However, the county's largest water pur-

veyor is unable to capture much of that surplusfor local use due to a lack of storage space combined with a complicated set of circumstances brought on by the four-year drought.

"It's an unusual predicament," said Lisa Westbrook, spokeswoman for Tuolumne Utilities District, which serves roughly 44,000 county residents. "Pinecrest filling and spilling is a great thing, but we' re still not out of the woods."

Pinecrest, which holds a maximum capacityof18,366 acre-feet,is one oftwo reservoirs owned and operated by Pacific Gas and Electric Co. that hold the majority of TUD's annual water supply. The other, Lyons Reservoir ,is expected tobe m aintained at about82 percent ofits5,500 acre-footcapacity through the duration of the spill.

OUR VIEW

e u u a ou r o u n a o u s ?

We' ll fill a column today with a roundabout conversation about — well — roundabouts.

They' ve been the talk of the county (OK, maybe a small slice of the county) for months.

The City of Sonora has one planned as part of the "Vision Sonora" revitalization project proposal.

This roundabout would be located where Highway 49, Shaws Flat Road, School Street and Columbia Way intersect near Sonora High School.

Another has been discussed near Sanguinetti and Sanguinetti Loop roads.

The county inked a design contract in March.

The actual project, however, has apparently been put on ice since the county lost access to $450,000 intransportation dollars from the federal Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement Program.

Anyone be who has been caught in the spin cycle of a roundabout knows they can provide a disorienting experience.

Yet, the research shows they are actually safer than three- or four-way intersections and make for smoother traffic flow.

A surprisingly interesting article on the topic is "Safety Effects of Roundabout Conversions in the United States: Empirical Bayes Observational Before-After Study," in the 2014 Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board.

It looked at the traffic accident history of 23 stop-sign or signal-controlled intersections that were converted to roundabouts.

Crunching a lot of numbers and employing a five-point scale to rank crash severity (from "Killed" to "Only Property Damage" ), the authors found: • fatal or incapacitatingaccidents were about 90 percent lower in the roundabouts studied.

• there was a significant difference in the severityofcrashes that occurred (40 percent less serious in roundabouts).

Part of the reason, a layman surmises, is their awkwardness-by-design.

Driverstiptoe into roundabouts, not barrel through them. (The Federal Highway Administration suggests communities "educate" drivers about how to use them?).

Too, the modern designs are more fluid than the older traffic circles drivers in, say, Paris or New York experience, with their higher traffic speeds and entrances and exits nearly perpendicular to traffic.

Safety aside, an added bonus, another study found, is they reduce fuel consumption and driving time because there is no idling at stoplights. You' re in and out.

Proponentssay they also are safer forpedestrians and provide landscaping opportunities.

So while roundabouts seem out of place, or just gratingly trendy, we think there is a place for them in our community.

We haven'tventured opinions on many facets of Sonora's Vision plan.

However, one thing we agree on: We' re all about roundabouts.

GUEST COLUMN

o's ar ai T he Sacramento Bee and t h e

Los Angeles Times reported Tuesday that Rep. Loretta Sanchez, DCalif., would announce Thursday she would be running for retiring Sen. Barbara Boxer's seat.

At last, it seemed as if California Attorney General Kamala Harris, the only name Democrat in the race, might face some competition.

Then Sanchez claimed that the announcement email had been

sent out by mistake. Oops, as former Texas Gov. Rick Perry would say.

Then Team Sanchez sent out a press release that promised "a significant political announcement" Thursday.

If Sanchez does throw her hat in the ring,she fl ubbed her entrance. Harris may be the luckiest politician in California.

Not so California voters. Political scolds have been warning that

day — the California Democratic Party will vie for statewide office without a Latino on the ballot.

Hector Barajas, a Latino GOP consultant, sees a message here: It's as if the party is saying, "It' s OK for me to help you as long as you' re not in the club."

Democratic consultant Garry South acknowledges that when a party doesn't put up candidates who look like its voters, "that's a problem."

Nationwide, Republicans have two Latino governors. Democrats, nada.

D uring her 10 terms in t h e House, Sanchez has established herself as an important female voice on the House Armed Services Committee.

Mention her name in Washington and most insiders think of her coquettish Christmas cards, which featured her cat, Gretzky.

Kitschy, yes, but Sanchez has shown she knows how to win since she beat Rep. Bob Dornan, a GOP institution, in 1996.

The chance of a Republican's winning in November after the top-two primary is slim. Moderate Democrats have been left behind, as well.

Without a single vote cast, party biggies made the progressive Harris the establishment candidate.

During the 2010 election, she nearly lost to Republican prosecu-

In 2014, Republicans failed to produce a serious challenger.

