San Mateo man to plead guilty

for role in bid rigging, fraud
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A San Mateo man has agreed to plead

guilty for his role in bid rigging and fraud
conspiracies at public real estate foreclosure
auctions, the U.S. Department of Justice
announced Thursday.
Felony charges were filed against Ramin
Yeganeh, 48, in an ongoing investigation
that has led to charges being filed against
72 individuals for bid rigging in Alameda,
Contra Costa, San Mateo and San Francisco
counties.
Yeganeh was also charged with conspiring to use the mail to carry out a scheme to
fraudulently acquire title to selected Alameda
County properties sold at public auctions.
The Department of Justice alleges
Yeganeh made and received payoffs and
diverted money to co-conspirators that
would have otherwise gone to mortgage
holders and other beneficiaries by holding
second, private auctions open only to members of the conspiracy between May 2008
and October 2010.
Selected properties were then awarded to
the conspirators who submitted the highest
bids in the second, private auctions. The
private auctions often took place at or near
the courthouse steps where the public auctions were held, according to the

Comment on
or share this story at
www.smdailyjournal.com
Department of Justice.
Yeganeh, the former owner of American
Mortgage Realty in San Mateo, was also
sued in San Mateo County for allegedly
bilking an elderly Redwood City woman out
of her about-to-be-foreclosed-on home in
1998 in an elaborate loan scheme, according to court documents.
He was ordered to pay more than
$400,000 in restitution to the victim, Edith
Ingram, who lost her home of 40 years to
Yeganeh.
Ingrams attorneys are still seeking millions in fees from the case, according to a
complaint filed in San Mateo County
Superior Court Sept. 4, 2014.
He faced 45 criminal charges in 1999 in
San Mateo County for embezzlement, illegally operating a foreclosure consultancy
business and filing false deeds of trust in
cases involving Ingram and five other victims.
He pleaded no contest to the crimes in
2001 and was sentenced to six months in
county jail, five years probation and ordered
to pay the victims $53,000 in restitution,

District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said

Thursday.
In October, a federal grand jury indicted
five other real estate investors for allegedly
rigging bids at public auctions of foreclosed
properties outside the San Mateo County
courthouse in Redwood City.
The eight-count indictment against
Joseph Giraudo, Raymond Grinsell, Kevin
Cullinane, James Appenrodt and Abraham
Farag alleged that each agreed to stop bidding or not bid at all on properties in San
Mateo County in return for payoffs.
Our Northern California real estate
investigations have yielded more pleas than
any other Antitrust Division matter in
recent memory, but our work is not done,
Assistant Attorney General Bill Baer of the
Justice Departments Antitrust Division
wrote in a statement Thursday. The sheer
number of individuals involved in these
conspiracies only emphasizes how critical
it is that we remain committed to investigating and prosecuting those who have corrupted the public foreclosure auction
process.
Yeganeh faces up to 40 years in federal
prison and $2 million in fines.

California court issues ruling about out-of-control kids

By Sudhin Thanawala
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO The state can

remove an out-of-control child from the custody of a parent even if the mother or father
is not to blame for the childs behavior, a
California appeals court said Thursday.
If children face substantial risk of harming themselves, it doesnt matter whether
the parent did anything intentional to put
them in that position, the 2nd District
Court of Appeal ruled.
When a child thereby faces a substantial
risk of serious physical harm, a parents
inability to supervise or protect a child is
enough by itself to invoke the juvenile
courts dependency jurisdiction, the court
said in its 3-0 ruling.
The court disagreed with another state
appellate court that ruled in 2010 that a parent had to be shown to be culpable for a fail-

ure or inability to supervise or protect a

child. Such conflicts between appeals courts
are often resolved by the state Supreme
Court.
Thursdays ruling goes against the commonly accepted understanding that a court
has to find the parents did something wrong
to remove the child, said Dan Mayfield, a
San Jose attorney who specializes in juvenile law.
It broadens the governments power, he
said.
The ruling came in the case of a Los
Angeles County mother whose teen daughter repeatedly ran away from home and had a
child at the age of 15. The appellate court
said the girl remained incorrigible despite
her mothers best efforts, which included
looking for her each time she left home,
sending her to live with her grandparents
and calling the police and Los Angeles
County Department of Children and Family
Services for help. The mother was identified

in court documents only as Lisa E. and her

daughter as R.T.
(The) mother in this case was neither
neglectful nor blameworthy in being unable
to supervise or protect her daughter, the
court said.
But state law is clear that children can still
be taken if they have suffered or are at substantial risk of suffering serious harm that a
parent is unable to stop, Associate Justice
Brian Hoffstadt wrote.
We do appreciate the clarification the
court made that the welfare of the child is
whats paramount here, said Armand
Montiel, a spokesman for the Los Angeles
County Department of Children and Family
Services. Our work is based on the fact that
the childs safety is job one.
The courts ruling upheld a juvenile
courts decision to assert control over R.T.
and allow the county to place her elsewhere.
The county placed her back with her grandparents.

California moves to kill

the lawn, save the water
By Ellen Knickmeyer
and Gillian Flaccus
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LONG BEACH Whats it going to take

to get people to use a lot less water in
drought-stricken
California,
the
Technicolor landscape of lush yards, emerald golf courses and aquamarine swimming
pools?
Residents may be about to find out as
California imposes the first mandatory
statewide water-use restrictions later this
year.
Gov. Jerry Brown on Wednesday ordered a
25 percent overall cutback in water use by
cities and towns, but not farms, in the most
sweeping drought measures ever undertaken
by the nations most populous state.
The crackdown comes as California and
its nearly 40 million residents move toward
a fourth summer of drought with no relief in
sight. State reservoirs have a years worth
of water, and with record low snowfall over
the winter there wont be much to replenish
them. Wells in some parts of the state are
going dry as groundwater levels fall.
On Thursday, retired secretary Brenda
Johnson stood in the doorway of her
Sacramento home contemplating her lovingly tended lawn and azalea bushes.
Johnson did not love the idea of brown as
the new green.

Homeowners and water districts that violate the new rules will be subject to fines, but many
of the enforcement details have yet to be worked out.
With the money I put into it, I dont want
it to go dry, said Johnson, who got a warning letter from the city last year for watering
her front yard on the wrong day.
I dont want a dead lawn, she said. But
change is hard, and you do adjust.
In Southern Californias sunbathed city of
Long Beach, homeowner Katherine Rusconi
stood among the bright red, pink and yellow succulents and desert plants that make
up her front yard, basking in the knowledge

of being ahead of the game.

The city of Long Beach gave her $3,000
in rebates for ripping out her own lawn less
than two years ago. Some of her neighbors
have since followed her lead, making the
block a showpiece of water-saving,
wildlife-friendly yards.
With so much of Southern California a
desert climate, this should have been in
place for some time, Rusconi said of the
restrictions.

State eyes deadline for shutting more oilfield wells

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO California regulators

on Thursday proposed an Oct. 15 deadline for
starting to close more of the 2,000-plus oilindustry wells that funnel waste and other fluids into federally protected underground water
reserves.
State lawmakers, the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency and environmental organizations stepped up pressure this year on
state oil and gas regulators to stop injection
of the wastewater and other fluid into current

and potential sources of drinking water.

A state audit ordered by the EPA determined
last year that state oil and gas regulators had
Improperly granted more than 2,500 permits
authorizing oil companies to inject potentially contaminating fluids into water basins
that are classified as clean enough to qualify
for federal protection under the U.S. Safe
Drinking Water Act.
An Associated Press analysis found the
state had granted hundreds of the permits
since 2011, despite increasing warnings
from the EPA.

State officials told a state legislative hearing last month that water aquifers contaminated by oil industry injections are all but
impossible to clean.
We understand public concern about their
water, senior state oil and gas regulator
Steve Bohlen said Thursday in a statement
outlining the Department of Conservations
planned steps for dealing with the injections.
Since last summer, the state has closed 23

Megachurch leader dies at 88
ARTESIA The Rev. Robert H. Schuller
didnt wait for the faithful to flock to his
upstart church in Southern California
he took his message to
them.
As the car culture
flourished in post-World
War II California, the
brash Iowa-born pastor
began preaching from
the roof of a concession
stand at a drive-in movie
theater, displaying a
Robert Schuller passion and a marketing genius that established him as a father of the megachurch
movement that would soon sweep the
nation.
But Schuller didnt stop there. In 1970,
he reached out to the masses beyond his
home base in the Los Angeles suburbs
with his Hour of Power television program, which was broadcast into millions
of homes every Sunday over the next two
decades. He also constructed the soaring,
glass-paned Crystal Cathedral that became
the touchstone of his storied ministry.
The world-famous televangelist and
author memorialized in decades of recorded
sermons and books died early Thursday at a
care facility in Artesia, daughter Carol
Schuller Milner said. He was 88.

Two women arrested on

charges they plotted to build bomb
NEW YORK Two women were arrested
Thursday on charges they plotted to wage
violent jihad by building a homemade
bomb and using it for a Boston Marathontype attack.
One of the women, Noelle Velentzas, had
been obsessed with pressure cookers
since the Boston Marathon attacks in
2013 and made jokes alluding to explosives after receiving one as a gift, according to a criminal complaint. And it says in
a conversation with an undercover investigator about the womens willingness to
fight, she pulled a knife and asked, Why
cant we be bad b-----s?
The complaint unsealed in federal court
in Brooklyn names Velentzas and her former roommate, Asia Siddiqui, as the targets of an undercover investigation into
the thwarted homegrown terror plot.

Al-Qaida in Yemen captures a

southern city, frees inmates
By Ahmed Al-Haj
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SANAA, Yemen Al-Qaida militants traveling in convoys flying

black banners captured a major
port city in southern Yemen on
Thursday, seizing government
buildings and freeing inmates
from a prison, including a top
Saudi-born leader, security officials said.
The fall of Mukalla the capital of Yemens largest province,
Hadramawt highlighted how al-

Qaida is expanding its foothold in

Yemen, taking advantage of the
turmoil as a Saudi-led coalition
backing the countrys beleaguered
president tries to fend off a
takeover by Shiite rebels.
Mukallas fall came as the
rebels, known as Houthis, made
dramatic advances in one of the
main strongholds of the presidents loyalists, the southern city
of Aden. The rebels broke into the
center of Aden and briefly captured a presidential palace in the
city.

Judge orders California to

pay for inmates sex change

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO A federal
judge on Thursday ordered
Californias corrections department to provide a transgender
inmate with sex change surgery,
the first time such an operation
has been ordered in the state.
U.S. District Court Judge Jon
Tigar in San Francisco ruled that
denying sex reassignment surgery
to 51-year-old Michelle-Lael
Norsworthy violates her constitutional rights. Her birth name is
Jeffrey Bryan Norsworthy.
The ruling marks just the second
time nationwide that a judge has
issued an injunction directing a
state prison system to provide the
surgery, said Ilona Turner, legal
director at the Transgender Law
Center in Oakland, which helped
represent Norsworthy.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark.

