AT LEAST 35 DEAD AS SOUTH BRACES FOR MORE TWISTERS

A 26-year-old man accused of
abducting his infant son to
Arizona last year while the boys
mother in San Mateo sought an
emergency custody order had been
researching articles on the
Internet about disappearing and
traveling with a
n e w b o r n ,
according to
prosecutors.
After authori-
ties arrested
Zachary James
Sorrell last year
and recovered
the baby, San
Mateo police searched his trailer
and reported finding multiple
weapons including AK-47s, a
TEC-9, a rie and several thousand
rounds of ammunition and loaded
magazines.
But Sorrells defense attorney
Gregory Bentley said the matters
are two separate things a child
custody dispute and his fear he
wouldnt see his son and posses-
sion of weapons by an ex-military
member that are legal in other
states where they were purchased.
Mr. Sorrell is an honest, good
man and not at all somebody who
would knowingly violate the law,
Bentley said. Calling him a kid-
napper of his own child is really
pushing the envelope.
Sorrell is charged with depriv-
ing a lawful custodian of custody
and multiple weapons charges. On
Tuesday, Sorrell pleaded not guilty
to all charges in Superior Court
and set a Sept. 22 jury trial.

er seems willing to build one as a
tradeoff for large-scale residential

The City Council and public met
Monday to discuss a preliminary
proposal to develop land at Beach
Park Boulevard near Halibut and
Swordsh streets thats owned by
Sam Runco, an entrepreneur
known as a pioneer in the eld of

The sites applicant, Foster City
Marina Center, proposes 273 resi-
dential units spread between four-
and ve-story buildings, 27,500
square feet of commercial space
and 665 parking spaces. It is also
proposing a public pier, 214 boat
slips and a harbormaster building
that would include a restaurant and
restrooms, according to a city staff
report.

The City Council Monday night
also agreed to stop selling month-
ly permits for its Perry Street lot
and Marshall Street garage and
restrict the number of permits to
70 for the Main Street lot.

What started out as a small con-
signment shop more than 18 years
ago, has transformed and expanded
into a place where people of all
ages are encouraged to be creative.
Jill Pillot said her business is
the longest standing on the 1600
block of El Camino Real across
from the Safeway in San Mateo and
about eight years ago decided to
convert her consignment store
into something innovative.
She created Ricochet, a small
clothing shop that functions like
a school and teaches practically
anyone whos interested in trans-
forming discarded clothing into
unique, wearable art.
This is a longtime dream. I
always wanted to teach, I wanted to
be creative, I wanted to open up
doors for people that needed some
help, Pillot said. Its a big pas-
sion and its a journey and I get to
see it become much stronger. Ive
worked seven days a week for the
last 18 years. And yes, its very
fullling and building it step by
step.
This weekend, Ricochet is cele-
brating its grand opening after
moving from a 300-square-foot
space to a 1,700-square-foot site

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A jury Tuesday convicted a South San
Francisco man of raping one of his girl-
friends half-sisters for eight years and
behaving inappropriately with another
and a neighbor girl.
Kyle Clifton Vogt, 38, now faces 35
years to life in prison when sentenced June
20 for the 11 felonies which include rape,
continuous sexual abuse of a child, send-
ing harmful sexual matter to a minor, six
counts of lewd acts with a minor under 14
and two counts of lewd acts with a minor
over 14 by someone more than 10 years
older.
Jurors deliberated
Monday and part of
Tuesday before returning
its verdict following a
nearly two-week trial.
South San Francisco
police arrested Vogt in
2012 after reportedly
learning he had been car-
rying on a sexual rela-
tionship with his girl-
friends half-sister starting in 2002 when
the victim was 5. The girl told her mom
what was going on when she turned 13,
according to prosecutors.
After being taken into custody, Vogt was
also accused of molesting one of the girl-
friends other half-sisters between 2000
and 2012 along with a neighbor girl who
was the first victims friend. Those acts
allegedly included sending inappropriate
texts, kissing and groping. Vogt threat-
ened some of girls with bodily harm to
keep them from talking, police said.
He split his time between homes in
South San Francisco and Davis where he
lived with his 30-year-old girlfriend. Her
younger sisters often visited the couple
and periodically lived with them in both
cities, according to South San Francisco
police.
Vogt remains in custody without bail.

Hold off on the retirement party.
Outgoing Redwood City Finance Manager
Brian Ponty will stay on board 90 days past
his retirement while the city continues
nalizing the hiring of his replacement.
Ponty, 56, is set to retire May 10 but
agreed to the interim post because the city
has been challenged to ll the upcoming
vacancy. Recruitment began in December but
City Manager Bob Bell said it has been very
difcult to get enough qualied candidates to
interview ve. The pool is down to two and
Bell said he hopes to have nal steps like
background checks com-
pleted by the end of May.
If no hiring decision is
made by then, Bell said he
will be looking at making
a long-term interim
appointment. He did not
indicate if that appoint-
ment could be Ponty.
The City Council
Monday night needed to
approve Pontys extension because it is an
exception to the 180-day wait period
required by the Public Employee Pension
Reform Act. The mandate prohibits public
employees from returning to a public
agency before that minimum time unless a
city council decides the appointment is nec-
essary to ll a critical position.
Bell told the council in a staff report that
Pontys extension is necessary to nish
preparing the 2014-15 budget and he will
remain from May 12 through June 30 or
until his successor is hired.
As a contract employee, Ponty will earn
$96.74 per hour and not receive any other
benet s.
Pontys retirement comes after nearly 30
years with Redwood City. He currently over-
sees a department staff of 18 and a budget
that includes estimated general fund revenue
of $86.6 million.

Members of the San Mateo-Foster City
Elementary School Districts Next Steps
Advisory Committee are grappling with
how fundraising, facilities needs and volun-
teer efforts affect equity.
The real challenge for the district is gur-
ing out what impact increased enrollment
has on equity, said Superintendent Cynthia
Simms at a Monday night meeting. The dis-
tricts committee on philanthropy and equi-
ty did research things such as program-
ming, facilities, volunteer hours at the
schools and money raised for the schools.
Schools realized it wasnt just about
money, Simms said. The number of par-
ents that volunteer at a school matters.
The meetings guest speaker, Mark
Henderson, a member the districts commit-
tee on philanthropy and equity and parent at
North Shoreview Montessori School,
explained his committees definition of
equity as the district setting and meeting
baseline expectations for all students and
providing equal access to maximum oppor-
tunities for each student to reach his or her
potential with the support and engagement
of the community.
Henderson cited a study from last school
year that found 15 percent of students at
schools have a far below expectations
about of facility space, while 39 percent
could use improvement and another 46 per-
cent meets or exceeds expectations on
space. There was other information on the
art and music programming quality that cor-
relates with space issues as well.
This shows theres a lot of diversity
between the 20 schools in the district,
said Next Steps member Gloria Brown.
As we look at a recommendation, this
data will be helpful.
Total money spent by parent teacher
associations and site-raised funding was
$2.15 million this school year, up from
$2.07 million last year. The group found a
positive relationship between school
fundraising and the schools rating based on
surveys distributed to the schools.
Still, some committee members dont see
money as the solution to equity issues.
Overcrowding is also a problem when it
comes to being able to have a diverse stu-
dent population made up of different socioe-
conomic levels, they said.
Throwing money at it doesnt work,
said committee member Larry Lowenthal.
Not to the extent wed like. If the bowl
is overowing you cant stir it.
Another member, Daniela Relaford, said
she has an issue to begin with on how aca-
demics are measured by test scores. She
noted test scores are only one way of meas-
uring a schools success.
It reects more on the education of par-
ents than whats going on at the schools,
she said.
Some schools are working on community
outreach, with internships and tutors from
the community coming into the schools, so
students get support, said board Vice
President Audrey Ng, also a committee
member.
Money does raise the achievement level,
but not as much as putting kids in schools
with mixed socioeconomic levels, she
said. Things like positive peer pressure
being around kids talking about going to
college. We will have to decide if we want
to create more capacity in Foster City or
Baywood or if we should just dedicate funds
to certain schools.
The discussion turned to if schools that
raise more money than others should have
to give their funds to the district to distrib-
ute to other schools.
Were going to have a tough time saying
we dont want you to give 10 times more
money to your PTA, said Trustee Ed
Coady, also a committee member.
In addition to the committees meetings,
San Mateo Mayor Robert Ross, Foster City
Mayor Charlie Bronitsky, board President
Colleen Sullivan, San Mateo City Manager
Larry Patterson, Foster City Manager Jim
Hardy and Simms met last week about
school capacity and equity challenges.
Leaders discussed upcoming community
engagement opportunities being planned
for the fall by the committee to involve a
wide range of community members in gen-
erating options for addressing school
capacity and equity challenges.
The committee next meets 5:30 p.m.
Monday, May 5 at the district ofce, 1170

Personal qualications, budgeting and a
long-term view of the county Coroners
Ofce are among the issues the two candi-
dates seeking to head it addressed to help
voters decide who they should pick at the
ballot box.
Incumbent Robert Foucrault and chal-
lenger Rick Dalton sat down with the Daily
Journal for an in-ofce interview and also
provided answers to the following five
questions to allow each candidate a forum
for sharing their own words prior to the
June 3 election. Each was asked to keep the
answers to approximately 50 words and
were only edited for grammar or length.
1 . The coroner posi t i on does not
require a speci f i c educat i on or
empl oyment background, so what
makes you the best qualied for t he
pos i t i on?
Dal t on: The candidate themselves have
to make a personal commitment and set the
positions requirements much higher.
Taking this position puts you on call 24/7
and shows you both the happier and tragic
times of life within the same day. I have the
investigative, organizational, personnel,
nancial skills and discipline to bring to
the Coroners Ofce.
Foucrault: Twenty-plus years in foren-
sic death investigations and 12 years as the
coroner in San Mateo County. Participate
in ongoing annual training in coroner law
and updates and attend training and confer-
ences that keep me apprised of technologi-
cal advances.
2. How do you vi ew the ofces
rol e wi th the publ i c, other count y
departments and the funeral indus-
try ?
Dal t on: The Coroners Ofce facilitates
the much-needed information for the fami-
lies and authorities involved when a
tragedy has occurred. It also works directly
with the funeral industry and the families
involved with nal arrangements.
Foucrault: Our rst obligation is to the
families of the decedents. My ofce has
consistently received very high marks
from our customer satisfaction surveys. I
maintain strong partnerships with all
funeral homes. With regard to other agen-
cies, my department makes every effort to
work collaboratively with all our law
enforcement partners.
3. Shoul d the Coroners Ofce be
combi ned wi th the Sheri ff s Ofc e
or helmed by a medical examiner?
Dal t on: Its hard to say. Some counties
do combine both offices, however, San
Mateo County keeps them separate and in
fact the 2001 Measure A attempt to com-
bine the positions was defeated 61 to 39
percent. I feel that anybody with a genuine
interest and cause to serve the community
would make a good helmsperson.
Foucrault: I am open to discuss ways to
increase efciency and save the taxpayers
money. However, consolidation has been
on the ballot in the past and defeated. It is
unnecessary to have a medical examiner as
a department administrator. We have board-
certied pathologists who ll that need.
4. How can the ofc e
be more efcient and
cos t - eff ect i ve?
Dal t on: Upon my elec-
tion, the answer to this
question will be my priori-
t y. I have met with the
county manager and reviewed the budget for
the Coroners Ofce and am anxious to see
the actual implementation of its fiscal
processes.
Foucrault: We have already instituted
changes that allow us to share costs includ-
ing budgeting, payroll and accounting pro-
cedures. I continue to look for more ef-
cient ways to perform the function of my
ofce without jeopardizing the quality of
service owed to our clients.
5. If you are el ected, how wi l l the
o fce change or remain the same?
Dal t on: As with any leadership change
of this nature, the approach is to merge
into the ofce, like getting onto the free-
way, then determining if the direction and
the current path is smooth and functional or
full of potholes and in need of change.
Foucrault: I am always exploring ways
to make necessary and prudent changes that
increase the effectiveness of my ofce. We
are currently nding new technology and
case management procedures that will help
make our clients more informed and better
served when faced with the unfortunate cir-
cumstances of losing a loved one.