Bay Area voters know Harris as San Francisco's former district attorney — the one who wouldn' t pursue the death penalty for a cop killer — but she is not so wellknown in Southern California.

"Nobody here knows who Kamala Harris is," California Target Book Publisher Allan Hoffenblum huffed.

As if to prove his point, the former GOP strategist mispronounced her name, as many people do.

Curtis Creek sespuicentennial

SonoraCia Council

Alcohol, pot penalties back

c oo o os anniversa air

By SEAN CARSON The Union Democrat

Curtis Creek School will commemorate its 150-year history this Saturday with a fair open to the community.

The event, called "Country Fair Days at Standard," is the culmination of a yearlong sesquicentennial celebration that has included an archeological dig of the original 1913 school site, mural paintings and classroom activities.

The school has funded all of this with a $20,000dollar grant awarded by the California Teachers Association.

Saturday's fair,&om 9 a.m. to 3 p.m ., will include activities and displays showcasing both student work from the past year and the school's heritage.

The first Curtis Creek School opened in 1865,and fairorganizershave tried to createa "historical" fair atmosphere for Saturday.

"We are bringing back things like archery, an egg toss, sack races, and country dancing with a live band," said Liz Miller, one of the Curtis Creek teachers organizing the sesquicentennial celebration.

The day kicks off with a p arade through the parking lot at 10 a.m. The school band will lead students and later perform traditional music &om the 1860s on the school's lower field.

"We' re highlighting the students' strengths whatever they might be," said Miller.

Students have also designed a Geocache trail, on which participants can search for hidden treasures using GPS coordinates. The trail will be open all day,with an instructional classoffered at 11:30 a.m.

A barbecue lunch hosted by the eighthgrade class will be available &om 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Other snacks like corn dogs, kettle corn and lemonade will be sold all day.

Historical sites on the school grounds will also be on display.

diana — called bedrock mortar — will be openforviewing throughout the day.

Earlier this year, students surveyed the stones and added the information to a statewide collection of data on grinding stones.

A commemorative mural — another grant-funded project — will also be on display. The mural was officially revealed Thursday. A member of the California Teachers Association was on-site Thursday to witness the school's use of the grant.

The mural's six panels depict world historyover the past 150 years — each panel representing 25 years. More than 65 students worked on the mural, deciding what events to include as well as

painting the panels. Local artist Tracy Knopf assisted with the project. ''We wanted each panel to be balanced," said Holly Azevedo, the teacher facilitator for the mural. eWe included pop culture, social events, art and notable figures. We made sure to get Tuolumne — especially Standard — history in each panel."

The process of constructing the mural, including early design drawings, will be on display Saturday.

Parking for the fair is available at Sierra Bible Church with shuttle rides to the school beginning at 9 a.m.

Under th e o r dinance, anyone caught drinking or smoking m a r ijuana in public within the city limits would be subject to penalties ranging from a fineto a misdemeanor.

The proposed penalties are:

ishable by a fine of up to $1,000 or a year in Tuolumne County Jail.

If approvedat Monday's meeting, th e p e n alties would takeeffect after 30 days.

Also at Monday's meeting, the council will consider adopting the hoursof-use for all public parks and cemeteries within the city.

H ours for a l l p u b l ic parks would be 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. Dragoon Gulch Trail and all city-owned cemeteries would be open from sunrise to sunset.

Penalties for violating the hours-of-use would be the same as the ordinance on drinking alcohol and smoking marijuana in public.

The board is also scheduled to consider: • Allowing a procession between the historic Red Church and Mother Lode Fairgrounds on June 20 for the Special Olympics Torch Run. • Approving a resolution declaring the city as too small to comply with a new law requiring businesses to recycle organic

The Calaveras Youth Mentoring Program has named Janice Basset, of Valley Springs, as its Mentor of the Month for May. As director of the Valley Springs Youth Center, Basset has worked to support young people in the community for five years, said Colleen Dolan, program coordinator. Basset began mentoring in 2013 and had been matched with Sara Willis, 11, of Valley Springs for more than a year.

Basset said the key to having joy in life is spending time with young people.

"Last Christmas, Sara was given a ukulele and she offered to teach me how to play," Basset said. "She was a great teacher, and now one of my favorite things to do is to play the uku-

ukuleles. When I'm with Sara, she brings out my best self."

Basset and Sara have made community servicea part of their friendship. Together, the pair volunteered during Valley Springs Kids Day, sold tickets to the Calaveras Family Showcase (and performed a ukulele duet together) and supported the Valley Springs Walk Run for Cancer. Sara also spent three weekends helping prepare for the Wallace/Burson Association's annual yard sale, which benefits the youth center.

