between district and union
By Angela Swartz
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Fitting with the trend along the Peninsula this year, South
San Francisco Unied School District teachers are also see-
ing a pay raise with the improved economy.
The district recently reached a tentative agreement with
the South San Francisco Classroom Teachers Association,
allowing for a 5 percent salary increase for teachers.
Additionally, teachers received a 4 percent increase for
fringe benets, primarily health care premiums, for a two-
year period. Last school year, teachers received a 1 percent
pay increase, the rst since 2009.

Burlingame city ofcials are still trying
to nail down plans for a new community
center to replace its current aged facility in
Washington Park, but funding is still up in
the air for the project.
A two-story 35,500-square-foot building
located at the same location is the front-run-
ner. At this time, there is no funding allo-
cated for the project, so
securing money for con-
struction would also be
part of the process. The
Citizens Advisory
Committee, or CAC, met
Feb. 12 and helped identi-
fy both the preferred proj-
ect and site option based
on community input
gathered at the Fresh
Market, from the Recreation Center display
and from the online survey. The current
structure is 25,000 square feet.
Our goal was to get as much input as pos-
sible, said Parks and Recreation Director
Margaret Glomstad. This is a conceptual
design and theres no funding.
Some believe that a retrot should be con-
sidered before going for a full-blown demo-
lition and rebuild, noting a retrot would be
cheaper.
I know were not here to talk about fund-
ing, said Planning Commissioner Jeff
DeMartini at a Monday night meeting.
Often we (the Planning Commission) see
projects we dont necessarily love. I was
hoping to see retrotting as an option. At
some point were going to come up with an
option. Its a nice building; I use it fairly
often with my family.

Funding still a key next stepfor building new Burlingame facility in Washington Park

When Dawn Beavis began working
as a Peninsula Humane Societys adop-
tion counselor seven years ago, she
said she wasnt particularly found of
cats. But after fostering nearly 400
critical care kittens, shes now a full-
blown feline fanatic.
I just started taking the little sick
ones that everybody else had a hard
time taking care of because of these
small percentage chances of success.
So I just kind of morphed to be the per-
son who ended up taking these little
challenging guys, Beavis said. I

ASan Mateo County residential treatment
program serving women has merged with a
state nonprofit recovery network which
both groups say will help the 50-year-old
association survive and grow.
The Womens Recovery Association,
which runs four residential facilities provid-
ing health care, therapy and outpatient care,
merged with HealthRIGHT 360, the groups
announced this week.
WRA will now operate under the name
Womens Recovery Association, a pro-
gram of HealthRIGHT 360, and Executive
Director Carolyn Rapier will continue as the
managing director of San Mateo County
programs.
Rapier was not available for comment on
the new partnerships but said in a prepared
statement that it feels absolutely right for
WRA to join a larger family providing
behavior health services.
WRAnow has the potential to thrive and
grow in new ways while preserving the
commitment to quality treatment that began
50 years ago, Rapier said.
Dr. Vitka Eisen, CEO of HealthRIGHT
360, said WRA was at a strategic cross-
roads and needed to make some decisions
about its growth, particularly with the
advent of expensive health mandates like
electronic health records.
Health care reform is great but it poses
challenges to smaller organizations and
together all of us are stronger, Eisen said.
Eisen said the WRA board approached
HealthRIGHT360 about a potential arrange-
ment.
Sister Anna Marie Towers founded WRAi n
1964 with a focus on women dealing with
alcoholism and by 1970 was incorporated
with an outpatient center following two
years later. Residential programming start-
ed in 1973, growing to the four private
homes for women and women with children.
Dr. Tom Hofstedt, chair of the WRAboard
and member of the newly merged organiza-
tion, said both share compelling histories,
passion for transformation and highly com-
mitted leadership.
HealthRIGHT 360 began in 2011 with the
merger of San Francisco organizations
Haight Ashbury Free Clinics and Walden
House. Asian American Recovery Services,
which operates in San Mateo County, joined
in 2013 and North County Serenity House
early this year expanded HealthRIGHT 360
into the San Diego area.
Clients and those who work with WRA
will see little change, Eisen said.
It should be pretty seamless, she said.

Capsized boat off Pescadero
may have been used for smuggling
Drug smugglers or human traffickers
may have abandoned a capsized boat found
off the coast of Pescadero in San Mateo
County on Monday, U.S. Coast Guard offi-
cials said Tuesday.
The Coast Guard was notified of the cap-
sized vessel at about 11 a.m. Monday near
Pigeon Cove and rescue crews were dis-
patched to find anyone possibly in dis-
tress.
No one was located after a search by air
and sea. Law enforcement officials con-
cluded that smugglers could have been
using the boat, according to the Coast
Guard.
The 18- to 20-foot boat is similar to a
panga, an open-hull fishing vessel capa-
ble of rapid travel in the open seas that is
commonly used by smugglers, according
to the Coast Guard.
The Coast Guard said that Mexican
smugglers have recently been traveling
farther up the California Coast to avoid
patrols.
This smuggling activity helps fund
violent international criminal organiza-
tions, Coast Guard Sector San Francisco
commander Capt. Greg Stump said in a
statement. Were asking the public to
help us stop smuggling by reporting any
suspicious activity.
Veteran who robbed
bank gets year in jail
A veteran who robbed a Redwood City
bank in January was sen-
tenced Tuesday to a year
in county jail and three
years probation, accord-
ing to San Mateo County
District Attorney Steve
Wagstaffe.
Douglas Mitchell
Taylor, 55, entered a
Wells Fargo bank on
Broadway in Redwood
City on Jan. 10 and handed the teller a
note indicating someone had abducted his
daughter and he needed money to pay the
ransom, Wagstaffe said.
The teller filled Taylors bag with
$5,600 in cash while triggering a silent
alarm, Wagstaffe said.
Police were waiting for Taylor by the
time he left the bank and arrested him, the
district attorney said.
Taylor, a Boulder Creek resident, was an
unemployed former teacher and electrician
living in his RVat the time of the robbery,
Wagstaffe said.
Taylor pleaded no contest to second-
degree robbery on March 17. He has credit
for 192 days served of his one-year jail
sentence, Wagstaffe said.
He will also have to pay restitution in an
amount yet to be determined, Wagstaffe
said. His case has been referred to Veterans
Treatment Court, which helps connect vet-
erans in the criminal justice system with
services through the U.S. Department of
Veterans Affairs.

Staying on top of technology, verifying
candidate credentials and better communi-
cating with the public about property
assessments are some of the issues at hand
for the two candidates for county chief elec-
tions office and assessor-county clerk-
recorder.
Incumbent Mark Church is running for re-
election and challenged by John Mooney
who ran as a write-in four years ago but is
on the ballot this go around.
Church and Mooney sat down with the
Daily Journal for an in-ofce interview and
also provided answers to the following ve
questions to allow each candidate a forum
for sharing their own words prior to the
June 3 election. Each was asked to keep the
answers to approximately 50 words and
were only edited for grammar or length.
1. How can the ofce improve cl ear
communi cat i on wi t h t he publ i c
about matters like changes to tax
rates and property assessments?
Church: Our department provides clear
information through: an excellent website
and social media communications; our rst
Assessors Annual Report; customer service
approximately 4,000 telephone calls,
2,000 visitors and countless mailings each
month. To further improve communica-
tions, improvements to our website, new
mobile applications and a Voice-over IP
phone system will be implemented.
Mooney: When we write instructions,
we have to be careful that the different cul-
tures interpret the words the way we intend-
ed the words to be interpreted. It is impor-
tant that we use the newspapers, Internet,
Web pages and our mail-out to get the word
out on what the taxes are and why.
2. Shoul d t he El ect i ons Off i c e
change how it does or does not veri-
fy the credenti al s of candi dates?
Why or why not?
Churc h: After careful review of their
long-standing policy, I have determined
that the policy should be changed.
Accordingly, I have implemented a new pol-
icy requiring: (1) candidates to submit docu-
mentation showing that they have satised
the statutory requirements; and (2) the elec-
tions ling ofcer to make a determination
based on the submitted documentation.
Mooney: We should do a better job of
verifying the credentials of a candidate.
There have been people who claim they are
living in a district or a city but in reality do
not. Also, there have been people running
for ofce who were not qualied to run for
that office. A good example of this is
President Barack Obama.
3. In 2013, the El ecti ons Ofc e
found dozens of provi s i onal bal l ot s
after the el ecti on. How can the ofc e
improve i ts procedures to prevent
oversi ght s?
Church: The misplacing of ballots is
unacceptable. Existing procedures were
reviewed and many were amended to
improve operations. Appropriate corrective
action included revising our: voting center
procedures guide, vote-by -mail procedures,
ballot reconciliation procedures, inner-
vault procedures, courier plan. Operations
and procedures can further be improved
through the on-going training and develop-
ment of staff.
Mooney: The solution is better training
for everyone and make sure that there are
two persons at all times keeping track of all
ballots that they are responsible for until
they are relieved by the next team responsi-
ble for protecting the ballots until the bal-
lots are properly processed by the election
ofcial according to the proper procedure
for that ballot.
4 . The ofce has a hi story of bei ng
t ech savvy. How have you or wi l l
you continue to stay ahead in this
regard?
Church: Technology initiatives imple-
mented during my term include: increased
storage capacity Virtual Environment;
improved cyber-security; electronic docu-
ment management system
upgrades; electronic sample
ballots; electronic record-
ing. The selection and
retention of technical staff
along with the purchase of
leading-edge technology
will continue to be key to
our success.
Mooney: We should dili-
gently clean up the voter roster to prevent
fraud. We should push for laws mandating
voters show identication. We want every
voter entitled to vote to vote but no dead
folks voting. They had their chance when
they were alive. We should stay abreast of
all computer voting improvements and
when cost-effective implement new proce-
dures.
5. If you are el ected, how wi l l the
o fce change or remain the same?
Church: The most valuable resources of
our organization are its people and technol-
ogy. I will continue to promote positive
labor-management relations and engage
employees at every level of the organiza-
tion. I will also continue to adhere to best
management practices and utilize the best
technology available to maximize efcien-
cies and productivity.
Mooney: My management philosophy
is that of a coach. Make sure your staff gets
the proper tools to do the job in a cost-
effective manner. Treat each employee like
an expert in their eld. I will check to see if
they have any problems and what I can do to
help them. My management philosophy is
about evolution, not revolution.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO Raymond Shrimp
Boy Chow, a central figure in a sweeping
San Francisco organized crime and public
corruption case, pleaded not guilty Tuesday
to money laundering and other charges
related to the investigation.
Defense attorney Greg Bentley entered
the plea for Chow, who remains in custody
and appeared in court in jail clothing.
Prosecutors say he is the leader of a notori-
ous gang based in Chinatown.
Chow has been charged with eight
counts of money launder-
ing, one count of con-
spiracy to sell stolen
liquor, and one count of
trafficking in illegal cig-
arettes
Bentley says Chow is
an innocent community
organizer wrongly
caught up in a politically
charged investigation
that also led to charges
last month against state
Sen. Leland Yee.
Yee is accused of trading political influ-
ence for campaign contributions and
attempting to connect an
undercover FBI agent
with an arms dealer in
exchange for cash. Yee
has pleaded not guilty.
On Monday, a nonprof-
it news organization
posted two video clips of
Yee discussing campaign
finance and open gov-
ernment.
In the Dec, 2 interview
with the Voice of Orange County, Yee said
lawmakers give in to temptation because
of a feeling of entitlement.
Yee was running for California secretary
of state at the time but dropped out of that
race after his March 26 arrest.
Voice managing editor David Washburn
said the news organization didnt believe
the 40-minute interview to be newsworthy
until after Yees arrest.
It then took some discussion and time to
edit the interview into two short clips of a
little more than one minute each, he said.
Yee also decried the influence money
plays in politics and called for public
financing of campaigns.
Weve got to bite the bullet and take
money out of it, Yee said. Because
money just simply corrupts, money just
simply corrupts.

