Danny Caudle has spent six months in Alaska in a yurt, three with a pregnant wife. So, he knows that Butte Fire victims can survive living in a cylindrical shaped tent, historically common among nomads in Mongolia. "These ar e de fi nitely homes, said Caudle, a partner with Nomad Shelter, Alaskan Yurts, based out of Homer, Alaska. "They' re insulated, have hardwood floors, can be hooked up to plumbing, can run electricity through it. They' re comfortable."

But he will not know when the next yurt will ship to Calaveras until enough funds are raised.

Our love-hate relationship with Valentine's Day Valentine's Day is upon us. And to think we are still recuperating from Groundhog Day.That'sFebruary foryou,agray month of no big flashy celebrations, at least not until President's Day. The busier many of us get, the less our demand for outside stimuli. But for those needing to set chronological coordinates, VaIentine's Day delivers. Valentine's Day, the event, evokes responses ranging from love to hate. It is often held in contempt by the ultra-sophisticated and the partner-less, which are two groups that can overlap. They dismiss the day asa merchandising hook for purveyors of chocolate, flowers or heart-shaped anything — and a shot-in-the-arm for restaurateurs on a (preferably) non-weekend night. (Is that so bad?) One reason to like Valentine's Day is that it's an occasion for which people get dressed up. One reason to dislike Valentine's Day is that only the women get dressed up. This is a generalization, I know, but go to a nice restaurant and observethe ladiesin sparklesand manicures and their male partners in un-pressed jeans, their shirts hanging out. The men's refusal to "make an effort" could be a power thing. But slob dressing may also reflect immaturity — or its mirror image, senility. A resident at an assisted living facility complained to me that she and the other women turn up for dinner carefully dressed and groomed, while many of the old men shuffle in looking like

burns. (The home has a rule forbidding pajamas in the dining room.) Some women may choose to forego the Valentine's Day indignities this Sunday and instead escape into the mannerly sanctuary of "Downton Abbey." It's not that all those men behave well. Some are monsters in white ties, one having abandoned abride atthe altar. But they dress according to high standards. If they didn' t, they'd never have gotten far enough with a lady to play the cad. And do note that the upper-class requirementsforformal dress and exquisite tailoring aren't all about putting on the dog. They are also about showing respect for those around them. In 2016, let us salute men of all generations who still have the class to wear at least a jacket to a romantic dinner. Those worried about not seeming hip, meanwhile, should be mindful of this: Dressing like a slob has become conformist, and he who resists may be in the vanguard of something beyond cool: "normcore." According to Urban Dictionary, normcore is "a post-ironic anti-fashion, 'purposely uncool' trend by hipsters in an attempt to pull away from the subculture (fashions) that were becoming commercialized and popular." In sum, "normcore is quickly becoming a legitimate fashion trend." That brings up an intriguing aspect of the modern Valentine's Day — that is, how many gay and lesbian couples faithfully observe the celebration and with great style. This may be an effort to feel part of a mainstream in which heterosexuality remains the norm. In any case, the gay community freshens up the tradition. Speaking of which, Hallmark, the KansasCity-based arbiterofgreeting card sentiments, has come up with a very diverse Valentine's Day video. It tells the love stories of, among others, a lesbian couple and an interracial one, holding back none of the mush. A Hallmark spokeswoman said the company received a few gripes about the spotbut most viewers reacted positively to it. What one can love about Valentine's Day is it can be as high- or low-impact as participants choose. It can be a night spent on the town or by candlelight at home, or it can be totally ignored. And by Feb. 15, it's over.

SOTHAT WORKED OUT WELL... GUEST COLUMN

Cruz vs. Rubio: End is near or best yet to come I have, since last September, written several times that I think the 2016 campaign comes down to a race between Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio. The loss in Iowa after leading in the 10 polls preceding the caucuses has taken the wind out of Donald Trump's sails. He is refusing to invest in New Hampshire and will not buy expansive data tomicro-target voters.

I suspect Christie, Bush, Kasich and Fiorina fade. Ben Carson is already fading. Despite Carson' s attacks on Ted Cruz over urging Carson supporters to stand with Cruz, the facts are that Ted Cruz's campaign relied on CNN reporting to tell Cruz's supporters that Ben Carson was getting off the campaign trail after Iowa. Carson's campaign has cut 50 staffers and is already announcing more cuts aRer New Hampshire. Carson will be out soon. He is using Ted Cruz as a way to stay on life support, but his campaign is over. Trump, as long as he stays in, is more an opportunist who will say and do anything to get elected. Trump was recently endorsed by former Senator Scott Brown, who won a special election in Massachusetts, lost re-election, then

Erick Erickson moved to New Hampshire to try to get back to the Senate. Trump has been hopping party to party since the '90s trying to get himself into power. The endorsement was fitting. The endorsement, like Sarah Palin's albatross around Trump's neck, will not save him. That leaves Cruz and Rubio as the last men standing. Both have substantial war chests and heavily funded super PACs to run ads and build ground game operations. Rubio continues to get endorsements from political leaders, but Cruz continues to pick up sizablesupportfrom people mad at political leaders. If voters feel like the 2016 election is the last election to save the American experiment, Ted Cruz really is their only option. If voters feel like things are coming to an end in this country without drastic action, they really do not have a choice between Rubio and Cruz. They have only Cruz. Cruz is the disruptive candidate. A voter

