remission. Lee, who com-
pleted a year of chemo in
March 2015 and is now can-
cer-free, was the first re-
cipient. Since its launch two
years ago, the Shelter Proj-
ect has served 400 patients
across California, Gershoni
said.
He and partners Mat-
thew Lee and Nate Fergu-
son wanted to find a way
to give back to the medi-
cal marijuana community,
which had led the fight for
legalization.
“At first, we were just
giving free product to Alex,”
Gershoni said. “Then Matt
went on a surfing trip and
had a Zen moment coming
out of the water. He said
we should start an actual
nonprofit where we’re reg-
istering people and put it on
our website. It took off from
there.”
At the time, he said, Jetty
Extracts was one of only five
companies in the state with
compassionate cannabis oil
donation programs. You
must have a valid California
medical marijuana identi-
fication card and a cancer
diagnosis to sign up. A few
people who didn’t have can-
cer slipped through, but the
company said that hasn’t
happened often.
Oakland resident Kathy
Chambliss had breast can-
cer surgery in September,
followed by chemotherapy
in January. She discovered
the Shelter Project through
co-workers who also had
gone through cancer treat-
ment. She got a medical
marijuana card and signed
up.
“What I do is email them
and let them know which
one works best for me,”
Chambliss said. “It relaxes
me and helps me rest bet-
ter. Everything doesn’t have
to be a pharmaceutical.”
The Shelter Project is
run out of Jetty Extracts’
plant, tucked away in an
industrial area in East Oak-
land. The company uses
CO2 to extract cannabis oil
from plant buds for use in
vaporizers, among other
methods. The plant buds

can later be ingested.
Workers hand-pack
small packets bearing the
Shelter Project logo with
prefilled vape cartridges
and other items, which are
then delivered to patients.
Shelter Project manager
Lindsey Friedman said the
patients decide what type of
cannabis they want. Some
have done research or got-
ten advice from health pro-
fessionals.
“We provide them with
the resources to get edu-
cated on what types of can-
nabis there are and the dif-
ferent ways to consume it,”
she said. “After they decide
what’s right for them, then
we make a plan for medi-
cine.”
The company recently
began making supposi-
tories exclusively for its
Shelter Project patients be-
cause there were so many
requests for them. When
people use suppositories, 80
percent of the cannabinoids
get absorbed into the body,
far more than when vap-
ing or ingesting cannabis,
Friedman said.
“It goes straight to the
affected area and doesn’t
get you psychoactively
high,” Friedman said. “So a
lot of people who never used
cannabis and were always
against it feel comfortable
with the suppositories.”

ter in Oakland, the largest
dispensary in the country,

flowers high in CBD — one
of the cannabinoids in the
cannabis plant that doesn’t
make a person high — to the
Shelter Project and refers
its cancer patients there.
“It’s more product, and
it’s also different because
theirs is cannabis oil, and
we provide flowers,” said
Harborside ombuds man-
ager Danielle Barber.
Gershoni said he wants
to expand the Shelter Proj-
ect and will be looking to
ask more businesses to do-
nate. But for now, Jetty Ex-
tracts is covering the costs
of a program that many
cancer patients have come
to rely on.
Titania Numa, 76, a busi-
ness owner in unincorpo-
rated Contra Costa County,
was diagnosed with mul-
tiple myeloma in 2008. She
suffers from numbness in
her left fingers and an ir-
reversible condition where
her right eye has swollen
in its socket. She signed up
for the Shelter Project six
months ago.
Numa said sometimes
her (oil) cartridges get
stuck, but whenever she
has problems, the Shelter
Project staff are always re-
sponsive.
“I wake up, and I can’t
go back to sleep,” Numa
said. “That’s when the va-
por comes in handy. I feel so
grateful, I can’t even begin

