Hundreds of dead and dying

Harvest Festifall

trees impacting TUD facilities

By GUY McCARTHY The Union Democrat

There are more than 450 dead and dying trees threatening to damage Tuolumne Utilities District facilities and TUD's water master is working with Pacific Gas and Electric, Cal Fire and individual homeowners to address cutting them down and removing them.

Eric Hall, the district water master, has walked the Tuolumne Main Canal and used GPS to map locations of the hazard trees in relation to the system of ditches and flumes that convey most of the district's water to 44,000people in Tuolumne County.

Some dead trees have required crane removal because of their location, and there are more that may require the same, Don

Perkins, TUD's operations manager, said Tuesday at adistrict board of directors meeting. Removal in some locations could cost as much as$125 per tree.

Specific ditches affected by droughtstressedand bark beetle-infested trees include the Section 4 Ditch, where there are 24 dead trees, 15 more that TUD staA' are watching, and eight trees have been rem oved so far,according toHa ll.

There are 88 dead trees along the Upper Soulsbyville Ditch and 14 more being w atched, and thereare 104 dead treesalong the Lower Soulsbyville Ditch. There are 44 dead trees along the Upper Columbia Ditch and 152 dead trees along Eureka Ditch.

Other TUD facilities that are impacted by dead and dying trees include the Twain Harte wastewater treatment plant, where

there are 125 dead trees and 99 trees have alreadybeen removed at a cost of $6,740.

There are also dead trees at Rainbow Reservoir, Cedar Ridge water treatment plant, Tuolumne water treatment plant, and at

In other district business Tuesday, the boardvoted 5-0 to rejecta resident'sclaim for $6,700 in damages stemming from a pipebreak at a hydrant Aug. 13 on North Shepherd Street in Sonora. According to TUD staff, Bettizane Smith says her property sustained damage and outside terraces were compromised.

The board also voted 5-0 to approve a $1.3 million agreement with NorCal Pipeline Services, Inc. for the Gibbs Ranch sewer collection improvements project west of Dragoon Gulch, according to TUD staff.

The project, funded by a state Department of Housing and Community Development grant, involves about 15,560 linear feet of sewer main, 4 inches to 8 inches diameter, to be rehabbed with cured-inplacepipe,and replacement of about 485 linear feet of existing pipe. The project includes installing about 20 new manholes, and modification and repair of about 40 existing manholes.

The district's first forum to share information about planned water and sewer improvements, costs and potential rate increases was held Tuesday night in Columbia. Three more are scheduled, Thursday in Soulsbyville, Oct. 20 in Tuolumne, and Oct. 26 in Sonora.

A public hearing is scheduled at 5:30 p.m. Nov. 17, when the district board of directors will consider public comments as well as any written protests submitted againstproposed water and sewer rate increases.

Districtstaff have summarized a proposed treated water rate increase in monthly fixed service charges from $36.38 to $47.50,effective Jan. 1. If that fixed charge increase is approved, a typical TUD family bill will be about $60 a month, assuming 225 gallons daily usage. According to TUD staff, that works out to an increase of about$14.60 a month, or49 cents a day.

The annual Columbia Harvest Festifall was celebrated Saturday at Columbia State Historic Park to mark the harvesting season. Vendors, wearing 1850s clothing, offered handmade items for sale and also demonstrated skills such as weaving, spinning and face painting. The Rose Creek Ramblers (above) perform together for the first time in four years at the event. Janet Formanek, of Twain Harte (below right), uses an Ashford Spinning wheel. She can make socks, sweaters, clothes, hats, mittens and more while spinning. Christina Bradshaw, of Rodin Farms in Modesto (below left), holds a pumpkin. She said she attended the festifall for the fun of the experience.

Joyce Lois (O'Reilly) Drew June 10, 1925 —Oct. 7, 2015

Joyce died at home with her loving husband, Selby, by her side, on Wednesday evening Oct. 7, 2015. A private graveside burial with family was held.

Joyce was born on her beloved gr an d f ather' birthday, June 10, 1925, in San Francisco, California.

