After near-stall, economy up
Consumers shrug off government cuts, but economists say unemployment, slow growth creating drag
By Martin Crutsinger
and Christopher S. Rugaber
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON After nearly stalling in
late 2012, the American economy quickened
its pace early this year despite deep govern-
ment cutbacks. The strongest consumer
spending in two years fueled a 2.5 percent
annual growth rate in the January-March
quarter.
The question is: Can it last?
Federal spending cuts, higher Social
Security taxes and cautious businesses are
likely to weigh on the economy in coming
months.
Most economists say they think growth, as
measured by the gross domestic product, is
slowing in the April-June quarter to an annual
rate of about 2 percent. Many predict growth
will hover around that subpar level for the rest
of the year.
Fridays Commerce Department report on
GDP showed that consumers stepped up
spending at an annual rate of 3.2 percent in
the January-March quarter the biggest such
jump since the end of 2010. Growth was also
helped by businesses, which responded to the
greater demand by rebuilding their stockpiles.
And home construction rose further.
Government spending sank at a 4.1 percent
annual rate, led by another deep cut in
defense.
Sal Guatieri, senior economist at BMO
Capital Markets, foresees more improvement
in the second half of the year.
The second-half acceleration will be sup-
ported by improved household nances, pent-
up demand for autos and the ongoing recov-
ery in housing, Guatieri says. We are seeing
significant housing-related consumer pur-
chases in such areas as furniture.

When a Burlingame code
enforcement officer visited her
home, Kathleen Gorman had no
idea she was over the legal limit. For
cats. In fact, she had no idea there
was a cat and dog limit.
In Burlingame, a household may
have up to three cats and two dogs
without a permit. The City Council
can issue a permit to allow a resi-
dent to keep any combination of cats
and dogs, up to ve animals.
Gormans life is lled with ani-
mals. She owns several cats, fosters
feral kittens for the Peninsula
Humane Society and works for an
animal supply company.
Gorman is constantly talking
cats with her clients and neighbors.
I talk cats and talk cats, and
sometimes I get them adopted, she
said.
For the past six years, her foster-
ing has helped more than 100 kit-
tens nd homes, she said.
I dont have any kids, she said.
This is just my way to give back,
what can I say.

million gallons. In 1909, 30 million gal-
lons were produced. In 1919, 150 million
gallons were made and in 1986, 800 mil-
lion gallons of ice cream were produced.

A Burlingame mans claim that he fatally
beat his roommate after the 70-year-old man
demanded oral sex is ludicrous because of
the victims age, physical ailments and a blad-
der so full at his time of death it was distend-
ed, a prosecutor told jurors during closing
arguments Friday.
But Lawrence Hoffmans defense team said
not only did Joseph Consentino proposition
their client but it released pent-up rage over
childhood sexual abuse that ended with him
dead on the oor of their shared apartment and
their client on trial.
The issue is what happened and what was
his mental state when this happened, defense
attorney May Mar said.
Mar told the jury her client, while responsi-
ble for Consentinos Dec. 5, 2011 death, was
acting in perceived self-defense.
This is a homicide. This is a manslaughter.
This is not a murder, Mar said, adding
Hoffman never would have foreseen himself
sitting at the defense table for having killed
somebody.
Hoffman, 65, is charged with murder, the
use of a deadly weapon and causing great bod-
ily injury of a person over
age 60. The jury was also
instructed in the lesser
degrees of homicide.
Consentino, who had no
defensive wounds, died
from a massive hole in the
back of his head which
prosecutor Al Serrato said
was caused by at least nine
separate blows.
The men werent quite
friends but Hoffman
moved into Consentinos Garden Drive apart-
ment in 2011 to make ends meet and help
Consentino sell off his late wifes belongings.
Serrato said the two immediately butted heads
and argued that Hoffman felt Consentino
demeaned his family so he committed a hor-
ribly violent death on a man who posed no
harm to him.
According to the defense, Consentino
clad only in his boxers brandished a mallet
and demanded oral sex from a surprised
Hoffman who had a towel in his mouth
because of panic attack-induced gagging.
Hoffman allegedly snapped because as a
child he was sodomized by his father while
forced to bark like a dog, then grabbed the
mallet and struck Consentino twice.
Hoffman also allegedly was abused by a
scout leader and sexually abused his own
younger brother.
Serrato asked jurors not to fall for Hoffmans
story or give him sympathy. Serrato said
Consentino had physical problems including
emphysema and cardiac issues, atrophied testi-
cles and a full bladder none of which
sounded like a man in the mood for sex espe-
cially from a gagging man, he said.
The claim is so ludicrous that if this wasnt
a murder trial it would be laughable, he said.
Serrato told jurors if they believed Hoffman
was responsible for the mallets presence they
had to convict him of murder and pointed out
that despite the claim the tool was for disman-
tling metal bookshelves two such pieces of fur-
niture were photographed in the apartment.
After Consentinos death, Hoffman covered
the body with three blankets, left an air fresh-
ener nearby and ed rst to Reno, then back to
San Francisco where he confessed to a friend
and ultimately Glendale where he was appre-
hended.
Serrato said cleanup of the scene and cover-
ing of the body to mask the smell shows clear
thinking that proves premeditation.
Hoffman remains in custody without bail.

Prison time for former
college IT directors theft
The San Mateo County Community College
Districts former information technology
director was sentenced to three years in prison
Friday for misusing the agencys credit card to
buy $350,000 worth of goods later sold online.
Bradley John Witham, 43, faced up to ve
years and his defense sought two. Witham
pleaded no contest to four felonies including
three counts of forging documents and one
count of embezzlement of public funds by a
public ofcial. He also admitted taking more
than $65,000.
Prosecutors say, between June 2006 and
June 2012, Witham used the districts credit
card to buy dozens of electronic items like
computers, hard drives and memory sticks
online which were then resold on eBay and
Craigslist. Witham also submitted for reim-
bursement three forged receipts for iPhones
and a bunk bed set.
When Witham resigned from the district and
headed to Australia, former worker Mark
Anthony Bustos hacked into the vice chancel-
lors email and learned of the investigation by
the District Attorneys Ofce. Bustos then
alerted Witham, according to prosecutors.
For his role, Bustos was sentenced to 90
days in jail.

Missing 80-year-old
woman found safe
A missing 80-year-old woman has been
located in good condition in the Burlingame
hills, the San Mateo County Sheriffs Ofce
said Friday morning.
Kilsun Hart, was located Friday morning by
a resident along the road in the area of Canyon
Road and Tiptoe Lane in the Burlingame hills,
according to deputies.
It is unclear where she spent the night, but
her clothes are covered in debris from the
ground, ofcials said.
Hart was reported missing Thursday from
her Burlingame home at 3030 Canyon Road by
her daughter, ofcials said.
When her daughter returned from work at
about 3 p.m., she discovered her mother was
gone, deputies said.
Hart has been reported missing before. She
was found on El Camino Real in Burlingame
on that occasion.
Ex stalking brings jail, probation
A 29-year-old woman accused of stalking
her former boyfriend over the Internet when
she was a Stanford University student a few
years ago was sentenced Friday to four months
in jail followed by three years of probation.
Erin Nicole Umberg faced up to six months
after pleading no contest to disrupting comput-
er services and two misdemeanor counts of
altering computer data. In addition to the time,
Umberg is also prohibited from having or
using a computer.
In July 2007, Umberg allegedly stalked her
former boyfriend both online and in person,
including hacking into his computer to send
harassing emails, which caused signicant
harm to him. Umberg was also accused of set-
ting up fake accounts on social media and dat-
ing sites.
She is the daughter of Tom Umberg, a for-
mer assemblyman who is now on the
California High-Speed Rail Authority Board.
He spoke at her sentencing hearing as did the
victims.
Umberg is free from custody on her own
recognizance and must surrender to jail May
25.
Day-care owners
arraigned in swaddling case
Two sisters facing charges that they endan-
gered the lives of infants at their Northern
California day-care center by binding them too
tightly in swaddling blankets didnt intend to
hurt the babies and contend they didnt commit
child abuse, their attorney said.
Timothy Rien spoke Thursday, as Nazila
Sharaf and Lida Sharaf were arraigned in an
Alameda County courtroom on three counts of
felony child abuse and neglect and four counts
of misdemeanor child abuse and neglect.
Neither woman entered a plea.
Swaddling is a technique used on babies in
which a caregiver wraps the infant snugly. The
idea is to resemble the womb and comfort the
child. When done correctly, swaddling can be
an effective technique to help calm infants and
promote sleep, according to the American
Academy of Pediatrics.
Police allege Nazila Sharaf, 35, and Lida
Sharaf, 33, wrapped up seven babies between
the ages of 7 months and 1 year at their pre-
school in Livermore too tightly like a boa
constrictor, impairing their ability to move
and breathe comfortably.

SACRAMENTO The secretary of states
ofce stood by its decision Friday to deny a
request by a coalition of good government
groups, research organizations and newspapers
to change the way it presents campaign nance
data online.
The groups wanted the states top elections
ofcial to improve the accessibility of public
information. Shannan Velayas, a spokeswoman
for Secretary of State Debra Bowen, said mak-
ing the entire campaign nance database,
known as Cal-Access, available for download
on one spreadsheet every day would involve
writing new code on a system that is very old.
Bowen sent a letter dated April 19 denying a
request from MapLight, California Common
Cause and others to make raw campaign nance
and lobbying data on its website available for
download on one le each day. Instead, the sec-
retary of states ofce creates CD-ROMs upon
request and sends them by mail for $5, or the
public has to search online by each candidate,
group or committee.
The coalition told Bowen that making the
small format change on the states Cal-Access
database would increase transparency and better
fulll the secretary of states mission to improve
campaign nance disclosure.
It would save precious state funds, as your
ofce would no longer have to support the staff
necessary to process public records requests for
copies of the database, the groups letter stated.
But Bowen expressed concern about privacy
laws and suggested the change was not cost-
effective.
Dan Newman, president of MapLight, which
is based in Berkeley and examines the inuence
of money in politics, said in an interview Friday
that he understands that Cal-Access is 14 years
old, but that doesnt mean the legacy system
needs to be changed to fulll the request. He
said his group has offered to write a software
script to redact private information such as
street addresses and bank account numbers to
ensure privacy.
As anyone who has ever deleted a column in
a spreadsheet program knows, its simple to
remove unwanted data from a database before
releasing it, he said. No one has to take a can
of Wite-Out and redact the data.
The letter was signed by Common Cause,
which advocates for government transparency,
as well as the Los Angeles Times and The
Sacramento Bee.
Velayas declined to say whether Bowen
would accept MapLights offer for a free soft-
ware script. She said the secretary of states
ofce is automating business lings and build-
ing a statewide voter registration database with
a limited information technology staff.

Mailmans
accomplice
sentenced
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A Daly City man who fraudulently used
credit cards stolen from mail by a postal
worker last fall was sentenced Friday to three
years and four months in
custody for commercial
burglary, identity theft
and possession of stolen
property.
Marlo Lacsamana must
also not possess the per-
sonal information of oth-
ers and pay restitution to
the victims, Target,
Patelco, Discover and
American Express.
Lacsamanas term is split with two years in
jail followed by 16 months of supervision.
He was offered the chance to spend 16
months in residential treatment followed by
two years supervision instead but declined.
Lacsamana is the last of three men who
took deals for accepting stolen mail from
postal worker Romeo Natan. Most of the
mail thefts occurred in November 2012 in
the Devonshire Avenue area of San Carlos
and Natan was pinpointed as the culprit after
being caught on a surveillance video at the
Target store in Colma using stolen cards. An
accomplice caught using a different stolen
card implicated him as the source. A Daly
City police search of Natans San Bruno
home reportedly turned up bags of undeliv-
ered mail, including more than 2,000 pieces
in a storage closet and more than 1,000
pieces in the trunk of his car.
Prosecutors say Natan gave credit cards to
three men including Lacsamana.

Working individually on their classroom iPads, Notre Dame High School students are able to
move through the pre-recorded video at their own pace, and can get one-on-one help from
teachers when needing further help or explanations. Math teachers Courtney York and Mike
Santos both piloted programs at Notre Dame High School this year,using the newly acquired
classroom sets of iPads to deliver the material. Class sets of iPads are also being utilized
instructionally at Notre Dame in many other departments,including science,world language
and social sciences. Notre Dame teachers have been actively researching instructional apps
and training with the iPads since summer 2012.At a recent teacher in-service,several teachers
enthusiastically demonstrated numerous ways to integrate iPad technology.

