Central Park South submits plans to the city


Trans World seeks to consolidate, redevelop San Mateo properties; Project 90 to move
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

A proposal to redevelop a large portion of


the block just south of San Mateos Central
Park currently occupied by office space,
housing and the nonprofit Project 90 is in
the works as the owner moves closer to its
longtime vision of consolidating its properties.
Trans World Assurance Company has

turned in a formal application for Central


Park South, a project to transform its four
parcels near El Camino Real and Ninth
Avenue on the southwest corner of Central
Park into two four-story buildings one
for office and one for residences.
The site housing Trans Worlds current
headquarters, which it shares with Pacific
Western Bank at 885 S. El Camino Real,
would be redeveloped into a 33,500-squarefoot office building, said Trans World

President Charles Royals. The company


will likely keep its headquarters on the second floor, seek a financial provider or bank
as a ground-floor tenant as well as offer new
office space, Royals said.
The proposal would also include at-grade
and one level of underground parking totaling 88 spaces, according to the city of San
Mateos website.
Trans Worlds adjacent properties at 15,
25 and 31 Ninth Ave. are being sought for a

City hosts grade separation discussion


Burlingame residents invited to voice concerns regarding Broadway railroad intersection
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Burlingame officials are inviting residents to participate in a community meeting


discussing grade separation at the Broadway
railroad intersection Wednesday, March 11.
The public meeting, which will be held at
the social hall in the Burlingame Recreation
Center, is the first of three that will allow
residents to discuss the proposed grade separation project.
Grade separation is necessary to relieve the
traffic congestion that begins at the current
at-grade intersection of Broadway and the
railroad tracks, according to a city report.
This at-grade railroad crossing needs
improved traffic safety and circulation;
reduced congestion; and increased operational efficiency, according to the report.
Transportation Engineer Augustine Chou
said he hopes residents will attend the meeting to voice their opinion on the proposed
project.
We try to make sure that we get community input before we go forward with any
type of project, he said. We dont have a
project in place, and we would like to lay the
groundwork for a future project, and see

what residents concerns are.
The meeting is part of the grade separation study, which was approved by the City
Council in 2013.
The San Mateo County Transportation
Authority called for grade separation projects and there is about $200 million available in grant funding for the countywide
program.
Chou said officials hope including comprehensive public outreach in the process of
the study will increase the citys odds of
receiving grant funding for the project.
We want to be able to have this document
that can demonstrate to any potential funding source that we have a project that is worthy of consideration because we have talked
to the public and amongst ourselves, he
said.
He said he expects the conversations
regarding grade separation to be more

expectation regarding what residents might


express during the meeting, said Chou.
This meeting is to meet with the neighborhood and public and get their concerns
about the traffic situation that is there, said
Chou.
During peak travel times, the intersection
can be blocked for up to 14 minutes per
hour, according to city reports. The
Broadway station is currently only open on
the weekend.
According to the city report, the discussions will revolve around concepts for
design, traffic study and aesthetic concerns,
as well as impact on pedestrians and bicycles traffic.
Broadway is a major gateway to the city
of Burlingame with direct connections to
commercial, retail and hotel services and
Highway 101. The high traffic volumes at
the at-grade railroad crossing result in some
of the worst traffic congestion in the
region, according to the report.
The report offers residents an opportunity
to become more informed about the project,
and voice their opinion.

Joe Biden in Guatemala to


talk Central Americafunding
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

GUATEMALA CITY U.S. Vice President


Joe Biden has arrived in Guatemala for a
two-day visit with Central American presidents to discuss funding priorities aimed at
slowing migration.
Last month, President Barack Obama
included $1 billion for Central America in
the budget request he sent to Congress.
Through the proposed investment, the U.S.
hopes to reduce the high level of migration
from Central America to the United States
that has occurred in recent years.

Federal water officials said last week that some Central California farmers can expect to receive
no irrigation water through the Central Valley Project.

State officials to supply


just 20 percent of water
By Scott Smith
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FRESNO Water districts that serve 25


million Californians and vast farmland can
expect to receive a fraction of the supplies
sought from the state during the fourth year of
the drought, officials announced Monday.
The State Water Project plans to deliver 20
percent of the requested amounts a figure
that marks a 5 percent increase from its previous estimate in January. However, its the second-lowest amount since 1991, according to
the California Department of Water
Resources, which provides water to districts
in the San Francisco Bay Area, San Joaquin
Valley and Southern California.
Its a big deal, each little amount of water
that we get, said Curtis Creel, assistant general manager of the Kern County Water
Agency based in the agriculture-rich Central
Valley. The higher allocation does give us a
little bit of breathing room compared to last
year.

Creel said the agency will be forced to draw


on reserve water stored underground. Some
farmers will have to rely on ground water or
leave fields unplanted.
State officials said large storms in
December and February along with careful
management have put state reservoirs at
higher levels than a year ago. Were confident that this water, delivered to local districts
around the state, will help offset some economic harm of this extended drought, Mark
Cowin, director of the states Department of
Water Resources, said in a statement.
Jeffrey Kightlinger, general manager of the
Metropolitan Water District of Southern
California, said the slight increase was welcomed, but it does not substantially change
the supply picture. The district provides water
to 19 million Southern California residents.
Although Metropolitan continues to
maintain water in reserve, we must carefully
manage these supplies should the drought
stretch beyond this year, Kightlinger said in
a statement, adding that the district also
receives water from the Colorado River.

dwarf planet the size of Texas. Unlike robotic landings or
other orbit captures, the arrival wont be a nail-biter. Still,
Dawn had to travel some 3 billion miles to reach the largest
object in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.
Its been a roller coaster ride. Its been extremely
thrilling, project manager Robert Mase of the NASA Jet
Propulsion Laboratory said Monday.
Ceres is the first of two dwarf planets to receive visitors
this year. NASAs New Horizons spacecraft is barreling
toward one-time planet Pluto where it will arrive in July.
Dwarf planets are worlds that are spherical in shape. But
unlike traditional planets, dwarf planets share the same
space with other similar-sized celestial objects.
Launched in 2007, Dawn made the first stop of its journey
at the asteroid Vesta. It beamed back more than 30,000
images of the rocky world inside the asteroid belt before
heading to its final destination.

Bicyclist dies on Ralston Avenue


A bicyclist died in a crash in
Belmont Monday, according to police.
The rider was headed east on Ralston
Avenue toward Alameda de las Pulgas
around 12:20 p.m. when he lost control of the bike and struck the center
divider, according to Belmont Police
Chief Dan DeSmidt.
Witness statements indicated there
were no vehicles around at the time of
the crash and the bicycle was the only
one involved, DeSmidt said.
We had some passing citizens that
stopped and administered CPR, but it
was unsuccessful, DeSmidt said. He
died at the scene.
The victim was wearing a helmet at
the time of the crash. He has yet to be
identified, according to DeSmidt.

Committee policy conference in Washington, D.C.

Netanyahu assails Iran


deal, touts U.S.-Israel ties
By Julie Pace and Aron Heller
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Seeking to lower tensions, Benjamin Netanyahu and U.S. officials cast their dispute over Iran as a family
squabble on Monday, even as the Israeli
leader claimed President Barack Obama did
not and could not fully understand his
nations vital security concerns.
American leaders worry about the security of their country, Netanyahu said as he
opened a controversial trip to Washington.
Israeli leaders worry about the survival of
their country.
Netanyahus remarks to a friendly crowd at
a pro-Israel lobbys annual conference
amounted to a warm-up act for his address to
Congress Tuesday, an appearance orchestrated by Obamas political opponents and
aimed squarely at undermining the White
Houses high-stakes bid for a nuclear deal
with Iran.
Netanyahu tried to paper over his personal differences with Obama, insisting he was
not in Washington to disrespect the president and saying any reports of the demise
of U.S.-Israel ties were not only premature,
theyre just wrong.

The prime ministers remarks were bracketed by speeches from a pair of top Obama
advisers: U.N. Ambassador Samantha Power
and National Security Adviser Susan Rice,
whose address served as a preemptive rebuttal of Netanyahus expected critique of the
Iran negotiations Tuesday.
With Secretary of State John Kerry opening a new round of talks with Iran in
Switzerland, Rice said the U.S. was seeking
a deal that would cut off every single pathway Iran has to producing a nuclear
weapon. She said Obama keeps all options
on the table for blocking Tehrans pursuit of
a bomb and declared that a bad deal is worse
than no deal.
Still, Rice warned against holding out for
unachievable outcomes, such as getting
Iran to fully end domestic enrichment.
As desirable as that would be, it is neither realistic or achievable, she said. If
that is our goal, our partners will abandon
us.
Netanyahu appeared to be reserving his
most specific criticism of the negotiations
for his remarks to lawmakers. But he said he
had a moral obligation to speak up in the
face of these dangers while there is still time
to avert them.

Iraqs armed forces, backed by Shiite militia, attacked Islamic State strongholds north of
Baghdad as they launched an offensive to retake the city of Tikrit.

Iraq launches operation to retake Tikrit from IS


By Sinan Salaheddin
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BAGHDAD Backed by Iranian-supported Shiite militias, Iraqi forces launched a


large-scale offensive Monday to retake
Saddam Husseins hometown from the
Islamic State group, the first in a series of
campaigns to try to reclaim large parts of
northern Iraq from the Sunni extremists.
Previous attempts to capture the symbolic
city have failed, and hours into Mondays
operation, the military said it still hadnt
entered Tikrit, indicating a long battle lies
ahead. Retaking it will help Iraqi forces
secure a major supply link for any future
operation to retake Mosul, Iraqs second-

largest city which has been under militant


rule since June. State-run Al-Iraqiya television said that forces were attacking from different directions, backed by artillery and
airstrikes by Iraqi fighter jets. It said the
militants were dislodged from some areas
outside the city, but several hours into the
operation, it gave no additional details.
Tikrit, the provincial capital of
Salauhddin province, 80 miles north of
Baghdad, fell to the Islamic State group last
summer, along with Mosul and other areas
in the countrys Sunni heartland.
U.S. military officials have said a coordinated military mission to retake Mosul will
likely begin in April or May and involve up
to 25,000 Iraqi troops.

