CIA ACCUSED:SENATOR SEES TORTURE PROBE AS MEDDLING
By Angela Swartz
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Teachers and parents in the San Bruno
Park Elementary School District plan to
pack the school board meeting Wednesday
night to demand that the district restore
five school days.
District teachers agreed last year to take
five unpaid furlough days to help the dis-
trict when finances were tight, but now
San Bruno Education Association mem-
bers and parents are demanding the school
board restore student education days to the
district calendar.
The district now has $5 million in
reserves and restoring the five days would
only cost $250,000, according to a press
release from the association. It would also
relieve a needless financial burden for edu-
cators, said Julia Maynard, president of
the association and teacher in the district.
With millions in reserves now, its
time for the district and the school board
to restore the five student education days
so that our childrens school year is as
long as the year in all neighboring dis-
tricts, a full 180 days, she said in a state-
ment.
The item is currently under private ses-
sion negotiations, so board members
cant discuss the specifics of these, said
Trustee Henry Sanchez.
I look forward to listening to their
opinion, he said.
Meanwhile, board President Patrick
Flynn said its a little too late in his opin-
ion for them to protest the item.

a l t Di s n e y ( 1 9 0 1 -
1 9 6 6 ) g o t t he idea for
Disneyland when kids started
asking where Mickey Mouse and Snow
White lived. He envisioned a place
where parents and children could have
fun together.
***
It took a little more than a year to con-
vert 160 acres of orange groves in
Anaheim into Disneyland.
Construction began on May 1, 1954,
and the opening day was July 17, 1955.
Walt Disney borrowed against his life
insurance to nance the construction of
Disneyland.
***
Disneyland greeted its 1 millionth
guest, five-year-old Elsa Marquez,
seven weeks after the park opened, on
Sept. 8, 1955. The 10 millionth guest
was welcomed on Dec 31, 1957. The
100 millionth arrived on June 17, 1971
and the 500 millionth guest was on
Jan. 12, 2004.
***
When Disneyland opened in 1955,
Anaheim had seven hotels with a total
of 87 rooms. Today, Anaheim has
approximately 150 hotels and motels
with a total of 18,000 rooms. Anaheim
also has 450 restaurants.
***
Today, a ticket to Disneyland for one
day, with no special promotion or
package, costs $74 for children ages 3
to 9 and $80 for ages 10 and up.
***
The average speed of Space Mountain
rollercoaster at Disneyland is 30 mph.
***
You can visit Mickeys house,
Minnies house, Chip n Dales tree-
house and Donalds boat in Mickeys
Toontown at Disneyland.

The ofcial tagline for Disneyland is
The Happiest Place On Earth.
DisneyWorld in Florida has the tagline
The Most Magical Place On Earth.
***
The E ticket was introduced at
Disneyland in 1959. When Disneyland
opened in 1955 there was park admis-
sion, then separate tickets were pur-
chased for each ride. Rides were catego-
rized as A, B, C or D. Four years after
their opening, Disney introduced the E
ticket for the parks most popular rides.
***
The PeopleMover ride at Disneyland
had small trains that ran at a low speed
on an elevated track above
Tomorrowland. Goodyear sponsored
the ride from its opening in 1967 until
1981. The ride had Goodyear tires.
***
The introductions for a nightly event at
Disneyland began: Ladies and gentle-
men, boys and girls! Disneyland proud-
ly presents our spectacular festival pag-
eant of nighttime magic and imagina-
tion. In thousands of sparkling lights,
and electro-synthe-magnetic musical
sounds. Do you know what the intro-
duction was for? See answer at end.

The Sleeping Beauty castle is only 77
feet tall. It appears taller because of
forced perspective; design elements are

Thank you thank
you thank you.
This is what I hear
over and over, year
after year, from
families that we
serve. Either
verbally or in hand-written cards or letters
families say thank you: Thank for your
help; Thank you for all you have done to
make this process easier; Thank you for
making this final tribute to my mother one
which will be fondly remembered; Thank
you for your advice; Thank you for being
there for us at a time we needed you most;
Thank you for making it all easy for us;
Thank you for being a friend, etc. To hear
Thank you time and time again is a
confirmation for me that our Chapel of the
Highlands crew is doing their best to serve
families whove been through a death, in an
appropriate and professional manner, and
that we are doing the right thing in caring
for families during a difficult situation, in
turn making it more of a comfort for them.
Normally saying Youre welcome is
the correct response. Youre welcome, or
You are welcome, can be taken a number
of different ways. Generally it means you
are always a welcome guest. It can also be
taken as a blessing meaning you wish
wellness on the person who thanked you.
Wishing wellness or health to anyone is a
nice gesture. In recent years though we all
have witnessed the term Youre welcome
being substituted with Thank you back at
the person who is doing the thanking. This
is OK, but saying Youre welcome first
is taken as a hospitable and warm gesture.
Now that Thank you and Youre
welcome have been established, I would
like to say thank you back to the families we
serve: Thank you for supporting the Chapel
of the Highlands. Thank you for your
faithful patronage. Because of you we have
been able to continue with our high
standards and excellent level of service for
many years, since 1952. Thank you to those
families who weve helped so many times in
the past. Thank you to the new families
whove discovered that we offer them
respect and provide the dignified care that
their loved one deserves.
Your support, and the continued interest
from the community in our service, is what
keeps us going strong and available when
we are needed. Our costs have always been
considered fair, and the funds taken in for
our services are also very much appreciated.
Those Chapel of the Highlands funds along
with our support sifts back to the community
in different ways. Donations to local causes,
along with the donation of time through
membership in service organizations such as
Lions, I.C.F., Historical Society, Chamber
of Commerce, etc. is natural for us. Giving
back as a volunteer via these groups helps in
binding us with our neighbors, together
creating a better community for the future.
All in all there are many ways to say
Thank you. Doing so in a variety of ways
can create a circle of gratitude, in turn
making our community a better place.
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

Lee Foster, the executive produc-
ing director of Hillbarn Theatre
and descendent of Foster Citys
founding family, is heading to
Georgia for new adventures now
that the theater is in good hands.
Her father, T. Jack Foster Jr., has
always been a patron of the arts
and instilled in her a great appreci-
ation for theater, Foster said.
My father gave the land to
Hillbarn originally and theater in
general means a great deal to him;
theater, ballet, dance all kinds of
theater. He is always saying the
great cities have great art and that
meant a lot to me, both for the city
because Im a resident and I raised
my kids here, but also as a Foster.
Because I felt like that was a
charge, a personal responsibility
because Foster City is a great
city, Foster said.
Foster, 57, grew up in
Hillsborough, lived on the East
Coast and came back to settle
down in Foster City in 1997. After
switching careers, earning two
masters degrees
and rebuilding
Hillbarn, shes
decided to move
with her hus-
band to an artis-
tic community
near Atlanta,
Foster said.
Just like on
the stage, I like
to make my exit and leave people
wanting. I think you can stay too
long, and Id like to leave while
Im on top, Foster said. The sec-
ond reason is I never wanted to be
here forever. I have a bucket list of
lots of artistic things I want to do
and contribute to; so theres some
opportunities out there.
Shes mum on describing most
of those opportunities only say-
ing she hopes to use her experi-
ence at Hillbarn to further the arts,
Foster said.
One of the things Im really
interested in doing is working on a
book or article or series about lead-
ership in the arts and using specif-
ic physical examples of the ways
to sort of manifest passion and to
put that into artistic leadership and
management, Foster said.
Shes been credited with revital-
izing Hillbarn and has sat in near-
ly every seat in the house; she
started on the board of directors,
was promoted to executive direc-
tor, left for a brief period before
coming back to serve as both the
executive and the artistic director.
Shes even sang, danced, acted and
produced, Foster said.
She has a sincere fervor for all
forms of theater and is also the
executive directors of Diablo
Ballet Studio in Walnut Creek and
the Fremont Symphony
Orchestra, Foster said. Shes spent
the last 14 years dedicated to
Hillbarn and, Foster jokes, was
like raising her fth child.
Its sort of like being a parent.
You nurture, you love, you think,
you strategize on the best way to
make something great. And in
then end, you kind of have to let it
go and its got to be who it is
beyond you, Foster said.
Her time in the theater was her
second career and she used to work
on and marketed for cruise lines
for many years before committing
to Hillbarn as executive director in
2000, Foster said.
My career was putting bodies
in beds on cruise ships and I
moved back to the Bay Area and
into Foster City and Hillbarn was
about three blocks away from my
house, Foster said. So I thought,
if I can put bodies in beds, I can
put butts in seats here at the the-
ater.
Inspired to revamp the theater,
she returned to school and earned
two masters degrees in business
and in ne art, Foster said. She
went on to turn Hillbarn into a
successful nonprofit that draws
people from all over the Bay Area
and is the only theater on the
Peninsula to own its own build-
ing, Foster said.
She finally feels comfortable
leaving Hillbarn knowing its
become such a success and that it
will be left in the exceptional
hands of Dan Demers who will be
replacing her, Foster said.
When I met Dan, there wasnt a
bone in my body that wasnt
impressed. Hes friggin amaz-
ing, Foster said. Im just so
lucky that I can turn my baby over
to an incredible parent, I mean I
really love this institution. I
think its so critical for the com-
munity. It has to be in the hands of
someone who loves it.
She has fond memories and a
sincere appreciation for her staff,
particularly her husband Greg
Sudemeier, the companys musical
director who she met while work-
ing at Hillbarn, Foster said.
She wont be moving until the
end of the theater season in June
and plans to visit frequently. Shes
made some very close friends and
will miss her kids, father and the
artistic collaboration. Extremely
appreciative of all shes been
handed, shes ready to pass it on,
Foster said.
When we got here, honestly,
the board and the community kind
of gave us a magic paintbrush and
said go make [Hillbarn] whatever
you like. And here we are 14 years
later and we did it and it was so
fun, Foster said. So now some-
body else has to take that magic
paintbrush and do it again.

