Man gets 45-year prison sentence for beating wife

Marge was born at the end of the "Great Depression," at home in Madera, California, to William and Mr Mamie Follis, on Au gust 9, 1931. Marge was their only child. Her parents' families had recently migrated to California from Oklahoma and Texas. She was preceded in death by her loving parents, a nd husband, Jack Louis Wilcox, w it h w h o m s h e shared 51 years of an adventurous marriage. Marge is survived by her tw o d a u ghters, Jackie Campidonica of Soulsbyville, and M argie "Jeanie" Soares and husband Jack of Le Grand. Four grandchildren, Teresa Gonzalez and husband Ray of Le Grand, Angie Norton and husband Philip of Soulsbyville, Matt Kelleher and wife Vanessa of Le Grand, and Lindsey Njirich and Fiance Bryan Beck of Sonora and thirteen great grandchildren. Marge was a kind, and generous person with a contagious smile and beautiful blue eyes. She was raised in the Madera and Oakhurst communities surrounded by numerous Great Uncles, Great Aunties and nineteen cousins. One of her fondest memories is while working at the Bass Lake Resort and stables as a teenager. When she and her husband Jack married in 1951 they settled in M endocino County where they began their family and eventually bought their first home in the small grape growing community of Redwood Valley. Marge worked in the Mendocino County Treasurer's Office in Ukiah before moving to Tuolumne County with her family in 1964. While living in Sonora she worked for many years for Safeway and eventually moved to Merced, California in 1974 where she and her husband formed an underground cable business called, Jacmar Communications Construction, and some years later formed, Jacmar Quarry in Jamestown. She enjoyed helping and visiting with tourist from around the world wh o stopped in tour buses daily to shop at her Merced family owned business called, The Fruit Barn. Marge and her husband Jack also owned a gold mining company for several years in Mariposa County, and each of their daughters, and grandchildren, received a gold nugget keepsake. Marge and Jack always owned a boat for water skiing and fishing, and with the help of Rick Njirich, and friends they built a houseboat that they enjoyed for many years on Lake McClure. They also enjoyed many road trips in their motorhome, especially to the northern California coast where they enjoyed visiting friends, eating lots of abalone, and pla~ g c ard games by a campfire. Most recently Marge enjoyed traveling with family to Alaska, Hawaii and Missouri. Marge was an avid gardener and enjoyed sewing, crocheting and quilting. Every member of her family has a quilt with a tag that reads, "Especially made for you by Nana." She had a life well lived, and always found the joy in all things. Her grandchildren and great grandchildren were her greatest joy and she was supportive, loving, and ever present in their lives. She was a beloved member of th e Le Grand Christian Bible Church with Pastor John Flanagan. A memorial service will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, May 30, 2015 at Ivers and Alcorn Funeral Home, located at 901 W Main Street in Merced. A "Celebration of Life," will be held immediately following the service at the Bella Luna Restaurant, located at 350 W Main Street in Merced.

Apparently, little plastic beads commonly used in cosmetic productsare rubbing a lot of people the wrong way. These so-called "microbeads" — found in everything from facialscrubs and soaps,to toothpaste — have been all but banned in a half-dozen states. Several California lawmakers want ours to be next in line. The problem with microbeads, critics say, is they end up in the sink, manage to pass mostly unmolested

up in the ocean (or the Great Lakes) where they are consumed by fish that think the tiny specks are plankton or algae. A half-million pounds of the nettlesome beads are washed into seas and lakes around the United States every year. They kill untold numbers of fish and other

creatures as a result.

