One of the most significant — and expensive — public works projects in Tuolumne County's recent history got underway Tuesday at a ceremonial groundbreaking for a new juvenile hall. More than 100 people watched as county leaders wielded shovels and turned dirt at the site of the $20 million Mother Lode Regional Juvenile Detention Facility, part of the future Law and Justice Center campus off Old Wards Ferry Road in Sonora. "It's an exciting moment to be at this point in the process," said Deputy County Administrator Maureen Frank, who has overseen the project that's been in development for more than 17 years.

A rock climber from Colorado died last week in a 200foot fall from The Nose route of El Capitan in Yosemite National Park, a park ranger said Tuesday. Keith Tyler Gordon, 21, who had addresses in Boulder and Durango, was climbing May 27 with at least one other person when he fell from Camp 6— about 2,000 feet above the valley floorto a ledge on the same route

known as Camp 5, Yosemite spokesperson Kari Cobb said.

Gordon was fatally injured, and park dispatch receivedthe first callofthe incident at 1:15 p.m., Cobb said. Yosemite search-andrescue (YOSAR) personnel and park rangers responded. T wo Yosemite la w

No one was injured during the retrieval operation, which ended for YOSAR and park rangers at 8:30 p.m. the same day. The cause of the fall remained under investigation as of Tuesday afternoon, Cobb said. Cobb said it remained unclear when Gordon and his party began their climb, and whether Gordon ever visited Yosemitebefore. Gordon was the fourth person to die in Yosemite so farthisyear,Cobb said. In late January, Cody Byers Long, 24, of Fresno, died when he fell while descending a route on Royal Arches near the Ahwahnee Hotel. In M ay, wingsuit BASE jumpers Dean Pot-

Do you make a mean gluten-free peanut butter cookie? Or, have you recently jarred a peck of peppers, arranged flowers, taken cool photos of a sunset, quilted an afghan, potted a plant, or just reared a funky-looking cactus? If you answered yes to any of these — or dozens of other potential skill- or hobby-related questions — you may be Mother Lode Fair exhibitor material. The period for judged fair exhibitor entries opened May 1 and is coming to a close June 15 (don't be confused by a printing error on the exhibitor handbook). The fair itself runs July 10 to 12. You don't need to be a member of4-H or FFA, or a high school art or home etc. class, to find a niche. Thereare literally dozens ofarts,crafts and food-related contestsfor civilians to enter.Some are arranged by age group. So many categories are there,you're bound to be good at one or more of them. A casual browse through the exhibitors' guide demonstrates the variety both broad and narrow. Included are animal accessories, leather clothing, hand-woven wall hangings, frayed-edged quilts, and various confections, pies and baked goods; plus home-grown vegetables, preserved foods, cut flowers, and arranged flowers.... Did we mention cut herbs, potted plants, cacti and succulents, or abstract oil, acrylic or water-color paintings, and black-and-white photos of everythmg from animals to architecture, children and, of course, flowers? Not all contests are ones your mother or grandmother might have entered (though there are plenty of those). Some of the hipper exhibitor categories this year include "selfies" (no larger than 5x7, and must be tasteful), gluten&ee everything (pies, confections, baked goods), and a bevy of boutique-y homemade wine varieties. Skills are certainly helpful for winning. But if you can breathe, have at least a few interests, and can fill out the &ee entry form, you' re bound to be competitive. So what' s to lose? Competing with a good shot at winning a first-, second- or third-place ribbon is another way to enjoy the Mother Lode — perhaps a deeper and more-interactive one. But hurry. There are only two weeks left Note: All the entry categories and steps for entering are contained in the 76-page exhibitor handbook. The handbook

GUEST COLUMN

Religious right is hurting GOP image WASHINGTON — Several years ago, I heard Republican strategist Karl Rove give a most eloquent answer to a question about his faith, rendered here &om memory: Faith is a gift that, unfortunately, I have not received. I feel the same way about reality shows. Whatever was given to the millions who delight in reality TV was not received by me. This is especially so when reality, religion and politics converge in a home populated by 19 children and two compulsively fertile adults. I'mreferring,ofcourse,to"19 Kidsand Counting," which puts literate people in mind of a baby goat factory that under similarly procreative practices would prompt charges of animal cruelty. Human offspring are children, accurately speaking, not kids. And 19 of them isn' t just a brood but a sideshow. As most know by now, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar are the prolific parents in this mysteriously popular TLC show. They le to God the number of babies they would bring forth — and God is clearly not counting. Recently, even the least-interested among us learned that their oldest, Josh, sexually preyed upon five underage girls, including some of his little sisters, 12 years ago when he was a teenager. This despite the Duggars having raised their children by the book — homeschooling, restricting access to entertainment, guiding courtships and advising that sex should await marriage, which, come to think of it, wouldn't hurt a nation that seems tobein perpetual rut. The Duggars' expectations were more or less the norm not so very long agoand many would argue that the country

