Bye-bye boba
Popular Tpumps closes San Mateo locale, moving to Foster City
By Samantha Weigel
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Alex Su started out simple he

had a small downtown San Mateo
storefront and an intense passion
for sharing fine tea.
Nearly four years later, hes
developed a cult-like following of
committed customers, expanded

across the state and is set to close
his very first Tpumps location on
B Street.
Su, 40, said he chose to start his
boba tea business in San Mateo
because it boasts one of the premier bustling downtowns along
the Peninsula. Yet as the site lacks
ventilation, brewing tea raises

indoor summer temperatures to an
almost unbearable level and customers are frequently lining out
the door. Su said hes opted to say
goodbye to his startup locale and
open another site in Foster City.

Nude neighbor
exposes laws limit
CHARLOTTE, N.C. A Charlotte
man who has continually irritated his
neighbors by standing naked in the
front door of his home has exposed a
state law that local prosecutors want to
change.
North Carolina law says a person
cant expose himself in a place where
the public has access. But CMPD
spokesman Rob Tufano told The
Charlotte Observer that police want to
change that, making it clear that its
unlawful for a person to expose himself
if he can be seen from a public place.
Capt. Rod Golding said he had met
with the district attorneys office and
that there might be a way to prosecute
Gerard Leeper under existing law.
Golding said officers have also talked
with Leepers family members about
getting counseling for him.
Neighbors in the north Charlotte
neighborhood where Leeper lives
released some of their frustrations at a
homeowners meeting at a neighborhood church Monday night. Police
officers attended the meeting.
Leeper didnt speak at the meeting
but told reporters before attending that
its his neighbors who are the problem,
and he blamed them for conducting a
witch hunt.

Leuschen says a few weeks ago, he

found a coop unlatched and some of his
brood missing from Buddys Farm outside Sebastopol.
He thinks whoever snatched the
multicolored hens he calls Easter
eggers must have had knowledge of
chickens. The birds they stole were
bred to lay pastel eggs.
Leuschen says hes losing money,
and his family misses the hens.
He filed a report Tuesday with the
Sonoma County Sheriffs Office, but
officials say its unclear whether
theyll investigate.

Somerset County Judge D. Gregory

Fazenbaker promised to serve on

Effort on to keep campgrounds open during drought

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
With an eye on the upcoming summer season, the San Mateo County Parks
Department has been making improvements to the water treatment, storage and
distribution systems at Memorial Park to
keep it open for camping this summer.
The ongoing drought continues to impact
the water level in Pescadero Creek, the sole
source of water for 90-year-old park and its
campgrounds. Throughout the year, the
Parks Department, which manages
Memorial Park, has been monitoring
Pescadero Creek to effectively manage the
water supply.
Three, 10,000-gallon water storage tanks
will be installed to bring total storage
capacity to 60,000 gallons. At the same
time, Parks Director Marlene Finley has
considered how campgrounds can be open
while conserving water in this third year of
drought.
Our goal is to make camping available
this year even with limited water, Finley
wrote in a press release. We will do that by
opening up 50 percent of our family campsites and closing campground showers.
In addition to the 62 family campsites,
youth groups will have access to five camp-
sites located in Memorial Park and nearby

Sam McDonald Park.
Memorial Parks day use facilities will
remain fully open, including group picnic
areas and the Visitor Center. In addition, the
camp store will be open to campers and day
visitors.
If the drought continues through the next
few months, further actions may be necessary, such as replacing flush toilets with
chemical toilets and possibly prohibiting
open fires based on the level of fire danger,
Finley wrote.
Finley said the department is currently
taking reservations for camping and doing
everything possible to stay open.

Campers interested in a more rustic experience can pack in camping gear via hiking
trails in Pescadero Creek Park which connects to Memorial Park and use rustic campsites at Tarwater Trail Camp and Shaw Flat
Trail Camp.
These trail camps have vault toilets but
no water. Backpack stoves and lanterns
with on/off switches are permitted.
Campers must obtain a permit from park
rangers in Memorial Park and pay a $10 fee
to use the sites.

Man gets 19 years for
shooting at pregnant exs boyfriend
A Hayward man was sentenced to 19 years
in state prison Wednesday for shooting at
his pregnant ex-girlfriends boyfriend, then
trying to arrange his murder from jail,
according to prosecutors.

23, encountered his ex-girlfriend roughly
five months after their breakup. She was
pregnant with her new boyfriends child,
according to prosecutors.
After a verbal exchange Mendoza pulled a
gun and fired one shot at the boyfriend from
a range of roughly 15 feet. The pregnant
woman was also in the line of fire and could
have been wounded, according to prosecutors.
The victim dropped to the ground and was
not struck by the bullet, but Mendoza said it
wasnt over and that he would get him.
Hed also threatened to kill the victim five
months before the shooting, according to
prosecutors.
While in custody for that offense
Mendoza asked a friend to make sure the
male victim was unable to testify in court.
In exchange Mendoza agreed to take care of
his friends family financially, according to

A 31-year-old man who pleaded no contest

p.m., pointed what looked like a handgun at
the clerk and demanded money. The clerk
handed him hundreds of dollars and he fled,
prosecutors said.
A witness saw Magana leave and gave a

At about 9:30 p.m. that day, officers went
to the card room and found Magana. A black
T-shirt he used to cover his face during the
robbery was found in his car and investigators later learned that he needed the money
to gamble. The weapon used in the robbery,
a BB gun, was also recovered, prosecutors
said.
Magana must also enter a Gamblers

restitution of $2,000.

California lawmakers heading
to Cuba on spring trade trip
SACRAMENTO Democratic members of
the California Assembly announced Thursday
that theyre heading to Cuba for a five-day agricultural trade mission next week as the U.S. considers easing economic restrictions against the
island nation.
Assembly Speaker Toni Atkins and
Assemblyman Henry Perea, a Fresno Democrat
who chairs the agriculture committee, will lead
seven other lawmakers while the Legislature is
in spring recess. They will be joined by ranchers, farmers and Darius Anderson, a Sacramento
lobbyist who also leads trade missions to Cuba.
The lobbyists group, Californians Building
Bridges, is helping organize this trip.
President Barack Obama is seeking to reestablish diplomatic ties with Cuba after a 50year U.S. ban on trade and travel. Officials in
California, the nations top food producer, see
an opportunity to do more business and trade,
including for other sectors such as telecommunications, construction and banking.
This trade delegation is one way to help
California companies gain a competitive edge,

Atkins said in a prepared statement.
The 27-person delegation will meet with
Cuban officials, including farmers and business
leaders, and learn about the nations economy.

Water spending plan

heads to the governor
Federal appeals court to

reconsider California gun ruling
SAN FRANCISCO A federal appeals court
has agreed to reconsider its decision to strike
down a California law that requires applicants
for a concealed weapons permit to show good
cause beyond self-defense.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said
Thursday an expanded 11-judge panel of the
court will reconsider the February 2014 decision.
The court ruled 2-1 then that Californias
requirement that an applicant demonstrate a real
danger or other reason beyond simple selfdefense to receive a concealed-weapons permit
violates the 2nd Amendment and runs afoul of a
2008 U.S. Supreme Court ruling.
The case stemmed from a lawsuit filed against
the San Diego County sheriff by several people
who were denied a permit.

SACRAMENTO A plan to pump $1 billion of water spending into drought-stricken California cleared the Legislature on
Thursday and was sent to Gov. Jerry Brown,
who is expected to sign the legislation.
The California Assembly voted unanimously, 74-0, on AB91 a day after the
Senate approved bills that would expedite
infrastructure spending; offer aid to communities hit hard by dry conditions; and
authorize fines for illegal diversions of
water that hurt fish.
The severity of the drought requires us to
start now, said Assembly Speaker Toni
Atkins, D-San Diego. Delay for the sake of
addressing every single outstanding issue or
need would be irresponsible.
The legislation includes $267 million to
be provided in grants to water-recycling
projects and programs expanding drinking
water supplies in small and poor cities.
More immediate spending includes $75
million in drought relief to aid communities
with dry wells, fish in vanishing streams
and other needs.
However, nearly two-thirds of the money,
or $660 million, is slated for flood protection instead of the ongoing drought, now in
its fourth year without enough rain or snow
to replenish reservoirs.
These proposals will not solve the
drought, said Assemblyman Richard
Bloom, D-Santa Monica. You wont see
any of us on this floor hanging Mission

Accomplished banners.
Brown has said the flood protection
spending is drought-related because climate
change increases the risk of sudden storms
overwhelming communities, even in dry
years.
Lawmakers also face a summer 2016 deadline to allocate the flood-protection money
that came as part of a $4 billion bond measure approved by voters a decade ago.
Republicans supported the spending in
the water package, but opposed a companion measure that authorized fines up to
$8,000 for illegal diversions of water needed to safeguard fish. They said it gave too
much power to state officials.
Democratic legislators said that provision targets water-guzzling marijuana farms
that are illegally draining rivers and
streams, making drought conditions even
worse along the North Coast.
The companion bill, AB92, advanced on a
50 to 27 vote in the Assembly.
Assembly Minority Leader Kristin Olsen
called on lawmakers to deal with looming
water shortages by speeding up construction of new dams and reservoir projects.
It is way past time to move beyond these
temporary Band-Aid fixes, Olsen said. We
have to work together to expedite projects
that will increase long term supply.
Senate President Pro Tem Kevin de Leon
returned to Sacramento to cast his vote on
the bills late Wednesday after previously
announcing he had a travel conflict.
Lawyer disputes polices

hoax claim in kidnapping
VALLEJO A lawyer disputes police

claims that the kidnapping of a California
woman was a hoax and says her boyfriend
was bound and drugged during the abduction.
Attorney Dan Russo said Thursday his
client Aaron Quinn did not immediately call
police when his girlfriend Denise Huskins
was abducted because at least two kidnappers forced him to drink something they
said was a drug.
Investigators said they were suspicious
when Quinn took hours to report that
strangers broke into his home early
Monday and abducted Huskins for an $8,500
ransom. Police could not be reached for
comment Thursday.
Huskins turned up safe Wednesday in
Huntington Beach. Police later revealed
they had no proof of a kidnapping and
believed it was a hoax.
After the investigation turned to the couple, police said they were unable to contact
either Huskins or her family members by
Wednesdays end and do not know where
she is.
Police questioned Quinn for 17 hours,
Russo said.
Huskins had indicated she would talk to
detectives, and the FBI arranged to have her
flown back to Northern California, police
said. She also hired an attorney, but the
lawyers name was not released.
Jeff Kane, Huskins uncle, disputed that
the family was avoiding calls from police.
He said because hes a lawyer, he has an ethical obligation to not reveal any discussion
with Huskins.
Mike Huskins said his daughter called him
Wednesday to say she was dropped off at her
mothers Huntington Beach house. No one
was there, so she said she walked the 12
blocks to his home.
Both parents had traveled to Northern
California to help with the search.
She wasnt crying at all. She just said,
Daddy, Im OK, an emotional Mike
Huskins told The Associated Press on
Wednesday. I feel very relieved. Can you
imagine? You cant unless youve experienced it.
Quinn called police around 2 p.m. Monday
to report that Denise Huskins was forcefully
taken from their Mare Island home in
Vallejo in the middle of the night.

