Blue Shield delays rate hike
By Shaya Tayefe Mohajer
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — Blue Shield
of California has joined other health
insurers in delaying implementation
of new rate hikes for individual pol-
icyholders, after initially declining
to do so despite a request from the
state’s new insurance commission-

Moving back the start time at
Carlmont High School may allow
students to get more sleep but it may
also cause additional traffic prob-
lems in an already congested area.
Last year, the Sequoia Union
High School District voted to
change the school start times to no
earlier than 8:30 a.m. to encourage
more sleep for teenage students.
Sequoia and Carlmont high schools,
which had not been studying the
change before, were given this year
to work with students, parents and
staff to create a transition plan and

DA: Councilwoman violated Brown Act
Prosecution unwarranted since prosecutors could not prove intent
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Menlo Park Councilwoman Kelly
Fergusson violated the state’s opening meet-
ing law by soliciting support for her mayoral
bid from two other councilmembers but pros-
ecutors could not prove her intent warranted
criminal charges.
Fergusson held serial meetings, first with
one councilmember and then another, either
personally or through an intermediary. Doing
so violated the Brown Act tenets against
majority gatherings outside of a public forum.
To merit criminal charges, however, prosecu-
tors would have to prove that Fergusson and
the others acted to deprive the public of infor-
mation and the meetings would have resulted
in a specific outcome — namely votes in her
favor for mayor, said Assistant District
Attorney Al Serrato.
Although Fergusson clinched the mayoral
vote, Councilman Peter Ohtaki did not vote
for her and prosecutors say they could not
show meetings with him and councilmembers
Richard Cline and Kirsten Keith ended with
any commitments to do so.
“We can’t file charges where the elements
aren’t met,” Serrato said after his office
announced the findings of its investigation
Sheriff: Kidnapped boy, 4, found dead in canal
By Jason Dearen
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PATTERSON — Authorities said Tuesday
they found the body of a 4-year-old boy in a
Central California canal, capping the search for
the child who was kidnapped from his home
two weeks ago.
A water department worker spotted Juliani

The District Attorney’s
Office echoed the opinion
of Menlo Park City
Attorney William
McClure that Fergusson
violated the act prior to the
Dec. 7 council rotation and
mayoral vote. Fergusson
Kelly Fergusson stepped down as mayor
Dec. 10 and the council
rescinded the vote at its Dec. 14 meeting
which Serrato said worked as a civil remedy
for the violation. Even if it hadn’t, there just
wasn’t the proof needed for a criminal case,
Serrato said.
Fergusson said she was happy to be
absolved and put the matter to rest.
“The city has many challenges ahead and
this allows us to completely focus on them,”
she said.
She called the situation an “inadvertent mis-
take.”
Serrato said it was incumbent upon her as
an elected official to learn the law and under-
go training.
After resigning as mayor, Fergusson’s
absence from ethics refresher courses came to
light. She has since been made current and an
ethics certificate is on file with the city clerk,
she said.
Cardenas’ body floating in the Delta-Mendota
Canal and called 911 around 7:30 a.m., said
Stanislaus County Sheriff Adam Christianson.
The body was found about 30 miles down-
stream from where a vehicle belonging to the
man suspected of kidnapping Juliani was recov-
ered last week. “From the very beginning, we
wanted to find little Juliani alive. That was our
goal,” Christianson said. But as the days pro-
Peter Carpenter, an Atherton resident whose
uncle helped author the Brown Act, had mixed
reactions to the decision announced yesterday.
“It’s pretty good news they did an investiga-
tion. I think it’s the first time in San Mateo
County history,” said Carpenter who brought
the complaint to the office.
“My regret in their announcing the decision
is that the new district attorney did not take
the opportunity to use it as a teachable
moment,” he said.
Instead of purely facts, Carpenter would
have preferred a strong statement from
District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe that such
violations will not be tolerated.
“The Fergusson affair is over but every sin-
gle day there are meetings and discussions,”
he said.
Wagstaffe said he understands Carpenter’s
position, but disagrees.
“If we had prosecuted the case perhaps,” he
said.
The office receives five to six allegations of
Brown Act violations yearly, he said.
He couldn’t recall any locally, or even
statewide, ever meriting criminal prosecution.
For her part, Fergusson hopes the situation
doesn’t have an adverse effect on civic duty.
“I just don’t want others to pull away from
volunteering for public service,” she said.
gressed, “we just knew that wouldn’t happen.”
Investigators have not located the suspect,
who is the ex-boyfriend of Juliani’s mother, but
they believe his body also will be found in the
canal, Christianson said.
The man, 27-year-old Jose Rodriguez, is
accused of taking Juliani from the boy’s home
in Patterson on Jan. 18. A homicide warrant has
been issued for Rodriguez, Christianson said.

Republicans target
health care law in
Congress and out
By David Espo and Philip Elliot
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Buoyed by a federal
court ruling, Senate Republicans maneuvered
for a vote to repeal the year-old health care
law on Tuesday while the party’s potential
White House contenders took turns urging
them on.
Despite the stepped up attack, Senate
Majority Leader Harry Reid said the legisla-
tion was secure. “It’s not going to go any-
where,” predicted the Nevada Democrat.
The Republican-controlled House voted last
month to repeal the law. A showdown vote is
possible as early as Wednesday in the Senate,
where Democrats are in the majority and the
bill’s opponents far short of the 60 that would
be needed to clear it.
Despite the certainty of defeat, Senate
Republican leader Mitch McConnell noted
Republicans had “pledged to the American
people” in last fall’s campaign they would
attempt to repeal the law. To fulfill that pledge,
McConnell took virtually the first opportunity
available to him in the new Congress.
The maneuvering unfolded one day after
U.S. District Judge Roger Vinson ruled the
law was unconstitutional, saying Congress
lacked the power to impose penalties as a way
of enforcing a requirement for millions to pur-
chase health insurance.
Vinson’s was the second federal court ruling
in recent months that was adverse to the law,
which has also been upheld in two other deci-
sions.

Man opens fire on pedestrians
San Bruno police are searching for a man
who jumped out of a car and opened fire on
a group of people Friday night not far from
the Caltrain station.
Officers responded to the 500 block of
Mastick Avenue at about 10 p.m. on a report
of gunshots. One of the intended victims
located by the officers told police that while
he was walking on the sidewalk with friends
they noticed a vehicle approach.
The suspect, described as a Hispanic male
in his 20s, got out of the car and opened fire
on the group, then hopped back into the car
and fled the area, police said.
The suspect is approximately 5 feet 9
inches tall and weighs 160 pounds. At the
time of the attack he was wearing dark col-
ored clothing and a black beanie. He fled in
a dark colored Honda or Toyota sedan,
police said.
Police are trying to determine if the shoot-
ing was gang related, and anyone with infor-
mation is urged to contact the San Bruno
Police Department at 616-7100.

their spray-painted marks on homes, includ-
ing exterior walls, garage doors and a few

“It looks like it happened sometime in the

came in just after midnight on Saturday.
“Our gang unit is looking into it,” Norris

Deadline for property
reassessment Feb. 15
The Feb. 15 deadline is approaching for
county property owners who wish to seek
property tax relief for the 2010 tax year,
according to Mark Church, San Mateo
County chief elections officer and assessor-
county clerk-recorder.
State law provides property tax relief to
property owners if the market value of a
property falls below its assessed value as of
Jan. 1. If a property’s market value is less
than its assessed value, the property is eligi-
ble for temporary property tax relief through
the Decline in Value Program.
The assessor must review the property to
determine if it is eligible, and if it is, the
property is temporarily reassessed at its mar-
ket value as of Jan. 1. This reassessment
automatically lowers the property taxes for
that year, according to Church.
Property taxes are due Feb. 1 and delin-
quent on April 10. Property owners are
responsible for paying the property taxes due
and making the payments on time. Applying
for a Decline in Value Review will not
exempt a taxpayer from paying the taxes
when due, according to Church.

