Another
city hit by
garbage
rate hike
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
San Carlos residents have until
April to stave off a 13.2 percent
garbage rate hike, adding the city to
a growing roster of Peninsula cities
and districts adjusting for the new
service provider and paying off lin-
gering debts to the previous one.
The San Carlos City Council
tonight will schedule a hearing April
11, 45 days after the legally required
notice of the proposal, at which it
could increase rates either 13.2 per-
cent or 11 percent for both residen-
tial and commercial customers.
The difference is 2.2 percent
attributed to an accounting balance
owed former service provider Allied
Waste, whose contract ended last
year.
A portion of that can be deferred
until after this rate year. That means
the increase would be 11 percent
now but an extra 2.2 percent in the
2012 adjustment, said Assistant City
Manager Brian Moura, who also
chairs the county’s garbage service
joint powers authority board.
Several cities are not taking the
deferral route but Moura said San
Carlos officials wanted to keep this
year’s rate as low as possible.
Other costs are chalked up to new

County may
expand ban
on Styrofoam
By Michelle Durand
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
A ban on the use of disposable
food service ware by San Mateo
County itself might be expanded to
prohibit all food vendors in the unin-
corporated area from using
Styrofoam and
similar prod-
ucts.
The move for
a wider-ranging
ban comes more
than two years
after the county
first approved an
ordinance regu-
lating the use of Adrienne Tissier
disposable food
service in county-run outlets, like
the cafe in the basement of the
County Government Center, the San
Mateo Event Center and the San
Mateo Medical Center.
Even then, proponents like
Supervisor Adrienne Tissier, who
authored the ordinance, considered
it the first step toward a larger ban.
“We felt it was important to do it
by example. We wanted to see how
onerous it might be before asking
others to do it,” Tissier said.
Instead of polystyrene, commonly
known as Styrofoam, vendors will
be asked to use recyclable,
biodegradable or compostable mate-
rials like paper, cardboard, corn
starch, potato starch or sugarcane.
While such products were once
harder for vendors to find and more
expensive, they’ve been more wide-
ly available and cheaper at supply

San Mateo native lives life on ‘Avenue Q’
By Heather Murtagh
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Have you recently been wondering what to
do with an English degree? If you’re the
biggest loser on your
block? Or what people
really do while online?
Puppets hold the
answers to these questions
and more during a two-
week run of “Avenue Q”
which starts tomorrow at
the Orpheum Theatre in
San Francisco. The 2003
Zach Trimmer Tony Award winning
show hits the Bay Area
with a San Mateo-native, Zach Trimmer, as
part of the team.
Twenty-two-year-old Trimmer, a San
Mateo High alumnus, is dance captain for the
show. Dancing and singing on stage was not
part of Trimmer’s dreams as a youngster,
however.
As a little boy, Trimmer attended South
Hillsborough Elementary and Crocker Middle
LOCAL

schools. It was at Crocker that he began to
play wind instruments — clarinet, flute, sax-
ophone.
During his sophomore year at San Mateo, a
friend who was in drama noted the two never
hung out any more. She encouraged him to
audition for the winter production of “The
Will Rogers Follies.” Trimmer went for it and
found his drug.
“It’s my favorite thing to do now,” Trimmer
recalled.
He enrolled in dance classes as well and
began training for a theatrical life. Trimmer
enrolled at Foothill College, where he studied
for two quarters before getting antsy and leav-
ing for New York.
Auditioning was difficult at first.
“Everyone moves there to be an actor. It’s
frustrating, waking up, getting dressed, sitting
in a waiting room; it’s a full-time job and
you’re not getting paid to do it. It was rough
but still fun,” he said.
Trimmer actually landed one of his first
auditions, but there was a couple of weeks lag
time between reading for the part and learning
he’d been cast.
A performance with “Hairspray” taught
Trimmer the ropes of touring life.
“Avenue Q” brings with it new challenges.
Trimmer saw the show in 2009 on a trip to
New York with his dad.
“I knew that I loved it,” he said.
But puppeteering wasn’t in Trimmer’s per-
formance repertoire. Also, this show doesn’t
have as much dancing. Trimmer is the danc-
ing captain, which means he’ll sit out at times
watching others’ performances to ensure
moves are clean.
Performing in San Francisco has allowed
THE DAILY JOURNAL
Trimmer to be home to visit his family, and 5-
month-old niece while visiting hometown
restaurants he loves. He’s really looking for-
ward to opening day.
For those thinking about taking in the show,
Trimmer has some advice.
“It’s definitely aimed more for adults, not
for racy situations or language, although there
are those things,” he said adding it deals with
politics, racism and interesting love situa-
tions.
“It’s for adults because it’s hilarious,” he
said. “Everyone always loves it. It’s smart and
quite telling.”
“Avenue Q” runs from Feb. 15 through Feb.