Bold budget moves slowly through the Senate

WASHINGTON Republicans slowly

pushed a balanced-budget blueprint toward
Senate approval Thursday, laying down
conservative markers for a likely veto
struggle with President Barack Obama over
their plans to erase decits through trillions
in spending cuts and repeal of the health
care law.
Approval of the non-binding budget was
certain, one day after the House ratied a
slightly different version on a party-line
vote.
Separately, legislation to stabilize the
system for paying physicians who treat
Medicare patients cleared the House during
the day and is expected to pass the Senate.
As a result, the weeks events gave credence
to Republican claims that their new, twohouse majority would be able to govern
without the chaos that has often plagued
Congress in recent years.
But rst, senators plunged into a peculiarly senatorial ritual known inside the
Capitol as vote-a-rama bringing up
dozens of proposed changes designed largely to score political points on issues as

diverse as the sage grouse and the minimum
wage.
With work proceeding at a glacial pace,
Sen. Mike Enzi announced at dinnertime
that Senate Majority Leader Mitch
McConnell was hosting dinner for senators, and that Democratic Leader Harry Reid
would handle Friday nights meal. We need
a volunteer for breakfast and lunch for
tomorrow, the Wyoming Republican said
to nervous laughter.
The 10-year budget plan itself was nonbinding, although Republicans said it
would lead to tangible gains for hardpressed consumers.
McConnell, R-Ky., said it included ideas
that could boost jobs, raise annual wages
by as much as $5,000 per family and drive
economic growth for hardworking
Americans. He cited an analysis by the
nonpartisan Congressional Budget Ofce
for his claim.
With 54 seats in the Senate, Republicans
could afford three defections and still be
assured a majority for the

budget. Even that presented a challenge,
though. Four members of
the rank and le are likely or announced presidential contenders, and
several more face potentially difcult 2016 reelection tests in swing
Mitch
states.
McConnell
The Senate GOP plan
envisions more than $5 trillion in decit
reduction over the next decade without higher taxes, resulting in a $3 billion surplus in
the 10th year of the coming decade.
By comparison, Obamas budget, presented to Congress over the winter, envisions
about $2 trillion in higher taxes on the
wealthy, corporations and smokers of all
income levels, as well as more spending on
domestic programs. It fails to balance at
any point in the coming 10 years.
The largest components of decit reduction in the Senate budget, about $4.3 trillion over the decade, would come from ben-
et programs. That would include repeal of

the health care law a step that Obama has
vowed to veto as well as unspecied
reductions from projected growth in
Medicaid, food stamps, welfare and other
social programs that are also likely to trigger White House opposition.
Also, there would be $413 billion in
Medicare cuts over a decade, matching the
gure in Obamas own proposals. Unlike
the
House-passed
budget,
Senate
Republicans did not propose converting
Medicare into a voucher-like program for
new beneciaries beginning in 2024, a
highly controversial step.
Another $236 billion in savings would
come from accounts across the face of government, from education to parks to the
Commerce Department, all of them already
squeezed in recent years by decit-reduction
agreements between Congress and the
White House.
The White House withheld immediate
comment on the Senate blueprint, pending
its approval.

House OKs Medicare Government aims to protect

users of payday loan programs
bill; fate up to Senate
WASHINGTON In uncommon bipartisan

harmony, the House approved a $214 billion
bill on Thursday permanently blocking physician Medicare cuts, moving Congress closer to
resolving a problem that has plagued it for
years.
The lopsided 392-37 vote shifted pressure
onto the Senate, where its prospects have
brightened as Democrats have mufed their criticism and President Barack Obama has
embraced the bill. But with some conservatives
also balking at the legislation, its fate there
remained murky.
Thursdays House vote came on a package
that bore victories for Republicans and
Democrats alike and was negotiated by the
chambers two chief antagonists, Speaker John
Boehner and Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi.
That unity contrasted vividly with the usual partisan duels that hamper most congressional
efforts on budget, health and other major policies.
The vote even gave House GOP leaders a
respite from the large-scale rebellions they frequently face from tea party conservatives,
including on a measure last month that prevented a Homeland Security Department shutdown.

Republicans backed the Medicare bill 212-33,

while Democrats tilted yes by 180-4.
I want to give John Boehner and Nancy
Pelosi credit, said Obama while visiting
Birmingham, Alabama. They did good work
today.
The bill contains funds for health care programs for children and low-income people that
Democrats touted as victories. Republicans
won long-term though modest strengthening of
Medicares nances, including cost increases
for higher-income recipients.
Buoyed by such incentives, House members
more accustomed to gridlock found themselves
with little to argue about. Instead, they praised
the bill and each other one Republican even
wished Pelosi, D-Calif., a happy birthday, her
75th as they all but marveled at their unity in
addressing a problem.
I just want to say to the American people,
dont look now but were actually governing,
said Rep. Renee Ellmers, R-N.C.
Congress planned to leave town by weeks
end for a spring break, and physicians treating
Medicare patients face a 21 percent fee cut on
April 1 unless lawmakers act. If the Senate doesnt give nal approval before recessing, the
government could delay processing doctors
Medicare checks until lawmakers return to the
Capitol.
WASHINGTON Each month, more than

200,000 needy U.S. households take out
whats advertised as a brief loan.
Many have run out of money between paychecks. So they obtain a payday loan to
tide them over. Problem is, such loans can
often bury them in fees and debts. Their bank
accounts can be closed, their cars repossessed.
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
proposed rules Thursday to protect
Americans from stumbling into what it calls
a debt trap. At the heart of the plan is a
requirement that payday lenders verify borrowers incomes before approving a loan.
The government is seeking to set standards
for a multibillion-dollar industry that has
historically been regulated only at the state
level.
The idea is pretty common sense: If you
lend out money, you should first make sure
that the borrower can afford to pay it back,
President Barack Obama said in remarks prepared for a speech in Birmingham, Alabama.
But if youre making that profit by trapping
hard-working Americans in a vicious cycle of
debt, then you need to find a new way of
doing business.
The payday industry warns that if the rules
are enacted, many impoverished Americans
would lose access to any credit. The industry

The bureau is looking at things through
the lens of one-size-fits-all, argued Dennis
Shaul, chief executive of the Community
Financial Services Association of America, a
trade group for companies that offer smalldollar short-term loans or payday advances.
But that lens also reveals some troubling
pictures.
Wynette Pleas of Oakland, says she endured
a nightmare after taking out a payday loan in
late 2012. A 44-year-old mother of three,
including a blind son, Pleas borrowed $255
to buy groceries and pay the electricity bill.
But as a part-time nursing assistant, she
worked only limited hours. Pleas told her
lender shed be unable to meet the loans twoweek deadline. The lender then tried to withdraw the repayment straight from her bank
account even though Pleas lacked the funds.
The result: A $35 overdraft fee and a bounced
check.
After the incident was repeated five more
times, Pleas said the bank closed her
account.
Collection agencies began phoning Pleas
and her family. About six months ago, she
learned that the $255 loan had ballooned to a
debt of $8,400. At that point, she faced the
possibility of jail.

The time is right for community benefits in Redwood City

By Amy Buckmaster, Victor Toreano
and Beth Mostovoy
e support the Redwood

City Councils consideration of a Community
Benets package that will invest the
dividends of downtown economic success into vital
programs such as
new housing for
all income levels,
parks, parking
and trafc management programs, and citywide benets for
our schools, families, youth and
seniors.
The city of
Redwood City has
taken careful and
deliberate steps
over the past several years to position Downtown
Redwood City for
the economic success it is experiencing today by
approving the
Downtown Precise
Plan in 2007 after
an extensive community engagement process.
Many residents
may not remember
what public engagement activities
were conducted to nalize the
Downtown Precise Plan, but the City
Council and city staff took extra steps
to ensure that the opinions and needs
of residents, downtown business and
property owners of all sizes, unions
and community groups were solicited
and considered throughout the
process.
During the dot-com boom of the
late 1990s, city leaders looked at the
out-of-control growth occurring in
our neighboring cities in the north
and the south and understood that
without a comprehensive approach to
land use planning in Downtown
Redwood City, there would be an
Guest
perspective
uncontrollable patchwork of new
development one day throughout
Redwood City.
In the years between the dot-com
boom and todays economic resurgence, the Downtown Precise Plan
was developed, vetted, modied and
approved to provide a carefully
planned approach to downtown development, and more importantly create
a barrier around the downtown core
which will prevent new development
from encroaching upon the established neighborhoods throughout
Redwood City.
The Downtown Precise Plan could
have easily been titled the
Downtown Renaissance and
Neighborhood Preservation Plan
because of the careful land use planning consideration given to focusing
future growth in the existing downtown.
At the time, the Downtown Precise
Plan was passed without any additional fees or affordable housing requirements because downtown was still
considered Deadwood City. It would
have been too risky too expect to
attract new investment if the city
imposed taxes and fees that would
have been considered too high in the
old downtown. Developers would continue to ignore Redwood City and
construct in other Bay Area cities.
But times have changed and downtown Redwood City has proven its
ability to attract investment by commercial and residential developers as
evidenced by the addition of new
housing, ofce and retail projects.
Now is the time for the City
Council, acting upon community
input gathered over many months and
many community meetings, to require
new projects coming to downtown
Redwood City to pay fees and set
aside housing units for residents at all
income levels.
Redwood City will benet from fair,
evenly applied community benets
that meet the needs of downtown and

all Redwood City neighborhoods in
the following areas:
Permanent housing for all income
levels;
Investing in our libraries, community and senior centers.
Growing our parks, open space
and access to the Bay;
Managing parking and trafc with
new garages, shuttles, bike and pedestrian safety improvements, and
streetscape enhancements;
Supporting public schools and
child care;
Providing incentives for projects
to pay area standard wages, hire local
skilled workers, and partner with
apprenticeship programs to train residents for good jobs; and
Requiring new public art.
Even now without the Community
Benets Program in place, fees from
existing downtown projects are providing the funding needed to replace
the 1950s era Veterans Community
Center with a new community center
and joint YMCA facility. The project
is a great example of how the dividends of downtown success are being
invested in a facility that serves
Redwood Citys existing neighborhoods.
A Community Benets program will
not solve every issue associated with
the booming economy impacting the
Peninsula, nor will it mean someone
will always get a parking spot on
Broadway when they run errands in
downtown, but it will set a new standard of expectations by the City
Council.
If you want to build in downtown
Redwood City, you will be held to
same high standards that already
exist, and you will have to invest
more in the health, vitality and needs
of our community.

