Man shot dead reform for
Police return fire on San Mateo resident initiatives
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A 35-year-old man with a history of mental
illness fired at police from close range yester-
day morning from in front
of his Oak Street home
before the officers
returned fire, killing the
man.
Robert Caron was pro-
nounced dead at the scene,
said San Mateo Police
Chief Susan Manheimer.
Caron had an extensive
Susan history of making threats
Manheimer to police and for possess-
ing weapons, although Manheimer did not
indicate whether Caron had been previously
arrested. She also did not deny Caron’s moth-
er’s assertion that he suffered from schizo-
phrenia.
Jack Horgan, 90, who lives next door to
Caron, described the man as someone with
“mental problems” but no apparent disability
that would impair him from performing nor-
mal activities.
Before police engaged Caron at his home,
his day started at the Borel Shopping Center
on El Camino Real and Bovet Avenue.

The big business of placing initiatives on
the ballot has caught the attention of a state
lawmaker who wants to reform the voter-driv-
en process to make it more
transparent.
Assemblyman Rich
Gordon, D-Menlo Park,
wants to change the ballot
initiative process by
requiring paid signature
gatherers to identify them-
selves as such and to pro-
Rich Gordon vide details to the public
on how the initiatives will
be funded.
Voter-driven initiatives typically require
more than 1 million signatures to be placed on
the statewide ballot and paid signature gather-
ers play a big part in reaching that goal.
The process is more suited to the wealthy,
Gordon said.
“Basically, if you have enough money, you
can buy your way onto the ballot,” Gordon
said.
Assembly Bill 481 would require paid sig-
nature gatherers to wear a badge identifying
themselves as such.
“If I’m approached outside a grocery store
by someone asking me to sign something, I’d
like to know whether the person is a volunteer
who really believes in the issue or someone
who is being paid who does not care about the
issue at all,” Gordon said.
He also wants greater transparency in the
fiscal analysis of ballot initiatives. AB 1021
would require initiatives to identify a funding
source or ballot reduction, and if not, to
include an advisory that there will need to be
reductions, eliminations or additional revenue
to implement the measure.
“If you put something on the ballot that ini-
tiates a new level of government activity, you
need to tell us how we pay for it,” Gordon
said.

differently to plug the state’s budget deficit.
At a recent strategic retreat, however, the
council changed its mind and its approach.
Although the state’s legislative analyst has
called the RDA raid “problematic,” the push
is now to “keep local decisions local,” said
San Carlos Mayor Omar Ahmad.
On Monday night, the council approved a

Cookie sales barred at
Girl Scouts founder’s home
SAVANNAH, Ga. — Girl Scouts are
no longer able to sell their famous cook-
ies outside the historic Savannah home
of the woman who founded the organiza-
tion almost a century ago.
A complaint last year ended the long-
time practice of selling the cookies on
the public sidewalk outside the home of
Juliette Gordon Low at the busy intersec-
tion of Bull Street and Oglethorpe
Avenue. Peddling on a public sidewalk is
a violation of city ordinance. One city
alderman said he thinks the city should
consider a temporary exception for cook-
ie season.
The city’s zoning administrator,
Randolph Scott, said he investigated the
matter and tried to find a solution. He
said he called for a survey, hoping there
would be some private space between the
home and the sidewalk. He said there
wasn’t any.
Scott said they also looked at allowing
the Scouts to sell from a small courtyard
City Alderman Van Johnson said he
thinks the city council should consider a
variance to allow temporary sales during
cookie season, which usually happens in
the first few months of the year.
“Juliette Low brings thousands of
tourists from around the country. Juliette
Low is known for Girl Scouts, and Girl
Scouts are known for cookies,” Johnson
said. “Let’s be reasonable. Let them sell
their cookies.”
Scouts have since started selling near
some other high-traffic intersections.
Girls used to be able to sell about 250
boxes in three hours outside the Low
home, said Jan McKinney, who heads
product sales for the Girl Scouts of
Historic Georgia.
But she says it’s important that the
girls learn the larger lesson of the
change. She says the cookie sales are
intended to teach the girls money man-
agement, public speaking, customer
service and business ethics.
“We try to teach them that in business
you have to adjust to things that happen,
adapt to the market and follow the law,”
she said. “It’s a real-world experience.”

Andre needs your vote,today please
Burlingame high school senior vying for scholarship
By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Andre Clemente fell in love with cars as a
little boy playing video games.
The ability to go faster, often made possi-
ble by modifications, fascinated the now 18-
year-old Burlingame High School senior.
“I couldn’t really go talk to my parents,”
he said, noting neither were car enthusiasts.
Instead, Clemente began talking to those in
the automotive industry in Burlingame. He
asked questions; got people to hire him for
small jobs or simply allow him help,
unpaid, for the chance to learn.
Learning was a welcome payment for
Clemente who is hoping to follow his dream
by attending Universal Technical Institute, a
nationwide provider of technical education
training for students seeking careers as pro-
fessional automotive and marine techni-
cians.
He’s one of six potential students vying
for a $25,000 scholarship which will be
awarded to the student whose video gets the
highest number of votes. Smaller scholar-
ships — $10,000 for second place and
$5,000 for third — are also available. As of
Monday afternoon, Clemente’s vote count
had him in fourth place.
Votes can only be cast through Friday,
creating a push from Clemente who is try-
ing to drum up support from his community
to make his dream come true.

Mary Kathleen McGee, 67 of Auburn died
Feb. 21 at her home.
She was born Dec. 8, 1943 in Oakland. The
daughter of John and Mary McGee

lings, James, Gerry and John Patrick McGee.
She graduated Carlmont High School class of
1961. She then had a day care in Belmont for
many years before moving to Auburn where
she retired and lived for 30 years.
She is survived by her son and daughter-in-

“If I win, Burlingame
wins,” said Clemente,
who is trying to be the top
vote getter and recognizes
that may require support
outside of his home town.
Clemente has worked
hard to learn about the
craft he loves.
Andre Dick van Arkel, owner
Clemente of Holland Auto Service
in Burlingame, met
Clemente as a customer. Clemente’s interest
in cars was apparent. About two years ago,
Clemente was hired to work as an appren-
tice at the shop.
“He’s a great candidate. He’d be a great
representative for Burlingame,” said van
Arkel, who added Clemente’s enthusiasm
for automotive repair should make him a
stand out.
Aside from offering to help at local auto-
motive shops in exchange for experience,
Clemente has taken automotive tech classes
at Skyline College in San Bruno for more
than a year.

national scholarship campaign included an

“Andre is a hard-working and dedicated

es the advanced placement economics class

well. He is following his passion and I want

Clemente has been working to contact
teachers in the Burlingame Elementary and

ensure as much support as possible.
Clemente, a soccer player since he was 5,

New school — now what?
Burlingame officials weigh options for repurchased Hoover site
By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
What kind of school Hoover
Elementary should be when it reopens in
2014 could be decided by elected
Burlingame officials next week.
Late last year, the Burlingame
Elementary School District purchased the
vacant site of Hoover Elementary School,
at 2220 Summit Drive to deal with grow-
ing enrollment. Since then, the district has
held several community meetings to dis-
cuss what kind of school the campus
should house — a traditional neighbor-
hood school serving children in kinder-
garten through fifth grade, an immersion
language school or a magnet school pro-
gram focusing on a specific medium like
math, science or performing arts. Those
three options will go to the board March 8,
the first chance the board could have to
choose.
“However it’s used, it will be a benefit,”
said board President Mark Intrieri.
Intrieri has asked for a cost analysis of
the three options. He’d like the capital and

Program that helped hone his talent.
general fund costs of setting up of the var-
ious programs.
Traditional was the preferred preference
of other district principals, said Intrieri.
Creating an immersion school could
come in a number of forms, explained
Chief Business Officer Robert Clark. A
Spanish immersion program was started
at McKinley Elementary School in 2008.
That could be moved to Hoover, making
McKinley a traditional school.
Alternatively, a new program focusing on
either Spanish or Mandarin could be cre-
ated at Hoover, he said.
A magnet school has generated support,
but Intrieri expressed interest in creating
special magnet-style programs throughout
the district rather than at one site.
The choice will allow the board to start
planning for the 2014 opening costs.
Hoover was built in the ’30s, closed in
1978 and sold 10 years later. In 1989,
Shinnyo-En Buddhist Facility was grant-
ed a city permit but later moved out of
Burlingame. It will need renovations
before it can be an operating school again.
Paying for the school renovation will
most likely come in the form of a bond.

