Seventeen-year-old William Bullis
had only recently shared his dreams of
attending culinary school with his moth-
er when his life was cut short Sept. 9,
2010.
Bullis was one of eight people killed
in the Sept. 9 in the natural gas explosion
and re in San Bruno. William was one
of three from the Bullis family killed
that day. His father, Greg, grandmother
Lavonne along with their dog Lucky
were lost that day.
Last year, his mother
Sue Bullis recalled,
her son had shared
plans to attend culi-
nary school only two
days prior. She had
been surprised.
After his death,
Sue Bullis worked to
create a $15,000
scholarship to the International Culinary
Center in Campbell in her sons honor.
Nineteen-year-old Anthony Ortiz from
Hayward was the rst recipient. Ortiz,
who recently graduated from the French
Culinary Institute program, graduated
from James Logan High School in 2011.
He began cooking with his grandmother
at a young age. It was in a basic culinary
class in high school that Ortiz realized
his love for the culinary arts.
Covering the $32,000 tuition was a
challenge, however. The scholarship
helped make it possible. During the
interview process, Ortiz was interviewed

BAY CITY NEWS SERVICE
The storm that struck Thursday night trig-
gered more than 700 lightning strikes around
the Bay Area, set new records for rainfall and
left thousands without power, ofcials said
Friday.
The National Weather Service recorded 750
lightning strikes overnight in the area extend-
ing from the North Bay to Monterey County,
an unusually high number for one storm,
according to meteorologist Chris Stumpf.
That total includes strikes that occurred off
the coast.
Several areas saw new records set for rain-
fall on Thursday, breaking previous records
set in 2003, Stumpf said.
Downtown San Francisco received 1.24
inches of rain on Thursday, breaking the pre-
vious record for April 12 of 0.92 inches.
Downtown Oakland got 1.26 inches, well
above the previous record of 0.59 inches.
Oakland International Airport got 1.2 inches,
shattering the previous record of 0.77 inches.
The storm helped increase rainfall for what
has generally been a dry year, but totals still
remain well below average for this time of
year, Stumpf said.
I know a lot of places are sitting around 60
percent of normal for this time of year, but
were still nowhere near where we were last
year, Stumpf said. Last year we were either
at or above 100 percent for many places.
Thursdays storm caused flight delays,
mudslides, minor ooding and power outages
around the Bay Area.
At San Francisco International Airport, 60
ights were canceled on Thursday, including
one London-bound United Airlines ight that
turned around after it was struck by lightning.
About half a dozen ights departed Friday
about an hour behind schedule as the airport
catches up from Thursday night, but most
ights were on time, airport duty manager
Nancy Parker said.
Its normal operations for a rainy day,
Parker said. Actually, better than normal.
The storm also caused power outages
throughout the Bay Area. In Concord, 4,500
customers lost power when a wire went down
around 10 p.m. in the 1600 block of Glacier
Drive, PG&E spokeswoman Tamar
Sarkissian said. Our crews have been work-
ing very hard through the night to restore any
outages that remain from this spring storm,
she said Friday morning.
Perhaps the most dramatic damage caused
by the storm occurred in Piedmont, where a
mudslide in the Blair Park area reported at 7
a.m. Friday brought down trees and closed
Moraga Avenue.
The California Highway Patrol also report-
ed some lingering ooding on freeway con-
nector ramps in the Hayward and San
Francisco areas.
After a week of rain, the weekend is
expected to be clear and breezy, with temper-
atures increasing into the next week, Stumpf
said.
Storm sets rainfall records
San Bruno receives $70M settlement
On Friday, the city of San Bruno received
$70 million in restitution from Pacic Gas &
Electric to aid the communitys recovery from
the Sept. 9, 2010 fatal explosion and re.
These funds will never bring back the lives
that were taken, the memories that were
destroyed and the City prior to 6:11 p.m. Sept.
9, 2010, Mayor Jim Ruane said in a prepared
statement. We will never forget the tragedy,
but we must move beyond the explosion as
individuals and as a community. These restitu-
tion funds will be used for a greater good for
all the citizens of our city and to help us, as a
community, move forward.
The agreement, which totals $70 million,
includes $68.75 million and ve properties
with the combined value of $1.25 million.
Properties included in the settlement are
vacant lots previously procured by the utility
agency. A separate nonprot agency will be
created to oversee the funds. The city esti-
mates that process could take up to a year.
Once established, the leaders of the new non-
prot will also determine the best use for the
money. Until then, the city will invest the
funds in a separate account overseen by City
Treasurer John Marty, a plan the city approved
last month.
The settlement was made in addition to
money already committed by PG&E to the
community. However, the most recent settle-
ment does change the previous commitments.
For example, PG&E also pledged a $70 mil-
lion trust to cover direct costs related to the
recovery like staff time and infrastructure
repairs. That amount was lowered to $50 mil-
lion as a result of the most recent settlement.

San Mateo County takes
a stand against bullying
The San Mateo County Ofce of Education,
in partnership with Community Gatepath and
the 17th District PTA, will launch its commu-
nity kickoff event for RESPECT! 24/7, a two-
year, countywide anti-bullying and civility ini-
tiative, Tuesday, April 17.
The impetus for the initiative came as a
result of a 2011 San Mateo County Civil
Grand Jury Report which called upon the San
Mateo County Ofce of Education to provide
accelerated leadership in the area of anti-bul-
lying.
Last September, all 23 school districts were
represented at a working seminar in which
school district administrators worked to revise
and strengthen district anti-bullying and
harassment policies. Out of that work, the
awareness arose that no single system can
tackle this work alone, that in fact, prioritizing
the value of civility and respectful discourse in
our community takes all systems working
together.
The RESPECT! 24/7 Initiative aims to
empower students, families and communities
to prioritize respectful behavior and demand it
of themselves and each other. This initiative
intends to reduce the incidents of bullying and
to empower children and youth to exhibit
leadership on this issue. RESPECT! 24/7 pro-
vides a starting place for a deeper county-wide
conversation about civil behavior and accept-
able norms for a caring community.
The kickoff begins with a V.I.P. breakfast
followed by a general session that features
Linda Fogg Phillips, a national expert on
social media and co-author of Facebook for
Parents and The Facebook Guide for
Educators.
Other RESPECT! 24/7 events include an
evening forum for parents at the Bayside
Performing Arts Center, again featuring Linda
Fogg Phillips. The free parent event, which is
open to the public, will be held from 6:30 p.m.
to 8:30 p.m. Tuesday, April 17 at the Bayside
Performing Arts Center, 2025 Kehoe Ave.,
San Mateo. Concurrently, at the same loca-
tion, student leaders from across the county
will meet to discuss the problem of bullying
on school campus and ways in which San
Mateo County youth can take action to com-
bat the issue.

An Oakland man arrested in
Hillsborough after prying his way
inside with a screwdriver while his
girlfriend knocked at the door was
charged Friday in that case and an
earlier burglary.
Maurice Hayes, 26, of Oakland,
pleaded not guilty to two counts of
residential burglary and one count
of grand theft. His alleged accom-
plice and mother of his child, Janey
Jackson, 23, of Oakland, was
charged with one count of residen-
tial burglary.
The pair was arrested after
Hillsborough police responded to a
call to the 500 block of Pullman
Road in which a man was reported
to be in the backyard and a woman
was knocking on the front door. The
67-year-old homeowner said he saw
the woman through the window as
she knocked for ve minutes but he
didnt answer the door. Meanwhile,
a man later identified as Hayes
allegedly pried his way into the
home with a screwdriver. The
homeowner yelled he was on the
phone with 911 and the intruder
ed.
The couple drove down Skyline
Boulevard and witnesses saw Hayes
toss a screwdriver that later
matched up with the pry marks on
the Hillsborough home, District
Attorney Steve Wagstaffe said.
Authorities arrested the couple
during a trafc stop.
Hayes also admitted to authorities
a Jan. 19 burglary in Hillsborough
which led to the second charge,
Wagstaffe said.
Authorities reported Jacksons
cellphone contained text messages
from Hayes detailing plans for the
burglary and instructions to ask for
directions if somebody opened the
door.
In court Friday, both pleaded not
guilty and bail was set at $50,000.
Hayes is also held on a no-bail
parole hold. Both asked for court-
appointed attorneys and returns to
court April 26 for a preliminary
hearing.
A similar crime was attempted on
the 3000 block of Alcazar Drive in
Burlingame Thursday. Police are
still looking for two suspects in that
crime.

Cops find charred body
in home after standoff
MODESTO The body of a
man suspected of gunning down a
deputy and a locksmith when they
tried to serve eviction papers was
discovered Friday in the rubble of
an apartment that was gutted by
fire during a standoff with authori-
ties.
Police said it could take weeks to
identity the charred remains found
after the blaze collapsed the second
floor of the structure.
Property records show James
Ferrario, 45, lived at the address in
the Whispering Woods develop-
ment.
Jonathon Mullinix, 20, a neigh-
bor, said Ferrario was reserved and
often kept to himself.
He had told Mullinix he worked
for a private security company and
had handguns, rifles and shotguns.
Mullinix said Ferrario also had
several security cameras in win-
dows of his house.
He seemed like someone who
wanted to be left alone, Mullinix
said.

