Dry diggings in February — rain total only .04 inches n Current trends

indicate dry year ahead Dawn Hodson Staff writer

In the span of 141 years of climate records, there has never been a warmer January than last month, according to scientists at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's National Centers for Environmental Information. And February isn't looking a whole lot better, at least in terms of rainfall.

Sierra Littlefield, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service, said this is one of the drier Februaries we've had in Placerville and as of Feb. 26, we've only received .04 inches of rain. But all is not lost as the region might close out the month with a trace more rain as the National Weather Service is predicting that Saturday will be cloudy with a 10% chance of showers after 4 p.m. Sunday there is also a slight chance of showers. Monday and Tuesday are forecast to be sunny with a high near 62 on

Monday and 63 on Tuesday. Littlefield said there have been times in the past when February has been dry. In 1953, for example, the area only received .08 inches of rain in Placerville. But on average the amount of rainfall in February is closer to 6.5 inches. Fingers are crossed that March will be better. The March average is 5.85 inches of rain, although there is considerable variation. Littlefield said that based on available data, the area received as little as .11 inches rainfall back in 1926 and almost 16 inches in 1991. And

while the area is bound to get more rain before spring is over, Littlefield said there is a 50% chance that the area will receive less than the average amount for March. All this dry weather is quite a change from last year when it seemed it would never stop raining and snowing in El Dorado County and elsewhere in the state. In Placerville, for example, rainfall was 131% of average by the end of last May; at Sly Park, 140% of average; at Pacific House, 142% of average; and 127 % of average at the Georgetown Ranger Station. Blamed on El Niño,

all that extra precipitation helped fill local reservoirs. It also helped create a thick snowpack that acts like an extra reservoir until the snow melts. Across the Sierra Nevada range, the snowpack was 203% of normal with Squaw Valley receiving 714 inches of snow as of May 22 and Mammoth Mountain Ski Resort staying open until August because of all the extra snow. El Dorado Irrigation District Director of Operations Dan Corcoran on Monday gave a presentation to the EID Board of n

What to know about local measures Dylan Svoboda Staff writer While prospective elected officials garner the headlines, local measures are largely overlooked. Below is a list of issues El Dorado County voters will decide on come March 3 — if they haven't already mailed in their ballot. The future of community colleges, high schools, cemeteries and snow removal services, among other matters, will be determined at the ballot box. Don't show up uninformed.

Measure A El Dorado Unified High School District This measure aims to improve El Dorado Unified High School District schools. The measure would authorize $120 million in bonds for the school security system, plumbing, electrical system and classroom improvements and repairs. The bond also calls for upgrades to the district’s science labs and career training facilities, with a focus on mathematics, science, technology, the arts and skilled trades. If passed, the measure would cost property owners about $16 per $100,000 of their home’s assessed value, bringing in approximately $8 million annually for the district. All bond monies would be spent locally and overseen by a citizen oversight committee and supervised by annual independent audits.

Measure B

Lake Valley Fire Protection District This measure would implement an annual $52 special parcel tax. The funds would go toward improving fire protection and suppression and medical emergency services through purchasing and improving fire vehicles and equipment. The tax would bring in an estimated $432,900 in revenue for the district. The tax would be overseen by an independent citizen oversight commission and imposed until ended by voters.

Measure C Kelsey Cemetery District This measure would levy a special tax no higher than $8 per parcel annually. Revenues would be used for building, roads, grounds and record-keeping improvements for the Kelsey Pioneer n

Carol Elizabeth (Lipton) Winter

June 4, 1954-Dec. 3, 2019

Charles Snyder: May 16, 1930Dec. 22, 2019 Juanita Snyder: Feb. 14, 1932-Feb. 19, 2020

Charles “Chuck” R. Snyder and Juanita “Nita” C. Snyder, residents of Placerville from 1961-69 and from 1991-2002, died recently in Mesa, Ariz., after 67 years of marriage. Mr. Snyder, 89, died on Dec. 22, 2019. He was a retired mechanical engineer who contributed to the nation’s space exploration and nuclear power programs. Dr. Snyder died on Feb. 19, 2020, five days after her 88th birthday, and 59 days after her husband’s death. She was a retired psychologist, teacher and homemaker. The son of a Methodist minister, Chuck was born in 1930 in Casper, Wyo., and moved to California in 1948. He earned his bachelor’s degree and master’s degree in mechanical engineering from the University of California, Berkeley. Dr. Snyder was born in an Oklahoma farmhouse on Valentine’s Day 1932, delivered by her grandmother. Her family moved to California in 1936 to escape the Dust Bowl and so her father could find work during the Great Depression. Chuck and Nita met at church and married in Oakland, Calif., in 1952. Children soon followed; Bill in 1953, Susie in 1954 and Judy in 1957. In 1960, after a stint at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Chuck joined a team at Aerojet in Sacramento that worked on a nuclear rocket for a manned trip to Mars. That’s when the family moved to a house on Highway 49, about three miles from Coloma. The children attended Gold Trail School and El Dorado High School until 1969, when Chuck took a job at the National Reactor Testing Station in southeastern Idaho. Later he worked for General Atomics in San Diego, Argonne National Laboratory and the Bechtel Corporation in San Francisco. While in Idaho, Nita earned her master’s degree from Idaho State University in Pocatello and taught a high school psychology course. In 1979, while in San Diego, she earned a doctorate in human behavior from United States International University. While in the San Francisco Bay Area, Nita provided counseling services to men in recovery at the Salvation Army and had a private practice. After she and Chuck retired in 1991, they returned to Placerville and built a log house big enough for family reunions. They moved to Eugene, Ore., in 2002, and to the Phoenix area in 2014. Survivors include their children; Bill (Yvonne) Snyder of Nashville, Tenn., Susan (David) McVicar of Sparks, Nev., and Judy (Ronald) Cirullo of Scottsdale, Ariz.; Chuck’s sisters Lois Misfeldt of West Sacramento, Calif., and Alice Carter of Albuquerque, N.M., Nita’s brother Lewis Vaught of Orinda, Calif., and her sister, Marie Long, of Lexington, S.C.; six grandchildren and five great-grandchildren.

