Robert Caplan likes getting

laughs in his day-to-day work.
“I use humor with my clients. Not
when they owe a lot of money,” the
Foster City accountant said. “Then
you have to be serious.”
Caplan, who lives in Menlo Park,
has always considered himself a
funny guy but didn’t focus on it
until an encounter with a friend,
Dan St. Paul, sparked his interest.
St. Paul hosts a weekly comedy
show at Club Fox in downtown
They share season tickets to the
Giants and had just finished visiting
the trophy when St. Paul teased
Caplan to get his five minutes of
material ready to be in an upcoming
show. Caplan accepted, surprising
his friend.
“What Pandora’s box have I
opened?” St. Paul joked, thinking
back.
Ground rules were set. There
needed to be material for a five-
minute set all about accounting.
Caplan took the stage in January
and did well, inspiring a new com-

chance to open for a headliner at a
later Redwood City comedy show.
Caplan took the stage again this
month, after the tax deadline, to
kick off the competition.

County sued over coastal development
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
The Committee for Green Foothills is suing
San Mateo County over its approval of the Big
Wave project which opponents say will place
the largest mixed-use development ever
planned for the coast in an environmentally
sensitive area at risk for tsunamis.
“The Board of Supervisors ignored basic
common sense in granting approval for this
project,” said Lennie Roberts of the
Committee for Green Foothills, in an
announcement of the suit filed Thursday.
The suit claims the county violated its own
coastal policies and based its approval on an
inadequate environmental review which didn’t
address key questions like sewage disposal
and the design of a residential facility in the
225,000-square-foot project.
Roberts also argued the project threatens
waterways and puts the 50 developmentally
disabled adults and 20 caregivers slated to live
in planned housing there at risk.
“Turning a blind eye to the many real dan-
gers associated with the Big Wave project will
not make them go away,” she said.

An intoxicated South San Francisco man
who struck a couple chasing a dog and a vehi-
cle while on his way to buy cigarettes at a gas
station was sentenced to 16 months in prison.
Richard Cronin, 54, pleaded no contest yes-

hit and run and the allegations he caused great
bodily injury, injured multiple victims and had
a blood alcohol level above .15. He was
immediately sentenced to 16 months in prison
but will remain in jail until a June 23 restitu-

Cronin had been sched-

continued driving, according to South San

doned the vehicle in a nearby parking lot
because of his vehicle’s damage. Police found
him hiding in the bushes and later adminis-

The pedestrians were hospitalized, the
woman with a spinal cord injury and the man
with a broken hip. The third victim in the rear-

The man was alerted to the alleged

CSU system sees record number of applications
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LONG BEACH — New data
shows that the 23-campus
California State University system
received a record number of under-
graduate applications for the com-
ing fall term.
Brown want-
ed to hold a
special election
in June to put
the tax question
to voters, but
has been unable
to get the neces-
sary Republican
Jerry Brown votes in the
s t a t e
Legislature to get it on the ballot.
He has signed bills that cut the
$26.6 billion budget deficit by
$11.2 billion by reducing spending
and transferring money between
various government funds.
Brown told cheering parents and
teachers that he was their ally in
the battle to protect education
funding in the upheaval.
“It’s going to have to be the
voice of the parents and teachers
and yes, even the school students
themselves to awaken the con-
science of California to our true
path forward, which is to invest in
the future and not steal from it,” he
said. “That’s really what’s at stake
here.”
According to figures released
Thursday, the system received about
621,000 applications from freshman
and transfer students, up from
617,000 last year.
The number of admissions
increased to 319,000, a big jump
SACRAMENTO — California
counties are one signature away
from easier access to jail financing
as they prepare to house 40,000
inmates who will be transferred
from state prisons.
The state Assembly passed a
budget bill amendment Thursday
that would allow counties to put up
10 percent of a jail’s overall cost,
rather than the current 25 percent.
The Senate already approved the
revision to AB94, which goes to
Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown for
signing.
The change would make it easier
for counties to tap into $1.2 billion
approved for jail financing by the
Legislature in 2007. That money
would help build more county jail
space as the state hands down over-
sight of some lower-level convicts
and parolees. The governor is also
trying to shift other state responsi-
bilities to counties to close the state
budget deficit.
Supporters of the amendment say
counties need more money to handle
so many new inmates, but are strug-
gling to come up with the matching
money because their revenues have
fallen amid the recession.
Assemblyman Bob Blumenfield,
D-Sherman Oaks, chairman of the
from 282,000 last year when Cal
State severely restricted enrollment
because of state budget cuts.
Cal State officials say a new
round of budget cuts has limited
admissions for fall 2011 and could
force the system to close admissions
called the legislation a technical
clean-up bill.
About half the funding from the
2007 bill has been awarded to 11
counties that agreed to match a
quarter of the cost. Those counties
cannot reapply for the 10 percent
rate if they have spent any of the
money.
Assemblyman Curt Hagman, R-
Chino Hills, was one of 14 lawmak-
ers who voted against the amend-
ment. He cited that reapplication
clause, calling it the “simple issue
of equity and changing rules during
the middle of the game.”
Under the new version of AB94,
no county could receive more than
$100 million. Assemblyman Jose
Solorio, the Democrat from Santa
Ana who authored the jail funding
bill in 2007, said Thursday’s vote
would give counties more options.
“This could provide counties
more flexibility, large, medium and
small, to be able to build out their
county jail to accommodate that
increased growth that is because
Sacramento is sending inmates to
the local level,” he said.
Republicans in the Assembly
abstained from voting to transfer
state prisoners when AB94 first
came up for vote. Assemblyman Jim
Nielsen, R-Yuba City, reiterated his
concerns about the transfer.

terms.

million in state funding in the com-
ing fiscal year as California strug-

et deficit.

The San Francisco Municipal

to the crash by not enforcing a rule

report on the July 2009 crash.

Stanford Faculty Senate
votes to invite back ROTC
PALO ALTO — The Stanford
University Faculty Senate has voted
to invite ROTC back to campus
more than four decades after the
Reserve Officers’ Training Corps
was banned from the school.
The Faculty Senate approved the
move by a 28-9 vote Thursday,
about a week after a campus com-
mittee recommended reinstating the
military program. Stanford
President John Hennessy says the
university will start discussions with
the U.S. military about the process
of re-establishing ROTC on campus.
Some students and faculty mem-
bers opposed the move, in part
because the military continues to
exclude transgender and medically
disabled individuals from serving.

Residents salvage belongings in the aftermath of deadly tornados in Tuscaloosa,Ala.
Killer twisters likely among largest
By Randolph E. Schmid
and Kristi Eaton
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Some of the killer
tornadoes that ripped across the South
may have been among the largest and
most powerful ever recorded, experts sug-
gested, leaving a death toll that is
approaching that of a tragic “super out-
break” of storms almost 40 years ago.
“There’s a pretty good chance some of
these were a mile wide, on the ground for
tens of miles and had wind speeds over
200 mph,” said Harold Brooks of the
National Severe Storms Laboratory in
Norman, Okla.
It may have been a single long-ranging
twister that battered Tuscaloosa, Ala., and
then covered the 60 miles to Birmingham,
Brooks said.
Only 1 percent of twisters reach the
most powerful readings, but Brooks
thinks several of those that left death and
destruction in Alabama and five other
states Wednesday fall into that category.
That speculation hasn’t been confirmed
yet, but if it is, it’s no wonder so many
homes were flattened and scores were
killed.