Train strikes
car, minor injuries
A mother and daughter were trans-
ported to a hospital Friday evening
after their Saab was struck by an
express train in Menlo Park, a
Caltrain spokeswoman said.
Just after 5 p.m., the 1996 Saab that
was traveling west on Ravenswood
Avenue was hit by southbound train
No. 264, according to Caltrain
spokeswoman Christine Dunn.
There were vehicles in front of and
behind the Saab and the daughter,
who was driving, did not allow
enough space in front of her car to
clear the intersection, Dunn said.
The train struck the back of the car.
The daughter was transported to
Stanford Hospital with minor injuries.
Her mom was also taken to the hospi-
tal as a precaution, she said.
The train was not damaged and
none of the passengers reported
injuries.
Trains were delayed up to about 90
minutes. The tracks reopened at 6:05
p.m., according to Caltrain ofcials.
Local brief
By Hannah Dreier
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO Gov. Jerry
Brown urged lawmakers on Friday to
man up and pass his proposed
spending cuts, a choice of words that
rankled some female lawmakers and
advocates for the needy.
During an interview with San
Francisco radio station KGO, Brown
reiterated his hope that the
Democratically controlled
Legislature would approve the bil-
lions of dollars in cuts he proposed in
January to help close the states
decit, including additional rollbacks
to social service programs. The
Democratic governor had asked that
cuts be enacted by March, but leg-
islative leaders decided to wait until
he releases his revised budget in May.
Were trying to be as prudent as
we can and thats why the Legislature
has to man up, make the cuts, Brown
said.
Sen. Noreen Evans, D-Santa Rosa,
was among those who bristled at the
phrasing.
Man up doesnt quite apply
here, Evans said. The reason its a
poor choice of words is the cuts
would fall most heavily on the
women and children in the state.
Not only would women bear the
brunt of cuts to subsidized childcare
and the welfare-to-work system,
Evans said, but they also would suffer
disproportionally from layoffs at
public schools and homecare pro-
grams.
Maybe its time for the women in
the Legislature to take charge of this
problem, given the fact that its most-
ly the women that are being impact-
ed, she said.
Assemblywoman Betsy Butler, a
Democrat from Marina del Ray, nee-
dled Brown in a statement that was
lled intentionally with clichis and
referred to the governors failed
attempt last year to persuade
Republicans to approve temporary
tax hikes.
We need the Governor to shake
off last year, dig down deep, show
intestinal fortitude and not alligator
arm his way across the middle to help
us deliver those Republican votes,
she said.
Browns comment recalled one by
former Republican Gov. Arnold
Schwarzenegger, when he mocked
lawmakers as girlie men during a
2004 budget standoff.
Schwarzeneggers remarks temporar-
ily soured relations with some law-
makers and with gay and lesbian
groups.
Of the 120 members of the
California Legislature, 33 are
women, according to the California
Legislative Womens Caucus.
The governors comment also drew
a response from Anthony Wright,
executive director of Health Access
California, who said in a statement
there was nothing manly about
approving cuts to childrens health
care and other social services.
Brown:Man up on budget cuts
By Robert Burns
WASHINGTON The Pentagon
said Friday the number of reported
sexual assaults in the U.S. military
rose slightly last year, and Defense
Secretary Leon Panetta promised
new steps to prevent assaults and to
hold perpetrators accountable.
In its annual report to Congress
on sexual assaults, the Pentagon
there were 3,192 reports of sexual
assault involving service members
as either victims or perpetrators in
the 2011 budget year ended Sept.
30. That is a 1
percent increase
over the 3,158
assaults report-
ed a year earlier
and 3,230
reported the
year before that.
The Pentagon
has estimated
that 86 percent
of assaults go unreported.
U.S. Rep. Jackie Speier, D-San
Mateo, called the latest report
regrettably, more of the same.
In a statement, Panetta said he has
made it a top priority to nd ways to
reduce sexual assaults, to make vic-
tims feel secure enough to report the
crime without fear of retribution
and to ensure that offenders are held
accountable
He noted that Fridays report
showed that courts martial are
used more frequently now in dis-
ciplining perpetrators. Of the 791
military sexual offenders pun-
ished last year, 62 percent faced a
court martial. That compares with
52 percent in 2010 and 30 percent
in 2007. The proportion of cases
in which less severe forms of dis-
cipline are pursued, such as
administrative actions and dis-
charges, has declined in that same
period.
Air Force Maj. Gen. Kay Hertog,
director of the Pentagons sexual
assault prevention and response
ofce, said the more frequent court
martialing of perpetrators reects an
increasing awareness among mili-
tary members about what consti-
tutes a sexual assault and how to
report it, as well as better training of
investigators.
Its a positive trend, she said in
a telephone interview.
Mayor carries woman
out of her burning home
NEWARK, N.J. In a smoky
stairwell, with embers falling from
the ceiling and his neighbor slung
over his shoulder, Cory Booker
called it his proverbial come to
Jesus moment.
The mayor of New Jerseys largest
city was carrying out a constituent he
had rushed into a burning home to
save, rst pushing aside his security
detail who tried to hold him back by
his belt. He didnt feel like a hero: I
felt terror, he told reporters on
Friday, holding a
childrens fire
safety video with
his burned, band-
aged right hand.
The 42-year-
old mayor, who
has dug out
snowbound resi-
dents in a bliz-
zard, lived in a
rundown housing project to make a
point and tagged along on police
patrols to lecture drug dealers, took
on a new status Friday: the politi-
cian who can do almost anything.
Governor chased by
four bears in backyard
MONTPELIER, Vt. A late-
night encounter with four bears try-
ing to snack from backyard bird-
feeders gave Vermonts governor a
lesson in what not to do in bear
country.
One of the bears chased Peter
Shumlin and nearly caught the gov-
ernor while he was trying to shoo
the animals away, he said Friday.
I had a close encounter with a
bear, four bears
to be exact,
Shumlin said.
Shumlin said
he had just gone
to bed inside his
rented home on
the edge of
Montpelier late
We d n e s d a y
when the bears
woke him up. He looked out the
window and saw the bears in a tree
about ve feet from the house trying
to get food from his four birdfeed-
ers.

OPINION 9
Letters to the editor
By Jenna Tam
T
he Tuolumne River starts in
Yosemite National Park in the
Sierra Nevada Mountains. The river
is 162 miles long and flows through tall
trees, mountains, forests and deep valleys.
You can do many things on the river or near
the river such as hiking, camping, fishing
and canoeing. The Tuolumne River is a
home for many animals, such as Chinook
salmon, steelhead trout and river otters.
Bears, mountain lions and bald eagles
depend on the river for water and food. The
river powers hydroelectric plants which
send electricity to San Francisco, Santa
Clara and San Mateo. More importantly, it
sends clean water to the Bay Area.
It is important for everyone to conserve
water because water is important for every-
thing. Only about 1percent of the earths
surface is usable fresh drinking water.
About 2 percent is fresh water, but not
usable or drinkable. The remaining 97 per-
cent is salt or ocean water. Today, there are
about 7 billion people in the world. Some
estimates predict that in 10 years, there will
be about 8 billion people in the world.
Therefore, in the next 10 years, there will
be a lot more people who need water. Also,
the animals and plants in the world wont
be able to survive without enough water
either. That is why we should conserve
water.
Some ideas to save water are to turn off
the water when you brush your teeth,
because you save 2 gallons of water every
minute! Another way is to take shorter
showers and still be clean by putting on
soap and shampoo with the water turned
off. A leaky faucet that drips at a rate of 1
drop per second can waste 2,700 gallons of
water a year. Try to only run your dish-
washers and washing machines when they
are full. Dispose all chemicals properly at a
hazardous waste center and not into the
sewer or down the drain because it pollutes
our drinking water. Another way is if you
dont finish a glass of water, pour it in the
plants. You can use rechargeable batteries
because the mercury in disposable batteries
will eventually leak out and poison the
water it runs into. You can use a reusable
water bottle to use less plastic and reduce
the cups and glasses you have to wash.
Finally, help someone install a water-saving
shower head.
In 2010, my family went to Yellowstone
National Park. We saw bison, bald eagles
and other exciting animals. I learned about
Yellowstone tries to preserve everything the
way it was over 125 years ago to keep the
same amount of wildlife. Yellowstone cares
a lot about their nature.

Gunfights
Editor,
Instead of the Gunfight at OK Corral,
will we be looking at the Shootout on
Aisle Seven by fresh produce at the local
Safeway? Is that our future with Stand Your
Ground? Say we move to Texas where
Open Carry allows folks to swagger into
the dry cleaners with a six gun swinging
from their side and say, hey you stepped
on my toe, or buddy you cut in the line
waiting to be served so draw, and well see
whos served next and who gets carried out
of here. Is that my parking spot or yours?
You think so? Well my AK-47 says its
mine. If all these armed pinheads assume
everyone else is as well, then its shoot first
and take names after.
Wow, what a great leap forward for
mankind (or what passes for it these days).
Stand you ground partner, but lose your
civilization.

Opposition to National
Defense Authorization Act
Editor,
President Obama has just signed into law
the National Defense Authorization Act.
This new law would put journalists,
activists and our liberty in jeopardy. This
draconian law has sections that provide the
unrestricted detention of U.S. citizens under
some circumstances.
Obama, when signing the law, admitted
that such detentions are possible but prom-
ised not to exercise it. The NDAA detention
provisions are truly alarming. It would give
the president the right to employ the mili-
tary to knock on your door, based on secret
facts, and to indefinitely detain you without
due process. A radical violation against the
U.S. Constitution and the Bill Of Rights.
This bill contains provisions that effectively
abolish the U.S. Bill Of Rights. It grants
dictatorial power to the president to order
the military to arrest U.S. citizens on U.S.
soil and detain them for an indefinite peri-
od.
Constitutional experts say prolife ter-
rorists, which means all prolifers, could
be permanently detained without trial under
law, said LifeSite News. The Obama media
widely ignored the NDAA, as did many
neocon conservative outlets. The war
against religion continues with the
Department of Health and Human Services,
now mandating Catholic Churchs affiliates,
Catholic charities, hospitals and colleges,
that receive federal grants, to offer abor-
tion, contraception and sterilization, which
violates Gods laws, religious liberty and
conscious. In other words, it is mandating
the Catholic Church and all Christian
churches to violate the laws of God.

High-speed rail
Editor,
It is encouraging to hear there was consid-
eration being given to canceling the high-
speed train (in response to Kay Deehans let-
ter, High-speed rail in the April 3 edition
of the Daily Journal).
This is a must for the future. California
should not take federal or state money to
squander on what would be transport for the
very few who would pay what it costs to
ride. All this talk from politicians and other
proponents of high-speed rail is a load of
crap. Why do we continue to trust those who
have frequently lied to the public about pro-
jected results and what it will cost, not to
mention the urban blight that could be
thwarted upon the Peninsula. Barely a day
goes by, some pundit, activist or politician
talks about budget shortfalls and how we
must cut funding for schools, police, re
departments, etc. while roads and bridges are
in decay.
And now were talking about another dys-
functional transport system to be built by a
foreign company with old technology?

Protect the Tuolumne River, save water
Turning a
D to an R
By Russ Cohen
W
ill high-speed rail turn a die-
hard Democrat into a card-car-
rying Republican?
If there were an instruction manual on
how to convert a (D) to
an (R) look to the
California High-Speed
Rail project and how it
has caused a great divide
along party lines.
Clearly, the discus-
sions about the merits of
the program have
devolved from lets
bring California into the future to lets
create jobs right now.
Democrats have been hiding behind the
mantra, lets do high-speed rail right and
Republicans have recognized that you cant
do it right if it will cause great harm not
only to the environment, the economy and
the states financial solvency but will sad-
dle our children (and quite possibly their
children) with insurmountable debt, more
reductions to education funding and a rail
system that didnt alleviate the gridlock it
was promised to eliminate.
Heres my concern about all of this. Im a
Democrat. I always resented the fact that
Republicans pigeonholed us as spenders
and themselves as fiscal conservatives.
I always thought of myself, a former
elected official, as someone who would
look at the issue and judge it on its merits
especially if it were a land use issue or
public works project. I didnt let political
ideologies bias my decision. That doesnt
seem to be the case when it comes to high-
speed rail and I dont understand why party
politics has become the line in the sand.
But it has.
I recently asked a local Democratic
leader why he supported high-speed rail
despite the fact that every independent
study of the project suggests that it is
wrought with unanswered questions and is
filled with risk. He simply said, Because
Im a Democrat. Did he really mean the
governor, a Democrat, supports high-speed
rail whole-heartedly and, as a Democrat, he
wasnt going to go against him?
Here is my plea: I mean no ill will
toward Republicans, but I dont want to be
one. Id like to remain a Democrat, but I
wont be able to if the states dems insist
on falling lock step behind the governor
and play into the stereotype that we dems
will spend federal dollars boondoggle or
not.
To all elected Democrats: Stop hat danc-
ing around the lets-do-it-right sombrero. If
you want to justify going against the gover-
nor, simply wave the pages of his own
Legislative Analysts report or his own peer
review report or the UC Berkeley
Transportation Institute report, all of which
prove that this is a project that carries much
more risk than reward. Remind him that
this project does not resemble what many
of his fellow Democrats approved in 2008
and that recent polls indicate they are no
longer enamored with the concept now that
they know the costs to their wallets and
their quality of life. Dont allocate another
dime on this project dont even consider
it.
Please save one Democrat from jumping
on to the train headed for Republican head-
quarters and more importantly, save
California from a long-lasting train wreck.

suggests you visit highspeedboondoggle.com

It was another losing week on Wall
Street after worries about Europe
returned.
Stocks closed lower on Friday and
closed out their worst week of the year
so far. The Dow Jones industrial aver-
age lost 1.6 percent for the week, the
Standard & Poors 500 index fell 2 per-
cent.
The Dow is still ahead 5 percent for
the year after a gangbusters first quar-
ter. After the kind of returns investors
have enjoyed so far this year, some its
not surprising that we sort of slosh
around here for a bit, said Jim
Dunigan, managing executive of invest-
ments for PNC Wealth Management.
On Friday the Dow lost 136.99 points
to close at 12,849.59, a loss of 1.1 per-
cent. It was down all day but the losses
got worse in the last half-hour. The
decline wiped out much of the Dows
181-point gain the day before.
The Standard & Poors 500 index fell
17.31 points, or 1.3 percent, to
1,370.26. The Nasdaq composite fell
44.22 points, 1.5 percent, to 3,011.33.
Investors had several reasons to won-
der about the prospects for global eco-
nomic growth. Higher borrowing costs
in Europe reminded investors that the
continents debt problems arent over.
Growth slowed in China. And a closely
watched gauge of consumer confidence
came in weaker than analysts were
expecting.
Peter Cardillo, chief market econo-
mist at Rockwell Global Capital, said
investors are worried that Europes eco-
nomic problems will be bigger than
previously expected. Europe needs to
growth to fix its debt problems, but
higher borrowing costs could force
more cuts in government spending.
You cant have growth if you have
too much austerity, Cardillo said. I
think thats what the fear is.
European markets fell broadly.
Indexes in France and Germany fell
more than 2.4 percent. The FTSE 100
index in Britain fell 1 percent.
The worries are concentrated in
Spain and Italy, and it showed up in
their financial markets Friday. Spains
main stock index fell 3.6 percent and is
now down 15 percent for the year. The
yield on its 10-year government bond
rose to 5.93 percent, and Italys rose to