A bill that recently passed the Assembly, AB 888, by Assemblyman Richard Bloom, D-Santa Monica, would prevent businesses or people from selling or offering for promotional purposes products containing the miniscule beads. The bill, called the Plastic Beads Nuisance Prevention Law, exempts products containing less than 1 part per million of the beads. Violatorsface fines up $2,500. The money would go to a fund to administer the law and to provide environmental cleanup grants. If passed and signed by the governor, it would become effective Jan. 1, 2020. A dozen Republican lawmakers, including our own Frank Bigelow, R-O'Neals, voted against the bill, passed May 22 by a vote of 59-12-9. He was joined by Travis Allen, R-Huntington Beach, Bill Brough, R-Dana Point, Rocky Chavez, R-Oceanside, Beth Gaines, R-Roseville, James Gallagher, R-Nicolaus, Shannon Grove, R-Bakersfield, Assemblyman Matthew Harper, R-Huntington Beach, Mare Steinorth, R-Rancho Cucamonga, Brian Jones, R-Santee, Jim Patterson, RFresno,and Donald Wagner, R-Irvine. Outside peer pressure, it's hard to understand why Bigelow would oppose what seems like a hardly harmful bill. Why favor a partial or full ban? Well,who, regardless of party affiliations, wants to swim in sea filled with plastic? Or, who thinks we should needlessly harm an already delicate coastal fishery for almost entirely superfluous reasons? The bead bill is hardly a radical idea. Similar laws have passed in Colorado, Illinois, Maine and New Jersey. There are verifiable and cost-efficient alternatives to the fish-choking synthetic nummies, also. They include agricultural products that grow plentifully in our assemblyman's district, like finely ground walnut hulls, and products derived from apricot and peach pits. Voting in favor of this bill would hardly have hurt Bigelow's district. If a bill is signed by Gov. Brown, it' ll actually, arguably, help the region's economy to a degree. Maybe, too, a yes vote would have shown a willingness to work with the opposite side of the political aisle on a subject that probably wouldn't land a GOP legislator on Grover Norquist's sacrificial altar. Too often, our lawmakers adhere to party lines (as appears to have been the case here — Bigelow's chief of staff didn't return a phone call for this piece). This insistence on being on the losing side of an argument just isolates our representatives, who, like it or not, belong to a super-minority party. We think it was a lost opportunity. But hopefully, one in which history needn't be repeated. Our Senator Tom Berryhill, R-Twain Harte, at some point this year will be faced with voting on a similar bill. Senate Bill 625, by Cathleen Galgiani, D-Stockton, is making its way through committee right now. A yes vote seems a moderate and justifiable position and, frankly, it's no skin off anyone's back in this district.

GUEST COLUMN

Burwell case to backfire on ACA foes? How many politicians, aides, lobbyists, lawyers, insurance moguls, professional groups and interns — both the political and medical kind — agonized over the details in the Affordable Care Act? The number is big. But despite thousands of hands in the kitchen, the final product included four words that cast doubt on a cornerstone ofthereforms — subsidiesforthosebuying coverage on federal health insurance exchanges. Unbelievable. Die-hard foes of the reforms have weaponized those words as a means to kill the law. They argue in the Supreme Court case King v. Burwell that specifically offering subsidies for plans bought on exchanges "established by the State" means no help for those going to federal exchanges. Since the program started, low- and middle-income Americans have been receivingtax credits for coverage on both types of exchanges. Almost everyone assumes that's how it's supposed to be. Take away subsidies for federal exchanges and only the sickly will join it. The economic structure underpinning guaranteedcoverage willcollapse as premiums charged for plans on federal exchanges soar and the healthy stay away in droves. The plaintiffs, though they come from the right, are doing their Republican colleagues no favor. You see, when the Affordable Care Act created federal exchanges in states that had not set up their own, leaders in Republican-con-

But get this: At the time of the bill' s writing, Snowe proposed letting Americans buy cheaper drugs from Canada. It was OK, apparently, for a foreign government to help struggling Mainers obtain health care but not for their own.

One expects the health reforms to survive this latest assault. The best outcome would be the Supreme Court's confirming that the words were a mistake and that yes, subsidies for the federal health exchange are legal. If the court says no, politicians in statesrelying on federal exchanges could swing into action and set up some form of state exchange. And the Obama administration would probably make it easy for them. The bipartisan takeaway here is the appalling state of American governance. We now hear from all sides that omission ofsubsidies for the federal exchanges was "sloppy," "careless," "inadvertent," "a drafting error. "Actually, it was inexcusable. But let's move on.

trolled states could noisily defy President Obama while taking few political risks. They could refuse to set up state exchanges knowing that their constituents would enjoy subsidized coverage on the federal exchanges. Lose those subsidies and Republican politicians are going to have a lot of angry people on their hands. Some 7.5 million Americans receive subsidies on federal exchanges. Hypocrisy now crashes over the Republicans' wall of opposition to the Affordable Care Act. Politicians are currently rewriting the storyof their obstruction of a law that they dread could come apart. An exasperating example is Olympia Snowe, a former senator from Maine who fancies herself a moderate Republican. During the battle for the bill's passage, she strung Obama along for months, pretending that she might provide him at least one Republican vote. (Why Obama indulged these stalling tactics ... perhaps his memoirs will tell.) Anyhow, Snowe recently commented thatthe little words at the heart of the Supreme Court case were unintended."Why would we have wanted to denypeople subsidies?" she said."It was nottheir fault if their state did

Iraq: Suicide attacks kill 17 troops

Davis makeswater, milk default for kids DAVIS — A Northern Californiacity says it's taking a stand against obesity, by making milk or water the default drink in kids' meals. The ordinance passed the Davis City Council unanimously Tuesday. It requires restaurants in

the college town west of Sacramento to include milk or water in kids' meals unless parents specifically request a soda for their child. The rule goes into effect Sept. 1. Advocates say studies show that parents will opt for the healthier option, ifpresented with a choice. They also say the ordinance is the first of its kind in the country.

