Double appeals on Cool Dollar General denied Eric Jaramishian Staff writer Two appeals concerning a proposed Dollar General in the town of Cool further extended the conversation on the project but were ultimately denied in a 3-2 vote by El Dorado County supervisors last week. The project can now move forward so long as it meets conditions set by the El Dorado County Planning Commission. The appeals came after the Planning Commission’s May 13 acceptance of the project’s design and final
environmental impact report. While the commission gave developers an OK, it also added certain conditions such as the requirement to construct a 4-foot-wide asphalt pedestrian path along Northside Drive from Highway 49 to the project’s driveway and to construct a Class I bike path instead of a Class II bike path. Woodcrest Real Estate Ventures, the applicant, filed one of the appeals and the other is a a joint effort between the Divide Preservation Society and Cool Pilot Hill Advisory Committee. The appeals were reviewed

at the June 29 Board of Supervisors meeting. Woodcrest’s appeal contends the conditions added violate federal and state laws, claiming conditions imposed by the Planning Commission are technologically and financially infeasible, the appeal states. The second appeal states the Planning Commission’s approval of the project violates the California Environmental Quality Act, the county’s General Plan and that the certification of the EIR violates CEQA since the project may impact traffic, including pedestrian and

Noose is loose
Eric Jaramishian Staff writer SACRAMENTO — Assemblyman Kevin Kiley has announced a bid for the office of governor in the election to recall Gov. Gavin Newsom. This announcement follows the publication of an open letter by Orrin Heatlie, lead proponent of the Newsom recall, asking 36-year-old Kiley to enter the race. “I’ve said I’m ready to play whatever role will do the most to get our movement across the finish line,” Kiley said. “After hearing from tens of thousands of Californians, I’m convinced that role is to replace Gavin Newsom as governor.” Kiley, whose district includes the western end of El Dorado County, was first elected to the state Assembly in 2016. In his last reelection he received the most votes of any Republican in PLACE ADDRESS LABEL HERE
Kevin Kiley California history. Kiley has said he is the only 100%, citizen-backed legislator, refusing all donations from special interests. In his five years in the Legislature he has authored new laws on freedom of speech, artificial intelligence, privacy, criminal justice reform, school safety and protections for sexual assault victims. Kiley penned the book “Recall Newsom: The Case Against America’s Most Corrupt Governor,” which was published in January. Kiley’s campaign will kick off with a rally Saturday at 10 a.m. on the west steps of the Capitol in Sacramento. The recall election is set for Sept. 14. Administering the election will cost taxpayers $276 million, according to a cost estimate by the Department of Finance. The filing deadline for candidates is July 16. As of July 6, 58 individuals had filed replace Newsom.

The city of Placerville logo has lost the noose depicted hanging from the tree behind the gold miner since the 1970s. City staff has been busy placing the new, nooseless logo on city properties in town after the City Council unanimously decided to nix the noose in April. A controversial decision, some residents either felt the noose is a symbol of violence or a symbol of Old Hangtown’s history of vigilante justice in Gold Rush days.

PITTSBURGH, PENN. — In its second announcement of 2021, the Carnegie Hero Fund recognized 18 civilians who risked their lives for others. Each will receive the Carnegie Medal, North America’s highest honor for civilian heroism. Among those honored is Rescue resident Scott D. Morrison. On Aug. 13, 2019, from inside his home, Morrison heard a sedan collide with a boulder and tree about a quarter-mile away near the intersection of Deer Valley and Rough Ridge roads. The vehicle came to rest upright but ignited dry grass around it; its 39-year-old driver, Raymond M. Jerrett III, remained unconscious

It’s with deepest sorrow that I have to announce the passing of my beloved son. Michael was born Sept. 24, 1982 and passed away June 28. The world has lost a gentle, kind soul.