WASHINGTON President
Barack Obama vowed Friday to
join Planned Parenthood in fighting
against what he said are efforts by
states to turn womens health back
to the 1950s, before the Supreme
Court legalized abortion nation-
wide, and singled out the GOP-
governed states of North Dakota
and Mississippi for criticism.
When politicians try to turn
Planned Parenthood into a punch-
ing bag, theyre not just talking
about you, Obama said, becoming
the first sitting president to address
the abortion-rights group in per-
son. Theyre talking about the
millions of women who you
serve.
Obama asserted that an assault
on womens rights is underway
across the country, with bills intro-
duced in more than 40 states to
limit or ban abortion or restrict
access to birth control or other
services.
The fact is, after decades of
progress, theres still those who
want to turn back the clock to poli-
cies more suited to the 1950s than
the 21st century, he said. And
theyve been involved in an orches-
trated and historic effort to roll
back basic rights when it comes to
womens health.

WASHINGTON Proceeding
cautiously, President Barack Obama
insisted on Friday that any use of
chemical weapons by Syria would
change his calculus about U.S.
military involvement in the 2-year-
old civil war but said too little
was known about a pair of likely
sarin attacks to order aggressive
action now.
The presidents public response to
the latest intelligence reected the
lack of agreement in Washington
over whether to use Americas mili-
tary to intervene in the civil war,
and if so, how. But lawmakers in
both parties expressed concern that
inaction could embolden Syrian
President Bashar Assad and perhaps
other countries including North
Korea and Iran.
U.S. officials declared on
Thursday that the Syrian govern-
ment probably had used chemical
weapons twice in March, newly
provocative acts in the civil war that
has killed more than 70,000 people
and displaced hundreds of thou-
sands more. The U.S. assessment
followed similar conclusions from
Britain, France, Israel and Qatar
key allies eager for a more aggres-
sive response to Syrian conict.
Obama, in his first comments
about the new intelligence disclo-
sure, said Friday, For the Syrian
government to utilize chemical
weapons on its people crosses a line
that will change my calculus and
how the United States approaches
these issues. He has issued similar
warnings for months, saying the use
of chemical weapons or transfer of
the stockpiles to terrorists would
cross a red line and carry enor-
mous consequences.
Seeking to show resolve, Obama
added Friday that Ive meant what
I said.

Bomb kills nine near
Pakistan political party office
KARACHI, Pakistan A bomb exploded
on Friday near the ofce of a main Pakistan
political party that had received threats from
the Taliban, killing nine people in the latest
attack in the run-up to next months parlia-
mentary election.
As the election approaches, militant groups
have increasingly been attacking liberal, secu-
lar parties such as the one targeted Friday in
the port city of Karachi. The onslaught has
forced many of the parties to change their
campaign strategy and has raised questions
about whether the vote can be considered
valid if some mainstream parties cant proper-
ly take part.
Police ofcer Zafar Bukhari said the bomb
was planted on a motorbike near the Awami
National Party ofce. Nine people, including
four children, were killed and 24 other people
were wounded, he said.
Pakistani Taliban spokesman Ahsanullah
Ahsan claimed responsibility for the attack in
a telephone call to the Associated Press from
an undisclosed location.
Hitlers food taster
tells of poisoning fears
BERLIN They were feasts of sublime
asparagus laced with fear. And for more
than half a century, Margot Woelk kept her
secret hidden from the world, even from her
husband. Then, a few months after her 95th
birthday, she revealed the truth about her
wartime role: Adolf Hitlers food taster.
Woelk, then in her mid-twenties, spent two
and a half years as one of 15 young women
who sampled Hitlers food to make sure it
wasnt poisoned before it was served to the
Nazi leader in his Wolfs Lair, the heavily
guarded command center in what is now
Poland, where he spent much of his time in
the nal years of World War II.
He was a vegetarian. He never ate any
meat during the entire time I was there,
Woelk said of the Nazi leader.

BOSTON Boston Marathon bombing
suspect Dzhohkar Tsarnaev was moved from a
hospital to a federal prison medical center
while FBI agents shifted the focus of their
investigation to how the deadly plot was
pulled off and searched for evidence Friday in
a landll near the college he attended.
Tsarnaev, 19, was taken from Beth Israel
Deaconess Medical Center, where he was
recovering from a throat wound and other
injuries suffered during an attempt to elude
police last week, and was transferred to the
Federal Medical Center Devens, about 40
miles from Boston, the U.S. Marshals Service
said. The facility, at a former Army base,
treats federal prisoners.
Its where he should be; he doesnt need to
be here anymore, said Beth Israel patient
Linda Zamansky, who thought his absence
could reduce stress on bombing victims who
have been recovering at the hospital under
tight security.
The FBIs investigation
of the April 15 bombing
has turned from identica-
tion and apprehension of
suspects to piecing togeth-
er details of the plot,
including how long the
planning took, how it was
carried out and whether
anyone else knew or was
involved.
A federal law enforcement official not
authorized to speak on the record about the
investigation told the Associated Press on the
condition of anonymity on Friday that the FBI
was gathering evidence regarding everything
imaginable.
FBI agents picked through a landll near
the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth,
where Tsarnaev was a sophomore. FBI
spokesman Jim Martin would not say what
investigators were looking for.
An aerial photo in Fridays Boston Globe
showed a line of more than 20 investigators,
all dressed in white overalls and yellow boots,
picking over the garbage with shovels or
rakes.
U.S. officials, meanwhile, said that the
bombing suspects mother had been added to
a federal terrorism database about 18 months
before the deadly attack a disclosure that
deepens the mystery around the Tsarnaev
family and marks the rst time American
authorities have acknowledged that Zubeidat
Tsarnaeva was under investigation before the
tragedy.
The news is certain to fuel questions about
whether President Barack Obamas adminis-
tration missed opportunities to thwart the
marathon bombing, which killed three people
and wounded more than 260.
Tsarnaev is charged with joining with his
older brother, now dead, in setting off the
shrapnel-packed pressure-cooker bombs. The
brothers are ethnic Chechens from Russia
who came to the United States about a decade
ago with their parents. Investigators have said
it appears that the brothers were angry about
the U.S. wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

MOSCOW The patients of the small psy-
chiatric hospital in a Russian village were
asleep or under sedation as the clock neared 2
a.m. The windows were barred and the nearest
firefighters were miles away, with some
impeded by rough roads and others not able to
cross a nearby canal.
When a blaze broke out and spread through
the wooden rafters, all of this made for a pre-
scription for tragedy: 38 people died and only
three escaped.
The one-story brick-and-wood hospital
building that caught re long before dawn
Friday housed patients with severe mental dis-
orders, Health Ministry ofcials said. The re
started in a wooden annex, emergency author-
ities said, and then spread to the 1950s main
brick building, which had wooden beams.
Health Minister Veronika Skvortsova said
half of the patients took sedatives at night. She
insisted the patients werent tied to their beds
and were not given any medication that would
leave them unconscious and unable to escape.
At least 29 of the dead were burned alive,
federal Investigative Committee spokes-
woman Irina Gumennaya said.
Fire trucks took about an hour to reach the
scene, coming from a town 50 kilometers (30
miles) away and struggling over roads in poor
condition. Fireghters from a slightly nearer
town also were dispatched, but found that a
ferry crossing a canal near the hospital was
out of service because of high water.
Investigators said the 38 dead included 36
patients and two doctors. They said a nurse
managed to escape and save one patient, while
another patient got out on his own. The
Emergencies Ministry also posted a list of the
patients indicating they ranged in age from 20
to 76. Gumennaya told Russian news agencies
that most of the people died in their beds.
Moscow region Governor Andrei Vorobyev
said some of the hospital windows were
barred. Gumennaya cited the surviving nurse
as saying that the doors inside the hospital
werent locked.
Investigators said they are looking at viola-
tions of re regulations and a short circuit as
possible causes for the blaze that engulfed the
hospital in the Ramensky settlement, about 85
kilometers (50 miles) north of Moscow.

OPINION 9
Coastside fire board
Editor,
Bill Silverfarbs article, Coast re
board to transition in the April 22 edi-
tion of the Daily Journal, gives no cred-
ibility to the coastside voters who
chose overwhelmingly to oust three re
board members who consistently
ignored their constituents, violated their
own policy manual, displayed a consis-
tent lack of leadership and squandered
hundreds of thousands of dollars on a
personal agenda to create their own
standalone re department. That this
was in opposition to the conclusions
and recommendations of at least three
civil grand juries and an outside con-
sultant group was irrelevant.
That such stand-alones have an
increasingly poor track record of suc-
cess in California was irrelevant. That
this was a agrant example of union
poaching was irrelevant. This was a
recall initiated and run by coastside res-
idents who sat and observed a year of
board meetings where public speakers
were insulted and consistently ignored,
re service providers were publicly
demeaned, evidence and documentation
were discounted and ignored and all
board motions and actions were decid-
ed by a bloc of three directors who
stuck together and never once acted
individually. Four members of the Half
Moon Bay City Council joined them
supporting local cronies and making
robocalls to residents throughout the
district. The Half Moon Bay Review
said this was the worst decision making
ever by a local board, then told the vot-
ers to vote no in the interests of
democracy. This newspaper recom-
mended voting no, accepting opinion
over documented facts.
Fortunately, democracy did prevail.
Voters read the documentation and
watched the videos for themselves.
They did not buy the lies and the hype.
They voted to install three new direc-
tors who will represent the people and
will keep the best re service the coast-
side has had in years, a proven fact.