WASHINGTON Speaker John Boehner


left open the possibility Monday that the
House might pass long-term funding for the
Homeland Security Department without
immigration provisions attached, as
Republican options dwindled for avoiding a
capitulation to the White House and
Democrats.
Boehner declined to say over the weekend
if he would permit a vote on the Senatepassed measure, and his spokesman similarly sidestepped the question Monday.
Officials in both parties predict it would
pass, and end the recurring threat of a partial
agency shutdown.
Democrats said they believe the House
eventually will vote on the stand-alone
spending measure, which conservatives
oppose and President Barack Obama is eager
to sign. It is long overdue for House

Republicans to stop the


obstruction of full funding for the Department of
Homeland Security, said
Rep. Nancy Pelosi of
California,
the
Democratic leader.
The White House also
urged a vote on the bill,
John Boehner which would provide
funding for the department through the Sept. 30 end of the budget
year. It has been stripped of provisions to
roll back administration directives shielding millions of immigrants from the threat
of deportation.
Democrats got an assist from an unlikely
source. The American Action Network, a
political organization with links to the
House GOP leadership, said it would spend
more than $400,000 this week in advertising pressuring conservatives not to stand in
the way of critical security funding.

Woman with slain


Putin critic says she
didnt see his killer
By Vladimir Isachenkov
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MOSCOW The 23-year-old


Ukrainian model who was with
slain opposition leader Boris
Nemtsov tearfully recounted
Monday their last dinner in a
chic Red Square restaurant and
their walk onto a nearby bridge
but said she did not see the
gunman who pulled the trigger.
The emotional account by
Anna Duritskaya came amid a
swirl of speculation about who
was responsible for the highprofile assassination and what it
means for Russia.
While state-run and Kremlincontrolled media focused on a
theory that the killing was a
provocation aimed at staining
President Vladimir Putin, his
critics are holding the Russian

leader responsible for creating an


atmosphere that encouraged the
crime by fanning nationalist,
anti-Western sentiments and vilifying the opposition.
Duritskaya said she has been
questioned
extensively
by
authorities. Shortly after midnight Tuesday, Duritskaya flew
into an international airport in
the Ukrainian capital, Kiev, from
where she was swiftly whisked
away by a security detail in a car
with blacked-out windows.
Vadim Prokhorov, a lawyer for
Nemtsov who traveled with
Duritskaya, said she had been left
emotionally drained by investigators questioning.
She has given a full and
exhaustive account of her last
hours with Boris, Prokhorov
said. If any further investigative
action is required, she has prom-

ised something she has done
publicly that she will cooperate. The main thing is that the
guilty parties be tracked down.
In her first public comments
since the killing, Duritskaya said
in an interview with Russias

that she waited for Nemtsov to


meet her Friday night at the

in the former GUM department

Russia, Ukraine reach gas deal to avoid cuts this month


By Lorne Cook
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BRUSSELS Russia and


Ukraine reached an agreement late
Monday to ensure natural gas supplies to war-torn Ukraine for the
month of March, averting possible cuts that could have hit supplies to the European Union.

The two countries have fought


several gas price wars in past
years and Moscow had been threatening to turn off the taps to
Ukraine on Tuesday unless it
received outstanding pre-payments, as agreed in a deal they
clinched last October, the socalled winter package.
I am satisfied that we managed

to safeguard the full application of


the winter package for the supply
needs in Ukraine, said EU energy
chief Maros Sefcovic after mediating emergency talks between
Russian
Energy
Minister
Alexander Novak and his
Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr
Demchyshyn.
Demchyshyn said that both par-

ties had agreed to obey the rules


until the end of March.
Under the deal sealed in
Brussels, Ukraines Naftogaz will
pre-pay and order sufficient quantities of gas to ensure all domestic
consumption for March and guarantee undisrupted supplies to the
EU. Gazprom commits to supply a
set quantity of natural gas each day

at agreed on delivery points.


The European Union imports
around 40 percent of its gas from
Russia, half through Ukraine.
Complicating the dispute has
been deliveries to Ukraines rebelheld east, where fighting between
Kievs forces and Russia-backed
rebels has killed more than 6,000
people.

Letters to the editor


Madison said it well
Editor,
I commend your columnist
Jonathan Madison for the content
and tone of his columns. His comments in his column The power of
awareness in the Feb. 24 edition of
the Daily Journal concerning the
desensitization of many of us to brutal massacres like those committed
by Boko Haram were particularly pertinent.
It seems to me, that although we
are justiably war weary, there are
certain atrocities that cannot be
allowed by countries with the ability
to intervene, whether it be by formation of and sending French Foreign
Legion type units or using other
appropriate force. Otherwise we and
future generations will recycle the
nger-pointing and guilt as such has
occurred since World War II and the
Hutu massacres. The choices are grim
but we should take the time to evaluate whether intervention or nonintervention is the greater of the
evils and then ask our politicians to
act accordingly.
We should not just put up our hands
and say there is nothing we can do, at
least without rst carefully considering the facts and the pros and cons.

Proposed San Mateo smoke ban


Editor,
Hooray to our San Mateo City
Council for the proposed ban on
smoking in multi-unit apartments.
Thank you, Samantha Weigel for your
article San Mateo aiming for smoke
ban: City Council prioritizes addressing secondhand smoke in apartments in the Feb. 27 edition of the
Daily Journal. This has been one of
my long-term dreams. I have lived
in an apartment complex three times
for 12 years to date. This tells you I
love living at this complex for several reasons. Number one is the beautiful small garden that sits within the
center of the units. My relaxation
and meditation time is spent by the
pool within the garden or the balcony outside my apartment overlooking the garden.
Smokers have always resided within the garden throughout the day.
Compromises have made previously
between smokers and non-smokers
until the past few years. Smokers
have increased and are constant, from
sunrise past sunset. The secondhand
smoke has little time to dissipate
before there is another smoker. Many
times while I am in the kitchen x-

ing meals, this secondhand smoke


drifts right through my kitchen window. That certainly is not what you

It is time non-smoker residents are

Renter protections
The Daily Journal receiv ed a copy
of this letter addressed to the
Burlingame City Council:
I am writing to you in support of
Burlingame Advocates for Renter
Protections requests at the City
Council meeting on Feb. 17. As
renters, we have little to no protections, and are at risk of being evicted
with only 60-day notice. That is why
the council must pass a Just Cause
Eviction ordinance for the protection
of over half of the citys residents.
We understand that landlords are
also technically evicting us with
unsustainable rent increases, but we
must have this Just Cause protection
in place as a good start to ensure that
renters have some rights in
Burlingame.
Additionally, we want the council
to set up a citywide meeting to study
the displacement of renters. Renters
and homeowners need to come
together with the city to brainstorm
ideas on how to stop the crisis affecting all of us.
Every month that goes by without
action decreases our numbers and also
affects the citys small businesses.
All of us must exercise our energy
and creativity to solve this
problem.

Vocational training wont work


Editor,
Some people suggest that ISIS
members, who engage in the most
brutal crimes against humanity, need
motivation and jobs to change their
ways. From what I hear, ISIS members are pretty well paid in cash,
women and free weapons. They get to
blow things up, shoot people and
slice them up, without any negative
consequences.
What do we have to offer?
Monogamy? A house with a white
picket fence? Health insurance?
Crying babies who become teenagers
and call you names? Crowded freeways? Road rage? Its no surprise that
they arent short of recruits.
The ISIS lifestyle is much too
attractive, especially to brainwashed
young men whove been promised
eternal delight, to be persuaded that
our way is better. Its no wonder that
as of a year ago, an estimated 75,000
foreign nationals had traveled to
Syria to be jihadists.
The only way to stop fundamentally violent people from continuing to
be violent is to make them afraid of
something. If that isnt possible,
theres only one other alternative,
which doesnt take much imagination
to gure out.

A sixth sense we
collectively share

ou and I are a part of a fundamental unity within a


universe more massive than our limited human
minds can fathom. As world-renowned writer and
scientist Pierre Teilhard de Chardin once described in his
book, The Phenomenon of Man, this unity reveals itself
down to the innitely minute elements that embody the
foundations of the earth-atoms, molecules, cells and electrons. Each of these small units of the Earths fabric manifests a perfectly orchestrated coherence, appearing to function as one homogeneous group.
It does not take an acclaimed
scientist to notice these united
inter-workings of the universe
unfold. You and I witness this
phenomena every day in raindrops, the unfathomable number
of stars and, of course, the blood,
bone and sinew of our temporary
esh. It only follows logic, then,
that just as we are products of an
orchestrated universe of many
parts, so too are we, as human
beings, consciously interconnected as well.
Jonathan Madison
What would you call major
worldwide movements and moments of conscientious
enlightenment in the human spirit? An increasing number
of intellectuals in the scientic community are embracing
the phenomena as evidence of a sixth sense among humanity more commonly known as a collective consciousness. In essence, this collective consciousness is the idea
that human beings have a global consciousness that
becomes increasingly evident in times of despair and triumph. The theory also holds that human beings can be an
integral part of human events, allowing each of us to collectively react to and anticipate major phenomena. At least one
acclaimed scientic organization claims to have concrete
evidence for this theory.
The Global Consciousness Project is an international
organization of engineers and scientists that collects data
from what it calls a global network of physical random
number generators in about 70 locations worldwide. The
data are transmitted to an archive storing approximately 15
years of random data.
According to GCP, when the feelings and emotions of billions of people are synthesized by a powerful event, the network of random number generators transmits the data to
GCPs database display chart reecting the increase in global consciousness. GCP claims this evidence suggests a unifying eld of consciousness described by sages in all cultures.
The highest trend of collective consciousness on record
occurred on one fateful day that we will never forget Sept.
11, 2001. The random number generator data chart reected
skyrocketing trends just hours before the Sept. 11 terrorist
attacks occurred and continued to increase hours after the
planes struck the World Trade Center and claimed the lives of
nearly 3,000 innocent people. GCP claims that human
beings collectively reacted to that dreadful event. Although
scientists have no understanding of how or to what extent a
collective consciousness like this works, one thing is certain we witnessed our country unite more in the wake of
tragedy than we had seen since the bombing at Pearl Harbor.
This coherent consciousness was evident in the 150 members of Congress Republicans and Democrats who
stood united on the Capitol steps that fateful day chanting
our patriotic hymn God Bless America in the face of
grievance and terror. This unity was also manifested in the
countless stories of rst responders who ran toward the
burning buildings to save lives. In many cases, it meant
sacricing their own for the greater good.
History gives us additional evidence that may suggest that
the Sept. 11 attacks was not the rst date or period in which
human beings have demonstrated a large-scale collective
reaction or movement.
The civil rights movements of the 1950s and 1960s made
possible many of the fundamental rights that you and I hold
dear. But, what is signicant is that the collective rejection
of racial segregation and degradation was not conned to
American borders during that time. At the same time in
South Africa, Nelson Mandela was leading a revolutionary
ght against Apartheid. Similar movements also took place
in many other parts of the world.
So, even if there is a collective consciousness of which
you and I are intrinsically a part, what is the big deal? The
big deal is that you and I have a stake, regardless of your
political or socioeconomic place within society. Your ideas
and notions about the world matter. Dont let anyone ever
tell you otherwise. Ultimately, humanity demonstrates its
most powerful force when it unites itself for a collective
greater good. We have seen it happen so many times before,
even in historys darkest moments. I have faith that we will
come together again when we are inevitably faced with crisis.