The senseless
killing of Officer
Michael Johnson
By Susan Manheimer
n Valor There is Hope. This quote by Roman

historian Publius Tacitus adorns the marble
walls of the National Law Enforcement Officers
Memorial in Washington, D.C., which commemorates the
more than 18,000 peace officers killed in the line of duty
(dating back to 1792).
Over the last 10 years, an average of 164 names are
added annually during a somber May ceremony marking
Law Enforcement Memorial Week. Sadly, the name of our
fellow officer, Michael Johnson of
the San Jose Police Department,
will join those names etched on
the memorial wall after he was
brazenly gunned down while
responding to a call for help
Wednesday night, March 24, just
three days after the March 21
anniversary of four officers violently gunned down in Oakland six
years ago.
Again, our tight-knit Bay Area
law enforcement community will
come together with family, friends
and the communities they serve to mourn and seek comfort and solace as they lay a brave officer to rest and
reflect on his sacrifice.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Officer Johnsons
family, the San Jose Police Department and the community they serve. You see, when a law enforcement officer is
killed in the line of duty, it impacts every one of us within
the profession. When we are sworn into office, we are well
aware that the unspoken part of our oath is that one day
we may be called upon to pay the ultimate price with our
lives. Our families and friends understand that, as well as
the nights, weekends and holidays spent working long
hours so that others may be safe and secure.
Yet we do this work not to become heroes, but because
we hope to truly make a difference in the lives of others.
Ask almost any officer and they will tell you this is not a
job, it is a calling. We understand that we are that
last line of defense between fear and safety, between
peace and disorder; the standard bearers of a just and civil
society.
Oftentimes, officers place themselves in harms way to
protect our community and, for the most part, these acts
go unnoticed and unsung each and every day. Yet more
recently, we have seen officers across the county become
the target of these acts of violence, with many of our
ranks being targeted simply for the badge and uniform
they wear.
In the face of these headlines, it is heartwarming to see
the outpouring of support and grief from our communities
and our leaders who understand that our job is dangerous,
and that we are truly the final defense against fear and violence. It is a great source of comfort to our law enforcement family.
As we lose yet another of our ranks, we will come
together to grieve and reflect on the senseless deaths and
the ultimate cost of being a guardian of public safety.
But make no mistake; we will not be deterred by these
tragic losses, these cowardly acts of violence. Our law
enforcement officers are resilient. We understand danger
and do not flinch in the face of it; on the contrary, we run
to it as others flee. This is simply our job, and we strive
to do it with excellence and compassion, oftentimes in
the face of great adversity and personal risk.
I have gone to far too many of these tragic police
funerals. These brave men and women are heroes and
their selfless ultimate sacrifice has defined, yet again,
the face of true courage and valor. In the face of this
tragedy, we redouble our resolve, we rededicate ourselves
to making our streets safer for everyone. This is our
higher calling, and our fallen comrade has reminded us
all of the nobility of our profession and the critical
importance of what we do.
Indeed, one can only hope that this can be the legacy of
Officer Michael Johnsons ultimate sacrifice. Indeed, In
Valor There is Hope for us all, and a safer and more noble
society for he and those 18,000 officers who gave their
all for a more just and civil society.
Susan Manheimer is the chief of police for the city of
San Mateo.

NEW YORK A see-saw day for

U.S. stocks ended with slight losses
on Thursday, giving the market its
fourth drop in a row.
Edgy investors continue to monitor
violence in the Middle East and the
rapid ascent of the U.S. dollar, which
is causing companies to pull back their
profit forecasts for the year.
After hitting record highs earlier this
month, stocks have been steadily
declining this week. Strategists and
traders said the strong dollar, geopolitical tensions and a market that is
already expensive have given
investors little impetus to buy in
recent days.
We have been due for a pullback,
said Brad Sorensen of the Schwab
Center for Financial Research. The
markets have been focused on the Fed
(potentially raising interest rates) and
the impact of a stronger dollar.
The Dow Jones industrial average
lost 40.31 points, or 0.2 percent, to
17,678.23. The Standard & Poors 500
index lost 4.90 points, or 0.2 percent,
to 2,056.15 and the Nasdaq composite
fell 13.16 points, or 0.3 percent, to
4,863.36.
The market has fallen every day this
week, bringing the S&P 500 index and
the Dow down 2.5 percent each and

erasing their gains for the year. The
Nasdaq composite has dropped even
more this week, 3.2 percent, as traders
targeted high-flying biotech companies for heavy selling. The Nasdaq is
still up 2.7 percent for the year.
Most of the action Thursday was in
energy markets. The price of oil rose
sharply as mounting tensions in
Yemen got traders worried that the flow
of crude from the Persian Gulf region
could be disrupted. Saudi Arabia and
other Gulf states launched strikes on
military installations in Yemen in an
effort to oust Shiite rebels that forced
the countrys embattled president to
flee.
U.S. crude rose $2.22, or 4.5 percent, to close at $51.43 a barrel in New
York. U.S. crude oil has jumped 17 percent since hitting a low of $43.96 a
barrel a week ago. It was the first time
the benchmark U.S. oil contract closed
at $50 or higher since March 9.
Brent crude, a benchmark for international oils used by many U.S. refineries, rose $2.71, or 4.8 percent, to
close at $59.19 a barrel in London.
The conflict has the potential to act
as a drag on oil supplies as most oil
tankers from Arab producers must pass
by the Yemen coastline in order to get
through the Red Sea and Suez Canal,
said Craig Erlam, senior market ana-
lyst at OANDA.
The rise in oil was not enough to lift
battered energy stocks. The energy
sector in the S&P 500 index ended the
day down 0.2 percent.
For most investors, the main focus
remains the U.S. dollar. The U.S. currency has appreciated 8 percent in the
past three months. A stronger dollar
tends to make U.S.-made goods more
expensive abroad, making it more difficult for U.S. companies to compete.
The dollar is going to be a drag on
company earnings, at least temporarily, said Stephen Freedman, a strategist at UBS Wealth Management
Research.
On Thursday, the euro fell to
$1.0885 against the dollar, while the
dollar declined to 119.18 Japanese
yen.
The full impact of the dollars appreciation will likely be seen early next
month, when U.S. companies start
reporting their quarterly results.
Already some, like the jewelry maker
Tiffany, have said the higher dollar has
crimped profits.
Alcoa, the aluminum company, will
issue its results April 8.
In the bond market, prices for U.S.
government bonds fell. The yield on
the 10-year Treasury note rose to an
even 2 percent from 1.93 percent the
day before.
Authorities go after crooked car deals in national crackdown

By Anne Flaherty
WASHINGTON A nationwide crackdown on auto dealers has turned up widespread evidence of false ads, deceptive loans
and fake odometer readings, the government said Thursday.
The investigation led by the Federal Trade
Commission and law enforcement resulted
in 252 enforcement actions and $2.6 million in consumer refunds and fees.
It was the second time that the FTC has
gone after the car industry. Last year, the
agency announced 10 cases of deceptive
advertising and loans. Officials say the
more recent investigation in U. S. and
Canada involved the Justice Department and
state prosecutors.
The clear message is that across this
country, and indeed internationally, law
enforcement agencies are on the lookout for
deceptive and illegal practices by auto dealers, and will take whatever action is necessary to protect consumers, said Jessica
Rich, director of the FTCs Bureau of
Consumer Protection.

In one case, a company called the

National Payment Network Inc., in San
Mateo set up car buyers with an automated
payment program that was pitched as a way
to save money. But regulators said the fees
associated with the program were so heavy
they canceled out any savings. For example, a standard five-year auto loan would
charge $775 in fees.
Matt Blatt dealerships, which have multiple locations in New Jersey, worked with
National Payment Network to sell loans and
received commission for the more than
1,000 consumers they enrolled, accord to
the FTC.
As part of a settlement, National Payment
Network will refund $1.5 million to consumers and waive $949,000 in fees to cur-
rent customers. Matt Blatt Inc. and

Glassboro Imports LLC will pay $184,000.
Both companies on Thursday denied any
wrongdoing. Matt Blatt Inc. believed it had
clearly explained the terms and benefits of
the payment program in question but agreed
to settle with the FTC to avoid protracted
and expensive litigation, according to a
company statement released Thursday.
Likewise, National Payment Network said
it strongly disagrees with the FTC and
presented considerable evidence, including
consumer satisfaction surveys, training
materials for dealership personnel and other
documents that support its position and
demonstrate the value of the payment programs in question.
NPN has decided, however, that a settle-

Googles new CFO gets $70M for
defecting from Morgan Stanley
SAN FRANCISCO Googles new
chief financial officer, Ruth Porat, is
being paid more than $70 million for
defecting from the same job at investment bank Morgan Stanley.
The lucrative pay package disclosed
in a Thursday regulatory filing underscored how much Google prized Porat,
who is considered to be among the
most powerful women on Wall Street.
Porat, Morgan Stanleys CFO since
2010, will start her new job May 26.
Shortly after her arrival, Google will
award her stock valued at $25 million
and then dole out another bundle of
stock worth $40 million next year.
Google Inc. also is giving Porat a $5
million signing bonus to supplement
her starting salary of $650,000.
Morgan Stanley paid Porat a $1 million salary in 2013 as part of a $10.1
million pay package.
ment is in the best interest of its customers

and auto dealer channel partners, the company wrote in an emailed statement.
The FTC also accused three auto dealers of
false advertising and violating truthful
lending laws. According to the agency,
Cory Fairbanks Mazda of Longwood,
Florida, Jim Burke Nissan of Birmingham,
Alabama, and Ross Nissan of El Monte,
California, have agreed to settle charges
that they advertised sales, as well as lease or
finance options, without disclosing relevant terms, such as required down payments.
In the end, the FTC said any value of the
offer was canceled out by fine-print disclaimers.
Telephone calls to each of the three dealerships were not immediately returned
Thursday.
Several other cases handled by the Justice
Department involved odometer fraud and
inflating a car buyers income in order to
qualify them for a loan. Other cases pursued
by state attorneys general found that some
car dealerships failed to disclose mechanical defects and charged customers supplemental warranties without their consent.
Yahoo says it will buy

back $2 billion in stock
Lawmakers unhappy
with new fracking rules
NEW YORK Yahoo says it will buy

back $2 billion in company stock as it
prepares to spin off its stake in Chinese ecommerce company Alibaba.
Investors were pushing Yahoo to use
some of the proceeds from the Alibaba
spinoff to buy back stock, and the company had said it would keep buying back
stock to return cash to shareholders.
Shares of Yahoo rose 93 cents, or 2 percent, to $45.40 in aftermarket trading.
The stock repurchase program will
expire March 31, 2018. Yahoo has $726
million remaining on previous stock buyback plan, which was approved in 2013
and expires at the end of 2016.
In January, Yahoo Inc. said it will spin
off its stake in Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.
later this year. The move will allow the
new entity to pay lower taxes on Alibaba
stock sales than Yahoo would have.
Yahoo owns 384 million shares of
Alibaba, and as of Thursdays close its
stake is worth about $32 billion.
WASHINGTON Republican and