WikiLeaks suspect to be housed with other inmates
By John Milburn
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
FORT LEAVENWORTH, Kan. —
The Army private accused of passing
classified documents to WikiLeaks was
cleared Thursday to live alongside other
inmates at a Kansas military prison, a
dramatic change from his previous quar-
ters in a Virginia Marine Corps brig
sonably built structures survive them. The
typical tornado is on the ground for a
couple of miles and is a couple hundred
yards wide with half the wind speed of
the storms that barreled through the
region on Wednesday.
It was the deadliest day for tornadoes
since a series of twisters killed more than
300 people in 11 states in 1974, Brooks
added. The death toll from Wednesday
has surpassed 250 and is rising. The worst
day in recorded history for storm fatali-
ties is March 18, 1925, with 747 deaths.
“A big question is — the tornado in
Tuscaloosa and Birmingham, is it the
same one? I think they are the same,” he
said.
Chris Weiss, a tornado expert at Texas
Tech University, said the storm that
spawned that tornado formed in
Mississippi and “lasted over 300 miles,
and even for a super cell that’s pretty
long.”
Tornado outbreaks happen just about
every year somewhere in the country.
But this time conditions were just about
perfect for the series of powerful
storms, explained Jerry Brotzge, a sen-
ior research scientist at the Center for
Analysis and Prediction of Storms at the
University of Oklahoma. He noted that

his cell.

evaluation given to new inmates at the

also was almost a mile wide.
Brooks noted there was a trough in the
mid-levels of the atmosphere over the
western U.S., with a strong jet stream
coming across the southern U.S. A trough
to the west means winds blowing to the
south, turning and then moving back
north at the same time a powerful jet of
wind blows from the west above.
And that, explained Brotzge, results in
an area “to the east of the trough where
you have warm, moist southeast winds at
the surface and strong dry winds from the
west above ... that creates the perfect sce-
nario for strong thunderstorms” and tor-
nadoes.
Why was there such an active weather
pattern?
“Causes are always difficult to assign,”
Brooks said. “A little bit has probably
been the weakening La Nina in the
Pacific, but not all weakening La Ninas
are associated with lots of tornadoes, and
we get lots of tornadoes in other situa-
tions as well.”
La Nina is an unusual cooling of the
water in the tropical Pacific Ocean that
can change weather patterns around the
world. The federal Climate Prediction
Center said last month that La Nina con-
ditions were weakening but could contin-
ue to affect weather for months.

At Quantico, Manning had to surren-

Manning’s attorney and supporters said
that was unnecessary and argued his liv-

from other inmates, were inhumane.

Obama’s new national security team
By Anne Gearan and Robert Burns
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The reshuffled national
security team President Barack Obama intro-
duced on Thursday will be charged with fight-
ing not only the overseas war in Afghanistan
but also budget battles on the home front over
Pentagon spending that has ballooned into a
fat target for deficit hawks.
His own re-election campaign approaching,
Obama turned to a cast of familiar and
respected officials for the most sweeping
reworking of his national security team since
the opening weeks of his presidency. He
invoked the political upheaval and violence
roiling the Middle East, the nearly 10-year-old
Afghan war and the hard cost-cutting deci-
sions ahead as the country tries to reduce its
crushing debt.
“Given the pivotal period that we’re enter-
ing, I felt that it was absolutely critical that we
had this team in place so that we can stay
focused on our missions, maintain our
momentum and keep our nation secure,”
Obama said at the White House.
In the biggest change, CIA Director Leon
Panetta will replace Defense Secretary Robert
Gates when Gates makes his long-planned
exit this summer. In remarks introducing the
Cabinet and Afghan war leaders, Obama also
bade farewell to Gates after a tenure begun
more than four years ago under President
George W. Bush.
Gen. David Petraeus, the high-profile com-
mander of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan,
will replace Panetta at the CIA in the fall, after
helping to manage the first steps of a draw-
down of U.S. troops in Afghanistan over the
summer.

Marine Corps Lt. Gen. John Allen will suc-
ceed Petraeus as the top commander in
Afghanistan, and seasoned diplomat Ryan
Crocker will take over as ambassador there.
The new team in Kabul will manage the
planned shift toward a back-seat role for the
United States and its NATO partners, as
Afghan security forces gradually assume
responsibility. Both Allen and Crocker have
experience with a similar transition in Iraq,
and with the effort there to broker deals with
former militants and political rivals that U.S.
officials want to mirror in Afghanistan.
“These are the leaders that I’ve chosen to
help guide us through the difficult days

ahead,” Obama said in the White House East
Room with Gates, Panetta, Petraeus and other
top officials by his side.
“I will look to them and my entire national
security team for their counsel, continuity and
unity of effort that this moment in history
demands.”
There are no new names among the group
— all are current or former government offi-
cials with long resumes in Washington or in
battle zones — and the long-pending reorgan-
ization is less a shake-up than a rearrangement
of a team the White House credits with an
orderly winding down of the Iraq war and the
troop buildup in Afghanistan.

Bomb hits Pakistan navy
bus in Karachi; five dead
KARACHI, Pakistan — A road-
side bomb hit a bus taking Pakistani
navy employees to work in Karachi
on Thursday, killing five people in
the third such attack this week and
just days after the army chief
claimed to have “broken the back-
bone” of militants.
Within hours of the bombing, the
Pakistan Taliban, the country’s
deadliest militant group, claimed
responsibility for the latest Karachi
explosion.
The series of attacks in the coun-
try’s largest city and economic heart

Editorial
Board is conducting an extensive investiga-
tion and the U.S. Attorney’s Office is in the
beginning stages of gathering information for
a possible case.
There have been five town hall meetings
hosted by U.S. Rep. Jackie Speier, D-San
Mateo, and there will likely be many more in
the coming months and years. It will take
significant time to recover from this tragedy
and the information exchange from the town
hall meetings is an important piece of the
recovery process. They also provide a greater
sense of community for those affected by it
so they know they are not facing this process
alone.
Individual struggles still persist, but the
conversation is now moving from seeking
answers to ensuring a responsible path from
tion to the display of yellow ribbons in
Burlingame, but, as is the case for all of us,
there was more to Seth than met the eye. I
worked with him for many years on local tele-
vision productions of a Peninsula-based public
affairs show. He was adamant and often stub-
born, and he was willing to irritate just about
anyone, but he also was funny, thoughtful and
very, very human. He had the courage of his
convictions, even the unpopular ones, and he
was passionate about civil rights, the common
good and public transit, having served for sev-
eral years on the SamTrans Citizens Advisory
Committee.

Solving the oil problem
Editor,
The Mideast is in turmoil, we are not allow-
ing drilling in Gulf area, nor Alaska. Oil, gaso-
line and food prices are going through the roof.
We won’t allow nuclear power generation to
expand. One out of five people are out of
work. The value of the dollar is rapidly shrink-
ing. In response to the above, the president is
sending lawyers to investigate price gouging.
Does the president think that adding more
bureaucrats is going to our financial mess? Is
the president getting bad advice? Is the presi-
dent getting good advice and not listening?
Does the president really think that lawyers
can solve our problems?

this point. It has not been an easy road, but
the attention and concern from elected offi-
cials and residents has been key to ensuring
progress when it comes to rebuilding not
only homes, but lives as well as ensuring
similar tragedies do not happen again.
Concern over pipeline safety is at the highest
level it has ever been and the changes that
arise from this tragedy will undoubtedly cre-
ate assurances for everyone across the coun-
try. PG&E has also taken steps to meet the
calls for change with the fund for San Bruno,
the recent resignation of its CEO Peter
Darbee and investigation into its own

While there is encouraging news coming
out of the community of San Bruno, there is
a continued need for vigilance and attention
as the federal investigations go through their
respective processes and more is discovered
about the cause and necessary changes.

While many aspects of his story are likely
factually correct, the statements of permanence
applied to human alterations on the landscape
are inaccurate. While it is true that conversion
of thousands of acres of tidal marsh to salt pro-
duction ponds “destroyed wildlife habitats,”
they are not gone forever. Thousands of acres
of salt ponds that had been tidal marsh have
been successfully converted back into valuable
habitat for ducks, shorebirds and endangered
clapper rails. Fredricks is incorrect that the cre-
ation of salt ponds “exterminate[d] the migra-
tory patterns of the birds forever in the South
Bay and at the same time eliminate[d] the most
beautiful sites that could be found anywhere.”
Rather, the birds and beauty were greatly
reduced, and waited patiently for the restora-
tion of salt ponds to tidal marshes by a wiser
generation. The Bay is a dynamic system and
inherently impermanent.

New leadership needed
Editor,
Maybe it’s time for the residents of San
Carlos and Belmont to consider a recall of
some of their leaders. When the people speak
out to deaf ears it may be the time for imme-
diate changes.Turning deaf ears to their con-
stituents does little to enhance future confi-
dence. Some of these elected officials were
elected without opposition. Some have had lit-
tle if any previous experience in local govern-
ment. Experience is indeed a wise teacher, but
learning on the job presents too great a risk for
present and future residents of San Carlos and
Belmont. There are serious issues at stake.
These good people of two fine cities deserve
more and their patience is running thin.

