Two new schools for San Carlos?


District now considering elementary schools on middle school campuses
By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Balancing growing enrollment with a desire to offer new programs districtwide has led San Carlos ofcials to consider changing the grade conguration and opening two new schools. Last year, San Carlos Elementary School

District ofcials said they must add capacity because of the growing number of children at all of its schools. On Thursday, the board discussed drawings of a possible solution: Building a new elementary school on each of the middle school sites. Such schools wouldnt be traditional but could support fourth and fth grade students. Doing so would lower the number of students at each site while offering an equal opportunity for all district students.

After the idea was introduced Thursday evening, trustees had many questions but were open to learning more. Superintendent Craig Baker explained the idea originally was to build a new elementary school at Central Middle School. Those in the community then asked how such a plan would benet their child. Putting schools at each middle school, Baker explained, would allow the district to keep current boundaries, lower

the student enrollment at all existing schools and create an academic program specically for fourth and fth grade students. Trustee Beth Hunkapiller had questions. A school serving only fourth and fth grade students was previously the rst to be vetoed when the district looked at reconguration, she said. Hunkapiller was also wary about

Many county races uncontested


By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Police reports
Ready and waiting
A vehicle was stolen after it was left running with the keys in the ignition on Poplar Avenue in Redwood City before 12:34 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 7.

While all eyes have been on who next is running in the District Four supervisorial race a total of eight by final count a number of other county candidates have been quietly preparing for their own re-election campaigns. Two other county supervisors and nearly a dozen Superior Court judges in San Mateo County are up for re-election in June and none are facing challengers. The lack of a contested race is not surprising; incumbent supervisors rarely get competition and judges even less so. The fierce interest in the District Four position being vacated by termed-out Supervisor Rose Jacobs Gibson is undoubtedly due to it being an open seat. Regardless, some of those other candidates say, despite a lack of competition, they are no less committed to convincing the electorate they remain the right people for the job. Its nice not to have opposition but at the same time Im working as hard as possible to get re-elected, said Adrienne Tissier, who is running for her third term on the Board of Supervisors. She joined in 2005, taking over the seat left by termed-out supervisor Mike Nevin, and has never faced a challenger. Her fifth district includes Daly City, Brisbane, Colma, Broadmoor Village and parts of South San Francisco west of El Camino Real. She is currently board president. Tissier held a campaign kickoff event last November then watched as the focus turned to the race for colleague Jacobs Gibbons seat. Even without the need for a large-scale

campaign, Tissier said she believes an elected official always has to be accountable to the electorate. Another term will give her almost 20 years in public office which, she said, seems to draw more contact from the community than her run for re-election. Another term keeps her in touch with her constituents and, she said, I feel like I can always do more. Supervisor Dave Pine joined the board last May in a special election to finish out the term of then-supervisor Mark Church. Church resigned mid-term after winning the elected role of chief elections officer and assessor-county clerk-recorder. Pines race was crowded, with six competing in an allmail ballot to represent the district encompassing San Mateo Highlands and the Baywood Park neighborhood, Burlingame, Burlingame Hills, Hillsborough, Millbrae, San Bruno, South San Francisco east of El Camino Real and the San Francisco Airport. That race just seems like yesterday, said Pine. Like Tissier, Pine said the lack of a contested race doesnt make him any less accountable to the public although admittedly he neednt launch the campaign of last spring. In my opinion, that was about as tough as it gets. There were numerous strong and active candidates so I think that was the equivalent of a couple campaigns, he joked. Pine said a new full term is another chance to continue his priorities fiscally responsible government, alternative approaches to criminal justice and supporting youth. He said he also really likes the work. Im just thrilled to have this job. Im for-

tunate to go to work every day and get the chance to do my best and contribute, he said. In the courthouse, judges seeking re-election are Donald J. Ayoob, Gerald J. Buchwald, Clifford V. Cretan, Leland Davis III, Susan Etezadi, Robert Foiles, Jack Grandsaert, Stephen M. Hall, Elizabeth Lee, Lisa Novak and V. Raymond Swope. The county also needs to fill a vacancy created by the resignation of Controller Tom Huening at the end of March. However, the board forfeited the chance to hold a June election by delaying a decision on whether to appoint or ask voters. They are expected to decide at Tuesdays meeting and with several leaning toward a public appointment process it looks likely that means it will be employed by the April deadline. Aside from elected leaders, county voters will also be asked to weigh in on three tax measures aimed at hotels, rental cars and parking. The transient occupancy tax would jump from 10 percent to 12 percent, generating an extra $200,000 annually. An 8 percent business license tax on parking facilities would draw in about $4.9 million and a 2.5 percent tax on the vehicle rental businesses is estimated to bring in about $7.75 million. In 2008, the county asked voters to pass taxes on rental cars and parking but both failed with just more than 52 percent of voters opposed. After the election, county supervisors blamed a lack of active campaigning.

Man in court for allegedly raping girlfriends sister


DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT

Video allowed in S.F. sheriffs trial


SAN FRANCISCO An emotional video involving the wife of San Franciscos sheriff can be used as evidence during his trial on domestic violence charges, a threejudge panel ruled Friday. Ross Mirkarimi, 50, has pleaded not guilty to misdemeanor domestic violence battery, child endangerment and dissuading a witness for allegedly grabbing his wife, Venezuelan actress Eliana Lopez, in front of their toddler son in their San Francisco home on New Years Eve. The couple has denied the incident. Mirkarimi could face up to a year in jail, if convicted. The decision by the San Francisco Superior Court appellate division panel means a jury can see the video in which Lopez, 36, tearfully describes the alleged incident and a bruise on her right bicep. Its also is a victory for prosecutors who have Ross Mirkarimi argued that the video is a key piece of evidence in their case against Mirkarimi. We are pleased with the courts ruling and look forward to moving ahead with the trial, said Stephanie Ong Stillman, a spokeswoman for District Attorney George Gascon. Lopezs lawyer, Paula Canny, argued that the video made by Ivory Madison, Lopezs neighbor and who she thought was a lawyer, should be withdrawn because it was made under the assumption of attorney-client privilege. Madison graduated from law school, but is not a licensed attorney. Im very disappointed, Canny said. I have to talk to my client and weigh what our options are. Canny said she likely will le a request for review with the state Court of Appeals. Her appeal on behalf of Lopez, a former telenovela star, came after Judge Garrett Wong ruled last week that those privilege rights did not apply because the evidence is not being used against Lopez. Mirkarimis attorney, Lidia Stiglich, filed a separate motion regarding the video, arguing its inadmissibility should Lopez decide not to testify during the trial because she cant cross-examine the allegations from the video.

The South San Francisco mechanic accused of raping his girlfriends half-sister for eight years and acting inappropriately with another half-sister and neighbor appeared in court Friday on several felony charges that could send him to prison for life. Kyle Clifton Vogt, 36, is charged with 11 counts including rape, continuous sexual abuse of a child, sending harmful sexual matter to a minor, six counts of lewd acts with a minor under 14 and two counts of lewd acts with a minor over 14 by someone more than 10 years older. He remains in custody without bail. South San Francisco police arrested Vogt a week ago after reportedly learning he had been carrying on a sexual relationship with his girlfriends half-sister starting when the victim was just 5. The girl told her mom what was going on when she turned 13, according to prosecutors. After being taken into custody, Vogt was also accused of molesting one of the girlfriends other half-sisters between 2000 and 2012 along with a neighbor girl who was the rst

victims friend. Those acts included sending inappropriate texts, kissing and groping, said Chief Deputy District Attorney Karen Guidotti. Guidotti wasKyle Vogt nt certain if the behavior extended to both girls. Vogt threatened some of girls with bodily harm to keep them from talking, police said. He split his time between homes in South San Francisco and Davis where he lived with his 30-year-old girlfriend. Her younger sisters often visited the couple and periodically lived with them in both cities, according to South San Francisco police. He has no prior criminal history in San Mateo County, according to court records. Police are still seeking the publics help in nding any additional potential victims. Anyone with information regarding the case is asked to call (650) 877-8910.

A man was fatally struck by a Caltrain in Menlo Park Friday morning, an agency spokeswoman said. The man was struck by a northbound train at about 9:30 a.m. on the train tracks at Ravenswood Avenue, Caltrain spokeswoman Tasha Bartholomew said. The man was identied by the San Mateo County Coroners Ofce as Eric Salvatierra, 39, of Palo Alto. The death prompted trains to use a single set of tracks through the area, causing delays of 30 to 40 minutes. All tracks reopened and trains were back on schedule as of 11:50 a.m., Bartholomew said. The incident is Caltrains fourth fatality of 2012. There were 16 fatalities on its right of way last year. The agency released a statement about this mornings death. It is always regrettable when a life is lost. Caltrain reminds everyone to be safe around train tracks.

An investment in football
Reaching CSM football players by Writing in the End Zone
By Caitlin Alyce Buckley
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT

Four English instructors and the football coaches at the College of San Mateo have invested in studentathletes through a unique program called Writing in the End Zone that links composition and the gridiron. Writing in the End Zone was initiated in 2003 to facilitate success of the lowest achieving students at CSM. African-Americans and Pacic Islanders were the lowest achieving students, according to a study conducted by John Sewart, dean of research. The groups were well represented on the football team, so Teeka James and James Carranza of the English Department developed the two-semester English curriculum that links composition and football. It seems like common sense, said Football Coach Bret Pollack. Its specic to football players. The key is taking the material and making it of interest to the students. Lets focus on the skills, something theyre interested in, something they have a passion for and something they will gravitate to. The skills are more important than the topic matter. Success rates of WEZ studentathletes rival success rates of the general student population and WEZ student-athletes substantially outperform their peers not participating in WEZ. The program is driven by investment in the players success by faculty and coaches. The objective of

Teacher Jon Kitamura with members of the College of San Mateo football team.
the program is to aid the transition from athlete-student to student-athlete by encouraging students to recognize that they belong in college, giving them a voice in the classroom and developing students pride in their work. I want you to succeed and heres how you do it, James tells students. They start seeing us not so much as the evaluators, but as the coaches. The viability of the program depends on collaboration of the students, faculty and coaches, said Carranza. Attempts to emulate the program at other colleges have failed because not all three spheres of influence were included, he added. Since 2003, the WEZ team has grown from James, Carranza and Pollack to include English faculty Jon Kitamura and Anne Stafford, occasionally Rob Komas from the math department and Assistant Football Coach Tim Tulloch. In the 2009-10 academic year, 26 of the 30 football student-athletes transferred to a four-year institution with scholarships, according to program data. School hasnt always been easy, said Rahsaan Vaughn, All-American wide-receiver, but the academic support I received at CSM helped me to develop the skills needed to earn my degree and move on to University of Oregon.

Even more reliable are so-called longacting types, those IUDs or implants that can last years but can cost $600 to nearly $1,000 for the doctor to insert. Thats if you dont have insurance that covers at least some of the tab although many women do. And if those prices are too much, crowded public clinics offer free or reduced-price options. But it might take a while to get an appointment. Questions about cost and access to birth control have been swirling for weeks now, intensifying after a Georgetown University law school student testified before congressional Democrats in support of a new federal policy to pay for contraception that she said can add up to $1,000 a year, not covered by the Jesuit colleges health plan. Talk show host Rush Limbaughs verbal assault on her comments became the latest skirmish in the birth control wars. Soon, the new policy will make contraceptives available free of charge as preventive care, just like mammograms, for women with most employer-provided health insurance. Churches are exempt. But for other religious-afliated organizations, such as colleges or hospitals, their insurance companies would have to pay for the coverage, something that has triggered bitter political debate.