Open primary system to get first test

By Don Thompson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SACRAMENTO — Voters upset
with partisan gridlock in the nation’s
most populous state decided last
year to try a new way of electing
lawmakers — an open primary sys-
tem in which only the top two vote-
getters advance, even if they are
from the same political party.
The new process gets its first test
Tuesday with special elections in
two Southern California state Senate
districts.
It is the first of two voter-approved
remedies for a system in which most
lawmakers are chosen from safe
Democratic or Republican districts.
California voters also have removed
redistricting authority from state
lawmakers, instead establishing an
independent citizens commission to
draw legislative and congressional
boundaries.
Both reforms are designed to help
moderate politicians win election,
theoretically reducing political
polarization.
The old system favored highly
conservative, small-government
Republicans and liberal, union-
backed Democrats who generally
vote the party line in Sacramento
and are poles apart on almost every
issue, ensuring that most attempts at
consensus quickly run aground. As
an example of how entrenched the
parties have become, just one seat
changed party hands out of 100 state
legislative contests last November.
Broader constituency
Political strategists say candidates
will have to appeal to a broader con-
stituency now that Republicans,
Democrats, independents and mem-
bers of minor parties are all choos-
ing from the same list of candidates.
“If you have two Democrats, I can
tell you which one is going to win
— the one who can reach
Republicans, the one who can reach
decline-to-state, the one who can
reach everybody,” said former
California lieutenant governor Abel
Maldonado, a Republican. “You’re
going to have to be fair and prag-
matic or you’re going to lose.“
As a state senator in 2009,
Maldonado insisted that lawmakers
put Proposition 14 on the ballot
before he would vote to raise $13
billion in temporary tax increases.
The measure, which had financial
backing from former Republican
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, won
with 54 percent voter support in last
June’s primary.
The new rules are having the
desired effect in Los Angeles
County’s 28th Senate District spe-
cial election to replace Democratic
Sen. Jenny Oropeza of Long Beach,
who died in office last year of com-
plications from a blood clot.
Former Assemblyman Ted Lieu,
D-Torrance, is the front-runner. He
faces not only another Democrat,
but also four Republicans and two
candidates who declared no party
preference. Lieu previously repre-
sented more than half the Senate dis-
trict’s voters in the Assembly.
Political affiliation
Lieu, who lost a Democratic pri-
mary bid for state attorney general
last year, sent political mailers to
likely voters regardless of their
political affiliation and hosted a tele-
phone “town hall” aimed at regis-
tered Republicans.
The top two candidates will head to
a runoff election if no one receives
more than 50 percent of the vote.
Former Democratic consultant
Darry Sragow said the primary is
likely to leave 28th Senate District
voters with a choice between two
Democrats in the special general
election, scheduled for April 19.
That’s because 48 percent of the dis-
trict’s voters are Democrats, 25 per-
cent Republicans and 20 percent
decline-to-state, said Sragow, who
teaches politics at the University of
Southern California. He also co-
edits the California Target Book,
which analyzes legislative and con-
gressional campaigns.
Harvey Hukari is trying to make
sure a Republican is in that mix.
Hukari is the political consultant for
Republican Bob Valentine, an attorney
from Manhattan Beach and the only
candidate besides Lieu who is spend-
ing significant money on the race.
Valentine spent nearly $55,000
through January, compared to more
than $228,000 by Lieu. But it was
enough for Valentine to mail fliers
targeted to likely Republican voters,
and to Democrats who live in house-
holds where someone else is regis-
tered Republican.
The new system will make cam-
paigns more expensive, analysts
said, because candidates will have to
reach voters of all persuasions and
potentially spend a lot of money in
both primary and general election
campaigns. Safe incumbents typi-
cally face little if any primary chal-
lenge now.

Feds release tiger attack documents
By Jason Dearen
and Marcus Wohlsen
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — A female
Siberian tiger killed in a hail of police
gunfire after fatally mauling a man at the
San Francisco Zoo on Christmas Day
2007 likely was provoked into leaping
and clawing out of its enclosure, a feder-
al investigator said in documents
obtained by the Associated Press.
The tiger named Tatiana killed 17-
year-old Carlos Sousa Jr. and injured his
friends, brothers Paul and Kulbir
Dhaliwal, leaving claw marks etched in
the asphalt and claw fragments in the
bushes outside its pen. Claw marks were
also discovered near the top of the enclo-
sure wall, which was lower than federal
safety standards dictate, showing that
the big cat was able
to get enough lever-
age to pull itself out.
“It appears the tiger
was able to jump from
the bottom of the dry
moat to the top of the
wall, and gain enough
purchase over the top
Kulbir Dhaliwal to pull herself out over
the moat wall,” wrote
Laurie Gage, a tiger expert who investigat-
ed the scene for the United States
Department of Agriculture’s Animal and
Plant Health Inspection Service, or APHIS,
which oversees the nation’s zoos.
“With my knowledge of tiger behavior
I cannot imagine a tiger trying to jump
out of its enclosure unless it was pro-
voked,” Gage wrote in the Dec. 27, 2007
draft of her report.
That statement was stricken from the
final version of the report because it was
“irrelevant from an Animal Welfare Act
enforcement standpoint,” said David
Sacks, a spokesman for APHIS. Whether
or not the tiger was provoked has long
been a point of contention.
After sitting with its prey for a short time,
Gage wrote that Tatiana likely followed the
Dhaliwals’ blood trail for about 300 yards
to where it resumed attacks. Photographs
show blood-smeared asphalt where the
tiger apparently dragged Sousa’s body.
“After a kill, I find it interesting the
tiger would leave a kill to go after some-
thing else unless there were a com-
pelling reason,” Gage wrote. “The tiger
passed exhibits with warthogs . which it
ignored as it followed (the blood trail?)
of the two brothers to the Terrace Cafe
outside the dining area.”

Marines define future role amid budget cuts

By Julie Watson
THE JASSOCIATED PRESS
CAMP PENDLETON — A
faster, high-tech seafaring tank for
U.S. Marines has hit countless set-
backs and cost overruns during the
past two decades, and now it is
one of the pricier items on the
Defense Department’s budget-cut-
ting list.
Even the Marine Corps’ top brass
agrees the estimated $12 billion
program has to go. But that doesn’t
mean the debate is over.
A group of Republican lawmak-
ers is questioning the Marine Corps
leadership’s sudden change of heart
over the Expeditionary Fighting
Vehicle. Generals have long said the
amphibious tank under develop-
ment had come to symbolize the
force’s very identity and represent-
ed the future of the Marine Corps,
which has been relegated largely to
landlocked wars over the past
decade.
The legislators want Marine
Corps leaders to explain the new
position they took last month in
backing Defense Secretary Robert
Gates when he announced that the
EFV should be cut.
Republicans fighting to save the
EFV say they want to know why
generals spent 20 years pushing for
the amphibious war machine only to
turn around over a span of months
and say it has become too costly.
“If this program was going well

Dunford, assistant Marine comman-

from $5 million apiece in 1995 to
$17 million now.
EFV supporters worry if it is
scrapped, it will inadvertently threat-

amphibious assault capabilities,
which sets them apart from the Army.
The Marines Corps is at a critical
crossroads with plans to drastically
reduce the elite force now leading

rendezvous with comet

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — After a long-distance
courtship, a NASA spacecraft is set to meet up
with its celestial sweetheart — a comet half
the size of Manhattan that had an encounter
with another spacecraft not long ago.
The rendezvous between Stardust and
comet Tempel 1 occurs on Valentine’s Day
some 210 million miles from Earth. Hurtling
at 24,000 mph, Stardust will fly within 125
miles of the potato-shaped comet, snapping
pictures along the way.
If successful, It’ll be the first time that sci-
entists will have before-and-after images of
Tempel 1, allowing them to observe any
changes on the uneven surface.
In 2005, Tempel 1 received a not-so-loving
visit from another NASA probe named Deep
Impact, which fired a copper bullet into the
comet on the Fourth of July that sparked cos-
mic fireworks and excavated a crater. The
crash hurled out so much dust and debris that
Deep Impact failed to see the manmade hole
even as it beamed back dazzling pictures of
other surface features. Scientists hope to get a
second chance with Stardust, which is expect-
ed to pass near the 2005 bull’s-eye.