ordinance allowing its creation if
property owners desire.
The community benefit
improvement district would fund
services beyond what the city
provides such as extra security,
sidewalk cleaning and promo-
t i on. The approval, with
Councilwoman Diane Howard
abstaining, now allows creation
of the boundaries and manage-
ment structure which will be certi-
fied by an engineer and back to
the council in later spring or
early summer. A vote will be by
mail.
While an attorney representing
J & S Management, the property
managers of the Citibank building
at 702 Marshall St., questioned
the charter citys authority to set
different parameters than state law
for such a district, two property
owners involved in the process
praised the idea although one said
there was a learning curve.
Getting any property owner to
want to self-tax themselves is not
something we quickly understood
or related to, Eric Lochtefeld,
owner of the Fox Theatre along
with his wife, said. We now
understand.
As a charter city, Redwood City
can create its own procedures and
rules for the districts rather than
abiding by state law. The pro-
posed city ordinance calls for the
petition for creation to be signed
by property owners paying at
least 30 percent of the proposed
assessments and no one owner can
account for more than two-thirds
of that 30 percent. The district can
also be established and renewed in
20-year increments.
Tanya Gulesseriam, on behalf of
J & S Management, said the city
cant pass an ordinance with these
differences from state law and
should not adopt it without an
indication of how much the
assessment will be and how it will
be doled out to owners.
City attorney Pamela
Thompson said Gulesseriam was
mistaken. Councilwoman
Rosanne Foust took the response
one step further suggesting that
Gulesseriam attend meetings to
understand the inclusive commu-
nity other than when there is an
issue at hand.
It would be really nice to gure
out how 702 Marshall and all of
the tenants in the building can
become part of the community ...
versus feeling somewhat adversar-
ial, Foust said. This is a huge
opportunity and I think some of
your tenants might feel that way,
too.
The impetus for the CBID is the
growing population and populari-
ty of downtown coupled with the
dissolution of the redevelopment
agency which leaves the city only
providing a a baseline minimum
of $2.5 million on maintenance
and services but not more, said
Economic Development Manager
Sean Brooks.
Brooks said the downtown prop-
erty owners wanted enhanced serv-
ices which the CBID assessment
would cover.
Feedback from owners on the
idea has been very positive, said
Jeff Badstubner or Sequoia Realty
Services who called the district a
continuation of the communitys
support of the downtown precise
plan. The district is a way to not
just maintain downtown but con-
tinue growing it, he said.
Councilwoman Barbara Pierce
pointed to similar improvement
districts in other cities as exam-
ples.
There isnt any reason why it
shouldnt work well here, she
said.

CHICAGO These days, its faster and
cheaper than ever to decipher a persons
entire DNA. But a small study suggests that
looking for disease risks that way may not
be ready for the masses.
For one thing, the research found that
gene variants most likely linked with sig-
nicant disease were the least likely to be
accurately identied.
And analyzing the mass of data from the
DNA scan is a daunting task, researchers
said.
Some experts think more targeted gene-
mapping is a better approach. But while
whole genome sequencing is mostly done
for research, it has far-reaching potential
for diagnosing and treating genetic dis-
eases, even in people with no known risks.
The new results show its promise and its
challenges.
Stanford University researchers per-
formed whole genome sequencing in 12
healthy people. Most of the millions of
genetic variants they found were of
uncertain significance, although one
woman was found to have a high genetic
risk for cancer.
DNA is recovered by a simple blood test
and deciphered by machines. The difculty
lies in interpreting the ndings and gur-
ing out which variants are important and
which ones can be ignored. That takes days
of sophisticated follow-up lab tests and
interpretation to reveal potentially mean-
ingful genetic information, the researchers
said.
Gene mapping study shows promise, challenges
believes is the denition of having ve
years in a senior scal management posi-
tion. Raigoza, who became assistant con-
troller after Bob Adlers appointment to l l
out an unexpired term, was manager of
information systems.
Thats preparing payroll or making sure
all the departments can talk to each other.
Thats not a scal manager. Its a responsi-
bility and a major one but not a scal man-
agement one, Galligan said.
Galligan said, in his opinion, senior s-
cal manager equates to a controller or a chief
nancial ofcer position.
Raigozas spokesman, Alex Tourk dis-
agreed with Galligan and said the accusa-
tion questioning Mr. Raigozas qualica-
tions is absolutely false.
Some of qualications listed in the gov-
ernment code are subjective, said County
Counsel Glenn Levy.
As such, a judge would have the ability to
decide the merits of Mr. Galligans argu-
ments, Levy wrote to the Daily Journal.
Galligan said he contacted the Elections
Ofce to verify Raigozas qualications and
was told his only recourse was ling suit
which he did yesterday. Ajudicial decision is
expected to be fast-tracked to beat the ballot
print date.
The county controller must be a U.S. citi-
zen, registered San Mateo County voter and
meet the following requirements, according
to the Elections Ofce:
Be a Certied Public Accountant; or, pos-
sess a degree from an accredited four-year
institution with a major in accounting or its
equivalent and serve in a senior scal man-
agement position at a private rm, govern-
ment agency or nonprot for at least three
years straight within the last ve years; or,
be certied as a professional internal auditor
with a minimum of 16 semester units or
equivalent in accounting, auditing or
nance; or serve as the county auditor, chief
deputy county auditor or chief assistant
county auditor for at least three years con-
tinuously.
Once elected, the controller must com-
plete at least 40 hours of continuing educa-
tion with half being in governmental
accounting, auditing or related subjects.
According to Raigozas camp, he earned a
bachelors of arts with a double major in
accounting and nance and an MBAin man-
agement information systems from
California State University at Chico. He
worked for the Controllers Ofce for 13
years including leading two separate divi-
sions for more than the required three years.
He is backed by Adler, former controller
Tom Huening and county Supervisor Warren
Slocum.
Galligan said hes open to the possibility
that Raigoza may in fact be qualied but that
the candidate wouldnt share any specic
ways how with him.
The bottom line is I hope he qualies and
we can make a race out of this, Galligan
said.
Tourk called Galligans challenge to
Raigozas qualifications an intimidation
tactic.
Instead of repeated legal threats, Mr.
Galligan should instead focus on convinc-
ing the voters why he as a professional
politician is best suited to be a steward of
the publics precious resources, Tourk
wrote in an email to the Daily Journal.
The candidate ling deadline for the con-
troller position is 5 p.m. Wednesday.

ELECTION
an email on my phone, I kept reading and it
kept bringing in more information, he said.
My jaw started dropping and I started running
around in circles. I called both my parents and
texted Melissa. I was just freaking out.
Neistadt and Loi made the lm for the
Campus MovieFest, which he found out about
in November. Loi came up with the idea for
Manly Man, Sub Citys local superhero who
wasnt invincible. He fought a cold at the
same time he was battling Madame Mayhem.
Every Manly Man sneeze brings Madame
Mayhem closer to defeat while giving
Neistadt a chance to display the special effects
skills he rened in his multimedia classes.
They entered the competition and it received a
Silver Tripod Award for Best Special Effects, a
Best Actor Award for Neistadts portrayal of
Manly Man and the Best Picture Award.
Campus MovieFest informed them it sends
about 30 student lms to the Cannes festival.
Ultimately, it was chosen for Cannes.
The writing of the story was really impor-
tant and the special effects we spent a lot of
time trying to make a visual experience, he
said. I had never done anything like it before.
It was a lot of fun to do. Were not lm students
or anything.
Meanwhile, Loi, also 20, agreed the special
effects are what really made the lm stand out,
along with the story.
We were only given a week to put together
the entire lm, which is pressing for any
movie, she said. Its the rst script Ive writ-
ten for a lm.
The Cannes selection was a huge surprise
for Loi too.
It was totally unexpected, she said.
Originally our idea to participate was just for
having a fun project to do; I never imagined it
would be this big.
Neistadt, a southern California native,
transferred to Caada from California State
University San Marcos because he wanted to
be in Silicon Valley to pursue his dream of
making lms. Neistadts rst name is Sir and,
no, he is not a knight. He attributes the name
to his dad, who is a bit of a jokester. He began
rening his video editing and special effects
skills under Caada faculty, who have worked
at major studios such as Disney, Pixar and
Wildbrain.
Paul Naas, Caada multimedia program
director, said having a lm at Cannes is a
major accomplishment for any lmmaker.
For a student lmmaker to achieve this is
spectacular, he said in a statement. Im
thrilled Wades hard work is being acknowl-
edged. He has a very cinematic eye and sever-
al of the shots in the lm are quite innova-
tive.
So whats behind the lms name?
Once we had most of the lm nished, we
had to think of a name, Neistadt said. We had
all the obvious ones, but Melissa came up
with it. Its a goofy, weird movie that needed a
funny goofy weird word to say sneeze. Its a
Doctor Seuss word.
Neistadt will get to walk the red carpet and
watch the world premiers of the Cannes
Ofcial Selection. Hell also go to workshops
and Q&A sessions. His lm will also be fea-
tured at Universal Studios in Hollywood in
June as part of a three-day red carpet event
where industry professionals host workshops
and network with student lmmakers from
around the country. He plans on transferring
to four-year university in the fall and wants to
ultimately do animation and special effects.
For now, he is working with animation ideas
and wants to do a lot of things in 3-D, along
with incorporating real people with animated
parts.
Neistadt will be in the south of France May
12-26 for the festival. KERFLOOEY can be

