Woman evacuated from blaze; said it burned two of her family's homes

By GUY McCARTHY

A former principal of a now 15-year-old boy accused of killing Leila Fowler in April 2013 testified Wednesday that he was "bright" but "underachieving."

The boy was 12 years old at the time Leila, 8, was found in a pool of blood in her V alley Fo w ler Springs home April 27, 2013. She had been stabbed 22 times, mostly in the chest, and suffered at least 14 poke wounds.

The defendant, whose name is not being used because he is a juvenile, was arrested in May 2013 and charged with second-degree murder in connection with Leila's death.

Dressed in black, he occasionally looked around the Calaveras County Superior Court Department 3 courtroom, but mostly looked directly ahead.

Angela Rader wiped a tear away Wednesday as she recalled the firestorm that consumed two homes that were in

her family for five generations, in Glencoe off Valentine Gulch Road.

Rader and her family members were in the direct path of the Butte Fire two weeks ago as it blazed up out of the North Fork Mokelumne River drainage and into Calaveras County.

"It's amazing how hot that fire was," Rader, 41,said during a visitto a disaster-rel ief station set up at Calaveras County Government Center in San Andreas. "It just ripped right through there. We left Wednesday, the day it started. With my 15-year-old there was no way I was taking chances with his life."

The Butte Fire was first reported at 2:26p.m. Sept. 9 near Charamuga Ranch and Butte Mountain Road. Rader saidshe believes the blaze burned her family's homes to the ground two or three days later.

GUEST OPINION

vercomin a rriers o rea o ioi a use Behavioral Health professionals across the country are becoming increasingly concerned by the growing rates of opioid painkiller abuse and addiction. Unfortunately, Tuolumne County is seeing particularly high rates of opioid abuse, ranking sixth in the state for deaths from prescription opioids.

Opioids include prescription narcotic painkillers such as hydrocodone (e.g. Vicodin), oxycodone (e.g.

OxyContin or Percocet), morphine and codeine.

The National Institutes of Health define opioids as medications that relieve pain by reducing the intensity of pain signals reaching the brain. Because they affect the part of the brain involved in emotions and rewards,some people also feel euphoria after consuming these medications. In o t her w ords, al-

though opiates were developed to ease physicalpain,they also affect feelings of emotional pain. The effort to reduce physical and/or emotional pain may drive some people to abuse opiates and take more than prescribed or request higher dosages from their physicians than may be necessary.

Opioids can have many poten-

YOUR VIEWS

tially dangerous effects, including drowsiness, confusion, respiratory arrest or cardiac arrest.Contin-

The message is: opioid abuse can lead to serious medical complications, including overdose and death.

Many people who struggle with addiction or abuse aren't even aware of the dependency or the potential harm caused by long-term drug use. In most cases, people have beenprescribed opiatesby theirdoctor and may not realize the dangers associated with their use until the damage is already well underway.

Not surprisingly, it is rare for people to seektreatment foropiate addictions or abuse due to the fear of the return of pain and the ongoing legal availability through prescriptions.

Typically, Tuolumne County Behavioral Health staff first sees people with prescription abuse issues during an evaluation in the hospital emergency department due to over-

Pope Francis goes to Washington He is the only man in the world with this job title, but from the moment Pope Francis was hired, he eschewed the fancy trappingsofhispredecessorstoavoid the isolation of privilege. So there he was Wednesday, pulling up to President Barack Obama's rental house on Pennsylvania Avenue in a boxy little Fiat.

After the pope's brief speech on the White House lawn, he switched cars and headed for the parade, where he waved to thousands of admirers from his popemobile, a modified Jeep Wrangler made by union workers in Toledo, Ohio.

Surrounded by emergency vehicles and swarmed by security, Pope Francis nonetheless managed to persuade grimfaced SecretService agents to fetch babies from the crowd so that he could kiss them. My favorite moment during live coverage came when agents tried to shoo away 5-year-old Sophie Cruz. The little girl in pigtails made eye contact with Pope Francis, and he waved for her to come to him. An agent lifted her so that the pope could kiss and embrace her.

Volkswagen CEO steps down, takes responsibility BERLIN (AP) — Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn resigned Wednesday, days after admitting that the world's top-selling carmaker had rigged diesel emissions to pass U.S. tests during his tenure.

initial assessments may have counted some outbuildings as homes, Cal Fire officials at Frogtown incident command said.

The Butte Fire burn area was mapped at 70,868 acres with containment estimated at 87 percent as of Wednesday evening.

A firefi ghter who was injured Tuesday and taken to a burn unit at University of California, Davis, was recovering. More detail about how he was injured emerged Wednesday.

He was at work when he stepped into a hot stump hole and sustained first and seconddegree burns, Mike Mohler, of South Ops and Butte Fire's public information team, said at Frogtown.