She was raised in Sonora, with her brother and sister where she graduated from Sonora Union High School in 1943. Following graduation, Joyce worked as a s ecretary/bookkeeper f o r several years in the Sonora area.

After World War II, she and her family relocated to San Francisco, where she worked as a secretary at Standard Oil, and later at Aramco. Joyce met her sweetheart, Selby (who was

in the U.S. Coast Guard at the time) in San Francisco at a dance in late September 1952. Their first date was the very next day when Selby took her on a boat ride to tour Angel Island. In December 1952, they were married in M odesto. Following their wedding and Selby's subsequent year tour of duty overseas, they were relocated to Smith Island Light Station in the Puget Sound off the coast of Washington. As the years followed, Selby and Joyce relocatedto other light stations in Oregon and California.

In 1962, they moved to Fort Bragg w here t h ey decided to stay and raise their family. Joyce was a h omemaker with a m i n d for business. She was always passing on tidbits of information. She loved her sweetheart very much and took great pride in her children and home life. Also, Joyce was activefor many years and held officer positions in both Parlor No. 210, Native Daughters of the Golden West, as well as the Sequoia Unit 96, American Legion Auxiliary. She was always one to whom you could count on to listen or to obtain advice on just about anything. She is remembered with great love and respect. s Joyce is survived by her beloved husband Selby and her children and their families, Jerold, Tricia, and E. P.

Hurting the wilderness we love Upon running the entire 2,190-mile Appalachian Trail in record time, a marathoner broke several rules at the finish line on top of Maine's majestic Mount Katahdin. Among them was public consumption of alcohol — in this case, Champagne. Another was littering by shaking the bottle and spraying Champagne every which way.

Less appealing liquids have u ndoubt,r edly been deposited on those boulders, but one can sympathize with the highly annoyed response of the Baxter State Park authorities. Their rules limit groups hiking the trail to 12 people. The speedster was greeted by a far larger number, including invited media. His clothes and a supporting van, meanwhile, were coveredwith corporate logos.

The physical feat was undeniably impressive. But it had zero to do with the point of the trail, which is to let humans connect with relatively unspoiled nature.

For this runner, the wilderness was used as a stage, a backdropforpromoting hisexcellence.

Like the national parks, America's celebrated trails are drawing big crowds — not only the Appalachian on the East Coast but also the Pacific Crest Trail on the West. Though their popularity can be seen as a good thing — they expand the constituency for conservation — it also alters the encounter with wilderness into something a bit more industrial.

Ecotourism has become big business. Some outfitters and guides do a fine job of balancing the humans' wants with protection of the wilds. Others are intent on maximizing profit by sexing up what is usually a slow-moving experience, even to the point of prodding wild animals to perform.

For example, the giant manta rays swimming around the Big Island of Hawaii have become a major moneymaker in the district of Kona, according to The Washington Post.

At night, boat operators depositlarge groups ofdiving tourists into the waters around the fragile reefs.

They shine lights, which attract the plankton on which mantasfeed.The rays soon appear and, as promised in the brochures, put on quite a show.

The boats have been known to drop anchor on the fragile reefs. And dive masters have used tongs to move spiny urchins so that tourists could comfortably sit on the coral. Some mantas are getting injured, and others are losing their fear of humans, which endangers them

The Sanders-Trump magical mystery tour WASHINGTON — Barrels of ink and galaxiesofpixels have been sacrificed to solving the mystery of the spectacular rise of Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump.

People are angry. We get it. But there' s more at work than mere frustration. We are at a philosophical hinge point that feels more acute than in elections past.

The equally irascible but otherwise antonymic Trump and Sanders personify these differing philosophies, which were clarified by Sanders during Sunday's interview on NBC's "Meet the Press."

"Are you a capitalist?" asked host Chuck Todd.

"No,"said Sanders. "I'm a democratic socialist."

All heads on the political panel, including my own, snapped to attention. Did he just say he's not a capitalist?

