The countys former probation
chief probation ofcer surrendered
himself in court Friday on a
$100,000 arrest warrant but nearly
immediately posted bail to remain
free while awaiting trial on two
charges of felony child pornography
possession.
Stuart James
Forrest, 61,
walked into
court at 11 a.m.
Friday and was
remanded into
custody by the
Sheriffs Ofce,
according to
court clerks.
In a prearrangement with the
prosecuting attorney, he pleaded not
guilty and after being booked into
Maguire Correctional Facility and
posting bail was released, said his
defense attorney Jaime Leanos.
Forrest is due back in court April
9.
Forrest is charged with two
counts of possessing images of
minors exposing their genitals or
engaging or simulating sexual con-
duct.
Leanos said he has no details
about the alleged images or con-
tents, having just received discov-
ery, and has quite a bit to evaluate
before commenting on the case or
sitting down with his client to chart
a course of action.
This is very stressful for him but
hes doing as well as can be expect-
ed, Leanos said.
According to search warrant
records, Forrest reportedly told fed-
eral investigators who searched his
county office and home in

WASHINGTON Widespread

The Obama administration is
painting a dire portrait of the many
ways the public will feel the effects
of automatic federal spending cuts
due to begin March 1.
The grim picture is emerging as
the White House and lawmakers
count down the days until the gov-
ernment is forced to trim $85 billion
in domestic and defense spending
with hardly any leeway to save some
programs from the budget knife.
In detailing
the costs of the
cuts, President

also applying

LOS ANGELES Its still
February, but California gas prices
are springing forward.
The average price of gasoline in
the region saw one of the largest
one-month leaps since 2000, the
Automobile Club of Southern
California said Friday. Statewide,
the average price of regular gasoline
was $4.22, up 12 cents from last
week.
Gas prices have spiked between
57 and 59 cents over the past 30
days. The regions largest increase
was 70 cents between May and June
2008.
Auto Club ofcials said the surge
cant be attributed to a single factor,
but refineries were expected to
undergo a heavy maintenance
schedule, and large amounts of
money have been plowed into con-
tracts speculating that the price of
gas and oil will go up.

The insane man who killed a vocational
center client in San Carlos must be moved out
of a private psychiatric facility into a state-run
hospital if his care is to be funded by the state
of California, a judge ruled Friday.
San Mateo County Judge Mark Forcum
reversed his previous placement of Vitin Ajani
Cruz, 39, after the state Attorney Generals
Ofce said the state would not pay unless the
man is treated at Napa State Hospital. If
Forcum had upheld his earlier order, San
Mateo County would have been required to
pay for Cruzs housing at Crestwood
Behavioral Health Center near Calistoga
which his defense attorney had argued was the
best place for treatment and less expensive for
taxpayers.
The single issue was money. Thats all that
mattered, said defense attorney Vince
OMalley.
OMalley said Crestwood costs $241 per
day while Napa State Hospitals rate has sky-
rocketed up to $700 daily.
Having said that, the state still refused to
pay, OMalley said.
San Mateo County District Attorney Steve
Wagstaffe called Forcums
decision excellent and
afrms his ofces original
position of where Cruz
belongs. Prosecutors
argued that the private
facility is not meant as a
permanent placement for
incompetent or insane
patients from the criminal
system.
A status report by Napa is due within 10
business days to determine if bed space is
available for Cruzs move. OMalley said
shifting Cruz to Napa also takes up a bed for a
patient who may be more difcult to manage
and better require that type of supervision.
Cruz had been staying at Crestwood the pre-
vious 14 months while deemed incompetent
for trial on murder charges and later while
prosecuted for the 2004 stabbing death of
Alfonso Ruiz.
In October, Cruz pleaded no contest to sec-
ond-degree murder and the use of a knife in
the Oct. 27, 2004 death at Vocational
Rehabilitation Services on Quarry Road in
San Carlos. According to prosecutors, Cruz
mistook Ruiz for another man as they sat next
to each other at the center and suddenly
lunged at him with a knife. Ruiz was stabbed
several times in the upper torso and arm. Cruz
ed but was arrested a few blocks away from
the site. Ruiz died the following afternoon.
Cruz accepted the negotiated plea after
prosecutors agreed he was not guilty by rea-
son of insanity based on doctors conclusions.
OMalley has said Cruz has a deep fear of
being stabbed because he was left with severe
stomach wounds several years before the mur-
der during a bus attack in San Francisco. Cruz
thought Ruiz was somehow associated with
his previous attackers and possibly armed
with a box cutter.
Cruzs hospitalization was just the latest in
a long string since his arrest in Ruizs death.
In 2005, court-appointed doctors found him
unable to aid in his own defense and he went
back and forth between the mental facilities
and county care until he was found competent
in 2012.
Competency is a persons ability to aid in
his or her own defense while sanity is a per-
sons mental state at the time of an alleged act.
Schizophrenia medication and other signs
of psychiatric problems were found at Cruzs
home during a police search after the stab-
bing.
Driver thrown from car,
killed in solo Bayshore crash
A Redwood City woman killed in a fatal
crash Friday morning was ejected from the car
she was driving after it went off the road and
struck a light pole, fence and re hydrant,
police said.
Alma Cabrera-Villar, 20, was found face
down in the road on the 1700 block of East
Bayshore Road around 2:20 a.m. after police
responded to a crash, according to police. She
was pronounced dead at the scene a short time
later.
Investigators determined that Cabrera-Villar
had been the driver of the vehicle, which was
traveling south when it left the road for an
unknown reason and struck a light pole, police
said. It then continued south, striking a fence
and a re hydrant before coming to a stop.
No other vehicles appear to have been
involved in the crash, police said. It is unclear
if drugs or alcohol were a factor.
A passenger in the vehicle was treated for
minor injuries.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
Time, as they say, is money and in
the case of the proposed Transit
Village development in San Carlos
that means more than $175,000
extra to consultants for attending
more public meetings than antici-
pated to give environmental docu-
ments the green light.
On Monday, the City Council will
consider tweaking the professional
services agreement with environ-
mental consulting rm Atkins North
America, Inc. for attending its Jan.
28 hearing on the nal environmen-
tal impact report. The recommenda-
tion of $25,000 would include com-
pensation of $1,787.50 for atten-
dance at the January meeting plus
allow a margin in case any other
unforeseen environmental work is
necessary as the project goes on.
Approval also would bring the
total of additional amendments to
the original consulting contract to
$174,499 which covers the requests
for additional information and addi-
tional public hearings since Atkins
was retained in January 2008 to pro-
duce the EIR. The work has includ-
ed responses to hundreds of com-
ments, visual simulations, diagrams
and analysis of shadowing into the
Greater East San Carlos which gen-
erally opposes the development as
proposed.
The cost is passed through the city
to the project developer, Legacy
Partners, which has already agreed
with the budget amendments,
according to the staff recommenda-
tion. In October, the city previously
increased the contract after the
Planning Commission held several
meetings and began anticipating
several more before making its rec-
ommendation to certify the EIR.
The Planning Commission met
four times before unanimously
although not without concern
voting to recommend that the City
Council certify the EIR. The City
Council met three times before vot-
ing 3-2 in favor of nding the envi-
ronmental review acceptable.
The proposed development con-
cerns a 10.53-acre strip of land
within the existing Caltrain station
and running parallel to the railroad
corridor. Legacys proposal envi-
sions eight four-story buildings with
281 housing units among a mix of
407,298 square feet of residential,
23,797 square feet of ofce space
and 14,326 square feet of retail
space. The project would also
include 667 parking spaces and a
new SamTrans Transit Center on
4.29 acres.
The San Carlos City Council
meets 7 p.m. Monday, Feb. 25 at
City Hall, 600 Elm St., San Carlos.

Options for allowing dogs off-
leash at Washington Park will be the
topic of a community meeting
Saturday.
The off-leash conversation began
in 2008, when the council voted to
allow dogs on the upper eld of
Cuernavaca Park and the eastern
most lawn in Washington Park to
roam free before 7:45 a.m. Since
then, the city tested allowing dogs
off-leash in the evening hours, from
6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. However, mak-
ing that option permanent was voted
down by the council in a split vote
last March. During that meeting,
Parks and Recreation staff was
directed to consider ways to
upgrade the current park as well as
look for opportunities to provide
another.
After studying research and chat-
ting with neighboring cities, a num-
ber of options were put together. On
Saturday, those in the community
will have a chance to learn about
options and give their input on the
possible solutions.
Increasing opportunities to
have dogs off-leash was original-
ly brought up in September 2010
when the council discussed
extending the hours to include
after 6 p.m. but asked the Parks
and Recreation Commission to
gather more public opinion. A
survey from 2011 showed a posi-
tive response for the additional
hours. The commission again rec-
ommended the expansion for a
trial period, which was granted.
The trial period ended Feb. 15,
2012 with no reports of issues or
complaints, according to a report
from the Parks and Recreation
Commission. The police department
issued one citation, one leash law
warning and took two calls about
dogs in the park during the trial but
all calls were outside of the desig-
nated hours. As a result, the com-
mission recommended to perma-
nently allow the extended hours
which the council denied in a 3-2
vote.
The meeting will be held from 10
a.m. to noon Saturday, Feb. 23 at the
Burlingame Recreation Center, 850
Burlingame Ave.