have been counted as
“present” in records used
to calculate the amount
of funding the schools get
from the state. And last
year, the company reached
a $168.5 million settlement
with the state over claims
it had done just that.
A spokesman for K12
declined to comment on
the legislation.
California’s effort to
rein in for-profit charters
is at odds with the Trump
administration, whose top
education official, U.S.
Secretary of Education
Betsy DeVos, has long
been a supporter of the
very for-profit companies
these bills aim to stifle.
When DeVos’ hus-
band, Dick, ran for gover-
nor of Michigan in 2006,
he disclosed that they
were early investors in
K12. And as chairwoman
of the American Federa-
tion for Children, a school
choice advocacy group,
Betsy DeVos repeatedly
called for expanding
families’ access to online
“virtual” schools.
McCarty’s bill would
bar charter schools oper-
ated by for-profit compa-
nies or management or-
ganizations, and it could
block companies like K12
from running schools in
this state.
It would also impact
three online schools man-
aged by a for-profit com-
pany called Connections
Academy whose reading
test scores exceed the
state average, according
to state education data.
The measure re-
sembles legislation that
stalled in the final days
of last year’s legislative
session after the Califor-
nia Teachers Association
and the California Char-
ter Schools Association
failed to reach agreement
on amendments.
Virginia-based K12
now faces a federal securi-
ties fraud lawsuit filed by
shareholders as well. Seek-
ing to dismiss the case, the
company has argued in
court filings that the plain-
burden to prove the com-
plaint is justified.
Still, in the months
since Trump’s election,
K12’s stock price has al-
most doubled.
“These companies are
ripping off taxpayers and
making a lot of money at
students’ expense,” Mc-
Carty said. “Enough.”
The California Charter
Schools Association shares
McCarty’s concerns, but
the powerful advocacy
group disagrees with his
approach.
Fearing that overbroad
language in AB 406 could
impact routine contract-
ing and send successful
charter schools’ opera-
tions into disarray, the
organization is sponsoring
an alternative, Senate Bill
806.
Authored by Demo-
cratic state Sen. Steve
Glazer of Orinda, the
measure seeks to create
a “firewall” between for-
profit contractors and the
nonprofit charter schools
they serve.
SB 806 would prohibit
the companies from select-
ing a school’s board mem-
bers, approving its budget
or supervising any of its
teachers. It would also
force all charter schools to
comply with existing open
meeting and open record
laws.
“We don’t think it’s
appropriate to prohibit
charter schools from con-
tracting with (for-profit
companies). We want
to create some nuance
around when that sort of
contracting is appropri-
ate,” said Colin Miller, a
senior adviser to the asso-
ciation.
Lawmakers will con-
sider the measures for
the first time in education
policy committee hearings
scheduled for later this
month and early May.

Is crating
a dog a
form of
cruelty?
DEAR JOAN: My daughter
bought a Great Dane puppy
as a birthday present for
her husband almost two
years ago. He still chews
on whatever odd shoe or
stuffed animal is lying
around and will bark across
the fence at the neighbor’s
dog.
My daughter is worried
about the chewing and has
said: “We can’t trust him.”
Thus, they leave him in a
crate in the laundry room
from the time they leave for
work to the time they get
home, late afternoon.
He also
has to sleep
in a crate at
night, which
is in their
bedroom.
They bought
JOAN MORRIS the largest
ANIMAL LIFE crate made,
but this is a
Great Dane — he can turn
around, barely, but can’t
fully stand.
I feel so bad for the dog.
It’s like the poor thing is
left in a cramped jail cell.
My daughter seems to
think that dogs like being
crated and it makes them
feel safe. I think it’s cruel.
Who’s right?
Robert Jones
San Jose
DEAR ROBERT: Dog crat-
ing has its supporters and
detractors. There’s no
doubt it’s a useful training
tool, especially for puppies
being housebroken. It also
can be used to teach dogs
not to chew on things. It
should never be used as a
form of punishment or for
the mere convenience of
the pet owner.
Dogs spend about 16
hours a day sleeping, and
they often do feel more
comfortable and at ease
in a cozy, enclosed spaces.
Those who study domestic
dogs, wild dogs and wolves,
calling it “denning.”
If the dog has no bad
associations with the crate,
they are happy to go inside
to sleep, feeling protected
and safe.
Dogs never should be
left in their crates for more
than half the day, or longer
than overnight. I think your
daughter is pushing the
time limit on her dog, and I
hope that when she and her
husband get home, they let
the dog out and interact with
it, walking and playing.
Dogs are social creatures
and need the company of
other dogs and humans.
If they are left too long in
a crate, they can develop
“cage rage,” and become de-
pressed, anxious or fearful.
The size of the crate
matters, too. It should be
large enough for the dog
to turn around, but it also
needs to be tall enough that
the dog can stand without
stooping. In addition to the
overall isolation in a crate,
dogs need exercise so
spending too long in a crate
is not good for them.
I recognize the difficulty
of dealing with a dog that
can’t be trusted, however,
the dog shouldn’t be pun-
ished or caged. It should
be trained. When the dog
is in its crate during the
day, your daughter should
give him a toy that contains
treats inside that the dog
has to work to get out.
This will not only pro-
vide him with mental and
physical stimulation, it also
will teach him that chewing
on certain things is reward-
ing, chewing on others is
not. When he’s out of the
crate, your daughter and
son-in-law should watch
him and if he starts chew-
ing on something he’s not
supposed to, gently divert
his attention with some-
thing that is OK to chew.
Once the dog has earned
your daughter’s trust, she
should let the dog decide
when to go into the crate.
In the meantime, she needs
to invest in a slightly taller
crate.