W
hile education reformers in
Sacramento continue to
obsess about how easy it
should be to re teachers and how
important tests should be in evaluating
their performance, almost no one is
talking about the central issue of what
students are supposed to be learning in
the near future.
A sea change is coming to schools in
California, one of the 45 states that
have adopted what are known as the
Common Core State Standards. The
idea of the new standards is to bring
some consistency to education from
state to state, and to better prepare stu-
dents for the work theyll be expected
to do in college and their jobs. Though
the Obama administration couldnt
legally force new standards on states, it
threatened to deny grant money under
the federal Race to the Top program if
they didnt create and adopt common
standards.
The standards are designed to push
students to deeper levels of understand-
ing and analysis. They call on teachers
to cover fewer topics but to delve into
each more thoroughly, and they dis-
courage rote learning in favor of fuller
understanding of the material. In math,
for example, it might be less important
for students to give the correct answer
to a problem than to be able to describe
the best process for reaching the solu-
tion. In California, the curriculum stan-
dards and the new tests that go with
them are supposed to be implemented
in the 2014-15 school year.
Thats soon, and at the rate California
is going, it wont be ready. The core
curriculum standards lay out extensive
guidelines about the knowledge and
skills that students should master in
each grade of public school, in both
reading and math. But there are many
complicated steps involved in turning
those guidelines into a day-to-day edu-
cational plan for California schools,
and the state isnt even close to halfway
through them. It hasnt gured out how
to go about training teachers, and wont
begin to adopt new textbooks a slow
and politically rancorous process for
at least two years.
Whats more, common core is expen-
sive, requiring extensive new training
for teachers, new textbooks and com-
puters on which the new tests must be
taken. Its unclear where the state will
nd the money.
At the rate the state is going, teachers
will end up being trained before the
English curriculum is even in place,
and instruction would start before the
new textbooks are in anyones hands.
Yet if the school reform movement has
its way, teachers will be evaluated in
part based on how well their students
do on the very different standardized
tests that go with the new curriculum.
Reecting the concern that teachers
throughout the state have been express-
ing, one California teacher recently
tweeted that within a couple of years,
we start testing on standards were not
teaching with curriculum we dont have
on computers that dont exist.
Teachers justiably fret that theyre
being set up for failure. Schools worry
about nding the money to make all
this happen.
The situation led Arun Ramanathan,
director of the reform organization
Education Trust-West, to write a recent
commentary for an education website
saying: Is this the best time for
reformers to focus so much attention in
Sacramento on teacher evaluation legis-
lation incorporating student growth? Or
should we be working to focus policy-
makers on the investments necessary to
prepare all teachers to successfully
teach the new standards in order to
accelerate student growth?
Considering that one of Education
Trust-Wests major objectives has been
to include test scores in teacher evalua-
tions, these are remarkable and cru-
cially important questions.
Experts are divided over the value of
the new curriculum standards, which
might or might not lead students to the
deeper reading, reasoning and writing
skills that were intended. But on this
much they agree: The curriculum will
fail if it isnt carefully implemented
with meaningful tests that are aligned
with what the students are supposed to
learn. Legislators and education leaders
should be putting more emphasis on
helping teachers get ready for common
core and giving them a signicant voice
in how it is implemented. And if the
state cant get the right elements in
place to do that by 2014, it would be
better off delaying the new curriculum
a couple of years and doing it right,
rather than allowing common core to
become yet another educational ash in
the pan that never lives up to its prom-
ise.
Curriculum crunch for California
GOP and immigrants
By Chuck McDougald
W
here are you from? I dont mean what part of
the Bay Area. I mean where did your parents
come from, and their parents before them. Was
it Ireland or Poland, Germany or Italy,
Japan or China or India or Vietnam? Or
points in between?
The reason I ask is that our country
was built by immigrants. Unless you are
a Native American, your ancestors or
maybe you immigrated here from
abroad. They arrived maybe a few years
ago or a few decades ago, but not much
longer than a century or two.
With few exceptions, they suffered. A
century ago the notation, No Irish Need Apply was com-
mon in ads, whether for jobs or even classified items for
sale. Are you old enough to remember when Italian
Americans were called a name that stood for without
papers, and reminds us that the confusion over illegal
immigrants is not a new one. And Japanese were put into
internment camps, even if they were American citizens.
Even so, nearly every one of them prospered in America.
They worked hard hours at whatever jobs they could find,
under terrible conditions, but always committed to a better
future for their children. There was little to call a safety
net in those days, but they persevered, and they succeed-
ed.
Today, they are every bit Americans and their children
are leaders in business, education and government. Here in
Silicon Valleys tech companies, most of us hardly even
notice where an engineer came from, and we care more
about their software than their heritage. And all of us have
benefited from their great contributions.
So, considering the indisputable record of our countrys
debt to immigrants, why are todays Hispanic immigrants
not making the progress that others have? Whats different
this time?
We in the GOP believe that whats different is that
Hispanics had the misfortune of arriving in large numbers
at a time when liberal policies prevail. If you arent chosen
for a job or a school opening, theres always some politi-
cian happy to say its because of discrimination. No need to
suffer the drudgery of learning English; well mandate that
your classroom be bilingual. If your childs teacher is a
bad one, well protect the teacher, not your child. And there
are fewer jobs where you can gain a foothold because the
explosion of laws and regulations comes with mountains of
job-killing paperwork that crushes small business.
Todays more compassionate approach has much thats
good, and no one wants to go back to sweatshops and suf-
fering. But it has the unhappy effect of discouraging
unskilled immigrants, predominantly Hispanics today, from
learning and building and preparing their children to pros-
per in this country. Strange as it may seem, immigrants
themselves are the ones who suffer most from the enlight-
ened liberal policies.
Republicans want every immigrant to succeed. We know
that immigrants who come here, become Americans and
thrive, are what makes America exceptional, and will be an
even bigger part of what drives success in this new century.
Which is why were so profoundly saddened to see
Hispanics seduced by liberal policies that seem to make
life easier today, instead of taking the harder path to build a
strong and solid foundation for their future as Americans.
Yes, we know that some Republicans and some
Democrats too would like to severely restrict immigra-
tion (and not only of Hispanics). But notwithstanding what
some would have you believe, that is not the platform of
our party. And notwithstanding what some would have you
believe, we see nothing good about 19th century sweat-
shops or 20th century internment camps. We know immi-
grants built America and will always be a key part of what
makes us special.
Hispanics and all immigrants have a choice today.
They can take the easy, liberal road, but always be limited
to a rung below full participation. Or they can take the
harder road to prepare their children to be the leaders of
tomorrow, and earn their rightful place among all
Americans.
Those who choose the latter would do well to consider
the GOP as the party that truly shares their hopes and
dreams.
Chuck McDougald is on his second term as San Mateo
Republican Party chair. In 2008, he was head of the
California Veterans Coalition for U.S. Sen. John McCains
presidential campaign. In 2010, he was chair of Volunteers
for Carly Fiorinas senatorial campaign.

NEW YORK The stock market
stalled Friday after the U.S. economy
didnt grow as much as hoped and earn-
ings from a handful of big companies
failed to rev up investors.
The economy grew at a 2.5 percent
annual rate in the first three months of
the year, the government said. That was
below the 3.1 percent forecast by econ-
omists.
The shortfall reinforced the percep-
tion that the economy is grinding,
rather than charging, ahead. Investors
have also been troubled by reports in
the last month of weaker hiring, slower
manufacturing and a drop in factory
orders. Many economists see growth
slowing to an annual rate of around 2
percent a year for the rest of the year.
U.S. government bonds, where
investors seek safety, rose after the
report.
There are some concerns as we head
into the summer, said JJ Kinahan,
chief derivatives strategist for TD
Ameritrade. In the last three weeks,
weve seen numbers that werent exact-
ly what youd love to see.
Corporate earnings this week have
also contained worrisome signs. Many
companies missed revenue forecasts
from financial analysts, even as they
reported higher quarterly profits. For
example, Goodyear Tire slipped 3.3
percent to $12.51 Friday after revenue
fell short of analysts estimates, hurt by
lower global tire sales.
Of the companies that have reported
earnings so far, 70 percent have exceed-
ed Wall Streets expectations, compared
with a 10-year average of 62 percent,
according to S&P Capital IQ. But 43
percent have missed revenue estimates.
Just over half of the companies in the
S&P 500 have reported quarterly
results.
The S&P 500 index dropped 2.92
points, or 0.2 percent, to close at
1,582.24.
The Dow rose 11.75 points, or 0.1
percent, to 14,712.55. The index got a
big lift from Chevron. Profit for the
U.S. oil company beat expectations of
financial analysts in the first quarter,
pushing shares up 1.3 percent to
$120.04.
Three stocks fell for every two that
rose on the New York Stock Exchange.
Both indexes were up for the week
and remain slightly below their all-time
highs reached April 11. The Dow index
rose 1.1 percent this week while the
S&P gained 1.7 percent.
The market has been bolstered by the
Federal Reserves easy money policy.
The disappointing growth figure for the
economy will ensure that the Fed sticks
with its stimulus policy, providing sup-
port for stocks, said Peter Cardillo,
chief market economist at Rockwell
Global Capital.
The economic data that weve been
getting points to no early exit for the
Feds stimulus, Cardillo said.
The Nasdaq composite fell 10.72
points to 3,279.26, a decline of 0.3 per-
cent. The index is 2.3 percent higher
this week.
The tech-heavy index has lagged the
Dow and the S&P 500 this year, but it
led the way higher this week, boosted
by Microsoft. The software giant,
which makes up 5.3 percent of the
Nasdaq, recorded its biggest weekly
gain since January of last year up 6.8
percent. It reported earnings April 19
that beat Wall Street expectations. The
company also began an aggressive push
into the computer tablet market.
Apple, the largest stock in the
Nasdaq, also had a good week. The
stock rose 6.8 percent to $417.20, its
best weekly gain since November,
despite posting a decline in quarterly
profit Tuesday. Apple accounts for 7.6
percent of the Nasdaq composite.
Stocks stall on tepid U.S. economic growth
Stocks that moved substantially or traded heavily Friday on the New
York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq Stock Market:
NYSE
VF Corp., down $3.93 at $174.82
The clothing manufacturers rst-quarter net income rose 26 percent,
but its revenue fell short of Wall Street expectations.
DR Horton Inc., up $2.13 at $26.66
The homebuilder said that its scal second-quarter net income nearly
tripled, boosted by the continued housing market recovery.
Alcatel-Lucent S.A., down 2 cents at $1.38
The French telecommunications equipment maker posted a wider-than-
expected loss for the rst quarter as sales nearly stalled.
Nasdaq
Amazon.com Inc., down $19.89 at $254.81
The online retailer said that its net income declined in the rst three
months of the year, even though revenue increased 22 percent.
Baidu Inc., down $7.32 at $85.02
The Chinese search engine reported slower prot growth in its latest
quarter as costs rose sharply and competition intensied.
Coinstar Inc., down 10 cents at $54.93
The Redbox DVD rental kiosk owner said its rst-quarter earnings fell 58
percent, but the results were better than expected.
Micros Systems Inc., down $1.06 at $42.46
The Columbia,Md.-based supplier of cash registers and other technology
for restaurants and hotels issued a weak forecast.

WASHINGTON A bill to require
Internet shoppers to pay sales taxes for
online purchases may be cruising
through the Senate but it will soon hit a
roadblock in the House.
Theres a lot of political difculty
getting through the fog of it looking like
a tax increase, said Rep. Steve
Womack, R-Ark., one of the main spon-
sors of the bill in the House.
The bill would empower states to
reach outside their borders and compel
online retailers to collect state and local
sales taxes for purchases made over the
Internet. Under the bill, the sales taxes
would be sent to the states where a shop-
per lives.
Under current law, states can only
require stores to collect sales taxes if the
store has a physical presence in the state.
As a result, many online sales are essen-
tially tax-free, giving Internet retailers
an advantage over brick-and-mortar
stores.
Womack says the bill is not a tax
increase. Instead, he says, it simply gives
states a mechanism to enforce current
taxes.
In many states, shoppers are required
to pay unpaid sales taxes when they le
state tax returns. But governors com-
plain that few people comply.
The Senate voted 63-30 Thursday to
end debate on the bill, though senators
delayed a nal vote on passage until
May 6, when they return from a week-
long vacation. Opponents hope senators
hear from angry constituents over the
next week, but they acknowledged they
have a steep hill to climb to defeat the
bill in the Senate.

NEW YORK AT&T Inc. is launch-
ing its home security and automation
service in 15 cities Friday, with an eye
toward getting customers hooked on
security cameras, thermostats and locks
they can control from phones and
tablets.
AT&Ts Digital Life packages will
be sold in cellphone stores in markets
including Los Angeles, Chicago, San
Francisco and Miami. The company
plans to roll the offering out to 50 mar-
kets by the end of the year.
The home monitoring and automation
eld is dominated by security rms such
as ADT Corp. Other phone and cable
companies sell security packages, but
AT&T is going further than competitors
by developing its own technology and
selling it nationwide, not just where it
provides local phone service. It has set
up monitoring centers, in Dallas and
Atlanta.
AT&T to sell home automation, security packages
SAN FRANCISCO Facebook CEO
Mark Zuckerberg reaped a gain of nearly
$2.3 billion last year when he exercised
60 million stock options just before the
online social networking leaders initial
public offering.
The windfall detailed in regulatory
documents filed Friday saddled
Zuckerberg, 28, with a massive tax bill.
He raised the money to pay it by selling
30.2 million Facebook Inc. shares for $38
apiece, or $1.1 billion, in the IPO.
Facebooks stock hasnt closed above
$38 since the IPO was completed last
May. The shares gained 71 cents Friday
to close at $26.85.
The 29 percent decline from
Facebooks IPO price has cost
Zuckerberg nearly $7 billion on paper,
based on the 609.5 million shares of com-
pany stock that he owned as of March 31,
according to the regulatory ling.
Facebook CEO reaped $2.3B gain on stock options
Controllers to return; flight delays sway Congress
WASHINGTON Furloughed air trafc controllers will
soon be heading back to work, ending a week of coast-to-
coast ight delays that left thousands of travelers frustrated
and furious.
Unable to ignore the travelers anger, Congress overwhelm-
ingly approved legislation Friday to allow the Federal
Aviation Administration to withdraw the furloughs. The vote
underscored a shift by Democrats who had insisted on erasing
all of this years $85 billion in across-the-board budget cuts,
not just the most publicly painful ones, for fear of losing lever-
age to restore money for Head Start and other programs with
less lobbying clout and popular support.
With President Barack Obamas promised signature, the
measure will erase one of the most stinging and publicly vis-
ible consequences of the budget-wide cuts known as the
sequester.
Fridays House approval was 361-41 and followed the pre-
vious evenings passage by the Senate, which didnt even
bother with a roll call. Lawmakers then streamed toward the
exits and airports for a weeklong spring recess.
Burger King 1Q earnings soar, revenue shrinks
Burger Kings rst-quarter earnings more than doubled
even though revenue fell, as the fast-food chain trimmed sev-
eral restaurant-related expenses.
The Miami-based company had warned earlier this month
that sales at established restaurants were expected to fall dur-
ing the quarter, and they wound up declining 1.4 percent. That
includes a 3 percent drop in the United States and Canada.
Burger King said competition and a strong rst quarter last
year hurt U.S. and Canadian sales comparisons to this years
quarter. But it said sales from those countries rallied in March
due in part to promotions like the $1.29 Whopper Jr.
The company has been adjusting its strategy to focus on
more menu deals like that. McDonalds has been particularly
aggressive in touting its Dollar Menu to boost trafc at a time
when the restaurant industry is barely growing. Wendys also
revamped its value menu recently.

