Potter Valley shooting critically injures 1 

Witness says shooting caused 

by act of ‘Russian Roulette’ 


A 46-year-old man from Sacramento was 

shot in the head Wednesday afternoon in a 

remote area of Potter Valley near the Lake 

County line during what a witness identified 

as an act of “Russian Roulette.” 

A Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office news 

release stated that Raymond Harold Gage, 

who was airlifted by REACH to an out-ofcounty 

hospital, is not expected to survive the 

shooting. He was in “grave” condition at press 

time. 

According to the MCSO, Gage had already 

been airlifted from the location when sheriff’s 

deputies arrived. Deputies were able to talk to 

a man who said he was a friend of Gage and 

an eyewitness to the shooting. 

The friend said Gage had been staying with 

him for about three weeks at the man’s property. 

Gage was helping his friend build a structure, 

the MCSO stated. 

The press release stated that Gage carried a

The world briefly 

Palin blames ‘Obama-Biden Democrats’ 

for spreading ‘flat-out lies’ about her 

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Republican vice presidential candidate 

Sarah Palin on Thursday blamed supporters of the 

Democratic presidential ticket for spreading “misinformation 

and flat-out lies” about her and her family. 

But her spokeswoman said Obama’s campaign was not 

responsible, even though a Palin fundraising letter named the 

Democratic ticket with the words: “the Obama-Biden 

Democrats have been vicious in their attacks directed toward 

me, my family and John McCain.” 

The Obama campaign has raised questions about Palin’s 

qualifications based on her six years as mayor of Wasilla, 

Alaska, and less than two years as governor, but Obama himself 

has said her family should be off-limits. He also said he 

would fire any staffer who talks about it. 

Palin spokeswoman Maria Comella said: “We appreciate the 

fact that he came out and condemned this kind of personal 

attack.” Asked whether Palin thought Obama or his running 

mate, Delaware Sen. Joe Biden, were personally responsible for 

the attacks mentioned in the letter, Comella said, “No.” 

McCain to accept GOP nomination in 

convention finale on ‘town hall’ stage 

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — John McCain, a Vietnam POW 

turned political rebel, launched his fall campaign for the White 

House on Thursday in the final act of a Republican National 

Convention marked by extraordinary attention on running mate 

Sarah Palin. 

McCain, 72 and hoping to become the oldest first-term president 

in history, faced a delicate assignment: presenting his credentials 

as a reformer willing to take on his own party and 

stressing his independence from an unpopular President Bush 

— all without breaking faith with his Republican base. 

Aides suggested he also would trace his career in public service 

— including more than five years as a Vietnam prisoner of 

war — while drawing stark differences with Democratic candidate 

Barack Obama. Among the conflicts: McCain deems the 

Iraq war essential to American interests, while Obama has 

called for a troop withdrawal. McCain and Palin arranged to 

depart their convention city immediately after the Arizona senator’s 

acceptance speech to fly to Wisconsin for an early start 

on the final weeks of the White House campaign. 

Southeastern states brace for Hanna as 

planners cast wary eye to Hurricane Ike 

WILMINGTON, N.C. (AP) — Some Southeastern states 

declared emergencies and officials urged residents to head 

inland Thursday as Tropical Storm Hanna headed toward the 

Atlantic coast, where it could bring high winds and rain from 

South Carolina all the way to Maine. 

Meanwhile, disaster planners cast a wary eye to a suddenly 

ferocious-looking Hurricane Ike strengthening in the Atlantic. 

And with power outages and other problems from Hurricane 

Gustav still lingering in Louisiana, Arkansas and Mississippi, 

the Federal Emergency Management Agency and other relief 

groups found themselves juggling responses to three storms. 

Rain and wind from Hanna could start as early as Friday 

night in the South, where some residents shuttered houses and 

stocked up on food and sandbags, coastal parks closed and 

schools canceled events and changed sports schedules. Watches 

and warnings were issued from Georgia to near Atlantic City, 

N.J. Officials did not order people from their homes in advance 

of the storm, which was expected to make landfall early 

Saturday. Forecasters said it was expected to strengthen only 

slightly, though it still could become a hurricane. 

The governors of Virginia and North Carolina declared states 

of emergency, freeing up state resources for storm response. 

South Carolina opened several emergency shelters and restricted 

port hours and Gov. Mark Sanford urged people to leave 

flood-prone areas and mobile homes in two northern counties 

by Friday afternoon.

our local economy. For some 

insights I spoke with Yolanda 

Lopez, a case manager at the 

Mendocino Private Industry 

Council. Yolanda and her coworkers 

occasionally use the 

Community Foundation’s 

Angel Fund to assist their 

clients, and I know they are 

seeing first-hand how the 

economy is affecting people 

in our county. 

Yolanda comes to MPIC 

from the private sector where 

she worked for AT&T for thirty-two 

years. Her “retirement” 

was short lived. “I 

made an effort to stay retired,” 

she told me. “I took an 

accounting class, adopted 

Chihuahua puppies, and made 

Christmas tamales with my 

mother. But when all was said 

and done, I missed the routine 

of work.” 

Yolanda explained how 

MPIC operates. It is federally 

funded through the Workforce 

Investment Act, with the purpose 

of helping people to find 

jobs. MPIC employees work 

closely with the career technical 

education programs, such 

as ROP, and with the local 

community colleges. Some of 

the more common 

training/educational programs 

include medical and dental 

assistant, phlebotomist, nurse 

(RN and LVN) and truck dri-

ver. “One of the biggest obstacles, 

especially for our older 

clients, is keeping up with 

advances in technology,” she 

told me. “We often help them 

upgrade their computer skills. 

Once the client has completed 

the training, MPIC also assists 

with the job search process.” 

The changes in the economy 

have had an impact on 

MPIC and its clients. Yolanda 

told me the resource room 

where the job search computers 

are located have been very 

full lately. “Sometimes there 

is standing room only with 

people waiting for computers. 