YOUR VIEWS Seeing pastpolitical 'dirty tricks' To the Editor: It was politics as usual during the Feb. 1 Iowa caucus. After Ben Carson was asked where he would go from Iowa, he said he home to Florida "for a change of clothes" before heading for Washington to speak at the National Prayer Breakfast, then continuing to New Hampshire.The media grabbed the comment and immediately published the assumption that it signaled Carson was leaving the race. Chris Moody, CNN's Senior Digital Reporter, tweeted: "Carson won't go to NH/ SC, but instead will head home to Florida for some R&R. He' ll be in DC Thursday for the National Prayer Breakfast." This tweet, sent at 4:43 p.m., was re-tweeted by Iowa

Congressman Steve King who had endorsed Cruz and was actively campaigning for him. At 5:20 p.m., just over an hour before the caucus began, King added his two cents in his own tweet: "Carson looks like he is out. Iowans need to know before they vote. Most will go to Cruz, I hope." That is all it took. Multiple reports indicate that Cruz caucus captains announced during their caucus that Carson was out of the race and encouraged his supporters to vote for Cruz.

who feels like the end is near without drastic action has to take the gamble on Cruz, who still has a good chance to win. Rubio, on the other hand, is the candidate for voters who think the bestdays are still ahead of us regardless of what happens in 2016. Democrats may fear Rubio as a candidate, but the base of the Democratic Party does not fear him like Ted Cruz. They think they could wait out Marco Rubio, even after eight years in power, and see few of their ad-

Carson decried the dirty tricks, but it was after the fact. The damage was done. The media has been no friend to Ben Carson. While Dr. Carson has consistently ranked in the top four in Iowa and nationally, his name is seldom mentioned. Has the media become so corrupt that there is no news anymore other than what they would like you to know? It comes down to the people. It will take people researching things for themselves and not taking everything told them on Fox News, CBS or another station as truth. Will people take the time to do that? I wonder.

goods here;often there aren't alternatives anymore aside from consumer abstinence. Global producers care less now about what we do here since the market outside the U.S. is on a long-term expanding growth curve. We hear all our campaigning politicos promising to solve the matter, no solutions offered. But I think I know what will be proposed:Stifftariffs (tax)on foreign goods and possibly at least a partial amnesty on parked capital coming back. Will global producers and U.S. consumers tolerate tariffs long enough for competitive U.S. domestic productivity to recover? A conundrum. A catch 22.

Katherine 'Totsy' Mae Ennis Nov. 26, 1929 —Feb. 5, 2016

Katherine "Totsy" Ennis passed away peacefully on Feb. 5, 2016, at her home in Sonora. She was born on Nov. 26, 1929, in Stent, the second daughter of Roy and Ruby Klein.

rni nma e mls a en reease Authorities do not plan to file additional charges LOS ANGELES (AP) — A murder suspect who was mistakenly released &om a Los Angeles County jail last month was recaptured Monday in ¹ vada, authorities said. Los Angeles County sheri6's detectives learned earlier in the day that Steven Lawrence Wright might be hiding in a Boulder City hotel and requested help &om the FBI and local police departments.

Wright, 37, was taken into custody without incident, the sherifF's department said. Authorities do not plan to file any additional charges against Wright, who will be held in Nevada pending an extradition hearing. "It's not like it's really an escape. It's our mistake," said Sgt. Tim Duerr,

a longtime investigator in the Major Crimes Bureau, which was tasked with finding Wright. Besides, he said, Wright already faces life in prison if convicted of the charges that put him behind bars. "Really, what's he going to get" with a new charge, Duerr said. "He's facing other charges more detrimental to him than anything we can do to him now." Duerr declined to detail what Wright had been up to the nine days he was a free man again. "I guess he had time to watch the Super Bowl," Duerr said. Investigators had been scrambling to recapture Wright since his release &om the Inmate Reception Center in Los Angeleson Jan.30 and had been notifying potential targets he might seek, interviewing those who know him best, and chasing down tips &om the public. Deputies didn't realize the mistake until more than 24 hours aRer the re-

lease, when they launched their manhunt. Wright had been behind bars since April 2011 following his arrest in the shooting death of a 47-year-old man that year in Pasadena. At the time, police said Wright belonged to the Altadena Blocc Crips, and the victim belonged to a rival gang. Wright had been found guilty of the killing in 2014 but his conviction was overturnedlastyearafterajudge found the trial wasn't fair. Wright was set for a preliminary hearing in a new trial next month, when he also was set to be sentenced for an attempted murder convic-

tion. A court clerka incorrectly wrote down the case number of Wright's murder chargenexttodetailsofhissentence,officials said. The clerk did write the correct information on the second page of Wright's paperwork, but three sherifFs stafF members missed it.

THIS Vf EEKEHD'S ISSUE

LOS ANGELES — Authorities have closed trails at Southern California's Mount Baldy following the death of the second hiker in less than a week. San Bernardino County sheri6's officials say 47-yearold Dong Xing Liu died Saturday after he slipped and fell in the Icehouse Saddle area. Liu's wife was also injured and hospitalized in unknown condition. Mount Baldy Fire Chief Graham Hendrickson tells the RiversidePress-Enterprise that a dozen people had to be airlifted Saturday &om the mountain, where icy and windy conditions have been common.