by the National Scholastic Press
Association during the Spring 2014
National High School Journalism
Convention in San Diego.
Started in 2010, the online multimedia
site is part of the journalism courses cur-
riculum, said Justin Raisner, Carlmont
English and journalism teacher. This is the
rst national award the department has won
and students are taking home more than the
title, Raisner said.
Its signicant for a lot of reasons. One
is the recognition of what we do and just the
afrmation that we are doing it right; but
not only are we doing it right, but were
doing it as well as, or better than, anyone
else in the country. For high school stu-
dents, this is really exciting because a lot
want to pursue media or journalism in col-
lege. So were hoping this will open a lot
of doors that some students might get
recruited from colleges and maybe get some
scholarships, Raisner said.
Scot Scoop publishes new content daily
and receives more than 6,000 unique visi-
tors each month, Raisner said. Whats even
more impressive is the quality of work
thats produced through this project-based
learning environment, Raisner said.
Students are assigned a beat, such as
focusing on school clubs
or sports, then propose
and write their self-initi-
ated stories, which two
student co-editors in
chief are responsible for
reading and revising,
Raisner said.
This year, senior Sarah
Klieves and junior Shira
Stein joined to serve as
editors of the award-winning publication.
You denitely have a lot of pride know-
ing that it was all the hard work combined
that you put in and of course [we] have great
staff behind us. Theyre really doing the
work with all of the content. Were just
there making it all come together. Its real-
ly a team effort and its just cool to know
everyones working together, Klieves
said.
Carlmonts journalism program also
includes the monthly newspaper The
Highlander. Students from both lower divi-
sion courses write for both the newspaper
and publish online content while the upper
division class primarily focuses on print,
Raisner said.
This year, students reviewed previous
Pacemaker competitors and updated the
Scot Scoop site to push it into the winners
circle, Klieves said.
I think we looked at a lot of designs
from past winners and we gured out what
our site needed to have to improve from last
year. And we added a lot
of stuff like feature sto-
ries as well as adding a
podcast center and incor-
porating tweets on our
home page. So we did, I
think, just freshen it up,
Klieves said.
Stein said she agreed
keeping with trends by
adding multimedia such
as info-graphics and videos helped Scot
Scoop stand out.
Having the entire team recognized for
their outstanding efforts was both emotion-
al and thrilling for her and Klieves, Stein
said.
It was probably one of the biggest
accomplishments of my high school
career, Stein said. It was really, really
exciting because this could potentially just
change a lot of peoples future.
Shes been a journalism buff since her
freshman year and plans on at least minor-
ing in the subject when she ventures to col-
lege, Stein said. Raisner was her advisor
early on and shes thankful he persuaded her
to take his courses, Stein said.
I enjoy getting to tell the story of some-
one who didnt get to [have their story] be
told before, Stein said. To spread info to
our student body, to provide a broader per-
spective of knowledge as well.
Klieves said shes motivated as a writer
for similar reasons and plans to take her
Scot Scoop lessons to California
Polytechnic State University in San Luis
Obispo when she studies journalism next
year.
Ive always loved to read and write and I
just think something about it was so excit-
ing. To be part of a team that lets people
know about things that are going on I
just kind of fell in love with it, Klieves
said. I think it was a lot of hands-on expe-
rience as well as just life lessons in general
on how to deal with people. You got to
work on your people skills and thats just
really benecial to anyone in life.
Raisner is condent that the hard work
students invested into Scot Scoop earned
them more than a Pacemaker Award.
Its a real world environment, the way
the class is taught, and the way this works,
they learn a tremendous amount of respon-
sibility for themselves and [when] working
with others. They really learn they cant
take short cuts; they have to do the work to
create a high quality thing. The amount of
research the students put into each article is
tremendous. The challenge of going out and
talking to people and talking to people in a
situation where it might be uncomfortable,
but challenging, but to really nd ways to
tell the whole story, Raisner said. So its
learning to be a responsible human being
and actually be ready to work in a profes-
sional environment.

HONOR
The city has said the current building is
not seismically sound. It is looking at a
variety of options, including three possible
locations for a new building, all of which
would still be east of the Burlingame Avenue
Caltrain Station on the residential stretch of
Burlingame Avenue. Renovation was con-
sidered as an option, said Burlingame Parks
and Recreation Commissioner Donna
Colson.
Ive been working with our amazing con-
sultants on the committee and there was a
renovation discussion, Colson said. There
were a number of reasons we decided not to
waste a lot of money of the consulting fees.
We felt it was very costly to make a lot of
these modications in the building. The sen-
timent from public was if were going to do
it, lets do this really well and lets not try to
cut corners.
Resident and former recreation center
employee of 25 years Karen Allen agreed
with Colson.
This is like my second home, she told
the Planning Commission. I was there dur-
ing the earthquake and it took $30,000 to x
the front wall. Those days are gone its
going to be more. This [project] is great.
Please pass it.
Plans for a new center are being carefully
thought out and not rushed, architect Dawn
Merkes, the principal for Group 4, said.
Back in January 2013, the Parks and
Recreation Department began work with
Group 4 Architects on a master design plan
for the community center. Aproject manage-
ment team formed out of city staff and the
architectural team, as well as a community
advisory committee composed of leaders and
community stakeholders. There were focus
group meetings with seniors; the Lions
Club; teens; neighbors; families with pre-
school-aged children; and school-aged par-
ents, parent teacher associations and teach-
ers. Pictorial kiosks with information and
surveys were provided at events throughout
the summer and at the Fresh Market. The city
has looked at adding small group meeting
rooms, improved storage, two additional
classrooms, a catering kitchen, multi-gener-
ational activity rooms, a 500-square-foot
larger multi-purpose room with a raised plat-
form and other features.
The Planning Commission also looked at
the layout of a new community center in
terms of the type and location of parking,
along with whether to include underground
parking, the placement of the building, play
areas and other facilities. The city would
have to provide 143 parking spaces for both
Washington Park and the new community
center per the Institute of Transportation
Engineers parking rate of 3.2 cars per 1,000
square feet of building area. The city is look-
ing into providing a combination of surface
and underground parking to meet minimum
parking requirements and, if funding is
available, create parking under the tennis
courts to minimize surface parking within
the park and utilize off-site parking strate-
gies for large events and peak use.
Im excited because to have a community
center thats a landmark building is going to
be a benefit to the community, said
Planning Commissioner Jeanne Davis.
Parking should be secondary.
Concern about the potential for a new
landmark building was expressed by
Jennifer Pfaff, president of the Burlingame
Historical Society.
I want it to be subtle, she said. I always
have agreed I want it to be along the street. I
think the options all have redeeming quali-
ties.
In response, Davis claried saying she
doesnt want a huge building, just some-
thing of signicance that looks iconic.
Other needs for the building include func-
tional improvements and getting the struc-
ture up to American with Disabilities Act
standards. Merkes said some site goals
include a better building and site relation-
ship, connecting the center to the park; safe
and convenient access by car, pedestrian or
bike; visibility from downtown and the
Caltrain station; complementing the resi-
dential neighborhood, especially when it
comes to existing and proposed community
uses; minimizing the trafc and parking
impact to the surrounding neighborhood;
easy access to and from outdoor activity
areas; and providing improved safety for the
playground.
Meanwhile, Lions Club treasurer Glen
Mendelson agreed with the Planning
Commission, stating that the basketball
and tennis courts shouldnt be next to each
other.
Still, commissioners like Nirmala
Bandrapalli were excited about the project.
We dont want to limit ourselves and say
we dont have the money, she said. I
think of 20 years in the future.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON A high-tech screening
tool for cervical cancer is facing pushback
from more than a dozen patient groups, who
warn that the genetic test could displace a
simpler, cheaper and more established main-
stay of womens health: the Pap smear.
The new test from Roche uses DNA t o
detect the human papillomavirus, or HPV,
which causes nearly all cases of cervical
cancer. While such technology has been
available for years, Roche now wants the
FDA to approve its test as a rst-choice
option for cervical cancer screening,
bypassing the decades-old Pap test.
But a number of womens groups
including the American Medical Womens
Association and Our Bodies Ourselves
warn that moving to a DNA-based testing
model would be a radical shift in medical
practice that could lead to confusion, higher
costs and overtreatment.
It replaces a safe and effective well-estab-
lished screening tool and regimen that has
prevented cervical cancer successfully in the
U.S. with a new tool and regimen not
proven to work in a large U.S. population,
state the groups in a letter to FDA
Commissioner Dr. Margaret Hamburg. The
letter, dated Monday, is signed by 17 patient
advocacy groups, including Consumers
Union, the Cancer Prevention and Treatment
Fund and the National Alliance for Hispanic
Health.
Chief among the advocates concerns is
that HPV-only testing could lead to
overtreatment of younger women who carry
the virus but have little risk of developing
actual cancer. Most sexually active young
people will contract HPV, though their bod-
ies usually eliminate the virus within a few
months. Only years-long infections devel-
op into cancer.
Unfortunately the HPVtest by itself isnt
very useful because so many young women
have HPV that will disappear without any
treatment, said Diana Zuckerman of the
Cancer Prevention and Treatment Fund.
Having an HPV test without also getting a
Pap smear to check for problems is going to
scare a lot of women who are not developing
cervical cancer.
Immigration activists
urge Obama to act boldly
WASHINGTON Latinos and immigra-
tion activists are warning of political peril
for President Barack Obama and Democrats
in the fall election unless the president
acts boldly and soon to curb deportations
and allow more immigrants to remain
legally in the U.S.
Many activists say Obama has been slow
to grasp the emotions building within the
Latino community as deportations near the
2 million mark for his administration and
hopes for immigration legislation fade.
With House Republicans unlikely to act on
an overhaul, executive action by Obama is
increasingly the activists only hope.
There is tremendous anger among core
constituencies of the president and the
Latino and Asian communities in particu-
lar, said Deepak Bhargava, executive
director of the Center for Community
Change, which champions immigration
change. He has a momentous choice to
make.
New York police disband
unit that spied on Muslims
NEWYORK Aspecial New York Police
Department unit that sparked controversy
by tracking the daily lives of Muslims in
an effort to detect terror threats has been
disbanded, police officials said Tuesday.
NYPD spokesman Stephen Davis con-
firmed that detectives assigned to the unit
had been transferred to other duties within
the departments Intelligence Division.
An ongoing review of the division by
new Police Commissioner William
Bratton found that the same information
collected by the unit could be better col-
lected through direct contact with commu-
nity groups, officials said.
In a statement, Mayor Bill de Blasio, a
Democrat, called the move a critical step
forward in easing tensions between the
police and the communities they serve, so
that our cops and our citizens can help one
another go after the real bad guys.
DNA alternative to Pap smear sparks medical debate
For decades, the Pap test was the only screening option for cervical cancer and its had a
remarkably successful track record.The number of cervical cancer cases reported in the United
States has decreased more than 50 percent in the past 30 years,primarily due to increased Pap
screening.

Judge blocks
Massachusetts ban on painkiller
BOSTON A federal judge has blocked
Massachusetts from banning the powerful
new painkiller Zohydro.
U.S. District Court Judge Rya Zobel on
Tuesday issued a preliminary injunction after
the maker of the drug, Zogenix, argued in a
lawsuit that the ban ordered by Gov. Deval
Patrick last month is unconstitutional.
Zobel said in issuing the injunction that
Massachusetts appears to have overstepped
its authority in banning the prescription
medication, which had been approved by the
federal Food and Drug Administration, and
that Zogenix was likely to succeed in its pur-
suit of a court order to lift the ban perma-
nently.
The San Diego-based drugmaker hailed the
ruling, saying that allowing states to essen-
tially overturn decisions of the FDA would
set an alarming precedent.
The ban is believed to be the rst attempt
by a state to block a federally approved drug,
according to the National Alliance for Model
State Drug Laws.
New L.A. newspaper

LOS ANGELES Aaron Kushner believes
he can launch and grow a print newspaper in
a world gone digital.
The former greeting card executive is try-
ing to turn the Orange County Register into
a media giant in southern California, largely
driven by paper and ink. The unconvention-
al effort gets a jolt Wednesday when Freedom
Communications Inc., the company
Kushner bought with other investors two
years ago, launches the Los Angeles
Register.
The daily newspaper will be available at
5,500 locations around L.A. at many
newsstands and vending boxes where the
132-year-old Los Angeles Times is found.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
VIENNA The United Nations will
release a report this week certifying that
Irans ability to make a nuclear bomb has
been greatly reduced because it has diluted
half of its material that can be turned most
quickly into weapons-grade uranium,
diplomats said Tuesday.
The move is part of Irans commitments
under a deal with six world powers in effect
since January that mandates some nuclear
concessions on the part of Tehran in
exchange for a partial lifting of sanctions
crippling its economy.
A key concern for the six was Irans
stockpile of 20-percent enriched uranium,
which is only a technical step away from
the 90-percent grade used to arm nuclear
weapons. By late last year, Iran had
already amassed almost enough of the 20-
percent grade for one nuclear bomb, with
further enrichment.
Under the agreement, Iran agreed to halt
its 20-percent enrichment program and to
turn half of its nearly 200-kilogram (440-
pound) stockpile into oxide for reactor
fuel. As well, it pledged to dilute the other
half into low-enriched uranium.
Making weapons-grade uranium by
reconverting from oxide or from the lower
level would take much longer than doing
so from the 20-percent enriched material,
giving more time for the international
community to react. Iran says it is not
interested in nuclear weapons but is nego-
tiating because it wants an end to all sanc-
t i ons.
The U.N. nuclear agency is due this
week to report on Irans adherence to the
deal and two diplomats told the
Associated Press that it would say that
Iran has fulfilled its dilution commit-
ment while continuing the process of
conversion into oxide.
Iran has until June to fulfill all of its
commitments under the deal. But it has to
show progress in exchange for sanctions
relief, and one of the diplomats said it
apparently decided to complete dilution
now because it was eager to get its hand on
the next tranche of some $4.2 billion of
oil revenue funds frozen under internation-
al sanctions meant to force it into nuclear
compromise.
The two are familiar with Irans adher-
ence to its commitments. They demanded
anonymity because they were not author-
ized to discuss the confidential
International Atomic Energy Agency
report, due for release Wednesday or
Thursday.
The November agreement between Iran
and the six the United States, Russia,
China, Britain, France and Germany is
meant to lead into a comprehensive deal
placing long-term caps on Irans enrich-
ment program and other atomic activities
in exchange for full sanctions relief. The
informal deadline for that pact is July but
that can be extended with the agreement of
both sides.