Obama’s budget won’t be pain free

By Martin Crutsinger
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — President
Barack Obama will send Congress on
Monday a $3 trillion-plus budget for
2012 that promises $1.1 trillion in
deficit reduction over the next decade
by freezing many domestic programs
for five years, trimming military
spending and limiting tax deductions
for the wealthy.
Jacob Lew, the president’s budget
director, said Sunday that the new
spending plan for the 2012 would
disprove the notion that “we can do
this painlessly ... we are going to
make
choices.”

their own plans to trim $61 billion in Lew, appearing on CNN’s “State of

in the current budget year and then $1.1 trillion deficit-cutting goal fell
far short of the $4 trillion in deficit
cuts outlined by the president’s own
deficit commission in a plan unveiled
last December. That proposal would
attack the biggest causes of the
deficits — spending on the benefit
programs Medicare, Medicaid and
Social Security — and defense
spending.
Obama’s budget avoided the
painful choices put forward by the
commission on benefit programs.
Lew said it would be a mistake to say
the report did not have an impact on
the president’s proposals.
He cited a proposal to pay for
keeping doctors’ payments under
Medicare from being cut sharply.
Instead of borrowing the money to
prevent those cuts, the administration
was putting forward $62 billion in
savings in other areas to prevent
those cuts over the next two years,
Lew said.
In addition, the administration is

last year to limit tax deductions the
wealthy can get for charitable dona-

and state and local taxes, and using
those savings to pay for keeping the

Stabbing spree suspect: Retirement home hires dance partners

I’m the victim of a setup

NEW YORK — A man accused
of going on a 28-hour stabbing ram-
page through New York City shout-
ed that he was the victim of a
“setup” as he was led from a police
station Sunday.
Maksim Gelman was awaiting
arraignment in Brooklyn on charges
that he hacked three people to death,
then stalked the city for more than a
day, attacking innocent strangers,
hijacking vehicles and killing a
pedestrian with a car.
A small throng of Brooklyn resi-

police precinct for his trip to court.
The 23-year-old yelled back, curs-

bloody clothing
was seized as
evidence.

Terry Nagel — Burlingame game changer
W
hen Terry Nagel, (one of
the candidates for the San
Mateo County Board of
Supervisors ) defeated longtime incum-
bent Mary Janney for a seat on the
Burlingame City Council in 2003, it
was a game changer. The old guard
which had run Burlingame for years
was on its way out. Mike Coffey, and
then, Joe Galligan, decided not to run
for re-election. And Rosalie O’Mahony
who had served on the council for 20
years was defeated by Nagel ally
Michael Brownrigg in 2009.
But before Nagel entered politics she
once covered the Board of Supervisors
as a reporter for J. Hart Clinton’s for-
mer San Mateo Times. Her journalistic
career included a potpourri of assign-
ments: food editor of the San Francisco
Chronicle, assistant managing editor of
Forbes ASAP magazine and travel edi-
tor for several trade magazines includ-
ing ones you find in hotels. She also co-
authored a cookbook. After college, she
and a former boyfriend traveled
throughout Europe — 15 countries in
five months — to collect recipes of
regional specialties. The book was
never published, she and boyfriend split
up, but Terry says she makes many of
the dishes when time permits and is a
good cook. She and her husband, Jim
Nagel, also operated for 18 years a
small business out of their home — an
out-of-print book search.
Terry grew up in Manhasset, Long
Island. Her dad was an aerospace engi-
neer and was transferred to Redlands,
Calif. where Terry attended high school.
But it was in seventh grade when she
decided she wanted to be a journalist
and was features editor of her middle
school paper. She attended Pitzer
College for two years, then attended the
University of Washington in Seattle
where she majored in English.
She and Jim were married in 1977.
They have three grown children. After
she left the Times, Nagel managed two
online travel forums for Expedia.com,
then went to work as a communications
director for the Skoll Foundation. She is
currently working for Encore.org at

power outages. As a
result, PG&E spent more
than $2.4 million on cir-
cuit improvements. In 2003, she was
elected to the City Council. She has
since been re-elected for a second term.
Unlike the other major contenders in
the race, Nagel has never run for anoth-
er office. As a result, she may have less
name recognition outside of
Burlingame. However, she is well
known by her colleagues throughout the
county who have elected her to the San

She has been active in the heated dis-

one of the first to encourage community
involvement in the planning process.

Nagel entered the race late but has
managed to catch up. She expects it
will take $200,000 to win a seat on the
board and she told me she is well on
her way to raising that amount. She also

Hand in hand?
“T
he greatest challenge of the day is: how to
bring about a a revolution of the heart, a revo-
lution that has to begin with each one of us.”
— Dorothy Day.
Today is Valentine’s Day — the day to send some kind
of love message to our favorite people and to tell at least
one person close to us why he/she is special. Maybe we’ve
sent flowers or given a box of candy or a loving card.
In it’s commercially hyped up way, I hope that Feb. 14
reminds us of something besides the need of Hallmark to
enhance its bottom line. I hope the day not only arouses
thoughts of romantic love, but the kind of love that we des-
perately need to carry within our hearts that underlies a
loving orientation toward life and the world. In case we
need reminding, maybe some experts on the subject can
help fill the gap.
Erich Fromm, author of “The Art of Loving,” wrote:
“Love is not primarily a relationship to a specific person; it
is an attitude, an orientation of character which determines
the relationship of a person to the world as a whole, not
toward one object of love. The most fundamental type of
love, which underlies all types of love, is brotherly love.
By this I mean the sense of responsibility, care, respect,
knowledge of any other human being: the wish to further
his life ... . In brotherly love there is an experience of
union with all men, of
human solidarity, of
human at-one-ment.”
Just think of how many
ways we are affected
daily by the lack of this
important kind of love.
For instance, there’s the
person who suddenly
turns left in front of us
with nary a signal, the
parent who is so involved
in his/her self-centered
pursuits that the family
suffers, the politician
who ignores the needs of
the average American
because he is beholden to
his corporate buddies. They all reflect a lack of self-love
that underlies a healthy love of humankind. As Leo
Buscaglia wrote: “Love is always open arms. If you close
your arms about love, you will find you are holding only
yourself.”
When you look into the mirror, which of these messages
most closely resembles what you think about yourself? Is
it, “Roses are red, violets are blue — you are a creep and
inadequate, too?” Or is it, “Roses are red, violets are blue,
you’re quite OK and I appreciate you?” One more. “Roses
are red, violets are blue; I’m really the greatest and better
than you?” I hope it’s the one in the middle because if it’s
either of the other two, you have not been able to enjoy
healthy love of yourself. It’s too bad that so many of us
love ourselves so little that we attach negative connotations
to the concept of self-love. Too many equate love of self
with inflated ego and narcissism, but healthy self-love is
not that at all.
“We do not exist for ourselves (as the center of the uni-
verse) and it is only when we are fully convinced of this
fact that we begin to love ourselves properly and thus also
love others.” — Thomas Merton. In fact, without a healthy
self-respect, we cannot love others in a productive way or
enjoy a generous and loving heart, which underlies that
productive orientation toward life and the world. M. Scott
Peck wrote in “The Road Less Traveled” that love is “the
will to extend one’s self for the purpose of nurturing one’s
own or another’s spiritual growth ... . Not only do self love
and love of others go hand in hand, but ultimately, they are
indistinguishable.”
Many long years ago, someone wrote, “Love is patient
and kind; love is not jealous, or conceited, or proud; love is
not ill-mannered, or selfish, or irritable; love does not keep
a record of wrongs; love is not happy with evil; but happy
with the truth. Love never gives up; its faith, hope and
patience never fail. Love is eternal. There are faith, hope
and love — these three, but the greatest of these is love.”
— Corinthians, 13.
Is there any question that this world is in need of more
love? Is there any question that more and more of us are
becoming self-centered, egocentric, self-destructive and
obsessed with consuming and accumulating to the detri-
ment of ourselves, our families, communities, nation and
the world? Only when we can let go of our egocentrism,
rigidity and defensiveness and open our hearts and minds
can we begin to walk hand in hand.
Maybe every day should be Valentine’s Day, not in the
sense of bestowing gifts upon loved ones, but maybe to
remind ourselves of John Denver’s song: “Love is every-
where, I see it. You are all that you can be, go be it. Life is