"Every time we' re together, she teaches me something new," Sara said. "Since I' ve been matched with Janice, I am more confident speaking in front of people, and I' ve been do-

lele. I will forever treasure the memory of us

At St. Catherine's Church in Morgan Hill, the annual rafHes have raised more than $1 million over 30 years and contributed to the church's elementary school and the creationof a preschool and kindergarten program, Delisle

on a weekly basis.

The first Catholic church in Copperopolis , St. Ignatius of Antioch, was built in 1861 but burned down shortly thereafter. After rebuilding, the second church burned down as well. It was rebuilt in 1916, but by the mid-1960s, it was unattended and had fallen into disrepair. The Diocese of Stockton decided to demolish the church and sell the property.

Since 2007, St. Ignatius of Antioch has been holding Sunday Mass in Poker Flat. It has grown to a steady attendance of 60 parishioners and exceeds 100 during summer months and holidays.

Including all four churches, the parish serves daily and weekly Mass and offers preschool, vacation Bible school and assistanceprograms for the community.

Tickets are on sale for the fifth annual Corvette rafHe to benefit St. Patrick's Catholic Parish in Calaveras County.

Ticket sales end Aug. 16. A minimum of 600 tickets must be sold forthedrawing totake place. The drawing is scheduled for at 4 p.m. Aug. 16 at St. Patrick's Church, 820 S. Main St., in Angels Camp.

Tickets cost $100 each and include a wine and cheese reception during the drawing. The event, from noon to 5 p.m., will include a multicultural festival that will feature Mariachi music and several food vendors.

Tickets are available from any of the churches or by calling St. Patrick's at 736-4575.

For more information on the fundraiser ,call785-6215, 736-4575, email stpatricks acamp@sbcglobal. net, or go online to www.parishesonline. corn.

The fundraiser has been a success here in the foothills, he said.

"It's helped us save the churches," Delisle said, adding that a second priest was hired in 2014.

The names of all ticket holders willbe read before being put in the box, Delisle said.

It takes three hours to read all the names before the priest, Father Roily Pedtronio, draws the winning ticket at 4 p.m.

People don't have to be present to win. In fact, many past winners were absent, Delisle said.

In 2014, Murphys residents Annie and Ron Tanner won the Corvette, but chose to take the cash value instead.

Sacramento residents Joe and Patty Symkowick won the "Early Bird" drawing of a largescreen television set.

This year, the Early Bird drawing will include all tickets sold between May 1 and July 12. The winner will get a large fiat screen television.

St. P a trick's C a tholic Church in Angels Camp was founded in 1850. The original church building was built in 1859 and stood until 1902, when it was replaced with a new building. In 1981, that building was replaced with the existing church, church hall and classrooms, all of which were donated by the Crespi family.

Over the years, the parish grew to include the mission churches of Our Lady of the Sierra in Arnold, St. Patrick' s in Murphys and St. Ignatius of Antioch in Copperopolis.

Our Lady of the Sierra church was built in the late 1970s. Prior to that, Mass was held outdoors at Calaveras Big Trees State Park, Inde-

Study finds U.S. becoming more secular NEW YORK (AP) — The number of Americans who don't affiliate with a particular religion has grown to 56 million in recent years, making the faith group researchers call "nones" the secondlargest in t o tal n umbers behind evangelicals, according to a Pew Research Center study released Tuesday.

C hristianity is still t h e d ominant faith by fa r i n the U.S.; 7 in 10 Americans identify with the tradition.

49ers, Broncos announcejoint pracbces ENGLEWOOD,Colo.

(AP) —The San Francisco 49ers and Denver Broncos will hold joint practices in the lead-up to their Aug. 29 preseason game in Denver.

The 49ers will be the first opponent to use the Broncos' shiny new $35 million field house complete with hot tubs, locker rooms, meeting rooms and an indoor practice field in case of bad weather.

Last season, the Houston Texans had to load onto buses while still in uniform and shower back at their hotel several miles away following two joint practices with the Broncos.

The 49ers and Broncos, each with new coaches, will work out against each other Aug. 26-27.

Joint practices are becoming more popular in the NFL asteams pull back on the snaps starters get during the exhibition season. Nearly half of the league's 32 teams practiced against another team last summer, including the 49ers, who faced off against the Baltimore Ravens without any issues.

It was another story with the Texans and Broncos.

As Denver tackle Ryan Clady noted last year about joint practices: "There are going to be fights. It's kind of the nature of the game."

STOCKTON — After Tyler Casteel threw his 110th pitch of the afternoon, the senior walked off the mound hoping his Sonora Wildcats offense could score one more run to take the lead in the top of the eighth inning and break the 3-3 tie.

