Death threats made by a student at Soulsbyville Elementary School were reported to law enforcement by administration Thursday, a standard practiceat the school, according to Superintendent Jeff Winfield. On Sept. 22, a student told a teacher "I have a plan for everyone at the school." On Oct. 5, a bus driver overheard the student tell another student, 'You will die.

message to students.

The officer will meet with the student, staff, and often parentsto discuss the consequences of the student's actions.

"If the student has been mean-spirited or threatening in any way we typically ask for law enforcement to come and be part of that conversation with the family."

Fire restrictions liRed for Stanislaus National Forest Prescribed burns planned in Yosemite National Park

"Most likely weal start around the end of next week or the week of the 19th," Wuchner said. 'We want to try to burn into a storm, so that we can take advantage of cooler weather and precipitation to temper the burn at the end of it. "We want it warm and dry enough to get good consumption," Wuchner said. 'Take a day and half initially, and four to five days of burn down time. There will be residual smoke. Then we put it on patrol status at that point." Park visitors are tired of smoke, and fire personnel in Yosemite are, too, Wuchner said. "But if we don't continue doing prescribed 6re and other methods of reducing fuels, we have the potential for larger fires," Wuchner

When Mark Nouillan went into the hospital to get a mastectomy, another man laughed at him and said, "Men don' t get breast cancer." That stereotypeis something Nouillan, 48, is trying to fight. While in the U.S., men make up less than 1 percent of allcases of breast cancer, 450 men die from it each year, Nouillan said. "It's relevant. Especially if you' re the guy that gets it. Your family would be devastated," Nouillan said. Male breastcancer is a rare cancer that forms in the

breast tissue of men. Male breast cancer is most common

in older men, though it can happen at any age. Nouillan was diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer two years ago at age 46. His girl&iend randomly grazed his right nipple and it felt unusually hard. "She felt it like that," Nouillan said snapping his fingers. His girl&iend asked him to have it checked out, so he went to the doctor, who then senthim toa breast-care specialist. At the time Nouillan was living in his native Scotland. From 2000 to 2010,Nouillan lived in Groveland and worked as a nature photographer. Nouillan is a career photographer and w orked for many years for Meadow Group Newspapers in the United Kingdom and has taken photos of Princess Diana, Luciano Pavarotti and famous athletes like Andy Roddick and John McEnroe. After getting a biopsy and later undergoing a single mastectomy, the lymph nodes in his right arm/armpit area were removed. Then Nouillan

Gas exports and price hikes linked

(98 percent) of AFT contributions to federal candidates go to Democrats. But a quarter of state and local employees are Republicans, and another 30 percent are independents. Be prepared for a heated argument at the Court. Justice Elena Kagan, an adamant union supporter, insists the Court has no business overturning the longstanding opt out arrangement. On the other side, Justice Samuel Alito has signaled he wants to liberate public workers from any compulsory fees. Three other conservative justices are clearly in that camp, but five votes will be

It has been less than three months since Californians received their latest severe lesson in the laws of supply and demand, unfairly applied. Gasoline prices, which had dropped almost $2 per gallon from their 2014 peaks, suddenly spiked by more than a dollar when two refineries in the state had outages. The refineries are back online, but pricesstillhave notreturned to previous levels. Now switch the subject to natural gas, where the House of Representatives voted overwhelmingly last year for the LNG Permitting Certainty and Transparency Act, which might better be called the "Let's Send Our Big New Supplies of Natural Gas Overseas Act." Many Congress members who less than 10 years ago were loudly decrying America's dependence on foreign oil and natural gas voted for this bill, which gives the federal Energy Department just 30 days to issue final decisions on natural gas exports afier it accepts final environmental impact statements on them. The reason for this short-sighted action was simple: money. Oil and gas exploration firms whose hydraulic fracturing operations in places like Pennsylvania, Oldahoma and North Dakota have produced an oversupply are tired of selling that gas cheaply to consumers in states like California, where gas bills