Serra tennis sweeps WCAL awards
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The dream season for the Serra boys tennis
team continues to get better.
The West Catholic Athletic League
announced its Players of the Year Friday and the
Padres swept the awards with Sean
Talmadge taking home Player of the Year hon-
ors, and Joey Simpson and Alex Frank named
Doubles Team of the Year.
The awards come in a season that saw Serra
win its rst WCAL title since 1990 and beat
Central Coast Section powerhouse Bellarmine
College Prep twice in a season.
This was denitely the best year not just
because we won, but because its my last year at
Serra and on the team and as the clich goes, we
went out with a bang, Simpson said.
After we played Bellarmine the rst time,
and we beat them pretty handily, we knew we
had a pretty good dynamic, Frank said of the
award-winning duo. We knew after that match
that we had something special. We kind of rode
that momentum throughout the whole year.
Its a momentum that took the duo to an 18-0
regular-season record. Considering that 2013
was the rst season Frank and Simpson have
played together, the way they found such domi-
nating chemistry on the court in sensational.
Frank is only in his second year of playing dou-
bles while Simpson has overcome a tibia stress
fracture he suffered March of 2012.
Off the court, me and Joey have always been
pretty good friends throughout the four years
that weve been together, Frank said. Sean,
myself and him have always been close off the
court, so once we started playing on the court,
the on the court [chemistry] came easy because
of the relationship off the court. We really bal-
ance each other out well. I think that was the key
to our success.
My biggest strength would probably be my
serve. On my serves, hes able to get a lot of easy
volleys and end the point quickly. And his
strength is his ground strokes, his speed, he hits

SANTA CLARA Tank Carradine repeat-
edly made one thing clear: his right knee has
made a remarkable recovery from November
reconstructive surgery and he expects no long-
term problems that could derail his NFL career.
The San Francisco 49ers selected the defen-
sive end from Florida State with the 40th pick in
the second round of the NFL draft Friday, and
love the versatility he brings to their 3-4 defense
to play several spots in various packages.
My knee feels great. Theres nothing wrong
with my knee, Carradine said on a conference
call. Theres no long-term things that I think
will go wrong with my knee, because Im
healthy.
San Francisco extensively reviewed the 23-
year-old Carradines medical records he had
surgery to repair a torn anterior cruciate liga-
ment at Stanford on Thursday.
General manager Trent Baalke isnt overly
concerned.
Were very condent in what we know of his
condition. Obviously, he was at the combine and
our medical staff took a very close look at him,
Baalke said. The No. 1 thing with Tank is get-
ting him healthy, getting him ready to play.
The 49ers are counting on him emerging as a
consistent contributor in short order. A talented
pass-rusher from both sides of the line,
Carradine could eventually shift to defensive

The race for the Peninsula Athletic
Leagues Bay Division title is getting tighter
and the Menlo-Atherton baseball team kept
itself in contention with a 10-4 win over Half
Moon Bay Friday afternoon in Atherton.
Both the Bears and the Cougars were two
of four teams with 4-5 records going into play
Friday, along with Aragon and Hillsdale.
With the win, M-A remains two games
behind Terra Nova, which beat Hillsdale 3-2
in nine innings to move into rst place in the
standings. The Tigers moved a game ahead of
Carlmont, which was swept this week by
Capuchino.
Theyre all big, said M-A manager Mike
Amoroso of Fridays win. It was a good vic-
tory. (Im) proud of them. Lots of clutch hits.
The Bears are one of the hottest teams in
the PAL right now, having won four of their
last ve.
M-A (5-5 PAL Bay, 15-8 overall) ran into a
bit of a lull in the middle innings against Half
Moon Bay (4-6, 15-9), but the Bears did the
bulk of their damage in the rst three innings
against Cougars starter Pete Richardson, tak-
ing a 7-0 lead after three innings of play.
Reliever Pete Bacich slowed down the Bears
a bit, but they tacked on three more runs in the
bottom of the sixth.
This was one of those games, said Half
Moon Bay manager Steve Terraszas.
[Richardson] was getting the ball up and
when you leave pitches up against a good-hit-
ting team, theyre going to crush it.
That was more than enough offensive sup-
port for M-A starter Erik Amudson, who
pitched a complete game, three-hitter. He
allowed four runs, but none were earned. He
struck out nine Cougars along the way. He
cruised through the rst four innings without
allowing a hit and the only baserunners Half
Moon Bay managed were a pair of hit batters.

OAKLAND Stephen Curry played
through a sprained left ankle to score 29
points and the Golden State Warriors beat the
Denver Nuggets 110-108 on Friday night to
take a 2-1 series lead.
Curry also had 11 assists, Jarrett Jack added
23 points and seven assists, and Harrison
Barnes and Carl Landry each scored 19 points
to help the Warriors rally from 13 points down
in the third quarter. Golden State still had to
sweat out Andre Iguodalas missed 3-pointer
as the buzzer sounded, setting off a gold-con-
fetti celebration throughout the announced
sellout crowd of 19,596.
Ty Lawson had a career playoff-high 35
points to go with 10 assists, and reserve Corey
Brewer scored 16 points as Denver dropped
its second straight game and its grip on the
best-of-seven series.
Game 4 is Sunday night in Oakland.
The teams traded spectacular shots for most
of the game, especially in the closing
moments.
Curry crossed over Kenneth Faried, then
dropped in a high-arching lefty oater. Curry
added another on the next possession only
with his right hand, and this time hitting
almost all net to keep the Warriors up four.
Faried, who nished with 15 points and
seven rebounds, followed with a reverse
layup. Then Barnes hit a difcult pull-up
jumper to put the Warriors in front 104-100.
A few players later, Curry stole the ball
from Andre Miller from behind and then near-
ly dropped in another floater as Wilson
Chandler fouled him. Currys free throws
gave Golden State a 108-102 lead with 1:54
remaining.
After Denver called timeout, Lawsons
layup over Draymond Green started a three-
point play. Denver got a stop before Lawsons
potential-tying 3-pointer hit the front iron and
Curry corralled the rebound but then
missed a layup on the other end.
Twice given a chance to either tie or take the
lead, Denver blew both.
Iguodala got caught in the air trying to make
a pass, Jack batted it away and hit 1 of 2 free

PAL golf turns to championships
50 will compete next week for leagues top honor
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
When the Peninsula Athletic League begins its
boys golf championship next week, everyone
will be chasing a Knight.
The Shoreline Golf Course in Mountain View
will host Day 1 of the PAL championships and
then the action moves to Green Hills in Millbrae
where a new champion will be crowned.
Hillsdales Jeremy Sanchez, a senior, comes in
as the favorite, qualifying rst more than 11
points ahead of the next PAL competitor.
Its certainly a great honor, but Jeremy is the
type of kid that will work that much harder given
the circumstance, said Hillsdale head coach Jon
Ramirez of Sanchezs position to start the cham-
pionships. He wants to continue to compete at
a high level every day and thats what drives
him.
He is the hardest working athlete Ive ever
worked with. Hes the most coachable so you
dont have to worry about having him put in the
time and the work. He wants to succeed.
Sanchez headlines a rst group that includes
two Burlingame Panthers in Jeff Carney and
Matt Tehan. Burlingame captured a share of the
PAL regular season title this season behind their
efforts.
The surprise in Group 1 is young Alex Tinsay-
Roxas, a Mills High School freshman, who
comes in the second qualifying position.
Its quite an accomplishment, said Mills
head coach Erik Andersen.
Andersen said than in the 12 years hes been
around the PAL championships, he cant recall a
freshman ever qualifying as high as Tinsay-
Roxas.
Tinsay-Roxas plays the junior circuit year-
round and thus, isnt necessarily fazed by the
bright lights of something like the PAL champi-
onships. Andersen also said playing away from
Mills home course is a blessing for Tinsay-
Roxas and could be a wild card at the champi-
onships.
Hes a good quality player,Andersen said. I
expect him to be right there at the end. Hes a
very steady player (and) hes very seasoned for
his age.
A lot of eyes will also be on Carlmont, who
along with Burlingame, are co-champions of the
PAL in 2013. Chief among those Scots is senior
Andrew Witt.
Witt is a four-year varsity player and a four-
year PAL tournament qualier. In fact, hes
made the Day 2 cut all four seasons.
I expect with that his experience, hell come
in and play well, said Carlmont head coach Pat
Smith.
With a championship in hand, its no surprise
the top of the qualifying sheet is littered with
Scots; Witt is the best of a quintet that includes
Mason Holman, Jack Carlson, Like Li and
Finigan Tilly. Witt is coming off a 77 at Aptos.
He denitely has the potential to be a top-
four guy, Smith said.
All four have kind of taken turns shooting
well, Smith said. It just depends on who gets
hot and putts the best.
Also with a chance to make some noise is
Matt Tinyo of Menlo-Atherton, who qualied in
the ninth position.
I get the sense that Matt is playing really con-
dently right now, said M-A head coach
Bennett Vaughn. I expect to see him qualify for
CCS as an individual.
The Bears have another horse in Grant
Johnson, a junior, whos key will be consistency
come the championships.
Tinyo is long off the tee and is really coming
into his own as a wedge player.
He always wants to be get better, Vaughn
said. The M-A head coach also mentioned that
Tinyo is coming off his best performance of the
season and thus, heads to Shoreline with
momentum.
He just happens to be playing his best golf at
the tail end of the season.
Like Mills Tinsay-Roxas, another freshman
SAN DIEGO Andrew Cashner pitched six
effective innings and contributed a big hit at the
plate, helping the San Diego Padres beat Tim
Lincecum and the San Francisco Giants 2-1 on
Friday night.
Cashner (1-1) allowed one run and ve hits,
struck out ve and walked one. He retired the last
12 batters he faced, avenging a 2-0 loss to
Lincecum and the Giants last Saturday.
Cashner also picked up his second major
league hit and scored San Diegos rst run in its
two-run third inning. He had a leadoff single to
center and swiped second with two down.
Consecutive singles from Chase Headley and
Carlos Quentin then brought him home with the
tying run.
Headley eventually came home on Yonder
Alonsos base hit, giving the Padres a 2-1 lead.
That was it for San Diego against Lincecum
(2-1), who struck out nine and allowed six hits in
seven innings. The right-hander pitched 6 2-3
innings in his previous victory over the Padres.
Cashner and four relievers combined to retire
19 in a row before Buster Posey singled with one
out in the ninth. Huston Street then struck out
Hunter Pence before Brandon Belt singled to left,
advancing pinch-runner Joaquin Arias to third.
But Brandon Crawford grounded out to second
to end the game, sending Street to his fourth save
in four opportunities.
San Francisco grabbed the lead in the rst
when leadoff batter Angel Pagan used his speed
to manufacture a run. He singled, stole second,
moved to third on a elders choice and scored on
a wild pitch by Cashner.
Padres take down Giants
OAKLAND Wei-Yin Chen pitched eight
strong innings, giving up only two hits to help
the Baltimore Orioles beat the Oakland Athletics
3-0 on Friday night.
Jim Johnson completed the three-hitter by get-
ting the nal three outs for his ninth save. The
Orioles have won seven of their last nine games
while the As have dropped seven of eight.
Chen (2-2) was brilliant not allowing a runner
to reach third base. He struck out ve and
walked two. This was the longest start of Chens
career. Chen went 7 2-3 innings on May 10
against Texas last season.
The Orioles broke a scoreless tie in the sev-
enth inning as J.J. Hardy lead off against Tommy
Milone (3-2) with a single that As right-elder
Josh Reddick bobbled for an error allowing
Hardy to go to second. After an out, Steve
Pearce drove him in with a sharply hit ball past
diving As shortstop Adam Rosales.
Baltimore added two runs in the ninth against
Oakland reliever Ryan Cook on an error and
sacrice y.
Milone gave up six hits and struck out ve
while allowing the unearned run.
The Orioles had chances early but Milone
worked out of trouble.
Milone worked out of a rst-and-third jam
with two outs in the rst inning and continued to
get the critical outs when he needed them. After
he gave up a lead-off double to Pearce in the
fth, Milone retired the next three Orioles bat-
ters to keep it scoreless.
Notes: It was the rst three-error game for the
As this season. . Injured Oakland slugger Yoenis
Cespedes (hand) went 2-for-3 with a three-run
homer and a walk in his second rehab game on
Friday night with Triple-A Sacramento. As
manager Bob Melvin said Cespedes was sched-
uled to play in the eld on Friday night, DH on
Saturday and, if all goes well, will be activated
on Sunday.

