At some point in the middle of the road, he stopped and gazed down on what had become a desolate hillside with charred toothpicks sticking from out the ground. He pointed at a pile of rubble ona lotoffofEastMurray Creek and indicated that it was his property. Then, after a brief pause, he amended his declaration.

Trees fall year-round in the Mother Lode fromfactors including age,stress, infestation and structural weakness. In recent weeks, several trees have fallen, from Twain Harte to Columbia, and some of the falling trees have coincided with wet weather. Shawn Price was sound asleep early Monday when he heard a sizable oak tree come down on his property near Yankee Hill. aIt was unexpected," Price said. "It was a healthy oak tree, a good 40-footer. "After midnight, we were asleep and we were wakened by the crash, swoosh and booml" Price said. "It was gracious — it didn't land on a car or a structure

Price said he believes a combination of root rot and wind brought down the vulnerable oak. "Now I'm worried about a lot of other trees," Price said."There are more oaks

Day of the Dead

Prope owners accused of unauthorized water diversions

State: Water allegedly diverted from Tuolumne River to irrigate crops By GUY McCARTHY The Union Democrat

The sixth annual Murphys Day of the Dead (Dia de los Muertos) event was held Saturday in downtown Murphys, and featured art, vendors, music, food and wine. A Mexican holiday, Day of the Dead focuses on gatherings of family and friends to pray for and remember those who have died, and help support their spiritual journey. Rondalla Presencia De Amor, of Stockton (above), performs Saturday at Murphys Community Park.

Two Stanislaus County property owners are named in a draft ceaseand-desist order and an administrative civil liability complaint for alleged unauthorized d i versions from the Tuolumne River, officials with t h e S t ate Water Resources Control Board said Monday. The complaint against the property owners imposes a civil liability penalty of $332,500 for the alleged violations. Aerial maps dated March 31 show about three-quarters of the land in question planted with crops and an immature orchard on the remainder, according to a six-page complaint. On Aug. 27, state Division of Water Rights staff observed a corn crop on a portion of the land. The property owners, identified as M ik e Passalaqua and Peder Hoy, are accused of diverting an estimated 522acre-feet of water in 2014 and 2015, after being notified there was no w a ter

ment.

State water official s contend Passalaqua and Hoy did not respond to an informational order mailed to them in May this year. Unauthorized diversions and failing to provide required information are both violations of the State Water Code.

neighbors on marijuana? Canada was recently ranked the &eest country in the world, but newly installed Prime Minister Justin Trudeau isn't about to let it rest on its maple leaves. He won the October national elections after proposing something no major American presidential nominee has ever dared to endorse: legalizing marijuana. His Party that because of the current ban, "proceeds from the illegal drug trade support organized crime and greater threats to public safety, like human trafficking and hard drugs." Its platform called for legalizing, regulating and taxing cannabis. The Liberals probably benefited from Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper's hysterical claim that "marijuana is infinitely worse" than tobaccowhich, experts promptly noted, kills more Canadians than alcohol, hard drugs, guns, car wrecks and HIV combined. Trudeau is now in a position to change the pot law, since he commands a majority in the House of Commons as well as agreement &om small parties that hold seats. Public opinion is on his side, with 56 percent of Canadians favoring legalization. The voters favoredTrudeau's party despite — or because of — his admission to smoking pot as a member of Parliament. Our neighbor to the north, however, will have to hurry to get ahead of our neighbor to the south. On Wednesday, the Mexican Supreme Court ruled that individuals have a right to grow and consume marijuana as they please, as a simple matter of liberty. "The responsible decision taken to experiment with the effects of this substance — whatever personal harm it might to — belongs within the autonomy of the individual, protected by their &eedom to develop themselves," wrote Justice Arturo Zaldivar. In the United States, things are moving more slowly, but in the same direction. On Tuesday, Ohioans rejected legalization even though polls indicate most of them favor the concept. This measure would have granted exclusive production rights to 10 groups of investors, which did not go over well. Even groups like the Drug Policy Alliance and the Marijuana Policy Project could not bring themselves to endorse the plan,preferring tobe neutral. Four stateshave already allowed recreati onal weed: Washington, Colorado, Oregon and Alaska (in addition to the District of Columbia). How was it worked out? In Washington and Colorado, the first to do it, public support has grown as opponents realized that their fears were misplaced or exaggerated. Votersare likely to getthe chance to decide the issue in several other states next year, including Cali-

