Twain Harte Community Services District is hoping a municipal well completed last year will soften the blow from looming water restrictions for residents and businesses in the area, especially with the added uncertainty over the filling of Twain Harte Lake this summer.

The THCSD Board of Directorshas scheduled apublic hearing for 9 a.m. April 24 in the district'sconference room, at 22933 Twain Harte Drive, to consider implementing mandatory water restrictions on customers for the second

Cal Fire officials around the state have announced they are preparing for an early and perilous fire season, this coming off an unusually dry winter.

Propertyowners are strongly urged to clear an area of defensible space around theirhomes before it'stoo late.

10 SEOMR

UNCoNPETtTIVa,

There's no time like the present.

Property owners can still burn yard waste without a Cal Fire permit on permissive burn days (call your county's air pollution control district for daily restrictions — Tuolumne County 533-5598; Calaveras County 754-6600).

Cal Fire officials will likely end open burning in a few weeks, meaning people will be required to get a special permit to burn their slash.

Too, last week's rain storm may have made surrounding vegetation slightly less flammable. But that window of lower fire danger is certain to pass as late temperatures ramp up.

The importance of following safety guidelines when burning can't be overstated. In just the past few weeks, a handful of fires were blamed on escaped debris burns — including a fire on Big Hill that destroyed a home.

To burn safely, people must: Never leave burn piles unattended, clear flammable materials from the ground around where a burn pile is planned, keep a shovel and hose ready to quickly extinguish any fire that may escape, and avoid burning on breezy or windy days, even if no air quality restrictions are in effect.

Special note: People who lose control of burn piles can face criminal or civil penalties for damaged property and fire suppression costs.

Belatedly, congratulations are due Bret Harte High School, designated as being among the "Best School Districts for Your Buck in California" in a recent study by personal-finance website NerdWallet.

The survey looked at schools in"affordable" communities, like Tuolumne and Calaveras counties. Taken into account were its average SAT scores (Bret Harte's was 1,554), graduationrates (94.70 percent),and student-to-teacher ratios (1 to 16.39).

Most people who live in this region already knew Bret Harte was a gem. This affirmation was a nice boost both for

school staffers and students.

Also a belated thumbs up ... this one for the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, National Park Service, U.S. Forest Service, and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for their recent efforts to reestablish Sierra Nevada bighorn sheep populations in Yosemite National Park.

Late last month, nine ewes and three rams were moved from the Inyo National Forest and Sequoia National Park to Yosemite's Cathedral Range, where they are expected to thrive.

Bighorn sheep are one of the High Sierra's rarer sights.

Over-hunted and displaced by development in the decades until they were protected in 2000, the population numbers only about 600.

They are spectacular to behold and reestablishing them in a protected area like Yosemite was an idea overdue.

GUEST COLUMN

Learning from the Board of Supervisors The Board of Supervisors within Tuolumne County — including Sheri Brennan (First D i strict), Randall Hanvelt (Second District), Evan Royce (Third District), John L. Gray (Fourth District and Chairman of 2015) — as well as the Chief Deputy Clerk, Alicia L. Jamar, work vigorously to ensure that the community is healthy, vibrant, safe, and on the path towards success.

I have noticed that all of the Supervisors as well as the Chief Deputy Clerk of the Board, all share the same goal of creating a safe, healthy, and productive community.

I am pleased with the experience I had while spending time in the administration building and have witnessed their ability to enhance the quality of lifeand promote economic prosperity.

While attending several b oard meetings, I have observed that each Supervisor works well with each other and allows the public to speak and ask questions during the open session meetings. I found it very interesting how open and understanding the supervisors are toward the community's opinions and suggestions. Each of the supervisors take people's needs and wants into consideration by voting on approving new policies or making improvements within the community.

While in the office with Supervisor Gray I noticed that he was constantly busy, whether it was responding to people's emails, phone calls, or reviewing information about an upcoming meeting; he is always on the go.