SAN FRANCISCO Yahoo CEO
Scott Thompson is expected to elaborate
on his turnaround plans when the belea-
guered Internet company releases its
rst-quarter results.
The report, scheduled to be released
after the stock market closes Tuesday, is
expected to show Yahoo Inc. remains in
a malaise that has been hobbling its
stock for years.
Unless there is a big surprise in the
rst-quarter numbers, investors are more
likely to be focused on what Thompson
says during a conference call that will be
held shortly after the report comes out.
Thompson has promised to use the
call as a forum for explaining his vision
after laying off 2,000 employees, or
about 14 percent of Yahoos workforce,
earlier this month. Most investors
seemed to believe the cuts were long
overdue, but now they want to know how
Thompson intends to revive Yahoos rev-
enue growth with fewer resources.
Figuring out how to snap Yahoo out of
its nancial funk is a problem that three
other CEOs havent been able to gure
out during the past ve years. Yahoo
lured Thompson away from eBay Inc.s
PayPal payment service three months
ago in hopes that he would come up with
a better plan.
Thompson has offered few concrete
details so far. He has made it clear that
Yahoo needs to do a better job of ana-
lyzing the data that the company collects
about its websites 700 million monthly
visitors so it can sell more advertising.
He also believes Yahoo needs to focus on
improving its mobile services as people
increasingly surf the Web on smart-
phones and tablet computers instead of
desktop and laptop computers.
In an effort to spur more rapid inno-
vation, Thompson is streamlining
Yahoos management to minimize
bureaucracy. He also is trying to sharp-
en the companys focus on his top prior-
ities, a process that may lead to the sale
of some Yahoo services. Thompson
already has begun disposing of a Yahoo
division that helps place ads around the
Web.
Yahoo is in this situation largely
because it hasnt been keeping pace with
Internet search leader Google Inc. and
social networking leader Facebook Inc.
as more advertising shifted online.
Googles annual revenue has increased
from $22 billion in 2008 to nearly $38
billion last year while Facebooks annu-
al revenue has soared from $272 million
to $3.7 billion during the same period.
Meanwhile, Yahoos annual revenue has
crumbled from $7.2 billion in 2007 to $5
billion last year.
Thompson may not have a lot of time
to x things. Tensions are already rising
with one of Yahoos major shareholders,
activist investor Daniel Loeb, who has
become increasingly antagonistic toward
Thompson while waging a campaign to
gain four seats on the companys board
of directors.
Yahoo CEO to outline his strategy

NEW YORK Wells Fargos prot
jumped 13 percent in the rst three
months of the year, thanks to strong
mortgage lending and a drop in delin-
quent loans, the bank said Friday.
Net income available to common
shareholders climbed to $4.02 billion
from $3.57 billion a year ago. On a per-
share basis, earnings were 75 cents,
beating the 73 cents expected by ana-
lysts polled by FactSet. The bank also
beat on revenue, bringing in $21.6 bil-
lion instead of the predicted $20.4 bil-
lion.
The San Francisco-based bank, the
countrys fourth-largest, has fared better
than many of its peers throughout the
global economic meltdown, muscling
its way to become both the biggest
mortgage lender and servicer as rival
Bank of America dramatically scaled
back its own mortgage business. Nearly
a third of mortgages made in the U.S.
now come from Wells, according to Guy
Cecala of Inside Mortgage Finance.
That distinction has brought revenue
gains but also legal and public-relations
headaches. Friday, the bank said it set
aside more money to pay investors who
allege they were misled about mort-
gage-backed securities the bank sold
them before the nancial crisis implod-
ed in the fall of 2008. Wells also said it
set aside more money for litigation
expenses, though it didnt give specics.
In February, Wells and other banks
agreed to settle allegations that the
banks had bungled some foreclosure l-
ings. The Securities and Exchange
Commission is also examining whether
it properly disclosed risks about its
mortgage-backed securities shortly
before the nancial crisis.
R.W. Baird analyst David George said
Wells had a solid quarter and predict-
ed it would be able to trim expenses and
raise its capital level throughout the
year. But he also said he expected the
stock price would be at given its previ-
ous run-up. As of Thursdays close,
Wells stock was up 23 percent for the
year. It fell 3.5 percent Friday.
Stifel Nicolaus analyst Christopher
Mutascio noted the lack of loan growth
and called it concerning. Total loans
were up about 2 percent compared to
the previous year, and down 0.4 percent
from the previous quarter. An increase
in commercial and industrial loans, as
well as foreign loans, helped offset a
slight decline in consumer loans over
the year.
Wells Fargo beats earnings expectations
U.S. inflation mild as gas prices rise more slowly
WASHINGTON Gas prices rose more slowly in
March, keeping overall U.S. ination mild.
The consumer price index rose 0.3 percent in March, the
Labor Department said Friday. Thats slower than
Februarys 0.4 percent rise.
Excluding food and gas, so-called core prices
increased 0.2 percent in March.
Ination has eased since last fall and is expected to stay
tame. In 12 months that ended in March, prices rose 2.7
percent. Thats below last years peak year-over-year rate
of 3.9 percent.
Core prices have risen 2.3 percent in the past 12 months,
close to the Federal Reserves ination target of 2 percent.
Prices are benign and likely to stay that way for some
time yet, said Ian Shepherdson, an economist at High
Frequency Economics.

Cougars pick up first PAL win

The Half Moon Bay baseball team picked
up a couple of rsts with its 10-7 win over
rst-place Menlo-Atherton Friday afternoon
in Atherton.
First, it was the Cougars initial road victo-
ry of the season and, more importantly, their
rst Peninsula Athletic League Bay Division
game of the 2012 campaign.
We broke a trend, said Half Moon Bay
manager Steve Terraszas. To battle the way
they did, Im proud.
While the game wont go down as a text-
book way to go about winning, Half Moon
Bay (1-4-1 PAL Bay, 4-11-1 overall) did just
enough to earn the victory. That would be the
perfect way to describe the performance of
Half Moon Bay starting pitcher Peter Basich.
He worked into the fth inning, allowing just
three hits, but he was far from sharp, walking
seven and giving up six earned runs. Of the
seven batters Basich walked, six scored.
I thought he did a great job, Terraszas
said. Id like to eliminate the walks, but he
put the ball in play and let his defense help
him out.
Pete Richardson relieved Basich in the fth
inning and pitched three innings to earn the
save, giving up one run on one hit.
But Basich can thank the Cougars offense
for picking him up, including Basich himself,
who was 2 for 3 from the plate, with a pair of
two-run singles and a walk from the cleanup
position.
In fact, it was the top of the Half Moon Bay
order that did most of the damage. In addition
to Basichs four RBI, leadoff hitter Henry
Fassinger was 4 for 5 with a RBI and two runs
scored; Chet Silveria drove in a run and
scored twice from the No. 2 position; and
Brett Berghammer was 2 for 3 with two RBI
and two runs scored.
Half Moon Bay is never easy to play, said
M-A manager Mike Amoroso. Theyll do
whatever they can to win a ball game.
Despite not hitting the ball out of the ineld,
the Cougars took a 1-0 lead in the top of the
rst. Fassinger led off with a bunt single, stole
second and moved to third on a passed ball.
With one out, Berghammer came to the plate
and legged out an ineld hit with Fassinger
scoring on the play.
M-A (4-2, 14-5) tied the score in similar
fashion in the bottom of the inning. Erik

freshmen team

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Fresh off an appearance in the Central Coast
Section Division I championship game, the
Menlo-Atherton football team is taking a huge
step into cementing themselves as an elite pro-
gram.
Menlo-Atherton announced Friday the addi-
tion of an all freshmen football team to comple-
ment the junior varsity and varsity squads
already in place.
Were expanding horizons over here, said
M-A head coach Sione Taufoou, the reigning
CCS Coach of the Year. Were excited about
offering our incoming freshman the opportunity
to play high school football against players of
similar size and background.
M-A has a student enrollment of 2,125,
according to the Western Association of Schools
and Colleges. Such a number allows the Bears
the luxury of adding another team, which in the
long run, could catapult them into one of the
premiere football programs in the county.
We expect many will have never played
before, so we have specially designed a fresh-
man program which will offer them better

SAN FRANCISCO Matt Cain thought about it all right, well aware he had
yet to allow a baserunner as he piled up outs. The Giants ace has never thrown a
no-hitter at any level, so he pondered that this might just be his day to do it
and with all the hype of the home opener, no less.
He nearly pulled it off, until the opposing pitcher spoiled a most impressive
bid. James McDonald became the lone baserunner of the afternoon for
Pittsburgh.
Cain tossed a one-hitter, allowing only a two-out single in the sixth inning to
McDonald during a near-perfect performance Friday as the San Francisco Giants

Sharks should expect changes
ST. LOUIS The St. Louis Blues
need to regain their home ice aura, and
fast.
Coach Ken Hitchcock will do his best
to make it happen for Game 2 of their
rst-round playoff series against the San
Jose Sharks.
The Blues had the NHLs best home
record in the regular season, but after
their 3-2 loss in double overtime
Thursday night theyve dropped three in
a row. Hitchcock promises changes,
although not in goal, where hell stick
with Jaroslav Halak over Brian Elliott.
Its our turn to make adjustments,
Hitchcock said after about half the team
and none of the main cogs except for
Elliott, coming off an unspecied upper
body injury skated for about 45 min-
utes. Anytime you lose, you dont want
to stand and live on the just-abouts.
Hitchcock could sit defenseman Kent
Huskins, who had several shaky
moments, in favor of Carlo Colaiacovo.
He could go with Matt DAgostini or
B.J. Crombeen at forward over Chris
Stewart, who has been unproductive.
Hitchcock refused to divulge any
changes.
Were not living on the fact that we
played well and lost, Hitchcock said.
We want more.
Defenseman Kevin Shattenkirk
played more than 33 minutes and took
11 shots, six more than any player on
either team. But he also accepted blame
for the winning goal by Martin Havlat
after he failed to clear the puck out of
the St. Louis zone.
I have my stick on it and its a play
thats got to be made, Shattenkirk said.
Thats what these games boil down to,
plays like this. Its kind of my rst real-
ity check, I guess, and rst real taste of
playoffs and how one mistake can really
come back and bite you.
Elliott was healthy enough to be the
backup in Game 1 and led the NHL with
a 1.56 goals-against average and nine
shutouts. Hitchcock is committed for
now to Halak, who was brilliant in the
2010 playoffs with the Canadiens and
perhaps has a higher upside.
The Sharks couldnt have asked for
much more from Antti Niemi, who made
14 of his 40 saves in the rst overtime.
Niemi won a Stanley Cup with the
Chicago Blackhawks in 2010.
They had some point-blank shots and
he made some great saves, captain Joe
Thornton said. Hes a fantastic goal-
tender and he made some great saves.
Havlat stepped up, too. He swatted a
rolling puck past Halak for the winner
early in the second overtime, his second
goal of the game. That more than made
up for his tripping penalty on Halak in
the third period, which led to Patrik
Berglunds go-ahead power-play goal.
But the Sharks werent satisfied,
either.
We know that theyll be better, we
know theyll change some things, theyll
adjust in certain areas, and we have to do
the same, coach Todd McLellan said.
Winning one and losing two gets you
nothing, I think.
Hitchcock said before the playoffs
that one loss isnt a big deal, home or
road, and players seemed aboard.
The outsiders are always trying to
nd a story line or reason or excuse,
captain David Backes said. Weve got a
great group of guys in there and a lot of
character. Well climb that mountain that
we have to climb.
The Blues took their rst lead in the
third period on Berglunds second goal,
and Hitchcock thought the team was at
its best in the rst overtime. He said the
Sharks last two goals were both blown
coverages.
We didnt make them earn it,
Hitchcock said. We didnt close on
people fast enough, we didnt pick up
the right people. We might have gotten
away with them before; were not get-
ting away with them now.
Unlike the Blues, who coasted into the
playoffs, the Sharks have won eight of
10. Though theyre the No. 7 seed in the
Western Conference, they can lean on
the experience of back-to-back appear-
ances in the conference nals. St. Louis
hasnt won a playoff game since 2004
and hasnt won a playoff series since
2002.
The Sharks appear to have forgotten
that the Blues swept the season series,
outscoring them 11-3 in four games.
And that they had to claw their way into
the postseason.
It doesnt matter how you get in the
playoffs, once you get in anybody can
beat anybody, Havlat said. Were con-
dent.
Arkansas puts
Petrinos lover
put on leave
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. Arkansas put the former mistress
of Bobby Petrino on paid leave Friday and disclosed that she
used a $20,000 gift from the disgraced former coach to buy a
car in her rst week on the job.
University spokesman Steve Voorhies said Jessica Dorrell, a
25-year-old football department employee, had been placed on
leave but declined further comment, calling it a private person-
nel issue.
Dorrell, a former Arkansas volleyball
player, was a Razorback Foundation
fundraiser before she was hired as a student-
athlete development coordinator by Petrino
on March 28 at an annual salary of $55,735.
She has not returned repeated calls seeking
comment.
The move came as Petrino said he would
not appeal his ring and seek any of the $18
million buyout that was part of his contract.
His agent, Russ Campbell, sent an email to athletic director Jeff
Long late Thursday saying Petrino had accepted responsibili-
ty for the events that led to the universitys decision to terminate
his contract.
Coach Petrino and his family wish nothing but the best for
both the Razorback football program and University of
Arkansas, Campbell wrote.
Petrino had the option to appeal as part of the seven-year con-
tract he agreed to in December 2010. The contract was for more
than $3.5 million annually and carried the $18 million mutual
buyout clause in 2011 and 2012. The amount dropped over the
life of the contract, falling to as little as $3.9 million in 2017.