But his hopes would be dashed. The Wildcats could not give Casteel the go-ahead run and ended up surrendering one in the bottom of the inning as the No. 4 Capital Christian Cougars beat No. 5 Sonora 4-3 on a walk-off single in the second round of the Sacdoaqum Section Division V Championships at Billy Hebert Field in Stockton.

Following a 1-2-3 top of the first, the middle of the Sonora infield flashed impressive teamwork as shortstop CharlieDunn fielded a sharp grounder and flipped to second baseman Carter Denton, who threw a ball in the dirt, only tobe scooped out by Joe Montelongo for a 6%3 double play.

James Harden, who played less than a minute in the fourth quarter, scored 23 points — making all 11 of his free throws — and Dwight Howard added 20 points and 21 rebounds for the Rockets, who have won two straight games.

Game 7 is Sunday in Houston.

The Clippers were cruising with a 19-point lead in the third quarter, seemingly assured of earning the franchise's first berth in the conference finals. The Rockets scored nine straight to cut it to 13 heading into the fourth.

Sonora senior Carter Denton swings at a pitchThursday in the Wildcats 4-3 eight-inning loss to the Capital Christian Cougars.

CATS Continued from PageC1 telongo said. "I just wanted to put it in play and I was able to pull it down the line. That is what you work for, that inside belt-high pitch.

Ididwhat Ineededtodo togetthat runner in."

With one out, Casteel helped his own cause by grounding into a fielder'schoicetoscoreM ontelongo totie the game.

Casteel pitched a scoreless bottom of the second, and added another zero in the third when sophomore Bradley Canepa made a headlong dive with two outs to grab a scorched line drive and rob extra bases.

"Bradley is a competitor and it was killing him that he was a little off at the plate today," Sonora coach Scott Johnson said of Canepa's day at the plate. "But that's baseball. Your hitting is not going to be there everyday. He just missed the ball that he popped up, which could have easily been a double. But we stress as a coaching staff not taking the offense out with you on defense. It's two separate games and he has bought into that. He's a good player and he' s got great days ahead of him."

Casteel got himself into trouble to start the bottom of the fifth. He issued walks and the Cougars were set up with runners on the corners with only one away, but the senior got out of the inning only allowing one run to score and Capital Christian led 3-2 after five.

Casteel walked three batters in his seven innings of work, but he had to deal with a strike zone that changed pitch to pitch.

'They way to fight ofF an inconstant strike zone is just to keep throwing it in there," Casteel said.

"The calls were pretty terrible and it was getting in my head a little bit,

but I had to remind myself to shake it ofF and go to the next one. It's so hard when youare painting five pitches in a row and three of them are called balls, two are strikes, and they were all in the same spot."

Sonora tied the game in the top of the sixth when Kish lcd ofF the inning with a single to center.

Kish advanced to second on a wild pitch, and with one out, Eric Gillatt smacked a ball into the right-center field gap. Johnson held Kish at third, but with the throw going into home, Gillatt moved up to second base. Jackson McMillan grounded out to third, and the runners had to hold their ground. With two away, Nate Gookin beat out an infield single and Kish scored from third. The Wildcats tied the game 3-3.

"Capital Christian is big, strong, fast, athletic, and I think we were a little intimidated by them to start the game," Johnson said. "I think we were intimidated in the first inning, and then we realized that we can play with these guys. Once we realized that we could play with them, weplayed a heck ofa game.

There were some minor mistakes.

All fourruns scored against us were ofFof mistakes."

Casteel looked to have a shutdown bottom of the sixth, but a leadofF single put him back in the stretch. The Cougars were able to get a man on third with two away.

With a 3-2 count, Casteel struck out Mendoza on a high fastball, keeping the game tied at 3.

Casteel pitched a scoreless bottom of the seventh, and finished his day allowing three runs, one earned, on four hits while

let him know how I feel. When Eric got hit by the pitch, what do you say when the ump says, 'I don't know, I didn't see it and my first base ump didn't see it either.' How do you even counter that? ... With eve~ the umpires didn't cost us this game. Itwas a very competitive, hard fought game and we came out on the losing end."

Sonora could not score in the top of the eighth, and would give up the final run in the bottom of the inning on an RBI single to right.

"Capital Christian is a good team," Johnson said. 'They are not 23A for because they aren't good.

Look at their stats and look at what we held them to today. We lost a lot of one-run games this season. We lost thre. one-run games in league, and if those games go another way, maybe we get a higher seed if we were co-champions. Today we get another one-run loss. What a lot of people forget is we played five, and started four sophomores day in and day out. So we are going to have some position battles going into next year. I' ve got some outstanding sophomores, and some good sophomores on the JV team and some good freshman. I'm excited about next year. I see us developing into aprettygood team fornextseason."

asked for more from his ace.

