S OLi reCOnSi er iSC O COurSe We're unsure if this idea would fly, but maybe something the Tuolumne Utilities District could consider. It has to do with lake levels, futurewater suppliesand discgolfers. Tuolumne Utilities District, via the Pacific Gas and Electric Co., is requesting the state set a lower summertime lake-level requirement at

Pinecrest Reservoir to meet the current and future water needs of the county's 44,000 TUD customers. The lake level was established when reservoir owner PG&E relicensedits hydroelectricpower project on the Middle Fork Stanislaus River in 2009. Keeping the lake level at 5,608 feet above sea level until Labor Day was to ensure ideal recreational

opportunities on the popular lake, used by boaters, swimmers, anglers, campers, cabin owners, etc. Lowering the lake level, according to state officials, will not severely restrict these opportunities— especially if PG&E removes tree stumps and boulders from the swimming beach, allowing the popular shoreline to be pushed back farther. Yet, no matter how you parse it, lowering the lake will partially take

In fact,some ofthe golfers have offered to buy insurance and pay for the course's upkeep. We wonder if TUD can't broker some kind of deal with these disc golfers allowing them to set up a course along the future shoreline, and around a possible future water treatment plant TUD has also discussed building.

Convicts who don't deserve parole hearings Consider the criminal history of Bobby Beausoleil, 67, the latestfollower ofCharles Manson to come up for an

automatic parole hearing. Among the lesser-known members of the murderous so-called Manson "Family," Beausoleil was a Manson henchman who fled Los Angeles aRer the 1969 murders of musician Gary Hinman and movie stuntman Donald "Shorty" Shea. Caught near San Luis Obispo and jailed, he could not participate in the group's notorious slayings of actress Sharon Tate and grocer Leno LaBianca a few days later. Beausoleil was up for a routine, periodicparolehearing late this winter, with Gov. Jerry Brown yet to decide his fate. As it did with fellow Manson acolyte Bruce Davis last year, there was every likelihood the state Parole Board would order him releasedon the basis of advanced age and good behavior while in prison. The Manson cases raise the question of w hether some crimes aresufficiently

heinous to merit a special classification, one amount-

ing to locking them up and throwing away the key without ever holding parole hearings like those given Davis, Beausoleil and Manson himself every few years. The question takes on urgency because this will likely be thelasttime the fate of either Beausoleil or Davis will be decided by Brown, who will likely be the last California governor with any personalrecall of the hor-

STOCKTON — Authorities in Northern California say at least three people were killed and four people were wounded in anapparent drive-by shooting at a convenience store. Stockton police say a woman died Tuesday on a sidewalk outside the store and two men died at a hospital. Four others found inside the market were transported to hospitalsfor treatment. Their conditions were not immediately known early today. The Stockton Record reports that police are interviewing witnesses, some of whom said they heard up to 40 gunshots. Dozens of people gathered in the area after the shooting, and additional officers had to help control the crowd. Officials say the area is known for gang activity.

'All Right Now' writer Fraser dies TEMECULA — Andy Fraser, who co-wrote the rousing rock anthem "All Right Now" when he was the teenage bassistfor the British rock band Free, has died in California at age 62. Fraser had been living in the Southern California desert community of Temecula, where he died Monday, the Riverside County coroner said in a statement. The cause of death is not yet known and remains under investigation. The band's biggest hit by far was 1970's "All Right Now," which remains one of the defining hits of classic rock radio. Fraser also produced the track and plays a bass solo on it.

The Los Angeles Times

As millions of private employees lost their pension benefits in recent years,

government workers rested easy, believing that their promised retirements couldn't be touched. Now the safety of a government pension in California may be fading fast. Feeling the heat is the state's huge public pension fund, the California Public Employees' Retirement System, known as CalPERS. The fund spent millions of dollars to defend itself and public employee pensions in the bankruptcy cases of two California cities — only to lose the legal protec tions that ithad spent years building through legislation. The agency's most significant setback came in Stockton's bankruptcy case. The judgeapproved the city's recovery plan, including maintaining employees' pensions, but ruled that Stockton could

Sense, a nonprofit think tank. Rising pension costs are eating up money needed for things such as fire trucks and street repairs, Tatum said.

