenting “Meet the Mormons,” a film that challenges stereotypes and preconceived notions about the Mormon faith. The screening begins at 7 p.m. next Friday, April 24. Refreshments will be provided and a church tour will be available after the movie. According to www. meetthemormons.com, the film examines the very diverse lives of six devout members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. “Filmed on location and across the globe, ‘Meet the Mormons’ takes viewers on a journey into the day-to-day realities of individuals living in the U.S., Costa Rica, Nepal and beyond,” the website states. “From their individual passions to their daily struggles, each story paints a picture as rich and unique as the next while challenging the stereotypes that surround the Mormon faith.” Following is a look at the six individuals filmgoers will be meeting, courtesy www. meetthemormons.com: • The Humanitarian: Bishnu Adhikari – After leaving his village to receive a degree in Engineering, Bishnu Adhikari returned to his home in Nepal with a newfound faith and a determination to help improve the living conditions of the area. Adhikari now travels to remote villages in the Himalayan Mountains to build roads, schools and water systems, all while living with his faith and respecting his culture and his family’s expectations. • The Coach: Ken Niumatalolo – As Head Football Coach of the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Md., Ken The power is within you Jesus said, “The kingdom of God is within you.” It is amazing to me that mainstream Christianity groups have not latched onto this, rather than push the salvation message. The Bible says, “Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and all these things will be added onto you.” This means the kingdom which is within you, needs to be recognized by you. God is not some faroff deity sitting on a cloud, judging our every move. God is living by means of you and expressing at your direction. God does not punish nor eliminate; that is your choice. God creates by means of your actions, words and emotions. For God so loved the world, he created by means of us. It is clear that negative thinking cannot and will not reward the thinker with positive results. This doesn’t mean that positive thinker will solve all of our problems. Positive thinking is great, but it is not enough. Love is also great, but again, it is not enough. Jesus, and Rev. Walt Sharer Columnist many others have said, “It is done unto you as you believe.” All the positive words and affirmations cannot override a belief in lack, loss or limitation. All of the processions of love will not stymie a limited belief. In order to overcome and advance, something new has to be added to the equation. A lifetime of pessimism and limited thinking does not readily vanish in a moment of inspiration. We have to start somewhere, but where? There is no one answer solution for everybody. Some, like Spock on “Star Trek,” utilize logic. Some have a spiritual insight beyond what they have had in the past, and some just stumble on to the way. It doesn’t really matter how you came to a realization of God operating through you as you, what matters is what you do with it. Once we are established with the knowledge of our relationship, to, God we can move forward. In our declaration of principles, we say, “God is personal to all that feel the indwelling presence.” When that level is reached, there is a greater confidence and assuredness within each individual to handle whatever life throws at us. Life actually throws nothing at us, however, there is a momentum of lingering negativity which we must overcome. Once we know the Truth, the Truth will set us free. The freedom we seek is the freedom to be the reality of who and what we are. According to Genesis 1:26, we were each created in the image and after the likeness of God. We are to take dominion of the earth. Nobody or nothing can stand before us and claim dominion, unless we relinquish it. All of the power in the Universe resides within you. What will you do with it is the question. You can listen to useless debates about heaven or hell, or you can boldly claim your good. What the future holds is in your hands. 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.

