Large houseboats are being hauledoff New Melones Reservoir prior to the summer recreation season, another sign of the four-year drought's impact on the area.

He ran into Waldman, who was playing his banjo at the Sonora Farmers Market last summer. Pomeroy's father, also there, identified Waldman as the very man who delivered his son into the world 18 years ago in Sonora. "It's a strange coincidence," Pomeroy said. "It's cool." Waldman couldn't say he remembered

ties and our forests? If you say yes to any of these questions then Tuolumne Utilities District is asking for your support to make sure you and your neighbors can have water for these uses. TUD is asking the community for itssupport of a new study released by the State Water Resources Control Board regarding impacts torecreation at Pinecrest Lake relative to different water

elevations. In 2008, new regulations were put in place by the State toregulate the operation of Pinecrest Lake holding it to an unrealistic elevation on Labor Day without flexibility. The new regulations would have had serious water impacts to an estimated 44,000 Tuolumne County residents. TUD has been working to change the regulations and we are at a pivotal point in getting the regulationschanged for the betterment of existing county residents. The new study recently recognizes the need to balance the community water supply and the recreational value of Pinecrest Lake. As a resident of Tuolumne County,you may not be aware that our unique history plays a very important part of our existing water supply. Tuolumne Utilities District's most important watershed is the

water that comes from Pinecrest Lake. Pinecrest Lake now, formally called Strawberry Lake, was created by a dam built by the Tuolumne County WaterCompany in 1856. In 1916, the original dam was

Oh, and I promise I won't try to buy any explosives from those shady characters I hang out with or hide what I already have in a storage unit somewhere else. Sound like a good bargain? Well, in simple terms, it pretty much describes the framework the Obama administration has signed on to in order to persuadeIran togiveup its questtobuild nuclear weapons. The U.S. and our allies agree to lift economic sanctions, which have crippled the Iranian economy, in return forIran agreeing tohold back on making nuclear weapons for a while. They promise to convert facilities we know they have been using to enrich uranium and plutonium. They will even let us inspect some sites, though we know they have violated all previous agreements for open inspections. And we'll continue to turn a blind eye toward the mullahs' pervasive violations of human rights, especially those of women. President Obama seems to regard as a major achievement an agreement

Our allies don't trust us. Relations between the U.S. and Israel rarely have been worse, but we're not on all that great of terms with the UK or Germany, either.

Why should they, when the president repeatedlyhas failed to live up to promises, whether to stop Russian aggression in Ukraine or to keep the murderous Assad regime from killing Syrian civilians? I ndeed, the M i ddle E ast h a s descended into chaos. Iraq is plagued by ISIS and sectarian conflicts between Shia and Sunni Muslims.

Iran will get an immediate economic boost as we liftsanctions,

which will strengthen a regime that is already ascendant as a regional power. A stronger Iranian economy will make it easier for the ruling mullahs to promote terrorism around the world and to fight proxy wars in Yemen and elsewhere.

Debris burning is a common toolused to dispose of vegetation when creating and maintaining defensible space, T uolumne-Calaveras U n i t officials said Thursday. Fire season has not been declared. Nevertheless, Cal Fire recommends the following practices to minimize chances of an escaped debris fire: • Keep burn piles to manageable sizes and numbers. • Never leave any burn or

"Within the park, we don't have to do any permitting for wideloaders," Collum said. "If they did it there, they would have to get permits and pilot cars."

Collum said the removal of the houseboats priortothestartofthe summer season will likely hurt business at the marina, which has a full-service convenience store thatoffersfuel,food and supplies. "All of the boats being pulled right now are some of our good customers," he said. "A lot of people come up with their families and friends."

Each houseboat is roughly 40 to 60 feet in length, 15 feet wide and can weigh up to approximately 36,000 pounds, roughly the same weight as a medium-sized bulldozer. It costs each owner about $2,000 to haul out, transport and storetheir boats at the Angels Creek parking lot during the offseason. That price includes the cost of launching the boats when

She added that the three-year state grant is "seed" money to get the program up and rulllllilg.

