"I am really excited to start with this team," Ashurst said. "Everyone is very positive and are all here for the kids. I can't wait to see where this jour- ney takes us." Ashurst, who has been an educator for 24 years, said she is looking forward to the partnership with Las- sen Park and the opportu- nity to enrich the students' lives by working with stu- dent-scientists and profes- sional scientists from across the globe through blogging, Google hangouts and video chatting and integrate that into her lesson plans. The Spanish class, which is not a core class in many schools, will teach students about the language and the culture of Spanish-speak- ing regions of the world, Sebastien said. Students will learn basic vocabulary and grammar structures as well as reading and writing Spanish. Antelope School Dis- trict's Superintendent Rich Hassay encouraged Shef- field to open the school and has been a partner throughout the process.

LAVA FROM PAGE 1 HEATHER HOELSCHER — DAILY NEWS The Lassen Antelope Volcanic Academy, or LAVA, team in from of their new school Thursday before the very first parent and student orientation. A Dodge Durango that had been stripped was found at the Monroe Street site. It was not uncommon to find buckets of human waste and needles ev- erywhere and there were about 11 or 12 dump- sters of trash taken out of the Dog Island Clean- Up in April, said Tehama County Probation Cor- rections Counselor Geoff Will. One of the concerns is that the trash ends up washing into the creek when the rains hit. The cleanup was ex- pected to move to the far end of the Diamond Av- enue area, Harper said. There is at least one more clean-up planned before the rainy season hits. All areas that undergo the clean-up are posted with a 10-day notice next to areas that appear in- habited and effort is made by local law enforcement to contact the illegal campers, Will said.

People were "thrown around like little rag dolls" when tur- bulence rocked a JetBlue flight from Massachusetts to California, a passen- ger said Friday, in an inci- dent that left more than 20 people injured and forced an unscheduled landing in South Dakota. The New York-based air- line said Flight 429 was traveling from Boston to Sacramento with 146 pas- sengers and five crew mem- bers on board Thursday evening, when it hit major turbulence and chaos en- sued. Passenger Rhonda Ly- nam said the plane began to rock as it went "right through a black cloud." "It was like a movie. It was just crazy," Lynam said Friday morning from a ho- tel in Rapid City, South Da- kota, where the plane was diverted to the night be- fore. "We started hopping all over the air, and then all of a sudden, it, like an el- evator, just dropped. And when that happened, even people who had their seat- belts on flew out of their seats. I did, my mom did." Lynam, of Pacific, Grove, California, said overhead compartments flew open and luggage tumbled out. She described seeing wal- lets, sunglasses, sugar packets and other items on the floor when the aircraft landed. She said the seatbelt sign was on when turbulence rocked the plane. "We are really sore, we got pretty banged up, thrown around like little rag dolls," she said. "We are still kind of in shock." Seven customers and two crew members were taken to a Rapid City hospital by ambulance, and an addi- tional 15 customers were taken by bus for further evaluation. All 24 patients had been released by Fri- day morning. JetBlue said 122 of the passengers com- pleted their trip Friday morning, landing in Sac- ramento more than seven hours after their scheduled arrival. National Transportation Safety Board spokesman Keith Holloway said the agency is investigating the incident and has requested that flight recorders be sent to its headquarters. Pilots get detailed re- ports from various metro- logical services about wide areas with the potential for turbulence. While in flight, they also monitor shared radio frequencies for re- ports from other planes about the conditions ahead. Pilots will often warn other aircraft about moderate or severe "chop" at around 35,000 feet. A jet flying be- hind can ask air traffic con- trollers for permission to drop to 31,000 feet to try to avoid the worst turbulence. When planes hit extreme turbulence, they usually drop about 40 or 50 feet, although it can feel like more because it happens so quickly and our bod- ies aren't used to the force, said former US Airways pi- lot John M. Cox, now CEO of the consulting firm Safety Operating Systems. In rare cases, planes have fallen 200 feet or more. Cox said the "very best thing" that passengers can do to enhance their safety is to keep their seat belts fastened during flight. If the pilots go one step fur- ther and ask the flight at- tendants to also take their seats, Cox added, "take that as a significant event and make sure your seatbelt is low, across your hips and secure." Overhead bins are sup- posed to resist opening in such conditions, but some- times aren't latched closed properly or an item bumps against them, causing them to open, Cox said.