Yet unanswered is how much the board
will seek on the November ballot, said
Clark.
Results of a 400-person phone survey
completed by Godbe Research in January
showed support for a $27 million bond
measure, which requires 55 percent to
pass. The board indicated it would put
such a measure on the November ballot.
Voters approved Measure A, a $48.3
million bond measure, in 2007. Before
going to the voters with Measure A, the
district created a needs list which, if com-
pleted, would cost an estimated $90 mil-
lion. Purchasing the now-vacant Hoover
Elementary School at 2220 Summit Drive
for $4.85 million was one of the larger
purchases from the measure. Adding new
buildings at Lincoln and McKinley ele-
mentary schools were also large-ticket
items to solve enrollment issues not origi-
nally on the project list.
Going for a larger amount could mean
finishing other projects as well, said
Clark.
The board meets 7 p.m. Tuesday, March
8.
Watch local junior high,
high school and college

The event includes tum-

sliding glass door, according to the Sheriff’s Office.
The man who knocked on the victim’s door was wearing a
yellow hard hat, a dark blue jacket or vest with gold lettering
or initials on the left chest area, according to the Sheriff’s

When the victim became suspicious and started asking the
suspect for more identification, he fled, according to the

The victim described the suspect as olive skinned, with a
round face, clean shaven, with “big” brown eyes, heavy set and
about 5 feet 8 inches tall. The suspect left the area in a newer
silver or gray sport-utility type vehicle, according to the

‘Men’crew to be

LOS ANGELES — Warner Bros. Television

TV’s top-rated comedy that were canceled by
producers upset about the
off-screen antics of star
Charlie Sheen.
The troubled star called
the agreement a “start” in

“Clearly my efforts are

Warner Bros. last week canceled the remain-

The troubled actor dominated the entertain-

two riveting morning show interviews and a

By midday, his veteran publicist had quit.

Lawyer: Couple confessed in Dugard kidnap
By Lisa Leff
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PLACERVILLE — A Northern California
couple charged with kidnapping Jaycee
Dugard and holding her captive for 18 years
have given full confessions to authorities, a
defense lawyer said Monday.
The revelation came as prosecutors and
defense lawyers opened negotiations on possi-
ble plea bargains that could avert a trial and
testimony by the victim who has sought priva-
cy since being freed 18 months ago.
Attorney Stephen Tapson, who represents
defendant Nancy Garrido, told reporters out-
side court that he was present when his client
and her husband, Phillip Garrido, were re-
interviewed by El Dorado County detectives
during the past month.
They acknowledged snatching Dugard, then
11, from a South Lake Tahoe street, and
answered dozens of questions from investiga-
tors about the years they spent with her and
her two daughters fathered by Phillip Garrido,
Tapson said.

The case took a turn toward a possible plea
deal earlier this month when a judge declared
Phillip Garrido competent to stand trial.
Criminal proceedings against him had been

Last U.S. veteran of World War I dies at age 110
By Allen G. Breed
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
What was it like?
What was it like in the trenches? What was
it like in all those places whose names have
faded in the dusty recesses of memory,
places like Ypres and Gallipoli, Verdun and
the Marne? What was it like to fight the war
that was supposed to make the world safe for
democracy?
There’s no one left to ask.
The Great War has almost passed from liv-
ing memory. The veterans have slipped away,
one by one, their obituaries marking the end
of the line in country after country: Harry
Patch, Britain’s last survivor of the trenches;
Lazare Ponticelli, the last of the French
“poilu”; Erich Kastner, the last of the
Germans.
And now, Frank Buckles, dead at age 110,
the last U.S. veteran. Missouri boy. Sixteen
years old, he lied about his age to get into the
Army and badgered his superiors until they
sent him to the French front with an ambu-
lance unit, one of 4.7 million Yanks who
answered the call to go “Over There.”
All of them gone. None of them surviving

***
Hunkered in a network of fortifications
gouged out of a low hill outside the Belgian
town of Werwick, the young soldier and his
comrades were shielded from shrapnel as the
artillery bombardment thundered throughout
the evening and into the night. But after four
years of trench warfare, both sides had found
ways to defeat such defenses.
As the rounds thudded into the rich soil of
the famed Flanders Fields south of Ypres, the
Bis(2-chloroethyl) sulfide liquid hidden in
the tips vaporized into the yellowish-brown
cloud that earned this new and terrible
weapon its nickname — “mustard gas.”
Heavier than the air around it, the gas
descended into the trenches and dugouts,
enveloping the men in a foul-smelling mist
that seeped into the gaps around their shod-
dily constructed masks.
By midnight, many of the entrenched sol-
diers were incapacitated as their lungs
burned, their eyes swelled shut and deep
itches beneath their moldy woolen uniforms
erupted into angry red blisters. The 29-year-
old courier didn’t feel the effects until the

following morning, but when the pain finally
arrived, it was excruciating.
“It increased with every quarter of an hour,
and about seven o’clock my eyes were
scorching as I staggered back and delivered
the last dispatch I was destined to carry in
this war,” the young soldier wrote of that bat-
tle in the last days of World War I. “A few
hours later my eyes were like glowing coals,
and all was darkness around me.”
***
It started with the assassination of the
Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand in
Sarajevo in 1914 — a tripwire for cataclysm.
By the time the Americans entered the war
in April 1917, the Europeans had been ham-
mering away at each other for three bloody
years. Much of the French and Belgian coun-
tryside had been turned into a vast “no man’s
land” of barbed-wire entanglements, bound-
ed on either side by serpentine networks of
fortified trenches.
When ambulance driver Stull Holt arrived
at Verdun in the fall of 1917, he discovered a
scene of utter desolation.
“We were in historic ground and it looked
it,” the New York City native wrote home to
family. “All the hills ... have been fought over
many times and the result is that they are in
waves of dirt with one shell hole overlapping
the next; no grass or anything growing; no

can see some black spots where the roots
remain.”
Man had invented an array of new tools for
killing, and it seemed that all of Europe had
become a proving ground.
Barely a decade after the Wright brothers
skimmed over the grass at Kitty Hawk, the
airplane had been perverted from a marvel of
human ingenuity into an instrument of terror.
“It isn’t very soothing for the nerves when
you hear Fritz’s engine going right overhead
and hear him shut off just before dropping
one of his pills,” Lt. Bartlett H.S. Travis, who
trained in Canada and joined the British
Royal Flying Corps, wrote in an August 1918
letter home to New Jersey. “After his first pill
the suspense waiting for the rest of them is
awful.”
Toward the war’s end, the Germans used
airplanes to experiment with a tactic they
would later turn into an art form.
“I am sending to you a little sheet of
German propaganda that has been dropped to
our men on the front line by the Hun aero-
planes,” Sgt. Morris Pigman wrote home
from France in November 1918. “They are
trying to weaken the morale of our men.
What a feeble appeal for us to give ourselves
up to them. Our boys only laugh at it and
gather them up for souvenirs.”

Wisconsin governor to outline
ultimate intentions in budget
MADISON, Wis. — Wisconsin Gov. Scott
Walker’s explosive proposal to take nearly all
collective bargaining
rights away from most

just one piece of his vision
for the state’s future. Now
he’s ready to reveal the
rest.
With the union rights
proposal stuck in a legisla-
tive stalemate thanks to Scott Walker
runaway Senate
Democrats, the Republican governor planned
to forge ahead with the Tuesday release of his
two-year spending plan that will include major
cuts to schools and local governments to help
close a projected $3.6 billion budget shortfall.
Walker says his collective bargaining meas-
ure would free local governments from having
to bargain with public employee unions as they
deal with the cuts he’ll outline Tuesday.
Schools last week started putting teachers on
notice that their contracts may not be renewed
for next year given the budget uncertainty.
Walker has confirmed he will propose cut-
ting education aid by about $900 million, or 9
percent statewide.
“All of this turmoil, all of this chaos, are
examples that Walker’s proposals are too
extreme,” said Mary Bell, president of the

She said more than 2,000 teachers had
received nonrenewal notices as of Monday.