20i5 sets record for most shark attacks GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Experts say 2015 saw a recordsetting 98 unprovoked shark attacks worldwide, including 30 in Florida alone. The Florida Museum of Natural History released the numbers Monday. Scientists say the previous record was 88 attacks in 2000. International Shark Attack File curator George Burgess says attacksare expected to continue to increase as hu-

man populations grow and shark populations recover. Of the six fatalities last year, two happened ofF the Indian Ocean island of Reunion; the others occurred off Australia, Egypt, New Caledonia and the United States. The U.S. led the world with 59 attacks, including those in Florida, eight in each of the Carolinas and seven in Hawaii. California and Texas each had two attacks, and New York and Mississippi each had one. Australia and South Africa followed with 18 and 8attacks,respectively.

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — SaudiArabia'sofFerto send troops to fight Islamic State in Syria is as much about the kingdom's growing determination to flex its military might as it is about answering U.S. calls for more help from its allies in the Middle East. A Saudi deployment runs the potentially explosive risk of confrontation between one of the Arab world's most powerful militaries and forces keeping Syrian President Bashar Assad in power. That's if the Saudi proposal even gets translated into action. Just putting the offer on the table gives the Saudis an opportunity to show leadership in addressing U.S. concerns that its regional allies aren' t doing enough to fight IS. It also puts pressure on Washington to do more as Defense Secretary Ash Carter and allied defense ministers gather in Brussels this week for talks on confronting

Asiri says deployment contingent onsupport

— The Associated Press

military spokesman, made clear the kingdom's ofFer is contingent on the support of the U.S.-led coalition battling the militant group in Iraq and Syria. Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, which also has offered to deploy ground forces, are part of the coalition but have eased up on their contributions to the air campaign after earlier, high-profile sorties over Syria. In Washington, Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir implied Monday that his country's willingness to send special forces to Syria was contingent on the U.S. leading the ground effort. 'The coalition will operate the way it has operated in the past, as an international coalition, even when there is a ground-force contingent in Syria," alJubeir told reporters after meeting U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry. 'The U.S. is leading the international coalition against ISIS in Syria," he said, declining to discuss potential Saudi troop numbers, deployment dates or targets.

In Yemen, a Saudi-led coalition heavily supportedby the Emirates is battling Iranian-backed Shiite rebels and a former president's supporters who control the capital of Sanaa and other parts of the impoverished country. The Yemen intervention highlights Saudi Arabia's growing assertiveness since King Salman's ascension to the throne just over a year ago, along with the rise of his son, Prince Mohammed bin Salman. The 30-year-old prince was named by his father as defense minister and second-in-line to be king. Prince Mohammed has announced

The bloc includes much of the Sunni Arab world, several African and Asian countries, as well as NATO member Turkey.Not included are IS front lines Syria and Iraq, or Saudi Arabia's chief rival, Shiite powerhouse Iran.

ELECTION Continued from Page Al was elected to her first four-year term in 2012 after defeating incumbent Liz Bass in the November runoff. She chairs the county Natural Resources Committee and received the Fish Assembly District's Woman of the Year award in 2015. Chuck Kiel and Gerard "Jerry" Fuccillo have pulled papers to collect petition signatures ahead of the filing the period. Supervisor candidates must collect at least 1,593 signaturesfrom registered votersin the districts they' re running in to avoid paying a $398.14 filing fee. Kiel, a real estate broker in Sonora, describeshimself as a progressive Democrat on his campaign's Facebook page. In 2006, he ran for District 3, which covers most communities east of Sonora along the Highway 108 corridor.

Fuccillo ,whoisregistered asnoparty preference, retired in 2015 as the City of Sonora's chief engineer after 36 years. He promises in campaign materials to prioritize road improvement and road maintenance, public services and facilities if elected. Although supervisor offices are nonpartisan,allfive on the board are registered Republicans. A candidate for the board must win in the June election by a margin of 50 percent plus one to avoid a November runofK District 5 Supervisor Karl Rodefer and District 4 Supervisor John Gray are currently uncontested in their respective races, though elections officials said that could change by the filing deadline on March 11. Robbie Bergstrom, the county's election supervisor, said it's not uncommon to see a rush of candidates filing paperwork to run within the last few days before the March deadline. Bergstrom was hiredby the board last year to take over elections duties from Debi Bautista, who also serves as county clerk and auditor-controller. Supervisor candidates must collect between 20 to40 signatures from registered voters in the given district to be eligible, while city council candidates must collect between 20 to 30 from registered voters within the city limits. The candidates must also pay the filing fee by the deadline if they didn't use the in-lieu process. Those who do use the process can use thecollected signatures to count toward their nomination. Bergstrom said the elections office encourages candidates to file their paperwork as earlyas possiblebecause allsignatures must be verified. "We go through every single signature to make sure that they' re registered, live in the district and that their signatures match the one on their voter registration," he said. The three city council seats that will be up for election in June are held by Bill Canning, Connie Williams and Ron Steam. Steam has stated he likely won't run after 13consecutive four-year terms, possibly the longest run for a city council member in

