Housing crisis dominates town hall

Redwood City Council hears residents concerns
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The Redwood City Council heard

repeatedly at a town hall meeting that
the citys lack of affordable housing is
pushing out longtime residents who
cannot afford sky-high rent increases.
Other residents decried downtowns

others in the pipeline. Some called for
the city to tear up the Downtown

Theres not enough water, theres

Lady Bulldogs close
regular season with
mercy-rule victory

The search for a leader who will

steer the San Mateo County Harbor
District in a positive direction is
proving as rocky as the organization itself as two candidates have
backed out and officials must
replace their interim general manager who no longer wants the
position.
The special district, which oversees Pillar Point Harbor in Half
Moon Bay and Oyster Point
Marina/Park in South San
Francisco, has undergone significant change the last few months
having lost its former longtime
general manager Peter Grenell and
swearing in two new harbor commissioners.
The organization has also been
under scrutiny as the focus of a
recent San Mateo County Civil
Grand Jury report suggesting dissolution and the countys Local
Area Formation Commission, or
LAFCo, preparing to make a recommendation on whether the district is operating efficiently or if
its duties should be absorbed elsewhere.
With current Interim General
Manager Scott Grindy eager to
return to his post as harbormaster

Burglars hit skate shop twice

Atlas owner promotes safety in downtown San Mateo
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A downtown San Mateo merchant and

leader of a local business district who was
the victim of two burglaries is asking the
public to help him apprehend a group of
criminals.
Ryen Motzek, vice president of the
Downtown San Mateo Association and
owner of Atlas skate and clothing store, is
offering a $2,500 reward for information
leading to the arrest of the burglars who targeted his shop twice in one week.
Alarm and video surveillance systems
caught the burglars breaking in to the store
at 209 Second Ave. around 2:20 a.m. April
14 and again around 3:49 a.m. April 20.
Motzek sustained nearly $3,000 in damage and the burglars took off with clothing
and sunglasses, according to San Mateo
police.
Motzek said he made a social media post
asking for help in identifying the burglars
and was astonished to see overwhelming
support for his local business that promotes
community and skate culture.
While some may jump to conclusions and
assume a group of rowdy skaters must have
been the culprits, Motzek, 35, said hes
confident thats not the case. During the
strikingly similar crimes, the burglars only
stole clothing and didnt touch the skateboards lining a wall of the shop.
I really firmly believe this is not skateboarders. Skateboarding is like a brotherhood and you dont do this stuff, Motzek.
Were really, really huge on community
building. Were a friendly, nice small business that has kind of a nationwide presence
and I just feel that skateboarding gets a pretty [bad] rep because its quote unquote a
rebel sport; and weve done everything to
break that mode and do something
respectable.
Motzek said he invested in equipping his
store with video cameras inside and out.
During the first burglary, one suspect can
be seen on video throwing a rock at the tempered glass door before another joined in to
kick the door down then quickly steal cloth-

The door and window of San Mateos Atlas

skate shop had to be boarded up after being
burglarized twice in one week.
ing. A week later with the front door boarded up, the store was entered by smashing a
window and similar products were stolen,
Motzek said.
Motzek, who sells pricey brand name
apparel and his own clothing line, said hes
not sure that others in downtown are necessarily subject to similar crimes, particularly
as there is more of a restaurant presence than
an abundance of retail.
Although Atlas has been victim to previous burglaries, Motzek said hes fairly sure
this is the same group of people and hopes
police will start taking more active measures to deter criminals.
From my impression, I dont look at
downtown San Mateo as a place where people need to all of a sudden worry, Motzek
said. But I do think it would be nice for a
simple, small downtown to have some reinforcements for something like this.
Motzek said hed prefer to see cameras
installed at prime downtown entrances.

State lawmaker optimistic

about vaccine bill advancing
By Judy Lin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO A California lawmaker

who is proposing to limit the number of
schoolchildren who are exempt from being
vaccinated said Tuesday that hes optimistic
the bill will advance after a vote was delayed
one week.
Sen. Richard Pan, a Democratic pediatrician from Sacramento, said he and
Democratic Sen. Ben Allen, a former school
board member, have made changes after members of the Senate Education Committee worried it would deprive unvaccinated children
from receiving an adequate education.
The amendments allow families that opt
out of vaccines to homeschool their children
together and let students seek independent
study.
I believe the amendments will satisfy
many concerns of my colleagues, Pan said,
standing with polio survivors in front of iron
lung ventilators, in a video statement. Im

Gov. Brown captures

snake on trip to rural California
WILLIAMS Gov. Jerry Brown has
received hundreds of comments and shares
of a photo showing him posing with a
snake.
The photo posted on Browns Twitter and
Facebook pages over the weekend shows
Brown, dressed casually, holding a stick to
the head of a snake.
A spokesman for the governor, Evan

optimistic that were going to get the bill out

tomorrow.
The proposal would eliminate Californias
personal belief and religious exemptions so
unvaccinated children would not be able to
send attend public or private schools.
Medical waivers would only be available for
children with health problems.
Although the measure has broad support
from medical, education and public health
groups, opponents have flooded the Capitol
to testify at recent hearings and prompted
extra security for lawmakers.
The committee is scheduled to vote
Wednesday, after one lawmaker was replaced
and another was added in recent days.
Democratic
leadership
removed
Republican Minority Leader Bob Huff, an
opponent of the bill, and replaced him with
Sen. Sharon Runner, R-Lancaster. Runner
said she has not decided how she will vote.
The majority party also appointed Sen.
Bill Monning, D-Carmel, who had voted for
the bill when it was heard in the health committee.

Around the state

Westrup, said the photo was taken by
Browns wife, Anne Gust Brown, just outside Williams in Colusa County. The governor owns rural property there.
The caption posted with it reads: Out
here, you never know what youll run into.
#AnnesNotFondOfRattlesnakes.
When asked if the snake was dead or alive,
Westrup responded with a quote in Latin that
translates to the thing speaks for itself.

Police Chief Susan Manheimer previously

said shed like to see license plate readers at
key intersections throughout the city.
Its not there to be big brother, its there
to catch criminals, Motzek suggested,
while acknowledging the publics privacy
concerns.
San Mateo police Sgt. Rick Decker said
downtown burglaries arent overtly common as its well lit and often populated until
3 a.m. or 4 a.m. Still, Decker said the
department is interested in advocating for
more surveillance systems and is working
with the city to set up cameras in downtown
parking garages.
Ideally, we would like to have close-circuit camera surveillance of the downtown
area. Weve had discussions of expanding
[automated-license plate readers] but obviously theres a lot of hurdles. Especially
being a hot topic as it is. But certainly wed
be supportive of any additional surveillance
cameras, Decker said.
As a leading member of the Downtown
San Mateo Association, Motzek said hes
helped with the organizations rebranding
campaign and promoting a clean, safe
downtown.
Motzek said he doesnt want to deter other
merchants from downtown and, although
his shop was targeted, doesnt want it to
negatively impact the skateboarding community.
My biggest effort is to bring some focus
and refinement to downtown San Mateo,
Motzek said. And we dont want to have
skate shops get a reputation that were
attracting this type of energy. And Im
almost certain that the guys that did this
arent skateboarders.
Any one with information about the Atlas
burglaries is ask ed to contact San Mateo
police at (650) 522-7700.

DEA chief to retire amid
pressure over agents sex scandal
WASHINGTON The embattled head of the Drug
Enforcement Administration said Tuesday that she plans to
retire after three decades with the agency,
an announcement that came amid mounting pressure for her resignation from
members of Congress who questioned her
handling of misconduct allegations
against agents.
Michele Leonhart, a career drug agent
who has led the agency since 2007 and
was the second woman to hold the job, had
been widely criticized for her response to
Michele
a scathing government watchdog report
Leonhart
detailing allegations that agents attended
sex parties with prostitutes in a foreign country.
After Leonhart appeared last week before the House
Oversight Committee to respond to an inspector generals
allegations that the agents had received lenient punishments,
most lawmakers on the panel announced that they had lost
confidence in her. She also was criticized as being woefully
unable to change the agencys culture.

Ruling forces state water

districts to review rates
By Brian Melley and Fenit Nirappil
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES An appeals court

decision striking down punitive water
pricing that was intended to encourage
conservation had water agencies
reviewing rates Tuesday and some residents exploring whether to bring similar challenges.
The ruling Monday that found San
Juan Capistranos water rates unconstitutional came amid a severe drought
as agencies try to meet the governors
mandate to cut water use statewide by
25 percent.
The 4th District Court of Appeal said
charging heavy users incrementally
more per gallon without showing it
cost more violated a 1996 voter-

approved law that prohibits government agencies from overcharging for

services.
The decision that Gov. Jerry Brown
said puts a straitjacket on local government makes it harder for cities to
adopt similar billings and may bring
down some of the higher rates, said
Ken Baerenklau, an associate professor at the University of California,
Riverside who has studied tiered water
rates.
Water departments are being pulled
in different directions by Browns
administration that demanded hitting
residents in the pocketbook to save
water and the legal uncertainty of
charging guzzlers higher rates.
If you have courts telling you one
thing and the governor telling you

something else, maybe thats a reason

to sit tight, he said.
Tim Quinn, executive director of the
Association of California Water
Agencies, said the ruling would be a
significant concern to water managers
across the state if it hampers agencies
from using rates to promote conservation.
State regulators are still trying to
figure how to direct local water departments to charge customers in a way
that encourages saving water and is
legal.
Max Gomberg, a State Water
Resources Control Board scientist,
said the agency will address water rates
after it finishes setting mandatory
water reduction targets for communities in early May.

Same-sex marriage opponents

urge Supreme Court to go slow
WASHINGTON Same-sex marriage opponents acknowledge they face a tough task in trying to persuade the Supreme
Court to allow states to limit marriage to a man and a woman.
But they are urging the court to resist embracing what they
see as a radical change in societys view of what constitutes a
marriage, especially without more information about how
same-sex marriage affects children who are raised by two
fathers or two mothers.
The idea that same-sex marriage might have uncertain
effects on children is strongly contested by those who want
the court to declare that same-sex couples have a right to
marry in all 50 states. Among the 31 plaintiffs in the cases
that will be argued at the court on April 28 are parents who
have spent years seeking formal recognition on their childrens birth certificates or adoption papers.

California officials propose higher rates for some

SAN FRANCISCO Electricity rates would go up for many
California households under a new proposal going before
state regulators.
The proposal by administrative law judges would overhaul a
rate structure that charges less for households using less electricity.
California has been giving cost breaks to energy-thrifty
households since the 2000-01 energy crisis.
Proponents say its time to make everyone pay prices that
are more in line with the actual cost of electricity. Public
Utility Commission members must decide now whether to
approve the rate-structure changes.

Legal pot in California? Taxes,

black market pose challenges
By Michael R. Blood
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES Legalizing marijuana for recreational use in California

would raise an array of unknowns,
from how it would be taxed to the
threat of environmental damage from
thirsty pot plants in a state gripped by
drought, a commission was told
Tuesday.
As activists move to bring a proposal legalizing pot use to voters in 2016,
the panel headed by Lt. Gov. Gavin
Newsom began considering how a
state of 39 million people would
change with once-outlawed pot consumption becoming a legal, and
potentially widespread, practice.
What was clear is no one knows.
Even Newsom, a Democratic candidate for governor in 2018 who supports legalization, acknowledged he
has concerns. The former San
Francisco mayor is aligning himself
with an issue that polls show has
gained growing acceptance in the
state, but promoting the loosening of
marijuana laws also comes with
inevitable political risks for a future
campaign.