The truth behind
pensions,overtime
By Edwin Hawkins
W
hen people, politicians or news
media discuss police and fire serv-
ices, the two “elephants in the
room,” all they talk about
are pensions and overtime
costs. The pension issue is
simple. It was very afford-
able for employers to pay
into the pension system for
decades. Then the invest-
ment bankers and their
willing accomplices in the
federal government had
their way and the stock market crashed. This
drove the cost of pension obligations through
the roof and our local governments have been
suffering since. It is not the employees fault
anymore that it is the employers’ fault. The
overtime matter is a different problem and it is
a bit more complicated.
Peninsula cities introduced the idea of having
employees work mass quantities of overtime in
the early 1990s. Before that, employers carried
extra staff to fill in for other employees on
vacation, sick leave or disability leave. Through
this system, overtime was virtually non-exis-
tent.
Then the employers devised a scheme to
eliminate the extra staffing and fill the vacan-
cies with other employees working overtime.
Each city devised a system for selecting the
employees and most employees stepped up to
fill the overtime slots. But make no mistake
about it. The overtime plan is mandatory. If no
one steps up, management simply forces some-
one to work it.
The employers figured it was cheaper to fill
spot vacancies with overtime than to keep a
full-time employee around to fill them as they
occurred. For many years, that math did not
work out that well and it ended up costing
employers more. But when the economy tum-
bled and pension costs went through the roof,
the math began working out nicely for employ-
ers. Most cities froze hiring and forced the
employees to work even more overtime. When
more cost reductions are needed, employers,
like Redwood City and Burlingame, simply cut
off the overtime and shut down fire stations on
certain days.
When the overtime idea first appeared, most
employee groups strongly opposed it. The offi-
cial union position is overtime is bad and safe
staffing is better. In San Mateo, the idea caused
so much turmoil the firefighters went to the bal-
lot box to try to get an arbitration measure
passed so they could have more tools to fight
off the new overtime scheme.
While the official union position regarding
the mass amounts of overtime remains
unchanged, our members embraced the idea
once they got used to it. Many of our members
began saving money for kids’ college, increas-
ing savings and doing other things to improve
their standard of living. The firefighters are not
home much but they are making more money.
The systems the cities use to fill the overtime
slots does work well to generate volunteers but
never forget that if no one volunteers, it’s all
mandatory. It is a windfall for the employees,
but a bigger benefit for employers. Today, there
is a mathematical balance between staff levels
and overtime that helps the employers keep
costs as low as they can be.
Unfortunately, the media and some politi-
cians have never gotten the concept. The latest
fashion craze is to bash public employees and
the overtime issue is one of the prime tools the
bashers use. Some newspapers treat it as a scan-
dal and publish what appears to he very high
salary levels for police and fire employees.
Politicians bemoan the costs and blame the
employees. What the politicians who bash us
don’t get, and the media won’t get, is that it was
not our idea. Overtime is bad, it’s mandatory
and the employees have no say in the matter.

Stocks rise modestly
By Chip Cutter

1,530.80 THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Stocks closed at
another 2011 high Thursday despite
modest U.S. economic growth in the first
quarter.
The economy grew at a 1.8 annual rate
between January and March. That’s the
weakest rate since last spring. Higher oil
prices cut into consumer spending and
bad weather slowed down construction
projects.
Stocks rose modestly as investors bet
that the economy would grow at a faster
annual rate once gasoline prices stabi-
lized.
The S&P 500 rose 4.82 points, or 0.4
percent, to 1,360.48. The Dow Jones
industrial average rose 72.35, or 0.6 per-
cent, to 12,763.31. The Nasdaq compos-

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CINCINNATI — Households reeling
from gasoline near $4 also face bigger bills
for everything from changing their babies’
diapers to wiping their noses to treating
themselves to ice cream.
Major makers of everyday consumer
products and groceries say they have to
raise prices to offset soaring costs for their
fuel and the materials and ingredients that
go into their products.
Retailers are trying to pass that along at
the cash register, adding pressure on a
sluggish U.S. economic recovery.

due to rising costs for raw materials.
Sprint Nextel Corp. rose nearly 7 per-
cent. The company added twice as many
wireless subscribers in the first quarter
as analysts had expected.
Viacom Inc. rose 3.6 percent. The
owner of MTV and Paramount Pictures
reported that its income grew 53 percent
thanks to popular shows such as “Jersey
Shore” and an improved advertising
market.
Exxon Mobil Corp. fell 0.5 percent
even after the oil giant reported its best
quarterly earnings since 2008. The
world’s largest publicly traded company
earned $10.65 billion in the first quarter,
up from $6.3 billion in the same period
last year.
Steve Quirk, senior vice president of
the trader group at TD Ameritrade, said
investors have come to expect strong
earnings from Exxon, so even a solid
quarter doesn’t necessarily lift its stock
price. “The anticipation is so high right
now,” he said.

Unilever PLC (Dove soap, Ben & Jerry’s

soap); and PepsiCo Inc. (soft drinks, Frito-
Lay snacks).
Even as corporate results were being
analyzed on Wall Street, the news about
Main Street wasn’t encouraging. The U.S.
Commerce Department reported that eco-
nomic growth slowed in the first three
months of the year, while unemployment
benefit requests climbed again last week.
So while companies have seen better
results in the past year after battling for
frugal shoppers with

tough to find much

49ers take LB at No. 7 Panthers take Newton

By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SANTA CLARA — The San

Francisco 49ers looked past big-
name Missouri quarterback Blaine
Gabbert and picked his lesser-known
defensive teammate instead.
Soon, the Niners could feature
incumbent quarterback Alex Smith
on one side of the ball and new rook-
ie Aldon Smith on the other.
San Francisco believes it found
something special in Aldon Smith,
who visited team headquarters lead-
ing up to being selected by the club
with the No. 7 overall pick in the
NFL draft Thursday night. The 49ers
also showed they may go the free
agency route to fill their void at quar-
terback. Alex Smith, the No. 1 over-
all pick in 2005, has been extended
an “olive branch” as general manag-
er Trent Baalke put it last week and
the free agent was expected to meet
with the team Friday — the first day
players can talk with coaches, work
out at team facilities and look at their
playbooks since
the lockout was
lifted this week.
“I did talk to
Alex today,” said
coach Jim
Harbaugh, a for-
mer NFL quar-
terback who has
Aldon Smith said he would be
eager to guide
Smith. “He’s coming by tomorrow.”
Aldon Smith returned to the field
for Missouri after missing only three
games with a broken right leg. He
hadn’t even fully healed yet.
That toughness told the 49ers a lot
about his game and spirit.
“I think I let people know I had a
heart, that I love the game and I’m
not a wimp,” Smith said. “I’m a
tough guy.”
The 6-foot-4, 263-pound Smith is
slated to be a strong-side outside
linebacker as part of a unit led by
superstar All-Pro Patrick Willis.
Another former Mizzou star, defen-
sive end Justin Smith, also helps
anchor a San Francisco defense that
underachieved last season.
The Niners were expected to
upgrade the defense with their top
pick. Smith provides an athletic,
long-limbed pass rusher who set Big
12 Conference freshman records for
sacks and tackles for loss in 2009. He
finished with 17 career sacks in his
two college seasons for the Tigers.
Harbaugh called Aldon Smith’s
wingspan “Dwyane Wade-like, it’s
almost eight feet.” He will be given
the opportunity to compete for a
starting job right away on a team that
hasn’t had a winning season or
reached the playoffs since 2002.
San Francisco had high hopes of
capturing an NFC West title last sea-
son but instead followed up a perfect
preseason by losing its first five on
the way to a 6-10 record. Coach
Mike Singletary was fired with one
game left and Baalke and team pres-
ident Jed York hired Harbaugh away
from nearby Stanford to turn the
franchise back into a winner.

Colts, CSM Giants’Vogelsong beats Pirates
fall short
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The Cañada baseball team went into yester-
day’s season finale with a chance to capture its
second straight Coast Conference-Pacific
Division title. In their way was a team from
Cabrillo College who knew that a win would not
only deny the Colts the title, but would propel
them to a second-place tie with the team from
Redwood City.
In the end, Cabrillo’s desire proved to be
greater, battling back from a 6-3 deficit to take a
7-6 lead in the bottom of the seventh. Then, after
the Colts tied it up in the eighth, Cabrillo scored
an unearned run in the bottom of the night to
steal the win.
A Cañada loss, coupled with a 10-3 Ohlone
win over Skyline, means the reigning state
champions from Ohlone have supplanted the
Colts as the top team in the Pacific division
heading into the playoffs.
Cabrillo’s Cedar Morgan started the game and
went five innings, leaving the game with a 3-2
lead. Two innings later, Cañada put up a four-
spot, tagging Josh Rodriguez to take a 6-3 lead.
But Cabrillo strung together five two-out hits
in their half of the frame and benefitted from a
balk and an error to regain the lead. Cañada tied
it up in eight following a home run by Chris Pile.
Down at Ohlone, the Renegades seized con-
trol of their game against Skyline and never let
up. They scored three runs in the third and had
doubled that lead by the end of the sixth inning.
The loss dropped the Trojan to fourth place in
the Coast Conference-Pacific with a 12-12
record to end their season.
The College of San Mateo ended their season
with a 10-3 win over Gavilan, but one game
behind Chabot College in the Coast Conference-
Golden Gate Division. That means that for the
first time in 10 seasons, someone other than the
Bulldogs will claim the division title.
Mark Hurley and Joe Goldenberg had three
hits a piece with Hurley driving in three of the 10
San Mateo runs. Clay Bauer went six strong
innings to collect his sixth win of the season.