starts to worry economists. Though food
costs are rising, the overall inflation rate
is expected to hold steady due to stag-
nant real estate prices.
So what’s the worry?
Fast-growing economies in places like
China, Brazil and India are growing too
fast -- at more than 5 percent a year. That
is resulting in higher prices for raw
materials and consumer goods, leading
to interest rate hikes that are already
sending stock markets plunging in those
countries. These are ominous develop-
ments for U.S. investors who have fat-
tened their portfolios by investing in
emerging markets and by buying shares
of domestic companies that do business
there.
Globalization long ago spread the rev-
enue and profits of the companies in the
Standard & Poor’s 500 stock index
beyond the shores of the United States.
Fifteen percent of the profits of companies
in the index are from emerging markets.
Growth overseas has helped lift the
S&P 500 up 23 percent over the past 12
months, pushing company revenues
higher despite the slow economic recov-
ery in the U.S. Companies in businesses
from trucks to toothpaste continue to
expand into the developing world.
Caterpillar Inc. made 12 percent of its
revenue from Latin America in 2009, a 4
percentage point jump since 2004.
Procter & Gamble, the company behind
household staples like Crest toothpaste
and Pampers diapers, made 32 percent
of its revenues from emerging markets
the same year, an 11 percentage point
jump since 2004. Ford Motors Co. sold
9.2 percent of all of its vehicles in South
America in 2009, a five percentage point
jump from five years earlier.
“Investors are not aware of how
important emerging markets are for the
valuation and earnings for so many U.S.
companies,” says Nicholas Colas, chief
market strategist at ConvergEx Group.
Caterpillar, for instance, jumped 84 per-
cent over the past 12 months largely due
to sales of construction equipment in
China and Brazil.
Investors have assumed that profits in
emerging markets will continue to grow
as millions join the global middle class.
But if central banks take drastic steps to
halt growth and tame inflation, then the
stocks of U.S. companies that do big
business there will fall.
“That is what I’m most fearful of right
now,” says Nick Kalivas, vice president
of research at MF Global, a financial
services firm in New York.
China said Tuesday that its central
bank was raising interest rates for the
second time in just over a month. Brazil
said Wednesday that it would slash $30
billion in spending to cut inflation that
jumped to 5.9 percent in 2010. India’s
central bank raised interest rates in late
January for the seventh time in little over
a year after its inflation rate hit 8.4 per-
cent. By raising interest rates, central
banks hope to slow borrowing and other
economic activity that can push prices
higher.
Inflation makes companies that sell
consumer goods compete with the basic
costs of living. Every increase in the
already high cost of food cuts directly
into the money that consumers in emerg-
ing markets have to spend on small lux-
uries or electronics. Hershey Co., for
instance, could find that the 12 percent
jump in the cost of cocoa this year will
cut into its expanding revenues in China
if consumers decide that they can’t
afford more expensive candy bars.

KB Home to lure buyers with energy bill savings

By Alex Veiga
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — Homebuilders
say one of the biggest advantages of
buying a newly built home is energy
efficiency. However, some of the ways
that builders make homes burn less cash
might not be as recognizable to buyers
as say, kitchen appliances, generous
closets and bathroom amenities. So
now some builders are boiling energy
efficiency down to something every
buyer understands: money.
This week, Los Angeles-based
builder KB Home will start giving
prospective homebuyers an estimate
upfront of what their monthly gas and
electric bill will be if they buy one of
the company’s homes. The estimate
label also will clearly show buyers
where the home ranks on an energy
efficiency scale. Houston-based
McGuyer Homebuilders Inc. earlier
this month began providing customers
with estimates of what the annual heat-
ing and cooling portion of their utility
bills will be on homes in the company’s
Dallas market. If buyers end up paying
more, McGuyer promises to reimburse
them for the difference in the first two
years.
The strategy comes as homebuilders
grapple with fierce competition from
existing homes on the market, particu-
larly sharply discounted foreclosed
properties. Sales of new homes, which
make up a fraction of overall home
sales, sank last year to the lowest level
since at least 1963. New homes, many
bristling with energy-efficient features,
often are priced at a premium to older
homes.
That can be a deal-breaker for buyers
expecting to see bargain-priced proper-
ties as the housing downturn enters its
fifth year.
But builders are betting that breaking
out utility bill savings in black and
white will persuade buyers to consider
a newly built home.
“It’s the biggest purchase decision
that people are making at that time in
their lives, and typically they have no
idea what it’s going to cost to truly own
the thing until they’ve been there for
several months,” said Jeffrey Mezger,
KB Home’s president and CEO. “It’s a
cost of homeownership that hasn’t been
out there.”

