ount must OC own new ai cos Last spring, Calaveras County unveiled its brand new $58 million jail in San Andreas, admitting the first inmates and replacing a smaller and aging facility nearby. Yet, a year later, the 160-bed lockup remains just about half full. It's not wanting for a lack of criminals — state Assembly Bill 109, signed by the governor in 2011 — made housing all kinds of unsavory characters and former prisoners the county's problem. What the jail lacks is staffing. To fill beds, the State Board of Corrections evaluates facilities and determines the staffing levels required. The
jail's 28 budgeted employees doesn't cut it. Sheriff Gary Kuntz says the county is now looking to possibly lease out space to a neighboring county — such as Amador. It's a tough sell, given that Calaveras County voters, in approving 2007's $30 million jail bond measure, Measure J, were voting to take local criminals off the county's own streets. "Sometimes you have to do what you do to survive," Kuntz said. This all may be instructive as Tuolumne County readies to build its own brand new jail off Old Wards Ferry Road — at a planned "Law and Justice Center" that will also house a new courthouse complex paid for by the state, and a 40-bed juvenile hall, also mostly paid for by the state (the county is covering part, but the upside is the county beingable to lease bed space to other counties). It's still unclear where Tuolumne County will get all the funding required to build its new jail, estimated to cost perhaps $42 million. County officials say they have lined up $22 million in state funding and expect to get another $13 million. The county itself expects to chip in the difference.

County administrators have already been chipping around the edges — asking its architects to revisit the plans and shave some costs, and offering to ditch planned kitchen and laundry facilities. The county would contract these out. But for the big money, county officials are looking at wringing substantial change out of the county's "general fund" — it's main operating budget). That, or the county could borrow against its self-funded workers' compensation fund. The former seems like a bad idea because it's that very operating budget the county will have to tap to staff its new jail. The latter also seems like a dicey proposition, since, if you' re hiring more law enforcement or corrections personnel (two injury-prone professions) your claims are bound to go up. Our advice to county officials: Learn from others. Look beyond just getting a new jail built and explain to taxpayers how much county funding will be used, the source of the funds and plans for staffing a new jail. We support a new jail, we just want to be smart about it.

Rip the electronic devices out of the students' grubby little fingers. Or 2. Choose to not give a fig what anybody says about her anatomy/age/hair color/sweater size. Having been on that receiving end any number of times, I'd advise 2. The more obscenity and general abuse fiourish online the less impact any of it should have. These days, even high schoolers need skin 10 feet thick. Yik Yak lets people post messages that anyone within a 1.5-mile radius can read. And because the authors don' t have to reveal their identity, they can say the crudest things without putting themselves at personal risk. It's apparently popular on college campuses.