"He isjust a great pitcher and he has pitched like this all year," Johnson said. "He's the guy when we need a stop and someone to take charge of this team, and today was just a reflection of that. He

Curtis Creek seventh-grader Emily van Noord, 13, heaves the shot put 24-feet, 10-inches to finish in fifth place.

MEET Continued from PageCl 46 years ago.

Garrettbettered the competition by over a half second, finishing in 13.48, .08 faster than Karen Lagomarsino ran for the same school in 1975.

Summerville eighth grader Dalton Tartar broke a24-year-old mark set by a localrunning great. Tarter was almost five seconds faster than his nearest competitor in the 400, finishing in a record time of 56.70 to top Darren Holman's 58.96 set in 1991.

Holman, racing for Sonora Elementary then, went on to set several records at Sonora High School, enjoyed a successful collegiate career and now coaches Wildcat long-distance runners and directs the locally-based Foothill Gold Track and Running Club.

While Curtis Creek didn't have any recordsetters, the school dominated the meet with over50 athletesofthe approximately 250 that competed.

Curtis Creek finished with 242 points, 80 more than second place Sonora (160). And in another surprise of the meet, tiny Tenaya came in third place with 126 points. Columbia was fourth (100) and Soulsbyville was fifth

(95).

The most outstanding athletes of the meet were: sixth graders Tenaya's Lucy Hessler and Michael Garrett and Aubrey McNamara of Curtis Creek; seventh graders Lily Lindsey of Sonora and Kane Rosko of Curtis Creek; and Columbia eighth graders Pullen and Garrett.

'Tm not going to blame it on the umpiring because we had our chances," Johnson said. "Some of the calls didn't go our way, but some of the calls didn't go their way, too.

BRIEFs Djokovic testel by Bellucci; Murray and Serena withdraw ROME (AP) — T opranked Novak Djokovic fought back from a set down to pull out a 5-7, 6-2, 6-3 win over B~ qua l i fier Thomaz Bellucci to reach the Italian Open quarterfinals on Thursday.

The 68th-ranked BeHucci gave Djokovic trouble with his powerful serving and groundstrokes and also exhibited extrao~ foot speed early on.

After Bellucci broke to take a 6-5 lead in the opening set, Djokovic put on a new pair of sneakers during

the changeover — a sign he wasn't comfortable.

Djokovic broke early in the second set and got the decisive break late in the third, extending his winning streak to 18 matches.

He will next face fifthseeded Kei Nishikori, who beat Viktor Troicki of Serbia 6-4, 6-3.

Earlier, Rafael Nadal became thefi rst player to break John Isner's serve in nearlya month, and he did it twice in a 6-4, 6-4 win.

Andy Murray and Serena Williams, meanwhile, withdrew fiom the last big warm-up tournament before the French Open, which starts in 10 days.

M urrayci ted fatigue following consecutive clay titles in Munich and Madrid, while WiKmm said she has a right elbow injury.

Isner held serve in 84 consecutive games stretching back to his last meeting with Nadal on April 16 in the Monte Carlo Masters, when Nadalbroke him in the third set and went on to win.

This time, Nadal broke to take a 3-2 lead in the first set with a forehand winner that landed on the line on his first break point. Then the Spaniard produced a whipping forehand return pass up the line off Isner's second serve to go up 5-4 in the second, and quickly closed it out from there.

NEW YORK (AP) — A federal judge in New York says a lawsuit challenging all-or-nothing sports TV p~ that r e quire purchasing all professional hockey or baseball games can proceed as a class action.

Judge Shira Scheindlin (SHEER'-uh SHIND-lin) ruled Thursday. She says all fans with some appetite for watching hockey and baseballbroadcastsare affected by league policies requiring consumers to buy all league games rather than just the games of one team or a few teams. Her written decision follows a three-day hearing in March.

Lawyers for the leagues have said fans who brought lawsuits agaumt Major League Baseball and the National Hockey League had failed to show common injuries warranting a class.

THE UN' DEMO CRAT

CYCLINC

Cavendish races to 3rd Tour of California stage win SANTA CLARITA (AP) — Britain's Mark Cavendish raced his third Tour of California stage victory and Latvia's Tom Skujins kept the overall lead Thursday in the rainy fifth stage.

Cavendish, the Etixx-Quick Step rider who won the first two stages, powered to the &ont in the final 200 yards to win the 95.7-mile leg &om Santa Barbara to Santa Clarita in 3 hours, 51 minutes, 37 seconds.

Cavendish waited for Australian

teammate Mark Renshaw to get to the &ont of the field.

"I had Mark Renshaw at the end, and as always he was cool and calm, but we had to dig deep," Cavendish said. "Daniel Oss attacked in last kilometer and Mark was cooked, so we couldn't go as fast as we wanted in the end. It was a headwind finish, and I knew I didn't want to jump early."