Man charged for attacking girlfriend
A36-year-old man who allegedly held a knife to his ex-
girlfriends throat early Sunday was charged Tuesday with
felony counts of domestic violence, false
imprisonment and making threats.
Wilbert Interian-Rodriguez was also
charged with a misdemeanor count of
destroying a phone to prevent a call for
help.
South San Francisco police originally
arrested him on suspicion of attempted
murder but prosecutors opted for the less-
er charges. At his initial arraignment,
Interian-Rodriguez pleaded not guilty
and did not waive his right to a speedy
trial. He returns to court May 13 for a pre-
liminary hearing and bail was set at $100,000.
Police arrested Interian-Rodriguez after responding to a
disturbance call at about 3:20 a.m. in the 200 block of
Holly Avenue.
The alleged victim told police she and Interian-Rodriguez
had been arguing for two days and were in the process of
breaking up because she had a new boyfriend. He reportedly
was angry, broke her cellphone and, she said, grabbed the
knife and placed it to her throat. The woman told her room-
mate to call the police.
The roommate said she did not see the knife or hear the
threat.
The woman was left with a 1-inch red mark on her neck
and Interian-Rodriguez had scratch marks on his chest.
Man arrested for DUI, huffing
ARedwood City man is in jail after police found him in
the Genentech parking lot with obvious damage to his car
Tuesday morning and he admitted drinking and hufng
concentrated aerosol fumes, according to South San
Francisco police.
At about 6:45 a.m., South San Francisco police ofcers
were notied of an erratic driver east of Highway 101.
Ofcers spotted Jonathan Abelian, 26, in the parking lot at
1 DNA Way with a damaged car that was driven on its rim,
according to police.

Police: Abducted California girl, 3, found alive
HURON A3-year-old Central California girl was found
alive, alone and apparently unharmed in a eld about 12
hours after she was taken from her car seat in what sheriffs
ofcials believe was a stranger abduction.
On Monday, a detective spotted the girl running through a
eld less than a mile from her Huron apartment, where she
was taken from a vehicle Sunday evening, Fresno County
sheriffs ofcials said.
The girl appears to have been taken by a stranger, but
there was no indication she was hurt, Fresno County
Sheriffs Lt. Rick Ko said Tuesday.
Her mother told police she left the girl inside her car as
she went back into her home to get her wallet around 7:45
p.m. Sunday. When she returned a few minutes later, her
daughter was gone.
Witnesses say they saw a male suspect leave the area on a
bicycle with the child. A BMX-style bicycle was found
abandoned about a block away.
Jeb Bush endorses
Kashkari campaign for governor
SACRAMENTO Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, a
potential contender for the partys 2016 presidential nomi-
nation, is endorsing Republican gubernatorial candidate
Neel Kashkari.
The endorsement, announced Tuesday, adds to the list of
establishment GOP politicians seeking to bolster
Kashkaris fledgling campaign just weeks ahead of
Californias June 3 primary.
Kashkari has the vision and the drive to reject the status
quo and usher in a new era of opportunity for the states fam-
ilies and communities, Bush said in a statement released by
Kashkaris campaign.
The former U.S. Treasury ofcial and Goldman Sachs
banker is best known for helping lead the federal bank
bailout at the height of the recession in 2008. Bush said
Kashkari demonstrated a unique ability to bring people
together to achieve success during the crisis.
Committee passes California porn condom bill
SACRAMENTO A bill that would require adult lm
actors to wear condoms during productions anywhere in
California and to be tested regularly for sexually transmitted
diseases passed a committee vote Tuesday.
AB1576 is the third attempt by Assemblyman Isadore
Hall, D-Compton, to expand statewide a Los Angeles man-
date approved by voters in 2012.
Public health advocates and some porn stars call the bill a
basic workplace safety measure that will prevent the spread
of disease.

WASHINGTON Want to know
whether theres been a history of sexual
assaults on your college campus? The
Obama administration has created a new
website that will post enforcement
actions its taken against schools and
provide information for victims on
where to go for help.
A White House task force on sexual
assault recommended actions Tuesday
that colleges and universities should
take to protect victims and inform the
public about the magnitude of the prob-
lem, such as identifying condential
victims advocates and conducting sur-
veys to better gauge the frequency of
sexual assault on their campuses.
The recommendations stem from a
90-day review by the task force that
President Barack Obama created after
his administration heard complaints
about the poor treatment of campus rape
victims and the hidden nature of such
crimes.
The task force also promised greater
transparency. A new website,
notalone.gov, will post enforcement
actions and offers information to vic-
tims about how to seek local help and
information about ling a complaint.
Colleges and universities can no
longer turn a blind eye or pretend that
rape and sexual assault doesnt occur on
their campus, Vice President Joe Biden
said in announcing the results of the
task forces work.
Advocates praised the rare, high-pro-
le attention being given to the issue,
even as they acknowledged that much of
the action required will still need to
come from college administrators.
Lisa Maatz, vice president for gov-
ernment affairs with the American
Association of University Women, said
the smart schools will take the rec-
ommendations and adopt them.
Rory Gerberg, a graduate student and
advocate at Harvard University, said
that while the task force recommenda-
tions will play a central role in deter-
mining how universities deal with sex-
ual assaults, they only go so far.
As students, it will be our responsi-
bility to put pressure on our university
administrations to ensure these recom-
mendations are put into practice,
Gerberg said.
Molly Corbett Broad, president of
the American Council on Education,
said her organization representing col-
lege and university presidents wel-
comed the chance to collaborate with
the government on handling sexual
assaults, which the task force notes is
a complicated, multidimensional prob-
lem with no easy or quick solutions.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON The Supreme Court
seemed wary Tuesday of allowing police
unbridled freedom to search through cell-
phones of people they arrest, taking on a
new issue of privacy in the face of rapidly
changing technology.
The justices appeared ready to reject the
Obama administrations argument that
police should be able to make such searches
without rst getting warrants.
A key question in two cases argued
Tuesday is whether Americans cellphones,
with vast quantities of sensitive records,
photographs and communications, are a pri-
vate realm much like their homes.
People carry their entire lives on their
cellphones, Justice Elena Kagan said.
The issue involving devices now carried
by almost everyone is the latest in which
the court is being asked to adapt old legal
rules to 21st-century technological
advances. We are living in a new world,
Justice Anthony Kennedy said.
The court heard arguments in cases
involving a drug dealer and a gang member
whose convictions turned in part on evi-
dence found on their cellphones.
The justices suggested they might favor
limiting warrantless cellphone searches to
looking for evidence of the crime on which
an arrest is based. Both defendants could
lose in such an outcome.
More broadly, however, a decision impos-
ing restrictions on the searches could avoid
subjecting people arrested for minor crimes
to having all the contents of their cell-
phones open to police inspection. And it
might also prevent the police from using
the phones to connect to the Internet and
any information stored online.
If police were to arrest someone for driv-
ing without a seat belt, Justice Antonin
Scalia said, it seems absurd that they
should be able to search that persons
iPhone.

WASHINGTON The Supreme Court on
Tuesday handed the Obama administration an
important victory in its effort to reduce
power plant pollution in 27 Midwestern and
Appalachian states that blows downwind and
leads to unhealthy air.
The decision caps a decades-long effort by
the Environmental Protection Agency to nd
a legally acceptable way to ensure that states
are good neighbors and dont contribute to
pollution problems in downwind states,
where environmental ofcials can do noth-
ing to control it. The rule upheld Tuesday was
EPAs third attempt to solve the problem.
In a 6-2 decision, the court upheld a rule
adopted by the EPA in 2011 to limit emis-
sions that create smog and soot that drifts
into the air above states along the East
Coast.
The ruling means that the polluting states
will be forced to reduce smokestack pollu-
tion that sullies the air in downwind states.
Industry and upwind states had fought the
effort and paint it as another attempt by the
administration to shut down coal-red power
plants.
Writing for the majority, Justice Ruth
Bader Ginsburg acknowledged the complexi-
ty of the problem before EPA.
In crafting a solution to the problem of
interstate air pollution, regulators must
account for the vagaries of the wind,
Ginsburg wrote.
Power companies and several states sued to
block the rule from taking effect, and a feder-
al appeals court in Washington agreed with
them in 2012.
Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide pollu-
tion from power plants can be carried long
distances and the pollutants react with other
substances to form smog and soot, which
have been linked to respiratory illnesses and
other disease.

Harbor District improvements
Editor,
In the interest of transparency and
to accurately inform your readers, I
must correct some misinformation
appearing in a letter to you on April
28 from Nicole David of Half Moon
Bay. Ms. David, who is in neither the
shing business nor the harbor busi-
ness, states incorrectly that a newly
installed sh hoist in Pillar Point
Harbor will harm small business
owners by causing unnecessary delays
in commercial shing operations,
creates a workplace hazard and jeop-
ardizes public safety. She presents
no evidence to support her con-
tention.
She describes an imaginary busy
day on Johnson Pier that in fact is
not far from the current situation. The
pier was built over 50 years ago to
unload sh into smaller sh trucks
than the large semi-trailers in use
today. This is why the Harbor District
has just submitted a $3,440,000
grant application to the Federal
Transportation Department for funds
(a) to expand the pier deck to improve
efciency and safety of sh loading
operations, and (b) to improve truck
access to and from the pier and public
safety.
The leases for each of the three
wholesale sh dealers on the Johnson
Pier include the option to add a hoist
with prior approval of the harbormas-
ter. One chose to use this opportuni-
ty; another already has two hoists;
and the third has as yet chosen not to
add another.
The Harbor District begins its
strategic planning process in May.
The public process that will inform
this planning effort will include
opportunities for shing industry
stakeholders together to participate
directly in identifying and working
toward improvements that will benet
themselves, the industry, the harbor
and the public generally.

Horsley retirement pay
Editor,
Michael Oberg brought up again the
issue of Supervisor Horsley wanting
to receive his supervisor pay and his
pension concurrently (letter to the
editor We need someone in the mid-
dle in the April 29 issue of the Daily
Journal.) As a reminder, Mr. Horsley
campaigned in 2010 with the promise
not to take both. Between the two, he
chose his retirement check, maybe
because it pays more.
Two years hence, around Christmas,
he announced a change of heart. He
had taken his pay 45 days prior,
thereby breaking his promise.
Despite the holiday, Michael Stogner
and I took notice and wrote letters to
the paper, highlighting Dons action.
Exposed, he thought twice about dou-
ble dipping and returned to receiving
one check.
Mr. Oberg asks, What is Mr.
Horsley supposed to do, retire and sit
around the house getting old, because
he is not allowed to do anything
else? Look, no one is forcing him to
retire; no one is forcing him to work.
Its his choice. But he should only
source one paycheck.
Finally, Oberg claims I am preach-
ing a double standard. He presumes if
I were Mr. Horsley, I would take both.
That is fantasy. In fact, as a coun-
cilmember, I get a stipend of $300 a
month for doing much of the same
work a supervisor does, but without a
full-time, dedicated, ofce staff, like
they enjoy. To support my family, I
also hold down a real job. The
point is, it is not expecting too much
of Mr. Horsley to choose between his
retirement pay or his supervisor pay.
As Benjamin Franklin posited, public
ofce was never intended for personal
prot .