The emergency extension of 

unemployment benefits has 

helped. It used to be it would 

take people four to six months 

to find a job. Lately, that has 

increased to eight or ten 

months.”

Reflections of a Barefoot Artist 

Bringing healing, self-empowerment 

and social change through the arts 

By DAVID SMITH-FERRI 

Special for the Journal 

Too often, news coverage of world 

events fails to portray the possibilities 

for creative solutions to pressing problems, 

especially problems of poverty 

and violence. 

We long for opportunities to hear 

from people who are involved in effective, 

hands-on projects within communities 

that seek such solutions. 

Here in the Ukiah Valley, we have 

this opportunity when Dr. Lily Yeh 

speaks at 7:30 p.m. this Saturday, at the 

Buddha Hall at the City of Ten 

Thousand Buddhas (2001 Talmage 

Road, Talmage). 

Yeh is an artist. Twenty years of 

experience working with people to revitalize 

dilapidated communities in northern 

Philadelphia and other U.S. cities 

taught her that creativity and beauty are 

powerful tools to bring on healing and 

change. 

Now, through Barefoot Artists, Inc.

COMMUNITY BRIEFS 

Foster parents sought 

for Multidimensional 

Treatment Foster Care Program 

Redwood Children’s Services is seeking foster parents for 

the new Multidimensional Treatment Foster Care program 

which provides intensive treatment and close supervision for 

troubled teens 12 to 18 years of age who have emotional and 

behavioral challenges. In the context of loving and stable 

homes children learn new ways of behavior that are acceptable 

in school and the community. They learn what it feels like to 

succeed. 

Foster parents will receive training in a structured behavioral 

management system that can teach youth how to make better 

choices when dealing with the challenges of growing up today. 

The program goals are to provide close supervision, clear consistent 

limits to behavior and fair consequences using a points 

and level system of earning privileges. 

The foster parents will attend weekly support meetings and 

have the support of staff 24/7 to insure that the youth is making 

progress toward family unification. This is a short term commitment 

to one youth for 7 to 9 months and requires one parent 

be available for transportation, meetings and other program 

requirements during the day. 

This program provides a tax exempt stipend of $2,500 per 

month due to the level of training and supervision required. 

This new program offers caring adults the opportunity to 

become part of a professional team making a difference it the 

life of a teen from the community. Call Foster Parent Recruiter, 

Susan Boling, at 467-2000 for more specific program information.

health care clinic on Sept. 14 

The Tzu Chi Foundation will provide free medical service on 

Sunday, Sept. 14, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., at the Ukiah Senior 

Center, in Ukiah. The services will include dental, chiropractic, 

Western and Oriental procedures, blood sugar and blood pressure 

tests. They ask that those who wish to have their blood 

sugar tested not eat for 8 hours before they go to the test. 

The foundation can only provide certain services and treatments. 

All procedures are free, provided by volunteers. For

she founded, she works with impoverished 

or war-torn communities around 

the globe, in countries which include 

Rwanda, Democratic Republic of 

Congo, Kenya, Ivory Coast, Republic of 

Georgia, Taiwan, China, Syria and 

Ecuador. Barefoot Artists aims to train 

and empower local residents, organize 

communities, and take action for a more 

compassionate, just, and sustainable 

future. 

It brings the transformative power of 

art to the most impoverished communities 

in the world through participatory 

and multifaceted projects that foster 

community empowerment, improve the 

physical environment, promote economic 

development, and preserve and promote 

indigenous art and culture. 

Barefoot Artists develops projects in 

collaboration with individuals and/or 

agencies on the ground in identified 

communities. 

Art in this context becomes a vehicle 

for amplifying and coordinating existing 

efforts through projects that inspire indi- 

viduals and physically transform communities. 

The collective process used in these 

projects fosters a sense community pride 

while allowing participants to experience 

a sense of individual accomplishment. 

While Barefoot Artists draws inspiration 

from world art and culture, each 

project is tailored to the unique needs 

and characteristics of that community. 

When possible, Barefoot Artists incorporates 

local artists and craftspeople into 

its projects. Moreover, Barefoot Artists 

aims to develop markets for locally produced 

and fairly traded crafts. 

Barefoot Artists recognizes the power 

of art, image-making and narrative stories 

to move and educate people. 

Therefore each Barefoot Artists project 

is carefully documented and distributed 

as broadly as possible through the internet, 

publications, speaking engagements, 

and video. For more information about

Circus not fun for animals 

To the Editor: 

The Carson & Barnes circus travels to 

180 to 200 towns each year. The animals 

who travel with them spend their lives in 

cages or on chains, and are taught to perform 

by using bullhooks and electric cattle 

prods. For intelligent, emotionally complex 

animals with highly developed social 

natures, it’s a life of great hardship 

endured for the purpose of an hour’s entertainment 

for people who have no idea 

what really happens behind the scenes. 

Carson & Barnes have failed repeatedly 

to meet minimal federal standards for the 

care of animals used in exhibition as 

established in the Animal Welfare Act. The 

USDA has cited them for failure to provide 

veterinary care and minimum space, 

for failure to provide shelter from the elements, 

for failure to provide transport 

trailers, for inadequate ventilation, for 

unsound fences and rusty animal cages, 

for giving their animals unclean water and 

for failure to keep animal care records. 

Please do not support these events.

I am a licensed animal health technician. 

I am a former chairman for the 

Animal Commission for San Francisco. I 

am a former inspector for the United 

States Department of Agriculture for 

Animal Welfare. I did inspect circuses and 

zoos. What was the last inspection of this 

circus on their home base and of the animals 

at least three different traveling sites? 

