HOUSE PASSES RYAN BUDGET WITH BIG CUTS
By Angela Swartz

Preventing exposure to secondhand
smoke and limiting exposure of minors to
activity that may increase the social accept-
ance of smoking is the idea behind South
San Franciscos ban of using electronic cig-
arette devices in city spaces while ofcials
also work on gathering information on the
ramications of allowing e-cigarette-cen-
tered businesses into the city.
Smoking an e-cigarette is now prohibited
in city buildings; city-owned parking struc-
tures; city vehicles; parks and recreation
areas zoned for that purpose; within 20 feet
of a main exit, entrance or operable window
of any city facility or building; city-owned
parking lots and open-air public places on
city-owned property per a vote by the City
Council Wednesday night. The ordinance
follows the laws the city has about smoking
tobacco in parks and city property, accord-
ing to a staff report.
Its limited in scope, said Councilman
Mark Addiego. It takes care of city proper-
t y. We dont want to encourage young peo-
ple to try it. It seems to be something
young people tend to gravitate to. Were
looking at being more restrictive in the
downtown area, but want to talk to mer-
chants rst so we dont impact their busi-
ness.
The city held a study session in March on
extending e-cigarette restrictions to down-
town, said Councilwoman Liza Normandy.
The city currently has a moratorium on
the establishment of e-cigarette lounges,

With national library week just
around the corner, local book lovers
have another reason to celebrate as the
Friends of the San Mateo Library com-
memorates 50 years of volunteerism.
Although members have changed
throughout the years, each has been a
dedicated asset to the city and the
public is invited to join in celebrat-
ing the groups anniversary at the
main library Wednesday, said City
Librarian Ben Ocn.
The Friends dedicated 4,099 hours of
service last year alone, raised $81,000
through their book sales and are a key
component to the librarys ability to
maintain a relevant collection, Ocn
said.
When the library was in need and
had to make cuts, the cuts were made in
the materials budget and thanks to the
Friends of the Library, we were able to
recoup those funds and actually exceed
them, Ocn said. The Friends are
able to really move us into the realm of
maintaining and building our collec-
tion to a higher level of excellence. So
we are able to offer the community that
we otherwise wouldnt be able to.
The Friends collect donations and
maintain a store at the main library and
online, Ocn said. Through last
month, the Friends have raised around
$65,000 this year alone, Ocn said.
With these funds, the library has
been able to support several new data-
bases available to the community
including Ancestry.com, a genealogy
research; Brainfuse, online homework

Washington state sewage
plant invites weddings
WOODINVILLE, Wash. A sewage
treatment plant near Seattle is advertis-
ing its availability as a wedding venue.
The Brightwater Wastewater
Treatment Center says on Facebook it
has a full catering kitchen, audio-video
equipment, dance oor and ample park-
ing.
You could even hold the wedding out-
side.
The director of the Brightwater
Environmental Education and
Community Center, Susan Tallarico,
tells KIRO that receptions would take
place just steps away from where raw
sewage is processed. She says theres
no odor because all the processing is
contained.
The King County plant was nished
three years ago but has been available
for rent for about seven months.
It costs $2,000 to rent the center for
eight hours. One couple has already
booked the sewage plant for their nup-
tials.
Crocodile caught
wandering around mall
ROSEVILLE Dont shed any tears
for a crocodile that was captured wander-
ing outside a pet store at a Northern
California shopping mall.
California Fish and Wildlife ofcials
have taken custody of the croc, are feed-
ing it rainbow trout and will likely
donate it to a zoo.
Police say the crocodile was appar-
ently left outside the Roseville store by
someone who didnt want it anymore.
The animal had grown to 4-feet long,
and its jaws had been wrapped shut with
heavy-duty tape. There was a note iden-
tifying it as a Nile crocodile and request-
ing someone call rescue.
Police say no one was hurt Wednesday
when the animal was picked up with the
help of a catch pole typically used to
nab stray dogs.
In China, jar of French
mountain air fetches $860
BEIJING Beijing artist Liang
Kegang returned from a business trip in
southern France with well-rested lungs
and a small item of protest against his
home citys choking pollution: a glass
jar of clean, Provence air.
He put it up for auction before a group
of about 100 Chinese artists and collec-
tors late last month, and it fetched
5,250 yuan ($860).
Air should be the most valueless
commodity, free to breathe for any
vagrant or beggar, Liang said in an
interview. This is my way to question
Chinas foul air and express my dissat-
isfaction.
Liangs work is part of a gust of recent
artistic protest and entrepreneurial
gimmickry reecting widespread dis-
satisfaction over air quality in China,
where cities often are immersed days on
end in harmful pollutants at levels
many times what is considered safe by
the World Health Organization. The
chronic problem has spurred brisk mar-
kets for dust masks and home air puri-
ers.
Chinas senior leaders have pledged
to clean the air, partly in response to a
citizenry increasingly vocal about
environmental issues. But it is a daunt-
ing task that must be balanced with
demands for economic development and
employment crucial to maintaining sta-
bility.
In February, 20 artists wearing dust
masks lay on the ground and played dead
in front of an altar at the Temple of
Heaven park in a performance art
protest in Beijing.
In March, independent artists in the
southern city of Changsha held a mock
funeral for what they imagined would be
the death of the citys last citizen
because of smog.
If smog cannot be effectively
cleaned up, what it will leave us is death
and cities of death, artist Shao Jiajun
said.
Liangs contribution is a short, ordi-
nary glass preserves jar with a rubber
seal and a ip-top. It has three small,
handwritten paper labels: one with the
name and coordinates of the French vil-
lage, Forcalquier, where he closed the
jar; one saying Air in Provence,
France in French; and one with his sig-
nature in Chinese and the date March
29.

SACRAMENTO The board that
oversees the California High-Speed
Rail Authority approved a new business
plan to submit to state lawmakers
Thursday, reecting lower revenue pro-
jections but leaving the 2028 timeline
for nishing the $68 billion bullet
train unchanged despite legal setbacks
that could cause delays.
The 2014 plan is an update required
every two years for the proposed 520-
mile system linking Northern and
Southern California. It will be submit-
ted to lawmakers, but they are not
required to take any action on it.
Among the changes adopted since
2012 is a lower projection for revenue,
prompted by research showing
Californians are taking shorter but
more frequent trips. Revenue is expect-
ed to be 5 percent lower than originally
projected by 2025 and 10 percent lower
by 2040, but the authority says it still
will be able to operate without taxpayer
subsidies.
The new business plan does not affect
the status of two court rulings being
considered by a state appellate court,
which rail authority officials have
warned could cause serious delays if
they are not overturned.
Sacramento County Superior Court
Judge Michael Kenny concluded that
the project no longer complies with the
promises made to voters when they
approved selling nearly $10 billion in
bonds for it in 2008. He also ordered
the authority to write a new nancing
plan explaining how the state will pay
for the rst 300 miles of construction.
The business plan adopted Thursday
is separate from that nancing plan. It
provides a blueprint for how the rail
line would operate and sets benchmarks
for its various phases.
The rail authority has not set an of-
cial groundbreaking date for the rst
section of track, a roughly 30-mile seg-
ment from Madera to Fresno. Instead, it
says engineering work is ongoing and
it is trying to buy the needed land or
acquire it through eminent domain.
Also Thursday, Kris Murray, the
mayor pro tem of Anaheim, presented
letters Thursday from six Orange
County businesses and associations
that support the bullet train, which
would end in Anaheim under the current
project. Disneyland and the NHLs
Anaheim Ducks were among them.
The project could generate 23,000
local jobs and $103 million in tax rev-
enue for the county, according to the
letter signed by Disneyland director of
government relations Carrie Nocella. It
also said the rail line would make travel
to and from the region easier, reducing
congestion and improving our air qual-
ity.

Police warn of sweepstakes scam
South San Francisco police are warning of
a scam related to a sweepstakes in which the
victims credit card account was paid off and
she was asked to wire two payments to
Jamaica via Western Union as insurance.
The scam worked by someone calling the
52-year-old South San Francisco resident
and identifying himself as David Black
from the United States Sweepstakes. The
caller had her Social Security number and
Capital One credit card number. The man
said the sweepstakes had paid off her bal-
ance in good faith. She checked her balance
online, veried it to be true and believed the
caller to be legitimate. The Capital One
account was linked to her Citibank money
account and the suspect had moved the
money from her account to pay the balance
of her credit card, according to police.
Anyone with information about this scam
is asked to call the South San Francisco
Police Department at (650) 877-8900 or the
Anonymous tip line at (650) 952-2244.

ident, was driving on a suspended license
when he rear-ended a vehicle near Foster
City Boulevard and Triton Drive before 1:20

Police caught up with Curiel after he
pulled into a gas station nearby. While
preparing to tow Curiels vehicle, police
found methamphetamine and drug parapher-
nalia, according to police. Curiel was arrest-
ed and his car was impounded for 30 days,
according to police.

BART board doles
out raised to top execs
BART directors voted unanimously
Thursday to give raises totaling about
3.7 percent this year to General Manager
Grace Crunican and other top officials at
the transit agency.
The percentage increase in compensation
and benets for the top executives is the
same that employees represented by labor
unions received in a new contract that was
approved early this year, BART spokesman
Jim Allison said.
Thats in line with BARTs historical
practice of giving similar raises to top of-
cials to those it gives to rank-and-le work-
ers, he said.
BART directors voted to give Crunican
and the other top executives raises of 1.86
percent retroactive to Jan. 1 plus another
1.8 percent increase on July 1, according to
Allison.
Crunicans raise will increase the
$323,200 compensation and benet pack-
age she received in 2013.
The other top ofcials affected by the vote
are general counsel Matthew Burrows, con-
troller-treasurer Scott Schroeder, district
secretary Kenneth Duran and independent
police auditor Mark Smith.
Local briefs

SACRAMENTO Abill that would force
political nonprots to reveal the names of
campaign donors no longer applies retroac-
tively under an amendment pushed by
Republican lawmakers and approved
Thursday by the Assembly.
The Assembly agreed to the amendment
by unanimous voice vote after SB27 fell
one vote short of passing the Senate last
month.
Sen. Lou Correa, D-Anaheim, introduced
the bill in response to $15 million of
anonymous contributions funneled through
conservative nonprots ahead of the 2012
general election. The money went to groups
ghting against Gov. Jerry Browns tax-
hike initiative, which passed, and pushing
for a failed initiative that would have
restricted the use of union dues for political
purposes.
The subsequent investigation into the
origin of the money led to the largest cam-
paign reporting ne in California history.
SB27 would require nonprots to disclose
the sources of donations that are intended
for political campaigns. The bill also would
require campaign committees that raise
more than $1 million to keep a list of their
top 10 contributors of $10,000 or more and
make that available online.
Senate Minority Leader Bob Huff said he
supported increased disclosure but objected
to SB27 because it would have unfairly
applied to donations made before the law
took effect.
Thousands of unsuspecting people who
have already made a contribution to a non-
profit this year will unknowingly be
exposed, Huff said in a statement after last
months failed vote in the Senate.
The amendment that passed the Assembly
on Thursday is designed to answer
Republican concerns.

WASHINGTON Sen. Dianne Feinstein
said Thursday she has dropped $300 mil-
lion in emergency spending from drought-
relief legislation to try to improve
prospects for getting the bill passed.
Most parts of California are under
extreme drought conditions. In February,
Feinstein and other senators from the West
introduced legislation designed to increase
water supplies and offset some of the eco-
nomic damage caused by the drought.
Feinstein said Thursday she had introduced
a new version of that bill.
The new bill will continue a focus on
regulatory relief. It mandates that federal
agencies open channel gates on the
Sacramento River as long as possible
without endangering salmon populations.
The gates are closed during certain times
for fishery protection.
The bill also mandates that federal agen-
cies use flexibility within existing law
to pump more water to farmers through the
Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. It also
speeds up federal decision-making in a
program that offers low-interest loans for
new water projects, and extends the
amount of time that local agencies have to
pay back the loans.
The bill does increase the authorized
caps for two existing drought relief pro-
grams by $100 million, but theres no
guarantee the extra money would be
included when Congress takes up spending
bills for the coming fiscal year.
Meanwhile, Feinstein stripped out $300
million in emergency spending, such as
$100 million that was to go to farmers to
undertake new conservation projects, and
$25 million that was to go to communities
and non-profits serving migrant and sea-
sonal farmworkers hurt by the loss of
j obs.
The bill also seeks to expand aid to
other drought-stricken states. For exam-
ple, it gives states access to unemploy-
ment benefits and re-employment services
normally reserved for a major disaster such
as hurricane or flood.
The House has passed drought legisla-
tion. Feinstein says her office is close to
securing the 60 votes needed to overcome
procedural hurdles in the Senate.
She said the states economy faces a
$7.5 billion hit as a result of the drought
and that more than 15,000 jobs are at risk.
This is an emergency, and this bill
deserves a vote, Feinstein said.