That Sanders is a socialist is no secret. He has said so often enough and his proposedpolicies aimed at worker- and consumer-owned economic institutions

An up-close and personal encounter with a manta undoubtedly makes for an exciting Facebook entry. If seeing these creatures in their primeval habitat is the objective, however, one cannot do better than going to the Imax and watching a professionally produced wildlife documentary.

Clearly, some people can't enjoy nature unless a sportis attached — hence the controversial move in Congress to open more waterways in Yellowstone and Grand Teton national parks to paddlers. Both parks already allow non-motorized boating on certain stretch-

confirm as much.

His answer was shocking, nevertheless, because surely no one hoping to become president would dare admit wanting to fundamentally change the nation's economic system. A few regulations here and there, sure. But wholesale socialism, albeit alongside a political democracy, however that works. Thus far, there's no such model in the world, but it sounds vaguely reminiscent of a 1960s-style com-

What's the problem here? After all, we' re not talking about Jet Skis and speedboats.

The problem is that even human-powered watercraft can damage trout and other wildlife habitat. They can introduce invasive aquatic plants. The problem is that politicians are trying to take science-based judgments out of the hands of park professionals. The problem is that "hand-propelled" watercraft include packrafts, often used for thrill rides over rapids and carrying groups of people.

Members of American Whitewater, a river access group, are reportedly split on this matter. Limiting human activities in wilderness areas can involve tough calls.

Ithelps to remember that thereare placesin thisbig earth for every kind of sportive activity — from breaking human speed records to driving 7,000-horsepower yachts. If the thumb must come down on the scale, let itreston the sideofnature.

Kathleen Parker Except that this is not what Sanders actually thinks. Further to his truth-ordare spirit, he turned the question on Todd: "When one ofyour Republican colleagues gets on the show, do you say, 'Are you a capitalist?'"

Well, no, because everyone else is capitalisti c to varying degrees. Most people become capitalists when they start earning a paycheck and see how much of their earnings goes to taxes. Actually, this is when many become Republicans.

Except for guilty trustafarians, students and theirprofessors,most socialists are probablyborn oflow wages — a thought for Republicans refusing to raise the minimum wage.

On the fiipside, we find Trump — everywhere. The anti-Sanders, he's Magna Capitalist. A boastful, bombastic billionaire, even his coif screams "money!"

Most Democrats also believe in capitalism, just so long as nobody gets too rich or too poor (unless the former are Democrats). Finding ways to more equitably distribute wealth isthe properroleofgovernment, in their view, though the question, as always, is how.

How do we protect capitalist principles while also nurturing an environment that maximizes opportunity for all? Do we seek equal access or equal outcomes? Most savvypoliticians decry the latter,but not Sanders. On this, he is also perfectly clear.

Logic, of course, leads not to subsidizing but to capitalizing. Then, too, one must concede, logicdoesn'tstop forturtles.Pure capitalism is heartless and leaves too many behind,while overregulated markets and industries stifie productivity and growth. What we seek is balance. Yet what we have are Sanders and Trump.

The gut understands their appeal.

Sanders iseveryone's favorite college professor, an old hippie who never gave it up. If you' re a student carrying debt and looking at a dismal job market, who could be cooler than a grandfather who promises to bring down the establishment? To Trump's fans, he's the dream-weaverthe guy who made it BIG!!! and can make America GREAT!!! again, too.

Somewhere in between these flatterers of outrageis an idea in search ofa voice.

The smart candidate will articulate the center point of these two and seize that vast middle ground where independents, centrists and moderates — the majority of voters — languish in despair.

tions, neither he nor Sanders is a sideshow to this presidential election. For now, or until Jeb and Hillary share a joint, they' re the Main Event.

science. However, denial proudly ignores reason.

There's an organization called NASA that sent a rocket ship to the moon with men on board. NASA has a telescope that can see light from the other side of the universe, letting us look back in time. But these facts are true only if you choose to believe them.