PITTSBURGH — After almost five years
of playing in Japan, Salt Lake, Lehigh Valley
and other spots, simply being announced as a
starting pitcher in the majors once again was
quite the thrill for Ryan Vogelsong.
“It was a sense of accomplishment for me
before the first pitch had even started,” he
said. “I was fighting it a little bit not to find
myself getting too relaxed, you know?”
He settled in just fine.
Vogelsong won while making his first big
league start in almost seven years, pitching
effectively into the sixth inning against his
former team and leading the San Francisco
Giants over the Pittsburgh Pirates 5-2
Thursday.
“Thousands of times,” Vogelsong said, “I
wondered if i was ever going to pitch in the
big leagues again, let alone get a chance to be
a starter again and win a game.”
Vogelsong (1-0) made his first start since
Sept. 29, 2004, when he was with Pittsburgh.
He spent three seasons in Japan after last
appearing in a game for the Pirates in June
2006, then spent last season playing for the
Triple-A teams of the Philadelphia Phillies
and Los Angeles Angels.
Vogelsong signed a minor league deal with
the Giants this past offseason and had his con-

Vogelsong had made two relief appearances

“He came into spring training and he

Bruce Bochy said “The way he was throwing

We just didn’t have a spot for him.
“He did a great job. I’m happy for him,

More allegations against Braves coach
By Charles Odum
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ATLANTA — Baseball said Thursday it
would await information from the Atlanta
Braves before considering disciplinary action
against pitching coach Roger McDowell,
whom a fan accused of making crude com-
ments and gestures and threatening him with a
baseball bat.
McDowell apologized after the Braves’ 7-0
win Wednesday night at San Diego. The alle-
gations stemmed from a game in San
Francisco last weekend.
Major League Baseball spokesman Pat
Giants 5, Pirates 2
The 33-year-old
Vogelsong tied a career
high by striking out eight
in 5 2-3 innings. He gave
up two runs on four hits
and two walks.
Brian Wilson pitched the
ninth for his seventh save.
San Francisco had lost five
of its previous six.
Ryan
Vogelsong Aaron Rowand had
three RBIs and stole home
as part of a double steal. He hit a two-run dou-
ble during the Giants’ four-run third.
Neil Walker had three hits for the Pirates,
who have lost three of their four home series
this season.
“He did a good job of keeping guys off bal-
ance,” Walker said of Vogelsong. “I was fortu-
nate enough to hit a couple of barrels on him,
but for the most part he was down in the zone
and threw a lot of good pitches today.”
After a two-out double by Walker in the first
that drove in Lyle Overbay, Vogelsong went
through a run of retiring 14 of 16 batters
before sixth, during which he was lifted after
allowing an RBI groundout by Ryan Doumit.
Vogelsong had about 25 family and friends
on hand. A native of eastern Pennsylvania, he
met his wife in Pittsburgh.
“It feels really good,” Vogelsong said. “That
was my main focus today was just to go out
there today and put up a good start, give us a
chance to start swinging the bats and guys
came big through for me today.”
The Giants rank 13th in the NL in runs and
were coming off a shutout loss Wednesday.
Their big inning Thursday came while not
getting many hard-hit balls during the third off
Jeff Karstens (2-1).

are still gathering informa-

Mike Fontenot led off with a single and Eli
Whiteside followed by getting hit by a pitch.
Vogelsong reached when Karstens unsuccess-
fully tried to get the lead runner on a bunt,
loading the bases.
That set up Rowand’s double just inside the
third base bag.
“It doesn’t matter who gets it,” Rowand
said, “but as a team when you’ve been strug-
gling to get big hits, it helps everybody take a
deep breath, step back and relax.”
With one out and after an intentional walk,
Pablo Sandoval grounded to short, but
Pittsburgh was unable to turn a double play, so
Vogelsong scored.
Rowand made it 4-1 when he came across
as part of a double steal with Sandoval.
Doumit’s throw went into center field on the
play — the catcher’s poor throw was one of
four Pirates errors.
“We got a couple breaks in the big inning,
that’s what helped us today,” Bochy said. “But
it’s good to get those breaks and get a big
number.
“When you’re not swinging the bat, you try
to think of ways you can create runs.”
The Giants’ fifth run came in the seventh, an
inning in which Pittsburgh committed two
errors.
Only two of the five runs charged against
Karstens in his 6 2-3 innings were earned.
“We beat ourselves today, Overbay said. “If
we are going to be where we want to be, we
can’t do that kind of stuff.”
NOTES: Originally drafted by the Giants,
Vogelsong was the primary piece of a trade to
get ace Jason Schmidt from Pittsburgh in
2001.... Zito was cleared to put weight on his
right foot for the first time in 11 days. He no
longer will require crutches or a boot to deal
with his foot sprain and could be cleared to
resume baseball activity in one to three weeks.
Braves and commissioner Bud Selig informa-
tion that another fan came to her with com-
plaints of verbal abuse from McDowell.
Quinn, a 33-year-old fan from Fresno, said
McDowell’s comments were made Saturday
during pregame batting practice at AT&T Park
in San Francisco. Quinn said he attended the
game with his wife and 9-year-old twin
daughters when McDowell said to three men
in the stands, “Are you guys a homo couple or
a threesome?”
Quinn said McDowell made crude sexual
gestures with his hips and a bat, and Quinn
said he shouted to McDowell, “Hey there are

Red Wings,Sharks renew playoff rivalry
By Josh Dubow
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN JOSE — The Detroit Red Wings team
that will take the ice in San Jose for a second-
round playoff series is very similar to the
group that lost to the Sharks in five games at
this stage a year ago.
There’s one major difference.
Instead of being drained by a seven-game,
first-round series like they were a year ago,
the Red Wings begin this series well rested
and extremely healthy after sweeping Phoenix
in the opening round.
“It’s a completely different series, different
teams, different circumstances,” Sharks coach
Todd McLellan said. “If we fall into that trap
of looking back to last year we’ll sorely regret
it. They’re a healthier team they’re much more
rested. They’ll have a revenge factor. There’s
a lot of things that will be different this year.
Our team will have to be very cognizant of
that.”
Both teams are well aware of the difference
a year makes. Last year, the Red Wings won a
Game 7 in Arizona and flew that night to San
Jose. They took one day off to rest before
starting a series against a rested Sharks team.
Celtics, Heat knew they were on collision course
By Tim Reynolds
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MIAMI — Long before the playoffs began,
even before this season started, the Miami
Heat and Boston Celtics both suspected the
same thing.
A postseason matchup was inevitable.
Sure enough, they were absolutely correct.
“It’s finally here,” Celtics forward Paul
Pierce said.
Want drama? This Eastern Conference
semifinal series will have it in bunches.
Miami’s Big 3 vs. Boston’s Big 3. Dwyane

