Short-range plan

Managing Editor
Area residents in Lone
Pine and Bishop who have
found themselves marooned
in one community while trying to get to the other could
see some relief soon, the
executive director of the
Eastern Sierra Transit
Authority said Tuesday.
John Helm reviewed the
authority’s short range transit
plan, which he described as
the agency’s road map for the
next five years, with the Inyo
County Board of Supervisors
at its Tuesday meeting.
The plan is necessary for
the authority to receive
grants and federal funds.
“It also demonstrates our
stewardship of public funds,”
Helm said.
The authority provides
public transportation in Inyo
and Mono counties.
Helm said the Eastern
Sierra Transit Authority,
aware of the importance of
transportation issues,
retained LSC Transportation
Consultants, Inc. to prepare a
five-year transit plan for the
region. This study was conducted to assess transit and
related transportation issues
in the two-county service area
and to provide guidance for
improvements to the public
transit program over the
upcoming five years.

LADWP’s plan for irrigation reduction is a one-page
document outlining designations for below normal, dry

data for this designation was
taken from the San Joaquin

reduce irrigation water by 20
percent during the second

with an additional decrease
of five percent per dry year

duct needs. Much of the irrigated ranch land in the
Owens Valley was abandoned
after the construction of the
second aqueduct. Some irrigated land was abandoned
voluntarily by the lessees, in
order to guarantee that the
remaining land would receive
a specific allotment of water
each year, regardless of dry
or wet conditions, as required
by the Long Term Water
Agreement.
The Long Term Water
Agreement does have a provision for a consideration of
irrigation reduction in dry
years, stating, “It is recognized that successive dry
years could result in insufficient water to meet all needs.
During periods of dry year
water shortages, the Technical
Group will evaluate existing
conditions. A program for
reasonable reductions in irrigation water supply for Los
Angeles owned lands in the
Owens Valley and for
enhancement/mitigation
projects may be implemented if such a program is
approved by the Inyo County
Board of Supervisors and the
Department, acting through
the Standing Committee.”
Harrington said LADWP
interpreted this to mean a
long-term program over multiple years, while the county
argues the language and conditions mean irrigation
reductions should be considered on a year-by-year basis.
Harrington said his concern
was that if the supervisors
approve a long-term program, it will eliminate the
county’s authority over the
decision-making process for
irrigation reduction.
“If the public is confused,
they have every right to be
because we are working from
two different realities,” Inyo
County Second District
Supervisor
and
Board
Chairman Jeff Griffiths said.
During the public comment period, Inyo County’s
Agriculture Commissioner
Nate Ried said following the
reductions used in the San
Joaquin
Valley
and
Sacramento area would be
ridiculous for Inyo County.
Central Valley agriculture is
more adaptable as farmers
plant more drought-resilient
crops. Inyo County relies on
livestock and hay as its main
agriculture and these two
staples are not likely to
change. Inyo County is facing
a double-digit loss in agricultural value for the second
year in a row.
Mary Roper, president of
the Owens Valley Committee,
encouraged the board to not
agree to any reductions in
irrigation because the economy of Inyo County is less
than one half of one percent
of LA’s economy and every
rancher is vitally important
to the county’s economy and
the environment.
“Since LADWP is proposing to send 138 percent more
water down the aqueduct
than last year, there is plenty
of wiggle room for them to
provide our lessees with the
required water,” Roper said.
“This plan was designed
to help Inyo County’s ranchers prepare,” Yannotta said.
“Up until now, all of the
reductions have been on the
city of Los Angeles. All we
are asking is to follow the
terms of the water agreement.”
“How can I call this plan
‘reasonable,’ when there are
so many acres of land that
are not being irrigated,” Inyo
County
Fourth
District
Supervisor Mark Tillemans
said. “We have sacrificed
again and again and again.
We are so far under the bar
and this pill is just too big to
swallow. It really is David
and Goliath.”
The Standing Committee
meeting will be held at 1 p.m.
this afternoon in the Inyo
County Board of Supervisor’s
room
of
the
County
Administration Building in
Independence.

water conservation efforts.
However, Inyo County
First District supervisor Dan
Totheroh said conservation
for ranchers means a hit to
their way of life.
“We’re talking about economic livelihood; it is either
there or it’s not,” Totheroh
said. “It is not just an inconvenience. It is much more
important than that. It’s not
a matter of who can take an
extra shower or not, it is an
issue of being able to buy
their kids’ groceries.”
Bob Harrington, the director of the Inyo County Water
Department, said the least
amount of water ever allotted for irrigation was 37,110
acre feet during the late
1980s. Last year, which was
the driest year on record,
39,700 acre feet were used
for irrigation in the Owens
Valley. The usual allotment
required by the Long Term
Water Agreement is more
than 46 thousand acre feet.
This year, a 30-percent cut to
irrigation water would result
in less than 32 thousand acre
feet of water allotted to irrigation.
Harrington explained that
prior to the Long Term Water
Agreement, water delivery to
the ranchers would fluctuate

