We’re in the final stretch of summer, and if you haven’t checked all your summertime fun off your to-do list, now’s the time! One activity to tackle right away: Stand-up paddleboard yoga. There’s nothing quite like striking a yoga pose while atop a paddleboard on Whiskeytown Lake. Lots of longtime locals will confess that they’ve never been to Castle Crags State Park, and there’s no time like the present to pack a picnic, head north and explore the rugged slopes that are rich in history and beauty. We’ve got a host of tips for refreshing your wardrobe for fall. Take inventory of which staples are already in your closet, treasure-hunt for the rest and put together a fresh look for fall. Meanwhile, you can learn more about the search for extraterrestrials that’s happening right in our own backyard at the Hat Creek Radio Observatory. This fascinating spot is open to the public on weekdays. Or check out Idea Fab Labs in Chico, where do-ityourselfers immerse themselves in “learning zones” that focus on electronics, audio production, screen printing, woodworking and much more. We’ll also introduce you to the fabulous Jake Mangas, whose boundless energy, can-do attitude and unwavering love for the North State is breathing new life into the Redding Chamber of Commerce. Join us for Enjoy Movies in the Park—we’ll be at Enterprise Community Park every Friday night in August, and at Red Bluff City Park on Aug. 27. The film starts at dusk, so bring your friends, your blankets, some snacks and join the fun. It’s the last hurrah for summer – enjoy!

WELCOME BACK, KENDRA! SPOTLIGHT ON KIMBERLY BONÉY We first met Kimberly in 2008 when she was the owner of Kimberly Nicole Boutique in downtown Redding and immediately loved her (who doesn’t?). We also admired her strong work ethic and her warm and friendly personality. Not long after she gave up her business—just a few weeks before she gave birth to her son, Braxton—we asked her to write some fashion and family-type stories for Enjoy. Kimberly has been writing stories for us just about every month since. Not only is she a freelance writer for us, she has been a lead merchandiser and sales associate in Enjoy the Store for the past four years. She helps to create ad campaigns for Enjoy the Store and is a featured jewelry and home decor artist at the Redding location. More fun facts about Kimberly: • She is a firm believer in the concept of retail therapy. • She loves the feeling of her fingers on the keyboard. In moments of stress, you’ll find her typing the blues away. • She loves animals (at least ones with four legs). In fact, her major was veterinary medicine before she made the fortuitous decision to obtain a degree in English instead. • She has a photographic memory with regard to color and style, which has come in handy as a designer and merchandiser. 12 | ENJOY AUGUST 2016
We are so happy to finally have an office assistant again and even more delighted Kendra Kaiserman agreed to come back to work for us. Kendra interned with us last year while attending Simpson University. She fit in so well from the beginning and was a dream to work with. We weren’t happy when our time with her came to an end. After graduation, Kendra spent a month in Taiwan on a mission trip. But before she left, we told her that we’d like her to come back to Redding and work for us. We’re thrilled that she accepted the offer. If you haven’t met her, you’ll want to. She’s just a breath of fresh air.

Editor’s note: This is the fourth in a series of stories about the Volcanic Legacy Scenic Byway, one of 27 All American Roads in the United States, which connects Lassen Volcanic National Park with Crater Lake National Park. Though it’s possible to travel the byway in one long adventure, we’re sharing it with you in five smaller pieces (from south to north). Each makes an easy weekend trip, and if you’re ambitious, you can squeeze it into a day. This month: Klamath; Coming up: Crater Lake National Park
the
continu V O LC A N I C L E G A C Y S C E N I C B Y WAY PA R T F O U R THE KLAMATH SECTION of the Volcanic Legacy Scenic Byway begins on Highway 97 at the Oregon border, and these 80 miles are a bonanza for nature lovers. Bring your binoculars and your walking shoes, since this segment offers numerous opportunities for day hikes. The Miller Island Wildlife Viewing Area is a 2.5-mile pedestrian viewing loop where you can see migrating geese of varying species in the late winter and early spring. You can often spot nesting sandhill cranes engaged in their mating rituals in the spring, and Canada geese and ducks can be spotted in spring and summer.4 continued on page 18

Venture north to the Klamath Welcome Center in the town of Midland, once a railroad shipping point for livestock and farm products. You can find visitor information here between May and October. A bit farther north on Highway 97 is Klamath Falls, the largest town on this section of the byway. Check out the art deco Ross Raglin Theater or the Favell Museum, which features western art and Native American artifacts. The Klamath County Museum spotlights the region’s natural and cultural heritage. The Lake Ewauna Nature Trail is walking distance from downtown, and you can learn about the area’s birds and wetlands. And if you’ve got some extra time to invest, the Woods Line State Trail is a 100-mile trek from Klamath Falls to Bly, and it’s popular with hikers, bicyclists and equestrians. If you have a duffer in your travel party, check out the Running Y Ranch just west of Klamath Falls – it’s Oregon’s number-one rated golf course. Head northwest on Highway 140 and you’ll find yourself tucked between Upper Klamath Lake and the Mountain Lakes Wilderness. The 7.2-mile Mountain Lakes Loop Trail offers a spectacular view of eight peaks, and if you’re a volcano hunter, you won’t be disappointed as you encounter heavily glaciated shield volcanoes, lava cones and multiple lakes. Also on the west side of the byway is Lake of the Woods Resort, which features a restaurant, marina, cabins and campgrounds. A seven-mile trail that links to the Pacific Crest Trail also leads to the top of 9,496-foot-high Mt. McLoughlin, a lava cone volcano. Ready to unleash some adrenaline? Crater Lake Zipline gives guests a chance to soar between tree platforms in the Fremont-Winema National Forest, and it claims to be the only tree-based canopy tour on U.S. Forest Service land. The three-hour tour offers views of Upper Klamath Lake, Mt. McLoughlin and the rim of Crater Lake. On the east side of Highway 140 is the star of the show on this section of the byway – Upper Klamath Lake, Oregon’s largest body of fresh water. Don’t be alarmed by the opaque green hue that the lake takes on
in the summer – it’s a nutritious blue green algae that’s packed with nutrients, so it is harvested and processed as a food supplement. This 30-mile-long, eight-mile-wide lake is a stop for waterfowl along the Pacific Flyway. Klamath Lake also attracts windsurfers, sailors, water skiers and kayakers, and if you’re looking for a unique experience, hop aboard the Klamath Belle Paddlewheel. It’s one of a number of ways to enjoy a guided tour of the lake. If you need a spot to land, Eagle Ridge Country Park offers a boat launch, primitive tent camping sites, and a view of hawks, pelicans and other waterfowl. At the north end of the lake, Upper Klamath National Wildlife Refuge attracts more than 250 species of birds. Once you’ve had your fill of the water, take a hike on Varney Creek Trail, which winds through old growth forest for 4.4 miles. It’s entirely possible that you’ll hear nothing but your own footsteps and the rush of the nearby creek. Continue northwest to Malone Springs, about 40 miles northwest of Klamath Falls, which is a peaceful day use area on Crystal Creek. (Don’t forget that you’re in a wildlife area – we came upon a bear that was almost as surprised to see us as we were to see it.) Up where Highway 140 meets Highway 62, you’ll find a history lesson at Fort Klamath, built in 1863. The museum is open in the summer. Then make a stop at Jackson F. Kimball State Park, the headwaters of the Wood River, which includes primitive camping, wildlife watching and fishing. Enjoy the adventure! •