Rick Wickham
Jane Ann Henderson
Rick Wickham passed away on the Fourth of July in his home, surrounded by his loving wife of 43 years and all of his children. Richard Elwood Wickham was born on March 17, 1947 to parents Charles and Addie. He was raised in Carmichael with his sister Sherry and the two have remained close in proximity and heart their entire lives. Rick graduated from La Sierra High School in 1965, married his high school sweetheart Gloria Bailey and was fighting the war in Vietnam by 1966. After returning from Vietnam, Rick started his career in the poultry industry where enjoyed a successful career with Foster Farms, Pilgrim’s Pride and Sanderson Farms over the next 21 years. Rick and Gloria’s two sons Troy and Billy were born in 1969 and 1971. Although he and Gloria’s marriage ended in 1976, they have remained very close friends their entire lives. In 1978 he married Janice Michaels and the two have been madly in love ever since. Their daughter Chelsea was born in 1978 and they adopted Michele as a daughter in 1987. In 1989 Rick and Jan were approached about the potential of planting vineyards on their property. This began a journey that would become Meyers Ranch Vineyard Management Company. By the time that Rick retired and turned the company over to his son Troy, they managed over 48 vineyards and had earned a reputation for quality and attention to detail that few other companies could match. Those who knew Rick know that his strongest traits were his generosity, his ability to forgive and his absolute insistence on seeing value in people that other’s could not. Along with his wife and kids already mentioned, Rick is survived by two nephews, six grandchildren and one great-grandchild. Troy, Billy, Chelsea and Michele were all standing by Jan and Rick’s side as he peacefully passed away at 9:30 in the morning on July 4. A memorial service will be held at 2 p.m. Sunday, July 11 at The Lyon’s Club in Diamond Springs located on the corner of Missouri Flat and Pleasant Valley Roads, 4701 Missouri Flat Road, Diamond Springs, Calif.
In honor of our mother, Jane Ann Henderson, nee Jordan, we celebrate her life well-lived. Born Sept. 25, 1922, she was an “accidental Californian.” With a UP Railroad Engineer father, her first vehicle was a train. She was an independent youth: carrying her cello miles on street cars and buses to lessons. She enjoyed dancing her heart out, often unbeknownst to her parents. She was at Cal Berkeley when World War II began and was called home by her mother. In 1943, Jane Ann enlisted in the 4th class of the Women’s Marine Reserve Corp. After her honorable discharge, she moved to Willow Creek, Calif., to teach grades 1-4 in the two-room school. It was there she joined the grange and met her husband, John Alexander Henderson. They homesteaded 10 acres next to his family ranch, built their home and brought Jeanine, Jocelyn and Jennifer into the world. Jane Ann learned about rural life from her mother-in-law, Caroline, who was born and raised on the ranch. Jane Ann loved all the home arts; sewing, canning and butchering chickens, as well as cooking. Her specialties were ciopino, individual meatloaves, lemon curd, angel food cake and 3-part divinity. Jane Ann gave her girls the gift of music, literature and trains. Once a year she took them to San Francisco for music, museums and shopping not available in rural Trinity County. Once the Hendersons moved to Placerville, Calif., she took them to the San Francisco Opera, giving them experiences they wouldn’t have had without her. Jane Ann’s original cello was destroyed in a move, years later a fellow teacher gave her two and she resumed lessons. She brought beautiful music to her home and community. She played in musicals and established a trio, Pegs and Pipes. In 1978, she retired from teaching to the tune “Take This Job and Shove It.” After John’s death in 1979, Jane Ann moved to Ashland, Ore. She played with Rogue Valley Symphony for 20 years, performing music she never dreamed of playing, retiring when she was 80. Jane Ann was thrilled when she played piano on Japanese TV and sang back-up at the Daedalus Project. She rarely said ‘no’ to a chance to play or sing. In her later years Jane Ann shared her love of books and music with her beloved partner, Reiny, singing together in Siskiyou Singers. They also shared their love of travel and went near and far with one another. She loved to travel with family and friends and was a great companion, building life-long friendships everywhere she went. Jane Ann was a member of our global community and patron of the arts. She was a charter member of Rogue Valley Habitat for Humanity. She volunteered at Ashland Food Bank, Women’s Health Center, the costume shop at OSF, Extended Circle, plus various literacy projects. She was a member of Church Women United and Presbyterian Women. Although she left us June 22, Jane Ann will always be our beloved mother; Nana to eight plus two, Great-Nana to nine, aunt and friend to those related by birth and those chosen. As matriarch of the family, she was a wonderful role-model and example of how to be human. She is in our hearts and right behind our shoulder. We love you, Mom, Nana, Jane Ann. She was preceded in death by her parents, Jim and Carie; brother Bill, and daughter Jeanine. Private interment is at a later date. In lieu of flowers or cards, the family encourages you to donate to any of her favorite causes in her memory.

EDSO: Sex offender cuts off GPS, walks onto campus Mountain Democrat staff A Cameron Park man and sex offender was arrested June 30 after he reportedly walked onto the Ponderosa High School campus and suspiciously sat near students at lunch. El Dorado County sheriff ’s officials say Nolan Simmons, 41, already had a warrant NOLAN out for his arrest for cutting his GPS monitor off the day before. It is a misdemeanor for a sex offender to enter school grounds without lawful business. It was the last day of the first semester of summer school for the 400 students on campus when
Simmons walked in. Some students notified school staff with later investigations revealing that Simmons sat close to multiple students eating lunch, according to sheriff ’s officials. The sheriff ’s school resource officer was dispatched and located Simmons on Meder Road, not too far from SIMMONS the Ponderosa campus. He was booked into jail in Placerville the same day. Simmons’ bail was not listed but in addition to the misdemeanor charge of unlawfully entering a school, he is charged with four felony parole violations. The Sheriff ’s Office praised students for reporting the suspicious behavior.

What Causes It?
Healthy Nerve Healthy Blood Vessels
Peripheral neuropathy is a result of damage to the nerves often causing weakness, pain, numbness, tingling, and may also lead to serious balance problems. Diseased Blood Vessels This damage is commonly caused by a lack of blood flow to the nerves in the hands and feet. If not properly treated this lack of blood flow may Nerves Shrivel when cause the nerves to degenerate. Blood Vessels Weak and Disappear As you can see in Figure 1, as the blood vessels surrounding the nerves become diseased they shrink and shrivel. This process hastens the flow of vital Figure 1 nutrients to the nerves required to remain healthy. When these nerves begin to “die” it could lead to balance problems, pain, numbness, tingling and burning symptoms in the hands and feet.
In order to effectively treat your neuropathy 3 factors must be determined. What is the underlying cause?
1
How much nerve damage has been sustained?

