Judge halts parking plans

College officials to appeal decision requiring full environmental report of building demo
By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Plans to demolish portions of a native garden and the neighboring building on the College of San Mateo campus were halted by a judge who agreed the trustees failed to do a full environmental impact report a ruling the district will appeal. Last year, Friends of the College of San
Mateo Garden led a lawsuit against the San Mateo County Community College District and its Board of Trustees calling for a full environmental impact report of the possible demolition of Building 20, home to programs like horticulture and oristry, along with portions of the neighboring small garden and three greenhouses. The trustees had approved the demolition as part of a plan to add 125 to 200 parking spaces. District plans include
retaining most of the garden. On Thursday, Judge Clifford Cretan sided with the garden supporters that a full environmental report would be needed before the district could demolish the buildings. On Wednesday, the Board of Trustees voted in closed session to appeal the decision. Cretans short ruling said the districts addendum to a 2006 plan provides inadequate analysis of the change in the project
[and] is a violation of [the] (California Environmental Quality Act), where the Building 20 complex is now planned to be demolished rather than renovated. Shawn Khan, a CSM student who helped found the group, said the plan deserved a full environmental study. We are condent that there are other ways

Foster Citys prized 15-acre spot adjacent to City Hall will be sold to a developer for $30 million if the council approves a business-term sheet at its Monday meeting. The city is already negotiating exclusively with The New Home Company LLC to build a senior residential community at the site with about 400 units of housing and 30,000 square feet of retail space. In October, the council picked Foster City Community Partners to build on the site and TNHC is acting as lead developer. The project is in its earliest stages and, if the council approves the business-term sheet, TNHC will open an escrow account within ve days and deposit the rst $500,000 toward

Bob Thompson is about to celebrate his 40th year as the owner of Bobs Barber Shop on 25th Avenue in San Mateo. The block has changed signicantly over the decades but Bobs looks exactly the same as it did when Thompson bought it back in 1972,
except for a few items such as the Joe Montana-signed 49ers pennant that hangs on the wall. When Thompson bought the business, there were ve barber shops in the business district but now there is only one. Salons are a more prevalent sight on the street now. Theres the post ofce, the church and then Bobs, Thompson, 67, said
about his seniority on the street. He calls barbering a good business and wonders why more do not take to the profession. He supported ve children as a barber and now has 10 grandchildren. It is a good steady business, Im always working, said Thompson, who
San Mateo Countys management, attorneys and administrative employees who work for management will start sharing their retirement costs equally beginning in September because of a budget imbalance that forces additional sacrices.

Thought for the Day

A ship is safe in harbor,but thats not what ships are for.
William G.T.Shedd,American theologian (1820-1894)
This Day in History
1912
British explorer Robert Falcon Scott, his expedition stranded in an Antarctic blizzard after failing to be the rst to reach the South Pole, wrote in his journal, We shall stick it out to the end but we are getting weaker of course and the end cannot be far. In 1638, Swedish colonists settled in present-day Delaware. In 1790, the tenth president of the United States, John Tyler, was born in Charles City County, Va. In 1792, Swedens King Gustav III died, nearly two weeks after he had been shot and mortally wounded by assassins during a masquerade party. In 1812, the rst White House wedding took place as Lucy Payne Washington, the sister of First Lady Dolley Madison, married Supreme Court Justice Thomas Todd. In 1871, the Royal Albert Hall in London was opened by Queen Victoria. In 1882, the Knights of Columbus was chartered in Connecticut. In 1943, World War II rationing of meat, fats and cheese began. In 1951, Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were convicted of conspiracy to commit espionage. (They were executed in June 1953.) The Rodgers and Hammerstein musical The King and I opened on Broadway. In 1962, Jack Paar hosted NBCs Tonight show for the nal time, although the network aired a repeat the following night. (Johnny Carson debuted as host in Oct. 1962.) In 1971, Army Lt. William L. Calley Jr. was convicted of murdering 22 Vietnamese civilians in the My Lai (mee ly) massacre. (Calley ended up serving three years under house arrest.) A jury in Los Angeles recommended the death penalty for Charles Manson and three female followers for the 1969 TateLa Bianca murders. (The sentences were later commuted.) In 1973, the last United States combat troops left South Vietnam, ending Americas direct military involvement in the Vietnam War.

Hamburglar strikes at Maine McDonalds
AUGUSTA, Maine A real-life Hamburglar has struck at a Maine McDonalds. Police say a young man, seemingly inspired by the pattie purloining character once featured in McDonalds advertising campaigns, ran between a car and the takeout window at the Augusta restaurant Sunday night as an employee handed a bag of food to a driver. A witness agged down an ofcer leaving a nearby convenience store. Lt. Christopher Massey, acting on a description of the hungry thief, found him in the parking lot of a rival fast food restaurant diving into a McDonalds bag. Massey tells the Kennebec Journal the suspect swore and ran into the woods. He was never caught. Massey says the three young men who had their food stolen didnt know the burger thief. McDonalds replaced the stolen food, worth about $20. for National Geographic and a 3D theatrical release on the Deepsea Challenger missions, which included his seven-mile descent to the oceans deepest point in the Mariana Trench in James the western Pacic. Cameron It was the deepest solo dive ever, surpassing the ve-mile descent he made a few weeks earlier. The lm could be ready late this year or early next year, depending on how much additional shooting he and his colleagues need to do, Cameron said in a telephone interview Tuesday night, after the premiere of a 3-D version of his 1997 blockbuster Titanic, which sails into theaters next week. Were shooting the whole expedition as a 3-D film, Cameron said from London, where he had rushed for the Titanic screening after completing his dive Monday in the one-man sub Deepsea Challenger, which he helped design. Much of the design effort focused on building small, lightweight digital 3-D cameras that could withstand ocean pressures of 16,000 pounds a square inch, Cameron said. They were a huge leap forward from the cameras he used to shoot his rst 3D lm, the 2003 Titanic documentary Ghosts of the Abyss. Theyre a tenth of the size and weight of the 3-D camera that I used to go down to Titanic depth, Cameron said. We spent a fair bit of the development budget of the sub guring out how we would be lighting it and how we would do 3-D photography at full ocean depth. We did tackle a lot of challenges, but always, the thinking was this expedition is going to get paid for by a lm. Cameron has been planning the expedition since 2005, while he simultaneously worked on the 3-D conversion of Titanic and made Avatar, the sci- blockbuster that displaced Titanic as the biggest modern blockbuster with $2.8 billion worldwide. Titanic co-star Bill Paxton, who dove with Cameron to the wreck of the ship for Ghosts of the Abyss, said he had nervously followed accounts of the lmmakers dive and that his rst words when seeing him before Tuesdays premiere were, Godspeed, Jim Cameron. I was very apprehensive and so anxious to hear that he was OK, Paxton said. Ive been two and a half miles down at the wreck of the Titanic with him. Thats one thing. But seven miles, thats like going to the moon. In a oneman sub thats only been tested to a certain depth. ... Heres a guy who bets his life on the technology he makes. Ive been very lucky to have a front-row seat to one of the most remarkable careers in Hollywood and beyond.

San Bruno makes plans for $70M settlement

Amount includes five properties acquired by Pacific Gas and Electric
By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Police reports
Double crime
Two laptops, two paintings and two iPods were taken from a residence on Hillcrest Drive in Belmont before 6:31 p.m. Saturday, March 24.
A settlement between Pacific Gas and Electric and the city of San Bruno for the fatal 2010 gas explosion will be placed in an investment account until a nonprofit can be established. On Tuesday, the San Bruno City Council voted 4-0, with Councilwoman Irene OConnell absent, to amend the citys investment policy. Under the settlement with PG&E announced earlier this month, the city will receive $68.75 million and five vacant lots in the Glenview/Crestmoor neighborhood. A separate nonprofit agency will be created to oversee the funds. Until then, the city will invest the funds in a separate account overseen by City Treasurer John Marty. City Manager Connie Jackson estimated setting up a nonprofit could take nine to 12 months. Once established, the nonprofit would start to decide what to do with the funds and the land. Jackson described the settlement as an opportunity to address the damage experienced by the community as a whole, which goes beyond the actual cost of rebuilding the neighborhood. The agreement, which totals $70 million, includes $68.75 million and five properties with the combined value of $1.25 million. Properties included in the settlement are vacant lots previously procured by the utility agency.
PG&E gave homeowners in the explosion area a buyout opportunity. Thirteen properties were secured by PG&E, said PG&E spokeswoman Brittany Chord. So far, three homes were sold, two lots were sold and three properties are in the process of being remodeled before being sold, she said. The $70 million agreement was made in response to the Sept. 9, 2010 explosion and fire that killed eight residents, injured many more, destroyed 38 homes and damaged an additional 70. It is in addition to money already committed by PG&E to the community. However, the most recent settlement does change the previous commitments. For example, PG&E also pledged a $70 million trust to cover direct costs related to the recovery like staff time and infrastructure repairs. That amount was lowered to $50 million as a result of the most recent settlement, said Jackson. These two pots of money are in addition to money pledged to help residents rebuild and also to possible restitution payments sought by residents in lawsuits.
Jackson also noted receiving a number of questions about whether the city waived any rights in the agreement. San Bruno retained its rights to be involved in work done by the California Public Utilities Commission or any sort of safety advocacy in the future, she said. San Bruno officials have been vocal in safety conversations about pipelines since the explosion. In September 2011, the National Transportation and Safety Board posted its final 140-page report for the year-long investigation of the incident. The gas-fed flames were roaring for more than 90 minutes before workers were able to manually close valves to cut off the ruptured line. Rebuilding has started and is still ongoing. State investigators issued a report earlier this month blasting Pacific Gas & Electric Co. for keeping disorganized, difficult-toaccess records about its natural gas pipelines in the years preceding the fatal San Bruno explosion. PG&E could face millions of dollars in fines for violating state and federal safety rules. The city recently launched a website, www.rebuildcrestmoor.org, with updates about neighborhood rebuilding and infrastructure reconstruction.

