Merced Irrigation District is required to release water for fish populations downstream.

On Wednesday, McClure was about 13 percentfull,according tothe state Department of Water Resources. The original Exchequer Dam, built in 1926 andnormally submerged by the reservoir, was standing fully exposed behind New Exchequer Dam, built in 1967.

"The old dam has been exposed only a handful of times, in the '70s and the '90s," said Merced Irrigation District spokesman Mike Jensen, standing on the crest of New Exchequer, 879 feet above sea level. cWe always have wet years and dry years, but having four dry years in a row is crazy," Jensen said.cWe filled it and spilled it in 2011.

All the water is going downstream for fish."

Merced Irrigation District staff are doingtheir bestto keep McClure water accessible for Lake Don Pedro CSD customers, Jensen said. But Federal Energy Regulation Commission officials have yet to respond to a recent request from Merced ID to change minimum pool and outflow requirements.

That means Lake Don Pedro CSD pumps floating on McClure near Barrett Cove could be shut off as early as mid-August, district General Manager Pete Kampa said earlier this week.

"They' re in a difficult situation, and we' re trying to work with them.

"Meanwhile, our Merced Irrigation District growers aren'tgetting a drop out of Lake McClure, and they are," Jensen said. "Lake Don Pedro CSD peopleare still getting water out of McClure."

Before sundown Wednesday, more

than 50 people showed up at the Lake Don Pedro CSD meeting at Don Pedro High. The district's increasingly limited water supply topped the agenda.

Kampa sat with board members Chuck Day, Danny Johnson, Emery Ross, and board secretary Syndic Marchesiell o as he addressed people seated in bleachers in the high school gymnasium.

"The main thing to know here is thatinFebruary we gottoa very,very bad situation, with only 22 feet of water below our pumps on McClure," Kampa said. 'Then, between February and May, we had some storms, some snowmelt, and we gained a lot of water, to about 80 feet below our pumps, enough to get us into October, into winter, and hope for more rain and snow."

Kampa displayed a bar graph on a projector screen showing availability

Lake Don Pedro CSD staff have pursued and exhausted all opportunitiesto get water out ofother reservoirs, including nearby Don Pedro Reservoir, Kampa said.

"Getting water out of someone else's lake is just impossible now," Kampa said. "So we' re focused on new groundwater wells. For an estimated cost of around $2 million, we' re pursuing four new wells, at $500,000 apiece. We need 350 gallons a minute.

If we all conserve water, the tanks will stay full and the fire hydrants will stay charged."

District contractors drilled nine testholesforwellsat$14,000foreach hole, Kampa said. They found three good wells, and staff have identified a fourth well on a property that puts out 100 gallons per minute.

"The state is going to require us to keep the system charged up," Kampa said, referring to adequate water pressure throughout the district's delivery system. "Otherwise we' re looking at $1.2 million a month to pay a dozen drivers around the clock trucking in water. The district does not have that kind of money."

The district identified an additional $400,000 ingrant funding through the state Department of Water Re-

" "Then, the first week of June, the federalgovernment told Merced Irrigation District they could not allow us to draw water below minimum pool, so now we' re down to 12 feet of usable water below our pumps," Kampa said. "In the next few weeks, the lake level is going to drop off, and by midAugust it's expected we will not be

That still leaves the district at least $200,000 short of having all four wells and a water treatment plant fully funded.

"We' re waiting for the funding to come in," Kampa said. cWe hope to

Downtown Sonora

Five arrested during Washington Street paving planned Angels Camp DUI saturation patrol

By ALEX MacLEAN The Union Democrat

A projectto repave a nearly one-mile stretch of South Washington Street in Sonora is scheduled to begin Monday night.

George Reed Inc., based in Jamestown, was awarded the contract for the project by the Sonora City Council at a June 1 meeting. The project involves repaving South Washington Street from Stockton Road to 1,000 feet south of Hospital Road, as well as portions of Restano Way, Stewart Street and Mono Way. City Engineer Gerard Fuccillo said work throughout the duration of the project will be done from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m.

