A lawsuit challenging the


approval by the San Carlos City
Council to restripe Holly Street
into four lanes and to restrict parking on the citys main gateway
was dismissed by a judge Monday,
City Attorney Greg Rubens said.
Residents Rick Martinez and
Alicia Cabrera filed the lawsuit in
September arguing that the council vote allowing the changes to
Holly Street was invalid because
residents were not given enough

notification about the vote and


that the city did not first undertake
an environmental impact report
on the project.
In July, the council voted 3-2,
with councilmen Matt Grocott and
Cameron Johnson dissenting, to
prohibit parking on Holly Street
between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. on
weekdays as a way to ease congestion by restriping the road to have
two lanes in both directions.
But Martinez contends that,
since the project was completed,
motorists are speeding on Holly

Foreign business leaders build


new relationships in Millbrae
Members from Chinese business delegation gather with elected officials
By Austin Walsh

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Millbrae officials hosted business leaders


from China on Monday afternoon to return
the hospitality received during an earlier
trip by local government representatives
across the Pacific Ocean, as the two communities continue developing a burgeoning
relationship.
Roughly 75 people from San Mateo
County and Dongguan, China, gathered in
the banquet room at Tai Wu restaurant, at
300 El Camino Real, to mingle and enjoy a
meal while discussing mutually beneficial
business opportunities.
Mayor Robert Gottschalk represented the
city of Millbrae, along with councilmembers Marge Colapietro and Wayne Lee, at
the event which featured members of the
local and international business community.
Gottschalk traveled to China last year,
along with officials from other communities in San Mateo County, to promote the
economic vitality of Silicon Valley.
This is very valuable for both areas,
said Baron Suen, chairman of the San Mateo
County-China Trade Office. We are trying
to get both countries to understand each
other more.
Dongguan is located in the Guangdong
Province in southern China, and is home to
a thriving manufacturing industry, as well as
an ambitious foreign investment sector.
Gottschalk said there are similarities
between Dongguan and Millbrae, citing
their proximity to nearby sources of investment and economic development.
Dongguan is in the same province as
Shenzhen and Hong Kong, two of the most
economically robust communities in the
world.

Gottschalk noted the nearness of Millbrae


to San Francisco International Airport and
Silicon Valley, the major business hubs in
Northern California.
Suen said the event offered a chance for
matchmaking between business leaders and
investors hoping to develop their portfolio
with companies from across the Pacific
Ocean.
This is the trend for Chinese investors
looking for opportunities in America, he
said. And we want to build a bridge between
the two areas.
Suen said Millbrae was the perfect home
for the event, because of the significant
Chinese population in the city, and the connection that remains between the communities.
More than 40 percent of Millbraes residents are of Asian descent, according to
2010 Census Bureau data.
Colapietro said the event was a valuable
opportunity to foster bonds that could be
fruitful for the local economy.
Its very important for Millbrae to establish strong relationships with other business communities, she said. And we hope
to strengthen our citys financial sustainability.
Lee echoed those sentiments.
This is a seamless approach to getting
established, he said. We want to stimulate
and boost our economy, and this is a natural
opportunity to do that.
Lee also noted it was in the best interest
of many communities in San Mateo County
to build foreign relationships, in hopes to
establish a regional reputation as a center of

economic development.
Outside of officials from Millbrae, many
other local officials were represented at the
lunch.
Dave Pine, from the county Board of
Supervisors, was present, along with
Redwood City Mayor Jeff Gee, Brisbane
Councilwoman Lori Liu, representatives
from the office of state Sen. Jerry Hill, DSan Mateo, and many more.
Prior to the lunch, members of the
Chinese delegation had an opportunity to
tour the city of Millbrae with and meet with
elected officials.
Gottschalk said that he intends to travel
to China this summer, which he hopes will
further develop the relationship between
Millbrae and representatives
from
Dongguan and other business communities
in the region.
Meeting with the Dongguan trade delegation is a great opportunity for cities in San
Mateo County. Expanding investment and
trade between our communities and China is
going to benefit all parties involved, he
wrote in a prepared statement. I have traveled to China several times and I know that
they want to do more business with us.I am
very pleased that we have been able to make
this lunch happen.

State leaders use private email


By Michael R. Blood
and Julliet Williams
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO Gov. Jerry Brown, Lt.


Gov. Gavin Newsom and other top elected
officials in California acknowledge using
personal email accounts to conduct government business, and its not clear if their private exchanges are retained as public
records or subject to disclosure.
An Associated Press survey of email use
by the states four legislative leaders and
eight top elected officers found a loose
patchwork of practices under which private
electronic conversations while on the job
are alternately commonplace, infrequent or
discouraged.

The use of private emails by public officials has come under increased scrutiny as
former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham
Clinton faces sharp criticism for using a private email account while at the State
Department and acknowledging she deleted
thousands of messages.
California has no blanket policy restricting the use of personal email for government-related activities. Advocates warn that
the gap in the law gives officials the opportunity to hold private electronic discussions
on state matters with lobbyists or political donors, for example that could be
erased or edited with the push of a computer
key or tap of a cellphone.
There is always a cloud hanging over a
public official who is not using an official
email to conduct the publics business, said
Kathay Feng, executive director of
California Common Cause, which promotes
government transparency.

BevMo cashier gets


45 days for embezzlement
A former BevMo cashier was sentenced to 45 days in jail and three years
of probation Friday after pleading no
contest to charges that she embezzled
more than $10,500 from the retailers
Burlingame location, San Mateo
County prosecutors said.
Prosecutors said Mary Carmen
Vasquez, a 25-year-old San Mateo resident, embezzled $10, 597 between
October 2013 and January 2014 by
logging fraudulent cash refunds for
returned items like keg taps and tub
deposits.
Vasquez made roughly 95 false
returns and pocketed the cash.
Several of those returns were documented on store surveillance cameras,
according to prosecutors.
When confronted, Vasquez reportedly admitted to stealing roughly
$1,000, prosecutors said.
In November, Vasquez pleaded no
contest to felony embezzlement
charges in exchange for a maximum
sentence of 45 days in jail.
Judge Jonathan Karesh denied a
motion to reduce the felony to a misdemeanor, but said he would reconsider
after the defendant serves half of her
probation term.

Vasquez has also


been ordered to pay
$5, 216 in restitution to BevMo, in
addition to court
fees. As part of her
probation, Vasquez
will be barred from
employment with
duties,
Mary Vasquez fiduciary
prosecutors said.
Vasquezs
defense
attorney,
Raymond Buenaventura, could not be
immediately reached for comment
Monday.

Police: Missing college athlete


died on Los Angeles freeway
A University of California, Berkeley
soccer player who disappeared after a
weekend party was killed by a car as he
ran across a Los Angeles freeway,
police said Monday.
The 19-year-old freshman, Eloi
Vasquez, died early Saturday on eastbound Interstate 10 about a mile from
the University of Southern California
after he was seen leaving a fraternity
party.
A woman said a man ran in front of
her and she was unable to avoid hitting
him, said Officer Edgar Figueroa, a
CHP spokesman. The man was struck
just east of Vermont Avenue. The
investigation is ongoing.
Vasquez was pronounced dead at the
scene. He was not carrying identification, which set off a missing persons
search until the coroner could identify
him.
Vasquez, who was on spring break in
Los Angeles, had left the party to take
a walk with no money and no wallet,
family and police said.

Roofer charged with allegedly

Barack Obama delivers remarks at the dedication ceremony for the Edward M. Kennedy
Institute for the United States Senate.