"That's a big safety hazard because they' ve been burning for days now," Mohler said. "They can build up a crust on the surface and it looks like you' re walking on ash. It's like falling into an oven."

The bodies of two men were discovered last week in neighborhoods that were under mandatory evacuations at the time.

No other injuries or fatalities due to the Butte Fire had been reported as of Wednesday evening.

More than 2,150 fire personnel remained assigned to the Butte incident, according to Cal Fire. An additional 600 Pacific Gas & Electric crew members were in the burn area, a utility spokesman said.

"We have 150 customers without power and expect to restore all of them tonight," Paul Moreno of PG&E said Wednesday evening. "Before midnight is our ETA for restoration. These are folks right in the burn area.

These are homes where it's safe to restore power, all in Calaveras County."

The cost of fighting the Butte Fire is $56 million and rising, according to Cal Fire.

The cause of the Butte Fire remains under investigation.

PG&E officials last week said a livetree may have contacted one of its power lines near the point of ignition for the Butte Fire. The Union Democrat reported Sept.18 that several residents believe they know where it started, under a power line that crosses Charamuga Ranch south of Butte Mountain Road.

time she was principal of Toyon Middle School in Valley Springs, testified that she met the defendant during a "failure to thrive hearing." The hearings are typically geared toward students who are underachieving, she said.

At the time, the defendant was in the process of transitioning from sixth-grade at Jenny Lind Elementary School to seventh-grade at Toyon Middle School.

McInturf said she would hold meetings with the boy to review his grades, attendance and behavior. During the meetings, the boy was "always respectful," McInturf said, and would "always answer honestly."

McInturf said the defendant was "bright" and had "strong abilities" — but was "underachieving."

"The grades would not refiect his level of intelligence, "she added.

A 16-year-old boy who said he considers the defendant a friend testified Wednesday that he spoke with the defendant the week after the murder.

The boy said the defendant told him that, on the day of the murder, he saw Leila being stabbedby a man when he came out ofa bathroom.

The teen said he told the defendant that day thatsome people believed he was the killer,to which he said the defendant replied, "That is what I' ve heard, but they swabbed me."

Heather Wailer, who was a deputy probation officer at El Dorado County Juvenile Hall at the same time the defendant was in custody there,

was alsocalled totestify Wednesday.

Wailer said she heard a "disturbing" exchange between thedefendant and another minor in November 2013.

She said she heard the defendant tell another boy that the boy could beat another boy to death with a baseball bat and "get away with it." The other boy seemed "standoffish" in response to the defendant's words, Wailer said.

The crime was reported at 12:15 p.m. April 27, 2013. Leila was taken to Mark Twain Medical Center in San Andreas, where she was pro-

nounced dead at 1:01 p.m.

The defendant was arrested May 11, 2013.

He is not being tried as an adult.

His trial, which began Sept. 15, is being held in open court due to a statute that allows juvenile murder trials to be public.

No jury will decide the case. Instead, Calaveras CountySuperior Court Judge Thomas A. Smith will deliver a verdict.

The trial is scheduled to resume today.

The 10-page complaint argues that the park service should have required Aramark to purchase all intangible and intellectual property fiom Delaware North, which valued the assets last year at $51 million.

The primary concern in the wake of the fire is possible impacts on water quality, not water supply.

"We do have concerns," Figueroa said Wednesday. 'The fire originated about 10 miles upriver fi'om Pardee, along nine miles of river. That first night it jumped the river, and it did burn on both sides of the river.

There have been no impacts to water supply or water quality to date, Figueroa said.

"In general, fire can increase surface erosion in burnt areas and can generate increased pollutant loads of nutrients, suspended and dissolved solids, and taste and odor compounds," Figueroa said.

East Bay MUD has other water storage reservoirs that can compensate for any possible delays caused by erosion affecting Pardee, Figueroa said. Utility officials are not aware ofany damaged or destroyed homes located in the North Fork Mokelumne watershed.

BureauofLand Management The federal Bureau of Land Management owns about 20,000 acres of the Mokelumne River watershed, said David Christy of BLM's Mother Lode Field Office.

"We administer part of the watershed," Christy said. "There is concern, I can tell you that. Because of the fire, that burns vegetation off the slopes and, if there is erosion, that could end up in the river.

"The Mokelumne River watershed is about a half-million acres," Christy said. aWe're about 20,000 acres that we own in the watershed, and about 4,000 ofthatwefi gure burned in the fire.

Pacific Gas & Electric has agreements with agencies including East Bay MUD to move water downstream for their use.

Crews with PG&E have inspected penstocks that convey water to the powerhouse, and the powerhouse itself, and found no issues due to the Butte Fire, Moreno said.