Teen sentenced after starting wildfire SAN DIEGO — A judge on Wednesday ordered a 14-yearoldgirlto serve 400 hours of community service for causing one of the worst wildfires in San Diego County last year. The girl was sentenced in juvenile court. Her name was not being published because she is a minor. She was found guilty of multiple felony counts of arson and one misdemeanor count of unlawfully allowing a firetoescape control. Prosecutors argued during the two-week trial in March that the girl ignited branches in her backyard amid a spate of other wildfires in the county and laughed about it when she told her sister. Investigators said an ember travelednearly a halfmile and ignited a fire that destroyed more than three dozen homes and burned nearly 2,000 acres in what was called the Cocos Fire. The girl told investigators she "didn't want to kill anybody" — only to "see what would happen" when she set the first of two fires in her

Continued from Page Al parade four years ago. Hopkins and his wife, Anne, 81,moved toTuolumne County Irom Southern California in 1989, and shortly after settled in Twain Harte.

Hopkins has e xpanded their Twain H arte home &om 800 square-f eetto 2,600 square-feet — a space equally devoted to showing off classic car memorabilia and collected memories from his military career. His staircase is lined with photographs and medals that he has saved over the years. A framed cloth flag with the handwritten phrase "To Hell And Back" is hung at the bottom of the stairway. Hopkins said he took the flag ofF a dead Chinese soldier along with a 9mm pistol while serving in Korea. "That military life was a different life entirely," he said. "It wasn't a good life."

Impact Projectsfor Foothill Leadership Academy — something the new school plans to make an annual assignment. 'The vision of the school is to teach the kids to be leaders not just in their education, but in their lives going forward," said Emily McVey, Foothill Leadership Academy Founder. The school is a small K-8 charter school with an art-based curriculum aimed to highlight difFerent learning styles among students, according to McVey, who opened the school this fall with her husband, Evan. "I was walking around before everyone got here, and I was in tears," said McVey. "It was just an idea I put down in a charter petition and now it's real." The event was open to public, but primarily attended by parents and families interested in future enrollment at the school. Enrollment for 2015-16 is full for all grade levels except seventh grade at the academy. "It will never be a big school," said McVey, who wants to keep a small, family like atmosphere on the campus. "I feel like I have 108 kids — my three and everyone here," she said.

said he was in a fog, and never knew what would happen one day to the next. Recalling his experience in Korea today brings him to tears. "All of my buddies laying there dead — it's another life," he said. Eventually, Hopkins was rotated back to the United States and served at Camp Roberts in California, training drafteesfor about four months.

He spent a total of four years in the service, one year longer than he had originally signed up for. Hopkins reached the rank of Sergeant First Class. Some of his decorations include The Korean Ribbon with five Battle Stars and the Purple Heart with a c luster, two Bronze Stars, and Combat Infantry Badge.

The other life

p jla

The military life Hopkins was born in 1931 in St. Louis, where he lived until hewas 9 yearsold before moving to North Hollywood with his family. His mother died of stomach cancer in 1948. "I was still in high school. I sort of lost it," he said. "And I had to do something, so I joined the service." At 17, he enlisted in the Army. As a minor, Hopkins had to bring his father to sign os on his choice to join. Atter basic training, Hopkins learned he could earn an extra$50 to enlist as a paratrooper and train to jump from planes. He signed up for jump school and was transferred to FortBenning, Georgia. Hopkins had never flown before, and his first time on a plane was when he had to jump from it. "It was a little scary," said Hopkins. "I didn't know what I was getting into." Hopkins completed jump school and was assigned to the 11th Airborne Division at Fort Campbell, Kentucky. In September 1949, he was assigned to the mess hall and sent to cook and bakers school. The position was one Hopkins said he didn't like. "I wanted to get out the kitchen and go to the front

Hopkins was transferred to the 187th Regimental Combat Team — formed specifically to respond to the incidents in Korea. Today, Hopkins wears the regiment's small pin on his black Korean veteran base-

After being honorably discharged in 1952, Hopkins bounced between difierent jobs. It was during this time he and his wife decided to get married. The two had known each other prior to his enlistment and had both attended North Hollywood High School. The couple have two daughters, Sharon and Becky. After he and his wife retired, the couple sold their house and bought a fifthwheel trailer and a t r uck to travel the United States, ultimately coming to rest in Twain Harte.

