CLINTON:ROMNEY WOULD BE CALAMITOUS

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Now that county ofcials have
decided they want a new jail and
chose a preferred 576-bed size, they
will knuckle down this afternoon to
discuss priorities in design and con-
struction.
Where exactly the womens jail

facility is of par-
ticular interest
as is the future
plan for the
warm shell, a

which could be
used to expand

to address if the

housed in a sep-
arate unit either
outside or with-

for a new jail during his tenure, is

Police: Bank robber
had to be cut from air duct
OAK LAWN, Ill. A wig-wearing
man broke into a suburban Chicago
bank vault and nearly made off with
$100,000 but got stuck in an air duct and
had to be cut out hours later, authorities
said Sunday.
Charles Estell, 38, was found early
Sunday hiding in an air duct in an ofce
next to the bank, according to Oak Lawn
police spokesman Michael Kaufmann.
The Chicago man had allegedly
robbed the suburban bank Saturday
afternoon, and pointed a gun at bank
employees who confronted him in the
vault, according to the FBI.
I dont want to kill or hurt you,
Estell said, according to the criminal
complaint. I just want the money.
He allegedly stuffed $100,000 in a
backpack and fled. Employees told
authorities it appeared he escaped
through the ceiling.
Authorities spent hours searching for
him and located him around 1 a.m.
Sunday. But before they could cut him
loose from the air duct, they had to
remove a wig of long, beaded dread-
locks he was wearing.
According to the criminal complaint,
Estell told investigators that he got into
the vault through the ceiling.
Estell was charged Sunday with one
felony count of bank robbery and could
face up to 20 years in prison. He has not
entered a plea, and is due back in court
Tuesday. It wasnt immediately clear if
he had a lawyer. A phone message left
Sunday at a number listed as his wasnt
immediately returned.
LAX agents seize live bird
hopping around in plane
LOS ANGELES Passengers on a

discovered a surprising stowaway when
a songbird hopped down their planes
aisle in what ofcials suspect is a failed
animal smuggling attempt.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection
specialists said in a statement Friday that
they seized the bird upon the ights
arrival at Los Angeles International
Airport on May 27.
A ight attendant had captured the
bird and handed it over to customs
agents who put the bird in a cage and
gave it seeds and water.
After screening and X-raying all pas-
sengers, crew and carry-on bags, no
other birds, droppings or feathers were
found.
Customs ofcials say smuggled ani-
mals can carry diseases, such as avian
u, which is potentially fatal.
Prince Philip in hospital,
misses jubilee concert
LONDON Elton John sang Im
Still Standing, Stevie Wonder crooned
Isnt She Lovely, and Paul McCartney
sent All My Loving as musical royalty
celebrated Queen Elizabeth IIs 60-year
reign with a concert outside
Buckingham Palace on Monday. But the
joy was tempered by news that the
queens husband, Prince Philip, had
been hospitalized with a bladder infec-
tion.
Palace ofcials said the prince, who
will turn 91 on Saturday, was taken to
the King Edward VII Hospital in
London from Windsor Castle on
Monday as a precaution and will remain
under observation for a few days.
As the Diamond Jubilee show ended,
Prince Charles took the stage and
encouraged concertgoers to make some
noise for his father. The crowd respond-
ed with a roar and chants of Philip.
The heir to the throne paid tribute to
his mother, addressing her as Your
Majesty Mummy and leading the
crowd in three cheers for the monarch.
Despite Philips illness, many mem-
bers of the royal family, including
Charles, his wife Camilla, Duchess of
Cornwall, and Princes William and
Harry sat in a royal box to watch the
show, performed on a specially erected
stage outside the palace.
The queen was cheered as she arrived
partway through the show, wearing a
gold lame cocktail dress under a dark
cape. It was decided before Philips ill-
ness that she would watch only part of
the concert.

Ryan Niranjan is the kind of teen who
knows what works for him.
In terms of his education, Niranjan excels in
smaller settings versus large schools. It was
that realization coupled with a need to make
up credits that inspired 18-year-old Niranjan
to transfer his junior year from Carlmont High
School to Redwood High. Although his par-
ents questioned the decision at the time,
Niranjan was able to make up his classes,
raise his grades and graduate early. The time
has allowed him to already start taking class-
es at Caada College before starting at Menlo
College in the fall.
Ryan is a very kind, bright and humble
young man. He is always a pleasure to work
with and I wish him the best, said teacher and
counselor Dodi McDonald.
Niranjan grew up in East Palo Alto with one
younger brother and parents who worked
hard. A curious kid who would sometimes get
in trouble, Niranjan also showed an interest in
computers quite early. While at Brentwood
Academy, Niranjan would work alongside a
teacher taking apart computers and building
them from scratch.
Ive always been good with them, he said
of working with computers. My family
always comes to me. I dont know what the
problem is, but I nd a way to x it.
Throughout his time in elementary and
McNair Intermediate, Niranjan also took part
in playing football whenever he could. He
continued to play at Carlmont High School
during his freshman year. The commute by
bus to Belmont was difcult for the young stu-
dent who would attend the College Track pro-
gram after school. As a result, his day would
often begin at 5:30 a.m. and end close to 8
p.m.
The long days were wearing him down and
came just after Niranjans grandmother passed
away. He previously spent his time after
school with her. She provided inspiration for
Niranjan who said she never judged him.
She was basically my world, he said.
After she died, he began giving up. Grades
slipped. He couldnt go out for football soph-
omore year since he no longer had the grades.
Niranjan realized his situation wasnt one that
would make his grandmother proud. So he
opted to make a change to Redwood High.
At Redwood, Niranjan was able to turn
around his academic career. This year, he got
a car which made the commute easier. Then
he graduated late last year giving Niranjan the
opportunity to get a job and start taking col-
lege courses.
Seeing his own success in a small school,
Niranjan opted to attend Menlo College in the
fall. Hes planning to play football and
explore his continued interest in computer
engineering.
Staying local will mean Niranjan can give a
ride to his younger brother Shane, who will be
attending Menlo-Atherton High in the fall.
The Redwood High School graduation is 10
a.m. Thursday, June 7 at Redwood High
School, 1968 Old County Road, Redwood
City.
Great Grads is in its seventh year proling one
graduating senior from each of our local
schools. Schools have the option to partici-
pate. Those that choose to participate are
asked to nominate one student who deserves
recognition.

College district refinanced
voter-approved bonds
The San Mateo County
Community College District recent-
ly completed refinancing $113.2
million in general obligation bonds,
saving local taxpayers more than
$16.4 million in long-term debt
costs over the next 15 years, accord-
ing to a district press release.
As part of this renancing, the
district received an upgrade in its
credit rating from Standard and
Poors and the highest rating possi-
ble from Moodys Investors Ratings
Service. With ratings of AA+ from
S&P and Aaa from Moodys, the
district is now the highest-rated
community college district in the
state of California.
In assigning the rating, Moodys
cited the districts healthy and sta-
ble nances during a time of rev-
enue challenges from state funding
and its low debt burden of 2.2 per-
cent as factors leading to the
enhanced rating. Standard and
Poors pointed to the districts
good nancial policies and prac-
tices and strong reserve levels in
making their recommendation.
These ratings contributed to the dis-
trict being able to reduce the aver-
age interest cost on the general obli-
gation bonds that were renanced
from 5.03 percent to 2.10 percent,
which produced the signicant sav-
ings for taxpayers.
Employee injured in gas
station robbery Sunday
An employee at a Belmont gas
station was injured in an armed rob-
bery early Sunday morning, police
said.
Ofcers responded to a report of a
robbery at a 76 gas station at 699
Ralston Ave. at about 2:10 a.m.,
according to the Belmont Police
Department.
A night attendant who had been
outside doing some maintenance
was walking back into the business
when he was hit from behind and
knocked to the ground, police said.
The victim told police that two
suspects had ordered him to open
the cash register. One was carrying
a handgun, police said.
The men then stole cash and ed
on foot, according to police.
The victims injuries were not
considered life-threatening.
The armed suspect was described
as a man in his 20s with a muscular
build, about 6 feet tall and weighing
around 200 pounds. He was wear-
ing a black hoodie and a ski mask.
The second suspect was described
as a man in his 20s with a medium
build, weighing about 170 pounds.
He was wearing a sweatshirt with
gray sweatpants and a ski mask.
Anyone with information about
the robbery is asked to contact the

Redwood City: Woman
to open lice removal salon
Many people have a passion in
their lives but few are able to turn
that passion into a career even
fewer have a passion for lice
removal.
This is where Ivette Munoz ts in.
Munoz, 31, from Redwood City,
who has been a cosmetologist since
2007, was plagued with lice on a
number of occasions while she was
a child and is now championing a
way for children to get rid of their
lice is a hasty fashion.
Munoz said her mother told her,
If there is something that you can
nd to help them, do it.
I was very passionate about
that, Munoz said.
Munoz is set to open Nixties
Head Lice Treatment Salon on
Wednesday at 650 El Camino Real
in Redwood City.
The treatment she uses, devel-
oped by Dr. Dale Clayton at the
University of Utah, is chemical free
and dehydrates the lice and nits,
killing the bugs, Munoz said.
It is a one-time, 30-minute proce-
dure that has been cleared by the
Food and Drug Administration for
nearly three years, according to
Munoz.
Its safe, Munoz said. Its fast
so it saves people time.
Munoz has been making house
calls for lice removal for over a year
and said it started slow but picked
up, mainly through word of mouth
from her customers.
It started kind of slow but now
its almost every day I get a call,
Munoz said.
When Munoz had the idea for the
salon and told customers, it was met
with some trepidation but as time
wore on it gained steam over the
house calls.
Most people said (they pre-
ferred) the salon just because it was
convenient, she said.
Munoz, who is the salons only
employee, will be offering free lice
checks by appointment only
throughout the month of June.
Four arrested in string
of vehicle burglaries
An investigation into a string of
nearly 50 auto burglaries at South
San Francisco hotels and restaurants
has resulted in the arrest of three
men and a juvenile, police said
Sunday.
The burglaries, which have
occurred over the past several
months, generally involved the sus-
pects smashing a vehicle window
and grabbing property that was left
unsecured and in plain view by the
owners, police said. It was believed
that the same group of suspects was
committing the burglaries, but no
suspects had been identied.
South San Francisco investigators
staking out a business at 10 Airport
Blvd. on Friday spotted a suspicious
vehicle enter the parking lot. One
person stepped out of the vehicle
and began peering into car win-
dows.
Police converged on the scene,
and the suspects fled at a high
speeds, but were stopped several
blocks away. Burglary tools and
other evidence were located in the
vehicle, police said.
Police arrested one male juvenile
and three adult males, including
Antioch resident Donte Primus, 23,
and San Francisco residents Ebony
Manuels, 35, and Jabar Mabrey, 26.
All four were arrested on suspi-
cion of possession of stolen proper-
ty, possession of burglary tools,
attempted burglary and conspiracy
to commit burglary. Primus was
also found to be on parole.

