The San Carlos Elementary
School District may have a new
ofce for the superintendent and
other administrative staff after put-
ting in a bid on a new building.
This week, the district announced
it had put a bid on 1200 Industrial
Road which, if accepted, would
allow for a move off the Central
Middle School campus. The district,
which has been heavily affected by
growing enrollment, included a new
home for the district ofce as part of
the Facilities Master Plan adopted
by the board last month.
Superintendent Craig Baker said
the move will benet the district in
multiple ways. Currently, district
staff is spread out at multiple sites.
The move will allow all administra-
tive employees to be in one spot,
which also gives school sites back
the space which district staff were
using. In the new spot, the district
also hopes to create a larger location
for community meetings.
Much of the Facilities Master
Plan will be funded by Measure H
a $72 million bond measure
passed by voters in November.
Under the plan, a new district ofce
was projected to be a $3.5 million
expenditure. Baker estimated the
new site will instead cost under $2
million with the added perks of
being move-in ready with furniture
and IT equipment.
The space at 1200 Industrial Road
is about 9,200 square feet. Details of
the transaction will be nalized in the
coming months. The district hopes to
be moved in by this summer.

Many live a fast-paced, on-the-go
lifestyle and the accessibility of a
quick meal is often necessary, but
state Sen. Mark Leno believes that
should not outweigh fast food pack-
agings impact on the environment
and the
California coast.
Leno, D-San
F r a n c i s c o ,
authored legisla-
tion that would
prohibit fast food
chains with 20 or
more locations
from providing
disposable pack-
aging or single-
use carryout bags that are not recy-
clable or compostable by July 1,
2014. The legislation, Senate Bill
529, has drawn opposition, however,
from restaurant ofcials who say it
would create a burden on the indus-
try that often operates with low
prot margins.
Because the bill requires old
packaging materials to cease being
used, part of the associated costs
will fall on the restaurants, said
Angelica Pappas, spokeswoman for
the California Restaurant
Association. Members of the associ-
ation include McDonalds, Taco
Bell, KFC and Pizza Hut.
Although it may only be a differ-
ence of pennies per packaging unit,
it can quickly add up, Pappas said.
Even if a restaurant implements

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
San Mateo is ready to become
the latest Peninsula city to ban
single-use bags and disposable
food storage containers made of
polystyrene, commonly known
as Styrofoam, by emulating
county-established templates.
While other cities tended to
take one proposed ban before
the other usually the poly-
styrene prohibition followed
later by the bags the San
Mateo City Council will consid-
er both at Monday nights meet-
ing. The twin ordinances follow
study sessions in January for
plastic bags and March for poly-
styrene. The vote comes a week
before Earth Day, when bans in
several other cities will see their
respective bag restrictions kick
in. Redwood Citys bag ban
starts Oct. 1.
The proposed ordinance
allows patrons without reusable
bags to request a single-use
paper version from retailers for
the price of rst a dime and,
after Dec. 31, 2014, a quarter.

Four-year-old Janelle Jimenez
maneuvered through a crowd of pro-
fessionals, elected officials and
press Friday morning to sit on a
foldable red chair set up at the
Magnolia Head Start Preschool in
East Palo Alto.
Dental hygienist Ushma Patel
helped Jimenez put on a small nap-
kin-like bib around the preschool-
ers neck. Nearby, Leslie Estrada
prepared the computer. Within min-
utes, the women were taking pic-
tures of the little girls teeth. Photos
were uploaded into a computer,
which could be remotely accessed
by a dentist in real time or later that
day. The demonstration held Friday
morning showcased the new Virtual
Dentist Home program being pilot-
ed locally through funding from
First 5 San Mateo County. Using
current technology, health care pro-
fessionals can set up temporary
shop at schools, residential commu-
nities or wherever they can get wire-
less.
This new delivery model pro-
vides a much-needed community-
based virtual dental home for our
states most vulnerable people, who
will access dental services in their
own communities as well as remove
some of the barriers to receiving
care in a traditional dental ofce,
said Dr. Paul Glassman, project
director and professor of dental
practice at the University of the
Pacics Arthur A. Dugoni School
of Dentistry.
More than 50 percent of children
entering kindergarten have experi-
enced tooth decay and about 25 per-
cent on Medi-Cal get preventative
dental care, said Dr. Yogita Thakur,

San Francisco cable car
accidents costs millions
SAN FRANCISCO In this city of
innumerable tourist attractions, the
clanging, hill-conquering cable cars
stand out as a top draw.
The quaint conveyances also stand out
for the inordinate number of accidents
and the millions of dollars annually the
city pays out to settle lawsuits for bro-
ken bones, severed feet and bad bruises
caused when 19th-century technology
runs headlong into 21st-century city
trafc and congestion.
Cable cars average about an accident a
month and routinely rank among the
most accident-prone mass transportation
modes in the country per vehicle mile
traveled annually, according to the U.S.
Department of Transportation. Over the
last 10 years, city ofcials have reported
126 accidents injuring 151 people.
After the latest serious accident
when seven people were injured after a
cable car slammed to an unexpected stop
after hitting a small bolt in the track
The Associated Press obtained through a
public records request a listing of cable
car-related legal settlements over the last
three years.
Those gures show the city paying
nearly $8 million to settle about four
dozen legal claims.
The city has paid on average $12 mil-
lion annually to settle all claims con-
nected to its mass transportation system
that in addition to cable cars consists of
electric street cars and buses, which
travel many more miles and carry many
more passengers.
City ofcials acknowledge that the
open air cable cars, which ply only eight
miles of track, produce a disproportion-
ate amount of accident-related costs.
But they say the cars are a much
beloved and valuable part of the citys
life and character.
Their images are inscribed on the San
Francisco Giants World Series rings.
The cars have been immortalized in song
and in television ads selling rice. And
tourists line up dozens deep even in
freezing weather for a chance to ride
over the citys Nob and Russian hills.
The iconic cable cars of San
Francisco are a National Historic
Landmark and we work every day to
make them safer, San Francisco Mayor
Ed Lee said, adding, While accidents
and injuries are down from just a few
years ago, we are always working to
improve the system as a whole.
Federal transportation gures show 19
injuries and 16 accidents last year, the
second highest amount reported in the
last 10 years. There were 36 accidents
reported in 2004.
Two months ago, ve passengers and
two workers were injured after the bolt
caused their cable car to slam to a sud-
den stop, tossing them violently inside
the vehicle. The conductor had facial
and tongue injuries and the driver suf-
fered internal injuries and cracked ribs,
transit ofcials said.
Legal claims are expected, as they
always are after a cable car accident.
The city has been settling lawsuits
almost since the cable cars began opera-
tion in 1893. One woman won a 1970
jury verdict of $50,000 after she claimed
that a minor accident on a cable car she
was riding turned her into a nymphoma-
niac.
The 19th Century technology of the
cable cars does pose some challenges,
said Paul Rose, a spokesman for the city
agency that oversees San Francisco mass
transit. While one accident is too many
and were always working to improve
safety, these incidents are rare.
San Francisco remains the only place
on the planet with a true, manually oper-
ated cable-car system serving the public.
Cable cars average about an accident a
month and routinely rank among the
most accident-prone mass transporta-
tion modes in the country.
T
wenty-four year old Eugene Ely sat in
his ying machine as he calculated
the wind and observed the weather.
The weather had been bad, but the rain had
stopped and the wind had let up a little. The
ship is running on a ood-tide, someone said.
Ely, a farm boy from Iowa, had been crazy
about all mechanical things, especially auto-
mobiles. After moving to California, he estab-
lished himself as one of the best mechanics
and car drivers on the West Coast. He loved
the speed and the challenge of racing. While
in Oregon, his wife Mable, whose sister lived
in San Bruno, had told Eugene of a Curtiss
aircraft on display in Portland. It was a 1,000-
pound pusher aircraft that aviator and
inventor Glenn Curtiss had put on display, but
it was not for sale. Ely talked the salesman
into selling it, however, and he immediately
taught himself the fundamentals of ight, put
the plane into shape to y and took off into the
air. Before long he was barnstorming
throughout the northwest, making as much as
$1,000 per performance. A lot of money at the
time.
Ely met Glenn Curtiss in Minnesota one
day, and Curtiss signed him on with the
Curtiss Air Shows. While in Virginia to see an
air show, Ely met Naval Captain Washington
Irving Chambers who was in charge of avia-
tion matters for the Navy. Ely convinced
Chambers that taking off from a ship was
entirely possible and Ely accomplished this
feat from the USS Birmingham in November
1910.
Ely felt that landing on a ship was also pos-
sible and, while in San Francisco in January
1911, he convinced the Navy to let him
attempt this feat on the armored cruiser USS
Pennsylvania. The ship was outtted with a
120-by-32-foot wooden landing platform at
Mare Island. Strips of rope were strung across
the platform and tied to canvas bags full of
sand that were to stop the aircraft by means of
a metal hook anchored to the bottom of the
plane. A canvas tarp was strung up at the end
of the platform in case the plane overshot the
landing area. Elys plane was modied so the
wings were longer, and a pair of metal tanks
were secured underneath to oat the plane in
case the pilot ended up in the Bay.
After the rain stopped, Ely felt it was now or
never for the ight. He had prepared himself
for this moment and he was now ready. The
plane was ready. He took off into the wind
from the Tanforan race track center eld. He
headed north to the Hunters Point area and
turned right. He was now over the Bay and
again headed north to rendezvous with the
USS Pennsylvania.
All of a sudden he ew into an area of fog
and he lost his bearings. The ship was not in
view as he continued north. Suddenly the air
was clear again, and he sighted the ship with
her nose pointed toward the Golden Gate. The
captain of the ship, Captain Pond, and Ely had
Eugene Elys ight into the history books

Pair of gardeners arrested after
woman nds them in her home
Two men were arrested after a woman
arrived home in an unincorporated area of
Menlo Park to nd them inside her home
stealing laptop computers, according to
San Mateo County Sheriffs ofcials.
The woman encountered the two bur-
glars inside her home in the 600 block of
Placitas Avenue around 2:20 p.m.
Thursday, sheriffs ofcials said.
When confronted, the two suspects
dropped the laptops they were in the
process of stealing and ran out of a side
door, eeing in a blue pickup truck with
the number of a gardening service on it.
San Mateo County Sheriffs detectives
and Sunnyvale Department of Public
Safety personnel were able to locate the
suspects in the 1000 block of
Blazingwood Drive in Sunnyvale.
The suspects were identied as East
Palo Alto resident Ruben Salas, 24, and
21-year-old Victor Oseguerra-Rojas of
Sunnyvale, according to the sheriffs
ofce.
Both were arrested on suspicion of
burglary and booked into county jail in
Redwood City.
A follow-up investigation revealed
that the suspects had been working on a
gardening job at another home in the 600
block of Placitas Avenue, which gave
them access to the victims home
through an unlocked door.
Anyone with information about simi-
lar-sounding burglaries in the area is
asked to call the San Mateo County
Sheriffs Ofce Anonymous Tip Line at
(800) 547-2700.
Man, 75, missing

Robert Archambault, who is conned
to a manual wheelchair, was last seen
Saturday at Burlingame Long Term Care
at about 2:30 p.m., according to
Burlingame police. The facility is locat-
ed at 1100 Trousdale Drive.
Archambault has extensive medical
issues, including a missing right eye,
diabetes, kidney disease and circulatory
problems, police said.
His disappearance was not considered
suspicious. Archambault has gray hair,
blue eyes and weighs about 150 pounds.
Anyone who might have seen the
missing man is asked to call 911 or the

String of burglaries reported
using garage, side doors
Burglars have entered several homes
in Half Moon Bay through unlocked
garage doors or side doors, and the San
Mateo County Sheriffs Ofce is warn-
ing residents to be alert.
Burglaries have occurred on the 1000
block of Third Avenue, on the 400 block
of Grand Boulevard and on the 300
block of Valdez Avenue, according to
Sgt. Jim Gilletti. The burglaries have
mostly occurred during daylight hours.
Gilletti noted that in other jurisdic-
tions, thieves have often walked door to
door, knocked on doors and then enter
through a side or garage door once they
have determined no one is home. If
someone answers the door, they will
make up a phony reason for knocking.
Residents who see something suspi-
cious should call sheriffs dispatch at
(650) 363-4911.