As the focus now shifts 400 miles south — to the city of San Bernardino's bankruptcycase — the pension fund faces a new legal challenge from two companies owed $50 million. The companies say it's illegal for the city to continue paying CalPERS to fund workers' pensions while they get nothing. 'This is significant," Tatum said. "It has put a chink in CalPERS' armor." San Bernardino could be the first city in California to consider cutting worker

pensions in a bankruptcy. Before Klein's ruling, San Bernardino officials repeatedly said they planned to keep paying CalPERS for worker pensions. They said they feared that employees would leave for other government jobs if they moved them to a less expensive retirement option.

Blue Shield exempt status revoked The Los Angeles Times

Authorities have revoked the tax-exempt status of nonprofit Blue Shield of California, potentially putting it on the hook for tens of millions of doll arsin state taxes each year. The move by the California Franchise Tax Board comes as the state's thirdlargest health insurer faces fresh criticism over its rate hikes, executive pay and $4.2 billion in financial reserves. The state quietly stripped the San Francisco insurer of its exemption from California income taxes in August. The company held that since its founding in 1939. A spokeswoman for the tax agency declined to comment on thereasons forrevocation. The highly unusual action comes aftera lengthy state audit that looked at the justification for Blue Shield's taxpayer subsidy. The insurer haspaid federaltaxes for years. Blue Shield said Tuesday that it' s protesting the deci-

Klein blasted CalPERS as "a bully" for weighing in on the proceeding to insist — wrongly — that the cityhad no choice but to pay workers their promised pensions. Karol Denniston, a public finance lawyer at Squire Patton Boggs, said Klein's ruling was"critical for every municipality in California." "Next time we see a Chapter 9 bankruptcy filing," she said, "pensions will be up for negotiation just like every other creditor."

The government took longer to turn over files when it provided any, said more regularly that it couldn't find documents, and refused a record number of times to turn over files quickly that might be especially newsworthy. It also acknowledged in nearly 1 in 3 cases that its initial decisions to withhold or censor records were improper under the law — but only when it was challenged.

Workplace death still under investigation

LAWSUIT Continued from Page Al lay out how proceeds will be used, the group says. The bond language referenced repairs and improvements to Sonora High School, renovating "outdated" restrooms and classrooms,repairing leaky roofsand deteriorating plumbing systems, and making health, safety and handicap-accessibility improvements.

District officials said the pool project fell in the last category, as well as calling it a classroom. The school's attorneys filed a motion called a demurrer just after the lawsuit was filed in October to challenge the suit's legitimacy, saying it should have been filed right after the bond passed. The merits of that motion were discussed in court in January in front of Judge James Boscoe, but he has not yet issued a ruling. The lawsuit has been delayed since then, pending his decision. The suit first fell to Judge Kate Segerstrom, a former Sonora Union High School District board member, who recused herself. The plaintiffs then asked that Judge Donald Segerstrom alsobe removed from the case,because he could have a personal interest. Tuesday's hearing was supposed to be acase-management hearing,during which attorneys update the judge on the progressoftheircases. "It doesn't make much sense to hold a case-management hearing when there's a demurrer," said CASBA's attorney CraigSherman, of San Diego, because it would change so much, including likely ending the lawsuit in its current jurisdiction. But if Boscoe rules in favor of the district on the motion, Sherman plans to appeal, he said. Tuesday's case-management hearing was rescheduled to March 27. Because of the lawsuit, the district has chosen to go ahead with only one of itsproposed Measure J projects for now — the renovation of the Humanities Building. The building has been gutted, and utility lines are being added throughout campus.

Boscoe could not be reached for comment.