From the calculations of flight paths to the moon during the Apollo Program, to the observations of the radio-telescope arrays at the Owens Valley Radio Observatory near Big Pine, precision is necessary to ensure astronauts leave and return safely or telescopes acquire the desired data. Letting things be off point a fraction of a degree can result in lost lives or useless information. James recognized this need for precision as well. Chapter two closed with the reminder that faith, the prime mover, is demonstrated by what a person does as a result of its presence. Chapter three opens with what appears to be a different theme. Don’t be in a rush to be a teacher because teachers are held to a stricter standard. That standard is literally measuring everything a teacher says, in or out of the classroom, against what he or she claims to be the truth. Absolute precision, plain and simple. James is quick to point out the problems with such a high standard. Nobody can real- Philip Severi Columnist ly meet it all the time. If any of us could be 100 percent, 100 percent of the time, we would be perfect. And of course, nobody is, or we would not use the old phrase “I’m only human” when things go south. James had to drive home that point. Space programs did not exist 2,000 years ago, so he put the problem in terms everyone could understand. A bit in the mouth of a horse gives the rider control over the horse, one of the most versatile and powerful creatures of his day. A small rudder controls the largest ship’s movements, even in the face of contrary winds and waves. But here’s the kicker. Like that fraction of a degree off mentioned earlier, it is the small aspects of a person that can take matters off point. The tongue is a small thing, just a bit of muscle tissue, with dual functions. The sense of taste, with the proper training, can both help us enjoy our food or warn us against something that can hurt us, for instance, a poison. That is the personal application. The ability to speak, however, affects us both individually and collectively. What we say can help or hurt, not only ourselves, but others. The effects of words are both our strength and our weakness as Christians. We can introduce people to Christ, or we can make Him a non-entity. What we say and do matters. Given what James said about faith being proved by actions, this writer thinks he would have no trouble understanding our own idiom on this subject. “Don’t talk the talk unless you can walk the walk.” The good thing is, we do not have to walk the walk solely in our own strength. We always have God’s help available. (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.) By the Creek Quiet living By Sarah Bradfield The screens beckon: “You’ve got mail,” Facebook notifications, tweets, text messages and a missed call. Being a Millennial means that I seldom remember a time when instant information and communication were not at my fingertips. Our phones and computers call for us to share every thought and image to document the human experience. We like our music loud, our movies in surround sound, and our televisions for background noise. Our country is not a quiet one. So when God’s word speaks about living quietly, it stands in stark contrast to all we’re used to. In his first letter to the Thessalonians Paul writes , “… make it your ambition to lead a quiet life and attend to your own business and work with your own hands, just as we commanded you, so that you will behave properly toward outsiders and not be in any need” (1 Thessalonians 4:1112). Note here that this is a command, not merely a lifestyle preference. His command is threefold: study to be quiet, mind your own affairs, and work with your hands. Yet this is not a call to become a recluse. In Paul’s second letter to the Thessalonians we get an idea into what prompted his encouragement for quiet living, “For we hear that some among you walk in idleness, not busy at work, but busybodies. Now such persons we command and encourage in the Lord Jesus Christ to do their work quietly and to earn their own living” (2 Thessalonians 3:11-12). The command to live quietly was preceded by those who were living loudly, worrying about everyone else. Each passage from Thessalonians above uses the word peripateo, which means to walk. When our Christian walk, our manner of living, aligns with scripture and is fueled by the Holy Spirit it will be a witness because it will be so obviously counter-cultural. Paul alludes to this type of powerful witness when he writes, “You are our letter, written in our hearts, known and read by all men being manifested that you are a letter of Christ, cared for by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone, but on tablets of human hearts” (2 Corinthians 3:2-3). So when a believer takes whatever job the Lord has assigned to him and completes it quietly with integrity, outsiders won’t be able to deny what he believes is manifested in how he behaves. If you have not believed in the Lord Jesus Christ but agree that our world is far too loud, try being silent before Him. Moses told the Israelites before being delivered from the Egyptians, “The LORD will fight for you, and you have only to be silent” (Exodus 14:14). In the same manner, God has already fought for you. You and I both were in need of a Savior because of our sin. He gave His only Son, Who willingly gave His life and conquered death so that you may live. It is a free gift which you accept by believing on Him! If you’ve already accepted that gift, continue walking the quiet life God has prescribed in His Word. Doing so will cause your light to shine, “that they may see your good deeds and glorify your heavenly Father” (Matthew 5:16).