There are hazardous trees, killed or dying fiom the Butte Fire, near Electra Road and other roads that will need to be cut down.

PG&E owns about 1,000 acres impacted by the Butte Fire, and crews will be patrolling that land, Moreno said. The utility may replant trees in the burn with saplings grown from a seed bank that has seeds from native trees in the same elevation band.

TRIAL

more than 100 years, under the terms of its original concession contract in 1993.

According to Delaware North, the company's original contract included an agreement for any succeeding concession operator to buy out all of its assets.

The park service put the contract out to bid in July 2014 with a requirement for the successor company to purchase Delaware North's "other property," which included furniture, trade fixtures, equipment and vehicles.

During the bidding process, Delaware North claims to have sought and obtained an amendment to the bid document that required a successor company to also purchase all of its intangible assets, including "intellectual property, customer database and Internet-related intangibles."

The park service announced the selection of Yosemite Hospitality, LLC, a subsidiary of Aramark, as the new concession operator on June 16. Accordingto the lawsuit,the park service allegedly breached its contract with Delaware North by no longer requiring Aramark to purchase Delaware North's intangible assets and intellectual property.

Delaware North is now seeking damages in an amount to be determined at trial, including attorney fees.

"We are now confused and disheartened that NPS seems unwilling to honor its contractual obligation by failing to require the new concessioner to buy and pay fair value for the assets that we use to operate Yosemite," Delaware North stated.

"Simply put, NPS has breached our contract and left us with no choice but to take legal action."

Yosemite spokesman Scott Gediman said the park service does not comment on pending litigation.

Aramark is set to take over concession operations at the park on March 1, 2016. A 60-day congressional review period for the new contract expires Oct. 6, though Gediman said the park service hasn't received any comments so far.

Despite the lawsuit, Delaware North vows to ensure a smooth transition next year.

"Regardless, we stand ready to do our part to ensure a smooth transition of concession services at Yosemite National Park and remain

dedicated to caring for Yosemite National Park and making each Yosemite guest experience, moment and memory the best it can be," the company stated.

THE UN' DEMO CRAT

HealthyMedicine Youth drinking subject for mentors Volunteers from Amador-Tuolumne Community Action Agency's Mentoring Works program participated in a cDon't Be A Stat" presentation recently by the Friday Night Live program staff. The activity simulated alcohol impairment with goggles created by the "Fatal Vision" company.

"These goggles alter the wearer's vision, making their view that of someone just under the legal limit for alcohol consumption, at the legal limit, twice the legal limit and over the legal limit at night," said Mentoring Works Coordinator Elena Linehan.

The mentors were then given simple tasks such as tossing bean bags at a target, matching shapes by size and color on a mat, or walking down a hallway while avoiding hazard cones.

"It's amazing how simple tasks can become so complicated when wearing drunk goggles. The first thing I did was walk into the wall," Linehan said.

Mentors were given tips on preventing underage drinking and learned statistics from Olivia Sorensen, Friday Night Live Program assis tant coordinator.

The "Don't Be A Stat" presentation included information from the most recent California Healthy Kids Survey of Tuolumne County students.

For example, 36 percent ofninth-gradersreported having used alcohol atleast once in the past 30 days.

Sorensen also included information on distracted driving, including that 45 percent of Californians said they have made a driving mistake while talking on the cell phone.

Both the Mentoring Works program and theFriday Night Live program are funded throughTuolumne County Behavioral Health grant funding to the Amador-Tuolumne Community Action Agency.

The equipment for the "Don't Be A Stat" presentation was provided through the Behavioral Health grant funds, Linehan said.

Mentoring Works matches community volunteers with children in the community in need of a friend through a one-onone mentoring program. More than 300 youth have been served since 1997.

Friday Night Live is part of a statewide coalition providing youth-lead programs on drug and alcohol prevention for high school and elementary school students.

Child -safetyseattips AAA TIPS AAA has identified the most common hazardous shortcuts and provides the following tips to ensure child safety while riding in a vehicle: "I'm only driving a mile from home, somy son doesn't needto be secured in his carseat sinceit's a short trip."

Tip: You should buckle up properly on every trip-no matter the distance-since most crashes occur close to home.

"I'm picking up several kidsaftersoccerpractice and I'm going to put my 8-yearold daughterin the front seat soall the children can fit into the car."

Tip: All children under age 13 are safest when riding in the back seat and restrained in the appropriate child restraint system.

"Wewill be driving more peoplein our car thanwe have seatbelts. Sinceit's a short trip, it's not a big deal forsomeone toride on another person's lap."

Tip: It's never safe to ride on a person's lap. Each passenger should be properly restrained on every trip.

"My son is 10 years old and 4'6" tall. It's safe for him to stop using his booster seatand only use aseat belt now."