Purse stolen from home
after woman distracted
by fake utility worker
A womans purse and money
were stolen from her home
Thursday after a man pretending to
be a utility worker drew her outside
to discuss overheard wiring con-
nected to her house, South San
Francisco police said Saturday.
The woman, a nurse in a senior
care home, was in her home on the
400 block of Acacia Avenue around
3:30 p.m. on Thursday when what
appeared to be a uniformed utility
worker rang the doorbell, according
to police.
The man asked if he could speak
with the resident about her overhead
wiring, and the woman followed
him to the side yard, where they
spoke for around 5 or 10 minutes.
During that time, the door of the
house was left wide open, police
said.
When the resident walked back
into the house, she noticed her purse
had been moved and $800 was miss-
ing from it. It was unclear if any-
thing else was missing from the
house, police said.
Police now suspect the utility
worker was providing a distraction
while an accomplice entered the
house. He was described as a white
male adult, approximately 50 years
old with black hair. He was wearing
a black baseball hat, a dark blue uni-
form and brown shoes, with a lan-
yard around his neck holding some
sort of identication badge, police
said.

Carlmont students sent to the principals
ofce may soon hear electric guitar notes
playing as they approach the door.
Perhaps a little Seven Nation Army from
the White Stripes or a
small riff from the
Alabama Shakes. Lisa
Gleaton, who will take the
helm as principal of the
Belmont high school later
this month, bought herself
a choice electric guitar as
a 50th birthday gift this
year. Shes got plans to
master it slowly in the
next 10 to 12 years. The
long-term goal is simple: once retired,
Gleaton can start her second career on tour.
It might be in my moms and dads
garages, Gleaton said with a smile.
The hand talker with a tight haircut, a love
for red lipstick and a big laugh will soon be
switching from the vice principal gig at
Sequoia High School to the principal position
at Carlmont. It took Gleaton years to be will-
ing to leave the classroom her rst love in
education. But now shes ready to steer the
ship, she said. And those around her couldnt
be more supportive of the move.
Carlmont is fortunate to getting Lisa at its
helm, said Sequoia Principal Bonnie Hansen.
She is hard-working, intelligent, good with
people and will care about the well-being and
academic growth of every kid on Carlmonts
campus.
Gleaton, who joined the Sequoia Union
High School District as a teacher in 1994, did-
nt plan on working in education as a child. A
self-described Air Force brat, Gleaton was
born in Japan and moved a lot during her
youth Quebec, New Jersey, England and
Travis Air Force Base near Faireld. Looking
back, Gleaton speaks fondly of life at schools
on different bases, where many cliques were
not as present and the color of a persons skin
wasnt an issue. That was a rude awakening
for Gleaton, who went to a traditional public
school for high school. She chose the route of
being herself.
When it came time to apply to college,
Gleaton had already planned out her future.
She was going to be a foreign service ofcer
a job a teacher had mentioned would be a
good t. Its also the reason shes careful
about what she says to students. She wants to
support students to see the big options and
really understand all opportunities.
Its my mission that every kid I ever meet
is going to know everything I know, she said,
adding then shes going to tell them to ask
someone else what they know.
Gleaton, a National Merit Semi-Finalist,
ended up studying international relations at
Mills College, a womens only school in
Oakland. It was after college, while serving in
the Peace Corps in Togo as a teacher, that
Gleaton was introduced to education. She did-
nt go straight into that world once back in the
states. She worked on the corporate side in a
position that allowed her to travel and explore
until massive layoffs in 1990. Then Gleaton
reevaluated life. She enjoyed teaching while
in Africa and gave it a try locally.
After subbing for a handful of Peninsula
school districts, Gleaton gured out that ele-
mentary school students werent her cup of
tea. But she enjoyed middle school and
after earning multiple credentials at Notre
Dame de Namur University took a position
in the Ravenswood City Elementary School
District. Gleaton describes her time at the
East Palo Alto middle school as bliss. It was
at the encouragement of Morgan Marchbanks,
who was at the time a teacher at Sequoia, that
Gleaton decided to make the switch.
Shes remarkable, Marchbanks, Sequoia
assistant superintendent of educational servic-
es, said of Gleaton. She has a really high
degree of integrity and wants to make a sub-
stantial difference.
All three of Marchbanks children had
Gleaton as a teacher and loved her.
Marchbanks joked that you cant get three
siblings to agree on anything.
Gleaton taught at both Sequoia and
Carlmont. At the encouragement of others,
she toyed with the idea of joining the admin-
istrative team and took on the role a couple
times before accepting her current job as vice
principal of instruction at Sequoia.
Now Gleaton is preparing to rejoin the team
at Carlmont on April 29. Lucky for her, much
of the staff are people she knows from either
working at the Belmont school or through
other educational connections.
Superintendent Jim Lianides wrote, Lisa
will bring a wealth of experience, vision, and
leadership to her new role as principal and
help guide Carlmont High School forward as
it continues to promote and further develop a
climate of academic excellence. Lisa has
strong communication and listening skills and
is highly regarded as an educator at both
Sequoia and Carlmont. Lisa is seen as a
strong instructional leader in both her roles as
a teacher and as an administrator. She is a
champion for equity and excellence for all
students.
For Gleaton, the new job is just one of the
challenges shes planning to take on. At the
moment, her ofce dons a single photo a
beautiful shot by her husband Tony Gleaton.
It showcases the inspiration for a historical
tale Gleaton hopes to write in a book. And,
she eagerly awaits her 19-year-old son Marks
return from studying abroad.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO In use for
the rst time last year, Californias
online voter registration system
proved so popular that lawmakers
want to build on its success this
year.
Wider promotion of the system
and a push toward online voting are
among several election-related bills
under consideration as the
Legislature approaches a midyear
bill deadline. Other changes under
consideration would shine more
light on campaign nancing and
update how elections are run.
About 800,000 Californians used
the online registration system to join
the states voter rolls, according to
state Sen. Leland Yee, D-San
Francisco, who authored the origi-
nal bill. An analysis of turnout g-
ures by Political Data Inc. indicated
that those who registered online
were signicantly more likely than
other voters to cast a ballot last
November.
This year, Yees SB44 is propos-
ing that all state websites link to the
secretary of states voter registration
page in an effort to publicize the
system.
Others want the state to move
even further online and are pushing
for a pilot program to test the cast-
ing of ballots over the Internet.
Assemblyman Phil Ting, D-San
Francisco, has put forward AB19 to
review the security of online voting
software and eventually create a
pilot program for counties.
Its odd that California, being the
heart of the technology frontier, has-
nt yet embraced it, Ting said,
pointing to the wide use of online
voter registration as a signal that
many would be interested in

WASHINGTON Worried the
Internal Revenue Service might tar-
get you for an audit? You probably
should be if you own a small busi-
ness in one of the wealthy suburbs
of Los Angeles.
You might also be wary if youre
a small-business owner in one of
dozens of communities near San
Francisco, Houston, Atlanta or the
District of Columbia.
A new study by the National
Taxpayer Advocate used conden-
tial IRS data to show large clusters
of potential tax cheats in these ve
metropolitan areas. The IRS uses
the information to target taxpayers
for audits.
The taxpayer advocate, Nina
Olsen, runs an independent ofce
within the IRS. She got access to the
data as part of an effort to learn more
about why some taxpayers are more
likely to cheat than others.
The study also looked at tax com-
pliance in different industries, and
found that people who own construc-
tion companies or real estate rental
rms may be more likely to fudge
their taxes than business owners in
other elds.
Many of the communities identi-
ed by the study are very wealthy,
including Beverly Hills and Newport
Beach in California. Others are more
middle class, such as New Carrollton,
Md., a Washington suburb, and
College Park, Ga., home to a section
of Atlantas massive airport.
Steve Rosansky, president and
CEO of the Newport Beach Chamber
of Commerce, said business owners
in his city are probably targeted
because many have high incomes.
The likelihood of an audit does
increase with income, according to
IRS data.
I imagine its just a matter of them
going where they think the moneys
at, Rosansky said in an interview. I
guess if I was running the IRS Id
probably do the same thing.
The study focused on small-busi-
ness owners sole proprietorships,
to be specic because they have
more opportunity than the typical
individual to cheat on their taxes.
Many small businesses deal in cash
while most individuals get paid in
wages that are reported to the IRS.
The IRS only audits about 1 per-
cent of tax returns each year, so the
agency tries to pick returns that are
most likely to yield additional tax
money.
The IRS will not say much about
how agents choose their targets. But
as millions of procrastinators scram-
ble to meet Mondays deadline to le
their taxes, the agency is running
every tax return through a conden-
tial computer program to determine
the chances of collecting more
money from an audit.
Each tax return is assigned a score.
The higher your score, the more like-
ly you are to get audited because,
according to the IRS, the more likely
you are cheating on your taxes.
The score is called the
Discriminant Inventory Function, or
DIF. A high DIF score does not guar-
antee you are a tax cheat but the IRS
claims its reliable.
If your return is selected because
of a high score under the DIF sys-
tem, the potential is high that an
examination of your return will
result in a change to your income tax
liability, says an IRS publication
that explains the auditing process.
How do you get high score? The
IRS wont say, but veteran tax pre-
parers and former IRS workers
believe they have a pretty good idea.
If youre reporting $8,000 of
charitable contributions when youre
only making $50,000, thats a red
ag, said Bob Meighan, vice presi-
dent of TurboTax, an online tax
preparation service. Likewise if
youre reporting business or employ-
ee expenses that are out of the ordi-
nary for your income range, that
would attract the interest of the IRS
as well.

NEW ORLEANS A political brawl has
broken out between the mayor and a sheriff
who runs the city jail, which has come under
scrutiny for a video showing inmates using
drugs, drinking beer and handling a gun.
Mayor Mitch Landrieu asked a judge last
Tuesday to take the extraordinary step of plac-
ing the jail under federal oversight, effective-
ly wresting control of it away from Orleans
Parish Sheriff Marlin Gusman. Landrieu is
upset over an agreement Gusman reached
with the U.S. Justice Department to reform
the jail, saying the city, which funds the jail,
cant afford the potential expense.
Stated simply, the person at the top is nei-
ther accountable, nor capable of exercising
leadership skills, the city said in court docu-
ments that cited the video and the recent
guilty pleas of two jail ofcials in a bid-rig-
ging bribery case.
Landrieu is trying to reform the much-
maligned police department and reached a
widely heralded agreement with the Justice
Department last year to clean up the agency.
Now hes trying to back out of it in light of
Gusmans separate agreement. Landrieu said
the city was making changes but cant afford
all the requirements outlined in the jail and
the police agreements.
Gusman believes the city has consistently
underfunded the jail and suggested race may
be behind the attacks. The African-American
sheriff recently told reporters that Landrieu,
who is white, was employing Archie Bunker
rhetoric.
They have to be looking at something dif-
ferent than just the record, Gusman told The
New Orleans Tribune. And maybe theyre
looking at the person whos there. Maybe
theyre looking at they dont like the way
that person looks.
Landrieu, a Democrat who carried a major-
ity of the black vote in his 2010 election, has
not directly responded to the remarks on race.
While the problems at the police depart-
ment have been widely known, less publicized
have been unsanitary, violent and dangerous
jail conditions that have long been the subject
of lawsuits and court orders.