Her children decided to have a service in the northeast where her husband is buried and where they all grew up. None of them lives anywhere near that area. I live 1,200 miles away. I was very close to that family for 13 years before my husband and I divorced. I stayed in contact with his sister for a while by phone and visited and kept in touch with his mother even after I remarried. I hadn’t talked to her in the last two years because they removed her phone. My younger daughter is upset with me because I didn’t attend the services. We haven’t spoken in two weeks. She feels I should have been there. Believe me, Annie, had I been in driving distance, I surely would have gone. I actually checked into plane tickets, hotel and car rental, and the total for four days would have cost me more than I can afford right now. I didn’t want to tell my daughter how tight my finances are. I also couldn’t take two days off of work. My children all went to the services, along with their father, and they stayed with an uncle. I was heartbroken when my exmother-in-law died. But I am no longer a part of that family like my girls are. They are a wonderful group of people, but it all seemed too much for me. Was I wrong? KATHY & MARCY – Heartbroken Dear Heartbroken: No. Your children had their father and other relatives to comfort them. We think your daughter is grieving and taking it out on you. Call her and apologize for not being able to attend the service, and tell her why. If she still refuses to talk to you, please enlist the help of your other children and, if possible, your ex-husband to intercede on your behalf. And if she seems mired in grief, suggest she look into grief counseling services, often available through her doctor or the local hospital or hospice. Dear Annie: This is in response to “The Oldest Sibling,” whose brother inherited Dad’s military medals and won’t hand them down. My father-in-law served during WWII, and all of his military awards have been lost over the years. We recently came across his discharge papers, which list all of his awards and decorations. An Internet search uncovered the National Archives Veterans Service Records (archives. gov/veterans/replacemedals.html) where one can request the issue of replacement medals. Because records for many who served were destroyed by fire, it is best to provide them any records one might possess so they can be verified. “The Oldest Sibling” may even find that the replacement medals will be a more inclusive set than what her brother has. – Iowa Dear Iowa: Thank you so much for providing this information to our readers. We know that replacements are not as emotionally satisfying as medals that Dad actually handled, but they still are something tangible to have as mementos.

Salome’s Stars ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You still might have to deal with some lingering confusion that marked a recent workplace situation. But for the most part, you should now be well on your way to your next project. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) A new commitment might demand more time than you’d expected to have to give it. But rely on that special Bovine gift for patience, and stick with it. You’ll be glad you did. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You’re earning the admiration of a lot of people who like the way you handle yourself when your views are on the line. Even one or two of your detractors are being won over. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Taking your responsibilities seriously is what you do. But ease up on the pressure gauge, and make time for much needed R & R. Start by making this weekend a “just for fun” time zone. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Some recently uncovered information might make a change of plans inevitable. If so, deal with it as quickly as possible, and then find out what went wrong and why. What you learn might surprise you. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Aspects favor moving carefully and deliberately when making any significant changes. Could be there are more facts you need to know, which you might overlook if you rush things. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) A problem neighbor might be looking to goad you into an action you don’t want to take. Ask someone you both respect if he or she would act as an impartial arbitrator for both of you. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) A recent workplace accomplishment hasn’t been overlooked by those who watch these things. Meanwhile, start making travel plans for that much-too-long- Last Week’s Answers deferred trip with someone special. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Those money matters continue to move in your favor. Now would be a good time to start putting some money back into the house, both for esthetic as well as economic reasons. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) A changing workplace environment can create job pressures. But, once again, follow the example of your birth sign and take things a step at a time, like the surefooted Goat you are. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) Cheer up. You could soon have the funds you need for your worthy project. Your generous gifts of time and effort are well known, and someone might decide it’s time to join with you. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Your inner scamcatcher is right on target, and you’re absolutely right to reject that “too good to be true” offer. Meanwhile, something positive should be making its way to you. BORN THIS WEEK: You are generous, and also sympathetic to people who find they need the help of others. The Inyo Register FACES&places saturday, april 18, 2015 13 The Stations of the Cross Our Lady of Perpetual Help celebrates Easter weekend with dramatic performance Mirta De Soto, Elsa Granado, Patricia Morenk and Laurita Rivera (l-r) played mourning friends and family members of Jesus during the Good Friday performance of the Stations of the Cross. Elsa Granada, Mary Gomez (who played Mary Magdalene) and Laurita Rivera (l-r) mourn the death of Jesus just prior to Easter Sunday. The Good Friday performance of the Stations of Jesus, played by Juan Rivas, is flogged by Roman guards before his crucifixion. the Cross was narrated by Maria Romero. Before being crucified, Jesus was forced to carry his cross through the streets of Jerusalem. On Good Friday, Our Lady of Perpetual Help Catholic Church staged a dramatic reenactment of the Stations of the Cross to remind residents of the sacrifice Jesus Christ made for humanity. Above, Jesus, played by Juan Rivas, is hung on the cross. Photos by Gayla Wolf/Honeybee Photography The Pharisees, played by (l-r) Carlos Morales Gulio Gayton and Miguel Gasco, call for Jesus’ death, accusing him of heresy. Pontius Pilate, the Roman Governor, reacts to the call for Christ’s death. Ultimately, Pilate washed his hands of the affair, leaving the decision to kill Christ up to the people. “He is not here, for He has risen.” Juan Rivas played Jesus in the Good Friday performance of the Stations of the Cross.

