S&P worried about possible Calif budget gimmicks Tuesday warned that California could return to budget gimmicks this summer, in part because a court has removed an incentive for lawmakers to pass a spending plan that is truly balanced. The Standard & Poor's memo cautioned that the SACRAMENTO (AP) — A credit rating agency on agency could revise its positive outlook on California's debt if the Legislature fails to pass a balanced budget by its June 15 deadline. S&P cited concerns stemming from two developments last month. First, the deficit has grown as income tax revenue in April fell nearly $2 billion below expectations. Then a Sacramento judge ruled the state controller doesn't have authority to withhold pay from lawmakers. That ruling undermines Proposition 25, a 2010 initia- silent auction with pro- ceeds going to benefit local girls' basketball teams, she said.

California has an A- credit rating, the lowest of any state. It received a positive outlook after the state made progress in making deep spending cuts last year. H.D. Palmer, the governor's finance spokesman, said the state budget gap will be larger than the $9.2 billion estimated in January. But he said the state will be looking at a variety of economic indicators to determine a new revenue forecast, such as housing permits and unemploy- ment, as well as the anticipated public offering for Face- book. ''We're going to have a plan to put forward in the next several weeks,'' he said of the governor's upcoming bud- get revision. The nonpartisan Legislative Analyst's Office estimat- ed that state revenues are about $3 billion below projec- tions so far in the current year, which ends June 30. Gov. Jerry Brown has proposed a $92.6 billion budget for the new fiscal year. Brown also has proposed an ini- tiative for the November ballot that would fund education and public safety programs by raising income taxes on people who make more than $250,000 a year and increas- ing the sales tax by a quarter cent. Democratic leaders have vowed to pass a responsible budget but are relying on the tax increase. Republicans oppose the tax hike. ''The fact remains that we still need a two-thirds vote to generate revenue,'' said Robin Swanson, a spokes- woman for the Assembly speaker's office. ''This only underscores the importance of passing the governor's ini- tiative.'' OPEN Continued from page 1A lies.

Working as we do in and out of ice boxes we have to be very careful to forestall colds.* The last few times I have requested a shot, I have been told that nurses cannot give these shots anymore unless a doctor is present. This irked me because I have taken it ever since it was discovered and had no trouble with it whatsoever. But I won't complain anymore. Dick O'Bryan, one of our employees was in the hospital two weeks ago and something happened. He had many shots of penicillin before and several since entering the hospital. This time, Jack Wing and he were in a ward, and as Jack was leaving, the nurse gave Dick another shot. Nothing happened for a few moments and then he became nauseated, went to the bathroom but was unable to vomit. Getting back into bed, his feet began to itch but scratching them did no good as the itch was deep inside his feet. His heart began to beat so hard he could not get his breath. Although he knew he was about to lose consciences, he knew he must press the bell cord to summon help quickly. But when he grabbed the cord he lost all power of coordination and the cord slipped through his hands to the floor. Time had nearly run out for him as he lost consciousness. Just then, one of the nurses happened into the room. With the aid of an oxygen mask and two shots of adrenalin into his heart, his life was saved. *** One result of Governor Brown's pardoning Chessman is that the papers are not as full of Governor Brown discussing whether or not he will accept the nomination for President if it is forced on him. *** There has been quite a little publicity lately about the County Supervisors losing a lot of money by not accepting the 25% of County sales tax when they could have done so. They wanted to do so and even Supervisor Armstrong moved that the County accept it and Supervisor Dale said, "I don't think we will be offered any greater percentage than that", but the move was lost when two very influential members of a Farm organization in the county wanted them to hold out for a greater percent of the tax. I feel the Supervisors get blamed plenty without taking the blame for this. *** You got to be around half a century old if the following words mean anything to you: fireless cooker, tourist homes and groceteria. The latter was the forerunner of the present self service Super markets. * Father was right about most things in his life but believing penicillin would ward off a cold and that working in and out of ice boxes could make one susceptible to colds were two ideas that later became discredited.

Red Bluff, CA., 96080 or to the American Cancer Society. And with the $1.5 million alloca- tion to the Lassen Forest by the Department of Agriculture, more of that land should be obtained. Lassen Forest public services staff officer Chris O'Brien indicated the Lower Deer Creek Falls parcel had been the top priority for that money, but that there was a list of sev- eral parcels the money could be used for. With the falls property preserved, he indicated the forest would shift the funds to purchasing other critical parcels along Mill Creek. It's another stream in which spring-run chinook salmon spawn. "Protecting the creeks for the peo- ple is the point of this," O'Brien said. "It doesn't matter if the Land Trust or the Forest Service holds the title." The grant to the Lassen Forest was part of $40.6 million distributed nationwide earlier this month from the Land and Water Conservation Fund, a repository of royalty payments from offshore oil and gas drilling. California received about $8 mil- lion, which will also fund land pur- chases in the Six Rivers, Shasta-Trin- ity, Tahoe, Eldorado and San Bernardino national forests. Wednesday, May 2, 2012 – Daily News 7A charges can be filed against Mr. Rodriguez." In a situation involving a DUI driver who causes the death of another, the law typically allows for a manslaughter charge and not a murder charge, Cohen said. The idea behind the law is that the DUI driver did not set out to, or intend to, kill anyone. However, in certain situ- ations, the law in Califor- nia does allow for a murder charge to be filed when the DUI driver acted with a "reckless indifference to human life," he said. Where a DUI driver causes death, it must be shown that the driver knew of the risk that driving under the influence may cause death, appreciated that risk and consciously disregarded that risk by driving after he knew that he was drinking and that his actions could result in death or injury to another. The male and female who were with Rodriguez on that Saturday may have told him that he was too drunk to drive and that his continued driving might result in him killing him- self or someone else, Cohen said. Police investigation, before hitting Pridemore, Rodriguez and two others drove to the River Park, stopped, parked near the bathrooms close to the pool and then all got out of the pickup and argued. Rodriguez got back in his truck without the two other people and drove away, hitting a parked car. "Based on the way the Based on the Red Bluff law works, the two people who arrived at the River Park with Mr. Rodriguez may hold the key to the question of whether Mr. Rodriguez's conduct should be charged as mur- der or manslaughter," Cohen said. "It's the innocent death of Ms. Pridemore that continues to haunt me. The detec- tives and I just want a chance to talk to these witnesses. We all, the detectives and Ms. Pride- more's family and friends, just want to know the truth." Anyone with informa- tion about the case and specifically the names of the two people who were with Rodriguez at River Park is asked to call Det. Brett McAllister or Lt. Dan Flowerdew at 527-8282.