Pro-Gadhafi forces fight rebels
U.S., Europe sanction
Libya; ‘no-fly’ weighed
By Bradley Klapper
and Matthew Lee
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
GENEVA — The U.S. began
moving naval and air forces closer to
Libya and declared on Monday that
all options were open, including the
use of warplanes to patrol the coun-
try’s skies, to protect Libyans threat-
ened by an increasingly isolated and
defiant Moammar Gadhafi. The U.S.
and Europe were freezing billions in
Libya’s foreign assets.
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham
Clinton said the United States was
exploring the idea of a no-fly zone to
prevent Gadhafi’s government from
bombing its citizens, and European
leaders were discussing that as well.
Clinton welcomed fresh sanctions
outlined by Europe to force the dic-
tator to stop attacks on civilians and
step down after 42 years of iron-fist-
ed rule.
After meetings with other nations’
foreign policy chiefs in Switzerland,
Clinton said the U.S. was sending aid
teams to help Libyan refugees. She
sharpened the U.S. demand that
Gadhafi step aside in the face of
armed opposition now in control of
large portions of the North African
oil state.
“Gadhafi has lost the legitimacy to
govern, and it is time for him to go
without further violence or delay,”
she said. “No option is off the table.
WORLD
That of course includes a no-fly
zone,” Clinton added, a reference to
an effort to control the air over Libya.
Gadhafi, in an interview with ABC
News, dismissed the idea of leaving.
The European Union issued travel
bans and an asset freeze against sen-
ior Libyan officials, and ordered an
arms embargo on the country.
Germany went further, proposing a
60-day economic embargo to prevent
Gadhafi from using oil and other rev-
enues to repress his people.
French President Nicolas Sarkozy
and British Prime Minister David
Cameron decided in a phone call
Monday to seek an extraordinary
meeting of the European Council so
that the “EU adopts the needed
measures” regarding Libya situation,
the French president’s office said.
In Washington, the Treasury
Department said that at least $30 bil-
lion in Libyan assets had been frozen
since President Barack Obama
imposed sanctions on the country
last week.
The $30 billion represented the
largest amount ever frozen by a U.S.
sanctions order, said David Cohen,
Treasury’s acting undersecretary for
terrorism and financial intelligence.
He declined to provide details on
how many U.S. financial institutions
held the Libyan assets or how the
money was divided between Gadhafi
and his family and the country’s sov-
ereign wealth fund.

Saltworks projects: Stop
attacking what you don’t know
Editor,
For the past few years, we have been hear-
ing a lot about the Cargill/DMB Saltworks
proposed project. I have made my stand on
this project perfectly clear in front of the City
Council and in the papers. I think it is a good
and solid idea but will reserve judgment until
I see the final product.
I believe that the people of Redwood City
should be able to look at the final proposed
project and then have an open debate on its
merits. I don’t want to see unbridled growth,
nor do I want to become stagnant as a city.
Our needs are changing. We need more
parks and sports fields, more affordable
housing, senior housing and more schools.
We’re not stupid here in Redwood City and
we will not make a rash decision.
I will vote for what best serves the people
of our great city and not strictly the develop-
er or the opposition. The future is local, high-
er density housing near public transit and I
don’t think anyone will deny that.

Israel” in the Feb. 24 edition of The Daily
Journal and cannot escape the vitriol and
hatred seeping out of her letter toward Israel.
Ms. Gray’s concern for the U.S. budget
woes is hypocritical and a feeble attempt to
disguise her singular hatred of Israel. If she
is really concerned about the well-being of
U.S. citizens one would expect her to suggest
the elimination of all U.S. foreign aid, which
approaches $40 billion this year, including
$960 million to Palestine and $2 billion allo-
cated to Egypt and Jordan.
Just to remind readers, most U.S. aid to
Israel is not in the form of cash but “store
coupons” to purchase U.S. equipment and
arms, the continued manufacture of which
provides good paying jobs to U.S. workers.
In addition Israel spends almost triple that
amount in buying U.S. equipment annually.
So in today’s economy with over 9 percent of
unemployment, this aid is a bargain, not a
drain, on our nation’s struggling economy.

Ain’t that
a shame
A
frustrated Tampa mother had some-
thing to get off her chest. So she put
it near the chest of her son.
“I have a GPA of 1.22 ... honk if you think I
need an education,”
in part read the
homemade sign she
made the 15-year-
old boy hoist on a
street corner for
nearly four hours.
The embarrassing
sign undoubtedly
drew honks and
loads of attention.
It also drew calls of
criticism by those
who called the tac-
tic humiliating, ineffective and mentally abu-
sive.
Hogwash.
The woman, Ronda Holder, said the sign
was an act of last resort after being failed by
tutoring offers, homework checks, grounding,
cajoling and even — God forbid! — confis-
cating his cell phone. A sound beating must
have been out of the question.
So she opted for the Scarlet Letter route,
hoping a little public ego flogging would
wake the kid up particularly after a school
meeting at which the boy’s indifference
proved the final straw, according to reports of
the unique punishment.
For her efforts to whip her child into aca-
demic shape, Holder was rewarded with a
report to the Department of Children and
Families.
Really? What would the appalled Good
Samaritan do with a more tenacious and
unapologetic Tiger Mother?
More importantly, what would they suggest
parents like Holder do to redirect their child
onto a path that doesn’t end with illiteracy
and sloth for the kid or a trip to the slammer
for the adult?
If the boy refuses to improve his grades, he
will have to live with the consequences. Proof
of his failure will be apparent if he can’t
secure a meaningful education and employ-
ment; why not spell it out from the get-go?
Holder is not the first person, or entity, to
use public shaming as a motivating tool. The
states of Ohio and Minnesota require drivers
convicted of DUIs to use special license
plates that either have the numbers written in
red or are a completely different color entire-
ly. Washington is next in line, now consider-
ing so-called whiskey plates with the last let-
ter “z.”
Is that any worse or better than the Tampa
sign?
Nearly a decade ago, a San Francisco mail
thief was forced to stand for eight hours out-
side a post office with a sandwich board sign
stating “I stole mail. This is my punishment.”
The judge called it “a wake-up call.”
Sex offenders in Texas have been required
to put signs on their front lawns; shoplifters in
several states have stood outside stores with
signs or shirts explaining the crimes.
A judge in Ohio actually marketed shirts
emblazoned with “I am a thief” that he called
“criminali-tees.” Convicted shoplifters wore
them while performing community service.
One might argue there is a marked differ-
ence between convicted criminals and
teenagers who simply fail to get more than a
“D” average in school. I would argue the lat-
ter might quite well lead to the former — at
least without some intervention by folks like
Holder.
There is something to be said for wearing
one’s heart on a sleeve but there’s a lot more
to be gained for putting a little shame on a
sign. Maybe it won’t fix the boy’s failing
grades, but at least his concerned mother isn’t
content to stand back and passively fail him.