NEW YORK For the first time


since its dot-com era peak nearly 15
years ago, the Nasdaq composite has
closed above 5,000.
Major U.S. indexes rose from the
start, with the Nasdaq passing the

close of trading to end at 5,008.10 on
Monday, just 40 points from its
March 2000 record. Merger news and
an encouraging economic report
drove the gains.
The long climb back for the Nasdaq,
once a symbol of investor recklessness and self-delusion, has been
marked by significant changes in its
composition. Telecommunications
stocks now represent less than 1 percent of the index, versus 12 percent in
2000. Gone also is the heavy reliance
on Internet companies with little or

As a result, valuations are more
modest.
Investors are now paying $20 for

Nasdaq approaching record high


By Steve Rothwell
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK The last time the


Nasdaq was this high, Bill Clinton was
president, your Internet connection
was probably still dial-up and the
iPod, iPhone and iPad didnt exist.
Fifteen years later the Nasdaq has
again closed above 5,000 and is close
to topping its record from the dot-com
boom. The index has clawed back, riding a six-year bull market, and is now
40 points from its all-time closing
high of 5,048.62 reached March 10,
2000.
But this isnt the Nasdaq of Pets.com
and Webvan, when companies were
valued on cash burn rates and eyeballs.
Certainly, the Nasdaq at 5,000 conjures up images of a tech bubble, said
Jack Ablin, chief investment officer at
BMO Private Bank. But weve had
time for business profits to grow into
those crazy expectations 15 years
ago.
As the tech-mania took hold,
investors pushed up the prices of all
kinds of internet-related stocks. Some
were never profitable and disappeared.
Others, like Priceline. com and
Amazon, have survived and prospered.
On Monday, the index climbed
44. 57 points, or 0. 9 percent, to
5,008.10. The index is up 5.7 percent
this year, the best performance among
major U.S. stock indexes.

Nasdaq then and now


THE DRIVERS:
Now
The Nasdaqs current rise has been driven by
technology and health care. In a slow-growth world,
investors favor industries where earnings will be better
than average.This pair qualifies.Tech stocks are poised
to benefit as companies increase their spending on
equipment and software to cut costs and improve
productivity. Health care stocks have been climbing as
investors bet that biotechnology companies will
discover the next blockbuster drug.
Together, tech and health account for almost two thirds
of the Nasdaqs market value.
Stocks follow earnings, and both tech and health care
have been standouts, said Jim McDonald, chief
investment officer at Northern Trust.
One stock in particular holds sway over the Nasdaq:
Apple. Its market value has surged to over $750 billion
from $22.5 billion in March 2000. The company
accounts for 10 percent of the Nasdaqs market value.
Powered by tech and health care, the Nasdaq has
climbed 15 percent over the past year, a more
tempered rise than the 109 percent surge in the year
before its last peak in 2000.
Then
The Nasdaq had a much heavier tech-focus in 2000.
At its peak, tech stocks made up 65 percent of the index
compared with 43 percent today.Telecommunication
companies were also a big component, accounting for
12 percent of the indexs market value versus 0.8
percent now.
The biggest stock in the index was Microsoft with a
market valuation of $525 billion. Apple had yet to
release the iPod, iPhone or the iPad.
HOW EXPENSIVE ARE STOCKS?
Now
The price-earnings ratio of the Nasdaq, a measure of
how much investors are willing to pay for every dollar
of earnings the companies in the index generate, is 20.
Then
When the Nasdaq was at its highest, its price-earnings
ratio reached 194.
Valuations placed on tech stocks were off the charts,
says Russ Koesterich, chief investment strategist at asset
manager BlackRock.
BROADER STOCK MARKET:
Now
Like the Nasdaq, both the broader Standard & Poors
500 index and the Dow Jones industrial average are
trading at record highs, underpinned by record

company earnings and optimism that the economy


will continue to strengthen gradually.
Then
The S&P 500 was also surging in 2000, rising with the
internet bubble.The S&P 500 peaked at its then-record
close of 1,527.35, on March 24, 2000. The Dow closed
at a record of 11,722.98 on Jan. 14, 2000.
NASDAQ HEAVYWEIGHTS:
Now
Apple is the titan and Microsoft is a distant second with
a market value of $361 billion. Google, Amazon and
Facebook round out the top five.The top 20, however,
also includes Starbucks, pharmacy benefits manager
Express Scripts and retailer Costco.
Then
When the Nasdaq reached its record in 2000, Microsoft
was the biggest company in the index. Cisco, Intel,
Oracle and Sun Microsystems completed the top five.
The biggest 20 companies in the index were in
technology or telecommunications.
THE ECONOMY:
Now
The U.S. economy is slowly recovering from the financial
crisis and Great Recession. Even with a slowdown in
growth to 2.2 percent in the final quarter of last year,
many economists forecast an expansion above 3
percent in 2015. Hiring is picking up and the
unemployment rate, now at 5.7 percent, is falling.
Economists expect steady, if not spectacular growth.
Then
Optimism over the economy was high. The Federal
government had recorded its largest budget surplus in
nearly 50 years in 1998. At the end of 1999 the U.S.
economy grew at a rate of 7.1 percent, and the
unemployment rate stood at 4 percent.The first chapter
of the Economic Report of the President, published in
February of 2000, was entitled Sustaining a RecordBreaking Expansion.
CORPORATE EARNINGS:
Now
Company earnings have been rising steadily since the
Great Recession and are at record levels. Earnings per
share for the average S&P 500 company are forecast to
increase by 1.5 percent this year, according to S&P
Capital IQ.
Then
Company earnings surged in 2000. The average S&P
500 company increased its earnings per share by
almost 12 percent. The hangover came a year later
though, when earnings slumped by 19 percent.

Google, Facebook update contrasting plans to connect world


By Joseph Wilson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BARCELONA, Spain Sci-fi solutions or making friends one at a time?


Google and Facebook want more people online, searching around and clicking on ads. And they are finding new
ways to make it happen from selling smartphone data plans, to using
solar-powered drone aircraft as floating cell towers to partnering with telecom providers in the developing world
to get people hooked on apps.
The two Internet giants gave updates
on their efforts at the Mobile World
Congress wireless show in Barcelona
on Monday. And while Facebook CEO
Mark Zuckerberg and Google Vice

President Sundar Pichai say they might


like to collaborate more, they are taking very different approaches to getting the world connected.
Internet.org is Facebooks fledgling
effort to create new users in countries
with little or low Internet use.
Zuckerberg said Monday that it has
launched apps with basic free services in
six countries: Zambia, Ghana, Kenya,
Tanzania, Colombia and most recently,
India. Zuckerberg said initial feedback
from telecom partners in those countries has been positive, and called the
app an onramp for paid services.
Even if they have never used
Internet in their life, they have basic
services they can use communication, health, education and jobs and

that basically serves as an onramp so


people can learn why they would want
to pay for data, Zuckerberg said. And
we are finding that is growing paid
subscribers and overall subscribers of
the Internet.
The app is customized for each country and telecom operator so as to lure
new users while not hurting the telecoms already existing base of customers by offering free versions of
services users already pay for. That is
the reason why Internet.org does not
include the WhatsApp messaging service, bought by Facebook last year.
Mario Zanotti, Senior Vice President
of Operations at Millicom, said that
Internet.org was working well for his
companys business in Paraguay.

In deal news, NXP Semiconductors


said Sunday that its planning to
acquire Freescale Semiconductor for
$11.8 billion. The merger would create the largest supplier of microchips
for cars.
NXPs stock jumped $14.67, or 17
percent, to $99. 56. Freescale rose
$4.25, or 12 percent, to $40.36.
Boards of both companies have
already approved the deal. Regulators
still need to sign off on it.
Cardinal Health rose $1.53, or 1.7
percent, to $89.52 after offering to
buy a unit of Johnson & Johnson that
makes heart devices for approximately $1.94 billion.
In the U.S. government report, the
dip in consumer spending in January
was the second monthly drop in a row.
But adjusted for inflation, spending
rose. And analysts are expecting the
strong income gains will lead to more
spending the rest of the year.
Household income after taxes shot
up 0.9 percent in January, the biggest
gain in two years.
Investors also were watching developments overseas. The Peoples Bank
of China cut interest rates for the second time in three months on Saturday,
trimming the rate for one-year commercial loans to 5.35 percent.