Obama: Politicians should carry


themselves more like Kennedy
By David Espo and Nedra Pickler
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BOSTON President Barack Obama summoned todays quarrelsome political leaders


on Monday to emulate the late Sen. Edward
M. Kennedy in the pursuit of compromise,
and said a new institute that bears the longtime Massachusetts senators name can be
as much an antidote to political cynicism as
the man once was.
What if we carried ourselves more like
Ted Kennedy? What if we were to follow his
example a little bit harder? the president
asked a crowd of family, former aides and
political dignitaries of both parties under a
tent in raw weather just outside the doors of

the Edward M. Kennedy Institute.


To his harshest critics who saw him as
nothing more than a partisan lightning rod,
that might sound foolish, the president
added. But there are Republicans here for a
reason.
Among them were former Senate Majority
Leader Trent Lott of Mississippi, who is on
the institutes board of directors, and Sen.
John McCain of Arizona, who said he
recalled how much he enjoyed fighting with
the Massachusetts colleague in the Senate.
Its getting harder to find someone who
loves a good fight as much as he did, said
McCain, who has spoken less highly of tea
party-aligned members of his own party
with whom he has had differences. The
place hasnt been the same without him.

The owner of a Burlingame roofing company faces 10 felony charges for allegedly
storing and disposing of hazardous materials
at storage facilities, according to the San
Mateo County District Attorneys Office.
Willis Unga, 63, was arraigned Friday on
accusations of renting storage units in
Redwood City and Burlingame and then storing paint, industrial cleaning agents, ammonia and coating stripper that were previously
stored at Unga Roofing and Waterproofing
in Burlingame on Davis Road.
Unga was warned in 2009 by the San
Mateo County Environmental Health
Division about storing large quantities of
used and unused paint containers at the warehouse, according to the District Attorneys
Office.
In 2013, Unga rented storage units from
Bair Island Mini Storage in Redwood City
and Public Storage in Burlingame where he
allegedly stored the hazardous materials.
He also allegedly stopped paying rent on
the storage units, according to the District

Attorneys Office.
The units were eventually opened after Unga
allegedly stopped paying
rent and did not return.
The hazardous materials
were
discovered
by
employees who said cans
were stacked to the ceiling.
Willis Unga
The loss to Bair Island
was about $71,000, which includes rental
income loss and the cost to remove the hazardous materials.
The loss to Public Storage was about
$18,000, according to the District
Attorneys Office.
Unga is being charged with treating or
storing hazardous waste at an unauthorized
facility; depositing hazardous material on
the property of another; and commercial burglary and grand theft.
Unga was arraigned Friday and was in custody on $75,000 bail.
He entered a plea of not guilty and will be
back in court April 1.

Federal agents charged with


stealing digital currency
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Two former federal


agents were charged with fraud in the theft
of digital currency during an investigation
into an online black market known as Silk
Road that let users buy and sell drugs and
other illegal items, authorities said
Monday.
Former U.S. Secret Service special agent
Shaun W. Bridges, 32, of Laurel, Maryland,
appeared in federal court in San Francisco
but didnt enter a plea.
He has been charged with wire fraud and
money laundering. He was later released on
$500,000 unsecured bond. His attorney,
Steven Levin, declined to comment.
Bridges is accused of diverting more than
$800,000 in digital currency to his person-

al account after gaining control of the


funds during the Silk Road investigation.
The complaint alleges that Bridges
placed the assets into a now-defunct digital
currency exchange in Japan then wired
funds into one of his personal investment
accounts in the U.S.
The criminal complaint was filed in the
U.S. District Court in San Francisco on
Wednesday and unsealed Monday.
Carl M. Force, 46, of Baltimore, a former
special agent with the Drug Enforcement
Administration, also has been charged in
the case.
He was expected to make an appearance
in court Monday and remain in custody
pending a detention hearing on Thursday.
His attorney Ivan Bates did not immediately returns calls for comment.

Saudi-led forces strike


Shiite rebels in Yemen
By Ahmed Al-Haj
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SANAA, Yemen Saudi-led


naval forces imposed a blockade
on Yemens ports as coalition
airstrikes on Monday repelled an
advance on the southern port city
of Aden by Shiite rebels and forces
loyal to a former president, in
what appeared to be the most
intense day of fighting since the
air campaign began five days ago.
The move to block ports
appeared aimed at preventing the
rebels, known as Houthis, from
rearming, and comes after the
coalition achieved full control of
the skies and bombed a number of
rebel-held airports. The rebels are
supported by Iran, but both Iran
and the Houthis deny Tehran has
armed them.
As night fell, intense explo-

sions could be heard throughout


the rebel-held capital Sanaa,
where warplanes had carried out
strikes since the early morning.
Military officials from both sides
of the conflict said that airstrikes
were targeting areas east and south
of the third largest city of Taiz, as
well as its airport, while naval
artillery and airstrikes hit coastal
areas east of Aden.
Its like an earthquake, Sanaa
resident Ammar Ahmed said by
telephone. Never in my life have
I heard such explosions or heard
such raids.
He said he could hear missiles
whistling through the air and see
flames rising from a military area
in the southern neighborhood of
Faj Attan, where Scud missiles are
believed to be stored.
Saudi Brig. Gen. Ahmed Asiri,
the coalition spokesman, told

reporters in Riyadh that naval
forces are blocking the movement
of ships to prevent weapons and
fighters from entering or leaving
Yemen. He said they had not yet
intercepted anything.
The airstrikes have targeted at
least nine of Yemens 21
provinces and have prevented the
Houthis from reaching Aden, the

former capital of the once-independent south, where President


Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi
declared a temporary capital after
fleeing rebel-controlled Sanaa.
Hadi, who was a close U.S. ally
against a powerful local al-Qaida
affiliate, fled the country last
week, but remains Yemens internationally recognized leader.

Iran nuclear talks near deadline; differences remain


By George Jahn
and Matthew Lee
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LAUSANNE, Switzerland
Negotiations over Irans nuclear
program reached a critical phase
Monday with diplomats struggling to overcome substantial differences just a day before a deadline for the outline of an agreement.
With Tuesdays target date for a
framework accord just hours away,

the top diplomats from the five


permanent members of the U.N.
Security Council and Germany
were meeting with Iran to try to
bridge remaining gaps and hammer out an understanding that
would serve as the basis for a final
accord to be reached by the end of
June.
We are working late into the
night and obviously into tomorrow, said U.S. Secretary of State
John Kerry, who has been meeting with his Iranian counterpart
Mohammad Javad Zarif in

Lausanne since Thursday in an


intense effort to reach a political
understanding on terms that would
curb Irans nuclear activities in
exchange for sanctions relief.
There is a little more light
there today, but there are still
some tricky issues, Kerry said.
Everyone knows the meaning of
tomorrow.
Kerry and others at the table
said the sides have made some
progress, with Iran considering
demands for further cuts to its uranium enrichment program but

pushing back on how long it must


limit technology it could use to
make atomic arms. In addition to
sticking points on research and
development, differences remain
on the timing and scope of sanctions removal, the officials said.
German Foreign Minister
Frank-Walter Steinmeier said
Irans expectations from the talks
are very ambitious and not yet
acceptable to his country or the
other five negotiating: the U.S.,
Britain, China, France and
Russia.

California and water
Editor,
This state (California) is by denition a desert. Any place with less than
20 inches of annual rainfall is a
desert.Per the Census Bureau, this
states population is growing at
500,000 per year.This means showers, toilet ushes, cooking and other
water needs for millions of new residents.
Low-ow toilets and less lawns are
not going to generate enough water to
solve the problem. Money doesnt
seem to be a problem: we are building
a train that goes nowhere, costing billions of dollars. Maybe we could put
that money to a more productive use.
How about increasing reservoir capacity, new dams or desalinization
plants?

