Hawes and Mull under investigation?
Reverge Anselmo says he went to FBI - Hawes says “It is BS”
By Walt Caldwell
Mountain Echo editor
A bitter 2008-09 dispute between Reverge
Anselmo,
owner
of
7-Hills Ranch and Anselmo Vineyards a dinner house known for its
fine dining, fine wines,
and beautiful view, led
to litigation and finally
may have resulted in an
investigation of two of
Shasta County’s top officials, Glenn Hawes and
Russ Mull, by the Federal
Bureau of Investigation.
The
battle
began
when Anselmo removed
blackberry vines from
his ranch in Inwood,
west of Shingletown.
The County came down
hard on him accusing
him of damaging a wetland which turned out to
be a controversial claim.
Anselmo pointed out
that he was a rancher operating a ranch and removing blackberry vines
was not disturbing any
wetland. The County,
led by Hawes who was
chairman of the Board
of Supervisors at the
time, and Mull, who is in
charge of the Planning
Department, continued
to pursue the matter.
Anselmo says that
while seeking information to be used during the
continuing litigation, he
began finding things involving Hawes and Mull
which appeared to him
to be criminal. He began
turning that information
over to the FBI in 2010.
He says he has talked to
agents since then and
been assured that the
agency was investigating. But, because of policy, he says, they would
not tell him anything
further.
Gina B. Swankie, a
spokeswoman for the
FBI, also told Mountain
Echo it was against the
Department’s policy to
confirm or deny any inquiry regarding a possible investigation and
declined to make any
comment regarding any
possible investigation of
Hawes or Mull.
The rumor of an investigation has gone
county wide since it
was aired on KCNR and
KQMS radio station
talk shows in December,
when callers said Hawes,
who was announcing his
candidacy for another
term as Supervisor and
Mull, are reportedly being investigated.
In a phone interview
Hawes, says it’s crazy
and just a rumor. Mull
didn’t return Mountain
Echo’s phone call by
press time Monday.
Anselmo says “it is
no mystery that there is
something very wrong
with the relationship between Hawes and Mull.”
One questionable item
he says involves a business owned by Hawes,
the Stillwater Plains
Mitigation Bank, Inc.
and the county planning
department. According
to Anselmo the county
was requiring, what, he
feels, was an unusually
large number of bonds,
insuring the protection
of the environment. He
alleges that Hawes has
an exclusive territory for
issuance of such bonds
in the Shasta County
area. Anselmo said that
appears to be a direct
conflict of interest.
Hawes, acknowledged
that the mitigation bank
was his company and
said that people required
to mitigate issues don’t
have to use his services.
He says they can post
money with the agency
requiring the mitigation
in lieu of a bond.
Hawes said he had
tried to find out if he was
being investigated and
was unable to because
of the agency’s policy
not to comment. He says
he asked Sheriff Tom
Bosenko to check with
the FBI on his behalf
and Bosenko had told
him there was nothing to
the rumor.
The whole thing is
“no more than a rumor,”
Hawes said. It is B.S.”
Anselmo says it is being investigated and may
take some time because
of the FBI’s thoroughness.

NOME, AK- Jeff Kinzel, 58, son
of Jack Kinzel of Burney is one of
the 3,500 Nome, Alaska residents
anxiously awaiting the imminent
delivery of fuel.
The town is expected to run out
before their Spring Shipment can
be brought in.
Nome was already iced in when
the November shipment was
scheduled to arrive so it wasn’t
delivered.
Gasoline, diesel and fuel oil already costs the residents $5.43 a
gallon.
There are no roads into Nome
and ice has blocked the harbor.
If the gasoline has to be flown
in, one aircraft load at a time, it
is estimated that gas will cost the
consumers in Nome well over $9 a
gallon.
Temperatures are regularly recorded at 20 degrees to 30 degrees
below zero and the ice has made
it necessary for the Coast Guard’s
only currently active ice breaker,
the Healy, to accompany a double
hulled 9.5 million gallon Russian
tanker, the Renda, with a load of
fuel from South Korea.
In addition to the ice, the mission has faced problems that had
to be solved. Homeland Security
has waived regulations to make
the joint effort possible.
The ice breaker and tanker are
too large and the harbor too shallow to come into port so, when
they arrive, they will have to work
out a way to get the fuel in. That
way will probably involve using a
mile of special hose one of the two
ships is carrying.
