With nearly all ballots counted, county vot-
ers are still favoring a rental car tax that will
pour an estimated $8 million annually into the
general fund and, according to proponents,
stave off further cuts to health and public safe-
ty.
Measure T, which will impose a 2.5 percent
tax on businesses in the unincorporated areas,
gained ground with the election results update

WASHINGTON The Great
Recession shrank Americans
wealth so much that in 2010 median
family net worth was no more than
it had been in 1992 after adjusting
for ination, the Federal Reserve
reported Monday.
Median net worth declined from
$126,400 in 2007 to $77,300 in
2010, a Fed survey of family
nances found. The median marks
the point where half had more and
half had less. The recession ofcial-
ly began in December 2007 and
ended in June 2009.
Net worth is the value of assets
like homes, bank accounts and
stocks, minus debts like mortgages
and credit cards
The Feds ndings are in its latest
Survey of Consumer Finances, a
comprehensive review of household
nances that the Fed has done every
three years dating to 1989.
The Feds survey of consumer
nances contains information only
through 2010. A separate survey the
Fed released last week showed that
total family net worth climbed 4.7
percent in the January-March quar-
ter to $62.9 trillion, about 28 percent
above its recession low. The
increase was fueled by stock market
gains.
Those gains put net worth about 5
percent below its pre-recession peak
of $66 trillion. But since the rst

Citing recent news coverage which could be
perceived as painting Peninsula High School
in a negative light, San Bruno Police Chief
Neil Telford emphasized his experience with
the school has been positive in a letter he
wrote to Scott Laurence, superintendent for
the San Mateo Union High School District.
The district has started looking for a new
home for Peninsula High School a contin-
uation school for students at risk of not grad-
uating which is currently housed at aging
facilities on the campus of the former
Crestmoor High School in San Bruno.
Options include renovating the current site,
buying land and building a new facility or
building on excess land at either San Mateo or
Hillsdale high schools. Moving to school sites
has raised concerns by a number of communi-
ty members. In May, San Mateo Police Chief
Susan Manheimer spelled out her depart-
ments concerns related to relocating
Peninsula onto San Mateo High which she
said would likely create violent conicts and
hostility, according to a report by the San
Mateo Police Department.
Coverage of that San Mateo City Council
meeting, Telford said, showcased Peninsula in
a negative light that he believed to be unfair.
As a result, Telford penned a letter dated May
28 to Superintendent Scott Laurence.
Telfords intent, he said, was not to second
guess the concern of the San Mateo Police
Department. Only they can speak to concerns
in their city, he said. He simply wanted to
share the positive experience San Bruno has
had with Peninsula within its city limits.
The San Bruno Police Department has
always enjoyed a positive and proactive work-
ing relationship with the administration and

School union wins
right to eat expired food
SHARPSVILLE, Pa. Unionized
cafeteria workers in one western
Pennsylvania school district have won the
right to eat expired food for free at
their own risk.
The Herald of Sharon, Pa., reports
Monday that the American Federation of
State, County and Municipal Employees
led a grievance against the Sharpsville
Area School District last year after school
ofcials violated established past prac-
tice by no longer allowing workers to eat
the expired food for free.
The newspaper got a copy of a settle-
ment approved by the school board last
month.
Under the agreement, food items that
are past their expiration date or reheated
in a way that they can no longer be served
to students may still be eaten for free by
the cafeteria workers.
Workers must pay for unexpired food
they eat.

While in eighth grade, Esther Macias took
part in a program for girls that introduced her
to the world of engineering.
She truly enjoyed making something with
her hands.
Learning that she could create something
that made a difference was inspirational for
the 18-year-old who graduates from Summit
Preparatory High School Friday. She plans to
study mechanical engineering at the
University of California at Davis this fall.
Esther is a soft-spoken, but compassionate
and responsible leader who does not get the
recognition many of our more outgoing stu-
dents receive, said Julian Cortella, her men-
tor and advanced placement calculus teacher.
She is a dedicated community leader in her
church and is tirelessly dedicated to becoming
an engineer in a eld that is dominated by
people not anything like her.
Macias will be the rst in her family to
attend college. Her family immigrated to the
United States in hopes of better opportunities.
Macias, the oldest of three children, noted the
family has been impacted by her brothers
leukemia diagnosis. Its helped her solidify a
desire to help others.
The family moved around a lot when Macias
was little. She heard about Summit from a
member of her church, where she has been
very involved. She decided to enroll and has
used her time outside of school volunteering.
I like experiencing new things through vol-
unteering, she said.
Macias has taken the opportunity to explore
a variety of interests by volunteering. Her
freshman year, she worked with the Palo Alto
Humane Society. Since her sophomore year,
Macias has become an active volunteer at the
Riekes Center, where she assists in the pho-
tography studio. Last year, she added volun-
teering at the Redwood City library, where she
has worked with Project Read, to her sched-
ule.
With these experiences, Macias decided to
study mechanical engineering at UC Davis in
the fall. She isnt quite sure what to do with
the degree but has hopes to create something
that helps others. Macias was lucky. Shes
worked hard to get funding for the rst year of
school. Shes saving up to cover costs for the
rest of her education.
Summits graduation will be held 6 p.m.
Friday, June 15 at the Sequoia High School
theater, 1201 Brewster Ave., Redwood City.
Tickets are required.
Great Grads is in its seventh year proling one
graduating senior from each of our local

pate. Those that choose to participate are
asked to nominate one student who deserves
recognition.

Millbrae looking to

Two openings on the Millbrae Elementary

middle of serving her fth term on the board. A
second opening was created by the relocation
of Trustee Marjory Luxenberg. The terms of
both women are set to expire in 2013.
The board recently decided on appointments
to ll the vacancies through December 2013.
Those appointed will be able to run for ofce in
November 2013 to serve a full four-year term,

ing.
Belmont considers joining
county polystyrene ban
The city of Belmont is looking to get a lit-
tle greener by banning the use of polystyrene
at local restaurants.
A ban on polystyrene-based disposable food
boxes will decrease litter and cleanup costs and
protect marine life, according to a staff report.
At a previous meeting, the City Council indi-
cated its interest in outlawing polystyrene con-
tainers and asked staff to come back with a
draft ordinance. Tonight, it will consider join-
ing a county ordinance that went into effect
July 1, 2011. Should the council like the idea, it
would need to discuss a start date since the
ordinance would come back for a second read-
ing July 10.
The draft is based on a ban in San Jose that
exempts restaurants because they are covered
under the disposable foodware ordinance and
allows stores to sell bags to customers.
The countys regulations prohibit all food
vendors from dispensing prepared food in
polystyrene containers but not in pre-pack-
aged food. The ban does not apply to non-
food businesses that use polystyrene for pack-
aging. Fines are only issued in cases when
other efforts are not successful.
Administration and enforcement of the rules
would be handled by the county, according to
a staff report.
The council meets 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, June
12 at City Hall, 1 Twin Pines Lane, Belmont.
Brisbane blaze controlled
A vegetation re that burned for several

Monday afternoon, North County Fire
Authority ofcials said.
No homes were threatened by the blaze,
which was reported at 11:09 a.m. near the 100

Matt Lucett said.
The re worked its way up a hillside,
prompting a two-alarm response that included
a helicopter and two Cal Fire hand crews
one of which was nearby when the re start-
ed, he said.
We were fortunate to have a Cal Fire hand
crew in the city of Brisbane at the time work-
ing on some vegetation management, Lucett
said.
Fire crews gained full containment of the
blaze within about three hours and re of-
cials said it burned about three acres.
No injuries were reported and no structures
were damaged. The cause of the re is under
investigation.

Escape from Alcatraz gets anniversary attention
ALCATRAZ ISLAND For 20th century crime buffs, few
capers match the intrigue and ingenuity of the Escape from
Alcatraz, the 1962 prison break three inmates pulled off with
stolen spoons, dummy heads and a raincoat raft.
For Marie Widner and Mearl Taylor, the fabled ight from
the Rock is all about family.
The two Florida women are the younger sisters of John and
Clarence Anglin, who along with fellow prisoner Frank
Morris, disappeared from the federal prison on Alcatraz Island
50 years ago. Whether the three men perished in chilly San
Francisco Bay, as prison ofcials and federal agents insisted at
the time, remains a subject of hot speculation because their
bodies were never found.
Out of the 36 Alcatraz inmates who tried to ee before the
prison was closed in March 1963, the three are the only ones
who remain unaccounted for, according to the U.S. Marshals
Service, which maintains active arrest warrants on Morris and
the Anglins.

BOSTON Keeping his secrets,
Mitt Romney tends to lift the veil on
his nances and campaign only if
the law says he must.
The Republican presidential can-
didate refuses to identify his biggest
donors who bundle money for his
campaign. He often declines to say
whos meeting with him or what
hes doing for hours at a time. He
puts limits on media access to his
fundraisers. And he resists releasing
all of his tax returns, making just a
single year public after facing pres-
sure to do so.
Weve released all the informa-
tion required by law and then
some, Romney said last month
about his tax returns.
Hes indicated that part of the rea-
son for his secrecy is to avoid polit-
ical problems in his race against
President Barack Obama.
He has said of his election foe:
Hes going to try and make this
campaign about the fact that Ive
been successful, that Ive made a lot
of money. So he wants to be able to
get all the details on each year and
how much money I made this year
and that year. Im not going to get
into that.
Not that Obama has been totally
open, either.
For example, the Democrat also
limits media access to some parts of
his fundraisers, though he allows
cameras into larger events and will
bring a small contingent of reporters
into private residences. Reporters
are promptly ushered out ahead of
question-and-answer sessions with
donors. Some fundraisers are closed
entirely because the campaign says
Obama is not making any formal
remarks.
But Romney, whose views have
been shaped both by his years in
politics and his nearly three decades
in private business, has made a
keep-it-under-wraps approach a
hallmark of his campaign. Hes
often broken precedent set by presi-
dential candidates of both parties.
He is reluctant to disclose infor-
mation that is standard for disclo-
sure and has become the norm, said
Angela Canterbury, policy director
for the Project on Government
Oversight. And she and others say
theres no reason to think that style
would change if Romney becomes
president.
Theres a short-term political ben-
et, to be sure, in keeping a lid on
everything from campaign appear-
ances to the names of big donors. It
means Romney can more easily
control his campaign message,
rather than getting knocked off
course by Democratic hecklers at
events or by unattering media sto-
ries. And it can prevent providing
fodder for political rivals to use
against him.
But there also are risks, not the
least of which is that Romney could
appear to be hiding something, fur-
ther irking voters already suspicious
of politicians.