3
How much treatment will your condition require?
Drug Free Treatment Method
Placerville, CA – Currently the most common method most doctor’s recommend to treat neuropathy is with the use of prescription drugs. Although these drugs may temporarily reduce your symptoms they may cause a feeling of discomfort and in some cases lead to a variety of terrible unwanted side effects. We have a different method!
Our advanced treatment method has 3 main goals
1
Increase Blow flow
Stimulate small fiber nerves
2
3
Decrease brain based pain
The treatment to increase blood flow utilizes a specialized low-level light therapy (not to be confused with laser therapy) using light emitting diode technology. This technology was originally developed by NASA to assist in increasing blow flow. The low level light therapy is like watering a tree. The light therapy will allow the blood vessels to grow back around the peripheral nerves and provide them with the proper nutrients to heal and repair. It’s like adding water to a tree and seeing the roots grow deeper and deeper. The amount of treatment needed to allow the nerves to fully recover varies from person to person and can only be determined after a detailed neurological and vascular evaluation.

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE — Tahoe’s beaches were still blanketed in morning shadows when volunteers began plucking cigarette butts, bottle caps and beach toys out of the sand early after the holiday weekend. By noon, 235 enthusiastic volunteers had removed 1,456 pounds of litter from 10 Tahoe beaches and their surrounding areas as part of the League to Save Lake Tahoe’s annual July 5 Keep Tahoe Red, White and Blue Beach Cleanup. “People’s passion for protecting Lake Tahoe never ceases to amaze me, even after eight years of organizing cleanups like this one,” said Marilee Movius, community engagement manager for the League to Save Lake Tahoe, also known as Keep Tahoe Blue. “We had families and groups pass by, see what we were doing, drop their beach chairs and start to help. It goes to show that people want to do the right thing – they just need the opportunity.” Since 2013 the league’s July 5 cleanup has provided that opportunity for locals, visitors and businesses. For many participants, volunteering at a cleanup event shines a bright light on the threats facing Lake Tahoe, which leads them to become more involved in the lake preservation movement. By practicing lake-friendly habits, using the Citizen Science Tahoe app,
and getting involved in the league’s volunteer programs, anyone can join the Tahoe Blue-Gooder family. “Events like this are real eyeopeners,” said Casey Metkovich, a long-time Keep Tahoe Blue volunteer. “The lake is so beautiful, it’s easy to think it’s pristine. But when you learn more and look closer, the lake needs our help. And being that set of helping hands is so fulfilling.” Every year, the July 5 cleanup effort showcases the power of coordination and an engaged, caring community. Volunteers power the event, while agency and business partners set the stage by sponsoring cleanup sites that include Heavenly Mountain Resort and California Land Management (Nevada Beach); Kirkwood Mountain Resort and the city of South Lake Tahoe (Regan Beach); the Tahoe City Public Utility District and Trunk Show (Commons Beach); and California State Parks and Northstar California Resort (Kings Beach). “The lake is a wonderful gift that we all get to share, so we all have a responsibility to protect it – businesses included,” said Jerusha 275119 Hall, environmental planner with Vail Resorts, an event sponsor. “Vail Resorts is honored to be part of the Tahoe Blue-Gooder family.” Naomi Morgan, one of the league’s core volunteers who makes the trek down from Reno every July 5, echoed

California Matters
Gov. Newsom undercuts his credibility
G
ov. Gavin Newsom’s penchant for extravagant — and ultimately false — promises, predictions and claims of achievement makes him his own worst enemy. His tendency was exhibited even before he became governor, most DAN WALTERS notably in his ludicrous 2018 campaign pledge that he would solve California’s chronic housing shortage by constructing 3.5 million new units by 2025. A few months later, just after being inaugurated, he made another over-the-top promise that also haunts him, again illustrating how he self-inflicts wounds on his credibility. One of Newsom’s first acts as governor was to declare an aggressive new wildfire prevention program, saying, “Everybody has had enough” and declaring that the state’s approach “fundamentally has to change.” However, Capital Public Radio and National Public Radio’s California Newsroom recently reported An investigation finding a deep chasm between reality and into California Gov. what Newsom promised Gavin’s claims and later claimed to about wildfire have achieved. Their deep dive into prevention is a wildfire prevention new example of records “found how he undercuts the governor has misrepresented his his own credibility. accomplishments and even disinvested in wildfire prevention. The investigation found Newsom overstated, by an astounding 690%, the number of acres treated with fuel breaks and prescribed burns in the very forestry projects he said needed to be prioritized to protect the state’s most vulnerable communities. Newsom has claimed that 35 ‘priority projects’ carried out as a result of his executive order resulted in fire prevention work on 90,000 acres. But the state’s own data show the actual number is 11,399.” Surfacing as the state faces another destructive fire season and Newsom faces a recall election, the revelations again portray a governor whose pronouncements tend to be as untrustworthy as they are self-serving. That tendency was often on display during the many months in which he single-handedly managed the state’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Newsom was eager to show leadership by announcing, with some fanfare, deals to acquire much-needed masks to battle the disease. However, as CalMatters later reported, “In one case, the state yanked its money back after bankers raised suspicions about a $456.9 million wire transfer to a company called Blue Flame, an intended down payment for 100 million N95 masks (and) a

Letters to the Editor Infrastructure EDITOR: here seems to be lots of political rhetoric about separating budgets for infrastructure and social programs. The United States is one huge corporation. Infrastructure investments are made to improve productivity to produce more profits to increase the portion of those profits allocated to taxes to improve and expand social programs, etc. If there is no productivity improvement there cannot be payments for social programs except by increasing debt or increasing tax rates ... which will necessarily reduce investment capital ... which will reduce infrastructure investment ... which will prohibit more funds for social programs unless we print more money ... which will produce inflation that will make social programs cost more. Whew! It is all about sequence and timing. If we keep electing public officials and hiring media experts who don’t understand this we will become Venezuela and need a dramatic increase in social program expenditures. Simple?

