supports extending

parking hours By ALEX MacLEAN The Union Democrat

A plan to give people an extra hour to park in downtown Sonora could move forward next month. The Sonora City Council unanimously approved a recommendation Monday directingstaff 'to prepare a formal resolution that would increase the two-hour parking time limit on certain streets in the down-

town area to three hours. The resolution is scheduled for consideration at the council's next meeting, which will be held at 5 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 8, in observance of Labor Day on Sept. 7. Through the Vision Sonora planning process, downtown business owners and cus-

tomersrequested the change to give people more time for shopping and dining. Councilman George Segarini said he didn't have a problem with giving people an extrahour to park, but urged downtown

business owners not to take advantage of the new rules by parking their own vehicles in those spaces. "Parking is a critical situation for us here in Sonora, and those parking spaces should be left open for your customers," he said. "I hope they take that to mind a little bit." Also at Monday's meeting, which lasted about 30 minutes, the council accepted a federal grant that will allow the Sonora

"It measures about 1 1/4 inch in diameter and tracks the movement of the sun each day. I think it's from the Gaillardia family of plants," he said. Sonora resident Bill Hansen submitted a photo called "Bowling Ball Beach," taken May 7 (left).

currently lost through leaks. "We go into these projects knowing the majority of it will be reimbursed," Kampa said. ''With the water line replacement project, we' re proposing to spend $2.4 million to save $50,000 a month."

Losing 32e prcent to leaks, other uses A water audit for July shows the district lost 6.28 acre-feet from July 1 to July 29, a 20 percent loss. A grant application to fund the pipe replacement project estimates Lake Don Pedro CSD loses about 32 percent of its entire water supply to leaks and other unaccountedfor uses. "Without the service-line replacement project, the LDPCSD's service lines would continue to deteriorate, leaks would increase, and LDPCSD could run out of water," the district's grantapplication states. Lake Don Pedro Community Services Districtannual water needs totalabout 500 acrefeet,Kampa said. In March 2015, the Lake Don Pedro CSD Board ofDirectors adopted water conservation restrictions that commit its customers to

saving 50 percent compared with their usage in 2014. Earlier this year, McClure hit a record low Feb.3with 63,489 acre-feet,about6percent of capacity, accordingtoa spokesman forMerced Irrigation District, which manages the reservoir and New Exchequer. One acre-foot of water is equivalent to the amount it would take to flood a football field with water 1footdeep.

time to t in in as in ton WASHINGTON — It is that sane and glorious time when the nation's capital dispenses its human cargo to places of origin and locations of respite. "I don't know why everyone leaves," I remarked to my neighbor. 'There's so much great parking." (Don't muddle; it's a joke.) There is, indeed, great parking, as well as less traffic. With the political contingent largely gone, the Hill is as quiet as a morning after and "normal" people are dining out. Most awesome: One has time to A ugust,