Lawmakers in Arkansas and

Indiana
passed
legislation
Thursday that they hoped would
quiet the national uproar over new
religious objections laws that
opponents say are designed to
offer a legal defense for anti-gay

discrimination.
The Arkansas House voted 7617 to adopt a revised bill after
Republican Gov. Asa Hutchinson
asked for changes in the wake of
mounting criticism. Hutchinson
signed it only moments after the
vote, saying the new version recognizes that we have a diverse
workforce and a diverse culture.
A parallel process played out at
the Indiana Capitol as the House
and Senate passed changes to a law

signed last week by GOP Gov.

Mike Pence, who quickly
approved the revisions.
Over the past week, this law has
become a subject of great misunderstanding and controversy across
our state and nation, Pence said in
a statement. However we got here,
we are where we are, and it is important that our state take action to
address the concerns that have been
raised and move forward.
The new legislation marks the

first time sexual orientation and

gender identity have been mentioned in Indiana law.
The Arkansas measure is similar
to a bill sent to the governor earlier this week, but Hutchinson said
he wanted it revised to more closely mirror a 1993 federal law.
The Indiana amendment prohibits service providers from
using the law as a legal defense for
refusing to provide goods, services, facilities or accommodations.

Nuke deal: World powers, Iran

seal breakthrough framework
By George Jahn and Matthew Lee
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LAUSANNE, Switzerland Capping

exhausting and contentious talks, Iran and
world powers sealed a breakthrough agreement Thursday outlining limits on Irans
nuclear program to keep it from being able
to produce atomic weapons. The Islamic
Republic was promised an end to years of
crippling economic sanctions, but only if
negotiators transform the plan into a comprehensive pact.
They will try to do that in the next three
months.
The United States and Iran, longtime
adversaries who hashed out much of the
agreement, each hailed the efforts of their
diplomats over days of sleepless nights in
Switzerland. Speaking at the White House,
President Barack Obama called it a good
deal that would address concerns about
Irans nuclear ambitions. Iranian Foreign
Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif called it a
win-win outcome.
Those involved have spent 18 months in
broader negotiations that were extended
twice since an interim accord was reached
shortly after Iranian President Hassan
Rouhani entered office. That deal itself was
the product of more than a year of secret
negotiations between the Obama administration and Iran, a country the U.S. still
considers the worlds leading state sponsor
of terrorism.
Opponents of the emerging accord,
including Israel and Republican leaders in
Congress, reacted with skepticism. They
criticized the outline for failing to do
enough to curb Irans potential to produce
nuclear weapons or to mandate intrusive

This deal
is not based on
trust. Its based on
unprecedented
verification.
Barack Obama

enough inspections. Obama disagreed.

This framework would cut off every
pathway that Iran could take to develop a
nuclear weapon, he declared. This deal is
not based on trust. Its based on unprecedented verification.
If implemented, the understandings
reached Thursday would mark the first time
in more than a decade of diplomatic efforts
that Irans nuclear efforts would be rolled
back.
It commits Tehran to significant cuts in
centrifuges, the machines that can spin uranium gas to levels used in nuclear warheads. Of the nearly 20,000 centrifuges
Iran now has installed or running at its
main enrichment site, the country would be
allowed to operate just over 5,000. Much
of its enriched stockpiles would be neutralized. A planned reactor would be reconstructed so it produced no weapons-grade
plutonium. Monitoring and inspections by
the U. N. nuclear agency would be
enhanced.
Americas negotiating partners in Europe
strongly backed the result. President
Francois Hollande of France, which had
pushed the U. S. for a tougher stance,
endorsed the accord while warning that
sanctions lifted can be re-established if
the agreement is not applied.

Israel cool to Iran deal, may

struggle to rally opposition
By Josef Federman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

JERUSALEM Israeli Prime Minister

Benjamin Netanyahu condemned the international communitys framework nuclear agreement with Iran early Friday, putting him on a
collision course with the United States and
other close allies as the world tries to close in
on a final deal in the coming months.
Netanyahu, who had been outspoken critic
of the worlds negotiations with Iran, said he
voiced his strong opposition to the deal,
negotiated by world powers and Iran in
Lausanne, Switzerland, in a phone call with
President Barack Obama. A deal based on
this framework would threaten the survival of
Israel, he said.
But with the deal being welcomed around
the globe, Netanyahu could find have a tough
time trying to rally opposition to it as it is
finalized ahead of a June 30 deadline. His best
bet could lie with the Republican-dominated
U.S. Congress.
Netanyahu believes Iran is trying to develop a nuclear bomb a concern that has been

shared by much of the

world. He considers a
nuclear-armed Iran a threat
to Israels very existence,
given Iranian leaders
calls for the destruction of
the Jewish state, Irans
support for hostile militant groups across the
region and its developBenjamin
ment of long-range balNetanyahu
listic missiles.
The framework deal includes a system of
limits and inspections on Iranian nuclear
facilities, but falls short of Israeli demands to
dismantle the program. Netanyahu believes
Iran cannot be trusted, and that leaving certain facilities intact would allow the Iranians
to reach the capability of building a bomb.
Such a deal would not block Irans path to
the bomb. It would pave it, Netanyahu said.
Yuval Steinitz, his Cabinet minister who
monitors the Iranian nuclear program, said
Israel would continue to push to cancel or at
least improve the deal as it is finalized ahead
of a June 30 deadline.

Militants kill 147 at

university in Kenya
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

GARISSA, Kenya Al-Shabab gunmen

rampaged through a university in northeastern Kenya at dawn Thursday, killing 147 people in the groups deadliest attack in the East
African country. Four militants were slain by
security forces to end the siege just after
dusk.
The masked attackers strapped with
explosives and armed with AK-47s singled
out non-Muslim students at Garissa
University College and then gunned them
down without mercy, survivors said. Others
ran for their lives with bullets whistling
through the air.
Amid the massacre, the men took dozens of
hostages in a dormitory as they battled

troops and police before the operation ended

after about 13 hours, witnesses said.
When gunfire from the Kenyan security
forces struck the attackers, the militants
exploded like bombs, Interior Minister
Joseph Nkaissery said, adding that the shrapnel wounded some of the officers.
Al-Shabab spokesman Ali Mohamud Rage
said fighters from the Somalia-based extremist group were responsible. The al-Qaidalinked group has been blamed for a series of
attacks in Kenya, including the siege at the
Westgate Mall in Nairobi in 2013 that killed
67 people, as well as other violence in the
north. The group has vowed to retaliate
against Kenya for sending troops to Somalia
in 2011 to fight the militants staging crossborder attacks.

Yes on Measure P

or more than a decade, local

schools have contended with yo-yo
funding depending on the states
scal condition and despite minimum funding requirements set forth by Proposition
98, local district budgeting has been an
exercise in planning for the worst and hoping for the best.
While the state funding situation has stabilized in recent years because of the economic turnaround, by no means can one
contend that school funding has. It is better than in years past when districts saw
their budget depleted by state takeaways
but certain districts still face an uncertain
future with new requirements mandated by
the Common Core state standards. The
states Local Control Funding Formula has
removed at least a score of funding categories in lieu of more specic channels to
ow into low-income areas with revenue
limit districts. So districts without that
low-income characteristic are seeing new
requirements without new channels of funding.

Editorial
So it is with the San Carlos Elementary
School District, a revenue limit district,
meaning it gets funding based on its number of pupils, rather than basic aid, which
are largely funded through local property
taxes. The strange formula has been in play
for years and affects school districts trying
to plan accordingly. Essentially, the San
Carlos district relies on a state funding formula but does not benet from the new
LCFF categorical funding.
Now, the district is asking San Carlos
property owners in an all-mail ballot to
consider an extension of two parcel taxes
of around $78 and $110 with an increase of
$58 a year to help raise about $1.6 million
a year for six years. The primary rationale
for the request made through Measure P is
to ensure the district has the money it
needs to keep its teachers and provide reasonable class sizes and enrichment pro-

grams. The San Carlos Education

Foundation already does its part and raised
$2.45 million last scal year so its not as
if this is the sole source of additional funding.
Those against this measure suggest the
district should live within its means and
that teachers dont need additional pay.
Consider though, that the teachers received
a mere 2 percent raise last year, which
could be considered a cost of living
allowance. Recent negotiations did get
somewhat contentious and this additional
funding would provide some wiggle room
in the future while ensuring that inconsistent state funding will be supplemented.
Measure P is no small sum, $246 a year
per parcel adds up particularly when combined with a growing tax bill. But it is a
wise investment in the citys schools, its
teachers and its students. As any real estate
agent will tell you, good schools means
higher property values but they also mean
a better community that is willing to
ensure that education matters.

Les Williams
Editor,
I note with sadness the passing of Leslie
Williams of San Mateo (Tuskegee Airman
Les Williams dies at 95 in the April 1 edition of the Daily Journal).
About 10 years ago, my then colleague
and now Congressman Paul Cook helped
organize a recognition luncheon, honoring
a military veteran in each of the Assembly
and Senate districts in California.
I had the pleasure of selecting Les
Williams to represent the 19th Assembly
District which then comprised most of San
Mateo County. Mr. Williams is rightfully
recognized as a pioneer pilot and one of the
Tuskegee Airmen of World War II.
At that luncheon in Sacramento, each
veteran was introduced, stood briey and
received polite applause from the audience.
That is, until Mr. Williams was introduced,
at which point the entire assemblage stood
and gave him sustained applause, in recognition of his contributions as a member of
that famed group. May he rest in peace.

is to block off all the exits. I wonder how

many people understood the signicance of
the fact that Iran refused to discuss its intercontinental ballistic missile program as
part of the nuclear talks. The Iranians are
not stupid enough to have put all their eggs
in one basket.
Even if Iran is prevented from enriching
uranium to levels needed to produce a warhead, they can simply buy them from North
Korea, against whom no restrictions have
ever been enforced. The warheads can be
mounted on Iranian ICBMs without violating any agreement, and a nuclear Iran will
be an instant reality. ICBMs have no purpose other than the delivery of nuclear warheads.
In the meantime, President Barack Obama
can take the credit, as his legacy, for having forced Iran to give up its right to
enrich uranium, but will not take the blame
for utterly failing to stop a nuclear Iran
from coming into being.
Either the P5+1 nations were snookered,
or this was a deliberate oversight by our
star-studded negotiating team. Thats why
the only way to prevent a nuclear Iran from
emerging was to pay attention to Israeli
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who
insisted that Iran alsostop being the
largest sponsor of global terror as part of
the deal, before lifting any sanctions. They
would never have agreed to that.