McARTHUR - Local
Farmers and ranchers
met for the annual Winter Ag Meeting hosted
by Shasta County Ag Department, University of
California Cooperative
Extension,
McArthur
Farm Supply, Floyd A
Boyd Co., and Copp’s Irrigation.
Growers were given
the opportunity to update their Restricted Material’s permit through
Shasta, Lassen and Modoc Counties.
Topics
covered
ranged from an update
on restrictions and rules
through the Ag Commissioners office and a
demonstration of safety
equipment.
The Natural Resource
Conservation
District
(NRCS) was on hand to
go over changes in the
funding programs for
farmers and ranchers
in the area. The “Equip
Program” will no longer
be selected from just the
local area. All applications will be selected
from a regional area. Applications are rated and
compete against a larger
pool for available funds.
For more information on
NRCS projects and funding, contact the McArthur NRCS office.
Shasta County Farm
Advisor Dan Marcum
and McArthur Farm
Supply PCA, Steve Iliff
discussed the importance of fertilizer, methods of soil and plant
sampling and how to
compensate for deficiencies. Iliff presented data
related to the amount
of nutrients taken away
from a crop at harvest.
He and Marcum both
emphasized that having
samples evaluated can
“paint a better picture”
as to what fertilizers and
nutrients a crop needs.
Iliff reiterated that all
fields and soil are different so standard fertilizer practices of “what
we have always done”
may not produce the best
yields. In addition to
proper nutrient balance,
water quality is also important. Steve Grattan
of UC Davis addressed
water quality and its affect with plants response
to fertilizers.
Cattle ranchers heard
from Shasta County
Livestock advisor, Larry
Forero regarding the
performance advantage
of wintering Cattle in
the Sacramento Valley.
Hay markets were also
discussed along with the
markets for other local
crops.
There were several
breakout Sessions available including livestock
issues, irrigation and
technology,
marketing
and the annual InterMountain Haygrowers
meeting. A trade show
was also available for
those in attendance.

S
upervisor Glenn
Hawes questioned why I
would do a story about
an alleged FBI investigation into he and the head
of County Planning
Russ Mull, when it was
based “on a rumor.” He
also pointed out that no
other news media was
reporting on the rumor.
My reasoning is
simple.
First, I don’t base my
reporting on what any
other media organization does or does not
choose to report. My
job is to report accurately, fairly and be as
thorough as possible
on issues of interest
to my readership, not
what some other media
organization thinks is
politically correct or of
interest to their readers.
Second, I’ve never
been known for being politically correct,
or willing to back off
because someone would
rather I not do a story.
Third, Mr. Hawes is
a public figure, elected
by the voters of Shasta
County’s District 3, of
which the Intermountain Area is a part. Mr.
Mull is a bureaucrat
serving at the pleasure
of Mr. Hawes and the
other supervisors.
What these two men do
directly affects our daily
lives and future of those
they serve.
I
knew it would
happen, school is
back in after the
holiday break and the
pace has picked up. In
fact, I write this column while at the Etna
basketball tournament
where all Fall River
and Burney teams are
playing. There are a lot
of familiar faces and it
seems like everyone is
having a great time.
It is pretty neat
watching Fall River
alumni become involved
in coaching. Breanne
Reynolds is helping
with the varsity girls
and Matt Westland and
Colin Corr are involved
in the boy’s program.
These were all very
talented athletes at our
local school. Thank you
for becoming a part of
our community and
students!
There are several
fundraiser dinners
coming up that you may
want to plan ahead for.
The Adin Crab Feed will
be two nights, Friday,
January 20 and Saturday,
January 21 at the Adin
Community Hall. Cost is
$30 and the dinner is at
6:30 p.m. both nights.
If it’s crab you like
you will have another
chance at the Fall River
Boosters Crab and triTip Dinner on February
11 in McArthur. This
dinner will be from 6
– 8 p.m. and tickets are
available from booster’s
club members. The
boosters do a lot of work
supporting the local
athletes and students.
They will again be hosting Sober Grad Night, so
your contribution will
be well used.
As examples, the
County Board of Supervisors, at the recommendation of the Planning
Department have
considered and passed
controversial measures
with the potential of
major impacts such as
the “High Density – Low
Income” planning measure and the Knighton
Road Project and the
Hatchet Ridge Windmill
Project, each which
had large numbers of
individuals in the affected areas opposing
them. In the case of the
Knighton Road Project
the citizens have gone so
far as to force the issue
to be placed on the June
ballot.