CCWD Continued from Page Al Scott Ratterman said. "It makes totalsense to get back involved." Ratterman said that, at one time, the IRWMA board had to unanimously agree to approve projects, and CCWD did not like that. Director Terry Strange

said IRWMA runs difFerently now than it did in the past. "No project really is refused. What they do is they rate them," he said. ''We continue to hear ... that the state really favors the T-Stan group and its members." David Eggerton, CCWD general manager, added that itis a good time for CCWD to get i nvolved with IRWMA. "Being in th e governance level is going to help us," he added. The T u olumne-Stanislaus group has been approved for more than $12 million in state grant funds for localprojects since its inception, includ-

ing $200,000 for a CCWD projectto increase storage capacity of holding ponds at the district's Douglas Flat/Vallecito wastewater treatment plant. Looking ahead, the authority will apply for more funding for local projects under Proposition 1, a $7.5 billion water bond approved by California voterslastNovember. Additionally, the CCWD board will need to pay $9,961.20in annual membership dues for the 201516 fiscal year. The board also approved to renew its member dues to the Calaveras-Amador Mokelumne River Authority, another collaborative organization which con-

sists of six water agencies in Amador, Calaveras and Alpine counties. At a May 20 meeting, the authority's board approved a proposal asking to reinstate member dues from each of its member agencies. The funds are expected to be used to protectthe "area of origin" water rights of Mokelumne Riverwater agencies. CCWD's dues would be $13,854, or about 24 percent of the authority's $75,000 budget. Peter Martin, the district's water resources program manager, added that despite being an "annual due," this is a onetime budgetary expense for now. "They are not asking for this to be an annual due," he said. "Should they collect dues in the future, they would come before the board and ask for that action again." Ratterman expressed his thoughts on reinstating the dues. "This is a way of funding CAMRA to help with the legal, lobbyist bills that aregoing forward," he said. The authority will ultimatelyneed to approve the district's request. The next CCWD board meeting is scheduled for 9 a.m. June 10 at the Calaveras County Water District building, 120 Toma Court, San Andreas.

Quiz: Medical terminology Wescom Nervs Service

Medical terminology is famously indecipherable for those of us without the benefit of a medical school education. But it turns out that a little knowledge of linguistics can go a long way toward making sense of the myriad terms for body parts and their associated maladies. Many medical terms become a little more scrutable when you understand their prefixes and suffixes. Test your knowledge of medical prefixes and suffixes by identifying the correct definitions in this quiz.

Four faders for recovery The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration has outlined four major factors that support a life in recovery: Health — Overcoming or managing one's disease(s) or symptoms. For example, abstaining from use of alcohol, illicit drugs, and non-prescribed medications if one has an addiction problem. For everyone in recovery, making informed, healthy choices that support physical and emotional well-being. Home — Having a stable and safe place to live. Purpose — Conducting meaningful daily activities, such as a job, school, volunteerism, family caretaking or creative endeavors, and the independence, income, and resources to participate in society. Community — Having relationships and social networks that provide support, friendship, love, and hope. "Hope, the belief that these challenges and conditions can be overcome, is the foundation of recovery," according to SAMHSA.

It actually helps the brain grow, and the Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center has the MRIs to prove it. They scanned the brains

of 19 3- to 5-year-olds and found that t h ose children whose parents read to them often had much more active and developed areas of the brain where you comprehend language and create mental images. That development allows an easy transition from picturebooks to text-based books. It's we l l -documented that a young child's mental development increases the more parents talk to him or her. Kids need to hear words (not baby talk) and be spoken to directly from the very beginning of life. By 18 months, kids who are not spoken to very often are already falling behind in verbal skills. So talk to your children; read to them and make up stories together. And if you don't have a handy supply of kids' books, ask friends to share the books their children have outgrown; go online to www. magickeys. corn/ books for free books; and check out children's reading events at local bookstoresand libraries.

One morereason to be sour onthis sweet What do "The Waltons," "The Andy Griflith Show" and "Little House on the P rairie" have i n c o m mon? They pulled on your heartstrings, even if they were kinda sappy. In some things, a touch of corniness is welcome. But when it comes to your food, researchers at UC Davis and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Western Human Nutrition Research Center say that even a little high-fructose corn syrup should have you turning the channel (so to speak) and choosing HFCS-free foods. The scientists found that consuming a moderateamount of HFCS (equivalent to half a can of soda at breakfast, lunch and d inner) for two weeks can amp up lousy LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels while boosting your risk for cardiovascular disease. Eighty-five healthy volunteers were divided into three groups: One group got drinks sweetened with of HFCS, one with 17.5 percent and a third with 10 percent. The 25 percenters saw their LDL go up from 91 mg/dL to 107; the other H FCS-drinking gro u ps went from 93-95 to 102. (Healthy levels are below 100; forsome it' s around

