Foundation seeks input on PG&E settlement

San Bruno residents to weigh in on nearly $70 million in restitution funds
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

As an outreach effort ramps up,

San Bruno residents will have an
opportunity to express their opinion on how to best use the nearly
$70 million in restitution funds
paid by PG&E in the wake of the
2010 gas pipeline explosion .

The San Bruno Community

Foundation will host a series of
town hall meetings Monday, May
11, at Capuchino High School,
Thursday, March 28, at Belle Air
Elementary
School
and
Wednesday, June 3, at the San
Bruno Senior Center to solicit
suggestions on ways to manage
the fund.

The foundation is charged with

deciding the strategy to allocate
the $68.75 million in settlement
money given to the city by Pacific
Gas and Electric, in the wake of
the gas pipeline explosion in the
city that killed eight and injured
66.
Leslie Hatamiya, executive
director of the community founda-

tion, said input from residents will

have a profound influence on the
way the organization ultimately
spends the money.
We are excited to hear what the
people of San Bruno feel like are
the strengths of the community
that we can build on, and what are
some of the challenges in the
community that we can address, so

San Mateo officials are beginning to kick the citys new

Climate Action Plan into gear by expanding car-sharing services which, if successful, could reduce greenhouse gas emissions
by nearly 2,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide.
After being awarded a nearly $260,000 grant from the
Metropolitan Transportation Commission, the city plans to
engage a vendor that could create a robust network of short-term
car rentals, said Kathy Kleinbaum, senior management analyst
with the city managers office.
The city is seeking a company that would provide and manage
car-sharing services at eight new locations strategically placed
near transit, employment and residential hubs.
In early April, the City Council adopting its Climate Action
Plan a comprehensive document outlining numerous changes
aimed at meeting the states recommendation that cities reduce
their 2005 greenhouse gas emissions 15 percent by 2020.

Mayor seeks military memorial for Central Park

By Samantha Weigel

Maureen
Freschet

Honoring heroes and providing a

place for families to remember the men
and women whove given their lives to
serve the country and San Mateo could
become a new aspect of the citys
Central Park Master Plan.
Mayor Maureen Freschet will ask her
fellow councilmembers and the community Monday, May 4 to support a

proposal to create a living memorial

for military and those who have, and
will, die in the line of duty.
The beauty of it would be something
that just recognizes all of San Mateos
fallen heroes and to me, when I say
fallen hero, it includes anyone
police officers, firefighters, military
anyone whos given their lives in
service to their nation or community
to help us, Freschet said in an email.
The council will consider Freschets

proposal to create a memorial in the

park and hold annual services during
its meeting Monday night.
Freschet said she was contacted by a
resident who inquired whether the city
had done anything to honor those who
lost their lives in the Vietnam War.
Although the city has a few plaques
scattered throughout the park and city,
there isnt centralized locale where all
service men and women can be remembered, Freschet said.

Part of my thinking is anyone who

lived in San Mateo, grew up in San
Mateo, has spent time in Central Park
because its our premier park. So it
seemed like this would be the perfect
place to have a living memorial. And
go back and memorialize the names of
everyone since the city was incorporated and give their families one place
they can go to, where they can visit

Thought for the Day

The trouble with being punctual is that
nobodys there to appreciate it.
Franklin P. Jones, American journalist (1908-1980).

This Day in History

An international conference opened
in Geneva to forge an agreement
against the use of chemical and biological weapons in war; the Geneva
Protocol was signed on June 17, 1925
and went into force in 1928.

1925

On thi s date:
In 1 7 7 6 , Rhode Island declared its freedom from England,
two months before the Declaration of Independence was
adopted.
In 1 8 8 6 , at Haymarket Square in Chicago, a labor demonstration for an 8-hour work day turned into a deadly riot
when a bomb exploded.
In 1 9 0 4 , the United States took over construction of the
Panama Canal from the French.
In 1 9 3 2 , mobster Al Capone, convicted of income-tax evasion, entered the federal penitentiary in Atlanta. (Capone
was later transferred to Alcatraz Island.)
In 1 9 4 2 , the Battle of the Coral Sea, the first naval clash
fought entirely with carrier aircraft, began in the Pacific during World War II. (The outcome was considered a tactical victory for Imperial Japan, but ultimately a strategic one for
the Allies.)
In 1 9 5 9 , the first Grammy Awards ceremony was held at the
Beverly Hilton Hotel. Domenico Modugno won Record of
the Year and Song of the Year for Nel Blu Dipinto Di Blu
(Volare); Henry Mancini won Album of the Year for The
Music from Peter Gunn.
In 1 9 6 1 , the first group of Freedom Riders left
Washington D.C. to challenge racial segregation on interstate buses and in bus terminals.

CIA mystery barge resurrected

Police reports
Im not drunk!
Two friends were ghting because one

Cold War vessel once a

cloak of mystery spread by the CIA
and Howard Hughes has a new, and very
public, civilian job. Ironically, the resurrection of the mystery barge has drawn
little media attention, which is strange considering that the role it played in the ideological struggle was a top news story.
The massive submersible barge, which
features a 76-foot beam and a retractable
dome, is now a floating dry dock operated
by Bay & Yacht of Alameda which bought
the vessel from the Navy for $2.5 million in
2011.
During the 1970s, the huge Hughes
Mining Barge, with HMB-1 emblazoned on
the side, was home ported in Redwood City
where it was easily seen by motorists, many
of them assuming the letters had something
to do with Half Moon Bay. The mining
angle was a ruse to cover its true role as part
of a clandestine operation designed to
recover a Soviet submarine and its code
books from the depths of the Pacific Ocean.

Although it never left California coastal
waters, the barge was a main component in
the 1974 operation the CIA hoped would
bring the Russian submarine up more than
16,000 feet from the ocean about 1,000
miles from Hawaii. Reports speculated that
the operation was at least partly successful.
Underline speculated.
There was a lot of that sort of thing going
on when it came to finding out just what
happened. Several accounts erroneously
reported that the barge was submerged at the
recovery site.

Making dreams come true

Student assists children get tools they need to succeed
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

An El Camino High School senior is working to help fellow students achieve their dreams
through a volunteer program
designed to give underprivileged
families access to school supplies.
Patricia Manubay, 17, founded
the Dream Boxes program, which
provides an outlet for people to
donate supplies such as pens, pencils, erasers, crayons, rulers,
books, backpacks or other goods
to students who may not have
access to those resources.
Those making donations are
encouraged to ll a box with supplies, and also include a journal
and personal note, intended to
inspire recipients to pursue their
goal, and then drop the package
off at a school, hospital or charity
such as the United Way.
I believe no student or young
person should be discouraged or
talked into doing something other
than their passion, she said.
Manubay has received recognition from the Jefferson Awards, a
national organization that honors
community service, for her Dream
Boxes program.
Of 5,000 applicants, Manubays
Dream Boxes concept was awarded
for being one of the top ve programs in the education and literacy
competition at the Jefferson
Awards, which has allowed the
concept to expand.
Shortly after receiving the
award, Manubay began creating

the
boxes,
which for her
was a dream
come true.
It was overwhelming, it
was just an idea
at rst ... and
then I was making them, she
Patricia
said.
Manubay
Since then,
Manubay has been collecting
goods from organizations and
individuals, packing boxes and
donating them to volunteer agencies.
Recently, her South San
Francisco schools AVID program
donated 100 childrens books for
donation through Dream Boxes.
Last month, St. Jude Childrens
Research
Hospital
thanked
Manubay for donation of 18 boxes
to patients.
To recognize her efforts,
Manubay had the opportunity to
meet San Francisco Giants relief
pitcher Jeremy Affeldt and discuss
their common passion for community service, prior to attending a
game against the Los Angeles
Dodgers.
Going forward, Manubay said
she plans to expand the program
by distributing 1, 000 Dream
Boxes during a trip to the
Philippines this summer.
She said her passion for charity
began as a young child while volunteering at her church. As she
grew, so did her dedication to serving her community, and sense of
obligation to give back to those

less fortunate than her.

After entering high school,
Manubay increased her engagement in community service, and
began honing her skills in leadership.
I knew I wanted to make a bigger difference in my community,
she said. I just remember thinking that doing homework and getting good grades wasnt all there
was. I felt selsh. I felt I should be
doing something more than just
helping myself.
Manubay has served as the president of her associated student
body, and formed various clubs at
her high school, which led to her
involvement in larger national
programs such as the Jefferson
Awards.
In the future, Manubay said she
hopes to develop Dream Boxes
into a self-sustaining nonprot
company, on her way to becoming
a working professional in the
community service industry.
She hopes that she can serve as
a model citizen for her fellow students, or give faith to an older
generation that may not see a passion for community service in
younger people.
A lot of people tell me how
inspirational I am, she said.
She will attend Skyline College
in San Bruno next year, and hopes
to
eventually
transfer
to
University of California schools
in Berkeley or Santa Cruz.
No matter where I end up, I will
always have the urge to volunteer
and help people, she said.

Man gets jail for

gun possession
A Redwood City man with eight
prior felony convictions was sentenced to six months in the county
jail after police found pictures of
the man with guns in his hand, San
Mateo County prosecutors said
Friday. The court also sentenced
Patrick Justin Tully, 48, to three
years of supervised probation.
The photos were discovered after
police stopped Tullys girlfriend
on August 3, 2013, for a traffic
violation and arrested her on suspicion of being under the influence of drugs. When police
searched her cellphone they found
photos of Tully holding a Glock
handgun and a semiautomatic rifle,
according to prosecutors.
Police obtained a warrant to
search the home of the womans
father, a former San Francisco
Sheriffs deputy, where she and
Tully were staying. In the home,
police found 25 guns and thousands of round of ammunition,
according to prosecutors.
The father told police he knew
Tully had the two guns but didnt
know he had a prior felony conviction. The former deputy is paralyzed from a stroke, according to
prosecutors.
Defense attorney Frank Bell said
Friday that the guns belonged to
the father, who used the guns at a
shooting range, but District
Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said
Tully admitted to having the guns
to shoot at a range.

Upon arriving at the residence,

taken from the home.
Officers were not able to locate
any suspects in the area and the
investigation is ongoing, according to police.

to call them at (650) 616 7100.

Man pleads no contest

to Instagram threats
An El Granada car enthusiast
pleaded no contest Thursday to
threatening a sheriffs deputy on
social media, according to the San
Mateo District County Attorneys
Office.
Twenty-four-year-old El Granada
resident Gervacio Ronquillo Jr.
originally pleaded not guilty to
charges of obstructing and resisting an executive officer after posting threats on his Instagram
account against a deputy.
Two of the threats read, Im
gonna plant a bomb on his patrol
car! and one day he will get a
bullet! Ronquillo allegedly
directed the threats at a deputy who
issued Ronquillo a traffic citation
for not having a proper smog
check.
The district attorneys office
decided to charge Ronquillo with
obstructing and resisting an executive officer rather than threats
against a deputy because prosecutors said Ronquillo was allegedly
using the threats to stop the
deputy from doing his work.

Stanford wants to keep controversial dam

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

STANFORD

Stanford
University plans to keep a 19th
century dam that environmental
groups and water officials say is
endangering local populations of
steelhead trout and other species.
A Stanford University task force
released the schools long-awaited
proposals for the future of
Searsville Dam last week. Created
in 1892, the dams reservoir is

now largely filled with sediment

and has not been used as a public
water source since 2013. The task
forces report says the reservoir
has become an important wetlands
for local habitat, however, and
should not be removed.
The task force recommends
opening a hole at the base of the
dam to let water and fish flow. If
that is not feasible, the school
said, the best alternative would be
letting the dam fill with sediment

completely and providing a fish

ladder for trout.
The San Francisco Bay Regional
Water Quality Control Board in
late March expressed support for
calls to remove the dam entirely,
and expressed technical doubts
about both alternatives that the
school is proposing.
The water board called the dam a
complete barrier to fish migration on the creeks controlled by
the dam, and said the 65-foot-high

structure places the local population of steelhead trout at much

greater risk of extinction.
In a statement, dam opponent
Matt Stoecker of Beyond
Searsville Dam called the schools
two proposals ineffective BandAids and predicted they would not
secure government approval.
Stanford, in its own statement,
said both alternatives would cost
up to $100 million, and the
school would make a priority out

Donations swell for Browns favorite charities

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN JOSE Two favorite charities

of Gov. Jerry Brown are getting a flood
of donations from California business
interests this year.
The San Jose Mercury News reports
that two Oakland charter schools that
Brown supports have received $2.7
million in contributions made at the
governors behest in just the first
three months of 2015.
Top donors include the San Pablo
Lytton Casino, a San Francisco Bay
Area gambling center that would need
Browns approval to expand. The casino has given the two Oakland schools
$100,000 so far this year, after also
supporting them with donations in
previous years. Other top donors in
2015 include Maurice Kanbar, a San
Francisco-based real estate multimillionaire who gave $1 million to one of
Browns favored schools in February.

