Man poses as city worker,tries to enter home Police reports

Similar incidents have occurred elsewhere,police caution public to ask for ID
By Bill Silverfarb
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A man wearing a yellow hard hat posing as a
Belmont city worker tried to gain access to a
home on Chula Vista Drive Tuesday afternoon,
according to police.
The incident follows a recent home invasion
in San Mateo in which men in yellow hard hats
posing as utility workers broke into an elderly
woman’s home and ransacked it while the vic-
tim was made to watch. A similar incident
occurred in Woodside in late April.
The suspect in Tuesday’s incident knocked on
the door of a residence on the 1700 block of
Chula Vista Drive at 2:45 p.m. and identified
himself as a city employee working on a neigh-
bor’s sewer line, according to police.
He told the female resident of the home that
he needed to gain access to her backyard to
check on something, according to police.
The woman initially allowed him access to
the yard but, after thinking about it, decided to
ask the fake city worker for a badge or identifi-
cation, according to police.
When confronted, the man told the woman he
was going to his vehicle to get his identification
but then quickly drove off in a dark red or bur-
gundy van, according to police.
The man was described as white, in his early
30s, with a medium build, standing about 5 feet
5 inches tall and weighing approximately 170
pounds, according to police.
He was wearing a yellow hard hat, dark blue
long-sleeve shirt and dark pants, according to
police.
Police suspect the fake city worker may have
been casing the neighborhood for a burglary or
other crime.
Public Works employees and utility workers
wear uniforms and carry identification and the
public should not be afraid to ask someone
claiming to be with the city for identification,
according to a statement by the Belmont Police
Department.
Tuesday’s incident is the first in recent histo-
ry in which someone posed as a fake city or util-
ity worker in Belmont, police Capt. Dan
DeSmidt said yesterday.
“Our investigators are working with San
Mateo for a link,” DeSmidt said.
On May 2 in San Mateo, a group of three
men, one wearing a yellow hard hat, forced
entry into an elderly woman’s home early in the
afternoon, ransacking it before making off with
some of the victim’s valuables.
The victim in that case was assaulted, suf-
fered a visible injury and was treated at the
scene.
The three men, posing as construction or util-
ity workers, came to the victim’s front door and
rang the bell at about 1:25 p.m.
The victim, in her 80s, did not answer the
door, however, and the three men entered the
home on the 400 block of Portola Drive in the
Beresford/Hillsdale neighborhood by forcing
entry through the back, according to police.
She was forced to sit down by the suspects as
they rifled through her belongings.
The suspects in that case are described as
three Hispanic males, possibly in their 20s with
one wearing a yellow hard hat and possibly a
red shirt, according to police.
A man posing as a Caltrans worker distracted
a Woodside homeowner April 28 while another
suspect snuck in an unlocked back door and
stole items, according to the San Mateo County
Sheriff’s Office.
The Woodside incident began when a man
dressed in a transportation worker outfit, with
the blue shirt and yellow hard hat, knocked on a
front door at a residence on Tripp Road. The
suspect said he was there to check landslide
possibilities because of recent strong storms.
When the victim was distracted, a second sus-
pect entered the back door and made off with
some jewelry, according to the Sheriff’s Office.

case should call (650) 595-7400.

DA to retry driver for fatal crash Accused teen

By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The driver convicted of gross vehicular
manslaughter in the drunken crash that killed his
best friend two years ago will be retried later this
summer for second-degree murder.
Prosecutors decided to pursue the more seri-
ous charge after Bruce Alan Walker Jr., 38,
declined to settle his case for a little more than
12 years in prison, said defense attorney Geoff
Carr.
Walker, who already faces a decade in prison
for the manslaughter conviction, could now
receive 15 years to life if found guilty of second-
degree murder when retried Aug. 29.
A jury deadlocked 9 to 3 on the murder charge
last month but found Walker guilty of the lesser
count in the April 11, 2009 death of his friend,
Daniel James White. White, 36, died after
Walker wrapped his car around a tree in
Burlingame.
The night of the crash, Walker’s silver Infiniti
M45 allegedly sped south on El Camino Real
crossing Howard Avenue and slid sideways into
a eucalyptus tree on the pas-
senger side. Walker was
seriously injured and pas-
senger White was pro-
nounced dead at the scene.
During trial, Walker’s
blood alcohol content was
said to be .20.
Prosecutors’ pursuit of a
murder conviction in a
Bruce Walker vehicle-related death is rare
but based in part, according
to them, on Walker’s history which includes two
prior convictions of driving while intoxicated in
San Mateo County. Walker was also awaiting
prosecution for wrecking a rental car while
intoxicated during a Wisconsin business trip.
“We simply felt because of his prior record we
think he’s a danger to the community and we
want to try holding him accountable,” said
District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe.
Wagstaffe said the retrial is a greater gamble
for Walker than his office.
“We already know he has the 10 years,”
Wagstaffe said.
Carr said his client is ready to do his time for
the manslaughter conviction.
“He killed his friend and he doesn’t feel
blameless,” Carr said.

However, he called a retrial a gamble for the
prosecution, too, because the jury first split 7 to
5 in favor of acquittal before ultimately hanging

Meeting to focus on school overcrowding

By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Overcrowding issues in the Belmont-
Redwood Shores Elementary School District
could be addressed using numerous options —
such as redistricting, priority enrollment, build-
ing more space or an immersion program —
which the board will discuss tonight.
With voter-approved bond money and enroll-
ment continuing to grow, the district has been
considering a change to its neighborhood
school boundaries before making construction
decisions. Tonight, the board will consider
numerous options for handling the issues
including shifting students at Fox, Cipriani,
Central and Nesbit elementary schools. A com-
mittee charged with researching alternatives
will also present short- and long-term possibil-
ities. Each option will be discussed before any
decisions are made tonight.
“The board will now have the opportunity to
review recommendations from the committees
on how to solve space needs for our enrollment
growth and discuss how bond funds can be used
to serve district students in the coming years,”
Superintendent Emerita Orta-Camilleri wrote
in a staff report.
A boundary committee, established in
March, came up with a recommendation in late
April that would shift the school assignments of
many neighborhoods west. For example, stu-
dents currently assigned to Cipriani would go to
Central and those at Central would move to
Nesbit.
It’s the last move that has brought up the
most concerns and, at times, negative com-
ments. Those comments are weighing on the
Nesbit community which simply wants a solu-
tion that helps all the district’s children. The
proposal does allow for students, including
kids enrolled for kindergarten in the fall, to
stay put. Siblings of those children will also be
allowed to enroll in that school.
Alesha Breite, chair of the Alternatives
Committee, will also make a presentation.
The committee — which includes principals
and two representatives from each school —
was created to explore those options while
boundary changes are being discussed. All
options were put on the table and researched
from lottery to no changes and even buying
property, said Breite.
“It’s amazing to see the community come
together,” Breite said of the group.
Two short-term recommendations and one
long-term recommendation will be put forward
by the group.
To start with, the group is suggesting expan-
sion on the Fox and Nesbit campuses, both of
which have space for additional buildings.
Second, priority enrollment consisting of a lot-
tery and sister school partnership will be pro-
posed. Under this scenario, families would
know where the children would attend if they
didn’t get in at their neighborhood school.
While this is generally practiced now, there are
no formal rules about it, Breite noted.
Looking long-term, the group is suggesting
an immersion program and after-school
options. While many have called on the district
to start a magnet program at Nesbit to naturally
draw children, parents want those specialized
programs to be available districtwide. Also, any
kind of program would take time and further
research to implement — both of which the
committee is recommending, Breite said.
An update on facilities will also be included
in Thursday night’s presentation.
Breite was hopeful that parents would come
to share which solution they feel the strongest
about.