Democratic lawmakers in the House have
found something in common: Many have
issues with the Obama administrations
new regulations requiring companies that
drill for oil and natural gas to disclose
chemicals used in hydraulic fracturing.
Republicans say the new regulations,
announced last week, will delay new
drilling projects and take marginal lands
out of production. Democratic lawmakers
say the regulations are so mild that they
wont change current operating standards.
The lawmakers complaints were aired
Thursday during a House subcommittee
hearing called to review the Bureau of Land
Managements budget for the coming fiscal year.
Bureau Director Neil Kornze said fracking is taking place in 32 states, and the
new federal regulations were aimed primarily at those states with limited or no regulation of the practice. He projected that
the new regulations would increase costs
by about $11,000 per well.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
It has been a good, long while since

Crystal Springs Uplands baseball has
enjoyed a season like this.
The last time the Gryphons posted a
plus-.500 record was in 2009, but even
their 13-11 overall record that season doesnt compare to the potential landmark year
the 2015 team is pursuing.
With Thursdays 10-9 walk-off win
against Harker-San Jose at Sea Cloud Park,
Crystal Springs has won nine of its first 10
games to start the year. And fourth-year
manager Rob Cannone, who entered the
year with a career record of 19-37, is on
pace to own a plus-.500 career mark by seasons end.
More importantly is the Gryphons are
playing with a fire seldom seen at Crystal
Springs in Cannones tenure.
They believe in their goal. They want to
win the (Peninsula Athletic League) Lake
Division, Cannone said. We know that
path goes through Mills, but thats what
keeps them going and allows them to come
back in a game like this one.
Indeed, the Gryphons (5-1 in PAL Lake,
9-1 overall) mounted quite a comeback
Thursday to sweep the weeks two-game
series from Harker (2-4, 5-6). Crystal
Srpings trailed 5-1 heading into the bottom of the fourth inning, but sent 10 batters to the plate amid a seven-run rally to
jump out front.
Harker made things interesting in the
seventh inning with back-to-back two-out
RBI hits to tie it up. But Crystal Springs
answered right back in the bottom of the
frame to walk off on an infield single by
Varun Bhagut to drive home Ben Leonard
with the game-winning run.
Leonard entered into the game in a season-long scuffle, but had his best day at the
plate thus far. The junior went 3 for 3 with
a walk and three runs scored. And it was his
leadoff single that sparked the definitive
rally in the seventh.
There was some pressure today, definitely, because we were struggling with the
bats early on, Leonard said. We just didnt play up to our potential and I felt like I

IOWA CITY, Iowa Stanfords David

Nolan broke his own U.S. record in the 200yard individual medley Thursday night on
the opening day of the NCAA meet, finishing in 1 minute, 39.98 seconds.
Nolan shattered his mark of 1:40.07.
It feels pretty good, Nolan said about
breaking the 1:40 barrier. Its always been
a goal, ever since high
school. Tonight, it was
really fun to actually
have it happen.
Texas led the team
standings with 171
points. California was
second at 119, followed
by Florida at 108.
Texas Matt Ellis, John
David Nolan Murray, Jack Conger,
Kip Darmody won the
200 freestyle relay in 1:15.86, and Conger
and Darmondy teamed with Will Licon and
Joseph Schooling to take the 400 medley
relay in a meet-record 3:01.23.
The Longhorns Clark Smith passed
Floridas Dan Wallace in the final 25 yards
to win the 500 free in 4:09.72. Caeleb
Dressel of Florida won the 50 free in 18.67.
Purdues Steele Johnson took the 1-meter
springboard title with 468.15 points.
In the 200 free relay, North Carolina State
was close to the Longhorns heading into the
final 25 yards and David Williams pulled
away from Darmody. However, the Wolfpack
were disqualified because of the early start
on the third and final exchange.
In the 50-yard freestyle, Dressel outtouched Alabama sophomore Kristian
Gkolomeev, the winner last year.
Honestly I dont even remember the
race, Dressel said. I remember diving off
the blocks and thats about it. I remember
closing my eyes at one point, actually.
Probably, like, 10 yards, the last 25, I just
closed my eyes, gritted my teeth, and went.
And then opened them just in time for the
finish.
Wisconsin hangs on to beat North Carolina

By Beth Harris
LOS ANGELES Wisconsin looked like a

beaten team for much of the game.
Frank Kaminsky got off to a slow start, his
team couldnt make a shot in the first half and
then fell behind by seven midway through the
second half.
It looked like a repeat of the Big Ten
Conference title game, when the Badgers were
left for road kill against Michigan State before
coming back to win in overtime.

The top-seeded Badgers again proved their
grit, rallying in the final 10 minutes to hold
off North Carolina 79-72 Thursday night and
advance to the final eight of the NCAA
Tournament.
Sam Dekker had a career-high 23 points and
10 rebounds, Kaminsky added 19 and Nigel
Hayes 12 to send Wisconsin (34-3) into the
West Regional final Saturday against either
No. 2 seed Arizona or sixth-seeded Xavier.
The toughness that they showed today was
really something, Carolina coach Roy

Williams said. Its strange, the difference
between winning and losing is so small.
Marcus Paige hit consecutive 3-pointers
that drew Carolina within one with 54 seconds
to go, but Wisconsin made all eight of its free
throws four by Kaminsky over the closing seconds.
Everyone knows that once we get to free
throw time at the end of the game, weve got
to make our free throws or theyre going to
come down and score, Kaminsky said.
Weve been through that a lot this season

with situations like that. So its just nice to be
able to go out there and do it.
Zak Showalter came off the bench to score
six points in the Badgers 19-7 comeback run
after they were forced into tough positions by
Carolinas perimeter defense.
The plays he made for us in that twominute span, we wouldnt have won without
them, Hayes said. This was similar to the

Weve given up a lot of goals at home and thats not how

we want to play. Thats not Red Wing-like.
Mrazek made 17 saves in relief of Howard.
The Sharks got the games first goal 19 seconds in after
Melker Karlsson stole the puck deep in the Detroit zone and
got it to Vlasic, who beat Howard with a one-timer from just
inside the blue line.
Nieto made it a two-goal lead midway through the period
when his shot nicked the right goal post before going in
but the advantage lasted just 40 seconds. Jurco knocked the
puck home on his third swipe in front of Niemi to cut the
deficit at the 10:04 mark and Tatar tied it a few minutes later
when he redirected Danny DeKeysers shot past the Sharks
goalie.
Tierney gave the Sharks the lead for good late in the period with a wrap-around past Howard, who surrendered three
goals on the first nine shots he faced on his 31st birthday.
After a scoreless second, the teams took turns scoring in
the third. Couture scored 31 seconds into the period after his
wrist shot banked in off a post and Weiss added a rebound
goal three minutes later. Marleaus wrist shot made it a 5-3
lead at 4:56 of the period, but Detroits Abdelkader cut the
advantage to a goal a few minutes later with a rebound marker of his own.
The Red Wings had a power play midway through the
third, but could not manage a shot on Niemi.
Marleau closed the scoring with an empty-net goal. The
Red Wings heard a smattering of boos from the fans who
stuck around for the final horn. They didnt lose ground to
Ottawa because the Senators fell 5-1 on Thursday to the visiting New York Rangers.
The Sharks still have a lot of work and need some help
in their quest for a wild-card spot in the Western
Conference.
Right now, were looking at every game and saying,
Lets get two points, lets get two points, Tierney said. I
think we seized a lot of our opportunities, got chances off
the rush and got a couple of lucky bounces.
Neither Detroit goalie spoke with reporters after the
game. Red Wings forward Henrik Zetterberg deflected criticism of the netminders.
We have to play with more patience, he said. Were
giving the other team too many chances.
This is not on Howie and Petr; this is on all the guys.
San Joses Joe Pavelski found a clever way to lose his
stick late in the first while battling for the puck in a corner.
He extended his arm and the blade wedged between Luke
Glendenings visor and helmet. No penalty was called and
the Detroit forward skated into a TV timeout with the stick
stuck in his helmet.
NOTES: Detroit forward Pavel Datsyuk missed his fifth
straight game with an undisclosed lower-body injury, while
fellow forward Erik Cole was scratched with an upper-body
injury. ... San Jose signed University of Wisconsin goalie
Joel Rumpel to a standard one-year entry level contract and
assigned him to Worcester of the AHL. ... Red Wings
defenseman Niklas Kronwal returned to the lineup after
missing Tuesdays loss to Arizona with a lower-body injury.

the top in the talented NL West.
Ask manager Bruce Bochy and his players,
and they consider the additions of healthy
right-hander Matt Cain and center fielder
Angel Pagan back into the mix as a big deal
right up there with signing a prized free agent.
And, of course, they have World Series
MVP Madison Bumgarner ready to build off
his remarkable postseason.
As he addressed the team at the start of spring
training, Bochy reminded the Giants that its
hard to win consistently year after year.
We had a great year last year, Bochy said.
We have to go about our business and get
ready for a new year. Well still enjoy and
savor those memories but at the same time
its time for us to get ready. ... Your lock on
success is as good as that last game, so weve
got to get after it.
Durable right fielder Hunter Pence is sidelined with a broken left forearm that could
keep him out until early May, while left fielder Nori Aoki will join the team he lost to in
last years Fall Classic while with the Kansas
City Royals.
Casey McGehee, traded to San Francisco
from the Marlins, will take over at third base
with Sandovals departure on a $95 million,
five-year contract to Boston. He has said he
wont try to replace the formerly popular
Kung Fu Panda.
Unsigned No. 1 pick Aiken

announces Tommy John surgery
Brady Aiken, the hard-throwing lefty who
didnt sign after being last years No. 1 draft
pick by the Houston Astros, has announced
he had Tommy John surgery.
The 18-year-old Aiken was pitching for
the IMG Academy to prepare for this years
draft. Aiken wrote an essay that was published Thursday on The Players Tribune
website in which he says he is extremely
disappointed about tearing the ulnar collateral ligament in his left elbow.
Aiken, who attended Cathedral Catholic
High School in San Diego, went first overall
last June despite some concerns about his
elbow. Aiken and the Astros failed to agree
to contract terms, but he writes that he can
Hudsons hurrah
This is it for Tim Hudson, who has said he

will retire after his 17th major league season.
He won his first championship last year,
advancing out of the first round for the first
time.
Now, the 39-year-old pitcher is bouncing
back from surgery to remove bone spurs from
his right ankle, the same one he injured during the 2013 season with Atlanta that sidelined him for the final two months.
Pagans balky back

REUTERS FILE PHOTO
The Giants see a healthy Matt Cain as an

addition to the teams depth of world
championship talent.
I feel like we get a lot of flak for not doing
anything this offseason, shortstop Brandon
Crawford said. We got Aoki, we got
McGehee. We have Cain coming back
healthy that I think a lot of people forget.
Weve got Pagan coming back healthy. Its
almost like getting four new guys.
Bochy joked to Aoki whom he calls a
catalyst about hitting 30 home runs. The
speedy Japanese outfielder responded, 24.
Bumgarners next step

Bumgarner threw 270 innings, including
21 with two wins and a save in the World
Series.
He went 4-1 during the postseason following an 18-10 regular season. From his fourhit, 10-strikeout gem that got things started
Pagan arrived at spring training declaring

himself pain-free for the first time in years
following back surgery.
Despite some flare-ups, Pagan and the
Giants are counting on a full season. He joked
to Bochy that hes ready to play 160 games.
Pagan played in only 96 last season and 71
in 2013 because of injuries.
Reliable bullpen
San Franciscos bullpen is lined up again
Jeremy Affeldt, Javier Lopez, Sergio Romo
and Santiago Casilla. Each of these pitchers
has been part of all three title teams.
Casilla became closer after Romo struggled
in June, though Bochy knows he can mix and
match with these guys. Then, theres
Yusmeiro Petit, who showed he can start or
relieve with equal efficiency.
You want to remind them to take advantage
of what you have, Bochy said. Weve got a
great group here and we dont ever want to
lose out on this opportunity.

to a 6-4 victory Thursday night.