Intrusion
Editor,
When I picked my daughter up from
school recently, the rst thing she
said was, We planned for an intruder
today.
The term intruder seemed a good
choice. My heart goes out to school
personnel tasked with preparing an
elementary school student who watches the Disney Channel mostly and
still sleeps with the light on, for a
school mass murder. But I have to say I
was not prepared for this to be todays
post pickup conversation from the
back seat. Despite the horric events
in movie theaters, schools and synagogues in recent years, is still makes
me numb and seems incomprehensible.
What do you mean, sweetheart, by
an intruder?
Someone with a gun who might
come to school and try to kill us.
Mommy, my legs were shaking. Why
would someone do that to a child? I
just cant understand it. If I am supposed to run down to the lower eld
and through the trees, I asked what if
we fall or get hurt and my teacher said
whats more important, living or getting hurt? She said to keep running all
the way to the re station to let them
know.
And apparently, it doesnt end there.
Tomorrow were going to practice.
My teacher will pull that shelf near
that corner reading area across the
back of the door. My job is to pull the
shades down. But what if he sees me,
mommy. Im scared that while Im
doing it, hell see us and shoot me.
And if he gets into our classroom,
were supposed to try to jump on him
and kill him.
With gratitude to the schools for

Blight at three corners


Editor,
There are two building on Second
Avenue that I would like to comment
on: the Vendome and the Friendship
Hall in San Mateo, which are very well
kept up. You will always see someone
in front sweeping not only the sidewalk but even the street. These people
have taken pride in keeping these
buildings clean.
There should have been an ordinance
years ago for all of San Mateo to keep
every community from blight. I invite
our city councilmembers to walk down
Second Avenue starting at Delaware
Street to Idaho Street. The constant
illegal dumping of not just trash but of
furniture seems to be always at the
same location. What is the ne for
dumping?
We have an increase of shopping
carts from Safeway,
CVS/pharmacyand otherstores that
are dumped on our sidewalks. There are
people with wooden food carts that are
not licensed selling food in North
Central. On the corner of Second
Avenue and HumboldtStreet the city is
allowing a fruit standto be set up.
This is one of the busiest street corners in North Central. Its a two-way
street that does not accommodate two
cars.
City Hall made a new vehicle parking code that did nothing to help
North Centralwiththeir residential
parking problem.In fact, we have
triple the amount of dump trucks
parkedon our streets.Wealso have a
shoppingcartpickupservice, but why
are these stores letting these carts
leave their premises? Also, who is
paying for this service?
Lets start making these landlords
responsible for their tenants
actions.The public shouldknow that
there will be a ne to be paid for illegal dumping and removing shopping
carts from their premises. The lack of
concern comes from our City Council.

In case you didnt yet look at the
map, pro-Iranian forces have just
taken over Yemen. U.S. Special Forces
were ordered to evacuate, presumably
for fear of upsetting Iran. This devastating event gives Iran control over
not only the Straits of Hormuz, but
also over access to the Suez Canal. Yet
the Obama administration and its supporters are throwing a tantrum about
opposition to a nuclear deal with Iran

Obama and Iran nuclear deal


Editor,
The Obama administration has told
us that indicted U.S. Army deserter
Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, who our president
swapped for ve Talibanterrorists,
served with honor and distinction.
Our president told us ISIS was the JV
team.
When he pulled all our troops out of
Iraq, he told us that country was safe,
secure and self sufcient. Later he
reassured Americans that the tide of
war was receding. The terrorist attack
on Benghazi? According to our president, that was provoked by stupid
Americans making stupid videos. And
what about the presidents red line in

we trust the word of this president on a

Voters stand
up to big labor

n a previous column, I discussed that in politics,


you and I the American voters are an external
force that has the capacity to fundamentally influence the success of candidates and public policies that
navigate the direction of our nation. I also discussed the
need for voters to vote for what is best for their communities, rather than feeling bound by allegiances, or concerns about who is most right, rather than what is most
right.
Some have called me naive for suggesting that this
should make voters feel empowered to make a difference
in the policies that govern our nation. After all, we
know that interest groups play a key role in influencing
our political system through their large-scale financing
power. However, the goal of influencing the American
voter is often the same, which means that power is still
ultimately vested in the hands of the American voter.
On March 17, Bay Area voters reaffirmed their belief in
that power in the special election to fill the state senate seat
representing the East Bay
counties of Contra Costa and
Alameda a seat that was formerly held by democrat Mark
DeSaulnier. Many thought this
was a typical election that
would be determined by the
strong arm financing power of
labor unions. Oddly enough,
Jonathan Madison
this time labor unions targeted
resources to defeat Steve Glazer a moderate democrat
and former aide to Gov. Jerry Brown.
You may find yourself questioning why labor unions
would use big money to defeat a democrat on the ballot,
particularly when the candidate has been an aide to a
governor who is an avid supportive of big labor. The
answer is quite simple. Just two years ago, you may
recall two historic strikes by Bay Area Rapid
Transportation (BART) employees that cost the region
nearly $73 million in worker productivity and delayed
about 400,000 BART commuters for weeks.
While most labor-friendly democrats refused to stand
up to the labor unions, Steve Glazer then a candidate
for Assembly ardently condemned the transit strikes.
He should be commended not for speaking out
against the transit strikes, but for having the courage to
advocate for commuters in the face of intense pressure
from big labor and other liberal advocates to act in the
contrary. To many, this was no surprise as Glazer is
known to be a pragmatic business friendly candidate.
Labor unions did not take his words lightly, to say the
least. In fact, labor unions successfully rallied to defeat
Glazer in the June 2014 primary. To my pleasant surprise, voters acted in their own best interests in the
March 17 special election, despite being barraged by
advertisements from left-leaning groups via the radio,
primetime TV and direct mail. Glazer successfully utilized the support of many to successfully defeat three of
his five opposing candidates. He will now face a runoff
against democrat Susan Bonilla on May 19.
Just after the election, Glazer released a statement
calling the election results positive evidence that voters want a fiscally responsible bipartisan problem
solver who is independent from powerful special interests. I think we can all agree that this is what all of us
crave in a candidate. The problem is that candidates like
Glazer are a diamond in the rough, particularly in this
day in age, when too few of our public servants are willing to break party lines to advocate for the betterment
of the lives of the constituents that elected them.
I urge all of you to keep an eye on Glazers runoff election as the results may further jolt the political landscape. The results of this special election are proof that
beyond the present historically low rate of voter turnout
and disengagement, at least some voters are deciding to
vote for their interests rather than a special interest yes
man. This is what our system ultimately depends on
you and I working to elect those that truly represent us.
I hope you will stand with me in working to make
informed voter turnout the determining tide in every
election going forward.

Horizon Pharma Plc. (HZNP), up $3.97 to $25.78
The drug developer is buying Hyperion Therapeutics Inc. for $1.1 billion,
adding two genetic disorder drugs to its portfolio.
Catamaran Corp. (CTRX), up $11.51 to $59.83
The nations largest health insurer, UnitedHealth Group Inc., will buy the

The drug developer said its potential treatment for pain related to diabetic
neuropathy did not meet its main goal in a key study.

Encouraging U.S. economic data and


a batch of corporate deals put investors
in a buying mood Monday, sending
stocks sharply higher.
The broad rally nudged the Dow
Jones industrial average back into positive territory for the year after a rough
stretch for the market most of last
week.
Traders welcomed a government
report showing that consumer spending and incomes rose in February.
Another report hinted at strong start to
the spring buying season.
Energy stocks were among the
biggest gainers, bucking a slide in the
price of crude oil. Several drugmakers
soared on merger news.
You had all the elements today for a
positive market, said Quincy Krosby,
market strategist for Prudential
Financial.
The Dow rose 263.65 points, or 1.5
percent, to 17,976.31. The 30-company index was up as much as 295
points. Its now up 0.9 percent for the
year.
The Standard & Poors 500 index
rose 25.22 points, or 1.2 percent, to
2,086.24, while the Nasdaq composite
gained 56.22 points, or 1.2 percent, to
4,947.44. Both indexes are also up for
the year.