Fourth, Reverge Anselmo, is not known as a
kook. He is a legitimate
rancher and business
man, well known and
successful, who became
embroiled in a dispute
with the County in a
highly publicized matter
still going through the
courts.
Fifth, Mr. Hawes
has announced he is
planning to run for re
election and his record
is under scrutiny by
his constituents. When
rumors, true, false or
otherwise reach the public for whatever reason
or in whatever manner
they may impact the
election of an official
such as Mr. Hawes. If,

Mayers Memorial Hospital has a new
slogan. “Always Caring,
Always Here.” The new
slogan was a collaborative effort by the facility team, starting as a
contest for employees.
Almost twenty possible
slogans were entered,
with the winning slogan
submitted by Keith
Earnest, Chief Clinical
Officer for Mayers. After
employees submitted
their ideas, the choices
were narrowed down at
several committees and
the final decision fell to
the Board of Directors
during the December
meeting. Mayers Board
of Directors members
also adopted a new Mission statement: “Mayers
Memorial Hospital District serves the Intermountain area providing
outstanding patientcentered healthcare
to improve quality of
life through dedicated,
compassionate staff and
innovative technology.”
I hear that Keith happens to be in Thailand at
the moment along with
Burney High School
Graduate Brett Shoemaker. There were even
pictures of Brett parasailing. Looks like quite
an adventure.

information gathered
can then be presented
so that the constituents
may evaluate the issue
and act with a better
understanding of what
the “rumor” is all about.
The constituents can
make up their minds as
to whether the rumor is
true or false.
It is too bad that law
enforcement agencies at
all levels will not “confirm or deny” inquiries
about their investigations. That would quickly turn a rumor into fact
or garbage. However, if
they did that, it would
also severely hamper,
if not destroy, many of
their chances to complete an investigation.
With that in mind, I
did everything I could to
verify the validity of the
rumor. I presented what
I found out fairly and
thoroughly and kept side
issues and non-related
issues out of the story.
My door is always
open to anyone who
wishes to give further
information which may

A look at the other side of the world
Four months in Botswana - the final chapter
By Shea Logan
Mountain Echo reporter
I
n July I said goodbye to Burney and
my school to study
abroad in Botswana
Africa. For the past four
months I have lived and
gone to school at the
University of Botswana.
I joined twenty other
students from across the
U.S for a new experience. Just like the others, I left not knowing
what to expect but ready
for anything that came
my way.
This semester has
been a whirlwind and
the time has come to say
goodbye to UB, the many
friends I’ve gained, and
Botswana. This past
week the 21 of us had
the chance to visit the
Okavango Delta before
we all said goodbye. The
Okavango is the largest inland delta in the
world. It encompasses
multiple protected game
parks and is one of the
most popular tourist
destinations in Africa.
Home for many animals,
the Okavango is what
many people imagine
when they think of
Africa.
After spending most
of my time in the city
at the university it was
great to spend the past
week hours away from
any town or city camping in different game
parks. Every morning
we would wake with
the sun and spend eight
hours in the back of a
safari truck in search of
lions, elephants, leopards, and many more.
It could be hours,
even days, before you
saw the next predator.
It’s not everyday that
you see a lion or leopard
and it’s fairly rare to see
any but the sight of one
would make everything
worthwhile. We happened to be the lucky
few to spot them with
ease.
Within hours of entering the large reserve
we came across three
pregnant lionesses lying
in the shade next to the
road. The lionesses lay
there, unaffected by our
presence, as we were
able to drive within feet
of them. The following morning we drove
around a corner to find
a pride of lions with a
cub. Again, the lions
paid little attention to us
as we sat there in awe.
We thought it couldn’t
get any better but it did
everyday.
It had been three
weeks before any tourists, guide, or park
official had seen any
leopards and we were
warned that it was a
high possibility that we
wouldn’t see any. It was
only the second day of
camping when we were
out on a late afternoon
drive. We had already
spent four hours in the
truck and it was quite
uneventful up until
that point. I was in the
second of three trucks
when in the distance we
just happened to spot a
crouching leopard.
We had hit the jackpot. The leopard was
on the hunt, looking
for its next dinner. We
were lucky enough to
get within ten feet of it
following it as it inched
closer to the impalas and
wildebeests. The leopard
waited over thirty
minutes waiting for the
right moment to pounce.
