OBAMA WARNS RUSSIA OVER MILITARY MOVES IN CRIMEA
By Angela Swartz
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
As a result of issues stemming from
costs associated with last summers inves-
tigation, retesting and related scoring
activities, Mills High School has been
decertified from administering Advanced
Placement tests for the 2013-14 school
year by the College Board.
In letter mailed out to parents and students
this week, Principal Paul Belzer wrote the
school is working with San Mateo Union
High School Districts ofces curriculum
department and Capuchino High School to
host numerous AP exams May 5-16.
Capuchino is located less than two miles
from Mills.
Although I am very disappointed with
the Colleges Boards decision, Mills and
the SMUHSD will do everything we reason-
ably can to mitigate the inconvenience for
students and families, he wrote. In addi-
tion, I will meet with all students in the
immediate future to explain the situation,
review all necessary procedures and the help
well need from all students taking AP
exams.
Back on July 17, the district reported that
Educational Testing Service, which admin-
isters AP tests for the College Board, inval-
idated tests in 11 AP subjects taken by 286
students who took 641 tests in May 2013
because of seating irregularities. The Mills
investigation stemmed from a complaint
issued by a student on May 13, 2013.
Recently, state Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San
Mateo, and Assemblyman Kevin Mullin, D-
Mills High cant host AP tests

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
The family of a 36-year-old San Mateo
man who went missing on Feb. 16 only
wants one thing for him to come
home.
Brian Butlers vehicle was found aban-
doned on Highway 1 and had recently
been feeling depressed because of the
breakup with his girlfriend of 14 years in
September and other stresses. Butlers friends reported him
missing late Sunday, Feb. 16 after they found his unoccu-
pied vehicle parked along the side of Highway 1 south of the
Tom Lantos Tunnels. Friends and family say he wasnt sui-
cidal.
We all love Brian and we all want him home, said Wyatt
Fields, who has been friends with Brian since third-grade. I
know the detectives can only do so much, but we just need
more information. Something is not adding up; I believe
someone out there knows something theyre not saying.

teacher Linda McLaughlin is retiring
and says it feels like shes nally grad-
uating, having taught at the school for
27 years and growing up in the city.
McLaughlin, 64, plans to retire at
the end of this year. She is part of a
long line of family members who
taught and attended Burlingame High,
including her grandparents. Her three
children are even Burlingame High
graduates. She met her rst husband at
a Recreation Center dance when they
both attended the school.
Theres a sense of community and
pride in being a Panther, she said.
Burlingame has friendly, intellectual,
cultural and supportive people.
Her journey to becoming a teacher
wasnt so direct. She attended
University of California at Berkeley
for two years before deciding to leave,
not understanding the protests and
political climate at the time. She
opened a clothing store called Black
Sleep in Burlingame in 1979, but the
business didnt work out and two years
later she split from her rst husband.
She decided to go back to school and
eventually obtained a bachelors
degree in human relations and science.
I went to my rst job fair and I was
ready to be hired, but realized I had no

Williams was taken to a hospital.

pacemaker stopped working, then
started again.
Family members say Williams, a
farmer, told them hes happy to be
alive.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO Stripped of their
guns and pay, four San Francisco police of-
cers pleaded not guilty Friday to charges
contained in federal corruption indictments
that could send each to prison for a decade or
more.
The four men were among ve current of-
cers and one former ofcer charged Thursday
in the two separate indictments.
Three defendants are accused of taking
money, drugs, electronics and gift cards
seized during investigations. The others are
accused of violating the civil rights of sus-
pects through warrantless searches of resi-
dences.
All but one of the defendants have entered
not guilty pleas and were freed on $50,000
bond pending trial. Ofcer Edmond Robles
appeared in court but needed a lawyer and did-
nt enter a plea. He is due back in court
Tuesday.
Outside court, Mike Rains, an attorney for
Ofcer Arshad Razzak, said he expected all
the defendants to take their cases to trial
rather than accept plea bargains.
These are very serious accusations,
Rains said.
Razzak, 41, and Ofcer Richard Yick, 37,
both of San Francisco; and Ofcer Raul Eric
Elias, 44, of San Mateo each face three civil
rights charges that carry possible penalties
of up to 10 years in prison and a $250,000
ne.
The other defendants are accused of taking
a $500 Apple gift card and other valuables
during a 2009 arrest, an indictment states.
Two days later, former officer Reynaldo
Vargas, 45, of Palm Desert used the card to
buy an iPhone and iPod Nano, prosecutors
said.
Sgt. Ian Furminger, 47, of Pleasant Hill
and Robles, 46, of Danville also are charged
in that case.
Marijuana was taken in another incident,
according to the indictment that accuses
Vargas of delivering the pot to two inform-
ants and asking them to sell it and split the
proceeds with him, Furminger and Robles.
Our department is shaken. This is as seri-
ous as an issue as I can recall in my time in
the department, said an emotional Police
Chief Greg Suhr, who has been with the
department since 1981.
Suhr said federal authorities assured him
the arrests did not reect a systemic problem
in the department.
Furminger, Robles and Vargas each face
counts of drug conspiracy and drug distribu-
tion that each carry a maximum possible
sentence of 20 years in prison and a $1 mil-
lion ne. They also face a charge of civil
rights conspiracy that carries a sentence of
up to 10 years and a $250,000 ne, and a fed-
eral program theft charge.
In the other indictment, three defendants
were charged with civil rights violations
that prosecutors said involve illegally enter-
ing hotel rooms and intimidating occupants.
The charges were based on surveillance
footage from a hotel in the Tenderloin
neighborhood that was released by the citys
public defender, Jeff Adachi, in 2011. Adachi
claimed the videos of plainclothes ofcers
contradicted police reports and sworn police
testimony.
Indicted San Francisco cops plead not guilty

The so-called Valentines Day bandit
bank robber caught on surveillance video
from a Burlingame Safeway about an hour
before the heist had in his pocket at the time
of arrest the Safeway Club card he was taped
using at the store, according to prosecutors.
That detail helping link Reginald Sydney
Jones, 62, to the Feb. 14 robbery of Bank
of the West on Park Road in Burlingame and
an earlier Jan. 10 bank robber in Millbrae
were shared as the San Francisco resident
appeared in court Friday afternoon.
Jones was arrested Feb.
20 at his San Francisco
residence by authorities
using the grocery store
tape, bank video and DNA
recovered from the fake
gun used in the robberies.
On Friday, Jones plead-
ed not guilty to two
counts of armed bank
robbery and remains in
custody on $750,000 bail.
Jones has prior bank robbery convic-
tions in 1992 and 2009 so a new convic-
tion could count as a third strike and carry
a sentence of 25 years to life.
In this latest round, prosecutors say he
robbed the Chase Bank on El Camino Real
in Millbrae on Jan. 10 using the fake gun
and a demand note. He escaped with $4,800.
On Feb. 14, a man robbed the Burlingame
bank with a demand note but no gun. He left
with $1,568, according to prosecutors.

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF REPORT
The Marin County businessman
who fell into the Bay after crash-
ing his car into a guard rail and try-
ing to throw his wife off the San
Mateo-Hayward Bridge is bipolar
and paranoid, according to a
defense psychologist who testied
at his two-day preliminary hear-
i ng.
However, Xavier Jarrell
McClinton was held to answer on
all charges including attempted
murder for the Dec. 13 incident.
McClinton, a 47-year-old per-
sonal trainer and business owner,
allegedly made the attempt on his
wifes life after weeks of paranoid
and uncharacteristic behavior like
believing people were trying to
break into his house to harm him
and the couples children.
On the day in question, the cou-
ple reportedly argued as they drove
east onto the bridge and about
2:25 p.m.
McClinton tried
driving their
vehicle off the
side. He then
allegedly pulled
his wife from
the vehicle and
tried to go over
the bridge side
with her until
p a s s e r s b y
grabbed her legs and held her dan-
gling as he fell. Rescue crews
pulled him from the water and
arrested him.
The accident snarled bridge traf-
c for hours.
McClintons wife of eight years
was left with a severe gash on her
cheek.
He is held without bail and
barred from contacting his wife.
He returns to court March 14 to
enter a Superior Court plea and
potentially set a jury trial date.