Has a veterinarian who is not part of the 

staff completed an inspection before 

allowing the circus to stop in our County 

of Mendocino? In the year 2008, we need 

to expect nothing less. The numbers of 

exotic animals left in the wild has been in 

rapid reduction for years. The quality of 

care of these exotic animals in captivity 

has not been up to the standards expected, 

with The San Francisco Zoo’s serious incident 

of last December showing how careless 

the care and safety with dangerous 

and rare animals has been. No circus with 

live animals anymore.

Lies do not 

promote democracy 


It is an incredible blow to our democracy 

when people like Jerome Robert Corsi, 

a controversial conservative author who 

wrote “The Obama Nation”can affect the 

outcome of elections with open lies and 

fabrications. Free speech is one thing; I 

understand that. But why there are no 

legal repercussions for deliberate outright 

lies is beyond me. That this man gets 

away with this is infuriating. I personally 

will do everything in my power to punish 

the publisher and anyone else associated 

with or contributing to this purely open 

attack against our democracy.

Take a closer look 


There was a gentleman a few weeks 

ago questioning why the Ukiah City 

Police use cell phones while driving, yet it 

is illegal. I went on another ride-along 

with the Ukiah Police Department last 

week. While they are driving, they are 

watching for people breaking the law, 

looking for wanted people, monitoring the 

Sheriff’s Department, the Police 

Department, the CHP and at the same 

time, talking to another officer about 

something that they may not want to put 

over the radio. I would suggest that that 

gentleman go on a ride along with the 

Police Department and he would find out 

what really goes on during a shift. We 

have a pretty darn good Police Department 

and are lucky we have them.

Prop. 11 

looking good 

The Monterey 

County Herald 

If you are following the 

current train wreck of a budget 

process in Sacramento, 

you may be looking forward 

to November and your 

opportunity to toss the bums 

out of office. 

Sorry to be the spoilsport, 

but you can forget about it. 

There may be plenty of 

bums ripe for tossing, but 

they're either not on the 

November ballot or they're 

such lopsided favorites that 

they stand almost no chance 

of actually being tossed. 

Though it is a big, general 

election, there are a only 

handful of open legislative 

seats up for grabs in 

November and none of the 

incumbents on the ballot 

faces any more than token 

opposition. 

For an example of how it 

works, look no further than 

the 27th Assembly District, 

which includes the liberal 

west sides of Monterey and 

Santa Cruz counties. 

When Democrat Bill 

Monning won his party's 

nomination in the 27th in 

June, his victory in 

November was all but guaranteed. 

To assess how safe 

the district is for a 

Democrat, here's a little 

quiz. Can you name his 

Republican opponent? 

Didn't think so. (Robert 

Murray).

From around the nation 

Caballero, D-Salinas? 

Unopposed. 

It is largely the result of 

gerrymandering, the process 

by which seated politicians 

and their parties draw legislative 

boundaries in a way 

that ensures that incumbents, 

especially those of the 

dominant party, remain in 

office as long as possible. 

So what does this have to 

do with the budget mess? 

Simply this. The Democrats 

and Republicans who have 

shown themselves incapable 

of making any of the tough 

decisions to craft a budget 

this year are in virtually no 

danger of being held 

accountable because they 

have a lock on re-election, 

no matter how severely they 

mangle state finances. 

At times like this, the 

governor and others give 

heavy lip service to the need 

for budget reform, and they 

are partly right. California's 

budgeting process is almost 

entirely political, not at all 

professional. 

The requirement that a 

budget receive approval 

from two-thirds of the legislators 

almost guarantees 

budgetary paralysis whenever 

deficits loom. 

Combine all the factors 

and Republican legislators 

can get away with irresponsible 

grandstanding, signing 

pledges not to support any 

tax increases even though 

they have been unable to 

make any practical suggestions 

on where to cut spending 

instead. 

But the need for reform is 

almost as obvious in the 

arena of redistricting. Which 

is why Proposition 11 on the 

WHERE TO WRITE

November ballot is looking 

like a better and better idea. 

Proposition 11 is the work of 

groups such as the League 

of Women Voters and 

AARP. It would take boundary-drawing 

power away 

from the politicos and give it 

to an independent citizens 

commission. 

It is, most likely, an 

imperfect alternative. But, at 

first blush, at least, it seems 

preferable to the system that 

is threatening to make legislative 

elections, and perhaps 

even the Legislature, 

irrelevant. 

Gov. Arnold 

Schwarzenegger is supporting 

Proposition 11 because 

he understands the role gerrymandering 

has played in 

the budget mess. Just as significantly, 

the opposition is 

being led by Sen. Don 

Perata, the termed-out 

Oakland Democrat. 

The Sacramento Bee 

reported this week that the 

correctional officers union 

has donated $577,000 to a 

Perata fund that will be used 

to combat Proposition 11. 

The union, of course, has 

spent years and millions 

helping to build a 

Legislature to its liking. It 

has much to fear from a 

more logical approach. 

Is this an endorsement for 

Proposition 11? Not quite. 

The measure's weaknesses 

have not yet been fully balanced 

against its strengths. 

But it is a call for those who 

want professional governance 

in California to keep 

an eye out for connections 

and motives that may not be 

obvious when Perata and the 

other pols start attacking it.

From the desk of ... 

John McCain, who is in what Macbeth called “the 

sear, the yellow leaf” of life, has revived an oldie from 

seven elections ago with a campaign commercial 

asserting: “We’re worse off than we were four years 

ago.” This, of course, derives from Ronald Reagan’s 

question, addressed to the nation with devastating 

effect on his opponent, during Reagan’s debate with 

President Jimmy Carter in 1980. 

The nation considered the answer obvious. Reeling 

from oil shocks worse than today’s, with 52 U.S. 

hostages in Tehran and with the Soviet Union rampant 

in Afghanistan, voters resoundingly said “no.” Today 

we know that the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan hastened 

the collapse of the Evil Empire, so some things 

that seem to make us worse off are not unmixed curses. 