CAIRO — Egypt’s museums and
ancient monuments, including the
Pyramids of Giza, are secure despite
upheaval in the streets, and officials
recovered nearly 300 archaeological
items that were plundered by armed
Bedouins in the Sinai Peninsula, the
government said Tuesday.
The week-old uprising, marked
by huge street protests, deadly
clashes with police, economic paral-
ysis and a mass exodus of foreign-
ers, raised fears of major theft or
destruction of Egypt’s treasures.
Some museums and antiquities were
threatened in a series of close calls.
Now, however, the Egyptian mil-
itary is protecting the pyramids, the
temple city of Luxor, the Nile
cruise destination of Aswan and
other major sites, antiquities chief
Zahi Hawass told the Associated

Military vehicles blocked access
to the pyramids near Cairo, but
Luxor’s Valley of the Kings
remained open to tourism, a chief
driver of the Egyptian economy.
Thieves broke padlocks at tomb
entrances in the ancient burial
ground of Saqqara, but nothing was
stolen or damaged, Hawass said in

TSA tests new body scanning system
By Cristina Silva
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LAS VEGAS — Federal aviation
officials are giving airport scanners
another try. This time, they are not
looking as closely under traveler’s
clothes.
The Transportation Security
Administration on Tuesday began
testing a new, more modest body
scanning system at three airports.
They hope it will assuage critics’
concerns that the nearly 500 full-
body scanners at 78 airports reveal
too much.
“We believe it addresses the priva-
cy issues that have been raised,”
TSA chief John Pistole said at a
news conference at Reagan National
Airport in Washington, one of the
airports testing the technology.
The system does not involve new
machines. Instead, it relies on new
software.
PG&E releases results of gas pipeline leak survey
By Dan McMenamin
BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE
PG&E Tuesday released the
results of a leak survey of all of its
gas transmission pipelines that it said
found the utility’s leak rates and
reporting practices compare favor-
ably with the rest of the industry.
The survey was launched in
September following the explosion
of a pipeline under a San Bruno
neighborhood that killed eight peo-
ple and destroyed dozens of homes.
The survey found 59 cases of leaks
that created a potential hazard, and
PG&E responded promptly to repair
the lines or schedule further investi-
‘Hopefully it provides a greater deterrent
to possible terrorists,who may realize ‘Ok,
they’re going to see it right there.If that shows
up, and I’m here, then I’m going to be caught.”’
The software discards the x-ray-
style image that revealed the con-
tours of the traveler’s body — the
one that left many uncomfortable at
the thought of screeners being able
to see them with the rough outlines
of their undergarments.
Now, there is just a generic image
— like the chalk outline of a body at
a crime scene.
This is how it works:

gation, according to utility officials.
PG&E also hired third-party con-
sultants to evaluate the utility’s leak
reporting practices, and the consult-
ants found that PG&E’s five-year
average rate for leaks was well below
the national average for transmission
operators and compares favorably
with similar operators of large trans-
mission pipelines.
PG&E also provided a progress
report Tuesday to the California
Public Utilities Commission on its
efforts to review and validate some
1.25 million records related to its
1,800 miles of gas transmission lines
in populated areas.
“These reports reflect our ongoing

If they have something in their
pockets or hidden elsewhere on their
body, the outline of a body appears
on the screen, and a box marks the
location of the object. If someone
had a wallet in a front pocket, for
example, the box would appear over
the hips.
The box would then trigger a
human pat-down search.
“One of the things this does is
give greater confidence to the travel-
ing public, because they are seeing
the image also. They are seeing
exactly what the security officer is

formance and effectively address any

vice president of gas engineering and
operations, said in a statement.
The utility has faced many ques-
tions about its procedures from the
public and local politicians since the
disaster struck Sept. 9, and it dealt
with more criticism following the
release of a report last month by the
National Transportation Safety
Board. The NTSB report indicated
there were faulty welds on Line 132,
which exploded under San Bruno’s

ists, who may realize ‘Ok, they’re

going to be caught,”’ he added.
On Tuesday at one of the test sites,
McCarran International Airport in
Las Vegas, TSA workers moved
through a scanner equipped with the
new software in a demonstration for
reporters. On some people, the scan-
ner picked up objects in their pock-
ets. Those carrying nothing moved
through the scanner in moments.

U.S. Rep. Jackie Speier, D-San
Mateo, said following the release of
the report that she was “profoundly
disturbed” by what she read, and said
PG&E “never once inspected the
condition of the welds.”
The acceptable operating pressure
of the gas in Line 132 has also been
called into question by the NTSB,
which issued urgent recommenda-
tions to PG&E last month.
One of the recommendations was
that the utility provide a complete
and accurate inventory of its
pipelines, especially those that run
through highly populated areas.

Big changes in Redwood City
T
he departure of Redwood City Police
Chief Louis A. Cobarruviaz was a
surprise for some, but not so much
for those who have paid attention in recent
months.
Cobarruviaz is 70 years old and has not
exhibited the same energy as he had when he
came to the city four years ago. He made the
announcement while he was on a long vaca-
tion and Capt. Ed Hernandez and Capt. Chris
Cesena will rotate as the acting chief while
the city searches for a replacement.
The decision comes on the heels of other
significant changes at City Hall, including
the sudden retirement of city manager Peter
Ingram in November, the elimination of the
deputy city manager position and the layoff
of its current office holder Magda Gonzales
as well as two demotions in the Planning and
Economic Development Department.
So are all the changes cause for concern?
Not necessarily. Ingram was named city
manager in June 2008 to replace former city
manager Ed Everett. Though he served as
interim, he was not the first choice and
arrived in the position after another search
was unsuccessful. Though he was the ulti-
mate professional with integrity, he seemed
to want to please too many people when the
city was facing difficult decisions. Was it
worth more than $200,000 to force him out?
That depends on who replaces him.

Changes to city’s
governance is overdue
Editor,
Councilman David Lim exhibits a clear
understanding of the changing conditions
impacting finances for the city of San Mateo in
the story, “San Mateo councilman wants more
oversight of city contracts” in the Jan. 29 edi-
tion of the Daily Journal. Councilman Lim has
stated that new paradigms are required in view
of the dire economic changes taking place. I
see at least a decade of severe impacts from
our diminished tax and revenue base, while the
need for city services will continue to grow.
I agree with Lim’s assessment and commend
his recommendation. The city staff has made
many adjustments in staffing levels and the
management of operational budgets. However,
closer attention by the City Council to higher
salary classifications and to some city negotiat-
ed contracts is overdue. The council can no
longer stand by and observe, but must take a
more active role. Policies are established by
the council, and improved oversight is appro-
priate.

OPINION
Editorial
Gonzales’ departure saves the city her
$179,714 annual pay and seems to indicate
that no city office is immune to cuts, particu-
larly when other departments are facing
them. And there will be more with the city
facing a $9.5 million shortfall and a
$725,000 increase in its contribution to pub-
lic retirements. There comes a time when
cuts have to hit every segment of the city
organization and perhaps the deputy city
manager position fell victim to that.
Another significant change was the depar-
ture of city attorney Stan Yamamoto in
December 2009. He was officially replaced
in June by former San Bruno city attorney
Pamela Thompson, who so far, seems to be
capable, thorough and personable. The city
has had its share of legal troubles in recent
years, particularly with development down-
town, and it was time to turn the page and
start anew. Thompson is a step in that direc-
tion.
Now, the city is aiming at a new direction
with new leadership. Interim City Manager
Bob Bell is holding down the fort, but does-
n’t seem interested in the permanent job.
That gives the City Council an opportunity to
bring in someone with a different kind of
at the 11th Annual Baywood Elementary
School Science Fair.
Just last week, the State of the Union
address included a line about celebrating the
winners of science fairs as much as the win-
ners of Super Bowls. At Saturday’s Baywood
Science Fair, each of the 260 participants will
go home with a medal and a thank you from
their parents and teachers and a high-five from
their partners. The projects by second to fifth
graders show kids reacting to their world: “Can
I blow bubbles bigger than the ones than I do
in the bathtub?” “Do dogs learn best on a full
stomach the way I do?” “Do older drivers stop
at stop signs at our local corner more than
younger drivers do?”
Last week, Intel announced five Bay Area
finalists in its science competition. These high
school students are out to change their world
— and are showing where talent and fully-
developed science and math skills can take us.
Projects delve into convex polygons, immune-
rejection pathways, hydrogen conversion and
genetic mutation. Their work already has
implications for computer vision, organ trans-
plants, fuel cell development and cosmology.
Our community and national conversations
are often about what we can to improve educa-
tion. And that’s really on display this week at
the Baywood Science Fair: students, parents,
teachers working together on unique projects
that show a process of inquiry open to the cre-
ativity and energy of students in science and
math.

