Caltrans is proposing to build a traffic signal or roundabout at Yosemite Junction in hopes of improving safety and congestion at the busy intersection, where state highways 108 and 120 meet.

The Tuolumne County Transportation Council discussedthe proposalata m eeting Wednesday and unanimously approved a letter to Caltrans suggesting a third option that wouldn't involve traffic lights or a roundabout.

"This is the beginning of a longer process," said Tuolumne County Transportation Council Executive Director Darin Grossi. 'They are just laying out alternatives that will be considered in the design and environmental phase, which will occur next year.

"This allows them to secure the funding through the state budget ...to move forward with pr a ojectto look atthose alternatives. "

• PASS CLOSEDEbbettsPass on Highway 4 will close from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. today for pavement work, according to Caltrans.

The road will be closed from Highland Lake Road to Monitor Pass. Motorists are advised to take alternate routes and expect one-hour delays.

• PERFORMANCE SET —The Santa Clara Vanguard Drum and Bugle Corps, an award-winning nonprofit performing arts organization, will give a public performance at 7 p.m. today at the Bret Haite High School football field.

"This is not a fullblown concert with costumes and everything," said Corps Manager Charles Frost. "But we are going to do a community appreciation (performance)."

The Vanguard is a competitive junior drum and bugle corps based in Santa Clara and is a six-time Drum Corps International World Champion. Members of the Vanguard spent a week rehearsing in Weed before coming to Angels Camp on Monday, where they have rehearsed from 8:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. each day.

If Sonora Cat Rescue President Judith Rodan had one wish, it would be to spay and neuter enough of Tuolumne County's feline population so that the number of cats was equal to the number of available homes.

She's not waiting idly by for it to happen though. She works 70 to 80 hours a week to make that dream a reality.

"I think Judith Rodan is one of the most motivated, high-energy people I' ve known," said longtime Sonora veterinarian Dr. Wes Wittman, who is Rodan's vet. "That's a testament to the fact of what she's done to help Sonora Cat Rescue spay and neuter as many cats as she can."

In the past 12 months, Rodan and the catrescue have paid for 3,000 localcatstobe spayed orneutered.

When she started out as the rescue's president five years ago, the number was 300 to 400 cats being fixed each year.

Rodan makes one to three trips

a week to a nonprofit veterinary group in Auburn that will often give her the entire clinic for the day. It has to — she takes 75 catsata tim e.

The day starts at 3 a.m. and ends at 10 p.m., with Rodan loading and unloading 75 cat carriers, at eight pounds each, four times.

"I tell people I do 24,000 reps," Rodan said of the workout she gets while doing her "cat lady" duties.

"My record is 158 (cats fixed) in six days and three trips," Rodan said. "I was sick tired."

The trips also include a mountain

of paperwork. Each spay or neuter procedurerequireseightforms tobe filled out, she said.

"I'm getting good at forms," Rodan said.

Ironically, Rodan doesn't think of herself asa "catperson,"butrather a "dog and horse person."

Rodan grew up in the Bay Area town of Woodside in San Mateo County and had seven horses and several dogs. She had a career in sales, publicity and printing, which has come in handy for promoting the cat rescue and its endeavors.

It was while living in France many years ago that Rodan first be-

came interested in the issue of cat

overpopulation.

Her husband of 25 years, Simon Rodan, a professor, was attending university near Paris, and the couple lived in France for nearly nine years.

Judith Rodan was walking down the street one day and saw an older woman feeding a troupe of stray cats. In her broken French, Rodan told the lady how irresponsible it was to have too many cats. The lady proceeded to read Rodan the riot act, explaining to her she was trying to help the cats and how the strays needed to be fixed. It sparked something in Rodan, and her mission became bringingcatsjustice,she said.

Rodan got some of her university contacts who were veterinarians and started getting the French cats fixed.

When Rodan and her husband moved back to the states, they ended up retiring to Tuolumne County.

The two-hour forum held at Sonora Opera Hall was organized by the Tuolumne Utilities District and its hired consultant, Sentium Strategic Communications of El Dorado Hills.

Participants broke into groups to listen and ask questions of TUD Watermaster Eric Hall, TUD General Manager Tom Scesa, TUD Engineer Glen Nunnelley and Lisa Westbrook of TUD Public Relations.

Potential solutions, crafted by the TUD-organized Community Water Council, include improving the ditch system to increase efficiency, reducing water loss in piped systems, making the flume from the Main Canal out of Lyons more reliable, building new off-stream storage, and reviewing all reservoirs to increase capacity.

Sonora resident Robert Carabas asked Richard Wilson of Sentium Communications if costs and benefits could be included for potential solutions.

"It's hard to make a decision without know-

ing how much money's coming out of my pocket," Carabas said.

