According to the CHP report there were signs of alcohol use, although tox- icology results are still pending. Rollover FROMPAGE1 and then our general fund, we can supplement without having as much impact on the budget," Brewer said. The proposed budget, which Brewer said will be updated before the June 24 council meeting, proj- ects that the city will spend morethanittakesin—with a caveat. Thecityprojectscity-wide revenues to total $10,707,174 in the next fiscal year, with expenditures expected to total $11,683,930, according to staff documents. General fund revenues are projected to total $4,547,410, with ex- penditures expected to total $4,926,359. Brewertoldcouncilmem- bers that he thought they might be alarmed when they saw the numbers, but added there's a reason spending is set at $976,756 more than expected rev- enues. He said $995,586 has been carried over from prior years from street and general funds, park devel- opment fees, deposits and more, and it's those funds thatwillbespenttoaccount for the excess in spending. "And then also you will note that we are adding the $80,000 to the savings ac- count, so I think that will give you some degree of comfort," Brewer told the City Council. Projects scheduled in the proposed budget include construction of Phase 2 of the Corning Community Park, construction of a floor for Rodgers Theatre, and overlaysofportionsofMarin Street and West Street. Brewer said the city proj- ects $79,600 in savings in the coming fiscal year be- cause of a vacant communi- cations supervisor position. The city projects an un- reserved general fund bal- ance of $34,503 by the end ofthenext fiscal year,which ends June 30, 2015. A total general fund balance, in- cluding reserved and unre- served dollars, is projected to be $944,503.

I have no idea how much money she has given to this community." In 2013 she became the first solo female grand mar- shal in the history of the RedBluffRound-UpParade. "I've had a very good life, this town has been very good to me," Jordan told the Daily News at the time. Jordan was also among the first women to serve on the selection committee for the academies from 1960 through 1966, screening applicants who wanted to enter a military academy. One thing many in the community knew about Jordan was that they could count on her, but that were some details about that very good life of hers that could sur- prise. In 1944, shy of turning 16, she lied about her age for the chance to play pro- fessional women's base- ball and join the rodeo circuit. She joined the Fresno Rockets as a catcher and joined the Women's North- western Rodeo Associa- tion and traveled across California throughout baseball and rodeo sea- sons. It's hard to put an ex- act number on how many people she taught to tie a proper bow. Garton said Jordan taught endless people how to tie a bow as she took that skill from her floral business and gave lessons and classes to groups such as the CattleWomen and Soroptimists. Garton said the reason Jordan connected to Red Bluff was simple enough. "People accepted her," she said. "People were good to her. If it wasn't for the customer she wouldn't have had the business that she had for as long as she had and she was willing to teach and to give." It was those relation- ships Jordan desired most. She told the Daily News in 2010, "I gained all my friendships in Tehama County from my busi- ness and if friends were money I'd be a millionaire because I feel so lucky to have so many friends in this county." Una FROM PAGE 1 By Sue Manning TheAssociatedPress LOS ANGELES Tuna, the hound so homely he's irre- sistible, peeks out from be- neath his blanket, baring his row of buck teeth in a slapstick smile for the cam- era. Courtney Dasher of Los Angeles rescued the Chi- huahua-dachshund mix with the bug eyes, big nose and infamous overbite in 2010. Four years later, the dog dubbed a "Chiweenie" in hashtags had 837,138 fol- lowers as of Tuesday night, when he ranked as the most-popular dog on Ins- tagram. Pet owners are unleash- ing their pooches on the photo-sharing service, set- ting up accounts to show Manny the French bulldog sporting spectacles or Tuna poking his schnoz out of a suitcase. Funny pet photos con- tinue to be a trend on so- cial media. They get plenty of play on Facebook and Twitter, including "mutt- bombs," where people Pho- toshop dogs into snapshots of themselves or celebrities. Muttbombs and animal Ins- tagram accounts are so pop- ular that shelters and others use them to promote adop- tions or rescue campaigns. These famous pooches also have been featured in shel- ter public service announce- ments and swarmed by fans in public. That's because animal lovers eat up the snapshots of dogs doing the darndest things, giving Manny and Tuna insta-fame on Insta- gram. Dasher, who says Tuna resembles Mr. Burns from "The Simpsons," started @ tunameltsmyheart in 2011. "You would never hear me call Tuna ugly," Insta- gram spokeswoman Liz Shepherd said. "He has un- conventional beauty. Some people say Tuna is the best part of their day." Handsome is the word Dasher uses. "He's so unique, and I love that and everything about him," she said. For Manny, the dog once rejected by a breeder is now the world's most fol- lowed French bulldog on Instagram, with 502,594 people subscribing to @ manny_the_frenchie as of Tuesday night. Amber Chavez of Chicago says her dog looks like a cross be- tween a bunny and a piggy, and he is the fourth-most- followed pooch on the so- cial network. "He was like a first-born child, we couldn't stop pho- tographing him," Chavez said, who set up the account with a friend in 2012. "We wanted to share pictures with family and friends and saw other animals had their own Instagram pages, so we created his very own." Manny's owners are among the many who use their dog's account to aid animal charities. Loni Edwards of New York City follows Manny, who has been posed to look like he's sipping a soda and dressed up to re- semble hip-hop artist Phar- rell. She said silly or cute canine antics put her in a good mood, and there's plenty of that from Manny, who spins on his back legs to a rap song in one short Instagram video. "I have a thing for Frenchies," Edwards said, explaining why she got Chloe, who has her own page, @chloe_themini- frenchie. Chavez and Dasher say motivation for their posts comes from their dogs or the fans. "Every time we turn around, he's doing some- thing cute or funny," Chavez said. Plus, Manny "gets excited when he sees a hoodie or outfit coming his way." For Dasher, the relation- ship she has had with Tu- na's fans over the years keeps her going. "Tuna is bringing joy to a global audience, and I enjoy being a catalyst to change someone's day," she said.

The Associated Press LOSANGELES In the wake of a series of deaths, offi- cials have voted to hire a "child protection czar" to oversee Los Angeles Coun- ty's troubled child welfare system. The Los Angeles Times reports supervisors voted Tuesday to create an in- dependent office charged with improving oversight of abused and neglected children. Its head will have au- thority over a variety of departments to better coordinate care and pre- vent problems that have led to child deaths. To reduce bureaucracy, the czar will report directly to the supervisors rather than to various agency leaders. The vote comes a year after the death of 8-year- old Gabriel Fernandez. The Palmdale boy died after he allegedly was tortured by his mother's boyfriend. So- cial workers let him stay in the home despite numer- ous reports of abuse. WELFARE LA County to hire 'child protection czar' The Associated Press OAKLAND The family of a 13-year-old California girl who was declared brain dead after suffering com- plications from sleep ap- nea surgery says she will receive an honorary di- ploma during her school's 8th grade graduation. Omari Sealey, the un- cle of Jahi McMath, said Wednesday the girl's school, E.C. Reems Academy of Technology and Arts in Oakland, will give the di- ploma to a family member. The school's graduation cer- emony is on Friday. Jahi was in 8th grade and scheduled to gradu- ate when she underwent tonsil surgery at UCSF Benioff Children's Hospi- tal Oakland in December. She went into cardiac ar- rest and was later declared brain dead. Her family went to court to prevent the hospital from taking her off a ven- tilator. Jahi was eventu- ally released to them and moved to another facility. Sealey said his niece is doing well and responding to voice commands.
