SENATE PLAN TO STIFFEN BORDER SECURITY
President pitches budget plan
By Andrew Taylor
and Jim Kuhnhenn
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Mixing mod-
est curbs on spending with tax
increases reviled by Republicans,
President Barack Obama proposed a
$3.8 trillion budget on Wednesday
that would raise taxes on smokers
and wealthy Americans and trim
Social Security benefits for mil-
lions.
Obamas 2014 blueprint com-
bines a $242 billion infusion of new
spending for road and rail projects,
early education and jobs initiatives
all favored by
Democrats
with longer-term
savings from
p r o g r a m s
i n c l u d i n g
Medicare and
the military. It
promises at least
a start in cutting
huge annual fed-
eral decits.
The president pitched his plan as a
good-faith offer to his GOP rivals
since it incorporates a proposal he
made to Republicans in December
that wasnt radically different from
a GOP plan drafted by House
Speaker John Boehner. But it fol-
lows Januarys bitterly fought 10-
year, $600 billion-plus tax increase
that has stiffened GOP resolve
against further tax hikes.
I have already met Republicans
more than halfway, so in the coming
days and weeks I hope that
Republicans will come forward and
demonstrate that theyre really as
serious about the decit and debt as
they claim to be, Obama said.
He was having a dozen Senate
Republicans to the White House for
dinner Wednesday evening in hopes

Mandatory sewer lateral inspec-
tions and repairs when property
owners decide to sell their homes
will not be required in Belmont, the
council decided Tuesday night.
The Public Works Department
proposed to have sewer laterals
inspected and repaired before the
sale of the home to not only protect
the citys own aging sewer infra-
structure but to also protect the con-
sumer from any unforeseen prob-
lems with the underground pipes.
The point-of-sale mandate,
already in effect in several other
local cities due to a court decision,
was opposed by the San Mateo
County Association of Realtors,
who claimed the mandate could
kill the sale of the home.
Fixing a sewer lateral could cost
between $7,500 and $25,000.

NBC renews Carson

tinue with it. He also

Flavor Flav felony case
headed for trial in Vegas
LAS VEGAS Entertainer Flavor
Flav is facing a trial on felony charges
that he threatened his longtime girl-
friends 17-year-old son with a butcher
knife during a family argument.
The 54-year-old former rap and reality
TV star, whose legal name is William
Jonathan Drayton Jr., didnt testify dur-
ing a Wednesday evidence hearing in Las
Vegas Justice Court.
But the teen did. He pointed from the
witness stand toward Drayton at the
defendants table, identied him as the
man wearing a clock around his neck,
and told Justice of the Peace Melanie
Andress-Tobiasson that Drayton chased
him to a bedroom and stabbed the knife
through the door during the argument
early Oct. 17.
The teen quoted
the obscenity he says
Drayton used as the
rapper threatened to
kill him. Drayton
was standing 2 feet
away with the knife
still in his hand, the
boy said.
The Associated
Press is not reporting the boys name
because he is a juvenile.
The argument began when Drayton
woke the boy during a 3 a.m. argument
with the boys mother, Elizabeth Trujillo,
with whom he has lived for about eight
years. It escalated when the teen, a 6-
foot-3, 200-pound high school football
and basketball player, wrestled the 5-
foot-6 Drayton into a head lock in the
kitchen.
I told him, Youre not going to talk to
my mom like that, he testied. He
pushed me. ... I pushed him.
Defense attorney Tony Abbatangelo
later told the judge he believed Drayton
may have been acting in self-defense
when he allegedly grabbed the butcher
knife, a steak knife and a pizza cutter
during the scufe.
Abbatangelo noted that a police report
didnt include the quote the teen recalled
Wednesday.
Andress-Tobiasson said the evidence
was enough to bind Drayton over to state
court for trial.

San Mateo and two other counties are con-
stitutionally entitled to keep extra property
taxes grabbed by the state as part of an early
redevelopment cleanup bill, according to Sen.
Jerry Hill who is trying a second time to pass
legislation that would let them do so.
The tax is generated locally so the basic
question is should [the counties] have to
donate it back to the state general fund, said
Hill, D-San Mateo.
The state senators bill is a reintroduction of
a bill he submitted as an assemblyman. It was
vetoed by Gov. Jerry Brown in September out
of concern about the nal scal implications.
In his veto, Brown wrote that signing last
years bill would not be prudent when the
cost is unclear.
But Hill and Connie Juarez-Diroll, San
Mateo County legislative coordinator, said the
new gures show the counties are entitled to
approximately $500,000 rather than the
Department of Finances previously estimate
of up to $17 million. Both also say the states
own counsel is of the opin-
ion making San Mateo,
Marin and Napa counties
forfeit the excess
Educational Revenue
Augmentation Funds is
unconstitutional. Taken
together along with the
states rosier nancial situ-
ation, the bill should be
successful this time
around, Hill and Juarez-Diroll said.
Then again, nothing is a slam dunk,
Juarez-Diroll said.
However, she said the county, which is co-
sponsoring the bill with the Marin and Napa
counties, is fairly condent in its position.
The California State Association of
Counties is also urging passage of the bill,
writing in a letter to the head of the Senate
Governance and Finance Committee that it
will ensure fairness and equity while avoid-
ing any legal or constitutional challenges.
The money in question is the balance left
after local schools are funded with ERAF. The
redevelopment agency dissolution bill passed
last June called for withholding the funds to
repay local jurisdictions for the ongoing sales
tax and vehicle license fee revenue it previ-
ously diverted. It also promised to fund eco-
nomic revenue bonds issued in 2004. The rev-
enue and tax code entitles the counties to the
extra ERAF so the bill left the state taking
locally generated funds to pay its future debt
to the same counties.
Hill argues that the taking also violates
Proposition 1A, the prohibition on the state
reallocating property taxes that would cause
counties to lose revenue.
This bill is a way to do the right thing,
Hill said. Its a fairness issue.
Juarez-Diroll agrees having the state abide
by the Constitution is a bigger driving force
than the actual dollars at stake.
Its not a large amount so its really more
about the principle, she said.
The bills latest incarnation passed through
its rst committee unanimously and is sched-
uled for consideration by the appropriations
committee on Monday, April 15.

Second try for excess ERAF bill

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
San Mateo Mayor David Lim should be
able to add a second story onto his growing
familys Sugarloaf Neighborhood home after
the citys Planning Commission turned back a
neighbors appeal Tuesday night.
A city zoning administrator had previously
approved the Lim familys request to con-
struct a 109-square-foot rst-story addition
and a 640-square-feet second-story addition
onto their home but some neighbors appealed
the decision based on the fact their own home
would lose sweeping views of the Bay.
The neighbors, Terry Larson and Megan
Goggins, paid $515 to appeal the decision.
They can appeal the Planning Commissions
decision as well if they choose and have until
April 19 to do so. The appeal has cost the Lim
family $4,400 so far, they told the Daily
Journal previously.
The Planning Commission approved the
zoning administrators
decision on a 4-1 vote with
Commissioner Kelly
Moran voting no.
Larson and Goggins esti-
mate their property will
lose up to 25 percent of its
value with the Lim family
adding on to their house,
according to a letter sub-
mitted to the commission.
The couple contends
they will lose their central view toward San
Francisco at least 40 percent and up to 80 per-
cent of their total panoramic view, according
to the letter.
Lim even scaled the project back to appease
the neighbors after conducting required neigh-
borhood meetings.
The potential for Larson and Goggins to
lose up to $200,000 in the value of their home
was a big concern for Moran who understands
that views add substantial value to homes.
She is concerned too that allowing the Lim
addition to obstruct their neighbors view will
negatively impact the desirability of invest-
ing in the hills, she told the Daily Journal.
Who would invest in a home, she said, that
could lose so much value because another
neighbor decides to add on to their home.

COUNTY
GOVERNMENT
The Board of
S u p e r v i s o r s
Tuesday named
nine people, plus
two alternates, to
a committee
redrawing the supervisorial district lines
for future elections. The county
switched from a countywide system to
one in which a supervisor is chosen only
by the voters within a specic district.
Voters changed the charter in November
but the county must still redraw its lines
as part of settling a lawsuit over its pre-
vious at-large system. The committee
includes supervisors Adrienne Tissier
and Warren Slocum, Daly City
Councilman Sal Torres and East Palo
Alto Councilwoman Laura Martinez
as the elected members. The public
members are William Nack of Menlo
Park for District Four, Barbara
Arietta of Pacica for District Three,
Hayden Lee of Millbrae for District
One, Rebecca Ayson of Daly City for
District Five and Raymond Lee of San
Mateo for District Two.
The committee is expected to make a
recommendation by Sept. 13.
CITY GOVERNMENT
The San Carlos City Council
unanimously voted to set a May 28
hearing on proposed sewer rate increas-
es. Last year, the city approved a 6 per-
cent increase. According to the new
proposal, residential charges beginning
in July would jump 25 percent, fol-
lowed by 20 percent then 10 over the
next three years. According to the
Public Works Department, the
increases are needed to fund ongoing
operations and maintenance of the
pipelines and replenish the citys sewer
fund.

STATE/NATION
By Paul Larson
MILLBRAE Our
countrys economic
roller-coaster ride
has been interesting
and historic for
sure, but also very
troubling for many
families whove not
been as financially stable as others.
Recently though Ive been observing a
phenomenon with those we serve at the
CHAPEL OF THE HIGHLANDS. It may
be too early to confirm, but it appears that
there is a general state of confidence with
many families, along with the decisions and
choices they make during funeral
arrangements. Yes, I know you are thinking
that confidence is not a term you would
use to coincide with funeral arrangements,
but it appears to me that people I see are
tending to be more financially assured than
during the deepest years of The Great
Recession.
They say that the two things you cant
avoid are death and taxes. With that in
mind, during the economic downturn I saw a
very noticeable sense of thrift and
prudence with a lot of families who
experienced a death during that period.
Still, those who tended to cost shop at
various funeral homes selected CHAPEL
OF THE HIGHLANDS to handle funeral or
cremation arrangements. These families
found comfort with our service, and notably
with our more economic cost structure.
Now, lately the trend with families and
their funeral choices reminds me of the days
way before the recession hit. Its not that
people are utilizing their funds differently,
spending more or spending less, but that
they are more assertive and confident when
using their wallet. Seeing this over and over
gives me a good indication that something in
the economic climate is changing compared
to not that long ago.
Even though many of our honorable
elected officials in Sacramento and
Washington D.C. appear to be as inflexible
with economic issues as always, the air of
confidence with the families Ive been
dealing with means to me that these people
are feeling less pressured financially.
It is well known that when businesses do
well they hire more employees, and when
those employees are confident they will
spend their money on goods and services.
In turn, the companies that provide goods
and services will need competent employees
to create more goods, give more services,
and so onmaking a positive circle for a
healthy economy. In relation to that, after a
long period of U.S. manufacturing jobs
being sent over-seas there is news of a
growing number of companies bringing this
work back to the United States. Real Estate
values on the Peninsula remained in a good
state during the recession, but houses here
are now in demand more than ever.
Encouraging Hopeful and Positive
are words to describe the optimistic
vibrations that people are giving off. If the
community is becoming more comfortable
with spending, that indicates good health for
business and the enrichment of our
economic atmosphere. I hope Im right, so
lets all keep our fingers crossed.

