Mendocino County’s preliminary June 2008 unemployment rate was 6.4 percent, up from the revised May rate of 6.3 percent, and 1.3 percent above the year-ago, June 2007 rate of 5.1 percent. At 6.4 percent, Mendocino ranked 16th among the State’s 58 counties. Some sur- rounding county rates included 9.5 percent for Lake, 6.7 percent for Humboldt, and 5.6 percent for Sonoma. Marin had the lowest rate in the State at 4.6 percent and Imperial County had the highest with 22.6 percent. The comparable California and U.S. rates were 7 and 5.7 percent respec- tively.

COMMUNITY SPORTS | MEN’S SOFTBALL TOURNAMENT Sports Summer Shoot Out Briefly Raiders sign S Greg Wesley

By JOSH DUBOW Associated Press ALAMEDA — The Oakland Raiders agreed to terms on a one-year contract with former Kansas City Chiefs safety Greg Wesley on Tuesday, adding depth to the position on the eve of training camp. Agent Drew Rosenhaus said Wesley was happy to remain in the AFC West and looked forward to playing against the Chiefs twice this season. Wesley gives the Raiders depth at safety behind starters Gibril Wilson and Michael Huff. Wilson signed a $39 million, six-year contract that included about $16 million in guaran- teed money after winning the Super Bowl last season with the New York Giants. Huff, Oakland’s first-round pick in 2006, is moving to his more natural free safety position after playing his first two seasons at strong safety. Wesley will compete with fourth- round pick Tyvon Branch, special teams star Jarrod Cooper and Hiram Eugene for a backup spot with the Raiders. The Raiders had been seeking bet- ter tacklers at safety after allowing a league-worst 4.8 yards per carry last season. Wesley, a third-round pick out of Arkansas-Pine Bluff in 2000, was released last week by the Chiefs. He was a starter for his first seven sea- sons before being relegated to a back- Photos courtesy City of Ukiah sports up role last season.

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 let- ters from horizontal rows, from left to right, under "Decoded Message" and make words to form the answer.