Cavendishhas 131careervictories, eight in the Tour of California.

Belgium's Zico Waeytens of GiantAlpecin was second, and Slovakia's Peter Sagan of Tinkoff-Saxo was third — in the same time as Cavendish.

Sagan, who won the fourth stage and finished second in the first three stages, gained four bonus seconds to cut Skujins' lead to 18 seconds with three stages left in the eight-day race.

Skujins, who rides for the American Hincapie Racing team, assumed the race lead with a solo win in the

third stage. He finished in the main field Thursday.

My guys did amazing," Skujins said. 'We managed to not let the break get too far ahead. We kept them close, 3:30 or so. We knew after the last descent that it could be tailwind, or tail-cross, fast finish, had them at 2 minutes.... It didn't get too out of hand."

France's Julian Alaphilippe of Etixx-Quick-Step was third overall,

44 seconds back.

With snow forecast Friday for the individual time trial in Big Bear Lake, race organuers have revised and shortened what was viewed as a key day for title contenders.

Instead of riding 15.1-mile time trial at more than 6,700 feet, the field will negotiate a 6.5-mile course starting and ending at the Magic Mountain theme park. Potential time gaps will be greatly reduced.

NFL

Commissioner Goodell to hear Brady suspension appeal FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP)NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said Thursday night he will personally hear the suspension appeal of Super Bowl MVP Tom Brady, who challenged the league's punishment for his role in using deflated footballs during the AFC championship game.

The NFL Players Association filed the expectedappeal about an hour before a 5p.m. EST deadline on Thursday, asking for a neutral arbitrator to hear the case. NFL spokesman Greg Aiello confirmed about six hours later that the commissioner had rejec ted therequest.

"Commissioner Goodell will hear the appeal of Tom Brady's suspension in accordance with the process agreed upon with the NFL Players

Association in the 2011 collective bargaining agreement," he said.

Union officials declined immediate comment. Patriots team officials and Brady's agent, Donald Yee, did not immediately respond to emails seeking comment &om The Associated Press late Thursday night.

Goodell' sdecision was fi rstreported by Bleacher Report.

While CBA gives Goodell control of the arbitrator, the players union said in a news release that "given the NFL's history of inconsistency and arbitrary decisions in disciplinary matters, it is only fair that a neutral arbitrator hearthisappeal."

Ifthe league and itsinvestigators are truly confident in its case, the union said, "they should be confident

enough topresent their case before someone who is truly independent."

The union did not detail the basis for the appeal. But in a 20,000-word rebuttal posted online by the Patriots' lawyers earlier Thursday, the team disputed the conclusions on matters of science, logic and law.

Attorney Daniel Goldberg's response claims the league's conclusions are "at best, incomplete, incorrect and lack context," claiming as one example that the "deflator" nickname used by a ballboy and cited in the discipline was about weight loss, notfootballs.

Goldbergrepresented the team and was present during all of interviews of team personnel. Patriots spokesman Stacey James confirmed

that the site wellsreportcontext.corn was genuine and "approved/supported by the team."

The NFL suspended the quarterback for four games on Monday, also finingthe defending Super Bowl champions $1 million and taking away two draft picks.

Brady's appeal only deals with the suspension and must be heard within 10 days. The team has not said if it will appeal its penalties, which include a first-round draft pick next year and a fourth-rounder in 2017, beforea May 21 deadline.

League-appointed i n vestigator Ted Wells found that Brady was "at leastgenerally aware" of plans by two team employees to prepare the balls to his liking, below the league-

mandatedminimum of 12.5 pounds per square inch.

But the team's rebuttal presented its own science that would explain the loss of pressure in a more innocuous way.

"The most fundamental issue in this matter is: DOES SCIENCE EXPLAIN THE LOSS OF PSI IN THE PATRIOTS FOOTBALLS?" Goldberg wrote before concluding, also in all capital letters, that it does.

The rebuttal also alludes to other incidents of ball-tampering that were not dealt with as harshly. And it says increased communication between Brady and the ballboys after the scandal broke were just normal expressions of concern, rather than evidence ofthe quarterback'sguilt.

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 h Ouniondemocrat.corn

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,eitherofwhich 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. 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 800-280-2832 for information regarding the trustee's sale or visit this Internet Web site http: //www.qualityloan.corn, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-14-618770-AB . 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 or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale.

eu over oiticst reatenso rien s i DEAR ANNIE: My best friend, "Clara," and I have known each other for 30years.We're both retired and live in the same town. Neither of us has a husband. We talk on the phone every day.

