Projects around San Mateo County will get
done this weekend thanks to the help of over
1,200 volunteers estimated to donate 5,300
hours of service over the two days.
On Saturday and Sunday, the Central
Peninsula Church will be canceling service
and parishioners will instead go into the com-

County tackles budget,again
Three days of preliminary hearings next week
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The county may cut $50 million and 270
positions as part of a budget plan aimed at
funding $1.7 billion in services and whacking
away at a growing structural deficit estimated
to hit $150 million by 2015.
County Manager David Boesch yesterday
presented proposals for the fiscal year 2011-
12 budget which the Board of Supervisors
will hash out over three days beginning
Tuesday. The trio of hearings will focus on
proposals made in early March by 20 depart-
ment heads in which they were asked to list
mandates, priorities and possible places to
cut.
The reports listed reductions ranging from
10 percent to 24 percent, all meant to close
two-thirds of a $82 million funding gap.
The county’s regular schedule of prelimi-
nary budget hearings isn’t until June but offi-
cials are taking the unusual step of holding
even more preliminary discussions because of

governments,” county spokesman Marshall
Wilson said in a prepared statement.
Another series is set for May.
The county has managed to avoid some of
the drastic cuts taken by other local govern-
ments by its prior fiscal management but still
can’t compensate for the loss of state funding,
the current economy and dropping local prop-
erty and sales tax, said Boesch.
The current fiscal year, which ends in June,
already saw a $36 million cut from programs
and services. Now, more is on the table.
The suggestions include cutting substance
abuse treatment for 225 adults at a $625,272
annual savings; closing the Kemp Camp for
Girls at the juvenile hall to save $2.1 million;
shuttering a receiving home for abused and
neglected children to save $600,000 annually
and closing Flood Park in Menlo Park for a
$205,000 yearly savings.
The Kemp Camp closure, for example,
would meet half the Probation Department’s
target reduction of $4.22 million. The camp
costs an average of $700 per girl a day and “is
simply no longer economically viable,” said
trial date April 6.
Meanwhile, criminal proceedings remain
suspended for alleged accomplice Jonathan
Medina, 15, until doctors determine if he is
able to aid in his own defense or should be
hospitalized as incompetent. Doctors’ reports
are due back March 30.
According to prosecutors, on July 15, 2010,
Gastelum, then 19, and Medina, then 14, mis-
takenly believed one of four men leaving the
Project 90 treatment program were Sureños

dants allegedly yelled and flashed Norteño

Public Works Director Jim Porter, who now
oversees the Parks Department, recommend-
ed in his presentation closing an entire park
rather than trim hours at several because
“frankly the department is at minimum
staffing ... there is simply not enough rangers
to get to all the parks.”
Next week’s early start lets both county
officials and the public weigh the impacts
before the formal budget is submitted in May
and hearings are held in June, Boesch said.
But even with all $50 million in cuts, the
county is still looking at a $32 million gap in
the upcoming fiscal year which means this is
not the end to decisions about labor costs and
overall operations.

STATE GOVERNMENT
• The Senate Health Committee approved legislation authored by
state Sen. Leland Yee, D-San Francisco/San Mateo, to require chil-
dren wear helmets while skiing and snowboarding.
Last session, then-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger signed an identi-
cal measure — Yee’s SB 880 — but vetoed a companion bill that called
for ski resorts to develop and publish safety plans. Enactment of SB
880 was contingent on the signing of AB 1652 — authored by then-
Assemblyman and now Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones — and thus the helmet man-
date did not go into effect.
This year, Yee has reintroduced the bill as a stand-alone measure.
Millbrae’s financial
records in question
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
A $17,913.58 discrepancy in payment to the
former Millbrae city manager has Councilman
Paul Seto questioning the accuracy of the city’s
financial records.
On Tuesday, the City Council discussed the dis-
crepancy between city records and what was paid
to former city manager Ralph Jaeck, who left the
city in 2008 making $218,600. The topic clearly
made the council uncomfortable but also caused
Seto to question payments of other employees.
“We’re disconnected in payroll,” said Seto,
adding if there are mistakes with the city man-
ager’s pay he questions other payments.
Seto was uncomfortable to discuss a person-
nel issue in open session noting it creates a neg-
ative public perception with allegations which
may not be true.
Seto originally noted the discrepancy previ-
ously discussed in closed session.
A Feb. 11 letter from City Attorney Joan
Cassman to Jaeck noted the gap between the
books and payment and requested a response.
According to a March 11 letter to Jaeck from
Mayor Dan Quigg, the two missed each other’s
phone calls and were therefore unable to reach
any kind of agreement on the matter.
THE DAILY JOURNAL
Jaeck responded in a
March 14 email regretting
that the matter had gotten to
this point. He’s since
retained an attorney as the
city was clearly working
with one.
“Dan, I liked working in
Millbrae and it was not
Ralph Jaeck about the pay,” Jaeck wrote.
“I thought I left in good
standing and don’t think my treatment by the
city (demand letter out of the blue from city
attorney delivered by FedEx on a Saturday) is
the way friends treat friends.”
During the Tuesday meeting, Quigg said he
was not making accusations but simply trying to
understand why the records don’t match up.
Also, if an overpayment was made, Quigg
would like the retirement payment records to be
fixed accordingly.
Councilwoman Gina Papan stressed the issue
was about carefully using public funds, a notion
echoed by her elected colleagues. Seto, howev-
er, added the cost of using attorneys could out-
weigh the money sought.
“I agree it’s about public funds, but at what
cost to public funds?” he said.

Aiming for national title
By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Hoping to come out on top, spirit-
ed San Mateo County teens from a
handful of high schools are heading
south this weekend to compete for a
national cheerleading title.
A number of local high schools
earned bids to compete in nationals
this weekend. Squads from Mercy,
El Camino, Notre Dame, Sequoia,
Hillsdale and Carlmont high schools
will travel to Anaheim this weekend
in hopes of earning a national title in
the United Spirit Association nation-
als competition held in Anaheim.
The squads all seem confident in
their chances.
Notre Dame’s 20-girl squad is
competing against 23 teams in the
large varsity novice show cheer divi-
sion, which it won last year.
“If you remember, Notre Dame
won the division last year and are the
reigning national champions and if
all goes well, we have a very good
chance to do it again this year,” said
coach Morgan Craig.
Co-captains of the South San
Francisco High School squad, sen-
iors Leah Sandoval and Charlene
DeCastro, are the first from their
school to cheer at all events the past
four years.
This weekend will be a culmina-
tion for the two girls who are part of
an 11-member, all-senior squad —
also unique for South City. The
squad earned their bid in January and
will be competing in the intermedi-
Some cities embrace
immigration scrutiny
ESCONDIDO — A city that has
taken numerous steps to crack down
on illegal immigration is at it again
— this time joining a string of
Southern California municipalities
that are signing up to tap a federal
database aimed at tighter scrutiny of
employees’ immigration status.
Escondido’s measure is modest
ate small division.
Hillsdale High School’s 13-girl
squad — consisting of six seniors, a
junior and six sophomores — earned
a bid at the holiday classic at the
University of California at Davis in
December where they took second
place.
Mercy’s Crusader Rabbits earned
their bid to nationals in November.
More than half of the 24-girl squad is
new this year, said coach Rebecca
Hazen. As a result, they’ll be com-
peting in large varsity novice instead
of intermediate this year.
Tumbling was a focus for the
young squad with freshmen making
up a majority of the team.
“I think this year the team bonding
that has happened since the begin-
ning of the year has been great. The
team has been really close. With a lot
of new people on the team, because
they’re really close, they care about
each other which has made coaching
them more fun,” said Hazen.
Sophomore Alexi-Marie Zagar
was on the squad last year and has
seen a difference.
Although they gone from interme-
diate to novice, they’re more bonded
as a team, she said. Working on the
basics gave the squad a chance to
really work on the little things, said
Zagar, who believes it will give the
squad an edge this weekend.
Carlmont’s squad took on a new
direction with a new purpose this
season, explained advisor and coach
Jelica Baker.

