The Red Bluff basket- ball team and manage- ment is in mourning, deep, dark and despairing. Plans which have increased in their elaborateness and appetites which have been whetted for weeks are doomed to failure and disappointment. Being a member of the team the writer dare not express in print the feelings that arise in him and which are duplicated in the hearts of his fellow sufferers. But suffice to say that taking advantage of "Mike" Fish's temporary absence from his ranch, persons of sus- pected identity entered into the premises and re- moved the prize turkey which had been presented to the team by B. S. Greg- ory, an ardent basketball fan. The turkey weighed over 30 pounds and was being given the finish- ing touches preparatory to his sacrifice on the al- tar of Epicurius. The igno- ble persons who have de- prived the basketball team of its well earned reward will suffer summary ven- geance and a slip-noose justice if the detective now on the job verifies several items of circumstantial ev- idence linking up the sus- pected culprits with the crime. — April 28, 1916 100YEARSAGO...

FUNDRAISER Los Molinos Boosters to host bingo Tuesday ByCathyWilson For those of us who thrive for the perfect gar- den bed, we often find that our creations don't always live up to our expecta- tions. We must remember that picture-perfect flower beds are not only the re- sult of careful thought and planning but also, and un- fortunately, of trial and er- ror. I think that I am most critical during spring. This is the time of year when I must visit every nursery for new perennials and an- nuals. Mostly I try to just look for colors or textures that work with existing plants. This is the most ef- fective use of my time and money. But then, I am not always sensible. More often than not, I become inspired by a must have plant which has caused me to redo at least an entire small section of a garden bed. The new in- troductions offered by our local nurseries are always enticing and I find myself lured in. This year, however, I was surprised and pleased with myself by just redoing an exist- ing pot. I found the most wonderful lysimachia called Walkabout Sunset. It is a sensational creep- ing groundcover. It has variegated yellow/green leaves and bright yel- low flowers during the summer. I have paired it with a Superbells Lemon Slice, which is a calibra- choa producing masses of striped yellow and white flowers until the first frost. Both plants will drape easily over the edge of the container. The tallest plant in my combination is a wonder- ful Chinese Ground Or- chid which has delightful light pink orchid flowers and provides the height in this arrangement. The medium sized plant is a Raspberry Delight heu- chera (coral bells). Also tucked in this vignette is a tiny groundcover called trifolium Black Dancer which boasts of maroon and dark green leaves in variegation. This compli- ments the pink in the or- chids and the raspberry in the coral bells. I know that it is not even May yet, but so far this spring, my thirst is finally quenched. For now my inspiration has been satisfied. However, there are many more nurseries to visit and spring will be here for a while longer. Mark your calendars for Red Bluff Garden Club's annual plant sale 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. Friday and Saturday, May 13-14 at the Union Hall, 12889 Baker Road. Come and shop and get free gardening advice.

Many cars can now con- nect to the Internet, en- abling drivers to play mu- sic, use GPS and access roadside assistance with- out their phone. Unfortunately, Inter- net connection comes with a potential drawback. It opens up your car to the risk of hacking, warns a new Federal Bureau of In- vestigation alert. How the scam works You use the dashboard of your connected car to get GPS directions, connect through apps or stream mu- sic. But one recent study found that scammers can take advantage of security holes in the Wi-Fi connec- tion to gain access to the car'scomputer.Oncetheyget in, hackers can steal data or even take control of your ve- hicle. Connected car hacking is more of a possibility than an existing issue. But as more people purchase connected cars, con artists are bound to find ways to use them for scams. This just happened with smartphones a few years ago, so the FBI wants consumers to be aware of the potential problem and to treat connected cars like other computer devices. Tips to Keep Your Con- nected Car Secure: Treat your car like a com- puter. Your connected car is a computer, so use the same common sense you would for keeping your lap- top safe. Be especially cau- tious when allowing third- party devices to access your car's computer for reasons other than vehicle diagnos- tics and maintenance. Respect recalls. If you re- ceive a recall notice for an issue related to your car's computer system, treat it as seriously as you would a safety recall and get it taken care of right away. The noti- fication will tell you how to get the problem fixed. Cyber recalls are regulated by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, and you can check for all recalls at recalls.gov/nhtsa.html. Keep your vehicle's soft- ware up-to-date. Manufac- turers will do their best to patch security holes. Sys- tem updates are annoy- ing but vital for protecting your device. Always make sure you have the latest up- dates, "bug fixes," and secu- rity patches, but only down- load those officially pro- vided by the manufacturer. Don'tmakechangestove- hiclesoftware.Makingunau- thorized changes to the ve- hicle's software may intro- ducenewvulnerabilitiesthat could be exploited by scam- mers. Lock your car. Just as you password-protect your smartphone and laptop, be sure to lock your car and know who has access to it. If you suspect your con- nected car has been hacked contact the vehicle manu- facturer or dealer. Provide them with a description of the problem so that they can work with you to re- solve any potential cyber- security concerns. SCAM ALERT Internet-connected cars are next target More often than not, I become inspired by a must have plant which has caused me to redo at least an entire small section of a garden bed. The new introductions offered by our local nurseries are always enticing and I find myself lured in.