While job shadowing, it is clear that Supervisor Gray is devoted to makhas on the community and the great ing the community a better place by amount of effort he puts into his job. overseeing the management of county Those who are unaware of their government and special districts.

MILAN (AP) — The feared drowning of 400 migrants in a shipwreck this week in the Mediterranean Sea — one of thedeadliest such tragedies in the lastdecade — raisedalarms Wednesday amid an unprecedentedwave of migration toward Europe from Africa and the Middle East.

The U.N. refugee agency expressed shock at the scale of the deaths in Monday's capsizing and renewed calls on European governments to redouble search and rescue efforts, while the

Refugees Antonio Guterres said.

The Italian Coast Guard rescued some 140people ofthe coast of Libya on Monday and recovered nine bodies, but could see immediately from the size ofthe capsized smuggler's boat that there had likely been hundreds more on board.

The rescuewas made during a fi veday surge that saw Italian ships save nearly10,000 people at sea since Friday — an unprecedented rate in such a short period,according to Cmdr.

Accounts by survivors, mostly subSaharan Africans, indicate the ship capsized when men on the upper deck rushed to wave down a ship they believedto be a rescue vessel,said IOM spokesman Joel Millman in Geneva.

The rescued migrants a r rived Wednesday at the southern Italian port of Corigliano, where aid workers dressed in white protective jumpsuits, gloves and masks worked to process them.

A precise accounting of the num-

Congress Ruling on marijuana disappoints reshapes Medicare dOCS' feeS WASHINGTON ( A P) Conservatives hated

that it's expected to swell federaldefi cits over the coming decade.Liberals complained that it shortchanged health programs for children and women.

But after years of complaints and failed eflorts, huge majorities of lawmakers &om both parties banded together and Congressapproved legislation permanently r e c asting how Medicare reimburses physicians.

Fueling the bill's overwhelming support was backing &om potent interest groups including the American Medical Association and AARP, the lobby for senior citizens.

Though AARP tried unsuccessfully to change the bill to ease costs for some Medicare recipients, CEO Jo Ann Jenkins hailed its passage as "momentous"

Wednesday and said the measure would help Medicarebenefi ciaries "restassured that they'll be able to keep seeing their physicians each year."

The Senate gave fi nal congressional approval late Tuesday to the $214 billion bipartisan measure, which rewrites how Medicarepays doctors fortreating over 50 million elderly people. It also provides extra money for health care programs for children and low-income people, which Democrats coveted, and imposed higher costs on some higher-income Medicare beneficiaries, which Republicans touted as a victory.

Most immediately, the bill prevented a 21 percent cut in those physicians' Medicare fees that would have hit home Wednesday when a federal agency planned to start making payments reflecting that reduction. That would have ensured a floodof complaints fiom doctors and senior citizens that lawmakers dearly wanted to avoid.

"This bipartisan bill will protect health coverage for millions of Americans, and I will be proud to sign it into law," President Barack Obama said after the Senate vote.

SACRAMENTO (AP) — A federal judge in California declined Wednesday to remove marijuana from the listofm ostdangerous drugs, disappointing activists who saw the case as a chance to getcloserto theirgoalofnationwide legalization.

VIEWS Continued from Page Al Creation Studio, the business he startedat age 19 in hisbedroom at his parents' Mi-Wuk Village home.

He said he has never had to advertise and makes his living off referrals. Tascoe has designed swimwear for Nike and jerseys for Yamaha Motor Company. However, 50 percent of his clients are in Tuolumne County.

In 2013, Tascoe took second place on "HGTV Design Star," a televised reality competition aimed at launching undiscovered designers into success. He said being a finalist gave him credibility, which has propelled his design career. He also, on behalf of the DIY Network, presents his hometown success story to students all over the nation.

Tascoe in 2013 spoke to students at Angelo State University in Texas.

He told the students all of his goals were accomplished while living in the small-town area of Sonora.