of tlnngs — summer, vacation, camp

and children underfoot — marks for Washingtonians the arrival of peace. The usual, rapid chatter becomes a low, slow hum. Fewer sirens stab the air and the ever-present helicopters finally buzz off In this near-sudden silence, one realizes that Washington is more offen Fallujah than Paris — a war zone where armies of reporters, pundits and politicos wage war with words in theaters of green rooms and bunkers of makeup. What's that sound? Ah, cicadas. Would that Washington would burrow beneath the toil of urgent matters and keep quiet for years at a time. August is good for dreaming, too. Look at me. I buried the lede and almost forgot everyone' s favorite part of all: Journalists leave town, too. When the three branches of government shutter the windows and lock the doors, what's le to do? (The car-alarm coverage of Donald Trump may provide a hint.) Alas, where Trump goes, the media go. Rumor has it he' s heading to Iowa so it's off to the Hawkeye State we go. Friday morning, "Meet the Press Chuck Todd was reporting from the Iowa State Fairgrounds in a groundhoggian image of what these days we call "authentic." The real people of America will soon enough let us know what they think of all this and that. Personally, I wonder what they think of all those Trump buses stationed in Wal-Mart parking lots around the state — sans The Donald? For Trump, you see, Being There isn' t actually required. The name is all. Look, Trump'a in town! Even when he's not, really. When he does materialize, equal parts Liberace and P.T. Barnum, folks will show up if only to lay eyes on the real McCoy. Will Trump press the flesh? What a disgusting thought for a reputed germaphobe. Will he kiss babies, those messy little bundles of orificial emissions? Such are the musings of an August morn — and a clear indication that my own vacation begins in just a few sentences more. For your indulgence and patience, I will share a secretI've kept mostly to myself the past year or so.It has to do with my absence for several months last summer and fall, which some of you may have noticed. If not, you are forgiven. My syndicate issued an explanation to my then-500 papers that I'd had an accident and would be taking a break to recover. Iwasn'teager to share the detailsfor reasons that will become apparent. Basically, I slipped and fell down a steep staircase in May 2014, which resulted in a concussion — more aptly named a traumatic brain injury — that put me out of work and circulation. It was, indeed, traumatic, as well as terrifying. Thanks to months of therapy and many helping hands, it is over. My mentioning it now has to do with two things: One, I'm back to my old self, more or less. My goal was to return to two columns a week and to reappear on news shows before I admitted that for a long time I didn't know who I was. My editors, Alan Shearer with the Washington Post Writers Group, and Fred Hiatt, editorial page editor of the Washington Post, were both anchor and sail, keeping the boat afloat and buoying my spirits until the brain had finished its business. Two, I'm about to enjoy time off that I can consciously experience. Last year, I had bought a book titled "No Time to Think." And then suddenly I could neither read nor think. This time, I can and shall do both. I will also continue work on a book I'm writing about what happened to me. My hope is that others might benefit from what I experienced and from what I learned about friends and family, seasons and time, rhythms and essence. It was quite a trip, about which more to come — in good time. Meanwhile, enjoy the cicadas — because you can.

State sees crime wave in wake of Prop 47 "The Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act" isn't living up to its promise. Also known as Proposition 47, the California ballot initiative, which was approved in November 2014 with 60 percent of the vote, downgraded drug possession and many property crimes from a felony to a misdemeanor. Proponents argued that lesser punishment for low-level offenders would enhance public safety. San Francisco District Attorney George Gascon was the rare prosecutor who pushed for its approval. He told the San Francisco Chronicle, 'What we have been doing hasn't worked, frankly." Gascon spokesman Alex Bastian told me, "The voters indicated that possessing small amounts of narcotics" should not constitute a felony. Californians don' t want three-year sentences for drug possession. I don' t, either, but on the ground, the legal fix is not living up to its hype. Prop 47has made iteasier for drug offenders to avoid mandated treatment programs. The measure reduced penalties for the theft of goods worth less than $950. Habitual offenders know that, critics say, and they' ve changed their habits to avoid hard time. The measure's approvalalso prompted the state to &ee some 8,700 inmates. In San Francisco, theft Rom cars is up 47 percent this year over the same period in 2014. Auto theft is up by 17 percent. Robberies are up 23 percent. And aggravatedassaultsare up 2 percent,according to San Francisco police spokesman Carlos Manfredi. Burglaries are down 5 percent. The City of Angels saw a 12.7 percent

Jerry Brown's 2011 "realignment" policy. Realignment switched the responsibility of incarcerating nonserious, nonviolent, non-sex-offender felons from state prisons to local jails. Then Prop 47 whittled away at the definition of what constitutes a felony. 'The most commonly committed felonies no longer carry a prison sentence," Rushford told me. If the police catch someone, they know "they' re just going to cite him and let him out