Around the state

Brown seeks to chip away at ‘wall of debt’
SACRAMENTO — In 1991, the Legislature delayed a $168
million payment it owed to the state’s largest pension fund by
one day, into the next budget year — a sim-
ple shuffle to help balance the annual
spending plan.
It never repaid the money, leaving the
state one payment behind on what it owed
to the California Public Employees’
Retirement System for more than two
decades and through three gubernatorial
administrations, including that of former
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.
As the state kicked that debt forward Jerry Brown
through the years, the amount grew to more
than $500 million. Each time the state uses such a cash shuffle to
cover its deficit, it digs a deeper hole of debt for future budgets.
Gov. Jerry Brown says it’s time to pay up. He wants to start
reducing the state’s debt and tens of billions more in account-
ing gimmicks, temporary loans and delayed payments. In all,
the so-called “budgetary borrowing” equates to a $34.7 billion
drag on the state.

UC tuition could soar under worst budget scenario

SAN FRANCISCO — Student tuition at the University of
California could rise more than 30 percent next year if Gov.
Jerry Brown’s budget plan doesn’t pan out, school administra-
tors said Wednesday.
The governor earlier this year signed legislation reducing
state support for UC by $500 million to roughly $2.5 billion for
the coming fiscal year. Three years ago, the 10-campus system
received more than $3 billion from the state, UC officials said.
Brown wants to close the state’s remaining $9.6 billion budg-
et deficit by extending temporary increases in sales, vehicle and
personal income taxes, but so far doesn’t have enough
Republican support to approve his budget plan.

Shuttle delivers pricey cargo
By Marcia Dunn
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — A mammoth
cosmic ray detector arrived at the International
Space Station on Wednesday, a $2 billion
experiment that will search the invisible uni-
verse and help explain how everything came to
be.
It’s the most expensive cargo ever carried by
a space shuttle and almost didn’t make it to
orbit before the fleet retires this summer.
Endeavour, making the second-to-last flight,
docked at the space station after doing a slow
backflip so cameras could capture any signs of
launch damage. NASA said it was taking a
closer look at some gouges and nicks on the
shuttle’s belly but there was no cause for con-
cern.
Two astronaut teams were assigned to attach
the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer to the out-
side of the space station on Thursday, using a
pair of robot arms, where it will stay for the
life of the outpost.
The scientists on Endeavour’s crew said it
will justify the scientific purpose of space sta-
tion.
Student loans, gov’t pensions eyed by budgeteers
By David Espo
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The White House and
key lawmakers are considering reductions in
student loan subsidies, farm payments and sup-
port for federal workers’ pensions as they
search for cuts that can clear the way for an
increase in the national debt limit, according to
officials in both parties.
The negotiations are still in the early stages,
with no final decisions made, these officials
“It’s in the same scale of importance as
Hubble (Space Telescope),” astronaut Gregory
Chamitoff said before the flight. “And it is
going to be by far the biggest, most expensive
and perhaps the most fundamentally valuable
science apparatus we have on the space sta-
tion.”
Physicist Phil Schewe said the experiment is
part of a centuries-long tradition of scientists
exploring the building blocks of matter, from
elements to atoms to subatomic particles.
“This is just a grand extension of trying to
answer the question, why we have matter and
what it is,” said Schewe, a spokesman for the
American Institute of Physics.
“Is this a big deal? Especially if they find
something, yes it is.”
The 7-ton instrument, known by its acronym
AMS, has been 17 years in the making, and
involves 600 scientists from 16 countries. The
heart of the experiment is a magnet ring 3 feet
across.
The made-in-China magnet will bend the
path of charged cosmic particles as they pass
through eight detectors, enabling scientists to
identify their properties.

said Wednesday. While the amounts involved
so far are relatively modest, the talks led by
Vice President Joe Biden appear likely to
assume greater public prominence with the evi-
dent collapse of a freelance attempt by the
“Gang of Six” senators to produce a sweeping
bipartisan plan to reduce red ink.
“We’re talking (about cuts totaling) $200 bil-
lion, $150 billion and we have to get up into the
trillion range or more,” said Sen. Jon Kyl, R-
Ariz., one of six other lawmakers taking part in
the talks at Blair House across the street from
the White House.

leader, said the greatest discovery may well be
what he and others aren’t anticipating. On
Wednesday, he said he was excited but not
nervous.
“It’s a bit too late to think about that now,”
Ting said from NASA’s Johnson Space Center
in Houston.
Endeavour — making its final journey and
the next-to-last flight of NASA’s shuttle era —
arrived at the space station Wednesday.
Commander Mark Kelly, the husband of
wounded Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, expertly
steered the shuttle in for the 220-mile-high
linkup, after doing the backflip for cameras.
The space agency has checked for damage to
the shuttle’s delicate heat shield ever since the
2003 Columbia disaster. The shuttle is also
now equipped with tile repair kits. A slab of
fuel tank foam knocked a hole in Columbia’s
wing which led to its destruction during re-
entry.
At an afternoon news conference, NASA
deputy shuttle program manager LeRoy Cain
said they will continue to assess the damage to
the protective thermal tiles. If needed, the
astronauts will use a boom to make a closer
inspection this weekend.
focused on areas of agreement.
The group has yet to discuss military spending
or deeper reductions in programs that already
were trimmed in legislation that narrowly avert-
ed a partial government shutdown in April. Any
discussion about savings from Social Security,
Medicare and possibly Medicaid is likely to be
set aside for President Barack Obama and
Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, to handle.
Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner has said
Congress must raise the $14.3 trillion debt limit
by Aug. 2 or risk a first-ever government
default. Republican leaders, acknowledging the
need for new borrowing authority, want cuts of
at least the same magnitude as any increases as
a way to gain control over future spending.