Health-care CEO
Prem Reddy, who
un s uc c e s s f ul l y
sought
state
approval recently
to
buy
six
California hospitals,
gave
$100,000.
California law
Jerry Brown
requires reporting
of any charity donation over $5,000
made at the behest of an elected official. Brown in September vetoed a bill
that would have slightly restricted the
so-called behested contributions.
The Mercury News reports that donations to Browns favorite charities at
his behest are on pace to more than
double the amount given in previous
years.
Brown, barred by term limits from
running for re-election in 2016, has
$19.6 million left over from his re-

election campaign last year.

Brown declined to say whether he
believes contributors give to the two
Oakland charter schools in order to
win his approval and attention, or
whether he feels influenced by those
donations, the Mercury News said.
Evan Westrup, the governors
spokesman, said the donations represent an opportunity for foundations,
businesses and individuals to invest in
their communities and help students
succeed.
Campaign watchdog groups contend, however, that donors give in
hopes of securing access and favors
from the governor.
None of the companies who are giving tens if not hundreds of thousands
of dollars to the governors pet charities can tell you with a straight face

Magnitude-3.9 quake shakes Los Angeles

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES A small earthquake has rattled the greater Los

Angeles area, shaking buildings and
waking residents.
There were no immediate reports of
injuries or damage.
The U.S. Geological Survey says an

earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 3.9 hit at 4:07 a.m. Sunday. It

was centered a mile northwest of the
View Park-Windsor Hills neighborhood, just north of the cities of
Inglewood and Culver City.
It was the second earthquake in less
than a month along the NewportInglewood fault.

A magnitude-3.5 quake hit the same

area on April 12.
The Los Angeles Fire Department
said early Sunday that it briefly went
into earthquake mode. The alert was
lifted after its helicopters surveyed
more than 470 square miles in the area
and all 106 fire stations conducted
safety checks.

The school would keep studying
the matter to ensure that we do
the right thing, especially for the

of the dam, the statement quoted

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LIVERMORE A car driven by a suspected drunken driver crashed into a Northern California apartment complex,
killing a woman and toddler and slightly injuring two other
children as they all walked together outside, police said
Sunday.
The crash occurred Saturday evening in Livermore, when
a driver lost control near a curve and smashed into the apartment complex. The vehicle struck a 40-year-old woman
walking with three children on a path at the complex,
Livermore Police Officer Ryan Sanchez said.
The woman and one child, a 14-month-old, were killed. A
6-year-old and a 7-year-old with them suffered cuts.
Police initially said the car struck victims in a backyard at
the complex.
Police arrested Brian Jones, 34, of Livermore on suspicion of gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated and
another alcohol-related driving count, Sanchez said. Jones,
who was treated for injuries before being jailed, could not
be reached for comment Sunday, and no information was
immediately available regarding his attorney.
Also Saturday, another suspected drunken driver killed a
24-year-old woman and injured eight other people in the
San Francisco Bay Area community of Bay Point.

Baltimore lifts curfew after riots

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BALTIMORE Six days after the death

of Freddie Gray sparked riots in Baltimore,
the citys mayor lifted a citywide curfew on
Sunday, signaling an end to the extraordinary measures taken to ensure public safety
amid an outcry over police practices.
Meanwhile, hundreds of jubilant people
prayed and chanted for justice at a rally in
front of City Hall organized by faith leaders. The rally comes days after the citys top
prosecutor charged six officers involved in
Grays arrest.
The Rev. Lisa Weah, pastor of the New
Bethlehem Baptist Church in Grays neighborhood, said the message of equal justice
for all must not be lost.
Our prayer is that Baltimore will be the
model for the rest of the nation, she said.
The order for residents to stay home
between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m. had been in
place since Tuesday, and officials had
planned to maintain it through Monday
morning. Protests since last Mondays
riots have been peaceful, and Fridays
announcement of charges against the officers eased tensions.
Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake said in
a statement that she didnt want the curfew
to continue any longer than necessary.
My number one priority in instituting a

curfew was to ensure the public peace, safety, health and welfare of Baltimore citizens, the Democratic mayor said. It was
not an easy decision, but one I felt was necessary to help our city restore calm.
Gray died after suffering a broken neck
while inside a police van. On Friday, States
Attorney Marilyn Mosby filed charges
against the six officers involved in his
arrest, transport and fatal injury. The officers face charges ranging from manslaughter to second-degree murder.
Mosby, who deemed the death a homicide,
said Grays neck was broken because he was
placed head-first into a police van while in
handcuffs and later leg shackles where he
was left to slam against the walls of the
small metal compartment. Police said the
officers who arrested Gray ignored his cries
for help because they thought he was faking
his injuries. He was repeatedly denied medical attention.
At a demonstration on Saturday that was
billed as a victory rally, speakers
expressed gratitude to Mosby for her decision.
Every prosecutor should have such backREUTERS bone, said Malik Shabazz, president of
Demonstrators rally at city hall in Baltimore Sunday. Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake lifted Black Lawyers for Justice and one of the

Abortions decline amid restrictions

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

COLUMBUS, Ohio The number

of abortion providers in Ohio has
shrunk by half amid a flurry of restrictive new laws over the past four years,
and the number of the procedures also
is declining, according to a review of
records by The Associated Press.
Both sides agree the added limits and
hurdles placed on Ohio abortions have
played a role in facility closures reaching to every corner of the nations 7th
most populous state. What is less clear
is whether the downward trajectory in
procedures is a cause or an effect of

some of the most significantly reduced

abortion access in the nation.
Seven of 16 Ohio abortion providers
have either closed since 2011 or curtailed abortion offerings, while an
eighth, in Toledo, is operating under
the cloud of pending litigation,
according to AP interviews and examinations of state licensing and business
records.
The plunge places Ohio second in
closures nationally, behind Texas,
where 17 of 40 providers have stopped
operating since 2011. The recent shuttering of two of 20 abortion providers
in Virginia is widely considered the

third most significant example, since

one of the facilities was the states
busiest. Both states also have tightened abortion laws.
Ohio saw induced abortions fall from
25,473 in 2012 to 23,216 in 2013
a period when 5 of the 7 affected
providers closed or curtailed services
state figures show. That was the
lowest level recorded since the state
began tracking the data in 1976, and
part of a general downward trend that
began in the late 1990s.

Suspect in NYPD
cop shooting spent
over 5 years in jail
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK A man who served five years in prison for

attempted murder was arraigned Sunday on charges that he
shot a New York City police officer in the head.
Demetrius Blackwell was ordered held without bail after
appearing in court in a torn jumpsuit with his hands cuffed
behind his back and legs shackled.
He was arrested Saturday night and charged with attempted murder in the shooting of Officer Brian Moore, who
remained hospitalized in critical but stable condition after
hours of surgery. Doctors have placed him in a medically
induced coma.
At the arraignment, the 35-year-old suspect did not enter
a plea. He is due back in court Friday.
Officials said Moore was shot on a Queens street after he
and his patrol partner both in plainclothes in an
unmarked police car pulled up to a man adjusting his
waistband in a suspicious way, police Commissioner
William Bratton said.

States spent big to clear winter snow

By Bob Salsberg
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BOSTON Winters full fury

arrived late in much of the country
but once it did it was relentless,
quickly exhausting snow removal
budgets and pushing the resources
of state transportation agencies to
their limit as they fought to keep
highways safe and passable,
according to a first-of-its-kind
survey.
The American Association of
State Highway and Transportation
Officials said 23 states reported
combined spending of more than
$1 billion on winter maintenance
operations and 8 million work
hours plowing or treating state
roads from October to March.
The states that responded to
Mondays survey, obtained in
advance by The Associated Press,
also went through 6 million tons
of salt and other huge quantities of

brine and liquid deicing chemicals. One state reported using

216,000 gallons of beet juice,
which can help salt stick to road
surfaces.
This winter the storms just
came one on top of the other and
there wasnt time in between to
replenish your salt piles and give
your folks some time off, said
Rick Nelson, coordinator of the
associations Snow and Ice
Cooperative Program.

In Boston
A single season snowfall record
was broken in Boston, with virtually all the 110 inches coming in
a six-week stretch from late
January to early March when temperatures rarely rose above freezing.
In January we were talking
about what we were going to do
with the surplus snow and ice
funds, recalled Thomas Tinlin,

Massachusetts highway administrator. The Department of

Transportation wound up spending $154 million on winter maintenance, well above its $107 million annual budget. Additional
money was appropriated to assure
the states private snow plow contractors got paid.
Massachusetts used 600, 000
tons of salt and 1.6 million gallons of liquid deicer. Crews
removed 17.5 billion cubic feet of
snow from state roadways, equivalent to 40 times the volume of dirt
excavated during the massive
Boston highway project known as
the Big Dig, state officials noted.

Keep traffic flowing

Pennsylvania, which budgeted
$203 million for winter maintenance based on a five-year average
of previous expenditures, spent
$272 million to keep traffic flowing on the states 40,000 miles of

City outlaws discrimination

against atheists, non-religious
By Dana Ferguson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MADISON, Wis. While conservatives

in Indiana and Arkansas were explaining
last month why their new religious objections laws werent invitations to discriminate against gays, the leaders of
Wisconsins capital city were busy protecting the rights of another group: atheists.
In what is believed to be the first statute
of its kind in the United States, Madison
banned discrimination against the non-religious on April 1, giving them the same protections afforded to people based on their
race, sexual orientation and religion,
among other reasons.
Its hardly surprising that such a statute
would originate in Madison, an island of
liberalism in a conservative-leaning state

and the home of the Freedom from Religion

Foundation. But the ordinances author,
Anita Weier, said it didnt arise from an actual complaint about alleged discrimination
based on a lack of religious faith.
It just seems to me that religion has
spread into government more than I feel
comfortable with, said Weier, who left the
council after the statute passed. It just
occurred to me that religion was protected,
so non-religion should be, too.
She said it also had nothing to do with
what was happening in Indiana and
Arkansas, which rolled back their religious
objections laws amid heavy criticism that
they were meant to give legal cover to people who cite religious reasons for discriminating against gays.

Obituary

HARRY WING TONG: 1934 2015

Harry W. Tong of Foster City passed away April 28, 2015. He
was born in Toisan, China, the youngest son of Koon Hai Tong
and Ting Lit Tong. He was educated at Von Steuben High School
and Wilson City Junior College in Chicago, Illinois. Mr. Tong
later received his Bachelors in Business Administration and his
Masters in Accounting degrees from Roosevelt University. He
obtained his Juris Doctorate from De Paul University. He was
a licensed CPA, licensed California Real Estate Broker and a
former faculty member of West Valley College.
A self-made man and entrepreneur, Mr. Tong was the founder of Tong Associates,
Tong Accountancy Corp. and the Up To Date CPA Review Course.
Public service was his passion. Mr. Tong was a proud Past President, Treasurer and
Secretary of the Woodside Terrace AM Kiwanis Club, receiving their 2005 Distinguished
Service Award for his many hours of service to the community. He was the Founding
President and Board of Directors member of the Organization of Chinese Americans San
Mateo Chapter. Mr. Tong was the San Mateo County Human Relations Commissioner, a
leader in the Chicago Wah Mei Dragons Drum and Bugle Corps, a member of the Asian
Senior Club of San Mateo, Foster City Citizens Emergency Response Team and the
Foster City Chinese Club. After retiring his law practice, he was an avid volunteer in the
Peninsula community, focusing on senior citizen and Asian American issues.
Mr. Tong and his wife have funded college scholarships at Cameron House and
Chinatown Community Development Center in San Franciscos Chinatown, as well as
providing scholarships for needy students in China through the SOAR Foundations and
Spring Bud. In 2008 Mr. Tong and his wife established the St. Therese Scholarship Fund
in association with the St. Therese Chinese Catholic Mission, the Tong familys former
church and school in Chicagos Chinatown. The three annual scholarships are awarded in
the names of the St. Therese clergy who greatly inuenced and inspired Mr. Tong during
his formative years.
He leaves his beloved wife, ve children, sons-in-law and three grandchildren.
Funeral services are pending. Arrangements are being coordinated by the Sneider,
Sullivan and OConnells Funeral Home of San Mateo, California.
Memorial gifts can be made to Chinese Benevolent Association/Confucius Church of
Stockton in memory of Harry W. Tong.

roadway, according to Erin WatersTrasatt, a transportation spokeswoman.