National Security Agency Director General Keith Alexander, right, walks into a closed session
of the Senate Intelligence Committee in Washington, D.C.
By Donna Cassata
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON In an extraordinary pub-
lic accusation, the head of the Senate
Intelligence Committee declared on Tuesday
that the CIA interfered with and then tried to
intimidate a congressional investigation into
the agencys possible use of torture in terror
probes during the Bush administration.
The CIA clandestinely removed documents
and searched a computer network set up for
lawmakers, said Sen. Dianne Feinstein in a
long and biting speech on the Senate oor. In
an escalating dispute with an agency she has
long supported, she said the CIA may well
have violated criminal laws and the U.S.
Constitution.
At odds on major contentions, both sides
noted the matter has now been handed to the
Justice Department for further investigation
and potential prosecution. The CIAs inspec-
tor general, David Buckley, rst referred the
matter to Justice, and the CIAs acting counsel
responded by ling a criminal report about
the intelligence committee staff.
I am not taking it lightly, Feinstein said
of the tit-for-tat investigations. I view the
acting counsel generals referral as a potential
effort to intimidate this staff in the interro-
gation investigation.
The dispute between the CIA and senators,
which has been going on privately for more
than ve years, exploded into a public clash
as the California Democrat offered a detailed
account of the Senates secretive dealings
with the CIA in an investigation of post-
Sept. 11 interrogation and detention prac-
tices.
More broadly, all U.S. spy agencies have
drawn intense scrutiny since revelations last
summer about surveillance of Americans by
the National Security Agency. The Obama
administration has struggled to rebuild public
trust since former analyst Edward Snowden
made the disclosures. Feinstein has been one
of the intelligence communitys most ardent
advocates, arguing that the wide surveillance
of peoples electronic and telephone commu-
nications was a necessary counterterrorism
tool.
In the current matter, a long-running dis-
pute has centered on whether waterboarding, a
technique that simulates drowning, and other
harsh interrogation techniques were factors in
aiding the CIAs antiterror efforts and helped
the agency track down Osama bin Laden.
CIA Director John Brennan rejected
Feinsteins accusations, insisting that the
agency was not trying to thwart the commit-
tees work and denying that it had been spy-
ing on the panel or the Senate. He said the
appropriate authorities would look at the mat-
ter further and I defer to them to determine
whether or not there was any violation of law
or principle.
Intrigue at the top: CIA,
Senate feud goes public

CLEARWATER BEACH, Fla.
Republican David Jolly defeated Democrat
Alex Sink on Tuesday in a Tampa-area
House district where President Barack
Obamas health care overhaul got its first
test ahead of Novembers midterm elec-
tions and both sides spent millions audi-
tioning national strategies.
With almost 100 percent of the vote
counted, Jolly had 48.5 percent of the vote
to Sinks 46.7 percent. Libertarian Lucas
Overby had 4.8 percent. The election was
to replace 42-year Republican Rep. CW
Bill Young, who died in October of cancer,
and the evenly divided district had been
considered a toss-up.
The implications of the dueling mes-
sages for the midterm elections inspired
both parties to call in star advocates like
former President Bill Clinton and former
vice presidential candi-
date Paul Ryan, in addi-
tion to blanketing the
district with ads, calls
and mailings. More than
$11 million has been
spent on the race,
according to the
Sunlight Foundation, a
nonprofit group that
tracks government
information.
Jollys election night headquarters in
Clearwater Beach erupted into loud cheers
as it became clear he was the winner. In his
victory speech, Jolly simultaneously
struck a conciliatory tone and expressed
gratitude for his mentor, Young, and
Youngs family. Jolly was introduced by
former Price is Right game show host
Bob Barker, via video. Youngs two adult
sons were also onstage with Jolly, and he
embraced them at the end of his speech.

BEIRUT The number of Syrian children
affected by the civil war in their homeland
has doubled in the past year to at least 5.5
million more than half the countrys chil-
dren with devastating effects on the
health, education and psychological well-
being of an entire generation, the United
Nations childrens agency said Tuesday.
The conict, which enters its fourth year
this month, has unleashed massive suffering
across all segments of Syrian society, but
the impact on children has been especially
acute, according to a new report by UNICEF.
Malnutrition and illness have stunted their
growth; a lack of learning opportunities has
derailed their education; and the bloody trau-
ma of war has left deep psychological scars.
After three years of conict and turmoil,
Syria is now one of the most dangerous
places on earth to be a child, the agency
said. In their thousands, children have lost
lives and limbs, along with virtually every
aspect of their childhood. They have lost
classrooms and teachers, brothers and sis-
ters, friends, caregivers, homes and stabili-
t y.
Millions of young people risk becom-
ing, in effect, a lost generation, UNICEF
said.
Since the conict began, thousands of
videos and photographs of bloodied babies,
lifeless children and bombed out schools in
Syria have provided stark images of the
wars impact on children. But in many ways,
gures provide perhaps the clearest indica-
tion of how sweeping an effect the conict
has on their lives.
UNICEF said that more than 10,000 chil-
dren have been killed in the violence, which
would translate into the highest casualty
rates recorded in any recent conict in the
region. Of those who have survived, thou-
sands have been wounded, lost their home
and schools, and seen family members and
friends killed. That trauma has left around 2
million children in need of psychological
support or treatment, the agency said.
U.N.: 5.5 million Syrian children affected by war
By Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON The Obama administra-
tion said Tuesday its making steady
progress on health care sign-ups, but the
White House needs something close to a
miracle to meet its goal of enrolling 6 mil-
lion people by the end of this month.
It could happen with a sustained surge in
consumer demand and a foolproof website.
But theyre not seeing it yet, and time is
running out.
The Department of Health and Human
Services said more than 940,000 people
signed up during February for private cover-
age under President Barack Obamas health
care law, bringing total sign-ups to 4.2 mil-
lion.
But with open enrollment ending March
31, that means to meet the goal, another
1.8 million people would have to sign up
by the end of the month, an average of
about 60,000 a day.
Thats way above the daily averages for
January and February, which have ranged
between 33,000 and 34,000. The math
seems to be going against the administra-
tion.
Ofcials expect the pace to pick up. The
big question is whether it will be enough to
make up for the technical troubles that par-
alyzed HealthCare.gov much of last fall and
the continuing challenges for several state-
sponsored websites.
The goal of 6 million sign-ups is itself a
lower bar than was originally set. The
Congressional Budget Ofce scaled back its
original target of 7 million because of the
federal websites computer problems.
HealthCare.gov serves 36 states, while 14
states and Washington, D.C., are running
their own sites.

California high-speed rail
turning fans into critics
Editor,
Sue Lemperts Monday column
BARTs 10-year anniversary bash
had this statement: High-speed rail
in California is going to happen.
Just as it has happened in most
European countries, in Japan, China
and the eastern United States. Once
it is built, people will use it, like it
and wonder why there was so much
criticism in the past. Just like BART
to SFO, it might even turn its critics
into fans.
Aside from the fact that anyone
who thinks, ACELA on the U.S. East
Coast is really high-speed rail,
going about 70 mph, really fails to
understand basics. But Lemperts
statement that the California high-
speed rail project might even turn
its critics into fans, simply belies
the facts.
Today, former authority chair,
Judge Quentin Kopp, a huge advo-
cate of the project a few years ago,
now says the project should not be
built. Current Authority Director
Lynn Schenk, voted against
approval of the blended plan, say-
ing it simply was not high-speed
rail Now we have Lt. Gov. Gavin
Newsom, formerly also a huge sup-
porter of the project, saying it
should not be built. Quite simply,
the California high-speed rail proj-
ect is turning former fans into crit-
ics.

Ukraininan comic opera
Editor,
Gilbert and Sullivan would surely
find rich material in todays
Ukrainian farce. For hundreds of
years, the Russian speaking areas
have been part of the Russian sphere
of influence, if not under direct con-
trol. Its Black Sea fleet has been
based there for as long as there has
been a Black Sea fleet. This adjoins
the Russian mainland and to think
such a strategic asset would be
tossed away is to ignore the real
world. Just look at the hue and cry
that went up when Jimmy Carter
intended to return control of the
Panama Canal to well, Panama.
The recent revelations of Victoria
Newland discussing who should and
should not join a coalition govern-
ment (who would dare bug an official
conversation in this day and age)
sounded like she was playing at
selecting the next Mikado of
Ukraine. Who appointed her?
Of course, the presently vacated
President Yanukovych is not of stel-
lar wit and came into office under a
cloud much as our past President
George W. Bush, another less than
adequate intellect who was not up to
the task. The Ukrainian majority
appears to prefer European affilia-
tion rather than that with the
Russian Federation. So be it, but the
overwhelmingly pro-Russian speak-
ing areas prefer another route. Thats
hardly worth fighting about. Let
Crimea go its way. Whats the fuss
all about? So the farce plays on and
its Heres three cheers and one
cheer more for the brave Captain of