Just look at Wisconsin. The governor there, Scott Walker, was determined to tame the unions' clout. In 2011, the Badger State released government workers from any obligation to pay union dues, even if they benefitted from union negotiating. Union rolls dropped by a third, or even a half, in just two years. The same thing could happen in many other states, if the high court rules against mandatory union fees in the current case. Now, it's a band of teachers from Orange County, California, leading the charge in Friedrichs v. California TeachersAssociation. "I am opposed to forced fees and forced unionism," says Rebecca Friedrichs. But law in California and 22 other states compels public workers in unionized jobs to pay a "fair share" fee (same amount as dues) in return for representation. True, the law allows them a small time window to "opt out" of the union's political activities and get a fraction of the money back. But the onus is on workers to apply for the opt-out every year. Most don'tgetaround toit.Inertia ison the side of the union. According to the California teachers, it's a First Amendment issue. Money is speech. Teachers are paying $174 million a year to support the California Teachers Association, even though many teachers disagree with the union's leftwing positions and endorsements. The teachers' lawyer, Michael Carvin, blasts the current law as "a multi-hundred million dollar regime of compelled speech."

price of natural gas — as will surely happen when exports start reducing supplies — and California bills will go up again, probablyback to the levels of2008 and 2009 just for starters. For consumers and businesses, that will be just like a large tax increase, as there are always severe penalties when people and companies don't pay their utility bills. Since no one calls this a tax, few pay much heed, but anyone who listens to businesses relocating to other states knows that it's not just high California taxes pushing them. It's also sky-high utility rates, okayed routinely by the state Public Utilities Commission before its collusion with big utility companies became widely known and proven by email correspondence. This, then, is no simple matter. There' s the need to preserve American energy supplies to assure the nation's independence from outfits like OPEC, the rapacious Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries. There's also the danger from LNG, most recently seen in last year's explosions of two LNG barges in Alabama. And there's the pernicious effect on both consumers and businesses when prices rise. Put these together and it's easy to see LNG exports are as big a mistake now as LNG imports would have been in California 10years ago. But whoever said the politicians pushing this are immune from huge errors?

Thomas Elias liquidback to a gaseous form and are now are freezing gas to turn it into a liquid, the opposite of what they were built for. Terminals are being converted in lo-

cales asdiverse as Boston, Charleton, S.C. and along the Gulf Coast. Two brand-new export terminals to handle gas from Wyoming andColorado are in process in Oregon, with another to come in British Columbia, Canada. But because it fought off the LNG fad of 10 years ago, when federal experts and academics like Mary Nichols (then a UCLA professor and now head of the state Air Resources Board) were claiming California absolutely needed hyperexpensive LNG imports, no export facilities are in the cards here. The votes cast by most California representatives for the LNG export speedup bill, supported by both conservative Republicans and the Obama Administration,were a serious disservice to their constituents, even if they did assure campaign funds will keep flowing from oil and gas interests. It's not that natural gas prices have plunged quite as much as gasoline did in early 2014, but that's mostly because the wholesale costofnaturalgasaccounts for slightly less than half of what consumers pay. The rest of the price comes from transportation and the cost of maintaining pumps, storage facilities and pipelines, plusa profitpercentage. But double or triple the wholesale

South Carolina farmers look at Nobel devastating losses after flood Peace B RANCHVILLE, S . C . (AP) — T had Wimberly tugs on a clump of peanuts, shaking off the mud as he cracks the soggy shells to inspect his crop. But all he can do is sigh as his livelihood disintegrates between his fingers.

Just a week ago, the 2,500 acres Wimberly farms with his partner, Jonathan Berry,

baked in a drought that wiped out his corn crop. Now, his fields 60 miles south of Columbia in Branchville are filled with water. Moisture is trapped in his peanuts, cre-

ating mold and other toxins that make them unfit for humans and animals to eat. He expects to lose as much as $1 million this year, as crop insurance only covers a portion of market prices. It paid out only about $120 an acre for his corn, which he estimated he could have sold for $300 to $400 per acre. "That's the life of a farmer. You put your heart and soul into the ground, then something devastating happens like this and you are done," Wimberly said. "Farming is gambling."

