CRIME Teenager caught instolen vehicle By Mesfin Fekadu The Associated Press LOSANGELES Taylor Swift's official switch from country to pop with her multi-hit, best-selling "1989" album brought the singer her second Grammy Award win for album of the year. Swift was shocked when she won the night's top prize, beating out Kendrick Lamar, Chris Sta- pleton, Alabama Shakes and the Weeknd. Swift used her speech to encourage young women who feel defeated at times or discouraged by others. "There are going to people out there that try to undercut your success or take credit for your fame ... you don't let those people sidetrack (you)," she said. Swift won Grammy album of the year for "Fearless" in 2009. She won three awards Mon- day, including best pop vocal album and best mu- sic video for "Bad Blood," at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. Alabama Shakes also won three awards, though Lamar was the night's big winner with five. He won best rap album for "To Pimp a Butter- fly" as well as rap performance, rap song, rap/ sung performance and music video. Along with his wins, Lamar also had a show-stopping mo- ment when he took the stage. He started as he appeared beaten, in hand- cuffs, with chains around his hands and a bruise on his eyes.

The event has been held three of the four years at the Ridgeway Park hall having started there, left for a year and come back, Principal and teacher Zach Whitten said. "It's a good size for us and we use this venue for about eight to 10 events a year," Whitten said. "We love Ridgeway and that it's a local park." Other events held by the school include the Pump- kinhead Family Bike Ride set for Oct. 8, The Old Time Country Fair scheduled for June 11 and a service day held this year in March.

By Julie Zeeb jzeeb@redbluffdailynews.com @DN_Zeeb on Twitter RED BLUFF The Tehama District Fairground cafete- ria was decked out in red Saturday for the annual Tehama County 4-H Fun Night, which celebrated the Chinese New Year as the event theme. The annual fundrais- ing event has been going on since the 1970s and is a great opportunity for lo- cal families to get out and have dinner and a night of fun at a relatively low cost, said UC Cooperative Extension Tehama County Director Richard Buchner. One of the newer additions is a VIP hour prior to the start of the main event to allow for the elderly and disabled in the community to attend before the event gets crowded. "We started it last year and it was a big hit so we brought it back again," Bu- chner said. VIP participants re- ceived a discount on the Chinese dinner prepared by Wendy Rosser and were able to participate in the games for free. The event was free to attend with dinner being set at $5 a plate and games at 25 cents a game to make it more affordable for fami- lies, Buchner said. The gen- erosity of the community in donations helps offset the costs. The fundraiser is the only one for the organiza- tion, which boasts 12 clubs serving about 400 youth in the county, Tehama County 4-H Administra- tive Assistant Spring Se- verson said. More partici- pants in the organization are always welcome and Saturday's event gave peo- 4-H FUN NIGHT CHINESE NEW YEAR COMES TO COUNTY An El Camino 4-H Club Member passes out a prize Saturday at the Tehama County 4-H Fun Night fundraiser.