lives. This may explain in part why their show has ranked among the top 25 cable shows, especially among conservative Christians. Other viewers most likely have been gawkersriveted by the spectacle of so much post-betrothal activity under one tent by just one couple — and the fact that no one in his or her right mind would wish 19 children on anyone. The Duggars have been further differentiated &om Mainstream America 2015 by being frequently associated with, and embraced by, the Quiverfull movement. The tenets of this Christian patriarchy sect are fairly obvious: Men rule; women serve. Although the family says they are not afllliated with the movement, they mirror many of its principles. This might explain why Jim Bob went to church elders after his son confessed to child molestation and why he later sent Josh to see Arkansas State Trooper Joe Hutchens, who lectured him but took no action. Perhaps this is because Hutchens was nursing some unholy thoughts of his own. He is now serving a 56-year sentence for child pornography. Into this perverse auto-da-fe have waltzed two Republican presidential candidates, Mike Huckabee and Rick Santorum, presumptively the two most devout Christians among the — heyl19 likely Republican presidential candidates. Numerologists? Both men have been political favorites of the Duggar family, though Santorum has now begun would be better off if more parents were distancing himself. similarly engaged in their children' s The rather obvious expectation is that

the GOPs evangelical base will anoint either Huckabee or Santorum as their nominee. And these two candidates may not have been far-fetched in their calculations in cozying up to the family, but only if they have no ambitions beyond the primary. Nationally, neither has a ghost of a chance of becoming president for the simple reason that Americans in increasing numbers find the convergence of religion and politics distasteful if not loathsome. This is especially true for political moderates and millennials, according to a just-released Pew Research Center study. Young people, who missed the Golden Age when most people didn't talk about their religious beliefs or their politicsand never in combination — perceive

that to be religious is to be politically conservative. They' re saying "no thanks" to that and, by extrapolation, to anyone with an (R) after his or her name. In the meantime, one religious group is flourishing — Muslims. Pew demographic projections forecast that Muslims eventually will surpass Jews as a religious minority owing to immigration and birth rates. To a party that tends to be skeptical toward Islam and draconian about immigration, separating politics from religion would seem to be an imperativeofsome urgency. At the very least, Republicans wishing to become president might steer clear of religious grandstanding and avoid association with reality show stars whose single claim to fame is having more babies than anyone else. And counting. Kathleen Parker writes a syndicated

Bills target smoking age, e-cigarettes SACRAMENTO — California lawmakers are pushing forward bills to raise the legal age to buy cigarettes &om 18 to 21 and going aRer the increasingly popular electronic cigarettes. On a 26-8 vote, the state Senate on Tuesday passed SB151 by Sen. Ed Hernandez of La Puente that would raise the smoking age. Lawmakers also passed SB140 by Sen. Mark Leno of San Francisco to ban e-cigarettes in public spaces on a 24-12 vote. The Democratic lawmakers'bills both advance to the Assembly. California would become the firstor second state to

raise its smoking age. A similar bill passed in Hawaii is now before the governor there. Leno's bill would classify ecigarettes astobacco products similar to cigarettes, banning their use in restaurants, buses, hospitals and other public places.

Black and3ewish WWI vets honored W ASHINGTON — D e claring it's never too late to make things right, President Barack Obama posthumously bestowed the Medal of Honor on two World War I veterans whose heroic acts nearly 100 years ago went unrecognized in an age of discrimination. In a tearful, joyful East Room ceremony recalling the battlefield triumphs as well as theprejudices of20th century America, Sgt. William Shemin and Pvt. Henry Johnson were recognized with the nation's highest military decorationfor saving their comrades on French front lines. Shemin was Jewish and Johnson was black. "It has taken a long time for Henry Johnson and William S hemin to receive the ~ tion they deserve, and there are surely others whose heroism is still unacknowledged and uncelebrated," Obama said. 'The least we can do is to say we know who you are, we know what you did for us, we areforever grateful, "he said. Obama applauded the tirelesseffortsoftheir advocates, who led Congress to pass an exemption from Medal of Honor rulesspecifying that heroic actions have to have taken place within five years to be considered.

SACRAMENTO — State lawmakers approved legislation allowing law enforcement to once again take DNA samples from criminals convicted of crimes that were reduced to misdemeanors. AB390 advanced Tuesday on a 64-2vote. It is one of several bills introduced to roll back provisions of Proposition 47, which voters approved last November to reduce penalties for some crimes. Criminals convictedofcrimes consideredmisdemeanors insteadof felonies don't have to surrender DNA samples. Democratic Assemblyman Jim Cooper of Elk Grove introduced AB390 after law enforcement groups said they were losing key information during criminal investigations. His bill only compels DNA samples for criminals who have prior convictions forviolent misdemeanors, including witness intimidation and pos- WORLD sessing machine guns.

Healthcare OK'd for immigrant kids SACRAMENTO (AP) — The California Senate on Tuesday approved legislation that would make the state the first in the nation to extend health coverage to children who are in the country illegally and seek federal authorization to sell private insurance to immigrants without documentation. Senators approved a bill that would allow between 195,000 and 240,000 children under 19 from low-income familiesto qualify for state-funded Medi-Cal, regardless of their legal status. It also would seek a federal waiver for California to sell unsubsidized private health insurance through the state's health exchange, known as Covered California. If passed and signed by Gov. Jerry Brown, limited enrollment for lowi ncome immigrant adults 19 a n d older into Medi-Cal would be allowed dependingon how much funding lawmakers approvein next year'sbudget. SB4 advanced to the Assembly on a bipartisanvote,28-11. Sen. Ricardo Lara, a Democrat from Bell Gardens, hailed his bill as a historicmove to expand access to health care on behalf of millions of immigrant