Stocks end higher
By Chip Cutter
and David K. Randall
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Stabilizing oil prices
and more signs of a stronger economy
sent stocks sharply higher Monday. The
Standard and Poor’s 500 index had its
best start of any year since 1998.
Oil prices fell to about $97 a barrel as
worries over the global oil market eased
after reports that some Libyan ports
reopened to oil tankers and Saudi Arabia
was boosting exports. Prices surged
above $100 a barrel last week as clashes
between rebels and government-backed
forces intensified in Libya.
The Commerce Department said con-
sumer incomes rose by the largest
amount in nearly two years in January,
thanks to a tax cut that began last month.
The head of the Federal Reserve Bank of
New York, meanwhile, said that the
country’s economic outlook has
“improved considerably.”
The Dow Jones industrial average
gained 95.89 points, or 0.8 percent, to
close at 12,226.34. The Standard and
Poor’s 500 rose 7.34, or 0.6 percent, to
1,327.22. The Nasdaq composite rose
1.22 points, or less than 0.1 percent, to
2,782.27.
All three major stock indexes posted
their third straight month of gains. The
last time that happened was in the three-
month period that ended last April. The
S&P 500 gained 3.2 percent in February,
the Dow 2.8 percent and the Nasdaq 3
percent. Those figures don’t include div-
idends.
Tax cut boosts incomes
By Martin Crutsinger
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — A tax cut that
began last month gave consumers the
biggest jump in their incomes in nearly
two years. But Americans boosted their
spending only slightly, a sign that
many people are being cautious with
their money even as the economy
improves.
Consumers increased spending 0.2
percent in January, the smallest gain
since June, the Commerce Department
reported Monday. Personal incomes
jumped 1 percent, reflecting the 2 per-
centage point reduction from the Social
Security tax cut.
The small spending gain pushed total
spending last month to an annual rate
of $10.59 trillion, up 7.4 percent from
the recession low hit in December
2008. Some economists said that poor
weather may have played a role in
slowing spending growth last month.
They are counting on spending to
Whitman joins Zipcar’s board
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — Car sharing
service Zipcar Inc. said Monday that it
has added former eBay Inc. CEO and
2010 California gubernatorial candidate
Meg Whitman to its board of directors.
As Zipcar considers going public,
Whitman is the third well-known execu-
tive in recent months to join its board.
Whitman led eBay from 1998 to 2008.
During her tenure, the company grew
from a 30-employee operation with $4
million in annual revenue to one with
15,000 employees and nearly $8 billion
in revenue.
Whitman replaces Zipcar investor and
board member Jim Gerson.
Earlier this month, Whitman re-joined
Wall Street
The S&P index has risen 5.5 percent in
January and February, its fastest increase
at the start of a year since it jumped 8.1
percent in the first two months of 1998,
according to Howard Silverblatt, senior
index analyst at S&P.
A new round of corporate deals also
helped push some stocks higher. Ventas
Inc., which owns senior housing com-
munities, said it would buy Nationwide
Health Properties Inc. in a $5.8 billion
deal that will create the nation’s largest
health care real-estate investment trust.
Nationwide Health rose 10 percent,
while Ventas fell 3 percent.
Australia’s Equinox Minerals Limited,
a mining company, said it would make a
hostile bid to acquire Canada’s Lundin
Mining Corp. for $4.9 billion in cash and
stock. Lundin rose 19 percent while
Equinox fell 9 percent. Both trade on the
Toronto Stock Exchange.
The deals came just two days after
Warren Buffett said in his annual letter
to investors that he is “itchy” to make
more big acquisitions for his company,
Berkshire Hathaway Inc. Berkshire had
$38 billion in cash at the end of last year.
Its shares rose 2.8 percent.
Humana Inc. rose 3.8 percent after the
health insurer raised its 2011 earnings
forecast for the third time since
November. The company also said it

for 3 million active duty and retired mil-
itary members and their families in sev-
eral Southern states.

would help the economy grow.
Separately, the National Association
of Realtors said fewer people signed
contracts to purchase homes in January,
the latest evidence that the housing
market is struggling. The trade group
said its index of sales agreements for
previously occupied homes fell 2.8 per-
cent last month to a reading of 89.9.
That’s higher than the 75.9 reading
from June, the low point since the
housing bust. But it’s below 100, which
is considered a healthy level. The last
time it reached that point was in April,
the final month people could qualify
for a home-buying tax credit.
Consumer spending was growing at
the fastest pace in four years in the
final three months of 2010, helping to
support the overall economy. But the
weak showing in January raised ques-
tions about how strong spending will
be going forward.
The modest 0.2 percent rise in spend-
ing was even weaker when inflation
was taken into account. After adjusting

for price changes — particularly a
steep rise in energy costs — spending
actually dipped 0.1 percent in January.
That was the poorest showing since
inflation-adjusted spending had fallen
0.8 percent in September 2009.
“Overall we expect consumption to
be fairly strong in the first half of the
year. But the way things are going at
the moment, all the payroll tax cut will
do is offset the rise in gasoline and
food prices, rather than provide a boost
to real spending,” said Paul Dales, sen-
ior economist at Capital Economics.
The latest survey by the National
Association for Business Economics
released Monday predicted consumer
spending will rise 3.2 percent this year,
up significantly from the actual spend-
ing gain of 1.8 percent in 2010.
The Social Security tax cut will give
the typical family an extra $1,000 to
spend this year. But the recent surge in
gasoline prices has raised worries that
consumers may need to spend the extra
money on fuel, and not new goods and
services.

Tigers look to Morris
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
If there’s one thing a losing league record
will do, it’s hide the efforts of some truly
great players — and that isn’t always fair.
Take the Notre Dame-Belmont girls’ bas-
ketball team, which plays in the very tough
West Catholic Athletic League. Year in and
year out, Notre Dame is forced to run through
a gauntlet in league play and it isn’t always
pretty. This year, the Tigers were 2-10 in the
WCAL season.
But they find themselves in the semifinals
of the Central Coast Section Division IV
bracket thanks in large part to the play of
Emily Morris, the senior post player who has
put up solid numbers once again for the
Tigers.
In her 2011 CCS debut, No. 51 led Notre
Dame to an impressive 47-29 victory over
Gunderson. It was a game dominated by the
Tigers and Morris, who scored 20 points and
pulled down 7 rebounds. She also had two
assists.
For her efforts, Morris is the Daily Journal
Athlete of the Week.
“Emily is the bell cow,” said Notre Dame
coach Josh Davenport. “She absolutely is
integral with everything we do offensively
and defensively.”
Morris is definitely the life blood of the
Tigers attack. Were it not for her efforts,
Notre Dame would not be where they are and
the season would have been worse.
On the year, Morris scored 40 percent of
her team’s points, with a season-high 23
against St. Francis in one of their two league
wins.
“Offensively, we put her at the high post
and we run everything through her,”
Davenport said. “We play off of her. She’s a
willing passer, she can go for hers when she
needs to, but she’ll make the good pass when
it leads to an easier shot.”
And on the other end of the court,
Davenport feels that Morris is just as impor-
tant.

Raiders deals include no signing bonuses
By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ALAMEDA — While the Oakland Raiders
have handed out some big contracts already to
keep potential free agents off the open market,
they won’t have to start paying out on those
deals until after there’s a resolution to the
league’s labor dispute.
The Raiders have made more than $80 mil-
lion in commitments to five of their players,
but none of those deals include signing bonus-
formance,” general manager Doug Wilson
said. “If we hadn’t started going in the right
direction today, we might have been more
active and not for the right reasons. But we’ve
added as many players as most teams have.”
Wilson made his moves earlier as the
Sharks were struggling during a six-game los-
ing streak. He picked up forward Kyle
Wellwood on waivers and traded for forward
Ben Eager on Jan. 18 — shortly after the los-
ing streak ended.
Wilson then traded for defenseman Ian

Free agents should play it close to the vest
By Brian Mahoney
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
That Big Three in Miami is already becoming
old news, giving way to another trio that can
reshape the league.
Speculation shifts quickly in the NBA.
LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh
hadn’t even played their first game together in
Miami before the focus changed to Carmelo
Anthony.
The Melodrama finally ended last week and
immediately kicked off an apparent Deronathon
— the long journey until Deron Williams can
become a free agent.
Dwight Howard and Chris Paul join him as the
potential headliners of the 2012 class. Even
before Anthony was traded to New York and
Williams was dealt to New Jersey the next day,
the three All-Stars were already facing questions
about their plans.
They shouldn’t answer.
That’s the advice from players who were part
of last year’s free agency frenzy. They believe
Anthony’s saga was worse and think the one
involving next year’s group could even top that.
Wade said if he could go back, he’d have done
what James did — answer no questions during
the season. So his message for his Olympic
teammates is pretty simple.
“Probably not to keep talking about it,” Wade
said.
Hall of Famer and TNT analyst Charles
Barkley was even more direct.
“The thing that bugs me the most, I don’t
understand why you talk about these things
when you’re not a free agent. Carmelo should
have came out like Albert Pujols and said, ‘Hey
listen, we’re not going to talk about this any
more. I play for the Denver Nuggets, and what-
ever happens, happens,”’ Barkley said during the
All-Star break. “You should never talk about the
job you’re going to have in the future.”
SHARKS

biggest difference has come from the core of
players who have been here all year long, led
by goalie Antti Niemi. He has started the past
18 games, going 14-2-1 with a 1.91 goals
against average and .934 save percentage as
the Sharks have played much stronger defense
in front of him.
Devin Setoguchi has scored 11 of his 18
goals over the last 15 games, Logan Couture
has kept up his strong rookie season, and the
Sharks have gotten better play of late from
stars line Joe Thornton, Patrick Marleau and
Dany Heatley.

