The Calaveras County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday approved an agreement with the Federal Emergency Management Agency to fix flood maps that forced many residents to buy unnecessary flood insurance.

The maps, mostly originating from the Department of Water Resources, were adopted by the county following a 2008 presentation by FEMA. The speakers warned that homeowners could become ineligible for flood insurance if the county didn't adopt the maps.

But when the maps were adopted in 2010, the number of properties drawn into floodzones leaped from about 2,200 to about 7,200 — including ones some county authorities said "bordered on silly in terms of true flood danger."

An untold number of those affected were then forced to buy flood insurance.

ARer numerous public complaints, the county asked FEMA to fix the maps but got only partial fixes and proposals the county didn't like.

That is until last month, when FEMA wrote an agreement to take the lead on fixing the maps.

'Yay, they finally agreed," said county See MAPS/Back Page

ROBERT POROVICH SON OF YUGOSLAYIAN IMMIGRANTS Robert Porovich was born ln Angels Camp in l9I3. He was the last surviving son of eight children. He graduated from local schools. When he was a teenager, his first job was for Angels Box and Lumber Company, the first retail sales yard in Calaveras County. He worked learning to run saws,

grading, and piling lumber and also drove the lumber truck.

Later, he was an all-round mill and yardman and was in

FETE E. CULVER August 6, 1943 - March 13, 2015 PeteE.Culverpassed away on March 13,2015 atthe age of71from a short battle with cancer. Pete was bom to Charles and Elizabeth Culver on August 6, 1943 at Mary's Help Hospital in San Francisco County. As a young child, he lived with his parents on Jackling Drive in Hillsborough, CA. The family moved to Salinas, CA in 1954. His introduction to camping and fishing was at a local campground along the Big Sur River in the early 1950's. Even then he would let everyone else eat all the fish he caught. Pete graduated from North Salinas High School in 1962, where he was Vice President of his senior class.

Before automatic sprinkler systems were widely available, he used to lay sprinkler pipe on the fairways of Salinas Golf Country Club at 5 o'clock in the moming. After watering the club grass, he'd pick up the pipe and then play at least 36 holes. Growing up near the Monterey Peninsula, young Culver was afforded the opportunity to hone his golf skills at some of the most prestigious courses in the world. His talent earned him a full-ride scholarship to Califomia State University Fresno where he was a four-year letterman.

Pete met Carolyn Buck while at Fresno State and they were married on Sept. 4, 1965. They had two children: Suzanne and Jason. They moved to Atwater in 1972 when Pete accepted the Golf Professional position at Rancho Del Rey Golf Club. During his time there he enjoyed instructing many golfers; many of these golfers are still in the Merced community today. Pete had the opportunity to participate in many tournaments throughout the United States — at one point he held as many as five course records. He also helped establish the Golf for Youth program which still continues today — giving many youth the opportunity to learn this great game.

After leaving the golf profession in the late 1980's, Pete went into radio sales. Over the last 15 years he owned and managed a collectables/antique business. He and his sweetheart, Kathy Smith, owned and operated Collectiques in downtown Merced until her passing in April of 2013.

Pete continued to enjoy his days at Collectiques until a few weeks before his passing. Many will remember him in his reclined position with his ankles up on the display table: short white socks and Birkenstocks. He never met a stranger; he welcomed conversation and the opportunity to talk about sports and leisure.

Pete was a devoted member of the Elks Lodge in Merced and a Past Five-Year Trustee. During this time he assisted the lodge in stabilizing their financial status. After he finished serving on the board, he continued doing what he could to help encourage new members and raise money for veterans and challenged children.

He is survived by his son Jason Culver (and wife Melissa Culver), his daughter Suzanne Shiflet (and husband Jeff Shiflet), his brother Stephen Culver (and his wife Sherry Culver), and his four grandchildren (Rachel, Kohen, Reese and Dax Culver).

Services will be held at the Elks Lodge in Merced (1910 "M" Street, Merced, CA 95340) on Sunday, March 29th at2pttL

charge of the yard. ln summer months, he would work at Manuel's Saw Mill in Arnold as an edger man. This was the first saw mill in Calaveras County. ln l941, he had the honor of being the first draft to leave Angels Camp for the Army. He

served three and a half years in Combat Engineers in the Southwest Pacific Theater of war. Bob was the first of four brothers to serve his country. Bob was working on a bridge

in New Guinea when General McArthur arrived and he had to salute him.