J A K E M A N G A S A I M S TO B U I L D CO M M U N I T Y THE REDDING Chamber of Commerce goes back 106 years. But that doesn’t mean it can’t go forward in new ways. Enter Jake Mangas. The 35-year-old became president/CEO of the chamber in January. It’s a new role, but Mangas isn’t new to Redding. He was director of development and legacy giving at Northern Valley Catholic Social Service for a decade, and he grew up in Redding. “I think that gives him a certain appreciation of what this community has to offer,” Shasta Builders Exchange Executive Director Joe Chimenti says of Mangas’ North State roots. “It’s great when somebody like Jake comes back and shows, ‘I’m anchored in this community.’” “We’ve got a lot of great things going for us,” Mangas says. The Sacramento River, mountains and other nearby natural treasures are qualityof-life strengths, but Mangas is aware that Redding has challenges, too. The economy strongly tilts toward service and retail and less to manufacturing and high-tech industries. Job skills don’t always line up with job openings.
At Northern Valley Catholic Social Service, which offers programs for mental health, housing and vocational training, he worked with businesses to contribute to efforts for easing suffering. He sees the chamber job as a way “to continue to build the community, but in a different way.” “I am inspired almost daily by the abundance of talent that exists in our community, the enormous amount of engagement and concern for Redding,” Mangas says. The Greater Redding Chamber of Commerce is being branded more simply as Redding Chamber of Commerce and has a new slogan: “We champion your business.” Mangas is building membership, which has been in decline. There are some 800 members, 70 joining this year. “I refer to members as investors,” Mangas says. “I want us to be seen as a business solutions center. If we can’t directly help them, then we have the resources and partnerships to connect them with organizations that can.”4 continued on page 22
AUGUST 2016 ENJOY | 21
Creating an online community for local businesses is a priority. “One of the exciting things for me is redefining the Chamber of Commerce so that it remains relevant to supporting businesses today,” Mangas says. A new Google Maps project aims to boost businesses’ digital presence so they can be found when potential customers scroll through search results on a computer or smart phone. Millennials are becoming an important part of the business world, Mangas notes, and that generation approaches work in new ways. Many embrace entrepreneurship. “I really marvel at their courage and enthusiasm for creating their own companies,” he says. “What can we do as a chamber of commerce that grows that pool of young talent? And what can we do to retain and attract more of that young talent to the community?” A group within the chamber for members ages 21 to 39 is being developed. Mangas wants to connect the younger people in business with established businesspeople. There are learning opportunities in both directions, he says. Mangas describes himself as a collaborator and sees working with organizations like Shasta Economic Development Corporation, Shasta Builders Exchange and Shasta Cascade Wonderland Association, as well as city and county officials, as an important part of his job. “I love his approach to things,” chamber board chair Courtney McElvain says of Mangas. “I like his diplomatic demeanor. He has some really creative ideas.” Mangas graduated with a bachelor’s degree in communication design from Chico State University. He and wife, Janet, who he met in Chico, wanted to be in Redding to raise their family.
22 | ENJOY AUGUST 2016
“I’ve always felt called to be here,” Mangas says. The Mangas name has recognition and a favorable reputation in these parts. His father, Mike, is a longtime, likeable news anchor with KRCR television and his mother, Lindy, is a muchloved preschool teacher, who has taught for decades in Redding. Growing up, Mangas remembers people coming up to his mother to talk about being in her class or having a child in her class. They greeted his father as if he were a friend, even though they’d only seen him on television. “I have had such a wonderful example of humility in both of my parents,” Mangas says. He and Janet have three children: Joe, 15; Coby, 6; and Siena, 3. Son Michael died in his sleep at 19 months in 2007. “It was the most difficult thing I ever had to deal with,” Mangas says. The loss is part of their story. It shifted perspective to the fragility of life and importance of appreciating every moment, Mangas says. He and Janet experienced the strength in community. Prayers of love, offers of help and donations for the funeral came from family, friends – and people in Redding they had never met. “It makes the community part of you,” Mangas says. • www.reddingchamber.com

| STORY AND PHOTOS BY JON LEWIS
A N ATO L I A N S H E P H E R D S , G U A R D D O G S W I T H H I S TO RY LYNN KENNY AND MARK GRIFFITH HAVE an affinity for rare breeds and it was evident with the animals they kept on their small coastal ranch in San Mateo County: massive English Shire draft horses and Peruvian Pasos, smooth-trotting horses introduced to the Americas by Spanish conquistadors. When the couple relocated in 2008 and opened their aptly named Rare Breeds Ranch on 110 acres of rolling hills near Cottonwood, they had designs on adding sheep to their animal collection, so they knew they’d need a dog that was up to the task of protecting livestock from coyotes, bears and mountain lions. They spent the next two years deep into research, looking at Beaucerons, Rottweilers, Doberman Pinschers and Rhodesian Ridgebacks before ultimately choosing yet another relatively rare breed, the Anatolian Shepherd Dog.
The dog was bred as a durable and devoted guardian well suited to watching over the sheep and goats that roam the Anatolian plateau region in present-day Turkey. Evidence of their use by shepherds in the Asia Minor region dates back more than 6,000 years. Griffith was swayed by the breed’s physical characteristics—they are rugged, strong and fast and equipped with keen eyesight and an excellent sense of smell—and their resolute sense of duty. “They were bred to do a job some 6,000 years ago and they’re still doing that job. These are protection dogs and they will lay down their life to protect you. “The downside to that is, if a dog feels he needs to be somewhere else, he will be, regardless of what you think. They are no-nonsense,” Griffith says.4 continued on page 26

Kenny adds that there is a “yin and yang” aspect to Anatolians. “They will go to the wall” to protect livestock—the Anatolian lore is filled with stories of dogs fearlessly engaging lions, bears and wild boars—“but they are super sweet and loving.” That sensitive side was a key factor in selecting Anatolian Shepherd Dogs, Griffith says. “We wanted to protect livestock but we didn’t want a dog we had to lock up when the grandkids come over.” With that being said, the dogs are not for everybody. Kenny and Griffith operate a licensed kennel and have been Anatolian breeders for eight years. As such, they are committed to both the breed’s past— “we’re trying to preserve what’s been around for 6,000 years,” Griffith says—and its future. Anatolians can be excellent family protectors, but they need to be socialized while still puppies and kept under the firm control of an experienced dog owner. They also need a large and securely fenced yard. “This is not an easy dog to have in an urban situation,” Kenny says. “They are a difficult dog to take out in public because they will respond to threats.” To prepare puppies for their new homes, Kenny begins conditioning them shortly after they’re born. In honor of their genetic history, she plays lively Turkish music for them, then moves on to jazz, classical, country, pop and rock. “Most of our pups go to working homes where they are also members of the family. By whelping them in a central location of the house they become familiar with people voices, vacuums, blenders, music, all manner of household noise and smells,” she says. Weather permitting, they move outdoors to a protected puppy yard once they are big enough, and then are brought back indoors in pairs for lessons on housebreaking. “The feedback we get is typically very positive. Our goal is to send off a well-rounded puppy that is able to do the job for which it is bred and be a valued family member.” Anatolian Shepherd Dogs have been largely independent operators for centuries, usually keeping nocturnal hours when most predators are out and about. They keep a watchful eye on their flock while analyzing and responding to perceived or real threats. Socialization is key for Anatolian Shepherd Dog pups.