Letters to the editor
R
obert Foucrault has served as
San Mateo Countys coroner
since 2001 and has received
an electoral challenge at every oppor-
tunity.
So this term should be no different.
This year he is being challenged by
Rick Dalton, whose primary focus
seems to be ensuring there is a chal-
lenge. Dalton also wants to ensure the
ofce is run well and with the proper
efciency. However, for the past four
years, Foucrault has been doing a
commendable job of doing just that.
The last four years have been busy
for the Coroners Ofce. With several
high-attention situations grabbing
headlines both here and abroad. The
Asiana Airlines crash and San Mateo-
Hayward Bridge limousine re in
2013 and the San Bruno pipeline
explosion and re in 2010 were all
high-stress situations with which the
ofce handled with professionalism.
The Asiana Airlines crash had
Foucrault at odds with San Francisco
city ofcials who took issue with his
ofces determination that a teenager
was alive on the tarmac at the crash
scene when she was run over by emer-
gency personnel and killed. Foucrault
stood his ground and stood by his
ofces report despite political pos-
turing by ofcials who did not want
the negative attention the report
brought.
Foucrault has also hit his stride
with the ofces operations and is
constantly looking at new ways to
save money and improve efciencies.
He would also like to bring the ofce
to Redwood City so those who rely on
public transportation will be able to
access the ofce more easily rather
than make the trip to the current
Tower Road location.
The countys coroner is not a med-
ical examiner and is largely an admin-
istrative position. There has been
some discussion of having it be
removed as an elected position, but
voters rejected the idea more than a
decade ago.
The ofce is well-run and able to
quickly adapt to changes and emer-
gency situations. While Foucrault has
made some mistakes in the past, he
has been quick to remedy them. And
no controversy or mistakes have been
raised in the past four years.
Simply put, Foucrault is hitting his
stride in the ofce and is proving to
be an accessible, forward-thinking,
scally conservative and responsible
leader for the San Mateo County
Coroners Ofce. He deserves to be
returned to ofce.
Foucrault for coroner Stress and our beliefs
I
think my life is trying to tell me something,
but I dont have time to listen. Ashleigh
Brilliant.
As I mentioned in my March 20 column, Spring
Break, among other monthly designations, April is
Stress Awareness Month. So, on this last day of April,
I offer the following:
Whether stress is produced by something environmen-
tal (the weather, noise, other people) or more commonly
by our mental processes (frustration, hostility, achieve-
ment, excitement), the response is similar. Our bodies
gear up for flight or fight, but it is up to us how upset we
become and how we handle stress.
We can use the energy created by stress as a precursor
to motivation and creativity, or as a heavy weight that
can drag us into illness. We also have the choice of
keeping the physical response to environmental stresses
from becoming exaggerat-
ed. It depends on how we
think about the situation,
and how we think depends
basically on our belief
system. As William James
once wrote: The greatest
weapon against stress is
our ability to choose one
thought over another.
Think about two types of
people who have extreme
belief systems that lead to
severe chronic stress. They
are those who think they
have to be in control all of
the time and those who let other people do their think-
ing for them. Both kinds of beliefs are based on extreme
insecurity and a great lack of healthy self-esteem. Both
operate from fear the first, fear of losing control and
the second, fear of being true to oneself. We can proba-
bly think of people we know who fit the following
descriptions often people who, if we were to ask
them, have no clue as to why they are so stressed or what
to do about it.
Type I
People have bad intentions and are out to get me. I
cannot trust anyone;
I have to outdo others at work, in lifestyle, at games,
etc;
There is only one way to do things and no one can do
them as well as I can;
I must not recognize any feelings except anger
which I am entitled to;
People and things must always be logical and consis-
tent according to my standards;
It is shameful to make mistakes, so I dont admit to
any;
I have to keep control of myself and everything else;
I must acquire authority at any cost physical
abuse, anger, intimidation, remoteness, charisma;
People and events must meet my expectations or I get
very upset; and
None of this is my fault its everyone else.
Its our fallibility and uncertainty that makes us
human. Our constant challenge is not to seek perfection
in ourselves and others; but to find ways to be happy in
an imperfect world. Gordon Livingston, M.D., Too
Soon Old, Too Late Smart.
Type II
I must always look to others for approval;
I must always put the needs of others before mine;
I am not as good as other people;
I must not express my feelings in fact, its best if
dont recognize them;
I dont deserve to be happy;
I must act nice all of the time no matter how I feel;
I do not have a right to my own opinion even if I
knew what it is;
Since I cant cope, I must rely on others to take care
of me;
I must never question authority from whatever direc-
tion it may come; and
Even the thought of change makes me feel very inse-
cure.
To deal with stress to handle the pressures from
inside and outside we first have to recognize where
its coming from and the way we view the world that may
be contributing to it. Changing our belief system to
alter how we think about and react to stress-producing
situations is the first step to a more relaxed and fulfill-
ing life.
As that wise quipster, Ashleigh Brilliant, would add:
The help I need most is help in admitting I need help.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEWYORK Solid earnings from
a broad swath of U.S. companies
pushed the stock market higher on
Tuesday.
Ameriprise Financial, a wealth man-
agement company, surged after post-
ing earnings that exceeded Wall
Streets expectations. The company
also said it would buy back an addi-
tional $2.5 billion of its own stock
and raise its dividend. Cummins, a
maker of large diesel engines, jumped
after the company said a surge in North
American sales sent its earnings high-
er.
Just over half the companies in the
Standard & Poors 500 index have now
released their earnings for the first
quarter and, with the occasional excep-
tion, the reports have contained
enough good news to drive stock
prices higher. The S&P 500 has gained
2.1 percent since April 14, and the
index is approaching its all-time high
following a pullback at the start of the
month prompted by a sell-off in for-
merly highying Internet and biotech-
nology stocks.
Corporate earnings are pretty
good, said Randy Frederick,
Managing Director of Trading and
Derivatives at the Schwab Center for
Financial Research. Once the market
got back on its feet after that dip that
we had, it seems to be poised to hit a
new record high very soon.
The Standard & Poors 500 index
rose 8.90 points, or 0.5 percent, to
1, 878. 33. The index is 12 points
below its record high of 1,890.89 set
April 2.
The Dow Jones industrial average
climbed 86.63 points, or 0.5 percent,
to 16,535.37. The Nasdaq composite
gained 29.14 points, or 0.7 percent,
to 4,103.54.
Analysts currently expect earnings
for S&P500 companies to grow by 1.4
percent in the rst quarter, according to
data from S&P Capital IQ. Although
that is lower than the 5.2 percent earn-
ings growth recorded in the same peri-
od a year ago, expectations for the
period were low after an unusually
harsh winter.
Two weeks ago, analysts were
expecting an overall decline in earn-
ings, but those expectations have
risen as more companies have reported
earnings.
Companies have learned a new reli-
gion, said Chris Bertelsen, chief
investment ofcer at Global Financial
Private Capital, a wealth management
company. That is, underpromise and
overdeliver.
Ameriprise rose $6.04, or 5.8 per-
cent, to $109.55. Financial stocks
rose almost 1 percent, the biggest
gain of the 10 industry groups that
make up the S&P 500.
Cummins rose $5.61, or 3.9 per-
cent, to $150.81 after the company
posted its results and raised its sales
outlook due to improving demand in
North America.
Coach, a maker of handbags and
other luxury goods, was among the
days losers. The companys stock fell
$4.71, or 9.3 percent, to $45.71 after
Coach said its earnings declined in the
rst three months of the year. Sales in
North America came under pressure
from competitors like Michael Kors.
Investors get more information on
the U.S. economy and the Federal
Reserves thinking on Wednesday.
The Commerce Department will
issue the rst of three estimates of how
fast the U.S. economy grew in the
January-March quarter. Economists
say a slowdown last quarter, caused
mainly by a severe winter, is likely
giving way to stronger growth that
should endure through the rest of the
year.
The Fed will release a statement after
the conclusion of their its two-day
meeting. Most economists expect that
the Fed will reduce its monthly bond
purchases by another $10 billion, to
$45 billion a month. The Feds stimu-
lus has helped underpin a five-year
rally in stocks.
Stocks gain on earnings; Cummins, Ameriprise rise
Apple versus Samsung case goes to jury
SAN JOSE It was Apple versus Samsung but Google
loomed large Tuesday during closing arguments at the
monthlong federal trial involving claims of patent
infringement exchanged by the worlds two largest smart-
phone makers.
Alawyer for Apple accused Samsung of slavishly copy-
ing key features of its iPhone and iPad products and demand-
ed $2.2 billion in damages.
An attorney for Samsung denied the allegations and argued
that its Google-developed software differs from Apples
operating system.
In his closing argument, lawyer William Price referred to
an email from Apple founder Steve Jobs indicating that he
had ordered employees to wage a holy war against Google
and its Android system, believing it was a rip-off of Apples
operating system.
Price said that was the sole reason Apple led the lawsuit
against Samsung.
EBay takes first quarter loss on tax charge
NEWYORK EBay recorded a loss in the rst-quarter due
to a hefty tax charge on foreign earnings, but revenue
jumped in part because of its thriving PayPal payments
business.
Adjusted results beat expectations but the company
offered weak second-quarter guidance and shares fell 4.5 per-
cent in aftermarket trading.
The results come as PayPal, which eBay bought for $1.3
billion in late 2002, gained 5.8 million new active regis-
tered accounts to end the quarter up 16 percent to 148 mil-
lion.
The business is now growing faster than the companys
core e-commerce site: Payments revenue rose 19 percent to
$1.85 billion, about 43 percent of total revenue.
Meanwhile, its core marketplaces revenue rose 10 percent
to $2.16 billion.
Netflix pays Verizon for better Internet access
SAN FRANCISCO Netix will pay Verizon
Communications to help clear up some of the congestion
that has been bogging down its Internet video service.
The deal marks the second time in less than three months
that Netix Inc. has anted up for a more direct connection to
a major Internet service, even though CEO Reed Hastings
objects to having to pay for better access.
Netix negotiated a similar arrangement with Comcast
Corp. in February. The nancial details of Netixs partner-
ships with Comcast and Verizon Communications Inc.
havent been disclosed.
Twitter stock down amid user growth concerns in 1Q
SAN FRANCISCO Twitter booked a net loss in the rst
quarter because of stock compensation costs, but its results
surpassed Wall Streets expectations thanks to a sharp
increase in advertising revenue.
But shares of the short messaging service dropped
sharply after the results came out because of investor con-
cern about its ability to grow its user base and keep its exist-
ing users engaged.

NEW YORK Chipotles coming
price hikes could hit steak lovers par-
ticularly hard.
The Mexican food chain said earlier
this month that it plans to start charg-
ing more for its burritos, bowls and
tacos in coming weeks as it faces ris-
ing costs for ingredients. On Tuesday,
Chief Financial Ofcer Jack Hartung
noted that the chain doesnt currently
charge a whole lot more for its steak
lling, even though beef costs have
climbed considerably.
Theres a very narrow gap between
our steak burrito and our chicken burri-
to. Were going to widen that, Hartung
said at the Barclays Retail and
Consumer Discretionary Conference in
New York City. Were going to allow
our customers to choose whether they
want to pay the higher price of steak.
Hartung also said the price hike
would be more like 4 percent to 6 per-
cent, or 32 cents to 48 cents, assuming
the cost of a burrito is $8. In the past,
executives had said they were consider-
ing a hike of 3 percent to 5 percent, or
24 cents to 40 cents. Chipotle says it
will be the rst national price hike in
three years.
He did not specify how much more
prices would rise for steak than for
chicken.
Fast-food and restaurant chains are
facing rising costs for beef, given the
reductions in U.S. cattle inventory in
recent years. In April, Hartung said
Chipotles beef prices were up 25 per-
cent compared with the prices it was
paying in the fourth quarter of last
year.
Chipotle, which has more than
1,600 locations, isnt the only one
encouraging customers to switch to
chicken as the cost of beef climbs.
Burger Kings head of North American
operations, Alex Macedo, has also
noted that the chain has been able to
maintain its protability in part by
marketing chicken items more aggres-
sively.
Chipotles price hike to hit steak lovers harder

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON U.S. home price
gains cooled in February from the pre-
vious year for the third month in a row,
as harsh winter weather and high buy-
ing costs have slowed sales.
The Standard & Poors/Case-Shiller
20-city home price index rose 12.9
percent in February compared with 12
months earlier. While healthy, that is
down from a 13.2 percent gain in
January.
And home prices fell in 13 of the 20
cities in February compared with the
previous month. The index is not
adjusted for seasonal variations, so
those declines partly reflect weaker
sales in the winter.
In addition to bad weather, sales
have been held back by a limited sup-
ply of available homes, which has
forced potential buyers to bid up
prices. Thats caused prices to increase
even as sales have slowed. Sales of
existing homes fell to their lowest
level in 20 months in March.
With sales slowing, many econo-
mists forecast that price gains will
keep dropping this year into the mid-
single digits.
Higher prices may also be discourag-
ing investors from buying homes,
contributing to slower sales. Investors
accounted for 17 percent of sales in
March, according to the National
Association of Realtors, down from 21
percent in February.
The housing market is showing
signs of slowing, but this was expect-
ed and is part of a broader return to nor-
mal, said Stan Humphries, chief econ-
omist at real estate data provider
Zillow.