Google "NASA: global warming." NASA states the planet is warming and humanity is in grave danger. They have facts, graphs, and research. And NASA is authoritative for people who believe in the American tradition that the best supported ideas create the best policy. That is what made America's government the envy of the world.

If free market economics solves all problems, then why do we have global warming? Free market economics is self-serving nonsense.And because we do have global warming, we need a strongresponsible government toconfront theirresponsibility of many of our corporations. Of course some readers would have us suppress NASA and ignore the fact that free market economics is crony capitalism. For them it doesn't matter how big the piles are that they sweep under the carpet of ideology.

How can you have responsible government if you don't have responsible, knowledgeable citizens? Or is the goal irresponsible government?

For those who care, there is a march at 3 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 14, at Courthouse Square demanding action on global warming.

See you there.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — For generations,teenage boys got their firstlook at anaked woman from Playboy,often from a copy swiped from Dad's sock drawer or filched from a newsstand.

These days, however, you can see far more explicit stuff on your phone than anythingHugh Hefner probably imagined when he launched his pioneering skin magazine 62 years ago with a centerfold of Marilyn Monroe.

Which is why, Playboy announced this week, it will stop running nude photos.

lese, who wrote about Playboy and Hefner in his 1981 book about the sexual revolution, "Thy Neighbor's Wife."

"Playboy was important enough to be the first magazine in the mainstream that could both be called a literary magazine and a magazine for masturbation," he told The Associated Press.

During the magazine's heyday, subscribers could plausibly, if not always convincingly, claim they read it for the articles. It published the work of such writers as John Updike, Jack Kerouac, "You' re now one click away from ev- Ray Bradbury and Joseph Heller and ery sex act imaginable for free.

like Penthouse and Hustler. Now it's up against the Internet, which is awash in high-definition porn.

So beginning in March, Playboy's U.S. print edition will look more like Esquire or GQ, magazines that carry PG-13-type pictures. Its international editions will still contain nude photos.

Playboy already took a s i milar step online more than a year ago. It banned full nudity on its website in August 2014 in a move that made the sitesafer forpeople to visitatw ork.

The company said the site saw the number of monthly unique visitors soar 400 percent. At the same time, it said, the median age of visitors fell from 47to30,a farm ore desirable demographic for advertisers.

One of the magazine's veteran contributors, celebrity interviewer David Rensin, praised the end of full nudity as something Playboy should have done years ago.

Navy wife who fought California drops plan to let violent to end POW torture dies inmates fight fires SACEGKNTO (AP)California corrections officials on Tuesday dropped a plan to include prisoners with violent backgrounds in the nation's largest and oldest inmate firefighting unit, a dayafter the proposalwas first reported by The Associated Press.

The state still plans to expand theprogram to include inmates who have up to seven years left to serve on their sentences, instead of the current five years, De-

partment of Corrections and Rehabilitation spokesman Jeffrey Callison told the AP. But as for considering inmates who have been convicted of violent crimes, 'We will not be changing that," he said. ''We' re not looking to expand the list of crimes that inmates have committed when considering who is eligible for irecamp service." f The story drew nationwide attention as California endures four years of droughtand a deadly fi re season. Public safety concernswere raised by critics including the union representing state firefighters who oversee the inmates while they are fighting fires.

However, C allison denied that t h e p u blicity killed the proposal. " Nothing w a s fi n a l ized, and even without the stories who knows what might have emerged?" he

"After the Rim Fire, government shutdown and lack of snow things got really tough. We were trying to find ways the Twain Harte Rotary could help bring more tourists into the area," said Mike Laurance, 70, a Twain Harte Rotary board member who lives in Mi-Wuk Village.

"We all thought it would be so different and unique to do something like an outhouse race. Outhouses are a part ofour history because they went hand in hand with gold mining," Laurance said.

A couple members had been in Virginia City a couple yearsprior to see the outhouse races and thought it could work here too, Laurance said.

The rotary's board of directorsreached out to the people organizing the outhouse races in Virginia City to see what it would take to make it happen here, too.