Kirk Dougherty as Rodolfo and Sylvia Lee as Mimi deliver powerful performances in Opera San Jose’s new production
of “La Bohème” at the California Theatre through the end of the month.
‘La Boheme’ still relevant for our times
Updated production
about doomed lovers
trapped in poverty
By Georgia Rowe
Correspondent
There’s a moment in
Act III of “La Bohème”
when the young lovers
Mimi and Rodolfo, meet-
ing outside an inn on a
freezing winter night,
sing longingly about the
warmth of April.
It’s just a brief episode,
but it’s an uncommonly
poignant one, and at Opera
San Jose’s vibrant open-
ing night performance of
Puccini’s opera Saturday
at the California The-
atre, it seemed to radiate
warmth as only this ever-
green masterpiece can.
For operagoers who
have experienced “Bo-
hème” numerous times
— and that includes pretty
much anyone who attends
live opera on a regular ba-
sis — the 1896 melodrama
about struggling young
artists enduring a Pari-
sian winter can be easy to
dismiss.

Berkeley
Police arrest 23 in violent protests
Stabbing among 11 injuries as Trump
supporters, opponents clash in park
By Rick Hurd
rhurd@bayareanewsgroup.com
BERKELEY — The ar-
rest total from Saturday’s
violent clash between pro-
testers supporting or op-
posing President Donald
Trump grew to 23 on Sun-
day when Alameda County
Sheriff’s Office officials re-
leased the names of those
who were nabbed.
Police late Saturday
originally announced 20
arrests and 11 injuries after
fighting broke out at Mar-
tin Luther King Jr. Civic
Center Park, where Trump
backers and members
of the so-called alt-right
movement held a “free
speech” rally. Opponents
of the movement, calling
themselves anti-fascists,
also were there among the
crowd of about 200.
The two sides wasted
no time in going after each
other with fists, sticks,
flagpoles and worse.
Eleven people were in-
jured, including one per-
son who was stabbed, po-
lice said.
According to the Sher-
iff’s Office arrest log, seven
people were arrested on
suspicion of committing
felonies, and 16 others
were arrested on suspicion
of committing misdemean-
ors. Berkeley police did not
return phone calls Sunday,
but the Sheriff’s Office con-
firmed the arrest log.
performed with the kind
of vocal assurance and
dramatic flair that was in
evidence throughout Sat-
urday’s opening, it’s a won-
derful night in the theater
— and a bracing reminder
that our own young artists
are still struggling to sur-
vive in freezing garrets,
and the divide between
rich and poor is growing
wider than ever.
This revival, directed
by Michael Shell and
conducted by Joseph
Marcheso, caps a strong
Opera San Jose season
that included Donizetti’s
“Lucia di Lammermoor,”
Rossini’s “The Barber of
Seville” and Kevin Puts’
“Silent Night,” and it
boasts a sturdy, faithful
staging and a youthful,
fully engaged cast.
Saturday, the quartet of
singers at the center of the
opera was especially viva-
cious, beginning with the
Mimi of Sylvia Lee, whose
lithe, pure-toned soprano
projected the consumptive
seamstress’s girlish sweet-
ness in silvery, forthright
phrasing (Lee repeats the
performance on April 20
and 30; soprano Julie Ad-
ams will sing the role April
23 and 28).
Michael Hornsby, 27;
Willie Morning, 59; Geo-
vanni Ramirez, 32; Tahtan-
erriah Sessomshowell, 26;
Carlos Barbarossa, 29;
Luke Dennis, 36; and Rob-
ert Peete, 52, face felony
charges, according to the
log.
“The charges include
arrests for assault with a
deadly weapon and sev-
eral other felony assaults,”
police said in an announce-
ment Saturday evening,
adding that more arrests
would likely be pursued
after video and social me-
dia posts were reviewed.
Police in riot gear
were on hand to try to
keep the peace, with lim-
ited success. During the
melee, loud explosions
were heard in the crowd,
immediately followed by
fistfights. BART closed its
downtown Berkeley sta-
tion during the protests.
In its Saturday state-
ment, police said officers
tried to protect people and
their free speech rights —
despite organizers’ lack of
a permit — by prohibiting
potential weapons, limiting
park entry and exit, and
sharing citation and arrest
risks for rule violations.
They put up a plastic barri-
cade in an attempt to keep
the opposing sides apart
and collected anything that
could be used as a weapon.
Police had banned metal
pipes, baseball or softball