The funding for adults will create many interventionprograms to provide counseling and treatment solutions to reduce recidivism rates. Tuolumne County Sheriff Jim Mele said therewillbe specialprograms toserve the needs of incarcerated veterans, who make up a total 75 percent of the Tuolumne County Jail population. About 45 percent of youth offenders in the Tuolumne County Probation Department struggle with mental health issues, Arnold said. The proposed grant funds will be usedto create a crisis center to house and treatjuvenilesbeforebehavioralproblems get out of control and they have to be removed from society, Arnold said. The BSCC released the grant proposal in mid-February. Both county agencies had a short time to convene and develop a strategy toassess and address the needs ofthe mentally ill in the county's judicial system, Arnold said.

There will be some good foul shooters at the Final Four. Several of them play for Wisconsin, which ranks 11th in the country at 76.4 percent. Unbeaten Kentucky is shootinga solid 72.5 percent, in stark contrast to some of coach John Calipari's previous teams. When Calipari was the coach at Memphis in 2008, he lost a gut-wrenching national title game to Kansas when his team went 12 of 19 at the line. In last season's championship game, Kentucky shot 13 of 24 against UConn. But that hasn't been a weakness for this year's Wild-

Almost $100 to watch Mayweather-Pacquiao LAS VEGAS (AP)Don't expect much change back &om a $100 bill to watch the Floyd Mayweather Jr.-Manny Pacquiao fight at home. The suggested retail pricefor the May 2 payper-view will be $89.95, the two cable networks broadcasting the fight said Thursday. Many, though, will end up paying $99.95 because of a surcharge for high definition tacked on by many cable and satellite providers. Like almost everything else about the fight, the pay-per-view price is a record for boxing. The previous highest was the $64.95/$74.95 charged for the 2013 fight between Mayweather and Canelo Alvarez. The welterweight title unification fight will be televised by HBO a nd Showtime, using a combination of a nnouncers. HBO's Jim Lampley will be the lead announcer, with Showtime's Al Bernstein serving as analyst.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Oakland Athletics left fielder Coco Crisp will have surgery on his right elbow and could miss up to two months. Crisp said before Thursday night's e xhibition game against San Francisco at AT&T Park that he will have the surgery on Friday to remove a bone chip and spurs. "I did it my first at-bat of spring," Crisp said. "It was just like a strained triceps, but I guess that might have done something else in there in the process." The A's did not announce

3 countries look into fishing slavery BENJINA, I n donesia (AP) — Officials from three countries are traveling to remote islands in eastern Indonesia to investigate how thousands of foreign fishermen were abused and forced into catching seafood that could end up in the United States, Europe and elsewhere. A week after The Associated Press published a story about slavery in the seafood industry — including video of men locked in a cage— delegations from Thailand and Indonesia visited the island village of Benjina. A government team &om Myanmar is also scheduled to visit the area next week to try to determine how many of itscitizens are stuck there and what can be done to bringthem home. The visits reflect how the problem stretchesacross several countries, and how

difilcult it has been to resolve. The migrant workers lured or even kidnapped into fishing are usually &om Myanmar, alsoknown as Burma, one of the poorest countries in the world, along with Cambodia, Laos and poor areas of Thailand. They are brought through Thailand to fishing boats in Indonesia, where many

say they are beaten, made to work long hours with little or no pay, and prevented from leaving. Their catch is then shipped back to Thailand, where it enters global markets.

experiencing all-time high approval ratings. But the overlooked cog in the Warriors' rise to elite is the architect: general manager Bob Myers. The only two players who were around when Myers took over three years ago were Stephen Curry and David Lee. The rest are products countless phone calls, uber competitiveness, his new-age philosophy on winning basketball. And after all the years of stressful decisions, maneuvering and angling, he's having ahard time comprehending the fruits of his labor. "It's hard to process because itspretty unexpected,"

