Lawsuit prompts private student information disclosure


Deadline looms for parents to oppose release of sensitive data such as Social Security numbers, test scores
By Austin Walsh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Concerned parents looking to


maintain the privacy of previously confidential student information have roughly one month left
to file their objection to the court
ordered release of sensitive data.
The pending disclosure of pri-

vate student information such as


Social Security numbers, addresses, test scores, mental health
records, addresses and more for
roughly 10 million students
across the state comes as the result
of a lawsuit levied against the
California
Department
of
Education.
Those hoping to preserve the

privacy of their childs information are encouraged to submit a


written objection to the disclosure
before an April 1 deadline.
Though no San Mateo County
schools are involved in the lawsuit, which was brought by parents in the Morgan Hill Unified
School District, local officials
feel it is imperative parents stay

informed regarding their opportunity to protect information they


may feel should be kept private.
Molly Barton, assistant superintendent of the San Mateo-Foster
City Elementary School District,
said school officials are working
with campus administrators and
parents to keep all concerned parties educated on the issue.

We feel strongly that, between


the information we have provided
to the principals and PTA, parents
should have a choice of what they
want to do, she said.
The San Mateo-Foster City
Elementary School District has

Judge sentences former state


senator for accepting bribes
By Sudhin Thanawala
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO A federal


judge sentenced former state senator Leland Yee on Wednesday to
five years in prison after he
acknowledged in a plea deal that he
accepted thousands of dollars in
bribes and discussed helping an
undercover FBI agent buy automatic weapons from the Philippines.

Senior District Court Judge


Charles Breyer called the weapons
allegations against Yee a gun
control advocate unfathomable
and said it was frightening that Yee
would be willing to go entirely
against his public position on
guns in exchange for money.
I dont feel I should be lenient,
Breyer said during the hearing.

U.S. immigration will get priority


on inmates released from prison
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON Inmates wanted for


deportation when they are released from federal prison will be turned over to U.S. immigration authorities rather than local law
enforcement agencies with outstanding warrants, Attorney General Loretta Lynch
announced Wednesday.
The policy change comes less than a year
after the fatal shooting of Kate Steinle, 32,
in San Francisco by an immigrant who was
on the streets after local police ignored a
request from federal authorities to hold him
for deportation proceedings.
The change announced by Lynch in testimony before a House Appropriations subcommittee calls for the Bureau of Prisons to
first give Immigration and Customs
Enforcement the option to take inmates facing deportation into custody. She said local
law enforcement agencies could still get the
immigrant for prosecution on other crimes,
but we would have to have assurances that

ICE would also then be


able to get the individual
back.
Steinle was shot by
Juan Francisco LopezSanchez as she walked on
a pier with her father.
Lopez-Sanchez, who had
been deported five times,
Loretta Lynch was sent to San
Francisco after being
released from federal prison because local
authorities had a warrant. They decided not
to prosecute him and released him.
Lopez-Sanchez has pleaded not guilty to
second-degree murder and other charges. He
said the shooting was accidental.
The case focused attention on immigrantfriendly communities with policies calling
for local authorities to not cooperate with
federal immigration officials.
San Franciscos newly elected sheriff, Vicki
Hennessy, said she needs details on how the
policy will be enforced.

Speaker: Legal steps


to stop Obama from
closing Guantanamo
By Andrew Taylor
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON House Speaker


Paul Ryan said Wednesday
Republicans are taking legal steps
to stop President Barack Obama
from closing the U.S. prison at
Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, a day after
the president unveiled his plan to
shutter the facility and move the
detainees to the United States.
Ryan told reporters that lawmakers have the votes to block
Obamas plan in Congress and
enough votes to override any veto.
Separately,

Wisconsin

preparing our legal challenge to
ensure the prison remains open and
detainees arent moved to the U.S.
Earlier this month, House
Republicans awarded the Jones Day
law firm a $150,000 contract to
perform the legal work in case
Obama tries to move Guantanamo
detainees to federal prisons.
These detainees cannot come to
American soil, Ryan said.

opposition in
Congress, where Republicans and
some Democrats maintain there is
no alternative and argue they dont
want these detainees transferred to
U.S. prisons, even maximum security facilities.
Under Obamas plan, roughly 35
of the 91 current prisoners will be
transferred to other countries in the
coming months, leaving up to 60
detainees who are either facing trial
by military commission or have
been determined to be too dangerous to release but are not facing
charges.
Those detainees would be relocated to a U.S. facility.

by Congress that blocks the president from transferring Guantanamo

White House considering Nevada


Gov. Sandoval for Supreme Court
By Mary Clare Jalonick
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON The White


House is considering Republican
Gov. Brian Sandoval of Nevada as
a possible nominee to the
Supreme Court, two people familiar with the process said
Wednesday.
The nomination of a Republican
would be seen as an attempt by
President Barack Obama to break
the Senate GOP blockade of any of
his choices. Senate Majority
Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky.,

has said his 54member GOP


caucus
is
opposed
to
holding confirmation hearings or vote on
Obamas pick,
insisting that
Brian Sandoval the choice rests
with the next
president.
The officials declined to be
named because they werent
authorized to speak publicly.
Mari St. Martin, Sandovals

communications director, said


Wednesday that the governor hasnt been contacted by the White
House.
Neither Gov. Sandoval nor his
staff has been contacted by or
talked to the Obama administration regarding any potential vetting for the vacancy on the U.S.
Supreme Court, she said.
Sandoval met with Senate
Democratic Leader Harry Reid on
Monday in Washington while he
was in town for a meeting of the
National
Governors
Association.

Pelosi,
D-Calif.,
criticized
Republicans for spending taxpayer
dollars on the issue.
Republicans must stop playing
politics with our national security
and stop awarding no-bid, taxpayer-funded contracts to politicallyconnected Washington lawyers to
the tune of hundreds of dollars an
hour, Hammill said.
In the Senate, Armed Services
Chairman John McCain dismissed

the plan as incomplete and said


GOP senators would join their
House counterparts on any legal
challenge.
Absolutely, McCain told
reporters at a news conference,
adding that Obama has a proclivity to act by executive order.

said the Senate would hold hearings
on Obamas plan in the coming
weeks.

Judge blocks Gov. Browns prison population plan


SACRAMENTO A state judge on Wednesday blocked
Gov. Jerry Browns proposed ballot initiative to reduce

Sacramento County Superior Court

Attorney General Kamala Harris from

The court finds that the attorney general abused her discretion, Chang said, ruling that the amendments radically

What the amendments did was the type of mischief the
Legislature had in mind when it required that amendments

GOP barrels toward Super Tuesday


By Alanna Durkin Richer
and Calvin Woodward
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

VIRGINIA
BEACH,
Va.

Republicans are barreling toward Super


Tuesday with another debate in the offing and Donald Trumps opponents
reaching for perhaps their last best
chance to knock him off stride for the
presidential nomination.
Expect a nasty turn, Trump warned, as
if the roiling GOP race were anything
but that already.
The New York billionaire predicted
that the relative civility between Marco
Rubio and himself would fall away in
the frantic grasp for hundreds of convention delegates in the 11 states that
hold Republican primaries Tuesday.
Even John Kasich, a trailing contender whose calling card has been a
positive campaign, went sharply negative Wednesday in a campaign broadside against Rubio, the Florida senator
who is soaking up Republican establishment support and thereby threatening to starve Kasichs effort of its
remaining oxygen.
Trump exercised bragging rights with
trademark gusto after Nevada handed
him his third straight victory the night
before.
Relaxed on stage at Virginias Regent
University, Trump fielded questions
from Christian conservative figure Pat

