Opportunities for eighth-graders All ages and grade levels are important to the Expect More Tehama and College Options’ efforts. However, for the next several months, both groups are partnering to specifically focus on the eighth grade students and their parents as part of an effort to increase the college and career technical training awareness of Tehama County residents. Three massive pro- jects are underway. The first are four parent night workshops, strategically scheduled at four different parts of the county, inviting all parents of eighth-graders to learn more about planning for high school and beyond. Later this spring, eighth- graders, their parents and teachers will be selecting high school classes and the work- shop removes the mystery and myths surrounding high school and the sometimes intimidating path to college. “Eighth grade is a critical point in a student’s educa- tion,” said Kathy Garcia of the Job Training Center and Expect More Tehama. “It’s important that they all have the information needed to know what options are avail- able from here on out.” College Options Assistant Director Karissa Morehouse and California State Universi- ty’s Jamile Balli will be pre- senting the one hour parent night workshops. Two of the sessions, at Maywood and Vista, will be provided in English and Spanish. The workshops are for parents of eighth-graders at the four schools as well as all the other schools in the county. • Wednesday, March 16: Lassen View School gymnasi- um, Los Molinos, at 6:30 p.m. • Monday, March 28: May- wood School gymnasium, Corning, at 6:30 p.m., Span- ish version provided • Workshops were held already at Evergreen Middle School and Vista School. In addition, eighth grade students will have their own workshops explaining classes that help prepare them for more options after high school, referred to as the A-G classes. Lauren Tingley, the Tehama County College Options advisor, has been training a team of local volun- teers to present this fun and informative session. In March, the workshops are scheduled to be given to more than 600 eighth-graders in Tehama County. Lastly, one proven strategy for peaking student interest in attending college is visiting one. California State Univer- sity, Chico is Tehama Coun- ty’s official university. Nearly 400 eighth grade students are scheduled to visit Chico State between now and May. “Expect More Tehama has had a great year,” said Kate Grissom of Rolling Hills Casino and Expect More Tehama. “One of our proudest achievements has been bring- ing the College Options pro- gram to Tehama County, and then working with them on programs like this. While they are here to work with primar- ily the high schools, they are stretching their staff and resources to bring this cam- paign county wide because we all think it’s that impor- tant.” Expect More Tehama is a community collaboration to Wednesday, March 9, 2011 – Daily News – 5B Trivia night transform Tehama County by championing higher expecta- tions for higher education and career readiness. A goal is to make sure the expectations and hopes for all students are high, and the community takes every opportunity to help prepare them, from birth on, for options after high school including career tech- nical training and college. Expect More believes that one sure way to achieve this is to understand how higher education systems work, to visit colleges and trade schools and to promote a higher education culture. The College Options pro- gram does just that. It was started nearly a decade ago after a UCLA professor con- ducted a study in the North State that looked at the low number of higher education attainment by residents. A concerned group in Shasta and Siskiyou counties chose to focus attention on the high school level, and College Options was created. Lauren Tingley is working at Los Molinos, Corning and Red Bluff high schools. California outdoors Q&As from Dept of Fish and Game ing about wildlife. What to do with Injured Wildlife? Question: We have seen an injured buck in our neighborhood with a gash in his left hind leg and bone sticking out. It’s swollen, probably infected and he can’t put any weight on that leg at all. I don't see how it will get better and he doesn’t seem to have much to look forward to other than a lot of suffering and a painful death. He needs to either be given a fighting chance by tranquilizing and treating him or to be put out of his misery so this injury won’t fester and cause him to suffer anymore. Is there anything someone can do? (Jennifer P., Pacific Grove) Answer: There are wildlife rehabilita- tion facilities that are able to help fawns in some situations, but for safety reasons they cannot possess or take in adult deer. According to Nicole Carion, DFG’s statewide coordinator for wildlife rehabili- tation and restricted species, adult deer can be very dangerous and do not fare well in captivity to undergo medical treatment, so a rescue is not a good option. In this par- ticular case, it sounds like humane euthanasia may be the best solution. Unfortunately, the Department of Fish and Game (DFG) does not have the man- power to respond to most injured wild ani- mal calls. You should still report injured wildlife to your local DFG office. If there is someone who can respond, they will do so. The DFG may also be able to coordi- nate with local animal control to help an injured animal. It’s best to leave wildlife alone though, for safety reasons and because human interference in most cases is not beneficial. This buck may succumb to his injuries, but there are many times when deer can survive severe injuries; they just need time to heal. Thank you for car- The 16th annual Lions AllStar Basket- ball Game will be Sun- day, April 3, at the Shasta College Gymna- sium.

Trucks with locking gun storage lockers Question: I have some questions about a new crew cab style pickup out this season that includes a pair of built-in locking stor- age lockers under the rear seats that can be used to store firearms. My questions are: 1. Would dual storage lockers, separated by a divider that must be unlocked on both sides before it can be removed, satisfy the storage and transport requirements of Cal- ifornia law, providing of course the gun is transported empty and the ammo is kept separately in the other compartment? 2. In the case of long guns, if the two compartments are linked by pulling out the divider, would the owner then have to store ammo somewhere else? The only other locking storage compartment would be the glove compartment or maybe center con- sole storage, but that is within reach of the driver. (Matt E., Sacramento) Answer: A concealable firearm is defined as a pistol, revolver or firearm with a barrel less than 16 inches (Penal Code, section 12001 (a)). Concealable firearms are prohibited in a vehicle whether they are loaded or not (PC, section 12025 (a)(1)). However, concealable firearms may be carried in a motor vehicle provided they are locked in the vehicle’s trunk or in a locked container in the vehicle other than the utility or glove compartment (PC, sec- tion 12026.1 (a)(1)). exceptions to this. For instance, when engaging in, going to or returning from a hunting or fishing expedition, licensed Girls are at 4 p.m. and boys will be at 6 p.m. Admission is a $5 donation for adults. Children under 8 are free when accompanied hunters and fishermen may lawfully carry an unloaded concealable firearm anywhere in their vehicle (PC, section 12027 (g)). According to DFG Lt. Scott Melvin, because these particular under-the-seat lockers are new, there is yet no case law that specifically addresses them. In the future, the court may interpret these lock- ers as falling outside the description of util- ity or glove compartments as described in PC, section 12026.1 (a)(1), thus allowing people to carry handguns there. But until then, the new storage lockers should be considered utility or glove compartments. As for carrying long guns in under-the- seat storage lockers, there is nothing pro- hibiting someone from carrying an unloaded rifle or shotgun with a barrel 16 inches or longer in their vehicle. If the magazine is not attached to the rifle (and there is not an unexpended cartridge in the firing chamber), the rifle is unloaded. It doesn't matter how close the rifle and mag- azine are to each other. Number of fishing There are some lines in saltwater? Question: How many fishing lines can I use at one time when fishing in the ocean? (Rob K.) Answer: In saltwater, you can use as many lines as you can handle, with some exceptions. On public piers, only two fish- ing appliances (lines, rods, traps, hoop nets, etc.) are allowed. When fishing for rockfish, lingcod, salmon and some other species, the number of lines you can use is limited (see individual species' regulations for details). When fishing in San Francisco Bay, only one line may be used (and three hooks, maximum). See section 28.65 in the current Ocean Sport Fishing regulations booklet for more information.