Business briefs
HPs big deal: Tech giant
buys Aruba Networks for $2.7B
SAN FRANCISCO Hewlett-Packard is buying wireless
networking company Aruba Networks for about $2.7 billion,
in what amounts to HPs first major acquisition since its disastrous purchase of a British software company in 2011.
Aruba, based in Sunnyvale, California, makes Wi-Fi networking systems for shopping malls, corporate campuses,
hotels and universities. Its business has grown as more people are using mobile devices at work, school and elsewhere.
Aruba may help HP capitalize on that trend, which has cut
into sales of traditional HP products such as desktop computers.
The deal also could help HP compete with tech rivals such
as Cisco Systems and gain new access to Asian markets, particularly in China. Cisco currently sells about half of all commercial wireless networking gear worldwide, according to
UBS analyst Amitabh Passi. He estimates HP and Aruba combined will account for 20 percent of global sales for such systems.
HP is seeking to expand its tech portfolio for business customers at a time when it is preparing to split into two companies one focused on selling computer systems and software to businesses, and the other selling personal computers
and printers. Thats part of HP CEO Meg Whitmans plan for
confronting a recent decline in sales.

PayPal to acquire mobile wallet provider Paydient


NEW YORK EBays PayPal payment unit is acquiring
mobile wallet operator Paydient ahead of PayPals spinoff as
the mobile payment sector heats up.
Paydient provides a mobile wallet platform for retailers and
companies including Subway, Harris Teeter, Capital One and
others. They also provide the mobile wallet platform for
MCX, a mobile pay consortium whose members include
many of the worlds largest retailers, including Walmart,
Target, Sears, CVS and many others.
Competition in the mobile wallet sector is heating up with
the launch of Apple Pay, Samsung offering Samsung Pay
beginning this summer and Google teaming up with Verizon
Wireless, AT&T and T-Mobile to have its Google Wallet payment service built into Android phones sold by those carriers.

Next Google Maps adventure:


Soaring through Amazon jungle
SAN FRANCISCO For its next technological trick,
Google will show you what its like to zip through trees in
the Amazon jungle.
The images released Monday are the latest addition to the
diverse collection of photos supplementing Googles widely
used digital maps. The maps Street View option mostly
provides panoramic views of cities and neighborhoods photographed by car-mounted cameras, but Google also has
found creative ways to depict exotic locations where there are
no roads.
In its latest foray into the wilderness, Google teamed up
with environmental protection group Amazonas Sustainable
Foundation, or FAS, to explore a remote part of an Amazon
rainforest in Brazil. Google Inc. lent FAS its Trekker device,
a camera mounted on an apparatus originally designed to be
carried like a backpack by hikers walking on trails.

Last-second shot sinks Warriors in Brooklyn


By Brian Mahoney
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK There was no stopping


Stephen Curry down the stretch, so Jarrett
Jack shot over him.
Jack made a tiebreaking jumper with 1.1
seconds left and the Brooklyn Nets overcame Currys stirring fourth-quarter comeback attempt to beat the Golden State
Warriors 110-108 on Monday night.
Curry, in a breathtaking flurry of outside

shooting, brought the


Warriors back from 10
points down with under 4
minutes left to tie it. But
he couldnt get a final
shot off after Jacks
jumper over his outstretched arms.
Its all about being
ready,
Jack said. I didJarrett Jack
nt have a huge game
shooting the ball. I think chasing Steph

around probably had a big, big reason to do


with that. But its always staying ready.
Curry finished with 26 points, 18 in the
final period, when he had opposing fans
chanting MVP! and gasping every time he
rose to shoot. Jack, however, calmly ran
the clock down and hit the shot to beat his
former team as the Nets won their first game
at home since Feb. 6.
Thats what he does. He makes big
shots, Curry said. I played the best
defense I could on that possession, contest-

Little Ferrari comes up big


By Terry Bernal

Athlete of the Week

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The deck seemed to be stacked against


Burlingame Saturday night.
Burlingame had a tough draw in the Central
Coast Section Division III quarterfinals.
Although McCullough Gymnasium was
intended as a neutral site hosting all four of
Saturdays D-III quarterfinals, Burlingame had
to take on host team St. Ignatius.
Adding to the disadvantage, the No. 6-seed
Panthers entered as the underdog against No.
3 St. Ignatius.
There was a lot of pressure but I knew we
could win, Burlingame point guard Vinny
Ferrari said. I know were a good team. I
honestly thought we had a good shot at winning if we just played together and pulled
through.
Ferrari was right. Burlingame did win the
topsy-turvy contest 56-42 to advance to
Wednesdays semifinal against No. 2 Aptos.
But the game was much closer than the final
scores 14-point margin suggests. And it certainly did not come easy.
Two of Burlingames best players this season, 6-5 power forward Tyler Garlitos and 6-5
center Bassel Mufarreh, figured to be key in
matching up with St. Ignatius 6-8 forward
William Emery and 6-9 center Arash Poorsina.
But Garlitos played with a back injury he
sustained after getting upended and hitting the
floor hard in last Thursdays 53-49 win over
Aptos. And Mufarreh was limited to just 17
minutes due to incurring early foul trouble.
So, when the Panthers entered into the
fourth quarter trailing 33-31, they turned to a
familiar, quite legendary name in Ferrari.
The Ferrari legend was born from his older
brother Frankie, who led Burlingame to the
2013 CCS Division III title as a junior.
Vinny Ferraris performance Saturday
showed he has no intention of being outdone
in his junior year though. Ferrari was a force,
scoring 12 points in the fourth quarter including a pair of 3-pointers in a final quarter that
saw Burlingame outscore St. Ignatius 25-9.
Ferrari scored a game-high 21 points while
adding five rebounds and three steals. The
point total matches his season-high. Hes
achieved it on two other occasions both in

ed it and made him alter just a little bit, and


he still knocked it down.
Brook Lopez had 26 points and Deron
Williams 22 for the Nets.
Andrew Bogut scored 16 for Golden State,
but Klay Thompson shot 3 for 17. He was 1
of 9 on 3-pointers and finished with seven
points.
Alan Anderson scored 16 for the Nets,
who had played eight in a row on the road

SHP on entirely
different level

hile covering the Burlingame


boys Central Coast Section
soccer game at Westmont High
School Saturday, I ran into the Panthers
girls soccer coach Phil DeRosa.
Naturally, we started talking about CCS
and soccer and when we got to the subject
of the Sacred Heart Prep girls, DeRosa had
this to say: the Gators are on another level.
The Gators then went out and proved
that statement.
I originally thought it was a typo. But
after receiving the post-match result from
the SHP coaching staff, it was conrmed:
No. 1 Sacred Heart Prep 10, No. 8
Greeneld 0. Ten
goals. In a CCS
quarternal. That is
simply unheard of.
Even SHP coach
Ramiro Arredondo
was a bit stunned.
I was,
Arredondo said. We
got up early on
them. A lot of it was
we hadnt played in
about two weeks.
The girls said they
were excited.
We know we have some talent on our
side. Jumping out early in the quarternals, seminals and nals, the team that
sets the tone early can make the game go
in their direction.
Scoring early is usually a soccer euphemism. Usually, it means scoring in the
rst 10, 15 minutes of a game. Saturday,
SHP scored in the rst minute and doubled
its advantage in the fourth on a pair of
Mia Shenk goals.
From then on, it was an onslaught.
Shenk went on to add three assists, while
Olivia Athens scored four times and
Tierna Davidson tallied twice. In all,
seven Gators recorded at least a point in
the victory.
Shenk, a freshman, now has 27 goals
on the season and is already drawing college interest, Arredondo said.
I coached Mia when she was 9 or 10

Switch-pitcher hopes to find spot in As bullpen


By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MESA, Ariz. Pat Venditte is used to it by


now. Teammates, coaches and others regularly stop him for a chance to check out his oneof-a-kind glove, the same one he has used for
years featuring space for either hand.
Venditte is a rare switch-pitcher. He hopes
that versatility will make him a perfect fit
for an Oakland club that values it so much.
While there is intrigue with his unique
ability, Venditte is determined to make his
mark at Athletics spring training with little

fanfare and do whatever


he can to find a spot at
the highest level in the
organization.
Count manager Bob
Melvin among the As in
awe of Venditte, who can
make
for
serious
matchup problems in the
Pat Venditte later innings.
Former Oakland coach
Ariel Prieto used to throw batting practice
with both arms. Melvin played in Boston
with ambidextrous pitcher Greg Harris, the

only one in the modern era to throw in a


major league game with both hands.
Stephen Vogt is now catching Venditte
after facing him in the minors.
Its just crazy how he can throw with
both hands. Its impressive, its fun, Vogt
said. His sliders good left-handed. I faced
him five years ago, too, in high-A.
Venditte was 3 when he began using both
hands. Hes a natural right-hander, so the
left side needed some time to develop.
It took many years of work to get to the
point I feel comfortable from both sides, he
said. I just remember spending a lot of time

outside with my dad playing catch, hitting


and doing all the baseball things. I dont
really remember fighting it too much.
New As designated hitter Billy Butler
stood in against Venditte the other day.
Hes got every arm angle there is, they
say, Butler said. Ive only seen him throw
from the left side. I havent met any ambidextrous guys. Ive been playing baseball for a
long time now, and its one of those things
thats very unique. I cant do anything lefthanded, and Im really good at doing stuff

Slumping Sharks keen on deadline deals


By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN JOSE With their playoff position


in peril, the San Jose Sharks dealt away
some of their pending unrestricted free
agents in their latest move toward the future.
The Sharks swapped fourth-liners with
Chicago, trading forward Andrew Desjardins
to the Blackhawks for forward Ben Smith,
dealt forward Tyler Kennedy to the New York
Islanders for a draft pick and swapped minor
leaguers with Colorado before Mondays
trade deadline.
Those moves followed Sundays trade of
James Sheppard to the New York Rangers for
a fourth-round draft pick in 2016
For so many years weve sat and anxiously awaited what was maybe coming and who
was coming in to try to put us over the top
and help us, coach Todd McLellan said.
Obviously, were in a different situation
now.
These latest moves continue a process that
began in earnest after San Jose blew a 3-0
series lead to Los Angeles in the first round
of the playoffs last spring. General manager