A woman accused of stealing $1,700 worth
of Dr. Scholls shoe insoles from a Redwood
City drug store by switching the price tags and
paying an unsuspecting cashier $50 for them
was sentenced to a year in jail and ordered to
pay restitution.
Silvia Dinnette Johnson, 43, of East Palo
Alto, previously pleaded not guilty and
declined to take plea deal offers. Yesterday,
however, just before the case was to be
assigned for trial, Johnson pleaded no contest
to two counts of grand theft and one count of
commercial burglary.
Judge John Grandsaert imposed a three-year
sentence but under state realignment that is bro-
ken into a year in county jail followed by two
years supervised probation.
The Aug. 16 incident leading to her arrest
was allegedly one of four
committed by Johnson at
CVS stores in San Mateo
County. In the Redwood
City heist, authorities say
Johnson and an unidenti-
ed woman switched the
price tags on 34 or 35
insoles valued at approxi-
mately $50 each. They
allegedly paid the cashier
$50 for the bunch and left.
After her arrest, Johnson allegedly told police
she was just the lookout for the other woman.
Prosecutors believed she planned to return
the property elsewhere for a refund.
If convicted by a jury, she faced up to four
years and eight months incarceration.
She is free from custody on $75,000 bail and
must surrender June 30.

n March, Greg Hart, a 1976
graduate, was recognized
with the Junipero Serra
Award. For many years he was the
president of the Alumni
Association. In 2010, he retired
after a long and distinguished
career in law enforcement. He has
continued his service to the com-
munity as a volunteer to several
worthy causes. He embodies all of
the virtues the school seeks to
instill in its students faith, wis-
dom, service, community and lead-
ership. For this reason, the Alumni
Association is awarding its highest
honor to him.
Hart began his police career in
1980 with the South San
Francisco Police Department
until 2005. From there, he went to
Colma and San Carlos police
departments and retired as a
commander in 2010. Not only has
Greg been involved with law
enforcement issues but also with
community issues such as collect-
ing, and delivering food to needy
families every Christmas; and
organized the Annual South City
Easter Egg Hunt for under-privi-
leged children.
As a member of his parish, St.
Roberts, Hart is involved in their
Altar Society. With his family they
decorated the church for all holi-
days and volunteered to maintain
the landscaping at the St. Robert
convent for the Presentation
Sisters.

The 17th District PTA celebrat-
ed the 115th anniversary of the
founding of the California State
PTA and 85th anniversary of the
founding of the 17th District PTA
on Feb. 22 with a luncheon at
Dominics at Oyster Point in South
San Francisco.
Founders Day honors the three
PTA founders as well as past and
present PTA leaders. The three
Founders Alice McLellan
Birney, Phoebe Apperson Hearst
and Selena Sloan Butler held
the first convention of The
National Congress of Mothers on
Feb. 17, 1897, to promote the edu-
cation, health and safety of chil-
dren, youth and families. At that
time, three-fourths of all students
left school before reaching fifth
grade, and many lived in poverty
and died from neglect.
Among those honored were:
The Ted Peck Reading
Foundation (Honorary Service
Award); The members, now num-
bering about 20 and meet at
Lucetis in San Mateo, each donate
$50 or $100 to pay for reading sup-
plies and materials for local
schools. They have adopted
Turnbull Learning Academy,
Beresford School, the
Bookmobile and one school in San
Francisco. In February 2012, they
raised $1,900 to donate to Fox
School. The Ted Peck Reading
Foundation has contributed more
than $50,000 in the past 10 years to
supply funds for teachers to buy
computers, books, study guides
and fund class study trips and
school scholarships.
Sara Otus Green
(Continuing Service Award);
Green was honored for her enthusi-
asm, her dedication and her out-
standing ability to organize PTA
events, especially those involving
and training new PTA leaders.
Dennis McBride (Honorary
Service Award); McBride began
his community involvement in edu-
cation 25 years ago when his own
two sons were in preschool. He
was actively involved in all their
public schools, and is now in his
ninth year serving as a trustee in
the Redwood City Elementary
School District.
Carrie DuBois (Honorary
Service Award); Carrie DuBois
works tirelessly and strongly advo-
cates for all the children in our com-
munity, believing that every child
deserves a high quality education
and to be safe and cared for, and
cares deeply for the underserved.
After serving six years as a trustee
in the San Carlos School District,
Carrie was elected last November to
serve on the Sequoia Union High
School District Board.

Obama administration
sets housing agency pay caps
WASHINGTON The Obama administration is clamping
down on excessive pay at public housing authorities, setting
caps that extend and expand limits imposed by Congress. The
action comes in the wake of reports last year of huge salary
packages at a handful of housing agencies, including two exec-
utives who were paid more than $600,000 each.
After conducting a national compensation survey, the
Housing and Urban Development Department plans to set a
maximum salary ceiling of $155,000 for public housing
agency ofcials, according to two senior administration of-
cials. The cap applies to the portion of executive salary paid
with federal money. It does not require congressional action.
The national survey of 2010 salaries found that while most
local public housing ofcials were compensated in amounts at
or under the new limit, a few top local housing ofcials were
getting at least twice that amount. The ofcials spoke Monday
on condition of anonymity to discuss a plan that had not yet
been made public.
Among those receiving large pay packages were top execu-
tives at housing agencies Los Angeles, Philadelphia and
Chelsea, Mass.

Obituary

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK Former
President Bill Clinton warned
Monday that a Mitt Romney presi-
dency would be calamitous for the
nation and the world, going further
than even President Barack Obama
in depicting the consequences of a
return to Republican rule of the
White House.
With Obama standing thoughtfully
to one side, Clinton slammed
Romney by name, an apparent rebut-
tal to his own comments last week
that were widely seen as attering to
Romneys background in business.
Clinton said Obama had earned a
second term because of his steering
of the economy through a miserable
situation, and that the alternative
would be, in my opinion, calamitous
for our country and the world.
Clintons take came as he helped
raise at least $3.6 million for Obama
at three New
York fundrais-
ers. The two
have patched
over a personal
rift from the
2008 campaign
when Obama
defeated Hillary
Rodham Clinton
in a bitter
Democratic primary. But Clinton
caused some heartburn in Obamas
campaign last week by remarking
that Romney had a sterling busi-
ness record an assertion that
undercut Democrats criticism of
Romneys decisions at the private
equity rm Bain Capital.
Clinton also said at the fundraiser
that Republicans and Romney have
adopted Europes economic policies.
Who would have ever thought that
the Republicans who made a living
for decades deriding Old Europe
would embrace their economic poli-
cies, he said.
For his part, Obama said the econ-
omy had been difcult for so many
voters that some could reach the
point that youre willing to try just
about anything, even if youve seen it
before.
Clintons larger point in the inter-
view last week was that Obama is the
better choice to steer the economy,
and the White House denied that
Clinton made news. The televised
remark nonetheless gave
Republicans campaign gold just as
the government released a disap-
pointing report saying the United
States created far fewer new jobs in
May than expected a big political
blow for Obama.
Obama and Clinton also are on
opposite sides of a close Democratic
congressional primary contest in
New Jersey. Clinton also cam-
paigned last week for Wisconsin
Democratic gubernatorial candidate
Tom Barrett.

contact with visiting children.
Board President Adrienne Tissier has a sim-
ilar interest in the womens space specically
but said overall the design needs to reect
what programs are desired inside its walls.
Spaces should be big enough to accommodate
classes and activities beyond television watch-
ing, she said, along with more individually-
tailored curriculums. Landscaping and gar-
dening would be nice, too, although they are
not the number one priorities, she said.
Yes, Id like the building to look nice but
were not looking for the next Taj Mahal, she
said.
For Tissier, the bottom line is reducing
recidivism along with providing security.
At the end of the day, this is a correctional
facility. This is not Shangri-La, she said.
With each county supervisor, not to mention
other stakeholders like the sheriffs planning
unit and service providers, having their own
wish list for the new jail, this afternoons
visioning workshop is a way for high-level
input before the nal blueprints are drawn up.
Sheriff Greg Munks will ask the Board of
Supervisors and others in attendance to chime
in on overall design philosophies, site plan-
ning, green building accommodations, pro-
gramming and re-entry priorities and develop-
ment features that include initiatives with the
neighboring community. Todays workshop is
one of two planned this year and the input
from both will be rolled in the nal design
which Munks will present to the board at a
later time, said Lt. Debi Bazan who heads the
jail planning unit.
Its going to be a very interactive process.
We anticipate hearing some strong messages
from the board and being very thoughtful
when it comes to design, Bazan said.
Bazan said the sheriff and planning unit
dont really anticipate putting forward their
own wishes tomorrow and will take into con-
sideration all suggestions as long as they dont
impact stafng.
Munks said he plans to listen more than
anything and wants big picture direction
instead of specic details.
What I dont want to do is go into the
process with preconceived notions, Munks
said.
Tissier said the board should be careful not
to micro-manage and let the experts do their
jobs.
Aside from her nod to the womens unit,
Groom said she is really looking forward to
hearing from the architects what they feel are
the most important features based on their
experience designing correctional facilities.
She also thinks the county can learn from mis-
steps in building the existing mens Maguire
Correctional Facility to make the replacement
even more efcient.
As currently envisioned, the new jail will be
three oors topped by 40 feet of unnished
space known as the warm shell. The hybrid
option was a compromise size chosen by the
Board of Supervisors last year.
But Horsley isnt so sure about the place-
ment of the shell and prefers the space as a
separate building.
If its on top there are no other uses than as
a jail, he said.
Horsley wants an emphasis on programs to
cut down recidivism and promote successful
re-entry back into the community.
There is a small window of opportunity for
people to change and this would give us a
place to help that, Horsley said.
Munks said he is 100 percent open to the
idea but is concerned about added costs and
stafng challenges.
Tissier also said the board needs to look at
the reality of construction and operational
costs both significant points, too, for
Supervisor Dave Pine.
I think we have to always talk about this
against our scal realities, Pine said.
Pine also thinks the warm shell, with its
interim programming, and the intake and pro-
cessing areas lend themselves more to
ground-level construction than a multi-story
jail.
The Board of Supervisors in May approved
$16.5 million in contracts with Hellmuth
Obata + Kassabaum for architectural services
and Sundt/Layton for construction manage-
ment services. The jail itself is estimated to
cost approximately $155 million with roughly
$40 million a year in operating expenses.
Munks and other county ofcials are still
keeping their ngers crossed that up to $100
million in state construction funds will come
through but have said chronic overcrowding
and a dilapidated womens facility mean they
will build a new jail facility regardless.
Later this month, demolition and prepara-
tion will begin at the 4.58-acre former
Chemical Way site in Redwood City the coun-
ty specifically bought for $17 million to
accommodate the 260,000-square-foot jail.
Completion is anticipated in 2015.
Despite the county moving forward, plan
opponents hold rm in calling for its derail-
ment.
There is no money to build this jail, all
studies show that we dont need it and its
clear that San Mateo residents dont want it.
Its like the supervisors put this project on
autopilot and are avoiding all responsibility
for what comes next, said Manuel La
Fontaine of opposition group All or Us or
None in a prepared statement issued prior to
the workshop.
The jail planning workshop is 1:30 p.m.
Tuesday. June 5 in Board Chambers, 400