Imitation is the sincerest form of politics and in 

1996 President Bill Clinton, seeking re-election, urged 

voters to ask themselves whether they were better off 

than they were four years earlier. Today we know that 

the nation’s affirmative answer reflected the beguiling 

beginning of what turned out to be the tech stock bubble, 

so some things that seem to make us better off are 

not unmixed blessings. 

McCain recasts Reagan’s question as an assertion in 

order to pander to the public’s dyspepsia and distance 

himself from George Bush. Enough. 

In contemporary politics, nothing succeeds like 

excess, so permutations of Reagan’s trope are going to 

recur. Therefore, it is time to consider its deficiencies, 

which are symptomatic of a desiccated mentality. 

Unfortunately, the phrase “better off” is generally 

understood as a reference to your salary, your bank 

balance, your IRA and the like. But wait. Are you better 

off being four years older? That depends. 

If you are young, since 2004 you might have found 

romance, had children, learned to fly-fish and become 

a Tampa Bay Rays fan. In which case you emphatically 

are better off, even if since 2004 there has been only 

a 0.6 percent increase -- yes, increase -- in the median 

value of single-family homes. 

If you are near “the sear, the yellow leaf” of life, in 

the last four years your expected remaining years of 

life have declined. But that does not mean you cannot 

be better off. 

Suppose in those years you read “Middlemarch,” 

rediscovered Fred Astaire’s movies, took up fly-fishing, 

saw Chartres and acquired grandchildren. Even if 

the value of your stock portfolio is down since 2004 

(the Dow actually is up), are you not decidedly better 

off? 

The late Herb Stein, one of Washington’s wisest 

practitioners in the field of applied philosophy, aka 

economics, criticized the “are you better off” question 

by noting that “everyone has a certain asset, which is 

the present value of his expected future life.” But “all 

years are not alike.” The years that come later in life 

can have special richness because one has learned 

things that enable one to appreciate each year more. 

Stein noted that the question about being “better 

off” is thought to be about facts rather than feelings. 

But feelings are facts. Facts such as delight, serenity 

and gratitude have values not easily priced in cash. 

The people asking and those answering the “better 

off” question seem to assume that the only facts that 

matter are those that can be expressed as economic statistics. 

Statistics are fine as far as they go, but they do 

not go very far in measuring life as actually lived. 

We do, unfortunately, live, as Edmund Burke 

lamented, in an age of “economists and calculators” 

who are eager to reduce all things to the dust of numeracy, 

neglecting what Burke called “the decent drapery 

of life.” In this supposedly rational and scientific age, 

the thirst for simple metrics seduces people into a preoccupation 

with things that lend themselves to quantification. 

Self-consciously “modern” people have an urge to 

reduce assessments of their lives to things that can be 

presented in tables, charts and graphs -- personal and 

national economic statistics. This sharpens their minds 

by narrowing them. Such people might as well measure 

out their lives in coffee spoons. 

In 1934, long before mankind strode jauntily into 

what it contentedly calls “the information age,” T.S. 

Eliot asked: 

Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge? 

Where is the knowledge we have lost in information? 

So, are you better off than you were four years ago? 

That depends. On what? That, too, depends.

The Community 

Foundation’s Angel Fund is 

used by MPIC Case Workers 

for clients who need a little 

assistance to help them with 

their new employment. 

Recently a woman had just 

graduated from an LVN program 

and was waiting for her 

license in order to begin work. 

Due to bureaucratic problems 

beyond her control, she had to 

wait eight weeks to get her the 

license that would allow her to 

begin her new job. The Angel 

Fund helped to bridge the 

financial gap during this period. 

The Angel Fund has also 

helped MPIC clients who 

needed to buy work clothes or 

to get their automobiles 

repaired in order to participate 

in training programs out of the 

area. 

“I like my work,” Yolanda 

told me. “It’s rewarding 

because you are able to help 

people. Sometimes you see 

people who have had everything 

go wrong for them. I am 

a good listener and can sense 

when one of my clients is 

close to breaking down. I 

know that psychologically 

they can’t take one more setback. 

That is when it is good 

to have a resource like the 

Community Foundation’s 

Angel Fund that can provide 

the small assistance, but 

important encouragement, 

information, or to register to become a volunteer, 

call Laura Smith at the Lake Mendocino 

park office at 467-4232. 

Grateful Gleaners organizing 

local produce trading 

The Grateful Gleaners are inviting local 

community members to join them in sharing 

cherries, berries or other fruit that may be 

ripening in home orchards that is available to 

be shared. For more information, call them at 

459-5490, ext. 555, and leave a message. 

USC to present info about the 

local 911 Dispatch on Friday 

Ukiah Senior Center will present the next in 

their series of free health talks on Friday, with 

Greg Blake, communications supervisor at the 

Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office. The discussion 

will take place from 1 to 2 p.m., and 

will cover the following topics: 

• Who is responsible for keeping address 

and telephone information correct and up to 

date? 

• Who answers 911 calls and where are they 

located? 

• What is the history of 911? 

• What information is a dispatcher receiving 

when calling 911? Both on a cell phone and 

hard line telephone. 

• How many Public Safety Dispatch Centers 

(PSAPs) are in Mendocino County? 

• How do they work together? 

• Why do dispatchers ask certain questions? 

• How many Emergency Service Providers 

work with 911, including Police, Sheriff, 

Ambulance, Fire, Social Services, Search and 

Rescue, and Hospitals? 

• What is Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) 

and how does it work with 911? 

• What changes are ahead for 911 (voip, texting, 

pictures, videos). 

In this hour, Greg Blake will answer these 

questions. There will be a period designed for 

an open discussion and any questions that he 

can answer. There is no charge for the presentation, 

which is open to the public. Drawings 

will be held for $5 cash, and for a ticket to the 

Ice Cream Social at the Center for those who 

attend this talk. For more information, call 

Betty McGlade, Coordinator of the Health and 

Education Series, at 467-0960. 