College of San Mateo thrower Nikki Uikili took advantage
of competing with an Olympic champion to produce the No. 3
womens discus throw by a California Community College ath-
lete this season at CSMs Lucky 13 Invitational on Friday.
Reigning Olympic champion Stephanie Brown Trafton threw
202 feet, eight inches to win the competition, which featured
four throwers in the current USA top 20.
Uikili, the only community college athlete to make the
nals, threw 144-3, adding nearly four feet to her previous best
of 140-6. She placed sixth overall.
Finishing behind Trafton were Jere Summers (186-6),
Summer Pierson (186-5) and Kelechi Anyanwu (182-3) all
marks which rank among the USAs top 16 performers this sea-
son.
Uikili was a triple winner. The versatile sophomore out of
Mills High won the shot put at 40-6 and the javelin throw at
103-8. She already ranks No. 2 in the state in the javelin this
season (133-11) and No. 3 in the shot put (42-7 1/2). Her
javelin mark is No. 5 in the nation among two-year college
throwers.
I love this place, Brown Trafton said after the competition.
This is a great place to throw regardless of the wind condi-
tions. I cant think of any other community college facility
where you can have one of the best throws in the world.
She achieved her personal best of 217-2 at CSM in 2009 dur-
ing USA Track and Fields Pacic Association Championships,
which are held annually on Memorial Day weekend at College
Heights stadium. She announced plans to return for the 2012
event on May 27, which will also be an ofcial USATF nation-
al pre-Olympic development meet.
CSM dominated the mens throws as well on Friday. State
shot put leader Evan McDaniel won that event at 53-5, ahead
of teammates Josh Uikili (50-11) and Sione Fanaika (49-5).
They already rank 1-3-7 in the state.
Zeke Edward won the mens javelin throw (164-6) ahead of
teammate Anthony Capitulo (152-8). CSM took four of the top
ve places in both the shot put and javelin throw.
Other top CSM performances included: Alejandra Marin in
the womens 1,500 meters (5:15.87) and was third in the 800
meters (2:42.86).
For the men, Roman Skovronski (who ranks fourth in the
state) won the 400 meter hurdles in 54.91 seconds and
anchored CSMs winning 4x100 meter relay (42.45). Also on
that team were Keith Richardson, Damian Ross, and Aaron
Criswell.
Richardson was second in the 200 meters (22.65) and fourth
in the 100 (11.11), bucking headwinds in both races.
Leander Johnson won the high jump (5-8) and was second in
the long jump (20-2 1/4).
Hamza Farhki was second in the 1,500 meters (4:27.40) and
in the 5,000 (16:40.89). Delvonte Johnson was third in the 400
meters (50.87).

beat the Pirates 5-0 in their home opener.
Cain knew something else as he rolled
along: McDonald is a capable hitter, even if
his numbers say otherwise.
I was denitely aware of it but Im think-
ing there, Im behind in the count 2-1 but Im
throwing something to the outer third of the
plate, Cain said. He put a good swing on it.
He did his job. He can hit. I knew that going
into it that he can swing the bat well.
Cain struck out 11 and produced just the
gem the Giants needed as they returned from
a rough road trip for a homestand that also
includes three games with the Phillies.
Pitching 11 days after signing a new $127.5
million, six-year contract a record for a
right-hander Cain worked ahead all after-
noon and faced only one three-ball count
while retiring the rst 17 batters in order.
Cain nished an impressive 106-pitch out-
ing in all of 2 hours, 10 minutes.
McDonald, a career .069 hitter coming into
the game, hit a sharp single to left eld. He
felt a little strange being the one to break up
the perfecto.
You think about, its like, Man, the pitch-
er stood in his way for a perfect game,
McDonald said.
Fans in the sellout crowd of 41,138 jumped
to their feet to give Cain a warm ovation when
McDonald reached base.
Cain (1-0) pitched his third career one-hit-
ter, his fth shutout and his 14th complete
game.
It took a couple innings. I was just kind of
getting back into the rhythm of pitching in the
wind and the weather, Cain said. It denite-
ly pumps you up when you get the home
opener and the fans are coming out.
Aubrey Huff homered and Buster Posey hit
an RBI double in his rst regular-season game
at AT&T since a season-ending collision at
the plate with the Marlins Scott Cousins last
May 25.
The Giants celebrated their 1962 World
Series team and a large cast of Hall of Famers
with an impressive day with blue skies and
sun to boot after a huge rain and thunderstorm
overnight and into Friday morning threatened
to mess with the festivities.
Cain, who has long been the teams hard-
luck loser because of a lack of run support,
went the distance when San Francisco closer
Brian Wilson wasnt available after he worked
a 32-pitch ninth inning a day earlier in a 4-2
win at Colorado.
What a day by Matt, manager Bruce
Bochy said. Weve all seen him locked in
like this. He was as good as hes been.
McDonald produced his seventh career hit
but Pittsburgh dropped its fourth straight
game after being swept at Dodger Stadium.
McDonald (0-1) allowed three runs on six
hits in 5 2-3 innings, struck out one and
walked three.
Huff hit a two-run homer in the eighth. Nate
Schierholtz had a pair of singles and drove in
a run in the sixth for the Giants, who came
home from a 2-4 road trip in which they were
swept in three one-run losses at defending
division champion Arizona before taking two
of three from the Rockies at Coors Field.
Posey wound up 1 for 3 with the double and
a walk in his long-awaited home debut in
front of the fans who have supported him
every step of the way in his long journey back
from three torn ligaments in his left ankle and
a broken bone in his lower leg.
Tyler Stow, the 13-year-old son of beaten
Giants fan Bryan Stow, threw out the ceremo-
nial rst pitch in place of his dad under the
coaching of Giants reliever Jeremy Affeldt.
Bryan Stow, sitting in a wheelchair accompa-

the main center-eld scoreboard as if handing
the ball to his son while wishing the boy good
luck.
It was very heartfelt to see him out there,
Cain said.

Beaten Giants fan, son move crowd
By Antonio Gonzalez
SAN FRANCISCO Bryan Stow needed
only three words to move an entire ballpark at
the San Francisco Giants home opener.
Nearly beaten to death
in an attack outside
Dodger Stadium last year,
Stows surprise appear-
ance live on the center-
field videoboard before
Fridays 5-0 win against
the Pittsburgh Pirates in
the home opener might
have been emotional
enough. Instead, he also
stirred fans and players
with a touching family moment.
As the entire Giants team stood atop the
mound for the ceremonial rst pitch, Stow, sit-
ting in a wheelchair and wearing a San
Francisco shirt, suddenly appeared on the
screen with his mother, Ann. Then he strug-
gled to get out a few words short words to his
13-year-old son, Tyler, who was standing on
the mound at AT&T Park next to Giants
reliever Jeremy Affeldt.
Good luck, son, Stow said.
Tyler tossed the pitch a little high and out-
side but it didnt bounce, and it didnt real-
ly matter where it landed. The improvements
from his father were enough, coming nearly a
year after the attack in Los Angeles that left
Stow in a coma.
For me to stand with his son and to be able
to see that Bryan is speaking a lot better than
the last time I saw him, he moved his hand, he
handed the ball on the screen and to see his
son throw the way he did is pretty awesome,
said Affeldt, who has visited Stow and his
family several times. It was a good tribute to
his family and to the fans in general, too,
because theyve been through this whole loss
with him.
Stow, a Giants fan and father of two young
children, spent months in a medically induced
coma after being punched in the head, kicked
and slammed to the ground outside Dodger
Stadium last March. Louie Sanchez and
Marvin Norwood are charged in the beating.
Both have pleaded not guilty.
Stows family has said the 43-year-old for-
mer paramedic from Santa Cruz is undergoing
aggressive therapy to help him become more
independent. He now shares an apartment
with two other patients, and they have full-
time assistance.
His mother thanked fans for their support
before Stow spoke on the video screen. She
also said the family hopes to bring Stow to a
Giants game at some point this season.
We had hoped that Bryan would be here
today with you, but he is working on his
rehab, she said.
The Dodgers-Giants rivalry is one of base-
balls oldest and ercest, dating back decades
to when the teams were in New York. Stows
attack turned into a rallying cry for fan safety
with both teams coming out against vio-
lence at games and spawned an outpouring
of support.
Giants third base coach and musician Tim
Flannery who caught Tylers ball has
held two benet concerts. Home run king
Barry Bonds also has contributed to a college
fund for Stows children, and Giants ace Tim
Lincecum gave $25,000 to the Bryan Stow
Fund to help with medical bills and other
expenses last year.
The Giants also raised approximately
$70,000 for the Stow fund last year, partner-
ing with his employer, American Medical
Response, to gather donations at AT&T Park
before the start of a series with the Dodgers in
April. The total included a $10,000 donation
from the team.
Our dream was to have Bryan drop the ball
into Busters mitt, Giants President and CEO
Larry Baer said, referring to catcher Buster
Posey. What we clearly did not want to do
was disrupt his treatment or disrupt his
progress by doing something that was going
to be invasive to move him here. ... What we
wanted to do was nd a way for him to say
thank you. It was a two-way feeling that fans
wanted to say, We love you, Bryan, and keep
ghting the ght, and he and the family want-
ed to say thank you to everybody. How could
we do that? The clear way to do that was to
have him on the screen.