Sonora, California

THEUNIONDEMOCRAT California history. No other candidates have pulled paperwork to begin collecting in-lieu signatures. There's no runoff in the council race, so the top-three vote getters in June will win a seat. Winners are typically sworn in at the council's first meeting in July. City Clerk Marijane Cassinetto's seat will also be on the line in the June election, though no candidates have pulled paperwork to begin collecting in-lieu signatures for that race either. Democrat Dr. Bob Derlet, of Sonora, has announced he will challenge incumbent U.S. Rep. Tom McClintock, R-Roseville, in California's Fourth Congressional District, which covers a wide swath of the Sierra foothills from Truckee south to Sequoia National Forest. According to Derlet's campaign website, he spenthis career asa professoratUniversity of California, Davis, and chief of emergency medicine at UC Davis Medical Center in Sacramento before moving to Tuolumne County five years ago. Derlet alsow orked forthree yearsasa primary care physician at the Me-Wuk Indian Health Center in Tuolumne, according to his website. McClintock is looking for his third consecutive win in the Republican-dominated district since it was redrawn in 2011 to include Tuolumne and Calaveras counties. A career politician, McClintock has previously served in both houses of the State Legislature and unsuccessfully ran for governor in 2003. He lives just outside the Fourth Congressional District in Elk Grove, as members

of U.S. Congress are not required to live in thedistrictthey represent. McClintock won reelection in 2014 with 60 percent of the vote against a member of his own party, military veteran Art Moore. The race gained national attention as one of a few intraparty battles created by California's primary system, in which the top-two vote getters regardless of party affiliation advance to the November election. Moore has not filed a statement of candidacy for the June election, according to the Federal Election Commission's website. McClintock holds a wide lead over Derlet in campaign fundraising to date, with a warchest of $323,766 as of his latest FEC campaign-finance filing that covers up to Dec. 31, 2015. Derlet's filings showed $6,440 cash on hand at the end of last year. In the state's Fifth Assembly District, incumbent Frank Bigelow, R-O'Neals, will be challenged by 27-year-old Democrat Kai Ellsworth, an Iraq War veteran currently attend-

ing college on the G.I. Bill. Bigelow was unopposed in the June 2014 primary and defeatedPatrick Hogan, a 21-year-old Libertarian part-time bookstore employee and college student, in the November 2014 election.

Among them is this comment from Columbia resident Cheryl Nelson: Box stores such as the Dollar General are athreat to the corridorof Columbia's Historic Preservation." People with strong views about the project have also swamped their elected representatives with emails and letters, District 2 Supervisor Randy Hanvelt said. "I tell ya, yeah, I' ve heard &om people," Hanvelt said Monday. "I' ve had some phone calls and a lot of letters. I' ve seen peoplein the street,all wanting to give me their opinion. But I have to go to that meeting with an open mind and listen to both sides and make a decision, and that' s what I' ll do. It's a tough thing to do, but that's the way it is."

Sounding off

that Cross Development has expressed aninterest in pur-

chasing. The company has already built two stores in Jamestown and Soulsbyville, with plans for another at Highway 132 and Las Moras Street in Don Pedro. Rodefer, who represents Columbia, said he accidentally signed a petition against the proposed store that he mistook for a sign-in sheet at

county supervisor.

an earlier town hall meeting.

'This happens, and it's a good thing," Hanvelt said. "Nothing makes me happier than people calling me telling me what they think because, I can't be everywhere. I can' t read people's minds." District 1 Supervisor Sherri Brennan said she, too, has received a lot of input from constituents on the Dollar General project in Columbia. "Emails, phone calls, letters, you know we' ve had a lot of people sharing their o pinions," Brennan s a i d Monday. "Tomorrow I anticipate we' ll have a fair number of peoplecome out to speak, to partic ipate in the process, and I encourage everyone to do that." Brennan said she's been hearing &om people about the proposed Dollar General in Columbia for the past couple months. 'There's been a higher level of engagementforthisproject than what I' ve experienced," said Brennan, who is in the fourth year of her first term as a county supervisor. District 3 Supervisor Evan Royce said he's heard from so m any people abouttheproject he can't keep count. "I lost track a long time ago," Royce said. "I' ve had people stopping me on the street,in the grocery store, gettingcoQee.It's on people's

When the petition was submitted to the Community Resources Agency and became public record, he was advised by county counsel to remove himself &om further discussions.

Royce is in his second term as a county supervisor. 'This is one of those ones thatgrabs people'sattention," Royce said. District 4 Supervisor John Gray and District 5 Supervisor Karl Rodefer have recused themselves from the special meeting. Due to what are billed as potential confiicts of interest, they won't be able to voteorotherwise take partin the decision-making process. Gray said his partner of 27 years isa real estate agent

Hanvelt said somebody asked him about the Dollar General project when he was at a Super Bowl party on Sunday. "Development in the Co- f or property o wners w i t h lumbia area always gets a lot land in the Groveland area

Previouscontroversies Considering the size of the proposed Dollar General store, a 9,100-square-foot retail building, there have been a significant number of comments from the public, Shane said.