70.) Unfortunately, in 2009, each North American ate more than 35 POUNDS of HFCS — now some say it's up to 66 pounds! And heart woes aren't the only problem researchers report that HFCS can trigger: Scientific articles say it leads to weight gain by inhibiting secretionof the "stop eating" hormone leptin and never shutting off the "feed me more" hormone ghrelin. So read ingredients labels on EVERY food you buy, and go with fruits and berries for your natural sweet treats. Mehmet Oz, M.D. is host of «The DnOz Show,"and

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 houniondemocrat.corn

I don't want to regret this decision forever. What do I do? —YOUR HAPPINESS OR HIS? DEAR HAPPINESS: As long as your fatheris capable of making this decision, please respect him enough to allow it. His brothers feel helpless, and that is why they are badgering you to put him in a nursinghome. We urge you tohave

cots have 1,000 ppm or more of sulfites.

Some people have reactions to sulfites. About 5 percent of people with asthma are sensitive to sulfites. The most common reactions are: skinrelated, such as a rash or itchy skin without a rash; gastrointestinal, such as diarrheaand abdominal cramping; and respiratory, including wheezing and cough. A very few people experience anaphylaxis, a life-threatening

To Your Good Health Keith Roach, M.D. reaction including collapse of the circulatory system that requires immediate attention.

If you haven't had any problems with your wine, you likely have no reaction to sulfites. If you have enjoyed dried fruits without problems, you almost certainly don't have sulfite sensitivity. If you did have a sulfite sensitivity, you would need to avoid sulfite-containing foods and look for organically grown wines without added sulfItes (even though some sulfites are naturally present in wine, they are at a low enough concentration that they may not cause problems). People with severe reactions to sulfites, like anaphylaxis, probably shouldn't have wine again, but that is a discussion to have individually with yourallergistorotherdoctor.

DEAR DR, ROACH: My husband is 80yearsold.He wasdiagnosed with prostate cancer 25 years ago and had radiation treatment. Five years later, he had radiation seed therapy. Five years after that, he started to develop bladder stones, which have to be removed by laser. Then he's sent home with a Foley bag. This has been an ongoing problem for the past five years, with stones every month or so. The pain is excruciating. What is the cause of these stones? How can he prevent them? Also, how long should a Foley bag stay in place? So many doctors have so few answers. — T.B. ANSWElt Stones in the bladder come &om the kidney through the ureter.Kidney stones affect 1in 11people in the United States, but I couldn't find any link between the radiation seeds and kidney stone formation. Stones are most commonly treated by laser when in the ureter (the tube that drains the kidney into the bladder). Once in the bladder, they can pass out of the body, unless they are quite large.

ROS Birthdayfor May 29.Communications flow with ease this year. Make and strengthen connections. Talk, broadcast and publish. Renew old ties. Have patience with someone close. Plan and strategize with a partner for a project after 6/14. Disciplined collaborations produce rich rewards. Bring it all home after 10/1 3. Community efforts gain momentum after 10/27. Harvest seeds planted earlier. To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging. Aries (March 21-April 19):Today is a 7 — It's not a good time to advance. Waiting is fine, as major changes develop. More work leads to more of a buffer. Inhibit fantasies. Put your fears aside, but don't show a loved one unfinished work. Apply paint sparingly. Taurus (April 20-May 20):Today is a 9 — Take advantage of the temporary confusion. Rely on someone you trust when controversy arises. Stick with the thing you have over a better-sounding fantasy. Wait to discuss upcoming expenditures. A female brings harmony. Soothe with delicious flavors. Gemini (May 21 June 20):Today is an 8 — Keep your objectives in mind, even in chaos. Watch for technical errors. Don't gamble with the rent. Avoid travel and traffic. Ask for help without complaining. Schedule carefully and confirm before leaving. A magnetic attraction pulls. It could get romantic. Cancer (June 21 July 22):Today is a 7 — Find what you need nearby. Peace and quiet suits you fine. Respond to new information after careful appraisal. Postpone expansion. Work and travel clash. Put in corrections. Avoid stepping on someone's toes. Relax and take it easy. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22):Today is an 8 — Pay attention to family finances. File and keep accounts current. Avoid arguing about money. Stick to facts. Someone seems grumpy. Investigate the numbers and find ways to save. Profits could be higher than expected. Stick to practical priorities.