Robertson, ticking
off Obama administration executive
orders he wants to
reverse as president
and joking about his
recent dustup with
the pope.
He said earlier he
tone down
John Kasich might
his
contentious
rhetoric if he makes it to the White
House or not, since right now it
seems to be working pretty well.
And what of Rubio?
So far hes been very nice and I think
Ive been very nice to him, Trump said
on NBCs Today show. We havent
been in that mode yet but probably itll
happen. He meant attack mode.
On the Democratic side, Hillary
Clinton scored the endorsement of
Nevadas Harry Reid, the partys Senate
leader, in advance of a primary Saturday
in South Carolina, where she looks
strong. She prevailed in the Nevada
Democratic caucuses days before the
GOP contest there, dulling rival Bernie

Tuesday of crucial importance to him.
On Tuesday:
Republicans will award 595 delegates in 11 state races, with 1,237 delegates needed to clinch the nomination.
Democrats will award 865 delegates
in 11 states and American Samoa, with

2,383 needed for the


nomination.
The election calendar suggests that
if Trumps rivals
dont slow him by
mid-March,
they
may
not
ever.
Delegate totals so
far: 82 for Trump,
Ben Carson
17 for Ted Cruz, 16
for Rubio, 6 for Kasich and 4 for Ben
Carson.
For Republicans, Nevada offered little evidence Republicans are ready to
unite behind one strong alternative to
Trump, who many in the party fear is
too much of a loose cannon to win in
November.
Mainstream Republicans who dont
like Trump are also in large measure
cool on Cruz. With Jeb Bush out of the
race and time short, they have begun
gravitating to Rubio, long a man of
promise in the race but one who has yet
to score a victory.
The Florida senator edged Cruz, a
Texas senator, for second place in
Nevada, and its clear his time is at hand
if hes to have one.
With Bush gone, the GOP debates
have lost a prime Trump critic, though
Cruz has been a fierce antagonist at
times and Rubio faces pressure to confront the billionaire more directly
before its too late.

Feds want proof for Affordable Care Act


exchange special enrollment windows
By Tom Murphy

When people apply for coverage through HealthCare.gov and state insurance exchanges, a
behind-the-scenes electronic system called the data services hub pings federal agencies such
as Social Security, IRS and Homeland Security to verify their personal details.

Probe shows HealthCare.gov


passive on heading off fraud
By Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON With billions in taxpayer dollars at stake, the Obama administration has taken a passive approach to
identifying potential fraud involving the
presidents health care law, nonpartisan
congressional investigators say in a report
released Wednesday.
While the Government Accountability
Office stopped short of alleging widespread
cheating in President Barack Obamas signature program, investigators found that the
administration has struggled to resolve eligibility questions affecting millions of initial applications and hundreds of thousands
of consumers who were actually approved
for benefits.
The agency administering the health law
the Centers for Medicaid and Medicare
Services has assumed a passive
approach to identifying and preventing
fraud, the GAO report said. In a formal written response, the administration agreed
with eight GAO recommendations while
maintaining that it applies best practices
to fraud control.
Release of the report came as the House
Energy and Commerce Committee held a
hearing on the Department of Health and
Human Services budget.

The federal government is tightening


loopholes that let customers on the
Affordable Care Acts public insurance
exchanges buy coverage outside the laws
annual enrollment window.
That could ease a major concern health
insurers have about the exchanges.
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid
Services said Wednesday that it will start
requiring documentation or proof from people who say they need to buy a plan or
change coverage outside that window for
reasons like marriage, a permanent move or
the birth of a child.
Millions of people have used the ACAs
state-based exchanges to buy health insurance over the past few years. The vast
majority do so during an open enrollment
window that starts every fall and runs into
January.
The law established that window to prevent people from waiting until they become
sick to buy insurance. It also created special

enrollment periods in case a life-changing


event causes a customers insurance needs to
change outside of open enrollment.
UnitedHealth Group Inc. and other insurers have said they get a lot of expensive customers through these special enrollment
periods. They suspect that some customers
were waiting until they become sick to buy
insurance since no one was asking for proof
that they qualified for a special enrollment
period.
Such proof can come in the form of a birth
certificate or a marriage license, and insurers require it for coverage purchased off the
ACAs public exchanges. But they arent
allowed to ask for that proof from their
exchange customers.
The special enrollment documentation
will be required in the 38 states that use the
federal, HealthCare.gov website for their
exchange. The new requirement will unfold
over the next several months.
A CMS spokesman said the government
has to notify customers about the new
requirement, get documentation from them
and then verify it.

Perhaps the most unsettling


is that while HHS agrees there
are many vulnerabilities, the
agency has no urgency or plan
to fix these critical errors.
Rep. Fred Upton, R-Mich.

GAO raises many red flags, committee


chairman Rep. Fred Upton, R-Mich., said in
a joint statement with other Republicans.
Perhaps the most unsettling is that while
HHS agrees there are many vulnerabilities,
the agency has no urgency or plan to fix
these critical errors.
The health care law offers subsidized private insurance to people who dont have
access to job-based coverage, provided that
they are citizens or legal immigrants, and
fall within a certain income range. The GAO
report raised numerous questions about the
governments system for verifying eligibility for those benefits.
Advocates for low-income people say the
problem isnt fraud, but a convoluted documentation system that leaves out hundreds
of thousands of consumers legally entitled
to benefits because their personal information may not exactly match whats in government files. About 12.7 million have
signed up for coverage this year.

Russian leader pushes Syria


truce deal amid skepticism
By Zeina Karam
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Migrants wait to cross the border from Slovenia into Spielfeld in Austria.

BEIRUT Russian President Vladimir


Putin spoke Wednesday with key players in
the Syria conflict, including President Bashar
Assad, ahead of a U.S.-Russia-engineered
cease-fire, as the opposition voiced concerns
that the truce due to begin later this week will
only benefit the Syrian government.
Government troops backed by Russian warplanes waged fierce battles to regain control
of a strategic road southeast of Aleppo from
the Islamic State group. The extremist group
seized the town of Khanaser and surrounding
hills on Tuesday, cutting the main land route
to Aleppo.
REUTERS
The state-run news agency said 18 people
were killed in IS shelling of government-held
neighborhoods in the city over the past 24
hours.
The truce agreement, which is set to take
effect at midnight Friday local time, does not

cover the Islamic State


group, Syrias al-Qaida
branch known as the
Nusra Front, or any other
militia designated as a terrorist group by the U.N.
Security Council.
Its not clear exactly
where along Syrias comVladimir Putin plicated front lines the
fighting would stop and
for how long or where counterterrorism
operations could continue. Also unresolved
are how breaches in the truce would be dealt
with.
It remains shaky at best and major questions over enforcement are still unresolved.
In a further reflection of the complicated
terrain, Turkeys president said Wednesday
that a U.S.-backed Syrian Kurdish militia
group which Turkey regards as a terror
organization should also be kept outside of
the scope of the agreement.

Austria and Balkan nations,


want stop to migrant influx Israel: Iran has terror network in Europe, U.S.
By George Jahn
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

VIENNA Overwhelmed by a wave of


refugees and what they call indecision in the
European Union, Austria and its southern
neighbors along the Balkan migrant route
agreed Wednesday to tighter border controls
and warned that sooner or later they will
have to shut their doors entirely.
Playing off warnings that the restrictions
will lead to disastrous accumulations of
refugees on borders along the route,
Austrian Interior Minister Johanna MiklLeitner called for a chain reaction of reason.
We need measures that lead to a ... a
domino effect. We must reduce the flow of
migrants now, she said. Because the
refugee question can become a question of
survival for the European Union.
Interior and foreign ministers from EU
members Austria, Slovenia, Croatia and
Bulgaria, as well as Albania, Bosnia,
Kosovo, Macedonia, Montenegro and
Serbia met Wednesday in Vienna and issued a
declaration that struck the same tone. It
cited limited resources and reception capacities, potential consequences for internal
security and social cohesion as well as challenges with regard to integration.