House passes bill to end bulk phone record collection W ASHINGTON (AP ) — The House voted by a wide margin Wednesday to end the National Security Agency's bulk collection of Americans' phone records and replace it with a system to search the data held by telephone companies on a case-by-case basis. The 338-to-88 vote set the stage for a Senate showdown just weeks before the Patriot Act provisions authorizing the program are due to expire. If the House bill becomes law, it will represent one of the most significant changes stemming from the unauthorizeddisclosures of former NSA contractor Edward Snowden. But many Senate
Republicans don't like the measure,and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has introduced a separate
version that would keep the program asis.Yet,he also faces opposition from within his party and has said he is open to compromise. President Barack Obama supports the House legislation, known as the USA Freedom Act, which is in line with a proposal he made last March. The House passed a similar bill last year, but it failed in the Senate. Most House members would rather see the PatriotAct provisions expire altogether than re-authorize NSA bulk collection, said Rep. Adam Schiff, ranking Democrat on the intelligence committee. "I think the Senate is ultimately going to pass something like the USA Freedom Act," he said. The issue, which exploded into public view two years ago,has implications for the
2016 presidential contest, with Republican candidates staking out different positions. The revelation that the NSA had for years been secretly collecting all records of U.S. landline phone calls was among the most controversial disclosures by Snowden, a former NSA systems administrator who in 2013 leaked thousands of secret documents to journalists. The program collects the number called, along with the date, time and duration of call, but not the content or people's names. Itstoresthe information in an NSA database that a small number of analysts query for matches against the phone numbers of known terrorists abroad, hunting for domestic connectionstoplots.
UN: After 2nd quake, many in Nepalcutoffby blocked roads KATHMANDU, Nepal (AP) — Thousands of people fearing aRershocks continued to sleepoutdoors as authorities tried to reach survivors of Nepal's most recent earthquake cut off by blocked roads in isolated villages. There was a shortage of tarpaulin and tents in the Nepalese capital and elsewhere and people were even using cardboard boxes as their temporary shelter after this Himalayan nation suffered through its second major quake on Tuesday in less than three weeks. ''We have nowhere to go. This is our home for now. We had just moved back into our rented rooms and again the earthquakes are back," Raj Kumar, a carpenter who was sharing a small tent with two other families, said today.
A search also continued today for a U.S. Marine Corps helicopter carrying six Marines and two Nepalese soldiers. It went missing Tuesday while delivering aid in the country's northeast, U.S. officials said. There have been no indications it crashed. The magnitude-7.3 earthquake shook the impoverished country Tuesday, killing at least 91 people and injuring more than 2,300, just as it was beginning to rebuild from a devastating April 25 earthquake. "Ijust don'tfeelsafe anymore. Igetscared even when cars or trucks drive past us and the ground shakes. We are all terrified. Now I am afraid that we might all get sick staying out in the open space, cramped into these tents and not getting enough water," Srijana Sharma, a house wife, said in Kathmandu.

PINECREST Continued from Page Al " That wa t e r lea v es Pinecrest and goes into the South Fork Stanislaus River, then into the Philadelphia Canal to go to Spring Gap powerhouse," Ehlers said. "From there it goes into the Middle Fork Stanislaus to the Stanislaus powerhouse, and back into the river to get to New Melones." It was not clear Wednesday whether any water spilling at Pinecrestcan be diverted for use by Tuolumne Utilities District. TUD customers are under Stage III water-use restric tions that require conserving 30 percent compared with usage in 2013.
'Never seen it this full' Regardless of what was happening with the water flowing out of Pinecrest, people on the shore were happy Wednesday to see it 100 percent full and spilling. "I was here a month ago and it was nowhere near full," said Sonora resident Max Anderson, who walked around the lake to do time-lapse photography and video where the South Fork Stanislaus flows into Pinecrest. 'This burst of warm weather has melted snow higher up, and it looks like that's why it filled so quickly." Trisha Woods, of East So-

'We' re stoked' Sonora residents Wade Melcher and Autumn Fox walked the 3.9-mile loop aroundthe reservoir and lingered on the dam crest near the spillway. "We' re stoked how full it is right now," Melcher said. "The water is just screaming down here fi om the mountains."
Fox looked out over the expanse of the northwest corner of the reservoir. "It's so nice to see it topped out like this," she said. "Last winter when it was drained, that wasas low as I've ever seen it. I found Budweiser

Despite forecasts through late March and April that Pinecrest would not fiil and spill this year for the first time since the 1920s, the reservoir reached its 18,366 acrefoot capacity and began spilling Tuesday morning, Ehlers said.
aWe use forecastmodels to determine whether our reservoirs will fill and spill," Ehlers said. aWe were fore-
casting that Pinecrest would only get to about 75 percent capacity. Thanks to some latewinter, early spring storms that brought rain and snow, the reservoir did fill and spill. That's great because now we can create more hydropower for our customers." Pacific Gas & Electric, the largest utility in California, serves about 15 million people statewide. Lyons Reservoir is on curtailment orders issued April 27 by the State Water Resources Control Board, Lisa Westbrook with TUD said. That means water that flows into Lyons must be allowed to flow out, so PG&E will not be allowed to let Lyons fill. As of Wednesday, Lyons was holding about 4,800 acrefeet, more than 85 percent of its5,500 acre-footcapacity.