Literacy tutors sought

will be trained and furnished with the 

tools they will need. Those interested in volunteering 

are invited to attend a tutor training orientation, 

scheduled for 3 to 5 p.m. on 

Wednesday, Sept. 24, in the Willits Library 

conference room. 

A basic tutor training workshop will take

USC to present a discussion 

on hospice programs Sept. 12 

The Ukiah Senior Center will present a discussion 

entitled “What is the Hospice 

Program?” on Friday, Sept. 12, from 1 to 2

Did you want the berry sauce 

on that pizza? or tomato day 

We are passing the midway 

point in the local tomato 

season. 

If you were not aware that 

tomato season is zooming 

past your doorstep, you need 

to get to your local farmers’ 

market more often. At tomorrow’s 

market we celebrate the 

healthy, tasty and, some 

might even say, sexy tomato 

with a tasting. 

Tomatoes are indeed 

loaded with healthy things. A 

single, fresh medium red 

tomato provides about 32 

percent of the recommended 

daily value of vitamin C, plus 

25 percent of vitamin A, 15 

percent of vitamin K, 10 percent 

of potassium, 7 percent 

of fiber and 6 percent of vitamin 

B6. 

Tomatoes are also particularly 

rich in the phytonutrient 

lycopene, which studies suggest 

may help protect us from 

a wide range of cancers and 

reduce the risk of heart 

attack. You get more 

lycopene from your tomatoes 

when they are cooked, which 

provides a nice cover story 

for that occasional slice of 

pizza. 

Botanically the tomato is a 

fruit. Indeed, it is a berry. 

However, in resolving litigation 

about the Tariff Act of 

1883, which imposed a fee 

on vegetables but not fruits, 

the U.S. Supreme Court 

decreed that legislative intent 

and common usage justified 

declaring the tomato a vegetable 

for the purpose of 

imposing fees under the tariff. 

In Arkansas, the tomato is 

both the state fruit and the 

state vegetable. See how 

accommodating the tomato 

can be? It is also the weapon 

of choice in the world’s 

largest food fight, La 

Tomatina. 

It is reported that there are 

around 7,500 varieties of 

tomato. We don’t have all of 

them at the Ukiah farmer’s 

market. But, we have quite a 

few. 

Tomorrow, you should find 

the following twelve local 

farms offering fresh local 

tomatoes: Calderas Farmers, 

Cinnamon Bear Farm, 

The Market Message 

By Scott Cratty 

Covelo Organics, Dear 

Meadow, Jake and the Bean 

Stock, Olivino, Ortiz 

Brothers, Phil Cool, Redtail 

Farms, Richard Johnson and 

Sky Hoyt Specialty Growers. 

Collectively, they plan to 

bring over 30 varieties such 

as: azoychka, beefsteak, better 

boys, big beef, black krim, 

black russian, black zebra, 

brandywine, caspian pink, 

celebrity, cherokee purple, 

costoluto genovese, early girl, 

early goliath, German strawberry, 

Juliet, La Rossa, matina, 

momotaro, nyagous, Old 

German, ild ivory egg, 

principe borghese, red roma, 

San Marzano, sun gold, 

striped German, sweet million, 

sweet 100 cherry, yellow 

bells, yellow pear and 

zapotec. 

We don’t have a prize if 

you collect them all, but you 

might just have fun anyway 

seeing how many you can 

find. Join us under the pavilion 

to try a few. Have I mentioned 

that there is no beating 

the variety at the farmer’s 

market? 

The more you support our 

local small farmers, the 

greater that variety will 

become over time and the 

easier it will become to preserve 

our agricultural land. 

That is why I am particularly 

pleased to be able to report 

yet another opportunity for 

you to support local yearround 

farmers markets. 

I previously noted that the 

Ukiah Saturday and Willits 

Thursday markets are planning 

to stay open year-round. 

I now understand that 

Anderson Valley will also 

have a year-round market. 

The Grange Mart will be 

located at the Philo Grange 

on Sundays from noon to 2 

p.m. It will be run as a 

fundraiser for the Grange. 

Once you have tried the 

tomatoes, there are some 

other great events to check 

out at tomorrow’s market. 

• For the first time back 

this season we will have 

award winning fiddle and 

violinist Laura Smith performing 

in the pavilion. 

• A County of Mendocino 

water resource specialist will 

provide conservation and 

other water wise information. 

• The Discovery World 

Preschool teachers are back 

with another 10 a.m. story 

time session for children (it 

was great to see all the kids 

at last Saturday’s A Child, A 

Dog & A Good Book reading!). 

• Our sponsor, the Ukiah 

Natural Foods Co-op will 

have a table at the market 

with lots of great information 

for you. 

• We will also be conducting 

a customer opinion survey. 

Look for Erica with the 

flip charts somewhere in market 

row on School Street and 

please help the market by 

sharing your opinions about 

how we might improve. 

Next week is the annual 

Fabulous Flashback Car 

Show. 

That and the Pumpkin 

Festival are the two events 

each year for which the market 

relocates. However, we 

will only pivot one block 

West onto Clay Street, 

between School and Oak. 

There is no excuse for missing 

us. 

Certified farmer’s markets 

are in Ukiah from 8:30 a.m. 

to noon Saturday and 3 to 6 

p.m. Tuesday on School 

Street at Clay Street and in 

Alex Thomas Plaza and in 

Redwood Valley on Sunday 

from 9:30 a.m to 1 p.m. at 

8920 East Road in Lion’s 

Park.

event is sponsored by the 

Seabiscuit Heritage 

Foundation and Willits 

Chamber of Commerce. 