onies and making them misdemeanors." Police still can arrest offenders — and should. Earlier this year, Gascon showed up at a Chronicle editorial board meeting with a chartthat showed a rise in reported crimesfrom 44,675 in 2012 to 52,786 in 2014 — butfewer arrestsin 2014 (7,891) than in 2012 (7,946). And that was before Prop 47 was approved."Idon'twanttogo into what police officers are thinking or not thinking," Bastian told me. "The reality is that when arrests go down, it could have an impact on crime going up." Thus continues the finger-pointing between San Francisco prosecutors and police. Have reali gnment and Prop 47 made police feel that there's not much point in sticking out one's neck because the result could be that the criminal they arrest will go away for a matter of months, at the most, and the offender could be out of jail the next day? Palm Springs police Chief Al Franz told KESQ-TV that he calls the new regime "catch and release." It was not that long ago that the 1994 voter-approved 'Three Strikes and You' re Out" initiative gave California a reputation as the over-incarceration state. In 2006, there were 163,000 inmates in state prisons. In 2009, the U.S. Supreme Court orderedthe state to reduce the state prison population to 137.5 percent of design capacity — which is one inmate per cell. Brown's realignment plan was a brilliant move politically, as it passed the hot potato of releasing inmates from Sacramento to local sheriffs. In March, after three years of realign-

To the Editor: I was rather appalled to go intothe grocery store today and find that the price of eggs has more than doubled,from $3 a dozen to over $6. I realize that there is an epidemic of avian flu going on in the MidWest, but most of our eggs must be locally sourced, or at least come from California, and as far as I know, the cost of producing eggs hasn't gone up significantly, unless the chickens have been granted a healthy raise.

BAMAKO, Mali — Government-allied militia forces chased Tuareg s e paratists from a village in Mali's troubled north after days of fighting, the United Nations mission said Monday as it announced a safety parameter around a northern city to ensure civilian protection. At least 23 Tuareg separatists have been killed after three days of flghting with government-allied militiasthat broke a peace accord signed earlier this year, said Fahad Ag Mahmoud, a spokesman for the pro-government group GATIA. Mossa Ag Attaher, a spokesman for the main separatists Coordinationof Azawad Movements, said some had been killed though he could not confirm the toll was that high. The U.N. said GATIA took over Anefis, a village that lies about 93 miles south of Kidal and is occupied by the separatist group, also known as CMA.

MOREHEAD, Ky. (AP) — A federal judge on Monday gave a Kentucky county clerk room to continue denying marriage licensesto gays and lesbians while she takes her religious objections case to a higher court. U.S. District J u dge David Bunning ordered Rowan County C l erk Kim Davis last week to issuelicenses to two gay couples, and ruled Monday that she is not entitled to any more delays. But because "emotions are running high on both sides ofthis debate," he also stayed his decision while she takes her case to the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeal. A ttorneys o n bo t h sides disagreed about the implications. Dan Canon, representing the gay couples, said Davis remains under the judge's order. But Mat Staver, who represents Davis and is the founder of Florida-based Liberty Counsel, said the convoluted order essentially grants her request for more time.

What is clear is that Davis will continue refusing to issue marriage licenses to anyone in this county of about 23,000 people, home to Morehead State University in the Appalachian foothills of eastern Kentucky. Until the case is resolved, no new wedding can be l egally r ecognized i n Rowan County u nless the couple obtains a marriage license somewhere else.

day within a central Bangkok shrine that is among the city's most popular tourist spots, killing at least 18 people and injuring more than 100 across a hectic intersection surroundedby five-starhotelsandupscaleshopping mails. With a powerful flash caught on security videoand a boom heard blocks away, the blast &om the improvised explosive device scattered body parts across Rachaprasong intersecti on, spattered blood, blasted windows and burned motorbikes to the metal. It exploded during evening rush hour as the area was fllled with tourists, offlce workers and shoppers. "Suddenlythere was a big boom, and the whole room just shook, like someone dropped a wrecking ball on top of our ceiling," said Pim Niyomwan, an English instructor working on the eighth floor of the building right next to the shrine. 'The whole building just shook. My four students were hysterical." Video shortly after the blast depicts a scene of shock and desperation: people running for their lives and crying amid the debris. An emergency worker in an ambulance,