Bomb squad removes explosives from business complex
A San Mateo County sheriffs bomb squad removed dozens of detonators and two pounds of explosive detonation cord from a business complex in San Carlos on Tuesday. More than 50 commercial-grade detonators were discovered, along with the detonation cord, in a storage area in the 900 block of Washington Street at 1:05 p.m., according to the Sheriffs Ofce. Bomb squad technicians separated the detonators from the cord, which is manufactured from highly explosive plastics, ofcials said. The explosives were taken to a remote location and rendered safe, according to the Sheriffs Ofce. Investigators believe the bomb-making equipment had been collected from the home of a retired commercial explosive blaster who recently died.
A judge yesterday appointed two doctors to determine if a Daly City woman accused of torching her fathers home and a rear rental unit before attacking a responding police officer with an umbrella is mentally t to stand trial for attempted murder.

Three men and one juvenile are in custody after a home burglary was reported on the 1000 block of Holly Street in San Carlos Tuesday morning, according to police. At approximately 11 a.m., units from the San Carlos Patrol Bureau of the Sheriffs Ofce were dispatched to the residence that was ransacked where the reporting party said she saw two men running down the driveway carrying various items and later eeing in a red PT Cruiser. The homeowner arrived and conrmed several items were stolen. About 45 minutes later, an East Palo Alto police ofcer stopped the PT Cruiser, detained its four occupants and found items stolen from the San Carlos house inside. The men were identied as Jose Torres, 19, Agustin Lopez, 18, Antonio Sotelo, 22, and a juvenile all out of East Palo Alto, according to police. The San Mateo County Sheriffs Detective Bureau authored two search warrants for two addresses belonging to the suspects. The search warrants were served, and several additional pieces of stolen property from the Holly Street burglary were recovered, according to police. Suspects Torres, Lopez-Acosta and Sotelo-Moreno were arrested and booked into the San Mateo County Maguire Correctional Facility. The juvenile suspect was booked into the Youth Services Center in San Mateo. The case has been forwarded to the San Mateo County District Attorneys Ofce for prosecution, according to police.
Teen pleads not guilty in bomb threat

By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The teenage girl accused of using a fellow students email to send Burlingame High School administrators a false bomb threat that put the campus on lockdown pleaded not guilty yesterday. Christine Nicole Azzolino, 18, is charged with a misdemeanor count of making a false explosives report. She is not required to personally appear in court so attorney Jeff Jackson entered the plea on her behalf and set a July 9 jury trial date. Jackson said he thinks the case is likely to resolve before reaching that point but
declined further comment on other issues that may have been in play when his client allegedly sent the email at approximately 2 p.m. Feb. 10. School ofcials immediately locked down the campus and Christine tracked the message Azzolino back to the male student whose account it originated from and police swept the campus and the boys possessions with four bomb-snifng dogs. No bombs were found and no one was injured.
The lockdown was lifted shortly after 2:30 p.m. Police ultimately gured out that Azzolino actually sent the message from the boys account and she was arrested the following Monday, according to prosecutors who say she said there was no intent to actually carry out the threat. Jackson also said Azzolino had no ill intent toward either the school or the boy whose email address she used. Azzolino posted $50,000 cash bail shortly after her arrest and has been free from custody. She is currently attending a different school where Jackson said she doing much better. A misdemeanor conviction can carry nes and up to a year in jail.

Sexual assault attempted in San Carlos

Police in San Carlos are on the lookout for a man who robbed and attempted to sexually assault a woman on the 1600 block of Laurel Street early Wednesday morning. At approximately 6:30 a.m., a woman arrived to work and tried to enter the business through the rear entrance at the alley between Laurel and Walnut streets when she was grabbed from behind by a large white man who stated he had a knife. He threatened to use it if she did not deactivate the alarm. As she was forced into the business, the man attempted to remove an article of her clothing but the business alarm sounded and frightened him from the scene but not before he took the womans purse, according to the San Carlos Patrol Bureau of the San Mateo County Sheriffs Ofce. The man is described as 6 feet 5 inches, 300 pounds, in his 30s and wearing a black baseball hat with a San Francisco Giants logo on the front, a dark hooded sweatshirt and blue jeans, according to police. Deputies searched the area but were unable to nd him. Anyone with information on the case is asked to contact Sgt. Andy Armando at 363-4347.

Brown defends tax plan

By Don Thompson
STATE GOVERNMENT
Inspired by a breast cancer survivor in his district, state Sen. Joe Simitian, D-Palo Alto, is reintroducing legislation to improve breast cancer detection. Senate Bill 1538 would require that following a mammogram, women with dense breast tissue be informed that: They have dense breast tissue; Dense breast tissue can obscure abnormalities (i.e., cancer) on a mammogram; and that, they may wish to discuss the potential value of additional screening(s) with their doctors. Despite broad bipartisan support, a similar bill was vetoed by Gov. Jerry Brown last year. Since the veto, Virginia has joined the roster of states with breast density notication laws, and two separate studies from the rst year of a similar laws implementation in Connecticut have shown a 100 percent increase in breast cancer detection rates in women with dense breast tissue.
SACRAMENTO Gov. Jerry Brown on Wednesday defended his characterization that his tax initiative primarily helps schools, rejecting criticism from the backer of a rival tax proposal who says he is distorting the benets. Los Angeles attorney Molly Munger told the Associated Press last week that Brown is being untruthful by saying most of the money from his initiative will go to schools. She said she started running TV commercials about her initiative to get the truth out. As recently as last week, Brown told reporters 100 percent of the taxes hes pro-
posing would go to education. Brown said Wednesday that he is telling the truth. The tax goes to schools. Thats what it does, Brown told reporters after promoting his initiative to a gathering Jerry Brown of law enforcement leaders. Were dedicating the money to schools, it goes into a special account, and were going to do everything we can to protect our universities, protect our schools, but also balance the budget. His funding stream, however, is not as clear cut as Mungers.
Browns proposed initiative would help cover the states budget decit, provide money for local law enforcement and prevent deeper cuts to education and other services. His proposal, unlike Mungers, also would dedicate money to help counties deal with lower-level offenders who are now being diverted to jails instead of state prisons. His proposed initiative would raise the states sales tax by a quarter cent for ve years and raise income taxes on a sliding scale for seven years on people who make more than $250,000 a year. Under Californias voter-approved school funding guarantee, any increase to the states general fund automatically provides more money for schools.
Fletcher leaving the Republican Party in San Diego

field, in a city where Democrats hold a clear advantage in voter registration. Fletcher has lagged in recent polls that show a large number of undecided voters. The 35-year-old has broken ranks with Republicans several
times since joining the Assembly in 2009 and said he struggled with his party affiliation during his two terms in Sacramento. In all candor, I probably should have done it sooner, he told the Associated Press on Tuesday. Ive been a member of this party for almost 20 years. We have a system that is set up and designed for two parties and its a difcult move, but its what I believe in my heart is right.