Investors have their eye on economic data as they look ahead to the next
round of corporate earnings, beginning next week. While a clutch of
weaker-than-expected data sent the
market lower much of last week, positive economic news got Mondays
rally going early.
In Europe, a survey from the
European Commission showed that
economic sentiment across the 19country eurozone was at its highest
level since July 2011. In Asia, Chinese
stocks soared on hopes of more economic stimulus.
In the U.S., the government said that
consumer spending edged up 0.1 percent in February following two straight
monthly declines, while consumers
incomes rose a solid 0.4 percent. The
National Association of Realtors
reported that its index of pending home
sales rose to its highest level since
June 2013.
Todays data suggest that the economy is going to be stronger in the next
quarter starting in April, Krosby said.
Expectations that any increase in the
Federal Reserves key interest rate this
year will be gradual also helped lift the
market. On Friday, Federal Reserve
Chair Janet Yellen said in a speech that
continued improvement in the U.S.
economy means an increase in the
Feds key interest rate could come later
this year, but would likely be gradual.

Investors blame bad advice


from brokers for big losses
By Bernard Codon
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Susan Bernardo trusted her stockbroker. She wound up losing a fortune.
Her broker, David Harris, advised her
to sell $400,000 worth of relatively
safe municipal bonds, she says, and
sink the proceeds into real estate and
energy partnerships in hopes of earning more income. She had received the
money from a settlement after her husband died in an accident and needed it
to raise her small son.
More than six years later, those
investments are in trouble. The stream
of interest payments she used for living expenses has mostly dried up and
the value of her portfolio is half of
what it was, according to a financial

planner who helped her file a claim


against the broker.
Bernardo says Harris never told her
how risky the new investments were,
or about the fat 5 percent commission
that brokers typically get selling
them. Harris hasnt returned calls seeking comment.
That her broker might not have acted
in her best interest never occurred to
her, until recently.
I thought, `OK, someone is watching over me, says Bernardo, now 57,
of Wantagh, New York. Maybe I was
naive.
The Obama administration thinks
too many brokers arent looking out
for their clients, and instead pushing
risky and costly investments in a rush
for big commissions. The White
House is backing a proposed rule it

hopes will help end the practice. The


new rule would require brokers handling retirement accounts to put the
interest of their clients ahead of their
own, a so-called fiduciary standard
long required of lawyers, doctors and
some financial professionals like registered investment advisers.
Under the current rule, brokers must
limit their recommendations to what is
suitable for clients based on their
financial situation and appetite for
risk. Thats too weak, critics say.
Brokers dont have to offer cheaper
alternatives or keep an eye on the
investments. Critics say this current
rule has allowed brokers to invest too
much of their clients money in highfee mutual funds that erode returns over
the years, or put it in risky products
that can wallop them with losses.

Mullin reportedly replacing Lavin at St. Johns


By Jim OConnell
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK St. Johns has decided its


basketball future rests with the best of its past.
Chris Mullin, St. Johns all-time leading
scorer and still the face of its basketball
program three decades after his career ended,
has agreed to coach the Red Storm, a person
with knowledge of the discussions told The
Associated Press on Monday.
The person spoke on condition of anonymity because there was no formal announcement.

Mullin, who led St.


Johns to the Final Four
in 1985, has never
coached at any level. He
replaces Steve Lavin
who agreed to leave last
week, after five seasons
during which the Red
Storm reached the NCAA
Chris Mullin Tournament twice.
Lavin had an 81-55
record at St. Johns and the Red Storm went
to the NCAA Tournament in his first and last

seasons. His teams compiled a 2-9 postseason record in the Big East Tournament,
NCAA and NIT. Lavin had one year left on
his original six-year contract.
Mullin, a New York native, was a fivetime All-Star with Golden State, a member
of the USAs gold-medal winning Dream
Team in 1992 and was inducted into the
Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of
Fame in 2011. He was presented for induction by his coach at St. Johns, Hall of
Famer Lou Carnesecca.
It was during Mullins years at St. Johns

that the program enjoyed its greatest days.


Mullin and Georgetowns Patrick Ewing
were the key parts of the early domination
of the Big East Conference. In 1985 the
Big East had three Final Four teams, St.
Johns, Georgetown and national champion Villanova. The Redmen and Hoyas were
both ranked No. 1 during the season.
Mullin and his sweet left-handed jumper
became part of the lore of New York City
basketball.
The agreement was first reported by CBS
Sports Network.

Ota erupts for 5-hit day divisionrace
By Terry Bernal

Athlete of the Week

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

In four years as a baseball player at Serra,


Scott Ota had never hit in the No. 3 spot for
the Padres.
Entering into the last week of West
Catholic Athletic League play prior to
spring break, Ota was Serras hottest hitter.
The left-handed swinging senior was batting
.516. So with the Padres scuffling to earn
their first WCAL win they were 0-3 in
league while totaling just three runs to that
point manager Craig Gianinno moved
Ota up from the No. 5 spot to the No. 3 spot
for last Tuesdays matchup with Riordan.
Ota responded big time, going 5 for 5 to
lead Serra to its biggest offensive output of
the season with a 12-3 win.
Hes been really good in the box,
Gianinno said. To debut for his first time
hitting third, a lot of guys emotionally get
outside themselves just because of the idea
of hitting in the third spot in the lineup. And
he really did a good job that day just being
himself and staying committed to his
approach on his terms.
The Padres went on to win two straight,
downing Sacred Heart Cathedral 10-0 Friday.
Ota went 2 for 4 in that game, closing out his
week with a 7-for-9 clip with three doubles, a
triple and five RBIs, earning him San Mateo
Daily Journal Athlete of the Week honors.
Otas five-hit game against Riordan was just
the fifth time in Serra history a batter has
reached the plateau. Jason Frisella was the first
to do so against Moreau Catholic in 1991. The
feat wasnt accomplished again until 2010
when P.J. Mallery did it against St. Ignatius.
On April 27, 2013, Michael Tinsley and
Sean Watkins had a historic day in which
they both reached the plateau. Watkins actually surpassed it to become the only player
in Serra history to total six hits in a game as
the Padres set the all-time program record for
runs scored in a single game in a 28-1 win.
Last Tuesday, Ota joined the prestigious
list. But he fell short of another one, falling
one leg short of hitting for the cycle. In his
first four at-bats, the senior tabbed a single,
two doubles and a triple. When he came to

TERRY BERNAL/DAILY JOURNAL

Scott Ota became just the fifth player in Serra history to have five hits in a single game. The
See AOTW, Page 12 senior was 7 for 9 on the week, including his historic 5-for-5 day against Riordan.

hile many schools are enjoying spring break this week,


there are still a couple crucial
baseball matchups slated for this week in
the Peninsula Athletic League Bay
Division.
Sacred Heart Prep, 5-1, and 3-1 Terra
Nova meet for a home-and-home series
beginning Tuesday in Atherton and concluding Thursday in Pacica.
The Gators, under rst-year coach
Anthony Granato, lost a couple close
games during non-league play, but their
bats have broken out the last couple
weeks as theyve
gone on a fourgame winning
streak. They outslugged MenloAtherton 16-14
March 18 and completed the season
sweep of the Bears
with a 6-3 victory
March 20. They
followed that with a
sweep of rival
Menlo School last
week, 10-1 and 4-3.
Terra Nova, with Joey Gentile running
the ship, are getting it done with its pitching. Seniors Ray Falk and Anthony Gordon
are as formidable 1-2 punch as there is in
the PAL. The two have a combined for 10
starts, a 4-2 record and an ERA of 1.17. The
Tigers have a 1.44 ERA as a team.
Jared Milch, who burst on the scene as
a sophomore last year lling in for an
injured Gordon, is 1-0 with a 0.88 ERA.
He allowed one hit in six innings in a 4-0
win over Woodside last week.
A sweep by either team would give it a
leg up in the race for the Bay Division
title. A split and the division remains up
for grabs.
Another key Bay Division matchup has
4-2 Carlmont hooking up with 1-3
Menlo-Atherton Wednesday in
Atherton and Friday in Belmont.