Food labeling,three-strikes
joining November ballot
SACRAMENTO Californias secretary of state has certi-
ed two more initiatives for the November election, when vot-
ers will have to decide at least eight ballot measures.
Debra Bowens ofce said Monday that a proposal to require
mandatory labeling on foods that contain genetically modied
ingredients has collected enough signatures to qualify, along
with a proposal to modify Californias strict three-strikes sen-
tencing law.
That initiative would make a life sentence on a third strike
possible only when the new conviction is serious or violent.
Six other initiatives have already been approved for
November. They include measures related to auto insurance,
political contributions, a $12 billion water bond, the death
penalty, penalties for human trafcking and repealing the new
state Senate maps drawn by an independent citizens panel.
House panel schedules
June 20 contempt vote on AG
WASHINGTON A House committee looking into a
awed gun-smuggling probe in Arizona announced Monday
that it will consider holding Attorney General Eric Holder in
contempt of Congress next week for failing
to produce some documents the panel is
seeking.
The committee has scheduled a contempt
vote for June 20.
To date, the Justice Department has pro-
duced 7,600 pages of material to the com-
mittee.
Darrell Issa, chairman of the House
Oversight and Government Reform
Committee, says Congress needs to exam-
ine records regarding the Justice Departments conduct follow-
ing public disclosures in early 2011 that hundreds of guns illic-
itly purchased at gun shops on the U.S. side of the border
wound up in Mexico, many of them at crime scenes.
The Justice Department says many of the documents being
sought deal with open criminal investigations and prosecutions
matters relating to sensitive law enforcement activities that
cannot be disclosed.
Sheriff: Man writing book
on kindness shot in Montana
BILLINGS, Mont. A West Virginia man who told author-
ities he was hitchhiking across the country and writing a mem-
oir about kindness was injured in a seemingly random drive-by
shooting near Montanas booming Bakken oil patch.
Ray Dolin, 39, was shot in the arm as he approached a pick-
up Saturday evening, thinking the driver was offering him a
ride, said Valley County Sheriff Glen Meier.
The freelance photographer, who runs a business called
OneShot Impressions, was injured about three miles west of
the town of Glasgow, along rural U.S. Highway 2, a major
route into and out of the oil patch.
A 52-year-old man from Washington state, Lloyd
Christopher Danielson III, was arrested about four hours later
near Culbertson. Authorities said Danielson was under the
inuence of drugs or alcohol. They released no motive in the
shooting.

NATO limits airstrikes
on Afghan homes
KABUL, Afghanistan The
U.S.-led military coalition in
Afghanistan is limiting airstrikes
against houses to self-defense for
troops, following a strike last week
that killed women and children
alongside insurgents, a spokesman
for the alliance said Monday.
Such airstrikes are now being des-
ignated a weapon of last resort to res-
cue soldiers, cutting back their use.
Though airstrikes on homes are a
small part of the international opera-
tions in Afghanistan, they have
brewed resentment among Afghans,
even when there are no casualties,
because of the sense that homes and
privacy have been violated.
Around the world
By Hamza Hendawi
CAIRO Hosni Mubaraks
health worsened Monday, with doc-
tors twice having to use a debrilla-
tor on the imprisoned former leader,
adding to the tumult in Egypt before
this weekends runoff election for
president.
Mubarak, 84, was slipping in and
out of consciousness, was suffering
from high blood pressure and
breathing difculties, and was in a
deep depression, according to secu-
rity ofcials at Torah prison where
he is serving a life sentence.
Doctors there could not nd a pulse
twice, and used the debrillator,
they said.
The deposed leader, who was
being given liquids intravenously,
also lost consciousness several
times Sunday.
His health crisis came at time of
political anxiety in Egypt, with a
former prime minister from the
Mubarak regime facing an Islamist
in a showdown
at the ballot box
on June 16-17.
He is causing
everyone a
headache, said
Ahmed Badawi,
a liberal activist
who participated
in last years
Arab Spring
uprising that ousted Mubarak.
There are daily rumors that he died
and where he is held is also a thorny
issue. He is denitely feeding the
nervousness we are all living in
these days.
Egypt is in the home stretch of a
16-month transitional period over-
seen by the military council that
succeeded him a time that has
seen the rising power of the
Islamists, deadly street protests and
gross human rights abuses blamed
on the generals, including the tor-
ture of detainees and trials for civil-
ians in front of military tribunals.
The generals have promised to
hand over power to a civilian
administration by July 1, about 10
days after the winner of the runoff is
announced. The election pits
Ahmed Shafiq, Mubaraks last
prime minister, against Mohammed
Morsi of the Muslim Brotherhood.
But that all could be thrown into
chaos Thursday if Egypts highest
court the Supreme Constitutional
Court rules that legislation ban-
ning Mubarak regime gures from
running for ofce is constitutional.
Shaq would be booted out of the
race, the runoff would be canceled
and the rst round of voting would
be repeated.
The court could also uphold a
lower court ruling that the law gov-
erning parliamentary elections held
over three months starting in
November was unconstitutional. That
decision could lead to the dissolution
of the Islamist-dominated parliament
or a partial repeat of the election.
Shaq, like Mubarak a former air
force ofcer, is widely viewed as the
quintessential feloul, or remnant
of the old regime. His law and order
platform has resonated among many
Egyptians frustrated by persistently
tenuous security, a faltering econo-
my and a seemingly endless wave of
protests, sit-ins and strikes.
While a Shaq win will most like-
ly lead to an eruption of protests, a
Morsi presidency is widely feared
to serve as a vehicle for more reli-
gion in government and restrictions
on freedoms, a prospect that liber-
als, leftists, women and minority
Christians nd to be alarming.
Should Mubarak die in the com-
ing days, it could also have an
impact on the result of the runoff.
We are a very emotional people.
So, if Mubarak dies before the elec-
tion, there will be an outpouring of
sympathy for the regime, and Shaq
can certainly benet from that, said
Mahmoud Zaki, a political activist
and a Brotherhood member. When
Mubaraks grandson died several
years ago, we all forgot what he did
for us and we mourned with him the
loss of the young boy.
Mubaraks health deteriorates in prison
WASHINGTON Commerce
Secretary John Bryson said Monday
he will take a medical leave of
absence to undergo tests and evalua-
tions after suffering a seizure in con-
nection with a succession of trafc
accidents in the Los Angeles area.
Bryson informed President Barack
Obama that he was taking a medical
leave so that I can focus all of my
attention on resolving the health
issues that arose over the weekend,
according to a
s t a t e m e n t
released by the
d e p a r t me n t .
D e p u t y
S e c r e t a r y
Rebecca Blank
will serve as act-
ing commerce
secretary in
B r y s o n s
absence.
White House press secretary Jay
Carney said in a statement that
Obamas thoughts were with Bryson
and his family.
The 68-year-old former utility
executive struck a car stopped for a
train twice on Saturday after-
noon and then rammed into another
vehicle with his car a few minutes
later. He was found unconscious in
his vehicle, and government ofcials
said Monday he had had a seizure,
which could play a role in whether
hes charged with felony hit-and-run.
It wasnt clear whether the medical
episode preceded or followed the col-
lisions, but Bryson hasnt suffered a
seizure before, said a department of-
cial who spoke on condition of
anonymity to discuss the secretarys
medical history. Bryson has a limit-
ed recall of the events, the ofcial
said.
The crashes drew attention because
of health concerns involving a mem-
ber of Obamas Cabinet, as well as
the challenge investigators face when
trying to determine whether someone
should be held criminally responsible
because of adverse health.

How will the city replace the joy?
Editor,
Thanks for reporting on this:

cle_preview.php?id=235862&title=Last
%20skate%20looming?
What a tragedy. Revenue, revenue,
revenue not community, community,
community.
Go there some Tuesday afternoon ...
watch the joy in kids faces learning
how to skate.
Go there some Saturday afternoon in
hockey season and watch some serious-
ly competitive and seriously talented
athletes going at it hammer and tongs.
Go there some Sunday morning and
watch the kids learning to play hockey.
The joy on their faces and the goal cel-
ebrations are a thing to behold.
Go there some Sunday afternoon ...
watch all the families skating and
laughing together and beating the heat.
Sure the city wants its cut of that
extra revenue, but for what? To pay the
pensions? How will the city replace the
joy?

Closure of Ice Chalet
Editor,
As a father of two boys who play ice
hockey at Bridgepointe ice rink and a
resident of Foster City, I am very disap-
pointed and saddened by a prospect of
Ice Chalet closing in favor of retail
space (Last skate looming? published
in the June 8 edition of the Daily
Journal). We do not need more retail
stores at Bridgepointe, but the ice rink
gives so much pleasure and enjoyment
to children and adults alike who use it.
Please do not allow this amazing recre-
ational facility to cease to exist.

