Donation St. Peter's Episcopal Church sponsored a shower at the Sale family home in Red Bluff on Monday, Jan. 11. The Sale family made the home available to PATH (Poor And The Homeless) to house women and children in need of assistance in getting a new start in life. With 25-30 members and friends from St. Peter's attending, many kitchen and dining room items were donated. In addition to the shower festivities, attendees were given a tour of the home, which has and continues to undergo major restoration for this worthy cause. The home is housing a few occupants and the guided tour included information about the rules and goals of the program. It was wonderful to see firsthand how much can be accomplished by hard work and the goodwill of PATH, as well as by the many individuals and organizations in the community. Thanks to Gail Lock and Nancy Robison from St. Peter's for organizing the event and provided desserts. Literary Society The Fitzhugh Literary Society's literary theme this year is Aging: Bah -Humbug! At the November 2009 meeting at Ellen Gentry's home, Kathleen Rook presented the Biol- ogy of Human Aging to launch this year's theme. At Mary Adams' home ,on Dec. 7, Dee Metcalf presented, Cougars, Boy-toys, and Sexism. This presentation defined sexism, it's prevelence within the English language and its presence in professions along with gender wage gaps. Old gender battles are fading while new contemporary terms such as Cougars and Boy toys have arrived. These contemporary terms and others were presented, defined and discussed as they are becoming more common in media, literature and society. 2A – Daily News – Tuesday, January 19, 2010 Drop Off Sites in Downtown Businesses Thank you from D.R.B.B.A. Collecting until February 14th Food From the Heart Canned Food Drive ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ Come in and check out our $ 4 99 Lunch Specials We are open and NOT CLOSING Mon thru Fri 11-3 200 So.

By LINDE BALLENTINE Social Security district manager If you have Medicare coverage and you pay a higher Part B premium due to your higher income, here's some news that may be comforting during these troubling economic times. If there has been a significant reduc- tion in overall income, Social Securi- ty might reduce the amount of your Medicare Part B premium. The significant reduction in income can be as a result of many changes: marriage, divorce or annulment, death of a spouse, work reduction, work stoppage, reduction of income due to a loss of income-producing property, and loss or reduction of cer- tain forms of pension income. If any one of these events has happened to you, just provide Social Security evi- dence of the event and tell us how it has reduced your income. Evidence could be a death certificate, letter from your employer about your loss of work, or something of that nature. If you filed a federal income tax return for the year in question, we'll need to see your signed copy of the tax return. If your income will not change until the following year, you can give us an estimate of what you think your income will be. Once you show us evidence of the event and provide proof or an estimate of your reduced income, Social Security will update the records and, if appropriate, adjust your Medicare Part B premium. You can request a new decision and ask that we use more accurate tax return information if: • You amended your tax return for the year we used to determine your premium and it changes the income we count; • You provide proof from IRS of an error in the tax return information we used to make our decision; or • Your tax filing status for the year we used to determine your premium was "married filing separately" and you did not live with your spouse at any time during that year. If you wish to report a significant reduction in your income, visit www.socialsecurity.gov/mediinfo.htm, or call toll-free at 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778) or visit your local Social Security office. To learn more about Medicare Part B coverage, visit www.medicare.gov or call 1-800-MEDICARE.

Carlin Bowles addressed a teacher training class at the Tehama County Department of Education on Jan. 13. Bowles spoke about how the unit won the National Fulcrum Shield Award from the Secretary of Defense for drug demand reduction and is organizing a conference on Feb. 20 at the State Capitol. The teachers were there to discuss the issues of drugs, gangs and violence in the community. Senior Young Marines from Ari- zona, California, Oregon, Washing- ton, Idaho and Montana, along with youth representatives from Tehama County PAL and the Prevention Project, will meet to discuss strate- gies on drug demand reduction — including awareness about gangs and domestic violence. Attendees will take this informa- tion back to their respective com- munities to share with other youth organizations. Speakers from around the coun- try will address the conference. Assemblyman Jim Nielson arranged for this conference to take place. There are some related expenses for the conference and the Young Marines are hoping for some fund- ing assistance from the community. Tax deductible donations may be sent to the Young Marines, 332 Pine St., Red Bluff. The Young Marines have orga- nized this conference. Adult volun- teers have encouraged them but nearly all the organization and work has been done by the youth. For more information, call 527- 5325 or by send an e-mail to ben- nettfam@clearwire.net. Information is available from the Unit Commander, John Minton, at 840-0345 or by e-mail: usm- cmike3zero@sbcglobal.net. Young Marines adress Department of Education Community Clips