There were so many
chances for the leopard
but the impalas and
wildebeests outsmarted
him and escaped before
he could catch his prey.
With in an unsuccessful chase the leopard
climbed up a tree to
take a nap while we
looked on. It was one
of the most amazing
sights. This was a ‘This
is Africa’ moment. We
had spent months in
Botswana waiting for
something like this and
we had just ended our
time abroad on top of
the world.
With our last time
together in the Okavango Delta, the time has
come to leave Botswana.
Many people, including
local Batswanans, have
asked why I chose to
study in Africa. I’ll be
honest and say that at
first I didn’t really know
either. I had barely
heard of Botswana
before meeting with
advisors and knew
little about Africa. I
just knew I wanted to go
there.
Now that my study
abroad has come to a
close, I couldn’t be happier with my choice.
Africa was long in the
making, I had the opportunity to anywhere in
the world and I wanted
something different. I
went to school with
15,000 local and international students, took
part in multiple excursions, lived with a local
family in a ‘village’, and
ended with an amazing
safari.
The past four months
have been filled with so
many memorable moments. There have been
many places I’ve never
thought of going to but
coming to Botswana
has given me so many
opportunities. I have
lived with the Batswana,
visited South Africa
and Zambia, and have
experienced some of the
most spectacular environments in the world.
After coming to
Botswana I was warned
that I wouldn’t want to
leave. Beyond the exciting locations, it has been
the hardest to say good-
bye to all the friends I’ve
made. We have always
joked that it takes a
certain kind of person
to choose Botswana; you
have to want to go. It is
hard for someone to go
out on a limb and spent
months in a country
studying with little or
no insight.
Five months is not
long but being in an
unfamiliar country with
people that I’ve never
met has had a significant impact on my life.
The feeling of leaving
Botswana has been similar to that of graduating high school. There
are always going to be
those moments that I
will always remember
and want to relive. I
met incredible people
and made great friends,
some I may never see
again, but we have all
shared in this experience. One thing will
always remain: we all
came into this program
alone and left one big
family.
I had an amazing
time in Africa and I
want to thank the Mt.
Echo Walt and Donna
for allowing me to share
in my experience.

Nielsen angry
over delay in
funding
Veteran’s
Home
SACRAMENTO
–
Budget Vice Chair, Assemblyman Jim Nielsen
(R-Gerber)
expressed
his outrage with Governor Brown’s decision in
his proposed budget to
delay the Redding Veterans Home for yet another
year denying those who
have served and sacrificed for our nation the
care they deserve.
“This is just one of a
long list of bad decisions
Brown has made that
have hurt veterans since
he’s been in the office,”
said Nielsen. “He’s reneging on a commitment
he’s made to those who
have fought hard, sacrificing their lives even,
for our country.”
“Brown appears to
be holding the already
completed Redding and
Fresno Veterans homes
hostage in a budget proposal that one commentator has accurately referred to as ‘the biggest
ransom note in history,’
said Nielsen. “The Governor’s threat that if
California citizens don’t
‘pay up’ to the tune of $7
billion in new taxes, he
will
cut these homes,
cut three weeks from
the K-12 school year and
continue his dangerous
release of tens of thousands of un-rehabilitated
criminals into their communities, is a shakedown
of epic proportions.”
Nielsen
explained
that the delay for another year of the Veterans
Homes could compromise Federal Funding
to assist with these important projects, and he
thought this was an unacceptable risk to take by
delaying the homes’ com
pletion.
“As for our American
heroes, California veterans, the Governor’s track
record has proven that
they are not a priority
for him, especially when
state expenditures are
increased by 7% in the
proposed budget,” said
Nielsen.

Sunny With Occasional Tirades - a review
Sharon Nesbit
Sunny with Occasional
Tirades
By Sharon Nesbit
By Walt Caldwell
Mountain Echo editor
What
I’ve
always
loved about Sharon Nesbit is that she’s been
there. She understands
life and presents it with
a smoothness and sense
of humor that makes
it a joy to read. Additionally, each column is
short meaning you can
pick the book up and put
it down without losing
your train of thought.
Her column on “The
Outlook” the paper she
has worked for more
than 40 years, could just
as easily been describing
The “Mountain Echo”
or many other papers,
when she says “...And
more nights than we can
count, we are the only
people at city council
meetings, except, of
course, the city council.”