Why is he not curious about why

Letters to the editor
W
hile we all limit our show-
ers, turn off the water
while brushing our teeth
and check our irrigation systems to
stem the effects of the governors
drought declaration, there are signi-
cantly heavier water users also look-
ing to conserve.
Our parks and green spaces take up a
lot of water, so it makes an abundant
amount of sense that the city of San
Mateo would host a conservation
workshop last week. And when you
look at the attendance numbers
about 150 people its evident that
conservation is on peoples minds.
The city itself is trying to nd new
ways to meet two goals keep its
parks green while also saving water.
The city pays about $471,000 a year
for irrigation despite the fact that two
of its largest green spaces Central
Park and the Poplar Creek Golf Course
use well water. Still, with the San
Francisco Public Utilities
Commissions request of a 10 percent
voluntary reduction, there are always
new ways to conserve. Some of those
new ways include technology like
soil monitoring systems and weather
sensors but there is also exploration
of reducing water where possible
while still keeping plants alive.
The drought is real, but recent rain
and the possibility that there may be
a wet El Nino weather system during
the coming summer months may have
some people thinking that conserva-
tion is no longer necessary. But think
of it also in larger terms, that the less
we use, the more well have stored for
times we need it while also reducing
our overall costs. And in addition to
the cost savings, conservation is also
key to avoiding disputes between
areas that need it smelt in the Delta
and farmers in the Central Valley.
While it usually takes a crisis to
change behavior, sometimes the
results can be best for the long term.
Individual water users know the drill
and brown lawns are now in style. But
thinking about ways to conserve
water at a municipal and regional
landscape level is at all times a worth-
while and important activity. After
all, as our population grows, we will
only need more of it, not less.
Landscapers key to water conservation
Growing old!
I
havent told myself Im getting older
because I hoped I wouldnt notice.
Ashleigh Brilliant.
I remember, some years ago, seeing myself in a mirror
shortly after I got up in the morning and startling
myself. It made me think of Lady Jane in Gilbert and
Sullivans Patience. My charms are ripe, and already
they are decaying. And then she laments in song:
Silvered is the raven hair. Spreading is the parting
straight. Mottled is the complexion fair. Halting is the
youthful gait. Stouter than I used to be. Still more cor-
pulent grow I. There will
be too much of me. In the
coming by and by.
So now that Im a senior
senior citizen, I look back
and laugh at my concerns
at that ripe old age of 20
plus years ago. When Im
with my friends and rela-
tives that are near my age
or even older (yes, its
possible), thoughts come
to mind like: So here we
are having reached that
stage of wisdom, feeling
we have learned a lot in all
of our years of life and hoping that theres someone
interested in what we have to say, trying to pretend
nothing has changed but facing losses of various kinds
at an increasing rate, looking to each other for commu-
nity and support but feeling oddly out of place in a soci-
ety that worships youth and disdains old age, realizing
an increased respect for those who have traveled this
road before us, and hoping that as we approach the end
of the journey, we can travel with grace and dignity.
Even though we had parents who had passed this way,
most of us are propelled into old age before we have any
real idea how to respond and relate to it. In some ways,
its like adolescence. Here we are, we think, thrust
into this unfamiliar stage of life, wondering how to
handle this changing body, anxious about what the
future will bring, unsure of how to adjust to the losses
that are inevitable and wishing we could remain in
familiar territory.
When we were young, most of us heard little about
growth and change in adults. We were under the impres-
sion that the stages of life were baby, child, teen and
adult. Once a person reached the magic age of, say, 30,
we thought that was it as far as growth and change were
concerned. But now we know that adults go through pas-
sages, too, that growth and change are necessary to a
complete and fulfilling life no matter what our age. We
know that if we go through the stages of adulthood
meeting the challenges and coming out better people as
a result, we grow into old age much wiser, more loving,
more complete and better able to cope and adjust. If we
neglect to open ourselves to new ways of being and to
new ideas, we become like stone hard and cold and
resistant monuments to inflexibility and stagnation.
As Judith Viorst wrote in Necessary Losses: While
good health and good friends and good luck and a
good income certainly make aging easier to take, it
is our attitude toward our losses as much as the nature of
our losses which will determine the quality of our old
age.
We need to let go of many things as we make the tran-
sition like forever trying to make situations (and
people) turn out the way we wish them to; the idea that
we can change the world; all the striving; roles that we
were playing according to societys and other peoples
expectations; pretense; and finally the toughest one
the belief we are immortal. Then the growth and change
of the late stages of our lives can come about the
kind that move us more toward wisdom and integrity and
acceptance. As Gordon Livingston wrote in Too Soon
Old and Too Late Smart: Our constant challenge is not
to seek perfection in ourselves and others, but to find
ways to be happy in an imperfect world. We are impeded
in this effort if we cling to an idealized vision of the
past that ensures dissatisfaction with the present.
And finally, as Eda LeShan wrote in her wonderful
book, Its Better to be Over the Hill than Under It:
What I hope is that you feel thankful to be alive
because you still feel like a person, no matter what the
changes. At any age there is only one reason to be
thankful to be alive and that is that you love your clos-
est companion, yourself, and you know who you are and
you are glad to be who you are.
Ashleigh Brilliant covers it pretty well: Inside every
old person is a young person wondering what hap-
pened.

Big movers

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Without any big economic news or
blowout company earnings to respond
to, investors found little to get excited
about Tuesday and sent the stock market
lower for the second day in a row.
A few companies grabbed headlines
for posting poor quarterly results or
consummating long-running merger
talks Tuesday. But the broader market
barely budged for much of the day, then
closed slightly lower. Investors didnt
see enough that they liked to drive up a
market that hit three record highs last
week.
Its a market that is looking for
some direction overall, said J.J.
Kinahan, chief strategist with TD
Ameritrade. Weve had such a nice run,
I think youre seeing people take some
prots.
The Standard & Poors 500 index
slipped 9.54 points, or 0.5 percent, to
close at 1,867.63. The Dow Jones
industrial average lost 67.43 points, or
0.4 percent, to 16,351.25. The Nasdaq
composite fell 27.26 points, or 0.6
percent, to 4,307.19.
The S&P 500 and the Nasdaq are both
up for the year, though they lost some
ground from the start of the week. The
S&P 500 is up 1 percent, while the
Nasdaq is up 3.1 percent. The Dow is
down 1.4 percent so far this year.
General Motors, Mens Wearhouse
and American Eagle Outfitters were
among the stocks in focus Tuesday.
GM dropped $1.91, or 5.1 percent, to
$35.18 on news that a congressional
committee is investigating the way the
automaker and a federal safety agency
handled a deadly ignition switch prob-
lem in compact cars.
The stocks of teen retailers American
Eagle Outtters and Urban Outtters
took a beating.
American Eagle tumbled $1.11, or
7.8 percent, to $13.10 after the store
chain issued a scal rst-quarter outlook
that fell short of Wall Streets expecta-
tions. The company also reported an 89
percent slide in its fourth-quarter net
income as winter storms weighed on
sales.
Urban Outtters fell $1.60, or 4.3
percent, to $35.91 after reporting its
own results.
Investors cheered word that Mens
Wearhouse agreed to buy Jos. A. Bank
for $1.8 billion after months of on-
again, off-again talks. Mens
Wearhouse rose $2.57, or 4.7 percent,
to $57.14. Jos. A. Bank climbed
$2.39, or 3.9 percent, to $64.22.
The declines were broad. Nine of the
10 sectors in the S&P 500 index fell,
led by energy stocks. The one sector
that rose, consumer staples, eked out a
gain of just 0.01 percent. Stocks of
those companies, which make con-
sumer staple goods like soft drinks and
detergents, tend to be in favor when
investors are feeling cautious and want
low-risk investments that produce
steady income. Among consumer sta-
ples companies, PepsiCo rose $1.08,
or 1.3 percent, to $82.81.
McDonalds had the biggest gain
among companies in the S&P 500
index, rising $3.58, or 3.8 percent, to
$98.78. The stock is rebounding after
slumping a day earlier.
Some other companies also mounted
comebacks.
J.C. Penney rose 25 cents, or 3 per-
cent, to $8.67 after analysts at
Citigroup upgraded the department
store chain, praising the retailers
efforts to recover from a botched over-
haul that alienated longtime customers.
The Labor Department said Tuesday
that employers posted 3.9 million job
openings in January, up 1.5 percent
from December, a sign that hiring
should remain steady in coming
months. However, the increase fell
short of what the market was expecting.
Investors are watching for any signs
the job market is strengthening as they
try to gauge how the Federal Reserve
will manage its economic stimulus
efforts. The central bank is expected to
continue paring its bond purchases,
which are aimed at keeping long-term
loan rates low and encouraging borrow-
ing and investing. But if economic data
signal that the economy is weakening,
the Fed could opt to keep the stimulus
spigot open.
Stocks end slightly lower for a second day
California mulls how to regulate driverless cars
LOS ANGELES Sooner or later, consumers will be
able to buy cars that rely on computers not the owner
to do the driving.
With that in mind, the California Department of Motor
Vehicles held an initial public hearing Tuesday as it puz-
zles through how to regulate the publics use of the tech-
nology that is still being tested.
Among the complex questions ofcials wanted to
unravel:
How will the state know the cars are safe?
Does a driver even need to be behind the wheel?
Can manufacturers mine data from onboard computers to
make product pitches based on where the car goes or set
insurance rates on how it is driven?
Once the stuff of science ction, driverless cars could be
commercially available by decades end. Before then, the
DMV wants to decide how to integrate the cars often
called autonomous vehicles onto public roads.
Three other states have passed driverless car laws, but
those rules mostly focus on testing. Californias
Legislature passed a law in 2012 that mandated rules on
testing and public operation, and the DMV expects with-
in weeks to nalize regulations dictating what companies
must do to test the technology on public roads.
EBay CEO Donahoes
total pay for 2013 sinks 53 percent
EBay CEO John Donahoes compensation for 2013
sank 53 percent compared to 2012, when the e-commerce
company gave its leader more than $23 million in stock
awards. EBay also chopped a performance-based bonus
payment for Donahoe and other executives. It says the
companys nancial performance last year and its posi-
tioning at the start of 2014 missed expectations.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK If youre puzzled
why the U.S. stock market has risen
so fast in a slow-growing economy,
consider one of its star performers:
DirecTV.
The satellite TV provider has done a
great job slashing expenses and
expanding abroad, and that has helped
lift its earnings per share dramatical-
ly in five years. But dont be fooled.
The main reason for the EPS gain has
nothing to do with how well it runs
its business. Its because it has
engaged in a massive stock buyback
program, halving the number of its
shares in circulation by purchasing
them from investors.
Spreading earnings over fewer
shares translates into higher EPS a
lot higher in DirecTVs case. Instead
of an 88 percent rise to $2.58, EPS
nearly quadrupled to $5.22.
Companies have been spending big
on buybacks since the 1990s. Whats
new is the way buybacks have exag-
gerated the health of many compa-
nies, suggesting through EPS that
they are much better at generating
profits than they actually are. The dis-
tortion is ironic. Critics say the
obsessive focus on buybacks has led
companies to put off replacing plant
and equipment, funding research and
development, and generally doing the
kind of spending needed to produce
rising EPS for the long run.
Its boosted the stock market and
flattered earnings, but its very short
term, says David Rosenberg, former
chief economist at Merrill Lynch,
now at money manager Gluskin Sheff.
He calls buybacks a sugar high.

NEWYORK Looks like the best
suitor won.
After an extended chase that includ-
ed overtures on both sides and flirta-
tions with other parties, Mens
Wearhouse and Jos. A. Bank will
combine to create the nations
fourth-largest menswear retail chain.
Mens Wearhouse Inc. said Tuesday
that its buying its rival Jos. A. Bank
Clothiers Inc. for $1.8 billion. The
company will pay $65 a share, a 5
percent premium to Jos. A. Banks
Monday closing price of $61.83.
Jos. A. Bank also said its terminat-
ing its deal to acquire the parent com-
pany of Eddie Bauer, which sells
rugged outerwear.
On Tuesday, shares of both compa-
nies rose on the news: Mens
Wearhouses stock was up nearly 5
percent to $57.14, while shares of
Jos. A. Bank increased nearly 4 per-
cent to $64.22.
The acquisition comes after
months of the two chains publicly
fighting over who would acquire
whom. Industry watchers had specu-
lated that a merger was inevitable
given the challenges the companies
face in the competitive menswear
landscape.