The first local derby was hosted at Eproson Park in Twain Harte and saw 12 people register.This year,

in his studio for his music equipment.

DIY Network came to Tascoe asking him to be on their roster for the online episodes, he said. "They are a very collaborative network, they really know what they' re doing," Tascoe said. Tascoe says about 90 percent ofhis career involves working privately with clients on design projects including architectural and graphic designs, while the other 10 percent goes to hosting shows and other projects.

Tascoe has plans to film another series in October with DIY Network, but couldnotdisclosethe topic.

"It isn't a contract, but when they have a new series for me that's when they sign me onto each individual project," Tascoe said.

"Ilovethe experience,"he said.

An outhouse has to be at least six feet tall, nine square feet and weigh at least 200 pounds, Laurance said.

'There can be as many as six people on a team," he said. aWe spent a lotof after-

"Typically, an agency this size would spend over $2 million a year keeping up with failing systems, replacing pipe and what have you," said Dave Andres, TUD's interim general manager. "We had no money to do that this year."

Andres blamed the shortage of money forprojects on a lack ofrate increases to keep up with high maintenance costs.

The district plans to invest about $14.5 million for projects to upgrade the TUD water system, as well as about $5.5 million for the sewer-system upgrades.

"Quite frankly, that's a drop in the bucket," Andres said. "We' ve identified $57 million in new (water) projects that need to be built, but what we' re propos-

It is unknown if the letters will be read aloud in court.

Roberts, 49, of Sonora, was found shot to death the morning of Feb. 16, 2014, in an automobile shop he rented near his home on Mono Way. He was foundlying faceup on the ground by a person he was scheduled to meet about renting space in the building.

The median income in Tuolumne County is about $46,000.

The distri ct's water rates are lower than many other water purveyors in the region, including Nevada Irrigation District, the City of Angels Camp, South Tahoe Public Utility District, Twain Harte Community Services District, Groveland Community Services District, Calaveras County Water District and Amador Water Agency.

A typical residential customer about 9,000 of TUD's 14,000 customers — would see their monthly water bill increase from about $45.38 to $60 beginningin 2016 under the proposed rate plan. The same customer would be payingabout $81.50 a month for water by 2020.

good to see."

Hans Bayer, of Sonora, who attended Tuesday with his mother, Gwen Bayer, of Columbia, said he understands the high cost of maintaining a widespread rural water system because he works as a watershed keeper for the City and County of San Francisco's Hetch Hetchy Water System.

Bayer said he thinks many of the people who have complained about similar proposed rate increases in the past

likely moved to the county &om urban areas.

"A lotarefrom bigger cities and don't understand the difficult aspects of water delivery in a rural environment," he said.

The district will be hosting similar community forums over the next few weeks in other areas of the county, including: • Soulsbyville: 6 to 8 p.m. Thursday at Soulsbyville Elementary School's old gymnasium,20300 Soulsbyville Road.

• Tuolumne: 6 to 8 p.m. Oct. 20 at Summerville High School's auditorium, 17555 Tuolumne Road.

Two families will f i ght the court's decision to detain their sons. Hearings for those cases have been scheduledforFriday morning.

The other two families are agreeing with the court's decision for now, and further detention hearings for those teens will be scheduled for later this month, said District Attorney Laura Krieg.

There is no way to establish a timeline for the case, Krieg said, but she will continue to advocate for the teens to remain in custody for the time being. She has requested psychiatric evaluations from the FBI for each.

Krieg said the court must determine where the boys will be placed before prosecution begins.

Each is being held at an undisclosed juvenile facility outside the county.

Carolyn Barrett, who attended last week's hearing, was back Tuesday. As the boys were ushered to a white van to return to juvenile hall, she held up a sign written in Pig Latin that translatedto"My hovercraft is full of eels."

The slogan comes from a Monty Python's Flying Circus skit, a favorite television show Barrett would watch with her neighbor.

Even though the age for full Social Security benefits is now 66 and rising, you' re eligiblefor Medicareatage 65.