Letters to the editor
By Julie McAuliffe
T
he article and editorial in the
Friday, June 8 edition of the
Daily Journal discussing closure
of the Bridgepointe Ice Rink noted that
the rink had lost its synergy and implied
many San Mateo residents never used
the rink. As a San Mateo hockey mom
who is at the rink almost every day, I
can tell you that the rink is a vibrant and
well-used facility.
To start, there are many kids on the ice
at 5 a.m. to skate before school, and also
early-morning adult hockey games.
Later in the morning, the skating starts
for very young hockey players and g-
ure skaters, continuing after school and
into the evening for the older competi-
tors. Open skates at night are available
to the public, and always have many par-
ticipants, especially on the weekends.
After Open Skate ends, there are more
league hockey practices, high school
practices (yes, we have a high school
team called the Peninsula Predators
rst in their division right now), junior
league practices and games, college
games and adult league games. Often
the rink is in use until the wee hours of
the morning. On weekends, there are
hockey league games, gure skating
events, more open skates, adult hockey
league games, and also an in-house
league that supports hundreds of players
each week as they are learning to skate
and play.
In addition, the rink supports fundrais-
ers, charity events and community
events for many local schools, churches
and community groups again with
hundreds of attendees. You can always
nd birthday parties on weekends, along
with broom hockey, disco skating and
other fun events. And just watch the joy-
ous smiles on the faces of the kids in the
San Mateo County Adaptive PE program
as they whirl around in their wheelchairs
on the ice. During the summer, kids
camps are offered for hockey players,
gure skaters and also for general ice
skating lessons and craft activities. This
is not the picture of a recreational center
that has lost its vibrancy.
The editorial said at the time (the
recreational agreement was made), many
enjoyed having such recreational choices
so close, implying that wasnt the case
any more. As a parent, I would say it is
even more important today, when
schools are eliminating PE and after
school sports. Kids (and adults) need
recreational activities close by for a
healthy lifestyle, and skating is a great
way to accomplish that. The article cited
nearby rinks such as Belmont,
Redwood City, Dublin and San Jose. I
wouldnt call Dublin and San Jose
nearby (both are at least 45 minutes
away), and neither Belmont nor
Redwood City offer the wide array of
events and activities that are offered at
Bridgepointe, nor do they have the
capacity to do so. There truly is nowhere
close to go if the Bridgepointe rink is
closed. Even the further away facilities,
such as San Jose, are at capacity and
cannot possibly absorb the impact of a
Bridgepointe closure.
The argument was also made that use
of the rink has become more regional,
with leagues from all around the Bay
Area coming to Bridgepointe for hockey.
Yes, our Bridgepointe teams do play
teams from all over the Bay Area, but I
would view that as a plus this brings
folks into our area who spend money
here they eat at our restaurants, shop
at our stores, purchase our gas, stay in
our hotels and support our area nan-
cially in so many ways while they are
here. That would all be lost if the rink
goes away.
Regarding the revenue and sales tax
projections if the rink were replaced
with retail shops are they realistic, or
overly optimistic? Many San Mateo
retail shops and other companies have
not made it through this tough economy
are these projections we can truly
count on? And what about the parking
and trafc congestion problems that
more retail shops would bring even
today it is difcult to nd parking by the
rink, and that would signicantly
increase if the rink were replaced with
retail shops. There are many locations to
add more shops and increase city rev-
enue, but where else would you put an
ice rink?
The editorial points out that front and
center is the citys need for elds. Yes,
that is a challenge my hockey player
is the youngest of four, and all of my
kids (including him) played AYSO soc-
cer so I do know the struggle of nding
elds. However, soccer is not the answer
for all kids or adults, and recreationally,
we should continue to offer a variety of
sports to our community soccer, soft-
ball, baseball, football, bocce, tennis,
golf, gymnastics, basketball, volleyball,
and yes, even ice hockey and gure skat-
ing.
An on-site indoor climbing facility has
also been suggested as a replacement for
the ice rink. There currently is such a
facility on the San Mateo/Belmont bor-
der, and does anyone really think such a
facility at Bridgepointe would service
the thousands of people who use the ice
rink? The editorial suggests that the dis-
cussion is not about keeping the ice rink,
but rather what to replace it with
elds or climbing facility? I would pro-
pose that we need to include keeping the
ice rink in the discussion; it is a vital and
important part of our San Mateo/Foster
City recreational community, and needs
to stay right where it is.
Julie McAuliffe has been a resident of San
Mateo for the last 14 years. She is the co-
owner of Always Quilting in San Mateo.
Save the ice rink a win for the community
The writing
on the wall
O
h, Common Core, where were you when during
my elementary school years? I was an overachiev-
ing little thing, to the point Id be frustrated when
I earned Bs instead of As and
my parents found themselves
telling me to chill out rather
than try harder. But my hand-
writing was so terrible I took
to joking of plans for a medical
career just so it wouldnt mat-
ter. In third grade, I received a
C in that subject one quarter.
Justifying was over; I cried.
If only Id been born decades
later. A new set of national
standards known as the
Common Core now establishes
new guidelines for states on
what the kiddies should know at the end of each school
year. Cursive didnt make the grade. Also out, according to
news reports, are literature, rote math skills and even
spelling grabs nary a glance. The goals, it seems, are to
develop critical thinking with more focus on what to do
with information than on how to actually gather or create it.
The shift is understandable; the innovators and iconoclasts
of the world didnt make their mark spitting out multiplica-
tion tables or knowing necessarily how to diagram a sen-
tence properly. They took information and did something
with it. Yet dont the basics still form important building
blocks?
Spell check can certainly correct words but it wont nec-
essary pick the right usage. Same goes for grammar.
Sure, the iPhone can do math and the Internet can nd
references. But what if batteries die? What if the child is
somewhere that, God forbid, WiFi isnt working? What if
we want our kids to wander through an actual four-walled
library and know what the Dewey Decimal System is, even
if its actual classications remain elusive?
Im not advocating a full return to microche and looking
up old magazine articles via bound volumes but if
Hollywood ever remakes the 1984 comedy Ghostbusters it
will need to completely revamp the ghostly librarian scene
in which cards y from drawers. What kid even knows what
a card catalog is?
Looking for ways to better educate is never a bad idea but
change is not always good. Remember new math?
According to my parents, my classes were back to learning
old math after their generations failed attempt at contempo-
rary learning. Of course, at that age, all math was new to me
and I heartily advocated that the Luddites should cram their
old-fashioned notions and let students have calculators in
the classroom and digital watches on their wrists.
Yes, along with my sad attempt at penmanship, reading a
clock also didnt stick well in my young brain. My parents
tried. They practiced with me. They bought me a practice
clock with moveable hands.
This is unnecessary. Everything will soon be digital! Id
protest. Notice how childhood managed to develop my
skills at debate? Think Common Core would consider that a
critical skill? In fact Im still using it to explain away my
lack of knowledge about driving a stick. Arent all cars
automatic?
Eventually, though, the perseverance won out and Im
able to buy and use watches more fashionable than a plastic
Casio. Im also able to shake my head when current
teenagers cant read a clock a friends daughter was
asked to check the time after a power failure. She was clue-
less. Similar stories abound about writing in this era of tex-
ting shorthand. A friends cousin claimed she was never
taught to capitalize the beginning of every sentence.
Seriously.
The Common Core guidelines include some skills that are
a long time coming. Keyboarding, for instance, will proba-
bly help students a lot better than memorizing the capital
cities of every state and country. Then again, one never
knows when some piece of knowledge will come in handy
or spark a life-long interest.
Perhaps this tech-centric approach is just the thing to
churn out the next classes of savvy learners and forward
thinkers. Yet, I cant help but think there is still some benet
to teaching skills that dont require many tools beyond a
brain and pencil. Without them, these students will have a
world of possibility before them because of technology but
be handicapped to function when it fails. The writing is on
the wall even if it is not in cursive.

NEW YORK A burst of enthusi-
asm over a rescue of Spanish banks
melted away Monday within hours, and
investor anxiety about the troubled
finances of Europe grew on both sides
of the Atlantic.
On Wall Street, stocks opened
sharply higher but sank all day. Selling
only accelerated in the last hour of
trading, and the Dow Jones industrial
average closed down 142 points.
More alarming, bond investors sig-
naled that they are less confident about
lending money to the governments of
both Spain and Italy, which investors
fear will be next to seek help.
The rescue, announced Saturday, fig-
ured to soothe financial markets.
Instead, it inflamed them.
Investors are already worried about
weaker U.S. job growth and an eco-
nomic slowdown in Asia. And the next
flashpoint in the Europe crisis is just
days away an election in Greece on
Sunday that could speed that countrys
exit from the euro.
Jim Herrick, director of equity trad-
ing at Baird & Co., said investors real-
ized that this Band-Aid approach with
Spain will not solve larger problems in
Europe and that this could be a long,
arduous process.
As investors considered the long-
term fate of Europe, Herrick said, it
was time to sell.
European countries committed to
funnel up to $125 billion to Spain to
distribute to its banks, which have been
driven almost to insolvency from a bust
in real estate prices four years ago.
Spain became the fourth European
nation to seek a rescue, after Greece,
Portugal and Ireland.
Particularly over the past six weeks,
financial markets have worried that the
debt problems in Europe will explode
into a world financial crisis and hurt
the fragile global economy.
Those strategists had predicted a
rally in stocks after the deal was
announced. But the relief was short-
lived.
Investors appeared uncertain about
whether the rescue would be enough to
save Spanish banks and whether the
terms of the loan, still undisclosed,
would deliver another blow to the
recession-hobbled Spanish economy.