Corrections firm offers states cash for prisons


By Greg Bluestein

WASHINGTON Birth control that you must take every single day? A more goof-proof option that costs a lot upfront but then works for several years? Or something in between? A womans choice may come down to her wallet: The price of birth control varies dramatically. Just the pill has a huge range, from $9 a month for generics to $90 a month for some of the newest brands, plus a yearly doctors visit for the prescription. Want a once-a-month option? The patch or ring could run you $55 monthly.

FDA clears third silicone-gel breast implant for U.S.


By Matthew Perrone
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The Food and Drug Administration has approved a new silicone-gel breast implant from Sientra, making it the third company to

market the controversial products in the U.S. Santa Barbara -based Sientra won approval to market its implants for breast enhancement and reconstruction in women at least 22 years old. The company said it will offer implants in multiple shapes and sizes, in addition to the

round implants currently sold by Allergan Inc. and Johnson & Johnsons Mentor unit. Last year, plastic surgeons performed more than 307,000 breast augmentation procedures in the U.S., up 3.6 percent from the previous year, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.

ATLANTA The nations largest private prison company made an enticing offer to 48 states that went something like this: We will buy your prison now if you agree to keep it mostly full and promise to pay us for running it over the next two decades. Despite a need for cash, several states immediately slammed the door on the offer, a sign that privatizing prisons might not be as popular as it once was. Corrections Corporation of America sent letters to the prison leaders in January, saying it had a pot of $250 million to buy facilities as part of an investment. The company is trying to capitalize on the landmark deal it made with Ohio in the fall by purchasing a facility, the rst state prison in the nation to be sold to a private rm. Prison departments in California, Texas and Georgia all dismissed the idea. Floridas prison system said it doesnt have the authority to make that kind of decision and ofcials in CCAs home state of Tennessee said they arent reviewing the proposal. The states refused to say exactly why they were rejecting the offer. Knowing the state government, it has to have something to do with the potential political backlash, said Jeanne Stinchcomb, a criminal justice professor at Florida Atlantic University who has written two books on the corrections industry.

Obama: America is coming back


By Ken Thomas
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

HOUSTON Raising campaign cash in Republican territory, President Barack Obama on Friday hailed a rebounding economy and accused Republicans of banking on voters having amnesia about the steps that led to a brutal economic collapse. The recovery is accelerating. America is coming back, Obama told 600 supporters at a Texas fundraiser. Bidding for re-election, Obama bounded between a rally-style event in a sprawling Rolls-Royce manufacturing plant south of Richmond, Va., to a pair of Houston fundraisers. Framing the trip: a new monthly jobs report showing employers 227,000 jobs in February, the latest sign that the economy is headed in the right direction. Every months jobs report is seen as a barometer of the economy and an important factor in the presidential race. The unemployment rate held steady at 8.3 percent, the result

of more Americans looking for work as job growth takes hold month by month. The jobs report and split loyalties among Republican voters assessing Mitt Romney, Rick Santorum and the rest of Barack Obama the GOP field give Obamas team renewed condence that the path he has forged could help him win re-election and rebuild the economy. But privately, his advisers know that outside factors in the United States and abroad from high gasoline prices to instability in the Middle East could still derail his political and economic ambitions in the months leading to the fall election. Pointing at Republicans, Obama said: They think you have amnesia. They think youve forgotten how we got into this mess. He spoke at Union Station at Minute Maid Park, home of the Houston Astros, with tickets starting at $500 per person.

Defending his health care law, Obama said preventive care for women was now covered, including checkups, mammograms, birth control. We fought for this because the top doctors and medical experts in the country said this kind of preventive care saves womens lives, he said, arguing too that it saves money. Obamas policy on access to contraception has faced criticism from Republicans and religious groups, who said the mandate that birth control be covered by insurance, even for employers whose faiths forbid contraception, was a violation of the Constitutions guarantee of religious freedom. So when you see politicians who are trying to take us back to the days when this care was more expensive and harder to get for women and I know youre seeing some of that here in Texas you just remember we cant let them get away with it, Obama said. We fought for this change. Were going to protect this change. Both in Houston and on the factory oor in Virginia, the president cautioned that too

many Americans still long for work. But he said the nations economy had made progress because of difficult decisions he made, including rescuing U.S. automakers. Romney, campaigning in Jackson, Miss., took a different view: The unemployment rate remains above 8 percent. This president has not succeeded; this president has failed and thats the reason were going to get rid of him in 2012, Romney said. Obama was stocking up on campaign cash as Republicans appear locked in a primary process that may not be settled for months. Republican Gov. Robert McDonnell of Virginia, who joined Obama at the factory and has been talked about as a potential vice presidential candidate, said he was heartened by Obamas recognition of the innovative Virginia plant. When the president is right, Im going to commend him and say hes doing things right, he said. If he really wants to get Americans back to work, he needs to look at cutting the taxes and the bureaucracy and the regulatory burden on American business, McDonnell said.

California jobless rate dips Strong hiring adds 277K U.S.jobs to lowest level since 2009

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO Californias unemployment rate fell below 11 percent in January for the rst time in nearly three years, signaling a continued gradual improvement in the states economy, ofcials said Friday. The jobless rate of 10.9 percent is threetenths of a percentage point drop from Decembers adjusted rate of 11.2 percent, according to the state Employment Development Department. Californias unemployment rate has not

been below 11 percent since April 2009, when it also was 10.9 percent. January was the fth consecutive month in which the employment rate has dropped. It fell a full percentage point during that period. It looks like were going in the right direction, department spokesman Kevin Callori said. It just looks like, overall, things are looking better. Nonfarm payroll jobs decreased by 5,200 in January, while December job growth was revised upward, from 10,700 to a revised 38,500 based on additional payroll data from that period.

WASHINGTON The United States added 227,000 jobs in February, the latest display of the breadth and strength of the economic recovery. The country has put together the most impressive three months of job growth since before the Great Recession. The unemployment rate stayed at 8.3 percent. It was the rst time in six months it didnt fall, and that was because a half-million Americans started looking for work. In the past two months, almost a million have started looking. I have more optimism, said Freda Bratcher, 54, who had worked as a substance

abuse counselor but has been unemployed 16 months. She had stopped searching, but showed up Friday at a Miami career center after some of her friends landed jobs. Theres something out there for me, she said. And if other people are getting hired, then why not me? The Labor Department, in its monthly jobs report, said Friday that December and January, already two of the best months for jobs since the recession, were even stronger than rst estimated. January job growth was revised higher by 41,000 to 284,000. December job growth was raised by 20,000 to 223,000. The overall job growth for February of 227,000 beat economists estimate of 210,000.

A strong backhand slap from end of solar storm


WASHINGTON The solar storm that seemed to be more zzle than fury got much stronger early Friday before fading again. At its peak, it was the most potent solar storm since 2004, space weather forecasters said. No power outages or other technological disturbances were reported from the solar storm that started to peter out late Friday morning.

Around the nation


Solar storms, which cant hurt people, can disturb electric grids, GPS systems, and satellites. They can also spread colorful Northern Lights further south than usual, as the latest storm did early Friday. And more storms are coming. The federal governments Space Weather Prediction Center says the same area of the sun erupted again Thursday night, with a milder storm expected to reach Earth early Sunday.

OPINION

Weekend March 10-11, 2012

A silly debate
The Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle

Other voices
sional Democrats in favor of federally mandated birth control insurance. But the apology wasnt accepted, and Democrats now have another tool with which to divide the electorate and defeat Republicans in the fall. Democrats are winning this war of words over birth control, over Limbaughs intemperance in two ways. First, theyre making Republicans look like the Taliban. Somehow, Democrats and the left-leaning media have made this issue about womens health and access to birth control. The truth, of course, is there is no problem

heres a certain rich irony in the fact that ProFlowers pulled its advertising from Rush Limbaughs show after he called a birth control proponent a slut and prostitute. Sending owers was the least he needed to do. But neither his patently offensive remarks, nor their potential impact on the election, are laughing matters. Limbaugh has since apologized unlike his even-worse liberal counterparts for his gratuitous insult of Georgetown University student Sandra Fluke, who testied before congres-

with access to birth control. The only question is who should pay for it well, that, and whether health insurance providers should be forced by the government to offer it over their own moral objections. Democrats also win in this silly debate by changing the subject from the economy, the presidents dismal record, foreign policy storm clouds on the horizon, the national debt and more. Republicans have helped them do it, too from presidential Rick Santorums getting sucked into the discussion repeatedly, to Limbaughs disgusting rant. The latters ame-throwing has most people missing the point. Which, as has been pointed out, is just peachy with Democrats.

Limbaughs words and the 2012 presidential election


his is not about what Rush Limbaugh actually said in his three-day/nine-hour comments on his radio show about Susan Fluke, the 30-year-old, second-year law school student at Georgetown University. Those have been explored beyond boredom by the voracious appetite of media for trash to ll their empty pages and the 24 hours a day on radio and television. In fact, its not even about the actual political/social issue he was commenting upon in the show. Its about how I surmise Rushs verbal attack will play out in the upcoming 2012 elections. At this time, I believe they will be fatal to Republican Party hopes. Why? Because intended or not, Rush is looked upon as the voice of the entire Republican Party. This has been to the great dismay of such conservatives as the highly respected columnist George Will, who points out the truth that members of the party still fear Rush and run to apologize if they have criticized him or taken issue with his political positions. First, I would like to say, I believe this entire tempest will have little impact upon the survival of Rushs show. Why? Because its a huge moneymaker for Rush and the network upon which he broadcasts and they will be able to recruit conservative advertisers to ll any losses. I have learned in our economic system it is not always social values but almost always the bottom line that moves most business ventures. Outrage, advertiser withdrawals and boycotts will soon fade away and a chastened Limbaugh will move on still spinning his version of the liberal assault upon his humor-intended words. Back in Chicago in the 1960s, when I was an interior designer, there was a radio disc jockey host named Marty Faye brother to the then famous cabaret singer/comedienne Frances Faye who became one of my clients. He was one of the rst of the shock jock radio hosts in the country. Yet, as a client, he proved to be one of the most likable, friendly, politest people Id ever met. When I knew him well enough I asked about his insulting aggressive style on his program. You all knew about my sister Frances before, right? Ive been doing shows in Chicago since 1952. Had you ever heard about me before I pulled the chains on guests on my show? And, so, that was his contribution the birth of radio and television trash talk, protected by the grant of free speech in the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. Right on, Marty! You were one of the rst to learn of the success in media ratings from potty mouth to outright verbal slander. In the early years of the Michael Savage talk show, I was naively appalled at what he called women and the vicious insults he rained down upon phone-in callers to his show. Since ABC, one of the three most respected networks in the nation, owned the station, I complained to the station manager. He responded Sir! Have you seen our ratings since Savage came on for us? We are now the most highly rated and profitable in the Bay Area. And Rush has become the master of that genre, enhanced beyond the 15 million listeners he claims, by other media frequently picking up text and visuals to expand the reach of his most outlandish comments. But there are consequences, however, when you push the limits of the First Amendment, maybe not in violation but in public outrage at the words, themselves. As Ive written before, Ive come to believe its rare that any media pundit of any political persuasion in print, radio, television or Internet actually changes the minds of more than a handful of voters, including my column. Most, as Rush rightly calls them dittoheads, nd ways to accept, forgive and to spin even the most outlandish and vulgar words of their favorite pundits. However, I believe this election will be the exception, because there will be, mostly likely, in addition to the normal sized pool of voters, women 30 and under, single, single mothers or married, greater than turned out for Obama in 2008. According to political scientists and political observers, these had not, yet, seen their physical health and private bodies so badly threatened before in the political arena. Thats why I am calling the failure for the Republican Party to regain the White House so early. Along with the cannibalizing of each other in primary debates, only a handful of major Republican gures have publicly denounced Limbaughs words. The others in the GOP will be looked upon as endorsing them. This could become a critical major issue with those agitated women voters who are sure to ask, Did you approve or disapprove of Limbaughs nine-hour verbal assault upon Ms. Fluke?