Carol Winter passed suddenly at home in Placerville, Calif., on Dec. 3, 2019 at the age of 65. Carol was born in Woodland, Calif., on June 4, 1954 to Werner and Joan Lipton. Carol spent most of her early life in Fresno, Calif., graduating from McLane High School in 1972, and California State University, Fresno in 1976. She was a member of Delta Gamma Sorority. Carol met her husband Rod Winter in 1970 and they were married on Oct. 19, 1979. Carol worked at American Airlines as did her husband who retired after 34 years. Over the years, they traveled the world together. Carol was an avid jogger, skier and serious cyclist for most of her life. She belonged and rode with many clubs in the Sacramento area and she considered so many of her fellow cyclist friends her extended family. She always came back from her many rides with a big smile and a story. Carol is survived by her husband, daughters Amber and Jill of Pollock Pines; mother Joan Lipton of Fresno; sister Marian London of San Jose; and brother Allen Linov of Boston, Mass. A celebration of Carol’s life will be on Saturday, March 14 at Shadow Ridge Ranch, 3700 Fort Jim Road in Placerville from 12-3 p.m. Pictures and stories of her adventures are appreciated.

Nothing lasts forever

Valerie McCarty

Oct. 28, 1952-Feb. 8, 2020

Valerie McCarty, beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, friend, and teacher died peacefully on Feb. 8, 2020, at her Georgetown home. Valerie was born in Redwood City, Calif., on Oct. 28, 1952, to Ernest and Shirley (nĂŠe Valis) Adornato. She joined her brother Bruce, and was, in turn, soon joined by sister Marilynn and brother Brian. She met her husband, Bob, when she was on the verge of turning five and he had just turned seven; blissfully unaware that they were destined for each other. Valerie moved several times during her childhood. The first move was to New Jersey after completing sixth grade, then on to Florida, and finally a return move to the San Francisco Bay Area at the start of her junior year in high school. She and Bob began courting and eventually married in 1971 after completing their freshman year of college. They continued their education together but left college, without degrees, after four years when their oldest son was born. They returned to the Bay Area to be near family while they grew their own. Tired of renting; they began a hunt for a place to call home and thru serendipity and circumstance found themselves in Georgetown on Founderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day 1975. They decided to have a look around and quickly found two acres upcountry that they purchased and named Rainbowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s End. Another four years elapsed while they continued their lives in the Bay Area. In 1979 after Bobâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s job disappeared to recessionary pressures they decided that if they had to start over it would be at Rainbowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s End, where the sky was blue, the trees were green, and the air was pure and clean. Together they made a life in Georgetown, the place that Valerie truly loved. Valerie always loved children. As a tween and a teen she babysat regularly. When her children came, she wanted to be a guiding presence in their lives so she ran a daycare/preschool out of her Bay Area home. When she arrived in Georgetown she quickly found work with Head Start. As her children continued their education at Georgetown School she began volunteering in the classroom. Eventually the BOMUSD hired her to work as an aide. Fourteen years later, when her youngest graduated high school, Val returned to college, completed her degree in psychology and earned her teaching credential. She accepted a position at Otter Creek School where she taught K-2 for ten years until an injury triggered the onset of refractory rheumatoid arthritis. Valerieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deep love of children combined with a patient and caring nature made her an ideal educator of young minds. Valerieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s love of children was matched by her love for her friends and family on and off the Divide. She made and kept friends easily, always quick to share her smile. She loved to talk and to listen. One could rightly say that Val never met a stranger. Twelve and one half years ago Val was stricken with rheumatoid arthritis. It slowly robbed her of her independence and forced her to retreat from community life. While disease caused her body to fail it never touched her spirit. She remained joyful and positive despite her personal physical pain, presenting all with an example of the power of choice. Although it would have made some things easier, she elected to remain in her home on the Divide. Her greatest delight during this time were her six granddaughters. She would spend hours talking to them on the phone, even if her condition prevented her from seeing them in person. Her personal motto (which she borrowed from her grandmother who was similarly afflicted) was, live in hope, die in despair. Val lived with hope and love all her days. Valerie was predeceased by her parents. She is survived by her siblings, by her husband, Bob; by her son, Devan and his wife Candice and their daughters Isabella and Guilianna; her son Jesse and his wife Emily and their daughters Sophia and Lilly; and by her daughter Sierra, and her husband Chris Hayes and their daughters Ashlynn and Brianna; as well as extended family and numerous friends and colleagues. We will celebrate Valerieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s amazing life with family and friends on Saturday March 28 beginning at 12 p.m. at the IOOF Hall in Georgetown. In lieu of flowers please donate to the â&#x20AC;&#x153;BOMUSD Scholarship Fundâ&#x20AC;? at BOMUSD 6540 Wentworth Springs Road, Georgetown, Calif., 95634.

The Tibetan Buddhist Monks of Gaden Shartse Monastery concluded their visit to El Dorado County Saturday, Feb. 22 with a sand mandala dissolution ceremony. During the ceremony the monks cleared away a Green Tara sand mandala they began creating Feb. 14. The process of meticulously forming the mandalaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pattern over nine days was a lesson in patience and impermanence â&#x20AC;&#x201D; both key concepts in buddhist philosophy and culture. The monks next stop on their tour of North America is centered at the General Gomez Arts & Events Center in Auburn.