FasTrak rate increases.
The bridge district is facing a $142 mil-
lion decit over the next ve years. The toll
hikes approved this morning are projected
to raise $138 million over ve years.
District staff had drafted four toll hike
options that would raise between $93 mil-
lion and $138 million over ve years.
District staff had initially recommended

million, but the boards Finance Committee

Chinese media outlet uses racial slur at U.S. envoy
BEIJING A major Chinese government news service
used a racist slur to describe the departing American ambas-
sador in a mean-spirited editorial on Friday that drew wide-
spread public condemnation in China.
The article which called Gary Locke a rotten banana,
a guide dog for the blind, and a plague reected Chinese
nationalists acute loathing toward the first Chinese-
American to have been Washingtons top envoy to Beijing.
Lockes ethnic background particularly interested the
Chinese government and people. Locke won public applause
when he was seen carrying his own bag and ying economy
class but he drew criticism from Beijing as his demeanor was
an unwelcome contrast to Chinese ofcials privileges and
entitlements.
In Washington, top diplomat John Kerry paid tribute to
Locke as a champion of human dignity and a relentless
advocate for Americas values. Asked about the China News
Service commentary, State Department spokeswoman Jen
Psaki told reporters Friday: We are not going to dignify the
name-calling in that editorial with a response.
New Mexico radiation leak raises concerns
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. The radiation exposure of at
least 13 workers at a nuclear dump in a New Mexico salt bed
more than 2,000 feet below the ground has brought new
attention to the nations long struggle to nd places to dis-
pose of tons of Cold War-era waste.
The above-ground radiation release that exposed the work-
ers during a night shift two weeks ago shut down the facility
as authorities investigate the cause and attempt to determine
the health effects on the employees. The mishap has also
raised questions about a cornerstone of the Department of
Energys $5-billion-a-year program for cleaning up waste
scattered across the country from decades of nuclear-bomb
making.
With operations at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant on
hold, so are all shipments, including the last of nearly 4,000
barrels of toxic waste that Los Alamos National Laboratory
has been ordered to remove from its campus by the end of
June. Other waste from labs in Idaho, Illinois and South
Carolina is also without a home while operations are halted.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER
SAN FRANCISCO Small but
unusual outbreaks of tuberculosis,
measles and an extremely rare polio-
like disease in several regions across
California have set off concerns about
the risks of exposure. All the infec-
tious disease reports are actively being
investigated, and California health
ofcials say it is sheer coincidence
that they arose at the same time.
California Department of Public
Healths chief of the communicable
disease control division, James Watt,
assessed each of the diseases and
offered his tips about how to stay
healthy.
Even as the number of flu-related
fatalities is falling in the state, public
health officials warn that measles
cases are on the rise.
The virus, which is widespread out-
side the United States, spreads through
the air and results in symptoms includ-
ing a fever, cough and runny nose.
Watt said the best way to prevent
infection is to get vaccinated.
People may not realize but measles
is quite a common and serious disease
that can cause serious complications,
so I really encourage people to talk to
their doctors about the benets of vac-
cination, he said. Its not just a per-
sonal decision, but a choice not to vac-
cinate also increases the risk of dis-
ease transmission to other people.
The California Department of Public
Health had conrmed 15 measles cases
statewide as of Feb. 21, four in the San
Francisco Bay Area.
Two people were reported infected
with the virus in Contra Costa County,
one in Alameda County and one in San
Mateo County. An infected college stu-
dent from the University of California,
Berkeley, was one of the Contra Costa
County cases, but ofcials did not say
if the other victims were infected by
that person.

ing a cyberbullying from 7

SEVASTOPOL, Ukraine Armed men
described as Russian troops took control of
key airports in Crimea on Friday and
Russian transport planes flew into the
strategic region, Ukrainian ofcials said,
an ominous sign of the Kremlins iron hand
in Ukraine. President Barack Obama bluntly
warned Moscow there will be costs if it
intervenes militarily.
The sudden arrival of men in military uni-
forms patrolling key strategic facilities
prompted Ukraine to accuse Russia of a
military invasion and occupation a
claim that brought an alarming new dimen-
sion to the crisis.
In a hastily arranged statement delivered
from the White House, Obama called on
Russia to respect the independence and ter-
ritory of Ukraine and not try to take advan-
tage of its neighbor, which is undergoing
political upheaval.
Any violation of Ukraines sovereignty
and territorial integrity would be deeply
destabilizing, Obama said.
Such action by Russia would not serve the
interests of the Ukrainian people, Russia or
Europe, Obama said, and would represent a
profound interference in matters he said
must be decided by the Ukrainian people.
Just days after the world came to Russia
for the Olympic Games, that would invite
the condemnation of nations around the
world, Obama said. The United States will
stand with the international community in
afrming that there will be costs for any
military intervention in Ukraine.
He did not say what those costs might be.
Earlier Friday, Ukraines fugitive presi-
dent resurfaced in Russia to deliver a deant
condemnation of what he called a bandit
coup.
Appearing for the rst time since eeing
Ukraine last week, Viktor Yanukovych
struck a tone both of bluster and caution
vowing to keep ghting for the future of
Ukraine, while ruling out seeking Russian
military help.

SACRAMENTO The winter has been
rough on Sierra ski resorts, but this weeks
storms have them looking a lot more like
they usually do at this time of year.
Squaw Valley, which sits between Truckee
and the north shore of Lake Tahoe, received
22 inches of snow at its top elevations
between Wednesday, when the rst storm
hit, and midday Friday. Neighboring Alpine
Meadows reported 15 inches.
Amelia Richmond, a spokeswoman for
both resorts, said another foot of new snow
is expected by Saturday.
Richmond said the resorts had their best
weekends of the year over the Presidents
Day holiday and last weekend.
One of the best things about skiers and
snowboarders is that when it snows, theyll
come, she said. Were expecting another
great weekend with lots of skiers and riders
coming up to check out the fresh snow.
At Northstar California Resort, also near
Lake Tahoes north shore, 13 inches of
snow had fallen near the summit over the
last two days, spokeswoman Rachael
Woods said.
The snow is phenomenal, she said.
Im watching people getting off the lifts,
and all you see are huge smiles underneath
goggles.
Woods said she rode up the chairlift with a
San Francisco resident who played hooky
from work and drove 200 miles to the resort
Thursday night to cut fresh tracks Friday.
Nearly 2 feet of fresh snow had accumulat-
ed over the past two days at the 9,800-foot
summit of Kirkwood Mountain Resort,
south of Lake Tahoe near Carson Pass.
About 15 inches had fallen between
Wednesday and midday Friday at the
University of California Berkeleys Central
Sierra Snow Lab located near Donner
Summit.
All these (storm) events move us a little
higher up, but were still well below aver-
age, said researcher Randall Osterhuber.