End of the world?
Many skeptics are thinking of partying instead
By Tom Breen
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
For some, it’s Judgment Day. For others, it’s
party time.
A loosely organized Christian movement
has spread the word around the globe that
Jesus Christ will return to earth on Saturday to
gather the faithful into heaven. While the
Christian mainstream isn’t buying it, many
other skeptics are milking it.
A Facebook page titled “Post rapture loot-
ing” offers this invitation: “When everyone is
gone and god’s not looking, we need to pick up
some sweet stereo equipment and maybe some
new furniture for the mansion we’re going to
squat in.” By Wednesday afternoon, more than
175,000 people indicated they would be
“attending” the “public event.”
The prediction is also being mocked in the
comic strip “Doonesbury” and has inspired
“Rapture parties” to celebrate what hosts
expect will be the failure of the world to come
to an end.
In the Army town of Fayetteville, N.C., the
local chapter of the American Humanist
Association has turned the event into a two-
day extravaganza, with a Saturday night party
followed by a day-after concert.

Aggressive Cremation Group:

Seniors Targeted - Beware
By Paul Larson
MILLBRAE – They
are at it again!
Recently I was
made aware of a
new cluster of mass
mailings being sent
to Seniors by a
group calling
themselves “Smart Cremation” (similar to
the mailings sent earlier this year by the
“Trident Society”). Several Seniors have
come to me asking who is “Smart
Cremation”, where did they come from and
my opinion on their legitimacy.
When ever I hear about mailings from
“quickie” cremation outfits that target
Seniors I am always suspicious about their
intensions. It is a fact that various
unscrupulous entities target Seniors because
they are thought of as “Easy Prey”.
I did some investigating and found out
the following: According to the website
“Ripoff Report” the group calling
themselves “Smart Cremation” is run by
“Jerry Norman” who was allegedly fired as
CEO of the Neptune Society. “Smart
Cremation” is linked to “Accucare” and
“Gateway Crematory” who are all one in the
same. “Smart Cremation” and the other
above names exist under the umbrella of
“Northstar Memorial Group” in Houston,
Texas. There is apparently some concern on
how “Smart Cremation” collects and holds
money from the Seniors they are targeting.
Yes, I know…there are a lot of names &
details to sink in…but there’s more…
Using visual tricks “Smart Cremation”
has been printing materials which are
specific to certain targeted Seniors such as
using flower envelopes mailed to women
and U.S. flag envelopes mailed to Veterans,
etc., all meant to be subliminally enticing.
Also, “Smart Cremation” advertizes
themselves as being “green” and “earth
friendly” when in reality the process they
use to cremate is no different than any other
crematory in the United States. It is well
documented that toxic greenhouse gases are
emitted into the atmosphere during the
cremation process. An example of a true
green option would be a natural type burial
certified by the “Green Burial Council”.
There are too many particulars about
“Smart Cremation” to list here, but on the ATTENTION
internet you can read the entire report for
yourself along with comments on legal
troubles from concerned consumers at:

Arnold’s back,
now go away
E
verybody loves a good scandal. When
that scandal involves a love child,
even better.
Of course, it sounds
like love had little to do
with latest political eye-
brow-raiser. Lust and
opportunity, more likely.
And ego — nothing fuels
wanton adultery and
betrayal like a heavy
does of self-importance
and braggadocio. Thank
you, Arnie, for following
in the shoes of Bill Clinton, Eliot Spitzer,
Mark Sanford, John Ensign and dozens of
others who just couldn’t keep it in their pants.
Actually, those folks seem to be following
in the shoes of Arnie since, according to rep-
utable sources like TMZ, his dalliance of the
moment happened more than a decade ago.
Of course, the rumor mill has churned out sto-
ries of Arnie’s groping and conquests long
before word broke this week of his illegiti-
mate child with a former worker at his home.
But somehow those ones don’t seem to count
in the court of public opinion. Rumors of
flings? Easy to brush aside. Hard genetic
proof that he terminated the idea of fidelity?
Shocking. So shocking in fact that the world
can barely focus on any other newsworthy
even short of Oprah Winfrey’s mass celebrity-
laden final show tapings. Granted, former
California first lady Maria Shriver made an
appearance on Queen Oprah’s show so per-
haps there is a link after all.
But what of the other world news battling
for headlines right now? The Endeavor’s
space endeavors? The sexual assault charges
against IMF Managing Director Dominique
Strauss-Kahn? The state budget? The linger-
ing aftermath of Osama bin Laden’s death?
The possible demise of a tree named
“Granny” in Menlo Park? The end of the
world in mere days, for god’s sake?
In other words, there are things to do and
things to mull and most of them, it’s fair to
say, are a whole lot more important than how
the former governor and action star decided to
give one of his staff another personal chore on
top of the housekeeping and laundry. If any-
thing, the only shocking story coming out of
this should be just how many people appear to
be shocked by the story.
Perhaps I’m cynical. Perhaps I don’t care
enough. Perhaps I am a tad angry at having to
spell check Schwarzenegger once again after
celebrating the end of his reign by removing
the cheat-sheet Post-It stuck near my comput-
er screen.
That said, everybody loves a tawdry person-
al scandal. They are so much more easy to
understand than the federal budget and credit
crisis. So much more interesting than happi-
ness and glowing photo opps. So much more
a money maker and potential E! True
Hollywood Story than well-behaved people
doing well-behaved things.
Yet again, are we shocked? Think about the
signs. Maria hasn’t eaten since their wedding
day and hasn’t been seen alongside her
Austrian groom in quite a while. Arnold
seems to think cops are things he does to
women rather than the legions of law enforce-
ment troops whose support he once courted.
Let’s move on to something that matters or
at least a scandal that is actually scandalous.
This news has got to be heartbreaking to the
Schwarzenegger clan but isn’t going to knock
him off his pedestal or push him from office.
It also doesn’t mean anything to the fate of
California anymore.
Arnie had his time at the helm but he’s
done and it looks like Maria is done with him,
too.
Scandal or not, it’s time for us to be done
with him, too.