fornia, Massachusetts and Arizona. Vermont has a

betteridea.Itappears poised to become the fi rststate to legalize pot by the legislative process. If that happens, "the dam breaks," predicts Allen St.Pierre,executive director of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws. "Nearly all of New England will move that way," he told me. Something similar happened a few years ago with civil unions. Speaking of Vermont, its junior senator, Bernie Sanders, has introduced a bill to end the federal ban on cannabis, which would leave the question entirely up to the states. He has also said that if he lived in Nevada, which will have a ballot measure next year to legalize pot, he would vote for it. The war on drugs, he believes, "has done an enormous amount of damage." Thosearepretty bold words fora presidentialcandidate. But in this case, the public has raced ahead of the politicians. An October Gallup poll found that 58 percent of Americans support legalization — a higher share of the electorate than in Canada, and up &om just 36 percent a decade ago. Decades of exposure to the drug have persuaded people that the dangers of allowing cannabis consumption are smaller than the harms caused by out-

lawing it. Those include enriching homicidal criminal gangs here and in Mexico, as well as damaging lives and wasting money arresting hapless stoners. Given the choice, as it happens, most people still wouldn't smoke weed. In the Netherlands, where cannabis shops are allowed, marijuana use among adults and teens is lower than it is here. Another harm is that prohibition deprives individualsofthe liberty to decide whether thepleasures of using pot outweigh the relatively mild health risks it presents. Legalization would be a big step toward making the United States freer — you know, like some other parts of North America. Steve Chapman t sa columnist and editorial rewriter

declines under the Obama presidency have been recorded by women, Hispanics, blacks and young workers — the very groups he promised to help. According to Sentier Research, single women saw their incomes fall by roughly 5 percent in the five years following the end of the Great Recession in 2009. Those ages 25-34 experienced an income decline of 4.4 percent. Black heads-of-households saw their income tumble by 7.7 percent, while Hispanic heads-of-households' income fell 5.6 percent. These income declines don't even include the huge hit that families took during the 2008-2009 recession. National Debt: Up. During President Obama's tenure, the national debt has soared more than $7.5 trillion to surpass $18 trillion, and the new budget deal means that, by the time he leaves ofFice, the debt will have nearly doubled. The federal debt has now hit more than $220,000 per household — which is like a second mortgage. Taxes: Up. President Obama has raised taxes on investment income, dead people, medical device manufacturers, health insurancepolicies,sm okers and hospitalsto name a few. Further, Obamacare's "indi-

A6 — Tuesday, November 10, 2015 TUOLUMNE UTILITIES DISTRICT NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING REGARDING POTENTIAL INCREASES TO WATER AND SEWER RATES AND CHARGES

Notice is hereby given that the Board of Directors of the TuolumneUtilities District will hold a Public Hearing at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, November17, 2015 inthe District Boardroomat 18885Nugget Blvd., Sonora,California, to considerthe adopfion of proposedwater andsewer rates that would gointo effect on January 1,2016.

The proposedrate increase is necessary to pay for the operation and maintenance of the water andsewer systems, replace outdated and failing equipment and faciliTies, comply with State and federal regulations, and to establish a small Iinancial reserve toaddressfuture needsand avoid operational degcits andfinancial instability. The changes to the proposed rates and charges listed in this nofice are the maximumchanges proposed.