A San Francisco man was arrested
in San Carlos after he was robbed at
gunpoint of his car and 2 pounds of
marijuana he tried to sell in the
McDonalds parking lot Wednesday
evening.
Thirty-three-year-old Jia Hang Li
was arrested for possession and
transportation of marijuana for sale
Wednesday evening. Deputies from
the San Mateo County Sheriffs
Department San Carlos Police
Bureau responded to a call from Li
of a possible armed robbery at 8:40
p.m. Wednesday evening.
Li, who is in custody, told police
he had driven from San Francisco in
order to sell about 2 pounds of mar-
ijuana to a man whom he had never
met, but had spoken with over the
phone. The two men met in the
McDonalds parking lot, at 180 El
Camino Real.
The potential buyer described
as a tall, dark skinned man in his 20s
brandished a black handgun at Li
then demanded his cellphone and
car keys, according to a police
report.
The unknown man stole Lis vehi-
cle, which contained the drugs.
Deputies found the unoccupied
vehicle parked a few blocks away
but the buyer was not found. A
search of the vehicle resulted in
police nding a bag containing 179
grams, less than half a pound, of
weed.
Li was arrested but posted a
$20,000 bond and is due in court
March 26.
Police are still looking for the
man who stole his car. Anyone with

SACRAMENTO A Central
Valley lawmaker resigned unexpect-
edly Friday, creating a vacancy that
dropped Democrats below the two-
thirds threshold they need to pass tax
changes or override vetoes. The loss,
however, was expected to be tempo-
rary and not have major impacts on
the majority partys clout.
State Sen. Michael Rubio, a mod-
erate Democrat from the San
Joaquin Valley town of Shafter,
which is near Bakersfield,
announced that he was stepping
down immediately to take a govern-
ment affairs job with Chevron Corp.
He was in the middle of his rst term
in the Senate after being elected with
60 percent of the vote in 2010.
His resignation comes on top of
recent vacancies but Democrats
were already expecting to face dif-
culties in some of their goals later in
the year, such as cementing a contro-
versial $150 fee on rural residents
whose homes are at risk from wild-
res.

SACRAMENTO Nine in 10
California voters say they support
allowing illegal immigrants who
have been in the country for several
years to stay and become citizens if
they have a job, learn English and
pay any back taxes they may owe,
according to a Field Poll released
Friday.
The poll, which comes as
Congress prepares to debate federal
immigration reform, also found that
a majority of voters support allow-
ing residents who are in the U.S.
illegally to get California drivers
licenses, a reversal from previous
surveys.
Assemblyman Luis Alejo, D-
Salinas, has proposed legislation
this year that would allow the
Department of Motor Vehicles to
issue licenses to any resident who
can show they pay taxes, regardless
of their immigration status. Former
state Sen. Gil Cedillo, a Democrat,
tried for more than a decade to make
such a change, but his efforts either
did not make it through the
Legislature or were vetoed by previ-
ous governors.
The Legislature took a partial step
last year when Gov. Jerry Brown
signed a bill by Cedillo that allows
some young illegal immigrants to
obtain drivers licenses. Those
immigrants would have to be eligi-
ble for work permits under a new
federal deferred-action policy.
While the poll found voters sup-
port loosening restrictions on some
illegal immigrants, it also found that
two-thirds favor boosting the num-
ber of federal agents patrolling the
border with Mexico.

Six tanks at Hanford
nuclear site in Washington leaking
YAKIMA, Wash. Six underground tanks that hold a brew
of radioactive and toxic waste at the nations most contami-
nated nuclear site are leaking, federal and state ofcials said
Friday, prompting calls for an investigation from a key sena-
tor.
Washington Gov. Jay Inslee said the leaking material poses
no immediate risk to public safety or the environment because
it would take a while perhaps years to reach groundwa-
ter.
But the leaking tanks raise new concerns about delays for
emptying them and strike another blow to federal efforts to
clean up south-central Washingtons Hanford Nuclear
Reservation, where successes often are overshadowed by
delays, budget overruns and technological challenges.
Department of Energy spokeswoman Lindsey Geisler said
there was no immediate health risk and said federal ofcials
would work with Washington state to address the matter.
Regardless, Tom Towslee, a spokesman for Sen. Ron
Wyden, D-Ore., said the senator will be asking the
Government Accountability Ofce to investigate Hanfords
tank monitoring and maintenance program.
Microsoft joins list of
companies recently hacked
REDMOND, Wash. Microsoft has joined the list of
prominent technology companies conrming they have been
hit by a recent computer hacking attack.
In a blog posting Friday, Microsoft said it had found no evi-
dence that any customer data had been heisted.
Microsoft Corp. gave few other details about the break-in,
except to say that was it similar to a hacking attack that online
social networking leader Facebook Inc. disclosed last week.
Facebook had said its investigation had discovered other com-
panies had been hacked, but didnt identify the other victims.
Like Facebook, Microsoft says it is still investigating how
malicious software was planted on what it said were a small
number of its computers.
Around the nation
By Tom Raum
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Republicans and other
scal conservatives keep insisting on more
federal austerity and a smaller government.
Without much fanfare or acknowledgement,
theyve already gotten much of both.
Spending by federal, state and local govern-
ments on payrolls, equipment, buildings,
teachers, emergency workers, defense pro-
grams and other core governmental functions
has been shrinking steadily since the deep
2007-2009 recession and as the anemic recov-
ery continues.
This recent shrinkage has largely been
obscured by an increase in spending on bene-
t payments to individuals under entitle-
ment programs, including Social Security,
Medicare, Medicaid and veterans benets.
Retiring baby boomers are driving much of
this increase.
Another round of huge cuts known in
Washington parlance as the sequester
will hit beginning March 1, potentially mean-
ing layoffs for hundreds of thousands of fed-
eral workers unless Congress and President
Barack Obama can strike a decit-reduction
deal to avert them.
With the deadline only a week off, Obama
and Republicans who control the House are
far apart over how to resolve the deadlock.
While last-minute budget deals are frequent in
Washington, neither side is optimistic of
reaching one this time.
Even as the private sector has been slowly
adding jobs, governments have been shedding
them, holding down overall employment gains
and keeping the jobless rate close to 8 percent,
compared with normal nonrecessionary levels
of 5 to 6 percent that have prevailed since the
1950s.
Its a massive drag on the economy. We
lost three-quarter million public-sector jobs in
the recovery, said economist Heidi Shierholz
of the labor-friendly Economic Policy
Institute. Were still losing government jobs,
although the pace has slowed. But we havent
turned around yet.
A larger-than-usual decline in federal
spending, notably on defense programs,
helped push the economy into negative territo-
ry in the nal three months of 2012. Economic
growth, meanwhile, has been inching along at
a weak 1-2 percent not enough to signi-
cantly further drive down the national unem-
ployment rate, which now stands at 7.9 per-
cent.
Govt downsizes amid GOP demands for more cuts
By David Espo
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Unlike in earlier
rounds of budget brinkmanship, President
Barack Obama and congressional
Republicans both seem content to ght out
their latest showdown on the current terrain,
let across-the-board spending cuts take effect
on March 1 and allow them to stay in place
for weeks if not much longer.
This time, there is no market-rattling threat
of a government default to force the two
sides to compromise, no federal shutdown on
the short-term horizon and no year-end dead-
line for preventing a tax increase for every
working American.
The rhetoric is reminiscent, for sure.
So far at least, the ideas that the
Republicans have proposed ask nothing of
the wealthiest Americans or the biggest cor-
porations, Obama said this week as he cam-
paigned to pin the blame for any negative
effects on his political opponents. So the
burden is all on the rst responders, or sen-
iors or middle class families, he said in com-
ments similar in tone to his re-election cam-
paign.
Republicans, standing on political ground
of their own choosing, responded sharply to
the presidents fresh demand for higher taxes.
Spending is the problem, spending must
be the focus, said House Speaker John
Boehner of Ohio, while Senate GOP leader
Mitch McConnell of Kentucky declared,
There wont be any easy off-ramps on this
one. The days of 11th hour negotiations are
over.
A crisis atmosphere could yet develop this
spring, when hundreds of thousands or even
millions of threatened government furloughs
begin to take effect and the spending cuts
Obama, Republicans see
no need to stop the cuts

SACRAMENTO California lawmakers
on Friday positioned themselves to tackle
changes to the states landmark environmental
regulatory law, which has long been a source
of conict among business, environmentalists,
labor groups and local governments.
Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg,
a Sacramento Democrat, proposed a bill on
the last day for lawmakers to introduce legis-
lation. Steinberg said his SB731 will make it
easier to build so-called inll projects and
limit document dumps aimed at delaying
projects.
This measure sets the framework to
encourage smart, environ-
mentally sound growth by
streamlining the environ-
mental review process
without compromising the
quality of life Californians
deserve and expect in our
communities, Steinberg
said in a statement.
Democrats are renewing
their efforts to modernize
the California
Environmental Quality Act after a proposal
failed last year. Gov. Jerry Brown, who sup-
ports CEQA reform, once called streamlining
the laws many requirements the Lords

Obama, Japans PM signal
solidarity on North Korea
WASHINGTON Japans new prime min-
ister declared Friday he would make his coun-
try a stronger U.S. ally
and joined President
Barack Obama in warning
North Korea that its recent
nuclear provocations
would not be tolerated.
After meeting Obama in
the Oval Office, Prime
Minister Shinzo Abe also
sent a clear message to
China: that while Japan
does not want confrontation with Beijing, it
wont tolerate challenges to its sovereignty
over islands disputed by the two Asian pow-
ers.
Those regional tensions served as the back-
drop for Fridays meetings that came just two
months after Abe began his second stint as
Japans prime minister following a convincing
election victory.
Egypt opposition warns
elections will add tensions
CAIRO Egypts president called multi-
stage parliamentary elections beginning in
April but a key opposition leader warned
Friday that the vote may only iname tensions
unless there are serious political talks rst.
President Mohammed Morsi set the start of
a staggered, four-stage voting process for
April 27 ending in June. The newly elected
parliament would convene on July 6, a decree
issued late Thursday night said.
Mohamed ElBaradei, who leads the main
opposition National Salvation Front, wrote on
his Twitter account Friday that Morsis deci-
sion to go for parliamentary elections amidst
severe societal polarization and eroding state
authority is a recipe for disaster.
Egypt has been mired in political turmoil
for the past two years. The current phase
began when Morsi took over as president in
June 2012.