NEWYORK Issuing about the strongest
rebuke that he could, NBA Commissioner
Adam Silver banned Los Angeles Clippers
owner Donald Sterling for life Tuesday for
making racist comments in a recorded conver-
sation, the rst step toward forcing a sale of
the club and permanently removing Sterling
from the league.
Silver also ned Sterling $2.5 million, and
again expressed outrage.
I fully expect to get the
support I need from the
other NBA owners to
remove him, Silver said.
Several owners immedi-
ately chimed in with sup-
port of Silvers decision.
Sterling, the leagues
longest-tenured owner and
someone with an estimated
net worth of about $2 bil-
lion, did not offer any
immediate comment.
The penalties, which
were announced only three
days after the scandal
broke, are the harshest ever
issued by the league and
among the stiffest punish-
ments ever given to an
owner in professional
sports. Silver said a league investigation
found that Sterling was in fact the person on
the audiotapes that were released over the
weekend and immediately sent shock waves
throughout the game.
We stand together in condemning Mr.
Sterlings views, Silver said. They simply
have no place in the NBA.
Sterling acknowledged he was the man on

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES Hours after owner
Donald Sterling was banned from the NBA
for life, the Los Angeles Clippers returned to
an energized Staples Center and beat the
Golden State Warriors 113-103 on Tuesday
night to take a 3-2 lead in their rst-round
playoff series.
DeAndre Jordan had 25 points, a playoff
career high, and 18 rebounds while Chris
Paul scored 20 points.
Clippers coach Doc Rivers high-fived
each of his players near the bench in an
uncommon display of excitement as the
nal seconds ticked away. Jamal Crawford of
the Clippers hugged and slapped hands with
fans at courtside on the way to the locker
room.
I thought they were great, Rivers said of
his players. I thought they were tired a lot,
and that was the result of the last few days. I
just thought they had great mental tough-
ness. They wanted to will this game, and Im
just proud of them.
Commissioner Adam Silver also fined
Sterling $2.5 million and called on NBA
owners to force him to sell the team for mak-
ing racist comments.
The Clippers were greeted with a standing
ovation when they came out for pregame
warmups. They kept on their Clippers
warmup suits, unlike Sunday in Oakland,
when, in a silent protest against Sterling,
they tossed their sweatsuits bearing the
team logo onto the court and went through
their pregame routine with their red shirts on
inside out.
Players from both teams wore black
socks.
With so many sponsors bailing on the
Clippers, there were few advertisements on
the video boards. A few non-digital signs
were covered over.
The PAannouncer constantly reminded the
crowd, We Are One.
One fan wore a T-shirt that read: Sterling
Out Equality In.
The Clippers are on the brink of just their
third playoff series victory since Sterling

SAN JOSE It should come as no shock
that the Los Angeles Kings and San Jose
Sharks are preparing for a Game 7 of their
rst-round series considering how tightly
contested this erce California rivalry has
been over the last few years.
The surprise is how the teams got to
Wednesday nights win-or-go-home game.
The Sharks were dominant early, winning
the rst three games and making former
playoff MVP Jonathan
Quick look rather pedes-
trian as he allowed 16
goals in those losses.
But the Kings respond-
ed to win three straight
games by three goals to
force the showdown in
San Jose for a spot in the
second round against
Anaheim.
We understand whats at stake, Sharks
forward Joe Pavelski said. There was the
possibility the series was going to go to
seven. We probably didnt think it was
going to get there this way, but were here
now and guys will be ready to play.
The Kings are the ninth team to force a
Game 7 after losing the rst three games.
Three of the previous eight nished the job
although the Sharks can take solace in the
fact that they avoided that same collapse in

The Carlmont boys tennis team eked out a
4-3 win over Aragon in their rst meeting of
the season March 25.
Since then, its been all Aragon. After beat-
ing the Scots in their nal regular-season
meeting last week, the Dons downed Carlmont
again in the championship match of the
Peninsula Athletic League Team Tournament
Tuesday, beating the Scots 6-1 to punch their
ticket to the Central Coast Section tournament
for the third year in a row.
Aragon coach Dave Owdom said the key
coming into Tuesdays title match was to win
at least one of the doubles matches because its
hard to expect a sweep at the four singles
spots.
Turns out, Owdom didnt have to worry. The
Dons dominated the singles, winning all four
while losing only 11 games.
My singles guys stepped up and did a won-
derful job, Owdom said. My numbers 3 and 4
guys were on top of their games.
Jonathon Liu, Aragons No. 3 singles play-
er, was the rst match off as he cruised to a 6-
0, 6-0 victory. Mathew Fowler, at No. 4 sin-
gles, was just as dominant, losing only one
game while winning 6-0, 6-1.
Aragons No. 1 singles Devon Hughes, who
will attend University of North Carolina in the
fall on a full academic scholarship, possibly
played his nal home match. He made sure he
went out on top, winning 6-1, 6-4.
This last week, its the best Ive seen
[Hughes] play, Owdom said.
Isaac Wang completed the singles sweep for
the Dons, winning at No. 2 singles 6-4, 6-1.
Wang could have won much more convinc-
ingly, as he led 5-0 in the rst set before
Carlmonts Alex Yang rallied with four
straight wins to close to 5-4 before Wang

Thank you thank
you thank you.
This is what I hear
over and over, year
after year, from
families that we
serve. Either
verbally or in hand-written cards or letters
families say thank you: Thank for your
help; Thank you for all you have done to
make this process easier; Thank you for
making this final tribute to my mother one
which will be fondly remembered; Thank
you for your advice; Thank you for being
there for us at a time we needed you most;
Thank you for making it all easy for us;
Thank you for being a friend, etc. To hear
Thank you time and time again is a
confirmation for me that our Chapel of the
Highlands crew is doing their best to serve
families whove been through a death, in an
appropriate and professional manner, and
that we are doing the right thing in caring
for families during a difficult situation, in
turn making it more of a comfort for them.
Normally saying Youre welcome is
the correct response. Youre welcome, or
You are welcome, can be taken a number
of different ways. Generally it means you
are always a welcome guest. It can also be
taken as a blessing meaning you wish
wellness on the person who thanked you.
Wishing wellness or health to anyone is a
nice gesture. In recent years though we all
have witnessed the term Youre welcome
being substituted with Thank you back at
the person who is doing the thanking. This
is OK, but saying Youre welcome first
is taken as a hospitable and warm gesture.
Now that Thank you and Youre
welcome have been established, I would
like to say thank you back to the families we
serve: Thank you for supporting the Chapel
of the Highlands. Thank you for your
faithful patronage. Because of you we have
been able to continue with our high
standards and excellent level of service for
many years, since 1952. Thank you to those
families who weve helped so many times in
the past. Thank you to the new families
whove discovered that we offer them
respect and provide the dignified care that
their loved one deserves.
Your support, and the continued interest
from the community in our service, is what
keeps us going strong and available when
we are needed. Our costs have always been
considered fair, and the funds taken in for
our services are also very much appreciated.
Those Chapel of the Highlands funds along
with our support sifts back to the community
in different ways. Donations to local causes,
along with the donation of time through
membership in service organizations such as
Lions, I.C.F., Historical Society, Chamber
of Commerce, etc. is natural for us. Giving
back as a volunteer via these groups helps in
binding us with our neighbors, together
creating a better community for the future.
All in all there are many ways to say
Thank you. Doing so in a variety of ways
can create a circle of gratitude, in turn
making our community a better place.
If you ever wish to discuss cremation,
funeral matters or want to make pre-
planning arrangements please feel free to
call me and my staff at the CHAPEL OF
THE HIGHLANDS in Millbrae at (650)
588-5116 and we will be happy to guide you
in a fair and helpful manner. For more info

Local sports roundup
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES A former assistant
coach for the Golden State Warriors report-
edly recorded conversations of coaches
and players without their knowledge
before being red by the team earlier this
month.
ESPN, citing anonymous sources,
reported Tuesday that Darren Erman secret-
ly recorded coaches meetings, conversa-
tions between coaches and players, and
informal discussions. Its unclear what
Erman did with the alleged recordings.
Golden State red Erman on April 5 for
what the team called a violation of com-
pany policy. The Warriors neither con-
rmed nor denied the report Tuesday, say-
ing only that they were unaware of the
violation, and when made aware, we took
immediate action.
Erman already has landed a job with
another team. Aspokesman for the Boston
Celtics conrmed to The Associated Press
that the team hired Erman as an NBAscout.
Erman was in his third season with the
Warriors after spending four years with the
Celtics, where he worked under Doc
Rivers, who is now the coach of the Los
Angeles Clippers. Erman also coached the
Warriors summer league championship
team in Las Vegas last year.
Erman was the second assistant dis-
missed from Mark Jacksons staff this sea-
son. Jackson reassigned Brian Scalabrine
a former Celtics player to the teams
NBA Development League affiliate in
Santa Cruz on March 25 because of what
Jackson called a difference in philoso-
phies.
At Golden States shootaround before
Game 5 in Los Angeles on Tuesday,
Jackson declined comment when asked
about the reports but said Erman is an out-
standing coach who did a great job.
Jackson also reiterated that the moves
involving two of his assistants which
have fueled discussion about his own job
status after the season are not represen-
tative of a dysfunctional atmosphere on
his staff.
There was no dysfunction, Jackson
said. I had a great staff. Its been a great
year, and we are 2-2 with an opportunity to
win Game 5 against this Clippers team.
Its been a great year for us on the court,
and we are together as a staff and as a team.
Nothing has changed.
You can make a mistake. That doesnt
mean thats my dysfunction. Its docu-
mented.

ARLINGTON, Texas Derek Norris drove
in three runs with a pair of doubles, Scott
Kazmir outpitched Martin Perez and the
Oakland Athletics beat the Texas Rangers 9-
3 on Tuesday night.
The As went ahead to stay on Norris two-
run double in the rst off Perez (4-1), who
had pitched 26 consecutive scoreless
innings over his previous three starts.
The left-hander had thrown three-hit
shutouts his last two games, including at
Oakland six days earlier.
Kazmir (4-0) tied for the AL lead in wins.
He needed 95 pitches to get through ve
innings, but left with a 9-3 lead. The lefty
struck out four and walked one.
When Norris added an RBI double to make
it 4-0 in the third, the As already had six
hits off Perez, who started the night with an
AL-best 1.42 ERA.
The eight runs allowed by Perez were two
more than his combined total his rst ve
starts, and his ERA more than doubled to
2.95. He struck out three and walked three in
4 2-3 innings.
Oakland, swept in three games at home by
the Rangers last week, has won the rst two
games in this series that started with the
teams tied atop the AL West.
At 17-10, the As have the best record in
the American League. Texas (15-12) has its
rst three-game losing streak this season.
As right-hander Sonny Gray, who lost in
the matchup against Perez last week,
reached four wins by throwing a three-hit
shutout in the series opener. Gray beat
Rangers ace Yu Darvish, who with 3 1-3
innings had the shortest start in three sea-
sons since coming from Japan.
Perez and Torontos Mark Buehrle were the
only other AL pitchers who went into
Tuesdays games with four wins.
When Craig Gentry led off the second with
a triple, the As already had three hits
matching through seven batters what they
got against Perez last week. Gentry scored
on a groundout by Josh Reddick, who added
a two-run single in Oaklands ve-run out-
burst in the fth.
Perez was gone after issuing a bases-
loaded walk to Alberto Callaspo in the fth.
Pinch-hitter Brandon Moss then drew a
bases-loaded walk on an eight-pitch at-bat
against reliever Jason Frasor before
Reddicks single made it 9-1.
Alex Rios had an RBI double for Texas in
the fourth, but was thrown out trying to
come home on a groundball. After the
Rangers had consecutive singles to start the
fth, Elvis Andrus sent home a run on a
groundout and Prince Fielder had an RBI sin-
gle.
NOTES: It was Texas manager Ron
Washingtons 62nd birthday. The Rangers
are 0-6 in games on his birthday.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. Trainer Art Sherman
was concerned Tuesday morning when he
found California Chrome sound asleep.
You dont want a groggy colt, with the
Kentucky Derby just days away.
Turns out, the probable Derby favorite
was still on West Coast time after ying east
on Monday. While 5 a.m. was rise-and-shine
time in Kentucky, it was still the middle of
the night back at his California base.
I was concerned he might be tired,
Sherman said. Then I got to thinking it was
only 2 oclock California time. He was just
sacked out, sleeping away.
The Santa Anita Derby winner quickly
snapped to, and headed out to the track for
his rst tour of Churchill Downs. Shrugging
off any jet lag, California Chrome was alert
and eager for a jog over the surfaced still
muddy from Mondays heavy rain.
My exercise rider said it was the best the
horse has felt in a long time, Sherman said.
He enjoyed the track a lot. He was different,
more aggressive since he got here. So that
was a good sign.
In a break with tradition, California
Chrome did not wear a yellow Derby saddle
cloth because of a typo. His name was mis-
spelled as Califorina Chrome. Churchill
Downs has ordered a corrected one.
The chestnut colt with the prominent
white blaze completed his serious training
at Los Alamitos Race Course before heading
to Kentucky. The mission for Sherman and
California Chrome