Doug Wilson responded


to that by saying the
team needed to take a step
back in order to take two
steps
forward
with
younger players.
That step back has put
San Jose in danger of
missing the playoffs for
the first time since the
Andrew
2002-03 season. The
Desjardins
Sharks have lost 10 of 13
games heading into Mondays game against
Montreal to fall into 10th place in the
Western Conference. San Jose has also lost
eight straight home games for the first time
since the 1994-95 season.
Despite the recent slump, they are only
two points out of a playoff spot at the deadline and dont believe they have given up on
the season just yet.
Were certainly not throwing the towel

the coaches think, thats not how management thinks. Well do everything we

Sharks snap 8-game home skid


By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN JOSE Ben Smith scored just hours


after being acquired by San Jose in a deadline deal and the Sharks shut out Montreal
for the third straight meeting in a 4-0 win
over the Canadiens on Monday night.
Joe Pavelski, Matt Irwin and Patrick
Marleau also scored for the Sharks, who
snapped an eight-game home losing streak
by beating the top team in the Eastern
Conference.
Alex Stalock made 20 saves for his fourth
career shutout and first win of any kind
since Jan. 6 at Minnesota. That performance followed Antti Niemis two shutouts
against the Canadiens last year, giving San
Jose three straight shutouts against a single
opponent for the second time in team history. They also did it against Phoenix in
2007-08 season.
The Canadiens got off to a bad start on
their four-game West Coast trip as they were
outplayed from the start against San Jose.
Carey Price made 33 saves and had his franchise record 10-game road winning streak
snapped.
It was a busy day for both teams, who were
active at the trade deadline. Montreal
plugged several needs by acquiring defenseman Jeff Petry from Edmonton, and making
two separate deals with Buffalo to land forwards Torrey Mitchell and Brian Flynn.
Petry arrived in time to play against the
Sharks.
San Jose dealt away three forwards in the
24 hours leading up to the trade deadline,
sending James Sheppard to the New York
Rangers and Tyler Kennedy to the Islanders

for draft picks and sending Andrew


Desjardins to Chicago for Smith.
Despite the flurry of trades and recent
slump, the Sharks still believed they had a
shot at an 11th straight playoff berth. The
win moved them into a three-way tie for
third in the Pacific Division, although
Calgary and Los Angeles each have two
games in hand.
Smith arrived just before game time and
didnt even take part in the pregame skate.
But he made an immediate impact, deflecting a shot from Marc-Edouard Vlasic past
Price less than 7 minutes into the game to
give San Jose the lead. It was Smiths first
point in 26 games and earned a loud ovation
from the home crowd.
San Jose added to the lead in the final
minute of the period. Pavelski deflected a
point shot from Brent Burns that hit the
post and was kicked in accidentally by
Price.
Irwins point shot through a screen by
Smith made it 3-0 early in the second and
the Sharks went on to their eighth straight
home win against Montreal.
The only drama was whether the Sharks
would get the shutout and Burns helped preserve it when he batted a shot out by David
Desharnais just before it crossed the goal
line after his own turnover set up the scoring chance.
NOTES: Smith assisted on Irwins goal
for the fourth two-point game of his career.
... Montreal was last shut out by one team
in three straight games from 2011-12. ...
Marleau scored a power-play goal late in the
third to give him goals on the man advantage in three straight games for the first
time since March 2011.

Eastern Washingtons Harvey


is unknown D-I scoring leader
By Tim Booth
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHENEY, Wash. Tyler Harvey is mostly


an unknown name outside of those in the
Big Sky Conference that hes tormented for
three seasons at Eastern Washington. Yet
Harvey will go into the final week of the
regular season as the leading scorer in all of
Division I basketball.
Consider that Harvey, despite being recognized as one of the top high school players in Southern California, had zero offers
to play top-tier college basketball as his
high school career wrapped up. He avoided
the summer basketball circuit and college
coaches deemed him too slight physically
to handle the rigors of the Division I game.
His only opportunity was an offer from
Jim Hayford to play at Division III
Whitworth, a private school of less than

3,000 in nearby Spokane, Washington. And


if Hayford had not been hired at Eastern
Washington, Harvey probably would not
have even played on a Division I court.
I was 6-feet, 6-1 coming out of high
school, about 150. A lot of coaches look at
that as a small and dont see me as college
ready to play. I think thats what really held
me back, Harvey said. And Im not the
most athletic guy out there so coaches probably looked at that and thought, We need a
more athletic guy than that.
Ultimately, the player Harvey is now goes
back to being that overlooked high school
player and never wavering from his goal of
being a Division I player.
Hayford was in the midst of leading
Whitworth to a No. 1 ranking at the Division
III level during the 2010-11 season when he

the Stanley Cup.


Kennedy never fit in
with the Sharks after
being acquired for a second-round pick during
the 2013 draft. He had
eight goals and 18
assists in 92 games with
San Jose.
The Sharks will receive
Tyler
a seventh-round pick in
Kennedy
2015 for Kennedy unless
the Islanders win the Stanley Cup and
Kennedy plays in at least half the games in
the final. In that case, San Jose will get the
lower of New Yorks or Vancouvers 2016
third-round pick.
Desjardins had five goals and three assists
in 58 games for San Jose this season. He
also is used as a penalty killer. He is eligible
to be an unrestricted free agent after the season.
Smith had five goals and four assists in 61
games. He is under contract for one more
season and is expected to arrive in time to
play Monday against Montreal.
The Sharks have lost their past two games

in regulation despite leading after two periods, a first in franchise history. The team
responded by canceling practice Sunday for a
players lunch meeting.
Weve tried a lot of things to get our game
turned around, center Logan Couture said.
It was just another thing to try. It doesnt
matter what we do unless we come out and
play some better hockey.
The Sharks held onto some of their pending free agents, most notably goalie Antti
Niemi and defensemen Matt Irwin and Scott
Hannan. Wilson said the rest of the season
will help determine the futures of many of
the players who stayed, as well as the coaching staff.
The results are not acceptable, Wilson
said. The next 19 games will dictate a lot of
the decisions that we make on people. Were
just worried about tonight. Well worry
about tomorrow when we get down there.
The Sharks also acquired a 2017 conditional pick from Chicago in the deal for
Desjardins. San Jose also acquired defenseman Karl Stollery from Colorado for forward
Freddie Hamilton in a deal of minor leaguers.
Forward Tye McGinn was also claimed off

GLENDALE, Ariz. National

Mattingly said he spoke to the

Cubs future bright


with top prospects
Bryant and Russell
By Mike Tulumello
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MESA, Ariz. Kris Bryant and


Addison Russell are poised to
become the latest Chicago Cubs
prospects to break through to the
big leagues.
A year after rookies Jorge Soler
and Javier Baez showed some pop in
the majors, Bryant and Russell are
hoping to boost Chicagos infield.
The 23-year-old Bryant is rated
among the top newcomers in baseball, having led all minor leaguers
with a combined 43 home runs last
season at Triple-A and Double-A.
Theres already talk the third baseman could be starting at Wrigley
Field this year.
Anyone in camp can make the
team. Thats why theyre here.
Thats the benefit of earning an
invitation to big league camp.
Youre on the major league radar
screen. Anything can happen,
Cubs president of baseball operations Theo Epstein said.
Among the issues in play for
Bryant, he said, Defense at third
base is a big one.
Hes a great kid. We love everything about him. Hes going to have
a good spring training where he gets
better. Well see where we are at the
end of spring training, Epstein
said.
Bryant said hes been working to
improve in all phases, not just my
defense. But that seems to be the big
one.
Ive been working real hard at it.
I think Ive gotten a whole lot better
from spring training last year. Im

excited to show
them what I
have, he said.
In particular,
Bryant has been
working on his
backhand. At 6foot-5, I have
to stay low to
the ground to
Kris Bryant
get that groundball down the
line, he said.
As for where
hell start the
season, Bryant
said, its all
s p e c ul a t i o n
what everybody
says. Im kind of
Addison Russell glad that its not
in my head
because it would distract from my
play on the field. Ive always been
the type to avoid distractions.
Manager Joe Maddon has said
Mike Olt and Bryant will be in the
mix at third base, while Baez could
get work there as well this spring.
The 21-year-old Russell was a
first-round pick of the Oakland
Athletics out of high school in
2012. The shortstop was the key to
the midseason trade that sent starting pitchers Jeff Samardzija and
Jason Hammel to the As.
Russell played for three teams last
year, mostly in Double-A, and hit
.295.
He said he wouldnt mind returning to Double-A to start the season,
adding, Triple-A is a totally new
obstacle. Id like to experience
that.

talent he has to be able to do both.
The 29-year-old Venditte has
done his share of explaining his
fancy mitt and talent to do his job
with both arms. He would rather
show everyone by finally earning
his shot to pitch in a big league
game.
Venditte played at Hohokam
Stadium during college, so his new
surroundings are a bit familiar
even though the As have given
the Cubs former home a major
face-lift.
Vendittes father, also Pat, is in
Arizona for spring training. He
also traveled from Omaha to
Tampa, Florida, for Yankees camp
when Venditte was in New Yorks

Venditte pitched at both the
Double-A and Triple-A levels last
year, going a combined 2-6 with a
2.64 ERA in 41 outings with two
starts.
The surprising thing to me is
that hes very functional from
both sides, Melvin said. Look at
his numbers, too, and hes good

similar and movements pretty
similar. To be able to do that, I

between home games that ranked
as the longest in franchise history.
Now the Warriors cant wait to
get home, ending their six-game
trip and a stretch of 10 road games
out of 11.
A night after overcoming a 26point deficit to beat Boston, the
Warriors looked as though they
longed for their own beds for most
of this one. Curry was only 1 of 6

very well and hes a great kid on
top of it and really impressed
everybody here with his work
ethic, so everybodys pulling for
him.
Theres even a rule inspired by
Venditte, who pitched in college at
Creighton.
In his 2008 debut with the
Staten Island Yankees, Brooklyn
switch-hitter Ralph Enriquez came
to the plate to hit right-handed, so
Venditte prepared to throw with
his right. When Enriquez switched

to the left side, so did Venditte.