Magnificent view of the Palisades from the summit of 8,199-foot Piper Peak. Photos by Craig Jackson Sierra Sojourns Third time’s a charm for Piper Peak (Hiked on April 11, 2015) Lying just east of the Sierra Nevada and north of the Mojave Desert, the Owens Valley is one of the least known and thus most underrated places for vacationing in the great state of California. U.S. Highway 395 is one of California’s great scenic routes, skimming the edge of the Mojave and climbing up the Owens Valley and into the Eastern Sierra as it cuts into Nevada. Still two lanes in some spots, the road passes through groves of spiky Joshua trees, quirky desert outposts and incredible volcanic displays. It’s the only highway in the country where you can drive in a desert between two opposing mountain ranges of 14,000-foot peaks. Most visitors driving along U.S. Highway 395 don’t notice Big Pine and its roughly 1,800 residents residing at an elevation of 3,989 feet, because they are usually going south to Southern California or north to Mammoth Lakes and beyond. There’s not much happening in Big Pine and that’s how the residents like it. Personally, I always get a little anxious and excited when I get close to Big Pine because I know that just a few miles west of town are some of the best trails, peaks, glaciers and creeks in the entire Sierra Nevada. To the east are the White Mountains and access to some of the oldest living trees on the entire planet. Craig Jackson Columnist Between U.S. Highway 395 and the Palisade region of the Sierra Nevada are some beautiful rolling hills that have some wonderful geology as well great hiking and off-roading opportunities. My goal last Saturday, after two previous failed attempts, was to summit Piper Peak (8,199 feet), the prominent rounded mountain just six miles west of downtown Big Pine and clearly visible from the highway. There is a Jeep road that gets within a couple of miles of the summit, but you still must hike cross-country up-and-down to reach the top. I parked far away at Arc Road and Baker Creek, making for a long, uphill battle to the summit on a windy day. I reached the trailhead, for my third attempt at Piper Peak, by heading south from Bishop for 15 miles and then making a right on Crocker Avenue. I turned right onto paved Sugarloaf Road after 1.6 miles from U.S. Highway 395. After 0.6 miles, I turned right onto Arc Road, a graded dirt road. I drove a couple of miles on the well-graded dirt road, crossed over the Baker Creek culvert and parked in the small dirt turnout next to the old cattle fence. There are a few ways to reach the summit of Piper Peak, none that are easy or are on a maintained trail. For this particular hike, I chose to stay on the road as far as I could before starting the cross-country. I left my car at 8:15 a.m. and started hiking next to Baker Creek before turning at the first right towards Warren Bench. I passed through a flat area, and after a mile, started the steep uphill hiking while turning west. Piper Peak is always visible and at times, looks so far away. More steep uphill hiking on the road, combined with a stiff breeze, made the trip more memorable. About three miles into the hike and 2,000 feet above Big Pine, I noticed an older orange Jeep slowly approaching me on the lonely road. The driver stopped next to me and asked if I’d hiked all the way up from Baker Creek and after I said “yes,” the male passenger said I was a “warrior” for hiking all this way. Suffice to say, the hit song from Scandal in 1984, by the same name, played over and over in my head the rest of the day. Those two men would be the only humans I would see all day. I watched the Jeep drive slowly, but steadily, up the steep, sandy road and with- A 39-year-old summit register on the top of Piper Peak. in a few minutes was completely out of sight. The relentless climbing continued for another mile until I decided to leave the road and hike straight up to the peak, not knowing what was in store ahead. I started off heading in a southwest direction aiming straight for Piper Peak. On a previous attempt, I got to this point but didn’t make it all the way due to an earlier technical error. I trudged upward for about a half-mile and encountered a ravine that I had to descend 200 feet down before the final climb to the summit, so I thought. At treeline now, I started straight up the steep gully, falling back in spots due to the scattered pine cones, loose dirt and rocks. By far, the funnest part of the day. Within a few minutes and at 8,000 feet, I was on the ridge and staring directly at the summit of Piper Peak. After six miles of hiking and more than 