TheFixed Service Charge isestablished basedonthe size of the water meter serving a properly. If approved, this increase would becomeelfecbve on January 1, 2016, followed by incremental increaseseachJanuary 1st from 2017 to2020. Most TUDcustomers have a 1 size meter or less, if the proposed fixed charge of $47.50 is approved, atypical family's water bill would beapproximately $60 a month, assumingdaily water use of 225 gallonsper day.

'Whistleblower' complaint lodged over work for Gov. SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A worker in the stateoiland gas regulatory agency lodged a whistleblower's complaint over being ordered to preparea state map ofthe oiland gas potential, history and geology of California Gov. Jerry Brown's family ranch, the worker and

the public, and say that oil and gas regulators routinely do such research for the public. However, four oil-industry professionals and three former officials whose tenure with the state oil and gas agency spanned from the 1980s to 2013 told the AP they know of no other instance where the state performed that scale of satellite-imaged geology and drilling map, development assessment and compilingof state records for a private individual. Brown's request to oil regulators points to the complex way that the governor, an internationally known advocate of renewable energy, approaches oil and gas issues in his own state. While spearheading ambitious programs to curb the use of climate-changing fossil fuels, Brown also has sought to spur oil production in California, the country's No. 3 oil-producing state. Contacted at work, Catalano confirmed the whistleblower's complaint but declined further comment. Teresa Schilling, a spokeswoman for the Department of Conservation, declined to comment Monday, saying the agency does not comment on potential per-

her attorney said Monday. Jennie Catalano, a mapping specialist who has been with the state Department of Conservation for 18 years, brought the complaint. She contends that she faced unspecified retaliation after being suspected of lodgingthe complaint over being directed to do the personal work for Brown, said her attorney, William Rehwald. "I was asked to help her in part because she does feelthat she's being retaliated against because she's a whistleblower," Rehwald said. State records obtained by The Associated Press show Brown in June 2014 directed senior officials at the Department of Conservation's oil and gas regulatory agency to map, research and assess the oil, gas and mineral history and potentialofhis2,700-acre family ranch in Northern California near Williams.

"Rain will always bring trees down, drought orno drought," Nye said Monday afternoon. "In the past couple weeks we' ve dealt with two trees that fell. An oak with root rot and a dead pine from termites." Nye advises people with fresh-killed trees on their property to keep an eye on them.

hired in early 2014, also stepped down from his position in late May. The shake-up left the chamber reeling just months prior to its biggest annual fundraiser, the 49er Festival. However, members of the community stepped up to ensure this year's event on Sept. 19 went off without a hitch. The nonprofitGroveland Area Involved Neighbors offered to loan the chamber $5,000ifneeded to cover pre-festival costs, but Clawson said the chamber was able to organize the event without borrowing money. "With the revenues from the festival, we were ableto cover all of the costs and replenish some of our operating funds," Clawson said. "That was one area where we had tremendous community support." Clawson, a retired businessman who has worked for three Fortune 500 companies, said hewas honored to be selected to serve as theorganization's president.He replaces

Also, the leaders have been updating the chamber's membership list and believe there are about 120 active, dues-paying individuals and businesses. Membership renewal notices were recently sent to those confirmed as active members. "I would expect the chamber membership will be smaller than what it was in the past," Clawson said.

Hernandez, former Vice President Earl Wright and former Treasurer Cathy Leetham were the only board members who remained after the missing funds came to light. Some in the community blamed the fiasco on a lack of oversight and called for the three to resign as well, but they stayed on to help the chamber rebuild. Leetham and Wright will remain on the board at the request of the new leaders, according to Clawson. "There's a lot of people that have opinions, but the fact is that it happened and we have to move on," he said.

Mosley added that all of the changes are intended to promote transparency and improve oversight to prevent future financial issues, while the chamber awaits the results of the pending criminal investigation. The investigation has t aken several months because of the time it took to collect evidence from other businesses and organizations, as well as other serious cases that have diverted the attention of investigators. SherifFs Lt. Jarrod Pippin said they are investigating the alleged crime as a felony because the amount of missing funds exceeds $950. He couldn't provide an exact figure, but said the evidence points to "several thousands" of dollars. One suspect has been identified, though Pippin declined to provide further details due to the lack of an arrest. The District Attorney's Office will review the findings and determine what formal charges, if any, will be filed. "We' re hoping to see something there," Mosley said of the investigation. "We need to make sure that others don't get the idea that it's easy and anybody can do it and get away with it."