Myers said of the Warriors' 61-13 record. "Looking at the number of wins and losses, it's not something we anticipated, not something we expected. I'm just trying to enjoy it for

swings and misses of being a general manager, Myers was the manager of the Mark Jackson fallout. He was the go-between on multiple levels, spending months trying to stomp out fires in thousanddollar shoes. He's come a long way as a G.M. And the Warriors have come a long way right along with him. "Growing up in this community and watching for 25 years makes you appreciate this success," Myers said. "I wasn't someone that grew up in another city, another team. This is all I know.... There is still a tiny bit of fan in me. When I go there, when I allow myself to go to that place, I think,'Wow.'" Myers is usually a mess watching Warriors games. He lives and dies with every play, agonizing over each mistake, feeling after each loss like he failed personally. It's worse

that he's so far away, tucked in a suite, helplessly forced to trustdecisions he made months ago. Over the years, he's had a lot to fret watching the Warriors. But this year, he's been able to relax a bit. He's still a stress bucket on game days. But this team takes away much of the angst. Myers said he doesn't want recognition like Curry and Kerr and Lacob. He gets his fulfillment watching his team &om the suite. It's enough to make even Myers breathe, watching all these pieces he put together click in a way he can't even explain. "I thought about how to better watch our games," Myers

said. "I'm just a competitive person, and that's how it's going to be. It does make watching games harder, but this team hasmade ita biteasier. This team has delivered."

2-hour, 7-minute classic on Thursday night. Looking for her eighth title at Key Biscayne, the top-seeded Williams meets 12thseeded Carla Suarez Navarro of Spain on Saturday. "I made so many errors and I was like 'Serena, just come to the net at this point, because that's the only thing that was working for me,"' Williams said."I'm just really happy to get through that. It was actually a really fun match and I was able to come out and play here tonight." Halep, the No. 3 seed from Romania, beat Williams 6-0, 6-2 last year during round-robin play at the WTA Finals. Williams returned the favor later in that tournament, 6-3, 6-0. They were to meet in the semifinals at Indian Wells last month, but a balky right knee forced Williams out of that matchup. The knee wasn't a problem in this one. Halep was, but as is usually the case, Williams found a way. She had

Down 3-0 early, he won 10 of the next 13 games and never looked back — spoiling Ferrer's 33rd birthday. "A very close match," Djokovic said. "I enjoyed it." Up 4-2 in the opening set but facing break point, Ferrer stabbed his racket out to snare a passing try by Djokovic, the resulting dropshot winner drawing raves from the crowd and even a racket-clap from Djokovic himself. It was one of the last hurrahs for Ferrer.

Djokovic got the break two points later, putting the opening set back on serve. Another break followed for a 6-5 lead, and Djokovic finished the 58-minute opening set off with a hold. It was the 31st time he's won a

first set at Key Biscayne. He's now 31-0 in those matches. Ferrer fought off a match pointand ended up breaking Djokovic to knot the second set at 5-5, then lost eight of the match's remaining 10 points. "Iexpected itto be avery physical match as it always is with David," Djokovic said. "He's one of the greatestcompetitorsoutthere."

NEW YORK (AP) — Two daysaftersetting theschool's career scoring record, Chason Randle made the goahead free throws with 3.4 seconds left in overtime, and the Cardinal edged Miami 66-64 on Thursday. Sheldon McClellan's double-pumping 3-point attempt that would have won it at the buzzer wasn't close. The Hurricanes had ralliedfrom a 13-point secondhalf deficit to force OT and led 64-61 with less than a minute left. But Randle twice got to the line, making four straightfoul shots for the victory. The senior finished with 25 points to earn most outstanding player honors. The experimental 30-second shot clock being used in the NIT proved critical after Randle's free throws pulled Stanford to 64-63 with 38.9 seconds leit. Under the regular 35-second clock, the Cardinal (24-13) probably would have needed to foul. Instead, they played defense, and Deandre Burnett missed a 3-point attempt that might have clinched it.