Idea whose time

has come, maybe

was recently talking to my friend, we

shall call him Pierre, about the high
cost of living in this area while he was
hand-washing his 28-year-old Ford F-150
with brief spurts from his nozzled hose.
Cant waste the water. Eventually, I asked
him what he thought of the rising rents and
day care costs.
Outrageous, he exclaimed with little
prompting. Outlandish. Unbearable. Dont
know how you young people do it.
Flattering to be called young, but Ill take
it.
But he has a solution, he says. Its
like Uber. Or that
Airbnb. Grandparent
sharing.
Pierre is a reader
and follows the
Daily Journal religiously. He calls us
wily, which I guess
is kind of a compliment. Anyway, he
took great interest
in our recent series of stories about high
rents and how some are calling for tenant
protection. Rent control is a bad idea, he
says. But the landlords are being a-holes
(his word, not mine) by hiking rents too
much. Pierre said he noticed a suggestion for
tiny houses in those series of stories by
that Silverfarb fella. Hes seen those shows
on HGTV or the FYI channel about tiny
houses. He thinks theyre funny but also
interesting. You see, some of those tiny
houses can be placed on trailers, which can
go into peoples backyards. Now, most people just have a bunch of junk in their backyard anyway, maybe some grass youre not
supposed to water anymore and maybe some
rocks. Perfect spot for one of those trailered
tiny houses. But just who would live in one
of those?
Grandparents, he said. Not necessarily
yours, but ones who are lonely in their big
homes in the hills. After all, second units
are sometimes known as granny units.
You get them out of those big homes in the
hills and allow big families to live there.
For some small rent, of course. This isnt
France, he said. Then you get them in a tiny
house that you can drive place to place and
voila! Instant day care. The grandparents are
no longer bored, by any stretch, and they
can be trailered off when the children grow
big enough for school. These tiny houses
cant cost that much, and whatever they do
cost would be offset by the savings from
paying for day care. Parents can go off to
work without worrying about getting to day
care on time or picking them up on time, or
what they will have for lunch. The shared
grandparents can hang out in the house,
watch some Ellen on the cable during the
nap, and give a general status report when
the parents arrive home. Maybe take the
kids to the park. Play with dolls. Date
night? Covered!
But what about the real grandparents?
Well, Pierre says, many of them live out of
the area because its too costly around here,
so they wont mind. Besides, the time and
money saved by the parents means quick
trips out of town to see the real grandparents wont be so strenuous. Besides, the
shared grandparents may want a break too.
They can watch the house when youre
gone. And maybe catch a pay-per-view on
the at screen.
I must have been looking at him quizzically because, at the end of his soliloquy, he
paused to say, Youd dig it the most.
Anyway, thats Pierres suggestion. And
he might be onto something. Or maybe not.
But its as good as a solution to several
problems as Ive heard from so-called
experts.
Now about those scoundrels at the air
board that want to require replaces be converted to gas when the house is sold? Pierre
has a thing or two to say about that idea.

Major U.S. stock indexes closed

slightly higher on Thursday, rebounding from a two-day slide as investors
looked ahead to the start of the next
round of corporate earnings beginning next week.
Traders drew encouragement from
the latest economic data, particularly
a government report indicating a
steep drop in applications for unemployment benefits last week. That
appeared to reassure investors that the
government will report solid job
growth for March.
There is a little bit of an expectation that the jobs number will come
in good, said JJ Kinahan, TD
Ameritrades chief strategist. That
report is due out Friday, when markets
will be closed for Good Friday.
Consumer discretionary stocks were
among the biggest risers. The price of
oil fell back below $50 a barrel after
the U.S., five other world powers and
Iran reached an agreement that could
soon lift sanctions on Iran and allow
the country to export more crude.
The Dow Jones industrial average
gained 65.06 points, or 0.4 percent,
to 17,763.24. The 30-company index
is down 0.3 percent for the year.
The S&P 500 index rose 7. 27

points, or 0.4 percent, to 2,066.96.

The index is now up 0.4 percent for
the year.
The Nasdaq composite added 6.71
points, or 0.1 percent, to 4,886.94.
The tech-heavy index ended is up
about 3.2 percent this year.
Trading got off to a turbulent start.
Major indexes briefly turned lower at
midday before moving higher, a trend
that held the rest of the day.
Investors have been weighing
mixed economic data as they try to
gauge how corporate earnings will
unfold in coming weeks.
Earlier in the week, they got a dash
of positive data on consumer confidence, spending and home prices, but
also discouraging reports on hiring,
construction spending and manufacturing.
Thursdays economic data gave
investors more reasons to be optimistic.
The Labor Department said applications for unemployment benefits fell
sharply last week to a seasonally
adjusted 268,000. The decrease is a
sign of a strong job market despite
evidence of tepid economic growth in
the opening months of 2015.
The four-week trend continues to go
in the right direction, noted Tim
Dreiling, senior portfolio manager at
U.S. Bank Wealth Management.

New data on U.S. factory orders also

helped lift the market. The Commerce
Department said orders edged up 0.2
percent in February, breaking a sixmonth losing streak. Excluding
volatile transportation orders, factory orders rose 0.8 percent, the most
since June.
Meanwhile,
the
Commerce
Department said that the nations
trade deficit plunged 16.9 percent to
$35.4 billion in February.
Financial analysts anticipate the
Labor Department will report Friday
that employers added 248,000 jobs
last month, according to FactSet.
Employers added 295, 000 jobs in
February.
Earnings for companies in the S&P
500 index are expected to be down 3
percent overall, according to S&P
Capital IQ. That would be the first
decline in quarterly earnings since
the third quarter of 2009, the firm
said.
Investors have reduced their expectations for corporate earnings due to
concerns over the impact that falling
oil prices and a strong dollar may
have on big companies.
All told, nine of the 10 sectors in
the S&P 500 rose, led by consumer
discretionary stocks. The sector also
leads the index for the year with a
gain of 4.8 percent.

New scoring system aims to help people with poor credit

By Ken Sweet
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK People struggling with a

bad credit score, or lack of one, could benefit
from a program rolling out in the next few
months aimed at making it easier to get a
Visa or MasterCard.
The company behind the widely-used FICO
credit score announced Thursday a pilot program to help millions of Americans get easier access to credit, based on their record of
paying utility bills, instead of their history
of loan repayments.
The potential reach of the program is huge.
An estimated 53 million Americans, or a
quarter of the U.S. adult population, dont
have FICO scores created by the company
Fair Isaac. Roughly 90 percent of all lending

decisions credit card applications and auto

loans, among others are based on that
score. Banks would normally deny credit to
anyone without one, or they could charge
them significantly higher interest rates,
because the applicants would be considered
risky. Scores range from 300 poor to
850 perfect and are determined by a
borrowers credit payment history, outstanding balances and length of credit history.
These consumers are often the young,
without an established credit history, or
immigrants, who are new to the U.S. A disproportionate number of these unscoreable people are minorities as well, particularly black and Hispanic consumers, says
Ankush Tewari, senior director of market
planning at LexisNexis Risk Solutions.
LexisNexis is one three companies

involved in the program.

The program took two years to develop
and came from Fair Isaac. Research showed
people who have a history of paying utility
bills on time would also pay credit card bills
on time.
Under the program, Fair Isaac, working
with LexisNexis and credit agency Equifax,
will create a payment history profile from a
persons utility bills and public property
records. FICO would use that pooled data
determine an alternative credit score when
a person with a poor credit history, or none
at all, applies for a credit card.
The scores are being made available to the
12 largest credit card issuers, but Fair Isaac
did not say which banks will be participating in the program. A spokesman from
JPMorgan Chase, the nations largest credit

Stock split could cost Google over $500 million

By Michael Liedtke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO An unorthodox

stock split designed to ensure Google
CEO Larry Page and fellow co-founder
Sergey Brin retain control of the
Internets most profitable company
could cost Google more than half a billion dollars.
Page, 42, and Brin, 41, have maintained control over Google since they
started the company in a rented
Silicon Valley garage in 1998. Their
ideas and leadership have spawned
one of the worlds best known and
most powerful companies with a market value of $368 billion and a pay-

roll of about 54,000 employees.

Yet many investors have become frustrated with Pages unwavering belief
that Google should be spending billions on far-flung projects ranging from
driverless cars to diabetes-controlling
contact lenses that may take years to
pay off and have little to do with the
companys main business of search and
digital advertising. The big spending is
one reason Googles stock price is 3
percent below where it stood at the end
of 2013, while the Standard & Poors
500 index has climbed 12 percent.
To maintain the power to drive
Googles direction, Page and Brin initially accumulated virtually all of the
companys class B shares, which

have 10 votes for each A share. The

duo, though, worried that control would
erode as Google issued more A shares
to pay for acquisitions and reward other
workers. A year ago Thursday, Google
split its stock to create a new category
of C stock with no voting power that
would allow more Google shares to be
issued without undercutting Page and
Brin.
Class A shareholders were outraged,
skewering the maneuver as a textbook
example of shoddy corporate governance. Google argued there wouldnt be
much difference between the price of C
and A shares because Page and Brin
held majority control anyway with the
B shares.

card issuer by number of cards, declined to

comment. Representatives from American
Express and Citigroup did not respond to
requests for comment.
The program, which does not have a name
yet, is not designed to replace the traditional
FICO score and will only be available to
credit card issuers initially. Once a person
obtains a card using this alternative score,
they would be able to establish a credit payment history. They could then apply for auto
or home loans.
Most people have a cellphone, gas or
electric bill, and the size of those payments
each month can be sizeable, says Jason
Flemish, vice president of consumer risk and
credit products at Equifax. So lets give
them the opportunity to benefit from paying
those bills on time.

Obama rallies support
for job training over tax cuts
LOUISVILLE, Ky. President Barack Obama says the
U.S. cant afford tax cuts for the rich while cutting job training programs for young people.
Obama laid out his argument Thursday at a Louisville,
Kentucky-based tech company thats participating in a jobs
initiative he unveiled last month. The Tech Hire program
encourages employers, educational institutions and local
governments to work together to train people for technology jobs.
Obama says lawmakers should invest in what works so
more places can follow Kentuckys example.
The tax cut Obama refers to is a Republican effort to repeal
the estate tax, which the president says would help relatively few people at too great a financial burden to the country.
Republicans say eliminating the tax would help farmers and
small-business owners keep their businesses in the family.

Airbnb offers Cuba lodgings in major U.S. business expansion

Jury orders Chrysler to

pay $150M in Jeep fire death

By Michael Weissenstein

NEW YORK A jury in Georgia has awarded $150 million to the family of a 4-year-old boy killed when a Jeep
Grand Cherokee exploded into flames after being rear-ended
three years ago. The jury said Chrysler, the maker of Jeeps,
must pay nearly the full amount.
Jurors in Decatur County ruled Thursday that Chrysler
acted with reckless disregard for human life in selling the
family of Remington Remi Walden a 1999 Jeep with a gas
tank mounted behind the rear axle.
Walden, of Bainbridge, Georgia, was killed when the Jeep
driven by his aunt was hit from behind by a pickup truck in
March 2012. The fuel tank leaked, engulfing the Jeep in
flames and killing the boy.

HAVANA The popular online

home-rental service Airbnb is allowing American travelers to book lodging in Cuba starting Thursday in the
most significant U.S. business expansion on the island since the declaration of detente between the two countries late last year.
For a half-century, the U.S. trade
embargo has blocked such businesses

from entering the Cuban market. In

January, however, the Obama administration loosened a series of restrictions on U.S. business in an attempt to
encourage the growth of the islands
small private sector.
Airbnb searches for Cuba now turn
up more than 1,000 properties across
the island, with 40 percent in Havana
and the rest in tourist destinations
such as Cienfuegos a few hours away
on the southern coast. The company
has been sending teams of representatives to Cuba for three months to sign

up home owners, and plans to expand

steadily in coming months.
We believe that Cuba could become
one of Airbnbs biggest markets in
Latin America, said Kay Kuehne,
regional director for Airbnb, the website and mobile app that allows users
to book rooms in more than 1 million
private homes around the world. We
are actually plugging into an existing
culture of micro-enterprise in Cuba.
The hosts in Cuba have been doing for
decades what we just started doing
seven years ago.