We getalong fi ne,exceptwe have never been able to talk politics. If I don't agree with her completely, Clara gets angry. I'm not allowed to have my own opinion. It's her way or the highway. Every time she gets mad at me, I'm always the one to pick up the phone and talk to her as though we' ve never argued.

Last month, we got into a heated discussion about our world problems, and we both hung up angry. I called Clara that evening, but no one answered, and she didn't call me back like she always does. This went on for two weeks, so I wrote her a letter explaining how sorry I am, but that I am entitled to my own opinion, the same asanyone else.I also said our &iendship is too important to let a

Annie's Mailbox ™ > silly argument end it. I haven't heard back.

Clara and I were the kind of friends who told each other everything, and I thought we had each other's back.

Her friendship meant eve~ g to me. But am I supposed to lie and say I think the same way she does just to keep the peace? She claims to be religious, but how can she not forgive something like this? I really miss my friend.— NEED SOME ADVICE DEAR NEED: These days, politics can make enemies out of anyone. Your best bet is to steer clear of the discussion altogether, because you know it only creates an argument. If Clara brings it up, simply say, "I don't want to talk about polities. How is your

daughter doing?" You shouldn' t need to apologize every time.

But is there a possibility that, rather than avoiding you, Clara is unwell? Could you check with someone to see whether she is OK? A mutual friend or relative can fill you in on her status and also act as an intermediary to put this latest argument behind yotL And keep itthere. We hope she's fine and you can reconcile.

A 30-year friendship shouldn't be thrown away over politics.

DEAR ANNIE: I am 91 years old and would like the ability to cry at a death or a funeral or anything sad.

What is wrong with me? I feel that I should cry at these times and am hurt when others remark on it.

PADUCAH, KY. DEAR PADUCAH: Everyone responds differently to various emotional events. An inability to cry at all is often a sign of depression, brain injury or illness and

should be checked by a physician. But if your problem is that you simply cannot cry at sad events where others are present,

it's more likely you have an inhibition against showing extreme emotion in front of others, something that may have been reinforcedsince childhood.

It doesn't mean you aren't sad, and you don'tneed to apologize.

How you display emotion at funerals is nobody's business. If faking it would make your life easier, pull out a handkerchief and pretend to wipe your eyes now and then.

Home-test kits for screening cancer advisable DEAR DR. ROACH: Do home colon-cancer testing kits really help in the diagnosis of colon cancer? Do you recommend them? — E.F. ANSWER: I strongly recommend colon cancer screening for healthy peoplebetween the agesof50 and 70.

Based on other risk factors, some people need testing at a younger age, and for some, it might be appropriate to continue testing beyond age 70. Home tests have the potential to screen people who might otherwise be unable or unwilling to get screened in a doctor' s ofEce. In my opinion, the home test that combines a screen for colon cancer DNA and blood (multitarget test) is better than the fecal immunochemical test (FIT), based on a 2014 study showing better sensitivity. The multitarget test identified 92 percent of the cancers found by colonoscopy. The home test isn't perfect: Of all the positive test results, only about halfhad cancer or polyps, and the remainder had no abnormalities.

Colonoscopy remains the best test,

Birthday for May 16.Planning makes all the difference.

Imagine ways to beautify your home this year, and make a change or move after 6/14. Watch the budget to grow your investments. Begin a new chapter in a fun romance after 10/13. Let go of something that no longer serves after 10/27. Shower the people you love with love.

Aries (March 21-April 19):Today is a 9 — Make extra m oney over the nexttwo days.Avoid breakage and arguments. Don't run with sharps. Take it slow and steady.

Friends inspire action. Do what it takes to get the team fed. Household finances take top priority.

Taurus (April 20-May 20):Today is a 9 — There's more work available today and tomorrow, depending on your level of intention. How much will you take on? Invest in your own dreams. Play and explore. Sell a crazy idea.

Your team keeps you grounded. Listen to them.

Gemini (May 21-June 20):Today is a 6 — Start investigating new options. Contemplate potential outcomes.

DEAR DR, ROACH: I have not heard your thoughts on &ozen shoulder. I have had this now for about eight months, and I am exercising my arms in different ways, which I was told to do. Norelief.M y doctor does not suggest a shot in the arm. What are your thoughts on this? — P.P. ANSWER: Adhesive capsulitis, also called frozen shoulder, is exactly what it sounds like: a severely limited range of motion of the shoulder. It can occur by itself, or after trauma or immobilization, and with thyroid disease. It' s more common in people with diabetes.

Your doctor is right that movement exercises are key, but after eight months with no relief, it's time to get more aggressive. I usually try a steroid injection and a referral to a physical therapist. If this still doesn't work, it' s timefora referraltoan orthopedicsurgeon.

Today in history Today is Friday, May 15, the 135th day of 2015.

There are 230 days left in the year.