Court: No gay unions
in state during appeal
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — A federal
appeals court on Wednesday refused
to allow gay marriages to take place
in California while it considers the
constitutionality of the state’s voter-
approved ban. California Attorney
General Kamala Harris had joined
gay marriage proponents in urging
the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of
Appeals to lift a stay that had been
placed on a lower court’s ruling to
strike down Proposition 8.
Lawyers for two same-sex couples
had sought again to lift the stay after
the California Supreme Court
recently said it would take at least
as well as a reduction in rank and
pay, after finding him guilty
Tuesday of dereliction of duty for
failure to conduct a risk assessment.
The sentencing came after a
court-martial at Coast Guard head-
quarters in Alameda.

Elizabeth Taylor:1932-2011
Taylor was an outsized presence in a petite frame
By Christy Lemire
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — In death, she
is being heralded for her great beau-
ty, iconic and legendary persona,
tireless humanitarian work, and the
compassion and optimism she exud-
ed despite decades of physical ail-
ments.
But Elizabeth Taylor was, above
all else, a performer — a three-time
Oscar winner, a radiant child star
whose best work as an adult was her
most splashy and scenery-chewing.
While she may not have been the
greatest actress of her generation in
terms of pure talent and technique,
she had an irresistible screen pres-
ence that kept audiences ravished
by her films.
The contradictions alone were
fascinating: She could seem demure
yet seductive, aristocratic yet
bawdy. That tiny voice and petite
stature seemed at odds with the
intimidating femininity that would
define her glamorous aura.
When she was young, though —
in early, family-friendly films such
as “Lassie Come Home” (1943) and
especially “National Velvet” (1944)
Classic beauty in every sense
— she possessed a startling and
mature beauty for someone her age.
Those mesmerizing eyes that luxu-
rious dark hair and flawless skin —
they were all there, even back then.
It’s as if she never had to suffer
through an awkward period like the
rest of us.
Under Vincente Minnelli’s direc-
tion in “Father of the Bride” (1950),
she got a rare chance to show off
some comic ability as a young
woman trying to put on the perfect
wedding, even though Spencer
Tracy, as her beleaguered father,
gets the majority of the big laughs.
The following year, opposite a
blue-collar Montgomery Clift in “A
Place in the Sun” (1951), she was
gorgeous, sophisticated, a vibrant
image of idealized womanhood.

Elizabeth Taylor was the antithe-
sis of today’s Hollywood fashion
icon, who is eager to be seen as an
everywoman. She was always
dressed like a movie star: hair
done, makeup on and lots of jewel-
ry. Never would you see Taylor in
jeans and a T-shirt.
And while she was famous for
her Oscars, iconic roles and many
husbands, she was most renowned
for her beauty — the violet,
almond-shaped eyes, creamy skin,
pouty lips and raven hair. She died
Wednesday at 79 from congestive
heart failure.
The public saw her mature from a
young curly haired tomboy in
“National Velvet” to the sultry
“Cleopatra.” Yet no matter the time,
place or role, her glamour was con-
sistent, and that was inspiring to
women, even if they could never
quite replicate it.
“Every quality that we consider
classically beautiful, she had,” said
Amy Keller Laird, beauty director
of Allure. “She was sexy and girl-
ish at once, she had both those
qualities all through her life.”
In 1951, Taylor showed off her
legendary 19-inch waist in a strap-
less dress with a bodice top, full
tulle skirt and delicate flowers at
the neckline designed by Edith
Head. InStyle fashion director Hal
Rubenstein said the outfit the
“blueprint for prom dresses of the
’50s.”
Taylor went from dazzling beauty
in her glory years to self-described
ruin in old age.
She spent almost her entire life in
the public eye, from tiny dancer per-
forming at age 3 before the future
queen of England, to child screen
star to scandalous home-wrecker to
three-time Academy Award winner
for both acting and humanitarian
work.
A diva, she made a spectacle of
her private life — eight marriages,
ravenous appetites for drugs, booze
and food, ill health that sparked
headlines constantly proclaiming
her at death’s door. All of it often
overshadowed the fireworks she
created on screen.
Yet for all her infamy and indul-
gences, Taylor died Wednesday a
old Hollywood’s last larger-than-
life legends, adored even as she
waned to a tabloid figure.
Taylor, 79, died of congestive
heart failure at Cedars-Sinai
Medical Center, where she had been
hospitalized for about six weeks.
“We know, quite simply, that the
world is a better place for Mom
having lived in it. Her legacy will
never fade, her spirit will always be
with us, and her love will live forev-
er in our hearts,” her son, Michael
Wilding, said in a prepared state-
ment. A star from her teen years in
such films as “National Velvet,”
“Little Women” and “Father of the
Bride,” Taylor won best-actress
Oscars as a high-end hooker in
1960s “BUtterfield 8” and an alco-
holic shrew in a savage marriage in
1966’s “Who’s Afraid of Virginia
Woolf?”

Jerusalem blast kills one,wounds dozens
By Aron Heller and Dan Perry
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
JERUSALEM — Israeli warplanes hit
Hamas targets in Gaza early Thursday, retaliat-
ing for rocket attacks on Israeli cities, as ten-
sion peaked over the first deadly bombing tar-
geting Israelis in Jerusalem in several years.
A blast Israel quickly blamed on Palestinian
militants ripped through a bus stop in
Jerusalem on Wednesday, killing a woman,
wounding two dozen other people and intensi-
fying fears that a period of relative calm could
be ending as hopes for a negotiated peace fade.
Violence has been on the rise, with the knife
slaying this month of a Jewish settler family as
they slept and the deaths of civilians in Gaza
by Israeli strikes Tuesday in retaliation for
rocket fire from the Hamas-ruled strip.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
warned militants not to test Israel’s “iron will,”
and vowed a tough response to the bombing.
“Since this government was formed we had
a clear security policy — an immediate and
aggressive response to every attempt to harm
Israeli citizens,” he said after spending the
evening huddled with his defense minister,
military chief and other top security officials.
“We will act aggressively, responsibly and
wisely in order to preserve the quiet and secu-
rity that endured here the past two years.”
Retaliating, Israeli warplanes attacked sever-
al Hamas facilities and smuggling tunnels in
Gaza, Hamas said. No one was hurt.

Jerusalem in several years — along with a

Court weighs if age
should figure into questioning
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court
delved Wednesday into two cases involving
the welfare of children, including one where
justices seemed ready to force courts to con-
sider age when examining whether a child is
in custody and must be given Miranda rights.
The justices wrestled with whether a child,
in this case a seventh-grade special education
student, could understand he was free to end
police questioning and leave, a key indicator
of whether someone is in custody.
In the second case, the court appeared
unlikely to rule that delinquent parents must
be given a lawyer before judges can jail them
for not paying child support.
The special education student, known as
JDB in court papers was 13 in 2005 when he
confessed to a rash of break-ins in Chapel
Hill, N.C. while interviewed in a closed room
at his school by police and school officials.
JDB’s lawyer challenged the use of his con-
fessions. Previous court rulings have required
Miranda warnings before police interroga-
tions for people who are in custody, which is
defined as when a reasonable person would
think he cannot end the questioning and
leave.

Gov. Brown: Still waiting
for GOP offer in writing
By Juliet Williams
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO — With budget talks at an
apparent standstill, Gov. Jerry Brown said
Wednesday he still does not know exactly
what Republican lawmakers want in exchange
for their votes to support his proposed special

Californians to extend temporary increases in
the sales, personal income and vehicle taxes
that were enacted two years ago. The governor
also is seeking about $12.5 billion in spending
cuts to address the state’s $26.6 billion deficit.

Concern in Tokyo over
radiation in tap water
TOKYO — Radiation leaking from Japan’s
tsunami-damaged nuclear power plant has
caused Tokyo’s tap water to exceed safety
standards for infants to drink, officials said
Wednesday, sending anxiety levels soaring
over the nation’s food and water supply.
Residents cleared store shelves of bottled
water after Tokyo Gov. Shintaro Ishihara said
levels of radioactive iodine in tap water were
more than twice what is considered safe for
babies. Officials begged those in the city to
buy only what they needed, saying hoarding
could hurt the thousands of people without
any water in areas devastated by the March 11
earthquake and tsunami.
“I’ve never seen anything like this,” clerk
Toru Kikutaka said, surveying the downtown
Tokyo supermarket where the entire stock of
bottled water sold out almost immediately
after the news broke, despite a limit of two,
two-liter bottles per customer.
The unsettling new development affecting
Japan’s largest city, home to around 13 million
people, added to growing fears over the
nation’s food supply.
Germany set to abandon
nuclear power for good
BERLIN — Germany is determined to
show the world how abandoning nuclear ener-
gy can be done.
The world’s fourth-largest economy stands
alone among leading industrialized nations in
its decision to stop using nuclear energy
because of its inherent risks. It is betting bil-
lions on expanding the use of renewable ener-
gy to meet power demands instead.
The transition was supposed to happen
slowly over the next 25 years, but is now being
accelerated in the wake of Japan’s Fukushima
Dai-ichi nuclear plant disaster, which
Chancellor Angela Merkel has called a “catas-
trophe of apocalyptic dimensions.”

