Flow reductions, in an effort to keep more water in Lake Mendocino for the annual chinook migration later this fall, will be phased in over a peri- od of about three weeks starting immediately, according to the water agency. The request to reduce flow rates was made to the State Board on April 26 based on projections indicating critically low water levels in Lake Mendocino this fall. Sonoma County Water Agency engineers projected that water levels in Lake Mendocino would drop to levels lower than 10,000 acre-feet, which would be the lowest levels recorded since the lake was first opened in 1959. State Board approval allows the minimum instream flow required upstream from Healdsburg to be cut from 185 cubic feet per second (cfs) to 75 cfs.

The Warriors have thrived on emotion for two months — ever since Davis returned from injury and led Golden State’s fantastic finish to the regular season. But coach Don Nelson knows emotion sometimes doesn’t help late in games, when precision and execution would be more use- ful. “We played two great games there,” Nelson said. “We could have won both of them. Yes, we are in trouble. Our hands are full right now. We’re playing a very good team that’s playing as well as they have all year.” The Warriors led by five points in the final minute of Game 2, but Mickael Pietrus missed two free throws with 16 seconds to play. Davis, who made a turnover earlier, bricked another free throw with 6.2 seconds left, allow- ing Deron Williams to tie it with a short jumper before Utah’s overtime romp. By keeping their cool when the Warriors lost it, the Jazz are in position Friday to all but clinch their first trip to the Western Conference finals since 1998. “We know the series is not even close to being over,” Williams said after the Jazz practiced in Utah on Thursday. “We’ve got some tough games in Oakland, and hopefully we can still win. It would do a lot for our confi- dence, winning one on the road.” The Jazz are a nightmare matchup for the Warriors, both inside and out. Utah has two proven low-post scorers (Carlos Boozer and Mehmet Okur) versatile enough to play on the perimeter, while Williams is gaining national attention for his strong play against Davis. Nelson called Williams “a young Baron Davis” on Thursday, with “the same kind THE UKIAH DAILY JOURNAL COMMUNITY FRIDAY, MAY 11, 2007 – A-9

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.