California Matters

Gov. Newsom’s spending more, saving less

hen Jerry Brown returned to the governorship in 2011 he faced what he called a “wall of debt” from years of severe economic recession and deficitriddled state budgets. Accordingly, he made paying off that debt, Dan Walters more than $30 billion, and armoring the budget against future recessions his top priority. Brown persuaded voters to approve what was supposed to be a temporary tax increase, mostly higher income taxes on the affluent, and later a “rainy day fund” that would cushion the effects of recession. Annually, as Brown presented his budgets to the Legislature he would display charts and graphs to punctuate his dire warnings about the potential impacts of recession and backed them up by insisting on directing extra revenues into reserves. Brown’s second governorship was blessed by strong economic recovery — the longest in recent history — and the recession he openly feared never occurred. By the time he departed in 2019, state reserve accounts had accumulated more than $18 billion. During his first year as governor Gavin Newsom largely hewed to Brown’s cautious approach to state finances. However, his second budget, unveiled last month, deviates from that course in a way that could spell fiscal calamity should the state be hit by the recession that Brown always saw on the horizon. It’s a rather subtle change because the economy continues to hum along and, on paper, Newsom’s 2020-21 budget looks to be a picture of fiscal health. However, the Legislature’s budget analyst, Gabriel Petek, and his staff spotted the change and in a new analysis they lay out the danger of spending virtually every dollar of projected revenue and making only minimal increases in reserves. A moderate recession could cut revenues by about $25 billion a year for three years but the state, under Newsom’s proposed budget, would have scarcely $20 billion in reserves to cushion its impact. That would be sufficient to cover a $47 billion revenue shortfall, Petek estimates, but only if state spending on K-12 schools and community colleges is also reduced to the minimum required by the state Constitution. His office had earlier assumed that reserves could be built to $23 billion if much of the state’s revenue gains were saved, rather than spent on new and expanded programs. “By proposing a budget with very small operating surpluses,” Petek writes, “the governor eliminates a key tool of recession preparedness. In a stillgrowing but now mature economic expansion, supplementing the state’s fiscal resilience by preserving a larger operating surplus would be prudent.” Why the change of fiscal attitude? Newsom is outwardly more liberal — or “progressive” in the preferred nomenclature of the political left — than Brown. That is, he’s more willing to spend more on new and expanded health, welfare and education services than Brown, who was reluctant to commit the state to expensive n

Letters to the Editor Farmers support Measure A EDITOR: s fellow farmers, we would like to thank the El Dorado Winery Association, the El Dorado Farm Trails and the Apple Hill Growers Association for all having endorsed Measure A. Knowing that farmers tend to be fiscally conservative, one might expect some resistance to a new bond measure. However, the facts that this bond measure will repair our aging high schools, provide for our school’s ag programs (as well as other programs), help retain home and land values with quality schools all while keeping the funds local seemed to be important arguments. Add to this that our rural community may have a unique opportunity of getting matching funds from the state of California (up to $72 million) and these three farming organizations overwhelmingly support Measure A. Sometimes farmers know best and Measure A is one of those times. PAUL & MAGGIE BUSH Madroña Vineyards

Hidahl has the county’s best interest at heart EDITOR: lease vote to elect John Hidahl to a second term as El Dorado County supervisor in District 1. John is a strong, honest, hardworking leader dedicated to serving the community and worthy of continuing his excellent performance. I have known John for over 20 years, at first at a distance. We worked together at Aerojet although in different departments. More recently, for about four years, John and I have been working with Continuum of Care, EDOK, Nomadic Shelter and other organizations seeking to develop sound and long-term solutions to the problem of homelessness in our county. John strives to serve the best interests of all and is open to creative problem-solving. I am aware that John served on the El Dorado Hills Fire Board and represented District 1 on the county Parks Commission. As supervisor he currently sits on 16 committees representing El Dorado County. He appears to be tireless as you will see him at events and meetings throughout our community. John is a long-term resident of El Dorado Hills. He is focused on countywide issues but makes sure El Dorado Hill issues are clearly represented to the other four county supervisors who may not always understand the unique concerns of this suburban

area. John Hidahl strives to maintain and improve our quality of life. He cares and exhibits this care by listening to his constituents, asking questions and thoroughly researching available data. After processing the information he makes decisions. Vote for John Hidahl to continue representing both El Dorado Hills and the entire El Dorado County. DON VANDERKAR Placerville

Re-elect John Hidahl EDITOR: fter the horrible “hit-piece” on John Hidahl by Ron Briggs — is that someone you can trust to help you in the county? Briggs recently moved (to El Dorado Hills) so he can’t have too much invested in our community except trying to get rid of a good man. When I personally heard John say, “I will listen to the will of the people,” in regard to the no rezone for the old golf course I knew he meant it. The people showed up in the hundreds and not a single vote was for the rezone, not one. John has shown the necessary leadership to work on controlled and manageable growth for this county. He is honest, community involved and not afraid to make the hard choices. This is not the time to bring in an outsider who has no real reason for coming to El Dorado Hills other than to be closer to the developers’ money. I trust John Hidahl with the future of our community in his hands. You cannot find a better candidate or person than he. We are fortunate to have him. Let him keep working. HUGH W. BACA El Dorado Hills

Response to Tom McClintock letter EDITOR: recent letter about Tom McClintock grossly misled the people of our district. While the letter writer was quick to point out that Mr. McClintock was absent for one vote, they failed to mention that he has missed less than 1% of the 7,771 votes that have taken place since we elected him to Congress. This is quite impressive, considering even House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has missed over 1,000 votes. They also failed to mention that on that same day Mr. McClintock supported our veterans by voting for both the Veteran Entrepreneurship Training

It’s Always Something Else

Teach your children what you really want to see

hy are we spending millions of dollars creating programs and training mentors to teach kids not to bully? Schools have zero-tolerance bullying policies, children are encouraged to say something if they see Wendy something, children’s TV programming features stories about how to deal with bullies and the phrase “body-shaming” is now a part of our anti-bullying vocabulary. But why are we wasting our time? Despite our best intentions to create a society that is inclusive and diverse in which all children feel safe at home and in their schools and accepted for who they are, just as they are, we are doomed to failure. And this is why: Children may not always listen to what you say but they always watch what you do.