Berg and a handful of volunteers 

are rescuing and providing 

care for injured and 

retired thoroughbreds so that 

they may recover and return 

to riding soundness, just as 

Seabiscuit once did under his 

trainer Tom Smith. Tom 

Smith’s nephew James 

Watkins along with his wife 

Lucy are both avid supporters 

of GEVA and help provide 

sponsorships for individual 

retired horses. GEVA was 

founded to provide homes for 

injured, retired, and abused 

horses, or horses just in need 

of a home. 

Representing the 

Seabiscuit Heritage 

Foundation will be Jacqueline 

Cooper, owner and breeder of 

American Legend Horse Farm 

which is working to preserve 

the Seabiscuit bloodline at 

Ridgewood and the President 

of the foundation Tracy 

Livingston. Seabiscuit 

Heritage Foundation is a 501 

(c) (3) nonprofit organization 

formed to promote the cultural 

legacy of the Ridgewood 

Ranch through historic preservation, 

environmental conservation 

and public education. 

Nestled in the oak and redwood-studded 

ranchlands and 

mountains of northern 

California, Ridgewood Ranch 

was where Seabiscuit recovered 

after sustaining a suspensory 

ligament injury. His recuperation 

set the stage for an 

electrifying blaze-of-glory 

career finish at Santa Anita 

Park that captivated 

Depression-era America. 

Owner Charles Howard was 

also one of the original 

investors of Santa Anita Park. 

Washoe Valley Sal, a 

Seabiscuit descendant, will 

also be making an appearance 

at Ridgewood. “We are very 

happy to support Pam Berg in 

her rescue efforts.” said 

Cooper who purchased a stallion 

season for Sea of Secrets 

donated by Ballena Vista 

Farm to benefit Glen Ellen 

Vocational Academy earlier 

this year. Ballena Vista Farm 

is a full service Thoroughbred 

breeding operation located in 

Ramona. Washoe Valley Sal 

was bred to Sea of Secrets and 

recently returned home to 

Ridgewood where her famous 

ancestor once trod. The resulting 

foal due in April will be 

the first of the Biscuit line 

born at the historic Howard 

mare barn once part of the 

Howard’s first class 

Thoroughbred breeding operation 

in over 50 years. 

“Sally is very special to us. 

We lost our other Tb broodmare 

descending from 

Seabiscuit last fall. She along 

with our yearling filly Bronze 

Sea are continuing an important 

line. Col. Michael 

Howard USMC (Ret), the 

Great Grandson of Charles 

Howard, along with his mother 

Barbara were most pleased 

at their last visit of 

Ridgewood Ranch. Barbara 

mentioned Marcela Howard 

would have been thrilled with 

our preservation efforts.” said 

Cooper. “We anxiously await 


the arrival of our newest next 

Spring. Eventually we hope to 

have one of our Lil’Biscuit’s 

racing in support of the 

[Seabiscuit Heritage] foundation.” 

“I think you will be very 

happy with the baby Sea of 

Secrets and Sally produce.” 

said Vicki Rasmussen, Office 

Manager at Ballena Vista 

Farm. Sea of Secrets (Storm 

Cat-Love From Mom, by Mr. 

Prospector) is ranked Top-5 

California Sire by winners & 

SWs. 2007 Earnings of $2.7 

Million 5 SWs, 10 Stakes 

Horses in 2007, including Del 

Mar SW Seaside Affair. 

Cooper commented she is 

very pleased with the quality 

horse breeding practices and 

appreciates the conscientious 

and thorough broodmare care 

given to Washoe Valley Sal 

during her short stay at 

Ballena Vista Farm. “I believe 

it is important for mares to be 

contented, stress-free and be 

able to enjoy lazy days during 

the breeding season. Ballena 

Vista Farm is very peaceful 

and quiet, with a lot of sunshine 

and fresh air. Our equine 

campers are very happy here.” 

“I know that in this day and 

age it is hard to believe, especially 

at a farm having over 

200 horses at any given time,” 

adds Rasmussen, “but Farm 

Manager Manuel Ochoa provides 

care to each horse literally 

as if it were his own. He 

is simply an animal lover all 

the way around, and it shows. 

He takes personal pride in the 

way the horses look, feel and 

perform. No one has more 

heart than this farm, and 

Manuel.” 

“In fact,” adds Rasmussen, 

“he commented when Sally 

departed that she looked beautiful 

and was feeling that way, 

too! [Manuel] takes special 

pride in making sure that 

when we receive a horse from 

an owner such as yourself 

who takes great pride in their 

horses and really cares for 

them, that he returns the animal 

in a condition in which 

hewould want it returned to 

him if the shoe were on the 

other foot.” 

Sea of Secrets is one of 

many quality stallion seasons 

offered annually at online 

auction to benefit GEVA. 

Thoroughbred breeders are 

encouraged to check back 

online this fall for the 2009 

Auction. Yet another great 

roster of stallion seasons is 

anticipated. Donations for 

Glen Ellen Vocational 

Academy are also accepted 

and help provide feed, housing, 

and care for the horses of 

GEVA. For more information,

COMMUNITY 

Community reports 

Redwood Forest 

Foundation holds 

annual meeting 

On Aug. 1, the Redwood 

Forest Foundation held its 

11th annual Meeting in Fort 

Bragg. Board members, community 

partners, volunteers 

and friends convened at the 

Hawthorne Timber picnic 

grounds to review Foundation 

progress on forest management 

principles and the working 

community forest model. 

Former CEO of Harwood 

Products, Art Harwood, was 

named executive director of 

RFFI. As past President of 

Harwood Products, Harwood 

is uniquely qualified to help 

oversee the management of 

the 50,000 acre Usal 

Redwood Forest and lead the 

“community outreach” efforts 

that are central to RFFI’s mission 

of creating “working 

community forests” for the 

long-term benefit of the communities 

located in the 

Redwood Region. Harwood 

was an original founder of 

RFFI twelve years ago and 

has led the organization as 

President for the past eight 

years until stepping down to 

take the ED post this year. 