At least six were killed in the early morning
attack on the al-Omari mosque in the southern
agricultural city of Daraa, where protesters
have taken to the streets in calls for reforms and
political freedoms, witnesses said. An activist
in contact with people in Daraa said police shot

Portables for Summit High
Redwood High’s dreams of stay-

Summit was handed its plans for

its current location and move
Summit into portables on the
Sequoia High campus.
It was all apologies from board
members who recognized the emo-

high schools over the previous year.
When estimated costs for the latest
plans ballooned from $1.5 million
to $8.5 million, the school district

continuing to look for a permanent

Race track sues city
The Bay Meadows Land
Company filed a lawsuit against
the city of San Mateo the week of
March 25, 2006 hoping to nullify
a referendum petition aimed at
preventing the development of its
83.5-acre race track.
The lawsuit argued the city
failed to meet basic state election
laws by allowing Friends of Bay
Meadows to recirculate an incom-
plete referendum petition. If a San
Mateo County judge ruled in favor
of Bay Meadows, the referendum
would be invalidated.
Bay Meadows filed a similar
complaint the previous month
when it asked a judge to include it
in a lawsuit filed by Friends of
Bay Meadows against the city and
the San Mateo County Elections
Office. Friends of Bay Meadows
claimed about 150 votes were tal-
lied incorrectly, causing their peti-
tion to fail. The judge refused Bay
Meadows’ request and told the
company it must argue its case in
a separate lawsuit.

Which revenue is

Editor,
On March 22, Redwood City Mayor
Jeff Ira said that Cargill is paying for
staff time to work on their application to
develop 1,436 acres of salt flats. This
“provides an additional revenue source”
for the city, he says, which is particular-
ly helpful in these lean times.
Unfortunately for the citizens of
Redwood City, it seems that not all rev-
enue sources are equal. When staff in
the City Manager’s Office raised over
$100,000 in grants in 2009/2010 to
study and implement a climate action
plan and environmental program, the
council in its March 22, 2010 meeting
criticized them and ordered an audit to
make sure they were not costing the city
any money. Is it that when the source is
Cargill, the revenue is good, but when
the source is the Packard Foundation for
implementation of environmental pro-
grams, the revenue is bad?

Wake up San Mateo County
Editor,
Another sentencing sends a poor mes-
sage to children. Forty-nine-year-old
Jeff Gracia of Pacifica was sentenced to
probation and a year in jail for several
felony offenses. He was convicted of
having oral sex with a 14-year-old boy
and possessing child pornography.
How does this happen? San Mateo
County Superior Court Judge Craig
Parsons, that’s how. The victim urged
the judge to impose the maximum sen-
tence, which was seven years and eight
months in state prison. But the victim’s
father and oldest brother both testified
as character witnesses on behalf of
Gracia. This victim has been victimized
by everyone involved; Garcia, his fami-
ly and our judge.

Skeptical about
Belmont’s school redistricting
Editor,
School redistricting, while necessary
and often good for communities in the
long run, can be painful for the first
people directly affected. Friends are
separated, pick-up/drop-offs reconfig-
ured and communities are disrupted.
That’s why I was surprised to find out
that school officials in my town of
Belmont are planning to redistrict in a
way that seems to maximize both the
numbers of families affected across
town and also the movement of students
between elementary schools that are the
most different.
For example, all Central students
south of Ralston will move to Nesbit,
(which locals know means four stop-
lights instead of one). Now that the
word is out about their plan, I look for-
ward to the school district communicat-

Don’t cut national parks
Editor,
While Congress makes important
decisions on federal budget cuts, our
national parks should not be put on the

protect spectacular places like Yosemite

visited Yosemite in 2010 alone.
These places also provide jobs for
local residents and support our econo-

suffer from an annual operations short-
fall of more than $600 million and a

A sporting chance
W
ith the National Football League’s future look-
ing as shaky as Michael Vick’s chance at future
dog ownership, perhaps it is time for sports fans
to embrace a new national pastime.
Certainly, the Boys of Summer are gearing up for the reg-
ular season, particularly my favorite band of misfits in
orange and black. There is also college basketball, although
that’s winding down; hockey,
although the best part about
that are the fights; golf, unless
you were soured by Tiger
Woods’ bevy of honeys; and a
whole host of sports that make
other countries go wild like
soccer.
But the football battle in the
legal arena could leave a pretty
big hole in American sports
and that’s not even counting
the advertising dollars lost by
the lack of a Super Bowl half-
time (even admitting that this
year was one big snore-fest).
With that in mind, maybe we should look elsewhere for
weekend yelling and Monday morning quarterbacking. How
about pingpong or badminton? Those players look pretty
feisty with a shuttlecock. Certainly, there is an on-field
brawl brewing underneath those intense stares in competi-
tion. Think of what a good weapon a paddle could make.
Curling, anybody? Sure, nobody knows how to play, but
what difference does that make? When did that ever stop
anybody from picking a team, stocking up on appropriately
colored and labeled gear and claiming to be a lifelong fan?
Yet, the United States always aims to be a little different.
Otherwise, why would we refer to our football game as such
when everybody else in the world thinks the term means
that game David Beckham plays when he isn’t off modeling
underwear and denying infidelity rumors?
In other words, let’s take a different route. I’m not sug-
gesting we just make up a game. Instead, let’s steal a little-
known competition and blow it up into something big and
outrageous and money-making.
How about octopush, otherwise known as underwater
hockey? Yep, hockey on the bottom of a pool.
Unfortunately, that doesn’t seem like much of a spectator
sport.
Then there’s cheese rolling, a sport that sounds like a fan-
tastic combination for the requisite beer-laden tailgate par-
ties. Even better, the official Cooper’s Hill Cheese-rolling
and Wake in England is officially on hiatus reportedly
because of safety concerns. Not only would the American
Cheese-Rolling League not have to worry about infuriating
current fans by stealing away their star rollers, the sport is
deemed unsafe. If that isn’t fitting for an American sport,
nothing is. Bring on the head injuries and toothless smiles!
And — yes there’s more! — the product tie-in options are
limitless, not to mention the possible team names. The
Burlingame Brie. The Evanston Edam. The San Francisco
Stilton. Boundless, really.
For the lactose intolerant, however, there’s always wife
carrying in which a male hauls a female through a special
obstacle track. The sport is most closely associated with
Finland where the prize is the wife’s weight in beer (may I
mention product tie-ins once again?) but there are also
North American matches particularly in the Midwest and on
the East Coast. Even so, the industry is small and just wait-
ing to explode into a major event. Of course, there must be
some tweaks in the name of equality and political correct-
ness. Partner-carrying is probably a better fit not only for
the same-sex competitors but also those delightful couples
in which the wife’s strength outweighs the man’s girth. Who
says only women get lugged across the threshold, or rather,
through an obstacle course?
If all that fails, there is always ferret legging which, as it
sounds, requires male participants to tie off the bottom of
their pants and slip live ferrets inside. The winner is the one
who lasts the longest. Oddly, although there is an annual
endurance test in Virginia, the sport is described by many
sources as dying. Strange.
These sources — which also point out that the female
equivalent, ferret busting, didn’t really work out — say that
the world record is five hours and 30 minutes. And that cer-
tainly was before the golden age of steroids. Wait, I mean
arthritis cream and flaxseed oil.
Most likely, football will not float away to that great big
stadium in the sky and legions of faithful can continue with
their face paint and chants. It’s good to know, however,
there are backup options.
The question, though, is if any of them will really take the
place of football. If both sides take a page from the baseball
strike and the labor dispute lasts too long, perhaps there’s a
sporting chance.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Stocks edged higher
Wednesday after a government report
showed stronger demand for gasoline.
Indexes had been lower earlier in the
day but rallied after an Energy
Department report showed that gasoline
consumption continues to grow despite
sharp price increases at the pump. It’s a
possible sign that motorists have handled
higher fuel costs without cutting back.
Economists have been concerned that
the recent spike in oil prices could
imperil the economic recovery.
Oil prices reached their highest level
since Sept. 26, 2008. West Texas
Intermediate crude rose 78 cents to settle
at $105.75 per barrel.
Stocks had been weighed down by
news that the earthquake and tsunami
that hit Japan will be the most expensive
natural disaster in history. Financial
stocks were lower after the Federal
Reserve rejected Bank of America’s plan
to increase its dividend.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose
67.39 points, or 0.6 percent, to close at
12,086.02.
The Standard & Poor’s 500 index
edged up 3.77 points, or 0.3 percent, to
Wall Street
close at 1,297.54.
The Nasdaq composite index rose
14.43, or 0.5 percent, to 2,698.30.
The Japanese government estimated
that rebuilding costs for the earthquake
could be as high as $300 billion. The
widespread devastation is expected to
drag the growth rate of the Japanese
economy down by 0.5 percent this year.
Japanese companies such as Toyota and
Honda have suspended production at
some plants.
Bank of America Corp. fell 1.7 percent
after the Federal Reserve rejected its
plan to raise its dividend in the second
half of the year. The Fed allowed several
major banks to increase their dividends
last week after they passed stress tests.
Banks slashed their payments to share-
holders during the financial crisis to save
cash. Bank of America said it expects to
submit another request to increase its
dividend this year.
“This was obviously a disappoint-
ment,” said Todd Salamone, the director
of research at Schaeffer’s Investment
Research. “There seemed to be a grow-
ing consensus that financial stocks were
looking more attractive based on the
prospect of dividend increases.”