Across South Carolina, the misery continues: Preliminary estimates show crop lossescould totalmore than $300 million in the state' s $3 billion-a-year agriculture industry. Interstate 95, vital to the East Coast economy for trucking,remains closed over astretch of 13 miles, forcingtravelers to take a massive detour. The capital city is fighting to keep its water system running while peoplehave toboiltap water before drinking it. And even more rain could be on the way. A storm system will stall near the coast this weekend, bringing as much as an additional inch of rain to some areas, according to the National Weather Service. The heaviestrain is expected Saturday,although forecasters said it shouldn't be enough tofl ood any additional areas. "Underneath that water is the South Carolina we remember. Underneaththat water is that state that is so beautiful — that is damaged, but we have to fix it," said Gov. Nikki Haley, who warnedthat any finaldamage estimates could still be weeks away. "Weal get there." Floodwaters continue to move toward the sea, although authorities don' t expect the devastating damage thathappened in Columbia when up to20 inches of rain fell over two days last weekend. Haley continued to urge people i n Ge o rgetown County and other coastal areas to be vigilant. No one has had to be evacuated yet, though, and there was some hope the worst could be over.

Prize for Tunisia TUNIS, Tunisia (AP) — It wasthe fallof2013 and Tunisia's newfound democracy was in grave danger. The assassination of a left-wing politician had prompted the opposition to walk out of the constitutional assembly.The government was paralyzed, the constitution unfinished and the country on the brink of war. I n n e a rb y Eg y p t , which had followed Tunisia in a d e mocratic revolution, a coup had j ust overthrown th e I s -

lamist government, and some sectors in Tunisia wanted to follow suit. Then four civil society groups — the main labor union, the bar association,the employers' association and the human rightsleague — stepped into the fray. Working t ogether, they got t h e Islamists toagree to re-

sign infavor of a caretaker government that would organize new elections, while the angry opposition returned to the table to complete the country's constitution.

On Friday, that coalition — the National Dialogue Quartet — received the Nobel Peace Prize forits patient ne-

gotiating efforts, which carried Tunisia through an extended constitutional crisis and laid the groundwork for the only democracy that remains following the 2011 Arab Spring demonstrations.

notes. The cameras still have not been replaced. Chabot said Friday the district is well into the process of getting new cameras on campus, and expect to have the project go out to bid in a matter of weeks. In September, the district sentthree administrators to a

trade show hosted by Surveillance Systems Inc. at Thunder Valley Casino and Resort in Lincoln. Three vendors have since visited the campus to evaluate where and what type of new cameras can be installed. Estimates should be delivered next week, after which the district will put the project out to bid. "There's a lot good sofbvare vendors that make the process of interacting with cameras much easier, which helps anyone findwhat they need to find. The old camera systems tooka lotoftraining to be able use them effectively," said Matt Leamy, technology systems specialist. The district is looking to purchase sofbvare that will allow the footage to be accessed remotely. "This all takes time, and we want to make sure it's done professionally and that we have the best cameras we can afford," Chabot said. Chabot said he did not want to reveal the budget until the project has been picked up by a contractor. The note Tuesday was found in the student's PE locker, an area the school can never monitor with cameras.

Though the bullying has persisted for months, it takes on added urgency in light of the arrestslast week offour boys at Summerville High School who authorities said plotted to shoot students and teachers. "I think it shows that these kind of things can happen anywhere," Chabot said. "We want to make sure if students are scared they can come to a counselor."

At Summerville, a group of studentswere the firstto tell a teacher what they heard. C habot added that t h e one positive of the Summerville incident is that is shows students feel they can trust adults and will speak up if they think something is happening.

Kennel club's AKC-sanctioned

dog show today and Sunday By LACEY PETERSON The Union Democrat

The Sierra- Tuolumne Kennel Club will host an all-breed American Kennel Club dog show this weekend at the Mother Lode Fairgrounds. The club is an all-breed dog club that's been in Tuolumne County since 1973. It's licensed by the American Kennel Club. The Sierra-Tuolumne Kennel Club is a purebred dog organization, but all breeds are welcome, said president Mary Barrett, of Sonora. We have a nice variety (of dog breeds) now, from terriersto sporting dogs to m ore, Barrett said. The purpose of the club is to promote responsible ownership and training, Barrett said. They also striveto promote good sportsmanship in competitions. On that platform, the group will host its 2015 all-breed American Kennel Club "Barktoberfest" today and Sunday at the Mother Lode Fairgrounds in Sonora. The event is free, but parking is $5. It will be from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. today and Sunday. The Westminster-like contest will include exhibi-

A Barn Hunt is where dogs of all breeds and mixed breeds hunt for contained rats hidden within a maze of straw bales. The dog that finds the rats the fastest is the winner, but any dogfi nding the rat within the allotted time

has qualified. The rats are safe inside heavy plastic tubes.