Smart rats sniffing out


Cambodias vast mine fields
TRACH, Cambodia Its been a busy
morning for Cletus, Meynard, Victoria and
others of their furry band. Tiny noses and
long whiskers twitching, theyve scurried and
sniffed their way across 775 square meters
(8,300 square feet) of fields to eliminate a
scourge that has killed thousands of
Cambodians: land mines.

sensitive noses in the animal kingdom. Sent

the future was inevitable.
Greece, the first point of landing for most
of the migrants arriving by boat from
Turkey, was not invited to the meeting and
responded angrily by threatening to block
decisions at a forthcoming EU migration
summit if sharing of the refugee burden is
not made obligatory for member states.
Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras said that
from now on Greece will not assent to
agreements unless all its partners in the EU
are forced to participate proportionately in
the relocation and resettlement of refugees.
A senior government official, who spoke
on customary condition of anonymity, clarified that Tsipras was specifically referring
to the March 7 summit on immigration.
Tsipras lashed out at EU member states
that not only erect fences on their borders
but at the same time do not accept to take in
a single refugee.
Austria has recently capped the number of
asylum-seekers it will accept daily at its
borders to 80, and limited the number of
refugees it will let pass through the country.
That has led to more border restrictions
being introduced further south, hurting
countries along the route, including Greece,
which has seen 102,000 migrants reach its
shores so far this year.

NICOSIA, Cyprus Israels defense minister on Wednesday accused Iran of building


an international terror network that includes
sleeper cells that are stockpiling arms,
intelligence and operatives in order to
strike on command in places including
Europe and the U.S.
Moshe Yaalon said Iran aims to destabilize the Middle East and other parts of the
world and is training, funding and arming
emissaries to spread a revolution. He said
Tehran is the anchor of a dangerous axis
that includes Baghdad, Damascus, Beirut,
Sanaa and other cities in the region.
The Iranian regime through the Iranian
Revolutionary Guard corps is building a

complex terror infrastructure including


sleeping cells that are stockpiling arms,
intelligence and operatives and are ready to
act on order including in Europe and
America, Yaalon said after talks with his
Cypriot counterpart.
Israel considers Iran the biggest threat to
the region, citing its support for anti-Israel
militant groups like Hezbollah and Hamas,
and has been an outspoken critic of the
international nuclear deal with Iran.
The Israeli defense minister offered no
direct evidence of such sleeper cells existing in the U.S. or Europe, but referred indirectly to the case of a Hezbollah member
who was jailed in Cyprus last June following the seizure of nine tons of a chemical
compound that can be converted into an
explosive.

Stocks erase early loss, manage modest gains


By Ken Sweet

DOW JONES INDUSTRIALS

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK The stock market


reversed steep declines and ended
slightly higher on Wednesday,
thanks in part to a pickup in the
price of crude oil.
Indexes continue to be weighed
down by bank stocks, which
remain under pressure due to economic unease and worries about
the amount of loans on their
books to struggling oil and gas
companies.
The Dow Jones industrial average rose 53.21 points, or 0.3 percent, to 16,484.99. The Standard

Stocks had been dramatically
lower earlier in the day, with the
Dow down as much as 265 points.
However as oil prices recovered
through the day, so did energy
stocks and the broader market.
After being down nearly 4 percent
earlier, oil closed up 28 cents, or 1
percent, to $32.15 a barrel. The

Despite substantial gains in

the pressure on the commodity

Apples CEO Tim Cook: Complying


with FBI demand bad for America
By Brandon Bailey
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO Apple


CEO Tim Cook said Wednesday
that it would be bad for America
if his company complied with
the FBIs demand for help
unlocking an encrypted iPhone
used by one of the San
Bernardino shooters.
In his first interview since the
controversy erupted last week,
Cook told ABC News that it was a
difficult choice to resist the governments request for help with

the iPhone used


by
Syed
Farook, one of
two extremists
who killed 14
people in the
California city
in December.
S o m e
things are hard
Tim Cook
and
some
things are right, and some things
are both. This is one of those
things, Cook said in a video
clip released by ABC News. The
interview came as both sides in

the dispute are courting public


support while also mustering
legal arguments in the case.
Federal officials have said
theyre only asking for narrow
assistance in bypassing some
security features on the iPhone,
which they believe may contain
information related to the mass
murders.
Apple has argued that doing so
would make other iPhones more
susceptible to hacking by
authorities or criminals in the
future.
We know that doing this

would expose people to incredible vulnerabilities, Cook said.


This would be bad for America.
It would also set a precedent that
I believe many people in America
would be offended by.
Cook complained that Apple
learned from the news media
about a federal magistrates decision last week to order the company to create the software that
FBI investigators want. Court
documents indicate that authorities had previously consulted
with Apple about ways to obtain
the data on the phone.

Span set to take over in center field for the Giants

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. On one of the


many days over the second half of last season that Denard Span didnt play, he struck
up a conversation with Emmanuel Burriss.
With both players out of the Washington

about his days with the Giants. Burriss was
drafted by the Giants and played in their

organization through the

two games after July 6
with back and hip problems that led to surgery,
remembered the conversation when he agreed to
a three-year, $31 million
contract this offseason
to
play
for
San

He was telling me the type of organization and ball club they are and how they run
things over here, Span said after the

It definitely was a big factor in me making
the decision to come here. There was a lot of
similarities with how I came up with
Minnesota. It definitely caught my attention, and this offseason when they reached
out, I felt like it was a perfect fit for me.

More to college
recruiting than
just talent alone

DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

With a urry of offense, the Aragon boys


soccer team earned its rst Central Coast
Section playoff victory in 23 years.
The No. 6-seed Dons (13-5-2 overall) triumphed 3-1 over No. 11 Monterey
Wednesday in the CCS Division II opener at
Aragon, with all four goals in the game
being scored over a 10-minute stretch.
Senior forward Dakota Severson booted the
game-winner, breaking a 1-1 tie with a
breakaway goal in the 32nd minute.
That was crazy, Aragon head coach
Gregory Markoulakis said of the quick
exchange of goals. Not in a high school
game, I have never seen that.
The victory marks Aragons rst victory
in CCS play since 1993, a win over Palo
Alto settled on penalty kicks. It is the rst
CCS win in regulation for the Dons since
1982 in a quarternal victory over Monta
Vista.
Much of the rst half was marked by
close, aggressive play. But then the
shootout commenced with the games rst
three goals being scored within four minutes of each other.
Aragon got on the board in the 29th
minute on a free kick by forward Alex
Carrillo. The senior was staring down a wide
wall of Monterey defenders from 30 yards
out, but buzzed a high arcing liner over it
and on goal, giving the Dons a 1-0 lead.
But Monterey answered right back. On its
rst attack off the ensuing kickoff, midelder Mark Diego stormed the right wing to
advance the ball with a cross pass to junior
forward Fernando Cardenas, who took a
quick touch from close range to score off the
left post, tying it 1-1.
After we scored, we got a little too excited and they took advantage of that, Aragon
senior defender Antonio Sandoval said. But
I feel we were better than this team and we
deserved another goal.
The Dons got that goal in a hurry. Just a
minute later, Aragon took a long shot down-

with their three World Series championships in the past six seasons.
They expect excellence. Thats the way
we work. Just the culture around here, its a
quiet, confident group. Guys that let their
play speak for itself on the field, Span
said.
Span has also gotten to know Hall of
Famer Willie Mays, who has been around
camp lately.
Hes a joker, man. Hes not afraid to let

hile watching a basketball


game the other night, I got a
taste of the inner workings of
the college recruiting process.
There were a handful of Peninsula community college coaches in attendance at
this particular game, a couple with whom
I am friendly.
For those of you
high school athletes
who think they have
what it takes to play
at the college level,
let me give you some
insight.
College coaches
are not just looking
at what kind of game
you have. Sure, you
have to have the talent to play at the
next level and if you do, college coaches
have identified it already.
More than your skill set, however,
coaches are watching your every move on
the court: how you run the floor, what
kind of tenacity you have, how you carry
yourself on and off the court, your body
language. All the nuances you never
thought about are dissected by college
recruiters.
They also want to see how you respond
to adversity. How do you carry yourself
when things arent going your way? Do
you stop playing and pout? Do you hang
your head and not hustle to get back into
the play? How do you interact with your
teammates and your teams coaching
staff?
Most importantly, you not only have
got to want to play, you have to want to
attend college classes. You cant do one
without the other.
So if youre a high school athlete and
are lucky enough to be participating in
the playoffs, you might want to play
every game like its your last and show
that you can be a team player. After all,
you never know who is watching.