White House: No contingencies for health care law
By Jim Kuhnhenn
Obituaries
Russell Timothy Nott died peacefully March 24, 2012 at the age of 68 with his family by his side. As the only child of Russell L. and Agnes Nott, Russ was born at St. Josephs Hospital in San Francisco. He was a graduate of Saint Ignatius High School and San Francisco State University. Russ proudly served his country in the U.S. Marine Corps. He is survived by his wife of 45 years, Mary Ann (Robey) Nott. Their love affair began in San Francisco and then moved to Millbrae, where they started their family. Father to Christopher Nott and Jennifer Torres, loving father-in-law to Jess Torres and Melissa Nott, cherished Papa to Jack and Joseph Torres and Abigail Nott. Russ served as an inspiration to his family in everything he accomplished in his life. Russ began his career with Allstate in 1969 and served his clients with integrity right up to his passing. Russ also gave selflessly to his community as both a Suicide Prevention Hotline volunteer and as a ski teacher for the Tahoe Adaptive Ski School, sharing his love of skiing with the less fortunate. Russ loved to travel the globe with Mary Ann, his camera equipment in tow, bringing home his wonderful perspectives of the world through his lens. Russ enjoyed spending time in Lake Tahoe, first teaching his children to ski and later taking hikes with his grandchildren. Friends and family are invited to the visitation 2 p.m.-5 p.m. Sunday, April 1 and to attend the 4 p.m. vigil service at the Chapel of the Highlands, 194 Millwood at El Camino Real in Millbrae. A funeral mass will be celebrated 10 a.m. Monday, April 2 at Saint Dunstan Church, 1133 Broadway, Millbrae. Committal will follow the services at Holy Cross Catholic Cemetery in Colma. In lieu of flowers donations can be made to the American Cancer Society.
WASHINGTON Voicing optimism, the White House on Wednesday said it is too early to devise contingency plans that anticipate the Supreme Court striking down any portion of President Barack Obamas health care law. Separately, the White House says it has every condence in the solicitor generals handling of the high court debate over the health care law. White House spokesman Josh Earnest said that after three days of oral arguments before the court, the White House remained focused on enacting all the pro-
visions of the law. If there is a reason or a need for us to consider some contingencies down the line, then well do it then, Earnest told reporters. There are a lot of different things that they could nd, one way or the other, Earnest said of the nine justices, who are expected to rule on the 2010 laws constitutionality by the end of June. We remain condent that theyre going to nd the entire thing constitutional. Earnest faced a barrage of questions in the face of skepticism voiced by conservative justices that indicated that the laws key provision requiring most Americans to obtain health insur-
ance was in jeopardy. Anybody who believes you can try to predict the outcome of the Supreme Court based solely on the questions of the justices is not a very good student of the Supreme Court, Earnest said, adding that conservative judges in a lower court were equally tough in their questions only to decide that the law was constitutional. Earlier in the day, White House counsel Kathryn Ruemmler issued a statement saying Solicitor General Donald Verrilli has ably and skillfully represented the United States before the Supreme Court. Ruemmler praised Verrilli for his keen judgment and unquestionable integrity.

Gingrich revamps campaign to deny Romney delegates

Trayvons parents go to Capitol Hill

By Suzanne Gamboa
WASHINGTON In a packed forum on Capitol Hill on Tuesday, the parents of Trayvon Martin found support among members of Congress who turned the death of their 17-year-olds son into a rallying cry against racial proling. Martins parents spoke briey before a Democrats-only congressional panel as cameras clicked noisily in front of them. Many in the crowd, which lled the seats and lined the walls, strained to catch a glimpse of the parents whose son was shot and killed Feb. 26 in a Sanford, Fla.
gated community. Trayvon was our son, but Trayvon is your son, Sybrina Fulton, Martins mother, told the panel. A lot of people can relate to our situation and it breaks their heart like it breaks our heart. Martins father, Tracy Martin, thanked everyone who is holding the legacy of Trayvon. Trayvon is sadly missed and we will continue to ght for justice for him, said Tracy Martin, who wore a weary look. During the two-hour forum, the lawmakers and witnesses openly criticized Dali Rizzetto the police investigation of the shooting Dali Rizzetto, born July 26, 1917 in Lucca, Italy, died and the failure of police to arrest the peacefully in her sleep on March 27, 2012 at the age of 94. admitted shooter, George Zimmerman. She is survived by her two sons, Bob (Marilee) and Jay (Diane), a brother, Harry, six grandchildren and eight greatgrandchildren. Dali left her beloved Lucca, Italy at the age of 17 along with her mother, brothers and sisters to join their father in Santa Cruz. Not long after, at an Italian picnic in Santa Cruz, she met Angelo Rizzetto who was to become her husband for 57 years until his death in 1993. Dalis generosity and kind heart found their way into the many ways she reached out to help others. She always had an encouraging word, a cup of coffee and a homemade cookie, or simply a smile to offer. She was a wonderful Tuscan cook and enjoyed cooking for family gatherings well into her 80s. Family and friends may visit 4 p.m. Thursday, March 29 at the Chapel of the Highlands, 194 Millwood Drive at El Camino Real in Millbrae with a 7 p.m. vigil service. The funeral mass will be celebrated 10:30 a.m. Friday, March 30 at St. Roberts Church, 1380 Crystal Springs Road in San Bruno. Committal will follow at Holy Cross Catholic Cemetery in Colma. Donations in Dalis memory can be made to a charity of choice.

ho says county budget hearings are dry? As Information Services Department head Chris Flatmoe sidled up to the podium to deliver his presentation to the Board of Supervisors, President Adrienne Tissier quipped, Im assuming you know how to use the technology. Not to be outdone, Supervisor Don Horsley added, If not, me and Carole can help you. *** The Metropolitan Transportation Commission board approved a regional agreement Wednesday to fully fund the electrification of Caltrain. The agreement between the California High-Speed Rail Authority and more than a half-dozen Bay Area public agencies will use local, regional and federal funding to leverage hundreds of millions of dollars in highspeed rail matching funds for investment in electrification and modernization of Caltrain. The cost of the project is expected to be about $1.5 billion and could be completed by 2020. *** Dishcrawl plans an underground Silicon Valley foie gras battle where chefs from all over the Bay Area will host individual foie dinners where diners can rate the dishes and the chefs will battle one another. At least one chef from a San Mateo restaurant is set to participate. The location of the event will not be announced until the day before the April 20 event, however. Dishcrawl hosts events where diners play a flat fee and sample dishes from several restaurants, usually in a downtown, in a walking tour. A portion of the proceeds from the event will benefit
Judge halts fire contract

A plan to contract Half Moon Bay Fire services to the state was temporarily halted the week of March 31, 2007 until a San Mateo County Superior Court Judge could decide whether a referendum petition by local firefighters was legal. A court order barred the Half Moon Bay Fire Protection District from carrying out its plan to contract with Cal Fire for coastside fire service until a hearing set for May 2007. The lawsuit was the recent step firefighters took to prevent the contract with Cal Fire after the fire board voted for the contract earlier that year. The firefighters collected hundreds of signatures on a referendum petition seeking to overturn an earlier decision to contract with the states Cal Fire by sending the issue to the voters. The fire board rejected the petition on a technicality, claiming it was not drafted correctly.

Schools not meeting the Academic Performance Index score of 800 the state goal were to be required to improve five points schoolwide as well as in various subgroups, such as English learners or various ethnic groups.
Sea change for Emerald Hills Association

Two Emerald Hills homeowners long at odds with a home association which advocated restricted zoning policies unseated the current board president and beat out a past member for spots on the board of directors the week of March 31, 2007. The election of Michael Mangini and Adriana Botto, members of the grassroots Emerald Hills Community Coalition, was heralded as a win for those opposed to the controversial design review process and stylistic guidelines they found stifling to personal choice and residential improvements. Mangini and Botto beat former Boardmember Helen Phillips and current President Sallie Martin nearly two to one during a meeting that drew more than 300 residents from the Emerald Hills and Oak Knoll Manor, Nancy Mangini said.

could make it happen dont want anything to do with it. Further, Cargilltown would be unusually vulnerable to the fabled next California earthquake. After all, it would be a city built on Bayfill (not the most stable of substances), excruciatingly close to the San Andreas Fault, next to the Bay and thus susceptible to catastrophic flooding should the elaborate dams and levees that DMB proposes break. Then there is the inevitable prospect of rising sea levels. As Hurricane Katrina so starkly demonstrated, there is a limit to the effectiveness of man-made constraints against the water. I do not believe that anyone can approve, in good conscience, a project that could put people at unnecessary risk. I have lived in the Bay Area all my life, and I love everything about it except the traffic. Given the fact that there are 12,000 houses being added to Redwood City, I would say there will be at least 12,000 cars added to the roads. Now, despite DMBs claims to be fostering a transit-oriented community, many of the proposed transit routes through Cargilltown draw much needed public funding and attention away from our current public-transit system. At any rate, given the car-happy nature of Americans, it is likely that the denizens of this city will spend a fair amount of time in
Development on the Bay: A bad idea

By Henry Ruehl
have noticed that the developers behind Cargills proposed Saltworks project in Redwood City prefer to talk about their plans without mentioning the San Francisco Bay itself. While I dont work in the construction or real estate industries, I do know that the favorite slogan of Realtors is Location, location, location. I therefore believe that to talk about a development of this magnitude requires some coverage of the proposed location. The San Francisco Bay salt ponds in which Cargills proposed new city would be built was once wetlands, and could still be turned into around 1,400 acres of wetlands. It takes no great mind to see that once 12,000 houses and other buildings are built on this location, an incredible conservation opportunity vanishes. Even if you do not care about conservation or the environment in particular, the Cargill/DMB venture is beset by logistical and practical issues. As always in a drought-ridden state, there is first and foremost the concern of water. Quenching the thirst of a city of 32,000 via a convoluted and complex transfer of private water rights from Kern County, as DMB has proposed, is, as the San Francisco Chronicle pointed out, both unprecedented and unwise. No wonder the two key water districts that

their automobiles. This will both raise greenhouse-gas emissions and traffic congestion. Finally, the financial success of the venture can be called into question. Any real estate project involves offsetting immense costs with the promise of income. Now, given that there are more than two million foreclosed homes across the country ripe for the buying, commercial success with a large-scale new housing venture is by no means certain. I know that, were I in the market for a new home, I would not pick a place on Bayfill in a major earthquake zone that will be prone to flooding as sea levels rise, has no secure water supply, is located in an area of heavy traffic, and stymies efforts to conserve the natural beauty and wonder of our Bay. While I dont presume to speak for my entire generation, I hope that you will bear these points in mind when considering the pros and cons of this ill-fated project.

