Roads in Belmont are bad and will only get
worse if the city keeps funding street
improvements at its current level, according
to a staff report the City Council will hear
tonight.
The city ranks 18th out of 20 jurisdictions
in San Mateo County and 90th out of 102
jurisdictions in the Bay Area.
Roads are so poor in
Belmont, Councilwoman
Coralin Feierbach sus-
pects they will become a
campaign issue leading up
to Novembers election.
A survey conducted late
last year indicates the
citys overall average
pavement condition index
of its streets is 57 worn
to the point where the pavement surface
requires major rehabilitation or reconstruc-
tion, according to the Metropolitan
Transportation Commission. The PCI range
goes from 0 to 100 and a score of 57 falls into
the at-risk category.
The problem rests with the citys residential
streets, which have a PCI of 51. The city has
three kinds of streets arterial, collector and
residential. Arterial streets, such as Ralston
Avenue, are high-capacity roads that connect
to freeways and collector streets are low- to-
moderate-capacity streets that move trafc
from residential areas to arterial streets.
Belmonts arterial streets have a PCI of 76
and its collector streets have a PCI of 60,
according to the staff report. A score of 76 is
considered good and 60 is considered fair,
according to the MTC.
Most of Belmonts 70 miles of roads are
Belmont roads get low rank
Survey shows citys pavement condition is at 57 out of 100; total fix price tag $108M

County to discuss
reestablishing its
Parks Department
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
San Mateo County may spend more than $5.2 million in rev-
enue from the Measure A half-cent sales tax to reestablish its
Parks Department as a stand-alone agency
and, with it, tackle long-deferred mainte-
nance and stafng reductions that have left
many facilities with truncated hours, over-
due repairs and concerns about safety.
The parks need more than $20 million in
capital projects over the next ve years
with an annual cost between $3.5 million
and $4.5 million, according to County
Manager John Maltbie. Without a dedicat-
ed revenue stream other than the countys
general fund, the department has been left to absorb rising
costs by cutting services and staff and holding off on upkeep.
The Board of Supervisors Tuesday will discuss its parks
strategic plan and how a piece of the $60 million in annual
sales tax revenue approved by voters in November can be used
to implement a wish list of seven additional positions, major
maintenance and capital projects. The discussion is part of the
New leadership, seven positions in works

Pup named Huckleberry
crowned Beautiful Bulldog
DES MOINES, Iowa If at rst you
dont succeed, wipe the slobber off and
try again. Just ask 4-year-old pup
Huckleberry, whos been crowned this
years Beautiful Bulldog.
Huckleberry competed for the title in
2010, only to walk away empty-pawed.
That changed Monday, when he strutted
down a blue runway at Drake University
in Des Moines dressed in a beige suit as
the main character from the movie
Forrest Gump.
He beat 46 other dogs to don the crown
and cape and seemed unfazed by the
attention as he later feasted on a dog-
friendly cake.
Huckleberrys owners say their pooch
is a lover who spends all his time playing
with a miniature basketball.
The contest thats now in its 34th year
is held ahead of the annual Drake Relays
track and eld meet.
Woman meets
circus tiger in bathroom
SALINA, Kan. A central Kansas
woman likely wont remember her rst
circus for the clowns or performances
itll be the tiger in the bathroom.
The big cat had escaped briey after its
turn in the ring Saturday at the Isis Shrine
Circus in Salina. Staff members blocked
off the concourses at the Bicentennial
Center as the tiger wandered into the
bathroom, where one of the doors was
blockaded.
About that time, Salina resident Jenna
Krehbiel decided she needed to use the
restroom. When she walked in the door
that hadnt been blocked off, she found a
tiger standing about 2 feet away, The
Salina Journal reported.
You dont expect to go in a bathroom
door, have it shut behind you and see a
tiger walking toward you, Krehbiel said.
Chris Bird, manager at the Bicentennial
Center, said the bathroom was only 25
feet long.
Once she saw the tiger, Im sure she
knew to go the other way, Bird said.
Overall, it was a scary, surreal moment. I
am glad no one was hurt or injured.
The tiger was captured within minutes
and returned to its enclosure.
Krehbiel, a social worker, said she did-
nt scream or run because she is trained to
stay calm.
Looking back, it was a scary ordeal,
she said. At the time, I was thinking I just
needed to get out.
Krehbiel said her 3-year-old daughter
had a different reaction.
My daughter wanted to know if it had
washed its hands, Krehbiel said. That
was her only concern. I think that shows
the thoughts of children and that they
wouldnt have known there was danger.
Man reunited with
bird he lost in a divorce
BUTTE, Mont. A Great Falls man
who lost his macaw in a divorce more
than ve years ago has been reunited with
the bird, thanks to an observant friend.
Mike Taylor picked up the 25-year-old
bird he calls Love Love at Montanas
Parrot & Exotic Bird Sanctuary in Butte
on Sunday.
Taylor said his wife sold the bird after a
nasty divorce. Ive been kind of looking
for him the whole time, he said.
A friend of Taylors, Steven Campbell,
recently spotted the bird during a visit to
the sanctuary.
It took some time for Campbell to con-
vince Taylor. Then Taylor had to convince
sanctuary founder Lori McAlexander. But
she said he knew things about the bird that
only a previous owner could have known,
like it was blind in one eye, said love
love and liked to play peek-a-boo.

State Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo, has
challenged both Pacic Gas and Electric and
the agency that governs it, the California
Public Utilities Commission, to step up and
make the states gas delivery system safer
after the San Bruno pipeline explosion and re
that killed eight in 2010.
Over the years, Hill has crafted legislation
to make both PG&E and the CPUC more
accountable to the public while also safe-
guarding it.
But numerous reports, especially an internal
Safety Culture document released last
week, indicates that the CPUC has placed less
importance on safety than it should have.
Now, Hill has a new challenge for the
CPUC have your president sit down with
lawmakers this Thursday to answer questions
related to fiscal responsibility and safety
issues.
The CPUC president is Michael Peevey,
appointed to the post more than 10 years ago
by then governor Gray
Davis.
Hill calls Peevey a dic-
tator who can only be
ousted from his job by
Gov. Jerry Brown or a two-
thirds vote in the
Legislature.
It would be nice to be
able to question him, Hill
told the Daily Journal yes-
terday.
Hill invited Peevey to testify at the Senate
Budget and Fiscal Review Subcommittee this
Thursday.
All concur that there is a problem at
CPUC. It appears to be out of control, Hill
said about National Transportation Safety
Board, Legislative Analysts Ofce and inter-
nal CPUC reports.
The confidential internal CPUC report
released last week quoted numerous employ-
ees of the organization who said safety was
not a priority or that the commission did not
want to levy nes for safety violations against
utilities such as PG&E.
If we were enforcing
the rules, we would not
have to worry about a safe-
ty culture. If we were hold-
ing the utilities account-
able and doing what we
were supposed to be doing,
San Bruno would never
have happened, one
employee was quoted as
saying in the Safety
Culture document.
Hundreds of millions of dollars were also
misallocated by the CPUC, Hill contends.
Hill wants Peevey to justify his continued
appointment as president of the CPUC,
according to a letter he sent him last week.
I can only assume its the leadership, Hill
said about CPUC failings. Whoever the pres-
ident is do the job properly.
Peevey was reappointed to the presidency in
2008 by then governor Arnold
Schwarzenegger. His term expires Jan. 1,
2015.
He could not be reached for comment yes-
terday.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
The San Mateo County Community
College District is seeking public input on
how to fill a vacancy on its board.
Board President Helen Hausman plans to
step down April 30 due to health problems.
Hausman joined the board in 1989. Her cur-
rent term expires in November. There are
generally two options for filling such a
vacancy: appointing a person to fill the
remainder of the term or holding a special
election, which comes at an additional cost to
the district. However, the election could be
held in November, according to a staff report.
On Wednesday, the board will discuss the
options. Its hoping to gather public input.
If an appointment is chosen, the board
would establish a process and timeline that
will allow the appointment to be made by
June 29. Interviews of candidates and selec-
tion of a candidate must take place at a meet-
ing open to the public, according to a district
press release. If an election is chosen, it
could take place either on the next estab-
lished election date which, in this case,
would be Nov. 5, or on the last Tuesday in
August via a mail ballot. A countywide elec-
tion with a mail ballot is anticipated to cost
more than $500,000.
Those who cannot attend can submit writ-
ten opinions on the process can email chris-
tensen@smccd.edu.
The board meets 6 p.m. Wednesday, April
24 at the District Office, 3401 CSM Drive,
San Mateo.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO In the
wake of the Boston bombings, San
Franciscos police chief wants more
security cameras along a major
thoroughfare that hosts parades and
other big events.
Chief Greg Suhr said additional
cameras on Market Street would
give police extra eyes during such
major events.
The San Francisco Giants held
their 2010 and
2012 World
Series victory
parades along
the street that
also serves as
the starting point
for the citys
wacky Bay-to-
B r e a k e r s
footrace.
Popular parades celebrating
Chinese New Year and gay pride
also go down Market Street, which
carries electric trolleys, a popular
tourist attraction. On Friday,
scores of bicyclists are expected to
trek through the street during the
citys monthly Critical Mass
bike ride.
Suhr plans to oat the idea for the
extra security cameras at an upcom-
ing City Hall hearing called by
Supervisor Eric Mar. Wed like to
have more so we could have a con-
tinuous operating picture of all
Market Street, Suhr said. Thats
where all of our parades are. Thats
where all of our events are.
Suhr said there are numerous pri-
vate security cameras on the street,
but police want more surveillance.
For us, it would be great that
every time we had a major event we
had a command post where you
could have a bank of video cameras
on top of having all the police and
public eyes and ears that are out
there, Suhr said.

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.
If you ever wish to discuss cremation,
funeral matters or want to make pre-
planning arrangements please feel free to
call me and my staff at the CHAPEL OF
THE HIGHLANDS in Millbrae at (650)
588-5116 and we will be happy to guide you

Bill would update
19th century rape law
SACRAMENTO California lawmakers
advanced a bill Monday to close a legal loop-
hole that allowed a rape conviction to be over-
turned because the woman was not married.
Julio Morales was initially convicted of
impersonating the boyfriend of the woman so
he could have sex with her while she was
sleeping. Californias 2nd District Court of
Appeal overturned the conviction in January.
The court cited a state law dating to the
1870s that said perpetrators in such cases
would be guilty only if the woman is married
and the assailant is pretending to be the
spouse.
In this case, the woman wasnt married and
prosecutors said Morales pretended to be her
boyfriend.
Defense attorneys said Morales believed the
sex was consensual because the woman ini-
tially responded to his overtures and didnt
know he was an impostor until she saw him in
the light.
State Sen. Noreen Evans, D-Santa Rosa,
said her SB59 would x the outdated statute.
It would exchange the word spouse for
sexually intimate partner in state law. That
would expand the legal language to include
people who do not t into the denition of a
spouse.
Assemby approves
limit on cancer drug cost
SACRAMENTO Some cancer patients
in California could see their out-of-pocket
costs reduced under a bill that has passed one
house of the Legislature.
AB219 caps the cost to patients for oral
anticancer drugs at $100 per prescription. It
passed the Assembly Monday on a 62-10 and
was sent to the Senate.
Democratic Assemblyman Henry Perea of
Fresno, the bills author, says the treatment
can cost thousands of dollars per month and
may be a patients only option.