FBI behind surveillance aircraft over US cities WASHINGTON (AP)Scores of low-flying planes circling American cities are part of a civilian air force operated by the FBI and obscuredbehind fictitious companies, The Associated Press has learned. The AP traced at least 50 aircraft back to the FBI, and identified more than 100 flights in 11 states over a 30-day period since late April, orbiting both major cities and rural areas. Atleast 115 planes, including 90 Cessna aircraft, were mentioned in a federal budget document from 2009. For decades, the planes have provided support to FBI surveillance operations on the ground. But now the aircraft are equipped with high-tech c ameras, and i n r a r e circumstances, technology capable of tracking thousands of cellphones, raising questions about how these surveillance flights affect Americans' privacy. T he FBI s a y s t h e planes are not equipped or used for bulk collection activities or mass surveillance. The surveillance equipment is used for ongoing investigations, the FBI says, generally without a judge's approval. The FBI confirmed for the first time the widescale use of the aircraft, which the AP traced to at least 13 fake companies, such as FVX Research, KQM Aviation, NBR Aviation and PXW Services.

The president's action excludes immigrants who came to the country illegally from qualifying for federal health benefits. But California has its

age with state money to low-income

immigrants under Medi-Cal. A legislative analysis before additional amendments were made had estimated the cost to expand Medi-Cal to immigrant children regardless of their legal status would depend on the outcome of a legal challenge to Obama's executive order. It would cost up to $135 million a year without the president's executive action and up to $83 million a year with the president's action based on protection for 900,000 ofthestate's2.5 million immigrants without documentation. Lara's office said Tuesday that an

updated cost estimate was not immediately available. Brown, a Democrat, has been reluctant to increase spending in his fourth and final term and has not said whether he would sign the bill. Supporters initially proposed expanding health coverage to all i mmigrants regardlessof their legal status but narrowed the scope of their proposal in recent weeks, hoping to entice the governor's support.

US-led coalition doubles down on Islamic State group strategy PARIS (AP) — The U.S.led coalition against the Islamic State is doubling down on its strategy to fight the extremists, insisting on staying thecourseitsetlastyear despite the radical group's recent conquests on both sides of the border between Iraq and Syria. Iraqi P r im e M i n ister Haider al-Abadi pressed his case Tuesday for more support &om the 25 countries in the coalition at a one-day Paris conference on fighting the militant group, organized within weeks of the fall of the Iraqi city of Ramadi and the Syrian city of Palmyra. The coalition has mustered a mix of airstrikes, intelligence sharing and assistancefor Iraqiground operations against the extremists. Al-Abadi said more was needed - his countryreeling aftertroops pulled out of Ramadi without afi ghtand abandoned U.S.-supplied tanks and weapons. ''We will redouble our efforts," said Deputy Secretary of State Tony Blinken, who was leading the delegation after U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry broke his leg in a cycling accident in eastern France over the weekend. IS, Blinken said, "stands for nothing and depends on people who will fall for anything." But Tuesday's conference offered no strategy beyond that which has yet to bear Suit, and none had been expected. A member of the main Western-backedSyrian Coalition, Hadi al-Bahra, criticized the plan, saying the U.S. was avoiding targeting the Assad government and making it easier

for Islamic State's takeover. Blinken, who like the others focused primarily on Iraq on Tuesday, said the U.S. would makeiteasierforIraq to obtain new weapons, afi er al-Abadi said the sanctionshit countries of Iran and Russia were potentially important arms suppliers. "Armament and ammmu-

tion, we haven't seen much. Almost none. We' re relying on ourselves, but fighting is very hard this way," al-Abadi saidbeforetheconference. Later Tuesday, the Pentagon said that 2,000 AT-4 rocketsfor use against armored suicide truck bombs arrived in Iraq over the weekend. A spokesman, Col.

Steve Warren, said 1,000 went directly to the Iraqi foruse against IS and 1,000 are intended for use in training Iraqisecurity forces.The Pentagon has said for some time that it also will provide the Iraqis with a variety of other unspecified anti-tank weaponry as well as capabilities to counter IS homemade

bombs. Iran and Russia are not part ofthe U.S.-led coalition and they did not attend s conference, nor was there a representative from Syria. French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said Iraq's problems wouldn' t end until Syria's government changes.

"Our Angels Camp Farmers Market will be opening up for the season this coming Friday from 5 o' clock until dusk," she said. "It will run every Friday through the summer, until the end of September." Myers said this year there will be theme nights, including an evening geared toward children. "We' re going to have a 'Kid's Night'. We' ve got a juggler coming and (there will be) games for children. I'm hoping to havea petting zoo— and lotsofkidfriendly food," she said. "I plan to have 'Chef's Night' and invite local chefs down and have some cooking demonstrations. I also am planning a 'Living Green Night' to highlight organic foods,or fresh,healthy foods."

The boardcollectively approved this ordinance. City Building I nspector Steven Flaigg said in a May 29 interview that under the new ordinance, a permit couldcostup to 10 percent ofthe cost of the system, but it "will not be that high." "We will have a set fee of probably a little over $300,e he said. Flaigg said the cost to install solar panelsvaries from projecttoproject. "No two are the same," he said. Flaigg added that the ordinance will m ake the processof installing solar panels easier. "We will be able to do the actual permit application, signatures and all that type ofstuffelectronically,"he said.