Sunday nights through Friday mornings, to avoid impacting traffic during the daytime. No work will be done Friday nights through Sunday evenings.

Heavy-noise work will be completed earlier in each shift, he added.

The first week starting Monday night involvespreparing the streetforpaving, which includes pavement grinding, lowering of utility and storm manholes and replacing traffic signal detector loops at the Restano Way signal systems.

Fuccillo said the second week is scheduled to commence at 7 p.m. June 28 and will involve the paving portion of the project. The work is scheduled to be completedby 7 a.m. July 2,ahead ofthe July 4 weekend.

There will temporary striping in place until the final striping is completed during the week ofJuly 12.

Traffic control during the night work will consist of flaggers and possible detours. Drivers may be subject to lengthy delays at times to accommodate construction.

pensive rubberized asphalt for a portion of the repaving, because studies show it can last longer than concrete asphalt.

A portion of the funding for the nearly $800,000 projectcomes from the Regional Surface Transportation Program through the Tuolumne County Transportation Council, while the rest will nearly wipe out the city's reserves for streetimprovement projects.

The city was approved by the TCTC last week for an additional $57,500 in RSTP funding to repave sections of Norlin Street that haven't been paved since the 1980s, as wellas$25,000 to conduct a feasibility study on a possible crosswalk at the Stewart Street and Restano Way intersection.

City Administrator Tim Miller said the study still needs to be completed, but the crosswalk could be added to the Norlin Street project in the future.

A 950-footsection of the street was last paved by Caltrans before the city took it over in 1991, Fuccillo told the City Council earlier this month.

Dennis Spisak deserves recognition for his incredible arrogance in attempting to re-gain a seat on the board of the Twain Harte Community Services District, which he helped bring so much embarrassment.

As reportedlastweek, Spisak leftthe board in 2003 after a sexual harassment complaint was filed by the district's then-finance director, Yvonne Hilton.

Spisak has variously claimed he resigned for health reasons and because he accepted a position on a local school board. However, legal documents and common sense would suggest it was to end the complaint.

Like the antagonist in a B-rung horror film, he returned in 2006 to seek reelection. He had second thoughts when told the district would need to reopen its investigation of the complaint if elected.

Again in 2010, when Hilton was still an employee, he sought appointment. He backed down when again confronted with the investigation's reopening.

Spisak Spisak apparently saw a new opportunity with the departure of Hilton and the settlement of a sexual harassment and wrongful termination

lawsuit she filed against the district over the behavior of Spisak and some other district board members and other employees. That settlement, reached in April, costthe district$250,000.

Spisak pulled his most recent application (to fill a seat emptied when Packy Maxwell stepped down) at the last minute, saying he was informed he'd have a confiict if also serving on the Summerville High board. It went to Bill McManus instead.

It's nice Spisak feels he still has something to add to the Twain Harte CSD board. But he's brought the district enough trouble and should take a hint.

White House spokesman Josh Earnest dismissed it as a procedural snafu, and it was — but not in the way he meant.

None other than President Obama was running this locomotive, and GOP congressional leaders Mitch McConnell and John Boehner were the chief freight handlers.

Mr. Speaker: Trade means prosperity. In any trade, both sides go away with something of greater value to themselves — or the trade wouldn't take place. More markets for American products mean more

jobs and higher wages for American workers. More products entering our economy mean more consumer choices and lower prices.

Trade agreements make trade possible. But the authority to effectively negotiatetrade agreements lapsed years ago, handicapping America ever since.

This is not some new power: it just restoresthesame negotiatingprocessthat has served us well since the 1930's.

Balcony collapse due to rotted wood BERKELEY — The balcony collapse that killed six collegestudents appears to have been caused by rotted wooden beams, Berkeley's mayor said Wednesday as the victims' heartbroken loved ones began arriving in the U.S. from Ireland.

Mayor Tom Bates said investigatorsbelieve the wood was not caulked and sealed properly at the time of construction and was damaged by moisture as a result.

The crowded fifth-floor balcony broke off an apartment building during a 21st-birthday party early Tuesday held by visiting Irish college students, dumping 13 people 50 feet onto the pavement. In ad-

dition to the six killed, seven were seriously hurt.