Needless legislation
n the words of Gov. Jerry Brown, not every human problem deserves a law. Brown made the pronouncement during his September legislative veto session in a backhanded way of saying legislators should perhaps focus their efforts elsewhere. Perhaps on more pressing matters such as the state budget and other needed reforms? This particular statement was in response to legislation that would impose a $25 ne on children who ski or snowboard without a helmet. Wearing helmets while engaging in potentially dangerous situations is important, but as Brown wrote in his veto message, parents have the ability and responsibility to make good choices for their children. Agreed. The same could be said for our society as a whole. Some legislation is warranted, some is not. Case in point. In another in the inexorable parade of random legislation coming from the halls of the state Capitol, Republican Assemblywoman Kristin Olsen, R-Modesto, wrote a bill that would eliminate pension and retiree benets for teachers who have an inappropriate relationship with a student at the same school even if the student is an adult. The bill is in response to the February story in which Modestos Enochs High School teacher James Hooker announced he was leaving his job to move in with 18-year-old student Jordan Powers, who also left the school to take classes through independent study. The creep factor is high in this situation, but there is no evidence the two began the relationship when she was a minor. So, in essence, at this point, theirs is a consenting relationship among adults. Even if the law passes and is signed by the governor, which would be shocking, it would have no impact on Hooker since it was not on the books when he made his choices. And the chances of such a situation happening again are practically nil. I get the sentiment, I do. The relationship is highly questionable and Hooker should know better. If he was a current teacher, he should be red. But what happened remains within the connes of the law. If the bill is passed, who is to say where such legislation would stop? It reminds me of the push for Caylees Law throughout the nation, including a July effort by several California legislators which had several variations. One would make it a felony to fail to report the death of disappearance of a child, 14 or under, to law enforcement within 24 hours; another would make it a felony to fail to report a missing child under the age of 12 within 48 hours. The legislation was in response to the Florida death of 2-yearold Caylee Anthony, daughter of Casey Anthony, who was found not guilty of rstdegree murder of her child in July. While that legislation may have been well meaning, it was completely unnecessary since nearly every single parent in the nation would report their child missing immediately. It might put some teeth into a court case, but anyone who may not immediately report their child missing would probably not be thinking of the impact of such legislation at that time. Assemblywoman Holly Mitchell, D-Culver City, introduced one of the bills in July and it was referred to the Committee on Public Safety in February. It is not for me to judge what the intent of that legislation, or of Olsens. It could be that the legislators were angered by the situations and wanted to do something about it. Or it could be that they were looking for attention that comes from such salacious cases. Either way, if the bills are successful, they wont have any impact on the cases that spawned them, and wont have much of an impact on future cases. Instead, it will be a situation in which two more unnecessary laws would be on the books. Our legislators time would be better spent on larger legislation that wont have a narrow scope and would have greater impact and meaning.

The Republican budget plan

The Boston Herald
onths ago many in his party were clamoring for Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., to jump into the presidential race. But he knew that the job he already had as chairman of the House Budget Committee was just as critical to the nations future. He once again stepped into that deepening leadership gap in Washington, D.C., the one left wide open by a president who apparently wants to turn us into Greece. And in doing so Ryan proved he has the
Other voices
courage and the intellectual firepower to lead the Congress and the nation to a better place. At the heart of the new Republican budget plan is an effort to simplify the tax code for individuals ... and close some loopholes all aimed at growing the economy. No talk of class warfare here, just an effort to reduce the deficit with some sensible spending discipline. And instead of growing the national debt
as a share of gross domestic product (it currently consumes about 73 percent of the economy), gradually reducing that by about 15 percent over the next 10 years. The Ryan plan also tackles that third rail of American politics Medicare. While Democrats no doubt cant wait to run yet another commercial of a Ryan lookalike throwing some senior citizen off a cliff, the truth is that the only way to save Medicare is to change it. But courage is at a premium on Capitol Hill this year and Ryans plan will likely languish. But that doesnt mean it isnt the right path.
Letter to the editor

Mandate or not, we need health care for all
Editor, Mitt Romney put it clearly. He does not worry about poor people, nor does he worry about firing people in the middle class and sending their jobs abroad. It is the wealthy and rich that he is fighting to support in every possible way. Thus, he needs to defeat Rick Santorum, Newt Gingrich and Ron Paul. The Republicans are trying to drive up the cost of health insurance to satisfy the lobbyists in Washington and to pay back the contributions that got members of GOP to the government jobs that they so much hate. We need universal health care to address the medical needs and services that will get Americans healthier, reduce costs and make sure the people who can afford to pay for health care will do so.

durable goods rose strongly last month, a sign that businesses continue to invest. The Commerce Department said before the market opened that orders for durable goods, which are dened as products expected to last at least three years, rose 2.2 percent in February. Orders for machinery, computers, autos and aircraft led the rise. The positive economic news reduced demand for U.S. Treasury debt. The yield on the 10-year Treasury rose to 2.21 percent from 2.19 percent before the report. As stocks fell, traders again sought the safety of Treasurys and the yield fell back to 2.20 percent. Health insurance companies declined more than the broader market as the U.S. Supreme Court wrapped up oral arguments in a challenge to President Barack Obamas massive health care overhaul. Aetna Inc. and Health Net Inc. lost 1 percent; Catalyst Health Solutions fell 1.4 percent. Insurers lost ground because of tough questions from key justices, a signal to some observers that they might strike down the law. Dave Shove, an analyst with BMO Capital Markets, said most people expect the law to help big health insurers by extending coverage to millions more Americans.

Organic pasta maker Annies shares soar in debut

By Anne Dinnocenzio
NEW YORK Investors ate up shares of pasta maker Annies Inc. Wednesday, which had the biggest opening day gain for an IPO this year. Its the latest sign of the pull of natural and organic foods for consumers. Shares soared 89 percent to close at $35.92. Shares of Proto Labs Inc., a Maple Plain, Minn.-based provider of custom parts, soared 81 percent in their first day of trading in late February. Best known for its signature macaroni and cheese with pasta shaped like
rabbits, Annies now makes about 125 organic and natural food products and is sold in more than 25,000 store locations, almost all in the U.S. Its focus is catering to what it calls gatekeeper moms, who are willing to spend 25 to 30 percent more for a healthier alternative to staples such as crackers. This isnt a surprise. It is a brand name that everyone knows, and the natural organic food sector is pretty hot right now, said Tiffany Ng, a research analyst at IPO investment advisory firm Renaissance Capital. The U.S. is the worlds largest market for foods labeled organic and natural, with sales exceeding $40 billion
in 2010, Annies said in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The company said that it expects demand for such products to grow faster than demand for food overall. A tough economy has kept shoppers appetite for some pricier organic foods in check. In 2004, 13 percent of 5,000 shoppers polled consumed an organic beverage or food at least once every two weeks, according to market researcher NPD Group. That figure went up to 25 percent in early 2008, but growth has stalled, according to Darren Seifer, NPDs food and beverage industry analyst.

Clear Channel to delay inserting ads into iHeart

LOS ANGELES Clear Channel CEO Bob Pittman says that the radio company will keep part of its iHeart Radio online service ad-free for at least a few more months, explaining that a consumer backlash against ads on Pandora Media Inc.s competing service serves as a cautionary tale. Pittman told the Associated Press that negative listener reaction to Pandoras in-stream ads has convinced Clear Channel that they are disruptive and annoying. There are a lot of negative comments about in-stream ads, Pittman said in an interview.
Yahoo shareholder blasts company for board snub

SAN FRANCISCO A major Yahoo shareholder passed over for a seat on the troubled Internet companys board is blasting the decision as illogical. Hedge fund manager Daniel Loeb described the snub as a glaring example of shoddy corporate governance in a Wednesday letter to Yahoo CEO Scott Thompson. Loeb contends he would have been a better representative for Yahoo Inc. shareholders because he controls a 5.8 percent stake in the company through his fund, Third Point LLC. Loeb has spent about $1 billion buying Yahoo shares since September.