experience which may not necessarily be tied
to municipalities. Mayor Jeff Ira said he was
optimistic that a new city manager would be
in place by July. That person could name a
new police chief and possibly find new ways
for the city to organize itself more efficiently.
And nothing should be left off the table.
Restructuring could take many forms and
that should include a more aggressive atti-
tude when it comes to shared services and
consolidation.
In addition to finances that every city is
contending with right now, there are many
issues in play for the city. There is the recent-
ly completed Downtown Precise Plan that
should open the door for new housing appli-
cations and the matter of the Cargill
Saltworks plan, which aims to bring 12,000
housing units to the 1,436-acre site. And the
opportunity for the city to explore further
shared services or consolidation in the
absence of a police chief is real. It should not
be squandered.
It’s easy to think that the change the city is
going through might be evidence of instabili-

tive change with new leadership and new
possibilities. Now, it is up to the City

spective “High-speed rail — Do it right!”
Yes, of course we want it done right. That
doesn’t sound like a principled stand to me.
The only way to do it right is to dig a deep-
bore tunnel, something that HSR says is off the
table. A covered trench is not a solution as it
will result in the removal of thousands of old
trees (some planted before the Civil War)
along the Peninsula corridor, the destruction of
private property through eminent domain, and
create a huge “gutter” along the Peninsula. The
aerial structure is even worse; think of the
Embarcadero freeway from the 1950s. I think
the politicians said that was “progress.” Thirty
years later the politicians said it was
“progress” when it was torn down.
Go figure. Why can’t Jerry and the rest of
the politicians just admit that:
A). We can’t afford a $50 billion to $100 bil-
lion train to Los Angeles;
B). There’s nothing technologically
advanced about 120-year old electric trains;
C). The trains will be built in China, operat-
ed by the French, and run by the Germans and
Japanese; and finally,
D). If pouring concrete and laying steel consti-
tutes the jobs of the future, we as Americans, are
all in trouble. There’s a reason private capital
won’t touch this boondoggle with a 10-foot pole.

Ethics in Planned
Parenthood’s plan
By Vicki Evans
E
conomic times are tough and not many
businesses are in an expansion mode.
But Planned Parenthood is. It’s
expanding its physical plant size, implementing
plans for increasing its professional workforce
and broadening its customer base. Moreover, it
is benefiting from significant new sources of
capital. What’s the product that puts Planned
Parenthood in this enviable position? Abortion.
Freestanding abortion clinics now provide
over 90 percent of abortions performed.
Planned Parenthood’s share of that market is 25
percent and growing, with abortion being its
most lucrative profit center. Its current business
plan entails closing down unprofitable clinics
and consolidating operations into “abortion
mega-centers.”
Over the past three years alone, abortion
mega-centers have popped up across the coun-
try. Outside Chicago, a 22,000 square-foot cen-
ter opened to community protests. This was fol-
lowed by a 46,000-square-foot center in St.
Paul, a 33,000 square-foot two-story center in
Massachusetts, and a 52,000 square-foot facility
in Denver. In 2009, Houston became home to
what is touted as “the largest abortion facility in
the world.” It is a seven-story, 78,000 square-
foot state-of-the-art building close to the
University of Houston and Texas Southern
University and within walking distance of black
and Hispanic neighborhoods.
By carefully choosing its locations, Planned
Parenthood can maximize its clientele and
increase its customer base exponentially.
University towns and economically-disadvan-
taged neighborhoods are fertile ground for
abortion sales. The economic downturn has
been turned into a positive marketing tool in
that women can more easily be encouraged to
abort because “they can’t afford a baby in this
bad economy.” Another obvious advantage of
these imposing structures is the ease of keeping
the opposition at bay. That includes sidewalk
counselors and others whose prayerful presence
outside an abortion mill would seem to imply
that there just might be something wrong with
what Planned Parenthood is selling.
A healthy influx of capital is another sign of
a thriving business and Planned Parenthood’s
future appears bright here as well. Besides prof-
its from its abortion business segment and mul-
timillion dollar gifts from family foundations
like the Buffet Foundation, the Bill and
Melinda Gates Foundation and the John D.
Rockefeller Foundation, another spigot of
almost limitless funds is available — taxpayer
dollars. To date, this pool of funds has account-
ed for about one third of its gross receipts.
Obamacare, in its present form, has the
potential to increase federal government subsi-
dies to Planned Parenthood and other abortion
providers in two ways. First, in the high-risk
pool program. The nonpartisan Congressional
Research Service issued a report confirming
that neither the health care law itself, nor the
executive order on abortion, nor the longstand-
ing Hyde Amendment prevent the use of funds
in the new high-risk pool program from being
used to cover all abortions. Second, up to $11
billion is earmarked for “community health
centers.” According to the U.S. Conference of
Catholic Bishops, there is nothing in the law to
prevent these funds from being used for elective
abortion.
Will these factors converge to create a perfect
storm for abortion-industry expansion? This is
all happening at a time when polls show that
more Americans call themselves pro-life than
pro-choice, particularly among young people. It
is also a time when San Francisco produced the
40,000-participant Walk for Life West Coast in
a city that is known for its open hostility toward
those who refuse to move in lockstep on the
road to unlimited abortion license.
The one thing that is missing in Planned
Parenthood’s business plan is ethics. This is
something people do recognize over time —
sometimes a long time. Without an ethical
foundation, it’s a house of cards.

Milestone reached
Dow has first close above 12,000 in 2 1/2 years
By David K. Randall
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — The Dow Jones
industrial average has closed above
12,000 for the first time in 2 1/2 years —
yet another sign that the economy is
extending its recovery from the reces-
sion.
Another big stock market index, the
Standard & Poor’s 500, reached a mile-
stone of its own Tuesday. It closed
above 1,300.
Investors found plenty of reasons to
send stocks sharply higher. Earnings
reports from companies including Pfizer
Inc., United Parcel Service Inc. and
Archer Daniels Midland Co. were better
than expected.
And manufacturing, which has led the
economic recovery, had another good
month in January. The Institute for
Supply Management said manufactur-
ing activity expanded last month at its
fastest pace in nearly seven years.
Increased spending by businesses and
consumers helped push the index high-
er, ISM said. And employment
improved at the nation’s factories.
“This is a good indicator that busi-
nesses have come out of the gate strong-
ly in 2011,” said Burt White, chief
investment officer for LPL Financial.
Wall Street
“We are seeing businesses spend again
and this is exactly what we needed to
see for this economy to move forward.”
The better economic data helped push
stocks broadly higher. All 10 company
groups that make up the S&P 500 rose.
The Dow rose 148.23, or 1.3 percent,
to 12,040.16. It last closed above 12,000
in June 2008, although it traded above
that level several times last week before
settling lower.
The S&P 500 gained 21.47, or 1.7
percent, to close at 1,307.59. It last
closed above 1,300 in August 2008.
The Nasdaq composite index rose
51.11, or 1.9 percent, to 2,751.19.
Five stocks rose for every one that fell
on the New York Stock Exchange,
where consolidated volume came to
4.89 billion, up from Monday’s 4.38 bil-
lion.
Before the market opened, Archer
Daniels Midland said that its profit
jumped 29 percent last quarter because
of growing demand for grains. The agri-
culture conglomerate easily beat analyst
estimates. Its stock jumped 6 percent.
UPS said its 2011 earnings will likely
top its pre-recession levels from 2007.
UPS gained 4 percent.