No excuses. Jon Jones has had
months, not days, to prepare this time
around for Chael Sonnen.
That doesnt
sound like good
news for Sonnen.
In a bout at
least eight
months in the
making, Jones
will defend his
light heavy-
weight champi-
onship for a fth
time when he ghts Sonnen at UFC
159 Saturday at the Prudential Center.
Jones hasnt lost since he beat
Shogun Rua, also at the Prudential
Center, in March 2011 and has estab-
lished himself 1-2 with Anderson
Silva as the best MMA has to offer.
Jones reign was besmirched only
by his refusal to ght Sonnen on eight
days notice at UFC 151 in September
after contender Dan Henderson was
forced to withdraw because of injury.
Jones didnt want to risk his title
against a last-minute replacement in
Sonnen, so he balked at the ght.
UFC president Dana White was
forced to cancel a pay-per-view show
for the rst time in his tenure, igniting
trash talk between White and Jones
before tempers mellowed and the pro-
motions booming business went on
as usual.
Now, its time to ght in the octa-
gon. Just how Jones likes it.
This ght with Chael, Jones said,
it ties me in with pure peace.
For all his prowess inside the cage,
Jones (17-1) is more mellow when it
comes to pushing ghts.
Sonnens mouth is up there with
some of the greats of pro wrestling
when it comes to cutting promos.
Sonnens never met a microphone or
camera he didnt like and has perfect-
ed the art of the sound bite to hype his
ghts, something his critics say has
gotten him more title ghts than his
record.
Sonnen (28-12-1) co-owns a pizza
place and named a special pie
topped with chicken for Jones.
There was a line on the menu that
told fans to order fast, before our
chicken runs out and we have to can-
cel.
Jones, ahem, wouldnt bite on a vol-
ley.
Focused on his title bout, he refused
to return any bulletin-board quotes
back at Sonnen. Plus, he doesnt need
to mouth off to push a ght.
The thought of going home with-
out my belt, it keeps me angry, Jones
said.
Only Hall of Famer Tito Ortiz has
been more successful in UFC history
at keeping a belt like Jones. Should
Jones win, hed tie Ortiz for most con-
secutive successful title defenses with
ve. After beating Rua, Jones went on
to beat Rampage Jackson, Lyoto
Machida, Rashad Evans and Vitor
Belfort.
Jones said hed like to set the record
of six straight title defenses around
November before crossing weight
classes and moving on to a dream
ght, perhaps a record-payday bout
against someone like Silva.
Sonnens last two losses were
against Silva, including a competitive
ve-round bout in 2010 for the mid-
dleweight championship. His close
calls have kept him in the middle title
picture at two weight classes. But
after ghting Silva, and scouting
Jones, Sonnen said he knows who is
the best of the two.
I think Jon is considerably better
than Anderson, Sonnen said.
Sometimes I hear that I dont deserve
this ght or Im not the right guy, but
then I hear that Anderson could beat
him. Well, youve got to be kidding
me? I stomped Anderson Silva twice.
Jones and Sonnen coached against
each other during the recent season of
The Ultimate Fighter and gained a
new respect for each other.
Well, at least Sonnen did.
He cared a lot about his team,
Sonnen said. He took coaching very
seriously. He was on time every time.
And he inspired a bunch of guys that
really needed it.
Again, UFC will put on a showcase
card in New Jersey while it remains
locked out of New York.
Jones set to finally defend UFC title versus Sonnen

Some trainers would like to
saddle just one horse in the
Kentucky Derby their entire
career.
Todd Pletcher will have
ve. Maybe even a record six.
I have a tremendous appre-
ciation for how difcult the
Kentucky Derby is to win,
said the trainer, whose had
better luck at just about every
other big-money race. Even
if you have the best horse, a
lot of times that doesnt mean
youre going to succeed.
He should know.
He is 1 for 31 in the Derby,
which goes off next Saturday,
and ve times since 2000 the
last-place nisher has been a
horse from his barn.
Three years ago, Pletcher
ended an 0-for-24 skid when
the long shot Super Saver, one
of four horses he entered, won
under a rail-hugging ride by
Calvin Borel. That was the
year Pletcher had the favorite,
Eskendereya, who was forced
to drop out six days before the
Derby with a leg injury. He
also had the horse to beat the
following year, Uncle Mo,
who was scratched with a
stomach ailment on Derby
eve.
Well, just in case, Borel is
back this year and will ride
Pletchers Revolutionary.
A full eld of 20 horses is
expected for the 1 1/4-mile
race when they break from the
gate at Churchill Downs.
You have to have every-
thing go right on the day and
during the race, and get lucky
with the weather, and the
track condition, and all those
things, Pletcher said. But all
that being said we couldnt be
more happy with the cards
that were holding at the
moment.
His ace clearly is
Verrazano, undefeated in four
career starts this year, a stat
that could make him the
favorite. The colt will try to
buck a Derby jinx that has no
horse since Apollo in 1882
winning without racing as a 2-
year-old.
Based on the way the
horse has trained for us all
winter, hes given me the
impression that Ive never
really seen the bottom of him,
so thats very encouraging to
me, Pletcher said.
Besides Verrazano and
Revolutionary, his other
entries include Overanalyze,
Palace Malice and Charming
Kitten.
139th Kentucky
Derby is Pletcher-
dominated affair
NEW YORK NFL
Commissioner Roger Goodell
stressed Friday the leagues
concerns about making its
events safe and secure.
Speaking to the Associated
Press Sports Editors on
Friday, Goodell says the
league is being responsive to
all challenges, and it began
ramping up security with the
draft, which started Thursday
night.
Its always an imperative
for us, Goodell said. We try
to keep all of our fans safe
around any of our events. We
take pride in it.
The leagues initiatives
carry over to the surrounding
areas of stadiums for its game.
Making tailgating safe in sta-
dium parking lots also is of
prime concern for the NFL as
the league looks at it from
the moment fans enter the
parking lots to the time you
leave.
It has been and will be
(emphasized), he added.
The NFL acted quickly in
fortifying security at Radio
City Music Hall of the draft,
which began 10 days after the
Boston Marathon bombings.
Adjustments meant about
20 percent more security per-
sonnel and increased K-9
explosive detective teams on
site for the draft.
Everyone attending, includ-
ing Goodell, was subject to
screenings, including use of
metal detectors and pat-
downs, and searches of per-
sonal property.
Goodell: safety and
security a priority
great volleys. So, he does a lot.
After a couple of matches, we started to
become completely meshed, basically, Simpson
said. And we just started doing very well and
everything just fell into place. It wasnt very real-
ly hard to create that chemistry.
The honors for the three seniors are extra
sweet considering the amount of time and work
theyve invested in the Serra program. All three
made the varsity team as freshmen. And four
years later, theyll graduate as Serras rst
WCAL champions since 1990.
Talmadge is the second in his family to win
the WCALs Player of the Year award follow-
ing in the footsteps of his brother Spencer, a for-
mer CCS champion.
This is a goal of his since his freshman year,
Frank said. I know his brother was the Player of
the Year a couple of times, so its just a big
accomplishment for him and his family and the
team in general. Ive seen him grow as a tennis
player and its really a culmination of all the hard
work he puts in during the off-season (and) just
how much he want to win.
Its denitely fun to watch, Simpson said of
Talmadge. Hes an excellent player and besides
being an excellent player, hes an excellent guy.
Hes really friendly and hes fun to be around
and our friendship has grown through tennis.
Watching him play is fun because hes so good.
Serras Matt Campana also made the All-
WCAL team.
When we came in, Frank said, we didnt
get any respect from any other teams because it
was our coachs rst year too. It was hard to gain
that respect. I think by accomplishing what we
have this year, it just means everything. This
year, not just the seniors, made a determined
effort to really go after it.

TENNIS
franchise and he is heading into the nal year
of his contract.
San Francisco quickly lled another big need
Friday night, trading up to select Rice tight end
Vance McDonald with the 55th selection. The
NFC champions acquired the pick from the
Green Bay Packers, giving up the 61st choice in
the second round and a sixth-round pick at No.
173. San Francisco later pulled off another swap
with the Packers to move up ve spots and
choose Auburn defensive end Corey Lemonier at
88th.
The 49ers lost tight end Delanie Walker,
Vernon Davis backup, to the Titans last month in
free agency
McDonald was surprised to be chosen by the
49ers.
I kind of just had the feeling it was going to be
someone coming out of left eld and grabbing
me up, and thats pretty much what happened
here, he said.
Now, McDonald must prepare for quarterback
Colin Kaepernicks zippy passes, or reballs as
he called them.
Its awesome to know Ill be a part of it, he
said of the offense.
The agile Carradine, known for his quick-burst
ability off the line, played right defensive end in
college.
49ers defensive line coach Jim Tomsula trav-
eled to Carradines hometown of Cincinnati last
week to watch him hold a workout. They also
enjoyed a productive get-to-know-you dinner.
It was a great dinner. We talked about football,
we talked about life as well, Carradine said. He
was able to get to know me as a person and a
player and I was able to get to know him as a
coach. I see myself tting right in and come out
there and learn from that defense.
San Francisco pulled off a trade with
Tennessee on Friday afternoon to give up the
34th choice and move down six slots, also acquir-
ing the Titans seventh-round choice at No. 216
and a third-round pick next year.
A day after trading up to select free safety Eric
Reid with the 18th pick, Baalke addressed anoth-
er need on Day 2. The GM said Thursday he was
prepared to make the pick at 34, or trade it if the
NFC champions received the right offer.
While Carradine hopes to participate in the
teams rookie minicamp next month, he knows
the doctors will make the nal call and he
wants to make sure he is healthy to contribute
right away as a rookie.
Yet Carradine wasnt sure whether teams
would shy away from him considering the knee
issue.
I was able to come back fast, he said. I was
hoping I would go in the second round and teams
would take a chance on me in the second round.
The 6-foot-4, 276-pound Carradine will add
depth and ll voids to a unit following the depar-
tures of nose tackle Isaac Sopoaga and tackle
Ricky Jean Francois in free agency. Carradine
will join a rookie class in Silicon Valley that
includes new free safety Eric Reid, the LSU
defender taken 18th overall Thursday night.
49ERS
throws for a 109-105 lead with 21.5 seconds to
play. Chandler stunned the crowd with a quick
3 from the corner, the Nuggets covered Curry
on the ensuing inbound and Jack was called for
a rare 5-second violation.
Klay Thompson and backup center Festus
Ezeli trapped Lawson off a pick-and-roll, and
Lawson dribbled the ball off his leg and out of
bounds under heavy pressure. Ofcials con-
rmed the play with a video review.
After Barnes made just the second free throw,
Denver inbounded the ball to Iguodala. He took
a few dribbles and heaved a shot from around
half-court, hitting the front iron and letting the
home fans exhale.
Golden State followed up its 64.6 percent
shooting performance the highest in an NBA
playoff game in 22 years during its 131-117
win at Denver on Tuesday night with another
gem betting the Bay Areas basketball party.
The Warriors outshot the Nuggets 52.5 to
46.5 percent and won the rebounding battle for
the third straight game, 42-34.
Ushers and parking lot attendants greeted
fans with welcome to the playoffs. Almost
every fan wore a gold shirt read We are
Warriors on the front, and the 33rd straight
sellout that packed Oracle Arena often yelled so
loud even players had a hard time hearing whis-
tles.
Curry, who wore a large white brace around
both ankles, made 8 of 17 shots and often pro-
vided reason to cheer in his rst home playoff
game. Warriors coach Mark Jackson said he
didnt know if Curry had taken, or would take,
a pain-killing injection as the guard suggested
he might for the rst time in his career.
No matter.
Jackson stuck with his smaller lineup for the
second straight game since David Lee went
down with a season-ending tear of his right hip
exor. Guards Curry, Jack and Thompson start-
ed alongside small forward Barnes and center
Andrew Bogut.
Nuggets coach George Karl countered with
an even smaller lineup for Game 3: forward
Faried started at center in place of struggling big
man Kosta Koufos, Chandler was at power for-
ward, Iguodala at small forward, Evan Fournier
at shooting guard and Lawson at point guard.