But the Dollar General project is not the first proposalto ignite a firestorm of debate in Tuolumne County, said Shane, who has been with Tuolumne County more than 30 years. "In the past we' ve had projects that have been far more controversial," Shane said Monday. "The Jamestown mine proposed by Sonora Mining Corporation, it was approved, back in 1984, that is byfar probably the most controversial projectI'vedealt with since I' ve been here." In the 1970s, a large recreationalvehicle park proposed near Cedar Ridge also generated debate, Shane said. "The Mountain Springs Community Plan project was controversial in 2001," Shane said. "It was approved by the Board of Supervisors, then the developersasked itbe rescinded because there was a move to put it on the ballot by an opponent of the project. "The board did r escind theirapproval,they re-subm itted a reduced-size project, and the Board of Supervisors approved that in 2008," Shane said. "The planning commission spent 20 hours in a public hearing on that project in 2008." By comparison, the Dec. 16 public hearing for the Dollar General project in Columbia was four-and-a-half hours long, Shane said.

Fruity, fresh and tart, with a swift kick of ginger, this blackberry and pomegranatecocktailcould be a big crowdpleaser.It's a boxed wine pitcher recipe based solely on purchased ingredients. And ifyou already have a box of light, fruity or even sweet red wine, this is the recipe for you. Basing a cocktail on this style of wine assures a vibrant, deeply hued sangria-like flavor profile. This particular cocktail is simple to craft, but there is one catch: You must choose a high-quality ginger beer. Since there's so much used in this recipe, m ake it a good one (the spicier,the better)). Don't be tempted to settle for ginger ale, either; you' ll want that sharp bite of ginger to balance out the rich blackberry and pomegranate fruits.

Hot dip makes . a good fondue By NEALEY DOZIER Tribune Content Agency

This beer and cheddar dip is the culmination of many other recipes I' ve made over the years: beer cheese soup, stove top mac and cheese and nacho sauce. Yes, really, it's a comTribune contentAgency bination of all of the aforementioned recipes.

Serve pretzels, pretzel bread or crudites alongside the warm dip.

For the cocktail: 24 ounces fruity or even sweet p red wine (I used Bota Box Pinot Noir) TiibuneContent Agency 12 ounces citrus vodka (I used St. George California Citrus) 24 ouncespomegranate juice 3 ounces blackberry liqueur (I used Leopold Bros.) Ice 18 to 24 ounces ginger beer, to taste (I used Fever Tree) Fresh mixed berries, for skewers Fresh mixed berry ice cubes, for garnish In a large pitcher or punch bowl, combine the red wine, citrus vodka, pomegranate juice and blackberry liqueur. Stir until incorporated and chill in the refrigerator until you' re ready to enjoy. You can make this portion of the cocktail a day ahead and store it in the refrigerator; just give the mixture a good stir before serving. For the cocktail:When you' re ready to serve the cocktail, fill your pitcher or punch bowl with regular ice and the mixed berry ice cubes; then add the chilled cocktail mixture. Quickly top with the ginger beer, taste for balance, and give the mixture a gentle stir. Prep individual cocktail glasses with ice, add the finished cocktail and garnish with mixed berry skewers. Recipe notes: The Leopold Bros. Rocky Mountain blackberry liqueur is a favorite for me, and it really is the star here. It's one of the highest-scoring domestic liqueurs and is worth the splurge for a small bottle. You can order it online if you can't find it locally. If you can' t find blackberry liqueur, Chambord black raspberry liqueur is an excellent substitution. Jayme Hendersonis a contributor to TheKi tchn.corn, a nationally known blog

WEATHER WATCHERS NEEDED The Union Democrat has a dedicated team of volunteer weather watchers who keep track of high-low temperatures and precipitation. They call the newspaper with fresh numbers early every morning for that day's weather page, on the back of the sports section. The only pay is an annual gathering - sometimes a picnic hosted by the newspaper, sometimes dinner at an area restaurant - where they are honored and thanked. Necessary equipment, which the volunteers must provide themselves, are a thermometer that records the high and low temperatures of the day and a rain gauge. They must also submit snow depths and melt snow, when they get it, to include its water content with their precipitation. Volunteers are needed right now in, Tuolumne, Pinecrest and San Andreas. Anyone interested in becoming a volunteer may callPam Orebaugh 588-4546 or e-mail orebau h©uniondemocrat.corn

Bullied sister should limit contact with family

the same. I never talk trash about my

sisters. Actually, I speak very highly of them in front of and behind their backs. They do not return the favor. I' ve put up with the "little sister syndrome"fordecades and am quitetired of it. It's worse when they get their friends to gang up on me. At last year' 8 Christmas party, my sister's best friend Said I Was the "SCreW uPa Of the family

in front of everyone and not one person stood up for me. My sister's mother-inlaw snickered at some other nasty com-

ment someone made about me. I have decided to limit my contact with my siblings and avoid them al-