WASHINGTON Bill Clintons aides
revealed concern early in his presidency
about the health care overhaul effort led by
his wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton, and later
about what they saw as a need to soften her
image, according to documents released
Friday. Mrs. Clinton now is a potential
2016 presidential contender
The National Archives released about
4,000 pages of previously condential doc-
uments involving the former presidents
administration, providing a glimpse into
the ultimately unsuccessful struggles of his
health care task force, led by the rst lady,
and other Clinton priorities such as the U.S.
economy and a major trade agreement.
Hillary Clintons potential White House
campaign has increased interest in Clinton
Presidential Library documents from her
husbands administration during the 1990s
and her own decades in public service. Afor-
mer secretary of state and New York senator,
Mrs. Clinton is the leading Democratic
contender to succeed President Barack
Obama, though she has not said whether she
will run.
Fridays documents included memos relat-
ed to the former presidents ill-fated health
care reform proposal in 1993 and 1994, a
plan that failed to win support in Congress
and turned into a rallying cry for
Republicans in the 1994 midterm elections.
As rst lady, Hillary Clinton chaired her
husbands health care task force, largely
meeting in secret to develop a plan to pro-
vide universal health
insurance coverage.
White House aides
expressed initial opti-
mism about her ability to
help craft and enact a
major overhaul of U.S.
health care.
The first ladys
months of meetings with
the Congress has pro-
duced a signicant amount of trust and con-
dence by the members in her ability to
help produce a viable health reform legisla-
tive product with the president, said an
undated and unsigned document, which was
cataloged with others from April 1993. The
document urged quick action, warning that
enthusiasm for health reform will fade over
time.
But the documents also showed the grow-
ing concerns among Clintons fellow
Democrats in Congress. Lawmakers, it said,
going to their home districts for the
August break are petried about having dif-
cult health care reform issues/questions
thrown at them.
Administration ofcials also wanted to
distance Hillary Clinton from a staff meet-
ing on the touchy subject of making health
care cost projections appear reasonable.
Top aides wrote an April 1993 memo saying
pessimistic cost-savings projections from
the nonpartisan Congressional Budget
Ofce were petrifying an already scared
Congress.
CBO has the very real potential to sink
an already leaking health reform ship, said
the memo, signed by Clinton aides Chris
Jennings and Steve Ricchetti, the latter
now a top aide to Vice President Joe Biden.
A White House and congressional meeting
meant to align budget assumptions with
CBO would be all staff, the memo said,
so we do not believe it appropriate that
Mrs. Clinton attend.
The documents also include detailed media
strategy memos written as aides tried to
soften Mrs. Clintons image.
Her press secretary, Lisa Caputo, encour-
aged the Clintons to capitalize on their
20th wedding anniversary as a wonderful
opportunity for Hillary and also suggested
she spend more time doing White House
events celebrating rst ladies of the past.
Placing Clinton in a historical context
may help to round out her image and make
what she is doing seem less extreme or dif-
ferent in the eyes of the media, Caputo
wrote in a lengthy August 1995 memo about
courting better press coverage as the presi-
dent looked toward re-election. It noted the
rst lady had an aversion to the national
Washington media.
Caputo also proposed the wild idea of
having Clinton do a guest appearance on a
popular sitcom of the day, Home
Improvement.
As the rst lady began her bid for a Senate
seat from New York in July 1999, adviser
Mandy Grunwald coached her with style
pointers and tips for handling annoying
questions from the media without appear-
ing testy. Grunwald said she was sure to be
asked about her husbands Senate impeach-
ment trial earlier that year.
The advice: Be real and acknowledge
that of course last year was rough.
As for Clinton himself, by the end of his
presidency he showed frustration with his
proposed farewell speech to the nation. He
told aides that he didnt think the drafts
included enough of his administrations
accomplishments.
Doesnt anybody care about me? he
asked aides during his nal days in ofce.
On the health care effort, by September
1993, Mrs. Clinton acknowledged the
obstacles in a Capitol Hill meeting with
House and Senate Democratic leaders and
committee chairs. I think that, unfortu-
nately, in the glare of the public political
process, we may not have as much time as
we need for that kind of thoughtful reec-
tion and research, the rst lady said, citing
this period of challenge.
The meetings also showed that Mrs.
Clinton was doubtful that a health care law
with a universal mandate requiring peo-
ple to carry health insurance would be
approved. That is politically and substan-
tively a much harder sell than the one
weve got a much harder sell, she told
congressional Democrats in September
1993, predicting it could send shock
waves through the currently insured pop-
ulation.
In 2007, when she ran for president,
Clinton made the individual mandate a
centerpiece of her American Health
Choices Plan, requiring health coverage
while offering federal subsidies to help
reduce the cost to purchasers.
The health care overhaul signed into law
by Obama in early 2010 carried a mandate
that all Americans must obtain health insur-
ance or pay a ne.
90s documents show Clintons health care concerns
South San Francisco, introduced legislation
that would prevent a similar debacle, offer-
ing various solutions to prevent a similar
situation, including requiring retesting hap-
pen earlier, requiring schools ll out seat-
ing charts, redening how the test adminis-
trators decide to cancel tests and requiring
standardized test providers to release inval-
idated test scores to colleges when there is
no evidence of student misconduct.
Parents like Christine Noma, whose son
is a junior at Mills, were disappointed by
the news, but not surprised.
The timing is suspect with legislation,
she said. I dont know whether it is in retal-
iation. As long as they change the seat-
ing, there does not seem to be any type of
systemic problem at Mills. The proctors are
well trained and it seems totally unfair and
arbitrary.
Meanwhile, Paul Seto, a Mills parent and
former Millbrae councilman, wasnt sur-
prised either.
They havent really been fair to Mills
students, he said.
A student involved in the effort to get
scores validated last summer, Brandon Ye,
graduated last year, and is now a freshman at
University of California at Berkeley. He
said he expected something like the decerti-
cation to happen.
I think they should have put more
thought in it and given the school another
chance instead of completely decertifying,
he said. It is quite unfortunate that College
Board is still continuing to cause inconven-
ience for students at Mills High School.
Arepresentative from Educational Testing
Service said a thorough investigation was
initiated in response to information volun-
tarily provided by a Mills student who com-
plained school personnel failed to comply
with specic seating guidelines. The repre-
sentative also said both ETS and the
College Board understood the frustration
and offered retests. College Board could not
be reached for comment on decertication.
The Mills Counseling Department will be
hosting a College Planning Night 6 p.m.-
7:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 5 in the
schools auditorium, 400 Murchison Drive
in Millbrae. Belzer will host a question and
answer session with students and parents
then.

OPINION 9
Create a fair and
sustainable Medicare system
Editor,
Congress is currently considering
legislation that would transform
Medicare. The SGR Repeal and
Medicare Provider Payment
Modernization Act of 2014 (H.R.
4015/S. 2000) would repeal the
Medicare sustainable growth rate
(SGR) formula and establish pay-
ment systems to support high-quali-
ty patient care. Congress must act
before the 2014 Medicare physician
payment cut of 24 percent April 1.
The SGR is a method employed by
the Centers for Medicare and
Medicaid Services to control
Medicare spending by ensuring that
the yearly increase in the expense
per Medicare beneficiary does not
exceed the growth in GDP. Although
Medicare physician payment rates
have barely moved since 2001, the
governments measure of inflation
in medical practice costs has risen
26 percent. This instability and
financial uncertainty have caused
many physicians to reduce the num-
ber of Medicare patients they see
and to delay investments in new
equipment and practice models that
would reduce costs while enhancing
the delivery of care.
To date, Congress has spent
$153.7 billion on 16 legislative
patches to the SGR formula, far
more than the cost of permanently
reforming the Medicare physician
payment system. The nation can no
longer afford to spend taxpayer
money on stopgap measures that
preserve a bad policy.
Congress has the opportunity to
put an end to the SGR and invest in a
21st century Medicare program
thats fair, sustainable and that sup-
ports access to high-quality care and
better health outcomes for patients
and the nation for generations to
come. Please join patients and
physician in urging Congress to
pass bipartisan SGR repeal legisla-
tion before March 31.

Really?
Editor,
In Mr. Kranens letter
Misconceptions of debt in the
Feb. 24 edition of the Daily Journal
stating that I have a common mis-
conception concerning our national
debt, he states that 1). we should
never pay it off; 2). people are
happy with the way we are managing
our debt; and 3). when U.S. securi-
ties come due we just need to refi-
nance the debt and continuously roll
it over. He actually goes on to say
that it is a bad idea to even consider
paying down our debt. I couldnt dis-
agree more.
Mr. Kranen needs to realize we pay
interest on this ballooning debt and
it is not some fictional number to be
ignored. As our debt service on this
borrowing grows, it uses a greater
percentage of our revenues, thereby
leaving less money for other things
like education, defense and social
programs. He is correct that we are
benefitting from low rates, but that
is because they are being artificially
manipulated by the Federal Reserve.
However, as short- and long-term
treasury rates increase, which we
need to assume they will, the debt
service will explode exponentially.
As foreign countries are the ones
buying our new debt, is it wise to let
countries like China have more and
more leverage and influence over us?
I dont think so.
You can either believe Mr.
Kranens point of view and not
worry about our soaring national
debt, or you can share my concern
about getting our debt under control
while we still have time. My only
hope is that you care one way or
another.

Death penalty
Editor,
As reported in the Daily Journal,
1,400 California inmates sentenced
to life imprisonment have been
released in just the last three years,
owing to budget considerations.
This is the nightmare I always
knew could happen and why I do not
support cessation of the death
penalty in California. We were
assured by anti-death penalty advo-
cates that a life sentence is worse
than death, and they would never see
a free light of day. The death penalty
is appropriate for the worst crimes,
such as child rape, murder, etc. There
is indisputable evidence that a life
sentence in many hundreds of cases
per year isnt.
Look on the bright side what is
the statistical chance that a released
child rapist would move in next
door?