UConn women back in Final Four with defeat of Dayton


By Doug Feinberg
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALBANY, N.Y. Getting to the Final


Four never gets old for Geno Auriemma and
his UConn Huskies.
Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis scored 27
points to help UConn beat Dayton 91-70
on Monday night to advance to the national
semifinals for an eighth straight season.
I love going to the Final Four. I dont
care how many times it is, what the total
number is. I love it for the fact that some of
my players have never been there,
Auriemma said.

When you get a chance to go, you feel


like you did something pretty significant.
We did it over and over again. Some kids
dont get to go once.
Now the Huskies stand two wins away
from a third straight national championship. They accomplished that same feat
from 2002-04.
Unlike the first three games of the tournament when UConn won by an average of
nearly 48 points, the Huskies got all they
could handle from the seventh-seeded
Flyers, who werent intimidated by the top
seed for the games first 20 minutes.
When were challenged, sometimes

thats when were at our best, and thats


what we talked about in the locker room and
I couldnt be prouder of them and happier for
them ... especially tonight against a great,
great team, Auriemma said. Boy, Im glad
we dont have to play them again.
Trailing at the half for the first time in
two seasons, UConn scored the first nine
points of the second half during a 15-3 run
to take a 58-47 lead with 13:56 left.
A little more than a minute later,
Mosqueda-Lewis hit her fifth 3-pointer of
the game giving her 393 in her career to
break the NCAA record for 3s. That made it
62-49.

Dayton (28-7) couldnt get within seven


the rest of the way thanks in a big part to
Mosqueda-Lewis, who finished the game
with seven 3-pointers.
It eases my mind a lot, Mosqueda-Lewis
said of getting the record. Now I only have
one thing to worry about a national
championship.
Breanna Stewart added 23 points and 16
rebounds while Morgan Tuck had 23 points
for the Huskies (36-1). Stewart was selected
as the Most Outstanding Player of the region.

the plate for his final at-bat, the bases were loaded. But
instead of swinging for the fences, Ota said he was just trying to manufacture a run.
I was just trying to get a ball in the air to bring in a run,
Ota said.
Instead, he got a middle-away fastball and pulled a line
drive over the first basemans head. The short approach has
served Ota well all season though. And the adjustments he
made in moving up in the batting order were key to his
instant success.
Going from fifth to third, I knew I was going to get off-speed
pitches more, Ota said.
And after his third hit, Ota knew he was on the way to a
special day.
I was just feeling really calm and relaxed, Ota said. I
was confident at the plate. I changed my approach to just
hitting [the ball] the other way rather than trying to pull the
ball and hit it out.
Ota actually had one other five-hit performance in a Padres
uniform during the 2012 season with the freshman team. That
performance came against Riordan as well. His progression to
the varsity level two years later, however, was a rocky one.
As a junior last season, Ota started just two games. He hit

in the 100-meter hurdles with a time of 18


minutes, 12 seconds. She also owned the
300 hurdles with a 50.77.
Dav i d Badet, Hi l l s dal e bas ebal l .
The junior has hit safely in six straight
games, but last weeks performance was his
best stretch by far. Badet was 5 for 6 with
two doubles through Hillsdales sweep of
South City. He also stayed hot Monday with
a 2-for-3 day in the Knights 11-6 win over
Capuchino. Hillsdale is still unbeaten in
Peninsula Athletic League Ocean Division
play with a 6-0 record and is 13-1 overall.
Jes s i ca Do s s , Arag o n s o ftbal l . The
Dons bounced back from a tough loss to
Carlmont last Tuesday with a 6-5 victory over
Half Moon Bay. Not only did Doss go the distance in the circle to earn the win, the senior
was 2 for 3 with a home run at the dish as
Aragon scored two runs in the bottom of the
seventh to record a dramatic comeback win.
Jul i an Bi l l o t, Carl mo nt bas ebal l .
The senior outfielder was the catalyst in
Carlmonts sweep of rival Sequoia last
week. Billot led off the series for the Scots

.385 (5 for 13) in limited play, but logged just 15 plate


appearances on the year. Just as he was hitting his stride
though, injury struck. After going 4 for 7 through what
would be his final two games of the year in the Serra lineup,
he endured a freak injury at practice while in the on-deck circle and was struck by a helicoptering bat.
Instead of sidestepping the bat that slipped out of the
hands of Patrick ORegan, he attempted to block it. The
next day, Ota was diagnosed with a fractured right wrist.
Last year he went through some adversity around injury
and playing time, Gianinno said. It had not been an easy
road for him as a junior. But I also believe that the benefit to
the struggle and the benefit to the adversity is the experience
he received through a different lens. And hes certainly
done an unbelievable job this year.
Ota returned for the final two weeks of the season, but
appeared in just two games, both as a pinch runner. During
the summer though, he made up for lost time as one of three
Padres along with James Outman and Chris Papapietro
to play for the California Club Baseball team. Ota was ultimately named MVP of the team.
Despite his MVP performance, Ota was one of the only
players on the team to not land a college commitment.
Papapietro had already committed to play Division-I ball at
University of the Pacific. And after the CCB season,
Outman committed to Sacramento State.
Despite being a good student, Ota who is currently
leading the WCAL in hitting with a .575 batting average
has yet to receive a college offer.

Cubs Bryant sent to minors;


union threatening litigation
By Jason P. Skoda
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MESA, Ariz. Third baseman Kris


Bryant was reassigned by the Chicago
Cubs to their minor league camp on
Monday despite an outstanding spring
training at the plate, triggering a
threat of litigation from the players
association.
Bryant hit .425 in the exhibition
season with nine homers and 15 RBIs
in 40 at-bats. If the 23-year-old spends
12 or more days in the minor leagues,
Chicago would delay him from becoming eligible for free agency by one
year, until after the 2021 season,
according to baseballs collective bargaining agreement.
Today is a bad day for baseball, the
Major League Baseball Players
Association said in a statement. I
think we all know that even if Kris
Bryant were a combination of the

greatest players to
play our game, and
perhaps he will be
before its all said
and done, the Cubs
still would have
made the decision
they made today.
This decision, and
other similar deciKris Bryant
sions made by clubs
will be addressed in litigation, bargaining or both.
Major League Baseball defended the
Cubs decision.
In accordance with long established
practice under the Basic Agreement, a
club has an unfettered right to determine which players are part of its
opening-day roster, MLB said in a
statement. This issue was discussed
extensively in bargaining in 2011, and

Panik goes deep,


Hudson goes four,
Giants down Cubs
By Jason P. Skoda
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MESA, Ariz. Joe Panik homered and Daniel


Carbonell had a bases-loaded, two-run double as the
Giants topped the Cubs Monday 8-5.
Giants starter Tim Hudson gave up
10 hits and four runs in 4 2/3 innings.
They hit a couple of good pitches,
Hudson said. It was a work day for
sure. I got in some jams, but limited
the damage.
Hudson was far from concerned
about his first bad outing of the
spring coming so close to the start of
the season.
Joe Panik
I didnt make great pitches throughout the day, he said. Its one of those things where there
wasnt a game plan and obviously I was throwing a lot of
pitches while not really understanding what some of these
younger guys (in the Cubs lineup) strengths and weaknesses are yet.
Cubs starter Kyle Hendricks gave up his first runs
against big league batter this spring after extending his
scoreless streak to 12 innings
Hendricks, who went 7-2 with a 2.46 ERA as a rookie,
didnt allow a run in his first two exhibition outings. He
threw five shutout innings against the Giants before they
scored five times in the sixth.
Hendricks went 5 1/3 innings, allowing seven hits
with a walk and striking out five.
In addition to his three starts in the Cactus League,
Hendricks had allowed three runs in 10 innings in two B
games.