WASHINGTON A bipartisan Senate
proposal to expand background checks for
gun buyers gained the backing of one
Republican and the potential support of a sec-
ond Sunday as sponsors said the vote expect-
ed this week was too close to call.
The plan would strengthen the background
check system without in any way infringing
on Second Amendment rights, Maine Sen.
Susan Collins said in a statement explaining
her support for the measure. But she added
that it is impossible to predict at this point
what will be in a nal bill.
Arizona Sen. John McCain, who has a B+
rating from the National Rie Association,
said he was very favorably disposed to the
proposal that has emerged from Sens. Patrick
Toomey, R-Pa., and Joe Manchin, D-W.Va.
I appreciate their work, McCain said.
And the American people want to do what
we can to prevent these tragedies. And theres
a lot more that needs to be done, particularly
in the area of mental health.

Collins and Sen. Mark Kirk of Illinois are

It will take 60 votes to pass, meaning that
more Republicans will have to come on board

TOKYO The United States
and Japan opened the door Sunday
to new nuclear talks with North
Korea if the saber-rattling country
lowered tensions and honored past
agreements, even as it rejected
South Koreas latest offer of dia-
logue as a crafty trick.
U.S. Secretary of State John
Kerry told reporters in Tokyo that
North Korea would find ready
partners in the United States if it
began abandoning its nuclear pro-
gram.
Japans foreign minister, Fumio
Kishida, also demanded a resolu-
tion to a dispute
c o n c e r n i n g
Japanese citi-
zens abducted
decades ago by
North Korean
officials.
The diplo-
mats seemed to
point the way
for a possible
revival of the six-nation talks that
have been suspended for four
years.
China long pushed has for the
process to resume without condi-
tions. But the U.S. and allies South
Korea and Japan fear rewarding
North Korea for its belligerence
and endless repetition of a cycle of
tensions and failed talks that have
prolonged the crisis.
Kerrys message of openness to
diplomacy was clear, however
unlikely the chances appeared that
North Korean leader Kim Jong
Uns government would meet the
Americans conditions.
Im not going to be so stuck in
the mud that an opportunity to
actually get something done is fla-
grantly wasted because of a kind of
predetermined stubbornness, he
told U.S.-based journalists.
You have to keep your mind
open. But fundamentally, the con-
cept is theyre going to have to
show some kind of good faith here
so were not going to around and
around in the same-old, same-old,
he said.
Tensions have run high on the
Korean Peninsula for months, with
North Korea testing a nuclear
device and its intercontinental bal-
listic missile technology.
The reclusive communist state
hasnt stopped there. It has issued
almost daily threats that have
included possible nuclear strikes
against the United States. Analysts
and foreign officials say that is still
beyond the North Koreans capa-
bility.
While many threats have been
dismissed as bluster, U.S. and
South Korean say they believe the
North in the coming days may test
a mid-range missile designed to
reach as far as Guam, the U.S. ter-
ritory in the Pacific where the
Pentagon is deploying a land-based
missile-defense system.
Japan is the last stop on a 10-day
trip overseas for Kerry, who visited
Seoul and Beijing as well in recent
days.
In South Korea, he strongly
warned North Korea not to launch
a missile and he reaffirmed U.S.
defense of its allies in the region.
In China, he secured a public
pledge from Beijing, the lone gov-
ernment with significant influence
over North Korea, to rid the North
of nuclear weapons.
As Kerry talks diplomacy, NKorea takes hard line
MOGADISHU, Somalia A barrage of
bullets and two car bomb blasts rattled
Mogadishu on Sunday when nine al-Shabab
Islamic extremists stormed Somalias main
court complex, ofcials said, in a two-hour
attack that shows the countrys most danger-
ous militant group may be down but not
defeated.
A preliminary death toll stood at 16, includ-
ing all nine attackers. The government didnt
immediately publicize the number of security
forces, government employees and civilians
who died during the attack.
The assault was the most serious in
Mogadishu since al-Shabab was forced out of
the capital in August 2011. Al-Shabab controls
far less territory today than in recent years,
and its inuence appears to be on the decline,
but Sundays attack proved the extremists are
still capable of pulling off well-planned, auda-
cious assaults.
The top U.N. ofcial for Somalia, Augustine
P. Mahiga, said he was shocked and outraged
by the attack. Mahiga said the total number of
dead wasnt clear, but that reports indicated
that many innocent civilians were killed
including women and at least one child.
The attack on the Supreme Court complex
began at around 12:30 p.m., sparking running
battles with police and army forces. One car
bomb detonated outside the court, and gun-
men were seen on the roof of a court building
ring shots, an Associated Press reporter at the
scene said. Police ofcer Hassan Abdulahi
said he saw ve dead bodies lying at the
entrance to the court.
The militants took an unknown number of
hostages during the siege. Many other govern-
ment workers and civilians in the court com-
plex a confusing labyrinth of buildings and
rooms hid while fearing for their lives.
Western ofcials knew militants had been
planning a major violent incident. The British
Foreign Ofce on Friday released a travel
warning for Somalia that warned of a high
threat of terrorism.

CARACAS, Venezuela Voters chose
Sunday between the hand-picked successor
who campaigned to carry on Hugo Chavezs
self-styled socialist revolution and an embold-
ened second-time challenger who warned that
the late presidents regime has Venezuela on
the road to ruin.
Nicolas Maduro, the longtime foreign min-
ister to Chavez, pinned his hopes on the
immense loyalty for his boss among millions
of poor beneciaries of government largesse
and the powerful state apparatus that Chavez
skillfully consolidated.
Maduros campaign was mostly a near-reli-
gious homage to the man he called the
redeemer of the Americas, who succumbed to
cancer March 5. He blamed Venezuelas myr-
iad woes on vague plots by alleged saboteurs
that the government never identied.
Challenger Henrique Capriles main cam-
paign weapon was to simply emphasize the
incompetence of the state, as he put it to
reporters Saturday night.
Maduro, 50, was favored to win, but his
early big lead in opinion polls was cut in half
over the past two weeks in a country strug-
gling with the legacy of Chavezs manage-
ment of the worlds largest oil reserves.
Millions of Venezuelans were lifted out of
poverty under Chavez, but many also believe
his government not only squandered, but plun-
dered, much of the $1 trillion in oil revenues
during his tenure.
Venezuelans are aficted by chronic power
outages, crumbling infrastructure, unnished
public works projects, double-digit ination,
food and medicine shortages, and rampant
crime.
Venezuela has one of the worlds highest
homicide and kidnapping rates.

LONDON One of Britains leading aca-
demic institutions, the London School of
Economics, is accusing the BBC of putting
students at risk by using them as cover for a
covert reporting trip to North Korea.
The school says BBCs decision to send
three TV journalists to the secretive commu-
nist state in March to shoot a documentary
without governmental permission to work
there by posing as members of a student trip
could have caused grave trouble for the pupils,
if the deception had been uncovered by North
Korean authorities.
The squabble between two powerful British
institutions comes at a time of uncertainty
caused by North Koreas bellicose threats to
launch a new medium-range missile at its ene-
mies.
It brought more unwelcome attention to
the BBC, which has faced sustained criti-
cism for its handling of an investigation into
alleged child sex abuse committed by the
late Jimmy Savile, long a top BBC talk show
host.

Issues with gun control
Editor,
Letter writer Jorg Aadahls rant
against the pro-Second Amendment
stance proves that hes the real low
information voter (Filibuster cover-
up in the April 11 edition of the Daily
Journal). He seems to believe a
Republican who opposes background
checks is heartless, calculating and
cruel. Really?
There are already laws on the books
that the government refuses to enforce.
In 2010, there were 15,000 felons or
fugitives who failed background
checks. The Obama administration only
prosecuted 44. Who is heartless? This
is just one example. It appears the real
calculators are those who dont want to
solve the violence. The weapons used
at Sandy Hook Elementary School
were legally purchased and registered.
The new laws, like those in the past,
wont end the violence but further
erode citizens guns rights. Lets
address the violent schizophrenics pri-
marily responsible for these terrible
events.
The lefts solution is in the Manchin-
Toomey bill. It allows physicians to
determine your mental tness. They
could add your name to the federal
database without your knowledge or
due process. The feds could enter your
home and conscate all your weapons.
Are your children on Ritalin? Have you
ever been prescribed Valium or Zoloft
to relieve depression or stress? It may
hinder you passing a background check
when gun purchasing. Good luck with
the government appeals process.

T
he city of Foster City was a
visionary project. It was a
planned community for the
future. The good news is it was and is.
However, will it continue to be? That is
the challenge before city staff and
elected ofcials. We are participating in
new dialogues and setting policy that is
designed to protect, grow and maintain
the quality of life. The city is engaging
business, the Chamber of Commerce,
and its citizens to better understand the
current needs and design policy to sup-
port our new direction.
The City Council is tasked with set-
ting policy that addresses the needs of
the community and the residents that
live and work here. We reach out into
the community to hear from our resi-
dents through a variety of means. At a
recent meeting, a group of residents
came to see us about our hedge ordi-
nance. They voiced their concerns and
the matter was added to the April 1,
2013 council meeting and is now on
track to be heard by the Planning
Commission. The commission will send
its recommendations to the council and
we will address it accordingly.
The Hedge Ordinance was imple-
mented in 1972 as part of the original
plan of what Foster City should look
and feel like. It has been revisited over
the years, however, it has not been sub-
stantively changed since it was adopted.
While its original intent was in line
with the expectations of the city 40
years ago, there is no doubt that our
community and its composition has
changed signicantly.
After touring the city with the city
manager and community development
director, it became apparent that the
original intent of the
ordinance and its
impact were not
consistent. It may be
time to address aes-
thetic and safety
considerations using
a 2013 model. This
is just one example
of a need to update
the way we look at our city and con-
duct business.
We as a city must continue to reex-
amine our planning, implementation
and throughput. This year, as with
every other year, we are faced with set-
ting our budget for the upcoming scal
year. Over the past years, prior city
councils have tasked staff to sharpen
their pencils and balance the budget.
This has resulted in a rened budget
process with signicant cuts yet main-
taining the quality of life in Foster City.
The cost of living continues to rise as
represented in the consumer price
index. Simply stated, the cost of living
and services continue to escalate for
residents, businesses and city as a
whole. This fact of life has a domino
effect not only upon residents but upon
the citys budget as well. The cost of
purchases of goods and services will
increase and we will have to adjust our
budget accordingly. However, there is
an additional factor to be considered.
Nearly 80 percent of our budget are
the salaries of staff that provide the
services that have a signicant impact
on our quality of life. In any business
that focuses on customer service, peo-
ple are the dening factor. I am proud
to say that our Foster City staff and
police and re departments are among
the best in the country. Foster City is
not only a great place to live, but a fan-
tastic place to work. We attract quality
employees and we do so because we
offer competitive wages and a fantastic
working environment.
In any business, the ability to recruit
and maintain quality employees is
based on a number of factors including
work environment and compensation.
For us to create a realistic budget, we
must take into consideration all line
items that affect our city. We must con-
tinue to examine the correlation
between CPI increases as it relates to
cost of goods and services and its effect
upon city staff salaries. The city must
address this as matter of policy and cre-
ate a budget that reects these consider-
ations.
These are challenging times and there
is no doubt that various revenue sources
are in ux. The states continued read-
justment of funds that the city and
county receives has had an adverse
effect on our budget. The whims of the
market place, commercial retention and
vacancy rates also create additional
uncertainty. We as a city must continue
to be nancially responsible and cau-
tiously optimistic while maintaining our
strong nancial reserves. I remain con-
cerned and hope together we can create
a reasonable budget that is accurate and
responsible while allowing, where pos-
sible, realistic increases in light of esca-
lating costs. We must do all of this and
deliver on our promise of a balanced
budget.