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
YEREVAN, Armenia Secretary of State
Hillary Rodham Clinton on Monday kicked
off three days of diplomacy in Europes
Caucasus, expressing concern about recent
clashes between Armenia and Azerbaijan as
she hopes to mediate progress on a slew of
trade and territorial disputes.
In the middle of a weeklong European tour,
Clinton decried the senseless deaths of young
soldiers and innocent civilians as part of the
Nagorno-Karabakh conict just hours after
the latest border clash. Armenia said three of
its soldiers died and ve were wounded. It
wasnt clear if any Azeri soldiers died.
I am very concerned about the danger of
escalation of tensions and the senseless deaths
of young soldiers and innocent civilians,
Clinton told reporters after a dinner with
Armenias president and foreign minister.
The use of force will not resolve the
Nagorno-Karabakh conict, she said, urging
the sides to refrain from violence.
The border clash underscored the instability
of a region with long-simmering problems and
surrounded by powerful neighbors Russia,
Turkey and Iran. She left
Armenia Monday night for
neighboring Georgia, look-
ing to strengthen security
ties with a stalwart U.S.
ally that was crushed in its
2008 war against Russia
and hopes to regain control
over two lost provinces.
She visits Azerbaijan
Wednesday.
Warning that Azeri-Armenian tensions
could escalate into a broader conict with ter-
rible consequences, she said the U.S. would
continue to press with France, Russia and oth-
ers on mediation efforts.
The mountainous Nagorno-Karabakh
enclave is within ex-Soviet Azerbaijan, but
was taken over by Armenia during a six-year
separatist war that killed about 30,000 people
and displaced 1 million. Since the wars end in
1994, it has remained under the control of
Armenian troops and ethnic Armenian forces.
Violations of the cease-re have been fre-
quent, and diplomatic efforts to solve the con-
ict have failed. The U.S. hopes that at the
least Armenia and Azerbaijan can agree to a set
of basic principles that might lead toward
peace. These include the return of territories
and uprooted people to their homes, and an
eventual vote on the areas future.
Washington also wants to normalize rela-
tions between Armenia and Turkey, whose
enmity reects the Nagorno-Karabakh conict
and the Ottoman Empire-era killing of some
1.5 million Armenians.
The Obama administration has tried hard to
help Armenia improve its economy, not least
as a nod to the inuential Armenian-American
community, which is particularly strong in the
Los Angeles area. Clinton, making her second
trip to the region as secretary of state, helped
Armenia and Turkey reach an agreement in
2009 that would have opened up their borders
and normalized relations.
But the deal stalled back as Turkeys parlia-
ment refused to ratify it.
The ball remains in Turkeys court,
Clinton lamented.
Armenias problems are compounded by its
geography. Cut off from trade with its boom-
ing neighbor Azerbaijan on one side and
Azerbaijans ally Turkey on the other, it must
conduct all its international commerce through
Georgia and Russia to the north. It is heavily
dependent on Moscow for fuel.

Letters to the editor
The importance of Proposition 29
Editor,
San Mateo Countys public health pro-
grams to help smokers quit are successful but
underfunded (Proposition aims to add a $1 a
pack tax to cigarettes article in the May 28
edition of the Daily Journal). Proposition 29
helps address the tobacco epidemic with new
funding for cancer research and revitalizing
programs to help Californians who smoke to
quit and live healthier lives.
As a local lung health organization provid-
ing tobacco prevention and cessation services
to San Mateo County residents, Breathe
California is in strong support of Proposition
29. The research funds would be overseen by
a committee of cancer center directors,
University of California chancellors, and at
least one person who has suffered from a
tobacco-related illness. Grants and loans
would be funded based on a peer-reviewed
process modeled after the National Institute
of Health. The tobacco prevention and cessa-
tion funds would be administered by the
competitive grant programs administered by
the California Department of Public Health.
Breathe Californias Ashkickers classes
help San Mateo County residents quit smok-
ing by providing a strategy, support group
and follow-up, along with connecting partici-
pants with nicotine replacement therapy to
beat cigarette addiction. Limited funding
means that our communities lack specialized
programs to stop the health impacts of smok-
ing tobacco.
Unfortunately, the opposition campaign has
launched a deceptive campaign to mislead
voters about the accountability of the funds
collected, featuring a doctor who has
appeared for the tobacco industry over and
over in ads they bankroll. Proposition 29
would cost the tobacco industry more than
$800 million annually, so its not surprising
that they just dumped another $14 million to
fund the campaign opposing the initiative.
Please vote yes on Prop 29 to prevent pre-
mature deaths from smoking.

When does the end
justify the means?
N
ot often do we collectively begrudge
a student something he or she has
earned. However, recent news that
the 18-year-old son of gazillionaire hip-hop
mogul Sean Combs was awarded a $54,000
athletic scholarship to
a California state uni-
versity has many
singing a different
tune.
Does merit trump
means? Should nan-
cial need override
ability and hard
work?
The debate about
Combs full ride to
the University of
California at Los
Angeles could be had in any given year but is
particularly sharpened now when the state sys-
tem is so cash-strapped and students every-
where ght for precious crumbs of nancial
need. Sure Combs might be the next Einstein
and Heisman winner rolled into one pretty lit-
tle package but is it really fair to cut him a
check for an education worth less than six
times his rst car?
Fairness is the key word in this discussion.
We all know the common refrain about the
world not being fair. Some are born into fami-
lies where there was never any doubt of a col-
lege fund. Others come from a place where
even scrimping and saving doesnt guarantee a
trip to the ivory tower. Some have fathers
whose every changing nicknames generate
headlines. Others have parents who cant carry
a tune in a bucket or maybe cant afford the
bucket.
Unlike money, merit is supposed to level the
playing eld. Work hard, be rewarded is a
common mantra for educators, parents and
pretty much everyone who believes there is
more to proving ones worth that having
mommy or daddy cut a check.
Yet, it is admittedly hard to see a teenager
with so many advantages be given a scholar-
ship that, frankly, he just doesnt need. Justin
Combs is not the child of rich parents who
dont believe in footing his college bill. Just
look at the MTV special on his 16th birthday
for a glimpse into the nancial benets his
genetics afford, including that $360,000
Maybach. Sweet indeed.
On the other hand, some families of means
do believe in making the younger generations
earn their own way. In picking out scholarship
recipients, are selection committees supposed
to know the difference? For that matter, when
the scholarships are not based on need they
shouldnt be looking at recipients nances at
all.
Justin Combs took to Twitter to defend the
scholarship, saying he put in the work. UCLA
also defended its decision, arguing that athletic
scholarships come from a different source than
other nancial aid and have no impact on the
aid given others. Both are likely true (being no
expert on either high school athletes or col-
lege-level nancial aid, Ill put equal stock in
both claims).
But its also true that seeing somebody in his
position receive the type of scholarship that
can change the life of somebody less fortunate
rankles a little bit. The young Combs may
have rightfully earned his place in the school
and on the team but society has a strong cyni-
cal streak that makes it hard to swallow the
idea neither came from a hefty dose of
favoritism. We love it when underdogs and the
underprivileged come out ahead; that theme is
a movie and book staple. On the other hand,
when those who start with a leg up are able to
climb even further we cringe and assume it
couldnt possibly be due to hard work and
ability. How does that possibly encourage chil-
dren of nancially set parents to do anything
beyond stay trust fund babies and maybe reach
for a reality show?
Heres hoping then that the younger Combs
continues putting the same work ethic that got
him the scholarship into his education and his
life. He may not be able to directly aid another
students dreams by turning down the award
but he can certainly serve as an example that
ones actual worth is different than the content
of their bank account.

State propositions
Proposition 28-YES
Proposition 28 would extend the amount of
time a legislator can hold office in either the
state Senate or Assembly to 12 years but
reduce the amount of time a legislator can
hold office in both houses of the state
Legislature from 14 to 12. A yes vote means
state legislators can be more effective in one
house, while not thinking about making the
jump to another house. Term limits means
legislators often spend too much time run-
ning for office rather than conducting the
business of the state. This proposition
would allow a constant tenure in one of the
states legislative bodies.
***
Proposition 29-NO
Proposition 29 imposes an additional $1 per
pack tax on cigarettes and an equiva-
lent tax increase on other tobacco
products. Revenue produced
from this tax would fund
research for cancer and tobac-
co-related illnesses. While this
proposition is a step up from
other similar proposals that seek
to fund unrelated programs from
cigarette taxes in that the revenue
produced will go toward disease research,
but now is not the time to create a new gov-
ernment program funded with tax money. In
addition, the majority of cigarette smokers
are low-income and a new tax on that popu-
lation is an unfair burden.
County measures
Measure T-NO
Measure T imposes a 2.5 percent business
license tax on vehicle rental businesses
operating in unincorporated areas of the
county. It requires a majority vote to pass.
This measure is aimed at the San Francisco
International Airport and seeks $7.75 mil-
lion a year for the county government.
Ostensibly, it will tax out-of-town visitors
but could make large meeting and conven-
tion planners consider taking their business
elsewhere. In addition, air travel at SFO is
rebounding, but it has been a long road
since the downturn after the terrorist attacks
of Sept. 11, 2001. It is too tenuous a time to
create any disincentive for air travel to the
area and add risk to local business owners
who depend on tourist revenue.
***
Measure U-YES
Measure U increases the existing transient
occupancy tax from 10 percent to 12 percent
in the unincorporated areas of the county
and brings it in line with similar taxes
imposed by local cities. It requires a majori-
ty vote to pass. This measure would mean a
modest increase to the hotel tax in the unin-
corporated areas of the county approxi-
mately $1.50 for a $75 a night visit. It aims
to raise approximately $200,000 a year for
the county government.
***
Measure W-YES
Measure W is a $67 parcel tax to
improve education at elementary
and middle schools in the
Redwood City Elementary
School District. It requires
two-thirds vote to pass. In the last
five years, the district has had to
make due with $13 million in cuts in the
last five years and no one has had a raise.
The current student to teacher ratio is 30 to
1 a number which most people agree is
too high for effective education. The parcel
tax will not cure the districts ills but it is a
modest measure to assist it in a tight fiduci-
ary time and is certainly warranted this
year.
***
Measure X-NO
Measure X imposes an 8 percent business
license tax on commercial parking facility
operators in unincorporated areas of the
county. It requires majority vote to pass.
This measure would likely be passed on to
customers, many who live in this county
and use these facilities when taking flights
from SFO elsewhere.
***
Measure Z-YES
Measure Z will mean the continuation of a
parcel tax of no higher than $65 for four
more years County Fire Service Area 1, also
known as the Highlands. It requires two-
thirds vote to pass. The county currently
contracts with the California Department of
Forestry and Fire Protection for coverage of
its unincorporated areas like the Highlands
but voters there also pay an additional
amount of $65 per parcel to increase the
level of service. The tax was set at $65 in
1996 and generates approximately $92,000
annually.

Calm returned to the stock market
Monday after a spasm of fearful selling
last week. Major indexes closed mixed
after trading modestly lower for most of
the day.
The Dow Jones industrial average
opened at its lowest level since
December after a 275-point sell-off on
Friday ignited by grim economic signals,
especially a dismal report on the U.S.
labor market.
Randy Frederick, managing director of
active trading and derivatives at the bro-
kerage Charles Schwab, expects trading
to remain slow and steady unless traders
are moved by positive news, like a sur-
prisingly strong economic report, or
fresh fears about Europes nancial sta-
bility.
Youve got to nd a catalyst for peo-
ple to enter the market, and frankly, I just
dont see one right now, Frederick said.
In Europe, bond investors appeared
less concerned about the nances of
some of the regions nancially troubled
countries. Bond yields fell for Italy and
Spain, meaning that they appear less like-
ly to default. Lower bond yields translate
into decreased borrowing costs for those
debt-strapped nations.
The price of the 10-year U.S. Treasury
note fell, lifting its yield to 1.53 percent.
The yield hit a record low of 1.44 percent
on Friday as fears of a global slowdown
increased demand for safe investments.
The Dow closed down 17.11 points, or
0.1 percent, at 12,101.46. The Standard
& Poors 500 index rose a fraction to
1,278.18. The Nasdaq composite index
rose 12.53, or 0.5 percent, to 2,760.01.
Among the ten industry groups in the
S&P 500, only three fell: Energy compa-
nies, whose revenue will be hurt by
falling oil prices; industrials, hit by fears
of a global economic slowdown; and
nancial stocks, which would likely bear
the brunt if Europes problems wors-
ened.
Caterpillar, which exports heavy
machinery, fell 2.6 percent on fears that
slower building in China and Europe will
reduce demand for construction equip-
ment. Most of the other big losers in the
Dow average offer global nancial serv-
ices: JPMorgan Chase, General Electric
and Bank of America.
Chesapeake Energy, the second-
biggest U.S. natural gas producer, rose 6
percent, the most in the S&P 500. The
company said it will replace four board
members, bowing to pressure from
activist shareholder Carl Icahn.