Pennsylvania also was among
several states that sent crews and
equipment to help out in
Massachusetts, she said.
It wasnt just the typical northern snow belt states that felt winters wrath.
Normally we dont budget for
ice and snow because we dont get
it that often, said Melinda
McGrath, executive director of the
Mississippi
Department
of
Transportation. But recent winters
have brought several dangerous
ice storms to the south, and this
year Mississippi spent $3.1 million, used 887 tons of salt and
devoted 64, 704 work hours to
keep state roads safe.
An even larger and longer-term
expense, McGrath said, are potholes. Its a universal headache for
motorists and highway officials

as freezing and melting cycles

cause pavement to expand then
crack. Maryland was among several other states reporting a large
increase in potholes this spring.
The actual taxpayer cost of winter road maintenance was much
higher than measured by the survey. Not all states responded and
the expenses incurred by municipalities for plowing local roads
was seen as comparable to state
governments.
Unlike the previous winter,
AASTHO said there were no serious shortages of salt this year.
Winter maintenance needs can
often be overlooked in transportation planning, said Bud Wright,
the groups executive director.
When we think about funding
transportation we need to consider
the total amount needed to keep
people and goods moving
throughout the entire year, he
said.

Boko Haram stoned girls to death

By Michelle Faul
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

YOLA, Nigeria Even with the crackle

of gunfire signaling rescuers were near, the
horrors did not end: Boko Haram fighters
stoned captives to death, some girls and
women were crushed by an armored car and
three died when a land mine exploded as
they walked to freedom.
Through tears, smiles and eyes filled with
pain, the survivors of months in the hands
of the Islamic extremists told their tragic
stories to the Associated Press on Sunday,
their first day out of the war zone.
We just have to give praise to God that
we are alive, those of us who have survived, said 27-year-old Lami Musa as she
cradled her 5-day-old baby girl.
She was among 275 girls, women and
their young children, many bewildered and
traumatized, who were getting medical care
and being registered a day after making it to
safety.
Nigerias military said it has freed nearly
700 Boko Haram captives in the past week.
It is still unclear if any of them were among
the so-called Chibok girls, whose mass

sparked outrage worldwide and a campaign
for their freedom under the hashtag
(hash)BringBackOurGirls.
Musa was in the first group of rescued
women and girls to be transported by road
over three days to the safety of the Malkohi
refugee camp, a dust-blown deserted school
set among baobab trees opposite a military
barracks on the outskirts of Yola, the capital of northeastern Adamawa state.
Last weeks rescue saved her from a forced
marriage to one of the killers of her husband, she said.
They took me so I can marry one of their
commanders, she said of the militants who
carried her away from her village after
slaughtering her husband and forcing her to
abandon their three young children, whose
fates remain unknown. That was five
months ago in Lassa village.
When they realized I was pregnant, they
said I was impregnated by an infidel, and we
have killed him. Once you deliver, within a
week we will marry you to our commander,
she said, tears running down her cheeks as

Community leaders: Nigerian troops kill dozens of civilians

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

JOS, Nigeria Nigerian troops

have killed dozens of civilians and
razed scores of homes to avenge
the deaths of six soldiers, community leaders and residents of central Plateau state charged on
Sunday.

A spokesman for the Special

Task Force said its troops are
involved only in an ongoing battle with a tribal militia that residents said killed six soldiers and
mutilated their bodies last week.
The soldiers eyes were gouged
out, their tongues slit and they
were beheaded, according to resi-

dents who spoke on condition of

anonymity because they feared
reprisals.
Spokesman Capt. Ikwedichi
Iweha denied the force attacked
any civilians, asking why they
would attack the very people they
are supposed to protect?
Traditional ruler Chief Jessie

Miri told reporters as many as 80

people have been killed in weekend attacks by soldiers in his Wase
district.
Residents said the soldiers
arrived in more than a dozen
armored personnel carriers.
Community leader Comrade
Jangle Lohbut called a news con-

ference in Plateau state capital,

Jos, to say he had documented at
least 38 deaths, including those of
two police officers, members of
the National Security and Civil
Defense Corps and a member of a

Losing a resource while developer makes profit

By Julie McAuliffe

Rebuilding the Bridgepointe Ice

Rink today would cost over $10 million-$15 million (not including
land), based on estimates of a community-based effort to open a similar
rink in Santa Barbara. Losing it would
bedevastating to San Mateo a
recreational amenity that can never be
replaced. The rink served over
100,000 people per year and was
open over 20 hours a day, seven days
a week.
In its application to demolish the
ice rink, property owner SPI views
the rink as sub-optimal because a
recreational amenity does not provide
the prots tothem that a retail store
would provide. Theyhave pointed to
the rink as an empty building needing an updated look. However,SPI
chose to make the building empty by
unilaterally shutting down a profitable, fully-utilized recreational
amenity one that was self-sustaining and not subsidized by the city or
county. By changing the land use to
retail, SPI will gain millions of dollars in prot all at the expense of
this loss to our community. They will
be laughing all the way to the bank.
In its application, SPIalso cited the
rink was used by outsidersand
most of the users came from outside
the city of San Mateo. However,
according to documents submitted by
the developer in its new
proposal,itshowsthat in addition to
other San Mateo General Plan Land
Use goals, the ice rink is to

Establish San
Mateo as the cultural center of San
Mateo County. A
major purpose of
the ice rink was to
attract others(outsiders)to San
Mateo so they
could skate, dine,
shop and spend money in our city.
It is interesting to note that the San
Mateo Department of Parks and
Recreation is now having to offer
their ice skating programs in
Belmont does this mean San Mateo
folks are outsiders too, since they
have to attend San Mateo Parks and
Recreation programs in a neighboring city becauseour ice rink is
closed? The need for those programs
has not gone away (as SPI would have
you believe), they have just been
moved outside of San Mateo.
And contrary to SPIs statement,
thousands who live or workin San
Mateoregularlyused the rink, as
demonstrated by letters and petitions
(over 10,000 and growing) from San
Mateo folks, as well as those from
surrounding cities such as Foster City,
Burlingame, Belmont, San Carlos and
as far as San Francisco, Oakland and
San Jose. Not only did the rink meet
that land use goal to draw people to
San Mateo, it went well beyond,
asproven by the rink demographics.
Would SPI want only San Mateo residents to shop at Bridgepointe? How
about those who reside elsewhere but
work in San Mateo? OK for them to
shop anddineat Bridgepointe, but

not skate? The ice rink was one of the

project benets outweighing the
environmental impacts when
Bridgepointe was built. And it was
intended to be there in perpetuity, not
just until SPI decided they wanted to
demolish the rink and make more
prots for themselves.
In addition to the ice rink, San
Mateo has another outstanding
regional recreational amenity the
Poplar Creek Golf Course. Less than
20 percent of the golf course users are
from San Mateo most are from surrounding cities on the Peninsula.
Would we consider getting rid of the
golf course or calling the non-San
Mateo golfers outsiders? I think not
these regional recreational amenities are a huge benet to our city, to
San Mateo businesses and tothe folks
who live and work here how wonderful to have family skating (or golfing) 10 minutes from home.
San Mateo has a rich history of
being a place where people want to
come to live, work, dine, shop,
and yes, enjoy recreation. We urge the
City Council to vote no to this proposed land use change and work with
SPI to reopen the ice rink and meet
this importantrecreational requirementfor the community.

Rain: Just a dance

and a prayer away
Editor,
On Jan. 14, 2014, Catholic bishops called for Californians of all
faiths to pray for divine intervention
to bring rain. The National Weather
Service predicted some precipitation.
On Jan. 25, 2014, Native Americans
from multiple tribes performed the
rain dance. The National Weather
service called for a slight chance of
sprinkles.
Evidently, both the bishops and
Native Americans do have some clout
in the clouds but not enough. Fast

guess, will be nice, but it seems to me
that we do not need any more saints.
What we badly need is rain. Therefore
I suggest that the pope and the bishops join the Native Americans in a
big rain dance. The rain dance is not
easy but with a few lessons the pope
and bishops will be able to do it.
To make it more effective, the pope
and the bishops should dress in their
most solemn ceremonial regalia. It
wont match the spectacular and colorful Native American apparel but it
will help. A ceremony of this magnitude most certainly will guarantee a
good rainfall, and as a bonus it will
be a tourist attraction.

The legacy of
Frances Bohannon
Nelson (1922-2013)

he legacy of Frances Nelson has to start with her

famous father, developer David Bohannon, who
helped change the Peninsula economy. Bohannon
began constructing houses in the early 1930s. He purchased a 540-acre site, called Belle Haven, in what is now
East Palo Alto and began the rst of 1,305 units for lowto moderate-income families. Costs of these units were
around $6,000.
He then purchased the St. Cyr estate in the San Mateo
area in the late 30s and acquired 848 acres of Burleigh H.
Murray property called Beresford in 1940. This began a
monumental scale of construction which included a
community of 5,000 low
rambling ranch-style houses priced between $5,000
and $6,000, well within
the range of the average
worker at that time. In
addition to the houses, a
shopping complex was
developed, the origins of
Hillsdale Shopping Center
today.
***
Born in Oakland in
1922, Frances Nelson was
the eldest daughter of
Ophelia and David D.
Bohannon.
She graduated from San Mateo High School and the
University of California at Berkeley and began working
with the Bohannon companies in 1943. In 1975, she was
named president. Her leadership guided the successful
growth of Bohannon Development Company. Among
many signicant accomplishments, a major triumph in
her business life included the expansion and enclosure of
Hillsdale Shopping Center in 1981, amid a daunting economic recession.
Frances Nelson thrived as a CEO in a mans world while
raising three children and playing an active role in the
community. She served as regent and trustee of Santa Clara
University, was on the Board of Governors of the Urban
Land Institute and the Advisory Board of Peninsula
Volunteers, was honorary chairman of the capital campaign for the Second Harvest Food Bank in San Mateo
County, and generously supported Planned Parenthood and
womans reproductive rights, notwithstanding her staunch
support of the Republican Party.
What I especially admired about Frances Nelson was her
active involvement in San Mateo. Even though she lived
in Woodside, she spent most of her time and energy here.
She attended city meetings large and small. She was an
active member of the Hillsdale-Bay Meadows Specic
Plan, the Economic Health Advisory Committee, the San
Mateo Library Capital Campaign and the San Mateo
Centennial Committee. She really didnt have to attend so
many committee, Planning Commission and City Council
meetings but she did. And she and the Bohannon
Company were generous donors to local nonprots as
well as supporters of local initiatives, school bonds, parcel taxes, new civic buildings including the San Mateo
main library, and social service programs.
Nelson was voted into the San Mateo County Womans
Hall of Fame in 1990. In her leisure time, she liked trying
new recipes in the kitchen or shing and hunting with her
family on expeditions to Alaska, Canada, Cabo San Lucas,
India and Africa.
Yet despite the many successes, she also faced her share
of tragedies. Her husband was sick for many years; her
only son (she has two surviving daughters) was killed in a
freak accident in New Zealand.
***
Robert Webster of the Bohannon organization, who
worked closely with Nelson, said, Frances was a dynamic
person and strong leader. She treasured the family business and cherished being able to lead it for almost 40
years. Her focused determination allowed her to thrive in a
profession generally populated by men. Her most notable
achievement was the successful expansion and enclosure
of Hillsdale Shopping Center in the early 1980s which
brought Nordstrom to Northern California. Frances loved
San Mateo and cared deeply about giving back.
***
As a young girl growing up in Hillsborough, Nelson
made many visits to the old downtown San Mateo Library.
It was there she developed a love of books and reading.
This Friday, the San Mateo Library Foundation will dedicate a plaque to Frances Bohannon Nelson in the
Childrens Library which reads in part Frances Nelsons
love of books has given others the opportunity to enjoy
the wonder and discovery of learning through literature.
This legacy to our community will be appreciated for generations to come.

Labor assists marijuana legalization

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SACRAMENTO Organized
labor is assisting efforts to frame
a California ballot measure to
legalize recreational marijuana use
in the state, sensing an opportunity to expand its presence in the
workplace.
The
United
Food
and
Commercial Workers Western
States Council commissioned a
series of focus groups, where likely voters across the state filed into
rooms with one-way mirrors to
share opinions, The Sacramento
Bee reported. The research is
aimed at shaping a legalization
initiative for the 2016 ballot.
The labor council, an umbrella

group for 160,000 grocery and

other workers across the state,
already has a foothold in the marijuana industry, representing about
1, 000 workers in medical
cannabis jobs. Jim Araby, its
executive director, said it wants to
be involved early in the ballot
effort and ensure that a proposal
contains strong labor protections.

Training standards
If you look at the legalization
efforts in other parts of the country, questions about creating real
training standards for the workforce werent a piece of the conversation and dialogue, Araby

said.
California voters, which made
the state the first in that nation to
decriminalize marijuana use for
medical purposes, rejected a
broader legalization measure in
2010, a failure that analysts
attributed to overreaching language. Colorado, Washington,
Oregon and Alaska have legalized
the drug in recent years.
A recent statewide survey by the
Public Policy Institute of
California found that likely voter
support for legalizing recreational
marijuana use has grown to 55 percent, up six points since 2010.
Proponents of successful ballot
measures must get everything
right: from the timing, concept

and policy details to the messages, messengers and money,

said Ned Wigglesworth, an initiative strategist and partner at
Redwood Pacific Public Affairs.
If it comes off as a sensible,
well-considered change in drug
policy supported by credible
groups, theyve got a shot, he
said. If it comes off as a scheme
cooked up by potheads, voters
will treat it accordingly.