made his finest company

with power, focus and
elegant musical line, he
delivered his Act I aria,
“Che gelida manina,” with
ardor and generous, ring-

Baritone Matthew

likable, big-hearted char-

the rally found a replica

Saturday’s protest fol-
lowed a series of demon-
strations — both violent
and nonviolent — that
have swept the country
since Trump took office in
January.
A March 4 rally and
counter-protest in Berke-
ley, planned by several of
the same groups as those
who announced this one,
also resulted in several in-
juries and arrests.

energy and depth to the
musician Schaunard.
Baritone Carl King was

Benoit, and bass-baritone
Vagarsh Martirosyan was
Musetta’s elderly sugar
daddy, Alcindoro. The Op-
era San Jose Chorus made
well-calibrated contribu-

scenes.
There are a few un-
usual touches in Shell’s
production, which unfolds
on effective sets by Kim
A. Tolman, with lighting
by Pamila Z. Gray and
costumes by Alina Bokov-
ikova.
Act I opens on Christ-
mas Eve, and Shell moves
it forward a few years, to
the first Christmas Eve af-
ter World War I. Colline is
blind — perhaps from an
injury sustained in the war
— and he and Schaunard
seem to suggest a closer
relationship than we see
in most productions of this
opera.
No matter — this is
still the “La Bohème” op-
era fans love, with all of
Puccini’s warmth, heart-
ache and enduring music
intact.

Two
critical
after fire
at motel
Unit at Casa Linda
Motel badly damaged
in the explosion

SAN JOSE — Two peo-
ple were critically injured in
an explosion at a Monterey
Road motel early Sunday
that’s being investigated as
a crime scene, according to
fire officials.
One unit at the Casa
Linda Motel at 1669 Mon-
terey Road was badly dam-
aged in the blast, said fire
Capt. Mike Van Elgort, with
the inside looking “like it
had a flashover in there”
and a window blown out.
“Fire investigators are
checking for origin and
cause,” Van Elgort said,
“but police are investigat-
ing and it is considered sus-
picious.”
There was no further
information immediately
available about the two
adults injured in the blast,
who were both taken to lo-
cal hospitals.
The explosion was first
reported at 12:27 a.m.,
and a second alarm was
quickly sounded because
of accounts coming in. But
arriving firefighters were
able to quickly knock down
the blaze and no other units
were affected, although
they were evacuated while
inspectors checked the
building’s structure for
damage.
Another fire early Sun-
day caused significant dam-
age to a Wienerschnitzel
restaurant on the 2800
block of Story Road. While
the cause is under investi-
gation, Van Elgort said it
appears to be accidental.
Milpitas
Man
surrenders
after theft
of football