Now, noncompliant customers are still under threat of criminal charges, but would first see increased fines directly fiom CCWD. Customers who do not comply with Wednesday's orders will receive a written warning and 72 hours to comply. If caught again, they face increasing fines.

The board on Wednesday also declared a stateof emergency for the possible drainageofTulloch Reservoirasearly as Oct. 1. The Oakdaleand South San Joaquin irrigation districts, holding many Stanislaus River water rights, announced earlier this year that Tulloch Reservoir may be drained below CCWD's intake pumps to accommodate water needs during the drought.

Following public outcry, an agreement between water agencies put off the draining through Sept. 30. But that timeline still has CCWD scrambling to complete a project to extend its intake pumps by that time. CCWD provides water for about 2,500 customers in the Tulloch area and has no alternative water supply there, according to General Manager Dave Eggerton. Wednesday's declaration of emergency will help the district move quickly in financing the estimated $L6-million project, which isexpected to becovered allor mostly by the state. The project is urgent now because the pumps take up to six months to manufacture, according to Eggerton.

The Tuolumne County Behavioral Health Department will host its second annual Mental Health Awareness Celebration from 9 a.m. to noon Friday at the Enrichment Center (former Adult Day Health Care), 101 Hospital Road, Sonora. Karaoke will start at 9 a.m., and lunch will be served at11 a.m.
Question: W hat i s a PET/CT? Answer: PET/CT (Positron Emission Tomography/ Computed Tomography) is a state-of-the-art imaging tool most often used to assist physicians in staging and re-staging cancer patients, but also can be used in the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease,forcardiac perfusionimaging, cardiac viability and bone scanning. P ET/CT combines t h e anatomical benefits of a CT scan with the highly sensitive ability of the PET scan to detect changes in cellular activity. Combining the two into one imaging modality uses the bestqualities of each toincrease the overall sensitivity of the exam. A CT scan is a series of X-rays taken sequentially to produce images that resemble cross-secti ons of or-
Day-0 to donate Sunday proceeds The drive through Day-0 Espresso and Smoothies in downtown Sonora will donate 100 percent of its sales from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday to the family of Maranda Grider, 18, ofTwain Harte, who was seriously injured in a car accident on May 3 near Twain Harte. Owner Tony Benites Ill said the downtown Sonora hut usually donates its profits every Sunday to various charities. "We are a communitycompany and we try to give back as much as we can," Benites said. "She is a senior at Summerville High School. I have a lot of high school girls who work for us, they brought it to me." The money raised will benefit Grider's medical bills and her family, Benites said.
Hospital offers PET/CT imaging Sonora Regional Medical Center now offers PET/CT services five days a week. It recently bought a GE Discovery DST PET/CT machine. Positron Emission Tomography/ComputedTomography (PET/ CT) is an imaging tool used to help doctors stage and re-stage cancer patients (see related story, this page). PET/CT helps determine the best course of treatment after a patient has been diagnosed with cancer and is also used after chemotherapy or radiation to see if the cancer has responded to treatment, a hospital statement said. This technology will be an important component of the Medical Center's brand new cancer center slated for construction to start later this year.