Two more forums are scheduled tonight and next week: • 6 to 8 p.m. today at Columbia Elementary, 22540 Parrotts Ferry Road • 6 to 8 p.m. June 18 at Tuolumne Memorial Hall, 18375 Fir Ave. The Community Water Council is grantsupported and facilitated by TUD. The council includes voting members representing TUD, Tuolumne County, City of Sonora, Twain Harte Community Services District, Cal Fire, Tuolumne Band of Me-Wuk Indians, Tuolumne County Master Gardeners, Tuolumne County Resource Conservation District, Columbia College, Sierra Club, Central Sierra Environmental Resource Center and Tuolumne County's Economic Development Authority.

Tuolumne Utilities District partnered with Sentium Communications in February to help with planning, management and production o f the Community Water Council. ~ d i n g includes a $7,500 public-engagement grant from the Davenport Institute, part of Pepperdine University's School of Public Policy.

The deadline for rating recommendations and submitting feedback is June 26. For more information or to complete a survey online, visit www.yourwaterchoices.corn.

NOTICE OFPACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY'S REQUEST TO CHANGE RATES FORELECTRICITY PRODUCTION IN 2016 AND THERETURN OF REVENUES FROM THE SALE OF GREENHOUSE GAS ALLOWANCES (A.15-06-001) Summary On June 1, 201 5,Pacific Gas attdElectric (PG&E)Company filed an application with the California Public Utilities Commission (Cpuo) requesting approval for the forecasted funding required in 2016 to obtain electricity on behalf of its customers.

In addition,PG&Ealso requests approval of forecasted revenues from the sale of emissions allowances associated with California's GreenhouseGas(GHG)reduction program. This application is referred to asthe 2016 Energy Resource Recovery Accountand Generation Non-bypassabl e Charges Forecastand Greenhouse Gas Forecast Revenue and Reconciliation (Application 15-06-001). ri approved, this application will change electrical rates and customers' electric bills effective January 2016. PG&E'sapplication primarily includes requests for approval of: 1. The forecasted recovery of $4.77 billion in electricity costs. These costs are associated with the fuel needed to produce electricity as well as the costs of buying electricity from third parties, such as renewable energy producers 2. The forecast spending of $0.8 million for administrative and outreach expenses associated with California's GHG reduction program 3. The return of $311 million to eligible customers from the sale of emissions allowances The use of all funds collected and the exact amounts of returned revenues from the GHG program may change and are subject to CpUCregulatory approval.

About the filing

The CpuC regulates and oversees all requests for any rate changes. pG&Ewould not profit from any of the requests in this application. The cost of energy is passed directly to PG&E's customers without any markup. If the CPUC approves the application, pG&Ewill begin to recover its costs in electric rates, effective January 1, 2016. At the sametime, pG&Ewill apply eligible GHGallowance revenue to rates because PG&Eis required to pass the revenue received from the sale of allowances on to its customers. This is done through rates and with California Climate Credits. The revenue will be returned to PGB E's residential, small business customers and some industrial customers, basedon legislative and Cpuc determined methods.

The GHGallowance revenue bill credits reduce the electric rate impacts of the GHGcosts. At the end of 2016, to ensure all funds are used on the customers' behalf, PG&Ewill compare the actual costs to produce and purchase energy against revenues collected from customers and will incorporate any differences in next year's application.

How will peaE's application affect me?

PG&E's request would result in a rate decrease for most customers. Altogether, PG&E proposes to reduce revenues collected from bundled service customers, those who receive electrical production, as well as transmission and distribution service

fromPG&E,by $322 million.

A table presenting a more illustrative description of the impact or this application was included in a bill insert announcing this filing that was sent directly to customers in the June 2015 billingcycle.

PeaEestimates that a typical residential customer using 500 kWhper monthwould see nochange in the average bill of SBB.30.Individual customers' bill will differ. Eligible residential customers will receivea California Climate Credit twice a year in April and October on their electricity bills of approximately $20.94.

How will peaE's application affect non-bundled customers?

Direct Access (DA)and Community Choice Aggregation (CCA)customers only receive electric transmission and distribution service from PG&E. Since PG&E does not obtain energy for these customers, PG8E'a application addresses the cost responsibility of DA customers and CCAcustomers that purchase electricity from another provider but transport it through pG&E's electrical system. Eligible DA attd CCAcustomers will receive GHGrevenues. The net impact of pGBE's application on DA and CCAcustomers is $63 million, or an average increase of 6.9 percent.

Another category of non-bundled customers ia Departing Load (DL) customers. These customers do notreceive electric generation, transmission or distribution services from PGB Efor their departing load. However, like DA and CCAcustomers, they are required to pay certain non-bypassable charges as required by law or Commission decision. The net impacton DL customers is -$0.4 million, or an average decrease of 1.4 percent.

missing man,Casey,found Lake opening new set for 3une 19 Body of Union Democrat staff

By ALEK MacLEAN The Union Democrat

June 19 is the new opening date for Twain Harte Lake, according to people who manage the private, members-only recreationalreservoir.

