The rain will benefit abnormally dry loca- tions and quell the building brush fire threat. Most locations from the southern Plains to the Midwest and the Northeast can expect a dry and warm day with sunshine. In some parts of the Central states, temperatures will challenge record-high levels for the date. A push of cool air will slice into the warmth over the northern Plains ahead of an ap- proaching winter storm for Thursday and Friday.

The U.S.-backed Iraqi forces advancing on west- ern Mosul from the south have not seen the waves of car bombs that troops con- fronted when they moved into eastern Mosul late last year. But the latest battle, launched on Sunday, is still in its early stages. As the militarized Fed- eral Police stationed in the hilltop village of Abu Saif scanned a nearby cluster of houses for militants, they spotted around a dozen ci- vilians waving white flags. The soldiers called out for them to approach. "They're scared," said federal policeman Hashem Ali, adding that he's seen the extremists target flee- ing civilians with sniper and mortar fire. When the family got close enough, a group of soldiers moved down to search them before bringing them back to the base. They handed the men cigarettes and wa- ter before whisking them away to be questioned. "We will put them in one of these empty houses," Ali said. "If their area is liber- ated soon, then they can re- turn." The troops expect to en- counter far more civilians once they enter western Mosul, the more densely populated half of Iraq's sec- ond largest city. Iraqi forces declared the half of the city stretching east of the Tigris River "fully liberated" last month after nearly three months of fierce fighting, but still occasionally come under attack there. Federal Police Cpt. Asad Abdullah pointed down at Mosul's airport and the Ghazlani military base, the next targets of the offen- sive. But he said the focus now is erecting dirt berms to guard their front-line po- sition. "We have seen it before when the enemy sends many car bombs," he said.

Callus for all your Fire Extinguisher needs. FIRE EXTINGUISHER SALES & SERVICE PublishedthroughanEventCo-SposorshipagreementwithTheDailyNews It is the mission of the State Theatre for the Arts to develop the historic State Theatre as a vibrant community center for innovative cultural arts programming and popular events that foster the cultural enrichment and economic sustainability of the historic downtown Red Bluff. In keeping with our mission we have begun a seat campaign. The goal is to upgrade the flooring and replace the seating in the auditorium. To accomplish this vital step in the restoration of the theatre we will need to raise $365,000. The new seating will enhance the art deco theme of the auditorium and be more comfortable and quieter than the present seating. Sponsors, members and patrons of the State Theatre for the Arts are invited to be part of the effort. With your tax deductible donation of $500 per seat you will have a lasting legacy with an engraved recognition plate, bearing your name or the name of a person you wish to honor, affixed to each seat or block of seats you help to purchase. Our goal is to purchase the seats by February 1, 2017 and install them that summer. At this time we would like you to consider making a purchase or a pledge to help in this endeavor. If you have any questions please call (530) 529-2787. You will have the opportunity to pick an area or seat(s) with your purchase or pledge on a first come first serve basis. Please Take A Seat sponsors are not guaranteed seating in chairs bearing their engraved plate(s) when attending performances.
