DEATHNOTICE "Appropriate school at- tire is very important in school readiness," said Rico. "We want every child to be excited about return- ing to school and ready to learn, and this can only happen if they aren't wor- rying about how they look. A few new outfits can help a disadvantaged child go to school with confidence and pride." The foundation granted $1,800 to the Orland Vol- unteers in Police Service to purchase bicycle hel- mets to give away at the National Night Out on Aug. 4. "Public safety contin- ues to be a priority for the tribe," said Natasha Magana, Tribal Coun- cil member. "The bicycle helmet giveaway is a way to raise awareness about bike safety at an event or- ganized to build police — community partnerships and neighborhood cama- raderie. Both are impor- tant to make our neighbor- hoods a safer, better place to live. We are pleased to have the opportunity to support both initiatives by funding the purchase of the bicycle helmets." Other grant recipients announced this month in- clude One Safe Place for $2,500, Westside Amer- ican Legion Baseball for $500, Biggs High School for $250, Corning High Parent Club for $250, Pleasant Valley High School Sober Grad for $250, Tehama County Fireworks Committee for $1,000, Glenn County 4-H Council for $750 and Corning Police Activities League (PAL) for $500. In addition to monetary grants, the Foundation awards local organizations thousands of dollars worth of gift certificates to use as raffle prizes for their fun- draisers. The foundation com- mittee reviews applica- tions for grants on a quar- terly basis. Applications and more information are available on www.rolling- hillsfoundation.com. Grants FROM PAGE 1 "When I cook at the preschool, we're trained to look for carbs, calo- ries and sugar," Ward said. "Sodium is a big preservative and people aren't aware of how much of it there is in foods. It can damage ones cardiac health. That's why I try to cook from scratch as much as I can." Alyson Wylie, a health education specialist for the California State Uni- versity, Chico Center for Health Communities, was on-hand to talk to residents about the Cal- Fresh program and hand out a cookbook of healthy recipes. "We're here to show people that if their in- come is less than a cer- tain amount, based on the number of people in their household, that they could qualify for Cal- Fresh," Wylie said. "We're advocates for applicants. We follow through with the application and see what deductions people are eligible for. Really we're a safety net for se- niors and hungry Califor- nians." Later in the summer Wylie will be taking what she knows to the Red Bluff High School Assets pro- gram where she will be teaching a cooking class. Students who complete the class will be receiv- ing a food handlers cer- tificate. While it is pro- vided through the Center for Healthy Communities, the class is funded by the Tehama County Depart- ment of Social Services. The Tehama County Health Services Agency had two booths with Mental Health Educator Fernando Villegas pro- viding information and working to reduce the stigma of mental health alongside Drug and Alco- hol Counselor John Geh- rung. "We want to keep kids safe and get people to lock up their alcohol and medication," Gehrung said. Public Health Educa- tor Jodi Putnam talked with people about choices from bicycle helmets and safety to what tobacco does to a person's body. She also had information on e-cigarettes. "E-cigarettes have less tar than a regular one, but they still have health risks," Putnam said.

The first unit on scene reported 10 acres had burned with a moderate rate of spread, and air tanker drops and helicopter support were called to help ground personnel. The fire was contained at 4:40 p.m. with extinguishment expected to take an additional 90 minutes. Cal Fire, US Forest Service and Tehama County Fire responded. Additional units were called in from Redding and Chico air attack, Vina Helitack, Antelope, Paskenta, Red Bank, Bowman, El Camino, Rancho Tehama and Salt Creek. FIRE 15 ACRES BURNED THURSDAY The measures under consideration in Wine Country would apply to 13,000 property own- ers along the Russian River tributaries running through Sonoma and Napa counties. The creeks once sup- ported a thriving com- mercial catch that took thousands of coho salmon a year. Today, local pop- ulations of coho survive only through government breeding programs. The water board will consider ordering winer- ies and homeowners to use only recycled water on lawns and other land- scaping. Water board members also will decide whether to require everyone along the creeks to start measuring how much water they are drawing from the creeks and from wells along the streams. The groundwater track- ing requirement would be rare in California, which has long abided by Gold Rush-era laws allow- ing landowners to pump groundwater unregulated and at will. Legislation passed in 2014 will grad- ually phase in groundwa- ter regulation. McIlroy noted that many vineyards along the creeks have granted access to the wildlife of- ficials who are trying to move salmon to areas of the streams that still have more water.