Stock indexes end higher

Dow 12,560.18 +0.65% 10-Yr Bond 3.1710% +0.05

NEW YORK — Widespread gains in
commodity prices lifted energy and
materials companies as part of a broad
stock market rally Wednesday after three
days of declines. Stocks built on morn-
ing gains after the Federal Reserve
released minutes that showed that offi-
cials agreed that the economy is improv-
ing, which could lead to higher demand
for raw materials like steel and fertilizer.
The Fed’s bond-buying program has
kept interest rates low and sent com-
modities and stock prices higher overall
since late August. The U.S. stock market
has gained nearly 25 percent since the
central bank signaled that it would begin
the asset-purchase plan. Commodity
prices had fallen over the last two weeks
after months of gains on concerns about
the impact of high energy prices on the
economy.
Oil gained nearly 4 percent to move
back above $100 a barrel, due in part to
a Dept. of Energy report that inventories
of crude oil did not rise last week as
expected. Energy stocks like Chevron
Corp. and Exxon Mobil Corp. rose near-
ly 2 percent.
The Dow Jones industrial average
Wall Street
added 80.60 points, or 0.6 percent, to
close at 12,560.18. The S&P index rose
11.70, or 0.9 percent, to 1,340.68. The
Nasdaq composite gained 31.79, or 1.1
percent, to 2,815.
Commodity prices halted their slide
after floods damaged wheat, corn and
soybean fields, with traders anticipating
a supply shortage would lead to higher
prices. Materials companies in the S&P
500 rose 2.1 percent, led by a nearly 5
percent gain in CF Industries Holdings.
The company sells fertilizer.
Stock indexes inched up slowly in
morning trading as investors tried to
make sense of mixed earnings reports.
Reports from Dell Inc. and Staples Inc.
sent contrasting messages about how
much corporations are spending. Dell’s
strong results suggested that companies
were spending more on technology, but
Staples’ report suggested businesses
were reluctant to lay out cash for basic
needs like office supplies.
“Businesses are spending in the tech-
nology sector to improve productivity,”
said Kim Caughey, equity research ana-
lyst at Fort Pitt Capital Group. “But in
the business-supply area, they might not
buy quite as many paper clips.”

LinkedIn’s IPO priced at $45 a share

By Michael Liedtke
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — Investors keen
to get in on the online networking craze
snapped up LinkedIn Corp. shares at $45
each, the top of the company’s expected
IPO range, giving the company a market
value of over $4 billion. That’s the high-
est market value for a U.S. Internet com-
pany taking its first bow on Wall Street
since Google Inc. went public nearly
seven years ago.
LinkedIn Corp.’s shares will make their
market debut Thursday on the New York
Stock Exchange. Mutual funds, pension
funds and other major money managers
got the first chance to buy most of the
IPO’s 7.84 million shares, since shares in
most IPOs typically are sold to invest-
ment bankers’ top customers. That means
Main Street investors will get their first
chance at LinkedIn on Thursday. Most
analysts believe that demand will send
shares higher in their first day of trading
even though the stock priced 30 percent
to 40 percent higher than LinkedIn’s ini-
tial target of $32 to $35 per share.
The lofty $4.3 billion appraisal reflects
investors’ belief that Internet services
which connect people with common
interests will be able to make more
money as the Web’s audience steadily
expands. LinkedIn’s valuation eventually
may look modest compared to more other
Internet companies that are being touted
as potentially going public in the next 18
months. The short list includes: online
messaging service Twitter, Web game
maker Zynga, coupon site Groupon and
Facebook, the social network that boasts
more than 500 million users.
LinkedIn, based down the street from
Google’s Mountain View headquarters,
runs a website that serves as part-
Rolodex, part-hiring center for workers
trying to meet people who might further
their careers and businesses searching for
talented employees. More than 102 mil-
lion people have set up LinkedIn profiles
so far.

Retail reports: Rich

spend,others scrimp
By Anne D’innocenzio
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK — High gas prices are driving a wider wedge

between the wealthy and everybody else.
The rich are back to pre-recession splurging: Saks Fifth
Avenue and Nordstrom customers are treating themselves to lux-
ury items like $5,000 Hermes handbags and $700 Jimmy Choo
shoes, and they’re paying full price.
At Target and Walmart, shoppers are concentrating on gro-
ceries and skipping even little luxuries. BJ’s Wholesale Corp.
said Wednesday that its customers are buying more hamburger
and chicken and less steak and buying smaller packs to save
money. “The average shopper isn’t in the game, except for neces-
sities,” said Faith Hope Consolo, chairman of retail leasing and
marketing at Prudential Douglas Elliman. At the same time,
among the rich, “Luxury products are selling like bread.”
J.C. Penney, Wal-Mart and home-improvement retailer Lowe’s
Cos. all said they’re noticing their customers are consolidating
shopping trips to save money on gas as the average price hovers
near $4 a gallon.

Business brief
Kodak up after recommendation in patent battle
ROCHESTER, N.Y. — Stock in Eastman Kodak Co. rose
sharply Wednesday after staff investigators at the U.S.
International Trade Commission sided with the photography
pioneer in its patent-infringement battle with smartphone
giants Apple Inc. and Research in Motion Ltd.
The third-party investigators at the federal agency, which
oversees trade disputes, found that Apple and Canada-based
RIM infringed an image-preview patent Kodak obtained in
2001. They recommended an order barring imports of Apple’s
iPhones and Research In Motion Ltd.’s BlackBerry phones.

Another 3rd-period letdown

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
VANCOUVER, British Columbia
— Daniel Sedin scored his second
power-play goal of the game, and
Chris Higgins and Mason Raymond
added man-advantage goals in the
third period for the Vancouver
Canucks, who routed the San Jose
Sharks 7-3 on Wednesday night and
took a 2-0 lead in the Western
Conference finals.
Defenseman Aaron Rome also
scored his first NHL playoff goal
with 5:30 left as the Canucks poured
it on late. The game turned when
Kevin Bieksa scored the go-ahead
goal on a breakaway with 7:55 left
in the second period.
Game 3 of the best-of-seven
series is Friday night at San Jose.
Bieksa, who scored the tying goal
in the Canucks’ 3-2 comeback win
in Game 1, beat four Sharks up the
ice to take a cross-ice, blue line-to-
blue line pass from Chris Higgins.
He then beat goalie Antti Niemi
with a quick shot between the legs.
The game got ugly after Bieksa
pounded Sharks forward Patrick
Marleau in a one-sided fight six
minutes later. That angered San Jose
Canucks 7, Sharks 3
tough guy Ben Eager, who was
yelling at the Canucks bench after
the fight. He then ran Daniel Sedin
face first into the boards late in the
period. Eager took another penalty
in the third, and Higgins made it 4-
2 on the power play eight minutes
in.
Raymond added another power-
play goal — on a too many men
penalty that negated Joe Thornton’s
breakaway — with 3:18 left. The
Canucks went 4 for 6 on the power
play. Daniel Sedin and Raffi Torres
scored 39 seconds apart in the first
period, and Roberto Luongo fin-
ished with 28 saves.
Eager also scored with 2:33 left,
but took a penalty then when he
pushed Luongo into the net after the
puck. Logan Couture and Patrick
Marleau scored power-play goals in
the first period, and Niemi made 31
saves.
After San Jose coach Todd
McLellan singled out that line after
Game 1, Dany Heatley sent Couture
in with a nice chip pass at the blue
line, and Couture lifted his team-
leading seventh goal past the out-
stretched blocker of Luongo 2:28 in.
Sedin tied it on a power play
back-and-forth with brother Henrik
midway through the period. Torres
put Vancouver ahead 39 seconds
later by getting position on Joe
Pavelski atop the crease to tap in
Christian Ehrhoff’s goal-line pass.
San Jose tied it again with its third
power-play goal of the series — on
just three chances — three minutes
later. Dan Boyle’s shot went wide
but came off the end boards to
Thornton on the other side for a
quick shot. Luongo stopped it, but
as he dived to cover the puck
Marleau knocked it under him. A
short video review confirmed it
went it, giving Marleau his third
goal in three games.
San Jose never got another power
play, however. The Sharks are 3 for
3 in the series against the Canucks,
who had killed 28 of 29 chances in
the second round against Nashville.
Daniel Sedin leads the NHL with
five power-play goals in the play-
offs, and it tied with Tampa Bay’s
Sean Bergenheim for the overall REUTERS
lead with eight goals. Henrik Sedin Vancouver defenseman Aaron Rome celebrates his third period goal