The date was moved up from June 27, because the lake is now full and excavation crews are putting the finishing touches on the remaining rock work, said Twain Harte Lake Association President Lynn Crook.

The exclusive lake is open only tothe association's 800 members or people renting

cabins from the members.

Twain Harte business owners say thetouristsit attracts are key to the town's economy in the summertime.

Cracking in t h e g r anite dome that anchors the lake's concretedam led to the draining of the reservoir last August.

Repairs to the dam and granitewere completed in late April with a $600,000 private loan that the association will pay back over the next five years.

Earlier estimates put the reservoir' s opening as far out as August due to the ongoing

four-yeardrought and lack of water to fill the lake.

Crookcreditsthelate-season storms in May with helping to fill the reservoir much earlier than originally anticipated. " It's kind o f l i k e T U D (Tuolumne Utilities District) with Pinecrest and Lyons spilling,"she said,referring to two reservoirs that were originally not expected to fill this summer."The storms just did a lot."

AUG 15, 1936 - JUNE 6, 2015

It is with great sadness that we wish to announce the passing of Marjorie Mac Mark, also known and loved by the world as Cappi. Born Marjorie Carbaugh in Barberton, Ohio, Cappi and her brothers spent their early years in an orphanage, where she developed the love of music and excelled as a pianist

and performer.

After her 1958 graduation from Northwestern University with a degree in music and a teaching credential, Cappi moved to California, where she met and married Donald Mark. She served for many years as an award-winning science teacher at Columbia Elementary School, where she also coached basketball and volleyball. Cappi also loved the outdoors, hiking, camping, exploring the wilderness, and instilling in her children a similar love of California's wild places. Her overarching passion, however, was flight; Cappi logged many hundreds of hours as a private pilot, later becoming a certified flight instructor, and in 1980, became co-owner of and pilot for a private commuter passenger service, Yosemite Airlines.

Returning to teaching in later years, Cappi served as the coordinator for the adult GED program at the Sierra Conservation Center, providing instruction and inspiration to adult inmates, an achievement for which she received a Certificate of Recognition from the California State Senate in 1994.

Never losing her love and enthusiasm for the outdoors, Cappi continued to indulge her passion for independent exploration — through skydiving, multi-week live-aboard scuba dive trips to the reefs and archipelagos and tiny island nations of the South Pacific; journeys of exploration to Alaska and Antarctica, and travel throughout the continental United States and to Hawaii and the Caribbean. Most recently, she served as a volunteer docent at the Columbia State Park.

Cappi passed away quietly in the early afternoon of June 6, surrounded by family and loved ones, after a brief but acute illness. She is survived by her brother Jim Carbaugh of Puyallup, Washington; her son Greg, of Sonora; and daughter, Laura, of Lakewood, Colorado.

Friends and loved ones are invited to attend a Celebration of Cappi's Life at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday, June 11, at the clubhouse, Marble Quarry Townhomes, 23685 Marble Quarry Road, in Columbia.

OUR VIEW

C

ln OC

eave 0 osaes Congressman Tom McClintock a week ago attempted to insert an amendment into the Fiscal Year 2016 Commerce, Justice, Science Appropriations Act that would solidify states' rights to regulate marijuana.

It seemed an unusual move for the staunch conservative congressman who represents the Mother Lode, but we appreciate his principled approach to the topic. Indeed, the regulation of marijuana should be left to the states, like laws regulating most other criminal activity.

Amendment to H.R. 2578 — "State Regulation of Marijuana" — ended up failing on a 206-22 vote.

McClintock made the following remarks on the House floor June 3:

•

•

Mr. Chairman:

This amendment is NOT an endorsement of marjiuana.

I' ve never used it; my wife and I raised our children never

to use it. And I believe local schools should assure that every American is aware of the risks and dangers that it

poses.

This amendment addresses a larger question: whether the Federal government has the constitutional authority to dictate a policy to states on matters that occur strict-

ly within their own borders. I believe that it does not. And even if it does, I believe that it should not.

In 1932, Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis describedthe beauty of the Tenth

GUEST COLUMN 'l®, Mc C lintock

Amendment this way: "A state may, if its citizens choose, serve as a laboratory; and try novel social and economic experiments without risk to the rest of the country."

That's exactly what states like Colorado and Oregon have done with legalization, and what many more have

done with aspects of it. They believe that the harm that might be done by easier access to this drug is outweighed

by the benefits of removing the violent underground economy that prohibition has caused.

I don't know if they are right or wrong. But I'd like to

find out; and their experience will inform the rest of us.

The federal government has legitimate authority to

protect neighboring states by forbiddingtransportacross state lines, which this amendment protects. But at t he same time, it protects the right o f a state's citizens to make

this decision within their own boundaries.