Trainers room
Travis Ishikawa, who was pulled from Sundays game
because of back tightness, has a sore back and is considered day-to-day. An MRI on Monday came back good
according to manager Bruce Bochy, who said Ishikawa

Gonzagas great season ends in Elite 8 but more ahead


By Nicholas K. Geranios

SPOKANE, Wash. The question all season was whether this was the greatest team
in the history of Gonzaga basketball.
The answer after the Bulldogs finally
broke through to the Elite Eight again but
fell short of the Final Four again has to
remain: Maybe.

games than any team in school history and
finally broke the streak of five straight

nine rebounds and topseeded Maryland advanced
to its second straight

Brown hit three 3-pointers in the second

knock out Tennessee from the NCAAs for the
second straight year.
Its the fifth Final Four appearance for the
Terrapins and third under coach Brenda Frese.
Shatori Walker-Kimbrough added 12
points for the Terrapins, who held Tennessee
to one field goal over the final 5 minutes.
Maryland has won 28 straight games.

Auriemma was concerned before the game
about Daytons wide-open style which features
multiple players on the court who can hit 3s.
The Flyers went shot for shot with the
Huskies for the first 20 minutes with neither
team able to get more than a five-point lead.
Dayton made its first four 3-pointers and
hit seven of the first 10 shots from behind
the arc to put the pressure on the Huskies.
UConn got a little breathing room going up

Center Przemek Karnowski and freshman
forward Domantas Sabonis are also eligible
to return.
But the Zags will lose guards Kevin Pangos
and Bell, who posted a 122-20 record during
their four years as the starting back court.
The Zags were dominant for much of the
year. They lost in December at Arizona then
ripped off a school-record 22-game winning
final six points before break to go into the
locker room up 44-43. That brought the
strong contingent of Dayton fans to their
feet as they serenaded their team with a loud
ovation as they ran into the locker room.
Really proud of our guys, we competed,
werent intimidated, Dayton coach Jim
Jabir said. They are the best team in the
country, bar none. ... For a long time we
hung around and hung around. I couldnt be
more proud, this was a great day.
This was the first time since the Big East
final in 2013 that the Huskies trailed at the
half. They werent rattled.
The loss ended the seventh-seeded Flyers
improbable run. They reached the regional
final for the first time in school history
after beating Kentucky in the second round
and Louisville in the Sweet 16.
Ally Malott scored 14 points, all in the
first half, to lead Dayton.
Aragon and El Camino have been just as
impressive defensively. The Dons have
allowed just 12 runs in league play. The
Colts? Six.

their 5-0 start, the Vikings have outscored
their opponents 68-11.
The Lake Division is shaping up to be a

streak before suffering a rare home loss late

They figure to be good next year, especially if Wiltjer, Karnowski and Sabonis return.
Veteran guard Kyle Dranginis is back.
Freshmen guards Josh Perkins and Silas
Melson showed flashes of brilliance in limited play this season.Theres no reason
why we cant get to this point and beyond as
a program, Pangos said. Unfortunately, we
couldnt make it to the Final Four, but I want
them to in the near future.

Tip-ins
Day to n: Coach Jim Jabir fell to 0-10 in
his career against the Huskies. He was winless in eight games while coaching at
Providence from 1996-2002. The Friars lost
by an average of 43 points, including a 78point defeat in 1998. He also lost as coach
of the Flyers four years ago. ... Dayton was
the fourth No. 7 seed to advance to the
regional finals since the NCAA Tournament
expanded to 64 teams in 1994. Only
Minnesota in 2004 made it to the Final Four.
UCo nn: Mosqueda-Lewis broke the 3point mark held by Laurie Koehn of Kansas
State and Heather Butler of UT-Martin. They
both hit 392. ... The 44 points at the break
were the most a UConn opponent had scored
against them in the first half since DePaul
had 47 in 2008.
quick just how real Woodside is.
The Wildcats are the feel-good story
early in league play. After a 7-7 mark in
their inaugural journey through the Bay
Division last season, the Wildcats are off
to a 3-1 start this year and look poised to
break up the Carmon-Hillsdale-Half Moon
Bay-Capuchino logjam that has been atop
the Bay Division standings more often
than not the last several years.
But Woodside is coming into the meat of
its schedule. The Wildcats were dusted 12-2
by Burlingame last Thursday. This week,
they have Carlmont (in Belmont Tuesday)
and Hillsdale (in San Mateo Thursday).
The Wildcats dont necessarily have to
win to prove they belong in the talk for a
postseason berth. If they can keep those
games competitive, the Wildcats may just
have something to say about who wins the
Bay Division championship.

Connecticut governor Free agent LB Briggs visiting with 49ers


demands relocating
16 Final Four unless
Indianas law changes
By Janie McCauley

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

By Pat Eaton-Robb
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALBANY, N.Y. Connecticuts governor


and UConns athletic director called on the
NCAA on Monday to consider moving next
years Womens Final Four out of
Indianapolis unless changes are made to
Indianas new religious-objections law.
Gov. Dannel P. Malloy and other critics
contend the law would allow businesses to
deny service to gays and lesbians based on
religious beliefs. The governor on Monday
signed an executive order banning state
spending on travel to Indiana and says the
NCAA would be wise to move the tournament.
We have gay men and women who play
NCAA sports and to hold a tournament in a
state that has passed, and really quite frankly
has flaunted laws that would lead to discrimination against those athletes, is not a wise
place to have a tournament, Malloy said.
Warde Manuel, UConns athletic director,
told The Associated Press he finds the law
unacceptable. He said he hopes the state of
Indiana rectifies the situation before UConn
or any other institution considers a boycott
of the 2016 Final Four.
If it doesnt change than I would encourage the NCAA to look to move the venue so
that we wouldnt get into a situation where
any institution would have to consider that
kind of choice, he said.
The Huskies have won the past two NCAA
Tournaments and were playing Monday
night for a berth in the programs eighth
consecutive Final Four.
Republican legislative leaders in Indiana
said they are working on adding language to
the religious-objections law to make it clear
that the measure does not allow discrimination against gays and lesbians.

SAN FRANCISCO The San Francisco


49ers were hosting free agent linebacker
Lance Briggs at team headquarters Monday.
Briggs agent, Drew Rosenhaus, confirmed the visit. The Niners are in need of
linebackers following the surprising retirements this offseason of five-time All-Pro
Patrick Willis and then Chris Borland following his standout rookie season.
The 34-year-old Briggs went on the
reserve/injured list in late November with a
groin injury, and played in only eight
games last season for Chicago.
A seven-time Pro Bowler, he had 34 tackles, a forced fumble and an interception in
his 12th NFL season all with the Bears.
He played in only nine games during the
2013 season.

StubHub files lawsuit against Ticketmaster

Thomas may skip Broncos workouts

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. Demaryius


Thomas says hell skip the Denver Broncos
offseason workouts until the sides agree on a
long-term contract.
The star receiver also said hell bypass
Peyton Mannings annual passing camp next
week at Duke, where the five-time MVP QB
works on his timing with his wide receivers.
Thomas said if a long-term deal isnt
reached, hed sign the Broncos $12.823 million franchise tender by the July 15 deadline.