General Mills 3Q net income climbs

By Michelle Chapman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — General Mills Inc.’s
net income rose 18 percent in the fiscal
third quarter, driven by the sale of more
snacks and strength abroad.
The maker of Nature Valley snack bars
and Cheerios cereal has started to raise
prices for some of its products over the
past few months to cope with rising
ingredient costs. It expects price increas-
es will accelerate during the current fis-
cal fourth quarter.
Chairman and CEO Ken Powell antic-
ipates that quarter will include the “high-
est earnings growth of the year.”
That expectation led the food compa-
ny to maintain its 2011 earnings and rev-
enue outlooks Wednesday.
For the period ended Feb. 27, General
Mills earned $392.1 million, or 59 cents
per share. That’s up from $332.5 mil-
lion, or 48 cents per share, a year earlier.
Adjusted earnings were 56 cents per
share, matching the expectations of ana-
lysts surveyed by FactSet.
The food maker, which is in exclusive
talks to buy a majority stake in French
yogurt maker Yoplait, said its quarterly
revenue climbed 2 percent to $3.65 bil-
lion. Wall Street forecast $3.7 billion.
Revenue for the snack division
increased 14 percent, with Nature Valley
and Fiber One snack bars among its
strongest performers.
Revenue from Yoplait yogurt, which
General Mills makes in the U.S. under
license from the French company
Sodiaal, rose 1 percent. General Mills
anticipates the proposed Yoplait transac-
tion will close in the fiscal first quarter of
2012.
The company also saw solid results
from its Small Planet Foods natural and
organic unit, with revenue up 14 percent.
Revenue for the bakeries and foodser-
vice division rose 9 percent.

Business briefs
New home sales slowest in at least a half-century
WASHINGTON — Home construction in the United
States is all but coming to a halt.
Americans are on track to buy fewer new homes than in
any year since the government began keeping data almost a
half-century ago. Sales are now just half the pace of 1963 —
even though there are 120 million more people in the United
States now.
The sliding sales show just how far the housing market
has fallen since the bubble burst four years ago. And they’re
a blow to the economic recovery as it draws strength from
other places.
Diminished sales have driven the median price of a new
home down to about $202,000, the lowest since 2003. If the
sluggish sales continue, analysts say, small homebuilders
will fold, meaning less competition as the market improves
and higher prices later.

Gilead HIV drug meets study goal

FOSTER CITY — Gilead Sciences Inc. said Wednesday
its potential HIV treatment elvitegravir met its key goals in
a late-stage study.
Its shares rose 41 cents to $40.85 in morning trading.
Patients received once-daily doses of the drug candidate
over a 48-week period or a twice daily dose of raltegravir,
which is made by Merck & Co. under the name Isentress.
Elvitegravir met the primary goal of “non-inferiority,” or
working as well as Isentress.

McAfee plans to acquire Sentrigo

SANTA CLARA — Security software maker McAfee,
which is now part of Intel Corp., said Wednesday it plans to
acquire database security company Sentrigo.
Financial terms were not disclosed.
McAfee said the acquisition of the privately held Sentrigo
will allow it to improve its database security offerings. The
deal is expected to close in April.
Intel, the world’s largest chip maker, bought McAfee in
February.

Moe makes Tigers go
By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The 2010-11 season for Terra Nova’s
Terilyn Moe could not have started off
any worse.
It had nothing to do with the stat sheet,
or her team’s six wins in eight games. For
Moe, the new basketball season started
with heartbreak when her long time
coach at the Mission Rec in San
Francisco, a father figure she refers to as
Oscar, passed away. He had been her
coach since the 5th grade.
“It was tough,” Moe said. “It’s one of
the toughest things I’ve had to go through
and I’m still going through. I just told
myself I would keep playing for him and
do him proud.”
Somewhere up in basketball heaven,
coach Oscar, sitting in his foldable
coach’s chair, could not be any prouder.
To say that Moe played inspired —
almost heavenly — basketball this year
would be an understatement. The junior
guard, in her third season at the varsity
level, led her Tigers team through a tear
of the Peninsula Athletic League — a
stretch of 15 basketball games in which
Moe and Terra Nova were hardly chal-
lenged and went unblemished.
Along the way the point guard put up
insane numbers: 21.7 points per game, six
assists and six rebounds a game and a 75
percent shooting touch from the free
throw line. In 29 games this year, Moe
scored at least 20 points 17 times and was
held to single digits only once — based
on that alone, Moe could run away with
the Daily Journal Female Basketball
Athlete of the Year.
But Moe’s worth to the Terra Nova girls
basketball program can not be measured
in numbers alone because those that
know about the Tigers’ history pre-Moe,
know of a much different basketball
team.
And since her arrival, the Tigers have
gone from cellar dwellers to the cream of
the PAL crop thanks in large part to the
evolution of Moe’s role as a leader.
“She’s growing into herself,” said Terra
Nova coach Kareem Summerville. “As a
young player, she was rough around the
edges. And showing her the ropes, of how
to be a leader, she grew into it. I think at
first it was hard, but once she figured out
what she needed to do be a better player
and to make the players around you bet-
ter, she made the adjustment. It showed
character and the kids looked up to her.
That’s one thing about our team: How far
is Terilyn going to take us? And if she
keeps it positive, the players will stay pos-
itive.”
Moe agrees with Summerville’s assess-
ment.
“My role has definitely changed,” Moe
said. “The leadership role kind of just fell
on me and I took it. It’s tough, but I’m
used to it and I enjoy it. I like to carry the
team. I like to be the one to be there for
everyone.”
While there is a list of games where
Moe’s numbers were insane, maybe the
one that best defines the season she had
was during the championship game of the
PAL tournament against Mills.
The Vikings played the Terra Nova
tough to start the contest and were seem-
ingly unintimidated by the undefeated
Tigers, actually taking a 34-26 lead into
halftime. It was during those 10 minutes
in the locker room that Moe showed why
she is the player that she is.
“I told the team that there was no way
we were losing this game,” Moe said.
“There were too many people out in the
stands and everywhere that wanted us to
lose and we weren’t going to lose this
game. And I think they really took it to
heart.”
Summerville agrees.
“I didn’t have to say too much, once she
spoke up at halftime, it was like every-
one’s eyes were on her,” Summerville
said. “After that game was over, I just
said ‘Thank you. You showed leadership
and hard work and determination. Those

More NCAA
madness
expected
By John Marshall
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
For the second straight year, the NCAA
tournament had a wild first weekend filled
with upsets, buzzer beaters and virtuoso per-
formances by star players.
And, for the second straight year, people
across the country had to rip up their brackets,
left with no chance of winning because they
didn’t see Morehead State bumping off
Louisville, Butler making another run to the
round of 16 or any of the other how’d-that-
happen games.
Next up are the regionals and there are still
plenty of great teams, great players and excit-
ing story lines.
Duke, the defending national champion, is
still in the bracket, as are Kansas and Ohio
State, two of the other three No. 1 seeds.
Upset specialists Butler, Marquette and
Virginia Commonwealth have made it
through, setting up another potential mid-
major breakthrough. And there’s still plenty of
stars, from The Jimmer to King Kemba and
D-Will of the desert.
It should be a fun week. Here’s a few things
to keep an eye on while you’re planted in that
worn down recliner.