Amazon eyes drone delivery WASHINGTON — Borrowing a pizza delivery motto, online retail giant Amazon told Congress Wednesday it is developing the technology to use drones to deliver packages in 30 minutes or less, a broad expansion of unmanned flight that is raising concerns about safety, security and privacy.

Using commercial drones to quickly deliver packages is probably years away. But when government regulations catch up with emerging technologies, it could revolutionize the way people shop for items they need quickly, said Paul E. Misener, vice president of global public policy for Amazon.corn.

The Federal Aviation Administrationproposed rules in February that would severelyrestrictthe use ofcom mercial drones. The House panel held a hearing Wednesday on their economic potentialas wellas concerns about safety and privacy.

FAA's proposed rules would require operators to keep commercial drones within eyesight at all times, which significantly limits the distance they can fly. The restriction probably would prevent drone delivery as proposed by Amazon.

Boys rescueyoung children from fire OAKLAND, Fla. — Two grade school boys who rescued a toddler and a baby from a fire say they didn' t think twice about going into a burning home.

Ten-year-old Isiah Francis and 11-year-old Jeremiah Grimes say they were watching You Tube and playing video games Tuesday when they smelled smoke coming from the home of Jeremiah's neighbors.

Isiah said Wednesday that he ran next door first and found the children's father outside, searching for water to extinguish the flames.

Isiah ran into the mobile home and found the children in the kitchen with the help of Jeremiah.

He says he scooped up the children and gave one to Jeremiah, and they ran out of the house. Two other children, ages 2 and 5, also in the home were rescued by firefighters who arrived after Jeremiah called 911.

First lady promotes eating wisely MILAN — Michelle Obama took her campaign for healthy eating overseas on Wednesday, but let it slip that she still has work to do at home.

The U.S. fi rstlady prepared a lentil, barley and rice salad with middle school students at the James Beard American Restaurant in Milan, the second leg of a European tour that promotes some of her

core initiatives, including eat ing well to fight obesity.

Mrs. Obama emphasized to the 20 international students from the American School of Milan the importance of sitting down for a meal with the family as often as possible.

She said that the president always takes time for dinner with the family, and that taking time to talk about the day's events over dinner was one way to slow down and be conscious of eating.

"And you probably eat less because you are not just shoveling.... We don't shovel. Well, the president shovels sometimes," the first lady said to laughter.

Iragi training goal falls short of recruits WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. will fall way short of meeting its goal of training 24,000 Iraqi forces to fight Islamic State militants by this fall, Defense Secretary Ash Carter said Wednesday on Capitol Hill where lawmakers are already skeptical of the Obama administration' s strategy to address threats in the Mideast.

Carter told the House Armed Services Committee that the U.S. has received only enough recruits to train about 7,000 — in addition to about 2,000 coun-

those criteria," Carter said.

Later in the day, the House rejected a resolutio n to force Congress to debate an Authorization for the Use of Military Force for U.S. military engagement against IS in Iraq and Syria.

The measure, which was defeated 288139, would have dir~ t h at U.S. troops be withdrawn from the fight within 30 days of passage — or by the end of the year if Obama determines an immediate withdrawal is not safe — if Congress failed to approve a new authorization. terterrorism service personnel.

Move made to dismiss kill-gays ballot measure SACRAMENTO (AP)California's attorney general is asking a judge to toss outa proposed ballot initiative that a dvocates killing anyone who engages in gay sex.

Attorney General Kamala Harris on Tuesday asked Sacramento County Superior Court Judge Raymond Cadei to enter a default judgment against Matthew McLaughlin, the Orange County lawyer who paid $200 to submit the initiative.

McLaughlin has not attempted to defend his socalled Sodomite Suppression Act in court. He did not respond to a telephone

message Wednesday.

Another Sac r amento County judge previously gave Harris until June 25 to prepare an official title and ballot summary for the initiative, which would amend the California penal code to make sex with

a person of the same gender an offense punishable by "bullets to the head or by any other convenient method."