Burlingame Avenue trees
Editor,
Is it too late to rip out the Zelkovas
used so dominantly in the Burlingame
Avenue street remodel? Before hard-
pressed taxpayers respond in revul-
sion at the idea, they should consider
that the cost of reinstallation at this
point is a one-time expense. As it is,
the people of Burlingame will be pay-
ing to water, prune and sweep leaves
for these eyesores for decades to
come. Why not spend that money on
trees that would truly beautify our
town?
And while were at it, lets clean up
the coffee stains on (what were) those
new pretty sidewalks.

This art deserves to be ignored
Editor,
Mr. Emanuel (letter to the editor
Ignore this Art in the April 14 edi-
tion of the Daily Journal) commented
on the lack of respect paid to the art
piece in a downtown San Carlos park.
It is easy to see why this piece is con-
stantly disrespected; it is because it is
worthy of it. This particular piece is
so pandering and vapid that I cringe
whenever a visitor to my wonderful
city sees it. I dont know what to say
when they giggle. When it was
unveiled a few years ago, everyone
kept asking how on Earth such an
embarrassing piece was approved for
display, let alone publicly funded!
The Bay Area (and even San Carlos) is
home to such a wealth of accom-
plished artists and artisans that it is
hard to understand how we managed to
come up with such a juvenile, one-
dimensional, undignied and unsuit-
able piece. It is playground art and I
vote that it be sent to the Museum of
Bad Art in Boston. Until then, it
deserves everything it gets.
Someone please take it down. As
Oscar Wilde said, Bad art is a great
deal worse than no art at all.

Jack Hickey needs
to make the first move
Editor,
During the last four years or so,
Ive read in the Daily Journal how
Jack Hickey wants to dissolve the
Sequoia Healthcare District, yet after
all these years nothing has happened.
He has had plenty of time to start the
ball rolling. He has had time to con-
tact the appropriate state ofcials
about the required manner to dissolve
a state chartered special district. He
has had plenty of time to hire an
attorney who specializes in state con-
stitutional laws and charters, to deter-
mine even if there is sufcient legal
grounds for such a dissolution. He has
had plenty of time to organize neigh-
borhood meetings educating the dis-
trict residents and starting a petition.
But no, none of this has been done.
Im beginning to think that Hickey,
who campaigned on a platform of dis-
solving the district, just used that
ploy to get elected to the position of
board member.
If such a dissolution is warranted,
then the next step would be to deter-
mine whether the dissolution is
achieved by a state legislative act, a
petition, a class-action lawsuit or a
combination of the three choices.
Meanwhile, Hickey is enjoying all
the compensation and benet s,
including free health care, as a mem-
ber of the Board of Directors of the
Sequoia Healthcare District.
Maybe Im wrong about this whole
thing. Maybe Hickey is just another
local elected ofcial who simply
doesnt intend on keeping his cam-
paign promises? Oh well.

Letters to the editor
T
he ofce of San Mateo County
chief elections ofcer and
assessor-county clerk-recorder
is a highly technical one with many
moving parts. Its most noticeable
component is that of elections. While
elections are not an everyday occur-
rence, they take up a lot of time and
require essential management skill
leading up to election night and fol-
lowing through until all the ballots
are counted.
Its other most notable component,
assessor, is key for those who own
property and must pay taxes on it.
Determining the tax rate is both com-
plicated and important and it has
been put through signicant work
with the fair and equitable lowering of
assessed values after the economic
downturn and subsequent recovery.
The county clerk and recorder
aspects of the job have less visible
aspects but are also important in
keeping ofcial records of the coun-
tys residents.
In his time in these ofces, incum-
bent Mark Church has managed the
changes with nesse while also
engaging in a reorganization of the
department to best meet the needs of
the new era. In the Elections Ofce,
there was a situation in which some
provisional ballots were lost tem-
porarily. While it did not affect the
result of the election, Church conduct-
ed a thorough review to ensure that a
similar human error did not take
place again by reinforcing the proto-
col required to ensure all ballots are
tabulated promptly and correctly. The
Elections Ofce also had some ques-
tions about its ability to verify the
qualications for candidates of certain
ofces, most notably the county con-
troller, Church has changed the poli-
cy to require candidates submit docu-
mentation to verify their qualica-
tions. While there are some concerns
about the length of time needed to
count ballots on election night, it is
better to be right than quick yet
Church believes the issue could be
ameliorated through more all-mail
ballots.
His challenger, John Mooney,
believes more could be done to clean
up voter rolls though Church empha-
sized those rolls are cleaned up regu-
larly.
With the assessment process, there
were substantial appeals regarding a
propertys value and its tax liability
in the past several years and the ofce
met that obligation head on through
the creation of an appeals team and an
improved process to meet the grow-
ing decline in values of properties in
the county. The ofce has made sig-
nicant headway in providing for a
new system for property assessments
and is in the midst of developing
requirements for the new system.
Church is also leading the charge for
the preservation of the countys his-
torical documents which will main-
tain documents, some of which have
been stored since the countys found-
ing more than 150 years ago.
Church is a steadfast and matter-of-
fact leader for these ofces and is
embarking on new challenges to
ensure the countys elections, assess-
ments and records-keeping stays with
the times while achieving new ef-
ciencies. Though he has been in ofce
less than four years, he took to the
job quickly and is embarking on new
projects at a rapid pace while facing
everyday challenges head-on. Church
denitely deserves another four years
in ofce.

One of the portraits George W. Bush has painted were
recently displayed on TVand in the newspaper. We read that
he has produced more than two dozen portraits of political
gures that he encountered while in ofce. I spent a lot
of time on personal diplo-
macy and I befriended lead-
ers, he has said. (That is
his other art putting on
the good old boy facade to
convince people what a
swell guy he is). The paint-
ings have been put on dis-
play at his presidential
library in Dallas where
alongside the portraits you
can read, The Art of
Leadership. APresidents
Personal Diplomacy.
In the April 18 The
Week, Jonathan Jones of
The Guardian commented
that the show is at least a brilliant PR move ... Americans
do tend to forgive their more controversial presidents.
There, on another page of the newspaper, was an article
that reported on the slaughter at Fort Hood, where the gun-
man killed three people and himself and injured many oth-
ers. The shooter was a military man who had, among other
problems, been suffering from PTSD because of his deploy-
ment in Afghanistan. My rst thought our military per-
sonnel and innocent people are still dying more than 12
years since that war began. Add Ws hallucinations that he
and his cohorts (Cheney and Rumsfeld) were looking for
weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and then were going to
bring democracy to some middle eastern nations by force.
As a result, he was ultimately responsible for the death and
injury of thousands of our military personnel and tens of
thousands of innocents in Iraq. Of course, in the name of
political expedience, Congress went along with him a
political travesty and a twisted example of democracy, if
there ever was one.
So Whas been enjoying his retirement taking painting
lessons and displaying his products in his library. Does his
conscience bother him as he enjoys his works of art and his
Texas ranch while so many of our young military personnel
continue to suffer from related trauma from a continuing
senseless war? Does he register the least bit of remorse? It
seems that what Richard Cohen wrote in his recent column
about Rumsfeld also applies to W. He appears to be a man
so stuck on himself and his buoyant cleverness that he can-
not accept fault or even entertain the notion.
As I thought of Wand his exploits, a poem that I wrote to
vent my frustration in January 2009 shortly after his presi-
dential term ended, came to mind. Its titled, Mission
Accomplished.
Dear George (and your buddies), Ive written this rhyme
Cause all youve accomplished is truly a crime.
You have governed our country to a state of confusion
With your bluff and bravado and your God told me delu-
sion.
For almost eight years now, your brains been on hold
And your lack of astuteness leaves thinking folks cold.
Youve crushed our great country under hubris and greed.
Who dreamt in 2000 how well youd succeed.
Made your own rules (Constitutions just paper).
As you and your buddies carried on with your caper.
The Iraq war was preemptive. Many innocents died
Or were horribly disabled as you spun, bbed and lied.
To hell with the truth! You wanted the war
To fulll some weird notion of a legacy in store.
As youve kowtowed to business, plus your oil country
lust,
Add the dereg compulsion till our countrys gone bust.
Screw the regular person. Privatize, and much more.
Tax cuts for the wealthy. Cut help for the poor.
Dear George (and your buddies), are you sad or contrite?
Do you have any conscience? Do you sleep well at night?
In dismantling our nation, youve been second to none.
Will we ever recover from what you have done?
If we are truly a nation that cares about the cost of war,
we need to include somewhere in the casualty count those
who are killed when the war comes home. Stacy