closed him out and then won the second set easily.
We were a little lacking in singles, said Carlmont coach
Amina Doar Halsey, whose Scots squad has been without reg-
ular No. 1 singles player Vrain Ahuja, who strained his back a
couple weeks ago.
(But Aragon) played awesome singles today.
Carlmont picked up its lone win at No. 1 doubles, where Ben
Knoot and Sohun Awsare turned the tables on Aragons Landers
Ngrichamat and Alex Ilyin, beating the Aragon pair 6-1, 6-2.
[Knoot and Awsare] are a great team together, Doar Halsey
said.
The two tandems hooked up in last weeks regular-season
match and Doar Halsey said her duo was off their game.
Tuesday, it was Aragons turn to struggle.
It was a bad day (a week ago). Today was a bad day for
[Aragon], Doar Halsey said. This time around, it was the
direct opposite. It just shows tennis can change day to day.
The nal two doubles matches were the most competitive of
the day, with Aragon winning at both No. 2 and No. 3.
The No. 2 tandem of Tony Wang and Sameer Jain trailed
throughout the rst set. They were down 6-5, but won the 12th
game to tie the set at 6 to force a tiebreaker before prevailing
7-3. Things went much smoother in the second, with the
Aragon team winning 6-4.
The No. 3 doubles match saw Aragons Fabio Gallardo and
William Miyahira, and Carlmonts Bobbie Goldie and
Jonathon Li splitting the rst two sets. Gallardo and Miyahira
won the rst set 6-4, but Goldie and Li rallied to rout the Aragon
tandem 6-0 in the second set.
With the team match already decided, the two played a third-
set, super-tiebreaker. In the rst-to-10-points nale, Gallardo
and Miyahira pulled out a 10-7 victory.
While Menlo-Atherton and Aragon have secured spots in
CCS, Carlmont is on the bubble. Doar Halsey said, however,
she will attend the seeding meeting and lobby for her teams
inclusion.
Theres always a chance (to make CCS), Doar Halsey said.
Ill ght for my team.

Crawford scored 19 points for the

Grifn scored eight points in the rst 6

WARRIORS
Real Madrid beats Bayern Munich
4-0, gains Champions League nal
MUNICH Sergio Ramos and Cristiano
Ronaldo scored two goals apiece Tuesday,
and Real Madrid advanced to the Champions
League nal by beating defending champion
Bayern Munich 4-0.
Madrid completed a 5-0 total goals victo-
ry and will now play Chelsea or Atletico
Madrid in the May 24 nal in Lisbon. This
was Bayerns worst home defeat in the com-
petition and it equaled its biggest loss over-
all 4-0 at Barcelona in 2009.
Madrid had never won in Munich in 10
previous matches, losing nine of them.
This time, however, Carlo Ancelottis team
put its stamp on the game early in an over-
whelmingly efcient display.
Ramos headed home goals in the 16th and
20th minutes, and Ronaldo raised his tally
to a competition record 16 goals for the sea-
son.
Madrid is in its 13th nal and one win
from a record 10th title. Madrid had lost
three consecutive seminals, including a
2012 shootout when Ramos missed a penal-
ty kick.
This was a harsh defeat for Bayern coach
Pep Guardiola, who had so much success
against Madrid when he was in charge of
Barcelona. Bayern was trying to become the
rst team to win two straight Champions
League titles.
Madrids sweeping, fast counterattacks
paced by Ronaldo, Karim Benzema, Gareth
Bale and Angel Di Maria and tenacious
tackling posed a huge problem for Bayerns
defense.

SAN FRANCISCO Angel Pagan led off
the rst inning with a homer, Buster Posey
connected two batters later, and Yusmeiro
Petit went six innings in a spot start replac-
ing injured Matt Cain and the San Francisco
Giants beat the San Diego Padres 6-0 on
Tuesday night.
Cain was scratched after cutting the tip of
his right index finger. Manager Bruce
Bochy said before the game that Cain was in
the clubhouse kitchen and had a knife in his
hand when the utensil dropped. Cain tried to
catch it and cut his nger about a half-inch.
He is expected to make his next start.
Petit (2-1) didnt allow a hit until Everth
Cabreras leadoff single in the fourth.
Hector Sanchez, starting at catcher with
Posey at rst base, hit a two-run single and
a sacrice y.
Petit allowed three hits with four strike-
outs and no walks.
It was his rst start not allowing a run
since he tossed a 1-hitter last Sept. 6 at
home against Arizona. He lowered his ERA
from 3.68 to 2.61.
Jean Machi pitched two innings and
Santiago Casilla nished the 2-hour, 28-
minute, three-hitter, San Franciscos second
shutout this season. The Padres were
blanked for the fourth time.
The Giants said Cain wouldnt require
stitches on his pitching hand.
Its on the forenger about half an inch,
but its in a bad spot there, Bochy said.
Itll be closed up in a couple days and he
should be ne.
Cain, who pitched a perfect game two
years ago at AT&T Park, will nish winless
in April. He is 0-3 with a 4.35 ERA in ve
starts.
Pagan sent a 1-1 pitch from Eric Stults (1-
3) just inside the left-eld foul pole for his
second homer, then Posey hit his sixth one
out later.
It was Pagans seventh career leadoff
homer and first since May 1, 2013, at
Arizona.
The Giants hit two homers in the rst
inning at AT&T Park for the rst time since
Fred Lewis and Bengie Molina did so on
July 22, 2008, against Washington.
San Diegos Yamani Grandal made his rst
career start at rst base as manager Bud
Black gave struggling Yonder Alonso a
break.
Stults was done after 2 2-3 innings,
allowing ve runs and seven hits.
San Diego will try to win Wednesdays
rubber game for their rst road series victo-
ry this year and snap a nine-series winless
streak at AT&T Park dating to a three-game
series here from Oct. 1-3, 2010, one that
sealed the Giants division title on the way
to the citys first World Series champi-
onship.
NOTES: Home run king Barry Bonds

2011 when they rebounded from three
straight losses to beat Detroit 3-2 at home
to advance to the Western Conference nals.
San Jose jumped on top early that game
with two rst-period goals before holding
on for the win.
We were a condent bunch, Sharks cap-
tain Joe Thornton recalled. We felt like our
game was missing in a couple games, but
then we slowly got it back. This year is kind
of the same way.
Getting an early lead Wednesday would
most definitely ease any nerves as the
Sharks havent had a lead at any point in
those three losses.
That has allowed the normally stingy
Kings to tighten things up even more defen-
sively, and eliminate all those odd-man
rushes that fueled San Joses 13-goal out-
burst in winning the rst two games.
I think our attitude has changed within
the last three games, Kings forward Justin
Williams said. Our backs are against the
wall. Its win or go home, so we have a lot
of character, weve stepped up so far, and we
need to keep doing it.
Williams scored two goals apiece in
games 4 and 6. He also scored both Los
Angeles goals in a 2-1 win in Game 7 of a
second-round series against the Sharks last
year, giving him ve goals and four assists
in four career Game 7s that were all won by
his team.
Another performance like that could help
the Kings join Philadelphia (2010), the
New York Islanders (1975) and Toronto
(1942) as the only teams to overcome a 3-0
decit to win a best-of-seven series.
I think history is something we look at,
look back when were done playing and say,
We did that, but thats not really some-
thing were thinking about, Williams said.
Weve spotted them three games, and weve
been able to come back to tie it, but it does-
nt mean anything to us if we dont win it.
This series has played out in stark con-
trast to last years roller-coaster seven-
game series won by Los Angeles when goals
were at a premium and the home team won
every game.
The Sharks outscored the Kings 13-5 to
win the rst two games at home and took a
stranglehold on the series when Patrick
Marleaus overtime goal gave them a 4-3
win in Los Angeles in Game 3.
But the Kings responded with a 6-3 win in
Game 4 and a 3-0 victory in San Jose in
Game 5 before scoring three goals in a span
of 2:46 midway through the third period to
win 4-1 on Monday night.
Los Angeles has held San Joses stars like
Thornton, Pavelski, Marleau and Logan
Couture in check the last three games.
We have to get a winning performance
out of a lot of players who maybe have not
had that over the last little bit but were
counting on it tomorrow, coach Todd
McLellan said.
McLellan would not say which goalie he
will be counting on. Rookie Alex Stalock
replaced Antti Niemi in goal to start Game 6
and stopped 26 of 30 shots but kept San
Jose in the game early.
NOTES: McLellan did not have an update
on the status of star D Marc-Edouard Vlasic,
who missed Game 6 with an upper-body
injury. ... The Kings could be without D
Willie Mitchell, who left in the second peri-
od Monday with an undisclosed injury.

the tape, Silver said.
Sterling still owns the team, but going
forward he is immediately barred from
attending any NBA games or practices,
being present at any Clippers ofce or facil-
i t y, participating in any business or player
personnel decisions involving the team, or
being part of any league business.
Its unclear how Sterling will respond.
This league is far bigger than any one
owner, any one coach and any one player,
said Silver, who as commissioner has broad
powers under whats typically called the
best interest of the game clause of the
NBAconstitution.
But Silver works for the owners, and he
will need 75 percent of them if all 30
teams vote, hell need 23 on his side to
force Sterling out of the league completely.
The ne will be donated to organizations
dedicated to anti-discrimination and toler-
ance efforts that will be jointly selected by
the NBAand the Players Association, Silver
said.
This has all happened in three days, and
so I am hopeful there will be no long-term
damage to the league and to the Clippers
organization, Silver said. But as I said
earlier, Im outraged so I certainly under-
stand other peoples outrage. This will take
some time and appropriate healing will be
necessary.
After the announcement, the Clippers
website had a simple message: We are
one, it read.
We wholeheartedly support and embrace
the decision by the NBAand Commissioner
Adam Silver today. Now the healing process
begins, the Clippers added in a statement.
Sterlings comments were released over
the weekend by TMZ and Deadspin, and
numerous NBA owners and players have
condemned them. Even President Barack
Obama weighed in on the crisis, the rst of
Silvers brief tenure as commissioner.
Commissioner Silver thank you for pro-
tecting our beautiful and powerful league!!
Great leader!!, Miami Heat star LeBron
James wrote on Twitter.
The leagues investigation started
Saturday and players immediately began
expressing intense displeasure with the sit-
uation, even going so far as to ask
Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson to get
involved on behalf of the players union.
When one rotten apple does something,
or if you see cancer, youve got to cut it out
really quickly, Kevin Johnson said at a
news conference in Los Angeles, anked by
NBA legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and play-
ers like Steve Nash, Tyson Chandler, Luke
Walton and Roger Mason Jr., among others.
And Commissioner Silver did that in real
time. Were so proud and thankful for him.
The sanctions came a few hours before the
Clippers were to play Golden State in Game
5 of a tied-up Western Conference rst-round
playoff series.
When you get this many Lakers to stand
up for the Clippers, you know something
big is happening in L.A., Los Angeles
Mayor Eric Garcetti said. We are a single
team here today, a team not only speaking
out for what were against racism, hatred,
bigotry, intolerance but what were for.
Were for great basketball.
Before Silver took the podium, Dallas
Mavericks owner Mark Cuban tweeted out a
photo of the NBA Constitution, saying It
exists for a reason.