Verizon to carry
Sony Ericsson’s
PlayStation phone
By Peter Svensson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BARCELONA, Spain — The first “PlayStation phone” is

coming to Verizon Wireless in April, the CEO of phone maker
Sony Ericsson said Sunday.
The Xperia Play phone will have a big touch screen and a
pad that slides out to reveal control buttons similar to those on
a Sony PlayStation Portable. The phone marks a change in
strategy for Sony and a coup for Sony Ericsson, which has
been trying to get its phones back into the U.S. market.
The phone looks similar to the PSP Go, a version of the
PlayStation Portable released in 2009.
The Play phone will run Google Inc.’s Android operating
system and play modified PlayStation games that won’t run on
other phones. It’s the first time Sony has allowed its
PlayStation games to run on hardware not made by Sony. The
license isn’t exclusive to Sony Ericsson, so other phone mak-
ers could follow, but Sony Ericsson will have a substantial
head start.
Sony Ericsson CEO Bert Nordberg demonstrated the phone
in Barcelona, a day ahead of the opening of the Mobile World
Congress trade show there. He said he didn’t know what the
phone will cost.
Sony Ericsson is a joint venture of Sony Corp. of Japan and
LM Ericsson AB of Sweden. They merged their phone-making
businesses in 2001, and have faced calls to make phones that
take advantage of Sony’s strength in game consoles since then.
Recently, touch screen phones, especially Apple Inc.’s iPhone,
have become big game platforms in their own right, thanks to
their large screens and intuitive controls.
Verizon Wireless is the largest U.S. wireless carrier, but it
hasn’t carried Sony Ericsson phones for several years.

beat up
Lakers
By Kyle Hightower
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ORLANDO, Fla. — This was a
win that really meant something for
Orlando.
Dwight Howard had 31 points —
19 in the second half — and 13
rebounds as the Magic earned their
first victory over
a winning team
in more than a
month, beating
the Los Angeles
Lakers 89-75 on
Sunday.
“This was
kind of to prove
to ourselves that
Dwight Howard we can beat the
best teams in the
NBA,” Orlando forward Ryan
Anderson said. “It was a must-win
for us in a sense that we haven’t
been playing well against good
teams.”
In the nearly two months since
they reshaped their roster with a pair
of blockbuster trades, it’s been hard
to tell whether the new-look Magic
have the chops to make a deep play-
off run. Those questions still linger,
but a decisive win over the defend-
ing NBA champs was the starting
point they’ve been looking for.
“We haven’t played an entire 48
minutes in a long time,” Anderson
said. “Everybody really came to
play and we had everybody con-
tribute tonight. We played great
defense and just had it in our mind
to play hard the entire game.”
Jason Richardson chipped in 12
points for the Magic.
Kobe Bryant and Andrew Bynum
each scored 17 to lead the Lakers,
held to a season low in points.
Lamar Odom added 15 and Pau
Gasol 11.
“Offensively we were really stag-
nant. Defensively we could have
been a little better. But they had 89
points. It was a winnable game as far
as points go. But we didn’t put any
up,” Bynum said.

point home loss to New Orleans on

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. —
NASCAR is back — and so is
Juniormania.
Dale Earnhardt Jr. reclaimed the
spotlight in Daytona speedweeks,
winning pole position for the
Daytona 500 with a lap of 186.089
mph in qualifying Sunday.
It’s a boost for Earnhardt, who is
coming off a couple of disappoint-
ing seasons and spent part of the
past week facing questions about
the 10-year anniversary of his
father’s death at the track.
Still, Earnhardt was in an upbeat,
joking mood after winning the pole.
And while he understands the hype
his presence on the pole and his
family ties are bound to stir up this
week, he’ll mostly try to ignore it.
“I wouldn’t embrace that,”
Earnhardt said. “I’m here to race.

Hendrick Motor-sports teammate,

the second straight Daytona 500
front row sweep for Hendrick, who
put Mark Martin on the pole and
Earnhardt in the No. 2 spot last year.
The rest of the field will be set
after a pair of qualifying races
Thursday. Bill Elliott, Travis Kvapil
and Joe Nemechek also clinched
spots in the field, and Terry Labonte
is assured of a starting spot.

into the match. It was Martinez’s

An Earnhardt win would be even
bigger.
“I think that’s just kind of going to
build the hype and excitement for
next Sunday’s race,” Gordon said. “I
love to bring back a lot of these
memories about Dale and what he
brought to the sport, his legacy, and
it reminds me of a lot of the things I
learned from him and the good
times that we had. I think it’s very
cool to pay attention to that and to
celebrate it.”
But Earnhardt acknowledged that
qualifying results aren’t necessarily
a good predictor of success in the
race.
“It obviously gives you a good
idea that you’ve got a great car, but
anyone can win the race,” Earnhardt
said. “There’s guys that qualified
outside the top 20 that have got win-
ning cars.”

Joe Pavelski and Kent Huskins
scored for the Sharks, who have lost
two in a row after going 9-0-1 in
their previous 10 games. Pavelski
assisted on Huskins’ goal, while
Torrey Mitchell had two assists.
Antti Niemi, who had given up
four goals in his previous four starts,
made 19 saves for San Jose, which
outshot Florida 30-22.
Garrison gave the Panthers the
lead for good at 17:59 in the third.
His slap shot from the point beat
Niemi on the stick side after Florida
had the puck in the San Jose zone
for about a minute.
Higgins’ goal at 10:36 tied it at 2
after Pavelski put San Jose in front
early in the period. Higgins grabbed
a loose puck near the boards, skated
toward the net and slipped a back-
hand past Niemi.
Pavelski backhanded a rebound
from a sharp angle two minutes into
the third to make it 2-1 Sharks.
Vokoun had stopped Mitchell’s one-
timer off a feed from Dany Heatley
from behind the net.
Huskins opened the scoring 17:57
into the opening period with his sec-
ond goal of the season, both coming
in his last three games. He took a
feed from Pavelski from behind the
net and beat Vokoun with a slap shot
through traffic from the top of the
faceoff circle.

left in the second period. After

Woods has work to do after Dubai
By Michael Casey
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DUBAI, United Arab Emirates
— The flashes of brilliance at the
Dubai Desert Classic didn’t blind
Tiger Woods to the signs that his
new swing remains a work in
progress.
Even so, Woods has no doubt
about his future after stumbling in
the final round Sunday, shooting a
3-over 75 to finish seven shots
behind winner Alvaro Quiros in a
tie for 20th.
“I feel like I can still win golf
tournaments,” Woods said. “I’m not
that old. I’ve still got some years
ahead of me.”
Woods drew cheers Thursday
when he hit a 3-wood 250 yards to
the 18th green for an eagle. But he
had trouble finding the fairway for
much of the week in Dubai, his put-
ter ran hot and cold, and his once-
dangerous short game continued to
let him down.
Woods started the final round a
shot behind, but opened with two
bogeys on his first three holes. He
came back with birdies on Nos. 6
and 11, but followed that with a
bogeys on Nos. 12 and 14, and then
a double bogey on the last.
Woods, who won in Dubai in
2006 and 2008, has now gone 16
tournaments and 15 months without
a victory after previously winning
14 majors and 82 tournaments.