I
ran into Fred Hansson at the Womens Hall of Fame
event last month. He was there accompanying one of
the honorees, a friend from Hillsdale High School
days. I had not seen Hansson in some time. He served on
the Planning Commission while I was on the City Council
and we worked on many committees together. Fred
Hansson is the most conscientious and thorough of elected
officials. It was a shame
when he lost his re-election
bid for the council because
he had to halt campaigning
while his father and step-
mother were deathly ill.
Fortunately, Supervisor
Carole Groom appointed
him to the San Mateo
County Planning
Commission, where he now
serves.
Hansson and I wanted to
talk about the same thing.
We had been following
news stories in the Daily
Journal about the Klaiber house in the North Shoreview
neighborhood of San Mateo. We remembered well how the
Klaibers application for extensive work on the family
home (back in the 1990s) had been turned down by the
Planning Commission even though nearly everyone from
the neighborhood turned out and supported the family and
the design. Mr. Klaiber planned to do the work himself
even though some on the Planning Commission questioned
his ability to do so. Then there were questions about the
design. At that time, the city had no design guidelines and
no rules on how long it could take for the work to be done.
The Planning Commissions denial was appealed to the
City Council. Hansson and I believed the Klaibers needed
a chance to build their dream house even though city
staff and some commissioners warned this was more than
a simple home improvement. Mr. and Mrs. Klaiber
brought their two young sons, each of whom was wearing
a hearing aid or some kind of contraption in their ears as
the results of frequent ear infections, to the hearing. I felt
badly the children had to attend a council meeting at night
when they should have been home sleeping. Somehow, Mr.
Klaiber was describing the need for improvements to his
home as vital to the health and welfare of the children.
The home is located very close to the Third Avenue
entrance to Highway 101. They needed a safe place to
play. I know my heart overtook my brain when I agreed to
let the work proceed. As the years went on, I would drive
by the house about once a week on my way home from a
meeting. I was disappointed that construction never
seemed to be advancing and, what was worse, the front
yard looked like a dump and a health hazard. I was too
embarrassed to ever comment on this to anyone until I ran
into Hansson last week.
So it was not a surprise to read that the city had been
after the owners since 1995 to clear up code violations on
their property. When the court ordered them to do so with
a deadline and the city saying it would bring out a truck
and workers to make sure the house was in compliance,
the Klaibers, with the help of their long-suffering but
devoted neighbors, cleaned up the mess in front to more or
less satisfy the court order and the city. I drove by the
house last week and most of the debris was gone but the
construction was still a work in progress. When I asked
Hansson what he thought of all this, he emailed me The
neighbors tolerated bad behavior which only make it hard-
er for everyone later on. In the hope of doing good, help-
ing the underdog, not being big brother, we got to a bad
situation. Twelve years later who would have thought it
still wouldnt be done.
The consequences of that decision made years ago still
haunts to this day. Maybe, theres still a chance for a
happy ending and that the Klaibers, perhaps with profes-
sional assistance and with the help of their friends and
neighbors, will be able to finish work on their house
quickly and safely. Its about time the Klaiber family had
their dream house.

BUSINESS 10
By Steve Rothwell
NEW YORK For stock investors, safe is
the new sexy.
Health care companies like Johnson &
Johnson and Pzer are surging as investors
buy stocks that give them what they used to
get from bonds a steady investment with a
regular payout. Consumer staples stocks like
Proctor & Gamble and utilities are also charg-
ing higher.
These stocks which offer good dividends
and can grow regardless of the state of the
economy show that investors are hungry
for more income, but arent ready to take on
too much risk.
Defensive sectors, especially those that
have these attractive dividend yields have
been the investment of choice for those that
are looking to dip their toes back into the
water, says Stephen Parker, a portfolio man-
ager at JPMorgan Private Bank.
The Federal Reserves efforts to stimulate
the U.S. economy holding interest rates
close to zero and spending $85 billion a
month on bond purchases have pushed
bond yields so low that investors are being
forced to look elsewhere to nd income.
At the same time, people are getting com-
fortable with the idea of holding stocks again
after being burnt by the market collapse that
followed the nancial crisis and the onset of
the Great Recession. The Standard & Poors
500 index is up 135 percent from its recession
low on March 9, 2009. Housing is recovering,
companies are hiring and corporate prots are
strong.
Investors are tired of missing out on the
rally that weve seen in stocks but, theyre not
willing to go full in, says Brad Sorensen a
director of market and sector research at
Charles Schwab. With so-called defensive
stocks, people are hedging their bets on the
stock market a little bit.
Stock mutual funds took in $38.2 billion of
net deposits in the rst three month of the
year, compared with an outow of $4.6 billion
last year, according to Lipper fund ow data.
The demand has contributed to the stock
markets jump in 2013. The Dow Jones indus-
trial average is up 13 percent while S&P 500
has climbed 11 percent.
Leading the gains are health care stocks.
They have climbed almost 20 percent fol-
lowed by consumer staples at 16.5 percent
and utilities at 15.3 percent. Meanwhile, the
industries you would expect to do well during
a recovery are lagging.
Energy companies, which often lead the
pack during times of growth, have gained 8.1
percent this year.
Its easy to see the attraction of stocks.
Johnson & Johnson has a dividend yield of
3 percent, compared with a yield of 1.9 per-
cent for its top-rated bonds. The companys
products range from baby oil to medical
devices.
Procter & Gamble, which makes necessities
like Pepto Bismol and Tide detergent, has a
dividend yield of 2.8 percent. Thats a higher
than the companys bonds, which yield 2.2
percent. Investors could also see the stock
price rise.
P&G has returned 19 percent this year,
including a 56 cent dividend payment it made
in January. Johnson & Johnson has also
returned 19 percent, including a 61 cent pay-
ment to shareholders in February.
Still, rising prices will eventually lead to
diminishing returns. As with bonds, the more
stocks rise, the lower the income they gener-
ate in relation to the investment made. The
dividend yield on P&Gs stock, while still
higher than the average company in the S&P
500, has dropped sharply since the start of the
year.
Another paradox is that, the faster these
safe stocks climb, the more vulnerable they
become to a sell-off. Defensive stocks may no
longer be that defensive.
For example, after the recent run-up in
prices, many utility stocks are now more
expensively priced than the broader market.
Historically, they have been cheaper because
of their poor growth prospects.
The two factors; relatively stable business-
es and relatively high current valuations offset
each other, says Matthew Cofna, an editor
at MorningStar StockInvestor. Defensive
stocks are not quite as safe as they might oth-
erwise be.
Safe is sexy; defensive stocks lead gains
WASHINGTON President
Barack Obamas budget overtures
to Republicans may limit his bar-
gaining power if the GOP ever
returns to the negotiating table on a
grand decit-reduction deal.
In essence, Obamas spending
blueprint is a nal offer, a no-budge
budget whose central elements have
failed to persuade Republicans in
the past.
By voluntarily putting entitlement
cuts on the table, particularly a pro-
posal to slow the rise of Social
Security benets, Obama has no
other gambit to win tax increases
from Republicans.
With many Democrats balking at
what hes already offering, its not
politically feasible for him to offer
the GOP anything more.
P u z z l e d
D e m o c r a t s
maintain that
Obama not only
has given away
his leverage, he
also has threat-
ened the very
identity of his
party, which
sees the Social
Security Act of 1935 as one of its
signature achievements.
If hes trying to do it to show he
is forthcoming as a negotiator, then
why doesnt he wait until he gets to
the negotiating table? said Rep.
Rush Holt, D-N.J. Theres a lot of
talk about the fact that politically
this is not a winner. Our brand is the
party that brought you Social
Security.
Whats irked Democrats the most
is Obamas decision to include a
signicant shift in policy in his $3.8
trillion budget that would alter the
governments calculation of ina-
tion, or the Consumer Price Index.
If adopted, this new chained CPI
would change the way the govern-
ment measures ination and would
slow the rise in Social Security ben-
ets and other programs.
In exchange, Obama is insisting
on $580 billion in tax increases on
wealthier taxpayers. Its a demand
that Republicans atly reject.
The president has offered the ben-
et cut to Republicans before as
part of broad decit reduction nego-
tiations, and only in exchange for
tax increases the GOP stringently
opposes.
The White House says the same
quid pro quo applies to Obamas
current offer, and chained CPI cant
take effect as a solo measure.
You cant decide to only pick out
the concessions the president has
made and not include the conces-
sions that are from the Republican
side, that need to be part of a bipar-
tisan deal that could pass both hous-
es, said Gene Sperling, the top
White House economist.
Faced with the withering criti-
cism from Democratic and liberal
allies, the White House has argued
that the ination proposal in the
budget is a response to specific
Republican demands during budget
talks last year. This is a Republican
proposal, White House spokesman
Jay Carney insisted.
But the idea has been part of the
thinking in Obamas inner econom-
ic circle for two years, one the pres-
ident put on the table during debt
ceiling talks with the GOP in the
summer of 2011.
Obama aides say the president
had to include the Social Security
change in the budget or risk being
accused by Republicans of walking
away from his previous offers.
They say giving Republicans
some of the entitlement cuts they
seek means the GOP has one less
reason to say no to the presidents
proposals.
The ball is now the Republicans
court, said Dan Pfeiffer, Obamas
senior adviser. Are they as serious
about reducing the decit as they
claim to be?
But placing the plan on a negoti-
ating document is quite different
from including the ination propos-
al in the presidents budget, a docu-
ment that turns his proposals from
bargaining positions into actual pol-
icy proposals.
Obamas budget plan limits his bargaining power
First medical marijuana
school in Nevada opens
HENDERSON, Nev. The rst school in Nevada devoted
to teaching people how to operate a successful medical mari-
juana dispensary has opened.
The Cannabis Career Institute launched its Budtender School
with a workshop for about 40 students on Saturday in
Henderson.
Institute founder Robert Calkin says his school educates
would-be entrepreneurs on all aspects of the medical marijuana
business, including how to grow marijuana legally and bake it
into brownies, cookies and cakes.
The schools opening comes as Nevada lawmakers consider
a bill that would provide a way for patients to nally get the
drug 13 years after Nevada voters approved use of medical mar-
ijuana.
The measure cleared its rst hurdle Thursday as the Senate
Judiciary Committee unanimously approved it. The bill calls
for the establishment and regulation of pot dispensaries.
Its coming, Calkin told the Las Vegas Sun. Nevada has
always been cutting-edge socially and politically. It was ahead
of other states on gambling and prostitution, and (marijuana) is
a lot less problematic. Nevada appears to be on the cusp of
approving it.
A bill to legalize the recreational use of marijuana in the
Silver State died Friday in an Assembly committee without a
vote.
The institute has held similar workshops in other cities across
the U.S., and more than 1,500 people hold certicates from it.
But Calkin acknowledges a federal law prohibiting the
growth and sale of marijuana poses a problem for the business.
No state law will prevent federal authorities from sending own-
ers of pot dispensaries to prison.
We know that (because of) federal laws, no matter what we
do in the realm of medical marijuana, it is illegal, he told the
Las Vegas Review-Journal. Hopefully in the future, that will
evolve.