MILPITAS — Police
have arrested a man in con-
nection with a stolen foot-
ball signed by Hall of Fame
football player Jerry Rice
and auctioned at a charity
event.
San Jose resident Pat-
rick Van Lam, 45, was
caught on video after a live
auction April 9 at the Koi
Palace restaurant in Milpi-
tas. Once Lam realized his
image from the video was
released to local media, he
surrendered to detectives
on Saturday, said Milpitas
Police Sgt. Steven Fox.
Lam returned the foot-
ball, police said, and was
booked into Santa Clara
County main jail on bur-
glary and grand theft.
The football was auc-
tioned for $3,500 to Amy Fu.
The theft happened when
Fu left the football unat-
tended at the restaurant’s
front desk to take a photo,
police said. Two suspects
were seen grabbing the ball
and taking off. The suspects
were diners unassociated
with the fundraising event.
Officers are searching for
other “persons of interest.”
The auction raised
money to benefit the Prince
of Peace Children’s Home
in Tianjin, which funds sur-
gery and medical care for
orphans with special needs.
Anyone with any informa-
tion regarding the suspects
or persons of interest is asked
to call the Milpitas Police De-
partment at 408-586-2400.

about noon,” said Mikey

Robles, who works at the in-
spection station searching
for invasive mussels at An-
derson Lake County Park.
“but with this weather, we
didn’t see too much.”
Steve Anderson, a fore-
caster with the National
Weather Service, said more
of the same can be expected
for much of the Bay Area
until midweek.
“It’s just one storm, but it
will bring showery weather
through about Tuesday be-
fore we start to dry out and
warm up,” Anderson said.
“Everyone has an equal
chance of catching one of
the heavier downpours —
it’s impossible to say where
those will happen.”
But Anderson said it’s
going to be mostly light
showers, causing “no antici-
pated problems at all.”
Meanwhile, the record
for the wettest water year
for the Northern Sierra fell
on Thursday, when storms
raised the bar above the
bring showery
weather through
about Tuesday.”
— Steve Anderson,
forecaster
old high of 88.5 inches, set
in the 1982-1983 season. It
currently sits at 90.2 inches
and rising.
Back at Anderson Reser-
voir, the water level reached
a milestone of its own when
it dropped to 68 percent
capacity midafternoon Sun-
day despite the rain.
That’s the first time
it has gotten to that level
since it crested the spillway
in February in what’s been
called a harbinger of the
Coyote Creek flooding that
came three days later.
The Santa Clara Valley
Water District is required
to keep the lake at that
lower level because of seis-
mic concerns, and a release
pipe was still blasting water
out on Sunday.
Ed McGettigan, who lives
in Morgan Hill and hikes up
“There’s an island out
there that pops up when the
water is low,” he said. “And
it was still low in January,
then it went to the top in
just a few weeks.”
While Easter weekend
didn’t bring the anticipated
boating boon to Anderson
Lake, Anderson, the fore-
caster, said just wait until
next weekend — no rain in
sight, and temperatures in
the 70s and 80s.
Tamara Clark, spokes-
woman for Santa Clara
County Parks, said she’s
heard a lot of buzz from
boaters — they’re eager to
get back onto waters that
after five years of drought
had been considerably less
conducive to fishing and
fun.
Saturday marked the
start of boating season at
Coyote Lake and Stevens
Creek Reservoir; Anderson
opened up April 1.
“They’re excited, the
ones from this area and be-
yond,” she said. “It’s been
so long since we’ve seen this
amount of water.”

Making a splash Menlo Park

Canines take leap at dog show Man dies in RV fire

Australian shepherd
Dylan barked while staring
fixedly at the orange toy
held by his owner, Geor-