Gators split
series with
Terra Nova

Sequoias Ike Seneca slides safely into home with the go-ahead run in the Cherokees 8-7, come-from-behind win over visiting Menlo School
Thursday afternoon. Trailing 6-0 and 7-4, Sequoia scored four runs in the bottom of the fifth and four in the bottom of the sixth.

Sequoia rallies late for win

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

All the signs pointed to the Menlo School

baseball team picking up its first Peninsula
Athletic League Bay Division win of the
season.
Not only did the Knights jump out to a 60 lead over host Sequoia after three innings,
the Cherokees were running on fumes. They
were playing their fifth game in four days,
coming off a 3-1 showing at the Selma
Kiwanis Classic in the Central Valley.

Sequoia did not have much left in the tank

and manager Corey Uhalde had steeled himself for a lackluster performance from his
team.
And for four innings, Sequoia did just that.
Menlo starting pitcher Austin DAmbra
allowed only one hit through the first four
innings.
But Sequoia scored four runs in the bottom
of the fifth and, after seeing the Knights
tack on an insurance run in the top of the
sixth for a 7-4 lead, the Cherokees scored
four more in the bottom of the sixth to take

an 8-7 lead.
Matt Smith, who came into pitch for the
Cherokees in the sixth, pitched a perfect
seventh to give Sequoia an improbable 8-7
victory.
It was Smiths first appearance on the
mound this season.
We were sitting there in the bottom of
the fifth, going, We put these guys through
the ringer (this week), Uhalde said. I
dont know how they found another gear.

Sacred Heart Prep hit the breaks on a runaway week just in the nick of time.
In the most pivotal two-game series in the
Peninsula Athletic League Bay Division this
season to date, Terra Nova looked to be running away with the battle between division
leaders. The Tigers won Tuesdays matchup
16-1 to take over first place in the Bay
Division. Then they jumped out to an early
six-run lead in Thursdays series finale.
But the Gators (6-2 in PAL Bay, 8-5 overall) responded by staging their biggest
comeback of the season by far. SHP rallied
for four runs in the middle innings before
scoring four runs in the seventh to claim a
key 8-7 victory at Terra Nova (4-2, 7-6).
With the win, the Gators move back into
first place in the PAL Bay Division, a half
game ahead of the Tigers.
That was probably the biggest (comeback) Ive ever seen, said John Bird, SHPs
winning pitcher. I was on the mound and we
were up when we were down 6-0 for most
of the game. So, it was definitely crazy. It
was one of the more ridiculous games that
Ive played in. But it was a lot of fun.
Bird earned the win by closing out the
game with two innings of relief work. The
second-year varsity senior has been the
Gators most frequent contributor out of the
bullpen this season, but entered into play
with a 0-1 career record. Thursdays win
marked the first victory of the right-handers varsity career.
SHP left-hander Will Johnston did take the
start, after all, following his ejection earlier
in the week. Johnston, first-base coach
Justin Granato and manager Anthony
Granato were thrown out of Tuesdays game,
which initially included a one-game suspension. After an appeal, Johnston and
Anthony Granato were reinstated for
Thursdays game. Justin Granatos suspension was upheld.

Serra takes Nor Cal consolation at Boras Classic

By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Serra manager Craig Gianinno called it a great high

school baseball game. Nothing less was expected from a
matchup of archrivals on a high-profile stage.
Ultimately, Wednesday's showdown with St. Francis in
the Northern California semifinals of the third annual
Boras Baseball Classic didn't go Serra's way, as the Padres
fell 5-4 under the lights at McAuliffe Stadium.
The Padres took a 3-2 lead into the sixth inning, but the
Lancers rallied for three runs in their penultimate at-bat to
win it.
It was a great high school high school baseball
game, Gianinno said. The momentum was shifting back
and forth. Unfortunately the momentum ended in St.
Francis hands.
The Padres ultimately salvaged their debut in the prestigious statewide tournament with a 7-2 victory over defending tourney champion Elk Grove in Thursdays consolation championship. With the win, Serra finishes in third
place out of 16 Northern California teams.
Calvin Riley fired a three-hit complete game against Elk
Grove, improving his record to 2-1. Serra totaled eight
hits, led by cleanup hitter James Outmans 3-for-4, twoRBI night. Scott Ota was 2 for 3 with an RBI. Riley added
a hit and two RBIs.
Wednesdays loss knocked Serra into the consolation
bracket in dramatic fashion. The Padres rallied early.
Following a Lancers run in the top of the second, Serra
responded with three runs in the bottom of the inning.
Outman and Nick Knecht drew walks and both advanced on
a passed ball. Tyler Villaroman then produced a game-tying
sacrifice fly to drive home Outman, moving Knecht to
third. After Chris Underwood walked, Chris Papapietro hit
a two-run double to give Serra a 3-1 lead.
But St. Francis rallied for a run in the third before taking
the lead with a three-run sixth.
The sixth-run rally started with a one-out single by
Emilio Nogales. Nogales advanced to second on a passed
ball then moved to third on a balk. Blake Diggle singled

home Nogales to tie it 3-3. Eric

Whitfields single moved courtesy runner Guiseppe Benedetti to second.
Andrew Martinez moved both runners up
with a sacrifice bunt. Then R.J. Teijiero
singled home two runs to give St.
Francis lead; the second run scored by
virtue of a defensive obstruction call on
the Padres third baseman.
He was in the base runners path,
Calvin Reilly
Gianinno said. He dove for the ball. It
was by coincidence he was there and the runner was there,
and he ended up getting in the way of the runner.
The run loomed large as Serra rallied for one run in the
bottom of the sixth. Knecht led off with a single and a
Villaroman double put runners at second and third, at which
point Kyle Sanchez entered as a pinch runner for Knecht.
Underwood followed with a sacrifice fly to score Sanchez,
but Villaroman representing the potential tying run
was thrown out attempting to advance to third.
Serra again rallied in the seventh, and ultimately loaded
the bases. But with Knecht who was 2 for 2 on the night
out of the game, the Padres missed a chance to see their
hottest hitter bat with the game on the line.
[Pinch running for Knecht] was a moment in the game
where we needed to put some speed on the bases,
Gianinno said.
Serra loaded the bases in its final at-bat. Riley led off
with a single and Felix Aberouette drew a one-out walk.
Angelo Bortolin later walked with two outs to load the
bases, but Sanchez struck out to end it.
We were disappointed, Gianinno said. We believe we
had several opportunities to cash in and capitalize on and
we didnt get it done; all the way down to the last play, we
had the bases loaded and got the winning run on second
base. So Im proud of them for that.
St. Francis captured the Northern California tourney title
with a 1-0 win in 10 innings Thursday over Clovis West.
The Lancers will take on the Southern California champion for the state tourney title May 2 at Cal State Fullerton.
The game is scheduled to be broadcast on ESPNU.

Braves acquire Cahill from D-backs

MLB brief

KISSIMMEE, Fla. The Atlanta Braves acquired pitcher Trevor Cahill from Arizona on Thursday night, hoping
to boost a staff thats been hurt by injuries.
The Diamondbacks sent Cahill and cash to the Braves for
minor league outfielder Josh Elander.
The 27-year-old Cahill was 3-12 with a 5.61 ERA for
Arizona last season. The right-hander was an All-Star with
Oakland in 2010.
Cahill is 64-69 with a 4.07 ERA in six seasons.
Only opening day starter Julio Teheran, newcomer Shelby
Miller and Alex Wood are guaranteed spots in the Braves
rotation. Mike Minor, who went 6-12 with a 4.77 ERA in 25
starts last season, is out indefinitely with a sore shoulder.

Braves assistant general manager John Coppolella said

the Braves had their eyes on Cahill all spring.
We thought he was a young pitcher with good stuff,
Coppolella said. We saw him four different times this
spring and liked what we saw.
Cahill has suffered from shoulder stiffness but
Coppolella said it was just minor wear and tear.
There are no red flags, Coppolella said. Hes going to
give us a good shot to get us where we want to be.
The 24-year-old Elander is a .275 hitter in three seasons
in the minors. He batted .219 with two homers last year at
Class A Lynchburg.

Barnes shoots Warriors to 107-106 win over Suns

By Antonio Gonzlaez
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND Harrison Barnes hit a running shot in the lane with less than a second
remaining, lifting the Golden State
Warriors to a wild 107-106 win over the
Phoenix Suns on Thursday night.
Barnes big shot came after Eric Bledsoe
broke free for a reverse layup to put Phoenix
ahead with 4. 5 seconds to play. And
Bledsoes layup followed Stephen Currys
go-ahead 3-pointer that seemingly put the
Warriors up for good.
Instead, it took all 48 minutes for the
NBA-leading Warriors (62-13) to extend
their latest winning streak to 11 games.
They fell behind by four in the final minutes
and traded scores with the fading Suns (3838) the rest of the way.
With little left to play for other than pride,
the Warriors continued their franchise-record
roll toward the playoffs though it was
anything but smooth. Curry carried them
back in the final minutes before Barnes big
shot finished Phoenix off.

Curry collected 28
points, eight rebounds
and five assists, Klay
Thompson scored 16 and
Barnes had just four
none bigger than his
last.
Barnes caught the ball
off an inbounds pass and
dribbled toward the basHarrison
ket.
With
Archie
Barnes
Goodwin guarding him
and Bledsoe trying to strip the ball, Barnes
rose up and finished in the lane.
Bledsoe had 18 points and 11 assists,
Markieff Morris had 17 points and 12
rebounds, and Brandan Wright added 17
points and 12 rebounds for the Suns, who
have lost five in a row. And while Phoenix
is still mathematically in the race for the
Western Conferences final playoff spot, its
postseason hopes are all but finished.
The Warriors already have secured the top
playoff seed in the West and are closing in
on clinching the NBAs best record over
East-leading Atlanta. Even with a huge lead

Puig leaves game after collision

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ANAHEIM Los Angeles Dodgers right

fielder Yasiel Puig was removed from a
spring training game Thursday night
against the Angels as a precaution following a violent collision with second baseman Howie Kendrick.
The play occurred in the fifth inning
while Puig and his new teammate were chasing a shallow fly by Mike Trout that fell for
a leadoff triple.
Kendrick, who spent his first nine big
league seasons playing second base for the
Angels before they traded him to the
Dodgers in December, peeled off when he

heard Puig call for the ball at the last instant

but could not avoid hitting him.
Puig went down and was tended to by a
trainer before walking off the field under his
own power.
Im glad everybodys OK. Thats the
main thing, Dodgers manager Don
Mattingly said. It looked like Howie got
him in the neck or the throat with his shoulder. Howie didnt hear anything until the
last second. The infielders going to keep
going until he hears something, and thats
basically what Howie did. Thats when it
gets dangerous.
Puig was replaced in right field by Chris
Heisey.

in the standings, Kerr said he has no plans

to rest his players.
Instead, he will monitor minutes while
trying to keep his team sharp. Motivation,
he said, has not been a problem.
They like winning. Its pretty simple,
Kerr said before the game.
The Warriors seemed comfortable and in
control from start to finish. But they struggled to put Phoenix away, often looking
disinterested and out of rhythm.
The Suns continued to apply pressure and
made things a little uncomfortable for Kerr,
who was called for a technical foul early in
the fourth quarter after waving his arms and
mouthing at an official.
T.J. Warrens reverse layup started a threepoint play that put Phoenix up 89-88 with
5:33 remaining. Curry answered with a 3pointer, and Tucker followed with another
from beyond the arc as the teams traded baskets.
Bledsoes 3 extended Phoenixs lead to
98-94 with 2:32 left. And after the Suns
missed a chance to create more separation,
Curry connected on a pull-up 3-pointer.