We have allowed a man to become president whose words, both written and spoken, slander our elected representatives and the heads of other nations and we give his libels and slander a worldwide venue. We have allowed a reality show personage Schultz with no experience in public service or politics to become the leader of our country — a person who sees nothing wrong in bullying the leader of a foreign country to investigate his political opponents and who uses the power we gave him as a vindictive weapon, much like Henry VIII and Joseph Stalin, who murdered anyone opposing them. We have allowed our elected representatives to bully each other and coerce their own membership into hewing to a party platform instead of using their

integrity and intelligence to serve the people who elected them. We have done this — sabotaged every positive intention of rooting out the bully by allowing the Chief Ogre free rein. We have allowed our media to become infested with Trump tweets, Trump’s innuendos, Trump’s threats against those he perceives are against him. We have allowed our power as a people to become subverted by our elected representatives and no one is doing anything to stop this. People seem to be waiting for someone or something to call a halt, just as Germans stood by and allowed Hitler more and more power to pursue his own agenda. A child who comes home from school, fresh from signing an antibullying pledge, is busily making a sign against bullying for tomorrow’s anti-bullying assembly and what is on the television? Replays of Trump’s ugly remarks about the Democrats being evil, of Nancy Pelosi ripping up Trump’s “manifesto of mistruths,” of

Trump going after and discrediting every person who testified against him during impeachment, Trump tweeting lies about anyone he cares to tear down. They would see the leader of this country lie, later admit that he had done the thing he lied about and then refuse to allow lawfully requested documents and subpoenaed witnesses to appear in a trial he later says is a sham because there are no witnesses. And they will see that there are no consequences. None. So why are we wasting our time teaching stuff we don’t practice? Why do we teach our children that there are three equal branches of government when there is only one at the moment — the other two having rolled over and given the nation up to the Chief Bully? We can’t teach our children and grandchildren by our own examples because we have given the power in this nation to a bully. Every day

Dawn Hodson Staff writer Amidst much anguish and gnashing of teeth, the El Dorado Irrigation District Board of Directors unanimously approved a $42.7 million dollar project on Monday that's been on EID's to do list since 2011. Called the Folsom Lake Intake Improvement Project, EID plans to replace the existing pump station that has been in service since the late 1950s and considered to be at the end of its useful life. The casings are corroded, water demands are growing and the companies that originally provided the pumps have gone out of business, making it virtually impossible to find replacement parts. The Folsom Lake intake provides approximately one-third of EID's water and is critical to supplying El Dorado Hills customers with water. In its place EID proposes to remove existing pumps and casings and construct four new submersible

replacement to address reliability concerns for El Dorado Hills customers

A vibrant, high-employment economy is one of President Donald Trump’s strongest arguments for re-election. Were recession to strike this year, it could doom his bid for a second term and help Democrats retake power in Washington, but it also would undercut Newsom’s constant boasting in the national media about California’s balanced budgets. Dan Walters is a journalist and author who writes for CALmatters.org, a nonprofit, nonpartisan media venture explaining California policies and politics.

Trump proves parents and teachers wrong — you can so be a liar and a bully and still be president; you can absolutely use “alternative facts” to tell the world all the amazing things you have accomplished and they will believe you; you can use your power to remove anyone who gets in your way and that’s OK; you can use the word “bullshit” at a National Prayer breakfast and that’s fine too; you can be a hater and decide to value and represent only the people who voted for you and deride the other half of the nation you are sworn to serve and that is also allowed. And you don’t have to have any knowledge of history or

science because you can just make stuff up. We have put our faith in the wrong people — people with agendas quite different from our own — and we have put our faith in our system of government only to see it crumble under the weight of party loyalty. It’s time to take our nation back, time to stop listening to the jellyfish in Washington, D.C., and make our own choices. Time to stand up to the Bully or forever shut up and crawl.

horoscope by Holiday Mathis n today ARIES (March 21-April 19). No one is better or cooler than anyone else. However, those who have taken more risks in a shorter amount of time will certainly come off as heroes. Worship cautiously. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’ll be like a tree rooted in the earth that is the element of your sign. You’ll stay grounded and grow incrementally, defying timelines. And you’ll let go of and regrow your “leaf” equivalents in due time. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). To run your whole life on adrenaline is not a sustainable model. It won’t work in the long term. Though, certainly, the adrenaline challenges you set up in the short run will be a burst to get you to the goal. CANCER (June 22-July 22). People do well-intended and super embarrassing things in the name of peerpressure, connection and fitting in. You’ll be an observer in this today, resisting participation, as you should in this case. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The energy that goes into making an impression will be well spent. It’s not because you’ll make the intended impression; rather, it’s that you’ll learn something about yourself, what matters to you and how much. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Diversity makes groups strong. This is true for your friend group as well. A mix of people with different strengths will add to your life, whereas a group that is too much of one thing won’t

have the spark. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’re an original. Saying the lines that others have said, sticking to the script, using the cliches, well, that gets old fast. It’s invigorating to express your uniqueness. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your best is good enough. Your pie wins the contest, and your special sauce garners worldwide intrigue. This is the stuff of fantasies and diary entries, so make sure you put the events and potential events of the day into both. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The sparkling parts of life are the in-between moments when you have nothing to gain, nothing to lose and nothing to tally in general. What’s most valuable is unquantifiable. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The correct next move is often not to the right or left or even straight ahead. The best move might be no move at all. To stand there until the world shifts is a real test of patience that will pay off. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The self-help gurus insist it: In every moment, we have a choice. But many moments go the way of programming. If there are choices, we are unaware. There’s no shame in this; it’s human. Waking up is step one. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Arthritis sufferers know that, though it sounds counterintuitive, moving the parts that don’t want to move will keep you pain-free. Use this as a metaphor for another part of your life.

Gilmore Vista County Service Area This measure would implement an annual $270 special tax on each improved parcel and $120 on each unimproved parcel of land within the Gilmore Vista Road Zone of Benefit. The tax would replace the existing assessments of $170 and $70. The funds would go toward snow removal, road improvements and maintenance. The district would generate annual revenue of $11,550. There is no sunset date for the tax.