Letters to the editor
Albuquerque (N.M.) Journal
M
ore than one in three peo-
ple in the United States is
obese, the category
beyond overweight, according to the
U.S. Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention. That increases the risk of
heart disease, stroke, diabetes and
some cancers. In New Mexico, at least
one person in 10 about 11 percent
of the states population has dia-
betes, strongly linked to being seden-
tary and overweight.
Anew study published in Mayo
Clinic Proceedings suggests an
answer as to why, and it has little to
do with Washington, D.C., policy or
medical insurance coverage.
Lead author Edward C. Archer, who
studies nutrition and obesity at the
University of Alabama, Birmingham,
tracked the movements of 2,600
adults age 20 to 74 to see what they
did all day.
It amounted to not a lot.
Obese women averaged about 11
seconds a day of vigorous exercise;
men and women of normal weight less
than two minutes a day. Archer says
its a real commentary on how
lifestyles have changed, with people
today living their lives from one
chair to another.
We didnt realize we were that
sedentary, he says. There are some
people who are vigorously active, but
its offset by the huge number of indi-
viduals who are inactive. I think
theyre living the typical life. They
drive their children to school, they sit
at a desk all day long, they may play
some video games and they go to
sleep.
And while a cornerstone of
Obamacare has been expanding access
to preventive care, that alone wont
tip the scales, as it were, on the seri-
ous health effects and costs of
11 seconds of exercise a day.
No level of Obamacare can cure sedentary U.S.
United we stand
S
an Mateo venture capitalist Tim Drapers idea to
split California into six states is moving forward,
with the green light given to collect signatures.
That this idea has gotten any traction at all shows just how
divided California has become. North versus south, inland
versus coast, farmer versus enviro and the list goes on.
However, there is one idea uniting citizens across the
state. Elected ofcials, both Democrat and Republican, and
statewide candidates from both parties have embraced it.
Farmers and tech titans agree.
Its time to stop Californias giant boondoggle. Its time
to stop the California High-Speed Rail Authority before it
does any more damage and get off the crazy train before its
too late.
Democratic Lt. Gov. Gavin
Newsom is the latest high-prole
elected ofcial to join the chorus
opposing high-speed rail. An
early advocate of the proposed
system, Newsom recently said, I
am not the only Democrat that
feels this way. I am one of the
few that just said it publicly.
Most are now saying it private-
l y.
This reversal reveals what is
happening in the California elec-
torate. Running for re-election
statewide, an astute politician
such as Newsom wouldnt radically reverse positions unless
he thought sticking with the old one would lose him a sig-
nicant number of votes.
Hes seen the polling, and it doesnt look good for high-
speed rail backers. Last fall, USC Donnsife/Los Angeles
Times released a poll of California registered voters show-
ing that 70 percent want a chance to vote on whether to
continue with the undernanced, poorly planned and costly
system. Seventy percent is a number that will grab the
attention of any politician and, given our states divisions,
that number is astoundingly high.
Gov. Jerry Browns Republican opponents (yes, there are
some running) have latched onto high-speed rail as a cam-
paign issue. Neel Kashkari has made cancellation of high-
speed rail a centerpiece of his campaign. As the one who
coined the moniker crazy train, he is urging supporters to
sign an open letter to Jerry Brown that raises other, more
pressing concerns including the 24 percent of Californians
living in poverty, and our schools ranking 46th in the
nation.
Similarly, Assemblyman Tim Donnelly, also running for
governor, introduced legislation that would have prohibited
federal and state funds from being used to nance the high-
speed rail project.
Locally, those in favor of upgrading Caltrain shouldnt
fear cancellation of the $34 million per mile train to
nowhere. Part of the price paid by high-speed rail propo-
nents in the 2012 legislative vote to move forward with
issuing of bonds was throwing money at Caltrain to secure
Peninsula and San Francisco legislators votes. It worked,
and despite erce local opposition, most of our elected of-
cials voted to issue the bonds.
Even though Sacramento County Superior Court Judge
Michael Kenny has halted the sale of high-speed rail bonds
(the timing of which may doom high-speed rail receiving
federal matching dollars), Caltrain already has the funds in
hand to implement Positive Train Control, the rst step in
the upgrade plan. Much of the remaining funds were assumed
to be funneled from the federal government, an assumption
that, given national political dynamics, looks highly
remote.
Several plans are on the table for what to do with the bond
funds if voters have their say and stop high-speed rail in its
tracks. The drought has brought into focus the need for more
water storage, delivery and conservation. Interestingly,
both Newsom, a San Francisco liberal, and Donnelly, a Tea
Party favorite, have suggested water infrastructure upgrades
as a more pressing need than Gov. Browns vanity project.
Moreover, just this week, Assembly Republicans released
their infrastructure plans, which would distribute high-speed
rail funds (assuming voter approval) between highway
maintenance and construction as well as port and freight
improvement projects.
In a state as divided as California, rarely does an issue
unite 70 percent of the voters. Rarely are liberal Democrats
and Tea Party favorites on the same page. Hardly ever do
farmers and the Sierra Club agree, yet they both demand that
the high-speed rail nancial nagling of slickster politi-
cians be stopped.
Standing united, Californians can get off the crazy train.
Staying united, Californians can move into a future free of
overhyped projects sucking billions into a sinkhole from
which there is no escape. We are divided on many issues, but
we stand united on stopping the governors vanity train
from leaving the station.

Big movers

NEWYORK After two months of
trading, the stock market is back where
it started.
The Standard & Poors 500 index rose
4.3 percent in February, the biggest
gain since October 2013, helped by
strong corporate earnings and a Federal
Reserve that seems to have Wall
Streets back at every turn. But the rise
in February must be taken in the con-
text that investors spent the month
making up the ground they lost in
January.
February looked a lot like January,
just moving in the opposite direction,
said Scott Clemons, chief investment
strategist with Brown Brothers
Harriman Wealth Management.
Investors are also now staring at a
stock market, while numbers-wise is
basically where it was on Jan. 1, that is
a lot more defensive than it was two
months ago.
Utilities and health care stocks
two traditional safe places for
investors because of their low volatili-
ty and higher-than-average dividends
are the biggest gainers so far this
year. Utilities are up 5.7 percent in
2014 and health care is up 6.6 percent.
Investor caution was also evident in
the bond market, which has done rea-
sonably well in the last two months.
The yield on the benchmark U.S. 10-
year Treasury note has fallen from 2.97
percent to 2.65 percent in the last two
months as investors returned to the rel-
ative safety of government debt. The
Barclays U.S. Aggregate bond index,
which tracks a broad mix of corporate
and government bonds, is up 1.6 per-
cent this year.
The sentiment now is, bonds may
not be as bad as I originally thought,
said Michael Fredericks, a portfolio
manager of the Multi-Asset Income
Fund at Blackrock.
Februarys rise came in spite of sever-
al economic reports that showed the
U.S. economy slowed in the previous
month.
It started with the January jobs
report, which showed employers only
created 113,000 jobs that month. It was
far fewer than economists had expected.
Other economic reports told a similar
story. Consumer condence, manufac-
turing and the housing market all fell
sharply in January.
Investors blamed the weather, and
rightly so. Many companies, particu-
larly retailers, said winter storms of the
past two months dramatically impacted
their business. Macys said that at one
time in January, 30 percent of its stores
were closed because of inclement
weather.
Home Depot had a similar story.
We dont like to use weather as an
excuse but we think we probably lost
$100 million in the month of January,
Home Depots chief nancial ofcer,
Carol Tome, said in a conference call
with investors this week. Atlanta was
frozen, for example. It was tough here.
Even with the economic concerns,
investors were able to set aside the
volatility of January for three reasons,
market watchers said.
First, corporate earnings for the
fourth quarter overall turned out to be
pretty good. Earnings at companies in
the S&P 500 index grew 8.5 percent
over the same period last year, accord-
ing to FactSet. Revenue growth also
picked up, albeit slightly.
The Federal Reserve, once again, also
came to the markets side. Janet Yellen,
who in February took over the role as
chair of the Federal Reserve, reafrmed
that the central bank plans to keep its
market-friendly, low interest rate poli-
cies in place for the foreseeable future.
Lastly, weather, by its very nature, is
temporary.
Spring will come, at some point, and
the winter storms that have kept busi-
nesses closed and consumers away from
stores will fade, investors say. All that
pent-up demand will help the economy
recover some of the ground lost in
January and February.
Strong February wipes out S&Ps January loss
Tokyo bitcoin
exchange files for bankruptcy
TOKYO The Mt. Gox bitcoin exchange in Tokyo
led for bankruptcy protection Friday and its chief exec-
utive said 850,000 bitcoins, worth several hundred mil-
lion dollars, are unaccounted for.
The exchanges CEO Mark Karpeles appeared before
Japanese TV news cameras, bowing deeply.
He said a weakness in the exchanges systems was
behind a massive loss of the virtual currency involving
750,000 bitcoins from users and 100,000 of the com-
panys own bitcoins.
That would amount to about $425 million at recent
prices.
Business brief
By Martin Crutsinger
WASHINGTON When the weather
warms up, so, too, will the U.S. econ-
omy.
That, at least, is the prevailing view
of economists, who shrugged off a
government report Friday that the
economy was weaker last quarter than
rst thought.
Severe winter weather is probably
slowing growth again this quarter. But
as the chill and snow fade into memo-
ry, long-delayed spending by con-
sumers and businesses could invigor-
ate the economy starting in spring.
Weather is having an impact on a
lot of the data, said Doug Handler,
chief economist at IHS Global Insight.
We will likely see a boost from pent-
up demand in coming weeks.
In the view of most analysts, the
snowstorms and extreme cold have
exerted a harmful but only temporary
effect on the economy. That belief
helps explain why Federal Reserve
Chair Janet Yellen signaled this week
that the Fed will likely continue reduc-
ing its stimulus for the economy
throughout 2014.
The Commerce Department said
Friday that the economy grew at a 2.4
percent annual rate last quarter, in part
because consumers didnt spend as
much as initially estimated. Initially,
Commerce had estimated that the econ-
omy expanded at a 3.2 percent rate in
the October- December quarter.
One reason the government initially
overestimated growth for last quarter
was that it didnt fully take account of
how much bad weather would dampen
spending on long-lasting goods such
as autos.
Last quarters increase in the gross
domestic product the economys
total output of goods and services
was the weakest showing since the
rst quarter of last year. And it was
down sharply from a 4.1 percent
growth rate in the third quarter.
Economists had long expected
growth to slow in the nal quarter of
2013 and the rst quarter this year
compared with the third quarter of last
year.
Hopes up for sunnier economy once winter fades