EA posts 3Q net loss but adjusted results solid

By Barbara Ortutay
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Electronic Arts Inc.
says its fiscal third-quarter net loss
widened as revenue fell, but adjusted
results surpassed Wall Street’s expecta-
tions. This, combined with a solid out-
look and plans for a $600 million stock
buyback, sent shares higher in after-
hours trading.
The video game publisher said
Tuesday its net loss totaled $322 million,
or 97 cents per share, for the three
months that ended in December. In the
same period last year, EA lost $82 mil-
lion, or 25 cents per share.
The company behind “Madden” and
“The Sims” said net revenue slid 15 per-
cent to $1.05 billion from $1.24 billion.
EA’s adjusted earnings, however,
came in ahead of Wall Street’s expecta-
tions. On this basis, the company earned
$196 million, or 59 cents per share, up
80 percent from $109 million, or 33
cents per share. Analysts had expected
58 cents, according to Factset.
Adjusted revenue was $1.41 billion,
up 5 percent from $1.35 billion and
helped by sales of “Medal of Honor,”
“Need for Speed Hot Pursuit” and games
for smart phones and the iPad.
Analysts had predicted $1.38 billion.
These figures exclude special items and
account for deferred revenue from
games with online components.

Gulf residents miffed by

BP resuming dividends
By Harry R. Weber
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW ORLEANS — BP’s decision to resume paying divi-

dends rankled Gulf Coast residents Tuesday who saw it as
another sign the company wants to move on even though many
are still suffering from last year’s massive oil spill.
Oil stains linger in marshes along Louisiana’s fragile coast
and tens of thousands of victims are waiting for final payments
from a $20 billion compensation fund, while a large number of
people haven’t received any money at all.
The 7 cents per ordinary share payable to BP shareholders
March 28, or about $1.25 billion overall, isn’t a lot by BP’s
standards — it’s half what the company paid investors for the
final quarter of 2009 — but Gulf residents frowned on the idea
of going back to business as usual.
“BP has so much money that we can’t really fathom it, but BP
has to take care of its obligations to us,” said Pass Christian,
Miss., shrimper Bobby Barnett.

Business brief
Google, Microsoft spar over search results quality
SEATTLE — Google is accusing Microsoft Corp. of cheating
as the two duel for Internet search supremacy, but Microsoft
denies the charge, saying it’s just using all available weapons to
lessen its rival’s dominance.
The dust-up between the two companies that process virtual-
ly all of North America’s search requests grabbed the spotlight
Tuesday at an event sponsored by Microsoft about the future of
Internet searches.
Microsoft’s practices have even wider implications now that
its technology powers Yahoo Inc. searches in the U.S., Canada,
Mexico, Australia, and Brazil as part of a 10-year partnership
that grew out of the companies’ inability to mount a serious
challenge to Google on their own.

Offensive Player
of the Year goes
to Patriots’Brady

DALLAS — Tom Brady tore up the NFL

with his precision passing and dynamic guid-
ance of the New England Patriots’ offense.
That was in 2007, when he ran away with The
Associated Press NFL Offensive Player of the
Year award.
Ditto for 2010.
Brady won the honor Tuesday for the second
time in four seasons. The record-setting quar-
terback, who had a string of 355 passes without
being intercepted, received
21 votes from a nationwide
panel of 50 media members
who regularly cover the
league. He easily beat

votes.
“To me it comes down to

said.

Capuchino holds off Colts

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Soccer coaches will tell you that a 2-0 lead
is the most dangerous score in the game. It
seems like a big lead, but one goal by the trail-
ing team means it’s suddenly back in the
game.
The first-place Capuchino girls’ soccer team
scored two first-half goals — and missed sev-
eral other golden scoring opportunities — in
a key Peninsula Athletic League matchup
against third-place El Camino. The Mustangs
dominated the first half so decisively, it felt
like their lead was actually doubled.
El Camino, relieved to be down only two,
came out looking like a different team in the
second half. The Colts pulled back one of the
goals 20 minutes into the second half, but
could not find the equalizer as Capuchino held
on for a 2-1 win.
“We dominated them the first 20 minutes.
We had three, four breakaways we missed,”
said Capuchino coach Rich Medina. “This
game should have over in the first 20 min-
utes.”
El Camino coach Imelda Winkelbauer said
the Colts, near the bottom of the Ocean
Division standings for years, may have been a
bit intimidated in the first half, knowing they
had a chance to pull into a first-place tie with
a win.
“The first half, we were playing the first-
place team and [we] were frustrated with
small errors,” Winkelbauer said. “El Camino
has never been considered a serious team. …
They’re capable of doing so much, so they do
feel the pressure.”
Capuchino (8-1-0 PAL Ocean, 24 points)
wasted little time in going on the attack. The
Mustangs had five quality shots on goal in the
See MUSTANGS, Page 14
touchdowns passes as New England went unde-
feated in the regular season.
Oddly, the Patriots did not win the champi-
onship in either of those seasons, but have won
it three other times.
Brady doesn’t sense much difference in the
guy who took New England to a 16-0 mark
back then and a league-best 14-2 this season.
“I feel our team really grew together over the
course of the season. It was a privilege to be a
part of this team,” he said. “My only disap-
pointment is that we couldn’t take advantage of
our opportunity in the playoffs, but hopefully
we learn from that and use it as motivation
toward accomplishing our goals for next sea-
son.”
What Brady is doing isn’t much different:
He’s winning, and he’s piling up dominant stats.

Winter weather taking toll on sports on all levels

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The St. Louis Blues saw plenty of
snow and ice, but no Avalanche.
The Blues’ game against the
Colorado Avalanche on Tuesday
night was postponed because of a
storm cutting a frigid path across
much of the nation.
A makeup date has not been set
for the NHL game, which would
have been the first since the All-Star
break for both teams.
The Toronto Raptors, meanwhile,
were still hoping to make it to
Atlanta for Wednesday night’s NBA
game. In the meantime, they were
stuck in Indianapolis for the second
straight day.
The Raptors were supposed to fly
out of Indy after Monday night’s
104-93 loss to the Pacers, but their
flight was canceled because of the
storm. The Raptors tried to take off
again Tuesday and instead spent five
hours aboard their chartered air-
plane before that trip was wiped out,
too.
Team spokesman Jim LaBumbard
said players passed the time on the
plane watching movies, listening to
their headsets and eating. The
Raptors planned to try again
Wednesday, but as for getting to
Atlanta in time, “it’s too early to
tell,” LaBumbard said.
The weather was fine in
California, but the storm might
cause the Boston Celtics to extend
their West Coast trip.
Coach Doc Rivers said before the
Celtics’ game at Sacramento that the
team was exploring options to get
back to Boston but would likely stay
in northern California for an extra
night because of the severe weather
moving across the country.
The Celtics were finishing up a
four-game road trip against the
Kings on Tuesday night.
Rivers said he was still thinking
about flying at least part of the way
back to Boston. But he said his team
could use the rest, so they probably
wouldn’t fly back until Wednesday.
The Celtics don’t play again until
Friday at home against the Dallas
Mavericks. There were clear skies
with temperatures reaching the 60s
earlier in the day in Sacramento.
Villanova’s women’s basketball
team was stuck in Milwaukee after
losing to Marquette. The Wildcats’
charter back to Philadelphia was
canceled.