Whatever happened to ‘global warming?
By Harry Hurdle
Looking back in recent history, what happened to the
term “global warming” that
made headlines everywhere?
The global warming believers
held as one of their main
tenets that CO2 (carbon dioxide) as produced by mankind
was one of the main components of greenhouse gases
that caused the temperatures
of the planet Earth to rise
along with all the catastrophic
events that would most likely
occur.
But before we go any further let’s take a look at CO2.
First off let’s go back some
years to the volcanic eruption
in Iceland. Since its first spewing of volcanic ash, in just
four days it negated every single effort made in those past
five years to control CO2
emissions on our planet – all
of your efforts. Of course, you
know about this evil carbon
dioxide that we are trying to
suppress – it’s that vital
chemical compound that
every plant requires to live
and grow to synthesize into
oxygen for all us humans and
all animals to breath in order
to live. Now I know it is very
disheartening to realize that
all of the carbon emission
saving that was done then like
driving hybrids, buying fabric
grocery bags, spending hours
with your kids doing the
“Green Revolution” science
project, throwing out all your
non-green cleaning supplies,
using less toilet paper, selling
your SUV and speedboat,
changing your vacation plans
from abroad to home, risk
getting hit on your bicycle,
replacing all of your 50 cent
light bulbs with $10 light
bulbs – well all those things
Top of the Morning
Guest Columnist
like that went down the drain
in just four days!
The volcanic ash emitted
into the earth’s atmosphere in
just four days erased every
single effort that you had
made to reduce the evil beast
CO2. There are probably millions of volcanos that have
been active during the whole
lifespan of the Earth. During
the last 10,000 years there are
about 1,500 volcanos on land
that are known to have been
active. The number of submarine volcanos is not known.
At present there are about
600 volcanos that are known
to have had eruptions during
recorded history, about 50-70
volcanos are active (erupting)
each year. At any given time,
there is an average of about
20 volcanos that are erupting,
spewing out this crud – every
day. I don’t want to rain on
the “Greenie” parade too
much, but it is well known
that when the volcano Mt.
Pinatubo erupted in the
Philippines in 1991 it spewed
out more greenhouse gases
into the atmosphere than the
entire human race had emitted in all its years on Earth.
Think about it, Mt. Pinatubo
was active for over one year.
I’m going to rain a little more
on this “touchy feely tree hugging” moment and mention
the effect of solar and cosmic
activity and the well recognized 800-year global heating
and cooling cycle which kept
happening despite our completely insignificant efforts to
effect climate change.
I wish there was a silver
lining to this volcanic ash
cloud but the fact of the matter is that brush and forest
fires around the world
negates efforts to reduce carbon for the next two to three
years and it happens every
year. How interesting isn’t it
that they don’t mention “global warming” anymore, but just
“climate change” – you know
why? It’s because the planet
cooled by 0.7 degrees in the
past century and these global
warming bull**** activists got
caught with their pants down.
And just keep in mind that
our government has tried to
impose a whopping carbon
tax on you, on the basis of
the bogus “human-caused”
climate change scenario. It
will accomplish absolutely
nothing except make you
poorer. It won’t stop any volcanos from erupting, that’s
for sure!
Now you good people out
there always remember – “Life
is what we make it.” Hugs –
have a nice day.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
County supervisors,
administrator
a ‘dream team’
As a member of the Inyo County
community I wanted to express my
thoughts on the pending election.
Visitors ask – What makes the area
unique? Of course the first answer
begs descriptions of the Sierra,
Alabama Hills, Death Valley and
museums and visitor centers that
document our geological and historical heritage. That said, a second and
equally important response is the
unique community of people that
comprise Inyo County and the incredibly broad “grass roots” support for
the business community and nonprofit charities and organizations.
Most importantly, “the people”
have a partner in the present Inyo
County Board of Supervisors. The
five-member board of supervisors
and Chief Administrative Officer
Kevin Carunchio offer an operational
and informational forum every week
through the board’s weekly meeting,
which also offers a venue for community input. Most importantly they listen and act on the needs presented by
their constituents. Clearly, the growth
of the county has benefited from
many years of this important relationship but the present board, in
sports vernacular terms, could be
called a “dream team.” Comprised of
professionals that have lived in the
county, the present team is uniquely
qualified to continue serving and
managing Inyo County’s challenges
and growth opportunities.
The pending election offers only
one challenger, a statement in itself
of the confidence the people of the
county have in its board. It is this
writers opinion that while Mr. (Jeff)
Griffiths faces a challenger in District
2; Mr. Griffiths, as president of the
board and one who has provided