Millbraes El Camino Real corridor could
include a new stoplight by the end of next year
a change that requires a cooperative agree-
ment between city ofcials and Caltrans.
On Tuesday, the City Council will consider
amending its budget to include $203,400,
according to a staff report by Interim Public
Works Director Cyrus Kianpour. The money
would be the citys share of installing a light
at the intersection of El Camino Real and
Millwood Drive by the end of 2014. Putting a
light at the intersection often used by
Capuchino High School students has been a
topic of conversation since 2007. Initially, the
plan was to have a light up by 2016 or 2017.
Now, the two sides are working to have one in
place by the end of 2014.
To move forward, the City Council must
approve a cooperative agreement for the
$833,700 project, Kianpour wrote. Under the
agreement, Caltrans would be the project lead
sponsor, prepare the project plans and speci-
cations as well as the construction contract, he
wrote. The city is required to reimburse
Caltrans $203,400 for the project, which will
come from the citys Proposition 42 funds.
Proposition 42 is a state transportation tax
fund.
Pedestrian safety along El Camino Real has
been a focus for the city, particularly within
the last year.
Lt. Ed Barberini, chief of police services for
the San Mateo County Sheriffs Office
Millbrae Bureau, said the department hasnt
had any major incidents recently but continues
to work with the countywide effort to support
pedestrian safety.
Earlier this year, signs were put on El
Camino Real reminding drivers to be aware of
pedestrians who, in Millbrae, may be attempt-
ing to cross six lanes of the state highway
without the help of a stoplight. There has also
been extra police enforcement.
A new trafc light at the intersection of
Victoria Avenue and El Camino Real has been
installed but awaiting nal approval before
being turned on. Getting electrical service to
the lights caused a four-week delay. With
access to electricity, the city is now estimating
that the trafc light will be in operation early
next month.
The council meets 7 p.m. Tuesday, April 23
at City Hall, 621 Magnolia Ave.
Millbrae to get new stoplight on El Camino

WASHINGTON States could force
Internet retailers to collect sales taxes under a
bill that overwhelmingly passed a test vote in
the Senate Monday.
Under current law, states can only require
stores to collect sales taxes if the store has a
physical presence in the state. As a result,
many online sales are essentially tax-free, giv-
ing Internet retailers a big advantage over
brick-and-mortar stores.
The bill would allow states to require online
retailers to collect state and local sales taxes
for purchases made over the Internet. The
sales taxes would be sent to the states where
shoppers live.
The Senate voted 74 to 20 to begin debating
the bill. If that level of support continues, the
Senate could pass the bill as early as this
week.
Supporters say the bill is about fairness for
businesses and lost revenue for states.
Opponents say it would impose complicated
regulations on retailers and doesnt have
enough protections for small businesses.
Businesses with less than $1 million a year in
online sales would be exempt.
I believe it is important to level the playing
eld for all retailers, said Sen. Mike Enzi, R-
Wyo., the bills main sponsor. We should not
be subsidizing some taxpayers at the expense
of others.
In many states, shoppers are required to pay
unpaid sales tax when they le their state
income tax returns. However, states complain
that few people comply.
I do know about three people that comply
with that, Enzi said.
President Barack Obama supports the bill,
but its fate is uncertain in the House, where
some Republicans regard it as a tax increase.
Heritage Action for America, the activist arm
of the conservative Heritage Foundation,
opposes the bill and will count the vote in its
legislative scorecard.
Many of the nations governors
Republicans and Democrats have been lob-
bying the federal government for years for the
authority to collect sales taxes from online
sales, said Dan Crippen, executive director of
the National Governors Association. Those
efforts intensied when state tax revenues
took hit from the recession and the slow eco-
nomic recovery.
Bill jeopardizes tax-free online shopping
I believe it is important to level the
playing eld for all retailers. ...We should not be
subsidizing some taxpayers at the expense of others.

San Bruno will be the next city to consider
making changes to the rules governing mas-
sage establishments a move many have
made to prevent prostitution and human traf-
cking operating under the guise of legitimate
businesses.
San Bruno has 10 known massage estab-
lishments but the rules in the city do not
require consistent licensing. On Tuesday, the
City Council will consider adopting revised
rules that are more aligned with the state. In
addition, San Bruno would create a system of
issuing certicates of registration to those
who comply with state law, according to a
staff report by City Attorney Marc Zafferano.
Police Chief Neil Telford explained the pro-
posed rules would make sure everyone has the
same license requirements.
In 2008, the state passed a law governing
massage establishments and giving voluntary
oversight to the nonprot California Massage
Therapy Council. The change was meant to
free practitioners from background checks
and license fees in any and all cities where
they worked. Counties and cities cant impose
more stringent or different requirements on
massage workers than those from the state,
such as having 250 hours of education from
an approved school. In 2011, the law was
amended to strengthen it.
San Brunos rules were adopted in 2009,
shortly after the state rules originally went into
effect, according to a staff report.
Having a CAMTC license hasnt kept the city
from illegal activity. San Bruno police conduct-
ed two separate undercover operations at the
local massage establishments that resulted in
the arrest of certied massage therapists for sex
solicitation and related crimes, according to the
staff report. Gathering CAMTC permit infor-
mation resulted in police identifying 20
employees who had a valid permit. Another
search showed a CAMTC-licensed massage
therapist had a criminal record for prostitution.
Under the new ordinance, the city would
require all massage practitioners to have state
certication, register with the city and that mas-
sage parlors can only employ state-certied
employees. The ordinance also spells out other
requirements such as clean linens, sanitized
equipment and no closed shades or curtains on
front windows and doors during business hours
of 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. It would also provide the city
the right to enter during business hours to con-
duct reasonable inspections related to building,
health and other code requirements.
Regulating massage parlors has been a
struggle for neighboring jurisdictions in
recent history.
Last year, the county approved rules similar
to what San Bruno is considering.
San Carlos enacted a ban on new establish-
ments for nearly a year from July 2011
through spring of 2012 to consider new rules,
which were approved last May. Those rules
were modeled after the countys.
At the same meeting, the council will have
a second hearing of new rules for shops that
sell guns.
The council is considering creating a permit
system which requires new businesses that
plan to sell rearms to meet state standards,
keep rearms secure and offer a number of
additional safety measures like alarms, securi-
ty cameras and reinforced doors and win-
dows. The rules also set restrictions on how
close gun shops can be to homes, schools,
day-care centers, parks, other rearms deal-
ers, card rooms, massage establishments and
adult businesses. The permit would be annual
and the rules also set up an appeal process.
The council meets 7 p.m. Tuesday, April 23 at
the Senior Center, 1555 Crystal Springs Road.

BOSTON The two brothers
suspected of bombing the Boston
Marathon appear to have been moti-
vated by their religious faith but do
not seem connected to any Muslim
terrorist groups, U.S. ofcials said
Monday after interrogating the
severely wounded younger man. He
was charged with federal crimes
that could bring the death penalty.
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, was
charged in his hospital room with
using a weapon of mass destruction
to kill. He was accused of joining
with his older brother, Tamerlan
now dead in setting off the pres-
sure-cooker bombs that killed three
people and wounded more than 200
a week ago.
The brothers, ethnic Chechens
from Russia who
had been living
in the U.S. for
about a decade,
practiced Islam.
D z h o k h a r
Tsarnaev com-
municated with
his interrogators
in writing, a
less-than-ideal
format that pre-
cluded the type of detailed back-
and-forth crucial to establishing the
facts, said one of two ofcials who
recounted the questioning. They
spoke on condition of anonymity
because they were not authorized to
publicly discuss the investigation.
The two ofcials said the prelimi-
nary evidence from an interrogation
suggests the Tsarnaev brothers were
driven by religion but had no ties to
Islamic terrorist organizations.
At the same
time, they cau-
tioned that they
were still trying
to verify what
they were told
by Dzhokhar
Tsarnaev and
were looking at
such things as
his telephone
and online com-
munications and his associations
with others.
The criminal complaint contain-
ing the charges against Dzhokhar
Tsarnaev shed no light on the
motive.
But it gave a detailed sequence of
events and cited surveillance-cam-
era images of him dropping off a
knapsack with one of the bombs and
using a cellphone, perhaps to coor-
dinate or detonate the blasts.

The elder suspect in the Boston
bombings regularly attended a
mosque and spent time learning to
read the Quran, but he struggled to
t in during a trip to his ancestral
homeland in southern Russia last
year, his aunt said.
Tamerlan Tsarnaev seemed
more American than Chechen and
did not t into the Muslim life in
Russias Caucasus, Patimat
Suleimanova told the Associated
Press. She said when Tsarnaev
arrived in January 2012, he wore a
winter hat with a little pompom,
something no local man would
wear, and we made him take it
off.
Tsarnaev and his younger broth-
er are accused of setting off the
two bombs at the Boston Marathon
on April 15 that killed three people
and wounded more than 200.
Tsarnaev, 26, was killed in a gun
battle with police. His 19-year-old
brother, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, was
later captured alive, but badly
wounded.

TORONTO Two men were
arrested and charged with plotting a
terrorist attack against a Canadian
passenger train with support from
al-Qaida elements in Iran, police
said Monday. The case bolstered
allegations by some governments
and experts of a relationship of con-
venience between Shiite-led Iran
and the predominantly Sunni Arab
terrorist network.
Chiheb Esseghaier, 30, and Raed
Jaser, 35, had direction and guid-
ance from al-Qaida members in
Iran, though there was no reason to
think the planned attacks were state-
sponsored, RCMP Assistant
Commissioner James Malizia said.
Police said the men did not get
nancial support from al-Qaida, but
declined to provide more details.
This is the rst known al-Qaida
planned attack that weve experi-
enced in Canada, Superintendent
Doug Best told a news conference.
Ofcials in Washington and Toronto
said it had no connections to last
weeks bombings at the marathon in
Boston.
The arrests in Montreal and
Toronto raised questions about
Irans murky relationship with the
terrorist network. Bruce Riedel, a
CIA veteran who is now a
Brookings Institution senior fellow,
said al-Qaida has had a clandestine
presence in Iran since at least 2001
and that neither the terror group nor
Tehran speak openly about it.
The Iranian regime kept some of
these elements under house arrest,
he said in an email to the Associated
Press. Some probably operate
covertly. AQ members often transit
Iran traveling between hideouts in
Pakistan and Iraq.
U.S. intelligence officials have
long tracked limited al-Qaida activ-
ity inside Iran. Remnants of al-
Qaidas so-called management
council are still there, though they
are usually kept under virtual house
arrest by an Iranian regime suspi-
cious of the Sunni-/Salafi-based
militant movement. There are also a
small number of financiers and
facilitators who help move money,
and sometimes weapons and people
throughout the region from their
base in Iran.