Cal baseball seeks to avoid cutting block

By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BERKELEY — With the start of
what could be the final baseball sea-
son at California just more than two
weeks away, the players and coach-
es are looking for a monumental
victory before the first pitch is even
thrown.
Four months after baseball was
slated for elimination in a cost-cut-
ting move, people around the pro-
gram are hopeful that an aggressive
fundraising campaign can save
baseball and four other sports.
“If we can start the year off 1-0,
that will be the biggest first win
ever,” baseball coach David Esquer
said Tuesday.
In a decision announced in
September, baseball, men’s and
women’s gymnastics and women’s
lacrosse were set to be cut, while
men’s rugby was slated to lose its
varsity status and be reclassified as a
“varsity club sport,” a new category
at Cal.
Athletic director Sandy Barbour
said Tuesday that a decision would
be made within the next 10 days
whether the group “Save Cal
Sports” has raised enough money
from private donors to prevent the
programs from being cut.
Reducing the number of intercol-
legiate teams from 29 to 24 will
save an estimated $4 million a year
and affect 163 of the school’s more
than 800 student-athletes, as well as
13 full-time coaches.
The program cuts are part of a
broader campaign to reduce UC
Berkeley’s annual support for inter-
collegiate athletics from more than
$12 million today to about $5 mil-
lion in 2014.
Former Cal and major league
baseball player Doug Nickle says
“Save Cal Sports” has raised
between $12 million and $15 mil-
lion to support the five programs.
He said that would allow the pro-
grams to continue for the rest of the
college careers of the current play-
ers on the teams.
“This proves that Cal alums have
woken up and seen the problem that
comes from the budget shortfall,”
Nickle said. “It will allow the uni-
versity to honor the commitment to
students who are there.”

Sharks rally from three-goal deficit to beat Coyotes

SAN JOSE — Patrick Marleau scored a short-
handed goal with 6:05 remaining to cap San
Jose’s rally from a three-goal deficit and the
Sharks beat the Phoenix Coyotes 5-3 Tuesday
night.
Joe Pavelski scored in the closing seconds of
the second period and opening minutes of the
third to start San Jose’s comeback and Kyle
Wellwood tied it later in the third. Alex Stalock
got the win in relief in his NHL debut, making
nine saves, including a strong pad stop on a tip
by Shane Doan on the power play shortly before
Marleau’s game-winner.
Keith Yandle scored to extend his point-scor-
ing streak to 10 games for the Coyotes, but lost
the puck to Marleau in the offensive zone on the
power play.
Marleau then knocked the stick out of Kyle
Turris’ hands while getting the puck in the mid-

Ho-hum media day for Super Bowl QBs
By Barry Wilner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ARLINGTON, Texas — Ben
Roethlisberger dodged the tough
character questions the way he
avoids pass rushers. Aaron Rodgers
didn’t have to. He didn’t get any.
Roethlisberger is on the verge of
joining an elite group of quarter-
backs who are three-time Super
Bowl winners; Rodgers has yet to
play in one.
Roethlisberger has a troubled past;
Rodgers had a tough act to follow.
The two met the masses at Super
Bowl media day on Tuesday for
what turned out to be a study in con-
trasts.
Roethlisberger, who has led the
Pittsburgh Steelers to their third
Super Bowl in six years, deflected

Talk about tipping the scales: Super Bowl teams have 26 300 pounders
By Eddie Pells
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ARLINGTON, Texas — Casey
Hampton is listed at 325 pounds. The
way his jersey stretches tautly across
his biceps (and belly) suggests the real
number is north of that. Asked for his
actual weight, the Steelers nose tackle
says, “It’s 300 and change. Lots of
change.”
Hampton is one of 26 players on the
Green Bay and Pittsburgh Super Bowl
rosters who tip the scale at more than
300 pounds — an eye-popping number
made even more startling when you put
it in historical context.
Green Bay’s first Super Bowl team,
45 years ago, didn’t have a guy heavier
than 265 pounds.
Meanwhile, Mean Joe Greene, at
275 pounds, was the biggest player on
the Steelers when they won their sec-
ond of six championships in 1976.
All this largesse was roundly joked
about and brushed off during Super
Bowl media day Tuesday — as good a
“I want to be the guy people look
up to,” he said, smiling through a
beard he said will be gone by
Monday, win or lose. “I want to be
that kind of husband, father and
grandfather some day if I am lucky
enough.”
Rodgers, who is leading the
Packers to their first Super Bowl
appearance since 1998, didn’t have
anything more difficult to address
than replacing Brett Favre in 2008.
“I just wanted to be honest
through the entire time,” he said of
the will Favre-won’t Favre return
saga that was settled when the
Packers dealt their longtime QB to
the Jets. “It was a difficult situation.
It was tough to stand up every day in
front of media not knowing what
questions were coming at me and
how the fans were going to react that
day in practice. But the whole time
the organization stood by me and
they told the truth, and I told the
truth, and we moved on together.”
Speaking of moving, no one was
getting anywhere fast Tuesday
morning after a snow and ice storm
— weather suited for Pittsburgh and
day as any to celebrate all the excesses
that America’s favorite sport has to
offer. But it also brings up some
uncomfortable questions. Namely:
How’d these guys all get so big, and
could any of this really be good for
them?
“In terms of food, yeah, they eat tons
of food during their careers and they
get very big,” said dietitian Michele
Macedonio, who has worked for the
Cincinnati Bengals. “And if they don’t
do something to get back to their
healthful weight, their rate of disease is
very high.”
As for those who are using more
than food, well, that’s a statistic that
almost certainly won’t ever be properly
measured.
The supplement Creatine helps stim-
ulate muscle growth and has long been
considered an integral part of any NFL
player’s bodybuilding regimen. But
even that has its limits, while the
growth rate of the players — even
more noticeable while walking among
them on media day when they’re not

Dallas area.
And no one
bothered turning
up the heat
inside cavernous
C o w b o y s
Stadium, site of
Ben Sunday’s title
Roethlisberger game. The chill
left many play-
ers shivering. Even Roethlisberger,
who handled questions better than
he did the cold, asked for someone
to crank up the burners — to no
avail.
“You’ve got to fight through a lot
of difficult things in life, and this is
no different,” he said, referring to the
penalty he received from
Commissioner Roger Goodell after
accusations of sexual assault were
made by a 20-year-old college stu-
dent in March. The quarterback was
never prosecuted over what was the
second such set of allegations
against him. “You’ve got to keep
plugging along.”
He took about a dozen questions
covered in shoulder pads and helmets
— has been more or less exponential.
According to stats provided to The
Associated Press by Stats LLC, there
was one 300-pound player in the
league in 1970, three in 1980, 94 in
1990, 301 in 2000 and 394 at the start
of last season.
Meanwhile, the NFL does not test
for human-growth hormone and has a
banned-substances list that’s consid-
ered laughably short by the people who
run Olympic-style testing programs.
“That’s a difficult one for me to
respond to other than to say that the
sport played in my country, rugby
union, the same thing has happened
since the game went more profession-
al, since there started being more
money in it,” said David Howman, a
New Zealand native who is the director
general of the World Anti-Doping
Agency. “I look back to when I was a
kid and remember the size of the play-
ers when I was a kid. Nowadays, they’d
be lucky to make it to” a preseason
game.
on the subject,
and pretty much
stayed with the
same answer:
“That’s a shoes” of Terry Bradshaw, the quar-
reflective ques-
tion. This is not
the time for
reflection.”
Aaron Rodgers Rodgers, on
the other hand,
had no problem looking back. The
six-year pro compared his sitting for
three years behind Favre to what
Steve Young experienced in San
Francisco behind Joe Montana.
“I reached out to Steve when I
became a starter, among some other
guys, too,” Rodgers said, noting that
he has not spoken with Favre about
being a Super Bowl QB. “I wanted
to talk to a lot of guys who’d been
there and had success in the NFL.
Steve obviously had a very similar
(situation), being a guy who fol-
lowed a legend. He’s been great.
Steve has been a great guy to lean on
and he’s made time for me and is
somebody who I really appreciate.”
Young’s not a bad role model. He
Speaking of which, Packers nose
tackle Howard Green spent the presea-
son with the Redskins, where they
wanted him to play at about 360
pounds. They cut him and the Jets
picked him up but after a few more
weeks, they decided he was too heavy.
So they released him, then the Packers
signed him and, in their media guide,
they boasted that he “brings size and
bulk to the interior of the defensive
front at 6-foot-2, 340 pounds.”
He’s really more like 355 pounds. A
15-pound discrepancy. A drop in the
bucket.
“That’s cool for right now,” Green
said. “I could do better, but I’ve got to
do what I do for right now. You can’t go
into depletion mode in the middle of
the season. You’ll be weak. You’ll get
your butt kicked out here by these
guys.”
In very little danger of getting his
butt kicked by anyone is the Packers
starting nose tackle, B.J. Raji, who’s
listed at 337. His nickname: “The
Freezer” — a name he appreciates