Packers sign Rodgers
to $110M contract extension
GREEN BAY, Wis. The Green Bay
Packers gave Aaron Rodgers his opportunity
when 23 other teams passed.
On another late April weekend with the
NFL draft unfolding anew, there was Rodgers
again, expressing his appreciation of the
Packers for their latest sign of faith.
The Packers signed their franchise quarter-
back Friday to a ve-year contract extension
through the 2019 season. The deal, according
to a person with knowledge of the contract
who spoke to the Associated Press on condi-
tion of anonymity because the team has not
released the details, is worth as much as $110
million, with $40 million guaranteed.
Rodgers had two seasons remaining on his
current deal for a total of roughly $20 million.
So this is essentially a seven-year contract,
right there with the $120.6 million that the
Baltimore Ravens gave quarterback Joe
Flacco last month over six years. Judged by
the new part of the deal, Rodgers will be the
highest-paid player in NFL history, with an
average annual salary of $22 million over
those ve seasons.
Locking up Rodgers was a priority for the
Packers, who also reached a long-term exten-
sion with linebacker Clay Matthews this
month worth as much as $66 million over ve
years. The Packers are 53-27 in ve years
with Rodgers as the starter, and he led them to
the Super Bowl title following the 2010 sea-
son.

USOC: 10 cities interested
in hosting 2024 Games
The U.S. Olympic Committee is talking to
10 cities about a possible bid for the 2024
Summer Games, including a joint proposal
from San Diego and Mexican neighbor
Tijuana.
Following failed bids for the 2012 and 2016
Olympics, the USOC sent out letters to 35
American cities in February to gauge interest
in a potential run for 2024.
Were in discussion with about 10 cities
actively now, USOC chief executive Scott
Blackmun said in an interview after speaking

LOCAL SCOREBOARD
The Cougars broke up the no-hitter on a Tom Howell bloop sin-
gle to no-mans-land in center eld. Bacich added a double in the
sixth and a Mike Rupert single in the seventh.
[Amudson] was great, Amoroso said. Eriks a workhorse.
He has great command. That was a normal start for him.
After Amudson retired the Cougars in order to start the game,
the M-A offense wasted little time in putting the pressure on Half
Moon Bay. With one out, Chuck Grose singled to center and Matt
McGary walked. Alex Aguiar followed with a smash that the
Cougars third baseman could not handle. The ball went off his
glove and trickled into shallow left eld, enabling Jordan Long,
who was running for Grose, to score from second, with McGary
coming all the way around from rst to score as well. Brett
Moriarty followed with a RBI single to give the Bears a 3-0 lead.
They added a pair of runs in the second to make it 5-0. Lawson
Joos led off the inning by getting hit by a pitch and then scored
on a Joshua Gabriel triple. Gabriel ared a hit down the right-eld
line and, despite a valiant diving effort, the Half Moon Bay right-
elder came up just short of making a spectacular catch. The ball
bounded by him and Gabriel had a three bagger. He would come
in to score on an Amudson groundout.
M-A increased its lead to 7-0 with two more runs in the third,
with Charlie Cain coming up with a run-scoring double and an
Amudson sacrice y.
Half Moon Bay nally got on the scoreboard in the fth inning,
scoring three unearned runs as the Bears solid defense suffered a
couple of lapses in the inning. Howell led off the inning with his
single to center and Richardson walked, the rst time the Cougars
had two runners on base since the second inning. Following a
strikeout, Henry Fassinger hit a roller to third base, but the throw
to rst was low and skipped by the rst baseman. Howell scored,
Richardson went to third and Fassinger to second. Richardson
then scored on a wild pitch and Fassinger went to third and scored
when Reese Hammerstroms routine y ball to right was dropped,
enabling Fassinger to score the third run of the inning.
M-A came right back with three runs in the bottom of the
frame, with Aguiar driving home a pair with a single to left and a
third run scoring on a Half Moon Bay error.
The Cougars added one more run in the seventh on a Fassinger
groundout, but they could muster no more.
It was a reverse of Wednesday, said Terraszas, referencing
Half Moon Bays 10-2 win over M-A. Were a different team on
the road. We need to get off to a faster start.
ALAMEDA The Oakland Raiders passed up on some
high-prole players on the second day of the NFL draft Friday
to take Florida State offensive lineman Menelik Watson in the
second round and Connecticut outside linebacker Sio Moore
with their third-round pick.
With many prominent skill position players available like
quarterbacks Matt Barkley and Ryan Nassib, running back
Eddie Lacy and receiver Keenan Allen, general manager Reggie
McKenzie stuck to his draft board to add an offensive lineman
who has played only two years of football in his life and anoth-
er linebacker.
Both the guys we were able to add today we feel are really
good football players and really stand for the things were look-
ing for and stand for things Ive been talking about and Reggies
been talking about, guys that really love football, guys that want
to work, guys that are going to put the team rst, coach Dennis
Allen said. So felt really good about the two picks we added
today.
The Raiders added Watson with the pick they acquired the
previous day from Miami when they moved back nine spots in
the opening round. Oakland took cornerback D.J. Hayden 12th
overall on Thursday after trading down from No. 3.
Watson grew up in England and grew up playing soccer, bas-
ketball and boxed. He played one season of basketball at Marist
College and was set to give that up and go back to England and
look for work when he decided to give football a chance.

The Bay Area never ceases to amaze! The
residential real estate market over the past 12
months has been UNreal! Never mind the Fiscal
Cliff, never mind the Debt Ceiling, the numbers
speak for themselves in 2012. Median home prices
in San Mateo and Santa Clara counties increased
approximately 15% to 16% in just the past 12
months. The increases were higher in popular
towns such Palo Alto, Menlo Park, Los Altos and
Mountain View where median home prices have
exceeded the peak prices from mid 2008.
Reports are being heard multiple offers are being
received on numerous properties. In some cases 8
to as many as 30+ offers have been received on
some properties. Overbidding in the range of 5% to
20% over asking price has not been UNusual.
Many offers are All Cash! The market is a real
market without the benefit of the easy loans from
the mid 2000s. Residential real estate along the
Peninsula and Silicon Valley is alive and well.
But why?
Home inventory levels are UNbelievably low and
have not been this low in over 7 years. This is
making it hard on home buyers to purchase a home.
Buyers are moving to the Bay Area from all over
the globe. They are being greeted with only a
handful of homes to view in the towns and prices
ranges they are targeting. When will new inventory
of homes arrive on the market? Usually the homes
start arriving on the market just after Super Bowl
Sunday. It is UNknown, though, if there will be
enough new inventory to satisfy the current
demand. Home sellers are taking note of this and
have been considering that this might just be the
right time to sell.

bounce house from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Saturday. Those who take part in the kid-
created carnival will also be supporting a
good cause. Money raised will be donat-
ed to InnVision Shelter Network, a non-
prot dedicated to ending homelessness.
Teacher Audrey Fairchild explained
the idea came from the hit YouTube
video which since caused a movement of
students at schools creating the card-
board carnivals for charity. The original
idea came from a 9-year-old boy in East
Los Angeles who spent a summer creat-
ing cardboard arcade games he set up in
his dads used auto parts shop. It started
with a small game and eventually took
over most of the shop which is what
the video showcases. After the video
went viral, Caines Arcade grew in pop-
ularity and inspired many other children
to follow his lead and create games.
To participate, Crocker students had to
create a game proposal and submit it to
Fairchild by April 12. Students then
worked this week to make their plans
into real cardboard games. For the stu-
dents, the volunteer project came with
unexpected challenges.
Twelve-year-old Mitchell R., for
example, decided to make a pinball
machine. He wanted a challenge.
Mitchell R. soon realized that his cre-
ation wouldnt look like a traditional
pinball machine. Then he focused on
setting up the ball retrieval.
Many of the games are ones with
which anyone would be familiar.
Julianna Jajeh and Thea Portnoy, both
12, decided to make a bowling game.
Originally, they thought of using plastic
bottles as the pins, said Jajeh. Instead,
theyre using pins from Jajehs siblings
bowling set.
Were reusing instead of recycling,
said Portnoy.
The girls will set up different distances
from which children should stand
depending on their age, making the
games difculty adaptable to the cus-
tomer.
Nearby, seventh graders K.B. Bauer
and Patrick Selfridge were putting
together their Angry Birds football toss.
Selfridge said the work was denitely
harder than they had expected. Once
complete, the boys hoped the game
would feature the Angry Bird pigs as the
targets for the toss, said Bauer.
Eleven-year-olds Emma Goldberg,
Julia Meints and Bella Evans called their
game knock em down. The girls deco-
rated coffee cups lled with sand that
people will attempt to knock down.
Students were also in charge of getting
prizes for their game. Candy was a pop-
ular option but the knock em down crew
had a box full of donated toys and hand-
made goods created from pipe cleaners.
Despite challenges, students seemed
to nd unique solutions to creating the
games.
Sixth grader Noah Blount encouraged
his friend Sam Bermsan to give the
building challenge a try. Bermsan,
Blount loves skee ball but didnt think he
could build it. By Tuesday afternoon, the
boys had the ball retrieval part of the
game set up and had decided that tennis
balls were the best type to use. Blount
said they dont weigh much, so smaller
kids can play, and the bounce could
make the game more fun.
The Cardboard Carnival will be held
from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, April 27
at Crocker Middle School, 2600 Ralston
Ave., Hillsborough.

CARNIVAL
old wife, Parima, died from one of those
weapons a .380-caliber handgun
in what prosecutors say was a murder
staged as suicide by Peter Parineh to
wipe away millions of dollars in debt.
Pooroushasb Parineh, 67, has pleaded
not guilty to murder for the benet of
nancial gain and his defense in opening
statements said Parima Parineh killed
herself.
Marcia Reed, ofce manager at Reeds
Indoor Range in Santa Clara, testied
that Parineh paid $21.54 to rent one
shooting lane and one target for two peo-
ple on Feb. 26, 2010. The other person, a
man named Hermon Burbach III, signed
the waiver of liability but Parineh is the
one who signed the receipt.
Prosecutor Jeff Finigan who told
jurors Thursday that Parinehs approxi-
mately $70 million real estate empire
had crumbled and more than $30 million
in life insurance was set to expire in
April also called responding sheriffs
deputies and a tness center employee to
recreate the day Parima Parineh died.
Peter Parineh claimed to have gone to
work and the gym before returning to the
Fox Hill Road home just after 4 p.m.
April 13, 2010 and nding his wife dead.
Ryan Alvarez, who knew Peter
Parineh from his front desk job at the
Courtside Club in Los Gatos, testied
that on that day he acted unusual. He
was a little more hasty in terms of get-
ting checked in with only a nod and his
usual hour-plus workshop was denite-
ly a lot shorter than usual, Alvarez said.
When done, Parineh forewent his typ-
ical trip to the cafe for water and just
went straight out of the building, he
said.
After Parineh called 911, deputies
found the man at home and handcuffed
him as a precaution. He was visibly
upset and crying, Deputy Richard
Brooker testied and, after being taken
to the Hall of Justice in Redwood City,
required an ambulance for transport to
Sequoia Hospital because of chest pains.
Brooker also testified that nobody
touched the body, the gun in her hand or
any other part of the scene including the
bloody comforter.
Finigan contends Parineh staged the
scene after shooting at his wife four
times, hitting her twice, and that the
blood location on the gun and bed
proves the wounds were not self-inict-
ed.
Defense attorney Dek Ketchum said
his experts will disprove the theory and
show that Parima Parineh was able to
shoot herself more than once before
dying. Parima Parineh was severely
depressed by the familys financial
straits and killed herself to give her three
grown children access to the life insur-
ance money, according to Ketchum.
If Parineh is convicted of rst-degree
murder for nancial gain, he faces life in
prison without parole.
He remains in custody without bail.

GDP is the broadest gauge of the economys health. It meas-
ures the total output of goods and services produced in the
United States, from haircuts and hamburgers to airplanes and
automobiles.
The government will provide two updated estimates of rst-
quarter growth based on more complete data. Whatever the
revised data show, estimated rst-quarter growth will likely
remain far above the economys scant 0.4 percent growth rate
in the October-December quarter.
In a healthy economy, with an unemployment rate between
5 percent and 6 percent, GDP growth of 2.5 percent or 3 per-
cent would be considered solid. But in todays still-struggling
recovery, with unemployment at 7.6 percent, the economy
needs faster growth to generate enough jobs to quickly shrink
unemployment.
Since the Great Recession ofcially ended in June 2009,
growth has remained weaker than usual after a severe down-
turn. In part, thats because the recession followed the worst
nancial crisis since Great Depression. The economy expand-
ed just 2.4 percent in 2010, 1.8 percent in 2011 and 2.2 percent
in 2012.
This had been expected to be the year when growth would
nally reach a more robust 3 percent to 4 percent pace. But
across-the-board government spending cuts, which began tak-
ing effect March 1, have made that unlikely. The cuts are forc-
ing agencies to furlough workers, reducing spending on public
projects and making businesses nervous about investing and
hiring.
Unless Congress and the White House reach a deal to
reverse them, the government spending cuts will continue
through the end of the year and beyond.
Consumers take-home pay has also fallen because President
Barack Obama and Congress allowed a Social Security tax cut
to expire. A person earning $50,000 a year has about $1,000
less to spend this year. A household with two high-paid work-
ers has up to $4,500 less. Consumers take-home pay is crucial
to the economy because their spending drives roughly 70 per-
cent of growth.