City seeks developer

partner for new City Hall
Burlingame officials finalized its
wishes to ask a developer to construct
a new City Hall on a downtown public
parking lot in exchange for title on the
current property at 501 Primrose Road,
which is zoned for high-density, multifamily development, according to the
city.
The city released a request for proposals last Friday for the plan which
would increase housing downtown
while eliminating the need to retrofit
the current City Hall site. A city report
revealed that there is $11.5 million in
needed seismic improvements and the
removal of asbestos. The city owns 20
parking lots downtown, according to
the city.
We are looking for a public-private
partnership that will enable us to have
a City Hall, that will allow us to better
serve the public, because that is our
ultimate goal, City Manager Lisa
Goldman said in February.
Staff has already issued a request for
proposals from developers willing to
build more affordable housing on a
city-owned parking lot south of
Howard Avenue, so long as the company would also be willing to construct
more parking spaces on a neighboring
lot.

Belmont bicyclist talking on

phone injured by car on Ralston
A bicyclist was injured in Belmont
Saturday when he crashed into a driver
who turned in front of him on Ralston
Avenue.
The 29-year-old Belmont man wasnt wearing a helmet and was talking
on his cellphone as he rode east around
1:40 p. m. , according to Belmont
police. While the cause of the collision is still under investigation, it
appears a 90-year-old woman driving
west on Ralston Avenue turned onto
Chula Vista Drive and into the path of
the bicyclist, according to Belmont
police.
The bicyclist was found lying on the
ground and treated by first responders
at the scene before being transported
to the hospital for injuries that were
not life threatening. The driver was
not injured, according to police.
Although state cellphone laws
specifically apply to motor vehicles,
police remind cyclists to drive defensively and that talking on a phone or
carrying packages and bags can reduce

There are a lot of questions that do

need to be asked, and a lot of questions
that do need to be answered, I believe,
before we put something on the ballot.
Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom

Newsom told the group it was time

for the state to move in a new direction, lamenting a drug war that had
fallen short of its goals. At other
points, he worried about a black market that could bloom if taxes drive buyers underground and the safety of children, including his own. He worried
about advertising and its effect of
youngsters, and the spread of availability.
There are a lot of questions that do
need to be asked, and a lot of questions
that do need to be answered, I believe,
before we put something on the ballot, he said. I dont want to ... walk
to the playground with my kids and
smell it.
Activists have been promising to
qualify a ballot proposal for 2016
that, if enacted, would legalize recreational use, following Colorado,

Washington state, Oregon and Alaska.

Medical marijuana is legal in
California and more than 20 other
states. The drug remains illegal under
federal law.
Among California Democrats, positions are mixed. Gov. Jerry Brown
opposes legalization.
For candidate Newsom, he has to be
aware of the inevitable downside of
legalization,
said
Claremont
McKenna College political scientist
Jack Pitney, alluding to the potential
for higher crime, car accidents or
health issues that could come with
broader use.
Even though polls show there is
increasing support for legalization,
there is still a lot of resistance, particularly among older voters. And older
voters make up a disproportionate
share of the electorate, Pitney added.

stop leads to arrest of
man on DMVs DUI hot list
Police in South San Francisco said
they arrested a man late Friday night,
who they said was on the Department
of Motor Vehicles DUI Hot List, a
list of drivers with repeat offenses
related to driving under the influence.
An officer stopped a vehicle at about
11:45 p.m. near Hickey Boulevard and
Camaritas Avenue for an equipment
violation, police said.
Upon conducting the stop, the officer found that the driver, Daniel Louis
Hunt, 53, of South San Francisco, had
a suspended drivers license, according
to police. Police said they also found
Hunt to be in possession of drug paraphernalia and a substance suspected to
be methamphetamine.
Hunt had his license suspended
because of two previous DUI convictions, police said.
The two convictions placed him on
the DMVs DUI Hot List, a program
that identifies drivers with multiple
two-point driving convictions, multiple DUI convictions and/or multiple
convictions for driving with a suspended drivers license, police said.
Police arrested Hunt and towed and
impounded his vehicle.
Police said that according to studies
and research conducted by the DMV 75
percent of drivers who are convicted of
DUI continue to drive despite having a
suspended or revoked drivers license.

Jury in Boston Marathon trial sees photo of defiant Tsarnaev

By Denise Lavoie
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BOSTON First, the jury was shown

large, vibrant pictures of the four people
killed in the Boston Marathon bombing and
its aftermath. Then prosecutors pulled out
the photo they saved for last: Dzhokhar
Tsarnaev giving the finger to the security
camera in his jail cell.
This is Dzhokhar Tsarnaev unconcerned, unrepentant and unchanged, federal
prosecutor Nadine Pellegrini told the jury
that will decide whether the 21-year-old former college student should be executed.
The penalty phase in the Boston
Marathon bombers trial opened in dramatic
fashion Tuesday, with prosecutors portraying Tsarnaev as a coldblooded killer and
Americas worst nightmare.
The government then began trying to
drive home the horror of the attack by calling to the stand witnesses who lost legs or
loved ones in the April 15, 2013, bombing.
I remember hearing just bloodcurdling
screams. I just remember looking around,
just seeing blood everywhere, sort of like

debris falling from the sky, said Celeste

Corcoran, who made her way to the stand on
two artificial limbs.
Several jurors shed tears as the father of
Krystle Campbell, a 29-year-old restaurant
manager killed in the bombing, described
how he called his daughter princess.
Krystle was the light of my life, William
Campbell Jr. said, every fathers dream.
He wiped away tears with a handkerchief,
his voice growing hoarse as he described
how she wasnt really a girly-girl and preferred baseball over other activities.
Campbell described a heartbreaking mixup that led his family to believe that Krystle
had survived the bombing and was undergoing surgery. One of the doctors asked
Campbell to take a walk with him to go see
Krystle in her room.
It wasnt Krystle. I passed out on the
floor, Campbell said. I couldnt remember
anything after that until I woke up about five
minutes later and I realized that Krystle was
gone and they made a mistake.

Earlier Tuesday, prosecutors showed the
jury a photo of a wounded Krystle writhing Assistant U.S. Attorney Nadine Pellegrini speaks during the sentencing phase of the murder trial

Obama: Democratic
critics of his trade
agenda are wrong
By Charles Babington
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON President
Barack Obama hit back at fellow
Democrats who oppose his trade
initiatives Tuesday, saying they
have their facts wrong on the eve
of a key Senate vote.
The presidents blunt words
came as liberals, labor unions and
others stepped up efforts to block
his trade proposals, which they
say hurt U.S. jobs.
I would not be doing this trade
deal if I did not think it was good
for the middle class, Obama said
in an interview with MSNBC.
When you hear folks make a lot
of suggestions about how bad this
trade deal is, when you dig into the

facts, they are wrong.

Asked particularly about criticisms from Sen. Elizabeth Warren,
D-Mass. , Obama said: I love
Elizabeth. Were allies on a whole
host of issues. But shes wrong on
this.
But several top Democrats arent
backing down. Senate Minority
Leader Harry Reid of Nevada told
reporters, Im not only no, Im
hell no on Obamas bid for fasttrack authority.
The Senate Finance Committee
plans to vote Wednesday on the
fast-track measure. It would renew
presidential authority to send
Congress trade deals it can endorse
or reject, but not amend.
One such proposed pact is the
long-negotiated
Trans-Pacific
Partnership, involving the United

States and 11 other nations.
Few issues divide Democrats
more than trade. Obama, like former president Bill Clinton, supports free trade, but most
Democratic lawmakers do not.
Republicans generally support
trade pacts. But Obama cant count
on them alone to push the fiercely
debated bills through the GOPcontrolled House and Senate.
Clintons and Obamas trade
stands and liberal groups

opposition pose a dilemma for

Hillary Rodham Clinton, the former first lady now seeking the
presidency herself. Campaigning
Tuesday in New Hampshire, she
declined to say whether she supports the Pacific Rim proposal.
We need to build things, too,
Clinton said, taking a pro-manufacturing
stance
generally
embraced by both parties. We
have to do our part in making sure
we have the capabilities and skills

to be competitive, she said,

while getting back to a much
more focused effort, in my opinion, to try to produce those capacities here at home.
Meanwhile Tuesday, a Senate
Finance Committee hearing
exposed Democratic divisions.
Senators including Sherrod Brown
of Ohio and Debbie Stabenow of
Michigan reiterated concerns that
trade deals help foreign countries
more than the United States.

Obama attorney general nominee heads for vote after five months
By Erica Werner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON President
Barack Obamas long-stalled

themselves Tuesday from a partisan dispute over abortion that had

to save face on
a once-unconLoretta Lynch troversial bill
to help sextrafficking victims that had

turned into a litmus test on abortion.

Although that issue was not
connected to Lynch, Senate
Republican

her nomination vote until the
trafficking issue was resolved.
The long delay since Lynch was
nominated last fall has provoked
increasingly agitated protests

embarrassing, even though
Democrats had controlled the
Senate for part of that time and
had failed to bring her up for a

Lynch, who would become the
nations first black female attorney general, replacing Eric
Holder, is now the U.S. attorney
for the Eastern District of New

days for a vote, far longer than

most other recent attorney general nominees.

Achieving new water savings

he tiers of water users and the

mandates may be confusing
but the message is clear. We
will all have to use less water if we are
to get through this drought without
dire consequences.
The State Water Resources Control
Board proposed new tiers for conservation this weekend for all water users
in urban areas with a nalization of
the mandates sometime in May for
implementation in June. That means
lower swimming pools, crispier grass
and shorter showers for all. While
some complain that some areas are
being lumped together with others
and that the tiers are confusing
some areas have to reduce by 8 percent and others by 36 percent the
rationale is that the mandates are
based on water use last summer.
Some areas like South San
Francisco used an average of 48.8 gallons per capita while other areas like
Hillsborough used 324.5 gallons per
capita. South San Francisco water
users will have to reduce their consumption by 8 percent while those in
Hillsborough will have to reduce their

Editorial
consumption by 36 percent. That last
number seems mighty, but the town
has already conserved 25 percent
leaving it with another 11 percent to
meet the goal. It is achievable, but
will take some diligence on residents
part. And it doesnt mean just turning
off the water when youre brushing
your teeth. Real change. Landscaping
decisions. Not to point ngers at
Hillsborough, after all, lot sizes are
signicantly bigger, but it is telling
that the town is using six and half
times as much water as South San
Francisco per capita. Its time to cut
back.
However, we have full condence
the town of Hillsborough and other
cities and water districts in this area
will do their part to reduce even more.
It is possible once you get used to it.
With conservation measures already
enacted, adhering to the new states
mandates are achievable and necessary. Individual agencies will determine how best to ensure water users

conserve, with education rst, then

warnings. But the possibility of hefty
state nes is real though state ofcials say it is a last resort.
Just as education from water agencies is important, its good to keep in
mind that neighbors can help neighbors too. While confronting a neighbor is not the best avenue, it might
be good to point out ways to conserve
together.
This is a tremendous drought and it
might get worse. So while the mandates may seem arduous, they are
inherently necessary. The State Water
Resources Control Board has shown
some exibility to recognize previous conservation efforts and not place
an undue burden on any one water
user. Circumstances such as climate,
lot size, population and regular rainfall were taken into account when
deciding upon the tiers. Even areas
where cutbacks have already been
achieved still have to cut back more.
Most areas here in San Mateo County
have already achieved signicant
reduction goals, and we can do more.
In fact, we must.