Letters to the editor


Response to Hell hath no fury like women voters scorned
Editor, Hell hath no fury like women voters scorned published in the Feb. 25-26 weekend edition of the Daily Journal was another insightful column by Keith Kreitman. I appreciated it so much that I shared it on my Facebook page. I urge every woman out there to follow the news and actively engage politically. Otherwise, we might wake up one morning and nd ourselves governed by homegrown Right Wing Christian Ayatollahs. I wish that were true. As a Holocaust survivor, I lived through a tragic period of history where I learned that we need to listen carefully to despotic dictators, such as Hitler and Stalin. They believe and mean what they say, and we risk our lives by ignoring serious and deadly threats. President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has announced the possible closing to navigation of the Strait of Hormuz, an international waterway and has threatened the American military. Arab countries in the region feel threatened by Iran. Ahmadinejad has talked about the annihilation of Israel. It is the home of many Holocaust survivors and people who are related to the millions of innocent people who died during World War II. Israel takes this threat very seriously as it is an existentialist threat to them and also to us. Scafanis assertion that we need not fear the current leadership of Iran, even with nuclear weapons, is wishful and optimistic thinking but it is not sound. He is asking us to risk death of millions of people in the future and the nuclear poisoning of our planet. Nuclear weapons in the hands of a mad man will lead to world tragedy. Iran into committing some reckless act that would justify a massive military response. Far cheaper in lives and treasure for all concerned, I might add. Israels continued expansion of settlements is only placing it in the category of being tomorrows Mississippi rather than todays democracy.

Mike Caggiano San Mateo

Perspective or misrepresentation
Editor, The writer of Perspective on overpopulation in the Feb. 27 edition of the Daily Journal illustrates how difcult it is to carry on a meaningful dialogue with someone dead set on twisting around the facts and misrepresenting the issue(s) at hand. If you can turn a discussion about the need for access to health care for women (including family planning) into advocating abortion and putting all people on earth into Texas (including sick and starving children from around the world), Im at a loss for a response that may get through this letter writers logic barrier. I dont teach remedial math anymore, so Ill leave it to the obviously mathematically challenged letter writer to gure out his mistake. Even if you cover all lakes and rivers, atten all mountains and turn all agricultural areas, forests and pastures into livable land, his calculation isnt even close. So, back to your calculator and try again. Nevermind the nonsense of concentrating the world population in Texas, which already has a problem with inadequate social services and poorly educated leaders. Where this writer got his well-known facts from, I dont know. Perhaps from the same source from which Bush got his weapons of mass destruction facts.

Natalie Roth San Mateo

Iran is a threat
Editor, In regards to Frank Scafanis letter, Threat? in the March 2 edition of the Daily Journal, yes, Iran is a threat. Anybody who is listening or reading knows that Iran has called Israel a cancer, that must be wiped off the map. To wait for Iran to upgrade plutonium from 20 percent to 90 percent (weapons grade) is not a long process according to experts. So, to idly sit by and say or do nothing is out of the question. Israel wants to continue to exist rather than await a nuclear attack and the sympathy that would follow (those poor Israelis, isnt it a shame?)

Ralph Bernstein Los Altos

Tomorrows Mississippi
Editor, War with Iran is in the news every day lately. Now Mr. Netanyahu is visiting Washington to press his case for that war. If Israel and its supporters want a safer and less volatile region, they might as well abandon their push for a Greater Israel, withdraw from the settlements and respect the Palestinian nature of East Jerusalem. This would really get the ball rolling on normalization of relations with the Arab World as well as Iran, depriving it of its rallying call as advocate for the rights and cause of Palestinians. This is far more simple and direct than goading

Saul Eisenstat Los Altos

Take nuclear threat seriously


Editor, In his letter to the editor, Threat? in the March 2 edition of the Daily Journal, Frank Scafani asserts that the world has nothing to fear from Irans nuclear program.

Stocks rise modestly


By Daniel Wagner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Wall Street
The mornings gains were driven by news that employers added 227,000 jobs last month, nishing three of the best months for hiring since the recession began. The unemployment rate was unchanged at 8.3 percent because unemployed people started looking for work again, which increased the size of the labor force. The hiring was spread across a range of industries, including business and professional services, leisure and hospitality and health care. Later Friday, the International Swaps and Derivatives Association said it had determined that a massive bond-swap by Greece constituted a credit event, meaning that holders of credit-default swaps on their Greek bonds will be able to claim insurance payments. Traders sold stocks on the news, fearing big losses for banks that had sold the insurance. Greece convinced most of its private creditors to swap their bonds for new ones worth far less. The deal clears the way for a fresh bailout from Greeces neighbors. Fears of a disorderly Greek default have weighed on the market for two years.

Homeownership can translate into savings

Other tax benets


Renancing costs Homeowners who renanced their mortgage in 2011,and paid points or a fee based on the loan amount, may qualify for a deduction. However, unlike points paid on a new mortgage, those paid on a refinancing must be written off over the life of the loan. Each point is generally equal to 1 percent of the loan. Say for instance, you paid 2 points on a $150,000, 30-year loan, or $3,000. You may claim $100 of that fee each year you own the home. Mor tgage workouts and foreclosures When a lender forgives debt, the amount forgiven is usually considered taxable income. However, under a law passed in late 2007, taxpayers whose mortgage debt on their main residence was partly forgiven through a mortgage workout are generally able to exclude the forgiven debt from their income. The same goes for those who lost their homes through foreclosure and had some part of their debt written off because they owed more on the home than its market value. In certain cases, however, some cancelled debt may be considered taxable income. This can be a complex situation and its best to get professional advice.Guidelines are available on the Internal Revenue Service website, http://1.usa.gov/pv8sN . Taxpayers who lost money on a foreclosure generally may not claim a loss on their returns. Energy-efcient home improvements This will be the last year that homeowners may claim credits for installing energy-efcient exterior windows and doors, heat pumps, furnaces and insulation under a law that expired on Dec. 31. Up to 10 percent of the price of the improvements may be claimed, said Jay Safier, a certified public accountant and principal with Rosen Seymour Shapss Martin & Co. in New York.There is a lifetime limit of $500, of which only $200 may be used for windows. Homeowners who installed alternative energy equipment like solar water heaters,solar panels for electricity generation and certain wind or geothermal projects may receive a credit of up to 30 percent of the cost for the installation. There is no cap on this credit.Saer said you may include labor costs when guring this credit. Anyone who replaced an old household appliance like a dishwasher or refrigerator with a new energy-efcient unit may also be able to claim a small credit.The credits range from $25 to $225, and are based on the type of appliance and its energy efciency. Medical-related expenses A taxpayer or dependent who has a medical condition that requires renovation to a home may be able to claim the cost of that work as a medical expense. Medical expenses are only deductible to the extent they total more than 7.5 percent of adjusted gross income, which is a high hurdle. But if you installed a ramp, widened doorways or did other work such as, lowering countertops to accommodate a wheelchair, it may be far easier to reach that threshold. Thats because such work generally counts as a medical expense, and may be added to more traditional costs like doctor bills and prescriptions. One issue to watch out for, noted Jackie Perlman from the H&R Block Tax Institute, is that some improvements may add value to your home.A doctor may advise a disabled person to use a hot tub or swimming pool,for instance.The amount that could be claimed in such a case would be limited to the difference between the cost of the item and the value added to the home, she said. For instance, only $2,000 of a $7,000 hot tub installation that adds $5,000 to market value would qualify.

NEW YORK Mortgage interest is just the beginning. Owning a home can provide some significant advantages when its time to file your federal tax return. From green energy credits to deductions for damage from natural disasters, there are a number of items homeowners may be able to claim that could reduce a tax bill. Most homeowners know that they can deduct the interest paid on up to $1 million in mortgage debt for their primary home. The interest paid on up to $100,000 of a home equity loan for the same home may also be itemized. In most cases, its possible to deduct all of your mortgage interest, so long as you itemize your deductions. That opens up opportunities for other savings. For instance, local property taxes may also be itemized. Although property tax rates vary widely across the country, this item alone can be a big win for homeowners in areas with heavy tax burdens.

Market may be up,but the scars of 2008 are fresh


By Dave Carpenter

CHICAGO Cheryl and Jim Friedman, retirees in St. Louis, had twothirds of their retirement money in the stock market in 2008. When the nancial crisis struck that fall and stocks lurched up and down with nauseating speed, Cheryl, a former accountant, pulled the money out. Fearing that the next crisis was always around the corner, they have kept most of the money out. Its parked in a money-market account earning a meager 0.1 percent per year. The Friedmans watched in agony as stock prices doubled over the past three years. I have a whole lot of money sitting on the sidelines, because Im afraid, she says. The little guy is thinking, `Well, things are good again now, Ill get back in. And thats when they pull the rug out from under you. Three years ago Friday, the Dow Jones industrial average closed at 6,547,

its low during the Great Recession. Retirement accounts across the country had been devastated since October 2007, when the Dow hit a record of 14,164. Last week, the Dow closed above 13,000, although it has fallen back slightly. It has been one of the greatest three-year runs in the history of the stock market, exceeded only by the dotcom stock craze of the late 1990s and the recovery from the Depression. Some people gritted their teeth through the steep losses and poured more money into stocks while the market was still in free fall. That daring paid off in the returns of a lifetime. I felt that either the worlds going to end or its the smartest time ever to invest, recalls Harvey Bookman, 60, of Brooklyn, N.Y., who has made up his initial market losses many times over by buying when stock prices were low. Bookman bought shares of Avis stock for 41 cents apiece on March 4, 2009, ve days before the bottom. He sold

them in September 2009 for $11.92 apiece. Total prot, minus commission: $46,026. For many more, however, even a doubling of the market has not been enough to get them back in. The scars of the 2008 crash, when the Dow lurched up or down by 500 points or more in a day and people asked aloud whether the economy itself would survive, are that deep. Since the March 2009 low, there have been only two months in which individual investors put more money into stock mutual funds than they took out, according to EPFR Global, which tracks funds. The fuel for the markets ride higher since 2009 has come from big institutional investors instead. For small investors, there have been more than enough reasons to sit out. After the 2008 crash, there was the ash crash of May 6, 2010, when a large trade overwhelmed computer serves and the Dow plunged to a loss of almost 1,000 points in minutes.