Measure K Fernwood Cothrin Ranch County Service Area This measure would implement an annual $450 special parcel tax within Fernwood Cothrin Ranch Road Zone of Benefit. The tax would replace the existing $150 tax. Revenues would go toward road improvements and maintenance services. The tax would generate the district $118,800 annually. There is no sunset date for the tax.

Measure L Lynx Trail County Service Area This measure would implement an annual $500 special tax on each parcel of real property within the Lynk Trail Road Zone of Benefit for an unlimited duration. The tax would be an increase from the current $300 tax. The tax would generate $37,500 annually, which would go to road and maintenance services for the zone.

Measure M Snow Removal Zone South Lake Tahoe County Service Area This measure would implement an annual $80 special tax on improved parcels of land within the South Shore Snow Removal Zone of Benefit. The tax would replace the existing $20 parcel tax. The funds would go toward acquiring snow removal equipment. The measure would raise $536,720 for the zone of benefit. The tax would have a sunset date of 20 years. The money would be subject to annual oversight.

"I scared my dog when I got the memo (about the project cost)," said Director Alan Day, adding that he thought the bids reflect how busy contractors are right now. "Can the agency pick a more opportune time to carry out these bigger projects," he asked, adding that having to pay so much was a "tough pill to swallow." Abercrombie responded that putting off big projects would mean paying more later. Director Pat Dwyer said the agency also had to pay more for remediating Forebay Dam than expected. President George Osborne wondered if the agency could save any money on the project now given that water levels in Folsom are low because it's been a dry year. He said the contractor costs should be less on the underwater work. "Let's bite the bullet and do it," he said. Attorney Tom Cumpston, who previously served as EID's general counsel, said the project has been needed for over a decade. "It was in the 2011 CIP and cost $40 million," he reminded the board. In the end the board agreed, voting 5-0 to proceed with the project.

go into overtime.” After playing 80 minutes with the score tied up, Tokay and Oak Ridge played an additional 20 minutes of overtime. Although each team had a couple of good shots, neither could capitalize and the game went into penalty kicks. Each team would get five kicks from 10 yards out with nothing but the goaltender in front of them. If tied after five, each team would get an additional shot until the score was settled. Edwards stopped two of Tokay’s first three shots, but it wasn’t enough and the teams were tied 3-3 after each had

control device at EID's raw water pump station. The bureau originally agreed to contribute $3 million to the project. Later that amount was increased to $4.3 million. Staff said they are continuing to work with the bureau to revise its contribution given that the actual cost of the device is estimated at over $7 million. The bulk of the project cost will be funded by a bond issue of $75 million that EID General Manager Jim Abercrombie said he expects to present to the board for their consideration in either April or May. Abercrombie said the bond issue will pay for the Folsom project as well as other critical capital improvements. Money said delaying the project risks a $1.2 million yearly escalation in its cost, the unavailability of contractors and less competitive bids, risks to the water supply to customers primarily in the El Dorado Hills area if the pumps should fail and additional costs associated with having to rebid the contracts. In the discussion that followed, the board expressed considerable reluctance to approve the spending of so much money.

gone five times. In rounds six, seven and eight, each team scored. In round 9, Tokay scored to take a 7-6 lead, which became the final score when Oak Ridge missed its ninth and final shot. Tokay advanced to the section finals Saturday where it will play against Jesuit, while Oak Ridge’s season ends. “We had a great season,” Walke said. “We were undefeated and our whole year was full of incredible achievements. We have nothing to be ashamed of. We all have that feeling of disappointment together and we share that gut-wrenching feeling as a team.”

Williams. “We qualified for the first time in school history so thankfully we get to keep playing next week.” Williams added it has been an incredible season for the D’backs — who dealt with injuries all year — and he is proud his team found ways to win all year, go undefeated in league and host three home playoff games. “Liberty Ranch played great and they deserve to go on,” Williams said.

“We simply have to get back to work today and get ready for a chance to compete for a state championship.” D’back senior captain and forward Sean Akers led Union Mine with 22 points with junior guard Matt Hemmenway and senior small forward Anthony Vaughn adding 13 each. Liberty Ranch’s senior guard Jalen Patterson paced the Hawks with 28 points.

She has also been told that it’s good luck to know or meet a leap year baby. “They rub my thumb, shake my hand and give me hugs,” Henderson said. “All is welcomed.” For her birthday this year, she was planning on going on the 2020 Leap Year Day Cruise for leap day babies, which leaves from Port Canaveral in Brevard County, Fla., today. However, Henderson will not make it due to

recent surgery to remove an ovarian cyst. She said her surgery was successful. “I’m not sure how my 12th leap year birthday will be celebrated this year other than dinner with my husband and my in-laws,” Henderson said. “I am certain that I’ll be at church lighting a candle, on bended knees, my head bowed down with prayers, gratitude and thankfulness to my Lord Almighty for my successful surgery and for restoring me back to health. Those for me are the best birthday gifts I could ever ask for and receive.”

Roxie and the gang rock the Harris Center Dave Webb Harris Center for the Arts Broadway’s record-breaking smash “Chigaco” comes to Folsom’s Harris Center for the Arts for eight shows. Long identified with the legendary choreographer Bob Fosse, “Chicago” has been honored with six Tony Awards (including Best Musical Revival), two Olivier Awards and a Grammy. The No. 1, longest-running American musical in Broadway history, “Chicago” is set amidst the spectacular decadence of the 1920s — a musical that has all the stuff that makes Broadway memorable: knockout dancing, a ripped-from-the-headlines story about scandal and one show-stopping song after another, including “All That Jazz” and “Cell Block Tango.” Set amidst the razzle-dazzle decadence of the 1920s, “Chicago” is the story of Roxie Hart, a housewife and nightclub dancer who spitefully murders her on-the-side lover after he threatens to walk out on her. Desperate to avoid conviction, she dupes the public, the media and her rival cellmate, Velma Kelly, by hiring Chicago’s slickest criminal lawyer to transform her wicked crime into a barrage of sensational headlines, the likes

The show ended its Broadway run on Aug. 5, 2018, having played 700 performances and as the second longest running show in the history of the Longacre Theatre.