Bill would make pharmacy
syringe sales permanent
SACRAMENTO The Assembly voted
Thursday to make permanent a program that
allows pharmacies to sell syringes to drug
users as a way to prevent diseases spread by
needle-sharing.
AB1743 by Assemblyman Phil Ting, D-
San Francisco, passed on a largely party-
line, 43-26 vote and heads to the Senate.
The bill also removes a 30-syringe limit,
making California the 46th state to allow
for bulk syringe sales. Tings ofce esti-
mates a 100-syringe box can cost about
$30, while a single syringe is less than a
dollar.
Ting said his bill is supported by public
health data showing that increasing access
to clean syringes is benecial.
Hundreds of California pharmacies started
selling syringes as part of a pilot program
in 2005. After a California Department of
Public Health study found the sales reduced
needle sharing and did not increase drug-
related crime, legislators expanded the pro-
gram statewide in 2012.
Energy regulator: Steps

WASHINGTON The top federal energy
regulator said Thursday that her agency is
taking steps to improve handling of classi-

allowed widespread access to a document
that outlined specic physical threats to the
nations electric grid.
Cheryl LaFleur, acting chairwoman of the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission,
told the Senate Energy Committee on
Thursday that employees are wiping and
scrubbing all databases and taking other
steps to protect sensitive information.
The commission also has directed a non-
prot entity that oversees electric reliabili-
ty to develop physical security standards for
the grid by early June.

WINTER PARK, Fla. Amanhunt across
Florida ended Thursday with the surrender of
a driver blamed in a deadly crash at a day care
that injured 14 and killed a 4-year-old girl
who was sitting in a classroom awaiting her
afternoon snack.
Robert Alex Corchado turned himself in
and was charged with leaving the scene of a
deadly accident almost precisely 24 hours
after the KinderCare facility in Winter Park
was torn open in the wreck. He was being
held on $100,000 bond, said the Orange
County Corrections Department. His attor-
ney conrmed his client turned himself in
but refused further comment.
He had nowhere to go, said Florida
Highway Patrol Trooper Wanda Diaz.
Police say Corchado, 28, of Winter Park,
crashed his Dodge Durango into a convert-
ible, which in turn smashed into the
KinderCare building. Authorities pleaded for
the suspect to give up,
even as they blanketed
the state searching for
him. Nicole Quintus,
whose daughter, Lily, was
killed, joined the pleas.
Families are emotion-
ally destroyed because of
what he did, she said in
an interview with the
Associated Press.
The mother softly
sobbed as she spoke of her daughter. She
said Lily loved princesses, Star Wars, the
TV series Doctor Who and ranch dressing
on seemingly everything she ate even
pizza and hot dogs. Lily was sitting at a
table waiting for her afternoon snack when
the car crashed into the building, and Nicole
Quintus said a teacher called her soon after,
screaming but unable to say what happened.
One minute everything was normal and
the next there was an explosion and smoke
and screams, she said.
The girls 7-year-old brother is an aspir-
ing engineer who wants to design a time
machine to bring Lily back, the mother
added.
She was beautiful and passionate and
innocent, the mother said, and she
deserved so much more.
Lily was on the minds of those who turned
up at the day care, where the gaping hole
was boarded up with plywood and a cluster of
stuffed animals, owers and candles were
left in memoriam.
Ralph Velez, 48, left a stuffed bear from
his 5-year-old son Xavier, who goes to the
day care but was unhurt. The bear was a gift
from a few Christmases ago, and Xavier
who cant stop talking about the crash
wanted to give it to honor his friends, Velez
said.
Hell say, stupid car, or stupid driver,
Velez said. He told us last night that he
remembers the driver, who wasnt hurt, get-
ting out and saying, What did I do? What
did I do?
ORLAND Authorities say nine people
have been killed in a three-vehicle crash
that has shut down north- and south-bound
traffic on Interstate 5.
California Highway Patrol dispatcher
Curtis Pahlka says authorities received a
report of the crash at 5:41 p. m.
Thursday.
Pahlka says it is not yet clear what
caused the crash but that it involved a tour
bus, a FedEx truck and a Nissan Altima.
The northbound lane of Interstate 5 was
closed at 5:46 p.m., and the southbound
lane was closed at 6:30 p.m.
No further details were immediately
available about the identities of the dead.

PITTSBURGH The 16-year-old boy
accused of stabbing 22 people at his high
school was dazed like a deer in the head-
lights hours later and doesnt fully grasp
what he did, his attorney said Thursday as he
sketched out the beginnings of a possible
mental health defense.
Deepening the mystery of what set off the
violence, attorney Patrick Thomassey said
Alex Hribal had no history of mental illness
or troublemaking, didnt abuse drugs and was
no outcast at school, where the lawyer
described him as a B or B-plus student.
In a case like this, its pretty obvious to
me that there must be something inside this
young man that nobody knew about,
Thomassey told the Associated Press.
The local prosecutor, meanwhile, said
Hribal remained an enigma.
We have very little information about
him, Westmoreland County District
Attorney John Peck said, except for the fact
that he was a student, his age, and how he was
as a student.
Authorities seized the familys computer as
they searched for clues to Wednesdays ram-
page at Franklin Regional High, about 15
miles from Pittsburgh. Authorities said
Hribal armed himself with two kitchen knives
and stabbed 21 students and a security guard
before an assistant principal tackled him.
The slender, dark-haired boy who looks
younger than his years was jailed without bail
on four counts of attempted homicide and 21
counts of aggravated assault. Authorities are
prosecuting him as an adult, but Thomassey
said he will try to have the case moved to
juvenile court.
He said he plans to get his client examined
by a psychiatrist before a preliminary hear-
ing on April 30.
I think his mental state now is unstable.
Im not sure that he recognizes the enormity,
if thats the word, of what has occurred,
Thomassey said. And I think in his own
mind hes trying to gure out what happened
here, as we all are trying to gure out what the
heck happened here.

WASHINGTON House Republicans ral-
lied behind a slashing budget blueprint on
Thursday, passing a non-binding but politi-
cally imposing measure that promises a bal-
anced federal ledger in 10 years with sweep-
ing budget cuts and termination of health care
coverage under the Affordable Care Act.
The 219-205 vote on the budget outline
takes a mostly symbolic swipe at the gov-
ernments chronic decits. Follow-up legis-
lation to actually implement the cuts isnt in
the ofng. Twelve Republicans opposed the
measure, and not a single Democrat support-
ed it.
The measure passed after a three-day debate
that again exposed the hugely varying
visions of the rival parties for the nations
scal future. Republicans promised a bal-
anced budget by 2024 but would do so at the
expense of poor people and seniors on
Medicaid, lower-income workers receiving
Obamacare subsidies, and people receiving
food stamps and Pell Grants.
Democrats countered with a plan that would
leave Obamas health care plan and rapidly
growing health programs like Medicare
intact, relying on $1.5 trillion in tax hikes
over the coming decade to bring decits down
to sustainable but still-large levels in the
$600 billion range.
The GOP plan, by Budget Committee
Chairman Paul Ryan, R-Wis., would cut more
than $5 trillion over the coming decade to
reach balance by 2024, relying on sharp cuts
to domestic programs, but leaving Social
Security untouched and shifting more money
to the Pentagon and health care for veterans.
It reprises a controversial plan to shift future
retirees away from traditional Medicare and
toward a subsidy-based health insurance
option on the open market.
While staking out a hard line for the future,
follow-up legislation is likely to be limited
this year to a round of annual spending bills
that will adhere to a bipartisan budget pact
enacted in December.
But the Ryan plan does paint a picture of
what Republicans would attempt if they
claim the Senate this fall and the White
House in 2016. Its cuts to entrenched benet
programs like Medicare and Medicaid, how-
ever, would be difficult to pass even if
Republicans gained control of both the
House and Senate in this falls elections.
Its totally out of touch with the priorities
and values of the country, said Rep. Chris
Van Hollen, D-Md. This is a clear road map
of what Republicans in Congress would do if
they had the power to do it.
In a statement, White House press secretary
Jay Carney said the vote illustrates once
again that the House Republicans view of
the economy is a top-down approach that
cuts taxes for millionaires and could raise
taxes on middle class families with kids.
Republicans say the tough cuts they prom-
ise would strengthen the economy because
less government borrowing would boost sav-
ings and investment. And they say its sim-
ply unfair to saddle future generations with
mountains of debt.
The sooner we tackle these scal prob-
lems, the better off everybody is going to be,
the faster the economy grows, and the more
we can guarantee that the next generation
inherits a debt-free future, said Ryan.
Republicans opposing the bill were most-
ly tea party adherents such as Rep. Thomas
Massie of Kentucky, as well as several mem-
bers of the Georgia delegation who are com-
peting in a Senate primary. Ahandful of more
moderate members from the Northeast,
including Reps. Chris Gibson of New York
and Frank LoBiondo of New Jersey, also
opposed it.
At issue is the arcane congressional budget
process, which employs a nonbinding meas-
ure known as a budget resolution to set forth
goals for future taxes, spending and decits.
But follow-up legislation is usually limited
to one-year appropriations bills. The House
Appropriations Committee has already
approved two of its least controversial bills,
those funding veterans programs and the
budget for Congress itself.
Senate Democrats have announced they
wont bother with a budget plan this year,
relying on Ryans December pact with Senate
Budget Committee Chairman Patty Murray,
D-Wash., to guide consideration of this
years round of appropriations bills.
Ryans plan revives a now-familiar list of
spending cuts to promise balance, including
$2.1 trillion over 10 years in health care sub-
sidies and coverage under the Affordable Care
Act; $732 billion in cuts to Medicaid and
other health care programs; and almost $1
trillion in cuts to other benet programs like
food stamps, Pell Grants and farm subsidies.
The measure also promises deep, probably
unrealistic cuts to domestic programs like
education, health research and grants to local
governments that are funded each year
through annual appropriations bills.
Ryans plan also reprises a failed strategy
from last year to cut domestic agency operat-
ing budgets and shift the money to the
Pentagon after 2015. When Republicans
tried that last year, the House was unable to
pass the follow-up spending bills imple-
menting the cuts.