DAMBACHER Continued from Page Al nickname from mispronouncing an immigrant mailman's name, was a star athlete at Sonora High School, where he lettered in football, basketball and baseball and was later inducted into the Sonora High Athletic Hall of Fame. He had been recruited to play football for Stanford University when World War II broke out. Dambacher promptly enlisted in the U.S. Marines, at 18 becoming the youngest first lieutenant in the branch at the time, according to his family. He also saw heavy combat in the Pacific Theater. He was in the first wave on Iwo

Jima and was also involved in combat on the islands of Kiska, Attu, Tarawa, Kwajalein, Eniwetok, Okinawa, Saipan and Tinian. Born under the strength of a sheriff during near lawless times, Dambacher became a young commander, then an early expert on the then-new technique of amphibious assault, according to his son, Gary Dambacher. The most nervous his father

ever was, was when he was called on tobriefa roomful of five-star generals, including James Doolittle — Gary was pretty sure — on the dos and don'ts of amphibious assault after one of his ships got stuck on a seawall. But neither he nor his regiment received any medals, be-

BOARD Continued from Page Al "This is an opportunity for Tuolumne County to seize the moment andhopefully make a goodcooperativewater plan for our future," said Deputy County Administrator Daniel Richardson. With global temperatures on the rise and NASA saying so-called megadroughts could hammer the western U.S. for decades to come, Tuolumne County leaders say t h at maintaining the status quo is no longer an option. "Pretty much the entire scientific community has agreed that we are in the throes of a changing climate picture, it is a reality, and it is most likely to exacerbateintothefuture," said District 5 Supervisor Karl Rodefer, chairman of the Tuolumne County Water Agency, which was resurrected by the board two years ago to begin looking into future

The investigation into the February workplace death of a Sonora man continues. Tanden Olsen, 34, of Sonora, was fatally injured in a workplace accident Feb. 2 next to the Mokelumne River in Amador County. Olsen died 16 days later at a hospital in Placer County. The circumstances ofhis death are being investigated by CalOSHA, said Paola Laverde /' :m of the state Department of Industrial Relations. Olsen was injured in an accidental fall, and the cause of his death was listed as traumatic brain injury, Placer County Chief Deputy Coroner Dennis Watt said Tuesday. According to Laverde, Olsen olsen familyI courtesy photo was at work Feb. 2 on the Amador Water Agency gravity supply line Tanden Olsen, 34, of Sonora, fishes with his son, Tommy. project on Pacific Gas & Electric Co. property near Tiger Creek.

They found him at the bottom of the embankment, Laverde said. A helicopter crew responded and flew Olsen to Sutter Roseville Medical Center in Roseville, where he died Feb. 18. Cal OSHA opened its investigation on Feb. 19, and the agency has up to six months to complete it, Laverde said. 'The incident did occur on PG&E property near our Tiger Creek facility," on the Amador County side of the Mokelumne River, Brandi Ehlers of PG&E said.

The water, granted to TUD under a long-term agreement with PG&E, is distributed to customers via a complicated network of wooden canals and open-airditches constructed by Gold Rush-era miners.

According to the Forest Service, an investigator interviewed Olsen in September 2013 about Emerald and theRim Fire,which burned more than 400 square miles between August and October that year. Olsen said Emerald called him Aug. 17 and asked Olsen to pick him up to go get Emerald's truck on Jawbone Ridge,near a trailhead close to the point of origin for the Rim Fire in the Clavey River watershed, according to a federal search warrant.

Olsen said Emerald initially told him Emerald caused a rock slide, which sparked the fire. Olsen told Emerald he didn't believe him.

supply concerns. Scientists predict that the change will be marked by prolongedperiods of drought mixed with sporadic periods of heavy precipitation in the Central Sierra. However, many water systems throughout the state were developed in the early 20th century and are illequipped to handle the more extreme weather cycles. Roughly one-third of the state's annual water supply is traditionally stored in the mountain snowpack, which was just 13 percentofaverage earlier this month. That could pose a problem when future precipitation will likely come more in the form of rain as opposed to snow because of the

Royce said he thinks the county should take an "aggressive approach" toward securing water rights and expanding storage by building more reservoirsor enlarging existing ones. eWe have a history of being losers in the water game," he said. "We drink out of the ditch, and I'm tired of it." Though other supervisors agreed with Royce that storage is a major issue, some expressed doubt that going afterwater rights is the best approach. ''What we're talking about dealing with is the emerging issues, and we don't know what those issues are right now," said District 4 Supervisor John Gray.