Quakes add firepower for 2012 season


By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Stop us if youve heard this one before: as the San Jose Earthquakes embark on another MLS season, the biggest question mark going into the year is the offense. Yes sir, if you go back through the Daily Journal archives, youll see that is the exactly what was said about the Quakes heading into the 2011 season. And while some things are more common sense than prophetic, the prediction turned out to be true as the Quakes limped through the year scoring 40 goals

only three teams in MLS scored less. San Jose nished seventh in the Western Conference and missed out on the playoffs a year after making it to the seminals. Perhaps it wasnt for a lack of effort and more like bad luck. San Jose did get 151 shots on goal in 2011 (good for fth in the league) and despite placing 14th overall in MLS, there were a lot of highlights to the year mostly, Chris Wondolowskis encore performance to the 2010 campaign that almost won him an MVP, and the seven straight home sellouts to end the year. But guess what? The Quakes are back to 00-0, with the season opener Saturday night at

Buck Shaw Stadium in Santa Clara against the New England Revolution. And while on paper San Jose appears to have made signicant strides in improving and trying to keep up with the rest of the Western Conference, the truth is they wont know just how good they can be until the ball gets rolling. One thing that if for certain is that San Jose is Wondolowskis team. And with the way No. 8 played in 2011, thats a good thing. Wondolowski followed his Golden Boot performance of 2010 with a 16-goal year in 2011. He was also third on the team in assists and that came with Wondolowski missing some time serving a stint with the United

States Mens National Team. With Wondolowski as the teams biggest proven commodity, general manager John Doyle went to work putting some pieces around his goal-scorer. San Jose brass went the international route, signing Tressor Moreno, a midelder from Columbia. Moreno is 33, but a proven offensive player through his years of international football. Hes expected to start right out of the gate. Hell be flanked by another off-season acquisition in Marvin Chavez, who comes to

Wild ending to rivalry game


Benches clear after Peluso is hit by pitch
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

With things already ugly on the scoreboard between the South City and El Camino baseball teams Friday afternoon, it spilled over onto the eld with a benches-clearing brawl, which ended the game in the bottom of the fth with two outs and El Camino leading 152. El Camino had already plated six runs in the inning and Colts catcher DJ Peluso represented the 11th batter of the inning. On the rst pitch, Peluso was plunked in the middle of the back. As Peluso headed to rst, El Camino manager Carlos Roman began yelling, which

drew a response from South City manager Daryl Semien. Both managers came onto the eld and had to be separated by the home plate umpire. A couple of players from both teams entered the fray, which then brought both teams off their benches to engage in a melee of pushing and shoving. When order was finally restored, the umpires called the game. I think it was intentional. I didnt at rst, Peluso said. I was walking to rst. It was just part of the game. Roman was still a bit red up several minutes after the fracas.

Tom looks to make good on potential


By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

With a skip of her feet, Maddie Toms heart skipped a beat. Tom, a gymnast at Peninsula Gymnastics in San Mateo, gets a little on the shy side when talking about the ankle injury that sidelined her last year just days before she was due to compete the states regional competition. So, to spare her a bit of the redness that comes with talking about freakish accidents that only happen to you once in a blue moon, well say that, more so than her leg, Toms heart was broken. At rst, I thought it was only one of those (injuries) where it hurts for like, ve minutes, Tom said. But then it was all swollen up and I was really worried. It was the last practice before Regionals, too. And then she sighs. It was a shock for me, said Toms gymnastics coach George Isuan, whos been at Peninsula for

three years. It was a shock for everyone. But I think shes very brave to ght through all her injuries and come back. Tom suffered what she called a broken growth plate. The injury forced her into a splint for a week, a cast for a month and then a boot for another two weeks. Still, the dream to get to the state competition never died for the Carlmont High School sophomore. We never gave up the hope that she would be back, Iusan said. Even with the casts, she was in the gym everyday working out, keeping up with the other girls, conditioning, she was always here, her heart and her mind were in the gym. Toms recovery has been slow and steady, and despite the occasional pain, almost a year later, she nds herself in a position to get back to the national level as Peninsulas lone Level 10 gymnast. I think Im stronger because of it, Tom said. I was really nervous

coming back from it because this year, its the most important year for colleges to look at you. So I was really nervous to get back to my full Maddie Tom strength. Toms skill will be on display Saturday and during Peninsula Sunday Gymnastics Pot of Gold meet. The two-day event will showcase gymnasts from all over the Bay Area, including Moraga, San Rafael, Emeryville and San Jose. The main thing is to promote the sport of gymnastics in our local area, said Peninsula program director Courtney Tate. Tate said the gym is expecting 250 athletes over the weekend, with gymnasts competing throughout every level particular emphasis will be put on the Xcel Program.

Its the largest in California, Tate said. We have over 60 kids. Its something that is new to the West Coast. (Basically), the kids dont have to train as many hours as they would at the junior Olympic program, but they can still compete they make up their own music, they own routines. This meet has a lot of Xcel kids coming. Pot of Gold will be a fun-lled event for all, and its been a busy time for Tate and the rest of Peninsula Gymnastics. Because of the success of last years Pot of Gold, attendance for the 2012 version doubled. I havent slept in like, three or four days probably, Tate said, jokingly. The event is unique in that it offers a fth rotation athletes compete in four gymnastics disciplines, then participate in games, arts and crafts and socially with other gymnasts. Those at Peninsula to have fun can, and those in the Optional level (Level 7-10) will have the

opportunity to post a qualifying score for Regionals and Nationals which happens in three weeks gymnasts like Tom. I remember when she started, running around with pig tails in the gym, Tate said of Tom. Shes denitely one of those focused, head-on, strong kids. There was a time when she would come in the morning, an hour and a half before school, work out and then go to school and then come back and work out. Shes a strong kid. She wants to do gymnastics. Shes very physically talented but her dedication to the sport is what has pushed her to go as far as she has. I think she is very disciplined, Iusan said of Tom. Shes an intelligent girl. Working with her is a pleasure. For Tom, a qualifying score vaults her into state competitions this year a place shes long wanted to compete. And shell skip all the way there.

Posey, Sanchez return as Giants beat Reds Giants agree on deals with 19 players
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. Matt Cain walked in from the bullpen and heard the roar of the San Francisco Giants fans at Scottsdale Stadium. I thought everybody really loved me, Cain said, and then I looked behind me and saw Buster. The return of Buster Posey was the story of the day for the Giants in Fridays 6-3 Cactus League victory over a Reds split-squad, with Freddy Sanchezs return a close second. Posey and Sanchez, both key cogs in the Giants championship run in 2010, missed most of 2011 with injuries. Posey tore ligaments in his left ankle in a home-plate collision on May 25, and Sanchez dislocated his shoulder June 10. Neither had played in a game until Friday. Posey caught two innings and hit a yout in his only trip to the plate, while Sanchez was 1 for 4. It was fun, Posey said. Ive put in a lot of work. Even though it was

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. The San Francisco Giants agreed to terms Friday on 2012 contracts with catcher Buster Posey, left-handed starter Madison Bumgarner and 17 others. Bobby Evans, Giants vice president of baseball operations, said the players agreed on one-year, nonguaranteed major league contracts. Others in the group with zero to three years service time are reliever only two innings, it was nice to be out there. Posey admitted to some anxiety before the game, but he felt better after passing the few tests the game provided. He had to drop to his knees to block a few balls, which he did awlessly. He had to pop out of his crouch to throw to second on

Dan Runzler, shortstop Brandon Crawford, catchers Hector Sanchez and Chris Stewart, pitcher Eric Surkamp, and first basemen Brandon Belt and Brett Pill. Posey is returning from a seasonending leg injury from a home-plate collision on May 25 with the Marlins Scott Cousins. He played in his rst Cactus League game Friday. The 22-year-old Bumgarner went 13-13 with a 3.21 ERA in 204 2-3 innings last year in his rst full seaMiguel Cairos steal attempt. Cairo was safe, but Posey said he was satised with the throw. It was good to see Buster back out there playing again, manager Bruce Bochy said. I know he was excited. It was great to see the ovation he got when he walked out to the bullpen. There was a little extra

son as a starter for San Francisco. He pitched eight shutout innings in Game 4 of the 2010 World Series against Texas as the Giants went on to capture their rst championship since moving West in 1958. The other players agreeing Friday were: pitchers Hector Correa, Steve Edlefsen and Danny Otero; inelders Ehire Adrianza, Charlie Culberson, Conor Gillaspie and Angel Villalona; and outfielders Tyler Graham, Roger Kieschnick and Francisco Peguero. energy in the crowd and in the dugout today than you normally feel in a spring training game. It was fun. Everyone was happy to see Buster playing again. Bochy said Posey will catch again on Sunday, playing four innings. As for Sanchez, the Giants were happy to get him back into the line-

up, but the true test of his surgically repaired shoulder will come when he is ready to play in the eld. Bochy said the plan is for Sanchez to DH again on Sunday and play second base on Monday. Playing defense will be a big steppingstone for me, Sanchez said. I feel like Im getting a little stronger each day. Cain picked up the victory with three scoreless innings, striking out four. He has not allowed a run in ve innings in his two starts this spring. Reds starter Aroldis Chapman pitched two perfect innings, striking out two. The Reds are looking to see if the 24-year-old Cuban can pitch in the rotation instead of the bullpen, where he spent his rst two major league seasons. Chapman is in the running for the No. 5 starter job with Homer Bailey. However, manager Dusty Baker told reporters this week that an injury to reliever Bill Bray could prompt the Reds to scrap plans to put Chapman in the rotation.

RockiesNicasio continues remarkable return


By Arnie Stapleton
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. Juan Nicasio needs no reminders of the frightening line drive last summer that fractured his skull, broke his neck and nearly killed him. The Colorado Rockies stocky right-hander got one anyway. In his rst start since that game on Aug. 5, when Washingtons Ian Desmond scorched a fastball off his right temple, Oaklands second hitter, Eric Sogard, sent a heater whizzing by Nicasios head in the rst inning of the Athletics 6-4 win Friday. It was close. I said, Oh (shoot)! Nicasio recounted. Oh my God, it was close to me. But I dont think about it. After wiping his brow and taking a deep breath, Nicasio got back on the mound and seemed unfazed by the close call. He threw three impressive innings, scattering ve singles, allowing one unearned run, walking none and striking out two. Nicasio threw in an intrasquad game earlier in the week, his rst action without an L screen to protect him, and the Rockies were eager to see if

hed be shy Friday, recoiling or cutting off his follow through to protect himself because of what happened to him. I see no sign of that whatsoever, Rockies manager Jim Tracy said. Thats so encouraging to see. Tracy, himself, cringed at the comebacker, though. I cant really tell you how I felt about the baptism by re, if you will, when I saw that one line drive go back through the middle. I mean, it didnt take very long for that to happen, Tracy said. But, actually, maybe a good thing as we move forward. But I can tell you this, the ball was coming out of his hand big-time. The slider, its there. He threw rst-pitch strikes to 11 of the 13 batters he faced, and his fastball topped out at 94 mph. Nicasio, who went 4-4 with a 4.14 ERA and 58 strikeouts with 18 walks as a rookie last year before he got hurt, is trying to make the Rockies rotation just eight months after the accident that landed him in the hospital for 11 days and had doctors who usually see fractures of the C-1 vertebra in diving or auto accident patients

wondering if hed ever walk again, much less pitch in the majors. Nicasio, who never lost consciousness when he got hurt last summer, said he had no ashbacks, even when Sogard sent the screamer whizzing past him. Yeah, Im not thinking about what happened last year, Nicasio said. Im not thinking nothing about that. Now, its a new season, you know? I dont think about last year. Everyone around him still does. I think Im thinking about it way more than him, shortstop Troy Tulowitzki said. It seems like hes past it and moved on. It is a good story. I mean, its crazy to me. It was amazing, its nice to see that guy going back to the mound after all that stuff that he went through, slugger Carlos Gonzalez said. This guys a tough guy. Its not easy to do what hes doing right now. Hes a competitor. Hes unbelievable. Tulowitzki said he was awed by Nicasio even before the game. Today we started off with what we call ragsmash, its basically pitchers elding comebackers, and he made it to the nals, Tulowitzki said.