She went on to point
out that those in the
newspaper business are
human, “Some nights
we screw it up and miss
a quote or spell a name
wrong or - dammit- louse
up the numbers. Often
we print a story that
some hurting family
wished they didn’t have
to read. All of our readers want more of some
things, less of others
and are positive the other High School gets the
most press.”
It
doesn’t
matter
where you open up her
book, you find yourself
reading about something
familiar. As an example
I opened randomly and
read “Spock, keeping babies alive.”
As someone whose
mother
and
father
sprayed DDT on the floor
to kill ants, didn’t panic
when I teethed on the
table legs that had been
painted with a lead based
paint, and taught me I
could make my pennies
shiny if I rubbed them
with liquid Mercury, and
for the most part raised
my daughter the same
way because no one had
drummed into us that
we had to worry about
germs on everything,
and that if you didn’t
wrap your kid in bubble
wrap and dress them
like they were going to
play tackle football the
chances are they’d kill
themselves. Sharon put
it better, saying in part...
“If something went
wrong, we looked in his
troubleshooting
guide
(Benjamin Spock’s book
of Baby and Child Care).
Usually the first paragraph under a subjectfor instance, “vomiting”- yielded the answer.
(either Jell-O or warm
7-Up.) The trick was to
read no further. If you
pursued the subject to
the third paragraph, you
got to projectile vomiting
and panicked.”
I understood and
chuckled and ended with
a better understanding
that Donna and I weren’t
alone in how we experienced the world around
us, just as my grandson Scott and his wife
Crystal would when she
points out “...we raised
our children without the
guilt required of today’s
parents. I think that’s
what bugs our kids.
That, and the fact that
they turned out pretty
well.”
The 100 columns span
11 categories from beginnings to life lessons
with Maud, technology,
tirades casual parenting
and casual grandparenting among those in between.
I have no problem
recommending the book
written by Sharon who
also delighted our readers for a number of
years, edited by the editor of the Gresham, Oregon Outlook, her boss,
Len Otto, Sunny with Occasional Tirades sells for
$15.95 and is currently
available at Mountain
Echo or Amazon.com.
In fact, I think it should
be required reading for
all who take themselves
too seriously and want
to think and learn with a
smile on their face.
No Warning - No Mercy - a review

New Twists On
Dessert Favorites
(StatePoint) Getting your family to eat right
doesn’t mean forcing them to skip dessert or forego
favorite cakes and cookies. You just need to learn to
prepare those sweets in better ways.
It’s all about making desserts that are wholesome
and delicious, so your kids will actually eat them. A
few easy alterations can make a big difference -- such
as reducing sugar or fat, adding fruits or swapping-in
more healthy fats and grains.
Here are some tweaks for your family’s sweets:
• Substitute: Replace ingredients with smart alternatives. Try swapping white flour with whole wheat
flour in cakes and cookies. You can use two egg whites
for a whole egg in most recipes, or dark chocolate instead of more fattening milk chocolate. And low-fat
milk usually can be used instead of whole milk.
• Reduce: For starters, serve-up smaller dessert
portions. Plate a small slice of cake or pie with some
fruit and your kids won’t notice the difference. Within recipes, try reducing the amount of sugar or butter. In most cases you won’t miss what you leave out.
• Don’t Deprive: Most desserts add some fat and
sugar into your family’s diet. Deal with it. Saying
“no” will lead loved ones to look elsewhere for sweets
at school or work. You can even indulge their urge
for candy. Just be careful with portions and consider
smart options, such as Nestlé Raisinets, California
raisins drenched in rich Nestlé Milk or Dark Chocolate. They have 30 percent less fat than the leading
chocolate brands and provide real fruit in every serving.
• Add Fruits: Add fruits to cakes and pies, even as
toppings instead of whipped cream. You can add apples or applesauce to most recipes without anybody
complaining. And tossing in some berries or raisins
will add antioxidants.
To get started, here’s an easy recipe for oatmeal
cookies using whole wheat flour, brown sugar and a
special twist. More creative recipes can be found at
Facebook.com/raisinets.
Deluxe Oatmeal Raisinets Cookies
1 1/4 cups white whole-wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter or margarine, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
3 cups quick or old-fashioned oats
1 cup Nestlé Raisinets (dark or milk chocolatecovered)
1 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Preheat oven to 375° F.