Today's Highlight in History: On May 15, 1975, U.S. forces invaded the Cambodian island of Koh Tang and captured the American merchant ship Mayaguez, which had been seized by the Khmer Rouge. (All 39 crew members had already been released safely by Cambodia; some 40 U.S. servicemen were killed in connection with the operation.)

On this date: ln 1930, registered nurse Ellen Church, the first airline stewardess, went on duty aboard an Oaklandto-Chicago flight operated

by Boeing Air Transport (a forerunner of United Airlines). ln 1940, DuPont began selling its nylon stockings nationally. The original McDonald's restaurant was opened in San Bernardino, California, by Richard and Maurice McDonald. ln 1963, astronaut L. Gordon Cooper blasted off aboard Faith 7 on the final mission of the Project Mercury space program. ln 1970, just after midnight, Phillip Lafayette Gibbs and James Earl Green, two black students at Jackson State College in Mississippi, were killed as police opened fire during student protests. ln 1972, Alabama Gov. George C. Wallace was shot and left paralyzed by Arthur H. Bremer while campaigning for president in Laurel, Maryland.

(Bremer served 35 years for attempted murder.) ln 1988, the Soviet Union began the process of withdrawing its troops from Afghanistan, more than eight years after Soviet forces had entered the country.

BIID alter your options. It's best to be authentic. Make plans with someone who sparks your creativity. Kindle profitable possibilities today and tomorrow. Set limits, or work interferes with family time. There's no need to rush.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22):Today is a 7 — You are more patient with finances over the next few days. Join forces with someone else for funding. Discuss your dreams, and how you can support each other. Stay objective about a hot topic. The actions you take inspire your team.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):Today is an 8 — Compromise is your magic ticket today and tomorrow. Let your partner drive. Delegate more to others. Be spontaneous, not reckless. Change direction intuitively when a creative spark ignites. Take slow, deliberate steps. Find something you' ve been long seeking.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 9 — It's gettingbusy! Focuson making money fora few daysasthe workload increases. Check out an interesting suggestion.

Friends come through for you. You' re developing a new perspecti ve.Clean up messes ss you go.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 Jan. 19):Today is an 8 — Romance and games take priority for the next two days. Get into an investigation. Listen for hidden elements. Practice your favorite skills, and make an amazing discovery. It doesn' t need tobe expensive.Play and havefun!

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):Today is a 7 — Home and family take center stage now. Fix up your place. Get creative with color and texture. Adapt to schedule changes.

Have the party at your house. Invite everyone. Then you have a deadline for cleanup.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20):Today is a 7 — Consider recent circumstances. Unexpected events could offer new options, if you look beyond the obvious. Study and research. Imagine the consequences. Share your feelings with someone you trust. Make a decision. Take a leap of faith.

"I always sit East-West."

Dealer: North lt is almost always better to play in the 4-4 Vulnerable: East-West fit, not the 5-3 fit, because you have a good chance to get an extra trump trick by ruffing a loser in one hand or the other. And the 5-3 fit will usually deliver two discards. A 4-4 side 8V Pass 4V All P a ss suit can never provide a pitch.

Here, four hearts looks in trouble, given

the bad trump break, but it can be made if de-

Openi n g lead: I A

clarer is careful after West starts the defense with three rounds of diamonds. How? lt would be easy to get careless after ruffing the third diamond by assuming a 3-2 trump break. If declarer immediately draws two rounds of trumps, here he goes down.

South should see these 10 tricks: five spades, three hearts, one club and the diamond ruff. At trick four, he should run the heart 10. Yes it loses, but East has no answer. Even if he tries the fourth diamond, South ruffs with his heart nine, draws trumps, and claims.

Your dog could be a brainiac LOS ANGELES (AP) — When her muscles locked and left her unable to move or speak, Wallis Brozman was glad she had a genius for a service dog.

Brozman, who has a movement disorder called dystonia, had taken her golden-Labrador retrievermix, Caspin, outside for a potty break without attaching the pulling harness he wears to guide her. Suddenly, she couldn't move.

"I couldn't talk or yell. I had no phone to text a message. I thought I would be stranded until someone found us," said Brozman, who lives on her own in Santa Rosa, California, with a wheelchair and Caspin, who

understands English antI sign language.

Caspin put his neck under her hand until she got a finger looped on his collar.

"Then, very slowly, he started to pull me forward. He pushed the door open. Then he stayed by me until I could function enough to getinto bed,"she said.

Caspin ranks as a Protodog, a spontaneous pooch that bonds easily and can solve problems on its own or with people, according to dog intelligence measures created by scientists and trainers. The Dognition Assessment uses 20 games to determine a dog's level of empathy, communication, cunning,memory and reasoning.