moved down the launch

toy over the water, Dylan
sprinted down the dock
and launched himself in

with a splash.
Dylan was a top con-
tender in the North Amer-
ica Diving Dogs competi-
tion held outside of the
Sacramento Dog Show at
Cal Expo on Sunday. Inside
the pavilions, thousands of
dogs competed over four
days, culminating in Sun-
day’s event. Other than
the sporty diving dogs and
barn hunt competitions
held outside, there were
obedience competitions
and conformation compe-
titions, which judge how
closely a dog meets the
American Kennel Club’s
standards for the breed.
Dylan was at the show
for the diving competition.
Livell-Hower occasionally
shows him in obedience
shows, but he’s mostly a
performance dog, mean-
ing he participates in sport
competitions.
“It’s his favorite thing,”
Livell-Hower said. “When
we parked, he saw them
putting up the dock and he
wouldn’t shut up. I had to
close all the blinds (in my
RV).”
The North America Div-
ing Dogs competition was
new this year at the dog
show, with all of the equip-
ment brought by Lise Ann
Strum and her husband,
Scott Dike.
“We’re always looking
for new things to add to the
show,” said promoter Rich
Vida. “(Diving dogs) draw
quite a crowd.”
The diving pool looks
like a wider and shorter
lane from a swimming pool
for people, but there’s a
long turf dock leading up
to the edge so the dogs
can work up momentum.
Strum got involved with
North America Diving
Dogs when her Belgian
Malinois, Vhoebe, jumped
almost 25 feet on her first
time off the dock.
“We started doing it
as a sport and then we
started doing it as a busi-
ness,” Strum said. “We had
no idea (this sport existed).
This dog has taken us on an
adventure.”
For the last three years,
Strum and Dike have taken
the mobile diving dock to
American Kennel Club
dog shows in the western
United States.
Titles won on the dock
are recognized by the AKC,
but a dog doesn’t have to
be part of the club to par-
ticipate.
The Sacramento Ken-
nel Club’s dog show is al-
most 100 years old. It be-
gan as part of the state fair
before growing to include
specialty clubs and events
such as dock diving.

MENLO PARK — A 52-
year-old man died Sunday
morning when his recre-
ational vehicle caught fire,
an incident the city’s fire
chief called tragic.
The fire was reported
about 5:55 a.m. at 3190 Park
Lane in North Fair Oaks,
an unincorporated area of
San Mateo County. Fire
crews from Menlo Park and
Redwood City found smoke
coming from an RV parked
at the Park Lane address,
said Menlo Park Fire Pro-
tection District Fire Chief
Harold Schapelhouman.
The RV was loaded with
“an extreme amount of stor-
age,” but firefighters even-
tually worked their way to
the back of the vehicle. Af-
ter extinguishing the blaze,
Schapelhouman said, crews

extension cord running
through the driver’s side
door caused the fire.
“The cord had become
frayed over time and that
was the cause of the fire,”
Schapelhouman said. “It’s
not the way you should
power an RV, but it appears
he was living in there.”
As Bay Area housing
costs skyrocket, the fire
chief said, he’s seen people
living in a variety of unsafe
situations.
“These days we find
people living in sheds, base-
ment and attics — the Bay
Area is a booming place and
housing is expensive,” he
said. “And sometimes we
find people living in a way
where they power or heat
things that create problems.
It’s tragic.”

Slow recovery in San Joaquin Valley

For some, drought lingers

Many people must
still use water stored
in tanks in their yard

By Scott Smith
Associated Press

Nguyen Ngoc Hanh edits, prints and talks to students in the photography class he taught at
the Indochinese Refugee Resettlement Center, in San Jose.
Hanh

graphic genius,” said his-
torian Jean Libby, a friend
of Hanh’s who lives in Palo
Alto. Libby, 76, said the
power of Hanh’s photo-
graphs was in his distinct
and intimate portraits.
“When you have a por-
trait done by a master pho-
tographer, it’s very special,”
she said. “His close-up work
is recognizable. I can see
something online and I can
recognize it as his.”
At age 10, Hanh was
taken by French troops
from a Catholic orphanage
in Ha Dong, outside Hanoi,
according to Libby. The
troops a year later took him
to France, where he was ed-
ucated in Catholic schools.
He returned to his home-
land in 1946, when Vietnam
was still a French colony.
About a year later, he
secretly joined a commu-
nist youth group as part of
the Vietnamese resistance.
But when he was asked to
kill a French family of five
to prove his loyalty to Viet-
namese communist leader
Ho Chi Minh, Hanh hid
them instead after listening
to their pleas.
After the Vietnamese
defeated the French at Dien
Bien Phu in 1954, Hanh
joined the South Vietnam-
ese army and stayed in the
military until North Viet-
namese tanks rolled into
Saigon in April 1975. Rather
than fleeing with other of-
ficers, he took photos of the
South Vietnamese soldiers
left behind, according to
Libby.
Hanh’s pictures were
soon confiscated by the new