funeral matters or want to make pre-
planning arrangements please feel free to

Senate plan to stiffen border security
By Erica Werner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Bipartisan immi-
gration legislation being written in the
Senate would require surveillance of 100
percent of the U.S. border with Mexico
and apprehension of 90 percent of people
trying to cross the border in certain high-
risk areas, a person familiar with the pro-
posals said Wednesday.
People living here illegally could begin
to get green cards in 10 years, but only if
a new southern border security plan is in
place, employers have adopted mandato-
ry electronic verication of their workers
legal status and a new electronic exit sys-
tem is operating at airports and seaports.
The person provided the information
on condition of anonymity because the
deliberations were private.
The contours of the tough new border
security plans emerged as senators moved
closer to unveiling sweeping legislation
within days that would put some 11 mil-
lion immigrants living here illegally on a
path to citizenship and allow tens of thou-
sands of high- and low-skilled workers
into the country on new visa programs, in
addition to securing the border.
Lawmakers and aides said all the major
elements were complete, or close to. A
nal deal was near on a new visa for agri-
culture workers. There were small details
to be dealt with on visas for high-tech
workers, but Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill.,
said it wasnt enough to hold up the bill.
We are closer now than we have been
in 25 years for serious immigration
reform, Durbin told reporters
Wednesday after he and other Democrats
in the Senate negotiating group briefed
members of the Congressional Hispanic
Caucus. This president is behind it, and
there is a strong, growing bipartisan effort
in the Senate to support it. We hope that
the House will do the same.
Meanwhile tens of thousands of pro-
immigration activists massed outside the
Capitol and in cities around the country to
push Congress to act. They waved
American ags and carried signs reading,
Reform immigration for America now!
The border security piece of the legisla-
tion is critical to getting support from
Republicans, but some Democrats have
opposed making a path to citizenship
contingent on border security. Sen. Chuck
Schumer, D-N.Y., said that the new
requirements wouldnt impede citizen-
ship.
A lot of people here would not want to
put dollars into the border, but as a price
to get citizenship, as long as its not an
impediment to citizenship but rather
works alongside citizenship, its some-
thing we can all live with, Schumer said,
after talking to the Hispanic House mem-
bers. What weve said all along is trig-
gers have to be objective and attainable in
a way it doesnt interfere or delay with
people becoming citizens, and thats in
the bill.
According to the person familiar with
the proposals, the new border security
requirements call for 100 percent surveil-
lance and a 90 percent apprehension rate
of border crossers or would-be crossers in
sectors where the majority of unautho-
rized entries take place.
The goals would be achieved by giving
the Department of Homeland Security six
months from the bills enactment to cre-
ate the new border security plan deploy-
ing the personnel, infrastructure and tech-
nology needed to achieve the 90 percent
effectiveness rate.

SAN FRANCISCO Demonstrators marched through
San Francisco Wednesday in one of several rallies across
California trying to shape the national immigration debate
and press Congress to grant a path toward citizenship for
immigrants living here illegally.
The crowd estimated to be about 100 people at the start of
the march quickly grew to an estimated several hundred peo-
ple as additional demonstrators joined those walking down
the citys Market Street on the way to Federal Building.
Members of the expanding crowd chanted in English and
Spanish and held signs and banners reading Reunite
Families Now and The IRS Agrees My Taxes Are Not
Illegal.
We are here because of our ancestors, our future genera-
tions and those who are detained, said the Rev. Deborah
Lee of the Interfaith Coalition for Immigrant Rights in
Northern California, one of groups taking part in the demon-
stration.
We are here for all of our families, she said.
Another demonstrator, Eva Seligman-Kennard, a board
member of the Jewish Community Relations Council, also
voiced her support for immigration reform.
We are all immigrants and nobody is free until we all are
free, she said.
About two dozen police ofcers monitored the crowd,
which was peaceful during the march.
When the demonstrators reached the Federal Building a
little before 5 p.m. the demonstrators milled outside holding
red and orange paper owers representing the number of
people deported daily for immigration violations.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A judge yesterday sealed the criminal grand
jury transcript leading to its murder indictment
against a Pacica man accused of fatally beating
and stabbing an acquaintance more than 50
times at his fathers home before trying to clean
up the bloody scene.
The defense request to keep the grand jurys
transcript from the public and the judges agree-
ment to do so came at the same hearing Marc
Anthony Furlan, 24, pleaded not guilty to mur-
der by use of a deadly or dangerous weapon. A
jury trial was also scheduled for Nov. 12.
In March, the grand jury indicted Furlan for
the Oct. 17, 2012 death of 24-year-old Keith
Coffey. Furlan and Coffey were acquaintances
and reportedly argued before Coffeys death.
Prosecutors say Furlan
killed Coffey in his fathers
Dell Road house and
dragged the body outside
before trying to clean the
scene. Two tenants ed the
scene and contacted police
who found Coffey in front
of the home just after 5 a.m.
Furlan was reportedly try-
ing to dispose of the body
when police arrived and
had left a wide swath of blood from the house to
outside. His father was not home at the time of
the incident.
Coffeys death was the rst murder in Pacica
since 2000.
Furlan remains in custody without bail.

The countys health system and local
response teams will hold a simulated large-
scale delivery of medicine and medical sup-
plies to residents as part of an emergency pre-
paredness drill next week.
Volunteers and agencies throughout the
county will participate to assess their readi-
ness for timely response and aid in the event
of a major health emergency like pandemic
inuenza, a food or water-borne illness or the
release of a bio-agent.
The Silver Dragon VII Emergency Drill
includes Community Emergency Response
Teams distributing education information in
reusable shopping bags to simulate medicine
deliveries following an emergency.
Last years exercise tested how long it took
to visit 15,000 homes and the group will try
improving the time this year. To test its
mobile kitchen, San Mateo Medical Centers
food service staff will prepare food for the
volunteers.
The drill will also test how quickly the
county receives the Center for Disease
Control and Preventions stockpile of medi-
cine and supplies. Once local and federal
authorities agree the stockpile is needed,
medicine can be delivered to any state in the
United States within 12 hours. In the mean-
time, the county will distribute medicine and
supplies from its own pharmaceutical stock-
pile.
The drill is from 9 a.m. to noon Thursday,
April 18.

WASHINGTON The nancially belea-
guered Postal Service backpedaled on its plan
to end Saturday mail delivery, conceding
Wednesday that its gamble to compel congres-
sional approval had failed.
With limited options for saving money, the
governing board said the agency should reopen
negotiations with unions to lower labor costs
and consider raising mail prices.
Yet the board also said its not possible for the
Postal Service to meet its goals for reduced
spending without altering the delivery schedule.
Delaying responsible changes, the board said,
only makes it more likely that the Postal
Service may become a burden to taxpayers.
Congressional reaction was mixed, mirroring
differences that have stalled a needed postal
overhaul for some time. Some lawmakers had
urged the agency to forge ahead with its plan,
while others had said it lacked the legal author-
ity to do so. The Postal Service said in February
that it planned to switch to ve-day-a-week
deliveries beginning in August for everything
except packages as a way to hold down losses.
That announcement was risky. The agency
was asking Congress to drop from spending
legislation the longtime ban on ve-day-only
delivery.
Congress did not do that when it passed a
spending measure last month.
By including restrictive language ...
Congress has prohibited implementation of a
new national delivery schedule for mail and
package, according to the board. Disappointed
but not wanting to disregard the law, the board
directed the Postal Service to delay putting in
place the new delivery schedule until Congress
passes legislation that gives the agency the
authority to implement a nancially appropriate
and responsible delivery schedule.
The board made the decision in a closed
meeting Tuesday.
This is good news for rural communities,
businesses, seniors, veterans and others who
depend on consistent and timely delivery of the
mail, said Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt.
But GOP Rep. Darrell Issa of California,
chairman of the House Oversight and
Government Reform Committee, bemoaned the
decision to back away from a delivery sched-
ule that polling indicates the American people
understand and support. Postal ofcials said
that to restore the service to long-term nancial
stability, the agency must have the exibility to
reduce costs and come up with new revenues.
It is not possible for the Postal Service to
meet signicant cost reduction goals without
changing its delivery schedule any rational
analysis of our current nancial condition and
business options leads to this conclusion, the
board statement said.

SAN FRANCISCO A bill aimed at pres-
suring the Boy Scouts of America to lift its
ban on gay members by making the organiza-
tion ineligible for nonprot tax breaks cleared
its rst vote on Wednesday in the California
Legislature.
The Senate Governance and Finance
Committee voted 5 to 2 to move the rst-of-
its-kind bill to the Senate Appropriations
Committee for review.
The Youth Equality Act, sponsored by Sen.
Ricardo Lara, D-Long
Beach, would deny tax-
exempt status to youth
groups that discriminate
on the basis of gender
identity, race, sexual ori-
entation, nationality, reli-
gion or religious aflia-
tion.
That means those
groups would have to pay
corporate taxes on donations, membership
dues, camp fees and other sources of income,
as well as sales taxes on food, beverages and
homemade items sold at fundraisers.
Former Boy Scouts of America president
Rick Cronk appeared before the committee on
Wednesday, telling members that Scouting
has had a positive impact on the state and that
being taxed on fundraising sales would hurt
local troops.
The proposal was written with the Boy
Scouts and its exclusion of gay members and
troop leaders in mind, but its language also
would require other youth groups to revisit
membership policies for transgender and
atheist members.
If the Appropriations Committee passes the
bill, it would require two-thirds approval from
the full Senate before it could be sent to the
California Assembly for consideration.
Boy Scouts of America spokesman Deron
Smith declined to comment on Wednesdays
vote. Conservative legal aid groups have said
they would sue if the bill gets enacted into law
because it penalizes groups based on their
beliefs.
The BSA is reviewing its membership poli-
cies. Later this month, Scoutings executive
ofcers will present a resolution regarding the
policy to be considered in May by the voting
members of the National Council.

Comeback: Weiner says he
may run for New York City mayor
NEW YORK A bold comeback attempt or the height of
chutzpah?
In what could be the start of one of the
most intriguing second acts in American
politics, Anthony Weiner, the congress-
man who tweeted himself out of a job two
years ago with a photo of his bulging
underpants, is considering jumping into
the New York City mayors race.
The Brooklyn Democrat said in a New
York Times Magazine story posted online
Wednesday that he realizes he would be
an underdog, but he wants to ask people
to give me a second chance.
I do recognize, to some degree, its now or maybe never
for me, Weiner, 48, said in a long and highly personal pro-
file that he clearly hoped would be the start of his rehabilita-
tion.
But are voters ready to forgive? Will they at least stop gig-
gling long enough to hear what he has to say?
Political analysts say Weiner would face a steep climb to
get past his past, but his political skills, his rich reserve of
campaign money and the dynamics of a crowded Democratic
primary could make him a player, if not a clear winner, in the
contest this fall to succeed Michael Bloomberg as mayor of
the nations largest city.
Bin Laden raid member can be WikiLeaks witness
FORT MEADE, Md. A military judge cleared the way
Wednesday for a member of the team that raided Osama bin
Ladens compound to testify at the trial of an Army private
charged in a massive leak of U.S. secrets to the WikiLeaks
website.
Col. Denise Lind ruled for the prosecution during a court-
martial pretrial hearing for Pfc. Bradley Manning at Fort
Meade, near Baltimore.
Prosecutors say the witness, presumably a Navy SEAL,
collected digital evidence showing that the al-Qaida leader
requested and received from an associate some of the docu-
ments Manning has acknowledged sending to WikiLeaks.
Defense attorneys had argued that proof of receipt wasnt
relevant to whether Manning aided the enemy, the most seri-
ous charge he faces, punishable by life imprisonment.