Avenue in Burlingame. While the Ross

it. During the election campaign, incum-

House panel votes to
hold IRS official in contempt
WASHINGTON A House Committee
voted Thursday to hold a former Internal
Revenue Service ofcial in contempt of
Congress for refusing to answer questions at a
pair of hearings.
The ofcial, Lois Lerner, previously headed
the IRS division that processes applications
for tax-exempt status. Last May, after provid-
ing an opening statement, Lerner refused to
answer questions at a House Oversight
Committee hearing about IRS agents improp-
erly singling out tea party applications for
extra scrutiny. She again refused to answer
questions at hearing in March.
Lerner cited her Fifth Amendment right
against self-incrimination.
The Oversight Committee voted 21-12
Thursday to hold her in contempt. All
Republicans voted in favor and all Democrats
voted against.
Committee chairman Darrell Issa, R-Calif.,
said Lerner had effectively waived her Fifth
Amendment right not to answer questions by
providing an opening statement at the 2013
hearing. In her statement, Lerner said she did
nothing wrong, broke no laws and never lied
to Congress. We need Ms. Lerners testimo-
ny to complete our oversight work, Issa
said. American taxpayers certainly dont get
to plead the Fifth and escape all accountabili-
ty when the IRS audits them.
Australian PM confident
sounds are from Flight 370
PERTH, Australia Australias prime min-
ister said Friday that authorities are condent
that a series of underwater signals detected in a
remote patch of the Indian Ocean are coming
from the missing Malaysia Airlines plane.
Tony Abbott told reporters in Shanghai,
China, that search crews had signicantly nar-
rowed down the area they were hunting for the
source of the sounds, rst detected on
Saturday.
We have very much narrowed down the
search area and we are very condent that the
signals that we are detecting are from the
black box on MH370, Abbott said.
Nevertheless, were getting into the stage
where the signal from what we are very con-
dent is the black box is starting to fade, he
added. We are hoping to get as much informa-
tion as we can before the signal nally
expires.
The planes black boxes, or ight data and
cockpit voice recorders, could help solve the
mystery of why Flight 370 veered so far off
course when it vanished on March 8 on a trip
from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, to Beijing. But
the batteries powering their locator beacons
last only about a month and it has been
more than a month since the plane disap-
peared.

OPINION 9
Lawn be gone
I
give up. Im at a loss. Its
my lawn. I got with the pro-
gram during the dry January
and didnt water it. After all, water
is at a premium with our paltry
rainfall totals. I could wear my
brown lawn like a badge of honor.
This guy gets
it, people
walking by
would say.
But since
then, weve had
some rain and
just enough to
keep it alive,
yet now in a
weird sort of
half-dead state.
Its not brown, but its not green
either and the clover that lled in
the dead spots is now dying in the
heat.
So now Im left with a bas-
tardized half-dead lawn monster
that needs some water. But dare I
water it? And even if I did, is it
beyond repair? At what point am I
just watering weeds and dirt?
I cant take the plunge and
reseed it because that would take
up way too much water. I could
collect our gray water but that
seems like a project that may
start but get nowhere near com-
pletion. It would be much better if
we didnt get any rain at all and it
would just die. But that would
mean we wouldnt be getting any
rain and thats not good for the
drought.
I could buy sod, but thats
expensive and kind of defeats the
purpose since you have to water
it.
I could transplant the amazing-
ly strong grass that grows wild in
my backyard but I have a feeling
it would also promptly half die.
I could plant native grass but
that stuff always looks super cool
at rst then gets weird when it
starts to grow and die off.
Trimming it always tends to ruin
it too. Or maybe native plants
like shrubs and junipers, but that
takes some design sense and
seems like a lot of work to do it
right.
There is always green paint,
which would likely kill the grass
and I suspect is not good for the
environment. Or turf, not fake
turf mind you, but turf, which is
fake grass. Im not sure of the
cost, but its probably expensive.
So that may be off the table.
And I wont do the lava rocks or
white granite. Just not my style
and besides, the neighborhood
dogs wouldnt like it. Hurts their
feet. There is always the idea of a
some sort of desert landscape
with cacti and other southwest
style decor like, I dont know,
slats of rusted metal? But Im just
not into it.
Some have suggested planting a
garden since I have one in the
backyard, but that will take water
too. Maybe tomatoes would work
since they dont need as much
water as say, lettuce or squash, but
mine is not the neighborhood for
such a front yard garden. I would
only end up watching my produce
walk down the street.
There is always the path of
least resistance, which is to just
let it be. Eventually it will turn
brown and I will have my badge
of honor and I wont have to do a
darn thing.

U
.S. Secretary of State
John Kerry sounds frus-
trated and exhausted. No
wonder. He has shuttled time and
again to the Middle East to meet a
self-imposed late April deadline
for a framework that could lead
to an Israeli-Palestinian peace
deal.
But the talks are on the verge of
collapse. Let them.
There are limits to the amount
of time and effort that the United
States can spend if the parties
themselves are unwilling to take
constructive steps in order to be
able to move forward, Kerry told
reporters last week. Were at
those limits.
Kerrys warning came after
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu balked at releasing
Palestinian prisoners because, he
said, the Palestinians hadnt
agreed to extend the negotiation
deadline past the end of this
month.
And after the Palestinians
moved to join 15 international
conventions and agreements,
defying Israel and the United
States.
And after the United States fool-
ishly oated the possibility of
releasing convicted spy Jonathan
Pollard in a transparently desper-
ate bid to keep the Israelis at the
table.
Last week, Kerry said the peace
process needs a reality check.
Wed say it also needs the United
States to substitute tough love for
denial of the obvious. What would
happen if Kerry told the Israelis
and Palestinians, Call us when
youre ready to make the serious
compromises necessary for a deal.
Otherwise, we have pressing
issues elsewhere in the world.
Secretary Kerry, lets say exact-
ly that.
Everyone knows the broad out-
lines of a deal the necessary
land swaps and security arrange-
ments. And everyone knows the
formidable obstacles. The
Palestinians have failed to unite
behind a single political banner,
with Fatah and Hamas jockeying
for advantage. Hamas terrorists
rule Gaza and could veto a peace
deal with violence.
The United States may nd a
way to hold the parties at the
table beyond the latest deadline.
But that just means another dead-
line will arise ... likely to be bro-
ken. The United States cant bro-
ker a peace deal absent strong
motivation from both sides to
surmount formidable, historic
hurdles.
The United States has devoted
enough energy to trying, at least
for now. Whether its a quest for
peace in the region, or for histo-
rys warm smile, or for ultimate
credibility as diplomats,
American presidents and secre-
taries of state have been mesmer-
ized, and ultimately disappointed,
reaching for this elusive goal.
Time to step back.

Paying the ice rink forward
Editor,
Four years ago, my then 8-year-
old son turned to me and said,
Dad, I want to play ice hockey.
Right, I responded, lets
head to the ice rink to teach you
how to skate.
There was no wondering about
where to go or how to accomplish
this because there was an ice rink
in our community at Bridgepointe
Shopping Center. Today, my son
plays competitive travel hockey
and his dad plays in an adult
league.
I want to go back to the San
Mateo community members and
city leaders of the late 90s and
thank them for this they had
the foresight and fortitude to
ensure that as Fashion Island was
being transformed into
Bridgepointe, this important
community benet would remain
to serve the city and region.
So today, it is our responsibili-
ty to ght for this skating rink,
both for the many thousands of
current users and for the multitude
of future users.
The future is calling the cur-
rent Planning Commission and
City Council of San Mateo must
be bold, decisive and proactive in
restoring the operation of this ice
rink immediately.
Aseed was planted 15 years ago
and it grew into a community ice
rink lets be sure that its not
cut down for yet another retail
outlet, as the owner of that land is
currently proposing.
Please show up 7 p.m. April 24
at the San Mateo Marriott to
show your support bring your
kids and your neighbors.

Supervisor
Horsley and his salary
Editor,
I agree with the the Daily
Journal editorial endorsing
Supervisor Horsley for re-election
(editorial, Horsley for District
Three supervisor, in the April 9
edition of the Daily Journal). He
has done an excellent job in his
rst term.
However, I have to disagree
with the conclusions about his
entitlement to the supervisor
salary while drawing his pension.
I think it was commendable of
him to eschew his salary upon his
election. His later decision to
accept payment seemed duplici-
tous at the time. To his credit, he
noted the criticism and quit tak-
ing a salary. He saved the county
approximately $500,000 by not
taking the salary for most of his
rst term.
Now we have a choice to vote
for him or for Michael Stogner.
After reading the interviews by
Michelle Durand, it seems clear to
me that Supervisor Horsley has a
better understanding of county
issues and how to address them.
While its true, taxpayers are pay-
ing for Horsleys $200,000 pen-
sion, it doesnt make sense to me
that he should be disallowed his
salary because of it. If Stogner is
elected, county residents will be
paying Horsleys pension and
Stogners $115,000 salary.
Electing Horsley would therefore
not cost the residents any more.
Many people receive a pension
after retiring from one job and
then seek other employment.
Should they be expected to work
without pay?
Given the Daily Journals infer-
ence that the only reason not to
vote for Don Horsley is the salary
issue, I see no reason not to sup-
port him for re-election.

Gilead
Editor,
The Peninsula is home to one
of the largest concentrations of
biotechnology rms anywhere on
Earth and I believe most county
residents support the industry. It
is unfortunate that local rm
Gilead has become the poster
child for corporate greed.
When they announced the new,
more effective drug, Solvadi, to
cure Hepatitis C, there was much
jubilation and the stock price
soared. Then it was announced
they were charging $1,000 per
day and a total of $84,000.
Industry experts say there is a real
chance this will break medical
insurance pharmacy benet s,
forcing companies to suspend
them. Consumers are already
organizing to boycott the drug as
a competing and more cost-effec-
tive drug is nearing approval and
Gileads stock is slumping. There
is a God, shame on Gilead.

NEW YORK The high-yers are
laying the stock market low once
again.
Investors turned against biotech,
Internet and other once-soaring stocks
on Thursday, driving the Nasdaq com-
posite index to its worst day since
2011.
The sell-off in tech names dragged
down the broader market and left all the
major U.S. indexes in the red for the
year.
Steep declines in tech, followed by
rebounds, have become a familiar pat-
tern in the stock market in recent weeks.
After falling Monday, the Nasdaq and
other major index rallied over the next
two days. On Thursday, stocks dropped
again, led once more by biotech and
technology companies.
The slide represents a shift in investor
psychology. After chasing their huge
gains in 2013, investors are worried
that stocks like Facebook and Gilead
Sciences, which doubled last year, have
become too expensive.
And its not just lofty prices that have
made those sectors volatile in recent
weeks. Regulators are scrutinizing the
cost of cutting-edge biotech drugs.
Worried investors are shifting from
riskier investments to safer areas like
utilities, health care and consumer sta-
ples.
On Thursday, the Nasdaq composite
index fell 3 percent, its worst drop since
November 2011.
Few companies escaped the down-
draft. Of the Nasdaqs 100 largest
stocks, only one, C.H. Robinson
Worldwide, a freight company, ended
higher.
Several factors likely combined to
send stocks lower, said Randy Frederick,
managing director of trading and deriva-
tives at Schwab Center for Financial
Research.
Frederick said that recent IPOs, many
of them tech and biotech companies,
have become overheated. At the same
time, the market hasnt had a 10 percent
decline since the spring of 2012, only
smaller dips in the 4 percent and 5 per-
cent range.
Weve been due, Frederick said. We
havent really had a good catalyst for
one, but the quarters over, we have an
earnings season, we have some stocks
that are a little overheated, theres just a
lot of small negatives that are sort of
piling together and creating this conu-
ence of anxiety.
The Nasdaq ended the day down
129.79 points to 4,054.11. It is now
down 7 percent from its recent high
reached March 5. Other major index also
fell, but not as much.
The Standard & Poors 500 index
dropped 39.10 points to close at
1,838.08. It is now down 2.09 percent
for the year, although it still remains
close to its all-time reached April 2. The
Dow Jones industrial average lost
266.96 points to 16,170.22. It is off
1.6 percent for 2014.
Gilead Sciences slid $5.17, or 7 per-
cent, to $65.48 on Thursday. Biogen
Idec dropped $13.33, or 4 percent, to
$287.35.
Frederick said it made sense that for-
mer high-yers like biotech would have
the biggest drops because thats where
the risk money is, and when people get
a little spooked, theyre going to pull
out of that.
The markets drop wiped out gains
made earlier in the week. On Wednesday,
minutes from the Federal Reserves lat-
est meeting reassured investors that the
central bank wasnt in a hurry to raise
interest rates. The S&P 500 had its best
day in a month.
The index remains near its record
high. Stocks had a huge run-up in 2013,
and are in the sixth year of a bull market.
The rally in stock prices has been
driven, in part, by the Feds commit-
ment to record-low interest rates. In
recent years, the Fed has aggressively
bought bonds to hold down borrowing
rates and accelerate spending, investing
and hiring.
Investors flee tech stocks again
Stocks that moved substantially or traded heavily Thursday on the New
York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq Stock Market:
NYSE
Rite Aid Corp., up 54 cents to $6.94
The drugstore is out of the recovery ward and appears ready to break into
a sprint after its sixth-straight quarterly prot.
Pier 1 Imports Inc., down 2 cents to $18.20
The home furnishings retailers quarterly earnings and revenue topped
Wall Street projections and it expects sales at established stores to rise.

prot and revenue declined in the second quarter.
Ruby Tuesday Inc., up 72 cents to $6.68

Hewlett-Packard Co., up 8 cents to $32.80
Wall Street is seeing prot-margin recovery at the tech company, with
Morgan Stanley raising its earnings expectations for 2015 and 2016.
Nasdaq
Bed Bath & Beyond Inc., down $4.19 to $63.72
Weak sales drove quarterly prot down nearly 11 percent at the home
goods retailer and its outlook left investors disappointed.