"We teach them about freezing techniques, dehydrating techniques, boiling-water canning, steamed canning and pressure canning," Mosbacher said that the UCCE has been doing classes in El Dorado County for 30 years, and started classes in Calaveras and Amador counties in 2012 based on public requests. "I had some volunteers who were willing to help," Mosbacher said. cWe're growing it little by little.It can't grow too fast,because the training is all hands-on. There's a lot of lab work, and you have to make sure you have all the equipment for it." In terms of how the subject of each class is determined, Mosbacher says they started with the core topics and eventually moved ontorequested topics. "We started with the things that are more popular. People want to learn how to make jams and jellies. In there, you can teach the basic techniques of canning high-acid foods. Then we always do a pressure-canning class so people can learn how to can soups and meats. Then we do a pickling class," Mosbacher said. 'Then we have class evaluations and ask What else would you like to see?' " The next fice class, "Citrus Squeeze," will be held Saturday and will feature instruction on how to can three marmalades, including a colorful cranberry marmalade

and a three-citrus marmalade. Recipe nutrition, per

Activi could help ease hubby's loneliness DEARANNIE: My wife and I have been togetherfor 10 years and married for two. I still work full time, but my wife took early retirement last spring, and now she spends weeks at a time visiting different members of her family. When she is gone, she rarely answers her phone. I' ve noticed that when she's away, I sleep antI eat more, rarely socialize and don't get things done that I should. I believe Fm depressed without her. Sometimes I pretend that I have no partner and don't care that she's away. I get through those weeks much better that way. I believe it would be easier if she calledme daily or at least answered my calls, so I don't feel cut off and alone. She doesn't understand this. She says phone calls interfere with her visits. Annie, wouldn't any normal person understand calling her spouse to touch base once a day? Is it rightfor couplesto be apartso

Annie's

Mailbox ' +-5 much? I really want this marriage to work, but it seems rather one-sided. — LONELY AND DEPRESSED IN THE MIDWEST. DEAR LONELY: Most couples check in once a day or at least e very other da y w h e n t h ey are apart. The fact that your wife doesn't want to do this for weeks at a time worries us. We know some readers will question whether she is even visiting relatives or doing something altogether different, but we think your wife considers time away from you tobe her vacation, and she is reluctant to be reminded otherwise. When she next returns home, you can ask her about this. You

can consider counseling together. But we also recommend that you stay active while she's away. Find something to do that will keep your mind busy so you are less depressed and lonely. Take up a hobby. Work on a project around thehouse. Go to the gym — exercfse isgood for raisiag endorphins and making you feel better. DEAR ANNIE: I have three adult granddaughters, and I have been sending them $50 for each of their birthdays and at Christmas. They neverthank me,butIknow theyhave cashed the checks. I also send gifts for my great-grandchildren with no acknowledgement. I am struggling with whether to continue this tradition. I never get a Christmas card or birthday card from them. Also, I had breast cancer and a double mastectomy a few years ago and theynever ask how I' m doing. I feel bad if I don't send them a gift,

but don't you think this relationship should work both ways? — DISAPPOINTED IN THEM DEAR DISAPPOINTED: Many grandchildren think gifts and cards only flow one way. You have to tell them. But all gifts should be acknowledged in some form, and if your grandchildren don't do this, it's time to stop. When they ask why they didn' t get a Christmas gift from Nana this year,simply say you never hear back from them, so you assume they don't particularly like your presents. That should take care of it. Annie'8 Mailbox iswritten by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editorsof the Ann Landers column.

