Paniz Amirnasiri doesnt remember much
about the move from Iran to Foster City at
age 6.
She didnt speak English and does recall
the differences in food, like pizza, in the
two countries. On the other hand,
Amirnasiri traveled to the United States
with her mother and sister. Her father stayed
behind to nancially support the family.
She remembers missing him but not what it
was like to be without him for two years.
Even when chatting about it recently, she
commented, almost as an aside, that it must
have been really difcult for her mother. It
was for a good cause. Her parents wanted
their daughters to have the American Dream.
Now Amirnasiri is on track to be Aragons
valedictorian. She emphasized the role of
her family in that success.
I am eternally grateful to my parents for
every sacrice that they have made in order
to make my life as comfortable as possible.
I have experienced nothing but uncondi-
tional love from both of them, which has
undoubtedly played a huge role in making
me the person who I am today. Also, my lit-
tle sister is my best friend. Despite our six
year age difference, we continue to grow
closer, she said.
Amirnasiri, now 18, went into first grade
at Foster City Elementary School but did-
nt speak English. Shes still fluent in
Farsi but at the time was trying to learn
something new. Her mom went with
Amirnasiri to school for a bit to help with
the transition.
Trying something new then making it
part of her life seems to be a trend for
Amirnasiri.
At a young age, Amirnasiri took ballet in
a class offered through the city. After per-
forming in a school production of Aladdin
Jr., she went back to dance to take jazz
which she did for the show. Since then,
shes taken all levels of jazz classes. In
2007, Amirnasiri joined dance crew, a pro-
gram through the San Mateo Dance
Association, which allows teens to help
with warmups, choreography and as a
teachers aide to dance instructors. This fall
she took it full circle by teaching a creative
ballet class to 4- to 6-year-olds.
Amirnasiri chose to attend Aragon High
School but most of her friends from
Bowditch Middle School went to San Mateo
High School. As a result, freshman year was
lled with walking into classrooms and not
really knowing anyone. Amirnasiri didnt
let that hold her back. Instead she joined the
schools improv club and applied to be a
features writer on the school paper. Both
pushed Amirnasiri to meet people and
explore new loves.
Drama became a new love for Amirnasiri
who took classes and took part in dramatic
performances at school. Through writing
for the paper, Amirnasiri was pushed to talk
with new people. She stuck with both
throughout high school. This year,
Amirnasiri is co-editor of the newspaper.
Prior to becoming co-editor, Amirnasiri
had a summer marketing internship at the
Daily Journal (While it lasted the summer,
Amirnasiri and this reporter never crossed
paths). The experience prepared Amirnasiri
for her new business manager responsibili-
ties a challenge that included working
more with adults.
During junior year, Amirnasiri joined
Service Commission, a group that allowed
her to volunteer at school events while
socializing with friends something that
enjoyed given how busy schedules can be in
high school.
Panizs drive to succeed along with her
compassion for others allows her to move
forward towards her goal of acquiring
knowledge in an ethical way. Her presence
as a top student and her graciousness to
share with others her knowledge enhances
our schools mutual respect philosophy,

Obituary
By Paul Larson
MILLBRAE Our
countrys economic
roller-coaster ride
has been interesting
and historic for
sure, but also very
troubling for many
families whove not
been as financially stable as others.
Recently though Ive been observing a
phenomenon with those we serve at the
CHAPEL OF THE HIGHLANDS. It may
be too early to confirm, but it appears that
there is a general state of confidence with
many families, along with the decisions and
choices they make during funeral
arrangements. Yes, I know you are thinking
that confidence is not a term you would
use to coincide with funeral arrangements,
but it appears to me that people I see are
tending to be more financially assured than
during the deepest years of The Great
Recession.
They say that the two things you cant
avoid are death and taxes. With that in
mind, during the economic downturn I saw a
very noticeable sense of thrift and
prudence with a lot of families who
experienced a death during that period.
Still, those who tended to cost shop at
various funeral homes selected CHAPEL
OF THE HIGHLANDS to handle funeral or
cremation arrangements. These families
found comfort with our service, and notably
with our more economic cost structure.
Now, lately the trend with families and
their funeral choices reminds me of the days
way before the recession hit. Its not that
people are utilizing their funds differently,
spending more or spending less, but that
they are more assertive and confident when
using their wallet. Seeing this over and over
gives me a good indication that something in
the economic climate is changing compared
to not that long ago.
Even though many of our honorable
elected officials in Sacramento and
Washington D.C. appear to be as inflexible
with economic issues as always, the air of
confidence with the families Ive been
dealing with means to me that these people
are feeling less pressured financially.
It is well known that when businesses do
well they hire more employees, and when
those employees are confident they will
spend their money on goods and services.
In turn, the companies that provide goods
and services will need competent employees
to create more goods, give more services,
and so onmaking a positive circle for a
healthy economy. In relation to that, after a
long period of U.S. manufacturing jobs
being sent over-seas there is news of a
growing number of companies bringing this
work back to the United States. Real Estate
values on the Peninsula remained in a good
state during the recession, but houses here
are now in demand more than ever.
Encouraging Hopeful and Positive
are words to describe the optimistic
vibrations that people are giving off. If the
community is becoming more comfortable
with spending, that indicates good health for
business and the enrichment of our
economic atmosphere. I hope Im right, so
lets all keep our fingers crossed.
If you ever wish to discuss cremation,
funeral matters or want to make pre-
planning arrangements please feel free to
call me and my staff at the CHAPEL OF
THE HIGHLANDS in Millbrae at (650)
588-5116 and we will be happy to guide you
in a fair and helpful manner. For more info

Anew 400-room luxury hotel is
among the proposals put forward
in a $4.1 billion, 10-year capital
improvement plan for San
Francisco International Airport,
city and airport officials
announced Monday.
The capital plan, which includes
the renovation of Terminals 1 and
3 among other improvements, was
voted on by the San Francisco
International Airport Commission
at its meeting yesterday.
The plan is a strong demon-
stration of our airport thinking
ahead, said San Francisco Mayor
Ed Lee. We need to make sure this
engine of economic opportunity
keeps working for everybody.
The new hotel, which would be
located near the entrance to the
airport off of Highway 101, will
be completed in about four years
and will connect to SFOs AirTrain
tram system, airport director John
Martin said.
The various projects are expect-
ed to create more than 36,000
jobs over the next decade. Martin
said bonds from revenue collected
at the airport are funding the proj-
ects, including nearly $100 mil-
lion annually from rental car com-
panies and parking fees.
Mondays announcements were
made at a news conference in
Boarding Area E at Terminal 3,
which is currently undergoi ng
construction. Boarding Area E is
expected to be complete in early
2014, while the terminals main
checkpoint will be nished later
that year, Martin said.
Although the airport is owned
by the city of San Francisco, it is
located in San Mateo County and
is a key economic engine for its
Peninsula residents, county
Supervisor Dave Pine said.
Were thrilled to see the airport
continue to modernize, Pine said.
SFO is the Bay Areas largest
airport, handling about 44 mil-
lion visitors annually and offer-
ing non-stop ights to 76 U.S.
cities and 31 international desti-
nations.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
The public gets its rst look this
week at revamped plans for the
Transit Village mixed-use project
around the historic San Carlos train
station.
Developer Legacy Partners sub-
mitted new designs for the debated
plan last week but held off sharing
too many details about the tweaks
until the community could see it
with its own eyes.
[W]e want to make sure that
folks throughout the community
have an opportunity to view the
architectural elevations and site
plan now under consideration by
the citys Planning Department,
said Jeff Byrd, senior managing
director of Legacy Partners, in a
prepared statement.
Legacy is making a presentation
tonight to the Greater East San
Carlos neighborhood group repre-
senting residents living closest to
the project and who have sat in 11
mediation sessions with the devel-
oper, city and property owner
SamTrans.
The two public meetings for the
greater audience are scheduled for
Thursday, May 30 and Wednesday,
June 12 at the city library.
Although Legacy has remained
rather quiet on specics, Byrd did
say previously that the new plan
calls for dramatically smaller
fourth oors on the eight buildings
in response to height and mass
concerns by GESC members.
The original proposal called for
converting a 10.53-acre strip of
land within the existing Caltrain
station into eight four-story
407,298-square-foot buildings
with 281 housing units among a
mix of 23,797 square feet of ofces
and 14,326 square feet of retail
space. The project would also
include 667 parking spaces and a
new Transit Center on 4.29 acres.
The Planning Commission and
City Council have both approved
the projects environmental impact
report and the two bodies will now
take up the actual merits of the
plan.
The public meetings are 7 p.m.
to 9 p.m. Thursday, May 30 and
Wednesday, June 12 at the San

The second of two men accused

no more than four years in prison.
Prosecutors also dropped drug

Daniel Victor
Nerio, 40, of
San Mateo,
pleaded no con-
test to second-
degree robbery
last month and
faces up to two
years prison
when sentenced
June 6.
Both men were arrested the
morning of Aug. 22, 2011 after
reportedly robbing the Circle K
gas station at 28th Avenue and El
Camino Real in San Mateo. While
Nerio waited in front of the sta-
tion, Hernandez allegedly entered
the back ofce with his face cov-
ered by a bandanna and clutching a
gun. He pushed the manager to the
ground and demanded money
before taking $220 in petty cash
from the vault and eeing with
Nerio, according to the District
Attorneys Ofce.
With the help of a sharp-eyed
firefighter, responding officers
caught both men nearby with the
money and gun. Hernandez also
allegedly had in his possession
.15 grams of methamphetamine
and a pipe.
Hernandez has a 2005 convic-
tion for discharging a rearm.
Hernandez is free from custody

DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
What gets measured, gets managed.
Thats the philosophy that inspired
Sustainable San Mateo County to
begin its indicators report, said
Executive Director Adrienne Etherton
to a group of government and nonprof-
it workers Tuesday.
This week, SSMC launched its 2013
report, which offers a comprehensive
look at factors that affect the county
and individual cities. The indicators
are a range of statistics on aspects
from land usage and health insurance
to carbon emissions and employment.
When the indicators report began 17
years ago, volunteers had to explain to
the community what sustainability
meant, said longtime SSMC Board
Member Beth Bhatnagar. And now
everyone thinks they know exactly
what sustainability means, she said.
Most people think of sustainabili-
ty in terms of the environment and
thats it, she said.
But community sustainability is
much broader. It is also dependent
upon the economy and social equity,
she said.
The indicators report allows for the
public to easily access information on
items such as water usage and average
commuter distances. Government of-
cials and Realtors use these gures to
know the ins and outs of their commu-
nities.
Something will come up about
transportation, about child care, and
they can refer to it, said Bhatnagar.
The report is focused on three Es:
environment, equity and economy
which are deeply intertwined.
Bhatnagar described a dentist in Half
Moon Bay who recently won an SSMC
sustainability award. His dental work
for low-income kids is an integral part
of creating a sustainable community,
she said.
It helps kids get a good education,
she said. How are you going to get a
good job if you are missing your front
teeth?
This years report highlighted
income inequality in the county.
Income inequality impacts health,
education, corruption, social mobility
and other issues, said lead researcher
Tanja Srebotnjak, Ph.D., with the
Ecologic Institute.
Its not just about the money, its
about creating fair chances and lasting
prosperity, she said.
About 95 percent of the data in the
report is aggregated by volunteers who
compile census, state, county and city
data. The volunteers, who are high
school students and adults, are each
assigned a specic indicator such as
pesticides, said Srebotnjak. The vol-
unteer is then assigned to do the
research on pesticide use in the county
and then tell a story about what the real
implications of pesticide use are for
the community.
Some county statistics are already
accessible online, but what SSMCs
report does is make comparisons
across cities on issues like education
funding.
This years report reveals the gaping
difference in per-pupil school funding
among cities: ranging from $7,299 in
the Millbrae Elementary School
District to $17,962 in the Woodside
Elementary School District.
It really is about closing the
achievement gap so that race and
zip code do not determine destiny,
said Gary Wadell, deputy superintend-
ent in the San Mateo County Ofce of
Education.
Sustainability indicators in the
report also inform nonprots working
to provide basic needs. The Samaritan
House uses SSMCs indicators for
fundraising and educating the public,
said Executive Director Kitty Lopez.
There is a disconnect between the
federal poverty level and San Mateo
Countys level, she said. Many people
think they are doing OK because they
are making $50,000 annually.
By looking at the Federal Poverty
Level, that would seem to be true. For a
family of three, the poverty level is an
annual income of $18,530.
Most clients of Samaritan House are
well below this poverty level. But the
SSMC report shows a different measure
that takes into account the fact that
San Mateo County has one of the high-
est costs of living in the country.
The reports self-sufciency stan-
dard for a family of three in San Mateo
County is a far cry from the federal
standard: $72,893.
Most of our staff members would t
below that self-sufciency standard,
said Lopez.
Unlike the poor populations in San
Francisco, San Mateo Countys
impoverished are not as visible. But

Early vote points to
close race as L.A. picks mayor
LOS ANGELES An early count
of mail-in ballots Tuesday pointed
to a close race for Los Angeles
mayor.
The tally pegged city
Councilman Eric Garcetti at 49 per-
cent and city Controller Wendy
Greuel at 51 percent, with about
2,400 votes separating them out of
more than 130,000 counted in the
mayors contest.
As much as half the vote is
expected to come from mail-in bal-
lots. The vote from precincts
around the city will be released
later Tuesday. Despite record
spending on the campaign, turnout
at polls appeared sluggish.
The two City Hall regulars failed
to bring much sparkle to the con-
test to succeed Mayor Antonio
Villaraigosa, who exits ofce July
1 after two up-and-down terms.
GOP seeks win in Central
Valley state Senate race
SACRAMENTO The lone
Republican and a Democrat favored
by party leaders were leading a eld
of ve candidates in a hotly con-
tested Central Valley state Senate
contest in early returns Tuesday.
Republicans are trying to win
what has been a Democratic state
Senate seat in one of the two spe-
cial legislative elections being
held Tuesday, a potential coup that
would eat into the supermajority
that Democrats won just six
months ago.
Democrat Michael Rubio of
Bakerseld resigned the southern
San Joaquin Valley seat in February
to work for Chevron, giving
Republicans a chance to win it
against a crowded Democratic eld.

MOORE, Okla. Helmeted res-
cue workers raced Tuesday to com-
plete the search for survivors and
the dead in the Oklahoma City
suburb where a mammoth tornado
destroyed countless homes,
cleared lots down to bare red earth
and claimed 24 lives, including
those of nine children.
Scientists concluded the storm
was a rare and extraordinarily pow-
erful type of twister known as an
EF5, ranking it at the top of the
scale used to measure tornado
strength. Those twisters are capa-
ble of lifting reinforced buildings
off the ground, hurling cars like
missiles and stripping trees com-
pletely free of bark.
Residents of Moore began
returning to their homes a day
after the tornado smashed some
neighborhoods into jagged wood
scraps and gnarled pieces of metal.
In place of their houses, many
families found only empty lots.
After nearly 24 hours of search-
ing, the re chief said he was con-
dent there were no more bodies or
survivors in the rubble.
Im 98 percent sure were
good, Gary Bird said at a news
conference with the governor,
who had just completed an aerial
tour of the disaster zone.
Authorities were so focused on
the search effort that they had yet
to establish the full scope of dam-
age along the storms long,
ruinous path.
They did not know how many
homes were gone or how many
families had been displaced.
Emergency crews had trouble nav-
igating devastated neighborhoods
because there were no street signs
left. Some rescuers used smart-
phones or GPS devices to guide
them through areas with no recog-
nizable landmarks.
The death toll was revised down-
ward from 51 after the state med-
ical examiner said some victims
may have been counted twice in
the confusion. More than 200
people were treated at area hospi-
tals.
By Tuesday afternoon, every
damaged home had been searched
at least once, Bird said. His goal
was to conduct three searches of
each building just to be certain
there were no more bodies or sur-
vivors.
The re chief was hopeful that
could be completed before night-
fall, but the work was being ham-
pered by heavy rain. Crews also
continued a brick-by-brick search
of the rubble of a school that was
blown apart with many children
inside.
No additional survivors or bod-
ies have been found since Monday
night, Bird said.
Survivors emerged with harrow-
ing accounts of the storms wrath,
which many endured as they
shielded loved ones.
Chelsie McCumber grabbed her
2-year-old son, Ethan, wrapped
him in jackets and covered him
with a mattress before they
squeezed into a coat closet of their
house. McCumber sang to her
child when he complained it was
getting hot inside the small
space.

WASHINGTON Summoned by
Congress, a key figure in the
Internal Revenue Services target-
ing of conservative groups plans
to invoke her constitutional right
against self-incrimination and
decline to testify at a congression-
al hearing on Wednesday.
Lois Lerner heads the IRS divi-
sion that singled out conservative
groups for additional scrutiny
when they applied for tax-exempt
status during the 2010 and 2012
election campaigns. She was sub-
poenaed to testify Wednesday
before the House oversight com-
mittee.
But in a letter to committee lead-
ers, Lerners lawyer said she would
refuse to testify because of a crim-
inal investigation by the Justice
Department.
Among the harsher Republican
comments after the IRS targeting
was revealed last week, House
Speaker John Boehner said he
wanted to know, Whos going to
jail over this scandal? Lerners
Washington lawyer, William W.
Taylor III, said Tuesday that his
client has not committed any
crime or made any misrepresenta-
tion, but under the circumstances
she has no choice but to take this
course.

George J. Blondino
September 21, 1913 May 8, 2013
Resident of Carmichael, CA
George J. Blondino Beloved husband of
Lillian Blondino his wife of 72 years who
passed in 2008, beloved father of George
S. Blondino of El Dorado Hills and Doreen
Foote of Dunnigan, California, and loving
father-in-law of Leona V. Blondino and
Richard Foote. He was the loving grandfather
to Denise Urdahl, Annette Foote, Dennis
Foote, Michael Blondino, Vicki Blondino,
Stacie Enns, and 14 great grandchildren and
4 great-great grandchildren. George was a
native of San Francisco and lived in Redwood City for over 53 years before moving
to Carmichael, California where he resided at Carmichael Oaks an Assisted Living
facility. Georges move to Carmichael Oaks was so that he could be close to a
convalescent facility where he was able to visit and care for his wife. His daily
visit to his wife, who was suffering from dementia, was inspirational to the entire
Blondino family.
He was a kind, gentle man, who worked hard his entire life to support his young
family, especially during the Depression years by taking on any job he could
find. The struggled ended when he was employed by the City and County of San
Francisco where he retired at the age of 59. He also worked as a personal trainer
on a part time basis at Dennis Nelsons Health Club in Redwood City. He spent
his retirement years traveling with his wife Lillian visiting many tourist locations
in the Western United States, and family in Friday Harbor, Washington. Theyre
favorite vacation spot was to the beautiful island of Maui, Hawaii.
Remembering George: So when you think of his smile, and his laugh, especially
after a good story, may you be reminded of all the good times we shared with him.
When you talk about the kind of person he was, you will feel even prouder than ever.
And when you hear all the stories people tell about him, it will bring you an even
richer understanding of how much he meant to everyone lucky enough to know him.
As a remembrance to George his family wishes that any donations in his memory be
made to The George Blondino Youth Baseball Fund, C/O the Silicon Valley Community
Foundation, 2440 West El Camino Real, Suite 300, Mountain View, California, 94040-

Local brief
By David Espo and Erica Werner
WASHINGTON Far-reaching legislation
that grants a chance at citizenship to millions
of immigrants living illegally in the United
States cleared the Senate Judiciary Committee
on a solid bipartisan vote Tuesday night after
supporters somberly sidestepped a controver-
sy over the rights of gay spouses.
The 13-5 vote cleared the way for an epic
showdown on the Senate oor on legislation
that is one of President Barack Obamas top
domestic priorities yet also gives the
Republican Party a chance to recast itself as
more appealing to minorities.
The action sparked rejoicing from immigra-
tion activists who crowded into a Senate com-
mittee room to witness the proceedings.
Yes, we can! Si, se puede they shouted,
reprising the campaign cry from Obamas rst
run for the White House in 2008.
In addition to creating a pathway to citizen-
ship for 11.5 million immigrants, the legis-
lation creates a new program for low-skilled
foreign labor and would permit highly skilled
workers into the country at far higher levels
than is currently the case.
At the same time, it requires the govern-
ment to take costly new
steps to guard against
future illegal immigra-
tion.
In a statement, Obama
said the measure is large-
ly consistent with the
principles of common-
sense reform I have pro-
posed and meets the chal-
lenge of xing our broken
immigration system.
There was suspense to the end of the com-
mittees deliberations, when Sen. Patrick
Leahy, the Vermont Democrat who serves as
chairman, sparked a debate over his proposal
to give same-sex and heterosexual spouses
equal rights under immigration law.
I dont want to be the senator who asks
people to choose between the love of their
life and the love of their country, he said,
adding he wanted to hear from others on the
committee.
In response, he heard a chorus of pleas from
the bills supporters, seconding private
appeals from the White House, not to force a
vote that they warned would lead to the col-
lapse of Republican support and the bills
demise.
Obama OK punting
gay immigration idea
WASHINGTON Two people familiar
with the Senate immigration deliberations
say the White House has suggested to
Vermont Sen. Patrick Leahy that it would be
best to put off a controversy over gay mar-
riage until a bill goes before the full Senate.
President Barack Obama backs the pro-
posal to give equal treatment to gays and
lesbians, but is unlikely to veto a broad
immigration bill that does not include the
provision.
Leahy, the Democratic chair of the
Judiciary Committee, has not yet said
whether he will seek a vote on the provision
in committee. He could raise the issue again
if the bill goes before the full Senate.
The people familiar with the deliberations
were not authorized to discuss the matter
publicly and insisted on anonymity. The
White House had no comment.
FBI IDs Benghazi
suspects but no arrests yet
WASHINGTON The U.S. has identied
ve men who might be responsible for the
attack on the diplomatic mission in
Benghazi, Libya, last year, and has enough
evidence to justify seizing them by military
force as suspected terrorists, ofcials say.
But there isnt enough proof to try them in a
U.S. civilian court as the Obama administra-
tion prefers.