regime, and he was sent to a
“re-education” camp along
with tens of thousands of
other South Vietnamese of-
ficers. At one point, he was
forced to live 16 months in
a metal container in which
he couldn’t stand up or lie
down. He was allowed out
for only two hours a day but
was forced to kneel on bro-
ken glass and stare at the
sun.
When he returned to
his home eight years later,
Hanh found out that his
wife and children had fled
the country. His house was
occupied by strangers.
“They were raising pigs
upstairs,” Hanh told Mer-
cury News reporter De
Tran in 1995. “There was
unbearable heartbreak.”
Hanh had arrived in San
Jose in 1989 as a refugee af-
ter fleeing Vietnam by boat
four years earlier. Divorced
from his wife and estranged
from his children, he took a
job delivering mail to em-
ployees at Cirrus Logic,
a computer technology
company in Fremont. He

learned English with the
help of co-workers.
His visual career also
took on a new life when he
began teaching photogra-
phy to local youth. It was
one of his greatest passions,
according to Tam Nguyen,
a San Jose city councilman.
“He always had a smile
on his face. He was very
humble, simple and ap-
proachable,” Nguyen said.
“That’s why he had a lot of
students. They all loved him
so much.”
Nguyen said Hanh put
his soul into his work.
“It’s a sad loss because
he was one of a few of the pi-
oneers who helped establish
the art of photography for
South Vietnam,” Nguyen
said.
Hanh spent much of his
postwar life photographing
mountains, streams and
bridges.
“Mountains may erode,
rivers may run dry, ” he
once said. “The sky and the
moon may change, but I’ll
never forgive the commu-
nists.”
HANFORD — Knee-
high tufts of grass dot the
streets of Hardwick, a ru-
ral neighborhood with a
few dozen homes hemmed
in by vineyards and walnut
and almond orchards in
California’s agriculture-
rich San Joaquin Valley.
Nearby, the Kings River
— swollen with rainwater
and Sierra Nevada snow-
melt — meanders through
fields. Water is abundant
in the river but it may not
last.
Despite winter storms
that have turned much of
California’s parched land-
scape to vibrant green, the
drought has yet to loosen
its grip on thousands of
residents in the valley.
Many people must still use
water stored in large tanks
in their yard to wash dishes
and bathe.
Scientists at Stanford
University and NASA say
excessive pumping of wells
during the drought has
tapped out some under-
ground sources of water
that will never recover.
At the height of the
drought, nearly 2,400 wells
dried up, affecting 12,000
people, state officials said.
The drought emergency
remains in effect in Kings,
Fresno, Tulare and Tu-
olumne counties, even after
one of California’s wettest
winters in years prompted
officials to declare an end
to the historic, five-year
dry spell in nearly all of
the nation’s most populous
state.
David Miguel relies on
water from a large, black
emergency tank located
just steps from the front
door of his mobile home. A
water delivery truck tops it
off every few weeks.
“You can take a bath
with it, do dishes — no
problem,” said Miguel, a
64-year-old retired farm
hand who was raised on his

family’s long-gone dairy
operation in Hardwick. “I
wouldn’t drink it.”
Miguel and his neighbor
survive on the trucked-
in water and deliveries of
bottled drinking water.
They live in the last two
Hardwick homes awaiting
a state grant to hook into a
reliable water main.
Miguel doesn’t know
when his home will get con-
nected to the new 470-foot
community well outside the
county fire station, but he
anticipates a $50 monthly
water bill — more than it
costs to run his own well.
Miguel laughed when
asked what he thinks about
Gov. Jerry Brown’s re-
cent declaration that the
drought is over for most of
California.
“Oh, is that so?” he
joked.
Keeping the emergency
declaration in place in a
few areas allows officials to
prolong efforts to find per-
manent water supplies for
desperate residents.
In parts of the San Joa-
quin Valley, underground
aquifers — layers of earth
saturated by water — col-
lapsed from over-pump-
ing during years of dry
weather, according to
scientists at Stanford and
NASA who studied satel-
lite imagery to measure
sinking land.
They say layers of clay
soil have compacted, per-
manently reducing natural
aquifer storage capacity.
Throughout the San Joa-
quin Valley, the situation
has left roughly 900 homes
relying on storage tanks for
residential water.
SCOTT SMITH/ASSOCIATED PRESS
Emergency water tanks
for residents have cost the
state nearly $28 million
since 2014, with more than
half in Tulare County.
Calls for help have slowed
significantly, said Susan
Atkins of Self-Help Enter-
prises, a nonprofit organiza-
tion that helps residents get
tanks and navigate govern-
ment bureaucracy.
“But they’re still com-
ing in,” she said about the
calls.
In Hardwick, which has
no sidewalks or street-
lights, residents say their
wells began drying up after
farmers on three sides of
the community dug deep
wells to irrigate their or-
chards during the drought,
when water from rivers
and canals was scarce.
Resident Alvin Lea said
his 120-foot well that was
drilled in the 1960s dried
up, costing him $17,000 for
a new one that was more
than 100 feet deeper.
Lea, 77, a retired me-
chanic, keeps his swim-
ming pool full for his great-
grandchildren to play in
during scorching summer
days. He raises 200 exotic
birds, which also need to
drink, he said, tipping back
the brim of his hat to peer
at them through a wire
mesh enclosure.
Randy Herman, a long-
distance trucker with a
family, says it’s obvious to
him that his community is
a long way from rebound-
ing from drought.
“You got tanks, you got
water bottles,” Herman
said. “I don’t think the
drought’s over. It’s going
to take a long time.”