Sergio Romo pitched a scoreless ninth for

Chavez remains on the bubble as far as the

for Drew Pomeranz or Barry Zito.
Lincecum appears much more relaxed this

Kentucky doubles
up West Virginia
Notre Dame tops Wichita St., Arizona holds off Xavier
CLEVELAND Perfect and pulverizing.

Kentucky made West Virginias press look
pathetic.
Trey Lyles scored 14 points, Andrew
Harrison added 13 and the unbeaten
Wildcats, chasing history and a ninth
national title, rolled to a 78-39 victory over
the Mountaineers on Thursday night in the
Midwest Regional seminals of the NCAA
Tournament.
The tourneys top seed and an overwhelming favorite to cut down the nets next
month in Indianapolis, Kentucky (37-0)
advanced to Saturdays regional nal to play
third-seeded Notre Dame, an 81-70 winner
over Wichita State in the other seminal.
The Fighting Irish may need to call Rudy,
consult with Digger Phelps and wake up the
echoes from some of those stunning upsets
in football and hoops they have pulled off
in the past.
Kentucky is a monster this March.
With stunning ease, the Wildcats built a
26-point lead in the rst half over the
Mountaineers (25-10), who led the nation
in steals and gured their full-court press
would at least bother Kentucky into some
turnovers. Not only did the press not work,
West Virginia shot only 24.1 percent (13 of
54), including 2 of 15 from 3-point range,
against the Wildcats, who resemble a forest
of blue-tinted redwoods inside the paint.
West Virginia didnt eclipse 20 points
until the 11:41 mark of the second half.
It was over long before then. At halftime,
the Mountaineers had nearly as many fouls
(14) as points (18) and there was no hint
they would be able to cut into Kentuckys
lead. The Wildcats, seeking to become the
rst team to go undefeated since Indiana in
1976, seemed to be sending a message to
the rest of the tournament that everyone
else is playing for second place.
Five years ago in the Elite Eight, West
Virginia stunned a top-seeded Kentucky
team thats a lot like this one, loaded with
high school All-Americas and future NBA
players. But the Wildcats werent going to
let that happen again, and they blistered the
Mountaineers in the opening 20 minutes,
leaving the court with superfan/actress
Ashley Judd dancing along with the thousands who made the trip north to Cleveland.
Judd then tweeted shes staying around for
a few more days.
I think its okay to extend my hotel
room, she wrote.
Aaron Harrison scored 12 points in the
rst half, Devin Booker dropped two 3pointers and Marcus Lee and Willie CauleyStein took turns soaring to convert alleyoop passes into dunks that had West
Virginia fans longing to take the country
road back home.
Mountaineers coach Bob Huggins could

only sit on his sideline stool and shrug. His
good friend John Calipari has quite a team.
Dakari Johnson scored 12 points and
Cauley-Stein added 10 rebounds for
Kentucky, which hasnt faced Notre Dame in
the tournament since 1970.
Juwan Staten scored 14 points to lead
West Virginia.
Midwest Region
Notre Dame 81, Wichita State 70
CLEVELAND Demetrius Jackson
scored 20 points and third-seeded Notre
Dame dominated Wichita State to advance to
the Elite Eight for the rst time in 36 years.
The Irish (32-5) shot 75 percent (18 of
24) in the second half, easily pulling away
from the seventh-seeded Shockers (30-5).
Pat Connaughton added 16 points and 10
rebounds for Notre Dame and Jerian Grant
had nine points and 11 assists as the Irish
won their eighth straight.
Notre Dame will play either unbeaten
Kentucky or West Virginia on Saturday
night with a Final Four spot on the line.
Fred VanVleet led Wichita State with 25
points, Darius Carter had 19 points and
eight rebounds but guard Ron Baker had just
nine points and went scoreless in the second half.
West Region
Arizona 68, Xavier 60
LOS ANGELES Just when Arizona
appeared to be in serious trouble against
underdog Xavier, T.J. McConnell sparked his
Wildcats back to the brink of the Final Four.
McConnell scored 13 of his 17 points in
the second half, freshman Stanley Johnson
added 12 points, and second-seeded Arizona
made a dominant late rally for a 68-60 victory over sixth-seeded Xavier in the West
Regional seminals on Thursday night.
Kaleb Tarczewski had 12 points and 12
rebounds as the Wildcats (34-3) weathered a
major scare from the Musketeers (23-14) and
clamped down defensively during a gameending 19-7 run.
With its third Elite Eight berth in ve
years, Arizona gets another shot its rst
Final Four under coach Sean Miller, who led
Xavier for ve years until 2009.
The Wildcats will face top-seeded
Wisconsin (34-3) on Saturday at Staples
Center in a rematch of last seasons West
nal.
Its almost as if we had a summer to think
about it, and we have to somehow make that
to our advantage, Miller said.
Matt Stainbrook had 17 points and 10
rebounds in his nal game for Xavier, which
fell just short of its rst trip to the Elite Eight
since 2008. Those Musketeers were coached
by Miller and assistant Chris Mack, who
replaced his boss.

Michigan State game except it didnt go to overtime. We werent really playing our type of basketball. We were letting them have their way
and their will. All we needed was a couple plays
to get us going.
The teams shot exactly the same 46 percent for the game, but the Badgers improved
to 58 percent in the second half and made 20 of
23 free throws to keep their hopes of a second
straight Final Four berth alive.
These guys have been through a lot. Theyve
seen the good runs. Theyve seen the bad runs,
Badgers coach Bo Ryan said. But this group
never gets discouraged to the point where they
get down on themselves or their teammates, and
thats whats fun.
Brice Johnson and Justin Jackson scored 15
points each for the fourth-seeded Tar Heels (2612), who got within one with 4:21 remaining
but couldnt retake the lead. Paige finished with
12 points.
We wanted to pressure them and not allow
them to be comfortable, and we did that for the
most part, Paige said. The problem was we
couldnt finish our defense on key possessions.
The Tar Heels appeared to have the game in
hand when they were up by seven and Kaminsky
went down with his hands covering his eyes,
having gotten hit by Isaiah Hicks.
Turns out Frank the Tank was just getting
his team revved up.
With Kaminsky on the bench, the Badgers
launched the 19-7 run that put them back in
front, 65-60. Kaminsky quickly returned to hit a
3-pointer, and Showalter scored four straight,
including a layup off his own steal, putting the
red-clad Wisconsin fans in full-throated cheers.
Its just great to have so many voices understanding what needs to happen and what we need
to do out on the court, which was getting
stops, Kaminsky said, and then coming down
and getting good, easy looks at the bucket and
we were able to do so.
Carolinas Kennedy Meeks returned from a
sprained left knee last weekend to bother
Kaminsky early before getting in foul trouble.
Trailing by one, the Tar Heels outscored the
Badgers 14-6 to take their largest lead, 53-46.

Badgers struggled to make a shot.

an eye that was open even less than his usual
sleepy appearance.
Dekker carried the Badgers offensively with
15 points in the first half, including a layup that
just beat the buzzer to pull Wisconsin within
33-31, just the sixth time the Badgers trailed at
the break this season.
I just tried to stay on attack mode, Dekker
said. My shot wasnt falling like Id like it to
be, so I just tried to take it to the lane more and
get some easy buckets and just cause a difference
in there.

Russian lands triple axel, takes lead at worlds

By Justin Bergman
SHANGHAI Elizaveta Tuktamysheva has

been so far ahead of the rest of the womens figure skating field this season, she didnt think
twice about adding a much more difficult element to her repertoire of high-flying jumps.
It was far riskier to attempt it in the most
important event of the year.
The 18-year-old Russian landed a triple
axel on her first leap of the figure skating
world championships on Thursday, opening
up a big lead over the rest of the field after
the short program.
When I landed the triple axel, I got goosebumps and I thought, Is this a dream or did I
really just do the triple axel at the world championships? Tuktamysheva said.
In the pairs event, Canadian duo Meagan
Duhamel and Eric Radford wrapped up a perfect season by holding off two Chinese
teams in the free skate to capture the gold. It
was Canadas first pairs title since Jamie
Sale and David Pelletier won in 2001.
Only a handful of women skaters have sucCARLOS BARRIA/REUTERS cessfully landed a triple axel in international

had to do something for the team.
Adding more pressure to the lineup was the
loss of Crystal Springs cleanup hitter
Griffin Young. The senior center fielder experienced a scary moment in the second inning
when a fly ball got lost in the high sky of
Sea Cloud Park and struck him in the head.
He was removed from the game immediately, though Cannone said the move was only
for precautionary reasons.
He was not showing any signs of concussion-like symptoms, but we were going to
pull him until he could get evaluated by a
medical, Cannone said. Hes looking
good. Well know tomorrow but I think hes
going to be OK.
Griffin Youngs absence left a glaring hole
in the heart of the batting order. At that point
the Gryphons were already trailing 3-0 after
Harker had rallied for three runs in the top of
the first inning.
The Eagles got to Crystal Springs starting
pitcher Chris Flohr for four hits and a walk in
the frame, with a big two-run double from
cleanup hitter Dominic Cea.
Initially, it looked as though Ceas double
had only produced one run as the throw to the