WASHINGTON An innovative
hepatitis C drug that was only recent-
ly hailed as a breakthrough treatment
is facing skepticism from some health
care providers, as they consider
whether it is worth the $1,000-a-pill
price set by Foster City-based Gilead
Sciences Inc.
A panel of California medical
experts voted Monday that Gileads
Sovaldi represents a low value treat-
ment, considering its cost compared
with older drugs for the blood-borne
virus.
The vote was part of a broader
review of new hepatitis C drugs by the
California Technology Assessment
Forum, an insurance industry-afliated
group that assesses the costs and
effectiveness of new medical treat-
ments. The group is expected to issue
a nal report next month on Sovaldi
and another new hepatitis C drug,
Olysio from Johnson & Johnson.
Doctors have long sought more
effective, palatable treatments for
hepatitis C, the liver-destroying virus
carried by an estimated 3 million to 4
million Americans. Until late last
year, the standard treatments required
taking up to 12 pills a day, alongside
antiviral drug injections that can
cause u-like symptoms, an approach
that cured only about 75 percent of
patients.
Gilead Sciences drug, approved by
U.S. regulators in December, was
quickly embraced by physicians based
on its once-a-day pill regimen and
increased effectiveness, curing
between 80 and 90 percent of patients.
But some patient groups and health
providers are beginning to question
the cost of that benet .
The combination of the huge
patient population and the price of the
pills is creating real tension in the
system about the potential affordabil-
ity of these drugs, said Dr. Steve
Pearson, who is leading the California
groups hepatitis drug assessment.

With the Northern California basketball
tournament kicking off Wednesday, its safe
to say there are no bad teams at this level.
As such, most teams will keep the focus
on themselves and not so much on who
their opponent is. At this point of the sea-
son, no team can make drastic changes to
match up with a Nor Cal opponent. Its all
about executing what a team is most suc-
cessful doing and then riding that to a win or
a loss.
There are seven San Mateo County teams
competing for a spot in the state title game,
with four of them receiving home games in
the rst round, while Serra and Burlingame
will host second-round games Saturday.
All rst-round games begin at 7 p.m.
Wednesday.
Division I
No. 11 Menlo-Atherton (18-9) at
No. 6 Rodriquez-Faireld (26-3)
The Mustangs won the Monticello Empire
League championship with a 9-1 record.
They lost in the Sac-Joaquin Section cham-
pionship game, 96-68 to Jesuit-
Carmichael. the Mustangs went 4-2
against Nor Cal-qualifying teams and had a
win over Riordan. Rodriguez is led by 6-
foot senior guard Rishod Abraham, who is
averaging nearly 18 points per game. Hes
gone over the 20-point mark 12 times this
season, with a season-high 40 against
Napa. M-A is led by the outside-inside
tandem of Royce Branning and Oliver
Bucka. Branning appears to be nding his
stroke at the right time following a mid-sea-
son slump. He scored 21 points in the
Bears Central Coast Section seminal win
over Homestead, with Bucka adding 11.
M-A comes into the game averaging 50
points per contest, while allowing 44. The
Bears like to control the pace with a patient
half-court offense and will need to slow
down a Mustangs squad that is averaging 63
points per game.

Hillsdale was firing on all cylinders
Tuesday in a 10-1 win over Sacred Heart
Cathedral.
The Knights (3-2) banged out 11 hits in
support of Ro Mahantys rst varsity win,
as the junior right-hander dealt for six
innings of two-hit ball.
Not bad for a kid who only starting pitch-
ing last year in the Hillsdale frosh-soph
ranks. But now, Mahanty gures to be one
of the three mainstays in the Knights
pitching rotation along with senior right-
hander Chandler Vieira and junior right-han-
der Adam Schembri heading into Peninsula
Athletic League play next Tuesday against
El Camino.
[Mahanty] was lights out, Hillsdale
manager James Madison said.
He kept them off-balance and hes get-
ting better every time he steps on that
mound. Hes one of those guys where you
think you know who your aces are and he
comes up in one or two outings and kind of
shakes up the rotation.
Coming off his varsity debut in which he
dazzled for four no-hit innings against
Galileo, Mahanty retired the rst seven bat-
ters he faced Tuesday. The right-hander went
on to strike out six, including the nal three
batters he faced. He also induced eight
groundouts, the highlight of which came in
the fourth on an efcient inning-ending dou-
ble play.
Once I get in that rhythm, I really have
just got to work on getting that rst pitch,
Mahanty said. Once I get that rst pitch
strike, I feel like I can throw anything with
the ultimate condence that I want to.

As Chris Miguel goes, so goes Caada
baseball.
With a 10-1 win over West Valley,
Tuesday, the Colts have won six straight.
During that time, Miguel a redshirt fresh-
man out of Sacred Heart Cathedral has
ascended to the cleanup spot where he has
gone 11 for 25 with 10 RBIs during the win
streak.
After riding out a rough patch in which
they lost four of ve heading into Coast
Conference play, the Colts are currently tied
atop the Coast Pacic with Ohlone at 5-1.
I just feel like were all just having good
chemistry right now, Miguel said. In the
beginning of the season it was kind of
rough. But were starting to get good chem-
istry right now. Our lineup is looking good
up and down.
With Caada hitting .276 as a team,
Miguel has been making the most of his
opportunities. The Daly City native ranks
fourth in the state with 20 RBIs and is sec-
ond in the Coast Conference only to Ohlone
leadoff hitter Larry Price.
The 5-9 freshman began the year hitting
in the No. 7 spot in the Colts batting order.
But because of his outstanding output,
Miguel was promoted to the cleanup spot
March 6 against Monterey, where he has hit
for the past three games.
Ive just been feeling really comfortable
and my coach has been talking to me about
hitting the fourth spot, so I took up the
challenge, and yeah, I like it, Miguel said.
A four-year varsity standout at Sacred
Heart Cathedral, Miguel earned All-West
Catholic Athletic League honors in each his
junior and senior season, but as a pitcher.
He had several games on the mound
where he carried the whole team on his
back, Sacred Heart Cathedral manager
Brian Morgan said. Hes kind of that kid.

SAN FRANCISCO Jonathan Martin is
returning to familiar territory, months after
he accused a teammate of bullying and left
the Miami Dolphins.
The offensive tackle is
headed back to the Bay
Area to play for Jim
Harbaugh.
Martin was traded from
Miami to the San
Francisco 49ers on
Tuesday night, reuniting
the lineman with his col-
lege coach at Stanford
and a support staff he
knows so well. In fact, Harbaugh publicly
expressed his support of Martin last year.
The Dolphins announced the move late on
the first day of NFL free agency. San
Francisco then conrmed the trade, saying
only that it would send an undisclosed draft
choice to Miami and that Martin still must
pass a physical to complete the deal.
Big news.... Beyond Blessed ...
Opportunities are few in the NFL... Cant
wait to get to work (hashtag)9erEmpire,
Martin posted on Twitter.
The 24-year-old Martins move cross
country brings him back to Northern
California, but he is already in town back
on the Stanford campus taking classes.
This is great for him to get back on the
eld and hes in Palo Alto right now. It
couldnt be much better, his agent, Ken
Zuckerman, said in a phone interview. I just
think everyone wanted this to happen.
Harbaugh knows Jonathan, I think the
Dolphins were compensated and Jonathan
wants to get back on the eld. Its a good
day.
An investigation for the NFL determined
last month that Dolphins guard Richie
Incognito and two other offensive linemen
engaged in persistent harassment of Martin,
another offensive lineman and an assistant
trainer.
The trade capped a busy rst day for the

GOODYEAR, Ariz. Buster Posey had a
three-run homer off Tony Cingrani among
his three hits, leading the San Francisco
Giants over the Cincinnati Reds 8-5
Tuesday.
Posey added an RBI double and a single
as the Giants overcame a three-run deficit.
Posey has been working on some
things to get himself back on track or
where he thinks he should be, Giants
manager Bruce Bochy said. It is important
to get his timing and confidence, not that
he didnt have confidence.
The Reds scored three quick runs off Tim
Hudson.
Todd Frazier doubled home two runs in
the first. Billy Hamilton doubled home
Skip Schumaker, who
started in left field, giv-
ing the Reds the lead after
two innings.
Hunter Pence started
his second game after
resting a sore shoulder.
He tripled after Poseys
home run.
Ehire Adrianza hit his
second home run of the
spring, a two-run shot off Cingrani, who
allowed six runs after pitching seven
scoreless innings, including the first two
innings of this appearance.
Adriana is relatively new to switch hit-
t i ng.
Adrianza has had a nice spring, Bochy
said. Hes been balanced from both sides
of the plate. He has been here awhile. He
came in early to get ready for camp.
Schumaker, who signed a two-year deal
with the Reds in November, doubled and hit
a solo home run off Hudson. He is hitting
.550 this spring.
STARTING TIME
Gi ants: Hudson allowed three runs in 4
1-3 innings on five hits and three walks.
They were the first runs he allowed this
spring. He is the second Giants starter to
give up a run. Ryan Volgesong had allowed
the only six runs against Giants starters in
31 innings until Todd Frazier doubled to
drive in a pair Tuesday. Hudson pitched five
scoreless innings coming into the game.
I was able to get some good work in. It
wasnt a walk in the park but it was what I
needed. I got to run around the bases a little
bit, Hudson said. They laid off some
pretty good pitches and they made me pay.
I started making better pitches after I set-

The veteran pitcher had a double and sin-
gle at the plate.
Reds: Cingrani, left-hander, had pitched
five scoreless innings this spring, includ-
ing three against the Giants and Hudson on
Thursday. But the Giants chased him after 2
2-3 innings with eight hits. He allowed six
runs on eight hits, five for extra bases.
Cingrani is a guy working on a break-
ing ball and his and changeup, Cincinnati
manager Bryan Price said. Youre not see-
ing the same pitching philosophy that you
have in the past. We all agree he has to
develop those pitches. There is not a better
place to do it. You hate to lose a game when
guys are working on their stuff but it will
pay dividends down the road.