Passion
reignited
O
nly 11 days ago did I come to the
realization that I no longer cared
for the game of basketball —
professional and college games specifically.
I had all but sworn off the NBA several
years ago — all except for the Warriors for
some inexplicable reason — and mere
days from the start of the NCAA tourna-
ment, I declared (to my wife) I didn’t care.
No bracket for me this year. Nope. Too
much of a hassle to set up an office pool, I
was prepared to go bracketless for the first
time since I can
remember.
And I can remem-
ber quite a ways
back. I remember
Louisville beating
UCLA for the 1980
title and filled out my
first real bracket dur-
ing the 1986 tourna-
ment when
Louisville, again,
won it all, behind
“Never Nervous”
Pervis Ellison.
Every year since then, I filled out a
bracket. Often times for fun, others for a
pool in college or in the office.
This year, however, I was going to end
the streak. It’s not that I completely
checked out of basketball, it’s just that I
had never followed it with less interest than
I did this year.
Sure, I was outraged when St. Mary’s
was denied a bid, but other than that, eh,
wasn’t real interested.

Serra back at .500 with win over Mitty

By Julio Lara
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
For a moment, things weren’t look-
ing too good for the Serra lacrosse
team.
After starting the season with three
straight wins, the Padres hit a bit of a
skid and dropped four in a row — a
stretch that included back-to-back
losses to start off the West Catholic
Athletic League regular season by a
combined score of 29-8.
As it turned out, there was no need
to push the panic button.
Instead, the Padres (2-2 WCAL)
have bounced back nicely and after
their 9-2 domination of Archbishop
Mitty Wednesday afternoon Serra
finds itself above .500 once again and
with some nice momentum heading
into the a non-league match against
San Marin Friday afternoon.
“It was a good contest,” said Serra
coach Bubba Sandford. “Mitty always
has a good team (and) good athletes.
They’re well coached by Carlos
(Trujillo) so it was a good contest.”
Good because Serra controlled
Mitty and its main scoring threat
Vincent Giglierano on defense. On
offense, the Padres’ load was hauled
by senior captain Mike Bertoldi who
scored four goals and assisted on
another.
“Our defense played stellar,”
Bertoldi said. “They played very well
on the man downs and controlled the
face-offs. We possessed the ball really
well.”
Serra’s offense was consistent for
the majority of the game. Bertoldi got
the scoring started a little over three
minutes into the game when he slid in
nicely on the Monarchs’ defense. The
short-range goal put the Padres up 1-
0.
They’d double their lead with 2:10
left in the period when Sam Oliver
found the back of the net on a pass
from Bertoldi.
The fun continued for the Padres 54
seconds in the second quarter when
Connor Goodin fed Matt McGloin
mid-stride on a beautiful cut to the
net.
With a 3-0 lead the Padres began to
make mental mistakes and got slash-
happy with as many as three players
in the penalty box for the same
infraction.
But Serra’s defense held the
Monarchs scoreless during that peri-
od of time. The skies actually opened
up a bit producing a couple of wet
minutes. That didn’t stop the Padres
from scoring. Goodin got on the
score sheet with an unassisted goal at
8:32 and less than a minute later, Sam
Canovas hit McGloin with a nice
cross field pass from behind the net
that the sophomore buried from dis-
tance.
Serra’s Sam Oliver, left, puts a check on a Mitty player during the Padres’
9-2 win over the visiting Monarchs Wednesday afternoon.
Serra would take that 5-0 lead into
halftime.
NATHAN MOLLAT / DAILY JOURNAL
“We had a couple guys who moved
(the ball) well,” Sandford said.
“Bertoldi has been play well lately.”
Bertoldi all but took over offensively
in the second half for Serra. He’d score
three of the fours goal in the final 24
minutes. But first the Padres’ defense
had their moment in the sun. Serra’s
defense stifled Mitty to begin the third
quarter. The Monarchs didn’t get a shot
on Clinton Cosko’s goal until 1:55 left
in the frame. While the Padres didn’t
score in the quarter, it was their defense
that sealed the deal for them.
While the Serra defense frustrated
Mitty, the nail in the coffin was sup-
plied by Bertoldi when he scored on an
Oliver assist 20 seconds into the fourth
quarter. Only 25 seconds after that,
Callan Fisher notched his first goal of
the season on a fine “right-place-at-the-
right-time” kind of goal following a
McGloin shot that hit the Mitty pipe
and ricocheted out to the senior.
The Monarchs would finally break
through with 8:56 left in the game on a
great individual play by Giglierano.
No. 7 would get one more goal, this
time from distance, before the game
was over.
Bertoldi scored his fourth goal of the
game on another assist by Oliver.
“It’s not just me,” Bertoldi said about
his four-goal game. “It’s about the
team. We moved the ball well, we
moved well around the crease. It’s
about practice, practice, practice. And
that translates on the field.”

Bonds’longtime friend takes stand against him
By Ronald Blum
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — Barry Bonds looked
at the witness stand with a blank expression as
a childhood friend and former business partner
described how baseball’s biggest star walked
into the master bedroom at his spring training
home along with trainer Greg Anderson, who
had a syringe with a needle.
A few minutes later, Bonds and Anderson
walked out.
Steve Hoskins testified in federal court
Wednesday that he never saw Anderson inject
Bonds. The question for the jury will be
whether Hoskins’ description, which the
defense began to challenge later in the day, is a
path toward convicting Bonds of lying when he
told a grand jury seven years ago he never
knowingly took steroids.
Speaking softly and fidgeting a bit in the wit-
ness chair, Hoskins gave the first dramatic testi-
Angels rough up Cain Cubs shut down Oakland
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TEMPE, Ariz. — Bobby Abreu and the Los
Angeles Angels made Matt Cain pay for throw-
ing too many balls.
Abreu hit his third homer this spring, a three-
run shot that highlighted a five-run first inning
that sent the Angels over the San Francisco
Giants 8-0 Wednesday with boxing great
Muhammad Ali in attendance.
Many of the Angels had their pictures taken
with Ali prior to the game in the locker room.
Ali then watched part of the game from a suite
behind home plate.
Cain pitched three innings. He had gone five
scoreless Cactus League innings over two previ-
ous games.
“I was behind on a lot of counts,” Cain said. “I
wasn’t able to command the left side of the
plate. I was a little bit out of rhythm. My arm
strength was fine. I felt fine. Today doesn’t look
great, but I felt fine.”
Angels starter Ervin Santana pitched five
shutout innings, striking out six.
“Those were great hitters,” said Santana, 17-

think a little bit.”

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MESA, Ariz. — Carlos Silva had something to
prove, and time was running out.
Having a terrible spring training so far, it was
essential he impressed his manager Wednesday.
After giving up a leadoff hit and a one-out RBI
double to Josh Willingham, Silva did just that. He
turned it around, retiring 17 of 18 and leading the
Chicago Cubs over the Oakland Athletics 3-1.
“I didn’t want to walk out the door the way I
was pitching,” said Silva, who is competing with
Braden Looper and Andrew Cashner for the final
spot in the rotation.
The right-hander came in with a 15.88 ERA,
but allowed one run and three hits in six innings.
He also had three strikeouts in what should be his
last appearance before manager Mike Quade
finalizes his pitching staff.
Silva had allowed 20 earned runs in his previ-
ous 11 1-3 innings.
“This means the decisions remain tough and
we are thrilled to death that guys are making it
tough,” said manager Mike Quade, who men-
tioned earlier in the day he wants a final decision
by Saturday. “I was glad Silva threw the ball
well.”