Three new board members 

were added to the RFFI team: 

Supervisor Kendall Smith, 

a 30 year resident of 

Mendocino County and just 

re-elected to another term on 

the Mendocino County Board 

of Supervisors. A long time 

friend and supporter of RFFI, 

she holds a number of seats on 

state and federal land and conservation 

committees. 

Joe Euphrat, a long time 

advisor to RFFI was instrumental 

in getting the organization 

started and in helping 

putting together the deal to 

purchase the Usal Redwood 

Forest. Euphrat is director of 

real estate for Kaufman Hall 

& Associates, the nations’s 

leading financial advisory 

firm to non profit hospitals 

and healthcare systems. 

Richard Gienger, a watershed 

restoration practitioner

DAILY JOURNAL 

Your Local 

Daily Newspaper! 

and forest & fisheries activist, 

recalls campfire discussions 

in 1979 about establishing 

community-based stewardship 

forestry in the Usal/South 

Fork Eel River area –- while 

engaged in stream surveys 

and modifying log jams in the 

northwest area of what is now 

the Usal Redwood Forest. 

Gienger is a long time RFFI 

supporter. 

They have joined existing 

board members Don Kemp, 

Greg Giusti, John Rogers, 

Kathy Moxen, Pete Mattson, 

Steve Smith and Candy 

Skarlatos. 

In the past year since the 

purchase of the Usal 

Redwood Forest, significant 

progress has been made working 

with RFFI’s property 

manager, The Campbell 

Group, in developing a management 

plan and undertaking 

restoration projects. In addition, 

RFFI is working to 

secure a conservation easement 

that would protect the 

property permanently from 

development and at the same 

time insure a sustainable flow 

of forest products that will 

benefit the local community 

in perpetuity -- a “working” 

community forest. 

RFFI founding member 

and retiring board member 

Henry Gundling was honored 

by having a tree named after 

him. The Redwood Forest 

Foundation would like to 

thank all of its past board 

members, advisory group 

members and supporters for 

making the purchase of the 

Usal Redwood Forest possible 

and look forward to expanding 

our network of friends as 

we take the next step in making 

the URF a community 

working forest and in looking 

for new acquisitions that will 

benefit the communities of the 

Redwood Region. To learn

William Morris give the girls a final spray before showtime. “This is their favorite 

time of the day,” he says of the elephants’ daily shower. 

Circus 


Earlier last week, People 

for the Ethical Treatment of 

Animals (PETA) asked Ukiah 

Mayor Doug Crane, Willits 

Mayor Holly Madrigal and 

Mendocino County Board of 

Supervisors Chairman Jim 

Wattenburger to “make this 

year’s Carson and Barnes visit 

the last time the elephants will 

have to endure the bite of a 

bullhook in Ukiah.” 

The bullhook, or ankus, is a 

tool used in the handling and 

training of elephants. It consists 

of a hook, usually bronze 

or steel, which is attached to a 

two- or three-foot handle. The 

hook is inserted into the elephant’s 

skin, either slightly or 

more deeply, to cause pain 

and induce the elephant to 

behave in a certain manner. 

Munsell said devices like 

the bullhook were used far 

more often in Asian countries. 

Also included in the package 

sent to local legislators is 

a DVD purportedly containing 

undercover footage from 

1999 of Tim Frisco, Carson 

and Barnes’ animal care director, 

“viciously attacking terrified 

elephants with sharp 

metal bullhooks and electric 

prods.” 

The video clip, which is 

also available on the PETAowned 

Web site circuses.com, 

.38 caliber revolver for protection 

in case he were to 

encounter a mountain lion. 

The friend reportedly told 

deputies he and Gage were 

taking a break from the heat 

purportedly shows elephants 

being prodded and beaten 

while apparently practicing 

routines in a large warehouse. 

“The video that they have, 

the USDA ruled that it was so 

spliced and shaky they couldn’t 

figure out what was going 

on,” Munsell said. “We had to 

pay a $400 fee to have (the 

USDA) look at it.” 

Munsell said the claims 

PETA made in the notices sent 

out ahead of the circus’ arrival 

were untrue. 

“We don’t use electric 

prods on any of our animals,” 

he said. “The bullhook is a 

guiding tool. A lot of times 

they can’t see where they are 

going. Usually, elephants 

respond to verbal commands. 

We have a little elephant 

named Val and if they want to 

take them to tub, they take 

them by the trunk and lead 

them. If anyone has any 

doubts they can come on 

down. Besides, who is going 

to abuse your livelihood?” 

Jennifer Seward, CEO of 

the fairgrounds, said she had 

full faith in the practices the 

circus employs with both its 

animals and the public. 

“We try to provide the 

community with interesting 

events,” she said. “The board 

believes we are an integral 

part of the community. This is 

the type of thing that builds 

community.” 

Munsell said the circus was 

inspected so often and by so 

about 3:30 p.m. Wednesday 

when for unknown reasons 

Gage started to play “Russian 

Roulette” with the loaded .38 

revolver. He was unresponsive 

when emergency personnel 

arrived. 

Gage’s friend used a cellular 

phone to summon help and 

provided first aid until medical 

personnel arrived, the 

many different agencies, 

including Mendocino County 

Animal Care and Control, that 

there should be no doubt as to 

the proper treatment of the 

animals. 

“Our animals are inspected 

almost every day by local, 

state and federal governments,” 

he said. “We have to 

carry their health records with 

us everywhere we go.” 

William Morris, a fourthgeneration 

elephant caretaker, 

said his charges are given 

ample time to rest between 

shows. 

“They are like people, they 

don’t mind working, but they 

do want to be taken care of,” 

he said. “They are smart like 

people. The elephants -- every 

three months they get a vacation. 

Everyone gets a vacation 

except the humans.” 

Morris said he doesn’t 

completely disagree with 

PETA’s stance on animal 

rights, but would like to see it 

take a different approach. 