4,000 feet of elevation gain, the summit was clearly in full view, just a short ridge hike to the top. The sweeping views west towards the Sierra Nevada were breathtaking and after a short break, I started the final push. I headed for the west ridge, and after climbing over some large boulders and in and out of some thick vegetation, I emerged at the summit of Piper Peak at 12:10 p.m. The cold wind was relentless on the summit but that didn’t bother me. I endured while spending roughly an hour loitering around the summit, enjoying a well-earned ham, mayo and onion sandwich, sliced apples and my orange Hi-C punch. There is a small summit register on top, placed in 1976 by the famous peak-bagging duo of Gordon McLeod and Barbara Lilley, in an old glass jar with a rusted top. There is also a small tin canister inside the jar with signatures from the 1940s, ’50s, ’70s and up to the last entry in November of 2014. There are different ways to descend from Piper Peak, but I chose to head back down a different way, making this a loop hike. I took the road down through the Boulder Patch and eventually met up with Baker Creek. I got back to my car at 4:30 p.m. and turned back to look at Piper Peak with a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction, knowing I can check it off my list. At a glance: • 12 miles round trip, 4,600-foot elevation gain • Excellent sweeping vistas of the Palisades from the summit • Can be warm at trailhead and cold at 8,199-foot summit • Jeep road access can make it a much shorter hike • Short after-hike drive to Big Pine for refreshments and BBQ (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.

Review Examining our roles in saving National Parks By Mike Loughman “Uncertain Path” by William Tweed, the 2015 Inyo County Community Reads selection, begins as a rather conventional account of a backpack trip over the John Muir Trail in our Sierra Nevada. But then Tweed delves into history, environmental issues, our conceptions of our national parks and wilderness areas, and how we should manage these institutions in a changing and an increasingly troubled world. This is all entirely appropriate as Tweed has had a long career as a historian, park ranger and park administrator, in particular with Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. The Muir Trail is a busy thoroughfare, and the numbers of hikers and riders with pack animals have taken their toll on the terrain, the solitude and the sense of wilderness. Tweed does not seem to venture very far from the Muir Trail or describe the much vaster Sierra with little frequented trails or none at all. The extent of trailless country and the ease of travel off-trail are one of the great wonders of the Sierra. So the reader may get a false impression of the state of the terrain and character of the experience available over a vast region. As might be expected, Tweed is at his best dealing with the history. Kings Canyon National Park was the (1940) result of one of the most raucous political battles in Congress during the Franklin Roosevelt Administration. The conflict within the administration was bitter. It led to a major shift in the U.S. Forest Service toward wilderness protection in order to keep its share of the public lands. Tweed deals at length with the dilemma facing the National Park Service. In a world increasingly impacted by human activity, it is charged with preserving the parks “unimpaired” for future generations. He seems to favor active management, while others in the preservationist movement want a softer touch in the wildlands. Much of this debate probably turns on the definition of terms like “natural” and “wild.” One of the major impacts, of course, is climate change and its relation to fire. Surprisingly, he does not deal with the state of the Sierra forest at the time of the Anglo-European arrival. It was already substantially the product of hundreds if not thousands of years of deliberate burning by Native Americans. As a result of the removal of the natives and a vigorous effort at fire suppression until recent decades, the forest today is very different from what it was 150 years ago, and the danger of fires is much greater. Climate change is making things still worse. So, active management or a soft touch? I prefer the latter. Tweed seems to be addressing government managers more than he addresses the rest of us. He says little about the world outside of the parks. Changes are needed in the larger world, or the parks will surely be impaired. So what is yours and my role in saving our National Parks? “Uncertain Path” is a worthwhile read, but it is not always easy going.