OPINION 9
Hoarding misunderstood
Editor,
As expected, my point of question-
ing the social acceptability of exces-
sive money hoarding in my letter,
Anti-social hoarding, in the May 8
edition of the Daily Journal, would be
grossly misunderstood by some. I
implied that there ought to be some
cost as a disincentive for keeping
excess money idle, instead of letting
it circulate in the economy, which is
the intended function of government-
supplied money.
In Warren Gibsons letter,
Hoarding is not anti-social, in the
May 10 edition of the Daily Journal,
Gibson advances the amusing theory
that keeping money out of circulation
keeps prices down. Such funny logic
must mean that those with enough
money to stash away would buy and
drink more milk, or eat more broc-
coli, and thus drive those prices up, if
they spent more of their money. Why
not buy consumer goods or invest
instead, stimulate the economy and
create jobs? That benets everybody
in a society, including those already
rich and able to acquire or buy and eat
what they desire.
Harry Roussard in his letter,
Response to Anti-social hoard-
ing? in the May 13 edition of the
Daily Journal, Roussard claims that
the owner of money can do exactly
what he wants with it, obviously
ignorant of Title 18, Section 333 of
the United States Code, which speci-
es penalties for the violation of
burning money. If it were yours, you
could burn it, literally. Finally,
thanks for the Mars travel sugges-
tion, Roussard! At least thats a real
destination, as opposed to the very
hot gment of imagination I have
been recommended to go to on a few
other occasions, when my letters
rubbed someone the wrong way, or
simply rattled preconceived ideas.

Letter to the editor
By Charles Stone
Belmont is home to a large and
diverse community of top-notch pub-
lic and private schools offering pre-K
through graduate programs. Our city
presents a host of amazing options at
every level, including nationally
renowned Carlmont High School and
Notre Dame de Namur University,
enabling us to legitimately claim the
title, the Education City.
Acitys relationship with its educa-
tion partners is symbiotic. Great
schools attract thriving families and
draw students from other cities into
our town along with consumer dollars
for our shops and businesses. But our
schools need our support to meet, and
surpass, our high expectations. Our
leaders and residents must embrace our
education community and treat our
public and private schools as integral
members of the Belmont family.
To succeed, we need Ohana.
Literally translated, Ohana means
family, but the word means some-
thing much deeper. Ohana is a
broader understanding of family and
extends to embrace those that are
intertwined in a community. The term
emphasizes that these families are
bound together by interrelationships
and must cooperate with and remem-
ber one another to prosper.
Athriving education community is
an integral part of Belmont.
Sometimes, our existing education
partners will need to rebuild or
expand. When this happens, they
need engaged partners willing to work
hand in hand with them to nd solu-
tions that accommodate their needs
while preserving our open space and
suburban character. And when out-
standing new schools choose
Belmont as a
home, we must
weigh their pro-
posals fairly and
thoughtfully with
Ohana in mind.
The Belmont-
Redwood Shores
Elementary School
District provides
education for a growing number of
Belmonts residents (this year enroll-
ment was almost 3,600 students). The
district is made up of six unique ele-
mentary schools (Redwood Shores,
Cipriani, Central, Fox, Nesbit and
Sandpiper) and one top-notch middle
school. Each of our schools has
excellent statewide testing scores but,
more importantly, each offers a nur-
turing environment rich in the spirit
of Ohana. Each of our schools has
succeeded in creating a family led by
hard-working administrators and sup-
ported by dedicated staff, inspiring
teachers and involved parents.
But our public schools are facing
challenges. While education funding
has been steadily decreasing, the dis-
tricts enrollment has been steadily
increasing. Because the district has
been basic aid, it has not received
any additional funds for the additional
students. The district can only contin-
ue to meet our communitys standards
(and continue to attract successful
families looking for high-quality
public education) if the broader com-
munity demonstrates Ohana.
With that spirit, I note that the
week of May 20-24 is School-Force
(our education foundation) week in the
district. I invite everyone who lives
in Belmont and Redwood Shores,
whether they have children in our
public schools or not, to visit
schoolforce.org and donate. Help us
keep our libraries and arts programs
intact. Even a small amount can make
a large impact as all donations stay
here in our district.
We must also remember to nurture
the private school members of
Belmonts education community.
Serendipity, Notre Dame Elementary,
Belmont Oaks, IHM, Notre Dame
High School, Charles Armstrong and
NDNU are all important parts of the
educational fabric of Belmont. Our
leaders and community must include
them in our vision for the future and
help them succeed wherever and when-
ever possible.
We all have a vested interest in our
schools because we all benet from
students who will grow into well-
informed, involved, ethical and suc-
cessful young women and men.
Strengthening these bonds that
already tie us together can only lead
to better outcomes. Working together
to help our public and private schools
continue to shine will help ensure
that the Belmont of tomorrow truly is
a better Belmont.

Ohana Choosing a path?
S
o we have no choice about whether to change
the world. We are changing it every day. The
choice is only whether our acts contribute to
the world we want or not. Francis Moore Lappe, Eco-
Mind.
In my April 24 column, dedicated to Earth Day, I men-
tioned the difference between the having mode and the
being mode of living. If you read that one, you may be
thinking, What would have
to change about attitudes,
values and lifestyles to pre-
vent complete environmen-
tal disaster? Is there any way
the headlong thrust to catas-
trophe could at least be
slowed?
There is, but it might not
be what you (and corporate
interests) want to hear. A
great many of us would have
to lead a lifestyle based on
political activism and volun-
tary simplicity that stems
from the belief that being i s
much more conducive to our well-being than having. It is
making our legislators know that we do not consider put-
ting environmental issues to committee for study, passing
laws that are not enforced and looking the other way when
the environment is decimated by industrial and technolog-
ical practices as evidence of their environmental concern.
We must let them know that instead of merely attempt-
ing to alleviate the damage of toxic pollutants after they
have become part of the environment they must demand
prevention such as Barry Commoner describes: sweeping
changes in the major systems of production, agriculture,
industry, power production and transportation undertaken
for a social purpose environmental improvement. We
then begin by living by a new set of values based upon a
theology of humanity instead of the religion of technolo-
gy.
The mother of all issues is removing the power of con-
centrated wealth from public decision making and infus-
ing citizens voices instead. Lappe.
If we were to live a life of voluntary simplicity, we will
act not for our own selsh interests, but according to what
is best for all. Seemingly paradoxical, we will do this best
by developing our own inner resources and building our
feeling of self-worth so we become free of our protections
and addictions. We will be aware at all times that every-
thing we do will either contribute to our own and our soci-
etys growth or destruction and live accordingly. As a
result, we will thoughtfully consume, resist articially
created needs always sensitive to the effect our
lifestyles can have on our natural environment.
We will be concerned with living our lives in harmony
with the universe, growing and evolving, as we learn to
trust our gut feelings and intuition. Our attitude will be
one of cooperation, not competition; reverence for nature
and life, not rapaciousness. As Wendell Berry wrote, To
cherish what remains of the Earth and to foster its renewal
is our only legitimate hope for survival.
We will sense our oneness with all life. We will no
longer buy into the idea that we must conquer, subdue,
exploit and destroy nature, but encourage understanding
and cooperation with nature. We will become involved
with something larger than our own life a social issue,
a political movement, a cultural concern and through
our commitment to one or more of these, nd a sense of
purpose that helps ll the spiritual void that so many try
to ll with the accumulation of things and experiences,
hero worship, and/or mindless activity.
We can continue to follow the path (we have set for
ourselves) blocking out our feelings of frustration, anxi-
ety and powerlessness through the isolated pursuit of
pleasure and make the predictions of gloom a self-full l-
ing prophecy. Or we can begin to transform ourselves
from a selsh culture, characterized by avaricious distrust
of the self and others, into a self-directed culture, one in
which, by virtue of depending on our own resources and
nding satisfaction in them, we nd even greater full l-
ment by sharing our resources with others and concerning
ourselves with the common good, wrote Maxine Schnall
in Limits.
The having mode is acquiring, holding, possessive,
consuming, controlling, conning, greedy, acquisitive,
covetous, manipulative, stressful. The being mode is giv-
ing, sharing, creative, alive, open, spontaneous, intu-
itive, expansive, sensitive, straightforward, more relaxed.
As Erich Fromm tells us in To Have or To Be, Joy is the
fruit of giving up having, while sadness is the mood of
the one who hangs onto possessions.
Of course, it is only proper that people, like all living
things, should strive to make a livable place for them-
selves in the world. Who can imagine it otherwise? But
the state of soul in which we undertake the project that
is what makes the difference. Theodore Roszak,

NEW YORK Reassuring com-
ments from a Federal Reserve ofcial
and better earnings from two big
retailers helped push the stock market
higher Tuesday.
Stock indexes wobbled between
gains and losses in early trading, then
took a turn higher just before noon.
Thats when news crossed that James
Bullard, head of the Feds St. Louis
branch, told an audience in Germany
that the Fed ought to stick with its
bond-buying effort to bolster the eco-
nomic recovery.
Those words were a salve for
investors nerves, said Lawrence
Creatura, a fund manager at Federated
Investors. Other Fed officials have
recently talked about scaling back the
program. Theres a lot of uncertainty
surrounding this issue. And uncertain-
ty and investors arent always a happy
match.
The Dow Jones industrial average
rose 52.30 points to 15,387.58, a
gain of 0.3 percent.
The Standard & Poors 500 index
edged up 2.87 points to 1,669.16, a
slight increase of 0.2 percent. Both
the Dow and the S&P are at record
highs.
J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. gained 1.4
percent. Shareholders of the countrys
biggest bank voted to allow Jamie
Dimon to keep his two titles, CEO and
chairman of the board. Groups had
pushed to split the two jobs, a drive
that gained momentum from a multi-
billion trading loss last year. The
banks stock rose 73 cents to $53.02.
Many investors were already look-
ing ahead to Wednesday, when the
Federal Reserve will release minutes
from its most recent policy meeting,
and Chairman Ben Bernanke will go
before Congress to discuss his out-
look for the U.S. economy.
I think a lot of people are sitting
on their hands waiting to see what the
Fed says tomorrow, said Michael
Binger, senior portfolio manager at
Gradient Investments in Minneapolis,
Minn.
Money managers keep close tabs on
speeches from Fed ofcials and min-
utes from Fed meetings for any sign
the Fed is planning to make a move.
Binger said their words take on added
weight because some investors
believe the Feds support is a crucial
reason the stock market has soared to
an all-time high. If the Fed pulls back,
they think the markets epic rally
could come to an end.
But Binger doesnt share t hat
view. He believes a rise in busi-
ness spending and stronger sales
t o emergi ng market s may hel p
dri ve earni ngs hi gher, whi ch
would push stocks up, too.
In other trading, the Nasdaq com-
posite rose 5.69 points to 3,502.12, a
0.2 percent gain.
The Dow has gained for 19 straight
Tuesdays. The only day with a longer
streak of consecutive gains is
Wednesday, with 24 back in 1968,
according to Schaeffers Investment
Research.
Home Depot surged 2.5 percent. It
reported an 18 percent increase in
quarterly income as the housing mar-
ket continues to recover. Home Depot
rose $1.95 to $78.71.
Among other companies posting
quarterly results, AutoZone jumped 5
percent. Better sales and shrinking
costs helped the auto-parts company
beat analysts earnings forecasts.
AutoZone leapt $18.79 to $427.84.
It has been another solid earnings
season for big companies, with cor-
porate prots hitting all-time highs
even as revenue barely rises.
Seven of 10 companies in the S&P
500 have trumped Wall Streets earn-
ings forecasts, according to S&P
Capital IQ. First-quarter earnings are
on track to rise 5 percent over the
same period last year. Revenue is
expected to rise just 1 percent.
In the market for U.S. government
bonds, the yield on the 10-year
Treasury note slipped to 1.93 percent
from 1.96 percent late Monday.