Combine flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt
in small bowl. Beat butter, granulated sugar, brown
sugar and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl until
creamy. Beat in eggs; gradually beat in flour mixture.
Stir in oats, Raisinets and nuts. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets. For smaller
cookies, use a level tablespoon. This yields about 4
1/2 dozen cookies.
Bake for 9 to 11 minutes. Cool on baking sheets for
2 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.
No Warning No Mercy

Gwen Rickman
By Walt Caldwell
Mountain Echo editor
Gwen Rickman and
her husband Rick are no
strangers to prison life.
Both spent a number of
years working in the system before their retirement. Because of this No
Warning - No Mercy has
a style and air of confidence about it that, even
though fictional, puts the
reader inside the prison
walls and minds of those
involved. A riveting plot,
not one you’d want to
read alone at midnight.
As the close of the
prologue demonstrates,
it isn’t a book for the
squeamish. Written on
the living room wall, in
the family’s blood, was
the final coupe-de-grace,
“Debt paid in full, mother F_____.”
The story is about
Correctional
Captain
“Mac” Makey and Cor-
rectional Officer Carlos
Vega, the prison, prison
gangs, and payback.
Rickman
carefully
builds her characters,
setting and plot, from
Carlos Vega, a womanizing family man with
a big ego to a number
of others including the
Makey and Vega wives
and children, inmate
Raymond Ortiz who
heads the Surenos gang
in the prison and a host
of others.
Rickman takes the
readers inside the prison
and exposes the day to
day routines, the cold
blooded
relationships,
manipulation, set ups,
ruefulness, revenge, pay
backs criminal activity,
while building her plot
to a nail-biting climax.
Tips For Making Your Home Senior Friendly
(StatePoint) More seniors than ever before
are living healthy independent lives well into
their golden years. And
a vast majority want to
remain in their homes as
long as possible, according to the National Aging
in Place Council.
However, most houses
were not built to adapt to
our changing needs as
we age.
“The good news is
there are many simple
ways to make a home
more functional for your
needs as you age,” says
Shannon Sims, marketing
communications
manager for ThermaTru Corp.
By 2030, Americans 65
and older will make up
20 percent of the population. For those wishing
to make aging-in-place
easier, there are several
things to consider.
De-clutter Rooms
Eliminate clutter that
could get in your way,
such as planters and
small console tables.
Pay attention to area
rugs and other tripping
hazards. And if you have
wood floors and carpeting, install transition
strips where they adjoin.
Evaluate Your Entryway
To ideally accommodate a wheelchair,
the doorway to your
home should be at least
32-inches wide. Even
without a wheelchair,
a wider opening can be
beneficial when entering
and exiting.
There are different
doors you can install to
meet your mobility needs
and personal style. For
example,
Therma-Tru
offers 42-inch wide entry
doors in its Classic-Craft
Rustic Collection and
Classic-Craft Oak Collection, to allow for easier
access and for dramatic
and elegant curb appeal.
Also consider how the
door swings. A door that
swings in may be easier to operate than one
swinging out. A remodeling contractor can help
determine what your
home can accommodate
structurally, provide recommendations for styles
and handle installation.
Tweak Bathrooms and
Kitchens
Lowering
countertops in your kitchen
and bathroom can make
using them easier. And
consider grab-bars for
showers and bathtubs.
For their part, curbless
showers and bathtubs
with entrances that open
can reduce the possibility of falling.
Get a Grip
According to the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention, 67 million adults will have
doctor-diagnosed
arthritis by the year 2030.
For them, just turning
a doorknob can be painfully difficult. Consider
installing
lever-style
handles
on
exterior
and interior doors. And
choose ones with a multipoint locking system for
ease of opening, such as
those from Therma-Tru,
which also provide greater security and stability.
“Making life easier
can be as simple as
choosing
low-maintenance entry doors with
easy-to-use levers instead of doorknobs. Or,
to allow more fresh air
and light into the home,
a homeowner can request Vented Sidelites
on their doors that swing
open easily on hinges,”
says Sims.
Upgrade Patio Doors
Patio doors tend to
receive more traffic than
front doors. If your patio door is due for an
upgrade, you can choose
the classic elegance of
a hinged door or the
modern convenience of
a sliding door. Both are
available in two-, threeor four-panel configurations to ensure a wide

Big Valley is in
Westwood Wednesday
for a non-league game,
then opens League season on the road in
Dunsmuir on Friday.