The legend goes that a young David used a rock, a slingshot and a little divine intervention to take down a giant. To do the impossible. To do what only he believed he could. And thus he became immortal. So years from now, when people re-tell the story of the 20112012 Aragon girls soccer team, theyll say Rachel Killigrew used a ball and her right foot to take down a soccer giant to do the impossible and do what only she and her teammates believed they could. And thus, Killigrew became a legend, a two-time Central Coast Section champion and the San Mateo Daily Journal Girls Soccer Player of the Year. Perhaps it isnt fair to say that the Aragon captains goal in the 40th minute against Archbishop Mitty in the CCS nals is the sole reason why today we honor her as the countys best player. Her numbers are solid (5 goals, 8 assists) despite playing a position on the eld that doesnt always produce them. Shes a member of the Peninsula Athletic Leagues All-League First Team. But the truth is, the magnitude of the aforementioned moment, that swing of her right foot and that stunning goal sums up why, even in a year when other girls scored more goals, did ashier things with the ball, heck, even defended better than No. 19, there is no one better than Killigrew with the weight and hopes of her team and the entire Aragon Faithful squarely on her shoulders, Killigrew stepped up, just like she had all sea-

Knights rounding into shape Closing

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
With just two seniors in the starting lineup in addition to a pair of sophomores and just one returning starter,Hillsdale baseball manager Neal Donohoe expected his team to experience some growing pains early in the season. Those growing pains manifested themselves during the non-league season as the Knights won just two of eight preseason games. But since Peninsula Athletic League play started, that youth has started to turn into a solid ball club. The Knights have now won two of three, including an 8-3 win over visiting Carlmont Wednesday afternoon. We nally started putting all three parts of our game together, Donohoe said. We swung the bats really well. We put a lot of balls in play. Hillsdale (2-1 PAL Bay, 4-6 overall) scored in ve of six innings to all but run away with the victory. The Knights put the pressure on Carlmont (1-2, 5-4) right away with an unearned run in the bottom of the rst. They were set down in order in the second inning, but scored a single run in the third, added three more in the fourth, a pair of runs in the fth and closed out their scoring with an insurance run in the sixth. All which was more than enough offense for starting pitcher Connor Taylor, who pitched into the sixth inning, allowing just two runs on three hits. Hes pitched solid, Donohoe said. Hes keeps us in games consistently. Robbie Foiles relieved Taylor and despite getting into a jam in the top of the seventh, held Carlmont to one run on two hits in just over an inning of work. Harry Shannon, a junior who was up and down with the varsity squad as a sophomore last season, is starting to nd his groove at the plate. After picking up a big hit in an 8-7 win over Capuchino last Friday, Shannon picked

up three more big knocks Wednesday, nishing a triple shy of the cycle. Shannon ripped a single to right in the rst, hit a line drive over the fence in left eld in the third and just missed another homer in the fth, settling for a double. He walked in his nal plate appearance in the sixth. [This] is the best game Ive seen him play ever, Donohoe said. He had the big hit against Cap and you could just see his condence build. Shannons homer was a big one because Carlmont had just tied the game at 1 in the top of the inning on a Jason Marley sacrice y. Shannon untied the game just like that. Donohoe believes Shannons move from shortstop where he was lling in for an injured Armando Fajardo back to his more
m proud of the accomplishment but its more than just me. Its an indication about how good softball is here in Belmont and San Carlos. Ive had a lot of people help me. Ive been very privileged to have a lot of good people around me. I think Ive been blessed with the talent Ive gotten, the help thats been with me. Ive been very fortunate. The preceeding is a quote from Carlmont softball coach Jim Liggett, who said that to me in June 2006 interview just before his induction to the California Coaches Association Hall of Fame. It is just as true now as it was then. In 2006, Liggett had just wrapped up his 31st season and had earned his 772nd win. Now, six years later, Liggett is approaching the 900-win mark. The Scots 4-3 win over Hillsdale and a 10-0 shellacking of Burlingame last week put him at 897 wins, giving Liggett a good chance of breaking the record at the Wilcox tournament beginning Saturday. As Liggett keeps winning, he puts more distance on the wins list between him and the next closest pursuer. Its been his (record) for many years, said Mark Tennis, executive editor for CalHi Sports, the foremost authority on

Mariners top As in Japan season opener

By Jim Armstrong
Mariners 3, As 1
I tried everything, MLB, ESPN, and I still dont know who won. I got here early to check it, he said. In Tampa, Fla., Yankees manager Joe Girardi kept switching channels and seemed a bit frustrated he Ichiro Suzuki couldnt nd the game on his clubhouse ofce TV. Hours later in Peoria, Ariz., San Diego manager Bud Black and some of the Padres tuned in before their spring training game. Asked whether he watched, Houston Astros closer Brett Myers turned sarcastic. Was there a game on? he said. Later in the day, the MLB Network changed its programming schedule for Thursdays wrapup of the two-game series between the Mariners and As. A live telecast was added at 5 a.m. EDT to go with the previously planned replays, network spokeswoman Lorraine Fisher said. Felix Hernandez combined with two relievers on a six-hitter as MLB opened its season in Tokyo for the fourth time. Dustin Ackley homered and singled in the go-ahead run in the 11th. The continent switch didnt help the As, who became the rst team to lose eight straight openers since Philadelphia from 1985-92, according to STATS LLC. MLB and the players association are using the series to assist rebuilding in Japan following last years earthquake and tsunami. A group of players and coaches traveled to the disaster zone on Tuesday to conduct a base-
TOKYO Ichiro Suzuki looked perfectly at home, putting on the kind of show that made him so popular in Japan. Too bad most fans across America couldnt follow along. Suzuki got four hits and plenty of attention as the Seattle Mariners beat the Oakland Athletics 3-1 in 11 innings Wednesday night in the Major League Baseball opener. A capacity crowd of 44,227 lit up Tokyo Dome with camera ashes every time Suzuki came to bat. He drew a standing ovation when he took his position in right eld in the nal inning. It was very special to open in Japan, said Suzuki, a star for nine seasons in Osaka with the Orix Blue Wave. I wanted to have fun and give the fans something at this special time and wanted to share a special moment with them. The festivities for opening day were awesome, the detail, the time they put into it. I loved every minute of it. I love being in Japan, he said. A lot of big leaguers arriving early at camp wanted to enjoy it, too, but couldnt. The game began at 6:09 a.m. EDT and was televised live only to the Seattle and Oakland markets. The MLB Network showed it on tape delay at 9 a.m. the game already was in extra innings when the nationwide telecast carried the rst pitch. I got here at 5:15 in the morning and went in to turn on the game and couldnt nd it anywhere, Atlanta manager Fredi Gonzalez complained in Kissimmee, Fla., where the Braves hosted the New York Yankees in an exhibition.
ball clinic. The rest of the big league teams start to get going April 4, when the renamed Miami Marlins open their new ballpark against the World Series champion St. Louis Cardinals. In the meantime, the As and Mariners will resume playing spring training games this weekend. Dropped from leadoff to third in the batting order as he started his 12th big league season, Suzuki singled in the rst when be beat shortstop Cliff Penningtons throw after his grounder over the mound was deected by Oakland starter Brandon McCarthy. Suzuki singled on a grounder to shortstop in the fourth, singled to center in the sixth and had an RBI single to center in the 11th. Were trying to stretch out the lineup and have the guys feed off each other, Seattle manager Eric Wedge said. I think Ichiro hitting in the third spot is the right place. Were going to be a very offensive ballclub this year. The 38-year-old Suzuki set a big league record with 10 consecutive 200-hit seasons before falling short last year. Hes a hitting machine, said Oakland manager Bob Melvin, who managed Suzuki with the Mariners in 2003 and 2004. It doesnt matter where he bats in the lineup. Thats what he does hit. Ackley homered in the fourth off McCarthy, and Oaklands Kurt Suzuki doubled in a run in the bottom half. The score remained 1-all until the 11th, when Brendan Ryan doubled against Andrew Carignan (0-1), Chone Figgins sacriced and Ackley singled to center. I was able to put a good swing on that one, Ackley said. Our team is off to a good start, and thats all that matters. Jerry Blevins relieved, Ackley stole second
and Ichiro Suzuki singled for a two-run lead. Brandon League closed it out for the save. Tom Wilhelmsen (1-0) got the win with two hitless innings. Cuban defector Yoenis Cespedes, who signed a $36 million, four-year contract with Oakland, was 1 for 3 with a seventh-inning double and two strikeouts in his major league debut. Oakland slugger Manny Ramirez did not make the trip. He must sit out the rst 50 games for a second violation of MLBs drug policy. Hes eligible to return on May 30, his 40th birthday. Hernandez, coming off a 14-14 season, allowed ve hits in eight innings, struck out six and walked none, throwing 104 pitches. McCarthy gave up one run and six hits in seven innings with three strikeouts and no walks. While Oakland threatened repeatedly, the As were 1 for 14 with runners in scoring position. They got bigger hits than we did at the end, Melvin said. We hit some balls hard, but they just didnt get in. NOTES: Bartolo Colon starts Thursday the As, opposed by Jason Vargas. ... The New York Mets and Chicago Cubs opened in Tokyo in 2000, followed by the New York Yankees and Tampa Bay (2004), and Boston and Oakland (2008). Seattle and Oakland had been scheduled to play at the Tokyo Dome in March 2003, but the series was scrapped because of the threat of war in Iraq. ... A pregame video presentation honored victims and survivors of the March 11, 2011, earthquake and tsunami. The video was narrated by Derek Jeter, Bobby Valentine and Cal Ripken Jr. ... The eight straight losses in openers is an As record, one shy of the major league mark shared by the New York Giants (1893-1901)
Crawford, Schierholtz homer in Giants win