For a few, high cholesterol poses no heart risk DEAR DR ROACH:I am a 68-yearold female with a more-than-40-year history of extremely high cholesterol (350-411total).Ihave notbeen ableto tolerate any kind of statin drug, even if I take CoQ10 with it. Welchol and Zetia had sideefFectsthatIcouldn'ttolerate either. I am not diabetic, and my blood pressureis generally around 120/80. My total cholesterol is 354, with HDL at 60,triglyceridesat133andLDL at269. Carotid ultrasound, echocardiogram and, finally, a CT scan of my heart were negative for any significant atherosclerosis. My calcium score was O. My diet i8 fish, chicken and legumes. How can I have such high cholesterol for over 40 years and have a calcium score of 0?My doctor still insists I take a statin. Why should I take statins for a condition thatdoesn'tappeartoexist?Iwenttoa cardiologist who could not explain how I could have had these numbers for years and not have issues. He agrees that I should take a Statin for prevention purposes. Can you shed some light on this? I don't want to Su6'er with constant muscle aches and weakness if

To Your Good Health Keith Roach, M.D. there is ttoneed to. — Anon.

ANSWER A cholesterol number of 354 with an LDL of 269 is a clear indicationfora statin drug.The oddsfor notdevelopingheartdiseaseare better with a statin, but some people, even without any medication, will never get

heart blockages; some people with cholesterol numbers like yours will never getheartdisease.Itappears from the many studies you have had that you are one of those who are destined not to, or at least notfor quite a few years kom now.

The guidelines clearly state that most people like you should be taking a statin, but not everybody fits the guidelines. While it is possible that you

still have blockages (blockages with a calcium score of 0 are unlikely, but not impossible), in my opinion, the small possible benefit isn't worth the side effects you have had. I can say that only because of the three tests you took being negative. DEAR DR. ROACH:I was hoping that you could answer a quick question. Iam a46-year-old female and have hemochromatosis. I can't get very good medical care where I live. It's a small town where I can't switch doctors, and mine is subpar. Anyway, I just had a blood test, and my ferritin is 39 and my saturation is 0.76. I don't know if I need a phlebotomy. The doc likes to have me do it when my ferritin i8 in the 50-75 range. He has NEVER mentioned saturation before. Can you shed some light on this? — A.R. ANSWER: Hemochromatosis is iron overload caused by the body being unable to reduce iron absorption even when it doesn't need iron. The high iron saturation is a good test for diagnosing hemochromatosis. However, it's the ferritin that best

approximatestotalbody iron stores. A largeproportion ofthebody'8 iron is located in the red blood cells, so by removing these through phlebotomy (literally, "bloodletting" + usually the bloodi8donated),iron is taken outof the body. Most experts remove iron through phlebotomy until ferritin levels are below 50. Someone with a ferritin of 39probably doesn't need treatment, since the total body iron is nearly normal.

Today in history Today is Tuesday, Nov. 10,the 314th day of 2015. There are 51 days left in the year. Today's Highlights in History: On Nov. 10, 1975, the U.N. General As sembly approved a resolution equating Zionism with racism (the world body repealed the resolution in Dec. 1991). The ore-hauling ship SS Edmund Fitzgerald mysteriously sank during a storm in Lake Superior with the loss of all 29 crew members. On this date: In 1775, the U.S. Marines were organized under authority of the Continental Congress. In 1938, Kate Smith first sang Irving Berlin's "God Bless America" on her CBS radio program. Turkish statesman Mustafa Kemal Ataturk died in Istanbul at age 57. In 1942, Winston Churchill delivered a speech in London in which he said, "I have not become the King's First Minister to preside over the liquidation of the British Empire." In 1951, customer-dialed longdistance telephone service began as Mayor M. Leslie Denning of Englewood, New Jersey, called Alameda, California, Mayor Frank Osborne without operator assistance. In 1954, the U.S. Marine Corps Memorial, depicting the raising of the American flag on Iwo Jima in 1945, was dedicated by President Dwight D. Eisenhower in Arlington, Virginia. In 1969, the children's educational program "Sesame Street" made its debut on National Educational Television (later PBS). In 1982, the newly finished Vietnam Veterans Memorial was opened to its first visitors in Washington, D.C., three days before its dedication. Soviet leader Leonid I. Brezhnev died at age 75. In 1990, the movie comedy "Home Alone," starring Macaulay Culkin, premiered in Chicago. In 2004, word reached the United States of the death of Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat at age 75 (because of the time difference, it was the early hours of Nov. 11 in Paris, where Arafat died).