Iran and a
post-fossil-fuel world
Editor,
First, Iran and the Bomb (in the
April 13 edition of the Daily

Iran and nuclear energy. Iran is looking ahead to a post-fossil-fuel
world.
The underlying problem is not
Iran, it is Israels untenable occupation of Palestinian land and oppression of the people. Israel can reach a
sustainable peace from a position of
strength now. Or at some point in
the future it will have one thrust
upon it a peace on not so favorable terms.
The letter writer seems to be presenting the party line of equivalence
with Hitler, but there is none. Iran
has no hegemonic tendencies or history.

in usage except for the farmers, but

the farmers use 80 percent of the
water. Therefore, a 25 percent reduction in the 20 percent we use
amounts to only a 5 percent reduction in total state usage. The problem with water is that it is too
cheap. Forget the fines and the water
police which will only pit neighbors against each other. Develop a
formula to allow a lifeline rate to
each household above which there
would be a tiered system with
increased rates. To be fair, homeowners are not likely to let their
expensive landscaping die for an
extra $50 a month but they may cut
back on their watering and look for
more water wise plants.
If the governor believes this is a
true emergency he should transfer
the funds being amassed for the
questionable bullet train and use
them to help farmers install more
efficient watering systems and help
them replace crops requiring significant amounts of water. Real problems require real solutions.

(Residents bemoan watering of
turfed field in San Carlos in the
April 21 edition of the Daily
Journal). I can speak from firsthand
experience what will happen if the
turf is not watered per the warranty,
which I dont think is everyday
watering.
In August of 2012, I was playing
in the San Carlos Parks and
Recreation soccer league, and I
planted my foot on turf that was
coming up at the seams. As a result,
I tore the ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) in my right knee, which
required surgery to replace. The turf
needs to be watered per the warranty
to make sure that the turf remains
intact and that we dont have
injuries occurring on a more frequent
basis. And I am sure we are not
watering the turf to the same extent
as the grass fields in San Carlos. Of
course, one could tear an ACL playing on grass, but having all-weather
turf fields is advantageous as it
allows the city to offer sports yearround and to host tournaments which
are revenue generating for soccer,
softball, etc.

e used to assume that what you do in one

place has little or no effect on what happens in another place, but now we understand that small differences in initial choices can cascade
into huge variations in ultimate consequences. Eric
Liu and Nick Hanauer, The Gardens of Democracy.
Driving from Millbrae to San Jose on Interstate 280 a
few weeks ago, we marveled at how the hills were still so
green in spite of the drought. I guess there was enough
sporadic rain to keep them from turning brown early this
year. We enjoyed the blooming trees, bushes and wild
owers. Most lawns were quite green. We surmised that
maybe that was why there
had been so little effort by
so many people to cut back
on water use. And, of
course, our governor and
government agencies still
hadnt taken the water
shortage seriously so that
people got the message
about the reality of the situation.
Shortly thereafter we
heard that one city in Marin
County has banned automatic sprinklers for two
days after a decent rain
and sprinklers can be used just three days a week. Really!
Lets hope this includes golf courses, cemeteries, parks
and other places where a verdant landscape is not essential. As Willie Brown wrote in the April 6 Chronicle:
California doesnt just have a water shortage. It has a
shortage of politicians willing to do anything substantive about it ... . [Gov.] Brown got a lot of attention with
his visit to the nonexistent snowpack in the Sierra. But
if hed been serious he would have been down in Palm
Springs calling for them to turn off the water on the golf
courses.
Have you ever thought how it would be that eventually
we could be so short of water that we might end up as one
Daily Journal letter writer described of his youth in Hong
Kong? He wrote: Imagine you had only two days a week,
one hour each day to collect water from the faucet.
Imagine you could only take sponge baths and share the
water with family members. ... Imagine breaking into a
neighbors dwelling to steal water. And he listed several
other grim consequences of water shortage that had to be
dealt with. And dont think that it could never happen
here.
Scenarios like that make Gov. Browns and some
municipal efforts to get us to cut back on water use look
ridiculous. Have you seen pictures of the unprecedented
low levels of our reservoirs and rivers? Do you realize the
effect of Californias population growth since the last
drought? Do you think that authorities will be able to
come up with some way to supply us with water should
the reservoirs dry up? Or, do you, like a lot of other people, try to put it out of your mind?
Today is Earth Day, a day dedicated to the fact that we
must not live our lives without considering what our
activities are doing to the planet and how there must be
limits to our ravenous consumption that can eventually
lead to the destruction of our environment. Its a reminder
that we arent somehow privileged characters who dont
need to worry about such things.
We can continue to follow the path (we have set for
ourselves) blocking out our feelings or frustration, anxiety and powerlessness through the isolated pursuit of
pleasure and make the predictions of doom a self-fullling prophecy. Or we can begin to transform our culture,
one on which by virtue of depending on our own
resources and nding satisfaction in them, we nd even
greater fulllment by sharing our resources with others
and concerning ourselves with the common good.
Maxine Schnall, Limits. (1981).
So lets let Earth Day remind us of how we should be
concerned with living our lives in harmony with the universe, growing and evolving, as we learn to trust our gut
feelings and intuition. Our attitude will be one of cooperation, not competition, reverence for nature and life, not
rapaciousness. We will sense our oneness with all life.
We will no longer buy into the idea that we must conquer,
subdue, destroy and exploit nature, but encourage the
understanding of and cooperation with our ecosystem.
There will be very few inroads into the environmental
dilemma until many more of us restructure our values and
learn how our consuming habits are using up our water
supply, poisoning our environment and, ultimately, ourselves. We must commemorate Earth Day every day. As I
read at Coyote Point Environmental Museum some 30
years ago: Human beings must learn again how to adapt
themselves to the natural order of the life sphere or their
inventions may carry them and all other organisms to
extinction.

NEW YORK Tepid corporate

results and another drop in the price of
crude oil pulled stocks mostly lower
on Tuesday.
Major indexes started the day slightly higher, turned lower around noon,
then languished until the closing bell.
A mixed batch of first-quarter earnings
reports offered traders little direction.
DuPont said the rising dollar
weighed on its results in the first quarter as earnings and sales shrunk. The
chemical giant also lowered its forecast for full-year profits, and its stock
fell $2.15, or 3 percent, to $70.69.
It seems the market is in a holding
pattern as investors are waiting to see
just how much the dollar impacts corporate earnings, said Russell Price,
Ameriprise Financials senior economist. So far, things are a bit better
than expected, but well see how it
plays out.
The Standard & Poors 500 index fell
3.11 points, or 0.2 percent, to close at
2,097.29.
The Dow Jones industrial average
fell 85.34 points, or 0.5 percent, to
17,949.59 while the Nasdaq composite gained 19.50 points, or 0.4 percent, to 5,014.10.
A strong dollar reflects the relative

strength of the U.S. economy, but for

big companies with customers around
the world, a rising dollar can mean
trouble. It hits Corporate America in
two ways, making goods produced in
the U.S. more expensive to foreign
customers and diminishing the value
of sales collected in foreign currencies
when U. S. corporations bring the
money home.
The rising dollar is a key reason analysts forecast that first-quarter corporate earnings will fall 2.2 percent,
according to S&P Capital IQ. They
expect sales to sink 1.8 percent. Over
the past week, Johnson & Johnson,
American Express and General Electric
blamed the dollar for hurting their
results.
Among a slew of other companies
reporting results Tuesday, HarleyDavidson turned in quarterly sales that
fell short of analysts targets. The
maker of motorcycles also cut its fullyear forecast for shipments, blaming
price cuts by rivals as well as the
strong dollar. The companys stock
fell $6.05, or 10 percent, to $55.72.
Teva Pharmaceuticals proposed buying Mylan NV, another maker of
generic drugs, for more than $40 billion in cash and stock. The offer
depends on Mylan dropping its proposed acquisition of yet another drugmaker, Perrigo. Mylans stock jumped

$6.02, or 9 percent, to $74.07. Tevas

rose 87 cents, or 1 percent, to $64.16.
Major markets in Europe continued
their recent climb. Germanys DAX
finished with a gain of 0.4 percent,
while Frances CAC-40 inched up 0.1
percent. Britains FTSE 100 added 0.2
percent.
Hong Kongs Hang Seng led a surge
in Asian markets, jumping 2.8 percent. The Shanghai Composite Index
in mainland China added 1.8 percent.
Japans Nikkei 225 gained 1.4 percent, while South Koreas Kospi lost
0.1 percent.
Back in the U.S., Kimberly-Clark
jumped 5 percent after the maker of
Huggies diapers and paper products
reported income and revenue that easily beat analysts forecasts. Its stock
surged $5.79 to $113.15.
Government bond prices fell, pushing the yield on the benchmark 10year Treasury note up to 1.91 percent.
In commodity trading, gold rose
$9.40 to settle at $1,203.10 an ounce,
while silver rose 12 cents to $16.01 an
ounce. Copper slipped 3 cents to
$2.70 a pound.
Crude oil fell $1. 12 to close at
$55.26 a barrel in New York. Brent
crude, a benchmark for international
oils used by many U.S. refineries, lost
$1.37 to close at $62.08 a barrel in
London.

Yahoos 1Q disappoints, but stock rises on Yahoo Japan hopes

By Michael Liedtke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Yahoo is still struggling to boost its revenue nearly three years
into CEO Marissa Mayers tenure, magnifying concerns that the Internet company holds
little value beyond its lucrative Asian investments.
The latest evidence of Yahoos financial
malaise emerged Tuesday with the release the
companys first-quarter earnings report.
Mayer and Yahoos chief financial officer,
Ken Goldman, eased investors disappointment by pledging to cut costs, while indicating that the company may be willing to fulfill Wall Streets desire for a spinoff of its
stake in Yahoo Japan.
Yahoo disclosed Tuesday that it already has
trimmed its workforce by 1,100 people during the first three months of the year to
11,400 full-time employees.

Activist shareholder Starboard Value L.P.,

which owns a nearly 1 percent stake in
Yahoo, has been urging Mayer to slash
expenses and spin off the Yahoo Japan stake
to lift the companys stock.
Investors had driven down the companys
stock 12 percent this year before Tuesdays
numbers came out. The shares initially fell by
an additional 2 percent in extended trading,
but then rebounded after the cost-cutting
pledge and the Yahoo Japan remarks. If the
Yahoo Japan is spun off, it would mirror what
Mayer has already started to do with an even
more valuable stake in Alibaba Group, an ecommerce star in China.
Yahoos stock rose 47 cents to $44.96 after
Mayers remarks in a Web cast reviewing the
financial results. After accounting for ad commissions, Yahoos first-quarter revenue fell 4
percent from the same time last year to $1.04
billion, extending a troubling trend that
began before Mayer took over in July 2012.