there is a mystery. Mites are known

A recentfi nd in ElDorado County has weed scientists, land managers, foresters, botanists and plant conservationists throughout Northern California very excited over a tiny mite. The broom gall mite has recently been observed attacking the invasive plant Scotch broom (Cytisus scoparius) in California's natural landscapes. Scotchbroom, desired for itsbright yellow flowers and rapid growth, was first introduced into North America as

to travel long distances using wind currents and by hitching rides on animals, humans and equipment. It is likely that many more finds will be forthcoming. Since the mite is a beneficial biologicalcontrol agent and not a pest, do not apply pesticides to kill it! The broom gall mite can help greatly in the fight to control Scotch broom plants that have invaded wildlands throughout California. Although some retail nurseries still sell a variety of broom species, homeowners should avoid planting them. Depending on your climate, a number ofalternate plant species with similar attributes that are not invasive weeds may be available. Scotch broom currently infests millions of acres throughout California, causing loss of native plant biodiversity and an increased fire risk. The USFS and other agencies spend a considerable amount of time and taxpayer money eachyear treating Scotch broom plants either by applying herbicides or prying them up by the root. With the mites' help, we' ll make much greater progress toward reducing Scotch broom infestations. Help us track the spread of this beneficial mite. If you see evidence of Scotchbroom gallmites,report it on the University of California Coopera-

However, its ability to outcompete native plants and form dense stands has alsomade itone ofCalifornia'sw orst wildland weeds. The mites cause galls — small abnormal growths on the plant's budsduring feeding, which greatly reduce the plant's ability to grow and reproduce. This mite is considered to be an ideal biological control agent due to its specialized feeding habits and the debilitating damage it can cause to invasive weeds. In some areas, the gall mite has already killed large stands of broom. The Scotch broom gall mite, more closely related to spiders and ticks than insects, is a type of eriophyid mite that is nearly invisible to the naked eye, measuring roughly the width of a human hair. Although the mite is tiny, the galls formed by plants in response to the mite's feeding are quite noticeable. The small fuzzy masses occur along the length of the stem and can be quite numerous. Native to Europe, the mite was first found on Scotch broom in the Tacoma, Washington, and Portland, Oregon, regions in 2005. Since that time, the mite has become estab-

Until 2013, the mite had only been found as far south as Ashland, Oregon, with no occurrences in California.

Typical Grover's disease rash appears on chest, back DEAR DIL ROACH: My husband has a terrible rash on his back and front,diagnosed by a dermatologistas Grover's disease. He is 79 and has had it for five years. My husband's internist said it would go away within six to 12 doctor gave him some triamcinolone cream, and it helped, but the rash is still bothersome. Do you know if there' s anything better, or will he have to live with this? — L.S. ANSWER: Grover's disease was described in 1970, and the original report showed that the rash cleared up within weeks; however, the same rash and biopsy findings have subsequently been described in people with chronic disease. Grover's disease is most often found in

lighter-skinned people over 40, and it affects men more than women. The cause is unknown, but there are many triggers, including cold air, heat and sweating, sunlight and medications. Your husband has the typical distribution of the rash, on the chest and back. It often is extremely itchy.

We have a lot of fun doing things and going places each weekend. We text each otheror callseveraltime s a day,and I see this relationship continuing for the long term. The problem is, Joseph is a very chaste kisser. Whenever we are intimate, he kisses with his lips closed. I find kissing someone to be the best part of being together. When I asked him about it, he blamed his dentures. He also has problems with erectile dysfunction. He has Viagra, but says he doesn't like taking it because it makes him groggythenextday.

THE UNION DEMOCRAT

TO YOUI'