Big movers

WASHINGTON The Senate dragged
Apple Inc., the worlds most valuable com-
pany, into the debate over the U.S. tax code
Tuesday, grilling CEO Tim Cook over alle-
gations that its Irish subsidiaries help the
company avoid billions in U.S. taxes.
Cook said the subsidiaries have nothing
to do with reducing its U.S. taxes, a mes-
sage he struggled to convey to the Senate
Permanent Subcommittee on
Investigations.
We pay all the taxes we owe every sin-
gle dollar, Cook said.
We dont depend on tax
gimmicks.
The senate subcommit-
tee released a report
Monday that held up
Apple as an example of
the legal tax avoidance
made possible by the
U.S. tax code. It esti-
mates that Apple avoided
at least $3.5 billion in U.S. federal taxes in
2011 and $9 billion in 2012 by using its
tax strategy, and described a complex setup
involving Irish subsidiaries as being a key
element of this strategy.
But Cook said the Irish subsidiaries dont
reduce the companys U.S. taxes at all.
Rather, the company avoids paying the 35
percent federal tax rate on prots made over-
seas by not bringing those prots back to
the U.S., a practice it shares with other
multinationals.
Apples enormous, iPhone-fueled prot s
mean that it has more cash stashed overseas
than any other company: $102 billion.
Cook reaffirmed Apples position that
given the current U.S. tax rate, it has no
intention of bringing that cash back to the
U.S. Like other companies, it has a respon-
sibility to shareholders to pay as little as
possible in taxes.
In effect, Apple is holding out for a lower
corporate tax rate, and Cook spent some of
his time in the spotlight to advocate for
one, accompanied by a streamlining of the
tax code to eliminate deductions and credits.
Cook, who is more accustomed to com-
manding a stage in front of investors and
techies than facing a congressional com-
mittee, took a defensive tone with his open-
ing statement. He punched out words when
stressing the 600,000 jobs that the compa-
ny supports while adding that Apple is the
nations largest corporate taxpayer.

Poll: Teens migrating to Twitter
WASHINGTON Twitter is booming as a social media
destination for teenagers who complain about too many
adults and too much drama on Facebook, according to a
new study published Tuesday about online behavior. It
said teens are sharing more personal information about
themselves even as they try to protect their online repu-
tations.
Teens told researchers there were too many adults on
Facebook and too much sharing of teenage angst and
inane details like what a friend ate for dinner.
The key is that there are fewer adults, fewer parents and
just simply less complexity, said Amanda Lenhart of the
Pew Research Center, one of the studys authors. They
still have their Facebook proles, but they spend less
time on them and move to places like Twitter, Instagram
and Tumblr.
In the poll, 94 percent of teens who are social media
users have a prole on Facebook at from the previous
year. Twenty-six percent of teen social media users were
on Twitter. Thats more than double the gure in 2011 of
12 percent.
Microsoft touts Xbox
One as all-in-one entertainment
REDMOND, Wash. Microsoft thinks it has the one.
The company unveiled the Xbox One, a next-generation
entertainment console that promises to be the one system
households will need for games, television, movies and
other entertainment. It will go on sale later this year.
Don Mattrick, Microsofts president of interactive
entertainment business, said the company has spent the
past four years working on the all-in-one home enter-
tainment system.
The console was demonstrated Tuesday at Microsofts
Redmond, Wash., headquarters using voice control to
seamlessly switch back and forth between watching live
TV, listening to music, watching a movie, browsing the
Internet, as well as simultaneously running apps.

MESSIN WITH TEXAS: AS TAKE SERIES FROM RANGERS WITH 1-0 SHUTOUT >> PAGE 12
By Josh Dubow
SAN JOSE Joe Thornton set the tone
for the San Jose Sharks with a dominant
rst period. After that, the Sharks did their
best to hang on and tie up their playoff
series against the Los Angeles Kings.
Thornton set up Brent Burns first-peri-
od goal and Logan Couture added a power-
play goal early in the second to give the
Sharks just enough offense to beat the
Kings 2-1 Tuesday night to knot their
series at two games.
Hes our leader for a reason, Burns said
of Thornton. Everybody keeps saying it.
Hes one of the hardest workers we have in
here. Its awesome to play with him when
hes playing like that. Its a lot of fun.
The Sharks outshot the Kings 15-3 in the
opening period before falling into a shell
the second half of the game, managing just
four shots in the nal 36:05 after taking a
2-0 lead.
Antti Niemi made 13 of his 22 saves in
the third period to help the Sharks match
Los Angeles two home wins to open the
series with two of their own.
In the third its typical, unfortunately
the way it goes, usually teams are a little bit
on their heels and the other team is pressur-
ing, and youre just trying to nd a way,
defenseman Dan Boyle said.
Obviously thats not the way we want to
play, but thats the way it happens. Awins
a win. Thats what Ive been talking about.
Were in a good place right now, and its
only going to get harder.
Mike Richards scored a power-play goal
and Jonathan Quick made 21 saves for the
Kings, who have lost 10 of 11 road games
dating to the end of the regular season.
Game 5 is Thursday night in Los Angeles
when the Sharks will look to end a streak of
four straight wins by the home team in this
series.
We knew going into this series wed
have to win one game at Staples Center if
we want to win this series, Couture said.
Weve done our job at home. We need to go

SAN JOSE When Menlo School left
elder Will King squeezed a y ball for the
last out of the game, the Knights bench
came spilling out onto the eld for a mini-
celebration.
And why not? The fth-seeded Knights had
just knocked off top-seeded Palma 4-3 in
eight innings in a Central Coast Section
Division III semifinal game at San Jose
Municipal Stadium Tuesday night.
We went out expecting to win, said
Menlo manager Craig Schoof. But no one
else expected us to win.
With the win, the Knights advance to their
fourth-straight CCS championship game.
Theyll face No. 2-seed Pacic Grove, which
crushed Stevenson 10-3.
After seeing the Chieftains rally from a
two-run decit with a two-run bottom of the
sixth to tie the game at 3, the Knights
retook the lead in the top of the eighth
inning, scoring an unearned run. After
Graham Stratford reached base on a elders
choice, King walked to bring up Jared
Lucian. He hit a grounder to shortstop, who
rst bobbled the ball and then threw wide to
rst base, allowing Lucian to score the go-
ahead run, putting Menlo up 4-3. The
Knights went on to load the bases, but only
came away with the one run.
They threw the ball away, Schoof said.
We put the pressure on them and they could-
nt make the play.
That was enough for Menlo pitcher Jack
Redman, even though Palma put the pressure
on him and the Menlo defense. Palmas lead-
off hitter in the bottom of the eighth,
cleanup hitter Cameron Neff, worked the
count full before lifting a long y ball to the
gap in right-center eld. Stratford went a
long way to make a play on the ball, only to
come up short and Neff was standing on sec-
ond with a leadoff double.
On a ball he catches 95 percent of the
time, Schoof said.
The last time Palma had an extra-base hit,
the Chieftains parlayed it into two runs in
the sixth. There would be no comeback this

There wasnt a whole lot of Half Moon
Bay offense during Tuesdays Central Coast
Section Division III seminal against No. 3
Soquel.
But there was plenty of Lyndsay
Klimenko. And when you are the 2013
Cougars, thats usually good for a win.
That was the case at San Joses PAL
Stadium as Half Moon Bay advanced to the
DIII championship game with a 2-0 win
over the Knights. Klimenko was huge for
the Cougars. She pitched a complete game
shutout, striking out nine, and it was her hit
in the bottom of the third that plated Celina
Rudorfer with what would end up being the
winning run.
I would say, especially today, our pitch-
ing was solid, said Half Moon Bay manag-
er Deanna Rocha. We were a bit shaky on
Saturday (against Carmel) and our offense
was a little shaky, not so condent on
Saturday. And coming in today, thats what
weve been working on the one day of prac-
tice we had the mental aspect of the
game. Going up to bat condent and being
on the mound nice and relaxed.
No one was more in that zone than
Klimenko. After weathering storm after
storm against Carmel last Saturday to the
tune of 11 hits surrendered No. 12 was in
a completely different groove. She allowed
just four hits, walked no one (but did hit a
batter) and played great defense in the circle
as well.
Honestly, it has to be about my defense,
Klimenko said of her pitching success on
Tuesday. Im condent knowing, hey, if
they put it in play, theyre going to get it.
So, its not so much stress on myself. And
my battery mate, Harlee (Donovan), my
catcher, she puts the glove where I want it.
Shell catch it, shell catch foul tips, so I

ALAMEDA Charles Woodson is com-
ing back home to Oakland.
Woodson signed a one-year contract with
the Raiders on Tuesday to return to his orig-
inal team after leaving seven years ago for
Green Bay as a free agent.
The move will be widely popular with
Raiders fans, many of whom staked out the
teams facility on Tuesday to greet
Woodson on his visit and urge him to sign
with the team.
They got their wish a
few hours after he arrived
when the team announced
his signing. Agent Carl
Poston said Woodsons
deal includes a $700,000
signing bonus and could
be worth as much as $4.3
million in 2013.
Woodson, the fourth
overall pick in the 1998 draft by Oakland,
returns to a vastly different franchise than
the one he left following his eighth season
with the team in 2005. Owner Al Davis died
in October 2011 and the team is now run by
Davis son, Mark. Kicker Sebastian
Janikowski is the only player left from
Woodsons eight years in Oakland that
included three straight AFC West titles and a
trip to the Super Bowl following the 2002
season.
The Raiders havent had a winning season
or a playoff berth since, adding to the fans
desire to bring back Woodson and a connec-
tion to past successes.
The 36-year-old was released by the Green
Bay Packers in a salary-cutting move Feb.
15, with two years remaining on his con-
tract. He had said he wanted to join a con-
tender and visited with San Francisco and
Denver but ended up signing with a rebuild-
ing Raiders team coming off a 4-12 season.