BEIRUT Gunmen from rival Sunni and
Shiite Muslim villages in northern Syria have
freed more than 200 people snatched in tit-for-
tat kidnappings this month, easing tensions
that threatened to touch off more sectarian
violence, activists said Friday.
In Syrias largest city of Aleppo, three explo-
sions that appeared to be caused by missiles
killed at least 14 people, activists said, adding
that dozens of others were feared to be trapped
under the rubble of damaged buildings.
The wave of abductions in a rural part of
Idlib province highlighted how much the civil
war between the regime of President Bashar
Assad and the hundreds of rebel groups seek-
ing his ouster has enamed tensions between
Syrias myriad religious groups.
The Syrian regime, established more than
four decades ago by Assads father, Hafez, has
largely stocked the upper ranks of the coun-
trys security agencies and armed forces with
members of the ruling familys minority
Alawite sect, an offshoot of Shiite Islam. Most
of the rebels ghting Assads forces are poor,
rural members of Syrias Sunni majority.
Other religious minority communities, like
Christians and Druze, have largely remained
on the sidelines. As the conict approaches its
third year, its sectarian divide is worsening.
This month, clashes broke out between Sunni
and Shiite villages in the area of Qusair, near
the Lebanese border. Islamic extremists who
have joined the rebels have destroyed
Christian liquor stores, and sometimes refer to
their dead adversaries with derogatory names
insulting their sects.

WASHINGTON The U.S. and its NATO
allies revealed Friday they may keep as many
as 12,000 troops in Afghanistan after the com-
bat mission ends next year, largely American
forces tasked with hunting down remnants of
al-Qaida and helping Afghan forces with their
own security.
Patience with the 11-year-old war has
grown thin in the U.S. and Europe, yet
Washington and its allies feel they cannot pick
up and leave without risking a repeat of what
happened in Afghanistan after Soviet troops
withdrew in 1989: Attention turned elsewhere,
the Taliban grabbed power and al-Qaida found
refuge.
In disclosing that he and his NATO counter-
parts were discussing a residual force of
between 8,000 and 12,000 troops in
Afghanistan beyond 2014, Defense Secretary
Leon Panetta said most allied defense minis-
ters assured him they are committed to
remaining part of a U.S.-led coalition.
I feel very condent that we are going to
get a number of nations to make that contribu-
tion for the enduring presence, Panetta told a
news conference at NATO headquarters in
Brussels at the conclusion of a defense minis-
ters meeting.
The U.S. and its allies have managed to
stick together throughout the war, despite dif-
fering views. The Europeans have seen the
military mission as mainly aimed at promot-
ing stable governance; the Americans have
viewed it as mainly combat. Some allies,
including France, have already pulled out
their combat troops.

One Bay Area
Editor,
The following is a letter I sent to my
Santa Clara County supervisor regarding
One Bay Area.
Dear (elected ofcial),
On Feb. 8, 2013, a meeting occurred
which was hosted by the Joint Venture
Silicon Valley Network and the Silicon
Valley Community Foundation. The
theme of the meeting was to tout the
advantage of regionalization, merging
the entire Bay Area in to one region.
This is a very dangerous idea for the fol-
lowing reasons:
1. Businesses that remain stagnate
may be replaced by those that accept
change or adjust to become more ef-
cient, but governments get ossication
of bureaucracy. Therefore, as they grow,
they become less efcient, so the sup-
posed claims of efciencies are false.
The term typical government opera-
tion is used to denote an inefcient
loser of a business.
2. Rather than having to lobby 101
cities, regionalization gives much more
power to special interests (teachers
unions, police, reghters come to
mind). It is easier to control the few than
the many. Pressure may be placed on the
regional representatives who could easi-
ly be coerced into complying with ideas
that are to their benet but hurt the peo-
ple they supposedly serve.
3. Local city governments and even
county governments become irrelevant
or are done away with completely, thus
giving the residents even less control
over their lives. People lose any chance
of inuencing their government. That is
already in jeopardy because of the
power of the feds and the state. Regional
government is not self government, even
if the regional people are elected. Our
country was set up to have most of the
power with the individual and local gov-
ernment because our founders under-
stood what happens when power is con-
solidated. Local is the key.
Regionalization, as proposed in this
conference, is the antithesis of self gov-
ernment, where the power is supposed
to be with The People and their local
elected ofcials. There is no one Bay
Area. All 101 cities and nine counties
have completely different characters.
Vive la difference! Lets keep it that
way!

Cut for the poor
Editor,
The word of the month in Washington
is sequestration, or the automatic $85
billion in spending cuts slated to take
effect on March 1 unless Congress
reaches a deal. What will those cuts
mean in real life for the poor, unem-
ployed, sick and children? The econom-
ic group Macroeconomic Advisers pre-
dicted that the sequester will slow eco-
nomic growth by more than half a per-
centage point and result in the loss of
700,000 jobs.
Critical areas are as follows: 125,000
people will lose Section 8 housing,
which is critical housing support for the
working poor, 100,000 people who are
homeless will not receive the support
that they need without a place to go and
there wont be 450,000 AIDS tests.
About 500,000 vaccines wont be manu-
factured, a million people wont be able
to access community health centers and
unemployment insurance for 4 million
long-term unemployed will be cut by 10
percent. In terms of education, 70,000
kids wont have access to Head Start;
another 30,000 in terms of child-care
assistance.
The reality is that the U.S. govern-
ment funds its level of activities at the
same level of Mexico. The United States
has the lowest level of taxation of any
developed country in the world. And
what that means is that we are underin-
vesting in infrastructure, were underin-
vesting in education and were underin-
vesting in the key things that fuel eco-
nomic growth.

I
s Meg Whitman wreaking her
vengeance on the voters of
California?
Whitman, now CEO of Hewlett-
Packard, lavished $144 million of her
own money on her failed bid to best
Jerry Brown in the 2010 gubernatorial
race.
On Thursday, state legislators were
told the Department of Motor Vehicles
has halted a $208 million overhaul of
its vehicle registration and drivers
license technology halfway through the
project because the contractor was
making scant progress.
Among the promises Whitman made
as a candidate was to save taxpayers
money by upgrading state governments
antiquated computer systems.
But California has already paid near-
ly $50 million to the contractor, HP
Enterprise Services, a subsidiary of
Whitmans company. In all, DMV has
spent $135 million on the failed project,
but a spokesman said the department
will not pay HP Enterprise Services the
remaining $26 million in its contract.
A state report issued in December
said the contractor had been unable to
complete some tasks. Faulty computer
coding and critical positions left vacant
were cited as contributing to project
delays, the Los Angeles Times reported.
When the DMV project started in
2007, the contractor was called
Electronic Data Systems. That company
was bought by Hewlett-Packard and
renamed HP Enterprise Services.
Whitman took over Hewlett-Packard
in 2011 and is trying to turn the com-
puter giants fortunes around. Tongue
was in cheek when we suggested that
the failed DMV project might be her
revenge on state taxpayers.
Actually, California government has
suffered a rash of expensive technology
failures.
Earlier this month, the State
Controllers Ofce red the contractor
responsible for upgrading and modern-
izing the computer network that issues
paychecks to state employees.
The state had spent $254 million
toward that $371 million project, the
Times reported, including more than
$50 million to the contractor, SAP
Public Services. A spokesman said the
Controllers Ofce would try to recoup
the money paid to SAP.
State ofcials said SAPs program
made errors at more than 100 times the
rate of the outdated payroll system it
was supposed to replace.
SAP took over the project three years
ago after the previous contractor could-
nt get it done.
Now it appears that the project,
dubbed the 21st Century Project, will
stretch on indenitely toward the 22nd
century.
SAP also was the contractor for Los
Angeles Unied School Districts cata-
strophic attempt to upgrade its payroll
system in 2007.
The California Technology Agency,
which oversees state computer initia-
tives, had to break the news to the
Legislature on Thursday that a second
wildly expensive project was canceled
with nothing to show for it. For the two
projects, thats $389 million down the
drain. Carlos Ramos, secretary of the
California Technology Agency, might
want to spend a little time updating his
resume.
Youd think in California, the home
of Silicon Valley, government could
nd some contractors capable of
installing big computer systems.
States failed $389M computer upgrades
Belmont wants to stop
the sale of your home
By Suzan Getchell-Wallace
D
o you think the city of Belmont has the right to
stop the sale of your private property? If you
dont go to the City Council meeting on Tuesday,
Feb. 26 at 7:30 p.m. in the Council
Chambers, 1 Twin Pines Lane, they very
well could give themselves that power.
Under the guise of consumer protec-
tion, the City Council wants to require
property owners to pay to inspect their
sewer lateral pipes and if needed,
repair or replace them before the city
will allow the home sale to close. And if
you have to repair or replace the line, it
will cost thousands of dollars ($7,500 to $25,000) just to
close escrow. The proposal is part of a larger strategy for
the upgrade of the treatment, disposal and control of
wastewater. It sounds like a good idea until you begin
reading the proposal.
It states clearly the city will require private property
owners to replace their sewer laterals when they sell their
home. In laypersons terms, its called a point-of-sale
mandate. Think youre in the clear because you dont plan
on selling your home? If your home and the house next
door are serviced by Y lateral they all have to be replaced
citywide whether you sell or not.
If youre wondering how they can do that, then you may
not be aware that years ago, overall responsibility for the
maintenance and repair of the sewer lateral system was
offloaded from the city to its residents.
What does that really mean for the citizens of Belmont?
It means the city has decided to place the burden of fixing
a community-wide problem on the collective backs of peo-
ple selling their home.
And heres the kicker: Belmont is the only city in San
Mateo County that is not being forced by litigation to
enact this requirement. Aside from the implications to pri-
vate property rights, it puts a city-wide problem on the
shoulders of a small segment of the population. Is that
equitable?
Whether Belmonts sewer lateral systems are sufficient
is an issue that impacts the entire community. And thus far,
smoke testing of the system has turned up a few major
remediation problems. Ensuring the quality of the sewer
lateral systems throughout Belmont is an important health
and safety issue, so the solution should also be city-wide
in scope.
Further, point-of-sale requirements are highly ineffi-
cient. As of the most recent annual figures (2012), the
property turnover rate in Belmont was 2.3 percent
(throughout the county, the average was 2 percent per
year). Meaning 2.3 percent of the housing stock was sold
every year. Translation: It will take approximately 44
years to address the sewer lateral issue if the city waits
until the point-of-sale to achieve the inspections and/or
repairs.
Another concern for residents is the impact of point-of-
sale mandates on the transaction itself. In our current eco-
nomic climate, there are a number of short sales and real
estate-owned transactions that, for a number of reasons,
require an expedited processing (most commonly to stave
off foreclosure).
These point-of-sale mandates have caused delays or out-
right voiding of a transaction because the last minute costs
are added to already negotiated sale which the lender may
or may not approve. How often has it happened in
Belmont? Isnt one family that could lose their opportuni-
ty to become a first time home owner enough? Or do we
need a metaphorical road littered with such broken trans-
actions and ultimately foreclosures?
Belmont already has a proposal in place to upgrade of
the treatment, disposal and control of its sewer/wastewater
and related systems without using a point-of-sale mandate.
The City Council should adopt that recommendation to
underscore to its residents that home ownership matters. If
not, what other city service (for which you already pay
property taxes) will become your responsibility?