A season of historic proportions
for the College of San Mateo track
and field throwers has reached
record-breaking status.
Evan McDaniel, one of the prized
Bulldog standouts this season in
track, regained the national lead and
broke a 24-year-old College of San
Mateo shot put record Saturday at
the Maurice Compton Invitational.
The sophomore hit 58 feet, 4
inches on his rst effort of the day
to retake the United States commu-
nity college lead that Deondra
Canaday of Coffeyville, Kan. had
taken away with a 57-6 ? put on
March 30.
The throw also broke the CSM
school record of 58-3, set in 1989
by Kevin Marks. McDaniels previ-
ous best was 56-9 ? at last months
Bob Rush Invitational.
McDaniel now leads the state by
nearly four feet. He won the event
by the Maurice Compton by nearly
14 feet over teammate Collin Luu
who put 44-8.
Ive been wanting that record,
McDaniel said after the meet.
Thats been my goal since I got
here last year. Im so happy about it.
Now I really want to get 60 feet.
Thats a big benchmark.
McDaniel started the day with a
hammer throw of 147-5, placing
second. His best mark of 157-10,
accomplished in March of 2013, is
No. 2 on CSMs all-time list. He n-
ished with a season best discus
throw of 158-1 to place second.
On the track, CSM freshman
sprint star Breanna Navarre (South
San Francisco High School) n-
ished second in the womens 400
meters in 59.62, just behind the
states No. 2 ranked runner, Asha
Giles of Laney College.
State sprint leader Khadija
Suleman of Laney won the 200
meters in24.83, ahead of Giles and
Navarre (25.98).

CHICAGO With a record
number of wild pitches in the middle
of the game and a balk near the end,
the San Francisco Giants sure got
plenty of help from the Chicago
Cubs.
Theyll take it.
Edwin Jackson and Michael
Bowden tied a major league record
by combining to throw ve wild
pitches in an inning, and the Giants
got another big assist from a Cubs
pitcher in a three-run 10th Sunday
that led to their 10-7 victory over
Chicago.
The Cubs matched the record for
wild pitches by a team in an inning
during a four-run sixth that put San
Francisco ahead 5-4, but the Giants
had to rally again.
Chicago led 7-6 before Hunter
Pences solo homer on a 2-2 pitch
off Shawn Camp (0-1) with two outs
in the ninth.
One-out singles by Hector
Sanchez and Brandon Crawford put
runners at the corners in the 10th.
With Buster Posey batting, Camp
was called for a balk as he stepped
off the rubber to try to throw to rst,
giving San Francisco an 8-7 lead.
Posey followed with an RBI single
and, one out later, Marco Scutaro
added a run-scoring double.
Camp had no issue with the balk
call, saying, I got a little caught,
and I just froze up.

end of its regular season and the top

Gates division so closely contested,

And Saturdays game against the
City College of San Francisco could
have been one of those contest that
on paper dont look like much of a
challenge, but can come back to bite

But the Bulldogs, behind the hit-
ting of Brandon Defazio and the

the Rams 7-1.

Herrera remains unbeaten on the

AUGUSTA, Ga. Adam Scott
nished the job this time, and put an
end to more than a half-century of
Australian misery at the Masters.
With the two biggest putts of his
career, Scott holed a 20-footer for
birdie on the 18th hole of regulation
that put him into a playoff with
Angel Cabrera, and then won his
rst major championship Sunday
with a 12-footer for birdie on the
second extra hole.
Scott leaned back and thrust his
arms in the air after the putt dropped
on the 10th hole, a celebration for
all of Australia and personal
redemption for himself. It was only
last summer when Scott threw away
the British Open by making bogey
on his last four holes to lose by one
shot to Ernie Els. The 32-year-old
handled that crushing defeat with
dignity and pledged to finish
stronger given another chance.
Next time Im sure there will be
a next time I can do a better job
of it, he said that day.
Scott was close to perfect, and he
had to be with Cabrera delivering
some brilliance of his own.
Moments after Scott made his 20-
foot birdie putt on the 18th hole for
a 3-under 69 to take a one-shot lead

CSM SWIMMING
History wasnt just made on the track for
CSM over the weekend.
College of San Mateo diver Erin Harris
placed rst in the Coast Conference champi-
onships, qualifying for the state nals in the
process.
The top eight in the Coast earned a trip to
Los Angeles.
CSM swim coach Randy Wright called
Harris a gamer and said she battled the u
during the championships.
Harris score of 157.05 in the 1-meter was
good for rst in the conference and sixth in
northern California.
She then followed that with a 3-meter score
of 144.50 good for rst in conference and
seventh in NorCal.
Wright said Harris dive list was difcult,
but in a gutsy effort, she completed all of
them.
The state nals begin Thursday, April 25 at
East Los Angeles College.
Wright expects Harris to be healthy and at
100 perfect.
On the mens side, Jeremy Rodiguez posted
a 112.15 in the 1-meter (fourth in conference,
20th in NorCal) and 83.10 in the 3-meter (fth
and 21st).
The CSM swimmers, led by the great Miya
Oto, begin Coast Conference championship

George Kontos (1-1) pitched a scoreless
inning for the win, and Sergio Romo worked
the 10th for his seventh save in eight chances.
Starlin Castro and Nate Schierholtz hit two-
run homers in the rst off Tim Lincecum for a
4-1 lead.
Jackson got in trouble in the sixth when he
threw two wild pitches and Bowden added
three more. The Cubs matched the mark set by
Bert Cunningham of Buffalo in a Players
League game in 1890 and matched by the St.
Louis Cardinals Rick Ankiel in the 2000 NL
division series against Atlanta. Jackson and
Bowden also combined to walk four in the
inning, with Jackson starting the inning with
free passes to Pence and Brandon Belt.
Gregor Blanco doubled in a run and Jackson
allowed another run with his second wild
pitch of the inning.
Bowden came in when Nick Noonan pinch
hit for Lincecum, and he threw a wild pitch.
Noonan hit a two-run single for a 5-4 lead.
Bowden threw two more wild pitches,
walked Angel Pagan and got Scutaro to hit
into an inning-ending double play.
The guy was throwing well and throwing
hard, great stuff, Giants manager Bruce
Bochy said. You get some breaks there and
you take them. Youre hoping someone comes
through with a big hit, Noonans was huge.
Jackson was furious at himself.
I feel like rst of all its unexcusable to let
your team down like that when you self-
imploded like that and not make an adjust-
ment to regain control of your pitches, he
said.

one-out wild pitch. Defazio then delivered his
rst big hit of the game, pulling the ball down
the left eld line for an RBI double. The two
doubles seemed to rattle the CCSF pitcher
Tyler Scharn, who then went on to hit both
Ryan OMalley and Kailen Robinson to load
the bases. Scharn then walked Jarrett Costa for
the innings second run.
In the second, the top of the CSM order was
at it again. With one out, Vande Guchte sin-
gled and Craig followed suit with a base
knock of his own. The situation then called for
another big hit by Defazio, who delivered in
three-base fashion by stroking a triple in the
gap to clear the bases and make it 4-0.
A Vande Guchte sacrice y in the bottom
of the third made it 5-0.
And that was more than enough for Herrera
who ran into a bit of trouble in the second
after an error produced a no-out, runner on
third base situation the Rams cashed in on.
But from there, Herrera allowed just one
more CCSF base runner to reach scoring posi-
tion.
After seven innings of work, Herrera was
spelled by Vincent Coci, Skyler Fuss and DJ
Sharabi, who combined ran through the last
six outs in perfect fashion.
OHLONE 5, CAADA 4
Speaking of a tight division race, Caada
College found itself with a chance to make the
Pacic Division of the Coast Conference way
more interesting with a showdown against
rst-place Ohlone College.
With ve games remaining, all six teams in
the division are within two games of each
other in the standings.
But two, eighth-innings runs by Ohlone
were just enough to get past the Colts and
Caada fell 5-4.
The Colts jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the
second inning thanks to a pair of Ohlone
errors that allowed Kevin McGove and Shadi
Azar to eventually score.
But Ohlone did its damage four innings
later off of David Moody. Caada committed
ve errors in the game in the sixth inning
rally for Ohlone, an outeld error kept the
frame alive and the home team got a couple of
clutch singles to take the lead.
To Caadas credit, they bounced right
back. In the seventh, the Colts retook the lead
following three straight singles to lead off the
frame. Anthony Gomes had the bit hit of the
inning, a double, that gave Caada a 4-3 lead.
But in the eighth, an error on the ineld by
the Colts opened the door for the division
leaders. With a runner on second, LJ Talawala
tripled to bring in the tying run. And a batter
later, Aeryk Hernandez singled in the eventu-
al winning run.
Ryan DeGregorio took the loss for Caada.
In other Pacic Division scores, Skyline
College kept pace and remains just a pair of
games out of rst place with a 9-5 over
Gavilan College.
The Trojans and Colts face each other this
week in a big Pacic division showdown. The
game will be played Thursday on the San
Bruno campus.

OAKLAND Injured Octavio
Dotel danced his way through the
Detroit clubhouse, gyrating and
skipping while Torii Hunter held
court in front of his locker.
The ALs top hitting team is piling
up the hits and runs and having a
good time along the way.
Getting solid production from
leadoff hitter Austin Jackson and
the lower part of the batting order,
the Tigers routed the Oakland
Athletics 10-1 Sunday for their third
win in four games.
Jackson had four hits, including a
two-run homer, and Detroit got a
much-needed boost from its Nos. 5-
9 hitter, who combined for ve hits,
two runs and three RBIs. Not bad,
when the top of the order includes
Prince Fielder and Triple Crown
winner Miguel Cabrera.
We show you the left, then we
sting with the right, said Hunter,
who had two doubles and a triple.
You look at Prince, Cabrera and
myself ... you kind of forget about
our catsh, the bottom feeders.
Detroits big three combined to
drive in four runs and score ve
times, but it was Jackson and bot-
tom of the order provided spark.
Jhonny Peralta, the No. 6 hitter,
had two hits and an RBI. Victor
Martinez and Andy Dirks also drove
in runs for the Tigers.
We grind out our at-bats pretty
good, Detroit manager Jim
Leyland said. Jackson really sets a
good tempo for us. When your lead-
off hitter gets four hits, you should
score some runs.
Hunter had three extra-base hits
for the rst time since June 13,
2009, for the Los Angeles Angels
Cabrera drove in two runs for the
Tigers, who had 14 hits. The rst
eight batters in the Tigers batting
order had at least one hit, and seven
players drove in runs.
Oakland managed just three hits
while losing its second straight fol-
lowing a nine-game winning streak.
They swung well this whole
series, and when youre not making
your pitches this is what happens,
As manager Bob Melvin said. We
just got shut down the last couple of
games.
Anibal Sanchez overcame a slug-
gish start to pitch seven innings,
winning his second straight outing
and giving Detroits bullpen a need-
ed rest.
Sanchez (2-0) pitched with run-
ners on base in three of the rst four
innings but limited the damage until
nding his rhythm. He allowed one
run, three hits and four walks,
matching his season-high of eight
strikeouts.
Rick Porcello, skipped in the rota-
tion due to Mondays off day,
pitched two scoreless innings.
Detroits bullpen, taxed in recent
days, was without Dotel due to an
elbow injury.
Derek Norris doubled and drove
in the lone run for the As. Oakland,
which entered the game leading the
majors in several offensive cate-
gories, struck out 38 times in the
three-game series.
Jarrod Parker (0-2), who lost to
Detroit in Games 1 and 5 of last
years AL division series, gave up a
career-high eight runs and nine hits
in 3 1-3 innings, leaving him with a
10.80 ERA.
Jackson hit the rst of his three
singles leading off the game, and
Hunter followed with an RBI dou-
ble over center elder Chris Young
and scored on Martinezs single off
the right-eld wall for a 2-0 lead.
Jackson doubled the lead in the sec-
ond with his rst home run this sea-
son.
I made a couple of good pitches
and they hit them, and I made a cou-
ple of bad pitches and they hit
them, Parker said.