No one immediately claimed responsibility for the bombing. "Those who have planted this bomb are cruel," said national police chief Somyot Poompummuang. "They aim to kill because everyone knows that at 7 p.m. the shrine is crowded with Thais and foreigners. Planting a bomb there means they want to see a lot of dead people." At least 18 people were confirmed dead and 117 injured, according to the Narinthorn emergency medical rescue center. The dead included Chinese and a Filipino, Somyot said. As a single, devastating blow to this Southeast Asian metropolis, Monday's bombing has no equal in recent history, though Thailand is no stranger to violent attacks. A more-than-decade-long insurgency by southern Muslim separatists has left more than 5,000 dead far from the capital. In Bangkok, politically charged riots centered on this very intersection in 2010 killed more than 90 over two months. Police said the bomb was made with a pipe wrapped in cloth. Police said it was too soon to determine the motive.

Breach bigger than first thought WASHINGTON (AP) — A computer breach at the IRS in which thieves stole tax information &om thousands of taxpayers is much bigger than the agency originally disclosed. An additional 220,000 potential victims had information stolen &om an IRS website as part of a sophisticated scheme to use stolen identities to claim fraudulent tax refunds, the IRS said Monday. The revelation more than doubles the total number of potential victims,

to 334,000.

The breach also started earlier than i nvestigators initially thought. The tax agency first disclosed the breach in May. The thieves accessed a system called "Get Transcript," where taxpayers can get tax returns and other filings from previous years. In order to access the information,the thieves cleared a security screen that required knowledge about the taxpayer, including Social Security number, date of birth, tax filing status and street address, the IRS said.

The personal information was presumably stolen from other sources. The IRS believesthe thieves were accessing the IRS website to get even more information about the taxpayers, which could help t h e m c l aim fraudulent tax refunds in the future. In all, the thieves used personal information from about 610,000 taxpayers in an effort to access old tax returns. They were successful in getting information from about334,000 taxpayers.

Roberts' death was Sonora's first homicide since February 2001, when Michael Gilligan, 44, of Sonora, was murdered by three homeless men.

Police officers told Davis the re-

lationship was unlawful, the documents say. Davis then reportedly asked them to arrest the girl for "entrapment."

Segerstrom gave Davis 314 days for time served in the Tuolumne County Jail and also sentenced him to two terms of eight months on other charges.

Three people died in an car accident on Highway 108 Saturday afiernoon. The California Highway Patrol reportedthat the driver of a westbound Honda CRV was traveling in the wrong direction when the car collided head-on with a Toyota Rav 4. When the driver of the Toyota swerved to the right shoulder, the car became engulfed in fire, setting the hillside on fire. Both occupants ofthe Toyota died,as did thedriver of the Honda. CHP was called to the scene at 4:06 p.m., and the eastbound lanes were closed for four hours as firefighters worked to extinguish the blaze, which eventually grew to 110 acres.

The names of the occupants of the cars had not been released Monday afiernoon. Meanwhile, a $4 million home on Clio Court near Jamestown was destroyed by fire that was possibly started by a barbecue that had been left on, said Chris Fritz, fire engineer at the Jamestown Fire Station. The fire at the 10,000-squarefoot home was reported at 3:53 a.m. Sunday. The fire department reported that about 1

CSERC alleged that burying 27 acres of oak woodland to expand the company's existing 48-acre fill zone would cause a significant impact on the environment, which forces a

more extensive study known as an environmental impact report. The company withdrew its application with the county in March 2014, opting to complete the EIR in an effort to avoid further legal challenges down the road. Blue Mountain Minerals CEO Jeff Redoutey said the EIR took nearly 18 months and cost about $384,300 to complete, but came to the same conclusion as the company's original study that found the expansion would have no significant environmental impacts. The original study, called a mitigatednegative declaration, cost the company about $337,200to complete. "The totalcost so far is $721,540 for this 27-acre expansion," Redoutey said. "It is a symptom of the cost of moving business opportunitiesand projectsforward in both the state and this county." Redoutey said one of the reasons the company decided to go through with the EIR was because the moreextensive study can generally hold up betteragainst legal challenges than a mitigated negative declaration.