Big movers
By Christopher S. Rugaber
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Faced with a z-
zling job market, many economists have
turned more pessimistic and no longer
think U.S. economic growth will accel-
erate later this year.
Fridays surprisingly bleak jobs report
for May followed a spate of weak U.S.
economic data last week. Manufacturing
activity slowed, an index of home con-
tracts fell and consumer condence tum-
bled. Mounting troubles in Europe and
elsewhere have heightened economists
concerns.
Julia Coronado, an economist at BNP
Paribas in New York, said she now
expects growth of 2.2 percent this year,
down from her previous forecast of 2.4
percent. She also revised down her esti-
mate of growth in the April-June quarter
to a 2.2 percent annual rate, from a 2.5
percent rate.
We keep hoping that were going to
turn a corner and move into a stronger
phase of recovery, and the door keeps
getting slammed shut, Coronado said.
After the jobs report Friday, JPMorgan
Chase sharply reduced its growth fore-
cast for the July-September quarter to a
2 percent annual rate, down from 3 per-
cent. It cited the weaker U.S. hiring and
a likely drop in U.S. exports related to
slower growth overseas.
And JPMorgan Chase now forecasts
growth of 2.1 percent for 2012, down
from 2.3 percent.
Forecasting firm Macroeconomic
Advisers and Swiss bank UBS have also
marked down their expectations since
Fridays jobs report.
Economic outlook darkens after jobs report
Starbucks buys bakery to improve food offerings
NEW YORK Starbucks Corp. is looking to offer a more
tempting menu, with a $100 million cash deal to buy a small bak-
ery chain.
The Seattle-based coffee shop chain says baked goods from La
Boulange will start replacing its current lineup early next year,
starting with French pastries such as the croissant. Products will
start appearing in Bay Area stores rst then roll out nationally.
Starbucks also says it plans to make the San Francisco-area
bakery into a national presence in the years ahead.
Well take it one store at a time, starting in metropolitan areas
around the U.S. where theres demand, said Cliff Burrows, pres-
ident of Starbucks Americas.
Food has become an important part of Starbucks revenue
stream in recent years, with the segment now generating $1.5 bil-
lion a year. About a third of the purchases in its U.S. locations
include a food item.
Kids could someday get on Facebook, without lying
NEW YORK Though Facebook bans children under 13,
millions of them have proles on the site by lying about their age.
The company is now testing ways to allow those kids to par-
ticipate without needing to lie. This would likely be under
parental supervision, such as by connecting childrens accounts
to their parents accounts.
Like many other online services, Facebook prohibits kids
under 13 because federal law requires companies to obtain
parental consent if they want to collect information about those
children.

As more companies promote themselves on Facebook, Twitter

Peninsula Gymnatics Maddie
Tom roams the hall of Carlmont
High School during the day looking
vey much like a normal teenager.
But shes not. No, sir. If you talk to
anyone at her gym on Leslie Street
in San Mateo, theyll tell you that as
soon as Tom puts on that gymnastics
leotard, shes more like a super
woman.
Maddie is a dream come true,
said Jessica Wickizer, who coaches
Tom along with George Isuan.
Shes got the physical talent, but
shes also very bright. Shes very
caring.
And that list could go on and on.
But truthfully, what sets Tom apart is
her courage, her guts and her deter-
mination all of which are quali-
ties of a hero.
The last time the Daily Journal
saw Tom, she was quite shy and
embarrassed over an ankle injury
that was threatening her competitive
year and a shot at Nationals (plus the
consideration of four-year universi-
ties). She was recovering from a bro-
ken growth plate in her ankle. The
healing process wasnt going as
planned, but after a spectacular
showing at Regionals that resulted in
an invite to Nationals, the thought of
not competing at the highest level
served as a form of anesthesia for the
soon-to-be junior and only Level 10
gymnast at Peninsula.
She was determined, Wickizer
said. She had a goal. She wanted to
go to Nationals and started compet-
ing in all four events and qualied to
Nationals. Even when we were at
Nationals, at the training she was
really struggling with some pain in
her ankles. I didnt know what she
was going to be able to do, but she,
just like real a champion, stepped it
up and hit all four of her routines. It
was pretty amazing.
Tom fought through a couple
months of pain and uncertainty as
the biggest competition of her life
loomed overhead.
We did very minimal training on
the vault and the oor which are the
events that hurt her the most,
Wickizer said of Toms training.
But, she proved to us that she could
do her routines even with minimal
training, so we felt condent that she
would be able to do it.
I was actually really worried,
Tom said of her injuries heading into
Nationals, because the practice the
day before it was hurting really
badly and I could barely walk. But it
was Nationals I had to compete in
all four events. I couldnt really
think about it.
I really couldnt believe it. At the
beginning of the season, I was only
competing in one event and then I
didnt expect to make it to Regionals
making it to Nationals was really
overwhelming.
Overwhelming for a variety of
reasons. In some ways, Tom has
become a poster child for the work
being done at Peninsula Gymnastics.
Shes their highest leveled gymnast

Surovell races his heart out at State
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Carlmonts Elliot Surovell knew
just one thing heading into the
California Interscholastic
Federation Track and Field
Championships in Clovis over
weekend: In order for him to reach
his goal of racing for a title, hed
have to race his heart out.
And according to Carlmont head
coach Jennifer Randazzo, he literal-
ly did just that.
Only eight local athletes repre-
sented the county over the weekend
at the CIF championships.. And at
the end of the two-day event, only a
pair reached the nal day of compe-
tition. Surovell was one of them.
Unfortunately, there was no
medal glory.
Surovell was the top local per-
former with his efforts in the 400
meter dash. Surovell won the
Central Coast Section race with a
48.98 mark and actually qualied in
third place following the prelimi-
naries with a 47.73.
His time took a hit during
Saturdays final. His 49.51 was
good for ninth overall in the CIFs
championship.
It was a great experience for
him, Randazzo said. He ran the
race of his life on Friday and
Saturday. As a coaching staff we
couldnt have asked for anything
more.
Surovells race was the culmina-
tion of a great year for the senior,
who didnt break 50 seconds in the
400 meter race until the last week in
March, according to Randazzo.
We knew his goal at the begin-
ning of the year was to go to CCS
and the state meet, Randazzo said.
It was windier on Saturday and
after running two races that hard
within 24 hours, youre bound to
come out a bit sluggish. He hung in
there as long as he could.
He was so happy after his race.
He was happy he came that far and
it was great seeing him in the nals.
Its not always who can get there the
fastest, its the road you took to get
there. It made every race up until
then worth it.
Suffering a similar fate was
Westmoors Kylie Goo. The Rams
junior nished second at CCS in the
girls 800 meter run and placed third

Stanford ace is Appel of Pittsburghs eye
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
Stanford ace Mark Appel was the last of the
collegiate big three to be selected in yester-
days Major League Baseball First-Year
Player Draft.
The Orioles and Royals were the rst two
teams to dip into the pool of college pitching.
Baltimore selected LSU sophomore Kevin
Gausman with the fourth-overall pick, while
Kansas City selected USF junior Kyle
Zimmer fth overall.
After projecting as a candidate to be select-
ed as the rst overall pick, Appels fall to
eighth overall was the Pirates gain, as
Pittsburgh added to a superb depth of minor
league pitching by drafting Appel in the rst
round yesterday.
Last year, the Pirates drafted UCLA stand-
out Gerrit Cole with the rst overall pick. In
2010, they took Woodlands High School
right-hander Jameson Taillon second overall.
The tandem is currently fronting the pitching
staff at Pirates High-A afliate Bradenton of
the Florida State League the East Coast
equivalent of the California League in which
the San Jose Giants play.
Appel and the Pirates have until the newly
restructured signing deadline of July 13 to
agree on contract deal.
Our hope and expectation is to have Mark
join [Cole and Taillon], Pirates general man-
ager Neal Huntington said via conference call.
It will be a nice trio of arms to go along
with some of our other young guys that weve
drafted, and are developing. Were creating a
depth of pitching, which you can never have
enough pitching. But, the potential to have
three starters with their abilities three near
top-of-rst round picks those are three
pretty good arms, and three pretty good pedi-
grees to run through our system.
Of course, striking a pro deal will have to
wait for Appel, who is still on the active
Stanford roster. The Cardinal are headed to
Super Regional postseason play this weekend
to face Florida State, and Appel is all but cer-
tain to take the ball in the opener. Appel is cur-
rently 10-1 with a 2.27 ERA, and has notched
127 strikeouts over 119 innings this season.
He is a college pitcher. He goes about it
very well, Huntington said. He has knowl-
edge on the mound. He uses his stuff very
well. There is an adjustment from collegiate
baseball to professional baseball but he
certainly has the stuff to progress through the
system, and thats why hes so highly thought
of.
Cardinal sweep Regionals
Stanford made a statement Sunday in claim-
ing its Regional Playoff victory with an 8-7
win over Pepperdine at Sunken Diamond. The
Cardinal hitting .291 as a team can
swing it. And overtaking an early decit with a
ve-run fourth inning showed they know they
can.
With the win, Stanford is set to take on
Florida State for the rst time since 2008. The
Seminoles can hit too. Buster Poseys alma
mater surpassed the 400-run plateau on the
season in Sundays 5-2 win over Samford to
sweep through their Regional Playoff series in
Tallahassee, Fla.
Florida State will be looking to make a state-
ment as well. The last time the two teams met,
Stanford breezed to a 16-5 win in the opener of
the 2008 College World Series. The Seminoles
went two-and-out and Stanford went 2-2
both afterthoughts to many West Coast base-
ball fans amid Fresno States Cinderella
National Championship season.
Although Appel tops the draft board among
this years talented Stanford draft class, the
Cardinal are driven by their starting nine. They
scored 22 runs on 30 hits through the three-
game regional sweep, while every starter had a
chance to contribute some heroics.
In Sundays 8-7 comeback victory, Austin
Wilson and Alex Blandino shared the spot-
light. Wilson entered play hitting at a 1-for-8
clip on the postseason. Blandino was 3 for 8,
but with an unglamorous three singles.
Sunday, however, the two powered the biggest
inning of Stanfords postseason thus far.
Trailing 4-3 with the bases loaded and two
out, Wilson smoked a two-run single up the
middle to give Stanford a 5-4 lead. Blandino
took the next pitch downtown with a majestic
three-run home run to left, upping the lead to
8-4.
Meanwhile, starting pitcher Stephen
Piscotty settled in to earn a gutsy win.
Piscotty was Stanfords top draft pick among
positions players yesterday, going 36th overall
to the St. Louis Cardinals, after hitting .318
with a team-best 55 RBIs this season. But,
Piscotty is also a seminalist for the John
Olerud Award, given to the best collegiate
two-way player in the nation, as the right-han-
der has been the saving grace of the back end
of the starting rotation.
Piscotty surrendered four runs early all
in the rst inning by virtue of ve very
loud hits. But, the junior turned it around big
time, setting down 11 straight Pepperdine hit-
ters, starting with the nal out of the rst
inning. By the time another Waves batter
reached in the fth, Stanford was in command
of the 8-4 lead.
Pepperdine made it interesting, plating
three in the seventh to close it to 8-7 and chase
Piscotty from the game. But, junior right-han-
der Sahil Bloom entered with the tying run on
base to close the door on the rally, and ulti-
mately the game, by going 2 2-3 innings to
earn his second save of the year.
In addition to nabbing Piscotty yesterday,
St. Louis drafted another Bay Area player in
St. Marys third baseman Patrick Wisdom.
Wisdoms nine home runs ranked third in the
West Coast Conference this season. The
Cardinals who owned ve rst-round picks
took Wisdom with the 52nd overall selec-
tion.
STANFORD ATHLETICS
The Pirates were pleasantly surprised to see
Stanfords Mark Appel available at the No. 8
spot in the Major League Baseball Draft.