OAKLAND Jordan Crawford scored 19
points, Andrew Bogut had 15 points and 10
rebounds and the surging Golden State
Warriors routed the Dallas Mavericks 108-
85 on Tuesday night for their fth straight
win.
Klay Thompson added 14 points to help
the Warriors go ahead by 24 points early in
the fourth quarter and create more space
behind them in the crowded Western
Conference standings. Golden State (41-24)
is sixth in the West, three games ahead of
Dallas (38-27) and Memphis (37-26).
Former Warriors fan favorite Monta Ellis
scored 15 points, and Dirk Nowitzki had 12
points and six rebounds in a disappointing
display by Dallas. The Warriors outshot the
Mavericks 51.2 percent to 36.6 percent and
outrebounded Dallas 46 to 40, showing no
signs of slowing down anytime soon.
The Warriors are 10-2 since the All-Star
break and a season-high 17 games over
.500. After winning 10 consecutive games
earlier this season, Golden State is gaining
steam again.
The Warriors are four games behind the
Los Angeles Clippers (45-20) in the Pacic
Division. The Warriors and Clippers meet
for the nal time this season on Wednesday
night in Los Angeles.

PEORIA, Ariz. Sonny Gray retired
the first 11 in four scoreless innings and
Jed Lowrie hit his first home run of the
spring for Oakland on Tuesday before the
San Diego Padres rallied for a 6-5 victory
over the Athletics.
Gray allowed only Wi l l Venables
ground single while striking out two with
no walks in 45 pitches. He was helped by
Sam Fulds sliding catch of Alexi
Amaristas liner to left in the third.
It was a significant improvement from
Grays last start, when he gave up four
runs on five hits in one inning while not
throwing his curveball or sinker.
I thought my curveball was good today
and my sinker, I was able to get a lot of
groundballs, said Gray, who indicated he
treated it like a regular-
season game.
Lowries two-run shot
to right off Ian Kennedy
came in a three-run first.
Coco Crisp, who had
been 1 for 13, doubled
twice and drove in a run
and John Jaso added an
RBI double for the As .
Kennedy yielded four
runs and eight hits, including four dou-
bles, in four innings.
Fastball was a little up today,
Kennedy said. Changeup is not quite
there yet. Curveball feels good. Overall,
Im glad its not quite the regular season
yet.
Alex Dickerson hit a three-run homer off
Philip Humber in a four-run seventh for
the Padres.

He played the game very aggres-
sively. And he had an upside to him
because hes a strong kid. Chris is a
short, stocky guy, but hes not afraid
of anybody. That was the thing I liked
about Chris right off the bat. In our
league we face outstanding players on
every team and he stood right up to all
of them on the mound. He was the
leader on our team, for sure.
Miguel played corner ineld for The
Fightin Irish for three season, but it
wasnt until he arrived at Caada prior
to the 2013 season that Colts manager
Tony Lucca asked him convert to a
position player full time.
Heading into the 2013 campaign,
however, Caada was stacked at the
corners, with first baseman Kevin
McGovern and the teams eventual
Triple Crown winner Drew Vinisi at
third base. So, Miguel took a redshirt
and spent the time honing his skills at
the hot corner.
He did really well (in high school)
as a pitcher, Lucca said. When he got
here, I knew all about that stuff but I
liked him better as a hitter and a third
baseman. I liked his swing. I liked
the aggressiveness out of him.
And even though Miguels elding
percentage is a train wreck this season
due to his committing 13 errors thus
far, Lucca said that isnt indicative of
his freshmans soft hands and defen-
sive potential going forward.
Hes solid over there (at third
base), Lucca said. And obviously
hes swinging the bat for us.
Caada actually boasts a trio of
standouts who graduated from Sacred
Heart Prep. Sophomore center elder
Maurice Fuller who, according to
Morgan, made one of the greatest
defensive plays hes ever seen while
patrolling center for the Fightin Irish
is currently pacing the Colts in bat-
ting average (.386), hits (22), and
steals (10). Sophomore second base-
man Dominic Deesta is also off to a
strong start, currently hitting .297 for
Caada.
I feel like were denitely an offen-
sive-minded type of team, Miguel
said. We do denitely put emphasis
on our defense and pitching, but were
more offensive minded.

49ers, who lost to the Super Bowl
champion Seattle Seahawks in the
NFC championship game.
Martin left the Dolphins in late
October, underwent counseling for
emotional issues and alleged he was
harassed by teammates. Incognito was
then suspended for the final eight
games.
We feel that this move is in the
best interests of all parties involved,
Dolphins general manager Dennis
Hickey said. We wish Jonathan
well.
A three-month investigation deter-
mined Incognito and two teammates
engaged in persistent harassment
directed at Martin, another offensive
lineman and an assistant trainer.
After a report on the investigation
was released last month, the Dolphins
red offensive line coach Jim Turner
and longtime trainer Kevin ONeill.
Incognito and guard John Jerry, who
was also implicated in the report,
became free agents Tuesday and arent
expected to play for the Dolphins
again.
Incognito has recently received
treatment in the wake of the scandal.
He sent tweets in recent weeks that
varied dramatically in tone, including
a rant blasting Martin that quickly
went viral.
Mart i ns departure from the
Dolphins had been expected. Owner
Stephen Ross said in January that
he didnt expect Martin to play for
the team again.
The investigation for the NFL found
a pattern of harassment on the
Dolphins, with Martin the primary
target of vicious taunts and racist
insults that occurred almost daily. The
report said teammates threatened to
rape Martins sister, called him a long
list of slurs and bullied him for not
being black enough. Martin is
black and Incognito is white.
The troubled relationship between
Martin and Incognito drew national
scrutiny and stirred a debate about bul-
lying. Martin said he tried to be
friends with Incognito despite their
diverse backgrounds.
Martin was a classics major at
Stanford, while Incognito, 30, was
kicked off his team at Nebraska and
went on to develop a reputation as one
of the NFLs dirtiest players.

first with nothing to show for it, the Knights went on to
score in every inning thereafter.
Even though Hillsdale entered the game batting .294 as
a team, Madison said the team hasnt been performing to
its potential at the plate.
Weve really been struggling to swing the bats as well
as we want to, Madison said. Weve just been working
on it just grinding.
The grind paid off Tuesday as every Hillsdale starter con-
tributed a knock to the hit parade.
Hillsdale got on the board in the second against Sacred
Heart Cathedral starter Diego Gonzalez. After Taran Poss
led off with a single, Vieira reached on an infield error.
Darian Wolff laid down a bunt that went for a single to load
the bases. Then Mahanty lined a two-run single to center,
scoring Poss and Vieira. After a sacrifice bunt by Riki
Urata, Wolff got thrown out at the plate on an Andrew
Yarak single. But cleanup hitter Conner Wallace came up
with a clutch single to score Mahanty. Yarak then scored
on a wild pitch to give Hillsdale a 4-0 lead.
In the top of the third, Sacred Heart Cathedral scored its
only run of the afternoon. Joe Rinaldi was hit by a pitch
then moved to second on a two-out walk to Justin Marquez.
Senior first baseman Tyler Martinez followed with an RBI
double to left to score Rinaldi, trimming Hillsdales lead
to 4-1.
In the bottom of the frame, however, the Knights got it
back and then some. With SHC junior right-hander Matt
Carlin on in relief, sweet-swinging lefty Anthony Leary
sparked a rally with a one-out single. Poss walked. After
Leary advanced to third on a wild pitch, Poss stole second,
causing an errant throw into center field by the SHC catch-
er which allowed Leary to score. Vieira followed with an
RBI double to plate Poss, staking Hillsdale to a 6-1 lead.
In the bottom of the fourth, Urata was hit by a pitch to
lead off the inning then stole second. With two outs,
Jordan Mann singled to left to score Urata, giving the
Knights a 7-1 lead.
Facing SHC reliever Ramiro Gonzalez in the fifth,
Hillsdale drew three straight one-out walks to Vieira, Wolff
and Mahanty to load the bases. Urata cashed in with a two-
RBI single to center to scoring Vieira and Wolff, giving
the Knights a 9-1 lead.
In the sixth, the Knights once again loaded the bases.
Wallace was hit by a pitch to lead off the frame, Mann
walked and Leary was hit by a pitch. With junior right-han-
der Nick Powell into the game for SHC, Vieira drew an RBI
walk to score Yarak, capping the days scoring.
I dont think we played particularly well, Sacred Heart
Catherdral manager Brian Morgan said. But I think
Hillsdale did and sometimes you just have to tip your hat
and say they were the better team today.