Inspect your water well EDITOR: alifornia, like much of the West, is facing a year of extreme drought, which is causing some issues for residential water wells across the state. Water wells are a reliable, affordable and safe source of water for more than a million California residents and, when properly maintained, can provide clean water for over 20 years. During periods of extreme drought, an ongoing issue facing some homeowners is their well “running dry,” or not producing sufficient water for their household. Water wells that stop producing water can cause frustration and concern for homeowners and one of the best ways to prevent this is by having your water well inspected and water level tested by a professional water well contractor. Water wells can slow their production for various reasons and just because the water has stopped flowing does not mean the groundwater source has been depleted. The California Groundwater Association represents the state’s water well contractors, pump installers, manufacturers, suppliers and groundwater professionals. Our members are currently experiencing a higher-than-average number of service calls and it is not uncommon for
C
some water well contractors to schedule drilling or inspections up to two months in advance. So, it is important to act today to ensure your water well continues to operate properly and its water levels are sufficient. To learn more about how droughts may be impacting your water well you can visit wellowner. org/testyourwaterlevels. To find a qualified water well contractor to test your water levels visit groundh2o.org/memberdirectory. Remember, maintaining a water well is the sole responsibility of the property owner. Don’t wait until it’s too late to have your water well inspected by a professional water well contractor. DAVE SCHULENBERG Executive director, California Groundwater Association
Missteps EDITOR: ohn Garon wrote a letter titled “Alger’s fearmongering” in the June 23 edition of the Mountain Democrat. In it he stated that the Three Strikes law was a draconian and inhumane Nixon-era “three strikes law.” Sorry, Mr. Garon, here is a quote, easily verifiable on the web: “In 1994 California overwhelmingly passed Proposition 184, the initiative proposed to the voters had the title of Three Strikes and You’re Out. The law’s passage was triggered by the vicious murder of Polly Klaas in 1993. Klaas, who was 12 at the time, was snatched from her home, raped and strangled to death by Richard Allen Davis. Davis had a long and violent criminal record.” California voters passed this law, Mr. Garon, not some federal, Nixon-era garbage that you promote. What a load of hogwash! I say we err on the side of not letting criminals with long records out too early, instead of being “woke” and nice and letting them out before they have paid their debts to society for the heinous crimes they commit. Not once, not twice, but three times, Mr. Garon. Mr. Garon’s letter started out with “A little knowledge is a dangerous thing.” I believe he has proven his own point. GEORGE ALGER Placerville

Then and now — living in some interesting times
L
ately I’ve been reminded of my first semester of East Asian history at UC, Davis. I had Professor Liu. I had Professor Lo the next year. Actually, I guess I had them both several more times over the next couple of years. CHRIS In the first semester we learned about an ancient Chinese curse. Professor Liu chuckled to himself as he wrote it on the chalkboard. He chuckled quite a bit and loved cracking jokes as we tried to catch up. “May you live in interesting times” sounds like a good will, good wishes kind of salutation but, of course, it really isn’t. Behind the words lies an endless trove of earthquakes, famine, disasters of biblical proportions, war, tumult, pestilence and plague. Not unlike last week when you think
about. And this week looks to be shaping up to match it. If you’re of a certain age, you probably remember fantasizing with your friends about having a telephone that let you and the person you were talking to see each other. Like on Flash Gordon and DALEY Batman and later on Star Trek. Superman had the X-ray vision so he didn’t need a picture phone. Pretty darn cool. Pretty darn modern. Pretty darn scary knowing that now everyone from Russian criminal gangs to the CIA to rogue Boy Scouts and Bombay-based scammers can hack the heck out of your phone. And you might never know it. Unless it’s: “Cyber ransomware holding for you on line one.” “Hi, this is Chris. I’ll bring you a

Pretty darn scary knowing that now everyone from Russian criminal gangs to the CIA to rogue Boy Scouts and Bombaybased scammers can hack the heck out of your phone. dollar three-eighty in a brown bag to the park at midnight, meanwhile, may you live in interesting times Sucka’ ha ha ha.” If only it were that easy. When you daydreamed about that luxury retirement condo in Florida, you worried about which sunscreen SPF you might need. No thought about how to escape the eighth floor in the middle of the night with the building crumbling all around you. Only to come face to face with a Cat 1 or 2 hurricane when you opened the front door. And you thought you’d shoot a two-under-par later that day? Welcome to “interesting times.” After nearly two decades, our troops are finally coming home from Afghanistan. Yay! And the Taliban can hardly wait to start slaughtering
“traitors” in general, disfiguring women and girls in particular. “No wait!” All of which just reminded me of the classic “Merry Minuet” as performed by the Kingston Trio throughout the 1960s. It’s as if you put the “interesting times” curse to music that resonates all these years later. Checked the reservoir levels lately? Mark Twain summed up the American West in seven words, “Whiskey’s for drinkin’ — water’s for fightin’ over.” Some say it wasn’t Twain at all, but if it wasn’t it shoulda been. Like a lot of other things that shoulda been. Hey, may you live in really uninteresting times. Chris Daley is a biweekly columnist for the Mountain Democrat.