SAN FRANCISCO Apple is kick-
ing an important Google application off
its iPhone and buddying up with
Facebook rather than Googles social
network, as it distances itself from a bit-
ter rival in the phone arena.
Googles Maps application has resided
on the iPhone since Apple launched the
very rst version of the phone in 2007.
Its one of the core apps on the phone,
and cant be deleted by the user.
But on Monday, Apple executives said
Google Maps will be replaced by an
Apple-developed app in iOS 6, the new
operating system for iPhones, iPads and
iPod Touches. Its set to be released late
this year.
Apple and Google are locked in a ght
over the attention of hundreds of mil-
lions of phone users, and the advertising
opportunities that come with owning a
mapping application.
Smartphones from companies like
Samsung and Googles own Motorola
division are the chief alternatives to the
iPhone, and Apple has been suing those
manufacturers in court, accusing them of
ripping off the iPhones ground-breaking
features.
Apple also said its building Facebook
into iOS 6, snubbing the Google Plus
social network. Users will be able to
update their Facebook status by talking
to their phones, and like movies and
apps in Apples iTunes store, Apple
executive Scott Forstall said.
The announcements were part of the
keynote presentation that kicked off
Apples annual Worldwide Developers
Conference in San Francisco.
Apple presented new features in both
phone and Mac software, plus updated
laptops. But investors were mildly disap-
pointed, as they expected more substan-
tive news, like a hint of Apples ambition
to get into making TVs. Analysts had
speculated that Apple would at least
update the software on the Apple TV, a
small box that connects a TV set to
iTunes for movie downloads, as a prel-
ude to perhaps launching a fully inte-
grated TV set.
Apple shares closed down $9.15, or
1.6 percent, at $571.17.
Apple updates its iOS software every
year, to coincide with the launch of a
new iPhone.
Among other updates in iOS 6,
Apples voice-command application
Siri will add a host of new languages,
including Spanish, Korean and
Mandarin Chinese, Forstall said. She
will also be able to launch applications
and movies, and will run on iPads for
the rst time.
Google Maps off iPhone, Facebookin
SAN FRANCISCO Next month,
Apple will release its new operating sys-
tem for Mac computers.
Dubbed Mountain Lion, Mac OS X
10.8 will cost $19.99 $10 cheaper
than what the current system, Lion,
costs. Those buying Mac computers
starting on Monday will get the upgrade
for free when its available.
Apple Inc. already demonstrated many
of the Mountain Lion features in
February. The new software narrows the
gap between the PC and phone software
packages, making Mac personal com-
puters work more like iPhones.
Its similar to what Microsoft Corp. is
doing with its forthcoming Windows 8
system. That system, expected this fall,
will bring the look and user interface of
Windows Phone to PCs.
Among the features of Mountain Lion:
The new software will have better
integration with social networks such as
Facebook Inc.s. It will have built-in
features to facilitate sharing on
Facebook, Twitter, Flickr and other
services. For instance, youll get noti-
cations when you get a message or a
mention in a Facebook or Twitter post.
You need to sign in only once, and you
can share directly from other apps you
are using.
Power Nap keeps your Mac updated
even while its in power-saving sleep
mode. It will get your email messages,
back up your les and download soft-
ware updates automatically. It will work
with recent MacBook Air computers and
the higher-end MacBook Pro model, the
one with the sharper, Retina display.
A new Messages app, copied from
Apples mobile operating system, will
replace iChat. It will allow you to send
messages to other Apple users, whether
that person is on a Mac or an Apple
mobile device.
Mountain Lion will be integrated
with iCloud, the new Internet storage
service designed for the mobile devices.
The software will bring dictation to
Macs, essentially allowing the computer
to type as you talk.
Game Center will store high game
scores and help users nd opponents on
both Macs and Apple mobile devices.

MADRID Euphoria over a lifeline
of up to (euro) 100 billion ($125 billion)
to rescue Spains hurting banks morphed
into a nancial markets rout in a matter of
hours Monday, as investors digested the
still-undened plan and became con-
cerned the country may be unable to repay
the new loans.
The rate on Spanish 10-year bonds a
measure of market trust in a countrys
ability to repay debt rose to an alarm-
ingly high yield of 6.47 percent at the
close of trading after falling to 6 percent in
the morning. And the benchmark IBEX-
35 stock index closed down 0.5 percent
after surging 6 percent in the morning.
Overshadowing Spains acceptance
over the weekend of a bailout for banks
burdened by toxic property assets and
loans are Greek elections next weekend
and concerns that the anti-bailout left-
wing party Syriza could become the
largest party in parliament, putting the
countrys membership in the zone at risk.
Investors also zeroed in on Italy, send-
ing its bond yields sharply higher amid
worries it could be next in line for a
bailout because of a deepening recession
and increasing pressure on the administra-
tion of Premier Mario Monti.

One of the most inuential names in local
and national wrestling has died.
Menlo College announced on Monday that
wrestling pioneer Lee Allen died at 77 after a
long battle with congestive heart failure.
I cant say enough
about him, said Keith
Spataro, Menlo College
athletic director who
wrestled for Allen at
Skyline College in San
Bruno then hired him to
be the womens wrestling
coach at Menlo in 2001.
Its there that Allen
stayed until the 2009-
2010 season.
He was a pretty simple man, Spataro said.
He loved to compete, he really didnt need
the greater things in life to be happy. He was
really content with the life he created and he
made everyone feel like they were a part of his
family. He was an amazing man.
Born Dec. 28, 1934 in St. Francis, Kansas,
Allen and his family moved to Sandy, Ore.
during the Dust Bowl in 1938.
Allen enjoyed a very successful high school
career, going undefeated in his team, accord-
ing to TheMat.com.
Allen took home four state titles and then
excelled at the college level at the University
of Oregon.

C
oming out of Crystal Springs
Uplands School as an eighth
grader, Menlo School baseball
player Freddy Avis had a big decision to
make attend a large public high school
or a smaller, more intimate private school.
Avis neighborhood school is Palo Alto
High, but Avis was not necessarily a big-
school kind of guy.
After his freshman year at Palo Alto,
Avis transferred to Menlo and the rest, as
they say, is history.
I went from a class of 35 (at Crystal
Springs) to a (freshman) class of 500,
Avis said. I was more of a private-school
guy. I found Menlo is a place you can
pursue multiple interests.
Turns out, Avis would have been in a big
sh in any size pond. He made the Palo
Alto varsity squad his freshman year and
after moving to Menlo, seamlessly became
one of the best players Menlo has ever pro-
duced.
For his efforts, Avis is this years San
Mateo Daily Journal Baseball Player of the
Year.
Hes right up there as one of best,
athletic-ability wise, said Menlo man-
ager Craig Schoof. Weve been fortu-
nate. ... Ive seen the ability in him. Its
more of a surprise when he doesnt per-
form. Hes a special, special talent on
the mound and at the plate.
His numbers this year were simply video
game-esque. He batted .496, with an on-
base percentage of .547 and a slugging
percentage of .896. He tied for the team
lead in RBIs and doubles with 31 and 10,
respectively, and led the Knights in homers
(7) and triples (5).
On the mound, Avis sported a 5-2 record
one of those losses was to St. Francis
with a 1.88 earned run average, allowing
only a dozen earned runs and 22 hits in 44
2/3 innings pitched. He also had a 2-to-1
strikeout-to-walk ratio, nishing with 76
strikeouts and just 33 walks.
Schoof said hes never seen a more tal-
ented player who wants to win as much as
Avis. Despite all that talent, Avis is a team-
rst guy.
He cares so much and he tries so hard,
its been one thing to try and calm him
down and not try to do too much, Schoof
said. (The good thing about this team is)
it wasnt always about Freddy. I think he
grew a lot over the last three years, under-
standing he doesnt have to go out and win
every game.
Avis team-rst mentality was put to the
test in the Central Coast Section playoffs.
A sore arm and an illness limited him to
just two innings pitched.
He gave everything he had this season,
Schoof said. He got so much bigger and
stronger than his body could handle.
While he knew he didnt have much left
in his arm, he was determined to help the
team as much as he could in every other
aspect of the game. Playing primarily rst
base, Avis went 7 for 14 in the playoffs.
Three of those hits were titanic home runs
and he drove in a run for every hit he had,
nishing with seven RBIs in four games.
It was denitely a disappointment. Its
always fun to pitch in the playoffs. Thats
when everyone is watching, Avis said. I
knew if I couldnt help my team on
defense, I wanted to do everything I could
to help on offense how can I make a dif-
ference when Im not pitching?
Avis prowess at the plate merely solidi-
fied the fact many baseball observers
already knew he can get the job done
both on the mound and offensively. Avis
really burst on the scene as a junior, star-
ring at the Area Codes Games last summer
in Long Beach and becoming an early
commit to Stanford as a pitcher. But Avis
showed hes no slouch with a bat in his
hand.
I might have a little more recognition as
a pitcher, but I like to think I can swing it,
too. For Menlo, I tried to be a complete
player, Avis said.
Said Schoof: I get to watch him every
day and I think his bat speed can play at
the next level. If [Stanford] gives him a
chance to hit and watch the ball jump off
his bat, hell force his way (into an at-bat)
somewhere.

MLB, union hire new
independent drug administrator
NEW YORK Major League Baseball
and the players union have appointed a new
independent administrator for the sports drug
prevention and treatment program.
The hiring of Dr. Jeffrey Anderson was
announced Monday. He has been the director
of sports medicine and head team physician at
the University of Connecticut since 1994.
Anderson also is the chair of the NCAA
Committee on Competitive Safeguards and
Medical Aspects of Sports.
Dr. Bryan Smith had held the baseball spot
since 2006. In his nal annual report issued
last December, he said the number of drug
tests conducted by MLB rose 3 percent over
the past year.
Baseball rules allowed either MLB or the
union to not renew Smith after his term
expired. The union decided not to bring him
back.