WASHINGTON Conservative
senators from both parties announced
their support for expanding background
checks for gun buyers Wednesday, giv-
ing a burst of momentum to advocates
of stronger restrictions. But big ques-
tions remain about whether President
Barack Obama can push significant gun
controls through Congress.
The compromise between Sens. Joe
Manchin, D-W.Va., and Patrick
Toomey, R-Pa., boosted the chances
that the Senate will agree to broaden
required background checks, a step gun
control groups laud as an effective way
to keep weapons from criminals and the
mentally ill. The senators are among
the most conservative members of their
parties, both have received A ratings
from the National Rifle Association,
and their endorsements could make it
easier for hesitant colleagues to back
the effort.
Gun control advocates still face
opposition from many Republican sen-
ators and resistance from moderate
Democrats, including several facing re-
election next year in GOP-leaning
states. In the Republican-run House,
leaders have shown little enthusiasm
for Obamas ideas, making that cham-
ber an even higher hurdle.
Under the agreement the two senators
announced at the Capitol, background
checks would be expanded to all for-
profit transactions including sales at
gun shows and online, with records
kept by licensed gun-dealers who
would handle the paperwork. Exempted
would be noncommercial transactions
such as between relatives. Currently,
the system applies only to sales by the
countrys 55,000 federally licensed
firearms dealers.
The agreement also contains provi-
sions expanding firearms rights, and
that concerns gun control supporters.
Some restrictions on transporting guns
across state lines would be eased, sell-
ers would be shielded from lawsuits if
the buyer passed a check but later used
a firearm in a crime and gun dealers
could conduct business in states where
they dont live.

BEIRUT Tensions emerged Wednesday
in a newly announced alliance between al-
Qaidas franchise in Iraq and the most power-
ful Syrian rebel faction, which said it was not
consulted before the Iraqi group announced
their merger and only heard about it through
the media.
Al-Qaida in Iraq said Tuesday that it had
joined forces with Jabhat al-Nusra or the
Nusra Front the most effective force
among the mosaic of rebel brigades ghting to
topple President Bashar Assad in Syrias civil
war. It said they had formed a new alliance
called the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant.
The Syrian government seized upon the
purported merger to back its assertion that it is
not facing a true popular movement for
change but rather a foreign-backed terrorist
plot. The state news agency said Wednesday
that the union proves that this opposition was
never anything other than a tool used by the
West and by terrorists to destroy the Syrian
people.
Talk of an alliance between Jabhat al-Nusra
and al-Qaida in Iraq has raised fears in
Baghdad, where intelligence officials said
increased cooperation was already evident in a
number of deadly attacks.
And in Syria, a stronger Jabhat al-Nusra
would only further complicate the battleeld
where Western powers have been covertly try-
ing to funnel weapons, training and aid toward
more secular rebel groups and army defectors.
Washington has designated Jabhat al-Nusra
a terrorist organization over its links with al-
Qaida, and the Syrian groups now public ties
with the terrorist network are unlikely to
prompt a shift in international support for the
broader Syrian opposition.
Earlier this year, the U.S. announced a $60
million non-lethal assistance package for
Syria that includes meals and medical sup-
plies for the armed opposition. It was greeted
unenthusiastically by some rebel leaders, who
said it does far too little.
Washingtons next step is expected to be a
broader package of non-lethal assistance,
expanding from food and medical supplies to
body armor and night-vision goggles.
However, President Barack Obama has not
given nal approval on any new package and
an announcement is not imminent, a senior
administration ofcial said.
Secretary of State John Kerry, who met with
Syrian opposition leaders in London on
Wednesday, hinted at the new non-lethal aid
package this week, saying the administration
had been holding intense talks on how to
boost assistance to the rebels.
The U.S. opposes directly arming Syrian
opposition ghters, in part out of fear that the
weapons could fall into the hands of Islamic
extremists such as Jabhat al-Nusra.

PYONGYANG, North Korea As the
world braced for a provocative missile launch
by North Korea, with newscasts worldwide
playing up tensions on the Korean Peninsula,
the center of the storm was strangely calm.
The focus in Pyongyang on Wednesday
was less on preparing for war and more on
beautifying the capital ahead of the nations
biggest holiday: the April 15 birthday of the
nations founder, Kim Il Sung. Soldiers put
down their rifles to blanket the barren ground
with sod and students picked up shovels to
help plant trees.
But the impoverished, tightly controlled
nation that has historically used major holi-
days to draw the worlds attention by showing
off its military power could well mark the
occasion by testing a missile designed to strike
U.S. military installations in Japan and Guam.
South Koreas foreign minister said the
prospect of a medium-range missile launch is
considerably high.
North Korean ofcials have not announced
plans to launch a missile in deance of U.N.
Security Council resolutions barring
Pyongyang from nuclear and missile activity.
But they have told foreign diplomats in
Pyongyang that they will not be able to guar-
antee their safety starting Wednesday and
urged tourists in South Korea to take cover,
warning that a nuclear war is imminent. Most
diplomats and foreign residents in both capi-
tals appeared to be staying put.
The European Union said there was no need
for member states to evacuate or relocate their
diplomatic missions, but it called on North
Korea to refrain from further provocative dec-
larations or action.

criminal blacklist by mistake
HELSINKI Vladimir Putin, banned in
Finland?
Finnish police say the Russian presidents
name was mistakenly
placed on a secret crimi-
nal register that could
theoretically have gotten
him arrested at the bor-
der.
TV station MTV3
reported Wednesday that
Putin was placed there
for his contact with
Russian motorcycle gang
Night Wolves, though he wasnt suspected
of a crime in Finland. But National Police
Board spokesman Robin Lardot told the AP
the listing was a mistake and that Putins
name was removed from the list.
The National Police Board has investi-
gated the case and indeed found that such a
mistaken entry was in the register, Lardot
told the Associated Press. We have ordered
it to be removed and are investigating the
case very thoroughly. We dont know how it
got there. He declined further comment.
Putins inclusion would be a major source
of embarrassment in bilateral relations.
Under the radar, Cuba
and U.S. often work together
HAVANA Cuba and the United States
may be longtime enemies with a bucket
overflowing with grievances, but the fast
return of a Florida couple who fled U.S.
authorities with their two kidnapped chil-
dren in tow shows the Cold War enemies are
capable of remarkable cooperation on many
issues.
Indeed, diplomats and observers on both
sides of the Florida Straits say American and
Cuban law enforcement officers, scientists,
disaster relief workers, Coast Guard officials
and other experts work together on a daily
basis, and invariably express professional
admiration for each other.
I dont think the story has been told, but
there is a real warmth in just the sort of day-
to-day relations between U.S. and Cuban
government officials, said Dan Whittle,

tor for the Environmental Defense Fund.

Letters to the editor
Columbus (Ga.) Ledger-Enquirer
A
ny modern history that does not
include Margaret Hilda Roberts
Thatcher among the most important
world leaders of the 20th century instantly
sacrices any claim to credibility.
Former British Prime Minister Thatcher,
who died Monday at 87, all but remade the
United Kingdom of the 1980s in her own
ladylike yet unyielding image, much as her
friend and ally Ronald Reagan remade the
United States in his.
In many ways, Reagan and Thatcher were
and are the bookends of late 20th century
Western conservatism. Although Thatcher
lacked Reagans seemingly effortless amia-
bility, she was every bit his match in resolve.
The Iron Lady label came courtesy of
Soviet journalists, and would soon become a
term of admiration and, to some, endearment.
Like Reagan, she came to power at a time
when Britain was suffering from crises of
both economics and national condence, and
saw bloated government as the heart of the
problem.
Her administrations privatizing of state-
run industries would hardly seem radical to
most Americans: Among the government-
operated institutions at the time were British
Airways, Rolls-Royce, the coal and steel
industries, a telecom company, gas, water
and electrical utilities.
Supporters credited her with an economic
revival; critics accused her of insensitivity to
the wretchedly poor and of further widening
Englands historically yawning social and
economic chasms. But her convictions were
unshakable.
Thatcher is said, by foes and admirers
alike, to have had an absolute condence in
her own rightness. It was a trait that some-
times worked to her and her countrys advan-
tage, as when she astutely saw in Soviet
leader Mikhail Gorbachev a possible end to
the Cold War; and sometimes to her detri-
ment, as when she imposed a hugely unpopu-
lar tax in 1989 and was eventually ousted by
her own party.
Thatcher was described as a very divisive
gure by none other than Bernard Ingham,
her own loyal press secretary. He also
described her as a patriot with a great love
for this country.
A woman for history
Editor,
As Silicon Valley leader Sheryl Sandberg
spearheads efforts to integrate women into
the highest ranks of American power, its
interesting to look at the life of Britains
first female prime minister, Margaret
Thatcher. She came from humble origins
and won a scholarship to Oxford, but could
not join its debating society because she
was a woman. She became the leader of the
Tories but was excluded from the Carlton
Club, where party leaders strategized,
because she was a woman. After she
became prime minister, her alma mater
broke with tradition and declined to confer
her an honorary doctorate, because she was
a woman.
Ironically, the British were likely able to
elect a woman prime minister because of
the most anachronistic traditions of them all
the Monarchy. Would there ever have
been a Prime Minister Margaret if there had
not first been a Queen Elizabeth II? Here in
America, for talented women to be accept-
ed in the corridors of power, we need more
role models at the top.

against assault. What nonsense! The ugly
truth is that those elected officials simply
cannot afford to let their true nature be
exposed through a vote on this issue. They
want it both ways have the cake and eat
it, too. If they vote in favor of stricter gun
control, they will lose NRAs blood money
and other support. If they vote against, they
can forget about being re-elected except
for districts with very gullible, low-info
constituents.
So, in their own short-sighted and selfish
interest, they try their darndest to block any
kind of voting on gun issues. How heart-
less, calculating, cruel and selfish can you
be, especially in the aftermath of recent
massacres? Then again, what could we
expect from so-called lawmakers who have
resisted every single effort on the part of
our duly elected President Obama to fix
problems and get the economy going again
after eight disastrous years under George
W. Bush?
The only thing worse would be voters
who keep getting such unethical incompe-
tents into office, again and again, despite
their destructive and unpatriotic actions.

Uplands middle school
Editor,
In regards to the article Will Belmont
welcome private school? in the April 10
edition of the Daily Journal, it was quite a
surprise to pick up the Daily Journal this
Wednesday morning and see that
Councilwoman Coralin Feierbach may have
changed her mind about supporting Crystal
Springs Uplands School in its bid to build a
middle school in Belmont.
As a parent of a student at Crystal
Springs, I cannot say enough great things
about the school. It has strong academics
and teachers, excellent administration and a
diverse student body (diverse in many
respects, including range of interests and
ethnicity). Studies have shown it is one of
the very best in class nationally amongst
private schools in our nation. Any city
would be lucky to have Crystal Springs
Uplands amongst their community.
I was personally hoping the school would
find a spot in the city our family lives in,
San Mateo, as I believe the school will be a
tremendous asset to any community to
which it locates. I personally think Crystal
Springs Uplands should think very hard
about working with the city of Belmont
again, in light of the last try which was so
very disappointing. I think other cities on
the Peninsula should strongly consider a
way to bring this wonderful school into
their community.

Chuck McDougalds
Party of opportunity
Editor,
When I first read Chuck McDougalds
guest perspective, Party of Opportunity in
the April 6 edition of the Daily Journal, I
thought his column was an April Fools
joke. When I double checked the date, I
saw I was wrong. He certainly did roll out
every hyperbole and cliche about the
Democratic party. I could write a similar
guest perspective about how Republicans
only care about big business and the
wealthy. It makes me wonder if Chuck has
ever actually met a Democrat.