Upon his return home in l945, he went back to work at Angels Box and Lumber Co. for

five years until the company went out of business. ln l950, he started working for P. G.6 E. in general construction as a carpenter and foreman and worked twelve different counties. After thirteen years there, he called it quits

to become self-employed, remodeling and building in the real estate business.

Throughout the years, Bob was affiliated with his church, St. Vasilije, in Angels Camp. He took pride maintaining and improving it, including constructing a stone monument with an old ore carton top of it, in memory of the early miners.

Bob also served in the Altaville Cemetery District as President of the Board of Trustees

for over two decades. The Board of Supervisors honored him with a plaque for his achievement. Bob was also skilled as a stone mason. Some of this most outstanding work

was done at the Altaville Cemeteries along Highway 4.

Bob was a great sports fan. Hewent to the 1955 World Series ln New York. He sawall

seven games. He also went to the Dodger and White Sox games in Los Angeles in l959, and also attended the 1962 Giants World Series, plus Oakland tat's, a total of l9 games.

Bob never married or had children but he cared for his nieces and nephews as if they were his own. He was genuine, fun-loving and devoted to all those he loved. Bob will be

remembered lovingly and will be eternally missed.

Bob was survived by sister-in-law Doris Porovich and nieces and nephews; Ken Porovich

(Laura), Marlene Deeds (Don), Jack Porovich, John Ramorini, Ruby Turner, Gary Porovich (Siri), Nadine Kelly, Eileen Davis (Doug), Donna McGeorge (Gary), Danny Porovich (Barbara), Dave Porovich (Laura), and numerous great nephews and nieces.

Memorial Service will be held Thursday, March 26 at I I:00 am at St. Yasilije Serbian Church in hngels Camp, Ch. Inurnment will be at the hltaville Serbian Cemetery.

Sonora Police Chief Mark Stinson is sworn to uphold the law.

So it's hard to understand why he is so dismissive of the nation's most important one, the First Amendment, and state laws like the California Public Records Act that guarantee the public's right to know what its government agencies and officials are up to.

We've complained about Stinson's caginess before on this page. For years, he had a tendency to withhold information he was obligated to provide the media under the CPRA — chiefly data contained in police incident reports, like the names, ages and hometowns of people involved in a crime or accident, and the general circumstances surrounding such incidents, like the time, date and place.

He changed his ways for the better last year after we raised our concerns with the public. But, like some Wile E. Coyote in blue, Stinson has returned with a new mechanism intended to thwart the dissemination of this information to the public.

Early this week, the chief told Union Democrat reporters they must file CPRA written requests each time the paper wants even basic incident report information.

The Sonora Police Department is now the only law enforcement agency in at least a five-county area (ifnot the entire state)

requiring a formal CPRA request to obtain such routine information.

Now you, the newspaper reader, web page browser or radio listener, may have to wait for up to 10 days to learn what's happening in the city from a law enforcement perspective (I saw a collision, what happened?) while Stinson processes these individual requests.

(Why the netand radio? Because, even though he is attempting to punish this newspaper forasserting its legal rights, the chief isn't allowed to play favorites under thelegal doctrines of"equal access"and "equal convenience.")

Why doesn't the chief just make it easier on the public, the local media and himself by following the law, in word and in spirit?

We've had no luck getting an answer, but maybe the public or our elected leaders should ask?

F'" II GUEST COLUMN

Laughter good medicine for toxic politics "There are three things which are real," saidJohn F.Kennedy,"God, human folly and laughter. The first two are beyond our comprehension, so we must do what we can with the third." As a national candidate, the thensenator did just that. Sensitive to the charge that his multi-millionaire father was trying to buy the Democratic presidential nomination for him, Jack Kennedy quipped at Washington's annual Gridiron dinner:"I just received a telegram from my father. He says, 'Don't buy one more vote than you need. I'll be damned if I'll pay for a landslide.' " Earlier this month, the Gridiron Club, a group of 65 Washington journalists (of whom I am one), held its 130th winter dinner, where, in satirical skits and songs, the powerful and the pompous are gently skewered.

Each year, the dinner has just three speakers: one Democrat, one Republican and the

president of the United States (or his designated pinch-hitter).