A tentative deal for a new arena is falling

It just feels like they were coming up with
reasons of why not to do the deal, Johnson
said.
Commissioner David Stern stressed the deal
was always nonbinding, and he supported
the Maloofs decision to say they were no
longer comfortable with its terms.
I think its fair for the Maloofs to say they
dont want to do that, Stern said during a
news conference after two days of owners
meetings. If they had done it simpler, earlier
or more directly, it could have saved a lot of
angst and trouble.
The Kings nearly moved to Anaheim after
last season before agreeing to stay this season
while the city tried to put together a plan to
replace Power Balance Pavilion.
The two sides reached a tentative deal last
month to fund the estimated $391 million
arena that would open for the 2015-16 season
in the downtown Sacramento rail yards. The
Sacramento City Council already passed its
end of the deal, brokered by the league and
tentatively agreed to by the Kings.

opportunities for development and playing
time, Taufoou said.
Playing time being the key in this whole deal.
According to Taufoou, a freshman program is
the perfect way to develop, not only the foot-
ball skills, but the core values hes try to instill
since he took over a losing program two sea-
sons ago.
You gure on a JV team, you have 20 soph-
omores and about ve freshmen that get to
play, Taufoou said. This way, you maximize
the playing time, get them more reps. With only
one team, its hard to reward certain players.
A freshmen team was part of Taufoous
vision when he arrived on the M-A campus fol-
lowing a 2009-2010 season when the Bears
went 1-9 overall only a year after beating
Wilcox 39-33 and winning their second CCS
title in school history under the coaching of
Phillip Brown.
In Taufoous rst year wearing the big head-
set, the Bears made it to the rst round of the
CCS playoffs, securing a 3-3 PAL Bay mark.
The turnaround earned Taufoou the 2010
Peninsula Athletic League Bay Division Coach
of the Year award.
After the end of the season, Taufoou pressed
the M-A Football board to add a freshmen
team.
In order for me to take this program to the
top we need to build from the ground up, we
need a freshmen team, Taufoou said, accord-
ing to a M-A press release.
While the board began the task of bringing
on an additional 40-member squad at approxi-
mately $1000 per player, Taufoou and the
Bears continued to gain momentum on the
eld.
The 2011 season, under newly installed eld
lights, drew record crowds. The Bears
frosh/soph team went undefeated in league
play and the varsity eclipsed two playoff oppo-
nents to meet Serra in the CCS title game. They
lost 42-28, but not before giving the Padres a
run for their money.
Taufoou was rewarded for his efforts and
named 2011 CCS Coach of the Year. Taufoou is
hoping to ride this momentum forward.
I think football provides a valuable experi-
ence, Taufoou said. I think what were trying
to do at M-A is instill values and thats some-
thing we can do a better job of with a freshman
program. Its not just about developing football
skills.
Taufoou said the process is going well. His
staff has appointed Alex Hagan as the new head
coach of the freshman team. I think hes going
to do a great job. Im extremely excited about
what hes going to do.
Costs of the new team has motivated the
Menlo-Atherton Football Association to organ-
ize a fundraiser.
The M-A Football Bear Bash will take place
7 p.m. April 28 at the new Arrillaga facility
with Menlo Parks, The Members providing
entertainment.
We hope our entire community will come
out and support the M-A football team, said
Susan Mohr, football board president via press
release. Everyone can dance to live music and
enjoy great food by professional caterer, Renee
Moore, of our famous M-A Snack Shack.
Since 2001, Menlo-Atherton is 70-54 overall
and 40-29 playing in the PALs top division.
They won CCS titles in 2002 and 2008.

Brees: Vitt obvious choice
to take over Saints
NEW ORLEANS Drew Brees, the
unquestioned leader in the New Orleans
Saints locker room, calls Joe Vitt the obvi-
ous choice to take over as interim head coach
while Sean Payton spends the entire 2012 sea-
son serving a suspension for his role in the
clubs bounty system.
Vitt was suspended six games in the scandal
that remains under investigation by the NFL,
and the Saints have not yet announced how his
responsibilities will be divvied up during his
absence for the rst chunk of the regular sea-
son, but Brees hardly seems bothered by that.
Joe Vitt is one of the most respected coach-
es I have ever been around, Brees said in an
email to The Associated Press on Friday. His
ability to lead this team in an uncertain time
throughout this off season and for whatever
term we have him during the regular season is
undeniable in our locker room.
Vitt, 57, has worked in the NFL since 1979
and joined the Saints as part of Paytons very
rst staff in 2006. During the 2009-10 Super
Bowl championship season, Brees spoke
glowingly of Vitts leadership abilities, recall-
ing a speech during which Vitt said players
and coaches who win championships together
walk together forever in history, regardless of
where their individual careers may take them.
He is the obvious choice and the best

brought stability to the Saints nearly
three decades ago and now plans to
do the same for the Hornets in small-
market New Orleans.
The Saints owner agreed Friday to
purchase the Hornets from the NBA.
We expect this club to be one of
the most outstanding clubs in the
league, otherwise I dont want to get
involved, Benson said. This is just
a good thing and Im just glad to be
a part of it.
A person familiar with the deal
says the purchase price is $338 mil-
lion. The person spoke to The
Associated Press on condition of
anonymity because the financial
terms have not been announced.
The NBA has been trying to sell
the Hornets since buying the club
from founder George Shinn in
December 2010. While preparing the
team for sale the league negotiated a
new lease for the Hornets to remain
in the state-owned New Orleans
Arena through 2024.
The sale of the team to Benson has
to be approved by the NBAs Board
of Governors, which was meeting in
New York on Friday.
The city is one of the countrys
treasures and we really have found
the perfect owner, Commissioner
David Stern said. Our goal all
along has been to get the Hornets
bought by somebody whose commit-
ment to New Orleans would be unri-
valed.
The framework of ownership
negotiations were handled in a way
that a new Hornets owner would
have to accept the lease worked out
between the NBA and Gov. Bobby
Jindal. The lease agreement also
called for $50 million in improve-
ments to the basketball stadium,
which sits right across the street from
the Superdome.
Once the NBA approves the sale of
the team to Benson, the next step is
for the state Legislature to approve
the arena lease deal because of the
funding needed for stadium improve-
ments. But legislative leaders already
have publicly voiced support for the
proposed lease deal, which would
take effect in July.
The 84-year-old Benson, a New
Orleans-native, has owned the Saints
since 1985, when he stepped in to
block efforts by other prospective
investors to move the NFL franchise
to Jacksonville, Fla. Now Benson has
made another major investment to
stabilize the NBAs presence in the
Big Easy on the same day that the
Hornets were hosting the Utah Jazz,
the very team New Orleans lost to
relocation in 1979.
Benson helped bring the Saints
their rst playoff appearance in 1987
and nally a Super Bowl title in
2010. His ownership of the Hornets
means the two small-market fran-
chises both will be locally owned and
now can work as partners in their
efforts to attract corporate sponsor-
ships, and Hornets fans can at least
hope that will translate to a better
product on the hardwood.
Saints owner Benson buys NBAs Hornets
By John Marshall
Ryan Villopoto has turned the
most competitive Supercross season
in decades into the biggest runaway
ever.
Coming off a 2011 indoor-out-
door sweep and the rst $1 million
payday in motocross history,
Villopoto has again left the competi-
tion in a trail of dirt clods.
With eight victories in 13 races,
the 23-year-old from Poulsbo,
Wash., has wrapped up the 2012
Supercross title with four races left,
the earliest any rider has ever
clinched in the 39-year history of
the indoor version of motocross.
It is kind of cool, having a new
record like that, Villopoto said.
But theres four more races left and
four more wins out there to get.
Villopoto came back from a hor-
ric crash that shattered his right leg
in 2010 to win last years Supercross
title. He followed that by winning
the outdoor motocross title and
earned a cool $1 million at the
Monster Energy Cup in Las Vegas.
He got the 2012 season off to a
great start, winning at Angels
Stadium in Anaheim, Calif., for the
second straight year.
But Villopotos season nearly got
derailed after that.
At Chase Field in Phoenix, he
crashed on the rst lap of the main
and went to the back of the eld. A
week later at Dodger Stadium in
Los Angeles, he went off the track
following a red ag and again was
last.
Both times, though, Villopoto
fought his way back, nishing third
at Phoenix, fourth in Los Angeles.
He didnt win, but those two rally-
from-the-back races allowed him to
stay in the championship hunt.
Obviously, being able to get back
toward the front in those two races
allowed me to clinch (so early),
Villopoto said.
With Villopoto struggling early,
Supercross had one of its most com-
petitive starts ever, with four differ-
ent winners to open the season, the
first time thats happened in 35
years.
Then Villopoto raced away from
the eld.
After a third in Oakland, Calif.,
Villopoto reeled off three straight
wins at the second Anaheim race,
San Diego and Cowboys Stadium in
Texas. He won again in St. Louis
and, after a fth at Daytona for his
worst nish of the season, he peeled
off three more wins, securing the
title at Houston on March 31.
With his title, Villopoto became
the fth rider to win consecutive
Supercross championships and rst
since Ricky Carmichael in 2005 and
2006. He also clinched the title ear-
lier than anyone else, bumping
Jeremy McGrath, who did it with
three races left in 1996.
I had two kind of bad races in a
row, but after that I kind of got back
to where I was before, he said. I
got a couple more wins and some
seconds and thirds. Overall, the sea-
son has been pretty good and sta-
ble.

San Jose looks to shake it up in Big Apple
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
If youre a San Jose Earthquake
player, coach or fan, things could
not be going any better.
The Earthquakes (4-1-0, 12
points) are off to their best ve-
game start in their 15-season club
history. And on Saturday, they take
their historic start to the East Coast
to face the New York Red Bulls.
Game time is scheduled for 4 p.m.
at Red Bull Arena in Harrison, N.J.
After a shaky start to the Major
League Soccer season, the Red
Bulls are ring on all cylinders
well, at least offensively.
And that recent surge starts with
the play of Thierry Henry, the inter-
national superstar from France.
Henry leads the league in scoring
with seven goals. Hes second in
MLS with four assists. Henry is also
the reigning three-time MLS Player
of the Year.
But Henry isnt alone, teammate
Kenny Cooper is right on his heels
with six goals. As a team, the Red
Bulls are quite dangerous on the
attack. Theyve scored an MLS-high
14 goals.
Henry and Cooper have account-
ed for 13 of 14 New York goals on
the year.
We cant worry about them scor-
ing, Quakes head coach Frank
Yallop said via sjearthquakes.com.
Weve got to make sure that, as a
team, we defend correctly. We cant
be isolated, especially with those
two. They create their own space,
theyre very tricky in what they do
and very sly. So weve got to make
sure we know where theyre at all
the time.
The Quakes go into New York
more than just a little condent they
can accomplish that.
In ve games this season, San
Jose has allowed only two goals
and only one of those came in the
run of play. Only Sporting Kansas
City has allowed less (1).
And with that said, the addition of
Victor Bernardez cannot be over-
looked. While Jon Busch has been
his usual self (three shutouts, 14
saves) between the pipes, the leader-
ship and presence of Bernardez in
central defense has been invaluable.
So has the surprise emergence of
Justin Morrow, whos filled in
superbly for Jason Hernandez and
Ike Oparra, the two apparent front-
runners for that
central defender
role when the
season began.
In two roads
victories, the
Quakes have yet
to allow a goal.
But the story
line everyone is
looking toward
in San Joses
lone matchup with New York this
season is strictly offensive. And that
revolves around the play of one man
Chris Wondolowski.
While Wondolowski has emerged
as one of the leagues most danger-
ous strikers over the last two sea-
sons, No. 8 has done most of his
damage near years end.
In 2012, Wondo has taken that
year-end form in the seasons infant
stages.
Wondolowski is second in MLS
with six goals. He scored a pair in
last weeks 3-1 win against
Vancouver in a game in which the
Whitecaps came in having not sur-
rendered a goal the entire season.
Wondolowski has six of the
teams eight goals, including three
on the road.
A lot of that is Wondolowski and
his skill (see his rst goal against
Vancouver, where he showed great
strength and then even better
nesse, making keeper Joe Cannon
look silly), but some of that credit
has to go a more creative, more ef-
cient San Jose offense.
Steven Lenhart, although he was
hurt last week, has proven invalu-
able with his constant pestering and
pressure up top. And in his absence,
Alan Gordon stepped up and gured
in San Joses latest win with a beau-
tiful header for a goal.
Against New York, with both for-
wards out, the Earthquake depth up
front will be tested.
San Jose has to be encouraged by
the play of Tressor Moreno in last
weeks win. It was his assist, placed
almost if by hand onto Wondos
foot, that produced the third goal of
the game. Rafael Baca and Marvin
Chavez have played larger than their
physical statures suggest.
New York has the weaker of two
defenses. San Joses key to victory
will lie in their ability to defend the
likes of Henry and Cooper.
San Jose last won a regular-sea-
son match at New York on May 7,
2005 (1-0), going 0-4-0 since then,
including a 3-0 defeat last year on
April 16.
These teams also faced off at Red
Bull Arena in the 2010 MLS Cup
Playoffs with the Earthquakes
knocking off top-seeded New York,
3-1 with Wondolowskis 81st-
minute goal assuring the Quakes of
continuing their improbable post-
season run that year in advancing 3-
2 on aggregate to the Eastern
Conference Championship.