Tascoesaid he often hears people say, "If only I can get out of here, I can bebetter, " but Tascoe told the students their passion lies within and can be pursued right where they Tascoe said he has been drawing since he could hold a pencil. He was born Dec. 31, 1979, in Redwood City and moved with his parents in 1980 to Mi-Wuk Village.

"While other kids were out riding their bikes, I was drawing," he said.

He was a student at Twain Harte

Elementary School where he met his first and only art teacher, Laurie Sylwester.

JeribaiTascoe, of Sonora (above left), stands in a room he designed for his home and had featured on HGTV. Tascoe holds a motocross jersey he designed for Yamaha Motor Company (above right) while working at MKM Sportswear.

Sylwester, now an art professor at Columbia College, said Tascoe was a joy to have as a student and inspired her as a teacher with his creativityand drive.

Tascoe in elementary school was "obsessed" with Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls basketball team, he said. He would routinely draw the Chicago Bulls logo and pictures of basketballs.

Sylwester said she was not a sports fan, but subscribed to a sports magazine to help her relate and teach the aspiring artist she saw in Tascoe.

One day in his fifth-grade art class,Sylwester asked Tascoe to draw something other than his basketball pictures. He penciled his first-ever three-dimensional

sketch of the classroom, and the young artist turned designer. Tascoe said he was inspired by how he couldcreateeffectsofshadows and shades.

Tascoe graduated in 1998 from Mother Lode Christian School in Tuolumne. His first job was at age 15 at the Pac 'N' Copy print shop in The Junction shopping center. It was there he was ushered into the digital age of design.

"It was like building a sandcastle within minutes and knocking it down and rebuildinganother,and I could create so many things, so quickly!" he said of the new digital design programs.

T ascoe, while w o r king f o r Pac 'N' Copy, designed business logos, cards and invitations.

DROUGHT Continued from Page Al "Anything we can do to take pressure off businesses here would be a good thing," THCSD Director Gary Sipperley said Wednesday."We don't have another river we can dam to get a new supply of water, and we can't expand Lyons (Reservoiri ourselves, but we're doing everything we can."

The district's water deliveries from Tuolumne Utilities District were cut in half last summer due to 50-percent cutbacks imposed on TUD's wholesale customers. THCSD buys water from TUD and delivers it to customers in the Twain Harte area.

Meanwhile, TUD's domestic customers elsewhere in the county were required to reduce their usage by only25 percent from February through June 2014.

Now, TUD's water supply outlook is worse than last year, with the 18,000acre-footPinecrestReservoir not expected to fill for the first time since 1924. In addition, Gov. Jerry Brown has enacted unprecedented statewide water restrictions that require all California water districts to reduceusage by atleast 25 percent or facefinesofup to $10,000perday.

THCSD board members have been waitingto get a better idea of what TUD plans to propose for water restrictions before imposing their own, Sipperley said. TUD officials have publicly stated a probable conservationtarget of30 percent,which is what THCSD officials are shooting for as well.

Sipperley said it would be "unnecessarily confusing" on THCSD customers to ask for a different conservation target than TUD's, like last year.

Tom Mannix, of Sonora (above), putts on the putting green at the Twain Harte Golf Course last week. Twain Harte Community Services District officials and local business owners expressed concern over Twain Harte Lake's (below) uncertain future.

He createdthe logos for Dave Wong's Off-Road outlet, shirt logos for Dodge Ridge, MMI machines and the Ironstone Amphitheater.

In 2002 he took a job as art director with Sonora-based M&M Sportswear. While there, Tascoe digitally designed several ATV and motocross jerseys for Yamaha Motor Company.

Tascoe said he loved doing design, but at age 23 thought he could not realistically support himselfby doing art, and he had no idea how to run a business, so he went to work for his father's paralegal firm in Twain Harte.

One day at work, Tascoe's dad said, "Son, if art is really what you love to do, then pray about it, and go after it with all you got."

drought that keeps ongoing.... We need a break."