The infuriating back-and-forth
went on until they each were told to
go from the right. A day later, baseball ruled that pitchers using both
hands must decide which arm theyre
going to use before an at-bat.
So, howd Vogt do against
Venditte back in the day?
I dont remember, Vogt said,
then added, probably not good,
because hes really good lefthanded. The way he has continued
to do it over the years, its really
fun to watch.

foul trouble, he didnt look like he


had his legs and then to just
explode like he did was just
remarkable, Warriors coach Steve
Kerr said. He gave us a chance to
win.
On the same floor where he won
last months 3-point contest at
All-Star weekend, Curry made four
3s in the fourth. The Warriors got
the ball to him going toward the
rim on an inbounds after Jacks
basket, but he couldnt get a shot
up before the buzzer.
Lopez said the Nets thought the
Warriors would go for a 3-pointer
on the final possession.
Lots of capable guys in that situation, lots of guys we had to look
out for, and we played it well, he
said.
Williams basket made it 106-96
with 4 minutes left and the
Warriors looked about finished.
Curry then made a 3 and, after
Jacks jumper, nailed two in a row

from behind the arc to cut it to 108105. He missed another that would
have tied it drawing a stunned
response around the arena but
tied it at 108 on a jumper with 1:09
to play.
Bogut threw the ball away trying
to get it to Curry, giving possession to the Nets. That set up the
jumper by Jack, who also hit one
here to beat the Clippers on Feb.
2.
Thaddeus Young, playing his
first home game for the Nets since
being acquired for Kevin Garnett at
the trade deadline, scored 14
points.
Tip-ins: Reserve G Leandro
Barbosa remained at the hotel
because of a viral respiratory infection.
The Nets were shooting an NBAbest 49.7 percent in first quarters
coming into the game. Then they
went 16 of 22 (72.7 percent) in
opening a 33-23 lead.

Harrington wins at rain-soaked Honda Classic


By Doug Ferguson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla.


Whether he was piling up majors or playing
so poorly that he lost his PGA Tour card,
Padraig Harrington never wavered from one
goal in golf. Just get him anywhere near the
lead with nine holes to play, and he would
happily take his chances.
His caddie, Ronan Flood, reminded him of
that Monday morning in the Honda Classic
when Harrington was four shots behind at the
turn.
He said, Look, would you have taken
this on Thursday? And I said, Yes, thats
what you want, Harrington said. You want
to be in contention with nine holes to go,
because anything can happen coming down
the stretch. And it did.
Not even Harrington could have written the
script to his playoff victory at rain-soaked
PGA National.
He ran off four straight birdies on the back
nine to take the lead. He gave it back with a 5iron into the water for double bogey on the
par-3 17th. He made a 15-foot birdie putt to
force a playoff. And given a shot at redemption, he hit 5-iron to 3 feet on the 17th to win
on the second playoff hole when 21-year-old
rookie Daniel Berger hit into the water and
made double bogey.
Ten years after winning the Honda Classic
for his first PGA Tour victory, Harrington
won it again. It was his first PGA Tour victory since he won the 2008 PGA Championship
at Oakland Hills for back-to-back majors.
Harrington lost his card last year and needed a sponsors exemption to get in the Honda
Classic. Now hes eligible for the Masters,
The Players Championship and at least two
World Golf Championships. He had fallen to
No. 297 in the world. The 20th win of his
career moved him to No. 82.
None of that mattered to him as he sat next
to the trophy, Irish eyes smiling bright as
ever.

No. 1 Kentucky
chasing historic
undefeated year
Tuesday March 3, 2015

By Paul Newberry
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PETER CASEY/USA TODAY SPORTS

Padraid Harrington tees off on the 13th hole Monday before going on to win the Honda
Classic in a two-round playoff with Daniel Berger.
Its not about what it means to my career
or what it means going forward, he said.
You dont win that often. When you win,
make sure you enjoy it.
Harringtons birdie on the 18th was the
most meaningful putt he has holed since one
from the same distance for par on the 18th at
Oakland Hills. It gave him an even-par 70 and
the second chance he needed in a playoff over
Berger, the hometown rookie who finished
birdie-birdie for a 6-under 64.
They finished at 6-under 274, the survivors
of a day in which five players had a share of
the lead at some point, and four of them found
water at the worst time.
Phil Mickelson was four shots behind when
the final round resumed Monday morning. He
missed a 10-foot par putt at No. 9, didnt
make a birdie and shot 73 to tie for 17th.
Harrington was five shots behind when he

pulled his tee shot at No. 11, so far left it was


on a muddied patch of grass that had been
trampled by the gallery. He hit 4-iron at the
right flag, over the water, to 15 feet for a
birdie and a three-shot swing when Poulter hit
into the water for double bogey.
That was the start of four straight birdies.
That one shot might explain one of the more
complex minds in golf. In the lead with a
good lie, he sees trouble. From behind and in
trouble, he only sees opportunity.
Im not going to win the tournament
unless I take it on, he said.
With a one-shot lead on the 17th hole in
regulation, he tried not to make a mistake and
hit in the water. In a playoff on the 17th, he
fired at the flag.

ATHENS, Ga. With a perfect regular


season in sight, No. 1 Kentucky looks
downright unstoppable.
Georgia is the next team standing in the
way, hoping to somehow trip up the Wildcats.
Good luck with that.
The team the Bulldogs will be hosting on
Tuesday night has won its first 29 games,
looking very much like one of the greatest
groups in college basketball history.
There are a lot of talented teams,
Georgia coach Mark Fox said. But this
team is talented and big and deep. And then
they combine great unselfishness with that.
That makes em a terrific team.
Theres a lot on the line for the Bulldogs,
as well. Georgia (19-9. 10-6) hasnt made
the NCAA tournament since 2011. While
the Bulldogs have a strong RPI rating and
most projections put them in the 68-team
field, a win over Kentucky would surely
clinch a spot no matter what happens in
the regular-season
finale or the
Southeastern Conference tournament.
Insisting the Bulldogs already have an
impressive resume, Fox said his team will
approach the game no different than any other.
Kentucky had some close calls early on in
SEC play, going to overtime at home
against Mississippi and needing two overtimes to win at Texas A&M.
But the Wildcats are 16-0 in the conference and really stepped up their play over
the last five games, winning by an average
of more than 24 points. Theyre coming off
an 84-67 rout of No. 18 Arkansas, clearly
playing some of their best basketball at the
most important time of the season.

at the club level. I stopped coaching
club, but I had heard great things
about her, Arredondo said. When I
saw her at tryouts, I thought, This
is great. We have another player
who can score goals.
And to think, Shenk nearly didnt play soccer this season.
She was torn between trying
out for basketball or soccer,
Arredondo said. We knew what
kind of player we would be missing if she didnt play. I think she
is one of those kids who play college soccer at a high level.
She is far from the only Gator
on the college soccer path.
Davidson, a junior midelder, has
already verbally committed to
Stanford. If not for Shenks emergence, all of the focus would be on
Davidson, who has 17 goals and
25 assists this season.
Tierna Davidson is probably
one of the best midelders not
just in league but the whole
state, Arredondo said, adding she
has been called in for national
team duty. Having her on the
eld, you know shes going to
make things happen.
Playing in those long shadows is
sophomore midelder Olivia
Athens, who is drawing interest
from national power University of
North Carolina and has 19 goals and
14 assists this season. Sophomore
McKenna Angotti is getting looks
from Stanford as well.
This is probably the most talented team Ive ever had,
Arredondo said.
Despite the Gators success this
season they are currently 17-21 on the year, along with being
the top seed and in the CCS
Division III seminals for the second consecutive season they
have had their share of challenges.
They lost two key players for the
season to knee injury, team captain Mamie Caruso and Katie
Harrison. Arredondo said his roster
has 18 players on it, but only 13
remain active and hes played with
as few as 11 at times this season.
They have also accomplished
this without having an everygame, starting goalkeeper.
Every player on the eld has
played at least a half in goal this

year, Arredondo said, adding Lexi


Lamb spent about ve games

defenders, Arredondo said.
Even with an unsettled goalkeeping situation, the Gators
have allowed only 11 goals this
season. For the last three games,
freshman Vanessa Wheeler has
gotten the start between the posts
and has posted a pair of shutouts.
Not bad for a player who was
the frosh-soph teams leading
goal scorer.
Now, however, SHP gets down
to the nitty-gritty. The Gators will
face WBAL rival and No. 12 seed
Kings Academy (10-7-3) in the
seminals at 4:30 p.m. Wednesday
at Westmont High School. A possible championship meeting with
rival Menlo School is still in the
works as the Knights play in the
other Division III seminal.
And at this point, nothing but a
CCS championship would sufce.
The girls said they wanted to win
league and win CCS. Thats the goal
theyve set, Arredondo said. I
wouldnt be disappointed. The girls
would denitely be disappointed (if
they dont win a CCS title).

House backs bill to force VA


execs to give back bonuses

Supreme Court case against


Barack Obamas health law
By Alexandra Olson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK The U.S. Supreme Court this


week hears a challenge to President Barack
Obamas health care overhaul. If successful,
the lawsuit would cripple Obamas prized
domestic achievement, a program that has
brought the U.S. as close as it has ever come
to universal health care. The Affordable Care
Act passed Congress in 2010 without a single
Republican vote in favor. An explanation of
the legal case:

FOUR WORDS
DETERMINE THE LAWS FUTURE
The lawsuit focuses on the health insurance
marketplaces, or exchanges, that allow people to find coverage if they dont get insurance through their jobs or the government.
The federal government, through the
HealthCare.gov website, runs the exchanges
in 37 states largely those led by
Republicans who declined to set up statebased systems. The distinction between staterun and federally run exchanges is crucial to
the Supreme Court case because of four words
in the nearly 1,000-page law. The challengers
say the law allows subsidies - in the form of
tax credits only for people who get their
insurance through an exchange established
by the state. The plaintiffs interpret the
phrase to mean that Congress intended to
make the subsidies available only on the condition that states set up their own market-

places. The Obama administration says that


interpretation is far too narrow: If Congress
was trying to make health care affordable to
all Americans, why would lawmakers have
worded it in such a way that omits help for so
much of the country?