Good Health Keith Roach, M.D. Unfortunately, there isn't a cure for Grover's disease, and I can't tell you if your husband's case is going to finally go awayby itself.Treatment isto avoid triggers, if known and possible to do. When that isn't possible, over-thecounter moisturizing creams help some people, butm ostrequiresteroid creams like the triamcinolone your husband uses. Some people need even higherpotencytopicalcreams. If these aren't adequate,topical vitamin D creams have been used, and some peopleneed oralantihistamines. The most recalcitrant cases may require systemic treatment with oral steroids, vitamin A analogs like isotretoin, or ultraviolet light treatment. These

need to be supervised by an expertin Grover's disease, as UV light can make the disease worse, initially. DEAR DR ROACH:I have a condition that I believe is unusual. I am female, nearly 80 years young and am in excellent physical and usually excellent mental health. Every spring, I have an "emotional crisis." It comes on suddenly. I feel very depressed, become emotional and want to stayisolated (normally I am extroverted). I prefer cold weather. I will be this way six to eight weeks — sometimes longer. I can't follow through on my responsibilities, and I can't explain what's wrong (and I don't want to anyway). When I start to feel better, I can feel"it"starttoleavemy body. Do Isee a medicaldoctor or a psychiatrist? — B.J. ANSWER: This sounds to me like a mental illness, though I should point out that the distinction between medical disease and physical ones isn't particularly useful. The brainor mind can become disordered

just like any other organ system. The fact that this happens in springtime makes me wonder about seasonal affective disorder. While the majority of people with SAD have depressive symptoms in the winter, there is a small subset who have symptoms in spring or summer. Light therapy, useful for some people with SAD in winter, is of no value in the spring-onset SAD. Likeother types of depressive episodes, SAD may be treated with medication, psychotherapy or both. Fluoxetine in particular has been studied for SAD, as has cognitive-behavioral therapy. A psychiatrist can help decide what is the best treatment in your case. Finally, some people with depression tend to worsen around anniversaries

or other reminders of a life-changing event, which might be another explanation for the fact that these symptoms recur every spring. Readersmay write Dr. Roach, M.D., at 628 Virginia Dr., Orlando, FL 32803 or email ToYourGoodHealth@med.cornell.edu with medical questions.

Today in history Today is Saturday, October 10, the 283rd day of 2015. There are 82 days left in the year. Today's Highlight in History: On October 10, 1935, the George Gershwin opera "Porgy and Bess," featuring an all-black cast, opened on Broadway, where it ran for 124 performances. On this date: In 1913, the Panama Canal was effectively completed as President Woodrow Wilson sent a signal from the White House by telegraph, setting off explosives that destroyed a section of the Gamboa dike. In 1938, Nazi Germany completed its annexation of Czechoslovakia's Sudetenland (soo-DAYT'uhn-land). In 1943, Chiang Kai-shek took the oath of office as president of China. In 1955, the film version of the Rodgers & Hammerstein musical "Oklahoma!" premiered before an invitation-only audience at the Rivoli Theatre in New York. In 1964, the first Summer Olympics to be held in Asia were opened in Tokyo by Japanese Emperor Hirohito. Entertainer Eddie Cantor, 72, died in Beverly Hills, California. In 1967, the Outer Space Treaty, prohibiting the placing of weapons of mass destruction on the moon or elsewhere in space, entered into force. In 1968, the sexy sciencefiction spoof "Barbarella," starring Jane Fonda, was released by Paramount Pictures. In 1973, Vice President Spiro T. Agnew, accused of accepting bribes, pleaded no contest to one count of federal income tax evasion, and resigned his office.

Start as captain, end as private By PHILLIP ALDER

4 J?2 Brian O'Driscoll, an Irishman and former East professional rugby union player, said, "The big West 62 443 upside to being captain is it's a huge honor, but the downside is that there is definitely extra V 10 9 7 4 2 KQ J8 pressure." J 10 8 7 192 Thisweek, we have looked atcaptaincy 4 A83 4K 1 0 9 6 during an auction. But, as we have seen, often South the captaincy changes from one partner to the 4 K109 7 other. In today's deal, for example, how should VA5 North plan the auction after South opens one t AK 6 3 no-trump? 4Q54 South has accurately described his hand, so if Dealer: South North were permitted only one bid to name the Vulnerable: East-West final contract, he would get it right most of the time. South West N orth E a st 1NT Pass ?? Here, North knows that game is worth attempting, but he is not sure whether it is right to Opening lead:7 K play in no-trump or in spades. He starts with a two-heart transfer bid, showing five-plus spades and zero-plus points. If South rebids two spades, North continues with three no-trump, passing captaincy back to the opener. South chooses the final contract: three no-trump or four spades. Here, though, South has such a great hand for spades that he should rebid three spades, a so-called superaccept. Then North raises to four spades. How should South plan the play after West leads the heart king? As the diamonds aren't breaking 3-3, declarer is in danger of losing one heart and three clubs. But he can avoid three club losers if he can force the opponents to lead the suit. After winning the first trick, South should draw trumps and eliminate diamonds, ruffing the fourth round in the dummy. Then he exits with dummy's last heart. Whoever wins the trick must either open up clubs or concede a ruff-and-sluff.