Big movers

Strong earnings from big U.S. com-
panies pushed the Dow Jones industri-
al average to a rare triple-digit gain
Friday, but the S&P 500 index still
posted its first weekly loss of the year.
Hewlett-Packard had the biggest
gain in the Dow and the Standard &
Poors 500 index. It posted fiscal first-
quarter earnings late Thursday that
beat all forecasts, a relief after months
of bad news for the computer maker.
H-P rose $2.10, or 12.3 percent, to
$19.20.
Cabot Oil & Gas Corp. was the S&P
500s second-best performer, jumping
a day after reporting earnings that beat
analysts expectations. It rose $5.95, or
11.1 percent, to $59.81.
American International Group Inc.
rose after its fourth-quarter operating
results exceeded analysts forecasts.
The companys net loss was $4 billion,
mainly because of claims related to
Superstorm Sandy, in the first full
quarter after it finished repaying its
$182 billion government bailout. AIG
rose $1.17, or 3.1 percent, to $38.45.
The Dow closed up 119.95 points, or
0.9 percent, at 14,000.57 its third-
biggest gain this year. The S&P 500
rose 13.18 points, also 0.9 percent, to
1,515.60. The Nasdaq composite index
rose 30.33, or 1 percent, to 3,161.82.
The S&P 500 and Nasdaq closed
slightly lower for the week, while the
Dow edged higher.
Bill Stone, chief investment strate-
gist with PNC Wealth Management,
said he expects stocks to hold up
despite this weeks volatility.
Youre going to get bumps and
bruises along the way, but we do
believe things are actually getting bet-
ter, so I think theres underlying
demand for stocks, Stone said.
Spooked investors sent stocks plung-
ing Wednesday after minutes from the
Federal Reserves latest policy meet-
ing revealed disagreement over how
long to keep buying bonds in an effort
to boost the economy. The slide con-
tinued Thursday. The Dow lost 155
points over those two days.
Many analysts say the Feds bond-
buying and resulting low interest rates
have driven this years stock rally,
which lifted indexes to their highest
levels since before the 2008 financial
crisis. The Dow is now just 164 points
below its record close of 14,164
reached in October 2007.
U.S. stocks followed European
stocks higher after a survey of German
business optimism rose sharply,
adding to evidence that the country
will avoid a recession. Germanys eco-
nomic vitality is crucial for the belea-
guered region, offsetting economic
contraction in surrounding countries.
Germany is really the bedrock,
Stone said. If it gives way, then you
have real problems.
Frances CAC-40 closed up 2.2 per-
cent, Germanys DAX 1 percent.

NEW YORK Help wanted.
Qualications: Must already have a job.
Its a frustrating catch for those out of work
in an era of high unemployment: looking for
a job, only to nd that some employers dont
want anyone who doesnt already have one.
But after four years of above-average job-
lessness in the U.S., efforts to bar such prac-
tices by employers have met with mixed
results.
While New Jersey, Oregon and
Washington, D.C., have passed laws mak-
ing it illegal to discriminate against the
unemployed, New York Citys billionaire-
businessman mayor vetoed on Friday what
would have been the most aggressive such
measure in the country. Similar proposals
have stalled in more than a dozen other
states and Congress.
Advocates for the unemployed say such
hiring practices are unfair, particularly to
those who have been laid off because of the
economic crunch and not through any fault of
their own. Businesses, though, say that the
extent of such practices is exaggerated, hiring
decisions are too complicated to legislate,
and employers could end up defending them-
selves against dubious complaints.
Nationally, more than 1 in 3 unemployed
workers has been looking for at least six
months, according to the federal Bureau of
Labor Statistics.
Janet Falk said that when she applied for a
public-relations job at a New York law rm
two years ago, the recruiter told her she
wouldnt be considered because she had been
out of work for more than three months. The
recruiter was being paid to nd candidates
who were in jobs or just out of them.
My personal view is that hiring is like
musical chairs, and if only the people who
are already on the dance oor are playing,
then the long-term unemployed cant get in
the game, said Falk, who was laid off four
years ago. She now runs her own consulting
business.
An October 2011 search of New York City-
based job listings found more than a dozen
that explicitly required candidates to be
employed, Manhattan Borough President
Scott Stringers ofce said. A broader review
that year by the National Employment Law
Project found 150 ads that were restricted to
or aimed at people currently working.
As for why, experts say employers may
think that unemployed applicants skills have
atrophied, that they lost their jobs because of
their own shortcomings, or that they will
jump at any job offer and then leave as soon
as something better comes along.
But dont apply, dont even try is the
opposite of American values, New York City
Council Speaker Christine Quinn said when
the measure passed last month. She said
Friday that she expects the City Council will
override Mayor Michael Bloombergs veto
within a month.
Bloomberg called the measure a well-
intended but misguided effort that would cre-
ate more lawsuits than jobs.
Hiring decisions frequently involve the
exercise of independent, subjective judgment
about a prospective employees likely future
performance, he said in a statement.
And unlike other characteristics that
employers are generally banned from consid-
ering, such as an applicants race, religion or
gender, the circumstances surrounding a
persons unemployment status may, in certain
situations, be relevant to employers when
selecting qualied employees, he said.
Unemployed complain they need a job to find a job

NEW YORK A federal judge is blocking
Apple from conducting a shareholder vote on
a package of governance proposals, handing a
victory to a rebel investor who is trying to per-
suade the company to share more of its cash
with its investors.
U.S. District Judge Richard Sullivan in New
York ruled Friday that Apple Inc. was wrong
to bundle four amendments to its corporate
charter into one proposal for a vote at next
Wednesdays annual meeting. Shareholders
should get to vote on the amendments sepa-
rately, he said. Although the ruling was pre-
liminary, before both sides had a chance to
fully make their case, Sullivan said Apple was
likely to lose. He granted dissident investors a
preliminary injunction against Apple pending
a full trial.
Apple will comply with Sullivans order and
withdraw the issue from the agenda of next
weeks meeting, said Steve Dowling, a
spokesman for the Cupertino, Calif., compa-
ny. It had appeared on the shareholder voting
list as proposal No. 2.
We are disappointed with the courts rul-
ing, Dowling said. Proposal No. 2 is part of
our efforts to further enhance corporate gover-
nance and serve our shareholders best inter-
ests.
Greenlight Capital, a hedge fund run by
Wall Street maverick David Einhorn, sued
Apple over the proposal because it would
remove the boards ability to issue preferred
stock without shareholder authorization.
Einhorn wants Apple to issue iPrefs, pre-
ferred shares with a guaranteed dividend, as a
way of committing the company to sharing its
massive prots with shareholders.
Einhorn has been trying to rally Wall Street
to vote against the Apple proposal as a way of
showing their displeasure with the companys
capital-allocation policies. Right now, Apple
hands only a small amount of its prots to
shareholders through dividends and stock buy-
backs.
Boeing proposes battery fix for 787s
WASHINGTON Boeing attempted a
major step Friday toward getting its 787
Dreamliners ying again, proposing a x for
the planes troubled batteries that could allow
the ights to resume as early as April, con-
gressional ofcials said.
The next question is whether the Federal
Aviation Administration will agree to let the
planes y even though the root cause of a bat-
tery re in one plane and a smoking battery in
another is still unknown.
A Boeing team led by CEO Ray Conner
presented the plan to Federal Aviation
Administration head Michael Huerta. The air-
liners, Boeings newest and most technologi-
cally advanced, have not been allowed to y
since mid-January.
The plan a long-term solution, rather
than a temporary x calls for revamping
the aircrafts two lithium ion batteries to
ensure that any short-circuiting that could lead
to a re wont spread from one battery cell to
the others, officials said. That would be
achieved by placing more robust ceramic insu-
lation around each of the batterys eight cells.
The aim is to contain not only the short-cir-
cuiting, but any thermal runaway, a chemical
reaction that leads to progressively hotter tem-
peratures.
Wireless show expected
to draw crowds to Barcelona
When the top executives of the worlds
wireless industry gather next week in
Barcelona for their annual trade show, cell-
phones will take a back seat to talk of cars,
electric meters and insulin monitors.
That idea of empowering new devices with
wireless connections has been percolating for
years. General Motors cars have had wireless
OnStar connections for more than a decade.
But the push is intensifying now that most
people have cellphones and the wireless
industrys future growth depends on it. That
means the GSM Mobile World Congress, the
telecommunications industrys largest annual
trade show, will be abuzz with discussion of
devices like smart meters that report a
homes usage of electricity, natural gas or
water back to the utility, and to your phone.
Youll see more things that are today
things versus tomorrow things at the show,
said Glenn Lurie, AT&Ts president of
emerging devices.
AT&Ts CEO Randall Stephenson will
speak at the show, which runs Monday
through Thursday.

