The Orangevale man killed Wednesday night in a head-on collision with a wrong-way driver on Highway 50 has been identified as Bruce Michael Bone, 41, according to the El Dorado County Sheriff's Department. An El Dorado County sheriff's deputy saw Ghersanich's Toyota SUV traveling east in the westbound lanes, but was unable to prevent the head-on crash, according to CHP spokesman Dan Stark.

The California Highway Patrol said that Theresa Ghersanich, 55, of Placerville, was driving her sport-utility vehicle eastbound in the westbound lanes when she collided with a Honda Acord driven by Bone.

Bone died at the scene of the 11 p.m. collision on westbound Highway 50 west of Red Hawk Parkway. Ghersanich suffered major injuries and was taken by helicopter to a hospital. She was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol, the CHP said.

Karen Hudson, a close friend of Ghersanich, expressed shock.

"She's never even had a misdemeanor. She's a very sweet person and her taking someone else's life will devastate her for the rest of her life," Hudson said.

Hudson added Ghersanich and her husband were not big drinkers. She said Ghersanich was a real estate agent with Cook Realty but had recently been cleaning houses to make ends meet.

The woman shot to death Sunday by Placerville police after she stole an ambulance was a mental patient under care at Marshall Hospital, officials confirmed Tuesday.

Authorities identified the woman as Linda Carol Clark, 39, of Folsom.

On 3/21/10 at 2:45 pm, the El Dorado County Sheriff's Office received multiple 911 calls reporting suspicious shots being fired in the area of Newtown Road and Broadway, as well as a report of a vehicle accident involving a burgundy Toyota truck and a green Toyota SUV. El Dorado County Sheriff's Units, Placerville Police Units and CHP units responded as well as multiple El Dorado County Fire Units.

An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had never failed a single student before, but had once failed an entire class. That class had insisted that Obama's socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer.

The professor then said, "OK, we will have an experiment in this class on Obama's plan". All grades would be averaged and everyone would receive the same grade so no one would fail and no one would receive an A...

After the first test, the grades were averaged and everyone got a B. The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy. As the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too so they studied little.