A stock market swoon turned into a
comeback Tuesday.
Stocks managed a late-afternoon
rebound for the second time in two days
as investors seemed to brush off a
report of lower confidence among
homebuilders and simmering tensions
in the Ukraine.
The late rally even gave a lift to tech
stocks like Google and Intel, which
had weighed on the market much of the
day.
As long as the market can close on a
positive note, it sends a signal to
investors that there are bargains in the
market still to be had, said Quincy
Krosby, market strategist at Prudential
Financial.
The day started off well when
Johnson & Johnson and Coca-Cola
reported encouraging rst-quarter earn-
ings.
But the strong beginning fell apart
by late morning, when investors got a
look at the latest measure of U.S.
homebuilders condence in the hous-
ing market at 10 a.m. Eastern time.
Builders saw overall sales conditions
as poor, even though they expected
improvement over the spring and sum-
mer.
The morning slide didnt hold, how-
ever. By the end of the day, the Standard
& Poors 500 index rose 12.37 points,
or 0.7 percent, to 1,842.98.
All ten industry sectors in the S&P
500 increased, led by utilities.
The Dow Jones industrial average
added 89.32 points, or 0.6 percent, to
16,262.56. The Nasdaq composite rose
11.47 points, or 0.3 percent, to
4,034.16.
All three indexes remain down for the
month and year.
The Russell 2000 index of small-
company stocks, which had been down
more than 1 percent earlier in the day,
ended higher. The index is still off 3.8
percent for the year, more than the
other major indexes. Its also down
more than 7 percent from its recent
peak of 1,208 on March 4.
Small-company stocks have been
racking up losses over the past ve
weeks, as investors look to reduce their
exposure to risk. Thats a turnaround
from last year, when the Russell soared
37 percent versus 30 percent for the
S&P 500 index.
The stock market has been losing
ground in recent weeks as investors
worry about whether some tech stocks
became overpriced.
There still seems to be some con-
cern about valuation in some corners of
the market, especially some of the
more high-ying names that had run
pretty far, pretty fast, and thats put-
ting an overall weight on the market,
said Brad Sorensen, director of market
and sector analysis at the Schwab
Center for Financial Research.
Traders also remain focused on what
the latest wave of quarterly earnings
will say about the health of the U.S.
economy and companies.
After regular trade ended Tuesday,
Yahoo soared 8 percent and Intel rose 1
percent. The two tech giants reported
earnings that beat analysts expecta-
tions.
Several major companies, including
Google, American Express, Bank of
America and IBM were due to report
results on Wednesday.
Were looking for healthy earnings
growth and so far, were getting it,
said Anastasia Amoroso, global market
strategist at JPMorgan Chase.
Not all stocks managed to end in the
green.
Most homebuilder shares slumped,
with M/I Homes among the biggest
decliners. The builder fell 38 cents, or
1.7 percent, to $22.11.
PetSmart posted the steepest drop
among companies in the S&P 500
index after an analyst downgraded the
stock, saying new competition in pet
care will create trouble for the retailer.
The stock fell $2.76, or 4 percent, to
$66.61.
TripAdvisor led all the risers in the
S&P 500 index, gaining $3.53, or 4.4
percent, to $83.30.
Markets rebound after choppy day
By Martin Crutsinger
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON The Federal Reserve
may be about to turn more aggressive in its
regulation of the nancial system.
Fed Chair Janet Yellen suggested Tuesday
that current regulatory rules might not be
enough to prevent the kind of risk-taking
that triggered the 2008 nancial crisis and
nearly toppled the entire banking system.
She said the largest U.S. banks may need
to hold additional capital to withstand peri-
ods of financial stress. Non-banks with
deep reaches into the financial system
might also need to meet tougher rules, she
said. Such rms range from money market
mutual funds to private equity and hedge
funds.
Yellen told a banking conference in
Atlanta that current rules on how much cap-
ital banks must hold to protect against
losses dont address all threats. The Feds
staff is considering what further measures
might be needed, she said.
At the same time, Yellen said the Fed
would review the likely effects of imposing
stricter rules on banks. Banks and their
advocates have warned that further tighten-
ing bank regulation would lead to reduced
lending to businesses and nancial institu-
tions and could slow economic growth.
Analysts said Yellens message echoed
remarks that Daniel Tarullo, a Fed governor
and the boards point person on bank regu-
latory issues, has made in the past. They
said it could be a sign that the Fed under
Yellen will take a more assertive stance
toward bank regulation.
In her speech, Yellen said further actions
to address risks, such as requiring rms to
hold more capital, would likely apply only
to the largest, most complex banks. But
she suggested that other requirements could
be applied more broadly to medium-size
banks and non-bank nancial institutions.
Karen Shaw Petrou, an analyst who heads
Federal Financial Analytics in
Washington, said Yellen also appeared to
be signaling a desire to ensure that in tight-
ening rules for big banks, regulators dont
just drive risky behavior into less regulated
areas of the nancial system. These areas
are often called the shadow banking sys-
tem.

DETROIT As General Motors
shows off its newest cars and trucks in
New York this week, analysts are
watching for signs that consumers are
shying away from the ones sitting on
dealer lots.
Many expect GM sales to take a hit
from a mishandled recall of small cars,
though its unclear when and how
severe. Any decline would hurt the
automakers market share and potential-
ly its credit rating. Concerned investors
have sent GM stock to a 10-month low.
So far, GM executives say theyre
not worried. Buyers recognize that the
recalls affected older models and not
the new vehicles in GMs showrooms,
GMs global product development
chief Mark Reuss said at an event
Tuesday evening in New York to intro-
duce a high-performance Corvette con-
vertible and a new subcompact SUV,
the Chevrolet Trax.
Were really not seeing peoples
interest wane. It really is all about the
products and the price and the value,
and were creating that today, he said.
Reuss said trafc at U.S. dealerships
hasnt waned since the recalls.
Data collected from dealers by J.D.
Power and Associates show GM U.S.
sales fell 6.3 percent in the rst ve
days of April compared with a year
ago, while the overall market dropped
just 0.3 percent. The same data show
an even larger decline for Ford Motor
Co.
April is expected to be a rebound
month in the U.S. after a rough winter,
and analysts do expect sales to pick up
in the months second half. GMs
global Chevrolet chief Alan Batey said
he remains optimistic about April
sales, which started slow because
March ended so strong.

SAN FRANCISCO Yahoo is pros-
pering from its lucrative investments
in Asia while the Internet companys
listless advertising sales are picking
up, if ever so slightly, under CEO
Marissa Mayer.
The positive signs in the Yahoos
rst-quarter report overshadowed a 20
percent decline in the companys earn-
ings during the opening three months
of the year.
Yahoos stock gained $2.19, or 6.4
percent, to $36.40 in Tuesdays
extended trading. Even if the shares
rally similarly in Wednesdays regular
trading, the stock will remain below
its 52-week high of $41.72 reached in
early January.
The results released Tuesday high-
light the contrasting performances of
Yahoos investment portfolio and the
companys main business of running
ad-supported online services.
Yahoo Inc. is making most of its
money from its holdings in two Asian
Internet companies Chinas Alibaba
Group and Yahoo Japan.
Intel reports lower 1Q
net income, higher revenue
NEW YORK Intels earnings fell
in the rst three months of the year
amid a continued slump in the world-
wide PC market, but revenue grew
slightly because of solid demand for
tablet processors and its data center
services.
Intel Corp. is the worlds largest
maker of microprocessors, which act
as the brains of computers. Intel has
historically been strong in selling
chips for personal computers, but that
business is declining as people buy
smartphones and tablets instead. Intel
has been slow to respond to that shift
with lower-energy chips that mobile
devices demand.
Intel has been working to change
that. Besides coming out with mobile-
friendly chips, Intel is also expanding
into new technologies such as wear-
able devices and everyday appliances.
It bought a maker of tness trackers,
Basis Science, this year.

Dons get first PAL win
By Antonio Gonzalez
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OAKLAND Go small or go home.
That might as well be the new mantra for
the Golden State Warriors in the playoffs.
With center Andrew Bogut out for the fore-
seeable future with a fractured right rib, the
Warriors are searching for
a way to replace their best
interior defender in a rota-
tion that already lacks big
men.
Warriors coach Mark
Jackson has irted with
smaller lineups late this
season, and playing
small ball in the play-
offs could be his only
option when backup center Jermaine ONeal
is not on the oor.
You can see it. Its a lineup were going to
have to use at some point, and Im ne with
using it, Jackson said. The thing that
were going to have to make sure we do is
battle defensively when we go with that line-
up in the paint area.
The Warriors (50-31) play at Denver in
their regular-season nale Wednesday night.
They are locked into the sixth seed in the
Western Conference and will most likely
begin the postseason at the Los Angeles
Clippers on Saturday or Sunday.
Defending DeAndre Jordan and Blake
Grifn of the Clippers, of course, could pose
a major problem without Bogut in the paint.
Bogut averaged just 7.3 points, 10
rebounds and 1.81 blocks in 67 games this
season, but he is among the league leaders in
several defensive ratings and played a major
role in Golden States run to the second round
of last years playoffs. Complicating mat-
ters more, the Warriors have just one healthy
big man behind Bogut.
Last years backup center, Festus Ezeli,
has been out all season recovering from
right knee surgery and is not ready to play.
Jackson also indicated that seldom-used
reserve centers Hilton Armstrong and
Ognjen Kuzmic are likely not options to sud-
denly start logging heavy minutes at the
most important time of the year.
But spreading the oor with smaller line-
ups has produced some of Golden States
Warriors trying to move
on without big man Bogut

BERKELEY A more relaxed fan base,
milder weather and a chance to coach at the
top-rated public university in the country
added up to Cuonzo Martin making the deci-
sion to leave Tennessee for California.
Cal hired Martin as the 16th mens bas-
ketball coach in school history Tuesday, a
decision that stunned Volunteers administra-
tors and players after he had reafrmed his
commitment to Tennessee just two weeks
ago. Martin said it was a difcult move but
the opportunity at Cal was too much to pass
up.
Its a beautiful place. I got off the plane
and I just said, Ahhh, Martin said during
his introductory news conference in
Berkeley. I think it has a chance to be spe-
cial here. I think thats the most intriguing
thing to me. Its a place I could spend the
rest of my life.
Cal athletic director Sandy Barbour said
Martins contract, which is still being nal-
ized, is for ve years. Financial details will
be released at a later date.
Martin also said he will
bring quite a few of his
assistant coaches from
Tennessee to Cal once his
contract is complete.
Martin replaces Mike
Montgomery, who retired
last month after six sea-
sons in Berkeley. Martin
went 63-41 in three sea-
sons at Tennessee,
including a 24-13 mark and an appearance in
the regional seminals of the NCAAtourna-
ment this season. He also was previously
the coach at Missouri State.
Martin succeeds one of the most success-
ful college coaches in the history of the San
Francisco Bay Area. Montgomery nished
his career with a 677-317 record, having
also spent 18 years at Stanford and eight at
Montana.
Replacing a revered coach is nothing new
for Martin.

Louis, Illinois, took over a Tennessee pro-
gram under NCAAinvestigation in 2011 and

Aragon third baseman Sophia Cerreta elds a grounder during the Dons 5-1 win over Burlingame, the rst of the season for the Dons.
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Both the Burlingame and Aragon softball
teams went into Tuesdays matchup in San
Mateo in search of their initial Peninsula
Athletic League Bay Division wins of the
season.
Burlingame was coming off having a per-
fect game thrown against it by Carlmont
standout Rebecca Faulkner last Thursday,
while Aragon had slowly been putting
everything together the last couple of
weeks.
When the dust settled, the Dons used
strong defense and clutch pitching to pull
out a 5-1 win over the Panthers for their rst
league win of the year.
The past three games have been equally
great, said Aragons first-year coach
Christie McCoy-Hjelm, a 1993 Aragon
graduate and in the schools Athletic Hall of
Fame. Its denitely rebuilding (this sea-
son). Were really concentrating on our core
fundamentals defense and pitching.
Both were on display Tuesday for Aragon
(1-5 PAL Bay, 3-11 overall). Defensively,
the Dons committed only one error while
making most of the rest of the defensive
plays look routine.
Which was anything but. Burlingame (0-
5, 4-11) hit a lot of balls right on the screws
but they always seemed to nd the glove
of an Aragon defender.
Not much to say, said Burlingame coach
Doug McKeever. Right now were just
struggling.
The Panthers started strong, ending their
six-inning scoreless streak in the top of the
rst when Amelia Milne took a 3-2 pitch
from Aragon pitcher Jessica Doss and sent a
tower shot over the fence in center eld for a
1-0 Burlingame lead.
The bomb in the rst inning was a good
sign, McKeever said. But we need to be
more patient (at the plate).
That pitch to Milne was one of the few
mistakes Doss made, as she pitched a com-
plete game in picking up the win, scattering
ve hits in the process.
Doss did run into a trouble a few times, but
managed to wiggle off the hook in both
instances. In the third inning, Burlingame
got back-to-back hits from Rachel Topper
and Haley Crowell, but a elders choice for
an out ended the threat.
In the top of the sixth, the Panthers hit
Doss hard. Crowells bid for extra bases died

Three big extra-base hits lifted Aragon
over El Camino 4-2 in a key Peninsula
Athletic League Ocean Division matchup
Tuesday at Aragon.
The Dons got an RBI triple from Steven
Hughes in the rst, a double from Andre
Perkins to setup a sacrice y in the third,
and an RBI double from Justin Johnson in
the fourth.
With the win, Aragon thrusts itself back
into the mix in the Ocean Division race.
Entering play Tuesday tied for third place
with Capuchino, the Dons (4-3 PAL Ocean,
9-8 overall) remain within one game of the
top of the standings currently occupied by
Hillsdale and Sequoia.
After the Dons split their rst three Ocean
Division series of the year, manager Lenny
Souza said theres only one way for Aragon
to punch a ticket to the playoffs.
If were going to be around at the end of
the year, weve got to start sweeping some
teams, Souza said.
Dons right-hander Chad Franquez shined
in his rst Tuesday start of the year. The jun-
ior worked ve innings, allowing four hits
and striking out four against two walks and
two hit batsmen. El Camino (4-5, 9-10) had
trouble squaring up Franquez all afternoon.
The only run he surrendered was as a result of
an unorthodox steal of home.
Everything was working, Franquez said.
My curveball was nice. I threw a couple
good changeups there, a little cutter.
Everything was working pretty good.
Aragon got on the board in the first
against El Camino starting pitcher John
Turner. Chris Davis kept the inning alive
with a two-out single. Hughes followed with
a booming triple to center to score Davis,
giving Aragon a 1-0 lead.
Starting with a 2-0 count, obviously
thats a nice batters count, Hughes said. I
got a low inside fastball and was able to
put a charge in it.
El Camino answered back in the third.
With one out, Marvin Vargas shot a single
to right. Vargas moved to second on a balk
and advanced to third on a single by Harley
Aragon looking
to make a move