Three Devils Hole
vandals identified
Suspects
allegedly
attempted
to destroy
surveillance
equipment
Register Staff
A multi-agency investigation has led to the identification of the three men believed
to be responsible for the April
30 trespass and vandalism at
Devils Hole in Death Valley
National Park.
The investigators thank
members of the public for
sending in tips and providing
helpful information.
Investigators had not
released the suspects’ names
as of Wednesday afternoon.
At around 7:20 p.m. on
April 30, three men in an offhighway vehicle drove offroad around a gate at the
Devils Hole parking lot. They
discharged a firearm at least
10 times, shooting locks on
two gates, a motion sensor on
the security system, and several signs.
They damaged scientific
monitoring equipment. One
man swam in Devils Hole and
left his boxer shorts behind in
the water.
Alcohol was involved; three
beer cans were left behind
and one man vomited.
Although the men attempted to dismantle the security
system by shooting a motion
sensor and removing cables
from two cameras, parts of
the system continued to function during their entire time
at Devils Hole.
Clips from the security
cameras can be viewed at:
https://www.nps.gov/deva/
learn/photosmultimedia/videos.htm
Devils Hole – a detached
unit of Death Valley National
Park – is the only natural
habitat of the critically endangered Devils Hole pupfish
(Cyprinodon diabolis).
The National Park Service
works in cooperation with the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
and the Nevada Department
of Wildlife to protect the
endangered Devils Hole pupfish and its habitat. There
were only 115 observable
pupfish in Devils Hole counted during April’s spring survey.
Park employees found one
dead critically endangered
Devils Hole pupfish floating
in the water. The specimen
was collected on May 2.
Evaluation of the state of
decay indicates the pupfish
died approximately 24-48
hours earlier, a window of
time that includes the men’s
entry to Devils Hole. The cause
of death is not known.
One of the men waded and
swam in Devils Hole, causing
potentially significant disruption to their habitat.
The shallow underwater
shelf is vital to the Devils Hole
pupfish’s survival, providing
algae and invertebrates for
food and a spawning surface.
Video footage recorded this
man walking on the shallow
shelf, potentially stressing
and crushing pupfish, which
are slow-moving, docile, and
as they have no natural predators, curious by nature.
April through May is the
peak spawning season for this
annual fish, and so the intruder likely crushed and destroyed
eggs on the shelf.
Many
peer-reviewed
reports, published scientific
studies, as well as a Supreme
Court case (Cappaert v. United
States 1976) have identified
the integrity of the shallow
shelf ecosystem as critical to
the survival of the Devils Hole
pupfish. Any impact to the
habitat of this critically endangered species is a concern.
The National Park Service’s
Investigative Services Branch,
Death Valley National Park,
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service,
and Nye County Sheriff’s office
are investigating damage to
government property and
unauthorized entry of Devils
Hole on April 30. The National
Park Service is offering a
reward of up to $5,000 for
information leading to arrest
and conviction in this case.
Any tips related to this case
can be reported to the National
Park Service’s Investigative
Services Branch at:

6 THURSDAY, MAY 12, 2016 fendon
the Copper Kettle and the
Fendon’s Furniture building in
the area that is now the patio of
the Whiskey Creek banquet
room.
Fendon spent a great deal of
time playing in and around the
house and restaurant with her
childhood friends, several of
whom were Native American
children from the local Paiute
Tribe.
While Fendon loved all people and had many friends, her
friendship with her Paiute
“brothers and sisters” continued throughout her lifetime.
She considered them some of
her dearest friends and was
deeply honored that they considered her their “sister.”
Fendon’s mother and father,
as well as other extended family
members and friends were all
part of the old Eastern Sierra Ski
Club. She had many fond memories of skiing at McGee
Mountain on the old Rope Tow,
and in later years taking the
“Weasel”
up
Mammoth
Mountain.
Her family and friends also
loved ice skating on Rock Creek
Lake with a large bonfire and
their old cars frequently parked
nearby on the ice.
These were some of Shirley’s
most loved childhood memories, according to her family.
After high school, Shirley
attended two years of college at
Stephens College in Columbia,
Mo., returning to Bishop in the
summer of 1953.
In 1949, after moving from
Chicago to Ontario, Calif., Jerry
Fendon started making monthly
trips to the Owens Valley, calling on customers throughout
Inyo and Mono counties to reupholster their furniture and
rebuild mattresses from the
shop were he worked in Ontario.
On his travels to Bishop, Jerry
did a lot of reupholstery work
for Mazie in her home and the
Kittie Lee Inn. Shirley and Jerry
eventually met and dated for
some time before they married
in the summer of 1956.
After marrying, Shirley and
Jerry lived in Ontario for a short
time while Jerry continued to
travel to the Eastern Sierra.
By 1958, Jerry and Shirley
were back in Bishop, where Jerry
slowly established his local
reupholstery business while
helping Bill cook in the Copper
Kettle. Shirley got a job at
Continental Telephone on Main
Street in Bishop as an operator,
working the old manual switchboard on graveyard shifts and
helping in the Copper Kettle
when she could.
In 1960, Shirley and Jerry’s
first son, Randy, was born and
Jerry’s upholstery shop was getting busier. Shirley continued to
work for the phone company at
night and helped in the afternoons with the bookkeeping
and office duties in the upholstery shop while Randy played
nearby in his playpen.
As Jerry and Shirley’s business continued to grow, Shirley
eventually quit the graveyard
shifts at the phone company
but not before acquiring a lot of
interesting and fun stories from
late nights switching phone
calls.
One of the characters she
encountered on the switchboard
was famed Nevada brothel operator, Joe Conforte. Conforte
owned and operated the first
legal brothel in the United States
– the Mustang Ranch in Storey
County, Nev. Conforte often
called one of his other brothels
near Bishop, Janie’s Ranch, just
over the state line on Highway 6
near Montgomery Pass. Shirley
put those calls through and
would have brief conversations
with him during the process of
connecting his calls. She said he
was always “very nice” on the
phone and she enjoyed the
calls.
In 1965, Shirley and Jerry’s
second son, Bill, was born. Bill
was named “William Whorff
Fendon” after his maternal
grandfather. With two young
children, Shirley stayed busy
being a mother but she still
helped Jerry in the upholstery
shop and her parents in the
Copper Kettle.
Shirley brought the boys to
work with her when they were
little and they went there each
afternoon after school. Shirley,
Jerry, Randy and Bill spent most
of their time in and around
Fendon’s and the Copper Kettle
for many years – on the same
property Shirley had grown up
on. It was a great family gathering place with many good
friends and everyone had a lot
of fun times there.
In raising Randy and Bill,
Shirley was adamant about
teaching them certain lessons
and character qualities. These
included “Love and trust God
and let good direct your path.
Always tell the truth. Always do
what’s right whether anyone
knows or not. Treat everyone no
matter who they are with kindness, respect and dignity. Help
and protect animals. Don’t take
yourself too seriously and don’t
be afraid to laugh at yourself.
And finally, laugh – a lot.”
After Bill was born and survived a nearly fatal illness as an
infant, Shirley dedicated herself
to serving God and her church
the best she could. She and
Jerry have been members of the
Christian Science Church in
Bishop ever since. Shirley
attended church consistently
and served faithfully in nearly
every capacity the church
offered throughout her life. She
also conducted nearly 60
Christian Science memorial services for members of the church,
as well as for many other families in the community who were
not Christian Scientists but
sought her out to do their
memorials.
The years went by, the boys
grew up and Shirley and Jerry’s
business continued growing as
she and Jerry served the people
of Inyo and Mono counties with
their home furnishings needs.
At the same time, Shirley was
genuinely passionate about the
town she loved and serving her
community in any way that she
could.
She was involved in and was
a founding member of the
Bishop Mural Society.
She
loved Mule Days and thoroughly
enjoyed driving visitors and dignitaries around the fairgrounds
in golf carts each year for the
Mule Days committee. She was
on the Laws Railroad Museum
Restoration Committee and she
was integral to the planning and
implementation of the Kern W.
(Hudson)
Dunagan
Congressional Medal of Honor
Memorial in front of the Bishop
Area Chamber of Commerce.
Dunagan was one of Shirley’s
classmates and she was honored to be part of the memorial
committee.
Shirley enthusiastically supported Ted and Lisa Schade’s
early work with the animal shelters in Inyo and Mono counties
and Inyo/Mono County Animal
Resources and Education, making sure that Fendon’s Furniture
supported the annual ICARE
fundraisers generously. She also
quietly helped many individuals
in and around Bishop throughout her life and rescued countless stray animals, often taking
them for veterinarian services
or finding them homes.
Shirley and Jerry spent the
majority of their adult lives running their business, where they
delighted in the innumerable
friendships and acquaintances
they had over the years. Some of
Shirley’s dearest friends are the
staff at Fendon’s Furniture,
many of whom have worked
with the Fendon family for
years, are appreciated immeasurably and considered part of
the family.
In recent years, Shirley tried
to personally call everyone who
purchased furniture, mattresses
or had reupholstery or woodwork done at Fendon’s. She
loved to thank them for their
business and to make sure they
were completely satisfied. She
thoroughly enjoyed these calls
and had a great time visiting
with all of Fendon’s customers.
Everyone at the store and
Fendon’s customers will miss
having her in the store making
these calls on a daily basis, visiting with customers and telling
stories of the “old days” in
Bishop.
One of Shirley’s favorite sayings was “Be kind and sweet to
all you meet. Be honest and true
and that will be you.” That is
how she will be remembered by
those who knew her well.
Shirley Rae Whorff Fendon is
survived by her husband, Jerry
Fendon, her younger son Bill
Fendon and his wife, Jane Gregg
Fendon, and their children,
Willem and Quentin Fendon; her
older son Randy Fendon and his
wife, Cheri Fendon, and their
children, Wil Daniels and Tucker
Fendon, wife. Jessica Mattson
Fendon; and great-grandson
Colin Mattson Fendon.
A Celebration of Life will be
held for Shirley Rae Whorff
Fendon at 2 p.m. Sunday, June
12, 2016, in the Whiskey Creek
patio. The Fendon family would
love to have everyone who knew
her join them at Whiskey Creek
that day to share their memories about Shirley Rae.
In lieu of flowers, the family
asks that a donation in Shirley’s
name be made to any appropriate military veterans support
organization, ICARE or the
American Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals.