OXFORD, Miss. Investigators
havent found any ricin in the house
of a Mississippi man accused of
mailing poisoned letters to President
Barack Obama, a U.S. senator and a
local judge, according to testimony
Monday from an FBI agent.
Agent Brandon Grant said that a
search of Paul Kevin Curtis vehicle
and house in Corinth, Miss., on
Friday did not turn up ricin, ingredi-
ents for the poison, or devices used to
make it. A search of Curtis comput-
ers has found no evidence so far that
he researched making ricin.
Defense lawyers for Curtis say
investigators failure to nd any ricin
means the government should release
their client. That lack of physical evi-
dence could loom large as a deten-
tion and preliminary hearing contin-
ues Tuesday
morning. U.S.

J. Allan
Alexander ended
the hearing after
lunch Monday,
citing a personal
schedule con-
ict.
Through his
lawyer, Curtis
has denied involvement in letters sent
to Obama, Mississippi Republican
Sen. Roger Wicker, and a Lee
County, Miss., judge. The rst of the
letters was found April 15.
There was no apparent ricin,
castor beans or any material there
that could be used for the manufac-
turing, like a blender or something,
Grant testied. He speculated that
Curtis could have thrown away the
processor.

Letters to the editor
The Salt Lake Tribune, Salt Lake City
A
s the Boy Scouts of America pre-
pares for the 60th anniversary of
the Pinewood Derby May 15, a
well-timed move is afoot in the California
Legislature to strip tax-exempt status from
Scouting and other nonprot youth organiza-
tions that block gays and transsexuals from
membership.
Both efforts reect the push of tradition
and the pull of social change that dene
Scouting today as its sponsoring members
consider whether to allow openly gay boys
and adult leaders into the ranks of an
American institution that is under re and in
decline.
The question, whichever way it is decided
when the organizations national council
meets May 20 to discuss it, carries profound
implications for Scoutings future as a mold-
er of young boys pledged to be physically
strong, mentally awake and morally straight.
If the Boy Scouts holds to its exclusionary
past by rejecting the resolution, it will have
unwisely chosen a bleak future as a 103-
year-old anachronism, beset by legal chal-
lenges and a rising tide of public support for
same-sex equality that is contributing to
steady erosion in the ranks of Scouts and cor-
porate donors.
Even if, instead, the Boy Scouts adopt a
policy permitting civic and religious groups
to decide for themselves whether to welcome
gay boys and adult leaders into the troops
they sponsor, it will likely win only partial
relief from its critics. Choosing a half-meas-
ure over a full one may or may not buy time
the organization feels it needs for a gradual
move to unqualied acceptance. Such a delay
is in no way defensible. Fairness alone dic-
tates otherwise.
Indeed, fairness to taxpayers is at the heart
of legislation being considered in the
California Senate, where a committee recent-
ly voted 5-2 to recommend abolishing
exemptions from state income and sales taxes
for youth groups that discriminate on the
basis of gender identity, sexual orientation,
race, nationality, religion or religious aflia-
tion. Such groups would have to pay corpo-
rate taxes on membership dues and dona-
tions, and sales tax on food, drink and home-
made crafts sold to raise money.
The bills sponsor, Sen. Ricardo Lara,
rightly observed that while the Boy Scouts
provide a critical service for our youth, tax-
payers should not be forced into paying for
discrimination.

Editor,
The Everyone loses with Belmonts fail-
ure attack piece on Councilwoman Coralin
Feierbach by Editor in Chief Jon Mays in the
April 19 edition of the Daily Journal fell to a
low of journalistic standards and was unwar-
ranted.
As you may be aware, the vote was 3-2
against the Crystal Springs Uplands School
on the grounds of the potential impact of
increased trafc on already heavily traversed
Ralston Avenue. From my viewing of the
tape, it was obvious that two of the coun-
cilmembers who voted no had the full sup-
port of the majority of the general public in
attending the October council meeting. Go
study the video on belmont.gov.
The then mayor, with the vote at 2-2 and
holding the decisive casting vote, agonized,
waxed and waned for what seemed an eterni-
ty about how difcult a decision he faced. He
sounded like an economist. On the one hand
this and on the other hand that.
What did he seek?
Perhaps the then mayor wanted a further
increase in the already generous cash contri-
bution to city coffers that the school ofcials
had conceded they were prepared to make if
the vote was afrmative.

Diversion
Editor,
The news is all about guns, abortions, gay
marriage and the bombing at the Boston
marathon. These are of concern; but not in
terms of the sharp right turn of our federal
government. While we are diverted by these
topics the president presents his budget plans
to Congress.
The real issue that we are diverted from is
austerity. We are told that our government is
broke and we must cut our domestic pro-
grams. Cut Social Security, cut Medicare, cut
education, cut enforcement of safety regula-
tions, cut aid to the disabled and poor people.
Layoff public workers and cut their benets.
Let the kids go to bed hungry! We have way
more important ways to spend our tax funds.
We need to reward the bankers for crashing
our economy. We need to aid the Israelis in
killing Palestinians. We need to torture peo-
ple and bomb people all over the world.
Our government is not broke. They are
choosing not to tax the rich and to fund ille-
gal wars. You buy a pair of shoes and pay a
sales tax. The greedy few buy thousands of
dollars of stocks on Wall Street and dont pay
a penny in taxes. Major protable corpora-
tions pay no taxes.
Instead of cutting our domestic programs,
we need to insist that the wars end and the
rich pay their share in taxes as they did when
Reagan was inaugurated.

Joseph Locastos letter in the April 22 edi-
tion of the Daily Journal complains about
California being one of 11 states than have
more folks on welfare than working and pre-
dictably blames the Democrats.
Heres another fact for you. Latest numbers
from Tax Foundation: 21 or 33 states receiv-
ing more federal dollars than they pay in
taxes are red states. Yes, the majority of
Welfare States in this country are red
states. Dang that is inconvenient information,
and Im sure Mr. Locasto is shocked,
shocked I tell you. Incidentally, California is
not one of the Welfare States, we pay more
in taxes than we draw from the government.
I join Mr. Locasto in calling for an end to
to this free ride at the public trough by these
predominately Republican states.

Welfare in California
Editor,
While we are sad that so many people can-
not nd jobs in California and many are on
welfare, I dissent from the statement made
by Joseph Locasta in his letter published in
the April 22 edition of the Daily Journal. He
says that California is one of the states that
have more people on welfare than they have
employed.
According to the Department of
Commerce, there are 4,300,000 persons on
welfare in the United States, about one third
in California. According to the Bureau of
Labor Statistics, there were about 16,880,000
employed in California in March 2013, i.e.
almost four times as many persons as are on
welfare in the whole United States.

like other boys
(scouts or other-
wise). But sorry openly gay dads, any lead-
ers or other adult participants must still pro-
fess a hankering for girls (scouts or other-
wise).
In other words, gays OK for the kiddies
but once they hit 18 they better shelve their
pesky predilections or be ready to hang up
the bandanna because they are no longer
welcome. What a difference a day can make.
And what a difference the scouts are not
making. Instead of either A). holding rm to
its original position which is wrong and
inexible but at least consistent or B). giving
tolerance a bear hug and focusing on life
skills rather than life partners, the Boy
Scouts tried to split the difference with a
mixed message that leaves nobody particu-
larly happy or clear on the point.
The Boy Scouts maintains that any sexual
conduct is contrary to its virtues which is
ne enough. So why is only one preference
getting the shaft? If the organization really
meant what it said with this ne bit of
morality it would tie participation with vir-
ginity and toss out members when they
throw those abstinence teachings to the
wind.
The Boy Scouts governing council will
vote on the proposal in mid-May and which
way the 14,000 members bend is nearly as
unclear as the ideas intention, especially
with the addition of the word openly
before the word gay. Are the Boy Scouts
really taking a page from Dont Ask, Dont
tell, implying all is copacetic as long as
ones lips stay sealed about who they really
are? Is that how the scouts justied reported-
ly keeping quiet on the scores of alleged
sexual predators who reportedly used the
organization as a way to pick victims?
Perhaps the upper brass of the Boy Scouts
are relying on just as ridiculous stereotypes
about gay men to defend the position.
Theyll tailor their uniforms and shorten the
shorts! Theyll try starting res by rubbing
two glow sticks together! Their Eagle Scout
projects will all involve glitter and musical
theater performances! Theyll frighten the
children with scary campre stores about the
Defense of Marriage Act! Theyll trade in
their bandanna for a lavender ascot! Theyll
demand rainbow-hued badges for hairstyling
and interior decorating! Theyll convince
Cub Scouts to grow up into bears!
All ridiculous ideas about as ridiculous
as teaching children that who they are is
acceptable when they are young but that the
minute lottery tickets and voting are in reach
they better realize their second-class status
and nd a new place for civic duty. How
does one explain that to a person of any age
in a way that makes any sense at all?
The Boy Scouts may be a private organi-
zation and thereby privy to more exibility
for intolerant positions. But if it wishes not
to lose credibility and membership of the
growing masses who know that gays are
people too, the Boy Scouts need to realize it,
and not the targets of its discrimination, is
the one not good enough.
Scouts honor.

NEW YORK Stocks edged higher
on Monday as energy stocks got a lift
from recovering oil prices.
The energy industry climbed 1 per-
cent, making it the biggest gainer in the
Standard & Poors 500 index. Oil rose
75 cents, or 0.9 percent, to $88.76 a bar-
rel Monday. A week ago, crude fell
below $90 a barrel for the rst time this
year after reports that Chinas economic
growth slowed.
The broader market managed only a
modest advance as investors focused on
the outlook for company prots at the
start of a big week for earnings on Wall
Street.
About a third of the companies in the
S&P 500 index, including Exxon Mobil
and Apple, will report earnings this
week. While the reports have been good
so far, concerns remain about the out-
look for the rest of the year.
Expectations may need to be lowered if
the global economy doesnt improve.
Most of the companies seem to be
coming in ahead of earnings expecta-
tions, but the thing thats still problem-
atic is the revenue line, said Bill Stone,
chief investment strategist at PNC
Wealth Management. To me its just
symptomatic of the global economy
continuing to sputter along.
Of the companies that have reported
earnings so far, 67 percent have exceed-
ed analysts expectations, exceeding the
10-year average of 62 percent, accord-
ing to S&P Capital IQ. Analysts cur-
rently expect earnings to rise by 2 per-
cent in the rst quarter, down from the
7.7 percent increase in the fourth quar-
ter.
On Monday, oil services company
Halliburton gained after its loss wasnt
as bad as analysts had forecast.
Halliburton rose $2.08, or 5.6 percent,
to $39.29 after it said that it lost $18
million in the rst quarter, pulled down
by $637 million in charges related to its
role in the 2010 Gulf of Mexico oil spill.
Netix surged 23 percent to $214.19
in after-hours trading after the company
reported that it added 2 million U.S.
subscribers to its video streaming serv-
ice during the rst three months of the
year. Netix took a gamble by adding
original programming to its service
including the critically acclaimed series
House of Cards in February.
The Dow rose 19.66 points, or 0.1
percent, to 14,567.17. The Standard &
Poors 500 index closed up 7.25 points,
or 0.5 percent, higher at 1,562.50.
The stock market was coming off its
biggest weekly drop since November.
Last week the S&P 500 and the Dow
each lost 2.1 percent, paring their
advances after a strong start to the year.
The news that economic growth had
slowed in China set off a plunge in com-
modity prices last Monday, leading the
stock market to its worst day of the year.
Gold fell below $1,400 an ounce for the
rst time in two years.
Caterpillar rose $2.28, or 2.8 percent,
to $82.71. The heavy equipment maker
initially fell Monday after lowering its
forecasts for full-year sales and prots
because its mining business is slowing.
The company also said it plans to
resume buying back its own stock for
the rst since 2008 with a buyback of $1
billion.