Prohibitions affecting commercial businesses include:"Restaurants and other food service establishments can only serve water to customers on request, and operators of hotelsand motels must provide guests with the option of choosing not to have towels and linens laundered daily and prominently display notice of this option." The decision was adopted unanimously by the State Water Resources Control Board and will take effect in about 45 days. Officials at the water board said it is the first time any state in the nation has im-

posed an emergency water conservation requirement on every local water agency within its borders. Allwater agenciesare required toreduce overall consumption by 20 percent over 2013. They are also required to either limit outdoor irrigation to twice per week, or implement alternative measures to ensure the mandatory cutback is met. Local agencies can fine anyone not following the regulations up to $500 per day, and the State Water Resources Control

Board can issue cease-and-desist orders to agencies that don't implement conservation measures. Agencies that don't follow the order can be fined up to $10,000 per day. Local water agencies also will be required to reportenforcement activity to the state, so the water board can track whether agenciesareenforcing theregulations.

DEAR ANNIE: I am a great-grandmother who leR an abusive husband in the 1960s. My children were sexually abused by him. We have all been in counseling. I have uncovered intergenerational abuse in both my family and my ex-husband's family. Domestic abuse has also been found in the homes of my children and grandchildren. I am presently doing all I can to protect the great-grandchildren. My exhusband is planning a trip to see the family, and I have warned all the parents not to leave their children alone with him and explained why. He may be 80, but he is still capable of offending. As loving grandparents, we must do all we can to protect the children. The healing is long-term.— BC CANADA DEAR CANADA: Your family seems tohave had some major issues with abuse that have persisted through the generations. We

are gladallofyou have had counseling. You also are wise to protect the great-grandchildren from your ex-husband, even though such information is often difficult to convey and believe. DEAR ANNK: Your answer to "Brokenhearted in Florida" was much too nice. I don't know what her circumstances were when she gave up her son, but to give up a child at age 4 is pretty harsh. Telling him he should have contactedher sooner isjust an excuse to avoidcontactand issocruelthatIcan't wrap my head around it.

Is this indicative of any major problems? I am a very healthy 64-year-old male, and this is annoying. It has been going on for most of my life. I wonder if a psychiatrist could help.

Today is Wednesday, March 18, the 77th day of 2015. There are 288 days left in the year. Today's Highlights in History: On March 18, 1965, the first spacewalk took place as Soviet cosmonaut Alexei Leonov went outside his Voskhod 2 capsule, secured by a tether. Farouk I, the former king of Egypt, died in exile in Rome. On this date: In 1925, the Tri-State Tornado struck southeastern Missouri, southern Illinois and southwestern Indiana, resulting in some 700 deaths. In 1937, some 300 people, mostly children, were killed in a gas explosion at a school in New London, Texas. In 1940, Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini met at the Brenner Pass, where the Italian dictator agreed to join Germany's war against France and Britain. In 1974, most of the Arab oil-producing nations ended their 5-monthold embargo against the United States that had been sparked by American support for Israel in the Yom Kippur War. In 1980, Frank Gotti, the 12-year-old youngest son of mobster John Gotti, was struck and killed by a car driven by John Favara, a neighbor in Queens, New York. (The following July, Favara vanished, the apparent wctim of a gang hit.) In 1990, thieves made off with 13 works of art from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston (the crime remains unsolved). In 1995, Spain's Princess Elena married a banker, Jaime de Marichalar y Saenz de Tejada, in Seville; it was Spain's first royal wedding in 89 years. (The couple separated in 2007, and later divorced.)