They are not aggressive by nature, opting instead to use their size (males can be 29 inches at the shoulder and weigh 150 pounds or more) to deter predators. If that doesn't deescalate the situation, the intruder is offered a subtle throat-clearing bark that can be ramped up, if needed, to a bloodcurdling warning. As the Anatolian Shepherd Dog Club of America’s web site notes, “that final warning is NOT an idle threat. With their legendary fearlessness, prodigious strength and cat-like agility they can drive off the largest of predators.” Ironically, those same traits have been harnessed and used to protect endangered predators. Rare Breeds Ranch is a proud partner with the Cheetah Conservation Fund in the African nation of Namibia, home to the world’s largest population of cheetahs. The organization provides ranchers with Anatolian Shepherd Dogs to protect their sheep and goat herds from the occasional cheetah attack. Cheetahs give a wide berth to ranches protected by Anatolians, which helps eliminate the need for ranchers to trap or kill “problem” cheetahs. Griffith and Kenny, with help from the Rotary Club of Red Bluff, donated eight units of frozen semen to the Cheetah Conservation Fund’s livestock guard dog breeding program in 2009. The semen (valued at $10,000) was taken from Zor, an American Kennel Club Champion and the foundation sire for Rare Breeds Ranch. • www.rarebreedsranch.com • www.asdca.org

C A S T L E C R AG S S TAT E PA R K IN THE TIMBERLANDS BELOW DUNSMUIR, the younger sister of Yosemite towers above the mix of a pine, cedar and fir forest. Granite pinnacles and spires loom 6,000 feet tall, polished by ancient glaciers. Native Americans referred to her as the “Castle of the Devil.” Spanish explorers called her “Castle del Diablo” (Castle of the Devil). Time has renamed her Castle Crags. Castle Crags State Park and the adjoining Castle Crags Wilderness Area tell a tale of rich history and outdoor adventure. The park has 76 developed campsites, with 28 miles of hiking trails. Rock climbers challenge her sides. Travelers along the Pacific Crest Trail traverse her rugged slopes passing alongside the Siskiyou Trail, which brought pioneers into California more than a century and a half ago. As the California Gold Rush commenced, miners moved into the area in great numbers. A rumor of the Lost Cabin Mine, though false, drew a frenzy of searchers looking for their fortune. There began a competition over the Castle Crags. In 1855, tension grew between settlers seeking gold and resources and the Native Americans who lived here. High above the valley floor, near Castle Lake on the saddle back called Battle Ridge, the Battle of Castle Crags raged.
The miners were merciless and their guns outmatched the bows and arrows of the natives. Legendary poet Joaquin Miller joined the miners and was injured with an arrow through his neck. Miller would recount the conflict in his book, “The Battle of Castle Crags.” The crags span from an elevation of 2,200 feet along the swift currents of the Sacramento River to a spectacular granite dome at 6,500 feet. Formed from volcanic activity and cutting glaciers, the wind and water have produced the smooth dome and spires jutting from the green forest. For those willing to walk her trails, a majestic view of the Castle Dome and Mount Shasta adorns the landscape, instilling a sense of beauty and power matched by few vistas. Mining threatened the grandeur of the Castle Crags. Gold, mercury and chromite miners joined loggers in taking the Castle Crags offerings for almost a century. By the 1930s, conservationists began efforts to protect the area. A system of California state parks was proposed, with the state park being formed in 1933. By the 1950s, mining ceased. In 1984, President Ronald Reagan signed the California Wilderness Act, adding 10,500 acres to the Castle Crags area.4 continued on page 30
AUGUST 2016 ENJOY | 29
Hiking trails access the history and beauty of the park. The Castle Dome Trail is the most rewarding. The area is rugged. No trail leads to the heart of the dome and spires, though the Castle Dome Trail leads to breathtaking views. The steep mountain path cuts through the forest, the trees giving the illusion of an ordinary forest, until a brush-covered saddle gives way to the dome and granite turrets of the crags, with Mount Shasta offsetting the picture with a noble visage at the base of the Castle Dome. More than 300 species of wildflowers grow among the fauna surrounding the castle walls. A mineral springs flows at the bottom of the Crags, where trappers once found their rest and health resorts beckoned travelers. The Castle Crags bring forth the words of John Muir, who travelled past the crags on his many journeys to Mount Shasta:
“Everybody needs beauty… places to play in and pray in where nature may heal and cheer and give strength to the body and soul alike.” • Directions: Castle Crags State Park is 25 miles north of Lake Shasta off Interstate 5. Take the Castella exit and follow the signs to the park.

I D E A FA B L A B S I N C H I CO THERE’S ALWAYS BEEN a certain amount of grit to a person with a do-it-yourself attitude. Of those with the grit, there are some who can figure out just about anything with ease, and there are the rest of us who scratch our heads in wonder at how our projects took twice as much time and money as we expected – if they ever get finished at all. At Chico’s Idea Fab Labs, people can be DIYers in community. It’s a place to Do It Together, if you will. A place to learn with instruction, if needed, or to just create on machines belonging to the space. It’s a place where projects get finished, not just started. This membership-based community workspace/Makerspace offers learning zones in a 6,900-square-foot building just blocks from Chico State University that includes electronics, audio production, digital fabrication, screen printing, programming, woodworking, leatherwork/ jewelry/textiles, a metal shop and so-called “zombie area” filled with hand tools and a room for paint spraying. An artist incubator program features the work of an artist about 6-8 weeks after he or she receives a crash course in the materials available at the space. Individuals can also purchase private workspace and have access to all of the tools available. Idea Fab Labs is a collaboration of friends who had all set up individual workspaces of various disciplines in their homes and found they wanted to collaborate more with others. Founder Erin Banwell had a laser cutter and had been working on large scale exhibitions at Burning Man. “His garage at home was getting a little filled up and he wanted some people to play with as well,” says4 continued on page 34

Billy Hopkins, another of the five friends who created the space. Others include James Hall, Jordan Layman and Sean Mitchell. “A lot of people came in that had a lot of different specialties,” says Hall. Each work zone has a manager, and a group of volunteers organizes the activities and instruction. “We teach every single piece of equipment here,” he adds, ranging from an acetylene torch to industrial sewing and embroidery machines to DJ sound equipment to 3D scanners. Engineering students from Chico State migrate to the shops to develop prototypes for their class projects on the four printerbots. Of the laser cutter which etches and cuts everything from leather to wood to paper and acrylics, Hall says, “People run their whole business on this machine. It’s very well used – it’s our most popular piece of equipment in the lab.” Patrick Bulmer has been a member of Idea Fab Labs for two years and creates man-cave minibars that he sells online (www.mancaveminibar. com). His business is essentially run through the community workspace and brings in significant income during the holidays. The space offers an open house every Monday from 6-8pm for the public to tour the facility and learn about membership opportunities. Three levels of membership allow access to different machines with an option for private access to particular machines for a set number of hours per week. Individuals may volunteer at the space to help offset membership fees, and a child’s membership allows children to accompany paid adults. Weekly orientation and safety classes are provided. Class offerings are as diverse as the members, who share everything from American Sign Language classes to the basics of programming with LED pixels. The space boasts a large multipurpose room with an LED ceiling that members write code for. They are currently working on a project to play an interactive game of pong on the ceiling. During a recent three-day weekend, a group of friends came together to learn how to brew beer. “This is a Maker thing,” says Hall. “We like to drink beer, so why buy it if we can make it ourselves?” The group gathers about once a month and has dubbed itself the Fabrewcation Club. “You can really be ambitious with that project you were thinking about,” Hopkins says of the possibilities that open up with so much knowledge and equipment available in the shared environment. “There’s a lot of really talented people here with lots of different skill sets. We’re hoping to bring them all together.” Adds Hall, “The biggest thing for us is creating community. Everyone that comes here wants to learn and teach. If you have a project and you have a problem with it, someone here will work you through it.” • Idea Fab Labs 603 Orange St., Chico (530) 592-0609 • www.ideafablabs.com

THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE—at least that’s what Mulder told Scully (and television audiences) every Friday night for the better part of a decade. While X-Files brought the search for E.T. into the living room of the average American, the scientific community already had long been pondering the show’s premise. Is the truth really out there? Well, maybe and maybe not, but despite X-Files’ cancellation, the search for E.T. continues, and is happening right now, not far from our backyard. Since the 1980s, the nonprofit Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI) Institute has been looking for something out there, and in 2005 it expanded its operations to Hat Creek in Shasta County with the construction of 42 radio dishes known as the Allen Telescope Array (named after Microsoft co-founder and donor Paul Allen). Jon Richards, a SETI senior software engineer, has been working at the Hat Creek Radio Observatory since shortly after its completion in 2007, and he gets that Hollywood has influenced people’s impression of the nature of his work. “But our organization is about hard science, not pseudoscience,” he insists. Thanks to Jodie Foster’s “Contact” and even more exaggerated movies like “Men in Black,” it’s easy to imagine
some well-guarded bunker, where little green men have been locked away, deep beneath the thrumming radio array. Easy, but far from the truth. “Quite often people think I’m hiding something,” Richards says with a chuckle. “We get a lot of people that come up here and they’re actually disappointed we’re not into the whole UFO business.” On the contrary, Hat Creek Radio Observatory is open to the public from 9am to 3pm on weekdays (obviously saving the secret stuff for the weekends), and visitors are welcome to walk among the radio dishes. There are no black suits, no memory zappers, no UFOs and no guards. If anything, what happens at Hat Creek Radio Observatory is a lot more mundane. “It’s a lot of computer analysis,” Richards says. “A lot of visitors don’t know what to expect,” Richards adds, “and they stumble across this place and they’ve never seen anything like it.” Each 20-foot-diameter dish offers a visual contrast to the snow-covered peaks and foothills rising in the distance, “but when (the 42 dishes) all move together, that’s surreal,” Richards says – surreal even before you realize that each dish, when pointing upward, is able to listen for signals as far as 200 light years away.4 continued on page 38
AUGUST 2016 ENJOY | 37
“It all depends on the strength of the transmitter on the other end,” clarifies Richards, but between Hat Creek and whatever is out there, that’s a lot of space, and potentially a ton of signals. “We’re just starting the search for E.T,” says Richards. “We have in our mind, because of popular culture, that there’s been a lot of looking already. So why haven’t we found anything yet? Well, there’s hardly been any effort. We’re just now getting started.” Richards offers by analogy, “it’s like going to an ocean, stepping in the waves and dipping a glass into the water and finding no fish but then assuming there are no fish. If you look at all the statistics of how many planets there are in the galaxy, and how many stars have planets around them, it’s logical there’s life out there.” In a sense, then, the Allen Telescope Array is a very small cup dipping into an extremely large ocean, and because the array is exploring radio signals, that translates to a lot of data entry. “We’re not listening with our ears,” explains Richards. “We’re listening with computers.” “We’re just trying to detect a signal,” says Richards, which means sifting through endless interference from nearby satellites and other known sources. “We’re thinking that unless (a signal) comes from something really close, we wouldn’t even have the capability to decode it.” You could say, then, that SETI is searching for something it can’t understand, something beyond our scope, beyond our origin. Should they ever discover such a signal, says Richards, it would be passed on to larger observatories “to try and interpret it.” So the question remains: Is the truth out there? “Who knows,” Richards says with a chuckle. “I’m just a technical guy.” And even while Richards and other SETI scientists continue their search, visitors are welcome to stop by and see for themselves. “There’s usually somebody here, an introduction video you can watch, a self-guided tour,” he says. “Most people want a general conversation about how this thing works, and what’s actually out there, and what we are looking at. Even the UFO guys are interested,” he laughs. “They’ll say UFOs are already here, and I’ll say give me a location and find me a frequency.” • Hat Creek Radio Observatory 42231 Bidwell Road, Hat Creek (530) 335-2364 • www.setiquest.info Monday-Friday, 9am to 3pm

GRATITUDE TA N TA R D I N I ’ S I TA L I A N FA M I LY T R A D I T I O N AT 4 AM, while most of Redding sleeps, six days a week Diego Tantardini is opening the door to his bakery where he will spend the next four hours making bread and pastries for regular customers and any others who happen to wander on in. “It’s a long process from a bag of flour to the finished product,” says the baker from Milan, who never took a cooking class, but grew up watching his mother and grandmother bake. At age 15, during a daily trip to the panetteria, his mother had convinced the shop’s baker to take him on and teach him. “In Italy, there was no grocery store or market with pre-packaged food,” Tantardini says. “Cooking and baking are part of our culture. We buy fresh bread every day.”
He soon discovered, however, the cultural differences in the attitude about food is significant between residents of Milan, Italy and Redding, Calif. As a result, he expanded the bakery and deli business to include catering and, more recently, a fresh-from-scratch fruit and vegetable juice bar. “Americans go to the store, get a couple bags of bread, and put them in the refrigerator where they last for 15 days,” says Tantardini. “If you read the ingredients, the list is unending. After two days, our bread is stale. Why? Because it’s natural.“ With flour, yeast, salt and water, Tantardini remains true to tradition in creating a simple, yet flavorful bread. “We don’t do organic yet, but we’re going to switch next year because I see that there is a lot of demand,” he adds.4 continued on page 42

Cooking and baking are part of our culture. We buy fresh bread every day. Diego and Deborah Tantardini
Using only unbleached flour for all of his baking, he also tries to avoid enriched flour. “The color, how it handles, how it rises, are noticeably different,” he says. “The enriched rises better, but there is no disclosure as to what comprises ‘enrichment.’” Still, he has found a niche with customers who appreciate a wholesome approach to baked goods, and he also distributes his bread through local retailers Orchard Nutrition, Kent’s Market and the Coffee Bar. Tantardini and his family first came to Redding when he took a year-long sabbatical from his corporate job. He started baking here because he could not find what he wanted in the stores. Opening Tantardini’s European Bakery-Deli in February 2015 with wife Deborah seemed a logical step. They produce 100 loaves of bread and 50 pastries daily, in addition to house favorites like lasagna and tiramisu (“It is sweet but not overly sweet,” he says of the ladyfinger-cum-espresso treat. “You can taste all the flavors.”). Several deli items are imported directly from Italy.

“The prosciutto comes from Parma, where the weather is mild,” says Tantardini. “Some is aged in caves for at least 18 months and seasoned only with salt and spices.” What he doesn’t order direct, he sources through authentic Italian company Molinari & Sons in San Francisco. Family members frequently send recipes from Italy, sometimes with minute detail about preparation. “Deborah’s aunt sent a recipe and was so deep in the detail she talked about using our pinkie fingers to roll the dough,” chuckles Tantardini. His mother vows to work alongside her son in the kitchen when she comes for a visit. “It’s a really hard business,” he admits. “If you don’t have the passion, it will be hard to keep going. We have many people who say, ‘Thank you for being here, for bringing European culture to our community.’” Gratitude—and the smell of the first bake in the morning—keep him going. • www.tantardinis.com • (530) 645 8958 2931 Churn Creek Road, Redding

