Deputies contacted the unnamed victim, 55, who advised that her next door neighbor, Russell Sawyer, 48, of Ukiah, had entered her home in the early evening hours without permis- sion. According to a press release from MCSO, Sawyer grabbed the victim and attempted to sexually assault her. The victim attempted escape via the front door, however, Sawyer pulled the victim further into the residence against her will. After approximately two minutes of struggling with Sawyer she managed to get free and fled the area in her vehicle. Sawyer was contacted by Mendocino County Sheriff's Deputies at his residence where he was arrested on suspicion of kidnapping to commit rape, assault with intent to commit bur- glary and false imprisonment. He was incarcerated at the Mendocino County jail without bail.

MLB | A‘S RACING | LAKEPORT SPEEDWAY Thomas faces former Memorial Weekend racing Toronto team By JANIE McCAULEY Associated Press OAKLAND — The dancing gorilla sent to the field for Frank Thomas from his family had balloons and a special birthday message, along with a bit of advice: “Don’t get mad, get even.” The Big Hurt turned 40 on Tuesday and said he had no hurt feelings about his departure from Toronto last month. Thomas and the Oakland Athletics opened a three-game series against the Blue Jays, who granted Thomas his release April 20 after he became upset about a lack of playing time. “It is my birthday, so hopefully I have a good night,” he said. “It’s always fun when you face your ex- teammates.” Thomas calls himself a “slow starter” who typically finds his stroke in mid-May to early June, and he does- n’t believe the Blue Jays gave him enough time to get comfortable at the plate. “I’ve been used properly here. Being in the 4 hole every day is where I belong and where I played my whole career. I just feel comfortable hitting where I deserve to hit, and I’ve been able to get relaxed and start hitting the way I hit.” Thomas had been hitless in his pre- vious 16 at-bats and was 4-for-38 since homering in three straight games April 5-8. He batted .167 with three homers and 11 RBIs for Toronto. photo by Kristen Dover/Lakeport Speedway “I hope he doesn’t have a flair for the Main event Street Stock action.

B. Some correct numbers with their letters have been put into the "Order Grid" to get you started. Also, above the "Order Grid" is a "Decoded Message" clue. C. After you have solved the "Order Grid" doing as direction "A" says, put the let- ters from horizontal rows, from left to right, under "Decoded Message" and make words to form the answer.