CUPERTINO Apple CEO Tim Cook
is still trying to convince shareholders
that the iPhone maker remains a step
ahead in the race to innovate, even
though recent performance of the com-
panys stock lags behind other technol-
ogy trendsetters.
In making his case Friday, Cook
struck a familiar refrain during Apples
annual shareholder meeting at the com-
panys Cupertino headquarters.
Cook promised that Apple Inc. is
working on new gadgets that will
expand the companys product line-up
beyond smartphones, tablets, music
players and personal computers without
divulging any details. He cited the com-
panys nearly $4.5 billion investment
in research and development during the
last scal year and the completion of 23
acquisitions in the past 16 months as a
precursor of the big things to come.
There is a ton of stuff going on,
Cook said.
On the nancial side, Cook told share-
holders that Apples board will
announce whether the company will
increase its dividend and spend more
money buying back its own stock by
the end of April. Money management is
a major issue for Apple because the com-
pany is sitting on nearly $159 billion
in cash, including $124 billion held in
overseas accounts to avoid U.S. taxes.
On the labor front, Cook pledged to
continue Apples ght for the rights of
the low-paid workers who build the
companys devices in overseas facto-
ries.

The future of the frontcourt for the
Burlingame boys basketball team looks
bright as sophomore forward Bassel
Mufarrah is the heir apparent to the graduat-
ing Nick Loew.
The future of the Burlingame backcourt? A
lot more cloudy.
While Mufarrah was the highlight for the
Panthers in their rst-round match up in the
Central Coast Section Open Division
against Riordan, scoring a team high 14
points, the lowlight was watching their
best player senior point guard Frankie
Ferrari limp off the court in pain late in
the third quarter.
Riordan took advantage of Ferraris
absence and pulled away from Burlingame in
the second half, recording a 61-44 victory.
I thought physically they took us out of
our offense, said Burlingame coach Pete
Harames. When Frankie went out, we had
to hope for the best.
Riordan was in the midst of a 15-0 run that
would bridge the third and fourth quarters
when Ferrari rolled his ankle and was forced
to the sideline with1:34 to play in the peri-
od and the Crusaders leading 48-38.
By the time Ferrari got back on the court
with 4:10 left in the game, Riordan was
comfortably ahead, 56-38.
(Our offense) is based on [Ferrari],
Harames said. When he went out, its not
like all of the sudden we can run the offense
we had last year.

BUFFALO, N.Y. Jhonas Enroth made
36 saves as the Buffalo Sabres beat the San
Jose Sharks 4-2 on Friday night, a few
hours after they traded goalie Ryan Miller
and captain Steve Ott.
Cody Hodgson, Brian Flynn, Matt
Moulson and Tyler Myers scored for
Buffalo, while Enroth played well in the
absence of Miller, who was dealt to St.
Louis along with Ott before warmups.
Miller was set to start his 541st career
game for the Sabres, but was pulled from the
lineup. Buffalo general manager Tim Murray
used the two veterans in his rst major
trade, acquiring Jaroslav Halak, forward
Chris Stewart, prospect William Carrier, a
rst-round pick in 2015 and a third-rounder
in 2016 from the Blues.
James Sheppard and Patrick Marleau
scored for San Jose.
The win gave Buffalo three straight wins
for the rst time since last April.
The Sabres opened the scoring on a
power-play goal 10:59 into the rst period,
as Antti Niemi couldnt hold on to
Hodgsons wrist shot. It was Hodgsons
15th goal and his rst since Jan. 28.
Enroth made a glove save of Matt Irwins
slap shot through trafc with under seven
minutes to play to keep Buffalo ahead. He
made another strong glove save 7:22 into
the second period when Marleau was left
uncovered in the slot.
Moments later, Myers beat Niemi off a
rush up the right side, but his shot clanked
off the cross bar.
After another pair of saves, Enroth was
beaten when Sheppard forced a puck
between the goaltenders legs after a shot
rebounded off the end boards.
The Sharks nished the second period
with a 31-13 advantage in shots on goal.

New York Knicks power forward Jeremy Tyler (4) and New York
Knicks shooting guard J.R. Smith (8) defend against Golden State
Warriors small forward Andre Iguodala.
By Brian Mahoney
NEW YORK Stephen Curry had 27
points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists in three
quarters, Klay Thompson added 25 points,
and the Golden State Warriors sent the frus-
trated New York Knicks to a fth straight
loss with a 126-103 victory Friday night.
Returning to the site of his sensational
shooting performance of a year ago, when
he scored a career-high 54 points on 11-of-
13 shooting from 3-point range, Curry
showed off his entire skill set in this one.
The NBAs assists leader made five 3-
pointers, as did backcourt mate Thompson.
The 6-foot-3 All-Star also grabbed nine
defensive rebounds in his fourth career
triple-double and third this season, bounc-
ing back from one of his worst performanc-
es of the season. He had a season low-tying
ve points on 2-of-10 shooting Wednesday
in a 103-83 loss to Chicago.
Golden State easily rebounded from that
defeat to win for the fth time in six games.
Carmelo Anthony had 23 points and 16
rebounds for the Knicks, blown out for the
second straight night in a season thats
starting to feel hopeless no matter what the
sorry Eastern Conference standings say.
They seem to know it, with an agitated
Tyson Chandler thrown out in the fourth
quarter after picking up two technical fouls,
the first for shoving Warriors backup
Marreese Speights.
New York is six games behind eighth-
place Atlanta.
The Knicks lost by 26 at Miami on
Thursday, but they were in that game in the
second half. This one was over long before
halftime, when fans booed them as they
trudged off to the locker room.
A couple of Fire Woodson! Fire
Woodson! chants broke out at Madison
Square Garden in an atmosphere that was
completely different from the Warriors visit
here on Feb. 27, 2013.
Currys performance that night was
breathtaking, even Knicks fans cheering
every time he pulled up in the second half.
But the Knicks managed to win the game,
pulling out a 109-105 victory after
Raymond Felton blocked one of Currys late
jumpers.
This time, Felton got a mixed reception
when he was introduced during starting line-
ups for his rst home game since his arrest
on felony weapons charges. And the Knicks
(21-38) never had any chance of winning,
losing for the eighth time in nine games.

PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. Golf is
starting to feel easy again for Rory McIlroy,
who bounced back from a sloppy start
Friday in the Honda Classic for a 4-under 66
that gave him his rst 36-hole lead on the
PGATour in 18 months.
Tiger Woods is making it look hard.
McIlroy recovered from two early bogeys
by running off six birdies in a 10-hole
stretch. He looked solid from tee-to-green,
hit putts with growing confidence and
wound up with a one-shot lead over Brendon
de Jonge.
I knew that with the way Im playing and
the condence in my ability, I would be able
to get those shots back, McIlroy said. I
didnt panic. I didnt try to do anything dif-
ferent. Just tried to keep playing the way I
was.
He was at 11-under 129.
Woods felt fortunate to still be playing.
He was over the cut line after scrambling for
a bogey on the 11th hole and wound up with
a 69 to make the cut on the number. Woods
hit only two greens over his last nine holes.
His lone birdie on the back nine was a chip-
in on the 13th after he missed the green with
a wedge.
It was a grind, theres no doubt about it,
Woods said. I didnt hit it very good. Just
one of those days where I fought out a num-
ber, which was good.
Because 79 players made the cut, there
will be another cut to top 70 and ties on
Saturday. Woods missed the 54-hole cut the
last time he played on the PGA Tour at
Torrey Pines.
And at least hes still playing the week-
end. That wasnt the case for Phil
Mickelson. Playing the Honda Classic for
the rst time in 12 years, he had a 71 to miss
the cut. So did Henrik Stenson, the No. 3
player in the world, with rounds of 73-76.
McIlroy knew the feeling a year ago,
when he took a steep fall from No. 1 in the
world while changing equipment and trying
to live up to high expectations, leading to
his snap decision to walk off the course after
26 holes last year at the Honda Classic.
A growing gallery in warm sunshine at
PGA National saw a familiar game the
McIlroy who won the Honda Classic two
years ago.
Swinging freely and putting beautifully,
McIlroy hit his stride on his back nine with
four birdies in ve holes, including the par-
5 third when he smashed a drive some 35
yards past Adam Scott and had only a 6-iron
into the green on the 539-yard hole.
De Jonge, who has never won on the PGA
Tour, played early in the afternoon when the
wind picked up and put eight birdies on his
card in a 64. He was tied for the lead when he
missed the green with a wedge on No. 9 and
made bogey. Even so, hell be in the last
group Saturday with McIlroy.
I think I might have got a little bit of
switch in the wind, de Jonge said.
Russell Henley had a 68 and was three
shots behind. Russell Knox of Scotland had
the low round Friday at 63 and was four
shots back along with Lee Westwood (65).
But the focus is clearly on McIlroy, who
each week looks to be getting better.
This year is obviously a lot different,
McIlroy said. Got off to a good start. Im
condent. Im playing well. This is the sec-
ond straight tournament Ive opened with a
63, so if I can keep building on these good
starts, then hopefully I can start convert-
ing.
After a 63 in Dubai, he said he was press-
ing too much in the nal round and wound up
in a tie for ninth.
Friday was another step in the right direc-
tion, despite two errant tee shots on the
11th and 12th holes that led to bogeys.