NEW YORK StubHub is suing


Ticketmaster and the Golden State Warriors,
alleging it unfairly required fans looking to
resell tickets to use Ticketmasters resale
exchange.
The online ticket marketplace and division of San Jose, California-based eBay
Inc. alleges in the lawsuit filed Sunday
night that the organizations prevent fans
from deciding how they want to resell tickets and artificially drive up ticket prices.
Specifically, StubHub said Ticketmaster
and the Warriors cancelled fans regular-season and playoff-game tickets when those
fans used StubHub and other exchanges to
resell tickets. In other cases, the complaint
says, Ticketmaster and the Warriors front
office broke the law by threatening fans
with cancellation to force them to use

Raiders re-sign DL C.J. Wilson


ALAMEDA The Raiders have re-signed
free agent defensive lineman C.J. Wilson.
The team announced the deal Monday.
Wilson joined Oakland last offseason and
became a part of the teams line rotation.
He started seven games and recorded 22 solo
tackles, two sacks and one forced fumble.
Wilson spent his first four seasons in
Green Bay.

10. No, I am leaving this with closure.


Less than a week later, the 24-year-old
Borland announced that he is leaving football. He told ESPNs Outside the Lines he
wants to avoid head trauma that could alter
his long-term well-being and was making a
decision based on whats best for my
health.
Borland had a team-leading 108 tackles as
a rookie, emerging as a punishing defender.
He also had a sack and two interceptions.
From what Ive researched and what Ive
experienced, I dont think its worth the
risk, Borland said in the ESPN interview. I
feel largely the same, as sharp as Ive ever
been. For me, its wanting to be proactive.
Im concerned that if you wait till you have
symptoms, its too late.
Also expected to meet with the team
Monday is wide receiver Hakeem Nicks.

Ticketmasters resale exchange.


While we do not comment specifically
on pending legal matters, we wanted to provide our fans some of the important reasons
for our policies, the Warriors said in a
statement.
The Warriors are committed to providing
fans with the opportunity to see our games
in person through a safe and secure ticket
buying experience. Dozens of fans are
denied entry to Oracle Arena each game
because they purchased counterfeit tickets.
Warriors.com and NBATickets.com are the
only sites where tickets are guaranteed to be
authentic. Although some third party sites
may offer a money-back guarantee, none
of them can verify ticket authenticity that
would guarantee entry to our games.
The Warriors added that more than 10,500
fans are waiting for the opportunity to purchase season tickets.

CUBS
Continued from page 13
the principle was not changed. We
do not believe that it is appropriate for the players association to
make the determination that Kris
Bryant should be on the Cubs 25man roster while another player,
who, unlike Bryant, is a member
of its bargaining unit, should be
cut or sent to the minor leagues.
Bryant, who is not on the 40man roster, was slowed defensively in the middle of camp by right
shoulder soreness.
Its always difficult to send
young players down because it is
news they dont want to hear,
Cubs President of Baseball
Operations Theo Epstein said. We
entered camp with the presumptive
move of sending him to Triple-A,
and it is always the presumptive
move for us with young players
who havent played in the big
leagues yet. You see how camp

develops and how the roster


shapes up to see if there is grounds
for an exception to the rule.
Bryant was not available to
discuss the move. His agent,
Scott Boras, called it Ersatz
Baseball.
MLB is not the MLB without
the best players, Boras said in a
text message to The Associated
Press. Kris excelled at every
level and earned the right of
entry. The CBA is at the apogee of
wrongs incentivizing clubs to
create a product less than best.
Bryants situation is the badge for
change to the CBA player service
structure.
The demotion of Bryant was
expected.
In this case it was the right
thing to do, Epstein said. His
performance really mattered, and
he made a great first impression on
Joe. It demonstrated clearly to
everybody that he is really close
to not just being in the big leagues
but an important role on the
team.
Chicago is seeking its first
World Series title since 1908.

Exercising critically ill patients may help recovery


By Lauran Neergaard
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The intensive care unit


is a last frontier for physical therapy: Its
hard to exercise patients hooked to ventilators.
Some hospitals do manage to help critically ill patients stand or walk even if
theyre tethered to life support. Now
research that put sick mice on tiny treadmills shows why even a little activity may
help speed recovery.
I think we can do a better job of implementing early mobility therapies, said Dr.
D. Clark Files of Wake Forest Baptist

Carolina, who led the research and whose

patients who had gotten a little exercise
harbored less of that protein.
The new research adds to the biologic
rationale, but theres already enough evidence supporting early mobility that families should ask whether their loved one is a
candidate, said ICU specialist Dr. Catherine
Hough of the University of Washington,
who wasnt involved with Files study.
Shes surveying a sample of U.S. hospitals and finding variability in how often

whether the patient can tolerate movement.
But so is whether hospitals keep ventilated

Back at Wake Forest Baptist, Terry Culler
began the exercises when he was medically

given that critical illness changes frequently. On Monday, the patient might have a

THE DAILY JOURNAL

advancements to treat memory loss diseases.


I was pretty ignorant until fairly recently. I had no idea that two out of every three
persons diagnosed with Alzheimers are
women. I also didnt know that 60 percent
of the caregivers or more are women. I also
didnt know that a woman age 60 is more
likely to be diagnosed with Alzheimers
than breast cancer, Speier said. Theres no
cure for Alzheimers right now. Its the fifth
leading cause of death in California, the
sixth leading cause of death in the U.S. It
takes a tremendous toll on families, on
friends, a financial toll on families, and it
takes a tremendous cost to the Medicare system in this country.
Speier and Guzman were joined on the
panel by Dr. Michael Greicius, medical
director of Stanford Universitys Center for
Memory
Disorders;
Dr.
Elizabeth
Landsverk, medical director of ElderConsult
Geriatric Medicine; and Ruth Gray, director
of public policy and advocacy for
Alzheimers
Association,
Northern
California and Northern Nevada Chapter.
Gray said this year advocates are pushing
Congress to pass the Health Outcomes,
Planning and Education (HOPE) for
Alzheimers Act, a bipartisan proposal that
among various treatment efforts, requests
$300 million toward research.

We know that at the rate we are spending


for Alzheimers disease today, for every
$26,000 we spend for caring for those with
Alzheimers, only $100 is spent on
research, Gray said. [We] cannot afford
this equation. We know that today we need a
game changer. We know that we need people
to step forward and speak out on this disease
like Cynthia [Guzman] has.
Gray classified Alzheimers disease as one
of the most feared and yet silent diseases of
modern times.
Since 2000, the number of deaths from
other conditions such as cancer, stroke, HIV
and cardiovascular disease have decreased;
yet in the case of Alzheimers disease, the
number has increased, Speier said.
The disproportionate rates of research
funding is of concern as nearly $5.5 billion
is spent toward cancer, $3.1 billion is allocated toward HIV, about $2 billion goes
toward cardiovascular diseases and only
$638 million is spent studying Alzheimers
disease, Speier said.
In progressing a cure, Gray added science
isnt limited by ideas, its limited by a lack
of resources.

Both Greicius and Landsverk advocated
for early testing and the benefit of creating
a comprehensive support network for those
with Alzheimers disease or other dementia
disorders.
Getting an early diagnosis can help prevent elder abuse and allow the patient to
have more input in their care before they
cognitively decline, Landsverk said.
Greicius said while theres no brain scan
that positively diagnosis Alzheimers disease, scans rule out other possibilities,
theres compelling research underway that
could help establish biomarkers earlier on
or even before someone begins to show
symptoms.
As the panelists agreed more must be done
to find a cure for Alzheimers disease and
other forms of dementia, Guzman said for as
long as she can, she will continue to serve
as the voice for others who pass away too
soon.
Guzman said shes grateful for the support
of her family and although its been tough,
shes accepted her diagnosis.

She said she appreciates the freedom that
the city has granted her to carve out her own

Ever since I stepped into this great city,
and the people have been really supportive,
she said.
One of the initiatives Michael said she
would like to see expanded is the Property

which offers financing incentives to homeowners hoping to install sustainable
improvements such as water conservation or

renewable energy systems.