subsequent deal to buy N95 masks from a company called BYD was delayed because federal health officials did not initially certify the masks.” Repeatedly, Newsom would claim progress on COVID-19, lift some restrictions and then reimpose them when infections spiked, causing public confusion, devastating small businesses and fueling the recall drive. The public radio reporters who uncovered the holes in Newsom’s wildfire prevention claims made numerous efforts to obtain the governor’s explanation, but were rebuffed. Instead, the head of the state’s firefighting agency, Thom Porter, “acknowledged the figures cited by Newsom were incorrect and took responsibility for the governor’s misstatements. Porter, who stood behind Newsom at a series of press conferences where the governor boasted of his accomplishments, said Cal Fire had neither ‘done our job in educating the public, nor the governor’s office’ about how to talk about its wildfire
prevention efforts.” It’s a time-dishonored Capitol tradition: Something embarrasses a governor and an underling publicly shoulders the blame. It happened last year when Dr. Sonia Angell, head of the Department of Public Health, resigned after officials revealed a backlog of infection records that undercut Newsom’s public claims of progress against COVID-19. Wildfires are a matter of life and death, and the Legislature owes the public a complete assessment of what’s being done, or not done, to mitigate the peril. Legislative leaders should order state Auditor Elaine Howle, whose independence and thoroughness are unquestioned, to lay out the facts. Otherwise, they are complicit in the deception.

Carrick sees checkers again at Placerville Speedway Gary Thomas Placerville Speedway One of the largest crowds in recent memory at Placerville Speedway was treated to an outstanding winged 360 sprint car main event Sunday night, which ultimately saw Tanner Carrick perform a clean sweep for his second straight win at the track. One year after hosting nobody in the stands on Fourth of July, fans returned in a big way for racing on the quarter-mile. Also picking up big wins at the Freedom Fireworks showcase were Placerville Speedway studs Dan Jinkerson in the limited late models and Nick Baldwin with the pure stocks. A total of 62 cars competed amongst the three divisions on Sunday evening. The 25-lap main event put forth some of the most exciting racing of the season and began with rookie Landon Brooks jumping into the lead. The driver of the No. 34 held command in the feature until 14-yearold Oklahoman Ryan Timms began to challenge for the top spot. The pair traded the lead in thrilling fashion as the crowd roared their approval. Behind them things were hot and heavy as well with multiple slide jobs and close competition. Brooks eventually pulled back out to the lead as Timms got bound up on the cushion and dropped spots. As the race progressed Carrick put himself
solidly in second and had a shot at the end reminiscent of last week. Carrick then battled with Brooks before scooping up the top spot around lap 19, while bringing Shane Golobic along shortly after. Golobic had moved forward from his 10th starting spot and closed on Carrick over the final five laps but the 19-year-old from Lincoln hit his marks and crossed the checkered for his third victory of the season at Placerville Speedway. Golobic ended up second with Sean Becker putting on an excellent charge from 17th to third. The “Shark” was one to watch over the final laps — a superb run in the No. 83T. Ryan Robinson looked good again and came home fourth with Brooks rounding out the top five. The evening’s B-main went to Golobic, with the four eight-lap heat races captured by Tanner Carrick, Ryan Timms, Justyn Cox and Justin Sanders. As noted, Carrick earned a clean sweep of the night by also earning his third Fast Time Award of the year with a lap of 10.802. A total of 32 sprint cars competed Sunday. Diamond Springs racer Dan Jinkerson not only claimed victory in the limited late model main event, but he also overtook the Placerville Speedway point lead Sunday. The “Diamond Dynamite” had his way out front for much of the contest but did have to deal with a fast moving Jay Norton at one point, followed by

Just before the fireworks lit up the night sky at the El Dorado County Fairgrounds Sunday night Lincoln driver Tanner Carrick found himself in victory lane at Placerville Speedway. continued on Sunday evening. The pilot of the No. 17 machine sat in 12th at one point but kept his nose clean and progressively moved forward in the 20-lapper. Early on it was Chris McGinnis leading the field as drivers tried to find the preferred groove around the bullring. Once Baldwin maneuvered his way to the front however, he built up a steady advantage en route to his fifth victory of the season. McGinnis put together a fantastic run to finish second over Ken Bernstein, who also had a fine run on
Wayne Trimble, who carved his way forward. Several movers and shakers were seen but after 20 laps of competition it was Jinkerson who took the Ron Stahl checkered flag for his first limited late model triumph of the year. Wayne Trimble came home in second followed by Dan Brown Jr., first time late model competitor Andrew Pearce and Ray Trimble in the top five. Heat race wins were picked off by Jay Norton and Tyler Lightfoot. Oakley’s Nick Baldwin has had a fantastic season up to this point at Placerville Speedway and that

Independence Day. Jason Armstrong and youngster Jonny Walsh completed the top five. Rounding out the top10 were Cody Rickard, 16th starter Michael Murphy, Brad Myers, Kenneth Robles and Jimmy Bobbie. Placerville Speedway will present something a little different for race fans this Saturday when the inaugural Gold Dust Fever showcases an evening of U.S. Auto Club West Coast 360 sprint cars, USAC Western States midgets and wingless Bay Cities Racing Association Lightning Sprints. Gold Dust Fever will be just the second injected wingless 360 sprint car event at Placerville Speedway since 2017. Last October’s USAC West Coast 360 appearance was captured by Ryan Timmons, who goes into this weekend ranking third in points behind DJ Johnson and Austin Liggett. Brody Roa and Tanner Boul round out the top five. The USAC Western States Midgets portion of the event will be the first of two races at the track prior to the running of the Hangtown 100 in November. Liggett goes into Saturday leading the standings over Shannon McQueen, Blake Bower, Brody Fuson and David Prickett.