“I don’t understand
why you talk
about these things
when you’re not a
free agent.… You
should never talk
about the job
Charles Barkley
you’re going to
have in the future.”
But the questions will be unavoidable. For
Williams, they began the minute he arrived in
New Jersey. He said during his news conference
it was too soon to think about committing to the
Nets long term.
Paul is sure to draw just as much media atten-
tion as Anthony on Wednesday, with New
Orleans making its lone visit to Madison Square
Garden. He’s long been considered the next
piece that comes to New York — unless it’s
Williams or Howard.
That’s the legacy of last summer, when James,
Wade and Bosh set in motion the idea of super
teams through free agency.
“I think at first it was the unknown, but now
everyone gets to see that quote-unquote star
players in this league can go try to team up, so
now everyone wants to talk about where they can
go and who they can team up with,” Wade said.
“Now it’s something that’s become reality.”
The questions started some two years early for
last year’s class. James at first seemed to like the
attention, but tired of the talk and the effect it was
having on the Cavs. He announced in November
2009 he wouldn’t take any more free agency
questions until the season was over.
“It gets to the point where you’re answering
for a certain amount of time and then you would
say, ’All right, I’m done,” said Amare
Stoudemire, the focus of trade talk around the
deadline two straight years before leaving
“You can talk about the additions but the
majority of the improvement on this hockey
team came in this dressing room, our own
guys stepping up and playing the way they are
capable of,” Wilson said. “You combine it
with the four players we added, that was
something we were looking to do all along.”
The one move the Sharks could have made
was to go after a proven backup goalie with
Antero Niittymaki sidelined since Jan. 13
with a groin injury.
But Niittymaki practiced for the second
straight day Monday and the lack of a deal is
a sign of confidence in his ability to return.
“I thought he looked better today than he
did yesterday,” McLellan said. “It’s still going
to take some time. It’s not an injury that we
can fool around with. He has to be 100 per-
cent, especially at this time of year, before he

“And once you say you’re done, then your
team can refocus. Even though the talk will still
be out there, but the team can refocus on the
actual goal of the year instead of answering
questions all season.”
The buzz around the Hornets’ point guard
started in September with reports Paul planned
to ask out. Howard expressed his frustration
three weeks ago with theories he would look to
flee Orlando for bigger markets in Los Angeles
or New York.
Players can control the story — or at least con-
tain it — by simply refusing to participate in it,
the route that Anthony declined.
Even after his trade to New York, he took to
his Twitter account last week to fire back when
Nuggets coach George Karl was critical of his
defensive play.
Bosh went through that, too. After enduring all
the questions from the media — not to mention
fans on the streets of Toronto — he was barely
gone when Raptors general manager Bryan
Colangelo told a radio station that his franchise
player had “checked out” late in the season.
“I would not want to go through it again and
the only advice I could give them is just stay
strong, just keep playing basketball,” Bosh said.
“As much as you can, don’t let it affect you and
just be prepared for anything that comes out
there.
“People are going to say, ‘Oh, he’s checked
out, he’s not paying attention, he’s given up on
his team.’ They’re going to try to find some kind
of way to just throw you off your game. You just
have to just stay the trail, keep practicing, keep
working and just be prepared to talk about it
every time you speak with the media.”
The on-deck free agents say they learned from
watching their predecessors, but their situations
will bring new challenges. Perhaps even ques-
tions about franchise tags, which owners may
push for as way to keep this trio from leaving.
gets back into action.”
After playing 10 of their past 12 games on
the road, the Sharks will be home for 13 of the
final 19 games of the season. The Sharks have
been better this season on the road, having
gone 15-10-2 at HP Pavilion, while winning
22 of 37 games away from home — including
a pair of games to open the season in Sweden.
The Sharks begin this stretch in third place
in the Western Conference and on top of the
Pacific Division with 78 points. But with only
seven points separating third and 11th place,
they are far from comfortable.
“We’re not out of the danger zone yet,”
Thornton said. “We still have to continue to
win and our fate is in our own hands. But we
can’t stop getting points. Every game is really
important right now.”

Window for Mavericks contest closes
HALF MOON BAY — The Mavericks big
wave contest is officially a no-go for this year.
The three-month window to hold the surf com-
petition closed Monday. Contest organizers say
the swells at the famous spot north of Half Moon
Bay were never big enough to call 24 top surfers
to the event.
Organizers blame La Nina weather conditions
for the calmer waters that didn’t come close to the
30- to 40-foot breakers needed to call the contest.
Since the Mavericks competition started in
1999, surf conditions have only been right to hold
the event seven times.
Holding period for ‘The Eddie’ ends
HALEIWA, Hawaii — The Eddie won’t go.
The three-month holding period for the
Quicksilver In Memory of Eddie Aikau surf
tournament on Oahu’s North Shore ended
Monday. The big-wave invitational was last held
in December 2009.
Waves must be at least 20-feet for the compe-
tition to be held. Since “The Eddie” began in
1984, it has only been held eight times.
RAIDERS
Continued from page 11
as Oakland’s “first-round pick” this year since
the Raiders sent that selection to New
England before the 2009 season to acquire
Seymour. He has already played two seasons
in Oakland, making the Pro Bowl last year as
the Raiders finished 8-8 for the first non-los-
ing season since 2002.
Seymour made a big impact on the field, as
well as in the locker room where a mostly
young team viewed him as a strong leader
with the experience of having won three Super
Bowl titles with the Patriots.
“In my opinion, he was the heartbeat of our
defense as far as high level of performance he
demands from everybody on the field,” Routt
said. “He’s definitely someone you don’t want
to disappoint or let down because he came
from New England where he won three titles.
You don’t want him to have any harsh feelings
about no longer being in New England.”
The Raiders tried to keep Wimbley for
much less money by exercising a $3.5 million
buyback option that would have given him
about $4.1 million next season. But the NFL
ruled that contract was invalid so the Raiders
used the franchise tag instead to keep the
player who led the team in sacks last season.
Oakland views Routt as a potential number
one cornerback after he had his best season in
six years as a pro last year, putting up some of
the best numbers in the league in terms of
shutting down opposing receivers.

The 171-pound class was the most fruitful
for county wrestlers, as three locals finished
in the top six — Nicholls (champion),
Porcedda (third) and Alspaugh (fifth).
Although Alspaugh won’t be wrestling in
the state tournament, he can take solace in
the fact that he had the most pins in the
shortest amount of time at CCS. In his five
wins, Alspaugh won all by pin in a total time
of nine minutes and eight seconds. El

semifinal opponent or possible championship

Serra, the No. 2 seed in Division I, faces
No. 6 Oak Grove at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday at

finals of the 2002 tournament, but the Padres

Burlingame may have to go through two

The Wildcats slipped by Burlingame earli-

finals.
If Burlingame gets past the Wildcats, a

the Irish get past No. 4 Aptos. The Panthers

Health brief
Past medical testing on humans revealed
ATLANTA — Shocking as it may seem, U.S. government
doctors once thought it was fine to experiment on disabled peo-
ple and prison inmates. Such experiments included giving hep-
atitis to mental patients in Connecticut, squirting a pandemic
flu virus up the noses of prisoners in Maryland, and injecting
cancer cells into chronically ill people at a New York hospital.
Much of this horrific history is 40 to 80 years old, but it is
the backdrop for a meeting in Washington this week by a pres-
idential bioethics commission. The meeting was triggered by
the government’s apology last fall for federal doctors infecting
prisoners and mental patients in Guatemala with syphilis 65
years ago.
U.S. officials also acknowledged there had been dozens of
similar experiments in the United States — studies that often
involved making healthy people sick.
An exhaustive review by the Associated Press of medical
journal reports and decades-old press clippings found more
than 40 such studies. At best, these were a search for lifesav-
ing treatments; at worst, some amounted to curiosity-satisfying
experiments that hurt people but provided no useful results.
Inevitably, they will be compared to the well-known
Tuskegee syphilis study. In that episode, U.S. health officials
tracked 600 black men in Alabama who already had syphilis
but didn’t give them adequate treatment even after penicillin
became available.

