The Police Activities League Martial Arts pro- gram is gaining steam after a slow start at the beginning of the school year. On Monday, Oct. 20, Sensei Jeremy Rowley and Sensei Terry Shackleford taught basic stances and basic grappling to the stu- dents. The classes are held on Mondays for new stu- dents, ages five and older and Thursdays for more experienced students. The dojo is at 1005 Vista way, Ste. C, near the Red Bluff Airport. All PAL programs are free. PAL is a non profit 501 (C) (3) youth educa- tional anti bullying drug, alcohol, and tobacco free organization supervised by law enforcement offi- cers and volunteer com- munity stake holders. PAL teaches youth about staying clear of trouble and to begin learning about looking towards the future. For more information about PAL programs, call 529-7950 or visit www.te- hamaso.org/PAL.

Are there people in your life that you like, you may even love, that you really should be walking away from? Do you Facebook? Do you see posts on your wall that I call Face Bait? You know, people who post vague ref- erences about their lives, none of which is good, and sit and wait to see who runs to lift them up? Do you feel forced to par- ticipate in the bashing of others when your friends share their opinions about so-and-so and what she is doing, how she looks and the misfortunes of her life? If any of this sounds fa- miliar, I want to encourage you to consider walking away. I know, it seems im- possible. It feels as though you may end up with no social life and even fewer "friends" on Facebook. Both are likely. Both seem scary, but both will set you free. Having a generalized sense of dissatisfaction with life is directly related to what you are doing and who you are doing it with. If all you see, hear and participate in includes gos- sip, negativity and contin- uous comparisons, how on Earth are you supposed to know that there is some- thing better out there? How does a fish know it is in water, if it has never been out of it? It just be- lieves that is the way it is supposed to be. There is love on both sides of walking away. Do you have a friend whom you love dearly, but they exhibit cringe-worthy be- haviors that you sim- ply wish they'd stop? You try to act like it isn't a big deal or you do your best to keep them propped up so you are not on the receiv- ing end of their emotional shotgun? Maybe you have known them so long that it is just a given that you must remain friends be- cause there are no alter- natives. So they continue to be who they are and you continue to wish you were released from them and their drama, but you just don't have the in- ner strength to pull the plug. It is easier to be swallow your pain than to cause them theirs. I en- courage you to see the benefits to both of you in walking away. When you walk away from the things in life that don't suit you any longer, you show love. You show yourself love for not allow- ing the toxicity into your life any longer. You show love to the other person because they, perhaps for the very first time, have a sense that how they oper- ate repels others and that they might want to look at their behaviors. The fact is, most people don't have the inner strength to share the tough truth's with others and try to help them round off their rough edges. Rather, they talk about others behind their backs and they tolerate the behavior because they don't want to deal with any blow back. Not dealing with things only prolongs the behav- iors and increases the likelihood that you will become increasingly dis- satisfied with your own life. If the people in your life leave you feeling worn out, unhappy and sad, how can you say you are fulfilled? At some point, the pain of change will be less painful than the pain of staying the same and that's when you see mar- riages crumble, life-long friendships explode and family binds broken. Walk away from the drama, the negativity and the gossip. Just leave. Those who care about you will ask why you are gone. Share with them your de- cision to live a health- ier life. Share with them the effect their words and deeds have on you and others. FaydraRectoricanbe reached at lifecoach@ shasta.com.

Police logs Ghosts, ghouls and mon- sters aren't the only things to be on the look out for this Halloween. Accidents and mishaps increase dramatically when children trick-or- treat. CalFire and the Te- hama County Fire Depart- ment want everyone to en- joy a fire-safe Halloween by following these tips. Costumes Purchase costumes made of flame resistant or retardant material — check the label. Fire resis- tant does not mean fire- proof. Apply glow in the dark reflective tape to Hallow- een costumes. To be seen easily, costumes should be made of a light color ma- terial. Masks can obstruct vi- sion — consider using make-up instead. Keep hemlines short enough to prevent trip- ping. Avoid loose, baggy sleeves, or billowing skirts. Decorations Light jack-o-lanterns with a battery powered light — never use candles. Instruct children to stay away from open flames. Be sure they know how to stop, drop and roll if their clothing catches fire. Be extremely careful with cornstalks and other harvest season items. Keep them away from sources of heat. Don't let them block doorways or stairs. Trick-or-Treating An adult should accom- pany children when trick- or-treating. Pick well-lit streets. If driving, be sure to watch for trick-or-treat- ers who are too busy to watch for you. Do not allow children to carry sharp sticks or other objects that could cause injury to others. Keep your yard free of tripping haz- ards, such as tools, hoses, etc. Children should be in- structed to eat their treats only after parents have in- spected them. Discard any unwrapped treats. If in doubt, throw it out. For more Halloween safety ideas or other fire safety tips, visit www.fire. ca.gov.

SIMPSON Simpson University to hold cra fair Two complete stills in as complete operation and running full blast were uncovered by Sher- iff M. O. Ballard and dep- uties on the east bank of Sacramento river about one mile northwest of Red Bluff, where this particular moonshiner or moonshin- ers had "dug in" and fairly well concealed. The stills were found in a building nearly covered with soil of the river bank, and what could be seen had the ap- pearance of a pumping plant. It was virtually sur- rounded by willows and not a trail led to it. Only from the river could it be seen and then only slightly. — Oct. 28, 1924 90 YEARS AGO...