Sample ballots
The union-commissioned surveys, held in February by David
Binder Research, asked 48 likely
voters were where they stood on
the issue. Participants who were

paid about $75 each were provided

sample ballots, which varied but
were consistent in allowing production, processing, delivery,
possession and sale of marijuana
to adults.
Araby said the proposal should
not try to solve every little problem and overcomplicate things
for voters.
He envisions enlisting thousands of campaigners from organized labor who could advertise the
effort, hold phone banks and
invest in television ads.
The biggest challenge now,
Araby said, is to make sure the
groups that have the resources to
put something on the ballot and
pass it all work together.

Google embeds engineers as professors

By Martha Mendoza
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MOUNTAIN VIEW Howard

University freshman Alanna
Walton knew something was different about the professor teaching her introduction to computer
science course.
First, there was her name:
Professor Sabrina. She was an
African American woman, kept
office hours until 2 a.m. if thats
what it took to see everyone, and
had an additional title: Google In
Residence.
It was an awesome class, said
Alanna who has already chosen
her major at the Washington D.C.based university: computer science.
In ongoing efforts to diversify
Silicon Valleys tech sector,
Google is embedding engineers at
a handful of Historically Black
Colleges and Universities where
they teach, mentor and advise on
curriculum.
Today 35 percent of African
Americans receiving computer
science degrees come from those

schools, but they dont make their

way to Silicon Valleys top tech
firms. Google is typical about
1 percent of its technical staffers
are black.
Last year a push by civil rights
advocate Jesse Jackson prompted
several dozen tech firms to release
workforce diversity data which
showed under-representation of
African Americans, Latinos and
women in the field.
In response, businesses, universities and community leaders have
launched initiatives aimed at
diversifying their ranks, both ethnically and by gender. The Anita
Borg Institute and the National
Center
for
Women
and
Information Technology have
partnered with many companies to
support female engineers.
Facebook offers Facebook
University, an internship for low
income minority college freshmen interested in computer science. Intel has committed $300
million over the next five years
toward diversifying its workforce,
while Apple has a $50 million
partnership with nonprofits to

support women and minority computer science majors.

Google decided to go to the
source, sending a handful of software engineers to teach at Howard,
Hampton University in Hampton,
Virginia, Fisk University in
Nashville, and Spelman and
Morehouse colleges in Atlanta.
They taught introductory courses, but they also trained students
on everything from how to send a
professional email to how to make
it through a software engineering
job interview, which can involve
a lot of time solving coding questions at a white board.
This summer, 30 of those students will be Google interns. And
Howard University graduating
senior Christopher Hocutt, 21,
whose friends jokingly call him
Mr. Google, will be starting at the
company full-time.
Hocutt said the Google In
Residence professors convinced
him to apply.
What they discovered was a lot
of people werent even applying
to Google because we didnt
believe we were skilled enough to

do it, he said. Once we realized

we have the skills, we just needed
mentorship to make our resume
look good, get through the interview, have confidence to try.
Google software engineer
Sabrina Williams, who took a
semester away from her Mountain
View campus this year to mentor
and teach at Howard, is thrilled to
see her student becoming a colleague.
Im inspired, she said.
Change is slow, this is going to
take time, but I think whats interesting about this program is that
its a different way of attacking the
problem of lack of diversity in
tech.
Fifteen years ago, Williams was
the only female African American
computer science major at
Stanford University. I kind of felt
awkward so I kind of hid a lot, she
said. It was very difficult.
She said that while teaching is
hard and the hours at Howard were
grueling, she welcomed the
opportunity to offer students an
experience different from her own.
This included taking female com-

puter scientists aside early in the

semester, telling them she was
available for any questions, and
encouraging them to support each
other.
Legrand Burge, who chairs
Howard Universitys computer science department, welcomes the
temporary addition of Google
engineers to his faculty.
Theyre not academics but they
have domain expertise that students could definitely learn a lot
from, he said. The word got out
and it actually got a lot of students
interested in computer science
who didnt initially plan to study
it.
Indeed, class sizes have doubled
in intro courses. Williams had 70
students in one class; about 250
were taught so far this year by
Google engineers at all five
schools.
In the 1970s and 80s a similar
program partnered the university
with AT&T, Bell and Hewlett
Packard, Burge said. This time, he
said, Google is bringing a disruptive, Silicon Valley mentality to
their campus.

In Congress, income inequality comes with breakfast, lunch

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Income
inequality is more than a political
sound bite to workers in the
Capitol. Its their life.
Many of the Capitols food
servers, who make the meals, bus
the tables and run the cash registers in the restaurants and carryouts that serve lawmakers, earn
less than $11 an hour. Some make
nothing at all when Congress is in
recess.
Members of the House and
Senate collect their $174, 000
annual salaries whether Congress
is making laws, taking a break or
causing a partial government
shutdown.

This is the most important

building in the world, said Sontia
Bailey, who works the cash register and stocks the shelves at the
Refectory takeout on the
Capitols Senate side. Youd
think our wages would be better.
Bailey, 34, makes $10.33 an
hour, a hair above the $10.10
hourly minimum for federal contractors. She had to move from her
apartment to a rented room when
the 2013 temporary government
shutdown interrupted her income,
she said.
KFC pays her better. Bailey
works weekends and two evenings
a week there, making $12 an hour.
In the Capitol food service
world, she said, everybody has

second jobs.
Down an ornate hallway is 21year-old Abraham Tesfahun. He
serves lunch in the Senate members dining room and handles the
afternoon cash register in the busy
Senate takeout, one floor below.
Tesfahun said his hourly pay is
$10.30. But he receives an additional $3 an hour in cash, which
otherwise would go toward health
insurance. He is covered by his
mothers insurance policy under
President Barack Obamas health
care law.
That doesnt mean Tesfahun,
who emigrated from Ethiopia as a
teenager, is tight with his mom.
She kind of kicked me out of
the house, he said sheepishly,

when he quit community college

after one year to work seven days a
week. Now, he said, he rents a
basement room and works full
time in the Capitol. On Saturdays
and Sundays, he works at a
Dunkin Donuts, for $8 an hour.
Thats above the federal minimum
wage of $7.25, although some
states have higher minimums.
People are much nicer in the
Capitol, Tesfahun said. But he said
he generally has no work or pay
when Congress is out of session,
and he sometimes collects unemployment benefits. The Senate is
scheduled to be in recess 13 weeks
this year.
Both Bailey and Tesfahun said
they once received a pay raise of 3

SurveyMonkey founder dies on vacation

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO David Goldberg, a

popular Silicon Valley executive and husband of Facebook second-in-command and
Lean In author Sheryl Sandberg, has died
suddenly at age 47, his company and family members said Saturday.
Goldberg was CEO of online survey
questionnaire provider SurveyMonkey. He
died Friday night, the company said in a

statement on its website.

Family members also reported the death,
via postings on Facebook. Neither the
company nor family released a cause or
other details about his death. Facebook
founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg told The
New York Times that Goldberg died while
he was on vacation abroad with his wife.
Dave Goldberg was an amazing person,
and I am glad I got to know him,
Zuckerberg wrote on his Facebook page.

My thoughts and prayers are with Sheryl

and her family.
Goldberg told Business Insider of maxing out his credit cards in the early 1990s
to fund one of his first Internet ventures, a
music site, before going on to work at
other tech companies, including Yahoo.
In 2004, Goldberg married Sandberg,
another longtime tech executive who now
serves as Facebooks chief operating officer.

cents an hour. In Congress and the

2016 presidential race, candidates
in both parties promise to help
U.S. workers narrow the gap with
high earners. The Capitols food
workers many of whom cant
afford cars, let alone vacations
are prime examples of people
without college degrees who have
fallen far behind in the high-tech
global economy.
Capitol food workers with at
least seven years experience fare
better than Bailey and Tesfahun,
making about $16 or $17 an hour.
But even one of those, cook
Shawnee Ellis, said she does catering on the side because I have to
make extra money to pay her

Warriors tame Grizzlies in Game 1 of Western semifinals

By Antonio Gonzalez

Warriors 101, Grizzlies 86

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND Golden State Warriors

coach Steve Kerr joked before Game 1 of the
Western Conference semifinals that
reporters should have two stories ready: One
if his team looked well-rested and won,
another if it looked rusty and lost.
It was right in the middle, so youve got
to write a third story, he teased afterward.
Neither the Warriors nor Grizzlies really
felt good about the way they played. The difference is the Warriors did what they usually
do at home: take care of business and

comfortably, too.
Stephen Curry had 22
points and seven assists,
and the Warriors wore
down
undermanned
Memphis in a 101-86
victory in Sundays
Steph Curry
series opener.
I think now weve got the cobwebs out of
our offensive game. We should be able to
build some momentum, Curry said.
Curry has won the NBAs Most Valuable

Player award, a person familiar with the

decision told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the league has
not released the voting results.
An official announcement is expected
Monday, and Curry will be presented with
the award on the court before Game 2 on
Tuesday night.
Klay Thompson added 18 points and
Draymond Green scored 16 to help the topseeded Warriors roll to their 21st straight
win at raucous Oracle Arena. They led by

nine at the half, 20 late in the third quarter

and never let the Grizzlies come close in the
fourth despite Green and center Andrew
Bogut getting in foul trouble.
Marc Gasol had 21 points and nine
rebounds, and Zach Randolph finished with
20 points and nine rebounds for a Memphis
team missing point guard Mike Conley. He
sat on the bench in a suit, his left eye still
swollen, as he continues to recover from
surgery to repair broken bones in his face.
Conley said he has no idea whether
hell play in Game 2.

The New York Yankees duo of Mickey

Mantle and Roger Maris made the nickname
famous in the 1960s, but the College of San
Mateo baseball team has its own version of
the M&M Boys.
The Bulldogs tandem of Miles
Mastrobuoni and Devin Mahoney proved
worthy of the M&M moniker Saturday as
No. 5-seed CSM (27-11) completed a sweep
of No. 12 Merced in the opening round of
the California Community College Athletic
Association regional playoffs.
After trouncing the Blue Devils (23-15) in
Friday's best-of-three series opener 12-3,
the Bulldogs completed the sweep with a 61 victory Saturday at Bulldog Field.
Mastrobuoni paced the Bulldogs in the
finale with three hits, going 3 for 4 with an
RBI and three extra-base hits. Mahoney
reached base in all five of his plate appearances, going 2 for 2 with three walks.
But it was on the mound where Mahoney
shined. Making the first start of his collegiate career, the sophomore went the distance, allowing one run on three hits while
throwing 96 pitches, striking out three
against two walks and inducing 11 groundouts. He retired the last 10 batters he faced.
Mahoney earned his stripes out of the
bullpen this season. Previous to Saturdays
start, he worked 34 1/3 innings, all out of
the pen to lead all Bulldogs relievers. But in
his starting debut Saturday, he earned the
victory to improve to 5-1 and only seemed
to grow stronger as the day went on.
The Bulldogs staked Mahoney to an early
lead, rallying in the first inning for a run.

Sophomore shortstop Kayleen Smith has

ball through both games. She went 4 for 7 in
the series, as her bat was integral to giving
CSM the lead for good in both games.
Smith also turned in some key defensive
plays to keep American River rallies from
boiling over into big innings, including a
pair of rangy plays one in each game
to cut down lead runners at third base.
Then she turned in a defensive gem in the
top of the fifth inning Sunday. With two on
and one out amid a 3-1 CSM lead, Smith

McIlroy top of the world at Match Play Championship

By Doug Ferguson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Rory McIlroy didnt

need another comeback to win the Match
Play Championship.
Three times in the last three days,
McIlroy had to rally from a late deficit to
reach the championship match Sunday at
TPC Harding Park. He removed any suspense by winning four straight holes
against an errant Gary Woodland and never
looked back.

Rory McIlroy

Woodland conceded the

16th hole, and McIlroy
captured his second World
Golf Championship with
a 4-and-2 victory.
Three weeks
after
Jordan Spieth won the
Masters and emerged as
the most likely rival,
McIlroy reminded the
world of his No. 1 rank-

ing.
Im really proud of myself with how I

showed a lot of character early on with coming back from deficits, McIlroy said. I
played really solid golf. My second WGC
and first win in the States this year. I couldnt be happier.
It was the first time since Tiger Woods in
2008 that the No. 1 seed won golfs most
unpredictable tournament. Woods did it two
other times, and it was never easy.
That was the case for McIlroy until the
final, and even then, he had a few nervous
moments on the back nine.
McIlroy was 4 up after matching birdies

with Woodland on the 10th hole when he

began making mistakes a poor bunker
shot on No. 11, a wild tee shot on No. 12,
an different chip from the left side of the
13th green.
Woodland had a 4-foot par putt on the
13th to cut the lead to 1 up with plenty of
golf course left. He never looked comfortable and ran it over the right edge, and
momentum shifted squarely back to
McIlroy.