Postal (ad)dress
O
bviously, Saturday mail service is
not yet out of fashion. But what
about dressing like those who deliv-
er it?
The U.S. Postal Service announced
Wednesday it would not end Saturday serv-
ice as previously planned because of prohibi-
tive language in a congressional funding bill.
In other words, the
idea received no
stamp of approval
which proves not
snow nor rain nor
heat nor gloom of
night can stop the
mail. Apparently,
neither can a lack
of money and cus-
tomer base.
The recommen-
dation to put the
kibosh on six-day-
a-week service
shouldnt have surprised anyone. With the
agency hemorrhaging money and customers
more often relying on the Internet and alter-
native delivery services, there werent many
other options to save or raise billions of dol-
lars annually. Not that the agency didnt try.
It announced plans to close a number of post
ofces, an idea that rallied some communi-
ties and fell on deaf ears in others.
But the most intriguing idea is the apparel
line. Back in February about the same
time the pro-Saturday mail movement picked
up steam the U.S. Postal Service
announced plans for a line of all-weather
apparel and accessories.
The all-weather apparel makes sense con-
sidering the source although chances are slim
the service can sell enough blue parkas and
long shorts to reach nancial solvency. But
accessories? Do they mean mail bags and
handy waist-clipped bottles of mace? Pads of
those little notes they leave when a package
or certied letter needs a signature?
Actually, the line, which is still expected to
launch in 2014, reportedly also includes
headwear (because who hasnt wanted a
jaunty mailmans hat?) and footwear (if its
good enough for trudging around the neigh-
borhood, just imagine the kind of support it
can offer the casual wearer!).
Adding to the skepticism of the ideas like-
lihood of success, the CEO of the clothing
company tapped to produce these goods said
at the launch that this will be an image-con-
scious, rst-class, high-end line that repre-
sents the legacy and romanticism of the
postal service. Legacy, sure. Romanticism?
Somebody call Merchant and Ivory!
The closest thing the postal service gets to
romanticism is the heart on its ever-more-
expensive forever stamp and the valentines
cluttering the mailbox mid-February.
The line will initially only be offered for
men giving new punch to puns about
male men but will eventually move into
the female arena, too. Of course. Because
even more than men wanting to look like a
postal worker are the majority of women.
Despite the gentle mocking, the postal
service has to be given some kudos for try-
ing. Rather than simply whine about the fact
it is few peoples rst choice for reasonably
priced and timely delivery, it is grasping at
anything to stay aoat and perhaps inadver-
tently giving current workers a little cache
for sporting their existing or dare we say
vintage uniforms before Jane and John
Public get the chance.
The unknown question is how this public
will buy and receive these wonder garments.
The designs will reportedly be on display at
a showroom in New York City but, with fash-
ion this cutting edge, chances are people
everywhere will be clamoring for the chance.
Sure customers can order online but if the
Postal Service is smart it will require them to
use only that agency for delivery. Doing so
can be considered a win-win for the mail
service or perhaps a package deal.

Big movers
By Steve Rothwell
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK Technology stocks
roared back Wednesday, driving the
Standard & Poors 500 and Dow Jones
industrial average to record highs.
The industry has lagged the broader
market this year, but surged after network
communications company Adtran reported
earnings that were double what Wall Street
analysts expected. That boosted optimism
that businesses will increase spending on
technology equipment.
Chipmakers Micron and Intel jumped,
as did other network equipment makers
like Cisco and JDS Uniphase. Stocks were
also up on an optimistic reading of the
Federal Reserves latest minutes.
Technology stocks rose 1.8 percent, the
most of the 10 industry groups in the S&P.
Thats a big change from techs weak per-
formance this year. The group is up just 4.7
percent, trailing the S&Ps gain of 11.3
percent.
Tech has performed so poorly, its over-
sold and warrants some interest here, said
Scott Wren, a senior equity strategist at
Wells Fargo Advisors. If the economy
continues to improve there is going to be
some capital spending.
The stock market has reversed course
this week, rising three straight days. Last
week, investors condence fell because of
an unexpectedly poor report on the U.S.
job market and other signs that the econo-
my slowed in March.
The Dow Jones industrial average
jumped 128.78 points Wednesday, or 0.9
percent, to 14,802.24. It was the biggest
one-day rise in a month. The Dow is up 13
percent in 2013.
The Nasdaq composite, which is heavi-
ly weighted with technology stocks, had
the biggest percentage gain of the three
main indexes Wednesday, rising 59.39
points, or 1.8 percent, to 3,297.25. The
S&P rose 19.12 points, or 1.2 percent, to
1,587.73.
Investors viewed positively the minutes
from the Federal Reserves latest meeting,
which were released before the market
opened. The minutes revealed that policy
makers are becoming more condent that
the U.S. economy can grow without stim-
ulus from the Fed, said Brian Gendreau, a
market strategist at Cetera Financial
Group.
The Fed released the minutes at 9 a.m.
Eastern, ve hours ahead of schedule, after
the document was inadvertently distrib-
uted to congressional staff and trade group
ofcials. The market rose steadily in the
morning and stayed high through the after-
noon.
A majority of the Feds 12 policymakers
want to continue the stimulus. Still, many
members indicated they want to slow and
eventually end the program before the end
of the year, as long as the job market and
economy show sustained improvement.
The Fed didnt disclose how many of its
policymakers held those views.
That suggests that a number of Fed of-
cials think the economy may be doing well
enough to stand on its own. The Fed has
been buying $85 billion worth of bonds
each month to keep interest rates extreme-
ly low, encourage borrowing and spending
and drive money into riskier assets like
stocks.
The idea that the Fed thinks that we are
closer to the restoration of normality might
be positive for the market, said Gendreau.
While the Dow and S&P have been set-
ting record highs frequently over the past
month, the Nasdaq remains 35 percent
below its record of 5,048 set March 10,
2000. The index surged the during the
technology bubble of the late 1990s. The
Nasdaq is at its highest level in more than
12 years.
Among stocks making big moves,
Facebook rose 98 cents, or 3.7 percent, to
$27.57 after General Motors said it would
start running ads on the social network
site. Adtran rose $2.75, or 14 percent, to
$22.46, and JDS Uniphase rose 64 cents,
or 4.8 percent, to $13.98.
Hospital stocks fell heavily after
Deutsche Bank lowered its recommenda-
tion on the companies because their prices
have risen so much that they no longer
offer good value. Private hospitals have
surged over the past year in anticipation
that health care spending will increase
after President Barack Obamas health
care plan starts.
Gains in technology pull stocks higher
By Peter Svensson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK Microsofts Windows 8
software appears to be driving buyers away
from PCs and toward smartphones and
tablets, research firm IDC said Wednesday.
Thats leading to the fastest drop in PC sales
the firm has ever seen.
Global shipments of PCs fell 14 percent in
the first three months this year, IDC said.
Thats the sharpest plunge since the firm
started tracking the industry in 1994.
The report comes after a year of bad news
for the PC. Consumers, especially in
wealthy countries like the U.S., are steering
their dollars toward tablets and smartphones
rather than upgrading their home PCs. Its
the biggest challenge to the personal com-
puter since the IBM PC was released in
1981.
In an attempt to keep the PC relevant,
Microsoft released a radical new version of
Windows on Oct. 26. Windows 8 has a com-
pletely new look and forces users to learn
new ways to control their machines.
Unfortunately, it seems clear that the
Windows 8 launch not only didnt provide a
positive boost to the PC market, but appears
to have slowed the market, IDC Vice
President Bob ODonnell said.
The newest version of Windows is
designed to work well with touch-sensitive
screens, but the displays add to the cost of a
PC. Together, the changes and higher prices
have made PCs a less attractive alternative
to dedicated tablets and other competitive
devices, ODonnell said.
Representatives of Microsoft Corp. were
not immediately available for comment.
In its tally, IDC excludes tablets, even if
they run PC-style software. It also excludes
any device that has a detachable keyboard.
With the release of Windows 8, PC makers
have been reviving their experiments with
tablet-laptop hybrids, some of which have
detachable keyboards. Consumers are likely
to have shifted some of their buying away
from traditional laptops and toward these
new devices, which means that the total
sales decline of Windows-based devices
may not be quite as drastic as IDCs num-
bers suggest.
Another research firm, Gartner Inc.,
counts any devices running PC-style soft-
ware, including some tablets, as PCs. It
reported an 11 percent decline in PC ship-
ments in the quarter. That, too, is the
sharpest decline its seen since it started
tracking the market in 2001.
Research firm: PC sales plunge as Windows 8 flops
Broadcasters display
mobile TV dongles at NAB Show
LAS VEGAS The key weapon in TV broadcasters
ght with Internet video upstart Aereo is something inele-
gantly known as a dongle.
The miniature TV antenna picks up free, mobile broadcast
signals. It attaches to iPhone and iPad power ports and
extends about 7 inches, allowing users to view live local TV
channels at not-quite-high-denition quality.
The device scans the airwaves for signals with the help of
an app. The antenna doesnt sap a users data plan or rely on
Wi-Fi signals, but it does need to be recharged.
If youre at a ball game or a Starbucks and everyones try-
ing to access the news, youre not going to get (video stop-
pages), says Karen McCall, a marketing representative with
Dyle Mobile TV, the venture backing the devices.
The dongles are on display at the annual gathering of
broadcasters, the NAB Show, taking place this week at the
Las Vegas Convention Center. Dyle says it plans to release
units for Android devices soon.
Dyle is actually a coalition of 12 major broadcasters
including Fox and NBC. Those networks, along with ABC
and CBS, are waging a legal ght against Aereo, a service
that pulls down broadcast station signals with thousands of
tiny antennas and sends the signal to mobile devices or com-
puters over the Internet.
Unemployment rates for West mostly down
Unemployment rates fell in more than 80 percent of large
U.S. cities in February from January, suggesting that strong
hiring that month beneted the vast majority of the country.
The Labor Department says rates fell in 311 of the nations
372 largest metro areas. They rose in 45 and were unchanged
in 16.
Nationwide, employers added 268,000 jobs in February,
the most in a year. That pushed down the unemployment rate
to 7.7 percent from 7.9 percent. But hiring slowed sharply
last month, when employers added only 88,000 jobs.

Sacred Heart Preps Alex Castro, left, absorbs a check from Menlo-Athertons Duncan McGinnis during the Bears 12-10 win over the Gators
in a SCVAL De Anza Division showdown. M-A remains undefeated in league play, while the Gators fall two games behind.
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Despite nishing the rst half of the Santa
Clara Valley Athletic League De Anza
Division lacrosse schedule with an unbeaten
mark, Menlo-Atherton boys lacrosse coach
Steve Kryger was concerned with his teams
play, having dropped three straight non-league
decisions.
Wednesday marked the start of the second
half of the De Anza Division season and there
was no easing into it by the Bears: on the
schedule? Rival Sacred Heart Prep. The Gators
battled to a two-goal lead in the rst two quar-
ters and led by a goal at halftime.
M-A scored four goals in the third period,
however, to take a 10-8 lead on its way to a 12-
10 decision.
Playing Prep rst game back (to start the
second half) is the best thing that could have
happened to us, said M-A coach Steven
Kryger. This was exactly what we needed. If
you cant get up for this game, you cant get up
for any game.
There are always bragging rights going on in
Atherton what with Sacred Heart Prep, Menlo
School and M-A all sharing the town. So it was
not lost on the Bears that they are now 3-0
against SHP and Menlo in lacrosse.
I think beating Prep (is better than being
undefeated in league), said M-As Nick
Schlein, who scored four goals in the victory
and whose brother goes to SHP.
Its always fun.
Kryger was having a much better time as he
saw his offense nally get on track. Despite
getting four goals from Schlein as well as a
goal and three assists from Duncan McGinnis,
Kryger was pleased to see the offensive output
come from several different sources.
We dont really dictate who goes where (in
the offense). We feel condent in all our guys,
said Kryger, whose team had eight different
scorers. Because our offense is scripted so it
doesnt focus on one player, it makes it a lot
harder for defenses.
To have eight guys score on 12 goals?
Thats unheard of.
While M-A seems to have shaken its dol-
drums, SHP coach Joe Thompson is wonder-
ing when his players will kick theirs.
What were struggling with is the execu-
tion. In the rst half, they [M-A] didnt execute
much better. But in the second half, they exe-
cuted much better and we still werent execut-
ing. Were not going to win this thing without
execution, Thompson said. My biggest task
right now, we need to keep getting better. We
have to start turning the corner.
It appeared the Gators were poised to do just
that in the rst half. SHP scored on its rst two
shots of the game the second being a Sean
Mayle 60-yard dash from his own defensive
M-A records big win