Every Battery For Every Need

Yahoos net revenue has declined from the

previous year in seven of the past nine quarters. The only uptick reflected mere 1 percent
increases in revenue.
Before taking out ad commissions,
Yahoos first-quarter revenue climbed 8 percent, but that didnt impress investors
because they focus on the amount of money
that the company retains after paying its
partners for helping to draw online traffic to
it ads.
Those expenses, known as traffic acquisition costs, quadrupled from the same time
last year, an indication that Yahoo is paying
a steep price to show its advertising. Among
other things, Yahoo recently struck a deal to
be the default search engine on the Mozilla
web browser that required a higher payout.
Mayer told investors Tuesday that the
Mozilla partnership is already profitable.
There are some good things going on at
Yahoo, but it still feels like theres a lot more

Employers cut jobs in 31 states as growth slows

WASHINGTON Employers in 31
U.S. states cut jobs last month as weak
economic growth weighed on hiring

caused big job losses in some states.

still to be done, said S&P Capital IQ analyst

Scott Kessler.
Although Yahoos stock has nearly tripled
under Mayers leadership, most of the
increase has been tied to the companys 24
percent stake in Alibaba Group and 35 percent stake in Yahoo Japan not its core
business.
The planned Alibaba spinoff, due to be
completed by the end of this year, is designed
to avoid a big tax bill on the gains. A similar
benefit could be achieved with a Yahoo Japan
spinoff, to the delight of investors.
Yahoos holdings in Alibaba Group and
Yahoo Japan are currently worth about $41
billion, before factoring in potential taxes.
Throw in the nearly $7 billion in cash and
marketable securities that Yahoo held at the
end of March, and the companys current market value of $42 billion implies investors
think Yahoos ongoing business is worth
next to nothing.

states with large oil and gas drilling,

led by Texas, which lost 25,400 jobs,
and followed by Oklahoma, which cut
12,900. Pennsylvania lost 12,700,
the third largest loss. A sharp fall in
oil prices since last June has caused oil
and gas companies to cut back on
drilling. Pennsylvania has benefited
in recent years from the discovery of
shale gas fields in the state.
Nationwide, employers added just
126,000 jobs in March, the fewest in
15 months and snapping a year-long
streak of monthly gains above
200, 000. The unemployment rate
remained 5.5 percent.

Harsh winter weather and a labor dispute at West Coast ports that disrupted
shipping dragged down the economy
in the first three months of the year.
Consumers, meanwhile, have saved
much of the windfall they have
received from cheaper gas prices, lowering spending. And a big jump in the
dollars value also has made U. S.
exports more expensive and lowered
overseas sales of U.S. goods.
All told, economists forecast that
growth slowed to an annual rate of 1
percent or less in the first quarter,
down from a roughly 3.4 percent pace

It would be hard to argue that point. Smith

The teams in playoff contention couldnt
contend with both sides (singles and doubles), Smith said.
The Dons, however, didnt become aware

prior to playing Burlingame. Owdom said
he wanted to clinch second place because of
the seeding in the PAL tournament. As the

No. 1 seed, the Dons will play the Ocean

begins Monday at Aragon.
That would give the Dons the easiest route
to the grabbing that second automatic playoff spot to CCS. If the Dons fail to capture
the PAL team tournament, they will have to
apply for CCS as an at-large team.
To get an at-large bid is no easy task,

The Aragon boys tennis team entered the

week needing to win just one of its nal two
matches to clinch second place in the
Peninsula Athletic League Bay Division
standings.
Burlingame, on the other hand, is simply
playing out the string. With only three wins
in league play, the Panthers will miss the
postseason for the second straight season.
So Tuesdays match between the two in
San Mateo was Burlingames de facto playoff match. The Panthers, with a win, could

have postponed the Dons chance at grabbing the second spot in the league standings.
No dramatics materialized, however.
Aragon won three of the four singles matches and swept the three doubles matches to
post a 6-1 victory, wrapping up second
place. More importantly, it gives the Dons
the No. 1 seed in the PAL team tournament,
which will determine the PALs second automatic Central Coast Section berth.

Kole Calhoun tied a career-best with four

Green growing into role as Warriors vocal leader

will see and certainly hear Draymond

barking back at Warriors coach Steve Kerr

with 3:55 remaining in

Something similar happens in almost every
game Green plays, and

Kerr is all for it.

Its great. I love it. I love the edge. I love
the passion, Kerr said Tuesday, a day off for
both teams. We both know that were in
the same fight together and maybe two different perspectives but with the same goal.
Its healthy, but its fun.
Sweet-shooting guards Stephen Curry and
Klay Thompson have soaked up most of the
attention this season after powering the
Warriors to the NBAs best record. But Kerr
knows every championship contender

needs a grinder like Green in the playoffs,

when the game becomes more physical and
every play is paramount.
Were a pretty quiet group, and I love that

Padres pick up a big Royals Herrera suspended,

WCAL win over Mitty Ventura fined for incident
By Terry Bernal

against Oakland last week

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Serra committed a season-high five errors

Wednesday, but boy did the defense come up
big in the clutch.
The Padres (5-3 in WCAL, 13-5 overall)
rode a gem by starting pitcher John Beese to
a 2-1 win over Mitty at Frisella Field. Beese
took a no-hitter into the seventh before
earning the victory with six-plus innings of
one-hit baseball.
But it was the glove work of shortstop
Calvin Reilly that stole the show.
With the tying run on third base and two
outs in the seventh, Mittys Conner Young
hit a shot that looked destined for left field.
But after a tremendous first step, Reilly
tracked down the looping liner with a diving backhand to end the game.
You cant say enough about Calvin and
the way he bounced back and made that play
when it counted most, Serra manager Craig
Gianinno said. Thats what its about.
Thats team baseball all the way around.
Theyre picking each other up.
With the win, Serra moves into a threeway tie for second place in the West
Catholic Athletic League with Mitty (5-3,
15-6) and Valley Christian. First-place St.
Francis is two games up.
Beese was brilliant in the key victory.
After starting the year on the disabled list,
Beese has won each of his first four appearances. Wednesdays was the most dominant
though, as the big right-hander entered the
final inning with a no-hit bid on the line.
I had my curveball working, Beese said.
I felt like I could throw it in any count. I
just tried to work off my fastball. I worked
the two-seam and just let my defense
make plays.
Even when his defense let him down,
Beese soldiered through while the Padres
never trailed in the game. Serra jumped out
to a 1-0 lead in the third when Tyler
Villaroman singled and stole second before
scoring on an infield error.
Beese faced his toughest test in the fifth
inning. He induced back-to-back groundballs to start the inning, but both batters
reached via infield errors. After both runners
moved up with a wild pitch, Young hit a
sharp grounder to Reilly, but the senior
committed his second error of the game with
Max Werner scoring from third, despite
Mitty not yet tabbing a hit.

ing one of his three strikeouts before the
inning ended on a foul fly ball to right.
I just tried to keep it the same, Beese
said. I tried to keep it like no runners on,
like I was in the windup, but I was in the
stretch. That was the only difference.
Serra answered right back to take the lead
in the bottom of the frame. Cleanup hitter
Scott Ota sparked the rally with a one-out
double and advanced to third on an errant
relay throw from the outfield. Nick Knecht
followed by scorching an RBI single to center.
We saw the one (run) go up, and we were
like, lets try to win this inning and get one
back, Knecht said. Then everyone rallied
around rallied around each other and we just
found a way to get the job done.
After Mitty led off the seventh with a hit,
Nick Von Tobel entered in relief and set
down all three batters he faced to earn his
second save of the year.
Whether weve started [Von Tobel] or
weve brought him in in relief, hes been
ready for every opportunity and hes really
risen to the challenge, Giananno said.
And Calvin made a great play.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. Major League

Baseball suspended Kansas Royals reliever
Kelvin Herrera five games and fined him and
pitcher Yordano Ventura on Tuesday after
both targeted Oakland third baseman Brett
Lawrie during a testy series over the weekend.
Herrera was tossed in the eighth inning of
Sundays game after throwing behind
Lawrie, the second time he had thrown inside
to him. Ventura was ejected a day earlier
when he hit Lawrie with a 99 mph fastball
above the left elbow immediately following
Josh Reddicks home run.
Unless he appealed, Herrera was to start
his suspension Tuesday night against
Minnesota.
Nobody likes going through what we
went through this weekend, nobody,
Royals manager Ned Yost said. Nobody
likes it, but it happens.
The incidents came after Lawries hard, late
slide into Alcides Escobar covering second
base Friday night left the Kansas City shortstop with a sprained left knee. Escobar and
several of his teammates called it a dirty
slide and unnecessary given the situation.
Lawrie said he texted an apologyto a
phone number for Escobar he got from
Royals first baseman Eric Hosmer. Escobar
denied receiving the text.
The incident on Friday night triggered
both benches and bullpens to empty, though
no punches were thrown. And it led to a tense
series between teams that met in last years
AL wild-card game, which the Royals won in
come-from-behind fashion in 12 innings.

The benches cleared again Saturday after

Venturas pitch, and for a third time Sunday,
when the teams began playing a dangerous
game of dodgeball involving 90-plus heat.
The Athletics Scott Kazmir started things
off by hitting Lorenzo Cain. Both teams
were issued warnings by plate umpire Greg
Gibson, and Yost came out to argue. He was
immediately tossed from the game along
with pitching coach Dave Eiland.
Things settled down until the eighth,
when Herrera threw inside to Lawrie.
Moments later, he sent a 100 mph fastball
behind Lawries shoulders and was quickly
ejected. Bench coach Don Wakamatsu and
Escobar, who had been in the dugout, also
were tossed.
I dont mean to hurt anybody, Herrera
said. Just trying to throw inside, but a bad
grip on that fastball. It started raining pretty
good. And they just tossed me out.
Herrera did point to his head as he left
what he called a think about it warning.
Thats what got me hot. Thats what got
me mad. You cant throw at my head and then
say, Next time I face you, its in the head,
Lawrie said. He needs to pay for that.
The Royals were already on edge when the
series began after a number of their players
had been hit by pitches earlier this season.
Among them was outfielder Alex Rios, who
landed on the disabled list with a broken finger after getting hit by Twins rookie J.R.
Graham.
Kansas City players were hit 14 times in
the teams first 13 games.
At first I thought it was more of a fluke.
Now Im starting to think the other way a little bit, Yost said. Hopefully itll slow
down a little here.

Reds manager apologizes

for language, not message
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MILWAUKEE Cincinnati Reds manager

Bryan Price apologized on Tuesday for using
profanity during a pregame meeting with
reporters, but says he stands by his message
that media shouldnt report developments he
feels would put his team at a competitive disadvantage.
Price had a profanity-filled monologue
before a 6-1 win over the Brewers on Monday
night. The struggling Reds had just been
swept in St. Louis, dropping them below
.500.
Through the teams Twitter account on
Tuesday, Price apologized for his choice of
words.
In my pre-game conversation with
reporters yesterday, I used wholly inappropriate language to describe the media coverage of
our team, Price said, according to the teams
tweet. While I stand by the content of my

message, I am sorry for

the choice of words.
Price was particularly
upset over a Cincinnati
Enquirer report that catcher Devin Mesoraco wasnt
available to play during a
game in St. Louis because
of injury. The Reds confirmed on Monday that
Bryan Price
Mesoraco is in Cincinnati
getting tested for a sore hip.
Price also was upset that the Enquirer
reporter had tweeted that catcher Tucker
Barnhart was on his flight to St. Louis for the
series on Friday, an indication he was being
called up from the minors.
Its nobodys (expletive) business, Price
said.
The Enquirer counted 77 uses of a common
vulgarity during Prices 5-minute, 34-second
diatribe.

tone as its No. 3 and No. 2 singles players,
Jonathon Liu and Landers Ngirchemat, made
quick work of their opponents. Liu posted
the rst point for Aragon in the team competition with a 6-0, 6-1 victory.
Ngirchemat followed his teammate off the
court shortly thereafter with a 6-0, 6-2 win.
The Dons earned their third point with a
win at No. 3 doubles, where Kelvin Yang and
William Miyahira rolled to a 6-2, 6-0 win.
David Wu then clinched the match for Dons,
earning their fourth point at No. 4 singles
with a 6-1, 6-3 victory.