The teams traded scores again before

Warren banked in a turnaround fadeaway to
give the Suns a 102-99 lead. Two possessions later, Curry found Thompson in transition for a tying 3-pointer from the top of
the arc with 34.7 seconds remaining.
But the drama had just begun. Tucker converted a reverse layup for another go-ahead
score for Phoenix before a wild sequence
ensued:
Curry missed a shot, Boguts tip-back
rimmed out, Barnes missed a runner and
Bogut came up with a rebound and tossed it
out to Thompson, who threw the extra pass
to a wide-open Curry in the corner. Curry
connected to put the Warriors up with 6.8
seconds left, sending the announced sellout
crowd of 19,596 into a frenzy and breaking
out in a chant of M-V-P!
Just a few seconds later, Bledsoe rolled off
a high screen to the basket to beat
Thompson for a reverse layup with 4.5 seconds to play. But Barnes came through when
the Warriors needed him most to end
Phoenixs rally.

Ko ties Sorenstams record; Pressel leads first major

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

RANCHO MIRAGE Lydia Ko was in

trouble Thursday in the ANA Inspiration.
Trying to tie Annika Sorenstams LPGA Tour
record for consecutive rounds under par, the
17-year-old New Zealander was even par with
three holes left and stuck behind five large
trees to the left of the seventh fairway.
It was a pretty nasty place to be, Ko
said.
To escape, she needed to a hit a sweeping,
low hook.
She did, with the ball scampering onto the
green and stopping pin-high 25 feet to the
right.
I said, Im going to try to hit the biggest
hook, Ko said. It would have probably
looked really bad, that swing on camera, but
it ended up being OK. ... I had to hit it low
enough and had to hit a slinging hook, so I
didnt end up in the bunker.
She two-putted for par, then hit a 6-iron to
18 inches on the 158-yard eighth to set up
the birdie she needed to get under par. She

GATORS
Continued from page 11
The appeal dramatics served as a fitting
preface for a wild series finale, which saw
the Terra Nova infield turn a spectacular
triple play in the fourth before the Gators
rallied to take the lead in in the seventh
without even tabbing a hit in the inning.
Facing the Terra Nova bullpen, the Gators
comeback rally was spurred by a spree of
consecutive hit batsmen, two balks and a
huge Terra Nova throwing error.
Johnston was plunked to lead off the
inning. He stole second then reached third
base on a balk. Then John Van Sweden was
hit by a pitch to put runners at the corners.
SHP executed a wheel steal, with Van Sweden
swiping second before Johnston streaked
home on the throw to second.
After Cole March was hit by a pitch, the
Gators attempted a double steal. While Terra
Nova looked to have Van Sweden dead to
rights at third base, catcher Joey Pledgers
throw sailed into left field, allowing Van

closed with a par on the

par-5 ninth for a 1-under
71 to match Sorenstams
record of 29 straight
rounds under par.
Ko was tied for 10th,
four strokes behind firstround leader Morgan
Pressel in the first major
championship of the seaLydia Ko
son. Pressel won the
2007 tournament to become the youngest
major champion at 18 years, 10 months, 9
days.
I kept the ball in play, Pressel said. I
was never really in terrible position.
Ai Miyazato was second at 68, and Hall of
Famer Juli Inkster, So Yeon Ryu, Alison
Walshe and Gwladys Nocera shot 69. The 54year-old Inkster won in 1984 and 1989.
I actually have been hitting the ball fairly well the last couple of weeks and Ive been
out with a bulky putter, Inkster said.
Today, I made a few putts and I made great
par on 16.

The top six played in

the afternoon, long after
strong wind tested the
morning starters on their
opening nines at treelined Mission Hills.
Lexi Thompson had a
72 playing alongside Ko
in the morning. The
Morgan Pressel defending champion was
impressed with her
young friends recovery shot on No. 7.
It was an incredible shot, Thompson
said. I didnt know she had that kind of shot
because she was on an upslope. I didnt
know she could keep it under the trees.
The top-ranked Ko started the streak in the
first round of her victory last year in the season-ending event. Her worldwide streak is
32, counting her three rounds in her victory
in the Ladies European Tours New Zealand
Womens Open.
Sorenstam set the LPGA Tour mark in
2004.
Ive talked to her a couple of times, Ko

said about Sorenstam. I would love to play

with her one day. That would be really cool.
With the wind gusting to 20 mph, Ko
opened with a 14-foot birdie putt on No. 10
and made an 8-footer on 12. She bogeyed the
13th, hitting into the front right bunker and
leaving a 25-foot putt.
After Thompson hit into the front water
on the 133-yard 14th with the wind gusting
to 25-30 mph, Ko hit pin-high to the right
and made the 15-footer.
I had to play like 12 yards (for the wind),
so I went up a club and a half, Ko said.
Ko bogeyed three of the next four holes to
make the turn at 1 over.
Playing into a right-to-left crosswind on
the par-4 15th, she drove into the front of
the left fairway bunker. A half-foot from the
lip, she chipped 30 yards to the fairway and
hit her 6-iron third to 35 feet.
On the par-4 16th, she drove left into
rough on the front edge of a bunker. Her fairway wood with the ball below her feet was
short of the green in the left rough and she
hit her third to 20 feet.

Sweden to score the tying run. Cleanup hitter Andrew Daschbach reached on an infield
error, allowing March to advance to third.
Then senior Mitch Martella produced a sacrifice fly to drive home March, giving the
Gators a 7-6 lead.
Martella said even when Terra Nova
jumped out to an early lead for the second
straight game, he and his Gators teammates
still felt like they were in the game.
We definitely thought we had a chance,
Martella said. And we saw them getting
overconfident. That was a good sign for us
when we started swinging the bats well.
Terra Nova manager Joey Gentile echoed
Martellas assessment.
When it was 6-0, I think we kind of laid
down a little bit, Gentile said. I think we
thought it was going to be like Tuesday. We
had that feeling and we kind of got down a
little bit and they stole the momentum away
from us.
SHP added a key insurance run in the top
of the seventh when Daschbach was awarded
home plate on Terra Novas third balk of the
game.
In the bottom of the seventh, Terra Nova
mounted a rally of its own. Anthony Gordon

sparked the rally with a one-out single that

went for three bags when the SHPs outfield
booted it. Pledger then walked and Austin
Youngdale took a hit by pitch to the helmet.
Ray Falk followed by scorching a onehopper to Martella at third base, allowing
Gordon to score while SHP got the out at
third. Then Bird closed it out by inducing a
chopper to third for the games final out.
I'm usually a pitch-to-contact pitcher,
Bird said. So, I knew I just had to put it in
the zone and let my defense work. It went to
Mitch and he made two huge plays for us.
I was lucky to be able to pull out the W
there.
SHPs victory took the sheen off Terra
Novas fourth-inning triple play that, at the
time, seemed to keep the Tigers in the drivers seat. Terra Nova entered the inning
leading 6-0, but the Gators rallied.
With two runs in and the bases loaded,
Johnston hit a tailor-made double-play ball
to short. As Joe Armstrong scored from
third base on the play, Terra Nova shortstop
Kobe Christo shuffled the ball to second
baseman Eric Viana, who hurried the ball to
first with a swift pivot. As the first baseman
Falk caught the ball, SHPs Jack Molumphy

attempted to score all the way from second.

Falk made a 360-degree spin and gunned
down Molumphy with a sweet sweep tag
from Pledger to cap the triple play.
But with the Gators trailing 6-3, they
immediately continued to mount offense the
next inning, quickly striking for a run on
back-to-back doubles by Van Sweden and
March to lead off the fifth.
I talk about momentum all the time,
Gentile said. We had them up 6-0 against
their best [pitcher]. A couple plays here and
there and it just started turning on us. They
stole the momentum back and they carried
it. The defense let us down and hit batsmen, just stuff we normally dont do it did
cost us the game.
Johnston SHPs ace finished with a nodecision survived two rough frames at the
start to post zeroes in the third and fourth as
the Gators got back into the game.
Thats the reason I left him in there,
Anthony Granato said. He gave us an
opportunity to stay in here and battle and
get some good at-bats. He did, and it helped
us out tremendously.

Kentucky looking to
do what UNLV couldnt
By Jim OConnell
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

INDIANAPOLIS Twenty-four
years ago, UNLV arrived in
Indianapolis for a coronation disguised as a Final Four.
The Runnin Rebels were a college
basketball juggernaut. They hadnt
lost all season. In fact, they hadnt
lost for 45 straight games, a streak
that started with
a run in the previous season to
a national championship.
UNLV, led by
Jerry Tarkanian,
the towel-chewing defensive
genius, arrived
Jerry Tarkanian in Indianapolis
needing
two
wins to become the first undefeated
national champion since Indiana in
1976.
This week, Kentucky arrived in
Indianapolis for a coronation disguised as a Final Four.
The Wildcats are a college basketball juggernaut. They havent lost all
season.
Kentucky, led by John Calipari, a
coach who has turned recruiting into
an art form,
arrived
in
I n di a n a p o l i s
needing
two
wins to become
the first undefeated national
champion since
Indiana in 1976.
The Wildcats
John Calipari face Wisconsin
on Saturday in
the national semifinals. That was the
round in which UNLVs undefeated
dreams were dashed by Duke, a team
the Runnin Rebels had beaten by 30
points in the championship game a
year earlier. Duke, which plays
Michigan State on Saturday, could
get another chance to ruin a perfect
run at the title, but that is looking
way down a three-day road.
Ill never have a group of players
like this again, Tarkanian, who died
on Feb. 11, said the night of the 7977 loss to Duke, a result that stunned
the sports world. You only get a
team like this once in your career.
This was a very special group of
kids.
Im just sick, he said. It meant
so much to these kids. Im just hurting inside.
When the game ended, Duke coach
Mike Krzyzewski had his own problem. He had to get his team to settle
down after the upset because the Blue
Devils still had a game Monday
night for the national championship.