SAN FRANCISCO For most of his out-
ing, Barry Zito had a large lead that would
make most pitchers plenty comfortable.
Zito never allows himself to think that way.
Not with all the ups and downs of his Giants
tenure.
I think the mindset that its easier because
you have a lead will tie the game up quickly,
he said.
Buster Posey drove in three runs while
NBA star Kevin Durant cheered him from the
stands, Zito pitched another gem and con-
tributed with his bat, and the San Francisco
Giants beat the Colorado Rockies 10-0 on
Wednesday to complete a three-game sweep.
Staked to a quick lead, Zito (2-0) won his
11th straight decision,
including last years post-
season. San Francisco
earned its 16th consecutive
victory in games he has
started, the longest such
run by a Giants pitcher
since 16 in a row by Carl
Hubbell for New York in
1936, STATS said.
Its hard to speak about
a stretch or a run or the past, really, Zito said.
Today the boys came out swinging. They
were starting to click on all cylinders offen-
sively, which was great because a lot of peo-
ple underestimate our offense. And days like
today really show what we can offer.
Zito has thrown 14 scoreless innings so far,
the deepest the lefty has gone without giving
up a run to start a season in his 14-year career.
Posey hit an RBI triple in the rst, a run-
scoring double in the second and an RBI sin-
gle in the fth. He scored twice.
Durant and Oklahoma City Thunder team-
mate Nick Collison attended the game on the
teams off day ahead of Thursdays matchup
at Golden State. Durant was eager to see the
NL MVP, saying: My man, Buster. I just like
his intensity.
Its humbling, Posey said. You dont
even know if they know who you are to begin
with.

Giants complete sweep of Rockies

If its been said once, its been said a thou-
sand times: if you have any real aspiration to
be a champion, you must rst beat the cham-
pion.
So when the Carlmont High School baseball
team took the eld Wednesday, the Scots knew
a big opportunity was in front of them with the
reigning Peninsula Athletic League Bay
Division champion Burlingame Panthers in
the visitors dugout.
And it was an opportunity the Scots seized.
Behind a big, four-run second inning and the
gutsy pitching of Greg Hubbell, Carlmont
landed the divisions rst major blow of year,
handing the Panthers their second league loss
with a 5-4 decision.
The Scots victory means that, at 5-0, they
now have a two-game lead on the defending
champions.
It was a game low-lighted by Burlingames
ability to run themselves out of innings
three times in the latter part of the game
Burlingame had the potential tying run at third
and could not get the run home.
Too many mistakes, said Burlingame
manager Shawn Scott when asked about the
difference in the ball game. Too many errors.
Base running errors. My mistake holding up
the runner (in the second). It would have given
us the fth run and wed still be playing base-
ball right now. And just mental breakdowns
offensively and defensively today.
Were humble, said Carlmont manager
Rich Vallero. We know that Burlingame is a
great program and we know that we cant give

The two days spent

AUSTIN, Texas Disgraced cyclist Lance
Armstrong has sold his Austin estate to an oil-
and-gas rights agent.
The Austin American-
S t a t e s m a n
(ht t p: / / bi t . l y/ 14d3Ri c)
reports a deed of trust led
with Travis County last
week showed Al Koehler
obtained a $3.1 million
loan to buy the property,
which had been
Armstrongs home since
2004.
Although county tax rolls listed the 1.7-acre
propertys value at $3.9 million, local real
estate agents say the house was listed at $10
million. However, in an email to the
American-Statesman, Koehler says he paid
nothing close to the listed value.
Koehler is a founder of Royalty
Clearinghouse, which buys oil and gas royal-
ties and mineral rights on behalf of clients.
Armstrong spokesman Mark Higgins con-
rmed the sale and says Armstrong plans to
remain an Austin resident.
Armstong has admitted to using perform-
ance-enhancing drugs. He was stripped of his
seven Tour de France titles in August and is
banned for life from sports.

Hillsdale routs Capuchino
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
When Hillsdale wins, it wins big.
For the fth time this season the Knights
scored in double-digits, as they triumphed at
home over Capuchino yesterday, 10-3.
Michael Camel and Conner Wallace fueled
the Hillsdale offense with two hits apiece.
Both are key contributions, as the tandem has
gotten off to a slow start this season. They are
the only two players of Hillsdales starting
nine that entered into play yesterday hitting
below .300 a glaring discrepancy for an
offense hitting .345 as a team.
Yet Hillsdale manager Neal Donohoe has
kept anchoring his lineup with Camel and
Wallace in the No. 5 and No. 6 spots in the
batting order. And the move paid off yester-
day. The Knights scored three in the rst
inning and six more in the fourth, with both
rallies fueled by Camel and Wallace.
[Camel has] had a lot of great swings that
really havent shown up in the stats yet,
Donohoe said. Wallace was one of our best
hitters last year. He got off to a little slow
start this year, but hes seeming to get back to
himself lately. Hes been swinging the bat well
lately.
Knights go large
Hillsdale (3-2 in PAL Bay, 10-7 overall) got
on the board in the rst inning against Cap
starter Eddie Cecchi, with some help from the
Mustangs defense. With two on and two out,
Camel hit a towering y ball to deep left. Cap
right elder Davaughn Foster-Lorenzini drift-
ed back, but the ball kept carrying until it land-
ed on the warning track just out of his reach.
The resulting triple drove home two to get
Hillsdale on the board.
Denitely (thats a ball that) should be
caught, Capuchino manager Matt Wilson
said. He drifted to the ball. We teach guys to
run to the spot, then come in on baseballs. He
drifted to the spot and let the ball play him.
For Camel, it was the rst triple of his var-
sity career. But Hillsdale did not stop there, as
Wallace followed with a line-drive single to
right to plate Camel, giving the Knights a 3-0
lead.
Cecchi settled in through the next two
innings, setting down seven of the next eight
batters he faced. The senior right-hander went
3 1/3 innings to take the loss.
Hillsdale starter Brandon Butcher, on the
other hand, worked in and out of trouble
through the rst three innings. However, the
junior right-hander escaped three Capuchino
rallies unscathed. The Mustangs advanced
four base runners into scoring position in the
rst three innings, but could not push a run
across. Butcher ultimately went four shutout
innings to earn the win, upping his record to 3-
0. He currently boasts a miniscule 0.29 ERA
through 21 innings pitched.
[Butcher] even said he didnt feel like he
had his best stuff today, Donohoe said. And
thats when you pitch, when you actually go
out there and you battle. You gut up. And
thats when were really proud of kids. They
go out there and they battle when they dont
feel a hundred percent. That was huge.
In the fourth, Hillsdale broke it open.
Beginning with a leadoff single by Wallace,
the Knights sent 10 batters to the plate. Luis
Barrantes later scalded a two-run double to
knock Cecchi out of the game. With Cap sen-
ior Trevor Fisher on in relief, Kellen Tsuruoka
and Chandler Viera walked before Armando
Fajardo lined an RBI single to right. Tsuruoka
then scored on a wild pitch, before Camel pro-
duced a two-out, two-run single to right to
score Viera and Fajardo.
The coach was telling us to nd our pitch
and just drive it, and thats exactly what we
did, Camel said. We all found our pitch to
hit to drive the ball somewhere hard and drive
runs in.
Capuchino surrendered two walks, two wild
pitches, and two passed balls in the inning. In
the fth, Hillsdale scratched out another run
on a bases-loaded walk to Fajardo. The senior
shortstop paces the Knights with 19 RBIs.
In the seventh, Capuchino (1-4, 7-9) got on
the board on an RBI double by Kyle Patterson
to score JeanPaul Aberouette. Pinch-hitter
Antieny Orcholsk then singled home Tony
Pellegreni, with Patterson also scoring on the
play due to an outeld error. The Mustangs
sent four pitch hitters to the plate in the inning.
It was good for the guys that usually are on
the bench to come in and get a chance to do
something, Wilson said. They showed me
they want to play. And who knows? Maybe I
will have to shufe the lineup if these guys
have the hunger to come in and swing the bat
in big pressure situations.
Back from injury
Camels resurgence in recent days has come
after a long road back from injury. On April 3,
he accounted for the only run in Hillsdales 3-
1 loss to El Camino, with his rst home run of
the year. The day prior, in a 9-2 loss to Lowell,
he hit three y-ball outs to the warning track.
After going 2 for 4 with four RBIs yesterday,
Camel upped his batting average to .257, and
now ranks third on the team with 11 RBIs.
As a junior last season, Camel broke his
ankle on a freak injury. The day after a big win
over Carlmont in which he hit the rst
home run of his varsity career Camel was
taking some hacks in the batting cages at
Hillsdale.
During the swing that ended his season, he
caught a cleat on the turf, and broke his ankle
as he fell to the ground.