Featuring an original doo-wop

score, this is a tale about respect, loyalty, love and, above all else, family. “A Bronx Tale,” based on the original direction by two-time Oscar winner Robert De Niro and four-time Tony Award winner

Jerry Zaks, will feature tour direction by Stephen Edlund with choreography by Tony Award winner Sergio Trujillo. The creative team also includes Beowulf Boritt, scenic design; William Ivey Long, costume design;

Youth production shares message of hope Bridget Styles Sacramento Theatre Company

STC School of the Arts Young Professionals Conservatory students present a powerful play about hope when it seems all hope should be lost.

acramento Theatre Company School of the Arts presents the powerful moving play “I Never Saw Another Butterfly,” opening Wednesday, March 4. Based on the book of poetry created by the Jewish children who passed through the Terezin concentration camp. This story follows the experience of survivor Raja and her memories of living in Terezin. More than 15,000 Jewish children passed through Terezin and only about a hundred were still alive when it was liberated at the end of the war. Raja — having lived through it all, teaching the children when there was nothing to teach with, helping to give them hope when there was little enough reason for hope, creating a little world of laughter, of flowers and butterflies behind the barbed wire — tells the true story of the children. It’s her play and it’s theirs. There were no butterflies at Terezin, of course, but for the children butterflies became a symbol of defiance, making it possible for them to live on and play happily while waiting to be transported. Director Tori Johnson said she thinks that this is an important piece to be brought to the Sacramento community. “‘I Never Saw Another Butterfly’ illustrates the

true, horrific and brilliant diversity of human experience,” she said. “It shows that while we are capable of the most vile, hateful and soulless actions, such as the genocide of millions of innocent men, women and children, we are at the same breath capable of the most profound love, strength and artistry, that will illuminate the dark at our most hopeless of moments.” This production will feature STC School of the Arts Young Professionals Conservatory students. The Young Professionals Conservatory is a 10-month program for students in grades 8-12 that prepares students for careers in theater through master classes and performance opportunities with professional actors, directors and designers. Admittance to the program is through audition only. More information can be found by visiting sactheatre.org. “I Never Saw Another Butterfly” stars 29 talented students. The production is directed by YPC Program Manager Johnson. The design team includes Mika McKenzie-Bahr (set), Andrew Fiffick (lighting), Gina Coyle (costumes) and Courtney Mulford (stage management). Performances for “I Never Saw Another Butterfly” run March 4-8 at Sacramento Theatre Company, Main Stage, 1419 H St. in Sacramento. Tickets are available online at tickets.sactheatre. org, via phone at (916) 443-6722 and at the STC box office.

buttered and salty ‘The Invisible Man’ HHH 1/2 PG, 2 hours 4 minutes - Horror, Mystery, Sci-Fi Opens today

eigh Whannell’s “The Invisible Man” is an effective, smart and timely thriller. In an era where every known property from every possible genre is exposed and remade multiple times, Universal Studios and Blumhouse Productions found a way to bring something new and fresh to the proceedings. This is due primarily to lead Elisabeth Moss (“Mad Men,” “The Handmaid’s Tale”), who’s a force of nature in this film. She has the ability to build empathy in an audience while also towing the line between tormented victim and badass hero. There’s no one like her on television or film right now. We all know the story of “The Invisible Man,” so I won’t bother giving a synopsis of the original novel or the Universal Picture monster movie starring Claude Rains from 1933, but I will give a bit of context for this most recent incarnation: In 2017 Universal announced a shared “Dark Universe” to relaunch all of the classic Universal horror properties to modern audiences. The plans included the casting of Russell Crowe as Dr. Henry Jekyll/

Joshua B. Porter Democrat correspondent Mr. Edward Hyde, Javier Bardem as the Frankenstein Monster and Johnny Depp as The Invisible Man. Tom Cruise was also part of this strategy with his film “The Mummy,” which would be the first relaunch title out of the gate for the new banner. Unfortunately for Universal, 2017’s “The Mummy” would be a critical and box

office failure, causing Universal Studios to cancel all planned “Dark Universe” horror remakes. Enter Jason Blum (producer “Get Out”), who took on the “Invisible” property and gave it the treatment it needed. This included a significantly lower budget compared to other recent horror relaunch attempts. Made for a paltry (by today’s standards) $7 million, I can’t help but think that the filmmakers having their hands monetarily tied somehow allowed them to stretch their creativity and focus more on script, performance and mood. They certainly did more n

Life’s unexpected complications come to B Street Liz Liles-Brown News release

Street Theatre presents “Byhalia, Mississippi” by Evan Linder, opening Tuesday, March 3. Linder’s connection to B Street Theatre traces back to his professional history with core acting company member Tara Sissom. Both are founding members of Chicago’s The New Colony, where Linder remains the company’s co-artistic director. That connection brought Linder’s “5 Lesbians Eating A Quiche” to Sacramento in 2015 to great success. With “5 Lesbians,” Linder placed us in 1956 as judges in a quiche cooking contest at the Susan B. Anthony Society for the Sisters of Gertrude Stein. Linder’s “Byhalia, Mississippi” is set in the modern Deep South, specifically in the small town of Byhalia. Jim and Laurel are young, poor and pregnant. They are very much in love, despite the vehement disapproval of Laurel’s mom. Unfortunately, some unexpected news during the birth of their child sends their relationship into a tailspin of distrust, division and confusion. Jim and Laurel are no longer living in their comfortable little nest and are now under the scrutiny of Laurel’s mom, their friends and the community of Byhalia. Life is complicated and presents us with a variety of problems. It’s the universal human problems that Linder addresses in his uproarious and heartbreakingly raw play. “Byhalia, Mississippi” looks to find the will to be kind when life is at its messiest. The play will be directed by Jerry Montoya, who has been with the B Street Theatre for 17 years and is currently the executive producer. He has been a