The Inyo Register 18 EASTERN SIERRA HISTORY SATURDAY, april 18, 2015 Old Dinah, a steam tractor used briefly (and unsuccessfully) by Francis M. “Borax” Smith to transport wagonloads of ore from the mines at Borate to the railroad at Daggett. Old Dinah is currently on display at the Furnace Creek Ranch. A work train on the first high trestle of the Death Valley Railroad, August 1914. The construction of this railroad, which was intended to connect the mining camp of New Ryan with the Tonopah & Tidewater Railroad at Horton, began in the fall of 1913 with a crew of 325 men, 150 mules and Fresno scrapers. Photos courtesy Eastern California Museum Death Valley borax mines led to transportation firsts By the Eastern California Museum Virtual Transportation Museum Death Valley enjoys a rich mining history, but not many of the region’s mines generated longterm rich returns for investors or miners. Gold and silver drew the attention of most miners, but produced, at best, shortterm bursts in activity and, in some cases, the establishment of mining camps or towns, from Cerro Gordo to Panamint City to Skidoo. These towns’ fortunes rose, and then fell, based on the mineral wealth generated by nearby mines. Other mining operations banked on less glamorous minerals, such as salt, but their fortunes, too, were shortlived. The one great exception to Death Valley’s boom and bust mining history is borax. The mineral spurred development of Death Valley in the late 1800s, and remained one of the few minerals that could be profitably mined and shipped out of the hostile environment of Death Valley. Rail lines were built, towns sprung up to house miners and the desert started to look a lot more prosperous than it used to. In addition to the economic benefits, borax mining and shipping created one of the iconic images of Death Valley, the famed 20-mule teams. Long after the 20-mule teams were replaced, the image of a long string of mules pulling a huge wagon across the unforgiving landscape became probably one of the most recognizable images and symbols of Death Valley. Pacific Coast Borax used the 20-mule team icon to market its product, and continued to hitch up and drive 20-mule teams in Death Valley as a promotional vehicle well into the 1950s. That tradition continues today, when Bobby Tanner of Bishop drives a 20-mule team hitch at Mule Days. The lasting legacy of borax mining can also be seen today. Pacific Coast Borax didn’t abandon its Death Valley holdings when richer, more accessible borax mines came into production. Instead, the company enthusiastically, and at great cost, built and operated numerous tourist-related facilities in Death Valley, most notably the array of visitor amenities at Furnace Creek. Eventually the company allowed its holdings to become the Death Valley National Monument, the precursor to today’s Death Valley National Park. Discovery of ‘Cottonball’ borax leads to a mining boom Inyo County was the leading source of borax in the United States from 1882 until 1890 and from 1907 until 1927. Between 1890 and 1907 and from 1928 on, San Bernardino County was the leading producer. Although deposits were discovered in Saline, Death and Searles valleys in the 1870s, it was the discovery of “cottonball” borax on the east side of Death Valley by Aaron Winters in the early 1880s that started the borax boom in Inyo County. In 1882, William T. Coleman purchased the Death Valley claim from Winters for $20,000 and established the Harmony Borax Works. To make the transport of borax economically viable, Coleman needed to establish a freighting system. As a result, 10 specially built high-wheeled wagons, each weighing four tons, were hitched in pairs with a water wagon carrying a 500-gallon tank attached at the rear. Each set of wagons was pulled by a team consisting of 18 mules and two draft horses. Sacks of borax were transported to the railhead at Mojave by five separate teams that ran like clockwork. From 1883 until 1889, these famous 20-mule teams made the 20-day round trip between Death Valley and Mojave, traveling at a rate of 15 to 18 miles per day. Each wagon team could haul up to 28 tons of borax. In the late 1880s, deposits of a new borate mineral named colemanite were discovered in Furnace Creek Wash on the eastern edge of Death Valley and in the Calico Mountains near Barstow. Production shifted from Death Valley to the Calico Mountains, and the new town of Borate was established 11 miles from the Daggett railhead. Borax production doubled, but this caused prices to plummet, and in 1888 Coleman’s empire collapsed. In 1890, Francis Marion “Borax” Smith acquired all of Coleman’s borax properties, and with these and his own holdings formed the Pacific Coast Borax Company with the famous “20 Mule Team Borax” trademark. Borate deposits in Death Valley were virtually abandoned in 1890, and