If you are receiving early Social Security benefits, you' ll automatically be enrolled in Medicare and will receive your card three months before your 65th birthday. Otherwise, you' ll have to enroll in Medicare yourself.

At that point, you' ll need to decide whether to sign up for one orboth partsofM edicare.

Medicare Part A covers hospitalization and is premiumfree if you or your spouse paid M edicaretaxes for at least 10 years. Part B covers outpatientcare,such as doctors' visits, X-rays and tests, and costsmost people$104.90 per month in 2015.

If neither you nor your spouse has health insurance through a current employer, sign up for parts A and B. If you left your job and continued your employer's coverage through COBRA, the federal law that lets you keep group coverage for up to 18 months, you' ll also need to sign up for Medicare.

You can sign up without penalty at any time from three months before until three months after your 65th birthday at www.socialsecurity.gov. If you miss the deadline, you' ll be able to get Part B coverage only at limited times, and you may have to pay a lifetime late-enrollment penalty of 10 percent over your regular Part B premium for every year you delayed enrolling in Part B. See www. m edicare.gov fordetails.

You' ll also generally have to signup for Medic are ifyou are reti red and receiving retiree health benefits. Your re-

tiree coverage can fill in gaps in Medicare, but your Medicare policy must pay first if you' re 65 or older. For people who are 65 and working for companies with fewer than 20 employees, employee coverage generally becomes secondary to Medicare, and you should sign up for parts A and B. If you or your spouse has coverage through a current

employer with 20 or more employees, you don't have to sign up for Medicare while you' re still working. If you' re happy with your employee coverage and don't want to get Part B but are receiving Social Security benefits and automatically recei ved a Medicare card, you can send it back and ask for itto be reissued just for Part A. (You can't delay signing up for Part A if you are already on Social Security.)

When you do retire, you must sign up for Medicare Part B within eight months of leaving your job. You won' t be able to sign up online because you' ll need to provide evidence that you' ve had coverage through work since age 65.

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.

DEAR ANNIE: Our 22-year-old son recently asked his girlfriend to marry him.They have been dating for two years. Now he wants us to meet with her parents to talk about the wedding. The big topic of conversation will likely be fmances.

What is the proper way to discuss who pays for what in regards to the wedding? I am not sure how things work these days, and I assume the etiquette has changed over the years.

He is our oldest son, and this is our first wedding. — PARENTS IN PITTSBURGH DEAR PARENTS: You are right that things have changed, and generally for the better. It is no longer the rule that the bride's parents pay for nearly everything. Adult children with decent incomes shouldbe encouraged to pay fortheir own weddings,perhaps with help from both sets of parents. Some parents give the children a specific amount amI let them plan from there.

without going into debt. You can start this conversation by saying, '%'e are so happy the kids are getting married. What sort of event did you have in mind?"

the owner to retire with dignity.

I worked for a wonderM boss who promised to pass the business down to me when he retired. That was all fine until he died in his sleep from a heart attack, and I found that there was no plan in place. So the business was closed and I found myself unemployed, with no health insurance or retirement plan, at an age where finding a job with the same benefits and pay was nearly impossible. "Concerned" should take care of his/her own future. —LEARNED MY LESSON DEAR LFARNED: You' ve made an interesting suggestion. We hope the family is willing to consider allowing "Concerned" to buy out the owner.

Which to treat: Racing heart or cough from GERD? DEAR DR ROACH:My doctor put me on atenololfor occasional racing-

heart incidents: In the past 6ve or so years,I've experienced only three or four such incidents a year, lasting five to 15 minutes each time. I also have had a cough for years. I have had lung X-rays, a medication trial for asthma and an endoscopy to check for esophageal cancer; none of these panned out. Antihistamines help a little, as do cough drops, but I still cough all the time.

Finally, I saw a new ENT who said it was acid reflux and started me on

pantoprazole 40 mg twice a day for a month, then once a day after that. It worked! I was so excited that my cough was finally subsiding! But it came with a price: I was having the heart-racing episodes now at least twice a week. My doctor was skeptical that the pantoprazole was causing this, but he changed to another such drug to take once a day.