Weak comparable-store sales overshadowed an otherwise strong quarter
at the warehouse club, which beat most prot expectations.
Automatic Data Processing Inc., down 66 cents to $75.22

dealerships into a separate, publicly traded company.

WASHINGTON An Internet connection
and a bunch of stolen identities are all it
takes for crooks to collect billions of dol-
lars in bogus federal tax refunds. And the
scam is proving too pervasive to stop.
A government report released in
November said the IRS issued nearly $4 bil-
lion in fraudulent tax refunds over the previ-
ous year to thieves who were using other
peoples personal information. Attorney
General Eric Holder said this week that the
scale, scope and execution of these fraud
schemes has grown substantially and the
Justice Department in the past year has
charged 880 people.
Whos involved? In a video message
released ahead of the April 15 tax ling
deadline, Holder said the scams are carried
out by a variety of actors, from greedy tax
return preparers to identity brokers who
prot from the sale of personal information
to gangs and drug rings looking for easy
access to cash.
Even Holder isnt immune. Two men
pleaded guilty in Georgia last year to trying
to get a tax refund by using his name, Social
Security number and date of birth on tax
forms.
The IRS says it opened nearly 1,500 crim-
inal investigations related to identity theft
in scal year 2013, a 66 percent increase
over the previous year, and has strength-
ened lters that help detect where the scams
are coming from. It says it stops far more
fraudulent refunds than it pays out and is
making a dent in the problem.
Still, the schemes have grown more
sophisticated, attracting criminals with
violent backgrounds who see an easy and
safe vehicle for theft, according to law
enforcement officials who fear that not
enough controls are in place.
Ive been on calls with Alabama,
Chicago, some other eld divisions, where
theyre now experiencing people who were
from Florida and now moving to other
states to conduct this same type of fraud,
said FBI Supervisory Special Agent Jay
Bernardo, who works fraud cases in south
Florida.
Based on the parameters that are in place
now, he added, its very difcult to stop.
What can taxpayers do? The most impor-
tant step: Protect their Social Security num-
bers.
$4 billion: Bogus tax refunds a growing problem
Gap says key sales
measure down for March
SAN FRANCISCO Gap Inc. said
Thursday that a key sales measure fell more
in March than the market had expected, part-
ly because of bad winter weather.
Shares of the San Francisco-based compa-
ny, which owns the Gap, Banana Republic
and Old Navy brands, fell nearly 3 percent in
after-hours trading following the announce-
ment.
Gap said its revenue for stores open at
least a year fell 6 percent. This is considered
a key indicator of a retailers nancial per-
formance as it strips away the impact of
recently opened and closed sites. Analysts
polled by Thomson Reuters were anticipated
a drop of 4.7 percent.
The results included a 7 percent drop at its
Gap stores, 4 percent drop at Banana
Republic and 7 percent drop at Old Navy.
Gap had already warned investors that a
shift of the Easter holiday into April this
year, from March last year, would hinder its
sales for the month. The company reported
total revenue of $1.51 billion for the ve-
week period that ended April 5.
Family Dollar to close
stores as shoppers pinched
NEW YORK Dollar stores are feeling
the pinch from mounting nancial pressures
on low-income shoppers.
Family Dollar said Thursday that will cut
jobs and close about 370 underperforming
stores as it tries to reverse sagging sales and
earnings. The discount store operator will
also permanently lower prices on about
1,000 basic items.
Family Dollar Inc., which operates 8,100
stores, did not provide details on how many
jobs it would cut.
The retail chain follows competitors in
highlighting the split between shoppers
who are enjoying an improving economy
and those being left behind.
Dollar General, the nations largest dol-
lar-store chain with about 11,100 locations,
offered a weak prot outlook last month
after reporting weak fourth-quarter sales.
Google to sell Glass to
bigger pool of consumers
SAN FRANCISCO A lot more people
are about to get a chance to buy Google
Glass, the Internet-connected eyewear that
has become the hottest accessory in geek
fashion.
Google will sell the Explorer version of
Glass to any U.S. resident who places an
online order for the device beginning at 9
a.m. PDT April 15. The product will cost
$1,500, the same price that Google Inc. has
charged for Glass since sales of the device
began last year, the company said Thursday.

AUGUSTA, Ga. No nerves. No worries.
Adam Scott never knew the opening round
at Augusta National could be so enjoyable.
With his green jacket upstairs in the lock-
er room for Masters champions, Scott made
only one bad swing that cost him two shots
in a round of 3-under 69. It was the lowest
opening score by a defending champion in
13 years, and it left Scott one shot behind
leader Bill Haas on an otherwise demanding
day.
It was really how you
hope to come out and
play at any major, and
especially the Masters,
Scott said. And theres
no doubt winning the
Masters last year had me a
little more comfortable
on the rst tee than Ive
ever been in the past,
because I didnt have the
legs shaking and nerves jangling for six or
seven holes like usual.
Haas, with a rich family history at
Augusta that includes a green jacket for his
great uncle Bob Goalby, settled down after
an opening bogey with a collection of good
birdie putts and an 8-iron to 5 feet for birdie
on the 18th for a 68.
It was the rst time in 18 majors that Haas
has had the lead after any round. That only
gets him a crystal vase for the low round of
the day at the Masters. Haas knows better
than to put too much stock into what hap-
pens Thursday. He was leading after the
opening round in Houston last week and tied
for 37th.
Theres tons of golf left, he said.
Only one rst-round leader in the last 30
years has gone on to win the Masters.
Former Masters champion Bubba Watson,
who slipped that green jacket on Scott last
year, played his rst bogey-free round in a
major since the 2009 U.S. Open and shot a
69. So did Louis Oosthuizen, whom Watson
beat in a playoff at Augusta.
They were the only players to break 70,
the fewest for an opening round at the
Masters since 2007.
No one is really going crazy out there in

MIAMI Three NFLplayers are named in a
police report involving a woman who passed
out in a hotel and later woke up in a hospital
not knowing how she got there, though no
one has been charged with a crime, authorities
said Thursday.
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin
Kaepernick and wide receiver Quinton Patton,
and Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Ricardo
Lockette, were with the woman at a Miami
hotel where Lockette lives,
according to the Miami
Police Department report.
Police stressed that the
report contained only
unproven allegations at
this point.
As far as whether there
was a crime committed, its
too early to say, said
police spokeswoman
Kenia Reyes.
The account of the woman, who was not
identied by police, is described in the report:
The woman mixed drinks and gave the men
shots, and the men told her in order to drink
the shots she had to hit the bong which con-
tained marijuana.
The four were watching a basketball game
when the woman began feeling light-headed
and went to lie down in a bedroom. Kaepernick
came into the room, began kissing her and
undressed her completely. The woman told
police that they did not have sex, and that
Kaepernick left the bedroom saying hed be
right back.
Afew minutes later, the woman told police,
the other two men peeked inside. She said to
them, What are you doing? Where is Colin?
Get out.
The report says the woman does not remem-
ber anything after that and later woke up in a
hospital room with no memory of how she got
there.
The woman told police she has had a sexual
relationship with Kaepernick in the past.

Four years ago, tennis coach Rich de Leon
was approached about starting a boys ten-
nis team at Capuchino.
As Cap only had a girls team at the time,
of which de Leon was at the helm, the veter-
an coach was speculative of starting a boys
program until, that is, he got a look at
sophomore Mark Kauffman.
So, de Leon agreed to coach the upstart
boys tennis team. Kauffman served as the
No. 1 singles player for three seasons until
graduating last year and was rewarded by
being named to All-Peninsula Athletic
League Ocean Division second team as a
senior.

Capuchino catcher RamonEnriquez tags out Sequoias Chris Ortiz during the Cherokees 5-4 win over the Mustangs in a key PAL Ocean
Division game Thursday afternoon in SanBruno.
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Sequoia knew it had a top-heavy schedule
in opening Peninsula Athletic League Ocean
Division play against its three biggest con-
tenders in the rst four weeks.
And after starting the year 1-3 in league,
including a sweep against a dangerous
Hillsdale squad, things werent looking so
good for the Cherokees.
Oh, how the tide has turned.
With a 5-4 win at Capuchino Thursday,
second-place Sequoia (5-3 in Ocean
Division, 11-3-1 overall) has won four
straight to catapult into second place.
Paired with rst-place Hillsdales 7-0 loss
to Kings Academy Thursday, the Cherokees
now trail the Knights by mere percentage
points in the Ocean Division race.
Before embarking on the four-game win-
ning streak, Sequoia manager Corey Uhalde
gave a motivational speech telling his
players to look to the future. It turned out to
be one effective speech.
I told them the narrative of the story has
yet to be written, Uhalde said. Its going
to be about how you bounce back from
[opening league play 1-3]. I thought if we
came out of these two weeks at 3-1 it would
be a pretty good showing. So, to get two
from El Camino and now two from Cap I
would describe the feeling as relief.
After rattling off a pair of shutouts against
El Camino then a third consecutive shutout
with a 4-0 win over Capuchino (3-3, 13-6)
Tuesday, the Cherokees had to grind out a
comeback win Thursday.
Sequoia ultimately won the game on the

hits in four innings of work.
South City 6, Pinewood 1
The Warriors improved to 8-0 in
Peninsula Athletic League Lake Division
play with a win over the Panthers Thursday.

tom of the frame to force extra innings.
Menlo senior Sam Crowder tabbed the deci-
sive hit to score Mikey Diekroeger with the
game-winning run.
Carlmont led at three different junctures of
the game, also taking a 1-0 lead in the sec-
ond and a 6-2 lead in the fourth. Sophomore

and currently own a 1.75 ERA. The Bears
committed four errors in the game. With the
win, Terra Nova improves to 3-2 in the Bay
Division and 9-6 overall. The loss is M-As
rst in Bay play as the Bears fall to 3-1 in

6 overall. Burlingame falls to 1-3 in league

Wednesday, but the Gators pulled out the
narrow victory, beating their rival for the
third straight time.
After trading goals for the rst six min-
utes, Menlo (2-1 WBAL, 7-4 overall) scored
three unanswered from Nikky Price and a
pair from Parvathi Narayan to take a 5-2
advantage.
After exchanging goals and Menlo lead-
ing 6-3, SHP (4-0, 6-2) cut the decit to one
with goals from Ally Mayle and Libby Muir.
With the score tied at 6, Brigid White
scored with 51 seconds left in the opening
half to give the Gators a 7-6 lead at half-
time.
The Knights scored the rst two goals of
the second half for a 7-6 lead, followed by
two straight from the Gators for an 8-7
advantage.
Mayle ands sixth goal of the game put
SHP ahead 13-12 and a Caroline Cummings
strike made it a two-goal Gators lead, 14-
12.
Menlo cut its decit to one on a Narayan
goal with 53 seconds left in the match, but
the Gators ran out the clock to secure the
win.
In addition to Mayles six goals,
Cummings added three, Libby Muir two and
Kiana Caccione, Brigid White and Jane
Mehan scored for SHP.
Menlo was led by Narayans four, fol-
lowed by three apiece from Sophia
Donovan, Price and Kira Sze.