Restaurateurs finding ways to cope with rising cost of eggs

By JASON COWAN The Union Democrat

Alicia Hartle uses a lot of eggs. On any given week in the summer, the owner of Sugar Pinedbased Alicia's Sugar Shack purchases about 1,260 eggs for her business. She uses a significant portion of them on Sundays. 'Vile crack a ton of eggs," Hartle said.

And she will not allow a single one to go to waste — not with the current price of eggs skyrocketing throughout the nation. "We try to use the whole egg,

significantly since January. Ac-

cording to Hartle, eight months ago, one unit of eggs — 15 dozen — could be purchased for $29.71. Last week, however, the price for the same amount of eggs just about reached the $53 mark, gradually building up since early this year. The drastic increase in price is related to avian influenza, an infectious viral disease that has affected millions of birds throughout the Midwest. According to Scott Oneto, farm advisor for the University of California Cooperative Extension Central Sierra, which covers Tuolumne and Calaveras counties, 49 million chickens and turkeys have died due to the disease.

"I feel like food is so expensive anyway that I don't just want to put that cost on my customers," Hartle said. Although Hartle has gotten along thus far without having toincrease prices, other businesses might not have any other alternatives. Due to

the price spike, Brian Farmer is currently in the process of revampingthe menu at The Lighthouse Deli in Sonora. "We havetoraiseprices.W e have absolutely no choice," said Farmer, the owner.'We' re not trying to profit off the egg increaseprice.We 'rejust trying to break even on it." The Lighthouse Deli isn' t the only business in the region that is looking into raising prices on the menu to get by, however. Bristol's Ranch House Cafe, a restaurant located in Arnold, is considering raising the prices of its menu items for only the second time in its 12-year history. "I haven't made any changes asof yet.W e are seriously talking about raising prices a little bit," said Patty Bristol, owner of the establishment,

"I'm just waiting it out to see if it would change, because prices of eggs do go up and down. But some enterprises do get lucky during times of need. Rob Cross-Carpenter, owner of the Cooper House Bed & Breakfast Inn, a small threebeh oom establishment in AngelsCamp, isableto purchase eggs at a fraction ofthecost. " Fortunately for u s w e have avery dear friend that raises chickens and provides eggs for us at a reduced cost," Cross-Carpenter said.

And individual business owners take one for the team. Instead ofraising rates or menu offerings to compensatefor the price of eggs on the market, Karen Konietzny, who owns the San Andreasbased Robin's Nest bed and breakfast with her husband, sacrifices some luxuries she would enjoy in her private life. "Instead ofeating steak, we' ll eat mac and cheese at home," said Konietzny. "We just have to tighten the belt and hope all the guests come back. We get a lot of happy people.

Good news: Since preference forless salty foods may literally be an acquired taste,strategies for lowering salt in your diet should includerepeat exposures to low-salt food items. Though it may take numerous exposures before you prefer the new taste, it seems that it is possible to start enjoying the tasteoflower saltfoods. And that's a healthy prefer-

Wife's done with husband's flirtatious ways DEAR A&PKr~: My husband and I are in our 608. Recently, he hugged a new neighbor and kissed her on the cheek. She is our age and divorced. We don't know her well at all. I was shocked, embarrassed and angry. I commented later, asking my husband if he hugged and kissed any of the other women (all married) in our group of friends. He thinks I'm being ridiculous. But he has done similar things times in the past whenever there's a new female around. It's like he can't help it. He becomes completely obsessed with the "new girl." We' ve been married a long time. I told him he should always act like a married man and that his flirtatious behavior makes me feel terrible and I don't want to experience it anymore. I'm in s h ape and a t t ractive. I' ve