Issuing the title and summary would let McLaughl in start g a thering t h e 366,000 signatures needed to putthe law before voters in November 2016.

Harris wants Cadei to re-

Aramark has 30 days to approvethe contractbefore it goes to Congress for a 60-day review period and then back to the Park Service for final approval.

The pending contract calls for several operational improvements, according to the Park Service, including reducing vehicle traffic in Yosemite Valley, increasing water conservation, reducing electricity and fuel usage and enhancing food and beverage operations for visitors.

Ahwahnee Hotel, Curry Village, Wawona Hotel and Yosemite Lodge.

Last year, DNC reportedly valued the rights to the names at $51 million.

The company relinquished title of the actual buildings to the American people as part ofits 1993 concession contract with the Park service. However, DNC still claims rights to the use of the names and other operating assets,such as furniture and equipment.

"There's a stipulation in the contract that Aramark would need to work that out with Delaware North," Gediman said. "That will need to happen, but there's questions about both the value and legitimacy of the claims."

Freireich said Aramark will "work with the various parties and NPS to address this as part of the transition."

Another lingering question is a pending federal lawsuit against DNC and the Park Service over a 2012 hantavirus outbreak that sickened nine people who had stayed in Curry Village's "Signature" tent cabins.

Norton worked with Clearman in Oakland before Clearman died in 2006 after being struck by a hit-and-run driver while investigating an accident, according to the Officer Down Memorial Page.

During the ceremony, Mele also honored DeputySheriffDavid Grant and Deputy Rick D'Hondt.

Grant was a member of law enforcement for 28 years before his death in 2004, according to the Officer Down Memorial Page. Grant was killed in an automobile accident while responding to a small plane crash near Columbia.

Annie's Mailbox happened. It may even be that the treatment of his tumor affected his balance or visual focus, contributing to his tripping and falling.

Counseling will help you come to terms with this, and it doesn't need to be costly. Check at the hospital where your friend was treated and ask whether they ofFer grief counseling. You also can discuss this with your clergyperson.

DEAR ANNIE: It is summertime again, so I thought I would put in my two cents on what I want friends and relatives to be aware of when they come to my house to swim. Because I'm the

one with the pool, I am often expected to host our family and ITIends, which

is fine. I enjoy it. But people don't realize how much work it takes to make it ready to use. Here are my suggestions: 1. Don't show up early. Come at the time suggested.

2.Pleasebringtwotowelsperperson.

You use one towel each time you get out of the pool, anti when it's wet, you borrow one of mine. Most of the time, I never seethattowelagain.Bring aspare.

3. Remember to take all your stu6' home withyou and please labeleverything you bring. I don't know which goggles, towels,shirtsor sunscreen are yours when you come back a week later looking for them.

4. If you bring food to one of my pool parties, bring enough to share. And if you want to contribute to the meal I make, bring something substantial. I resent spending $75 on meat and you show up wit h a bag of chips. And bring drinks and ice. If there are leftovers, take them with yotL I can't store everything.

5. Watch your kids. I'm trying to cook, carry on a conversation, maybe swim a bit, and your precious child is running circles around the pool. Don't expect me to keep an eye on the kids, too. Have them obey my pool rules. They'Te for everyone's safety.

There are probably more things, but that's enough to make me feel better for now.— SWIMMNG ALONG DEAR SWIIKIHING: Everyone has different expectations for their pool guests,but your rules are sensible, especially the last one.

Thanks for writing.

that because he is taking warfarin, he can haveonly occasional salads and limited green vegetables. It is my understanding that as long as his consumptionof these foods is relatively consistent, they would be fine additions to his diet — and would be especially helpful in alleviating his persistent constipation issues. Can you discuss this subjectand possibly resolve our thsagreement? — J.E. ANSWER: Warfarin (Coumadin) blocks the action of vitamin K,preventiiig the formation of active clotting factors. Vitamin K is found especially in leafygreen vegetables,so it's the balance of warfarin and vitamin K intake that determines how much of the active clotting factorsarem ade.

MERCHANDISE

Keith Roach, M.D.