49ers fortify offense on Day 3

SANTA CLARA After addressing
defense during the first two days of the NFL
draft, the San Francisco 49ers turned to
offense Saturday to bolster an attack that
finished 20th in the league last season.
The 49ers used six of their seven picks on
the drafts final day on offensive players,
including each of their three selections in
the fourth round.
With several holes to fill on an offense
that lost three key starters during the offsea-

NFL draft
son, the 49ers drafted defensive players
with each of their picks in the first three
rounds on Thursday and Friday.
That changed Saturday when San
Francisco, in a span of 45 minutes, added
Oklahoma tight end Blake Bell with the
117th overall pick, South Carolina running
back Mike Davis at No. 126 overall and
Georgia Tech wide receiver DeAndre Smelter
six picks later.

THE DAILY JOURNAL

San Francisco completed its 10-player

draft class by selecting South Carolina tight
end Rory Busta Anderson with the third-tolast pick of the draft.

Raiders tab Miami G, fortify defense

ALAMEDA The Oakland Raiders completed their draft by adding help on defense
and special teams.
After taking Miami guard Jon Feliciano
with their first pick on Saturday in the
fourth round, the Raiders spent most of the

final day of the draft adding defensive and

special teams help.
Oakland gained three extra picks after
trading down in the fourth round. The
Raiders then added two linebackers in the
fifth round in Kansas Ben Heeney and
Floridas Neiron Ball. Oakland took
Virginia defensive end Max Valles in the
sixth round, and used three seventh-round
picks on Tennessee State tackle Anthony
Morris, Florida kick returner Andre Debose
and Kansas cornerback Dexter McDonald.

SAN FRANCISCO Tim Lincecums fastball averages about 89 mph this season,
down from 93-95 mph when he won consecutive NL Cy Young Awards in 2008 and 09.
Even without that velocity, Lincecum has
rediscovered winning form.
Lincecum pitched three-hit ball over eight
innings, and the Giants beat the Angels 5-0
Sunday for a three-game sweep.
He really had a good rhythm, good pace
today and set the tone, San Francisco manager Bruce Bochy said. Just a terrific job.
His fastball command really can determine
how his game goes.
Lincecum (2-2) walked one and struck out
four, lowering his ERA to 2.40.
I just tried to execute with the pitches
from my gameplan, Lincecum said. I knew
they know I throw a lot of offspeed, so I tried
to pick my spots to throw the fastball.
Lincecum allowed only three runners in
the first five innings then pitched out of
two-on, no-outs jam in the sixth.
Jean Machi struck out Mike Trout and

Albert Pujols in a hitless

ninth.
Nori Aoki and Joe Panik
hit consecutive firstinning home runs off Jered
Weaver (0-4), the first time
the Giants opened a game
with consecutive home
runs since Chuck Hiller
Tim Lincecum and Duke Snider against
St. Louis off Bob Gibson
on May 27, 1964, according to STATS.
Lincecum helped the offense with a pair of
singles off Weaver. He also drew a walk off
Cesar Ramos in the sixth.
I dont know if its more confidence than
luck, Lincecum said. I dont expect to get
hits so when I do, I think thats why Im
more happy than the next guy.
San Francisco has won eight of 11 following a 4-10 start.
Weaver (0-4) gave up five runs and 10 hits in
five innings. The three-time All-Star is 0-5 with
a 6.25 ERA since beating Texas on Sept. 20.
His margin of error is not usually what it
is because of where his stuff is right now,
Angels manager Mike Scioscia said.

Theres no magic pixie dust you can sprinkle on him and get him going right now.
Aoki hit his first home run of the season
on Weavers first pitch of the afternoon.
Three pitches later, Panik homered on a
hanging curve.
Angel Pagan came within 15 feet of making it three straight when he tripled off the
brick wall in right-center, not far from where
Paniks home run landed.
San Francisco made it 3-0 in the third
when Panik singled and scored as Brandon
Belt hit into a forceout.
Brandon Crawford hit a two-run, two-out
double in the fifth.
Posey and Lincecum might be the two
most recognizable players on the Giants
roster but they hadnt worked together in a
game since April 26, 2014. Lincecum said
that the long layoff didnt seem to bother
either player.
I think hes caught my stuff enough to
know what Ive got, Lincecum said. I told
him wed just kind of read it throughout the
day and see what kind of swings they were
taking. Luckily enough it was enough to
get through the eighth.

Vogt powers Grays (effectively) wild day

By Schuyler Dixon
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ARLINGTON, Texas Sonny Gray

had a career-high seven walks against
Texas when the Oakland right-hander
never had more than four in an outing
and came into the game with just six all
season.
Unusual, right? Well, yes. But ...
So is 10 punches. I dont strike people out, neither, Gray said after overcoming the control issues to take a
shutout into the seventh inning while
Stephen Vogt homered twice in the
Athletics 7-1 victory against the
Rangers on Sunday.
The 10 strikeouts were a season
high, and two shy of the only other
time he had that many last September
against the Los Angeles Angels.
Those, along with allowing just two
hits, helped Gray (4-0) extend his
scoreless streak against Texas to 23
2/3 innings over three starts.
Gray also hit a batter and threw a wild
pitch, but still reached six wins against
Texas, the most of any opponent.
Vogt, who had a career-high four RBIs,
hit a solo shot in the sixth. He added his
sixth homer of the season, a three-run
drive in the seventh right after Texas

reliever Alex Claudio

entered for a lefty vs.
lefty matchup.

including Shin-Soo
Choo at third with

Chicago on Sunday
left Texas as the only team in the

With a 5-0 lead thanks to Vogts second homer, Oakland manager Bob
Melvin stuck with Gray after consecutive
walks to Elvis Andrus and Prince Fielder
with one out in the seventh. Gray struck
out Adrian Beltre on his 119th pitch
another career high before Dan Otero
came on to get Choo on a flyout.
Oaklands Josh Reddick extended his
career-best hitting streak to 11 games
with a single in the seventh and had a
two-run homer in the ninth.
Reddicks grounder to Andrus in the
fifth gave the As a 1-0 lead when the

allowing Eric Sogard to score.

Curry to be
named MVP
By Antonio Gonzalez
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OAKLAND Some called him too small.

Others too fragile.
Stephen Curry has another label now: NBA
MVP.
The Golden State Warriors point guard has
won the leagues most coveted individual
award, a person familiar
with the decision said
Sunday.
The person spoke to The
Associated Press on condition of anonymity because
the league has not released
the voting results. An official announcement is
Steph Curry expected Monday, and
Curry will be presented
with the award on the court before Game 2 of
the Western Conference semifinals against
Memphis on Tuesday night.
Curry had 22 points and seven assists in
Golden States 101-86 win over the Grizzlies
on Sunday. Asked about the MVP award following the game, Curry said he had no idea.
Its obviously just, in the middle of a playoff series, its hard to kind of separate yourself with other things that may or may not
happen, he said.
Obviously, I know what the situation is,
and just trying to focus on the game, and if I get
a call (Monday), Ill definitely be happy, and
there will be a lot of people that can be proud
of that moment, as well, and well enjoy it.
Comcast Sportsnet Bay Area, the official
television partner of the Warriors, first
reported Curry won. He beat out Houstons
James Harden, Clevelands LeBron James and
Oklahoma Citys Russell Westbrook, among
others, for MVP honors.

Truth About Deceptive

Cremation Practices
MILLBRAE

(This was first

published in 2010,
but its currently
needed again with
updated details)
Attacks from a
number of out of
state cremation corporations have been
waged upon our local and well respected
mortuaries. By now many of you reading
this article have been targeted by the flood
of junk advertising being spread across the
Peninsula & Bay Area by these cremation
outfits that use deceptive language to spread
their misleading message. Its no secret that
societies such as the Trident-Neptune
Corporation are using scare tactics to sway
consumers when they are most vulnerable.
Their mailings, which are many times
disguised as friendly notes, use falsehoods
to imply that their business practice just
makes sense or is much less expensive
luring in unsuspecting consumers. Their
shrewdly worded letters which use
implications such as fancy and expensive
funeral home, falling victim to pressure to
overspend, spending your familys
inheritance or up-selling are crafted to
imply some sort of dishonesty. Also, an
alluring enticement to WIN is flaunted
with tempting instructions to include your
phone number & key personal data.
The truth is that these societies are no
more than wealthy competitors to your
locally owned mortuary, and their costs are
not only comparable, but many times
MORE expensive than what your local
mortuary offers. Ive had families come to
me at the Chapel of the Highlands with
stories of being seduced by certain

game opening series against Detroit.

Montreal is 1 for 26 with the man advantage in the playoffs.

Ducks 3, Flames 0
ANAHEIM Frederik Andersen made 30
saves in his first career postseason shutout,
Matt Beleskey scored in the first period and
Anaheim remained unbeaten in the playoffs
with a 3-0 victory over Calgary in Game 2
of the Western Conference semifinals.
Hampus Lindholm scored his first career
playoff goal with 8:45 to play for the
Ducks, who have followed up their firstround sweep of Winnipeg with two solid
victories over the upstart Flames.

cremation societies with talk of lower

costs and other persuasive language. Tales
of unimpressive staff and meetings in
bunker-like facilities are common. After
comparing local mortuaries & cremation
costs it was discovered that a mortuarys
total balance can be similar or even LOWER
than these societies.
Families have
realized that it would have been much more
comforting if they had called the Chapel of
the Highlands first. Our Chapel is well
experienced and has been highly regarded
for assisting families with low cost
cremations decades before cremation-only
corporations ever existed. We are also a full
service facility offering our Chapel for
Memorial Services if desired.
My advice if you ever wish to
investigate cremation:
Do your homework and call your locally
owned mortuary first to compare costs
along with reports on good reputation;
Dont let cremation societies message
of being much less expensive or offers
to WIN fool you;
Dont turn over your phone # or personal
info to un-requested cremation solicitors;
If you must use a cremation society
find out where they are headquartered
and about any prior or active lawsuits.
Thank you for reading my rebuttal. It
bothers me that these societies are openly
using misleading language and making
blanket implications about mortuaries.
Their tactics are unwarranted and my only
desire is for the truth to be known.
If you ever wish to discuss cremation,
funerals or make pre-planning arrangements
please feel free to call me and my staff at the

had 16 turnovers.
I didnt think the game was physical at
all, Gasol said. We didnt bring it to that
point yet. I hope, the next game, we have to
bring it to our advantage.
The Warriors, coming off a first-round sweep
of New Orleans that earned them an eight-day
layoff, picked up right where they left off.
Curry pushed the pace from start to finish,
and the Grizzlies never could slow Golden
State down. The Warriors went ahead by 16 in
the second quarter, and Curry kept the pressure after Memphis moved within seven.
At one point in the third quarter, he
crossed over Randolph, stepped back for a 3
and ran down court with his arms extended
after the ball swished through to give
Golden State an 80-60 lead.
The Grizzles missed a chance to surge
back when Bogut and Green got in foul trouble late, sending the defensive duo to the
bench. Memphis never could put together a
big push against Curry and company, with
Gasol and Randolph coming out in the last
few minutes to rest up for Game 2.
Grizzlies coach Dave Joerger said he has to
do a better job of keeping at least one of his
two big men on the floor at all times, but
thought missed layups and poor offensive
execution hurt them more than anything.
You just cant keep giving those guys
shots at you, Joerger said, and I thought
thats what happened.

for the first time since 2006.

Although Calgary showed more fight after
the Ducks 6-1 win in the opener, the Ducks
methodically moved halfway to their first
Western Conference finals since 2007,
Anaheims only championship year.
Game 3 is Tuesday night in Calgary.

Blackhawks 4, Wild 1
CHICAGO Patrick Kane scored two
goals, Corey Crawford made 30 saves and
Chicago beat Minnesota Wild to take a 2-0
lead in the Western Conference semifinals.
Patrick Sharp had a goal and an assist to
help Chicago improve to 5-0 at home in the
playoffs. Jonathan Toews also scored in the
second after a big play by Marian Hossa.
Defenseman Matt Dumba scored for
Minnesota, and Devan Dubnyk made 27
saves. The Wild are winless in eight postseason games at Chicago.
The Hawks needed six games to beat
eight-seeded Brooklyn and had to open this
best-of-seven series with about a 36-hour
turnaround. After racing to a 37-26 lead after
the first quarter, Atlanta couldnt make anything in the fourth.
Even with plenty of good looks, the
Hawks shot just 5 of 28 in the final period.

Tip-ins
Gri z z l i e s : Memphis has lost three
straight to the Warriors after winning the
first matchup this season. ... The Grizzlies
are in the conference semifinals for the third
time in five years.
Warri o rs : Golden State improved to 42-2
at home this season. ... Team executive Jerry
West gave general manager Bob Myers the
NBA executive of the year award during an
on-court presentation before the game.