O
ne of my good friends has a mom
who heads up the human resources
department at a biotech company.
So, as I am deliberating on whether I should
attend the University of California, Santa
Barbara or San Diego
State University and join
its honors program, I
posed the question to her,
which would you recom-
mend I attend?
Unsurprisingly, she said
the University of
California, Santa Barbara.
In her eyes, statistics
like Santa Barbara being
placed 41st on the U.S. News & World Report
rankings of national universities as opposed to
San Diego being placed at a discouraging
165th place stands out the most. In the eyes of
a dreaming student, AKA me, the factor that
screams the loudest is the signicant differ-
ence in cost (UCSBs tuition is approximately
$12,000, whereas SDSUs tuition is approxi-
mately $6,750) because the extra money saved
would allow me to enter at least one, if not
many, travel abroad programs at San Diego
State.
I have always been under the impression
that college is a students opportunity to learn
as much as he or she possibly can, which I
believe is correct. However, is learning more
about your future profession most important?
Or, is learning about the ways of the world,
about the person you are and the person you
wish to become, more critical? Through the
experience of moving away from home to
study at a university, as far as Ive been told,
you learn more about the person you are and
want to be than information found in the essay
of a scholar.
First impressions are crucial, and Santa
Barbara would give me a leg up on those who
graduated from San Diego at rst glance by an
employer. San Diego, on the other hand,
would allow me to experience more than just a
20-mile radius about my school, but stretch
my cultural awareness beyond borders this

In tough economic times, the arts are often
the rst to take a hit. School art and music
programs or community art centers and the-
aters are forced to cut back.
When the economy was booming the early
2000s, the Bay Shore Lyric Opera produced
three operas at Redwood Citys Fox Theatre:
Die Fledermaus, Rigoletto and Carmen.
When we rst started at
the Fox Theatre, we
brought the best of the
best, said Claire Der
Torossian, founder of Bay
Shore Lyric Opera. It was
absolutely delightful.
Then in the economic
downturn, the owner of the
Fox lost the theater to
foreclosure. And BSLO
struggled to raise money.
We took a really big step back because of
corporate funding, said Jenny Studley, Der
Torossians daughter, and founder of Bay
Shore Lyric Childrens Opera. The timing
wasnt right, the recession hit.
Now, after a decade-long hiatus from the
Fox, the BSLO is coming back. It hopes that
Sundays opera, Il Trovatore, composed by
Giuseppe Verdi, will be the beginning of its
re-emergence in Redwood City.
Der Torossian has produced countless
operas in the Bay Area over the past two
decades, including many at the Capitola
Theater, which she previously owned with her
husband.
I cant even begin to name every opera that
Ive done, she said.
She remembered the previous shows BSLO
put on at the Fox.

Delivering visual drama and

is not something that can be adequately
described on paper, however. When it comes
down to it, statistics state that Santa Barbara
would provide a better education and be more
persuasive when it comes time to search for a
job, but San Diego will give me a relatively
good education and a taste of other cultures,
not to mention personal counselors, small
class sizes, private study areas and many more
tantalizing benets designed to help me suc-
ceed.
How does one choose between prestige and
experience? What ultimately weighs in the
most? How will my decision affect me in the
long run? The choice will be different for
everyone. But, no matter what happens, we
will always be judged by the choice that we
make; whether it is an employer or a new
acquaintance, the decision lasts longer than
just four years.
The deadline to declare your intent to attend
a school, for both UC and CSU, is May 1. In
other words, I have less than a week to make
my nal decision, and I am not alone.
Between researching the two colleges and
comparing the positives and negatives, I real-
ized it is not a question of which school is bet-
ter, but rather who I want to be and where I
see my life heading after these torturous and
wonderful next four years.
I wont bore you with my personal vision
for the future but, to future freshman, I
encourage you to do some soul searching and
think long term before making your decision.
To parents, I encourage you to be proud of
your children for being mature enough to rec-
ognize who they are, what is best for them and
make a decision based on their conclusions.
And, of course, to employers, dont overlook
the students with degrees from lesser acknowl-
edged schools, because there may just be a
reason why that student got a little more than
a good education from that school things
less recognizable when presented on paper.

of the action, though, devolves into close
encounters with sharks, scenes that leave the
on-deck characters adrift rather than helping
to dene them.
A brief childhood-episode prologue makes
clear that Heyerdahl is singularly driven. The
rst words in Petter Skavlans screenplay are
a warning to the young Thor as he ventures
onto the ice: Dont do it! At his peril he
ignores the naysayers, and will again 20-odd
years later, when, as an accomplished ethnog-
rapher, he nds his unconventional theories
derided and rejected by every scientic pub-
lisher in New York.
The gist of those theories is that 1,500 years
earlier, the Polynesian islands were settled not
by Asians, the agreed-upon scenario, but by
South Americans crossing the Pacic from the
east. To prove it, Heyerdahl sets out to make
the trip himself, using methods and materials
like those available to pre-Columbian Incas,
and naming his balsa-wood raft Kon-Tiki,
after an Incan sun god.
As he should, the central character remains
an enigma, steady and elusive. Portraying the
adult Thor, actor Pel Sverre Hagen has some-
thing of the young Peter OToole about him:
tall and lean with blazing blue eyes, evincing
charisma and madness nearly in equal meas-
ure.
The script supplies expository intros for his
ve fellow adventurers, but gives most of the
actors little chance to differentiate their char-
acters. In some sense its enough to know that
theyve embarked on a 4,000-mile journey
that most observers consider suicidal: Only
one of the six has sailing experience, Thor
cant swim, and their sole concession to
modernity is an amateur two-way radio.
In the most substantial supporting role,
Anders Baasmo Christiansen plays Herman
Watzinger, the divorced engineer who signs
on rst, eager to shake up his life. Hes a
hangdog contrast to Thors uninching will-
ingness to leave behind his wife, Liv (Agnes
Kittelsen), and kids. (A long-distance call
between husband and wife contains the lms
one glaring anachronism, at least in the
English subtitles: Youre breaking up.)
Potent ashbacks show that Thor and Liv
once shared a much different life as explorers,
a life that hes not ready to give up.
Hermans growing doubts about the rafts
construction erode his peace of mind. Amid
mounting tensions, the rest of the crew
(Tobias Santelmann, Odd-Magnus
Williamson, Jakob Oftebro and Gustaf
Skarsgerd) are more guarded about their faith
in the Kon-Tiki. The seventh raft-mate, a par-
rot named Lorita who received ample screen
time in the 1950 lm, is presented in a way
that telegraphs her fate.
As single-minded as Thor is Hagens
pointed stare is loaded with self-certainty and
foreboding hes also media-savvy, and at
the urging of a crewmate turns the mission
into a documentary lm project. Some of the
movies most intriguing sequences involve the
lmmaking process: the use of a dinghy to get
master shots of the raft; the scramble to load
the 16mm camera when a spectacular creature
surfaces.
This retelling of a bare-bones enterprise by
six men took a crew of hundreds, and the
results are nothing if not polished, with hand-
some period detail and visual effects that are
convincing, if sometimes ostentatious. The
widescreen lensing (the lm was shot mainly
in and around Malta) doesnt overdo the sense
of wonder and, with a strong assist from the
sound design, conveys the mens vulnerability
to the elements.
But too often the directors ride the surface
rather than plumb the storys depths, relying
on a score by Johan Svderqvist that abounds
in obvious cues. Those signals of danger and
grandeur emphasize the otherwise stream-
lined scripts heavy-handed lapses.
Kon-Tiki, a Weinstein Co. release, is rated
PG-13 for a disturbing violent sequence.
Running time: 118 minutes.

GEORGE STUARTS MINIATURE
MASTERPIECES AT THE MUSEUM OF
VENTURA COUNTY BRING HISTORY
TO (ONE-FOURTH) LIFE (SIZE). Marie
Antoinette, Henry VIII, the Borgia family and
Chinas Last Emperor Pu-Yi. They all
stepped into the history books and, ultimate-
ly, onto the silver screen. Beginning May 14,
they are available for their close-ups at the
Museum of Ventura County as it hosts Fact or
Fiction? Stuart Critiques Hollywood. The
Stuart in question is George Stuart, the
artist and historian who over the past 50 years
has created more than 400 intricately carved,
one-quarter life-size figures from history,
each dressed in elaborate period costume.
Stuart came to his art indirectly. While
attending the University of California in
Santa Barbara, he was drawn to the perform-
ing arts and began traveling the United States
delivering historical monologues about polit-
ically inuential people from world history.
Stuart created gures to illustrate the talks
and assembled them into themed groups to
complement his performances. The groups
include American Revolutionary and Civil
Wars (Samuel Adams to Abraham Lincoln),
English Monarchies (Henry VII to Edward
VII), Bourbon Dynasty (Henry IV to Charles
X), Czarist Russia (Ivan IV to Joseph Stalin),
Manchu Dynasty (Nurhachi to Mao Tse-
Tung), Renaissance & Reformation (various
rulers and clergy), Conquest of the Americas
(Columbus to John Fremont), and Really
Awful People (historys infamous). His works
have been exhibited in The Smithsonian and
the Clinton Presidential Library as well as
other museums and libraries throughout the
United States. In 1979, Stuart donated 200 of
his Historical Figures to the Museum of
Ventura County, where they are now shown
on uninterrupted rotation. A selection of these
figures comprise Fact or Fiction? Stuart
Critiques Hollywood.
Museum Curator Ariane Karakalos said,
Visitors to the Museum are amazed by the
beauty and intricate detail of Stuarts crafts-
manship. Those attending his monologues
not only appreciate the educational experi-
ence but enjoy his outspoken and irreverent
humor.
The Museum of Ventura Countys general
collection includes 30,000 pieces of ne art
and historical objects relating to Ventura
Countys early inhabitants and to its partici-
pation in local, national and global events
such as the Spanish American War, World
War II, and the Saint Francis Dam Disaster.
Fine art holdings include works by artists
John Nava, Jessie Arms Botke, Omar dLeon,
Horace Bristol and Beatrice Wood. Eight
stained Italian glass mosaics by Ventura artist
Larissa Strauss, set in the wall of the
Museums front courtyard, depict the history
of Ventura County from the earliest Chumash
inhabitants through the days of the Mexican
land grants to the establishment of the Naval
Construction Force (Seabees) base at Port
Hueneme during World War II.
The Museum of Ventura County is located
at 100 E. Main St., Ventura, California.

ater, she said. It just lent itself to opera.
Der Torossian was eager to talk about this
weekends performance, despite her battling
lung cancer in the hospital.
I wanted to be involved in it so much,
said an emotional Der Torossian. I really
had thoughts of getting out of this sick bed
and going out to help.
Though she will be absent, she knows that
her daughter Jenny Studley and leading lady
Liliane Cromer will put on a great show.
I know theyve done their very best, she
said, adding that she has confidence in the
venue. Their voices will hold, and hold
well.
Music to the people
This year marks the 200th birthday of Il
Trovatores composer Giuseppe Verdi, said
Cromer.
Il Trovatore is full of foot-popping
melodies that create memories for a life-
time, said Cromer. If you love high notes,
both the tenor and soprano have many of
them.
Even people who have never been to an
opera will recognize the Anvil Chorus, she
said.
Youll say oh, Ive heard that before,
said Studley, who is also singing in this
weekends show. Thats the funny thing
about opera.
Cromer, who grew up in a small village in
Alsace, France, was lucky enough to play in
a band growing up. Music was essential in
her town, she said.
People needed music for happy events.
People needed music for sad events, she
said. It was the jewel of the community.
Redwood City has been extremely sup-
portive of BSLO, she said.
Hopefully we can bring business to the
city and joy to the people, she said.
Opera disaster
The first opera Der Torossian produced
was Madama Butterfly. She returned from a
leave of absence with only a week until the
performance. She sat down in the audience
to watch a rehearsal, hopeful that her pro-
ducers had put together a powerful show.
She watched as Madama Butterfly saun-
tered across the stage, and the girls began
to sing duet, where they throw flowers up in
the air. Der Torossians vision of this scene
was to see the women throw the flowers
gracefully into the air and faint slowly to
the music.
That isnt what I saw, she said. I saw a
bunch of plastic being thrown onto the
floor. It was a disaster.
With her vision for the show seemingly
shattered, Der Torossian got to work. She
and friend Johnny Coppola made the show
happen the way she wanted it.
It was the best opera weve ever done,
she said.
Operas join resources
Der Torossian founded BSLO in 1997
with the mission of bringing the highest
quality opera to communities that dont nor-
mally get to see opera. The organization
offers tickets at more affordable prices,
Studley said.
A lot of people are happy not to have to
travel far and pay upwards of $100, she
said. People are saying thanks for being
here, now we can bring the whole family.
Frederick Winthrop, director of Verismo
Opera, has a very similar mission for pro-
ducing his operas in Fairfield and Vallejo.
This weekends performance of Il
Trovatore is a collaboration with the
Verismo. Combining the two operas talent,
sets and costumes allows the opera to go on
without ample grant money, said Studley.
People said you cant do it, you need
grant writers, you need to have a construc-
tion crew, she said, exhibiting the same
determination as her mother. And we said,
we can do it.
BSLO hopes to bring Carmen back to the
Fox next year.
Bay Shore Lyric Opera and Verismo
Opera are performing Il Trovatore at the
Fox Theatre in Redwood City at 2 p.m. this
Sunday, April 28.