DEAR DR. ROACH:I am a 65-yearold female who had bilateral partial knee replacements last September. I had frequentepisodes of restless leg syndrome before surgery, but it has been taken to a whole new level. This is severely impacting my life, as it happens ofF and oii all day. I can't sit down to watch TV, read the paper or work on my computer. It makes car travel miserable, but what I'm really worried about is aplanned trip overseasthatrequires a 12-hour f1ight.

conditions that can exacerbate RLS: knee surgery and iron deficiency. Knee surgery can cause RLS symptoms even in people who haven't had it before, but that usually lasts for only a few weeks to months.

RLS occursin 30 to 40 percent of people with iron deficiency anemia.

Given your gastri c bypass surgery, which can interfere with iron absorptioii, I would worry that 325 mg of iron is not enough. The next time you see your doctor, it might be wise to get your iron retested. Vitamin C helps iron absorption.

Today in history Today is Thursday, June 18,the 169th day of 201 5.There are 196 days left in the year.

Today's Highlight in History: On June 18, 181 5,Napoleon Bonaparte met his Waterloo as British and Prussian troops defeated the French in Belgium.

On this date: In 1873, suffragist Susan B. Anthony was found guilty by a judge in Canandaigua, New York, of breaking the law by casting a vote in the 1872 presidential election.

(The judge fined Anthony $1 00, but she never paid the penalty.)

In 1940, during World War II, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill urged his countrymen to conduct themselves in a manner that would prompt future generations to say, "This was their finest hour." Charles de Gaulle delivered a speech on the BBC in which he rallied his countrymen after the fall of France to Nazi Germany.

In 1945, Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower received a tumultuous welcome in Washington D.C., where he addressed a joint session of Congress. William Joyce, known as "Lord Haw-Haw," was charged in London with high treason for his English-language wartime broadcasts on German radio. (He was hanged in January 1946.)

In 1953, a U.S. Air Force Douglas C-124 Globemaster II crashed near Tokyo, killing all 129 people on board. Egypt's 148-year-old Muhammad Aii Dynasty came to an end with the overthrow of the monarchy and the proclamation of a republic.

In 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson and Japanese Prime Minister Hayato Ikeda spoke to each other by telephone as they inaugurated the first trans-Pacific cable completed by AT&T between Japan and Hawaii.

In 1975, NBC launched its News and Information Service, an allnews radio network. (NIS lasted until May 1977.)

In 1979, President Jimmy Carter and Soviet President Leonid I. Brezhnev signed the SALT II strategic arms limitation treaty in Vienna.

Biii thinking fast under pressure. An old friend can provide guidance. Don't worry needlessly. Retreat from the world until you finish a job. Don't waste the scraps; recycle or repurpose. Review accounts. Listen carefully to someone experienced.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22):Today is an 8 — Participate in a community endeavor. Invest in your business. Do your best job, and keep clients happy. Share about your latest project. Practice your new skills. Your professional status is on the rise. Word gets around.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):Today is an 8 — Keep your word with your family. Do a job you said you would.

Chores won't do themselves. There's plenty of work, but you canmanage it.Send loveto someone who lovesyou.

Crazy dreams seem possible.

Sagittari us (Nov.22-Dec.21):Today is a 9 — The news affects your decisions today. Adapt to circumstances.

Cleanand make repairs.Rescheduleas necessary.Don 't try new tricks. Stick with what worked before. Explore and study. Call in reinforcements. Keep your side of the bargain.

4Q J 9 8 2 Willie Tyler, a ventriloquist, comedian East and thespian, said, "The reason lightning doesn't strike twice in the same place is that 4 8 5 4 4 976 3 2 the same place isn't there the second time." V A 1 0 6 3 2 VQ9 That sounds logical, although an overbid p J g 2 0 A 865 on the power of lightning. The key word for 4? 4 today'sdeal,though, is "second."

South A defender's opening lead imparts infor4 QJ 10 mation about his holding in that suit, but 1 KJ7 sometimes it takes his second lead to tell t KQ4 partner exactly how to defend.