ESPN cutting workforce,
smartly managing costs
NEWYORK ESPN is cutting its workforce, the lat-
est Disney division to reduce staff.
The company would not say how many jobs are being
eliminated, but they include unlled positions. ESPN has
about 7,000 employees worldwide, with about 4,000 at
its headquarters in Bristol, Conn. The vast majority work
behind the scenes.
In April, Disney laid off about 150 people at LucasArts,
the video-game making division of Lucasfilm, four
months after acquiring the company behind Star Wars
for $4.06 billion.

The team, the 20th in a league that has doubled in size
in two decades, will be called New York City Football
Club. It has less than two years to nd a temporary home
while also focusing on where it wants to build a perma-
nent stadium.
Its a powerhouse combination, Mayor Michael
Bloomberg said after Tuesdays announcement.
Sports briefs
ARLINGTON, Texas Oakland
rookie right-hander Dan Straily was
well aware of the ace pitcher and the
powerful lineup he was facing.
Now everyone can take notice of
Straily, who on television before his
latest start saw plenty of highlights
touting Yu Darvish being on the
mound.
Straily allowed only two two singles
while facing 22 batters just one
over the minimum for his seven score-
less innings and Yoenis Cespedes
homered as the Athletics won their
fth straight game, 1-0 over the AL
West-leading Texas Rangers and
Darvish.
My confidence was sky high to
start the game, Straily said. The last
few times out, I walked people, hit
people, hurt myself. I wasnt getting
hit hard. I was hurting myself. The
whole goal today was go out and ll up
the strike zone.
Darvish (7-2) struck out ve, but
walked three and hit a batter while giv-
ing up ve hits in six innings. Wi t h
the help of a couple of defensive
plays, the only run he allowed came
when Cespedes homered to straight-
away center in the third.
Cespedes ninth homer went just
beyond the reach of Craig Gentrys
outstretched glove. Darvish had turned
and watched after the slugger took a
big swing and connected.
As soon as Cespedes hit that home
run, I knew just keep it there, 1-0 our
best chance, Straily said.
The best pitching performance
weve seen out of him to date, in this
ballpark, against a guy thats proba-
bly not going to give up too many
runs, manager Bob Melvin said. I
think he just gained condence as the
game went along. Early in the game,
hes throwing strikes, hes getting
outs, theyre not hitting any balls hard
really, and you just kind of grow from
that.
Darvish had won all ve of his pre-
vious starts this season when pitching
after a Texas loss.
The ace from Japan had his last
seven regular-season starts at Rangers
Ballpark, going back to last season,
and had entered the game getting a
league-high 9.1 runs per nine innings
pitched.
Straily, Cespedes push As past Rangers
SAN FRANCISCO Pablo Sandoval hit a two-run home
run in the bottom of the 10th inning after Gregor Blancos
tying triple in the ninth, and the San Francisco Giants ral-
lied past the Washington Nationals 4-2 on Tuesday night.
Sandoval ipped his bat and shifted into a slow trot as
soon as he sent the ball off Yunesky Maya (0-1) over the
right-center eld wall for his eighth homer this season. It
was Sandovals second career game-ending hit both
home runs against the Nationals and San Franciscos
sixth walk-off win this season.
Blanco had three hits, including his RBI triple off closer
Rafael Soriano with two outs in the ninth.

into L.A. and win a game on
Thursday. Were looking forward
to it.
After falling behind 2-0, the
Kings showed some fight in a
dominant third period. They got
on the scoreboard on a power play
when Burns was sent off for board-
ing Anze Kopitar.
Los Angeles wore down San
Joses penalty killers in the offen-
sive zone and scored when
Richards knocked in a rebound of
Jeff Carters shot.
I think we battled back and
made it close but you dont get
much for making it close, Kings
coach Darryl Sutter said.
The Kings outshot the Sharks
14-2 in the third period, holding
San Jose without a shot for nearly
13 minutes but couldnt get the
equalizer against Niemi.
Couture gave the Sharks a 2-0
lead early in the second period,
deecting a point shot by Boyle
past Quick while Colin Fraser was
in the penalty box for roughing
Andrew Desjardins in the offen-
sive zone.
The Kings started to generate
the better scoring chances after
that, getting denied a goal midway
through the period on an early
whistle by an ofcial.
Los Angeles was unable to gen-
erate a shot on goal during two
power plays later in the period
with Jake Muzzin, shooting high
with an empty net to cost the
Kings a golden opportunity at a
goal.
For us, its about how they
dominated the first half of the
game and then we dominated the
second half of the game, defense-
man Rob Scuderi said. But they
buried their chances. They play
well here and we didnt learn from
Game 3, so thats on us for not
learning from our own mistakes.
The Sharks opened the game
with one of their most dominating
periods of the year to the delight
of the boisterous crowd chanting
Beat L.A.! Beat L.A.! from the
start.
But San Jose had only one goal
to show for that start thanks to
solid play from Quick and a shot
by Tommy Wingels that rang off
the crossbar.
Led by the physically imposing
line of Thornton, Burns and TJ
Galiardi, the Sharks spent almost
the entire rst period in the Los
Angeles zone.
San Jose jumped on top early
when Thornton stole the puck
from Slava Voynov on the
forecheck and fed Burns, who shot
was blocked.
Thornton came up with the
loose puck and slid a perfect cross-
ice pass to Burns, who was not
denied on his second chance, beat-
ing Quick with a one-timer.
Burns has been shooting the
puck real well so it was just a mat-

rst shot, the puck just came right
back to me. He was open again and
I just made the pass.

SANTACLARA Only a Colin
Kaepernick deep ball away from
the San Francisco 49ers practice
field, Levis Stadium is taking
shape in a hurry.
The constant noise around team
headquarters is a combination of
cranes, hammering and coaches
whistles. San Franciscos players
got back to formal offseason work
with organized team activities
Tuesday while also celebrating the
announcement that their new,
state-of-the-art $1.2 billion stadi-
um next door had landed the covet-
ed 50th Super Bowl in 2016.
Right in the heart of technolo-
gy-rich Silicon Valley, to boot.
I think it will be pretty cool,
big for the city of San Francisco,
safety Donte Whitner said. Its
big for us personally because any
time a team hosts the Super Bowl,
you want to be the team that hosts
it and actually plays in it. So, we
have something to look forward
to.
The only other time the Bay
Area hosted the NFL title game,
the 49ers were in it. That was after
the 1984 season, when Joe
Montana led the Niners past the
Miami Dolphins 38-16 at Stanford
Stadium.
With the franchise on a roll,
everybody hopes a sixth champi-
onship is coming after the Niners
lost the last Super Bowl 34-31 to
coach Jim Harbaughs big brother,
John, and his Baltimore Ravens.
We just got the biggest stage
on its golden anniversary. Lets
show the world what weve got,
Bay Area, 49ers president Gideon
Yu posted Tuesday on Twitter.
While Whitner is in the nal
season of his contract, he could be
re-signed and a part of the rst sea-
son at Levis Stadium in 2014.
This year will be one to say
farewell to iconic Candlestick
Park, shared by the 49ers and San
Francisco Giants before the base-
ball team built its waterfront ball-
park and opened there in 2000.
With this stadium being built,
its exciting, linebacker Aldon
Smith said. Its exciting for all
the fans, the area. Were looking
forward to it.
On Tuesday, several members of
the Levis Stadium construction
crew worked high atop the stadium
on the light xtures as the 49ers
practiced below on a breezy after-
noon. The players parking lot is
directly beneath the stadium, so
the 49ers see signicant changes
even by the day.
Its kind of cool to see the
progress that theyre making, how
fast theyre actually getting it up,
Whitner said. Theyve been
working around the clock on this
thing, and now you can actually
see the structure of it, the glass
windows. The excitement is build-
ing. Were excited about this foot-
ball season, but then it gives us
something to look forward to
going into the following football
season. Being able to be out here
every day and see them work, it
gives us a lot more excitement.
While theres no doubt the play-
ers have Super Bowls on the mind,
the next one is the primary focus
after falling just short against the
Ravens in New Orleans. That still
stings.
Its not a big deal right now,
fullback Bruce Miller said. Its
nice. Its going to be exciting for
the fans and the community, but
right now were focused on this
year and the next Super Bowl.

their spring meetings. The 49ers new
home is set to open next year in Santa
Clara, and will host the rst Super Bowl in
the area since 1985.
Houston staged the 2004 Super Bowl.
Miami has hosted 10 of them including
the Jets upset of the Colts in 1969 and is
tied with New Orleans for the most. But
South Florida got rejected twice after the
Florida Legislature did not support nanc-
ing to renovate Sun Life Stadium.
We are so excited to be able to be able to
put on the Golden Super Bowl in the
Golden State, 49ers CEO Jed York said.
They will stage it in what is being pro-
moted as the most technologically
advanced stadium in the world, and earned
that right on a day when the NFL made a
$400 million deal with Microsoft to
upgrade the fan viewing experience. Levis
Stadium gures to be the rst cashless,
ticketless venue in NFL championship his-
tory, with WiFi capability for 75,000 peo-
ple.
After losing a Super Bowl (to Baltimore
last February), it feels really good to win a
Super Bowl, York cracked.
Houston hosted once before, in 2004,
and is calling the 51st Super Bowl an inter-
national experience that will include fans
from Mexico.
I think a lot of them just felt like, hey,
its Houstons time, Texans owner Robert
McNair said of his colleagues. They knew
we could do a good job. From 2004 to 17,
thats 13 years. So I agree, I think its
Houstons time.
The only previous Super Bowl played in
northern California was at Stanford
Stadium in 1985.
When NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell
announced the 2016 decision, members of
the San Francisco bid committee let out a
roar of approval, then toasted each other
with champagne.
Asked what he believed swayed the own-
ers to vote for San Francisco, York added:
Its the will power of an entire area that
gave an overwhelming push for us.
It was the rst time in a decade that a
Super Bowl was awarded on the rst ballot.
The Bay Area has been waiting for a
(title) game since 1985. We have a stadium
now ... we are just thrilled and couldnt be
happier about this, said Daniel Lurie, a
leader of the San Francisco bid.
We are going to get to highlight the
best the Bay Area has to offer.
That includes donating 25 percent of the
proceeds from the game to ght poverty in
the San Francisco Bay Area, York said.
The Dolphins were denied public money
for a stadium upgrade in South Florida fol-
lowing widespread complaints about the
public investment sunk into the Marlins
new baseball home.