WEEKEND JOURNAL 23
By Susan Cohn
DAILY JOURNAL
SENIOR CORRESPONDENT
IN SPIRIT AND IN STONE,
INDIANAPOLIS HONORS
AMERICAS VETERANS. What
is placed at the center of a city
reveals what is important to its resi-
dents. The heart of Indianapolis is
the sweeping Indiana War Memorial
Plaza Historic District, composed of
predominately neoclassical build-
ings and structures, landscaped
open spaces with fountains and
beautiful statuary. The complex
serves as a permanent and dramatic
expression of gratitude from the cit-
izens of Indiana to those who have
served in the United States Military.
The focal point of the district is the
Indiana War Memorial, a breathtak-
ing square-based structure, clad in
Indiana limestone, with ionic
columns and a pyramidal dome,
modeled after The Mausoleum at
Halicarnassus, one of the Seven
Wonders of the Ancient World. At
210 feet tall, the Indiana War
Memorial is 75 feet taller than the
original mausoleum.
General John J. Black Jack
Pershing laid the cornerstone in
1927 for the Memorial, which was
intended to honor those who had
died in World War I. Its purpose has
expanded to honor American sol-
diers of all foreign wars, with a par-
ticular focus on local Hoosier sto-
ries. There are three main oors, the
most dramatic of which is the
Shrine Room, 110 feet high and 60
feet on a side, made of materials
from all over the world, symbolic of
the world wide nature of the Great
War. Twenty-four pillars made of
red Vermont marble represent the
ultimate sacrice made by World
War I soldiers. Hanging in the cen-
ter of the room is the Star of
Destiny, made of Swedish Crystal,
representing the future of the
nation. Beneath a giant hanging 17-
foot-by-30-foot American ag is the
Altar of Consecration, a place to
remember fallen soldiers and com-
rades.
Indiana War Memorials Executive
Director J. Stewart Goodwin, Brig.
Gen., USAF (Ret), said, Only
Washington, D.C., has more monu-
ments honoring veterans than we do
in Indianapolis. Our main mission is
to honor Hoosier Veterans.
Additionally, we are equally com-
mitted to educating citizens in the
history of our state and country
along with all veterans who served
and in many cases gave the ultimate
sacrice so that we may live the
lifestyle we so often take for grant-
ed. In todays world fewer and
fewer citizens have served in the
military, therefore, there are fewer
civic leaders, legislators, teachers
and parents who can tell the story
rst hand as to what it means to
serve in the armed forces. We feel it
is important for all citizens to hear
this story and especially the youth
of America.
The Memorials lower level con-
tains a 30,000-square-foot military
history museum that tells the story
of Indianas veterans from the
American Revolution through
todays War on Terror. There are
more than 400 military ags housed
in the museum, more than 300 of
which are from the American Civil
War. A separate gallery tells the
heartrending story of the USS
Indianapolis, the heavy cruiser that
delivered secret components for the
atomic bomb that would be dropped
on Hiroshima. On its return voyage,
the USS Indianapolis was sunk by a
Japanese submarine. Through a
series of errors, the incident was not
reported and the 900 survivors of
the attack were left in the shark-
infested waters for three days until
spotted by a US Navy aircraft. Only
317 of the original 1196 crew were
rescued. Her crew and survivors
meet annually in Indianapolis to
honor their fallen shipmates.
THE AMERICAN LEGION
AND THE MEMORIAL. The ori-
gins of the Indiana War Memorial
Plaza lay in the determination of
Indianapolis veterans in 1919 to
lure the then newly formed
American Legion from its tempo-
rary headquarters in New York City.
At an American Legion national
convention in Minneapolis during
November 1919, many cities lob-
bied to become the new headquar-
ters. Indianapolis won because of its
central location within the United
States and the citys show of patriot-
ism. It began to fulll its commit-
ment to the American Legion by
erecting a tting memorial to those
who served in World War I. The
National Headquarters of The
American Legion, a large four-story
building located near the Indiana
War Memorial Plaza, was a gift to
the American Legion from the peo-
ple of Indiana. The current National
Commander of the American
Legion is James Koutz from
Indiana.
MUSEUM PARTICULARS:
The Indiana War Memorial
Museum is located at 431 North
Meridian St. in Indianapolis, Ind.
The Museum is open Wednesday
through Sunday from 9 a.m. to 5
p.m. Admission is free.
AND, REMEMBER: If you
reject the food, ignore the customs,
fear the religion and avoid the peo-
ple, you might better stay at home.

The Indiana War Memorial Shrine Room in Indianapolis honors fallen
soldiers and their comrades.The altar of consecration in the center of the
room commemorates sacrices made during World War I.
By Chris Talbott
and Hillel Italie
NASHVILLE, Tenn. When it
comes to country music, George
Jones was The Voice.
Other great singers have come and
gone, but this fact remained inviolate
until Jones passed away Friday at 81
in a Nashville hospital after a year of
ill health.
Today someone else has become
the greatest living singer of tradition-
al country music, but there will never
be another George Jones, said
Bobby Braddock, the Country Music
Hall of Fame songwriter who provid-
ed Jones with 29 songs over the
decades. No
one in country
music has inu-
enced so many
other artists.
He did it with
that voice. Rich
and deep, strong
enough to crack
like a whip, but
supple enough
to bring tears. It was so powerful, it
made Jones the rst thoroughly mod-
ern country superstar,
complete with the sub-
stance abuse problems and
rich-and-famous celebrity
lifestyle that included
mansions, multiple
divorces and to hear one fellow
performer tell it stfuls of cocaine.
He was a beloved and at times a
notorious gure in Nashville and his
problems were just as legendary as
his songs. But when you dropped the
needle on one of his records, all that
stuff went away. And you were left
with The Voice.
He just knows how to pull every
drop of emotion out of it of the songs
if its an emotional song or if its a
fun song he knows how to make that
work, Alan Jackson said in a 2011
interview. Its rare. He was a big fan
of Hank Williams Sr. like me. He
tried to sing like Hank in the early
days. Ive heard early cuts. And the
difference is Hank was a singer and
he was a great writer, but he didnt
have that natural voice like George.
Not many people do. That just sets
him apart from everybody.
That voice helped Jones achieve
No. 1 songs in ve separate decades,
1950s to 1990s. And its qualities
were admired by more than just his
fellow country artists but by Frank
Sinatra, Pete Townshend, Elvis
Costello, James Taylor and countless
others. If we all could sound like we
wanted to, wed all sound like
George Jones, Waylon Jennings
once sang.
Word of his death spread Friday
morning as his peers paid tribute.
Merle Haggard put it best, perhaps:
The world has lost the greatest
country singer of all time. Amen.

the cat limit of three, hoping that the city
would make an exception for her because she
does charitable work with kittens.
Burlingame has an exemption for kittens
that are under two months old, but this still left
Gorman over the cat limit. City code allowed
for her to keep up to ve cats if she obtained
written approval from a majority of her neigh-
bors living within 400 feet of her residence.
This meant knocking on the doors of 77
houses in her neighborhood, of which many
are homes of her former foster kittens.
A lot of my neighbors have a Kathleen
Gorman cat, I like to joke, she said.
Gorman spent several weekends circulating
a petition through her neighborhood.
Her experience was exhausting. Out of
every 10 households she went to, she would
get answers from about two of them. But the
process was not all negative.
It was an exercise in meeting more of my
neighbors, she said. It tied me more to the
city.
The majority of her neighbors were OK
with her keeping more than three cats. Though
one person tried to take her clipboard from her
and a couple other people questioned her.
Some people were like, what I dont
understand, why do you have so many cats?
she said.
No exception for fostering
Last month, the city granted Gorman the
permit to keep ve cats. This is the rst permit
that Burlingame has issued since the adoption
of the code in 1988, according to Harris.
Even with the permit for ve cats, Gorman
will not be able to legally foster kittens.
Gorman sees the necessity of the citys lim-
its to prevent public safety hazards, but feels
there should be an exception for people who
are fostering animals.
Most cities have animal limits, said Brian
Provst, volunteer coordinator with the
Peninsula Humane Society.
I believe that the limit is for animals that
are owned, said Provst, who has never heard
of another case like Gormans. These animals
arent really owned by the person, they are just
being fostered for a short period of time.
All volunteers who foster animals go
through training at PHS, said Provst. The kit-
ten volunteers enable the PHS to get feral kit-
tens healthy and nd them good homes.
We like to place them in foster homes
because they have undeveloped immune sys-
tems, he said. They have much better chance
of surviving and then coming back to us and
being adopted if they go to a foster home.
The PHS does their best to nd good homes
for kittens, hoping to avoid euthanizing them,
said Provst.
They havent even had a shot in the world
yet, said Gorman, who takes feral kittens that
are up to eight weeks old and gets them used
to being around humans. She starts by keeping
the kittens in her small home ofce as she
works, grabbing them and playing with them.
Its just like, too bad, Im going to tame
you up, she said.
When the cats are young, they can warm up
to humans quickly, she said, petting her uffy
cat named Lou, a tamed feral cat.
With kittens, you can have a breakthrough
in three days, she said. Ive just been doing
this forever.

TaUrUs (April 20-May 20) -- If you are far too
sensitive for your own good and read all kinds of
slights into the actions or words of others, youre
likely to let the least little thing ruin your day.
GEMini (May 21-June 20) -- Theres a good
chance that most of your perceptions wont be in
line with reality. Youll allow your imagination to
make erroneous judgments that wont serve your
interests.
CanCEr (June 21-July 22) -- Do your best to
accomplish as many essential tasks as possible
early in the day. As the afternoon closes in, your
sense of priorities might dissolve.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Itll be important to guard
against your more extravagant inclinations. If you
lack control, you wont be too effective at managing
your resources.
VirGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Involvements with
others are likely to go much smoother when
conducted early in the day. Dont wait until the
afternoon, when everyones patience will be wearing
thin.
LiBra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- There is a strong
possibility that you might judge people based on
your emotions rather than your logic. If you do,
others will evaluate you in the same manner.
sCOrPiO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- If you feel compelled
to keep up with the Joneses, youll quickly exhaust

regarding the demands you make of loved ones.
Without realizing it, you might expect more of them
then theyre able to give.
CaPriCOrn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- If you have some
confdential information that youre anxious to talk
about, make certain that you dont spill the beans to
the wrong people.
aQUariUs (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Because youre
likely to be unusually receptive to investment
proposals, be extra careful that you can tell the good
from the bad. Dont act impulsively.
PisCEs (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Youre opening
yourself up for disappointment if you expect credit
for an accomplishment that you have yet to achieve.
Do what needs doing, be patient and let your deeds
speak for themselves.
ariEs (March 21-April 19) -- To be successful, you
must be tenacious and quick on your feet. If one of
these elements is missing, you wont have much to
boast about.

California, County of San Mateo, 400

person or by your attorney. If you are a
creditor or a contingent creditor of the
decedent, you must file your claim with
the court and mail a copy to the personal
representative appointed by the court
within four months from the date of first
issuance of letters as provided in Pro-
bate Code section 9100. The time for fil-
ing claims will not expire before four
months from the hearing date noticed
above. You may examine the file kept by
the court. If you are a person interested
in the estate, you may file with the court
a Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