4 A 10 6 5 How does that apply in this deal? South is in three no-trur n, and West leads the heart Dealer: South three. South takes East's queen with his Vulnerable: Both k'ng,crosses to dummy with a spade, and South West N orth E a st runs theclub queen. What should happen >NT p 3gT AII p after that?

The auction was simple and straightforOpening lead:1 3 ward. North, with a balanced hand and no thought of a slam, correctly did not mention his minor suit.

West knows that South holds the heart jack, because if East had had that card, he would have played the jack, not the queen, at trick one. When playing third hand high, one tables the bottom of touching cards. So, unless South started with an unlikely king-jack-doubleton, West must try to get East on lead for a heart return through declarer's jack. How? Clearly, the answer is in diamonds. But which diamond should West lead?

As he wants East to return a heart, West should lead his nine, the high card denying interest in that suit. Then, East should win with his ace and return the heart nine, resulting in down two.

Tune in tomorrow for the antithesis of this deal.

NOTICE OF REQUEST FILED BY CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF WATER RESOURCES AND THE UNITED STATES BUREAU OF RECLAMATION TO MODIFY AND RENEW A TEMPORARY URGENCY CHANGE ORDER REGARDING PERMITS AND LICENSE OF THE STATE WATER PROJECT AND THE CENTRAL VALLEY PROJECT

The Department of Water Resources and the United States Bureau of Reclamation (collectively referred to as the Petitioners) filed a Temporary Urgency Change Petition (TUCP) with the State Water Resources Control Board (State Water Board or Board), Division of Water Rights on January 23, 2015, pursuant to California Water Code section 1435, to address critically dry conditions associated with California's ongoing drought. The TUCP requested that the State Water Board temporarily change the Petitioners' permit and license terms for the Central Valley Project and State Water Project (Projects) that are included in State Water Board Decision 1641 and require the Projects to meet specified flow and water quality objectives included in the Water Quality Control Plan for the San Francisco Bay-Sacramento/San Joaquin Delta Estuary. The TUCP requested the changes for a period of 180 days.

On February 3, 2015, the State Water Board's Executive Director issued an Order approving in part, and denying in part, the January 23 TUCP (Order).

On May 21, 2015, the Petitioners submitted a request to the State Water Board to modify and renew the Order pursuant to Water Code section 1441, which allows for temporary change orders to be renewed for up to 180 additional days. This notice, the Petitioners' original TUCP, Petitioners' subsequent requests to modify the TUCP, the Order, subsequent modifications to the Order, and related project information can be viewed at: htt://www.waterboards.ca. ov/waterri hts/water issues/ ro rams/ drou ht/tuc .shtml.

The May 21 request seeks modifications to D-1641 that, if approved, will: (1) change the minimum Net Delta Oufflow Index (NDOI) to a monthly average of 3,000 cfs for July, with a seven-dayrunning average ofno less than 2,000 cfs; (2) change the minimum Sacramento River Flow requirements at Rio Vista for the months of September, October, and November to a monthly average of no less than 2,500 cfs on average, with a seven-day running average of no less than 2,000 cfs; and (3) extend the change of the Western Delta agricultural salinity requirement at Emmaton to a compliance location at Threemile Slough on the Sacramento River through August 15. Any renewed or modified Order taking action on the TUCP will be posted on the above State Water Board website.

Pursuant to California Water Code section 1438(d), any interested person or entity may file an objection to the temporary, urgency changes requested. Water Code section 1438 describes the procedure for addressing an objection. In order to be fully considered before the State Water Board takes action on the TUCP, objections filed in response to this notice should be submittedby Wednesday, June 17,2015.

Objections submitted after that date will be accepted, but should be received by the State Water Board no later than Monday, July 6, 2015.

Susan Mayne, director of the FDA's Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition, says those hidden amounts can still "add up to aconsiderable intake of trans fats if you look at the overall diet."

For now, the agency is recommending that consumers take a look at ingredient lists on packaged foods to make sure they don't contain partially hydrogenated oils.

Once the three-year compliance period is up, none of those ingredients would be allowed unless FDA specifically approves them.