Montgomery captured the North Bay
League crown with a 9-1 mark. The
Vikings lost in the North Coast Section
seminals to Concord. Del Oro won the
Sierra Foothill League title. The Golden
Eagles lost in the semis of the Sac-Joaquin
Section tournament. Montgomery has
proven to be quite the road team, having
compiled a 12-1 record away from home this
season. Serra has accomplished more
this season than anyone could have imag-
ined. The Padres always-tenacious defense
has kept them in games and, when their
perimeter shots are falling, they are a tough
out. Center Trevor Brown has been,
according to coach Chuck Rapp, an unsung
hero this season. At 6-1, Brown is playing
out of position at center, but has a nose for
the basket. He has provided crucial inside
scoring for Serra this season, a year in
which the frontcourt has not been a Serra
strength.
Division III
No. 10 Vanden-Faireld (19-11) at No. 7
Aragon (20-9)
Vanden was the champion of the Solano
County Athletic Conference with a 9-1
record. The Vikings lost in the seminals
of the Sac-Joaquin Section tournament.
Aragon nished in a tie for second with
Mills at 9-3 in the Peninsula Athletic
League South Division. The Dons went
on to capture their rst CCS title in 20
years, downing Valley Christian 61-55
Saturday. Vanden comes into the game
averaging 61 points. DeMarre Walker is
the Vikings leading scorer at just under 17
points per game, but they have seven play-
ers averaging ve points or more per con-
test. Vanden could be a match-up night-
mare for the Dons as the Vikings feature 12
players 6-feet tall or taller. Aragon,
which averages 63 points a game, will rely
heavily on its Triplets: point guard Alex
Manu (16 points per game), Toby
Liebergesell (16 ppg) and Kevin Hahn (13
ppg), who rarely come out of the game.
Jacob Andriola filled in for Kono
Filimoehala-Egan at center and came up
with a few key rebounds in the CCS title
game. Guard Trevor Pagaduan averages 8
points per game, but is tough and fearless
and usually one of the Dons main targets on
the fast break. The Dons have shown
they can win in a variety of ways and may
have one of the more versatile and basket-
ball-savvy trio in Manu, Liebergesell and
Hahn.
No. 12 Miramonte-Orinda (16-12)/No. 5
Faireld (25-6) winner at No.4 Burlingame
(26-4), 6 p.m. Saturday
Miramonte nished fourth in the Diablo
Foothill League with a 6-6 record. The
Matadors lost in the second round of the
NCS tournament. Faireld nished sec-
ond behind Vanden in the Solano County
Athletic Conference. The Falcons lost in
the NCS championship game.
Demoriaye Hart-Spikes leads Faireld with
17 points per game. Burlingame won two
straight Open Division games after drop-
ping their opener to Riordan and, as long as
Frankie Ferraris ankle holds up, the
Panthers are a threat to anyone in the brack-
et. The Panthers are another team with a
perfect inside-outside combo in 6-8 center
Nick Loew and Ferrari. Justin Gutang pro-
vides that much-needed third scorer, while
Robby Baumgarten and Kevin Abuyaghi can
provide instant offense off the bench.
Division IV
No. 14 Marshall-SF (17-12) at No. 3 Half
Moon Bay (24-5)
Marshall nished third in the Academic
Athletic Association. The Phoenix fell
to Lincoln, 65-38, in the San Francisco
Section title game. Half Moon Bay won
the PAL North Division title and nished
sixth of eight teams in the CCS Open
Division, going 2-2. Half Moon Bay
needs to nd a consistent third option in its
offense. Center Rico Nuo was named the
PAL North Division Player of the Year and
guard Corey Cilia was a rst-team selection,
but the Cougars have not had that third scor-
ing threat to turn to when Nuo and Cilia are
keyed on. Chase DeFrane is averaging 7.5
points, Tommy Nuo averages 6.9 and E.J.
Madriaga is averaging 6.6 are the three
main contenders to provide a scoring
punch.
No.10 Colfax (17-13) at No.7 Sacred Heart
Prep (20-7)
Colfax nished third in the Pioneer Valley
League standings before making a run to the
Sac-Joaquin Section semifinals. The
Gators tied for the West Bay Athletic League
championship with Pinewood. They went
on to capture the CCS title Saturday. The
Falcons are averaging 44 points per game
this season and can go 6-4, 6-5, 6-6 in the
frontcourt. SHP has relied heavily on the
contributions of Corbin Koch and James
McLean this season but, during the play-
offs, a number of other players have stepped
up and contributed. Mason Randall was huge
in the CCS nals scoring 15 in the win
over Harker.
Girls basketball
Division IV
No.9 Cardinal Newman-Santa Rosa (23-7)
at No. 8 Menlo School (18-11)
Cardinal Newman tied for the North Bay
League championship with Santa Rosa.
The Cardinals lost in the second round of
the NCS tournament. The Knights n-
ished in third in the WBAL Foothill
Division, but went on to win their second
straight CCS title. The Cardinals come in
averaging 50 points per game, but had
seven games of 60 points or more.
Menlo comes in averaging 46.6 points per
game The Knights need a full-team effort
to win on most nights. Sophomore guard
Hannah Paye is the only player averaging
double digits in scoring. Freshman Sam
Erisman is coming into her own, while
Donya Dehnad gives the Knights a physical
presence on the oor.

TRANSACTIONS
Raiders keep McFadden,
sign OL Rodger Saffold
ALAMEDA The Oakland
Raiders opened free agency on
Tuesday by agreeing to a ve-year
contract with offensive lineman
Rodger Saffold and keeping oft-
injured running back Darren
McFadden on a $4 million, one-
year deal.
But the day was just as notable
for the players who left town. Left
tackle Jared Veldheer and defensive
end Lamarr Houston, considered
building blocks in the rebuilding
plan, signed as free agents with
Arizona and Chicago, respectively.
Also, last years leading rusher
Rashad Jennings said on Twitter
that he was ying to New York and
was looking forward to signing a
deal with the Giants.
After two years of being ham-
strung by bad contracts that left lit-
tle salary cap room, general man-
ager Reggie McKenzie was able to
spend for the rst time with about
$60 million in cap room at the
start of the league year.
49ers to acquire QB
Blaine Gabbert from Jaguars
SANTA CLARA The San
Francisco 49ers have agreed to
acquire quarterback Blaine Gabbert
from the Jacksonville Jaguars for a
sixth-round draft pick, apparently
nding a capable backup for Colin
Kaepernick.
The teams made the announce-
ment Tuesday at the start of free
agency, and the 49ers said the deal
would be complete once Gabbert
passes a physical. Gabbert started
the first three games for
Jacksonville last season before
being benched in favor of Chad
Henne, re-signed to a two-year con-
tract worth $8 million Friday.

Chinese Cuisine
By Mary Clare Jalonick
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON Would Parmesan
by any other name be as tasty atop
your pasta? A ripening trade battle
might put that to the test.
As part of trade talks, the European
Union wants to ban the use of
European names like Parmesan, feta
and Gorgonzola on cheese made in the
United States.
The argument is that the American-
made cheeses are shadows of the origi-
nal European varieties and cut into
sales and identity of the European
cheeses. The Europeans say Parmesan
should only come from Parma, Italy,
not those familiar green cylinders that
American companies sell. Feta should
only be from Greece, even though feta
isnt a place. The EU argues it is so
closely connected to Greece as to be
identied as an inherently Greek prod-
uct.
So, a little hard-grated cheese for
your pasta? It doesnt have quite the
same ring as Parmesan.
U.S. dairy producers, cheesemakers
and food companies are all ghting the
idea, which they say would hurt the $4
billion domestic cheese industry and
endlessly confuse consumers.
Its really stunning that the
Europeans are trying to claw back
products made popular in other coun-
tries, says Jim Mulhern, president of
the National Milk Producers
Federation, which represents U.S.
dairy farmers.
The European Union would not say
exactly what it is proposing or even
whether it will be discussed this week
as a new round of talks on an EU-
United States free trade agreement
opens in Brussels.
European Commission spokesman
Roger Waite would only say that the
question is an important issue for the
EU.
Thats clear from recent agreements
with Canada and Central America,
where certain cheese names were
restricted unless the cheese came from
Europe. Under the Canadian agree-
ment, for example, new feta products
manufactured in Canada can only be
marketed as feta-like or feta-style, and
they cant use Greek letters or other
symbols that evoke Greece.
Though they have not laid out a pub-
lic proposal, the EU is expected to
make similar attempts to restrict mar-
keting of U.S.-made cheeses, possibly
including Parmesan, Asiago,
Gorgonzola, feta, fontina, grana,
Muenster, Neufchatel and Romano.
And it may not be just cheese. Other
products could include bologna, Black
Forest ham, Greek yogurt, Valencia
oranges and prosciutto, among other
foods.
The trade negotiations are important
for the EU as Europe has tried to pro-
tect its share of agricultural exports
and pull itself out of recession. The
ability to exclusively sell some of the
continents most famous and tradition-
al products would prevent others from
cutting into those markets.
Concerned about the possible
impact of changing the label on those
popular foods, a bipartisan group of
55 senators wrote U.S. Trade
Representative Michael Froman and
Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack this
week asking them not to agree to any
such proposals by the EU.
Led by New York Sen. Charles
Schumer, D-N.Y., and Pennsylvania
Sen. Patrick Toomey, R-Pa., the mem-
bers wrote that in the states they repre-
sent, many small- or medium-sized,
Europe wants its Parmesanback, seeks name change

family owned businesses could have their
businesses unfairly restricted and that
export businesses could be gravely hurt.
Schumer said artisanal cheese production
is a growing industry across New York.
Muenster is Muenster, no matter how
you slice it, he said.
Trevor Kinkaid, a spokesman for the U.S.
trade representative, said conversations on
the issue are in the early stages but that the
U.S. and E.U. have different points of
view on the topic.
The agency wouldnt disclose details of
the negotiations, but Kinkaid said the U.S.
government is committed to increasing
opportunity for U.S. businesses, farmers
and workers through trade.
Large food companies that mass-produce
the cheeses are also ghting the idea. Kraft,
closely identied with its grated Parmesan
cheese, says the cheese names have long
been considered generic in the United
States.
Such restrictions could not only be cost-
ly to food makers, but also potentially con-
fusing for consumers if the labels of their
favorite products using these generic names
were required to change, says Kraft
spokesman Basil Maglaris.
Some producers say they are incensed
because it was Europeans who originally
brought the cheeses here, and the American
companies have made them more popular
and protable in a huge market. Errico
Auricchio, president of the Green Bay, Wi s. ,
company BelGioioso Cheese Inc., produced
cheese with his family in Italy until he
brought his trade to the United States in
1979.
We have invested years and years making
these cheeses, Auricchio says. You cannot
stop the spreading of culture, especially in
the global economy.
He says that companies who make certain
cheeses would have to come together and
gure out new names for them, which would
be almost impossible to do.
His suggestion for Parmesan? I Cant
Believe Its Not Parmesan, he jokes.
Jaime Castaneda works for the U.S. Dairy
Export Council and is the director of a group
formed to fight the EU changes, the
Consortium for Common Food Names. He
says the idea that only great cheese can
come from Europe is just not the case any-
more.
He points out that artisanal and locally
produced foods are more popular than ever
here and says some consumers may actually
prefer the American brands. European pro-
ducers can still lay claim to more place-spe-
cic names, like Parmigiano-Reggiano, he
says.
This is about rural America and jobs, he
said.