have a bunch of condence having those
factors.
Ive seen her grow tremendously over the
past seven years, Rocha, whos been
coaching Klimenko since she was 10 years
old, said. And shes always been able to
throw hard, shes always been able to throw
with movement. One of the things we con-
tinue to work on, and that shes really been
excelling at lately, is that mental aspect of
the game.
Soquels biggest threat came in the sev-
enth when they had the potential tying run
on rst base with two outs. But a ground out
to third ended the game.
Its been growing, not only this season,
but ever since I started high school soft-
ball, Klimenko said of her confidence.
This year, its at a peek but its still grow-
ing. Im so happy.
The Cougars are more than happy to have
Klimenko. Not only did she pitch lights
out, she came up with the clutch hit of the
game.
Rudorfer led off the third with a single.
After a pop out and then a Chandra Anderson
walk, Klimenko went the opposite way with
a single through the right side of the ineld.
Rudorfer scored easily when the ball was
bobbled in the outeld. Donovan followed
with a elders choice that plated Anderson
and made it 2-0. As it turned out, it was more
than enough offense for Klimenko and her
defense.
We talked a lot about going to the plate,
not worrying so much about I know this
girl is going to throw a drop, or I know
this girl is going to throw a rise, but more
just doing what theyve done and looking
for their pitch and being relaxed, Rocha
said. Going after the pitch they want to go
after.
I saw the pitch I wanted. I went with it
and it turned out good, Klimenko said. Our
offense, weve been doing great all season.
Its probably one of the best offensive sea-
sons Ive ever seen with this team through-
out my high school years.
Half Moon Bay awaits the winner of Notre
Dame-Salinas and Santa Catalina, who will
play Wednesday for the right to face the
Cougars. That championship game will be
played at PAL Stadium in San Jose at a time
to be announced.
Its just butteries, nerves, condence,
happiness, Klimenko said. And its just
taking it all in.
HMB
time, however. Redman buckled down and
got a popout to rst base for the rst out of
the inning, induced a yout to right for the
second out and the yout to King in left to
end the game.
It ended a superb effort for Redman, who
pitched a complete game, allowing three run
on seven hits.
Incredible, Schoof described Redmans
performance. Hes not the most physically
imposing pitcher, but his heart is huge and
he refuses to lose.
Redman got off to a shaky start as Palma
touched him for a run in the bottom of the
rst inning. With two outs, he walked Jack
Ross and Neff reached on an ineld hit.
Anthony Payan came and ared a single to
left field to drive in Ross for a 1-0
Chieftains lead.
Menlo came back to take the lead in the
top of the fourth. With Stratford and King
on base, No. 9 hitter Joe Farnham hit a
grounder that appeared destined for center
eld. The Palma shortstop made a dive to
stop the ball from going to the outeld, but
his only play was at second and Lucian beat
the throw with Stratford scoring to tie the
game. Mikey Diekroeger then drew a walk
to bring up West Bay Athletic League MVP
Austin Marcus, who, on a full count, dumped
an opposite-eld single into right eld to
drive in Lucian and Farnham to put Menlo
up 3-1.
Palma, however, would not go away. In
the sixth, Ross singled and came around to
score on a Payan double. He would score on
an Amos Strauss bloop single to right to tie
the score at 3.
The Knights, however, would not be
denied.
Wow. Im amazed, Schoof said. The
kids showed tremendous heart.
Now the Knights will face a 30-0 Pacic
Grove squad essentially the same team
that beat the Knights in the Division III
championship game last year. Again, not a
lot of people will expect Menlo to win. But
that wont deter the Knights.
Were going to see what happens,
Schoof said. We will not be afraid.

Andy Murray out of French
Open due to back injury
LONDON Andy Murray with-
drew from the French Open on
Tuesday because of a chronic back
injury and will now focus on
preparing for the start of the grass-
court season next month.
The U.S. Open champion met
with specialists this week after
being forced to pull out of his sec-
ond-match against Marcel
Granollers of Spain at the Italian
Open last Wednesday because of
the long-standing complaint.
The French Open, the second
Grand Slam tournament of the year,
starts Sunday.
Murray reached the quarternals
at the French Open last year,
falling to David Ferrer, before
going on to lose his first
Wimbledon nal to Roger Federer.
He avenged that defeat against the
Swiss star to win Olympic gold,
and downed Novak Djovokic at the
U.S. Open for his rst Grand Slam
title later in 2012.
Wimbledon runs from June 24 to
July 7 this year.

Golfs two governing bodies
outlawed the anchored putting
stroke used by four of the last six
major champions, approving a
new rule that starts in 2016 and
urging the PGA Tour to follow
along so the 600-year-old sport is
still played under one set of rules.
The Royal & Ancient Golf Club
and the U.S. Golf Association
adopted Rule 14-1b, which pro-
hibits players from anchoring a
club against their bodies.
We strongly believe that this
rule is for the betterment of the
game, USGA President Glen
Nager said. Rule 14-1b protects
one of the important challenges in
the game the free swing of the
entire club.
The decision Tuesday ends six
months of sometimes rancorous
debate. The rule was opposed by
the PGA Tour and the PGA of
America, which contended the
stroke commonly used for long
putters was not hurting the game
and there was no statistical proof
that it was an advantage.
We recognize this has been a
divisive issue, but after thorough
consideration, we remain con-
vinced that this is the right deci-
sion for golf, R&A chief execu-
tive Peter Dawson said at European
Tour headquarters outside London.
The next step and perhaps the
most important step is for the
PGATour to follow the new rule or
decide to establish its own condi-
tion of competition that would
allow players to anchor the long
Golf to enact ban of anchored putting stroke

New rice contamination reported in China
BEIJING Authorities are investigating rice mills in
southern China following tests that found almost half of
the staple grain in one of the countrys largest cities was
contaminated with a toxic metal.
The mills in Hunan provinces Youxian county were
ordered to suspend business and recall their products after
samples showed excessive levels of cadmium, according
to an official notice issued Tuesday by the county govern-
ment.
It said the mills had been operating legally and sourced
their rice from local farmers.
The announcement followed reports over the weekend
that government inspectors discovered that 44.4 percent
of rice and rice products tested this year in the southern
city of Guangzhou in Guangdong province showed high
levels of cadmium. The carcinogenic metal can seriously
damage the kidneys and cause other health problems.
Hunan is a heavily agricultural province that borders on
Guangdong, although it wasnt clear if there was a direct
connection between the mills and Guangzhous tainted
rice.
While investigations are continuing, cadmium is
believed to have entered the rice from soil polluted with
heavy metals. Air and soil pollution are chronic problems
in China, caused by poor regulation of industrial emis-
sions and heavy dependence on coal to generate electrici-
t y.
Food brief
By Michele Kayal
When salsa overtook ketchup as
Americas favorite condiment in the
1990s you had to know that taco
night wasnt far behind.
Simple, satisfying and inexpensive,
hard or soft tacos lled with meat,
cheese and a what-have-you of veggies
have become a staple for busy fami-
lies. Sales of taco shells, seasonings
and other products have grown steadily
over the last decade, says Juv
Marchisio, senior marketing manager
for B&G Foods, which owns the
Ortega brand, and research suggests
that roughly half of all Americans
indulge in tacos at home.
And why not? Tacos offer communal
family dining at its best: theres no
arguing or whining when can make it
however they like it.
But the way many Americans
approach tacos at home ground
beef, pre-shredded Mexican cheese,
and that ubiquitous kit with shells and
a avor packet could use a revamp.
Sure, you can change it up with whole-
wheat tacos. You can sneak black
beans into the ground beef. You could
even go the way of the spaghetti taco
popularized by the tween TV show,
iCarly.
But for advice on really taking your
tacos to the next level, we turned to
some innovative chefs and cookbook
authors. Here are some of their most
delicious and creative suggestions, no
recipes needed.
PERSIAN-INSPIRED TACOS
Toss shredded chicken in a sauce of
pomegranate molasses, lime juice and
honey. Stuff the meat into a taco shell
(or wrap it in a our tortilla or even
Middle Eastern atbread) and top with
yogurt, fresh basil, mint, scallions,
tomato, cucumber and plenty of sumac.
This is a classic combination of
Persian ingredients, Louisa Shafia,
author of The New Persian Kitchen,
wrote in an email. Crushed purple
sumac berries are tart and salty and a
must have for conjuring the authentic
avor of Middle Eastern cuisine. To
go vegetarian, Shaa suggests substi-
tuting roasted eggplant for the chick-
en.
STEAK HOUSE TACOS
Season a at-iron steak with salt and
pepper, then sear it on the grill, sug-
gests Washington, D.C. chef Spike
Mendelsohn, who plans to open a
steak frites restaurant called Bearnaise
this summer. Wrap thin slices of the
steak and pickled red onions inside a
soft corn taco and serve with warm
bearnaise sauce for dipping. I love
the idea of eating a steak without
sharpening my knives, Mendelsohn
said via email.
INDIAN-INSPIRED
TACOS, TWO WAYS
Spices like cumin, coriander and
chilies are natural allies in both
Mexican and Indian cuisine, says Ali
Loukzada, chef at New Yorks Cafe
Serai. So what could be more obvious
than a chicken tikka taco drizzled with
mint chutney? Apalms worth of shred-
ded cabbage or radish adds crunch.
When youre adapting Indian a-
vors to a Mexican dish, the original
ingredients and tastes are still pres-
ent, Loukzada said via email. Its
more of an Indian tweak.
To go completely native, ditch the
taco shell for the crisp lentil-and-rice
crepe called dosa. I Indianize our taco
llings at home all the time, Rohini
Dey, owner of Vermillion restaurant in
New York and Chicago, writes in an
email. At her restaurants, Dey offers a
dosa-taco bar, where Latin fillings
such as anchovies, avocado, chorizo
and Michoacan beef are offered along-
side the spiced potato stufng tradi-

tionally used in dosa.
Chutneys of mint, coconut and tamarind
typical Mexican as well as Indian fla-
vors line the toppings bar. By confin-
ing the chili to the chutneys instead of the
filling, its easy for the family to tailor to
each persons spice tolerance, Dey writes.
PIG-IN-A-TACO
Stick a pork tenderloin in the slow
cooker until it practically melts, suggests
Marie Simmons, author of the new cook-
book, Taste of Honey. Shred the meat,
then toss it with a sweet-spicy barbecue
sauce made by simmering honey, chipotle
peppers packed in adobo sauce, ketchup,
soy sauce, cumin, chili powder, garlic and
a swig of cider vinegar for about 10 min-
utes, or until thick.
I just love the deep, spicy taste of
sticky glazed pork, Simmons writes in an
email.
Top the taco with avocado, thinly sliced
radishes and a shredded jicama-and-carrot
slaw dressed with chopped cilantro and
lime juice.
CALIFORNIA VEGETARIAN TACOS
Well, duh! No taco line up is complete
without a recipe from California, the
entry point of so much of the countrys
Mexican culture.
Santa Barbara-based food and garden
blogger Valerie Rice (Eat Drink Garden)
uses lentils as the base for her taco, sim-
mering them with tomato, garlic, red pep-
per, and a dash each of cumin and smoked
paprika. The lentils get packaged in a
soft corn tortilla and topped with items
such as roasted tomatillo salsa and gua-
camole.
My first go-round with these I wasnt
sure how it would go over with my meat-
loving husband and sometimes picky
daughters, Rice wrote in an email. But
they were a total hit and now are part of
our dinnertime rotation.