WITH SO MANY TREATMENTS available when it comes to skincare, it’s no wonder most of us just throw our hands in the air and continue with our old routine, the way we’ve been doing it for years. Because “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it,” right? Not necessarily. Skin is our largest organ, so the more we know about taking care of it, the better. Here in the North State, there are numerous options—you just have to know where to start. Let’s start with lasers. If aging, acne or too much time in the sun has left your face with wrinkles, scars or blotches, laser resurfacing may help your skin look younger and healthier. This procedure uses a laser—or beam of light—to improve skin’s appearance or treat minor facial flaws by removing layers of skin. The technique directs short, concentrated pulsating beams of light at irregular skin, precisely removing skin layer by layer. The two common types of resurfacing lasers are carbon dioxide (CO2), used to treat wrinkles, scars, warts and other conditions, and erbium, used to remove superficial and moderately deep lines and wrinkles on the face, hands, neck and chest. What can be confusing about lasers is that people often think it’s one-laser-fits-all. But that is not the case. Julie Kaplan, owner of Disappearing Act, emphasizes that choosing the right laser is huge, and that comes with choosing a center that has not only experience but the right “tools in the shed,” Kaplan says. “I might use three or four different devices in one session in order to provide the best treatment for the patient.” Kaplan also stresses the difference between the energy devices themselves. Radiofrequency is different from Intense Pulse Light, which is different from lasers. Each is designed for different treatments. The laser that tightens skin may not be the same one to fade dark spots. Patients should have a consultation in order to determine the best option.4 continued on page 46

Daniel Lensink, MD, says his favorite thing to do is ablative laser treatments. Because he is a surgeon, he prefers to cut, which leaves an open wound not unlike a skinned knee; however, the patient receives dramatic results with one treatment. According to Lensink, the procedure “really improves the skin tone and texture.” An alternative option to lasers is Ultherapy, a non-surgical form of skin tightening. Ultherapy uses ultrasound energy to lift and tighten the skin, and is an FDA-approved, noninvasive procedure to lift skin on the neck, jowl area, upper face, under the chin and even the décolleté. “It’s the deepest procedure you can get without surgery,” says Tiffany Digiuseppe of Artistry Aesthetics. By stimulating the deep structural support layers of the skin, a natural, regenerative process is initiated, stimulating the growth of new collagen, which lifts and tightens the skin over time. Many doctor’s offices in the area offer BOTOX, a neurotoxin used to lessen the look of fine lines on the face. However, it is also used to treat muscle stiffness, muscle spasms, excessive sweating, overactive bladder or loss of bladder control. It can also be used to prevent chronic migraine headaches. BOTOX targets one of the underlying causes of frown lines and crow’s feet—the repeated muscle contractions from frowning and squinting over the years. The muscles are injected with BOTOX to temporarily reduce muscle activity. Depending on the severity of the wrinkles, the specialist will administer several injections to temporarily reduce the activity of those muscles. How long they remain “frozen” varies by patient, but results tend to last up to four months. Patients
46 | ENJOY AUGUST 2016
should begin to notice a visible smoothing of crow’s feet and frown lines between the brows right away. BOTOX is one of the safest skincare procedures when used correctly, and is more affordable than most people think. The number of treatments depends on the individual, but for around $50 a month, you can budget those frown lines away! Another treatment people are buzzing about (pardon the pun) is Thermage, a radiofrequency treatment that can help improve the appearance of sagging skin. There is no downtime with this treatment and results can last six months to a year. Kelsey Serht, an esthetician at Renew Dermatology, uses a bed analogy to describe Thermage. “It tightens and stimulates collagen, which is the mattress of the skin, and the laser treatment is the sheets.” She adds, “You still look like yourself, just refreshed and tightened.” With so many options for skincare and treatments, be sure to do your research, meet with professionals and take your time in making the right decision for you and your skin. Remember, these treatments require some waiting time for results. If “instant gratification” is more your thing, in my next article, I will discuss fats and fillers. Stay tuned… •

AU D R E Y D E LO N G T E AC H E S O N -WAT E R YO G A F O R H E A L I N G STAND-UP PADDLEBOARDING offers more than just a recreational outing on the water. For yogis and yoginis, it provides a new way to take their practice beyond the studio and the mat. Audrey DeLong, the first yoga instructor in Redding to offer stand-up paddleboard yoga, regularly takes participants out on Whiskeytown Lake where she leads them through a series of on-water poses while balanced on the paddleboard. The registered yoga teacher and yoga therapist-intraining says yoga on water breeds a natural focus. “You can’t think of anything else,” she says. “The paddleboard is constantly moving, so tiny muscles are always working to keep you balanced.” A challenging physical workout, stand-up paddleboarding targets the body’s core. Yet strengthening the physical being is not DeLong’s primary goal. “Most people in the United States have an interest in yoga because of the fitness and flexibility it brings, which is extremely beneficial,” she says. “But yoga has a spiritual component.”
It was this aspect that captivated her in 2001, after she was diagnosed with stage III ovarian cancer. “At 24, it’s not in your realm of thought to get a diagnosis of cancer. The C word is scary,” she says. Living in Cincinnati at the time, she found a local wellness center that offered therapeutic yoga and other holistic modalities, and when she was well enough, she went often. There she discovered yoga that was less fitnessoriented and more restorative—yoga that helped with healing mind, body and spirit. After a year and a half of surgeries and chemotherapy for immature teratoma, a rare type of malignant tumor, DeLong had her last surgery in November 2002 in which doctors removed pieces of her liver, bladder, intestines and uterus. “They had to put stents between my kidney and bladder because there were so many tumors,” she says. “I was literally on death’s doorstep. They didn’t think I was going to live through the surgery.”4 continued on page 52

But live she did, in spite of being told three different times that cancer would kill her. When she awoke, she was left with an ileostomy bag, significant abdominal scarring, and three still deeply embedded tumors. “I was allergic to latex, so the ileostomy bag kept falling off and I was bathed in poop every night,” she says. “I would lay in bed thinking, ‘If I’m going to live, great. If I’m not, this isn’t living.’” (To the shock of her doctors, they successfully reversed the ileostomy a month later.) Now receiving yearly follow-up scans, DeLong says two of the three remaining tumors have shrunk and the third one has maintained its size. “They are benign but if they continue to grow they will need to be removed in the future,” she says. Wanting to use the suffering she endured to help others, DeLong has embarked on a 1,000-hour yoga therapist training program. “Physical therapy doesn’t address the emotional, psychological or spiritual trauma created when the physical trauma occurs,” she says. “We hold emotions in our tissues, so in yoga, when we hold different postures or breathe
52 | ENJOY AUGUST 2016
through different poses, all sorts of emotions come to the surface.” As a full-time yoga teacher since 2011, DeLong works with individual clients as well as facilitating therapeutic groups through Shasta Community Health Center and Balance Yoga Studio in Redding. Recently she recorded a CD of yoga nidra guided meditations. “I walk the line between meeting students where they are right now and with a mother’s arm, encouraging them that we can go further, we can do this together,” she says, fully aware that sometimes moving forward simply means breathing. • www.audreydelongyoga.com

ISAC AND LORENA ALVAREZ are no strangers to hard work, nor are they unfamiliar with good Mexican food, and both traits make them excellent candidates to make a go of the Tango Tacos Bar & Grille in downtown Cottonwood. The young couple moved into the former Cottonwood Eatery in March, ending a year-long search for a brick-and-mortar restaurant to call their own. Their Tango Tacos trailer, which they have operated since 2007 on Cottonwood’s Main Street, is now being run by Lorena’s parents, Renae and Santiago Magana. “This is a lot of work. It’s extremely different from running a trailer,” Lorena says during a mid-afternoon break. “It’s a lot of work, but it’s fun. We’re still working through the kinks.” Isac, who spends most of his time in the kitchen as the lead cook, agrees with his wife but says he prefers working behind a grill to his previous job as a truck driver. A native of Guadalajara, Mexico, Isac immigrated to the United States in 2000; Lorena is a native of Red Bluff and has a lot of family members who live in Cottonwood. Even though Isac says his mother is an excellent cook, he is the first in his family to own a restaurant. Lorena, whose sister and cousin also work as cooks at Tango Tacos, says home and family are central to the restaurant’s success and its business model.4 continued on page 56 AUGUST 2016 ENJOY | 55