In Loving Memory
Clara M. Brown-Jones
Loving Clara Brown-Jones, passed away on Tuesday
April 11th at Stanford Hospital, just a few days short of
her 78th birthday. At the time of passing Ms. Clara was
surrounded by her baby daughter, and sisters at bedside.
She was born in Kingston Jamaica, and is the middle child
of nine siblings. She settled in Northern California in the
1970’s, where she then worked as a nurse at Stanford
Hospital for over a decade.
Ms. Clara was a very considerate and loving person, al-
ways thinking of others. In fact, even while battling ill-
ness she shared her concern to the nurses for their lack
of sleep working in the wee hours of the morning ask-
ing them to please get rest and apologizing to the doctor
for having to care for her. On behalf of the doctors and
nurses at Stanford Hospital that treated my mom during
her illness, I would like to thank them dearly for giving
my mother the best care, and for extending sincere kind-
ness and patience to her. Quoting my dear mother “The
nurses are so loving.” And yes everyone was truly loving
to my mother and our family, that extended love was in-
strumental with helping us get through that difficult time.
Ms. Clara had a heart of gold, she always made sure
her family and closest friends were taken care of. She
was a care giver to everyone. She loved to cook, travel,
and work in her garden, and was deeply devoted to her
family. In addition to her deep love for her family she
also had an intense love for god. She worked as a mis-
sionary for many years, and remained loyal up until her
last breath. My sweet mother had an infectious smile and
laugh. She lightened a room with her warm smile and
greeting. Anyone who met my mother always adopted her
as their own. She will be truly missed by her two daugh-
ters, three grandchildren, five great grandchildren, three
sisters, and a host of nieces, nephews, and many loving
friends.
Friends and family are invited to attend a quiet view-
ing at Spangler Mortuaries located at 399 S. San Antonio
Rd, Los Altos on April 19th 4:30pm – 8pm. Her memorial
service will be held on April 22nd at the Kingdom Hall of

Shirley Jeanne Koenig Triplett
March 31, 1921 – April 5, 2017
Resident of Monte Sereno, CA
Shirley Triplett passed away peacefully at home, sur-
rounded by her loving family. She was married for 64
years to her high school sweetheart, Raymond F. Triplett,
founder of Triplett Financial in San Jose. Shirley was born
in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where she and Ray met and
married. They later lived in Omaha, Nebraska, and in 1951
moved to the Santa Clara Valley.
Hers was a life filled with faith, learning, love, and ad-
venture. Devout Catholics, Shirley and Ray prayed the ro-
sary every night with their five children. An avid reader,
Shirley valued education highly, and constantly sought
learning opportunities for herself and her family.
Shirley was a smart, funny, gracious, and elegant woman.
She was the life-long caring confidante of her husband,
and supported him in business, sailing, and his many hob-
bies. Shirley was truly the wind that filled Ray’s sails. In
the early years, Shirley and Ray hunted and fished togeth-
er in Minnesota. They were also excellent dancers, and
loved playing tennis together. Later, her hobbies included
sewing, growing rhubarb, baking cobblers, canning, and