and the speed trailers run between $10,000
and $22,000 each.
Councilman Ian Bain called the software
purchase a no-brainer.
The trailers shape behavior by creating
two voluntary periods of education and com-
pliance with a period of enforcement in the
middle, Gamez said.
The potential for change jumps roughly
66 percent using this mixed approach as
opposed to just a single enforcement peri-
od, he said.
The council was not asked to make any
decisions on Gamezs plan or the purchases
but did support his decision to, as
Councilwoman Barbara Pierce summed it
up, try new things.
The city ended its 60-month contract with
Redex Trafc Systems in March. The use
was aimed at capturing violations at the
intersections of Whipple Avenue and
Veterans Boulevard.
The area had 12 red light-related crashes
between 2003 and 2009 but Gamez said
those dropped to three after the cameras
were installed.
The new approach mixing technical and
traditional enforcement includes correlating
information from trafc collision reports,
citations and arrests for driving while under
the inuence. The software helps identify
the problem areas rather than rely on
across-the-board camera use to monitor
unsafe activity.
The police department also hired an of-
cer who worked collaboratively with a Santa
Clara University professor on a collision
data analysis program for future develop-
ment of a model that can predict enforce-
ment.
Although the red light camera contract is
done, the city will continue paying two
part-time employees until the end of the cur-
rent scal year to process the backlog of
violations.
The camera equipment will also remain in
place in case the City Council changes its
mind about using it in the future.
At the end of the discussion, Mayor Jeff
Ira reiterated the reason behind the red light
camera use.
So many people think its about revenue
enhancement and its really not, Ira said.
Its about safety.

Up to 7,725 hotel room guests are expect-

Super Bowl festivities, LeClair told the
Daily Journal.
She has been working with ofcials from
both the San Francisco and Santa Clara
County visitors bureaus for the past few
months as an application was being pre-
pared to present to the NFLto host the Super
Bowl. Santa Clara and the 49ers beat out
Miami for the honors to host the event.
The average Super Bowl attendee,
LeClair said, will be bringing lots of dis-
posable income. Some will y in just for
the excitement even though they dont have
tickets.
Hotels, restaurants and gas stations
between Santa Clara and San Francisco will
benet greatly from the event, she said.
We are perfectly positioned, LeClair
said about San Mateo County.
Already, ofcials at Caltrain are starting
to think about how to accommodate the
masses.
Caltrain will connect with VTA Light

vide football fans transit service to the
new 49ers stadium in Santa Clara. We
congratulate the city on its selection for
the 50th Super Bowl in 2016 and we look

the Super Bowl will bring huge economic
benets to this region and the state. And

When it comes to packing a picnic bas-
ket, sandwiches are almost always the
stars of the menu. And why not? They are
easy to eat with your hands, pack well and
are versatile enough to keep everyone
happy.
And for the rest of the meal, we tend to
lean toward yet more finger food chips,
cookies, hopefully some fruit. In other
words, gobs of carbs. But vegetables? Not
so much.
Sure, carrot sticks, celery sticks, strips
of bell pepper, and stalks of broccoli and
cauliflower are every bit as handy as a
sandwich. But lets face it, many of us feel
that eating raw, unadorned veggies is like
taking medicine. You do it because youre
supposed to, not necessarily because you
want to.
So heres a tasty and handy way to
smuggle vegetables onto the picnic menu:
fresh summer rolls. This dish involves fill-
ing a rice paper wrapper with a combina-
tion of raw vegetables, herbs, cooked noo-
dles, protein, and sometimes fruit. And
frankly despite the name (they sometimes
are called fresh spring rolls, too) I consid-
er them to be delicious in any season.
And theyre so easy to prepare. You dont
even have to cook them. All you have to do
is soak the wrapper in warm water to make
it pliable. Then fill it with just about any-
thing you like. My recipe focuses on veg-
etables because I wanted to help fill the
veggie gap at the picnic table. But whatev-
er the filling, please dont lose this
recipes fresh mint (or basil if you prefer).
The fresh herb is key.
Conveniently, summer rolls can be made
ahead of time, covered with damp paper
towels and plastic wrap, and stored for up
to four hours in the refrigerator. The damp
towels keep the rolls from drying out and
sticking to each other. And given their
compactness, summer rolls also happen to
travel well. You can layer them side-by-
side in those plastic snap-tight contain-
ers, covered with the damp towels and
wrap.
By the way, it was the sauce in this
recipe that first sold me on summer rolls.
Id never eaten them until one day, years
ago, when Chinese cookbook author Rosa
Ross was a guest chef in my Gourmet mag-
azine dining room. Rosa happens to make
the most delicious peanut dipping sauce on
the planet. That day at Gourmet I killed a
bunch of those rolls just so I could return
for yet another mouthful of her sauce.
Years later, at work on my second cook-
book, I started concocting a peanut sauce
of my own. I did a ton of research, trying
to sort all the possible ingredients. But to
keep myself from filching her ideas, I
deliberately didnt check Rosas recipe.
When my rolls didnt turn out to be as won-
derful as hers, I was forced to look at her
formula. It featured most of the usual sus-
pects: peanut butter, of course, and hoisin,
sesame oil and soy sauce.
But it also contained one ingredient that
I saw in no other recipe scallions. Who
knew that two lonely little scallions could
make all the difference? I called up Rosa
and asked if shed allow me to use her
recipe, slightly adapted, in my cookbook,
and give her credit. She graciously said
yes. Now Im sharing that sauce with you.
Next picnic, dont be surprised if your kids
start ignoring the chips and dogging the
veggies.
Just blame it on the peanut sauce.
FRESH SUMMER ROLLS WITH
SPICY PEANUT DIPPING SAUCE
Start to finish: 40 minutes
Makes 16 rolls
For the dipping sauce:
3/4 cup smooth unsalted natural peanut
butter
1/2 cup hoisin sauce
2 to 3 tablespoons lime or lemon juice,
or to taste
2 scallions, white and green parts,
coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons sesame oil
Hot sauce, to taste
2 tablespoons water
For the rolls:
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1/2 teaspoon sugar
Kosher salt
1 cup coarsely shredded carrots
1 cup shredded Napa cabbage
Sixteen 8-inch rice paper wrappers
1/2 medium jicama, cut into julienne
strips (about 1 cup)
1 cup thinly sliced red bell pepper strips
1 cup blanched and thinly sliced snow
peas
32 large fresh mint leaves
To make the dipping sauce, in a food
processor or blender combine the peanut
butter, hoisin, 2 tablespoons lime juice,
the scallions, soy sauce, sesame oil, hot
sauce and water. Puree until smooth. Taste
and add more lime juice or hot sauce if
desired, and additional water if necessary
to thin the sauce to a good dipping consis-
tency. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
To prepare the rolls, in a small bowl
combine the rice vinegar, sugar and a hefty
pinch of salt. Whisk until the salt and
sugar are dissolved. Add the carrots and
cabbage and toss well. Set aside.
Fill a large bowl with hot water. Add 1
rice paper wrapper to the water and let soak
for 10 to 15 seconds, or until just barely
soft and pliable. Lay the wrapper flat on
the counter. In the center of the wrapper,
place a small, oblong mound of the carrot-
cabbage mixture, then top with a bit each
of jicama, bell pepper and snow peas. Top
with 2 mint leaves.
To fold the roll, start by folding the right
and left sides of the wrapper over the fill-
ings. Next, fold the end closest to you up
over the fillings and sides. Holding the
roll firmly, roll it away from you until the
remaining wrapper is completely rolled
up. Transfer the roll, seam side down, to a
plate and cover with a damp paper towel.
Repeat with the remaining wrappers and
fillings.
The vegetable rolls can be made up to 4
hours ahead, covered with a damp paper
towel and plastic wrap and chilled. Serve
with the dipping sauce.

Dean of Students Michael Valmonte
wrote in a letter or recommendation
about Amirnasiri.
Valmonte balanced her top student
position with volunteer work she does
as part of the Service Commission
such as tutoring at-risk students.
This experience has allowed her to
see the other side of our school expos-
ing her to a subculture of which many
of our top students dont experience.
Her thoughtfulness to interact and help
all segments of our school community
epitomizes the type of student that we
are trying to develop. She is truly an
inspiration, Valmonte wrote.
Amirnasiri isnt sure where her many
passions will take her. She does have
some ideas. For example, Amirnasiri
is intrigued by e-commerce and the
capabilities of it to reach developing
countries. Shed love to be a part of
changing that. The question is what
she should study to achieve that.
Aragon High Schools graduation is

Lopez said these people are in every
community and struggle to nd afford-
able housing.
She described a woman who recently
lost her husband to lung cancer. She is
now considering moving in with her
daughter who lives in Washington
state.
Another woman who is divorced was
laid off from her real estate job. She
was using her unemployment check to
barely pay her $1,500 a month rent.
People are literally renting a couch
for $300 a month just to have a place
to stay, she said.
Right now the outlook is pretty
bleak, said Joshua Hugg, program
manager for the Housing Leadership
Council.
The people who really make the
county run cant afford to live here, he
said.
Teachers and nonprofit, restaurant
and retail workers nd it challenging
to pay the $2,000 per month for a one-
bedroom apartment on the Peninsula,
he said.
The housing, employment and trans-
portation figures in the indicators
report reect the countys options for
providing affordable housing going
forward. Simply waiting for housing
prices to go down is not an option,
said Hugg. Service workers cant com-
pete with high-tech employees for
housing.
Natural affordability in this county
is a thing of the past, said Hugg.
The county has exhausted all expan-
sive development options and must
intentionally create available housing
for lower income levels, he said.
He proposed inll housing devel-
opment projects in downtown and pub-
lic transit areas.
Board members of Sustainable San
Mateo County hope the resources in
the report lead to better community
management practices.
Its not enough to just point out
what these issues are, said Bill
Schulte, board chair.
SSMC intends to follow up with
cities and continue to spread the word,
said Schulte.
Funding from cities, businesses and
individuals has made the report possi-
ble, and volunteering by community
members is vital to the continuation
of the report, he said.
We can only do this with your sup-
port and involvement, he said.