Temporary solutions T uolumne County h a s been working with residents who have failing wells since November to provide aid in the form of temporary tank installations and water deliveries by truck, with the help of California Disaster Assistance Act funds. As a costeffective alternative to tem-

porary tanks and trucked-in water, some drought-impacted residents are receiving temporary connections to Tu-

olumne Utilities District water service, with similar state assistance.

County and ATCAA concerns about water haulers and the potential for receiving contaminated water center on an incident in May. A resident

with a problem well took the initiative to have a tank installedto receive trucked-in water, Riggs said. She then contacted the county for assistance. "We do know somebody who thought they were getting potable water," Riggs said. "They thought they had purchased potable, but when we went out to install a tank,

we tested the water in their existing tank, and it was contaminated." In cases where residents with failing wells have already installed their own tanks, the county and ATCAA will try to work with those tanks, but they check and sanitizethe tanks before coordinating water deliveries, Riggs said. In the incident in May, the general contractor for ATCAA, Jeff Manke, looked in the tank and spotted a problem, Riggs said. "He opened it up, and there were things floating in the water," Riggs said. "Rob Kostlivy had the water tested through a lab. It was contaminated. It had things in there that should not be there. These tanks are sealed and she had just had a delivery." It wasnot clear ifthe resident specif ically requested potableor nonpotable water for delivery, but she thought she was getting potable, Riggs

County are Mike McConnell Construction of Sonora and The ConfidenceRidge Company of Sonora. "No one has been reported sick due to contaminated water that I know of," Riggs said. "But this is a concern and we want people to know. You hire a licensed contractor for certain reasons. They have to follow rules and guidelines to ensure you get what you pay for. That is the same with potable water haulers. They are supposed to have a certification number just like a licensed contractor. "If something doesn't look right, it probably isn't right and you need to check into it," Riggs said. Tuolumne County has installedat least39 temporary tanks at r e sidences with drought-impacted wells so far, with seven more referrals, Riggs said. What will happen for residents receiving assistance from the county, ATCAA and TUD when state emergency funding runs out remains unclear, Slocum said. But individual property owners who are receiving help now may be faced with paying their own way in future. 'Vile are looking at longterm solutions," Slocum said. "There are options for residents, including permanent TUD connection, drilling another well, or deepening the existing well in hopes of finding more water. "At this point, it looks like funding for long-term would be theresponsibility of property owners," Slocum said. Slocum urged anyone with questions about drought-impacted wells, temporary water tanks and water deliveries to call the County Division of Environmental Health at 533-5633 or 533-5665.

BOARD Conti nued from Page Al nile Detention Facility prior to its projected opening in late 2016. The other additional staffing includes three previously approved hires in the SheriiFs Office and two in the Behavioral Health Department, all of which will be offset by other funds. The board typically approves a preliminary budget in June before a final budget in August that incorporates state and federal spending, as well as other expenses and revenues that are generally unknown early in the summer.

In order to balance the preliminary budget, Pedro recommended: • foregoingthe transferof$100,000 out of the General Fund to an account for maintenance at county-operated

airports in Columbia and Pine MountainLake near Groveland; • nixing the purchase of a $100,000 emergency power generator at the county's Animal Control shelter in Jamestown; • assuming the county will end up

with an additional $590,000 in revenues when the final budget is adopted in August, and; • temporarily reducing the General Fund's $1 million reserve account to $471,643to cover the difference. Pedro presented numbers that show the county has received higher than expected revenues by the final budget in August over the past three years, ranging from about $892,000 to $1.6 million However, he cautioned the board against "making it a habit" to dependon the variance because it's "highly variable" from year to year. Pedro also noted that any additional money could be used to bring the General Fund reserves back up to $1 million by August. District5 Supervisor Karl Rodefer expressed concern about the lack of an emergency generator at the Animal Control shelter. JenniferClarke, manager of Tuolumne County Animal Control, said the shelter has been without one since itbegan operating at its current location off Victoria Way in 1996. When the power goes out, the shelter loses heating and cooling to regulate the temperature for animals.

Phones, radio communications and lighting are also lost. R We're kind of dead in the water when we don't have power," Clarke said. Rodefer asked county staff to look for money in the final budget in August to pay for the generator. Given the tightness of the budget this year due to other commitmentssuch as funding for a new county jail and staffing for the juvenile detention facility — District 3 Supervisor Evan Royce said the county should be cautious about spending money on the generator. "I agree that's something that's important, but I just caution you not to prioritize over maybe some other more important things that we' re dealing with," he said. "We' ve made it this far, and there's a lot of ways I'm sure we could get around it." Also at Tuesday's meeting, the board: • Approved various contracts related

to the construction of the Mother Lode Regional Juvenile Detention Facility. • Approved amending a $211,110 contract for architectural work on a

new county jail, assuming the county will receive the $13 million grant it still needs &om the state later this summer.

Retirement By JANE BENNETT CLARK Kipli nger Personal Finance

I' ve always been a horrible decision maker. My approach is to over-research, change my mind a few times and, if possible, kick the can down the road. Now an actuary has suggested a way to put some method into the decisionm aking madness. In h i s recent book, "What's Your Future Worth?" Peter Neuw irth d escribes how t o translatethe actuarial concept of present value into retirement decisions.