Sunglasses cut the risk of sun damage to eyes By LACEY PETERSON The Union Democrat
Long summer days are here, and local eye doctors advise people to wear sunglasses with ultraviolet protection to reduce the risk of sun damage to the eyes and eyelids. Most people understand the link between ultraviolet (UV) radiation and skin cancer. Many are less aware of the connection between UV radiation and eye damage. Dr. Gerard Ardron, an opthamologist at Donaldson Eye Care in Sonora, suggests people do a few things to reduce the risk of short and long term damage to eyes — wear a hat with a bill or wide brim, wear sunblock, even on eyelids, and wear sunglasses that offer 100 percent UV protection. Sunglasses are a good cover-all, because they protect the eyelid and the eye, including lens and retina. Going out and getting "sunglasses from the gas station," won't do people any favors, if the glasses don' t offer adequate UV protection, Ardron said. Just having a dark lense doesn't do anything, explained ophthalmologist Dr. Robert Haymond, of Sierra Eye Center in Angels Camp. "Darkness has nothing to do with it, which most people don't know," Haymond said. "A clear lense can have full protection." These days, sunglasses with full UV protection are pretty affordable, unlike years ago, Haymond said.
In California, anytime a person is outside, it's a good ideato wear sunglasses, especially ifyou're on the water or in the snow, when there is more refiection, Haymond said. "If you' re in your car, you don't have to worry about it, because it doesn't get through the windows. If you' re wearing sunglasses in the car, it's just because it's bright," Haymond said. People should make it a habit to wear sunglasses, especially if they have blue eyes or a family history of macular degeneration, Ardron said. "It's the one thing you can do. Put it on and reduce your risk," Ardron said. Tuolumne County Public Health Officer Dr. Liza Ortiz agrees. "We just generally say wear them all of the time," Ortiz said. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, thereare increased levels ofU V radiation reaching the earth'ssurface because ofstratospheric ozone layer depletion, making it all the more important to take precautions to protect your eyes. UV radiation, whether from natural sunlight or artificial UV rays, can damage the eye, affecting surface tissues and internal structures, including the cornea and lens.
Longterm exposure to UV radiation can lead to cataracts, skin cancer around the eyelids, and other See SUNGLASSES / Page B2

CT images give sharp views of anatomical features and differentiatebetween types of soft tissue,bone and blood vessels. PET scans focus on the physiology of s t r uctures. They detect changes at the molecular level. In oncology studies we use a radioactive glucose, fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG), to track the high rate in which cancer cells metabolize glucose in the body. PET scans have the ability t o distinguish between scar tissue and active cancer and assist in detecting new and recurring cancers atthe earliest stage
so treatment can be made as soon as possible. It's the combination of the two types of imaging, each contributing dif f e rently, that make PET/CT so useful. For instance, a regular CT scan may show that a lymph node is a normal size but a PET scan might show that normal-sized lymph node is actually made up of cells that are behaving abnormally. The CT scan gives the radiologist the best possible anatomical image and location of the node, and the PET portion of the scan adds the cellular activity indicating that, despite the normal size, there is abnormal cellular activity. PET/CT is not an exam used as a screening toolto
diagnose cancer, but is used after a cancer diagnosis to help determine the exact sizeand location of the tumor(s), identify any metastatic disease that may be present and establish the bestcourse oftreatment for the patient. The test is also used following chemotherapy and/or radiation to check

WASHINGTON (AP) House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi predicted Wednesday that Republicans will "rue the day"ifthe Supreme Court buys their arguments and invalidates tax subsidies for millions of people under President Barack Obama's health care law. Republicans have said they will try to ensure people don' t lose insurance if the high court rulesthis summer against tax subsidiesfor health care coverage in certain states. But they haven't said how they would do it. Such a ruling would present a major challenge to the GOP. Without a congressional fix some 8 million people could lose subsidies, which help them pay for their health insurance.

'They' re now going to then go out and say we' re going to take subsidies away &om people who have health care?" Pelosi said in an interview with The Associated Press in her ofFice overlooking the Supreme Court. "No, I don't think so." The California Democrat, who was House speaker when the health bill became law in 2010 and was a major force behind its passage, insisted that the law was ironclad constitutionally and would not be over-
Nearly 8 million people could lose up to $24 billion a year in health insurance subsidies depending on the outcome of the Supreme Court case, King v. Burwell, which focuses on the literal wording of the complex law. Opponents say it only allows subsidies in states that set up their own insurance exchanges. Only 13 states and Washington, D.C., are running their own online insurance markets; otherstatesrely on federal marketplaces, and tax subsidies turned. in those marketplaces would "I don't think it's going to be threatenedifthe courtrules happen so it's no use speculat- against the administration. ing on what I don't think is goPelosi said she knew the law ing to happen.