Christian medical plans get pass
By Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The brain tumor
came back. An ugly mass growing in
plain view threatened Karen Niles’
remaining eye. She needed more surgery.
This time, however, her medical plan
wouldn’t pay.
It sounds like one of those insurance
“horror stories” that President Barack
Obama hammered home during the
fierce debate to pass his health care over-
haul. Except Niles’ plan ended up as the
beneficiary of a rare exemption to the
new law — a waiver highlighted in the
plan’s promotional materials.
The plan didn’t come from an insurer,
but from a religious “health care sharing
ministry.” Consumer advocates call them
a gamble.
These plans successfully lobbied
Democratic lawmakers to free their
members from the requirement that
everyone in the country have health
insurance.
“Christians are exempt from insurance
mandates,” Niles’ old plan, Medi-Share,
says on its website. Sharing ministries
are “the only organized health care con-
cept to receive a special exemption from
the taxes, penalties and regulations” that
the law imposes on insurers, the site
says.
Medi-Share members affirm a state-
ment of Christian beliefs and pledge to
follow a code that includes no tobacco or
illegal drugs, no sex outside of marriage,
and no abuse of alcohol or legal medica-
tions. Every month, they pay a fixed
“share” to cover the medical expenses of
members in need. The cost usually is less
than private insurance, but it’s not tax
deductible. Members use a network of
medical providers.
If that seems close to regular health
insurance, it’s not, says Michael
“Christians are exempt from insurance mandates....the
only organized health care concept to receive a special
exemption from the taxes, penalties and regulations.”
McRaith, the top insurance regulator in
Illinois. “We have seen individuals who
buy into a sharing program believing
they are paying for a promise, and in fact
that is not what they are receiving,”
McRaith said.
“There is no promise or certainty this
sharing program will pay for health care
expenses,” he said.
Florida-based Medi-Share says it’s
faithfully helped members pay medical
bills for more than 17 years, based on a
Bible verse: “Carry each other’s burdens,
and in this way you will fulfill the law of
Christ.”
“It accomplishes some of the same
purposes of health insurance,” said Medi-
Share’s president, Robert Baldwin.
“There are also a lot of contrasts ... first
and foremost, the biblical basis:
Members pray for one another and are
prone to encouraging one another.”
Karen Niles’ husband wouldn’t recom-
mend it to anybody. “They have done
their damage on me and my wife,” said
Robert Niles, a leader and teacher in his
small-town Oklahoma church. Medi-
Share’s Baldwin blames state regulators
for the Niles’ misfortune.
Robert Niles said he found out about
Medi-Share from a brochure a relative
picked up on a church retreat. He had
changed jobs and needed insurance.
“Everything they said sounded good, so I
filled out an application,” said Niles, now
67 and retired from a career in sales.
They joined in 2003. Their monthly
shares, or premiums, ranged from $450
to $500.
It’s unclear how many people belong
THE DAILY JOURNAL
— Karen Niles
to sharing plans, maybe about 100,000.
Medi-Share is one of three main ones,
with about 40,000 individual members.
Members tend to have modest incomes;
many are self-employed.
Each plan has its own rules and track
record. Although they have procedures
for dealing with coverage disputes,
they’re largely unregulated by state
insurance departments that oversee pri-
vate carriers.
At first, the plans feared Obama’s
health care overhaul could put them out
of business. Pressing toward a goal of
coverage for all, Congress was consider-
ing a requirement that everyone in the
U.S. carry health insurance. Medical bill
sharing is not insurance.
The plans formed the Alliance of
Health Care Sharing Ministries, hired
lobbyists and approached the Senate
Finance Committee and the Senate
Health, Education, Labor and Pensions
Committee, which were writing much of
the legislation. Finance Committee
spokeswoman Erin Shields said lawmak-
ers granted the exemption out of respect
for religious freedom.
“We wanted our members to at least be
able to keep participating in the pro-
grams,” said Medi-Share’s Baldwin.
“Down the road, I believe that it would
increase membership, depending on
what happens to insurance costs.”
Illinois insurance regulator McRaith
says Congress should attach more safe-
guards to the exemption, such as requir-
ing sharing programs to have capital
reserves deep enough to handle unusual-
ly expensive cases.

Obama: Flexibility OK,but health care law remains
By Ben Feller
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Anxious to ease deep-
ening political tensions with the states,
President Barack Obama on Monday told
governors he wants to speed up their ability to
enforce his signature health care law on their
own terms. But his concession goes only so
far: He warned he won’t allow states to weak-
en the law.
He also told them not to vilify their own
states’ public workers while struggling with
spending cuts.
Hosting governors of both parties on his
own turf, Obama offered them what they often
request: more flexibility as they cope with
painful budget dilemmas. Declaring that he
would “go to bat for whatever works,” Obama
supported letting states propose their own
health care plans by 2014 — three years faster
than the current law allows.
Yet this would be no change to the funda-
mental requirements of a federal law that has
divided the nation and prompted about half
the states to try to overturn it through law-
suits. To gain new powers, states would first
have to convince Washington that their plans
would cover as many people, provide equally
affordable and comprehensive care and not
add to the federal deficit.
More broadly, Obama sought to send a mes-
sage — both cooperative and pointed — as
leaders at all levels of government grapple
with huge economic pressures. The yearly
gathering of the president and the state chief
executives came as budget disputes are roil-
ing, most notably in Wisconsin, where dra-
matic protests have raged for days.
Calling for shared sacrifice, Obama said
HEALTH

O’Malley of Maryland speak after they met with Barack Obama at the White House in
Washington,D.C.
public workers understand they must absorb
their share of budget cuts. But he delivered a
sharp message to governors seeking to strip
away union protections, saying: “I don’t think
it does anybody any good when public
employees are denigrated or vilified, or their
rights are infringed upon.”
Wisconsin’s governor, Scott Walker, was
not at the White House but rather in his home
state as a nationally watched budget show-
down rolled on. He called for Democratic
lawmakers to return to the state by Tuesday
REUTERS
and vote on his bill that would end most col-
lective bargaining rights for public employees
as part of a plan to plug a $3.6 billion short-
fall.
Governors in Washington responded tepidly
to Obama’s pledges of flexibility on the health
care law, which requires Americans to buy
health insurance or pay a penalty beginning in
2014.
“Oklahoma wants to do Oklahoma’s own
plan,” said the state’s Republican governor,
Mary Fallin. Asked whether Obama’s plan
Tuesday • Mar. 1, 2011 17
was flexible enough, she said: “We’ll see.”
The closer Republicans look at the details,
the less flexibility they will see, said econo-
mist Douglas Holtz-Eakin, leading domestic
policy adviser to 2008 GOP presidential can-
didate John McCain. “If you can’t control eli-
gibility or the benefits package, it’s like say-
ing: ’Here’s the bill, you go figure out how to
pay for it,’” he said.
Michael Steel, spokesman for House
Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said Obama’s
offer has no more flexibility. “It’s a head
fake,” said Steel.
White House officials said the administra-
tion was not backing away from the individual
coverage requirement, but that the provision,
ultimately, is only a means to an end. If states
can show they’ll achieve the same goals
through a different approach, the administra-
tion is willing to sign off. White House offi-
cials said they still believe the individual man-
date is the best way to meet the law’s cover-
age and affordability targets.
The idea to move up the date for state
experimentation did not start with Obama.
Democratic Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon and
Massachusetts Republican Sen. Scott Brown
have already proposed it in legislation. But
the president gave it a prominent endorse-
ment. “I think that’s a reasonable proposal,“
the president said. ”I support it.“
Republican governors control most of the
26 states that have sued to stop Obama’s
health care overhaul, his signature domestic
accomplishment. They say it would cost their
states too much money. Court rulings so far
have been mixed, upholding the law more
times than not. Last month in Florida, U.S.
District Judge Roger Vinson ruled the law was
unconstitutional.