Menlo-Atherton 8, Half Moon Bay 0
The Bears snapped a two-game losing
streak in Peninsula Athletic League play with
big win Monday at Half Moon Bay.
M-Abanged out 13 hits and scored three in
the second and two in the third to take an
early lead. Bears junior Matthew McGarry
was 3 for 4 with a home run, his second of the
year. Senior starter Erik Amundson earned the
win, ring six shutout innings while strik-
ing out nine to improve to 5-2. With the win,
M-A improves to 4-2 in the Bay Division
(and a league-best 12-5 overall) to move into
a rst-place tie with Terra Nova. HMB falls to
2-5 in league play and 9-9 overall.
Carlmont 15, Tehachapi 5
The Scots finally got their offense
untracked at the Fresno Easter Classic
Tuesday with the win over Tehachapi.
Carlmont (9-9-1) scored in six of the seven
innings including nine in the fourth
inning as the Scots banged out 17 hits.
Aaron Albaum, Spencer Stewart, Joe Pratt
and Mike McGill all drove in a pair of runs
for Carlmont, with Stewart nishing with
four hits and Albaum collecting three, includ-

Local sports roundup
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MINNEAPOLIS Another group of for-
mer NHL players has joined the ght for
compensation for head injuries they say
they incurred while playing, while at the
same time targeting the violence of the
game that they believe brought about those
injuries.
Retired players Dave Christian, Reed
Larson and William Bennett led a class
action lawsuit in federal court on Tuesday
alleging that the league has promoted ght-
ing and downplayed the risk of head injuries
that come from it.
I think the gloried violence is really
the Achilles heel for the NHL, said Charles
Bucky Zimmerman, an attorney at
Zimmerman Reed that led the lawsuit on
behalf of the players. If anything comes of
this, the focus on the gloried violence and
perhaps the change to that will be a good
thing.
The lawsuit, which is similar to one
brought by former football players against
the NFL, joins others led by hockey play-
ers in Washington and New York and seeks
monetary damages and increased medical
monitoring.
As we have indicated earlier, another
lawsuit of this type is not unexpected, NHL
Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly said in an
email to The Associated Press. Its the
nature of these types of cases that once one
is led, a number of similarly styled cases
follow. Nothing changes our belief that all
of these cases are without merit and they
will be defended accordingly.
The NHLPAdeclined to comment.

A year removed from advancing to the Northern
California tournament semifinals, Serra is simply bat-
tling for seeding respect as the 2014 boys tennis season
winds down.
Serra scored a 5-2 victory over rival St. Francis Tuesday.
With undefeated Bellarmine running away with the West
Coast Athletic League title this season, the Padres are hop-
ing to win out through their nal three matches to wrap up
second place and secure premium seeding in the Central
Coast Section playoffs.
Graduating ve players from last years team, including
2013 WCAL Player of the Year Sean Talmadge, the compo-
sition of the 2014 Serra roster is vastly different. At the
start of the year, Serra head coach Marcus Charles promoted
ve players from the junior-varsity ranks a senior, a jun-
ior and three freshmen to ll the void. And there have
been growing pains with the youth movement.
Theyve been given the tools but its going to take them
another two years to see it and to be able to handle the pres-
sure, Charles said. Also, theyve got to live up to being
champions and having a target on their back.
With Tuesdays win, Serra improves to 7-4 in WCAL play
and 10-4 overall.
The Padres got two big individual wins over St. Francis
from their doubles teams, to which a lot of the J.V. inexpe-
rience has funneled. Charles refers to his doubles players as
the rookies. But they were the difference Tuesday.
Team Ryan, Serras No. 3 doubles of Ryan Cao and Ryan
Leung, proved the clincher with a win over Arvan Das and
Kamron Dhepanah, 6-4, 6-3. Serra No. 2 doubles Ali Jafri
and Andrew Olson also prevailed with a win over Max Pace
and Ben Lewis, 6-3, 6-3. St. Francis No. 1 doubles Patrick
Negerleson and Joe Tripaldi defeated Rohan Kothari and
Matthew McNamara 2-6, 7-6, 6-3.
In singles action, Serra No. 1 Matt Campana came from
behind to defeat Kyle Pease 6-7, 7-5, 6-3. St. Francis No. 2
Neel Ramachandran downed Gordan Barrows 7-5, 3-6, (10-
4). Serra No. 3 Brendon Barrows defeated Matt Liston 6-2,
6-0. Serra No. 4 Eric Dennis defeated Erik Ratta 6-2, 6-2.
The Padres singles have been dependable all season
long, with Campana and Gordan Barrows running neck-and-
neck for Serras nominees for WCAL Player of the Year,
according to Charles. Campana has already committed to
play at St. Marys in the fall. And with Gordan Barrows
entering Tuesday undefeated in individual play, his loss to
Ramachandran was his rst of the year.
With three games remaining in the WCAL regular season,
Charles is optimistic the Padres can make a run at second
place. But theyve got their work cut out for them, having
entered play Tuesday in fourth place behind second-place
St. Ignatius and third-place Mitty.
After losing to Valley Christian earlier this season, Serra
has a critical rematch with the Warriors next week.
Valley Christian is a very important match because
they got us last week, Charles said. So, we have to get
them back.

BOSTON Survivors, rst responders and relatives of
those killed in the Boston Marathon bombing marked the
anniversary Tuesday with tributes that combined sorrow
over the loss of innocent victims with pride over the citys
resilience in the face of a terror attack.
This day will always be hard, but this place will always
be strong, former Mayor Thomas Menino told an invita-
tion-only audience of about 2,500 people at the Hynes
Convention Center, not far from the finish line where
three people died and more than 260 others were injured a
year ago.
Vice President Joe Biden, who attended the ceremony, said
the courage shown by survivors and those who lost loved
ones is an inspiration for other Americans dealing with loss
and tragedy.
You have become the face of Americas resolve, he said.
Biden also praised the 36,000 runners who plan to run
the marathon next week, saying they will send a message
to terrorists.
America will never, ever, ever stand down, he said, to
loud applause. He added, We own the nish line.
In the evening, after the tributes were over and most peo-
ple had left, police evacuated the area around the nish line
to investigate two unattended backpacks and took a man
into custody. They said the bomb squad detonated the back-
packs as a precaution, but there was no immediate word on
what was in them.
In Washington, President Barack Obama observed the
anniversary of last years deadly marathon attack with a pri-
vate moment of silence at the White House.
Today, we recognize the incredible courage and leader-
ship of so many Bostonians in the wake of unspeakable
tragedy, Obama said in a statement. And we offer our deep-
est gratitude to the courageous reghters, police ofcers,
medical professionals, runners and spectators who, in an
instant, displayed the spirit Boston was built on perse-
verance, freedom and love.
Obama said this years race, scheduled for April 21, will
show the world the meaning of Boston Strong as a city
chooses to run again.
Authorities say two ethnic Chechen brothers who lived in
the former Soviet republic of Kyrgyzstan and the Dagestan
region of Russia planned and orchestrated the attack with
two bombs in backpacks near the marathon nish line on
April 15, 2013.
Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26, died following a shootout with
police days after the bombings. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 20, has
pleaded not guilty to federal charges and is awaiting a trial
in which he faces a possible death sentence. Prosecutors say
the brothers also killed MIT police Ofcer Sean Collier days
after the bombings in an attempt to steal his gun.
Prosecutors have said Dzhokhar Tsarnaev left a hand-
scrawled confession condemning U.S. actions in Muslim
countries on the inside wall of a boat in which he was found
hiding following the police shootout.
At the tribute, several survivors of the bombing alluded to
their injuries but focused on the strength theyve drawn
from fellow survivors, rst responders, doctors, nurses and
strangers who have offered them support.
We should never have met this way, but we are so grateful
for each other, said Patrick Downes, a newlywed who was
injured along with his wife. Each lost a left leg below the
knee in the bombings.
Downes described Boston Strong, the slogan coined after
the attack, as a movement that symbolizes the citys deter-
mination to recover. He called the people who died our
guardian angels.
We will carry them in our hearts, he said.
Earlier in the day, a wreath-laying ceremony drew the fam-
ilies of the three people killed last year Martin Richard,
Krystle Campbell and Lu Lingzi and Colliers relatives.

highest-scoring games, including a 130-120 victory over
Minnesota on Monday night. The lineup allows more spac-
ing for streaky shooting guards Stephen Curry and Klay
Thompson, and more room for penetration by forwards such
as David Lee, Draymond Green, Andre Iguodala and Harrison
Barnes.
Jackson said his lineups will depend on matchups, but his
most likely option is one he has had mixed success with this
season: sliding Lee and Marreese Speights to center and mov-
ing up Green and Barnes to power forward.
Its a combination players certainly endorse.
We like to push the ball and get up and down with that line-
up, and it works to our advantage, said Green, who scored a
career-high 20 points and tied a career-best with 12 rebounds
against the Timberwolves on Monday night. Me and David
play well with each other. Both of us can pass the ball really
well, knock shots down and it stretches the defense out.
Playing short-handed is something the Warriors have done
successfully, at times, the past two years.
Bogut, Iguodala, Lee and ONeal all sat out prolonged
stretches with various injuries this season. Bogut also missed
50 games recovering from left ankle surgery last year, and Lee
tore his right hip exor in the rst round of the playoffs
against Denver missing four games and playing a limited
role when he returned.
The Warriors, who also were the No. 6 seed last year, upset
the Nuggets before losing to the eventual Western Conference
champion San Antonio Spurs in six games. The Clippers
could pose a much tougher challenge this time, especially
with point guard Chris Paul healthy again and Doc Rivers as
coach.
The Warriors and Clippers split the four-game season
series, with each team winning twice on its home oor. The
animosity between the suddenly resurgent franchises
including a Christmas Day game marred by multiple ejections
and technical fouls also should give Golden State a boost
of motivation without Bogut.
We hope a miracle happens with Andrew, Curry said.
Well see what happens, but as a team were focused on what
the challenge ahead of us is and weve got to move forward.

WARRIORS
has averaged 21 wins per year. But, at times, he struggled to
escape the shadow of former coach Bruce Pearl, who led the
Volunteers to NCAA tournament appearances in each of his
six years on the job.
For me, as a coach, your style is your style, Martin said.
I dont mind following guys. I like learning from guys.
The decision left players, administrators and fans back in
Knoxville stunned. Tennessee athletic director Dave Hart said
he didnt know Martin was involved in the Cal job until they
spoke Tuesday morning.
We did have a conversation. He was very emotional, Hart
said. The bottom line is he said in his heart he believed this
was best for (him) and his family.
Hart said he wishes Martin nothing but success at Cal and
understands why he left after a tough year.
When Tennessee was struggling earlier this season, dis-
gruntled fans started an online petition to bring back Pearl,
who has since been hired by Auburn. Martin began to silence
his critics when Tennessee revived its season by winning
eight of nine games before falling 73-71 to Michigan in the
Midwest Regional seminals.
Martin also spoke with Marquette about its coaching vacan-
cy a few weeks ago, but he pulled his name from considera-
tion. Hart said soon afterward that the university was rework-
ing Martins contract. Martin also released a statement
through the university on April 1 reafrming his position at
Tennessee, saying Tennessee is where I want to be. That has
never changed.
Two weeks later, it did.
Many of Martins former Tennessee players expressed sup-
port for the coach on Twitter. Some even referenced the fan
backlash as a reason he left.
Cant treat people any kind of way and expect good in
return, wrote Vols guard Jordan McRae.
Martin, for his part, downplayed the petition. He said he
didnt pay attention to it at rst, then tried to use it as moti-
vation for his players during the seasons stretch run.
They just woke up a hungry bear, Martin said. It wasnt a
big deal at all.
Hart said he did not believe Martin left because of money.
Martin was set to make $1.35 million the next two years,
which ranked him in the bottom half of Southeastern
Conference coaches, but Hart said Tennessee offered him a
two-year extension worth $1.8 million in each of the next
four years. Martins buyout option from Tennessee dropped
from $2.6 million to $1.3 million on April 1.
Martin is not the only one changing his tune about
Tennessee, either.
Kingsley Okoroh, a 7-foot-1 center originally from
England who played this season for Westwind Preparatory
Academy in Phoenix, announced on Twitter that he has
switched his verbal commitment from Tennessee to
California. Okoroh had verbally committed to Tennessee on
Monday.
Martin previously served as coach at Missouri State, going
61-41 in three seasons, including win totals of 24 and 26 in
his nal two seasons. In 2010-11, Martin guided Missouri
State to the regular-season Missouri Valley championship and
was named the conferences Coach of the Year.
As a player, Martin earned rst-team All-Big Ten honors in
1995 at Purdue when he averaged 18.4 points per game and
made 91 3-pointers. After playing two seasons in the NBA, he
served on the staff at his alma mater from 2000-08 rst as
an assistant coach under Gene Keady and in his nal year as
associate head coach.