DENVER The Denver
Nuggets are getting good at bitter-
sweet moments.
Andre Iguodala scored 28 points
and the Nuggets set an NBA fran-
chise record with their 55th win
Sunday, beating the short-handed
Portland Trail Blazers 118-109 but
losing another starter.
On the day Ty Lawson (right
heel) returned to Denvers starting
lineup for the first time since
March 27 and played an encourag-
ing 31 minutes, forward Kenneth
Faried sprained his left ankle in the
opening minutes while driving for
a layup and didnt return.
Were dropping like flies, man,
Lawson said. Well, its not too
serious, I heard, so he might be out
for a week or so. Hes a tough guy.
Although X-rays were negative,
coach George Karl stressed that he
didnt want to guess about Farieds
availability for the playoffs that
start next weekend until after his
top rebounder goes for an MRI on
Monday.
The Nuggets tweeted this quote
from Faried two hours after the
game: Extremely scared. I never
felt a pain like that a day in my
life. He also said hed be ready for
the playoffs: I know I will be out
there. If I can walk, I can play.
Faried crumpled to the floor,
covering his face and holding his
left ankle as the Nuggets called a
timeout less than three minutes
into the game. The Pepsi Center
crowd grew quiet the way it had
10 days earlier when forward
Danilo Gallinari blew out his left
ACL driving to the same hoop
against Dallas.
In an all-too-familiar sight,
Quincy Miller and Anthony
Randolph helped their teammate as
he gingerly walked off the court, a
towel covering his face. Randolph
would get some of Farieds min-
utes and finish with 18 points.
Faried was averaging 11.7 points
and a team-best 9.3 rebounds.
I felt like we were snakebit or
bad luck had come our way, our
karma had turned the wrong way,
Karl said. I kind of saw it and then
when he stayed down, I was wor-
ried. I dont think anythings bro-
ken. But well find out much more
tomorrow.
As they did when Gallinari went
down, the Nuggets rallied behind
their latest fallen starter, and
grabbed a piece of history with
their 55th win.
The Nuggets, who went 54-28 in
both 1987-88 and 2008-09, also
extended their franchise-best win-
ning streak at home to 22 straight
games but more importantly they
moved a game ahead of the
Clippers and Grizzlies in the race
for the third seed in the Western
Conference.

Cabrera answered with an approach that
plopped down 3 feet from the cup, one of the
greatest shots under the circumstances. That
gave him an easy birdie and a 2-under 70.
They both chipped close for par on the 18th
in the rst playoff hole, and Cabreras 15-foot
birdie putt on the 10th grazed the right side of
the cup.
With his long putter anchored against his
chest, Scotts putt was true all the way.
The Masters was the only major an
Australian had never won, and Scott was
among dozens of golfers who routinely rose in
the early hours of Monday morning for the
telecast, only to watch a horror show. The
leading character was Greg Norman, who had
four good chances to win, none better than
when he blew a six-shot lead on the last day to
Nick Faldo in 1996.
There was Jim Ferrier in 1952, Bruce
Crampton 20 years later, and Scott and Jason
Day only two years ago. Norman, though, was
the face of Aussie failures at the Masters, and
Scott paid him tribute in Butler Cabin before
he slipped on that beautiful green jacket.
Australian is a proud sporting nation, and
this is one notch in the belt we never got,
Scott said. Its amazing that it came down to
me today. But theres one guy who inspired a
nation of golfers, and thats Greg Norman.
Hes been incredible to me and all the great
golfers. Part of this belongs to him.
Scott was just as gracious in victory as he
was last summer at Royal Lytham & St.
Annes. He and Cabrera ashed a thumbs-up to
each other after their shots into the 10th hole
in the playoff, and they walked off the 10th
green with their arms around each other when
it was over.
Such is golf, Cabrera said. Adam is a
good winner.
It was a riveting conclusion to a week lled
with some awkward moments. There was the
one-shot penalty called against 14-year-old
Guan Tianlang that nearly kept the Chinese
teen from becoming the youngest player to
make the cut. There was the illegal drop by
Tiger Woods, who was given a two-shot
penalty over questions and confusion about
why he was not disqualied for signing an
incorrect card.
And at the end, there was shot-making at its
nest.
Scott didnt make a bogey after the rst
hole, and he really didnt miss a shot the rest
of the day on a rainy Sunday at Augusta.

DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Falling behind in the count 0-2 is
nothing to fret about when youre
former Serra slugger Zack Turner.
The junior designated hitter
helped USF to a series sweep at
Santa Clara yesterday with a pair of
clutch doubles, both in two-strikes
counts.
Following a two-out double by
Bradley Zimmer in the rst inning,
Turner worked a 3-2 count before
blasting a double to center to drive
home the rst run of the day. After
the Dons surrendered a 5-0 lead to
send the game to extra-innings,
Turner came up clutch again, setting
the table with a one-out double
before Matt Miller delivered a two-
out, two-RBI knock to give USF a
7-5 win.
It turned out to be something of a
wild weekend at Schott Stadium, as
all three games went into extra-
innings. USF took Friday nights
opener 4-3 in 12 innings, then
returned Saturday to win 5-3 in 13
innings. Yesterdays game went a
mere 10 innings, totaling 35 innings
on the series. Yet Dons manager
Nino Giarratano got good longevity
on the mound, utilizing just eight
total pitchers throughout the three
extra-inning games.
I just think any time you get into
an extra-inning game, you dont
know what youre going to get,
Giarratano said. And if youve got
a guy throwing strikes and doing his
job, you just kind of leave him, and
you use it as an (starter-type)
appearance.
Cox to start
The staffs strong effort bodes
well for freshman pitcher Thomas
Cox, who is slated to take the ball
tomorrow in a non-conference
matchup at Cal. An All-West
Catholic Athletic League starter at
Serra last year, Cox broke into the
Dons starting rotation last week
with a 4-1 win at Nevada-Reno,
holding the Wolf Pack to two hits
over six-plus innings.
Until recently, Cox had been
infallible. The
l e f t - h a n d e r
opened his col-
legiate career
with seven
scoreless relief
a ppe a r a nc e s .
The streak nal-
ly ended March
28 when St.
Marys got to
him for a pair of runs. Still, Cox has
been one of the Dons most reliable
arms, holding opposing batters to a
.145 batting average.
Hes pitched so well out of the
bullpen, Giarratano said. Every
opportunity weve given him hes
come in, hes been able to get right
and left-handed hitters out. So he
just continued to move up the
(depth) chart.
Prior to debuting as a starter April
9, Cox had not thrown more than 2
1/3 innings in a game. The plan
heading into Nevada-Reno was sim-
ilar, as Giarratano said they initially
projected the freshman to give them
no more than three innings.
However, Cox had a perfect game
through three, setting down the rst
11 batters he faced. He went on to
set down 18 of 19, before departing
in the seventh after surrendering a
leadoff single.
By [the fourth inning] we were
just like there is no reason to
mess with it, Giarratano said.
Hes getting them out. And its a
good day. So we left him in there
until he gave up his second hit, and
then we got him out of there. That
was great.
At the start of the school year,
Cox was in the mix as a potential
starter, but suffered a back injury at
the beginning of fall. He did not
resume pitching until late
December. The 2012 Serra Team
Co-MVP hinted at his excitement
over returning to a starting role.
I just want to pitch, Cox said.
Its nice to be a starter again. But
like every pitcher on our staff, we
want the ball every game.
Turner plays defense
After playing the entire season as
USFs designated hitter, Turner
debuted on the other side of the ball,
entering Saturdays game as a rst
baseman in the 12th inning.
Turner has been rehabbing his
throwing shoulder since undergoing
his second surgery prior to the sea-
son. A natural catcher, he has been
playing the position in practice, but
has been keeping the throwing to a
minimum. There is still no
timetable for his return to catcher.
But while the junior-transfer from
Caada College didnt see any
throwing plays in his two innings in
the eld, he expressed condence in
his ability to do so.
I was ready to, Turner said.
My arm is ne with it, but I didnt
get that opportunity.
Turner is currently hitting .321,
and paces the team in hits (44) and
RBIs (26). His fellow Serra alum-
nus, senior leadoff hitter Justin
Maffei, ranks second on the team
with 41 hits.
Tomorrows game at Cal is slated
for a 2:30 p.m. start.
Serra trio rolling at USF, Cox to start tomorrow

Beckett takes shutout
to 9th, Dodgers lose 1-0
PHOENIX Watching Josh Beckett pitch
his best game for the Dodgers, Los Angeles
manager Don Mattingly decided it was the
pitchers game to win or lose.
A.J. Pollock hit a one-out double in the
ninth inning and scored on Paul
Goldschmidts seeing-eye grounder to right
eld, lifting the Arizona Diamondbacks to a
1-0 win Sunday.
Beckett (0-2) allowed six hits, walked one
and struck out nine over 8 1-3 innings, his
longest outing since a one-hit shutout for
Boston against Tampa Bay on June 15, 2011.
Mattingly didnt have a reliever warm up
until Pollock reached base,
It was a no-brainer, the manager said.
there was no question. It was his game.
Beckett entered 1-2 with a 5.16 at Chase
Field. The only batter to reach third was Cliff
Pennington, who was stranded twice after sin-
gling in the third and doubling in the fth.
If a guy is throwing the ball well through
eight innings and hasnt given up a run, I
dont care who it is, they earned the right to
go back out there, Beckett said.