Healthy diet can help ward off type 2 diabetes By Joanne Capano
TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES
A recent online news report
announced that the number of
Americans with diabetes could
triple by the year 2050. According
to the U.S. Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention, one in 10
U.S. adults have the disease now,
but this figure could grow to one in
three in the next 40 years.
Diabetes is currently the leading
cause of death in the United States,
responsible for about $170 billion in
health care costs. By 2050, the cost
of treating patients with diabetes
could rise to nearly $500 billion a
year.
How can we prevent this dramat-
ic increase from occurring? In some
cases, we can’t. Diabetes Type 1, a
condition usually diagnosed in chil-
dren and adults, is when the body
does not produce insulin, a hormone
needed to convert sugar and starch-
es into glucose, the basic fuel for the
cells of the body. About 5 percent to
10 percent of people with diabetes
have this form of the disease. With
the help of insulin therapy, people
with Type 1 Diabetes can manage
their condition and lead long,
healthy lives.
The other 90 percent to 95 percent
of people with diabetes have Type 2,
a preventable form that’s caused
when the body does not produce
enough insulin, or the cells ignore
the insulin. This causes glucose to
build up in the blood instead of
going into the cells. This can lead to
health complications such as glau-
coma, hypertension, heart disease,
hearing loss, kidney disease and
stroke.
Before people develop Type 2
If you crave something sweet, fresh fruit is a much healthier choice than diabetes, they almost always devel-
doughnuts. op “prediabetes,” a condition where
blood glucose levels are higher than
normal but not yet high enough to
be diagnosed as diabetes.
Maintaining a balanced blood sugar
level, therefore, is key to preventing
or delaying the onset of diabetes.
This can be achieved through a
healthy lifestyle, including a natural
whole foods diet.
Here are some recommendations
on how to maintain a healthy blood
sugar balance:
EAT LOW GI FOODS
The Glycemic Index (GI) is used
to measure the effect a food has on
one’s blood sugar level. The index
ranks carbohydrates on a scale from
zero to 100; foods with a high GI
are rapidly digested and absorbed
and will result in a marked fluctua-
tion in blood sugar levels. Low GI
foods, conversely, produce gradual
rises in blood sugar and insulin lev-
els. Processed foods, such as can-
dies, cakes, doughnuts and choco-
late, rank high on the index scale,
whereas most fruit and vegetables,
whole grains and lean proteins will
rank on the lower end.
EAT REGULARLY
Going for long periods of time
between meals can cause low blood
sugar levels. The danger lies that
when you allow yourself to get to
the point where you feel tired, shaky
and hungry. This makes you suscep-
tible to overeating or choosing
foods that will give you a quick
energy boost, like sugar or caffeine.
This will cause an immediate sugar
“high,” which will inevitably be fol-
lowed with a sugar “low.” It’s best
to eat small meals every four to five
hours to maintain blood sugar lev-
els.
A combination meal of a lean pro-
THE DAILY JOURNAL
tein and a high fiber carbohydrate
will allow glucose to enter the cells
at a slower rate and help keep you
feeling full between meals. Healthy
choices include: quinoa and chick-
peas, green salad with lean turkey
breast, vegetable and bean soup,
millet with fresh berries, wild
salmon with steamed vegetables.
MAINTAIN A REGULAR
EXERCISE PROGRAM
Exercise, in particular cardiovas-
cular exercise, revs up the body’s
metabolism and helps balance blood
sugar by allowing your body to use
up all the excess glucose that’s
floating around in your blood-
stream. Increasing muscle mass
through strength training also uses
up more blood sugar than fat. The
rewards of a regular exercise pro-
gram are numerous from maintain-
ing a healthy weight to decreasing
the risk of many diseases. A combi-
nation cardio and strength training
program three to four times a week
would be sufficient for adults.
AVOID STRESS
It would be difficult to find some-
one who doesn’t feel some degree
of stress. Too much stress, however,
can lead to health problems, includ-
ing imbalanced blood sugar levels.
When our bodies feel physical or
emotional stress, it naturally releas-
es two hormones called cortisol and
epinephrine to give us the energy
we need to get through the situation.
These hormones raise our blood
sugar level since we can’t rise to the
challenge if our blood sugar is low.
A prolonged period of stress will
inevitably keep our blood sugar
level in an imbalanced state, possi-
bly leading to a prediabetic condi-
tion.

Gene therapy raises hope for a future AIDS cure

By Marilynn Marchione
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
In a bold new approach ultimately aimed at
trying to cure AIDS, scientists used genetic
engineering in six patients to develop blood
cells that are resistant to HIV, the virus that
causes the disease.
It’s far too early to know if this scientific
first will prove to be a cure, or even a new
treatment. The research was only meant to
show that, so far, it seems feasible and safe.
The concept was based on the astonishing
case of an AIDS patient who seems to be
cured after getting blood cells from a donor
with natural immunity to HIV nearly four
years ago in Berlin. Researchers are seeking a
more practical way to achieve similar immu-
nity using patients’ own blood cells.
The results announced Monday at a confer-
ence in Boston left experts cautiously excited.
“For the first time, people are beginning to
think about a cure” as a real possibility, said
Dr. John Zaia, head of the government panel
that oversees gene therapy experiments. Even
if the new approach doesn’t get rid of HIV
completely, it may repair patients’ immune
systems enough that they can control the virus
and not need AIDS medicines — “what is
called a functional cure,” he said.
Carl Dieffenbach, AIDS chief at the
National Institute of Allergy and Infectious
Diseases, agreed.
Questions remain
• People born without the CCR5 gene
are generally healthy, but will deleting
it have unforeseen consequences?
• Will HIV find another way into cells?
Certain types of the virus can use a
second protein receptor, though this is
less common and usually when AIDS
is advanced. Sangamo is testing a
“We’re hopeful that this is sufficient to give
the level of immune reconstitution similar to
what was seen with the patient from
Germany,” he said.
This is the first time researchers have per-
manently deleted a human gene and infused
the altered cells back into patients. Other gene
therapy attempts tried to add a gene or muffle
the activity of one, and have not worked
against HIV.
The virus can damage the immune system
for years before people develop symptoms
and are said to have AIDS — acquired
immune deficiency syndrome. The virus tar-
gets special immune system soldiers called T-
cells. It usually enters these cells through a
protein receptor, or “docking station,” called
CCR5.
Some people (about 1 percent of whites;
fewer of minorities) lack both copies of the
CCR5 gene and are naturally resistant to HIV.
similar approach aimed at that
protein, too.
• How long will the modified cells last?
Will more be needed every few years?
• Could doctors just infuse Sangamo’s
product rather than removing cells
and modifying them in the lab?
• What might this cost?
One such person donated blood stem cells in
2007 to an American man living in Berlin
who had leukemia and HIV.
The cell transplant appears to have cured
both problems, but finding such donors for
everyone with HIV is impossible, and trans-
plants are medically risky.
So scientists wondered: Could a patient’s
own cells be used to knock out the CCR5 gene
and create resistance to HIV?
A California biotechnology company,
Sangamo (SANG-uh-moh) BioSciences Inc.,
makes a treatment that can cut DNA at precise
locations and permanently “edit out” a gene.
Dr. Jacob Lalezari, director of Quest
Clinical Research of San Francisco, led the
first test of this with the company and col-
leagues at the University of California in San
Francisco and Los Angeles.
He warned that it would be “way overstat-
ed” to suggest that the results so far are a pos-
sible cure. “It’s an overreach of the data.
There are a lot of people out there with hopes
and dreams around the C-word,” so caution is
needed.
In the study, six men with HIV had their
blood filtered to remove a small percentage of
their T-cells. The gene-snipping compound
was added in the lab, and about one-fourth of
the cells were successfully modified. The
cells were mixed with growth factors to make
them multiply and then infused back into the
patients.
Three men received about 2.5 billion modi-
fied cells. Three others received about 5 bil-
lion.
Three months later, five men had three
times the number of modified cells expected.
As much as 6 percent of their total T-cells
appear to be the new type — resistant to HIV,
Lalezari said.
The sixth man also had modified cells, but
fewer than expected. In all six patients, the
anti-HIV cells were thriving nearly a year
after infusion, even in tissues that can hide
HIV when it can’t be detected in blood.
“The cells are engrafting — they’re staying
in the bloodstream, they’re expanding over
time,” said Lalezari, who has no personal
financial ties to Sangamo, the study’s sponsor.
The only side effect was two days of flulike
symptoms. It will take longer to determine
safety, but several AIDS experts said they
were encouraged so far.