GIANTS
Continued from page 11
Yasiel Puigs hard-hit ball in the eighth.
Maxwells left knee and side made hard contact with the cement portion of the wall and
athletic trainer Dave Groeschner and center
elder Angel Pagan came over to check on
him. Puig clapped for Maxwell from the
dugout as the outelder shook off his tender
wrist and stayed in the game.
He added to his big day with the homer to
deep left in the bottom half, his rst with
the Giants.
Puig went 2 for 4 while returning to the
Los Angeles lineup from his own injury
after missing four of the previous ve games
with a sore left hamstring.
Lincecum, who cut his hair since his last
start in a rocker-inspired do, bounced back
from a 4-2 defeat to Colorado last

THE DAILY JOURNAL

Ngirchemat said he and his teammates

were happy to get the win out of the way and
not have to worry about Thursdays match
with Hillsdale.
There were several teams tied for second
place, Ngirchemat said. Clinching it
early is not a bad thing and it takes a lot of
pressure off us.
Ngirchemat credited an inux of freshmen
talent, combined with a step up in play from
the returners for the Dons success this season.
We werent sure how we were going to do
this year, Ngirchemat said. I was slightly
surprised (with our success this year).
The best matches of the day came at No. 2
and No. 3 doubles, which were both won by
Aragon in three sets. The No. 2 team of
Tony Wang and Sameer Jain needed to rally

to beat Burlingame Kevin Taggart and

Chris Hu, who won the rst set 6-4.
Wang and Jain, however, came back to
win the second set in a tiebreaker, 7-3. With
the team match already decided, a supertiebreaker was used in lieu of a third set,
with the Aragon tandem holding on for a 1513 win.
A super-tiebreaker uses rally scoring,
meaning a point is scored on serve. First to
10 wins.
Alex Ilyin and Fabio Gallardo, at No. 1
doubles, also needed three sets to beat
Burlingames Michael Resnick and Pierce
Thompson.
Unlike their teammates, Ilyin and
Gallardo won the rst set, 7-5, before
Resnick and Thompson rallied to win the
second set 6-3. This match also used a super-

tiebreaker instead of a third set. Ilyin and

Gallardo won 10-8.

Wednesday. After Jean

Machi walked the bases
loaded in the ninth,
Santiago Casilla came in
and threw a wild pitch
that scored a run before
nishing for his fth
save in as many tries.

While Aragon has solidied its spot in the
standings, the rest of the PAL team tournament is still up in the air. Woodside and

They will be the No. 2 and No. 3 seeds, but

CSM
Continued from page 11
really excited for my team, and
myself, and my coaches. Its an
amazing feeling.
While the team entered play
fully aware it was playing for history, CSM head coach Nicole
Borg kept her players loose by
chirping about the jet stream to
left field. But she also reminded
them they had a chance to do
something special.
Not that we had anything to
lose consequently to our season,
but we were striving for that perfect season, Borg said. Hey,
what the heck? Why not? We only
have one game left. We might as
well shoot for it. So, writing our
name in history is pretty awesome. The 2015 softball team can
always say they were the first
ones to do it.
The wind actually played less of
a factor than the Bulldogs
strong, fundamental approaches
at the plate.
Peterson paced the Bulldogs
with a 3-for-3 afternoon, but the
best hitting team in the state with
a .435 team batting average needed just 11 hits to generate its 20
runs. CSM also drew seven walks
and three hit batsmen. Every
starter reached base in the game.
Its a team effort and we need a
team to defeat people, Peterson
said. The best part about playing
with this team is we have a very
good vibe. We all get along off
and on the field, so it helps us on
the field. So, when we work hard
it shows.
Make no mistake, the CSM
power did show up. After the

TERRY BERNAL/DAILY JOURNAL

The Bulldogs were firing on all cylinders Wednesday to

complete their undefeated season with a win over Foothill.
Left: Lelani Akai hit a two-run home run in the third, sparking
a 13-run rally as CSM sent 16 batters to the plate in the frame.
Above: Second baseman Christy Peterson turned CSMs
second double play of the game in the seventh.
Right: Starting pitcher Lauren Berriatua allowed just one hit
over four shutout innings to earn her 23rd win of the year.
Bulldogs dropped a three-spot in
the
first
inning,
Melina
Rodriguez hammered a solo shot
in the second. Lelani Akai followed with a majestic two-run
bomb in the third to spark a 13run rally in the frame, which saw
the Bulldogs send 16 batters to
the plate.
While the power display excited, Rodriguez impressed with her
first-inning at-bat by patiently
coaxing a leadoff walk. After a
sacrifice bunt by Kayleen Smith,
Harlee Donovan reached on an
error and cleanup hitter Lauren
Berriatua walked to load the
bases. Akai was then hit by a
pitch to force home Rodriguez
with the first run of the game.
Peterson followed with the
games first hit, shooting a two-

run single to center to give CSM a

3-0 lead.
When Rodriguez came to the
plate in the second inning, however, she got her pitch and jumped
on it, drilling a rocket out of the
yard to left.
I was feeling really good,
Rodriguez said. I felt like, after
that, my teammates were going to
pick me up and get more hits. And
they ended up doing that.
CSM impressed on both sides
of the ball. In the circle Berriatua
dominated, allowing just one hit
through four shutout innings to
earn her 23rd win of the year. The
sophomore right-hander struck
out seven. And the trouble she did
get into, she soldiered right
through it.
Of course, trouble is a rela-

tive term for Berriatua, who

cemented her state ERA crown for
the regular season with a 0.28
mark. In the first inning,
Foothill leadoff hitter Alexandra
Calvert reached base on an error
by shortstop Kayleen Smith. On
the following pitch, Berriatua
induced a tailor-made double-play
ball to short and Smith shuffle to
Peterson at second to turn a flawless twin-killing.
In the second inning, Foothill
cleanup hitter Ariana Garcia
tabbed the Owls only hit off
Berriatua with a leadoff single.
The ace right-hander reciprocated
by striking out the next five batters she faced.
Berriatua departed after four
innings as CSM turned to sophomore Lacie Crawford to close it

out. Crawford yielded two hits and

a walk but, like her rotation mate,
pitched through trouble to keep
Foothill off the board for CSMs
18th shutout of the season and its
sixth over the last seven games.
Crawford recorded the final out of
the regular season with a strikeout.
It was great, Crawford said.
Getting the final out was just the
seal that we had an undefeated season. It was great. My defense was
making great plays. It felt really
good.
Up next for CSM are the regional playoffs. By virtue of being
the No. 1-ranked team in the
state, the Bulldogs will have
home-field advantage against
opponents to be determined May
1-2.

WARRIORS
Continued from page 11
Monday night put the Warriors up 2-0 in the
first-round playoff series.
Green is averaging 14. 5 points, 12
rebounds and six assists in the first two
games of the series, which resumes
Thursday night in New Orleans. But his contributions go beyond the box score.
He just always finds a way to be in the
mix. There is no teaching that, Curry said.
Greens game is generated by the same
method that helped him win two state titles
at Saginaw High School in Michigan, reach
two Final Fours at Michigan State and take
home Big Ten Player of the Year honors as a
senior.
He just outworks people and lets them
hear about it.

SPORTS
Ill just start talking junk to anybody. And all I
need to do is get one. If I get one person to respond to me,
Ill get going quick. And Ill start talking to everybody.
Draymond Green, on his propesity to talk trash

Thats kind of how I am. It could be in

practice. And if Im like really going, Ill
just start talking junk to anybody, Green
said. And all I need to do is get one. If I get
one person to respond to me, Ill get going
quick. And Ill start talking to everybody.
Ill start talking to the team. If Im on
blue, Ill start talking to white. If they dont
respond, Ill start talking junk to blue
the same team. If they dont respond, Ill
talk to coaches and video guys, whoever.
All I need is one person. It gets me going. I
dont know what it is.
Green had a close relationship with former Warriors coach Mark Jackson in his
first two seasons. Jackson, an ordained

minister who never cussed, had a more laidback approach with players.
Green credits Kerrs fiery attitude for
bringing out the best in him, comparing the
bond to the one he built with Tom Izzo at
Michigan State. He pinpoints an exchange
during a home game earlier this season as a
turning point in the relationship.
He said something to me on the court,
and I started yelling back, Green said. Im
like, Whoa. He said something else, and I
caught myself the first time, and I start
yelling back again. So now I walk to the
bench and Im like, My bad. And hes like,
No, I love that fire. And then I started to
notice he would do stuff to get me amped up.

Im like, OK, kind of treading down that

Tom Izzo road again.
Sometimes Greens emotions can be misinterpreted.
During pre-draft interviews, he said he
was asked about TV cameras catching him
yelling at Izzo on the sidelines. Green said
thats just how they communicated.
The same goes for teammates. Warriors
center Andrew Bogut said he learned early on
not to get Green talking in practice but to
feed off the energy he brings in games.
He hustles. Hes a dog, Bogut said.
In his first two years, Green provided key
minutes off the bench, but mostly as a situational defender. It wasnt until two-time
All-Star power forward David Lee missed 24
of the first 25 games at the start of the season with a strained left hamstring that
Green got a chance to win the starting job.
I thought Draymond would start to
emerge, Kerr said. But I had no idea he was
this good.

Saudi says campaign

against Yemen rebels
entering a new phase
By Aya Batrawy and Ahmed Al-Haj
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NAJRAN, Saudi Arabia Saudi Arabia

declared an end on Tuesday to its nearly
month-long Decisive Storm air campaign
against Houthi rebels in Yemen, and
announced the start of a more limited military campaign aimed at preventing the
rebels from operating.
Speaking at a news conference in Riyadh,
spokesman for the Saudi-led coalition Brig.
Gen. Ahmed Asiri said the campaign of
heavy airstrikes would be scaled down, but
did not confirm whether they would stop
altogether.
There might be less frequency and the
scope of the actions might be less, but there
will be military action, Asiri said.
He said the goals of the coalitions new
phase, called Renewal of Hope, are to prevent Houthi rebels from targeting civilians
or changing realities on the ground.
The U.S.-backed campaign by Saudi
Arabia, which was launched March 26, was
aimed at crushing the Houthis and allied mil-

itary units loyal to former autocratic Yemeni

President Ali Abdullah Saleh, who had taken
over the capital of Sanaa and much of northern Yemen. The kingdom says the aim is
also to restore to power President Abed
Rabbo Mansour Hadi, who was forced to flee
Yemen to Saudi Arabia last month.
Asiri said that Saudi Arabia and its coalition allies, mainly Gulf Arab countries, were
concluding this phase of the operation upon
the request of the legitimate Yemeni government, led by Hadi.
Al-Qaida in Yemen has made tactical gains
amid the chaos. The ground fighting and
airstrikes have pushed Yemen, the Arab
worlds poorest country, to the brink of collapse. The fighting has also taken on the
appearance of a proxy war between Iran, the
Shiite powerhouse backing the Houthis, and
Sunni-dominated Saudi Arabia.
The Houthi militias are active in the
southern port city of Aden, which has seen
fierce fighting and the shelling in recent
weeks. Earlier Tuesday, the coalition pounded Houthis and their allies, killing 20 fighters in the western city of Ibb, where Yemeni

army weapons depot, in Sanaa, Yemen.
security officials say the rebels were assembling to head to Aden as reinforcements
against forces loyal to Hadi.
Meanwhile, the civilian death toll rose to
38 from airstrikes the day before in the capital, Sanaa, officials said. All officials
spoke on condition of anonymity because
they were not authorized to speak to the
media.
The rebel-controlled Interior Ministry
said 84 people in total were killed across the
country in Mondays airstrikes. The casual-

ty figures could not be independently confirmed.