Annie's Mailbox together on holidays, since I become everyone's target. They don't think their actions are wrong or hurtful. I'm done with being the nice sister just to be thrown under the bus and run over repeatedly.They say I' m "toosensitive,"but if someone treated them this way, they would fall to pieces. I thought time and maturity would soften this behavior, but it' 8 just gotten worse. Any suggestions? — SISTER IN SITUATION DEAR SISTER: It's too bad your siblings haven't managed to grow up, butnot everyone does.This is the family dynamic they are accustomed to, and not even the deaths of five of you have altered it. Ten children is a lot, and in some families, kids feel the parents are ne-

glecting them in favor of a younger sibling. This could be how things began, but it no longer matters. You get to decide how to handle them now. Try talking to each sibling individually. Say that you love and value them, but you are tired of being mocked and hurt.Ask them to bemore aware of the way they treat you, so that your remaining years together can be happy and loving. Give them the opportunity to change. But if they are unwilling to work on this, it makes sense for you to see less of them. DEAR ANNIE: I think your response to "Confused and Tom" was perfect. She said her boyfriend thought she should put her 15-year-old Pomeranian, "Clover, "tosleepbecausethedogwasin constant pain and not likely to improve. I'vehad toputseveralpetstosleep becauseofold age and it's always a horrific decision to make. However, Clover'8 ownerisdoing agreatdisserviceto the

dog by insisting on keeping her alive when she's in 80 much agony. I would like to make a suggestion that may make the decision a little easier. She should have Clover cremated and indicate in her will that she would like Clover'8 ashes to be put in the coSn with her. In that way, the little dog will be with her forever. I will do this with my one remaining cat when the time comes and just the thought of it makes the burden a little lighter to bear. —INDIANA DEAR INDIANA: Thank you for writing.We hope 'Confused and Tom" will consider your advice for Clover's sake.

Studies back up use of statin meds for heart health DEAR DR. ROACH: You have made several claims about statins in your column. Could you please clarify the studies or data on which you are basing these statements? The idea that statins are the first line of heart health seems to be nearly universall y accepted among medical practitioners, to the point of being a mantra. However, I have had several direct requests for documentation go unanswered in spite of promises to provide them, by a couple of GPs, a cardiologist, a physician assistant and a nurse practitioner who were trying

Today in history Today is Shrove (preceding Ash Wednesday) Tuesday, Feb. 9, the 40th day of 2016. There are 326 days left in the year. Today's Highlight in History: On Feb. 9, 1943, the World War II battle of Guadalcanal in the southwest Pacific ended with an Allied victory over Japanese forces. On this date: In 1825, the House of Representatives elected John Quincy Adams president after no candidate received a majority of electoral votes. In 1861, Jefferson Davis was elected provisional president of the Confederate States of America at a congress held in Montgomery, Alabama. In 1870, the U.S. Weather Bureau was established. In 1942, the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff held its first formal meeting to coordinate military strategy during World War II. Daylightsaving "War Time" went into effect in the United States, with clocks turned one hour forward. In 1950, in a speech in Wheeling, West Virginia, Sen. Joseph McCarthy, R-Wis., charged the State Department was riddled with Communists. In 1971, a magnitude 6.6 earthquake in California's San Fernando Valley claimed 65 lives. The crew of Apollo 14 returned to Earth after man's third landing on the moon. In 1986, during its latest visit to the solar system, Halley's Comet came closest to the sun (its next return will be in 2061). In 2001, a U.S. Navy submarine, the USS Greeneville, collided with a Japanese fishing boat, the Ehime Maru (eh-hee-mee mah-roo), while surfacing off the Hawaiian coast, killing nine men and boys aboard the boat.

He was showing four-card support (getting to the nine-trick level with a nine-card fit) and less than game-invitational Opening lead:4 A values. With a stronger hand, he would have cue-bid three clubs. Here, South's raise to game was debatable. He was hoping dummy would be very short in clubs and that he could ruff his losers in that suit without East's being able to overruff. At trick two, West will cash the club king. What should East discard'? If he throws a discouraging diamond deuce, maybe West will find the heart shift, but it is doubtful. He is much more likely to lead a third club, hoping East can overruff the dummy. Here, though, South can ruff with dummy's spade eight, draw trumps, and claim an overtrick. Instead, East should signal boldly with the heart king — top of touching honors since he couldn't win the trick. Then it will be easy for West.

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.

CHEESE DIP I created this appetizer with all of those things in mind, using the best partsfrom each.Even better,it totally worked! The great thing about this dip is that you don't need an excuse to enjoy it. It' s the perfect winter snack. Technically, it's just America's version of fondue. And who doesn't like fondue?

Preheat oven to 400 F. Line two rimmed baking sheets with

to contribute one way or anoth-

er to the final score." 'Tm sure everyone tried their best, but I think we could have given a little more and then we would have that blue bannerhanging up in the gym right now," said Calaveras senior Austin Garant.

Garmt (182), along with sophomore John Kelley (195) and senior Shane Torre (220) collected three consecutive pins and Gabe Walters (106) won via forfeit to tie the bout before Escalon won the final match

for the win. "All of our guys were hungry for this and they gave their very best," Bowe said. They did all that they could and that' s all we could ask of them. I don' t think there was one guy out there who didn't try to leave it all out there to try to win that section title. We also have to take our hats off to Escalon." Darius Baza (132) got a 5-1 win and Tristan Madsen (152) were the only 'Skins to pick up non pin or forfeit victories. "I think we were just fiat and we wrestled like we don't know how to wrestle,"Torre said. 'They were pretty upset and we understand that and are glad they are upset," Bowe said. "We are glad that it matters to them. At the same time, we told them to keep their heads up. It's a single match, it's over now and we need to move forward. Some of those guys have been a part of this run for three years and they would have liked to run the table in their high schoolcareer,but that didn't happen." Heading into Saturday, the Reiskins had a feeling they would meet the Cougars in the finals. The two teams have met a number of times over the

past five years, so why would 2016 be any diQerent? "We scout a lot and I knew their lineup pretty well and who we would see in that final duel before it happened," Bowe said. "I thought Sonora had a shot at them, but Escalon stood strong against them. But we were ready for whatever came our way."