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. A pair of big swings by Brandon Crawford and Nate Schierholtz put the San Francisco Giants in a better mood on Wednesday. Crawford and Schierholtz homered to lead San Francisco to a 4-1 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers. Its time for all of us to start swinging the bat better, manager Bruce Bochy said. Weve been struggling the past week. Today was better. Crawford connected in the second inning, driving a 2-0 pitch from Nathan Eovaldi over the
wall in right. Crawford also reached on an ineld single in the fth and scored on Angel Pagans second double in as many days. For me, its not about results right now, said Pagan, who is hitting .189 in 59 spring at-bats. Its about how you feel. Im feeling better at the right time. I just want to feel comfortable. You want to feel like your hands are going through the point where you want them to go. After studying video, I made some adjustments. My hands werent going in the direction they have to. But now they are. Thats the important thing. Im seeing the ball better. Eovaldi gave up two runs and three hits in ve
innings. He struck out none and walked two. James Loney hit an RBI double in the sixth for Los Angeles. Schierholtz belted a two-run shot to left in the eighth. Yusmeiro Petit allowed four hits in ve scoreless innings for San Francisco. The right-hander struck out four and walked one. Petit pitched in Mexico and Venezuela last year before agreeing to a minor league deal in November. Petit, who has pitched for the Florida Marlins and Arizona Diamondbacks, has worked eight scoreless innings in two appearances this spring.
He was limited by shoulder problems when he was with the Marlins. Im ne now, he said. Ive been working hard, very hard, for this opportunity. I got this chance because what I had been doing over on the minor league side. Today, I felt very good with a fastball, changeup, curve and some sliders. Petit got into trouble when Loney hit a two-out triple to deep center in the rst. But he bounced back by striking out Josh Fields to end the inning. Hes got experience, Bochy said. What I like is that he does the little things so well.

Still, the Dons built a reputation around Killigrew and the teams three other captains (Kimi Petsche, Marissa Bonglio and Jenny Winterbottom) for being a physical, no nonsense, smart and hungry bunch. We want the Ws, we want the wins, and well go hard for them, Killigrew said. Each person on the team added their own quality which we needed. Even as the No. 6 seed in CCS Division II, Aragon went into the postseason condent they had the tools to make a serious run. As one by one PAL teams fell in competition, the Dons found their groove behind Killigrew. And their quality of play landed them in the title game against a team in Mitty that was supposed to walk away with their 11th outright title. As the captain, in my head, I was like, We made it this far and there is a reason why were here. Mitty might have all these rankings, all these girls and an outstanding record, but its not always based on statistics. You have to come out the day of. Its who comes out the hardest, Killigrew said. And to be honest, we really wanted it. We knew what we were up against, but we knew we could take it. We knew it was Mitty. But we knew we were Aragon. And so, with the game notched at zero and with the Dons in need of someone to make that sentiment stick, it was Killigrew who stepped up and pushed her team forward against the giants as if there was no doubt in her mind that Aragon belonged on that pitch with the nations best. So perhaps, soccer quality aside, its was No. 19s ability to reward her teams faith, all their hard work, their blood, sweat and tears, with a single shot, that drives home the fact that this season there was no one better than Killigrew.

on her shoulders, Killigrew stepped up, just like she had all season long. And in 2011-2012, no one stepped up for her team any better than Killigrew. I denitely think it was a game-changer, Killigrew said of her 19-yard marvel that gave the Dons a 1-0 lead against the No. 5 ranked team in the nation. In my head, I knew why I was taking that shot. It was earned. Im going to do my best to make it. I was relaxed, took a deep breath and just shot it. Killigrews boot gave the Dons the lead and more importantly, the condence to stand up to a national powerhouse. Even with the wave after wave of Monarch assaults that followed in the second half of that championship game, the Dons appeared unfazed. And at the center of that stance was Killigrew. If it felt like her Aragon teammates fed off her calm and focused demeanor on the eld, its because thats what theyd done all year. And this season, no team embodied the personality of their captain quite like the Aragon girls soccer team when you have a player the caliber of Killigrew wearing the armband, that can be a very good thing. The year began with lofty expectations for the Dons. As the reigning PAL Bay Division champions and the core of the defense returning for another go-around, Aragon got off to a fast start and went into league play the oddson favorite to repeat. But the regular season wasnt without its hiccups and with the target painted solidly on their backs, the Dons took the PALs best shot game after game to the point where Carlmont unseated Aragon as PAL Bay champions.

Baseball, softball consider joint 2020 Olympic bid
ROME Baseball and softball ofcials aim to join forces for a bid for the 2020 Olympics. The International Baseball Federation and the International Softball Federation are putting the nal touches on a joint bid for Olympic reinstatement. IBAF president Riccardo Fraccari said Wednesday the two federations need to form a new, combined body. Were working out the nal details, IBAF president Riccardo Fraccari said. The presidency will rotate year to year. He plans to draw up the nal details with ISF president Don Porter at a meeting of national
Olympic committees in Moscow on April 11. Theyll make a presentation to the IOC on April 19 in Lausanne, Switzerland. However, Fraccari has still not secured a guarantee that major league stars would be freed up to play in the Olympics. Another option Fraccari oated was suspending the All-Star Game every four years and having a break later in the season for the Olympics instead. The IOC will vote on one new sport for the 2020 Olympic program in September 2013. Baseball and softball are competing with karate, roller sports, sports climbing, squash, wakeboard and wushu. The IOC voted in 2005 to remove baseball and softball after the 2008 Beijing Games. As separate bids, the two sports failed to return for the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Games. to earn a scholarship to Santa Clara University in the mid 2000s, while Ashley Chinn parlayed her success with the Scots into a scholarship at Stanford. Kelly Comstock, Keli Leong, Kelly Cunningham, Megan Hansen the list goes on and on of the talent that has come through the Carlmont program. But while the players names and faces change, there has been one constant for the past 36 years Liggett, as well as his assistant coaches. While Liggett has added and subtracted from his coaching staff over the years, there are two constants Walt McElroy and Ron Perris, who both joined Liggett in 1989. And dont go expecting Liggett to be leaving any time soon. (I plan to stay) until theres not a re there any more. As long as Im having fun and enjoying it, Ill be out there, Liggett said in that interview six years ago. A quote that is still applicable today.

California high school sports. I dont think anyone has 800 (wins). Since picking up win No. 772 in 2006, the Scots have averaged 21 wins a year since, giving him 125 more victories. For his career, Carlmont is averaging just under 25 wins per season. Included in those wins 24 Peninsula Athletic League titles and seven Central Coast Section championships. The Scots have never suffering a losing record or missed the playoffs during Liggetts tenure. But Liggett is right. The sheer volume of wins doesnt happen without the horses to do it and Liggett and Carlmont have been blessed with some amazing talent since he took over the program in 1976. Mary Crusick was the rst star to cross paths with Liggett, earning all-league and all-county honors. Deanna Earsley was four-time team MVP from 1986 to 1989, while former Stanford star Tori Nyberg got her start with Liggett at Carlmont, earning three straight team MVPs from 1997 to 1999.

natural position of second base might have enabled Shannon to feel more comfortable at the plate. In addition to Shannons bomb, Mike Camel also hit a solo jack to nearly the same spot in left eld in the fourth inning. That helped set up two more runs in the inning Devin Gilmore ended up scoring on a wild pitch and Conner Wallace came around to score on Taran Poss double to the right-center eld gap.
Carlmont made a little noise in its nal two at-bats. The Scots scratched out a run in the top of the six when Kai Haake, who had a oneout double, came around to score on a Ryan Anthony elders choice. In the seventh, Jacob Cox singled and went to third on a throwing error. Kyle Barret drove Cox home with a sacrice y to right. Marley reached on an error and Nick Rich doubled to put runners on second and third with one out. But Foiles got a groundout and a yout to end the game. I expected them to struggle early in the year.