It is not necessary for us to debate federal policy over marjiuana because this amendment does not change federal policy in any legitimate federal jurisdiction. The arguments we hearfrom opponents ought to be made in state legislatures.

This amendment does not affect our marijuana laws in federal districts or territories; it does not affect our laws involving interstate commerce or over federal land or over the importation ofmarjiuana from abroad.

It only affectsjurisdiction that is strictly and solely the rightful province of the states as pertains to affairs strictly

and solely conducted within their own borders.

The question is over the right o f their people to have these debates, to make these decisions, and for the rest of the nationto observe and benefrt from their outcome for good or ill.

We either believe in the Tenth Amendment or we do not.

We either believe in Federalism or we do not. We either

believe in Freedom or we do not.

YOUR VIEWS Climbersshouldbuy their owninsurance To the Editor: It may be "unrealistic to collect huge debts from people who are badlyinjured or dead",butwe alreadyhave societalsolutions for this problem.

We require all auto drivers to carry insurance so the common-

wealth doesn't have to pick up the tab. We require motorcyclists to wear helmets because the rest of us were subsidizing the costs of care for head trauma to uninsured riders.

Why not require climbers in Yosemite tobuy a $5 or $10 shortterm insurance policy when they get a permit to camp and/or climb in the park?

If such a thing were offered and they refuse, it is entirely reasonable forthe state to seek reimbursement for the costs of rescue and medical care for an injured

Thoughts on fight over federal lands The federal government owns large chunks of the West. It owns 65 percent of Utah, 69 percent of Alaska and 83 percent of Nevada. Some Westerners see unfairness in that. They should not.

Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska recently slipped an item into a nonbinding budget resolution, calling on the federalgovernment todispose ofallits land other than the national parks and monuments.

That would put U.S. national forests and wildlife refuges — from the Arctic to the Everglades — up for grabs. The Senate narrowly passed it.

Three years ago, Utah's Republican governor, Gary Herbert, demanded that the federal government turn millions of its acres over to his state. Just like that.

Thing is, the land is not Utah's to take. Federal lands do have an owner, the people of the United States. Those acresbelong as much to residents of New Jersey and Ohio as they do to the folks in Salt Lake City.

Has anyone asked you whether you want to give away federal land? Me, neither.

Some insist that the laws creating the Westernstates required the federal government to hand over much of the land it retained. Not so, says University of Utahlaw professor Robert Keiter.

On the contrary. The Utah Enabling Act stated that the inhabitants of the proposedstatehad to "forever disclaim all right and title to the unappropriated public lands lying within the bound-

MAIN OFFICE 209-532-71 51• 209-736-1 234 84 S. Washington St. Sonora, CA 95370

tution and subsequent Supreme Court

cases hold that the U.S. keeps public lands in trust for all Americans. The government may keep, sell or give away the land — as well as decide what may be done on it.

Even if the federal government were obligated to unload that land, Keiter writes, "that obligation does not require the federal government to give land to the states."

Sales of federally owned land should go to the highest bidder, with the proceeds dropped in the U.S. Treasury.

Ifthe state ofUtah cares to participate in the auction, good luck to it.

In reality, the federal government has,over the years, disposed of many millions of its acres — some sold, some given to homesteaders, some handed to the states.

W esternstatesdidn't care about this mostly parched land until the feds started building huge irrigation projects in the 1920s.

Many states, including Utah, actually refusedoffers of public lands because they didn't want to lose federal reclamation funds, mineral revenue and highway money.

Federal ownership does have its advantages.

About 330 million acres of federal lands areused for grazing cattle and sheep.

Rancherslast year paid only $18.5 million in fees to use that land, whereas the fedsappropriated $144 million for the grazingprograms, according to a Center for Biological Diversity study.

"Had thefederalgovernment charged the averageprivate forage market rate for non-irrigated lands in the western states," the study says, "grazing receipts would havebeen on average $261 million, greatly exceeding annual appropriations."

The oil and gas industries operating on public lands currently enjoy discountedroyalty rates, courtesy of the U.S. taxpayer. We really ought to be charging them market rates.

Ronald Reagan famously said of the Panama Canal, "We built it. We paid for it. It's ours."

How did the federal government originally obtain title to the Western lands?

Through treaties with France, Britain and Mexico."

So American taxpayers did indeed pay for that land and made it more fruitful. That's why it's ours, all of ours.

Oil spill cleanup reaches $62 million GOLETA — The cost of cleaning up the oil spill that fouled beaches last month on the California coast has reached $62 million so far, the pipeline company said Wednesday.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Soda and some other sugary drinks contribute to health problems, San Francisco supervisors said as they voted unanimously to approve health warnings on ads for such beverages.

The soda industry said it might sue to block the ordinance, while supporters said they will seek to expand it beyond the city.

It's believed San Francisco would be the first place in the country to inquire such warning if the Board of Supervisors gives a second approval and the mayor allows it to go into effect.