NEW YORK A sharp decline in the price
of oil this month is making gasoline cheaper
at a time of year when it typically gets more
expensive. Its a relief to motorists and busi-
ness owners and a positive development for
the economy.
Over the past three weeks, the price of oil
has fallen by 9 percent to $89 a barrel. That
has helped extend a slide in gasoline prices
that began in late February. Nationwide, aver-
age retail prices have fallen by 27 cents per
gallon, or 7 percent, since Feb. 27, to $3.52
per gallon. Analysts say pump prices could
fall another 20 cents over the next two
months.
The price of oil is being driven lower by ris-
ing global supplies and lower-than-expected
demand in the worlds two largest economies,
the United States and China. As oil and gaso-
line become more affordable, the economy
benets because goods become less expensive
to transport and motorists have more money
to spend on other things. Over the course of a
year, a decline of 10 cents per gallon trans-
lates to $13 billion in savings at the pump.
Diesel and jet fuel have also gotten cheaper
in recent weeks, which is good news for
truckers, airlines and other energy-intensive
businesses.
It makes a big difference to my bottom
line, says Mike Mitternight, owner of a heat-
ing and air conditioning service company in
Metairie, La. He has ve pickup trucks that
can burn $1,000 of gas per week when prices
are near $4 a gallon. Lately hes been paying
as little as $3.19, and saving $200 a week.
Gasoline prices typically rise in the late
winter and spring as reners shut down parts
of their plants to perform maintenance and
begin making more costly blends of gasoline
required by federal clean-air regulations. The
trend was earlier and less dramatic this year.
Pump prices only came within 15 cents of last
years peak.
Oil production is growing quickly in the
U.S. and Canada, helping boost global sup-
plies. And some of the factors that pushed
prices higher the two previous years polit-
ical turmoil in North Africa and the Middle
East and renery disruptions in the U.S.
havent materialized this spring.
At the same time, demand for fuels is grow-
ing slower than expected. China, the worlds
biggest oil importer, is experiencing slower-
than-expected economic growth. And much of
Europe is in recession.
In the U.S., wintry weather in the Midwest
and Northeast has kept more drivers off the
roads this spring, analysts say.
The typical U.S. household will spend an
estimated $326 on gasoline this April, the
equivalent of 7.8 percent of median household
income, according to Fred Rozell, an analyst
at GasBuddy.com. Thats $38 less than last
April, when households spent 8.8 percent of
their income on gas.
Its the difference between going out to
dinner one more time or not, says Diane
Swonk, chief economist at Mesirow
Financial. It matters.
The U.S. government releases its initial
estimate of economic output during the rst
three months of 2013 on Friday. Economists
forecast the economy grew at an annual rate
of 3.1 percent, compared with 0.4 percent in
the nal three months of 2012.

Reuters editor charged with hacking: I was fired
SAN FRANCISCO A Reuters deputy social media edi-
tor accused of conspiring with hackers to deface a Los
Angeles Times story says he has been
red.
Federal prosecutors say 26-year-old
Matthew Keys provided the hacking
group Anonymous with login informa-
tion to access the computer system of The
Tribune Co., the Times parent company.
According to an indictment handed up
last month, a hacker altered a Times arti-
cle posted in December 2010.
Keys had earlier been red from a

Caterpillar 1Q profit shrank; cuts 2013 outlook
MINNEAPOLIS A slowdown in the mining business is
digging a hole in Caterpillars prots.
First-quarter prot shrank 45 percent and Caterpillar has
lowered its expectations for full-year sales and prot because
its mining business is slowing. Sales of Caterpillar-branded
mining machines such as large trucks and bulldozers will
drop by half this year, the company said on Monday.
Caterpillar, based in Peoria, Ill., said mining customers
placed big orders for equipment last year, but then mining
prots fell, so now those customers are cutting back. Dealers
who would normally be stocking up on Caterpillar gear to get
ready for a busy summer instead cut inventory during the rst
quarter.
Executives said they had hoped that a slowdown in orders
from dealers in late 2012 would turn around this year.
Unfortunately, that hasnt happened, said Mike DeWalt, the
companys controller, on a conference call.

NEW YORK Flight delays piled up
across the country Monday as thousands
of air trafc controllers began taking
unpaid days off because of federal budg-
et cuts, providing the most visible
impact yet of Congress and the White
Houses failure to agree on a long-term
decit-reduction plan.
The Federal Aviation Administration
kept planes on the ground because there
werent enough controllers to monitor
busy air corridors. Cascading delays
held up flights at some of nations
busiest airports, including New York,
Baltimore and Washington. Many opera-
tions were more than two hours behind
schedule.
At one point, the delays were so bad
that passengers on several Washington-
New York shuttle ights could have
reached their destination faster by taking
the train.
Nearly a third of ights at New Yorks
LaGuardia airport scheduled to take off
before 3 p.m. were delayed 15 minutes
or more, according to ight-tracking
service FlightAware. Last Monday, just
6 percent of LaGuardias ights were
delayed.
The situation was similar at
Washingtons Reagan National
Airport, in Newark, N.J., and in
Philadelphia, with roughly 20 percent
of flights delayed.
At airports, Monday is typically one of
the busiest days, when many high-pay-
ing business travelers depart for a week
on the road. The FAAs controller cuts
a 10 percent reduction of its staff
went into effect Sunday. The full force
was not felt until Monday morning.
Travel writer Tim Leffel had just
boarded a US Airways plane from
Charlotte, N.C., to Tampa, when the
ight crew had an announcement.
They said: The weathers ne, but
there arent enough air traffic con-
trollers, Leffel said. Passengers were
asked to head back into the terminal.
People were just kind of rolling their
eyes.

SAN FRANCISCO Netixs move
to compete against traditional cable-TV
channels with original programming is
pulling in more subscribers to its Internet
video service and winning back investors
who doubted the companys ability to
cultivate distinctive entertainment.
The skepticism dissipated Monday
with the release of Netixs nancial
results for the opening three months of
the year.
The first-quarter numbers revealed
that Netix Inc. added 2 million U.S.
subscribers from January through March
hitting the top end of the target set by
the companys management. The growth
left Netix with 29.2 million U.S. sub-
scribers to an $8-per-month service that
streams movie and TV shows to
Internet-connected devices.
The company picked up another 1 mil-
lion customers in the dozens of interna-
tional markets where it streams video,
leaving Netix with 7.1 million stream-
ing subscribers outside the U.S. Even
though the international operations are
still losing money, Netix said it will
expand into an unidentied European
market during the second half of the
year.

Wongs mental toughness is key for Dons
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
When talking to an Aragon par-
ent before the start of the Peninsula
Athletic League tournament nal
in boys tennis, Dons head coach
Dave Owdom said if the trip to the
Central Coast Section was the line,
hed bet the farm on Isaac Wong.
Well, Owdom got his wish. And
it paid off for him.
It was Wong, behind a gutsy
three-set performance that pushed
the Dons over Carlmont in the PAL
nals and into the CCS playoffs as
the leagues second automatic
qualier.
I have a lot of condence in
him, Owdom said. Hes been
doing it all year.
Wong has been getting the job
T
he College of San Mateo
softball team enjoyed a
magical season in 2012.
They posted a 34-6 regular-season
record and the top seed in the
Northern California regional play-
offs only to be shocked and
knocked out in the second round.
2013 is turning out to be pretty
good as well. With one game
remaining in the
regular season,
today versus
City College of
San Francisco,
the Lady
Bulldogs are
already a game
ahead of that
pace at a 36-4
record. The
Bulldogs have
been ranked No.
1 in the state for
most of the sea-
son and their players litter the sta-
tistical leaders as theyve won
back-to-back Coast Conference
North titles. A win Tuesday over
San Francisco would also give
them their rst ever undefeated
home season since Nicole Borg
took over the coaching reins.
I think, obviously, we have a
strong foundation of sophomores
who have been through it before,
Borg said. This is a special
group.
The 2013 Bulldogs are a sopho-
more-laden team, with nine of the
13 players on the roster in their
second season with the program. A
win today would give this sopho-
more class a regular-season record
of 72-10.
Were not celebrating those
things, Borg said. Lets get
through May (and maybe win a
state title) and then celebrate.
Of those nine second-year play-
ers, six have already secured spots
at four-year schools next year to
continue their careers. The other
three have decided they no longer
want to play but, if they did, rest
assured there would be spots for
them somewhere.
The thing theyve learned in this
program is put your head down and
grind it out, Borg said. I think our
transfer rate is phenomenal.
As is usually the case with soft-
ball, pitching is the name of the
game and the Bulldogs have one of
the best in former Capuchino stand-
out Michele Pilster, who leads the
state in earned run average (1.06),
wins (26) and is fth in strikeouts
(166).
Offensively, the Bulldogs lead
the Coast Conference in overall
batting average (.373), on-base per-
centage (.426) and slugging per-
centage (.550). They are led by

Athletics drop season-high 4th straight in Boston
By Matthew Carrol
BOSTON Oaklands longest
winning streak against Boston since
1932 came to an abrupt end Monday
night.
So did A.J. Grifns string of
strong starts.
Grifn allowed a three-run homer
to Will Middlebrooks and a grand
slam to Mike Napoli as the Athletics
lost 9-6 to the Red Sox, snapping
their eight-game run over Boston
dating to last season.
The 25-year-old right-hander had
been nothing short of superb
through his rst 18 starts in the
majors, going 9-1 with a 2.90 ERA.
He was looking to join Barry Zito
and Tim Hudson as the only pitchers
in Oakland history with 10 wins in
their rst 19 career games.
The Red Sox made sure that did-
nt happen.
Grifn (2-1) was tagged for a
career-high nine runs seven
earned on eight hits, with a walk
and three strikeouts over four-plus
innings as the Oakland lost its sea-
son-high fourth straight. The As
won eight in a row in 1932, when
they were in Philadelphia.
It humbles you a little bit, he
said. Obviously not going to go out
there and be lights out every time.
It felt like I was making good
pitches, Grifn said. They were
just really aggressive right off the
bat.
Oakland manager Bob Melvin
thought Grifn may have been rush-
ing a bit, and leaving balls that are
usually around the knees a tad high-
er.
He actually got knocked around
a little bit this time, which you dont
see that often, Melvin said. I dont