Menlo-Atherton 6, Burlingame 1
The Bears moved closer to an undefeated
PAL Bay Division campaign with the win
over the Panthers Thursday.
M-A (11-0 PAL Bay) dominated in ve
matches, dropping just six games.
The two best matches of the day came at
No. 1 and No. 2 singles, with the teams
splitting them. M-As Nick Fratt needed a
third-set super tiebreaker to beat
Burlingames Matt Miller. Fratt won the
rst set 6-2, but Miller ipped the tables
and won the second set by the same score. In
the rst-to-10-points third set, Fratt pre-
vailed, 10-6.

The Hillsdale softball team kept the heat
on in the Peninsula Athletic League Bay
Division race with a 5-2 win at Capuchino
Thursday.
The Knights (4-2 in Bay Division, 11-3
overall) sent nine batters to the plate in the
third inning in which they scored all their
runs after two were out. Riley Wells sparked
the outburst with a two-out walk, starting a
carousel of six straight Hillsdale batters
reaching base.
After Wells walked, junior Bailey Nestor
singled, junior Kelly Miller reached on an
error to score Wells, junior Kara Ronberg
singled to score Nestor and sophomore
Arianna Richwood reached on an error to
score Miller. Then junior shortstop Meagan
Wells punctuated the rally with a booming
two-run double to plate Ronberg and
Richwood.
The big rally was an immediate response
to Cap (2-3, 9-7) scoring two runs in the
previous half inning.
Were sort of the comeback kids, said
Meagan Wells, who entered the game hit-
ting .353 and now paces the Knights with
ve doubles. Whenever we get down we
dont give up. We never give up. We never
stop pushing to our full potential.
Knights right-hander Eryn McCoy earned
the win with her fourth complete game of
the year. The loss was charged to Cap right-
hander Rafaela Dade. All ve runs surren-
dered by Dade were unearned. However, it
was the sophomores two errors that opened
the door for the Knights comeback rally.
We gave it away, Cap head coach Todd
Grammatico said. We should have won it 2-
0 2-1 at the most.
Grammatico expressed absolute faith in
his sophomore right-hander nonetheless.
[Dade] has been excellent, he said. She
did a good job today. She was our pitcher
last year as a freshman. She is like a hundred
percent (better) over last year. As hard as
she works, I expect her to improve every
year. By her senior year shell probably
be one of the best pitchers in the league.
Hillsdale has been getting some serious
results from its starting pitching tandem of
McCoy and junior Tori Pierucci. Wi t h
Thursdays win, McCoy improves 7-2.
Pierucci is currently 4-2. And the duo rolled
at the Wilcox Invitational Tournament at
Mission College Saturday to pace the
Knights to a 3-1 record.
I personally think both of them havent
progressed like I want them to, Hillsdale
head coach Randy Metheany. But if you

MINNEAPOLIS By the time Dan Straily took the mound
for the second inning, he knew he just didnt have it.
His velocity nowhere to be found, the 25-year-old right-
hander took the next step in his maturation process by grit-
ting his teeth, focusing on location and changing speeds
over anything ashy and shutting down the Minnesota
Twins.
Straily pitched three-hit ball for seven innings and Sam
Fuld hit a rare home run to help the
Oakland Athletics complete a three-game
sweep with a 6-1 victory Thursday.
Its part of learning from the past, from
last year, said Straily (1-1), who gave up
one run and struck out ve. On days when
I didnt have my best stuff, I would try to
pitch like I did and it would cost me. After
the second inning, I realized I didnt have
my A stuff in my arm today. So it was
just a matter of mixing speeds and keep-
ing everybody off balance.
The Athletics rotation has opened the season with nine
straight starts allowing
three runs or less and
has compiled a 1.93
ERAin 56 innings.
Theyve done a great
job. So far, so good,
Josh Donaldson said of
the rotation. Cant
really complain about
what theyve done.
Thats what we expect
from them.
Fuld hit just his sixth
homer in 738 career
plate appearances and
singled. Donaldson had
a two-run homer and an
RBI single for the
Athletics (6-3).
Mike Pelfrey (0-2)
gave up six runs on nine
hits and four walks in
ve innings. The Twins
have had only one qual-
ity start in their first
nine games.
Brian Dozier hit his
third home run of the
season for Minnesota.
Straily was selected in
the 24th round of the
2009 draft, just another
in the seemingly end-
less line of young,
strong starting pitchers
churned out by Billy
Beanes Moneyball
machine.
Last year he led all ALrookies in starts, innings and strike-
outs, and he brushed off the early homer to Dozier to slow
down the Twins for the rest of the game. He allowed two
baserunners both on walks over his nal ve innings
It wasnt his best velocity, manager Bob Melvin said.
He was throwing basically 87 mph today. But hes always
got that slider in his pocket. He threw a few more changeups
today and a few more curveballs, so he kept them off balance
more than he typically pitches.
Pelfrey had no such luck, laboring through another poor
outing for Minnesotas starting rotation. Donaldsons
homer in the third inning put him behind 3-1 and he walked
No. 9 hitter Nick Punto in the fourth before Fuld yanked a
pitch just over the wall in right eld for a 5-1 lead.
I think all the way around, I was terrible today, Pelfrey
said.
NOTES: The announced attendance of 20,650 was the
smallest in Target Field history. ... Umpires reviewed a play
in the sixth inning in which Jed Lowrie was thrown out at
home by Twins CF Aaron Hicks. Umpires were looking to
see if C Josmil Pinto was illegally blocking the plate. The
call of an out was conrmed. ... The Athletics head to Seattle
for a series against the Mariners. LHP Tommy Milone will
make his rst start of the season on Friday night against
Mariners RHP Felix Hernandez (2-0, 1.88).
As sweep Twins for
fourth win in a row
MINNEAPOLIS The Oakland Athletics brought Jim
Johnson into their bullpen when they lost All-Star closer
Grant Balfour in free agency.
Two weeks into the season, Johnson
is 0-2 with an 18.90 ERAand one blown
save in five appearances for the
Athletics. Manager Bob Melvin could-
nt afford to wait while the former
Orioles closer got into a groove, remov-
ing him from that role on Thursday.
Melvin will proceed with a closer-by-
committee approach.
Theres no timetable, Melvin told
As beat writers before the team played
their series nale against the Minnesota
Twins. Lets just get him straightened out. And we have
plenty of options. Thats the good thing about our team,
our versatility. Well play it by ear based on how the
games going, whos available on that particular day.
Hes allowed at least two runs in three of his ve appear-
ances, his seven total runs allowed is tied for the most in
the AL among relievers. Hes allowed more walks and hits
than any other reliever in the league.
Its a far cry from the dominant reliever who saved 50
games for the Orioles last season, tied with Atlantas Craig
Kimbrel for the most in the majors. The As were in the
market when Balfour, who had 38 saves last year to help
Oakland win its second straight AL West title, signed with
the Tampa Bay Rays over the winter.
Johnson is making $10 million and will be a free agent
at the end of this season, but the As can take heart that he
has recovered from similar funks before to post solid sea-
sons. Last year, he was charged with three losses and four
of his nine total blown saves during a tough six-game
stretch in the middle of May. He allowed 12 runs over ve
innings in that stretch, but posted a 1.52 ERAin his other
69 appearances.
Oakland will use Dan Otero, Ryan Cook, Luke Gregorson
and Sean Doolittle in save situations, depending on the
matchup.
As take Johnson out of closer role

Hillsdale pitcher Eryn McCoy improved her
record to 7-2 with a complete game 5-2 win
over Capuchino.
look at their ERAs, our team ERAis 1.20. If
its 1.20, you should probably win every
game. So, you cant really put it on them. I
do kind of feel bad for them because we have
struggled at the plate as of late, where early
in the year we were crushing the ball. Better
now than later in the year, but they both
pitch excellent.
Capuchino was sitting pretty after a sec-
ond-inning rally. The Lady Mustangs got a
leadoff single from Lili Luevano. The senior
stole second and freshman Adriana Picazo
singled her home to get Cap on the board.
Then with two outs, sophomore Allie Stines
hit a booming triple to right to score
Picazo.
Stines has been the lifeblood of the Cap
offense this season, entering into play
sporting a .417 batting average. The
Mustangs are paling in comparison hitting
.237 as a team and totaled just three hits in a
1-0 loss to Woodside Tuesday.
Were just a little rusty but I expect to
come back, Grammatico said.
For Hillsdale, the offensive strategy is
simple: Put the ball into play and good
things happen.
You get the ball in play and dont hit
pop-ups and a lot of things can happen,
Grammatico said. When its on the ground
good things can happen.
With the win, Hillsdale holds steady at the
third place in the Bay Division race behind
second-place Half Moon Bay and rst-place
Carlmont.

OAKLAND Kenneth Faried made a turn-
around hook shot over Draymond Green with
a half-second remaining, and the Denver
Nuggets made Golden State wait at least one
more game to secure a playoff berth with a
stunning 100-99 win over the Warriors on
Thursday night.
Stephen Currys oater over Faried put the
Warriors up 99-98 with 4.7 seconds to play,
sending the announced sellout crowd of
19,596 roaring to their feet. Faried quieted
fans moments later, backing down Green for
the winning shot.
Currys quick 30-footer rimmed off as time
expired.
Timofey Mozgov tied a career high of 23
points and set a career best with 29 rebounds,
and Faried nished with 18 points and 17
boards to rally the Nuggets from 20 points
down in the rst half. Denver, which had lost
six straight on the road, won both games at
Golden State this season.
Curry had 24 points and seven assists, and
Klay Thompson scored 21 points to high-
light an otherwise disappointing perform-
ance by the Warriors. The Nuggets outre-
bounded Golden State 63-38 and made all the
big plays late.
Mozgov made a step-back jumper from 17
feet before Darrell Arthurs 3-pointer gave
the Nuggets an 83-80 lead their rst lead
of the game with 7:52 left.
After going down by ve, Thompson and
Curry highlighted an 8-0 spurt to put the
Warriors up 93-90. Randy Foye followed
with a layup and a 3-pointer to put the
Nuggets in front.
Thompson missed a jumper, then Faried
stole a rebound from Andrew Bogut and put it
back for a layup that extended Denvers lead
to 97-93. Curry came back with two free
throws before Faried made 1 of 2 from the
line.
Curry forced another foul and made both
free throws shots to slice Denvers lead to
98-97 with 35.9 seconds left. Following
another Nuggets miss, Curry came off a
screen from Green and oated a go-ahead run-
ner over Faried with 4.7 seconds left that
seemingly put the Warriors in the playoffs.
Instead, the Nuggets called timeout and
went right after the undersized Green, who
has been starting at power forward for the
injured David Lee. Faried backed Green down
and oated in a hook shot that silenced the
blue-and-gold clad crowd for good.
The Warriors were trying to clinch a spot
in the playoffs in consecutive years for the
rst time since the 1990-91 and 1991-92
seasons and improve their playoff position.
Instead, Golden State (48-30) fell 2 1/2
games behind fth-place Portland with four
games to play, including one at the Trail
Blazers on Sunday. Golden State is 1 1/2
games ahead of Phoenix and Dallas and two
ahead of Memphis.
Denver, which was eliminated in Game 6 of
the opening round of the playoffs at Golden
State last season, made sure they didnt have
to watch the Warriors celebrate against them
on the same oor again.
With injuries sideling six Nuggets regu-
lars, the Warriors overwhelmed Denvers dec-
imated team at the start to go ahead by 20
points in the second quarter. But the Nuggets
came back behind Mozgov and Faried, trail-
ing Golden State 53-43 at the half and 75-73
through three quarters before holding off the
warriors in the fourth.
NOTES: The Warriors missed a chance to
win 49 games for the rst time since winning
50 in the 1993-94 season. ... Lee missed his
seventh straight game for the Warriors with a
nerve injury in his right hamstring/back.
The team said theres no timetable for his
return. ... Denver is 2-1 against the Warriors
this season. The teams meet in the regular-
season nale Wednesday at Denver.