Efforts for a statewide warning failed this year, as did a city ballot measure lastyear toim pose a tax on sugary drinks.

The ordinance defines sugar-sweetened beverages as drinks with more than 25 calor iesfrom sweeteners per 12 ounces. Advertising for such sodas as Coca-Cola Zero and other no-calorie

drinks would not require a warning, but ads for regular Coca-Cola would.

The ordinance also requires warnings for other products such as sports and energy drinks, vitamin waters and iced teas that exceedthe 25-calorie limit. Milk and 100 percent natural fruit and vegetable

VATICAN CITY (AP)Pope Francis took the biggest step yet to crack down on bishops who cover up for priests who rape and molest children, creating a new tribunal inside the Vatican to hear cases of bishops accused of failing to protect their flock.

The initiative, announced Wednesday, has significant legal and theological implications, since bishops have long been considered m asters oftheir dioceses and largely unaccountable when they bungle their job, with the Vatican stepping in only in cases of gross negligence.

While Ryan said the health law "is busted," Rep. Sander Levin of Michigan, the top Democrat on the committee, said the only thing broken is the GOP attack line on the law.

The feline overpopulation problem is huge, she said.

The problem is, because kittens go into their first heat sooner than historically normal, they are getting pregnant before owners think it's time to fix them, Rodan explained.

It used to be that one would spay or neuter their cat at six months old. Now, it should be done at four months old, Rodan said. She's seen even younger cats get pregnant this year.

Many people can't afford to fix their cat and, when it becomes pregnant, they either dump the cat in a field or they dump the kittens, she said.

That's where Rodan and her network of cat rescue members come in.

"Anyone who thinks there is not a horrific problem is invited to visit our kitten graveyard," Rodan said.

However, Ayala felt that building traffic signals or a roundabout would create other safety and congestion issues due to traffic being forced to makea complete stop.

"I think there's a lot of operational advantages with the third alternative," he said. "It would make the turn lane (on the westbound side) longer, so hopefully it would be better delineated than it is now."

Caltrans'goal is to complete the project within the next two years, Grossi said.

The project design and environmental review phase is slated to begin after July 1.

County tra n sportation planners and road engineers will participate in quarterly meetings with Caltrans to discuss the project and make recommendations.

The extent to which Pendley will work with Bowden is undetermined.

As a consultant, Pendley will be under the direction of Bowden and the board and will not assume any responsibilities of the superintendent/principal, according to the agreement.

People suffer heat-related illness when their bodies cannot cool quickly enough. The body cools itself by sweating. Sometimes sweating isn't enough to cool the body, causing the body temperature to rise very quickly, the Calaveras County Public Health Department said. Very high body temperatures can damage important organs.

Someone who develops dizziness, headache, fiushed skin or nausea could have heat illness (heat exhaustion), according to the Tuolumne County Public Health Department.

If someone has these symptoms and they don't recover quickly, they should call their doctor.

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 h@uniondemocrat.corn

The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be:20900 SCATTERGOOD ROAD SONORA, CA 95370 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be held, but without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, condition, or encumbrances, including fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust, to pay the remaining principal sums of the note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property.

You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The saledate shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (800) 280-2832 or visit this Internet Web site WWW.AUCTION.COM, using the file number assigned to this case 002514-CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. FOR SALES INFORMATION: (800) 280-2832 Publication Dates: 5/28/2015, 6/4/2015, 6/11/2015.

DEAR BOSSIER CITY: Your responsewas by farthe most popular one we received. We appreciate all who sent in their personal preferences. Here are a few samples: FROM PAY: Your response was masterful. Another retort (not original to me) would be: "If people ask you, tell them you don't know." And a gentler response: "I'm hurt by your question."

EL PASO: In my opinion, a better answer to this question is: "Well, I guess that's really between my husband and me. Don't you agree?"

R.: I would simply say, "Yes, it was planned, but if we plan another, should we inform you first?" There seem to be more ignorant and stupid people in today's world, and they have no 61ters between their brains and mouths.

P.:When asked, "Was this pregnancy planned," I would say, "I give up. Was it?" I have used this more times than I

can say, and it always works.

MOTHER OF TWINS:I would simply ask, "Were you?"

TYLER, TEXAS:Someone could reply, "It was more planned than the question you just asked!"

SALISBURY, PA.:I' ve found this response works: "Why in the world would you ask such a personal question? It' s rude, and you' re normally not a rude person. Are you feeling OIP.' Whenever you end with a question, the other person feels compelled to answer. So throw it back in their court, and watch 'em squirm. They deserve a little squirming.

Consider function when choosing treatment DEAR DR. ROACH:The literature on Avodart use for benign prostatic hyperplasia mentions that only 1 percent of men taking it experience sexual difficulties. Are there ongoing or recent studies on Avodart use that would explain diminished climax response in an otherwise healthy senior adult male? As an alternative, what is the percent of YURP patients who have significant loss of sexual performance and/or incontinence? — Anon.