inside with his legs trapped in its center console area. Blocked by fire from accessing the driver’s door, Morrison, a 59-year-old retired diesel mechanic, ran to the front, passenger door, opened it and entered the vehicle. Flames engulfed the driver’s side and Jerrett’s clothing was burning. Morrison pulled Jerrett partially out of the vehicle, then freed Jerrett’s feet and removed him fully. He patted out flames on Jerrett’s clothing and dragged him farther from the car. Fellow hero Jacob Hathaway arrived on the scene and helped Morrison drag Jerrett over barbed wire and up to the road as emergency crews arrived. Eleven minutes after the initial emergency call made by Veronica Morrison, Scott’s wife, the vehicle was completely engulfed in flames. Veronica also helped the two victims by extinguishing the flames on their clothing. Jerrett was airlifted to a burn center for treatment of severe burns. Scott was also treated at an area hospital for smoke inhalation and second-degree burns. He recovered. Strangers before the accident, the Morrisons and Jerretts discovered they live less than a mile from each other and now frequently visit. “They’re like extended family now; we’re super close. I gained a great friend out of it. We were all super thankful for Scott,” Jerrett previously told Village

Life during a local award ceremony at the Rescue Fire Station last year, when El Dorado Hills/Rescue Fire Chief Maurice Johnson presented Scott with the Citizen of the Year award and Veronica with a Civilian Life Saving Award. Hathaway was also honored. “Thirty or 40 seconds later, I would never have gotten into that car,” Scott admitted. “Ever since then we’ve been good friends.” The Carnegie Medal is given throughout the U.S. and Canada to those who enter extreme danger while saving or attempting to save the lives of others. With this announcement, a total of 10,238 Carnegie Medals have been awarded since the Pittsburghbased Fund’s inception in 1904. Commission Chair Mark Laskow said each of the awardees or their survivors will also receive a financial grant. Throughout the 117 years since the fund was established by industrialistphilanthropist Andrew Carnegie, nearly $43 million has been given in one-time grants, scholarship aid, death benefits and continuing assistance. To nominate someone for the Carnegie Medal, complete a nomination form online or write to the Carnegie Hero Fund Commission, 436 Seventh Ave., Suite 1101, Pittsburgh, PA 15219.

continued discussing the project. The project application was first submitted in 2019 by Woodcrest. A design review permit was approved and a mitigation declaration was adopted by the Planning Commission May 28, 2020. That approval was appealed by the Divide Preservation Society and Cool Pilot Hill Advisory Committee and heard by the Board of Supervisors July 14, 2020, prompting supervisors to direct the applicant to obtain an EIR with focus on public service, safety, transportation and urban decay. The EIR showed three significant impacts: air quality and biological and cultural resources. The Planning Commission then approved the design review with the aforementioned modified conditions. That’s why the two appeals came to the Board of Supervisors. Parlin and District 2 Supervisor George Turnboo were the two dissenting votes.

horoscope by Holiday Mathis n today ARIES (March 21-April 19). If you stayed where you belong all of the time, your life would feel small and stale. Keep in mind that new things are inherently uncomfortable; better not to read anything more into it. Your zone of comfort is expanding. That’s all. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your body adapts to your moods and glues to your personality. Today your body’s unconscious language will express loudly what you want to convey and also what you may wish to keep silent. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Courage isn’t something you need to find or develop. You already have an entire swimming pool of it inside you. When it’s time to be brave, just dip your cup in and draw some up. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll learn a lot about someone through a typical, appropriate line of questioning. Off-the-wall, playful questions will teach you even more about the sensibility and humor (or lack thereof) you’re dealing with. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). There’s no call right now for a big change. What would it look like if the next 24 hours were a lot like your life, only happier? Imagining such a thing will show you where you could make a small but effective shift. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The opportunities will be swept up by those with a responsive attitude. Before you step into the arena, you’ll put yourself in the mindset to take in your surroundings, be decisive and swiftly act.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your mind is open, and your appetites are hearty. You’re primed to listen, learn and discover the outside world, led by a small internal voice of intuition. It’s the compass you can trust. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Keep in mind that some audiences are better than others. If you want the good ones, don’t pander and provide for the lesser ones. An engaged audience will bring their curiosity and much more to the room. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The thick of the drama is not an actionable position. Rise up. From a higher vantage, you’ll see what the situation needs and get ideas about how to serve the interests of those involved and form a suitable contribution. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). People will tend to do what is easy for them. The ones who do more are stronger and probably more experienced and versatile and still doing what’s easy for them. When people risk for you, it’s a gift worth acknowledging. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your fears and doubts are seductive. Ignore them. Keep coming back to your plan instead. Revisit; tweak; revel in it. The plan will excite you and galvanize your powers, sealing your every move together. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Like magicians engaging in the art of misdirection to pull off an illusion, people in relationships will direct attention to their contributions, talents and beneficial qualities... which is a small subfocus of all there is to be seen and known.