When people retell the story of
the 2013 Peninsula Athletic League
boys tennis tournament, theyll talk
about the Battle on Court 5.
For more than 140 minutes in the
hot Belmont sun, Aragons Isaac
Wong and Carlmonts Vrain Ahuja
were locked in a test of will for the
right to take their teams to the
Central Coast Section playoffs.
And with a ball into the net and a
roar atypical of Wongs quiet per-
sona, it was Aragons No. 2 singles
player and team captain that pro-
pelled the Dons to CCS and the PAL
tournament title 4-3.
Wongs win capped off what
Aragon head coach Dave Owdom
called a classic match in which his
Dons overcame a 3-0 decit to beat
the same Scots team that took them
down 7-0 just before the PAL tour-
nament began.
Our guys didnt play as well (last
week) and today our guys played up
to their level and thats always a
good match, Owdom said. We talk
more about mental toughness. You
just cant quit, you cant give up,
you have to keep on going. And
thats part of sports.
Things can happen, said
Carlmont head coach Amina Doar
Halsey. Thats the nature of this
sport. Things happen. Some times
players play well, some times they
play poorly. And not even poorly, I
dont think any of them played
poorly today. They just were off and
that happens. Its OK.
Carlmont was one win away, in
fact, one set away, from having the
headline read completely different.
The Scots jumped out to a quick 3-0
lead behind another dominant Corey
Pang performance a little over an
hour into the match. Pang was fol-
lowed by Theo Fedronic at No. 4
singles, who won 6-2, 6-2. And not
too long after that, No. 3 doubles
Alex Yang and Calvin Tzeng won 6-
3, 6-2.
But not so fast, Carlmont.
Fabio Gallardo and Alex Ilyin
pulled off a 6-2, 6-3 win in No. 2
doubles to get Aragon on the board.
That was followed by a gigantic,

SANTA CLARA With 13 draft
picks, Trent Baalke has built quite
the board of potential players. A
board that is well prepped but could
change quickly as the draft unfolds.
The San Francisco 49ers general
manager has already fielded his
share of calls from teams trying to
boost their chances by acquiring
some of those
selections from
the NFC cham-
pions.
Its up to us
to turn those 13
picks into quali-
ty picks,
Baalke said.
Certainly the
more darts you
have the more balloons you can
pop.
The media-shy Baalke isnt tip-
ping his hand much as to what he
might do, though he is always open-
minded.
Could San Francisco take a quar-
terback? Maybe so, maybe not.
How about a safety? Sure.
Youre not going to get a straight
answer from me, said Baalke, who
prefers to let coach Jim Harbaugh
serve as the face of the franchise.
Its possible that we could draft
any position. Were not opposed to
draft any position. Ive always
maintained theres good players at
every position. Its our job to nd
them. We treat the seventh round the
same way we treat the rst round.
San Francisco, which lost 34-31
to the Baltimore Ravens in the
Super Bowl on Feb. 3 in New
Orleans, has its rst pick at No. 31
Thursday night near the end of the
rst round.
The 49ers are still looking for the
person to ll the huge void left by
free safety Dashon Goldsons depar-
ture for Tampa Bay at the start of
free agency. Perhaps a tight end,
too, after Delanie Walker signed
with Tennessee. Bolstering the
defensive line could be another
emphasis.
One player in the potential pool is
Stanford tight end Zach Ertz, who
attended the 49ers pro day last
week.
Theres a pool of players that I
would think that many around the
league have similar value on. That
pool is large, Baalke said. Could
you get the same player at No. 39 or
No. 45 that youre going to get at
No. 20? Thats certainly a possibili-
ty.
San Francisco also made 13 picks
in 1986, helping set up its roster for
the next two Super Bowl champi-
onships in 1988 and 89.
From the moment the 49ers lost
the Super Bowl in February, players
vowed to return and take the next
step: winning a sixth championship
for the storied franchise.
Theres a lot of variables in this
years draft, probably more so than
in any drafts Ive been part of,
Baalke said. Weve got a pool of
players but you dont know if peo-
ple are going to move up. Theres a
lot of value in the draft, more so
than just top-tier guys. Theres a tal-
ented pool of players, probably a
larger pool but not as many clear-cut
guys.
While this team already has a
deep and talented lineup on both
sides of the ball after last seasons
special run, Baalke is thinking
beyond 2013 and if some players
picked make an immediate impact
this season, thats a bonus.
If Baalkes track record is an
example, San Francisco will make
the most of its picks.
In his rst draft in charge, 2010,
Baalke selected right tackle
Anthony Davis with the 11th overall
pick and left guard Mike Iupati at
No. 17 and each offensive line-
man has started every game for a
much-improved unit.
That group played a big part in
making Colin Kaepernicks transi-
tion a seamless one when he took
over as quarterback in November
from Alex Smith, the 2005 No. 1
overall draft pick who was traded
last month to the Kansas City Chiefs
following Kaepernicks speedy
emergence. Kaepernick was drafted
in the second round in 2011.
While Kaepernick is focused on
his own offseason training with the
teammates he knows, everybody is
eager to see how he performs for a
full season under center, and how
Baalke continues to build a team
around him for the long haul start-
ing with this draft.
We have great players right now,
so Im going to leave that up to the
front office, Kaepernick said.
Were just going to work with the
players we have
right now and
make sure that
were ready.
With the
st rong-armed,
s p e e d y
K a e p e r n i c k
leading the way,
the 49ers are
counting on
remaining a reg-
ular contender. They ended a fran-
chise-worst eight-year stretch with-
out a playoff berth or winning
record in Harbaughs rst season in
2011 then topped that by reach-
ing Februarys Super Bowl.
From Baalkes perspective, work-
ing ahead to build a roster for years
down the road starts with a draft like
this one considering the 49ers have
so many options with 13 selections.
Were in that stage where were
trying to stay ahead of the game
from a picks standpoint, he said.
Youd rather not draft to need.
Youd rather draft prior to need. The
teams that have been successful are
not drafting to need on that specic
year.

MOCK DRAFT FOR SELECT TEAMS
1. KANSAS CITY (2-14)
The Chiefs already have their quarterback not
that it is worth taking one at the top this year
and a good running game. The guy who could
be the cornerstone for the entire offense,as well
as QB Alex Smiths protector for next few years,
plays left tackle.

BOSTON Josh Reddick and
Brandon Moss of the Oakland
Athletics visited an 11-year old boy
Monday who was injured a week
ago in the bombings at the Boston
Marathon.
Moss and Reddick, who both pre-
viously played for the Red Sox, are
in town for the start of a three-game
series Monday night against the Red
Sox.
They spent
time at Bostons
C h i l d r e n s
Hospital, visit-
ing Aaron Hern,
who is from the
Oakland area,
and had his left
leg hit by shrap-
nel in the bomb-
ings.
It was awe-
some, Reddick said after a 9-6 loss
to the Red Sox. Just to meet a fam-
ily from the California area who had
been through just as much as this
whole city has, and to just brighten
up their day and kind of get their
minds off of what happened the
whole week and forget where
theyre at for a few hours. It was big.
And you could see the kids face
light up, and even the parents faces
light up. For us to be able to get
them out of that hospital scene for a
while, it was a good sign.
Oakland manager Bob Melvin
talked about how the two players
were glad they went and were emo-
tional from the visit.
I (spoke) with Mossie a little
bit, Melvin said in the dugout,
while the players were stretching
prior to the game.
He said that he was very glad and
it was a very touching moment, and
that the perspective that you get
when youre
there talking to
someone thats
been involved
as opposed to
coming out here
and losing a
baseball game,
its pretty
insignificant
they were glad
to do it and
theyre probably better for it, too.
Melvin also discussed how it was
when the team was making its way
to the hotel Sunday night.
It was a pretty eerie feeling last
night driving up, Melvin said. You
look down Boylston Street and its
still closed, with all the TV trucks
and satellite trucks still in the area.
You can only imagine what it was
like at that time.

SAN FRANCISCO Brandon
Belt hit a game-
ending single to
left-center with
one out in the
ninth, Buster
Posey tied it
with a two-run
homer in the
eighth, and the
San Francisco
Giants rallied to
beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 5-4
on Monday night for their seventh
straight home victory.
Poseys drive to straightaway cen-
ter was his second homer of the year
and in two days.
Belts first career walkoff hit
came against Tony Sipp (1-1), who
allowed a leadoff single to Andres
Torres. Brandon Crawford sacri-
ced him to second.
Jose Mijares struck out two in the
ninth before yielding Cliff
Penningtons double. Closer Sergio
Romo (1-1) relieved in a double
switch as Belt entered at rst base.
Romo retired pinch-hitter Eric
Hinske on a rst-pitch grounder.
Belt delivered hours after manag-
er Bruce Bochy and hitting coaches
Hensley Meulens and Joe Lefebvre
met with him during batting prac-
tice and urged the struggling rst
baseman to slow his body move-
ments down. Joaquin Arias started
in his place.
Arizona played its third straight
one-run game.
Cody Ross hit a two-run single
against the team he helped win the
2010 World Series and pitcher Wade
Miley hit a towering, tiebreaking
drive for his rst career home run.
Another dramatic win for Giants
expect him to carry this into his next
start.
The Red Sox, swept by Kansas
City in a split-doubleheader Sunday,
scored three runs in the fourth and
ve in the fth. Napolis fourth
career slam keyed the ve-run fth.
Felix Doubront (2-0) struggled
with his control, but got the win on
a night with wind chills in the 30s.
He allowed three runs on three hits,
walking ve. He also threw two
wild pitches and struck out eight in
6 2-3 innings.
Dustin Pedroia went 0 for 5, end-
ing his streak of reaching base safe-
ly in each of Bostons first 18
games.
Trailing 2-1 in the fourth, the Red
Sox jumped in front when the
slumping Middlebrooks belted his
homer. Napoli was hit by a pitch
and Daniel Nava doubled down the
left eld line before Middlebrooks,
just 4 for his last 43 since hitting
three homers in Toronto on April 7,
homered into the Green Monster
seats.
Grifn called the 2-0 cutter to
Middlebrooks the worst pitch of
the game.
Just trying to get back in the
count and he tagged that one pretty
good, he said.
Chris Youngs sacrice y cut it to
4-3 in the fth, but the Athletics left
the bases loaded. Boston then broke
it open with Napolis slam.
Shane Victorino singled leading
off and Pedroia reached on a eld-
ers choice. Second baseman Andy
Parrino dropped a throw at second
trying to get a force on the play.
David Ortiz then walked before
Napoli hit an 0-1 pitch into the rst
row of Monster seats into deep left-
center. Jarrod Saltalamacchia added
an RBI double off reliever Chris
Resop, making it 9-3.
The one Napoli hit, he went
down and got it, Grifn said. Just
kind of got to tip your cap to him on
that. Thats a good piece of hitting
right there.
The Athletics made it interesting
in the eighth, scoring three runs off
reliever Clayton Mortensen two
on a double by Josh Donaldson and
the other on Josh Reddicks RBI
double before Junichi Tazawa
escaped a two-on, one-out jam.
Andrew Bailey worked the ninth for
his fourth save.
I do like the way we battled back
after it looked like we had no
chance, Melvin said.