ANSWER: Avodart (dutasteride), like Proscar (finasteride), is effective for many men with enlarged prostate symptoms, but it certainly can have side effects. I have seen many men with sexual function problems (including erection, libido and ejaculation), and think the incidence is a lot higher than 1 percent. Most literature I found stateda 4 to 6 percent risk ofsexual dysfunction, but one trial found it as high as 13.8 percent.

e8'ects. Depending on the type of TURP procedure, between 17 and 40 percent of men reported a worsening in sexual function after surgery. In most cases, the differences were small, with less than 10 percent of men having newonset erectile dysfunction. However, retrogradeejaculation (backward into the bladder) can happen in up to twothirds of men. A difFerent study on what is best (men were randomized to surgery,medication and laser procedure) found that surgery was best for preserving sexual function.

COLOGNE, Germany (AP) — Five days after beating the Netherlands for the first time, the United States defeated Germany in Germany for the first time.

The Americans could not be more confident heading into next month's CONCACAF Gold Cup. "It makes us world champions, rig h t'7' goalkeeper Brad Guzan joked after Wednesday night' s 2-1 victory over the Germans.

Bobby Wood, whose 90thminute goal Friday gave the US. a 4-3 win in Amsterdam, scored in the 87th minute for the improbable victory in an exhibition against the nation that won last year's World Cup. U.S. captain Michael Bradley passed to Brad Evans, wide on the right flank, and Evans made a 25-yard diagonal pass to Wood, who had entered in the 74th minute. Wood trapped the balljust outside the arc,

A's win in 9th on Reddick's hit OAKLAND (AP)For one night in a rough season, Sam Fuld and the Oakland Athletics enjoyed some of that old walkoff magic that used to define this club.

Fuld slid into home to just beat the throw for the winning run with one out in the ninth on Josh Reddick's grounder, and the A' s snapped a four-game losing streak with a 5-4 victory against the Texas Rangers on Wednesday night.

Reddick received one of those celebratory whipped cream piesin the face he has regularly doled out in recent years.

Fuld was overdue for a hit, period.

He hit a one-out single off Keone Kela (43) for just his eighth hit in 80 at-bats and stole second. Fuld advanced on Billy Burns' infield single and shortstop Elvis Andrus held the ball rather than throwing to third.

Reddick followed with a sharp grounder that second baseman Adam Rosales fielded and threw home just barely too late. It marked Reddick's fifth career game-ending RBI. Oakland's comeback spoiled a 10-strikeout night by Texas starter Yovani Gallardo.

Billy Butler hit a tying singleoff TannerScheppers in the eighth after Oakland scored another run on third baseman Joey Gallo's throwing error.

Tyler Clippard (1-3) pitched a perfect ninth for the win.

Mitch Moreland hit a pair of RBI singles as Texas lost for only the 13th time on the road.

A's starter Jesse Hahn lasted just 3 2-3 innings and hit three batters.

Hahn plunked Choo in the right upper back to load the bases with none out in the third.

Prince Fielder followed with a sacrifice fly.

Hahn also hit Leonys Martin in the third and Fielder in the fourth.

The three hit batsmen m atched an Oakland record done eight times previously and first since Barry Zito on Apdil 15, 2005.

a 23-yard shot on a hop past goalkeeper Ron-Robert Zieler.

"I think we did that like 20 times yesterday," Wood said.

"It's kind of funny that it happened that exact way."

It was just the scend international goal for the 22-yearold from Hawaii, whose German club, Erzgebirge Auehas, was relegated to the third division during a season in which he was slowed by injury.

The US. had lost its previous two games against the Germans in Germany: 4-2 in 2002 and 4-1 in 2006.

The Americans survived a scare in injury time, when Sami Khedira bounced a header off the crossbar.

"It's such a monumental win for us as a country and a federation," Guzan said.

"It's important that we build some momentum going into the GoldCup. We know ultimately this summer is about us winning the Gold Cup. That's our No. 1 goal."

The Americans won the 2013 Gold Cup title and would earn a berth in the

Confederations Cup if they win this year's tournament.

If another nation wins, it would meet the U.S. in a playofFfor the Confederations Cup spot.

Mario Goetze put the topranked Germans ahead in the 12th minute.

Mx Diskerud tied the score for the 27th-ranked US. in the 41st minute when he ran into a precise 20-yard pass from Bradley, and with the laces ofhis outstretchedright bootkicked it infrom about 6 yards.

That culnnnated a 30-pass, 90-second sequence.

"We should have scored a second. We lost pace through a lot of substitutions in the second half. The

result is frustrating, but we

can live with that," Loew said. 'The Americans have improved a lot over the past couple of years."