“Unfortunately, there are 

bad people in every business,” 

he said. “We are on display 

24/7. We can’t hide. You can 

come out and watch us. I’m 

for a lot of things (PETA 

does.) Instead of trying to shut 

us down they should be more 

proactive and help us make 

sure there are no bad people. 

Nobody wants to see the animals 

get hurt or mistreated.”

A 72-year-old Citrus Heights man died 

Tuesday in a single-vehicle collision on 

Highway 101 near Myer’s Flat in Southern 

Humboldt County, according to a California 

Highway Patrol report. 

The Humboldt County Coroner’s Office 

said the man has been identified as James 

Aiello of Citrus Heights, who was driving a 

1998 Ford pickup. 

The CHP responded to an accident call at 

11:27 a.m. on Tuesday. Aiello is said to have 

the “Redwood Springs,” 

“Turner,” “Caspar,” and 

“Ocean” precincts who used 

to vote at the Caspar 

Community Center will now 

vote at the gardens. 

• Mendocino - Because 

voter registration has 

increased in the “Surfwood” 

precinct, those voters will 

now cast their ballots at Saint 

Anthony’s Parish Hall. 

• Covelo - A ballot drop-off 

station has been planned for 

the American Legion Hall, 

23900 Howard St. Those voters 

who wish to drop off their 

voted ballots in Covelo on 

Election Day from 7 a.m. to 8 

p.m. may do so at that location. 

Vote-by-mail envelopes 

will be available to voters who 

have misplaced their return 

envelopes. Blank ballots will 

not be available at this location 

because it is for drop-offs 

only. Voter registration cards 

will be available at this location. 

“Voter registration is still 

down in Covelo,” stated 

Ranochak. “Our largest 

precincts in the Covelo area 

are the ‘Nomlacki’ precinct 

with 208 registered voters and

The year ahead will be 

especially favorable in the 

romance department. The 

unattached could have more 

opportunities than usual for 

finding a special person, 

while married Virgo natives 

will be strengthening bonds 

with their spouses. 

ASTROGRAPH 

By Bernice Bede Osol 

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 

22) -- Chances are you’ll be 

the catalyst for some kind of 

pleasurable event with your 

friends. Get in touch with 

them early, so everyone has 

time to get work out of the 

way. 

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) 

-- Having mobility and independence 

could be more 

important than usual, mostly 

because you sense that, if you 

are free to do your own thing, 

something good can happen. 

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 

22) -- Conditions look particularly 

good with regard to 

your finances. Chances are 

you’ll make a great buy with 

either a purchase or an 

investment that will prove to 

be quite successful. 

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 

23-Dec. 21) -- You shouldn’t 

have any trouble favorably 

impressing others, because 

warmth and charm will be 

your best assets at this time. 

You won’t have to put on any 

airs; just be yourself. 

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-

instincts will be easily 

activated in response to the 

needs of others. When asked

Dear Annie: Please help me understand 

my 15-year-old child. We’ve always had a 

great mother-son relationship, and my husband 

and I did everything possible to give him 

a good education, spend time with him, read 

to him, play with him and love him to no end. 

Now he hardly speaks to us. He’s still a 

good boy, pleasant, fun, incredibly smart and 

dedicated to all his activities and school. But 

I feel terribly sad suddenly knowing nothing 

about his life. I know he is having problems 

with his girlfriend. I could really help him 

understand women, but he wants nothing 

from us. 

I know this is normal at his age, but will he 

ever again feel his parents have something to 

offer other than feeding him and putting him 

through college? I know things will never be 

the same, but is this something I just have to 

live with? Is there something I can do so he 

will value my opinions and listen to what I 

have to say? -- Sad Mom in Kansas 

Dear Kansas: Don’t panic. Your son is 

going through a perfectly natural and healthy 

stage of separating from his parents so he can 

become independent. As much as it hurts you, 

this is a good sign. Will he ever value your 

opinions again? You bet. 

Don’t lecture or badger him with questions, 

but make sure he knows you’re always available 

to listen. Just before bed is often a good 

time. Your comments should be matter-offact, 

honest and not overly emotional. (“I 

miss that you don’t confide in me anymore, 

but if you ever want to, I’ll listen.”) Use your 

sense of humor a lot. (“Blow up anything in 

chemistry today?”) Don’t be afraid to discipline 

him. He needs to know you care enough

to give it to her. When do you think she’ll be 

responsible enough? -- Grandma Kate 

Dear Kate: Some 16-year-old girls would 

take good care of such a piece. Others would 

lose it in a day. If you don’t think your granddaughter 

is responsible yet, you can present it 

to her for her 18th birthday or as a graduation 

gift, or if you think that’s too soon, save it for 

when she is 21 or finishes college. You could 

leave it to her in your will, but if she’s going 

to get the piece sooner or later, it would be 

nice for you to enjoy her reaction.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX 

By Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar

years and he didn’t know why. 

Here’s a possibility: Men and women 

mature differently. In their 20s, women don’t 

have a lot of self-confidence and are conditioned 

to crave security. Young men are at 

their most “risk-taking,” and that makes them 

appear confident and exciting. 

By our mid-30s, we have flipped positions. 

Women have developed the self-confidence 

that comes with raising children and handling 

emergencies. When the kids are teens, we 

want to explore what we’ve missed out on. 

We want to travel, take dance lessons, go back 

to school or start a new career. Men, however, 

have had a drop in testosterone and settled 

into a comfortable routine. A husband often 

resists efforts to do anything new or different. 

He may be a good man, but he doesn’t want to 

get out of the recliner. 

Couples that don’t grow together simply 

die together. -- Armchair Psychologist in 

Orlando, Fla. 

Dear Orlando: We still think this is basically 

a communication problem, but you’ve 

made some excellent points. Thanks for 

weighing in.