Brandon Belt
monumental 0-6, 6-2, 6-1 win in
No. 1 doubles win by Matthew
Fowler and Landers Ngirchement,
whos arguably been the team MVP
as of late for Aragon. Somehow the
Dons No. 1 doubles fought past a
6-0 loss in set one and that momen-
tum was raised when Rahul Joshi
avenged an earlier loss to the tough
Matt Soriano.
And just like that, the spotlight
was set on Court 5 and both players
did not disappoint putting
together a 10-8, third set battle for
the ages.
Both the players have great will
power, Owdom said. They both
want to win. They had great shots.
[Vrain] had a big serve. Isaac was
doing everything he could to get a
return in. I couldnt believe how
many returns he got back. To come
back against that guy was a big
achievement. The way [Vrain]
played, too bad there has to be a
loser because theyre both very
good players.
Hes a class-act, Doar Halsey
said of Ahuja. Hes a kind person
who doesnt offend anybody. He
kept it together and he played his
absolute best. He came up short
today, but thats OK. Hes a tourna-
ment player, so hes good in pres-
sure situations and that showed
today.
There are no guarantees espe-
cially against a team like Aragon,
Doar Halsey said about her teams
once 3-0 lead. There are no guar-
entees. Both teams have strong
players, competitive. Its a good
way to watch them play.
Im really proud of my team-
mates, Wong said. So, my team-
mates really stepped it up big time.
Im really proud of them.
Aragon joined regular season
champion Menlo-Atherton as the
two automatic qualiers for CCS.
done exceptionally well from the
No. 2 singles spot as of late.
Following a three-set loss to the
same Vrain Ahuja he defeated on
Monday to win the PAL tournament
for the Dons, Wong has reeled off
wins against Harker, Woodside and
a 2-0 victory over a tough Matt
Miller of Burlingame in the rst
round of the tournament.
For his efforts, Wong is the San
Mateo Daily Journal Athlete of the
Week.
It was unreal, Wong said of his
win against Ahuja, a player who
beat him in three sets in the not-so-
distant past. There was a lot of
pressure coming on. I tried to focus.
The match was for CCS. Its what
every kid dreams of playing for. If
you win the match, you win the PAL
title, so it was unreal.
Hes sort of a quiet leader,
Owdom said. But he never gives
up, hes always positive. He doesnt
let things get to him. He may get
frustrated, but he overcomes it. And
thats what you have to do and
its like that in any sport. Hes one
of the best at composing himself.
He needed that composure on
Monday. After taking the rst set 6-
3, Ahuja proved just how good of a
player he was by storming back and
equalizing with a 6-3 win of this
own.
From there, it was a battle of will.
Ahuja had match point on three
occassions, only to see Wong will
his way back again and again.
It was in complete contrast to
Wongs 2-0 win over Miller to start
the PAL tournament.
I just tried to keep the momentum
going, Wong said when asked to
talk about his match against Miller.
I tried to stay aggressive and
focused.
It took all of Wongs focus against a
nasty Ahuja serve. There were times
when it was obvious Wong was just
trying to survive and live to play
another stroke. On Monday, that
tenacity paid off.
It was back and forth and it could
have gone either way, but I just tried
to stay focused, tried to keep the
pressure off myself by moving my
feet and keeping the ball in play, not
making stupid mistakes and I think
that worked for me, Wong said.
And it worked for Aragon, who was
down 3-0 against Carlmont, feeding
off of Wongs gutsy play and battled
back.

All those wins and all those stats will mean little if
CSM does not make some significant noise in the play-
offs. Borg said the goal is always to win the conference
championship and then, hopefully, advance out of the
regional tournament to the state tournament.
Thats a great goal to have, a state title. I wouldnt be
happy to just get there, Borg said. None of my teams
have ever made the state tournament.
Borg believes last years experience should serve the
Bulldogs well this season. Last season, after clinching the
Coast Conference title, the Bulldogs dropped their season
finale to rival Ohlone-Fremont. They have already grown
in that regard. After clinching the conference champi-
onship this year, they went on to beat Ohlone.
There is a bit of maturity that has happened (from last
year to this year), Borg said. Because the expectations
are so high for our coaching staff and our athletes, those
(kind of) wins are great. They help us with our overall
seeding.
I always tell my girls, we cant celebrate right now.
This is just a small step in the right direction. Were going
to finish as strong as we can and build momentum going
into the playoffs. Thats where we want to be. We want to
be on that upward swing. We want to get hot and stay hot.
We want to beat everyone who comes to play us.

Curry, Warriors move on in series without Lee
REUTERS
David Lee drives to the hoop during Game 1 of the NBA
Western Conference playoffs.Lee will miss the rest of the series
with a hip injury.
By Pat Graham
DENVER Stephen Curry laced up
his shoes before practice without so
much as a soul around him.
As soon as the Golden State guard was
ready to step onto the Pepsi Center oor,
he was swarmed by a pack of reporters.
These days, Currys never left open on
the court.
The Denver Nuggets certainly dont
plan on giving
Curry much
breathing room in
Game 2 on
Tuesday night.
They know like
the whole league
knows just how
dangerous Curry is
with an open look
at the rim.
Granted, Curry didnt exactly have a
Stephen Curry type performance on
Saturday, hitting just 7 of 20 shots dur-
ing a 97-95 loss to open the best-of-
seven playoff series. But with David Lee
gone for the postseason because of a torn
right hip exor, the Warriors are count-
ing on even more from Curry.
Hes counting on even more from him-
self, too. Curry cant afford another slow
start like in Game 1, when he missed his
opening nine shots.
Curry did rediscover his touch in the
second half, scoring 15 of his 19 points.
Hopefully, that rhythm I built in the
second half will build for the rest of the
series, Curry said after practice
Monday. Im not worried about that
cold start coming back anytime soon.
He will see plenty of different looks as
the Nuggets constantly rotate fresh
defenders on him. Ty Lawson did most
of the chasing when it came to Curry,
along with Andre Iguodala, Wilson
Chandler and rookie Evan Fournier.
Basically, Curry never had a moments
peace when he was on the oor nor
will he. The Nuggets even blitzed the
Warriors pick-and-roll plays, just to dis-
rupt Currys timing.
I expect the same, Curry said with a
shrug. Make some adjustments on our
end to try to go back at that.
No Lee in the lineup has Nuggets
coach George Karl a little on edge. Hes
not sure how the Warriors are going to
make up for missing their All-Star power
forward, but he knows Curry could play
a big role. When Lee sat out at New York
on Feb. 27, Curry erupted for 54 points
against the Knicks.
Incredibly scary, because Curry was
fantastic, Karl said.
Golden State coach Mark Jackson was
coy when asked about who may start in
Lees place. Jackson might go with Carl
Landry or Draymond Green. Or he
might choose to play veteran Richard
Jefferson.
Another option is to go with a smaller
lineup and use guard Jarrett Jack. Thats
the plan Jack is hoping for, vowing to
work on his low-post moves just in case.
Im a Jack-of-all-trades kind of guy,
said Jack, who wound up third Monday
in the voting for the NBAs Sixth Man of
the Year, with the award going to J.R.
Smith of the New York Knicks. Power
forward is denitely in my repertoire. I
dont know what took (coach) so long to
put me down here in the rst place. If he
calls on me to do it, Ill be ready.
Regardless of who lines up at power
forward, Lawson expects Klay
Thompson and Curry to see more shots.
Thompson had a team-high 22 points in
the opening game of the series.
A lot more focus on them and trying
to slow them down, Lawson said.
Especially on Curry, whos hard to
stop once he nds his rhythm. Hes also
hard to keep up with, as Lawson found
out on Saturday. The Nuggets point
guard was all over Curry in the corner
and yet Curry still drained a game-tying
3-pointer with 14.5 seconds remaining,
setting the stage for Andre Millers
game-winning layup.
Just try to keep fresh legs on him,
Lawson said of stopping Curry.
Because the same person chasing him
the whole game might get tired.
The Nuggets will have some fresh legs
returning to the lineup as Kenneth Faried
expects to play after sitting out the rst
game with a sprained left ankle. The
player nicknamed Manimal provides
an energy boost.
Hes an all-effort guy, center
Andrew Bogut said. Its not like theyre
going to throw the ball into the post and
let him get a one-on-one. Thats not his
strength. His strength is offensive
rebounds, hustle points, loose balls. Hes
one of the best in the league in doing
that.
To limit his production, you have to
go out of your comfort zone, energy-
wise, to match his intensity.
On Saturday, Bogut was back from a
bone bruise on his surgically repaired
left ankle and contributed nine points, 14
boards, three assists, four blocks and a
steal.
So, is he 100 percent healthy again?
Im not going to put a number on it,
not going to say Im healthy or not
healthy, Bogut said. Its an out if I play
bad. All of a sudden, its a hero story if I
play well. ... Im here playing in the
playoffs.
And hoping to help the Warriors cap-
ture a game in Denver, before the series
shifts back to Golden State.
Were not going to panic, Jackson
said. We thought we were good enough
to win Game 1. They made plays, they
made the biggest play.

WHATS ON TAP
PASADENA With the how and
when of college football playoffs
determined, its time to lock in the
where.
The conference commissioners in
charge of putting together the four-
team playoff system that will start
after the 2014 regular season will
meet starting Tuesday in Pasadena,
Calif.
At the top of their agenda: Pick
three more bowls to be used in the
seminal rotation and decide on a
site for the rst national champi-
onship game. The Rose, Sugar and
Orange bowls are already part of the
six-bowl seminal rotation.
It will be another big step, BCS
executive director Bill Hancock said
recently.
True, though all signs point
toward these big steps being fore-
gone conclusions.
The Fiesta, Cotton and Chick-l-
A bowls are the overwhelming
favorites to be chosen for the play-
off rotation, and have been for a
while.
So much so that only one other
bowl the Holiday Bowl in San
Diego even put in a bid to be part
of the system that will replace the
Bowl Championship Series.
Sites to be settled for college football playoff

HAIRCUT (reg.$14)
Doctors: All Boston bomb patients likely to live
By Marilynn Marchione
BOSTON In a glimmer of good news after last weeks
tragedy, all of the more than 180 people injured in the Boston
Marathon blasts who made it to a hospital alive now seem like-
ly to survive.
That includes several people who arrived with legs attached
by just a little skin, a 3-year-old boy with a head wound and
bleeding on the brain, and a little girl riddled with nails. Even
a transit system police ofcer whose heart had stopped and
was close to bleeding to death after a shootout with the sus-
pects now appears headed for recovery.
All I feel is joy, said Dr. George Velmahos, chief of trau-
ma surgery at Massachusetts General Hospital, referring to his
hospitals 31 blast patients. Whoever came in alive, stayed
alive.
Three people did die in the blasts, but at the scene, before
hospitals even had a chance to try to save them. A
Massachusetts Institute of Technology police ofcer who
police say was fatally shot Thursday by the suspects was pro-
nounced dead when he arrived at Massachusetts General.
The only person to reach a hospital alive and then die was
one of the suspected bombers 26-year-old Tamerlan
Tsarnaev.
But the remarkable, universal survival one week later of all
others injured in the blasts is a testimonial to fast care at the
scene, on the way to hospitals, then in emergency and operat-
ing rooms. Everyone played a part, from doctors, nurses and
paramedics to strangers who took off belts to use as tourni-
quets and staunched bleeding with their bare hands.
As of Monday, 51 people remained hospitalized, three of
them in critical condition and ve listed as serious. At least 14
people lost all or part of a limb; three of them lost more than
one.
Two children with leg injuries remain hospitalized at Boston
Childrens Hospital. A 7-year-old girl is in critical condition
and 11-year-old Aaron Hern of Martinez, Calif., is in fair con-
dition.
The surviving bombing suspect, 19-year-old Dzhokhar
Tsarnaev, is in serious condition at Beth Israel Deaconess
Medical Center with a neck wound.
Our training, our practicing, went a long way to minimiz-
ing chaos so that hospitals and emergency responders worked
effectively to treat the many wounded, said Dr. William
Mackey, surgery chief at Tufts Medical Center.
Trauma care is optimism translated into action, said Dr.
Russell Nauta, chairman of surgery at Mount Auburn Hospital
in Cambridge, Mass., where the wounded transit police ofcer,
Richard Donohue, remains in stable but critical condition.
Doctors and emergency responders approach each patient as
someone who can be saved regardless of how severe the
injuries appear.