France, England end in draw
REUTERS
Frances Nasri,left,shoots and scores against England during their Group D Euro 2012 soccer
match at the UEFAchampioships. Nasris goal drew the match at 1-1.
DONETSK, Ukraine France dominated
England everywhere except on the score-
board.
The English held on for a 1-1 draw with
France on Monday at the European
Championship, giving the Group D favorites
one point each. The French finished the
match with 19 shots, 15 on target. England
managed only three toward net.
Joleon Lescott put England in the lead with
a header in the 30th minute, and Samir Nasri
leveled for France shortly before halftime
with a strike into the bottom corner of the
net.
France still has not won a match at a major
tournament since the 2006 World Cup. The
national team, however, is unbeaten in its last
22 matches.
I think we have to be happy with that,
France coach Laurent Blanc said. We were
too timid at the start, there was a bit of pres-
sure that got to us, and then we got better
actually after we conceded the goal thats
when we started playing.
England took the lead when captain Steven
Gerrard curled in a free kick from the right
after defender Patrice Evra fouled James
Milner. Lescott sneaked behind a defender
and was able to nod the ball past France goal-
keeper Hugo Lloris. It was Englands only
on-target shot.
I think we played much better, Evra said.
In the end it was a draw and we are a little
bit frustrated. At times it was like there were
15 bodies on the team at times.
It was really difficult for us to find the
space. They played in the way that Chelsea
played against Barcelona. People laugh.
Maybe they want England to play more foot-
ball, but if they win the tournament like that,
they will be happy.
Frances equalizer was all about one-touch
football. Florent Malouda, Evra and Franck
Ribery flicked the ball around the left side of
Englands penalty area to free up space for
Nasri, who put in a low shot before England
goalkeeper Joe Hart could react.
The England defense was really low, so I
had to take a shot, Nasri said. The weird
thing is Joe Hart knows me from Manchester
City, and knows I normally I open my
(instep), so this time I closed it.
After running away in celebration, televi-
sion replays showed Nasri shouting Shut
your mouth, in French as he looked in the
direction of the England bench. He then
brought his finger to his lips as if to tell
someone to hush.
In the final seconds of the match, Hart
pushed away Karim Benzemas goal-bound
shot. Moments before, the Real Madrid for-
wards curling effort was heading for the top
corner until it was headed clear.
Yohan Cabayes controlled shot in the 80th
minute also beat Hart but was deflected away
just before it reached the bottom corner.
Well look at our performance and ana-
lyze what weve done right and what weve
done wrong, Gerrard said. I think all in all
were satisfied with a point.
Host country strikes win
KIEV, Ukraine Andriy Shevchenko
made his coach look brilliant, scoring two
great headers Monday to give Ukraine a 2-1
win over Sweden at the European
Championship.
After Zlatan Ibrahimovic had given Sweden
the lead in the 52nd minute, Shevchenko
responded by heading in the equalizer just
three minutes later and then added the winner
in the 61st.
The victory gives Ukraine a serious chance
of advancing from Group D after England and
France drew 1-1, while Sweden faces an
uphill battle to remain in the tournament.
We showed today our character, our good
football, Shevchenko said. We have very
good chances to qualify.
Shevchenko is already a national icon in
Ukraine and carried the hopes of the team
going into the tournament. In front of sea of
yellow and blue in the packed Olympic
Stadium, he certainly didnt disappoint. He
rewarded the faith coach Oleg Blokhin
showed in the veteran who was not a certain
starter for the tournament.
Showing ashes of the scorers instinct that
once made him one of the worlds top strikers,
Shevchenko beat Olof Mellberg to a cross for
his rst goal and then met a corner to head the
ball inside the near post for the second.
That set off shouts of Sheva that could
reverberate throughout the nation for a long
time.
Every game for us is like a final,
Shevchenko said. We showed great football
tonight.
These days its Ibrahimovic who is consid-
ered a world-class forward, but AC Milans
current star came up short against its former
standout forward.
Ibrahimovic did provide the focal point of
the Swedish attack and shaved the post with a
header in the rst half before putting his team
ahead.
Kim Kallstrom collected a long cross at the
left side of the penalty area and sent it to
Ibrahimovic in front of the net. The Sweden
striker calmly slotted the ball past Andriy
Pyatov and into the net.
But Sweden seemed to relax after that and
Shevchenko took advantage by meeting Oleh
Gusevs cross and sending his header past
Andreas Isaksson.
That made the home crowd erupt and the
noise grew even louder six minutes later as the
35-year-old Shevchenkos header from a cor-
ner found its way past defender Mikael Lustig
at the near post.

Its LeBron versus Durant in NBA Finals
By Brian Mahoney
OKLAHOMA CITY LeBron
James is quickly racking up MVP
awards while Kevin Durant is col-
lecting scoring titles at the same
pace.
Either could make a case as the
best player in the NBA.
Neither is interested in anything
beyond team accomplishments.
One of them is about to get the
only crown he craves, their head-to-
head duel the leading story line of
the NBA nals that begin Tuesday
night when Durant and the
Oklahoma City Thunder host James
and the Miami Heat.
I think its going to be a great
matchup, Miamis Dwyane Wade
said Monday. I think its going to
be two players thats going to be
tough to guard each other, thats
going to have to guard each other.
Both insist the series is more than
an individual
matchup and
the All-Star tal-
ent around them
supports the
claim. But the
focus will be on
James, the
three-time MVP
in his third shot
at a champi-
onship, and
Durant, the three-time scoring
champion who is playing for his
rst at age 23.
Its the rst time the MVP and
scoring champ have met in the nals
since 1997, when Michael Jordans
Bulls knocked off MVP Karl
Malone and Utah.
Everybody is going to make the
most out of the matchup of me ver-
sus LeBron, but its the Thunder
versus the Heat, Durant said. One
guy versus another guy, its not
going to be a 1-on-1 matchup to win
the series, its
going to be all
about the team.
They are
friends and
workout part-
ners, play the
same small for-
ward position
and are blessed
with unlimited
basketball talent. After years of
waiting on a James-Kobe Bryant
nals matchup that never material-
ized, the league gets one thats per-
haps even better, if not quite as sexy,
to wrap up a successful season after
the lockout.
Its great for the NBA, Miamis
Shane Battier said. I anticipate
record ratings, which is great, so
maybe we can get some of the
escrow check back from the owners.
First and foremost, thats why Im
excited to see Kevin Durant versus
LeBron James. But selsh reasons
aside, its just a great matchup.
Theres so many young, great
players in this league and estab-
lished players and All-Stars. If
youre a basketball fan, youre miss-
ing out if youre not watching this
series.
Both have sworn off Twitter, at
least for the time being, James post-
ed his last message on April 27 and
Durant on May 1.
For now, KingJames and
KDTrey5 will stick to making their
statements on the court.
Kevin is locked in on what he
needs to do to help the team win,
Thunder All-Star point guard
Russell Westbrook said. Its going
to be a great series for both teams
and hopefully we can come out with
the win.
James is back for a third crack at
his first championship, his
Cleveland Cavaliers swept aside by
San Antonio in 2007 just a couple of
weeks before Durant was drafted by
the then-Seattle SuperSonics with
the No. 2 pick in the draft.
James fell short again last year in
his rst season with Miami, then
carried the Heat to another chance
with victories in the nal two games
of the Eastern Conference nals
against the Celtics, starting with a
sensational, 45-point, 15-rebound
Game 6 performance in Boston.
You know, third time in the nals
in nine years, theres a lot of guys
who dont get there once, Wade
said. Of course, that right there in
itself is an honor. But you want to
win one. You want to get there and
win one. Obviously, LeBron wants
to win a championship. I cant say
that he wants to win more than the
next man, than anybody on OKC. I
cant say that. But obviously he
wants to win and get another oppor-
tunity. Im sure he will try to seize it
a little bit better than he did the rst
two times.

LOS ANGELES The Los Angeles
Kings 45-year Stanley Cup quest ended in a
triumphant urry of blood, sweat and power-
play goals. After missing two chances to claim
the title last week, the long-suffering Kings
are NHL champions for the rst time.
Hooray for Hockeywood.
Jeff Carter and Trevor Lewis scored two
goals apiece, playoff MVP Jonathan Quick
made 17 saves in his latest stellar perform-
ance, and the Kings beat the New Jersey
Devils 6-1 Monday night in Game 6 of the
nals, becoming the rst eighth-seeded play-
off team to win the league title.
Captain Dustin Brown had a goal and two
assists for Los Angeles, which ended its dom-
inant postseason run before a frenzied bunch
of its heartiest fans, incessantly waving towels
and glowsticks.
The crowd including several dozen Kings
faithful who have been at rinkside since the
teams berth as an expansion franchise in
1967, waiting for one glimpse of the Stanley
Cup.
After taking a 3-0 series lead and then los-
ing two potential clinching games last week,
the Kings finished ferociously at Staples
Center just when the sixth-seeded Devils
appeared to have a chance for one of the
biggest comebacks in nals history.
One penalty abruptly changed the tone of
the series. Brown, Carter and Lewis scored
during a ve-minute power play in the rst
period after Steve Bernier was ejected for
boarding Rob Scuderi, leaving the veteran
defenseman in a pool of blood. Quick took it
from there, finishing a star-making two
months by allowing just seven goals in six
nals games.
You never know. You get to the dance, you
never know whats going to happen, Brown
said. We calmed down after losing two. It
was the rst time we had done that all play-
offs, and we nally got off to a good start.
Martin Brodeur stopped 19 shots for the
Eastern Conference champion Devils, just the
third team to force a Game 6 in the nals after
falling into an 0-3 hole.
Rookie Adam Henrique ended Quicks
shutout bid late in the second period after the
Kings had built a 4-0 lead, but Lewis and Matt
Greene added late goals for the Kings.
The Kings went 16-4 after barely making
the playoffs, eliminating the top three seeds in
the Western Conference in overwhelming
fashion as they matched the second-fastest run
to a title in NHL history.
Although the Devils gave them a little trou-
ble, the Kings took down every opponent in
their path after an inconsistent regular season.
Los Angeles boasted a talented, balanced
roster that peaked at the absolute perfect time
under midseason coaching hire Darryl Sutter.
Brown, just the second American-born captain
to raise the Cup, accomplished what even
Wayne Gretzky couldnt do in eight years in
Los Angeles.
Quick added one more dominant game to
his run, while Brown capped his own impres-
sive playoff work by nishing with 20 points,
tied for the postseason scoring lead with line-
mate Anze Kopitar.
Brown accepted the Cup from NHL
Commissioner Gary Bettman and skated
straight to center ice with it, triumphantly
thrusting it skyward and kissing the silver.
Brown handed it off rst to Willie Mitchell,
the 35-year-old defenseman who had never
won the Cup, and he gave it to long-injured
and recently returned forward Simon Gagne,
who nearly tripped before raising the Cup for
the rst time.
The stone-faced Sutter smiled broadly at his
rst chance to raise the Cup, and general man-
ager Dean Lombardi even took a turn after
declining it twice.