WHATS ON TAP
his team will be keeping California Chrome happy and
focused from now until Saturday. Most of the remaining
drills will involve getting the horse familiar with the pad-
dock and starting gate.
Sherman doesnt believe the noise from an anticipated
crowd of over 140,000 on Saturday will bother his horse.
He loves people, the trainer said. Hes a people horse.
He had a lot of attention in California before he left. There
were wall-to-wall people all around him and he never turned
a hair.
This will be the rst time California Chrome, winner of
his last four races by a combined 24 1/4 lengths, races out-
side his home state.
New York state of mind
Funny Cide blazed the trail in 2003, becoming the rst
and still only New York-bred horse to capture the Derby.
This year, there are two contenders from the Empire State:
Samraat and Uncle Sigh. Rick Violette, Samraats trainer,
sees that as evidence the states breeding program is on the
upswing.
There is no question the breeders in New York have
stepped up, he said. Weve been encouraging them to do
that. There is money there to help improve the quality of
the New York bred, and I think this is a great example of it.

LOUISVILLE, Miss. Ruth Bennett died
clutching the last child left at her day care
center as a tornado wiped the building off its
foundation. Areghter who came upon the
body gently pulled the toddler from her arms.
It makes you just take a breath now, said
next-door neighbor Kenneth Billingsley,
who witnessed the scene at what was left of
Ruths Child Care Center in this logging
town of 6,600. It makes you pay attention
to life.
Bennett, 53, was among at least 35 people
killed in a two-day outbreak of twisters and
other violent weather that pulverized homes
from the Midwest to the Deep South. The
child, whose name was not released, was
alive when she was pulled from Bennetts
arms and was taken to a hospital. Her condi-
tion was not known.
As crews in Mississippi and Alabama
turned from search-and-rescue efforts to
cleanup, the South braced for a third round of
potentially deadly weather on Tuesday.
Tornadoes usually strike in the late afternoon
and evening.
One of the hardest-hit areas in Monday
evenings barrage of twisters was Tupelo,
Miss., where a gas station looked as if it had
been stepped on by a giant.
Francis Gonzalez, who also owns a con-
venience store and Mexican restaurant
attached to the service station, took cover
with her three children and two employees in
the stores cooler as the roof over the gas
pumps was reduced to aluminum shards.
My Lord, how can all this happen in just
one second? she said in Spanish.
On Tuesday, the growl of chain saws cut
through the otherwise still, hazy morning in
Tupelo. Massive oak trees, knocked over
like toys, blocked roads. Neighbors helped
one another cut away limbs.
This does not even look like a place that
Im familiar with right now, said Pam
Montgomery, walking her dog in her neigh-
borhood. You look down some of the
streets, and it doesnt even look like there is
a street.
By the governments preliminary count,
11 tornadoes including one that killed 15
people in Arkansas struck the nations
midsection on Sunday, and at least 25 rav-
aged the South on Monday, the National
Weather Service Storm Prediction Center
said.

KENNESAW, Ga. A FedEx employee
wearing ammunition draped across his chest
like Rambo opened re Tuesday at a pack-
age-sorting center outside Atlanta, wound-
ing six people before committing suicide,
police and witnesses said.
In addition to a shotgun, the gunman
also had an undisclosed number of
Molotov cocktails, but he did not use
them in the attack, police said.
The suspect, identied by police as 19-
year-old Geddy Kramer of Acworth, was
found dead inside. He worked as a package
handler at the sprawling facility, Cobb
County police Sgt. Dana Pierce said.
Investigators have an idea of what his
motive may have been, but they were not
prepared to disclose it yet, Pierce said.
Three of the victims were critically
wounded, though only one remained in crit-
ical condition by late afternoon. Police say
three were in stable condition, and two oth-
ers were treated and released.
Kramer rst drove his car to a security
shack outside the building and shot a guard
there before heading inside, the news
release said.
David Titus, a FedEx truck driver, said he
was just coming to work around 6 a.m. when
he saw a security guard shot in the abdomen.
He said he heard more gunre later from
inside the building.
It was chaos, Titus said. Everyone was
running, ducking and hiding, trying to get
out of there.
FedEx clerk Liza Aiken said she was work-
ing when she heard something drop, looked
to her left and saw the gunman.
He had bullets strapped across his chest
like Rambo and held a knife, Aiken said at
the entrance to a parking lot where employ-
ees had gathered after the attack. Before she
could continue, a woman wearing a FedEx
jacket told Aiken to stop talking and led her
away.

LOS ANGELES Every time a bartender
at trendy Los Angeles fusion eatery Luna
Park squeezes a shot of lime into a drink
these days, owner Peter Kohtz says he
winces a little.
Luna Park, known for its large selection
of craft cocktails, is one of thousands of
restaurants from coast to coast that have
fallen victim to the Great Green Citrus
Crisis of 2014 a severe shortage of limes
that has meant that the fruit has skyrocket-
ed in price in recent weeks.
Acase of 200 or so fetches between $80
and $130 now, up from about $15 last year
the result of a perfect storm of circum-
stances from citrus disease that struck
Florida in 2001 and wiped out most lime
groves to ooding to the efforts of drug car-
tels to disrupt supplies in Mexico, the
biggest U.S. supplier.
The cost might not seem like that big of a
deal until one realizes that its lime juice
thats squeezed into every margarita, mojito
or mai tai. Its also lime thats chopped up
and mixed with fresh fish to create
ceviche. Its lime, mixed with avo-
cado, that makes up guacamole
a mainstay at every
Mexican restaurant.
Its just one of those
things that you take
for granted. You
never really
think about
it because

t e n d e r s
squeeze an
entire limes
worth of juice
into most specialty drinks.
So far, the price spike doesnt seem to
have been passed on widely to consumers,
according to industry ofcials, but
people are beginning to notice it
in other ways.
Alaska Airlines stopped put-
ting limes in in-
ight bever-

At a
recent

me e t i n g
of the
C a l i f o r n i a
Restaurant Associations
board of directors, association spokes-
woman Angie Pappas said limes were
noticeably absent from the buffet bar,
which featured Mexican food.
One of the luncheon attendees, a Southern
California restaurateur, told her he is offer-
ing a free appetizer to any customer who
brings in a bag of limes from their backyard
tree. In Phoenix, the Arizona Republic
reports that a bar and restaurant group is
offering a free cocktail, glass of wine or
beer to anyone who brings in 5 pounds of
limes.
Which raises the question, if limes grow
on backyard trees in Los Angeles and
Phoenix, why are they so expensive?
Because they dont really grow well
enough in most of the U.S. to be produced
commercially, says Jonathan Crane, a trop-
ical fruit crop specialist at the University of
Floridas horticultural sciences department.
Until 2001, Crane said, Florida produced
half of all the limes consumed in the United
States. But then a devastating citrus canker

M
y sons fourth-grade math
homework has taught me an
incredibly valuable lesson.
About bourbon.
Inappropriate association, you say?
Perhaps. But if a bit of bourbon is what it
takes for me to safely usher my offspring
through the woes of improper fractions,
division patterns, quadrants and perimeter
calculations, then I say pour me another
round, and make it snappy.
Prior to the intrusion of fourth-grade
math into my life, I had rather set
notions about cocktails and the liquors
from which they are born. I considered
them mostly seasonal items. Gin and ton-
ics are suitable for spring, pisco sours
and margaritas love summer, cranberry
juice and vodka were made for fall, and
mulled wine outside of winter was simply
wrong.
Actually, I still believe in that. But as
my sons math homework has carried
through the seasons the warm days of
early September, the chill of November,
the frost of February, and now the thaw of
spring Ive learned that there is no
season and no volume of homework
for which bourbon isnt appropriate.
Of course, for a cocktail to be home-
work-friendly, it also must be simple.
Clearly and sadly our focus must be
on the math, not mixology. So in addi-
tion to being seasonal, my cocktails are
blissfully simple to concoct.
OLD FASHIONED (SPRING)
My version of the classic old fashioned
is more citrusy than sweet. Traditional
recipes often include a maraschino cher-
ry, but I find that it muddies the flavor.
Start to finish: 5 minutes
Servings: 1
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 large strip of orange or lemon zest
Dash of orange bitters
2 ounces bourbon
1 large ice cube
In tumbler or rocks glass, combine the
sugar, zest and bit-
ters. Using a spoon or
muddler, lightly mash
the zest into the
sugar. Add the bour-
bon, then stir until
the sugar has dis-
solved. Add the ice.
KENTUCKY TROPICS
(SUMMER)
Start to finish: 5
minutes
Servings: 1
1 small sprig fresh mint
3 ounces bourbon
2 ounces pineapple juice
Ice
Place the mint in a cocktail shaker,
then use a muddler or spoon to lightly
bruise it. Add the remaining ingredients,
then shake until well chilled. Strain into
a tumbler.
THE ORCHARD (FALL)
Start to finish: 5 minutes
Servings: 1
2 ounces bourbon
2 ounces apple cider
1 teaspoon agave nectar
Ice
Combine all ingredients in a cocktail
shaker, then shake well. Strain into a
canning jar or some similarly laid back
drinking vessel.
GRAVE DIGGER (WINTER)
Start to finish: 5 minutes
Servings: 1
2 ounces bourbon
1/2 ounce red wine
1/2 ounce dry vermouth
1/2 teaspoon sugar
Splash of lemon juice
Ice
Combine all ingredients in a cocktail
shaker. Shake until well chilled, then
strain into a tumbler.
Bourbon cocktail for any season ... or homework
In addition to being seasonal, bourbon cocktails are blissfully simple to concoct.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SPOKANE, Wash. The rising populari-
ty of hummus across the nation has been
good for farmers like Aaron Flansburg.
Flansburg, who farms 1,900 acres amid
the rolling hills of southeastern
Washington, has been increasing the
amount of the chickpeas used to make hum-
mus by about one-third each year to take
advantage of good prices and demand.
I hope that consumption keeps increas-
ing, he said.
Lawmakers in the nations capital hope
so, too. The new federal Farm Bill contains
two provisions that are intended to boost
consumption of chickpeas even more,
along with their companion, so-called
pulse crops peas and lentils.
Acreage devoted to chickpeas has explod-
ed in the past decade in Washington and
Idaho, which grow some two-thirds of the
nations supply. Chickpeas require little
water, and thats a major plus in the dry
region, Flansburg said.
They work pretty well in our region, he
said.
In the Palouse region, which straddles
both states, there are more than 150,000
acres producing chickpeas today, up from
about 12,000 acres in 2000, said Todd
Scholz of the USA Dry Pea and Lentil
Council, the trade group for the nations
growers.
Chickpeas, also known as garbanzo
beans, are also grown in California,
Montana, North Dakota and other states, he
said.
Historically, about 70 percent of the
chickpea crop in this region was exported
each year, Flansburg said. But that has
changed because of the rising domestic
demand for hummus, he said.
Thats a good thing to have that bal-
ance, he said.
The majority of the nations supply is
consumed domestically, mostly in the form
of hummus, Scholz said.
Farmers are currently getting about 28 to
30 cents a pound for chickpeas, which is an
average price for recent years, Flansburg
said. Hes seen prices top 50 cents per
pound, but a big crop in India this year has
pushed prices down a bit, he said.
Flansburg doesnt expect to expand
chickpea production much more. He also
produces high-value dry peas and lentils.
Hummus, once an exotic Middle Eastern
food that was hard to nd, is now sold in
grocery stores, big and small. Often used by
the health-conscious as a dip or spread, it
can now be found in about 20 percent of the
nations households, Scholz said.
That leaves plenty more room for growth,
he said.
For instance, hummus is in about 98 per-
cent of households in Israel, he said.
Retail sales of hummus increased to $250
million in 2013, up from $192 million in
2007 and just $5 million in 1997, said U.S.
Sen. Maria Cantwell, D-Wash., who helped
push the Farm Bill provisions on chick-
peas.
It should get even more popular as school
children are introduced to the food, she said.
The bill includes a pilot program in which
the U.S. Department of Agriculture will
spend $10 million over ve years to pur-
chase pulse crops to use in school break-
fasts and lunches.
Pulse crops are cheap, and loaded with
protein, ber and other nutrients, Scholz
said. Flours made from pulse crops can be
added to breads, tortillas and pastas to
enhance their nutritional value.
Mead High School near Spokane serves
garbanzo beans, lentils and hummus as part
of school meals. They are a less expensive
protein source so it stretches our dollars,
said Kim Elkins, Mead School District
nutrition director.
Cantwell said the growth of the chickpea
market will also help bring more jobs to
Washington state.
The states pulse crop industry employs
an estimated 5,000 people in processing,
growing or moving the crops, Cantwell
said. Eastern Washington has about 1,000
farm families and 22 processors working in
pulse crops.
The Farm Bill also provides $25 million
per year over ve years to study the health
benets of pulse crops.