It has been a rough year for the Mustangs,

Division play. Their lone win came March
20 at South City.
Still, de Leon credits the Cap boys for

SAN FRANCISCO Tony Campana hit
an RBI single with two outs in the 10th
inning to lead the Arizona Diamondbacks to
their rst back-to-back wins of the season
with a 6-5 victory over the San Francisco
Giants on Thursday night.
Cliff Pennington had two RBIs and scored
the winning run for the Diamondbacks, who
won the nal two games of the series. Miguel
Montero also drove in two runs for Arizona.
Michael Morse hit a two-run double that
gave the Giants the lead, but an error by third
baseman Pablo Sandoval allowed the tying
run to score in the eighth and San Francisco
fell in extra innings to lose their rst home
series since last August against Boston.
Pennington hit a one-out single off
Yusmeiro Petit (0-1) in the 10th and then
stole second base on a 2-2 pitch to Campana
with two outs. Campana then blooped a sin-
gle just over the outstretched glove of sec-
ond baseman Brandon Hicks to score the
go-ahead run.
J.J. Putz (1-0) pitched a scoreless ninth
for the win and Addison Reed got three outs
for his third save in as many chances.
The Diamondbacks failed to score in the
seventh after loading the bases with no
outs, but got the tying run an inning later
on Sandovals bad throw.
With runners on rst and second and two
outs in the eighth, Campana hit a slow
grounder to Sandoval, who rushed his throw
to rst. The ball sailed over Brandon Belts
head allowing Gerardo Parra to score the
tying run from second.
The Giants held a pregame ceremony hon-
oring their former home, Candlestick Park,
which is set to be torn down later this year.

perfect, perfect conditions, Graeme

McDowell said after ghting to salvage a
72.
But there was something about the way
Scott played that grabbed most of the atten-
tion on such a gorgeous spring day in the
South. Golf has been waiting for a star to
take control all year, even more without
Tiger Woods at Augusta for the rst time in
20 years because of back surgery.
Scott was in control of his emotions and
his game all day except for once.
Walking over to the heart of Amen
Corner, the fans behind the 12th tee rose in
unison to cheer the champ.
The memory that will stick with me for-
ever today was walking up to the 12th tee
and everyone getting out of their seats as I
approached there, Scott said. It was great,
the level of respect that everyone has for
this golf tournament and what happens
here.
But then, he said with a smile, I went
and hit it in the water.
Scotts tee shot bounced off the front
slope and into Raes Creek amazingly, he
said it was his rst shot into the water on
that hole and he made double bogey to
fall out of the outright lead. He picked up a
birdie on the 14th, and three-putted for par
on both the par 5s on the back nine.
Still, there were few complaints.
Augusta National officials knew this
would be a gentle day of weather, and it was
clear they made sure the course was any-
thing but that. The hole locations were
severe for an opening round. With endless
sunshine, the greens became firmer and
quicker by the hour.
So many others paid the price.
Jason Dufner took a quadruple-bogey 9 on
the 13th hole with only one penalty shot.
The worst of his woes was a wedge from the
drop area that didnt even make it to the
creek. He wound up with an 80 in his rst
round in a major since winning the PGA
Championship last summer.
He was in good company. Phil Mickelson
had a pair of 7s on his card for the rst time
in ve years at a major, and his 76 matched
the highest opening round at Augusta for the
three-time Masters champion. U.S. Open
champion Justin Rose shot 40 on the front
and scrambled for a 76.
Jason Day had a 75 in his rst event in six
weeks.
Vijay Singh also opened with a 69 when
he was the defending champion in 2001, but
that was different. Conditions were easier
that year, and Singh was four shots behind.
On this day, only 19 players broke par.
Jimmy Walker, Kevin Stadler and Jonas
Blixt among the record 24 newcomers to
the Masters were in the group at 70. The
group at 71 included young (20-year-old
Jordan Spieth) and old (54-year-old Fred
Couples), and a former No. 1 in Rory .
It was just on one of those days it was
tough to get it close to the hole, McIlroy
said. Anything under par today was a good
score.
And it felt even better when one of those
scores belonged to a Masters champion
in this case, two of them. Watson was asked
about his comfort level at Augusta.
The comfort level is knowing you have a
green jacket already, he said.

Phil Mickelson tees off on the fth hole during the rst round of the Masters Thursday.
Mickelson struggled to a 4-over par 76 and is seven strokes behind the leader Bill Haas.
would-be third out of the sixth inning.
Facing Mustangs reliever Antonio
Martinucci with two on and two out, Liam
Clifford struck out but advanced to rst on a
wild pitch. On the play, Tommy Lopiparo
raced home from third to give the Cherokees
a 5-4 lead.
Weve been resilient with two outs all
year, Lopiparo said. We knew two runs
wasnt too much and we could come back
from that.
Sequoia senior Kenney Belanger earned
the win in relief to improve to 3-1.
Martinucci took the loss, dropping the jun-
ior right-hander to 3-2.
The Cherokees jumped out to a 2-0 lead
early with single runs in the third and
fourth. In the third, Liam Finn got things
started with a leadoff single. He moved to
second on a single by Matt Lopez and the
two advanced on a balk by Capuchino
starter Joe Galea. Lopez then scored on a
wild pitch to give Sequoia a 1-0 lead.
In the fourth, Sequoia junior Antonio
Arellano singled to start the inning.
Gonzalo Rodriguez followed with a long
double to left-center, allowing Arellano to
score all the way from rst base to stake the
Cherokees to a 2-0 lead.
But Capuchino went large in the bottom
of the fourth. Facing Sequoia starting pitch-
er Cameron Greenough, Anthony Orcholski
got things started with a double to right.
Samuel Caliz followed with a sacrice bunt
attempt that went for an ineld single, mov-
ing Orcholski to third. With one out, Riley
Gibbons reached on an ineld error, allow-
ing Orcholski to score. With two outs, Kyle
Patterson was hit by a pitch to load the
bases and ending Greenoughs afternoon.
With Belanger on in relief, Rory McDaid
greeted the senior right-hander with a bases-
clearing double to give Cap a 4-2 lead.
But Sequoia answered right back in a two-
run fth. Lopez started the rally with a one-
out walk. After a single by Clifford put run-
ners at rst and second, cleanup hitter Zane
Gelphman drove a double to left-center to
score Lopez and Clifford to tie it 4-4.
In the top of the sixth, the junior
Lopiparo just into the game as a late-
inning replacement reached base as the
eventual winning run with a booming triple
to left. Chris Ortiz reached on a hit by pitch
then stole second. After Lopiparo scored on
the strikeout-wild pitch, Ortiz also tried to
score on an ensuing wild pitch but was
throw out on a bang-bang play at the plate.
Cap looked to tie it up in the bottom of
the sixth. After a one-out single by Galea,
Ramon Enriquez drove a double to left-cen-
ter that would have scored Galea easily. But
the ball carried to the paved walkway in deep
left eld for a ground-rule double, forcing
Galea to remain at third base. Cap went on
to strand the would-be tying and go-ahead
runs in scoring position.
Its always tough (to lose), especially
when youre playing good baseball,
Capuchino manager Matt Wilson said.
Today we actually played good ball except
for a couple mistakes.
At 13-6 overall, Cap owns the most wins
of any team throughout the PAL. Sequoia
has won at a better rate than any team in the
PAL with a .767 winning percentage.

Former UNLV coach
Jerry Tarkanian in hospital
LAS VEGAS Former UNLV basketball
coach Jerry Tarkanian has been admitted to a
Las Vegas hospital after relatives say he was
feeling weak and having trouble breathing.
Tarkanians son, Danny Tarkanian, says
his 83-year-old father was
also struggling to keep
his eyes open when he
was taken to Valley
Hospital on Wednesday
night.
The elder Tarkanian
remained sedated at the
hospital Thursday morn-
ing while doctors tried to
determine what was
behind his ailments.
Tarkanian was inducted last year into the
Naismith Memorial Hall of Fame. He took
three schools to the NCAAtournament but is
best known for his teams at UNLVthat made
four Final Four appearances and won it all in
1990.
The coach won 784 games in his career,
509 of them at UNLV.

MASTERS LEADERBOARD
By Todd McCarthy
LOS ANGELES The Thin
Man with blood cocktails, an ode
to hipsterism through the ages, a
mainline shot of cool and a playful
tribute to artistic fetishism, Jim
Jarmuschs vampire romance
Only Lovers Left Alive is an
addictive mood and tone piece, a
nocturnal reverie that incidentally
celebrates a marriage that has last-
ed untold centuries. Almost noth-
ing happens in this minor-key drift
through a desolate, imperiled mod-
ern world, and yet it is the perenni-
al downtown filmmakers best
work in many years, probably since
1995s Dead Man, with which it
shares a sense of quiet, heady, per-
ilous passage.
Vampire stories come in all
shapes and sizes and the blessed
and aficted couple here is well-
dressed, madly sophisticated, has
impeccable taste in music and liter-
ature (the couples closest friend is
Christopher Marlowe) and is still in
love like newlyweds. The womans
younger sister considers them con-
descending snobs, but perhaps
thats just a negative way of
acknowledging that, given hun-
dreds of years of years of exposure
to art and culture, one would be a
fool not to have developed a high
level of discrimination in such mat-
ters.
Adam (Tom Hiddleston) has
become quite the recluse. Holed up
in an old house in an abandoned
part of Detroit, he plays vinyl clas-
sics and collects rare vintage gui-
tars brought to him by roadie type
Ian (Anton Yelchin). In the not
quite as depopulated streets of
Tangier, Eve (Tilda Swinton) seeks
out Marlowe (John Hurt), whose
Shakespeare connection is bandied
about. More to the point, however,
is his value as a source of the good
stuff puried blood their kind
can reliably consume now that
human aka zombie blood
Only Lovers is addictive
By Jake Coyle
NEW YORK Its tempting to
think of Jim Jarmuschs high-stand-
ing white hair as the mark of a light-
ning bolt that struck him long ago,
leaving him forever an eager receiver
for the electricity of inspiration.
My antennae are always up. If
something moves me, I want it to be
part of me, he says, wringing the
middle of his shirt. I want it to be
mine, whether its 17th century
English music or if it is punk rock or
if it is Outside jazz or if it is Flaubert
and Balzac or if it is David Foster
Wallace or even if it is (crime novel-
ist) Richard Stark.
He goes on, adding silent movies,
cartoons of the Fleischer brothers,
Dante. Its merely a tiny sampling. I
just collect and collect, he says, ges-
turing to his scribble-lled notebook,
which he left open to occasionally
reference during a recent midtown
interview.
Its the same spirit the nourish-
ment of art and culture that per-
vades Jarmuschs latest lm, Only
Lovers Left Alive, a deadpan tale of
the undead. Tilda Swinton and Tom
Hiddleston star as chic, long-living
vampires who, though deeply in love,
are currently living separately, in
Detroit and Tangier.
The lm bears none of the usual
genre conventions. They drink blood
from sherry glasses, blissfully drop-
ping out as if from a heroin high. But
mostly, Jarmuschs languorous vam-
pires (who were inspired by Mark
Twains The Diaries of Adam and
Eve) are vessels for taking a broad