Practicing tough love is breaking mom's heart DEAR ANNIE: I have a 30-yearold son. "Brad" was the perfect child, loving and affectionate, until the age of 16. That's when I divorced my drug-addicted husband. I sheltered the children as much as I could &om what their father was doing. W hen I transferred Brad to a public school, he got involved in drugs, quit school, became verbally abusive, did a stint in jail and more. I remarried a wonderful man who showed Brad nothing but love. Any disciplining was done by me. When I foundout Brad was doing drugs at age 21, I kicked him out of the house. He abused steroids and who knows what else. He blames me for the way he is because I kicked

Several treatment options available to help with COPD DEAR DR. ROACH: I have been told that I have COPD. The lung doctor said that he's pleased wjth my X-ray and will see me next year. My concern is whether this will get worse. I'm scared to death. I have difEculty catching my breath. I quit smoking about four years ago. I know I can't repair the damage that has been done, but is there anythingI can do to keep this disease &om getting worse? — T.C. ANSWER: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in North America is due mostly to cigarette smoking, but cooking fires, asthma and other rare conditi ons also may predispose people to COPD. Lung function decreases with aging in all adults, but in people with COPD (emphysema, chronic bronchitis and some types of chronic asthma), the

TOdayin hiStOry Today is Good Friday, April 3, the 93rd day of 2015. There are 272 days left in the year. The Jewish holiday Passover begins at sunset. Today's Highlight in History: On April 3, 1865, Union forces occupied the Confederate capital of Richmond, Virginia. On thisdate: In 1860, the legendary Pony Express began carrying mail between St. Joseph, Missouri, and Sacramento, California. (The delivery system lasted only 18 months before giving way to the transcontinental telegraph.) In 1882, outlaw Jesse James was shot to death in St. Joseph, Missouri, by Robert Ford, a member of James' gang. In 1936, Bruno Hauptmann was electrocuted in Trenton, New Jersey, for the kidnapmurder of Charles Lindbergh Jr. In 1948, President Harry S. Truman signed the Marshall Plan, designed to help European allies rebuild after World War II and resist communism. In 1968, the day before he was assassinatedin Memphis, Tennessee, civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his famous "mountaintop" speech to a rally of striking sanitation workers. In 1974, deadly tornadoes began hitting wide parts of the South and Midwest before jumping across the border into Canada; more than 300 fatalities resulted from what became known as the Super Outbreak. In 1985, the landmark Hollywood Brown Derby restaurant closed after 56 years in business. In 1990, jazz singer Sarah Vaughan died in suburban Los Angeles at age 66. In 1995, former United Way of America President William Aramony was convicted in Alexandria, Virginia, of 25 counts of fraud, conspiracy and money laundering for stealing nearly $600,000 from the charity. (Aramony ended up serving six years of a seven-year prison sentence.)

South That is so true. 4 AKQ At the bridge table, after bidding, you must 7 A98 6 5 3 apply your mind to winning the requisite numW4 ber of tricks. In today's deal, South pushes into 4 K 54 six hearts. West leads the spade 10 to South's Dealer: South ace. How should declarer continue? Vulnerable: North-South In the auction, South's two-heart rebid was S outh W e s t N o r t h E a s t forcing, since North's two-over-one response 1+ Pass 24 Pass guaranteed a rebid. When South heard about 2 V Pass 4V Pass respectable heart support, he plunged into 4NT Pass 5V Pass Blackwood. He upgraded for his secondary 6V Pass Pa s s Pas s club fit. If trumps are 2-2, there will be no problems. Opening lead: 4 10 If they are 4-0, the contract has no chance. But what if they are 3-17 Then it looks as if declarer would need the club finesse to work. However, there is another possibility. South cashes his heart ace, plays a diamond to dummy's ace, ruffs a diamond in his hand, leads a heart to dummy's king (getting the bad news), and ruffs the last diamond. Then declarer plays off his other two spade winners. With his preparations complete, South exits with a trump, giving East the lead. Here, East has only clubs left in his hand, so must play away from his queen into dummy's ace-jack. Note, though, that if East still has a spade or diamond in his hand, declarer would ruff and take the club finesse.