Another drought-related issue threatening the area's economy this summer is the possibility of not having enough water to fill Twain Harte Lake in time for the recreation season.

The lake was emptied when the dam's granite footing — known as the 'The Rock" — cracked last August. Twain Harte Lake Association leaders have requested water from TUD to fill the lake, but the district still isn't sure whether it can meet the request due to the projected limited supply in Pinecrest.

The district is also waiting to hear from the State Water Resources Control Board for clarification on a 1977rulingthatprevented a private lake in Orange County from being filled that drought year, and whether the same would apply to the Twain Harte Lake situation.

Twain Harte business owners are

Within three months of doing legal work, he was back to the design business ascreative director for Reverb Communications in Twain Harte.

Tascoe said his father's encouragement was the inspiration he needed, and within weeks projects started lining up for him.

Tascoe said as his business grew, there was something else missing.

"Accomplishments don't really matter if you don't have someone to share it with," he said.

In 2005, at a Los Angeles business conference, he met Michelle Avena,and in her found the companion he wanted.

The two fell in love and were m arried on Aug. 17,2008,atSierra Glen Apple Ranch.

Tascoesaid his greatest accomplishment has been the "granddesign" of his family. The couple have two children, Angelo, 5, and Chiistian, 3.

Tascoe is currently re-designing the website for Merced Community College. He designed the website for Columbia College in 2013 and the "referrals kept coming," he said.Last year he also designed websites for Yuba Community College, Woodland Community College and Clear Lake Community College.

"Team Tascoe," as he refers to himself and his wife, on Tuesday wrote down goals for the future. They include launching a website where Tascoe teaches online drumming lessons, continue expanding his services to include interior design clients, and "adding another family m ember" by having a baby,hesaid.

The lake closure put the golf course in a "very bad situation" last

year, Burmester said, explaining he saw a drastic drop in business patronsas soon asthelakeclosed.

"It seemed like visitors just closed up the cabins and went home early," he said.

Dianne Dunnigan, manager of 'The Rock of Twain Harte" restaurant on Fuller Road, was also concerned when she heard the lake may not open for the summer.

"Everyone left when the dam broke last summer," she added. "We lost business this year because it didn't snow. Twain Harte Lake really needs to open."

This is the first full summer without the lake since the cracked dam, so Dunnigan is waiting to see how the lake's closure will affect her restaurant before she makes any"drastic" changes, she said.

You, too, can be a cancer warrior The Greek myth about powerful Amazonian women evolved over many years, and by the fifth century B.C., the historianHerodotus reported that the alluring, but frightening, females lived in a fortified city on the Black Sea and raised their girl children to be warriors equal to any challenge.

M ore than2,400 years later, an archeological dig in the steppes of the southern Urals found evidence of unusually tall women (for the era) buried with swords and sporting battle wounds. Guess they weren't so mythical after all!

Well, it's time for another band of female warriors to take up the battle — this time against cancer. A new study

Experts urge discussion, filing of legal forms

By LACEY PETERSON

The Union Democrat

It's better to talk with loved ones sooner than later about end-of-life care and decisions, experts say.

"People are not good about talking about it,g said Sue Endter, a licensed

clinical social worker at Sonora Regional Medical Center. RWe end up having these discussions when people are very ill.g

Most people haven't thought about what kind of medical care, if any, they want at the end of their life, or if only palliative measures are desired.

Even fewer people have written it down or shared their wishes with loved ones, a 2013 Pew Research Center study found.

People shouldn't wait for a terminal diagnosis or a serious health complication, like stroke or heart attack, to start the dialogue with family and physicians.

N You don't know when that is going to happen to you. We really recommend to everyone to have this type ofdiscussion,"regardless ofage or health status, said Dr. Roozbeh M ohajer, medicaldirectorofSonora Regional Medical Center's Sierra Cancer Center.

Having discussions early and making the proper arrangements through advancedhealth caredirectivesand other forms, people can make sure their dignity is intact and, when the time comes that they cannot speak for themselves, a prepared family member can be their voice, Mohajer explained.