Asiri said that coalition forces would continue to maintain a naval blockade on Yemen
to vet ships and their content to ensure no
weapons reach the Houthi militias or Salehs
forces.
Saudi Arabia accuses Iran of arming the
Houthis a claim both Tehran and the
rebels deny, though the Islamic Republic
has provided political and humanitarian support to the Shiite group.

Low wages, trade deals luring auto plants, jobs to Mexico

By Tom Krisher
and Christopher Sherman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DETROIT Mexico has become the most

attractive place in North America to build
new automobile factories, a shift that has

siphoned jobs from the U.S. and Canada,

yet helped keep car and truck prices in check
for consumers.
In the past two years, eight automakers
have opened or announced new plants or
expansions in Mexico. Just last week,
Toyota announced a new plant in

Guanajuato to build the popular Corolla,

work now done in Canada, while Ford
unveiled plans for Mexican engine and
transmission factories.
Low labor costs and fewer tariffs are the
swing factors. A worker in Mexico costs car
companies an average of $8 an hour, including wages and benefits. That compares with
$58 in the U.S. for General Motors and $38
at Volkswagens factory in Tennessee, the
lowest hourly cost in the U.S., according to
the Center for Automotive Research, an
industry think tank in Ann Arbor,
Michigan. German auto workers cost about
$52 an hour.
Mexico also trumps the U.S. on free trade.
It has agreements with 45 countries, meaning low tariffs for exporting globally. That,
along with low labor costs, convinced Audi
to build an SUV factory in the state of
Puebla. The German automaker will save
$6,000 per vehicle in tariffs when it ships a
Q5 to Europe, compared with building the

same vehicle in the U. S. , says Sean

McAlinden, chief economist at CAR.
Audi also sells the Q5 in the U.S., where
tariffs on cars built in Mexico were dropped
under the North American Free Trade
Agreement.
The cost savings also should allow
automakers to add expensive fuel-saving
features to meet stricter U.S. government
gas mileage requirements without raising
car prices. Two-thirds of cars made in
Mexico are shipped to the U.S.
While Mexicos auto industry booms and
workers welcome the above-average wages,
they are speaking out more loudly about
working conditions.
Mexican auto production more than doubled in the past 10 years. The consulting
firm IHS Automotive expects it to rise
another 50 percent to just under 5 million
by 2022. U.S. production is expected to
increase only 3 percent, to 12.2 million
vehicles, in the next 7 years.

Make cocktail bitters at home in under 30 minutes

F

eeling bitter? Get in line. These

days anyone who takes their drinking seriously is getting intimate
with bitters.
Fueled largely by the hard liquor and artisanal cocktail booms, bitters those
astringent, potent flavor enhancers added
by the drop to cocktails have become a
big business. Ten years ago youd have
been challenged to find much beyond those
ubiquitous Angostura and Peychauds bitters. Today, bitters are made with everything from celery and rhubarb to Mexican
chocolate and Colonial-era spice blends.
Yet even with this delicious abundance,
its OK to want more. The good news is
that custom bitters are easy to crank out in
your own kitchen.
But first, a bitter primer. Bitters often are
described as the salt of the cocktail world.
A drop added to a drink and sometimes
food doesnt just add flavor, it heightens, highlights and ties together all the
other ingredients, as well. Most bitters are
made by distilling herbs, seeds, roots and
other ingredients. The result is a thin liquid
with a Surprise! bitter or bittersweet
taste and a robust aroma.
Many bitters including Angostura
originated a medicines. Weve mostly
abandoned that idea, but that doesnt mean
there isnt some therapeutic value in a
good cocktail...
While the Internet abounds with recipes
and methods for making your own bitters,

Ive found most of

them unnecessarily
fussy and tedious. So I
started experimenting
with basic techniques
and recipes and soon
discovered how simple
it really is to make
your own. Ive since
perfected two techniques, one that works
in about 30 minutes,
another that takes a
few days. It really just
depends on how much time youve got.

J.M. HIRSCH

INGREDIENTS
As the name suggests, at least one of
your ingredients should have a bitter (or
astringent) flavor. Citrus peel is ideal for
this. I generally use just the thin zest layer
of the peel from oranges or limes, though I
once used whole kumquats. You also could
use rhubarb, cranberries, fresh basil or
mint. Whole produce, such as kumquats,
should be scored with a knife.
Next, pick something sweet. Usually,
some sort of fruit is helpful here, such as
lemon or lime slices, cherries, apples,
berries or mango. Anything large (such as
an apple) should be chopped.
Now, grab something spicy. Cinnamon,
star anise, black peppercorns, cumin and
nutmeg are all delicious. If you like a little
heat, consider adding a hot pepper.

Bitters often are described as the salt of the cocktail world. A drop added to a drink and
sometimes food doesnt just add flavor, it heightens, highlights and ties together all the other
ingredients, as well.
so I often go with flavors such as cranberry-orange-cinnamon. Sometimes I add a
vanilla bean.
Finally, you need vodka. You will be
using all of these ingredients to infuse the
vodka, which ultimately will become the

The important thing is that you select

flavors and ingredients that you like and
that you think will work together. It also
helps if you have a cocktail or spirit in
mind when making your bitters. Im a fan
of the classic old fashioned made with
bourbon. I dont add much sugar to my
drink, but I do like sweetly-fruity bitters,

Niki Nakayama takes kaiseki center stage in Chefs Table

By Christine Armario
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES Behind a set of shades

hiding the dining room from the kitchen,
chef Niki Nakayama wraps her fingers
around a giant live scallop and gently pries
open the shell. She takes a knife and trims
out the sand-colored flesh inside. Later,
shell pair it with kiwi, dill and a beet and
sorrel sauce with a ponzu base.
Its those unexpected, enticing combinations that have made Nakayama a standout
in the culinary world. And later this month,
shell stand out for yet another reason.
Shes one of just six chefs to be profiled on
Netflixs first homegrown documentary
series, Chefs Table, which features some
of the most innovative chefs cooking
today.
The show takes viewers inside
Nakayamas Los Angeles restaurant,
n/naka, where she prefers to work out of

view. Thats symptomatic of many years

working in the world of
sushi, where being a
female chef brought
unwanted attention. As
one of only a handful of
female Japanese chefs,
she was seen as an oddiNiki Nakayama ty, even slighted by
male patrons, including
one who dismissed her work as cute.
These days, the 40-year-old Los Angelesborn chef crafts intricate 13-course kaiseki
meals, a Japanese tradition dating back to
the 13th century that presents a conversing
succession of raw heavy and light dishes,
grilled, steamed and fried offerings with an
emphasis on local ingredients.
Aside from her unusual pairings, shes
also known for her imaginative platings
and attention to detail: The restaurant keeps
track of everything customers eat to make

sure they arent served the same meal twice.

If you come back and experience that
same menu, that experience is going to go
down, Nakayama said. We have to stay
above that and keep them wondering.
Nakayama recently spoke with AP about
kaiseki, the role Los Angeles plays in her

cuisine, and stepping in front of the camera.

bitters. Dont go top shelf for the vodka;
just grab a jug of the cheap stuff.

SLOW METHOD
Place your infusion ingredients the
bitter, sweet and spicy ingredients youve
chosen in a glass quart jar with a tightfitting lid. How much? Depends. For citrus,
use the full zest of 3 to 4 pieces of fruit.
For cranberries, rhubarb or herbs, use
about 2 cups. The good news is that its
really hard to use too much, so when in
doubt, add more. Remember, the finished
product will only be used a few drops at a
time.
Once your ingredients are in the jar,
lightly mash them with a wooden spoon,
then add enough vodka to fill it. Screw on
the lid, shake, then walk away. Whenever
you think of it during the next three or four
days, give it a shake. After the infusion
has sat for that time, strain it, squeezing
the solids to get as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids.

Expires 4/30/15

Place the infused vodka in a small

saucepan and simmer until reduced by half.
Let it cool, then bottle it and refrigerate.
Done. Use a few drops in your next cocktail. The bitters will keep in the refrigerator for a month.

FAST METHOD
Ready for fun with science? This is where
we get to use the boiling point of alcohol
a low 176 F to our advantage.
First, heat a large pot of water to 176 F.
Use a candy thermometer hooked to the
side of the pot to monitor this. Now dump
all of the ingredients outlined in the slow
method above into a heat-safe plastic bag
(the bags used by vacuum sealers are a
good choice), pressing out as much air as
possible.
Submerge the bag in the warm water. In a
few minutes (depending on the temperature
of your ingredients), youll see the vodka
in the bag bubbling gently. Let it do that
for about 10 minutes.
Remove the bag from the water and let it
cool for another 15 or so minutes. Strain
and reduce as described in the slow method.
Done. Almost instant cocktail bitters. The
bitters will keep in the refrigerator for a
month.

Nakay ama: I started working with them
since the age of 12 and my feeling was, I
really dont like selling seafood. It smelled
funny and it was so cold inside and there were
all these big fish all over. It was more scary
than appealing. But one of the great things
having grown up in a family that did seafood
is we had the opportunity to try so many
kinds of seafood.
AP: Ho w di d kai s eki beg i n?
Nakay ama: Kaiseki originated from the
Buddhist monasteries. It was about creating
food around the tea ceremony. Over time it
evolved into two different kinds of kaiseki.
Even the writing of it is different in
Japanese. The vegan style is still done today,
but theres a different version. Its representative of a formal banquet where people sit and
gather and theres a lot of luxury, a lot of food
that is very grand. You would say thats the
complete opposite of the original kaiseki.
But the one thing they maintained in both
philosophies is appreciation of nature, of
seasons. Theres this underlying belief that
we should protect the ingredient, preserve
its natural flavors as much as possible.
AP: What are y o u try i ng to ex pres s
wi th any g i v en pl ate?
Nakay ama: We try to showcase the colors
of the seasons. For summer theres a lot of
green. For autumn, a lot more red and gold
and brown. Winter is a lot of darker colors,
more subdued. And springtime is bright,
bright green. Theres a new beginning. When
you experience kaiseki, youre very attuned
with whats happening all around you. Thats
a big thing about kaiseki. When you eat that
meal, you automatically know, This is
spring. This is summer. Autumn. Winter.