Shingles vaccine helps prevent complications DEAR DR. ROACH: My boyfriend, who is in his 60s, got the recommended shinglesshot a couple of years ago. Three weeks ago, he got a very bad case of shingles. It went &om the front of his stomach, along the left side, to the middle of his spine. He has huge blisters,a red rash, pain and no appetite, and he constantly sleeps. The doctor put him on a regimen of valacyclovir. He was told to keep the area moist to avoid cracking and pulling of the blisters and rash. I thought that if you got the shingles shot, you wouldn't get the shingles,or at least you'd get only a mild case. His has not been a mild case. The doctor told him that the shot just gives a false sense of security. If so, why get the shot? — D.H. ANSWER I disagree with his doctor;it isn't a false sense of security so much as it's an incomplete sense of security. No medical treatment is 100 percent effective, and that includes vaccines. Even the best vaccines don' t work on some people, or can't be used, which is why having a large proportion of the population vaccinated is so criti-

Today in history Today is Tuesday, August 18, the 230th day of 2015. There are 135 days left in the year. Today's Highlight in History: On August 18, 1587, Virginia Dare became the first child of English parents to be born in present-day America, on what is now Roanoke Island in North Carolina. (However, the Roanoke colony ended up mysteriously disappearing.) On this date: In 1920, the 19th Amendment to the Constitution, guaranteeing all American women's right to vote, was ratified as Tennessee became the 36th state to approve it. In 1955, the romantic drama "Love Is a ManySplendored Thing," starring William Holden and Jennifer Jones, had its world premiere in New York. In 1963, James Meredith became the first black student to graduate from the University of Mississippi. In 1969, the Woodstock Music and Art Fair in Bethel, New York, wound to a close after three nights with a midmorning set by Jimi Hendrix. In 1983, Hurricane Alicia slammed into the Texas coast, leaving 21 dead and causing more than a billion dollars' worth of damage. The Kansas City Royals defeated the New York Yankees, 5-4, in the completion of the "pine-tar" game in just 12 minutes. In 1988, Vice President George H.W. Bush accepted the presidential nomination of his party at the Republican National Convention in New Orleans. In 1995, Shannon Faulkner, who'd won a 2 1/2-year legal battle to become the first female cadet at The Citadel, quit the South Carolina military college after less than a week, most of it spent in the infirmary.

IRIDS changescouldcause a mess.Don'tpressa sticky issue or let it destroy your domestic tranquility. Family comes first. Stay flexible when confronted with chaos or differing opinions. Think before speaking. Stay calm and carry on. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Today is an 8 — Mistakes are entirely possible. Question your data. Something doesn' t go as planned. Keep at it until you get it right. You won' t learn everything from the textbooks. Avoid emotional provocation. Wait until asked for your opinion. Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Today is a 7 — Infuse passion into a creative project. Keep to a tight budget. Inhibit your natural generosity. Neither a borrower nor lender be. Maintain 8 mystery. You' re stronger than you thought. Love finds a way to realize your commitments. Sagittatius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6 — A disagreement about priorities could lead to disapproval from an authority figure. Stay respectful. Patience and a cool demeanor get farther than shouting, and faster. This is a test. Listen for the gold and find it. Capricorn (Dec. 22 Jan. 19): Today is a 7 — Cultivate your desire to lead. Something doesn't go as planned. Postpone travel. All is not as it appears to be. Don't make assumptions. Ask others how they feel rather than guessing. Clean up after yourself. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 7 — Conserve resources. Don't let friends spend your money. Let them think you' re poorer than you are. Avoid risky business. Keep finances private, and practice frugality. Costs can vary widely. Don't get burned. Rest and relax, instead of spending. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6 — You' re in the eye of the storm. Confusion reigns. Don't talk back. Let yourself be led. You may have to break eggs to make an omelet. Clean up after. Having a meticulous partner helps. Anticipate controversy.