“Jeff wanted to move to a
small town where he could raise
his kids and enjoy the outdoors,”
Pat Nahin, co-owner of Dwayne’s
Friendly Pharmacy said. “It is so
heartwarming to have known Jeff
and to watch his kids grow up
here and watch Sarah become a
pharmacist.”
Nahin said Jeff often brought
Sarah with him to the pharmacy,
exposing her to the field from a
young age.
Sarah was the guest speaker
at the May 3 meeting of the
Bishop Rotary Club, where she
gave a presentation about antibiotic resistance. Her father introduced her to the group.
“She was so impressive,”
Nahin said. “She really held the
Rotarians’ interest.”
Giving a public presentation
was part of Brown’s requirements
and she chose to give her presentation to the Bishop Rotarians.
She gave the presentation as part
of her clinical rotation, which she
was able to complete at Dwayne’s
Friendly Pharmacy.
“I’m proud of how hard she is
working and I’m proud she was
exposed to pharmacy in a positive way as a kid,” Jeff Brown
said. “We do pharmacy right here
at Dwayne’s and she picked up
on that. Pharmacy is a good profession because you can go home
knowing you’ve done something
to help someone. Practicing pharmacy in a small town is a very
special thing and I’m glad she
saw it done right.”
esta
study was to evaluate the specific needs for transit services, as
well as to develop plans for
improvements and service revisions.
He reviewed selected highlights of the study with supervisors, which included: a detailed
review of ESTA’s operating statistics and listing of ESTA operating performance, including a
peer review.
Within the plan, Helm said,
there also is a discussion of service, capital, and management
and financial alternatives, including the following recommendations:
• Five-day/week service to
Reno and Lancaster
• Seasonal summer service on
Saturday to Reno and Lancaster
• Addition of a mid-day Lone
Pine to Bishop route
• Modify fixed routes in
Mammoth Lakes to provide service to the “Meridian Corridor”
• Expand Bishop dial-a-ride
service hours during the academic year to provide service to/
from Cerro Coso College
• Implement an outdoor recreation pilot program with service up the Bishop Creek drainage and, possibly, to Whitney
Portal.
Helm said additionally, an
important element of this study
was to identify stable funding
sources for operations and capital improvements of transit services. As a whole, this study
provides a comprehensive strategy of short-range service, capital, and institutional improvements, with a supporting financial and implementation plan.

Abusive daughter should be reported
Dear Annie: After my
mother died 10 years ago,
Dad asked his four daughters what to do with the
small cabin he owned upstate.
Three of us told him to sell
it. My oldest sister, “Charlene,”
however, asked if she could
use it as a vacation home.
She said she would help pay
the property taxes and make
sure it was taken care of, in
exchange for exclusive use
and enjoyment of the property. Dad agreed.
Well, Charlene rarely paid
the taxes and did not take
care of the property at all.
Dad retired three years ago,
and told Charlene he needed
to sell the place. In response,
she placed two mechanics
liens against it, stating that
she’d put thousands of dollars of “work” into the cabin
and that Dad had promised
her the deed. Neither of these
things is true and she has no
documentation to support
her claims.
When we finally gained
access to the house, there
were holes in the floor and
the roof was falling off. We
took pictures of the damage.
There was a hearing and a
dismissal, then an appeal
and more liens and more
hearings and more appeals.
We thought it was over last
year, but we just received
another summons to appear
before a different judge.
Meanwhile, we cannot sell
the cabin until this is
resolved.
My father is a fair man
who had planned to split his
estate equally between his
daughters. Since this lawsuit
started, he has disowned
Charlene and now lives in
near poverty due to all of the
legal fees. This is so hurtful.
Dad supported Charlene,
paid for her college education and two weddings. Now
she is killing him one lawsuit
at a time, all because she is
so greedy. How can we pro-

HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY
As Mercury dances with a powerhungry Pluto in Capricorn, ambition
brings mixed feelings. Many wonder if
it’s callow to strive for the lofty.
Considering that many of our dreams
don’t even come from us, and Destiny
has a way of kicking us into a calling,
maybe wonder, worry and doubt are
futile. The heart wants what it wants.
Go get it.
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
The task at hand may be basic, but
that doesn’t mean it’s undeserving of
your best quality of attention. Judging
the work is pointless. Instead, make it
your goal to engage in the work as
intimately and as freely as possible.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Another reason to make yourself
happy is that after a smile broadens
your face it will broaden your whole
world. Unhappiness, on the other
hand, renders your life narrow, thin
and isolated.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The
old dream is no longer a good enough
fit. Time to go back to the drawing
board to map out the vision and goals
that you wish would define your life
these days. The step after that? Cut
out the wishing.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Guileless simplicity, mindful frugality,
selfless compassion – these are the
virtues that will hold you in good
stead today. There’s no one who
needs to be impressed and nothing
to gain from showing off.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Healthy
relationships are founded on excellent
communication. It’s hard to change
the tone of the relationship once it’s
set. With that in mind, be as honest as
possible. How good is the communication really?
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). A
few phone calls will start the day’s
action. Interesting opportunities and
special connections abound. Like an
expert salesperson, you feel drawn to
the places where the leads are.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Different people bring out different
sides of you. You’ll like the side that a
Capricorn or Taurus highlights. These
Holiday Mathis
signs need your social savvy. This is a
rare occasion when you actually
should give unsolicited advice.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Busy, in-demand and a little overworked, you might be overlooking
some obvious bit of healthy living. Are
you drinking enough water? Sleeping
enough? A small effort will get you
back on track.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). While doing the same thing
you’ve been doing for months now,
you’ll suddenly get a rush of attention.
This is fun, but why now? That part is
out of your control, so don’t ask, just
enjoy it.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
The goals that are right for you will not
require you to alter your values or
change your cherished routines. Just
know that however tall the order, it’s
the lowly things you hold to that will
ultimately deliver it.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
More often than not, life’s tests are
pop quizzes. Embrace the surprise; do
your best. However this is graded, the
results will bring a deeper understanding of what you know and what you
still need to learn.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Are you really going to remember,
with great satisfaction and pride, the
instance in which you resisted great
temptation? Perhaps. But it’s more
likely you’ll quietly and unmemorably
avoid trouble.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (May 12).
You have a very free approach to
relationships this year, allowing for
people to be vividly themselves
around you. This lifting of the rules will
result in great breakthroughs, adventures and general ease. Financial
resources multiply this month and
next. July shows you finally victorious
in what has been a long trial. Scorpio
and Capricorn adore you. Your lucky
numbers are: 6, 30, 15, 4 and 9.
WEEKEND LOVE FORECAST:
ARIES: Your more elevated tastes will
be serviced. Oh happy day! TAURUS:
Romantic connection will start with an
intriguing, playful conversation.
GEMINI: You will do well with a person who has clear wants and puts
some swagger behind them.
CANCER: You’re nice, but not so nice
that you’ll finish last. Perfect! LEO: Opt
for a casual get together and you’ll
learn much more about your date
than you would in a formal setting.
VIRGO: If you want to know what
someone is really like, pay attention to
the way they treat those who are in
lowlier positions. LIBRA: You are
complete, whole in yourself and free
of excessive need or heaviness. Date
the same. SCORPIO: Your work makes
you happy. Truth-telling time: Does
your love make you as happy as that?
SAGITTARIUS: Friends influence you
on matters of the heart. Just make
sure you like the example before you
follow the advice. CAPRICORN: If
you’re having to fix a person’s financial
or emotional problems now, what
kind of support system will this person
really be for you later? AQUARIUS:
The care and sense of fun you put
into your personal appearance will
pay off in interesting ways. PISCES:
Play matchmaker to a friend now and
you’ll avoid third-wheel awkwardness
later.

Please tell “Fed Up” not to
try to force her brother to be
someone else. She should
take him in the smallest
doses she can, and chuckle
to herself later about his
insecurities.