SAN FRANCISCO Hector Sanchez sin-
gled home the winning run with two outs in
the 12th inning and the San Francisco
Giants beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 3-2
Tuesday night after Brandon Belts tying
double in the ninth.
Hunter Pence had four hits for the Giants,
who have won three of four.
Brandon Crawford singled off Brandon
League (0-1) with one out in the 12th and
advanced to second on a groundout by
Brandon Hicks. His bouncer deected off
third baseman Juan Uribe to shortstop
Hanley Ramirez, who threw to rst for the
out.
But the Dodgers were unable to get the
lead runner on the play, and it cost them.
Crawford went to third on a wild pitch and
Sanchez hit a sharp one-hopper that glanced
off the glove of diving second baseman
Justin Turner and into center eld.

ANAHEIM Josh Donaldson drove in
Jed Lowrie with an 11th-inning double, and
the Oakland Athletics overcame Mike
Trouts tying homer in the ninth for a 10-9
victory against the Los Angeles Angels on
Tuesday night.
Lowrie led off the 11th with a single
against Yoslan Herrera (0-1), the Angels sev-
enth pitcher. Donaldson hit a sharp grounder
inside third base for the AL-leading As, who
have won four straight and eight of nine.
Jim Johnson (2-2) pitched two innings for
Oakland, getting Howie Kendrick on a
groundout with Trout and Albert Pujols in
scoring position to end it.
Trout hit a two-run shot in the ninth for
the Angels, who have lost three of four.
Both teams erased late three-run decits
during two dismal bullpen performances.
The Angels trailed 9-6 in the eighth after
leading 6-3 heading to the seventh.
Brandon Moss, Alberto Callaspo and
pinch-hitter Derek Norris had RBI singles
during a four-run eighth for the As. One night
after Angels closer Ernesto Frieri blew a one-
run lead, newcomer Joe Smith squandered a 6-
5 advantage by giving up four runs, three hits
and two walks without getting an out.
But David Freese had an RBI single in the
eighth for Los Angeles, and Kole Calhoun
led off the ninth with a double off Sean
Doolittle, who has blown seven of his last
11 save opportunities.
Trout, who had three hits and drove in
three runs, tied it with a no-doubt shot to
left, his fth homer of the season and the
Angels major league-best 23rd of the year.
Dan Straily was the rst As starter to give
up more than three earned runs all season.

in the glove of freshman center elder Jen
Horita, who streaked into the gap to chase
down Crowells drive. Milne followed with
a single and Kat Marcan came up with a blast
to the fence in left-center eld, but was held
to only a single when Milne had to hold up
to make sure the ball wasnt caught.
Doss buckled down, however, and got a
popout to third for the second out and then a
line drive to Horita in center eld ended the
inning.
[Doss is] denitely a work in progress,
McCoy-Hjelm said. Shes beginning to
take ownership of the pitchers circle. Shes
working hard to keep ahead of the game.
A baserunning blunder in the bottom of
the first inning shut down a potential
Aragon rally, but the Dons put things
together in taking the lead for good with
two runs in the bottom of the second.
Soraya Valdez-Frick, the Dons freshman
shortstop, started the uprising when she
sent a Sara Slavsky offering into the right-
center eld gap. The Burlingame right eld-
er went a long way into the alley and got her
glove on it, but couldnt squeeze it. It
popped out of her glove and Valdez-Frick
was standing on second with a leadoff dou-
ble. Sophia Cerreta followed and reached on
an ineld hit, with Valdez-Frick going to
third. Nicole Briedis came up and hit a
ground ball to second, with Valdez-Frick
beating the throw to the plate to tie the
score at 1, with Cerreta taking third on the
play. Brianna Reynolds then put the Dons
ahead to stay with a sacrice y to center
that plated Cerreta.
Aragon doubled its score in the bottom of
the third inning. Jen Horita used her speed
to beat out an ineld hit to lead off the
inning. Lila Dobroff followed and hit a
grounder to second base. The second base-
man appeared to tag Horita as she went by
and then threw to rst for what looked to be
a double play, but the eld umpire ruled
Horita evaded the tag and wound up at third
with one out.
Following a line drive for the second out,
Burlingame looked like it might get out of
the inning unscathed when Nicole Horita hit
a routine grounder to second. But the throw
to rst got past the rst baseman, Nicole
Horita was safe and Jen Horita came home
with Aragons third run of the game.
Nicole Horita would come all the around
to score when Valdez-Frick followed with an
RBI double to the left-center eld gap to put
Aragon up 4-1.
The Dons rounded out the scoring in the
bottom of the fth. Nicole Horita led off the
inning with a double and following a pair of
groundouts, Briedis drove in the nal run of
the game with a single to right.
Weve had lots and lots of positive pro-
gression (since the season started),
McCoy-Hjelm said. Was today perfect?
Absolutely not. But well highlight the
positives and attack the negatives.

ARAGON
Torres. But on an attempted steal of second,
Torres got caught in a rundown that nearly
turned into a terric double play. Aragons sec-
ond baseman Johnson chased Torres back to
rst base and tagged him out then red home as
Vargas broke for the plate. Johnsons throw was
there in plenty of time, but Vargas dodged the
tag of Aragons catcher to score the run.
He kind of avoided the tag and reached his
hand in and it was a great slide, El Camino
manager Michael Ohman said. He was kind of
dead to rights. To be honest, he was kind of
lucky. But sometimes its better to be lucky than
good.
Aragon bounced right back in the bottom of
the third though. Brenden Donnelly reached on
an ineld error to start the inning. Perkins fol-
lowed with a double high off the right-eld wall
that came within about a foot of being a home
run, moving Donnelly to third. With one out,
Davis lifted a healthy sacrice y to center giv-
ing Aragon a 2-1 lead.
In the fourth, the Dons added on by virtue of
another two-out rally. Spencer Walling singled
to center. On the ensuing pitch to Johnson,
Walling stole second. On the next offering he
moved to third on a wild pitch. The next pitch
was ried to right-center by Johnson to go for
an RBI double, giving Aragon a 3-1 lead.
In the Aragon fth, Franquez got a one-out
rally started with a single to left. He moved to
second on a wild pitch before Davis hammered
an RBI single to center to plate Franquez, giv-
ing Aragon a 4-1 lead.
With Davis on in relief to start the sixth, El
Camino mounted a rally. The Colts scored one
run, but it could have been much more. Everardo
Valdez drew a one-out walk. Valdez advanced to
second on a groundout then moved to third on a
two-out single by Thomas Cronin. No. 9 hitter
Tony Garcia delivered an RBI single to close the
Dons lead to 4-2.
With the potential go-ahead run at the plate in
the person of Andrew Pierotti, Davis notched
the rst of his two strikeouts of the day to shut
down the rally.
Turner took the loss for the Colts to fall
below the .500 mark at 3-4 despite entering
into play with a 2.12 ERA.
Unfortunately for him, his record doesnt
show how well hes pitched, Ohman said. I
cant imagine there being two or three better
pitchers than him in our league this year. Hes
basically done well in every single game.
With 12 of their 16 games led at
Maxpreps.com, the Dons unofcially have hit
.226 as a team. According to Hughes though,
that is starting to turn around.
Were starting to get the bats going again,
Hughes said. Our offense was going up and
down. Now were at a nice peak and the extra
base hits are coming now.
As for the possibility of a sweep, Aragon will
turn to ace right-hander Kevin Hahn in
Thursdays two-game series nale.

NEW YORK Its part flatbread, but
also part pizza. So Subway naturally called
its latest offering the Flatizza.
Since the pizza-like creation made its
national debut last month, its inelegant
combination name has provoked a good
deal of snickering. As NPR put it in a satir-
ical column, the name is embarrassing to
say when you have to order one. Others
are simply stumped over how to pronounce
i t .
Its flah-TEE-zah, explained Tony
Pace, Subways chief marketing officer, in
a phone interview. Later in the conversa-
tion, he adopted a caricature of an Italian
accent when saying it and punctuated the
word by making a sound as if he were kiss-
ing his fingers.
Mwah!
As funny as the name may sound to some,
it gives Subway a way to brand a product
that might otherwise seem run-of-the-mill
and sear it into the memory of potential
customers.
Thats especially true considering flat-
bread pizzas have become so common,
with chains such as California Pizza
Kitchen and Olive Garden using them as a
way to seem trendier.
At the end of the day, a significant por-
tion of marketing is about differentiation,
Pace said.
Its not unusual for big companies to
have their own lingos, of course.
McDonalds, for instance, offers
McNuggets, McWraps, McMuffins and the
McRib. And Subway is no slacker in the
Department of Made-Up Words; among its
creations are Footlong and the Sub-tem-
ber and Janu-ANY promotions that run
in September and January, respectively.
The Flatizza itself is the product of
another of Subways language mash-ups
Subway: Its pronounced Flah-TEE-zah
Subway said the Flatizza will replace the round,personal pies offered at many of itsU.S.stores.