Tip: Children age 8 or older, or who are 4'9" or taller, may use the vehicle seat belt if it fits properly with the lap belt low on the hips, touching the upper thighs, and the shoulder belt crossing the center of the chest. If children are not tall

enough for proper belt fit, they must ride in a booster or car seat.

Children under age 8 must be properly buckled into a car seat or booster in the back seat.

BOOSTER SEATS For many parents, the decision to move their child out of a booster seat and into an adult safety belt system is often confusing.

Booster seats allow a lap/ shoulder belt to properly fit a child. Without this seat, a child is at great risk of being ejected or seriously injured in a crash, because the seat belt alone cannot secure them properly. But when is a child ready to move into the adult belt system?

Parents should use this five step test to determine if their child is ready to move out of a booster seat into the adult seat belt system.

• Does your child sit all the way back against the auto seat?

• Do your child's knees bend comfortably at the edge of the auto seat?

• Does the belt cross the shoulder between the neck and arm?

• Isthe lap belt as low as possible, touching the thighs?

• Can your child stay seated like this for the whole trip?

For more information on how to properly install and select the nght car seat for your child, go online to www.safercar.gov/parents/ CarSeats/How-To-Install-CarSeats.htm.

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

Avoiding toxic relationships best for health D EAR ~ : I w as se v erely abused, physically and emotionally, when I was growing up, mostly by my mother and older sister. After many yearsoftherapy,Ihave turned my life around and finally am able to feel like a worthwhile person.

The trouble is, my older sister continues to be verbally abusive every time we get together, which, fortunately, is not too often. I recently bit the bullet and tried again, getting together with her and my two other sisters. Sure enough, "Betty" took the opportunity to taunt and yell at me, and ended up swinging her fists at me. This resulted in a PTSD episode for me.

I' ve finally decided to have nothing further to do with Betty, but it leaves me wIth feelings of guilt, since she is my sister. Am I justified in cutting ofI' our relationship? —TIRED OF BEING ABUSED DEAR TIRED: Yes. Your abusive mother obviously left Betty with

Sudden vision disturbance may be more than migraine DEAR DR. ROACH:I am a healthy 58-yearold fem ale.Oneyearago,Iwas sitting on a &iend's porch when suddenlyitwas asifsomeone had poured thick oil over my left eye. After consulting with my eye doctor and my family physician, the occurrence was diagnosed as an ocular migraine. Bloodwork and a routine physical turned up nothing abnormal. Both doctors said it was nothing to worry about and that it most likely would not occur again. However, Ihave an episodeabout every three to four months. Always the left eye, and it always clears up within five minutes.

What is your take on this? — J.M. ANSWER: Your doctors may be right, but I'm not 100 percent convinced, basedon what you have told me.Temporary loss of vision (called amaurosis fugax, from Greek anti Latin roots) can be caused byseveralconditions,som eof which are sight-threatening. But there are three particularly important causes

that I think of in your case.

The first is a blood vessel problem, most commonly an embolus (a small piece ofdebris, such as cholesterol plaque orblood clot) that blocks the

Ocular or retinal migraine is a second possibility. These usually first occur in people who are under 40, often those with a family history. Some people describe "scintillation" in the visual field.

These last five minutes to an hour or so, and arefollowed by a headache within an hour. You are older than most people when diagnosed by this, and you didn' t descrIbe the headache, which makes this diagnosis less likely, although still possible.

In addition, I would be concerned about temporal arteritis, also called

Consistent communication dissolves barriers. New professional opportunities appear after 3/8. Transitions take your focus after 3/23. Let love guide you.

To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.

giant cell arteritis. Vision loss is not usually the first symptom of this inflammatory disease (headache and a painful sensation after chewing a short while are the usual symptoms), but vis ion loss can be permanent and is almost always preventable if the diagnosis is made and treatment begun promptly.

A complete physical is a good start.

An exam by an ophthalmologist is essential.

Blood testing for temporal arteritis may not have been part of the routine blood work you received. As you are 58, most experts would obtain an ultrasoundorMRI ofthecarotid artery to lookfor a source of embolism, and would at least consider an echocardiogram and MRI of the brain. The diagnosis of retinal migraine is made only after being sure there isn't something else causing the vision loss.

DEAR DR. ROACH: I have a twitching of my left eye. My face draws up when it happens. I went to a doctor and he gave me 15 Botox shots around my eye and said I will need them every three months. They help some. Can you tell me what it could be? — F.G.

ANSWER: This is a special type of dystonia, a movement disorder,called blepharospasm (blef-arow-spasm).

It's an involuntary contracture of the

orbicularis oculi muscle, which goes around the eye. Other muscles may be involved, giving your face the "drawn up" appearance.