Self-deprecating humor with which a public figure can publicly make fun of himself is always well-received. Nobody was more effectively self-deprecating than President Ronald Reagan. Aware of the press speculation that perhaps he, then in his eighth decade and with an official work schedule which, by Washington standards, was thin, might not be "up" to the physical demands of the presidency, Reagan countered with a memorable one-liner: "It's true hard work

McAuliffe continued "John Boehner wanted to attend tonight, but he can't get anywhere without 100 votes &om Nancy Pelosi."

Five hurt in Vallecito crash Union Democrat staff

Fivepeoplewere injured Monday evening in a collision near Vallecito, according to a California Highway Patrol report.

The incident happened about 6:30 p.m. on Parrotts Ferry Road near Moaning Cave Road.

Brian Silva, 29, of Altaville, was driving a 2000 HondaCivicabout 50 mph northbound +ta '

on Parrotts Ferry Road.

According to the report, Silva looked away from the road to adjust his car heater, which caused his car to swerve into the southbound lane and into the path of a 2007 Honda Odyssey van driven by Augustina Meza, 47.

Meza turned her van to the right in an attempt to avoid a collision. The front of Silva's car collided with the left side of Meza's van, pushing the van off the shoulder of the road, where it came to rest. Silva's car ended up in the southbound lane.

Meza and her two teenage passengers were transported by ambulance to Mark Twain Medical Center, where they were treated for minor injuries.

Silva and his passenger, Kara Turben, 24, of Altaville, were taken to Sonora Regional Medical Center, where they, too, were treated for minor injuries.

Drugs or alcohol were not a factor in the collision, according to the report.

Motherlode Maker Labs invites community members to celebrate Arduino Day 2015 by learning about and playing with the organization's Arduinos, which are small circuit-board-type devicesfor creating electronics.

PROBATION Conti nued from Page Al and must conduct searches and home visits.

In such cases, probation officers must get a SherifFs deputy to aid with routine probation duties, which stretches both departments and sometimes means fewer searches and visits get done, Leach said.

So he already spent some departmental funds on guns, batons and training in anticipation of authorizing at least a few officers to be armed on duty.

The board Tuesday approved the Probation Department's "Force and Firearms Policy."

Leach also informed the board he'd be spending $3,000 more on equipment and training this year and $5,000 annually &om here, all in departmental funds.

The board gave unanimous approval.

The policy says the Chief Probation Officer will hand-pick who is authorized for firearm use, which will be for specific assignments and will require a laundry list of prerequisite trainmg.

The electronics prototyping platf orm was created 10 years ago to aid students at the Interaction Design Institute in northern Italy.

A design project with electronics used to cost at least $100. But the Arduino project made basic electronics far more accessible and has boomed in popularity ever since, Call said.

The original inventors decided to keep the platform open to users,leading to some versions costing less than $10.

All someone needs to invent something new with an Arduino is obtain one of the inexpensive devices and access a computer with the freesofbvare to program it, Call said.

They can be combined with other relatively cheap components like LED lights, sound sensors, motors and speakers or more complex components.

What if there was another, less cumbersome solution to computerfailures?

The cloud offers businesses the kind of risk-aversion that will allow the continuity of business,regardless of the failingsofhardware.

One point that makes some of the cloud solutions most attractiveis that they are platform independent. Why is this important? If your business is mobile/portable, it becomes apparent that you don't have to take your laptop with you to do business on the road.

You can do most of your business with limited connectivity, and usually through a cell phone's data plan.

Merriam-Webster defines cloud computing as "the practiceof storing regularly used computer data on multiple servers that can be accessed through the Internet."

Instead of dealing with a bulky computer, applications like Quickbooks Online on your mobile phone can access the same data and processing you would have with a full computer at your finger tips.

What about the security of my data in the cloud? My response is usually, "What about the security of your single point of failure?"

Firms offer bonuses for rollovers Retirement

By ELLIOT RAPHAELSON Kplinger Personal Finance

If you are looking to roll over your 401(k) into an IRA or simply move your r etirement accounts

&om one financial institution to another, there's good news. Several firms will offer you a bonus for your business, as long as you make contributions for the current year (and in some cases several subsequent years as well).

Although some of these offers sound enticing, consider a longterm approach before deciding to transfer your funds.

For example, if you have selected a financial institution because of its low overall cost, it doesn't make sense to transfer funds if you will incur much higher annual expenses. Before you transfer any funds, compare the annual costs you are now incurring to the total annual costs at a new company.