Baalke expects Kaepernick to be with 49ers in 2016


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

INDIANAPOLIS San Francisco general


manager Trent Baalke said Wednesday he
expects quarterback Colin Kaepernick to be
with the 49ers next season.
Asked at the NFL combine if Baalke foresees a return to the team by Kaepernick,
who lost his job during 2015 to Blaine
Gabbert, he replied absolutely.
Kaepernick went 2-6 in eight starts before
being benched. His future in San Francisco
seemed uncertain, but with the hiring of

Chip Kelly as coach,


Kaepernicks style would
seem a good fit. Kelly
prefers mobile quarterbacks who can throw on
the run, but Kaepernick
will need to improve his
accuracy and decision
making.
Kaepernick is recoverTrent Baalke

on his non-throwing left shoulder to fix a

torn labrum. His $11.9


million 2016 contract
becomes fully guaranteed
for injury April 1 if hes
on the roster.
I think the good thing
is weve got two guys
that have gone into
games and proven they
can play, Baalke said.
Colin
And Colins done some
Kaepernick

good
things
through his career, won some big games for

the San Francisco 49ers and (we) expect him


to come back. The main focus right now is
health, getting him healthy. Hes doing a
good job with his rehab. Talking to the
medical staff, that seems to be going very
well, and (we) just look forward to getting
him back and getting him working with this
coaching staff.

Panthers take direct


route in win over TKA
By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

In the day and age of one-touch, possessiontype of soccer, Burlingame girls soccer coach
Philip DeRosa is a throw back to the time of
direct, attacking soccer.
Kings Academy is one of those teams that
likes to keep possession of the ball and the
Knights did just that against the Panthers in the
first round of the Division II tournament.
In order for the possession game to work,
however, a team has to at some point go
on the attack. So while Kings Academy dominated possession, it was Burlingame that was
looking to push the ball forward.
In the end, old school beat new school as the
third-seeded Panthers beat the 14th-seeded
Knights 3-0 Wednesday night in Burlingame.
Im just so excited. I wanted it (the win) so
bad for these girls, said Burlingame midfielder
Kelsey Andrews, who had a goal and assist, and
teamed with Alysse LaMond in the midfield to
consistently set up the Panthers attack.
She is also one of nearly a dozen seniors on
the team.
We were so fired up for this game. With 11
seniors on the team, we want it bad, Andrews
continued.
Burlingame (14-4-3) will host No. 11 Crystal
Springs in a quarterfinal game at 7 p.m.
Saturday. The Gryphons knocked off No. 6 Live
Oak in a shootout to advance.
Unlike Kings Academy, which appeared to be
content to play with the ball at its feet and try to
take defenders off the dribble, the Panthers went
right on the attack any chance they got. It more
than paid off as they out-shot the Knights 20-3
for the game, with 11 of those shots on frame.
They were a possession team and we had to
deal with it, said Burlingame coach Philip
DeRosa. Our midfield was up to the task.

After weathering an initial Kings Academy


push to start the game, Burlingame took over
offensively. The Panthers had four shots on
goal in the first seven minutes and it didnt take
long for them to find the back of the net.
Burlingame earned a free kick about 40 yards
from goal. LaMond stepped up and thumped a
shot that went right to the Knights goalkeeper.
But the ball bounced off her chest and
Andrews came flying in, kneeing the rebound
into the net for a 1-0 Burlingame just seven
minutes into the game.
We have trouble following up (shots),
Andrews said. I knew no one would follow up
and I knew I had to be there.
Midway through the first half, Burlingame
doubled its lead when Andrews sent a perfectly
weighted diagonal pass through the Kings
Academy defensive line. Grace Colson ran onto
the ball and after juking one defender, carried the
ball into the box. After a scramble that saw the
Knights goalkeeper running around in the
penalty box, Colson calmly fired into an empty
net with the goalkeeper closing to put the
Panthers up 2-0 at halftime.
Burlingame put the game away in the 63rd
minute when LaMond lofted a pass over the top
of the Kings Academy defense. Mackenzie
Schoustra ran by the defense and had only the
goalkeeper to beat. She came off her line,
Schoustra went around her and calmly slotted a
shot just inside the right post to all but ice the
game.
DeRosa was especially impressed with the
way his midfield played. While Kings Academy
may have controlled possession, the
Burlingame midfield was opportunistic. When
that unit had a chance, it stood up the Knights
and quickly translated into a Burlingame attack.
They have really gelled to the point they
know what the others are doing, DeRosa said.
They just really know how to play together.

Lady Trojans down


American River in
postseason opener
By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

Claiming the last seed of California Community College


Northern California field of 18 playoff bracket, the Skyline
womens basketball team was forced to take its show on the
road for Wednesdays postseason opener.
And with a big win, the Lady Trojans will embrace their roadwarrior ways once more.
Despite losing one of its top scorers early on, No. 18-seed
Skyline (18-11 overall) rolled to a 79-58 upset of No. 15
American River (15-13) in Wednesday nights play-in game in
Sacramento. The Trojans will now travel to No. 2 Fresno City
for a Saturday showdown.
They were excited after the game, Skyline head coach
Chris Watters said. Well celebrate with a day off [Thursday]
and get after it Friday to go after it again against Fresno.
Things didnt start off well for the Trojans though, as the
teams second-leading scorer Dana Michaels left the game
early in the second quarter with a finger injury. The sophomore
forward averages 12.4 points per game this season. In here
absence, however, Skylines leading scorer Stephanie Allen
stepped up big time.
Not only did Allen score a game-high 23 points, the sophomore forward did battle with the formidable post presence of
American Rivers 6-1 center Cassandra Jaimes, who averaged
9.2 rebounds per game this season. But Allen did her one better actually, make that 1.8 better by grabbing 11
rebounds to notch her 11th double-double of the season.
It was just a good team effort, Allen said. They had a 6-1
girl, but everyone just had to play together and go at it to get
on the boards.
Skyline led it 29-24 at halftime, but came out running and
gunning in the second half. Freshman forward Juliet Courtney
added 16 points and freshman guard Alyssa Dela Cruz had 14.
We were able to turn it on in the second half, Watters said.
Now the Trojans, travelling to play a Fresno City team
(26-3) with most overall wins in the state, should feel like
theyre playing with house money.
I think well be fired up to play, Watters said. We really
have every reason to leave everything on the court and give it
our best effort.

Carlmont boys upset by Alvarez in CCS opener


By Terry Bernal
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF

The chances came time and again for the Carlmont boys
soccer team. But in the end, the Scots couldnt convert a single one.
For the second consecutive year, Carlmont (11-7-2 overall) was eliminated in the opening round of the Central
Coast Section Division I tournament, falling to Everett
Alvarez 1-0 at Usher Field.
We definitely wanted to pull together and do something
special for out school, but we just werent able to connect,
Carlmont senior defender Thomas Chin said.
No. 11-seed Alvarez (8-6-4) scored its lone goal early, on
an eighth-minute strike by freshman Luis Andradre. It was
all the offense the Eagles needed to upset No. 6 Carlmont,
despite the Scots being on the offensive through a vast
majority of the second half.
It was unfortunate, Carlmont head coach Will
Stambaugh said. We just couldnt set it up. It was just
one of those games that leaves you scratching your head.
The Scots suffered a significant loss midway through the
first half when senior forward Foster Kupbens departed with
an ankle injury. One of Carlmonts top scorers this season,
his absence left the offense without the finisher it so desperately needed.
All evening long Carlmont exhibited clever footwork,
consistent steals and precise passing. Yet there were
absolutely no finishes to be had, as the Scots managed just
four shots on goal in the second half, three of which came
via free kicks.
Thats been the problem all year, Stambaugh said. We
dont pull the trigger.
The Alvarez back row had everything to do with closing
lanes deep in its own territory. The defensive quartet consisting of seniors Bryan Rosiles, Albert Lazaro and Carlos
Garcia, and junior Carlos Vargas were on point, after nightmare finish in a Feb. 9 game against Pajara Valley during the
Eagles Monterey Bay League Gabilan Division in which
they let a late 1-0 lead slip away for a 2-1 loss.
So, holding the slightest of leads in the closing minutes,
Alvarez did everything to isolate any possible Carlmont
momentum - with Eagles players flopping to the turf and
pinning the ball in the corner while boxing out Carlmonts
players - much to the frustration of the Scots and their fans.
Thats why we were so antsy at the end, because we have
made mistakes that have cost us games late, Alvarez head

coach Edgar Luquin said.