SPORTS
San Jose won three straight one-goal games
to open the series, overcoming third period
deficits in the last two wins and went on to
win the series in five games.
“It was tough,” defenseman Brad Stuart
said. “You go from an emotional seven-game
victory, one day off and you’re right back at it.
We just got behind the eight ball a bit and
never caught up. You never want to admit it,
but we were a little fatigued from everything.
It’s nice to come in fresher this time.”
The Red Wings finished off the first round
April 20, giving then eight full days off
between series compared to the three for the
Sharks, who eliminated Los Angeles in six
games.
That could make rust the issue early in
Game 1 this year.
“It’s always a concern,” coach Mike
Babcock said Thursday. “But I’d rather have
that concern instead of playing last night.”
The time off has given the Red Wings time
to heal some injuries. Johan Franzen, who led
the team with 28 goals in the regular season,
has recovered from an injured left ankle that
forced him to miss Game 4 against the
Coyotes. Leading scorer Henrik Zetterberg is
also back after missing the entire first round
think no laughing will be going on. ... It’s
going to be a fight.”
The best-of-seven starts Sunday in Miami.
They danced around the topic for days, nei-
ther the Heat nor the Celtics wanting to say
they were hoping to face off in the Eastern
Conference semifinals, and certainly not say-
ing it before Miami finished off its first-round
series with the Philadelphia 76ers.
No need for caution anymore. The matchup
the Heat, the Celtics — and probably most of
the NBA — wanted is going to happen.
“I think we always felt it would happen at
some point,” James said. “We didn’t know if it
was going to be first round, second round,
Eastern Conference finals. But we always felt
that at some point we would have to go
through Boston and play Boston to get where
we want to get. So it’s here now.”
Celtics coach Doc Rivers echoed those sen-
timents.
“We assumed, when they put this team
together, at some point that if we wanted to
put another banner up that we were probably
going to have to go through them,” Rivers
said.
Boston won three of the four regular-season
with an injured left knee.
“They’re going to be healthier,” Sharks
defenseman Dan Boyle said. “They’re going
to be better and they’re going to be probably
more motivated. Had we faced Chicago we
would have had that little extra oomph in our
step. I’m sure they’ll have that. We’ll have to
be better than we were last year to beat them.”
This is the third time in the past five years
that these teams have met in the second round,
with Detroit winning in six games in 2007 and
the Sharks taking last year’s series in five.
These teams have seemingly been on a col-
lision course the last seven years as they have
top two records in the regular season in that
span. The franchises have combined for 11
division titles and four Presidents’ Trophies in
that span.
The similarities go beyond the standings as
the Sharks have tried to emulate the Red
Wings by hiring McLellan, a former Detroit
assistant, as their head coach three years ago.
Both teams rely heavily on puck possession
and have three talented lines that can score
goals at any time. The Sharks got at least five
goals from each of their top three lines in the
opening round, while Detroit had 13 players
score goals in its four games.
meetings, though only one wound up being
decided by double digits — that being
Miami’s 100-77 home win over the Celtics on
April 10. Two of the matchups came in the
season’s first two weeks, when the Heat were
still in the earliest processes of jelling.
So it seems fitting — their seasons started
against one another in Boston on Oct. 26, and
in one case, will end against the other.
“This is what we came here for,” said Heat
forward Chris Bosh, who’ll make his second-
round debut in this series. “We’re still on our
journey. And we know that we have a long
way to go. And the reward is a battle with
Boston. That’s going to be a long, long series.
We have to start the process ... and just keep
our heads in it, start getting mentally prepared
for them.”
For Wade, ousting Philadelphia on
Wednesday and winning the first-round series
in five games was particularly sweet.
The last time he won a playoff series was
2006, the NBA finals against Dallas, and he
famously sat down in Boston’s arena last
spring to vow that he would not be part of
another first-round defeat “for a while.”
On that front, so far, so good. He and James

“We have fairly similar teams,” Zetterberg
said. “We play similar ways in terms of struc-
ture. They’re always good battles. We’ve
played these guys so many times. You know
everyone, you know what to do, you know
what you don’t want them to do. It’s going to
be a great battle. It always is
This will mark the sixth time in the past
seven years that one of these teams has made
it to the Western Conference final, with the
only exception coming in 2006 when
Edmonton beat Anaheim.
While the Sharks lost their two trips to the
conference final, falling to Calgary in 2004
and getting swept by Chicago last year,
Detroit has made it to the Stanley Cup final in
2008 and ’09, beating the Penguins for the
title in that first trip.
The Sharks have had the upper hand of late,
winning seven of the last nine meetings start-
ing with last year’s playoff. But none of that
will matter come Friday.
“You can wipe that right out the window,”
San Jose forward Devin Setoguchi said.
“Every year is different. It’s a new series, a
new season. It doesn’t matter how many
games we won against them the last two
years. It’s going to be totally different in this
series.”
shook hands Wednesday night when Wade
recalled that story, Wade saying “Appreciate
it,” and James responding with, “You’re wel-
come.”
Of course, just getting into the second round
won’t suffice, either.
“As a player, it seems like an eternity to
think back to ’06,” Wade said. “We’re in ’11
now. I pulled things from that, as in, moments
in games and understanding what it takes, but
I don’t really look back too much and refer-
ence too much from that. It’s a different time,
different players, different moment.”
In Boston’s case, it’s mostly the same play-
ers — and a familiar moment.
Pierce, Allen, Garnett and Rajon Rondo
were part of the Boston team that won a title
in 2008 and nearly did it again in 2010, losing
a road Game 7 to the Los Angeles Lakers in a
memorable finals. They understand the stakes,
and point to experience as a potential edge in
this series.
“They’re the (higher) seed, so I don’t see
them being the underdog,” Rivers said. “I
don’t see us being the underdog. And I don’t
care, honestly. It’s two good teams and let’s
play.”

NFL gives teams,players OK to work again ROUNDUP
By Dave Campbell
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MINNEAPOLIS — Finally, the NFL is get-
ting back to football.
Five days after a federal judge declared the
lockout was illegal and nearly seven weeks after
it began, the NFL said players can talk with
coaches, work out at team headquarters and look
at their playbooks.
The NFL said all of that can begin Friday,
when it is also expected to release detailed guide-
lines for free agency, trades and other roster
moves in the absence of a collective bargaining
agreement.
“That’s great news,” said linebacker Joe Mays,
one of 10 Denver Broncos players who showed
up at the team’s headquarters Thursday. “It’s
something we’ve been trying to do, get back to
work.”

Roger Goodell,” Miller said. “I just want to
make sure football continues to get played.
When I walked across the stage, I was meeting
the commissioner. That was it.”
It was a strange opening for what normally is
a festive occasion. In this offseason of labor
strife, the league’s first work stoppage since
1987 temporarily ends Friday. The 32 teams
will resume business in compliance with U.S.
District Judge Susan Richard Nelson’s order to
lift the lockout.
But the lockout could be back in place if the
NFL wins an appeal. If that happens, Newton,
Miller and all the players chosen Thursday
night would be thrown back into a labor limbo.
For now, they will be allowed to report to
their teams, meet coaches and get playbooks.
Contract negotiations are uncertain until the
league announces its rules for the 2011 season
— rules that might be in force for only a short
time if an appeal is granted.
The draft was never in danger of being held
because it was protected under the old collective
bargaining agreement that expired in March.
Moments before it began, Goodell requested a
moment of silence for victims of the vicious
storms that decimated part of the South on
Wednesday. On stage, he was surrounded the
SPORTS
Fans, too, are desperate
for a football fix.
On Thursday night, fans at
the NFL Draft in New York
roundly booed NFL com-
missioner Roger Goodell
when he first appeared on
the stage and repeatedly
chanted: “We want football.”
Roger Goodell Goodell acknowledged
the fans, saying “I hear
you.”
The promise of football was a welcome step
forward on a day members of the Tennessee
Titans showed up to find two armed security
guards at their locked-up facility, no sign of their
new coach. New players in particular will benefit
from the new guidelines.
“These rookies, there’s a lot going on for
them,” New York Giants center Shaun O’Hara
Auburn and Alabama stars and their coaches.
As for the stars, none shined brighter than
Newton, who has shown he can handle the heat
of a spotlight. He turned in a sensational 2010
season while the NCAA investigated his
recruitment. Newton’s father, Cecil, has admit-
ted soliciting money from Mississippi State dur-
ing the recruiting process, but said neither the
player nor Auburn knew about the pay-for-play
attempt.
With the third pick, Buffalo selected Alabama
nose tackle Marcell Dareus, who gave Goodell
an even bigger hug. Of course, Dareus weighs
308 pounds, about 70 more than Miller — and
at least 100 more than Goodell.
Cincinnati, perhaps calling the bluff of quar-
terback Carson Palmer, who is demanding a
trade, instead took the top receiver in this crop,
A.J. Green of Georgia.
Arizona, also in need of a quarterback, select-
ed the top cornerback available, Patrick
Peterson of LSU.
The labor strife caused speculation not many
trades would be made Thursday. But just six
picks in, Atlanta cut a massive deal with
Cleveland and moved up from No. 27 to grab
Alabama receiver Julio Jones — the fifth
Southeastern Conference player in the first six.
“We knew it was going to be an aggressive
move and cost us,” Falcons GM Thomas
Dimitroff said. “As an organization we felt very
strongly about the move for a player who truly
adds the explosive, urgent athleticism we’re
looking for ...”
said. “So any info they can get, any things they
can study, is good. If the lockout happens again,
they’ll have plenty to study from their teams.”
That’s certainly what the NFL wants.
The league has asked the 8th U.S. Circuit
Court of Appeals in St. Louis to restore the lock-
out as soon as possible. The court is considered a
friendlier venue for businesses than the federal
courts in Minnesota.
The NFL wants an immediate stay of U.S.
District Judge Susan Richard Nelson’s decision
on Monday to lift the 45-day lockout so it can
argue that it should be overturned altogether. The
players were told to respond to the league’s
motion for a stay by midday Friday, and the
NFL’s reply to that is due on Monday morning.
Michael Gans, the appeals court clerk, said a
three-judge panel for the appeal had not been set.
Goodell said he feared the fight could last for a
while.
The Browns received the Falcons’ first-
rounder, second- and fourth-rounders, plus their
first pick and fourth-rounder in 2012.
San Francisco chose defensive end Aldon
Smith of Missouri to bolster a weak pass rush,
then the second quarterback was selected:
Washington’s Jake Locker to Tennessee.
That began a small run on passers. After
Dallas went for offensive tackle Tyron Smith of
Southern California with the ninth pick.
Jacksonville saw a chance to get its future
quarterback. The Jaguars moved up six slots for
Missouri’s Blaine Gabbert, dealing their first-
round pick and a second-rounder to
Washington.
“You really don’t have any idea where you
will go, especially with the lockout,” Gabbert
said. “But the trades are happening now.”
Houston bolstered its weak defense with
Wisconsin end J.J. Watt at No. 11 before yet
another QB was chosen: Florida State’s
Christian Ponder, who impressed Minnesota
with his workouts leading up to the draft.
Auburn DT Nick Fairley, once projected as a
top-three selection, was chosen 13th by the
Lions. It was a head-scratcher because the
Lions already have a star defensive tackle in
Ndamukong Suh, the 2010 defensive rookie of
the year.
St. Louis, undeterred by Robert Quinn’s lost
season — the linebacker-end was suspended
from North Carolina for his role in an agents
scandal — took him at No. 14.