plan. Q: How does PET/CT work? A: PET/CT is a very easy exam. When imaging for oncology, patients must fast for six hours. One hour before the images are taken, patients are injected with a very small amount of fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG). Patients then rest quietly while the FDG distributes throughout the body. When cancer cells are present, they will rapidly consume the FDG in higherproportion than other cells in the body. This allows the radiologist to identify the abnormal areas on the images. During th e e xam, patients lie on a flat surface that is moved into the scanner. The scanner is shaped like a donut with openings on each end. We make accommodations for comfort using blankets and pillows, and patients wear t h eir normal clothing. Although the entire exam takes about two hours, th e i m aging itself only takes approximately 25 m i nutes, and there are no special instructions following the exam. Q: What happens after a PET/CT? A: A specially trained radiologist will read the images and prepare a detailed report. Results are typically provided to the patient by theironcologist or other referring physician. Q: Does insurance cover PET/CT? A: There are some rules regarding how many PET/ CT scans a patient can receive and how far apart they must be spaced. They cannot be used for screening.

eye disorders, including macular degeneration. In the short term, excessive exposure to UV radiation from daily activities, including reflections off of snow, pavement and other surfaces, can burn the front surface of the eye, similar to a sunburn on the skin.
Although the eyelid is designed to protect the eye, its skin is very thin and contains fragile tissues that may be injured by UV light. Inside the eye, the lens and the cornea, both transparent, filter UV rays, but by doing so for many years, theymay become damaged.This is especially true for the lens, which through years of UV absorption, turns yellowish and cataractous.
According to the Environmental
Protection Agency, the cumulative effects of spending long hours in the sun without adequate eye protection can increase the likelihood of developing the following eye disorders: Cataract: A progressive clouding and yellowing of the crystalline lens, the eye's focusing mechanism. Atleast 10 percent of cataractcases are directly attributable to UV exposure. In the U.S. alone, more than 1 million operations to

sources like tanning beds. Pterygium: An abnormal, but usually non-cancerous, growth in the corner of the eye. It can grow over thecornea, partially blocking vision and may require surgical removal. This is more common in the Hispanic population, young people and in people who spend a lot of time outdoors, Haymond said. It looks like a piece of skin growing over the eye, Haymond said. Macular degeneration: I t is caused by damage to the retina over time. The retina is the ocular membrane where images are f ormed and transmitted to t h e brain; the macula, the region of sharpest vision near the center of the retina, is the most likely area to bedamaged. Macular degeneration is one of the major causes of vision loss in the U.S. for people over age 60. UV and blue light (shorter wavelength) contributes

Skin cancer around the eyelids: Basal cell carcinoma is the most common type of skin cancer to affect the eyelids, Ardron said. The second most common is squamous cell carcinoma, Ardron said. In most cases, lesions appear on
the lower lid, which receives the most sun exposures, but they can be anywhere on the eyelids, in the corners of the eye, under the eyebrows, and on adjacent areas of the face. Basal cell carcinomas make up about 90 percent and squamous cell carcinomas 5 percent or more of all eyelid cancers, while melanomas account for about 1-2 per-
cent, according to The Skin Cancer Foundation.
• Check the UV protection level — Sunglasses should provide more than 95 percent UV protection. • Check the lens tint — The lens tint should block 80 percent of transmissible light liight that can be transmitted through the lens), but no more than about 90 percent of light, or it will be hard for you to see. • Make sure your eyes are protected from all angles — Choose sunglasses that wrap all the way around the temples and/or wear a hat with a three-inch brim that can block the overhead sunlight. • Wear sunglasses over your contact lenses — People who wear contact lenses that offer UV protection should still wear sunglasses. Sunglasses help to prevent the drying effect most contact lens-wearers experience, which is caused by warm wind. • Buy sunglasses for your children — Consider buying sunglasses with UV protection for your children, and remember that the eyes of small infants should always be shaded from direct exposure to the sun.
Squamous cell carcinomas have a fastergrowth rate and a greater potentialto spread. Both of these types of cancer are found mainly in patients with a history of sun exposure. Melanoma can spread rapidly in the eye area and can provelethalifnottreated promptly. Melanomas have been linked to a history of intense, intermittent sun exposure and sunburns.