MIAMI Carlos Boozer turned
his shoulder and knocked Dwyane
Wade to the floor, while Nate
Robinson shoved LeBron James as
the NBAs reigning MVP leaped
near the basket.
All in the same sequence, no less.
It was physical, rugged and exact-
ly what the Miami Heat needed as
part of their preparations for the
playoffs, which start this coming
weekend. James scored 24 points,
Wade nished with 22 and the Heat
set a franchise record for home wins
in a season by topping the Chicago
Bulls 105-93 on Sunday.
It was good, especially against
this team, said James, who had
seven rebounds and six assists.
Youre denitely not just going to
show up and win against these guys.
Youre going to have to work for it.
So for us, to continue to get better
and for us to have a really physical
game, good game, testy game, we
liked it.
Chicago had more fouls (30) than
eld goals (29), the rst time the
Bulls have managed that in a regu-
lar-season game since Nov. 19,
2008.
The Bulls sent Miami to the line a
season-high 41 times, and at times
were so reliant on the 3-point shot
that they went more than 16 minutes
to open the second half without a
single 2-point basket.
Were trying to get ready, Heat
coach Erik Spoelstra said. And you
play a team thats physical like this,
it gets you ready.
The Bulls shot 35 percent, and
were far better outside the 3-point
arc (11-for-26, 42 percent) than
inside it (18-for-56, 32 percent).
Robinson missed 11 shots himself.
Miamis Big Three of James,
Wade and Chris Bosh missed 12
combined.
Thats the best team in the NBA
as of right now, Robinson said.
Mario Chalmers and Chris
Andersen each scored 15 for
Miami, which improved to 36-4 at
home topping the 35-6 mark by
the 2004-05 Heat. Bosh had 12
points, nine rebounds and four
blocks for Miami, which also got 11
points from Mike Miller.
Miami is at Cleveland on
Monday, with Wade, Udonis
Haslem and Shane Battier not even
making the trip. James said he
would be a game-time decision
Monday, but leaning toward not
playing against his former team.
Boozer nished with 16 points
and 20 rebounds for the Bulls, who
snapped Miamis 27-game winning
streak last month. Luol Deng led
Chicago in scoring with 19,
Robinson and Kirk Hinrich scored
14 apiece and Jimmy Butler added
13 for the Bulls, who played with-
out Joakim Noah (foot), Taj Gibson
(knee), Richard Hamilton (one-
game NBA suspension) and of
course, Derrick Rose, who has been
out all year while coming back from
a knee injury.
We just have to keep moving for-
ward and concentrate on improv-
ing, Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau
said. Hopefully we will get a cou-
ple of guys back soon. I dont want
us thinking about the playoffs. I
want us thinking about the game
(Monday) against the Orlando
Magic.
The loss keeps Chicago in the No.
6 spot in the Eastern Conference,
just behind Atlanta. Miami has
wrapped up home-court advantage
throughout the playoffs, and opens
the postseason at home next week-
end against the Milwaukee Bucks.
The Bulls (43-37) are a game
behind Atlanta (44-36), though
Chicago would own the head-to-
head tiebreaker. Chicago is at
Orlando on Monday and plays host
to Washington on Wednesday.
Atlanta hosts Toronto on Tuesday
and closes at the New York Knicks
on Wednesday.
We need to play well these last
two games and get as healthy as we
can be, Hinrich said.
For the Heat, that get-healthy
mission has been the mantra for a
few weeks now, with Wade, James,
Bosh, Haslem and Battier all among
those dealing with nagging issues of
late.
And after Sunday, there might
have been a few more bumps and
bruises. There were no fewer than
six instances of Heat players ending
up on the oor in the rst 6 minutes
alone.
We wanted to win, Bosh said,
and we always want to protect
home court.
James made his rst seven shots,
one of them a dunk off a bounce
pass by Chalmers to give Miami a
46-31 lead midway through the sec-
ond quarter. The dunk was with
such force, Hinrich found himself
inching to get out of the balls way.
The Bulls bounced back quickly.
A 23-10 run to end the rst half got
Chicago within 56-54 at the break,
and briefly took the lead when
Jimmy Butler converted a four-
point play to make it 61-60.
But the Heat regained control
before long. Up 78-71 with 3:40 left
in the third, Wade tried to throw a
soft lob to James, on the play where
he got leveled by Boozer and
Robinson sent James into an awk-
ward collision with the basket stan-
chion.
A clear-path foul against Boozer
was called, the lead went to 82-71
on that sequence and the Heat still
were up nine entering the fourth.
I thought we played very well as
a team from the start of the game to
the end, Wade said.

Keselowski expresses
anger toward NASCAR
FORT WORTH, Texas Brad Keselowski
had plenty of good things to say about his
team for all it overcame for another top-10
nish.
As for his feelings about NASCAR, the
defending Sprint Cup champion is pretty
angry these days.
The things Ive seen over the last seven
days have me questioning everything that I
believe in, and Im not happy about it,
Keselowski said in the garage area after
Saturday nights race at Texas.
Before the race that Kyle Busch won to
complete a weekend sweep, NASCAR cons-
cated the original rear-end housing from
Keselowskis No. 2 Ford and the No. 22 of
Joey Logano, his Penske Racing teammate.
That could lead to penalties, including possi-
bly suspensions, the loss of championship
points and nes.
Logano was late to the starting grid because
of the additional inspections after changes,
and he had to start at the back of the eld. He
charged to a fth-place nish, four spots
ahead of Keselowski, who kept his starting
spot of 16th.
I have one good thing to say, and that was
my team and the effort they put in today, in
ghting back with the absolute (expletive)
thats been the last seven days in this garage
area, Keselowski said.
Keselowski, who has six top-10 nishes and
is second in season points behind Jimmie
Johnson, got a penalty a week earlier at
Martinsville for pitting outside his stall. He
still disputes that.

veryone knows there are dog peo-
ple and cat people. Well, for the
most part. I know many people who
have a paw in each camp. And, within the
cat people category, there are two kinds of
cat people. There are those who would not
dare let their cat go out into the scary world
outside. They know that indoor cats live, on
average, three times as long as cats allowed
to roam outdoors, because they dont face
the same dangers like collisions with cars,
ghts with other cats and wildlife encoun-
ters. They try to make their indoor home as
interesting as possible and often create great
window seats, so their kitties can soak in the
sun and watch the word go by. But, the
other cat people feel they are depriving their
cats by keeping them indoors. They know
outdoor cats face those dangers, but reason
that its a quality-of-life issue and a life with
outdoor activities and freedom is a far more
interesting life than one spent indoors 24/7.
Simply stated, their cats are happier, theyll
say. Theres a solution, an idea that both
kinds of cat people might like. A cattery is a
wood and wire structure attached to the
home. A cat door or small window give your
cat access to this structure, which is essen-
tially an enclosed, screened patio offering
your cat fresh air, outdoor smells, sights and
sounds. It can be any size, from as small as
a window box to something that runs the
length of a side of your house. If you
Google cattery or screened cat structure
youll nd both DIY versions as well as
catteries made from kits. And, soon, youll
be able to see a model cattery inside our
Center for Compassion. Were going to
build one on the side of our Humane House,
our 450-square-foot interactive clubhouse
for kids. All we need is the Eagle Scout to
build it.

LOS ANGELES Baseball has
scored a rare hit in Hollywood,
while another American institution
Tom Cruise has delivered his
latest hit overseas.
The Jackie Robinson tale 42
took in $27.3 million to claim the
weekend box-ofce championship
domestically, according to studio
estimates Sunday.
The lm has yet to open overseas,
where the sport is a harder sell. But
Cruise knocked it out of the park
with a $61.1 million international
launch in 52 countries for his sci-
thriller Oblivion.
That bodes well for the domestic
debut of Oblivion next Friday.
The lm stars Cruise as a workman
on a devastated future Earth who
lands in a battle with aliens.
If Oblivion packs in compara-
ble domestic crowds, it will help
maintain the action-star momentum
Cruise regained with 2011s
Mission: Impossible Ghost
Protocol. That return to box-ofce
luster came after some tful years
that followed odd turns in his per-
sonal life, culminating with the
breakup of his marriage to Katie
Holmes last year.
Released by Warner Bros., 42
easily beat the domestic start of an
established franchise in Scary
Movie 5. The Weinstein Co. sequel
opened in second-place with $15.2
million, the smallest debut for the
horror-comedy series.
Three of the previous four Scary
Movie installments had debuts of
$40 million or more.
On the other hand, 42 outdid
the usual expectations for baseball
movies, which usually do modest
business at best. Box-ofce trackers
had expected 42 to pull in less
than $20 million.
The previous weekends top draw,
Sonys horror remake Evil Dead,
tumbled to No. 5 with $9.5 million,
raising its domestic haul to $41.5
million.
The $27.3 million opening for
42 is a record for a baseball ick
in terms of straight dollars, topping
the $19.5 million debut of
Moneyball in 2011. Factoring in
higher ticket prices, the $13.7 mil-
lion debut of 1992s A League of
Their Own would have been on par
with 42 in terms of ination-
adjusted dollars.
The film stars Chadwick
Boseman as Robinson and Harrison
Ford as Brooklyn Dodgers boss
Branch Rickey, who brought No. 42
onto the team in 1947 as the Major
Leagues rst black player.
Its a story that has so much
emotion to it. Jackie Robinsons life
had such an inuence on our coun-
try, said Dan Fellman, head of dis-
tribution for Warner Bros., who
noted that all Major League players
will wear No. 42 on Monday for
Jackie Robinson Day, the 66th
anniversary of his Dodgers debut.
Think of what a tribute that is for
what he accomplished. Every player
wearing 42 on his back.
With generally good reviews,
42 drew in older crowds, with 83
percent of the audience over 25,
Fellman said.
Scary Movie 5 was the fran-
chises first installment in seven
years and had the same lukewarm
reception as another Weinstein
series that returned after a long lag.
In 2011, Scream 4 opened 11
years after the franchises last
movie and took in just $18.7 mil-
lion, a fraction of the $30 million-
plus debuts for the previous two
sequels.
The previous low for the Scary
Movie series was the second one,
which opened with $20.5 million in
2001. Scary Movie 3 had the best
debut, with $48.1 million in 2003,
though its total domestic haul of
$110 million fell well short of the
$157 million take for the 2000 orig-
inal.
Sometimes, when theres too big
of a lag, people lose interest. If its a
Star Wars movie, nostalgia works
in your favor. The long lag works in
your favor. People are loaded with
anticipation, said Paul
Dergarabedian, an analyst for box-
office tracker Hollywood.com.
Other franchises, if you go too
long, they lose that pop and excite-
ment, and its hard to get that back.
It didnt help that Scary Movie
5 got the franchises worst reviews.
Critics havent much cared for any
of the Scary Movie icks, but
reviews for the latest were almost
universally bad.
In limited release, director
Terrence Malicks drama To the
Wonder had a modest start, taking
in $130,000 in 18 theaters for an
average of $7,222 a cinema. That
compares to a $9,074 average in
3,003 theaters for 42.
To the Wonder stars Ben
Afeck, Olga Kurylenko, Rachel
McAdams and Javier Bardem in a
dreamlike, poetic musing on love.

determined that pointing the bow into
the wind toward the Golden Gate would
create the best conditions for the land-
ing. Even so, Ely was apprehensive
about the crosswinds that might send
him into the ships bow or into the water
if it blew him to the north.
He had to calculate as he was ying
which area to land the plane on to the
left of center of the ropes, right of center
of the ropes, or in the center of the ropes.
He chose to land to the right of center. He
slowed the plane down to 40 mph as he
descended from 400 feet to about 100 feet
and then he leveled off. He approached
the ship and suddenly decided to go
around the ship before coming in again.
The ships deck was full of people
who wanted to see the rst landing of a
plane on a ship. The people were crowd-
ed everywhere on the deck. That made
him nervous as he began getting his
plane ready to make the landing. He
turned off the engine and began his glide
onto the deck.
The wheels made contact, the hook
caught the ropes intended to stop him,
and the planes forward momentum
stopped. There was a period of silence
on the ship and then the crowd broke out
in a cheer. Ely had made the rst landing
onto a naval ship.
Ten years later, the rst ship to be used
as an aircraft carrier was built. Naval
warfare would be changed forever.