won a Super Bowl and is in the Pro
Football Hall of Fame.
Roethlisberger, however, admitted
he wanted no part of “filling the
terback of the four-time champion
Steel Curtain team of the 1970s and
also a Hall of Famer. Bradshaw crit-
icized Roethlisberger’s conduct last
year, as well as the Steelers’ reaction
to it, noting the team traded Santonio
Holmes after his off-field problems,
but kept the quarterback.
But the two have since smoothed
over their relationship.
“Ben is making a great attempt to
change not only his perception with
media and the fan base, but the
image thing that has taken a beat-
ing,” Bradshaw said. “And he says
he’s changing, that he’s back to the
way he was raised. He said he got
carried away with winning so young.
I’ve given him glowing praise all
year and rightfully so.”
More significant than making
amends with Bradshaw was smooth-
ing over any rough spots with his
teammates and coaching staff.
even though he was an infant when fel-
low appliance and big man William
“Refrigerator” Perry was playing.
Raji returned an interception 18
yards for a touchdown in the NFL
championship game against the Bears.
“When B.J. scored, it got to rum-
bling in there. I could feel the ground
shaking a little bit,” said Packers defen-
sive end Cullen Jenkins, who weighs
305.
Raji says, “big guys, we’re always
trying to keep our weight down. You
have to stay on top of it. I have no prob-
lem with that.”
Packers defensive lineman Ryan
Pickett does.
He says his “magic number” is 338
pounds. Weigh-ins are every Thursday
and he pays $500 for every pound he’s
over.
“Right when I get on the scale, I start
having flashbacks,” he said. “It’s every-
thing. It’s, ‘Man, I shouldn’t have done
that this week. Or, why did I do this?
Or, if I hadn’t done that, I’d have been
fine.”’

significant innings. Last season, Hurst made 16 appearances,
including three starts, throwing a total of 46 innings pitched. Josh
Tupper (Sacred Heart Cathedral) is another returner who gets the
season-opening start Friday.
Nomicos is just as excited about some newcomers as well. He
said freshman Andrew Hildalgo (Mills) will — sooner rather than
later — become the Trojans No. 1 starter, but he’ll be brought
along slowly after experiencing some tightness in his throwing
shoulder. Nomicos said it’s fine and will limit Hildalgo to relief
work to start the season.
Julian Merryweather (Serra) is another arm from which
Nomicos is expecting big things.
“Pitching is one of our strengths,” Nomicos said. “This is the
deepest pitching staff I’ve had in a long time. Usually, I have two
legit starters. Right now, we have four to six starters.
“We (also) have a lot of good relievers. We have a lot of differ-
ent looks.”
Nomicos expects pitchers to thrive more this year than ever
because of the new bat regulations that take effect this season. The
metal bats players use this season have been deadened to reduce
the chance of anyone being severely hurt — or killed — by a bat-
ted ball. Nomicos expects the bats to cut down on offense, which
means less scoring and shorter games.
Offensively, the Trojans return two of the best players in the
conference in catcher Devin Kelly (El Camino) and left fielder
Mark Hoem (Mills). Kelly’s name littered the top-15 in nearly
every offensive category in conference play last season. He has
already committed to play next year at Western Kentucky.
Hoem was third-best offensive player on the team last year,
behind all-everything Lucas Hagberg and Kelly. Hoem has com-
mitted to University of San Francisco.
Rounding out the middle of the order will be Grant Nelson,
who batted .295 in conference play last season.
“They’ll be hard to pitch around this year,” Nomicos said.
It should come as no surprise to learn that players who excelled
as freshmen tend to do well their sophomore years, too, so look
for Nomicos to work a number of freshmen into the lineup
throughout the season. He won’t be, however, just throwing guys
into the lineup for the sake of getting them experience. Because
of the talent and depth, Nomicos won’t wait too long for a player
to come out of a slump because he knows there is a player wait-
ing on the bench that has the talent to fill the void.
“We’re a well-balanced team this year, from top to bottom,”
Nomicos said.

knew we weren’t going anywhere,” said Villanova’s Heather
Scanlon, who finished with 15 points in the 62-57 loss.
The Wildcats said they planned to get back to the hotel and
catch up on their studies.
“It would be a lot better stuck in the snow with our first Big
East win,” Amanda Swiezynski said. “We’re missing a lot of
school, so we’re doing a lot of homework.”
The Penn State men’s basketball team made it to
Champaign, Ill., for its game Tuesday night against Illinois
despite heavy snow.
Penn State spokesman Brian Siegrist said the team arrived
around 1 p.m. by bus from Evansville, Ind. The team’s charter
flight was diverted there Monday night because of weather
conditions in central Illinois.
The men’s Big 12 basketball game in Norman, Okla., on
Tuesday night was called off and rescheduled for Wednesday
afternoon when admission will be free.
Also postponed were the men’s and women’s Tuesday night
games featuring Southeast Missouri at Southern Illinois-
Edwardswille.
The airport in Dallas — the destination for thousands trying
to get to Sunday’s Super Bowl — was among those shut down.
Walkways outside Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas, were

MUSTANGS

opening six minutes and led 1-0 after just two minutes of play.
Capuchino had the Colts pinned deep in their own end and
earned a throw-in. El Camino could not clear the ball out of its
defensive end. The ball ended up on the foot of Capuchino’s
Melanie Medina, who slotted a diagonal pass to Stephanie
Vaquerano, who ran onto the ball and fired a shot inside the
near post for a surprising 1-0 lead.
The rest of the first half was basically Capuchino’s
Vaquerano and Allyn Benintendi taking turns on fast breaks as,
time and again, the Mustangs exploited El Camino’s offside
trap.
The one thing missing for the Mustangs, however, was the
finishing touch. Vaquerano had a shot on one of her break-
aways hit the post. She also fanned on a shot attempt on a cross
from Benintendi. The two reversed roles later in the first half
as Benintendi headed a ball wide on a perfect Vaquerano cross.
Benintendi finally converted in the 30th minute to put the
Mustangs up 2-0. The play was started by Vaquerano, who
blew by her defender and ran onto a long ball over the top of
the El Camino defense. As Vaquerano cut in toward the goal,
her shot was blocked by the El Camino goalkeeper. She could-
n’t control it, however, and the rebound rolled out to
Benintendi, who was stationed at the top of the El Camino