Oakland powers
past the Angels
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ANAHEIM Brandon Moss tied a career high with ve
RBIs, including his second homer in two games, and the
Oakland Athletics extended their winning streak to seven
games with an 11-5 victory over the Los Angeles Angels on
Wednesday night.
Moss nished with four hits. His other ve-RBI game was
on Sept. 29 against Seattle, when he hit a game-ending, three-
run homer in the 10th inning to give Oakland a 7-4 victory. It
came during a season-ending six-game winning streak that
propelled the As to their rst AL West title since 2006.
Tommy Milone (2-0) threw 106 pitches over ve innings,
allowing four runs, seven hits and three walks while striking
out ve.
Joe Blanton (0-2) was charged with six runs and 10 hits in
ve-plus innings and did not record a strikeout in his second
outing with his new club. The 32-year-old right-hander had
made 118 consecutive starts with at least one strikeout since
May 31, 2008, when he pitched six innings for the Athletics
without one in an 8-4 loss at Texas.
The As were the only major league team Blanton had never
faced. He made his rst 118 career starts with them between
2005 and 2008, winning a career-high 16 games in 2007.
Moss hit a two-run triple in the third, then extended
Oaklands lead to 5-2 in the fth with a two-out solo homer
to right-center. It was the fourth allowed by Blanton, who
gave up three in his season debut at Cincinnati after allowing
a combined 29 home runs last season with the Phillies and
Dodgers.
Moss, who had career highs last season with 21 homers
and 52 RBIs in just 84 games, got his fourth RBI on a bases-
loaded walk during a ve-run sixth. He capped his big night
with a broken-bat single in the seventh after Angels third
baseman Alberto Callaspo dropped a two-out popup by
Yoenis Cespedes, allowing Coco Crisp to advance from rst
to third.
The Angels cut Oaklands margin to 5-4 in the fth with a
two-run single by Howie Kendrick after Milone struck out
sluggers Josh Hamilton and Mark Trumbo.
The As grabbed a 4-1 lead with three runs in the third after
Eric Sogard led off with a single to right and continued to
second on Hamiltons error. John Jaso, who hit a go-ahead,
three-run homer as a pinch-hitter in Oaklands series-opening
9-5 win on Tuesday night, singled home Sogard with the go-
ahead run and Moss triple delivered two more.
The Angels got a run back in the bottom half when Albert
Pujols singled, Hamilton doubled him to third and Trumbo
followed with a run-scoring groundout.
Crisp opened the game with a single, stole second and
scored on Jed Lowries groundout. The Angels tied it in the
bottom half on Hamiltons sacrice y, which came after a
single by Callaspo and a double by Pujols. The three-time NL
MVP hit another double in the fth for his 1,000th extra-base
hit and nished the night 4 for 4.
This is only the second time in 22 years that the As have
won their rst ve road games. They also did it in 2008.
against Colorado. They also have beaten
the Rockies nine straight times at AT&T
Park.
Andres Torres hit a two-run single,
Joaquin Arias singled home a run in a
rare start and Marco Scutaro hit a sacri-
ce y as the Giants went ahead 7-0.
They chased Jeff Francis (1-1) in the
second inning for the shortest start of his
career.
Id miss a pitch and theyd whack it.
Id make a pitch and theyd whack it,
Francis said.
The Giants had a season-high 16 hits a
day after getting 14.
Zito had an RBI single in the fth. He
singled the next inning for his rst career
multihit game, prompting a standing
ovation from the sellout crowd of 41,606
and chants of Barry! Barry! He has a
four-start hitting streak dating to the
2012 postseason.
Hes going to have a shift soon, prob-
ably, Posey cracked.
Zito allowed seven hits in seven
innings, struck out four and walked one.
Javier Lopez and Chad Gaudin complet-
ed the seven-hitter.
Zito was part of his second shutout
already this season, and he hasnt lost
since Aug. 2 against the Mets.
You cant have more condence out
there than what Barry has right now,
Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. Its
fun to watch when a pitchers on and hit-
ting his spots. Its a thing of beauty. Hes
as tough a competitor as Ive ever been
around.
The Rockies arrived in San Francisco
riding a ve-game winning streak and
left with a three-game skid. Colorado
had homered in each of its rst eight
games before being shut out for the rst
time in 2013.
I was expecting to come in here and
win a series, rookie manager Walt
Weiss said. The Giants played well.
This one today got away from us early.
We look at it as three games of 162.
NOTES: Giants slugger Pablo
Sandoval had the day off to give his
body a break. Sandoval missed 13 games
late in spring training with an inamed
nerve in his right elbow. Were being
cautious with him, Bochy said. ...
Hunter Pence had his seven-game hitting
streak snapped for the Giants. ... Zito
improved to 41-3 when receiving four or
more runs of support in 56 starts since
joining the Giants. He is 8-2 with a 2.47
ERA in 21 career outings vs. Colorado
the third-lowest ERA among active
pitchers behind Cardinals RHP Chris
Carpenter (1.41) and Giants teammate
Madison Bumgarner (2.45). ... Francis
previous shortest start was three innings,
done ve times. ... Weiss rested 1B Todd
Helton for the day game after a night
game and with a lefty starter on the
mound. ... Poseys triple was the fourth
of his career. ... Colorado CF Dexter
Fowler, who has a hit in seven of his
teams rst eight games, had his rst day
off until a pinch-hit grounder in the
eighth. ... If the weather cooperates in
Chicago, RHP Ryan Vogelsong (0-1)
will start Thursday afternoon. Pack
your heavy jackets, the clubhouse dry-
erase board said.

NEW YORK Major League
Baseball has created a task force that
will study how to increase diversity in
the game, especially among black play-
ers.
Commissioner Bud Selig announced
the committee Wednesday.
In less than a week, baseball will cel-
ebrate the 66th anniversary of Jackie
Robinson breaking the color barrier. A
new movie titled 42 focuses on the
Hall of Famer.
The 18-member committee includes
representatives from club ownership,
the players union, minor league and
college baseball, the MLB scouting
bureau and other areas. Hall of Famer
Frank Robinson and former major
league manager Jerry Manuel are
among the members.
MLB says about 8.5 percent of players
on this years opening day rosters identi-
ed themselves as African-American or
black. Thats around half the number
from the mid-1970s through the mid-
1990s.
As a social institution, Major League
Baseball has an enormous social respon-
sibility to provide equal opportunities
for all people, both on and off the eld,
Selig said in a statement.
Tampa Bay Rays owner Stuart
Sternberg and Detroit Tigers president
Dave Dombrowski will help run the
committee. Southern University head
coach Roger Cador, Chicago White Sox
Executive Vice President Ken Williams,
MLB Senior Vice President of Baseball
Operations Kim Ng, union ofcial and
former big leaguer Tony Clark and
Arizona Diamondbacks president
Derrick Hall are among the other mem-
bers.
MLB runs the Reviving Baseball in
Inner Cities (RBI) program and has
seven Urban Youth Academies that are
either running or are in development.
I am proud of the work we have done
thus far with the RBI program and the
MLB Urban Youth Academies, but there
is more that we must accomplish, Selig
said.
We have seen a number of successful
efforts with existing MLB task forces,
and I believe we have selected the right
people to effectively address the many
factors associated with diversity in base-
ball, he said.
Diversity, black players, focus of
newly formed MLB committee

them extra outs and that we have to pound the zone. We didnt
give up. We just kept clawing, scraping, ghting and thats kind
of the mentality of this team. We dont really get too far ahead
of ourselves and we just try to compete inning by inning. Its
not hard to get focused when you have a team coming in like
[Burlingame]. Theyre the reigning PAL champs and we have a
lot of respect for them. We just want to go out and prove who
we are.
On Wednesday, the Scots were the cleaner team. In a game
where Hubbell struggled with his command (to the tune of nine
walks), Carlmonts ability to play solid defense behind No. 21
was the key. Burlingame, however, was not as disciplined
behind Tommy Cauleld, who was solid in a complete game
effort.
The Panthers jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the rst inning
thanks to an RBI elders choice by Andrew Brunicardi that
plated Phil Caulfield, and a Jian Lee single to center.
But in a sign of things to come, Burlingame made two outs on
the base path both times on failed steal attempts.
Carlmont responded by scoring once in its half of the rst on
a double by Jason Marley.
The Panthers got that run right back in the second after
Hubbell walked the bases loaded with one out. Phil Cauleld
cashed in with a single to left eld to make it 4-1, but once
again, Burligame did not capitalize further thanks to a base run-
ning mistake that led to a third out at third base.
The Scots then went to work in the second, aided largely by
a pair of errors at shortstop on routine ground balls one a
potentially inning-ending double play and another at rst
base that would have been the third out of the frame. Instead,
Carlmont scored four times on just one hit against Tommy
Cauleld and when the dust settled, the Scots were up 5-4.
A couple of bad hops went our way but the whole thing is,
we put ourselves in that situation, Vallero said. With two
strikes, we gave ourselves up a bit and put the ball in play. And
when you put the ball in play, you see things happen. You take
a big, long swing with two strikes and you dont even have the
opportunity for a bad hop. I think its a compliment to our guys
for understanding the game and situation.
After a clean third and fourth, Hubbell ran into trouble in the
fth by walking three Panther hitters. His ninth walk marked
the end of his day and in came Keaton Eichman to pitch.
Eichman got out of a rst-and-third jam thanks to a failed
double steal attempt to end the inning.
Hes a erce competitor, Vallero said of Hubbell. Pressure
isnt something that he folds to. And we dont really get caught
up in our opponent. We just try to play the game and take
whats give to us. Obviously, he didnt have his good command
today and he was out there trying to put his heart on the line
trying to make his pitches and get outs. What a compliment to
our team for responding on a day when your ace has the rock
and he doesnt have his command.
He did a great job, Scott said of Tommy Caulelds effort
on the mound. Its the rst thing I told them when we talked.
Ill take that every Wednesday and nine times out of 10 were
going to win a ball game, so Ill take that every time. Im happy
with what Tommy did today.
Aragon 7, Half Moon Bay 3
A four-run fth inning was the difference for the Aragon
baseball team as they took down Half Moon Bay 7-3.
Aldo Severson threw six strong innings to earn the win and
the Dons won the game despite being out-hit 6-5.

AUGUSTA, Ga. For almost 20 years, Ernie
Els had a standing invite to the Masters.
Last year, his name wasnt on the guest list.
This year, hes back after a surprise victory at
the 2012 British Open gave him a get-in-free
card for the next ve years.
Thats all you can ask for at my age, the 43-
year-old said Wednesday. To be able to play
with the top players in the world at this level for
the next ve years means the world.
From the rst time he played here, theres been
something about Augusta National that agrees
with Els. He tied for eighth in his debut in 1994.
Hes been runner-up twice, in 2000 and 2004,
and never nished lower
than sixth in the years in
between.
Hes missed only four
cuts in the 18 times hes
played, and failed to crack
the top 25 another four
years.
I feel when Im on my
game, this place is perfect
for me because it really tests
your everything, he said. Your mental strength,
your patience. And then, physically, youve got to
drive the ball, irons as well, chip and putt all
of that stuff. You cant uke winning it.
As difcult as it is to win, its almost as tough
to get in.
For 18 straight years, that wasnt a problem for
Els. His major championships he won the
1994 and 97 U.S. Opens as well as the 2002
British Open earned him ve-year exemp-
tions, and it was a rare year when he wasnt in the
top 20 on the PGA Tour.
But after winning twice in 2010, his career
began a downward spiral. He was winless in
2011, and missed the cut at the U.S. Open,
British Open and PGA Championship. His only
top-10 nish was a fourth at the Frys.com Open,
a Fall Series event when most of the golf world
has already wound down for the season.
He fell to 93rd on the PGA Tour money list,
the rst time hed been out of the 50 since his
second season.
Els knew hed have to scramble early in the
2012 season to reclaim his spot at the Masters,
and he was in the top ve at the Transitions
Championship and Bay Hill. Needing a win at
the Houston Open to get to Augusta National, he
nished in a tie for 12th.
Though there was talk of giving Els a special
exemption, thats all it was talk.
So for the rst time since 1993, he spent
Masters week at home.
Obviously, I missed not being here, he said.
I had a good run in March last year and I knew
what I needed to do. I just kind of fell short. It
was ne, really. It was almost better they didnt
invite me because I felt I could play myself back
in here. And thats the way it should be.
Two weeks after the Masters, Els had a 6-foot
putt to win on the rst hole of a playoff with
Jason Dufner. It never had a chance, but it was a
sign that the big South African still had plenty of
game.
After missing last year, Els returns to Masters

NCAA clears Tulsa in AD gambling case
TULSA, Okla. The University of Tulsa said Wednesday
it faces no punishment from the NCAA for sports betting
violations allegedly committed by the schools now-red
athletic director.
Tulsa said the collegiate governing bodys investigation
into how the school handled the case involving Ross Parmley
yielded a secondary violation.
The NCAA denes secondary violations as isolated or
inadvertent events that occur frequently and are usually
resolved administratively. An NCAA spokeswoman
declined to comment on Tulsas secondary violation
Wednesday, instead referring questions to the school.
Tulsa said the NCAA determined that its swift ring of
Parmley and enhancement of its in-house education policies
regarding sports wagering was enough, said Don Tomkalski,
an athletic department spokesman.