Now On
outbreak led ofcials to order almost all of
Floridas lime groves destroyed and the
industry never recovered.
Mexico began producing more than 90
percent of the limes now consumed in the
United States.
In most of California, the weather isnt
warm or humid enough to produce commer-
cial quality limes, and the state has only a
few hundred acres in production near the
Mexican border.
Mexicos crop, meanwhile, was hit by a
myriad of problems this year, including
unusually heavy rains and citrus disease in
some areas. The Knights Templar drug cartel
used to jack up lime prices by disrupting
deliveries and shaking down farmers in
western Michoacan state, but that problem
has declined in importance following an
offensive this year by federal forces and
vigilantes who took up arms against the
cartel.
Like American mobsters, the drug cartel
that controls much of the Mexican state of
Michoacan where both limes and marijuana
grow in abundance, has been muscling in on
legitimate businesses.
A Mexican ofcial told The Associated
Press last month the cartel extorts as much
as $1.4 million a week from legitimate
businesses, mainly lime and avocado grow-
ers. In some instances, he said, the cartel is
now running some of the states wholesale
lime distribution centers where prices are
set.
Last winters storms, which triggered
major oods across western Mexico, also
destroyed crops, and a plant disease that
struck the Mexican state of Colima damaged
still more.
The result, the price of limes has shot up
dramatically in both Mexico and the U.S.
Restaurants in Seattle and New York have
reported paying as much as $130 a case for
them.
As the industry waits for the summer crop
to lower prices, some restaurants and bars
nationwide are pulling lime drinks off their
happy hour menus. Others are substituting
ingredients like lemons or oranges, said
Annika Stensson of the National Restaurant
Association.
Thats not an option at El Coyote, says
Wayne Christoffersen, manager of the pop-
ular Mexican eatery thats been a xture
with Hollywoods hipster and lm industry
crowd since opening in 1931.
People want to see a lime in their mar-
garita, and rightfully so, says
Christoffersen, who is paying $80 a case
for them. A margaritas not a margarita
without the lime.
Independent lmmaker Laura Bahr, who
has downed her share of margaritas at El
Coyote and other watering holes, says if
anyone dared put anything but a lime in her
drink shed likely never go back.
The lime mixed with the tequila is just a
winsome combination, she says. Like
peanut butter and jelly.
So until the price spike ends, Kohtz of
Luna Park says hes come up with the only
alternative he can think of.
I tell the bartenders, Squeeze those
limes extra hard. Squeeze out every drop you
can.

LIMES
By Alison Ladman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
If the warmer weather has you wishing for
a cool mojito or frosty margarita, you might
also start wishing for some extra cash.
The cost of limes this spring has skyrock-
eted, pushing the price of some of our
favorite summer sips to levels that could
break the bank. But a cocktail should be a
fun indulgence, not an investment decision.
The good news is limes arent the only citrus
in the game. So we decided to keep our cool
and create fresh and refreshing lime-
free versions of some of our favorite cock-
tails.
We started with the gimlet, traditionally
made from lime juice, gin and sugar. Our ver-
sion the green granny slush mimics
the sweet and sour of the traditional drink
with a puree of kiwis and Granny Smith
apples. Next, our version of the mojito gets
its vibrancy from rhubarb paired with cool-
ing cucumber.
And since it just isnt summer without a
margarita, we created a ruby red grapefruit-
based rubyrita to help take the edge off.
Finally, our daiquiri... Out with the pricy
limes and in with a seasonal and deliciously
tart raspberry puree. So maybe a lime-free
summer wont be quite so disappointing!
RUBY RITA
Start to nish: 5 minutes
Servings: 1
Kosher salt
Ice
2 ounces ruby red grapefruit juice
2 ounce reposado tequila
Spread a thin layer of salt in a small plate.
Moisten the rim of a cocktail glass with a
touch of the grapefruit juice. Overturn the
glass into the salt to coat. Set aside.
In a cocktail shaker lled with ice, com-
bine the grapefruit juice and tequila. Shake
vigorously, then strain into the prepared
cocktail glass.
GREEN GRANNY SLUSH
Start to nish: 5 minutes
Servings: 2
1 Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored and
cut into chunks
1 kiwi, peeled and cut into chunks
3 ounces gin
1 cup ice
In a blender, combine the apple, kiwi and
gin. Blend until smooth. Add the ice and
blend until slushy. Divide between 2 tall
glasses.
CUCUMBER RHUBARB MOJITO
Start to nish: 5 minutes
Servings: 1
1/2 cup chopped fresh rhubarb (not
peeled)
1 teaspoon sugar
3 slices cucumber
1 sprig fresh mint
2 ounces white rum
1 ounce rhubarb liqueur
Seltzer water
In a large cocktail shaker, muddle the
rhubarb with the sugar until well smashed.
Add the cucumber and mint, then bruise with
the muddler. Add the rum and rhubarb liqueur
and shake until well combined. Strain the
mixture into a cocktail glass lled with ice,
then top with seltzer water. Stir gently to
combine.
RASPBERRY DAIQUIRI
Start to nish: 10 minutes
Servings: 1
1/2 cup fresh raspberries
2 teaspoons sugar
Ice
2 ounces white rum
In a blender, puree the raspberries with the
sugar. Strain through a ne mesh strainer (or
squeeze through several layers of cheese-
cloth) to remove the seeds. In a cocktail
shaker lled with ice, combine the raspberry
puree with the rum. Shake vigorously, then
strain into a cocktail glass.

and commercial component rst. The
hook, according to the proposal, is
that a marina would only be built if the
residential and commercial buildings
are successful enough to nancially
support it.
As a large-scale Bayside develop-
ment, the center will have to undergo
an extensive environmental review
phase. Alitany of 11 different federal,
state and local agencies will be
involved in the environmental review
and permitting process, Community
Development Director Curtis Banks
said.
Its still very early on and Monday
allowed the council and public to pro-
vide feedback on conceptual plans
prior to the developer rening formal
ones, Banks said.
Some councilmembers envision new
revenue as a benet to the proposal
while others are concerned about trafc
and visual impacts as well as the toll
on the citys beloved Bay Trail.
Councilman Herb Perez is encour-
aged by a never-ending stream of prop-
erty tax income assuming its in the
best interests of the community and
neighbors.
You have to balance responsible
development with the desired quality
of life and the impacts to the commu-
nity. So that is the challenge with the
marina, Perez said. The question is
does it enhance or detract to the quality
of life in the city?
The city has made ve attempts to
create a marina since 1973 and the
citys Master Plan allows for one.
However, the undeveloped land pro-
posed for the marina and housing com-
plexes is zoned waterfront commer-
cial, not residential. Most of the coun-
cils control is tied to its willingness
to provide a land use variance permit
for the site, Perez said.
Louise Simson, a resident of the
Bayfront neighborhood, said she has
grave concerns about the impacts to
the environment and the ability for the
city to withstand another large devel-
opment.
Thats just environmentally such a
sensitive area, Simson said. And
putting a five-story apartment or
condo building right on the Bay, its
an eyesore. Foster City didnt have
that in the Master Plan Thats not
what the community is about and it
[would be] a blight on our beautiful
Bay Trail.
Concern with phased approach
Mayor Charles Bronitsky instructed
the developer to work with the commu-
nity to gain support and said he would
be unwilling to accept the two-phase
construction proposal.
I would not be amenable to a phased
project where the marina comes second
as I feel it is likely that it would never
get built given the environmental bur-
den and approvals required, Bronitsky
wrote in an email.
Perez said he agreed and cited the
Peninsula Jewish Community Center,
which promised a cultural center that it
apparently abandoned. The marina
likely wont generate much income for
the developer or the city but, if the
marina center proposes one, it must
follow through, Perez said.
Below-market units
Another aspect that needs eshing
out is the amount of affordable hous-
ing the development would yield. The
proposal indicates it will provide
affordable housing units at a level that
is economically viable for the project,
Banks said. But the citys Regional
Housing Needs Allocation and its
Housing Element calls for about 20
percent to be affordable and the center
will need to qualify what its willing to
do during the formal application
phase, Banks said.
Although the city needs more hous-
ing, there are other locations and mar-
ring the Bay Trail isnt appropriate,
Simson said. Allowing large residen-
tial buildings on the Bayfront would
destroy neighbors views, add to trafc
and put a burden on the citys water
resources and school system, Simson
said.
Finding a balance
Perez and Banks said theyve
received positive and negative feed-
back from neighbors and the develop-
er has been encouraged to continue
reaching out to the community. If a
solid balance can be made between the
developer, the community and envi-
ronmental impacts, Foster City could
nally have its long-awaited marina,
Perez said.
There are people with visions and
there was the vision of what the mari-
na was going to be. Is there an individ-
ual now that has the wherewithal and
the passion to make it happen? And it
sounds like there is, Perez said. The
other question is is this a reason-
able development and will it continue
to allow us to have the quality of life
we want for our citizens?
If and after the Foster City Marina
Center returns with a formal applica-
tion, there will be future study ses-
sions, Planning Commission meet-
ings, scoping meetings and a long
environmental review phase, Banks
said.
A representative for Foster Center
Marina Center, LLC did not return a
phone call for comment.

longer together when their son was
born in February 2013. However, they
agreed to co-parent the boy and trav-
eled from Kentucky to California by
trailer that April and stayed at the San
Mateo home of the womans sister.
In May 2013, prosecutors say the
couples relationship worsened and
Sorrell refused to seek a formal custody
arrangement but offered his ex-girl-
friend $2,000 to let him take the boy
to Israel for two months.
Bentley said his client had traveled
the world as a Marine for six years and
offered to continue nancially support
the woman while he returned to Israel
for a few weeks.
Prosecutors say the woman told
Sorrell shed think about it but found
on his computer Internet searches
about how to disappear and travel with
a newborn. She allowed Sorrell to take
the boy overnight and went to
Redwood City for an emergency cus-
tody order. While there, Sorrell took
the baby to his mothers Arizona
home.
Bentley said the woman knew he was
taking the baby overnight, just not to
Arizona, and that he even called San
Mateo police on his way out to ask if
he was violating any laws. Police
advised him to call an attorney or the
court, Bentley said.
The woman ultimately received an
emergency court order and Sorrell was
arrested by Arizona authorities which
sparked the search of the trailer.
The woman was well aware of the
weapons since they had traveled in
that trailer from Kentucky and was
just as much in possession of them as
he was, Bentley said.
He also discounted the womans dis-
covery of the Internet searches as his
client simply looking into options.
That is unsubstantiated and there is
just no evidence he was actually going
to follow through, Bentley said. You
have to look at a womans actions ver-
sus what he says or looks at.
Sorrell had been free on $50,00 bail
but Judge Marta Diaz remanded him
back into custody and hiked bail to
$300,000 after a preliminary hear-
ing. He posted the new bond last
Thursday.