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 call Pam Orebaugh 588-4546 or e-mail orebau h@uniondemocrat.corn

"Monique" and I recently split thecostofahotelroom sowecould enjoyaweekend ofshoppingand relaxation. We experienced a few problems with the room, nothing major, but Monique complained to the manager and got a coupon for a free night on her next visit. I was excited until she told me she intended to use it with her husband because she's always wanted to go there with him. I didn't say anything to Monique, but why does this refund belong only to her? We' ve talked about returning to the place in a few months, and I think the coupon should be used for the two of us. I will find it really dif6cult to come back here with Monique if I can't get past this. Would you please explain why she feels this is hers when I paid for half of the room? I wouldn't care quite as much except that we always use my car and Moniqueonly paysforgasnow and

ways in which it can happen. You mentioned anesthesia: Several anesthetic agents, especially nitrous oxide, can cause temporary hearing loss, but nitrous oxide is not used as often during surgery as it once was. Changes in the fluid pressure in the ear also can causeboth temporary and permanent hearing loss. Finally, antibiotics given around the time of an operation can cause hearing loss. DEAR DR ROACH: I recently attended a hee introductory visit at my localhealth spa. It's an interesting process. There is a circuit with 12 machines and 12 mats for doing cardio.
The circuit is supposed to be done twiceat each session,three times per week. Can this really work to help you lose weight and get fit? Need I say, again, 30 seconds?

stamina would increase, and you' d likely feel better and have more energy. A 24-minute workout (24 stationsof30 seconds each,done twice) is enough (and a LOT better than no workout at all). Unfortunately, just doing the exercise will not make you lose much weight. Losing weight comes &om better dietary habits, which can help you eat less food and still feel satis6ed. The combination of increased exercise and a little less food, especially less low-quality (" junk" ) food, may help you lose a few pounds. Losing weight shouldn't be the goal, in my opinion. Iusing weight and keeping it off is tough to do, but by exercising regularly and eating well, you can dramatically improve overall health and well-being even without weight loss. DEAR DR.

some bubbles, but a large amount of bubbles in the urine could mean abnormal protein in the urine. In adults, protein in the urine ranges from benign to quite serious, depending on the cause. Nephrotic syndrome — the name given when protein output is very high, blood protein (albumin) is low and there is swelling (edema) in the body — is strongly associated with medical conditions such as diabetes mellitus and lupus. There are several kidney diseases that can cause large amounts of protein loss. Your regular doctor is the right place to start. A simple urine dipstick can show protein in the urine, but a 24-hour collection is the de6nitive way to measure protein output. A kidney specialist oft;en is consulted when there is unexplained large protein output.

Today in history Today is Thursday, May 14, the 134th day of 2015. There are 231 days left in the year. Today's Highlight in History: On May 14, 1955, representatives from eight Communist bloc countries, including the Soviet Union, signed the Warsaw Pact in Poland. (The Pact was dissolved in July 1991.) On this date: In 1796, English physician Edward Jenner inoculated 8-year-old James Phipps against smallpox by using cowpox matter. In 1804, the Lewis and Clark expedition to explore the Louisiana Territory as well as the Pacific Northwest left camp near present-day Hartford, Illinois. In 1900, the Olympic games opened in Paris as part of the 1900 World' s Fair. In 1913, the Rockefeller Foundation vvas founded in New York. In 1961, Freedom Riders were attacked by violent mobs in Anniston and Birmingham, Alabama. In 1973, the United States launched Skylab 1, its first manned space station. (Skylab 1 remained in orbit for six years before burning up during re-entry in 1979.) The National Right to Life Committee was incorporated. In 1988, 27 people, mostly teens, were killed when their church bus collided with a pickup truck going the wrong direction on a highway near Carrollton, Kentucky. (Truck driver Larry Mahoney served 9 1/2 years in prison for manslaughter.) In 1998, singer-actor Frank Sinatra died at a Los Angeles hospital at age 82. The hit sitcom "Seinfeld" aired its final episode after nine years on NBC.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction.