New Sonora eatery open Pot Bellie's is now open at 147 S. Washington Street in downtown Sonora. The business opened Monday and serves breakfast and lunch. The menu includes hot and cold sandwiches, sides, potato salad, coleslaw, and a breakfast menu. The owner is Mike Shimonek, ofTwain Harte. It is a family restaurant that doesn' t serve alcohol and has artwork on display from local elementary schools. The business is closed on Wednesdays and open from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. the rest of the week.

treme shortageoflicensed child care providers, according to an assessment done in 2014. According to the assessment, conducted by Infant-Child Enrichment Services, there are 30 home-based child care providers in Tuolumne Countyand 34 in Calaveras County, and there are2,985 children ages birth to 12 in need of child care in Tuolumne County alone, said Suzan Greenwood of ICES. More than 1,100 of those children do not have consistent daycare. That means that 40 percent of the child-care need in the county is unmet. In Calaveras County, there is a 58 percent unmet need for childcare, said Kelly Graesch, program director at The Resource Connection in San Andreas, which provides resources and referrals for childcare in Calaveras and Amador counties. Having access to quality, consistent child care, is "not just a nice thing," Greenwood said. "It really is a critical piece of our culture and economy," Greenwood said. Working parents are acriticalpartofthein&astructureofthe

we can't attract young families to the area if we don'thave adequate child care,"agreed Graesch. 'Tuolumne Countydoes nothaveenough child care providers. We are literally at a critical shortage," Greenwood said. ICES and The Resource Connection resource and referral agency in Calaveras County are trying to recruit new family child care providers. Family child care is a value to the entire community, and it's a very rewarding and enriching career, Greenwood said. "We havea criticalshortage,and we are strongly recruiting in our community, but it takesa specialperson.You have toreally love children," Greenwood said. Having quality child care is a huge benefit to parents, who can work all day knowing their child is being well cared for, Greenwood said. Full-time working parent Christine Meyers, of Twain Harte, agrees. "It gives you a piece of mind so you can focus on work, knowing your child is in good hands," Meyers said. Meyers has a 19-month-old daughter who goes to a family child-care provider. Meyers is on her second child-care provider. She said the first one just wasn't the right fit. "I felt like I had to call every couple of hours and check in," Meyers said. See CHILDCARE / Page B2

resource. Let'sapply the process to a real-world decision: when to claim Social Security. Say you define your choices as taking benefits at 62 (with a 25-percent reduction) or at 66 (for the full amount). Consider th e p o ssible outcomes: You' ll quit working and claim at 62, then lose all of your savings in a stock market crash. You' ll claim at 66 and die the next year,leaving money on the table. You' ll live to 100 and beat the system. Or Social Security will fold before you get your share. The beauty of this exercise is that it encourages you to consider all the outcomes, not just the ones you naturally gravitate to, says Steve Vernon, an actuary who is a consulting research scholar at the Stanford Center on Longevity. Once you' ve looked at every scenario, consider the likelihood of each one. Stock m arket crash? It' s possible, but you wouldn't lose every nickel. Die sooner or later?

Meyers is expecting her second child in November and has a 19-month-old who goes to a home-based family child-care provider.

When he takes a case, he applies all of his training and skill, as well as his physical and mental energy toward helping his client. He wears himself out worrying about the case. He works as hard as he can on his client's behalf until the case is finished. It takes a toll, but I am proud of him. I wish the people who make jokes about lawyers could see how much my husband cares for his clients and how

ANSWER: TSH is a hormone produced by the pituitary gland that regulatesthe amount of thyroid hormone released. When the gland makes too much (as in Graves' disease), TSH levels are low. If the gland can't make enough (as in Hashimoto's hypothyroidism), TSH is high. If TSH and thyroxine (T4) are high, it could be that the pituitary is making too much (usually from a tumor). However, your levels are very

I have been tested many times and get allergy injections once a week. These seem to help, but what relieves all of my symptoms for the season is an 80mg Kenalog injection once a year in the beginning of March. I question whether I can stop the allergy shots altogether and just get the Kenalog injection. I' ve asked my allergy doctor about this, and he indicates that I should stay on the regular allergy shots. He's not one to talk much, and he's the only one my insurance allows me to see. Besides the completeallergy relief I get &om the steroidshot,Igetgood sideeffects— increasedenergy,and it seems to relieve 75 percent of my lower-back pain, at least for a couple of months.

Lawyers generally have a terrible reputation ( 44sharks" comes to mind), but most attorneys are dedicated and extremely hanlworIDng professionals. Their job is to represent the client. They are obligated to do their best, but others often blame the attorney if the client is unpopular or the lawyer is aggressive in the client's defense.

Thyroid supplement test results in question DEAR DR. ROACH:I have taken a thyroid supplement since it was first prescri bed forme ,nearly 30 yearsago. The dose has changed from time to time as the lab work would indicate. My dosagehasbeen 75mcgforthepastseveral years. A year ago, my TSH reading was 5.21 and my T4 &ee was 1.37. My physician at that time requested a second bloodtestbefore ordering a change in dosage. I had not taken my levothyroxine the morning of the first test, but did take it prior to the second test, which had results in the normal range. That physician has since left, and my new doctorrecentl y ordered lab work.Prior to goingfor the blood draw, Idid take levothyroxine.