plate beat back-runner Miles DeWitts
attempt to score from second base. But after
the tag was applied ahead of DeWitts crossing the dish, Gryphons catcher David Young
was called for obstructing the plate with
DeWitt being awarded the run. Cea later
scored on an infield throwing error.
Cannone stuck with Flohr, who soldiered
through four innings before taking over
behind the plate when reliever Joey Blundell
entered in relief to start the fifth.
[Flohr] struggled in terms of giving up
some runs, but we just werent playing well
behind him, Cannone said. A lot of it was
not his fault. A couple plays we could have
made and didnt, and hes probably out of there
giving up one instead of giving up three.
The Gryphons got on the board in the third
inning when Matt Mizota produced an RBI
single to score Leonard. Crystal Springs
stranded the bases loaded in the frame trailing 3-1 and would fall further behind in the
following inning when Harker added a pair
with a two-run double by Nate Kelly.
Again setting the table in the fifth inning,
Crystal Springs did not miss the opportunity
to break through. The inning started with a
Flohr single before Blundell and Leonard
walked to load the bases. David Young followed with a sharp infield single off the pitcher to drive home Flohr. Brandon Chu then
dropped a single to left to score Blundell.
ed the difficult jump in one of the biggest competitions of her career after only practicing it
for a couple months.
Its 50 percent I could land it and 50 percent I could miss it, anything could happen
with this jump, Tuktamysheva said.
However, I think that figure skating needs
to develop and many girls will do the triple
axel in the future. You have to do difficult
elements and you cannot stagnate.
Maybe we will even be doing quad (jumps)
in the future, who knows?
A year after inconsistent results kept her
off the Russian team for the Sochi
Olympics, Tuktamysheva is having a banner
season. She has captured seven titles in nine
events,
including
the
European
Championships and Grand Prix Finals, and
is now closing in on her first world title.
Skating to Maurice Ravels Bolero,
Tuktamysheva dazzled not just with her jumps
her footwork was crisp and her spins tight
and blisteringly fast.
She scored 77.62 points, the third-highest
short program tally since the International
Skating Union changed its judging system in
2004. Sixteen-year-old Elena Radionova of
Russia was more than eight points behind in
second, while Satoko Miyahara of Japan finMizota followed with the breakthrough
hit, driving a bases-clearing three-run double
to left field to give the Gryphons the lead. A
second-year varsity sophomore, Mizota had
16 previous hits in his varsity career all
singles.
I was looking for a strike, Mizota said.
I saw it coming inside and I thought I could
turn on it. It went a lot further than I thought
it would.
Tim Stiles added an RBI double to cap the
seven-run outburst. Then in the fifth, Harker
and Crystal Springs traded runs. The
Gryphons scored theirs on an RBI single by
Chu to drive home David Young.
With Harker rallying to tie it in the seventh, it marked the most runs Crystal
Springs has yielded in a single game this
season. The Gryphons battery had a different take on pitch calling, however, as pitching coach Joe Budinich who generally
calls the pitches was not present due to a
prior work commitment. So, the Gryphons
catchers called their own pitches Thursday.
I think they did a great job overall,
Cannone said.
Blundell earned the win through three
innings of relief, improving his record to 2-0.
With the win, Crystal Springs remains one
game back of first-place Mills. The two
teams go head-to-head for a two-game series
starting when PAL Lake Division resumes
April 14.
ished third on her 17th birthday.

While the Russians were out in front as
expected, the skaters believed to be their
biggest challengers, the Americans, faltered.
Both Gracie Gold and Ashley Wagner
struggled with their opening triple lutztriple toeloop combinations. Gold, the
bronze medalist in Sochi, took an extra step
on her triple lutz and didnt perform the second jump, and three-time U.S. champion
Wagner fell on her toeloop.
Gold was in eighth place after the short program, just behind American teammate Polina
Edmunds. Wagner was in 11th place.
For Gold, it was yet another disappointment
in a season shed rather forget. After pulling
out of the Grand Prix Finals in December with
a stress fracture in her foot, she failed to defend
her title at U.S. Nationals and finished fourth
at the Four Continents Championships.
Knowing that I can be in the top and Im
not there is frustrating, Gold said. Ive
just had so many ups and so many downs,
its not like me.
Wagner, too, was hoping for more consistency to break the United States nine-year
medal drought at worlds.
Today was a horrible day, theres no other
way to say it, Wagner said.

Rangers clinch playoff spot

with 5-1 win over Senators
OTTAWA, Ontario Chris

Kreider helped get the New York
Rangers back to the playoffs.
Kreider had two goals and an
assist and the New York Rangers
earned a postseason berth with a 51 win over the Ottawa Senators on
Thursday night.
We played pretty well away from
the puck and we were able to take it
home and get two points to clinch a
playoff spot, Rangers coach Alain
Vigneault said. Probably caught
their goalie on an off night and we
were able to capitalize early.
Dan Boyle, Mats Zuccarello and
Tanner Glass also scored for the
Rangers, who have 101 points.
You have to be able to handle
momentum swings and to be able
to answer with a goal is a big,
Kreider said.
The Rangers have reached the
playoffs in five consecutive seasons and in nine of the past 10
seasons.
Cam Talbot made 23 saves for
New York, which handed Ottawas
Andrew Hammond his first regulation-time loss.
Hammond allowed five goals on
22 shots and is 14-1-1 to start his
NHL career.
The Rangers also ended Ottawas
seven-game winning streak.
Curtis Lazar scored for the
Senators as they failed to collect at
least one point for just the second
time in their past 18 games.
New Yorks fifth goal knocked
Hammond out of the game late in
the second period.
Hammond was replaced by Chris
Chris Kreider
Driedger, who
made his NHL
debut. Driedger
finished with 10
saves.
The Rangers
took a 3-1 lead
into the second
period on two
goals
from
Kreider and one
from Boyle.
Kreider opened the scoring at
12:38 of the first after a fantastic
pass from Derek Stepan.
The Senators tied the game just
19 seconds later when Lazar gained
control of a bouncing puck in the
Rangers end and beat Talbot with a
quick shot from the faceoff circle.
Boyle gave the Rangers the lead
at 16:40, and with one minute left
in the period Kreider got his second goal of the game off a Stepan
rebound that bounced straight up
after Hammond made the initial
save.
I thought it was pretty sloppy
for the first 10 minutes or so and
then I think both teams did a good
job executing the second half of
that first period, Kreider said.
At 1:42 of the second period,
Zuccarello scored on a one-timer for
a 4-1 lead before Glass scored at
16:02 just five seconds after emerging from the penalty box.
Its one of many hopefully,
Glass said.
The Senators had a 5-on-3
advantage for 34 seconds, but didnt register a shot. They had just
one shot over the final 86 seconds
of the Glass minor.
Mirim Lee leads Kia Classic

CARLSBAD Mirim Lee birdied all four
par-5 holes and finished with a bogey-free
7-under 65 on Thursday to take the firstround lead in the Kia Classic.
Lee took the outright lead with an 8-foot
putt on the par-5 fifth her 14th hole in
her afternoon round at Aviara and hit a
wedge to 3 feet to set up her final birdie on
the par-5 eighth. The 24-year-old South
Korean player won LPGA Tour events last
year in Michigan and China.

Turmoil in Yemen escalates as rebels bombed

REUTERS
Shi'ite Muslim rebels hold up their weapons

during a rally against air strikes in Sanaa.
World in brief
Iran may run
centrifuges at fortified site
LAUSANNE, Switzerland The United
States is considering letting Tehran run hundreds of centrifuges at a once-secret, fortified underground bunker in exchange for
limits on centrifuge work and research and
development at other sites, officials have
told The Associated Press.
The trade-off would allow Iran to run several hundred of the devices at its Fordo facility, although the Iranians would not be
allowed to do work that could lead to an
atomic bomb and the site would be subject
to international inspections, according to
Western officials familiar with details of
negotiations now underway. In return, Iran
would be required to scale back the number
of centrifuges it runs at its Natanz facility
and accept other restrictions on nuclearrelated work.
Instead of uranium, which can be enriched
to be the fissile core of a nuclear weapon,
any centrifuges permitted at Fordo would be
fed elements such as zinc, xenon or germanium for separating out isotopes used in
medicine, industry or science, the officials
said. The number of centrifuges would not
be enough to produce the amount of uranium
needed to produce a weapon within a year
the minimum time-frame that Washington
and its negotiating partners demand.
SANAA, Yemen The turmoil in Yemen

grew into a regional conflict Thursday, with
Saudi Arabia and its allies bombing Shiite
rebels allied with Iran, while Egyptian officials
said a ground assault will follow the airstrikes.
Iran denounced the Saudi-led air campaign,
saying it considers this action a dangerous
step, and oil prices jumped in New York and
London after the offensive.
The military action turned impoverished and
chaotic Yemen into a new front in the rivalry
between Saudi Arabia and Iran.
Yemens U.S.-backed President Abed-Rabbo
Mansour Hadi, who fled the country Wednesday
as the rebels known as Houthis advanced on his
stronghold in the southern port of Aden, reappeared Thursday. He arrived by plane in Saudi
Arabias capital of Riyadh, Saudi state TV
reported.
Starting before dawn, Saudi warplanes
pounded an air base, military bases and anti-air-
PARIS Passengers with moments to live

screamed in terror and the pilot frantically
pounded on the locked cockpit door as a 27year-old German co-pilot deliberately and wordlessly smashed an Airbus carrying 150 people
into an Alpine mountainside.
The account Thursday of the final moments of
Germanwings Flight 9525 prompted some airlines to immediately impose stricter cockpit
rules and raised haunting questions about the
motive of the co-pilot, whose breathing never
wavered as he destroyed the plane and the lives
of those aboard.
We have no idea of the reason, Marseille

Prosecutor Brice Robin said, revealing the
chilling conclusions investigators reached after
reconstructing the final minutes of the flight
from the planes black box voice recorder. Copilot Andreas Lubitzs intention was to destroy
this plane.
French, German and U.S. officials said there
was no indication of terrorism. The prosecutor
did not elaborate on why investigators do not
suspect a political motive; instead theyre
focusing on the co-pilots personal, family
and professional environment to try to determine why he did it.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel, whose
nation lost 75 people on the flight, said the

conclusions brought the tragedy to a new, simply incomprehensible dimension. Devastated
families of victims visited the crash scene
Thursday, looking across a windy mountain
meadow toward where their loved ones died.
The Airbus A320 was flying from Barcelona
to Duesseldorf on Tuesday when it lost radio
contact with air traffic controllers and began
plunging from its cruising altitude of 38,000
feet, before slamming into the mountainside
eight minutes later.
The prosecutor laid out in horrifying detail
the final sounds heard in the cockpit extracted
from the mangled voice recorder.
Iraq troops start final push for Tikrit

TIKRIT, Iraq Iraqi troops started the final

phase of an offensive to recapture Saddam
Husseins hometown of Tikrit on Thursday, a
military official said, just hours after the United
States launched airstrikes on the Islamic Stateheld city.
The push, however, is going ahead without
the countrys Iran-backed Shiite militias, which
had been instrumental to the operation so far
and which backed out in protest over the U.S.
action.