Horner king of the mountain Wednesday

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN JOSE — With a quick
uphill burst, Chris Horner of Bend,
Ore., rode away from teammate
Levi Leipheimer in the final two
miles and pedaled into the race lead
at the Tour of California on
Wednesday.
Horner (RadioShack), who last
year finished 10th in the Tour de
France as the top American, com-
pleted the 81.8-mile Livermore to
San Jose road race in 3 hours, 27
minutes and 51 seconds.
Andy Schleck (Leopard-Trek) of
Luxembourg, the 2009 and 2010
Tour de France runner-up, finished
second, 1 minute and 15 seconds
behind.
Rory Sutherland (United
Healthcare) of Australia was third,
just behind Schleck.
Horner, who finished fourth over-
all last year in the Tour of
California, leads the seven-day race
by 1:15 over Leipheimer of Santa
Rosa, the three-time race winner.
Tom Danielson (Garmin-Cervelo)
of Boulder, Colo., is third overall,
trailing by 1:22.
Leipheimer, who has won five
stages of the event, all time trials,
finished fourth in the stage, also
trailing by 1:15.
“I was riding in support of Levi
(Leipheimer); I always gave him
room,” said Horner, who began his
pro career in 1995 and is the sec-
ond-oldest rider in the race.
“He’s the three-time winner of the
race and is still a big favorite in the
time trial. I think we can go 1-2
overall.”
With teammates providing sup-
port through the stage, which
included four categorized climbs,
Horner waited until the base of the
final 3.5-mile climb to the finish to
launch his move.
Leipheimer followed, but it was
soon apparent Horner was the
strongest rider.
“I wanted to break the race apart,”
Horner said following the first
mountaintop finish in the six-year
race’s history.
Schleck, who has finished second
to Alberto Contador of Spain in the
Tour de France, was expected con-
test for the stage win.
“I was surprised,” said Schleck,
sixth overall, trailing Horner by
1:30. “I didn’t expect myself to be
up there.”
The stage’s severity took its toll.
Four riders didn’t finish and nearly
half of the field finished more than
24 minutes behind the winner.
Will Dugan of the United States
and Michael Matthews of Australia
did not start the stage after crashing
in stage three. One hundred thirty-
eight of the starting field of 144
remain.
The seven-day race continues
Thursday with a 135.1-mile Seaside
to Paso Robles road race, the
longest stage.

Bochy baffled by
lack of progress in
Bryan Stow case
By Greg Beacham
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — Nearly seven weeks
after a Giants fan was severely beaten at
Dodger Stadium on opening day, San
Francisco manager Bruce Bochy can’t believe
the culprits haven’t been caught.
Before the Giants opened a two-game series
against Los Angeles on Wednesday in the
defending champions’ first visit to the venera-
ble stadium since the beating, Bochy shared
the bewilderment felt by
both teams, most fans and
even the police since the
brutal postgame attack on
Bryan Stow in a parking
lot.
“I am surprised, because
there were a number of
witnesses,” Bochy said. “In
this time, with the video
Bryan Stow equipment and the avail-
ability of telephones and
cameras and the information that you’d think
we can get, I am very surprised that they
haven’t caught them.”
Stow, a 42-year-old paramedic and father of
two, transferred Monday to a San Francisco
hospital. He has opened his eyes after coming
out of a coma, but still faces a lengthy, uncer-
tain recovery.
Before their clubs’ brief series began in a
half-empty stadium, Bochy and Dodgers man-
ager Don Mattingly said the beating has cast
an undeniable pall over the West Coast’s liveli-
est baseball rivalry.
“It affected us, to have one of our fans have
this happen to him,” Bochy said. “He’s a father
with a family, and he comes out to watch a
ballgame. It’s tough to see that happen at a
ballpark. This is a game. I’m not going to lie.
It bothered everybody, and not just us.”
Los Angeles police have devoted extensive
personnel and time to finding the two men in
Dodgers gear who jumped Stow on March 31,
with more than a dozen detectives working the
case. They’ve pursued hundreds of leads on the
attackers and the woman who apparently
helped them escape the stadium, offering more
than $200,000 in rewards for information.

Twins top Oakland in 10 innings
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OAKLAND — First baseman Daric
Barton’s first error in 25 games put Oakland in
a bind in the 10th inning. His decision to cut
off Conor Jackson’s throw home two batters
later hurt the Athletics even more.
Trevor Plouffe hit a sacrifice fly for his sea-
son-high third RBI, and Delmon Young scored
easily when Jackson’s throw was stopped by
Barton near first base, helping the Minnesota
Twins beat the A’s 4-3 on Wednesday night.
Young singled to open the inning and
advanced to third when Barton threw Alexi
Casilla’s bunt into the outfield. After Denard
Span grounded out, Plouffe hit a fly ball to
right field off Brian Fuentes (1-4).
“I probably shouldn’t have cut that ball,”
Barton said. “It was one of those things where
I thought that if I cut it I might have (Casilla)
at third and try to stop the inning. I couldn’t
get a grip on it.”
Barton just missed a chance to redeem him-
self in the bottom of the inning, but his fly to
deep right field was caught on the warning
track by Minnesota’s Michael Cuddyer.

LOS ANGELES — Cody Ross hit a
tiebreaking three-run homer in the ninth
inning, and the San Francisco Giants rebound-

eighth for an 8-5 victory over Los Angeles on
Wednesday night.
Juan Uribe hit a two-run double and scored
the tying run on James Loney’s single during
the Dodgers’ dramatic two-out rally in the
eighth against Giants closer Brian Wilson (4-

Ross then pulled a pitch by Lance Cormier
(0-1) inside the left-field pole for just his third
homer of the season for the first-place Giants.