The Eagles eighth-minute goal came
about due to a defensive breakdown by
the Scots, who allowed Andrade to get
behind the last tier for a 1-on-1 matchup
with goalie Peyton Young. With Andrade
flying into the penalty box, Young overcommitted, allowing Andrade to score
with an easy chip shot.
From there, the Scots attacks were as
Thomas Chin
many as they were fruitless.
Carlmonts best chance of the first half came in the 22nd
minute with a picturesque advance from midfield by Dro
Avetian and a pass to Paul Bastaki. The junior Bastaki
clipped the ball with a back-kick to a streaking Brett
Fitzpatrick, who stutter-stepped to let a defender pass,
before firing a shot off the right post. The shot was on the
mark, but Alvarezs goalkeeper Sebastian Ramirez came up
with a deflection made a diving one-handed save.
Young turned in an even more breathtaking sequence in
the 34th minute, as the Scots keeper kept his team close
with back-to-back saves on a series of Alvarez rockets.
Moises Reyes fired the first attempt from close range; it
deflected off Youngs block and right to the foot of Andrade.
Andrare sized up the 1-on-1 matchup and delivered an on-target ball inside the left post, but Young lurched outside to
knock it away.
Young, a junior, has been thrust into fulltime duty in the
cage with senior goalkeeper Cameron Dennler lost for the
year after breaking his nose in the regular-season finale last
Friday against Menlo-Atherton. Young has seen plenty of
reps this season platooning with Dennler though, and was
on his game after the initial misstep Wednesday.
But Carlmont simply couldnt finish anything on the
other side.
We werent able to make creative runs up top, Chin said.
We just didnt make room for our players.
Two free kicks were the closest the Scots who were shut
out three times during the regular season came to getting
on the board.
The first was in the 62nd minute by junior Jack McLean,
who boomed one from 35 yards out on the wing to exact the
attempt just under he crossbar. Ramirez, however, timed his
leap perfectly and punched it over for a dramatic save.
Then in the 79th minute after Carlmont senior Brent

Pro boxers could compete in Olympics


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MANCHESTER, England The worlds


best professional boxers could be eligible to
compete in this years Olympics under proposals put forward by the sports world governing body.
The International Boxing Association
(AIBA) discussed a fast-track proposal to
open Olympic tournaments to all boxers during its meetings in Manchester this week.
After the meeting Wednesday, AIBA
President Ching-Kuo Wu said the proposal
could be ratified within months, potentially
in time for the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro in
August.
We want the best boxers to come to the
Olympic Games, Wu told Britains Press
Association, adding that it was absolutely
possible the changes could be made in time
for the Rio Games.
But with the qualifying process already

eld. Carrillo sent a pass from mideld into
Severson. The junior got behind the
Monterey back row and had daylight, but
had to slow down just a tad to control it. As
he did, two Monterey defenders caught him,
but Severson battled through and untangled
himself from the pack for a scoring strike
from 15 yards out, giving the Dons a 2-1
advantage.
Our boys are so in love with possessions
that its for them to understand the concept
and stretch the defense, Markoulakis said.
But they started introducing the long ball
to change up the attack.
Monterey nearly tied it again just one

well under way for the Rio field, a large influx


of star pro boxers seems unlikely this year.
Mike Martino, the executive director of
USA Boxing, told The Associated Press that
he doesnt anticipate any star American
fighters joining the Rio team.
Do I think its going to happen this year?
No, Martino said. Practically speaking,
were looking at 2020. But its something
thats been on our radar screen, something
weve talked about for the last four years,
knowing that AIBA pro boxers were going to
be in the Olympics. Weve talked to the
USOC about how it impacts the sport, and
its huge. The Dream Team changed basketball in the Olympics forever. This will obviously change boxing forever.
Martino said that while USA Boxing alumni such as Andre Ward and Floyd Mayweather
Jr. have provided financial and personal support to the program, no star professional
boxers have expressed serious interest in

joining the U.S. mens team, which hasnt


won a gold medal in the last two Olympics.
Martino added that he has heard from second-tier pros that would consider it because
maybe they didnt achieve their goals, but
realistically speaking, I think its going to
be difficult for star boxers to compete in the
Olympics.
Its also too late to claim many qualification spots: Martino noted that while Carlos
Balderas is the only American already qualified for Rio due to his participation in AIBAs
World Series of Boxing, Russia already has
eight boxers qualified in the 10 Olympic
weight divisions, while Cuban fighters have
already reserved seven spots.
AIBA said its idea was being proposed to
national federations, and must then be ratified by AIBAs executive commission. Each
national federation would then have to
address its own qualification rules to make
the changes possible, a process that could be

difficult to complete in time for Rio.


It is an IOC policy to have the best athletes in the Games, and of the international
federations, AIBA is probably the only one
without professional athletes in the
Olympics, Wu said.
The proposed changes are only the latest
step in AIBAs multiyear quest to control
every aspect of boxing, from the lowest amateur fights to the heights of the pro sport.
Since Wu became AIBA president in 2006,
AIBA has dropped the word amateur from
its name and banned fighters from wearing
headguards in AIBA-sanctioned mens
events, still a subject of heavy medical
debate.
Wus efforts have had mixed success. After
years of apparently heavy spending, AIBAs
World Series of Boxing and APB professional boxing program have gained little traction
outside nations with no established structure
of professional boxing.

minute later, on a close attempt by Jimmy


Diego. The junior had Aragon keeper
Nathan Machak drawn out just a step, and
attempted a high left-footed windmill kick,
but Machak got extended with a dive to just
get his left hand on it to deect the sharp
attempt and preserve the lead.
The miss was a tough blow for Monterey.
If we tie it, its a different game,
Monterey head coach Josimar Herrera said.
It was right before the half, so it would
have helped us going into the second half.
Machaks reactionary save was like
clockwork, though, for a goalkeeper that
has been one of the best in the PAL this season, according to Markoulakis.
Nathans positioning, hes denitely
one of the top two in the league, if not the
top goalkeeper, Markoulakis said. His
positioning is stellar.
Just before the half, Aragon added an

insurance goal on another long advance.


Sandoval sent it in from just past mideld to
a streaking Christian Torres. This time,
Monterey senior defender Bernardo
Alvarado was on his mark step for step, but
the precise pass went right to the foot of
Torres, who dribbled forward three steps and
avoided a tackle attempt by Alvarado to
exact a crisp score into the vacated left net,
giving Aragon a 3-1 lead at the half.
Throughout the second half, the Dons
kept the pressure up. Aragons forwards
actually provided some of the most tenacious defense, constantly harassing
Montereys back row any time the
Toreadores defenders attempted to control
the ball.
We morphed into a 4-3-3 so we could
attack and take advantage of their back
line, Sandoval said. I feel like that was a
perfect system for this game.

Sandoval is one of 10 Aragon players who


play year round with the San Mateo Lions
for the California Youth
Soccer
Association. A former club player with the
Juventus Aztecs, Sandoval left the club team
two years ago to join the Lions. The team
has since celebrated much success and is
qualied to play in the Surf Cup tournament
later this summer. And the chemistry has
certainly carried over to the high school
pitch.
Our chemistry, our bonding, our friendship we get into arguments here and
there, but thats brother love, Sandoval
said.
With the win, Aragon advances to
Saturdays quarternals to take on the winner of No. 3 Sacred Heart Cathedral and No.
14 Soledad. The higher seed of Saturdays
match will host.