The botulinum toxin the doctor injects you with partially paralyzes the muscle, preventing the spasms, but the toxin wears off. The condition is com-

mon, but in most cases is mild enough or intermittent enough that such powerful treatments aren't needed. In a few cases, surgery is required.

Some are tougher than others

By PHILLIP ALDER

Today in history Today is Thursday, September 24, the 267th day of 2015. There are 98 days left in the year.

Today's Highlight in History: On September 24, 1890, the president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Wilford Woodruff, wrote a manifesto renouncing the practice of plural marriage, or polygamy.

On this date: In 1869, thousands of businessmen were ruined in a Wall Street panic known as "Black Friday" after financiersJay Gould and James Fisk attempted to corner the gold market.

In 1934, Babe Ruth made his farewell appearance as a player with the New York Yankees ina game against the Boston Red Sox. (The Sox won, 5-0.)

In 1957, the Los Angelesbound Brooklyn Dodgers played their last game at Ebbets Field, defeating the Pittsburgh Pirates 2-0.

In1960, the USS Enterprise, the first nuclearpowered aircraft carrier, was launched at Newport News, Virginia. "The Howdy Doody Show" ended a nearly 13year run.

In 1976, former hostage Patricia Hearst was sentenced to seven years in prison for her part in a 1974 bank robbery in San Francisco carried out by the Symbionese Liberation Army. (Hearst was released after 22 months after receiving clemency from President Jimmy Carter.)

In 1988, Canadian sprinter Ben Johnson won the men' s 100-meter dash at the Seoul (sohl) Summer Olympicsbut he was disqualified three days later for using anabolic steroids. Members of the eastern Massachusetts Episcopal diocese elected Barbara C. Harris the first female bishop in the church's history.

Getting the r i ght d i agnosis, at the right time, is key to good health care.But despite lots of focus on health care quality over the past 15 years, Tuesday's Institute of Medicine report found diagnosticerrors have gotten too little attention and said urgent improvements are needed.

The report is a "serious wakeup call," said Dr. Victor Dzau of the National Academies of Science, Engineering and Medicine,

Someti psforpatients to reduce odds of being misdiagnosed The Institute of Medicine says patient input is critical as health providers try to figure out the right diagnosis. Here are tips from the IOM's reportTuesday, adapted from the National Patient Safety Foundation and the Society to Improve Diagnosis in Medicine: • Don't hesitate to ask questions: What could be causing my problem? What else could it be?

When will I get test results? What if my symptoms worsen?

• Be clear and complete in describing your illness. Bring notes so you recall when symptoms began, what makes them better or worse, or if they seem related to medications, meals or certain times of day.

• Know your family medical history; relatives may have had similar symptoms.

• Keep records of test results, referrals, hospital admissions.

• lf the doctor doesn't call promptly with test results, call to ask for them.

• Bring an up-to-date list of all medications to each doctor visit.

Know the doses, what each is for, and learn what side effects and interactions may occur.

• Learn about your illness, tests or procedures through reliable online sources or the library.

which oversees the institute.

Possibly the most well-known diagnostic error in recent memory occurred last year when a Liberian man sick with Ebola initially was misdiagnosed in a Dallas emergency room as having sinusitis. Thomas Eric Duncan returned two days later, sicker, and eventually died.

Diagnosis problems s eldom make such dramatic headlines.

The person whose colon cancer

diagnosis was delayed by several months, or whose early signs of appendicitis were mistaken for a virus, may not even realize they

experienced an error. Others are fortunate enough to recover despite a misdiagnosis.

In fact, Tuesday's report found there's no good count of diagnostic errors, or of how often they lead to serious consequences — it's not

part ofstandard medical reporting.

But among the evidence that led the committee to conclude most people eventually will experience this problem: By one conservativeestimate, 1 in 20 adults who seeks outpatient care each year experiences a diagnostic error, a number that adds up over time. Diagnostic errors make up the leading type of paid malprac-

The report says improvement requires better teamwork and communication between health providers — doctors, nurses, radiologists, lab workers — and urges patients to ask, "Could it be something else?" It urges health providers to make pa-

It alsourges health care organizations to better identify diagnostic errors and near-misses so providers can learn &om them in a nonpunitive way — and to use technology to help. Many electronic medical records now have "decision support" tools embedded to remind doctors of possible alternative diagnoses to check.

NEW YORK — Baseball people tell a wonderful story about Yogi Berra and the most famous home run in history.

Yogi and a couple of his Yankees pals went to Game 3 of the Dodgers-Giants playoff forthe 1951 National League pennant, eager to see who they'd face the next day in the World Series opener. But when Brooklyn took a late 4-1 lead, Yogi told his buddies it was time to leave the Polo Grounds.