Stepmom meddles with father-daughter bond DEAR ANNIE: My friend "Nancy" has become one of those stepmothers who negatively influences her husband' s relationship with his adult children. When things began to turn sour between Nancy and her husband's daughter, who lived nearby, the daughter retaliated by distancing herself &om her father, refusing to see him and avoiding his calls. Nancy persuaded her husband to move across the country. She blames the moveon the daughter,who "drove them away," but I'm sure his daughter sees it as Nancy making sure Dad is totally alienated from his family. Now, when Nancy's husband speaks of visiting his daughter and her family, Nancy actively tries to discourage him,

I don't recommend steroid injections, such as triamcinolone (Kenalog) at all for seasonal allergies. They certainly are efFective, but the absorption is unpredictable. The potential side efiects areserious,and there isno way to get ridoftheinjected steroid ifsideeffects occur. Serious side e6'ects include elevations in blood pressure and blood sugar (occasionally converting borderline high bloodsugars to overt diabetes), loss of bone strength and mental status changes, including acute psychosis. You report good side effects, but you might be having signi6cant side effects without knowing it. A goodresponse tosystemic steroids, whether by injection or by oral steroids such as prednisone, predicts a good response to topical nasal steroids, which have far fewer side effects than systemic steroids.

However, despite the joy the family had in running the restaurant, the couple never planned to operate it indefinitely, Larry Bezaitis said. The family has faced some challenges of late, and several relativeshave died or have health issues, so the couple is taking a break from working, Larry Bezaitis explained. "It's been a really hard decision," Brenda Bezaitis said. The last day of business was May 9. "We' re going to take some time off and take some time to rest," said Larry, who put in about 75 hours a week at the restaurant.

Zobrist's grand slam lifts A's over Tigers DETROIT (AP) — Ben Zobrist figured his line drive with the bases loaded was hit hard enough to go over the right fielder's ~ head. When it cleared the wall as well, the Oakland Athletics had the lead. Zobrist's grand slam highlighted a five-run seventh inning for Oakland as the Athletics rallied for a 5-3 victory over the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday night. It was by no means a towering shot, but itreached the firstrow offans above the wall.

"I didn't think it was going to clear, to be honest, when I hit it, but I knew I hit it hard enough to get over his head," Zobrist said. "So I was just happy about that." Al&edo Simon (5-3) held the A's to one hit over the first six innings, but the Tigers scufHed defensivel y in the seventh, and Oakland had the bases loaded with one run already in when the right-hander was pulled. Angel Nesbitt came on in relief, and Zobrist greeted him with a driveto right.

Replays showed a young fan catching the ball in his glove and then holding it up with his other hand before being hugged by those around him. Then the boy almost immediately began to look distraught, as if the home run's impact on the Tigers had set in. Kend all Graveman (3-2) allowed three runs and eight hits in si x i nnings. Evan Scribner pitched two perfect innings of relief, and Tyler Clippard finished for his eighth save. Simon allowed four runs and four hits in 6 1-3 innings.

TENNIS Federer loses te Wawrinka in Paris PARIS (AP) — Stumbling on his way to the net, Roger Federer dropped his racket and fell to his knees on the red clay. Hardly the sort of grace and precision the world has come to expect from the 17-time

Grand Slam champion. There were other unusual sights in Federer's 6-4, 6-3, 7-6 (4) loss in the French Open quarterfi nals Tuesday against his pal and Swiss Davis Cup teammate Stan Wawrinka. Rarely injured and appearing in a 62nd con-

Blatter says he will resign as FIFA president ZURICH (AP) — The end for Sepp Blatter came suddenly, just days after he had seemingly solidified his hold on FIFA. The 79-year-old leader of the world's most popular sport defied global animosity last week to win four more years in office. But his reelectiononly increased the pressure &om c olleagues, sponsors, athletes and fans for Blatter to step down as FIFA's president. At a hastily arranged news conference Tuesday, Blatter announced he would leave office within months and called fora fresh election to appoint a successor. "I cherish FIFA more than anything and I want to do only what is best for FIFA and for football," said Blatter,who could stillbe a target of U.S. investigators delving intodecades of corruptionand bribery accusations against FIFA officials. After generations under Blatter and his mentor, Joao Havelange, the announcement left FIFA without a leader and without a clear course forward.

So long superior to the younger Wawrinka, Federer was defeatedfor only the third time in their 19 head-to-head m a t ches, and for the first time in five meetings at Grand Slam tournaments.

FIFA president matches his time in office.

Blatter a gain d i r ected blame for FIFA's reputation at his executive colleagues who have repeatedly been implicated in bribery and corruption. Blatteris also a member of the International Olympic Committee. ''We highly respect this decision of President Blatter to step down and to initiate the necessary reforms, and to make way for a new leadership of FIFA to drive these changes," IOC P r esident Thomas Bach said in a statement.