Serra outlasts El Camino

SANTA CLARA The game of basketball
is all about matchups. If a team can keep an
opponent in front of them and challenge shots
consistently, it has a good chance of winning.
El Camino, the No. 7 in the Central Coast
Section new Open Division, matched up well
with No. 2 Serra for most of the game. But
foul trouble for the Colts, plus a reinvigorated
Padres squad in the second half equaled a
tough 74-66 win for Serra Friday night at
Santa Clara High School.
In the rst half, we were able to keep our
matchups, said El Camino coach Archie
Junio. In the second half, with foul problems,
we had to change matchups and it changed the
game a little bit.
You have to keep your best players on the

Guerrero says Mayweather has flaws
By Greg Becham
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Robert Guerrero has been calling out Floyd
Mayweather Jr. since he was an obscure, skin-
ny 135-pounder with no logical chance of get-
ting a ght with boxings pound-for-pound
champion.
Guerrero nally landed the bout he craved
this week, and hes already
got plenty more to say
about his chances.
Guerrero says
Mayweather is declining,
and he intends to exploit
the aws of the sports top
money-maker in their May
4 meeting at the MGM
Grand Garden in Las
Vegas.
I see a lot of slippage,
Guerrero said in a phone interview. I see him
slowing down, as far as his legs not being as
quick as they used to be.
Bold words are no surprise from Guerrero
(31-1-1, 18 KOs), the talkative former feather-
weight champion from Gilroy, Calif., who has
even more old-school boxing bravado than
Mayweather, whose interest in trash talk has
faded in recent years.
When asked if Mayweather was the best
ghter in boxing, Guerrero was blunt: In my
eyes, no.
Theres just so many ghters out there that
he hasnt fought, and he was picking and
choosing ghts, Guerrero said. Thats why
Im excited that Im in the position Im in,
earning the spot where he actually is going to
ght somebody whos earned it.
Guerrero betrays no fear of Mayweather,
who hand-picked the challenger for their wel-
terweight title bout in his debut on Showtime.
Guerrero thinks the champion doesnt realize
what hes facing, and he also expects
Mayweather to be ghting
rust after a year away from
the ring, including a two-
month stint in jail.
Denitely, hes ripe for
the picking, Guerrero
said. You know, hes
been out for a year. ... He
is sharp in the ring. He
puts more pressure on
guys. I think that has to do
with him not being able to
move as good on his legs, where people think,
Oh, hes changed his style. But I just think
that when you get older and your legs start to
go, you have to change direction.
Guerrero realizes hes the presumptive vic-
tim for the rst bout of Mayweathers lucra-
tive six-ght contract with Showtime over the
next 30 months. Mayweather opened as a
heavy favorite in Las Vegas sports books.
If people bet on me, theyre going to make
a lot of money, so I suggest they do, Guerrero
said. I was put in this position not only to
humble the boxing world, but to humble
Floyd Mayweather. I have a lot of faith that
Im going to go in there and dominate this
ght.
Although Mayweather doesnt talk trash the
way he once did, at least he nally has an
opponent who wont rely on Mayweather to
do most of the heavy lifting in promotion and
pre-ght interest. Guerreros condence could
play well on Showtime, which plans to show-
case Mayweather and his upcoming oppo-
nents in behind-the-scenes programming.
Outside the ring, hes best known for his
steadfast support of his wife, Casey, who sur-
vived a prolonged struggle with leukemia
while Guerrero was an up-and-coming ghter.
Any doubts about Guerreros ability to ght
at welterweight evaporated when he returned
from a 15-month ring absence following
shoulder surgery last year. Guerrero jumped
up two weight classes to 147 pounds to beat
Selcuk Aydin last July and in November, he
won a decision over former welterweight
champion Andre Berto in one of last years
most exciting ghts.
(Mayweather) is a way smarter ghter than
Berto, than Aydin, Guerrero said. Strength-
wise, I feel hes not as strong as either one of
them. I think Berto is a lot faster, but the one
thing that carries Floyd Mayweather through
is his elegance in the ring. His intelligence,
being able to change angles. Thats what gets
him through the day.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON The Justice Department
joined a lawsuit Friday against disgraced
cyclist Lance Armstrong that alleges the for-
mer seven-time Tour de France champion con-
cealed his use of performance-enhancing
drugs and defrauded his longtime sponsor, the
U.S. Postal Service.
The lawsuit alleges that riders on the postal
service-sponsored team, including Armstrong,
knowingly violated their
postal service agreements
by regularly using banned
substances and methods
to enhance their perform-
ance.
Lance Armstrong and
his cycling team took
more than $30 million
from the U.S. Postal
Service based on their
contractual promise to
play fair and abide by the rules including
the rules against doping, said U.S. Attorney
Ronald Machen, whose ofce is handling the
case. The Postal Service has now seen its
sponsorship unfairly associated with what has
been described as the most sophisticated,
professionalized and successful doping pro-
gram that sport has ever seen.
In recent weeks, settlement discussions had
been under way between the Justice
Department and Armstrongs lawyers.
A person familiar with the negotiations said
Friday the two sides are tens of millions of
dollars apart on how much Armstrong should
pay to settle the case.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. Madison
Bumgarner will follow Matt Cain in San
Franciscos starting rotation, though Giants
manager Bruce Bochy says there will likely
be some shufing before
the end of spring camp.
We can still tweak it,
Bochy said Friday. Ill
keep saying that when I
look at all ve starters,
they are all so balanced.
Ryan Vogelsong starts
Saturdays exhibition
opener against a visiting
split squad of Los Angeles
Angels. Cain will take the
ball Sunday, followed by Bumgarner, Tim
Lincecum and Barry Zito.
Zito will start for the World Series champi-
ons in their regular-season home opener, with
Vogelsong to pitch out of the fth spot.
I havent really announced that yet,
Bochy said. At the end of the year, knock on
wood they all stay healthy, theyll get the
same amount of starts. Its not who is No. 1 or
who follows who. Each one of these guys
gives us a chance to win every time they take
the mound. I dont want them to get caught up
in this.
Lincecum, the two-time Cy Young Award
winner who made the previous four opening
day starts, is happy with the arrangement and
glad for the opportunity to pitch in the sea-
sons opening series in Los Angeles.
Im denitely excited to get out there again
and throw against them, Lincecum said.
That rivalry is so huge and the Dodgers went
out and made themselves better too. I enjoy
throwing at the Los Angeles Dodger blue, and
not necessarily at the name on the back.
Lincecum is coming off the worst of his six
major league seasons. He was 10-15 with a
5.18 ERA, which jumped his career ERA to
3.31.
Despite being taken out of the rotation for
the postseason, Lincecum managed to make
his mark, going 1-1 with a 2.55 ERA in six
appearances, including one start.
Zito won 15 games for the Giants last year,
including six in a row. He also threw his rst
shutout in nine years. All of which prompted
Bochy to give him the home opener.
With the year he had and some of things
hes been through, Im sure it would mean a
lot to him, Bochy said.
San Francisco trades
Conor Gillaspie to White Sox
The San Francisco Giants have traded third
baseman Conor Gillaspie to the Chicago
White Sox for minor league pitcher Jeff
Soptic.
The 25-year-old Gillaspie spent parts of
three seasons with the Giants, hitting .205
with a home run and four RBIs in 29 games
and 44 at-bats.
San Francisco selected Gillaspie with the
37th overall pick in the 2008 amateur draft
from Wichita State. He made his major league
debut that Sept. 9.
Soptic, a 21-year-old right-handed reliever,
was 3-2 with an ERA of 5.40 with Class A
Kannapolis last year. Chicago took him in the
third round of the 2011 amateur draft out of
Johnson County Community College in
Overland Park, Kan.
With the trade of Gillaspie and the impend-
ing departure of Pablo Sandoval to the World
Baseball Classic, Bochy said he will turn to
Joaquin Arias, Brett Pill and minor leaguer
Adam Duvall to ll the position. Pill, an out-
elder-rst baseman, played third for one
inning last year, his only major league experi-
ence. He also played third at Cal State
Fullerton. Really its just a matter of getting
the arm strength back, Pill said. And I have
been taking ground balls at third.
Soptic, whom the Giants acquired in the
trade for Gillaspie, will report to the minor
league camp.

PRETORIA, South Africa Oscar
Pistorius walked out of court Friday free at
least for now after a South African magis-
trate released him on bail, capping four days
of often startling testimony that foreshadowed
a dramatic trial in the Valentines Day slaying
of his girlfriend.
But as he was driven away, chased by pho-
tographers and cameramen, questions contin-
ued to hound the double-amputee Olympian
about what actually happened the night he
gunned down Reeva Steenkamp inside a
locked bathroom in his home.
Pistorius is charged with premeditated mur-
der, and even Chief Magistrate Desmond Nair
expressed doubts about his story that he mis-
took the 29-year-old model for an intruder and
red out of fear.
Why would (Pistorius) venture further into
danger by going into the bathroom at all,
Nair asked.
Cries of Yes! went up from Pistorius sup-
porters when Nair announced his decision to a
packed courtroom after a nearly two-hour
explanation of the ruling.
Nair set bail at 1 million rand ($113,000).