Bonds, in a lighter gray suit than previous days
and a striped tie, took copious notes during the

Jeff Novitzky to the stand and became the second

Both prosecutors and the defense played for the

made of a conversation that took place in front of
Bonds’ locker in 2003. Hoskins said he put an
Olympus digital recorder in a pocket and record-

“I needed this game,” he
said. “I don’t know what the

Gio Gonzalez dence. When they tell me I
am in competition for the
fifth spot I am going to fight.”
Quade said he plans on waiting as long as pos-
sible to make a decision and the players need to
understand that they have a chance until then.
Oakland starter Gio Gonzalez went 5 2-3
innings, allowing two earned runs on four hits
and three walks. He struck out six. Geovany Soto
and Alfonso Soriano had RBI singles in the first
inning.
“I was working on a couple of changeups in
certain counts,” Gonzalez said. “There is stuff I
am still working on and I wanted to get the runs
out of the way now.”

Stanford’s home away from home: Spokane Regional
By Janie McCauley
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
STANFORD — Tara VanDerveer remem-
bers the moment almost as if it were yesterday:
Candice Wiggins and her fellow starters hud-
dled in a circle, holding hands in close-knit cel-
ebration after finally ending Stanford’s 10-year
Final Four drought.
That was four years ago at the Spokane
Regional after a thrilling victory over top-seed-
ed Maryland. This weekend, VanDerveer’s No.
1 Cardinal (31-2) will return to that very site in
the Pacific Northwest needing two more wins
to reach a fourth straight Final Four.
“That was a fabulous game,” VanDerveer
recalled of the regional final. “We had a little
chip on our shoulder because we were a No. 2
seed. It was incredibly intense and moving. We
want to go back there and recapture that spirit.
We have to play well.”
Wiggins scored 41 points that night to lead
Stanford past Maryland 98-87. The Cardinal
went on to upset Connecticut in the Final Four
before falling to Tennessee in the NCAA title
game in Tampa, Fla. Current fifth-year senior
Melanie Murphy was Wiggins’ roommate in
Spokane during that run.
“Now, it’s like returning to the scene of the
crime,” Murphy said after practice Wednesday,
a day ahead of the team’s charter flight to
Spokane and check-in day at the historic down-
town Davenport Hotel. “That year was a huge

Dynamic duos
Jon Leuer and Jordan Taylor, Wisconsin.
Leuer is a big banger, but also has a deft touch
from the perimeter. Taylor is difficult to keep
out of the lane, can also shoot outside and has
a knack for making big plays. Nice combina-
tion.
Kyle Singler and Nolan Smith, Duke.
Smith became the first player to lead the ACC
in scoring and assists, while Singler is as mul-
tidimensional as they come. They won a title
together.
Matt Howard and Shelvin Mack, Butler.
Howard is the kind of guy who could get his
teeth knocked out and not even slow down.
Mack has quietly become one of the best
guards in the country. They’re both winners,
too, as evidenced by the past two NCAA tour-
naments.
Marquee matchups
They’re all marquee at this point, right?
SPORTS
This group won’t be satisfied with just getting to the
Final Four in Indianapolis.… Not after leading at halftime
in last year’s final only to lose to two-time reigning champion
UConn,then beating the Huskies in commanding fashion at
Maples on Dec.30 to snap their record 90-game winning streak.
turning point. The Maryland game finally put
us over the hump, back to the Final Four. Then,
we had a lot of returners the next year, which
allowed us to continue that legacy (of annual
Final Four trips) that we had in the 90s.”
Stanford is riding a 25-game winning streak
after capturing its 63rd straight home victory at
Maples Pavilion on Monday night by beating
St. John’s 75-49. Next up is No. 5 North
Carolina (27-8) on Saturday at the Spokane
Arena.
Thanks to Murphy’s music writing skills and
a whirlwind on-campus production over the
past two weeks right at Maples, the Cardinal
debuted a music video Wednesday to bring
some additional hype to the weekend. “I Got
Bounce” hit YouTube and Facebook on
Wednesday and was already beginning to gen-
erate quite a buzz.
“A lot of people think Stanford, we’re a
bunch of deadbeats,” said VanDerveer, who
thinks the video could create even more inter-
est for potential Stanford-bound high school
students. “It’s just the opposite.”
Stanford has already played in Spokane once
Well, some have a little more pizzaz than oth-
ers. Here’s the ones you need to make sure to
at least get the DVR rollin’ for:
Ohio State vs. Kentucky, East Regional,
Friday in Newark, N.J. There’s going to be
so many athletes on the floor it’s going to look
like an All-Star game. Soaring dunks and 3-
pointers will be flying in from everywhere.
Strap in and enjoy.
Arizona vs. Duke, West Regional,
Thursday in Anaheim. This one’s worth
watching just to see what Arizona’s Derrick
Williams will do next. Throw in the defending
national champions and it’s time to let the
couch mold around you for 2 1/2 hours.
BYU vs. Florida, Southeast Regional,
Thursday in New Orleans. One word:
Jimmer. Well, that and watching to see if CBS
announcer Gus Johnson gets fired up when
Fredette starts pouring ’em in.
The other guys
Most of the teams left in the tournament
have a singular star, such as San Diego State’s
Kawhi Leonard and Kemba Walker of
Connecticut.
But these teams wouldn’t have gotten here
with just a star and a bunch of no-names;
this season, beating Gonzaga 84-78 in a hard-
fought game on Nov. 21. The West Coast
Conference champion Zags also have advanced
to the round of 16 after the 11th-seeded hosts
upset No. 3 UCLA 89-75 on Monday night.
A Stanford-Gonzaga regional final would
thrill the basketball-crazed Eastern Washington
city.
Kayla Pedersen and Jeanette Pohlen, now the
Cardinal’s two senior stars, were freshmen the
last time in Spokane and playing in their first
NCAA tournament.
“I think my favorite memory from that trip
was the Maryland game — how hyped we
were, how Candice led the way,” Pedersen said.
“So, yeah, we’re both excited to go back to
Spokane. I know Jeanette and I really wanted
to go back because we had gone there our
freshman year. It’s a really special place for us
and we hope we can get the win.”
Make that four more wins, actually.
This group won’t be satisfied with just get-
ting to the Final Four in Indianapolis. Not in
this special season. Not after leading at half-
time in last year’s final only to lose to two-time
Kansas’ Danny Manning and the Miracles or
Larry Bird at Indiana State are usually anom-
alies.
To get this far, even teams with a star need
a Robin to pick up the slack when Batman is
struggling. Here’s a few of the guys behind
the guy:
Jon Diebler, Ohio State. Big freshman
Jared Sullinger gets the hoopla, Diebler a lot
of the hoops, at least from the outside. Known
as “3-bler,” he’s hit 110 3-pointers this season,
giving the Buckeyes an impressive inside-out-
side game. Consider David Lighty, who hit
seven 3s against George Mason, Ohio State’s
Robin II.
Markieff Morris, Kansas. During their
first two years in Lawrence, Marcus was con-
sidered the better Morris twin. This season,
’Kieff has upped his game, giving the
Jayhawks not just one banger who can also
bang in 3-pointers, but two.
Kendall Marshall, North Carolina.
Harrison Barnes was a preseason All-
American and started right away, but it was
his fellow freshman who helped the Tar Heels
make an impressive late-season run. Since
Marshall took over as the starting point guard,
the Tar Heels have won 16 of 18. He is the

reigning champion UConn, then beating the
Huskies in commanding fashion at Maples on
Dec. 30 to snap their record 90-game winning
streak.
Eight days before that milestone win over
UConn, VanDerveer joined North Carolina
coach Sylvia Hatchell in the elite 800 wins
club.
Stanford should be at full strength to face
Hatchell’s tall and aggressive team, which
advanced to the round of 16 by beating
Kentucky 86-74 on Monday night behind a 55-
31 rebounding advantage.
Pac-10 Freshman of the Year Chiney
Ogwumike is recovering from a dislocated
pinkie finger on her non-shooting left hand that
isn’t considered serious, while freshman
reserve Toni Kokenis has a sprained left ankle.
X-rays were negative for Kokenis and
VanDerveer hopes she will be ready to go
Saturday.
VanDerveer got a kick out of seeing her play-
ers’ dance skills in the music video, which she
said brought this bunch together in a different
way.
Yet her job has been to keep everybody on
task. The coaches spent Tuesday studying up
on North Carolina and game-planning for the
physical Tar Heels. The next round is the next
step for a team determined to capture the pro-
gram’s first national championship since 1992.
“This would be a fun team to win with,”
VanDerveer said.
wheel that makes the Heels go.