Older people especially should talk to a person who can be a health advocate for them, Mohajer said.

"Anyone can have an unexpected health event ... stroke, heart attack.

Ifyou're 25 and you getin a car accident and end up in a coma, (what if) no one knows what they want?"

Endter said.

The Pew study found that,when askedaboutend-of-life decisionsfor other people, two-thirds of Americans say there are some situations in

A free legal advocacy program serves residents in Calaveras,Tuolumne, Amador and Mariposa counties, regardless of age.

Volunteer attorneys review legal problems and intervene on behalf of clients, including referrals to a local attorney if further action is necessary. Volunteer advocates are trained and available to assist clients in completing intake forms.

Volunteer attorneys can handle legal issues like simple wills and codicils, landlordtenant issues, problems with contractors, fraud (like identity theft and working with credit bureaus), debt recovery, powers of attorney, utilities disputes, referrals to legal specialists and more.

The following cases are not accepted, but referrals can be made for them: living trusts,

conservatorships, complicated tax issues, bankruptcy and court cases.

The program also offers free notary services.

The program serves clients on Wednesdays only. Appointments are encouraged but not required. Walk-ins and people with urgent matters are welcome.

The phone number is 588-1597.People can leave a messageand someone will call them back.

The program is housed at the Mother Lode Office of Catholic Charities at 88 Bradford St., Sonora, and is open from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Wednesdays. It is also offered at theTuolumne County Senior Center on Greenley Road in Sonora from 10 a.m. to noon on Wednesdays.

out of the U.K. indicates that the more than 41 million women in North America who are obese (a BMI of 30 or higher) have a 40 percent greater risk of developing bowel, post-menopausalbreast,gallbladder, womb, kidney, pancreatic and esophageal cancer than healthy-weight women.

If that's you, you CAN cut your cancer risk by fighting to establish a healthy weight.

Your battle plan: not smoking, drinking no more than one glass of wine a day, eating five to nine servings of produce daily and dodging added sugars and syrups, red meat and processed foods. Also, for your pleasure and your health, sleep seven to eight hours a night, meditate, make love as oftenas possible and get active. All exercise makes your immune system a better can-

cer fighter.

We believeevery one of YOU has an inner Amazonian who will fight for better health. Unleash your Amazon warriorl

Mark Twain tooffer healthcaredecisioninformation MarkTwain Medical Center will participate in National Healthcare Decisions Day today and will offer information and tools for the public to talk about their wishes with family, friends and healthcare providers, andexecute written advance directives (health care power of attorney and living will).

Free information about advance care planning and advance directive forms will be available in the main lobby at MarkTwain Medical Center todaythrough Sunday. nAs a result of National Healthcare DecisionsDay,many more peoplein ourcom-

and their family, Endter said.

Once someone receives a terminal

diagnosis, there are a plethora of emotional, practical and legal concerns to take care of, Endter said.

N It can be very, very overwhelming,g she said.

The patient and family should talk to the doctor about what to expect

physicall y and thedisease process, and hopefully a timeframe, Endter sald.

However, every person is difierent, and the length of time left varies.

Prognostication is a science, but is not exact, Mohajer said.

"They're making their best estimation based on research," Endter said.

munity can be expected to have thoughtful conversations about their healthcare decisions and complete reliable advance directives to make their wishes known," sai CeeceeMcPherson, hospital clinical social worker. "Fewer families and healthcare providers will have to struggle with making difficult healthcare decisions in the absence of guidance from the patient, and healthcare providers and facilities will be better equipped to address advance healthcare planning issues before a crisis and be better able to honor patient wishes when the time comes to do so.n

The advanced healthcare directive has three parts. The first is where you name someone (and alternates) to make health decisions for you in the event you cannot make them for yourself. The decisions include consent or refusal for care, ability to select or discharge healthcare providers,ability to approve ordecline testing, procedures

and medication, approval or denial of artificial nutrition and hydration and cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and ability to approve the donation ofbody organs, authorize an autopsy and direct dispensation of remains.