It was a play compound-

Daric Barton Oakland manager Bob
Geren said. “I honestly
don’t think he would have got him, but I would
have liked to seen it go through. There’s really
no value in cutting that.”
Joe Nathan (1-1) got two outs for the win,
pitching out of trouble in the ninth. Matt
Capps got three outs for his seventh save.
Justin Morneau also drove in a run for the
Twins, who have won two straight following a
nine-game losing streak.
Kevin Kouzmanoff drove in two runs and
Hideki Matsui added an RBI single for the A’s,
who fell a game behind Texas at the top of the

every AL stadium.
A’s starter Brandon McCarthy also lasted
seven innings, giving up three runs and nine
hits. He struck out one and did not walk a bat-
ter.
McCarthy is winless in his last seven starts.
Morneau singled home a run in the first to
give the Twins the early edge. Morneau, who
has been struggling all season, went 2 for 4
and is hitting .485 (16 for 33) with 13 RBIs his
last 10 games against the A’s.
Kouzmanoff singled home two runs in the
second to put the A’s on top 2-1.
Plouffe, whose throwing error led to the A’s
first two runs, came back to drive in two runs
in the third for a 3-2 Twins lead.
“This is his chance to go out and play,”
Minnesota manager Ron Gardenhire said. “He
has to go out and take advantage of it.”
Matsui’s RBI single in the sixth tied it.

Cain outdueled Clayton Kershaw while
extending his scoreless streak against Los
Angeles to 20 innings, retiring the first 12

Kershaw gave up seven hits and four runs in

26 1-3 consecutive scoreless innings against

Syrian activists call
general strike in new tactic
BEIRUT — Syrian protesters called Tuesday
for a one-day nationwide general strike, urging
students to skip school and workers to bring
commerce to a halt in a new strategy of defiance
against government crackdowns that appear to
be turning more brutal and bloody.
The strike, planned for Wednesday, marks a
shift by opposition forces to strike at President
Bashar Assad’s regime from new angles: its
economic underpinnings and ability to keep the
country running during two months of widening
battles. A sweeping popular acceptance of the
strike call would be an embarrassing blow to
Assad and show support for the uprising in
places, such as central Damascus, where signif-
icant protests have yet to take hold and security
forces have choked off the few that have taken
place. “It will be a day of punishment for the
regime from the free revolutionaries ... Massive
protests, no schools, no universities, no stores or
restaurants and even no taxis. Nothing,” said a
statement posted on the main Facebook page of
the Syrian Revolution 2011.
Pakistan Taliban vow to fight on
SHAKTOI, Pakistan — The Pakistani
Taliban vowed to fight with “new zeal” in the
wake of Osama bin Laden’s death to complete
the al-Qaida chief’s mission of waging holy war
against the West, the deputy commander of the
militant group told the Associated Press.
The comments by Waliur Rehman appeared
designed to deflate expectations that the May 2
raid by U.S. Navy SEALs that killed bin Laden
would slow down insurgent groups allied with
or inspired by al-Qaida. It also could be an
attempt to raise morale among the insurgents.
The primary target of the Pakistani Taliban
has been Pakistan itself, which the militants
claim is essentially a slave to the United States.
But the group also has been linked to plots
against the West, including a Pakistani
American’s failed attempt to detonate a car
bomb in New York’s Times Square last year and
a suicide bombing that killed seven CIA agents
at an Afghan base in 2009.
Afghan rally over NATO
raid turns violent;12 die
KABUL, Afghanistan — Anger over a night-
time NATO raid flared into violence in northern
Afghanistan on Wednesday as an estimated
1,500 people clashed with police and tried to
storm a German military base in a protest that
left 12 dead. The riot suggests more trouble
ahead for NATO as upcoming troop drawdowns
are likely to make the alliance increasingly
reliant on quick-strike raids on insurgent hide-
outs. Such raids often produce results — most
famously in the May 2 killing of Osama bin
Laden in Pakistan — but deeply offend Afghans
when they go wrong.

But much like the Maloof Cup, the Street

I will give Dyrdek credit because, during the

Tips on converting kid’s room to teen space
By Leanne Italie
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — That cute duckie
wallpaper or nautical furniture set were
great for your child’s baby years and just
barely tolerable through elementary
school, but a bedroom makeover is hard
to get around when a child heads for the
tumultuous teens.
Consider the four C’s — classic, com-
fort, cool and color — when providing
older kids with long-lasting lairs, er,
lovely hangout-study spaces. And keep
in mind a transformation doesn’t have to
mean tossing everything and buying all
new.
Spending selectively now may just
carry your child through the college
years and beyond, to their first apart-
ment, said design guru Nate Berkus, host
of the syndicated “Nate Berkus Show.”
Jennifer Adams Meyers, an interior
and home products designer in
Scottsdale, Ariz., said furniture in dis-
tressed, whitewashed and some darker
woods are hot trends in baby furniture,
boding well for use in a teen room
through simple sanding and painting.
Making a teen a partner in the re-
design can be fun and fruitful, she said.
“Let them have complete leeway. It
gives them the motivation to keep it
clean and organized,” Meyers said.
“Give them a cork board and have them
cut out 10 images they like.”
FURNISHINGS
A completely new set of furniture is
probably not necessary, but a few items
might be — a bigger bed, for instance.
Another piece to consider investing in is
a chest of drawers.
“Go for classic lines, not something
too youthful,” Berkus said. “Going with
a vintage chest of drawers is a good idea,
SUBURBAN LIVING
like English mahogany or Swedish
Painted. I’m more interested in people
having something that’s an investment of
a lifetime. How can I not have to replace
something because I’ve bought into a
theme?”
Teens have different priorities than lit-
tle kids. They may not care much any-
more about vast floor space to build
Lego cities, for instance. Turn over some
of that real estate to a couch and an over-
stuffed armchair for reading, and to cre-
ating a hangout-study nook worthy of
having friends over, even if it means
going for a laptop desk for homework
over a freestanding one.
Bedside tables can be painted rather
than tossed — and even double as desks,
Meyers said. A lamp can be made new
with a funky new fabric shade, and many
home improvement stores carry beaded
chandeliers in a variety of colors.
Consider keeping a rocking chair with a
new seat cushion for a reading nook.
Berkus is a big fan of vintage. He also
had some suggestions on how to avoid
spending money unnecessarily.
“The larger ticket items that I would-
n’t invest in would include wallpaper,”
he said. “That’s exclusively for a kid
room. I wouldn’t invest in a rug. Go with
stripes, black and white, blue and white,
or gray and white.”
COLOR
There’s no better way to let a tween or
teen take control of their space than put-
ting them in charge of palette, but be
prepared to accept whatever crazy color
scheme they come up with.
In addition to walls, linens can add a
blast of color and texture. “It makes
sense to let them pick,” Berkus said.
“They have a shelf life. They can only
handle so many washes. Thematic is
fine.”
Thursday • May 19, 2011 17
Wall art is huge to many teens — a
poster of a favorite sports star or horror
movie. How about a collection of color-
ful album covers from the ‘60s, a surfer
scene, or framed memorabilia such as
photos of friends and family mixed with
your child’s own artwork and souvenirs
from vacations? How about hanging
skateboards or lacrosse sticks as art?
Meyers suggested vinyl wall decals
with quotes or special words (“Peace” or
“Happiness”) as a way for a teen to per-
sonalize the room.
Let them dress windows in wild
designs and colors. Curtains come funky
and cheap these days, or buy inexpen-
sive shades they can paint themselves.
The idea is to cede some control, but not
get thrown under the bus altogether on
style, design and cost.
Chances are your little kid already had
some throw pillows. Those can live on
with new cases that accent the scheme.
Teens read and study in strange posi-
tions, so a reading wedge or a body pil-
low that can be scrunched for comfort
while working on a laptop would be a
good addition. Closets are a sticky issue. Big kids have bigger stuff, more
clothes, more shoes, more sports equipment. Renovating a