Blatter joined FIFA in 1975 as technicaldirector for de-

velopment projects, was promoted to general secretary in 1981 and spent 17 years as right-hand man to Havelange of Brazil before being elected to lead world soccer. The new election will be overseen by Domenico Scala, chairman of FIFA's audit and compliance committee, who praised Blatter' s "difficult and courageous" decision. "This is the most responsible way to ensure an orderly transition," Scala said. "There is significant work to be done to regain the trust of the public."

NFL

Oakland's Donald Penn optimistic about 2015

Continued from PageC1 With the two high-profile head injuries in less than a week, the NBA is taking its turn in the concussion crosshairs that are more often focused on the NFL and NHL. The director of the league's concussion program, Dr. Jef&ey Kutcher, said the Warriors handledboth instances properly even though Thompson later was diagnosed with a

game with a concussion is too many. "That number is sufficient to make us all look at whether we want to risk a player's health for a game," she said. 'To say it happens so rarely or doesn' t happen frequently enough to change the rules is not enough. We' re talking potentially about someone's life. I don't think we should play an odds game when it comes to a player's life." When a player is suspected of having a possible concussion,team doctorsor athletic trainers test a player's shortterm memory and recall with cognitive tests, test balance and coordination, and make

Interim coach Tony Sparano, whom Penn vocally supported to keep the job, was not brought back. Instead, owner Mark Davis and general manager Reggie McKenzie revamped the coaching staff and hired Jack Del Rio, who in turn hired veteran offensive line coach Mike Tice. It didn't take long for Tice, a former NFL player and head coach, to win Penn over. "He makes sure we work when it's time to work," Penn said. "The best part is he really keeps the room loose and keeps it going. Each offensive line coach is difierent. Coach Tice has a different technique than coach Sparano did. I think we' re picking it up fast." The Raiders have been trying to adjust to the new schemes ofoffensive coordinator Bill Musgrave, despite starting quarterback Derek Carr being unable to fully participate in the OTAs.

Roberts said she was "morThompson was diagnosed tified" that Thompson had with the concussion last Fri- been cleared despitelater day and missed two days of being diagnosed with a conpractice. He returned to the cussion.

Thompson said he understands the difficulty of diagnosing concussions and felt fortunate that he ended up not playing after the injury. "It's tough because my adrenaline was high," he said. "I felt alert, I felt focused. They ul t i m ately made a great call not putting me back in." The Warriors are a l so

ger during the offseason and is being held out of all passing drills. The second-year quarterback has attended the workouts and even did some light throwing Tuesday but has yet to be cleared, leaving Christian Ponder to handle the first-team reps.

Del Rio didn't sound too concerned about Carr's situation and neither was Penn. "Derek knows this offense almost as good as the offensive coordinator," Penn said. "I have no worries in Derek. Derek still gets here, the first person in the morning. He needs to do what he's doing, take his time. He' ll be ready when he's ready and I tell him that all the time, there' s no rush." There is, however, an urgency to get Oakland's offensive line in order aker an offseason of change. The Raiders signed free agent center Rodney Hudson away from the Kansas City Chiefs, freeing up last year's starter, Stefen Wis-

niewski, to sign with Jacksonville. Additionally, Austin Howard is moving from right guard to right tackle while third-round draft pick Jon Feliciano and veteran Khalif Barnes will compete for the vacant right guard job. "We feel good about the 0line group, about the work they' re putting in," Del Rio said. "That left side with he and Gabe (Jackson) and then Rodney, that le side's very strong. I think the right side's going to be pretty good, too. I think he's done a nice job so far." Notes: Defensive tackle Dan Williams left practice early with a

why players are allowed back intogames beforedoctorshave definitively ruled out a concussion. Chris Nowinski, a co-director of the Center for the Study of Traumatic Encephalopathy at Boston University, said the fact that both Curry and Thompson didn't immediately get up after being hit should be considered a sign that they probably were concussed. "Doctorsat the professional level aren't considering oncourtsymptoms as partofthe concussion tests," Nowinski said."I faplayerpassesthetest despite the fact we know it' s far&om perfect,doctorsrarely feel confident enough to hold a playerout.The GMs and coaches just listen to the doctor and don't make a decision." Roberts knows talk of holding players out could be unpop-

ular among her constituents, who are often more concerned about staying on the court than their long-term health. And she's OK with that. "It's not for them to decide," Roberts said. 'They' re not doctors." The in-game system used in the NBA is similar to what happens infar riskier sports like the NFL and NHL. Head contactis far rarer — and much more visible — in basketball, so the risk of a scend blow is much lower. "We' re not evaluating the patient, putting him back in the game and say 'See you in the clinic next week, Kutcher said. 'We' re evaluating them

BRIEFS 49ers FBBruce Miller pleads contest

Giants lose 4th straight at home, fall to Bucs

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — San Francisco 49ers fullback B r uce M i l l er pleaded no contest Tuesday toa misdemeanor disturbing the peace charge stemming from an argu-

m ent w i t h his f o rmer fiancee that led to his arrest March 5. Santa Clara County prosecutors said that Miller smashed the woman' s cellphone. He must attend a 16-week domestic violence counseling course as part of his sentence.