The second part of the form allows the person to make specific instructions about any aspect of their health care. The third part of the form letspeople decide ifthey want to donate their organs or tissues. The final part of the form lets a person designate a doctor to have primary responsibility over their health care.

Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton have more in common than yesterday's news.

They're spray-tan fans, and like other pale-skinned North Americans, they're opting for dodging the sun's rays while still getting a glow from head to toe. But whether you pay $300 for an airbrushed blush at a Beverly Hills salon or lessthan $10 for a bottle of do-it-yourself spray tan from the corner drugstore, many experts think accidentally inhaling the mist (easy to do) is very bad for you. There are animal studies that indicate the turn-you-brown ingredient in the sprays — dihydroxyacetone (abbreviated as DHA) — triggers genetic mutations that could lead to cancer and damage the lungs.

And what about the spraytan salons that claim this DHA is Food and Drug Administration-approved for ingestion (in one video, a salon worker drinks it!) and is just plain harmless? Sorry, Charlie. They're confusing DHA in spray tans with DHA-omega-3 found in tuna, salmon, algae and algal oil. That goodfor-you omega-3 fatty acid is docosahexaenoic acid.

Two years after an ABC News expose revealed this common confusion, many tanning salons continue to claim, 'The solution we use is a nonSee OZ/Page B6

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.

Said sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum due under said Notice of Delinquent Assessment, with interest thereon, as provided in said notice, advances, if any, estimated fees, charges, and expenses of the Trustee, to-wit: $10,696.85 Estimated Accrued interest and additional advances, if any, will increase this figure prior to sale. The claimant, Pine Mountain Lake Association under said Notice of Delinquent Assessment heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a written Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located and more than three months have elapsed since such recordation. Please be advised that this property being sold is subject to a ninety (90) day right of redemption pursuant to California Civil Code Section 5715(b). Notice to Property Owner: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (916) 939-0772, using the file number assigned to this case TS No. 2013-0812. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. Notice to Potential Bidders: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself.

Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. 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. Payment must be in the form of certified funds payable to ATC.

Untreated fatty liver can progress to cirrhosis DEAR DR ROACH: My husband, who is 59 years old, has been diagnosed with"fatty liver."He is 5 feet 9 inches tall and weighs 300 pounds. He has struggled all ofhis life with his weight.

He has pain and tenderness in his upper rightside.He is scheduled for an endoscopy in two weeks. When the nurse called about the results &om his ultrasound with the fatty liver, all she said to do is "diet and exercise." I am worried thatthediagnosisismoreserious than they are saying. Can this lead toserious liverdiseaseorcancer?

He does drink alcohol. Since they gave him the diagnosis, he's been trying to cut back. He drinks four or five large mixed drinks on Friday and Saturday, and beer on Sunday. The nurse did not say anything about drinking. My husband was worried enough that he investigated the problem on the Web. I just don't know if he can do all this on his own, without help. I'm trying to get him to seea professional,atleastabout the weight loss.— N.H.

TO YOUI'

Good Health Keith Roach, M.D. ANSWER: Fatty liver disease is an increasing health problem, and a major cause of serious liver disease. Fatty liver often is divided into alcohol-related and non-alcohol-related.

Alcoholic liver disease occurs in people who drink 14 or more standard drinks per week (a "standard drink" is 14 gramsofalcohol— about 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine or a mixed drink, but these can vary in alcohol content). If you really mean the amounts you said, your husband could be drinking as much as 32 standard drinks on a 1Yidaynight alone.Although only about 6 percent of people who drink as much as your husband will progress from fatty liver to alcoholic liver cirrhosis, he

When West leads a low heart, which promises at least one honor in the suit, and dummy's king wins the first trick, East must play his queen. This serves two purposes: It tells partner about the queen and jack, allowing him to underlead the ace on the next round; and it unblocks the suit. Declarer will take the losing diamond finrtesse, whereupon the defenders can run four heart tricks — but only if East unblocked the queen at trick one.