hit (2:12.52) that was good enough for
ninth overall.
Burlingame sophomore Greer
Chrisman ended her state run after the
rst day when her 46.38 in the 300

the qualifying time.
In the eld events, Sabrina Mendoza
produced three solid throws in the shot

STATE
and coaches believe she has the ability to compete at the col-
lege level which would make her the rst gymnast out of
Peninsula to reach that goal. Tom said her nerves were on
point the two pratice days heading into the competition as col-
lege coaches from around the nation converged on Nationals
to scout the best young talent available.
It was really nerve-racking at rst, Tom said, because
every single college was there and I really wanted to make a
good impression, but the day of the competition, I really was-
nt thinking about it too much.
In fact, pain and pressure the days before were replaced by
adrenaline and her competitive spirit the day of the nal event.
Tom started on the vault, the event that put the most stress
on her ailing ankle. When she got through that, Wickizer
said, it was a sigh of relief.
Tom gained even more condence after nailing her bars rou-
tine and actually had to calm her excitement and growing con-
dence a bit heading into the beam where Wickizer said, she
put on a awless effort.
The oor exercise was Toms last challenge. She rode her
momentum and nished a competition that not too long ago
seemed impossible given her physical obstacles.
I didnt rank as high as everyone else, Tom said, but per-
sonally, it was a good score for me. It was a good meet espe-
cially with all my physical pain. I didnt have any regrets at
all.
Maddie exceeded all of my expectations, Wickizer said.
She started the season only competing on bars because she
was in so much pain. She accomplished a lot this season, but
she wants to accomplish much more next season. She doesnt
just want to qualify for Nationals next year, she wants to win
it.
Tom said she was very relieved following her showing at
Nationals, if anything, her strong showing and an even greater
determination is fueling her to get 100 percent healthy and go
even harder next season.
For now, Tom says shes focusing on the summer and
preparing herself for her junior year at Carlmont, plus the visit
of a certain musical group from across the pond that she hap-
pens to be a fan of who will visit the Bay Area very soon.
Its these little strokes of personality, coupled with her com-
petitive toughness that make Tom a gem.
On Saturday, Wickizer said, as Im leaving practice, I
saw her sitting by the door to get picked up by her mom and
she had a Level 5 kid on her lap. They were both waiting for
their parents. I dont think you see that very often if you go to
other gyms a Level 10 hanging out with a Level 5. But
thats Maddie. She takes on that role of being the role model.
Its really amazing. Shes just a good kid and a good person
and this season couldnt have happened to a more deserving
athlete.

TOM Kalush ends career in style
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Scott Kalush was never a marquee
name during his playing days at Aragon.
But those inside baseball recognized his
hard work and dedication to the art of
catching would further his playing days.
Coming out of Aragon, U.C. Davis
was the only Division I school to offer
Kalush a scholarship, but the Aggies
coaching staff must have liked what they
saw. Kalush became a part-time starter
midway through his freshman year and
has been the full-time starter the last two
seasons. Kalush capped his college
career this year in grand style his nal
collegiate hit was a home run and last
week he was named to the All Big West
second team list.
Honestly, I didnt know what to
expect (when I got to Davis). I didnt
have super high expectations, Kalush
said. When I rst got here, I didnt
think I would be All Big West second
team.
There were few better behind the plate
in the Big West this season than Kalush.
He started all 52 games and he led the
conference by picking off six base run-
ners and threw out 17 trying to steal
third-best in the Big West.
I felt like, throughout the conference,
they gave me pretty good respect as a
catcher, just the way I controlled my
pitching staff, Kalush said.
Offensively, Kalush batted just .240,
but his ve homers tied for the team
lead, his 24 RBIs were good for third-
best and with 42 hits, he ranked sixth on
the Aggies squad.
I tried to make the hits count the
most, Kalush said. I think this year I
felt a lot more comfortable. Just being
older, being more experienced, I felt I
knew what was coming.
Kalush realized from an early age he
would have to excel on defense to carve
out a place for himself in the game. He
beneted greatly from working with his
older brother, Steve who also starred
at Aragon and went on to pitch for four
years at Santa Clara University and
dad Ed. Considering Steve Kalush was a
few years older, young Scott was
exposed to a lot of older players and
experienced coaches who helped with
his development.
I was never the best hitter on any of
my teams. I knew defense was where I
was going to have to do my best,
Kalush said. One of the things that
helped me most was catching my broth-
er. I learned to catch better, older guys.

MILLBRAE I
recently attended a
family funeral in
Southern California.
The burial took
place at a long
established Catholic
Cemetery which
later decided to build a Mortuary facility on
their property. I knew from past experience
that this cemetery was well maintained and
had a good reputation. The immediate
family had other loved-ones buried at the
cemetery and wished to return this time too.
With the knowledge that this cemetery had a
Mortuary on the grounds they trusted it to be
convenient and decided to have this facility
handle the funeral arrangements.
Prior to the funeral I had some phone
contact with the Mortuary staff and saw
nothing out of the ordinary. But soon after I
spoke to family members who relayed
troubling details such as higher than average
costs, questionable service and other
apprehensions that raised a red-fag. I
listened carefully taking into consideration
that funerals and arrangements may be
conducted differently in Southern California
(as compared to here on the Peninsula).
Later though I discovered that these
concerns and others were all valid as I
experienced them myself during the funeral.
Coming from the background of owning
a family run and community supportive
funeral home I was embarrassed at what I
saw as a production line process with little
compassion or time to care for the families
this Mortuary is supposed to be serving.
I wondered how the Catholic Church
could allow this Mortuary to operate in such
a manner? Well, I did some research and
discovered that the Archdiocese of Los
Angeles has mortuaries located on a
number of their cemetery properties, but
does not operate them. According to the
Funeral Consumers Alliance of Southern
California the Archdiocese has an
arrangement with Stewart Enterprises
which is a New Orleans based mortuary
corporation. Stewart Enterprises runs a
website called Catholic Mortuaries.com
giving a misleading impression to many that
the Catholic Church operates these facilities.
When patronizing one of these
mortuaries on Catholic cemetery grounds
most families assume that they will be
receiving a level of comfort as they would
from their local church or parish priest.
None of this was evident during my
experience of extremely high costs
(compared to what was received) and the
dis-interested service provided by the
mortuary staff. I dont see this as a failing
of the Catholic cemetery, but of those in
charge of running this mortuary.
The point Im trying to make is to do
your homework and shop for a Funeral
establishment you are comfortable with.
Just because a Mortuary is located on
cemetery property doesnt mean they are
your only choice or that they offer fair costs
or give better quality ofservice. You have
the right to select what ever funeral home
you wish to conduct the arrangements. Talk
to various funeral directors, and ask friends
and families who they would recommend.
If you ever wish to discuss cremation,
funeral matters or want to make pre-
planning arrangements please feel free to
call me and my staff at the CHAPEL OF
THE HIGHLANDS in Millbrae at (650)
588-5116 and we will be happy to guide you
in a fair and helpful manner. For more info

He also spent a lot of time around Steves
summer league team, the San Mateo Post 82
American Legion program. Even though he
wasnt quite old enough to play, he was soak-
ing up the lessons taught by the Post 82 coach-
ing staff, especially former coach Mike
Chanteloup.
Even when I wasnt on the (Post 82) team,
I was watching (them) and they always helped
me out, Kalush said. I learned a lot from
Chanty just talking to him and watching those
(teams) play.
Chanteloup is a longtime baseball coach on
the Peninsula and ran the Post 82 program for
about a decade. He saw a lot of talented play-
ers come through the system and even though
he coached Kalush for only a couple summer
seasons, he saw he had the tools to excel at
catcher.
I knew he would be a better college guy
than high school guy. Most guys go the other
way, Chanteloup said. He was like a 4.0 stu-
dent behind the plate. The highest compliment
I heard at Davis was how every one of their
pitchers loved throwing to him.
I think he was born to be a catcher. The
term tools of ignorance (a common baseball
term for those who strap on the catchers
equipment) dont apply. I think Scotty was the
maestro of an orchestra back there.
One thing Kalush learned sooner than a lot
of catchers was how to work with a pitching
staff and how to call games. It takes a lot of
hard work for a coaching staff to feel comfort-
able turning over the pitch calling to the catch-
er, who has to know the general tendencies of
every opposing batter not only what reputa-
tion they bring into game, but how their at-bats
have gone for that particular game. Kalush
said he started calling his own pitches a few
times during his sophomore year but called a
majority of the pitches his junior and senior
seasons. That puts Kalush ahead of the curve
over a lot of other college catchers, who are
rarely given the freedom to call their own
games, but is an integral part of the pro game.
Those kinds of skills are rare in college play-
ers and Kalush is hoping that will generate
enough interest from professional scouts to
take a chance on him in the rst-year amateur
baseball draft this week.
Ive gotten a little bit (of interest from pro
scouts). Nothing for certain, Kalush said.
Im hopeful someone will take a chance on
me.
Kalush is condent there is still a place in
the pro game for a defense-first catcher.
Especially when one considers teams are tak-
ing offense-rst catchers and moving them to
other, safer, positions. The San Francisco
Giants are going through it right now with
Buster Posey and the Washington Nationals
wasted no time in moving phenom Bryce
Harper who was a catcher to the outeld
as soon as he was drafted.
I think (being a defensive catcher) is even
more important (now), Kalush said. You
really have to make the pitchers the best.
Having a defensive catcher really helps there.
Even if his name isnt called by a profes-
sional organization, Kalush can be satised he
became a legitimate Division I college player
during a time when emphasis and the spotlight
are placed on offense.
Overall, the four years were pretty success-
ful. I didnt expect to be starting all four
years, Kalush said. All the hard work paid
off.
Count Chanteloup among those who believe
Kalush can play at the next level.
I dont think hes done (playing),
Chanteloup said.