REPORT
see what can be done to increase the
level of medical care services in some
of these rural and very underserved
areas, County Manager John Maltbie
told the board in recommending the
funding.
The recommendation calls for
$551,180 in scal year 2013-14 fol-
lowed by $402,359 the next year for
purchase of a mobile clinic van to
serve Pescadero, La Honda, Loma Mar
and San Gregorio. The money will also
fund a bilingual team half time con-
sisting of a physician, medical assis-
tant, patient services assistant and
community worker/driver.
Ongoing costs to staff the mobile
clinic are estimated at $201,180 the
rst year followed by $402,359 annu-
ally although that gure could escalate
due to medical ination.
A brick-and-mortar clinic is the
preferable solution but the lack of an
actual site in Pescadero is currently
keeping the possibility at bay.
The use of a mobile clinic for uncom-
plicated primary care is a new concept
for the Health System. The goal is pro-
viding care for 500 new patients and
reduce death and chronic illness
through prevention.
This is a new approach with a more
consistent and intensive outreach to
communities, Maltbie said.
If the bolstered program builds a sus-
tainable level of patients over the next
two years, Maltbie foresees returning
back to the board not only for contin-
ued funding but also nding a perma-
nent site for the program.
The San Mateo Medical Clinic once
had active programs serving the coast
but the lack of enough funding led to
consolidation in Half Moon Bay
too far for the schedules of farm work-
ers who work six days a week and
spend the seventh in church, said
board President Don Horsley.
Horsley said he sees the need for the
van and preventative care primarily in
agriculture, with diabetics and
amputees languishing in farm labor
housing, children suffering asthma and
the impacts to all from herbicides and
other spraying. He also spoke of see-
ing the need for prevention in the num-
ber of people with heart attacks and
stroke.
Measure Ais anticipated to bring in
$60 million annually for the next 10
years. Another expected allocation to
medical care is Seton Medical Center
which wants millions of dollars for
seismic upgrades. A presentation on
that request will be heard at an upcom-
ing meeting to be determined.

This notice announces that a Draft Environmental Impact Report (EIR)
will be prepared for the San Francisquito Creek Flood Protection,
Ecosystem Restoration, and Recreation Project, Upstream of Highway 101
(Project) to identify, evaluate, and disclose possible environmental impacts,
and to develop strategies to avoid, reduce, or compensate for any
signicant impacts.
As the lead agency responsible for compliance with the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the San Francisquito Creek Joint Powers
Authority (SFCJPA) has determined that the Project may have a sigQLcant
impact on the physical environment, and has decided to prepare an EIR
to provide opportunities for public disclosure and public participation in the
planning and decision making process. The purpose of the Draft EIR process
is to develop and assess a recommended plan, evaluate feasible alternatives
for the Project, and propose measures that avoid or mitigate sigQLFant adverse
effects on environmental resources.
This document, which serves as the Notice of Preparation (NOP) required
by CEQA and the state s CEQA Guidelines (14 CCR 15082), contains a
description of the Project, including the Project s goals and objectives,
possible environmental impacts, and the resulting need for an EIR. It also
discusses the process that will be used to determine the scope of analysis in
the EIR, describes opportunities for public review of the EIR, and lists contact
information.
Background
The San Francisquito Creek watershed encompasses the cities of East Palo
Alto, Palo Alto, and Menlo Park, among others. The SFCJPA, a regional
government agency, was founded by these three cities, and the Santa Clara
Valley Water District (SCVWD), and San Mateo County Flood Control District
(SMCFCD) in 1999 following a major RRG WKH preceding year. The SFCJPA
plans, designs and implements capital projects that are comprehensive in terms
of geography and function by crossing jurisdictional boundaries and providing
Rod prevention and ecosystem and recreational enhancements.
Flooding caused by San Francisquito Creek has been a common occurrence.
The most UHFHQW RRG RFFXUred as a result of high creek ows on December
23, 2012, when the Creek overtopped its banks in several areas. The maximum
instantaQHRXV SHDN ow during the December 2012 event was 5,400 cubic
feet per second (cfs). This was considered a 20-year event, which would have
a 5% chance of occurring in any given year. In February 1998, a 7,200 cfs
event (considered a 45-year event) impacted approximately 1,700 residential
and commercial structures and caused $28 million in property damage. It is
predicted that the 100-year Rod event would damage over 5,500 properties.
In November 2012, the EIR for the proposed project in the downstream-most
reach of the creek (San Francisco Bay upstream to Highway 101) was certiHd.
In 2012, the SFCJPA and its partner agencies made signLFDQW SURgress on
project design and the securing of funds to construct improvements in this
downstream reach east of Highway 101. The Project to be analyzed subject
to this NOP continues the SFCJPAs progress further upstream by increasing
stream ow capacity west of Highway 101 in order to protect people and
property from FUHHN ows within the Rodplain between Highway 101 and
El Camino Real, and to enhance the ecosystem and recreational connectivity.
Goals and Objectives
The Project s goals are to improve ood protection, habitat, and recreational
opportunities within the Study Area, with the following speFLF REMectives:
protect properties and infrastructure between Highway 101 and El Camino Real
from oodwaters exiting San Francisquito Creek during a 100-year RRG event;
enhance habitat along the Project reach, particularly habitat for threatened and
endangered species; enhance recreational uses and connectivity;
and minimize operational and maintenance requirements.
Project Description
Consistent with the requirements of CEQA and the states CEQA Guidelines,
the SFCJPA is developing a range of approaches that would meet Project goals
and objectives. Each of the approaches relies on a combination of several types
of elemHQWV WR EHWWHU PDQDJH Rod ows in the San Francisquito watershed.
The SFCJPA and SCVWD have conducted a preliminary analysis to determine
the most appropriate Project alternatives for the creek reach upstream of Highway
101 that can be completed locally, while preserving compliance with federal
standards and the opportunity for future federal support for construction.
When implemented, the baseline Project elements would provide protection
against the 50-year RRd event in the Project reach upstream of Highway 101.
These baseline elements are a necessary foundation to implement an additional
project alternatives that would provide 100-year ood protection to areas between
Highway 101 and El Camino Real.
Possible Environmental Impacts and Need for EIR
Because of the potential for signicant impacts to the environment, the SFCJPA
has decided to prepare an EIR. The purpose of an EIR is to inform decision-
makers and the general public of the environmental effects of a proposed
project. The EIR process is intended to provide information suIcient to
evaluate a proposed project and its potential to cause signicant effects on the
environment; examine methods of reducing adverse environmental impacts;
and identify alternatives to the proposed project.
Based on a preliminary review performed by the SFCJPA, the following
environmental resources could be affected by construction of the Project:
Aesthetics
Air Quality
Biological Resources and Jurisdictional Habitat
Climate Change
Geology, Soils, and Minerals Hazards and Hazardous Materials
Hydrology and Water Quality
Land Use and Planning
Noise and Vibration
Paleontological, Archaeological, and Historic Architectural Resources
Recreation
TrDIF and Transportation
Utilities and Public Services
EIR Scoping Process
The Draft EIR will analyze the topic areas idenWLed above in detail, and any
others for which potentially signicant impacts are ideQWLed. The Draft EIR will
propose measures to mitigate (avoid, reduce, or compensate) for any impacts
evDOXDWHG DV VLJQLFDQW.
EIR Scoping Process
This NOP initiates the CEQA scoping process through which the SFCJPA will
UHQH Whe range of issues and alternatives to be addressed in the Draft EIR.
The public is invited to comment on the proposal to prepare the EIR and on the
scope of issues to be included in the EIR.
A scoping meeting will be held on June 6, 2013 at 7:00 p.m. at the East
Palo Alto Academy High School Library at 475 Pope Street in Menlo Park,
CA. This meeting is part of the EIR scoping process during which
the public and agencies can provide input on specic topics that they believe
should be addressed in the environmental analysis.
Written comments may also be sent to:
Kevin Murray, Project Manager
San Francisquito Creek Joint Powers Authority
615 B Menlo Avenue
Menlo Park, CA 94025
(650) 324-1972
Comments must be received no later than 5:00 p.m. on July 8, 2013.
Public Participation in EIR Review
All interested persons and organizations who wish to be notiHd when the
Draft EIR is available for review should respond to this notice and provide a
current address. The SFCJPA will compile a list of interested parties and will
provide notice when the Draft EIR is available. When completed, the Draft EIR
will undergo a 60-day public review and comment period. Information about
availability of the Draft EIR will also be posted on the SFCJPAs website

TEHRAN, Iran Irans election
overseers removed potential wild-card
candidates from the presidential race
Tuesday, blocking a top aide of outgo-
ing President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
and a former president who revived
hopes of reformers.
Their exclusion from the June 14
presidential ballot gives establish-
ment-friendly candidates a clear path to
succeed Ahmadinejad, who has lost
favor with the ruling clerics after years
of power struggles. It also pushes mod-
erate and opposition voices further to
the margins as Irans leadership faces
critical challenges such as internation-
al sanctions and talks with world pow-
ers over Tehrans nuclear program.
The ofcial ballot list, announced on
state TV, followed a nearly six-hour
delay in which the names were kept
under wraps. That raised speculation
that authorities
allowed some time
for appeals by the
blackballed candi-
dates and their back-
ers to Supreme
Leader Ayatollah Ali
Khamenei, who has
nal say in all mat-
ters.
But the official
slate left off two
prominent but divi-
sive gures: former President Akbar
Hashemi Rafsanjani and Ahmadinejad
protege Esfandiar Rahim Mashaei. The
decision also appeared to remove many
potential surprise elements in the race,
including whether Rafsanjani could
revitalize the reform movement or if
Ahmadinejad could play a godfather
role in the election with his hand-
picked political heir.
Instead, the eight men cleared by the
candidate-vetting Guardian Council
included high-prole gures considered
rm and predictable
loyalists to the rul-
ing Islamic estab-
lishment, such as
former Foreign
Minister Ali Akbar
Velayati, Tehran
Mayor Mohammad
Bagher Qalibaf and
Irans top nuclear
negotiator, Saeed
Jalili.
Just one approved
candidate, Mohammad Reza Aref,
might draw some moderate appeal
because of his role as vice president
under former reformist President
Mohammad Khatami.
The rest of the choices, at the very
least, would create a possibly seamless
front between the ruling clerics and
presidency after years of political tur-
moil under Ahmadinejad, who tried to
challenge the theocracys vast powers
to make all major decisions and set key
policies.
Top figures barred from Irans June ballot
The pope and the
devil: Is Francis an exorcist?
VATICAN CITY Pope Francis fascination with the
devil took on remarkable new twists Tuesday, with a well-
known exorcist insisting Francis helped
liberate a Mexican man possessed by
four different demons despite the
Vaticans insistence that no such papal
exorcism took place.
The case concerns a 43-year-old hus-
band and father who traveled to Rome
from Mexico to attend Francis Mass on
Sunday in St. Peters Square. At the end
of the Mass, Francis blessed several
wheelchair-bound faithful as he always
does, including a man possessed by the devil, according to
the priest who brought him, the Rev. Juan Rivas.
Francis laid his hands on the mans head and recited a
prayer. The man heaved deeply a half-dozen times,
shook, then slumped in his wheelchair. The images,
broadcast worldwide, prompted the television station of
the Italian bishops conference to declare that according
to several exorcists, there was no doubt that Francis
either performed an exorcism or a simpler prayer to free
the man from the devil.