A third factor is advice. If you are receiving advice you value regarding investment selection, make sure that you will be able to receivecomparable advice from a

For example, say you have a portfolio of index mutual funds, with acurrent value of $200,000.

You pay an average annual fee of 0.15 (such information is available from any fund's website).

That comes to$300 per year. You are considering transferring your funds to a financial institution that will charge an annual cost would be 0.5 percent — or $1,000 per year. In this situation, even ifyou received a $500 bonus for switching, you would be in a worse position at the end of only one year.

Another factor to consider is the range of investment alternatives.

If you initially selected a financial institution because of its diversified selection of investments, you don't want to switch to a financial institution without a comparable selection.

new financial institution.

What follows are some of the bonuses offered this year.

• Fidelity is offering an IRA contribution match to new or ex-

isting customers who transfer a Roth, traditional or rollover IRA to the company. If you transfer funds at certain thresholds, and then make additional contributions for the next three years, Fidelity will match those contributions at graduated percentages. With a $10,000 transfer, Fidelity will match 1 percent of your further contributions.

With a $100,000 transfer, the match is 1.5 percent. At $250,000, the match is 5 percent, and at $500,000 and above it's 10 percent.

For 2015, the allowable IRA contribution is $5,500 ($6,500 if

WEATHER WATCHERS NEEDED The Union Democrat has a dedicated team of volunteer weather watchers who keep track of high-low temperatures and precipitation.

They call the newspaper with fresh numbers early every morning for that day's weather page, on the back of the sports section. The only pay is an annual gathering - sometimes a picnic hosted by the newspaper, sometimes dinner at an area restaurant - where they are honored and thanked. Necessary equipment, which the volunteers must provide themselves, are a thermometer that records the high and low temperatures of the day and a rain gauge. They must also submit snow depths and melt snow, when they get it, to include its water content with their precipitation. Volunteers are needed right now in, Tuolumne, Pinecrest and San Andreas.

Anyone interested in becoming a volunteer may callPam Orebaugh 588-4546 or e-mail orebau houniondemocrat.com

How much should tooth fairy leave?

By JANET BODNAR Kiplinger Personal Finance

The tooth fairy is still a popular figure among American families. The Original Tooth Fairy Poll, sponsored

by Delta Dental, reports that she visited 81 percent of U.S. homes with children who lost a tooth in 2014. The amount she leaves seems largely to

depend on how much spare cash Mom and Dad have.

A similar survey by Visa last spring also concluded that the fairy may be giving just what she has in her pocket; more than half of kids could expect $1 or $5.

Aside from satisfying parents' curiosity (and providing fodder for columns like this one), the surveys serve their own purposes. The Original Tooth Fairy Poll is intended to help promote good dental hygiene. For Visa, the tooth fairy's visit "is an opportunityfor parents to talk to their children about the importance of saving and budgeting," says Jason Alder-

"A couple of months later, he lost man, Visa's vice-president of global financial education. another tooth in the yard while playClearly, the point isn't to enrich ing in the snow.

Suspender-snappers need to keep hands off DEAR ANME: I am a male, over 60,gray,balding and noticeably overweight. Because of back problems, I choosetowear suspenders instead ofa belt. So, why is it that women of all ages think it's OK to snap my suspenders, or at least expressa desireto do so? Most recently, it was a younger woman on the stafF of a hospital ER while I was waitingformy wifetobetreated.

I'm fairly certain that if I were to snap their bra straps, they would slap my face and call the police, and rightly so. Why, then, do these ladies believe they have a right to put their hands on me? —LOST FOR AN ANSWER DEAR LOST: We have no clue why anyone,male or female, would think it is OK to treat your suspenders as though they were a child's toy to play with. You likely appear to others asjocular and friendly, which makes them treat

And there may be something about suspenders that encourages people to touch them. But this doesn't excuse their behavior.

If someone approaches you a little too closely, feel free to back away or ask them to keep their hands to themselves. Another option, of course, is to cover the suspenders with a jacket or sweater.

And, readers, please keep your hands off the merchandise.

Based on these small studies, it appears that Boswellia extract may have benefit in improving pain and function in people with osteoarthritis of the knee. I found products that are labeled as having what the study medicine did (most commonly 100 mg once daily, containing at least 20 percent AKBA, the active ingredient).