CCS championships at Independence High School
CCS WHATS ON TAP
Melendezs backyard the HP
Pavilion in San Jose.
Its an honor, Melendez said of
the opportunity to hit the ground
running in the UFC. I feel like its
a great sign of respect from the UFC
to me. Whether the fans want to see
it that way or not, it feels that way to
me. Its denitely a lot of pressure
but I want this, Ive been waiting for
this my whole life. It also shows I
can carry a main event. I always
come out to ght and I just want to
show it. I take it as a compliment.
Im grateful and excited.
The entire MMA world is a buzz
over UFC on FOX 7 mainly
because itll answer the question
of Strikeforces legitimacy as a
MMA promotion. When
Strikeforce was bought out by the
UFC, Melendez was its light-
weight champion and had success-
fully defended his title four times.
A lot of people are saying either
Gilbert is the best in the world and
more than the other half says
Gilbert is a complete joke. Hes
never fought any talent. Hes not in
the UFC. Its one-sided, Melendez
said. Theres not really a middle
area. I think I represent all the other
ghters in that frame all the
internationals who have been out-
side the UFC brand.
Melendez fought through some
nagging injuries as Strikeforce was
folding but he said hes physically
ready for Henderson and that the
13-week notice was the longest hes
ever had to train for a ght. And
while the hometown attention lends
itself to various distractions, the
champion says they are a nonfactor
in his preparation.
Its something Ive been through,
its something Ive trained for,
Melendez said. I do pressure on
myself. On ght night, it is what it
is. Im lucky to have a lot of loved
ones who loved me before I was a
ghter. I feel like there is no pres-
sure walking in there. This doesnt
dene me as a person. I do what I
love.
In Henderson, Melendez faces a
ghter who won multiple Fighter
of the Year honors after going 3-0
in 2012, beginning with a victory
over Frankie Edgar to claim the
lightweight title. Henderson hasnt
lost since 2010, his last ght with
the WEC and is 6-0 as a UFC com-
petitor all his wins coming via
decision.
That said, Melendez believes his
experience will be a factor come
April.
As soon as I walk in the cage,
Im a different man, Melendez
said. Im a different man. Im
ready. Im focused. Nothing can
distract me. I just have condence in
myself ghting my ght. And I
just really want to keep the pressure
on him. I want to win the ght. I
dont want to keep it close. I need to
take the title from the champ. Im
looking to make it a ght, not a
point-sparing match.
coached over the years have done well and
have gone on and represented Mills well. I
think it reects that in a lot of ways. Im very
happy for Mills High School, to be at Mills
for the number of years that I have and to be
recognized.
Hanson has been the head coach at Mills
since 2003. Prior to that, he was the boys var-
sity coach at Aragon High School for three
years and an assistant basketball coach at
Mills for 10 seasons.
Rick clearly communicates the importance
of playing to the fullest potential without
relaying a win at all costs mentality, said
Mills Principal Paul Belzer via CCS press
release. Rick exemplies what I think is
most important about high school athletics; a
commitment to excellence through consistent
effort, teamwork and strategy.
Added Mills athletic director Tim Keller via
the same release: Rick has a work ethic that
is unquestionable. Not only does he know the
game itself, he demonstrates the ability to
teach the required skills that allow teams to
win. He has displayed the moral character and
commitment necessary to lead any high
school basketball program. Rick is a dedicat-
ed mentor who leads others by setting exam-
ples and assisting other coaches on staff to
make tough decisions. I am always condent
that Rick will produce a team that will have
great sportsmanship as well as show success
on and off the court.
In his tenure as head coach, Hanson has led
the Vikings to over 155 wins and a .600 win-
ning percentage. Mills is 9-8 under his watch
in the CCS playoffs with a couple of seminal
appearances. He said that 10 years in, he still
nds multiple sources of inspiration.
Certainly the kids that Im currently
coaching, Hanson said. But I also think the
basketball alumni at Mills is very important to
me and was very important to coach
Thompson, who was my mentor, not only in
basketball but in many ways, in life. And that
was always impressed up on, that coach
Thompson and even coach Smith before him,
took great care of keeping the alumni on cur-
rent news and if theres a chance for an alum-
ni that was prominent in a certain eld of
work, that we sometimes we try to align them
with a current player, help them out a little bit
and maybe give them some advice they can
look forward to help them on the journey
through life.
Mills continues its current basketball jour-
ney this Saturday as the No. 4 seed in
Division III.
Weve had some time off, he said. I think
its been good where weve been able to heal
physically. Weve improved as individuals
and as a team and were certainly looking for-
ward to the challenge.
Picchi has been coaching girls varsity bas-
ketball at Sequoia High School since 2006.
Before his tenure with the Cherokees, he
coached at Burlingame and Arroyo high
schools. He was also at Chabot College
(womens basketball), Notre Dame-Belmont
(varsity softball), the College of Notre Dame-
Belmont (basketball and volleyball) and Santa
Clara University (womens basketball and
volleyball).
From 1980-1988, Picchi coached at
Burlingame. The Panthers girls basketball
program had just been reinstated after several
years. For three consecutive years,
Burlingame played for the Division III CCS
championship and the culmination of the
eight-year run was a Division III state cham-
pionship in 1988. To this date, the 1988 team
remains the only public school team to run the
table and accomplish this feat. That team was
honored this year during Senior Night at
Burlingame. It happened to be the night the
Panthers clinched a share of the PAL South
title.
At the time of nomination, coaches must be
actively coaching and have been coaching
their respective sport for a minimum of ve
years at the varsity level.
The other two award winners were Jolene
Fugate of Valley Christian High School (girls
soccer) and J. Reggie Roberts of Aptos High
School (wrestling).

early in the third quarter and his fourth
early in the nal quarter. With Smith
having to tone down his aggressiveness,
the Padres took advantage. Especially
Henry Caruso, who was being guarded
by Smith. Caruso scored 11 in the rst
half and exploded for 19 in the second
half to nish with 30 points and it was
his play in the post that proved to be the
difference.
We got a couple of mismatches on
the block and we took advantage, said
Serra coach Chuck Rapp.
In addition to Caruso, Jacqui Biggins
nished with 23 points the only two
Padres to score in double gures.
While El Camino faded down the
stretch, everything was going the Colts
way in the opening 16 minutes. Noted
mostly for the play of Smith and point
guard Elijah White, the Colts got more
players involved in the rst and second
quarters, having six players in the scor-
ing column as El Camino led Serra 37-
30 at halftime. Smith and White, howev-
er, paced the Colts in the rst two quar-
ters, combining for 23 of the Colts 37
points.
Smith nished with a team-high 28
points, while White chipped in with 19.
Give El Camino credit. Those guys
(Smith and White) are hard covers,
Rapp said. The rst half was way too
easy. [Smith] hit a couple of easy shots,
then he hits the difcult shots.
Both Rapp and Caruso admitted the
Padres came out of the blocks rather
slowly and they paid the price as they
trailed at halftime.
We kind of came out at. We had a
strong second half, Caruso said. In the
rst half, it was real easy for them to get
into their offense. In the second half, we
didnt allow that.
Added Rapp: Everything felt a little
off. We have to play better. I thought our
rst 16 minutes lacked energy. That was
my emphasis at half.
In the second half, the Padres made a
concerted effort to be more aggressive.
They attacked the basket more consis-
tently and did a better job rebounding
the ball, out-rebounding the Colts 19-10
in the third and fourth quarters.
If we dont step it up (in the second
half), were going to lose, Caruso said.
We just wanted to keep attacking.
The shots werent really falling for
either team, but the Padres aggressive-
ness resulted in constant trips to the free
throw line. Serra had 25 free throws
attempts over the nal two quarters, con-
verting 22 of them. It was their free
throw shooting down the stretch that
kept the Colts at bay.
The second half was a lot better,
Rapp said. We had more intensity and
started battling.
Serra started the third quarter on a 10-
4 run to cut the Colts lead to 41-40 fol-
lowing a Biggins 3-pointers. El Camino
responded with back-to-back 3s from
Smith, sandwiched around a Caruso
bucket, as the Colts pushed their lead
back to ve, 47-42. But another 3 from
Biggins and a bucket from Matt Jajeh
tied the game at 47 with 1:23 left in the
third and the teams were tied at 49 going
into the fourth.
Biggins gave Serra a 51-49 early in the
nal period, but the Colts responded
with a 5-0 run to take a 54-51 advantage.
It would be their last lead of the night.
Carusos basket with 4:20 left tied the
game at 55 and his bucket on the Padres
next possession put the Padres ahead for
good, 57-55. Serra scored only one bas-
ket the rest of the way, but went 13 for
15 from the line over the nal 3:21 of the
game.
This is the Open Division. There are
no low seeds, Rapp said. You only get
one mulligan and this was it.
Despite the loss, the season is not over
for the Colts. Part of the allure of the
Open Division is the fact rst-round los-
ers move into a consolation bracket as
well as advance to the Northern
California tournament. That means the
Colts are assured of at least two more
games this season.
We get to play again, but we never
want to be happy with a loss, Junio
said.
Serra will play the winner of No. 6
Piedmont Hills and No. 3 Sacred Heart
Cathedral at a time to be determined
Wednesday. El Camino will face the
Piedmont Hills-SHC loser in a consola-
tion game Tuesday. Both game are at
Independence High School in San Jose.

Sports brief
Vonn ahead of schedule after knee surgery
Lindsey Vonns right knee is healing quicker than her feel-
ings over a world championship race she says should have
been called off.
The four-time overall World Cup cham-
pion remains unhappy about how she sus-
tained a season-ending injury two
shredded ligaments and a broken bone
at the world championships in
Schladming, Austria. She believes organ-
izers should have postponed the super-G
race on Feb. 5 because of deteriorating
course conditions.
In a conference call Friday, Vonn said
she did not think it was safe to race on
the soft snow and that athletes safety
should come rst.
I do not think the jury made the right call, said Vonn, who
underwent surgery to repair the ACL and MCL nearly two
weeks ago. It was denitely not safe to run with that fog.
The start of the super-G was delayed by 3 1/2 hours because
of fog hanging over the course. During that time, conditions
dramatically changed, said Vonn, who noted that she inspect-
ed the hill early in the morning.
Soon after her crash, Atle Skaardal, womens race director
for the International Ski Federation, defended the decision to
go ahead with the event, saying, I dont see that any outside
factors played a role in this accident.

Sharks scoring woes continue
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO The Chicago Blackhawks
set an NHL record for the best start to a sea-
son, beating the San Jose Sharks 2-1 on
Friday night to give them at least one point
in their rst 17 games.
Blackhawks rookie Brandon Saad scored
a short-handed goal early in the third period
to snap a 1-all tie. Chicago (14-0-3) won its
fourth straight game to break a mark set by
the 2006-07 Anaheim Ducks, who earned
points in their rst 16 games.
The Blackhawks equaled that run
Tuesday with a shootout win over
Vancouver.
Saad closed in on the left wing one-on-
one with San Jose defenseman Brent Burns.
After a quick fake, Saad red a shot from
the circle that beat San Joses Antti Niemi
just under the glove 2:24 into the period.
Viktor Stalberg also scored for league-
leading Chicago, which has captured a total
of 31 of 34 possible points.
Blackhawks goalie Ray Emery made 26
saves to win his fourth straight start and
improve to 7-0. Chicago killed all four San
Jose power plays, all of which occurred in a
span of under 14 minutes late in the second
and early in the third periods.
Patrick Marleau scored for the Sharks,
getting only his second goal in 11 games
after getting nine in San Joses rst ve
games.
Both Emery and Niemi were sharp
throughout most of the game. But a misplay
by Niemi led to Stalbergs goal at 16:40 of
the second period, and he seemed fooled on
Saads score. Niemi stopped 32 shots.