Adam Carolla, a comedian and actor, said, "I am not a good cue card reader." Successful bridge players understand cuebids and are good card readers. A cue-bid is a call in a suit bid naturally by an opponent, the cue-bidder having no desire to play in that suit. Exactly what a cue-bid means depends upon the situation. To start this week, we have been looking at replying to I AQ partner's takeout double. If the advancer (the 4 J 5 doubler's partner) has at least12 high-card points (or an excellent 11) and his hand is not Dealer: West suitable for no-trump, he should cue-bid the Vulnerable: North-South opener's suit — as South does in today's deal. S outh We s t No rt h Eas t This cue-bid is totally artificial, just pointPass showing. 21 Pass 2V Pass In answer, the doubler bids four-card suits up the bidding ladder — here, rebidding two hearts. Then South jumps to four spades to confirm a long suit but a minimum in high cards. (Yes, he can bid a forcing two spades, which North would raise to four spades.) Against four spades, West leads the heart ace: four, jack, three. West cashes the heart king: five, two, six. Then West continues with the heart 10. East, after ruffing away dummy's heart queen, shifts to a diamond. How should South read the cards from there? Based on West's opening bid, the diamond finesse stands no chance, but the club finesse is a certainty. Also, note that declarer needs the club finesse to win. So, he should take the trick with his diamond ace, draw trumps ending in hand, and run the club jack. The diamond queendisappears on dummy's third club.

NOTICE OF INTENT TO ADOPT A MITIGATED NEGATIVE DECLARATION (MND) FOR PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY'S (PG&E) PINECREST LAKE LEVEL MODIFICATION PROJECT (PROJECT) WITHIN THE SPRING GAP-STANISLAUS HYDROELECTRIC PROJECT, FEDERAL ENERGY REGULATORY COMMISSION PROJECT NO. 2130.

On December 16, 2011, PG&E filed a request with the State Water Resources Control Board (State Water Board) to modify the existing Clean Water Act Section 401 water quality certification (certification) condition pertaining to the minimum Pinecrest Lake level. Pinecrest Lake is part of PG&E's Spring Gap-Stanislaus Hydroelectric Project. Pinecrest Lake is located on the South Fork Stanislaus River in Tuolumne County, California. Prior to making a modification to the certification, the State Water Board must comply with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The State Water Board is the lead agency under CEQA. PG&E's Pinecrest Lake Level Modification Project (Project) proposes that PG&E be allowed to lower the surface elevation of Pinecrest Lake, until and including Labor Day each year from the current minimum elevation of 5,608 feet to a range of minimum elevations between 5,606 feet and 5,600 feet, depending on the water year type as defined in the existing certification. Other activities proposed with the Project include the removal of underwater boating hazards such as tree stumps and boulders to facilitate boating and other recreation activities at lower lake elevations, and modification of shoreline sediment to enhance the quality of shoreline based recreation at lower lake elevations.

Pavelec stopped 38 shots, and the Jets moved into a playoff spot in the Western Conference with a 5-2 victory over the San Jose Sharks on Tuesday night. It was Palevec's second straight win and his first consecutive starts since late November. Joe Pavelski scored twice and Joe Thornton assisted on both for the Sharks (34-28-8), who started a seven-game road trip. San Jose's Antti Niemi started his sixth straight game, but was replaced by Alex Stalock after allowing three goals on eight shots. Stalock made 12 saves. "We've got (Niemi's) back, and he has ours," Pavelski said. "He's bailed us out plenty of times, but as a group we've got to do more."

The team announced the deal on Tuesday. Pears spent the past five seasons in Buffalo and started all 16 games the past two years.