However, let me emphasize that supplements are not subject to oversight by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. In February 2015, the New York state attorney general's office accused four major retailers of selling fraudulent and potentially dangerous herbal

Since North might have raised spades with only three-card support, holding, for example, 3-4-5-1 distribution, South rebid three clubs to test the waters. North, with four spades, a useful club king and a ruffing value in that suit, was happy to jump to game despite his weak trumps.

Declarer can afford only one trump loser. This requires finding East with the ace, the suit splitting 3-2, and leading twice toward the hand with the two honors.

South crossesto dummy with, say, a diamond and leads a spade. Presumably, East will play low. Declarer takes the trick with his king (or queen), returns to dummy with a club, and leads another trump. With this layout, the defenders cannot defeat the contract.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Golden Bear got a gold medal.

Congress on Tuesday awarded its highest civilian honor to golfing great Jack Nicklaus, who accepted the medal with a few tears, humility and humor.

In a ceremony in the C apitol R otunda, t h e House and Senate leadership bestowed the award on Nicklaus, winner of 18 major championships, including six Masters titles, five PGA championships and four U.S. Opens.

"Few transcend their sport to achieve that kind of moment, or this kind of honor," said House Speaker John Boehner, an avid golfer who grew emotional at times during the ceremony.

The 75-year-old Nicklaus, dubbed the Golden Bear, recalled the hard work o f h i s p a r ents, praised his family and paid tribute to his wife, Barbara.

He recalled that when his son Jack was six, he was asked what his father did for a living. The younger Nicklaus said, "Nothing, he just plays golf."

An emotional Nicklaus told his family that his whole life he wanted to make them proudofhim, and "hopefully I have."

SAN FRA N CISCO (AP) — Nick Peters, a former Spink Award winner who covered the San Francisco Giants for 47 years and loved to mento r young writers, has died. He was 75.

Both the Giants and Peters'former employer, the Sacramento Bee, ann ounced that h e d i ed Monday at hts Northern California home after a long illness.

From Hall of Famers Willie Mays to Willie McCovey, Juan M a richal and Orlando Cepeda, to more modern stars such as Barry Bonds and Tim Lincecum, Peters was a staple inthe press box at Seals Stadium, Candlestick Park and AT&T Park.

Peters - nicknamed "The Greek" — received the Hall of Fame's J.G. Taylor Spink Award in 2008 for meritorious contributions to baseball writing. He became a full-time, traveling baseball writer in 1979 for the Oakland Tribune.

"I knew I was doing my job because Ididn't get along with Giants management," Peters said in a 2008 interview with The Associated Press. "I ticked offsome people a long the way. I w a s about doing the job, not about making friends."

Spartans show grit by advancing in tourney EAST LANSING, Mich.

(AP) — When Tom Izzo walked into the media room at the Breslin Center, the place was already full of reporters who had been listening to football coach Mark Dantonio's briefing about the startofspring practice.

"We'reback to a basketball school for the weekend," Izzo joked.

It was,of course, a ridicu-

lous statement — Izzo' s program is always the focus of the East Lansing campus at this time of year.

But this season, Michigan State has been able to take nothing for granted.

Itseemed asifeverym issed

&ee throw and late-game snafu pushed the Spartans one step closer to a disappointing finish in 2015, and after all of those trials and travails, it is indeeda bitofa surprise that they're now preparing for a Sweet 16 matchup with Oklahoma later this week.

"We've matured," junior Denzel Valentine said."All the tough games we had throughout the year prepared us for this."

Michigan State's list of tight finishes is a long one.

Seven of its games went to overtime, including losses to

Notre Dame, Maryland, Minnesota, Wisconsin and even Texas Southern.

If the Spartans had won a couplemore of those close games, they might h ave earned a much higher seed in the NCAA Tournament, but even as their regional's No. 7 team, they were able to upset second-seeded Virginia on Sunday.

And in doing so, they looked strikingly similar to some of Izzo's previous Michigan State teams, stymieing the Cavaliers with a superb defensive effort in a slow-paced slog of a game.

There have been times this season when the Spartans have looked almost like a finesse team. They're shooting 39 percent &om 3-point range. They turn the ball over only 11.4times per game, a rate that will be the lowest of Izzo's 20-year tenure if it holds up. Michigan State also averages 16.9 assists, the team'sbestpace since the 2007-08 season.