Newcomb made quick work of Half Moon
Bay’s Myles Donahue, 6-2, 6-2 then took care of
Burlingame’s Riley Chadwell 6-3, 6-3 to reach

Pang was even more efficient, dropping only

walk but also recording a strikeout.
San Mateo (3-8, 7-14) starter R.J. Asuncion
was making his first league start of the season
following a solid pitching performance in a
tournament over spring break. He worked out
of trouble in the first and second innings,
stranding Capuchino runners at second and
third each time.
In the third, the Mustangs finally made
Asuncion pay. After a spectacular diving grab

Saucedo showed she doesn’t really need it to
hit.
“My teammates helped me out, saying it
was inside or outside, so I looked for those,”
she said. “And when she jammed me, I knew
she was going to go outside and she did and I
just pulled through.”
The three-run sixth for Burlingame marked
the end of a crazy inning for both teams, as
they turned a pitcher’s duel into a hit/error

that kids don’t belong at a ballpark, then

him, “How much are your teeth worth?”

third inning, Cecci reached on an error and
promptly stole second. Molina followed with
a walk to bring up Faubel. On a 1-1 offering,
Faubel launched a home run over the fence in
left field to put Capuchino up 3-0.
“[Asuncion] was in trouble in the first, he
got out of it. He was in trouble in the second,
he got out of it,” Velez said. “Then that guy
hits that three-run home run, which means
there were guys on base. It’s only a matter of
time. You put people on and that hit is com-

San Mateo appeared it would make a game
of it when the Bearcats got on the scoreboard
in the fourth inning, cutting their deficit to 3-
For innings one through five, Burlingame
pitcher Megan Ailand and her Half Moon Bay
counterpart Lyndsay Klimenko controlled the
game.
Klimenko gave up a run in the first on a
throwing error that allowed Nicki Lunghi to
score after she hit a leadoff double and was
attempting to steal third. But after that,
Klimenko settled down nicely and was the
beneficiary of some questionable base run-
ning by the Panthers in the bottom of the
fourth.
But if Klimenko was good, Ailand was bet-
ter. The right hander, who’s seen limited
action this season, retired the first 10 Half
Moon Bay hitters. Her bid for a no-no was
negated on a bunt single by Channie
Anderson.

McDowell from another fan.
“This may not be an isolated incident,”
Allred said in a telephone interview. “I have
been contacted by another fan in another state
who alleges another incident.”
Allred said the second incident “involved
what the fan believed to be angry and inap-
propriate words directed at him and his wife
who had her young children with her. This fan
has authorized me to supply his information to
the commissioner.”
1. Daryl Semien walked to lead off the inning,
followed by Omar Noriega’s single to left.
Both runners moved up 90 feet on Matt
Erlick’s groundout and Semien scored on
Manny Jois’ groundout.
That momentum was short-lived, however.
After Capuchino was retired in order in the
fourth for the only time in the game, the
Mustangs broke it open with a four-run fifth.
Molina, Christian Bautista, Jake Steenvoorde
and Davis all had RBIs in the inning to put the
Mustangs up 7-1.
San Mateo got one of the runs back in the
bottom of the inning on Alex Stathearn’s RBI
double to the fence in left field, but Capuchino
came right back with two more runs in the
“Our pitcher, she’s a sophomore, and she’s
really been picking it up and today she pitched

working her way up.”
After almost scoring in the fifth, Half Moon
Bay finally figured out Ailand in the sixth.
Alyssa Giannini led off with a walk and
moved to second on a fielder’s choice.
After a fly out to right, Jessica Lehane came
through and singled to right. It appeared the
Panthers would have a play at the plate, but
right fielder Kristin Chaney stumbled as she
was about to fire home and Giannini scored.
Then after another single, Kelsey Moore

the Cougars a 3-1 lead.

doubles, with Gretter plating Wild. Later in
the inning, Molina drove in his second run of
the game.
All told, Capuchino got RBI from six dif-
ferent players and eight of the nine batters in
the lineup scored at least one run. Davis and
Faubel each drove in three runs, while Molina
added two.
The Bearcats added one more run in the
bottom of the sixth when Noriega, who led off

appeared Half Moon Bay was going to have
enough to beat the Panthers. But it wasn’t too
be. The Cougars made two key errors in the
frame that set-up the Saucedo at-bat.
“We came into this game flat,” said Half
Moon Bay coach Deanna Rocha. “Our games
this week, we’ve come into them flat for what-
ever reason. We’ll peak somewhere in the
middle of the game, we’ll scratch back, but
we’ll just go flat again. We are not 100 percent
focused. And that is what’s causing the errors.
We’re not thinking completely.”
“Honestly, you can’t really do anything.”
Saucedo said of her game-winning at-bat.
“You just have to play your game every time
you’re up to bat. I work everyday (and) it just
came to me, I guess.”
The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against
Defamation said McDowell’s apology was
only a start.
“The Atlanta Braves and Major League
Baseball must take real disciplinary action
and send the message that anti-gay slurs have
no place in sports,” said GLAAD president
Jarrett Barrios. “Professional sporting events
should be an environment that all fans and
families can enjoy, not a place where children
are exposed to violent threats and discrimina-
tory language.”

MUSEUM GOTTA SEE ‘UM
By Susan Cohn
DAILY JOURNAL SENIOR CORRESPONDENT
A MARVELOUS MENAGERIE.
Something amazing is on the floor of San
Francisco’s Legion of Honor. Seventeen
hundred years ago, near what is now Lod,
Israel, someone, probably a wealthy
Roman, installed a spectacular mosaic floor
in the reception room of a large villa. The
floor, now known as the Lod Mosaic, was
made with squares and triangles depicting
various birds, fish and animals surrounding
a larger octagonal scene decorated with
ferocious wild beasts — a lion and lioness,
an elephant, a giraffe, a rhinoceros, a tiger
and a wild bull — and one spectacular
panel devoted to a single marine scene,
complete with two Roman merchant ships
and phantasmagorical sea creatures. Hidden
for centuries, this extraordinary floor was
unearthed during road construction in 1996,
but was only recently lifted from its site and
preserved. For the next three months, this
splendid work of art, measuring approxi-
mately 300 square feet, occupies almost the
entire footprint of the Legion’s Gallery 1,
laid out so that visitors can walk on three
sides. Gallery 2 serves as an introduction to
the Lod Mosaic, displaying works from the
Legion’s permanent antiquities collections,
including a Roman marble sarcophagus,
glass vessels and two mosaic panels, along
with coins from the San Francisco Ancient
Numismatic Society that bear images of
animals and ships.
Exhibition curator Renée Dreyfus said,
“Other Roman mosaics have been found in
Israel, but this one is exceptional in its live-
ly imagery and its excellent state of preser-
vation. We are thrilled to be able to display
such an amazing work of art in our museum
and think about what a great city Lod must
have been in Roman times. Each excavated
work in the Holy Land reveals so much
about the history and people who lived in
this remarkable land.”
The Legion of Honor Museum is located
in Lincoln Park, 34th Avenue and Clement
Street, San Francisco. Programs scheduled
in conjunction with the visit of the Lod
Mosaic include talks and demonstrations by
mosaic artists and a June 25 presentation by
Metropolitan Museum of Art Curator of
Greek and Roman Art Christopher
Lightfoot. For information visit
www.legionofhonor.org or call (415) 750-
3600. Marvelous Menagerie: A Roman
Mosaic from Lod, Israel is on display
through July 24.