That was impressive to me. I was thinking for a guy to be last year on the eld just laid out on the mound from a line-drive comebacker ... it speaks volumes about how fearless of a kid he really is. And then to see him take the mound today, there was some balls hit hard back up the middle. Just to see him attack the strike zone even after those things happened is pretty impressive, Tulowitzki added. Brandon McCarthy allowed two earned runs on four hits in 4 2-3 innings for Oakland, and Jerry Blevins picked up the win by retiring the only batter he faced. Tulowitzki hit two doubles and scored twice off McCarthy to put the Rockies ahead 2-1 before the Athletics rallied for four runs off Tyler Chatwood in three innings. Oakland manager Bob Melvin said Cuban defector Yoenis Cespedes will make his rst start Saturday against Cincinnati. Hell bat second and play center eld in his spring training debut. Were just looking forward to seeing him out there and being part of the team and doing some things in the game, Melvin said. Thats all part of the camaraderie and chemistry. So, I think hes looking forward to that, too.

Longtime MLB umpire Wendelstedt dies at 73


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Longtime umpire Harry Wendelstedt, who worked ve World Series and made a call involving Don Drysdale that became one of baseballs most disputed plays in the late 1960s, died Friday. He was 73. Wendelstedt died at Florida Hospital Memorial Medical Center in Daytona Beach, Fla., near the umpiring school he ran for more than three decades in Ormond Beach. He had been diagnosed several years ago with a brain tumor. Wendelstedt called seven NL championship series and four All-Star games, and was behind the plate for ve no-hitters. He was on the major league umpiring staff from 1966-98. His son, Hunter, is a big league umpire and wears the same No. 21 that his father wore. The Wendelstedts worked games together in 1998 it was Hunters rst year in the majors and Harrys last season. Hall of Fame manager Tom Lasorda has championed Wendelstedt for enshrinement in Cooperstown. Hes got as good a chance as anybody. He

deserves it, Lasorda told The Associated Press after learning of Wendelstedts death. Lasorda said he was scouting for Los Angeles and was in the stands when Wendelstedt made his most notable call on May 31, 1968, at Dodger Stadium. Drysdale was trying for his fth straight shutout and was heading toward setting a then-record of 58 2-3 scoreless innings when San Francisco loaded the bases with no outs in the ninth inning. Drysdale threw a 2-2 pitch that struck Dick Dietz on the elbow, and the shutout streak seemed to be over. But Wendelstedt, the plate umpire, immediately ruled that Dietz didnt try to get out of the way. Wendelstedt called the pitch a ball and told Dietz to get back in the batters box. Id never seen that call before in the big leagues, Lasorda recalled. Never had seen anyone make it. After a heated argument, the game resumed. On a full-count pitch, Dietz ied out and Drysdale wound up pitching a shutout. Orel Hershiser set the shutout record of 59 innings in 1988, pitching under Lasorda.

Broncos suspended for FIFA delays inspection trip violating NFL drug policy

wasnt from a human. We proved conclusively at the NFL hearing on this matter that the NFL and its specimen collector wholly failed in their duties to safeguard and process my specimen properly, Williams said. In fact, the specimen collector was red by the NFL after compromising my specimen as well as others. The hearing ofcer, an NFL executive, ignored the NFLs own policy, engaged in inappropriate communications with top NFL ofcials about this matter without my knowledge or approval, corrupted the system, ignored that my specimen had been compromised, and now has subjected me to humiliation as well as suspension. Williams lawyer Peter R. Ginsberg said the specimen collector, whose name he wouldnt disclose, has said he watched Williams void directly into the specimen bottle, so it wouldve been impossible for the specimen to be non-human.

NEW YORK The NFL suspended linebacker D.J. Williams, defensive tackle Ryan McBean and tight end Virgil Green of the Denver Broncos for violating the leagues policy on performance-enhancing substances. The league announced the suspensions on Friday. McBean and Williams are suspended for Denvers rst six games of the 2012 season. Green is suspended for the teams rst four games. All three are suspended without pay. The players are eligible to participate in all offseason and preseason practices and games.

ZURICH FIFA postponed a 2014 World Cup inspection trip to Brazil next week by its top administrator, who sparked anger in the country by criticizing delays in preparations. FIFA President Sepp Blatter will rst visit Brazil and meet with President Dilma Rousseff, the governing body said. Blatter wrote to Rousseff on Friday and has requested a meeting in Brazil next week. FIFA said secretary general Jerome Valcke will resume his scheduled tour of 2014 host cities after the presidents meet. Valcke planned to join former Brazil playing greats Ronaldo and Bebeto in Recife, Brasilia and Cuiaba on the second of six tours this year. Ronaldo and Bebeto are members of the local World Cup organizing committee. Valcke rankled Brazilian officials last Friday by vulgarly saying they had to push themselves in dealing with preparations for the 32-nation tournament.

Brazil Sports Minister Aldo Rebelo described the comments as unacceptable, offensive and inappropriate. He demanded Valckes removal from the project before accepting written apologies from the French ofcial and Blatter. I dont know what FIFA thinks about keeping the secretary general as the interlocutor (with the government), Rebelo said Friday. I choose not to comment. Lets wait to see what happens. I reassure that Brazil desires to work with FIFA for the World Cup. Valcke is also responsible for overseeing the 2013 Confederations Cup, an eight-nation event designed to test Brazils infrastructure. It begins in June next year, although it is still unclear if Recife and Salvador will be ready to host matches. Despite the soured relations, FIFA ofcials continue to visit and work with Brazils local organizing committee. A team of nearly 40 people was in the city of Cuiaba on Friday.

ARE, Sweden All season, Lindsey Vonn has been the picture of poise on the mountain, no matter what she was dealing with off it. This day was different. With a chance to clinch her fourth World Cup overall title more than any other U.S. ski racer in history Vonn felt the nerves steadily building, her heart racing, when she stepped into the starting gate Friday for the second run of a giant slalom in Are, Sweden. Leading after the rst run, Vonn knew all she needed was one last safe pass through a

bumpy course with at light. Only, thats not her style. So she attacked the entire way seizing the opportunity, she called it and put the nishing touches on yet another race victory and yet another season championship, both by wide margins. Vonns two-run time of 2 minutes, 28 seconds was nearly a half-second faster than runner-up Federica Brignone of Italy, and more than a second faster than Olympic champion Viktoria Rebensburg of Germany. She secured the overall title with ve races left.

Watson shoots 62,takes the lead at Doral


By Doug Ferguson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DORAL, Fla. Bubba Watson and Justin Rose put on an amazing show of birdies in blustery conditions at Doral, making 17 between them while playing in the same group Friday at the Cadillac Championship. Their playful duel was decided by Watsons eagle, giving him a 10-under 62 and a one-shot lead. Watson belted a 3-iron that barely got over a palm tree, carried over the water into the wind and settled 6 feet away on the par-5 eighth for an eagle putt that gave him a one-shot lead over Rose. Mark Wilson, the third in that group, shot a respectable 70 and was just along for the ride. They did everything right, Wilson said. It was some of the best golf Ive seen collectively between them. Watson was at 12-under 132 and will get to play again in the nal group Saturday with Rose, who had to settle for a 64. Maybe theyve been cutting the hole a little bigger, Rose said. Despite the steady wind, there were plenty of low scores on the Blue Monster. The average score was 69.9, close to three strokes easier than the opening round. There were 12 scores in the 60s on Thursday, and 31 of them Friday. Tiger Woods played bogey-free for a 67 and actually lost ground. He moved up the leaderboard, but is seven shots behind going into the weekend, with 14 players ahead of him. This is the highest score I could have shot

today, for sure, Woods said. Rory McIlroy, in his rst tournament as the new world No. 1, managed a 69 and fell 10 shots off the lead. Perhaps most peculiar about Watson being atop the leaderboard at Doral is that he really doesnt like the course. Without many trees except for the waving palms, he cant gure out where hes supposed to be hitting the ball. But he kept hitting it long, had short irons into the greens and made his share of putts. That works just about anywhere. As always, there were a few shots that only Watson can see. He was so far left of the sixth fairway, that a tree was blocking his path to the green. Watson had only 135 yards to the hole, but instead of playing a sand wedge, he hit 9-iron and aimed it some 20 yards right of the green, slicing it back into the left-to-right wind beyond the hole until the wind pushed it back on the descent. It landed 6 feet from the cup. His caddie, Ted Scott, keeps notes in the yardage book of how Watson plays each hole in every round. Next to the 9-iron from 135 yards, he put in parentheses, Wow. There was another wow inscription two holes later. Watson was in the fairway on the par-5 eighth, but the best path to the green was around a palm tree near the ropes where the photographers were camped out. I took it right up the edge of that tree. Theres a little tree there and it actually nicked that limb a little bit, Watson said. I hit it as hard as I could, just a low, what everybody calls a stinger.

Bubba Watson shot a 10-under 62 to take the lead at Doral after two rounds.
Hit as hard as I could low and knew it wasnt going to slice. So all I was protecting was the draw and it went dead straight and came off perfect. And the rest is history. He went from one shot behind to one shot ahead of Rose, who had nothing to apologize about his 64. Rose, who contended last week in the wind at the Honda Classic, ran off four birdies in a ve-hole stretch around the turn, the exception coming on the 18th. Rose was among those caught up in the Bubba show. I dont let it inuence my game plan, the way I play the golf course, but denitely you keep one eye on him just out of interest, Rose said. Hes a fun guy to watch play golf. When he hits tee shots, theres a bit of disbelief and stuff like that, or he curves one, starts one in the trees and theres Ooohing and Aahhhing when it goes back into the fairways.

No one knows what to expect and I think its fascinating to watch. Even with the tees moved slightly forward and slightly less wind, the par-4 18th still played difcult. There were ve birdies, compared with only two birdies in the opening round. Adam Scott had one of them, holing a 20-foot putt for a birdie-birdie nish that allowed him to recover from a double bogey on the eighth hole. He shot a 68 and was at 10-under 134, two shots out of the lead. Right where I want to be, Scott said. The guys shot some unbelievably good scores out there today, so I knew on that back nine as I was kind of falling a long way behind, I needed to step it up, and I was happy the putter really came through for me. Tomorrow, Im just going to have to be really sharp, because theres no doubt again there are going to be low scores out there. Peter Hanson, who reached the quarternals of the Match Play Championship, took another step toward trying to secure a PGA Tour card. He had a 65 and was alone in fourth in this World Golf Championship. Thomas Bjorn has yet to make a bogey in 36 holes and had another 68. He was four shots behind, tied with PGA champion Keegan Bradley, who had a 67. The group at 7-under 137 included Masters champion Charl Schwartzel and former PGA champion Martin Kaymer. Youll take that any week, Bjorn said. Im not making a big number of birdies, obviously, but when you can keep big mistakes off your scorecard, thats the key to this golf course. Its very easy to make some big mistakes and its difcult to get it back.