How should South play after West leads the club seven: three, five (a count signal), jack? Declarer starts with eight top tricks: one spade, one heart, five diamonds and one club (trick one). He can establish extra winners in either pointed suit, but the first trick has made it clear that West has the club ace-queen hovering over South's king-10. So, East must be kept off the lead. Declarer should play a diamond to the dummy, then return a heart to his queen (or 10). When the queen holds, he can claim.

ty coroner Shannon Dent would only say that he suspected natural causes in Ellis' death. He would not elaborate and referrel questionsto race organizers, Life Time Fitness. A spokeswoman for company, Amy Henderson, said it would not share details of Ellis' death out of respect for him and his family. The company noted that many cyclists stopped their races to help Ellis, who worked as an engineer for the Colorado Department of Transportation. The race is draws about 1,500 riders a year. Past participants have included famed bicyclists Lance Armstrong and Levi Leipheimer. Armstrong helped supportotherracersin this year's competition and sent condolences via Twitter to Ellis' family, &iends and teammates. Ellis had been leading the rebuilding of a key road damaged in Colorado's September 2013 Goods, U.S. Highway 34 through Big Thompson Canyon.

Phinney, a Colorado native, had just won the national time trial title in May 2014 when he started the road race a few days later.

Los Angeles stadium could bring division shiR LOS ANGELES (AP) — Construction of an NFL stadium in the Los Angeles area could come with another change: a possible shift in division for the Oakland Raiders or the San Diego Chargers. The teams have proposed a shared $1.78 billion stadium in the city of Carson — one of two stadium projects being considered by the NFL near Los Angeles that could bring professional football back to the region after a twodecade absence. Carmen Policy, a former San Francisco49ersexecutive who was hired to helpoversee the Carson project,said Monday that the teams have agreed to shift divisions, if necessary, to make the project acceptabletotheleague. The Chargers and Raiders are rivals in the AFC West, which could make game scheduling and other issues difficult in a shared stadium. The teams have made dear to the league and NFL owners that "you send us to LA and youll make the decision

as to who plays in what conference or division," Policy told reporters after detailing stadium plans for business leaders and a sports group at an event in downtown Los Angeles. 'There are some very interesting scenarios, depending on how all this turns out," Policy said. Policy detailed the possible division shift on a day when the teams unveiled the latestdesign update forthe65,000seat stadium, which would rise on the site of a former landfill about 12 miles &om downtown Los Angeles. The renderings show an open-air stadium wrapped in steelbands,its seating shaded by canopies, with features that range &om a nearby stage for live music performances to an authentic farmers' market. Outside, towering screens

would carry game-day highlights that could be viewed &om the parking lots. A promotional video, narrated by actor Kiefer Sutherland, boasted that the stadium bordered by palm trees would become part of a quintessential Los An-

geles experience while coddling fans. "Sunshine. Beaches. Hollywood. Where anything is possible," he says. High-end amenities would include an on-field patio "blurring the line between spectator and teammate," according to the video that depicted fans sipping drinks just steps &om a team bench. Eight acres would be reserved, rent-&ee, for an 'NFL campus," which could indude a home for the NFL Network and a western annex for the Pro

Football Hall of Fame. One prominent feature &om earlier versions vanishel. Previous plans called for a tower that could simulate lightning bolts for the Chargers or a huge ame fl honoring late owner Al Davis for the Raiders. A dominant feature is now an oversized, gleaming Vince Lombardi Trophy, the prize that goes to Super Bowl winners. A development group that includes St. Louis Rams owner Stan Kroenke is pushing a rival project in nearby Inglewood. The $1.8 billion venue on the site

of aformer horse track would be part of a sprawling development of homes, parks and office space.

Policy promoted the Raiders-Chargers plan as an ideal solution for two California teams playing in stadiums long out of date. He said the teams would attract fans &om California's

Central Coast to Mexico to a stadium with 12,000 parking spots for tailgating and easy &eeway access. League spokesman Brian McCarthy has said the NFL wants &anchises that are "strong and successful in their existing markets." Under current rules, the next opportunity for a team to file to relocate would be in January 2016. Any decision to move would have to dear a tangle of hurdles, induding winning the support of at least 24 of the 32 teams. The NFL owners meet again in October in New York, but no relocation vote is expected atthatme eting.Policy predicted there could be a deision by the league early next year.