San Bernardino became the leading producer of borax until 1906 when the deposits at Calico finally played out. Borax mining resumed in Death Valley in 1903, as it had become evident that the deposits near Borate would soon be exhausted. The town of Ryan grew up around the Lila C. Mine where initial After the mines stopped producing, the Ryan Baby Gauge Railroad transported tourists on mine tours as part of the transition of Death Valley from a mining region to a tourist attraction. This 20-mule team was one of the “promotional” teams Pacific Coast Borax used to publicize its Borax Soap, which used the 20-mule team as its logo. borax production started. A mill was established at Death Valley Junction on the Tonopah & Tidewater Railroad line, and a spur was built from the mill to Ryan. Constructed by F.M. Smith in 1907 in hopes of cashing in on the Rhyolite boom, the Tonopah & Tidewater was used to haul borax instead. By 1915, the Lila C. had produced more borate ore than all of Death Valley’s previous borax operations combined, but Smith ultimately went bankrupt due to other investments and lost control of the mines. To reach the best deposits in the Funeral Range, the reorganized Pacific Coast Borax Consolidated built the narrow gauge Death Valley Railroad, which was completed to Horton on the Tonopah & Tidewater in 1914. “Old Ryan” was torn down and moved to the new location, and the Lila C. was abandoned. Extensive production took place at the Widow and other mines in the vicinity of New Ryan over the next dozen or so years. Ore from these mines was hauled by a 24-inch (baby) gauge train to New Ryan where it was loaded onto the narrow gauge Death Valley Railroad. From Ryan, the ore was transported to Horton where it was transferred to railcars on the Tonopah & Tidewater standard gauge line. By 1927, production from the mines in the Funeral Range had reached $30 million. However, amazingly rich deposits of pure borax were discovered in the Mojave Desert at Kramer (Boron) on the transcontinental railroad that same year, and borax was also being mined from Searles Lake near Trona. Unable to compete, the mines in the Funeral Range ceased operations in 1928. The “Baby Gauge Railroad” approaching New Ryan, circa 1916. Gasoline locomotives pulled the small ore cars over 24-inch-gauge tracks. The Baby Gauge operated between New Ryan and the Widow Mine, traversing a five-mile route that curved sharply around cliffs. That prompted Pacific Coast Borax to look at is Death Valley holdings as a tourist attraction, not a mining property. The allure of Death Valley to visitors became apparent fairly soon. In a short time, the Tonopah & Tidewater and Death Valley railroads were given new life transporting tourists to Death Valley, and instead of hauling ore from the mines, the baby gauge train was used to ferry people on mine tours. Fascination with the rugged landscape and extreme conditions in Death Valley continues today.

Bishop The Broncos varsity boys are now 6-6 overall, 2-3 in the league. Their last game was an extra-inning marathon against Rosamond which ended in a heartbreaking 7-6 loss. Coach Chris Walston has been teaching small-ball with success and the pitching has been a highlight this season. The Lady Broncos varsity girls are 7-6 overall and 2-3 in the league. Coach Mike Jones has to be happy with the way the girls have been playing. They’d been racking up the wins until they too hit this last tough stretch against Rosamond. The JV girls are 3-7 overall and 1-1 in the league, and the JV boys are 1-4-1. Next up for all Bishop teams is a trip to Cal City for games at 3:15 on Tuesday, April 21.

Earlier this week they posted a 13-0 win over Mammoth and they also had a game yesterday against Desert – too late to report for today’s edition. The Golden Eagles boys got off to a frustrating start, and are now 4-7 overall, 1-5 in league play. Some of the stars for Coach Mike Button had little time to get ready for the season, coming off their run in the basketball playoffs. The team has a few standout wins under its belt, but has struggled overall. Both Lone Pine teams play host to Silver Valley at 3:15 this Wednesday, April 22. Big Pine Coach Jose Rico’s boys Warriors squad has plenty of highlights this year – the pitching and hitting have both been stellar. Last week they walloped Beatty in both ends of a double-header. The Lady Warriors have had a tougher time of it, but that is to be expected; this is the first girls softball team Big Pine has fielded in two years and Coach Bob Church is pleased that ball games are being played. Big Pine teams were scheduled to play Baker this week but the Baker Braves cancelled the game (and the rest of their season). Big Pine also had a doubler header against Trona on the schedule for Friday. Those games have been rescheduled for Tuesday, April 21.