Allen booed
Grizzlies guard Tony Allen became a target of boos every time he touched the ball
after unknowingly walking through the
Warriors Jr. Jam Squad during a timeout in
the second quarter. Allen shook hands with
one of the youngsters afterward and laughed
when he was shown on the video board.
I just heard the first horn and I went out
there. I thought they knew to run off the court,
Allen said. Thats the least of my worries.
The Warriors certainly noticed Allens
error.
He tried to give the kid some dap and the
fans did not pay that any attention, Green
said, chuckling. I dont think he meant
anything by it, but it was hilarious.
Curry applauded the dance teams focus.
I dont think it messed with their choreography either, Curry said. They were
killing it.

Derby winner American Pharoah likely for Preakness

By Beth Harris
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOUISVILLE, Ky. Lured by the promise

of carrots, American Pharoah was led out of
the barn to face a throng of cameras.
Reluctant at first, the Kentucky Derby
winner perked up when trainer Bob Baffert
offered the colts favorite snack. American
Pharoah pricked his ears upon hearing the
click of cameras and struck a regal pose.
The good ones, Baffert said Sunday,
they love the clicks.
Now he and his fourth Derby winner are
likely headed to Baltimore for the Preakness
in two weeks, the next stop on the Triple
Crown trail. Baffert has won that race five
times, most recently in 2010.
Third-place finisher Dortmund, who led
much of the way, is probable to run in the 1
3/16-mile race on May 16, too.
The way he was traveling down the backside, I thought maybe he was going to win
it, Baffert said.
He will decide Dortmunds next race for
sure after talking with owner Kaleem Shah.

revenge, Baffert said. His horse ran a real-

Rory McIlroy chips onto the green at the 11th hole Sunday at Harding Park.

He won the 14th with a par when
Woodland left a long birdie attempted
woefully short. And he closed out the
match when Woodland blasted out of a
bunker and over the 16th green, missing the next shot and removing his cap.
My putt drops on 13 and its a different ball game, Woodland said. But
I missed that one. And he was like a

shark. Smelled blood, and it was gave

over quickly.
McIlroy was 2 down with two holes
to play and risked being eliminated
Friday when he rallied against Billy
Horschel to win in 20 holes. In a quarterfinal match that spilled into Sunday
morning, he was 1 down to Paul Casey
on the 17th hole and wound up beating
him in 22 holes.
His strongest play was in the semifinals against Jim Furyk, who put enormous pressure on McIlroy over the
closing holes by hitting four straight
approach shots close. McIlroy deliv-

other a second time.
My job is to get my people there if the

ered a birdie-birdie-eagle finish to win.

The first birdie was to halve the hole
on the 16th and avoid going 2 down
with 2 to play. He hit 7-iron to 4 feet
for birdie on the 17th to square the
match. And with Furyk facing a 20foot birdie putt, McIlroy ended the
match by rolling in a 45-foot eagle
putt across the green for a 1-up victory.
Woodland faced an early deficit to
Danny Willett of England in the semifinals until he turned it around for a 3and-2 victory. Going into the championship match, Woodland had trailed on
only 11 of the 101 holes he had played
all week.
Against McIlroy, he never led.
They halved holes with bogeys until
Woodland kept making them. His powerful driving, such a strength over four
days, deserted him in the championship match and McIlroy made him
pay for it.
In the consolation match, Willett
defeated Furyk on the 16th hole and
picked up $646,000, which will go a
long way toward PGA Tour membership if he wants it.
McIlroy won for the second time this
year and the 16th time worldwide. It
was his 10th PGA Tour victory, joining Woods (24) and Jack Nicklaus (12)
as the only players with at least 10
victories at age 25 or younger.

horse is doing well, Baffert said. They

understand that sometimes Ill beat them
with another horse. If Dortmund turns the
table on him, so be it.
He plans to keep American Pharoah and
third-place finisher Dortmund at Churchill
Downs before sending them to Baltimore,
likely on May 13.
A record crowd of 170,513 packed
Churchill Downs under sunny skies and temperatures in the mid-70s Saturday to watch a
favorite win for the third straight year.
American Pharoah rallied to overtake 10-1
shot Firing Line in the stretch and win by a
length.
On- and off-track wagering on the 13-race
card totaled a record $194.3 million, up 4
percent from the mark of $187 million set
in 2012. Total wagering on the Derby was a
record $137.9 million, a 4 percent increase
from the $133.1 million also set three years
ago.
American Pharoah came into the Derby
having run just five races, which could make
him fresher than some of his rivals if he ends
up running in all three Triple Crown races
over five weeks.

runners at home, including right fielder David
Hermosillo throwing out Juan Gonzalez the
plate on a Mahoney single to end the inning.
Merced evened the score in the top of the
second, but Mahoney pitched out of a big-time
jam. The Devils loaded the bases with no outs
and Hermosillo followed with a sacrifice fly to
center to score Jim Pernetti to tie the game 11. However, with the back runners also
attempting to tag up on the play, CSM caught
a break by appealing the tag-up play at second
base. With the runner having left early, he was
called out on the appeal. Mahoney went on to
escape the jam with the tie intact.
The game would stay even until the fourth

made a difficult play look easy as he tracked

the ball down at the wall.
In the bottom of the fourth, CSM took the
lead while setting a trend with its first of three
two-out RBI hits on the day. After a leadoff
single by Degnan, he stole second with two
outs. Then Ryan Krainz got ahead of the count
2-0 and delivered an RBI single to plate
Degnan, giving the Bulldogs a 2-1 lead.
In the fifth, CSM added on. Mastrobuoni
led off the frame with a booming oppositefield double into the left-field corner.
Gonzalez followed with a sharp groundout to
third base that looked to be an unproductive
out, but Mastrobuoni took off streaking for
third as soon as the throw went across the diamond to generate an extra 90 feet.
After a one-out walk to Mahoney,
Mastrobuoni was thrown out at the plate on
a squeeze attempt with a bunt from Dylan
Isquirdo. But Degnan came through with a
two-out single to score Mahoney. Makana
Lyman followed with an infield single that
the Merced shortstop kept on the infield,
but made an ill-advised throw to first, allowing Isquirdo to score all the way from second base, giving CSM a 4-1 lead.

Lymans infield hit knocked Merced starting pitcher Ryan Sanchez out of the game.
Sanchez took the loss through 4 2/3 innings,
but it was a singular at-bat in the third inning
that really took a bite out of his pitch count.
While the No. 3 hitter Mastrobuoni and the
No. 5 hitter Mahoney did damage with their
combined five hits, Gonzalez in the cleanup
spot saw 21 pitches in his three at-bats
against Sanchez, including a spirited 12pitch at-bat in the third inning.
After Merced turned to the bullpen,
Mahoney took his mound prowess to another
level in the late innings for CSM. He entered
the seventh inning having thrown 77 pitches, but faced the minimum through the final
three frames. At the plate, he also accounted
for CSMs final two insurance runs. In the
seventh, he scored on a two-out single by
Lyman. Then in the ninth, he doubled home
Draco Roberts to cap the days scoring.
With the win, CSM advances to the second round of the three-tiered Northern

sively we struggled. That one inning was just

not true Bulldog softball. But to have an
inning like that and still come out on top, its
a good sign.
Smith served up the biggest swing of the
bat in the third inning. After Melina
Rodriguez and Harlee Donovan each hit solo
homers in the first inning, American River
roared back in the second to tie it 2-2. But the
Bulldogs set the table in the bottom of the
second with singles from Kaitlin Chang and
Riley Wells.
Then with two outs, Smith battled through
a seven-pitch at-bat before squaring up a lowand-in fastball to crush a three-run home run
to left.
I knew I had to protect the plate, Smith
said. I knew she was going to try something
different, so I looked in and I was ready for it.
The Bulldogs added one more in the inning
on an RBI double by Berriatua. They added
another run in the third when Chang led off
the frame with her fourth home run of the year.

Lauren Berritua emerged in relief to close it
out, earning the first save for a CSM pitcher

Berriatua the state leader with a 0.43
ERA took the ball in the Saturday opener.
She didnt show her usual shutdown stuff, but
then again, she didnt have to. Despite the ace
right-hander allowing six runs (three earned)
on nine hits, CSM never trailed in the game.
The Bulldogs made some defensive miscues
in the field, including a fourth inning that saw
American River send 11 batters to the plate.
But the offense compensated by launching
six home runs in the game.

the bottom of the fourth, before rallying for
five in the fifth to win it via mercy-rule on a
two-run bomb by Lelani Akai. But it was the
leadoff home run in the fifth by Wells that
stole the show, as the freshman smiled ear-toear as she sprinted around the bases on her
first homer of the year.
In Sundays finale, Berriatua again added
plenty of drama. CSM scored three runs in the
first, sparked by a one-out single by Smith.
Then after an Akai solo bomb in the sixth
gave CSM a 4-1 lead, American River started
the seventh with back-to-back infield singles. After a groundout moved the runners up,
CSM opted to pitch to American Rivers
biggest power threat Jen Woo. Berriatua
coaxed a comebacker for the second out of the
inning; then she intentionally walked

City before the Hawks rallied for a 16-6 victory. The Hawks (31-8) chipped away with
two runs in each the fth and sixth before
breaking through with an eight-run rally in
the seventh.
In the doubleheader nightcap, Fresno City
again came from behind to win it 11-8. The
series win propels the Hawks to the second
round of the three-tiered Northern California
bracket, where they will host No. 10
Ohlone, while eliminating Skyline.
The Trojans (22-17) qualied for the playoffs by virtue of a topsy-turvy April. In the
penultimate week of the regular season,
Skyline dropped three straight to three
eventual playoff teams Ohlone, Cabrillo
and Gavilan. Closing out the regular season
with wins over Gavilan and Hartnell, however, Skyline nabbed one of four at-large
bids and went on to handle DeAnza last
Tuesday in a single-elimination play-in
game.
Sophomore right-hander Aldo Severson
worked 8 2/3 innings to earn the win over
DeAnza. He took the ball for the Trojans in
Game 2 at Fresno City, departing with a 6-2
lead after ve-plus innings of work.
Matt Seubert took the loss in relief,
allowing eight runs over 1 1/3 innings. In
the nightcap, starting pitcher Tommy
Cauleld took the loss, yielding four runs
over four-plus innings of work.

Filipinos saddened after Pacquiao defeat

By Oliver Teves
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MANILA, Philippines Sadness and disappointment gripped Filipinos after Manny

Pacquiaos defeat in his much-anticipated
fight against American Floyd Mayweather
Jr. but they still considered the boxing icon
a national hero.
Gymnasiums and other public venues
where the 12-round fight was shown for free
on Sunday lunchtime local time were quickly vacated after it was announced Pacquiao
lost by unanimous decision.
Herminio Coloma, a spokesman for
President Benigno Aquino III, said the
country still holds its head high in the
admirable fight of our National Fist.
He said Aquino thanked Pacquiao, who is
also a congressman, for being an inspiration to every Filipino who is struggling
with lifes challenges to achieve a bright
future.
Some fans said Pacquiao should retire
from boxing while others demanded a
rematch. For thousands at a plaza in
Marikina city, part of metropolitan Manila,
the party mood was dampened not just by
his loss but also a sudden downpour.
Roland Purificacion, a 45-year-old pedicab driver who watched the fight on a huge
television screen outside the Quiapo Church
in central Manila, was disappointed but
spoke for many of his compatriots when he
said Pacquiao is still the peoples champ.
He is still our hero.
Security guard Melchor Yaba, 48, said he
lost 5,000 pesos ($113), a half months
salary, betting on Pacquiao.
I cant accept that he lost. I now regret
it, he said, referring to his bet. He cannot
retire yet. Lets have a rematch.
In Pacquiaos hometown of Kiamba, a fishing and farming town in southern Sarangani
province, which he represents in Congress,
passenger mini-buses brought villagers who
have no television to watch the fight in the
towns 2,500-seat gymnasium.

Manny Pacquiao of the Philippines takes a punch from Floyd Mayweather, Jr. in the fourth
round of their welterweight WBO, WBC and WBA title fight Saturday night in Las Vegas.
Vice Mayor Bogi Martinez said the municipal government roasted a calf and pig to be
served to the crowd.
Winning or losing, Pacquiaos fights with
the worlds top boxers often lifts the spirit
of Filipinos amid troubles brought by corruption scandals, a decades-long separatist
insurgency in the south, and natural disasters such as the November 2013 super
Typhoon Haiyan that killed more than
7,000 people a month after a killer earthquake struck the same region.
Jose Luis Nepomuceno, a 62-year-old
retired congressional liaison officer,
brought along his wife to watch the fight at
the San Andres Sports Complex, one of nine
public venues the city government set up
for the public to watch the bout, partially
funded by a popular department store.
We may not be in Las Vegas, but our
hearts are there for him, Nepomuceno said.
Louis Tinsley, a 25-year-old tourist from
Manchester, England, and his fiancie, Jade
Broadhurst, were among the early birds at
San Andres eager to support Pacquiao.