old Country Artists Gallery, an awardwinning artists’ cooperative in Placerville, celebrates its 29th anniversary this month by raising funds for Child Advocates of El Dorado County, an organization that trains volunteers to speak out and speak up in court for the needs of abused, neglected and at-risk children. Throughout the month of July, Gold Country Artists Gallery presents Childhood: The CASA Exhibition to draw attention to CASA’s outstanding work in the community. Gold Country Artists Gallery is also donating 10% of all gallery sales during July to benefit CASA. In addition, many of the artists at Gold Country Artists Gallery
generously donated their artwork directly to CASA, which is holding an online art auction of this work throughout July with all proceeds benefiting children in El Dorado County. Art lovers and potential bidders can view the auction at childhoodcasaexhibit. ggo.bid. Childhood: The CASA Exhibition features the work of 25 gallery artists with a diversity of interpretations of the show’s theme. In Barbie Smith’s “Childhood Days,” for example, a young girl plays hopscotch. Smith’s bold strokes and bright colors give the image a fresh animated energy as she captures the child mid-hop. Craig Koski’s wideangle photograph of the boardwalk in “Santa Cruz Funtimes” makes one feel giddy with excitement. The noises, the lights and the anticipation — mixed with a little fear — of getting on a thrill ride are all part of the experience at an amusement park
“Cones” by Debbie Claussen for kids of all ages and Koski’s view captures it in sharp focus. The intensely saturated primary colors of the buildings, the rides and the people’s clothing, all set against the brilliant
blue of the Pacific Ocean sky, appeal to the child in all of us. Marco Ippaso is an artist who is curious about things that interest teenagers and was delighted
by his daughter’s photograph of her own feet. Ippaso’s “Selfie,” done in chalk, gouache and pencil, captures a teen’s fascination with n

buttered and salty Tribute to Richard Donner
T
his week we lost a titan of cinema. Richard Donner, the acclaimed director of classics like “The Omen” (1976), Joshua B. Porter “Superman: The Movie” (1978), “The Goonies” Democrat correspondent (1985) as well as the “Lethal Weapon” series of films and hundreds of episodes of television died Monday at the age of 91. Donner has always been one of my favorite filmmakers. One of my earliest cinema memories is watching “Superman: The Movie.” I’m not sure if it’s the first film I ever watched all the way through (my mother claims it was “Bambi”), but I don’t have much recollection of others before it, save for other classic cartoons I no doubt watched. In an era when we are inundated with comic book movies at every turn, Donner’s “Superman” was the first. The godfather of the genre. All of the great superhero films owe an incredible amount of gratitude to what Donner accomplished in the late ’70s. It was not only a technical marvel for its time but took the source material as seriously as any drama. The filmmakers wanted the characters to be as real, truthful and relatable as possible. Only then would we truly believe a man can fly. This was the definition, as Donner loved to remind his cast and crew, of verisimilitude. “Superman: The Movie” showed me how a small boy could look to the stars and fly wherever he dreamt of going. As I grew up, a little film by the name of “The Goonies” placed my feet squarely on the ground with one of the best family-friendly action/adventure movies ever made. Donner’s talent for casting doesn’t come through any clearer than the ensemble he put together for this film, with almost every one of the young main cast going on to great success as adults. This includes Sean Astin, Corey Feldman, Josh Brolin and Martha Plimpton. I showed my 5-year-old the movie for the first time recently and he was enamored. Success. Achievement unlocked. After “Superman” and “The Goonies,” Donner directed the four blockbuster “Lethal Weapon”
films, which for my money remain the best buddycop action series in what has now become an oversaturated genre after the original film laid the groundwork. If you want a fun thrill ride, put on the original and “Lethal Weapon 2” this weekend. They still hold up. Donner continued to work until the mid-2000s. He was planning a fifth “Lethal Weapon” to be his swan song but passed before it could move forward into production next year. I sure would have loved to have seen one more from the man. His last movie was 2006’s “16 Blocks” and every year that ticked by I waited to get the news that he was getting behind the camera again. More than just the wonderful career of television and film, it was the type of director Donner was that inspired me most — that booming voice and loud laugh that reverberated through any interview or commentary track he did. This was a man who genuinely loved what he did and who he did it with, building lifelong friendships with those he collaborated with. All one has to do is search Google or Twitter to see the endless stories from former cast and crew, showing their love for the man who had become family to them after the cameras stopped rolling. They are beautiful tributes. Donner was fond of saying that he was essentially a traffic cop on set. This was a severe case of modesty, to be sure, but I can’t help but think he was brilliant enough to put the best people he could hire into a room and then get out of the way and let them showcase their talents, directing the “traffic” only when he saw it veering out of its lane. It was a good lesson for me when I was learning to become a filmmaker. I always keep those lessons in mind. Donner also inadvertently helped me with other aspects of filmmaking; Just recently, while casting a feature I directed, my producing partner and I chose a scene from “Superman” to check the chemistry of our two main actors when we were casting the film’s leading lady. The scene in question, written by Donner’s friend Tom Mankiewicz, is the famous “first date” between the Man of Steel and Louis Lane while the reporter interviewed him on the rooftop balcony of her apartment. It is a wonderful exercise in chemistry and character for any actor. It helped us immensely with the casting process and always brought a smile to my face the hundreds of times I heard it being performed by different actors last year.