end before burying his shot at the opposite
end.
M-A, however, responded both times. Trent
Benedick was lling the lane and took a feed
from Drew Uphoff before nding the back of
the net and Duncan McGinnis tied the game
off an assist from Kihira Kotaro.
But back-to-back goals from Noah
Kawasaki and Andrew Daschbach gave SHP a
4-2 lead after the rst quarter.
The two teams traded goals for much of the
second period, with the Gators maintaining
their two-goal lead much of the time.
But two M-A goals less than a minute apart
pulled the Bears even. The most impressive
was M-A defenseman Nicholas Mullens, who
scooped up a loose ball deep in the Bears
defensive end and then lumbered into the
attack. He was met by a SHP defender about
25 yards from goal, but Mullen simply
bounced off him. He spun past the dazed
defender, stumbled as he entered the crease,
but held it together long enough to re a shot
past the Gators goaltender.
SHP appeared to take some of the momen-
tum back when Mayle scored his third goal of
the half with 22 seconds remaining until half-
time.
In the third quarter, M-A outscored the
Gators 4-1 to take control of the match. Uphoff
tied the match at 7 moments after the second-
half faceoff. Uphoff controlled the faceoff and
ran right at the SHP defense. His initial shot
was blocked, but he stuck with the play, forced
a turnover and then deposited the ball in the
back of the net. Schleins goal at 8:18 gave the
Bears an 8-7 lead, but SHP came back to tie it
on a Kawasaki strike.
M-A, however, took the lead for good and
then extended it going into nal 12 minutes
with a pair of goals from Jordan Zuk.
The Bears extended their lead to three, 11-8,
scoring the rst goal of the nal period. SHP
got a goal back, but Schleins fourth strike of
the match with 5:41 left gave the Bears some
breathing room, 12-9. The Gators scored in the
nal minute, but the Bears then ran out the
clock.
The big difference was, we fought harder
than we have in the last three weeks, Kryger
said.
Continued from page 11
LAX
Kryger based the trip on the results on the
game. In the end, however, Kryger knows the
trip was about more than just lacrosse.
We did it for a lot of reasons, Kryger
said. (It was) a once in a lifetime experi-
ence.
The memories of the scores from those
games a 10-5 loss to John Carroll School
and a 8-4 defeat at the hands of Gerstell
Academy will eventually fade. What will
remain is the time the Bears were let loose in
our nations capital. Kryger said about 40
members of the Bears lacrosse program
players, coaches and chaperones ew out
on a red-eye Tuesday night and arrived in
Washington, D.C., Wednesday morning.
They were given a private tour of the capital
and then had the opportunity to throw the
ball around on the National Mall in
Washington, D.C. Surrounded by the
Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial
and the Potomac River, the Bears had per-
mission to hold a light practice.
Its just a big, open polo eld, Kryger
said. There was a cop who came by (to
check on us) and we had our permit with us.
Day 2 was spent at Johns Hopkins
University where M-A got to hold a full, for-
mal practice at the schools lacrosse facili-
ties. Johns Hopkins is a NCAA Division I
lacrosse power and Kryger had to be hoping
some of the programs ambiance would rub
off on his Bears. Kryger said his team was
given a tour of the universitys facilities, the
lacrosse hall of fame and then spent time
with the Blue Jays coach, one of their play-
ers and the schools athletic director.
The third day was time to get down to
business with matches. Kryger said John
Carroll School and Gerstell Academy were
not the cream of the East Coast crop, but
they were pretty darn good. He compared
them to some of the top teams in the Bay
Area.
Bellarmine is the best team weve faced.
Then Monte Vista-Danville, then Sacred
Heart and then the East Coast schools,
Kryger said.
In other words, teams the Bears were capa-
ble of beating them but didnt leaving
Kryger frustrated with the results.
I dont know if we felt we belong (on the
eld with them), Kryger said. We were at
our C game.
Kryger said the East Coast players were no
more skilled with the stick than his Bears,
they just had a better sense of the game than
their West Coast counterparts, something he
attributes to the game being ingrained on the
East Coast.
I think the biggest difference between us
and those two (Baltimore) teams is, they
were in the right spot every single time,
Kryger said. We just could not get out of
our own way.
This is the second long road trip the Bears
have taken the last two years. Last year, they
went to Southern California for some relax-
ation and competition. He approached the
teams parents last summer to set up the
Baltimore trip. Kryger said he plans to go on
these type of trips every other year.

Your dishwasher, sink drain and garbage
disposal do the major dirty work in your
kitchen, and you can keep them smelling
fresh and running efciently with a few easy
steps.
If there are spots or stuck-on grime on the
dishes when they come out of the washer, or
if the sink has an unpleasant odor even after
you clean it and run the disposal, it means
these hard-working appliances may need
extra attention.
Dishwashers and drains battle kitchen
waste and activity daily, which can take a toll
on the appearance and performance if not
cleaned correctly, said Chris Salatino with
Kenmore Major Appliances.
DISHWASHERS
Electric dishwashers have a ltration sys-
tem that requires regular cleaning, especially
if you dont scrape or pre-rinse dishes.
The maintenance on a dishwasher depends
on how you treat it, says John DeSilvia, host
of DIY Networks Rescue My Renovation.
If youre not a pre-rinser, he recommends
cleaning the lter once a month. Just look at
the bottom of your dishwasher, nd and
remove your lter, then scrub away debris
with a soft brush. Rinse and reinstall.
Dont be scared, its really easy, says
DeSilvia.
If in doubt, check your owners manual on
how to nd and remove the lter. Cant nd
the instructions? Log on to your manufactur-
ers website. Or online tutorials at sites such
as DIYNetwork.com and YouTube.com can
help you through the process.
The interior of your dishwasher may also
appear lmy at times. To get rid of that
buildup, Salatino advises waiting until the
washer has nished a cycle and cooled. Then
make a paste with powdered detergent or use
liquid detergent on a damp sponge to wipe
away mineral deposits. Follow up by running
a normal cycle.
If youre in a hard water area and wiping
with detergent doesnt remove all the lm, run

a normal cycle with two cups of white vinegar
in an upright glass on the lower rack. Salatino
advises turning off the heated dry option
during the cycle.
There also are commercial cleaners market-
ed especially for mineral buildup in dishwash-
ers.
Consumer Reports recommends replacing
worn or rusted dish racks, and using care
when loading dishes and silverware so you
dont damage spray arms. Inspect the arms to
make sure they arent clogged with debris,
which could affect water pressure. Use pipe
cleaners to dislodge blockages.
For cleaning the outside of your dishwasher,
Salatino says all you need is a soft, damp cloth
or sponge and mild detergent. If youve got a
stainless steel cover, youll need a special
cleanser.
SUPER SUDS
Phosphates, which help control water hard-
ness, were eliminated from dishwater deter-
gents a few years ago over pollution concerns.
Since then, some consumers have complained
that dishes dont seem as clean.
Lucinda Ottusch, with Whirlpools Institute
of Kitchen Science, says one mistake people
make is buying cheap detergent. She says the
all-in-one packets by name-brand companies
really do help your dishwasher perform best.
She also recommends a rinse aid, which
promotes drying by allowing the water to
sheet off dishes.
Loading your dishwasher properly also can
aid cleaning. Find tips at http://www.institute-
ofkitchenscience.com/kitchen-101/dishwash-
ers
And, you dont have to wait until the dish-
washer is full to run a cycle. Ottusch says
many newer models sense the size of a load
and how dirty the dishes are, and work accord-
ingly.
Running the dishwasher takes very little
water and energy, and waiting until it is
packed full of dishes can compromise clean-
ing performance, she says.
DIRTY DRAINING
If youve got a smelly drain, theres proba-
bly bacteria growing in it.
To eliminate the problem, start by mixing a
cup of baking soda and a cup of vinegar. Pour
the mixture down the drain, let it sit for 15
minutes or more, then run the disposal and
rinse with hot water.
To clean disposal blades, freeze white vine-
gar in ice cube trays and let the disposal grind
away at them. The ice will help dislodge
stuck-on debris, and the vinegar freshens the
unit.
If theres still an odor, try pouring in half a
cup of bleach, but not if you have a septic sys-
tem. You may need to go buy a live enzyme
product that eats away bacteria, or a corrosive
cleaner meant to unclog drains.
If your sinks drain plug has moldy buildup,
soak it in a vinegar or bleach solution, then
wipe away any remaining grime. If mold
builds up again quickly, replace the plug.
Home improvement stores should offer styles
that t your sink, and some even stock scent-
ed versions.
If unpleasant odors continue, consider
whether you might have a backed-up disposal
or clogged plumbing.
THE GRIND
The crunching and gnashing of your dispos-
al may make you leery of touching it, but there
are ways you can keep it running well without
calling a professional.
DeSilvia says to always run cold water
before, during and after using the disposal.
Never use hot water with your garbage dis-
posal, he says. It breaks down food, causing
it to liquify and accumulate around your
pipes.
Its best to scrape large pieces of food into
the trash can, then let the disposal take care of
smaller scraps. Dont put potato peels, shell-
sh, coffee grounds or other brous foods into
the disposal. Theyre clog-makers.
DeSilvia reminds homeowners never to put
their hand in the disposal. If it wont grind, use
the reset button, usually a black or red button
on the bottom of the unit. Make sure the out-
let the disposal is plugged into is working.

TIPS
of building a dialogue on the budget and other
topics.
After four years of trillion-dollar-plus decits
in his rst term, Obamas plan projects a $973
billion decit for the current budget year and red
ink of $744 billion for the 2014 scal year start-
ing in October. By 2016, the decit is seen as
dropping below 3 percent of the size of the
economy, a level that many economists say is
manageable.
Obama cast his budget as a compromise offer
that would bridge differences between
Republicans and their desire for reducing gov-
ernment spending and Democrats who want
more revenue from taxpayers. But its difcult
to overstate the gulf between Obama and the
conservatives who are in the GOP drivers seat
in Congress.
While the budget proposal will not prompt
any immediate congressional action, it will
probably surface this summer when
Republicans are expected to demand additional
reductions in the decit in exchange for increas-
ing the nations borrowing authority.
Obama claims $1.8 trillion in decit savings
over the coming decade, but the budget tables
show the savings are actually $1.4 trillion. And
$1.2 trillion of that is devoted to reversing auto-
matic, across-the-board spending cuts required
because of Washingtons inability to follow up a
2011 budget pact with further decit action.
This is worse than a status quo budget, said
House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan,
R-Wis. He said it has about $1 trillion in new
taxes, $1 trillion in new spending with decit
reduction of only $119 billion over 10 years
under GOP math that sorts through questionable
interpretations employed by the White House.
For instance, Obama claims $167 billion in
lower war costs money the administration
never intended to spend and uses that sav-
ings for road projects and other undertakings it
bills as jobs initiatives.
The real cuts include $400 billion scrubbed
from health care programs like Medicare over
the coming decade, including cuts in payments
to drug companies and higher Medicare premi-
ums for people who are better off.
The administration would modestly cut the
annual operating budgets for both the Pentagon
and domestic agencies while reprising ideas like
higher Transportation Security Administration
fees on airline tickets, the end of Saturday mail
delivery and higher pension contributions for
federal workers.
He does deserve some credit for some incre-
mental entitlement reforms, said Boehner, R-
Ohio. But I would hope that he would not hold
hostage these modest reforms for his demand
for bigger tax hikes. Listen, why dont we do
what we can agree to do?
Thats not the way it works, countered Gene
Sperling, the director of Obamas National
Economic Council. The offer that is there for
Speaker Boehner is not an a la carte menu.
And Rep. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., said he
had reservations about the White House making
concessions without getting anything in return.
He said, The president will have to remain rm
in his insistence that this is a package deal.
The White House budget claims $580 billion
in tax increases on the wealthy over 10 years,
including a 28 percent cap on itemized deduc-
tions thats never gotten anywhere on Capitol
Hill.
The total climbs closer to $1 trillion in tax
increases after adding in ideas like a 94 cents-
per-pack increase in taxes on cigarettes, changes
for corporate foreign earnings, slower ination
adjustments to income tax brackets, elimination
of oil and gas production subsidies, an increase
in the estate tax, a new nancial crisis respon-
sibility fee on banks and new taxes on trading
of exotic nancial instruments known as deriva-
tives.
Republicans predictably slammed Obamas
plan for its tax increases, while his Democratic
allies generally held their tongues over cuts to
Social Security benets.
Its not the budget I would write on my own,
and it includes several policies that I dont think
are the best ways to tackle the decit and debt,
said Senate Budget Committee Chairman Patty
Murray, D-Wash.
Reacting more strongly, the senior citizens
advocacy group AARP said it was deeply dis-
mayed that President Obama would propose
cutting the benets of current and future Social
Security recipients, including children, widows,
veterans and people with disabilities, to reduce
the decit. And AFL-CIO President Richard
Trumka, whose organization spent tens of mil-
lions of dollars helping re-elect Obama, called
the cuts wrong and indefensible.
The Social Security cuts would come from a
slightly stingier ination adjustment known as
chained CPI that would reduce annual cost-
of-living increases for a variety of programs by
about 0.3 percentage points a year. It would
reduce federal spending on government pro-
grams over 10 years by $130 billion and prom-
ises to save far more in subsequent decades.
Once the change was fully phased in, Social
Security benets for a typical middle-income
65-year-old would be about $136 less a year,
according to an analysis of Social Security data.
At age 75, annual benets under the new index
would be $560 less. But after age 75, Social
Security recipients would receive larger-than-
scheduled benet increases by 0.5 percentage
points a year through age 85.
Obama promises to ease the burden of the
proposal on the poor and the very elderly by not
applying it to programs meant for low-income
Americans. That means annual increases in
assistance programs such as Social Security
Supplemental Security Income and Pell Grants
for student aid would not be calculated by using
the lower ination formula.

