The giant pumpkins, silly pirates, “Chance Gang” cowboys, the Witch of Ardenwood and more will be haunting the woods at Ardenwood Historic Farm in Fremont for the 25th year. The “Haunted Railroad” takes your family on a fun, roundtrip ride through the haunted forest at Ardenwood. The train ride is “spooky,” not scary (nothing will jump out or otherwise frighten young children); the ride is designed especially for families with children under 12. You will see live actors playing the characters, with colorful Halloween inflatables and giant pumpkins in between scenes.

In 1848, sisters Maggie and Kate Fox of upstate New York convinced their mother and a neighbor that a dead man was communicating with them by rapping on their bedroom wall. The event was just the beginning of their long career (with their oldest sister, Leah, a purported medium) demonstrating to believing audiences their ability to communicate with spirits. The Civil War with its immense casualties drove Americans to seek comfort in speaking again to departed loved ones, and by the 1920s spiritualism was at its height as those in mourning once again sought those who perished in the Great War and the Spanish Flu epidemic. The claims of a reality outside normal channels of perception, the “paranormal,” did not go unstudied. In 1881 Edmund Dawson Rogers founded the Society for Psychical research in England and an American version was founded just four years later. Those institutions approached extraordinary experience scientifically, but their work was not publicly well known. In the popular continued on page 6

DETROIT (AP), Tesla Inc. is recalling 11,000 Model X SUVs worldwide because their rear seats might not lock into place. The recall involves vehicles with fold-flat second row seats made between Oct. 28, 2016, and Aug. 16, 2017. Tesla believes only about 3 percent of the recalled vehicles have the issue. The company says some cables in the seat may have been improperly tightened, which prevents the left seat from locking in an upright position. If it’s not properly locked, it could move forward during a crash. The Palo Alto, California-based automaker says it has seen no reports of injuries from the issue, which was discovered during internal testing. Tesla began informing customers about the recall on Oct. 12. Owners can take their Model X to a dealer for repairs or contact Tesla’s mobile repair units.

Raiderettes appear at Fremont health fair

SUBMITTED BY MIKE TAYLOR

Several members of the Raiderettes cheer squad participated in a “Crucial Catch” health fair at the Fremont Senior Center last week to support the Tri-City Health Center in partnership with the American Cancer Society and the National Football League. The focus of the fair was to promote health equity and address cancer screening disparities in the community. Tri-City Health Center serves some of the most underserved women in the Tri-City area, many of whom encounter significant barriers to accessing cancer screening services. Activities included health information booths, in family-friendly games, and giveaways. The Raiderettes staffed a photo booth, distributed Raiders giveaways and assisted American Cancer Society staff in directing women to the mammography imaging mobile unit where the participants received cancer screenings.

Please join us for a reception commemorating the 200th Anniversary of the Birth of Bahá’u’lláh We invite you to join us, and over 5 million Baha’is worldwide, to a gathering celebrating the bicentennial of the birth of Baha’u’llah, the Founder of the Baha’i Faith. On October 21st & 22nd, 2017, in some 100,000 localities worldwide, Baha’is will celebrate this event and we invite you to join our local events in Hayward and Fremont. A key message of Baha’u’llah’s life and teachings is that the time has arrived for the unity of the entire human race – a unity not forced upon it by external forces, but by the establishment of justice through the internalization of a simple concept – that all humans are brothers and sisters whose task in this life is to carry forward an ever-advancing civilization. The teachings of Baha’u’llah have provided us the context to understand the upheavals of past years and have provided our souls with solace. It is our hope that we can strengthen our bonds of friendship and understanding that will help all of us in effecting positive changes in our society that we all seek.