win plateau, continuing as the states all-time
win leader.
Cal-Hi Sports editor Mark Tennis told me a
couple months ago, I dont think [any coach]
has 800.
Not only is the wins record a testament to
Liggetts longevity, but also to the sheer talent
that resides in Belmont and San Carlos which
consistently keeps Carlmont in the mix for the
best team in the Central Coast Section. If
Liggett averages 20 wins over the next ve
seasons, hell eclipse the 1,000-win plateau.
Player Id Pay to Watch: Freddy Avis,
Menlo baseball. Coming into the year, Avis
had built his reputation on pitching. After this
season, hes made a name with his bat.
In the playoffs alone, he batted .500 with
seven RBIs including three bombs that will
become legend in future CCS playoff games.
In the rst round against St. Thomas More, he
hit a pair to right eld the second of which
Menlo manager Craig Schoof said was the
longest left-handed shot hed seen in his 25
years. It came closer to the house behind the
scoreboard and the tree line than not. It had to
be close to a 400-foot blast.
And while I didnt witness it, Daily Journal
reporter Julio Lara said his homer in the CCS
Division III championship game was one of
the longest home runs hes seen at San Jose
Municipal Stadium. Schoof echoed that senti-
ment.
But its not just the home runs. As a lefty
hitter, he has that sweet lefty stroke. He has
power to all elds, he drives the ball. Not
many have come through the Peninsula in the
last decade who have had as much potential as
Avis.
If not for his solid commitment to Stanford,
Avis would most likely been an early-round
draft pick.
Most Dominant PAL Sport: Badminton.
Not traditionally known as a CCS power, PAL
badminton, as a whole, appears poised for a
run of success for the next several seasons.
At the CCS championships last month, the
PAL captured two CCS titles, two second-
place nishers and a fourth-place nish. The
girls singles championship match featured
two PAL freshmen Aragons Candy Zhang
and Crystal Springs Uplands Schools Tiffany
Xi. Meanwhile, Zhangs younger sister is
waiting in the wings.
Many coaches in the PAL credit the prolif-
eration of badminton clubs along the
Peninsula to raising the games prole. Its
actually cool to play badminton now and more
of the athletes are taking it more seriously.
Biggest Surprise: Serra baseball. The
Padres almost made this list for all the wrong
reasons, as they opened the season 4-8 and
plummeted to the depth of the West Catholic
Athletic League standings.
But manager Craig Gianinno kept working,
as did the players, and things started to turn
around during the Knights of Columbus tour-
nament. Serra went 3-1 in the tournament, fol-
lowed that with a 2-2 mark over its next four,
before ripping off eight wins in its nal nine
games eight straight in WCAL play cul-
minating with a WCAL tournament champi-
onship. The Padres winning streak of seven
was ended by St. Francis in the CCS Division
I seminals.
Most Memorable Incident: South City-El
Camino, bench-clearing brawl. Ive said it
before and Ill say it again: Every time I think
Ive seen everything in baseball, I realize I
havent. Of course Ive seen players empty the
benches on at the professional level and I
know it happens at the high school level, I had
never witnessed one in person until the
Warriors and Colts let emotions get the better
of them. Im sure everyone involved feels
sheepish about me stirring up bad memories.
Ill spare them the details. Sufce to say, it
was a memorable albeit ugly moment.
Most Amazing Feat: CSM softball win-
ning streak. Despite seeing their season fall
short of the state title, the Bulldogs put togeth-
er one of the best regular seasons in history.
CSM won its rst nine games to start the sea-
son and closed with 20 straight wins losing
its regular-season nale to snap the run.
Considering there were 11 freshmen on this
years team, the 2013 season bodes to be
strong as well.

A reverse mortgage can be an effective tool for
giving homeowners (62+) additional cash to live on
by using the equity in their home. However, it is
not a decision to be taken lightly.
Its important to work with an
experienced originator who can
help you assess your individual
situation to determine if a reverse
mortgage is right for you.
A reverse mortgage is a unique loan that
enables homeowners (62+) to borrow against their
equity without requiring them to give up title, sell
the home, or take on a monthly mortgage payment.
Proceeds can be taken either through a line of
credit, lump sum, or monthly installments.
There are no income requirements or credit
qualications on a reverse mortgage. However,
the homeowner must maintain the property as their
primary residence and remain current on property
taxes and insurance.
The Home Equity Conversion Mortgage
(HECM) provides the most money, but there is
a newer Saver HECM with signicantly lower
closing costs. Like the original HECM the Saver
HECMhas a xed and adjustable
interest rate program.

accomplished the feat in nine consecutive
games from July 1-10, 1988, according to
STATS LLC.
In this series, Madison Bumgarner, Matt
Cain and Barry Zito had won before
Vogelsongs impressive performance on a rare
wraparound getaway game on a Monday.
You dont want to be the weak link,
Vogelsong said. Three games like that, I
dont want to be the guy who doesnt come
through. Its a tough act to follow those three
guys, those three outings.
Brandon Crawford hit an RBI double and
drove in another run on a elders choice to
back Vogelsong (4-2), helping the Giants to
their season-best fourth straight victory.
San Francisco (31-24) moved a season-high
seven games over .500. The Giants began the
day trailing NL West-leading Los Angeles by
three games. The Dodgers had a night game at
Philadelphia.
Cubs reliever Carlos Marmol (0-2) was hit
with a line drive on Angel Pagans ineld sin-
gle in the seventh but stayed in the game after
being checked out, then walked Brandon Belt
on four pitches to load the bases for Arias.
Pagan singled in the fth for a 28-game
home hitting streak, the longest in franchise
history since 1900. He tipped his batting hel-
met and clapped his hands at rst base in
appreciation following a warm ovation from
the sellout crowd of 41,524 on a day that
began with sporadic rain in the early innings
after the tarp came off late morning.
The Giants completed the clubs rst sweep
of the season in its fth try the games
decided by ve total runs. San Francisco
pulled off its first four-game sweep of
Chicago since June 17-20, 1999, at
Candlestick Park.
Pitching was just outstanding, Giants
manager Bruce Bochy said. We scratched
and clawed for the runs we got. These games
could have gone either way.
Cubs starter Jeff Samardzija matched his
season high with ve walks while striking out
six in ve innings. The right-hander allowed
seven hits and two runs but has only one win
in his last ve outings.

GIANTS Sandoval case still in investigation stages
By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO The Santa Cruz
County sheriffs ofce said Monday it hopes
to complete the bulk of an investigation into
sexual assault allegations involving San
Francisco Giants slugger
Pablo Sandoval by the end
of this week, then deter-
mine whether to seek
charges.
Deputy Sheriff April
Skalland said detectives
are interviewing witnesses
and gathering evidence
this week, though analysis
of some forensic evidence
could take longer than a
week. Skalland said the accuser is a 21-year-
old woman who lives in Santa Cruz County.
The woman led a sexual assault complaint
around 4:25 a.m. Pacic Friday, Skalland said.
A statement from the sheriffs ofce Monday
said the woman met a small group of people in
downtown Santa Cruz on Thursday night and
then went to a resort in nearby Aptos, where
the alleged incident happened. Sandoval was
contacted at the resort by detectives and coop-
erated in the investigation, authorities said.
Pablo and his attorney remain coopera-
tive, Skalland said in a phone interview
Monday. Detectives are still interviewing
people and the investigation is ongoing. They
are collecting evidence and most of the inves-
tigation should be wrapped up this week.
The 25-year-old Sandoval and lawyer Eric
Geffon met with authorities Friday. Geffon
called the sexual encounter consensual.
Sandoval was scheduled to play third base
Monday in a rehab game for Class-A San Jose
at Stockton as he works back from May 4 sur-
gery to remove a broken hamate bone in his
left hand. If all went well, manager Bruce
Bochy said he would then join the Triple-A
Fresno club to continue his rehab assignment.
While Sandoval could rejoin the Giants this
weekend for interleague play against two-time
reigning AL champion Texas, Bochy said it
could make more sense to wait until June 12
in the series opener against Houston following
an off day.
Sandoval, a rst-time All-Star last season, is
batting .316 with ve home runs and 15 RBIs
this year.
Bochy said Monday he met only briey
with Sandoval on Saturday morning before
the switch-hitting slugger left for Stockton.
Giants management is clearly concerned with
not only Sandovals conditioning but his off-
the-eld behavior. Sandoval lost about 40
pounds before the 2011 season but again is
struggling to keep the weight off.
We need to get him in shape to play third,
Bochy said before the nale of a four-game
series with the Chicago Cubs. Hopefully
were not forced to make a change. Thats in
Pablos hands. Before he comes up here, its
not just the hitting, its how he plays third
base.

Raiders FB Reece signs deal
ALAMEDA Oakland Raiders fullback
Marcel Reece has signed his exclusive rights
tender with the team.
The Raiders say Reece signed the contract
on Monday in time to participate in organized
team activities.
Reece had not been part of offseason work-
outs with the team under new coach Dennis
Allens staff before signing the one-year deal.
Reece has played in 30 career games with
16 starts since joining the Raiders as an
undrafted free agent in 2008. He has 54 career
receptions for 654 yards and ve touchdowns,
and 47 carries for 234 yards and one score.
As call up Doolittle, DL Norberto
OAKLAND The Oakland Athletics have
called up left-hander Sean Doolittle from
Triple-A Sacramento to cap a rapid rise less
than a year after making a switch to pitcher.
Doolittle replaces Jordan Norberto, who
was placed on the 15-day disabled list
Monday with a strained left shoulder.
As crush the Rangers
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OAKLAND Rookie Jarrod Parker held
Texas hitless until the eighth inning and
Brandon Inge drove in four runs in Oaklands
eight-run second inning as the Athletics beat
the Rangers 12-1 on Monday night.
Parker (2-2) easily worked his way through
baseballs highest-scoring offense in his ninth
career start before Michael Young grounded a
single through the middle for Texas rst hit
leading off the eighth.
Parker got a warm ovation from the crowd
of 10,120 and then recovered to get out of the
inning on two more pitches a popup by
Nelson Cruz and an inning-ending double play
from David Murphy. That ended the night for
Parker, who allowed one hit, walked three and
struck out six.
Inge started the scoring in the big inning
with a three-run homer off Scott Feldman (0-
4) and capped it with an RBI single as the As
normally meek bats broke through with a big
night. Kila Kaaihue added a two-run homer
for the As, who had lost 10 of 11.
Feldman was charged with all eight runs in
the second inning and lost his fourth straight
start.
Things got so bad for the Rangers in their
fth loss in six games that they brought in out-
elder Craig Gentry to pitch the eighth, the
rst position player to take the mound for
Texas since Scott Sheldon on Sept. 6, 2000.
Gentry allowed a two-run double to Yoenis
Cespedes to give the As a season-high with 12
runs. Oakland had been shut out in seven of its
previous 18 games and had just 12 runs during
a recent nine-game skid.
Parker did not make the As rotation out of
spring training after being acquired in an off-
season trade from Arizona for All-Star Trevor
Cahill. He has been sharp ever since being
called up from the minors allowing two runs
or fewer in seven of his eight starts for a 2.40
ERA.
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN ANTONIO Kevin Durant scored 27
points and the Oklahoma City Thunder are on the
brink of the NBA Finals, beating the San Antonio
Spurs 108-103 in Game 5 on Monday night and
moving within a victory of a series knockout.
Russell Westbrook added 23 and the Thunder
took a 3-2 lead in a wildly entertaining Western
Conference nals. Looking invincible while car-
rying 20-win streak a week ago, the Spurs have
lost three straight and are on the verge of a stun-
ning collapse.
Manu Ginobili scored 34 in a smashing return
to the starting lineup. But trailing 106-103 and
the Spurs down to their last shot, Ginobili missed
an off-balance 3-pointer in the nal seconds.
Game 6 is Wednesday night in Oklahoma City,
where the Thunder can punch their ticket to the
NBA Finals in the place they havent lost all post-
season.
Theyre bringing home just what they needed:
the must-win on the road if theyre going to pull
this series out.
Oklahoma City pulled it off behind their stars.
James Harden scored 20, joining Durant and
Westbrook as the only Thunder players in double
gures.
Harden hit the biggest shot, draining a 3-point-
er with 28.8 seconds left that pushed Oklahoma
Citys lead to ve. He admitted afterward that the
ball was supposed to go to Durant but had no
choice but to let go with the shot clock winding
down and Spurs rookie Kawhi Leonard in his
face.
The shot clock was running down and I had to
make a play, Harden said. Leonard was playing
great defense on me. I just shot it with con-
dence. West Conference nals thats a big
shot.
Tony Parker had 20 points and Tim Duncan had
18 points and 12 rebounds for the Spurs.
After remaining unbeaten for 50 days before
arriving in Oklahoma City, San Antonio has lost
three games in ve day. They now must win two
straight to avoid seeing their last best chance to
win in a title in the Duncan era end.
Championship teams win on the road, Spurs
coach Gregg Popovich said. Oklahoma City just
did that.
Its the rst time the Spurs have lost three in a
row all season.