you think but too embarrassed to say that
they’d like to display some of their
growing-up stuff.
In the new room, that baby chair col-
lecting dust in the corner might be more
palatable with fresh paint covering the
bears or ducks. The piece is saved but
the nerd quotient diminished.
Reserve shelf space for a favorite doll,
toy and a few old books, but not front
and center. Consider spacing mementoes
between stacks of books, CDs or maga-
zines. Offer storage in another room for
anything else they might want to keep
but not display.

Make a list and get
to your garden tasks
By Sean Conway
TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES
The secret to good gardening is timing. My
advice to those who feel overwhelmed by the
work that needs to be done in their gardens is
to start by making a list. Just as the secret to
cooking a holiday meal for a big family gath-
ering requires some planning and a good gro-
cery list, so too does a successful garden.
The trick to keeping your garden looking
good is to get a jump on the maintenance
early in the season rather than trying to catch
up later on. Here are a few tips to help you
get ahead of things this spring.
1.) Weed all your beds early. Weeds in gen-
eral can be divided into two groups: cool sea-
son weeds and warm season weeds. Cool sea-
son weeds are already in full swing. Devote
Spring is time to get the tool shed in gear again. time to removing them early before they set
seed and you will have less work in the future.
2.) After beds are weeded either keep the
soil cultivated on a regular basis to prevent
new seed from germinating (a few minutes of
cultivating the soil each week will save hours
of weed pulling later on) or apply 2 to 3 inch-
es of mulch as soon as the weeding is done.
3.) Cut a 3- to 4-inch edge into garden beds
surrounded by lawn. Providing a sharp, deep
edge will keep grass from infiltrating into
your beds and save you hours of weeding
later in the season. It also makes your gar-
dens look neater.
4.) Apply fertilizer now to perennials while
plants are still emerging but not yet fully
grown. Place the fertilizer around the base of
each plant where it is needed. Applying it
early makes the job easier and much more
efficient. I prefer to use organic fertilizers so
I don’t have to worry about burning tender
new growth.
5.) Weed your vegetable garden early in the
season before turning the soil over. This will
keep weed seed from being dispersed into the
soil. This is especially helpful for cool season
weeds that set seed early.
6.) Apply aged manure or compost to your
vegetable garden before turning the soil over.
THE DAILY JOURNAL
This makes it easier to see how much you
have applied (especially with manure).
7.) Plant perennials as early as possible.
Even if they don’t look like much when you
purchase them, they will establish much bet-
ter in cool weather than they will later in the
season. The same holds true for transplanting
and dividing perennials; those done earlier
will look better later.
8.) When buying plants from the garden
center, bigger is not always better. Look for
sturdy young plants that are not pot bound.
Avoid buying annuals that already have flow-
ers. They will take longer to get established.
If you have no choice, then cut off the flow-
ers when you plant them so the plants put
their energy into establishing roots.
9.) In beds with stubborn weeds, put a
layer of newspaper down then mulch over the
top. The newspaper will help smother the
weeds, preventing them from growing up
through the mulch. Over time the newspaper
will rot away. This is also a good tip for cre-
ating new beds in grassy areas. Apply the
newspaper and mulch several months prior to
planting.
10.) Repair dead spots in lawns early by
removing debris, scratching soil and apply-
ing seed while temperatures are still cool and
there is adequate moisture in the ground.
Grass seed will establish faster before hot
weather arrives.
These tips may not eliminate my spring
garden chores completely, but they help me
from falling behind early in the season.