BRIEFING

Ducks extend Despres contract ANAHElM (AP)Defenseman Simon Despres agreed to a five-year, $18.5 million contract extension with Anaheim on Friday, punctuating his remarkable six-month rise with the Ducks. Despres has been an outstanding contributor to the Ducks' lineup since the club acquired him in a trade with Pittsburgh on March 2. Despres would have been a restricted free agent next summer, but Anaheim general manager Bob Murray made sure his surprising find is bound to the team through 2021. The 24-year-old Despres quickly won a regular spot in Anaheim's lineup with physical two-way play after his arrival in a trade for veteran defenseman Ben Lovejoy, scoring six points in the Pacific Division champions' final 16 regular-season games.

Busch fastest in final practice CONCORD, N.C. (AP) — Kyle Busch was the fastest Friday night in the final practice for the NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Busch, who will start on the front row Saturday night alongside Matt Kenseth, turned a lap 189.354 mph. Chase drivers had the six fastest times. Kurt Busch was second, followed by Joey Logano, Ryan Newman, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Brad Keselowski. Defending race winner Kevin Harvick was 12th, while Kenseth was the slowest of the Chase drivers with the 25th fastest lap. Jeff Gordon struggled again in practice at a track he typically runs well at, finishing 16th. The winner tonight will automatically qualify for the next round of the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.

Three out for Giants EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Strong side linebacker Devon Kennard and defensive linemen Robert Ayers Jr. and George Selvie are going to miss the New York Giants game Sunday night against the San Francisco 49ers with injuries. Coach Tom Coughlin ruled out the three players and receiver Victor Cruz on Friday after they did not practice. Ayers has missed two three straight games with a hamstring injury. Kennard pulled a hamstring last weekend in the win over Buffalo, and Selvie hurt a calf. Cruz has been sidelined all season with a calf injury.

Stewart returns to racing today

Tracy Sarbutes / UnionDemocrat

Summerville fullback Nathaniel Ulvevadet (33) leaves the defense in his wake for a long run in the first quarter.

The Associated Press

Sitting out because of an injury is something James Stewart can take. He knows mentally that he's physically unable to race and therehabilitation takes up most of his time. Being parked because of a technicality was far more difficult. He w as healthy and anxious to get out on the motocross track, but a decision he didn't agree with kept him at home while everyone raced without him.

So when Stewart returns toracing forthe first

time ina year at today's Straight Rhythm races, there's a good chance more than the usual amount of adrenaline will be flowing. "I'm pretty anxious, a littlenervous at the same time," Stewart said. "It's been about a year so I'm kind of excited to get back." Stewart was banned 16 months by the International Motorcycling Federationaker testing positive for a stimulant at a Supercross race in Seattle in April 2014. Stewart appealed the decision, saying thepositive testcame from prescribedAdderall, but the Court of Arbitration for Sport upheld the suspension because he did not provide the necessary paperworkbeforethe test. In case that wasn't frustrating enough, Stewart was latercleared to take Adder all, but c o uldn' t race because he didn't fill out the paperwork before failing the drug test last year. "I'm not going to lie, I was shocked," Stewart said. "It was like being out ofschool all year because I didn't turn in my homework, but ultimately I didn't know the rules. I messed up and took it like

Rodgers turned the corner, dodged several Sonora tackle attempts and scampered 88 yards for a touchdown to put the Bears in striking distance at 27-20. "It's a one score game right there," said Bears head coach Sean Leveroos. "We returned the second half kickoff and kids feed off of execution. Energy goes up, they executed the kickoff and energy went high." "I think that gave them life," said Wildcat head coach Bryan Craig. "We had talked about getting a three and out and go down and score. But no, we give up a kickoff And like we' ve done before, we like to make it interesting. But

al things. His return this weekend will end a 12-month layoff from racing at the place where he won his last race. "I think it (the layoff) made the sport really miss me and I missed the sport, so there's always positive in negative things," said Stewart, who swept Justin Brayton in the finals to win the 2014 Straight Rhythm title. Stewart makes his return at one of the most

unique races in motocross. Held at Fairplex in Pomona, California, Straight Rhythm is essentially a drag race held on a Supercross track unwound into

a straightaway. A field of 24riders — 16 in the open class, eight in lites — go head to head dragracing style until the finals on a half-mile track filled with jumps, whoops and table tops.

was almostperpendicular to the ground as he made the catch for a 20-yard score. "Eli made some nice catches tonight," Leveroos said. With it just a one-score game again, 34-26, the Wildcats answered, again.