I wrestled for four years under his coaching. We later found out he had been chewing gum and it got stuckiii his windpipe, and that's what killed him.

Sulfites can pose a problem for some people DEAR DR ROACH:I am 73 years old, and I consume a glass or two of merlot wine with dinner each day. What, if any, problem exists with sulfites present in this wine? — H.D. ANSWER: Sulfites are used as preservatives in many foods, including most wines. A dry red wine like merlot typically has about 50 ppm (parts per million) sulfItes, which is about the limit of detection for people with sensitive noses. Some wines can contain as much as 350 ppm. White wines and sweeter wines tend to have higher sulfite concentrati ons.In contrast,therearefoods with much higher sulfite concentrations. For example, certain dried apri-

Letting father make life decision a kindness DEAR ANNIE: My father was in prison for my entire childhood. I am now 23and have managed to build a good relationship with him since he was released two years ago. Recently, Dad became very ill and stopped breathing. He was on life support for a week. Because I am his closest relative, I am in charge ofhis health care. I was told the damage was too severe and he would never recover. They expect him to die within weeks. When Dad woke up, I was given the option of making him "comfortable" with medicine that would eventually stop his breathing. I want Dad to be happy in his last days, so I asked him what he wanted. He said he wanted to live with me, so I brought him home, and he is in hospice care. Now his brothers are furious that I didn't put him in a nursing home. They think he would get rehab there and be able to live a normal life again.

Today in history Today is Thursday, May 28, the 148th day of 2015. There are 217 days left in the year. Today's Highlight in History: On May 28, 1945, the novel "Brideshead Revisited" byEvelyn Waugh was published in London by Chapman & Hall. On this date: In 1533, the Archbishop of Canterbury, Thomas Cranmer, declared the marriage of England's King Henry Vill to Anne Boleyn valid. In 1937, President Franklin D. Roosevelt pushed a button in Washington signaling that vehicular traffic could begin crossing the just-opened Golden Gate Bridge in California. Neville Chamberlain became prime minister of Britain. In 1959, the U.S. Army launched Able, a rhesus monkey, and Baker, a squirrel monkey, aboard a Jupiter missile for a suborbital flight which both primates survived. In 1961, Amnesty International had its beginnings with the publication of an article in the British newspaper The Observer, "The Forgotten Prisoners." In 1977, 165 people were killed when fire raced through the Beverly Hills Supper Club in Southgate, Kentucky. In 1985, David Jacobsen, director of the American University Hospital in Beirut, Lebanon, was abducted by pro-Iranian kidnappers (he was freed 17 months later). In 1998, comic actor Phil Hartman of "Saturday Night Live" and "NewsRadio" fame vvas shot to death at his home in Encino, California, by his wife, Brynn, who then killed herself.

BIQls Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):Today is a 9 — You have what others want. Don't be hasty. Keep your credit cards locked up. Consider your presentation. Present your argument tactfully. Don't base plans on fantasies. Stick to practical priorities. Help a creative person focus. Take care of your friends. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22):Today is a 9 — A disruption at work could getexpensive.Checkforchanges and avoid cost overruns. Admit your limitations. Follow through on your promises, without frills. Take pictures of the situation for proof. They could come in handy later. Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):Today is a 7 — Chaos and distractions swirl today. It could get expensive. Wait for a better time for travel, romance or financial bargaining. Take it easy. Reconfirm appointments and meetings. Call if you' ll be late. Rest and let your mind wander. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):Today is a 7 — Exert just enough force to get a job done. Do the minimum and avoid wasting efforts. Restraint serves you well. Guard against overeating or overspending. Conflict and arguments arise if you let them. Take things slow today. Capricorn (Dec. 22 Jan. 19):Today is an 8 — A new contraption isn't reliable. Temporary setbacks and delays could plague travels. Allow extra time for the unforeseen today. Proceed cautiously to avoid costly mistakes. A change in plans could require adaptation. A quiet night at home suits you fine. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):Today is a 9 — Things seem unstable. Don't touch savings. Minimize risks. Financial conflicts spark if you give them fuel. Get into creative work and postpone big meetings or deadlines. Organize, clean and sort. File papers. Get quietly productive. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20):Today is a 7 — Settle into some tranquility. Meditation or a dream reveals a new direction. Use your common sense. In a confrontation, listen for the gold. Work out a contentious situation for unforeseen options. No need to decide now. Consider all angles.

Or perhaps the diamond finesse will work; in theory, this is a 50-50 shot, but not in newspaper columns or classes! South needs to remember that a ruff in the shorter trump hand eliminates a loser and gains an extra trump trick. He should take the first trick, cash his diamond ace, and continue with the diamond queen. West wins and plays another trump, but South takes that, crosses to dummy with a club, and ruffs the last diamond in his hand. Then he cruises home. The queen of diamonds is a red-card herring.