Summerville found the end zone nine times, while Sonora entered the promised land seven times. With no blitzing linebackers, or defensive linemen trying to disrupt the play, the quarterbacks were given time and a clear window to make their throws.

Each team was given a series of 15 plays on offense, and then turn around andplay defense.Each team ran 45 offensive plays. With the ball in the Bears hands first, senior quarterback Jake Fulkerson marched the ball down the field and connected with senior receiver JT McCready for a 25-yard score. McCready hauled in two more scores from Fulkerson of 1 and 4 yards.

aWe expect a lot out of McCready,"

Leveroos said. 'When we set the bar high for a kid, we come out here and expect things from him, and then we want more. He did great today. Do we expect more from him? Yes." Fulkerson found sophomore McCormic Banks in the end zone for one of the Bears nine scores.

Fulkerson ended his day going 12 for 22 with six touchdown passes and one interception. Asides from connecting with McCready and Banks, he also found senior tight end Kenney Warnock open down the seam, and Jake Noonen down the sideline.

Rodgers finished 11 for 23 with three touchdown passes. He connected with McCready, junior Alex Prevost, and 6-foot-3 senior Cole Brewster. Summerville quarterbacks

combined were 23-45 with n i ne touchdowns. Leveroos has a long way to go before naming a starting signal caller.

"I knew that going into tonight wouldn't dictate a starting quarterback, and it still hasn' t," Leveroos said. aWe have a good problem. We have two good quarterbacks who both want to be the starter. Both of them have work to do and it will be who puts us in the best position with belief. You have to believe and that usually comes through execution."

Returning starting quarterback Sammy Page showed he had a strong control of the Sonora offense. Page nickeled and dimed the Summerville defense, and hit the long pass when it was there.

The Warriors didn't even go to the gym before Game 4 in Memphis, instead watching two hours of film in a hotel ballroom when the players weren't on the course.

It's not about how many

shots Curry makes or misses.

Nor about his assist-to-turnover ratio. No one is talking about LeBron's inefficiency, instead prepping the sketches for his carving on the NBA's Mount Rushmore.

This is about Curry playing as if he knows he belongs in that elite class of players. The Warriors need him to impose his will on the Cavaliers. Now more than ever, in this crucial Game 4, the Warriors need Curry to be the Baby-Faced Assassin. And not wait until they' re down 20 points.

"I challenge myself," Curry said Wednesday. "I do have to play better and play more consistent and do more to help our team win."

BRIEFS US ignoring former coach's comments WINNIPEG, Manitoba (AP) — The US. national team is dismissing critical comments that

i)~ ' ~®f

former coach Pia Sundhage made a bout s ome of t h e team's players.

The United States is preparing to face Sundhage's current t e a m, Sweden, in a group-stage match Friday at the Women's World Cup. Sundhage spoke about U.S. players including forward Abby W ambach and midfie lder Carli Lloyd to The New York Times in a story publishedTuesday.

Sundhage coached the U nited States for fi ve years, guiding the team to a pair of Olympic gold medals as well as the final of the 2011 World Cup in Germany, which the United State lost to Japan on penalty kicks.

In the Times, Sundhage said Lloyd was a challenge and suggested that she wouldn't start Wambach at this point in the popular veteran's career. She also praised defender Christie Rampone as the best captain she's ever seen, including herself.

Sundhage said goalkeeper Hope Solo was one of the most challenging players she'd coached "especially when it comes to trouble."

Defender Lori Chalupny was asked if the U.S. team would use the comments as m otivation F r i day night.

"I think when you' re in the World Cup, there's no extra motivation needed,"

Chalupny said.

Blackhawks edge Tampa Bay2-1 CHICAGO (AP) Brandon Saad drove the net and had the puck poked away by Andrei V asilevskiy. When h e somehow found it again, Saad gave it a desperate backhand whack that just happened to send it right between Va s ilevskiy's moving pads.

Saad refused much credit for hi s t iebreaking goal in Game 4 of the

Stanley Cup Final. He knows that a few fortunate bounces have been the only differences in four games between the Chicago Blackhawks and the Tampa Bay Lightning, who seem determined to take this championship seriesdown to a fantastic finish.

Saad scored with 18:38 to play, and captain Jonathan Toews got his first goal ofthe series as the B lackhawks beat t h e Lightning and their rookie goalie 2-1 Wednesday night, knotting the Final at twogames apiece.

The 22-year-old Saad's latest clutch goal was the ofFensive highlight of a gritty, defense-dominated night at the United Center. Corey Crawford and the 20-yearold Vasilevskiy, the Lightning's surprise starter, both had stellar moments before Saad beat his fellow youngster for the winner.

Chaos reigned again in the final minute for Crawford, who capped his 24 saves with a frantic last stand. Lightning captain Steven Stamkos had two golden chances to force overtime, but the Blackhawks survived.