Brady led the NFL with a 111 passer rating. His 65.9 completion
percentage was second to Philip Rivers of San Diego — by .1.
Nobody came close to his touchdown to interception differential:
nearest was Matt Cassel at plus-20.
“I’ve been here for a while, so I’ve seen our offense evolve,” the
11-year veteran said. “We do some different things now than we’ve
done in the past. Ultimately we’re still trying to do the same thing,
which is be productive and win games.”
Receiver Deion Branch, the MVP of the 2005 Super Bowl who
returned to the Patriots from Seattle in midseason, believes Brady
gets his edge because he can be a nerd.
THE DAILY JOURNAL
The Packers, no stranger to winter chill, might even practice
indoors this week if the weather doesn’t improve.
“It’s a little too cold for me,” linebacker Clay Matthews said.
“Texas is supposed to be hot and humid. I was looking forward
to that. I am a California guy.”
Villanova’s game with Marquette was moved up two hours
in an effort to avoid the worst of a blizzard bearing down on
Milwaukee, but the Wildcats learned shortly before tip that
their charter flight was grounded until Wednesday.
The team hopes to leave sometime in the early afternoon,
contingent on the weather in Philadelphia, a spokeswoman
said.
The Nebraska women’s basketball team plays at Missouri on
Wednesday. Cornhuskers spokesman Jeff Griesch said the
team bus was rolling through whiteout conditions on Interstate
70. He didn’t know whether the team would fly or bus back to
Lincoln after the game.
Missouri has been hit by what could be the its worst winter
storm in decades, a dangerous mix of snow, freezing rain, wind
and cold. Whiteouts paralyzed Oklahoma City and the Tulsa
area, and blowing snow created drifts up to 4 feet high.
Conditions in the area were so forbidding that The Humane
Society of Missouri urged people to bring pets inside.
In the Big Ten, the Indiana men tentatively plan to play their
Wednesday night basketball game against Minnesota now that
the Gophers have landed in Indianapolis.
The Air Force women’s basketball team abandoned the skies
Tuesday, deciding to bus rather than fly to New Mexico for
Wednesday night’s game.
The storm also had an effect in the East, where Aqueduct
canceled Wednesday’s racing card. The forecast for the New
York area called for a mix of rain, sleet and ice.
penalty box. As the defense closed on her, Benintendi calmly
side footed a shot into the net.
“We had so many chances (in the first half),” said Vaquerano.
And yet at halftime, the Mustangs were only ahead 2-0.
“[El Camino must have been thinking] ‘Only two-nothing?
Wow!” Vaquerano said.
There was a glimpse of what was to come in the second half
just before the halftime whistle as El Camino (6-3-0, 18
points) just missed cutting the lead in half. Capuchino’s inabil-
ity to clear the ball out of danger resulted in the ball landing at
the foot of El Camino’s Amanda Cotla, who had no one but the
goalkeeper to beat. In her haste, however, she shot the ball
right to the Capuchino netminder.
That play, however, appeared to jump start the Colts, who
began the second half with extreme pressure on the Capuchino
defense. The Colts had a number of close chances go by the
wayside in the opening minutes of the second half, before they
scored halfway through the second half. Capuchino made the
mistake of not clearing the ball away and this time the Colts
made the Mustangs pay. A clearing attempt was intercepted by
El Camino’s Bianca Cerna about 25 yards from goal. She put
a shot on frame that clanged off the crossbar — and right to
Cerna, who calmly nodded the ball into the empty net.
Conversely, all the open space the Mustangs had in the first
half disappeared in the second as the El Camino defense tight-
ened up and limited the Mustangs’ chances. El Camino kept
pushing the rest of the half, but did not have many more scor-
ing opportunities the rest of the game.
“The second half we laid back too much,” Vaquerano said.
“Tom studies a lot,” Branch said late in the season. “We get the
bulk of it in the meeting rooms with just the players when we sit
down to go over the things that he’s been looking at. It carries over
to the practice field as well. Tom is a dork when it comes to that, so
I’m going to leave that alone, but Tom is a dork in that meeting
room.”
A dork? Hardly a description often associated with a three-time
champion quarterback married to a super model.
Brady is the only quarterback and the only active player to win the
award twice.
Vick’s comeback season led him to the Pro Bowl. After missing
two seasons while serving a federal sentence for dogfighting, then
sitting as a backup for the Eagles last season, Vick has a sensational
year. He finished fourth in passer rating with a career-best 100.2, had
21 TD passes and just six interceptions. Using his unequaled skills
as a running QB, Vick rushed for 676 yards and nine TDs.

Bartenders tap new inspiration:Beer cocktails
By Michelle Locke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Something new is on tap on the bar scene as
adventurous mixologists brew up beer cock-
tails.
“Beer as an ingredient can offer such a wide
variety of flavors,” says Jacob Grier, a drinks
blogger who tends bar at Metrovino in
Portland, Ore. “They can be sweet and malty.
They can have chocolate roast-y notes. It can
be a great complement to a cocktail.”
For most people, beer and liquor have never
been more than nodding acquaintances.
Sure, maybe you’ve had a shot with a beer
chaser here, or, in more reckless moments, a
boilermaker — in which the shot glass of
liquor is dropped directly into the pint of beer.
But the new trend goes far beyond that, with
mixologists looking for creative new ways to
blend beer and booze.
Grier was introduced to the beer cocktail
after watching Canadian beer writer Stephen
Beaumont concoct some at a cocktail event a
few years ago.
Beaumont got his inspiration from northern
France, where he says beer cocktails are sur-
prisingly common. “Once I tried a couple
over there, I just had to give making my own
creations a shot,” he said in an e-mail.
He sees beer cocktails falling into three cat-
egories — beer blends; beer mixed with
something else, such as juice, spirits or other
flavoring ingredients; or beer used as a flavor-
ing ingredient in a cocktail.
When mixing beers with spirits, it’s impor-
tant to look for harmony, like the fruitiness of
rums and most IPAs, or the aromatics of some
blonde ales and gins, says Beaumont.
Grier finds gin and herbal flavors work real-

ly well because they have the aromatics to
stand up to beer.
Grier, along with Yetta Vorobik, owner of
The Hop and Vine beer bar in Portland and
Ezra Johnson-Greenough, who runs The New
School beer blog, have organized two
Brewing Up Cocktails events and have more
planned.
One of his favorite recipes was the brewer’s
bramble, a twist on the bramble cocktail that
used a tart beer instead of lemon juice and
syrup. The drink was made with gin, black-
berry liqueur and The Bruery’s Hottenroth
Berliner Weisse, though many sour beers
would work.
One of Beaumont’s creations is the green

devil, which uses absinthe, gin and Duvel, a
Belgian beer. “I’d been wanting to build a
cocktail around Duvel for some time. Then,
while preparing dinner one night, inspiration
struck,” he says.
Sheamus Feeley, executive chef of
Farmstead Restaurant in the Napa Valley, has
been drinking beer cocktails for a while.
He recently returned from duck hunting
with friends and made bloody bulls — beef
stock, bloody mary mix and some light beer.
Some customers react with, “What’s a beer
cocktail?” but the concept is becoming more
common, says Feeley. “We can use beer as a
carrier to add complexity, depth, efferves-
cence and a lightness that doesn’t knock you
down.”
Grier is seeing beer cocktails pop up in
more places.
“I predict it’s going to be a big thing for
2011,” he says.

Martha Stewart in
the kitchen with
new baking show
By J.M. Hirsch
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — The oven is on, Martha
Stewart is in the kitchen, and class is in session.
Stewart is adding a new show dedicated to
teaching the basics of baking to the growing
list of programs her company produces for the
Hallmark Channel, the
cable network to which she
moved her daily show,
“The Martha Stewart
Show,” in the fall.
Stewart’s initial ratings
after the move were disap-
pointing, but she says they
have improved and she
Martha Stewart believes viewers looking
to learn — rather than sim-
ply be entertained — will appreciate the 13-
episode “Martha Bakes” series.
The format of the series — Stewart in the
kitchen walking viewers step-by-step through
recipes — is at odds with much of the most
popular food television today, which favors
competitions and other reality-based programs.
“I don’t think that I was put here on earth to
sing and dance while I’m cooking,” she says.
“I’m a good teacher and I think that this show
shows that and really accentuates how impor-
tant a good recipe is and how exacting a sci-
ence baking is.”
The series will cover 13 basic recipes, such
as puff pastry, cheesecake and yellow cake, as
well as ways to transform them into other
recipes.
Other Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia
series on the channel include “Mad Hungry
with Lucinda Scala Quinn” and “Whatever
with Alexis & Jennifer.” Stewart also will pro-
duce a new series for the channel starring
Emeril Lagasse.