Failed launch is setback
for North Koreas new leader
PYONGYANG, North Korea North
Koreas much-touted satellite launch ended in
a nearly $1 billion failure, bringing humilia-
tion to the countrys new young leader and
condemnation from a host of nations. The
United Nations Security Council deplored the
launch but stopped short of imposing new
penalties in response.
The satellites disintegration Friday over
the Yellow Sea brought a rare public
acknowledgment of failure from Pyongyang,
which had hailed the launch as a show of
strength amid North Koreas persistent eco-
nomic hardship.
For the 20-something Kim Jong Un it was
to have been a highlight of the celebratory
events surrounding his ascension to top polit-
ical power. It was timed to coincide with the
countrys biggest holiday in decades, the
100th birthday of North Korean founder Kim
Il Sung, the young leaders grandfather.
U.N. to vote Saturday
on observers for Syria
UNITED NATIONS The U.N. Security
Council scheduled a vote Saturday on a reso-
lution authorizing the deployment of the rst
wave of U.N. military observers to monitor a
cease-re between the Syrian government
and opposition ghters which appears to be
largely holding.
The cease-re, which formally took effect
Thursday, is at the center of international
envoy Ko Annans six-point plan to end
more than a year of bloodshed that has killed
over 9,000 people, according to the United
Nations, and to launch inclusive Syrian-led
talks on the countrys political future.
Security Council members met behind
closed doors for several hours Friday to dis-
cuss rival drafts by the U.S. and its European
allies and by Russia, Syrias most important
council ally.
Iran, six powers may
make progress at nuclear talks
ISTANBUL After years of failure, Iran
and the six world powers may nally make
some progress on nuclear negotiations when
they meet again Saturday if each side shows
willingness to offer concessions the other
seeks.
But even if the two sides nd enough com-
mon ground, they may have a tougher time in
any potential second round. Thats when the
six powers will likely seek further commit-
ments from Tehran to reduce fears that it
could use its uranium enrichment program to
make the ssile core of nuclear missiles.
Around the world
By Ken Thomas
WASHINGTON Pressuring Mitt
Romney on taxes, President Barack Obamas
campaign re-released more than a decade of
tax records Friday, a political maneuver
designed to pressure the Republican presiden-
tial candidate to divulge tax records beyond
two years and to stop hiding details of his
huge personal wealth.
Obamas own tax return for last year
showed that he and his wife paid $162,074 in
federal taxes on $789,674 in adjusted gross
income, an effective tax rate of 20.5 percent.
Their income plunged from $1.7 million in
2010, with declining sales of the presidents
books. In 2009, the Obamas reported income
of $5.5 million, fueled by the best-selling
books.
Romneys campaign has projected he will
pay more than $6.2 million in taxes on $45 mil-
lion in income in 2010 and 2011 but has not
released tax information
prior to the past two years.
Romney is expected to pay
15.4 percent in federal
taxes for 2011 on income
mostly derived from invest-
ments, based on his tax esti-
mate for the year. Romney
on Friday asked for an
extension for the actual l-
ing of his 2011 return, as he
has in the past, and his
campaign said he would le and release that
return before the November election.
Obamas campaign re-released tax docu-
ments dating back to 2000 with the aim of
forcing Romney to release a similar trove. A
Romney spokeswoman shot back that Obama
was saddled with a terrible record on job cre-
ation and was trying to distract Americans
with a series of sideshows.
Obamas 20.5 percent tax rate for 2011 was
a bit lower than the average for a family in
their income range, but higher than the rate
paid by most Americans. The Obamas helped
lower their tax bill by making $172,130 in
charitable donations, which were the majority
of their itemized deductions.
Families making between $500,000 and $1
million will pay an average of 24.3 percent of
their income in federal taxes for 2011, accord-
ing to projections by the Tax Policy Center, a
nonpartisan Washington think tank. By com-
parison, families making between $50,000 and
$75,000 will pay an average of 12 percent,
while families making between $75,000 and
$100,000 will pay an average of 15.5 percent.
By contrast, the top rate for taxpayers with
high incomes derived from wages, not invest-
ments, is 35 percent.
Obama campaign manager Jim Messina
said Romneys deance of decades of prece-
dent set by presidential candidates on both
sides of the aisle, including his own father,
begs the question what does he have to
hide?
Obama pays $162,074 in taxes
By Julie Pace
CARTAGENA, Colombia A dozen
Secret Service agents with President Barack
Obama at an international summit have been
relieved of duty because of allegations of mis-
conduct.
The Associated Press received an anony-
mous tip that the misconduct involved prosti-
tutes in Cartagena, Colombia, the site of the
Summit of the Americas. A Secret Service
spokesman would neither conrm nor deny
the allegation.
A U.S. ofcial, who was not authorized to
speak publicly on the matter and requested
anonymity, put the number of agents at 12.
The agency was not releasing the number of
personnel involved.
The incident threatened to overshadow
Obamas economic and trade agenda at the
summit and embarrass the U.S. The White
House had no comment.
Secret Service spokesman Ed Donovan
would not confirm that prostitution was
involved, saying only that there had been
allegations of misconduct made against
Secret Service personnel in the Colombian
port city hosting Obama and more than 30
world leaders.
Donovan said the allegations of misconduct
were related to activity before the presidents
arrival Friday night. Obama was attending a
leaders dinner Friday night at Cartagenas
historic Spanish fortress. He was due to attend
summit meetings with regional leaders
Saturday and Sunday.
Those involved had been sent back to their
permanent place of duty and were being
replaced by other agency personnel, Donovan
said. The matter was turned over to the
agencys Office of Professional
Responsibility, which handles the agencys
internal affairs.
These personnel changes will not affect the
comprehensive security plan that has been
prepared in advance of the presidents trip,
Donovan said.
Misconduct alleged against Secret Service agents
By Charles Babington
ST. LOUIS The presidential campaign
briey veered from the emotional Mommy
Wars on Friday to the back-burner issue of
gun rights, with Mitt Romney telling the
National Rifle Association that President
Barack Obama is not protecting gun owners
even though the topic has rarely arisen dur-
ing his time in ofce.
Without offering details, Romney said that
Obama would like to erode gun owners
rights.
We need a president
who will enforce current
laws, not create new ones
that only serve to burden
lawful gun owners,
Romney told thousands of
NRA members in St.
Louis for their annual con-
vention. President
Obama has not. I will.
Obama has said rela-
tively little about rearms, deeply disappoint-
ing gun-control groups. Obama campaign
spokesman Ben LaBolt said the presidents
record makes clear the he supports and
respects the Second Amendment, and well
ght back against any attempts to mislead vot-
ers.
The gathering of gun enthusiasts comes as
Romney, the presumptive GOP nominee, is
trying to woo conservative groups to consoli-
date his base after fending off challengers on
his right. His relationship with gun owner
groups is uneasy.
Running for the Senate in 1994, Romney
said: I dont line up with the NRA. A decade
later he became a lifetime NRA member.
The NRA convention is a must-do for any
Republican candidate. But this week it inter-
rupted a new campaign narrative that Romney

E
arly on in a high school
career, students begin to
fully recognize and under-
stand the
importance of
time manage-
ment. We spend
the majority of
our high school
careers trying
to gure out
how to make
the most of our
time with the massive amounts of
school work we are given.
Some of us might never gure
out how to efciently manage our
time while, for others, by the time
they are ready for graduation, have
mastered the art of time manage-
ment.
Personally, it wasnt easy being
thrown into high school left to g-
ure out how to manage the sudden-
ly heavy workload. However, by
the time my junior year came
around, I felt ready and conditioned
to tackle these long-term projects,
AP English essays and APUSH out-
lines and complete them efciently
in a timely manner.
By the time my senior year came
around, I was no longer spending
all night to complete projects like I
had during my sophomore year. I
was condent that my senior work-
load (which is probably the hardest
workload Ive had in my four years
of high school) along with the
added pressure of college applica-
tions seemed like a challenge I was
ready to handle.
I wasnt. School work I could
handle, but throw 11 college appli-
cations into the equation and you
get one super overwhelmed teenag-
er.
For most students, college appli-
cations are something given careful
thought and consideration. Students
spend months, as I did, taking the
time to craft their application to
near perfection to make their appli-
cation stand out among hundreds of
thousands of other applicants.
As I said, most students like me
spent months working on these
applications and, within those
months, long hours were spent try-
ing to make ourselves appealing to
these admissions ofcers who
weve never met, yet are given the
job of ultimately deciding where
we could continue our education.

It was sad for me to learn that
Broadway By the Bay, like other
nonprofit community artistic
organizations, is having financial
difficulties due to no fault of its
own but the reeling economy and
needs to raise some $500,000 to
continue operating.
To me, the organization is a
Peninsula treasure. It still uses a
quote on one of its brochures from
one of my first reviews: Who
needs Broadway in New York
when we have Broadway by the
Bay? And, I still stick to that
opinion, as I have yet to review
any of its productions that hasnt
been up to that standard.
The current production of
Hairspray continues that tradi-
tion. A multiple Tony award win-
ner, its a hilarious recap of an era
of change in the city of Baltimore
in 1962.
Two themes run through the
musical, how a plus-size teenager,
by sheer drive and guts, makes it to
star on The Corny Collins Show
(Tim Reynolds), a teenage televi-
sion dance show, sponsored by a
hairspray company, much needed
in that beehive hair style period.
And, in the course of that, helps
break the racial barriers that keeps
minority talent from appearing
only once a month on Negro Day.
But that doesnt subdue the bub-
bly enthusiasm that keeps the audi-
ence toes tapping endlessly
through the show from rocking
tunes like Good morning,
Baltimore, I Can Hear the Bells,
Mama, Im a Big Girl, Now! and
more.
Super talented Vicki Morgan
drives the production as that plus-
size heroine Tracy Turnblad but
Cole Grissom as Edna Turnblad,
her supportive, voluptuous plus-
sized mother, is the big scene
stealer. Danny Cunningham is her
father Wilbur, a sort of goofy
owner of the Har-De-Har Hut joke

hit song Always Look on the Bright Side of

British trait of stoicism and the stiff upper
lip in the face of disaster and became
immensely popular. When the British destroy-
er HMS Shefeld was struck by an Exocet
cruise missile on May 4, 1982 in the
Falklands War, her crew sang it while waiting
to be rescued from their sinking ship. In 1997,
the song was recorded by Art Garfunkel and

Copeland has a denite agenda with his new

the time he purchased a gun and the day he
could legally pick it up. Deftly and sensitive-
ly sketching fellow sufferers, impacted family

friends, Copeland uses the dramatic frame of
those ten awful days in his own life to tell the
broader story of depressions debilitating
effects and sometimes deadly outcome.