And some were very bad.
The legs came hanging on muscles and skin, said
Velmahos, who did three of the four initial amputations at
Massachusetts General in the early hours after the bombing. A
fth patient at the hospital had to have an amputation Thursday.
Doctors had judged there was a 5 percent chance the womans
leg could be saved, so they didnt amputate right away.
We restored the blood supply to the leg, but all the muscles
and nerves were destroyed, so the leg had to be removed, he
explained.
Of the remaining ve patients at the hospital with severe leg
injuries, Im very condent that they will all keep their legs,
and even more, that they will have functional legs, he said.
Although doctors are optimistic, some patients still have life-
threatening wounds. Complications can range from blood clots
to infections. A few still have injuries that could require ampu-
tation, said Dr. Michael Yaffe, a trauma surgeon at Beth Israel.
We have to see how these are going to heal over the next
few weeks, he said. Blood supply is key ... The two biggest
enemies we will face in the next two weeks are maintaining a
good blood supply and preventing infection.
So far, the progress has been in the right direction.
Every day theyre a little better, Yaffe said. A lot of them
have a long road of recovery ahead.
BOSTON
the island and renovation advocates said
yesterday it is a signicant milestone for
those who worked tirelessly for its return
to before the marsh area was drained for
hay farming.
It was thrilling, said Florence
LaRiviere, a longtime environmentalist
who helped create and expand the Don
Edwards San Francisco Bay National
Wildlife Refuge including the Bair
Island Ecological Reserve, of her rst
steps through the gate onto the bridge.
The water around Inner Bair Island
was still aside from ocks of birds
but lots of oohs and plenty of aahs joined
them in the air as a small crowd armed
with binoculars, cameras and palpable
enthusiasm stepped on a now-open pub-
lic trail for the rst time since the 2007
closure. The remaining restoration of
Bair Island, complete with public trials,
viewing platforms and interpretive dis-
plays, is anticipated for later this year or
early 2014. The renovation will also
include upgraded parking with rest room
facilities to allow school buses to park
for eld trips.
But yesterday, the focus was on the
small section of Bair Island just past the
bridge known as Area D and also on the
effort of dedicated citizens like
LaRiviere and Ralph and Carolyn
Nobles to spare Bair Island from devel-
opment. The Friends of Redwood City
fought against the 1982 proposal by
Mobil Oil to build 20,000 homes, a
shopping center and ofce complex on
the island. A voter referendum over-
turned the Redwood City Councils
approval by only 42 votes out of nearly
18,000 cast but their work was not done.
Seven years later, the land was sold
leading to new development worries
until the Peninsula Open Space Trust
purchased it for $15 million for addition
to the refuge.
Its hard to imagine youll be suc-
cessful, LaRiviere said of her feelings
at the beginning of the effort.
Just as the task to approve renovation
was huge, the actual work is no small
feat, either. Approximately 1.5 million
cubic feet of soil was trucked in to serve
as the plants foundation and raise the
elevation 2 feet. Some of the inll was
trucked in from other projects, like
Hetch Hetchy and the Port of Redwood
City, which saved money in the multi-
million dollar undertaking.
When done, the entire hydrology of
the area will have shifted and birds long
gone will return, said Refuge Manager
Eric Mruz.
The existing dredge material is too
salty for most plants so testing is under-
way to establish the best way of restor-
ing the pH balance.
With climate change and rising tides,
the window to restore wetlands is now,
said Doug Cordell, spokesman for the
refuge complex which is managed by the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
Its imperative we take advantage of
it, he said.
The project benets everyone, even
those who dont visit Bair Island,
because the renovation improves water
quality, helps stave off ooding and the
recreation opportunities provide eco-
nomic benets, Cordell said.

BEIJING Theres no evidence a new bird
u strain is spreading easily among people in
China even though there may be sporadic
cases of the virus spreading to people who
have close contacts with patients, the World
Health Organization said Friday.
Fifteen global and Chinese health experts
are on a mission in Beijing and Shanghai to
learn more about the H7N9 bird u virus that
has killed 17 people and sickened 70 others,
said Dr. Michael OLeary, head of WHOs
ofce in China.
OLeary says a major focus is to learn how
the virus infects humans. The evidence sug-
gests still that poultry is a vehicle for trans-
mission but epidemiologists havent yet been
able to establish a clear and strong link,
OLeary told reporters in Beijing.
The source of the virus remains unclear
because only a handful of birds out of tens
of thousands that have been tested have
been found to carry the H7N9 virus. Also,
many of the patients have no reported history
of contact with birds.
Still, Chinese health and agricultural author-
ities have closed live poultry markets and
slaughtered birds as preventive measures
based on suspicion that sick people had con-
tact with infected fowl.
On Thursday, the State Forestry
Administration said wild bird sales have been
suspended to prevent the spread of the virus.
The team of WHO, Chinese and global
experts will also study a few clusters of con-
firmed and potential infections that have
emerged in the past three weeks, OLeary
said.
OLeary maintained that there has been no
evidence of sustained human-to-human trans-
mission but that it remained unclear how in a
few cases, caregivers or neighbors of patients
have also become ill.
Even within the rare and isolated examples
of potential clusters it is hard to determine if
one person got it from another or if they were
all exposed to the same source of infection, he
said.
This week, Chinese health authorities con-
rmed that a son of an 87-year-old man in
Shanghai who was the earliest known H7N9
case was also infected with the virus. The man
had fallen sick in mid-February and died in
early March.

spreading easily in humans

WASHINGTON Rejecting the Medicaid
expansion in the federal health care law could
have unexpected consequences for states where
Republican lawmakers remain steadfastly
opposed to what they scorn as Obamacare.
It could mean exposing businesses to Internal
Revenue Service penalties and leaving low-
income citizens unable to afford coverage even
as legal immigrants get nancial aid for their
premiums. For the poorest people, it could vir-
tually guarantee they remain uninsured and
dependent on the emergency room at local hos-
pitals that already face federal cutbacks.
Concern about such consequences helped
forge a deal in Arkansas last week. The
Republican-controlled Legislature endorsed a
plan by Democratic Gov. Mike Beebe to accept
additional Medicaid money under the federal
law, but use the new dollars to buy private
insurance for eligible residents.
One of the main arguments for the private
option was that it would help businesses avoid
tax penalties.
The Obama administration hasnt signed off
on the Arkansas deal, and its unclear how
many other states will use it as a model. But it
reects a pragmatic streak in American politics
thats still the exception in the polarized health
care debate.
The biggest lesson out of Arkansas is not so
much the exact structure of what they are
doing, said Alan Weil, executive director of the
nonpartisan National Academy for State Health
Policy. Part of it is just a message of creativi-
ty, that they can look at it and say, How can we
do this in a way that works for us?
About half the nearly 30 million uninsured
people expected to gain coverage under
President Barack Obamas health care overhaul
would do so through Medicaid. Its expansion
would cover low-income people making up to
138 percent of the federal poverty level, about
$15,860 for an individual.
Middle-class people who dont have cover-
age at their jobs will be able to purchase private
insurance in new state markets, helped by new
federal tax credits. The big push to sign up the
uninsured starts this fall, and coverage takes
effect Jan. 1.
As originally written, the Affordable Care
Act required states to accept the Medicaid
expansion as a condition of staying in the pro-
gram. Last summers Supreme Court decision
gave each state the right to decide. While that
pleased many governors, it also created compli-
cations by opening the door to unintended con-
sequences.
So far, 20 mostly blue states, plus the District
of Columbia, have accepted the expansion.
Thirteen GOP-led states have declined. They
say Medicaid already is too costly, and they
dont trust Washington to keep its promise of
generous funding for the expansion, which
would mainly help low-income adults with no
children at home.
Concerns about unintended consequences
could make the most difference in 17 states still
weighing options.

Arkansas is not so much the exact

boards overall process to allocate the
Measure A funds which has been broken
into multiple pieces over the span of sev-
eral meetings the next few months. Final
approval wont be given until after all
the presentations have been made but
Tuesdays consideration is a major step.
The recommendation calls for
$1,766,208 in Measure A funds in scal
year 2013-14 for seven new positions,
associated operations costs and the
highest priority maintenance work.
The next scal years budget recommen-
dations will be based on the parks oper-
ations plan prepared by the yet-to-be
named parks department director. The
board is also asking for up to $3.5 mil-
lion for capital projects. Altogether,
Maltbies proposal calls for $5,266,208.
A signicant piece of the plan is extri-
cating parks operations from Public
Works which absorbed it in 2011 as a
cost-saving measure when former parks
director Dave Holland moved to an
assistant county manager position. The
plan calls for reestablishing parks as its
own agency with a director and execu-
tive secretary.
Supervisor Adrienne Tissier backs the
idea of splitting the two functions.
Parks is very different from Public
Works and ends up feeling very bureau-
cratic when it needs to be more exible
and mobile, she said.
She doesnt second-guess the earlier
budget move but said as time progressed
it became apparent that the merge didnt
appear to be a good t.
Fellow Supervisor Carole Groom
agreed that while Public Works Director
Jim Porter has done a yeomans job
with parks, the function really needs its
own director.
The parks plan also calls for two
rangers and a natural resource manager
to support operations improvements and
maintenance work and two rangers for
the new Devils Slide park that will
replace the former road with trails for
pedestrians and bicyclists.
Staffing and maintaining the new
Devils Slide park should be at the bot-
tom of the priority list below issues like
deferred maintenance but it must be
done for the safety of those using it,
Tissier said.
The overall goal of Measure A funds is
not to replace everything that has been
cut in the past but, using the strategic
plan a as a guide, evaluate the options,
Groom said.
She also wants to discuss passive ver-
sus active parks, such as those with only
trails and open space compared to those
with campsites and other interactive
components, because each have different
needs, she said.
This is a very good rst start, Groom
said.
The Board of Supervisors meets 9 a.m.
Tuesday, April 23 in Board Chambers,
400 County Government Center,
Redwood City.

