REMINISCE SUNDAY, JULY 30, 2006 – A-3 Editor: Jody Martinez, 468-3517 The Ukiah Daily Journal [email protected] THIS WAS NEWS 50 YEARS AGO JODY MARTINEZ ... Construction of Coyote Dam begun

25 years ago Thursday, July 30, 1981 Ukiah Daily Journal OUNTY COMES UP $4 MILLION SHORT. Mendocino County supervisors finished six days of public budget hearings yesterday with few cuts, a whopping deficit, and plans for more effective sessions next August. CThe figures add up to real problems for the board. At their present rate of income and spending, they will come $4 million short by this time next year. That loss can be offset by $1.8 million in carryover from this year, and may be compounded by additional federal and state cuts as their budgets come through. But any way you add it up, the county is looking at a deficit that can only be avoided by substantial cuts in staff and services. The main items yesterday included the sheriff’s department and a second look at Mendocino Community Hospital. Sheriff Tom Jondahl, director of the county’s third largest department, got most of the $2,219,095 he requested. “There’s a clear commitment from the board to law enforcement,” he said. ——— ALTERED STATES? YOU MAY NOT GO APE, BUT UKIAH NOW OFFERS THE BENEFITS OF SENSORY ISOLATION. You’ve seen it in the film “Altered States,” but now you can experience it “right here in River City,” because a sensory isolation tank has come to town. Steve Scully, coordinator of the Mendocino Alcohol Project, and a group of Ukiah residents, joined together last winter to form the “Sensory Isolation Cooperative” and acquire a tank. After months of time and a healthy output of energy, the tank is in operation at last. Imagine floating on a quiet sea on a buoyant surface. There is no light and no outside noise. At last a chance to be relaxed. The latest thing to hit the public since hot tubs, the tank is a light-tight box filled with Epsom Salts-laden water. The chamber is designed to reduce “sensory input” and provide profound relaxation for the user. “I had a sensation of moving backwards through space. It felt incredible,” said Farida Krauss, who was one of the first to make a test dunk. Photo provided courtesy of Paige M. Poulos “You’re going to be a natural – a real tanker,” Scully told her.