HISTORY
Internet voting.
Republicans opposed the online voter-
registration bill approved last session.
Assemblyman Tim Donnelly, the rank-
ing Republican on the Assembly
Elections and Redistricting Committee,
said moving the registration process
online creates new opportunities for
fraud.
Anything that makes things more
accessible Im in favor of, but when you
have no voter ID, you dont really know
who is voting, said Donnelly, of Twin
Peaks in Southern California.
Donnelly has offered bills this year to
purge the registration rolls of those who
did not vote in the past two federal elec-
tions and to expressly prohibit paying
people to vote. He also expressed con-
cerns about proposals to lower age
requirements for voting and registering.
Seventeen-year-olds who would turn
18 before the next general election
would be allowed to vote in the pre-
ceding primary contests under a con-
stitutional amendment from
Assemblyman Kevin Mullin, D-South
San Francisco.
Supporters of that measure and of
SB113 from Sen. Hannah-Beth Jackson,
D-Santa Barbara, which would allow 15-
year-olds to pre-register to vote, said the
goal is to encourage participation by get-
ting voters involved at a younger age.
Donnelly said such proposals are mis-
guided and that voting should not be
allowed until a teenager is a legal adult.
One of the bills under consideration is
in reaction to an $11 million campaign
donation from an Arizona nonprot that
came late in the 2012 election cycle to a
group fighting Gov. Jerry Browns
Proposition 30, which eventually passed
and raised taxes temporarily.
Lack of disclosure of the groups
donors prompted the California Fair
Political Practices Commission to sue
and seek an urgent ruling from the state
Supreme Court, which ordered disclo-
sure just days before the general elec-
tion.
The money that was funneled to the
Arizona group, Americans for
Responsible Leadership, came from two
out-of-state nonprots that already had
spent millions of dollars nationwide pro-
moting Republican candidates. The pres-
ident of one of those nonprots was a
political operative for Charles and David
Koch, the Kansas-based billionaires who
have given millions to conservative caus-
es.
A bill by Yee and fellow Democratic
Sen. Ted Lieu of Torrance, SB3, would
require nonprots that give more than
$100,000 per year to a political cam-
paign or ballot measure committee to
disclose the names of all donors. A com-
panion bill, SB2, would require more
transparency about who is paying for
campaign ads.
Yee said murkier rules in other states
helped Americans for Responsible
Leadership conceal its donors.
Under the pending bill, as soon you
have any of these nonprots donating a
signicant amount of money, you have
to disclose, he said.
Controversy over the donation has
heightened the focus on campaign
spending and what should be disclosed,
said Helen Hutchison, of the League of
Women Voters of California. Her organ-
ization has supported measures to tough-
en the states disclosure system, includ-
ing calls for more frequently updating
nancial data available online.
Its a pretty creaky old database,
Hutchison said of the disclosure system
on the secretary of states website.
BILLS
protect habitat and reduce air pollution
is being used well beyond its intended
purpose and instead is employed by
unions, activist groups and even rival
developers to delay or stop projects they
dont like, often at great legal expense to
developers. The law has been amended
virtually every year since it was signed
in 1970.
Brown has called reforming CEQA
the Lords work. He is on a trade mis-
sion in China and did not attend the con-
vention or record a message to the more
than 2,000 delegates who met to plan
the partys agenda for the coming year.
On the landmark tax limitation law,
Proposition 13, Democrats approved a
resolution saying the still popular 1978
voter-adopted law is unfair because it
allows commercial property owners to
avoid paying their fair share and has
shifted the tax burden to residential
property and away from business.
Democratic activists want to change
the property tax law, which limits prop-
erty taxes based on the value of a prop-
erty to the rate in place at the time of
purchase, to allow regular re-evaluations
of the value for business properties. The
resolution called for maintaining the
current exemption for homeowners.
Proposition 13 has forced the state to
rely on more volatile revenue sources
than the property tax, like income taxes
and sales taxes paid by working families
that move in tandem with economic
cycles, causing decits and requiring
cuts to vital services that grow our econ-
omy and thereby worsening economic
downturns, the resolution said.
But polls show voter support for
Proposition 13 remains strong, and
Democratic legislative leaders have said
they do not intend to pursue major tax
changes in 2013.
DEMS
close, Toomey said.
The measure requires background checks for people buy-
ing guns at gun shows and online. Background checks cur-
rently apply only to transactions handled by the countrys
55,000 licensed gun dealers. Private transactions, such as a
sale of a gun between family members, would still be
exempt.
Manchin urged lawmakers to read the 49-page proposal.
He said it should dispel any misconceptions about infringing
on the constitutional right to bear arms.
You can imagine for what, the last two or three months,
that all you heard is theyre going to take this away from you
and that away, and all of the gun groups are trying to outdo
each other, Manchin said Sunday on Fox News Channel.
And the bottom line is when you have a group now Alan
Gottlieb, the chairman of the Citizens Committee for the
Right to Keep and Bear Arms, said, We read the bill, we like
the bill and it protects law-abiding gun owners like myself.
And they are supporting it now. That is huge.
The senators agreement actually includes language
expanding rearms rights by easing some restrictions on
transporting guns across state lines, protecting sellers from
lawsuits if buyers passed a check but later used a gun in a
crime and letting gun dealers conduct business in states
where they dont live.

these new regulations into their busi-
nesses practices, theres still the issue of
what to do with the unused packaging
that doesnt classify under SB 529,
Pappas said. Replacing and disposing of
the current packages would be a nan-
cial hit to businesses, she said.
Leno countered that the bill is geared
toward large fast food chains. Grocery
stores, mom-and-pop restaurants or
places that primarily function as sit
down restaurants wont be affected.
A study conducted by the Southern
California Coastal Water Research
Project established the prevalence of
plastics in high numbers in the stomachs
of marine animals. Plastic was found in
concentrations six times higher than that
of plankton in a key marine feeding
ground 1,000 miles of the coast of San
Francisco, the study found.
Protecting coastal areas is smart busi-
ness as they contribute millions of annu-
al dollars to the economy and provide
nearly 40,000 jobs, Leno said.
The bill initially called for fast food
establishments to accept back recyclable
or compostable packaging waste from
consumers and to prove it was being
done at specic percentages. But due to
the associations concerns, the bill was
amended to encourage cooperation,
Leno said.
By 2016, the legislation requires the
distributed amount of a disposable food
package material must be determined by
the California Department of Resources
Recycling and Recovery to be recovered
at a rate of 25 percent or more. This per-
centage increases to 50 by 2018 and to
75 by 2020.
These tiered percentage targets are
unrealistic for many restaurants and
could have a major effect on prot mar-
gins, Pappas said.
But California is already subject to
state and federal mandates concerning
the recycling of solid waste and it is time
for the fast food industry to fall in line,
Leno said.
The state currently requires cities and
counties to divert 50 percent of their
solid waste; the percentage increases to
75 in 2020. San Francisco, Leno boasts,
is already at 75 percent.
In turn, local state governments spend
roughly $411 million each year to pre-
vent litter from becoming marine pollu-
tion and a large part of that is related to
fast food packaging.
About $20 million to $200 million is
the universe that were addressing with
this bill, Leno said
Regardless of current efforts, pollution
and waste are having an insurmountable
effect on marine life and the economy,
Leno said. Studies from the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency found
that 80 percent of marine litter originates
from land-based human activities, 90
percent of which is plastic. The EPA also
estimated more than one million tons of
take-out food packaging is generated in
California each year, most of which is
littered or sent to landlls.
The association agrees with the signif-
icance of environmental concerns, but
doesnt think SB 529 will resolve the
core issue of litter by replacing one
product with another.
People can still throw a compostable
cup on the ground, as easily as anything
else, Pappas said.
Environmental group Clean Water
Action has found that up to 49 percent of
street litter is directly related to fast food
chains. Trash can be inadvertently lit-
tered when a gust of wind removes items
from a receptacle without a proper lid
and a narrow fraction of the potentially
recyclable or compostable waste is prop-
erly disposed, according to the group.
Big fast food businesses should not be
exempt from environmental protection
methods, Leno said. Although initially
costly for applicable fast food chains,
holding producers and distributors
accountable is key to making a differ-
ence, he added.
The bill will instate civil penalties for
businesses that dont comply with the
statute. The funds will be deposited into
the Marine Pollution Reduction
Account, created within the state
Treasury.
We are far enough along in our chap-
ter of environmental sensitivity to have
some hindsight now. Its always fasci-
nating to me to hear that it cant be done;
but we do break new ground that indus-
tries always [said was] impossible,
Leno said. But because we push and
nally recognize that were successful in
our efforts, we recognize that its not
impossible, its quite doable.
The Fast Food Packaging and Marine
Pollution Reduction Act will be heard in
the Senate Environmental Quality
Committee meeting April 17.
WASTE
Bags without handles for medicine and newspapers or to seg-
regate food that might contaminate are exempt as are nonprots
such as Goodwill. Restaurants can still send food in to-go bags
as public health ofcials havent yet ruled out the possibility of
reusable bags leading to cross-contamination.
The Peninsula-wide environmental impact report conducted
earlier on the possibility of a ban founded that an estimated 400
million single-use plastic bags are used annually in San Mateo
County.
Leading up to Mondays consideration, San Mateo staff
reached out to approximately 130 businesses to introduce the
proposed ordinance. Continued outreach and eventual enforce-
ment will be handled by the county as with the polystyrene ban.
San Mateo County paved the way for the prohibition of the
disposable products by crafting and then passing an ordinance
that became effective July 1, 2011. The countys initiative only
covered unincorporated areas but cities were encourage to fol-
low suit.
San Mateo Public Works Director Larry Patterson and City
Manager Susan Loftus could not be reached for comment but, in
a report to the City Council, noted that much of the businesses
already use environmentally-friendly packaging. Larger restau-
rants typically do use disposable containers for take-out orders
but not usually polystyrene.
With polystyrene off the table, businesses can still use con-
tainers made from renewable resources like paper, cardboard,
corn starch, potato starch and sugarcane.
A polystyrene ban would also give the city credit toward
meeting its required Municipal Regional Stormwater Permit lit-
ter reduction goal of 40 percent less garbage in waterways by
July 1, 2014 and 100 percent by 2022.

Family Health Clinic in East Palo Alto. The programs been
offered at eight sites since September resulting in 180 children
served. Almost two-thirds of those treated didnt need a refer-
ral for more service, she said. Of those who did need to be
referred for additional help, they were able to work with
Estrada who supported them throughout the process. Services
will be expanded to 12 sites this year.
Since starting the program, Thakur has noticed children are
more comfortable coming to get further help. Also, problems
can often be addressed faster and in the same day, she said.
San Mateo County is one of 10 counties in California taking
part in the program. Locally, its offered to children in the
Head Start program through a partnership between First 5 San
Mateo County, The Institute for Human and Social
Development, Ravenswood Family Health Center and Pacic
Center for Special Care.
East Palo Alto Mayor Ruben Abrica said by offering health
services and providing preschool for all local children, the city
will be able to create a strong foundation for its youth.
State Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, said the program
expands health care opportunities to vulnerable communities,
explores the latest in technology and leverages public/private
partnerships.

in. The total amount of the unpaid bal-
ance with interest thereon of the obliga-

DERS If you are considering bidding on
this property lien, you should understand
that there are risks involved in bidding at
a trustee auction. You will be bidding on
a lien, not on a property itself. Placing
the highest bid at a trustee auction does
not automatically entitle you to free and
clear ownership of the property. You
should also be aware that the lien being
auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you
are the highest bidder at the auction, you
are or may be responsible for paying off
all liens senior to the lien being auctioned
off, before you can receive clear title to
the property. You are encouraged to in-
vestigate the existence, priority, and size
of outstanding liens that may exist on this
property by contacting the county record-
er's office or a title insurance company,
either of which may charge you a fee for
this information. If you consult either of
these resources, you should be aware
that the lender may hold more than one
mortgage or deed of trust on the proper-
ty. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER
The sale date shown on this notice of
sale may be postponed one or more
times by the mortgagee, beneficiary,
trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section
2924g of the California Civil Code. The
law requires that information about trust-
ee sale postponements be made availa-
ble to you and to the public, as a courte-
sy to those not present at the sale. If you
wish to learn whether your sale date has
been postponed, and, if applicable, the
rescheduled time and date for the sale of
this property, you may call 1-800-281-
8219 or visit this Internet Web site
www.recontrustco.com, using the file
number assigned to this case 12-

ments that are very short in duration or
that occur close in time to the scheduled
sale may not immediately be reflected in
the telephone information or on the Inter-
net Web site. The best way to verify
postponement information is to attend
the scheduled sale. DATED:
