OBAMA WARNS OF ENCLAVE FOR EXTREMISM IN SYRIA
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Could your re-retardant furni-
ture make you sick? State Sen.
Mark Leno thinks so and is chal-
lenging Californias 1975 amma-
bility standard for upholstered fur-
niture with the help of consumer
advocates, physicians, chemists and
Gov. Jerry
Brown.
However, pro-
ponents of the
c h e m i c a l l y
treated materials
say the issue is
being oversim-
plified because
not all flame
retardants are the same and are sub-
ject to scientic review.
The current law established in
1975, called Technical Bulletin
117, requires the interior of
upholstered furniture to be able to
withstand a direct flame for at
least 12 seconds before catching
on fire. TB 117 resulted in the
industrys use of flame retardant
chemicals to treat upholstery.
After 2004, because of growing
awareness of its hazards, polybromi-
nated diphenyl ether was phased out.
Regardless of the sanction, various
re retardant chemicals are still used
in upholstery and baby products
including Tris probable human
carcinogens which were removed
from childrens sleepwear in 1977.
Arlene Blum, a chemist at the
University of California at
Berkeley, published a study con-
cluding 85 percent of couches in
California contain ame-retardant
chemicals correlated to cancer,
infertility, lower IQ levels and neu-
rological problems. A Silent Spring
Furniture safety standards in question
New rules proposed for fire retardants after chemicals called dangerous

Those wishing to develop land at
the corner of Industrial Road and
Holly Street in San Carlos would
need approval from the City Council
under a proposed urgency ordinance
that will be discussed Monday.
This proposal comes on the heels
of a developer expressing interest in
building a tness center on three of
ve parcels of land the city had envi-
sioned for a hotel in its general plan.
Under the 45-day plan outlined in
the urgency ordinance, any business
bringing a new use to the commer-
cial/industrial district will require a
conditional use permit meaning
the city will need to sign off. The
city is particularly interested in the
southeast corner of Industrial Road
and Holly Street, the entry into the
city from Highway 101 where a
developer had envisioned the tness
center.

A Placerville sex offender linked by DNA
to the 1986 rape and fatal beating of a 17-
year-old Ben Lomond girl whose body was
discovered down a San Mateo County
embankment pleaded not guilty Friday to
murder charges.
John William Kelley, 50, has pleaded not
guilty to murder during the course of kidnap-
ping and sexually assaulting Annette Thur in
December 1986, said Chief Deputy District
Attorney Karen Guidotti. Kelley will be due
back in court April 3 to set a pretrial confer-
ence and jury trial date.
Sheriffs investigators arrested Kelly in
August after the county crime lab reran DNA
from uids recovered from the crime scene
and hit on him. Kelley, a registered sex
offender who has lived in
Oregon and California,
resided in Ben Lomond at
the time of Thurs death
and, nearly a decade later,
in 1995, was convicted of
rape in Humboldt County.
Thur was last seen early
Dec. 6, 1986 leaving a
party in Boulder Creek
with the intention of hitch-
hiking. Later that day, a
tourist stopping to check out the view from
Skyline Boulevard just north of Alpine Road
spotted her body eight feet down the embank-
ment with a denim jacket over her head and
torso. Investigators determined Thur had been
sexually assaulted, beaten and possibly stran-
gled but were never able to pinpoint a viable
suspect.
Once Kelley was in custody, prosecutors
said they believed he picked Thur up and took
her back to his Ben Lomond home where she
was sexually assaulted. Kelley, then 23 and
married, is accused of strangling or smother-
ing Thur and leaving the body in the ravine.
Prosecutors cannot charge him with rape or
kidnapping because the statute of limitations
has expired. However, the special circum-
stance murder charge still carries the death
penalty or life in prison without parole.

The bomb squad was sent to Skyline

Skyline College has posted an announce-
ment on its website stating that school closed

Dog walker shot with
stun gun sues park service
A California man is suing the National Park
Service and a park ranger who allegedly shot
him with a stun gun for being uncooperative
about his off-leash dog.
In a federal lawsuit led Thursday, 51-year-
old Gary Hesterberg of Montara claims his
constitutional rights were violated and seeks
$500,000 in damages for the Jan. 29, 2012
incident.
The complaint says Hesterberg was running
on a trail in the Golden Gate National
Recreation Area when the ranger warned him
about having one of his dogs off-leash.
The suit says the woman hadnt identied
herself as a park ranger when she red her
Taser stun gun at his back as he tried to leave.
Park Service spokesman Howard Levitt said
Friday the agency cant comment the lawsuit.
The ranger was cleared of wrongdoing.
Report says no motive
for CHP officer killing
Authorities say they will never know what
drove a man to fatally shoot a California
Highway Patrol ofcer during a freeway traf-
c stop.
An investigation by the Contra Costa
County Sheriffs Ofce revealed Thursday
that there was no motive or indication 36-
year-old Christopher Lacy was going to shoot
officer Kenyon Youngstrom after he was
pulled over on Interstate 680 in Alamo in
September.
However, investigators later discovered that
Lacy had suffered a mental breakdown while
attending college and was diagnosed with
bipolar disorder.
They also learned that Lacys behavior had
become increasingly erratic in recent years
and the handgun he used in the shooting was
purchased legally and registered to him.
Lacy shot the 37-year-old Youngstrom who
died in a hospital the next day after being
taken off life support. Lacy was killed by
Youngstroms partner, CHP officer Tyler
Carlton.

Man convicted for leaving
threatening messages for officer
A Burlingame man who left numerous
threatening voicemails for a Brisbane police
officer following his
arrest on misdemeanor
drunk driving charges last
July was convicted by a
jury of numerous charges
on Thursday, according to
San Mateo County prose-
cutors.
Khalil Jaser, 49, was
convicted of charges
including making threats,
hindering an executive ofcer and making
harassing and threatening phone calls, District
Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said Friday.
Bail was raised from $300,000 to $750,000
and the case was continued to May 14 for sen-
tencing.
Jaser was rst arrested on July 28, 2012, on
a misdemeanor drunk driving charge, accord-
ing to Wagstaffe.
Between Aug. 29 and Sept. 3, the arresting
ofcer received seven voicemails from Jaser
that included warnings telling him not to go to
work and to be careful on the streets and state-
ments like Boom, youre dead, Wagstaffe
said.
The arresting ofcer spoke with him on
Sept. 5 and told him to stop calling, but
instead Jaser called 152 times over the next
three weeks and left 54 messages, prosecutors
said.
In addition, he made threats and other state-
ments about the ofcer on a Twitter account
that also included a large number of anti-
Semitic statements.

John & Jen (also written as john & jen),
an intimate musical presented by Hillbarn
Theatre, may be seen as an intriguing psycho-
logical study in family dynamics
With just two characters, it covers 38 years
in the life of a woman, Jen (Alicia Teeter),
starting in 1952, when shes 6 years old and
welcoming her newborn brother, John
(William Giammona). On Christmas Eve ve
years later, its apparent that their parents
dont get along and that their father is abusive.
Other transitions follow until Jen is 18 and
goes off to college in 1964, leaving her
despairing brother behind.
In subsequent years, she becomes a hippie
and peacenik, moving to Canada with her
draft-dodging boyfriend, while John becomes
closer to their father. In 1970, when John is
18, he enlists in the Navy and is soon killed in
Vietnam, much to Jens sorrow.
Two years later, Jen has given birth to a son,
whom she names John. Sometime after that,
the boys father leaves. In the meantime, Jen
seems determined to turn her son into her
brothers reincarnation. As he grows older, he
resents those efforts, which impede his ability
to follow his own path. Ultimately, she sees
the light as he heads off to college.
Created by Tom Greenwald and Andrew
Lippa, much of the story is told through
songs. It takes place on an uncluttered set
designed by Robert Broadfoot with lighting
by Aya Matsutomo and sound by Alan
Chang.
The actors are onstage almost the entire two
acts. Transitions are achieved through slight
changes of clothing (costumes by Mae Matos).
Director Jay Manley guides the two with
intelligence and sensitivity. Although Teeter
may seem to have the easier role because shes
the same person in both acts, she has some of
the more demanding songs well sung
and goes on a longer emotional journey.
On the other hand, Giammona has the chal-
lenge of being an adult portraying a child or
teenager. Both actors succeed.
The songs are all pleasant though not par-
ticularly memorable. Sitting on the side with a
cellist and percussionist, Graham Sobelman
serves as musical director and keyboardist.
John & Jen will continue at Hillbarn
Theatre, 1285 E. Hillsdale Blvd., Foster City,
through April 7. For tickets and information
call (650) 349-6411 or visit www.hillbarnthe-
atre.org.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Democrats who vowed
a crackdown on guns after the horrific
Newtown, Conn., school shooting are touting
prospects for Senate passage of expanded fed-
eral background checks, even as they
acknowledge there isnt enough support to
restore a ban on assault-style weapons.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said
Thursday that a measure likely to be debated
in his chamber next month will include
tougher laws and stiffer sentences for gun traf-
cking and increased school safety grants.
Closing background check loopholes will
be the core of the legislation, just as it was the
cornerstone of President Barack Obamas pro-
posals for stemming gun violence following
the December slayings of
20 first-graders and six
staffers at Sandy Hook
Elementary School in
Connecticut.
Including expanded
checks in the gun legisla-
tion signals that
Democrats feel they can
win bipartisan support for
the measure or are happy
to dare Republicans to reject the entire gun-
control package and face political conse-
quences in next years elections.
Reid, D-Nev., said he hoped a trio of sena-
tors would craft a bipartisan background
check compromise. If not, he said, senators
would consider a stricter version that allows
fewer exemptions approved by the Senate
Judiciary Committee on a party-line vote.
This moves the ball forward on gun safety
in the Senate, said Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-
N.Y., one of the senators hunting a back-
ground check deal.
Schumer said he hoped an accord could be
ready when the Senate returns from its
upcoming two-week spring break. Moderate
Sens. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., who has an A-
rating from the National Rie Association,
and Mark Kirk, R-Ill., are also involved.
The background check system is aimed at
preventing criminals and others from acquir-
ing rearms. It currently applies only to sales
by federally licensed gun dealers, not private
transactions at gun shows or online.
The fate of the overall legislation remains
uncertain, with Democrats all but sure to need
Republican support for it to survive.

Police arrest two teens in baby killing
BRUNSWICK A pair of teenagers was
arrested Friday and accused of fatally shoot-
ing a 13-month-old baby in the face and
wounding his mother during their morning
stroll through a leafy, historic neighborhood.
Sherry West had just been to the post ofce
a few blocks from her apartment Thursday
morning and was pushing her son, Antonio, in
his stroller while they walked past gnarled oak
trees and blooming azaleas in the coastal city
of Brunswick.
West said a tall, skinny teenager, accompa-
nied by a smaller boy, asked her for money.
He asked me for money and I said I didnt
have it, she told the Associated Press Friday
from her apartment, which was scattered with
her sons toys and movies.
When you have a baby, you spend all your
money on babies. Theyre expensive. And he
kept asking and I just said I dont have it.
And he said, Do you want me to kill your
baby? And I said, No, dont kill my baby!
One of the teens red four shots, grazing
Wests ear and striking her in the leg, before
he walked around to the stroller and shot the
baby in the face.
North Dakota lawmakers define
life as starting at conception
BISMARCK, N.D. North Dakota didnt
set out to become the abortion debates new
epicenter.
It happened by accident, after a legislative
caucus that once vetted abortion bills lan-
guished, leaving lawmakers to propose a ur-
ry of measures some cribbed from
Wikipedia without roadblocks.
Long dismissed as cold and inconsequen-
tial, North Dakota is now trying to enact the
toughest abortion restrictions in the nation.
The newly oil-rich red state may soon nd
itself in a costly battle over legislation foes
describe as blatantly unconstitutional.
It had to happen some place, said Sen.
John Andrist, a Crosby Republican who has
served in the Legislature for more than two
decades.
Im from the group who hates voting on
abortion issues and who dont like to play
God, said Andrist, who describes himself as
moderately pro-life and has voted for some
but not all of the restrictions North Dakota has
taken up this year. But we have some strong-
willed people in this state who do.

AMMAN, Jordan President Barack
Obama warned Friday that an enclave for
extremism could ll a leadership void in
war-torn Syria, a chilling scenario for an
already tumultuous region, especially for
Jordan, Syrias neighbor and a nation at the
crossroads of the struggle for stability in the
Middle East.
In a signicant step toward easing regional
tensions, Obama also brokered a phone call
between leaders from Israel and Turkey that
resulted in an extraordinary apology from
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
for a deadly 2010 raid on a Gaza-bound
Turkish otilla. The call marked a diplomatic
victory for the president and a crucial realign-
ment in the region, given Israels and Turkeys
shared interests, in particular the fear that
Syrias civil war could spill over their respec-
tive borders.
Obama said he remains confident that
embattled Syrian leader Bashar Assads gov-
ernment will ultimately collapse. But he
warned that when that happens, Syria would
not be put back together perfectly, and he
said he fears the nation could become a
hotbed for extremists.
I am very concerned about Syria becoming
an enclave for extremism, because extremists
thrive in chaos, Obama said during a joint
news conference with Jordans King Abdullah
II. They thrive in failed states, they thrive in
power vacuums.
More than 70,000 people have been killed
during the two-year conict in Syria, making
it by far the deadliest of the Arab Spring upris-
ings that have roiled the region since 2011.
Longtime autocrats in Egypt, Tunisia, Yemen
and Libya have been ousted, ushering in new
governments that are sometimes at odds with
the Obama administration and its Mideast
allies.
Obamas 24-hour stop in Jordan marked his
rst visit to an Arab nation since the 2011
Mideast protests began. Jordans monarchy
has clung to power in part by enacting politi-
cal reforms, including parliamentary elections
and signicant revisions to the countrys 60-
year-old constitution. Still, tensions continue
to simmer, with the restive population ques-
tioning the speed and seriousness of the
changes.

JERUSALEM Israel and Turkey agreed
to restore full diplomatic relations on Friday
after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
apologized in a phone call for a deadly naval
raid against a Gaza-bound international otil-
la in a dramatic turnaround partly brokered by
President Barack Obama.
Joint interests between the two countries,
including fears that the Syrian civil war could
spill over their respective borders, and some
cajoling by Obama made the time ripe to
repair the frayed relations after nearly three
years of acrimony over the deaths.
It was a surprising turnaround for Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu who had long
rejected calls to apologize. He announced the
breakthrough after a 20-minute phone conver-
sation with his Turkish counterpart, Recep
Tayyip Erdogan. Obama helped broker the
fence-mending while visiting Israel, but the
sides had been reaching out to each other
before.
They agreed to restore normalization
between Israel and Turkey, including the dis-
patch of ambassadors and the cancellation of
legal steps against Israeli soldiers, a state-
ment from Netanyahus office said.
Netanyahu regretted the recent deterioration
of relations between Israel and Turkey and
expressed his commitment to overcoming
their differences in order to advance peace and
stability in the region, it said.

CITY GOVERNMENT
The Redwood City Council will
hold a public hearing and waive the
second reading on an ordinance pro-
hibiting the distribution of single-use
carryout plastic bags Monday. The
ordinance follows the county tem-
plate that other cities have followed.
The council meets 7 p.m. Monday
at City Hall, 1017 Middleeld Road in Redwood City.
The Millbrae City Council is conducting its annual
recruitment for volunteer adult and high school student rep-
resentatives to serve on its advisory commissions and com-
mittees. A number of vacancies exist on a variety of boards.
Applicants must be Millbrae residents and in most cases a
registered voter. Applications must be submitted by Friday,
May 31. For more information visit www.ci.millbrae.ca.us.
On Monday, the Burlingame Planning Commission
will give the nal approval on a temporary re station a
step toward testing shared re services among four cities.
San Bruno, Millbrae, Burlingame and Hillsborough gave
the go-ahead to continue exploring shared administrative
services in 2011. One of the rst steps was creating a tem-
porary station, which is expected to open this summer. Under
the proposal, stations on Hillside Drive in Burlingame and
Crestview Drive in Millbrae would be closed. A new station
would then be placed somewhere within the three-mile dis-
tance between the two stations. Plans to build such a station
at 1675 Skyline Blvd. in Burlingame were reviewed by the
Planning Commission Monday and will return for approval
March 25.
The project includes a 1,440-square-foot re house build-
ing, 576 square feet of ofce space and a 2,730-square-foot
apparatus building to house two full-size re trucks with
drive-through capacities, according to a staff report. A spe-
cial permit will be required for the apparatus building which
will be 32 feet tall, two feet higher than the 30 foot height
limit in the area.
At the same meeting, the commission will vote to amend a
conditional use permit for Pizzaeria Delna, which plans to
open at 1444 Burlingame Ave.
The commission meets 7 p.m. Monday, March 25 at City
Hall, 501 Primrose Road.

WASHINGTON Senate Democrats
neared approval of their rst budget pro-
posal in four years on Friday, calling for
almost $1 billion in tax increases over the
coming decade while sheltering safety net
programs targeted by House Republicans.
The Democrats also would reverse auto-
matic spending cuts that are beginning to
strike both the Pentagon and domestic
programs.
The nonbinding but politically symbol-
ic measure caters to party stalwarts on the
liberal edge of the spectrum just as the
House GOP measure is crafted to appeal
to more recent Tea Party arrivals.
Approval of the Senate version was
expected to come long after dark after
dozens of votes on amendments, many of
which were offered in hopes of inicting
political damage on Democratic senators
up for re-election in GOP-leaning states
like Alaska and Louisiana.
Some $1 trillion in new revenue would
ow to the government over the coming
decade on top of more than $600 bil-
lion in taxes on upper-income earners
approved in January and would be
coupled with a net $875 billion in spend-
ing cuts. Those reductions would be gen-
erated by modest cuts to federal health
care programs, domestic agencies and the
Pentagon and reduced government bor-
rowing costs. The budget proposes $100
billion in new spending for infrastructure
projects and job training programs.
The president will reveal his own over-
due tax-and-spending plan in two weeks,
a plan that will be judged in part by
whether it offers new, more politically
risky proposals that could form the foun-
dation for a bipartisan agreement between
the two houses.
Senators braced for dozens of votes
during a marathon session running late on
Friday, with some predicting a nal vote
on the Democratic plan in the pre-dawn
hours of Saturday. In early voting Friday
morning, Democrats rejected the latest
attempt to repeal Obamas landmark
health care law by a strictly party-line
vote.
The Senate has already taken several
politically freighted votes, including a
move by Democrats to force a vote on the
Paul Ryan House budget, which was
rejected by a 59-40 vote Thursday night,
with five Republicans joining every
Democratic senator in opposition.
Republicans countered with a move by
Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., putting Democrats
on record in opposition to balancing the
budget by the end of the decade. It failed
on a near party-line vote.
Additional votes on Friday could fea-
ture forays into off-topic subjects like
super-sized soft drinks, domestic drone
strikes, handguns and abortion in addi-
tion to the more traditional subjects of
taxes, spending and debt.
It all concerned a largely symbolic
measure known as a budget resolution,
not binding legislation that could be sent
to the president to become law. The
Senate budget measure and the starkly
different version passed by the House on
Thursday seek to set parameters for fol-
low-up legislation on taxes and spend-
ing.

LOS ANGELES Eleven air trafc
control towers at small airports through-
out California were on the Federal
Aviation Administrations list of nation-
wide facilities to be closed starting next
month due to automatic spending cuts,
according to a list released Friday.
The California closures range from
Executive Airport in Sacramento to
Brown Field in San Diego. They are
among 149 contract towers that are FAA
certied by not staffed by government
employees and will stop operating as the
FAA trims $637 million for the rest of
the scal year as a result of budget cuts.
Also on the list are Castle Airport in
Merced County, Salinas Municipal in
Monterey County, Fullerton Municipal
in Orange County and Oxnard Airport in
Ventura County.
Two control towers in Riverside
County Riverside Municipal and
Ramona were listed, along with con-
trol facilities at Victorvilles Southern
California Logistics Airport in San
Bernardino County, Whiteman Airport
in Los Angeles and Gen. William J. Fox
Aireld in northern Los Angeles County.
The tower closures will not shut down
the airports, but will leave pilots to coor-
dinate departures, arrivals and other
movement among themselves via shared
radio frequencies.
We will work with the airports and
the operators to ensure the procedures
are in place to maintain the high level of
safety at non-towered airports, FAA
Administrator Michael Huerta said in a
statement.
The FAA said it would help efforts by
communities that choose to assume the
cost of air trafc control services at their
airports.

OPINION 9
Political arrogance at its best
Editor,
At the risk of sounding anti City
Hall, allow me to offer my opinion on
the subject of bailing our Sams Italian
Sandwich Company.
1.) Why is the city in the real estate
business?
2.) When was it OK for the city to
bailout a suffering retail business?
3.) There are a lot of businesses in
San Mateo County that do not get sym-
pathy from greedy landlords.
4.) Why should the general public
give in to a failing business that smacks
of quiet socialism?
I believe the city of Burlingame has
opened a can of worms. There are a lot
of businesses that need nancial help.
Bear in mind, free enterprise is risky.

Large soda sizes
contribute to obesity
Editor,
After reading your article, (Judge
strikes down New York City ban on
super-sized sodas from the March 12
edition of the Daily Journal) I was very
proud to see that cities in America are
willing to change, but I was very disap-
pointed to see that the judge had struck
it down.
Having one of the biggest cities in
the United States make such a big,
healthy decision would really lead
other cities to follow. In the article, I
completely disagree with the fact that
people think this is a way of the gov-
ernment dictating our choices. Even
though it may seem that way, in the
end its just enforcing what the people
asked for, what we asked for. Society
makes it OK for us to walk around with
these 32-ounce drinks and go check-
ing-in at various fast-food restaurants;
when in reality we should be shaking
our heads and disapproving of such
behavior. Along with limiting the soda
size, I think vendors should limit the
amount of sweeteners allowed for cof-
fee and tea.
Two-thirds of America is either over-
weight or obese and people get mad at
the government for wanting to help
save lives? As Americans, we need to
face the cold hard truth, demand more
of this positive change and stop ignor-
ing this obesity crisis. We need to act
fast because obesity is quickly becom-
ing the number one killer in America.

Parents have a right
to protect their children
Editor,
Parents do have the right to protect
their children, even from government
schools.
I remember when I read that a judge
told parents the moment your child
walks into a school, you are no longer
in control of your child. That was a
few years ago and it made my blood
boil. The parents highly objected to the
school nurse who stripped the girls and
searched them to see if they were sexu-
ally active ... this was in a junior high.
The schools have taken upon them-
selves to escort girls to have an abor-
tion, all without parent consent. Where
is the outrage?
Parents are the only guardians of
their children and unfortunately most
parents have no idea what their chil-
dren are being taught. We have let the
educational system take control of our
children and teach them whatever they
want to teach them. Parents assume the
children are not being indoctrinated
into what is so-called socially correct
morality, morality that may be very
different from what parents teach their
children at home. No wonder our
schools are failing to educate when the
force behind the new education system
is to indoctrinate. Parents need to speak
out, read the textbooks and curriculum
and make sure their children are not
becoming victims. Thank goodness one
parent stood up for her children. More
parents need to do the same thing.

Traffic lights in
downtown San Mateo
Editor,
I recently witnessed the fact that all
the downtown San Mateo trafc lights
on Fourth Avenue from the railroad
tracks all the way to El Camino were
red. That indicates that there is no syn-
chronization and that means the ow of
trafc is not optimized, just as if we did
not really know that.
Come to think of it, why does the
city of San Mateo not implement a
well-designed one-way system down-
town or at the very least make some
intersections right turn only? Is that too
difcult, you think? Even the city of
San Jose could do it.

W
eve all seen the headlines.
Theyre as gruesome and
disturbing as any in the
world, and theyre all the more disturb-
ing because theyre relatively close to
home:
Twenty-two bodies found in Mexico
City over a recent weekend. Thirty-ve
bodies dumped like yesterdays trash
along the side of a busy Veracruz high-
way. The bodies of 17 musicians and
crew members of a band found in an
abandoned well near Monterrey.
Mexicos narco-fueled terror rampage
has become so commonplace that the
horror stories barely rate as news. ...
For these reasons and others, the
Obama administration needs to make
sure that its focus on the Middle East
and other trouble spots around the
world doesnt blind it to the mutual
opportunities of close neighborly ties.
With President Enrique Pena Nieto in
the early weeks of his presidency, its
an opportune time.
Writing in a recent issue of Foreign
Affairs, Shannon K. ONeil, a Latin
American expert at the Council on
Foreign Relations, points out that it also
is time for this country to start seeing
Mexico as a partner instead of a prob-
lem.
She noted in a recent interview with
the Chronicle that Mexico is now the
second-largest export destination for
U.S. goods, after Canada and twice
as much as China and that Mexico is
both Texas and Houstons biggest trad-
ing partner.
More than a billion dollars worth of
legal goods cross the U.S.-Mexican
border into this country each day. An
estimated 6 million U.S. jobs depend
on U.S-Mexico trade.
Approximately 40 percent of the
products made in Mexico have parts
that come from this country.
Mexico still has challenges, certainly,
but the vital signs are strong. Whatever
Mexicos future holds, the United
States will be affected.
U.S. should not view Mexico as a problem
By Ted J. Hannig
W
ith all the current discussion about marriage
equality rights, there is a terrible wrong in our
country. I have the solution to set us straight.
Now is the time to act as our Supreme Court focuses on con-
stitutional rights surrounding marriage. As I recently viewed
our countrys original founding documents in the National
Archives, I was inspired to express my views about rights.
My modest proposal is a constitutional ban prohibiting cer-
tain persons from marrying, and dening marriage in our
Constitution to be solely between what
constitutes 90 percent of our population.
Ten percent of our population claims to
be born with a condition they say is not a
matter of choice, but of genetics. Twice
as many men as women are affected. The
Bible and our Constitution tell us its evil
and wrong. That regrettable condition is
left-handedness. Geneticists now tell us
that the handedness gene has been
identied. The good news is that by preventing marriage of
left-handers, we can stop handedness deviation from putting
us all at greater risk.
For those few who think I am being heavy right-handed,
let me explain: Statistics show left-handedness can be dan-
gerous. From soldiers to pilots to surgeons, we all need them
to be of the same hand when using tools, instruments and
making decisions. Statistically, left-handers have more acci-
dents, are prone to more disease and have a higher suicide
rate. Hundreds of years ago, the Catholic Church declared
left-handed people to be associated with the devil. In the
Arab world, the right hand is used to touch parts of the body
above the waist, while the left hand is used for below the
belt. Naturally, then, left-handers go below the belt them-
selves in argument, falsely claiming to be equal in the eyes
of God, our country and among family because, they assert,
all of us are born equal.
God is not on their leftist side; for He warned in the Bible
of a city where residents were so sinful they could not dis-
cern between their right hand and their left hand, meaning
they could not tell the difference between good (right) or evil
(left). In Matthew 6:3, Jesus instructed his followers that
when they do charitable things, to not let thy left hand
know what thy right hand doeth. However, as compelling as
the religious argument is, consideration need not end with
religion, for there are heathens among us.
Our Founding Fathers created not a Bill of Lefts but our
Bill of Rights. Your own mother knew to refer to the uncon-
sumed remnants of a meal as not rightovers but leftovers.
By refusing marriage rights to the lefties among us, we
can minimize the genetic potential that new lefties might be
conceived and born. The genetic probability for two right-
handed parents having a left-handed child is just 2 percent.
But the probability for two left-handed (homo-handed) par-
ents having a left-handed child is a whopping 46 percent.
Statistics dont lie. Our rst order of business is stopping
lefties from procreating.
But also we need to fear the mere exposure of lefties to
our impressionable youth who might be tempted to try left-
handedness. Certainly we should keep lefties away from
leadership positions such as scouting and teaching as such
exposure could lead to experimentation with ambidextrous
behavior.
While Lady Gaga and lady genetics might try to tell us
lefties were born this way, it need not mean they have to
accept their condition. We can make them choose, for if they
just ignore their genetics and choose to become right-handed
they can be accorded all the rights of marriage. If lefties are
denied marriage rights but choose right-handedness
lifestyles, they need not worry about discrimination with
taxes, jobs, housing or even at hospitals when they want to
see their loved one but cannot because they are not legally
married.
Join us at the national level People Obsessed Over
Handedness (POOH), and at the local level Citizens
Right-handed Advocacy Program (CRAP). Your donation
can make sure that POOH continues to be spread throughout
our country and CRAP is taught in our schools. We must
block groups seeking to ban discrimination based on birth
characteristics, particularly groups such as Never Oppose
Human Attributes and Teach Equality (NOHATE). For the
NOHATERs would have us consider marriage equality a
civil right emanating from our Bill of Rights. What is next.
... the radical proposition that all persons are created equal?

Big movers

Strong company earnings boosted
stocks on Wall Street Friday. Investors
also saw a chance to add to their hold-
ings after declines earlier in the week.
Nike reported a surge in quarterly
prot, sending its stock price to a record.
Tiffany topped earnings predictions,
boosted by demand from customers in
Asia.
Investors were also drawn by a pause
in the markets big run-up. The Standard
& Poors 500 index logged its second
weekly decline of the year, despite
Fridays gains.
The damper on U.S. stock markets
was caused by another worrisome chap-
ter in Europes debt crisis, and some dis-
appointing corporate news.
The Mediterranean island nation of
Cyprus, a banking haven, is struggling to
devise a plan to avoid nancial collapse.
Stocks were also weighed down on
Thursday by weak sales from Oracle.
That news brought down technology
stocks.
FedEx ended the week 10 percent
lower after it reported a drop in quarter-
ly prot and cut its annual earnings fore-
cast on Wednesday. The company is a
gauge of the economy because so many
shoppers and businesses use its shipping
services.
On Friday, investors took advantage of
the markets down week and ramped up
their stock buying.
A resilient global economy has
encouraged investors to pick up stocks
on any dips, said Ron Florance, manag-
ing director of investment strategy at
Wells Fargo Private Bank.
We still have an astonishing amount
of money sitting on the sidelines, said
Florance.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose
90.54 points, or 0.6 percent, to
14,512.03 Friday. The Standard &
Poors 500 index rose 11.09 points, or
0.7 percent, to 1,556.89. The Nasdaq
composite gained 22.40 points, or 0.7
percent, to 3,245.
Nike shares hit an all-time high, rising
$5.93, or 11 percent, to $59.53 after the
company reported a 55 percent spike in
quarterly net income. Tiffany rose $1.32,
or 1.9 percent, to $69.23 after its strong
fourth-quarter earnings.

Techie fired after
Tweeting about mens comments
SAN JOSE A female technology developer has been
red after tweeting about a group of men she said were mak-
ing sexual comments at a Silicon Valley technology confer-
ence.
Adria Richards wrote on her blog, butyouragirl.com, that
she was seated in a ballroom at the Santa Clara conference
Sunday when the men behind her started talking about big
dongles.
A dongle is a device that plugs into a computer, but Richards
tweeted that the men made the comment in a sexual way.
After hearing their remarks, Richards turned around, took a
photo of the men and posted it on Twitter with their alleged
comments.
The men were escorted from the room by conference staff
after Richards spoke to them about the mens behavior and the
staff saw her tweets. The conference, PyCon 2013, was for
people working on Python programming language.
Richards worked for SendGrid, a technology company with
ofces in Orange County and Colorado. CEO Jim Franklin
wrote on the companys website that SendGrid agreed with
Richards right to report the incident to Pycon staff, but not the
way she reported it.
Her decision to tweet the comments and photographs of the
people who made the comments crossed the line, Franklin
wrote in a blog post on the site. Publicly shaming the offend-
ers and bystanders was not the appropriate way to han-
dle the situation.
Franklin said Richards put the companys business in dan-
ger, divided the developer community and could no longer be
effective at the company.
Tiffany 4Q net income rises less than 1 percent
NEW YORK Tiffany says its fourth-quarter net income
edged up less than 1 percent, but still beat Wall Street predic-
tions as strong customer demand in Asia for its pricey baubles
offset weakness in the U.S.
The upscale jewelry company also offered an annual sales
outlook that topped analysts estimates, and its shares rose
nearly 2 percent Friday.
The results, which include the critical holiday season, show
Tiffanys resilience even as it faces challenges in the U.S. and
a scal crisis in Europe.
For the quarter ended Jan. 31, Tiffany earned $179.6 million,
or $1.40 per share. Revenue rose 4 percent to $1.24 billion.
Marin Software rises in debut on the NYSE
NEW YORK Shares of Marin Software climbed nearly
27 percent in their rst day as a publicly traded company.
The software companys stock rose $3.76, or 26.9 percent,
to $17.76 in morning trading.
Marin Software Inc. raised $105 million in the initial public
offering. The San Francisco company priced the IPO at $14
per share, above the expected price range of $11 to $13 a
piece.
The size of the IPO increased to 7.5 million shares from 7
million shares.
The underwriters are getting a 30-day option to buy up to an
additional 1.1 million shares at the IPO price.

WASHINGTON A federal appeals
court has sided with the Food and Drug
Administration in a case brought by
medical device maker Cytori, ruling that
the agency was correct to reject fast-
track approval for two company devices
used to process adult stem cells.
Cytori Therapeutics Inc. makes the
Celution and StemSource devices which
separate adult stem cells from fat tissue
using a combination of spinning motions
and chemical reactions. The company is
studying the technology for a variety of
medical uses, including breast recon-
struction, burn healing and treating dam-
aged heart tissue. The technology has
even been adopted by some plastic sur-
geons, who claim adult stem cells can be
injected into the face, breast and other
areas to create a younger look.
Medical devices cannot be marketed
in the U.S. without prior approval by the
FDA.
Cytori asked the FDA in 2011 to
approve the Celution and StemSource
devices using a fast-track pathway
reserved for devices that are similar to
products already on the market. Cytori
argued that its technology is similar to
that used to process cells from blood and
bone marrow.
The FDA rejected that argument and
told the company it would need to apply
through a more rigorous process that
involves large studies with human par-
ticipants.
A three-judge panel backed that deci-
sion in a ruling issued Friday.
FDA concluded and explained that
fat is not blood and that the difference
matters. A court is ill-equipped to sec-
ond-guess that kind of agency scientic
judgment, states the opinion, written by
Judge Brett Kavanaugh. After careful
review, we nd FDAs assessment both
reasonable and reasonably explained.
The ruling was signed by fellow
Judges Janice Rogers Brown and David
Sentelle of the U.S. Court of Appeals for
the District of Columbia.

NEW YORK Ka-ching! The cash
register may be on its nal sale.
Stores across the country are ditching
the old-fashioned, clunky machines and
having salespeople and even shop-
pers themselves ring up sales on
smartphones and tablet computers.
Barneys New York, a luxury retailer,
this year plans to use iPads or iPod
Touch devices for credit and debit card
purchases in seven of its nearly two
dozen regular-price stores. Urban
Outtters, a teen clothing chain, ordered
its last traditional register last fall and
plans to go completely mobile one day.
And Wal-Mart, the worlds largest
retailer, is testing a Scan & Go app
that lets customers scan their items as
they shop.
The traditional cash register is head-
ing toward obsolescence, said Danielle
Vitale, chief operating ofcer of Barneys
New York.
That the cash register is getting the
boot is no surprise. The writing has been
on the wall for a long time for the iconic
machine, which was created in the late
1800s.

During a press conference prior to
the start of the 2013 College of San
Mateo softball season, head coach
Nicole Borg mentioned the name
Talisa Fiame and almost immediate-
ly a smile appeared on her face.
The same happened when star ace
pitcher Michelle Pilster brought up
her second baseman.
She been a pleasant surprise,
Borg said. Shell do things on the
eld where you go where did that
come from?
Thirty-one games into the CSM
season and apparently Fiame ceases
to amaze her CSM coaches and
teammates with her game.
Fiame had a perfect day at the
plate in CSMs latest win, an 11-2
shelling of the No. 6 ranked West
Valley Vikings.
The five-inning win keeps the
Bulldogs as the states top-ranked
softball team.
Fiame, a second baseman out of
Pacicas Terra Nova High School,
had seven RBIs, including two
homers one a grand slam in the
second inning and went 4-for-4
from the dish. She also had two sin-
gles and scored three runs.
Her second homer was a two-run,
walk-off shot over the left center-
eld fence in the fth that sent
everyone home via the mercy rule.
All this from a player who told
reporters after the game she never
hit a home run in high school.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. It was a
bad day for Rockies pitchers.
In Scottsdale, Christian Friedrich

More troublesome, though, was
the news out of Rockies camp that

Chacin pitched for Venezuela in
the World Baseball Classic and has

Rosati adds offense to dominant D
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
You could feel it every single time the
Woodside High School girls soccer team
earned a dead-ball restart deep in their
opponents territory.
It was a cold chill. A heightening of the
soccer senses. Like in the first Jaws
movie when the da-rum, da-rum started
and you knew something dangerous was
lurking.
As all 21 players scrambled to their
positions anticipating the restart, all eyes
shifted and locked onto one player jog-
ging her way up to the offensive end from
deep outside her sweeper position.
The shark in the water was Woodsides
Giana Rosati.
And when the referee blew his whistle
to restart the game, the Wildcat world
held their collective breath every single
time in 2012-13 because there was a
chance goal-scoring magic was about to
happen.

Cuse prepares for upset-minded Cal
By Josh Dubow
The Associated Press
SAN JOSE Jim Boeheims
teams at Syracuse have thrived on
their zone defense for decades,
using long, athletic players to dis-
rupt opposing offenses to the tune of
more than 900 wins and a national
title.
California coach Mike
Montgomery has been more of a
proponent of man-to-man defense
during his stellar coaching career,
using the zone more as an occasion-
al changeup than a base defense.
Montgomery has even jokingly
mocked his friend, Boeheim, over
the years for his reliance on the 2-3
zone.
So Boeheim got a piece of vindi-
cation when he saw the 12th-seeded
Golden Bears (21-11) stay almost
exclusively in a zone defense in a
win over UNLV that set up a
matchup with No. 4 seed Syracuse
(27-9) in the third round of the
NCAA tournament Saturday.
Hes a man-to-man coach, he
always has been, Boeheim said
Friday. But Ive always said if you
dont have some zone just in your
pocket, I dont think youre smart.
For a long time there were a lot of
coaches that werent very smart. But
now most of them I guess are
because pretty much everybody has
some zone.
Few teams have played it better
over the years than the Orange.
Boeheim recruits big, athletic wing
players who can close out quickly
on shooters and the players are so
well-versed in the defense because
they rarely play, or practice, any-
thing else.
This years squad has been one of
Boeheims best defensively, with
the Orange ranking third in the
nation in eld goal defense (37 per-
cent) and 10th in 3-point defense
(29 percent).
They know exactly what theyre
trying to do, Montgomery said.
They know exactly what the rules
are as far as where theyre not going
to let the ball go and why. It makes
it very effective. When you do
something 35 times a year, 40 min-
utes a game for 30 years, somebody
has got it gured out. And theyve
been successful with it.
The defense has been a staple all
season for the Orange, who over-
came a rough patch in February
against a brutal Big East schedule to
play perhaps their best basketball of
the season during the tournaments
in March.
With James Southerland, C.J. Fair
and Brandon Triche nding their
stroke from the outside, Syracuse
has gotten back on track after losing
four of ve games to end the regular
season. The losses all came to teams
Louisville, Georgetown (twice)
and Marquette that got top-three
seeds in the NCAA tournament after
sharing the Big East regular-season
crown.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Kansas
State coach Bruce Weber challenged
his team at halftime to show some
emotion.
It overflowed once the final
buzzer sounded.
The fourth-seeded Wildcats had
frantically rallied from an 18-point
decit against No. 13 seed La Salle,
even taking the lead late in the
game. But a sudden cold streak at
the worst of times, along with three
critical foul shots by the Explorers
Jerrell Wright, left Kansas State
stinging from a 63-61 loss in the
second round of the NCAA tourna-
ment.
I asked them at halftime to com-
pete, and they said, Coach, we want
to win, said Weber, his own voice
cracking. We didnt make it. Its
sad, sad for our guys.
Wright, who scored a game-high
21 points for La Salle (22-9), made
the rst of his two clutch free throws
to take a 62-61 lead with 30 seconds
left in the game.
Kansas States Jordan Henriquez
missed in the paint at the other end,
and Wright was quickly fouled,
making the rst of two more foul
shots with 9.6 seconds to go.
The Wildcats (27-8) raced down
court, looking for a tying basket, but
guard Angel Rodriguez got hung up
in the corner near the Kansas State
bench. His off-balance shot over the
corner of the backboard missed
everything, and the Explorers
jumped off their bench to celebrate.
They made the plays down the
stretch and we didnt, said Weber,
who decided to let his guys free-
lance on the nal possession rather
than calling a timeout and designing
a play.
As soon as Rodriguez got boxed
in, Weber said he tried to get that
timeout but the referees couldnt
hear him over the roar of the crowd.
I guess its my fault, he said. I
waited too long.
Ramon Galloway scored 15 of his
19 points in the rst half, and Sam
Mills added 10 points for La Salle,
which beat Boise State in one of the
First Four games just to reach
Kansas City, and now has won two
games in the NCAA tournament for
the rst time since 1955.
No. 13 seed La Salle
beats No. 4 K-State
KANSAS CITY, Mo.
Wisconsins vaunted defense did its
job, holding Mississippi to its low-
est point total of the year.
It was the suspect offense that
failed. The Badgers put up 59 shots
against Ole Miss on Friday but
made only 15 of them. So Bo
Ryans team headed home after a
57-46 loss that snapped a six-year
string of rst-game wins for one of
the NCAAs most consistently suc-
cessful programs of the past 15
years.
A lot of times with a good team
like that, things will spiral away
from you, said Sam Dekker, who
had 14 points and was the only
Badger in double gures. They just
outworked us in the last 8 or 9 min-
utes, really took it to us, and we did-
nt know how to handle it.
M a r s h a l l H e n d e r s o n ,
Mississippis flamboyant guard,
missed 12 of his first 13 shots and
was 0 for 6 from 3-point land when
he finally connected for a long 3-
pointer. Then he remained unusual-
ly stoic and businesslike while
scoring 17 of his 19 points in the
second half and leading the Rebels
to a 57-46 victory.
We knew Henderson was going
to get going, said Dekker. I
thought we did a good job on him in
the rst half making him hit tough
shots. He got hot, did what he does.
I think that was part of the differ-
ence.
To Ryan, it was a season-like
weakness catching up with the
Badgers.
We won a lot of close games,
beat a lot of good teams, said Ryan.
But again, its not a team that real-
ly shot the ball well all year. It hap-
pened again.
Marshall had a simple explanation
for why he remained so stoic and
businesslike, keeping under wraps
the on-the-court antics hes become
famous for.
You cant go a little crazy when
you go one for your rst 17, said
Marshall, the leading scorer in the
Southeastern Conference. I know
what I can do and what I cant do,
and thats not the time, no.
Hendersons futility reached its
zenith with about 12 minutes to go
when he fumbled the ball in the
Wisconsin back court.

It was a completely different story just a
year ago when Woodside was absolutely zero
threat from the corner kick or a set piece.
Head coach Jose Navarette said the Wildcats
did not score in those kinds of situations at all.
And that was the case for a variety of reasons
mostly, it was because the 6-4 Rosati was
the one sending the ball into the box on the
restarts.
We decided to invest more time with that
to try and take advantage of Gianas size,
Navarette said. People dont realize shes
more athletic than she looks. She has better
foot skill than people give her credit for. So I
said, we need to take advantage of that. That
needs to be something that should work in our
favor, not just once, but every game.
Fortunately, things panned out for us.
Pan out? With the programs rst Central
Coast Section title since 1977 sitting cozily in
the schools trophy case, wed say it more that
just panned out.
The added element of Rosati on the set
piece made Woodside the most dangerous
and feared team in the Peninsula Athletic
League maybe one of the most in the CCS.
The added element of Rosati on the corner
kick made the leagues best defensive player
and sweeper its most lethal nisher at least
as matters of the head are concerned.
And today, the added element of Rosati on
offense makes her the San Mateo Daily
Journal Girls Soccer Player of the Year.
Something just clicked, Rosati said. Just
one day I realized, hey, I head the ball all the
time on defense. I win balls all the time in the
air on my side of the eld. Why cant I do it
on the offensive side of eld? So, I think I
just set my mind to know that I could do it. I
didnt focus on the players. I didnt have to
worry about anything, just getting my head on
the ball.
A year after zero header goals for Rosati,
No. 25 nished 14 goals in 2012-13 (second
on the team) all of which game via the set
piece. Its an impressive tally considering that
Rosati spent most of the time away from the
offensive end of the eld managing a defense
that allowed only 11 girls (in 23 games) this
season.
I dont know of another player that has
been that big of a factor in deciding games in
a season, Navarette said. This kid really
believes in herself. I do, but wow, its a level
that she just believes so much in her abilities
because she believes she can outwork any-
body. Shes a competitor. Shes very tena-
cious. Her composure in those situations is
amazing.
It wasnt just the bulk of Rosatis goals.
More often than not, No. 25 was involved in
equalizing games or putting Woodside ahead
nine to be exact ensuring her team n-
ished the year at 19-0-4, the only unbeaten
team in CCS.
I have condence but I dont know if I felt
like I could score every time, Rosati said. I
was always hoping to get the opportunity.
Thats all I wanted because I knew I could
help my team if I could go up for a set piece.
I would just do my best when I got up there to
score.
And while we speak of Rosatis offensive
game like shes a seasoned striker, her set-
piece game is still very much a work in
progress. Plus, she accomplished all her
offensive success while anchoring a rock-
solid defense good enough to go the year with
allowing more than one goal only twice (both
times in the CCS playoffs) and collecting 15
shutouts.
I felt like I denitely improved defensive-
ly, but, when you have such a great rst line of
defense (the mideld), I didnt get to see a ton
of action, as much as I would see if I wasnt
playing sweeper, Rosati said. We played
really tough competition, so I do think I
improved defensively.
I felt like I had a big responsibility for
keeping everything organized. And also, I
took a lot of responsibility for keeping my
team modest and focused. I feel like that was
one of my largest roles keeping everyone
calm and focused on playing soccer and not
caught up in the excitement of how well we
were doing.

Raiders sign LB Kaelin Burnett
ALAMEDA The Oakland Raiders have
re-signed linebacker Kaelin Burnett to an
exclusive-rights deal.
The team announced the deal on Friday.
Burnett played six games for Oakland last
season, mostly appearing on special teams. He
had one tackle on the season.
The Raiders recently signed Burnetts older
brother, Kevin, to a free-agent contract to play
linebacker for the team.
Rose stays in front at Bay Hill
ORLANDO, Fla. Bill Haas wanted to
atone for the way he nished his opening
round. He did that and more Friday and was
tied for the lead in the Arnold Palmer
Invitational.
That sure wasnt the case for Tiger Woods.
One shot out of the lead with three holes to
play, Woods closed with three sloppy bogeys
to fall four shots behind going into the week-
end. That makes the chore a little more dif-
cult in his bid to defend his title at Bay Hill
and return to No. 1 in the world.
The good news is weve got 36 holes to
go, Woods said. Weve got a long way to go.
And certainly four shots can be made up.
Haas not only kept bogeys off his card, his
longest putt for par was no more than 4 feet in
a clean round of 6-under 66.
He was tied with Justin Rose, who was

DETROIT Mixed martial arts promoters
Christo Piliafas and Scott DiPonio were
shocked to learn that one of their ghters was
a suspect in the holdup of a Michigan gun
shop this week.
After all, it was only two weeks ago that
they raised more than $1,000 to help the ama-
teur heavyweights family pay for his funeral.
Charles Rowan, 25, didnt die in a February
car wreck while en route to his fth bout, as
his girlfriend, Rosalinda Martinez, claimed
that night, according to DiPonio. The couple
and a friend, Michael Bowman, were in a
Gladwin courtroom on Friday to hear the
charges against them: armed robbery and
assault with intent to murder. Each requested
a court-appointed attorney.
DiPonio, who owns the Diamond D ght
team, said he realized they had been duped
when he saw Rowans mug shot on television
identifying him a person of interest in the
Monday robbery of Guns and Stuff, about 100
miles southeast of Traverse City. The stores
owner, Richard Robinette, was severely beat-
en and remained in serious but stable condi-
tion Friday in a Flint hospital.
I almost passed out. It was literally that
bad. My girlfriend looked at me and immedi-
ately just started crying, he said. I was in
disbelief. ... It took me literally an hour until I
could actually focus and think again. It was
just unbelievable.
Piliafas, who ghts professionally as The
Mad Greek in addition to running promo-
tional company Caged Aggression, said he
had just returned from a bout in Poland when
an associate texted him a link to the mug shot.
It made me sick to my stomach. I was furi-
ous. I was livid, he said. Its not so much
about the money. Its just how many people
were involved in this scam. ... The little bit
that I knew (about) this kid, I never would
have thought that hed try to pull some
Machiavelli crap like that.
DiPonio said Rowan approached him at a
show a year-and-a-half ago and said hed like
to give MMA a shot. The results were mixed
the 200-plus-pound heavyweight recorded
a 1-3 record as an amateur but DiPonio
said his work ethic and attitude were strong.

DES MOINES, Iowa Wrestling has two
shots left at a return to the Olympic program,
and neither will be easy.
But U.S. wrestling ofcials appeared to
have settled on which one they think is the
best bet.
Former world champion Bill Scherr, the
chairman of a committee of top American
wrestling gures, said Friday that he thinks
the sports best chance to remain an Olympic
sport is to beat out the likes of squash, roller
sports and karate for re-inclusion as a provi-
sional sport in the 2020 Olympics.
Perhaps our better avenue to stay in the
Games is to win the competition against the
provisional sports, Scherr said. We need to
canvass those 15 IOC executive board mem-
bers to make sure we get on that short list.
Though the International Olympic
Committee recommended in February to
remove wrestling from the 2020 Olympics,
that move is far from nal.
Wrestling will compete with seven other
sports for a provisional spot in the 2020
Games in a vote in May.
But ofcials also will lobby the 114-mem-
ber IOC General Session in September in
hopes it will overturn the executive boards
recommendation by a simple majority vote.
The rst step for U.S. ofcials following
what Scherr called a bombshell decision by
the IOC was to organize the Committee to
Preserve Olympic Wrestling ahead of the May
vote in St. Petersburg, Russia.
Scherr joined wrestling great Dan Gable,
2012 Olympic champion Jordan Burroughs
and Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), a two-time
NCAA champion for Wisconsin, at the NCAA
championships in Des Moines to discuss the
committees progress.
Wrestling hopes for provisional Olympic status
start. The plan is to give him a couple of
innings (Saturday), but we wont stretch him
out.
Chacin, 23-31 with a 3.68 ERA in 82 career
games (67 starts), was named the starter for
Colorados April 1 opener in Milwaukee by
Weiss on Tuesday. He was 3-5 with a 4.43
ERA in 2012, a season that was shortened by
a pectoral muscle injury.
Fredrich, who is coming back from his own
back problems that have hampered his spring
and likely cost him a shot at the starting rota-
tion, allowed ve hits home runs to Hunter
Pence and Brandon Belt in three innings.
Miguel Batista also allowed four runs in two
innings.
Belt raised his spring average to.439 with
two homers, a ground-rule double, and a sin-
gle while driving in four runs.
This is the time of year, getting closer to
opening day, that you want to stay as
locked in as possible. Im seeing the ball
well, feeling good and ready to get start-
ed, said Belt, who had seven home runs
last season but has six this spring, the most
of any player in the Cactus League.
Belt hit .275 last year and at 25, feels he is
ready to take the next step in his career.
Im not the same play-
er I was, from a mental
aspect and everything
else, he said. I know
what to expect going out
there. I know there will be
some bumps in the road,
but I also know that I can
come out on the other
side. Im going in with a
lot more condence this
year.
Belt had three hits against lefties, another
area hes work hard to improve on.
Its something to take personally as a left-
handed hitter, that you cant hit left-handed
pitchers, he said. I want to show them that I
can.
Belt was a triple shy of the cycle in the sev-
enth when he sent a drive to left-center. It
cleared the fence.
I thought I hit it pretty good. If I had hit
one down the line, I was denitely going for
the cycle, he said.
Nick Noonan and Mark Minicozzi also
homered for the Giants, who had 15 hits.
Carlos Gonazlez had a two-run homer for the
Rockies in the rst inning.

Fiame was an All-PAL Bay Division second
teamer who is adapting incredibly well to the
junior college game. Fiame now has six
homers, seven doubles and 36 RBIs while bat-
ting .394.
Fiame said the big, night-and-day improve-
ment to her offensive game comes because of
the coaching staff at CSM. And while the
credit should indeed go to Borg and her staff,
Fiames breakthrough season is incredible
considering its out of nowhere nature.
Fiame has slowly moved up the CSM line-
up and Borg said putting the former Tiger into
the four slot of the lineup was a conscious
move. While it may only look like one spot on
top of her accustomed fth place in the order,
the power position in the CSM lineup is one
full of added weight, pressure and responsi-
bility especially in a program ripe with
talent like CSMs. Fiame has taken the pro-
motion in stride.
Pilster (Capuchino) won her state-leading
21st game, striking out six to increase her
state lead in that category to 137. Her won-
loss record is now 21-2 after the West Valley
victory.
Selina Rodriquez (El Camino) went 3-for-4,
had an RBI and scored three runs. Mikayla
Conlin went 3-for-3 with a run and an RBI.
Natalie Saucedo (Burlingame) and Jamie
Navarro (Capuchino) each had two hits and
scored runs as part of a 16-hit barrage.
CSM, the states winningest team is now
28-3, 7-2 in Coast North play leading
Foothill College (19-10, 7-3) by a half game.
West Valley is 22-5-1, 4-4 in Coast South.
The Vikings are ranked No. 3 in Northern
California and No. 6 in the state. CSM is No.
1 in both polls, including a unanimous choice
as the top team in the north.
Taking the loss for West Valley was Ellie
Kristensen (18-4), who trails only Pilster in
wins among the states 85 teams. She gave up
16 hits and 11 earned runs and failed to strike-
out any San Mateo player.
The states top four pitchers in total victo-
ries are all from the very tough Coast
Conference.
CSM TRACK
At the De Anza Invitational, CSM sopho-
more Roman Skovronski ran the No. 2 time in
the state in the 400 meter hurdles, 53.40, and
freshman Kevin Kutchera had the No. 4 time,
54.18. Kutchera also has the No. 9 time in the
110 meter high hurdles, 15.14, posted the pre-
vious week.
Sophomore Evan McDaniel threw the dis-
cus 156-7 for the third best mark in the state.
He continues to lead the state in the shot put
(54-10).
Freshman Moreen Pahulu improved her
state ranking in both the discus throw, No. 21
at 117-1, and the shot put, No. 34 at 33-10.

By Rob Maadi
DUNEDIN, Fla. Jose Reyes
bounced around the clubhouse
exuding his usual energy and joked
with a few teammates before putting
on his Toronto Blue Jays uniform.
Back from helping the Dominican
Republic win the World Baseball
Classic, Reyes is eager to help his
new team contend in a tough AL
East. Theres no WBC hangover for
the four-time All-Star shortstop.
I dont want to play down. I want
to play the same way I played in the
WBC because the season is right
around the corner, Reyes said
Friday. Im going to continue to
work on my game and be ready to
go.
Reyes was back in the leadoff
spot in Torontos lineup for the rst
time since March 2. He went 0 for 1
with two walks in a 1-0 win over
Boston. Blue Jays designated hitter
Edwin Encarnacion also returned to
the team after playing for the
Dominican Republic. He didnt start
against the Red Sox because of a
nger injury.
The laid-back atmosphere at
spring training doesnt compare to
the intensity level of the WBC
games where theres so much pride
at stake playing for your country.
While Reyes doesnt need much
motivation, other players could take
a little time to adjust.
Im sure itll be a little bit of a
letdown, Blue Jays manager John
Gibbons said. Im sure theyre glad
to be back with their team. A guy
like Reyes, hes enthusiastic about
everything he does.
Robinson Cano, the MVP of the
WBC, returned to the New York
Yankees on Thursday, and picked up
their only hit in a loss to Minnesota
on Thursday night. The four-time
All-Star second baseman is even
more important to the Yankees now
that theyre missing Alex
Rodriguez, Mark Teixeira and
Curtis Granderson, and Derek
Jeters status is uncertain.
I want to play the game the same
way with the same intensity, he
said. Its a different mindset in
spring training than playing in the
WBC. You dont want to overdo it.
You have to go out there and play
hard and prepare for the season.
Tony Pena, the Yankees bench
coach, managed the Dominican
Republic to the island nations rst
international title in its third try. He
stressed to his players the impor-
tance of working hard and carrying
their success over into the regular
season with their major league
teams.
We talked about them keeping
the intensity, Pena said. In the
WBC, they played with so much
emotion. Hopefully they continue
the same thing.
The Minnesota Twins had 13
players compete in the WBC, tied
with Milwaukee for most in the
majors. Manager Ron Gardenhire
hasnt noticed his guys lacking
focus or playing with any less ener-
gy since returning.

NICOSIA, Cyprus
Lawmakers in Cyprus approved
three key bills Friday that aim to
raise enough money to qualify the
country for a broader bailout pack-
age and help it avoid financial ruin
in mere days.
A total of nine bills were
approved, including a key one on
restructuring the countrys ailing
banks, which lost billions on bad
Greek debt; one on restricting
financial transactions in times of
crisis; and one that sets up a sol-
idarity fund into which invest-
ments and contributions will
flow.
More bills to meet the total target
of 5.8 billion euros ($7.5 billion)
Cyprus needs to secure an interna-
tional bailout will be brought for a
vote over the weekend.
They include a crucial one that
would impose a tax of less than 1
percent on all bank deposits, said
Averof Neophytou, deputy head of
the governing DISY party.
We are voting for the least
worst option, Neophytou said in a
speech. We owe an apology to the
Cypriot people because we all
share in the responsibility of
bringing this place to this state.
Approval of the tax would come
just days after Parliament decisive-
ly turned down a plan that would
have seized up to 10 percent of
peoples bank deposits. The plan
triggered an outcry from people
who condemned it as an unfair
grab of their life savings, while
politicians saw it as causing
irreparable damage to the coun-
trys financial center status.
Nonetheless, ordinary Cypriots
have said they would willingly
sacrifice a portion of their savings
to save the country just as long
as somebody doesnt impose it on
them.
If we have Europes support so
our banks wont collapse, I would-
nt have a problem with a deposit
tax, said pensioner Demetrakis
Papanicolaou, 64. But we need to
hear this not only from our govern-
ment, but from the Europeans.
Cyprus lawmakers approve key bills for bailout

LOCAL
Institute study found flame-retardant chemi-
cals in household dust samples and Blums
report showed children and domestic pets
could have higher levels of retardants in
their systems.
Were concerned that these toxic chemi-
cals have been added to furniture in our
homes, in our community ... there are effects
to our health, said Ana Mascarenas, policy
and communications director for Physicians
for Social Responsibility.
Based on continuing research and growing
concern, the governor instructed the Bureau
of Electronic and Appliance Repair, Home
Furnishings and Thermal Insulation to
assess the antiquated standard. In February,
the bureau returned a proposed update now
known as TB 117-2013.
The update changes the requirements of
upholstered furniture to withstand smolder-
ing instead of an open flame. Materials
would undergo exposure to a lit cigarette as
an ignition source. A specimen passes the
test if smoldering ceases after a cigarette
burns its full length, a char doesnt radiate
more than 1.8 inches from the cigarette and
the smoldering doesnt turn into an open
flame.
I think anyone could clearly see the wis-
dom in moving from the current fire safety
standard, said Leno, D-San Francisco.
Leno has authored several bills relating to
Californias flammability standard. In 2011,
Lenos Senate Bill 147 would have allowed
consumers to opt out of purchasing furniture
and baby products that contain toxic chemi-
cal fire retardants.
Leno faced opposition from the flame
retardant industry and claims powerful lob-
byists are using tactics dating back to the
tobacco industry. Operating under the guise
of the Californians for Fire Safety Institute,
these out-of-state advocates were made up
by three major chemical companies;
Albermarle Corp., Chemtura Corp. and ICL
Industrial Products. Their fear tactics
included graphic images of burning children
and led the public to withdraw in fear, Leno
said.
They spent $6 million in radio, televi-
sion, full page color ads in newspapers,
mailers [and] robo-calls to constituents
telling them to contact their legislature and
vote no on our bill, Leno said.
CFSI allegedly paid expert witnesses to lie
during testimony in Sacramento by citing
purportedly related deaths that never
occurred, Leno said.
In 2012, CFSI elected to conduct their
advocacy efforts through the American
Chemistry Councils North American Flame
Retardant Alliance. NAFRA members con-
tinue to be comprised of leading chemical
manufacturers; however, NAFRA could not
comment on the previous actions of the
CFSI.
Californias Proposition 65 requires busi-
nesses to label items that contain, in any
amount, chemicals known to cause cancer,
birth defects or other reproductive harm.
This is a motivating factor of the current
debate, said Jackson Morrill, NAFRA panel
manager. Advancements in testing have
allowed detection of these chemicals in very
low amounts; what should be taken into con-
sideration is the amount a person can be
exposed to without suffering significant risk,
Morrill said.
The issue has been oversimplified; not all
flame retardants are the same and each
needs to be addressed independently, Morrill
said.
It is important to remember that flame
retardants are subject to review by scientists
at regulatory agencies, Morrill said.
Based on a Tulchin Research 2012 tele-
phone poll of likely voters, Morrill believes
the flame retardants role in fire safety is
critical to the public. Of the 800 polled, 79
percent believed flame retardants used in
household products improve public safety
and 54 percent opposed changing the fire
safety standards to a smolder-only test. It is
unclear as to whether the toxicity of the
chemicals was taken into consideration.
Fire safety is getting lost in the discus-
sion. Fire standards should be designed to
keep people safe from fire. But, in this
instance, they are being misused in an
attempt to regulate chemicals, Morrill said.
Firefighters who already face danger in
the pursuit of public safety have high expo-
sure rates and are dying in exponential num-
bers due to the toxic fumes these chemicals
emit when burned, Leno said. These are
aspects to be considered with fire safety pro-
tocol, Leno said.
Banning the use of certain chemicals
should be the work of the Department of
Toxic Substances Control, not the bureaus
fire science division, said John McCormack,
a fire safety consultant for NAFRA and a
retired bureau employee. A consumers
health and the need for fire safety are not
incompatible and McCormack hopes the
hearing on TB 117-2013 will not be a detri-
ment to fire safety.
Still, both Leno and Mascarenas support
the revised standards and hope the public is
better armed to combat the outdated TB 117
for the good of future generations.
Weve put known or potential carcino-
gens in our homes and are exposing our chil-
dren during critical windows of develop-
ment, Mascarenas said.
They point to evidence that shows these
chemicals have been found in breast milk
and in toddlers. The update extends exemp-
tions to include infant mattresses, high
chairs, booster and car seats, strollers, infant
carriers and nursing pillows.
These chemicals are bio-pervasive and
bio-accumulative and considered a global
pollutant with high levels found in marine
life. Fire safety measures that lead to chem-
ical requirements should consider the infil-
tration into soil and water, update propo-
nents said.
Studies have been done that show theses
toxic flame retardants in fact not only dont
protect us from the fire, but are causing great
health and environmental damage, Leno
said.
Leno is hopeful for the revision and
expects the analysis will conclude in
August. He will ask the regulation to be
placed into state law; unable to be dismissed
under future administrations.
But there are lasting effects. Even if TB
117-2013 passes, there is the fact that all of
this furniture is already in our homes and
offices it will be hard to get rid of, Leno
said.
It may be difficult and more expensive to
find furniture without flame-retardant chem-
icals at first; but if TB 117-2013 passes,
manufacturers will quickly change the way
they produce their furniture, Leno said.
And this isnt just an issue in California.
Many manufacturers follow Californias
guidelines nationwide because it doesnt
make sense to produce furniture exclusively
for the state.
Just as the California market exacerbated
the problem with the current TB 117, prolif-
erating these chemicals everywhere, the
opposite will be true with this new regula-
tion, Leno said.
The public hearing concerning TB 117-
2013 will take place 10 a.m. March 26 on
1625 North Market Blvd., in Sacramento.

S
enioritis is a prevalent disease
amongst students in the second
semester of their nal year of high
school. With college apps turned in and the
end of high school in sight, many seniors nd
it difcult to maintain their focus. At my high
school, the administration has tried to combat
this so-called senioritis
with a mandatory semes-
ter-long assignment
called senior projects.
Seniors are given from
January to May to work
on a project of their
choice under the guid-
ance of a member of the
Crystal Springs Uplands
School faculty. Aside from a few check-ins
with mentors and mandatory journal entries,
however, students are almost completely
responsible for sticking to their own timeline
to ensure their project is complete on time.
Although projects are introduced as a way for
students to leave their legacy to the school,
they often have little to do with school.
Topics often range from practicing yoga to
telescope-building and students are allowed
to pursue their individual interests as long as
the project proposal is feasible and well
thought-out. While some slightly duplicitous
seniors in the past have tried to get away with
pretending to learn instruments at which they
were already procient or pass off playing
their favorite video game as a viable project,
most seniors take the projects as an opportu-
nity to learn about something they havent
been taught in school. One student just get-
ting started on a volunteer project is happy to
nally be able to explore their interests
rather than focus only on classroom-based
learning.
While Im just getting started on my proj-
ect, a docudrama Im attempting to write and

NEW YORK After years
of hope, stalled efforts and stu-
dio frustration, Veronica
Mars creator Rob Thomas
watched a long-held dream
come to fruition in a sudden
digital rush.
There were a few minutes of
nothing happening, he says.
Then in an hour, watching that
ticker go was mesmerizing. I had an
attention span of, like, four seconds
because everything on my computer
screen I wanted to look at at the
same time. The Twitter feed was
going crazy, the emails were going
crazy and then watching that
Kickstarter total go up.
Thomas last week launched a
Kickstarter campaign to fund a
movie of his cult TV show, which
was canceled after three seasons in
2007. It met its stated goal of raising
$2 million in less than 11 hours,
meaning it would be greenlit to
begin shooting this summer. Its sur-
passed $3.7 million with more than
two weeks still to go.
The resounding, immediate suc-
cess of the crowd-funding campaign
sent shockwaves through the movie
business. Films had found much-
needed financial support on
Kickstarter before, but Veronica
Mars is different. Its a studio proj-
ect, owned by Warner Bros., which
produced the show.
The money given by the fervent
fans of Veronica Mars, which
starred Kristen Bell as a teenage pri-
vate eye, will go not to a lmmaker
operating on his own, but one with
the distribution and marketing mus-
cle of a very large corporation
just one that hadnt previously been
convinced to bankroll a Veronica
Mars lm.
Were donating fans spurring a
goliath to action, or its unwitting
pawns?
The wide majority of Veronica
Mars fans couldnt care less. They
will get the movie they craved, as
well as the proud feeling of having
played an essential role in the
shows resurrection. Maryland fan
Matt Clipp typied the eager con-
tributors, writing: I am MORE than
happy to donate $100 to this project.
This movie has been a dream of
mine ever since the series ended
back in 2007. ... LETS GET THIS
THING MADE, VERONICA
MARS FANS!
While the emotional side is surely
the biggest motivation for most
donors, theyre also paying for tan-
gible goods. Rewards range from an
emailed copy of the script ($10 con-
tributions), all the way up to a
speaking part in the lm as a waiter
who says, Your check, sir, (a sin-
gle $10,000 donation). All money is
refunded if for any reason the lm
doesnt get made.
Most of the people who are
pledging are getting in at the $35
and $50 range where theyre getting
a download of the movie, a T-shirt, a
copy of the script at $35, and all of
that plus the DVD and the making-
of documentary at the $50 price
point, says Thomas. So I dont
think anyones being taken advan-
tage of. I feel like the rewards are
worth it.
Typically in lm nancing, any
investor has the chance to earn his
money back and potentially share in
the profits. Slate claimed the
Veronica Mars project sets a ter-
rible precedent.
Joss Whedon, whose devoted fan-
boy following is similar, if larger,
than Thomas, said that he reacted in
unfettered joy at the Veronica
Mars Kickstarter campaign.

GARRY WINOGRAND RETROSPEC-
TIVE AT SAN FRANCISCO MUSEUM OF
MODERN ART. The rst major touring exhi-
bition in 25 years of work by artist Garry
Winogrand (1928-1984) photographer of New
York City and of American Life from the 1950s
through the early 1980s brings together
Winogrands most iconic images with newly
printed photographs from the never seen archive
of his later work. The 300 images now on dis-
play at the San Francisco Museum of Modern
Art show every aspect of human life and include
photographs from Winogrands travels around
the United States as well as his better known
New York City images. Exhibition guest curator
Leo Rubinen said, Winogrand was an artistic
descendent of Walker Evans and Robert Frank,
but differed sharply from them. He admired
Franks The Americans, but felt the work
missed the main story of its time, which in his
mind was the emergence of suburban prosperity
and isolation. The hope and buoyancy of mid-
dle-class life in postwar America is half of the
emotional heart of Winogrands work. The other
half is the sense of undoing. The tension
between these qualities gives his work its dis-
tinctive character.
Toward the end of Winogrands life, he spoke
of reviewing and re-editing all of his photo-
graphs, but he was unable to accomplish this
and left behind more that 2,500 rolls of exposed
but underdeveloped lm and an additional 4,100
rolls that he had processed but never seen an
estimated total of 250,000 images that have
remained virtually unknown. SFMOMA
Assistant Curator of Photography Erin OToole
said, One reason that Winogrand is only now
receiving the full retrospective treatment
already devoted to peers of his era, including
Diana Arbus, Lee Friedander and Robert Frank,
is that any truly comprehensive consideration of
his lifes work requires contending with the
practical and ethical issues surrounding the vast
archive he left behind. In the absence of explic-
it instructions from him regarding how he want-
ed his work to be handled after he was gone, its
posthumous treatment has been the subject of
ongoing debate and raises provocative questions
about the creative process and its relationship to
issues specic to the medium. Curator OToole
speaks about the artists work at noon April 2 in
SFMOMAs Phyllis Wattis Theater. Program
admission is free.
The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art is
located at 151 Third St., near the Moscone
Center. A free gallery tour at 1:30 p.m. daily
focuses on this exhibition. A free mobile tour
the uses archival audio of the artist and inter-
views with curators is available daily in the
Haas Atrium with the deposit of a drivers
license or state ID. For more information call

paign against the capricious Greek
deities.
That means more of the brutal combat
for which this franchise is known, with
Kratos wielding his Blades of Chaos,
twin knives attached to his arms with
retractable chains. The game occasionally
drops limited-use weapons, like clubs or
javelins, in your path, but the Blades
which can be tipped with re, ice, light-
ing or the soul of Hades are usually
enough to get the job done.
Most of the melees in Ascension
begin with Kratos suddenly surrounded
by swarms of low-level monsters that can
be easily dispatched. The big lug is sur-
prisingly graceful, and once you get into
a rhythm of attacking, dodging and leap-
ing, the combat is as smooth as ever.
It starts feeling creaky, though, when
you get to the bombastic boss battles.
These typically involve beasts many
times Kratos size, so you just have to
keep hacking away until you soften them
up. Then the action shifts to quick-time
events, in which you have to press but-
tons to match onscreen prompts a
technique that short-circuits your rhythm
and effectively takes control away from
you.
The carnage is occasionally interrupted
by gigantic spaces in which you have to
gure out how to get Kratos to the exit.
Most of these puzzle rooms are fairly
trite, requiring an all-too-familiar formula
of block pushing, switch pulling and wall
climbing, although they get more interest-
ing toward the end after Kratos has found
some magic artifacts.
The story here is the series weakest
yet. Six games in, the creators have pret-
ty much used up all the cool Greek gods
Kratos has already killed Zeus, Ares,
Poseidon, Hades and a few dozen more
so were left with third-stringers like
the Scribe of Hecatonchires. And the
writers dont do themselves any favors by
telling the story of Ascension as a series
of ashbacks and ash-forwards. The
result is an incoherent mess thats proba-
bly more satisfying if you forget about the
plot and just enjoy it as a series of am-
boyant set pieces.
Ascension nally introduces online
action to the franchise, so if youve been
dying to see a bunch of Kratos-like meat-
heads beating on each other, youre in
luck. There are the standard multiplayer
contests deathmatch, capture-the-ag
and a co-op mode in which you ght
waves of increasingly powerful beasts
but theyre livened up by occasional
interference by the gods themselves.
The latest God of War is as gory as
ever. If you dont know the meaning of
visceral, you will after youve disem-
boweled a centaur. And it suffers from a
lack of humor, treating Kratos travails
and torments with an unwarranted degree
of gravity. Theres the occasional
glimpse of camp say, when Kratos
rides a giant snake through a tunnel, but
even then I wasnt sure the designers
realized how ridiculous the story is.
Frankly, the tormented Spartan seems
more exhausted than bloodthirsty, and its
time Sony gave him a rest. Two stars out
of four.

their ideas from the rst day of the
school year in a new class called the
Ideas Fellowship. Ideas Fellows start an
entrepreneurial project during their rst
semester and stick with it through the
rest of the year. Along the way, they
learn how to gain investments, evaluate
others work and also hear from guest
speakers with years of experience as
venture capitalists at startups in the
Silicon Valley and Bay Area. Recently
the co-founder of the popular website
Reddit, Steve Huffman, came and spoke
not only to the Ideas Fellows, but all
other interested students. He urged his
audience of students to take advantage
of the entrepreneurial spirit of the Bay
Area and its surroundings. With expo-
sure to Huffman and independent proj-
ects, second semester senior year has
offered opportunity for more practical
learning than the usual textbooks and
assessments. One CSUS student partic-
ularly values the independence of sen-
ior projects, explaining that the projects
require time management without the
structure of set deadlines and due
dates. Most students also agree that
exploring areas outside of core subjects
taught in high school gives them a
chance to narrow down what they might
want to pursue after graduation.
While senior projects are assigned in
January, most students realistically do
the bulk of the work during May when
they are no longer required to attend
classes. The projects, in past years,
have been successful in keeping seniors
engaged in school in their last months
before graduation without enforcing
strict guidelines especially because
they are graded as pass-fail rather than
by percentages or letter-grades. The
projects and introduction to learning
that isnt based on a lesson plan gives
students the opportunity to get a taste of
their futures, making the projects feel
less like a requirement and more like
valuable preparation for the future. As
one senior puts it, they only wish that
assignments like these projects had
been introduced earlier in their academ-
ic careers to give students an inde-
pendent academic experience that more
accurately mirrors their adult lives.