PROVIDENCE, R.I. Two
Titanic survivors who later became
tennis pros are being honored at
Rhode Islands International Tennis
Hall of Fame and Museum. Nearby
on Cape Cod, a wreath will be laid
for a radio operator who relayed
Morse code messages as the ill-
fated ship went down. In Denver, a
musical piece composed for famed
passenger Molly Brown is getting
its premiere.
With remembrances and exhibits
planned from San Diego to
Singapore, places with few or little-
noted connections to the Titanic are
showing the power the tragedy
holds worldwide 100 years after the
vessel sank April 15, 1912, and took
more than 1,500 people to their
deaths.
In Newport, R.I., visitors can stop
by the tennis museums Tennis and
the Titanic exhibit as a tribute to
Hall of Famers Richard Norris
Williams II and Karl Howell Behr.
They met in their 20s aboard the
rescue vessel Carpathia and became
friends, with both tennis and
tragedy in common.
Williams, who grew up in
Switzerland, was headed with his
father to Massachusetts, where he
would attend Harvard. As the ship
went down, the two prepared to
jump in the water, but one of the
Titanics smokestacks toppled,
crushing Williams father.
The 21-year-old jumped in
nonetheless and found a lifeboat.
He climbed aboard that and
spent the next ve hours waist deep,
or occasionally deeper, in 28-degree
water, said Williams son, Quincy
Williams, now 80, who was on hand
for the exhibits opening Thursday
and participated in a public discus-
sion with members of Behrs family.
Behr, an already successful tennis
player who bought a ticket for the
Titanics maiden voyage in pursuit
of a woman, became a member of
the Carpathias survivor committee,
helping other passengers to safety.
He proved himself to the womans
disapproving parents and later mar-
ried her.
Williams and Behr faced each
other several times on the court,
most notably just two years after the
sinking, in the quarternals of the
U.S. National Championship, held
that year in Newport. (Williams
beat Behr in three sets.)
The most famous maritime disas-
ter in history occurring as the
Titanic steamed from Britain toward
New York is being highlighted in
other ways in places without direct
links to it.
Venues in Las Vegas, San Diego,
Houston and even Singapore are
hosting Titanic exhibitions that
include artifacts recovered from the
site of the sinking. Among them:
bottles of perfume, porcelain dishes,
even a 17-foot piece of hull.
The University of Denver is hold-
ing a Titanic concert featuring the
premiere of Lifeboat No. 6, in hom-
age to hometown resident Margaret
Molly Brown. The unsinkable
Brown, portrayed in Hollywood by
the likes of Debbie Reynolds and
Kathy Bates, was one of its most
famous passengers, organizing sur-
vivors and helping them once they
landed in New York.
Tourist traps are taking advantage
of the anniversary to draw crowds.
The Titanic museums in landlocked
Branson, Mo., and Pigeon Forge,
Tenn., plan events including a musi-
cal tribute and a ham radio broad-
cast.
In Chatham, Mass., the family of
Matt Tierney will commemorate his
role as one of the Marconi boys,
the wireless radio operators who
served as critical communication
links during and after the disaster.
Tierney was working the night
shift at a station on Nantucket on
April 14, 1912, when he heard a
faint distress signal CQD, used
before SOS that he relayed to
New York. For several days after the
sinking, he transmitted messages
containing information on who had
survived, and who had been lost.
Were extremely proud that he
was able to help in his way, said
Bill Upham, 64, Tierneys grand-
son, who recalls hearing his grand-
father tell stories about that night.
Upham and other family mem-
bers, including some of Tierneys
great- and great-great-grandchil-
dren, will lay a wreath at his grave
Saturday.
Tierneys story is told in a docu-
mentary featured at the Chatham
Marconi Maritime Center. The cen-
ter, in conjunction with the National
Park Service, is also gathering ham
radio operators to relay commemo-
rative messages to other wireless
operators around the world during
the anniversary weekend. The effort
began Thursday and will continue
around the clock until Sunday after-
noon.
Said Frank Messina, the centers
vice president: Were focusing on
the radio operator, and the fact that
they were really the heroes of the
day.

Louisville is home to plenty of origi-
nals that liven up a visit to Kentuckys
largest city, best known for a 2-minute
sporting event.
Its the iconic horse track that over-
shadows everything in town on the rst
Saturday in May. Thats when the
Kentucky Derby is run at Churchill
Downs where mint juleps flow,
women sport owery hats and sleek
thoroughbreds race for immortality.
Visitors dont have to be horse racing
buffs to enjoy the charms of this city
along the Ohio River.
Usually, the city is adorned in red,
pink and white blossoms as springtime
thoughts turn from following NCAA
basketball brackets to handicapping the
Derby. But this years unseasonably
warm weather resulted in a showy but
early bloom.
But the spring greenery is always daz-
zling in the Bluegrass state. While in
Louisville, visitors can stroll along
Waterfront Park the citys 85-acre
front yard. The expansive playground
near downtown offers panoramic views
of downtown and the Ohio River.
This time of year, Louisvillians get
so happy, said local restaurateur Lynn
Winter. Its like everyone comes out.
Not far from the park, several muse-
ums are clustered within four blocks in
the citys downtown, which features an
array of restaurants and shops. Among
the most popular destinations are the
Muhammad Ali Center and the
Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory.
The Ali Center showcases the boxing
career of the former world heavyweight
champion known as the Louisville
Lip, and highlights his social activism
and humanitarian causes out of the ring.
Ali, who turned 70 in January, grew up
in a West End neighborhood of
Louisville.
The center replays his most famous
bouts and features plenty of memorabil-
ia. Visitors can shadowbox, punch a
speed bag and lean into a heavy bag that
lets them feel the power of an Ali punch.
Other exhibits retrace Alis ght against
war, segregation and poverty.
A short walk away, visitors can see
workers crafting bats used by big lea-
guers. The Louisville Slugger Museum
& Factory is a treasure trove of memora-
bilia that features bats used by Babe
Ruth, Hank Aaron, Ted Williams and
other Hall of Famers.
Visitors can pick a bat, wood or alu-
minum, and take a crack in the batting
cages.
We have little kids and big kids
alike, said employee Tony Fowler.
The springtime pace in town can seem
as fast as on the track at Churchill
Downs.
The big horse race may only last two
minutes, but the pre-race celebration
lasts weeks during the Kentucky Derby
Festival.
Leading up to the Derby, the city cele-
brates with a giant reworks show, a
parade, a steamboat race and a balloon
race among the highlights of a festi-
val that also features athletic events,
music and food.
Attractions galore in Louisville at Derby time
Louisville is home to plenty of originals that liven up a visit to Kentuckys largest city,

events.
The 55th SFIFF opens with one of its
biggest events.
On Thursday, SFIFF kicks off with
Farewell, My Queen, at the Castro Theatre.
Directed by Benoit Jacquot, Farewell, My
Queen is described as sumptuous and inti-
mate in its portrayal of court life at Versailles
during four crucial days in July 1789
observed at close range by the social decay
that brought down the monarchy.
In this adaptation of Chantal Thomass
novel, a servant the queens reader and
sometime confidante, Sidonie Laborde
(played by La Seydoux) navigates the
quietly mounting atmosphere of confusion,
denial and panic among the royal family and
their cohort following news of the storming
of the Bastille.
For the quiet but not timid Sidonie, dogged
at all times by Jacquots camera, the palaces
seemingly endless hallways all lead to one
room the chamber of Marie Antoinette, to
whom she is devoted and by whom she is
mesmerized.
The 99-minute cinematic wonder is pro-
ceeded by the SFIFFs opening night party at
the Terra Gallery on Harrison Street.
Farewell, My Queen, is just the begin-
ning though. What follows is a slew of
engaging full-features, documentaries and
shorts to satisfy any cinematic taste.
Smack in the middle of the festival is its
Centerpiece night featuring Your Sisters
Sister, a film written and directed by Lynn
Shelton featuring the acting chops of Emily
Blunt.
Still grief-stricken a year after his broth-
ers death, Jack (played by Mark Duplass)
travels to a remote cabin on Puget Sound at
the suggestion of his best friend, Iris
(Blunt), who thinks that hell benefit from
the isolation.
He arrives to find Iris sister, Hannah
(played by Rosemarie DeWitt), recovering
from a bad breakup, and they quickly bond
over their shared misery. When Iris turns up
to surprise Jack, she notes a new connection
between him and her sister. What begins as a
happy reunion soon deteriorates into a frac-
tious encounter, the trio caroming off one
another amid misunderstandings, betrayals
and secret affections. Improvising much of
the dialogue, the three actors are terrific,
imbuing their complex, sometimes madden-
ing characters with genuine heart.
The 90-minute feature is followed by an
after party at the Clift on Geary Street.
The two-week festival closes with an
inspiring documentary directed by
Ramona S. Diaz, Dont Stop Believin:
Every Mans Journey which follows the
rags to riches story of Journeys current
lead singer, Arnel Pineda.
Other cant-miss events during the SFIFF
include The State of Cinema Address on
April 21. Each year, the SFIFF invites a
leader in the world of cinema to address the
issues facing the film world today. This year,
New York Times best-selling novelist, essay-
ist and short story writer Jonathan Lethem
investigates the ecstasies of influence con-
stituting the cinematic experience.
Lethem will explore the ways cultural
movements such as Occupy Wall Street, new
media revolutions and grassroots art move-
ments can, in their various ways, unearth
utopian possibilities for reciprocal transfor-
mations in film culture.
Tickets for the San Francisco International
Film Festival can be purchased the day of the
film at the corresponding box office. For

school New York University. Ive known
that I wanted to attend NYU since I was 8
years old and I took every opportunity
since then to visit the school.
After dedicating four months to complet-
ing my NYU application to perfection, I
looked back and felt confident I was a
strong and competitive enough applicant.
I pictured myself at NYU and only at
NYU for months imagining what it would
be like walking down the street in
Greenwich Village with New York Citys
skyscrapers surrounding me.
It was exciting to picture myself there
knowing that in a few short months I could
be moving to New York City and be a part
of NYUs graduating class of 2016.
I didnt get accepted. After dedicating
seven months to doing everything I could
to get into that school, I was denied
acceptance via an email that conveyed
that there were more qualified applicants
than NYU could accept.
Knowing I put so much effort and dedi-
cated so much time to my application, it
hurts to have been rejected from my top
school and, although Im not completely
over the rejection, I must now put all of my
energy into trying to figure out which
school I will actually attend before the May
1 deadline.
Now that I have my school choices nar-
rowed down to two, I must choose between
living in a city versus living in a suburb,
going to a school spread out within the city
versus attending a school that has a central
campus, and compare financial aid pack-
ages.
So I didnt get into my first choice, but I
did get into schools that were a close sec-
ond. I dedicated equally as much time to
those applications as I did to my NYU
application and all of that hard work paid
off.

dreams.
Tracy gets big dancing help from Seaweed
(Lamont Jones, an African American dancer
whose mother is the irrepressible
Motormouth Maybelle (Erica Richardson),
the owner of a hip downtown record shop
and the host of Negro Day. The plot
becomes complicated when he becomes
involved in a biracial romance with Tracys
best friend Penny Pingleton (Chloe
Condon).
Tracy is smitten with Link Larkin
(Michael Scott Wells), a classmate and the
featured singer on the show, and a romance
blooms. And, of course, there needs to be
villains in the proceedings in the form of the
beautiful, jealous but talentless princess of
the show, Amber Von Tussle (Courtney
Hatcher) and her scheming mother Velma
(Lisa-Marie Newton).
Dancing and musical accompaniment is
by rock-solid Peninsula talent Robyn
Tribuzi doing the choreography and Rick
Reynolds directing the orchestra.
Yah! I know, the plot is corny, but its the
skeleton upon which to hang two hours of
hilarity and the rocking music from the 60s.

District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe called
the sentence a reasonable end under
realignment guidelines.
Last August, Belmont police arrested
Castellanos and Jenna Montani, of San
Mateo, for a burglary spree spanning nearly
18 months and uncovered dozens of stolen
items taken mostly from parked cars. The
goods included cellphones, gift cards, per-
sonal electronics, purses, wallets, backpacks
and checkbooks. Police also reported finding
flashlights and gloves.
The couple also reportedly stole three cars
before they were caught by police who
linked them to a stolen checkbook left in a
San Mateo motel room. Castellanos commit-
ted 50 to 100 thefts a night and said he only
stole from unlocked vehicles, according to
the District Attorneys Office.
The previous May, Castellanos was also
arrested with Danielle Renee Gonzalez
Lateur, 19, of Pacifica, after leading
Belmont police on a chase that ended in an
accident in San Carlos. Lateur, the driver,
fled after a police officer responded to a
report of a burglary in process and crashed
into a tree and house before coming to a
stop.
In March 2010, Belmont police arrested
Castellanos for similar crimes. Police said
Castellanos would target mostly unlocked
cars and moved quickly from one neighbor-
hood to another, mostly in areas west of El
Camino Real.
After the May arrest, police also uncov-
ered more than 100 stolen items linked to
four victims in Belmont and six victims from
other cities including San Mateo,
Hillsborough and Redwood City and proper-
ty from a Novato theft.