Maybe its the bright color. Maybe its
the fresh, vibrant taste. Whatever the rea-
son, Easter has become inextricably linked
to lemon (and chocolate, of course). So we
decided to do a refresh of the conventional
breakfast cinnamon bun, infusing it with
lemony goodness three different ways.
We start by replacing the cinnamon sugar
with sugar spiked with lemon zest. Then we
ll the buns with purchased lemon curd (a
decadent, tangy treat that also is good sim-
ply spread onto toast). Finally, we drizzle
our finished buns with icing made from
lemon juice and powdered sugar.
The result is vibrantly lemony, but not
mouth puckering. And to keep things fast
and easy, we use purchased frozen bread
dough as the base for the buns. All you need
to do is thaw the dough, roll it out, ll it,
then roll it back up before slicing and bak-
ing. These buns are the perfect way to start
Easter or any spring morning.
STICKY LEMONY BREAKFAST BUNS
Youll nd loaves of frozen bread dough in
the grocers freezer section. Jars of lemon
curd are alongside the jams and jellies.
Start to nish: 1 1/2 hours (30 minutes
active)
Servings: 15
1/4 cup granulated sugar
Zest of 1 lemon
Two 1-pound loaves frozen white bread
dough, thawed and allowed to come to room
temperature
1/2 cup lemon curd
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 1/4 cups powdered sugar
Line a baking sheet with kitchen parch-
ment.
In a small bowl, stir together the granulat-
ed sugar and lemon zest. Sprinkle half of it
on a clean counter.
Place 1 loaf of the dough on the sprinkled
counter, then roll it out to form an 8-by-16-
inch rectangle (with one of the long sides
facing you). Sprinkle the dough with the
remaining sugar, then gently run the roller
over the dough to ensure the sugar mixture
sticks. Roll out the second loaf to the same
size, then set it on top of the rst.
Spread the lemon curd over the dough,
leaving a 1-inch strip bare along the long
Changing bread dough
into lemony sticky buns
A
few weeks ago I stumbled upon a
Hispanic bakery that changed my
understanding of what a delicious
pudding could be.
When I think pudding, I think mostly of
rice- or egg-based recipes made with milk.
Rich and sweet, creamy
and smooth, these pud-
dings ooze comfort.
But this bakery offered
something entirely dif-
ferent.
Stacked in one of the
shops refrigerated
cases were small, plas-
tic deli containers of
something that resem-
bled white butter sprin-
kled with cinnamon. It
looked solid, far more
dense than the puddings I grew up with.
When I asked, the baker explained that
they were tembleque and she had made them
just that morning.
I was clueless at the time, but it turns out
tembleque is a Puerto Rican pudding made
from coconut milk and cornstarch. And
when I got my container to the car and dug
in, I realized I had been missing something
incredible. The pudding was sweet without
being cloying, and thick without being
chewy.
I also realized that the clean, yet rich a-
vors of this simple pudding made it a per-
fect nish to an Easter dinner. So of course
I had to learn how to make it myself. I in
no way pretend that this is a traditional
recipe. But it is inspired by what I tasted
that day. And it is delicious.
ORANGE-CINNAMON COCONUT
PUDDING (TEMBLEQUE)
Start to nish: 2 hours 20 minutes (20
minutes active)
Servings: 6
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, divided
1/2 cup cornstarch
Two 13 1/2-ounce cans coconut milk
Zest of 1 medium orange
Pinch salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
In a medium saucepan, whisk together
1/2 cup of the sugar and the cornstarch.
Whisk in the coconut milk, orange zest and
salt, then set over medium-high heat.
Whisk until simmering and thickened. Pour
the pudding into a 9-by-9-inch baking dish
or individual ramekins.
In a small bowl or cup, mix together the
remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar with the
cinnamon. Sprinkle the mixture over the
pudding, then cover and refrigerate until set
and completely chilled, about 2 hours.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Asparagus has been a delicious
symbol of spring since at least as
far back as the Greeks, who called
it asparagos literally, to
spring up. But however it is
spelled, it makes me happy.
Most grocers sell asparagus in a
range of sizes, from thin and wil-
lowy to thick and stocky.
Whatever the size, look for stalks
that are rm and smooth from top
to bottom, with tight, un-feathery
tips. Also check that the grocer
stored it properly, because aspara-
gus is quite perishable. It should
be stored stem down in ice or a bit
of water.
Once you get the asparagus
home, arrange the stalks standing
on their bottoms in a glass jar
lled with 1/2 inch of water, or in
a zip-close plastic bag with damp
paper towel wrapped around the
bottoms of the stems. And try to
eat your beautiful asparagus with-
in a day or two of purchase, when
its still at its peak of freshness.
When it comes to prepping
asparagus, I have one rule: If the
stem is more than 1/3 inch thick,
it must be peeled. Doing so
ensures the spear will cook even-
l y. If you dont peel it, youll
overcook the tip before the stem
becomes tender. Another reason to
lose the peel on a thick stalk is
that its tough.
If, however, it strikes you as
wasteful to lose those peels, you
can gather them up (along with the
tough bottoms of the stalks,
which you also need to discard)
and simmer them in chicken or
vegetable broth to make a clear
and avorful asparagus soup.
Once prepped, there are any
number of delicious ways to cook
asparagus. To start, theres the old
tried and true briey boiling or
steaming the spears, then topping
them with butter or vinaigrette.
Simple and wonderful. It also can
be grilled, broiled or roasted at
high heat, all of which amplify its
natural sugars. By the way, I think
it is asparagus natural sweetness
that persuades usually veggie-
averse children to make an excep-
tion.
In this case, though, Ive moved
asparagus from the side to the cen-
ter of the plate in the form of a
one-pot Asian main course. Youll
want to have all the ingredients
prepped and lined up on the count-
er before you start because once
you get rolling everything goes
into the pan very quickly. The
actual cooking time is scarcely 10
minutes.
You begin by pan-searing the
raw spears in a hot pan to get a lit-
tle color on them, adding shiitake
mushrooms and shrimp, then a-
voring it all with ginger, garlic,
chili slices and oyster sauce. Serve
it with a side of brown rice or your
favorite whole grain and youre
good to go.

NEW YORK When Amy Kritzer was
growing up in Connecticut, her mother
made lasagna from matzo each Passover.
The holiday, which commemorates the
end of slavery for the Hebrews in ancient
Egypt, calls for Jews to avoid leavened
grain in products like regular pasta and
bread, so its matzos biggest moment of
the year. But lasagna?
We almost never ate lasagna the rest of
the year, Kritzer, 31, laughed. I was sure I
could live without it that one week. But it
was like a little challenge, what to do with
the matzo.
In recent years, matzo has undergone a
makeover as the people who churn it out
by hand or machine and the people who
eat it have come up with new recipes and a-
vors for the large cracker with a big place at
the Seder table but a bad rep in the taste
department.
It turns out its a pretty darn good can-
vas, said Lucinda Scala Quinn, executive
editorial director of food at Martha Stewart
Living, where the companys test kitchen
has been coming up with new ways to use
matzo. We live in an age where everybody,
it seems, is an inventive cook. Matzo has
been this undiscovered ingredient waiting
to be used beyond just kind of breaking it at
the Seder, she said.
This year, Passover begins the evening of
April 14, and at Kritzers house in Austin,
Texas, where she often hosts Seders, matzo
has some new buddies.
Ironically, all of my non-Jewish friends
love matzo, said Kritzer, who has a recipe
blog called Whatjewwannaeat. I think
because they dont have to eat it, theyre
like, Matzo, its delicious. And all of the
Jews are like, What, I dont want to eat
this.
In addition to boxed matzo, from onion-
poppy to chocolate-covered, we now have
Matzolah, a commercial matzo granola that
was 35 years in the making in Wayne
Silvermans kitchen.
He put it on the market last year, after
selling it in stores briey over a decade ago,
and earned accolades at Kosherfest, an annu-
al showcase for kosher foods. Theres maple
nut, whole wheat maple nut and gluten-free
cranberry orange.
When a Jewish person sees matzo
they say, Oy, matzo. Dry, sticks to the
roof of my mouth. And when they see a
product for Passover they say, Oy,
Passover. Even worse. Weve tried to
get people away from that notion, said
Silverman, in Decatur, Ga.
He chose The Trail Mix of the Exodus as
Matzolahs slogan.
Doug Freilich of Middletown Springs,
Vt., makes small batches of artisanal
matzah he calls Vermatzah. He started pro-
duction about six years ago with help from
his wife and two daughters. He makes his
matzo in the more traditional round shape
using grain he grows and grinds himself,
then pops it into his wood-red oven and
wraps it in parchment paper with a delicate
tie before gently placing six pieces in metal
tins of bright green, red and yellow.
Freilich sells online and ships around the
country, also using simple cardboard boxes.
Sisterhoods at synagogues like his matzo,
as do customers at food co-ops around the
Northeast.
We want to stay small and sustainable
and really hold on to that quality, he said,
noting that his matzo is eco-kosher but
does not meet the stricter kosher rules for
Passover.
The DIYers are in full force on the matzo
front. Theyre going online to show off
chocolate-dribbled matzo smores, matzo
melted cheese sandwiches, matzo brei cup-
cakes (named for a matzo-egg dish) and
matzo napkin rings made of color-copied
prints of the real thing.
Taking a cue from gingerbread houses,
matzo houses incorporate traditional
Passover treats as decorations and choco-
late as mortar. Other matzo creations
include nutty, fruity brittles and barks in
chocolate and caramel, matzo-layered ice
cream cakes, toasted matzo crumbles on sal-
Its not just your grandmothers matzo anymore

Paid Advertisment
2 teaspoons minced garlic
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
1 small red or green chili, such as a
jalapeno or serrano, seeds and ribs discard-
ed if desired, thinly sliced
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 tablespoon cornstarch
Cooked brown rice, to serve
If the asparagus stalks are very thick,
use a vegetable peeler to shave off the
thick skins starting just below the tip and
down to the bottom. Cut the stalks into
angled 1/2-inch pieces.
In a large skillet over high, heat 1 table-
spoon of the oil. When the oil is almost
smoking, add all of the asparagus and a
pinch of salt. Reduce the heat to medium-
high and saute the asparagus, stirring,
until it is crisp tender and golden at some
of the edges, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the
asparagus to a bowl and set aside.
Return the skillet to the heat and add
another tablespoon of the oil, the shi-
itakes and a pinch of salt. Reduce the heat
to medium and saute the mushrooms, stir-
ring, until they are barely tender and gold-
en around some of the edges, about 3 min-
utes. Transfer the shiitakes to the bowl
with the asparagus.
Return the skillet to the heat and add the
remaining tablespoon of the oil and the
shrimp. Saute the shrimp, stirring, for 2
minutes. Add the garlic, ginger and chili
and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
In a bowl whisk together the broth, oys-
ter sauce and cornstarch. Add the mixture
to the skillet, whisking, and bring to a
boil.
Return the asparagus and the mushrooms
to the skillet and simmer for 1 minute. To
serve, spoon a mound of rice onto each of
4 plates, then top with a quarter of the
asparagus and shrimp mixture.

ads and matzo-crusted chicken cutlets.
Quinn likes spreading herb, spiced or
lemon zest-infused olive oil on matzo,
then baking it, or giving the oil as a
Passover gift in a fancy bottle. Matzo-
themed kitchen timers, aprons and iPhone
cases are abundant.
Theres been quite a bit of movement in
the matzo, observed Menachem
Lubinsky, Koshertoday.com editor and co-
producer of Kosherfest, an event he helped
found 25 years ago. I think the skys the
limit here. The opportunities are enor-
mous. Kosherfest is scheduled to take
place in November in New Jersey this
year. Last year, it featured about 11 flavors
of matzo, he said.
With only two major mass manufacturers
of matzo left in the U.S., Manischewitz in
Newark, N.J., and family-owned Streits
on the Lower East Side of Manhattan,
American box matzo has lost ground to
imports, primarily from Israel, Lubinsky
said. More traditional, round and extra
crispy handmade matzo especially
shmura made of a carefully guarded
grain, is also popular.
Lubinsky and others see increasing
interest in matzo among non-Jews, and
from Jews year-round. We do just as much
matzo during the year as we do for
Passover. It wasnt always that way. It used
to be probably 80 percent Passover, 20
percent daily, said Aaron Gross, in the
fifth generation of the Streit family.
The U.S. matzo market is worth about
$86 million a year and the Israeli market
more than $100 million, Lubinsky esti-
mated.
Even old-school matzo makers like
Streits offer a variety year-round
including whole wheat and Mediterranean,
with sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, basil and
olive oil.
But the company sticks closer to basics
for Passover, adhering to special proce-
dures that include thorough cleanings of
the nearly century-old factory, a six-story
plant in a string of old tenements.
Equipment is scrubbed again and again
between batches, and the matzo must bake
within 18 minutes once the water and
wheat are mixed all under rabbinical
supervision.
Streits produces 2,000 pounds of
kosher-for-Passover matzo an hour
between September and two weeks before
the holiday begins. Its just a very
painstaking, long, labor-intensive
process, and weve been doing it the same
way all these years, said Gross, who runs
the plant with two cousins.
They say the most difficult things to
make are with the fewest ingredients, he
added. You cant get much fewer than flour
and water, right?

edge farther from you. Starting at the edge
closest to you, roll the dough up into a log.
Pinch the dough along the seam to seal it.
Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into 1-
inch-wide rounds. Arrange the rounds on the
prepared baking sheet, then cover loosely
with plastic wrap. Allow to rise for 30 min-
utes, or until puffy. After 15 minutes, heat
the oven to 350 F.
When the buns have risen, uncover and
bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden
brown and cooked through. The internal
temperature of the buns should read 185 F.
Allow to cool slightly before icing.
To make the icing, in a small bowl whisk
together the lemon juice and powdered
sugar. Drizzle over the tops of the buns.
Serve warm or at room temperature.