Nestles Honestly Goodline that boasts of natural ingredients and offers more generous servings
at about 390 calories per box, rather than the 300 calories for regular Lean Cuisine meals.
By Candice Choi
NEW YORK Obsessing over calories
alone has left dieters with an empty feeling.
The calorie counting that dened dieting
for so long is giving way to other consider-
ations, like the promise of more ber or nat-
ural ingredients. That is chipping away at
the popularity of products like Diet Coke,
Lean Cuisine and Special K, which became
weight-watching staples primarily by strip-
ping calories from peoples favorite foods.
Part of the problem: Low-calorie foods
make people feel deprived. Now, people
want to lose weight while still feeling satis-
ed. And they want to do it without foods
they consider processed.
Kelly Pill has been dieting since her son
was born in 1990. But the 54-year-old resi-
dent of Covina, Calif., made changes to her
approach in recent years. She doesnt eat
Lean Cuisine microwavable meals as often
because she doesnt nd them that lling.
She also switched to Greek yogurt last year
to get more protein.
Regular yogurt is really thin, Pill said.
It was low in calories, but it wasnt l l-
ing.
Its not that people dont care about calo-
ries anymore. Nutrition experts still say
weight loss comes down to burning more
calories than you eat.
But dieters are sick of foods that provide
only eeting satisfaction and seem to make
them hungrier. The new thinking is that eat-
ing foods with more protein or fat keeps
will make dieters less likely to binge later,
even if theyre higher in calories.
People are recognizing that its not
enough to just go on a diet and lose weight.
Nutrition comes more into play, said
Margo Wootan, director of nutrition policy
at the Center for Science in the Public
Interest, a health advocacy group.
Many top brands are trying to keep up
with the trend:
Special K cereals sales are down 7 per-
cent in the past two years, according to IRI,
a market research rm based in Chicago.
Kellogg last year rolled out Special K

look at humanity. Theyre rst-hand wit-
nesses to history, reveling in all its accom-
plishments (from Christopher Marlowe to
Motown) and despairing at its failings (the
low stature of science).
Adam, morose and clad in black, collects
instruments and makes music with analog
equipment (supplied by Jarmuschs band,
Squrl). Eve, creamy and white, lls her suit-
case with books, from Don Quixote to
the drawings of Basquiat. They may be
undead, but Adam and Eve you might call
them hipsters are pulsing with excite-
ment for the glories of literature, music,
philosophy, architecture and science
much like Jarmusch.
I have really tried to chart my life to
have as much time as I could to investigate
interesting things because I feel its my
job, he says. When I was young and had
the great chance to spend some time with
Nicholas Ray, he said to me several times:
Making lms is not just about studying
cinema. Its about everything.
Jarmusch, 61, a New York icon and a god-
father to the independent cinema of the
1980s and 1990s, might seem a cool, aus-
tere gure, often hidden behind shades. But
in conversation, hes eager to connect,
sweetly sincere in his baritone voice about
the things that move him. He strives to
watch a lm a day, but laments that hes
only up to about 50 so far this year.
He became such a sponge, he says, grow-
ing up in the suburbs of Akron, Ohio,
thanks to his mother (a lm critic before he
was born) and his grandmother (who gave
him Proust when he was 16). They were
open to many things, he says.
When he arrived in New York in the
1970s to study poetry at Columbia, further
awakenings followed: rifing through used
vinyl at record stores, rummaging at the
Stand bookstore, spending nights at East
Village music clubs. He became part of the
same New York as Lou Reed, Andy Warhol
and Patti Smith
From his first, micro-budget film,
Permanent Vacation, to his more recent
The Limits of Control, his lms have
always had their own distinct, laconic
rhythm and raw minimalism. Travel is
often a stimulating force of drama.
Nighttime (like the nocturnal cab-ride
vignettes of Night on Earth) feels like
the natural habitat for the usually black-
clad Jarmusch.
He hopes that Only Lovers Left Alive
serves as a kind of epitaph to the beauty of
life: Im not an end-of-the-world guy, but I
do think we dont have much time left, he
says.
Though Jarmusch remains continually
enthralled by cinema, the increasing hard-
ships of film financing and distribution,
he says, sucks big time. It took him
seven years to get Only Lovers made. He
was also coerced into shooting on digital
for the first time and, to save money, film-
ing partly on a soundstage in Germany. I
felt like a wolf being domesticated, he
says.
I cant just play their game anymore,
says Jarmusch. Ive had it, really. And I
dont want to make another lm under the
circumstances I made Lovers Left Alive.
Instead, Jarmusch has been making music
more lately, which, he says, allow expres-
sion to come out of me. Among the many
projects hes juggling is a musical theater
piece about the inventor Nikola Tesla.
And though Jarmusch will always be rm-
ly identied with New Yorks once-gritty
Lower East Side, he now spends much of his
time amid nature at his remote house in the
Catskills. He calls himself an amateur
mycologist and an aspiring bird-watcher.
I had chipmunks that I fed for a while
that I never touched them but they
would walk on me, says Jarmusch. They
were so familiar. Id come outside and they
would sit right next to me. Just hanging
out. Not afraid of me. They know Im that
white-haired guy that brings them food.
JARMUSCH
has become dangerously contaminated.
This represents an unambiguous drug
addiction reference, to be sure, but it also
casts these vampires as an endangered
species and, increasingly, as potential trag-
ic gures, avatars of cultivation, sophisti-
cation and monogamous devotion that put
average humans to shame but may be
doomed now that their food supply has been
ruined. For his part, Adam sometimes
receives good stuff from a medical facility
supplier, Dr. Watson (Jeffrey Wright).
When, at the 40-minute point, Eve returns
to Adam in Detroit, there is instant rapture,
a perpetuation of the presumed longest love
affair in the world (a photo documents their
third wedding, in 1868). With the spirited
Eve the driving force in the relationship
more than the laid-back Adam, the two
British-accented connoisseurs loll around
the house, listen to great music, drink great
blood, speak about old acquaintances (Lord
Byron, Mary Wollstonecraft), are looked
down upon by a photo gallery of artistic
heroes (Buster Keaton, Mark Twain) and
take a nighttime tour in Adams old Jaguar
coupe of decimated Detroit.
To Adams irritation, they are soon joined
by Eves wild girl imp of a sister, Ava (Mia
Wasikowska), whose reckless vampiric
ways so disrupt their domestic tranquility
that the couple decides to decamp back to
Tangier, where Eve can count on a continued
supply of good stuff. When this is compro-
mised, a thimble of doubt and suspense
enters the equation, as the ancient pair con-
template their fate. Will this be the end, or
might they actually have to deign to
descend from their tower of renement and
rejoin the hunt?
Swinton is quite wonderful and unusually
accessible here in a generous, emotional,
tender performance. With a recessive part-
ner mostly devoted to interior experiences,
Eve must do most of the work to animate
their relationship and Swinton, wearing
long, nearly platinum-blond hair, gives
herself to this enterprise without going
over the top. Hiddleston, with the long-
haired look of a rock star, is required to be
far more withdrawn but is a credible bohemi-
an for the ages. Wasikowska supplies antic,
intentionally grating abandon as the dan-
gerous sister, Yelchin is sweet as Adams
unky and Hurt presents his 16th century
playwright as a crusty old wise man.
Physically and musically, the lm is love-
l y.
Only Lovers Left Alive, a Sony Pictures
Classic release, is rated R by the Motion
Picture Association of America for lan-
guage and brief nudity. Running time: 123

DAILY JOURNAL SENIOR CORRESPONDENT
INSIDE RODINS HANDS: ART,
TECHNOLOGY AND SURGERY, AT
THE CANTOR ARTS CENTER AT
STANFORD UNIVERSITY. Among the
most famous and inuential artists of his
age, Auguste Rodin (1840-1917) made the
human body his primary subject. He recog-
nized that the hand was among the most
powerful vehicles for communicating emo-
tion and over the course of his career mod-
eled dozens, many of which betray the pres-
ence of specific medical syndromes. Dr.
James Chang fell in love with the Rodin
Sculpture Garden at Stanford as an under-
graduate. Later, while training in plastic
and reconstructive surgery at the Stanford
University School of Medicine, his fasci-
nation grew as Dr. Chang saw signs in
Rodins anatomical sculptures of the med-
ical conditions he was learning to identify.
Now, as a teacher, Dr. Chang injects his
enthusiasm for this art into his undergradu-
ate seminar Surgical Anatomy of the Hand:
From Rodin to Reconstruction. His stu-
dents use advanced technology to study
Rodins sculptures of hands. Three-dimen-
sional scans of the sculptures combined
with CT scans of patients bones, nerves
and blood vessels create a new augmented
reality that reveals the pathologies
beneath the bronze and even allows stu-
dents to perform virtual surgery.
Now, at the Cantor Arts Center at Stanford
University, museum visitors can experi-
ence Rodins hands in much the same man-
ner as Dr. Changs students do. Inside
Rodins Hands: Art, Technology and
Surgery reveals what lies beneath the
skin of the bronze hands the underlying
anatomy that Dr. Chang imagined when he
encountered the sculptures at the Cantor
through the use of augmented reality. By
rotating an iPad in an arc around three of
Rodins hand sculptures, visitors can see
computer-generated graphics of bones,
nerves and blood vessels from varying
angles.
Cantor Director Connie Wolf said: The
exhibition, unique in how it merges art and
science, involved an unprecedented collab-
oration between four diverse groups at
Stanford: the Cantor Arts Center, Dr. Chang
and his students, the Division of Clinical
Anatomy and the Lane Medical Library. We
were all inspired by Dr. Chang and his pas-
sion.
The exhibition puts the study of anatomy
into historical context with medical texts
published between the 16th and 19th cen-
turies. Illustrations in these volumes, lent
by the Lane Medical Library and Stanfords
Special Collection, help visitors see how
earlier generations studied the anatomy of
the hand. Videos on view depict virtual
hand surgery and also highlight the unique-
ly collaborative nature of the exhibition.
The videos were created by the anatomy
departments staff and also by Arhana
Chattopadhyay, a Stanford medical student.
Visitors can also download an e-book creat-
ed by high school intern Alexandra
Bourdillon that summarizes the exhibi-
tions content.
Director Wolf noted: An important part
of the Cantors mission is to engage
Stanford students from across disciplines
so as to broaden their overall education
and world-view. This exhibition certainly
accomplishes that.
Admission to the Cantor Arts Center is
free. The Cantor is open 11 a.m.-5 p.m.
Wednesday to Sunday and until 8 p.m.
Thursday. On the Stanford campus, off Palm
Drive at Museum Way. Parking is free on
weekends and after 4 p.m. weekdays. For

NEW YORK CBS moved swiftly
Thursday to replace the retiring David
Letterman with Comedy Centrals Stephen
Colbert, who will take over the Late
Show next year and do battle with Jimmy
Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel for late-night
television supremacy.
Colbert, 49, has been hosting The
Colbert Report at 11:30 p.m. ET since
2005, in character as a fictional conserva-
tive talk-show host. The character will
retire with The Colbert Report.
Simply being a guest on David
Lettermans show has been a highlight of
my career, Colbert said. I never dreamed
that I would follow in his footsteps,
though everyone in late night follows
Daves lead.
Letterman, who turns 67 on Saturday,
announced on his show last week that he
would retire sometime in
2015, although he has-
nt set a date. CBS said
Thursday that creative
elements of Colberts
new show, including
where it will be based,
will be announced later.
Mayors of New York
and Los Angeles have
already publicly urged
the new Late Show
host to choose their
ci t y. New York would
appear to have the clear
edge, since Colbert is
already based in New
York and CBS owns the
Ed Sullivan Theater,
where the Late Show
has been taped since
Letterman took over in
1993.