You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company,eitherofwhich may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

He completely lost sensation in
both his legs and was told he would never walk again. But he is now walking, at times with his little girl laughing beside him, because of a robotic exoskeleton called ReWalk.

QUESTIONS 8tATTITUDE Compelling questions ... and maybea few actualanswers
THINGS WE L AT KANSAS
SPEED FREAKS 3 questions we had to ask —ourselves
I AssociatedPress/CHUCK BURTON
A Johnson-Harvick duel for the championship: Inevitable?
Jimmie and Kevin, one-on-one, for a million bucks. Would you watch? Of course you would.
GODSPEAK: Looks like they' ll go into the Chase 1-2, but watch out for that knockout format. KEN'S CALL:As of now, yes. In case you haven' t noticed, momentum is only as strong as your next set of Goodyears.
All-Star race ••.ho-hum? Sad tosay, but yes, in a way. Way back when, race fans loved this thing because it was a shortened version of a race and they only had to pay attention for a little while before moving along with the party, whether at home or alongside Charlotte Motor Speedway in the Winnebago.
You up to speed on the All-Star race format?
And now?
Any surprise pick to win Friday's Sprint Showdown? GODSPEAK: Kasey Kahne. KEN'S CALL: No big surprise: Kyle Larson.
ONLINE EXTRAS news-journalonline. corn/nascar facebook.corn/ nascardaytona
Attention spans are so short, the all-star event actually has become a little drawn out, with all of its
WIHIIER!
GODSPEAK: No. They switch the format more than Lady Gaga changes costumes. KEN'S CALL: Let the Boys in the Booth sort it out as the rest of us just wait for the final 10-lap sprint.
segments and rather predictable finishes. It's time to think outside the pit box and come up with an idea that once again excites the weekly race fan and maybe gets the attention of the casual fan.
Such as ••.? Getty Images/JAMIE SQUIRE
Such as this: Everyone loves a bracket. So how about brackets, with head-to-head races with just two cars on the track, two or three laps each? Seed the brackets depending on points standings. Take it right down to the final four and finally the championship matchup. Best of all, no rolling starts. Every mini-race starts from a stand-still.
Jimmie Johnson, right, is No. 1 in the Chase standings after Kansas with three wins. But he can expect to battle Kevin Harvick all the way through the Chase playoffs.
1. Johnson/Harvick
2. Stewart's demise
3. Mighty Martin
JimmieJohnson has scored the most wins (three) this year, and Kevin Harvick has led the

finish in 11 starts this season. He has led only 14 laps and has three DNFs. Ouch. You got to figure his pressure valve is going to pop if this doesn't turn around fast.
It's safe to say after 10 top-10 finishes in 11 Cup races Martin Truex Jr. is the real deal and this is no statistical fluke. The only void on his performance chart is a win. He desperately wants that next win, which would be the third of his career and give Furniture Row Racing validation.

1. All-Star dud?
sr
DENNY HAMLIN
Will this Sprint All-Star Race be a dud or offer some excitement? When you haveto show clips of the '87 and '92 All-Star races to promote the event, maybe it's time to do away with it.
DENNY HAMLIN VS. DALEEARNHARDT JR.: "(Earnhardt) came up and ran me into
the No. 9 (Sam Homish Jr.) and we cut a tire," Hamlin said. GODWIN KELLY'STAKE: "Complaining about a Junior move is one thing. Taking action against Earnhardt is another story."
2. Boldly go The end of the race usually is boring, but in the first or second segments, look for somebody to be a hero and try to make an ill-advised pass that
results in negative consequences.

DID YOU KNOW? Every All-Star Race but one has been at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Darrell Waltrip won the inaugural at CMS in 1985. The next year, it was on Mother' s Day at Atlanta Motor Speedway. It went right back to Charlotte, where Dale Earnhardt made his infamous "pass in the grass" racing Bill Elliott for the lead.