Sonora quarterback Samm y Pageripped offa long run and Gookin finished the drive with his third touchdown of the game, a 9-yard burst to give the Wildcats breathing room 41-26. Gookin was tough for the Bears to stop all game. The junior racked up 167 yards rushing on just 12 carries. "Open alley he's getting it. He's gonna make people miss," Page said. "He's a great running back. He's a good guy with a lot of talent. He's good to have on our side." The Wildcats ran for a season high 454 yards. "Our guys up front worked a lot better than they have been," Craig said. "They worked hard and that was an emphasis this week. I talked to them about let's bring our

spectacular style. Wyatt Faughnan took a pitch from Page and sprinted 94 yards down the sideline w ith 4 minutes le i n t h e game. The Bears gathered in the far end zone for several minutes after the game and were visibly upset after breaking the huddle. "I didn't grow up here, so it' s a rivalry to me but it's not as close to me as it is with some of these other guys," said Rodgers. "And honestly it wasn' t as emotional of a game we should have made it. I know I haven't grown up with these boysbut that' sthevibeIgot.I made a lot of mental mistakes and some of the team. I don' t think we showed who we are tonight. I think we' re gonna come back and play harder next week." Sonora (6-1 and 3-0 in the Mother Lode League) won its sixth straight game while the Bears (3-4, 1-2 MLL) sufFered the fourth loss in the last five. The Sonoa-Summerville series is not a rivalry yet. "I heard it best from another coach, it's nota rivalry until you beat them," Leveroos said.

The Wildcats have won all 13 meetings between the two teams dating back to 1964. "It's a friendly rivalry with our stafF and their stat " Craig said. 'We had a couple of laughs aflerthe game when we talked and all these fans, I wish we could get more in here because I know there was more that wanted to be

saw the Redskins score four touchdowns — all on the ground — before an eventual 26-7 victory against the Mustangs. "They' re kids. They were making those mistakes," Weatherby said. "I chewed them out." Penalties played a role in the game on Friday night in San Andreas. By the end of the evening, the Redskins were penalized for 80 yards, 60 of which came in the first half. However, Weatherby does not believehis team should've been penalized as much as they were. "Some people get in a position of authority like that and believe they have the ability to dictate where the game is going," Weatherby said. "The reffing was horrible on both sides. The other coach and I talked about it. That was the first thing he said was 'this has to be the worst reffed game he's seen in a long time.' " On the night, the Redskins ran for 353 yards on the ground and four touchdowns. Weatherby said they were able to do so because their offensive line was able to do whatever was asked of them. "Any gap we wanted to hit, we could hit it," Weatherby said. "We did a lot of stuff."

said. "On that rush (the 65yard score), he had no lead blocker, he went too far outside. And so he just found a seam and just broke it. That was huge because he just has a good feel for where that run hits."

Next week, the Redskins have a bye week before travelling to Summerville in two weeks time. "My philosophy is to try and get the guys better that are banged up a little bit, make sure that they' re good," Weatherby said."We still have to run quite a bit to maintain that shape and we hit the weight room.

Kershaw (0-1) endured his fifth straight postseason loss after giving up the seventh playoff homer of his career. Last season's NL MVP and Cy Young Award winner allowed three runs and four hits in 6 2-3 innings, struck out 11 and walked four.

a police statement said. She told investigators she awoke to find him sexually assaulting her, the statement said. The 20-year-old Searl was arrested on campus

Thursday and booked on suspicionofthreecounts of rape. Police expect to present thecase to prosecutors next week.

The NHL Players' Association announced the settlement without disclosing the terms. Richards, who had fiv eyearsand $22 million left on his contract, officially became an unrestricted free agent. "The terms are agreeable to all parties," the Kings said in a terse statement.