IF IT FLOATS LIKE A DUCK. SFO
Museum presents The Allure of the Decoy.
The decoy, a hunting device intended to
lure wild birds, has a long history in North
America. Native Americans first fashioned
them from reeds and other natural materials
more than 1,000 years ago. European-
Americans followed their lead and began
carving decoys from wood sometime in the
late 1700s. A simple tool, the decoy tran-
scends functionality and represents one of
the most extraordinary forms of American
folk art. The Allure of the Decoy features
more than 70 examples from master crafts-
men such as “Fresh Air Dick” Janson and
Ed Snyder. Although the work of California
carvers is emphasized, the exhibition
includes examples from the Ward Brothers
of Maryland, Shang Wheeler of
Connecticut, Robert and Catherine Elliston
of the Illinois River region and the Mason
Factory of Detroit. Among the ducks
species depicted are Green-winged teals,
Pintail, Red-breasted merganser,
Canvasback and Pacific black brant. The
Allure of the Decoy, located pre-security in
the International Terminal Main Hall, San
Francisco International Airport, is on view
through Nov. 6. Free.

news anchor represented a bold step,
certainly something new for CBS News.
Her likely successor, Scott Pelley, hear-
kens back to a day when CBS was the
gold standard in television news.
Pelley, the “60 Minutes” correspon-
dent who has worked at CBS for 21
years, is expected to be named next
week as anchor of the third-rated
evening newscast, to compete nightly
with Brian Williams of NBC and Diane
Sawyer of ABC. Many at CBS News see
no other candidate.
The expected new anchor is a courtly,
53-year-old Texan, born in San Antonio.
Pelley worked in local TV news in
Dallas and Lubbock, and worked at CBS
as a Texas-based national correspondent.
He was a CBS News White House cor-
respondent during the end of the Clinton
years, became a correspondent for the
WEEKEND JOURNAL
short-lived “60 Minutes II” spinoff and
joined “60 Minutes” in 2003.
At CBS he has won awards for report-
ing on the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, for
stories on American waste that winds up
in toxic dumps overseas instead of being
recycled, and this season he has reported
extensively on the human repercussions
of the recession.
“He’s relentless as a reporter and he is
relentless in his drive to do good jour-
nalism,” said Dan Rather, a fellow Texan
and former “CBS Evening News”
anchor. “He’s a rock-solid believer in the
tradition, history, legends and myths of
CBS News.”
The CBS News tradition that goes
back half a century to Edward R.
Murrow is looked on with pride by many
at the network and outside, a reflection
of an era where excellence in reporting
and seriousness of purpose ruled. The
new CBS News chairman, Jeff Fager, is
a CBS veteran seen as trying to bring
back those values. To many, though, it’s
a time gone by with CBS’ news division

a clear third in strength behind NBC and
ABC.
The evening anchor has long been
seen as the face of a news division.
Dwindling viewers, the importance of
morning shows as profit centers and the
ability of people to get news quickly on
the Internet or cable news networks has
reduced the influence of ABC’s “World
News,” NBC’s “Nightly News” and the
CBS newscast over the years. Still, the
three newscasts collectively averaged 22
million viewers last week, the Nielsen
Co. said.
Pelley is a meticulous journalist who
does the little things to make a broadcast
better, said Beth Knobel, a former
Moscow bureau chief for CBS News and
now a professor at Fordham University.
When Pelley recently filled in as news
anchor, he called correspondents ahead
of time to craft their own questions for
him to ask them on the air, which made
them noticeably more informative than
if he had read questions written by oth-
ers, she said.

Food magazines getting makeovers
By Michael Hill
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — It’s starting to feel like an
all-you-can-eat buffet on the newsstand lately.
And that has some food magazines mixing it
up a bit.
As many magazines continue to struggle,
food magazines show strength. For a third
year in a row, launches of new food maga-
zines topped all other categories, according to
Samir Husni, director of the Magazine
Innovation Center at the University of
Mississippi School of Journalism.
And some, such as Food Network
Magazine, which debuted in 2009, have
enjoyed tremendous success.
That’s putting pressure on established food
titles. Two of the larger-circulation magazines
— Every Day with Rachael Ray and Bon
Appetit — this month launched splashy over-
hauls with new editors at the helm, efforts to
attract advertisers and keep readers in the
increasingly crowded market.
“Those established magazines that come on
a regular basis are finding it harder and hard-
er to compete on the newsstand because of
how many food titles we have crowding that
marketplace,” Husni said. “They need a story
to take to the advertisers — they’re refreshed,
they’re redesigned — because they have a big
competitor called the Food Network
Magazine.”
The market for food magazines has become
more competitive since Food Network
Magazine’s launch, which came the same
year Bon Appetit owner Conde Nast closed
the grand dame of food magazines, Gourmet.
Last year, more than 100 out of about 800
new magazines were food titles, Husni said.
Plus, a majority of food titles boosted adver-
tising revenue in the first quarter of 2011 com-
WEEKEND JOURNAL
“The magazine that we remade
absolutely puts back energy into the pages.
...It has an energy to it on top of a youthfulness.”
pared to the same period a year earlier,
according to the Publishers Information
Bureau.
The timing of the dual revamps of Bon
Appetit and Every Day is coincidental — the
two titles have different owners and aim for
slightly different readers. But they operate in
the same environment and have taken similar
paths.
Both have new editors mixing things up, yet
sticking with their magazine’s core identity —
for Bon Appetit, that’s being a smart but not
snooty food authority; for Every Day, it’s
being a distillation of Ray’s bubbly spirit on
the page.
“The magazine that we remade absolutely
puts back energy into the pages,” Rachael Ray
said in a phone interview. “It has an energy to
it on top of a youthfulness.”
Ray’s magazine is making its biggest
change since its debut five years ago. There
are more photos and the text is often smaller
to help pack in more features. Editor-in-chief
Liz Vaccariello, who came over from
Prevention magazine in November, said she
wants to engage readers not only with food
pages, but to add more lifestyle content with
Ray’s unique outlook. (In another change,
Ray’s magazine also is looking for a new pub-
lisher.)
“We’ve seen a lot of success, but things
have changed in the marketplace,” Vaccariello
said, sitting in her Manhattan office. “It’s time
to re-think what the product could be and
— Rachael Ray
what Rachael’s fans wanted and expected
from her in a printed product.”
Bon Appetit has been around for 55 years,
but has no intention of becoming fusty — wit-
ness the recent campaign to promote the
makeover that revolved around the phrase
“Bite Me.”
Editor-in-chief Adam Rapoport, who
moved over from fellow Conde Nast maga-
zine GQ, said changes include an emphasis on
compelling photos and keeping up with cur-
rent food culture. The new issue has an essay
from of-the-moment chef Gabrielle Hamilton,
author of the current best-seller, “Blood,
Bones & Butter.”
“I wanted it to have some pop visually. I
also wanted it to have a sense of realism. If
you look at a lot of the photos there are
crumbs, there are cookies shot on parchment
paper, they’re on actual kitchen counters,”
Rapoport said. “This is a magazine for home
cooks and the food should like it was shot in
a kitchen and was made by an actual person
and not a just some food stylist in a faraway
photo studio.”
Bon Appetit and Every Day each have more
than 1.4 million subscribers, which make up
the majority of their total sales. But both
dropped in newsstand sales last year com-
pared to 2009, according to figures from the
Audit Bureau of Circulations. Though the two
magazines still outsell Food Network
Magazine, the popular channel’s publication
does better on newsstands. In first-quarter ad

revenue compared to last year, Bon Appetit
was up, Ray’s magazine was down.
Husni said that while neither Every Day nor
Bon Appetit is messing with its DNA with
their redesigns, the publicity that comes from
even smaller changes can help them in a field
glutted with food titles.
Even the top selling food magazines are
working to keep things fresh. Taste of Home,
which is the nation’s best selling food maga-
zine (and like Ray’s magazine is published by
Reader’s Digest Association) quietly under-
went a “refresh” earlier this year that ushered
in some font and photo changes, said editor-
in-chief Catherine Cassidy. She said the read-
er recipe-packed magazine adapts constantly.
“We have a lot of competition nipping at
our heels all the time,” Cassidy said.
That means competition from electronic
media as well as other magazines — yet
another consideration for the two new editors.
Pages of Every Day are sprinkled with “QR
codes” that can be read by smart phones.
Readers who snap a picture can get bonus
content, such as recipes. Vaccariello also has
been on Ray’s daytime talk show about a
dozen times since becoming editor and
they’re synchronizing the release of certain
features, like style makeovers for women.
“We understand the value of the show and
the show understands the value of the maga-
zine,” Vaccariello said.
At Bon Appetit, Rapoport said they are
relaunching their website, developing an app
and are getting involved in TV and e-books.
Rapoport sees the magazine as the foundation
of a larger brand with content that can be
enjoyed on a tablet or a phone — or wherever
the market will go in the years ahead.
“If I knew that I’d probably be working at
Apple right now,” Rapoport joked, “I’m just a
magazine editor.”