There are two other points. From the Rule of Eleven, East knows South has only one heart above the six, so playing the queen cannot cost. And no, the queen cannot be a singleton ... unless South opened one no-trump with six hearts in his hand.

PULNNING Continued from Page Bl The form must be witnessed by two peopleorbe notarized,Endter said.

Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment The second form people should complete is called a Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment, Endter said. It clearly states what kinds of medical treatment people want or don't want toward the end of their life. It is recognized by ambulance staff as well, so if they see itposted on someone's re&igerator, they will know what to do or not to do, Endter said.

This form has four sections. The first asks if the person wants medical professionals to attempt CPR or "Do Not Attempt Resuscitation" (DNR). The second section asks if the person wants fulltreatment, selective treatment or

comfort focused treatment.

Full treatment is defined as prolonging life by all medically effective means.

A personcan also select "trialperiod of full treatment." It includes intubation, advanced airway interventions, mechanical ventilation and cardioversion.

Selective treatment has the goal of treating medical conditions while avoiding burdensome measures. This treatment includes comfort treatment and IV antibiotics and IV fluids, but does not include intubation. It allows noninvasive airway pressure and generally avoids intensive care. This option allows the person to check a box that only allows transfer to a hospital if comfort measures can't be made where they are (at home or nursing facility).

The third option is comfort focused treatment. This option has the primary goal of maximizing a person's comfort to relieve a person's pain and suffering with medication and use of oxygen and suctioning and manual treatment of airway obstruction.

The form's third section is where people decide if they want any forms of artificial nutrition including with feeding tubes.

The fourth section of the form is where the patient or their legally recognized decisionmaker and the doctor sign the form.

Copies of these forms should be kept

Pacquiao radiated confidence and e x citement Wednesday at the Wild Card gym in Hollywood before his latest workout in preparation for their bout May 2 in Las Vegas.

With the most anticipated fight in recent years looming ever closer, both boxers kept their public comments civil and mostly respectful this week. But Pacquiao laughed when told that the defenseminded Mayweather had called him "a very reckless fighter"onTuesday.

"Reckless fighter? That's how people like me and love me, because they like an exciting fight," Pacquiao said.

'Vile call this boxing, (and) boxing is more punching. We talk about punching."

Pacquiao (57-5-2, 38 KOs) has rarely skimped on excitement during his remarkable career as an eight-division champion, but the Filipino congressman realizes he is facingthe greatestdefensive fighter of their era. Mayweather (47-0, 26 KOs) has been nearly unhittable for most ofhis opponents during his perfect career.

Morris scores in 1st start; US topsMexico SAN ANTONIO — Stanford sophomore Jordan Morris scored early in the second half in his first start for the U.S. national team, Juan Agudelo added his first international goal in four years and the Americans dispatched Mexico by their traditional 2-0 score in an exhibition game Wednesday night.

Morris, a 20-year-old thought to be the first collegian to start for the U.S. in at least two d~des, scored in the 49th minute after Michael Bradley brought the ball upfield and passed to Gyasi Zardes.

The return pass ricocheted off defender Mario Osuna and was picked up by Morris at the top of the penalty area. He took a touch, broke in and slid the ball between the legs of goalkeeper Cirilo Saucedo from 10 yards.

Agudelo replacei Morris in the 65th and scored seven minutes later. Bradley made a long pass from the midfield line and Agudelo controlled it just outside the penalty area. He cut inside with half a dozen touches and beat Saucedo to the near post with a low shot from 19 yards.

It was the third international goal for Agudelo and first since March 2011. Playing his second international match since November 2012 and his first since March last year, he dropped to his knees and was mobbed by a group of teammates.

Beforea sellout crowd of 64,369, U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann improved to 3-03 against his team's regional rival.