SEATTLE ( A P) When Marshawn Lynch was brought to Seattle early in the 2010 season, he was acquired because the Seahawks desperately needed a running back. What he ended up providing was an attitude and style that became the foundation for b ringing the first Super Bowl title to the Pacific Northwest. And for that, Lynch will foreverhold a specialplace with the Seahawks. He may have been more of a headacheoffthefield than anyone let on during his time in Seattle, but he' ll ultimately be lauded as the running back that got the Seahawks to a place they had never been before. Without saying a word — big surprise — Lynch drew a lot of attention during the fourth quarter of the Super Bowl on Sunday night with a single post on social media. Just a picture, green cleats hanging from a power or telephone line, and a peace sign emoji. It was his way of saying goodbye from football, a decision that his agent Doug Hendrickson confirmed to The Associated Press on Monday saying Lynch intends to retire. The mercurial running back who enjoyed avoiding media attention away from the field as much as he thrived under the spotlight with the ball in his hands is stepping away just before his 30th birthday.

V. Williams advances US team in FedCup K AILUA-KONA, H a waii (AP) — Venus Williams clinched victory for the U.S. Fed Cup team against Poland on Sunday in the Group II first round, advancing her team to the World Group Playoff in April. A win in April would put the U.S. in contention for the Fed Cup title next year. The draw for the playoffs is Tuesday. Williams needed just one hour to snatch a 6-1, 6-2 win against Poland's No. 2 player Magda Linette and record the 19th victory of her Fed Cup career. Bethanie Mattek-Sands and CoCo Vandeweghe teamed up and shot down Klaudia Jans-Ignacik and Paula Kania, 6-1, 7-5, to keep the U.S. undefeated in the tie. After the U.S. went up 4-0, the fourth singles match was not played. U.S. team captain Mary Joe Fernandez said the weekend's result was significant.

Cavaliers forward Kevin Love, who passed the 9,000 career point mark in the second quarter, returned after missing a game because of a bruised left thigh and scored 11 points. Irving converted a four-point play in the fourth quarter by hitting a 3-pointer in &ont of the Kings bench and being fouled by Rajon Rondo. Cleveland led 61-45 at halftime. Three baskets by James, including a 3-pointer, and five points by Irving early in the third helped stretch the lead to 78-57. The biggest margin was 24 points in the fourth quarter.

The Super Bowl grass made by West Coast Turf was installed last month. It's a hybrid Bermuda 419 over-seeied with perennial rye, and it was grown on plastic sheeting. The NFL used West Coast Turf sod for the first time since a few Super Bowls more than a decade ago. That's largely based on geography because West CoastoperatesoutofCalifornia's Central Valley in Livingston.

Will Osweiler step in as Peyton stepsout? SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — One of the biggest winners from the Super Bowl didn't even take a snap. Brock Osweiler is a free agent the Broncos probably can't afford to lose if Peyton Manning retires. And judging by how much the five-t™e NFL MVPs game has deteriorated through age and injury, a decision to do anything but leavepro footballas a champion would be foolhardy. Denver, of course, is well aware of the upcoming challenges behind center. Broncos boss John Elway probably already knows what Manning will do, and he might even be advising Manning to hang it up just the wayhe did in 1999 after a Super Bowl win. "I think he is probably just soaking it in," Elway said afier the 24-10 victory against Carolina on Sunday in which Manning struggled mightily, but still got a second ring. "I remember when I won it, it is always the time to just sit there. There is so much hard work and it is such a long season that to beable to win the world championship and exhale and say, t We are world champs' is a greatfeeling.Iam sure he is enjoying it now." All of the Broncos are enjoying it, of course. As coach Gary Kubiak said Monday morning, hewants to hold onto the championship feeling for a while before looking ahead. But look ahead Denver must.

DAHLBERG Continued from PageC1 would be hard to watch No. 18 take the fieldagain after a performance that exposed him as an aging quarterback hangingon for one fi nalm oment of glory. Manning wasn't terrible, but for a lot of the game he was simply awful. If not for a late giA from the Panthers, Denver would have gone the entire game without an offensive touchdown. Not that it mattered. Not with Von Miller and the rest of a Denver defense that Wade Phillips unleashed on the Panthers. They scored w hen M a nning couldn' t. They harassed Newton on every snap, hitting him 10 times and sacking him six times. They kept getting the ball back, even if Manning and the offense didn't seem to know what to do when they got it. They gave the Broncos their first Super Bowl win in 17 years despite the most anemic performance by an

offense of any of the 49 Super Bowl winners before them. "This game was like this season has been," Manning said. "It tested our toughness, our resilience and our unselfishness. It's only fitting it turned out that way. A great bunch of teammates, a great bunch of guys to play with. I feel very, very grateful." The tone for this one was set early when Miller hit Newton inside the 5-yard-line, then stripped the ball &om his arms for good measure. Defensive end Malik Jackson fell on it in the end zone and Denver had a 10-0 lead it would never give up. That playmight have never happened if the officials weren't having a bad night of their own. They couldn' t wait to toss flags when players jawed at each other, and they still can't figure out what a catch is as evidenced by the unsuccessful challenge two playsearlier of a catch by Jerricho Cotchery that wasn' t.