Five myths about foot care

Old myths like that example are fun to laugh at. We
believed them as children. “Step on a crack and you’ll
break your mother’s back.” But there are other myths
that are no laughing matter, especially when they in-
volve your health.
MYTH: Cutting a notch (a “V”) in a toenail will re-
lieve the pain of ingrown toenails.
REALITY: When a toenail is ingrown, the nail curves
downward and grows into the skin. Cutting a “V”
in the toenail does not affect its growth. New nail
growth will continue to curve downward. Cutting a
“V” may actually cause more problems and is painful
in many cases.
MYTH: My foot or ankle can’t be broken if I can walk
on it.
REALITY: It’s entirely possible to walk on a foot or
ankle with a broken bone. It depends on your thresh-
old for pain, as well as the severity of the injury. But
it’s not a smart idea. Walking with a broken bone can
cause further damage. It is crucial to stay off an in-
jured foot until diagnosis by a foot and ankle surgeon.
Until then, apply ice and elevate the foot to reduce
pain.
MYTH: Shoes cause bunions.
REALITY: Bunions are most often caused by an in-
herited faulty mechanical structure of the foot. It is
not the bunion itself that is inherited, but certain
foot types make a person prone to developing a bun-
ion. While wearing shoes that crowd the toes together
can, over time, make bunions more painful, shoes
themselves do not cause bunions. Although some
treatments can ease the pain of bunions, only surgery
can correct the deformity.
MYTH: A doctor can’t fix a broken toe.
REALITY: Nineteen of the 26 bones in the foot are
toe bones. There are things we can do to make a bro-
ken toe heal better and prevent problems later on,
like arthritis or toe deformities. Broken toes that
aren’t treated correctly can also make walking and
wearing shoes difficult. A foot and ankle surgeon will
x-ray the toe to learn more about the fracture. If the
broken toe is out of alignment, the surgeon may have
to insert a pin, screw or plate to reposition the bone.
MYTH: Corns have roots.
REALITY: A corn is a small build-up of skin caused
by friction. Many corns result from a hammertoe de-
formity, where the toe knuckle rubs against the shoe.
The only way to eliminate these corns is to surgically
correct the hammertoe condition. Unlike a callus, a Al Ghamgosar, DPM
corn has a central core of hard material. But corns do
not have roots. Attempting to cut off a corn or apply-
ing medicated corn pads can lead to serious infection
or even amputation. A foot and ankle surgeon can
safely evaluate and treat corns and the conditions
contributing to them.

SHOT
Continued from page 1
Police were first called to the scene of
a disturbance at the CVS Pharmacy at
the Borel Shopping Center on reports a
man making threats to employees and
wielding a weapon at about 10:30 a.m.,
Manheimer said.
CVS employees described Caron as
irrational and carrying a handgun,
Manheimer said. He left the area on foot
and police were unable to locate him
until a second call came in from a resi-
dent on Edinburgh Avenue who said a
man was armed and acting oddly on the
back porch of a neighbor before 11 a.m.,
Manheimer said.
Police then set up a perimeter to block
off the 1500 block of Oak Street
between Barneson and Borel avenues to
try to negotiate with Caron. A hostage
negotiator was ready to engage Caron
before the man came out of a house car-
rying a gun.
“He pointed directly at the officers and
fired,” Manheimer said.
Caron then fled to his own backyard
with police in pursuit before he was shot
GORDON
Continued from page 1
He uses Proposition 36, the Substance
Abuse and Crime Prevention Act
approved by voters in 2000, as an exam-
ple of why the initiative process needs to
be reformed.
Proposition 36 was meant to keep sim-
ple drug offenders out of court and into
treatment but $120 million in funding
only lasted for five years and the burden
was shifted from the state to counties to
pay for the program.
Some counties have scrapped the pro-
gram, however, giving some drug
offenders a “get out of jail free card,”
Gordon said.
“The true cost of these measures needs
to be transparent,” he said.
Gordon introduced the legislation last
week, along with 17 other bills that tack-
le easing traffic on Highway 101, the
expansion of plastics recycling and the
protection of assets of senior citizens,
among others.
The freshman assemblyman is on the

Redevelopment Agency has a current

grand theft and commercial burglary of
$3,200 in goods from Macy’s depart-
ment store in Daly City. She was sen-
tenced to six months jail and three years
probation.
In a separate scamming case,
Jacqueline Turner, 23, was sentenced to
30 days jail for second-degree burglary.
Turner reportedly asked aid workers for
and killed. Two officers fired at Caron.
Both are on administrative leave, pend-
ing the outcome of an internal San
Mateo Police Department investigation
and parallel District Attorney’s Office
investigation.
The officers have 11 and 13 years
experience and have had crisis interven-
tion training.
Police recovered a .38 caliber Smith &
Wesson revolver from the scene that had
expended shell casings in it, Manheimer
said.
Witnesses said Caron was running in
“If you put something

government activity,you need to tell us how we pay for it.”

Budget Committee and has spent his
first few months in office focusing on
how to slash a $25 billion state deficit.
Solutions include placing tax measure
extensions on the June ballot and dis-
mantling local redevelopment agencies
as proposed by Gov. Jerry Brown.
While Gordon has been focused on the
budget, he is also a member of the com-
mittees on health, local government and
revenue and taxation and has crafted leg-
islation to protect the elderly from fraud
and to allow solo drivers to use carpool
lanes during rush hour on Highway 101
by paying a fee.
His bill, AB 1288, Elder Abuse
Protection in Conservatorships, would
make it easier for the state Public
Guardian’s office to protect the assets of
a senior citizen who has no family to
handle their affairs.
Gordon’s bill will extend the Public
Brittan Avenue; $650,000 for new
branding; $430,000 for undergrounding
utilities on Industrial Road in anticipa-
tion of the Palo Alto Medical Foundation
Hospital; $400,000 to improve facades;
$350,000 to repair the Pulgas Creek
bank; $290,000 to study and plan
drainage improvements; $200,000 to
improve Old County Road; $175,000 to
upgrade Pulgas Creek levee; and
$100,000 for aesthetic and safety
improvements along El Camino Real
near the anticipated Transit Village.
The City Council also signed off on
buying the former Foodville site at 616
Laurel St. for $2.2 million. The council
spoke about plans to develop the land
but did not specify exactly how.
“everything they offered.”
Daniel Leon Stansbury, 41, of Los
Altos, settled his case by pleading no
contest to two counts of commercial bur-
glary, one count of identity theft and one
count of grand theft. Stansbury, accord-
ing to prosecutors, twice masqueraded
as a fire victim to collect more than
$2,000 in gift cards, a rental car and
hotel lodging. He faces three years when
sentenced March 22.

Manheimer said. The shoot-out took
place less than two blocks away from
Borel Middle School, although the inci-
dent did not interrupt normal school
activities.
“Our express desire is to never have to
use deadly force,” Manheimer said.
Other agencies responded to the
scene, including the Belmont Police
Department, San Mateo County District
Attorney’s Office, San Mateo County
crime lab and the San Mateo County
Coroner’s Office.
The last officer-involved shooting in
San Mateo was in August 2009 when
police were serving a “high-risk” search
warrant for a home on Newbridge
Avenue. The person named in the search
warrant tried to flee the scene in a car,
ramming a police vehicle in the process
before police fired on the suspect. The
suspect was seriously wounded but sur-
vived the shooting.

$1 a year for 20 years to lease it from the

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) - For some unexplained
reason, people in general will be much more gener-
ous to you right now. In reality, it will be they who
just figured out how much good fortune you’ve
thrown their way.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) - This could prove to be
not only a fun day for you, but also a lucky one as

position of being able to do something for you that
few others can.

to open up that will benefit you in a very specific way.

much knowledge can be acquired through a per-

your advantage many times in the near future.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) - It’s one of those days
where you might put your normal routine aside and
devote some time to a pleasurable event. It could be
nothing more than going to lunch with friends.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) - Things could work out rather