Jets extend QB Sanchezs contract by 3 years


NEW YORK Mark Sanchez is the Jets main man, not Peyton Manning. After acknowledging that New York looked into pursuing Manning, Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum announced Friday night the team extended Sanchezs contract by three years. The move ended speculation the Jets could push him aside to make way for the former Indianapolis Colts star whos now a free agent.

incredibly strong. He scored ve goals before leaving the team in July on a personal leave of absence. Lenhart never returned, and his disappearance was the catalyst for a stretch of lowly soccer for the Earthquakes not really in terms of losses (3-6-5), but of falling continuous short in games and seeing their season drift away. Still, the Quakes decided to bring Lenhart back for the 2012 season, and according to San Jose head coach Frank Yallop, its like a new signing. Look for Lenhart to do most of his damage slightly in front of Wondolowski in the San Jose attack. Wondolowski has built his legacy by being in the right place at the right time. If Lenhart pressures up front and creates some havoc, Wondolowski can shine even brighter. But if he doesnt, waiting in the wings are players like Alan Gordon, who got hurt just after his San Jose debut. Back at full strength, Gordon gives Yallop some options up top. San Joses additions dont stop on offense. After Bobby Burling was swooped up in the expansion draft, the Quakes went out and signed Victor Bernardez, a Honduran National Team member who saw some time on the eld with the club during the Gold Cup last year. His presence presents an interesting dilemma for San Jose at the centerback position, considering that Jason Hernandez is expected to start and waiting in the wings is Ike Opara, who was hurt last year, but his talent and knack for goal on set pieces cannot be overlooked. Mr. Reliable Ramiro Corrales will man the left back spot and Steven Beltashour, arguably one of the best right backs in the MLS that you have yet to hear about, completes the backline. Jon Busch, fresh off his contract extension signed in the off season, returns for his second full season between the pipes. The 44 goals allowed isnt the prettiest number, but without some of Buschs eye-popping saves, the 2011 season would have been worse for San Jose. Changes in the MLS playoff system wont make things easier for the Quakes in 2012. Gone is the old format and in its place is a bracket in which the top ve teams from each

division qualify for the playoffs. The L.A. Galaxy are the reigning league champions and heavy favorites in the Western Conference. And while San Jose has made various promising strides, so have teams like Real Salt Lake, FC Dallas and Seattle Sounders FC. The battle for the fourth and fth spots in the Western Conference will be more than formidable.

San Jose via trade with FC Dallas. Chavez has adequate speed on the outside and enjoyed a career year last season. Hell look to ll the void left with the departure of long-time Earthquake Bobby Convey. Quake fans are super excited to see Simon Dawkins back in blue and white. San Jose extended their loan of the electric winger. Sam Cronin rounds out the starting mideld. But the offense doesnt stop there. Shea Salinas returns, Jean Alexandre joins the Quakes and San Jose signed Sercan Guvenisik, a Turkish player with ashes of greatness. But just like in 2011, the biggest factor for the San Jose offense wont be Wondolowski but Steven Lenhart. Lenhart appeared to be the player the Quakes prayed for when he started the season

Jimenez did an excellent job at the top of the order for the Colts, reaching base four times with two ineld hits and two walks. He also scored a pair of runs. Rios reached base four times for the Colts, knocking out three hits, including a pair of doubles. The only question that remains is to decide if the game will go down as ofcial, given the way it ended. I dont know, Roman said. We played ve innings. It was a legal game. But Im not concerned with that. Said Peluso: Were all good friends. We put the pressure on them early, but its nothing personal. Semien said his schools athletic director told him the Warriors would forfeit Fridays game, as well as Mondays game against Terra Nova. The way it was explained to me by my AD, since everyone left the bench, everyone is thrown out, basically. When you are thrown out of a ball game, you have to sit out the next game (as well), Semien said. Semien said it was his understanding Fridays game would be a forfeit by each team. Applying that logic, El Camino may be forced to forfeit its next game as well.

RIVALS
Continued from page 11
It was much more of a misunderstanding between (Semien and I), Roman said. Well settle it. Semien said his biggest disappointment wasnt how his team played but how the game ended. It got crazy. The worst thing that happened was the benches emptying and the coaches going at each other. We arent those type of people (Roman and I). We could probably care less about the game, Semien said. The fact those benches emptied is heartbreaking. Before the dustup on the eld, the Colts were dusting the Warriors on the scoreboard. El Camino wasted little time in jumping on South City, scoring a pair of runs in the rst inning. The Colts added three more in both the second and third innings, scoring a single run in the fourth and added six more in the fth. Despite scoring 15 runs and banging out 16 hits, Roman wasnt satised with the way his team played. I dont think we played very well, Roman said. South City didnt play very well. We know they can play better than that. We got a lot of gifts.

It got crazy.The worst thing that happened was the benches emptying and the coaches going at each other.We arent those type of people (Roman and I).We could probably care less about the game.The fact those benches emptied is heartbreaking.
Daryl Semien,South City manager

The teams faced off March 3 in the Tim Kuehnert Memorial Tournament hosted by Menlo School with the Colts coming away with a 5-4 victory. South City killed itself Friday by committing seven errors for the game, which resulted in nine of the runs being unearned. It was just one of those things, Semien said. We didnt make the plays we usually make. Semien said hes missing three starters for various reasons, forcing him to call up some froshsoph players and putting them in the starting lineup. I think (the problems are related to) its just young kids trying to adjust to the varsity game. El Camino pitcher Josh Eclevea beneted from the offensive output. He allowed just two runs while scattering ve hits. The Warriors scratched out a run in the second inning on a Maligi Maluia ineld hit which plated Gregorio Jimenez. They added a second run in the top of the fth on Tyler Kehanes one-out double, which drove in Andrew Puzzle, who singled to

lead off the inning. Other than that, Eclevea cruised despite not having his best stuff. After a bit of a rocky start, he settled down and found his groove. He nished with seven strikeouts, including four in a row the nal two outs of the second and the rst two outs of the third inning. Hes done a good job, Roman said. His breaking ball wasnt working, but he threw it (and got strikes) when he needed to. El Camino third baseman Brett Bolentini had big day at the plate for Colts. He had three hits and reached base four times in his ve at bats. He drove in four runs and scored twice. He singled and scored in the rst inning before driving in a pair of runs with a secondinning single. He ended up scoring again on the back end of a delayed steal of home plate. The Colts ran the play three times and were successful twice. In the third, Bolentini drove in two more with a single. Right elder Emiliano Rios drove in a pair of runs with a two-run double in the fth,

First stop: Peyton Manning meets with Denver Broncos brass
DENVER Peyton Manning spent the day on Tim Tebows turf, meeting for nearly six hours with the Denver Broncos on Day 1 of his free-agent tour of the NFL. Two days after being released by the Indianapolis Colts, Manning got the star treatment Friday in the Mile High City own to town on a chartered plane from Miami and spending the day with Hall of Fame quarterback John Elway, who also serves as Denvers vice president of football operations. They spent the afternoon and early evening together; coach John Fox and general manager Brian Xanders were along, too, as Manning took a tour of the complex. When he left after the marathon meeting, Manning didnt talk to reporters and jumped into the same silver SUV he Peyton arrived in, then was whisked away. Manning His next stop? There are more than a half-dozen other suitors, with Arizona and Miami among those expressing interest. But spending the rst day in Denver certainly made for some entertaining conversation. This is a city wrapped up in the debate over whether Tebow is a long-term solution at quarterback or just a feel-good story for a season. The mere fact the Broncos had Manning in for a visit might speak volumes about which way theyre leaning.

Syrian opposition rejects talks with regime


By Ben Hubbard and Zeina Karam
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

REUTERS

Syrians and Lebanese living in the area of Wadi Khaled near the border with Syria chant slogans against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad during a demonstration.

BEIRUT A high-prole international mission to end the Syrian crisis stumbled Friday before it began as the opposition rejected calls by U.N. envoy Ko Annan for dialogue with President Bashar Assad as pointless and out of touch after a year of violence. The dispute exposes the widening gap between opposition leaders who say only military aid can stop Assads regime, and Western powers who fear more weapons will exacerbate the conict. As the prospects for diplomacy faltered, Turkey reported the defections of three highranking military ofcers two generals and a colonel as well as two sergeants, a signicant development because until now most army defectors have been low-level conscripts. A deputy oil minister also deserted Assads regime this week, making him the highestranking civilian ofcial to join the opposition. The White House welcomed the reported defections as a sign the regime is cracking from within and that Assad will eventually fall.

Western and Arab powers are backing Annans two-day trip to Syria, starting Saturday, when he is to meet with Assad. The former U.N. secretary-general now a special U.N.-Arab League envoy for Syria has said he seeks to start a political process to end the crisis and warned against further militarization of a conict that appears headed toward civil war. I hope that no one is thinking very seriously of using force in this situation, Annan said Thursday in Cairo. I believe any further militarization would make the situation worse. He said he would present realistic solutions, but did not elaborate. Opposition leaders and activists rejected Annans plans Friday, saying they ignore the nature of Assads authoritarian regime as well as the thousands killed by security forces, many while peacefully calling for political reform. By phone from Paris, the head of the Syrian National Council told the Associated Press that Annan was overlooking what the opposition considers the root of the problem: The regimes use of overwhelming military force to crush dissent.

Greece secures biggest debt deal in history


By Elena Becatoros and Gabriele Steinhauser
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ATHENS, Greece Greeces private creditors agreed Friday to take cents on the euro in the biggest debt writedown in history, paving the way for an enormous second bailout for the country to keep Europes economy from being dragged further into chaos. Greece would have risked defaulting on its debts in two weeks without the agreement,

sparking turmoil in the nancial markets and sending shock waves through the other 16 countries that use the euro. Prime Minister Lucas Papademos called the deal which shaves some (euro) 105 billion ($138 billion) off Greeces (euro) 368 billion ($487 billion) debt load an important historic success in a televised address to the nation Friday night. For the first time, Greece is not adding but taking debt off the backs of its citizens. The country said 83.5 percent of private
advertisement

investors holding its government debt had agreed to a bond swap, taking a cut of more than half the face value of their investments as well as accepting softer repayment terms for Greece. The radical swap aimed to put the countrys debt-ridden economy on the road to recovery, and was a key condition to secure a (euro) 130 billion ($172 billion) rescue package from other eurozone countries and the International Monetary Fund. Charles Dallara, the managing director of

the Institute of International Finance, which negotiated the deal with the Greek government on large investors behalf, described the bond swap as the largest ever restructuring. This has been painful and the pain is not over yet. But I now can see light at the end of the tunnel for the Greek economy, Dallara told Greeces Mega television. He estimated Greece could return to the markets within a few years and said that if recovery continues, I think the risk for Greece and the risk on the eurozone will be very manageable.

North Korea vowing to keep its nuclear promises: Senator


By Matthew Pennington
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK A prominent U.S. senator met Friday with North Koreas nuclear envoy who promised to live up to commitments made in an agreement last week with the United States. Democrat Sen. John Kerry said that the North Korean also made a profound statement about wanting a different relationship and not wanting to ght with the United States. Kerry met the envoy, Ri Yong Ho, at an informal security conference in New York, a week after Pyongyang agreed to freeze uranium enrichment and allow in U.N. inspectors. The North also agreed to a moratorium on long-range missile and nuclear tests. They said that they will live by the agreement that they made last week, that we can count on that, Kerry, who chairs the Senate

Committee on Foreign Relations, told reporters. In return, the U.S. will provide its rst food aid to the impoverished communist nation in three years. That has contributed to an easing in tensions between the long-term adversaries, but is only a rst step toward restarting six-nation disarmament negotiations that the North withdrew from in 2009. We have been here before. We have come to these points that have been constructive and something breaks down. We need to try and change that dynamic, Kerry said. Despite warming U.S.-North Korean ties, tensions are still running high on the divided Korean Peninsula, and Pyongyang appears cool to Seouls offers of dialogue. Following U.S.-South Korean military exercises this week, the North called for a sacred war against the South and held military drills of its own near a disputed sea border.