No decision yet on Sharks'Todd McLellan SAN JOSE — The locker clean up, exit interviews and goodbyes began a lot sooner than

u sual for t h e San Jose Sharks after they missed the playoffs for the firsttime since 2003.

Answers about the status of coach Todd McLellan will still have to wait.

The Sharks held their annual clean out day on Wednesday with players undergoing physicals, management and coaches starting

to meet with players and the organization undergoing the reviewprocessafter a disappointing season.

But McLellan said he has not decided yet whether he wants to come back for the inalyearofhiscontractand f the organization hasn't decided whether to bring him back either.

McLellan said he needs to talk more with his family, as well as members of the organization, before that fi nal decision can be made. McLellan said he exp~ his future to be resolved by the time he leaves April 24 to coach Team Canadainthe upcoming World Championship.

General manager Doug Wilson said he will be reviewed by owner Hasso Plattner and then he will evaluate McLellan and the coaching staff to figure out why the Sharks fell 22 points in the standings and finished 12th in the 14-team Western Conference.

"As I was training for the Nike Women's Marathon, a college friend of mine who is from Newtown, Connecticut, wanted to put together

a team of runners to honor the victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary shooting," said Nunes, who will wear a purple butterfly on her shirt in memory of Catherine. "So I was asked if I wanted to be a part of that team, and I absolutely did. We ran the California International Marathon, and there were 26 of us running 26-miles, representing the 26 victims. Each of us ran fora victim. I ran for 6-year-

when they start adding some Maxwell House?

KEN'S CALL:NASCAR could use a modern

Can wemake ita decaf?

We refuse to imagine Michael Waltrip jacked up on coffee, but his race team just landed a partial sponsorship from Maxwell House — for five races later this year, then next February's Daytona 500 (with Waltrip driving). This year's fiverace deal will ride with Clint Bowyer, who hopefully won't mix it with his

Are you buying the Erik Jones hype?

How good is this coffee news?

when Maxwell House was on the hoods of Sterling Marlin and Bobby Labonte (as well as Mikey) in the early 1990s.

Kevin Harvick better check his mirrors for this bright-yellow object at Bristol Motor Speedway on Sunday.

GODSPEAK:He can win races, and it looks like he hasn't had his first shave.

KEN'S CALL:He beat Junior and Kez last weekend, and he looks like he's 12.

3. Roush looking

Kevin Harvick continues to be NASCAR's benchmark driver.

He has two wins, four seconds and has led 766 of 2,150

Give a nod to Martin Truex Jr. and the No. 78 Furniture Row

Roush Fenway Racing continues to look for speed from its cars. All three drivers finished in the teens at Texas. Bristol could be an opportunity for a breakthrough run for the struggling organization. One taste of success will get the Ford team back on the rails.

Bristol could provide the antidote.

Racing Chevy team for continuing their streak of top-10 finishes. Truex's ninth-place run at Texas was his worst finish of the season. It will be interesting to see how far the team can take this streak.

Bristol will be tough assignment.

"Everybody is doing a great job," said Harvick, who is the team's official cheerleader.

Note: He has only one career victory at Bristol.

What do we know about Erik Jones?

JOEY LOGANO VS.KEVIN HARVICK: Harvick bumped Logano's rear bumper in the closing laps at Texas, costing him a shot at a possible victory.

GODWIN KELLY'S TAKE: "Harvick and Logano both said it was 'just racing.'

But Logano said it with a mischievous smile on his face."

2. Mechanical grip Bristol is one track where handling — not horsepower or aerodynamics — is key. With that in mind, expect all three Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota drivers to challenge for the victory.

Bristol Motor Speedway is known for chewing up

race cars, and Sunday's race in NASCAR's coliseum won't beany diff erent. Business as usual as

far as busted-up stock cars.

KEVIN HARVICK

How is Kevin Harvick running so fast?

Maybe it'sbecause he wears his helmet too tight, and that's creating more speed in his brain.