PROVIDENCE, R.I. Dont call them
hot dogs and dont ask for ketchup.
Those are the cardinal rules at Olneyville
New York System, arguably the best-known
Rhode Island spot for one of the states sig-
nature dishes: hot wieners.
Dish is probably an overstatement. These
are veal, pork and beef wieners slathered with
mustard, covered in special meat sauce,
topped with chopped onions and celery salt,
and served in a steamed bun. Ordering one
with all the xings is called all the way.
Many say all the way is the only way.
Theyre so greasy but good, said Paula
Malone of Glocester, who came in one
recent lunch hour with a colleague from the
Providence VAMedical Center to pick up a
big order. As in 33 hot wieners, seven cof-
fee milks coffee syrup-sweetened milk,
another Rhode Island staple and 10
orders of fries, for a Mardi Gras ofce party.
Hot wieners got some national recogni-
tion last month, when Olneyville New York
System was named an Americas Classic
by the James Beard Foundation.
The $2.15 wieners are small so lots of cus-
tomers order a few at a time. The grillers pre-
pare them in a way thats known as up the
arm balancing a row of buns and wieners
on their forearms, then adding each ingredi-
ent in quick, choreographed succession.
The Food Networks Guy Fieri raved about
Olneyvilles hot wieners in a segment of
The Best Thing I Ever Ate. Come for the
hot wieners and stay for the show, he said.
Cant beat it.
Last year, Providence Mayor Angel
Taveras appeared on the cover of The
Providence Phoenixs The Best issue
behind the restaurants counter, grinning
with a hot wiener in hand.
Rhode Islanders love their weenies. As co-
owner Greg Stevens says, the place has no
demographic. Its just as likely youll see a
state politician at the counter as you will a
police ofcer, a student or a foodie. A guy
driving a Bentley once asked him for a New
York System bumper sticker. According to
Stevens, who with his sister Stephanie took
over the restaurant two years ago when their
father died, the states rst hot wiener restau-
rant Original New York System opened
in Providence in the late 1920s.
His family, then with the surname
Stavrianakos, came to Rhode Island in the
1930s in a wave of Greek immigrants from
New York, one of the hot dog capitals of the
world. Olneyville New York System opened
in 1946 around the corner from its current
location. There are plenty of places to get
wieners in the state, like Sams New York
System in North Providence, Wein-O-Rama
in Cranston and Moonlight House of
Weiners in Woonsocket.
Not much has changed at the Olneyville
spot, and thats by design. The booths are
throwback yellow and orange, and the
tables are 1950s Formica. Jimmy
Saccoccio, now the general manager, has
been working there since 1968. The hot
wieners are pretty much the same, too.
You dont fix what isnt broken,
Stevens said.
During a recent lunch hour, a couple from
Boston sitting in a middle booth are easily
identied by the counter staff as weenie
virgins. Its not uncommon to get a play-
ful, or embarrassing, shout-out: Virgin in
the house! Stevens says he can spot some-
one whos never had one as soon as he or
she walks in the door.
Call the wieners hot dogs and youll be
corrected immediately. And ketchup is
strongly discouraged. Theres a sign on the
wall that says, It Has Been Said That When
You Put Ketchup on AHot Wiener, It Is a Sin
... Here It Is Against the Law!

PORTLAND, Ore. Far from the expec-
tant gaze of major restaurant critics and
the accompanying pressure to produce the
Next Big Thing, this little-big city offers
chefs a unique opportunity the chance
to experiment with less fear of scathing
reviews, empty tables and For Sale signs
after an adventurous flop.
Innovation is rewarded here, and maybe
thats called for in a region thats looking
beyond the novelty of farm-to-table,
toward something new. But what?
A dozen chefs from Los Angeles to
British Columbia recently came to
Portland to wrestle with that idea.
For people who hate labels, heres one
they particularly dislike: modernist cui-
sine, that murky term thats come to
mean vacuum sealing, gel layering,
foams, globules, centigrade measurements
and one famous 2,400-page, $625 cook-
book.
It is, however, the one that best
describes the culinary wave that has crest-
ed over big-city restaurants. Now even
humble Portland, nearly a decade on, is
finding its own way to express it.
Chef Gregory Gourdet who organized
the Chefs Week PDX event says the
catchall of modernism in the Pacific
Northwest can vary by the chef. Portland
is still not modern-technique heavy, he
says. It keeps things very approachable,
but its applying some of the tools (of
modernism).

The public can help protect them-
selves by being extremely weary of
anyone initiating contact over the
phone claiming to be police, a federal
agent or a utility company employee
requesting money or threatening
arrest, Norris said.
No one should provide any personal
information like addresses or Social
Security numbers over the phone
unless they initiate the call. Its also
critical to validate any information by
contacting the scammers purported
afliate agency directly before provid-
ing any information or money, Norris
said.
In nearly all phone scam cases, vic-
tims are instructed to send money via
wire transfers, prepaid debit cards like
the trending Green Dot card, said South
San Francisco police Sgt. Tom Neary.
Theres been a rise in crimes in
which scammers are posing as govern-
ment or law enforcement ofcials and
soliciting responses from over the
phone, said San Mateo Sheriffs
Deputy Rebecca Rosenblatt.
Its literally all over the country,
its just a matter of what community is
targeted and when. These are oppor-
tunistic criminals that are looking to
prey on people but, as we all know,
there are so many versions of this
same scam, Rosenblatt said.
San Mateo has been hit hard and at
least 25 warrant arrest scams were
reported in a month, Norris said.
Criminals will pose as a law enforce-
ment ofcial and provide a tiny bit of
the victims personal information,
such as part of a Social Security num-
ber or mailing address, to convince the
victim theyre legitimate. The scam-
mers then threaten arrest unless vic-
tims pay through wire transfers or pre-
paid debit cards, Norris said.
The same methodology is used in
many other scams, including criminals
claiming to be from the FBI, utility
companies like Pacic Gas and Electric
and other cold calls in which victims
are told they have family members in
jail, Neary said.
No one from the IRS is going to be
contacting anybody by the telephone.
The same thing goes for utility compa-
nies, people posing as FBI, IRS,
[police] from local jurisdictions say-
ing that they have a warrant for their
arrest, those types of contacts are
never made over the phone, Neary
said.
According to the IRS, its rst con-
tact with taxpayers regarding an issue
is likely by mail.
Most of the criminals are located out
of the area and insist money is
exchanged through wire transfers,
cashiers checks or prepaid cards,
Neary said. A common tactic is to
instruct a victim to purchase money
cards and then provide the scammer
with the codes, Neary said.
Scammers are continuing to use
more advanced tactics and may call
from numbers that appear to be from a
legitimate law enforcement source.
Citizens can try to Google a phone
number they believe a scammer may be
using and nd others writing about it,
Norris said. Aperson shouldnt rely on
a callback number provided by a sus-
pected scammer and should contact the
agency theyre claiming to be from
directly, Norris said.
A recent scammer even dedicated a
number and voicemail to its assumed
identity, Rosenblatt said.
A person was contacted by a scam-
mer claiming to be from the San Mateo
County Sheriffs Ofce and was pro-
vided with a call back number. When
called, it went to a voicemail of a man
with a southern accent saying it was
the Sheriffs Ofce, Rosenblatt said.
This incident would have clearly
appeared to be a scam to many, but
scammers are opportunistic.
Oftentimes, the elderly are targeted
because they tend to be more trusting
and those for whom English may be
their second language because they
may be trusting of those who say
theyre law enforcement or fearful of
the consequences and are therefore
more inclined to respond, Rosenblatt
said.
All law enforcement ofcials agree;
the best way to stop scammers is to
educate the public on how to avoid
becoming a victim and, if it seems to
good to be true, it probably is.
For more information about ways to
spot scams and how to protect oneself
and their families visit www.sanma-
teopd.org. If anyone suspects they are
the victim of a scam they should call
local law enforcement.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA The
missing Boeing 777 jetliner changed
course over the sea, crossed Malaysia and
reached the Strait of Malacca hundreds of
miles from its last position recorded by
civilian authorities, Malaysian military
ofcials said Tuesday, citing military radar
data.
The development added confusion and
mystery into one of most puzzling avia-
tion incidents of recent time, and it has
raised questions about why the Malaysia
Airlines ight apparently was not trans-
mitting signals detectable by civilian
radar, why its crew was silent about the
course change and why no distress calls
were sent after it turned back.
Many experts have been working on the
assumption there was a catastrophic event
on the flight such as an explosion,
engine failure, terrorist attack, extreme tur-
bulence, pilot error or even suicide. The
director of the CIAsaid in Washington that
he still would not rule out terrorism.
Flight MH370, carrying 239 people,
took off from Kuala Lumpur at 12:41 a.m.
Saturday, bound for Beijing. Authorities
initially said its last contact with ground
controllers was less than an hour into the
ight at a height of 35,000 feet, when the
plane was somewhere between the east
coast of Malaysia and Vietnam.
But local newspaper Berita Harian quoted
Malaysias air force chief, Gen. Rodzali
Daud, as saying that radar at a military base
had tracked the jet as it changed its course,
with the final signal at 2:40 a.m. showing
the plane to be near Pulau Perak at the
northern approach to the Strait of
Malacca, a busy waterway that separates
the western coast of Malaysia and
Indonesias Sumatra island. It was flying
slightly lower, at around 29,528 feet, he
said.
After that, the signal from the plane was
lost, he was quoted as saying.
Ahigh-ranking military ofcial involved
in the investigation conrmed the report.
The official spoke on condition of
anonymity because he was not authorized
to disclose sensitive information.
Authorities had said earlier the plane may
have tried to turn back to Kuala Lumpur, but
they expressed surprise it would do so with-
out informing ground control.

SIMFEROPOL, Ukraine As the cam-
paign increased for tension-lled Crimea to
split off from Ukraine in a weekend referen-
dum and join Russia, the regions parliament
said Tuesday that if voters approve the move
it would rst declare itself an independent
state, a maneuver that could de-escalate the
standoff between Moscow and the West.
The move would give Moscow the option
of saying there is no need for Crimea to
become part of Russia while keeping it rm-
ly within its sphere of inuence.
The dispute between Moscow and the West
over Crimea is one of the most severe
geopolitical crises in Europe since the end
of the Cold War. Russian forces have secured
control over the peninsula, but Ukraines
government and Western nations have
denounced the referendum as illegitimate and
strongly warned Russia against trying to
annex Crimea.
Backers of voting to split off from
Ukraine in Sundays referendum say becom-
ing part of Russia would return the Black Sea
peninsula to its rightful home. Billboards
around the regional capital proclaimed
Together with Russia and street vendors
were selling Russian flags to passing
motorists.
But Russias absorbing Crimea would
only worsen tensions with the West, and the
parliament declaration could put the bid on
hold, depending on the outcome of Russian
President Vladimir Putins bargaining with
the West.
In Sundays referendum, the public will be
given two options: becoming part of
Russia, or remaining in Ukraine with broad-
er powers.
Crimea, where Russia maintains its Black
Sea Fleet base, became the epicenter of ten-
sions in Ukraine after President Viktor
Yanukovych ed last month in the wake of
months of protests and outbreaks of blood-
shed.