SPRING TRAINING
By Rick Eymer
PHOENIX Derek Norris hit a tying,
two-run, homer in the eighth inning and the
Oakland Athletics scored on a wild pitch in
the ninth to beat the split-squad San
Francisco Giants 7-6 on Friday.
Brandon Crawford and
Hector Sanchez each
drove in two runs and top
pitching prospect Edwin
Escobar threw two per-
fect innings with a
strikeout for the Giants.
Im nowhere near
where I want to be,
Crawford said. I still
have to get my timing
back and feel things out a
little bit.
Jarrod Parker, in line to be the As starter
on opening day, lasted only 1 1-3 innings.
He allowed six runs on ve hits, a walk and
a hit batter.
It was good to get out there and get the
different feeling, Parker said. Pitching to
hitters and then coming in here, the speed is
up a little bit. You want to keep the same
tempo.
Brandon Belt and Gary Brown each added
two hits and drove in a run for the Giants.
Stephen Vogt and Jed Lowrie drove in runs
for the As .
The Giants scored all their runs in the rst
two innings. Sanchez hit a double into right
field to score two runners in the first,
Crawford tripled into the right-center eld
gap to score two runners and Belt singled
home Crawford.
Sam Fuld tripled and scored on Lowries
sacrice y in the fourth. Vogt singled home
Daric Barton in the fth.
STARTING TIME:
Athletics: Like a lot of proven pitchers,
Parker wasnt fretting over a shaky line in
spring training.
I was making the same delivery when I
wanted but I wasnt executing, he said. I
really wanted to get back used to the game
feeling. Its tough to simulate that with live
batting practice. Its a good time to nd out
where Im at.
WHATARELIEF
As lefty Sean Doolittle also made his
spring debut, recording a pair of strikeouts
in a perfect inning.
Ive been a couple of days behind so it
was good to get out there, said Doolittle,
who is working to add a slider and changeup
to his repertoire. All the work Ive done in
the side sessions I executed. Theyve come a
long way and its good to see they actually
work.
GETTING THE BATS LOOSE
Neither Belt nor Crawford feels particular-
ly uid in the batters box, though both hit-
ters got solid results.
Im starting to feel comfortable in the
box, Crawford said. It usually takes the
rst week to see all the pitches.
Crawford was an early arrival to camp this
spring, specically to iron out things with
his swing.
You can take all the batting practice you
want but its completely different when you
start facing pitchers, Crawford said.
Belt also arrived early and then had his
spring interrupted by ying to Florida for
an arbitration hearing that never happened.
He returned to Arizona with a one-year con-
tract in hand and seemed to be making solid
contact right away.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. San Franciscos
Madison Bumgarner allowed one hit in two
scoreless innings in his rst spring train-
ing outing as he prepares for a his rst
opening-day start, and a
San Francisco Giants
split squad defeated the
Milwaukee Brewers 4-3
Friday.
Bumgarner, slated to
pitch the opener at
Arizona on March 31,
struck out two and walked
none.
Milwaukees Yovani
Gallardo, aiming for his
fifth opening-day start,
gave up an ineld hit, struck out one and
walked none.
Brewers manager Ron Roenicke was
impressed with the outing.
I really liked the way the way he
(Gallardo) threw the ball, Roenicke said.
He spotted his fastball really well. I really
liked his curveball.
Mark Minicozzis homer and Angel
Pagans sacrice y gave San Francisco a 2-
0 lead in the third against Tyler Thornburg.
Hector Gomez hit an RBI triple in the
ninth off George Kontos and scored on a
single by Matt Pagnozzi, who is with
Milwaukee on a minor league contract.
Giants reliever Brett Bochy, manager
Bruce Bochys son, gave up a home run to
Caleb Gindl for Milwaukees rst run.
CAUGHTATTHE PLATE
Catcher Buster Posey made his rst start
of the spring for the Giants and tagged a
runner out at the plate for the rst time
since Major League Baseball enacted a new
rule that will limit violent collisions at
home.
When the Brewers Jeff Bianchi, who
reached on a triple, made a bid to score on a
grounder to rst base by Scooter Gennett,
Posey took the throw from Minicozzi, set
up just a bit inside the baseline and slapped
a quick tag on Bianchi, who made a popup
slide.
STARTING TIME
Brewers: Gallardo was working on pitch
selection.
Mostly fastballs. I threw some curve-
balls for rst pitch, that was something I
was going to be working on, and even dou-
bled them up, rst one to Posey, and then to
(Michael) Morse, he said. Overall, it
went pretty good.

By Josh Dubow
SAN JOSE Just making it back to the
NHL after a freakish accident nearly ended
his career was accomplishment enough for
San Jose Sharks goaltender Alex Stalock.
Setting a franchise record for longest
scoreless streak and thriving on hockeys
big stage has made the long, grueling reha-
bilitation worthwhile.
Stalocks promising career nearly ended
three years ago this month when Dwight
King stepped on the back of his left leg with
a sharp skate, severing his nerve.
But after being forced to learn how to walk
and skate again, Stalock is playing even
better than he did before the injury and is a
big part of San Joses success this season.
This has always been my goal, Stalock
said. Its what I wanted to do from a young
age. I didnt want the injury to prevent me
from getting back. It was a goal for me to
get back to this level. There were a lot of
people involved in the situation, a lot of
people who put in a lot of work and time to
help me. I got lucky and everything kind of
healed.
The injury came just days after Stalock
made his NHL debut when Sharks backup
goalie Antero Niitymaki was sidelined by a
groin injury. Stalock relieved starter Antti
Niemi midway through a game against
Phoenix on Feb. 1, 2011, and earned the
win when the Sharks rallied from three goals
down to win 5-3.
Stalock was sent back to Worcester of the
AHL after that game to get some action
before he was supposed to rejoin the Sharks
in Boston. But fate intervened late in the
third period while Stalock was on his stom-
ach covering a loose puck.
King tried to jump over the goalie but
landed with one skate on the back of his leg
instead. Stalock was taken out of the game
and the teams medical staff determined that
the nerve that controls movement and feel-
ing in the lower leg, foot and toes had been
severed, putting Stalocks career in doubt.
I dont think anybody was putting a per-
centage on him coming back, said Sharks
assistant general manager Wayne Thomas,
who oversees the coaching of goalies in the
organization. The feeling was more nega-
tive from doctors and people in the know
with that type of nerve injury. It was sev-
ered. He had no feeling in his calf and foot.
After two operations back home in
Minnesota at the Mayo Clinic, Stalock had
to wait until the nerve grew back. He needed
to wear a brace on his leg for nearly four
months and had to learn how to walk all
over again.
It was about eight months until he could
wear skates again and nally got back out
on the ice.
Thats when I realized that I was actually
recovered and I was seeing positive
growth, he said. That was big.
Stalock nally got back into a game Jan.
21, 2012, for the Stockton Thunder of the
ECHL and spent the rest of that season and
most of last season in the minors.
He still carries around evidence of what he
has overcome in the form of a six-inch scar
on his leg and he struggles to keep his bal-
ance on uneven surfaces.
Luckily for Stalock, the ice is at and he
looks even better there than he did before
the injury thanks to extensive off-ice work
with Sharks goaltender development coach
Corey Schwab and Thomas.
It was a lot of movement and we worked
on a lot of leg stuff and tried to get stronger
and better balance and all that, Stalock
said. It wasnt the most fun, but I can say
today it was the most benecial work that I
put in.
Stalock began this year as the backup in
San Jose to Niemi and has slowly earned his
teammates and coaches trust and more
playing time with his performance before
the Olympic break.