By Jake Coyle
If a futuristic space prison with 500 of the
worlds most violent and dangerous criminals
cryogenically frozen was to somehow under-
go an inmate revolt, who would emerge as the
unquestioned leader of such an intergalactic
gang of gruesome murders?
Why the Scots, of course.
At least thats according to the sci- circa
2079 action ick Lockout, directed by a pair
of Irish filmmakers: James Mather and
Stephen St. Leger. They co-wrote it with pro-
ducer Luc Besson, the prodigious if seldom
procient French action lmmaker.
The MS One is a hulking, orbiting jail that
puts its prisoners in stasis, or a deep sleep.
(And you thought incarceration costs are high
now?) But while the presidents daughter,
Emilie (Maggie Grace), visits MS One to
question its methods, a prisoner easily gets
loose and soon the ship is overrun by crimi-
nals who immediately fall in line behind the
Scottish Alex (Vincent Regan) and his more
psychotic sibling Hydell (Joe Gilgun).
Two secret service men take charge of the
hostage rescue the hawkish Langral
(played by the always interesting Peter
Stormare, whose odd Swedish rhythms made
him a Coen brothers favorite) and the more
measured Shaw (Lennie James).
Obviously, such awkward circumstances
can only be resolved by a solo, heroic mission
from a reluctant, irascible protagonist. Ours is
Snow (Guy Pearce), an agent who has been
unjustly deemed a criminal after a mission
gone wrong, but is given the chance to win his
freedom by saving the presidents daughter.
Hes seemingly the last person left in a
grim, briey glimpsed industrialized world
(the Oval Ofce has been lowered into a
bunker) who still smokes and carries a Zippo.
Clad in a T-shirt that reads Warning:
Offensive, he speaks almost entirely in sar-
castic one-liners. We rst see him taking a
brutal interrogation beating and explaining his
whereabouts to Langral as busy trampolining
your wife.
Though few of these lines land, Snows
relentless tongue-in-cheek patter has a mount-
ing effect, like an annoying TV ad campaign.
This is a brawnier Pearce (L.A.
Confidential, Mildred Pierce) and if
Lockout is meant as an action hero audi-
tion, he certainly has the needed charisma.
Hes the only reason to see Lockout,
along with Grace, who has an easy chemistry
with Pearce. They spend much of the lm
bantering competitively while navigating the
corridors of the MS One, a labyrinth of Star
Wars-like hallways. (Just what is our fasci-
nation with horizontally closing blast doors
that makes us so certain this is the future of
doorways?)
The cheap visual effects are so bad that
youll be wondering if you misplaced your
3-D glasses. But, no, the digital back-
grounds of some scenes really are that
undefined, the kind of work video game
makers would scoff at.
Such deciencies could and perhaps should
be overlooked when it comes to B-movies,
whose electricity are ideally fueled from raw
immediacy rather than deep budgets. But in
the case of Lockout, the cheapness only
reinforces the overall slipshoddiness and lack
of inventiveness.
Its of a piece with the rest of Lockout:
cavalierly conceived, generically titled and
derivatively plotted. It feels like a missed
chance because Pearce and Grace came ready
to play.
Lockout, a Film District release, is rated
PG-13 for intense sequences of violence and
action, and language, including some sexual
references. Running time: 95 minutes. Two
stars out of four.
One-liners, slapdash sci-fi in Lockout
In Lockout,the cheapness only reinforces the overall slipshoddiness and lack of inventiveness.
By Nicole Evatt
NEW YORK Most action stars long to
show their dramatic chops with weightier
roles. But Guy Pearce
was looking to do just
the opposite.
The critically
acclaimed dramatic
actor of The Kings
Speech, L.A.
Confidential and
Mildred Pierce happi-
ly took a walk on the
lighter side with his lat-
est lm, the sci- action thriller Lockout
that comes out Friday.
I think the thing I enjoyed about this one
was that the character doesnt take himself
too seriously and the lm doesnt take itself
too seriously, said the English-born
Australian actor in an interview Monday.
In the lm, Pearce plays a surly Secret
Service agent who must break into a maxi-
mum security prison in outer space to res-
cue the Presidents daughter (Maggie
Grace) from a group of demented criminals
who have taken control of the orbiting jail
house.
To look more like a bona de action hero,
co-directors James Mather and Stephen St.
Leger asked the typically lean actor to bulk
up.
Pearce rose to the challenge, taking up a
strenuous workout regime that included
weight training ve days a week. Mentally,
he said he approached the character with
the same seriousness he devotes to all his
roles.
I have to nd the reality of the character,
the honesty of the character, you know
every dimension that I possibly can nd of
the character and treat it with the same cre-
dence that I would Andy Warhol or Edward
VIII, said Pearce.
Pearce packs a punch
in futuristic Lockout

been damaged by the death through the loss of
their mothers love and comfort.
The Parineh childrens attorneys said they
do not comment on pending litigation.
Parineh, 66, is set to stand trial Oct. 1 and
potentially faces the death penalty or life in
prison without parole if convicted of rst-
degree murder and the special allegation of
murder for nancial gain. He has pleaded not
guilty and a decision on the death penalty has
yet to be made, said District Attorney Steve
Wagstaffe.
Parima Parineh, 56, was shot twice in the
head in the bedroom of the couples multi-mil-
lion dollar home on Fox Hill Road in
Woodside. At a preliminary hearing last fall,
the prosecution argued Parineh stood to bene-
t from a $31 million life insurance policy
and, outside court, said he also had a longtime
mistress.
Parineh allegedly gave authorities differing
stories; once, he said he found his wife dead
and another time, that he found her wounded
and finished the job at her request.
Criminalists said none of the four shots could
have been self-inicted. The gun was the only
weapon of Parinehs not conscated earlier by
law enforcement after his wife allegedly tried
to commit suicide.
At the time of his wifes death, Parineh was
$13 million to $14 million in debt and his life
of foreclosures included the Fox Hill home
and several properties scattered throughout the
state, including Byron, Hayward, Sunnyvale
and Dixon. His wife had a number of life
insurance policies totaling $31 million but
they had a lien against them and were about to
end without payment.
Authorities arrested Parineh June 17, 2010
in Sunnyvale and he has been held since with-
out bail.
Shortly after Parinehs arrest, the District
Attorneys Ofce said the children were not
being cooperative with the investigation but
later said they provided statements. According
to the civil suit, the children believe Parineh
shot their mother, that she survived the attack
for some period of time before dying as a
result and that his purpose was to benet
nancially from certain life insurance pay-
outs.
Parima Parineh was raised in Tehran, Iran
and moved to the United States when she was
22. She was an artist working in multiple
media.

by Sue Bullis, who was recently able to watch
Ortiz graduate.
Im really thankful, he said.
Now Ortiz is looking for work and one day
dreams of having his own Italian restaurant.
Whats unique is so much of the communi-
ty was involved in making Anthonys dream
come true, said Tony Garcia, director of mar-
keting at The International Culinary Center.
Garcia added the scholarship is the rst of
its kind for the California campus, which
opened just more than a year ago. The school
has similar programs set up in New York,
where it has been open for 30 years.
Administered by the Friends of the French
Culinary Institute, donations to the school
with a note about William J. Bullis are put
toward the fund, Garcia explained. The school
recently opened up applications to nd the
second scholarship recipient. Money is being
collected for the effort until July 18. If the
effort is short, the school will cover the addi-
tional funds. If more is raised, the school will
consider offering a scholarship to a second
student, said Garcia. Once awarded, the schol-
arship will help a student who starts classes in
Aug. 8.
Sue Bullis has done an extraordinary thing
by taking her grief, which is huge, and turning
it into a very positive remembrance of her
son, said U.S. Rep. Jackie Speier, D-San
Mateo.
Speier, who recently attended a benet for
the scholarship fund, had the chance to meet
Ortiz.
Im sure [Sue Bullis] sees Will moving
through these young culinary talents, she
said.
Locally, Bullis was also remembered at his
school. During the 2011 Arbor Day celebra-
tion, Mills High School recognized Bullis
with a plaque and tree near the culinary
department.
Those wishing to support the William Bullis
Scholarship can send a check made out to
Friends of the FCI. Please note the William
Bullis Scholarship in the memo section.
Checks can be mailed to Director of Student
Services Rhonda Lynn at the International
Culinary Center, 700 W. Hamilton Ave.,
Campbell, CA 95008.

were victorious in their individual pack races,
and the outlaw class, which is open to every-
one else. Lastly, theres a design contest,
which looks at the decor of the vehicles. To
participate, racers had to register their cars
Tuesday evening in Foster City. Aguirres
favorite car looks like an ice cream sandwich,
he said.
More than 100 racers are expected to partic-
ipate. Those who didnt have a chance to enter
a car wont be completely out of luck. A sus-
pended track with Lego cars will be on hand
for those walking by to use.
Given the public space, the local scout lead-
ers are also excited to reintroduce the public to
the organization and the programs offered
locally.
District Chair Tom Mullins explained the
Boy Scouts offers youth character develop-
ment and values-based leadership training
which are always needed, he added.
Its actually pretty simple. People have
heard about these programs but havent heard
from [the scouts] in a while, he said.
On Saturday, people will have a chance to
learn about the local programs like Cub
Scouts, which works with boys ages 6 to 10;
Boy Scouts, which works with children ages
11 to 18; and Venturing, which is a co-ed
group for teens ages 14 to 20.
We have a little bit of everything, Mullins
said.
Both Aguirre and Mullins agreed the derby
is one of the most anticipated annual events.
And while the youngsters have fun, its also a
big draw for the dads.
The Cub Scouts: Pinewood Derby will be
held from noon to 3 p.m. Saturday, April 14 in
the center court in front of Macys at the
Hillsdale Shopping Center, 60 31st Ave., San
Mateo. For more information on Pacific
Skyline Council, Boy Scouts of America, visit
www.pacsky.org. Those interested in partner-
ing with local scouts on community service
projects can contact Aguirre at

RACE
SATURDAY, APRIL 14, 2012
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- When making some
big plans, if you inconvenience another without his
or her knowledge, you will have a lot of unpleasant
explaining to do.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Using excessive fattery
to win someone to your side could backfre. You may
think that praising the person will do the trick, but he
or she will only feel manipulated.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You could be extremely
wasteful with your money when trying to impress an-
other, and sadly it isnt likely to work. The party in ques-
tion isnt interested in showmanship, just friendship.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- When participating in
a social activity that has some competitive elements,
dont allow winning to become unduly important. Itll
only make you look bad.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Be sure to look at your
problems realistically and not through an optimistic
lens. If you try to kid yourself, you could do more
harm than good in the long run.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Business and pleasure
arent likely to make a congenial mix, especially
if you try to make a pitch to someone who is only
interested in having a good time.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- In order for any partner-
ship to be successful, both parties must possess a
strong sense of purpose. Dealing with a split decision
is only likely to spell failure.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Being a bit gullible at
present, there is a strong possibility that you could
believe everything you hear. Dont allow someones
exaggerations to cause you to feel inferior.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Lady Luck is likely
to treat you in a fckle manner, so it isnt very smart
to depend on her too heavily, especially where your
gambling urges are concerned. Play it safe.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Because of your
inclination to expect more from others or situations
than you should, youll have only yourself to blame if
you end up being severely disappointed.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- A behavior pattern
that comfortably fts a close friend is not necessarily
tailored to suit your requirements, so dont copy it.
Live within your own comfort zone.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Youre likely to be rath-
er thrifty when it comes to insignifcant expenditures,
while at the same time youll have strong urges to
blow your entire budget on something meaningless.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO
ADMINISTER ESTATE OF
Hubert D. Forsyth
Case Number 122196
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, con-
tingent creditors, and persons who may
otherwise be interested in the will or es-
tate, or both, of: Hubert D. Forsyth. A
Petition for Probate has been filed by
Thomas Forsyth, John Forsyth & Laura
Bolin in the Superior Court of California,
County of San Mateo. The Petition for
Probate requests that Thomas Forsyth,
John Forsyth & Laura Bolin be appointed
as personal representative to administer
the estate of the decedent.
The petition requests the decedents will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to pro-
bate. The will and any codicils are availa-
ble for examination in the file kept by the
court.
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 7, 2012 at
9:00 a.m., Superior Court of California,
County of San Mateo, 400 County Cen-
ter, Redwood City, CA 94063. If you ob-
ject 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 con-
tingent creditor of the decedent, you
must file your claim with the court and
mail a copy to the personal representa-
tive appointed by the court within four
months from the date of first issuance of
letters as provided in Probate Code sec-
tion 9100. The time for filing 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 appraisal of estate
assets or of any petition or account as
provided in Probate Code section 1250.
A Request for Special Notice form is
available from the court clerk.