Half-bottle for Valentine wine
By Michelle Locke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NAPA — You like red and the love of your
life likes white? No need to compromise for
love this Valentine’s Day.
Picking one of the many half-sized bottles
of wine available can make everyone happy
— and even make pairing with food easier. It
might even save you a few bucks, too.
Because maybe you want to pair white with
the appetizer and red with the entree. Or, per-
haps, you’re ready to splash out on something
serious like Chateau Latour, around $600 a
bottle, and you’d rather get the half bottle for
a mere $300.
OK, maybe not. But you could.
A surprising number of big-name wines are
available in half bottles, including Opus One
and Araujo Estate Wine, a wine so popular it’s
known as a “cult” wine.

Government advises cutting down on salt
By Mary Clare Jalonick
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The government is
telling half of the U.S. population to drastical-
ly cut their daily salt intake.
That’s the advice to consumers — and the
food industry — as the government issues new
dietary guidelines, which are the recommen-
dations behind the popular food pyramid.
For the first time, the Agriculture and Health
and Human Services departments, which issue
the guidelines every five years, are telling peo-
ple who are 51 and older, all African-
Americans and anyone suffering from high
blood pressure, diabetes or chronic kidney dis-
ease to cut the amount of sodium they eat daily
to little more than half a teaspoon.
That group includes about half of the popu-
lation and those who are most at risk of having
higher blood pressure due to the amount of salt
they eat. For everyone else, the government

The assault on salt is aimed strongly at the

Most salt consumption doesn’t come from the

The prestigious Institute of Medicine has

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said the

increase in health care costs over time.”
A number of major food makers have
announced plans during the past few years to
cut sodium in their products as pressure from
health advocates, consumers and regulators
has built.
Kraft Foods Inc., ConAgra Foods Inc.,
General Mills Inc., Heinz Co., Campbell Soup
Co. and Bumble Bee Foods Inc. are just some
of the companies that have committed to low-
ering sodium levels. But it’s often a multiyear
process to dial down the sodium, largely so
consumers do not detect the changes in taste.
Campbell’s said Monday that it now sells
over 200 lower sodium products, which they
say is eight times the number of reduced sodi-
um foods they offered five years ago.
But it’s unclear if the industry will be able to
cut enough to satisfy the new guidelines. The
Food and Drug Administration has said it will
pressure companies to take voluntary action
before it moves to regulate salt intake.

“From our perspective, it is hard to

After a legislative hearing and
inquiries following the San Bruno explo-

apparent that local fire departments did
not always have critical information on

First responders to the San Bruno
tragedy operated under the assumption
that a jetliner had crashed in the
Glenview neighborhood for 30 minutes
or more after the initial explosion
because they could not get close enough
to the epicenter of the fire due to the
extreme heat and fast-spreading fire.
Ma helped facilitate the program

students missing more class with a new
schedule with heavier traffic.
Regardless of the start time, Carlmont
officials are asking the district to study
the bus services and add additional
routes for students living in East Palo
Alto.
Sports is also an issue, one which was
recently highlighted during a debate
over adding lights to the Menlo-
Atherton field. Carlmont, like M-A, does
not have permanent lights on its athletic
fields, limiting the time of use particu-
larly during the winter. A later start time
could mean students miss more school to
make athletic games.
TAX
Continued from page 1
“This is not a tax on Foster City resi-
dents,” Koelling said. “It is a revenue
generator.”
The council did not ask to increase the
tax previously, like other cities did, out
of concern for the hotels, Koelling said.
“We are way behind the curve here,”
she said.
Revenue from the tax could generate
about $300,000 a year, she said.

gram called Pipeline 2020 after the
September explosion in San Bruno
where a 30-inch natural gas pipeline
exploded, killing eight and completely
destroying 37 homes.
The Pipeline 2020 program objectives
are to strengthen the utility’s natural gas
transmission system through a combina-
tion of targeted investments, research and
development, improved processes and
procedures and tighter coordination with
public agencies, according to PG&E.
“It is not a brand-new effort,” said
PG&E spokesman Joe Molica. “We start-
ed this in October. We’ve also reached
out to San Bruno to make it a pilot.”
The newest aspect of the program,
Molica said, is the ability to share elec-
tronic maps that can be assessed by first
responders remotely.
“We are working to enhance these
partnerships,” Molica said.
A vote is not scheduled for
Wednesday, simply a discussion. Board
President Lorraine Rumley expressed an
interest in hearing the school’s prefer-
ence but reserved any comments for the
meeting. Zamora could not be reached
for comment.
Sequoia’s plan is less complicated but
also included input from many, includ-
ing votes by employees, some parents
and 25 students, according to a proposal
penned by Principal Bonnie Hansen.
The favored plan for most groups has
school starting at 8:30 a.m. and ending at
3:40 p.m. daily.
Currently, classes at both Carlmont
and Sequoia start at 8 a.m. Under the
new rule, schools would start at 8:30
a.m. beginning next fall with a limited
number of sections beginning before that
time for students taking a seventh peri-
od. If approved, schools would have
Rick Wykoff and Charlie Bronitsky.
Both say more belt-tightening needs to
take place before voters are asked to
raise a tax.
“I’m a fiscal conservative. I don’t like
taxes,” Wykoff said.
Since guests to the city have no say in
the tax, it is not fair to them, he said.
“It is basically taxation without repre-
sentation,” Wykoff said.
Although Bronitsky said the increase
to the hotel tax would not be outrageous,
he did not support it because he said the
city needs to find cost savings elsewhere.
“There are areas and places to reduce
expenditures that need to be fully
explored,” Bronitsky said. “There has

of exploding a destructive device with
intent to commit murder, one count of
possession of a destructive device in a

explosives in an act of terrorism and two
counts of possession of a deadly
weapon.
Youshock added the extra plea of not
guilty by reason of insanity in mid-
December, following evaluations that he

THE DAILY JOURNAL
The pilot program will allow for
PG&E and first responders to work out
the kinks and software glitches, Molica
said.
“Firefighters on the front line need to
know the whereabouts of potentially
explosive pipes when responding to any
emergency,” Ma wrote in a prepared
statement. “While we strive to ensure
that future accidents like the one last year
never happen again, we are also working
with PG&E to make sure that we are pre-
pared to respond in the event future
tragedies do happen.”
Locally, fire officials sought informa-
tion related to the whereabouts of natural
gas pipelines on the Peninsula going
back almost five years. The inquiries
were made to the federal Office of
Pipeline Safety.
Fire officials wanted to know how big
the pipes were, where they were located
and how high the pressure was. The infor-
mation was sought to help form mutual
aid strategies in case of an emergency.
But the Office of Pipeline Safety only
provided the general whereabouts of the
transmission pipes with no real details,
an anonymous fire official said.
As part of its Pipeline 2020 program,
PG&E has committed to working more
closely with first responders.
“I am pleased that PG&E has commit-
ted to enhancing their partnership with
public safety agencies through their
Pipeline 2020 program, specifically pro-
viding electronic versions of their utility
infrastructure to first responders,” wrote
San Francisco’s Fire Chief Hayes-White

until March to develop the new sched-
ule.
Conversations about a later start time
grew organically within the district.
Menlo-Atherton began educating stu-
dents and parents on teen sleep habits
and needs years ago. Last year,
Woodside High School debuted stagger-
ing start times with about 60 percent of
students beginning class at 9 a.m. The
remaining 40 percent started at 8 a.m.
Both have later start times already in
place.

The mayor is not interested in making
any cuts to the fire or police depart-

“I’m not willing to chop from fire or

“Sharing the fire chief with San Mateo