Woods after six holes. By the turn,
most fans had started shifting their
attention to the duel between
Quiros, Anders Hansen of Denmark
and James Kingston of South
Africa.
Woods still had a mathematical
chance as he came onto the 14th
when he was four shots back with
five holes to go.
But Woods hit his drive into the
rocks, a second into the bunker and
then missed an easy par put to set-
tle for bogey that ended his
chances. He finished with three
more pars and the double bogey on

A victory here would have drawn

This would have been his 12th

haps his biggest since the

NASCAR’s reaction to the sudden emer-
gence of two-car drafting suddenly
becoming the fast way to get around
Daytona.
With the drafting duos pushing speeds
past 200 mph, NASCAR officials
imposed restrictions the cars’ cooling
systems Sunday evening.
It’s an attempt to make it more diffi-
cult for one car to push another all the
way around the track because the push-
ing car’s engine might overheat; limiting
the drafting tandems could reduce
speeds.
Earnhardt said he liked the old style of
racing at Daytona, where drivers had to
zigzag through one big pack of cars —
after all, he was pretty good at it.
“I prefer the other style better,”
Earnhardt said. “But, I mean, it was fun
last night. I prefer having more choices
in my own destiny, I guess. Nothing
against what happened last night. I
thought it was an exciting race to be in,
exciting ending to watch. Completely
different than what we’re used to.”
Earnhardt, the 2004 Daytona 500 win-
ner, has fallen on hard times in recent
years. He hasn’t won a race since 2008.
But winning the pole at Daytona could
be an early indication that Hendrick
Motorsports’ offseason crew shake-up
might have the No. 88 team pointed in
the right direction.
Although Jimmie Johnson won his
fifth consecutive championship last sea-
son, team owner Rick Hendrick reshuf-
fled the deck for the rest of his teams.
Earnhardt was paired with Steve
Letarte, who had been Gordon’s crew
chief, and Earnhardt’s No. 88 team was
moved into the same race shop as
Johnson and crew chief Chad Knaus.
“I really enjoy the way the team
approaches their jobs and what their
goals are,” Earnhardt said. “I sort of like
the way they go about business, how
they conduct themselves. I’m enjoying
everything I’m seeing.”
Gordon got crew chief Alan
Gustafson, who had been paired with
Martin, and Martin teams with crew
chief Lance McGrew.
“The chemistry among the team and
just seeing their attitude and everything,
it’s been awesome,” Gordon said. “It’s
been that way since Rick made that
announcement, through the tests,
whether it be the Daytona test or the
short track test that we did. It’s all been
very positive. This is just another thing
that’s added to that, that chemistry and
momentum, which is great.”
It was a rare occasion when the winner
D.A.Points wasn’t even the biggest star.
Murray, famous for his role as assistant
greenskeeper Carl Spackler in “Caddyshack,” has become a sta-
ple at this celebrity-rich tournament over the last two decades
and once even tossed an elderly woman into the bunker.
He now gets his name on a plaque in the wall of pro-am
champions below the first tee at Pebble Beach.
“Pebble Beach may be the most iconic place in America to play
golf, and to win here, it’s just a dream come true,” said Points,
who finished at 15-under 271 and earned his first trip to the
Masters. Making it even better was having Murray at his side.
Points said at the start of the week that being in the chaotic
center of Murray and his antics kept him at ease. At his most
nervous moment, facing a 6-foot par putt on the 16th hole, he
turned the tables. As his partner stood over a long putt, Points
hollered at Murray, “The crowd would be really happy if you
could make that.”

MAGIC
Continued from page 11
victory against a team above .500 was
Jan. 8 at Dallas.
The Lakers’ loss snapped a four-game
winning streak. They conclude their
seven-game road trip with visits to
Charlotte on Monday and Cleveland on
Wednesday.
Howard scored his eighth straight
point to give the Magic a 71-60 edge
with just under 10 minutes to play.
The Lakers scored five straight, but the
Magic quickly responded with six con-
secutive points — including a pair of
baskets by Brandon Bass — to increase
their lead to 77-65 at the 7:48 mark.
Bass, who missed the previous six
games with a sprained left ankle, didn’t
start Sunday, but made his first appear-
ance since Jan. 31 with 7:56 left in the
first quarter after Anderson picked up his
second foul.
Howard was fouled on a putback dunk
by Gasol with 5:38 left and his free
throw made it 84-69. The Lakers closed
within 13, but never got closer.
The game was physical throughout,
and Howard left for good with 1:54 to
play with a gash under his right eye
courtesy of Odom during a fight for a
rebound.
The Lakers started fast, but struggled
to get uncontested shots in the second
half. They shot just 39 percent for the
game and 12 percent from 3-point range.
Bryant went 6 for 12 from the field in the
first half but finished 8 of 18.
The Magic weren’t much better from
beyond the arc (7 of 23), but dominated
on the boards with a 46-34 edge.
Bynum slowed down Howard some
early, but appeared to lose his wind in
the second half at times.

“I ’d love to volunteer, but I can’t
bear to see all those homeless ani-
mals.” If I had a dog biscuit every
time I heard that, Murray would be a happy
hound. Then, there’s this one: “I can’t go
there to adopt one dog. If I did, I’d end up
with 10!” We might cut you off at four of
five, but no need to worry about taking
home 10. As for the first question, here are
six suggestions for people who love the idea
of helping shelter animals, but find hands-
on roles too much to handle: 1). Sort and
price gently used items at our Pick of the
Litter secondhand store. 2). Take your own
pet to visit local schools as a PHS/SPCA
Education Department docent or visit hospi-
tals and libraries as a Pet Assisted Therapy
team. 3). Help at one of our special events.
Our Fashion Show is around the corner and
is followed by our Critter Classic golf tour-
nament. 4). If you don’t have the same emo-
tional connection to wildlife as you do with
dogs, cats and other pets, help feed baby
birds this spring in our Wildlife Rescue
Center. 5). Do you have a particular animal
expertise and a way with children? We can
use your skills at our Animal Camp. 6). If
you want to be part of a powerhouse, infor-
mal group which has raised more than a
million dollars for shelter animals, join the
PHS/SPCA Auxiliary. This social group
meets monthly and their gig is our annual
black tie gala, which raises more than
$150,000 each November for the shelter’s
neediest animals. These folks know how to
get donated items! Collectively, they solicit
about 300 items during the year for the
event’s silent auction; individually, they
work on filling a table at the event with their
friends. If the auxiliary sounds interesting,
please contact Lisa Van Buskirk at 650/340-