direct military action.
In the air assault codenamed Operation
Decisive Storm, Saudi Arabia deployed some
100 fighter jets, 150,000 soldiers and other
navy units, Saudi-owned Al-Arabiya TV reported. Also involved were aircraft from the United
Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, Jordan,
Morocco, Sudan and Egypt, though it was not
clear which carried out actual strikes.
Once the airstrikes have weakened the rebels
and their allies in the military forces loyal to
former President Ali Abdullah Saleh, a ground

Saudi and other forces.
The assault will come from Saudi Arabia and
by landings on Yemens coasts along the Red

of the operation was not given.

innocent Iraqi lives while minimizing unintended damage to civilian structures. ISIL is one
of the acronyms for the Islamic State group.
A militia spokesman, Mouin al-Kadhimy,
said Thursday that many of the Shiite fighters

of the harmful involvement of U.S. airstrikes.
During the day, clashes intensified as Iraqi

Schwarzenegger back in iconic role

Terminator: Genisys coming in July
By Lindsey Bahr
LOS ANGELES Its a rare case

when a lms most iconic line
practically preordains its franchise.
As
promised,
The
Terminator, and the man who originated the steely machine
Arnold Schwarzenegger are
back for another go-around in
Terminator: Genisys.
With four lms (two great, two
questionable), over $1 billion in
box ofce receipts, and a jumbled
time-travel
mythology,
Terminator: Genisys is taking
the elements of James Camerons
1984 original and twisting them a
bit to create an entirely new timeline. Two more Terminators are
planned.
Getting a jump on a summer
thats chock full of franchise fare,
including continuations of The
Avengers and Jurassic Park,
Paramount Pictures recently showcased a few minutes of actionpacked footage from Terminator:
Genisys.
Key cast members, including
Schwarzenegger, were also made
available all to help generate
early buzz for what the studio
hopes will be a bona de summer
blockbuster.
Paramount is on a major push to
restore its once robust production
prowess. Although its franchises,
including Transformers and
Mission: Impossible, are successful, the studio has lagged
behind its Hollywood counterparts
in recent years.
Seated on a massive couch next
to his three new co-stars,
Schwarzenegger seemed glad to be
back. I watched all the movies
again to really get up to speed with
the character, he said.
The lm opens in a familiar spot
2029, when the war against the
all-powerful articial intelligence
system Skynet is raging.
Resistance leader John Connor
(Jason Clarke) once again sends
soldier Kyle Reese (Jai Courtney)
back to 1984 to save his mother,
Sarah Connor (Emilia Clarke),
from being killed by a Terminator.
But this time, things are different.

Sarah has her own protector: An
aged Terminator who has raised her
since childhood.
Were really harking back to
James Camerons original characters that were in one and two and
were taking it from there, said
Emilia Clarke.
The footage basically a trailer on steroids takes what fans
have already seen in the rst trailer, which debuted in December, and
gives everything a bit more context, like what happens when Kyle
pops up in 1984 and why that
school bus starts cartwheeling on
the Golden Gate Bridge, in addition to one massive secret.
The project on the whole is an
intensely hush-hush endeavor, but
director Alan Taylor (Thor: The
Dark World) has said many times
that, at its heart, the lm is about
mans relationship to technology
in the modern age. In 2015, that
idea has evolved from when James
Cameron rst introduced us to the
T-800 31 years ago.
In 84, this was total science
ction when machines take
over. And now, were there, said
Schwarzenegger. Thats the wild
thing about it. When we did this
movie, it was kind of almost reality, unlike in 1984 where we
thought, oh well wouldnt this be
a funny world. Things have
changed.
Jason Clarke jumped in to agree.
Good science ction is relatable. It mirrors what were going
through and Cameron set up wonderful, iconic metaphors and characters for us to play with, he said.
Judgment Day still exists. It just
might not be nuclear.
While there are many Terminator
die-hards out there waiting, as
Courtney says, to criticize this
thing, when it nally hits theaters on July 1, he believes theyll
be pleasantly surprised.
The beauty of what weve done
is not only stayed loyal to the
original source material but
opened it up to a whole new generation, said Courtney. I think
well succeed in bringing them
in.
Get Hard plays with stereotypes with mixed success

By sandy Cohen
While the stereotypes in Get

Hard may be gross exaggerations, its characters live in the
real world: A place where the
chasm between rich and poor is
vast and growing; where black
men are disproportionately jailed
and white-collar criminals often
evade punishment.
In this comedy from first-time
director Etan Cohen, James (Will
Ferrell) is a Los Angeles millionaire hedge-fund investor whose
life of indulgence and ignorance is
interrupted by a surprise prison
sentence for fraud. He turns to the
guy who runs the company car
wash, Darnell (Kevin Hart)
apparently the only black person

he has ever met and asks for
help to prepare for 10 years in
maximum security. Darnell has no
jail experience, but he agrees
because he needs money to buy a
home in a better school district for
his little girl.
When Darnells wife, Rita
(Edwina Findley Dickerson) the
films only voice of reason
asks what he did to give the
impression he had a criminal
record, he replies, I was being
black.
Darnells pre-jail prep class
includes transforming his students Bel-Air mansion into a pretend prison, the household staff
gleefully becoming its guards.
Lessons include getting James in
shape, teaching him how to fight

and encouraging him to practice
oral sex on men.
The first yields some laughs as
the 6-foot-3 Ferrell uses the
diminutive Hart as a barbell. But
forced sex isnt funny, no matter
whos doing the forcing or the
gender of the parties involved.
Get Hard traffics in other crude
humor involving more than one
look at Farrells naked tush and a
tiring amount of puns on the
films title.
Darnell knows one real ex-con,
his cousin Russell (an ultra-charismatic Tip T.I. Harris), whom he
turns to for actual help for James
behind bars. James hits it off with
Russell and his gangster pals
when he shows them how they can
liquidate two bricks of cocaine

into hedge funds to make more
money.
Wall Street, man. Those are the
real criminals, one gangster
says.
Right. This is supposed to be a
parody of the One Percent.
The film is guilty of occasionally underlining its jokes like this.
James even uses the phrase teachable moment after a heated racial
encounter and not ironically.
Stars and producers of Get
Hard defended the film after its
premiere at South by Southwest
last week, where some viewers and
critics called it racist and homophobic.
So when does satire become an

Buy, keep asparagus fresh for best flavor

By Sara Moulton
When shopping for asparagus, people

often focus on the wrong thing how
thick the stalks are. They think thinner is
better.
Truth is, asparagus can be delicious
regardless of how thick it is. More important is how fresh the asparagus is. Thats
where the avor is. Freshly-harvested
asparagus boasts a smooth, rm stalk and a
tight tip. When asparagus is past its prime,
the stalk starts to wrinkle and the tip begins
spreading out like a feather.
But vigilance for freshness doesnt stop
at the store. Once you get it home, you need
to keep it fresh. The best way to store
asparagus is to place the stalks with the
ends down in a bit of water in the refrigerator. If you lack that kind of room, at least
wrap the bottoms of the stalks in wet paper
towels. They should last three or four days
this way.
Regardless of how you plan to cook the
asparagus, the rst step in prepping it is to
get rid of the woody part of the stem at the
bottom of the stalks, either by breaking or
cutting it. But dont toss them out. I used to
do this, but Ive discovered they have a use!
In this soup, I add them to the broth to help
infuse it with avor, then discard them.
If Im working with asparagus that is
more than a 1/3-inch thick, I usually peel
the stems to ensure even cooking from the
tip to the bottom of the stalk. But were
making soup here, which means were
going to puree the asparagus, so theres no
need to peel. In fact, we want those peels.
They help to give the soup a bright green

color.
Speaking of color, it also helps to barely
cook the asparagus before pureeing it, and
to reheat it only briey after it is pureed. In
general, the longer a green vegetable
cooks, the grayer it becomes.
What makes this soup without cream so
creamy? Its the pureed vegetables that do
the trick, not only the asparagus, but also
the onion and that one lone Yukon Gold
potato.
By the way, this soup is equally good hot
or cold. Its a spring thing.
Fresh and creamy asparagus

soup with tarragon
Start to nish: 40 minutes
Servings: 4
1 1/2 pounds asparagus (about 1 1/2
bunches)
1 3/4 cups low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
1 3/4 cups water
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup thinly sliced yellow onion
1 small Yukon Gold potato (about 6
ounces), peeled and thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons lemon juice
Ground black pepper
Chopped fresh tarragon, to serve
Croutons, to serve
Cut off the bottom woody ends of the
asparagus, rinsing them if they are dirty and
reserve them. Cut off the tips of the asparagus and set them aside. Chop the stems into
1-inch lengths.
In a medium saucepan bring the broth and

water to a boil. Add the asparagus tips and
simmer until they are crisp tender, 1 to 3
minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer
them to a bowl. Set aside.
Add the reserved woody ends to the liquid,
bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer
for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a second medium saucepan
over medium, heat the oil. Add the onion
and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Pour the asparagus stock through a strainer into the saucepan with the onion, pressing on the asparagus ends to extract as much
liquid as possible. Discard the ends.
Add the potatoes and salt to the saucepan
and simmer until the potatoes are tender, 4
to 5 minutes. Add the chopped asparagus
stalks, then bring the stock to a boil and
simmer until the stems are barely blanched,

1 minute for thin stalks, 2 minutes for medium stalks and 3 minutes for thick stalks.
Working in batches, transfer the mixture
to a blender and carefully blend until
smooth, transferring the soup as it is pureed
to the empty saucepan. Stir in reserved
asparagus tips and the lemon juice. Season
with salt and pepper, then continue cooking
just until heated through. Divide between
serving bowls and top each portion with
tarragon and croutons.

LOCAL/FOOD
Bill would create labels

for nonmodified food
WASHINGTON Inspired by the popular

USDA organic label, House Republicans are
proposing a new government certification for
foods free of genetically modified ingredients.
The idea is part of an attempt to block
mandatory labeling of foods that include
genetically modified organisms, or GMOs.
The certification would be voluntary, says
Rep. Mike Pompeo, R-Kan., who is including
the idea in legislation he is introducing
Wednesday.
Pompeo says a government-certified label
would allow companies that want to advertise
their foods as GMO-free to do so, but it would
not be mandatory for others. The food industry, which backs Pompeos bill, has strongly
opposed individual state efforts to require
labeling, saying labels would be misleading
because GMOs are safe. The bill would also
override any state laws that require the labeling.

no longer meets current building code standards, does not comply with American
Disabilities Act regulations and the roof
needs $1 million in repair, among other
issues, according to a city report.
The library, which is proposed to be built
across the street from the municipal services building on a piece of city-owned property near the intersection of Chestnut Avenue
and El Camino Real, does not feature an adequate sprinkler system for fire safety or
plumbing system to handle the demand of
nearly 1,000 daily visitors, among other
issues, according to the report.
Gupta questioned the wisdom of asking
residents to pay for the construction of new
buildings while officials had let the current
facilities fall so far behind on upkeep.
These are problems I dont think are
going to be solved only by building a new
building, he said. We have to take care of
them.
City Manager Mike Futrell agreed with
Guptas concerns, but said the city plans to
keep maintaining the aging facilities, in
advance of potentially being able to build
new ones.
The plan is just to keep Band-Aiding
them as best we can, he said.
The municipal services buildings was
built roughly 50 years ago, and Futrell
noted rather than sinking significant
money into a structure that the city hopes to
soon replace, it would be better policy to
keep applying small fixes.