turned up the pressure defensively over
the nal two periods, outscoring
Burlingame 32-16, including 21-10 in
the third period. AMufarrah bucket with
3:15 to play in third closed the
Burlingame gap to 41-38, but then the
Riordan defense came alive, jumping
the passing lanes, coming away with
steals and got its fast break going.
[Riordan] is just a step above, inten-
sity wise, said.
The Ugbaja brothers Jiday and
Chiefy ate the Panthers alive in the
second half. They combined to score 39
points and had 11 of the teams 15
points during the Crusaders decisive
run. Jiday Ugbaja nished with a game
high 25 points.
It was the only time in the game the
Panthers failed to match at Riordan run
with one of their own. Ferrari kept
Burlingame in the game in the rst two
quarters. The Crusaders came out on re
to start the game, knocking down four
3-pointers in the rst eight minutes as
they jumped out to a 10-2 lead less than
halfway through the quarter.
The Crusaders eventually pushed their
rst-quarter lead to 17-6 before Ferrari
came alive. He knocked down a oater
in the lane, drained a pull-up jumper and
then rained in a 3-pointer to close the
Burligame decit to 17-13 with less
than a minute to play.
Riordan started the second quarter the
same it opened the game. The Crusaders
came out and scored seven points in two
minutes to take a 24-14 lead, eventually
pushing it to 27-18 with 4:25 left in the
half.
Back came the Panthers, this time
with Ferrari serving as a distributor as
the Burlingame frontcourt of Loew and
Mufarrah came alive. The two combined
for 10 of the Panthers14 second-quarter
points as they closed the half on a 10-2
run to cut the Crusaders lead to just one,
29-28 at half.
Ferrari had two phenomenal assists to
Mufarrah during run, the second of
which was a no-look, over-the-shoulder
dart to Mufarrah, who converted the
easy layup.
Loew put the Panthers up 30-29 on
the rst bucket of the second half and
about a minute later, Justin Gutangs
baseline jumper regained the lead for the
Panthers, 32-30.
It would be their last lead of the game.
Jiday Ugbaja sank a 3 with 6:23 left in
the third quarter to put the Crusaders
ahead 33-32 and they steadily pulled
away the rest of the game.
While Burlingame was disappointed
to lose, it wasnt a devastating loss. If
there is a silver lining, its the fact the
Panthers season is not over. Unlike all
the other divisions, the Open Division
is a double-elimination tournament and
by virtue of qualifying for the Open,
they automatically qualied for the
Northern California tournament as well.
Its not the end of the road, Harames
said.
And then, quoting long-time Bay Area
radio host Don Sherwood, Harames
added: Out of the mud grows the lotus.
Or something like that.

arning to all high school stu-
dents: An obsession is spread-
ing. If you havent already been
sucked in, then itll get you any day now.
And even if it doesnt get you, it is getting
everyone around you and that will make
you part of its drudgery. It is apparent that
an epidemic-like xation
with test scores has
developed throughout
the American high
school educational sys-
tem.
Teachers, students,
parents and colleges
seem to assume that
high test scores on stan-
dardized tests of basic skills equates with a
good education, which is utterly false.
Ones ability to answer a series of ques-
tions over a period of 25 minutes is not an
accurate representation of the span of ones
knowledge. High school education needs to
be focused on developing life skills and the
understanding of core subjects, not the
memorization of test-taking strategies. If
our current method continues, the difference
between training and educating will become
increasingly unclear. Our generation and
ones to come need to be attracted to receiv-
ing an education, not repelled by it or fear-
ful of it, thinking that it means only
menial work, test preparation and test-tak-
ing. The education that high-schoolers
receive needs to be worthwhile and unfor-
gettable, not only useful when taking stan-
dardized tests. Knowing how to bubble-in a
Scantron and solve timed math problems
wont do one much good when one is an
adult who is dealing with the world outside
of high school. As a junior, I feel that there
are many important life skills that high
school education does not cover, such as
how to pay bills, buy a house and enroll in
Obamacare.

your knowledge?

DAILY JOURNAL CORRESPONDENT
After she was introduced as a comic book
character in 1941, Wonder Woman became
the symbol of a new kind of feminism that
paired traditional female qualities with
greater strength, power and independence.
Playwright Carson Kreitzer looks at this
characters origin and inuence in her new
play, Lasso of Truth, being given its
world premiere by Marin Theatre Company.
Wonder Woman was created by William
Moulton Marston, who was a psychiatrist
and inventor, among other things. He is
credited with inventing a machine that
measured systolic blood pressure as way of
determining if a person was telling the
truth. It was the forerunner of todays poly-
graph, or lie detector.
Kreitzer calls him The Inventor (Nicholas
Rose). Hes happily married to The Wife
(Jessa Brie Moreno), a strong, practical,
professional working woman.
His seductive assistant, The Amazon (Liz
Sklar), becomes involved in a threesome
with the couple. Part of their relationship
includes consensual bondage.
In the meantime, a separate story emerges
as a contemporary young woman, The Girl
(Lauren English), talks about how much she
was inuenced by Wonder Woman both in
the comics and in the TVcharacter portrayed
by Lynda Carter.
Shes so fascinated with the superheroine
that she goes to a comic book store run by a
collector, The Guy (John Riedlinger). She
wants to buy an original copy of the All-Star
Comics in which Wonder Woman first
appeared.

Son of God, spun out of the hugely
successful The Bible miniseries, plays
up the political maneuvering that led to
the crucifixion. It won an endorsement
from the Anti-Defamation Leagues
Abraham Foxman, one of the Jewish lead-
ers who denounced Mel Gibsons 2004
blockbuster Passion.
Clearly we were aware of the controver-
sy that had been created around that lm,
actress and executive producer Roma
Downey said in a recent interview. If
everything begins with intention, our
heart on Son of God was to nd the places
that we could bring people together.
Gibson famously self-nanced and dis-
tributed his ultra-violent Passion in
2004. It became a box ofce hit but was
criticized by some reviewers and religious
leaders for its depiction of Jews.
Downeys husband, The Voice and
Survivor producer Mark Burnett, said the
Christian filmmaking team reached out
specically to other faiths to tell the story
of the life of Jesus played with an air of
bemused dignity by Portuguese actor Diogo
Morgado without causing offense.
It just took a lot of work and a lot of time
and a lot of listening over a number of years
to see everybodys point of view and how
to not take the teeth out of the story the
dynamic drama from the story but be
sensitive across groups, Burnett said.

Gloria Steinem is a quasi-character, seen
in cartoon-like videos created by Kwame
Braun. Graphics by Jacob Stoltz also pro-
pel the play.
The two stories unfold on a stark set
designed by Annie Smart with often dark,
moody lighting by Jim French and equally
moody music and sound by Cliff Caruthers.
The plays title, Lasso of Truth, refers
to a mythological, magic lariat of
unbreakable, pure gold that can compel
absolute truth from any man or god con-
fined within it, according to MTC. It
might also refer to the band that The
Inventor applied to measure systolic blood
pressure. Still another connection might
be the ropes used for the threesomes
bondage.
Directed by artistic director Jasson
Minadakis in a style appropriately remi-
niscent of cartoons, the two-act MTC pro-
duction is well acted all the way around
with strong production values. The basic
plot is intriguing, made more so by
informative program notes.
Running about two and a half hours, the
play has sections that could be tightened,
such as those with The Inventors
machine.
Overall, though, its fascinating, espe-
cially since The Inventor, The Wife and
The Amazon are based on real people who
led unusual lives, to say the least.
Lasso of Truth will continue at Marin
Theatre Company, 397 Miller Ave., Mill
Valley, through March 16. For tickets and
information call (415) 388-5208 or visit