Today's deal revolved around the numbers three and nine. South was in three-no-trump. Can Q2 you see the three ways he could have collected nine tricks? West started with three rounds of hearts, and East discarded a spade and a diamond. Note South's initial takeout double.

He had potential winners in both black suits, but West, who was marked with the missing aces, was threatening to establish and run his hearts. Declarer had to make it too expensive for West to take tricks with those aces. At trick four, South led his low spade. If West had jumped in with his ace, declarer would have claimed his contract with three spades, two hearts and four diamonds. So West played low. Now South repeated the formula. He won with dummy's spade jack, played a diamond to his hand and led a low club. If West had taken that trick, declarer would have had nine tricks via one spade, two hearts, four diamonds and two clubs. But when West ducked again, South won w ithdummy's queen and led a spade to hisqueen to gethome with two spades,two hearts, four diamonds and one club.

THE UN' DEMO CRAT

oconu mi,s e a By MEGAN GORDON Tribune Content Agency

At this point in my baking career, and as a home cook, I do feel as though the world might not need another scone. There are great cream scone recipes out there, and wonderful flaky butter scones; there are scones packed with whole grain oats and berries, and others cloaked in sweet, sugary glazes. So why another scone today? I happen to be a big fan of coconut and started to think about what would happen if I used coconut milk instead of buttermilk or yogurt in sconedough, and then folded in a heap of toasted coconut and some dark chocolate bits. Would that, in fact, be a scone worth writing about? I'm here to report back that yes, they are in fact worth talking about. My mom just came and stayed with us for a few days, and we all had a serious discussion about scones one morning. My mom doesn' t

careforthem, insisting they'refartoo dry and just not all that interesting. Try to convince someone who thinks a scone is dry that a whole grain scone will be even better? Tough to do. But that's why I chose to add some spelt flour alongside the usual wheat flour for these particular scones. I find spelt flour to be really easy to work with and an easy introduction to whole grain flours for people who might be otherwise unconvinced. It bakes much like all-purpose flour (although it tends to soak up a bit more moisture), and combining it with some standard whole wheat flour creates a whole grain scone with a pleasant, earthy flavor. The butter and full-fat coconut milk also help keep these scones perfectly tender. As for making these scones in advance, you have a few options: First off, you can bake them, let them cool completely, wrap them well in plastic wrap and then freeze them. I like to

wrap them individually so that later, when weekday breakfasts get harried, I can pull one out and quickly heat it in our convection oven.Itfeels like a pretty big treat.Alternatively, you can make the dough and shape the scones, and then freeze them unbaked. When you want fresh scones, just pull them out and bake as usual, adding on an extra minute or two to the baking time. They do make the house smell pretty wonderful, so I usually opt for the bake-them-alloff route and then freeze a few for later. I like having them around to give to friends or to share with my husband in the afternoon. They are notatalltoo sweet,so they don'tfeellike as much of an indulgence as, say, a cookie. But that's not to say I don't love them slathered with butter. I hope you will, too.