The advocacy group Center for Science in the Public Interest first petitioned FDA to ban trans fats 11 years ago. The group's director, Michael Jacobson, says the decision to phase them out "is probably the single most important thing the FDA has ever done for the healthfulness of the food supply" Also contributing to the decline over the years are local laws that restrict them in

Manziel says'3obnny Football'overtook birn BE REA, Ohio (AP) Johnny Football became more than Johnny Manziel could handle.

"It just overtook who I was as a p erson," the B r owns

quarterback said Wednesday.

Speaking to the media for the first time since spending 10 weeks in a rehab facility, the polarizing Manziel said he's hoping to move past a r egrettable chapter in h i s life. While he didn't divulge the reasons for his stay in a Pennsylvania substanceabuse facility, Manziel acknowledged he got caught up trying to live up to a persona he helped create.

"I think at times Johnny Footballprobably took over me a little bit and I bought into that," Manziel said following the team's second

One of the changes the former Heisman Trophy winner from Texas A&M intends to make is scrapping his trademark money sign, when he rubshisfingerstogetherafter a big play.

The 22-year-old didn't duck any questions and he reiterated that he was the one responsiblefor "a disaster"ofa rookie season in the NFL. "At theend ofthe day,everything that happened last year is not on anybody else but myself," said Manziel, who made two starts last season.

Looking back, M anziel wishes he would have acted differently. He's been selfish, irresponsible — not a good teammate.

"I feel bad about that throughout the last months of my life, really thinking back and seeinghow much of my life outside of this field and outside of this locker room was documented," he said.

"It's not fair for Joe Haden to be having to answer questions about me every day. It' s not fair for Joe Thomas and all these guys to just continue to have questions asked about me. I don't think that' s fair at all and I don't want that on them."

53 possible money-laundering cases in probe US women to play Colombia in knockout round of World Cup BERN, Switzerland (AP) — Reeling from an American federal investigation of bribery in soccer, FIFA was put under more pressure Wednesday as the scaleof a separate Swiss investigat ion of suspected money laundering was revealei.

In the current winter sea-

son, the only sport available for girls is basketball. Boys have basketball and wrestling.

For first-year Summerville head football coach Sean Leveroos, the change could potentially mean more playersforhisteam.

"When you are t alking about a small school like Summerville, anytime you can get m ore guys on the roster is a big deal," Leveroos said. "We areattempting togetan early jump on some soccer players.

Our football program is not exclusive. We are working on getting guys to play two sports for us. There are a couple ofsoccer players that we are hoping to do some kicking for us this season."

One reason for the switch was that the outdoor facilities are not being used during winter. Now, the boys' soccer team won't have to compete with the football program for use of the field. But they will, however, have to compete with the girls' soccer team and the two junior varsity teams foraccess to Thorsted

"We always had to practice at Standard Park," Reel said. "It was very rare that we could practice at home, becausefootballhas the field every day. I would gladly trade tohave to practice at Standard and continue to play during the fall. Now we have four soccer teams trying to use the field. How does that free up the field for anyone? I shoot that theory down."

"I think that club soccer will have to make some kind of adjustment and change the way they have their league," Velazquez said.

BRIEFs Talks falter f'o new r stadium in SanDiego SAN DIEGO (AP)Mayor Kevin Faulconer on Wednesday questioned whether the Chargers were serious about staying in San Diego as the strained relationship between the city and the NFL team hit a new low amid negotiations over a new stadium.

Faulconer's uncharacter-

istically angry public words came one day after the team shot down the mayor' s trial balloon for a city election this year on financing a stadium, dealing a blow to San Diego's efforts to prevent the Chargers from

moving to Los Angeles. The team said the mayor's proposal wouldn't satisfy state election and environmental laws.

The Chargers and Oakland Raiders plan to jointly build a $1.7 billion stadium in the Los Angeles suburb of Carson, one of two proposals to return an NFL team to the nation's second-

largest city after a twodecade absence. St. Louis Rams owner Stan Kroenke is part of a group planning to build a nearly $2 billion stadium in the city of Inglewood.

San Diego County Supervisor Ron Roberts, who appeared alongside the mayor, said, 'Right now it appears like the Chargers are running the dock out on us and we' re not being left with a lot of options."