Rep. Robert Alley, D-Beals, has proposed

down, he said.
Councilwoman Karyl Matsumoto echoed
the concerns of Gupta, and questioned
whether the city had taken proper care of the
informational technology department,
which is slated to be included in the new fire
and police department.
Matsumoto said she wanted to ensure sensitive information stored on city servers
had been backed up properly, since they
were being housed in the municipal services
building, which is plagued with myriad
faults.
Futrell confirmed that the documents were
backed up at another location that had been
seismically retrofitted.
Mayor Rich Garbarino also expressed
frustration at the report stating the fire
department has leaked and flooded during
heavy rains which caused mold, because the
city recently renovated the station.
The city recently spent $2 million in federal grant money modernizing the station
housed below the municipal services building.
I dont know what we got for our money,
Garbarino said.
He expressed support for moving forward
with the effort to gather more information
about constructing the new civic center, but
questioned whether previous maintenance
efforts have been successful.
Im not saying we dont need to do something. We do. But my question is, we spent
that money, and what did we get for it? he
said.
Officials expect that building the civic
center project could cost roughly $168 million, if it were to be constructed by 2019.
Gupta said he also supported the direction
the city was taking in discussing new buildings, but made it clear that he would like to
see the citys current facilities well cared for
in the interim.
I fully support this new direction, and I
really like the design, but Id like to make
sure that we do not take more time than is
necessary, he said. And during that time,
we need to make sure necessary things are
maintained.

BOOM
900 Middleeld Road stands just as tall as
those two buildings and will feature a 900space parking garage that will be free to use
nights and weekends when the project is
completed later this year.
Increased trafc and lack of enough parking downtown have been residents two
major complaints related to the building
boom that has seen the construction of a
new Kaiser Permanente Medical Center and
264 apartments on Veterans Boulevard; 132
apartments on Main Street; and 116 apartments on Marshall Street.
Those projects are already completed as
nearby construction on six other will be
completed later this year or early next year
including the Box headquarters on
Middleeld Road; 133 apartments on Fuller
Street; 18 townhomes on Brewster Avenue;
471 apartments on Middleeld Road; 196
apartments on Main Street; and 305 apartments on Monroe Street.
The projects comprise 1,810 units of
housing and 313,000 square feet of ofces.
Redwood City has become desirable to
build in as eight other development proposals have reached the desk of Community
Development Director Aaron Aknin.
They include 229 units of housing in two
projects and 540,000 square feet of ofces
TPUMPS
Su said hell close his San Mateo doors at
the end of the month and relocate to Metro
Center Plaza in mid-April.
Customers took note of Sus customized
drinks made with loose-leaf teas and freshly
cooked tapioca balls. His friendly demeanor
and dedication to making sure everyone
leaves with a smile undoubtedly helped set
his shop apart as well.
Its been a lot of fun. I think thats really
the key component thats making myself,
the whole team, keep going. Su said. We
definitely want to think more positive and
enjoy the fun then just working here. So a
lot of teamwork and we receive a lot of support from our customers and thats definitely helping a lot for our operation.
Su said he wasnt quite sure what to expect
when he started his first venture into retail
by opening up Tpumps in June 2011 and
eventually left his career in the transportation and shipping industry.
But within a few short years, Tpumps
boomed with a youthful group of followers
willing to wait in long lines to enjoy a fresh
OFFENDERS
offenders to live more than 2,000 feet from
schools and parks where children gather, as
required by the ballot measure commonly
known as Jessicas Law. But they will have to
make the decision for individual cases.
The March 2 ruling applied only to registered sex-offender parolees in San Diego
County, but prison officials will apply the
ruling statewide. Some local governments
outside San Diego County also have begun
repealing their local residency restrictions in
response to the high courts ruling.
It will take about 60 days for the department to review the files of about 6,000 sex
offender parolees to decide if the restriction
should still apply, department spokesman
Luis Patino said. About half of the sex
offenders are considered child molesters, he
said.
Some people who are not pedophiles ...
will probably be removed from the restriction, Patino said. It will be tailored to people who need it the most.
That will help the department by reducing
the large number of sex offenders whose
whereabouts must be monitored to determine
if they are violating the residency law, he
said. It also is expected to reduce the number
of sex offenders who registered as transient

in six projects.
The City Council adopted its Downtown
Precise Plan in 2011 but a California
Environmental Quality Act lawsuit led
against the city delayed the construction of
many of the projects until recently, Aknin
said.
For a long time, there was not a lot built
in downtown, said Aknin, who previously
worked for the cities of Palo Alto and San
Bruno.
The two biggest complaints he hears from
downtown business owners is the lack of
parking not just for customers but for
employees, as well, and, of course, the
increased trafc in the area.
Mayor Jeff Gee said that 20 years ago
Redwood City was not desirable to invest
in.
Former councils mapped out a plan to
attract the downtown cinema and to invest
in Courthouse Square that have become the
foundation for all the recent growth, Gee
said.
The councils since have embraced the
vision, he said.
Aknin meets at least twice a month with
Redwood City San Mateo County Chamber
of Commerce members to discuss all the
changes and to hear their concerns.
One of the citys main goals with all the
new projects is to make sure the city puts an
emphasis on not just attracting new retail to
the area but retaining the shops and restaurants that already exist.
Business retention is more important
than business attraction, Aknin said.

The citys boom has proven companies
want to locate downtown and the City
Council is currently strategizing ways to
get developers to fund affordable housing,
arts and parks projects in exchange for
building in the city.
Some residents, however, have taken to
social media to express their disdain with
all the growth.
The Facebook group Redwood City
Residents Say: What? has become a
sounding board for those who decry the
citys transformation.
Well, I have to say that we are so disgusted, we are putting our house on the market on 4/1 and moving to Oregon ... If I
wanted to live in Manhattan, I would have
moved to NYC long ago..., Roy Pugh
wrote on the groups page.
Daniel Curry wrote: You know its beginning to feel like Bush and Sutter ... in San
Francisco. No sunlight and trafc is bad. Let
alone the lack of parking.
Barbara Anne Kirkman wrote: I think
that I am going to write a book and entitle it
Seven Steps In How To Destroy A City.
First Chapter: City Council!
But even some on the council are concerned with the speed at which the projects
are being built.
When the council adopted the downtown
precise plan in 2011, Councilman Ian Bain
suspected it would take 10 to 15 years for a
lot of the approved projects to be constructed.
Its played out a lot faster than I expected, said Bain, who rst joined the council
in 1998.
The council has some difcult decisions
to make when it comes to mitigating
increased trafc created by new projects, he
said.
Bain wants to make sure there is a balance
between the amount of housing built in relation to ofces.
Weve created policies to make it easier
to build more housing in the city but ofce
is the hot market right now and Im very
concerned of shifting the balance in the
plan, Bain said.
Bain thinks the pace of development
needs to slow down and that new projects
bring benets to the community.
He wants to make sure downtown is a destination for city residents and not just outof-town workers who will ll up the ofces.
Downtown should be a place for families,
he said.
One of the things Im concerned about is
that I dont want to lose the family fun and
not just downtown, he said.
With the loss of Mels Bowl and Malibu
Grand Prix, there is a need to insert some
fun back into the city, Bain said.
Gees vision for the city is for it to
become an entertainment mecca for the people who live between San Jose and San
Francisco.
He reminds people, too, that all the construction impacts, although substantial, are
only temporary.
sip of Sus concoctions, allowing him to

open up shops in Burlingame, San
Francisco, Cupertino and most recently Los
Angeles.
Despite closing his signature locale, Su
said he plans to continue expanding and
after Foster City, which will provide a similar about-1,100-square-foot spot, will seek
a larger space where he can offer seating.
Its a big surprise to me, like I said, Id
never done retail business before and to see
customers enjoy the product and the
response, its overwhelming. Its definitely
a big surprise, Su said.
When asked what sets him apart from
other boba tea stores, which have sprouted
around the Bay Area and downtown San
Mateo in particular, Su said its his process
and the increasingly popular ability for customers to customize their orders.
Other stores, they dont offer what we
offer, which is freshly brewed tea from loose
tea leaves, not from tea bags, not to cook
the tapioca too fast, to try to make them in
the quality that people enjoy more. So I
dont really think that Im doing a lot of
specialty or very unique tea beverages, but I
think its just the quality and amount of
effort that we pour into making that drink,
Su said.
And Tpumps fan agree.
Kristina Andersen, a senior at San Mateo

High School, made what she called a typical
boba tea run for her friends and teachers
Thursday afternoon.
I like how you can mix flavors because
all of the other [shops,] its pretty much
like mango, green tea or peach. But this is
the first one I went to where you can mix flavors. And then everyone kind of started
jumping on the bandwagon and then after
this, [other boba tea stores] opened up,
Andersen said. But I think this one stayed
the most popular because you can still mix
flavors. I think everyones kind of like try-
ing to steal that idea.

Andersen, a Foster City resident, said
shes excited Tpumps will still be close by
and more accessible when she has a latenight craving.
Andersen was sure to leave a loving
remark for Su and Tpumps employees by
signing a large poster hanging in the downtown San Mateo locale.
Su pointed to one signature in particular
saying it was sentiments like this that have
kept him going.
Thanks for making my senior year bearable, a high school customer wrote.
because they could not find permanent housing that met the restrictions.
States across the U.S. have imposed a wide
variety of residency restrictions on sex
offenders, although many have faced legal
challenges, and some Legislatures have
rolled back their limits. The California Sex
Offender Management Board said Iowa,
Georgia and Oklahoma either rescinded or
changed their residency restrictions, sometimes also tailoring restrictions to individual
sex offenders.
The California ruling, and the change in
policy, do not affect a different law that will
continue to bar certain high-risk child
molesters from living within a half-mile of
any K-12 public or private school.
It does not change other parts of the law,
including a requirement that sex offenders
whereabouts be monitored with tracking
devices. Registered sex offenders also still
must tell local law enforcement agencies
where they live.
Sen. Jim Nielsen, R-Gerber, who once
headed the state parole board, said the department is broadly interpreting the courts decision and putting the public at risk.
I hope this is not an open door that the
department can place child molesters or
rapists across the street from a school, added
Board of Equalization member George
Runner, who co-authored Jessicas Law with
his wife, Sen. Sharon Runner, R-Lancaster,
when both were in the Legislature.