In the eyes of Filipinos he is a role

model ... a very humble man, which is not
usual for a boxer. Thats his most endearing
quality, Tinsley said.
At the Manila branch of the countrys
biggest mall operator, SM, the PacquiaoMayweather fight was shown in six of its
12 theaters.
Cinema manager Rico Ramos said ticket
sales were three times bigger this time than
Pacquiaos previous big U.S. fight against
Juan Manuel Marquez in December 2012.
Hundreds of soldiers and civilian employees and their families watched the fight at
the grandstand inside the armed forces headquarters. The fight also was shown in camps
throughout the country as a morale-booster.
Chief of Staff Gen. Gregorio Pio Catapang,
congratulated Pacquiao, a lieutenant colonel
in the army reserve force, despite his defeat
because the boxer gave his best, and (that
is) what is important to us.
He gave us a good fight. Unfortunately
his opponent kept on running around, he
said.

Avengers falls short of own record

By Lindsey Bahr
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ur area is loaded with pet

lovers who become frantic when their dogs go
missing. And, the Bay Area is also
home to many tech entrepreneurs.
Its only natural that tech people
have been working on ideas to
give pet owners better tools for
relocating lost pets, especially
since we havent seen much
beyond the traditional tools
posters taped to street posts in
decades. Recent innovations have
included pet ID tags with chips or
tracking collars, but none have
seemed to take off, either due to
cost, bulkiness or pet owners
uneasiness with new technology.
The latest idea involves facial
recognition technology. Heres
how it could work. Pet owners in a
certain area say all of
Burlingame take head shots of
their pets and send the photos to a
storage cloud. Then, when someone spots a stray dog in
Burlingame, he or she takes a head
shot of that pet. If that pets photo
is on the cloud, the person who
spotted the dog will be sent owner
info and can make contact and
facilitate a happy reunion. But,
have you ever tried to corral a
stray dog? This new idea involves
getting that dog to sit still and say
cheese. Heres a simpler approach:
have your pet wear an ID tag on
their collar at all times and make
sure the info printed on that tag is
visible and current. We estimate
that as many as half of all dog
owners dont follow this simple
step. Also, get a microchip for
your pet. This form of ID will
never fall off. You can pick up a
tag or microchip at our Center for
Compassion in Burlingame; no
appointment needed for the
microchip which costs just $30
(parts and labor!) or $20 on
Microchip Mondays. If the
facial recognition technology
proves to be popular and effective,
you can bet our animal control
ofcers will be all over it.

LOS ANGELES The Avengers are mighty,

but not enough to beat themselves. The Marvel
and Disney sequel earned a staggering $187.7
million in its debut weekend, making it the
second biggest U. S. opening of all time
according to Rentrak estimates Sunday.
But Avengers: Age of Ultron failed to top
the all-time record of the first films $207.4
million debut in 2012.
Although Ultron was the only new film in
wide release this weekend, it had some significant small screen competition: The Kentucky
Derby, the NBA playoffs, and the Floyd
Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao fight.
Numbers could shift by the time Monday
actuals roll in, but it seems the robust counterprogramming may have blockaded another
record for Marvel and Disney.
Still, for Disneys head of distribution Dave
Hollis, the weekend was a spectacular result
for the film, which cost a reported $250 million to produce.
Playing on 4,276
screens, the audiences for Ultrons
debut were 59 percent
male and 41 percent
under the age of 25.
Were in rare air
here, said Hollis.
Having the second
biggest
opening
weekend in the history of the movie business is always going
to be something you
walk away overwhelmingly happy
with. The momentum
of the brand for
Marvel at this point
is really something
to take a step back
and admire.
Marvel and Disney
now boast the top
three opening weekends of all time with
Avengers and its
sequel taking the top
two slots and Iron
Man 3 in third
place.
Hollis said this is
confirmation that
these
films
are
bringing a completely different kind
of filmmaking to cin-

ema. Theyre creating events and characters

and building worlds in a way that is drawing the
attention of huge crowds.
Rentraks Senior Media Analyst Paul
Dergarabedian agreed that the failure to top the
first film is in no way a disappointment.
You have to put this into perspective.
Considering the level of competition this
weekend in the sporting world, it shows that
movie going holds its own against all other
options, he said.
Also, while the first films $207.4 million
haul might just seem like a new benchmark to
hit, Dergarabedian was quick to point out that
opening above $200 million was literally
like breaking the box office sound barrier.
Instead of a new industry standard, a $200
million opening might continue to be an
industry rarity. Ultrons future
success is not in doubt either.
These other options were single events. Avengers has a very
long playing time. This is a journey to $1 billion and beyond, he
said.

Top 10 movies
1. Avengers: Age of Ultron, $187.7 million
($168 million international).
2.The Age of Adaline, $6.3 million.
3.Furious 7, $6.1 million

Although there was no dissent when the
City Council passed its new statute, some
question the need to protect non-believers
in liberal Madison from discrimination in
the areas of housing, employment and services. Among them is Julaine Appling, the
president of Wisconsin Family Action.
I dont understand why they would add
this to that litany of protections in
Madison, of all places, she said. I
thought this was an April Fools joke.
If any minority group deserves further
protections in Madison, which embraces its
unofficial motto of 77 square miles surrounded by reality, its conservative

The 10 p.m. curfew, which was ordered
Tuesday after a night of violence, looting
and arson, drew harsh criticism from the
citys residents. About 3, 000 National
Guard soldiers were deployed to the city
along with 1,000 extra police officers,
including some from out of state.
Republican Gov. Larry Hogan said the Guard
and the officers would be leaving over the
next few days.
When I came into the city on Monday
night, it was in flames, Hogan said. We
think its time to get the community back
to normal again. Its been a very hard week,
but weve kept everybody safe. Since

vessel, which resembled an A-frame houseboat, eventually became so unsecret that
there is now a plastic model kit of the Sea

slanted sides engineers hoped would ward
off radar probes.
The Sea Shadow was the barges second
child, so to speak. A giant claw, a key part
of the submarine operation, was constructed
inside the barge while it sat in Redwood
City waters. The claw was placed aboard a
mother ship called the Glomar Explorer
which then brought it to the recovery site
where it was lowered to the ocean depths.

five days rushed to congratulate the couple on the baby. Goodwill also poured in
from the rest of the world: President Barack
Obama said he wished the family much joy
and happiness, while Canadian Prime
Minister Steven Harper said the British
royal family held a very special place in
our country.
At 21 months, George is third in line to
the throne, after his grandfather Prince
Charles and his dad William. The newborn
princess becomes the fourth in line, bumping Uncle Harry to fifth.
The last princess born so close to the
throne was Princess Anne, the queens second child, in 1950. Princesses Beatrice and
Eugenie, the daughters of Prince Andrew and
Sarah Ferguson, were fifth and sixth in line
at the time of their birth.
Thanks to a recent change in the law, the
new princess will hold her place in the line
of succession that for centuries had put
boys ahead of their sisters. That means no
younger brother will be able to overtake the

NEWS
groups like hers, said Appling. For example, she pointed to the City Councils
attempts last year to create buffer zones to
keep protesters away from abortion clinics,
which the U.S. Supreme Court later deemed
unconstitutional in a Massachusetts case.
Zach Brandon, president of the Madison

problems.
The Maryland chapter of the ACLU sent a
letter to Rawlings-Blake on Saturday alleging that the curfew was being enforced
arbitrarily and selectively to break up
peaceful protests and prevent media outlets
from providing accurate coverage of police
activity.
The curfew is having a dramatic effect
on the ability of Baltimore residents to
simply go about their daily lives free from
fear or arbitrary arrest, the letter read,
adding that its also the target of protest
and the source of new problems rather than
a solution.
More than 200 people were arrested during Mondays riots, and more than half of
those were released without charges.
Rawlings-Blake said during an appearance
Sunday on NBCs Meet the Press that
authorities are combing through videotapes
to identify looters and charge them.
the entire operation. He was able to clear up
some things for me.
The barge never left California coastal
waters and was not used to hold the recovered portion of the sub, he said. The barge
was not sea worthy enough for the open
ocean and did not have propulsion, but it
was submersible, a capability needed to get
the claw aboard the mother ship.
Contrary to some reports, no cryptographic machines were recovered, Feldman
said. According to Feldman, the 100-foot
center section of the submarine was lost
during the recovery operation in which the
claw was damaged.
The damaged claw was transferred back to
HMB-1 off Santa Catalina and returned to
Redwood City to be retted for a second
attempt, which never took place. Some
blamed press leaks for the second effort
never being attempted. But, of course, that
is mere speculation.

CLINICS
Continued from page 6
Ohio facilities to close or to stop providing
all types of abortions a victory for their
lobbying strategy, which has increasingly
substituted sophisticated outreach and
incremental legislative proposals for the
shock value of bloody fetal photographs.
Ohio Right to Life President Mike
Gonidakis says expanded access to health
care for the poor and to crisis pregnancy
counseling is also helping push abortions
down.
Its a combination of a lot of things, he
said. Our societys changing. More and
more women are choosing life.
Abortion rights advocates, however, say
Ohio has passed so many limits on the procedure affecting girls and women, doctors and facilities that many people who
want an abortion cant get one.
NARAL Pro-Choice Ohio executive director Kellie Copeland says her organization
has collected many stories of Ohio women
have to drive long distances or leave the
state to get abortions. After a clinic in Lima
closed, for example, residents there would
have to drive about an hour to Toledo or
Dayton or make a trek to neighboring
Indiana to find an open clinic. Reduced
access has also meant delays that push
women past the window for a legal, safe
abortion, Copeland said.
Ohios reputation as a politically purple
state doesnt apply to abortion, said
Elizabeth Nash, senior state issues associate for the abortion-rights nonprofit
Guttmacher Institute.
On abortion, for decades it has been
incredibly conservative, she said. Its
one of the states people look to, to see what
the next restriction is going to look like.
Since 2011, when Republicans reclaimed
both chambers of the Legislature and GOP
Gov. John Kasich succeeded a Democrat,
laws have passed banning all abortions

21

after a fetus is deemed viable outside the

womb; requiring women to undergo an ultrasound and listen to the fetal heartbeat
before an abortion; and making it difficult
or impossible to get the hospital transfer
agreement required to operate a legal abortion clinic.
Ohio Right to Life and its allies have
announced plans to introduce additional
restrictions. A twice-defeated heartbeat
bill backed by a separate group, which
would effectively ban abortions as early as
six weeks into pregnancy, also has been
reintroduced.
Tamara Mann, of Columbus, learned at 13
weeks that her fetus wasnt viable. It was a
wanted pregnancy for a woman in her 30s,
she says.
Mann said Ohios restrictive climate
added hurdles to the already heartbreaking
process of undergoing a D&C, or dilation
and curettage, which she undertook after
consultation with multiple doctors and
three rabbis.
I had a fetal heartbeat and it was very,
very hard to get medical attention in Ohio,
she said. Everyone agreed that I should
have the D&C, but my insurance companies
treated it as an optional abortion until I
fought against it, and the state forced me
through this entire informed consent issue,
which was very challenging.
Mann has taken to describing her experience as a complicated miscarriage rather
than an abortion saying the stigma and
pre-conceived notions attached to the word
hinder productive debate.
Abortion rights supporters say Ohios
legal restrictions directly affected access to
abortions in some cases. A clinic that had
trouble arranging the required transfer
agreement closed in Toledo, for example,
and another near Cincinnati stopped providing surgical abortions after a legal fight
with the state over a related issue about
backup care.
Copeland rejects the suggestion that a
reduced demand for abortions is prompting
the supply of Ohio abortion facilities to
shrink.

He said the bottlenecks in aid
delivery were slowly disappearing,
and the Nepalese government eased
customs and other bureaucratic hurdles on humanitarian aid following
complaints from the U.N.
The government has taken note
of some of the concerns that weve
expressed to them, he said.
Kai Tabacek, a spokesman for
the British charity Oxfam, said the
main problem was that Kathmandu
airport was too small to deal with
huge volume of traffic. Of course,
there have been some delays, but
these have more to do with the
challenge of moving large volumes of goods than customs.
Airport congestion was only the
latest complication in the global
effort to aid people in the wake of
the April 25 quake, the impoverished countrys biggest and most
destructive in eight decades.
Nepals geography of high
mountains and difficult road networks is always going to be a
challenge, McGoldrick said.
Airlifting goods by helicopter

right now is quite limited, he

said.
People in Nepal both in
remote villages and the capital,
Kathmandu have complained
about not seeing any rescue workers or international aid and about a
lack of temporary shelters, with
many sleeping out in the open
because of fears of aftershocks
bringing down their damaged
homes.
U.N. humanitarian officials said
that they were increasingly worried about the spread of disease.
They said more helicopters were
needed to reach isolated mountain
villages that were hard to access
even before the quake.
The true extent of the damage
from the earthquake is still
unknown as reports keep filtering
in from remote areas, some of
which remain entirely cut off. The
U.N. says the quake affected 8.1
million people more than a quarter of Nepals 28 million people.
Laxi Dhakal, a Home Ministry
official, said hopes of finding survivors had faded dramatically.