PARIS Rafael Nadal was worried.
A guy so uninching, so nearly unbeatable,
while sliding and grinding and pounding his
way past opponent after opponent at the
French Open, got a real case of nerves during
the 18 hours he and Novak Djokovic waited
for the restart of their rain-interrupted nal at
Roland Garros.
Instead of focusing on how close he was to
winning a record seventh French Open cham-
pionship, Nadal grew increasingly wary of the
other possible outcome: a loss in a fourth con-
secutive Grand Slam nal against Djokovic,
who was trying to become the rst man since
1969 to collect four straight major titles.
When play was halted by showers on
Sunday, Nadal was clinging to an ever-shrink-
ing lead. It wasnt until a few minutes before
setting foot back on Court Philippe Chatrier,
his favorite arena at his favorite tournament on
his favorite surface, that Nadal set aside his
anxiety. Oh, did he. The King of Clay over-
whelmed the No.1-ranked Djokovic for the 50
minutes and nine games they played Monday,
wrapping up a 6-4, 6-3, 2-6, 7-5 victory that
allowed Nadal to earn French Open trophy
No. 7, breaking a tie with Bjorn Borg.
You never know if youre going to win
another one, said the second-ranked Nadal,
who now owns 11 Grand Slam titles.
I dont know if I am the best or not, he
added. I am not the right one to say that.
Djokovic, for his part, had zero doubts. He
worked his way back into the match with an
eight-game run when it was pouring Sunday,
but otherwise was outplayed, at the start and
the nish.
Hes denitely (the) best player in history
... on this surface, said Djokovic, whose 27-
match Grand Slam winning streak ended,
and results are showing that hes one of the
best ever.
Cant argue with that. Since his French
Open debut at age 18 in May 2005, Nadal is
52-1 for his career at the tournament, the only
loss coming to Robin Soderling in the fourth
round in 2009. Hes just as good elsewhere on
clay, too: Nadals won eight titles at Monte
Carlo, seven at Barcelona, six at Rome.
Asked to explain his success on the sur-
face, Nadal pointed not to his uppercut of
a topspin-slathered forehand, or his supe-
rior returns of serve, but rather to his
movement, his mental fortitude, and this:
I always was scared to lose.
Djokovic gave Nadal reason for added con-
cern, having beaten him in the finals at
Wimbledon in July, the U.S. Open in
September, and the Australian Open in
January. Djokovic was attempting to be only
the third man to win four major tournaments
in succession, joining Don Budge in 1938, and
Rod Laver in 1962 and 1969.
Alas, Djokovic ran into Nadal at Roland
Garros. The same thing happened to Roger
Federer in 2006 and 2007, when his Grand
Slam bids fell one win short because of losses
to Nadal in the French Open nal.

Like several former Menlo players who took
their talents to The Farm most recently
Kenny and Danny Diekroeger Avis appears
committed to Stanford at the expense of begin-
ning a professional career. Avis was 25th-
round draft choice by the Washington
Nationals in the Major League Baseball draft
last week.
He basically grew up across the street from
Stanford. Its been a dream (of his) to play at
Sunken Diamond (Stanfords home eld),
Schoof said. Talking to a lot of scouts, if he
wasnt so committed to Stanford, he would be
a slam dunk rst-round (draft pick).
The ultimate goal for Avis is professional
baseball, but he also realizes the value of a
quality education. Avis understands pro ball
will be there when he is ready.
Playing professionally is what every young
baseball player wants to do, Avis said. My
commitment to Stanford is very strong. Im
thinking more long run than short run.
Continued from page 11
AVIS
was unwatchable for most of the bout as nei-
ther guy seemed willing to engage.
The ght in which nothing occurred for
nine-plus rounds nally produced two electri-
fying moments: in the 10th, a straight right
from Bailey found the mark and sent Jones to
the canvas for a stunning knockdown. In the
11th, the ght suddenly ended when Bailey
threw a monster uppercut and knocked Jones
down and out. An electrifying end to an other-
wise boring ght.
Super bantamweight ghters Jorge Arce and
Jesus Rojas stepped into the ring next and it
had all the makings of the ght of the night.
Arce scored a ash knockdown in the opening
seconds of the rst round, but Rojas recovered
nicely and was in position to make a ght of
it.
Until the second round, that is. In the open-
ing moments of the second, Rojas hit Arce
with a low blow. Before referee Kenny
Bayless could stop the action to warn Rojas,
Rojas jumped in with a head butt and, as Arce
turned away in pain, Rojas sent a crushing
blow to just behind Arces ear, sending him to
the canvas. Bayless negated the knockdown
and went to check on Arce, who was com-
plaining of a ringing in his ear and dizziness.
The ring doctor stepped in, did a quick exami-
nation of Arce and determined he could not
continue. Bayless then ruled the ght was a
no-contest.
Arce appeared to be a great deal of pain but,
in the post-ght interview in the ring, Rojas
called Arce a coward. This should set up a
very exciting rematch.
The biggest news of the night, however,
belonged to the Pacquiao-Bradley bout, which
was weird before the ghters even made it to
the ring. The announcers said, just minutes
before the ght, Pacquiao not only didnt have
his gloves on, but he wasnt even in the dress-
ing room. He was reportedly down the hall on
a treadmill, trying to get his calves stretched
out. That raised a red ag in my mind.
While Pacquiaos late entrance to the ring
and the subsequent decision had nothing to do
with each other, it was just another twist of
events in a weird evening of boxing.
Pacquiao appeared to batter Bradley for 12
rounds and no one in attendance could make a
case for Bradley winning the ght. When the
nal bell sounded, Bradley looked like a beat-
en ghter, even though he tried to put on his
best face.
As I sat with a neighbor, waiting for the
decision to be read, I said, I wouldnt be sur-
prised if theres a score that is something like
115-113. On my unofcial scorecard, I had
Pacquiao winning all but maybe one or two
rounds of the ght, as did my neighbor.
Not only was I right, but all three judges
had the same score two of whom unbeliev-
ably gave the ght to Bradley to give him the
split decision.
Its another huge black eye for the sport of
boxing and the Twitter-verse and Facebook
world blew up with talk of unbelievable,
horrible and x. There are some who
believe the ght was xed to ensure a massive
payday rematch between the two, but why
would anyone want to stain the sport just to
set up a rematch? The decision was so bad
that an Irish bookmaker was refunding money
to those who bet on Pacquiao.
I love the sport of boxing, a passion passed
down to me by my father, and I usually
defend the sport against the likes of MMA.
But its hard to stay excited about a sport
when decisions like this happen.
People are asking, Is boxing dead? It may
not be, but its denitely on life support.

Those of you who follow me in this space
remember when the Mollat family had to put
down our beloved dog Cosmo in April 2011.
In July of last year, we brought in another
dog, Jake, to spend a lifetime with us.
It was a tragic weekend, however. While on
a walk at a local nature preserve, Jake stuck
his nose in the grass and was bitten by a rat-
tlesnake. We rushed him to the emergency
room and had to make the gut-wrenching
decision again to put down another
member of the family. The cost was prohibi-
tive a vial of anti-venom was $850 and
there was no guarantee he would pull through.
We decided it was best to put him out of his
misery.
While my daughter is already talking about
getting another dog down the road, Im not so
sure. As usual, my wife and I took the deci-
sion very hard and a lot of tears owed.
This much heartbreak in such a short
amount of time makes it tough to think about
doing it again.

LOUNGE
From there, Allen went on to represent the
United States in the Olympic games two times
in 1956 as part of the freestyle team and in
1960 as a member of the Greco-Roman team.
In those Olympics, Allen took home eighth
place at 134.5 pounds.
Allen was also part of the rst U.S. team to
participate in the 1961 World Championships
in Japan.
He was just an inspirational man, Spataro
said. He didnt know the word no it did-
nt exist in his vocabulary. If he needed it
done, he got it done. And he [instilled] that
unto all of us that came in contact with him.
Allen was not only the inaugural head coach
of the Menlo womens wrestling squad but, in
2001, his Lady Oaks were the only such pro-
gram in any four-year college in the western
United States. Before then, Allen headed the
wrestling program at Skyline where men like
Spataro cut their teeth in the sport.
He was a real inspiration, Spataro said.
There were a lot of guys at Skyline who were
low income, who didnt have riches. And he
made us realize we could do anything we put
our minds to. Its something I know I took
with me through my career.
With Allens wisdom and guidance, the
Lady Oaks enjoyed tremendous success
throughout his Menlo career. The program
had more than 20 wrestlers take home All-
American honors and another four earn
national championships, including both of his
daughters Sara and Katherine, two of the more
storied Lady Oaks wrestlers not just locally,
but at the national level as well.
He was one of the rst coaches in America
to really nd women in wrestling, Spataro
said. So, he wasnt doing as a way to give his
daughters opportunity, he just stumbled across
it and really took to it. He was doing womens
wrestling before anybody.
Then when I started the wrestling program
at Menlo, we got to talking and he said a
womens program would be a great comple-
ment to it. After we added womens wrestling,
it exploded across the country, thanks in no
small part to his efforts. He was a leader in
that eld.
Allens efforts were rewarded in 2009, as he
was presented by the Womens College
Wrestling Association as Coach of the Year.
He persevered and overcame because he
didnt understand the word no, Spataro
said. It was always, yes, how can we get this
done? There is no no and if there is no well
how can we overcome it and persevere.
Everyone that associated with him came away
with those qualities.
Allen leaves behind his wife, Joan Fulp and
daughters.

Sandusky trial opens with graphic testimony
BELLEFONTE, Pa. Jerry Sanduskys
trial in the Penn State scandal opened in
graphic fashion Monday with the rst witness
testifying that the retired coach molested him
in the locker-room showers and in hotels
while trying to ensure his silence with gifts
and trips to bowl games.
The man, now 28 and dubbed Victim 4 in
court papers, left nothing to the imagination as
he told the jury about the abuse he said he
endured for ve years beginning when he was
a teenager in the late 1990s.
Ive denied it forever, he testied, looking
straight at the prosecutor as Sandusky sat
motionless nearby.
Sandusky, 68, faces 52 counts that he sexu-
ally abused 10 boys over 15 years. The former
assistant football coach has denied the allega-
tions. His arrest last year shamed the universi-
ty and led to the ouster of beloved Hall of
Fame coach Joe Paterno and Penn States
president.
In opening statements, prosecutor Joseph
McGettigan III told the jury that Sandusky
was a predatory pedophile who methodical-
ly used his youth charity, The Second Mile, to
zero in on fatherless children or those with
unstable home lives, plied them with gifts and
took advantage of them sexually.
Sandusky lawyer Joe Amendola countered
that the case is imsy and that some of the
accusers apparently intend to sue and have a
nancial stake in the case a preview of the
battle to come as the defense.