Then my publisher asked me the Monday

fill out a bracket — for fun. Ah heck, why
not? I spent about five minutes filling out the
winners, turned it in and didn’t really think
about it again.
Until the tournament started. Then, I
couldn’t get enough of it. Thursday through
Sunday, I spent more time watching college

only Morehead State, but also Richmond, to
face off in the second round? I lost six games
in the first round and currently stand with 40
points in our impromptu pool, good for a
first-place tie. I have 10 of the Sweet 16
teams correctly picked to this point.
I am by no means claiming to some secret
way to picking my teams, or a system — evi-

Growing vegetables can be easy
By Lee Reich
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Some things bear repeating: Plant vegeta-
bles.
The tastes of fresh-picked beans, lettuce,
and tomatoes, grown from seeds of varieties
bred for flavor rather than commercial appeal,
will knock your socks off. Not to mention the
satisfaction of doing “work” that puts food
directly into your belly.
Planned correctly, the most basic vegetable
garden takes little time or effort. Here’s how
to plan and plant this most basic garden.
LOCATION, LOCATION
First, the site. For the plants’ sake, full sun
— at least six hours daily — and well-drained
soil are a must. If water stays puddled on the
ground more than a few hours after rain has
stopped, roots will suffocate.
For your sake, locate the garden as close to
your house as possible — ideally, no farther
from your door than you can throw the
kitchen sink. With the garden close by, you’ll
have no qualms about running out to grab
another pepper for roasting or snipping some
basil for a salad. And while you’re there, you
might even stop to pull a weed or two.
EASY BEGINNINGS
The traditional way to create the garden is
to till the soil a couple of times, wait a couple
of weeks, till again, wait again, and then plant
in rows, between which you till or hoe
through the season. All that takes time and
effort.
SUBURBAN LIVING
Nothing inspires spring fever quite like a trip to a greenhouse.
The quickest and easiest way to start a gar-
den is to merely smother the existing lawn or
weeds. One reason most gardeners till is to
aerate the soil, but your soil won’t need aera-
tion if you lay it out in permanent planting
beds, each 36 inches wide, and paths, each 18
inches wide. Make a plan on paper, and keep
the beds and paths in the same place year after
year. Walk only on the paths; never set foot in
a bed.
If your garden is to be fenced (which is nec-
essary if rabbits or deer roam nearby), extend
the garden’s boundary about a foot outside the
fence. This gets the garden edge away from
under the fence, where weeds would become
tangled and too hard to pull.
After you have mapped out your garden,
search the Internet or Yellow Pages for local
“Compost” and “Arborists.” You want com-

Pros and cons of
organic,synthetic
garden fertilizers
By Dean Fosdick
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Another growing season is fast approach-
ing, and before you can seed you must feed.
Now is the time to decide whether to use
organic or synthetic fertilizers to enrich the
soil. They produce similar results but come
at it from different directions.
Most organic fertilizers are derived from
plants and animals. This group includes
manure, bone and blood meal, seaweed,
compost and minerals. All are rich in nutri-
ents, but must be “cured” or broken down by
bacteria before they can nurture plants and
condition soils.
Synthetic fertilizers are commercially
produced from petroleum or natural gas, and
are packaged in easy-to-apply granular or
liquid forms. They give plants a vigorous
although short-term jolt.
“Plants don’t know the difference if
you’re using a synthetic or an organic. It’s
all chemical to them,” said Valerie Locher, a
horticulturist and landscape manager from
Housatonic, Mass. “But the beauty of organ-
ics is that they’re naturally slow-release.
They’re there for the entire season.”

TRIAL
Continued from page 1
It was only that courage, coupled with
unforeseen events like a power outage that
drew teachers into the hallway where he pre-
pared to kill, that kept Hillsdale and San
Mateo from joining the ranks of Columbine,
Virginia Tech and Germany, Guidotti said.
In a closing argument that ticked off the
meticulous preparations made by Youshock,
then 17, leading up to his failed attack,
Guidotti asked jurors to put aside any sympa-
thy for the teen and focus on what he did.
“Where he went and what he took show you
he was able” to premeditate an intent to kill,
Guidotti said.
Youshock, who psychiatrists have said is
likely schizophrenic, knew how to manipulate
his parents, build and test weapons and com-
pile a plan to slice apart the teachers and any-
one else who got in his way, she said.
“If he couldn’t form intent, why didn’t he
take his pipe bombs and go to 7-Eleven?” she
asked.
What he did do, undisputed by either side,
is have his mother drop him near the school by
claiming to be filming with a friend at a near-
by, albeit nonexistent, park. He carried a chain
saw he named Collie, after Columbine, in a
soft guitar case and a backpack containing a
tactical vest with 10 pipe bombs, a 10-inch
sword, door stoppers to trap teachers, finger-
less gloves to better grip any of his six Bic
lighters and a face shield to protect himself

from blood splatter. He headed to the class-
room building housing the teachers he hated
and, according to witness testimony by teach-
ers, staff and a student, was spotted while try-
ing to start the chain saw. He threw two pipe
bombs that injured no one before being
stopped. After his arrest, officers found a
thumb drive containing a film manifesto in
which he spoke of plans to kill teachers and
leave Principal Jeff Gilbert to live with the
guilt. There were also clips of his making pipe
bombs and fuses and practicing with the chain
saw.
Key debate
Intent and Youshock’s ability to premeditate
his actions is the key debate in this phase of
trial. Defense attorney Jonathan McDougall
flatly told jurors to convict his client on sever-
al other counts, including the possession of
explosives and deadly weapons, which means
there will be a secondary sanity phase if they
comply with even those convictions.
But Youshock faces two counts of attempt-
ed murder with premeditation for planning to
specifically kill chemistry teacher Meghan
Spalding and throwing a pipe bomb at securi-
ty aide Jana Torres who responded to the
classroom building where he was ineffectual-
ly trying to start his chain saw. Both required
a different length of deliberating time,
Guidotti said, but each are enough under the
law to make him guilty.
Spalding was always meant to die while
Torres “got in his way,” Guidotti said.
Torres narrowly escaped a pipe bomb
lobbed by Youshock after responding to
FULLY LICENSED
STATE CERTIFIED
LOCALLY TRAINED
reports of the armed intruder.
In contrast, McDougall focused his closing
argument on his client’s mental state which he
said is the sole reason Youshock misinterpret-
ed his teachers’ and principal’s goading to do
homework as something that required hatred,
violence and vengeance.
“In his mind, he intended to do everything,”
McDougall said, referring to Youshock’s
months of planning, filming of a manifesto
and arrival on campus.
Yet, he added, jurors can’t weigh the pre-
meditation and deliberation required under
the law without considering the role of his
schizophrenia.
“You can’t use a reasonable person stan-
dard,” he said.
His client wasn’t a bad kid who grew into

his dark side through animal abuse and neigh-
borhood bullying, he said.
Instead, he developed schizophrenia which
left him high-functioning like Nobel Prize
winner John Nash but still sick and discon-
nected between reality and fantasy. Although
Guidotti suggested at least one doctor who
testified made up a diagnosis and another was
motivated by money, McDougall asked the
jury where the prosecution’s expert was to
deliver a different opinion.
He also reminded jurors of Youshock’s own
testimony Monday which was delivered in a
low, monotone voice.
Sanity phase anticipated
In her rebuttal, Guidotti again asked jurors
to save the debate over mental illness for the
anticipated sanity phase, saying that
Youshock’s actions are the crux of the guilt
debate.
“The defendant made a bad decision that
day but it was a decision nonetheless,” she
said.
She also said any suggestion his actions
weren’t potentially harmful or could have had
a more severe outcome demeans the experi-
ence of those left shaken even more than a
year later.
“If the defendant had had his way, it would
have been worse,” she said.
Youshock remains in custody without bail
and jurors continue deliberating today. Aside
from the seven felonies with which Youshock
is charged, jurors can also consider the lesser
charge of assault as an alternative to attempt-
ed murder.