UCI tells Armstrongto drop Tour charity ride LONDON (AP) — The head of world cycling urged Lance Armstrong on Tuesday to abandon "disrespectful"plans to ride part of the Tour de France route a day before the professional peloton. The disgraced cyclist responded by insisting he was "honored and humbled" to be invited on the unofficial charity ride. Armstrong, a testicular cancer survivor, was approached to join the ride by a former English soccer player, who is trying to raise $L5 million for the fight against blood cancer. Although the U.S. AntiDoping Agency, which imposed a life ban &om cycling on Armstrong, has no objection to the plan, the International Cycling Union wants him to stay away from the sport. UCI President Brian Cookson warned that the sport's showpiece event in July risked being undermined by the appearance of Armstrong, who was stripped of his seven Tour titles fordopingon everyone ofhiswins &om 1999-2005. "It's an ill-advised plan ... it's disrespectful to the current riders in the peloton, it's disrespectful to the Tour de France," Cookson told The Associated Press on Tuesday.

offend York, who said Tuesday &om his office in Ohio that Borland was "a terrific 49er" who had obviously consulted with other experts and had put a great deal of thought into his choice. York has been una&aid to con&ont the NFL concussion issue himself, admitting that he wished the league had begun researching brain health decades ago. But recent rules changes and new safety protocols have had some effect. During the 2014 season, reportedconcussions in regular

tion on what it means for the game's future, as well as for reaction on Steinberg's theoriesabout the socio-economic shift in the game it might foreshadow, York paused to assemble a thoughtful reply. 'The players, the players' association, the clubs and the league all need to work together to make sure the game does become safer," York said."But not only do we need to make it safer, we need to make sure we provide information to the playersin suchawaythat they can understand the mitigation we are attempting, along with the risks of playing the game. That's the first part." And the second part? "Unlike some sports, the men who play pro football have come through a college environment," York said. "That doesn't mean all of them

have a degree. Some of them leave early. But a significant number of them who do leave, do go back and obtain their degrees. That gives them a path and opportunity to elevate their socio-economic status beyond andafterfootball." That's a fair point. The most important thing is to continue the discussion. The Borland choice is a marker, yes. But it was purely a personal decision. It's up to others to use Borland's choice as impetus as a way to advance the concussion debate a little farther down thefi eld. The NFL is rich and smart. The league surely is smart enough to understand that if it doesn't keep working seriously on this business, the business could one day be in serious trouble. The game already is.

RAIDERS Continued from PageCl from the game, I don't want to leave here." Richardson entered the NFL as one of the most heralded running backs in yearsafter a successfulcollege career at Alabama. Richardson is one of three backs since 1996 to go in the top three picks in the draft,joining No. 2 overall picks Reggie Bush in 2006 and Ronnie Brown in 2005. But after a somewhat promising rookie yearinCleveland when he rushed for950 yards and 11 touchdowns and caught 51 passes and another score while playing much of the season with broken ribs, Richardson has been sent away by teams in his next two seasons. Cleveland traded Richardson to Indianapolis after just two games in the 2013 season for a first roundpick Thought to be the final piece needed to solidify an ofFense

led by star quarterback Andrew Luck, Richardson never fit in with the Colts. 'The very first humbling experience I had was getting traded," he said. "I spent the whole year, just wondering, why in the world and how in the world did I get traded. Looking back at it, even if they said it was a business move, in my head, it's still some type of,'OK, you still got traded."' He averaged just 2.9 yards per carry with Indianapolis in the final 14 games of the 2013 season and was not much better last season when he ran for 519 yards, averaging 3.3 yards per carry. Richardson played just one snap in three playofF games last season and never touched theball. He was inactive for adivisional game against Denver and was suspendedforthe AFC championship game against New England because he didn't contact the team when his girlfriend had pregnancycomplications,and he missed m andatory functions.

That suspension voided his contract, the Colts arguei. Richanhon has filcd a grievance to recover $3 million in salary. "From the begiiuiing, trying to fit into their program, it was difFerent for me," he said. 'For me, it was more of me being an all-time blocker. There's nothing wrong with blocking, but I still want to be able to help the team in different types of ways. I don't look at it as a bad thing. I just think it was a bad marriage." The Raiders have been looking to upgrade a running game that was the least productive in the NFL last season. Richardson joins a backfield in Oakland that features Latavius Murray, who showed promiselast season by rushing for 424 yards on 82 carries in limited action, and free-agent acquisition Roy Helu. Neither of those players have been the featured back and Richardson believes he can earn the starting role after meeting with coach Jack Del Rio on Monday night.