Suspect in Auburn fatal
shooting has court record
AUBURN, Ala. The man sus-
pected in a weekend party shooting
that killed three people and wound-
ed three others was previously
arrested on charges involving guns
and twice sued for child support,
according to court records.
Authorities were searching
Monday for Desmonte Leonard, 22,
of Montgomery, who is accused of
opening re Saturday night at an
apartment complex near Auburn
University after getting into a ght
with some of the victims over a
woman. He faces three counts of
capital murder.
Two of those slain were former
players for the schools powerhouse
football program.
Auburn Police Chief Tommy
Dawson said Leonard ed the scene
in a white Chevrolet that he aban-
doned on the way back to
Montgomery, about 55 miles away.
They believed he was in the
Montgomery area.
Court records show Montgomery
police arrested Leonard in 2008 on
a charge of carrying a pistol without
a license, after stopping a suspected
stolen vehicle and finding him
inside. Documents available online
didnt show whether the case was
ever resolved, but Leonard was
freed on bond within days.
Leonard was charged in 2009
with assault after allegedly shooting
a man in the groin, but prosecutors
dropped the case after the victim
told authorities Leonard wasnt the
shooter.
A Montgomery woman led a
paternity suit against Leonard on
Friday that identied him as the
father of a girl who turned 1 last
month.

HEALTH 17
Is ur MD 2 square? Some use e-tech with patients
By Lindsey Tanner
CHICAGO Is your doctor a technophobe? Increasingly,
the answer may be no. Theres a stereotype that says doctors
shun technology that might threaten patients privacy and their
own pocketbooks. But a new breed of physicians is texting
health messages to patients, tracking disease trends on Twitter,
identifying medical problems on Facebook pages and commu-
nicating with patients through email.
So far, those numbers are small. Many doctors still cling to
pen and paper, and are most comfortable using e-technology to
communicate with each other not with patients. But from
the nations top public health agency, to medical clinics in the
heartland, some physicians realize patients want more than a
15-minute ofce visit and callback at the end of the day.
Far from Silicon Valley and East Coast high-tech hubs,
Kansas City pediatrician Natasha Burgert offers child-rearing
tips on her blog, Facebook and Twitter pages, and answers
patients questions by email and text messages.
These tools are embedded in my work day, Burgert said.
This is something I do in between checkups. Its much easier
for me to shoot you an email and show you a blog post than it
is to phone you back. Thats what old-school physicians are
going to be doing, spending an hour at the end of the day
returning patients phone calls, she said.
She recently received a typical email from a mother won-
dering how to wean her 2-year-old from a pacier. With a few
thumb clicks, Burgert sent the mom a link to a blog post offer-
ing tips on that same topic.

patients, loves having e-access to the doctor
and says even emails late in the evening typi-
cally get a quick response.
Its so useful, Hartley said. Sometimes
parents get concerned about a lot of things that
maybe arent necessarily big deals and getting
off-hours reassurance is comforting, she said.
Burgert, 36, doesnt charge for virtual com-
munication, although some doctors do. She
says it enhances but doesnt replace ofce vis-
its or other personal contact with patients.
Colleagues look at me and kind of shake
their heads when I tell them what I do. They
dont have an understanding of the tools,
Burgert said. For the next generation thats
coming behind me, I think this will be much
more common.
Dr. Steven Nissen is from an older genera-
tion, but has started to dabble in e-technology.
A cardiologist at the Cleveland Clinic, Nissen
is in his 60s and says hes hardly a member of
the Twitterati. But with help from clinic
staffers, he recently led a live Twitter chat
about things like heart failure and cholesterol
problems, and found the process in some
ways maybe a little exhilarating.
This was an opportunity to use a different
communication channel to nd an audience to
talk about heart health, Nissen said.
The downside is that we dumb it down, he
said. Its very challenging for physicians, pri-
marily because the messages that we have are
not conducive to 14 characters. If you ask me a
question, youre likely to get a ve-minute
answer.
But with so many young people facing obe-
sity, which can contribute to heart problems,
Nissen said Twitter can be an effective way to
reach an important audience, and he plans to
use it more.
If it gets us through to the people who need
to hear the message, thats great, Nissen said.
The American Medical Association
acknowledges benets in using social media,
but also warns doctors to protect patient priva-
cy and maintain appropriate boundaries with
patients.
In a publicized case that makes doctors shud-
der, a state disciplinary board last year repri-
manded Rhode Island emergency medicine
physician Alexandra Thran for unprofessional
conduct and ned her $500 after she made
comments on her Facebook page about a
patients injury. Even though she didnt name
the patient, others who read the post gured out
the identity. Thran did not respond to requests
for comment.
Dr. Raoul Wolf, a pediatrics professor at the
University of Chicago, doesnt use social
media sites personally or professionally and
worries about the permanence of online com-
munication.
With anything on the Internet, its there for-
ever. Theres no calling it back, Wolf said.
Ask any politician.
Hard numbers are scarce on exactly how
many of the nations nearly 1 million doctors
use virtual communication for patient care, but
anecdotal evidence suggests the numbers are
rising.
A survey last summer of 501 randomly
selected doctors found that more than 20 per-
cent engaged in emails with patients over
secure networks, and similar numbers had
websites allowing patients to schedule visits or
download test results. Only 6 percent commu-
nicated with patients through social media;
that translates to about 60,000 doctors nation-
wide.
Doctors use of social media and virtual com-
munication for patient care is expected to
increase under the Accountable Care Act,
which encourages electronic health records and
the electronic exchange of health informa-
tion.
A study published online in March found
that 60 percent of state public health depart-
ments use Twitter or another social media site,
mostly to distribute information rather than
interact with patients.

The Feds more detailed Survey of
Consumer Finances is done every three years.
The latest survey showed Monday that much
of the drop in net worth from 2007 to 2010
reected the collapse of the housing market,
which drove down home values.
Among families that owned homes, the Fed
survey found that their median home equity
declined from $95,300 in 2007 to $55,000 in
2010, a drop of 42.3 percent. Home equity is
the homes value minus how much is owed on
the mortgage.
The Fed survey found t hat medi an
i ncomes fel l from $49, 600 i n 2007 t o
$45, 800 i n 2010, a drop of 7. 7 per-
cent .
The Fed survey found that the proportion of
families carrying a credit card balance fell to
39.4 percent in 2010. That was down 6.7 per-
centage points from 2007. Among families
with a credit card balance, the median balance
fell from $3,100 in 2007 to $2,600 in 2010, a
drop of 16.1 percent.
The proportion of families with debt that
had a debt payment that was late by 60 or
more days during 2010 rose to 10.8 percent,
up from 7.1 percent in 2007.