THE DAILY JOURNAL

AP: Is y o ur take o n kai s eki i nfl uenced by y o ur upbri ng i ng ?
Nakay ama: Yes, definitely. I think when
its a menu thats created, its very representative of personal tastes and experience.
When we go to eat at a traditional Japanese
restaurant, of course, we dont expect to eat
pasta, but that is one of our more popular
dishes here. Its just because I personally
love pasta and I think its wonderful to have
the ability to put it on the menu. Its definitely reflective of the things that I eat and I
feel is really a good representation of having
this Asian and American culture at the same
time.
AP: Do y o u thi nk i t has g o tten eas i er to be a femal e s us hi chef?
Nakay ama: Thats a difficult question.
For me personally, I feel that Ive been very
fortunate in peoples opinion and peoples
acceptance of n/naka. I feel like Ive received
a lot of positive feedback from people and
its not so much an issue anymore that Im a
female chef doing this Japanese cuisine
thats traditionally male. I feel that people
are very supportive of it and Ive been very
fortunate at this space. In terms of sushi, if I
were to stand behind a sushi bar at this point,
I dont really know what people would think.
Im not 100 percent sure just yet.

comfortable. And it seemed like such a wonderful opportunity to get what it is were
doing out there for people to understand better. I feel a little bit disappointed when people come here and they automatically assume
theyre at a sushi restaurant. Because what we

Why McDonalds is
still a powerhouse
By Candice Choi
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK McDonalds sales have been sputtering for

more than two years and the company seems trapped in a cycle
of bad headlines that likely wont end soon.
Its quarterly earnings results on Wednesday arent expected
to be pretty either, and theres a chance its dominance will
continue to wane as newer players keep coming onto the
scene.
But dont write the obituary just yet. McDonalds has many
strengths that the rivals biting at its heels can only envy,
including Ronald McDonalds worldwide recognition. The
Golden Arches will need to put them to good use to remain the
worlds largest restaurant chain.
Here are six reasons why McDonalds is nowhere close to
deaths door for now.

MASSIVE REACH

The formula is simple: 4 cups of fresh green herbs plus 1/3 cup of nuts or seeds plus 1/2 cup olive oil or broth (or a combination)
plus 1/4 cup hard Italian cheese. Blend until chunky or creamy. Done.

Dont limit yourself to basil for pesto

By Mellisa DArabian
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Fresh herbs are one of natures best

low-cal flavor sources. And as the
weather warms up, well transition
from buying herbs in cute little
clamshells costing a couple bucks
each to scooping large bunches of
soft-leaved herbs into our carts for
pennies on the dollar. Or perhaps you
have an herb garden and youll find
yourself inundated with a cilantro or
parsley plant that takes over a small
section of your backyard.
What to do with all these herbs? One
approach to preserving herbs is to
freeze them as cubes. To do this, you
simply blend up clean, fresh herbs
with just enough oil or water to make a
thick paste. You then fill ice cube trays
(silicone muffin cups also work) about
halfway with the herb paste and freeze.
Once frozen, the herb cubes can be
bagged and stored in the freezer until
needed.
Note that water-based herb cubes
freeze more firmly than oil-based, but
herbs discolor more in water. Either
way, these cubes are easily added to
soups, stews, sautes and chili. For the

best effect, add them toward the end of

cooking so the fresh flavor of the preserved herbs really comes through.
Another favorite strategy for making the most of my herbs is pesto. But
dont assume youre limited to the
classic basil version. Using my simple formula, you can use just about any
herb or green (or combination) to
make a tasty pesto perfect for pasta,
seafood, dipping bread, spooning over
a hot soup, or any other favorite way
to use pesto. It also freezes well as
cubes.
Once you jump on the pesto ice cube
train, you will be amazed at the many
uses: Add to scrambled eggs; use as a
sandwich spread; whisk with Dijon
mustard, red wine vinegar and water to
make vinaigrette; spoon over meat hot
off the grill; toss with roasted veggies; mix with an equal amount of
Dijon and spoon over chicken breasts
before roasting; mix with Greek
yogurt for veggie dip. You get the idea.
The formula is simple: 4 cups of
fresh green herbs plus 1/3 cup of nuts
or seeds plus 1/2 cup olive oil or broth
(or a combination) plus 1/4 cup hard
Italian cheese. Blend until chunky or
creamy. Done.

FRESH DILL PESTO

Start to finish: 10 minutes
Servings: 8
2 cups fresh parsley leaves
2 cups fresh dill fronds
1/3 cup almonds
1 large garlic clove, roughly
chopped
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Hefty pinch of salt
In a blender or food processor, combine the parsley, dill, almonds and garlic. Pulse until finely chopped. Add the
oil, broth, Parmesan and salt, then
blend to desired consistency. Use
immediately, or transfer to a small
bowl, cover tightly and chill.
Alternatively, spoon into ice cube
trays (fill cubes only halfway) and
freeze. Pop out frozen pesto cubes and
keep in a zip-close plastic bag in the
freezer.

McDonalds has more than 14,300 locations in the U.S. and

that ubiquity continues to make it a default option for many
diners. Burrito chain Chipotle is in growth mode but still only
a fraction of that size, with around 1,800 locations. (Shake
Shack, whose stock offering earlier this year garnered lots of
attention, has fewer than 40.)
Because of its recent struggles, McDonalds plans to slow
its growth to its lowest level in five years. But slow is relative: It still plans to add 600 to 700 restaurants around the
world this year, on top of the more than 36,200 it already has.
Chipotle has said it plans to open up to 205 new stores this
year, mostly in the U.S.

MARKETING POWER
McDonalds has enormous marketing muscle, in large part
because its franchisees are required to contribute at least 4 percent of their sales to advertising.
That huge bucket of money is split in two ways. Some goes
to national advertising and focuses on burnishing the brand.
The rest goes to regional advertising and focuses more on promotions to drive customers to stores.
Advertising doesnt have to be expensive to be effective, of
course. But McDonalds deep pockets give it a clear advantage.

PRINTING MONEY
The recent sales decline in the U.S. is squeezing franchisees,
who still have to pay for fixed costs like labor and electricity.
But McDonalds restaurants continue to generate a lot more
cash than their peers. In 2014, the average McDonalds restaurant raked in $2.5 million in sales, according to industry
tracker Technomic. Wendys restaurants pulled in an average

Chipotle: Carnitas shortage to persist for months

By Candice Choi

many other fast-food chains, it fell short of

the 11. 7 percent increase Wall Street
expected, according to Thomson Reuters. It
was also down from the 16. 1 percent
growth in the previous period.
Jack Hartung, chief financial officer for
Chipotle, said one problem is the loss of
customers who go to Chipotle specifically
for its carnitas.
They appear to be visiting less often, or
not at all, he said.
Making matters worse, Chipotle has
been rotating its pork supplies around the
country every six weeks so that no single
region is affected for a prolonged period.
But Hartung said that has only caused more
confusion and that the company plans to
stop the strategy later this month so that
regions where carnitas are most popular
will have stable supplies.
A spokesman for the company, Chris
Arnold, has said that pork accounts for 6 to

7 percent of entree orders.

Even if Chipotles decision to stop serving pork in some restaurants slows growth,
it underscores the companys strategy of
defining itself as a purveyor of food made
with quality ingredients, and high standards. Mark Crumpacker, Chipotles chief
marketing officer, said during a conference
call that customers are showing a greater
interest in eating healthier and that
healthier is being defined as food thats
natural and free of artificial ingredients.
In the meantime, Chipotle has not identified the supplier that it said violated its
standards and is responsible for the pork
outage at about a third of its stores.
Niman Ranch, one of Chipotles suppliers, said it has already increased its pork
supplies to the Mexican food chain twice
since the shortage began, with another
increase planned in August, to help make
up for the gap. The increases have partly

been the result of Chipotles growing store

count, said Jeff Tripician, chief marketing
officer for Niman Ranch.
Theyve always wanted more from us,
even before they had this problem, he
said.
For the quarter, Chipotle Mexican Grill
Inc. earned $122.6 million, or $3.88 per
share. Analysts on average expected $3.61
per share.
A year ago, it earned $83.1 million, or
$2.64 a share.
Total revenue which was boosted by
49 new store openings during the period was $1.09 billion. That fell short of the
$1.1 billion analysts had forecast, according to Zacks Investment Research.
Its stock was down more than 5 percent
to $656.12 in after-hours trading.
Chipotle said it still expects sales at
established locations to rise in the low- to
mid-single digits for the year.

NEW LEADERSHIP

UNLOCKING BREAKFAST

Ray Kroc, who built McDonalds into a fastfood giant.)

Continued from page 21

Fans of McDonalds breakfast have long

called on the chain to offer it past 10:30
a.m. McDonalds is finally giving the idea a
serious try with a test of an all-day breakfast
menu in San Diego.
Its just one way McDonalds might bring
more customers into its stores, and may signal the companys willingness to take bigger risks with its menu.
Big companies tend to be cautious about
change, and McDonalds in particular is
known for its methodical decision-making.
But executives may pick up the pace to
avoid becoming outdated and give customers what they want.

McDonalds CEO Steve Easterbrook

stepped into his role just last month and
said he wants to make McDonalds a modern, progressive burger company. In a
meet-and-greet with analysts, he also
referred to himself as an internal activist
at the company, according to Sara Senatore,
a Bernstein analyst.
Another new executive is Mike Andres,
who became president of the U.S. division
in October and has a deep history with
McDonalds. He started as a manager for his
family-owned McDonalds, and has served
in a variety of leadership roles at the company.
(Side note: Andres father was a pilot for

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Bad news for die-hard carnitas fans: Chipotle said it doesnt expect
its pork shortage to fully recover until
closer to the end of the year.
The Denver-based company said Tuesday
it is working with suppliers to get pork
back in its roughly 1,800 restaurants by
the fourth quarter, which begins in October.
The shortage began in January and affected
about a third of its restaurants after the
company said it suspended a major supplier
over animal welfare violations.
Already, Chipotle said the pork shortage
and bad weather dampened its sales growth
in the first three months of the year. Sale
rose 10.4 percent in the period at established locations, boosted mostly by price
hikes.
While the increase would be enviable for

of $1.6 million, while Burger King pulled

in $1.2 million.
A big reason for the difference: the popularity of McDonalds breakfast.
Average annual sales for Shake Shack are
far higher at $4.6 million, according to
Technomic. But thats in part because Shake
Shack is concentrated in New York City,
where volumes tend to be higher. The average Chipotle generates roughly the same
sales volume as McDonalds even without
breakfast, in part because of its fast-moving

MURPHY
Continued from page 1
victim asking him to stop, Murphy kissed
her breasts and was attempting to remove
her underwear before being interrupted by a
female staff member who entered the room,
according to police.
The victim left the salon and immediately
contacted police who later determined
Murphy was not a licensed massage therapist and Elegant Beauty Salon is only
licensed as a hair and nail salon.
A representative of the salon said they had

no comment.
Investigators also determined Murphy is a
registered sex offender and although he is in
compliance with registering under Megans
Law, neither San Jose nor San Mateo police
were made aware of his employment because
there is no law requiring notification to the
jurisdiction where he is employed, according to police.
According to the U. S. Department of
Justice National Sex Offender Public
Website, Murphy registered for three
offenses including lewd or lascivious acts
with a child under 14 years old, oral copulation with a minor under 16 years old and
penetration with foreign object of victim

under 16 years old.

Murphy remains in custody at the San
Mateo County Jail where he is booked for
sexual battery and attempted oral copulation, according to police.
Police are actively investigating the incident as well as the salon and are asking anyone who may have patronized the business
and possibly been a victim of similar conduct to contact police.
We as a department do a really good job
of keeping track of the licensed massage
parlors that are in town, said San Mateo
police Sgt. Rick Decker. The most important thing for the public to know is that
locations such as this are permitted and

MCDONALDS HAS BEEN HERE BEFORE

The troubles McDonalds is facing are
partly the result of a shifting industry, with
many smaller players posing a challenge to
the big guys. If that trend keeps up,
McDonalds may not be able to save itself.
At the same time, its easy to forget that
McDonalds has had rough patches before
and pulled out of them.
Consider the expanded menu and focus on
value that former CEO Jim Skinner used to
turn around business. It isnt an ancient
example; Skinners tenure was from 2004 to
2012, the last few years of which were some
of McDonalds strongest.
licensed and monitored. So if they have any
question about the validity of a place,
theyre welcome to check with the police
department and online. Its unfortunate that
this happened and we want to find as many
people this happened to.
Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact San Mateo police
Detective Laura Sharp at (650) 522-5157 or
the anonymous tip line at (650) 522-7676.