Yep, Yogi said it was over.

They needed to beat the lateafternoon trafftc. So the man cherished for saying "it ain' t over till it's over" missed seeing Bobby Thomson's home

Carr hopes his career-high 351 yards passing, three touchdowns and last-minute comeback to beat the Baltimore Ravens are signs of what theRaiders are capable of offensively if they just stick to the game plan and execute.

NBA Harden, Davis hope they' ve closed gap on Curry NEW YORK (AP) — The Beard and the Brow checked the same place first when they got a look at the NBA 2K16 video game.

"My rating," James Harden said.

"My rating," echoed Anthony Davis, "and my jump shot. See how far I can shoot. That's the first thing I do, every time."

Soon enough, they can see how their teams rate in the NBA's Western Conference.

Harden, Davis and league MVP Stephen Curry earned cover honors for the new release of the popular game, and all three were in New York on Monday nightfor a launch party.

It was the kickoff to their last week of summer vacation — an especially short one for Curry after Golden State won the NBA title.

Their teams and most in the NBA open training camp next Tuesday.

Curry said the focus of his offseason workouts was on getting stron-

JUMPERS Continued from PageC1 sacrifice her body to keep a play alive was a big shot in the arm for the Jumpers.

"It's just sacrifice for the team," Abenth said. "The ball should never hit the floor, so if I have to throw myself on the ground to keep it up, that's what I am going to do.

As a volleyball player, it's all about heart. You never give up on a ball, no matter what."

What makes Abenth's performance more impressive, is that she was playing a new position, one that she had never played. For the first time in her volleyball career, she was the main setter instead ofher more comfortable role as a libero.

"We made some adjustments to the roster over the last five days," said head coach Rob Hoyt. "Annie steppedin and played setter for the first time in her life.

She did amazing for it being her first time."

Chelsea Wertz helped cut the Taft lead to 11-7 with a brilliant soft kill. That would be as close as the Jumpers would get in the first set.

'Vile couldn't dig t h eir hits," Adams said. "We would move to one place to where they hit it a previous time, and then they would go to the other side. Every time we would just miss it. We also struggled with tips tonight."

The Jumpers came out on fire to start the second set.

Abenth started the set off in the right direction with a perfect serve that handcuffed a Taft defender. Following an Egger kill and an Adams ace, Columbia led 5-2.

ger and faster to prevent injury, as well as the shooting and dribbling that arealready at or near the top of the league.

"It's not like I' ll go in and try to implement apostgame, work on a hook shot or things like that," Curry said.

"I' ve just got to be able to take what I do well and make it even better."

His Warriors knocked out Davis' New Orleans Pelicans in the first round and Harden's Houston Rockets in the Western Conference finals.

Now thosestars are anxious to see if their teams have closed the gap.

Davis has seen one preseason ranking of the Pelicans as the No. 8 team in the NBA, which gives him confidence it can be done quickly.

"It can happen in a matter of a year, couple of years," he said. "I mean, we were 12th in the West coming into the season last year, made the playoffs in the eighth spot. Just off las year they got us No. 8 overall in the league, so to go from 12th in

the West to 8 overall in the league, that's a huge jump."

The Rockets made a stunning comeback from 3-1 down in the second round against the Los Angeles Clippers, but won't even be considered the best team in Texas going into this season after San Antonio loaded up with the signings of LaMarcus Aldridge and David West.

"We like it that way. No one expected us to be in the conference finals last year, and we like being underrated,kind of sneaking up on teams," Harden said. "So we' ll continue to work, continue to build our chemistry, our camaraderie, and be ready for the regular season."

college recruitments, decisions to turn pro, signing with agents and even buying pets. Davis owns a monkey, while O'Neal purchased a horse he has ridden only once after it threw him on that first attempt.

But the video game itselfis serious business. Besides seeing how highly he was rated, Davis checked to see if his appearance and shot-blocking ability were right. Harden even performs the "stir the pot" move he does in the NBA when he gets hot.

Curry's underhand scoop shot layup was added to his video game character' srepertoire,and heparticipated for the first time in the game's motion capture technology after fans

"So I played the game, checked the release and timing," Curry said. "It looks prettygood and pretty realistic."

NBA 2K16 is available for purchase Friday.

"We were in

a r e a l ly pumped mood to start the second set because we did get a lot of good rallies in the first set," Egger said. "We just wanted to come out and

play our best. We just wanna have fun. That's the most important thing. It's all about the attitude."

Taft battled back, and eventually took a 11-7 lead.

Columbia couldn't keep any of the momentum on its side.

The Jumpers would take one step forward, and then two steps back.

"We are still l e arning about each other," Hoyt said.