“We’re very particular about how our food is made. We want to serve food that’s made the same way we eat at home. Maybe it’s a little more expensive, but it’s authentic. People enjoy that and they come back,” Lorena says. Corn tortillas, a staple in a lot of Mexican dishes, are made from scratch each day, and everything from sauces and salsas to the signature tacos al pastor and the birria (a spicy stew with goat meat, native to Isac’s home state of Jalisco, that’s served on weekends) is fresh and made to order. “There’s no canned anything,” Lorena says. The couple’s two daughters, Isabella, 13, and 9-year-old Ilyssa, are part of the Tango Tacos crew at times, hosting and bussing tables when their schoolwork, sports commitments and 4-H responsibilities allow. “We want to show our girls that hard work pays off,” Lorena says. During the five years they operated their Tango Tacos trailer, the Alvarezes built their clientele slowly and steadily, and when the opportunity arose to take over the much-loved Cottonwood Eatery, they knew they had to tread carefully. “We knew the Eatery was important to Cottonwood, with its history, so we knew it was important for us to fuse the two businesses together,” Lorena says. Toward that end, the Alvarezes retained key Eatery employees and preserved the more treasured features from the Eatery’s menu, including fish & chips, the French dip sandwich, steaks, burgers, fried prawns and grilled cheese sandwiches. The breakfast menu features both Mexican classics like chorizo con huevo and menudo and American standards like chicken fried steak and pancakes. The Alvarezes also kept the Eatery’s lineup of soups while adding a traditional albondigas soup to the menu. A small bar was added and the Alvarezes offer Fall River Brewing’s Hexagenia IPA, Modelo and Pacifico on tap as well as regional wine from Burnsini Vineyards and New Clairvaux. A new TV set will complement plans for daily “happy hour” activities, including karaoke. Having already moved from a trailer to a permanent building, the Alvarezes are setting their sights on expanding and hope to open a restaurant in Redding within two years and then a location in Red Bluff. They’ve already started making inroads in Redding by using their trailer to cater at special events, including an employee lunch for Dignity Health workers. While they work to build up a customer base, Lorena says they keep a close eye on social media, take note of the feedback and make adjustments where they can. Cottonwood resident Angie Gurrola is a longtime Tango Tacos customer who has had the Alvarezes cater private parties and several events her promotion company, Mesa Productions, has presented. “We have never been disappointed and they have got many referrals from us,” Gurrola says. “They took on quite an undertaking with taking over the Eatery, but it was what Cottonwood needed, having local people in that spot. Having kept some Eatery favorites and adding their own specialties has made it everyone’s new favorite spot,” Gurrola adds. “They are genuine hard-working people with great family support.” •

Drumroll Please R E D B A R A AT B R I N G S N O R T H I N D I A N B H A N G R A TO C H I CO RED BARAAT IS WILD, AND LOUD. It’s also a genre unto itself. This Brooklyn ensemble self-identifies as “dhol ‘n’ brass,” a hybrid of Indian bhangra, contemporary Indian dance music that mixes Punjabi folk beats with popular contemporary genres, and New Orleans brass band music. The group has drawn worldwide praise for its singular sound, a merging of hard-driving North Indian bhangra rhythms with elements of jazz, go-go, brass funk and hip-hop. The creator of this 8-piece band, known as one of the best party bands around, is drummer and musical composer Sunny Jain. Jain is recognized as a lead voice in an emerging movement of South Asian-American jazz musicians who bring together America’s greatest original art form and the ancient sounds of their cultural heritage. He took up formal drum instruction at age 10 and studied jazz two years later, citing the work of masters like Art Blakey, Philly Joe Jones, Max Roach, Tony Williams, Elvin Jones and Roy Haynes as early influences, while later studying jazz at Rutgers University and New York University. Jain was also moved by the music of Indian-born percussionist Trilok Gurtu and the Indian fusion projects of British guitarist John McLaughlin, but the London-based electronic dance music of artists
like Talvin Singh and the Asian Dub Foundation exerted the greatest influence on him. He first made a name for himself as a rising star in the jazz world, awarded the designation of Jazz Ambassador by the U.S. Department of State and the Kennedy Center. He appeared regularly in DownBeat magazine critics’ polls as he led his own bands and kept beat for folks like Norah Jones, Kenny Wollesen and Kyle Eastwood. He also played and traveled the world as drummer with Junoon, Pakistan’s pioneering Sufi rock band. While searching for a set of tabla in a music store in New Delhi, India, Jain picked up the dhol, a barrel-shaped, double-sided drum. The instrument inspired Jain immediately, and he started to look back at Punjabi music and Bollywood rhythms he’d listened to his whole life, and inward to his own identity as a first-generation Indian American raised in Rochester, New York with Western rock music like Led Zeppelin, Genesis and Rush. Spending time as a highly regarded jazz drummer, Jain worked with the likes of Peter Gabriel, David Byrne and St. Vincent, and was used to being out of the spotlight at the back of the stage, knocking out his complex drum patterns.4 continued on page 60

But after creating Red Baraat in 2008, he became their frontman, playing the dhol, a barrel-like Punjabi drum that is slung over a shoulder. This allows Jain the freedom of movement for the band’s live performances, which entails lots of call-and-response, Punjabi singing, rap and unpredictable, contagious physicality. “I wanted the dhol to become the lead Indian instrument, as opposed to a sitar, tabla or Indian vocalist, where it was a big band – where all instruments were acoustic, where the sound and vibe of a large acoustic band would unexpectedly overcome people with exhilaration.” Red Baraat has performed at the White House, the flagship TED Conference in 2012 and Google’s Mountain View Campus, and the band closed the London 2012 Paralympic Games. It is building a startling history of performances in iconic settings, but its bread and butter remains the sweaty clubs, festivals, packed performing arts centers and college auditoriums that have kept the band on the road for nearly 200 dates a year. Besides Sunny Jain on the dhol, the band members are percussionist Rohin Khemani, Chris Eddleton on drum set, guitarist Jonathan Goldberger, soprano sax player Jonathon Haffner, Sonny Singh on trumpet, trombone player Ernest Stuart, and Steven Duffy on sousaphone. As Jain points out, “The strength of our band is that the spotlight changes throughout a performance, giving each member the limelight to display their talent and virtuosity. The goal of our performances is to blur the line between audience and band, bring the highest level of musicianship and improvisation, and then mask it all with some serious party grooves and vibes. Our live shows are filled with a ridiculous amount of energy so it can really deceive the audience when they initially see six horns and three drummers. People might automatically think ‘brass band’ and we are completely something different.” • Red Baraat • Thursday, Aug. 25 Lost On Main, Chico • 319 Main St. www.lostonmainchico.com • www.redbaraat.com Photo by Rich Gastwirt Phil Reser has written stories on major American rock and music acts for newspapers, magazines and radio stations since receiving his journalism degree from San Francisco State University.