CHICAGO New research
shows a sharp escalation in the
weapons race against cancer, with
several high-tech approaches long
dreamed of but not possible or suc-
cessful until now.
At a weekend conference of more
than 30,000 cancer specialists, sci-
entists reported:
New smart drugs that deliver
powerful poisons directly to cancer
cells while leaving healthy ones
alone.
A new tool that helps the
immune system attack a broad
range of cancer types.
Treatments aimed at new genes
and cancer pathways, plus better
tests to predict which patients will
benet from them.
I see major advances being made
in big diseases such as breast and
prostate cancers, said Dr. Richard
Pazdur, cancer drug chief at the fed-
eral Food and Drug Administration,
which on Wednesday announced a
new policy intended to speed breast
cancer drugs to the market.
The field continues to move
toward more precise treatments
with fewer side effects and away
from old-style chemotherapy that
was like dropping a bomb on the
body, he said.
In fact, an emerging class of
smart bombs was one of the most
hopeful developments reported at
the meeting of the American
Society of Clinical Oncology.
These are two-punch weapons
that combine substances called anti-
bodies, which bond with specic
cancer cells, and toxins that are too
potent to be given by themselves. A
chemical link holds them together
until they attach to a tumor cell,
releasing the poison inside it and
killing the cell.
This is a classic example of the
magic bullet concept rst proposed
more than 100 years ago but only
now possible with advances in tech-
nology, said Dr. Louis Weiner,
director of Georgetown Lombardi
Comprehensive Cancer Center.
The antibody basically targets
this very toxic drug right to the can-
cer cell and places it inside the can-
cer cell where the drug can do its
damage without harming healthy
cells nearby, he said.
On Sunday, a large study showed
that one such drug Genentechs
T-DM1 delayed the time until
cancer got worse in women with
very advanced breast cancer. The
drug also seems to be improving

GOP playing offense in
medical device tax fight
By Alan Fram
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON For Republicans, its an irresistible tri-
fecta: A bill that gives them an election-season chance to say
theyre ghting to protect jobs and cut taxes, even as it erodes
nancing for President Barack Obamas health care overhaul
they despise.
So though it is destined to die in the Democratic-run Senate,
GOP leaders plan to push legislation through the House this
week to repeal an excise tax on the makers of medical devices
sold in the U.S. The tax, which takes effect next January,
applies to everything from replacement joints to imaging
equipment but exempts consumer products like eyeglasses and
bandages.
Democrats say the growing medical device industry can
afford the 2.3 percent tax. They describe the tax as part of the
price device manufacturers and other providers agreed to pay
in exchange for the tens of millions of new customers they will
get through the sweeping 2010 health care laws expansion of
health insurance coverage.
Thats not the view of Republicans or the medical device
industry, which has lobbied Congress heavily to kill the tax
before it takes hold. GOP lawmakers have named their legisla-
tion the Protect Medical Innovation Act, and insist it is not
aimed at dismantling Obamas health care law.
Thats not part of my agenda, said chief sponsor Rep. Erik
Paulsen, R-Minn., whose state is one of the centers of the
nations $130 billion-a-year medical device industry. He said

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO A hormone-blocking
pill approved last year for some men
with advanced prostate cancer now also
seems to help a wider group of men who
were given it sooner in the course of
treating their disease.
In a study of nearly 1,100 such men,
Johnson & Johnsons Zytiga doubled the
time patients lived without their cancer
getting worse.
The drug also seems to be improving
survival, but it will take longer follow-up
to know for sure. Independent monitors
stopped the study once it was clear the
drug was helping and let men who had
been getting dummy pills to switch to
Zytiga. At that point after a median
treatment time of two years 34 per-
cent of men on dummy pills had died
versus 27 percent of those taking Zytiga.
Our hope is that this can become a
new option for up to 30,000 men each
year in the United States, said study
leader Dr. Charles Ryan of the
University of California, San Francisco.
He gave results Saturday at a meeting
in Chicago of the American Society of
Clinical Oncology.
Prostate cancer is the most common
cancer in American men. In the United
States alone, more than 240,000 new
cases and 28,000 deaths from the disease
are expected this year. Many cases dont
need treatment because the cancer grows
so slowly it isnt a threat. For men who
choose treatment when the disease is
still conned to the prostate, surgery and
radiation are common options.
Once it spreads, though, it often is
treated with drugs that curb testosterone.
They block about 90 percent of the hor-
mone, but that remaining 10 percent
can still stimulate the cancer and cause
death from the disease, Ryan said.
Zytiga blocks virtually all of it its
really complete chemical castration,
said another study leader, Duke
Universitys Dr. Daniel George.
The drug won federal approval last
year for men with advanced prostate
cancer whose disease had worsened
despite treatment with standard hor-
mones and chemotherapy. The new
study tested it earlier in the course of ill-
ness in men with advanced prostate
cancer who have not yet received
chemotherapy.
Researchers gave more than 1,000
patients in the U.S., Canada, Europe and
Australia either Zytiga or dummy pills
plus a steroid that also is widely used to
treat such cases.

median time until cancer worsened in

survival, although it will take more time to
know for sure. So far, women on the new treat-
ment were living more than a year longer than
a comparison group of women who were
given two other drugs.
Dozens of similar smart bomb drugs are
in development. On Monday, Pzer Inc. plans
to report on one it is testing for certain types
of lymphoma and leukemia. Only one such
drug is on the market now Adcetris, sold by
Seattle Genetics Inc. for some less common
types of lymphoma.
The other big news at the conference
involved a very different approach: using the
immune system to ght cancer. For more than
a century, doctors have been trying to harness
its power, but tumor cells have cloaking mech-
anisms that have kept the immune system
from recognizing them as enemy and going
on the attack.
Bristol-Myers Squibb Co. has developed
two drugs one aimed at cancer cells and the
other at key soldier cells of the immune sys-
tem to remove one of these invisibility
cloaks. Two studies involving nearly 500 peo-
ple found some tumor shrinkage in up to one
quarter of patients with lung and kidney can-
cers as well as the deadly skin cancer,
melanoma. The treatments had less impact
against colon and prostate cancer.
These are only early results not survival
comparisons or denitive tests, doctors warn.
More testing is needed to even establish safe-
ty. In one study, three patients died of a lung
inammation considered due to the treatment.
However, ordinary chemotherapy can prove
fatal, too, said one study leader, Dr. Julie
Brahmer of Johns Hopkins University.
There were a few patients who had a com-
plete remission from the immune system
treatments and most patients suffered few side
effects, she said. Its great to see patients
feeling well. They dont have hair loss, they
dont have a drop in blood counts and are not
as prone to infections.
Dr. Roy Herbst, medical oncology chief at
Yale Cancer Center in New Haven, Conn., was
hopeful.
Continued from page 17
CANCER
the group getting dummy pills was about eight
months. Those on Zytiga were faring much
better, so doctors can only estimate the time it
is taking for their cancers to worsen at least
16 months, Ryan said.
There were more cases of high blood pres-
sure, fluid retention and heart problems
among men on Zytiga. Like other hormone-
blockers, it can cause hot flashes and sexual
problems. And Zytiga is expensive
$5,500 a month in the United States.
The study was sponsored by the drugs
maker, Johnson & Johnsons Janssen division,
and some study leaders have nancial ties to
the company. The company plans to seek
approval later this year to sell the drug for men
like those in the new study.
Michael Wells, 65, a retired construction
worker from Oakville in Californias Napa
Valley, was diagnosed nearly 12 years ago
with prostate cancer that had spread to his
bones. Standard hormone and radiation treat-
ments kept it in check for many years, but
when it started growing, he enrolled in the
study.
Continued from page 18
PROSTATE
the tax would eat up dollars that otherwise
might go toward research and development
and jobs.
Repealing the tax would cost the government
an estimated $29 billion over the coming
decade a small fraction of the health care
laws cost.
Republicans would pay for repeal by making
it easier for the government to recover overpay-
ments of federal insurance subsidies that lower-
earning people may receive under the health
care overhaul. In hopes of broadening the bills
appeal, provisions are also being added that
would let people recover up to $500 if they
dont use all the money in their health exible
spending accounts, and easing restrictions
against using some tax-favored health accounts
to buy over-the-counter drugs.
The House vote will occur as the Supreme
Court prepares to rule later this month on the
constitutionality of the health care law.
Democrats also hope to play some offense in
the House debate.
Rep. Sander Levin, D-Mich., said he will
argue that Republicans are trying to unravel the
health care overhaul instead of working on leg-
islation to strengthen the economy, such as tax
incentives proposed by Obama.
Republicans think taking no action on the
economy helps defeat the president in
Novembers election, Levin said. They think
its good politics, but its irresponsible.
For good measure, Democrats say the meas-
ure has no chance in the Senate.
Of course were not going to bring it up,
said Adam Jentleson, spokesman for Senate
Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., citing
Democrats desire to defend the health care law.
But the dividing line is not completely parti-
san. Eleven of Paulsens 238 co-sponsors are
Democrats from medical technology centers
like Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and Utah.
Minnesotas two Democratic senators, Al
Franken and Amy Klobuchar, say they favor
eliminating the tax as has Democrat Elizabeth
Warren, who is challenging GOP Sen. Scott
Brown in Massachusetts.
Brown and Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, have
introduced similar bills.
U.S. medical device makers employ more
than 400,000 people. The industrys largest
trade group, AdvaMed, cites a study it commis-
sioned that concluded the new tax could cost
43,000 of those jobs about 10 percent
while doubling companies tax bills and
encouraging them to move plants overseas. The
ndings are often quoted by Republicans.
Critics say the study is biased and ignores the
extra customers the industry will get as the
health care law phases in. They also say the law
wont force companies to move jobs overseas
since it applies to all U.S. sales, no matter
where the product is made.
It doesnt make any sense, Robert Town,
professor of health care management at the
University of Pennsylvanias Wharton School,
said of such claims. He and other analysts said
they believe the overall industry impact of the
tax would be modest.
Though the industry is dominated by huge
companies like Medtronic of Minneapolis and
Boston Scientic of Natick, Mass., AdvaMed
says most of its 300 members have 30 or fewer
workers. The Medical Device Manufacturers
Association, representing many small and
medium-size companies, cites similar gures.
Industry ofcials say young companies could
be especially hurt because the tax is levied on
total sales, not prots. If a business sells $100
million worth of products and a $4 million
prot, the $2.3 million it would owe would
erode more than half its earnings excluding
federal and state corporate taxes.
Its going to cost jobs in our industry, said
AdvaMed lobbyist J.C. Scott. For companies
breaking even, he said, the tax can push them
to a place where they just cant move their busi-
ness forward.
Company executives said their industry was
too competitive to pass their added costs to cus-
tomers. Town and other analysts said they
believed that eventually, as with most excise
taxes, those costs would be built into manufac-
turers prices.
Kem Hawkins, president of stent maker
Cook Medical of Bloomington, Ind., said a 2.3
percent tax would cost his company around $20
million, erasing 15 percent of earnings.
Combined with federal and state taxes, he
said hed be paying a tax rate of 58 percent.
Opening a new plant employing 300 workers
can cost $13 million, he said.
Its the tipping point, he said of the excise
tax. While he said he would protect the compa-
nys 7,500 U.S. jobs, he added, Our new man-
ufacturing is going abroad, make no mistake
about it.
Gregory Sorensen, CEO of Siemens
Healthcare North America, a giant maker of
scanning devices, said the tax would force him
to consider savings from reduced investments
or U.S. jobs.