Watch civilization rebuild a Bart Simpson-inspired culture Peter Mohrmann City Theatre ity Theatre at Sacramento City College continues its 2019-20 season with “Mr. Burns, a Post-Electric Play,” which is “downright brilliant,” according to The New York Times. This imaginative, dark comedy by Anne Washburn asks what will endure when the cataclysm arrives — when the grid fails, society crumbles and we’re faced with the task of rebuilding? The play features music composed by Michael Friedman and lyrics by Washburn. “Mr. Burns” will be directed by Christine Nicholson.

entertainment of a post-apocalyptic society, sincerely trying to hold onto its past (Act 2). Seventy-five years later these are the myths and legends from which new forms of performance are created (Act 3). A paean to live theater and the resilience of Bart Simpson through the ages, “Mr. Burns” is an animated exploration of how the pop culture of one era might evolve into the mythology of another. “Mr. Burns, A Post-Electric Play” received its world premiere at the Woolly Mammoth Theater Company in Washington, D.C., in May 2012 and had its New York City debut at Playwrights Horizons in August 2013 under the direction of Steve Cosson.

The play

The playwright

Washburn’s play propels the audience forward nearly a century, following a new civilization stumbling into its future. After the collapse of civilization a group of survivors share a campfire and begin to piece together the plot of “The Simpsons” episode “Cape Feare” entirely from memory (Act 1). Seven years later this and other snippets of pop culture (sitcom plots, commercials, jingles and pop songs) have become the live

Washburn’s plays include “Mr. Burns,” “10 out of 12,” “Antlia Pneumatica,” “A Devil At Noon,” “Apparition,” “The Communist Dracula Pageant,” “I Have Loved Strangers,” “The Ladies,” “The Internationalist,” “The Small,” “Little Bunny Foo Foo” and trans-adaptations of Euripides’ “Orestes and Iphigenia In Aulis.” Awards include a Whiting Award, a PEN/Laura Pels International Foundation Theater Award, an Alpert Award, the Guggenheim,

a NYFA Fellowship, a Time Warner Fellowship, Susan Smith Blackburn finalist and residencies at MacDowell and Yaddo. She is an associated artist with The Civilians, Clubbed Thumb, New Georges, Chochiqq and is an alumna of New Dramatists and 13P.

The composer John Friedman (1975–2017) was an American composer and lyricist. He was a founding associate artist of The Civilians. He received a 2007 Obie award for sustained excellence. His musical “Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson” opened on Broadway in October 2010. Besides “Mr. Burns,” Friedman wrote music and lyrics for “Saved,” “In the Bubble,” “The Brand New Kid,” “God’s Ear,” “The Blue Demon” and “This Beautiful City.” His music has also been heard at the New York Shakespeare Festival, New York Theatre Workshop, Roundabout Theatre Company, Second Stage, Soho Repertory Theater, Signature Theatre, Theater for a New Audience and The Acting Company. Regionally his work has been featured at Hartford Stage, The Humana Festival of New American Plays, ART, Berkeley Rep, Dallas n

Music, comedy bring Christ’s stories to life News release

Photo by Allen Schmeltz

Sutter Street Theatre gets spiritual with “Godspell,” opening Feb. 28 at the Folsom playhouse.

small group of people help Jesus Christ tell different parables by using a wide variety of games, storytelling techniques and a hefty dose of comic timing in “Godspell,” opening at Sutter Street Theatre Feb. 28. An eclectic blend of songs, ranging in style from pop to vaudeville, is employed as the story of Jesus’ life dances across the stage. Dissolving hauntingly into the Last Supper and the Crucifixion, Jesus’ messages of kindness, tolerance and love come vibrantly to life in this production directed and choreographed by Karl Johnson with musical direction by David Williams. “Godspell” was conceived and originally directed by John-Michael Tebelak with music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz. The Sutter Street Theatre cast members: Caiden Falco as John the Baptist/Judas, Cassie Hamilton as Anna Maria, Christine Irish as Lindsay, Jessica Kaufman as Morgan, Trace Landrum as Nick, Nicolette Latini as Celisse, Cole Pannell as George, Jake Salgado as Jesus, William Schmidt as Telly, Helen Ventura as Uzo and ensemble actors Joey deMontel, Claire Higgins and Emily Meyers. “Godspell” plays Feb. 28 through March 29 at 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays and 4 p.m. Sundays at Sutter Street Theatre, 717 Sutter St. in Folsom.

Immerse yourself in ‘The Raft’ at the Crocker Art Museum Karen Christian Crocker Art Museum

he Crocker Art Museum presents “Bill Viola: The Raft” — a large, powerfully affecting audio/video installation created as a commission for the 2004 Olympic games in Athens. This presentation is part of a national tour. Organized by the American Federation of Arts and Bill Viola Studio, “The Raft” depicts at lifesized scale a group of ordinary people casually standing together. Suddenly they are struck by strong blasts of water that rush in, overtake them and then, just as unexpectedly, recede. In the aftermath of the deluge the victims huddle together, seek protection and help those who have fallen. The viewer experiences the events in the work in an immersive setting, standing in a darkened room and surrounded by the roaring sounds of the water. The scene is meticulously captured in slow-motion and arouses a visceral experience of calamity and shared humanity, provoking a consideration of the range of responses to crisis. “I first saw this work a few years ago when it was shown at documenta 14, a major exhibition of contemporary art held every five years in Germany. The experience was powerful and I’m delighted to present the work at the Crocker so our visitors can be moved by the piece as I was,” said the Museum Director and CEO Lial A. Jones. “The Raft” suggests art historical references, including Théodore Géricault’s iconic, early 19th-century Romantic painting “The Raft of the Medusa,” a larger-than-life depiction of a group of people struggling to survive a ship wreck on a makeshift raft. Additionally, the ensemble’s arrangement across the video screen and labored movements are reminiscent of Classical GrecoRoman friezes. Viola has said in this world of unstable and often unseen powers, an attack can come at any time for seemingly no reason. For him it is important that everyone in “The Raft” survives, a statement of the resilience of humanity. Viola (b. 1951, Queens, NY) is a major figure in the development of video and installation art. For over four decades Viola has created video work, architectural video installations, sound environments, electronic music performances and works for television broadcast. He explores universal human experiences and is inspired by diverse spiritual traditions, including Christian

Among his numerous accolades, he has received a Getty Research Institute Fellowship, an honorary doctorate from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation Fellowship. Viola has exhibited widely, with solo exhibitions at the Museum of Modern Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art and the Grand Palais, Paris, and has represented the United States at the Venice Biennale.