HOW IMPORTANT ARE THE


SUBSIDIES TO THE HEALTH PROGRAM?
Extremely. The goal of Obamas health care
program was to provide universal insurance
coverage at a time when an estimated 50 million Americans lacked it. That number has
declined to an estimated 36 million. The initiative also aimed to drive down soaring
health care costs. Critical to that goal is keeping plenty of healthy people in the pool of
insured. And a key component is providing
financial help for those who otherwise couldnt afford it. Independent studies by the Urban
Institute and the Rand Corporation estimate
that 8 million people would lose insurance if
the court rules for the plaintiffs.

A RISK FOR BOTH SIDES


If the U.S. government loses the case, a key
pillar of Obamas health care program would
crumble. But a win for the plaintiffs also carries risks for Republicans because the majority of consumers who would lose their subsidies live in states with Republican governors
who refused to set up state-run exchanges.
Nearly two dozen Republican senators facing
re-election next year are also from those
states.

WASHINGTON The House on Monday


approved a bill allowing the Veterans
Affairs secretary to force senior executives
to repay bonuses if the employees engaged
in misconduct.
The bill, approved on a voice vote, is one
of several measures proposed by GOP lawmakers to crack down on misconduct and
poor performance at the VA following a
nationwide scandal over long wait times for
veterans seeking medical care and falsified
records covering up the delays.
House Veterans Affairs Committee
Chairman Jeff Miller of Florida said the bill
would bring much-needed accountability
to an agency that paid performance bonuses
to nearly two-thirds of senior executives in
2013, despite widespread treatment delays
and preventable deaths at some VA hospitals
and clinics.
As we learned last Congress, behind
nearly every VA scandal, theres a bonus,
Miller said.
Congress approved a sweeping law last
year to overhaul the VA, following reports
that dozens of veterans died while waiting
for appointments at a VA hospital in
Phoenix, and that appointment records were
manipulated to hide the delays. A series of
government reports said workers throughout the country falsified wait lists while
supervisors looked the other way, resulting
in chronic delays for veterans seeking care
and bonuses for managers who falsely
appeared to meet on-time goals.
The new law makes it easier for veterans
to get VA-paid private health care and
sharply curtails appeals time for VA
employees fired because of alleged wrongdoing.
Even with the new law, more needs to be
done to ensure accountability at the VA,
Miller and other lawmakers said. Besides
the bonus recovery bill, Miller also has proposed a bill allowing a maximum of 30 percent of VAs senior executives to receive top
performance ratings and qualify for bonuses.

The VA paid more than $380,000 in cash


bonuses in 2013 to top executives at 38
hospitals that are under investigation for
falsifying wait times or where there have
been excessive delays in patient care,
Miller said.
Some high-profile VA executives who
were later fired or forced to resign also
received bonuses, including Sharon
Helman, the former head of the troubled
Phoenix hospital at the center of the waittime scandal.
Last May, as details of problems at the
Phoenix VA began to emerge, then-VA
Secretary Eric Shinseki rescinded a $9,345
bonus Helman received in 2013. The bonus
was in addition to her $169,000 annual
salary. A VA spokesman said at the time that
Helmans bonus had been awarded by mistake.
Helman, who was later fired, has appealed
Shinsekis action, one of his last as VA
chief. A decision on the appeal is pending.
Helmans case shows that Congress needs
to give the VA secretary explicit authority to
recoup bonuses based on false claims or
exaggerated performance, Miller said.
Ideally, VA employees and executives
who collected bonuses under false pretenses
should be subject to prosecution when warranted, but at a minimum their bonuses
should be paid back in full, he said.
Jenny Mattingley, legislative director for
the Senior Executives Association, a trade
group that represents career executives
throughout the government, said the bill as
drafted was overly broad.
Theres a lot of talk about accountability
and rightly so, she said, but we want to
make sure there is a direct nexus between
withdrawing a bonus and what an employee
has done.
As written, the VA secretary would have
broad authority to withdraw bonuses without proof of wrongdoing, Mattingley said,
adding that top VA officials could use the
threat of rescinding bonuses to target individual employees who have fallen out of
favor or submitted a whistle-blower complaint.
The bill now goes to the Senate.

Baigent, a development consultant with
Jewel Property Advisors who is working
with Trans World.
Of the entire less than 5-acre site, the
commercial property along El Camino Real
will remain the same size while the three
residential properties along Ninth Avenue

Trans Worlds proposal, known as the
Central Park South Planning Application,

rehabilitation services.
Since 1983, Project 90s largest residential and intake facility has been at the
OToole Center, located at 15 Ninth Ave.

The nonprofit also offers 34 beds and supports 14 staff members between the center

The substance abuse treatment center has
had a positive relationship with its landlord
and has known about the redevelopment
plans, but it will be a struggle to find another suitable location equipped with living

Jim Stansberry.
With the Affordable Care Act now in its
second year of implementation and led to
cutbacks sparking an unclear future for substance abuse treatment center support,
Stansberry said uncertainty is problematic
in the face of change.
Its how do you make a move and make
changes when you dont know exactly what
those changes ought to be? Stansberry
said. Theres more demand now than theres

transitions.

pay the taxes they should be paying.
Based on data submitted by Airbnb, there
are roughly 100 active listings in San
Mateo and anywhere from 30 to 50 openings on any given night, said Assistant
City Manager Matt Bronson.
Founded in 2008, the San Francisco-based
startup has been used by 25 million people
in more than 34,000 cities spread across
190 countries, according to Airbnbs website.
A recent search of
Airbnb. com showed more
than 1,000 listings for the
area and in San Mateo, offerings ranged from $44 for a
night in a small bedroom
near the Hayward Park
Caltrain Station to a $189
for an evening in a one-bedroom apartment near Bay
Meadows.
San Mateo could be missing out on thousands of dollars in revenue, as its standard 12 percent transit occupancy tax isnt being collected.
Councilman David Lim
said he was initially skeptical over whether the prevalence of Airbnb-type rentals
in San Mateo warranted
attention.

Project 90 has been a good community
partner in terms of offering services for
those who need help and I want to make sure
that they have a place where they can offer
services to those in our community,
Councilman David Lim said.
Councilman Joe Goethals hopes the city
will take a broader look at community-serving nonprofits that could be impacted by
potential changes downtown.
The city-owned lot on Fifth and Railroad
avenues currently being used by the
Samaritan Houses Worker Resource Center
was recently approved for redevelopment
and may eventually need to relocate. St.
Vincent de Paul and the InnVision Shelter
Networks Vendome, a residential center for
the formerly homeless, are also located
downtown, although no changes at either
site have been discussed. Additionally, SelfHelp for the Elderly may eventually need to
move out of the parks recreation center as
the city updates its Central Park Master
Plan. Goethals said he is concerned about
I was surprised to see literally thousands
of listings [in the area], and I think its
important to regulate it number one because
we do have a hotel transit occupancy tax
that everybody has to fairly pay into and
more importantly we want to keep track of
whos renting these nightly rental places
and we want to make sure theyre up to
code, Lim said.
According to Bronson and City Attorney
Shawn Mason, San Mateos current transit
occupancy tax ordinance is broad enough to
include these types of short-term rentals and
the next step would be to craft a means to
collect.
As these businesses have been primarily
unregulated since the inception of sites like
Airbnb as governments scramble to keep up
with technology, Bronson and Mason said
city staff will return to the council later in
the year with possible enforcement
options.
[The city] would have to figure out a way
of investigating those transactions that
might be either by responding to complaints from residents about that activity at
a particular location, it could be reviewing
reviews or just going online and looking at
the where the units are located, Mason
said.
Bronson said Airbnb officials have been
cooperative and the city is looking to cities
like San Francisco, San Jose and even Palo
Alto, which have created or are working to
pass their own regulations. Its unclear
whether those renting their homes would

the future of each of these service organizations in a changing downtown.


Project 90 will have to relocate as part of
that development and we have other services around downtown, Goethals said. I still
think theres an opportunity to bring them
together and have a conversation about
what the future of downtown is going to
look like for them and how they can best
serve the community of San Mateo.
Royals said Trans World has been a big
supporter of its tenant Project 90, but its
plans have been years in the making and
theres demand for commercial and residential space on the Peninsula.
As its property butts up against the 16acre park, Royals said Trans World aims to
complement potential change.
Were certainly not going to interfere
with [the Central Park Master Plan, ]
Royals said. If anything, were going to
enhance that because were going to put up a
beautiful project along the border.

pay taxes directly to the city or if the sites
moderating the transactions would collect
the funds then reimburse the city.
There are different models being used by
various cities and wed be working with
Airbnb and other firms to develop an
approach that met their interests as well as
the citys, Bronson said.
Airbnb representatives could not be
reached for comment.
Unlike in San Francisco where many concerns stemmed from the changes in land use
as visitors began to encroach into established residential communities, Mason and
Bronson said the city hasnt received any
complaints from San Mateo residents.
The citys primary focus will be on capturing tax revenue, however, the council
may also consider an ordinance further
defining regulations to address other possible issues like parking and neighborhood
safety, Bronson said.
Whatever the council opts to do, city officials agreed theyre interested in acting
promptly.
We are mindful of the Super Bowl coming
up in less than a year and the interest that
residents may have in renting their dwelling
units for that event, Bronson said. So we
are mindful of that timing and well look
into implementing an approach before
then.