Subway said it considered for the flatbread-
pizza include Flatini, Cristada and
Crustini.
We have a little fun with language,
Pace noted. He said he championed
Flatizza as the moniker because it makes
the customer imagine someone with an
Italian accent.
Italian is a romance language. Theres a
certain lilt to the language, and Flatizza
fits into that, he said.
So what exactly is a Flatizza? Its essen-
tially a toasted pizza made with ingredients
Subway already has in its stores, including
a flatbread thats used for its breakfast
sandwiches. The only extra item needed is
the square boxes the Flatizzas come in.
Subway said the Flatizza will replace the
round, personal pies offered at many of its
26,600 U.S. stores, but its ultimately up
to franchisees to decide whether they want
to switch. Not all do at least one store in
New York City had signs promoting the
round, personal pies on Friday.

clearly had a very strong afnity for
cats that I hadnt realized until I got to
work with them a lot, then I realized I
just love everything feline.
Kittens arent usually ready for adop-
tion until they can be spayed or
neutered around 12 weeks old. The kit-
tens she fosters come to her around 9
days to 2 weeks old and are at a critical
stage in their lives as they cant feed
on their own and their immune sys-
tems are weak, the El Granada resident
said.
Most of the kittens she sees would
have a very high mortality rate if they
didnt have their mother and werent
cared for, Beavis said.
I was just able to nd the good in
what I was doing even if they werent
surviving I gave them the best
chance I possibly could, Beavis said.
I was just able to nd it within myself
to give myself to love them and take
care of them and just be accepting that
sometimes I couldnt fight with
nature.
But the PHS couldnt ask for a better
foster parent and of the 100 to 150 kit-
tens that need fostering each year,
Beavis takes anywhere from 40 to 80,
said PHS spokesman Scott Delucchi.
[Fostering is] a bridge, its a life-
saving bridge for these animals. We
know we will have homes for them, but
we need to get them to that 10 to 11
weeks. It takes a special person
because they do get attached to the ani-
mals, Delucchi said. The interesting
thing about Dawn is its only hap-
pened twice out of 378, so shes what
we consider the ideal foster parent.
With kitten season here, Beavis is
expected to hit the 400 mark before it
ends in the summer. Her two cats prob-
ably wouldnt have been able to be
adopted due to health concerns and she
just couldnt let them go, Beavis said.
The PHS has about 60 wonderful fos-
ter parents, half foster cats and the oth-
ers dogs, Beavis said.
Being a foster parent is extremely
rewarding because you as an individ-
ual can make a huge difference in an
animals life, Beavis said.
But being a foster parent certainly
isnt all fun and games, theres hard
work and commitment behind it,
Delucchi said.
Im not halfway joking, but
Mothers Day is around the corner and
[Beavis] is a good candidate for mom
of the year, Delucchi said. Its messy
work and again, people think about
cuddling and that the kittens are so cute
and watching them play and thats part
of it but theres also the messy end
of it.
Shes currently nurturing 5-week-old
April and on Thursday she took three
more 9- or 10-day-old kittens, Beavis
said.
Being a foster parent isnt just play-
ing with the fuzzy felines, Beavis said.
It includes late night and early morn-
ing feedings by bottle and syringe
from ve to eight times a day before
the kittens can eat on their own.
Beavis said she also rubs their bellies
with a warm cloth to help them go to
the bathroom, often on her, until
theyre able to use the litter box. Once
theyre about 6 weeks and a little more
stable, thats when she gets a few
weeks of playtime before giving them
up for adoption, Beavis said.
Now that the PHS has opened its new
kitten nursery, many that are more
than 3 weeks old will be able to stay
on site. But those that require more
24/7 help will continue to go with fos-
ter parents, Beavis said.
The rst cat she fostered was a stray
named Hissy who couldnt be adopted
because she hadnt been socialized
with humans and wouldnt let anyone
touch her, Beavis sad.
Cats naturally need to be around
people to like them, otherwise theyre
scared, Beavis said. Theres a really
important period in a cats life between
2 weeks and 7 weeks called a sensitive
period. If they are not exposed to peo-
ple early on, if theyre not, and just
left to their own devices living in the
wild, theyll just become feral.
Although she cried when Hissy was
nally adopted, shes always happy to
see her foster kittens go where theyre
wanted, Beavis said.
[Now] its really easy to let them go
because I send them off to good homes
so its no longer hard to part with
them. And Im also an adoption coun-
selor there so I also have a level of
input of where they go to, Beavis
said.
Shes become so intrigued by cats
shes completing a cat behaviorist
program and helps with the PHS
behavior hotline, Beavis said.
Im not a crazy cat person. Im quite
normal. I like them, theyre cute,
theyre funny, but their science became
really interesting, their behavior
became really interesting. Im warm
and fuzzy with them, but I just nd
them fascinating creatures, Beavis
said. [Fostering] doesnt feel like
such a big commitment to me anymore
because Ive done it for almost seven
years, because its such an integral part
of my life its just something I do
now. Its actually weird when I dont
have kittens.

KITTENS
Speller, English teacher at Baden High
School, who is president and bargain-
ing chair for the union. Its somewhat
of a relief. Were spending $2,000 in
out-of-pocket costs every month. Add
that to no salary increases since 2009
and it costs us more and more to keep
working for the district.
The average salary for teachers in the
district is $68,125, according to
Patricia Ernsberger, the districts
assistant superintendent for Business
Services.
The union plans to re-engage the dis-
trict next year about fringe benet s,
Speller said. The increase is a $200
monthly increase from $601.65 to
$801.65 monthly for each of the two
years, 2014-15 and 2015-16, she said.
After July 2016, the districts contri-
bution to our health care would return
to $601.65 monthly unless the union
successfully bargains an increase in
fringe benets before July 2016, she
said.
Were excited we were able to pro-
vide some relief, Speller said. The
district recognized our extreme sacri-
ce. The district was very eager to
settle with us this year. We only met
two and half days. We still have issues
on the table about a new evaluation.
The district is happy with the agree-
ment as well, said Superintendent
Alejandro Hogan.
Its a fair agreement and I think we
are very satised we were able to offer
this to our teachers, he said.
The union expects the deal to be
nalized in May, Speller said. The new
contract would be effective July 1 and
the two parties still have to nish up a
couple of language items, Hogan said.
The next negotiations meeting is May
7, then its up for ratication by the
teachers union. It could make it to the
board meeting for approval May 22,
he said.
Meanwhile, since the agreement is
still tentative, board President Maurice
Goodman said out of respect for the
process and all parties involved he
doesnt want to comment at this time.

BOSTON Survivors, rst
responders and relatives of those
killed in the Boston Marathon
bombing marked the anniversary
Tuesday with tributes that com-
bined sorrow over the loss of inno-
cent victims with pride over the
citys resilience in the face of a ter-
ror attack.
This day will always be hard, but
this place will always be strong,
former Mayor Thomas Menino told
an invitation-only audience of
about 2,500 people at the Hynes
Convention Center, not far from
the nish line where three people
died and more than 260 others were
injured a year ago.
Vice President Joe Biden, who
attended the ceremony, said the
courage shown by survivors and
those who lost loved ones is an
inspiration for other Americans
dealing with loss and tragedy.
You have become the face of
Americas resolve, he said.
Biden also praised the 36,000
runners who plan to run the
marathon next week, saying they
will send a message to terrorists.
America will never, ever, ever
stand down, he said, to loud
applause. He added, We own the
nish line.
In the evening, after the tributes
were over and most people had left,
police evacuated the area around the
nish line to investigate two unat-
tended backpacks and took a man
into custody. They said the bomb
squad detonated the backpacks as a
precaution, but there was no imme-
diate word on what was in them.
In Washington, President Barack
Obama observed the anniversary of
last years deadly marathon attack
with a private moment of silence at
the White House.
Today, we recognize the incredi-
ble courage and leadership of so
many Bostonians in the wake of
unspeakable tragedy, Obama said
in a statement. And we offer our
deepest gratitude to the courageous
reghters, police ofcers, medical
professionals, runners and specta-
tors who, in an instant, displayed
the spirit Boston was built on
perseverance, freedom and love.
Solemn tributes mark Boston Marathon bombing

WASHINGTON People with
old Social Security debts are get-
ting a reprieve for now.
The Social Security
Administration had been partici-
pating in a program in which
thousands of people were having
their tax refunds seized to recoup
overpayments that happened more
than a decade ago.
On Monday, Acting Social
Security Commissioner Carolyn
W. Colvin said she was suspend-
ing the program while the agency
conducts a review.
Social Security recipients and
members of Congress com-
plained that people were being
forced to repay overpayments
that were sometimes paid to
their parents or guardians when
they were children.
The Social Security
Administration says it has identi-
ed about 400,000 people with
old debts. They owe a total of
$714 million.
So far, the agency says it has
collected $55 million, mainly by
having the Treasury Department
seize tax refunds.
Colvin said she was suspending
the program pending a thorough
review of our responsibility and
discretion under the current law to
refer debt to the Treasury
Department.
If any Social Security or
Supplemental Security Income
beneficiary believes they have
been incorrectly assessed with
an overpayment under this pro-
gram, I encourage them to
request an explanation or seek
options to resolve the overpay-
ment, Colvin said.
The program was authorized by a
2008 change in the law that
allows Social Security and other
federal agencies, through the
Treasury, to seize federal pay-
ments to recoup debts that are
more than 10 years old.
Previously, there was a 10-year
limit on using the program.
In most cases, the seizures are
tax refunds.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KRAMATORSK, Ukraine In the first
Ukrainian military action against a pro-
Russian uprising in the east, government
forces repelled an attack Tuesday by about
30 gunmen at an airport, beginning what
the president called an anti-terrorist oper-
ation to try to restore authority over the
restive region.
The central government has so far been
unable to rein in the insurgents, who it
says are being stirred up by paid operatives
from Russia and have seized numerous gov-
ernment facilities in at least nine eastern
cities to press their demands for broader
autonomy and closer ties with Russia.
Complicating the political landscape,
many local security forces have switched
to their side.
The clashes Tuesday came at Kramatorsk
airport, just south of the city of
Slovyansk, which has come under the
increasing control of the pro-Russian gun-
men who seized it last weekend.
The precise sequence of events was mired
in confusion amid contradictory official
claims.
The commander of the Ukrainian opera-
tion, Gen. Vasyl Krutov, speaking outside
Kramatorsk airport, said his men managed
to thwart an attack by fighters in green
military uniforms without insignia who
tried to storm the facility in the late after-
noon. An Associated Press reporter and
camera crew heard rounds of gunfire at the
time.
After the armed standoff, hundreds of
local people surrounded the airport in
response to rumors that government
troops were planning to launch a military
operation on the city of Kramatorsk itself.
Some in the crowd attempted to enter the
military facility, prompting Ukrainian
troops to fire bursts of warning shots.
In an attempt to defuse the situation,
Gen. Krutov came out to speak to the angry
protesters but was attacked by them. After
a tussle in which his hat was knocked to
the ground, he managed to take refuge in
the airport.
Ukraine bares teeth against eastern uprising
By Julie Pace
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON With the White House
asserting that Russia is stoking instability
in eastern Ukraine, President Barack
Obama is once again faced with the compli-
cated reality of following through on his
tough warnings against overseas provoca-
tions.
Obama has vowed repeatedly to enact bit-
ing sanctions against Russias vital eco-
nomic sectors if the Kremlin tries to repli-
cate its actions in Crimea, the peninsula it
annexed from Ukraine, elsewhere in the
former Soviet republic. Despite those
warnings, Russian President Vladimir Putin
appears to be testing Obamas limits, insti-
gating protests in eastern Ukraine, the
White House says, and massing tens of
thousands of troops on the border, but so
far stopping short of a full-scale military
incursion.
They have been willing to do things to
provoke the situation that no one antici-
pated, Matthew Rojansky, a Russia ana-
lyst at the Wilson Center, said of Russia.
Its such a high-stakes, high-risk situa-
tion, and here they are right in the middle
of it.
For Obama, the U.S. response to the
chaos in Ukraine has become more than a
test of his ability to stop Russias
advances. Its also being viewed through
the prism of his decision last summer to
back away from his threat to launch a mili-
tary strike when Syria crossed his chemical
weapons red line a decision that has
fed into a narrative pushed by Obamas crit-
ics that the president talks tough, but does-
nt follow through.
While there has been no talk of red
lines when dealing with Putin, Obama has
said repeatedly that the Kremlins advances
into eastern Ukraine would be a serious
escalation of the conict that would war-
rant broad international sanctions on the
Russian economy. But perhaps trying to
avoid another Syria scenario, White House
officials have carefully avoided defining
what exactly would meet Obamas deni-
tion of a serious escalation, even as they
make clear that they believe Russia is
fomenting the violence in cities through-
out Ukraines vital industrial east.
We are actively evaluating what is hap-
pening in eastern Ukraine, what actions
Russia has taken, what transgressions
theyve engaged in, White House
spokesman Jay Carney said Monday. And
we are working with our partners and
assessing for ourselves what response we
may choose.