Official: New York tax

ALBANY, N.Y. If New York isnt trying hard to lure The
Tonight Show back to Manhattan, its doing a pretty good
impression.
A Cuomo administration ofcial said Thursday that New York
is trying to lure TV shows from California with a proposed tax
credit program and the Tonight show would qualify if it
decides to move back to Manhattan. The show moved to
Burbank in 1972 when Johnny Carson was host.
But there is no deal with NBC or the Tonight show, and the
ofcial wouldnt say if the state is trying to attract the show. The
person wasnt authorized to comment on any potential deals and
spoke to the Associated Press on the condition of anonymity.
Still, a bill in Gov. Andrew Cuomos pending budget looks
like its all about Tonight, without ever mentioning the iconic
show that began broadcasting in the 1950s from Manhattan and
has featured a series of popular hosts Jack Parr, Steve Allen,
Carson, and the current Jay Leno.
The bill expected to be voted into law in coming days would
provide a 30 percent tax credit for a relocated television pro-

WEEKEND JOURNAL 23
By Todd McCarthy
LOS ANGELES In a week when North Korea posted a
homemade video showing the U.S. Capitol building being
destroyed by a missile, what more logical response could
Hollywood offer than a macho thriller about a Secret Service
agent who takes on North Korean terrorists who attack the
White House? The rst of two similarly themed action dramas
set for this year (White House Down arrives in June),
Olympus Has Fallen will put to the test the question of
whether American audiences are ready, 12 years after 9-11, to
watch, strictly as disposable popcorn entertainment, a lm in
which the United States and some of its most prominent land-
marks are devastated by foreign terrorists.
The answer almost undoubtedly will be yes, as the tough-
guy former agent played by Gerard Butler gets to kick a whole
lot of badass butt while trying to rescue the president.
Although this is the sort of lm in which the fate of the world
hinges, when all is said and done, on the outcome of a one-on-
one martial arts contest, director Antoine Fuquas notably
bloody child of Die Hard still generates a fair amount of ten-
sion and produces the kind of nationalistic outrage that rock-
ribbed Americans will feel in their guts. Foreign revenue
should be hefty as well, especially in countries where many
viewers will get a thrill watching Washington get the sort of
treatment usually reserved for places like Baghdad and Kabul.
Either due to incredible clairvoyance on the parts of rst-
time screenwriters Creighton Rothenberger and Katrin
Benedikt or just through one of those twists of fate, the lm
arrives just as North Korea has made anti-U.S. saber-rattling
an almost daily exercise. So it seems uncannily timely that the
brilliant bad guy here is a (supposedly) rogue North Korean
who leads a bunch of skilled commandos on a raid of the
White House that nets them the president and several key
members of his staff as hostages. No doubt bootleg copies of
the lm will make their way to Kim Jong Un, who might be
simultaneously offended and delighted at the opportunity to
further rouse his subjects by showing them how much the
enemy hates them.
At its core, however, Olympus is like an 80s or 90s genre
item in which Clint Eastwood, Bruce Willis or Mel Gibson
outwitted and outmuscled shrewd, more formidably armed
opponents. Like Eastwood in In the Line of Fire, Butler
(who also produced) plays a disgraced presidential agent side-
lined and haunted by a uky failure (detailed in a 10-minute
prologue) who suddenly and inadvertently nds himself back
in the thick of a crisis.
Farahnaz Morshedzadeh, Peninsula YMCA staff member and
liaison; and Joyce Hanna, program director and associate
director of Stanford School of Medicines Health
Improvement Program.
The program is funded through YMCA members, staff and
corporate donations, Morshedzadeh said.
Hanna, an exercise physiologist, got the idea after attending
a conference at the Cooper Center in Dallas on physical activ-
ity and cancer. With the encouragement of others, she started
an exercise program for cancer survivors at the Stanford
Health Improvement program, she said.
We have now had 1,700 participants come throughout pro-
gram, Hanna wrote in an email.
At that point, there were few exercise programs for cancer
survivors because people thought cancer survivors should just
rest not exercise, Hanna said.
Previously, people in the health eld ... felt that since can-
cer wore down the immune system, exercise would wear it
down even more. They also questioned why you would exer-
cise someone who was already fatigued. Wouldnt that make
them even more fatigued? Hanna said. But this was kind of
a myth. Now research suggests that moderate exercise, not rest
with some exceptions, of course is just what cancer
patients need.
On the rst day of the program, participants come and get to
know each other and share their experiences with cancer and
then the staff show them the facility, Morshedzadeh said.
One group in particular formed a tight-knit bond after the 12
weeks and now attends regular classes together Linda
Ferrando, Brad Friedman, Mary Spont and Judy LaRoisa.
On several days, Ferrando nds it difcult to get into her car,
drive to the YMCA and attend classes. One of the reasons she
goes is because she texts Friedman to check in on whether he
will go to class, along with Stont and LaRoisa.
I started the program after being in bed for almost a year, I
had Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma stage IV, so it was in my bones
mainly bilateral hips, so I could barely walk, Ferrando
said.
After suffering a back injury when she was rst participat-
ing in the program to recover from cancer in her hip, Ferrando
came back to Living Strong Living Well later and regained her
strength.
She said she felt like a different person than she was in the
program last year.
When we rst started and I started riding the (stationary)
bike, it wouldnt register because I was riding so slow, because
my hips were recovering (from cancer) and then by the end of
the (program) I could do three miles, Ferrando said.
One of the things with cancer is that when you have it, you
really dont have control over your body ... its kind of crazy
but, with exercise and by coming here, I felt I was gaining con-
trol back, LaRoisa said.
The intention of the program is to help patients increase
muscle mass, strength, exibility, endurance and functional
ability; eventually assisting participants in developing their
own physical tness program so they can continue to practice
their preferred lifestyle.
On the third to fourth visit ... we do a tness check to see
where the baseline is and after that we show them the cardio
machines (and) get them to do a weight routine. ... In their last
15 minutes, we get together and stretch, Morshedzadeh said.
They have a full membership to the YMCA and can come at
any other time during the 12 weeks and afterwards they have
one month of free membership after the program ends.
Friedman said he was diagnosed with a brain tumor in his
sarabellum and the radiation treatment he received has hin-
dered his ability to create structure and organization.
This program gave me exactly (what I wanted): it gave a
me schedule, it gave me a structure and community ... which
maintained and increased my health, Friedman said. (The
YMCA is) sort of like having the catchers mitt and saying
Well catch that ball and take on that role.
Mary Spont had breast cancer and was encouraged to learn
more about Living Strong Living Well through her doctor.
(The program) has just been a lifesaver ... it just makes you
feel more positive, Spont said.
The patients in the program have formed a camaraderie
through their shared experiences and the humor they nd after
recovering from cancer. Living Strong Living Well is enabling
to its participants because it helps mitigate the fatigue felt
from cancer and cancer treatment through exercise, Friedman
said.
Its night and day for me ... on my own I do pretty much
nothing, Friedman said, but here Im not on my own at all.

love. His long hair needs to be cared for often;
brushed daily or every other day. Its easy to
see the mess that could come from not keep-
ing up with the brushing the little ones hair as
he sat on Rachel Spanglers lap Wednesday
afternoon. Spangler, who lives in Belmont,
adopted Pip earlier this month. The journey
for Pip was a long one.
Pip was found off the side of State Route 92
near the San Mateo-Hayward Bridge late last
year. His long hair was quite matted when a
passerby stopped, picked up the bunny and
dropped it off in the after-hours area with a
note, said PHS/SPCA spokesman Scott
Delucchi.
Little did Pip know, a good home was just a
short distance away.
Spangler and her boyfriend got their rst
rabbit, Benny about six years ago. Benny
needed a friend, which is why they got Marie.
Spangler used to buy pellets for the rabbits at
the Half Moon Bay Feed and Fuel where
someone had dropped off a black rabbit. It was
the rst rescue the couple took in and then
named Buddy. Buddy had a friend too, a res-
cue rabbit named Calyx, who unfortunately
passed away. It was for that reason that
Spangler took public transportation to the
Peninsula Humane Society and SPCA for a
recent bunny event. She needed a new friend
for Buddy.
Spangler had another request a long-
haired bunny. Fur from an angora bunny can
be spun and used in knitting a hobby
Spangler recently took up. Pip was adopted
shortly after Spangler shared her story with
the PHS/SPCA staff. Now Pip is getting
accustomed to his new apartment surround-
ings and regular brushings.
Pips story showcases the responsibility of
pet ownership. Around Easter, theres often a
spike in adoptions of bunnies.
If people have done their homework or if
they are willing to allow our counselors to
explain responsible rabbit ownership, we
would love to have as many people as possible
leave our shelter with a bunny, said
PHS/SPCA Customer Service Director Dan
Hanley. For those people fully prepared, we
want them to know they can save a life and
adopt a rabbit they dont need to buy one.
PHS/SPCA currently has close to two dozen
rabbits available for adoption, including a
variety of sizes, colors and types. But
PHS/SPCA also educates people to avoid
impulse adoptions that too often end up in the
rabbits being brought back to the shelter a few
months later once the novelty has worn off.
The two biggest misconceptions the shelter
staff reports about rabbits involve their com-
patibility with young children and their hous-
ing. The delicate companion animals require
gentle handling and thrive when they receive
as much attention as dogs, according to
PHS/SPCA.
Rabbits should never be conned to our out-
door hutch, where they are susceptible to
extreme temperatures and to local wildlife,
like raccoons. Instead, bunnies should have
caging inside the home and daily exercise and
socialization time outside of their cage.
Education and outreach efforts from the
shelter, rescue groups and online has resulted
in a drop in neglected rabbits.
In 1990, PHS/SPCA received 750 stray or
owner-surrendered rabbits, and euthanized 80
percent. Over the past two years, the shelter
has averaged 164 incoming rabbits (132 in
2011 and 197 in 2012) per year and did not
euthanize any healthy rabbits, Delucchi said.
To help with the issues, PHS/SPCA makes
arrangements to spay or neuter all adopted
rabbits. A mature rabbit can have up to nine
babies every month. When well cared for, rab-
bits can live eight to 10 years. Many people
like to adopt pairs of rabbits so they have com-
panionship.
Those interested in adopting a bunny can
call 340-7022, ext. 700 or visit www.phs-
spca.org. Adoption hours are 11 a.m. to 7
p.m., Monday through Friday and 11 a.m. to 6
p.m. on the weekends. PHS/SPCA is closed
Easter Sunday.
RABBIT
Mayor Bob Grassilli said the urgency ordi-
nance will add an additional layer of input for
the city to nd the best use for the space.
Grassilli recognizes that the free market dic-
tates what will ultimately go into the space.
However, by adding an extra step, the council
will have the chance to be sure the best plan
moves forward.
Under the proposed urgency ordinance, any
new use or change of a use that is different
from what exists at a location now would
require a conditional use permit. Applying for
a permit requires a public hearing before the
Planning Commission which would assess the
merits of the new use, according to a staff
report. The ve parcels located at the south
corner of Holly Street, Industrial Road and the
Highway 101 ramp is known as the Landmark
Hotel Site in the general plan, which includes
plans for securing a hotel for the space,
according to the staff report.
Recently, a developer approached the city
expressing an intention to purchase three of
those ve parcels on which a large tness cen-
ter would be built. Such a use, according to the
staff report, would diminish the opportunity
for a future hotel and would generate little to
no retail sales tax for the city. However, cur-
rent zoning would allow for such a use with-
out additional city review.
Community Development Director Al
Savay said the urgency ordinance would allow
the city to study uses in that industrial area and
reevaluate the rules. Savay said that while the
ordinance could be extended, the hope is to
nish the evaluation quickly.
The council meets 7 p.m. Monday, March 25
at City Hall, 600 Elm St.