for the site.
The council sided with building
affordable housing for families on the
site and to stick with a traditional RFP
process for the design of the project but
not before some councilmembers
expressed dismay with a school being
proposed for the site at all.
Ofce space or a hotel was sought for
the site before Nueva submitted plans to
build on the about 3-acre plot, within
walking distance of the Hillsdale
Caltrain station.
I have severe reservations with the
Nueva plan, Mayor Brandt Grotte said
last night. A school use on the site will
generate little revenue for the city, he
said.
Councilman Jack Matthews also
questioned Nuevas plan to build on the
lot.
Im not terribly thrilled about Nueva
School at all, Matthews said. He said it
was not a transit-oriented development
and questioned whether students at the
school would actually take Caltrain.
Bay Meadows ownership will dedi-
cate the land to the city as part of a
development agreement and has already
committed to set aside 10 percent of the
total units as below-market rate. More
than 1,100 housing units will be built at
the old horse race track, with a mix of
retail and ofce uses. Up to 15 percent
of all the units proposed to be construct-
ed on the site will be affordable with the
addition of the 1-acre site, according to
a city staff report.
The Nueva School, located in
Hillsborough, wants to build a high
school campus on one of four big
mixed-use blocks on the site on about
2.75 acres. The citys 1-acre site will sit
next to the new school between the San
Mateo County Event Center on a narrow
strip of land on Delaware Street.
Many of the citys current BMR rental
units for families are at risk of being lost
at Bridgepointe, the Metropolitan and
the Archstone property at Bay Meadows
as the owners consider selling the prop-
erties. If they are converted to owner-
ship units, they would retain affordabil-
ity for moderate-income families
instead of the existing very low and low
households, said Sandra Council, acting
neighborhood improvement and hous-
ing manager for the city.
Currently, San Mateo has 1,195
affordable housing units that are occu-
pied by senior citizens, families and
those with special housing needs,
including both rental and ownership
units.
City staff has determined that there is
a gap for affordable units for families
compared to seniors and other cate-
gories.
There are more than 1,000 households
who currently live or work in San Mateo
on the wait list for rental units as well as
another 250 households on the list for
ownership BMR units, according to the
staff report.
A U.S. Census Bureau study shows
that 34 percent of all San Mateo resi-
dents who rent pay more than 35 per-
cent of their income on housing, which
is considered overpaying by housing
professionals, according to the staff
report.
The Nueva School has submitted a
preliminary planning application and is
moving quickly to nalize approvals in
the next few months with the goal of
completing construction in time for an
opening for the school year beginning
fall of 2014, according to the staff
report.
The advantages of directly hiring a
consultant to design the affordable
housing on the 1-acre site in conjunc-
tion with the Nueva project are the abil-
ity to sort out any site compatibility
issues, nding opportunities for shared
use and the Planning Commission can
review the entire project, both school
and housing, at one time, according to
the staff report.
The city proposes to build anywhere
from 60 to 68 units of affordable hous-
ing on the 1-acre site depending on how
it pursues parking.
Rents have climbed in San Mateo
County by 25 percent in the past two
years and the city wants to build more
affordable rental units for families.

HOUSING
three years after breaking ground, the
facility is estimated to handle 1.2 million
passengers annually with plans to possi-
bly grow in the future.
This is a steel and concrete testament
to the dreams of generations, U.S. Rep.
Jackie Speier, D-San Mateo/San
Francisco, said to a packed house
Monday morning.
Political ofcials, local business repre-
sentatives and South City residents
joined together yesterday to celebrate
the opening.
The new service will carry peak-hour
commuters from ferry terminals in
Oakland and Alameda to Oyster Point
Ferry Terminal in about 40 to 50 min-
utes. At its start, there will be three
morning rush hour departures from the
East Bay and two return trips from
Oyster Point in the evening, according to
the San Francisco Bay Area Water
Emergency Transportation Authority.
The number of weekday trips will be
revisited depending on the popularity of
the new service.
Mayor Rich Garbarino was excited
that South San Francisco has the distinc-
tion of offering one more transportation
alternative to those in the area.
Councilman Kevin Mullin, who spoke
on behalf of the Metropolitan
Transportation Commission, pointed to
voter-approved measures that raised the
money to fund the building of the termi-
nal.
Funding was secured from multiple
locations including regional Measure 2
from a $1 bridge toll increase, San
Mateo County Measure A revenue from
sales tax and state Proposition 1B money
for service.
The project was nancially on hold for
some time but restarted when the nal
$3 million grant was secured from the
U.S. Department of Transportation.
Speier made the announcement in
September 2009 noting securing it was a
joint effort with Speaker of the House
Nancy Pelosi and U.S. Rep. Barbara
Lee, D-Oakland, which piggybacked on
efforts of the late congressman Tom
Lantos who secured nearly $10 million
for the construction of vessels and the
terminal.
Vice Mayor Pedro Gonzalez, who has
long advocated for the service, was the
last to speak.
Jackie Gleason used to say, How
sweet it is, he said with a smile.
Gonzalez recounted the years this
project was handled by those in leader-
ship before him. Then, once passed to
him, the wait continued over a number
of years before ferry service to San
Mateo County could become a reality.
The years it has taken were denitely
well spent, he said.
Gonzalez described the opening as a
dream come true. Opening a terminal
will give employees an alternative to
driving to South San Francisco, easing
road congestion while also lessening the
citys carbon footprint, he said.
The SF Bay Ferry in South San
Francisco at Oyster Point Marina offers
stops at Alameda and Oakland. Round-
trip service will be available Monday
through Friday with three morning
departures to South San Francisco and
two evening departures to Oakland and
Alameda. Travel time takes 40 to 50
minutes. Fare is $7 per person and $3.50
for children and seniors.
The South City location offers free
shuttle service to 19 employers in the
area, free parking, 12 bike lockers, room
for more than 30 bikes on board, free
wireless Internet on board and a snack
and beverage bar on board.

outgoing chief Dan Bellville, I know
that Mike is more than able to step into
his shoes and lead us through the transi-
tion, Bronitsky wrote.
The cities not only share the re chief
but also share a deputy re chief and bat-
talion chief. An agreement between the
two cities can also be amended to allow
for more shared positions including two
battalion chiefs, re prevention staff and
other administrative staff as recom-
mended by the re chief in the future.
Those who have worked with Mike
during his tenure have come to know his
integrity, dedication to public service
and his ability to develop and maintain
good relationships, Loftus wrote in a
prepared statement.
Both councils have conceptually
approved a 36-month plan that phases in
shared re department positions over the
next three years.
Eventually, the two departments may
ultimately merge into a single agency to
serve both cities as it has been an item of
discussion for some time.
It cant be far behind, said Foster
City Vice Mayor Pam Frisella.
Frisella is supportive of the two
departments merging one day.
Belville has been working on bringing
the two departments together for the past
two years and Keefe has been his shad-
ow for some time, Frisella said.
She called Keefe deserving and
qualied for the job.
Keefe joined the San Mateo Fire
Department in 1986 as a reghter/engi-
neer. In 1994, he was promoted to cap-
tain and in 2008 was promoted to battal-
ion chief.
In 2011, he was appointed to serve as
the deputy re chief for the joint depart-
ment under Belville. During his tenure
as deputy chief, he has managed the day-
to-day operations of the Foster City Fire
Department.
Next week, much of the joint depart-
ments administrative offices will be
relocated to Foster City.
The shared services agreement is on
pace to save the cities about $1.5 million
well before the 36-month conceptual
plan ends, Belville said.
Keefe will start looking beyond that
36-month window to see what the next
phase of shared services will look like.
Keefe holds a bachelors degree in
business administration from Saint
Marys College as well as an associates
degree in re science from the College
of San Mateo.
Keefe has been involved in the Alisa
Ann Ruch Burn Foundation, having
served as president of the San Francisco
Chapter from 1987 to 1994. He has also
served as a statewide executive board
member for the foundation, developing
policy, implementing new chapters,
fundraising and conducting public edu-
cation.
Keefe said he looks forward to carry-
ing on the strong legacy of communi-
ty service, commitment, professionalism
and integrity that Belville and those
before him have instilled in both organi-
zations.
John Healy will be the joint depart-
ments deputy re chief.
Keefe is married, has two children and
lives during the week in San Carlos.
His salary will be $15,147 a month,
according to the San Mateo City
Managers ofce.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- By serving as a middle-
man and bringing two divergent factions together,
youll yield proftable results as well. Chances are it
will be a special niche that only you can fll.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Strive to use your mind
logically, but by the same token, dont totally detach
from your intuitive faculties as well. If you employ
both, youll have a highly successful day.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Instead of worrying about
things that will never happen, focus your mental
faculties on achieving positive results. If you apply
yourself, things will come easily to you.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Something youve been
anxious to complete isnt likely to be as diffcult to
achieve as you think. The intervention of an accom-
plished ally will be a great catalyst.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Plans to which youve
given considerable time should not be subjected to
alterations at the last minute. Your blueprint is a good
one; it will pan out quite well.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Something over which
you have only nominal control could be subject to a
number of unexpected changes. It might shake you
up at frst, but the turbulence will ultimately turn out
to be constructive.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- For the frst time
youll see that youre fnally making some headway in
a relationship that youve been hell-bent on improv-
ing. It proves there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Recipients will
appreciate your cooperative spirit. And because you
show such a concern for them, they in turn will help
you accomplish something that requires teamwork.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Since youre excep-
tionally good at fnalizing things to your satisfaction,
it behooves you to focus on more signifcant priorities
and make sure they come to fruition.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- A pleasant surprise
is likely to be in store if you make an effort to get to
know a friendly acquaintance a little better.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- An opportunity to learn
something that will be of great value in the long term
will present itself. When you hear opportunity knock-
ing, dont just stand there -- get the door.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- More than a few unex-
pected rewards are likely to be yours because of the
considerate way you treat people. If they can fnd a
way to express their gratitude materially, they will.