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. 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 or visit this Internet Web site www.nationwideposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case 02019227.

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. 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) 758-8052 or visit this Internet Web site www.Xome. com, using the file number assigned to this case 19-59505. 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.

CONTRACTOR REGISTRATION: No contractor or subcontractor may bid on any public works project, be listed in a bid proposal for any public works project, or engage in the performance of any contract for public work unless registered with the Department of Industrial Relations pursuant to Labor Code sections 1725.5 and 1771.1. D I S A D VA N TA G E D BUSINESS ENTERPRISE (DBE) PARTICIPATION: For federal-aid projects, DBE requirements of Title 49 Part 26 of the Code of Federal Regulations (49 CFR 26) apply. Bidders are advised that, as required by federal law, the County of El Dorado has implemented Disadvantaged Business Enterprise requirements for Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBE). Comply with Section 2-1.12 and Section 5-1.13. Bidder will take all necessary affirmative steps to assure that minority firms, women’s business enterprises and labor surplus area firms are used when possible. The Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Contract goal is 14%. PREVAIlING WAGE REQUIREMENTS: Contractor’s attention is directed to the requirements of Division 2 Part 7, Chapter 1 of the California Labor Code, including but not limited to Sections 1773, 1773.1, 1773.2, 1773.6, and 1773.7. The general prevailing rate of wages in the county in which the Work is to be done has been determined by the Director of the California Department of Industrial Relations. Interested parties can obtain the current wage information by submitting their requests to the Department of Industrial Relations, Division of Labor Statistics and Research, PO Box 420603, San Francisco CA 94142-0603, Telephone (415) 703-4708 or by referring to the website at http:// www.dir.ca.gov/OPRL/PWD. The rates at the time of the bid advertisement date of a project will remain in effect for the life of the project in accordance with the California Code of Regulations, as modified and effective January 27, 1997. Copies of the general prevailing rate of wages in the county in which the Work is to be done are also on file at the Department of Transportation’s principal office, and are available upon request, and in case of projects involving federal funds, federal wage requirements as predetermined by the United States Secretary of Labor have been included in the Contract Documents. In the case of federally funded projects, where federal and state prevailing wage requirements apply, compliance with both is required. This Project is funded in whole or part by federal funds. Comply with Exhibit D of the Draft Agreement and the Copeland Act (18 U.S.C. 874 and 29 CFR Part 3), the Davis-Bacon Act (40 U.S.C.

276a to 276a-7 and 29 CFR Part 5), and the Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (40 U.S.C. 327-330 and 29 CFR Part 5). If there is a difference between the minimum wage rates predetermined by the Secretary of Labor and the general prevailing wage rates determined by the Director of the California Department of Industrial Relations for similar classifications of labor, Contractor and subcontractors must pay not less than the higher wage rate. The Department of Transportation will not accept lower State wage rates not specifically included in the Federal minimum wage determinations. This includes “helper” (or other classifications based on hours of experience) or any other classification not appearing in the Federal wage determinations. Where Federal wage determinations do not contain the State wage rate determination otherwise available for use by Contractor and subcontractors, Contractor and subcontractors must pay not less than the federal minimum wage rate which most closely approximates the duties of the employees in question. AWARD OF CONTRACT: Bids will be considered for award by the Board of Supervisors. The County of El Dorado reserves the right after opening bids to reject any or all bids, to waive any irregularity in a bid, or to make award to the lowest responsive, responsible Bidder and reject all other bids, as it may best serve the interests of the County. As a condition of award, the successful Bidder will be required to submit payment and performance bonds along with evidence of insurance prior to execution of the Agreement by the County. Failure to meet this requirement constitutes abandonment of the Bid by the Bidder and forfeiture of the Bidder’s security. Award will then be made to the next lowest, responsive, responsible Bidder. RETAINAGE FROM PAYMENTS: The Contractor may elect to receive one hundred percent (100%) of payments due under the Contract from time to time, without retention of any portion of the payment by the County, by depositing securities of equivalent value with the County in accordance with the provisions of Section 22300 of the Public Contract Code. Securities eligible for deposit hereunder are be limited to those listed in Section 16430 of the Government Code, or bank or savings and loan certificates of deposit.

Buttered

Continued from B3

with less on this one. I was struck at how terse the film is. It takes its time to build tension, allowing Moss to not only build character but the film to embrace its tone. The story — written by director Whannell — doesn’t have a lot in common with the H.G. Welles novel. That’s fine. We’ve seen it. What it does center around is an abusive ex that takes his own life and leaves his fortune to his girlfriend, who suspects his death was a hoax. What’s most impressive about this story is that it takes a 100-plus-year-old novel and makes it about something modern and relevant. Specifically, physical and emotional abuse

and trauma in the #MeToo era. An extremely effective take, but one that might be triggering for some viewers. If Universal Studios was smart they would put Bloomhouse in charge of more of the Universal monsters and earn the audience back with responsible budgets and good, well-thought-out screenplays. What a novel approach. Joshua B. Porter is a writer/director/producer. His most recent project, the music video “When You Know” by the band Sunny State, can now be streamed on Youtube.