The series is now a bestof-three, with C h icago needing at least one more win at Amalie Arena to secure its third Stanley Cup banner in six seasons.

Tampa Bay has home-ice advantage, but a fraction of the Blackhawks' big-game credentials.

Despite their differences in experience, these teams are incredibly close: This is the first Final since 1968 in which each of the first four games was decided by one goal. Faced with the prospectofa 8-1 series deficit, the Blackhawks responded with championship grit.

Mark Hottman/Milwaukee Journal Sentinel/TNS

San Francisco Giants second baseman Joe Panik (12) is congratulated by teammate Nori Aoki after hitting a tworun homer May 27, in Milwaukee. Panik drove in Aoki in the first inning Wednesday with his sixth home run of the season in the Giants win over the New York Mets.

"I definitely got the nohitter conversation out of the way in the first," Hudson said with a smile. "There definitely wasn't any drama from that area like there was last night."

Panik led off the sixth with a single. Angel Pagan followed with a walk and, after falling behind 0-2, Posey calmly stroked a fastball into right for the tying double.

Posey came into the game batting .368 against Harvey.

Belt then drove a changeup the other way to left-center for his eighth homer of the year, putting the Giants ahead 6-4.

"In my second at-bat, I got a swinging bunt off (a changeup)," Belt said. "So I runs on t h r e e fi r st-inning figured he'd throw it again, hits, punctuated by Wilmer so I stayed back on it just Flores' two-run single off enough."

Buster Posey had three RBIs, including a two-run double off Harvey that tied the score in the sixth. Belt followed with a two-run shot, and Justin Maxwell added a long homer later in the inning to give San Francisco a 7-4 lead.

The offensive display was in support of Tim Hudson (45), who allowed eight hits as he pitched into the sixth inning. With the victory, Hudson has alternated wins and lossesover hislast seven decisions.

"They picked m e up against a really good pitcher," Hudson said. "It was kind of a grind for me most of the night. I was a little out of sorts."

One night after rookie teammate Chris H e ston threw a no-hitter, Hudson didn't have the same magic on the mound against the Mets.

THINGS WE L AT POCONO

SPEED FREAKS 3 questions we had to ask —ourselves

AssociatedPress/DERIK HAMILTON

Brian France, left, knows not even the "Driver's Council" can make everyone happy all the time.

Does Pocono start a winning trend for Truex?

You' re telling us Brian France

ROB'S RAMBLINGS: I want to say, "No," that

has a goodpoint?

you can't stay hot forever.

Yes I am. We know how easy it is to take shots at those in charge, especially in a game like NASCAR. Someone, somewhere,always is frustrated, and it's easy to blame "The Man."

Then I remember Harvick has been in the top two 10 of 14 races. So yes, he' ll go into the Chase with two or three.

KEN'S CALL: He broke the seal on Victory Lane, so yes, I'm thinking a few more in the next two moths.

Not this time?

On Sunday at Pocono, France said the new "driver's council" isn't likely to trigger changes that' ll improve the on-track product in a way everyone will be happy, because (here' s his good point) what's good for one

Big picture: ls Truex a championship possibility?

driver isn't necessarily good for others. "They can't agree because they' re competing with one another," France said.

ROB'S RAMBLINGS:Still rooting for a non-winner to take the Chase title, but you certainly have to throw him into the mix.

KEN'S CALL: Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

This year's championship

So what happens?

It' ll continue as it has since Bar-

ney Oldfield's senior prom. Good Associated Press/DERIK HAMILTON

belongs to Jimmie or Harvick.

Even Martin Truex Jr. might have been wondering when he was going to break through.

Who's our next first-time winner in 2015?

1. It was a matter of time

2. Lost chance for Gordon

3. Runner-up, take 8

Sooner of later, you knew the "W" was coming for Martin Truex Jr., and Sunday was his day. He has been on fire lately and, after this race, has led the most laps in the past four Sprint Cup races. Talk about momentum. "Right now, I feel we' re as good as anyone out there," Truex said after his win.

This was a two-race stretch where there was much hope for a Jeff Gordon win in his final season. After all, he has 11 wins at the last two tracks, Dover and Pocono. But it wasn't to be. Gordon led just one lap and never really contended in the race, slipping back tomid-pack by the end.

Gordon finished 14th.

This is getting ridiculous.

Kevin Harvick's propensity to finish as the runner-up continued, marking the eighth time in 14 races this season he has finished second. Don't forget, Harvick also has two victories, which makes him 10 of 14 in finishing in the top two this season.

ROB'S RAMBLINGS:Jeff Gordon at Indianapolis.

That's an easy one.

KEN'S CALL: I'm going with AJ Allmendinger at

Sonoma in a few weeks.

RYAN NEWMAN VS.AJ ALLMENDINGER: AJ said he lost grip, Ryan got wrecked, Ryan got snippy and vowed payback.
