OUTAGE Continued from page 1A and the outage affected at least three substations, he said. Crews were able to restore power before the line was completely repaired, he said. Power came back on for some outside of Red Bluff as early as 6:55 p.m. while all other customers were restored by about 9:30 p.m. Red Bluff substation equipment inspections took longer to finish than other areas, Moreno said. Although there can be hundreds of lightning strikes even on clear days, severe weather produces more, Moreno said. ——— Andrea Wagner can be reached at 527-2153, extension 114 or awagner@redbluffdailynews.com. AB 109 Continued from page 1A ment, public safety offi- cials, and administrators of health services, schools and social service agencies meets with the executive committee to come up with the plan. The implementation plan is also set to map out use of funds from the state that are intended to help with the realignment. County Chief Adminis- trator Bill Goodwin has been involved with the Community Corrections Partnership panel from the beginning and has been instrumental in a subcom- mittee designing plans for a possible work farm. "You've got to come up with alternative ways to stretch that very limited dollar," Goodwin told the group. Muench asked each member to submit propos- als detailing potential costs and plans that relate to their own departments for the group to look at. At the most recent meet- ing, he asked each member to expand on their individ- ual plans within eight sub- committees. Each group is to bring their ideas back to the next meeting, to be held at 3 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 13, at the county administration building's Tuscan Room. So far, only some ideas have been expanded upon - including a plan for a com- munity day school campus and a work farm.

The ideas came from the ideology of giving would- be parolees something to do to improve themselves and their lives and thus decreasing recidivism. "Bad guys with free time do bad things," Muench told the group. Supervisor Dennis Gar- ton, an active member of the group, suggested that the county needs to go deeper and help the chil- dren before they grow up to become law-breakers. "We've got to teach these people how to act," he said. Garton's comments dur- ing an early meeting led into plans drafted with the help of Larry Champion, Superintendent of Schools, for a county community day school hybrid project to reach potentially problem- atic individuals at a young age. Potential grant funding has already been identified to partially help fund the project, Champion said. No details have been released yet. Meanwhile, a planning subcommittee made up of Goodwin, Garton, District Attorney Gregg Cohen, Sheriff Dave Hencratt, and Health Services Agency Director Valerie Lucero, have been working on the concept of a work farm, among other things. Although there are a cer- tain amount of the inmate population that cannot be free for the safety of the public, the option of a work release program gives some others who can be affected a chance to change, Hen- COLLEGE Continued from page 1A the A-G requirements — the subject area requirements that must be taken in high school to be accepted to a Califor- nia university — students were sepa- rated by conference and rotated to four break-out sessions. One session was led by Teresa Cot- tier, co-principal at Berrendos Middle School. With the theme "Building a Foundation," she explained the impor- tance of a college education and how to prepare for the college and scholarship application process, as well as tips for a cratt said. Tehama County doesn't have the technology or resources to implement a GPS or bracelet monitoring program, as some other counties have done, he said. The work release program is a more realistic option. The work farm would be a long-term project and an investment, Goodwin said. "We need to pencil it out and see if it's less money than the jail," he said. Goodwin and Hencratt presented the concept of a work farm Tuesday to the Tehama County/Red Bluff Landfill Management Agency meeting. The idea is to use some or all of a 148.98 acre par- cel, purchased by the land- fill agency in 2009, as a potential site for the work farm. Currently, the land is being leased for cattle graz- ing. At best, the group esti- mated the work farm would be off the ground in 12 to 18 months, but it was con- sidered a priority in realign- ment options within the Community Corrections Partnership. The work farm would conceptually be a 60 to 120 bed facility where inmates could farm, producing food and other products to be returned to the jail popula- tions and the community. Incorporated into the pro- gram would be treatment programs, life skills train- ing, counseling and other enriching services. "The real emphasis of this program is to break the cycle," Goodwin said. In comparison to other successful high school career. Red Bluff High School Leadership had a session on the Dos and Don'ts on the Red Bluff High School campus. The high school students also pre- sented club opportunities and other high school activities available to their future classmates, and helped in the breakout sessions. College Options held a session on the requirements for university entrance. Antelope Superintendent Todd Brose sees this event as huge success. "A huge thanks goes out to Expect More Tehama, the Rolling Hills Casi- no, the Tehama County Education Foundation and all others involved in counties, Tehama County has a unique venue that could accommodate an agriculture-based alterna- tive to incarceration, the group said. "A work farm might not work elsewhere, but here, I think it could be really suc- cessful," Muench said. It could focus specific resources toward those who need them, instead of exhausting resources by trying to give the same thing to everybody, he said. While working toward that project, the Communi- ty Corrections Partnership is planning on doing more community education to let people know what AB109 is all about. Muench and Cohen have been speaking at various group meetings in the county to let people know how the county is handling the realignment. "There is a lot of fear out there," he said. "There is a lot of anger out there." The group put a tentative plan to host two public meetings during the first week of November in Red Bluff and in Corning. Although the county will already be managing the first prisoners released through the realignment and new sentencing proce- dures, the Community Cor- rections Partnership will be continuing to work on a concrete implementation plan. ——— Andrea Wagner can be reached at 527-2153, extension 114 or awagner@redbluffdailyne ws.com. this awesome event," Brose said. "We cannot underscore the importance of a college education in today's society. Preparing our students as they enter high school only increases their oppor- tunities for a higher education. The col- laboration of the K-12 education sys- tem within our county is vital for the Expect More movement." Berrendos, Lassen View and Rich- field will follow up this conference with visits to universities throughout the North State. "Today our eighth-graders are excit- ed about their future and are building the foundation for their rock solid future," said Lassen View teacher Deb- bie Orange. JOBS Continued from page 1A him.

The first domino was the first Macintosh. Its ease of use and simple design hooked him, and that was when Knowles turned away from the biological sciences and to computer science. Knowles was on the fac- ulty at the Claremont Col- leges when Apple Inc. recruited him 20 years ago. He moved to the San Fran- cisco Bay area and more dominoes kept falling. He met his wife, and is now deeply involved in his com- munity. He worked for Apple for eight years in project man- agement and consulting and ultimately worked closely with Jobs for about two years.