‘Just Go With It’tops box office
By David Germain
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — Adam Sandler and
Jennifer Aniston are America’s box-office
sweethearts, but Justin Bieber is the valentine
for teens.
The Valentine’s Day weekend was a close
one as Sandler and Aniston’s romantic come-
dy, “Just Go With It,” debuted with $31 mil-
lion, according to studio estimates Sunday.
That was just ahead of the concert docu-
mentary “Justin Bieber: Never Say Never,”
which opened a close second with $30.3 mil-
lion.
Sony’s “Just Go With It” and Paramount’s
“Never Say Never” were close enough that
the rankings could change when studios
release final numbers Monday.
The teen pop idol’s flick exceeded industry
expectations and nearly matched the $31.1
million opening of 2008’s “Hannah Montana
& Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds
Concert,” the record-holder for music-docu-
mentary debuts.
Another love story, Disney’s animated
adventure “Gnomeo & Juliet,” opened solidly
at No. 3 with $25.5 million. The movie fea-
tures the voices of Emily Blunt and James
McAvoy in a twist on “Romeo and Juliet” told
with garden gnomes.
The weekend’s other new wide release,
Focus Features’ ancient Roman saga “The
Eagle,” was No. 4 with $8.6 million. The film
stars Channing Tatum and Jamie Bell on a
quest into the wilds of 2nd century Scotland.
Though Hollywood generally did strong
business, revenues still were down compared
to the previous year’s for the 14th weekend in
a row.
Receipts came in at $149 million, off 27
percent from the same weekend a year ago,
when “Valentine’s Day,” “Percy Jackson &
the Olympians: The Lightning Thief” and
“The Wolfman” combined for debuts totaling
nearly $120 million, according to box-office
tracker Hollywood.com.
“We can’t catch a break at the box office
this year,” said Hollywood.com analyst Paul
Dergarabedian. “Ordinarily, this would be a
great weekend, but last year, the first quarter
was really strong.”
“Just Go With It” is a romantic farce featur-
ing Sandler and Aniston as pals posing as a

soon-to-be-divorced couple.
The movie maintained Sandler’s steady
record of box-office hits, pulling in the over-
25 crowd, while teen girls flocked to Bieber’s
film, which gave “Just Go for It” a run for the
No. 1 spot.
“It was a bit of a nail-biter,” said Rory
Bruer, Sony’s head of distribution. “But quite
frankly, what you could see is that both
movies were going to do business. Overall, it
was a pretty good movie-going weekend.”
While critics hated “Just Go With It,”
Bieber’s “Never Say Never” earned fairly
Monday • Feb. 14, 2011 17
good reviews. But audiences for music docu-
mentaries and concert films are tough to track,
and even some insiders at Paramount thought
the movie might do as little as $10 million
over opening weekend, just a third of what it
actually delivered.
Adding in ticket sales from preview screen-
ings Wednesday, the movie’s domestic total
stood at $31 million.
“I’ve clearly caught the Bieber fever, and I
don’t think they were looking for me. I don’t
think I was anywhere near their target audi-
ence,” said Don Harris, Paramount’s execu-
tive vice president for distribution. “I caught it
when the grosses started coming in.”
In limited release, Fox Searchlight’s come-
dy “Cedar Rapids” debuted well with
$310,789 in 15 theaters, for a healthy average
of $20,719 a cinema.
That compared to an average of $9,746 in
3,105 theaters for “Never Say Never,” $8,737
in 3,548 cinemas for “Just Go With It,” $8,517
in 2,994 locations for “Gnomeo & Juliet” and
$3,741 in 2,296 spots for “The Eagle.”
“Cedar Rapids” stars Ed Helms as a naove
insurance salesman who gets some life les-
sons at a business conference. The movie
gradually expands into nationwide release
over the next month.

Sacomano, an instructional aide, over-
sees the program.
The program falls under the state’s
disability services categorization, and
budgets for such services have been
slashed by up to 50 percent in recent
years.
“We can’t pay for assistants, so we get
a lot of student volunteers through the
work-study program,” said Sacomano.
“But we’ve been able to maintain all the
classes.”
Class attendees enjoy seeing the stu-
dent volunteers, along with fellow class-
mates. Many of them are severely dis-
abled, and leaving their homes is often
difficult. The classes offer not just phys-
ical strengthening, but a chance at social
interaction and friendship.

Matt Franklin, president of the Mid-

several factors including a 10.1 percent
jump for Recology’s collection services,
a 15 percent increase for 2010 services
including balancing out the contract
with Allied, a 2.5 percent drop in rev-
enue because of bin size reductions and
a 2.2 percent revenue decrease based on
an estimate of how many customers will
switch to smaller containers this year.
“This year will be the toughest of all
the rate increases because there are so
many factors,” Moura said.
He predicts rates flattening out and
stabilizing after 2012.
While San Carlos customers may be
surprised by the increase, the figure is
not the highest in San Mateo County.
Atherton residents are on the highest end
of the spectrum with a 38.9 percent pro-
posal and Menlo Park has the lowest at
9.4 percent. In between, the proposals
who has been working in the program
for a decade, and teaching classes for
half that time. “People leave their bags
and personal belongings out. We all get
along and look out for each other. It’s
very motivating, I think, to have friends
in the class. It makes you want to come
back.”
Many students, about half, do come
back, returning year after year to take
classes.
Jon Miller has been taking classes for
years. This year, he is enrolled in three
adapted P.E. courses, meaning he spends
at least an hour and a half each day, five
days a week, in the gym.
“It buoys not just your body, but your
spirit, too,” said Miller. “The program is
important, but the people that lead it are
really what make the program.”
Perhaps the biggest indicator of the
program’s popularity and success is the
fact that the courses are not advertised.
Students hear about the program by
word of mouth. People flock to the class-
es after they learn about them from
litter of any sort but at least with the
other it might biodegrade,” Tissier said.
Cost is also a factor. The ACC ques-
tioned the initial study of the plan and
estimated an increase of two to three
times the cost of food ware for vendors.
County staff counters the cost increase is
minimal, if any.
Based on a survey of four businesses,
county staff estimate vendors primarily
using disposal food ware will spend
$150 to $400 annual to comply with the
ordinance.
The ban will mimic those already in
place in Millbrae, Pacifica, South San
four earning about $25,000 to $40,000 a
year. Mid-Peninsula received 1,300
applications for the units.
“There is an incredible need,” he said.
Half of the project was funded using
city redevelopment funds leveraged to
get other money.
Franklin and Mohr are actively trying
to maintain some funding to help the
housing effort. They simply want equal-
ity in the reductions.
Other cities are beginning to prepare
paperwork and negotiations for proper-
ties.
South San Francisco, for example, is
adding a clause in RDA contracts that
the city would take charge of the agree-
ment should the agencies be eliminated.
The City Council also stepped up
closed session property negotiation.
Wednesday night’s special agenda had
28 properties to be discussed in a few
areas of the city like downtown, near the
Safeway on El Camino Real and the
northeastern part of town near Airport
Boulevard.
included 32.6 percent in Hillsborough,
23.3 percent in San Mateo, 29.5 percent
in Foster City and Redwood City’s 18
percent.
If a majority of San Carlos residents
protest the rate increase, it cannot pass.
The city has approximately 12,000
parcels so a successful protest requires
roughly more than 6,000 votes, Moura
said.
The San Carlos City Council meets 7
p.m. Monday, Feb. 14 at City Hall, 600