After starting the new drug, I had two racing-heart problems in one week that lasted 45-60 minutes! I knew it had to be the acid-reflux drugs, so I quit tak-

To YOUI'

Good Health Keith Roach, M.D. ing it. That was in February, and I have not had a single heart-racing problem since. I still take the atenolol once a day.

I simply cannot take a chance with my heart, yet I know I have to get rid of this cough, which must be from acid reflux.

I'm afraid ofgetting esophagealcancer, too. Help! — M.A.S. ANSWER: Chronic cough can have many causes, but the majority of people will have one of only three: post-nasal drip,asthma or gastroesophageal reflux disease. It's not uncommon to have some components of more than one. A trial of medication, such as the antihistamine, asthma inhaler and proton pump inhibitor, like omeprazole or pantoprazole, often isdone.

Since you had dramatic improvement with pantoprazole, it's likely that GERD is the major cause of the cough.

But exacerbat ions ofthe heartrateare a known side effect of pantoprazole, and it might be due to magnesium deficiency.This can be tested by your doctor; alternatively, you could ask your doctor about a magnesium supplement to see ifthat prevents thefastheartrate you experience with pantoprazole.

However, using a medicine to counteracta differentmedicine's side effect might not be the best way to handle it. Nonpharmacological treatments, including diet (avoiding excess fat, caffeine,chocolate,carbonated beverages, peppermint and spicy food), lifestyle (no food threehoursbeforebed,raising the head of your bed) and weight loss, ifappropriate,can be effective without the risk of medication side effects. Avoid tight clothing, quit smoking, chew gum and practic e breathing exercises, as thesealso can help.If m edicines are still necessary, the H2 Mockers, like ranitidine (Zantac) and famotidine (Pep-

ANSWER: M ost dried fruit i s healthy; however, there are two concerns: The first is that they have about the same amount of calories and sugar as wholefruit,and easily can be overeaten. The second is that you should beware of dried fruitswith added sugars.

Some driedfruits are preserved with sulfites. Sulfites, as I have mentioned, cause allergic symptoms in some people, butaretolerated by most.

On this date: In 1066, Normans under William the Conqueror defeated the English at the Battle of Hastings.

In 1586, Mary, Queen of Scots, went on trial in England, accused of committing treason against Queen Elizabeth I. (Mary was beheaded in February 1587.)

In 1912, former President Theodore Roosevelt, campaigning for the White House as the Progressive ( Bull Moose ) candidate, went ahead with a speech in Milwaukee after being shot in the chest by New York saloonkeeper John Schrank, declaring, "It takes more than one bullet to kill a bull moose."

In 1939, a German Uboat torpedoed and sank the HMS Royal Oak, a British battleship anchored at Scapa Flow in Scotland's Orkney Islands; 833 of the more than 1,200 men aboard were killed.

In 1944, German Field Marshal Erwin Rommel committed suicide rather than face trial and certain execution for allegedly conspiring against Adolf Hitler.

In 1947, Air Force test pilot Charles E. (" Chuck" ) Yeager (YAY'-gur) broke the sound barrier as he flew the experimental Bell XS-1 (later X-1) rocket plane over Muroc Dry Lake in California.

Innovate and over-prepare. Rest deeply.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 Jan. 19):Today is an 8 — Group participation energizes your goal. Participate and contribute. You' re on a roll. It's sll for friends and family. Share food and drink with people you love. Share resources and connections. You don't have to start from scratch.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):Today is an 8 — A rise in professional level is available if you pass the test. Clean up the presentation. Smile for the cameras. Provide excellent service. Add an artistic touch. Relax later when the spotlight has passed. Invest in your career.

Four choices at trick three

North 10-14-15 4974

By PHILLIP ALDER V 63 t K 7 64 3 George S. Kaufman, a dramatist and journalist 4 A5 2 w ho died in 1961, said, "Once upon a time there W e s t East were three bears: Papa Bear, Mama Bear, and 4 83 4105 2 Camembert."

