County The gift of warmth appeals DA ruling Asks state Supreme Court to intervene in election case By BEN BROWN The Daily Journal The Mendocino County Board of Supervisors filed an appeal with the California Supreme Court Friday, of the Nov. 21 decision by the First District Appellate Court that annulled the Nov. 7 Mendocino County district attorney’s election and ordered a special election. Fort Bragg attorney and district attorney candidate Meredith Lintott also filed an appeal of the Appellate Court decision Friday. The board met in a special session Nov. 24 and decided in a 3-0 vote to appeal the Appellate Court’s decision. According to the court, no briefs have been filed in the case, but County Counsel Jeanine Nadel has asked the state Supreme Court to stay the Appellate Court’s decision until the Supreme Court has the opportunity to rule. At press time, a stay had not been granted, according to the court. The Board of Supervisors is scheduled to have further discussion about the appeal in a closed session during its Tuesday meeting. Ben Brown can be reached at [email protected].

THE LEARNING CHALLENGER by Robert Barnett

DIRECTIONS: A. Using each "Chaos Grid" number with its letter one time, arrange the numbers with their letters for the "Order Grid" so each vertical column, horizontal row, and two diagonals each ADD to numbers inside thick lined cells. 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 letters from horizontal rows, from left to right, under "Decoded Message" and make words to form the answer.