High schools and colleges need to address the Study Drug


By Andrew Lyu

or many students in high school and college, caffeine is simply no longer cutting it. As students start to receive heavier workloads and feel more pressure to attain high grades to succeed, the abuse of Adderall, an amphetamine used to treat ADHD, has reportedly been on the rise. Although I had heard of the use of Adderall as a study drug before, I had never realized that it was a serious issue until I started talking to more college students about college life. When prescribed to ADHD patients, Adderall is supposed to help patients calm down and focus better. When taken by ADHD students, however, the drug is used as a tool for studying. Students say the drug

helps them attain a level of intense focus but also allows them to pull easy all-night study sessions. In the current academic climate, it is understandable why students want to get an edge in studying. In a society in which students are given the notion that a successful career is dependent on a successful education, students often do seek outside help to advance their educational means. At Aragon High School, many students seek college counselors, take SAT classes and cheat on tests. In this sense, the increase of Adderall abuse seems to follow the trend. To succeed, students will look for avenues by which they can succeed. I myself have on more than one

occasion brewed a late-night cup of coffee in preparation for cramming. Though reported to be more effective as a study drug than caffeine, Adderall has more severe side effects. An amphetamine, Adderall has the potential to become psychologically addictive. Moreover, it is even used as a recreational drug tantamount to speed. Adderall is a drug that high schools and

college campuses alike should spend more time to address. At Aragon, there were plenty of drug prevention programs against the use of recreational drugs such as marijuana, cocaine, crystal methamphetamine, ecstasy, etc.; however, I have yet to see any programs speaking out against the abuse of study drugs such as Ritalin and Adderall. A nice analogy for Adderall in the academic realm is the use of anabolic steroids in sports. The International Olympic Committee, Major League Baseball, National Basketball Association, National Football League and many other sporting bodies have all banned the use of anabolic steroids. Abusers of the drug are usually subject to revocation of any awards given during the period of use as well as suspension.

MONET IN LAS VEGAS. Bellagio Gallery of Fine Art in Las Vegas presents Claude Monet: Impressions of Light. Organized in partnership with the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston (MFA), this landmark exhibition features 28 works that illustrate the height of Claude Monets engagement with color and light. Highlighting 20 pieces by Monet, the founder of French Impressionist painting, the show also includes eight additional canvases by the masters predecessors and contemporaries. All of these works are drawn from the MFA, which holds one of the largest collections of paintings by Claude Monet outside of Paris. Gallery Director Tarissa Tiberti said, Bellagio Gallery of Fine Arts mission has always been to present exhibitions that engage and excite lovers of all genres of art, from classical to modern to contemporary. Exhibiting Monet and the French Impressionists provides historical background to some of the more contemporary shows we have presented over the last three years. Spanning four decades of Monets career and featuring many of the artists most celebrated and recognized paintings, Claude Monet: Impressions of Light also showcases paintings by other masters of the genre including Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, Camille Pissarro, Eugene Louis Boudin, CharlesFrancois Daubigny, Constant Troyon and Paul Signac. It was from Monets collaboration with these painters, along with his solitary explorations of the French countryside, that his own signature style eventually emerged.

Japan tourism recovering


By Beth J. Harpaz
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK A year after a tsunami and earthquake devastated parts of Japan, ofcials say tourism to Tokyo and other areas unaffected by the disaster is on track to recover to pre-tsunami levels, with business travel leading the way. In a conference call Thursday night, Shuichi Kameyama, director of the International Tourism Promotion Division at Japan Tourism Agency, said the number of visitors to Japan in 2011 was 6.2 million, down nearly 30 percent from the 8.6 million who visited in 2010. But arrivals have been picking up, with a surge in January due to Lunar New Year, and more tourists expected this spring for cherry blossom season and later in the year for summer festivals. Kameyama said foreign visitor arrivals in January 2012 were only 4 percent below January 2011, before the March 11 disaster. Kameyama said arrivals from Korea took the biggest hit in 2011, down 35 percent. Malcolm Thompson, general manager of The Peninsula Tokyo hotel, said that historically the hotels guests are 70 percent business, 30 percent leisure. Corporate business is 95 percent back, he said. Its really the high-end leisure traveler from America and Europe. Theyre the ones we are not seeing yet. Theyre the ones who are still very tentative about Japan. We here know that everything is ne and life is back to normal in most parts of

Japan, but thats not the perception. The World Travel and Tourism Council in December predicted that Japan tourism would make a recovery by early 2012 but added that there is still some work to be done in attracting previous levels of international visitors, particularly from long-haul markets where there may be residual nervousness regarding the nuclear situation. The tsunami and earthquake led to a meltdown at a nuclear power plant in Fukushima, about 180 miles from Tokyo. Efforts to counteract travelers fears include a Japan National Tourism Organization website at http://www.jnto.go.jp/eq/eng/04 recovery.htm showing radiation levels in Tokyo are similar to or lower than other places like New York and Paris. Thompson said at his hotel, occupancy levels are typically over 60 percent in the rst three months of the year, which tend to be the slowest. We are still 11 percentage points below what we would have been but it is dramatically improving now, he said. With cherry blossom season approaching, we are seeing within this month more inquiries from America, from potential American leisure guests, What time should I be there in Tokyo to see the blossoms? That is a very good sign. While bargains and promotions have helped lure some travelers back, others have been discouraged by the strong yen, which makes travel for foreigners expensive. Japan Tourism is launching new promotions this year in the U.S. and Canada targeting afuent, educated

leisure travelers from metro areas, as well as niche markets for visitors interested in everything from diving to pop culture to gay and lesbian travel. High-end tour companies will also be targeted in order to attract travelers who will spend more. Promotions in the U.S. will include celebrations of the 100th anniversary of Japans gift of owering cherry trees to Washington D.C. Cherry blossom season draws about a million people to the capital each spring. In New York City, a variety of events have marked Japan Week, including digital cherry blossom displays in Times Square and a Dine Out for Japan- Restaurant Week, March 7-11, with donations from participating restaurants going to disaster relief. Japanese tourism ofcials have also launched a Japan: Thank You campaign to welcome back tourists, with a logo showing a carp sh going upstream to symbolize Japan rising again. Kameyama said that according to legend, the carp turns into a dragon. This is the year of the dragon, Kameyama said. Its a good symbol for Japan to rebuild. At Japan Airlines (JAL), business travel has been leading a return in demand for Japan Airlines, according to assistant manager for overseas regional sales Chen Zhou Wen. We do expect a very good 2012. JAL promotions include the launch of Sky Manga, the worlds first airline manga (Japanese comics) reader. Travelers will have access to manga titles from a screen at every seat. Initially they will be available only in Japanese, Chen said.

n the last 10 years, the way visitors experience European cities has changed tremendously. The Euro went into circulation, allowing travelers to need only one currency within 15 of the countries comprising the European Union. Most travelers are now equipped with a smartphone and able to store maps, itineraries, and booking information electronically. When driving through a city, however, one of the most noticeable changes is the number of people on bikes. While some cities, such as Copenhagen and Amsterdam, have a long-established bicycle culture, many of Europes cultural capitals have created a bike culture through pioneering bicycle-sharing programs. Bike-sharing programs provide a number of benets to residents and the city: an improvement on the rst mile/last mile connection between various modes of transportation and ones destination, less environmental impact, more frequent use of public transportation and another option for daily commuters. Though Amsterdam and Copenhagen had the earliest incarnations of community bike sharing, it was Lyon, France, that originated the era of citywide bike sharing that we see spreading across Europe today. Lyons program, called Velov, was the rst to utilize technology to avoid vandalism and assist with tracking bikes. However, it is another French city, Paris, which gets most of the credit for spurring the bikesharing craze around Europe. With an initial 7,000 bikes, Paris Velib has grown to more than 20,000 bikes with sharing stations every 300 meters. The initial benets may be focused on commuters and residents, but the sharing systems are also advantageous for travelers. Wouldnt you rather see a city via bicycle, than traveling between landmarks underground in the Metro or Tube?

Shes reviewed Ruby Tuesday, Pizza Ranch, Applebees and Country Kitchen. Even fast-food joints such as KFC, Qdoba and Subway have undergone scrutiny. But it was her unfailingly polite prose about the Olive Garden complete with a detailed description of the bustling waiters that catapulted her to online stardom, at least briey.

Review of Olive Garden becomes Internet sensation

FARGO, N.D. A North Dakota newspaper columnist sat down to review her towns hot new Italian restaurant, rhapsodizing about the chicken Alfredo, crisp greens and two long, warm breadsticks. But because the restaurant was the Olive Garden, Marilyn Hagertys earnest assessment swiftly became an Internet sensation, drawing comments both sincere and sarcastic from food

The second most-read story a report about the University of North Dakotas Fighting Sioux nickname got a mere 5,500 views. Within hours of appearing, the piece was spreading rapidly across the Web.

phy, breath-holding and prayer to pull off in its own right. But once you realize that what youre watching is a trick albeit one thats beautifully executed from a technical standpoint with a nal twist thats really a gimmick, its novelty loses a bit of its luster. Still, Olsen always makes the movie watchable. She has to she appears in nearly every single frame and the fact that shes dressed in a imsy, cleavagebaring T-shirt and frequently photographed from above doesnt hurt. Following her star-making performance in Martha Marcy May Marlene, which yours truly picked as the best lm of 2011, Olsen continues to reveal a startling comfort and maturity in front of the camera for someone so young and relatively inexperienced. But the lms dexterous cinematographer, Igor

Martinovic, is just as much of a star behind the lens. In this Americanized version of the Uruguayan lm La Casa Muda, Olsen stars as Sarah, a 20-something woman helping her father (Adam Trese) and uncle (Eric Sheffer Stevens) x up the familys longtime, dilapidated summer home in hopes of selling it. The place is boarded up from the inside, so its pitch black even in the daytime, and anyone walking around must carry a lantern or ashlight to see where theyre going. This is crucial to creating a sense of tension and fear: We all feel like were wandering around in the dark together. Kentis and Lau, who previously directed the stripped-down, 2004 hit thriller Open Water, offer an unsettling vibe from the beginning. Its clear that something disturbing has gone on here; in particular, the conversations between Sarah and her uncle are just a bit off in tone. A long-lost friend (Julia Taylor Ross) shows up with fond memories of playing together as little girls but strangely, Sarah cant even place her.

So its no shocker that Sarah quickly comes undone in this claustrophobic setting as her paranoia escalates. It could happen to any of us, and heres a young woman who seems a bit shaky and lost already. Still, she reacts with relatable instinctiveness as things go from bad to worse, her breath creating a rhythmic soundtrack as she scampers through hallways and up and down stairs, trying to nd a way out. Silent House features several genuine scares and giggle-inducing jumps and, since this isnt your typically over-edited contemporary horror movie, they dont feel screechy or cheap. One sequence, in which the ashes from a Polaroid camera provide a rooms only light, offers a tantalizing, mounting feeling of fear. But once the ultimate twist is revealed, you may nd yourself feeling frustrated or even disgusted rather than frightened. Silent House, an Open Road release, is rated R for disturbing violent content and terror. Running time: 88 minutes. Two and a half stars out of four.