“By its action, PG&E not only is

but worse, may be placing public safety
in jeopardy,” CPUC’s Executive

old victim was in several “online dating”
relationships with male adults, accord-
ing to police. The victim subsequently
had a sexual encounter with Lopez-
Galvez after meeting him online,
according to police.
“The suspect was the only one she had
physical contact with,” Belmont police
Lt. Pat Halleran said.
She was engaged in “flirtatious” con-
versations with others online, Halleran
said.

post for the planting beds, and wood chips
from an arborist for the paths between the
beds. (Some recycling centers give these
valuable materials away free for the haul-
ing.) Plan on spreading a 3-inch depth of
either of these materials, which works out
to about a cubic yard for every 100 square
feet needed.
Before you lay down the chips and
compost, mow or knock down existing
life-critical records in order,” Speier
wrote in a prepared statement. “It is time
for the CPUC to fine PG&E for its
incompetence ... PG&E needs to pay the
fine, fix the system and pay the price.”
Making the system safe immediately
must be PG&E’s top priority, Speier
wrote in the statement.
Depending on the commission’s vote
today, PG&E could face an evidentiary
hearing as early as March 28, said
CPUC spokesman Andrew Kotch.
The CPUC has statutory authority to
levy fines of $20,000 per violation, per
day. Multiple instances of wrongdoing
could result in fines of $1 million a day
or more.
PG&E was ordered to determine the
valid maximum allowable operating
pressure, MAOP, for certain high-risk
gas transmission pipelines using “trace-
able, verifiable and complete records”
for which the utility company was
directed to undertake an extensive
search.
The utility company reviewed more
than 1.25 million documents leading up
to the March 15 deadline, said PG&E
spokesman Joe Molica.
In a response to the CPUC from
PG&E last week, the utility company
said it took the commission’s order to be
“to identify reliable records confirming
the performance of a pressure test or the
determination of MAOP based on the
historical high operating pressure.”
But CPUC’s Executive Director Paul
Clanon said PG&E has no legitimate or
good-faith basis for that conclusion.
“As you well know, the whole purpose
of the NTSB’s urgent safety recommen-
dations, and for the commission’s direc-
tive to PG&E, was to find, to the extent
possible, a basis for setting maximum
allowable operating pressure by means
other than the grandfathering method
Sunday, volunteers will help paint
murals and clean the campus. Signup
spots remain available.
Ricky Wade’s project, on the other
hand, has filled up. He’ll be partnering
with StreetChurch, an established group
which sets up Tuesday through Thursday
at the Menlo Park train station to work
with the homeless through offers of sup-
port and donations of food and clothing.
“God’s been doing a lot in my life and
I felt I was called to serve,” said Wade,
who knows the man coordinating the
weekly effort.
While this weekend’s efforts has
enough volunteer support, StreetChurch
serves three days a week and always
needs help, said Wade.
Parishioner Joe Osorio participated
last year at the urging of his wife, who is
also involved.
Osorio, who is retired, wasn’t sure he
Following a three-month investigation
by Belmont police detectives, the case
was submitted to the San Mateo County
District Attorney’s Office and an arrest
warrant was subsequently issued for
Lopez-Galvez, on multiple charges
including unlawful sexual intercourse
with a minor, lewd or lascivious acts
with a minor and oral copulation with a
person under 16. Lopez-Galvez also
faces a special allegation based on his
age difference with the victim, Halleran
said.
The victim’s parents had no idea of the
relationship, Halleran said, until police
notified them.
“We need to warn parents that this
could be your kid,” Halleran said. “It is
weeds or lawn, then smother them
beneath paper. Use newspaper — black-
and-white pages four sheets thick — or
commercially available paper mulch, such
as Horto Paper. Wet the paper as you lay it
down to soften it and keep it from blow-
ing, and overlap the edges. Before the end
of the season, the grass or weeds will be
dead, and your plants’ roots will have
grown into and though the nearly decom-
posed paper.
The paper is needed only to start your
garden, not in future years.

described in PG&E’s response. This is
particularly inexcusable in the wake of
the tragedy at San Bruno,” Clanon wrote
in a letter to PG&E’s president.
The NTSB requested PG&E to pro-
duce detailed documents after looking
into why a 30-foot section of line 132 in
San Bruno’s Glenview neighborhood
exploded on the evening of Sept. 9.
Documents related to line 132 showed
that it had seamless welds but an NTSB
review of the pipe showed that it did,
indeed, have welds.
The inaccurate documents prompted
NTSB and then the CPUC to direct
PG&E to get its documentation in order.
But some of PG&E’s high-risk
pipelines may not have proper documen-
tation, Molica said.
Gas pipes installed before 1970, for
instance, had MAOP standards set at his-
torical highs, Molica said. And some
documents may not exist for pipes
installed before 1961, Molica said. Line
132 in San Bruno was installed in 1956.
Going forward, Molica said, the utili-
ty will replace short sections of pipeline
for safety purposes rather than test the
sections for MAOP.
The utility wants to recalculate the
MAOP on all high-risk pipelines, Molica
said. High-risk pipelines are those that
run through heavily-populated areas.
The pressure went up dramatically in
line 132 just before it exploded in San
Bruno at about 6:10 p.m., Sept. 9, leav-
ing eight dead and nearly 40 homes
completely destroyed.
“Our objective is to exceed the direc-
tive of the CPUC,” Molica said.
“Reviewing and validating will take
time.”
The CPUC meeting is 9 a.m., today,
505 Van Ness Ave., San Francisco.
could take on the volunteer day with
his other volunteer work and commit-
ments. Also a volunteer with San
Mateo Police Department, Osorio
decided last year to offer some food
and support to the officers. This year,
through the help of the Peninsula
Conflict Resolution Center, Osorio is
leading a cleanup around two apart-
ment buildings on North Amphlett
Boulevard in San Mateo on Sunday.
Spots haven’t filled up for Osorio’s
project but he has faith volunteers will
show, as long as the weather cooperates.
He’s hopeful tenants will also be willing
to lend a hand.

not necessarily isolated to girls, boys can
be victimized, too.”
To protect minors from online preda-
tors, the department encourages parents
to monitor their child’s online usage,
particularly in chat rooms.
The department also encourages par-
ents to randomly check their child’s
email.
The department also encourages par-
ents to keep the computer in a common
room in the house, rather than in a
child’s bedroom.
While electronic chat can be a great
place for children to make new friends
and discuss various topics of interest, it
is also prowled by computer-sex offend-
ers, according to police.
When planting in beds, space the plants
closer together than usually recommend-
ed. You can crowd 3 or 4 rows down each
bed because you’ll be doing all your
weeding and harvesting from the paths,
rather than having to walk between the
rows.
As soon as you lay down your compost,
while the weather is cool, plant pea, radish
and spinach seeds, onion sets, and small
plants of broccoli, lettuce and parsley.
When the weather turns reliably warm,
about when honeysuckle, wild cherry and
locust trees bloom, set out tomato and
pepper plants, and plant seeds of cucum-
bers and bush green beans.

Gadhafi forces roll back; rebels try to organize
Libyans loyal to Moammar Gadhafi shout slogans while holding up a poster of Gaddafi near Bani Walid.
U.S.pressures allies to take Libya mission
By Robert Burns
and Lolita Baldor
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The United
States turned up the pressure on
quarreling NATO allies to take
command of the air war in Libya on
Wednesday, suggesting the U.S.
could step away from its leadership
role as soon as this weekend, even
with the conflict’s outcome in
doubt.
In Congress, meanwhile, the
Republican speaker of the House
demanded that President Barack
Obama quickly spell out the
nation’s precise goals in Libya.
White House officials said Obama
would keep updating the American
people and a formal address was
possible.
Secretary of State Hillary
Rodham Clinton said order
could be resolved quickly — if

Gadhafi would just quit.
The U.S. threat to give up its
leadership of the military efforts
rang somewhat hollow, since offi-
cials said there was no absolute
deadline to hand over frontline con-
trol to other countries, or for an end
to all U.S. participation. Still, the
administration is eager to hand off
the lead role in a conflict that some
of Obama’s closest advisers resis-
ted and that is raising complaints in
Congress.