A Sacramento high school girls team lost a
recent game by the verrrrrry lopsided score of
105-2. That’s not a typo - 105 to two.
The Johnson warriors lost the game - their
fourth without a win this season, and both coaches agree that the winning Florin team did NOT
run up the score.
Johnson coach, Jeanie Huizar is quoted in the
Sacramento Bee as saying her players didn’t
want to quit when it was 69-0 at halftime and didn’t want pity from their opponent, and they are
eager for their next game. Personally I’d have
been looking forward to the next game after the
first two minutes of that tilt.
Johnson is not a small high school, so why so
poor at basketball?
Apparently none of the girls have any basketball experience, and are learning to dribble with
one hand and learning to block out and other fundamentals of the game all under game situations.
Here’s the kicker - 30 girls signed up for the
team, but only 12 were able to make grades.
Since then, four more have dropped out because
of poor grades. To this ol’ guy, this is just a sad
commentary on what’s wrong today. When I was
a kid (now I’m sounding like my parents - ugh!) if
I came home with poor grades I wouldn’t be able
to sit down for a week, nor would I be allowed to
leave the house - except to go to school.
It is not that difficult to make a ‘C’ average. It
takes a little work, but not difficult.
Now back to the idea that Florin didn’t run up
the score. Excuse me, but scoring 105 points
against any team means your squad had to go all
out all the time from tip-off to buzzer. A truly good
coach would have seen it was time to practice
your passing game and use the shot clock to
slow down the debacle. To continue to blaze
away in a score-at-will manner just doesn’t make
sense. Oh, and the two Warrior points came as
free throws. I congratulate the eight girls who’ve
kept their grades high enough to remain on the
Johnson Warrior’s team, and wish them the best
of luck.
In other items gleaned from the internet
this week...
• The Intermountain Area is having Springtime
in Winter right now. Gorgeous warm days and
frigid nights. Many are lamenting the lack of
snow. For those who want snow, consider moving to Cordova, Alaska. Cordova is a small fishing village that is used to snow, but is literally
buried in the white stuff after 18 feet fell this past
week. That’s correct - not another typo Eighteen Feet of Snow!
Roofs have collapsed, and many are trapped
inside their homes because they can’t get out
their doors.
I love snow, but even this is a bit too much for
my liking... after all, you can’t build a snowman if
you can’t get outside.
• Here’s an item you can file under the
“Huh???” file folder.
One Jeffrey Drew Wilschke was arrested in
Madison, Wisconsin, earlier this year. He was
again arrested this past week. Apparently he
legally changed his name in between the two
arrests...
His new name - and I’m not making this up Beezow Doo-Doo Zopittybop Bop-Bop. Go figure. Do you call him Mr. Zopittybob Bop-Bop or
just Mr. Bop-Bop? Personally, I don’t really care
to know. Can we just call him ‘idiot’ for short?
• 49er Fever is once again gripping northern
California, as our beloved team is finally back in
the playoffs. They host New Orleans this weekend, and no matter how die-hard you are, you
have to be a bit worried.
Another miracle finish for Tebow fans in
Denver, with their 29-23 overtime win Sunday
evening.
Personally I think any team will have trouble
downing the Green Bay Packers - huh, Dakota??

Injuries plague Lady Cardinals
BIEBER - The one
thing the Lady Cards
can’t afford is injuries with a limited number
of players on the squad.
But injuries did plague
them this past week, as
their tilt in Hayfork on
Tuesday was cancelled
when Rebecca Barnett’s
torn calf muscle (coupled
with
Hailey
Stevenson’s
injured
ankle) left not enough
players to field a team.
They did manage to
get a team together on
Friday for their season
home opener against
Mt. Shasta, but came up
short in the scoring
department.
“I had to make a
tough decision for the
future of the varsity
program this week,”
noted
coach
Norm
Stevenson, “either to
not play the Mt. Shasta
game or move a JV player up. I knew that I had
to have a player who
could play the front
court as well as the back
court.”
He continued, “I
made the decision to
move Erica Stevenson
up hoping to utilize her
size inside as well as her
dribbling and passing
abilities.
One more
injury and we’ll be
forced to combine the
two teams.”
Big Valley came up
short to the Lady Bears
Friday, 36-66, “a very