Anabolic steroids are banned from these sporting associations based on the premise that they give athletes an unfair, competitive edge and can cause detrimental physical and psychological side effects. Though Adderall does many similar things for students, administrators at high schools and colleges have not done enough to combat study drug abuse. Perhaps the dependence and abuse of Adderall is a symptom of the competitive nature of our society; however, if school administrators do not put the prevention of Adderall abuse higher on their priority lists, the abuse will only continue to escalate.

LAS VEGAS Rapper Coolio was arrested Friday on a warrant charging him with failure to appear in court on a traffic ticket almost two years ago. Coolio, 48, whose real name is Artis Leon Ivey Jr., was a passenger in a vehicle officers stopped about 2:20 a.m. several blocks east of the Las Vegas Strip, Officer Laura Meltzer said. No one else in the car was arrested. It was not immediately clear if Ivey had a lawyer. His manager Susan Haber said she had not heard about the incident and had no

comment. Ivey was sought on a warrant charging him with failure to appear on an illegal stop and driving without a license summons issued in June 2010. He was freed later in the day. A court date wasCoolio nt immediately known. Coolio is a musician, actor and record producer best known for the song Gangstas Paradise. Shortly after the sale, the seller receives a check for the items sold. Loza was not only a shopper, but she brought a lot of clothing that her little one had already outgrown. It was her first time participating, but Loza was already planning to start saving items for the next one. In the 15,000-square-foot San Mateo hall, shoppers will find a variety of items from furniture to bags of wooden alphabet blocks. There are aisles of clothing, strollers, a variety of toys and shoes, breast pumps, feeding pillows and even play areas. Each sale is different since the merchandise shows up days before the doors open to local shoppers. Even Broxterman takes advantage of the setup by selling her childrens clothing. This time she was particularly excited to grab shoes for her little ones. The Just Between Friends is open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday in the Redwood Hall at the San Mateo Event Center, 2495 S. Delaware St., San Mateo. Many items are marked down 50 percent Sunday. For more information visit www.jbfsale.com/sanmateo.

FRIENDS

nant with her youngest child who is now 2. After attending, she only had one question: Why do we not have this on the Peninsula? Right away, she told her husband shed start one once they returned. She purchased the franchise in late 2010 and held the first sale in the spring. And the turnout has only grown since then. The consignment idea isnt new. People bring items and receive 60 percent of the sale during the weekend event. That percentage increases to 65 if a person is willing to donate four hours of their time to work the event. Volunteering also means early access to the sale. Before bringing the items, people print out tickets and tag items. They set the price, decide if the price is slashed on the last day of the sale, and also mark what happens to the item at the end of the sale. The seller can pick up the item or donate it to one of the nonprofit partners. This weekends event will benefit Shelter Network, Home and Hope and Family and Children Services. More often, Broxterman said, people choose to donate the item.

SCHOOLS
Continued from page 1
building two schools that would be built at the same time because of the expense. Others simply wanted more information as well as feedback from the community about changing the grade congurations. Board President Seth Rosenblatt welcomed the idea. The longer I sit with it, the more I like it. It solves an equity problem and also gives options for technology, he said. Trustee Adam Rak agreed, noting he was intrigued by the amount of positives such an option offered. Congurations prepared by architect Paul Byrne, which were rough ideas, showed Central and Tierra Linda middle schools and how the parcels could be split to add a new school. If new schools were to be built, the district would need to also study ways to cover the

costs. Thats often completed through a bond measure. Baker estimated the bond could cost between $29 million to $59 million, depending on the needs. The district is currently working with a polling company which should survey the community later this month about a possible bond measure. Should the district go for a bond measure it would most likely be on a November ballot, which would allow a lower passage threshold of 55 percent. At joint meetings between representatives of the school board and City Council, ideas for working together to solve the issue of growth emerged including using park space. Laureola School was an elementary school on the east side of El Camino Real built in 1951. It was closed in 1978 due to declining enrollment. Today, Laureola Park, located at 503 Old County Road, remains. Discussion of the topic doesnt appear to have gone much farther than throwing out the original idea.

POT
Continued from page 1
The single family residence, located in a relatively quiet neighborhood was being used to conceal an illegal indoor marijuana growing operation, according to police. Plants were in various stages of growth and police say the cultivating operation was a strictly for-prot endeavor. This year, the task force has seized more than 3,500 plants and 19 pounds of processed marijuana from ve grow locations, according to police. The last bust was in Half Moon Bay in early February when 1,500 marijuana plants, approximately 19

pounds of processed marijuana and several guns were seized from a Half Moon Bay warehouse complex that was being used to conceal an illegal indoor marijuana grow operation and a residence connected to the operation. In that bust, the value of the processed marijuana was $60,800 and the plants were approximately $1.2 million. The investigation into Thursdays bust is ongoing and agents are still actively gathering and analyzing evidence that may result in additional charges and/or the identication of co-conspirators, according to police. Tang was booked into San Mateo County Jail on charges of cultivation of marijuana and is scheduled to be arraigned Monday, March 12, according to police.

SATURDAY, MARCH 10, 2012 PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Someone who is indebted to you isn?t likely to clear up his or her obligation in the agreed-upon time without being prodded to do so. It will be up to you to provide the necessary reminder. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Ignore any inclinations you have to postpone making a difficult decision. Nothing will change with time, and you?ll only be putting off doing what you must take care of eventually. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Substantial achievements can be made, provided you?re willing to face facts and pay the price. You?re going to have to earn

what you want the hard way: by doing it yourself. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Your energy, drive and luck all have their limitations, so don?t push any one of them too far. The results could end up being counterproductive. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- When it comes to handling a delicate domestic development, be smart and use a featherlike touch. Heavy-handed methods are only likely to create additional rebellion. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Think before you open your mouth when conversing with your pals. If you don?t, there?s a strong chance that you could unwittingly blurt out some caustic remarks that won?t be readily forgiven. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You should of course

look out for your own interests, but do so in ways that won?t hurt others in the process. If you steamroll people to get what you want, youll have very little to show for it in the end. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Even though you might have considerable reserves upon which to draw, it still might not be enough to accomplish your aims. However, don?t lose heart, you?ll have it all soon. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Usually it doesn?t take much to arouse your optimism, yet testy circumstances might cause you to think negatively. Don?t let gloom overshadow the light. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Don?t allow old objectives or friends to suffer neglect because of a

newfound enthusiasm on your part. Give each one the proper, adequate attention it deserves. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- This might be one of those days when the progress you make isn?t as rapid as you would like it to be. However, keep in mind that each and every step you make moves you closer to your goal. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Although your faith might be put to the test, remember that as long as you hold fast to the things you believe in, life will eventually work out to your satisfaction.

daunt Schmidt who was the rst candidate qualied for the ballot. In fact, he said, I love it! There is nothing negative about our voters having lots of options to choose from, its what makes our democracy great. Masur echoed the sentiDavid Woods ment. I think its great that so many candidates care enough about our county to throw their hat into the ring. Its a diverse eld with varying backgrounds and positions on the important issues facing San Mateo County, she said. Carlos Romero After announcing his candidacy just days before the Friday deadline, Slocum pointed out that voters had been asking for more contested county elections now they have one. If no one candidate receives more than 50 perErnie Schmidt cent of the votes in June 5 primary, the two top votegetters will square off in November. Although a supervisor represents his or her district, they are chosen by voters countywide. Supervisor Rose Jacobs Gibson is being termed out of the seat and has said she leans toward Warren Slocum endorsing Woods as her successor. District Four, the region each hopes to represent, includes Redwood City, Menlo Park and East Palo Alto and the unincorporated areas of North Fair Oaks and Oak Knoll.

Continued from page 1
The June ballot will include Menlo Park Councilman Andy Cohen and Mayor Kirsten Keith; County Board of Education Trustee Memo Morantes; Shelly Masur, trustee on the Redwood City Elementary School District Board, East Palo Alto Councilman David Woods and Mayor Carlos Romero; Ernie Schmidt, Andy Cohen Redwood City Planning Commission vice chair; and Warren Slocum, retired former chief elections ofcer and assessorcounty clerk-recorder. The Elections Office must still verify the signatures on the ling documents before declaring the candidates ofcially qualified although several Kirsten Keith already had been conrmed by the deadline. San Mateo County may have more hotly contested races in its past but Elections Office records dating back 34 years only show two even coming close the 1982 primary race in which Anna Eshoo Memo Morantes prevailed and the 1997 special election which sent Rich Gordon to the board. Both races had seven candidates. Also coming close was last years special election in which Supervisor Dave Pine won out of a six-candidate eld. This looks like it is going to be the biggest, Shelly Masur Tom said earlier in the day Friday. The large number of candidates doesnt

Records show Japan govt knew meltdown risk early


By Mari Yamaguchi
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

TOKYO Just four hours after a tsunami swept into the Fukushima nuclear power plant, Japans leaders knew the damage was so severe that the reactors could melt down, but they kept their knowledge secret for months. Five days into the crisis, then-Prime Minister Naoto Kan voiced his fears that it could turn worse than Chernobyl. The revelations were in documents released Friday, almost a year after the disaster. The minutes of the governments crisis management meetings from March 11 the day the earthquake and tsunami struck until late December were not recorded and had to be reconstructed retroactively. They illustrate the confusion, lack of information, delayed response and miscommunication among government, affected towns and plant ofcials, as some ministers expressed the sense that nobody was in charge when the plant conditions quickly deteriorated. The minutes quoted an unidentied ofcial explaining that cooling functions of the reactors were kept running only by batteries that would last just eight hours. If temperatures in the reactor cores keep rising beyond eight hours, there is a possibility of meltdown, the ofcial said during the rst meeting, which started about four hours after the magnitude-9.0 earthquake and ensuing tsunami hit the Fukushima Dai-ichi plant, setting off the crisis. Apparently the government tried to play down the severity of the damage. A spokesman for the Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency was replaced after he slipped out a possibility of meltdown during a news conference March 12. The plant operator, Tokyo Electric Power Co., acknowledged a partial meltdown much later, in May. Top government spokesman Yukio Edano,

who is now trade minister, urged other ministers to watch what they said to the public. We must provide information fast, but it must be accurate, Edano said on March 14. We must be clear about all our evaluations and judgment, and announce them only after we reach a decision. While then-trade minister Banri Kaieda suggested on March 11 that residents within a (6-mile) 10-kilometer radius might have to be evacuated, the government ordered 1,800-plus residents within a 1.2-mile (2-kilometer) zone to leave. Then that expanded to 5 miles (3 kilometers), then to 6 miles (10 kilometers) within two hours, and nally to 12 miles (20 kilometers) the next day. Kan said a 12-mile (20-kilometer) zone would sufce. After seeing a series of explosions and res at reactor buildings, Kan on March 16 cautioned his Cabinet about the possibility that the Fukushima crisis could be worse than the Chernobyl accident in 1986. Kan was particularly concerned about a spent fuel pool inside the No. 4 reactor building, which had the largest number of fuel rods and rising water temperatures. We should worry about the Unit 4 pool, whose temperature has been on the rise, he said, adding that other spent fuel pools at Fukushima Dai-ichi, as well as four others at the neighboring Dai-ni plant, could also deteriorate. The amount of radiation that could be released from those reactors could be larger than Chernobyl. We must keep cooling the reactors, whatever it takes. Its going to be a long battle, he said, according to the minutes dated March 16. It was nearly 10 days before one of his top nuclear advisers produced a worst-case scenario at his request. The March 25 paper, produced by the head of the Japan Atomic Energy Commission, warned that a disaster of that scale would require evacuating 30 million people from the greater Tokyo area.