AP source: Brandon Jacobs agrees with 49ers

By Janie McCauley
SAN FRANCISCO The San Francisco 49ers added another member of last seasons Super Bowlchampion New York Giants on Wednesday, agreeing to terms with veteran running back Brandon Jacobs on a one-year contract. ESPN rst reported Jacobs would

join the NFC West champion 49ers. A person with knowledge of the negotiations conrmed the deal Wednesday, speaking on condition of anonymity because the team had yet to make a formal announcement. Jacobs was released March 9 by the Giants after he failed to reach agreement on a restructured deal. He is expected to play behind Frank Gore and could share the back-
up role with second-year pro Kendall Hunter. Jacobs spent seven seasons with New York, winning two Super Bowls and beating the 49ers 20-17 in overtime of the NFC championship game at Candlestick Park on Jan. 22. The 29-year-old Jacobs ran for 571 yards and seven touchdowns last season as a backup to Ahmad Bradshaw. He is the fourth-leading rusher in
franchise history with 4,849 yards, but saw his role diminish with the emergence of Bradshaw. A fourth-round draft pick in 2005, Jacobs rushed for 56 touchdowns. He had 1,000-yard seasons in 2007 and 2008, but his carries and yardage dipped the past two seasons. He gained 823 yards in 2010, and had just 152 carries and a 3.8-yard average last season.
Jacobs had expressed hopes after the 21-17 Super Bowl win over New England that he would be able to work out a deal and stay with the Giants. Its been a great ride, Jacobs said. Jacobs was drafted out of Southern Illinois. He began his college career at Coffeyville Community College and transferred to Auburn before nally settling in with the Salukis.

Remember the ceiling when decorating

By Sarah Wolfe
Ceilings are the Rodney Dangerfield of homes. They get no respect. But there are plenty of easy ways to make over this oft-overlooked area, from the quirky charm of Victorian-era, pressed-tin tiles and beadboard to a simple splash of color. Historically, ceilings were highly decorated, but it seems as houses have become more modern they have been forgotten, says San Francisco-based interior designer Cecilie Starlin. Once again, though, ceilings are starting to get the attention they deserve. Here are some suggestions from the simple to the complex to transform your ceilings from drab white squares into the focal point of a room.
wallet than those from decades past, says Alex Bandon, online editor of Thisoldhouse.com. I personally like that look in the bedroom, she says. Its a really unusual thing, but it makes a simple bedroom much more romantic and exciting.
PAINT
If you have tall ceilings or want a cozy feel, extend the wall color onto the ceiling, or go bold and throw a darker or contrasting color up above to make the area appear smaller. Color on the ceiling is not forbidden, Bandon says. Its something you can play around with a bit. Go with a flat paint on ceilings to minimize light reflection and mask imperfections, says Puji Sherer of the eco-paint manufacturer YOLO Colorhouse in Portland, Ore. Since ceilings are not in danger of greasy fingerprints and the regular wear and tear that walls receive, higher gloss finishes are not necessary, she says.
Equity, prefers the ease of gluing and nailing larger beadboard sheet panels to the ceiling rather than tacking up individual tongue-andgroove pieces. The panels, which can be cut with a power or handsaw, should be nailed to ceiling joists, and can then be stained or painted. Bandon likes the look in bathrooms, where wainscoted walls are common, or on front-porch ceilings, in a traditional light-blue color that was thought to keep insects away.
PRESSED-TIN PANELS
These are a popular ceiling option if youre looking for a folksy, vintage feel, and they also come in larger patterned-metal sheets for easier installation, Bandon says. The panels can be nailed in place with a hammer or nail gun onto furring strips that must first be nailed up, according to thisoldhouse.com. Overlap the edges and seal the panels with a clear polyurethane or paint them with an oil-based paint.
CEILING MEDALLION
Probably the easiest way to bring the eye upward in a room is with a ceiling medallion, a white or colored decorative disk typically mounted around a lighting fixture. The pieces come in a variety of styles and can be found in any home improvement store. Another bonus? Todays lighter polyurethane models are much simpler to install and easier on the

Seeds are an economical way to grow in bulk, even if you must buy them in commercially prepared packets. Getting your seeds from a proven source is a good way to ensure high production, Druse said. Here is a propagation glossary, describing the most commonly used methods: Sowing seeds: Druse starts his seeds indoors three at a time in half-inch pots, topping the soil with fine sand. Moist soil is a great medium for seeds but also for fungus, which can kill a great many sprouts in just a couple of weeks, he said. Gravel is not a hospitable medium for fungus. Stem, leaf or root cuttings: Pieces of the parent plant are cut and placed in water or a suitable growing medium until roots develop. They become clones, or junior versions of the originals and soon are ready for transplanting. It wouldnt be the rst time, Daicuk retorted. Most of his customers come from the neighborhood, he said, but through the years Thompson cut the hair of some of the areas greatest sports celebrities but not Joe Montana. Montana came in and asked to use the pay phone, Thompson said. The pay phone is gone now but Thompson did get Montana to sign a 49ers pennant. Jack Clark, the former Giants power hitter, was also a customer and Jeffrey Leonard, too. His most famous customer was probably little Tommy Brady, he said. Bradys mother brought her son in for cuts at the barber shop for a few years in the mid-1980s when Brady was still in elementary school, he said. Thompson never imagined the boy would Layering: A practice usually done with woody plants where living stems are placed on the ground with their tips forced downward. They receive nourishment from the parent plants while roots form on the planted ends, enabling them to eventually be separated and grow unaided. Grafting: Branches are removed from one woody plant and secured to another until they take or begin to grow. That unites certain desirable characteristics from one plant say hardiness, dwarfing or faster fruiting with those of its host. Apple trees commonly are grafted, as are Japanese maples. Dividing: Perennials should be divided once they outgrow their sites. That improves their health, bulks up foliage and produces more flowers. Depending upon the species, these divisions may grow to be as large as the original plant by seasons end: more end up being a three-time Super Bowl winning quarterback with the New England Patriots. He never thought Brady would be famous for his hair either. He suspects Brady goes to a salon now rather than a barber. Salons are not much different than a barber shop since the licenses are essentially the same. Im licensed to cut anything thats got hair on it, man, Thompson said. How good? Thats another story. Bobs clients are men and their sons, he said, and hes watched many of those sons grow up and bring in their own sons for a cut. He doesnt know the exact number of haircuts hes performed but suspects it is in the range of 100,000. A cut costs $20 and a beard trim costs $13.

Propagation a cheap way to build plant collection

By Dean Fosdick
A creative sideline for gardeners is plant propagation, or enhancing the landscape through reproduction. Its also a cheap way to fill flowerbeds and herbal containers while prices continue to climb. Methods of propagation range from seed sowing to grafting, and all require varying degrees of skill. For propagation, you dont need an education but you may need some guidance, said Ken Druse, author of the new Making More Plants: The Science, Art and Joy of Propagation (Stewart, Tabori and Chang). Most often, though, its all about starting plants from seeds.
plants for free, Druse said. Sowing seeds, cuttings and division are the most prevalent forms of propagation done by home gardeners, said Rosie Lerner, an extension consumer horticulturist with Purdue University. Its a little work but well worth the effort. Its a matter of knowing which parts of the plants to split off and divide. Many have a high degree of success. And then there are plant swaps, which add a social component to garden building. Be careful of those pass-along plants from neighbors and friends, though the kind theyre willing to trade because they have so many. Some could be infested with mites, while others may be invasive. Some plants are thugs, Druse said. Anything so easy to propagate may not be that great to have around your yard. It is a deal, he said, compared to others. Just down the street on 25th Avenue a new shop has opened called Mazzys Brow Bar. It specializes in eyebrow and facial hair trimming for women. Thompson had never heard of a brow bar until Mazzys opened. It charges $13 for an eyebrow trim and $34 for a full facial treatment. Bobs Barber Shop was Daves Barber Shop until Thompson bought it. The spot at 114 W. 25th Ave. has been a barber shop for almost 70 years, he said. Thompson will celebrate 40 years as a business owner on the street Tuesday.

considers himself retired. Im just having a good time. The good times happen when Thompson gets one of his regulars in a chair for a cut. Some of his customers have been with him since day one. Miguel Daciuk, the matre d at Lucetis across the street, has been getting his hair cut at Bobs for 35 years. As soon as Daciuk sat in a chair, the barber shop banter began. Hes one of the worst barbers in town, Daicuk said with a smile. Im going to cut you, Thompson replied.

common in 1960s basements and ofce buildings. But Matthews says todays drop ceilings are handsomer, designed in many more colors and textures. Several companies even make individual panels in materials such as wood and tin that t into existing metal grid systems, giving homeowners a cheaper way to bring their drop ceiling into the 21st century, Matthews says.

more complex ceiling projects, but also the most formal and dramatic. The process involves attaching at or more intricately molded beams to the ceiling to create a square, grid-like pattern that is then typically trimmed out with crown molding, Bandon says. It drops your ceilings down, so use caution in a small room, but it adds instant classic elegance to a dining or living room. Its a great way to hide aws in your ceiling, Bandon says. Its also a great way to hide duct work or something you have to put in your ceiling. Building a soft box around the perimeter of a ceiling also can give the look of a layered, coffer-like ceiling, says Ken Collier, editor-inchief of The Family Handyman magazine. Install recessed lighting in the soft box or run downlights along the top to make the light kind of wash along the walls.