HARBOR
Continued from page 1
ommending the board hire another
interim leader.
While challenges lie ahead, some are
hopeful a qualified candidate will be up
for taking the helm.
Theyre going to need to be experienced and theyre going to need to be
up for a challenge, theres no question
about that. We are a district in need of
assistance. But its also a tremendous
opportunity for someone who cares
about San Mateo County and theyre
passionate about the fishing community and things like the Coastal Trail
and all the other great recreational
opportunities the harbor provides,
said Sabrina Brennan, president of the
Harbor
District
Board
of
Commissioners.
Mattusch and David said the subcommittee is discussing hiring a part-time
general manager who they would likely share with a neighboring city; an
option theyre exploring while working with Brett Ives, a consultant hired
to help with the executive search.
Someone to provide guidance to the
Harbor District while we continue our
search for a full-time person, someone
to lend additional stability and let
Scott [Grindy] go back to what he
wants to do, which is be the harbormaster, Mattusch said.
Yet the details are far from solidified,
the board and the unnamed city would
need to approve the temporary hire and
the district has also lost the interest of

MEETING
Continued from page 1
Her husband works at a local delicatessen and earns $15 an hour.
Our rent has been raised twice but
our wages are not going up, she said.
Landlords, she said, are pushing out
the working poor.
Are we being counted or are we disposable? We feel like we dont count,
she said at the town hall.
The family may be forced to move to
the Central Valley where rents are
lower but jobs are scarce, she said.
While housing was a main topic at
the town hall others in attendance
chastised city officials for allowing
poorly-designed buildings such as the
new Box headquarters, 900 Crossing,
to be built so hastily.
Some called on a building moratorium downtown so the city can revisit
the Downtown Precise Plan, a yearsin-the-making blueprint for future
growth in the area.
Why has council anointed Redwood

two former candidates.

The process has been difficult,
David said. We had a few very good
qualified people that were applying,
but they decided to not go through the
interview process with the whole
board for different reasons. I think
in general, the Harbor District doesnt
have the best reputation right now.
Commissioner Robert Bernardo
agreed, adding several employees have
recently retired from the district.
Right now, were kind of bare
bones, and then you put on top of that
the whole LAFCo thing and were still
responding to the civil grand jury;
theres just so much on the plate
already and the plates not getting any
larger. So as you can imagine, whoevers in that spot, whether its Grindy or
whoever, I would imagine that could
scare off people wanting to apply for
that job, Bernardo said.
David said the subcommittee has
opted to look for an interim replacement, which would be a quicker
City as the poster child for high density? said Chris Johnson, a Mount
Carmel neighborhood resident.
The buildings designs are driven by
profit, he said, with cheaply-constructed facades.
He wants the city to amend the
Downtown Precise Plan to lower the
building height limits it currently
allows.
The council also heard from individuals who want to see the city use more
recycled water and others who want to
preserve the city-managed Docktown
Marina.
Councilman Ian Bain agreed with
many speakers that escalating rents
need to be addressed but said rent control is not the solution.
I do value you, Bain said to the
individuals who questioned whether
the council valued their contributions
to the city. A community is made up
of people in all income levels. We
have to figure out a solution.
He also agreed that aesthetics has
been missing from some of the new
taller buildings downtown.
I am disappointed with some buildings downtown, said Bain, who

process, thus allowing the district

more time to secure a long-term manager.
We definitely need someone with
good people skills, management
skills and administrative skills to help
the district stabilize a little bit. So we
can focus on the search for a permanent
general manager. But this is a rough
time of transition, David said.
The subcommittee will also put out a
request for applications for the permanent position and likely ask for stakeholder and public input, David and
Mattusch said.
Brennan said she envisions possibly having a member of the public who
has professional skills in executive
searches or keen insight to special district policies assist the subcommittee
in its process.
Brennan said the board approved a
pay increase for the next general manager to help attract qualified candidates, but remains cautious about the
districts budget.
Despite the entire board having yet
to interview a single candidate,
Brennan said shes confident theres
interest in running the valuable organization. Another assurance, the board
has five commissioners who willingly
signed up for the challenge of steering
the less than fully functional district,
Brennan said.
Clearly, if youre going to go there,
you are definitely a person whos up
for a challenge and my guess would be
your intentions would be that you really are passionate about a tremendous
opportunity to fix something that
needs fixing, Brennan said. So do
those people exist? Yes.
agreed that building height limits
should be looked at again in the
Precise Plan.
Councilwoman Rosanne Foust
reminded attendees that the city partners with nonprofit agencies that provide rental assistance and food for
those in need. She urged the audience
to take advantage of the services.
Councilwoman Alicia Aguirre also
reminded the public that the city would
not approve projects without having
enough water to support them.
Redwood City is one of the leaders in
the Bay Area in meeting the regions
housing needs, said Councilman John
Seybert. He said one city cannot solve
the housing needs of the entire region.
Redwood City cant do it by ourselves. Other cities need to step up,
Mayor Jeff Gee said about the need to
build more housing in the area.
The town hall, one of two the council plans this year, was attended by
about 60 people at the John F.
Kennedy Middle School gym Monday
night in an effort to better engage the
community. The next one is planned in
September at the Veterans Memorial
Senior Center.

ANSWERS

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 22, 2015

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Look for an artistic
outlet. Home decorating or renovations will turn out
well, as long as you stick to a strict budget. Dont
make decisions for others, or you will face opposition.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Your emotional state
will discourage personal discussions with others.
You would be best off delving into expressive
hobbies. Quietly doing something you enjoy will
help calm your nerves.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) Dont make
important decisions. Confusion and uncertainty
will prevail, making it difficult to do the right thing.

Each row and each column must contain the

numbers 1 through 6 without repeating.
The numbers within the heavily outlined boxes,
called cages, must combine using the given operation
(in any order) to produce the target numbers in the
top-left corners.
Freebies: Fill in single-box cages with the number in
the top-left corner.

Exposing too much personal information will put

you in a vulnerable position.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) A new friendship will
blossom. You have a lot to offer, but its important not
to provoke the jealousy of someone close to you.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Focus on a way to
increase your income. Delve into work and money
matters so that you have a perfect sense of where
you sit nancially. You have what it takes to advance.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Dont allow the actions
or words of others to have a negative effect on you.
Relatives or co-workers will be hard to get along
with. You are best off working alone.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Personal matters
will require your undivided attention. You will need

to take on extra responsibilities, so be prepared to

step up and do whats necessary.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Moderation is
key. You can make financial gains, but only if you
are logical, not emotional. Someone elses plan

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Wen Hsia Bessie Shih aka Bessie Shih
King, Bessie Shih, and Bessie King
Case Number: 125590
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of: Wen Hsia Bessie Shih,
aka Bessie Shih King, Bessie Shih, and
Bessie King. A Petition for Probate has
been filed by Arnold Theo King in the
Superior Court of California, County of
San Mateo. The Petition for Probate requests that Arnold Theo King be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.
The petition requests the decedents will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by
the court.
The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: May 27, 2015 at
9:00 a.m., Superior Court of California,
County of San Mateo, 400 County Center, Redwood City, CA 94063.
If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing
and state your objections or file written
objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your
claim with the court and mail a copy to
the personal representative appointed by
the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days
from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section
9052 of the California Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in
the estate, you may file with the court a
Request for Special Notice (form DE154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

Court sentences
ousted Egypt
president to 20
years in prison
By Maggie Michael
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CAIRO Egypts ousted Islamist president, Mohammed

Morsi, was convicted of using force against protesters and
sentenced to 20 years in prison on Tuesday, the first verdict
against him since he was removed by the military nearly
two years ago.
The case was the latest in a series of mass trials on a range
of charges against Morsi and other members of his Muslim
Brotherhood, which Egypts government has vowed to
crush, branding it a terrorist organization. Amnesty
International denounced Morsis trial as a sham as
rights groups have called many of the trials over the past
two years.
The Brotherhood went from decades as an underground
organization to vault to power after Egypts 2011 popular
uprising toppled longtime autocrat Hosni Mubarak. The
Brotherhood was the biggest winner in subsequent parliament elections, and Morsi running as its candidate
became Egypts first freely elected president in 2012.
But a year later, millions protested against Morsis divisive rule, and then-army chief Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi led the
militarys July 2013 removal of Morsi. Since then, a fierce
crackdown has shattered the Brotherhood, killing hundreds
of its supporters protesting for Morsis return and arresting
thousands more.
The verdict also sparked no immediate street protests,
reflecting the crackdowns impact on any show of dissent
either by Islamists or other activists.
Most of the Brotherhoods top leadership already have
received heavy prison sentences in other trials, as well as
hundreds of death sentences laid down for senior figures and
lower level supporters over acts of violence carried out during protests against Morsis ouster. The Brotherhoods top
leader, Mohammed Badie, has received several death sentences in multiple cases though they are subject to
appeal. He appeared in court recently in the red jumpsuit
worn by Egyptian prisoners on death row.
At the same time, Mubarak and members of his inner circle have largely been acquitted of charges related to the
killing of protesters during the uprising against his rule.
Charges against Mubarak over the killings were dropped
earlier this year.

Greeks anger over state cash

grab from public entities
By Nicholas Paphitis
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ATHENS, Greece Greek local authorities were on the

brink of revolt Tuesday against the central governments
move to use cash reserves from state agencies including
hospitals and kindergartens to help the country make
ends meet.
At an emergency meeting in Athens, angry mayors voted
to defy the order to have spare reserves put in a central bank
account. They also agreed to stage protests and take every
possible political and legal action against the radical leftled government over its decision.
Not a single municipality should deposit even one euro
at the Bank of Greece, said Ioannis Lolos, mayor of the
northwestern town of Igoumenitsa.
Citing an extremely urgent and unforeseen need for
cash, an emergency government decree Monday rendered
funds from state entities such as the national opera, the
national art gallery and even hospitals and kindergartens
available for short-term loans to the state. That is expected
to raise up to 2 billion euros ($2.1 billion), enough to pay
Greeces public debts through May.
The move, unprecedented in recent Greek history, is the
latest sign that the country is running perilously short of
cash amid an impasse in bailout talks with its international
creditors.
Until it reaches an agreement with its creditors from the
19-country eurozone and the International Monetary Fund,
Greece will not get a badly-needed 7.2 billion euros ($7.7
billion) in rescue funds, without which Athens will be
unable to meet loan obligations this summer.
A senior European Union official said Tuesday that reform
talks are where ideally I think we would have wanted to find
ourselves two months ago.
Eurozone members had agreed that Greece should finalize
its reform plans by the end of this month. Their finance
ministers, known as the eurogroup, want to assess progress
at a meeting in Latvia on Friday. But technical talks aimed
at establishing what those reforms are have borne little
fruit.

react after the Egyptian armys statement was read out on state TV, at the Raba El-Adwyia mosque square in Cairo.