I thought all week we had a chance

but I wasnt going to be Joe Namath
and say anything like that,
Krzyzewski said 24 years ago. I
thought if we could fight for 40 minutes we could win, not knowing if the
kids could handle it. UNLV plays
with such ease and we play with so
much emotion.
UNLV won its games by an average
of 26.7 points per game. Only two
games were decided by less than 12
points, a 7-point win over Arkansas
in a 1-vs.-2 matchup and an 8-point
victory over Georgetown in the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
I remember in practice, Coach K
had us practicing five against seven,
to get used to their speed and their
quickness, Grant Hill, a freshman
starter on that Duke team, said
Thursday in Indianapolis where he
will serve as a game analyst for CBS.
We had a game plan, wed been in a
number of close games, we won
some, some we didnt, but we had
that experience, and they had not
been in many close games, so our
thing was lets hit them early, let
them know were here, were going
to play, and lets just manage the
game and keep it close, and if its
close, the pressure is going to be all
on them. That was our comfort zone,
how we played all year.
UNLVs starting lineup included
first-round draft picks Larry
Johnson, Stacey Augmon and Greg
Anthony. It also had Anderson Hunt
and George Ackles. All were upperclassmen.
Kentuckys roster is so deep scuba
gear is recommended. Nine outstanding underclassmen who have all
committed to ignoring minutes for
wins and its anybodys guess how
many of them will be first-round
NBA draft picks. Eight of the nine
players in the rotation are averaging
between 5.6 and 11.0 points per
game. Eight players have been
Kentuckys leading scorer in a game
this season. The Wildcats did have
three game decided by six or fewer
points, but their average margin of
victory was almost 21 points per
game.
In the Midwest Regional semifinal, Kentucky destroyed West
Virginia 78-39. Dominating was an
understatement.
They were what I thought they
were, West Virginia coach Bob
Huggins said. Thats the best defensive team I think that Ive ever
coached against. And when theyre
making shots, theres nobody going
to beat them.
Similar words were spoken 24
years earlier by Arkansas coach
Nolan Richardson after the 1-2
matchup when he was asked what it
would take to beat the Runnin
Rebels.

Mayweather-Pacquiao PPV upwards of $99.95

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LAS VEGAS Dont expect

much change back from a $100 bill
to watch the Floyd Mayweather Jr.Manny Pacquiao fight at home.
The suggested retail price for the
May 2 pay-per-view will be $89.95,
the two cable networks broadcasting the fight said Thursday. Many,
though, will end up paying $99.95
because of a surcharge for high definition tacked on by many cable and
satellite providers.
Like almost everything else
about the fight, the pay-per-view
price is a record for boxing. The previous
highest
was
the
$64.95/$74.95 charged for the
2013 fight between Mayweather
and Canelo Alvarez.
The welterweight title unification
fight will be televised by HBO and

Sh o wt i me,
using a combination
of
a n n o un c e r s .
HBOs
Jim
Lampley will be
the
lead
announcer, with
Showtimes Al
Bernstein servFloyd
Mayweather ing as analyst.
Promoters are
optimistic the fight will sell more
than the 2.48 million buys generated by Mayweathers 2007 fight
with Oscar De La Hoya, and it will
almost surely surpass the $152 million in pay-per-view revenue record
set by the Mayweather-Alvarez
fight.
The retail price for the fight had
not been announced previously as
the networks negotiated with the

p a y - p e r- v i e w
distributors over
the
revenue
s p l i t .
Tradi t i o n al l y,
promoters of the
fight get 50 percent to 55 percent of the price
for the pay-perManny
view, though
Pacquiao
that figure will
be larger for this fight.
Depending on how the pay-perview does, Mayweather could earn
some $180 million and Pacquiao
$120 million.
Tickets for the fight at the MGM
Grand have yet to go on sale but will
carry a record price of $1,500 to
$7,500. Promoters say there will be
some sales to the public, but they
are expected to be very limited.

Prosecution rests in trial of ex-NFL player Aaron Hernandez

By Michelle R. Smith
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FALL RIVER, Mass. The prosecution

rested Thursday in the murder trial of former
New England Patriots star tight end Aaron
Hernandez after spending more than two
months presenting a case that he killed the
boyfriend of his fiancees sister.
Hernandez has pleaded not guilty to murder
in the June 17, 2013, killing of Odin Lloyd,
who was found shot in an industrial park less
than a mile from Hernandezs home. At the
time, Hernandez had a $40 million contract
with the Patriots.
Prosecutors called 131 witnesses since
testimony began Jan. 29, including team
owner Robert Kraft, who testified this week

SEQUOIA

We talk about the scoreboard and when
things arent going your way, some teams
pack it in. They wanted this win so bad.
The loss was the sixth in a row for Menlo
and the Knights fifth consecutive loss in
PAL Bay Division play.
A loss is a loss, said Menlo manager
Ryan Cavan. Every loss is tough.
This one, however, had to be particularly
hard to swallow. It was only the third time
this season the Knights scored six runs or
more. During their previous five losses,
they were averaging 2.5 runs per game.
So Menlo (0-5 PAL Bay, 3-8 overall) had
to be thrilled to take a quick 3-0 lead with a
trio of runs in the first inning. RJ Babiera

ensuing inbounds pass, and after Brown
made a free throw with 3.1 seconds to go,
the Hurricanes appeared to do it again. But
the officials went to the monitor and
reversed the call, ruling Stanford touched
the ball last. That gave Miami one last
chance with the ball under the basket and
1.8 seconds left.
With the scored tied 55-all and just over a

that two days after the

killing,
Hernandez
looked him in the eye and
told him he was innocent.
They also submitted hundreds of pieces of evidence, including surveillance videos from inside
Hernandezs home that
showed him holding a
Aaron
black
object
that
Hernandez
appeared to be a gun less
than 10 minutes after Lloyds killing. A
joint found near Lloyds body had DNA from
both men on it.
Hernandezs legal team has gone after that
evidence, calling into question the testimony of an employee of weapons manufacturer
Glock who had identified the black object as

a gun and arguing instead that it was a piece

of electronics such as an iPad or a TV remote.
They also have gone after the police investigation, painting it as bumbling and inept
and saying Hernandez was targeted as a suspect because he is a celebrity.
The prosecutions case ended Thursday
with its final witness, Dr. William Zane of
the state medical examiners office. His testimony was graphic at times as he detailed
the gunshot wounds that killed Lloyd, using
a mannequin to demonstrate where he was
shot and at what angle the bullets entered his
body. Lloyd was shot six times, and Zane
said three of the shots were fatal.
Lloyd died as a result of injuries to his
heart, lungs, liver and a kidney, Zane said,
and he would have been dead within minutes.
Lloyds mother, Ursula Ward, left the court

before he testified. But other family members stayed, dropping their heads, rocking
and some shedding tears as a prosecutor
showed photos of Lloyds bullet-riddled
body at the medical examiners office.
The jurors appeared to pay close attention,
with one frowning and furrowing her brow as
Lloyds body was displayed on a monitor.
After Zanes testimony, prosecutor
William McCauley announced that the prosecution had rested.
Superior Court Judge Susan Garsh then
sent the jurors home, telling them before
they left that she expected they would
receive the case next week. She reminded
them to be extra vigilant not to discuss
the case over the holiday weekend, when
they may be seeing more family members
than usual.

singled to lead off the game and Jared Lucian

walked. David Farnham chased Babiera
home with a double, Carson Gampell drove
in the second run on a fielders choice and
Antonio Lopez, who had walked, ended up
scoring on a wild pitch.
Two innings later, Menlo doubled its lead.
Farnham singled and Antonio Lopez followed with a ground-rule double over the
fence in left-center field. Gampell followed
with a walk to load the bases. Following a
strikeout, Macklan Badger walked to plate
Farnham, James Adler hit into a fielders
choice to score Antonio Lopez and Gampell
ended up scoring on an error to put the
Knights up 6-0.
That seemed like enough for DAmbra,
who cruised through the first four innings
without allowing a Sequoia baserunner past
second base.
Then the wheels started to come off for the
Knights, beginning in the bottom of the

fifth. Smith and Seneca started the inning

innocently enough with back-to-back singles. Diego Arellano followed with an RBI
single of his own to get Sequoia (3-2, 11-5
overall) on the scoreboard. Matt Lopez
drove in the Cherokees second run on a
groundout to make the score 6-2. Following
a popout, Mike Michelini was hit by a pitch
to put runners on first and second and bring
up clean-up hitter Tommy Lopiparo. On a 31 offering, he stroked an opposite-field line
drive to the fence in right field for a two-run
triple. He would later be gunned down at the
plate trying to steal home, but the
Cherokees had new life.
They continued their assault an inning
later, after Antonio Lopez gave Menlo a 7-4
lead with an RBI single in the top of the
sixth.
In the bottom of the frame, Zack Pace led
off with a single and courtesy runner Blake
Carbonneau raced around the bases to score

on Kasi Pohahaus double. Smith was then

hit by a pitch and Seneca reached on a fielders choice to load the bases.
Pohahau would score when Arellanos routine grounder to second went under the second basemans glove. Matt Lopez followed
with a safety-squeeze bunt to drive in Smith
with the tying run.
Max Michelini followed and hit a ball
deep to right field. It was deep enough that
Seneca could easily tag up and score the goahead run and it was a moot point after the
right fielder could not handle to fly ball,
allowing Seneca to score what turned out to
be the winning run without a throw.
Im proud of these guys battling back,
Uhalde said. I wouldnt say I expected us to
come back and win the game.
This game is more than one win in the
standings. Thats a win that can fuel you for
a season.

minute left in regulation, the game became a

contest of the teams top scorers driving to
the hoop. Twice Randle hit shots to put
Stanford in the lead only for McClellan to
draw a foul on the other end and hit both free
throws to tie it.
After McClellan made it 59-59 with 16.8
seconds to go, Stanford worked the ball
around for an open 3-point attempt by
Marcus Allen, who had made some big second-half shots. But he missed it at the
buzzer to send the game to overtime.
Stanford center Stefan Nastic had fouled
out late in regulation, and McClellan finally started to find room in the paint in OT. He

drove the lane for a dunk to give Miami its

first lead since nearly seven minutes
remained in the first half, then dished to
Reed for a layup and the three-point lead.
McClellan shot just 5 of 16 from the floor
with Brown playing tough defense on him,
but he was 6 of 7 from the foul line.
With the score tied at 18 and less than six
minutes left before halftime, Randle had
eight points, an assist and a steal as
Stanford closed the half on a 14-3 run. The
Cardinal quickly extended the lead to 13
early in the second half.
They were up 10 with under 13 minutes
left, but the Hurricanes wouldnt go away.

Omar Sherman hit both ends of a one-andone with 3:27 remaining to tie the score at
53-53.

Fast-moving fight scenes,

outrageous auto antics and a
sprinkling of ridiculous oneliners make Furious 7 a
campy,
crowd-pleasing
escape.

Never mind that the film

repeatedly presents the impossible a muscle car attacks

With nonstop action from start

exhausting to go along for

the high-speed ride.

Reality intrudes at the end:
The film is dedicated to Paul
Walker, who died in a car
crash in 2013, and concludes
with a montage of images of
the actor from his five previous Fast and Furious
appearances. Walkers broth-

ers acted as stand-ins and special effects were used to maintain his presence throughout
his final film, which was still
in production when he died.
There are a couple of creepy

three more films that would create an interconnected saga out of the disparate story
lines.
The fourth, simply titled Fast & Furious,
was the turning point, reuniting the originals, including Diesel and Walker, with key
members of Tokyo Drift. Lin, Morgan,
Moritz and Diesel (along with his millions of
social media fans) followed that with perhaps
the best film in the series, Fast Five, which
added Dwayne Johnson to the cast and earned
$630 million worldwide. Fast & Furious 6
did even better, grossing a staggering $789
million.
These films pushed the boundaries of traditional action movie motifs and created a
world unto itself, said Paul Dergarabedian,
the Senior Analyst for box office firm
Rentrak. Their international locales and
diverse cast made them a truly global phenomenon.
Director James Wan, who took the helm for
the seventh film, believes the Furious
appeal has a lot to do with the characters and
casting.
People like this franchise because of the
incredible stunts and crazy action set pieces.