and go-karts began racing faster than ever with these new motors. “Eventually, it became popular enough to start a business,” says RJ LaChance, general manager of QRCKarts, a go-kart manufacturer in Red Bluff founded by the younger Carrel. “They eventually got dangerous enough to need a cage.” The result is a style of racing called Outlaw Karts, and its popularity has become big enough that there are now three other manufacturers of the karts, all with ties to the North State. “We're the biggest, but we're not the only one,” says LaChance, noting that “QRC started Outlaw Karts. There was no such thing as an Outlaw Kart until QRC created them.” QRCKarts has a network of distributors in 12 states, from Oregon to Texas to North Carolina. North State tracks – at the Tehama
District Fairgrounds and Cycleland Speedway in Chico – still produce some of the strongest races and drivers. “It's an exciting thing to do if you're behind the wheel,” says LaChance. “It's incredibly exciting. As far as motor-sports is concerned, this is about the best training ground there is.” LaChance points to the success of popular NASCAR racer Kyle Larson. “He was a kid in Elk Grove that started racing at the Tehama District Fairgrounds and Cycleland Speedway in Chico,” says LaChance. “Those were the two tracks where he learned to race and he did it in one of our go-karts. He was discovered in our go-karts to race sprint cars. He was discovered in sprint cars to eventually end up in NASCAR.” And lest one think that this sport is just for males, he says, “It's becoming more and more4 continued on page 64

PERHAPS IT WAS INEVITABLE that when go-kart racers asked to use the flat track popular with motorcycle racers at the Tehama District Fair more than 20 years ago that a new sport would be born. Robert Carrel, son of race promoter Bob Carrel, enjoyed watching the go-karts once they were on the scene. Like any adrenaline junkie with a need for speed, however, he wondered what it would be like to replace a regular go-kart motor with a motorcycle motor. He got to work in his shop to find the answer. Turns out, the gokarts become twice as fast. A trend started,

popular with the girls. There's a decent number of them, and they're really good at it.” Case in point is Karsyn Elledge, daughter of current QRCKarts owner Jimmy Elledge, and granddaughter of NASCAR legend Dale Earnhardt. The elder Elledge was a crew chief for Earnhardt and bought QRCKarts to remain tied to racing. Karsyn is racing competitively sponsored by Nickelodeon and is racking up wins. Her dad travels to Red Bluff from North Carolina once or twice a month to keep up with the business. Originally from Redding, Elledge grew up racing go-karts when QRCKarts started. His father was an engine builder for Earnhardt at Richard Childress Racing. Two other women, Jodie Robinson of Forest Hill and Holly Shelton of Gold River, were just signed to Toyota's development team which looks for talented drivers to move into NASCAR. LaChance left an enviable job in marketing for the challenge of building QRCKarts, as well as the sport itself, because he's found so

much satisfaction there, both as a young man who raced and now as a father who brought twin sons up as racers. “Part of the reason that I took the job is that I love the sport,” he says. “It gave so much to my family and I.” LaChance has an entrepreneurial spirit and says, “It's a very, very tough business. To get it to the next level will be a huge hurdle and it's one I wanted to take on. There's a lot of infrastructure that needs to be put in place to compete and to grow the sport.” “We manufacture virtually everything, about 80 percent of the finished product,” says LaChance, who recently signed on as one of two Tehama County businesses with Grow Manufacturing, an effort led by Transfer Flow's Bill Gaines to develop manufacturing in the North State. Although there are challenges to being located in Red Bluff, from shipping and receiving to attracting top talent, he says, “We're all people who are committed to being here. I'm not quite sure that we'd want to be anywhere else.” Machinist Bill Van Tichelt has been
with the company for 20 years. With both Cycleland and the Tehama District Fairgrounds races, he adds, “This is still the best concentration of competition. And this is the best competition.” As he looks to the future of both the sport and his business, LaChance says, “I hope that someday this is a place that people are waiting in line to work for. We want to be the place that attracts talented people.” • QRCKarts 22805 Antelope Blvd., Red Bluff (530) 527-9199 • qrckarts.com

Baseball was life
when I played for the Shasta College Knights. It was in the middle of the first game of a doubleheader that I reached the pinnacle of my college baseball career. My grandpa had been a standout baseball player in High School and a semi-pro ballplayer in Dunsmuir in the 1950s. The day before the game he had passed away suddenly. We were down 8-4 and had mounted a rally. Suddenly the bases were loaded and Head Coach Brad Rupert told me to grab a bat and “hit something in the air.” Two thoughts ran through my mind: “I’m going to jump on the first pitch I get and I’m going to hit this one for Grandpa.” Sure enough, I hit that fastball with all I had over the 375 ft. sign for a game-tying, pinch-hit grand slam. It was a great feeling and I know Grandpa was with me as I rounded the bases.

ENTREPRENEUR ROBBIE CLEARIE HOSPITALITY, GOOD FOOD and business sense – it’s in her blood. Robbie Clearie grew up in the wake of two generations of entrepreneurs and restaurateurs in Redding. Her grandfather, Harry (Doc) Clearie, owned and ran Doc’s Hilltop Skyroom, a favorite place to dine from the 1950s to 1972, with its grand view from the north end of Redding. Clearie’s father, Bob Clearie, still owns The Hermit’s Hut opened in 1971. Clearie also credits her “other father” Howard Taylor, owner of Taylor Motors, for encouraging her dreams. She worked for both her father and Taylor during her young adulthood learning the retail end of business. Clearie and her former husband ran The Chalet at Lassen Park from 1992 to 1999, where Clearie oversaw the food service operation. At the same time, she helped design and establish California Espresso Cafe, managing the business for five years. Later, Clearie purchased the Sausage Factory on Hartnell Avenue, running it successfully for 10 years until her lease was up and it was time for something new. As a child, Clearie enjoyed an occasional meal at The Shack, a restaurant and lounge located on the busy intersection of South4 continued on page 74 AUGUST 2016 ENJOY | 73

Market Street and Eureka Way, where she was served by her mother, who worked there for 25 years. Now, Clearie’s Restaurant and Lounge sits on that same location. Clearie says it wasn’t anything she wanted, but she “took a flying leap” when the old building became available. She felt like the opportunity was “dropped in her lap.” From the beginning, she had a clear vision of what she wanted to create, from the interior design and decor to the “old school” lounge, a complete makeover from the ground up. She has created a warm, upscale environment with linen napkins and fine dining selections, served – she hopes – with the same sense of intimate friendliness patrons experienced at both Doc’s Skyroom and The Shack. Among her first guests was a couple who held their wedding rehearsal dinner at Doc’s Skyroom 45 years before. Her clientele includes many who hold fond memories of her grandfather. Her decor includes memorabilia from Doc’s Skyroom, she says, in tribute to his legacy. She adds with a rueful smile, some small degree of her success comes from “milking her pedigree.” Clearie feels strongly that her establishment is a uniquely Redding business, a testament to three generations of entrepreneurs contributing jobs and hospitality services to their community. Her hands-on approach to management has developed a loyal key staff that she brags has remained with her since opening on September 14, 2011. She trusts them now to take over while she enjoys occasional international adventures. When she isn’t traveling, she is a familiar
G REENVILLE HEALTH August is National Psoriasis Month
WISE
Psoriasis is a chronic skin disease that speeds up the growth cycle of skin cells.
What are the symptoms of psoriasis? Psoriasis causes patches of thick red skin and silvery scales. Patches are typically found under the elbows, knees, scalp, lower back, face, palms, and soles of the feet, but can affect other places (fingernails, toenails, and mouth). The common type of psoriasis is called plaque psoriasis. Psoriatic arthritis is an inflammatory type of arthritis that eventually occurs in 10% to 20% of people with psoriasis. It is different from more common types of arthritis (such as osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis) and is thought to be related to the underlying problem of psoriasis. Psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis are sometimes considered together as psoriatic disease. Anyone can get psoriasis. It occurs mostly in adults, but children can also get it. Men and women seem to have equal risk. Psoriasis is not contagious. This means you cannot get psoriasis from contact (e.g., touching skin patches) with someone who has it. Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease, meaning that part of the body’s own immune system becomes overactive and attacks normal tissues in the body. Diagnoses and treatment. Psoriasis often has a typical appearance that a
primary care doctor can recognize, but it can be confused with other skin diseases (like eczema), so a dermatologist (skin doctor) is often the best doctor to diagnose it. The treatment of psoriasis usually depends on how much skin is affected, how bad the disease is (e.g., having many or painful skin patches), or the location (especially the face). Treatments range from creams and ointments applied to the affected areas to ultraviolet light therapy to medications that are prescribed by a doctor. Many people who have psoriasis can also have serious health conditions such as, diabetes, heart disease, and depression.
Psoriatic arthritis has many of the same symptoms as other types of arthritis, so a rheumatologist (arthritis doctor) is often the best doctor to diagnose it. The treatment of psoriatic arthritis usually involves the use of medications that you and you’re doctor will decide together on. Psoriatic disease (when a person has psoriatic arthritis) may be treated with medication or a combination of medication, creams or ointments. Treatment is to be discussed with your doctor. Visit your primary care doctor if you have questions or concerns regarding your health. (Information collected from the CDC - Center for Disease Control & Prevention Website)