Council FROM PAGE 1 VISIT US ONLINE FOR MORE INFORMATION Send us your rants & raves By John Rogers The Associated Press LOS ANGELES When he wasn't busy scribbling out the theory of relativity, Albert Einstein seems to have spent a fair amount of time writing letters in- volving topics such as God, his son's geometry studies, even a little toy steam en- gine an uncle gave him when he was a boy. The Einstein Letters, which include more than two dozen missives, will go up for sale Thursday at the California-based auction house Profiles in History. Some were in English and others in German. Some were done in longhand, others on typewriters. Amassed over decades by a private collector, the letters represent one of the largest caches of Einstein's personal writings ever of- fered for sale. But more than that, they give a rare look into Ein- stein's thoughts when he wasn't discussing compli- cated scientific theories with his peers, said Jo- seph Maddalena, founder of Profiles in History. "We all know about what he accomplished, how he changed the world with the theory of rela- tivity," Maddalena said. "But these letters show the other side of the story. How he advised his chil- dren, how he believed in God." In one letter, Einstein urged one of his sons to get more serious about geometry. In another, he consoled a friend who re- cently discovered her hus- band's infidelity. In still another to an uncle on his 70th birthday, Einstein re- called how the toy steam engine the uncle gave him years ago had prompted a lifelong interest in science. On the issue of God, Ein- stein dismissed the widely held belief that he was an atheist. "I have repeatedly said that in my opinion the idea of a personal God is a childlike one," he wrote to a man who corresponded with him on the subject twice in the 1940s. "You may call me an agnostic, but I do not share the cru- sading spirit of the profes- sional atheist. ... I prefer an attitude of humility corre- sponding to the weakness of our intellectual under- standing of nature and of our own being." Maddalena expects the 27 letters to fetch any- where from $5,000 to as much as $40,000, for a total take ranging from $500,000 to $1 million. They are priceless, in his opinion, when it comes to having a greater under- standing of the most bril- liant physicist of the 20th century, the man whose theories ushered in the atomic age. "These are certainly among the most important things I've ever handled," Maddalena said. "This is not like a Babe Ruth auto- graph or a signed photo of Marilyn Monroe. These are historically significant."

By Amanda Lee Myers The Associated Press LOS ANGELES A federal judge in California has dealt a blow to a Jewish family's prolonged battle to regain ownership of a mas- terpiece painting seized from a woman fleeing Nazi Germany in 1939 and now on display in a museum in Spain. Judge John Walter found that under Spanish law, the Thyssen-Bornemisza Mu- seum in Madrid is the right- ful owner of "Rue Saint- Honore, Apres-midi, Effet de Pluie," an 1897 master- piece by Camille Pissarro depicting a Parisian street scene. In last week's ruling, Walter dismissed a 2005 lawsuit filed by the woman's heirs against the museum, but urged the institution to consider what would be fair to victims of Nazi per- secution. On Thursday, the fam- ily's attorney promised to appeal Walter's ruling to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Ap- peals in San Francisco, say- ing the museum's position is "morally and legally wrong." "Museums and govern- ments around the world recognize the need to re- turn Nazi-looted art to its rightful owners," attorney Laura Brill said. "The mu- seum is not doing the right thing here." Brill represents Ava and David Cassirer, the Amer- icans whose great-grand- mother Lilly Cassirer was forced to hand over the Pis- sarro to the Nazi govern- ment in 1939 in exchange for $360 and a visa to leave the country. After World War II, Lilly Cassirer said she accepted about $13,000 in restitution in the German courts after unsuccessful attempts to find the painting.
