Nowthatthescientists, volcano experts and other have put the lid on Mt. Las- sen and have pronounced it officially dead, or at least in its last death struggle, Dame Nature has come to the assistance of the old mountains and is aiding it materially in keeping up the semblance of a real eruption. Hiding the dying moun- tain from the eyes of the tourists in this part of the Sacramento valley with a cloak of thick haze, Mother Nature proceeded to cook up a thunderstorm in the vicinity of the mountains Friday afternoon. From here the formation of the thunder clouds was not seen and the first evidence of it seen was a dark grey cloud, resembling a huge pillar of smoke and ashes, gradually rising over the top of the haze, and appar- ently coming from the cra- ter of Mt. Lassen. People in Red Bluff gathered on street in- tersections and watched the biggest eruption of Mt. Lassen that had oc- curred since last May. Af- ter watching the phenom- enon for a while they con- tinued along their way, and later stopped to watch the huge smoke column disin- tegrate and float off to the south. Then some curious per- son telephoned the For- est Service headquarter at Mineral to ascertain, if possible, how thick the ashes were at that place. The Forest Service offi- cial denied knowledge of any eruption, saying it had not been reported by their lookout on Broke- off mountain. It was sug- gested that the lookout might be smothered to death by the fumes. The telephone to the lookout station was then requisi- tioned and the familiar voice of the lookout gave assurance that he was OK. He further stated that Mr. Lassen had positively not erupted all day. Thus was Nature frus- trated in her attempt to give the mountain addi- tional publicity and pro- vide a good story for the newspapers of the world. —Aug.13,1915 100YEARSAGO... Mt.

Among this year's recip- ients are Emily Chrasta of Los Molinos and Emilia Salinas of Red Bluff. Recipients will attend a reception at 4 p.m. Sat- urday prior to the Giants game against the Nation- als at AT&T Park. A pre- game home plate cere- mony will take place at 6:45 p.m. Prior to the pre-game ceremony, the scholars and their families will hear from one Giants player as part of the Giants Commu- nity Fund Education Day. The Harmon and Sue Burns Scholarship Pro- gram was named in honor of the late Giants owners Harmon and Sue Burns and is underwritten by the Burns Family Founda- tion and Franklin Temple- ton Investments. The Giants Commu- nity Fund also will honor this year's graduates from the Harmon & Sue Burns Scholarship Program. All 10 students have gradu- ated from their respective high schools and are con- tinuing on to higher edu- cation. GIANTS Local students to receive scholarships COURTESYPHOTO DANCE ACADEMY NEW SEASON STARTING There are three types of people in this world: those who are good at math, and those who are not. Okay, it's an old joke, but I always get a chuckle out of it. There are three types of dieters. We shall begin with the "Planners." Similar to accountants, engineers, and folks who have to make sure all the "T's" are crossed, and all the "I's" are dotted, I assume these folks are proficient with project management software, budgets, con- tracts, and run a tight, well- organized ship at home. They tackle weight loss with the same fervor and methodology they would build a bridge: detailed ef- ficiency and a clear eye on the goal. They determine how many pounds must be shed by which date, divide by number of weeks, calcu- late average weight loss, es- tablish the necessary "ad- ditional calorie burn" per day — and plot a path to the end point. "Planners" will have de- tailed food journals ("three and half ounces of chicken, baked at 350 degrees; long- grain rice, one half cup; broccoli, steamed — with a 1/8 teaspoon of olive oil"). They will often proudly also share a graph of their prog- ress coupled with spread- sheets projecting future trends with appropriate predicted goal dates. Plan- ners schedule their lives to hit their objective, and by golly, they'll do it. Planners — and their willingness to rearrange day-to-day living to achieve what matters to them — im- press me. I however, would not re- ceive that moniker, as I re- side much more on the right side of the brain, fall- ing within the "Modifiers" label. Although some might call us "unorganized," I take umbrage at that descriptor, as I am quite orderly. I sim- ply find it difficult to stick with one task from begin- ning to end without breaks along the way. I get things done — and at the risk of being immodest — I am told I do them well. How- ever, I'm not a "black and white" kind of guy. Don't weigh me down with de- tails and specifics. Tell me where you need to be and I'll get us there; just let me figure out the roads we take, and I assure you, we'll both be happier. We are artists, philoso- phers, and motivators. We approach goals more infor- mally (which must not be misconstrued as less ded- icated); we are simply less rigid; and I say that without judgment. We nibble (pun lightly intended) around the edges of our lifestyle, seek- ing simple steps that let us glide in the proper direc- tion while not causing more turbulence than absolutely necessary. We accept a slower pace in exchange for a more contented journey. As illustration, the Plan- ner schedules 30-minute in- crements of spinning class at the gym; Modifiers find a couple moments of free time between appointments and take a walk. Planners use cookbooks and pre-plan a week's meals. Modifiers "see what they have in the refrigerator" and "throw something together." Planners are driven by the "How?" Modifiers wish to understand the "Why?" Summed up, Planners march head forth down the center of the avenue; Mod- ifiers stroll, often as inter- ested in the path as where it leads. Obviously, no one clearly fits either, and most of us fit both. But a character in a book I'm reading stated, "Be who you are and ac- cept it. Stop blaming your- self for who you aren't." Al- though discussing a differ- ent subject, the reminder hit home. We compare our- selves to "the others," for- getting they're "different," not "better." If the suit fits, wear it proudly. If not, get it al- tered. But standing around, lamenting its discomfort accomplishes nothing ex- cept placing you squarely in the third category: "Complainers."