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.

N o starterhas benefited more from the surge than Ryan '5%87lt Vogelsong. The veteran right-hander escaped a couple of tough jams to allow one run in six innings, winning his third straight start, to help the Giants complete a three-game sweep in Milwaukee with a 3-1 victory Wednesday over the Brewers. Vogelsong (4-2) ended a strong May by allowing six hits and striking out five. He' s 4-0 with a 1.14 ERA over 31 2-3 innings this month. "Just location has been better," Vogelsong said. 'When I'm mechanically right, I can go out there and make pitches." Joe Panik hit a t wo-run homer in the fifth. The bullpen finished off the last-place Brewers with three hitless innings, capped by Santiago Casilla's 1-2-3 ninth for his 14th save. The Right home promised to be relaxingafter the secondplace Giants went 5-2 to wrap up a seven-game road trip that also included a stop in Colorado.

Kazmir, winless since April 13, didn't allow a hit in three innings and struck out four with three walks. He walked slowly off the mound after striking out Miguel Cabrera to end the third, then later was taken to get an MRI on his left shoulder. "His body language on the mound wasn't good," Oakland catcher Stephen Vogt said. "It was more grimace-y, just kind of like tight. That's how he described it, that his shoulder was tight." Kazmir's loss was magnified when his replacem ent, DanOtero,gave up a three-run home run to former A's slugger Yoenis Cespedes with two outs in the fifth inning. Cespedes homered on a 2-2 changeupfrom Otero (2-3) after Ian K i nsler doubled to end an 0-for-22 drought and Cabrera was intentionally walked. The Cuban slugger's sixth home run of the season was his first at the Coliseum since being traded from the A's to the Boston Red Sox on July 31 in exchange for pitcher Jon Lester. Cespedes, who was later dealt to the Tigers in the offseason, hadn't been back to Oakland since then and was 2 for 7 with three walks in the series before hitting a 2-2 pitch over the left field wall. "Dan gets that b a ll down 99 times out of 100," Vogt said. "And of course it's Cespedes." Kyle Ryan (1-0) pitched three innings of relief for the win. Tigers manager Brad Ausmus was forced to juggle his pitching staff after Alfredo Simon was placed on the bereavement list when he fiew to the Dominican Republic to be with his ailing father following Tuesday night' s loss to the A' s. The struggling A's lost theirsecond straight after a season-high three-game winning streak. Vogt tri pled and scored in the seventh for Oakland.

"She has such great awareness on the field," said Summerville head coach Brad Schultz. "She knows the game so well. She earned the most votes for First Team All-League. Every coach in the league voted for her as a First Team player." Joining PetersonWood as on the First Team was Teska Hapig-Ward. The junior scored four goals and had a league-high15 assists. "Teska works hard all game long," Schultz said. "She plays one of the hardest positions at outside midfielder. She has to be able to do so much out there on the field. She gives it all game long. She led our league with assists and was number 11 in the section in assists. So for her to be up there, just speaks highly of what she accomplished this year." Summerville goalkeeper Isabella Boyak was one of the most dominating goalkeepers in the league. She allowed just 22 goals in 22 games. She recorded 156 saves and posted clean sheets. In five of the 22 games, teams didn'tscore more than one goal offof the senior goalkeeper. Boyak had 20 saves ina 1-0 loss against Amador, the Sac-Joaquin Section Division IV Champions.

ment.

'To be honest, I was really shocked," Johnson said. "It was a reall y greathonor to getthis award,especially because I'm a goalkeeper and not a defensive player on the field. I know that out of all the girls in the league, some of which are really outstanding players, I'm just a goalie who stands there to block balls. So to have all the coachesvote for me to get his award is just awesome and a great honor." Johnson may feel that she is just a goalie who stands there to block balls, but Leetham

Johnson allowed 31 goals in 24 games. She stopped 151 shots and recorded eight shutouts. Johnson worked with team goalkeeper coach, Devin Strehl, and that extra attention helped take her game to the next level. Protecting the goal is something that Johnson has done since she was 8-yearsold. "From the moment I started playing goalie, I loved the position," Johnson said. "I love to dive and stop the ball. It's one of the greatest feelings." Goalkeeper, more so than otherother position,requires the player to have ice water running through their veins. Not only is nerves of steel a requirement, but having a short memory span is a must.