V A K Q 10 8 5 V 92 That's a pretty cheesy comment, but in this p Jg I Q108 2 deal, declarer must bear up at trick three. He is in y q yp 9 4 J7 6 4 four spades. West leads the heart ace: three, nine, South four. West cashes the heart king: six, two, jack.

4 A KQJ 6 West continues with the heart queen. What should 7 J74 declarer do?

I A5 First, South should check his losers. He seems to 4 K88 have only three: two in hearts and one in clubs. But Dealer: South he must also worry about that third heart. East has Vulnerable: Both played high-low, indicating a doubleton. Yes, he might be fooling, but what if he is not? Then he is S outh W e s t No r t h Ea s t threatening to overruff the dummy at trick three and 14 2V 24 Pass give declarer an extra loser.

44 Pass Pas s Pas s At trick three, South has four dummy choices: ruff low, ruff middle, ruff high, or discard. Which Opening lead: 7 A should he choose?

As I am confident you have worked out by now, the second-best play is to ruff with dummy's spade nine. Maybe West has the 10. Here, though, East overruffs and the contract goes down one.

Instead, declarer should discard one of dummy's clubs. In this way, he trades a dangerous ruff in hearts for a much safer ruff in clubs.

Suppose West shifts to a club. South wins with dummy's ace (the honor from the shorter side first), draws two rounds of trumps, cashes his club king, ruffs his last club in the dummy, plays a diamond to his ace, draws East's third trump, and claims.

If an opponent may objectionably overruff, consider shedding an inevitable loser.

OAKLAND (AP) — With an NBA title, 67 regular season wins and an MVP performance from Stephen Curry, it would seem it would be hard for things to get much better for the Golden State Warriors.

Not the case.

San 3osebeats Washington 54 WASHINGTON (AP) — Martin Jones made 31 saves for his second straight shutout and San Jose took advantage of Alex Ovechkin's absence from Washington's lineup.

The Sharks improved to 3-0-0 and have outscored their opponents 12-1. Jones allowed a goal on the first shot he faced this season, but has blanked opponents for the following 178 minutes, 11 seconds.

Matt Nieto and Chris Tierney each had a goal and an assist, and Joe Thornton, Mike Brown andTomas Hertl added goals.

Ovechkin missed the game because of personal reasons. The Capitals sent out a note on Twitter about 35 minutes before the game saying the Russian star would not play.

Ovechkin had a goal and an assist Saturday night in Washington's season-opening victory over New Jersey. Defenseman John Carlson played his 400th NHL game, all with the Capitals Carlson also has played 380 consecutive games.

Police described the mother as being in her 40s or 50s, and her son as being between 25 and 30.

The man injured in the fight, who was taken to the hospital in critical condition, was in serious but stable condition Tuesday. Detectives began interviewing him Tuesday for more details about what happened, and they will be speaking to him again, Officer Mike Lopez said.

the Raiders' struggles. ''When you look at some of the runs,there's a difference of one popping for a long one and not," Murray said. "It' s not a matter of when or how many times. It's just a matter of making the most of the carriesthat we doget."

The Raiders average a respectable 4.0 yards per carry and Murray is 10th overall in the NFL with 336 yards. Both numbers are misleading.

Nearly a quarter of Oakl and's 450 yards on t h e ground came on four plays — a 54-yard run by Murrray, a 20-yarder by Murray, a 24yard scramble by quarterback Derek Carr and a 12yard gain by third-down back Roy Helu Jr.

A lack of depth hasn' t helped, either.

Backup Taiwan J o nes missed the last two games with a foot injury, and Helu, Jamize Olawale and Marcel Recce have only been marginally effective when given the ball.

That's why the bye week comes at a good time for the Raiders and t heir b eleaguered running game.

"It's obviously a good time to getsome rest,relax and heal up," Murray said. "It' s some time off and that always helps. We believe in each other and that's the main thing going forward. We just have to make sure we' re playing better at the end to finish ofF games."