PEARLS BEFORE SWINE
GET FUZZY
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 30, 2014
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You cant let past
disappointments hold you back. Keep your head
up and move forward with pride. Dont waste time
stewing over things you cannot change.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Dont waste time on
idle chitchat. Someone is likely to use your ippant
attitude against you. Focus on being productive, not
entertaining. Keep your plans a secret.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) A travel opportunity
is coming your way. Your imagination is in overdrive,
and a new hobby or endeavor will help to satisfy your
creative urges. Love is in the stars.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) What was touted as a
foolproof investment could prove to be very costly.
Dont take any unnecessary risks. You cant expect to
get something for nothing. Be smart with your cash.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Mingling after hours with
colleagues could prove to be very rewarding today. You
will be able to learn a lot of useful information from
people with more experience than you.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Keep a watchful eye on
your personal documents and make sure everything
is up to date. Double-check that you have done
everything in your power to ward off a nancial loss.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Expect to face
demanding individuals. Keep your emotions in check
and assert yourself if you feel you are being taken
advantage of. Put your needs rst for a change.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) You may
nd hidden value in an overlooked asset. If
you are feeling overwhelmed, get out and do
something physical to relieve stress. Clear up any
misunderstanding or uncertainty.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Children and
close friends should be included in your plans today.
Getting together with those you love will make you
feel good about your life and future.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) Family problems are
likely if you have not been paying attention to current
developments. Take a look at your nancial situation
before you overspend on an impulsive purchase.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) Get involved in a
benevolent or charitable organization. You have a lot
to offer, and important connections will be made if
you share your best ideas with others.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) Get together with
friends during the evening hours, but take care of
your own responsibilities rst to put your mind at
ease. Romance will enhance your personal life.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Anna Maria M. Zabala
Case Number: 124393
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: Anna Maria M. Zabala.
A Petition for Probate has been filed by
J. luis Zabala, Jr. abd Paul J. Zabala in
the Superior Court of California, County
of San Mateo. The Petition for Probate
requests that J. Luis Zabala, Jr. and Paul
J. Zabala be appointed as personal rep-
resentative to administer the estate of
the decedent.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ister the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: May 20, 2014 at
9:00 a.m., Dept. 28, Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo, 400
County Center, Redwood City, CA
94063.
If you object to the granting of the peti-
tion, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hear-
ing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent cred-
itor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representa-
tive, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal de-
livery to you of a notice under section
9052 of the California Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal au-
thority may affect your rights as a cred-
itor. You may want to consult with an at-
torney knowledgeable in California law.
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
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.

mote her and her students dreams.
San Mateo doesnt have anything like
this; an artistic outlet like this, an opportu-
nity for artists to grow no matter what their
ages are, no matter what their skills are. I
started all this with a vision, Pillot said.
Pillot, a Belgium native who came to the
United States in 1989 with the dream of
owning a business, said she hopes the larg-
er location will allow her to foster more tal-
ent, host fashion shows, provide space for
students to create their own line of clothing
and provide storefront space for emerging
designers.
With her new space comes room for her
student and intern programs to grow. Pillot
said over the years shes taught students of
all levels from ages 8 to 70. Pillot said
classes revolve around the students and how
she can help them create their own designs
or gain real-world experience in the indus-
try.
Sisters Dakota Peebler, 8, and Charley
Peebler, 10, have been taking classes with
Pillot for more than a year and say their
ability to express their creativity makes
time at Ricochet a joy.
You get to make whatever you want and
theres no strict rules about it, Dakota
Peebler said. For me, sewing is really fun
and easy once you get the hang of it.
She also takes on high school and college
interns who want to build portfolios or
resumes. Those interested in fashion and
design will learn how to sew and create
through Pillots one-on-one instruction.
For photographers and models, they can
work either shooting or modeling her
designs and in fashion shows. For those
interested in marketing, Pillot said
Ricochet participates in fashion shows
throughout the Bay Area and needs event
coordinators.
The idea is really for the fashion or the
creative person to believe and follow their
passion and make it happen for themselves
instead of just making it a hobby so I try
to really support them so they can grow
within their passion, Pillot said.
Throughout the years, her internship pro-
grams have grown in demand and she now
has about 40 eager fashion enthusiasts a
year. Currently, Pillot asks for a 120-hour
commitment, but would like to expand that
into two- or three-month commitments.
Pillot said as her designs have become
national, shes also received internship
requests from people in other countries.
Through Ricochet, interns are exploring
the fashion industry, learning how to create
clothes, especially with the environment in
mind, which is everything we do its rescued
material and the new generation is very
excited about that part and thats what peo-
ple have in mind now, is to be conscious
about the environment, Pillot said.
Pillot said the main premise of her busi-
ness and designs is turning salvageable
goods into wearable art, which is becoming
an increasingly popular philosophy.
Not yet a teenager, Charley Peebler is
already conscious about the environment
and how to be inspired through discarded
fabrics.
You can make really interesting things
and you use a lot of neat and interesting fab-
rics. Its also creative and fun. I think its
eco-friendly and good for the environment
and you dont have to buy more polyester
and silk and fabric, Peebler said.
Pillot said shes always had a desire to
teach, create and run a business. To be able
to do it all under one roof has been a dream.
She hopes her clothes, store and programs
impart self-esteem on anyone who touches
them.
I like to live a little, very simple life.
Im not too much a materialistic person and
Im happy just seeing the person leave and
feel accomplished and then they can spread
the word to others about themselves and
hopefully they can go and do the same so
they can shine and help others, Pillot said.
I feel like [Ricochet is] a great asset to the
community and this building here, now I
feel like we nally have a presence.
Ricochets grand opening is 10 a.m. to 6
p.m. May 3-4. Ricochet will also host
happy hour potlucks the first and last
Thursdays of the month.

classes and internships visit www.rico-
chetwearableart.com.

front of their businesses and casino travel-
ers parking all day while taking buses.
The downtown isnt the downtown we
used to have 20 years ago, Mayor Jeff Gee
said.
The council unanimously adopted a list of
recommendations which include a 50-cent
increase to $1 for hourly parking in the core
area generally the area between Main,
Marshall and Winslow streets and a 25-
cent rate in the periphery.
The monthly price tags on permits are
also going up for the Marshall Street garage
from $30 to $60 for weekday permits
until 7 p.m., from $35 to $80 for weekday
permits until midnight and from $40 to
$100 for everyday permits until midnight.
All together, the changes could bring the
city an extra $846,000 annually. Ofcials
also hope the tweaks change parking
behavior and keeps the city in line with
other Peninsula cities.
Nobody ever wants to raise rates. Its not
a fun thing to do, said Councilman John
Seybert. But I think it is the right thing to
do.
Public speakers were generally in favor of
the increases although some also urged
expansion of the effort. Steve Penna, for
example, urged the addition of more than
one resident on the citys parking advisory
committee and asked that something be
done about the two to four casino buses that
pick up travelers who leave their cars down-
town for eight hours.
Going forward, Community Development
Director Bill Ekern said the city has other
possible options like a new garage behind
City Hall for which he said hes been
approached by several developers interested
in a public/private partnership. No new
facility would begin until after the Crossing
900 project is finished and its parking
available to the public at night and on
weekends.
He also pointed to Walnut Creek as an
example of a city successfully using private
lots to manage parking.
The citys parking advisory committee
also considered extending meter hours to 8
p.m. but Ekern said it decided doing so could
alienate visitors and hurt business.
The general consensus is that it was too
much of the apple to eat at this time, he
said.
The changes begin July 1.

By Albert Aji and Ryan Lucas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DAMASCUS, Syria Amassive double car
bombing and a mortar strike targeted pro-
government neighborhoods Tuesday in two of
Syrias largest cities, killing at least 54 peo-
ple a day after President Bashar Assad declared
his candidacy for re-election.
The attacks in Damascus and Homs height-
ened fears of an escalation ahead of the con-
tentious June 3 vote and showed that despite a
series of battleeld setbacks, the rebels
remain capable of hitting the government and
its core of support.
Now in its fourth year, Syrias conict has
left the country a chaotic tableau of localized
battles whose front lines shift back and forth,
but have little impact on the wider war. The
map of control has remained largely unal-
tered: Assad holds sway in Damascus and the
corridor that runs up to the Mediterranean
coast, while the rebels control most of the
north along the Turkish border and the
Kurdish minority controls a corner in the
northeast.
But the rebels are feeling squeezed in the
capital, Damascus, and in Homs, Syrias third-
largest city and an opposition stronghold
since the beginning of the uprising against
Assad. The government has taken a two-
pronged approach to crushing resistance in
both areas: suffocating blockades that eventu-
ally force cease-res and a erce offensive
along the Lebanese frontier that has severely
restricted the ow of weapons and ghters
along cross-border supply lines.
In Homs, the rebels are growing desperate
as government forces ramp up their assault on
the last remaining pockets of opposition in
the Old City. Among the hundreds of ghters
still holding out in besieged districts, some
talk of surrender while others have lashed out
at the government with suicide car bombings
in pro-Assad districts.
Tuesdays double car bombing struck near
the pro-government Zahra and Abbasiyeh
neighborhoods an area predominantly
inhabited by Christians and members of
Assads Alawite sect. At least 40 people were
killed and another 116 wounded, the ofcial
SANA news agency said. The Britain-based
Syrian Observatory for Human Rights also
put the death toll at 40 and said more than 80
were wounded.
The explosions struck 10 minutes apart and
150 yards (meters) from each other on a busy
residential and commercial thoroughfare.
When I arrived at the scene, re and smoke
and medics were still carrying away the
wounded, said one resident, who declined to
give his name for fear of reprisals. He said
homes and shops were heavily damaged in the

LUHANSK, Ukraine
Protesters demanding more power
for Ukraines regions stormed the
government building in Luhansk
with baseball bats Tuesday, seiz-
ing control of a key site in one of
the largest cities in Ukraines trou-
bled east.
The move further raises tensions
in the east, where pro-Russia mili-
tias have seized city halls, police
stations and other government
buildings in at least 10 cities and
towns.
In Slovyansk, the insurgents
have been holding seven European
military observers since Friday.
Russian President Vladimir Putin
said late Tuesday that he hoped
they will be released soon.
The demonstrators who overran
the building in Luhansk are seek-
ing at the very least a refer-
endum on granting greater author-
ity to Ukraines regions.
Eastern Ukraine, which has a
large Russian-speaking popula-
tion, was the heartland of support
for Viktor Yanukovych, the ousted
president who ed to Russia in
February. The government that
replaced him in Kiev has resisted
those demands so far, fearing they
could lead to a breakup of the coun-
try or mean that more regions
could join Russia, as Crimea did.
The storming came as 1,000
demonstrators gathered in front of
the building. About 150 people,
some masked and wielding base-
ball bats, broke out of the crowd
and charged into the building,
meeting no resistance. Later pro-
testers formed a corridor to allow
police inside the building to
leave.
Luhansk, a city of about
450,000, is just 25 kilometers (15
miles) west of the border with
Russia.
Regional autonomy is a core
issue in the unrest in eastern
Ukraine, where insurgents fear
that the government that took
power after Yanukovych ed will
suppress the Russian-speaking
population.

LONDON U.S. sanctions tar-
geting the president of Russias
largest oil company could compli-
cate the operations of Western oil
companies with important invest-
ments in Russia, such as BP and
Exxon.
The sanctions target only Igor
Sechin, the president of Rosneft,
and not the company itself. That
means BP, Exxon and others will be
able to continue to work with
Rosneft, one of the worlds biggest
oil companies, to explore for and
produce oil and gas.
For now.
Analysts are worried that the
sanctions by the U.S. against
Sechin are a prelude to tougher ones
against Rosneft. That could force
Western oil companies to abandon
or suspend their partnerships and
some very ambitious oil explo-
ration plans.
(Sechin) perhaps may not be
able to go shopping in Paris in the
foreseeable future, but that is not
the same thing as penalizing the
actual company, says Pavel
Molchanov, an energy analyst at
Raymond James. That could be the
next step, though.
BP, based in London, owns a 20
percent stake in Rosneft.
ExxonMobil, based in Irving,
Texas, has a broad agreement with
Rosneft to explore for oil in the
Russian arctic and across a wide
region of western Siberia. Eni of
Italy and Statoil of Norway also
have deals with the Russian compa-
ny.
Western investor-owned oil com-
panies and Rosneft, which is con-
trolled by the Kremlin, need each
other. These companies are in a
constant struggle to nd more oil
and gas to replace what they pro-
duce and sell every day. Russia is
one of the few countries in the world
that harbor vast reserves of
untapped hydrocarbons.
But much of Russias remaining
oil and gas is expensive and difcult
to reach, found either in the harsh
climate of Arctic seas or trapped in
tight rock onshore. Western com-
panies have the capital and the tech-
nical expertise to help Rosneft pro-
duce that oil and gas and generate
cash that helps the Russian govern-
ment fund its operations.
Adnan Vatansever, a senior lectur-
er at the Russia Institute at Kings
College London, estimates that half
of Russias federal revenue comes
from oil and gas sales.
Sechin, like Putin a former KGB
ofcer, has been president of
Rosneft since the early 1990s. He
is seen as the mastermind behind
the 2003 takeover of the private oil
company Yukos, whose founder,
Mikhail Khodorkovsky, was jailed
following disputes with the
Kremlin. Rosneft seized Yukos
most valuable assets, making it
Russias largest company.