If April showers bring May owers, what
do April urries bring?
Luckily, the same thing: owers. Plus a lit-
tle extra time to nish garden tasks while your
plants are dormant.
Springs chilly start has almost everyone I
know grumbling. Many plants in my garden
seem just as disgruntled. Most of my perenni-
als are only now beginning to wake up, sever-
al weeks later than normal. I have a feeling
that when the weather breaks, there will be an
explosion of growth.
Not every plant gets the doldrums from an
extended winter. Most spring bulbs dont the
below-average temperatures. Mine popped up
out of the ground right on time and have stuck
around much longer than usual.
Some of my earlier bulbs to bloom were
naturalized patches of a species of wild crocus
called C. tommasinianus. This diminutive
bulb with pale purple owers is much smaller
in stature and much less showy than its larger
hybrid cousins, but it has the advantage of
being very prolic. It will self-sow readily
when conditions are right, and within a few
years it will produce swaths of early spring
owers.
The show is beautiful but all too brief, last-
ing just long enough for the flowers to
become pollinated. After the owers fade, the
plants grassy green foliage will remain in
place until the heat of early summer sends the
bulbs back into dormancy until the following
spring.
Appearing right alongside the crocus are
patches of Galanthus nivalis. True to their
common name, my snowdrops begin pushing
up through the snow in our front garden long
before the rest of my spring bulbs begin to
appear. Once the snow recedes, they explode
into bloom in a matter of days.
In cool springs like this one, snowdrops will
remain in bloom for a very long time. In fact,
they relish the cold. Snowdrops are very
tough plants and, like Crocus tommasinianus,
steadily increase their numbers every year
when planted in average garden soil and plen-
ty of sun.
Over time large clumps will form. The
clumps are easily divided and can either be
relocated to other parts of the garden or given
away to friends. I divide and move clumps
while they are in bloom with no adverse
affects.
There are advantages to a late breaking
spring. Cool temperatures help keep many
plants dormant and provide the perfect oppor-
tunity for transplanting.
Each spring, while temperatures are still
cool and there is adequate moisture in the soil,
I reassess my garden and decide whether any
plants need to be relocated to other areas.
Plants that have grown too close, or that are
not receiving adequate amounts of light (or,
for that matter, too much light) are dug up and
moved to more appropriate parts of the gar-
den. Sometimes I just change my mind about
which plants should be neighbors based on
color, bloom time, leaf texture or size.
Most plants are very forgiving about being
relocated, providing they are moved while
they are still dormant and, equally important,
provided they are moved with an adequately
sized root ball for the size of the plant.
Over the years I have relocated everything
from trees to diminutive rock garden plants in
my garden. The key to successful transplanti-
ng is timing. In general most plants prefer to
be moved after winter is over and before their
spring growth begins.
Even large trees can be relocated. Some
trees move easily, while others take some
planning. Professionals who know how to
prepare the correct sized root ball should dig
and move large specimens.
If winter isnt ready to loosen its grip in
your area just yet, dont despair. Take advan-
tage of the cool temperatures to get your gar-
den in order.
A cooler spring has its advantages for gardens
Snowdrops are one ower that benet from extended cold in early spring.

San Carlos Elementary School District
Board of Trustees will discuss the peti-
tion. Officials in the Redwood City
Elementary School District will discuss
the petition later this month.
Moving forward, both districts will be
given the opportunity to weigh in on the
petition.
Public hearings will be held in both
districts next month, said Nancy Magee,
county Office of Education spokes-
woman. Each school district will also
have the opportunity to object. If no one
objects, the San Mateo County
Committee on School District
Organization can make a decision. The
committee will weigh in on the merits of
the petition either way, said Magee. An
objection, on the other hand, could spark
a vote by property owners.
When the seven houses at 60-90
Loma Road were made part of the
Redwood City School District, they
were connected via Loma Road. Then a
few decades ago, a landslide divided
Loma Road in half, and cut off access
for 60-90 Loma Road to the Redwood
City schools. Since then there has only
been one way in and out, through the
San Carlos neighborhood that is part of
the San Carlos District, according to the
petition submitted by Loma Road home
owners Jeffrey Brown and Robert
Meyer.
A fence now blocks the unpaved por-
tion of the road wiped out during the
landslide. The petition goes on to say 80
and 90 Loma Road have since been
annexed to the city of San Carlos and
several city services are provided to the
area by San Carlos. It also claims that
children in the homes have historically
attended San Carlos schools. Of those
living in the area, one has a child cur-
rently enrolled at Heather Elementary
School and three other children are in
preschool, according to the petition.
In recent years, a number of boundary
requests have been made in the county.
In 2011, Mark Bendick submitted a
neighborhood petition to change the
school assignments for the homes on
Fairmont Drive. At the time, students
were zoned to attend Belmont-Redwood
Shores Elementary and Sequoia Union
High school districts. Under the propos-
al, students would instead attend the San
Mateo-Foster City Elementary and San
Mateo Union High school districts. In
October, the San Mateo County
Committee on School District
Organization gave a preliminary OK to
the plans but only one of the four dis-
tricts involved supported the plan. As
such, a special election was held in May
2012 among the 77 voters who ultimate-
ly decided to allow the property transfer.
An ongoing boundary battle remains
between the South San Francisco
Unied and San Bruno Park School dis-
tricts. In August, 58 families living in 70
homes on a nine-acre parcel once used
for a San Bruno elementary schools
now known as the Merimont subdivision
submitted a petition requesting the
boundaries be changed from the South
San Francisco Unied School District.
Along with the fact that the land previ-
ously housed a school in the San Bruno
Park Elementary School District, the
petitioners also note most of the neigh-
borhood children attend school in San
Bruno. As such, they would like to con-
tinue with friends through high school
into the San Mateo Union High School
District, according to the petition. The
issue is still working its way through the
process.
The board meets 7 p.m. Thursday,
April 11 at the Central Middle School
library, 828 Chestnut St.

CHANGE
the Bay is staging an exuberant produc-
tion.
The show is based on Old Possums
Book of Practical Cats, a series of
whimsical poems by T.S. Eliot. All of
the characters are cats, each a distinct
individual introduced through songs by
Andrew Lloyd Webber.
The best-known song is Memory,
poignantly sung by Heather Orth as
Grizabella, a once-glamorous cat now
long past her prime and shunned by the
other cats.
The biggest crowd-pleasers are
Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cat and
The Song of the Jellicles and the
Jellicle Ball, along with The Old
Gumbie Cat. All three feature terric
solo and ensemble dancing by the ener-
getic cast, while Gumbie adds a fun
tap scene to the enjoyment.
The show is directed and choreo-
graphed by Robyn Tribuzi, who has
honed the dancers into a precision
ensemble. The only misstep in her direc-
tion comes from Jack Mosbacher, who
sings well and struts like Mick Jagger
but overdoes the pelvic thrusts in The
Rum Tum Tugger.
Musical direction is by Sean Kana,
who conducts the orchestra from the
keyboards. Even with only eight musi-
cians, including Kana, the orchestral
sound is full.
Likewise, the vocal ensemble is well
balanced even though a few singers
seem less accomplished in their solos.
Diction is sometimes a problem.
The cat-like costumes and junk yard
set come from FCLO Music Theatre. A
few glitches were evident in Michael
Ramsaurs lighting design opening
night.
As for the show itself, the plot is thin,
while Lloyd Webbers music becomes
repetitious, especially in the second act.
Still, there is much to admire in both the
show and this production, which runs
about 135 minutes with intermission.
Cats continues at the Fox Theatre,
2215 Broadway, Redwood City, through
April 21. For tickets and information
call 579-5565 or go to www.broadway-
bythebay.org.

CATS
council considered Tuesday night were:
No requirement at point of sale;
Seller disclosure without an inspec-
tion required;
Seller disclosure with inspection
and repair (if needed) completed by
buyer within 180 days of close of
escrow;
Inspection before close of escrow
and repair (if needed) completed by
buyer within 180 days of close of
escrow; and
Inspection and repair (if needed)
completed before the close of
escrow.
The council went with the seller dis-
closure without an inspection required
option that was essentially proposed by
Councilman Warren Lieberman back in
January.
The council also raised the limit for
when sewer lateral inspections will be
required on home remodels from
$50,000 to $200,000.
The citys goal is to reduce the inflow
and infiltration from private sewer lat-
erals that can lead to sewage overflows
and potential fines for the city.
The city has undertaken a series of
measures to reduce inflow and infiltra-
tion including a smoke-testing program
and FOG program where restaurants
and other businesses are made aware of
the fats, oils and grease that harm the
sewer system.
Some cities in the county already
have the mandate but that is due to a
court order after pollution watchdog
San Francisco Baykeeper sued several
cities after excessive sewage waste
flowed into freshwater creeks and the
Bay. Pacifica, South San Francisco,
Millbrae and Burlingame already
require the inspections at the point of
sale but Belmont is not required to.
The ordinance will come back to the
council for a second reading at a future
date.

aries (March 21-April 19) -- If youre thinking of
teaming up with others in something that requires
an investment, test the waters before plunging in.
That pond might not hold everybody.
TaUrUs (April 20-May 20) -- Independence is a
wonderful quality, but you can carry it too far when
its necessary to play nice with others. Be a team
player when conditions ask it of you.
GeMini (May 21-June 20) -- Guard against a
tendency to treat your duties indifferently. Serious
matters should never be treated in a cavalier
fashion.
CanCer (June 21-July 22) -- Accept your friends for
who and what they are, faults and all. If you display
intolerance, rest assured others will call attention to
your imperfections.
LeO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- The best way to get a
message across to your family is to lead by example.
If your attitude is Do as I say, not as I do, you
could get into trouble.
VirGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Unless associates
believe that you know what youre talking about,
they arent likely to put much credence in your
words. If you want to sway an audience, you must
be factual.
LiBra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Even though you are
presently in a good fnancial cycle, things could still
get rocky. In fact, chances are this could be one of
those uncertain days.

a strong and decisive person who isnt prone
to wavering. However, today you could make
associates nervous because of an inability to make
up your mind.
saGiTTariUs (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Under most
conditions, youre not averse to helping others.
Today, though, you might lack your usual
compassion and miss a chance to assist one who
really needs support.
CaPriCOrn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Be extremely
selective regarding with whom you associate. If you
get mixed up with the wrong people, the results
could be disastrous.
aQUariUs (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Be particularly
mindful of your behavior when in public, because
your image is currently fragile. Try not to do anything
that could provide fodder for your detractors.
PisCes (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Your associates will
have a strong infuence on your thinking. If you link
up with a negative individual, youre likely to see the
world from a dark perspective.