Courses are always full, and Young
often allows additional students to
attend. Her general conditioning class
currently has about 39 students, well
above the number allotted.
“You get one person from a doctor,
and then all the other patients want to
come,” she said. “If you go to most other
adapted P.E. programs, they’re full of
seniors, but here we get everyone. We
have quadriplegics, people with psycho-
logical disorders, everyone.”
Young enjoys the diversity, but cater-
ing to the distinct needs of each student
can be difficult. Each person utilizes the
services offered differently, and the
instructors work hard to develop individ-
ualized plans for their students.
The effort does not go unnoticed.

Redevelopment agencies were started
in 1945 under the California
Community Redevelopment Act to give
local government the tools to address
blight, degraded buildings and lack of
housing, according to the California
Redevelopment Association. Now
known as the Community
Redevelopment Law, it was revised in
1993 restricting the focus of activities to
occur in predominately urbanized area
on previously or currently developed
properties.
Redevelopment agencies are funded
through tax money but do not levy taxes.
When a run-down neighborhood is
revamped, the property values increase.
The increase in property tax collected,
called tax increment, then goes to the
respective redevelopment agency.
Today, there are 397 active redevelop-
ment agencies in California.

Egypt’s military rulers dissolve parliament

By Sarah El Deeb
and Maggie Michael
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CAIRO — Egypt’s military
rulers took sweeping action to dis-
mantle the autocratic legacy of for-
mer President Hosni Mubarak on
Sunday, dissolving parliament, sus-
pending the constitution and prom-
ising elections in moves cautiously
welcomed by pro-democracy pro-
testers.
The caretaker government,
backed by the military, said restor-
ing security after the 18-day upris-
ing that ousted Mubarak was a top
priority even as labor unrest reflect-
ed one of the many challenges of
steering the Arab world’s biggest
nation toward stability and democ-
racy.
Egypt’s upheaval was also splin-
tering into a host of smaller griev-
ances, the inevitable outcome of
emboldened citizens feeling free to
speak up, most for the first time.
They even included about 2,000
demonstrators hurled insults, call-
ing them “pigs” and “dogs.”
Egypt’s state news agency
announced banks would be closed
Monday due to strikes and again
Tuesday for a public holiday.
Dozens of employees protested
against alleged corruption at the
state television building, which
broadcast pro-Mubarak messages
during the massive demonstrations
against his rule.
The caretaker government met for
the first time, and employees
removed a huge frame photograph
of Mubarak from the meeting room
before they convened.
The crowds in the protest
encampment that became a symbol
of defiance against the government

marched to the Interior Ministry to camp at Tahrir Square, where The protesters have been pressing
the ruling military council, led by
Defense Minister Hussein Tantawi,
to immediately move forward with
the transition by appointing a presi-
dential council, dissolving parlia-
ment and releasing political prison-
ers. Thousands have remained in
Tahrir Square and some want to
keep up the pressure for immediate
steps, including repeal of repressive
emergency laws that give police
broad power.
As Egypt embarked on its new
path — one of great hope but also
deep uncertainty — the impact of its
historic revolt and an earlier upris-
ing in Tunisia was evident in a
region where democratic reform has
made few inroads.
Yemeni police clashed Sunday
with protesters seeking the ouster of
the U.S.-backed president, and
opposition groups planned a rally in
Bahrain on Monday. Demonstrators
have also pushed for change in
Jordan and Algeria, inspired by the
popular revolt centered in down-
town Cairo.

World brief
Tunisians landing by
boatload on Italian island
ROME — Hundreds of Tunisians landed
on a tiny Sicilian island by the boatload
Sunday, swelling the numbers of illegal
migrants arriving on Italian shores in less than
a week to well over 4,000. Sixteen boats had
arrived in less than 24 hours since Saturday
night, Palermo-based coast guard official
Claudia Viccica said. Many of the migrants
were crammed onto aging fishing boats or
motorized dinghies after reportedly paying
hundreds of euros to smugglers.
Given the choice,Swiss vote to keep their guns
By Frank Jordans
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
GENEVA — Neutral Switzerland is among
the best-armed nations in the world, with more
guns per capita than almost any other country
except the United States, Finland and Yemen.
At least 2.3 million weapons lie stashed in
basements, cupboards and lofts in this country
of less than 8 million people, according to the
Geneva-based Small Arms Survey.
On Sunday, Swiss voters made sure it stays
that way, rejecting a proposal to tighten the
peaceful Alpine nation’s relaxed firearms laws.
The decision was hailed as a victory by gun
enthusiasts, sports shooters and supporters of
Switzerland’s citizen soldier tradition.
“This is an important sign of confidence in
our soldiers,” said Pius Segmueller, a lawmak-
er with the Christian People’s Party and for-
mer commander of the Vatican’s Swiss Guard.
In Switzerland, where all able-bodied men
are required to perform military duty, many
choose to take their army-issued rifle home
with them even after completing military serv-
ice.
Gun clubs, too, remain a popular feature of
village life in rural parts of the country, with
children as young as 10 taking part in shooting
competitions.
Doctors, churches and women’s groups tried
and failed Sunday to require military-issued
firearms to be locked in secure army depots.
They also wanted the Swiss government to
establish a national gun registry and ban the
sale of fully automatic weapons and pump-
action rifles, arguing this would help cut inci-
dents of domestic violence and Switzerland’s
high rate of firearms suicides.