Dear Sisters: As long as
Charlene keeps filing new
lawsuits, your father is stuck.
She, too, is incurring legal
fees, but may believe Dad
will give up first. If the cabin
is worth substantially more
than the liens, it might be
possible for Dad to get a
clean title and sell it, as long
as money is left in escrow to
pay for litigation. (Talk to
Dad’s attorney.) But we hope
you will report Charlene for
elder abuse, because forcing
Dad into poverty fits the bill.
Contact Adult Protective
Services in Dad’s area, or call
the Eldercare Locator at
1-800-677-1116.
Dear Annie: I am responding to “Fed Up Sister,” whose
younger brother only contacts her to brag about how
much money he has, how
great his kids are, etc. She’s
ready to cut off ties.
I grew up with a friend
like that. He alienated every-

the relationship in a way that
doesn’t make her resentful.
Thanks.

one with his bragging, and as
the years progressed, I
became one of the very few
he could still call a friend. It
takes great effort to listen to
a person who is so insecure,
but it is extremely generous
to continue. I know my friend
isn’t likely to change. He may
mellow for brief periods, but
his lack of confidence will
take over eventually.

DISADVANTAGED BUSINESS ENTERPRISE
This project is subject to Title 49 CFR 26. The Trona Wildrose Roadway Reconstruction and Rehabilitation Project involves
federal funds. Therefore, Disadvantage Business Enterprise (DBE) provisions apply to these projects. The project has a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) contract goal of 6.4 percent.
The contractor, subcontractor, or the sub-recipient of subcontractor shall not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national
origin, or sex in the performance of the contract.
The contract is subject to, and incorporates by reference, the provisions of Public Contract Code Section 22300, pursuant to
which the contractor is permitted to substitute securities for earned retentions or have them placed in escrow at the contractor's expense.
The contract is also subject to the State Contract nondiscrimination and compliance requirements pursuant to Government
Code Section 12990, et seq.
Pursuant to Section 1773 of the Labor Code, to which this contract is subject, the prevailing wage per diem rates in Inyo
County have been determined by the Director of the State Department of Industrial Relations. These wage rates appear in the
Department of Transportation publication entitled General Prevailing Wage Rates. Future effective wage rates, which have
been predetermined and are on file with the State Department of Industrial Relations, are referenced, but not printed, in said
publication. Such rates of wages are also on file with the State Department of Industrial Relations and the offices of the Public
Works Department of the County of Inyo and are available to any interested party upon request.
Attention is directed to the federal minimum wage rate requirements of this project.

‘Captain America: Civil War’
Facts: Marvel Studios produced this film. The main
characters of the film are
Chris Evans as Steve Rogers/
Captain America, Robert
Downey Jr. as Tony Stark/
Iron Man, Scarlett Johansson
as Natasha Romanoff/Black
Widow, and Sebastian Stan
Bryce Lyons
as Bucky Barnes/Winter
Columnist
Soldier. “Captain America:
Civil War” made $179,139,142 the opening weekend. The
directors of this film are Anthony and Joe Russo. “Captain
America: Civil War” is two hours and 27 minutes long. The
motto of the film is “Divided We Fall.” “Captain America:
Civil War” was filmed in Atlanta, Ga. This film was the 75th
anniversary of Captain America. “Captain America: Civil
War” is the longest Marvel film.
Fun Fact: Chris Evans is also in a film called
“Snowpiercer” with Ed Harris.
Opinion: Marvel has done it again, this was a great movie
and the Russo Brothers did a great job with “Captain
America: The Winter Soldier” and even did a better job with
“Captain America: Civil War.” I liked how this movie made
you pick sides. I went for Captain America and my friend
went for Iron Man. Ant-Man was really funny in the film. I
loved the last Ant-Man movie and I’m really excited for the
next Ant-Man movie. Spider Man was also awesome in “Civil
War.” Tom Holland did a great job as Spider Man. He is
probably my favorite Spider Man and I can’t wait to see the
new Spiderman movie. I have no complaints about this film
and I really don’t want to include any spoilers. I could
watch “Captain America: Civil War” all day.