The fif th-year pro is expected to rejoin the team for the Niners' remaining optional organized team activities this week and then participate in next week's mandatory minicamp, his agent, Jack Reale, said in a phone interview. The districtattorney's office said Miller and the

woman were arguing in a parking garage at the Rivermark Hyatt House in Santa Clara. The woman originally told police Miller pushed her out of the vehicle before he grabbed her cellphone from her and smashed it. In an interview later, the former fiancee — who refused medical attention and didn't sus-

tain visible injuries — said there had not been any physical contact. A witness saw Miller throw the phone, prosecutors said. Miller, 27, has been away from the 49ers during the offseason workout program at team headquarters in Santa Clara. He received a three-year

contract extension last year.

Michigan shuts out Florida 1-0 in WCWS O KLAHOM A CIT Y (AP) — Haylie Wagner hadn't started in more than two weeks. She was ready when called upon. The senior threw a com-

plete-game shutout, and Michigan beat Florida and ace Lauren Haeger 1-0 on Tuesday night in the Women's College World Seriesto force a deciding third game for the national championship. Wagner earned the start based on her overall play at the World Series, and she kept it going. On Tuesday, she threw a perfect seventh inning and struck out the final two batters to help the Wolverines (60-7) even the best-of-three series 1-1. Wagner is 3-0 at the W orld Series and h as thrown 20 innings without allowing an earned run. Kelsey Susalla's single knocked in Sierra Lawrence in the first inning for the game's only run. Haeger, the national player of the year, gave up only four hits, but she got no support and fell to 31-2 on the season.

of going to Triple-A Round Rock as planned this week. Gallo, chosen 39th overall as a supplemental pick in the June 2012 amateur draft, was hitting .314 with nine homers and 31 RBIs in 34 games for Double-A Frisco. After 40 homers combined in rookie ball and Low-A in 2013, Gallo set a Rangers minorleague record with 42 last year between High-A Myrtle Beach and Frisco. He was the first player since White Sox prospect Ron Kittle in 198182 with consecutive 40-homer season in the minors.

NHL 'Hawks try to secure dynasty against Lightning TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — The Chicago Blackhawks headed south this week to secure a dynasty, and the Tampa Bay Lightning are the only obstacleleft. Jonathan Toews and his teammates have raised the Stanley Cup twice in the past five seasons, compiling a wealth of b i g-game accolades in seven years as an elite team. They are just four wins away &om a third NHL title that would establish them as the most accomplished club of their era. The Blackhawks shrug 06' the weight of history, preferring to focus on the opener

of the Stanley Cup Final on Wednesday. 'You never want to rest on yourlaurels,"theChicago captain said Tuesday after practice at Amalie Arena. 'You want to keep creating new moments and new memories." The hungry Lightning look at Chicago's achievements and see everything they

you measure yourself against," Tampa B captain Steven Stamkos said. 'They' ve been on top for so long, it seems like they were always there." While the Blackhawks' roster is dominated by two-time champions, Valtteri Filppula is the Lightning's only player with a Stanley Cup ring. Most of Chicago's stars are still largely in their primes, but Tampa Bay has the youngest roster in the postseason. Chicago coach Joel Quenneville has two rings, while Tampa Bay's Jon Cooper has coached just two full NHL seasons. "We know they' re more experienced, but we' re still ex-

cited to be here," Tampa Bay forward Ondrej Palat said. "We' re going to do everything it takes to win the Stanley Cup." Here are the other key story lines to watch when the final gets underway on a hot, humid day in Florida: Speed kills: Chicago and Tampa Bay have many contrasts, but share an eye-catching similarity: They love to play fast, aggressive hockey. Patrick Kane and the Blackhawks make a habit of outskating teams to utilize their unmatched skill, but Tampa Bay's talented collection of young forwards is among the league's quickest. "I don' t know how fast you can get, but this will probably be as fast as it goes," Tampa Bay goalie Ben Bishop said. L imited n umbers: T h e Blackhawks' famed championship depth only goes so far. Chicago relied heavily on just four defensemen in the Western Conference finals, and Duncan Keith played aston-

ishingly heavy minutes in the series. It's illogical to think the heavy workload — and the pounding administered by the Ducks in the last round — will have no effect on Keith, Brent Seabrook, Johnny Oduya and Niklas Hjalmarsson, but not much is logical about Keith's brilliance. "I don't have a stopwatch out there, and I don't know what the times are," Keith said. "I' ve always played a lot of minutes." Who breaks out?: Neither team ascribes to the notion that top-end talent will decide the series. Both clubs' stars say secondary scoring will be crucial, and Chicago has a decided edge: Tampa Bay's top six forwards have scored 45 of its 55 playo6'goals, while Chicago has been more balanced. If complementary scorers chip in, here are two candidates on long skids: Tampa Bay's Ryan Callahan has one goal in 19 games after scoring 24 in the regular season, while Chicago's Brandon Bickell is goalless in 17 games after get-

ting 14 in the regular season. "Hopefully I' ve been saving them for this round," Bickell

Adams, the de facto defensive coordinator, will likely shift schemes — such as going under screens and overscreens,trapping orbacking off — several times each game to give James difFerent looks.

"They have multiple bodies that they can kind of put on me," James said, "but it doesn't affect what I need to do." The Warriors also want to limit the opportunit ies James creates for his teammates.

The number of assists he has might be just as important as how points he scores. Collapsing around him andleaving anotherplayeropen for a 3-pointer can be costly, which is why the Warriors are looking at the defensive plan as a "team challenge."