"So, it's tough. We are learning, but it is momentum. You have to control the tempo with your passing and hitting, and we j ust d i dn' t have the opportunity to get enough down balls and put them on their heels. For the most part, we improved a lot."

When the Jumpers needed a big play, or a key block, it was Egger, who was in the middle of things. Playing with a bandaged right thumb, which was hurt during a weekendtournament, Egger continuously found holes in the Taft defense.

"Caitie is a phenomenal volleyball player," Abenth said. "I' ve been working with her since freshman year in high school. I' ve never been a setter until now. Whenever I played around with setting, it was always with Caitie.

She would always hit with me and I would try to set to her. We just click really well and Caitie is just an amazing volleyball player."

After losing the second set 25-15, the Jumpers had no answer to the Taft offensive

W ith every point,the players believed in themselves just a littlemore. Regardless ofthe score, they kept fighting.

"We try not to play the score," Hoyt said."It's sound funny to think of, but you can't play the score. You have to play each possession.

What is your job, responsibil-

ity, base and where are you supposed to be on that possession? You have to have six girls doing it at one time.

And then the ball has to go

49ERS Continued from PageC1 things. It's not the same," Tomsula

said. "There's really not things to compare it to, what we' re asking him to do and what he's been asked to do any other year."

Kaepernick found a rhythm fartoo late in Sunday's 43-18 loss at Pittsburgh, bouncing back from 61 yards passing in the first half to finish with 835 yards in the air. That included a 75-yard touchdown pass to new target Torrey Smith and six completions in all to Smith.

Still, Kaepernick was vulnerable and took five sacks. That comes after he was sacked 52 times last season, second-most in the NFL behind then Jaguars rookie Blake Bortles' 55.

BERRA

Smith is San Francisco's top offseason acquisition after he signed a five-year deal with $22 million guaranteed that could pay him as much as $40 million. Yet he and Kaepernick never connected during the preseason and finally seem to be getting in sync on game day asthey have regularly shown on the practice field.

"It's actually easier in games because it's new people," Smith said of the opposing defense. "You just work hard and get it down and just translate to the game."

The 49ers (1-1) will be under more pressure to protect Kaepernick on Sunday at first-place Arizona.

As an offense, the hope is to build off some of the big plays made late against the Steelers, such as Smith's touchdown catch and even Anquan Boldin's 14-yard TD reception that

also came in the fourth quarter.

Left guard Alex Boone points to failures in the red zone as an area San Francisco must fix, and fast. The

schedule early is daunting, and Sunday is the first division game in another hostile environment.

So far, atleast,the 49ers are doing a better job getting plays in on time to avoid the regular clock issues that caused so many problems in recent years.

Boone acknowledged the offensive line must do more to avoid mistakes that lead to Kaepernick being rushed or unableto see a play through as planned.

"Another thing that's kind of upsetting when you watch that game: when you get into the red zone and you can' t score three touchdowns," Boone said.

"Now, would those three touch-

downs have helped us win? I don' t know. But at the end of the day you get in the red zone, especially inside the 10, inside the 5, you' ve got to put the ball in the end zone. I don't care who you are. You start not being able to do that and teams won't respect you, they won't fear you and then you' re in for a long day."

Notes: Smith, WR Bruce Ellington, RB Carlos Hyde and TEs Vance McDonald and Blake Bell all were expectedto practice in some capacity, perhaps some limited. None were expectedto be seriousenough to keep them out of Sunday's game, Tomsula said.... RB Reggie Bush, who hurt his calf in the Sept. 14 opener against Minnesota and didn't play at Pittsburgh, was still rehabbing and to be evaluated by the training staff.

Lawyer for Kane accuser: Evidence bag secretly left in door

The Sonora Wildcat junior varsity boys' water polo team defeatedvisiting Tokay of Lodi 9-1 Tuesday night.

Levi Houghton lead the Wildcats with five goals.

Keanu Perez scored twice and Connor McCluskey and Ethan Wright each

BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — A rape investigation involving Chicago Blackhawks star forward Patrick Kane took a bizarre turn Wednesday when the attorney for the accuser said an empty paper bag that once held the woman' s rape kithad been secretly placed in the doorway of her mother's home.

Kane's attorney said both sides in the case have been told that none of Kane's DNA was found 'from the waist down" on the woman.

Police officials responded that no packaging is missing from the rape kit.

"Something seriously has gone amiss," attorney Thomas Eoannou toldreporters during a news conference, where he held up the wrinkled brown bag that he said pointed to the possibility of evidence tampering.

He said the woman's mother discovered the bag Tuesday afternoon when she came home from work for lunch.

She foundthe bagfolded up between a stormdoorand herfrontdoor,he said.

It was the first time Eoannou has spoken publicly about the case that

scored once.