Adjusting to college kids home for summer
By Lindsey Tanner
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHICAGO — Like thousands of college stu-
dents this time of year, Northwestern
University freshman Jim Sannes can’t wait to
spend time at home this summer.
Sannes, 19, is looking forward to relaxing
and “just being around the surroundings I grew
up with, the same house I grew up with. It will
be a nice feeling.” He grew up in Kasson,
Minn., 350 miles from Northwestern’s campus
in Evanston, Ill.
But after nine months away, campus and the
place where college students grew up may
seem worlds apart. Summer at home — so
often eagerly awaited by the students, their par-
ents and siblings — is often a mixed-up time of
happy reunions, unexpected challenges and
weird new family dynamics as not-quite adult
kids return temporarily to the nest.
“They have a whole new world, filled with
new friends and new ideas, new independence,”
and that sometimes clashes with things back
home, said psychologist Karen Levin Coburn, a
consultant at Washington University in St.
Louis and author of “Letting Go: A Parent’s
Guide to Understanding the College Years.”
Cindy Jez, a 55-year-old real estate manager
in Richmond, Va., has gone through these tran-
sition summers several times with her two old-
est boys, a junior and senior in college.
“I remember crying when they first went to
college. Now I’m crying when they come
home,” she jokes.
Don’t get her wrong — Jez loves having the
boys back home. And yet, she also knows their
return means piles of dirty laundry, a perennial-
ly lost TV remote, a disconnected security
alarm to accommodate their late nights out, and
jealousy from her two younger sons as the big
men on campus suddenly get all the attention.
“The first time they come back there’s always
an adjustment period,” Jez said. They’re used to
the freedom of college life, and “there are still
boundaries at home.”
“I try not to be a nag. I try to recognize that
they’re young adults,” she says of sons Nolan,
20, and Cory, 22. “They need to have their own
sense of responsibility. At the same time, I find
myself constantly doing reminders. I’ll send
them texts: ‘Picked up eight pairs of filthy
socks in the family room last night.”’
“It’s a balancing act” for everybody, Jez said.
Meryl Pearlstein, a New York City public
relations executive and writer, experienced that
last summer when her son, Evan, returned
home after freshman year at the University of
Vermont. Having him back home was a treat,
and knowing he’d successfully navigated that
first year away made Pearlstein and her hus-
band proud. But with a younger son at home,
SUBURBAN LIVING Thursday • May 19, 2011 19
“there are turf wars for the car, the living room,
the TV and more,” Pearlstein said.
“I do hate having World Wrestling
Foundation on TV and finding snack wrappers
in the living room.” And when Evan would
announce that he’d be home at 3 a.m., “We
said, ‘No you won’t.’ “
“There’s a bit of give and take over the sum-
mer,” Pearlstein said.
Times have changed since Coburn’s book,
now in its fifth printing, was first published, in
1988. Today’s college freshmen weren’t born,
and talking with mom and dad while away at
school often meant waiting in line for the pay
phone in the dorm hallway.
“The whole concept of helicopter parents
didn’t exist,” Coburn said. Now, with ubiqui-
tous cell phones, texting, email, and Skype,
families often communicate daily. That can cre-
ate an illusion that things will be like they
always were. Coburn says students and parents
need to “do a reality check.”
“For many parents, it’s hard to let go of that
parental role, even after nine months apart,”
Coburn said. “And kids used to leaving dorms a
mess, staying up all night, need to realize that’s
not how it works in their parents’ house.”
Families should discuss expectations soon
after their students arrive back home — things
like curfews, household chores, family dinners,
and spending money, so everyone is one the
same page, Coburn said.
Despite all their new-found independence,
for college kids, home “is still their emotional
touchstone. It’s just important for parents to be
sensitive to that,” Coburn said.
“They expect their parents to be totally sup-
portive of their changes — maybe the kid who
used to only eat burgers has gone vegan, or cut
off all her hair. But they really don’t want their
parents to change at all,” she said. “They want
things to be just as they were when they left.”
When Cindy Jez’s son, Nolan, returned home
after freshman at the University of Kentucky, Summer at home — so often eagerly awaited by the students, their parents and siblings —
he found that his 17-year-old brother had taken is often a mixed-up time of happy reunions, unexpected challenges and weird new family
over his room, with the big TV and a huge dynamics as not-quite adult kids return temporarily to the nest.
Texas Longhorns mural Nolan loved.
“I was very connected to that room,” Nolan
Jez said wistfully. He had to move to an
upstairs bedroom. His parents had warned him,
but still, it was “definitely” an adjustment.
There are other adjustments, too, he said.
“My brothers hate when I come home. They
feel like I’m ruling the house.”
“My mom goes off on these random spells
when she wants us to do 1 million chores,” he
said. And his parents “make it very obvious to
my brother and I that we have to be in by a cer-
tain time.”
Still, Nolan said he doesn’t really chafe at the
rules. “I understand. It’s their house.” And, he
added, “I love being home.”

Schwarzenegger’s comeback remains on track
By Jake Coyle
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Arnold Schwarzenegger’s return to
showbiz has succeeded in one way: He’s
a hit in late-night.
The former California governor has
been preparing a return to Hollywood,
but becoming a punch line wasn’t on the
agenda. Yet that’s exactly what’s hap-
pened since Schwarzenegger acknowl-
edged Tuesday that he had fathered a
child of a longtime household staff
member more than a decade ago. The
revelation followed last week’s separa-
tion of Schwarzenegger and his wife of

and score her driver’s license, which to
her is the ultimate symbol of freedom
and independence,” Assistant Principal
of Instruction Jim Coe wrote in a letter
of recommendation about Zelter.
Zelter grew up in San Mateo. A shy
child, Zelter attended Highlands
Elementary School and Borel Middle
School before going to Aragon. It wasn’t
until her sophomore year that Zelter
decided to give high school activities a
try.
It might seem strange for a shy girl to
join choir and school theater produc-
tions. Both require performances in front
of an audience. But when someone sug-
gested Zelter get involved, she realized
choir would be a great place for her to
start.
“She is such an inspiration,” said
David Martin, co-chair of the visual and
performing arts department.
Martin noted Zelter is gracious in
accepting help but determined at the
same time to do things on her own.
An ongoing joke around the choir
room was that Zelter would need to get a
parking permit for her walker, which
always seemed to be blocking the door,
Martin said.
Zelter found choir to be a stress
release. Her enjoyment of music led
Zelter to audition for theater offerings.
She’s performed in three productions

Leonel held a measuring cup for his

District. “Students learn healthy habits
and develop a positive vision of the

that helps our children and guides stu-
dents to reach their fullest potential.”
Children had a chance to learn about
sugar in drinks, play fun games, talk
about fruit and vegetables and learn
about worms and composting.
The 9- and 10-year-olds had simple
lessons to take away from the morning
of activities.
Hanzel, for example, learned not to
smoke. Amanda added that smoking
could lead to cancer.
Adrian and Marlen took away that it’s
better to drink water instead of soda.
Adrian plans to drink less soda as a
result.

San Mateo Police Department.
Fritzsching is currently on leave from
terday and asked for an appointed attor-

release on his own recognizance and set
bail at $100,000.
He returns to court May 31 for a pre-

THE DAILY JOURNAL
Many believe Schwarzenegger — who
had been positioning himself as a highly
paid speaker and green energy advocate
— is politically relegated to John
Edwards oblivion. Showbiz, however,
can be forgiving of even the most
appalling indiscretions. But the 63-year-
old Schwarzenegger may have made
rejuvenating his dormant movie career
more challenging.
It doesn’t help that the first project
Schwarzenegger announced after leav-
ing office in January was a children’s
cartoon, to be globally distributed by a
company called Your Family
Entertainment.
“I have to be my own advocate,”
Zelter said, noting it wasn’t too difficult.
She simply had to be willing to ask for
notes or a presentation to be emailed to
her to keep up.
Timed in-class assignments were also
challenging, but Zelter overcame earn-
ing a combined GPA of 3.75.
Getting her license was another chal-
lenge. Zelter’s parents were unsure if she
could drive alone. They took her to the
College of San Mateo on a Sunday,
when the parking lots were wide open,
and lessons began. She had to overcome
some coordination issues but got her
license at 17 and can drive a car without
any modification.
“It’s a huge sense of independence,”
she said. “I showed people I could
drive.”
This fall, she’ll take that sense of inde-
pendence and tendency to work hard
with her to Chapman University in
Orange, Calif. where Zelter plans to
double major in business administration
and psychology. What she’ll do with that
degree is up in the air, Zelter is simply
happy to embark on the challenge ahead.

Your success in the year ahead will be predicated
upon the foundations you lay. If what you do is solid
and strong, the results will be as well. If you are
wishy-washy in your efforts, your life could quickly
spin out of control.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- When involved in an en-
deavor in which you’re playing only an insignificant
role, keep your opinions to yourself. Listen to what is
being said, but don’t comment on things.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Don’t use a social
gathering as an opportunity to try to sell some kind of
business deal to a fellow attendee. Not only will it be an