Sharks fall in shootout to Avalanche


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DENVER Nathan MacKinnon


and Matt Duchene scored in the
shootout, Shawn Matthias had a
goal in his Colorado debut and the
Avalanche beat the San Jose Sharks
4-3 on Wednesday night.
Calvin Pickard came up big in the
shootout by stopping two shots.
He made 30 saves filling in for
starter Semyon Varlamov, who was
out with the flu.
Gabriel Landeskog and Jarome
Iginla had goals in regulation for
Colorado. It was Iginlas 607th
career NHL goal.
Matthias scored on his first shot

in an Avalanche jersey. The same


went for Nick Spaling in a Sharks
sweater. Both were acquired in separate deals with Toronto earlier in the
week.
Brent Burns and Joel Ward also
scored for the Sharks, with Wards
goal tying it with 1:31 remaining.
Martin Jones made 38 saves, and
the Sharks finished their trip with a
3-1-1 mark.
Landeskog gave the Avs a 3-2 lead
with 8:15 remaining when he poked
the puck through Jones pads. San
Jose pulled Jones for an extra skater
with just over 2 minutes remaining
and Ward scored the equalizer when
he tipped in a shot.

Next up for Colorado is an outdoor game against Detroit on


Saturday at Coors Field.
Burns gave San Jose a 2-1 advantage early in the third period when
his shot from behind the net
clanged off the skate of defenseman
Erik Johnson and bounced past
Pickard.
The lead was short-lived as Iginla
scored on a power play less than 4
minutes later. Iginla moved within a
goal of tying Dino Ciccarelli for
17th place on the career list.
Spaling scored his inaugural goal
with the Sharks when he sent a shot
over the glove of Pickard just 2:10
into the game.

Curry, Thompson come through late for Warriors


By Tim Reynolds
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MIAMI The leagues leading shot


blocker was coming at him, and even that
wasnt enough to bother Stephen Curry.
It was the biggest moment of the night,
and the MVP delivered.
Curry connected on the go-ahead 3-pointer over the outstretched arm of Miami center
Hassan Whiteside with 38 seconds left, and
the Golden State Warriors beat the Miami
Heat 118-112 on Wednesday night in a game
that featured 13 lead changes in the fourth
quarter alone.
It was a huge test, Curry said. On the
road, any time you play against a playoff
basketball team, its going to be a tough
task.
Curry finished with 42 points, and Klay
Thompson scored 15 consecutive points for

GIANTS
Continued from page 11
you know how hes feeling, and Im just
amazed at how sharp he is, Span said. Its
been a joy just to be able to sit down at the
table with him and shoot the breeze.
The addition of Span didnt come without
some questions. Span takes over for Angel
Pagan in center field, with Pagans move to
left field an issue large enough that the two
had to discuss it when they arrived for
spring training.
I think him and I are on the same page,
Span said of Pagan. We have a common
goal, and thats to help this team win a
championship.
Also, Span played in only 61 games last
season, the back problems a precursor to
hip pain. He still hit .301 in 246 at-bats for

Warriors 118, Heat 112


Golden State in the
fourth on his way to a
33-point night.
Curry made a pair of
free throws with 18. 5
seconds left to get to the
40-point mark for the
ninth time this season,
and soon the Warriors
Klay Thompson walked off a winner for
the 51st time in 56
games this season.
But Miami more than made them earn it.
We had our opportunities, Heat coach
Erik Spoelstra said. Our guys played their
butts off. ... This is for competitors only.
This is competition at its finest.
Dwyane Wade had a season-high 32
points and seven assists for the Heat, who
the Nationals.
Hes full go, but with that said, I think
Ill slow-play him a little bit, manager
Bruce Bochy said. We have plenty of time.
Well keep an eye on him. Really, the surgery that he had is an eight-month (recovery) deal to be 100 percent, and thatll be
about when the season starts. I think hes a
little ahead of the schedule.
Span said hes feeling good but has some
work to do to strengthen his legs and get the
explosiveness he wants. He looks forward
to playing in the spacious outfield of AT&T
Park.
Offensively, a lot of gaps so its a lot of
base hits. So you just have to keep the ball
down, line drive swing, which is what I do,
Span said. Ill be able to utilize my speed
by either getting a double or triple.
Defensively, it allows me to utilize my
speed in those gaps, and thank God we have
an athletic outfield. Im going to be leaning
on those guys to help me out.

led by 12 early and went up 108-107 when


Wade made a pair of free throws with 56.5
seconds left.
On the next possession, Whiteside
blocked a 3-point try from Draymond Green
his Twitter nemesis, after they exchanged
words on the social media platform last year
but the ball found its way to Curry, who
connected.
A great player made some great plays at
the end, Wade said. We did enough to win
the ballgame, we just didnt come out with
it. If we can play the way we did tonight the
rest of the season we will win most of those
games.
Whiteside had 21 points and 13 rebounds
for Miami, which got 16 points from Luol
Deng and 15 from rookie Josh Richardson.
Harrison Barnes scored 11 and Green finished with 10 points and 11 rebounds for the
Warriors.
For a team that has had its resilience test-

ed mightily lately first the loss of AllStar forward Chris Bosh to a blood clot in
his leg, presumably for the rest of the season, and now backup point guard Beno
Udrih to season-ending foot surgery the
Heat came out flying. They held Golden
State to 35 percent shooting in the first
quarter, leading by as many as 12 in the
early going.
Curry kept the Warriors in it: He was 6 for
11 in the opening quarter, including a 40footer to end the period. His teammates were
just 2 for 12 in the opening 12 minutes.
Miamis lead was 55-51 at the half, and
the Heat survived an early spurt by the
Warriors out of intermission to take an 8380 edge into the fourth. With Wade and
Curry on their respective benches getting
breathers for the stretch run, the lead
changed hands five times in a 2-minute span
early in the fourth, neither team able to grab
control.

ago, Baalke said. Frank Gore and him were


working out down in Miami together and I
think its coming. Hes not game-ready yet
by any stretch, but all indications are that
its healing very nicely and look forward to
having him full speed as soon as possible.
I think coach would tell you hes the ideal
fit for what coach wants to do. Very similar
to what he did at Ohio State, a big back that
runs with power, runs with a little anger.
How can you not like that?

years, ever since Kelly was coaching at
Oregon. Asked about their developing relationship as co-workers, Baalke compared it
to a marriage.
Yeah, it takes a while, he said. Its like
any relationship. It doesnt happen
overnight. But all indications are, like I
said, Ive known coach since he was at
Oregon and see him no different than the
conversations that I used to have with him
when we went in and were recruiting his
players at Oregon.
We see eye to eye on a lot of things.
Theres always going to be things that you
come across in these types of relationships
where youve got to work through. But, as
of right now, as were trying to put this
thing together with free agency and the
draft, we feel pretty good about how were
communicating and what exactly were
looking for.
One thing the Niners will be looking for
coming off a 5-11 record is a return to health
for running back Carlos Hyde. He ended the
season on injured reserve with a stress fracture in his left foot.
A second-round draft pick in 2014 out of
Ohio State, Hyde finished with 115 carries
for 470 yards and three touchdowns in seven
games as the replacement for long-time running back Frank Gore.
I actually talked to him about three days

49ers sign defensive lineman


Dial to three-year extension
SANTA CLARA The San Francisco
49ers have signed defensive tackle Quinton
Dial to a three-year contract extension
through 2019.
The team announced the move Wednesday.
The 25-year-old Dial was a fifth-round pick
by the 49ers out of
Alabama in 2013 and had
59 tackles and 2.5 sacks
last season while starting
15 games.
General manager Trent
Baalke says during his
first three seasons Dial
has shown consistent
development and has
Quinton Dial become a key contributor
in our defense.
Dial has 90 total tackles, 4.5 sacks and
two passes defensed in 32 games with 21
starts. His two blocked field goals in 2015
made him the first 49ers player to accomplish the feat in the same season since
defensive end Lawrence Pillers in 1983.