Unless they were caught in an air

pocket, there is not much possibility, he said.
Among the latest fatalities to be
counted were the 51 people,
including six foreigners, whose
remains were found in the
Langtang Valley in Rasuwa district, nearly 35 miles north of
Kathmandu. Most of the victims
were Nepalese guides, hotel owners, workers and porters.
The area, with a dozen inns near
the trekking trail, was buried by a
landslide after the earthquake.
Nepal has been shaken by more
than 70 aftershocks following the
quake, and its people remain on
edge. One brief aftershock
Saturday afternoon shook the only
paved road in the village of
Pauwathok. Residents screamed
and began to run, then stopped
when the tremor eased.

of her love for the children, who
were rescued with her and still
remain in her care.

There were not enough vehicles
to transport all of the freed captives and some women had to

I had these three kids to care for

CAR
Continued from page 1
The citys goal to reduce 30,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide could be
greatly assisted by the program thats
seeking proposals through May 14,
before the council selects a vendor in
June and implements new car-sharing
locales in August.
We have a really broad range of
measures everything from transportation to energy use. Each are very
important and significant in their own
way. So were really trying to get the
ball rolling and get as many initiated
as possible. And car sharing and electric vehicle charging stations are probably two of the most important measures and theyre ones we can play a
really strong role in, Kleinbaum said.
Location and accessibility are key
and the chosen vendor will help determine the success of the proposed
locations at College of San Mateo,
San Mateo Medical Center, Bay
Meadows Franklin Templeton headquarters, as well as at the downtown,
Hillsdale and Hayward Park Caltrain
stations. Services are also proposed
at the MidPeninsula affordable housing development at 2000 S. Delaware
St. and the Martin Luther King Jr.
Center in the North Central neighborhood.

The proposal would become part of
the 16-acre downtown parks Master
Plan update. The lengthy process to
consider long-term changes at wellused park will be discussed during a
joint study session of the City Council
and Parks and Recreation Committee
Wednesday.
This would of course become part of
the public dialogue in planning the
future of Central Park. But I have been
very encouraged by the enthusiastic
response from many of our citizens and
local veterans. I am very excited to lead
the effort to seek public support and
engage the community in ideas for an
appropriate design and location,
Freschet said.
The council will also consider forming a community steering committee
that would assist in the planning as
well as possible funding options for
constructing the memorial, Freschet
said.

Theres a social equity component

to this grant where we want to make car
sharing available to these communities. Its a great way to make access to
transportation for a community that
needs transportation but possibly
cant afford cars, Kleinbaum said.
The success of the two current car
sharing sites at 888 San Mateo Drive
and near Draper University downtown
illustrates the potential for expansion,
Kleinbaum said.
Theyre extremely well used, especially the one at 888 San Mateo Drive.
You almost never see the cars there,
theyre always out and about. So
theres a significant demand,
Kleinbaum said. As much as wed like
to keep people out of cars and [get] on
their bikes, its hard to accomplish
that. But by making this infrastructure
available to residents, its much easier
for people to use it because theyre
[accessibility is] really lacking currently.
Starting out will likely involve
about two rental cars at each site.
Depending on the success of the various locations, the city plans to install
electric vehicle charging stations at
select sites and will require the chosen
car sharing company to provide electric vehicles, Kleinbaum said.
While the city will help with marketing the expanded services, the provider
will be responsible for maintaining

ing a reservation system available

24/7, according to the request for proposals.
Costs for renting a car vary by
provider and plan. Some vehicles may
be rented by the hour while regular
users may be able to sign up for monthly or annual memberships.
The vendor will also help collect data
about drivers and their use, which the
city will study to inform potential further expansion of car sharing in San
Mateo, Kleinbaum said.
Kleinbaum said as county and city
officials continue to promote transitoriented developments in an effort to
reduce the number of people on the
road, car sharing will play a critical
role in supporting those who may prefer public transit but need occasional
access to vehicles.
This is a great alternative. Were
finding more and more in the younger
generation, that people arent as interested in owning cars, Kleinbaum said.
Theyre part of the sharing economy
that doesnt care as much about mine,
mine, mine.

regularly honors Sgt.

Gordon
Joinville, who was killed in the line of
duty 47 years ago, and Manheimer said
shes pleased his service will be memorialized as part of Freschets efforts.
We are really gratified by the
mayors initiative to formalize the
citys commemoration of those who
paid the ultimate price and laid down
their lives so that the rest of us can
enjoy our freedoms and live in peace.
As a Blue Star Military Mom as well, I
am so proud that our mayor has prioritized memorializing the cost these
brave men and women paid. People forget that our military continue to lay
down their lives on foreign lands so
that people they dont even know can
live without fear.
Freschet said to her knowledge,
Joinville and one San Mateo firefighter have been the only ones to die while
serving the city thus far.
As part of her proposal, Freschet
seeks to establish an annual event at
Central Park beginning Memorial Day
2016.
I think it would be wonderful every
year if on Memorial Day we could do
some kind of service in memory of our
fallen heroes. Sadly, as long as theres
conflict going on in the world, I think
were going to see more of our citizens
and young people losing their lives,
Freschet said.
Although its likely to take time for

any physical memorial to be constructed and implemented as part of the

Master Plan process, Freschet said she
hopes to establish an interim ceremony at City Hall.
To honor the citys public safety personnel who died while serving, staff is
also recommending the City Council
conduct an annual remembrance ceremony at its meeting that falls closest
to Sept. 11.
I feel we really owe a huge debt to
those who fought and died to preserve
our freedom and way of life, and I would
be gratified to play a part in creating a
permanent reminder of their sacrifices, Freschet said. There are many
things we do on council that people
cant get excited about, I really feel in
my heart, given the response Ive gotten so far, that this will be something
that our community can embrace.

with friends and colleagues. This is a time for new
beginnings, and you will be able to enlist the help of
many people who believe in you.

Your creativity is soaring. You will encounter someone
who will make an impact on your life and prospects.

opposition if family members are unhappy with the

way you have been handling your responsibilities. Keep
up with your chores if you want to avoid criticism.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Interacting and
networking with people who can assist you in
reaching your goals should take top priority. The more
time you spend cultivating important partnerships,
the better you will do.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) A change of professional
direction is imminent. This can lead to an important
step forward, but before you make a verbal
commitment, get promises made in ink.

options. Acting in haste could be your downfall.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Keep your
financial affairs private. A casual remark to the
wrong person will be costly, and revealing too many
details about your monetary status will leave you in
a vulnerable position.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Relationships are
highlighted. Plan to spend quality time with family,
friends or your romantic partner. The closeness
you develop will help ease your worries about your
personal security and your future.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) Your high energy
and enthusiasm will allow you to complete an
impressive number of projects. Once your workday
is over, plan to spend time outdoors in order to

unwind. A walk will reduce stress.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) Careful planning
will ensure a pleasant and productive day. Personal
issues or demanding family members will cause you
to lose focus. Stick to your agenda and focus on
getting things done.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) You will feel restless
and in need of a change. Household improvements
will have a positive effect on your attitude and
comfort, as long as you stay within your budget.

get involved at larger meetings, said
Hatamiya.
The foundation will also offer an online
survey and discussion board, one-on-one
interviews at community events as well as
focus group discussions that will engage
different cross sections of the community.
Hatamiya emphasized the importance
of receiving an extensive set of perspectives, to ensure the foundation collects the opinion of as many residents
as possible.
We want to hear from a diverse cross
section of the San Bruno community, she
said. We want everyone to feel like they
have had the opportunity to express views
by attending a meeting or going online.
Prior to the outreach process beginning, some residents have already begun
advocating for how they would like to see
the fund managed, she said.

Louis.
She was thrilled to receive the
honor in front of such a momentous crowd of her friends, competition and colleagues, she said.
It was really, really exciting,
she said.
The FIRST challenge gathered
student innovators from across
the globe to attend the a four-day
competition in late April which
allowed teams to battle their
robots, built from reusable parts,
in competitions such as those

balls into goals, and then moving

District has been suffering a structural

deficit for years, which has caused officials to approve drastic spending reductions, which may result in the closure of a
school campus and could be the impetus
for a teacher strike.
Hatamiya said some members of the
school community have expressed desire
for the foundation to contribute money
that could help the district solve its financial woes.
Another primary interest Hatamiya said
the foundation has heard is the desire to
potentially build a new community or
recreation center.
The goal of the outreach campaign is
not just to hear the most vocal members
of the community, but to consider the
opinion of all San Bruno residents,
Hatamiya said.
She said she also anticipates residents
will suggest out-of-the-box uses for the
fund that the foundation had not previously considered.
I expect there will be some really cool
ideas that we havent thought of, she
said. We will have some really exciting
choices to choose from.

goals into scoring areas.

To be selected to the Deans
List, Grown-Haeberli demonstrated leadership and commitment to
the program, made a contribution
to her team and showed a commitment to entrepreneurship, creativity as well as an ability to motivate and lead fellow team members.
Grown-Haeberli said the program has developed all those characteristics, and more, while founding and leading the TigerBots
team.
She said robotics has helped her
apply lessons in science, technology, math and engineering that
might be hard to comprehend, if
she wasnt able to view them
through the lens of robot building.

Monday May 4, 2015

Hatamiya said it is the mission of the

foundation to take the unique opportunity
offered through the fund and do something
positive for San Bruno, years after the
explosion and fire demolished a significant portion of the Crestmoor neighborhood.
Were hoping that out of the tragedy of
September 2010, we can do something to
really benefit the entire community, she
said.
The fund that the foundation controls is
distinct and separate from the $50 million
trust agreement to specifically benefit the
Crestmoor neighborhood.

Sitting at school is great, and

you learn a lot, but a lot of times
kids dont understand why skills
are important, she said. This
gives us a platform to understand
our lessons.
Grown-Haeberli, 17, founded
the robotics program at Notre
Dame High School after being the
first girl to join the all-boys
robot-building team at Serra High
School.
She said working with the guys
from Serra was at first challenging, but taught her to persevere
through the fear and reluctance she
may have initially had, on her way
to eventually becoming part of the
team.
I was a little intimidated, she
said. But Im a pretty determined
kid, so I push through it.

Waves force
cruise ship to
change course
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN DIEGO Big waves along the Southern

California coast on Sunday forced a cruise ship
to change course and led to at least 16 rescues,
authorities said.
The Carnival Imagination was forced to dock
in San Diego because the high surf and long
swells in Long Beach could make it unsafe to
keep a ships gangway connected and potentially stress the ships mooring lines, Carnival
Cruise Lines said in a statement.
Passengers scheduled to sail on the next cruise
were bused from Long Beach to San Diego. The
National Weather Service said a storm off New
Zealand churned big waves along the Southern
California coastline, creating dangerous rip currents and waves reaching 5 to 10 feet, with occasional sets up to 12 feet at south-facing beaches.

After meeting an all-girls robotics team at Notre Dame High

School in San Jose, GrownHaeberli said she was inspired to
try to introduce a similar team at
her school.
She said the collaborative nature
of the robot-building community
gave her confidence that such a
program would succeed in
Belmont, and was pleased to see
that her local school allowed the
team to form.
The school was really supportive, she said.
Building the team of 15 girls
has included a unique set of challenges, because members are committed to determining their own
destiny, and not allowing parents
or teachers to meddle in their decision-making.

Grown-Haeberlis mother Tracey

is the teams coach, and said her
greatest hurdle has been trying to
keep parents away from influencing the teams direction.
The girls said they want to do
things for themselves. They didnt
want adults doing things for
them, said Tracey Grown.
Grown-Haeberli said the experience has encouraged her to pursue
robotics or engineering in the
future, as she considers potential
colleges and careers.
I want to keep my options
open, she said. But I really like
this because I like problem-solving and I like building things.

The Solution: The DRT Method, (Disc Restoration Therapy)

The DRT Method is a 5 Step S.P.I.N.E. approach to healing & restoring
function to bulging and degenerative discs.
Spinal Decompression, Physiotherapy, Inter-Segmental Mobilization, Nutritional
Support, Exercise Rehabilitation.
The DRT Method allows for a much higher success rate by increasing hydration
and restoring health to your discs. This results in a more effective and lasting
solution to your pain. There are no side effects and no recovery time is required.
This gentle and relaxing treatment has proven to be effective... even when drugs,
epidurals, traditional chiropractic, physical therapy and surgery have failed....
Disc Restoration Therapy has shown dramatic results.

Who is a Candidate for Disc Restoration Therapy

Disc Restoration Therapy has been found to relieve the pain associated with disc
degeneration, herniated and bulging disc, facet syndrome and sciatica. It is our
opinion that patients should exhaust all non surgical/non-invasive treatments rst
before considering surgery.