hookah bars and smoking lounges, fearing
e-cigarettes could be as harmful as ciga-
rettes. It would also apply to retailers that
devote more than 15 percent of their total
oor area, or more than a 2-by-4-foot area of
shelf space, to e-cigarette sales, and would-
nt apply to retailers that sell e-cigarettes as
a smaller component of their businesses. In
the meantime, staff would review and study
potential zoning amendments to limit e-
cigarette sales, according to a staff report.
Until there are more federal guidelines and
scientic research, the city will hold off on
allowing businesses that predominately
carry e-cigarettes to open in the city.
Councilmembers are in favor of such
restrictions, including Vice Mayor Richard
Garbarino.
We cant tell people what to ingest, he
said. We want to restrict the number of ven-
ues people could purchase them at. I dont
want to see smoking parlors come into our
city. Parlors encourage young people to par-
ticipate in these things.
The violation for smoking an e-cigarette
has the same penalty as for smoking tobac-
co. The penalty would count as an infrac-
tion, coming with a maximum ne of $100
for a rst time violation, said Assistant City
Manager Jason Rosenberg.
E-CIGS
so-called Obamacare law. The opening
weeks of the enrollment period were marred
by widespread website woes, though the
administration rebounded strongly by
enrolling 7.1 million people by the March
31 deadline, exceeding initial expectations.
Enrollment has since risen to 7.5 million as
people were given extra time to complete
applications.
Even with the late surge in sign-ups, the
law remains unpopular with many
Americans and Republicans have made it a
centerpiece of their efforts to retake the
Senate in the fall.
Sebelius resignation could also set the
stage for a contentious conrmation hear-
ing to replace her. In a sign that the White
House is seeking to avoid a nomination
fight, the president was tapping Sylvia
Mathews Burwell, the director of the Ofce
of Management and Budget, to replace
Sebelius. Burwell was unanimously con-
rmed by the Senate for her current post.
AWhite House ofcial requested anonymi-
ty to confirm Sebelius resignation and
Burwells nomination ahead of the formal
announcement. Obama has not nominated
anyone to replace Burwell as budget direc-
tor.
Obama remained publicly supportive of
Sebelius throughout the rough rollout,
deecting Republican calls for her resigna-
tion. But she was conspicuously not stand-
ing by his side last week when he heralded
the sign-up surge during an event in the
White House Rose Garden.
The ofcial said the 65-year-old Sebelius
approached Obama last month about step-
ping down, telling him that the sign-up
deadline was a good opportunity for a tran-
sition and suggesting he would be better
served by someone who was less of a politi-
cal target.
A spokeswoman for Sen. Pat Roberts, a
Republican from Sebelius home state of
Kansas, called the resignation a prudent
decision given what she called the total
failure of Obamacare implementation.
Sebelius dropped no hints about her resig-
nation Thursday when she testied at a budg-
et hearing. Instead, she received congratula-
tions from Democratic senators on the sign-
up surge.
A popular former governor of Kansas,
Sebelius has been one of Obamas longest-
serving Cabinet ofcials and his only HHS
secretary. She was instrumental in shepherd-
ing the health care law through Congress in
2010 and implementing its initial compo-
nents, including a popular provision that
allows young people to stay on their par-
ents insurance plans until age 26.
But Sebelius relationship with the White
House frayed during the fall rollout of the
insurance exchanges that are at the center of
the sweeping overhaul. The president and
his top advisers appeared caught off guard
by the extent of the website woes, with
warnings from those working on the tech-
nology never making it to the West Wi ng.
After technical problems crippled online
sign-ups after the Oct. 1 launch, the White
House sent management expert and long-
time Obama adviser Jeffrey Zients to over-
see a rescue operation that turned things
around by the end of November. After taking
helm of the project, Zients said manage-
ment issues were partly to blame but did not
point the nger at any individuals.
Sebelius took personal responsibility for
the chaotic launch of the website and asked
the HHS inspector general to conduct an
investigation. That report is not expected
for months.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, a
staunch supporter of the health care law,
praised Sebelius as a forceful, effective and
essential secretary.
Secretary Sebelius was a leader in the
long effort to make history for our country
with passage of the Affordable Care Act,
the California Democrat said in a statement.
In nominating the 48-year-old Burwell,
Obama is tapping a Washington veteran
with a low-prole and the respect of some
Republicans on Capitol Hill. Though she
only joined the Obama administration last
year, Burwell held several White House and
Treasury posts during President Bill
Clintons administration.
Between her stints in the executive
branch, Burwell served as president of Wal-
Marts charitable arm and head of the global
development program at the Bill and
Melinda Gates Foundation.
If conrmed, Burwell will have to contend
with huge challenges related to the contin-
ued implementation of the health overhaul,
as well as the divisive politics surrounding
the law that show no sign of abating.
On the practical side, the administration
has to improve customer service for mil-
lions of Americans trying to navigate the
new system.

service with more than 70 languages.
The Friends have also helped obtain
more bestsellers, e-books and audio
books, Ocn said.
Libraries have always been on the
forefront of different formats and we
want to stay relevant to the communi-
t y. And right now, its a great time
because theres so much innovation
and so many different formats. And
even as we speak, theres someone
inventing something new, Ocn said.
So keeping the library current and rel-
evant, thats where the Friends of the
Library come in.
The Friends have acted in a wide
capacity throughout the years, Ocn
said. Theyve helped with program-
ming, story times, introduced large
print titles, helped secure money for
furniture and equipment and secured
special collections and ne art works,
Ocn said.
With the San Mateo Public Library
Foundation at the helm, the Friends
contributed to raising $10 million to
help remodel the citys libraries and
build the new main library on Third
Avenue, Ocn said.
The foundation continues to work
with and give thanks for the Friends
service, Kate Korsh, director of devel-
opment of the foundation, wrote in an
email.
The Friends of the Library have
been an integral part of the San Mateo
Public Library since 1964. Their com-
mitment to offering a wide selection of
reading material for all ages has played
an important role in creating libraries
for adults, children and families
throughout our community, Korsh
wrote.
The City Council also gave thanks
and, at Mondays meeting, Mayor
Robert Ross presented the Friends
with a proclamation commending the
group for its work, raising more than
$1.5 million during its history, imple-
menting reading programs such as pro-
viding books to those who are home-
bound, helping establish the Marina
Branch Library and for hosting the
annual three-day fall book sale.
The Friends say their work rewards
them as well.
Julie Thoman, 87, has been with the
Friends for about ve years and said
shes loved every minute of it.
Were volunteers, theres nothing
forcing us to be there. Were there
because we love it. I really believe in
volunteerism, I think its a wonderful
thing, Thoman said. For one thing, I
think it does help. But it also helps the
people who volunteer. I think it helps
the library, I think it helps the city, I
think maybe it helps the county. But
to a large degree I think it helps the
volunteers.
Part of her role is to help arrange
scheduling for collecting donations,
taking inventory and running the
bookstore, Thoman said. When she
began, there were only four other vol-
unteers, most who had been with the
Friends for 17 impressive years. Since
then, the number of Friends has grown
to 22, Thoman said.
Any group that gets long-term
members creates a history and a pride
and kind of a ow and just keeps it
going, Thoman said.
Sherry Fong has been an integral
part of the Friends since she and her
husband started over 17 years ago.
Meeting new people and spending
time with her friends has made the
years y by, Fong said.
Its being able to meet people,
serve the public and have fun with your
cohorts, Fong said.
Theres never a dull moment as
theres always something to do to help
out and the library is always full, Fong
said.
Thoman said she wanted to be a
librarian when she was younger and,
now that shes retired, one of her
biggest rewards is to see how libraries
inuence others.
I sit there every day and watch it.
Somehow this library has managed to
be a place for little children. Little
children love to be there. The pro-
grams, they encourage little kids,
Thoman said. I think its making
tomorrows readers.
The 50th anniversary celebration is
3 p.m. Wednesday, April 16 at the
Main Library, 55 W. Third Ave. For
more information on the library, the
annual book sale and on volunteering,

$1.76 million for the park makeover
but the low bidder came in at $1.99
million. With many other pressing
capital improvement needs in the city,
staff is recommending the City
Council at Monday nights meeting
reject all of the bids, reduce the scope
and costs and re-bid the changed plan.
The project likely wouldnt go out to
bid again for at least two months
which would push construction into
early 2015. Wet weather could delay
the work even further and require can-
cellation of another soccer season at
Crestview, Public Works Director Jay
Walter told the council in a report for
Mondays meeting.
Another possible challenge in rebid-
ding the project is that the new prices
might actually come in higher because
of the current economic climate.
Walter used as example the San Jose
State University football field
improvement project which was reject-
ed and rebid, costing the school an
extra $193,000.
If the City Council wants to immedi-
ately go ahead with the Crestview Park
renovation plan as bidded, it could use
the remaining $216,000 balance in
the Burton Park Phase II project fund.
General fund reserves would make up
the difference but be replaced by any
remaining contingency money after
the project ends.
Going this route would have con-
struction beginning likely in May
with completion by the end of
December.
Cost savings measures already made
include pre-purchasing the playground
equipment at a discounted price rather
than pay the contractors markup a
projected savings of $23,250 and
making several items alternatives so
that they can be excluded if the bids are
too high. These include the pathway
steps and basketball courts.
Other possible savings include
approximately $50,000 by omitting
the restroom upgrades and approxi-
mately $39,000 by removing a chain-
link fence from the project.
Mayor Mark Olbert said accepting
the lowest bid seems like the better
way to go because of the way construc-
tion costs are accelerating with the
improving Peninsula economy but
hes still considering the situation.
The bigger concern, he said, is what
the economy might mean for other
capital projects and hes asked staff to
reassess all the pending and proposed
projects for the upcoming budget
review.
The City Council approved the reno-
vation plan last year after some tug-of-
war over its components, in particular
the proposed use of synthetic turf at
the 1.1-acre park located on Crestview
Drive north of Brittan Avenue. After
the Planning Commission deadlocked
over the turf, the City Council rst
shot down the idea and then adopted a
makeover plan that incorporated
design elements of multiple propos-
als. The renovations call for installing
age-appropriate playground equip-
ment, renovating resurfacing and
marking the basketball area, reducing
the parking spaces by two, adding a
small bleacher or goal storage to the
hillside, saving a beloved redwood tree
and nding more at areas for the local
astronomers.

FRIDAY, APRIL 11, 2014
ARIES (March 21-April 19) Keep an up-to-date
record of your business contacts. Dont be shy if
you are looking to change or advance your career.
Networking with friends can prove benecial, as well.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You will feel energetic
and in high spirits. Get together with a close friend
for a day of fun and laughter. A shopping spree or
sightseeing excursion could lead to romance.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Your home may
not be the safe haven that youd like it to be.
Minor disagreements could develop into major
arguments. You can avoid trouble if you keep your
opinions to yourself.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) Stop hesitating and
take the plunge. Your life is not going to change if
you wait for others to make the first move. Take the
initiative and chase your goals.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Keep your eyes and ears
open to any financial suggestions you receive.
Be ready to take action. Moving decisively and
quickly could pave the way to an unexpected
moneymaking venture.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Overindulgence is not
an answer to your problems. If you are distressed or
confused, talk it out with someone you trust. Someone
from your past is likely to want to re-enter your life.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) You may discover some
money that you had forgotten about. Now is the best
time to complete any unnished chores or tackle tasks
that you have been putting off.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Find an imaginative
way to sell your ideas. Your talents will go unnoticed
unless you market your skills effectively. Take any
opportunity to help others in your community.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) You should remain
observant and tight-lipped today. If you are too open,
you will leave yourself open to criticism. Dont give
anyone the chance to use your words against you.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Changes are
happening all around you. Now is a good time for
reflection and contemplation. Imagine ways to
improve your life, and examine different avenues
that will help get you there.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) You may be intrigued
by a fascinating opportunity. Before you sign
something or make an investment, look into the legal
details. Rather than take a gamble, you should make
an informed decision.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) You are likely to meet
someone who will take a special place in your heart.
Talking about your intentions will lead to long-term
plans. Put love and romance rst.

A man changes money at a currency exchange ofce in Kiev,Ukraine.
By Vladimir Isachenkov
and Mataliya Vasilyeva
MOSCOW Vladimir Putin warned
Europe on Thursday that it may face a shut-
down of Russian natural gas supplies if it
fails to help Ukraine settle its enormous
Russian gas bill a debt that far exceeds a
bailout package offered by the International
Monetary Fund.
The Russian presidents letter to 18 most-
ly Eastern European leaders, released
Thursday by the Kremlin, aimed to divide
the 28-nation European Union and siphon
off to Russia the billions that the interna-
tional community plans to lend to Ukraine.
It was all part of Russias efforts to retain
control over its struggling neighbor, which
is teetering on the verge of nancial ruin
and facing a pro-Russian separatist mutiny
in the east.
Putins message is clear: The EU has tried
to lure Ukraine from Russias orbit and into
its fold, so it should now foot Ukraines gas
bill or face the countrys economic col-
lapse and a disruption of its own gas sup-
plies.
The tough warning raises the ante ahead of
international talks on settling the
Ukrainian crisis that for the rst time will
bring together the United States, the
European Union, Russia and Ukraine.
Hundreds of pro-Russian protesters
some armed were still occupying
Ukrainian government buildings in
Donetsk and Luhansk while authorities
sought a peaceful solution Thursday to the
five-day standoff. And in northwest
Romania, U.S. and Romanian forces kicked
off a week of joint military exercises.