"It is a very stressful position," Johnson said. "It takes a lotofbackbone to be a good keeper. I had some coaches that really helped me. If you let a ball in, that could be the difference between a win and a loss. You know that you aren' t going to block every ball, but you have to let it go when one gets by you. When that happens, I wiH analyze the situation to figure out how I can block the next ball." Johnson was the leader of the Calaveras defense, and she knows that playing defense is a thankless job, but her Redskins defense was one of the best in the MLL. "I'm really proud of my defense," Johnson said."As a goalkeeper, Irespectmy defense.I know they don't get the glory of scoringgoals,but they are the ones that keep the other team from taking easy shots. I respect them and was proud of how well they played." Skellenger and Johnson have one more year of headto-head battles. Anytime the Most Outstanding Offensive and Defensive playerare going against each other, something memorableisboundtohappen. "When I play against someone like Darian, who has good ball control and takes good shots it's really an honor to play someone that good," Johnson said. "I make her better, and she makes me better."

BRIEFS Dodgers trade 3B 3Llan Uribe to Braves LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Los Angeles Dodgers dealtthird baseman Juan Uribe to the Atlanta Braves on Wednesday in a six-playertrade that was initially blocked. The Dodgers also sent right-handed pitcher Chris Withrow to the Braves for infielder Alberto Callaspo, left-handers Eric Stults and Ian Thomas, and minor league right-hander Juan Jaime. The 36-year-old Uribe was batting .247 with one home run and six RBI in 29 games. He became expendable after losing his starting job to veteran Justin Turner and rookie Alex Guerrero, who was hitting .313 with eight homers in 83 at-bats. Callaspo originally nixed the trade under a provision that prevents any player who became a major leaguefree agent from being traded without his approval until after June 15. He agreed to a $3 million, one-year contract with the Braves in December.

QUESTIONS 8tATTITUDE Compelling questions ... and maybeafew actualanswers

THINGS WE L AT C OTT E

SPEED FREAKS 3 questions we had to ask —ourselves

AssociatedPress/JOHN RAOUX

Will this kick-start Carl Edwards into title contention?

Will Mark Martin finally climb into the Hall of Fame next year?

Gotta ask, is 600 miles toomuch?

ROB'S RAMBLINGS: Title contention, no. But wasn't it kind of cool to see that back flip again? KEN'S CALL: Fuelmileage victories don' t kick-start anything, except debates on the worthiness of fuelmileage wins.

Almost was for Denny Hamlin, who drove the last 100 miles feeling like he was gonna puke. As we ponder what that'd be like if you were wearing a full-faced racing helmet ... Ugh ... where were we? Let's move on.

Shorter races? This week they' re at Dover, where races were shortened from 500 to 400 miles in the late-'90s. Even Pocono was eventually convinced to lop off 100 miles. The coming years will likely see plenty of changes, including race lengths. At some places, less will be more.

Who' ll be next firsttime winner? ROB'S RAMBLINGS: Truex is the obvious answer with 11 top-10s in 12 races, but rooting for Jeff. KEN'S CALL: It's gotta be Martin Truex, right? Eventually, right? Right?

Too early to handicapnext HOF? Never too early. I really thought Mark Martin and Rick Hendrick were going in with last week's voting, so that should make them my two favorites for next year. Make Benny Parsons the third favorite.

AssociatedPress/GERRY BROOINE

Will Jeff Gordon be a good broadcaster?

Carl Edwards does a back flip from his car after winning the Coca-Cola 600 on Sunday at Charlotte Motor Speedway. How much longer until we see that back flip again?

ROB'S RAMBLINGS: In reference to my last

1. Carl still has it

2. Hamlin's headache

3. Daddy Kyle is back

Carl Edwards snapped a 31race winless streak, even if it was a fuel-mileage victory. But he still has it when it comes to his signature back flip. Maybe this win could be what jump-starts Edwards, who has struggled this season with just one top-10 and an average finish of 18.8.

No matter how intense Denny Hamlin's migraine was Sunday, he leaves Charlotte loving the track and his car setup. After winning the All-Star Race on May 16, he nearly pulled off another win at the track. If not for a vibration in a wheel that forced him into the pits late, he had a legitimate shot at the double.

There was some question about Kyle Busch's ability to handle a 600-mile race after

answer, my heartand ears — do not want Jeff here. Maybe just make a guest appearance every now and then. KEN'S CALL: He' s excellent at explaining the nuances of being a racer, but he's too nice to ruffle feathers, and we can use some of that in the booth.

DID YOU KNOW? Jeff Gordon's most recent Sprint Cup Series win came in September at Dover, where he dominated. He led the final 71 laps and was 4-plus seconds ahead of runner-up Brad Keselowski at the end. It was the 92nd win of Gordon's career, and presumably not his last. We think.