Many parents claim theyre too busy raising
their kids to stop and read a book about how to
do it better. Bruce Feiler, who has a full plate
as a successful writer and dad of two, decided
to make improving family life his business in
his new book, The Secrets of Happy
Families.
The scene at
Feilers house, with
his working wife
and now 8-year-old
twin daughters, is
similar to most fam-
ilies: active and
stressful. Feilers
goal was to put out
a playbook for
happy families to
make life more ef-
cient, relaxed and
fun.
But instead of seeking advice from tradi-
tional sources, he consulted people at the top
of their game in business, technology, sports
and the military about innovative ideas they
take from the boardroom to the playroom.
The best-selling author is known for tack-
ling tough issues, including family, mortality
and faith, and making them accessible to read-
ers. In this book, he offers useful advice on
everything from weekly allowances to road
trip games to sex talks. But its Feilers unique
perspective and voice that sets it apart from
other work in both the parenting and happi-
ness genres.
The book is organized and easy to digest.

Our Practical Heaven falls short of promise

By Judy Richter
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Three generations of women celebrate
holidays at the familys coastal cottage,
watch birds, bicker and look ahead in
Anthony Clarvoes Our Practical
Heaven, being given its world premiere
by Berkeleys Aurora Theatre Company.
Clarvoes two-act play is the main stage
anchor production of Auroras eighth
annual Global Age Project, which fosters
21st century play development.
It features excellent acting thanks to
such Bay Area treasures as Joy Carlin,
who plays Vera, the familys widowed
matriarch; Anne Darragh, who plays
Sasha, Veras daughter; and Julia
Brothers, who plays Willa, whom Sasha
considers an honorary sister.
With them are three young up-and-
comers: Blythe Foster as Suze and
Adrienne Walters as Leez, Sashas daugh-
ters; and Lauren Spencer as Magz,
Willas daughter.
Perhaps because Sasha is so uptight,
her daughters dont especially like her.
While sitting next to each other, they
communicate their feelings about her via
text messages, which are projected onto
the back of Mikiko Uesugis set.
Willa, who overcame lowly beginnings
to become a successful businesswoman,
is mostly level-headed, but shes deeply
concerned about Magz, who has an
autoimmune disorder that often leaves
her in severe pain.
Despite the excellent acting and Allen
McKelveys direction, the play can feel
vague at times. It needs more background
to help the audience understand why
some of characters are the way they are.
Some details seem sketchy, as do issues
like the threat of global warming.
Still, there are some lovely scenes,
especially the one in which Carlins Vera
talks to Leez about the specialized func-
tions of feathers she has collected.
The play went through much work after
being given a reading as part of the 2011
Global Age Project. Some more work is
needed for it to reach its full promise.
Our Practical Heaven will continue
at Aurora Theatre Company through
March 3. For tickets and information call

Crysis 3 (Electronic Arts,

3, PC, $59.99) is a gorgeous
game. Its creator, the German
studio Crytek, has lived up to
its promises that it will set a
new benchmark for computer
graphics. On a state-of-the-art
PC, its spectacular.
You probably dont have a
state-of-the-art PC, but thats
OK. I played Crysis 3 on
Microsofts eight-year-old
Xbox 360, and it still looks
pretty good. If only all that
beauty was in the service of
something more interesting
than another alien bloodbath.
Actually, Crysis 3 throws
two types of enemies at you:
the alien Ceph and the human
employees of CELL, a corpo-
ration that has built a giant
dome over the ruins of New
York City. As a supersoldier
nicknamed Prophet, your

job is to get inside the Liberty Dome and g-
ure out what CELL is up to.
Prophet is equipped with a nanosuit, a
combination of human and alien tech that has
two primary functions, armor and cloaking. If
youre the kind of player who likes to plunge
right into reghts, youll keep turning on the
armor. If youd rather avoid attracting atten-
tion from the Ceph, you can hit the cloaking
switch for temporary invisibility.
The nanosuits other major feature is a visor
that lets you scope out the battleeld before
you rush in, pinpointing enemies as well as
locating ammunition dumps and fresh
weapons. The visor also helps you hack
enemy systems, so you can disarm mineelds
or turn turrets against their builders.
Of course, Prophet has the usual assortment
of rearms at hand, from pistols and sniper
ries to assault weapons and missile launch-
ers. You can also pick up Ceph plasma
weapons, which are somewhat more effective
at obliterating the aliens. The silent-but-dead-
ly Predator bow is a little clunkier, but it does
let you remain cloaked even while youre
shooting electried arrows.
All this takes place in a New York City that
will be unrecognizable to anyone who lives
there now. Familiar neighborhoods like
Chinatown and Hells Kitchen are ooded or
overgrown with vegetation, and there are only
a few glimpses of landmarks like the
Brooklyn Bridge. Right in the middle of the
whole thing is a hydroelectric dam, which
makes one wonder: Why is this set in New
York?
Its a shame, too, that the story is so cliched.
I dont think Im giving anything away by
revealing that theres a connection between
CELL and the Ceph, and other plot twists are
so baldly telegraphed that the only surprise is
how long it takes the characters to gure them
out. And it wraps up with a desperately
tedious boss ght that makes some of the best
tools in Prophets arsenal useless.
Fortunately, Crysis 3 comes with a robust
assortment of multiplayer games. There are
the expected variations on deathmatch, cap-
ture-the-ag and king-of-the-hill, but the real
standout is Hunter. Its a clever game of
hide-and-seek in which nanosuit-clad hunters
pursue less powerful CELL guards; any guard
that gets killed joins the hunters. The suspense
is excruciating.
For fans of rst-person shooters, the solid
online action may be enough to make Crysis
3 a worthwhile purchase. If youre a PC
gamer who wants to show off your new graph-
ics card, its probably essential. But if youre
looking for a fresh approach to video-game
science ction, you wont nd it here. Two
stars out of four.

takes on a new family challenge, including
sharing meals, tackling difcult conversa-
tions, creating a more functional and com-
fortable home, and managing extended fami-
ly.
Feiler will win readers from the get-go
when he says the nearly 200 books he read by
child-rearing experts and therapists were
dated and out of touch with the reality of
modern families.
His healthy mix of enthusiasm and skepti-
cism for the solutions he uncovers instills
trust in the reader. In each chapter, Feiler test-
drives the methods he presents on his own
family. Not afraid to admit their failures, his
stories are relatable and infused with humor
and authenticity.
Feiler takes his research duties seriously,
offering many studies, references and view-
points to back up his arguments. The most
compelling groundwork is when he visits
several families and examines their homes,
joins them for meals and even attends a soc-
cer game all to see theories put into action.
Some of the books best advice is simple,
yet routinely neglected by many families.
Feiler says their weekly family meetings
modeled after sit-downs at many giant com-
panies became the single most impactful
idea they introduced since their kids were
born. His family also created a mission state-
ment to sum up their priorities, goals and
dreams, and posted it in a visible spot at
home.
The chapter heading on sports, titled Shut
Up and Cheer, says it all. Examining this
countrys obsession with kids sports, Feiler
discusses the importance of parents staying
neutral and supportive, suggesting that con-
trolling, emotional parents can zap all the joy
and life lessons out of sports.

CHINAS TERRACOTTA WARRIORS
STAND GUARD AT THE ASIAN ART
MUSEUM IN SAN FRANCISCO. 8,000
soldiers in an underground city, guarding an
emperor through eternity. The First Chinese
Emperor, Qin Shihuang (259-210 B.C.), left
a rich legacy with enduring achievements,
including the unification of China under cen-
tralized imperial rule, brilliant military sys-
tems and assembly production, but his driv-
ing purpose was even greater: He sought to
conquer death. In order to achieve immortal-
ity, he built for his tomb a vast underground
city guarded by a life-size terracotta army
including 8,000 warriors, infantrymen and
horses, along with chariots and 10,000
pieces of attendant armor and weaponry. The
First Emperor envisioned a subterranean
domain that would parallel his worldly exis-
tence after his corporeal death. First
unearthed in 1974, the underground burial
complex is a revelation on par with Egypts
mummies and elaborate tombs. San
Franciscos Asian Art Museum now hosts
Chinas Terracotta Warriors: The First
Emperors Legacy, an exhibition that
includes 10 of these soldiers the maxi-
mum number permitted outside China in a
single exhibition along with life-size
horses, large scale chariots and 110 other
recovered items. The soldiers and horses are
displayed without glass barricades, so visi-
tors can see them up close and be amazed.
Jay Xu, director of the Asian Art Museum,
said: In 1994, the Asian Art Museum, then
located in Golden Gate Park, was among the
rst institutions to present the terracotta war-
riors to a U.S. audience. The 2013 exhibition
offers a new generation the rare chance to
view the gures up close. Visitors will also
discover new secrets from the tomb complex,
all lending vivid detail to this fascinating
story of the First Emperors reign and his
quest for immortality.
The entire rst oor of the museum is ded-
icated to the exhibit. A multi-media tour may
be rented at the museum or downloaded for
free at www.asianart.org. The museums rst-
ever iOS app offers visitors a 3-D augmented
reality experience of several of the exhibition
objects.
TAKE A WARRIOR HOME: During the
run of Chinas Terracotta Warriors, the muse-
um store offers 5 foot tall terracotta gures
depicting three of the many forms found in
the burial mound. These replicas, works of art
in their own right, are created in Beijing by
the Zhang family of artisans. The clay used by
Mr. Zhang and his family is actually sourced
from the Xian region of China and brought to
Beijing. Huge chunks of raw coal are heated
and placed underground to create a drying
room before the kilnfairly traditional and
very hands-on. For those who would like to
do it themselves, the shop has Excavation
Kits. These are great for kids, but also for
adults who want to practice their archeology
skills. Blocks of plaster encase small warriors,
its up to you to play archaeologist.