Because theres very different interpreta-
tions across the Catholic faith and the
Protestant faith and the Jewish faith.
Using footage shot during production of
History Channels ten-part miniseries The
Bible, the film being released Friday
spends much of its nal half examining
maneuvering by Jerusalems military gover-
nor, Pontius Pilate, and Judean high priest
Caiaphas.
Its like House of Cards in many ways,
Burnett said. Theyre all humans living
their lives ... Pilate is scared of Caesar and
what Rome might do. Caiaphas is scared of
Pilate and losing the whole temple and their
faith. Its a real political thriller with ten-
sion which explodes at Passover in
Jerusalem.
Burnett credits his miniseries, which gar-
nered strong ratings and broke DVD and Blu-
ray sales records last year, with this years
flurry of biblical films from major
Hollywood studios.
Youve got to believe that the enormity
of The Bible series had other biblical pro-
ductions speed up, he said.
Darren Aronofskys take on Noah, star-
ring Russell Crowe, is coming next month,
and Ridley Scotts Exodus, with Christian
Bale, is due out in December.
BIBLE
Im not implying that high schools and
colleges should entirely focus on our ability
to ll a gas tank, buy groceries, book an air-
line ticket or hotel online or manage ones
nances certainly examples of very
important skills for a practical adult. Agood
education should allow us to make our way
through those challenges, but also teach us
how to debate an issue, speak publicly with
condence, develop presentations and analy-
ses, conduct research to nd solutions to
problems, use both discipline and creativity
to change the world, work in teams, lead
when leadership is needed and ... well, the
list goes on. We are getting that education
from our parents, teachers, group projects,
term papers, social interactions and, to some
degree, memorization and test-taking. But do
memorization and test-taking skills really
indicate how knowledgeable we are? One
who is not always a good test-taker should
not particularly feel that ones education is
lacking. I can appreciate the need to grade
students so they know not only how they
compare to others but also how they are pro-
gressing (or not) versus norms, but an
overemphasis on test scores might be miss-
ing the point of an education wouldnt
you agree? (This was a test question by the
way ... how did you do?)
Instead of worrying so much about test
scores, high school and college communi-
ties need to worry about the quality of the
education that their students are receiving. It
was Sir Francis Bacon who said, Knowledge
is power possessing true knowledge of
the world and how it works is the gateway to
a satisfying career and to a successful future.
Ill be honest that, as a high school student,
I cant truly understand how to make use of it
Im still learning. See, thats the point
my inability to pinpoint an example or de-
nition of the phrase in a test mode doesnt
mean that I havent learned to appreciate the
meaning and importance of it.
Heres a test for you:
Of the choices given, what is the best
interpretation of the phrase, Knowledge is
power?
A). Knowledge weighs a lot, so carry a big
backpack.
B). Learning is important, but gaining
power is the real motivator.
C). Knowledge can be measured because we
know power can be.
D). All of the above.
E). None of the above.
Correct answer: You know me better than
that!

Someone needs to come forward.
Brians brother Richard Butler
believes Brian just needed space. Brian
had recently searched Is it a crime to
run away on his computer, his family
says.
My theory is he ran a diversion,
Richard Butler said. I dont care how
not right he was thinking. He wouldnt
have went up there and jumped off any
cliff. He just wanted to get sleep and
rest.
Brians brother Kevin Butler says
Brians friend Mike Murtha was the
last person to see him before he went
missing.
Brian told him, Dont believe what
they say, I just need to get off the grid
for a while, Kevin Butler said.
So far, Brians family and friends
have created a Facebook page called
Find Brian Butler and have raised
$4,000 to help nd him. They are cur-
rently trying to gure out what to put
the money toward and are considering
hiring a private investigator. They
said theyve put up iers everywhere
from the Peninsula down to Santa Cruz
and have volunteers out searching for
Brian.
Brian worked from home doing
Internet security sales for a company
called FishNet Security. Richard Butler
said Brian was feeling overwhelmed,
didnt want to have to worry about
sales and wanted a normal job. Brian
had recently invested about $10,000
in a rap production, acting and helping
produce a video, Richard Butler said.
Ultimately, the rapper didnt like the
footage and Brian felt like he had wast-
ed his time, Richard Butler said.
He wanted to get out of it (Internet
security sales) do something he was
more passionate about, Fields said.
He was kind of trying to purge him-
self. He was a comedian. Hes been
through so much, but he always wanted
to know how you were doing and thats
why I think Brian might be out there.
Brian attended Half Moon Bay High
School and then Hillsdale High
School. His family and friends say the
disappearance of Brian is taking its
toll on them.
This has been devastating, Kevin
Butler said. I was staying over there
with him a lot; he just wanted some-
body to take care of him. He was so
positive. He always took it upon him-
self to be the rock of the family, espe-
cially after our moms death and he
always trying to get our dad healthy.
Brian Butler is described as standing
5 feet 8 inches tall, weighing 155
pounds and having brown hair and
eyes. He was last seen wearing a blue T-
shirt and jeans.
We just want you to come home,
Brian, Richard Butler said. Youre
not in trouble.
For updates on the case and to get in
contact about helping the family, visit
f a c e book. c om/ f i ndbr i a nbut l e r.
Anyone with information or who sees
Brian should contact Detective
Lisandro Lopez at 363-4055 or the
Sheriffs Ofce Anonymous Tip Line at
(800) 547-2700. The Sheriffs Ofce
is still actively searching for Brian,
but there is no new information on the
case, said Rebecca Rosenblatt, public
information ofcer at the San Mateo
County Sheriffs Ofce.

writing center at College of San Mateo
where she met her second husband
Mike Schneider.
I did enjoy working with students
and decided to go back to school and
become a teacher, she said.
She began teaching the journalism
class 26 years ago when the last advi-
sor for The Burlingame B retired. At
the time, she said she knew nothing
about journalism but wanted to pick up
an extra class so she could stay at the
school.
Journalism will be the hardest to
walk away from, she said. I wish I
had been a journalism staff member
when I was in high school. You learn
so much more about the high school
and community.
One thing that has changed over the
years at the newspaper is the technolo-
gy, she said. She remembers using an
old small Apple computer and
Pagemaker. Theyve since moved to
Google Docs, InDesign and Adobe for
creating the paper.
My most proud moment was when
two students created an app (for the
newspaper), McLaughlin said.
Theyre so bright.
She does like to keep herself out of
the students work in some ways
though.
This is their newspaper, she said.
I encourage them to be independent
thinkers, to be morally responsible
and that they think before they leap.
My advice to students is be fair, be
clear, be interesting.
Past students include Glee actress
Dianna Agron and professional base-
ball player Scott Feldman.
The timing is right for her retire-
ment, McLaughlin said. She plans on
spending time with her four grandsons
and two step-granddaughters, travel,
research the history of Burlingame
High for a potential book and read.
Whats forcing me out of teaching
is grading papers, it always hangs
over my head, she said. Its not a
way to live. Its also the large class
sizes in English that makes it hard to
work with students.
She said she does plan on writing an
end-of-the-year column for the
Burlingame B.

Burlingame B visit

Prosecutors charged Huertamartin
with one count of felony animal abuse
and misdemeanor counts of permitting

of the amputation of the birds, said
District Attorney Steve Wagstaffe.
On Friday, Huertamartin pleaded not
guilty to all charges and did not waive
his right to a speedy trial. Bail was set
at $50,000 and he was ordered back to

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) Your diligence will
help you be an effective advocate for your favorite
cause. Proceed methodically, and set realistic
goals. Offer others the opportunity to assist you,
and you will succeed.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) Discretion must be
used when dealing with others. Insisting that your
colleagues agree with your opinions will cause
friction. Its advisable to let some of your thoughts
remain unspoken.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Luck is with you. If you
follow your hunches, you will encounter a pleasant
surprise. Dont allow negative remarks to discourage
you. A romantic adventure is in your future.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Make your intentions
clear. Pursue your challenges vigorously to achieve
amazing results. Dont let distractions interfere. Aim
high and proceed with condence and courage.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) You have the power
to adjust circumstances that you find disagreeable.
Follow the advice of a trusted friend regarding your
professional life. Refrain from involving yourself in
emotional scenes.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Dont allow petty jealousies
and unfounded fears to get in the way of your romantic
life. Express your feelings truthfully and emphasize
your intentions. A commitment can be made.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Spend time with
someone special. Lighthearted fun will be the perfect
thing to perk you up. Your carefree attitude will be
contagious and will attract positive attention.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Something or
someone is making your life miserable. Its not
the responsibility of others to satisfy your needs.
Dont be reluctant to distance yourself from an
unpleasant or disagreeable situation.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Creativity will be
required in order to fulfill all of your obligations.
Family matters and outside interests are both
competing for your time. Ingenuity and adaptability
will solve your problem.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Someone may
try to make you appear untrustworthy. Dont make
promises that you cant keep, and think carefully
before committing to any organization or activity. Your
integrity could suffer as a result.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Open your mind to
new possibilities. Opportunities for love and romance
are on the horizon. In addition, you may be given the
chance to share in a protable nancial enterprise.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) Circumstances in
your personal life have you feeling confused and
unsatisfied. Take a close look to discover what is
troubling you. You can then take steps to correct
the issue.