D-Sacramento, said that it would be easier to
go along with Browns proposal, but lawmak-
ers have a responsibility to their constituents,
including the most vulnerable.
Nobody wants to keep going through this,
certainly the people of California dont. And I
think we are making good progress and were
pretty close, but theres still a little ways to go
around how deep is deep enough, he told
reporters.
A budget proposal released by Assembly
Democrats later Monday would scrap many of
the governors proposed cuts, including $880
million from the states welfare-to-work pro-
gram, slashing his proposed reserve fund from
$1 billion to $614 million and postponing cuts
to Cal Grants for students who attend private
colleges until the following budget year.
Assemblyman Bob Blumenfield, D-
Sherman Oaks, chairman of the Assembly
Budget Committee, said lawmakers would
take up the proposal in committee on Tuesday.
He said that plan differs from Browns plan
by less than one percent of total spending.
We are down to dotting the Is and crossing
the Ts in this budget before voting on it later
this week, he said in a statement.
A spokesman for Gov. Jerry Brown, Gil
Duran, declined to comment on the details of
talks but said they are ongoing.
Both houses of the state Legislature are
required to pass a balanced spending plan by
Friday or risk losing their pay for every day
that the state goes without one. But a
Sacramento Superior Court judges ruling this
spring leaves it largely in the hands of law-
makers to decide whether their own plan is
balanced, after state Controller John Chiang
last year refused them payment.
Steinberg said the Legislature would not
rush a budget through at the expense of the
needy in order to ensure that they got their full
salaries. He said the pay issue is not relevant
to me.
Republicans have criticized Democrats for
not holding traditional committee hearings
where both parties cast votes on contentious
issues before the budget is presented to the
full Legislature. The GOP has been left out of
budget talks since voters in 2010 passed
Proposition 25, the majority-vote budget. It
allowed Democrats who control both houses
of the Legislature to approve a spending plan
without votes from the minority party,
although taxes still require a two-thirds vote.
Senate Minority Leader Bob Huff, R-
Diamond Bar, and Assembly Minority Leader
Connie Conway, R-Tulare, called on
Democrats to publish a proposed budget at
least 48 hours before a vote is scheduled so
that GOP lawmakers can be included. They
called the talks between Democrats a sham
budget process.
Budgets thrown together behind closed
doors or passed in the middle of the night are
one of the main reasons why California is fac-
ing chronic decits today, Huff and Conway
said in a joint statement before the Assembly
Democrats released their proposal.
Browns plan relies on voters approving an
initiative in November that would temporarily
raise sales taxes by a quarter cent for four
years and raise income taxes on individuals
who make more than $250,000 a year for
seven years. If voters reject the $8.5 billion in
taxes through mid-2013, schools and other
public entities would be subject to severe so-
called trigger cuts under Browns plan,
including a contingency plan that includes
shortening the public school year by as much
as three weeks.
He has already made progress toward his
goal of saving an estimated $839 million by
cutting most state employees pay and hours
by 5 percent. Late last week, the administra-
tion reached a deal with the union that repre-
sents California Highway Patrol officers.
They agreed to take one unpaid day off per
month starting July 1, which amounts to a 5
percent pay cut.
The controller also announced Monday that
May revenues were slightly above projec-
tions, with an additional $83.5 million coming
in to coffers mostly due to insurance taxes,
while personal income, sales and corporate
taxes all fell.
Democratic leaders were working with the
governor to resolve several policy issues,
including how much to send to local govern-
ments as part of Browns realignment plan
that shifted thousands of lower-level inmates
out of crowded state prisons and into county
jails. Browns ballot measure would guarantee
funding for local authorities assuming that
burden.
Steinberg has said he was uneasy with
Browns proposal to limit the amount of
money agencies can recover for battling wild-
res and restoring damaged public lands. The
U.S. Attorneys ofce has blasted the propos-
al as a fairly cynical attempt to benet the
timber industry.
Sen. Mark Leno, D-San Francisco, chair-
man of the Senate budget committee, told the
Associated Press that lawmakers should not
expect a oor vote before Friday. Steinberg
said if legislative leaders are not able to reach
a deal with the governor by then, they would
still present a budget by the deadline.
Well put up a very strong, credible budget
that does not have gimmicks and that has a
substantial reserve, he said.
BUDGET
HEALTH 19
By Lauran Neergaard
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Anyone whos had a
hospital stay knows the beeping monitors, the
pagers and phones, the hallway chatter, the
roommate, even the squeaky laundry carts all
make for a not-so-restful place to heal.
Hospitals need a prescription for quiet, and
new research suggests it may not be easy to
tamp down all the noise for a good nights
sleep.
In fact, the wards with the sickest patients
the intensive care units can be the loud-
est.
Its just maddening, says Dr. Jeffrey
Ellenbogen, sleep medicine chief at
Massachusetts General Hospital. He pointed
to one study that found the decibel level in
ICUs reaches that of a shout about half the
time.
Patient satisfaction surveys are packed with
complaints that the clamor makes it hard to
sleep. Yet remarkably little is known about
exactly how that affects patients bodies
and which types of noises are the most dis-
ruptive to shut-eye. So Ellenbogen and
researchers from Harvard and the Cambridge
Health Alliance recorded different kinds of
hubbub in a community hospital in Bostons
suburbs to try to nd out.
Since it wouldnt be appropriate to experi-
ment on sick people by disrupting their sleep,
12 healthy volunteers were enlisted. They
spent three nights in Mass Generals sleep lab,
slumbering as recorded hospital sounds
blared from nearby speakers at increasing vol-
umes.
Sure, a toilet ushing, voices in the hallway
or the ice machine woke people once they
were loud enough. But electronic sounds
were the most likely to arouse people from
sleep even at decibel levels not much
above a whisper, the researchers reported
Monday in the journal Annals of Internal
Medicine.
What electronic sounds? Particularly trou-
blesome was the beep-beep-beep from IV
machines that signals someone needs more
uid or medicine, one of the most common
machines in a hospital. Theyre just one of a
variety of alarms.
Those alarms are meant to alert hospital
workers, of course, so the nding raises a
conundrum. But some hospitals are testing
ways to make at least some monitors ash sig-
nals at the nurses stations rather than sound
loudly at the bedside.
The other surprises: The sleepers heart
rates temporarily jumped as much as 10 beats
a minute as they were aroused, the researchers
reported. And they didnt remember most of
the disruptions even though brain recordings
clearly showed their sleep was interrupted,
which suggests that patients complaints are
underestimating the problem.
My God, we delivered 100 sounds to this
person and woke them up 40 times and
theyre reporting to us just a couple of awak-
enings, Ellenbogen says with disbelief.
If healthy young adults had a pronounced
change in heart rate, imagine the stress of
alarms sounding all night long in an ICU full
of frail, older patients with weakened hearts,
he says.
It clearly has a big impact, agrees Dr. Ivor
Berkowitz of Johns Hopkins University in
Baltimore. Hes a pediatric ICU specialist and
wasnt involved with the research but calls it
compelling and would like to see children
studied in the same way.
Regularly getting too little sleep plays a
role in a number of health troubles, from
drowsy driving to high blood pressure, obesi-
ty, depression, memory problems and a weak-
ened immune system. Theres been far less
research on how much sleep disruption inter-
feres with recovery from illness. But some
studies show patients in noisier wards require
more medications and sedatives. Delirium
a dangerous state of confusion and agitation
is linked to sleep deprivation and the loss
of normal sleep-wake cycles during certain
hospitalizations, especially among older peo-
ple, Ellenbogen notes.
Noise isnt the only challenge. He says
sometimes patients are awakened for a blood
test or blood pressure check simply because
the overnight nurse assigned the task goes off
duty at 7 a.m.
Noisy hospitals need Rx for quiet as patients rest
Patient satisfaction surveys are packed with complaints that the clamor makes it hard to sleep.
Yet remarkably little is known about exactly how that affects patients bodies and which
types of noises are the most disruptive to shut-eye.

released Monday afternoon. The tax is
now passing with 50.3 percent of the
vote.
Measure U, the call for an 8 percent
tax on parking in the unincorporated
areas, is still losing with 47 percent of
the vote while hotel occupancy tax
Measure X has 47.1 percent. All the
measures needed a simply majority to
pass.
There is one more results update
scheduled for 4:30 p.m. Wednesday
afternoon.
Proponents of the three taxes said they
are necessary to funnel $13 million
annually into the general fund to stave
off deeper cuts to health and public safe-
ty. Opponents heavily funded by
Hertz and Enterprise rental car compa-
nies argued the taxes would dissuade
tourism and hurt business. The county
tried passing parking and car rental taxes
in 2008 but both failed.
The additional votes also increased
voter turnout although not by much.
With an extra roughly 12,000 ballots
included, turnout is 35.1 percent. A pres-
idential primary usually brings in about
56 percent, according to David Tom,
deputy assessor-county clerk-recorder.
The Elections Ofce will begin its 1
percent manual tally of the votes on
Friday, June 15. The tally conrms that
the election was properly conducted and
gives all involved, including citizens,
condence in the results, Chief Elections
Ofcer Mark Church said in a prepared
statement.
During the tally, precincts are chosen
randomly by throwing three 10-sided
dice and matching those three numbers
to a pre-determined number representing
a precinct. Elections ofcials, working
in teams of four, will manually read, call
out, record and tally the votes. The
process, which is open to the public,
should take three to four days and the
results nalized no later than July 3.
The tally will be held at the Elections
Ofce, 40 Tower Road, San Mateo. To
observe or participate call 312-5222.

faculty of Peninsula High School. As a
result of this relationship, students are
able to attend classes in a safe and sup-
portive environment, Telford wrote,
adding he hoped the experience will be
considered in the decision-making
process.
San Mateo police Sgt. David Norris
explained the police did not wish to
describe the school as having major
gang issues. Instead, the report was
meant to highlight possible problems
that could occur if the relocation were to
move forward. The hope, Norris said, is
that Peninsula is placed in an environ-
ment at which the students can be suc-
cessful. Placing students on a site where
that currently wasnt possible, he said,
may not be the best option.
One thing to note is that the police
chiefs offered some differing numbers
but the statistics also came from differ-
ent places.
As many as 39 percent of Peninsula
students have documented criminal
behavior and another 20 percent have
known street-gang affiliations,
Manheimer said at the special City
Council. Norris explained San Mateos
number came from working with police
ofcials and looking through records.
Telfords letter noted a smaller percent-
age of 12 percent of students stating hav-
ing been involved with criminal street
gangs, obtained from an anonymous
self-reporting survey conducted by the
school. Telford added the school had
only two gang-related calls in more than
two years.
Peninsula Principal Don Scatena
agreed with the numbers presented by
Telford. Scatena isnt sharing an opinion
on where the school should be located.
He simply wants Peninsula students to
have the best facility possible, compara-
ble to whats offered to other students in
the district.
Finding a new home for Peninsula has
been an ongoing conversation.
During a January study session about
Measure O, a $186 million bond meas-
ure passed in November 2010, the board
agreed a new facility for the continua-
tion school should be the next priority
for the money. Trustees told staff to
research all options placing the
school on land at Hillsdale or San Mateo
high schools, purchasing new land or
remodeling on the Crestmoor site in San
Bruno where the school is currently
located. Since then, Superintendent
Laurence has been meeting with local
groups explaining the pros and cons of
the various options before the board will
begin the conversation in the fall.
The possibility of moving the facility
to either San Mateo or Hillsdale high
school has spurred opposition at the
school, by law enforcement ofcials and
in the community including two
online petitions.
Another aspect to this conversation is
the Crestmoor High School site which
was previously deemed to be unused or
unneeded land for educational purposes
if Peninsula was relocated. The decision
opens up the option to sell the property,
a move San Bruno residents have widely
criticized. With a bad real estate market,
the board has put off making decisions
for a while since its not the best time to
sell property.
The board is expected to take on the
topic in the fall.

TUESDAY, JUNE 12, 2012
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- It behooves you to try to
reduce your expenses when it comes to nonessential
interests. If you really mean business, you wont make
any purchases or commitments that you cant afford.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Be able to determine
the difference between aggressiveness and as-
sertiveness. Attempting to bulldoze your way through
situations that affect your career will only make
matters worse.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Dont be so quick to believe
everything that you hear. Information that comes to
you from questionable sources could be distorted or
biased, or both.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- If you hope to proft in
some manner at the expense of another, you had
better examine your motives and have one heck of
a good reason. Operating along the wrong lines will
derail you.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- When in a partnership
arrangement, have a clear-cut understanding in
advance as to who is responsible for what. Without
any ground rules, the venture could veer off course,
leaving everyone in the woods.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Fail to approach your
work in a positive manner and youll make what
you have to do much more diffcult then it actually
is. Make sure that every detail is covered, but smile
while doing so.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- If you knowingly
go against the odds, dont be surprised if you have
to pay the consequences. Lady Luck isnt likely to be
around when you need her the most.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Let sleeping dogs
lie and dont bring up any old, unresolved domestic
issues when everyone is trying to relax. It could open
Pandoras box.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Even if you think
the criticism youre offering is very constructive, the
recipient of your remarks might feel differently, and
deeply resent your input. Judge not, lest ye be judged.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Financial conditions
are likely to be a mixed bag for you at this juncture.
On one hand, your earnings look promising, but on
the other hand, your extravagances may go com-
pletely unchecked.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- There is likely to be far
too much outside interference for you to do your job
as smoothly as you like. Throwing a ft wont solve a
thing, but it can make matters worse.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- If you allow yourself to
be infuenced by past events, it could put a damper
on fresh developments. Obsessing over yesterdays
only inhibits new successes.