But I think, ultimately, it has longevity

because of the characters. People love the
characters; people love the actors playing the
characters, said Wan.
Not only does the series boast one of the
most racially diverse casts in blockbuster
history, the team is always looking at the
evolution of the story with an eye to the
international, from the savvy casting of talents like Indonesian actor Joe Taslim (Fast
& Furious 6) and Thai martial artist Tony Jaa
(Furious 7), to those travelogue locations.
It does help, said Universals president of
international distribution, Duncan Clark,
who saw an uptick in earnings from Brazil
after it was featured in Fast Five. He hopes
the same will be true for Abu Dhabi, a key setting in the latest movie. Diesel, in a YouTube
video, said outright that they took the production to the United Arab Emirates for its
box office potential.
Indeed, most international markets have
grown steadily over the past few films, but
none can match the power of China, which
has become a tremendous elevation for all
films now, said Clark. China contributed
$53.6 million of the sixth films total (up

from Fast Fives $38 million) and all eyes

are on Furious 7s debut there on April 12.
Chinas worth was not lost on the promotional side either. While Fast & Furious 6
had an extensive international press tour,
Furious 7 had only two locations on the
schedule: Los Angeles and Beijing, its first
press event there.
For Universal, the series is vitally important to its overall business and a worthy competitor to the superhero fare of other studios.
At this point we believe we can compete
with anybody. We saw a huge opportunity to
be the first movie of the early summer and
then have three weeks all to ourselves, said
Moritz.
As for whats next, Universal chair Donna
Langley has said that there are at least three
more films in the series. Right now, though,
theyre just glad Furious 7 is finally set to
open.
The film was supposed to debut in July of
2014, but Paul Walkers death in November
2013 threw everything for a loop as the team
regrouped to figure out first, whether or not to
complete it in his absence, and then how to
do it tastefully.

tial to American muscle cars, the $3.5 million Lykan Hypersport from Dubai-based W
Motors is incredible to see. Only seven
such vehicles exist. (No Lykan Hypersports
were harmed during the making of the film.)
The story is just a framework for car
chases and fight scenes. Dom (Vin Diesel)
and his crew are acclimating to life on the
right side of the law when theyre attacked
by Shaw (Statham), bent on avenging the
death of his brother, who was killed in
Fast & Furious 6. Shaw is elusive, and
the crew needs help. Theyre approached
by secret operative Mr. Nobody (a smiling and smarmy Kurt Russell), who promises to aid in taking out Shaw if Doms
crew can secure a breakthrough tracking
device for the U. S. government.
Meanwhile, a group of mercenaries, led by
an underused Djimon Honsou, is also willing to kill for the tracking device, which
can locate anyone on the globe by hack-

ing into myriad digital networks.

Directed by James Wan (Saw,
Insidious), Furious 7 scores with
unprecedented car stunts. A cargo plane
drops various parachute-equipped cars onto
a curving road in the Caucasus Mountains.
Amazingly, all the cars land upright where
they are supposed to. Hilariously, Dom and
the others are shown steering the vehicles
as they fly through the air.
Another awesome sequence shows a
sports car crashing through glass windows
as it jumps from skyscraper to skyscraper in
Abu Dhabi.
When the characters arent in their cars,
theyre fist-fighting, and Wans shooting
style makes those scenes appear illuminated by strobe light.
Even Letty (Michelle Rodriguez), the lone
female driver on the crew, throws blows
in a gown and heels battling an allwoman security team led by MMA fighter

Ronda Rousey. Though Letty is depicted as

an equal among the boys, there is a sexist
undertone to the film. Attractive women are
set dressing and Roman and Tej (Chris
Ludacris Bridges) play rock, paper, scissors for dibs on a woman.
While that may be comic for some, most
of the funny comes from security agent
Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson), with lines like,
Daddys got to go to work, after which he
busts his arm out of a plaster cast, Hulkstyle, just by flexing.
It all adds up to an over-the-top escapist
romp, which is exactly what Fast &
Furious fans expect.
Furious 7, a Universal Pictures release,
is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture
Association of America for prolonged frenetic sequences of violence, action and
mayhem, suggestive content and brief
strong language. Running time: 140 minutes. Three stars out of four.

Furious 7 shows off sharp

new Imax laser technology
By Ryan Nakashima
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES Deeper blacks,

brighter whites, even bigger screens and
better sound. When the high-speed action
sequel Furious 7 debuts this weekend,
audiences at Hollywoods famous TCL
Chinese Theatre will see every tire skid
and fistfight in Imaxs brand-new laser format.
Lasers are supposed to be able to heighten contrast. In laser-projected trailer
footage of Furious 7 shown exclusively
to the Associated Press, details were
noticeably crisper than images shown in a
standard-sized auditorium with a regular
digital projector. Deep blacks, one of the
touted benefits of laser projection, stood
out boldly, particularly in actress Michelle
Rodriguezs eyes and hair, a suit worn by
actor Jason Statham, Vin Diesels tank
top, black car paint and shadows in the
grooves of tire treads.
Furious 7 will mark the first time a
film is being premiered in laser. Imaxs
first laser projector just started operating
in Torontos Scotiabank Theatre in
December. The Chinese Theatre, one of the
largest Imax theaters in the world, is one
of more than a dozen locations that Imax
expects to outfit with laser projection this
year. Others include the AMC Loews
Lincoln Square 13 in Manhattan and
Empire Cinemas Leicester Square in
London. Tickets for laser-illuminated
shows will be the same price as those

shown in Imaxs standard format.

Laser projection is more than contrast,
though. The technology will allow more
movies to be screened in giant theaters,
says Imax Corp. CEO Rich Gelfond. Until
now, digital projectors havent been able
to use all the real estate of the largest
screens because industry-standard xenon
bulbs werent bright enough. And the high
cost of Imax film prints, which show more
brightly than digital files, meant that only
about eight big-budget blockbusters a year
could be shown on giant screens.
Lasers change all that. Screens should be
able to extend to 140 feet wide and utilize
more of the screen at the top and bottom,
Gelfond says. The Chinese Theatre can
now show Imax movies at a width of 96
feet, compared to 86 feet in the past, says
theater president Alwyn Hight Kushner.
Larger screens means being able to fill Imax plans to use lasers only on its biggest screens 80-feet-wide and above and at
bigger theaters with more seats and build institutions such as the Smithsonian, which has ordered three for all its Imax theaters. Imax has
even larger auditoriums from scratch, says contracts with over 71 theaters to install its laser system so far.
Gelfond. He hopes the better visual experience and 12-channel audio that Imax is
rolling out with the laser upgrade will
drive more moviegoers to want to see
films in Imax, which typically cost a few
dollars more than standard movie tickets.
The laser system is expected to boost
gross profits by around $1 million this
year, Gelfond told investors in October.
I think over time, this will be the next
big thing, Gelfond said in an interview
Come and join us for
Tuesday with The AP. Its not going to

DIY cheese? Homemade paneer is an easy project

By Sara Moulton
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Saag paneer is a delicious and toothsome

South Asian dish consisting of cubes of
fresh cheese (thats the paneer) combined
with greens (thats the saag) in a creamy
sauce. The first time I made paneer was in the
test kitchen at Gourmet magazine. I just
about did a happy dance around the room. I
couldnt believe there was a way to make
fresh cheese in your own kitchen without
any special equipment.
And it tasted very fresh, mostly because
there were no additives, but also because it
had spent no time in the refrigerator absorbing random flavors from its neighbors.
Trust me when I tell you that mastering the
making of paneer at home (a very simple
process) is well worth your time (and it
wont take much of it).
There are two basic ways to turn dairy such
as milk or cream into cheese add either
rennet or an acid. For today, lets stick with
the acid method, since rennet is harder to
come by, and chances are good that you

already have an appropriate acid in the

kitchen. The only equipment youll need is a
pot, a thermometer, some cheesecloth and a
strainer.
You start by heating your choice of dairy
(milk, cream, half-and-half, or a mixture of
the three) in a heavy saucepan over medium
heat, stirring often to prevent the dairy from
scorching. Be sure to avoid UHT (ultra-high
temperature treated) milks, as they dont
work well for making cheese.
When the milk reaches 190 F, the acid is
added and everything is briefly stirred. There
are two choices of acid: fresh lemon juice,
which gives the cheese a slightly citrusy
flavor, or distilled white vinegar, which
produces a neutral tart taste. The milk then
is allowed to stand for 15 minutes, during
which it starts to separate into curds and
whey almost immediately.
After 15 minutes, the milk is poured
through a cheesecloth-lined strainer set in
the sink. I tried dumping all of it at once
into the strainer, but the water backed up and

See PANEER, Page 22

MUSEUM GOTTA SEE UM

By Susan Cohn
DAILY JOURNAL SENIOR CORRESPONDENT

JOSEFF OF HOLLYWOOD: JEWELER TO THE STARS, AT THE SAN

FRANCISCO AIRPORT MUSEUM. In
the late 1920s, Eugene Joseff (1905-48)
decided to leave the Midwest and his career
in advertising in search of better economic opportunities. He moved to Los Angeles
where the motion-picture industry thrived.
The charismatic Joseff soon befriended the
famous costume designer Walter Plunkett
(1902-82) who first inspired Joseff to create jewelry for Hollywood films. Joseff,
who at a young age apprenticed at a
foundry, began experimenting with making jewelry in the garage of his Sunset
Boulevard home. He developed a matte
metal finish for his jewelry, which minimized the glare from the strong studio
lights. He also amassed a reference library
to aid him in the creation of pieces for historic films.
Before long, the talented Joseff became
the premier costume jeweler in
Hollywood, designing, manufacturing and
renting jewelry to movie studios under the
brand name Joseff of Hollywood. Joseff
created exquisite pieces for famous actresses such as Marlene Dietrich in Shanghai
Express, Greta Garbo in Camille and
Vivien Leigh in Gone with the Wind. With
his business quickly growing, Joseff needed someone to manage the day-to-day
affairs. Joan Castle (1912-2010) was
hired, and before long the two fell in love.
Married in 1942, their union tragically
ended six years later when Joseff died in an
untimely accident. Joan then singlehandedly took over the business during a time
when few women ran companies. During
the 1950s, she expanded jewelry rentals to
television productions. Joans daughterin-law, granddaughter and grandson maintain thousands of original Joseff of

Hollywood jewelry creations, which have

appeared in countless Hollywood movies.
Joseff of Hollywood: Jeweler to the
Stars at the San Francisco Airport Museum
features captivating pieces worn by some
of the worlds most glamorous silverscreen icons from snake jewelry worn
by Rita Hayworth and Elizabeth Taylor, to
earrings worn by Marilyn Monroe and
Grace Kelly, to period pieces worn by
Bette Davis and Ronald Colman. There is
no charge to view this exhibition, which
is located at International Terminal
Departures Level 3 Pre-Security.