"It was a very good day," Johnny Avello, executive directorofthe sportsbook atW ynn Las Vegas, said Monday. "A defensive battle was something we were rooting for and fortunately,that's exactly what it was," added Jay Kornegay, the odds maker at the Westgate Las Vegas Superbook. A 5.5-point underdog at the casinos, Denver upset Carolina 24-10 — a total well below the over-underprojection of between 44 and 45. Newton was the overwhelming favorite to win this year's MVP, but he fai led to score and watched Denver linebacker Vonn Miller take the honor at 12-1 odds. Odds makers said gamblers bet heavily on the Panthers in the weeks ahead of the game. "But over the last few days, the pendulum swung in Denver's favor and really balanced a lot of things out," Kornegay said."Our best case scenario was for the Panthers to win the game, but not cover. So it wasn't a best-case, but as long as we stayed under the total, we were in good shape." The Nevada Gaming Control Board said in its preliminary estimate Monday that

The last time Nevada books lost money on the Super Bowl was 2008 when they paid out about $2.6 million more than they took in as the New York Giants beat New England, 1714. This year marked the first time Nevada sportsbooks could accept bets on the MVP. Traditionally, bets can be made only on things that happen during the game. But the Nevada Gaming Commission made the change after allowing bets on the Heisman Tro-

Mission accomplished. Carolina may have outgained Denver 315-194 yards, but Newton was never given a chance to get in a rhythm, never had an opportunity to break out into a

Dab. "It was nothing special that they did," Newton said in the most expansive of his brief postgame comments. "We dropped balls. We turned the ball over. We gave up sacks. We threw errant passes. That's it." That was about it, though there was incompetence aplenty from both offenses. Anyone who grew up scoring touchdowns playing Madden videogames probably turned this one off beforeColdplay and celebrit y guests trotted out for a halftime show that paid homage to shows of the past. The greatest passer in the history of the NFL struggled to complete the

"It was a very healthy handle on that, and Von Miller winning the MVP was a big winner for the public. Ten percent of all the tickets we wrote were on Von

called prop bets — things like will so-and-so score more than so-many touchdowns, or will therebe a safety,a2-pointconversion, or an overtime? The betting public tends to bet "more overs and more yes than no" on those questions, Kornegay said. "Cam not scoring a touch-

But it's hard to think that he would come back at the age of 40 to go through the rigors of another season. Not when he's now tied with brother Eli with two Super Bowl rings each. Not when his arm strength just isn't there. Yes, the game might have been ugly. But forManning and the Broncos the result was simply beautiful. Tim Dahlberg is a sports columnist

US slalom champion Mikaela Shifrin returns to World Cup racing next week By PAT GRAHAM The Associated Press

Two months ago, Mikaela Shif&in was just hoping to be back on skis before the snow melted. A week &om now, she will return to World Cup racing on a knee that healed much faster than even she anticipated. The Olympic and world slalom champion announced she will compete next Monday in CransMontana, Switzerland, for the first time since tearing a ligament in her right knee in December.

She said Monday on her Facebook page: "See ya in a week!" Originally, the American racer was targeting a March return for the World Cup finals in St. Moritz, Switzerland — if she could get backthisseason atall. "I'm a racer at heart," Shiffrin said through ski sponsor Atomic. "I belong in the starting gate." With only three slalom races left — along with a parallel event

this month in Stockholm that counts in the slalom standingsthe three-time defending champion still has a slim mathematical chance to retain her crown in the discipline. She trails slalom leader Frida Hansdotterof Sweden by 305 points. Shiffrin won two slaloms this season — both in Aspen, Colorado, and both by big marginsbefore a training mishap in Sweden two months ago interrupted her season. Her right ski slipped during a giant slalom practice run and then her knee buckled before hitting some grippy snow that caused her to hyperextend her knee and skid into the protective netting. She suffered a tom medial collateral ligament and bone bruise. "I never thought that I would have an injury because I have always worked as hard as I can to prevent injuries," said Shiffrin, who is &om Eagle-Vail, Colorado. "I rarely fall when Fm skiing. If

I'm scared in a situation, training or racing, I would tend to slow myself down before taking the risks and crash hard. "I am lucky that I hurt two of the things in my knee that can heal on their own really well. If I had hurt my ACL or meniscus and needed surgery, I think this would have been a lot more difficultform e." Shiffri n made her speed debut in Lake Louise, Alberta, this season and finished 15th during a super-G race won by teammate

Lindsey Vonn. Before her injury, Shiffrin and Vonn were considered the top contenders for the overall title, especially with Tina Maze taking the season off and defendingchamp Anna Fenninger sidelined with a knee injury. Now, it appears to be a contest between Vonn and Lara Gut. While away, Shiffrm said she watched every men's and women's World Cup race. "I would pretend that I was ski-

Shiffrin returned to snow in late January with some easy drills. Steadily, she ramped up her training and recently went through gates. "I had to keep my speeds really slow so I didn't put too much force through the joint," explained Shif&in, who will train in Colorado until later this week before fiying to Switzerland. "We just wanted to see how my knee responded to being on skis and snow before putting energy into the ski." She said she never really considered sitting out this season, even though that could have protected her starting position for 2016-17.