December that he was conducting his
own investigation. Those same records
also indicated that investigators recov-
ered more than 400 pornographic
images from a USB drive and laptop and
that Forrest, when confronted by
Sheriffs deputies in December, tried to
kill himself on the steps of a San Mateo
church. He was placed on a psychiatric
hold but later released and had been free
from custody until surrendering Friday
morning.
The investigation into Forrests
alleged conduct involved several agen-
cies, with the U.S. Postal Service taking
the lead because it may have involved
material sent through the mail.
Although Forrest reportedly had hun-
dreds of illegal images, the law typically
allows a person only to be charged for
each incident of possession rather than
the total number of photographs or
videos. The Feb. 21 complaint led by
the state Attorney Generals Office,
alleges that Forrest possessed child
pornography once on Dec. 20 and anoth-
er Dec. 21.
Following the search by federal agents
of Forrests ofce at the Youth Services
Center, he was placed on administrative
leave. Ten days later, Forrest resigned by
having a family member deliver paper-
work to the county while reportedly he
was still hospitalized.
Forrest joined the Probation
Department in 1977 and after assign-
ments, including time at the juvenile
hall, moved to adult services. He was
appointed chief in 2009 following the
retirement of former chief Loren
Buddress. The Probation Department
has a $76 million budget, approximately
400 employees and is the lead agency in
implementing state inmate realignment.
The chief is appointed by the San
Mateo County Superior Court.
Although Forrests case is being heard
in the local court, the state Attorney
Generals Ofce is prosecuting and an
outside judge will oversee proceedings.
Meanwhile, San Mateo County is
working with the Attorney Generals
Ofce to ensure that no images of chil-
dren in the custody or care of San Mateo
County are among the evidence, said
county spokesman Marshall Wilson.
Wilson said ofcials are also looking
at the criminal complaint and any other
evidence as the case progresses to see if
any further steps are necessary or if any
probation employees may have wit-
nessed any behavior that should have
been reported to authorities.

Californians, however, are used to
seeing a hefty price at the pump and
might be resigned to paying $4 or more
for a gallon of gas.
Weve done this before, said Auto
Club spokeswoman Marie
Montgomery. Its definitely not good
for consumers.
Last year, for instance, Californians
were paying more than $4 a gallon, but
there was a slower rise in prices.
Prices in Southern California now
nearly match the highest cost for a gal-
lon in the nation, which can be found
on Maui. The average price of regular
gasoline in the Los Angeles area was
$4.316 per gallon Friday; the price in
Wailuku, Hawaii, was $4.399.
The price in Los Angeles is 11.3
cents more than last week and 57 cents
higher than last month. In San Diego,
the average price is $4.285, which is an
increase of 10.2 cents from last week
and 58 cents from last month.
In San Francisco, the price is $4.22.
A week ago, it was $4.08. That price
has gone up 56 cents from a month
ago.
Montgomery said she bought gas
Thursday, and even after a discount,
she paid $4.08 per gallon.
And I should be happy with that?
she said, laughing. Its frustrating.

mammal on the planet at up to 98 feet
long was swimming right at his boat.
As it went by, Mattusch looked down at
a blowhole that could easily t a ve-
gallon bucket, he said.
It was just utterly amazing, he said.
On another visit by a pilot whale, he
found himself looking into a softball-
sized eye.
You could see all the bloodshot veins
and everything, he said. This is real
nature, not TV nature.
Mattusch, who has been boating out of
Pillar Point Harbor since 1990, says the
ocean can provide some clues as to
where the underwater giants may be.
Where the salmon are, the whales, which
eat the same food, are often close by.
Birds will hover over a whale that is
about to breach the surface with a
mouthful of seafood.
Aboard the Huli Cat, which can carry
about 34 people, Mattusch used to carry
tattered folders of pictures showing the
different shapes of the spouts each
whale makes. The silhouette of the spout
is one way he identies the type of
whale from afar, as whale watching
boats are supposed to stay at least 100
yards from the animals.
With knowledge of how often each
whale must come up for air, Mattusch
can also determine how many whales he
is seeing. If he sees several spouts close
together, he can tell his passengers that
they are seeing not one, but a group
whales swimming next to each other.
Watching a mother-calf combination
is entertaining because the calf will act
like a spastic teenager alongside its
graceful mother, said Mattusch.
Gray whale migration
This time of year, gray whales are
migrating between the polar waters of
Alaska and the warm lagoons in Baja
California. This movement creates a
spectacle for eager whale watchers boat-
ing out of Half Moon Bay.
We are on the gray whale highway,
said Izzy Szczepaniak, a marine biolo-
gist who leads whale-watching tours for
the Bay Area-based Oceanic Society.
According to Szczepaniak, February
marks the end of the gray whale popula-
tions southward migration to Baja
where breeding and birthing occur
and also the beginnings of the migration
back to the northern feeding grounds.
We have the opportunity to see them
going both directions, he said.
Right now, it is not unusual to see a
couple moms and a couple calves
together, he said.
Seeing whales a gamble
Without high-tech equipment aboard
the Salty Lady, which can hold up to 48
people, guring out where the whales
are is often dependent upon if any other
boaters have spotted whales that day.
On a recent outing, Szczepaniaks
group was not able catch a glimpse of a
whale. On the other hand, another group
did see a whale two days later, he said.
With or without whale sightings, the
sea provides plenty of activity, including
sea otters, sea lions, harbor porpoises
and seals.
This is a rich area, he said. We can
see 35 species of marine mammals
between Point Reyes and Monterey
Bay.
Gray whale activity in the area ends
around May, which is just when blue and
humpback whales begin to make appear-
ances.
We are really fortunate because
where we live we can see whales all year
round, he said.
Determining the age of a gray whale
which has brush-like baleen instead
of teeth can be difcult. Some scien-
tists are able to look at the layers of ear-
wax and count them like rings on a tree,
one layer per year, said Szczepaniak.
Gray whales have about the same
lifespan as humans, he said.

If you go
kinds of arbitrary, automatic cuts would
have an adverse impact on families, on
teachers, on parents who are reliant on
Head Start programs, on our military
readiness, on mental health services, on
medical research, Obama said Friday.
This is not a smart way for us to reduce
the decit.
Just in case those consequences didnt
capture the publics attention, the White
House also had Transportation Secretary
Ray LaHood spell out the impact on
travelers, a frequent-ier nightmare of
90-minute airport waits, limited ights
and closed regional airports.
LaHood said the cuts would require
slicing more than $600 million from the
Federal Aviation Administration, result-
ing in furloughs of one day per pay peri-
od for a majority of the agencys 47,000
employees.
Once airlines see the potential impact
of these furloughs, we expect that they
will change their schedules and cancel
ights, LaHood said.
Moreover, he said, the Transportation
Department is looking to likely close
air trafc control towers at 100 airports
that have fewer than 150,000 ight oper-
ations per year.
Were talking about places like Boca
Raton, Fla.; Joplin, Mo.; Hilton Head,
S.C.; and San Marcos, Texas, he said.
All in all, nearly two-thirds of the air-
ports are concentrated in three states
California, Florida and Texas.
In a statement, Airlines for America,
an industry group, said the organization,
the FAA and airline carriers would be
meeting soon to plan for potential cut-
backs. Air transportation is a key driver
of our economy, and should not be used
as a political football, the statement
said.
Paul Rinaldi, the president of the
National Air Traffic Controllers
Association, said the reductions will not
just inconvenience passengers, it will
also affect local economies and result in
more lost jobs. The fact that they will
not just be furloughing critical FAA per-
sonnel but closing air trafc control tow-
ers means the system will be even more
compromised than anticipated, he
added.
Throughout the administration,
agency heads have been depicting an
onerous after-effect to the cuts. The fed-
eral government is required to spell out
the consequences to federal workers, but
the details are also designed to warn
lawmakers that the cuts could have a
fearsome result: angry constituents.
Some of the warnings:
Defense Secretary Leon Panetta
last week said that automatic cuts,
known in Washington budget language
as a sequester, would harm the readiness
of U.S. ghting forces and he said the
vast majority of the Defense
Departments 800,000 civilian workers
would have to lose one day of work per
week, or 20 percent of their pay, for up
to 22 weeks, probably starting in late
April.

PisCEs (Feb. 20-March 20) -- If you have a bad
attitude, unplanned developments could become
overwhelming. Try to roll with the punches and hope
for the best.
AriEs (March 21-April 19) -- There is a strong
chance that you could run into one of your least
favorite people at a social gathering. If you allow
your dislike to surface, the event is likely to lose its
luster.
TAUrUs (April 20-May 20) -- A disagreement
between you and your mate could turn into
something serious if neither one of you shows a
willingness to compromise. Be the one who offers
the olive branch.
GEMini (May 21-June 20) -- Criticism of someones
work will not necessarily help enhance his or her
performance. To encourage this person, your
comments must be constructive and positive.
CAnCEr (June 21-July 22) -- If you havent been too
good about managing your money lately, you wont
have the funds you need to do or buy that something
you want. Plan better for the future.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Any restrictions to which
you might be subjected are not likely to be the
fault of others, but will be a product of your own
mismanagement. Be careful where you point the
fnger of blame.
VirGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- If youre too self-
involved, your efforts arent likely to bring you much
satisfaction today. This malady can easily be cured,
however, by putting the needs of others ahead of
your own.
LiBrA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Allowing friends to
pressure you into spending more money than
necessary could cause you to resent them instead of
yourself. You must be the one who has the willpower
to abstain.
sCOrPiO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Because youre likely
to do everything the hard way, you may not be able
to achieve all of your objectives. Try to use your time
wisely.
sAGiTTAriUs (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Guard against
a tendency to anticipate negative outcomes. If you
think you might fail, youll make sure to fnd a way to
prove yourself right.
CAPriCOrn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Do not allow
yourself to get into a situation that would put you
in a bad fnancial position with another. Dont start
borrowing from friends if youll have trouble paying
them back.
AQUAriUs (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Be careful, because