Meanwhile, heat the oven to 425 F.
On a rimmed baking sheet, toss the
cauliflower with 2 tablespoons of the
oil and a bit of salt and pepper.
Arrange in a single layer and bake on
the ovens upper shelf, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 15 to 20
minutes. Set aside.

until browned on both sides, about 5
minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set
aside.
Add the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons of oil to the skillet. When the
oil is heated, add the onion and cook,
stirring occasionally, until the onion
is golden, about 10 minutes. Add the
tomatoes and cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic,
chili and ginger. Cook, stirring, for 2
minutes. Add the garam masala,
cayenne and turmeric and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
Several handfuls at a time, place the

Du Bois wondered, however, if the

STEM model campus might work better at the school in San Carlos, slated
to be built at 535 Old County Road,
and suggested perhaps establishing a
more traditional, neighborhood
school in Menlo Park to alleviate the
concerns of local residents.
We may want to get more community input before we get too far, she
said.
Board president Allen Weiner agreed,
and said it is in the best interest of the
district to ensure the vision of the
school is aligned with the desire of the
community.
If you make a great school, and
nobody likes it, they wont come, he
said.
The school will primarily serve students from communities in the southern region of the district, such as
Redwood City, Menlo Park and East
Menlo Park, but students from all over
the district will be considered for
enrollment as well, according to a district report.
David Reilly, assistant superintendent of Human Resources and Student
Services, who is taking the lead on
developing the new school, encouraged community members to be
patient before expressing concerns
about the proposed curriculum.
Reilly said the district should move
forward with shaping the STEM pro-

gramming at the new school, then go

to the community for feedback once a
more cohesive vision of the programming is formed.
This is out of the box, this is new,
so I think the opposition is natural,
he said.
According to a districtwide survey,
school community members wished to
see programs such health science,
medical technology, computer science, digital and media arts be
addressed in the curriculum.
The district is also interested in collaborating with the wealth of local
businesses that specialize in the science and technology industries near
Silicon Valley to offer unique education programs at the school.
As well, the high school district
plans to partner with the San Mateo
County Community College District
to offer students course work that can
translate easily to the job market, such
as kinesiology, nursing, engineering,
environmental technology and computer science, according to the district
report.
Trustees expressed enthusiasm for
the 21st century-centric learning
opportunities the school plans to
implement.

end, Flannigan said.
The air district board is comprised of
officials from the Bay Areas nine
counties. Daly City Councilman David
Canepa represents the county and
Carole Groom, president of the San
Mateo County Board of Supervisors,
chairs the 22-person board.
Canepa has also heard from some of
his constituents raising concerns
about the proposed changes.
Most are concerned about the cost of
replacement, Canepa said, while others wonder how the air district plans to
enforce the rule changes and if it means
someone will be coming into their
homes to make inspections.
Some are also concerned it will delay
the sale of their home, Canepa said.
The district already has mandatory
burn bans when particulate matter
reaches unhealthy levels. Thats when
it calls for a Spare the Air day, when
alerts are issued and wood burning is
prohibited.
Other changes the air district is considering include a sole source of heat
exemption for those who do not have
central or other sources of heating.
Individuals who claim that wood is

place or stove ranges from $4,000 to
$25, 000,
said
SAMCARs
Government Affairs Director Paul
Stewart.
The point-of-sale requirement will
also take up to 50 years to implement
by replacing or converting all the old
stoves or fireplaces, Stewart said.
The air district also does not have
the means to inspect and certify every
single home sale where a fireplace or
wood-burning stove is involved,
Stewart said.
The air district is looking to update
its wood-burning rules that were
adopted in 2008 to further protect
public health and meet federal standards, said the districts Tom
Flannigan.
The fine particulate matter from
wood smoke is the largest source of
wintertime air pollution in the Bay
Area, he said.
A series of workshops will be held
between now and the end of April lead-

23

t h i n g t o b e do i n g .
He voiced especially strong support
for the proposal to use a linked learning approach, which ties career-based
learning and traditional academics.
This is the most effective, most
promising, approach that is broadly
out there, he said.
Trustees instructed Reilly to move
forward with further establishing the
STEM programming at the school,
along with a plan to form a task force
comprised of district officials, representatives from the community college district, teachers, students and
partners from the science and technology industry to address the issue.
Recently appointed trustee Laura
Martinez, who served previously as a
councilwoman in East Palo Alto, was
absent from the discussion.
Superintendent James Lianides has
said the district will proceed with
building the Menlo Park school, while
working with the community in San
Carlos to establish an approach agreeable to both parties.
The San Carlos City Council sent a
letter to the school district in February
opposing building the new school, but
the city has limited power to stop the
development, because the district is
exempt from local zoning laws.
The district will use money from
Measure A, a $265 million facilities
bond passed last year, to build the new
schools.

the sole source of heat in their homes
will have to switch to a Environmental
Protection Agency-certified stove.
Individuals could also be cited for
exceeding visible emissions limits.
If a home produces a profuse amount
of smoke that lasts more than three
minutes, a citation can also be issued.
SAMCAR is also concerned the rules
may unfairly impact individuals on
fixed incomes such as seniors or persons with special needs.
There is also a concern about what
effects the new rules will have on historic homes, Stewart said.
Stewart is hoping the proposed
changes to wood-burning rules are
revamped before the board votes on
them.
They need to get rid of point of
sale, Stewart said.
The air district will conduct a work shop starting at 6 p.m., Monday, April
6, Redwood City Public Library, downtown branch, 1044 Middlefield Road,
Redwood City.

THE DAILY JOURNAL

OLSON
Continued from page 1
including curriculum and instruction, budget
development, fiscal oversight and human
resources, board president Kevin Martinez
said in the release. She is known to be a
respected student-centered leader who is
highly visible, approachable and accessible. We look forward to her joining San
Bruno Park as our new superintendent.
Olson will replace Superintendent David
Hutt, who was ousted by the Board of
Trustees following his recommendation to
close one of the districts neighborhoods
schools.
Should she accept the job, Olson will step
into a district mired with financial distress
and labor unrest, as contract negotiations
with the worker unions have soured amidst
officials grappling with a structural deficit.
Trustees recently approved laying off 17
teachers in an effort to help close a $2.1
million deficit that the district faced this
year, which followed an approval to implement 1 percent pay cuts to all labor groups.
The 1 percent cuts have not been implemented, as they were not agreed upon
through collective bargaining.

BELI DELI
Continued from page 1
Ive maintained all the recipes, kept it
going. Its what you know, love and enjoy.
When people come back from 20, 30 years,
they want their Dagowood, they want their
chicken curry, things that weve maintained. And thats the beauty of it, because
youve kept it the same and thats where
weve maintained our good will. People
love it. Its going to be so sad to close,
Nikoloff said.
A former sales engineer who worked for
technology companies in Silicon Valley,
Nikoloff said she invested in Beli Deli
because she felt it would allow her to dedicate more time to being a single mom. With
her kids now off at college, Nikoloff said,
moms flying the coop. Major, major new
chapter in my life and its exciting, yet
scary.
Despite having tried to find a buyer who

As officials look to trim from the deficit,

teachers are asking for their first raise in
nearly a decade, while the district responded
by offering a pay cut.
The tumultuous relationship has caused
the San Bruno community to rally behind
teachers, which came to a head last month
when parents at Belle Air Elementary
School staged a sick out, and kept their
kids out of classes for the day in a sign of
solidarity with educators.
Teachers and district officials have agreed
to enter mediation, with hopes to resolve
the contract disagreement.
Julia Maynard, president of the districts
teacher union, said educators were pleased
with the selection of Olson as a finalist.
We are really happy, she said. She
seems like someone who understands what
we need to move forward and grow as a district.
Representatives from the teachers union
and members of the classified staff were
allowed to participate in interviews with
potential candidates.
Many of the districts financial woes stem
from the mismanagement of the sale of Carl
Sandburg Elementary, which brought the
district $30.5 million in 2005, but has
since dried up after years of officials electing to pay bills from the revenue.
would continue in the Beli Deli fashion,
Nikoloff said shes confident in the new
owner who is anticipated to open Farm
House, a farm-to-table restaurant, in the
coming months.
As customers flocked to the shop
Thursday ready to indulge in their favorite
sandwiches, many vowed to return Friday
for one last fix.
Belmont resident Don Floyd, whos been
frequenting the shop at 1301 Sixth Ave.
since 1972 when it formerly served as a
small market, was sad to say goodbye.
It was the best sandwich Ive ever had,
and that Im going to miss. Im going to
miss Gin [Nikoloff] too, Floyd said. Its
really too bad that its closing. But things
move on I guess.
While Nikoloff said shes excited to start
a new chapter in her life, retire and move to
South Lake Tahoe, shes not ready to abandon fans yet. Nikoloff is in the process of
developing a Beli Deli cookbook full of the
classics and more.
Im just so jazzed to develop my cookbook for everybody, Nikoloff said. Its

Fluctuations in the states funding model

have made the districts bottom line appear
even more murky, as it recently switched
classification to basic aid, which means
property tax drives its revenue stream.
But the district remains on the border of
being considered revenue limit, which
would switch it back to being funded by the
state, according to interim Chief Business
Official Terri Ryland.
Recently, the district has discussed the
process of looking into a parcel tax, which
really primarily all of the Beli Deli
favorites and little hints. I want to do catering hints for when you have a dinner party
at home, how much do you make. Because
people always ultimately make way more
than you need and you end up with so much
waste. And I really love it when you make
just the right amount because if you have
extra, youre just throwing money away.
When it comes to catering, Nikoloff said
she and her staff have it down to a science
a skill developed after years of filling catering orders of up to 400 sandwiches in a
morning.
But things werent always easy.
In the beginning, it was so overwhelming, you didnt have time to walk, crawl,
you ran, and you ran a marathon. Just taking
on this new business and it was very new to
me. I had staff ready and business was booming in 2006, 2007 and in 2008, of course
that waterfall came down and the recession
hit. I held on and I did my best to keep
everything up and running and the customer
base was solid, Nikoloff said. But the
dynamics have changed dramatically

would provide it a sustainable, dedicated

funding source. Voters shot down a $199
parcel tax proposal in the fall 2012 election.
During her tenure at Enterprise
Elementary School District, Olson has been
successful in attaining grant funding for students and technology, according to the
release.
She has also advocated for students to
focus on college and career preparedness, as
well as valuing professional development
for teachers, according to the release.
I am both humbled and extremely gratified to have been selected for this incredible
opportunity by the San Bruno Park Board.
My entire career has been focused on doing
whats best for children, she said in the
release. I look forward to continuing to
pursue academic excellence, for all children
in San Bruno Park. This is an exciting
opportunity and I am looking forward to
meeting the community.
Should her hiring ultimately be approved,
she would join the district July 1. Her salary
is part of the final negotiations but Hutt
makes $132,138 plus benefits.

because of the recession and I think the food
industry, it still has to recoup. My vendors and I, they believe its the fast foods
that are coming up that are taking from the
mom-and-pop shops.
But loyal customers Richard Boe and his
son said they frequent the friendly shop as a
healthy alternative.
Our family, were not big on fast food.
We dont eat out a ton, but when we do, we
try to make healthy choices, Boe said.
Nikoloff prides herself on serving fresh
ingredients and urges customers to look out
for her upcoming recipe book.
Fending off tears as she talked about her
staff and loyal customers she knows by
name, Nikoloff said the transition will be
tough.
People are hurting, people are really
feeling it and I would feel the same way,
Nikoloff said. Because of all the places you
know and love, when they go away, its part
of your life.