"We came out from the beginning with a strong press on defense and never looked back," said Wildcat head coach Josh Martin. "Our counterattack was solid and we were very effective out of

the center."

Pilots blinded by 49ers stadium lights SANTA CLARA (AP)Pilot Christina Kurowicki was preparing to land at San Jose Mineta International Airport in March when bright light flooded the cockpit, impairing her night vision and making it difficult to see outside.

Kurowicki is one of at least six commercial pilots who have filed complaints with the Federal Aviation Administration after being blinded by bright light coming from the 49ers' Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, saying it' s a safety hazard, NBC Bay Area reported Wednesday.

Last year, the FAA issued a safety-alert bulletin for pilots about the lights.

FAA public affairs manager Ian Gregor wrote in a statement that most of

the reports itreviewed were when the stadium's scoreboard was being calibrated, making it brighter

RAIDERS Continued from PageC1 we do in practice, we saw we can score points against one of the best teams in the league."

The Raiders were counting on Carr to take a big step forward in his second year at quarterback with the additions of play-making receivers Amari Cooper and Michael Crabtree.

A slow start and a bruised hand cut short his opener after less than a half, but Carr showed big signs of progress against a Ravens defense that had shut down Peyton

has been the source of intense speculation and rumor since early August, when Kane was accused of assaulting a young woman in his waterfront mansion after they met at a nightclub.

Kane last week said he did nothing wrong and expected to be absolved. He alsoapologized for the distraction he has caused his family, teammates, the Blackhawks organization and fans.

Eoannou said the person that le the evidence bag did not knock on the doororring the doorbell.

"It could have been there a day and a half," he said, because the woman used the back door when she left for work that morning.

He said the bag is authentic, labeled with personal identifying information for the woman, details on where the rape kit was used and the initials of the nurses who administered the kit.

Players who hit ref in alternative school SAN ANTONIO (AP)A Texas high school football coach acknowledged he directed two of his players to hit a referee during a game early this month, accordingto the school's principal.

In an internal school district statement, John Jay High School principal Robert Harris said assistant coach Mack Breed told him he directed the students to hit the referee because the ref had used racial slurs and had missed calls. Details from the statement were first reported Wednesday by ESPN. The r eferee, Robert Watts, has denied using any slurs.

The coach "wanted to take full responsibility for his actions. Mr. Breed at one point during our con-

versationstated that he should have handled the referee himself, " Harris wrote in his statement.

The two suspended students, Michael Moreno and Victor Rojas, appeared Wednesday at separate disciplinary hea r ings, which were closed to the public. Both were ordered to complete 75 days in alternativeschool before becoming eligible to return to their regular classes Jan. 15, accordingto their attorney, Jesse Hernandez.

Their punishment had ranged from assignment to an alternative school to expulsion.

Speaking with reporters after Wednesday's hearing, Hernandez cited the Breed statement, saying t hat if the two players hadn' t been died by the coach and if the referee hadn' t used such language, "they wouldn't have done this and they regret it."

its chain of custody of evidence in thiscase is unassailable,"a statement

from the suburban Buffalo department said.

Eoannou said he wants the FBI or state police to probe how the bag left the custody of investigators. It's not clear how the bag got to the mother' s home or what effect it may have on the investigation, he said.

An FBI official in Buffalo said the agency does not conduct independent investigations on local matters.

"Absent a specific allegation of a federalcrime or a request from a local agency for assistance, the FBI will not be opening an investigation," Assistant Special Agent in Charge Holly a statement. "This evidence has been Hubert said.

8 THINGS WE LEARNED AT CHI CAGOLAND

A couple questions we had to ask — ourselves Should they put the four Gibbs drivers in the Homestead finale and be done with it?

KEN'S CALL:Let's at least go through themotions fi rst.

ROB'S RAMBLINGS:How about three and Ryan Newman.

Yeah, I know, it's hard to get excited about the 1-mile New Hampshire Motor .C+

Speedway, which just doesn't seem to arousemuch passionamong race fans.

Which non-Chaser, if any, wins one of the final nine races?

KEN'S CALL:I'm going with Greg Biffle.

ROB'S RAMBLINGS:Let's go out on a limb here. Kyle Larson getsfirst Cup win at Dover.

But sometimes you have to cave to the marketingangle,and you know, Loudon is onlyabout an hour or so from Boston.

We' re buying that one. Absolutely, if

Chicago can actually mean Joliet, which is about 40 miles away, and you adjust by calling it Chicagoland, then why not?

No? Even better!

Let'sget this straight. If he'd wanted to fight with Jimmie in Joliet, he could've done it. But these guys simply don' t fight. Too rich (i.e., soft) for that. And maybe that's a good thing. But still, an aggravated Kevin Harvick is always worth some entertainment points, and