I think there is a lot of potential in the

Im targeting my research right now, she
said.
She said Berkeley, San Francisco and San
Mateo County have taken the lead locally on
sustainability initiatives, and she hopes to
guide Burlingame in a similar direction.
As the economy rebounds, and more people are going to work in Burlingame,
Michael said she also wants to work with the

of car pool programs that would cut down on

Theres a lot of opportunities to push the

In the few months shes been working for

local business community through meeting
with the Chamber of Commerce, and found

Study: An apple a day may not keep the doctor away


are healthier or unhealthier than
those who dont. The reason for
the reported doctor visits also
isnt included in the study.
Lead author Matthew Davis, a
health services researcher at the
University of Michigan, said
while the study questions the
proverb, to really disprove it,
you would need a different study
design.

By Lindsey Tanner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO An apple a day


doesnt necessarily keep the doctor away. Thats according to
proverb-busting research that
found daily apple eaters had just
as many doctor visits as those
who ate fewer or no apples.
The findings dont mean apples
arent good for you but they do
underscore that it takes more than
just one kind of food to make a
healthy diet and avoid illness.
About one-third of the adults
studied said they had no more
than one doctor visit in the previous year; the remainder reported at least two visits. A preliminary analysis found apple eaters
had slightly fewer visits than
apple avoiders those who ate
less than one daily or no apples.
But that difference disappeared
when the researchers considered
weight, race, education, health
insurance and other factors that
can influence frequency of medical visits.
More about the study, published Monday in JAMA Internal
Medicine:

STUDY DETAILS
The researchers looked at data
on about 8,400 U.S. adults who
took part in government health
surveys in 2007-08 and 2009-

HOW `BOUT THEM APPLES?

Apple eaters had more education and were less likely to smoke than apple shunner.
10. The adults answered questionnaires that included queries about
foods theyd eaten in the previous 24 hours and medical care in
the past year. About 9 percent of
adults studied ate the equivalent
of at least one small apple daily.
Those who ate less than that were
considered apple shunners.

Apple eaters had more education and were less likely to


smoke than apple shunners, and
fewer of them were white. Apple
eaters were slightly less likely to
use prescription drugs, but the
study lacks information on use of
over-the-counter medication and
alternative medicine.

STUDY LIMITATIONS

reflect usual eating habits. The
study lacks information on other
foods people ate and it isnt rigorous enough to determine whether

Apples are a good source of vitamin C; one medium apple has


about 100 calories and provides
nearly 20 percent of the daily recommended amount of fiber.
Apples also contain small
amounts of vitamin A, calcium and
iron.
The proverb is thought to have
originated in Wales in the 1800s.
Apples, which have a long shelf
life, were likely one of the few
fruits that were available throughout the year, said Alice
Lichtenstein, a Tufts University
professor of nutrition science and
policy. She wasnt involved in the
study.
Nutritionists generally agree
that apples can be a good food
choice. But, said Dr. Steven
Zeisel, director of the University
of North Carolinas Nutrition
Research Institute, One apple
isnt going to be enough to make
a difference unless its part of a

and its something Im really committed to. Its community-based economic development and small business
representation in thriving downtown.
A New Jersey native, Fienman said

she met her husband before the couple
decided to move to California.
Fienman said she and her husband,

The DSMA lost its former executive

Street making it a dangerous place for
children.
Martinez hopes to maintain a dialogue with the city to address safety
issues despite the lawsuit being filed
and dismissed.
More big trucks and buses are using
Holly now which can be unsafe considering how narrow the lanes are, he
said.
He sees motorists drag-racing on
some nights and said police enforcement has been minimal. Motorists
routinely drive 50 mph on Holly, he
said.
Its just a matter of time before
there is a serious traffic accident,
Martinez said.
Residents of Holly Street and the
Greater East San Carlos neighborhood
were outraged about the loss of their
parking for most of the day and some
argued the changes are unnecessary.
Rubens argued that an environmental report was unnecessary because the
California Environmental Quality Act

that sort of closes that chapter. We didnt want to jump on hiring somebody
because we wanted to make sure we
found the right person. We took a long
time to identify the right person for
the job and we are thrilled that Ann is
the perfect person for the job, Bush
said.
Fienman is the DSMAs only fulltime employee and will work alongside part-time Office Manager
Kathleen Bednarik in overseeing the
organizations activities with a nearly
$220,000 budget, Bush said.
Despite not having an executive
director, positive changes have been
in the works as the DSMA is rebranding and plans to move to a new office
at the Mills Square Office Tower on
South Ellsworth Avenue, Bush said.
The organization has also proceeded
with its annual events such as the
downtown Wine Walk, Christmas on B
Street, the upcoming San Mateo Street
Festival and other community-serving
events, Bush said.
The street festival, formerly known
as SummerFest, will kick off June 2021 with food, vendors, art and, for the
first time, a small car show on B
Street, Bush said.
The annual Downtown Spring
CleanUp will be Fienmans first event
and is anticipated to draw hundreds of
volunteers to assist the DSMA in revitalizing the streets on April 18, Bush
said.
Fienman will also be charged with
helping to boost the DSMAs budget
by securing more sponsorships for
events and collaborating with busi-

ness and property owners.


I definitely think theres growth
opportunities on the sponsorship side
and event side and potential grants,
particularly supporting the Downtown
Art Project (a nonprofit formed to promote the arts.) So enhancing the budget, obviously enhances the organizations ability to provide programs and
services in the downtown, Fienman
said.
Fienman said shes looking forward
to getting involved in the citys
Downtown Engagement Process,
which includes community outreach
while updating the citys Downtown
Area Plan a comprehensive planning document addressing a variety of
components such as zoning and land
use polices.
As shopping trends have changed
alongside advancements in technology, Fienman said promoting a sense of
discovery for those walking through
downtown is key to enticing consumers. Fienman said shes excited to
work with the DSMA board and city
officials to help build upon the success
of downtown San Mateo.
Downtown gives you a little bit of
that exploration opportunity and it
does seem that theres a growing
attraction for that, Fienman said.
Maybe perhaps because were spending so much more of our time online in
virtual interactions, [it] makes people
still crave the real world interaction.

makes exemptions for some city


actions like restriping of streets which
it leaves to the authority of the public
works director. Otherwise, cities would
spend extra time and money on environmental reviews every time a curb
needed red paint.
The planned parking changes were
the only aspect that required council
approval, Rubens said.
The lawsuit also challenged the
citys timeline of approval, claiming
the 4x7 postcard notice mailed to residents was inadequate because it failed
to specify that the proposed parking
ordinance included the bigger project.
Therefore, the public couldnt decide
whether to attend the July 14 public
meeting and speak up, Martinez said
previously.
Rebens, however, said that virtually
the entire neighborhood showed up to
the meeting and that nobody was confused by this alleged notice.
Prior to the lawsuits filing, the
Greater East San Carlos neighborhood
group ramped up opposition efforts by
posting about 100 signs claiming the
changes of the street into the Holly
Highway are a threat to childrens
safety.

But Councilman Mark Olbert said


that there has not been a significant
change in accident patterns since
Holly has been restriped.
Banning big trucks and buses on
Holly could be an item the council
explores to make the corridor safer,
Olbert said.
Im glad the lawsuit is settled and
now we can consider some of the suggestions to ease residents concerns,
Olbert said.
Some suggestions include reducing
the speed on Holly from 30 mph to 25
mph; subsidizing backyard garbage
service so residents dont have to put
their trash bins on the sidewalk; and
creating resident-only parking lots on
the corridor.
Now the council can resume discussions related to the corridor which
were suspended by the lawsuit, Olbert
said.
While changing the no parking
rules in the corridor benefited the community as a whole, it also adversely
impacted the lives of corridor residents. Olbert wrote on his blog.
He is hoping the discussions will be
back on an upcoming agenda for the
council to consider.