Pope urges greater openings in vast Cuban Mass
HAVANA Pope Benedict XVI demanded more freedom for the Catholic Church in communist-run Cuba and preached against fanaticism in an unusually political sermon Wednesday before hundreds of thousands at Revolution Plaza, with President Raul Castro in the front row. Before the popes departure, he met with the presidents brother, revolutionary leader Fidel Castro. Castro grilled the pontiff on changes in church liturgy and his role as spiritual leader of the worlds Catholics, a Vatican spokesman said. Benedicts homily Pope was a not-so-subtle jab at the islands leadership before a vast crowd of Cubans, both Benedict XVI in the sprawling plaza and watching on television. But he also clearly urged an end to Cubas isolation, a reference to the 50year U.S. economic embargo and the inability of 11 American presidents and brothers Fidel and Raul Castro to forge peace. Cuba and the world need change, but this will occur only if each one is in a position to seek the truth and chooses the way of love, sowing reconciliation and fraternity, Benedict said.
Small may be in when it comes to homes, but that doesnt mean its easy to decorate. A few simple guidelines, however, can turn a small space from Dilemma to DeLovely. Maxwell Gillingham-Ryan, founder of the decor blog Apartment Therapy and author of The Big Book of Small, Cool Spaces (Clarkson Potter, 2010), thinks its all about light. The single most powerful inuencer in a room is the lighting, he says. Every room should have three sources of illumination, which will bounce off walls and create a visual expanse, Gillingham-Ryan says. Track lighting is a good alternative to free-standing xtures if space is a problem. Track has really improved in the past few years. You dont have to buy a big section with large lights; there are many smaller, attractive options, he says. Rather than buy adjustable furniture for a multi-purpose small space, its better to nd good pieces that do what theyre supposed to, he says. For example, instead of an ottoman with a lid that ips into a tray, buy a great ottoman and a great tray. Youll appreciate both pieces so much more. Gillingham-Ryan suggests limiting the color palette of a small room. He likes off-white in all its iterations, with bright white on ceilings. Keep oors dark theyre calming and grounding, and will make the walls seem higher, he says. Use accessories, such as a great rug, to add color. You cant change your square footage, but you can change the way the space feels, he says. Elaine Griffin, a New York-based designer and author of Design Rules (Gotham, 2009), says a welcoming foyer is near the top of her list for small spaces. Its an important part of the psychological experience of coming home. I like to create a faux foyer by sitting a decorative cube or box adjacent to the door with a tray for mail, and perhaps a shelf above for keys, a ower and a fragrant candle. Mount a mirror above the shelf, she says. In the living area, avoid the tempta-
Arab summit appears divided over approach to Syria

BAGHDAD Arab leaders gathering here Thursday will call for Syria to implement a cease-re, but theres little faith that President Bashar Assad will do anything to halt his crackdown on the year-old uprising. That could set the stage for Gulf Arab nations, eager to see Assads downfall, to take stronger action on their own. Arab governments are divided over how strongly to intervene to stop the bloodshed in Syria, and their divisions illustrate how the conict has become a proxy in the regions wider rivalry the one between Arabs and powerhouse Iran. Sunni-led nations of the Gulf such as Saudi Arabia and Qatar hoping to break Syria out of its alliance with Shiite Iran are believed to be considering arming the Syrian rebels to ght back against Assads forces. But other Arab nations are reluctant to openly call for that step yet.

Truthfully, they only sit one. Go for the better-proportioned 72-to-76inch apartment-sized sofa. In tiny bathrooms, Grifn says, Im a big fan of wall-mountable, square minishelves, which I station in multiples behind the door. Save the most visible space above the toilet for art. Janice Simonson, IKEAs design spokesperson, seconds that approach. Often people only look at the footprint of the room, she says. Look for space on the verticals railings, hooks and shelves on doors and walls can hold baskets and clothing, and serve as drying areas for laundry. She thinks many people err by buying too much storage, ending up with more stuff that takes space. Take the time to plan; dont buy anything till youve moved in and unpacked, to see whats needed, she says. Some other general tips: Downsize. What do you need and what can you live without? Rip all your CDs to a hard drive, then sell or donate them. Get rid of anything you rarely use. Sight lines are important. Benches, open shelves, furniture with legs, light materials these help the eye perceive a room as more spacious. Mobilize. Rolling tables and carts can serve as dining, work or play pieces.

exceeds what we looked at earlier because it is more affordable and will have less physical impact on the city with much smaller buildings. I continue to believe that this is an important piece of Foster City. Community Partners will sell townhomes in the $400,000 to $750,000 range. The project includes the construction of 200 for-sale units, 138 assisted and independent living units and 66 senior affordable apartments. It will also feature a town square. The for-sale units will be available for those 55 and older and the other units will be set aside for those 62 and older. The city entered an exclusive rights to negotiate agreement with the developer Feb. 6. The term lasts until August 2013, according to Assistant City Manager Steve Toler. It may be extended upon the citys discretion as long as substantive progress is made toward a nal agreement, Toler said. Councilman Herb Perez calls the businessterm sheet the council is set to approve appropriate. He cautions, however, that 30,000 square feet of retail proposed for the site will not necessarily give Foster City the presence of a downtown. For retail to be successful on the 15-acre site, he said, it must be looked at in concert with the citys other retail centers. We have retail centers that are four times that size that struggle currently, Perez said.

The council meets 6:30 p.m., Monday, April 2, City Hall, 620 Foster City Blvd., Foster City. benet cuts across all employee groups and, in a preliminary budget hearing this week, Maltbie presented a strategy calling for $7 million in negotiated labor savings for each of those years. Coupled with new revenue, service changes and reorganized governance, Maltbie estimates moving from a $28 million decit now to a $6 million to $14 million surplus by the end of the ve-year effort. According to Maltbies message, he devised the new cost-sharing plan after looking at a July 2009 survey of all managers and attorneys which asked what strategies they preferred to keep salary and benet costs in check. Maltbie said he also evaluated potential strategies based on preference, the impact on recruitment and those nearing retirement and the possibility of positive public perception. Reducing the retirement pickup was a strategy that met the criteria and is consistent with comparable agencies, Maltbie wrote. The same survey of managers and attorneys was used in March 2010 when then-county manager David Boesch cited it when the county dropped its 100 percent retirement coverage to 75 percent. That drop was estimated at an average of 1.75 percent of pre-tax gross pay for most employees. The upcoming reduction was not subject to negotiation because the affected employees are not represented by a union. opposing the demolition attended board meetings to question how plans t with the proposed voter-approved work and the long-term master plans. The district passed two addendums to the plan before approving the demolition. The rst was redone after community concerns were raised. What resulted was a 140-page document amending the original large-scale design-build plans approved by district ofcials. Christensen noted the original plans called for the demolition of 13 buildings on campus. Bond plans have been uid as the process went on. For example, Christensen noted that if Building 20 were to be demolished, the work would have resulted in the demolition of 11 buildings. CSM President Michael Claire previously explained bond project plans are fluid. Looking again at the plans, it didnt make as much sense to refurbish a building that would not be widely used. Also, parking on the north side of the campus is sparse. The horticulture program had been on hiatus for two years, due to budget cuts, before it was canceled due to low enrollment last year.

the purchase price of the property. Approval of the business-term sheet, however, is not an approval of the project itself as it has yet to be designed. It will have a lengthy planning process before ground is broken on the project. A preliminary schedule assumes that the sale of the property will be nalized in late 2013, with site development occurring in 2014 and the rst construction to be completed between 2015 and 2017, according to a staff report. The city has had other developers in the past committed to building senior housing on the site but financing for those projects fell through. Over the years, advocates for building a school on the site repeatedly said the land was set aside for that purpose. However, the council has leaned toward generating revenue off the site, which a school will not provide the city. The city will reap $30 million by selling the site but property and sales tax revenue generated from the project once it is completed will add signicant revenue annually to the citys general fund, which pays for police, re and other critical city services. The citys residents are also aging and more senior housing is needed in the city to accommodate that group. I am very excited that this project is moving forward, said Councilman Charles Bronitsky. Building a senior-living facility was one of my goals when I ran for City Council in 2009. In many ways, this project