A potent powerhouse, garlic enlivens the flavor and nutrition of any dish, leaving a lasting impact on the palate— as well as the breath! The folklore. Garlic's unassuming appearance in no way reflects its true nature. First cultivated over 5,000 years ago, this Central Asia native has a reputation as a culinary and medicinal star in traditional medicine for centuries. Ancient cultures used garlicto aid the heart and digestion, as well as improve physical strength. The facts. Garlic (Allium sativum) has universal appeal for its raw, bold pungency and cooked creamy sweetness. The bulb, comprised of numerous cloves, is grown underground like its onion and leek cousins and contains allacin, a sulfur-containing compound responsible for garlic's telltale aroma and health-promotingproperties. Garlic also is a good source of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. One small bulb packs 17 percent DV (Percent Daily Value, based on 2,000 calories per day) of heart-healthy vitamin B6,and 23 percent DV and 15 percent DV, respectively, of manganese and vitamin C, known to protect against damaging free radicals. The findings. While garlic has been widelytouted for its heart protection, the research on proven benefits is conflicting. However, a recent meta-analysis of more than 100 studies provided "consistent evidence" that garlicpowder reduces total cholesterol, LDL ("bad") cholesterol, fasting bloodglucose and blood pressure

The days when Bailey would eat nothing but pizza, chicken, french fries, chocolate chip cookies, and chips with dip almost seem like a faint memory. "He wasn't even eating food untilhe was 8 years old," said Nick Shipp, executive chef at The Upper West, the Santa Monica restaurant where Bailey helps cook dinner once a week. "For him to go from that to cooking and eating all kinds of different things, it's pretty remarkable." After her son's diagnosis, friends and acquaintances preparedMary Bailey forthe worst. He'd never be able to have a job, some said. He' d probably never learn to socialize. And he'd never be independent. 'You just hear a lot of things that are downers," she

She immediately placed her son in school and therapy. At home, she struggled to get him to eat. Like many on the autism spectrum, Chase found food overwhelming. The sight, smell, feel and taste of almost everythmg put on his platetipped his sensory system over the edge. "I didn't like how it looked," he said. "I didn't like how it smelled." Then he started watching cooking shows with his grandfather. He got hooked on seeing people enjoy the food they were eating. Within six months, he started asking to try some of the foods he saw on shows like Cooking Channel's "Eat St." and Food Network's "Chopped." Among his early requests: fried alligator, frog legs and beef tongue. "He was just devouring it," Mary Bailey recalled with a laugh.

"It was no big deal," Bailey said nonchalantly. "I'm like, 'If they' re doing it, I'm doing it.' " In the show, a confident, charismatic Chase whips up everything from cupcakes to braised rabbit. The showwhich now has more than 30 episodes online — has garnered tens of thousands of views.

"Ilovethat there's a story behind it," said Sumner, an actress living in Los Angeles. She recently taped a holiday special with the teen. "Food is emotional." The most challenging part, Mary Bailey said, has been learning how to produce a show. She spent 20 years in the corporateworld before leaving a management position to focus full-time on her son.

A big-time play in another close finish for the Chicago Bears, who beat the staggering San Diego Chargers 22-19 on Monday night. "Jay made a great throw and I was able to go up and get it. After that, I went unconscious," Miller said about his game-winning catch with 3:19 left. "It was one of those things where instincts kind of take over. I really didn't have time to go up with two, because he put some juice on it. I went with one and thankfuHy pulled it down." Miller's TD reception and a 2-point conversion run by rookie Jeremy L a ngford, subbing for the injured Matt Forte, gave the Bears (3-5) their first lead of the night.

THE UN' DEMO CRAT

More and earlier trade talk as GMs gather BOCA RATON, Fla. (AP) — Dave Dombrowski, Boston's new president of baseball operations,asked some ofhis staff to arrive by afternoon to get ahead start on the annual general managers' meetings, which began with a dinner Monday night. "By the time I sat down, they said, like, wow, we just got here and we' re behind because we had had so many discussions already," he said. Just eight days after the World Series, the offseason trade and signings season intensified with the start of the four-day session, usually a warmup to the larger winter meetings in December. Since the start of August, new general managershave been appointed for Detroit, Milwaukee, Boston, Seattle, Atlanta, the Los Angeles Angels, Oakland, Cincinnati and Philadelphia, and Toronto has an interim baseball operations head.