Edible landscaping can yield color, wildlife habitat, food


By Dean Fosdick
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Why bother mowing thirsty lawns when


you can grow edibles? Replace those sorrylooking patches of grass around trees, pathways and slopes with mint, thyme, strawberries, and a host of attractive and practical
fruits, vegetables and herbs.
Turf is sort of the lowest common
denominator in ground covers, said Weston
Miller, a horticulturist with the Oregon
State University Extension Service in
Portland. It takes more work, specialized
timing and tools. The advantage with edibles is that they provide more (wildlife)
habitat and they also look good.
Edible landscaping includes more options
than simply adding ground cover.
Ornamental shrubs and trees can be attractive, practical and long-lasting, too.
If youre looking to eliminate trouble
spots, the thing to keep in mind is that the
bulk of herbs and a lot of the fruits do best in
full sun, Miller said. Some will be just as
colorful in partial shade, although they
wont bear as much.
Good drainage also is important, he said.
Low-lying areas are not good places for
growing edibles.
Recommended food plants for lawns,
slopes and problem areas include:

GROUND COVER:
Herbs. You get more for your money
with perennial herbs over turf, said Rhonda
Ferree, a horticulturist with University of
Illinois Extension. Herbs dont have a lot
of pest problems, and make for a good alternative.
Edible flowers like viola, calendula,
chives, nasturtiums and ferns. Ill add flowers to a dull-looking salad to add color,
Ferree said. Or sometimes I just eat flowers

right out of the garden.


Greens. Highly recommended. Fast and
easy to grow, Miller said. They also have
a long harvest period. Rainbow chard is a
great ornamental.
Fruit. One good way to start is with
strawberries, Miller said. Wild strawberries or Alpine strawberries do better in partial sun than garden varieties. Wildlife like
them a lot.

SHRUBS:
Berries, including currants, raspberries
and blueberries. Use a raspberry fruiting
shrub as a hedge, Ferree said. Hops,
grapes, edible passion flowers, cucumbers
or pole beans work well as vines.
Roses. Rose bushes are beautiful and
hold soil well on a slope, Ferree said.
Wild roses develop hips with a lot of
Vitamin C that often are used in teas and for
making preserves.

TREES:
Fruit over ornamentals. A hickory tree

shrubs and trees can be attractive, practical and long-lasting, too.
providing delicious nuts, Ferree said.
Instead of a spring-blooming tree like a
redbud, consider an apple or cherry that not
only have beautiful spring blooms but later
provide delicious fruit.
Dwarf varieties grown in containers or
raised beds work well on small patios or balconies. The same is true for smaller varieties
of tomatoes, raspberries, blueberries and
many herbs, Ferree said. Even a citrus tree
houseplant can be moved outside during
summer.Food plants are better choices for
the environment than a wide expanse of
grass, she said: Youre not going to have
the output of emissions and mowing costs.
Growing edibles, however, might not be
best if youre trying to find a labor-saving
replacement for turf, Miller said.

Her husband Robert Garay Sr., her three
sons Eugene, James and Philip Garay, and
her grandson Marc Huston preceded her in
death.
Born in Coronado, California, she moved
to San Francisco and married the love of her
life Bobby at 16, where they lived until

California. There they met lifelong friends
with whom they had many adventures.
Bea is survived by her daughter Natalie
Toney and son Robert Garay Jr., six grandchildren and six great-grandchildren.

DATA

information, and it would not be disseminated widely or used outside the scope of
the lawsuit.
The release of the information will be
overseen by experts to ensure it is safeguarded from potential security threats,
according to the California Concerned
Parents, the group supporting the families
filing the lawsuit against the state agency.
In light of the court ordered information
release, three members of the state
Assembly are drafting a bill aiming to prohibit school districts from gathering Social
Security information and other private data,
unless required by federal law, according to
the Associated Press.
As a mom, Ive seen my kids schools
over the year request Social Security numbers, medical information and other private
information they dont need or have a right
to, Assemblywoman Lorena Gonzalez, D-

San Diego, said in a prepared statement.


The case has sent shockwaves throughout
the state education community, as parents
have scrambled to file the objection to disclosure forms before the deadline.
Barton said due to the difficulties some
have had accessing the objection of disclosure form, as Web traffic may have crashed
the Department of Educations website, she
would advocate for the April 1 deadline to
be pushed back further, to grant more time
to concerned parties to take action.
The state Parent Teacher Association has
taken a more hard-lined stance in its opposition on the issue.
As the bridge between families, schools
and communities, we will be working at the
state and local levels to inform families of
this issue and the April 1 deadline to voice
their objection to this onerous information
release, which places an undue burden of

time, expense and worry on parents whose


children these privacy laws were created to
protect, said Justine Fischer, president of
the state PTA, in a prepared statement.
State Superintendent Tom Torlakson
expressed a similar sentiment, in a prepared
statement.
We have fought vigorously to protect
students privacy rights and will continue
that fight, he said.
Submitting the objection to the disclosure will not ensure the sensitive data will
remain private, but U. S. District Judge
Kimberly Mueller, who ordered the data
release, will receive the formal opposition. The objections will not be made public.
Those interested in accessing the objection to disclosure form should visit
cde.ca.gov/morganhillcase for more information.

Every cat we take was on a euthanasia


list, she said.
Nine Lives gets no government subsidies
and relies solely on private sector donations.
The plan for now is to split the foundation
into two parts with a spay/neuter/vaccination clinic and retail store to be set up by
June 30 in a new Redwood City location.
The shelter will then be housed in another
location at a later date.
We are looking for a more suitable, permanent location worthy of the cats we care
for, Rudiger said.

Some of the cats in the shelter have


resided there for years.
Nine Lives relies on a core group of
between 75 and 100 volunteers to keep the
shelter running and care for the cats.
Its the shelter that took in Smurf the purpled-hair kitten that was likely being used
as a chew toy. It has since been nursed back
to health.
With the news that Nine Lives lost its
least, support has grown to help find it a
new home.
Im overwhelmed by the support,
Rudiger said.
The shelter adopts out about 25 cats a

week and more than 8,000 since it first


opened.
It is important for everyone to know that
we will find a safe place for every animal in
our shelter and that the closure of the building does not mean the end of the Nine Lives
Foundation, Rudiger wrote in an email to
volunteers.
Nine Lives performs more than 400 lowcost surgeries every month so the focus will
be on getting the clinic set up immediately,
she said.

form on its website, and many other local
school districts have followed suit.
The lawsuit filed by parents in Morgan
Hill in 2011 against the state education
agency revolves around allegations that
more could be done to improve special education services.
As part of the court action, the filing
group requested access to state student
records spanning back as far as 2008 and a
U.S. District Court judge granted permission late last month.
Under the courts direction, only representatives of the plaintiffs in the court case
would be allowed to view the sensitive

next facility that houses the shelter will
become its permanent home.
For now, the priority is to adopt out the
274 cats currently in the shelters care or
find them foster homes by May 31, a month
before the nonprofits lease expires.
None of the cats in this shelter would be
considered adoptable at the Peninsula
Humane Society, Rudiger said.