Obama assembles all-star
cast to talk immigration
By Jim Kuhnhenn
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — His immigration overhaul stalled,
President Barack Obama is enlisting an array of voices, includ-
ing Latino entertainment and media stars, to help jump-start
legislation and reassure crucial but restless Hispanic voters that
he has not abandoned his campaign pledge to change the law.
Obama’s political advisers see tremendous potential in a
growing Latino electorate. But Obama, who won 67 percent of
the Latino vote in 2008, faces a disenchanted Latino commu-
nity, angry over a record number of deportations and an
impasse on revamping immigration laws, and fearful of tough
state immigration laws such as one passed in Arizona.
On Thursday, the president invited a dozen influential
Spanish-language television anchors and radio personalities as
well as comely Latino actresses who have been active in
Hispanic causes. Among the high-profile Latinos was Eddie
“Piolin” Sotelo, who in 2006 helped mobilize hundreds of
thousands of protesters in Los Angeles and across the nation
against enforcement-only immigration proposals. Others at the
White House were actresses Eva Longoria and America
Ferrera and television figures Don Francisco of Univision and
Jose Diaz-Balart of Telemundo.

since the middle of last week. His donation
and loan total now surpasses $300,000.
Millbrae Councilwoman Gina Papan did not
loan herself any more in the last week but
accepted donations in the amount of $1,000
each from Alan Talansky of San Mateo, Menlo

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
RAMON C. ESCRITO, JR.
Case Number 121118
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: Ramon C. Escrito, Jr. A
Petition for Probate has been filed by:
Rhodora Escrito Sheleg in the Superior
Court of California, County of San Mateo.
The Petition of Probate requests that
Rhodora Escrito Sheleg be appointed as
personal representative to administer the
estate of the decedent.
The petition requests authority to admin-
ister the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This au-
thority will allow the personal representa-
tive to take many actions without obtain-
ing court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the per-
sonal representative will be required to
give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to
the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted
unless an interested person files an ob-
jection of the petition and shows good
cause why the court should not grant the
authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held in
this court as follows: May 27, 2011 at
9:00 a.m., Dept: 28, Superior Court of
California, County of San Mateo, 400
County Center Drive, Redwood City, CA
94063. If you object to the granting of
the petition, you should appear at the
hearing and state your objections or file
written objections with the court before
the hearing. Your appearance may be in
person or by your attorney. If you are a
creditor or a contingent creditor of the
decedent, you must file your claim with
the court and mail a copy to the personal
representative appointed by the court
within four months from the date of first
issuance of letters as provided in Pro-
bate Code section 9100. The time for fil-
ing claims will not expire before four
months from the hearing date noticed
above. You may examine the file kept by
the court. If you are a person interested
in the estate, you may file with the court
a Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and ap-
praisal of estate assets or of any petition
or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special No-
tice form is available from the court clerk.

safety to public works.
“Sometimes you have to start with small
steps,” Matthews said.
Sharing police services between the two
cities has been discussed for some time. Last
summer, the cities agreed to a study the pos-
sibility of merging services which could
result in a combined savings of $1.36 mil-
lion annually, according to the Citygate
report.
If the savings were split based on calls for
service, Burlingame would pay an additional
$543,000 while San Mateo would save $1.9
million. Splitting based on population results
in a $796,000 savings for Burlingame and a
$561,000 savings for San Mateo. Equally
weighing both those indicators creates a
$126,000 savings for Burlingame and $1.2

essary to put the initiative on the November
ballot.
Schofield said he believes male circumci-
sion is wrong, and likened it to female cir-
cumcision practices that are already banned
in the United States.
The proposal would punish people who cir-
cumcise a minor with a fine of up to $1,000 or
up to a year in jail. The elections department
has 30 days to decide whether to certify the
initiative and put it on the ballot.
Schofield said Thursday that he is happy
that his proposal is sparking a conversation
around the city and nationwide, with media
outlets across the country picking up the
story.
“It’s been a taboo subject ... and if you can’t
talk about something, there is something
wrong,” he said.
Religious groups such as the San Francisco
Interfaith Council and the Jewish Community

million for San Mateo, according to the
Citygate report.
These assumptions are based on closing the
Burlingame police station and does not
include expenses for finance, human resource,
legal and other administrative services,
according to the report. Each city would
remain responsible for its unfunded liability
for retirement and retiree health. Savings
assume Burlingame employee salaries would
be raised to match the higher San Mateo rates.
If compensation remains at current levels, an
additional $280,000 in savings could be real-
ized.
Burlingame staff is recommending putting
together a plan to share only dispatch and
records services. Under the 50/50 model, it
would result in savings for both cities, accord-
ing to a report written by Interim Police Chief
Ed Wood.
According to the Citygate report, sharing
dispatch would require adding radio channels,
working with common software and the possi-
bility of implementing San Mateos’ e-report-
Relations Council say they will push back
strongly against the proposal, which they say
impinges on their rights to religious freedom.
“We view it as an attack on religion in gen-
eral,” said Michael Pappas, executive director
of the interfaith council.
Abby Porth, associate director of the
Jewish Community Relations Council, said
the groups will take a multi-pronged
approach in opposition to the proposal,
including seeking legal recourse and organiz-
ing a broad coalition of community members.
“The proposed initiative raises very signifi-
cant constitutional legal issues,” Porth said.
Schofield said that the U.S. Constitution
already does not allow for all kinds of reli-
gious freedoms when it comes to the care of
a child.
“You can do anything with your own body
as long as it doesn’t affect anything else ... but
the religious experience stops at someone
else’s body,” he said.
Porth said she is confident that if the initia-
tive makes it on the ballot, the city’s voters
will reject it.
“They would view it as turning back the
clock on religious freedom,” she said. “It’s
ing system in Burlingame.
Burlingame Police Officers Association
President Jim Hutchings said the police are
open to any cost-saving joint measures as long
as it preserves the level of service. The dis-
patch plan could require Burlingame residents
to go to San Mateo for records, a detail
Hutchings said may not be an acceptable cut
to customer service.
Sharing some police services was suggested
last year when Burlingame considered naming
San Mateo Deputy Police Chief Mike Callagy
as its interim police chief. The move was con-
sidered a first step toward merging service.
Burlingame police, past and present,
expressed major concerns at the time about
hiring Callagy before a third party analyzed
benefits of sharing services. While the San
Mateo City Council approved the move,
Burlingame unanimously denied it. The study
was OK’d shortly after.
The Burlingame City Council meets 7 p.m.
at City Hall, 501 Primrose Road.
directly at odds with San Francisco’s tolerant
culture.”
Schofield said, though, that “we wouldn’t
be doing this if there wasn’t a great deal of
support from Jewish people” and the commu-
nity at large.
“I hope that people take a deep breath, step
back and look at the facts,” he said.

U.K.police:Three arrests
around royal wedding
By Cassandra Vinograd
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LONDON — Three people have been
arrested in a security clampdown related to
Prince William’s wedding to Kate Middleton,
police said Thursday.
The arrests come as Britain’s police force
gears up for a modern security nightmare in
Friday’s event at Westminster Abbey, with
5,000 officers on duty to look out for every-
thing from Irish dissident terrorists, Muslim
extremists, anti-monarchists, protesters and
ordinary riffraff who might blight the royal
spectacle.
Scotland Yard said officers detained three
individuals in south London Thursday
evening on suspicion of conspiracy to cause
public nuisance and breach of the peace. The
suspects — two men, aged 68 and 45, and a
60-year old woman — remain in custody at a
local police station, the Metropolitan Police
said.
The police declined to give further details,
saying it believed those arrested were plan-
ning to attend the royal wedding and that 19
other arrests not specifically related to the
event were made in London earlier in the
day.