Town of Tehama, 1867. Photo courtesy of Tehama County Library
R E M E M B E R I N G H I S TO R I C T E H A M A TRAVELERS ON HIGHWAY 99, heading south from Red Bluff or north from Chico, slow down as they pass through the vibrant small community of Los Molinos. Some stop for gas, others for a quick meal. Most miss the small sign at Aramayo Way that points west and reads, “Tehama 1 mile.” In the mid- to late 19th century the town of Tehama thrived with a prosperous agricultural based economy and the hope of securing the county seat. Robert Thomes and Albert Toomes, both recent arrivals to San Francisco from the east coast, met in 1841 and worked building homes in the rapidly growing city. After a brief stint in Monterey, the young men came upon the idea of heading north into the Sacramento Valley in search of good cattlegrazing land. Thomes and Toomes convinced two other dreamers to come along, William Chard and Jake Dye. They liked what they saw, and during a brief stop for rest and water near what is now Elder Creek, Thomes declared, “Boys, land that will grow such trees as these is good enough for me. Here is where I’ll live, and here is where I’ll die.” The others agreed, and within a year, they all asked Mexican authorities in Monterey for permission to establish a “land grant” in the area. Thomes and Toomes each received rancho lands extending over 23,000 acres. Thomes preferred the land south of Elder Creek, while Toomes’ grant focused on land along the eastern bank of the Sacramento River stretching south of Mill Creek. Chard’s land4 continued on page 78

meandered north of Elder Creek, while Dye put down roots north of Mill Creek. In 1845, Thomes and Toomes decided the area needed a town center and chose the present site of Tehama as the best location. They constructed a rude adobe building of “mud, sticks and stones.” The four pioneers used the building as a meeting place, and later it was converted into an overnight inn and then a hotel. Meanwhile, others saw the attraction of water and good soil. One of these enterprising men, William Ide, moved his family into the area late in 1845. Ide, looking for a profitable crop to sustain a living, experimented with wheat and soon learned that the much-needed grain grew successfully. Word spread quickly and others, many others, followed Ide. Wheat fields spread along both sides of the Sacramento River. More settlers arrived in 1846 and Toomes realized the need for a ferry. He started operations at Tehama. Farmers saw this as a natural location to cross the Sacramento River and also as a central collection point for harvesting grain and traveling south by ferry boat. By 1850, the tiny town appeared well on its way economically, so Thomes and Toomes decided to lay out a real city. The next year, the stagecoach arrived, followed by the first newspaper, the Tehama Gazette, in 1858. By this time, riverboats 78 | ENJOY AUGUST 2016

plied the Sacramento River all the way to Tehama, connecting the area to the outside world. Tehama continued to grow throughout the 1860s, but the real excitement arrived in 1871, when it was learned that the railroad from Marysville would be brought up the Sacramento Valley. The town of Tehama was selected by railroad officials to be the critical point where a bridge would be built to cross the Sacramento River—thus allowing the railroad to continue north to the growing communities of Red Bluff and Redding. With the coming of the railroad, riverboat usage declined. Tehama finally incorporated in 1906, but as the automobile appeared in later decades, the town declined. While engineers laid out Highway 99 only one mile to the east of the town, it was a long one mile across the Sacramento River. • Tehama County Museum • (530) 384-2595 Saturdays, 1-4 pm

STEM CELLS ... OUR BODIES ARE BORN WITH TRILLIONS OF THEM Stem cells are precursor cells designed to be stimulated by the body’s future need to regenerate. In essence, these cells are “blank slates” that can become whatever the body needs. We naturally use them throughout our lives to replenish damaged areas and to keep ourselves functioning properly. Stem cells are capable of “turning into” tissue of various types when the body sends out biochemical messages that cause these cells to activate. Their role is to aid in the regeneration and regrowth of damaged or aging structures throughout our lives. Using your own stem cells, we may be able to help you with these issues:
ORTHOPEDIC (Alternative To Joint Replacement Surgery) *Knees *Hips *Shoulders
NEUROLOGIC *Multiple sclerosis *Neuropathy *ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease)
LICHEN SCLEROSIS
AUTOIMMUNE DISEASE
RADIATION DAMAGE PULMONARY *COPD *Emphysema *Asthma

a family affair P O S I T I V E PA R E N T I N G P R O G R A M O F F E R S VA L U A B L E I N F O R M AT I O N EVEN THE BEST PARENTS need a little help sometimes, and that’s where Triple P comes in. The Positive Parenting Program began more than 30 years ago as a doctoral thesis. Today, it is one of the world’s most trusted parenting interventions. Triple P can be found in 25 countries worldwide, including Chile, Portugal, Ireland and New Zealand. Triple P has a variety of programs to suit different families’ needs. They offer public seminars, group courses, consultations, private lessons and online services. Specialized Triple P programs have been developed for parents of children with disabilities, parents who are going through a divorce or separation, indigenous families and more. In Shasta County, Triple P’s website is packed with helpful information for all families, including real-life stories and videos with expert advice for parents. Here are their top 10 parenting tips:
1. Give your child lots of physical affection. Children often like hugs, cuddles and holding hands. 2. When your child wants to show you something, stop what you are doing and pay attention to them. It is important to spend frequent, small amounts of time with your child doing things that you both enjoy. 3. Talk to your child about things they are interested in and share parts of your day with them. 4. Give your child lots of descriptive praise when they do something that you would like to see more often, such as, “Thank you for doing what I asked right away!” 5. Children are more likely to misbehave when they are bored. Provide lots of engaging indoor and outdoor activities for them, like coloring and dress up. 6. Teach your child new skills by first showing the skill yourself, then giving your child opportunities to learn the new skill. For example, speak politely to each other. Prompt them to use manners like “please” or “thank you,” and praise them when they do. 7. Set clear limits on your child’s behavior. Sit down and discuss the rules of the home. Let your child know what the consequences will be if they break the rules. 8. If your child misbehaves, stay calm and give them clear instruction to stop and tell them what you would like them to do instead. Praise them if they stop. If they do not listen, follow through with an appropriate consequence. 9. Have realistic expectations. All children misbehave at times, and it is inevitable that you will have some discipline challenges. Trying to be the perfect parent can set you up for frustration and disappointment. 10. Take care of yourself. It is difficult to be a calm, relaxed parent if you are stressed or anxious. Try to find time every week to let yourself unwind or do something that you enjoy. • www.triplepshasta.com