Outside filmmaking, Donner dedicated his life to the protection and rights of animals, working closely with PETA and other organizations. For a time his work and animal rights passions intersected with the successful “Free Willy” movies, which he produced with his wife, producer Lauren Shuler Donner. The pair also produced the X-Men film franchise and countless other films. Somehow forgotten amongst contemporaries like Steven Spielberg (who produced “The Goonies” with Donner), George Lucas and other great filmmakers of the late 20th century, Donner in my mind will always stand shoulder-to-shoulder with those wonderful directors. I will put up “The Omen’’ with “Jaws” (the true godfather of the modern summer blockbuster), “Superman: The Movie” with “Raiders of the Lost Ark” (my favorite adventure film) and “The Goonies” with “E.T.” any day of the week. I mentioned that before moving to feature films Donner directed hundreds of episodes of 1960’s and 1970’s television. One of those episodes, 1963’s “Twilight Zone” episode “Nightmare at 20,000 Feet,” is to this day considered one of the best half hours in television in history. If you get some free time, put on one of the films mentioned above. If you want to do a deeper dive on Donner I recommend a little film called “Inside Moves.” A quiet, character-based drama Donner made after the exhaustion of directing “Superman: The Movie” and his strained relationship with the producers of that film led to him leaving the already partly filmed “Superman II” (1980). “Inside Moves” is a complete left turn from those comic book blockbusters and is a really good film. You can find it streaming on Amazon Prime or available on DVD/Blu-Ray. As I write this I am on an airplane heading to a friend’s wedding in Colorado, listening to John Williams’ iconic score to “Superman: The Movie.” As I look out the window of the plane I can see a blanket of cotton-like clouds. What an appropriate tribute. Here’s to Richard Donner, flying high above the clouds with his friend Christopher Reeve for eternity. Joshua B. Porter is a writer/director/producer. His most recent project, the music video “When You Know” by the band Sunny State, can now be streamed on YouTube. He can be reached at @ joshuabporter or joshuabporter@mtdemocrat.net.

he Second Saturday concerts are back on calendar starting July 10 at the Shingle Springs Community Center. Saturday’s show is a welcome re-open. Topping the bill is the charismatic Simms Band, a local group playing stylistic classic rock and dance favorites. The show starts at 7 p.m with singer/songwriter/ entertainer Stephen Yerkey. The Simms Band will take the stage at 8 p.m. after Yerkey’s set.
Headliners Ken Simms of the Simms Band started his first group at age 13 in the Bay Area. As a junior high school student in 1958, it was unusual to even have a band. He was in the vanguard of rock and roll and right in the midst of the burgeoning San Francisco music scene in the ‘60s. In those early years Simms knew and played with artists such as Boz Skaggs, Elvin Bishop, Jimmy Page and Carlos Santana. He experienced the music history of the Bay Area in person with his guitar in hand and music on his mind. In 1971 Simms led Truckin’, a popular band featuring Paula Sorce. A highlight of their collaboration was writing the soundtrack for the 1973 movie “Liquid Space.” Simms eventually left the music world for a period, dedicating his life to his wife and family. When the kids were grown and life slowed down he went back into music wholeheartedly. In 2000 Simms teamed up again with Paula Sorce, with whom he co-wrote many songs. Together they performed and produced several CDs with their 11-piece band, Just Truckin’. He recently started performing under the Simms Band title. Participating in the local music scene and reconnecting with past friends and musicians, Simms realized that El Dorado County had the raw talent to create the band of his dreams. That band now features: • Maura Pearson — lead vocals, percussion. Pearson is a longtime El Dorado County resident and a graduate

Stephen Yerkey’s performance includes great storytelling. of Ponderosa High School. She has been singing in bands since she was 14. • Ray Mattos — lead vocals, congas. Mattos is a fun entertainer. Both Mattos and Pearson are energetic and crowd engaging leaders of the vocal section. • Inna Beethoven — violin, vocals. Beethoven has been with the band since 2015. She is a native of the Ukraine. Her unique style adds a rich dimension to the bands sound and allows them to explore new territory with original compositions. • Charles Dobson — bass guitar. Dobson has been playing bass since 1973 and helped form the popular, local group Midlife Crisis in El Dorado County. • John Kahling — drums. Kahling is a premier drummer with a long history of gigs, including shows at The Whiskey, The Roxy and other well known venues in Southern California. Kahling is also a founding member of the local group Cowboy Neal. • Aaron Granick — keyboards. Granick also sings with the group and, like all good keyboardists, he’s in high demand with other bands. It’s not uncommon to see him on other stages. • Ken Simms — guitar. Simms like a warhorse of rock, leads his band with his Les Paul in hand.
Opening act Stephen Yerkey has been called The
“Elvis Costello of country.” He is a solo voice with acoustic guitar and harmonica, fusing country, jazz, folk and blues plus rich storytelling. The eccentric WestVirginia-born baritone sings tales of railroad workers, robber barons, short pants, love, despair, Algiers and lighthouse keeping. Yerkey’s album “Confidence, Man” has been described as “a lost classic waiting to be rediscovered by fans of Richard Buckner and Townes Van Zandt.” His act is pure entertainment so come early to get a good seat. Doors open at 6:30 p.m.
Show details Everyone is welcome to the Second Saturday community concerts. They are a friendly, potluck affair and people can bring their own spirits. The $10 suggested donation at the door goes directly to the performers and helps maintain the historical Shingle Springs Community Center, which hosts these concerts every second Saturday of the month with the goal of bringing the community together around its own local musical talent.

You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.