Witherspoon embarrassed
by arrest; hearing reset
ATLANTA A court hearing on a dis-
orderly conduct charge has been resched-
uled for actress Reese Witherspoon, who
said she is deeply embarrassed by what
she said to a state trooper during a trafc
stop in Atlanta.
Witherspoons case was scheduled for a
Monday morning hearing, but it was reset
for May 22. She was arrested Friday.
The Oscar-winning actress released a
statement late Sunday apologizing for her
behavior when her husband, Hollywood
agent Jim Toth, was arrested and accused
of driving under the
inuence of alcohol.
Toth also had a hear-
ing set for Monday,
but it was rescheduled
for May 23.
The actress didnt
appear in court. She
was in New York on
Sunday night attend-
ing the premiere of
her new movie
Mud. She posed for cameras on the red
carpet but did not stop to talk to reporters.
Do you know my name? Witherspoon
is quoted as saying in a state troopers
report of the early Friday incident. She
also said: Youre about to nd out who I
am and Youre about to be on national
news, according to the report.
I clearly had one drink too many and I
am deeply embarrassed about the things I
said, Witherspoon said. It was denitely
a scary situation and I was frightened for
my husband, but that is no excuse. I was
disrespectful to the ofcer who was just
doing his job. The words I used that night
denitely do not reect who I am. I have
nothing but respect for the police and Im
very sorry for my behavior.
MONEY
residential, about 57 percent, while only
10 percent of the citys roads are arteri-
al, however.
Currently, there is an estimated $27.2
million deferred maintenance backlog to
bring Belmont streets into the good
condition, according to the staff report.
Feierbach wonders whether Belmont
residents will want to tax themselves to
improve the citys roads.
We need to ask residents what they
want, she said. An advisory measure on
the ballot could help the city gure out
how to proceed, Feierbach said.
The city only funds pavement preser-
vation at $360,000 a year. At that current
level, in ve years, the overall condition
of Belmont streets will fall from at-
risk to poor which means the
pavement surface has failed and requires
reconstruction. The deferred mainte-
nance price tag will increase from $27.2
million to $44.8 million by 2017 if the
city keeps its current funding levels
intact. To x up all 70 miles of Belmont
streets, it will cost an estimated $108
million.
Only Woodside and East Palo Alto
rank lower than Belmont in San Mateo
County for the condition of its roads.
Foster City, however, ranks near the
top.
The MTC requires cities to develop a
pavement management program plan as
a condition of state grant eligibility.
Because major repairs cost ve to 10
times more than routine maintenance,
streets in the fair range are at an espe-
cially critical stage, according to the
MTC.

where they found Padgett shot in the
head. She was pronounced dead at the
scene, according to police.
The husband, 69, is in critical condi-
tion after suffering a gunshot wound to
the head, Redwood City police told the
Daily Journal. Online records list her
husband as John Padgett.
Sandra Padgett was the longtime
director of college counseling at The
Harker School in San Jose, according to
the school.
Sandy was not only a founding mem-
ber of the upper school faculty but also
founding director of the College
Counseling Program. Throughout her
long career in independent education,
she guided countless students through
the college counseling process and she
was known for her deep knowledge of
college counseling as well as her affec-
tion for the students, according to a
message sent out by the school.

teo County, State of California, will sell
on 05/14/2013 at 1:00PM, San Mateo
Events Center, 2495 S. Delaware Street,
San Mateo, CA 94403 at public auction,
to the highest bidder for cash or check as
described below, payable in full at time of
sale, all right, title, and interest conveyed
to and now held by it under said Deed of
Trust, in the property situated in said
County and State and as more fully de-
scribed in the above referenced Deed of
Trust. The street address and other
common designation, if any, of the real
property described above is purported to
be: 715 FOOTHILL DRIVE, SAN MA-
TEO, CA, 944023319. The undersigned
Trustee disclaims any liability for any in-
correctness of the street address and
other common designation, if any, shown
herein. The total amount of the unpaid
balance with interest thereon of the obli-
gation secured by the property to be sold
plus reasonable estimated costs, ex-
penses and advances at the time of the
initial publication of the Notice of Sale is

tion to cash, the Trustee will accept
cashier's checks drawn on a state or na-
tional bank, a check drawn by a state or
federal credit union, or a check drawn by
a state or federal savings and loan asso-

under, with interest as provided, and the
unpaid principal of the Note secured by
said Deed of Trust with interest thereon
as provided in said Note, plus fees,
charges and expenses of the Trustee
and of the trusts created by said Deed of
Trust. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BID-
DERS If you are considering bidding on
this property lien, you should understand
that there are risks involved in bidding at
a trustee auction. You will be bidding on
a lien, not on a property itself. Placing
the highest bid at a trustee auction does
not automatically entitle you to free and
clear ownership of the property. You
should also be aware that the lien being
auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you
are the highest bidder at the auction, you
are or may be responsible for paying off
all liens senior to the lien being auctioned
off, before you can receive clear title to
the property. You are encouraged to in-
vestigate the existence, priority, and size
of outstanding liens that may exist on this
property by contacting the county record-
er's office or a title insurance company,
either of which may charge you a fee for
this information. If you consult either of
these resources, you should be aware
that the lender may hold more than one
mortgage or deed of trust on the proper-
ty. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER
The sale date shown on this notice of
sale may be postponed one or more
times by the mortgagee, beneficiary,
trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section
2924g of the California Civil Code. The
law requires that information about trust-
ee sale postponements be made availa-
ble to you and to the public, as a courte-
sy to those not present at the sale. If you
wish to learn whether your sale date has
been postponed, and, if applicable, the
rescheduled time and date for the sale of
this property, you may call 1-800-281-
8219 or visit this Internet Web site
www.recontrustco.com, using the file
number assigned to this case 12-
0070696. Information about postpone-
ments that are very short in duration or
that occur close in time to the scheduled
sale may not immediately be reflected in
the telephone information or on the Inter-
net Web site. The best way to verify
postponement information is to attend
the scheduled sale. DATED:

INTERNATIONAL 28
By Michael Warren
BUENOS AIRES, Argentina Before he became pope,
Francis spoke his mind about many of the most sensitive top-
ics the Roman Catholic church faces today. Here is a sampling
from On Heaven and Earth, published in 2012, and his
authorized biography The Jesuit, published in 2010 and
republished last month as Pope Francis. Conversations with
Jorge Mario Bergoglio.
PRIESTLY CELIBACY: Roman Catholic priests take vows
of celibacy. Some Catholics say they should be allowed to
marry, like Eastern Rite Catholic priests.
For the moment Im in favor of maintaining celibacy, with
its pros and cons, because there have been 10 centuries of good
experiences rather than failures. Its a question of discipline,
not of faith. It could change.
CLERGY ABUSE: Francis says punishing the priest is more
important than protecting the churchs image.
We must never turn a blind eye. ... I do not believe in tak-
ing positions that uphold a certain corporate spirit to avoid
damaging the image of the institution. That solution was pro-
posed once in the United States: they proposed switching the
priests to a different parish. It is a stupid idea; that way, the
priest just takes the problem with him wherever he goes.
ABORTION: Francis is against it, from the moment of con-
ception.
The pregnant woman doesnt carry a toothbrush in her
womb, nor a tumor. Science teaches that from the moment of
conception, the new being has all the genetic code. Its impres-
sive. Its not, therefore, a religious question but clearly a moral
one, based on science.
SEX EDUCATION: Francis is for it, if done holistically,
with love and not just sex in mind.
I think it should be done throughout the growth of children,
adapted to each phase. ... What happens now is many of those
who raise the banner of sex education understand it as separate
from the persons humanity. So, instead of counting on a sexu-
al education law for the entire person, for love, its reduced to
a law for sex.
CONTRACEPTION: Francis thinks many Catholics are too
obsessed about it.
I see in certain illustrious elite Christians a degradation of
whats religious. ... they prefer to talk of sexual morality, of
everything that has anything to do with sex. That in this case
you can do it, that in the other you cant. ... Weve left aside an
incredibly rich catechism, the mysteries of faith and belief, and
end up centering on whether or not to march against a proposed
condom law.
DIVORCE: Francis agrees that divorcees who remarry can-
not take communion, but wants them attending church.
Its a very strong value in Catholicism, marriage until sepa-
rated by death. Still, today in Catholic doctrine the faithful who
get divorced and remarry are reminded that they are not
excommunicated. While they live in a situation on the margin
of the sacrament of marriage, they are asked to integrate in the
life of the parish.
HOMOSEXUALITY: The Vatican condemns gay acts, toler-
ates gay tendencies. Francis goes a bit farther.
Gay marriage is an anthropological step backward. If
theres a private union, then third parties and society arent
affected.
Pope Francis speaks out
on Catholic church issues
LUSHAN, China The tent village
that sprang up in two days to house
quake survivors in mountain-flanked
Lushan is no ordinary refugee camp.
Chinas full range of disaster response is
on display: trucks with X-ray equip-
ment, phone-charging stations, bank
tellers-on-wheels even a tent for
insurance claims.
The efforts under way in mountainous
Sichuan province after a quake Saturday
that killed at least 192 people showed
that the government has continued to
hone its disaster reaction long con-
sidered a crucial leadership test in China
since a much more devastating earth-
quake in 2008, also in Sichuan, and
another one in 2010 in the western
region of Yushu.
Lushan was so heavily hit and my
familys house toppled. It has been such
a disaster for us, said Yue Hejun, 28, as
he waited to recharge his familys three
mobile phones at a charging stall, volun-
teered by a communications company
and coordinated by the government in a
new addition to the arsenal of services
after natural disasters. If we can charge
our phones, we are at least able to keep
in touch with our family members out-
side and that helps to set our minds at
ease.
At a mini-clinic with two green cots in
the open air and a small tent for doctors
to sleep, a doctor said Monday the gov-
ernment has learned the importance of
fast coordination since the Yushu quake,
which killed more than 2,600 people.
Much of the initial relief in that disaster
came from Buddhist monks and other
non-government volunteers, partly
because of the remoteness of much of
the affected areas.
After 24 hours or 48 hours in Yushu,
things were not so orderly or settled in,
said the doctor, who like many govern-
ment ofcials would give only her sur-
name, Luo. The governments quick,
organized response is very important.
Its no use to blindly come here and try
to save people.
Helicopters have been an obvious
presence in the latest rescue efforts, used
to reach outlying communities, unlike in
2008 when bad weather hampered their
use in the critical rst 36 hours. This
time, better use of helicopters for recon-
naissance with remote sensing tech-
nology and for the distribution of aid
has allowed help to get out more quick-
ly to where it is needed, said Teng
Wuxiao, director of the Institute of
Urban Public Security at Fudan
University in Shanghai.
Still, complaints were common
among the survivors of the latest quake,
especially in the more hard-to-reach
areas. While aid was being delivered, it
was not getting out to all who need it.
Yue said family members in his remote
mountain village had received no help
with shelter and were living under tar-
paulins.