He paused before starting the anthem when the microphonedidn'tappear to be working.

This is a news alert: The Raiders know what they' re doing. Let's just run through the list ofwhat a goodteam needs: A good, steady QB, weapons on offense, a sturdy offensive line, an edge pass rusher and playmakers on defense. Derek Carr looks better and better, Amari Cooper is goingto catch a ton of balls, the offensive line should be a strength of the team and Mack — at his new defensive end position — sometimes looks as if he can't be blocked on his way to the opposing

Another rookie, third-string quarterback Dylan Thompson,completed 4 of 6 passes for 15 yards with an interception. Tomsula said the Niners struggled to find continuity during that stretch. "A lot of times offensively and defensively in the later part of the third and even into the fourth quarter, we looked like popcorn," the coach said. eWe were popping all over the place. Instead of one continuous pop, it was pop, pop, pop, pop, pop. You can't play at all that way. Everybody's got to be in unison."

But we all said let's wait and see on this guy until he puts the pads on and goes full speed ... and Hayne's full speed Saturday was faster than everybody else trying to catch him. He also tossed in a 33-yard kickoff return and a solid punt return. Hayne is big, he has fast feet in traffic and he can run away from second-level defenders,that'sforsure. H e' llhave to prove a lot of other things in the ensuing games and practices; but if Hayne can make one or two big plays every week this summer, he's going to be on the team in the fall. This is right kind of summer for big jumps like this — the 49ers could use some more playmakers on offense, and they sure could use a great, positive international storyline, too.

Arrival of 3ason Day: Aussie fulfills potential with major By DOUG FERGUSON The Associated Press

SHEBOYGAN, Wis. (AP) — In his eighth year on the PGA Tour, Jason Day reached a major pinnacle of his career by winning the PGA Championship. And he could be sure that Tiger Woods was watching. "Game over, very happy for Jason. Great dude and well deserved. Hats off to Jordan, incredible season. Calling it early," Woods tweeted, adding in another tweet that he was watching from his new restaurant in South Florida. Always a commercial plug. Day and Woods have become good friends on the golf course, but the fact Woods tuned in to the final round at Whistling Straits brought to mind Day's rookie season when he was filled with big talent, big goals and some big talk. Going into that year, he was asked during a conference call with Australian writers if he thought Woods was aware of him. "I can't say for sure, but I think he is," said Day, who was 20 at the time. "If I was him, I would be. I watch everyone. He watches a lot of golf. He has so much time. He played 16 events — what does he do with his time? He'd be aware of me. He'd be saying, rHere's another kid coming up. It was a slow climb. Now 27, he idolized the work ethic of Woods when he was growing up in

Australia and honed that powerful swing under Colin Swatton, his current caddie. No one ever questioned his ability, only the trophies. It took him three years to win his first PGA Tour event at the Byron Nelson Championship,and four more years beforehe picked up another title at the Match Play Championship. Along the way were more nagging injuries than he cares to remember, along with whispers that he was an underachiever. All that has been put to rest. This is a new Day, who has matured into one of the top three players in the world and figures to stay there. "As long as I am healthy, I feel like I'm going to be there a long time," Day said. "I still want to accomplish that No. 1 goal of mine, which is to be the best player in the world. I'm still motivated and still very hungry for that, even after this win. Stufflike this is just the icing on top of the cake when you work so hard, and being able to achieve something like this." Not much in life has come easily for Day. His father died of cancer when Day was 12, and if not for the sacrifices of his mother to get him to a golf academy, and the nurturing of Swatton, there's no telling where he would be now. Day once shopped for usedclothes at a store where for $5 he could stuff as much as he could into a bag. "Iremember not having a hotwater tank, so we had to use a kettle for