Superheroes command the stage at Toy Fair


By Kim Cook
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK Superheroes were a force


to be reckoned with at this months North
American International Toy Fair, the annual trade showcase for all thats new in playthings.
Many were tied to movie or comic-book
franchises, while others took the idea of
the superhero in new directions.
Toy companies have been busy keeping
up with movies like Marvels Avengers
series, including the upcoming Captain
America: Civil War; as well as Warner
Bros. Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of
Justice movie, due out in March; the
recent Star Wars: The Force Awakens; and
other offerings of the genre.
Toy-fair booths at the Javits Convention
Center here this month featured dozens of
collectible figures for adults and lots of
toys for kids.
Hasbro debuted a Captain America:
Civil War collection of figures and playsets, as well as role-play items like a
shield with a hidden button that launched
Nerf darts. High-tech masks had multi-colored light scopes and electronic armor
sounds. (www.hasbro.com)
There were superhero bobble heads, bedding, decor, even housewares. How about a
Batman cookie jar? A Star Wars BB-8 alarm
clock?
Pocket-size Mr. Potato Head figures
aimed at the preschool market featured
interchangeable parts: You could put Black
Widows head on Hulks body, for instance.
(www.hasbro.com)
Lego had a wide range of Super Heroes
building kits tied to films and comic
books. A collection called Mighty Micros,
targeting ages 5-12, includes a superhero,
villain and vehicles in each set; Spiderman
vs. Green Goblin, for instance, or Captain
America vs. Red Skull. (www.lego.com)
Vandors booth offered Star Wars soup
mugs, Captain America water bottles, insulated lunch bags illustrated with comic
book covers, and a metal lunch box shaped

like a Ninja Turtle shell. (www.vandorproducts.com)
Entertainment Earth showed capes for
Spiderman, Supergirl, Batman and Batgirl
to decorate chair backs, perhaps giving
homework hour the gravity of an important mission. There were also nesting-doll
sets featuring Batman or Star Wars characters. (www.entertainmentearth.com)
One addition to the Marvel toy line was
Pepper, Iron Mans girlfriend and now,
apparently, a super girl in her own right.
Wonder Woman, Supergirl and Black
Widow also have action figures and accessories.

Even Thomas the Tank Engine has been


adopted by the comic universe. Fisher-Price has combined the little trains with
DC Comics Super Friends.
Superheroes are very current and relevant, says
Fisher-Price
spokesman
Mike Pisor. We thought
this would be a great way to
leverage the noise around
the Batman vs. Superman
epic drama unfolding this
year. We know that kids
who love trains also love

action figures and vehicles. (www.fisherprice.com)


The Toy Fair revealed some new twists on
the superhero genre, too.
Theatric Toys has a costume kit in their
Props in a Bag line; included in a handyfor-sleepovers drawstring bag is a felt

Officials hope the plan, which was

approved by the council earlier this
www.smdailyjournal.com month under the recommendation of

The pay hike, which was built into


the city managers existing contract,
was deserved considering the variety of
management responsibilities Raines
balances, said Councilman Wayne Lee.
Shes doing phenomenal work with
the resources we have, said Lee. Shes
directing staff, hiring staff and training
staff. She should be adequately compensated for the work she is doing.
Raines, who was hired as Millbrae
city manager in 2008 after holding the
same position in Half Moon Bay,
received a pay bump in 2014 boosting
her salary from $192,996 to $235,800.
The most recent pay hike agreement
is retroactive to July 1, 2015, and
marks the third amendment to her contract. Other top management officials
in Millbrae recently received a 4 percent pay hike as well.
Lee said councilmembers felt it was
important to offer Raines a salary
which was competitive with similar
positions in other neighboring cities.
We are trying to be fair and trying to
send a signal to upper management that
we are willing to pay appropriately and
we want good talent, he said.
Mayor Anne Oliva said she fully supported Raines receiving a pay hike as
well.
We have a beautiful city manager and
she does a wonderful job, said Oliva.
The deal with Raines is roughly on
par with an agreement struck between
the South San Francisco City Council

and City Manager Mike Futrell last


year, which bumped the top officials
pay to a base salary of nearly
$242,000.
Burlingame City Manager Lisa
Goldman earned roughly $218,000 and
San Bruno City Manager Connie
Jackson made about $231,000 in 2014,
according to the most recent online data
available from the office of state
Controller Betty Yee.
Raines was not available for comment on this article, according to
Millbrae City Clerk Angela Louis.
Lee cited Raines requirement to manage a variety of responsibilities which
typically fall under the umbrella of
other department heads.
Officials are looking to hire managers for the Human Resources and
Public Works departments, said Lee,
and Raines is responsible for assuming
those duties while those positions sit
vacant.
That is extra work on her part, said
Lee.
He cited the new digital sign installed
along Highway 101, Millbraes
improved credit ratings and a variety of
ongoing traffic calming initiatives as
examples of accomplishments under
Raines in the past year.
The greatest achievement, according
to Lee, was development of the
Millbrae Station Area Specific Plan,
which sets the policies for future development of the 116-acre site near the

YEE

30 days. Yee and his attorney declined


comment outside the courtroom.
Yee is a longtime politician who
also served in the state Assembly and
on the San Francisco Board of
Supervisors.
He pleaded guilty in July to one
count of conspiracy to engage in racketeering. The charge was filed as part
of an organized crime investigation in
San Franciscos Chinatown that led to
charges against more than 2 dozen
people.
The probe also snared Raymond
Shrimp Boy Chow, a flamboyant
leader of a Chinese fraternal organization the Ghee Kung Tong.
Federal agents say one of Chows
associates was Keith Jackson, a former
San Francisco school board president
and well-known political consultant
who raised money for Yees unsuccessful mayoral run in 2011 and his bid for
secretary of state.
Prosecutor Susan Badger said during
the sentencing hearing that Yee was
looking for money to win the race for
secretary of state as he was being
forced from the state Senate by term
limits.
Senator Yee abused that trust and

The crimes that you committed
have resulted in essentially an attack
on democratic institutions.
Still, Breyers sentence fell on the
low end of guidelines that called for a
prison term of between four years and 9
months and six years.
Prosecutors had recommended an
eight-year sentence.
Yees attorneys had called for no
more than five years and three months
behind bars, saying Yee had a history
of public service and his wife was ill.
Yee, 67, told the judge before sentencing that he had accepted responsibility for his crimes and wanted to take
care of his disabled wife.
Nothing will ever take away those
crimes and those actions, he said.
Nothing that I will ever do will take
away the pain that I have caused to my
family friends, constituents, supporters.
Yee has been free pending sentencing. Breyer ordered him to surrender in

Raines, will generate substantial revenue for the city over the next couple
decades, and shape the gateway of the
city near the intersection of El Camino
Real and Millbrae Avenue.
Two projects expected to bring hundreds of new jobs and homes to the city
inside the sites boundaries have
already been designed and are pending
formal submission to city officials.
Lee said the variety of initiatives in
the past year were successfully brought
to fruition through the hard work of
Raines.
Shes a very sound manager, said
Lee. Shes very fair and she makes
tough
decisions.
Going forward, Lee said he is hopeful
the city is able to fill some of the
vacancies among its department heads,
which would likely take some of the
burden off of Raines.
In the effort to hire new staff, Lee said
it is imperative to keep highly qualified
officials in place, and pay them a competitive salary in hopes that will appeal
to other interested parties.
People who want to come to cities
want to know they have good management, he said. And I think Marcia is
part of that good management.
Schneider abstained from the vote as
she was recently elected to council, and
Papan withheld her vote because she
was absent from contract negotiations
with Raines due to illness.
faith in the worst possible way. It wasnt actually for personal financial
wealth, she said. It was to retain
power as a public official.
Jackson led authorities to Yee and
pleaded guilty to a racketeering
charge. He received a nine-year prison
sentence Wednesday.
Yee
acknowledged
accepting
$11,000 in exchange for setting up a
meeting with another state senator,
$10,000 for recommending someone
for a grant, and $6,800 for providing a
certificate on California State Senate
letterhead honoring the Ghee Kung
Tong.
He also acknowledged that he discussed helping an undercover FBI
agent buy automatic weapons from the
Philippines that were intended to be
brought to the U.S. for distribution.
Prosecutors say Chow and some
other members of the fraternal group
engaged in drug trafficking, money
laundering and the sale of stolen cigarettes and top-shelf liquors.
The case against Chow was largely
the work of an undercover FBI agent
who posed for years as a foul-mouthed
East Coast businessman with mafia
ties.