Nurse who survived Ebola sues hospital system


By Jamie Stengle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DALLAS The Dallas hospital


that treated the first patient to be
diagnosed in the U.S. with Ebola
lied to Congress when it said its
staff was trained to handle the deadly virus, a nurse who contracted the
disease contends in a lawsuit filed
Monday.
Nina Pham, who was an intensive
care unit nurse at Texas Health
Presbyterian Hospital Dallas, says
after being told last fall that she
would be treating a patient suspected of having Ebola, the sum total
of information she was given to
protect herself was what her manager Googled and printed out from
the Internet.
She says in her lawsuit that the
day after getting that information,
the patient, Thomas Eric Duncan,
tested positive for the disease.
Duncan, who contracted Ebola in
his native Liberia but started showing symptoms during a trip to the
U.S., died at the hospital. Pham,
26, and another nurse who treated
Duncan, Amber Vinson, contracted
the disease but recovered.
In a statement released through
her lawyers, Pham said she felt she
had no choice but to sue the hospitals parent company, Texas Health
Resources. I was hoping that THR
would be more open and honest
about everything that happened at
the hospital, and the things they
didnt do that led to me getting
infected with Ebola, she said.
Wendell Watson, a company
spokesman, said Texas Health
Resources is optimistic that the
matter can be resolved. He would
not address allegations in the lawsuit about statements a hospital
official made to Congress.
The lawsuit describes a chaotic
situation at the hospital, where
nurses scrambled to decide what
kind of personal protective equipment to wear without any formal
guidance or training from their
supervisors. The lawsuit says Texas
Health Resources wholly failed to
ensure that appropriate policies,
procedures, and equipment were in
place.

U.N. warns against complacency in Ebola fight


By Lorne Cook
BRUSSELS The United
Nations is urging donors, organizations and countries fighting
Ebola in West Africa not to give
in to complacency as the death
toll from the virus climbs toward
10,000.
U.N. experts said Monday that
the spread of the disease in
Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone
has dropped to almost 10 percent
of what it was in September.
But U. N. Special Envoy on
Ebola David Nabarro said the
fight has reached a second
phase, getting to zero, and it
really is the hardest part.
Ebola has infected nearly

24,000 people and killed more


than 9,600, according to World
Health Organization statistics.
Nabarro said eradicating the
disease requires treating all those
who are ill and tracking everyone
they come in contact with.
Its a really difficult, painstaking task, he said in Brussels, on
the eve of a major international
conference on Ebola expected to
draw around 600 delegates,
including the leaders of Guinea,
Liberia and Sierra Leone.
According to U.N. figures, the
number of new cases has dropped
from some 800-900 per week at
the height of the outbreak to
around 100 per week.
But the head of the U.N. agency
charged with handling the emer-

gency response, Ismail Ould


Cheikh Ahmed, warned that plenty still needs to be done.
We are reaching the most difficult phase, where there is a
fatigue among the governments
among the population, certainly
among the donors, and we are not
yet there, he said.
The outbreak is focused in an
area of West Africa about the size
of France, with a population of
about 20 million people, and
where infrastructure is limited.
Ebola has cost the three countries an estimated 12 percent of
their gross domestic product,
shifted resources causing other
health care problems, and hurt
business as people became scared
to leave their homes or go to mar-

to create a makeshift containment

131 confirmed
measles cases in California
LOS ANGELES Health officials say
there have been 131 confirmed cases of
measles since December with most of them
linked to an outbreak that originated at
Disneyland.
The California Department of Public
Health said Monday three of the cases
were not considered part of the same outbreak.
The total is just one more than the figure

but not yet diagnosed, she wore a


regular isolation gown, double
gloves, a surgical mask with a plastic shield and double booties. She
says her hair and neck were exposed
and that she wasnt given a change
of clothes to wear home, so she
went home in the scrubs she wore
while treating Duncan.
After his diagnosis, nurses put on
hazmat suits with double gloves
and added chemo gloves and taped
them to the suit. They also added a
personal respirator they covered
with a gown. These decisions, the
lawsuit said, were made without any
guidance or training by supervisors.
Pham says that after Duncan died,
she was told that what she had worn
was safe and that she had no risk of
contracting Ebola. Confident in
what hospital officials told her, she
spent time with friends and family.
Pham also accuses Dr. Daniel
Varga, the chief clinical officer and
a senior executive vice president
for Texas Health Resources, of making numerous patently false statements in testimony he gave to a
congressional subcommittee. She
says he falsely claimed that the
hospital was trained to manage
Ebola and that he misrepresented
the type of protective equipment
that nurses wore while caring for
Duncan.
Varga testified that as the Ebola
epidemic worsened over the summer, the hospital system began educating doctors, nurses and other
staff on symptoms and risk factors.
He said that included directing all
hospitals to have a plan on how to
care for patients with Ebola-like
symptoms.
A hospital statement from Oct. 1,
2014, the day after Duncan tested
positive, stated it had a robust
infection control system and our
staff is trained and prepared to take
care of patients with a variety of
infectious diseases, including
Ebola.
Phams allegations echo those of
other nurses. Nurse Briana Aguirre
told NBCs Today show in the fall
that when their infectious disease
department was asked about protocol, the response was that they didnt know and would get back to
them.

Health brief
the state reported on Friday.
Most of those infected were not vaccinated against measles, a highly contagious illness marked by fever, cough and a telltale
rash.
Measles cases linked to Disneyland have
also been confirmed in half a dozen states,
Mexico and Canada.
The virus has been eliminated in the U.S.,
but it has emerged in recent years by travelers who are infected overseas.

ening to withhold about $120 million
in state funds unless the university
keeps both its tuition rates and nonresident enrollment flat.
Their competing visions along
with additional plans by top lawmakers have thrown off the tenuous
mechanics of the admissions cycle.
Campus officials still are waiting to
find out what their overall enrollments are expected to be, a figure they
use to calculate how many new students they can accept and then what
proportion will be state residents subsidized by taxpayers, system spokeswoman Dianne Klein said.
Campuses are in a really tough
position. We dont have a state budget, so we dont know what the state
will provide to the university, and at
the same time we have a responsibility to reply to applicants, Klein said.
How is that going to translate? Is it
going to be admitting fewer students?
Is it going to be putting more students
on the wait list ... ? It will not be
admitting more students than we reasonably know we have funding for.
The rapidly growing nonresident
enrollment is a flashpoint in budget
negotiations. Between 2008 and this
year, in response to recession-induced
budget cuts and what the university
says has been insufficient funding to
support more in-state students, the

scientists will use the 100-inch
infrared telescope to find targets
throughout the atmosphere.
Im very excited, it takes me back
to when an astronaut came to my classroom as a kid and got me all revved up
about science, engineering and math,
said Marasco, who has a background in
working with infrared technology.
In all, 28 educators from across the
nation will go on two separate flights
during their time in the program,
which began in 2010 to allow teachers
an opportunity to work alongside
teams of astronomers who will be conducting research.
And though Marasco does not know
exactly what to expect, he said the
flights will take place at night and the
telescope will be focused on specific
targets.
Through information collected on
the flight, scientists can examine the
formation of stars and planets, chemistry of interstellar gasses, composi-

share of nonresident undergraduates


more than doubled system-wide while
in-state enrollment grew by about 1
percent.
That is a disparity that every
California taxpayer is concerned
about, that triple-digit difference,
Assemblywoman Catharine Baker, a
newly elected Republican from
Dublin, California, and mother of
twins, told the universitys chief
financial officer during a recent hearing.
At Berkeley and Los Angeles, students from other states and countries
make up about one in five undergraduates. They account for one in seven at
UC San Diego and nearly one in 10 at
the Davis, Irvine and Santa Barbara
campuses.
Officials insist they would happily
serve more students from California if
the state gave them more money, and
they point out that UCLA and UC
Berkeley have far fewer non-resident
students than public colleges such as
University
of
Michigan
and
University of Virginia. They also say
the $640 million in nonresident
tuition campuses have generated this
year has allowed them to offer more
classes and maintain programs benefiting all students. Nonresidents pay
$22,878 on top of the $12,192 in
tuition and fees for residents.
It has become an important part of
how we meet our budgets, UC Provost
Aimee Dorr told the universitys governing board last month.
The assurances have done little to
persuade residents that their children

are not being frozen out of an affordable, quality education close to home
a belief that has students heading
out of California for colleges that are
easier to get into and less crowded,
said Peggy Hock, president of the
Western Association for College
Admission Counseling.
Hock, who works at a private school
near Stanford University, also worries
that smaller UC campuses, which
enroll the highest percentages of
black and Latino undergraduates but
currently attract fewer non-residents,
are getting short-changed because
individual schools get to keep the supplemental tuition paid by their international and out-of-state students.
We are creating a system of haves
and have-nots and exacerbating the
perceived pecking order, she said.
Senate President Pro Tem Kevin de
Leon and Assembly Speaker Toni
Atkins, both Democrats like Brown
and Napolitano, have proposed raising the tuition surcharge on non-residents by $4,000 and $5,000 respectively next year to stave off tuition
increases for Californians and
increase the seats available for them.
Fabienne Roth, a UCLA junior from
Switzerland who is active in student
government, said students like her
have become a convenient target.
Ive definitely been told, Why are
you studying here? Go home, Roth
said. They are putting non-residents
against residents, and what is frustrating is it doesnt fundamentally solve
the issue of funding UC. Its just an
easy way out.

tion of comets, asteroids and planets


and black holes at the center of galaxies, according to a public report.
Marasco said he will undergo intensive scientific training to prepare him
for the mission.
They arent throwing us on an airplane and saying go, he said.
Most of his training will be based in
astronomy, as well as practice to get
him up to speed for traveling at high
altitudes on the jet.
Though he plans to be traveling to
elevations as high as 45,000 feet, he
said he is not intimidated about what
the mission has in store for him.
Its not scary, its exciting, he
said.
The jet will need to fly that high, to
get above more than 99 percent of the
atmospheric water vapor and other
infrared-absorbing gases, making it
possible to see what would otherwise
not be visible from ground, according
to the NASA report.
Marasco, and Los Altos High School
teacher Dan Burns, were selected
through an intensive peer-review
process, along with educators from 11
other states.
After the mission, he said he hopes
to incorporate his experience into les-

sons in the classroom, as well as community education programs such as the


Foothill Physics Show, which teaches
science to residents through creative
performances.
Friends and family members share
Marascos anticipation for his participation in the mission, he said.
When people hear that I get to work
with NASA, and get to do this exciting
mission, they say this is what I wanted to do, he said. People are very
excited for me and Im very excited
too.
Marasco said his previous experience working with infrared, and having a background teaching science,
may have helped him get selected to
participate.
My understanding of physics gives
me a slight leg up, he said, often
because physics lessons will focus on
light, which is integral to the function
of the telescope, as well as infrared.
I think we are doing good stuff, and