Tight Lines
Myriad of choices accompany fishing season
The 2016 fishing season
has just started. It’s like
Christmas. It’s the anticipation of the gifts that makes
it exciting. There are all
kinds of fishing opportunities that have been dormant
until now. It’s trying to
decide which ones to
explore that creates the
excitement associated with
opener. Do I chase spawners? Do I fish the year
round waters that have had
my interest all winter? Do I
revisit old tried and true
waters? Do I explore new
waters? Do I unfold the
mysteries of fly fishing to
the uninitiated?
Two weeks into the new
fishing season and I’ve
begun to explore the treasures of a new fishing season.
Three of the first four
days of the season had me
teaching kids the art of fly
fishing.
Opening weekend found
me and my fellow fly fishers introuducing 20 five to
12 year olds to fly fishing at
Bishop Park as part of the
City of Bishop’s Fish Camp.
The kids learned how to
cast, tie a fly fly fishing
entomology, and safety.
They had the opportunity to use their new found
skills on the fish that call
Bishop Park Pond home.
This was the slowest fishing
day of the five years of Fish
Camp. Carp, blue gill and
trout were caught. Some big
trout were hooked but
never landed. Some fly fishers did well and some got
skunked. The kids were
introduced to the finicky
world of fly fishing.
This is the first year that
Fish Camp sold out all 20
spots. Look for a second
fish camp latter this spring
or this fall.
Tuesday and Wednesday
of the first week of the season had the fifth through
Fred Rowe
Columnist
eighth grade Round Valley
students fishing on the
lower Owens River in the
catch and release section of
the wild trout waters. Due
to a work conflict I was
only able to fish on
Tuesday with the seventh
and eighth graders.
We went to gate one and
turned the kids loose on a
quarter mile of stream.
They were armed with indicators, nymphs and lots of
weight to keep the flies
bouncing of the substrate
where the trout live and
feed. There was one instructor for every two anglers.
This allowed the kids the
hands-on opportunity to
catch wild brown trout. Fish
were hooked, lost, landed
and missed. Everyone had a
good time and several students caught their first
trout on a fly.
Tuesday after the Round
Valley kids retuned to
school I stayed and fished
for an hour. The river is
flowing fast but is still fishable if you can get your
nymphs down on the bottom of the river. I used my
Czech rig with a burlap caddis, stoner (little yellow
stone fly imitation), and
olive quill body RS2. All
three flies fooled wild
browns from six to fourteen inches. You have to be
able to wade in the fast cur-
Week begins with
mixed results for

In a back and forth game,
the Bishop Lady Broncos
ended up taking a loss against
Frazier Mountain on Tuesday,
by a final score of 11-9.

“The game was very back
and forth,” said Stacy Van
Nest, BUHS athletic director.
“We came from behind, broke
the tie, lost the lead, got it
back, and lost the lead. The
girls never gave up we just
needed more innings to string
hits together.”
The Lady Broncos are now
5-2 in league play with a final
game today at Kern Valley.
The first pitch is set for 3:15
p.m.
Bishop JV softball
Frazier Mountain fell to the
Bishop Lady Broncos JV team
Tuesday by a final score of
21-6.
Bishop’s Selia Amisone was
the winning pitcher,
Lady Broncos Gracie Soto,
Corie
Campbell,
Jenna
Andersen, Amisone and
Cassidy Moffett all had multiple hits.
“With this win the worst
the JV team can do this year is
tie for first in league with
Kern Valley,” said coach Patty
Cummings. “If Bishop beats
Kern Valley on Thursday they
will be the champs.”
Bishop JV Baseball
Bishop Broncos JV baseball
team won a tight game against
Trona on Monday by a final
score of 6-5.
The JV boys scored two
runs in the seventh inning
taking a 6-5 lead. Jalen

in the bottom of the seventh
completing the come-frombehind win.

Thursday found me on
the upper Owens River
chasing down a lead that
the cutthroats of Crowley
Lake were migrating
through the river to the
spawning gravels. We ended
up at the first gate above
Benton Crossing Bridge. We
parked the car and went for
a walk to see if we could
spot any of the migrating
cutthroats. A couple of hundred yard walk down
stream confirmed that
there were spawners in the
river. We hustled back to
the truck, donned waders
and rigged the rods.
I decided to go up
stream and found a hole
full of migrating cutthroats.
I fished for a couple of
hours landing several two
to four pounders. It was a
great day on the water
despite the gale force wind
that showed up mid morning.
This section of the river
is managed to release
spawning trout during the
regular fishing season. Only
two fish under 16 inches
can be kept. These spawning fish represent the
future trout populations of
Crowley Lake cutthroats.
Wading anglers should
avoid reds, areas of the bot-

tom turned up by spawning
trout. Walking through the
reds can kill eggs. Not every
angler fishes for spawners.
Some fly fishers feel that
the trout should be left
alone when they are spawning. When fishing for
spawners be sure to respect
the fishery.
The season is not quite
two weeks old and I’ve
already enjoyed the fly fishing that the Eastern Sierra
has to offer. I’ve revisited
some old stand by’s, fished
some new fisheries to me
and can’t wait to explore all
that this new season has to
offer.