Warriors employees, shuttled

THINGS WE L AT MICHIGAN

3 questions we had to ask —ourselves

How many top-10s will Truex Jr. get this

AssociatedPress / CA RLOS OSORIO

year?

Every driver would love to be in Martin Truex Jr.'s shoes these days. He's on a roll in a contract year.

ROB'S RAMBLINGS: Not even the rain could stop him. I'm thinking high 20s might be too lofty, but 25 could be within reach.

KEN'S CALL:Let's assume the 14-for-15 pace will eventually slow, so I' ll go with 22, which means the slump will come at the wrong time.

There have been two statistical oddities of an exceptional kind so far — Kevin Harvick's 10 finishes of first or second, as well as Martin Truex's 14 top-10s through 15 races. If you' re lumped into the history book alongside anything Richard Petty did in the 1960s, you' re doing something right. But I' ll be more impressed if Truex uses this run wisely.

Impressed by Truex Jr. yet?

Junior's goingto

You talking leverage?

h

Germany on the off week — what could go wrong?

I'm talking leverage. Truex's twoyear contract with Furniture Row Racing ends in November, and these five months of overachieving puts him in perfect position to dramatically improve his career opportunities in the coming years.

Life is leverage, and Truex has an industrial-sized hand truck in his trunk. If he's smart, he won't be shy about wheeling it to the bank.

ROB'S RAMBLINGS: Junior on a commercial flight? The problems might start well before

getting to Germany. The interesting trip could be through security.

KEN'S CALL:Absolutely nothing. Well ... barring genealogy embarrassments, of course.

Anything worse than a rain-shortened race?

ROB'S RAMBLINGS: If you' re a gambler, it's great. How about 8-1 odds on Kurt? For everyone else it' s,"We waited a week for this?"

KEN'S CALL:As a fan, probably not. But a postponement to Monday is pretty close.

Associated Press/DAVE FRECHETTE

Last July at Daytona, Aric Almirola got lucky with rainfall; Sunday at Michigan, he only got wet.

Junior to Germany?

1. Missed Opportunities

gating the family heritage. He says

For Kyle Larson, Kasey Kahne and Jeff Gordon — three non-winners who face trying to make the Chase on points

Kyle Busch's weekend: Win on Saturday, wreck on Sunday. In Saturday's Xfinity race, Kyle collected his first win since returning from injury. But on the Cup side, where he desperately needs a win to be Chase eligible, his Sunday ended shortly after a restart on Lap 60 when he careened hard into a wall.

Stewart-Haas Racing almost lived up to the motto of Ricky Bobby's dad, "If you' re not first, you' re last." After Kurt Busch, the winner, SHS struggled. Danica Patrick led two laps and finished 16th, Tony Stewart was 28th and Kevin Harvick suffered a flat tire and finished 29th.

— a rain-shortened race was

a golden opportunity to sneak in a win. Larson threatened for a while, but the threatening weather would not cooperate, and he had to pit before the heavy rains.

THINGS TO WATCH FOR AT SONOMA

DAVID GILLILAND

1. Can Toyota win its sponsored race?

DAVID GILLILANDVS. MIKE BLISS: Gilliland wrecked early and finished 42nd, suggesting Bliss "just kind of ran us over."

KEN WILLIS'TAKE:"Good news: It's the first time in weeks these two got their names in the paper."

Last year saw a Chevy/Ford dominance. Clint Bowyer (10th, five laps led) and Brian Vickers (14th, no laps led) were the lone Toyota drivers to even make the top 20. Toyota's average finish: 28th.

2. Harvick watch A few drivers we sometimes overlook are roadcourse savvy and can sneak in a strong finish here. Kevin Harvick's knack for finishing top-two gets much tougher here. But he led 23 laps last year before a late crash and 20th-place finish.

3. Jeff, we' re still waiting Jeff Gordon's swan-song season is still without a win, but after his strong finish here last year, there's hope in Sonoma. He finished second to Carl Edwards after a late pass attempt failed.

Gordon has five wins and 14 top-5s here.