The settlement finally ends Richards' tumultuous four seasons with the

Kings, who acquired him from Philadelphia in 2011. He played an important depth role on two Stanley Cup championship teams, even while his scoring production declined precipitously from his best days with the Flyers. Richards lost his job entirely in Los Angeles

BULLFROGS Continued from PageC1 there was a mix up on a pass call. Bret Harte was unable to capitalize on the tremendous opportunity. Linden and Bret Harte ex-

changed punts on the next two drives, and the Bullfrogs seemed tobe in a betterposition to make something happen offensively. They outperformed the Lions offensively with six first downs compared to Linden's two. It was Linden's second play on the following drive where running back Hunter White broke through two arm tackles near the line of scrimmage and ran for a 49yard touchdown. With 3:40 left in the first quarter, Linden was in the lead 7-0. This would not be the only time Hunter White scored in the half. In the first drive of the second quarter, the Lions ripped off another big run this one being 25 yards. After afailed point aftertouchdown attempt, the Lions lead 13-0. Although the first h a lf would end without a change in the score, Br et Harte threatened to score on several drivesdue to a consistent run game and some strong completions by junior quarterback James Brechtel. There were two opportunitiesfor the Bullfrogs at the end of the first half where Brechtel had open receivers, however they were unable to complete the passes. Going into halftime, Bret Harte was down 13-0, but they had received solid performances from quarterback Michael Ziehlke and running back Anthony Howard who kept the Bullfrog offense on

Coming out in the second half it wa s apparent the Bullfrogs were fired up.They came out with consecutive defensive stands, but their offense was still not producing. It was the continued use of basic playsand smart football that turned the tide. The fourth quarter opened up the floodgates for Bret Harte and the first points were scored on a 10-yard pass reception thrown by Brechtel. The Bullfrog defense was

It was the leader of the team, the quarterback Ziehlke that put the Bullfrogs ahead with 4:32 left.

ALAMEDA (AP) — Oakland defensive back TJ Carrie missed his third consecutive practice with a chest injury and will not play this week, leaving the Raiders without the most versatile member

of their secondary for Sunday's game against Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos. Carrie was injured while fielding a punt during the first play of the second quarter of the Raiders' 22-20lossto the Chicago Bears last week. He left the game and did not return and later left the team's locker room with his left arm in a sling. Without Carrie, who started the first two games of the season at cor-

nerbackbefore moving to safety,the Raiders are scrambling for help. Larry Asante practiced with the

starting defense Friday but has started just two games in his fiveyear career. Taylor Mays was also back on the field after missing time this week with an ankle injury. Tevin McDonald, currently on the practice squad, is also an option. "We' ll probably give Larry a littl e more time back there," Oakland coach Jack Del Rio said. "We' re really not about worrying about what we don'thave. Whoever'scalled on to play,we expect them to step in and play well for us and we carry on." The Raiders have been playing short-handed in th e secondary since losing starting strong safety Nate Allen to a knee injury in Week 1.

Allen, who was placed on injured reserve with a designation to return, is still several weeks away from playing. He worked out privately with a trainer not far from where his teammates worked out but can' t

return to practice until Oct. 27 at the earliest. With free safety Charles Woodson limited in practice since dislocating his shoulder in the season opener,that could mean a long afternoon against Manning and the Broncos for the NFL's 31st-ranked pass defense. "It's definitely a challenge because you get a lot of looks from him," Asante said. "He's the type of quarterback that will hold his cadence until the play clock is down to 10seconds or less,just

to see what he's getting out of the safety. We just have to play our game and be patient because we know he's going to be patient at the line of scrimmage with his checks and calls." Oakland has also had issues at cornerback. David Amerson, claimed off waivers from Washington two weeks ago, made his first start of the year during last week's loss to Chicago. He and N eiko Thorpe could split t i me against Denver. "When you' re stressed in different groups you fight the best you can," Del Rio said. "In Denver last

out defensive tackle Justin Ellis, who is wearing a walking boot on his left foot after re-injuring it in practice this week. Ellis missed two games already with a similar injury. Additionally, kickoff returner Taiwan Jones is out with a foot injury. Coupled with the loss of Carrie, who has been the team's primary punt returner, Oakland's special teams are hurting and Del Rio left open the possibility that even first-round pick Amari Cooper might be used.
